- 0:16Speaker 2: Still don't know the Mariner starter. We are thinking it

- 0:24Speaker 2: breaks it before then, and then we'll tell you beforehand.

- 0:28Speaker 2: starting for the Tigers. His name's Trek Scoubel. He's really good,
- 0:31Speaker 2: like maybe the best left hander in the game. Not

- 1:37Speaker 2: of a little tradition here. Jess loves and I love it,

- 1:47Speaker 2: I know our regulars A Ricky and Tacoma, Mike and
- 1:50Speaker 2: Edmonds got shut out. We had a bump Robin bearing

- 1:56Speaker 2: Oh gosh, my guy, My guy's going to join us
- 1:59Speaker 2: in a second like this, bumping Robin bearing up to
- 2:01Speaker 2: the number one spot in the order. That'd be like,
- 2:03Speaker 2: I don't know, having Luke Raley hit lead off for
- 2:06Speaker 2: you in an ALDS game, or I don't know, having
- 2:10Speaker 2: Luke Raley hit it all in an ALDS game. That's
- 2:12Speaker 2: what i'd be like. Anyway, that's coming up at two o'clock.
- 2:15Speaker 2: My good friend Allison lou Can, we're gonna join us,
- 2:18Speaker 2: coming up at one forty five from the KRACK and

- 2:28Speaker 2: radio side, the Krack and Audio Network is right here
- 2:31Speaker 2: on ninety three point three KJRFM. If it's I don't
- 2:35Speaker 2: want to miss this. I think it's the second largest
- 2:38Speaker 2: radio network in the National Hockey League. It may be
- 2:41Speaker 2: number one now, at worst it's number soon. Yeah, it's
- 2:45Speaker 2: right up there. It's amazing with those guys have done

- 3:08Speaker 2: Network and of course John Forzel on the call tonight,
- 3:11Speaker 2: the best in the business there as well. So big
- 3:14Speaker 2: night tonight, Crack and trying to win their first ever
- 3:16Speaker 2: opening game. They've never won an opening game. Amazing, never
- 3:20Speaker 2: won an opening game. Good news is Anaheim amongst the
- 3:24Speaker 2: teams that have been around like longer than five years,
- 3:26Speaker 2: like the Kraken, have like the worst record in terms
- 3:28Speaker 2: of opening games in the NHL in their history their
- 3:30Speaker 2: thirty two years. But they're much improved. Yeah, they're a
- 3:32Speaker 2: much improoved team. So we'll see what happens tonight. Should
- 3:35Speaker 2: be fun. Places to be packed. They're doing like a
- 3:36Speaker 2: blue carpet across the street, blue carpet arrival. Yeah, with
- 3:41Speaker 2: the players they come in and instead of coming in
- 3:44Speaker 2: through the I don't know how they're gonna do that
- 3:46Speaker 2: because they come in and the bowels and the basement garage.
- 3:48Speaker 2: But anyway, theyre bringing them upstairs. So around three thirty
- 3:51Speaker 2: or so the players will do their start doing their
- 3:53Speaker 2: walk ins. Depending on when guys arrive here, so will
- 3:57Speaker 2: there who Marsham marsh Marsh Marshall Lynch is he playing
- 4:02Speaker 2: the night? Is in the lineup? I saw it?
- 4:04Speaker 3: Do you remember he did the Winter Classic?
- 4:07Speaker 4: God he'd let them into the stadium, So you never
- 4:09Speaker 4: know where that man will show up.
- 4:12Speaker 2: You would not. By the way, the first time I've
- 4:15Speaker 2: laid eyes on the super Bird statue was just a
- 4:18Speaker 2: little while ago. I was walking around trying to find
- 4:19Speaker 2: a bite to eat, and I, I, that's pretty cool.
- 4:22Speaker 2: That's a fact.
- 4:23Speaker 3: I thought it was one of the better representations.
- 4:26Speaker 2: Yeah, that the superd statue for the Climate Plageria next
- 4:28Speaker 2: to Leny Wilkins statue, which I think is great because
- 4:30Speaker 2: I love Lenny. I grew up, you know, knowing about
- 4:32Speaker 2: him and that team that won it, and I barely
- 4:35Speaker 2: remember him as a player, but I do remember as
- 4:37Speaker 2: a player. I would say this, I see more statues, man,
- 4:41Speaker 2: like more statues. Give me more statues here in that
- 4:43Speaker 2: the little Climate Plagerina Applaza and it's more statues.
- 4:46Speaker 3: I think has done a pretty good job of late.
- 4:49Speaker 2: I mean, I think Kemp and Peyton should have one.
- 4:51Speaker 2: I think Spencer Haywood should have one. I wouldn't mind
- 4:54Speaker 2: having h You know, hell, Dennis Johnson was our playoff
- 4:57Speaker 2: MVP or Gus Gus Williams. Give me some, give me
- 5:00Speaker 2: some more, man, give me some more. Okay, let me
- 5:02Speaker 2: get to it right now. We have a big day
- 5:04Speaker 2: coming up tomorrow with Game five of the a l DS,
- 5:07Speaker 2: and we have it. We're gonna go big. I talked
- 5:08Speaker 2: to Jess earlier and I said, you know what I EO.
- 5:12Speaker 2: Sarahs is gonna have his weekly visit with us coming
- 5:13Speaker 2: up at one twenty. But I wanted to bring our
- 5:15Speaker 2: buddy on today. Chris Crawford. You know him, you love him.
- 5:18Speaker 2: He fills in on the station oftentimes if I'm gone,
- 5:20Speaker 2: he fills in for me. But he's our baseball guy,
- 5:24Speaker 2: all due respect. Nathan Nathan's our curmudgeon baseball guy. Chris
- 5:27Speaker 2: is our upbeat baseball guy. Molly one half of the
- 5:29Speaker 2: Molly Whopper's brought to you by Simply Seattle. It is
- 5:32Speaker 2: Christopher Crawford joining us right now, and he's gonna spend
- 5:35Speaker 2: some time with us his first couple of segments. He'll
- 5:37Speaker 2: be with me for eno. I wanted to kind of
- 5:39Speaker 2: touch base on yesterday real quick, real quick, and then
- 5:42Speaker 2: move on. Hello, sir, how are you?
- 5:46Speaker 5: I'm a wreck, my friend. I'm oh, I'm out the
- 5:51Speaker 5: cracking that I gotta worry about.
- 5:53Speaker 6: I think this is one of their biggest openers. It's
- 5:57Speaker 6: funny to say for a franchise that's only existed for
- 5:59Speaker 6: a little while, but man, oh man tomorrow, and boy
- 6:02Speaker 6: am I thankful that it's not a one o'clock game,
- 6:04Speaker 6: by the way, I I'm so glad that it's going
- 6:07Speaker 6: to be like a real crowd. And of course there'd
- 6:10Speaker 6: be a lot of people there if it was a
- 6:11Speaker 6: one o'clock too, but like five o'clock, a real everybody's
- 6:15Speaker 6: paying attention, and that's gonna make me just even more
- 6:18Speaker 6: nervous having to wait for it. But I'm so glad
- 6:20Speaker 6: it's like it's real. It's so much more real when
- 6:23Speaker 6: it's primetime.
- 6:24Speaker 2: Well, I just I feel like sometimes I'm the guys
- 6:26Speaker 2: shouting from them. By the way, I should'ntion where Tom's
- 6:28Speaker 2: watchmar which is across the street from Climate plageriina they
- 6:30Speaker 2: open up a little bit later and people can swing
- 6:33Speaker 2: on by. Here. They get to I think a season
- 6:35Speaker 2: ticket holder gathering upstairs, and then I think the general
- 6:37Speaker 2: public is allowed downstairs, if I understand that correctly, But
- 6:41Speaker 2: so you may hear some music and so forth in
- 6:43Speaker 2: the background. I think I'm feeling like I'm screaming from
- 6:46Speaker 2: the mountaintops at times like baseball, just what are we doing?
- 6:50Speaker 2: Like these day games are stupid, you know, but they
- 6:53Speaker 2: happen and we move on. You know. We saw all
- 6:55Speaker 2: the empty not just empty seats in Detroit yesterday, empty sections,
- 7:00Speaker 2: oh yeah, like and I know they were they had
- 7:02Speaker 2: lost the day before, but those tickets would be sold
- 7:05Speaker 2: sorry before and now the game started at four for them,
- 7:07Speaker 2: So I'm not sure what the excuse was there, But
- 7:10Speaker 2: I think, you know, there are realities of the world,
- 7:13Speaker 2: Like if I were to ask people here at Tom's watchpart, hey,
- 7:15Speaker 2: can you just take tomorrow off?
- 7:16Speaker 7: Just for get go? No, So let's get past that.
- 7:20Speaker 2: Okay, Yesterday was what it was, and I think you
- 7:24Speaker 2: mentioned it on the postcast out yesterday with Anders at
- 7:27Speaker 2: some point that Detroit offense may have heated up right,
- 7:31Speaker 2: Like it just kind of felt like a matter of time.
- 7:34Speaker 2: It would have been nice to win Saturday, and then
- 7:37Speaker 2: you get Sunday, and then you don't worry about games
- 7:39Speaker 2: four and five that didn't happen. But how concerned are you,
- 7:43Speaker 2: Chris about Detroit's offense just kind of showing some signs
- 7:47Speaker 2: of life, not just the fact that the Mayor's bullpen imploded,
- 7:50Speaker 2: but the offense showing some life.
- 7:53Speaker 6: Pretty concerned And I think the main reason. And and
- 7:55Speaker 6: we'll talk to email about this, because he's a heck
- 7:57Speaker 6: of a lot smarter than me, even though I don't
- 7:59Speaker 6: like it. They've seen these pitchers a bunch, like this
- 8:04Speaker 6: was Bizarto's fourth appearance, this is Gabe Spire's fourth appearance.
- 8:07Speaker 6: They they have the book on these guys, and there
- 8:11Speaker 6: are studies that show that there is a punishment for
- 8:16Speaker 6: pitchers who are facing guys for that many days in
- 8:19Speaker 6: a row. So that's my biggest concern is that they've
- 8:23Speaker 6: got the book on these guys. On top of the
- 8:24Speaker 6: fact that, look, this was one of the better offenses
- 8:27Speaker 6: in baseball for a long time. For a long time,
- 8:31Speaker 6: the Detroit Tigers had the best record in the American
- 8:33Speaker 6: League by a considerable margin until an absolute cratering in September.
- 8:38Speaker 5: Well, usually when you.
- 8:40Speaker 6: Creter that bad, you got to regress on the opposite
- 8:42Speaker 6: side pretty darn hard. And there's talented baseball players there.
- 8:46Speaker 6: Riley Green is one of the better young outfielders in baseball.
- 8:49Speaker 6: Spencer Torkleson is perfectly capable. Carrie Bonds akaay Carry Carpenter
- 8:56Speaker 6: is a guy who has done some good things in
- 8:57Speaker 6: this league. That's the biggest concern is that there are
- 9:02Speaker 6: It's tied for the biggest concern, I guess is that
- 9:04Speaker 6: not just that the bullpen is paying attacks from how
- 9:07Speaker 6: much they've had to be used, and then on top
- 9:10Speaker 6: of that, a good offense that's been horrible has to
- 9:14Speaker 6: regress at some point.
- 9:15Speaker 5: So yeah, I'm very worried the use of.
- 9:19Speaker 2: The bullpen yesterday, you know, whether it be our post
- 9:23Speaker 2: game show with Softy and Company yesterday, you guys on
- 9:25Speaker 2: the postcast and just kind of talked about it, you know,
- 9:28Speaker 2: And I don't want to rehash that. I will ask
- 9:32Speaker 2: you this, like, lineup wise, just line up wise? Any
- 9:38Speaker 2: criticism for for Dan Wilson, for the lineup itself or
- 9:43Speaker 2: his tennis I mean, we don't want dom keinzone hitt
- 9:46Speaker 2: against lefties, right, that's the big thing. But do we
- 9:48Speaker 2: want Luke Rayley ever hitting?
- 9:50Speaker 4: No?
- 9:50Speaker 2: No, no, that's the thing.
- 9:52Speaker 6: And I know this city has a hate hate relationship
- 9:57Speaker 6: with Mitch Garver, but Mitch Garver is so much better
- 9:59Speaker 6: of a hitter right now than Luke Railey is so
- 10:01Speaker 6: much better.
- 10:02Speaker 5: So I had no issue with hitting Garb in that situation.
- 10:05Speaker 6: And Garb had a terrific at bat to draw that
- 10:08Speaker 6: basis or the walk to load the bases.
- 10:10Speaker 5: What happened after the base is loaded is another issue.
- 10:13Speaker 6: The issue for me is pinch hitting for Garver. With Rayley,
- 10:17Speaker 6: it doesn't make any sense. It's I understand that there's
- 10:20Speaker 6: platoon advantages. Platoon advantages only work if you're good, and
- 10:24Speaker 6: right now, Luke Railey is awful. He's an awful baseball player.
- 10:27Speaker 5: I don't like it.
- 10:28Speaker 6: I love watching Luke Rayley run like Phoebe buffet around
- 10:31Speaker 6: the basis as much as anybody, but like, there's.
- 10:34Speaker 5: No offensive skill right now with that guy.
- 10:37Speaker 2: I hate it.
- 10:38Speaker 5: I hate it because he's a fun guy to watch,
- 10:40Speaker 5: but it ain't fun to watch him hit. He has
- 10:42Speaker 5: no shot. It doesn't matter if he's facing a righty
- 10:44Speaker 5: a lefty.
- 10:45Speaker 6: If he's just throwing the ball with both hands somehow
- 10:48Speaker 6: and just pushing it down the thing, he's not going
- 10:49Speaker 6: to hit it right now. That's my issue is why
- 10:53Speaker 6: you pitch hit for Mitch Garver, leave Mitch Garver in.
- 10:55Speaker 6: It's not a great advantage, but Mitch Garver is a
- 10:58Speaker 6: better baseball player than Luke Rai. Right now, Luke Rayley
- 11:01Speaker 6: cannot be used as anything but a pinch runner right now.
- 11:03Speaker 2: I don't know if we've ever had a friend's reference
- 11:06Speaker 2: on the show, but I appreciate that real Fastna. We're
- 11:09Speaker 2: gonna find out tomorrow who starts. Do we expect it
- 11:12Speaker 2: to be the Rock? And should it be the Rock?
- 11:15Speaker 6: I keep going back and forth on this. I think
- 11:18Speaker 6: I would start Castillo, and I have George Kirby ready
- 11:22Speaker 6: to roll. Maybe you go one time through the lineup
- 11:26Speaker 6: with Castillo, one time through the lineup with Kirby. Maybe
- 11:29Speaker 6: you hope to get through the lineup a couple more
- 11:31Speaker 6: times because of the fact that the Tigers have seen
- 11:34Speaker 6: this bullpen so freaking much over these last four games.
- 11:39Speaker 6: But I think that Castillo's probably earned that start and
- 11:43Speaker 6: It's not like George Kirby was bad. He made one mistake,
- 11:45Speaker 6: and I think it was more a bad decision by
- 11:47Speaker 6: Dan Wilson to leave Kirby in in that situation more
- 11:51Speaker 6: than anything else. I think I would probably go with
- 11:54Speaker 6: the Rock just because I think he is the highest
- 11:57Speaker 6: floor with some ceiling.
- 11:59Speaker 8: To go with it.
- 12:00Speaker 2: Good stuff, all right, Chris is gonna stick with us
- 12:02Speaker 2: Ineno Sarah's from the Athletic, his weekly visit with us
- 12:04Speaker 2: on Thursdays. We'll join us next. We'll throw all those

- 12:55Speaker 2: Sarah's joins us right now. Chris Crawford is with me today,
- 12:57Speaker 2: ronning shotgown for the first few minutes a couple segments
- 12:59Speaker 2: of the show because we have a Game five of
- 13:02Speaker 2: the Alds tomorrow at T Mobile Parks, so we're going
- 13:06Speaker 2: heavy coverage on that and thrilled to have our guy
- 13:09Speaker 2: Emo Serius from The Athletic and Rachel Beryl's podcast with
- 13:12Speaker 2: us right now.
- 13:12Speaker 7: Hello, you know, how are you?
- 13:15Speaker 9: I'm great. I'm I'm not as nervous as you guys are.
- 13:21Speaker 2: Christmas nervous. Anybody nervous, Krystal One's nervous here.
- 13:24Speaker 10: I'm not.
- 13:25Speaker 6: The Only thing I get nervous about is knowing my
- 13:27Speaker 6: hair situation and talking to that guy with that hair situation.
- 13:33Speaker 2: Oh well, it is what it is. Uh. You know,
- 13:36Speaker 2: we'll start with this just overall thoughts on this series
- 13:40Speaker 2: and the fact that it's going five. Does that surprise
- 13:43Speaker 2: you at all that we're going to five games, or
- 13:45Speaker 2: did you think that maybe Seattle would have closed them
- 13:47Speaker 2: out earlier or maybe the other way around.
- 13:51Speaker 9: Well, I picked the Mariners in four because I thought
- 13:56Speaker 9: they would have the pitching advantage and you know, just
- 14:00Speaker 9: the overall advantage in all nonths Google games. It didn't
- 14:04Speaker 9: exactly go down that way, but you know, four was
- 14:10Speaker 9: a big moment because now I think it kind of
- 14:12Speaker 9: switches back to Detroit's favor. I mean, it's just I
- 14:15Speaker 9: know that they beat him once, but to beat him
- 14:17Speaker 9: twice in one series. Scougel is the best pitcher in
- 14:20Speaker 9: the American League, and it's it's a tough order.
- 14:26Speaker 2: You know.
- 14:26Speaker 6: I wanted to ask you about a nerd stat and
- 14:30Speaker 6: that's because you only ask you know about nerd stats.
- 14:33Speaker 6: You can ask him like four different questions and one
- 14:35Speaker 6: of them is nerd stats. So there's been a lot
- 14:38Speaker 6: of stuff, you know, about the punishment for a bullpen
- 14:42Speaker 6: arm facing a lineup as often as they did. And
- 14:45Speaker 6: the big thing, of course with the game on Wednesday
- 14:49Speaker 6: was the fact that Gave Spire and Eduard Bizzardo both
- 14:52Speaker 6: got shell act.
- 14:53Speaker 5: And they were both facing Detroit for the fourth time.
- 14:57Speaker 6: How real is that or is the noise kind of
- 15:00Speaker 6: messy from that stat being a little bit of a
- 15:02Speaker 6: smaller sample size. How much reality is there though, to
- 15:06Speaker 6: a bullpen having a little bit of punishment when you
- 15:08Speaker 6: face a lineup this many times.
- 15:11Speaker 9: Yeah, I've looked at the available research. Today we talked
- 15:14Speaker 9: about it a little bit on raising barrels, and I
- 15:16Speaker 9: think that while some of the evidence is inconclusive, I
- 15:21Speaker 9: think there's enough smoke there to say that the more
- 15:25Speaker 9: often a single pitcher faces a single batter, not necessarily
- 15:29Speaker 9: as the whole team, but you know, one versus one,
- 15:33Speaker 9: the more it switches to the batter's favor. And we
- 15:37Speaker 9: don't really have that much data on four times because
- 15:40Speaker 9: it doesn't happen all that often, but three times is
- 15:44Speaker 9: usually when it's almost like with a starter, third time
- 15:48Speaker 9: through the order penalty, And it's not because the pitcher
- 15:51Speaker 9: is necessarily tired or because his stuff is worse. It's
- 15:55Speaker 9: because of familiarity with their pitches, just like the third
- 15:59Speaker 9: time through the world for starters. So I do think
- 16:02Speaker 9: it's a thing you noticed last year with the Dodgers.
- 16:06Speaker 9: You know, you could make a spreadsheet of their pictures
- 16:10Speaker 9: versus the Yankees hitters, And one thing that really stuck
- 16:13Speaker 9: out for me was they used different left handed pictures
- 16:17Speaker 9: against Juan Soto every time they could, so that Juan
- 16:20Speaker 9: Soto didn't get three looks at any one lefty reliever.
- 16:24Speaker 9: You might be tempted to say, hey, we have Alex Besia,
- 16:26Speaker 9: We're gonna run him out there three times, four times
- 16:29Speaker 9: against Soto and hope that he's our Sodo stopper. They
- 16:32Speaker 9: kind of spread it around a little bit, you know
- 16:36Speaker 9: with the Mariners squad.
- 16:37Speaker 5: Do you have that ability?
- 16:39Speaker 9: Do you have enough relievers to spread it around?
- 16:41Speaker 2: Or was this just what you had to do? Chris,
- 16:45Speaker 2: that's the thing. Chris can answer that better than me.
- 16:47Speaker 2: I'm thinking. I mean they went to Spire early, right,
- 16:51Speaker 2: because that's there. Basically, I think they feel probably more
- 16:54Speaker 2: confident in him than anybody besides mun Yo's maybe brash,
- 16:57Speaker 2: but probably Chris maybe Spire right, That's why they Yeah, that's.
- 17:01Speaker 5: The thing, and you know, you got to go with
- 17:04Speaker 5: what got you here.
- 17:05Speaker 6: Unfortunately, unfortunately I suppose, and I was looking at it,
- 17:10Speaker 6: Fire just threw some terrible pitches to Jamal Jones, and
- 17:14Speaker 6: as I forget who else was up in that situation,
- 17:17Speaker 6: but both those guys just weren't good. It's more than
- 17:20Speaker 6: anything that I could see. But I'll ask, you know,
- 17:23Speaker 6: like big situation, you still got to go to Gabe
- 17:27Speaker 6: Spyron Eduard Bizardo in that situation. You can't really the
- 17:31Speaker 6: data just has to kind of be the data in
- 17:33Speaker 6: that situation.
- 17:33Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, truth. But in a game five, do you
- 17:39Speaker 9: try to leap over some of that middle of the
- 17:43Speaker 9: bullpen and get to the end by using a starter
- 17:47Speaker 9: on a protest?
- 17:49Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 17:50Speaker 7: Yes, yes, yeah, well yeah, I was thinking about it with.
- 17:55Speaker 9: The Blue Jays and the Yankees because they came down
- 17:58Speaker 9: to it and there bullpen was looking a little shaky,
- 18:01Speaker 9: and I was wondering, you, Tray, you know, it's Kevin
- 18:03Speaker 9: Gosman going to come running out of that bullpen, but
- 18:06Speaker 9: they decided to go with the regular closer.
- 18:08Speaker 2: Well, that would bring us the question, you know, like
- 18:10Speaker 2: Dan Wilson and Chris correct me if I'm wrong. Still
- 18:12Speaker 2: hasn't announced the starter for tomorrow, so we're waiting to
- 18:15Speaker 2: see is it going to be Castille or is it
- 18:16Speaker 2: going to be Kirby. But the assumption would be whoever
- 18:20Speaker 2: it isn't is available if need be, as you know,
- 18:23Speaker 2: an early arm coming out of the bullpen, you know,
- 18:27Speaker 2: I mean you do the rates and barrels every day.
- 18:29Speaker 2: You study this stuff. Would you go with Castilla? Would
- 18:32Speaker 2: you go with Kirby? Or can you go wrong with
- 18:34Speaker 2: either one of those guys?
- 18:35Speaker 8: You know?
- 18:37Speaker 9: I think you do what the Phillies did last night,
- 18:41Speaker 9: and you take a look at the order and you
- 18:44Speaker 9: figure out who you don't want, you know, seeing Castillo
- 18:47Speaker 9: twice or seeing Kirby twice, you go with both, and
- 18:52Speaker 9: you it's a there's you know, it's go home otherwise.
- 18:55Speaker 9: So I think you you kind of go through maybe
- 18:57Speaker 9: one and a half times through the order with both
- 18:59Speaker 9: of them, or one of them gets two times to
- 19:01Speaker 9: the order. Maybe you leave a little bit of given
- 19:03Speaker 9: there for how it's looking, you know. But I would
- 19:08Speaker 9: say you use both Kirby and Castillo, and you try
- 19:11Speaker 9: to get through seven with both of them, and you
- 19:14Speaker 9: expect Munos to maybe get four or five outs, and
- 19:17Speaker 9: that just leaves its precious little gap you gotta cover,
- 19:22Speaker 9: you know.
- 19:23Speaker 5: To rescoogle.
- 19:24Speaker 6: I think you probably have mentioned this before, is really
- 19:27Speaker 6: really good. And I was looking at his savant page
- 19:31Speaker 6: because you know why wouldn't you look at that savant
- 19:33Speaker 6: page and you take a look at the changeup is
- 19:35Speaker 6: a ridiculous pitch, something like a forty six percent, So
- 19:39Speaker 6: I can miss rate the sinker, which I don't think
- 19:42Speaker 6: is actually really a sinker. Is the one that you
- 19:44Speaker 6: can get to if you're a hitter. How do you
- 19:48Speaker 6: get to that sinker? Is it laying off the changeup?
- 19:50Speaker 6: Or is it just if you see something that looks
- 19:54Speaker 6: remotely straight? Do you just got to swing and rip
- 19:57Speaker 6: at this guy?
- 20:00Speaker 9: I I can't. I can't tell you how to do it.
- 20:02Speaker 9: I mean, one thing is that he's kind of a
- 20:04Speaker 9: crossfire guy too, so it's not an arm angle in
- 20:08Speaker 9: a situation where you you really get that comfortable. But
- 20:12Speaker 9: you know, generally the fourth team and the sinker are
- 20:16Speaker 9: the only ones that he really throws in the top
- 20:18Speaker 9: third of the zone. So I know it's the dumbest,
- 20:22Speaker 9: oldest thing you ever heard from a hitting coach, But be.
- 20:26Speaker 2: It high, look for look for high.
- 20:31Speaker 9: I mean, I think I'd rather go against that fourth
- 20:34Speaker 9: Seamon thinker than try to hit that change up. Now,
- 20:37Speaker 9: the Mariners, to some extent, have have done well against
- 20:41Speaker 9: the changeup, and that's why I think you know, that's
- 20:43Speaker 9: why you've seen School do some flatter, heavy games in
- 20:46Speaker 9: the playoffs, and you could just flip the script and say, Okay,
- 20:52Speaker 9: we're gonna sit soft and let that the hard stuff
- 20:55Speaker 9: go by.
- 20:57Speaker 2: Uh it is. You know, Sarah's joining us here on
- 20:58Speaker 2: the component Holland. But you buy Good Friends at Georgetown Brewing,
- 21:01Speaker 2: makers of man He's Body's Off and Lucille of course,
- 21:05Speaker 2: Johnny Utah, Pale l and so many hours. Check out
- 21:07Speaker 2: the tavern beer if you can find that in your
- 21:08Speaker 2: local establishment. Maybe here at Tom's. I'm not sure. And
- 21:12Speaker 2: Fantastic Logger easy drinking. Fantastic Beer is a tavern beer
- 21:16Speaker 2: right now, you know, going back to the and Chris,
- 21:20Speaker 2: you guys talked about this on your postcast, and Andrews
- 21:22Speaker 2: and I we've talked about it on the Malliwop Show
- 21:23Speaker 2: before as well, the whole Hey your face, can you
- 21:27Speaker 2: beat a guy four times? Didn't we say that last week?
- 21:30Speaker 2: Hey you know, can you can you beat a guy
- 21:32Speaker 2: three times?
- 21:33Speaker 7: They did.
- 21:33Speaker 2: Now, they didn't beat him necessarily, but they won the
- 21:36Speaker 2: game that he pitched in and started in. You know,
- 21:38Speaker 2: is there data that says I mean, it's probably got
- 21:40Speaker 2: to be massively limited. It'd be regular season for the
- 21:42Speaker 2: most part. But being a guy four times in a season,
- 21:45Speaker 2: is there really something to that or is that just
- 21:47Speaker 2: a sports cliche?
- 21:51Speaker 9: Yeah, I wouldn't. I actually don't think that data helps
- 21:53Speaker 9: you too much because there's not too much there. I mean,
- 21:55Speaker 9: like in terms of, you know, the batter versus pitcher.
- 21:58Speaker 9: You know, when it starts to become meaningful is when
- 22:01Speaker 9: a batter has fifty plate appearances against a pitcher. And
- 22:05Speaker 9: if you look up, you know, even somebody who's been
- 22:08Speaker 9: in the league forever, like Luis Castillo, like you know,
- 22:11Speaker 9: he might have one guy that he's faced fifty times.
- 22:14Speaker 9: I don't even know what he does really, So, you know,
- 22:18Speaker 9: batter versus pitcher is not something that really normally works.
- 22:21Speaker 9: But what is funny is that hidden within there there
- 22:25Speaker 9: are things that teams do you which is, does your
- 22:29Speaker 9: team have a certain you know, the way they swing,
- 22:32Speaker 9: like a tilt. Do they have like very scoopy swings
- 22:35Speaker 9: as a team, or do they are they a team
- 22:38Speaker 9: that's really aggressive and goes and gets the ball out front,
- 22:40Speaker 9: you know that sort of thing. And then there's some
- 22:43Speaker 9: you know, there's some pitch shapes that can can can
- 22:46Speaker 9: face those things, So there might be some signal in it,
- 22:49Speaker 9: but it's not just how they did. It's more like, oh, well,
- 22:54Speaker 9: you know, when I look at the Mariners, the way
- 22:56Speaker 9: that they stand out as a team is they have
- 22:58Speaker 9: good bat speed and uh, they don't have very tilty swings.
- 23:04Speaker 9: You know, they're not the scoopiest of teams. So I might,
- 23:09Speaker 9: uh might attack them low in the zone, you know,
- 23:12Speaker 9: because the flatter your swing is, the better you are
- 23:14Speaker 9: at the top of the zone.
- 23:17Speaker 5: I was gonna ask you know about the Blue Jays.
- 23:20Speaker 5: Can I ask you know about that.
- 23:22Speaker 2: Transition over there, because they lie they lie in wait
- 23:25Speaker 2: for one of these two teams, and they're probably hoping
- 23:27Speaker 2: us Detroit a nice, a little easy trip for them.
- 23:29Speaker 6: Yeah, you know Toronto. And by the way, my pronunciation
- 23:32Speaker 6: of Toronto is just so good. I've worked on it
- 23:35Speaker 6: so hard. That is a very right handed lineup, and
- 23:39Speaker 6: Seattle Mariner's staff is a very right handed staff.
- 23:44Speaker 5: That gives Seattle. If I understand that Toronto has looked
- 23:47Speaker 5: fantastic in.
- 23:48Speaker 6: The series against New York, but there's got to be
- 23:51Speaker 6: a little bit of an advantage there for that pitching
- 23:53Speaker 6: staff going up against those right handed bats.
- 23:55Speaker 5: With all due respect to Anthony Santander and Addison.
- 23:59Speaker 6: Barger, the majority of the big bats they're right handed
- 24:02Speaker 6: advantage mariners.
- 24:03Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean that is that is good. The one
- 24:06Speaker 9: thing that the Blue Jays did really well this year though,
- 24:09Speaker 9: is they put the ball in play. And so, you know,
- 24:13Speaker 9: the when you look at the advanced stats for defense,
- 24:16Speaker 9: Seattle was a bottom five team defensively. There's there's actually
- 24:23Speaker 9: not a lot of agreement because Defensive Run Saved says
- 24:25Speaker 9: that they were an average team, but stackcast says they
- 24:28Speaker 9: were a bottom five team. Either way, it's going to
- 24:31Speaker 9: put pressure on their defense. You know, if you're gonna
- 24:33Speaker 9: beat the Blue Jays, they're gonna be balls and play
- 24:35Speaker 9: and you got to convert them to outs. And that's
- 24:38Speaker 9: that's the best.
- 24:38Speaker 2: Way to do it. You know, Sarah's joining us on
- 24:41Speaker 2: Chris crawfordy internests with you, or Tom's watchbare getting ready
- 24:43Speaker 2: for a l DS game five almost at ALCS and
- 24:47Speaker 2: almost that would have jinxed a lot of things right
- 24:48Speaker 2: there and there. I would have been all kinds of
- 24:50Speaker 2: trouble if I would have done that. I don't want
- 24:51Speaker 2: to do that. Can you translate can you take anything
- 24:54Speaker 2: from one series to the other, because it's Chris mentioned,
- 24:55Speaker 2: I mean, Toronto looks like just an absolute wagon what
- 24:57Speaker 2: they did the Yankees, you know, winning in but dominant times,
- 25:01Speaker 2: dominant times in those four games, two especially offensively. Can
- 25:04Speaker 2: you take any of that or is it hey brand
- 25:06Speaker 2: new pitching staff for both sides the Yankees compared to
- 25:09Speaker 2: the Mariner's pitching staff. Is there anything you can take
- 25:11Speaker 2: from one series to the other like you do in
- 25:13Speaker 2: other sports.
- 25:15Speaker 9: I think you can take a sort of general sense
- 25:17Speaker 9: of like their strengths and weaknesses and how hard were
- 25:20Speaker 9: they taxed? And I think that as bad. You know,
- 25:23Speaker 9: as that series went for the Yankees, they did pretty
- 25:25Speaker 9: well against the blue Jays bullpen, and so you know,
- 25:29Speaker 9: you might think, oh, well, the blue Jays offense is rolling, well,
- 25:32Speaker 9: the Mariners are going to have a better pitch than that.
- 25:35Speaker 9: And we've identified a little bit of a soft underbelly
- 25:39Speaker 9: for the Blue Jays, which is get to that bullpen
- 25:41Speaker 9: however you can, because it's gettable. So that's I mean,
- 25:45Speaker 9: that's those are the kind of lessons that I would
- 25:47Speaker 9: take from a series like.
- 25:47Speaker 6: Tuh moving over to that NLDS just because I have
- 25:52Speaker 6: to ask you about this, Yo actually know, Bo Yamamoto,
- 25:55Speaker 6: what the heck happened there?
- 25:56Speaker 4: You know?
- 25:56Speaker 5: And are the Phillies back in this?
- 26:00Speaker 9: Yeah? The I think they are. And I'm surprised that,
- 26:04Speaker 9: you know, the team that moveses game one only wins
- 26:08Speaker 9: a game a game a five game series, like you know,
- 26:11Speaker 9: twenty percent of time whatever it is, because in a
- 26:14Speaker 9: five game series, you're just asking the team to win
- 26:17Speaker 9: three games. I feel like in a seven game series
- 26:19Speaker 9: you go down two zero, You're just like, oh my god,
- 26:22Speaker 9: this is this is this is a hill too hard
- 26:24Speaker 9: to climb, you know. But five game series, like, okay,
- 26:27Speaker 9: we win two games in it's game five.
- 26:28Speaker 7: Here we go, you know.
- 26:30Speaker 9: So I feel like that one can turn on a dime.
- 26:34Speaker 9: And you know, the Dodgers have the same thing where
- 26:36Speaker 9: you're like, well, if Tyler Glass now only goes four
- 26:40Speaker 9: innings tonight against the Phillies, then you know what do
- 26:45Speaker 9: they do for the next five innings? And Shoreber and
- 26:48Speaker 9: Harper are there? I think this at least goes to
- 26:51Speaker 9: five ashilion daughters, you.
- 26:53Speaker 2: Know, great stuff tell us about rates and barrels. Got
- 26:56Speaker 2: baseball fever here, and so we're hoping it continues past
- 26:58Speaker 2: about eight thirty nine o'clock tomorrow. We'll see if that
- 27:02Speaker 2: happens with their scooble on the mound against a TBA
- 27:05Speaker 2: starter for the Mariners. But tell us about rates and
- 27:08Speaker 2: barrels and what you got going on there.
- 27:10Speaker 9: Well today, whichever may, we did a little breakdown of
- 27:14Speaker 9: the Josh Naylor sign gate.
- 27:17Speaker 2: How oh yeah, we didn't even get to that. Yeah, yes, yeah,
- 27:22Speaker 2: he was.
- 27:22Speaker 9: He was giving signs out for where the target was,
- 27:26Speaker 9: and then the Detroit catcher Dylan Dinglos, started trying to
- 27:30Speaker 9: fake Naylor out. So he's doing a fake signal, fake
- 27:33Speaker 9: target to the picture and then hopping. He was hopping
- 27:36Speaker 9: from inside to outside.
- 27:37Speaker 2: And uh, you know, we had no problem with it.
- 27:40Speaker 2: There's some who do.
- 27:42Speaker 9: We think it's all part of gamesmanship, and if it
- 27:44Speaker 9: led to a walk or two, then it's fine. You know,
- 27:47Speaker 9: it's part of the game. It's been part of the
- 27:49Speaker 9: game forever. But I just thought it was funny the
- 27:52Speaker 9: back and forth where Naylor was giving you know, different
- 27:56Speaker 9: signs and the and the catcher was trying to react
- 27:58Speaker 9: to it. So that was a kind of break we do.
- 28:00Speaker 9: And thanks so much for having me on.
- 28:02Speaker 2: I love that thank you very much. That is, you know,
- 28:04Speaker 2: Sarahs from the Athletic read them at the Athletic as well,
- 28:07Speaker 2: but actually I have to check that out. Thanks enough
- 28:09Speaker 2: for joining us, all right, Chris, wrap it up quickly
- 28:11Speaker 2: with you. I forgot about that part of the thing
- 28:14Speaker 2: with Neil Or that was that was juicy. That's some
- 28:17Speaker 2: good so ill to listen to that later on. That's
- 28:18Speaker 2: that's some juicy stuff. That's a final thought for you
- 28:21Speaker 2: as we headed in the game, Tomore. I know you
- 28:22Speaker 2: guys want the postcast more night, but just a final
- 28:24Speaker 2: thought as we headed to that game.
- 28:26Speaker 5: Just appreciate this. It's fun. I know it's hard.
- 28:30Speaker 6: I know that it'll be extremely disappointing if things don't
- 28:32Speaker 6: go the right way, but like, think about how much
- 28:35Speaker 6: more fun this is than what the last twenty four
- 28:38Speaker 6: years have been. I can't wait. I think they're going
- 28:41Speaker 6: to win. I think they're going to go to the ALCS.
- 28:43Speaker 6: I think they're going to go to the World Series.
- 28:45Speaker 6: But appreciate this because it's going to be fun and
- 28:47Speaker 6: get loud Seattle, Washington on Friday night.
- 28:51Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think you'll have to worry about that.
- 28:52Speaker 2: I don't think we'll see empty sections of seats like
- 28:54Speaker 2: we did in Detroit. I don't think we'll be saying.
- 28:58Speaker 3: Awesome.
- 28:59Speaker 2: All right, Chris, have a great post cast tomorrow. We
- 29:01Speaker 2: will talk to you one way or the other with
- 29:02Speaker 2: Molly wat Monday on Monday, brought to you by simply
- 29:04Speaker 2: said I we will do that then, all right, man,
- 29:05Speaker 2: take care buddy, Thank you so much. See sir, that's
- 29:07Speaker 2: the great Chris Crawford. We'll take a break, come back,

- 29:59Speaker 11: been great, So stay one here. I think the biggest
- 30:01Speaker 11: thing for us is, you know, the way you build
- 30:03Speaker 11: an organization in hockey games, get some excitement, some some
- 30:08Speaker 11: some likeliness around the town, and I don't get people
- 30:10Speaker 11: interested in it, So it's all about growing the game too.
- 30:13Speaker 11: I know they're starting to build rinks around Kirkland and
- 30:15Speaker 11: other areas and that's massively important.
- 30:18Speaker 2: Jordan Eberly, Cracking Captain, after the pregame skate today, Climate
- 30:21Speaker 2: pledged Jerina talking about getting ready for season five and
- 30:24Speaker 2: the Cracking and the excitement level just for sports in

- 30:29Speaker 2: three years ago and the Cracking made the postseason for
- 30:31Speaker 2: the first time in the Stanley Cup playoffs, and hopefully
- 30:33Speaker 2: they'll do that for the second time again this year.

- 31:06Speaker 2: with Alison Brett Festerling. I don't know if she's excited
- 31:09Speaker 2: to hang out with me, but I convince her to
- 31:10Speaker 2: come on the radio today. So here she is. Hi, Allison,
- 31:12Speaker 2: how are you?
- 31:14Speaker 12: Of course I'm excited Ian, And you know I must
- 31:17Speaker 12: say that that great answer from Jordan every we must
- 31:19Speaker 12: have come for a great question asked of him as well.
- 31:22Speaker 2: Listen, I was going to get to that that question
- 31:24Speaker 2: came from Alison Luke.
- 31:28Speaker 7: I thought it was you know it was.
- 31:30Speaker 2: I liked it because of this there's an awareness in
- 31:33Speaker 2: this market. The teams all kind of seem to support
- 31:36Speaker 2: each other. I like that, like there in some ways
- 31:38Speaker 2: there's a competition for the corporate dollars, a ticket dollars.
- 31:42Speaker 2: We're in a major market. You've worked in other market,
- 31:44Speaker 2: shop this is a big market. We have room for everybody.
- 31:47Speaker 2: But as the Mariner's show, if you win, they will come,
- 31:49Speaker 2: and hopefully that happens for the crack of this year.
- 31:51Speaker 4: Right.
- 31:54Speaker 12: I'm not a baseball fan by trade, but you can't
- 31:57Speaker 12: help but get swept up in what the Mariners are
- 31:59Speaker 12: doing and you feel it in the city, and that
- 32:02Speaker 12: brings you along for the ride. And that's exactly what
- 32:04Speaker 12: the Crackton want to and need to do. You know,
- 32:07Speaker 12: you mentioned that we all saw what that playoff bid
- 32:11Speaker 12: did for them in year two. Hockey is such an
- 32:13Speaker 12: amazing sport, especially to see live. There's nothing like it
- 32:17Speaker 12: with the pole of the ice and the speed and
- 32:19Speaker 12: the aggressiveness and the physicality. So if it's winning, it's
- 32:23Speaker 12: going to be even more enjoyable and hopefully all of Seattle.
- 32:26Speaker 8: Will be with us.
- 32:27Speaker 2: Alison, when you get asked this question, I know I
- 32:29Speaker 2: get asked a lot too, but I want to get
- 32:31Speaker 2: your thoughts on this. The biggest thing we hear from
- 32:34Speaker 2: people is, hey, what's the difference with Lane Lambert? Three
- 32:37Speaker 2: coaches in three years? That's got to be a red
- 32:39Speaker 2: flag what's going on? And my answer usually is I
- 32:42Speaker 2: think they found a guy that you know, has a structure,
- 32:45Speaker 2: has a plan, he's no nonsense. I think he's maybe
- 32:48Speaker 2: perfect for this team. But I like what I've seen
- 32:50Speaker 2: so far. You watched all the training camp practices, you've
- 32:52Speaker 2: been around it. What is it about Lane Lambert that
- 32:55Speaker 2: jumps out at you that you like?
- 32:57Speaker 12: Yeah, for sure, and you know, I totally understand the
- 32:59Speaker 12: new reaction that why three coaches in three years? But
- 33:03Speaker 12: For me, the flip side of that is that you're
- 33:05Speaker 12: looking at an ownership and leadership group that said, we're
- 33:07Speaker 12: not willing to stick with something if we know it's
- 33:10Speaker 12: not working. And you know, Lane Lambert to me so far,
- 33:13Speaker 12: seems like exactly the perfect kind of energy that this
- 33:17Speaker 12: group needs. This is a group that has a lot
- 33:19Speaker 12: of veterans who've seen a lot of hockey, played a
- 33:21Speaker 12: lot of hockey, but also some really young players just
- 33:24Speaker 12: breaking into the league. And so what he's doing is
- 33:27Speaker 12: he's structured, he's disciplined. If a drill doesn't go the
- 33:30Speaker 12: way he wants to go, whether it's Captain Jordan Everly
- 33:33Speaker 12: or rookie Berkeley Catton, he stops the drill, explains what
- 33:37Speaker 12: he wants and you know, another word I've heard too
- 33:39Speaker 12: coming out of the room, and the players really seem
- 33:41Speaker 12: to be loving how Lane is coaching and teaching is
- 33:44Speaker 12: fair right. It's no one is above anybody else. The
- 33:47Speaker 12: standard is of everyone and it is high. And that
- 33:51Speaker 12: is what he's going to hold you too. He's going
- 33:52Speaker 12: to communicate with you as a coach, and I think
- 33:55Speaker 12: that the guys really appreciate how he's at least started
- 33:59Speaker 12: this season to get them ready.
- 34:00Speaker 9: For Game one.
- 34:01Speaker 2: Chris Taylor is going to run the power play. Hopefully
- 34:03Speaker 2: we'll see an improvement there, and he's got a nice
- 34:05Speaker 2: truck record in that regard. He's one of the two
- 34:07Speaker 2: new assistant coaches, joining Jess Campbell behind the bench on
- 34:10Speaker 2: the lane Lambert staff. A few additions, not massive additions
- 34:13Speaker 2: in terms of numbers, but they did bring in a
- 34:16Speaker 2: few guys this year, Mason Marshman obviously, Ryan Lindran on
- 34:19Speaker 2: the back end, and goodrow for to Gudrou up front.
- 34:23Speaker 2: The additions there are one thing my thought would be, Allison,
- 34:26Speaker 2: if this team's going to take that next step forward,
- 34:29Speaker 2: it's not just going to be from those guys, It's
- 34:31Speaker 2: going to be from some of the incumbents that we
- 34:33Speaker 2: expect to take that next step to that next level,
- 34:36Speaker 2: Matty Benier, Shane Right, Ellie Tolven and when coppol Kocko
- 34:39Speaker 2: comes back, et cetera. What do you think is going
- 34:41Speaker 2: to take for this team to take that next step?
- 34:44Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, and you know you mentioned Coppocco injured unfortunately,
- 34:48Speaker 12: Riker Evans injured unfortunately, but two big pieces are starting
- 34:53Speaker 12: this season fully healthy. Jordan Eberly, who missed almost half
- 34:56Speaker 12: of last year, and Vince Dunn, who I repeatedly say
- 35:00Speaker 12: is a huge part of everything this team does. He
- 35:03Speaker 12: missed so many games, particularly at the beginning of last year,
- 35:06Speaker 12: and you need him not just to defend, but his
- 35:09Speaker 12: defensive play seamlessly turns into moving the puck up the
- 35:13Speaker 12: ice when he's not out there. You can see it,
- 35:16Speaker 12: you can see the difference. So it's having those two healthy.
- 35:18Speaker 12: But yes, the younger players need to continue to evolve.
- 35:23Speaker 12: One thing coach Lambert says is you're never done developing
- 35:25Speaker 12: as a hockey player. And these younger guys, they're not
- 35:28Speaker 12: even at their cusp yet. You know forwards are going
- 35:30Speaker 12: to be twenty four to twenty five, twenty six when
- 35:33Speaker 12: they're at the height of their powers, if you will,
- 35:35Speaker 12: at defenders even a couple of years later. So they
- 35:37Speaker 12: need to keep growing. And I think that's why the
- 35:39Speaker 12: move of say a Freddy goodrou who comes in this
- 35:42Speaker 12: is a player who's shown that he truly can play
- 35:44Speaker 12: with anyone. He was in Minnesota last year. At points
- 35:47Speaker 12: he was centering the top line, at points he was
- 35:49Speaker 12: centering the fourth line, he was on the penalty kill
- 35:51Speaker 12: he's a shootout performer. So this is a guy that
- 35:54Speaker 12: can work with players at all ranges of their development
- 35:57Speaker 12: on this crack ND team and help bring them along word.
- 36:00Speaker 9: Wherever they are.
- 36:00Speaker 2: I'm glad you mentioned vince Don Allison. I think I
- 36:03Speaker 2: mean the twenty games he missed last season. I think
- 36:05Speaker 2: that was massive for this team. I just it was
- 36:07Speaker 2: we talked about on TV a lot last year. You
- 36:10Speaker 2: can't take a guy at that level out at all.
- 36:12Speaker 2: To wrap it up, just looking ahead, how important is
- 36:15Speaker 2: it just to get off to a good start. They
- 36:16Speaker 2: haven't won a home open or haven't won an opener
- 36:18Speaker 2: opening game yet in their previous four Good news is
- 36:21Speaker 2: the Ducks aren't very good in opening games either in
- 36:23Speaker 2: their thirty two year.
- 36:24Speaker 7: History, so some's got to give to that.
- 36:26Speaker 2: But just with what the schedules had, Vegas here, Saturday,
- 36:29Speaker 2: then a long road trip, how important is it to
- 36:30Speaker 2: get off to a good start.
- 36:32Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean it's certainly. This is a hard question,
- 36:35Speaker 12: right because you want a good start, you want to
- 36:37Speaker 12: set the tone early for expectations delivering results. But it's
- 36:41Speaker 12: also going to be a little bit of tempered if
- 36:43Speaker 12: they can weather this storm early. We mentioned the two
- 36:46Speaker 12: players who are out at long road trip comes right
- 36:49Speaker 12: after these two home games, and that's usually an opportunity
- 36:52Speaker 12: for a team to really take the next level in
- 36:54Speaker 12: terms of coming together as a cohesive group. And luckily,
- 36:58Speaker 12: this first month of play is light on divisional play.
- 37:02Speaker 12: So if they can stay you know, in the five
- 37:04Speaker 12: hundred above five hundred range and get off to looking good,
- 37:08Speaker 12: showing their systems, absorbing their systems, and staying consistent, they
- 37:11Speaker 12: can only grow from there.
- 37:14Speaker 2: I'll see you soon. Thank you so much, looking forward
- 37:17Speaker 2: to another year. It gonna be a great year up
- 37:18Speaker 2: on the desk again this season. Can't wait to see

- 39:19Speaker 2: rosters in order, because well nothing else. The Eagles have
- 39:22Speaker 2: some guys, uh maybe scattaboy, I guess for the Giants. Hello,
- 39:25Speaker 2: Brandon Funston, how are you?
- 39:26Speaker 10: Oh man? You know, before we start talking fantasy football,
- 39:29Speaker 10: I just want to send out a message of Dan
- 39:31Speaker 10: Wilson to say tomorrow it's Kirby and Louis Castillo and
- 39:35Speaker 10: nobody else. We're not touching our bullpen. If those two
- 39:39Speaker 10: are going to take us.
- 39:43Speaker 2: Can you go to Munyos in the ninth at least funds? Okay, okay,
- 39:47Speaker 2: all right, yeah, alright. So basically three or four innings
- 39:49Speaker 2: from each of those guys and that's it.
- 39:51Speaker 10: Yeah, Donald, you let one go until you think they
- 39:53Speaker 10: might need to, you know, tag out, but uh, you know,
- 39:56Speaker 10: and then the other one tags in and then maybe
- 39:58Speaker 10: Munos in the ninth if we're before all lucky.
- 40:01Speaker 2: I like it. I like it. By the way, two
- 40:03Speaker 2: six two eight six ninety five ninety five, if a
- 40:05Speaker 2: line becomes open, we have our regulars back. So uh,
- 40:11Speaker 2: you know, guys like Mike and Ricky that kind of
- 40:13Speaker 2: got pushed aside. I think we've all learned our lesson.
- 40:16Speaker 2: You don't wait until one fifty nine to call in, right,
- 40:19Speaker 2: You just don't do that otherwise you'll get shut out.
- 40:21Speaker 2: So here we go. Let's start off with line number four.
- 40:24Speaker 2: Mike and Edmunds.
- 40:25Speaker 7: Hi Mike, Hi, and Hi Brandon.
- 40:28Speaker 8: Hey, great advice for Wilson.
- 40:29Speaker 9: By the way, did you.
- 40:35Speaker 8: Guys hear Vladimir Guerrero make the call after the game?
- 40:38Speaker 5: No?
- 40:38Speaker 2: What did he say?
- 40:40Speaker 8: The Yankees?
- 40:42Speaker 9: Oh?
- 40:42Speaker 2: I did hear that? Yeah? I did hear that.
- 40:44Speaker 13: Yes, that was awesome.
- 40:46Speaker 2: That was fantastic.
- 40:47Speaker 7: All right, what do you got for us, Mike?
- 40:50Speaker 8: Okay, I can't keep anybody healthy on my team. I
- 40:54Speaker 8: just I'm going crazy. First, i'd liked some positive news
- 40:58Speaker 8: about Lamar Jackson if you have it, and then I
- 41:01Speaker 8: need one of the following three dinged up guys, Xavier Worthy,
- 41:06Speaker 8: Stefan Diggs or Zay Flowers. And thanks a lot for doing.
- 41:10Speaker 2: This, Thank you, sir.
- 41:11Speaker 10: Yeah, Xavier Worthy is ankle shoulder. I think he was
- 41:14Speaker 10: either limited or didn't practice today. I have Stefan Diggs
- 41:18Speaker 10: just ahead of him, and I think Zavier Worthy, if
- 41:22Speaker 10: he doesn't end up playing, Taekwon Thornton could be a
- 41:24Speaker 10: nice guy that you could pull off of the waiver
- 41:26Speaker 10: wire and being a nice play for the Chiefs. They're
- 41:28Speaker 10: they're deep specialists. So Lamar Jackson, I don't think he's
- 41:32Speaker 10: going to play this week either. I think it's going
- 41:33Speaker 10: to be Cooper Rush one more time, good defense in
- 41:36Speaker 10: the Rams, So I think they're going to try to
- 41:38Speaker 10: get by one more week without Jackson.
- 41:42Speaker 2: Fussin, he said good news for Lamar Jackson, all right,
- 41:45Speaker 2: Like that's what he asked for, good news.
- 41:47Speaker 10: Yeah, I think you know him sitting one more week
- 41:49Speaker 10: is gonna make him nice and healthy for week seven.
- 41:51Speaker 2: That's not what I want to do here, but that's fine.
- 41:53Speaker 2: Line number three, Ricky and Tacoma. Ricky, you're back with us.
- 41:56Speaker 2: Last week he got squeezed out, my friend. Good to
- 41:58Speaker 2: hear your voice again.
- 42:00Speaker 9: Yeah, hey, I called it one fifty two, so you
- 42:02Speaker 9: know I tried to bump it even earlier today.
- 42:04Speaker 2: I love it.
- 42:05Speaker 9: I love Gentleman all right, Yeah, good Brandon, yes, Kirby
- 42:09Speaker 9: Castillo all day and then Gilbert for Carle out all
- 42:13Speaker 9: of them.
- 42:13Speaker 2: Got to keep them off the scoreboard. But okay, I
- 42:16Speaker 2: got standard scoring.
- 42:18Speaker 9: I got three running backs, and I need the best one.
- 42:20Speaker 9: I have RJ.
- 42:21Speaker 2: Harvey, Richard Smith.
- 42:23Speaker 12: Kansas City, and.
- 42:25Speaker 2: What's his name.
- 42:26Speaker 9: It's like putting the letter Kendre Miller of New Orleans.
- 42:30Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know which one.
- 42:31Speaker 2: Two.
- 42:32Speaker 10: I would watch this. Alvin Kamara dealing with an ankle injury.
- 42:36Speaker 10: I think that's why we saw Kendre Miller get even
- 42:38Speaker 10: almost like even a share with Alvin Kamara last week.
- 42:43Speaker 10: I actually I would watch that. I think I'm gonna
- 42:46Speaker 10: go r J. Harvey. But just like I said, keep
- 42:50Speaker 10: an eye on that Alvin Kamara injury. If it seems
- 42:52Speaker 10: like it's kind of really if you go up to Sunday,
- 42:54Speaker 10: I might switch that around and go with Kendre Miller.
- 42:56Speaker 2: Oh, I like that. Rgie Harvey, Okay, noted? Uh question, Ricky,
- 43:00Speaker 2: best question today so far?
- 43:02Speaker 7: Next up.
- 43:02Speaker 2: I mentioned this earlier function to Chris Crawford when we
- 43:05Speaker 2: had him on. I said, you know, last week with
- 43:07Speaker 2: all these guys getting squeezed out our lineup was you know,
- 43:10Speaker 2: maybe the Cooper rush of fantasy football calls or as
- 43:15Speaker 2: I mentioned it to Crawford and baseball wise, it's almost
- 43:17Speaker 2: like if Dan Wilson threw Luke Raley at the top
- 43:19Speaker 2: of the lineup. We started last week with Robin beryen
- 43:22Speaker 2: and if I'm just gonna tell you this, he came
- 43:24Speaker 2: on gregarious as you remember, happy Bubbly. It just made
- 43:28Speaker 2: no sense whatsoever. Let's see how it goes today. Robin
- 43:31Speaker 2: Bery in your next up, what's.
- 43:34Speaker 9: The best thing in history of the world? Fellas?
- 43:36Speaker 3: Wow, I'm scared.
- 43:40Speaker 2: Where are we ating in? God? What world are we
- 43:44Speaker 2: living in?
- 43:44Speaker 8: Is in a row?
- 43:45Speaker 10: I don't I honestly don't remember in the history of
- 43:47Speaker 10: this morning show or of this of this show.
- 43:50Speaker 2: That he had two in a row. No, no, no, no,
- 43:54Speaker 2: we certainly have never had Rob happy two weeks in
- 43:56Speaker 2: a row. So this is a this is a different world, man,
- 43:58Speaker 2: we are living in a fall a far different world.
- 44:01Speaker 2: But you know what, Rob, I'm happy for you because
- 44:03Speaker 2: someone's got to win this year and apparently it's you.
- 44:05Speaker 2: So what's your question, fire away.
- 44:08Speaker 5: I got no injuries, so I'm really happy.
- 44:10Speaker 9: Okay, So I need h Chane, Williams or NTM.
- 44:13Speaker 5: That's Williams oh Man two of those three weeks.
- 44:18Speaker 10: Yeah, I think I'm gonna you know, I got ATM
- 44:20Speaker 10: pretty high as well, but I got the other two higher,
- 44:23Speaker 10: and honestly, like give yourself a break and not having
- 44:26Speaker 10: to root for a guy going against the Seahawks.
- 44:28Speaker 2: So there you go, Kiren.
- 44:30Speaker 10: No, I have Kyen higher, I have a Chane higher
- 44:33Speaker 10: than OTM, but I have them all ranked pretty high.
- 44:36Speaker 10: I'm just saying, like, nice thing about that is the
- 44:39Speaker 10: guy I have third. There is the guy going against
- 44:41Speaker 10: the Seahawks.
- 44:42Speaker 2: So all right, yeah, thanks Rob, good luck. If we
- 44:45Speaker 2: have three in a row next week, I think we're
- 44:46Speaker 2: just gonna end this segment once and for all. I
- 44:48Speaker 2: just don't know if we can do it again, Fundston,
- 44:49Speaker 2: I really don't be honest with you. Chris and Beury
- 44:54Speaker 2: and is next up?
- 44:54Speaker 13: Hi, Chris, Good afternoon, Good afternoon, gentlemen. I need one
- 45:00Speaker 13: for my flex spot Romeo dubs, Derrick Henry, Sam Laporta.
- 45:06Speaker 5: Or Rashid Shah.
- 45:08Speaker 10: And how much you say you needed.
- 45:11Speaker 9: One for my full point PPR?
- 45:14Speaker 7: Yeah?
- 45:14Speaker 10: I mean I have Derek Henry all the way down
- 45:16Speaker 10: at number sixteen seventeen at running back, but I still
- 45:20Speaker 10: have him higher than everybody else. Romeo Dobbs, I think
- 45:23Speaker 10: has a good chance to have a decent day, maybe
- 45:25Speaker 10: get a touchdown. He's been a guy that they've used
- 45:27Speaker 10: in the red zone a lot. But I still would
- 45:29Speaker 10: go with Derek Henry just because he's got the best
- 45:31Speaker 10: chance to get you know, a high volume of touches.
- 45:34Speaker 2: All right, Next up, Steven Insultan, Steven Insultan, you're on
- 45:37Speaker 2: with Funston fire away?
- 45:38Speaker 9: What do you got hey, guys? So I need a
- 45:41Speaker 9: full PPR one of these guys for a flex zach
- 45:45Speaker 9: Ertz Shepherd born andrews or Pits.
- 45:51Speaker 10: Uh andrews or Pits And you just need one?
- 45:56Speaker 9: Yep?
- 45:56Speaker 10: Yeah, Well you saw I mentioned Kendrick Bourne last week
- 46:00Speaker 10: because Pearsall and Juwan Jennings are out. I think Pearsall
- 46:03Speaker 10: is gonna be out. Juwan Jennings is iffy, but those
- 46:06Speaker 10: guys aren't healthy and you're probably only gonna get maybe
- 46:08Speaker 10: one of them at best coming back. I like Kendrick Bourne.
- 46:12Speaker 10: Saw the way you know, Seattle threw the ball against
- 46:15Speaker 10: Tampa last week, and the way Kendrick Board played, I
- 46:18Speaker 10: would probably try to go ahead and double down.
- 46:20Speaker 2: On that beautiful two six sixty five ninety five. Let's
- 46:23Speaker 2: get Derek insulted. Next up, Hi, Derek? What's up?
- 46:27Speaker 8: Guys?
- 46:27Speaker 9: Go Mariners?
- 46:28Speaker 2: Let's go?
- 46:31Speaker 9: All right?
- 46:31Speaker 5: I need I need to sit one of these three.
- 46:34Speaker 5: It's a full PPR.
- 46:36Speaker 9: I've got metcalf O, Lave or scott Aboo.
- 46:39Speaker 5: I gotta sit one.
- 46:41Speaker 10: And a full PPR. Ah man, I you know what,
- 46:44Speaker 10: I'm gonna sit a Lave. New England is a very
- 46:48Speaker 10: tough to us, one of the worst. Uh, but I
- 46:50Speaker 10: have one of the worst pass grades for the New
- 46:52Speaker 10: Orleans offense, So UH, go ahead and sit a Lave
- 46:54Speaker 10: in that one.
- 46:55Speaker 2: All right? Last phone call before we go. The massive
- 46:58Speaker 2: amount of texts I tryed to get through as many
- 47:00Speaker 2: we can, and we did have some bulls eyes this week,
- 47:01Speaker 2: which is even better. Let's go to Aaron in Vancouver.
- 47:04Speaker 2: What's up Aeron? Hey, guys, go ems, go ems.
- 47:09Speaker 11: All right, I got a trade to analyze for you
- 47:11Speaker 11: guys to know how Ian likes trades.
- 47:13Speaker 2: I do, but I know so we like that. We
- 47:16Speaker 2: like that. Yeah, we love trade. Trades go to the
- 47:18Speaker 2: top of the list normally, so let's go what do
- 47:19Speaker 2: you got? All right?
- 47:21Speaker 5: And then also one start sit?
- 47:23Speaker 2: Uh? I traded Mark Andrews and Thornton who I picked
- 47:27Speaker 2: up off the waiver wire for Sam Laporta. Was that
- 47:30Speaker 2: a good trade?
- 47:32Speaker 9: Uh?
- 47:33Speaker 10: Yeah, Like you said, I think Thornton got about a
- 47:35Speaker 10: one one more week of shelf life before Rachie Rice
- 47:38Speaker 10: comes back, and then you're probably not thinking about starting
- 47:40Speaker 10: him most week. So it's really in my mind a
- 47:42Speaker 10: week from now this is Mark Andrews for Laporta, and
- 47:45Speaker 10: I definitely want Laporta.
- 47:46Speaker 2: For the rest of the season. Beautiful. All right, that
- 47:49Speaker 2: ends the phones for this week. Let's get to some
- 47:52Speaker 2: text funds and you're proud, you'd be problem man. We
- 47:55Speaker 2: got we have two bulls eyes this week. Two nice
- 47:59Speaker 2: that's a and then a whole bunch of one seconds.
- 48:02Speaker 2: Let's go first, bulls eye standard PPR. Need to Derek Henry,
- 48:05Speaker 2: Shad White, Quinton Junkins, Judkins.
- 48:08Speaker 10: Sorry, I got man, I'm sitting Henry here. It's been
- 48:13Speaker 10: terrible away mean world.
- 48:15Speaker 7: Okay, let's stop.
- 48:16Speaker 2: Let's stop there for a second. What world are we
- 48:18Speaker 2: living in right now? Robs one two in a row
- 48:21Speaker 2: and Derek Henry's getting sadly.
- 48:24Speaker 10: The problem is, I mean, running backs do so well
- 48:26Speaker 10: when Lamar Jackson in there, and that's the that's the
- 48:29Speaker 10: big issue. It just changes the whole complexion of that offense.
- 48:32Speaker 10: But I have Rashard White one spot ahead of Henry
- 48:35Speaker 10: and so it's not like a slam dunk here, but
- 48:37Speaker 10: definitely like Judkins the most. But Baltimore needs Lamar Jackson
- 48:41Speaker 10: back and he needs some guys to get get healthy.
- 48:43Speaker 2: Jamie from Allen, do I start Drake London or Keenan Allen.
- 48:47Speaker 10: I have Drake London as my number two wide receiver
- 48:50Speaker 10: this week, and Keenan Allen's in the low twenty, so
- 48:53Speaker 10: definitely going Drake London.
- 48:54Speaker 2: We have a whole bunch of guys who are incredibly tardy.
- 48:57Speaker 2: One second after the hour PPR wide Receivers, key on Coleman,
- 49:00Speaker 2: Taekwon Thornton. If McLaren can't go.
- 49:03Speaker 10: Yeah, if McLaren can't go, oh yeah, yeah, Terry mc McLaurin.
- 49:08Speaker 10: I think this is Terry mc Yeah, yeah, I think
- 49:11Speaker 10: this is Coleman unless Xavier Worthy doesn't play, and then,
- 49:15Speaker 10: like I mentioned earlier, I think taekwon Thornton. Then you
- 49:17Speaker 10: have to elevate him above key on Coleman.
- 49:19Speaker 2: One second after the hour half point PPR Stafford or Baker.
- 49:23Speaker 10: I gotta check my rankings here. I'm going Baker, but
- 49:27Speaker 10: they have both of them in my top twelve quarterbacks
- 49:29Speaker 10: this week.
- 49:30Speaker 2: Uh still one second after from Ben Hunter, Henry or
- 49:33Speaker 2: Kyle Pitts.
- 49:35Speaker 10: Yeah, I'll go Hunter Henry like the like the throwing
- 49:37Speaker 10: matchup for the Patriots this week against New Orleans.
- 49:40Speaker 2: Only because it came one second after. I'll put this
- 49:43Speaker 2: one out there because we love trade talk. We don't
- 49:45Speaker 2: like defense or kickers, but I'll ask you anyway because
- 49:47Speaker 2: it was one second after defense Cowboys, command or Commanders.
- 49:51Speaker 10: I always have a defensive list ready just in case,
- 49:55Speaker 10: and you know these guys, well, I have the commanders
- 49:59Speaker 10: at home against the Chicago Bears. I still think I
- 50:03Speaker 10: still think you can get some you know, nice return
- 50:06Speaker 10: off of Caleb Williams from time to time.
- 50:07Speaker 2: Fuss. So we're still one second after the hour. By
- 50:09Speaker 2: the way, my god, Mason Taylor or Kyle Pitts, I have.
- 50:14Speaker 10: Like a double check because Mason Taylor's moving up the charts.
- 50:17Speaker 10: I have him just ahead of Kyle Pitts. It's close,
- 50:19Speaker 10: but yeah, he's getting a ton of targets right now.
- 50:21Speaker 10: He's basically the number two option in the passing game
- 50:24Speaker 10: behind Garrett Wilson.
- 50:25Speaker 2: Should I get a handful him that we're two seconds
- 50:26Speaker 2: after the hour? Are you feeling given? Okay? PPR wide
- 50:30Speaker 2: receiver Marvin Harrison or Quinton Johnson.
- 50:34Speaker 10: I would go Quinton Johnson. Johnston's very close. You do
- 50:39Speaker 10: have to watch Quintin Johnston kind of was was limited
- 50:41Speaker 10: with a hamstring issue, so follow that. But assuming everything's good,
- 50:45Speaker 10: then I would go ahead and go Quinton Johnston.
- 50:47Speaker 2: Jackson Dart or Caleb Williams. Full PPR touchdown only, League
- 50:51Speaker 2: touchdown only.
- 50:53Speaker 10: I mean, I think it's you know, you talk about
- 50:56Speaker 10: ten point difference or so in the in the game score,
- 50:58Speaker 10: in the game line, I you know, I just don't
- 51:01Speaker 10: think Giants are gonna be scoring a lot in this
- 51:03Speaker 10: game up tonight. So give me, give me caayleb Williams kid.
- 51:07Speaker 2: From Poor Orchard. Two seconds after I need two out
- 51:10Speaker 2: of three Gibbs, Barkley or MCM so McCaffrey who was
- 51:13Speaker 2: at MCM. I think it's all cross crossby Merritt.
- 51:18Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, he's moved. Jay CM's moving to charts, but
- 51:22Speaker 10: he's not in Saquon Barkley Jamior Gibbs territory. Yet I
- 51:26Speaker 10: do love the matchup and be nice if you could
- 51:28Speaker 10: slide him into a flex spot.
- 51:31Speaker 2: God, this is still two seconds after standard scorer need
- 51:33Speaker 2: a flex s gainwell or dowbtell uh.
- 51:36Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean I think he saw taut go for
- 51:39Speaker 10: two hundred yards last week, and I don't think Chuba
- 51:41Speaker 10: is playing again, and Daddle's going against his old team,
- 51:44Speaker 10: the Dallas Cowboys, So I mean this is slam dunk
- 51:47Speaker 10: for Rico Dawdell this week.
- 51:48Speaker 2: All right, before I grab a few the top, I'm
- 51:49Speaker 2: gonna get this guy because he always text in. He
- 51:51Speaker 2: listens loyally on the iHeartRadio app. Are you're pre sending
- 51:54Speaker 2: us to number one on the iHeartRadio app. Well Ryan
- 51:56Speaker 2: and Scottsdale is happy Funds today. Baker Mayfield, Dak Press
- 52:00Speaker 2: got or Caleb Williams.
- 52:03Speaker 10: Jack Dak Prescott is my number four quarterback this week.
- 52:06Speaker 10: He has as better as good.
- 52:07Speaker 2: Matchup as you can ask for against Carolina. By the way,
- 52:11Speaker 2: can you believe what we have this week? Like that's crazy?
- 52:14Speaker 2: And I'm gonna get to the top of the list
- 52:15Speaker 2: here hanging on my computer. Just froze for a second.
- 52:17Speaker 2: But in fact, I don't come back in now. But
- 52:21Speaker 2: the fact that we had that many in the first
- 52:22Speaker 2: two seconds is a it's a damn record. Okay, half
- 52:25Speaker 2: point PPR on need one of these Cuba camp Scataboo,
- 52:29Speaker 2: Jalen Warren, I would go Scataboo.
- 52:31Speaker 10: I don't think Cuba is gonna play. Obviously. If he
- 52:34Speaker 10: does play, I'd probably go Cuba, but I just don't
- 52:36Speaker 10: think he will, So give me Scataboo.
- 52:38Speaker 2: A couple more. By the way, what do we tell
- 52:40Speaker 2: you trades get to the top of the list? Trade question?
- 52:42Speaker 2: Who's getting the better deal? Davante Smith for Dowdell and J. M.
- 52:45Speaker 2: O and Q. Judkins for Canine Charbonnet and Ferguson. So
- 52:51Speaker 2: that's okay.
- 52:51Speaker 10: So that's Devanta Smith for Dowd and James Williams okay, yeah,
- 52:57Speaker 10: and so give me, give me doubt jameson Williams on
- 53:01Speaker 10: that one. And then that's the other one.
- 53:03Speaker 2: Uh q jud q Judkins for Canine. Let's see, you
- 53:07Speaker 2: know what? He wrote this so poorly. I can't even
- 53:09Speaker 2: read it. Yeah, I'm gonna read it. It's it's you
- 53:12Speaker 2: gotta put periods in there, fellow, don't use the old
- 53:14Speaker 2: series punctuation is key. Too many names, too many names,
- 53:18Speaker 2: too many because my wife says all the time, too
- 53:20Speaker 2: many words, way too many words, using too many words
- 53:23Speaker 2: full PPR. Who gets the biggest hit Friday, Cal, Julio
- 53:25Speaker 2: or Naylor? Oh cow, you gotta go. It's it's the
- 53:34Speaker 2: year of Cal, right, okay, Cal, the year of Col.
- 53:38Speaker 10: It can't bet against you.
- 53:40Speaker 2: I'll ask one more actual question. Should I trade away
- 53:42Speaker 2: Sakuon Barkley and Woody Marks for Omarion Hampton Oman and
- 53:45Speaker 2: Hampton's on it? I al right, and Crosskey merrit, I
- 53:47Speaker 2: wonder if that's like a keeper league Crosskey. Marriage is
- 53:50Speaker 2: starting to come along, right? Uh he is?
- 53:53Speaker 10: I mean, he's that's that's pretty close. If you need,
- 53:55Speaker 10: if you need, you know, if you're kind of if
- 53:57Speaker 10: you can kind of get through the next four weeks
- 53:59Speaker 10: as Hampton is out, Like I would rather have Hampton
- 54:02Speaker 10: and j CM going into my playoffs than than Barkley alone.
- 54:06Speaker 10: I think that, you know, that would kind of like
- 54:08Speaker 10: really help your depth going into the key part.
- 54:11Speaker 2: Of the season.
- 54:11Speaker 10: So I'm okay with that.
- 54:13Speaker 2: Actually, this guy's awesome. I gotta read this one again.
- 54:16Speaker 2: This is fantastic, biggest of the year. Need two of
- 54:18Speaker 2: these three. Brash, Spire, Bizarto two of the three.
- 54:26Speaker 10: Most of the time. Okay, okay, every one of them,
- 54:30Speaker 10: you know, like in terms of heart attacks, like it
- 54:34Speaker 10: goes in reverse order, like I think Bizarreto I felt
- 54:37Speaker 10: more more kind of calm about for the longest. Wow, Brash,
- 54:42Speaker 10: I mean, Brash is generally solid, but he is so
- 54:45Speaker 10: hard to watch because it's it's you know, it's a circus,
- 54:47Speaker 10: it's a roller.
- 54:48Speaker 2: To ride with him. So about Spirespire just you know
- 54:53Speaker 2: what the bed yesterday, so I know he.
- 54:55Speaker 10: Did normally it's pretty solid. But yeah, if you're going
- 54:59Speaker 10: I mean, yeah, I want Bizarro right now. I'm feeling
- 55:02Speaker 10: bizarre though, all right, I love, I love. It's amazing
- 55:07Speaker 10: how good our bullpen is considered in the in the ranks,
- 55:10Speaker 10: and like in terms of how much like anxiety they
- 55:13Speaker 10: give me, It's it's crazy.
- 55:17Speaker 2: For those who know Fun Snelson does fantasy baseball for
- 55:19Speaker 2: the Athletics, so he actually is somewhat up on that stuff.
- 55:22Speaker 7: All right.

- 57:42Speaker 2: John says fiction on the Koug's Jets and Commanders. I
- 57:48Speaker 2: think John's referring to what you may be picking coming up,
- 57:50Speaker 2: because that does feel very jestsmin like in terms of
- 57:53Speaker 2: those three picks. You love yourself some. I don't even
- 57:55Speaker 2: know what you're gonna do. Yet, but you do love
- 57:57Speaker 2: yourself some Jets and Commanders. Anders and I were talking
- 57:59Speaker 2: about that the other day. Not that we were talking
- 58:01Speaker 2: behind your back, because we're on the radio so you
- 58:03Speaker 2: can always hear us, Yes, but but we were talking behind.
- 58:06Speaker 3: Your back, and hopefully they were just glowing things that
- 58:10Speaker 3: I could.
- 58:11Speaker 7: Yes, what do you mean?
- 58:12Speaker 2: Of course they were glowing figure outside of your You
- 58:16Speaker 2: know your tendency to go with the Jets because you're
- 58:19Speaker 2: a fan. Someone's got to be a fan of the
- 58:21Speaker 2: j Et has Jets and and of course d d
- 58:26Speaker 2: Q and the and the Commanders as well.
- 58:28Speaker 3: You know that that is a Monday night game because
- 58:30Speaker 3: I almost went with.
- 58:31Speaker 4: It, and I'm making that mistake twice.
- 58:35Speaker 2: Okay, I was gonna ask you about as well.
- 58:37Speaker 4: I checked thirty times. I already wrote it into our
- 58:41Speaker 4: little tracker. Uh.
- 58:43Speaker 2: And I like listeners that pay attention to what we
- 58:45Speaker 2: do here, especially me. Eagles and Giants is still up
- 58:48Speaker 2: for grabs, apparently on the factor of fiction. Who's going
- 58:51Speaker 2: to chase?
- 58:52Speaker 7: I do chase?
- 58:53Speaker 2: I do chase. My chases haven't worked out this year.
- 58:56Speaker 2: Every time I chase something with me, my Monday and
- 58:58Speaker 2: Thursday chase is not hurked out. Well, I thought I
- 59:01Speaker 2: was dialed in last week. I mean the Rams, the
- 59:03Speaker 2: Rams over the forty nine ers last week was a
- 59:05Speaker 2: slam dunk and then that didn't happen. So I like
- 59:09Speaker 2: my picks as with this. Oh, by the way, real quick,
- 59:11Speaker 2: this is our last pick of the week. Oh yes, tomorrow,
- 59:14Speaker 2: this is our last pick of the week, because yeah, tomorrow,
- 59:18Speaker 2: at this time we'll have the Hawks on taking on
- 59:20Speaker 2: Rutgers of five o'clock tomorrow. In fact, Softy and Fame
- 59:24Speaker 2: will make their last pick of the week today as well,
- 59:26Speaker 2: at three thirty five. Our last pick of the week
- 59:28Speaker 2: is coming up here today at two thirty five. Those
- 59:31Speaker 2: are the last picks of the week here on these
- 59:33Speaker 2: two shows. So with that said, let's get the Factor fiction.
- 59:37Speaker 3: There we go, We're set to go.
- 59:40Speaker 7: Glad you're with us.
- 59:41Speaker 1: It's your shot at our weekly thousand bucks and the
- 59:44Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars grand prize. It's Fact Door Fiction probably
- 59:49Speaker 1: presented by Lucky Eagle Casino and Hotel where every Day
- 59:53Speaker 1: Feels Lucky. Fact Door Fiction is on Sports Radio ninety
- 59:57Speaker 1: three point three KJR.
- 1:00:01Speaker 2: The Factor Fiction is brought to you by the Lucky
- 1:00:03Speaker 2: Eagle Casino, and hotel where every day feels lucky. All right,
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: we're trying to win a thousand dollars weekly prize, ten
- 1:00:12Speaker 2: thousand dollar grand prize, more and all that stuff in
- 1:00:14Speaker 2: a second. But we like to get to the pick
- 1:00:15Speaker 2: right away, because you're gonna text fact fact to four
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: nine four or five one if you agree with jess.
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: You'll text fiction to four nine four or five one.
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: If you disagree with Jessman McIntyre. What is your pick?
- 1:00:27Speaker 3: Yeah, history is not on my side.
- 1:00:28Speaker 4: However, I'm I'm due, and so I'm going with the
- 1:00:32Speaker 4: Ravens plus seven and a half versus the Rams. So
- 1:00:35Speaker 4: Baltimore is obviously a notoriously tough place to play and
- 1:00:40Speaker 4: the Rams. I mean, come on, this is a win
- 1:00:42Speaker 4: win right here. Actually it's a double win, double loss,
- 1:00:46Speaker 4: because obviously we want the Rams to lose, but the
- 1:00:49Speaker 4: Rams are coming in there. I think the Ravens have
- 1:00:53Speaker 4: a very very good shot at at least keeping those
- 1:00:56Speaker 4: to a one score game. So I'm taking the Ravens
- 1:00:58Speaker 4: plus seven and a half at.
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: Home, Ravens plus seven and a half, even if it's
- 1:01:03Speaker 2: Cooper Rush.
- 1:01:04Speaker 3: Even if it's Cooper Rush.
- 1:01:06Speaker 2: You know what, though, I like it because it's a
- 1:01:07Speaker 2: rooting interest game.
- 1:01:08Speaker 4: But that's why I went there, and I was I
- 1:01:12Speaker 4: was looking at Monday night, but I decided to go
- 1:01:14Speaker 4: with my head instead of my heart this week.
- 1:01:17Speaker 2: Yes, that would be good. That would be good. And
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: I like the person of the text line trying to
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: tease you and push you into They almost try to
- 1:01:23Speaker 2: bully you into that is what they did, Like they
- 1:01:25Speaker 2: try to bully you into it.
- 1:01:26Speaker 3: So yeah, no, and it's well deserved.
- 1:01:28Speaker 4: I've been terrible, but I mean, I just I kind
- 1:01:31Speaker 4: of like the parody that we're seeing in the league
- 1:01:34Speaker 4: this year.
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: And I'll say, if the Ravens, if the first of
- 1:01:37Speaker 2: all the Ravens can't keep losing, they just can't. I
- 1:01:40Speaker 2: saw a story today like there's not concerned. There's talk
- 1:01:44Speaker 2: now for the first time ever about the job security
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: of John Harbaugh. Yeah what what?
- 1:01:49Speaker 3: That's what I mean, backs against the wall right now.
- 1:01:51Speaker 2: I kind of like that.
- 1:01:52Speaker 4: And then I like that the Rams having to go
- 1:01:54Speaker 4: with's a ten am Pacific time game, so that body
- 1:01:57Speaker 4: clock thing plays into my mind too. There are travel
- 1:02:00Speaker 4: in from LA to be there, and those fans are
- 1:02:03Speaker 4: no joke, and I just think that they're going to
- 1:02:05Speaker 4: pull out all the stops in this game.
- 1:02:07Speaker 2: All right, Rams or sorry Ravens plus seven and a half?
- 1:02:11Speaker 2: Right plus seven and a half at home against the Rams.
- 1:02:16Speaker 2: Fact four nine four or five to one fiction. If
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: you disagree four nine four or five to one, text
- 1:02:22Speaker 2: in right now fact or fiction to four nine four
- 1:02:24Speaker 2: to five one. If you agree with jest, you text fact.
- 1:02:26Speaker 2: If you disagree, you text fiction. What are you trying
- 1:02:29Speaker 2: to do when a thousand dollars weekly prize ten thousand
- 1:02:31Speaker 2: dollars grand prize one thousand dollars given away every single week?
- 1:02:34Speaker 2: All you have to do to be qualified to win
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: one thousand dollars is get one pick right during the week.
- 1:02:40Speaker 2: If you get more than one right, obviously you have
- 1:02:43Speaker 2: more chances to win one thousand dollars. If you've been
- 1:02:45Speaker 2: playing since the start, you got a chance to win
- 1:02:47Speaker 2: the ten thousand dollars grand prize. You guys know who
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: you are. Standings are up on the website, right, I believe.
- 1:02:52Speaker 4: Yes they are, and it's you know you look at
- 1:02:54Speaker 4: for the last I believe five digits of your.
- 1:02:56Speaker 2: Program four number okay, perfect, And that way you can
- 1:02:58Speaker 2: see where you're at. If you haven't been playing since
- 1:03:00Speaker 2: the start, or at least maybe week two or three.
- 1:03:03Speaker 2: Then you're looking for one thousand dollars every week. But
- 1:03:05Speaker 2: if you have been, you can see where you're at.
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: You know where you are. Normally twenty opportunities a week,
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: seven thirty five with Chuck Bucky, eleven thirty five with

- 1:04:07Speaker 2: you want even more? You really really need a Ravens win. Yes,
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: Ravens think they're desperate for what the whole NFCU West
- 1:04:14Speaker 2: is rooting for a Ravens win along the way too,
- 1:04:17Speaker 2: that would be a nice thing. By the way, Seahawks
