- 0:00Speaker 1: Skating a man down today, Arman with us in spirit.
- 0:03Speaker 1: He is watching his child today.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Do you think he's listening, because you know, Arman was
- 0:09Speaker 2: like the worst at being able to unplug and not
- 0:11Speaker 2: be a part of the show.
- 0:12Speaker 1: And yeah, I know, you know how this works, Like
- 0:15Speaker 1: I don't know how others do it, but I try
- 0:18Speaker 1: to avoid a lot of the you know, the noise
- 0:21Speaker 1: and the din try to come at it with a
- 0:23Speaker 1: clean slate and have your own takes and stuff. But Arman,
- 0:26Speaker 1: when I was doing the afternoon show not that long ago,
- 0:30Speaker 1: Armon would text me during the show he was listening
- 0:31Speaker 1: to the show.
- 0:32Speaker 3: It's like, dude, get a.
- 0:33Speaker 1: Hobby, go do something grass, find something else, right, because
- 0:38Speaker 1: when you do this and you're in it, you need
- 0:40Speaker 1: a little break, right.
- 0:42Speaker 3: And so God bless him.
- 0:43Speaker 1: He might be up already this morning, but knowing him,
- 0:46Speaker 1: knowing that he didn't have to get up. He's on
- 0:48Speaker 1: the child schedule. He is probably watching Frozen already.
- 0:51Speaker 2: I was gonna say, yeah, it might be some miss Rachel,
- 0:54Speaker 2: probably cutting up some bananas. Maybe get getting some breakfast ready,
- 0:57Speaker 2: because you're on that food schedule right like it is.
- 1:00Speaker 2: Once the snacks run out, we got problems, So he
- 1:03Speaker 2: definitely seven o'clock they're up, ripping and roaring by that time.
- 1:07Speaker 2: So I wonder he's not as much of an earbud
- 1:10Speaker 2: guy as you and I. He's he's wired earbuds all
- 1:13Speaker 2: the way through. But I got gotta guess he's got
- 1:16Speaker 2: us up on the smart speaker, which you can also have.
- 1:18Speaker 4: All our streaming options can be a way that you
- 1:20Speaker 4: can find us.
- 1:20Speaker 3: On those as well.
- 1:21Speaker 1: Fantastic eight seven seven seven nine three gets you into
- 1:24Speaker 1: the nicol a lot. I'm talking text and if you're
- 1:26Speaker 1: just getting up the ven diagram. We might actually have
- 1:28Speaker 1: some crossover now, because when we opened the show at
- 1:31Speaker 1: five o'clock, we've we posited that it was very unlikely
- 1:37Speaker 1: that anybody listening to us at five this morning was
- 1:39Speaker 1: at the ballpark last night, watching the Brewers snap their
- 1:42Speaker 1: losing streak with a two to one victory over the
- 1:44Speaker 1: Blue Jays at American Family Field, and then dealing with
- 1:47Speaker 1: the flooding and the traffic nightmare that followed the game.
- 1:52Speaker 1: And now it being seven, people are maybe waking, waking
- 1:57Speaker 1: and baking whatever they do to get themselves going. Maybe
- 2:00Speaker 1: some people up now who are at the game.
- 2:02Speaker 3: If you were at the game. We'd love to hear.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Your experience leaving the ballpark, because you've seen the foot
- 2:07Speaker 1: of the footage of Brewers Boulevard being flooded again.
- 2:11Speaker 2: Again and drew the videos of people getting rescued is
- 2:14Speaker 2: crazy too, and waiting and waving arms to try and
- 2:18Speaker 2: signal for some help. So if you were one of
- 2:21Speaker 2: those folks leaving, we definitely love to hear. Haven't yet
- 2:24Speaker 2: anybody on the text line. We did have our friend
- 2:25Speaker 2: Ben after we were talking about our friends at Current
- 2:28Speaker 2: Electric and the home generator assessments. After too many long outages,
- 2:32Speaker 2: we invested in the home generator in twenty nineteen. Best
- 2:35Speaker 2: investment ever hasn't run a single time. The best insurance
- 2:38Speaker 2: policy you could have the insurance policy. Last night of
- 2:41Speaker 2: a ride home, right, you're like, you know what, maybe
- 2:43Speaker 2: I'm just going to call an uber. Had a couple
- 2:45Speaker 2: too many pops over here at the at the ballpark.
- 2:47Speaker 2: That would have been the slowest call to possibly be
- 2:51Speaker 2: able to get it is. It's a difficult beast when
- 2:55Speaker 2: you're walking out of a game already knowing that you're
- 2:57Speaker 2: going to be one of our huddlers at seven o'clock
- 2:59Speaker 2: because you got a wake up for work the next day.
- 3:01Speaker 2: After a celebratory win like that, then knowing that it's
- 3:04Speaker 2: going to take you about forty five minutes to make
- 3:06Speaker 2: your fifteen minute drive, that'll ll slap down the excitement.
- 3:09Speaker 2: Maybe after a two to one win a little bit.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Hopefully we'll dry out a little bit today, folks, man,
- 3:13Speaker 1: if you're dealing with flooded basements, where we're feeling your pain,
- 3:16Speaker 1: just everybody's just been a pain in They asked for
- 3:18Speaker 1: a couple of days and we'll rock through it and
- 3:20Speaker 1: get on the other side.
- 3:21Speaker 3: Maybe next week we'll be dry. Maybe our friend as
- 3:25Speaker 3: and Waukeshaw, I'm not going to hold out too much help.
- 3:28Speaker 3: I'm gonna hold out once the draft is over.
- 3:30Speaker 2: I think we might have a better chance of being
- 3:32Speaker 2: able to fully get into some of those mayflowers. Ason
- 3:35Speaker 2: Waukeshaw said, we were there last night, did leave in
- 3:38Speaker 2: the seventh inning, and getting out of there was pretty easy.
- 3:41Speaker 2: But the drive back to Waukeshaw a little sketch at
- 3:44Speaker 2: Waukeshaw has been getting hammered. What you say, almost seven
- 3:47Speaker 2: inches of rain over the.
- 3:48Speaker 3: Last three days.
- 3:49Speaker 2: Months of rain in three days, and the Fox River's
- 3:51Speaker 2: always going to be a potential to be flowing over,
- 3:54Speaker 2: so once you get closer there. But you know, Ace
- 3:58Speaker 2: left in the seventh inning. I don't know if he
- 4:00Speaker 2: slipped the ale coin or if that was going to
- 4:01Speaker 2: be the plan of attack either way, Drew, that's one
- 4:04Speaker 2: where you win twice because you get to listen to
- 4:06Speaker 2: the call and listen to the celebration with Jeff and
- 4:09Speaker 2: Lane on the way home, and you potentially didn't have
- 4:13Speaker 2: to wait forty five minutes to be able to leave
- 4:14Speaker 2: the parking lot. At this point, it seemed like it
- 4:16Speaker 2: was right as the bullpens were rolling self. Freeli mentioned
- 4:20Speaker 2: it with Hunter's report of the infield dirt right in
- 4:23Speaker 2: front of home plate being so saturated in the final
- 4:25Speaker 2: three innings. It really was the last three innings when
- 4:28Speaker 2: I think it picked up and caused most of that
- 4:31Speaker 2: delay leaving the game.
- 4:33Speaker 1: We'll talk to Hunter Bombgart about the Brewers. It's coming
- 4:35Speaker 1: up at about seven thirty. In the meantime, we can
- 4:38Speaker 1: give an extended run to Who's hot and Who's not,
- 4:40Speaker 1: presented by Donovan Jorgens and heating and Cooling, because there's plenty,
- 4:45Speaker 1: plenty of candidates for Who's hot and who's not?
- 4:48Speaker 3: Today? A lot in the hot category as well, Drew,
- 4:50Speaker 3: Who's hot? Well, who's hot?
- 4:52Speaker 1: The East Coast high timper is gonna be like over
- 4:55Speaker 1: ninety in New York today? Whoa unseasonably hot? It's way
- 4:58Speaker 1: ahead of schedule.
- 5:00Speaker 3: It's awesome.
- 5:00Speaker 2: I'm recording Carry the G Radio the podcast with Nags today,
- 5:03Speaker 2: so he will be in a beautiful movie and he
- 5:06Speaker 2: hitting New York City.
- 5:07Speaker 1: He hates him some heat, man. He likes it cold.
- 5:09Speaker 1: He likes crisp cold football weather.
- 5:11Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's why he likes Donovan Jorgenson heating and
- 5:14Speaker 2: cooling because if they can cool down that room and
- 5:16Speaker 2: cool down that house, Nags is going to be there.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Donovan Jorgenson over forty years of serving our community as
- 5:21Speaker 2: the largest employee owned HVAC company in the area. What
- 5:25Speaker 2: about another hot category from out east, Drew Aaron Judge. Now,
- 5:29Speaker 2: it feels like there were some people that were wondering,
- 5:32Speaker 2: Holy kyw. Aaron Judge hasn't hit a home run in
- 5:34Speaker 2: four games to start the season. Shoe Hey o Tani
- 5:36Speaker 2: hasn't hit a home run in the first fall six
- 5:38Speaker 2: games of the season.
- 5:39Speaker 3: New Slash.
- 5:40Speaker 2: Those guys are gonna catch up, Judge four bombs and
- 5:42Speaker 2: four games had another one last night. Steph Curry was
- 5:46Speaker 2: hot last night in the second of the play in
- 5:49Speaker 2: games thirty five.
- 5:50Speaker 3: Points and Drew.
- 5:51Speaker 2: I can tend that in my sports viewing lifetime now,
- 5:58Speaker 2: Michael Jordan fans, I'm not trying to upset you.
- 6:00Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm not trying to tell you.
- 6:01Speaker 2: I'm trying to diminish anything that happened in the nineties,
- 6:04Speaker 2: but I did not get to view it live and
- 6:07Speaker 2: in person. I still believe Lebron James the career that
- 6:10Speaker 2: he's had untouchable in how long and Vassa has been.
- 6:15Speaker 2: But damn, when somebody's rolling like Steph late in the game,
- 6:19Speaker 2: I don't know that there's anybody that, as an opponent
- 6:23Speaker 2: and an opposing fan, would strike more fear in you
- 6:26Speaker 2: than when Steph Curry gets to smiling and getting to
- 6:29Speaker 2: having the mouthguard hanging out and dangling at the free
- 6:32Speaker 2: throw line. Because last night, man, that was that was
- 6:34Speaker 2: epic prime time. Steph Curry being able to close that
- 6:38Speaker 2: out in a nine to ten game that's this manufactured,
- 6:41Speaker 2: is anything NBA kind of hit a win because this
- 6:44Speaker 2: is a great way to start out the playoffs.
- 6:45Speaker 3: If you get Steph Curry having a game like last night,
- 6:47Speaker 3: it makes you think that maybe they have a chance now.
- 6:50Speaker 1: Like Steve Kerr, I don't know if he was kidding,
- 6:51Speaker 1: but he gets to the podium like this is our
- 6:53Speaker 1: you know, finals, this is our this is like, you know,
- 6:56Speaker 1: enjoy it.
- 6:57Speaker 3: It was.
- 6:57Speaker 1: It was a flashback. It was definitely who's hot and
- 7:01Speaker 1: who's not. Who's hot?
- 7:02Speaker 2: Chad Patrick two earned runs in four starts drew for
- 7:06Speaker 2: Chad Patrick. He's top five again April fifteenth, April sixteenth.
- 7:10Speaker 3: Hard to be checking.
- 7:11Speaker 2: The overall standings and where you rank in terms of
- 7:14Speaker 2: Major League Baseball, but he's top five and e ra
- 7:17Speaker 2: less than a run and six and two thirds. You
- 7:20Speaker 2: you touched the seventh inning as a Brewers pitcher. That
- 7:22Speaker 2: keeps you in the hot category for a week in
- 7:24Speaker 2: and of itself.
- 7:25Speaker 1: And talk about old school. He touched the seventh inning
- 7:29Speaker 1: with eighty one pitches. Eighty one pitches. That's as efficient
- 7:32Speaker 1: as it can be in that game was two hours
- 7:34Speaker 1: and twenty six minutes. And it was very, very nice
- 7:37Speaker 1: for the for the morning show. Yeah, because when when.
- 7:40Speaker 2: I'm turning the post game on and and it's before
- 7:43Speaker 2: nine thirty and I got to see the Brewers victory.
- 7:46Speaker 3: That's gonna be a smile in and of itself.
- 7:48Speaker 2: How about Brandon Lockers, We maybe didn't give him enough
- 7:50Speaker 2: credit after the game on Tuesday night since it's still
- 7:54Speaker 2: ended in an l after the extra innings Variety had
- 7:58Speaker 2: the game tying hit on Tuesday Night, Drew. They gave
- 8:02Speaker 2: a stat last night on Brewers TV that he's top
- 8:05Speaker 2: five in pitches scene.
- 8:07Speaker 3: In Major League Baseball.
- 8:10Speaker 2: No wonder why Pat Murphy loves Breckinridge, and no wonder
- 8:13Speaker 2: that that's a Pat Murphy kind of player, because they've
- 8:16Speaker 2: found different ways. Even last night, I think it was
- 8:19Speaker 2: I can't remember who was off the top of my
- 8:20Speaker 2: head batting in front of him, swings on the first pitch,
- 8:23Speaker 2: gets out one out in the inning, and then sees
- 8:26Speaker 2: eight pitches in the next at bat and draws a walk.
- 8:29Speaker 2: Dude has found and carved himself a very very nice
- 8:32Speaker 2: spot on this team, and with the injury to Christian Yelich,
- 8:35Speaker 2: I don't see anybody taking Brandon Lockridge out of any
- 8:38Speaker 2: playing time going forward.
- 8:39Speaker 3: He made some good defensive play last night. Who's hot?
- 8:41Speaker 1: Who's not brought to us by Donovan Jorgenson, the employee
- 8:44Speaker 1: owned heating and cooling HVAC company that you should check
- 8:46Speaker 1: out if you are in need.
- 8:48Speaker 3: Many people might be these days.
- 8:51Speaker 1: I'm gonna say he's been hot and cold. He was
- 8:54Speaker 1: hot last night. He got to win. Aaron Ashby. He
- 8:57Speaker 1: is in line for this year's Jared Kaning Award. Pitched
- 9:00Speaker 1: ten of the seventeen Brewers game so far.
- 9:02Speaker 2: And he had the tailored Youngman Award for a long
- 9:05Speaker 2: time right where it was like starter reliever, opener, starter reliever,
- 9:08Speaker 2: leverage reliever.
- 9:09Speaker 3: Where's he gonna go right now?
- 9:11Speaker 2: He's just he's the old school outgetter that accounts talked
- 9:15Speaker 2: about when they first started rolling in twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen.
- 9:17Speaker 2: But man, that's it's impressive how much they're able to
- 9:21Speaker 2: throw on that arm drew after the shoulder stuff. Yep, right,
- 9:26Speaker 2: I mean now, I know we're a couple of years
- 9:27Speaker 2: removed from his injury issues, but they've they've now completely
- 9:32Speaker 2: taken any red tape off and throwing him. We saw
- 9:36Speaker 2: it in the playoffs last year. Any game it felt
- 9:38Speaker 2: like Aeron Ashby was gonna be their starting pitcher. And
- 9:41Speaker 2: impressive impressive stuff for how much they're using him so far.
- 9:44Speaker 3: Who's not hot?
- 9:45Speaker 1: You mentioned the Warriors game against the Clips. Kawhi was
- 9:48Speaker 1: not hot. Not hot, nor were the Clips. Drew check
- 9:52Speaker 1: this out. In the last five years they the Clippers.
- 9:55Speaker 1: This is in that whole aspiration?
- 9:58Speaker 2: Is that right? Our Tree Tree era first round exit
- 10:03Speaker 2: in three years and missed the playoffs in two of
- 10:06Speaker 2: those last five seasons for the La Clippers. Man, they
- 10:09Speaker 2: started out with a lot of steam and a lot
- 10:11Speaker 2: of excitement in that crew, and now it has been
- 10:14Speaker 2: down the back of the dinosaur and out they got
- 10:16Speaker 2: the sweetest stadium now. It seems like in the sport
- 10:20Speaker 2: that Intuit Dome looks unbelievable. However, they just have a
- 10:24Speaker 2: team that is so in the middle of the NBA,
- 10:27Speaker 2: which is the worst purgatory to be in. Bucks know
- 10:30Speaker 2: that pretty well for years spent in said NBA purgatory.
- 10:34Speaker 2: But it's a tough place to be living these teams
- 10:36Speaker 2: that are losing in this playing tournament.
- 10:38Speaker 1: Not hot, gotta say NBA ref Ben Taylor, It's rare
- 10:41Speaker 1: that you see an NBA ref leave a game with
- 10:43Speaker 1: a hammy.
- 10:43Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a tough moment. That happened last night, little
- 10:46Speaker 3: delay in the action.
- 10:47Speaker 2: And I would have thought, Drew, you're in you're in
- 10:49Speaker 2: prime form here. I mean, Ben's been running around doing
- 10:53Speaker 2: this thing for six months.
- 10:54Speaker 3: Those guys are in great shape, man.
- 10:57Speaker 2: Elite physical specimens yeas. And and also from the amount
- 11:02Speaker 2: of travel that a lot of different groups do, that's
- 11:05Speaker 2: one that blows my mind that they don't. They don't
- 11:07Speaker 2: travel in packs right like they're they're all with different
- 11:11Speaker 2: crews throughout the year and they just catch up on assignments.
- 11:14Speaker 2: All right, sweet, we're working together tonight and then bouncing
- 11:17Speaker 2: around to three different spots. That's that's that's a tough
- 11:19Speaker 2: one that that's not as bad, Drew, I think as
- 11:21Speaker 2: the uh the horn delay that we saw a couple
- 11:24Speaker 2: of weeks ago. But man, when you're the ref and
- 11:26Speaker 2: you got to call for a you got to call
- 11:27Speaker 2: for a sub. It's not like when CB Buckner goes
- 11:31Speaker 2: out a couple of weeks ago and they had to
- 11:32Speaker 2: get have somebody go and grab the uh the homeplate
- 11:35Speaker 2: umpire gear.
- 11:36Speaker 3: To move behind the dish. They don't have it. They
- 11:38Speaker 3: don't have replacement guys back there.
- 11:39Speaker 2: They're not the NFL, which yesterday started doing their onboarding
- 11:43Speaker 2: in the UH in the replacement ref variety UH one
- 11:46Speaker 2: one other in the not category. Drew and I saw
- 11:48Speaker 2: a couple of these defenders. Are these these folks that
- 11:51Speaker 2: were rolling through the Rossini Mike Vrabel conversation?
- 11:55Speaker 3: Uh? People are trying.
- 11:57Speaker 2: To equate the Jay Glazer head coaching beers on the
- 12:04Speaker 2: table pool side conversation to the pool side conversation that
- 12:09Speaker 2: Mike Vrabel and Diana Rossini were having. I think there
- 12:12Speaker 2: might be a little difference in the two pools a
- 12:15Speaker 2: little bit. What do you mean he's sitting by the
- 12:17Speaker 2: pool with all these coaches they're drinking. It's the exact
- 12:20Speaker 2: same thing. Yeah, I don't know if the built You've
- 12:24Speaker 2: been to the Billmore in Phoenix. Great place, lovely place,
- 12:27Speaker 2: Maybe not as romantic as Sedona.
- 12:30Speaker 3: It's a gorgeous spot I could see.
- 12:32Speaker 2: I can see feeling romantic when you walk on into
- 12:35Speaker 2: the Biltmore, but not for there's no two person bungalows
- 12:39Speaker 2: from what I've seen in my times at the Biltmore
- 12:42Speaker 2: in Phoenix.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Yeah, You're not wrong, and the Biltmore is a comfort
- 12:47Speaker 1: in compared to the Scottsdale Princess. But you know, yeah,
- 12:53Speaker 1: spots that a couple Who's hot, Who's not? Donovan Jorgenson
- 12:57Speaker 1: presents this segment Who's Hot? After last Shotane in his
- 13:02Speaker 1: first game in five years, Pitcher only he struck out
- 13:06Speaker 1: ten batters. Now he had two hits, two walks, an
- 13:11Speaker 1: earned run, six innings. They won eight to two. The
- 13:13Speaker 1: Dodgers are they crushed the Mets, but he had gone
- 13:18Speaker 1: twelve innings without an earn run to open the season.
- 13:21Speaker 1: His his era through three starts, his point zero point
- 13:24Speaker 1: five zero.
- 13:25Speaker 3: Good lord, and as great as he is.
- 13:27Speaker 1: And sometimes we have to remind ourselves how great he is,
- 13:29Speaker 1: like generationally great, like a solid case can be made.
- 13:32Speaker 1: He's the greatest baseball player ever. You know, he's in
- 13:35Speaker 1: the Babe Ruth discussion.
- 13:36Speaker 2: He's going to get into the point Drew where it's
- 13:38Speaker 2: going to be hard to argue against her, to argue
- 13:40Speaker 2: against it.
- 13:41Speaker 1: But then last night it makes you wonder, like what
- 13:43Speaker 1: if he just pitched or what if he just hit?
- 13:46Speaker 1: How great would it be if he just did one side?
- 13:47Speaker 1: The fact that he does both at such an elite
- 13:49Speaker 1: level is what makes him the freak that will arguably
- 13:53Speaker 1: never see again.
- 13:54Speaker 3: One hundred percent.
- 13:55Speaker 2: And it continues to make my take of by in
- 13:59Speaker 2: the next ten years, every team is gonna have a
- 14:01Speaker 2: guy that can hit and pitch because you're gonna find
- 14:03Speaker 2: the value monetarily onto your especially if they get into
- 14:07Speaker 2: a salary cap.
- 14:08Speaker 3: Like we can. We can blur the lines a little bit.
- 14:10Speaker 2: This guy can give us a couple of innings and
- 14:12Speaker 2: also can be a legit bat off the bench, not
- 14:15Speaker 2: to the degree where you are told because of your
- 14:19Speaker 2: potentially second Tommy John Right, like when when he goes
- 14:24Speaker 2: out a couple of years ago, he had like a
- 14:26Speaker 2: different sounding procedure than the full on Tommy John ucl repair,
- 14:32Speaker 2: but they told him, hey, you can't pitch.
- 14:33Speaker 3: All you're gonna be able to do is hit. Okay,
- 14:36Speaker 3: all right, okay, it's not what I want to do.
- 14:38Speaker 2: I guess I'll just have to go and have the
- 14:40Speaker 2: first fifty fifty season major League Baseball has ever seen.
- 14:45Speaker 2: It made me wonder Drew if he had an ailment.
- 14:47Speaker 2: I don't know what it would be that would allow
- 14:49Speaker 2: you to only pitch. Like you just said, if he
- 14:52Speaker 2: only pitched for a year, he's winning the Cy Young, Yeah,
- 14:55Speaker 2: how good. It's gonna be hard to think he pitches
- 14:59Speaker 2: the entire year, he's not gonna win the cy young
- 15:02Speaker 2: and he is like a minus two to seventy favorite
- 15:06Speaker 2: every single year to win the MVP because nobody can
- 15:09Speaker 2: touch the value. It's unbelievable. And I know they haven't
- 15:14Speaker 2: paid any of the money yet because what is it,
- 15:16Speaker 2: six hundred and eighty million of that yeah, seven hundred
- 15:18Speaker 2: million dollar contract is all deferred.
- 15:21Speaker 3: But they're getting their money's worth. It's hard.
- 15:24Speaker 2: It's hard to say that a deal for seventy million
- 15:27Speaker 2: dollars a year on the surface was going to be
- 15:30Speaker 2: uh a bargain, But they've won two World Series. He's
- 15:34Speaker 2: the greatest player of all time and the greatest marketing
- 15:37Speaker 2: chip in an untapped market that nobody else can really
- 15:40Speaker 2: venture into. Uh yeah, I think it might be worth
- 15:43Speaker 2: worth the price of admission there. One other one from
- 15:45Speaker 2: that game was how about Who's Hot? Joe Buck getting
- 15:48Speaker 2: behind the mic and calling some baseball last night?
- 15:51Speaker 3: Wild?
- 15:51Speaker 2: He was on the call last night of that game,
- 15:54Speaker 2: and I think it was oral Hrscheizer was in there
- 15:56Speaker 2: as well. Fun to be able to hear Joe Buck
- 16:00Speaker 2: calling baseball. I get Fox wanted him to be doing
- 16:04Speaker 2: golf and trying to get their money's worth ESPN, get
- 16:07Speaker 2: your money's worth, you pointed out a couple of weeks ago,
- 16:10Speaker 2: they're what walking into the last year of that five
- 16:12Speaker 2: year deal. Yep, let's get Joe Buck on like fifteen
- 16:15Speaker 2: to twenty baseball games this year. It gets we squeeze
- 16:18Speaker 2: that to squeeze that orange a little bit more. And yeah,
- 16:22Speaker 2: he's the kind of guy that the high level games.
- 16:24Speaker 2: When you don't do games all year, that's Bob Costas
- 16:26Speaker 2: like in your your your foggy a little bit.
- 16:29Speaker 1: Regular seasons different. Yeah, just let them let him have
- 16:32Speaker 1: those low leverage games, they said.
- 16:34Speaker 2: So he said something last night where uh right away
- 16:37Speaker 2: horsesh Earl and Orl and whoever else was on the
- 16:41Speaker 2: call with him. Uh, he said, you know Will Smith
- 16:44Speaker 2: walking into the batter's box. Will Smith maybe hit the
- 16:46Speaker 2: game winning home run in World in the World Series
- 16:48Speaker 2: last year. Joe Bucks like, I think he's the most
- 16:52Speaker 2: underrated player in all of baseball. There was that long pause,
- 16:55Speaker 2: and Oral Harscheizer's like, you know, I do get to
- 16:58Speaker 2: see him every day.
- 16:58Speaker 3: I think he's pretty properly.
- 17:00Speaker 2: I think people know that Will Smith might be like
- 17:02Speaker 2: the best catcher of the game.
- 17:03Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, I'm with you. I'm with you, Joe.
- 17:06Speaker 3: I'm with you, dude. There was a I do like
- 17:10Speaker 3: get it, but maybe maybe let's pay attention a little
- 17:12Speaker 3: bit more. Some ball breaking. I like that. I like that.

- 19:03Speaker 5: yeoman's work this morning, so well done.
- 19:05Speaker 2: We're doing just enough to not be dead, right like
- 19:08Speaker 2: we're in That's I've always often joked when I was
- 19:11Speaker 2: helping people first get behind the board, so don't worry
- 19:14Speaker 2: about it. Something goes wrong, nobody dies, right Like what
- 19:17Speaker 2: we do is not that important. So I'm just we're
- 19:20Speaker 2: still live. But Hunter, it's been a it's been a
- 19:23Speaker 2: tough endeavor, been a white knuckler. But luckily, you know,
- 19:26Speaker 2: it's not like the not like the roads are very clean, right,
- 19:29Speaker 2: So everyone's white knuckle in it here today on a Thursday.
- 19:31Speaker 3: It works out. That's right, Hunter, What was it like
- 19:33Speaker 3: at the ballpark? And what was it like leaving the ballpark?
- 19:35Speaker 1: Beuse, the first thing we noticed when we went through
- 19:37Speaker 1: your recap was you did it from your home and
- 19:39Speaker 1: not at the.
- 19:40Speaker 5: Park, right, Yeah, last night was a night where I
- 19:44Speaker 5: was just focused on let's get home and then we
- 19:46Speaker 5: can worry about the video after that.
- 19:49Speaker 4: Yeah, it was.
- 19:51Speaker 5: Basically eighth ninth innings started getting reports that there was
- 19:55Speaker 5: flooding outside. Obviously, during about the seventh eighth ninth innings,
- 19:59Speaker 5: you could see the the leaks starting to really have
- 20:02Speaker 5: water come through them in the roof, so you knew
- 20:04Speaker 5: it was raining pretty hard out there. And obviously we
- 20:06Speaker 5: were in a thunderstorm warning, so we knew some of that.
- 20:09Speaker 5: So then you know, it started getting reports that it
- 20:12Speaker 5: was the lots were flooding again, and all reminded you
- 20:14Speaker 5: of that August weekend last year when they played the
- 20:17Speaker 5: Mets and and this sort of flooding happened. Uh So
- 20:20Speaker 5: then we go downstairs, we go in the clubhouse and
- 20:22Speaker 5: everybody's watching the news. I mean, everybody's watching the flooding
- 20:27Speaker 5: reports in the clubhouse and we're all we're all watching it.
- 20:30Speaker 5: The players are concerned, you know, everybody's concerned about getting home,
- 20:34Speaker 5: and and you know, all the everybody's trying to figure out, okay,
- 20:37Speaker 5: which which roads are open, which roads aren't. So we
- 20:39Speaker 5: were in the clubhouse a little longer because we're like, well,
- 20:43Speaker 5: we can't get out now, some might as well get
- 20:45Speaker 5: every interview we can, right, And and so wait around
- 20:48Speaker 5: a little bit, talk to talk to south Freelick there
- 20:51Speaker 5: as you saw earlier, and he said that there's that
- 20:54Speaker 5: leak above home plate that I was not aware of
- 20:57Speaker 5: this one, but there's a little bit of a leak
- 20:58Speaker 5: above home plate that the water comes through and it
- 21:01Speaker 5: rains in front of home plate. Which then makes the
- 21:04Speaker 5: ground really soggy there, and that's why you saw some
- 21:07Speaker 5: of those dead and ground balls and that eighth inning
- 21:09Speaker 5: and that aided the Brewers rally to score a couple
- 21:11Speaker 5: of runs. So yeah, and then and then it was
- 21:13Speaker 5: kind of like, all right, do your work, and then
- 21:15Speaker 5: let's try to venture outside and see what happens.
- 21:18Speaker 4: And then basically all right between.
- 21:20Speaker 5: My phone between what people are saying, Okay, let's let's
- 21:23Speaker 5: navigate a roote home. And luckily when I left, there
- 21:26Speaker 5: was you know, everybody had gotten out of the parking lot,
- 21:29Speaker 5: which was good. And then luckily, I think some of
- 21:32Speaker 5: the flooding had subsided, although that that Miller park Way
- 21:36Speaker 5: and that that you know, that Brewers Boulevard area was
- 21:38Speaker 5: still flooded, so had to navigate around that. But otherwise, Yeah,
- 21:41Speaker 5: thankfully was able to get home safe. But I know
- 21:43Speaker 5: a lot of people were affected, especially when you left.
- 21:46Speaker 5: Right when you left the ballpark last night was kind
- 21:49Speaker 5: of when it was the worst, and so the timing
- 21:51Speaker 5: was just really really awful. And yeah, hopefully everybody stayed
- 21:55Speaker 5: safe on their drive home.
- 21:56Speaker 2: Well luckily it won't be you know, congested leaving today,
- 21:59Speaker 2: like right at the same times. When you know rush
- 22:01Speaker 2: hour traffic happens, it's a tough deal and timing ends
- 22:04Speaker 2: up being a brutal beast in your right. Hunter, it
- 22:06Speaker 2: did seem like it all coincided together now forty five
- 22:12Speaker 2: minutes for folks getting home. We wanted to make sure
- 22:14Speaker 2: everyone was arriving alive and being safe. However, you got
- 22:17Speaker 2: to do something for the ball club right at some point,
- 22:19Speaker 2: we all got to do what we can to be
- 22:20Speaker 2: able to get a w I'll take it if it
- 22:22Speaker 2: meant that the rain was helping that eighth inning rally,
- 22:26Speaker 2: because it did feel like it might have been forces
- 22:28Speaker 2: outside of their own control. That's seeing I single from
- 22:31Speaker 2: Contreras is a thing of beauty, partially done because of
- 22:35Speaker 2: the pressure you put on thinking and believing that there
- 22:38Speaker 2: could be guys in motion there on a potential double
- 22:42Speaker 2: steal at the moment. But feeling that moment and the
- 22:46Speaker 2: tide turning in the ballpark did could you sense a
- 22:49Speaker 2: little bit of maybe now some shackles are coming off
- 22:52Speaker 2: and we're getting a little bit of confidence in the box.
- 22:55Speaker 4: Yeah, I think so. I Pat Murphy said it after
- 22:57Speaker 4: the game.
- 22:57Speaker 5: It felt like a month and since they had gotten
- 22:59Speaker 5: a ball to bounce their way, and they got a
- 23:01Speaker 5: couple obviously balls to bounce in their way in that
- 23:04Speaker 5: in that eighth inning and to take the lead.
- 23:06Speaker 4: And then Abner.
- 23:07Speaker 5: Rebay was the guy chosen for the job, and Pam
- 23:09Speaker 5: Murphy said, look, I knew Amner Rebay would get the
- 23:12Speaker 5: job done, and then that's why I put him in
- 23:13Speaker 5: that position.
- 23:14Speaker 4: He said.
- 23:15Speaker 5: It was interesting, he said with Trevor McGill in that
- 23:17Speaker 5: ninth inning, he was like, you know, I wasn't gonna
- 23:19Speaker 5: put him out there in that spot. He said he
- 23:22Speaker 5: was up late late the night before, so it would
- 23:24Speaker 5: have been you know, Tuesday.
- 23:25Speaker 4: Night trying to figure out what was going wrong.
- 23:28Speaker 5: And then Murphy said he saw Trevor McGill yesterday and
- 23:30Speaker 5: said and just looked at him.
- 23:32Speaker 4: He's like, you are absolutely exhausted.
- 23:34Speaker 5: So I think McGill had a very late night trying
- 23:36Speaker 5: to figure this thing out on Tuesday night. So yeah,
- 23:39Speaker 5: if you don't think these guys care after they make,
- 23:41Speaker 5: you know, mistakes and want to get better, you're definitely wrong.
- 23:44Speaker 5: I mean, these guys are trying every single day. I
- 23:46Speaker 5: know the offense is doing the same thing. Saw Joey
- 23:49Speaker 5: Ortiz David Hamilton out there with Daniel Vogelbach, who obviously
- 23:52Speaker 5: is the new assistant hitting coach this season, putting in
- 23:55Speaker 5: a lot of work pregame yesterday. And then what was
- 23:58Speaker 5: really cool is after the game that I saw the
- 24:00Speaker 5: vogel Block going in and checking in with the David
- 24:04Speaker 5: Hamilton or with some of the players and say, hey,
- 24:05Speaker 5: how are you feeling, How how'd that work last night?
- 24:08Speaker 5: How did the things that we worked on in the
- 24:10Speaker 5: cage and you know, before the game work out for you?
- 24:13Speaker 5: So cool to see kind of him in his element.
- 24:16Speaker 5: I know it was maybe hard for us to picture
- 24:18Speaker 5: him as a coach right away because he just got
- 24:20Speaker 5: done playing so soon, but it seems he's taken on
- 24:23Speaker 5: that role really well. But I think all of that
- 24:25Speaker 5: combined then you get a couple of breaks and you
- 24:28Speaker 5: just get that one, right. I think it seemed like
- 24:30Speaker 5: that was the sentiment from guys we talked to, whether
- 24:32Speaker 5: it be Chad Patrick or Sal Freelich or Hamilton after
- 24:35Speaker 5: the game of all, right, now we got one, kind
- 24:37Speaker 5: of got the monkey off the back, and now let's
- 24:39Speaker 5: let's get back to playing.
- 24:40Speaker 1: Brewer Baseball Hunter Bomguard joining us here on the Nicolay Lot.
- 24:43Speaker 1: I'm talking text man and the stream. For those of
- 24:45Speaker 1: you on Facebook X and YouTube, Hunter's got a lot
- 24:47Speaker 1: of fans with his youthful exuberance, Hunter.
- 24:51Speaker 3: Sweet haircut by the way, doubt Chad Patrick.
- 24:53Speaker 1: He inherited the number thirty nine from Corbyn Burns and
- 24:56Speaker 1: he throws a cutter. It's not like Burns's cutter, which
- 24:59Speaker 1: was a wipeout dominant pitch that he threw it like
- 25:01Speaker 1: ninety five. His is a little a little lower in
- 25:04Speaker 1: the velocity department, but he gets good movement on it
- 25:06Speaker 1: and it's a pitch that he's building around. I'm not
- 25:09Speaker 1: comparing him to Corbyn Burns yet, but there are some
- 25:14Speaker 1: similarities and even like in the way they talk and
- 25:16Speaker 1: the way they kind of look and the number that
- 25:18Speaker 1: they wear. But is he stepping into that role? Is
- 25:21Speaker 1: he a guy to watch? Are you getting a feeling
- 25:24Speaker 1: that he's starting to figure it out. It's not like
- 25:26Speaker 1: he had a bad year last year going back and forth,
- 25:28Speaker 1: but it seems like he's can be one of those
- 25:30Speaker 1: anchors of the rotation.
- 25:33Speaker 4: It does.
- 25:33Speaker 5: It sounds like just the cutter was something that they
- 25:35Speaker 5: worked on during between his last outing when he came
- 25:37Speaker 5: out of the bullpen and last night, and it sounds
- 25:40Speaker 5: like that even took another step forward during those days
- 25:43Speaker 5: and Pat Murphy seeing after the game that the pitching
- 25:46Speaker 5: coaches said, yeah, this is taking another step. So if
- 25:49Speaker 5: you want to let him go third time through the order,
- 25:51Speaker 5: it might not be a bad idea.
- 25:52Speaker 4: I mean, it's interesting.
- 25:54Speaker 5: Patrick has not very often went third time through the order,
- 25:57Speaker 5: and they've been a little concerned about doing that, but
- 25:59Speaker 5: they did last night, obviously with the bullpen depleted, but
- 26:02Speaker 5: also with the efficiency with which Chad Patrick was going
- 26:05Speaker 5: through and also trusting that cutter and doing what he
- 26:08Speaker 5: does what he did last night with that pitch, and
- 26:10Speaker 5: I think that's really encouraging knowing that it seems something
- 26:14Speaker 5: you know, improved throughout, you know, within the five days
- 26:17Speaker 5: or four days between outings for Chad Patrick that led
- 26:20Speaker 5: him to success last night. So that is a good
- 26:23Speaker 5: sign moving forward. And look, he's arguably been your best
- 26:26Speaker 5: starter so far. The ERA number definitely definitely shows that,
- 26:30Speaker 5: and he one of your best pitchers. I mean overall,
- 26:32Speaker 5: take bullpen into it as well, where he has just
- 26:35Speaker 5: been very consistent.
- 26:37Speaker 4: He's allowed some.
- 26:38Speaker 5: Traffic in in some times, but he's able to get
- 26:41Speaker 5: out of those situations.
- 26:43Speaker 4: And last night that one run in the first inning.
- 26:45Speaker 5: But then you know, goes to the dugout and after
- 26:48Speaker 5: the first inning and Pat Murphy pulls him aside and says, hey,
- 26:51Speaker 5: we want you to just attack, just trust your stuff
- 26:54Speaker 5: and attack these guys.
- 26:55Speaker 4: And the Blue.
- 26:56Speaker 5: Jays ended up being aggressive and that it led to
- 26:59Speaker 5: being able to pitch to two outs in the seventh inning,
- 27:01Speaker 5: which was huge for that bullpen. You get dl Hall
- 27:03Speaker 5: who comes in who has been kind of sneaky good
- 27:05Speaker 5: so far this season, and then Aaron Ashby with a
- 27:08Speaker 5: scoreless inning, and then Abner Rebay of the ninth. So
- 27:10Speaker 5: that worked out really well pitching wise. And it all
- 27:12Speaker 5: starts with Chad Patrick and like I said, he's arguably
- 27:15Speaker 5: been your best starter so far through three four starts.
- 27:18Speaker 3: All right, you mentioned your Rebay.
- 27:20Speaker 1: I know Murph went, you know before the game, you
- 27:22Speaker 1: know it's the three act play, there's the pregame of
- 27:24Speaker 1: the game, and then the postgame Murph tells you guys, oh,
- 27:26Speaker 1: we're gonna go buy committee and.
- 27:27Speaker 3: We're gonna do it.
- 27:28Speaker 1: By matchups, it seems like your Rebe might be the closer.
- 27:31Speaker 1: I mean, he last night was like kind of to me,
- 27:33Speaker 1: it's like kind of a springboard, yea. And I don't
- 27:36Speaker 1: know even if he's available today or if he's going
- 27:38Speaker 1: to get the call next, but it does seem like
- 27:41Speaker 1: he's next in line to get the most chances, and
- 27:44Speaker 1: it would be logical. And I don't know, Billy, Yeah.
- 27:46Speaker 1: I love the way the guy carries himself. I love
- 27:48Speaker 1: his celebrations. I love you know, his confidence.
- 27:50Speaker 3: His attitude in MOCKX. He feels like a close.
- 27:53Speaker 1: It does, and we've seen him in big leverage spots
- 27:57Speaker 1: and he hasn't shrunk from them. So Hunt or what
- 28:00Speaker 1: is your take if we were to bet who's going
- 28:02Speaker 1: to be the Burrough's closer like tomorrow and going the
- 28:05Speaker 1: next month, is it your rebe?
- 28:08Speaker 4: I think so.
- 28:09Speaker 5: I think he's the logical next choice. The only problem was,
- 28:12Speaker 5: you know, before last night he had not you know,
- 28:14Speaker 5: been pitching his best. He looked better. I think Pat
- 28:16Speaker 5: Murphy liked what he saw Tuesday night, even though he
- 28:19Speaker 5: let up a run, and so liked using him last
- 28:23Speaker 5: night for that closing situation.
- 28:24Speaker 4: He's pitched two days in a row.
- 28:26Speaker 5: If they come into a slave situation today, I would
- 28:28Speaker 5: think you'd actually see someone else probably, And I know
- 28:31Speaker 5: Pat Murphy said before the game yesterday, that's closer by committee,
- 28:34Speaker 5: and you know he's not necessarily giving Trevor McGill a
- 28:37Speaker 5: break from the role. But I would think that Trevor
- 28:40Speaker 5: McGill won't be in that role for a little bit here,
- 28:44Speaker 5: and who knows, maybe you use a Grand Anderson, maybe
- 28:47Speaker 5: you use.
- 28:48Speaker 4: A whoever you need to.
- 28:49Speaker 5: If it's a lefties, maybe use a deal Hall, right,
- 28:52Speaker 5: It kind of might make sense to do that if
- 28:54Speaker 5: Andrew Rebay is not available, But I do think you
- 28:57Speaker 5: Reba makes sense. Like you said, he's just got that
- 29:00Speaker 5: wag of the closer. And if if he can get
- 29:02Speaker 5: back to the form he was in last year, if
- 29:04Speaker 5: you can get see the form we saw last night,
- 29:07Speaker 5: it's gonna bode well for the Brewers because then they
- 29:08Speaker 5: have that bona fide next option. The problem was when
- 29:11Speaker 5: you were sitting there two nights ago and Trevor McGill
- 29:14Speaker 5: blew that save. It's like, okay, but who else are
- 29:16Speaker 5: you gonna put in there right now? And you're kind
- 29:17Speaker 5: of concerned, well, one of these guys is going to
- 29:19Speaker 5: have to step up. I mean, whether it's Sarapa, whether
- 29:21Speaker 5: it's Rebay, one of these guys in your leverage spots
- 29:25Speaker 5: has to step up, and your Rebay did that last night.
- 29:28Speaker 5: So I'm guessing that game the manager, you know, the
- 29:30Speaker 5: confidence of his manager. He already had the confidence of
- 29:32Speaker 5: his manager to put him in that role. But it
- 29:35Speaker 5: puts you on another level if you're able to complete
- 29:37Speaker 5: that save. So I would think so if he's available,
- 29:39Speaker 5: he's the guy. But you might see today, Hey, if
- 29:41Speaker 5: they're up four to two heading you to the ninth inning,
- 29:44Speaker 5: you might see a different guy just because he's pitched
- 29:46Speaker 5: the last two nights.
- 29:46Speaker 2: Yeah, it's still he's going to be your guy, especially
- 29:48Speaker 2: when you see guys kids customizing the forty five your
- 29:51Speaker 2: Rebay jerseys already at American Family Field. Well, I saw
- 29:55Speaker 2: a kid at Witnell High School did the Rebaate celebration
- 29:59Speaker 2: after he closed out a game, rolling the dice on
- 30:01Speaker 2: the mound. That's too good to be able to pass up.
- 30:04Speaker 2: But Hunter, when you see other guys in the role
- 30:09Speaker 2: and how they adjust to it, it's a different beast mentally,
- 30:13Speaker 2: right like So then we were discussing it yesterday trying
- 30:16Speaker 2: to figure out how do you soft launch McGill back
- 30:18Speaker 2: in because you can't put him right away in the
- 30:20Speaker 2: ninth inning.
- 30:21Speaker 3: Again, I would.
- 30:22Speaker 2: Assume you don't want to put him in like a
- 30:24Speaker 2: seven to two ball game.
- 30:26Speaker 3: Do you do you open him? Like?
- 30:28Speaker 2: Where do you think the role is in the time
- 30:31Speaker 2: that you see Trevor McGill back on the mountain?
- 30:34Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't
- 30:38Speaker 5: pitch today, maybe even doesn't pitch tomorrow, just to kind
- 30:41Speaker 5: kind of get a reset. They'll keep him on the
- 30:44Speaker 5: roster and everything, but maybe this weekend against Miami comes back,
- 30:47Speaker 5: and I don't know, I wouldn't put it out of
- 30:49Speaker 5: the possibilities that he does pitch in like a seven
- 30:52Speaker 5: to two game. Last year when he came back from
- 30:55Speaker 5: that injury, they're putting him in those kinds of spots,
- 30:58Speaker 5: just low leverage, maybe a seventh inning here, sixth inning here,
- 31:02Speaker 5: just to kind of get him back in his feet wet.
- 31:05Speaker 5: And I wonder if they do that here, And honestly,
- 31:08Speaker 5: it might be the best scenario for him and for
- 31:11Speaker 5: the Brewers to put him in a blowout type of game.
- 31:14Speaker 4: If that sort of thing happens, because the Bruises.
- 31:16Speaker 5: Just have not seen them many blowouts, and it felt
- 31:19Speaker 5: like they didn't last year either, And sal said last
- 31:23Speaker 5: night to us, He's like, you know, these one run games,
- 31:25Speaker 5: it feels like we are coming out on the right
- 31:27Speaker 5: side of him a lot through my tenure in Milwaukee,
- 31:30Speaker 5: and lately it just hadn't been happening, which was strange.
- 31:32Speaker 5: But yeah, I think the if the blowout happens, I
- 31:36Speaker 5: think you could see him there because then you kind
- 31:37Speaker 5: of can get a clear clear yourself mentally. Obviously, if
- 31:42Speaker 5: you're looking to get him back into the closer role,
- 31:44Speaker 5: eventually you're gonna have to put him back in a
- 31:46Speaker 5: leverage spot and solely work there. But here for the
- 31:49Speaker 5: exact time being for the next week or so. Yeah,
- 31:52Speaker 5: maybe throw him in a blow game, maybe throwing a
- 31:53Speaker 5: seventh inning. It could be a closer game in the
- 31:56Speaker 5: seventh inning. Maybe that's a that's a time to do it.
- 31:58Speaker 5: But it just from what Pap or if he said
- 32:00Speaker 5: last night about how exhausted he looked and the work
- 32:03Speaker 5: he's putting in in the place mentally physically that he's
- 32:06Speaker 5: in right now, I wouldn't be surprised if you see
- 32:08Speaker 5: him in more of a blow out setting on.
- 32:10Speaker 1: The way out here, Hunter, we saw Brandon Lockridge or
- 32:13Speaker 1: Breckenridge as Murphy calls that make a great play, and
- 32:17Speaker 1: then we find out after the game he's been dealing
- 32:18Speaker 1: with a hip thing.
- 32:19Speaker 3: Is everybody in this team injured? What the hell?
- 32:22Speaker 4: I know?
- 32:22Speaker 2: Yeah, miss Moralse, he's gonna throw up on the mound. Dude,
- 32:25Speaker 2: you can't have him going full Adriane.
- 32:27Speaker 4: However, we can't.
- 32:29Speaker 1: What's in the water cooler there? Come on, like, and
- 32:32Speaker 1: what is the status with lockerage? Is this a serious
- 32:35Speaker 1: thing or what?
- 32:36Speaker 3: Do you think?
- 32:37Speaker 5: He's been dealing with it since the k C series,
- 32:41Speaker 5: which would have been a week and ten days ago, probably,
- 32:44Speaker 5: I mean, I remember that's what I first remember hearing
- 32:46Speaker 5: about it was was in that Kansas City series, and
- 32:49Speaker 5: so boy, I mean, he's been dealing with it, but
- 32:52Speaker 5: he's been playing through it. And that's maybe why you saw,
- 32:55Speaker 5: you know, a Luis Matos, you know, the first game
- 32:58Speaker 5: of this series, maybe Perkins of times depending but and yeah,
- 33:03Speaker 5: that's why you saw Perkins and center and lockerage and left.
- 33:05Speaker 5: I think that's why they're kind of keeping him out
- 33:07Speaker 5: of center field right now, just so then that doesn't
- 33:10Speaker 5: have to you know, run as much, but he still
- 33:12Speaker 5: made that great play last night even with the hip injury.
- 33:15Speaker 5: So yeah, and then you got like a Kyle Harrison,
- 33:17Speaker 5: who you know, got drilled in the knee by Gary Sanchez.
- 33:19Speaker 5: Well it's not the knee that's turning him, it's the
- 33:20Speaker 5: risk that he fell on when he fell and so unfortunately,
- 33:24Speaker 5: he's probably not going to make his next.
- 33:25Speaker 4: Start and be pushed back. So he was you know,
- 33:28Speaker 4: the rotation.
- 33:29Speaker 5: The round of the rotation probably has him, you know,
- 33:32Speaker 5: in Miami on Friday, but I don't think that's going
- 33:34Speaker 5: to happen unfortunately.
- 33:36Speaker 4: So yeah, it's just weird.
- 33:37Speaker 5: Not going to go on the il Cornet Pat Murphy
- 33:39Speaker 5: yesterday for Kyle Harrison, but most likely not going to
- 33:42Speaker 5: make his next scheduled start.
- 33:44Speaker 4: So it's just it's unbelievable. I mean, it's it's it's wild.
- 33:47Speaker 5: Last year, obviously the pitchers were what we focused on
- 33:50Speaker 5: the decimation when it came to the pitching injuries.
- 33:53Speaker 4: This year, it's a lot of offense, but also.
- 33:55Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just it's boy, you have key contributors out
- 33:58Speaker 5: of the offensive side, and then people are just hanged
- 34:00Speaker 5: up so far to start the season, so you don't
- 34:02Speaker 5: love that when it's April sixteenth and knowing you got
- 34:05Speaker 5: you know, four and a half months of the season left,
- 34:08Speaker 5: all right
- 34:10Speaker 2: Yeah, five and a half, well one of them once
- 34:11Speaker 2: a couple, once a month, but amongst friends in a
- 34:14Speaker 2: baseball season
