- 0:04Speaker 1: to one Cardinals win.
- 0:05Speaker 2: They arrived the extra base hit for their first victory.
- 0:09Speaker 3: In the last take, cutting, cracking, making seals all over
- 0:14Speaker 3: the place, the huddle. Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin drew a
- 0:17Speaker 3: billion Arman broadcasting live on ninth Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin
- 0:22Speaker 3: nine to twenty, Milwaukee, ten seventy Madison, iHeartRadio app streaming
- 0:26Speaker 3: live on Facebook X and YouTube. We're going to get
- 0:29Speaker 3: to our current electric superhero the day. But I got
- 0:33Speaker 3: a freezing cold take for you guys. That was freezing
- 0:35Speaker 3: the minute it hit the socials.
- 0:37Speaker 4: Let's go.
- 0:37Speaker 5: I'm ready for it.
- 0:38Speaker 4: I love this.
- 0:39Speaker 3: I never heard of Dan Clark.
- 0:41Speaker 5: Oh God, I knew exactly where you.
- 0:42Speaker 3: Saw this, didn't you. He was miffed, I mean, boomer
- 0:48Speaker 3: take alert. At least he understood it. Jackson Churio is
- 0:53Speaker 3: not a left handant hitter. He never has been yet
- 0:55Speaker 3: last night he batted left handed in the ninth Playing
- 0:59Speaker 3: MLB should ever be trivial. Many guys bust their asses
- 1:02Speaker 3: for years and never get the opportunity. Terrible.
- 1:04Speaker 4: Look who's this?
- 1:05Speaker 3: That said? The Clark where I've never heard of, But
- 1:09Speaker 3: he's got like seventy thousand X followers and Clark. Alright,
- 1:12Speaker 3: but this was when it's a take like Chario's batting
- 1:17Speaker 3: against a position player, a guy used to play for
- 1:20Speaker 3: the Milkmen in the ninth inning of a blowout game
- 1:24Speaker 3: was a ten to two.
- 1:25Speaker 6: It's a ten to two game in which it's the
- 1:27Speaker 6: ninth the eighteenth inning of a double header. Yes, correct, yes, okay,
- 1:31Speaker 6: just wanted to make sure Churio goes up left handed
- 1:33Speaker 6: on a dare wearing the left handed helmet, you know,
- 1:37Speaker 6: different helmet that he usually goes up and it never
- 1:40Speaker 6: like the Brewers hitting coaches said they've never even seen
- 1:43Speaker 6: him swing left handed.
- 1:44Speaker 3: And he hits like an he gets an ephis pitch
- 1:47Speaker 3: that he hits all the way to just like two
- 1:49Speaker 3: steps in front of the warning track and center.
- 1:51Speaker 6: One of the more impressive athletic things I think I've seen.
- 1:54Speaker 3: This guy is dumping on it, like come on.
- 1:57Speaker 1: I would argue what he did was less cud of
- 2:00Speaker 1: what's the word he said, novelty or what's the word
- 2:02Speaker 1: he said, ridiculous said trivial, trivial. What he did was
- 2:05Speaker 1: less trivial than what the opposing team did, which is
- 2:09Speaker 1: throwing a position player to throw ephis pitches at thirty
- 2:11Speaker 1: nine miles an hour's jacenturial put up a better at
- 2:14Speaker 1: pat than what.
- 2:15Speaker 2: Most people do, and they're a strong hand.
- 2:18Speaker 1: And also, how do guys ever learn to be Ambadextrius
- 2:21Speaker 1: and be a switch hitter. You have to try you
- 2:25Speaker 1: have to try it something. Now I'm not arguing that's
- 2:26Speaker 1: what Jackson's doing. I understand it, but you do have
- 2:29Speaker 1: to try it sometime. I mean, so, yeah, this is
- 2:33Speaker 1: kind of silly. The quick Google search for Dan Clark
- 2:35Speaker 1: baseball writer is hard. A lot of people on Reddit
- 2:38Speaker 1: calling a fake reporter, so I'm not really sure what
- 2:40Speaker 1: the deal is. Okay, so he had a hot take,
- 2:42Speaker 1: rage bait whatever. I mean, I think it's sort of silly,
- 2:45Speaker 1: but that's what it was.
- 2:47Speaker 6: I did enjoy, though, and I guess I was more
- 2:49Speaker 6: surprised that there were certain folks that were somewhat defending
- 2:52Speaker 6: his statement on online or in the comments section with
- 2:57Speaker 6: just saying like, well, this is this is just rude
- 2:59Speaker 6: disrespect or the question that something called sal Maurinio a
- 3:04Speaker 6: coach forty plus years a high performance training okay, forty
- 3:08Speaker 6: plus years, and he's probably been watching it for even longer.
- 3:12Speaker 6: Is there any other sport these days that trivializes itself
- 3:16Speaker 6: this way as much as baseball? In a blowout game,
- 3:18Speaker 6: an NBA player took free throws with his offhand, would
- 3:21Speaker 6: we consider him having fun or disrespectful? If in a
- 3:25Speaker 6: blowout football game at any level a non quarterback played quarterback,
- 3:28Speaker 6: well he is, he is one of the best players
- 3:31Speaker 6: on the team. Him hitting from the other side of
- 3:34Speaker 6: the coin would be like Greg Odin I think maybe
- 3:37Speaker 6: in the in college basketball, remember when he was shooting
- 3:40Speaker 6: free throws left handed because he broke his hand.
- 3:42Speaker 1: You have to find different ways to be able to
- 3:44Speaker 1: have some fun, if to entertain yourself. Did anyone say
- 3:46Speaker 1: this when Jordan shot a close eyed free throw? You remember
- 3:50Speaker 1: that he shot a free throw his eyes closed because
- 3:52Speaker 1: someone told me? Did any want to say this when
- 3:54Speaker 1: Larry Bird played a whole game left handed?
- 3:56Speaker 5: I was just gonna say, did Larry Bird do this?
- 3:58Speaker 3: He did in a victory the whole game left hand,
- 4:00Speaker 3: and they put up just for fun.
- 4:03Speaker 1: But I'm not saying like, and you would never argue
- 4:06Speaker 1: those guys disrespected the game, right, So.
- 4:10Speaker 5: Larry Bird was trying to do it to disrespect someone well, right, right,
- 4:13Speaker 5: and he did it well.
- 4:14Speaker 1: Now I would say, like if this was you know,
- 4:18Speaker 1: this is clearly in a point of the game where
- 4:19Speaker 1: both sides kind of threw the towel.
- 4:21Speaker 3: At so was not a switch hitter or never has been.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Well, Brian Torres has never been a pitcher, and now
- 4:25Speaker 1: he's now he's pitching, And who's the person he's disrespecting
- 4:30Speaker 1: in the ending of a doubleheader, I mean of eighteenth
- 4:33Speaker 1: inning of a day when you played a doubleheader.
- 4:35Speaker 4: Come on.
- 4:35Speaker 6: The only person that I could have seen, and I
- 4:38Speaker 6: guess maybe someone get this, uh feel some sort of
- 4:41Speaker 6: way would be Ali Marmel and the Cardinals if they did.
- 4:44Speaker 6: But they're the ones that threw the through a a
- 4:46Speaker 6: position player out on the mound, and I think, if
- 4:48Speaker 6: I remember correctly, they showed a shot into the Cardinals
- 4:51Speaker 6: dugout and nobody was reacting with without a laugh like
- 4:55Speaker 6: it did also seem like they were enjoying the spectacle
- 4:57Speaker 6: that was happening.
- 4:58Speaker 1: You do that on non but you do that intentionally
- 5:01Speaker 1: to say, Okay, we're just trying to get through innings.
- 5:04Speaker 1: This game's over, We're not going to use our pictures.
- 5:07Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean it's just to.
- 5:09Speaker 2: Me, like it's I hate to say it, it's just
- 5:12Speaker 2: obvious rage bait.
- 5:14Speaker 5: How dare he?
- 5:15Speaker 3: How dare he? Like, uh, just trash the the the
- 5:19Speaker 3: integrity of the game. When Brian Torus threw a thirty
- 5:22Speaker 3: four point nine mile an hour pitch.
- 5:24Speaker 6: But I think the first one didn't pick up, didn't
- 5:26Speaker 6: register on stat.
- 5:28Speaker 3: And Chario the exit veila on that was ninety eight.
- 5:31Speaker 5: He generated all of the power it.
- 5:33Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, wouldn't it be more disrespectful to try
- 5:36Speaker 1: and load up your stats and stat pad? I mean,
- 5:39Speaker 1: like the couple twenty three runs, isn't that if Tony
- 5:42Speaker 1: LaRussa would have been mad about that?
- 5:44Speaker 6: Maybe I did see somebody post a picture of Larusa
- 5:47Speaker 6: in the dugout and just saying this is Dan Clark.
- 5:50Speaker 6: I don't even know I could I could see maybe
- 5:52Speaker 6: Larusa just having a burner at what eighty one years old,
- 5:56Speaker 6: just fire something in there and'd be be able to
- 5:59Speaker 6: talk about these it's in the crowd, Yeah, I'll say
- 6:01Speaker 6: it is.
- 6:01Speaker 5: Idiots don't get it.
- 6:02Speaker 1: If Jackson Tario chose to call himself a switch hitter
- 6:05Speaker 1: and batted a lot of switch hitters are better from
- 6:07Speaker 1: one side right.
- 6:08Speaker 4: So a lot of guys that have done it really
- 6:10Speaker 4: shouldn't have done it.
- 6:10Speaker 1: But my point is, if Jackson Tario said I'm gonna
- 6:14Speaker 1: be a switch hitter and still batted let's say two
- 6:16Speaker 1: twenty or two thirty from his off hand, would anyone
- 6:20Speaker 1: say he's disrespecting the game. We don't know what he
- 6:22Speaker 1: could do if he pat left handed every game. I
- 6:25Speaker 1: bet if Jackson Tario batted left handed every every time
- 6:29Speaker 1: against a righty, he could have a decent like two
- 6:32Speaker 1: twenty two thirty. I'm not saying great, but he would
- 6:35Speaker 1: be respectable. I mean, based on what he did there.
- 6:38Speaker 1: Did anyone say brooks Keishnik disrespected the game when he
- 6:41Speaker 1: tried to hit and pitch. I mean no, it's like, oh,
- 6:45Speaker 1: maybe this isn't no run, Yeah exactly. I mean so,
- 6:49Speaker 1: I don't know. I think it's obvious rage bait. It's
- 6:52Speaker 1: pretty silly, and this idea that anybody can't have fun
- 6:56Speaker 1: playing the game has still kind of consistently pervaded it here.
- 7:00Speaker 1: This is an old baseball thing that people don't want
- 7:03Speaker 1: anyone to ever enjoy or joke around or be somewhat
- 7:07Speaker 1: frivolous in the process, and I don't get it, and
- 7:10Speaker 1: I don't think I ever will.
- 7:12Speaker 3: You know, are we engagement to rage, baiting, engagement farming there?
- 7:16Speaker 3: What are we doing?
- 7:17Speaker 1: Like?
- 7:17Speaker 3: Come on?
- 7:18Speaker 5: Think so?
- 7:19Speaker 6: Yes, I think my man does have seventy thousand followers,
- 7:22Speaker 6: but I think he's following sixty five thousand, so he's
- 7:24Speaker 6: definitely trying to make sure that he getting into every
- 7:27Speaker 6: one of those algorithms.
- 7:28Speaker 2: A lot of questionable tactics there social media at.
- 7:31Speaker 6: Techs, but very interesting and I appreciate, I appreciate. Uh
- 7:35Speaker 6: really think do you you can't really think about that?
- 7:38Speaker 6: I just there are certain people, though Drew, that think
- 7:40Speaker 6: the sky's green.
- 7:42Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, like I.
- 7:43Speaker 6: Mean, there are certain people that live on a totally
- 7:46Speaker 6: different stratosphere of the sports world.
- 7:49Speaker 5: But I can't fathom that one being being serious. But again,
- 7:53Speaker 5: Tony Lewisa did exist out of.
- 7:56Speaker 2: The sports world.
- 7:57Speaker 6: The one that takes the unwritten rules to a different
- 8:00Speaker 6: level is always baseball. Like if anybody would if sport
- 8:04Speaker 6: this would feel disrespected. I think some baseball player could
- 8:08Speaker 6: could feel some sort of way or tell themselves that
- 8:11Speaker 6: they're that frustrated or angry about something, which would be
- 8:14Speaker 6: more fun.
- 8:14Speaker 1: Totally Derek and Madison and the nickolaylat dot com talking
- 8:18Speaker 1: text line. My eleven year old son has been tinkering
- 8:20Speaker 1: with switch hitting in the Little League.
- 8:22Speaker 2: He's been super nervous to.
- 8:23Speaker 1: Try it, though after Churio's ad bat my son is
- 8:25Speaker 1: ready to do it in a game tonight. So he
- 8:26Speaker 1: inspired a kid to try something new. You know what
- 8:29Speaker 1: it's all about.
- 8:30Speaker 2: I mean, man, let us know how that swing goes.
- 8:33Speaker 6: Yeah, and also, don't let some other coat some some
- 8:36Speaker 6: other dad travel ball Dad, not let him go up
- 8:38Speaker 6: there and hack.
- 8:39Speaker 1: Yeah. Now, I can only imagine what this guy's opinions
- 8:41Speaker 1: on banana ball is.
- 8:42Speaker 2: Billy, when guys get points for trick.
- 8:44Speaker 6: Plays, must we got to think of ball four sprints

- 8:56Speaker 6: of the teams. One of the teams does have an
- 8:57Speaker 6: elephant pitch.

- 9:30Speaker 6: A group of friends broke down the door ran into
- 9:32Speaker 6: a burning home on Rodney Drive in the town of
- 9:35Speaker 6: load Ee, Wisconsin, on the fourth of July, helping people
- 9:37Speaker 6: inside escape while before firefighters even arrived. Loadie Fire was
- 9:42Speaker 6: dispatched around ten forty five Saturday night to a home
- 9:45Speaker 6: which had caught fire from what the department described as
- 9:48Speaker 6: heavy use of fireworks in the area. Crews were aware
- 9:51Speaker 6: of two people that could be inside when the call
- 9:53Speaker 6: came in. A group of nineteen and twenty year olds
- 9:55Speaker 6: had already entered the home helped get the occupants out
- 9:59Speaker 6: unharmed before four firefighters arrived. The group said in an
- 10:03Speaker 6: interview that they had thought that it was just a bonfire.

- 10:10Speaker 6: house at the back of the house was already red
- 10:12Speaker 6: and smoky. Were like, that is not a bonfire. The

- 10:34Speaker 6: crews and other departments that helped respond, spent, particularly on
- 10:37Speaker 6: a hot night, to rotate personnel and work together to
- 10:39Speaker 6: extinguish the fire. The residents of the home have been
- 10:43Speaker 6: displaced but the home as the home is not livable
- 10:45Speaker 6: due to the damage, but family members are caring for them.
- 10:47Speaker 6: At this time, there are fundraising efforts up. Jim, the homeowner,

- 12:38Speaker 6: and an entire village generator.
- 12:40Speaker 1: But maybe, but maybe thirty years later they named the
- 12:42Speaker 1: street after you and then add some real you know,
- 12:44Speaker 1: the real hero stuff right there, real hero stuff.
- 12:47Speaker 2: Think about that, and we don't need Alex and Cambria.
- 12:49Speaker 1: That's nineteen twenty year olds where the probably the ones
- 12:51Speaker 1: start the come on man, they don't need that Alex.
- 12:54Speaker 1: Come on man, these guys were some heroes. Don't give
- 12:57Speaker 1: us that.
- 12:57Speaker 5: So if they were, then they still were the ones
- 12:59Speaker 5: that got them out.
- 13:00Speaker 3: That's a good point, all right. So Hunter's going to
- 13:03Speaker 3: join us about ten minutes. We're going to talk to
- 13:05Speaker 3: him about, uh, you know, the Brewers obviously that game
- 13:08Speaker 3: that Logan Henderson tonight as they try to go four
- 13:11Speaker 3: and one in a five gamer against the Cardinals. We'll
- 13:14Speaker 3: also talk to him about how we kicked the Hornets
- 13:16Speaker 3: by suggesting that the Brewers might trade South Freelick, like
- 13:19Speaker 3: they could consider it actually get the top pitcher that
- 13:23Speaker 3: they could get, and he's not the best player in
- 13:25Speaker 3: the deal, Like that's.
- 13:27Speaker 5: The that's the other part that might be tough.
- 13:28Speaker 3: He might not be the most people like him. Uh.
- 13:32Speaker 3: But before we dive into that, there's the whole Lebron
- 13:34Speaker 3: thing that I'm sure ESPN is fanning that flame of
- 13:37Speaker 3: where's Lebron gonna go?
- 13:38Speaker 4: What's going to do?
- 13:39Speaker 6: Which they got there at Wimbledon this whole time they
- 13:42Speaker 6: talking Lebron, But like, is he gonna go to Philly
- 13:45Speaker 6: makes the most sense to me? Or Cleveland? With Donovan
- 13:47Speaker 6: Mitchell now wrapped up. The Golden State thing is interesting.
- 13:51Speaker 6: So Steph Curry got interviewed yesterday. I had a golf tournament.
- 13:55Speaker 6: Did you see that. I saw a little bit of it.
- 13:57Speaker 3: He Steph's quote was, they said possibility of playing with
- 14:01Speaker 3: Lebron and the Warriors stuff. Said I'd say more so,
- 14:04Speaker 3: I'm interested to just play golf with Lebron. We'll handle
- 14:06Speaker 3: the basketball stuff, but I want to see the golf.
- 14:08Speaker 3: Lebron free agent. He's out here really grinding on the game.
- 14:12Speaker 3: But I'm sure we obviously would love to play together.
- 14:14Speaker 3: I mean, hopefully it happens. But he deserved the opportunity
- 14:17Speaker 3: in the right to take his time with this decision.
- 14:19Speaker 5: The amount of golf that those two would play while
- 14:21Speaker 5: traveling the NBA's globe for one.
- 14:24Speaker 3: To two and that was one of the things that
- 14:25Speaker 3: made people say that he was going to sign with
- 14:27Speaker 3: Cleveland because he apparently he's an Akron and he and
- 14:31Speaker 3: Bronnie went to a golf galaxy or something buying a
- 14:36Speaker 3: driver or something like that, and then I guess people
- 14:39Speaker 3: started to, you know, call their friend, Lebron's here and
- 14:42Speaker 3: Bronnie's here, and so they started. He wouldn't do pictures
- 14:44Speaker 3: with people, but he did with the staff of the
- 14:46Speaker 3: Sure and then I heard that when it came time
- 14:49Speaker 3: like Bronni got a three wood or something like that.
- 14:51Speaker 3: And then then it's like, dad, is this one gonna work?
- 14:55Speaker 3: It came time to like who's find the family kid?
- 14:57Speaker 3: And Lebron said, uh, he's this. I'm sick of carrying
- 15:01Speaker 3: his ass. He's got that.
- 15:04Speaker 5: I got a job.
- 15:07Speaker 3: Carry as man.
- 15:08Speaker 1: Is this let him pick up a check? Is this
- 15:10Speaker 1: better than the decision? I mean the original decision. I
- 15:14Speaker 1: don't know that there as many teams. Rich Paul said
- 15:16Speaker 1: there's ten to twelve teams involved or if they could well.
- 15:18Speaker 6: And there was also three finalists two days ago. Then
- 15:22Speaker 6: yesterday Sham's had five finalists.
- 15:25Speaker 5: I'm sorry not going to Minnesota.
- 15:26Speaker 2: You don't think that. You don't think so.
- 15:28Speaker 6: I think the Philly one would be, as a Lebron fan,
- 15:30Speaker 6: my my most intriguing one.
- 15:32Speaker 3: That's the most intriguing team to go to. But Cleveland
- 15:35Speaker 3: has the poll that he can finish there.
- 15:36Speaker 5: Cleveland would have the poll being.
- 15:39Speaker 1: He wants to try out another team, see how many
- 15:42Speaker 1: played with for a team he hadn't played for yet,
- 15:44Speaker 1: just to do it.
- 15:45Speaker 6: I don't know that that's exactly it, but I do
- 15:47Speaker 6: know that the Philly fan base is kind of starving
- 15:49Speaker 6: for the chance to have a title for the for
- 15:52Speaker 6: the sixth nights. So if he likewhere else he would be,
- 15:55Speaker 6: he could be somewhat of a hero there. He is
- 15:57Speaker 6: always going to be a hero in in Cleveland, right like,
- 16:01Speaker 6: as he should be.
- 16:02Speaker 2: Miami.
- 16:04Speaker 6: He's another star, right like, He's just another star that's
- 16:06Speaker 6: been through there, and and him and pat Riley had
- 16:09Speaker 6: some real.
- 16:09Speaker 5: Wax he built up.
- 16:10Speaker 4: He went back.
- 16:11Speaker 6: He went back after Dan Gilbert put that one page
- 16:15Speaker 6: letter out, after he chose Miami at the direction, So
- 16:19Speaker 6: he will go back even if he feels like you
- 16:21Speaker 6: have You have clearly done where he wants.
- 16:24Speaker 3: To live and where he wants to what lifestyle he wants.
- 16:27Speaker 3: But I think Philly is very intriguing. But if you're
- 16:29Speaker 3: talking about last standpoint, for me, it's like Philly and
- 16:31Speaker 3: then everybody else.
- 16:32Speaker 5: I'm with you.
- 16:33Speaker 6: On the basketball side, Cleveland would be good as long
- 16:36Speaker 6: as I also then couldn't reroute James Harden, Like if
- 16:38Speaker 6: I'm Lebron, I'm saying I don't want to play with him,
- 16:41Speaker 6: I'll play.
- 16:41Speaker 4: With everyone else.
- 16:41Speaker 1: Well, not re signed obviously extend hard, but Harden's like
- 16:45Speaker 1: reinvented himself. Now he passes and stuff.
- 16:48Speaker 6: He does give the ball up, especially in you know,
- 16:50Speaker 6: clutch playoff moments.
- 16:51Speaker 5: He don't want to talk, you know.
- 16:52Speaker 1: You know, the original rumor years and years ago was
- 16:55Speaker 1: always New York. Remember, people go to Knicks games with
- 16:57Speaker 1: the Lebron jersey and they just want the title. So
- 16:59Speaker 1: maybe a jump on a ring chase, I don't know.
- 17:02Speaker 1: I mean, that might not be impossible if we're looking
- 17:04Speaker 1: for a dark, dark dark horse.
- 17:06Speaker 5: You know.
- 17:06Speaker 3: No, I would say he's got a better chance of
- 17:09Speaker 3: going back to the Lakers than he does of going
- 17:10Speaker 3: to the next he want.
- 17:11Speaker 6: I agree he wanted to go to the next He
- 17:14Speaker 6: definitely won't do it now. Definitely can't now because they've
- 17:16Speaker 6: already won without him. One of those teams will he
- 17:19Speaker 6: get because I firmly believe people have their belief about Lebron,
- 17:23Speaker 6: Like you're not changing your opinion about Lebron James. Would
- 17:26Speaker 6: any of those have people trying to discredit him for
- 17:30Speaker 6: as a ring chaser because almost everybody does it at
- 17:32Speaker 6: some particular point. I mean, but none of those teams
- 17:35Speaker 6: won the title. I mean a couple of them were
- 17:36Speaker 6: first and second round exits. One of them was a
- 17:39Speaker 6: playing team. The Warriors lost in the playing game last year,
- 17:42Speaker 6: so you definitely can't call that a ring chase.
- 17:43Speaker 1: Well, I was what about Dallas. I mean, Dallas has
- 17:46Speaker 1: got a young, you know, young player. Mark Cuban's not
- 17:49Speaker 1: happy down there. He's getting ousted by management or getting
- 17:52Speaker 1: frozen out.
- 17:52Speaker 3: He thinks it's what happens when you sell a controlling.
- 17:55Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you didn't have to sell Mark, isn't that crazy, Drew, Yeah,
- 17:58Speaker 1: you didn't have to do it.
- 17:59Speaker 6: And they're not letting me run after I gave up control,
- 18:01Speaker 6: like after I sold him and made a billion dollars.
- 18:04Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 18:04Speaker 6: I don't know where we got into this thought that
- 18:06Speaker 6: you sell the team, you get the money, then you
- 18:08Speaker 6: still get to run it.
- 18:09Speaker 3: Totally bizarre.
- 18:10Speaker 1: It just goes to show you, you know, it can
- 18:12Speaker 1: be a money investment for some, but for some it's
- 18:14Speaker 1: still about having a toy to play with. And that
- 18:17Speaker 1: was what Mark always liked about being the Dallas Mavericks owner.
- 18:20Speaker 1: And then he sold and he's like, I'll still be involved.
- 18:22Speaker 1: Now now you're getting pushed out, Now you're upset. He's
- 18:24Speaker 1: gonna probably ride by another team. Now, it's just kind
- 18:27Speaker 1: of funny to see all that happen and go down
- 18:29Speaker 1: the road. I don't think he's stands up Anetian Billy
- 18:31Speaker 1: next time it goes to VAT.
- 18:32Speaker 5: I don't think so either. No, I probably got it
- 18:34Speaker 5: the under on that one.
- 18:35Speaker 3: Right when we come back, Hunter Bombguard's gonna join the party.
- 18:39Speaker 3: He is gonna let us. He's gonna let us know
- 18:42Speaker 3: about the nuts and bolts. But then we'll ask him
- 18:44Speaker 3: the South free of the questions. See what Hunter has
- 18:46Speaker 3: to say about that.
- 18:47Speaker 5: That's next.
- 18:48Speaker 3: You're in the huddle, Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. It's a
- 18:57Speaker 3: Thursday in the good Land. You're in the huddle, Fox
- 18:59Speaker 3: Sports Radio, Wisconsin. Drew, Billy and Arman were awaiting the
- 19:03Speaker 3: arrival of our pal Hunter Bombguart, who has popped up
- 19:06Speaker 3: on our stream right there as we speak.
- 19:09Speaker 4: Hello Hunter, Good morning guys. How are you?
- 19:12Speaker 5: We're great?
- 19:13Speaker 3: I don't know, we're rolling through. I don't know if
- 19:15Speaker 3: you were aware when you woke up and saw social media.
- 19:17Speaker 3: We kind of kicked a hornet's nest because I was
- 19:20Speaker 3: talking about what it would take and what the Birds
- 19:22Speaker 3: would have to package to get a top line starter
- 19:24Speaker 3: like Tark Skubel or somebody like that. And I threw
- 19:26Speaker 3: self Relick's name in the mix and Hunter, you would
- 19:29Speaker 3: have thought I would had suggested that they stop selling
- 19:31Speaker 3: beer at American Family Field.
- 19:34Speaker 7: Yeah, sal is a fan favorite, There's no doubt about that.
- 19:38Speaker 7: Jake Bauers recently called him the heartbeat of the team,
- 19:41Speaker 7: So I think the team also kind of is on
- 19:44Speaker 7: the wavelength of the fans on that one.
- 19:46Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm old enough to remember when Pat Murphy said,
- 19:48Speaker 3: you'll send me down before I send Blake don hmm.
- 19:53Speaker 7: Things change and change things changed quickly in sports. Major
- 19:56Speaker 7: League Baseball is no exception to that. So yeah, I mean,
- 20:00Speaker 7: look when Luis Lara comes up and does what he
- 20:02Speaker 7: does and plays right field last night, Yeah, you start
- 20:05Speaker 7: to think about those things.
- 20:06Speaker 3: And it wasn't in any way a slight on sell.
- 20:08Speaker 3: And I'm not saying that they should get rid of
- 20:10Speaker 3: the guy and then he's a stiff or anything. I'm
- 20:12Speaker 3: saying that to get something, you got to give something.
- 20:14Speaker 3: And if you give him, it's a gold glove guy
- 20:16Speaker 3: who's an established major league player. That would assuaged any
- 20:20Speaker 3: fan base that thinks they're selling, you know, and getting
- 20:23Speaker 3: ripped off.
- 20:23Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying.
- 20:25Speaker 7: Yeah, if you're going to get a guy like schoobl
- 20:27Speaker 7: the Tigers are going to want guys who they can
- 20:29Speaker 7: build around in the future. They're not going to necessarily
- 20:32Speaker 7: want a guy in an expiring deal. They're not looking
- 20:34Speaker 7: to win this year. If that, if they're trading away Schooble,
- 20:37Speaker 7: they're not looking to win this year. They're looking to
- 20:39Speaker 7: win in the future. And so they already have you know,
- 20:42Speaker 7: a decent amount of talent over there. They had their
- 20:46Speaker 7: big prospect come up earlier this season, so they are
- 20:49Speaker 7: looking to add probably in the younger department.
- 20:52Speaker 4: Salfreelak would fit that.
- 20:53Speaker 7: Not that he's you know, as young as maybe a
- 20:55Speaker 7: Cheerio or a Lara, but he's definitely in the beginning
- 20:59Speaker 7: parts of his career. He's shown the goal glove defense
- 21:01Speaker 7: and trying to put it together offensively consistently. And look,
- 21:05Speaker 7: he hit three forty eight in June. Obviously it hasn't
- 21:07Speaker 7: been great in July so far. But yeah, you have
- 21:10Speaker 7: to I mean, look, if you want Schooble, if people
- 21:13Speaker 7: want that guy, you're going to have to give up
- 21:15Speaker 7: significant amount of talent, whether it's major league or minor league,
- 21:18Speaker 7: and I would think that a major leaguer.
- 21:21Speaker 4: Is going to be involved in something like that.
- 21:23Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree.
- 21:23Speaker 6: I think there's gonna have to be a major league
- 21:25Speaker 6: player there, and I think more teams are also looking
- 21:27Speaker 6: for major league players right Like I was listening to
- 21:29Speaker 6: Ken Rosenthal a couple of days ago predict that he
- 21:32Speaker 6: thinks there's going to be more, you know, major league
- 21:35Speaker 6: player for major league player trades than you've really ever
- 21:38Speaker 6: seen with somewhat maybe the uncertainty on the other side
- 21:42Speaker 6: of twenty seven, but also just like this big grouping
- 21:47Speaker 6: of teams that all still kind of believe they're in it,
- 21:50Speaker 6: And the Tigers are also one of those teams that
- 21:51Speaker 6: I think are gonna somewhat believe you're in it. You're
- 21:53Speaker 6: gonna have to entice them. But Hunter, it's difficult because
- 21:57Speaker 6: I don't know that the major league has ever matched
- 22:01Speaker 6: up or lined up with They're as good at the
- 22:04Speaker 6: major league level, and they're potentially even better in the
- 22:07Speaker 6: minor leagues. Like their asset load, especially with in player personnel,
- 22:12Speaker 6: is higher than it ever has been before. Not all
- 22:15Speaker 6: these guys can play for you, Like I even I
- 22:17Speaker 6: listed out right away Luis Payana and Jet Williams. I
- 22:20Speaker 6: think they're both very intriguing bargaining chips. Maybe Painia is
- 22:23Speaker 6: different because of the health issues that he's had this year,
- 22:26Speaker 6: but he's still a twenty year old kid who's got
- 22:28Speaker 6: immense talent and potential. That they have so many dudes,
- 22:32Speaker 6: especially in the infield, not all of them can play.
- 22:34Speaker 6: They got to be able to identify, and it would
- 22:37Speaker 6: feel malpractice is going to be a strong word. Maybe
- 22:41Speaker 6: I'm a week away from organizational malpractice, but I might
- 22:44Speaker 6: get there in terms of not being able and not
- 22:47Speaker 6: feeling like you should strike while the iron's hot and
- 22:49Speaker 6: go and make one of these sizeable acquisitions.
- 22:52Speaker 7: I mean, it does I mean, how many years are
- 22:54Speaker 7: you going to be in this position and not do
- 22:56Speaker 7: that type of deal? Right like we saw last year
- 22:59Speaker 7: they were in the type of position, didn't do that
- 23:01Speaker 7: type of deal. Obviously they they haven't done it really.
- 23:05Speaker 7: I mean, you go back to CC, they've made some
- 23:07Speaker 7: you know, the Mike Mustakis deal. I guess you could
- 23:09Speaker 7: put up there as a significant you know, veteran guy
- 23:12Speaker 7: who came in and could make an allion help, you know, right,
- 23:16Speaker 7: so they they but but again it's it's even a
- 23:19Speaker 7: bigger deal than that. But even if it's a Mike
- 23:21Speaker 7: Mustakis deal that they really haven't done, you know, since
- 23:25Speaker 7: twenty eighteen, like this is. And plus you're looking at
- 23:28Speaker 7: a team right now that's just just out of first
- 23:31Speaker 7: place in baseball, right and you mentioned the minor league too,
- 23:34Speaker 7: you have. I saw yesterday Baseball America put out a
- 23:37Speaker 7: tweet the top three records in baseball have the top
- 23:40Speaker 7: three farm systems right now, Dodgers, Brewers, and Rays. And
- 23:43Speaker 7: it's wild about how good these guys are at the
- 23:46Speaker 7: major league level and also have great minor league systems.
- 23:49Speaker 7: If that's the case, okay, then you know what, the
- 23:53Speaker 7: Dodgers might go out and h and make some moves
- 23:56Speaker 7: and bolster their major league team from their minor league system.
- 23:59Speaker 4: The race.
- 24:00Speaker 7: I know they're stingy as well, but maybe they're thinking
- 24:02Speaker 7: that they have a chance with the way the Yankees
- 24:05Speaker 7: have been playing as of late, and maybe they're thinking
- 24:07Speaker 7: they got a chance to make a run this year,
- 24:09Speaker 7: especially with how they started the season and how well
- 24:11Speaker 7: they played. Then you might want to think about it
- 24:14Speaker 7: as well. It's not the Brewer's way, we all know that,
- 24:18Speaker 7: But at what point does what Matt Arnold says, at
- 24:21Speaker 7: the end of every season, we want to bring a
- 24:22Speaker 7: World Series to Milwaukee become really the forefront of your
- 24:26Speaker 7: mind rather than okay, watching what you do for twenty
- 24:30Speaker 7: seven and twenty eight. I don't disagree with the formula
- 24:33Speaker 7: because they have been consistently good for so long now,
- 24:36Speaker 7: But there is an argument to be made that one
- 24:39Speaker 7: of these years, especially when you're one of the best
- 24:42Speaker 7: teams in baseball, it's not like this team is, you know,
- 24:44Speaker 7: fifty and forty. This team is fifty eight and thirty
- 24:47Speaker 7: four right now unlock. There's three weeks to go till
- 24:49Speaker 7: maybe these trades would be made, just because I think
- 24:52Speaker 7: a lot of teams are looking to say, all right,
- 24:54Speaker 7: are we buyers or sellers? We don't know yet. The
- 24:56Speaker 7: expanded playoffs make everybody kind of decide that. But I
- 25:02Speaker 7: wonder if over the next couple of weeks they start
- 25:04Speaker 7: to consider some of these deals.
- 25:06Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think deviating from your mo is necessarily
- 25:09Speaker 1: out of the question at all. I don't think most
- 25:11Speaker 1: fans would say even if you believe in the process,
- 25:13Speaker 1: that say that that that's a problem, that's part of it,
- 25:16Speaker 1: and the advantage you have is is you know we
- 25:18Speaker 1: talk about Buyason the Apple. By doing something like this,
- 25:22Speaker 1: you wouldn't any in any sense, have to go away
- 25:25Speaker 1: from that strategy. The Brewers have enough depth organizationally and
- 25:28Speaker 1: with a team that you wouldn't be There'd be no
- 25:30Speaker 1: mortgaging of a future or any of that nonsense. You
- 25:32Speaker 1: don't have to cut it down any Apple trees to
- 25:34Speaker 1: do this. You can give away a piece you like,
- 25:37Speaker 1: but you might feel good about your depth with the
- 25:39Speaker 1: multiple pieces.
- 25:40Speaker 2: Whether or not they do this.
- 25:41Speaker 4: You could give away a.
- 25:42Speaker 1: Couple guys and still be confident that you'll have good
- 25:44Speaker 1: teams going forward.
- 25:46Speaker 4: Yeah, I tend to agree with you.
- 25:48Speaker 7: I mean, if you say, okay, I don't think they
- 25:50Speaker 7: should get rid of Freelick, or if they you know, like,
- 25:54Speaker 7: I think he's a very important part of the team,
- 25:56Speaker 7: but just talent for talent wise, I think Luis Lara
- 26:01Speaker 7: could sub into that role pretty darn well from what
- 26:05Speaker 7: we've seen in a couple of games. Now, he's younger,
- 26:07Speaker 7: he hasn't proved it in the major leagues yet. Salfrielick
- 26:09Speaker 7: has proved it. Look, I mean, he was almost hit
- 26:11Speaker 7: three hundred last year in a full Major league season,
- 26:14Speaker 7: that's proving it at the major league level. However, I
- 26:17Speaker 7: do think that Luis Lara has a lot of different talent.
- 26:20Speaker 7: He has the great defense. We saw him make the
- 26:21Speaker 7: diving catch. I know he had the rough one to
- 26:24Speaker 7: start the game last night, but he's you know, battling
- 26:26Speaker 7: the sun second major league game. Okay, But I here's
- 26:31Speaker 7: the other part of that. So yes, I do think
- 26:33Speaker 7: he could substitute. And like you said, they have the
- 26:35Speaker 7: depth in the organization to put guys in those positions
- 26:39Speaker 7: if they do trade away, especially in the minor leagues.
- 26:42Speaker 7: The other side of that is the clubhouse. And we
- 26:45Speaker 7: all know what happened in twenty twenty two, and we
- 26:47Speaker 7: all know what Jake Bauers said about the heartbeat of
- 26:49Speaker 7: the team, and you know the other guys, what they've
- 26:52Speaker 7: said about Sal Freelick and obviously Pat Murphy and even
- 26:55Speaker 7: Matt Arnold to a certain extent, there is a clubhouse
- 27:00Speaker 7: chemistry thing to be considered. I think this Brewers team
- 27:04Speaker 7: an organization, considers that more than they did in twenty
- 27:09Speaker 7: twenty two, because they learned from that. In twenty twenty two,
- 27:12Speaker 7: the only year they've missed the playoffs. You know, since
- 27:14Speaker 7: twenty eighteen was the year they traded Josh Hater away,
- 27:17Speaker 7: So I do think that is going to be in
- 27:20Speaker 7: the forefront of their minds if they do consider a
- 27:22Speaker 7: move like a South Free like. I don't necessarily think they,
- 27:26Speaker 7: I mean, they'll obviously consider if they get a call
- 27:28Speaker 7: that they're going to going to consider things. I don't
- 27:31Speaker 7: think it's likely he gets moved, but I think that
- 27:33Speaker 7: is a factor in it too.
- 27:35Speaker 3: Hunter Bomgart joining us here brought to us by import
- 27:37Speaker 3: minded Hunter. We need the Orthopedic Associates Wisconsin injury update
- 27:42Speaker 3: and Logan Henderson's pitching, so I don't need to ask
- 27:44Speaker 3: about him. But obviously Woodruff is the one that we're
- 27:46Speaker 3: worried about and doesn't seem like it's trending in a
- 27:48Speaker 3: good direction. Orthopedic Associates Wisconsin, the experts Orthawisconsin dot Com,
- 27:52Speaker 3: the website. What is your take on Woody's status and
- 27:55Speaker 3: future right now? Yeah, just not good. The fact that
- 28:00Speaker 3: there's a new injury I think is the biggest thing
- 28:02Speaker 3: I know. Yesterday the quotes came out from Pat Murphy saying,
- 28:05Speaker 3: this is really hard on Woodriff and he's, you know,
- 28:08Speaker 3: trying to keep a good attitude and everything, and then
- 28:10Speaker 3: we get the update from the Brewers that well, you know,
- 28:13Speaker 3: he's got a new injury to the anterior shoulder capsule,
- 28:16Speaker 3: and they're waiting on a second opinion from doctor Keith Meister,
- 28:20Speaker 3: who did the surgery back in twenty twenty three.
- 28:23Speaker 7: So we'll wait for that second opinion. But this does
- 28:26Speaker 7: not sound great. I think coming into the season, you
- 28:30Speaker 7: were optimistic that, okay, even if he misses a month
- 28:34Speaker 7: and a half, you know, and he did right from
- 28:36Speaker 7: April thirtieth to mid June. Even if he does that, okay,
- 28:40Speaker 7: get it out of the way early and then he'd
- 28:42Speaker 7: be good for the rest of the season. He was
- 28:43Speaker 7: probably not going to make it the entire season healthy,
- 28:46Speaker 7: like the odds are he was going to have to
- 28:48Speaker 7: have a break at some point. Well, it's very concerning
- 28:51Speaker 7: that even after that rehab and after getting back and
- 28:54Speaker 7: getting to a place where he pitched five plus innings
- 28:57Speaker 7: in the minor leagues, then came in and made three starts,
- 29:00Speaker 7: and in that third start then has to go out
- 29:02Speaker 7: and now all of a sudden, we're looking at a
- 29:04Speaker 7: new injury.
- 29:05Speaker 4: Yeah, this is this is not good.
- 29:07Speaker 7: And this obviously puts you know, it threatens the rest
- 29:11Speaker 7: of his season. I mean, obviously, what they have said,
- 29:13Speaker 7: what Woodroff has said, what the team has said, is
- 29:15Speaker 7: they want him down the stretch into the postseason. He
- 29:18Speaker 7: has said, you know, he look, he has not been
- 29:20Speaker 7: able to pitch down the stretcher to the postseason like
- 29:23Speaker 7: at all over the few years. And so, you know,
- 29:27Speaker 7: you feel for the guy because obviously the young pitchers
- 29:30Speaker 7: talk about how impactful he is in that clubhouse, how
- 29:34Speaker 7: helpful he has been to them as being kind of
- 29:37Speaker 7: the uncle of the group, so to speak, and helping
- 29:39Speaker 7: the guys along. And I don't doubt that some of
- 29:42Speaker 7: the success in the starting pitching has been because of
- 29:45Speaker 7: the wisdom he's been able to impart. But boy, it
- 29:49Speaker 7: would be a tough blow. Obviously for him, that's first
- 29:52Speaker 7: and foremost, but also for the team. I mean, you
- 29:53Speaker 7: were counting on him to be your veteran guy in
- 29:55Speaker 7: that bullpen or in that starting rotation. So does that
- 29:59Speaker 7: lean you to then want to go out and get
- 30:01Speaker 7: a veteran starting pitcher more than before?
- 30:04Speaker 4: I think it has to.
- 30:05Speaker 7: I think you have to consider it more as much
- 30:07Speaker 7: as bullpen reliever was maybe your top priority. I wonder
- 30:12Speaker 7: if starting pitcher is maybe your top becomes your top priority,
- 30:16Speaker 7: and a veteran guy because look, you have you look,
- 30:19Speaker 7: I mean miss in any scenario, I trust him. Obviously,
- 30:22Speaker 7: Harrison's been a little a little tough, and we can
- 30:24Speaker 7: get into what he's dealing with.
- 30:25Speaker 4: It sounds like some sorenas there.
- 30:27Speaker 7: But otherwise, you know, Sproute, Henderson, Gasser, guys that you
- 30:32Speaker 7: obviously have seen drowing, seen great things. But what do
- 30:35Speaker 7: they do in the postseason other than Gasser? You know,
- 30:38Speaker 7: we're still looking for these guys to prove themselves in
- 30:41Speaker 7: the postseason. Not that Gasser has necessarily proved himself, but
- 30:43Speaker 7: he obviously has some experience there. So you want that
- 30:47Speaker 7: veteran guy that was going to be Woodriff and a
- 30:49Speaker 7: guy who's been there, done that down the stretch end
- 30:51Speaker 7: of the postseason. Doesn't necessarily look like that might be
- 30:54Speaker 7: the case. We'll see, we'll see. Well, wait for the second.
- 30:55Speaker 6: It's really unfair that his last postseason pitch potentially is
- 30:58Speaker 6: in twenty twenty one.
- 31:00Speaker 3: Man, Yeah, I mean he.
- 31:01Speaker 6: Comes in in that in Game four that was already
- 31:04Speaker 6: basically law. I think he came in after the Aaron
- 31:07Speaker 6: Ashby blow up and they were unable to get that
- 31:10Speaker 6: thing done against Atlanta. And your point against being able
- 31:13Speaker 6: to see players react to standing on the chalk line
- 31:17Speaker 6: during a playoff game, like at least Casser stood on
- 31:20Speaker 6: the chalk line. He knows what that's like. But there's
- 31:22Speaker 6: a different piecet when you're performing in it. That law
- 31:25Speaker 6: firm of sprote, Henderson and Gasser this moment right now,
- 31:30Speaker 6: which one are you most optimistic about? Because I love
- 31:32Speaker 6: and him still tantalized by Logan Henderson, and outside of
- 31:34Speaker 6: his injury, I don't know that we've seen him not
- 31:36Speaker 6: have a ton of success yet at the major league level.
- 31:39Speaker 4: In any of those.
- 31:39Speaker 7: Times, right he's been I think the most consistent of
- 31:42Speaker 7: those guys when it comes to being a starting pitcher
- 31:45Speaker 7: at the major league level.
- 31:46Speaker 4: So I'm with you.
- 31:47Speaker 7: I would think that, you know, if I were to
- 31:50Speaker 7: put okay, who is your top three starters in a
- 31:53Speaker 7: playoff series, mis Harrison, and then I think I put
- 31:56Speaker 7: Logan Henderson even in front of a sprout or a
- 31:59Speaker 7: drow in right now, just because I really like what
- 32:03Speaker 7: we've seen from him and the consistency and the ability
- 32:06Speaker 7: to kind of battle out there even when he doesn't
- 32:08Speaker 7: have his best stuff.
- 32:10Speaker 5: I really like.
- 32:11Speaker 7: The consistency we've seen from Henderson, so I agree with
- 32:14Speaker 7: you there. Coleman crow will see. I don't know if
- 32:16Speaker 7: he's necessarily a factor in it. I know he's obviously
- 32:20Speaker 7: had some positive some not so positive starts so far
- 32:24Speaker 7: this year in a limited number. He's going to have
- 32:27Speaker 7: another scheduled outing coming up tomorrow in Nashville where he's
- 32:30Speaker 7: going to throw seventy to seventy five pitches. Mid to
- 32:33Speaker 7: late July returned for him, so he could be a
- 32:35Speaker 7: factor in this as well. Other guys Joe Kunell out
- 32:38Speaker 7: till July early August as far as a bullpen arm,
- 32:42Speaker 7: same with well Rob Sis Strisney might come back a
- 32:44Speaker 7: little earlier. He started his rehab assignment in Arizona. Scheduled
- 32:48Speaker 7: for a next outing in Nashville coming up tomorrow. His
- 32:50Speaker 7: estimated return is mid to late July, so maybe after
- 32:53Speaker 7: the All Star break for him, another bullpen arm to
- 32:55Speaker 7: get back. And then you also have Brandon Lockridge, who
- 32:59Speaker 7: was basically delayed a month because he needed a little
- 33:02Speaker 7: bit of arthroscopic work done on that leg, so he
- 33:07Speaker 7: is estimated to return in late July. D l Hall
- 33:10Speaker 7: Ultimate also estimated to return in late July. First VP
- 33:13Speaker 7: schedule July sixteenth, a week from today. So you have
- 33:16Speaker 7: guys like if you get dl Haul back in that bullpen,
- 33:19Speaker 7: that would be good. Obviously rob Z has been good
- 33:21Speaker 7: in the past, hasn't pitched at the major league level
- 33:23Speaker 7: yet this year. And then Joel Koonell, we'll see, he's
- 33:27Speaker 7: been obviously up and down. So those are some bulpen arms.
- 33:30Speaker 7: And then Lockridge as an outfielder kind of a bench guy,
- 33:33Speaker 7: you wouldn't mind getting back as well.
- 33:34Speaker 4: He's late July, all right, Hunter.
- 33:37Speaker 3: One of the things that stood up from yesterday was
- 33:39Speaker 3: that Bryce Train got the whole day off after playing
- 33:43Speaker 3: that one, and they didn't use him to pinch it,
- 33:45Speaker 3: and Murph's like not, he was absolutely untouchable, Like, don't
- 33:48Speaker 3: even put your spikes on son. I thought that was
- 33:51Speaker 3: pretty interesting that you have to do that, because that's
- 33:53Speaker 3: like the only way to get terrang off the field,
- 33:54Speaker 3: isn't it.
- 33:56Speaker 4: I think? So, I mean he was holding holding firm.
- 33:58Speaker 7: You have a righty on the mound to guys on base,
- 34:00Speaker 7: and that's seventh inning and he goes with Andrew Vaughn there.
- 34:03Speaker 7: I mean, I get it. I mean he's looking to
- 34:05Speaker 7: that they're in this long stretch of games here before
- 34:08Speaker 7: the All Star break, and you want these guys to
- 34:11Speaker 7: be as fresh as they can be down the stretch.
- 34:13Speaker 7: That's why I think Luis Laara is up here this week.
- 34:15Speaker 7: Is he up here beyond this week, We'll see, but
- 34:18Speaker 7: I think he's He's basically given guys some rest throughout
- 34:21Speaker 7: this week, and and so they're using Luis Laara in
- 34:24Speaker 7: that way, and they feel better like Laura's going to
- 34:26Speaker 7: give you more than Blake Perkins playing in that spot
- 34:28Speaker 7: right now, which I don't disagree with. And so they
- 34:31Speaker 7: bring him up and he's kind of in that role
- 34:33Speaker 7: where he's gonna take some time. The Greg Jones thing is,
- 34:36Speaker 7: I know we talked about Jet Williams possibly coming up
- 34:38Speaker 7: and they needed a forty man spot. Well, they needed
- 34:41Speaker 7: a forty man spot for Greg Jones too. Either they
- 34:43Speaker 7: don't think Jet Williams is ready or this is such
- 34:46Speaker 7: a quick thing that they you know, don't want to
- 34:48Speaker 7: send Jet back down and they want to, you know,
- 34:51Speaker 7: have consistency, like they wanted Luis with Luis Laura if
- 34:53Speaker 7: they were going to come up. So they want it.
- 34:56Speaker 7: But boy, Greg Jones makes the air last night. Obviously
- 34:59Speaker 7: we haven't seen much from the plate at all from him.
- 35:02Speaker 7: So it just with a team that's trying to, you know,
- 35:05Speaker 7: battle for a top spot in the National League and
- 35:07Speaker 7: you have, you know, a guy like Jet Williams down there.
- 35:11Speaker 7: It that is the that makes it a little puzzling
- 35:14Speaker 7: if this goes beyond you know, these few games, and hey, look,
- 35:18Speaker 7: every game is important, especially when you're in a battle
- 35:21Speaker 7: between a game or two for a buye or a
- 35:23Speaker 7: buy or two for a top seed.
- 35:25Speaker 4: You know, all that matters.
- 35:26Speaker 7: So just that's the interesting part about Greig Jones being
- 35:30Speaker 7: at the major league level. But I get him going, Okay,
- 35:32Speaker 7: we're going to give this guy a day off. He
- 35:33Speaker 7: played both games of the doubleheader. I want to make
- 35:36Speaker 7: sure he's healthy. As much as it's win tonight, you
- 35:38Speaker 7: also have to win baseball. Keep an eye on that
- 35:41Speaker 7: one hundred and sixty two games schedule.
- 35:42Speaker 6: And Hunter, I love that you're already on bywatch, like
- 35:45Speaker 6: I appreciated at Hunter bon Air yesterday, not only the
- 35:48Speaker 6: Joey Ortiz stat with Cooper Pratt, because my eyes obviously
- 35:51Speaker 6: clearly were not deceiving me. The numbers are much better
- 35:54Speaker 6: since Cooper Pratt's come up.
- 35:56Speaker 5: Maybe it's like the.
- 35:56Speaker 6: Thought the Boogeyman's here, like I knew he was coming
- 35:59Speaker 6: up at some point. Now we see and I didn't
- 36:00Speaker 6: fully lose lose a spot on the team that can help,
- 36:02Speaker 6: but only a game and a half back of the
- 36:06Speaker 6: game back of the Dodgers for that that one seed.
- 36:08Speaker 6: I like where your head's at, Hunter, I like that
- 36:10Speaker 6: you're already eyeing that thing up five days away from
- 36:12Speaker 6: the All Star breaks.
- 36:12Speaker 4: So keep it up exactly.
- 36:14Speaker 7: Well, we're just trying to keep everybody posting on what's
- 36:17Speaker 7: going on here. We got a yeah, four and a
- 36:19Speaker 7: half game lead for the Brewers on the Braves right now,
- 36:21Speaker 7: two games back of the Dodgers right now, So they're
- 36:23Speaker 7: sitting right in the middle there again at the season,
- 36:25Speaker 7: and today they get to buy. And I think that
- 36:28Speaker 7: two seed might even be more important than the one seed,
- 36:30Speaker 7: just because you already you know, like Drew you said before,
- 36:34Speaker 7: like you already win that first playoff series if you're
- 36:36Speaker 7: if you're if you're that one or two seed.
- 36:38Speaker 4: So let's let's go and get that.
- 36:39Speaker 3: You win the series, you don't have to play. I
- 36:42Speaker 3: love winning the exposure. That is the best thing that
- 36:44Speaker 3: you can possibly do. Hunter, great run, Thank you very much.
- 36:49Speaker 3: There is a you got to show this evening.
- 36:52Speaker 7: Yes, usually we have Milwaukee Baseball tonight on Thursday nights,
- 36:55Speaker 7: but it is the pregame show tonight because the Burs played,
- 36:57Speaker 7: so five thirty to six thirty. Right, we'll have the

- 38:17Speaker 1: Well?
- 38:17Speaker 6: I thought I was getting some intelled because this one
- 38:19Speaker 6: comes from Fox fifty nine dot com. But the individual
- 38:23Speaker 6: who was reporting on it said he was from Fox
- 38:24Speaker 6: fifty nine and CBS four in Indianapolis, So I'm legit right.
- 38:28Speaker 6: I didn't know that you could actually combine. However, that
- 38:32Speaker 6: is what they do in Indianapolis, and that's where this
- 38:35Speaker 6: very real story from Matt Adams comes from Fort Wayne, Indiana.
- 38:39Speaker 6: What started as an investigation into a very sad stabbing
- 38:42Speaker 6: in Arson took a disturbing turn in Fort Wayne when
- 38:46Speaker 6: a man admitted he'd set his own.
- 38:48Speaker 5: Genitals on fire.
- 38:50Speaker 6: On May sixth, the Fort Wayne Fire Department investigated a
- 38:53Speaker 6: fire on his attached garage around the same time police
- 38:56Speaker 6: were responding to a reported stabbing. According to probable cause
- 39:01Speaker 6: Affid David, the property owners of the garage said a
- 39:04Speaker 6: neighbor woke them up to alert them of the fire.
- 39:06Speaker 6: The owners noticed a family member, thirty six year old Christopher,
- 39:10Speaker 6: had been missing. Meantime, Fort Wayne police encountered a stabbing
- 39:14Speaker 6: victim who turned out to be Uh, the Christopher Pendon,
- 39:18Speaker 6: according to court documents. As he was being taken to
- 39:20Speaker 6: the hospital, he claimed that he had been stabbed somewhere
- 39:22Speaker 6: in downtown Fort Wayne. He said that they had been
- 39:23Speaker 6: threatened a day before, and according to court documents, he
- 39:27Speaker 6: told investigators. Uh later told investigators that he was dishonest
- 39:31Speaker 6: about the stabbing and wanted to be truthful.
- 39:35Speaker 5: That's when he revealed the true cause of the fire.
- 39:38Speaker 5: Christopher Pendon said that he went into.
- 39:39Speaker 6: The garage and quote harmed himself by cutting off his pea.
- 39:44Speaker 6: Oh my god, According to court documents, Christopher used a
- 39:48Speaker 6: kitchen knife to detach the appendantion thank you for that,
- 39:52Speaker 6: than you told investigators that. He then purtcast why what.
- 39:59Speaker 5: Said it?
- 39:59Speaker 4: Out?
- 40:00Speaker 5: Are on the floor of the garage, just inside the door.
- 40:04Speaker 2: He walked away.
- 40:04Speaker 6: Until he encountered police. It was charged with arson, four
- 40:08Speaker 6: level felony. Hearing a scheduled for next week. He did
- 40:13Speaker 6: not get the kitchen knife back.
- 40:15Speaker 1: God, they walk among us, centil they walk among us?
- 40:20Speaker 6: Oh my goodness, I think today red plastic gas container,
- 40:24Speaker 6: four lighters on a kitchen knife. Whoa some in a
- 40:28Speaker 6: very very burnt hot dog.
- 40:29Speaker 4: Please don't come yet. Lord, Oh it's not all of us.
- 40:33Speaker 6: Oh my, I said you said he'd be proud.
- 40:37Speaker 5: He would be proud of that.
- 40:38Speaker 3: One, pretty much. Mike dropped that one. Thanks for all
- 40:41Speaker 3: the robust discussion. Hey, guess what. Tomorrow is Friday on
