  Speaker 7: Probably because no, no, it's fine. I could see it
• 1:05
  Speaker 7: in your beard. Two Van left field I think has
• 1:08
  Speaker 7: got you more gray hairs than you had last year
• 1:10
  Speaker 7: when we saw you.
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: You know what, And I actually shaved today because I
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: was going to do this with you, because I knew

  Speaker 7: So what I mean obviously, no Tucker, no break. Yeah, fine,
• 1:23

• 1:27
  Speaker 7: field now, and he's like, ah, we see how it.
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: Goes exactly, and we see how he goes and that's
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: that's the plan, right.
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: We not committed to.
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: To that to be uh, you know, it's not on
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: paper yet, but we want to explore that avenue. I
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: think Oz is a terrific athlete, and by him doing that,
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: I allow us to do some things on the field,
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: give some guys some off days. You know, he's going
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: to play some second base, but so far has been
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: good in the outfield.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: He was you know, this is something that.
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: I talked to him in the past, and he's been
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: open to it for years now. So we saw an
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: opportunity now and and we're gonna We're gonna give it
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: a shot, and so far it's been good. He's an
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: incredible athlete and number one, he's leadership, He's he's he
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: will do whatever for this team.
• 2:09
  Speaker 8: You can see him run and catch the ball and
• 2:11
  Speaker 8: throw the ball all that stuff. How are you gonna
• 2:14
  Speaker 8: be able to tell, like, physically, he's getting up there
• 2:17
  Speaker 8: in age, he has a lot of a lot of
• 2:19
  Speaker 8: at bats, a lot of games under his belt. How
• 2:22
  Speaker 8: are you gonna be able to tell physically if it's
• 2:24
  Speaker 8: wearing on him more than second base was?
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: You know what well, you know for me, communication is
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: is the key. You know, he's going to have some
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: take some days and he's going to d h He'll
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: have some games at second base, so it's gonna be
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: a con you know, constant communication with j say to
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: make sure that he's physically ready to do this. We
• 2:47
  Speaker 5: are very much aware about the running, you know, aware
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: about you know, he's leading off the game or leading
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: off the inning at home and he's got to run
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: all the way from let field to get his first
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: at value and only he's got like two minutes and
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: twenty five second. Those are things that I'm constantly talking
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: to Hosey about it, and it's feedback has been it's been great.
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: But again it's early in the process and we're going
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: to continue to do what's best for our team and
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: what's best for Jose.
• 3:12
  Speaker 8: Is this been talked about before because of some of
• 3:17
  Speaker 8: the struggles, not yips, but some of the throws that
• 3:19
  Speaker 8: he's had and his comfort level at second base or
• 3:24
  Speaker 8: is he just the consonmate pro where he's like, you
• 3:27
  Speaker 8: know what, I'll play wherever you need. Second base is
• 3:29
  Speaker 8: where you need me right now because we're pretty pretty
• 3:31
  Speaker 8: good in the outfield. How was that conversation before?
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he has not he has not to be any
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: you know, he has nothing to do with numbers, and
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: it just has to do with our ross.
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: The way is being created.
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: We got we're getting some turnover, we getting some kids
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: that are come from the Mono league, and we will
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: like to have some flexibility, uh Indian field, especially at
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: second base. So Jose is you know, the the ultimate
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: pro and uh, you know he moving to left field
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: really hours to be creative.
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: So again, we'll see, we'll see how it goes.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: But right now, I like where we're at with Jose
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: in left field and the feedback that we getting from
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: him is tremendous.
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: We're gonna talk about that guy right here, who's that?
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: There?
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: You go, your first base You're talking about another ultimate
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: pro Christian Walker and you know, let's see, he's just
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: walked by.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: Let's just talk about it because.
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: I was gonna ask you about him next. So that
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: was actually a difect timing.
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: You know, we we are excited about Christian for for
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: a few reasons. Number one, Uh, the feedback that we
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: got from him, especially from a new third base coach,
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: Tony Perrachica, about his leadership. You know, we talk about
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: the bat and how well that back would play in
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: our ballpark, but also we wanted to improve our defense.
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: Uh and he is the best defensive first basement in
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: the game the last three or four years. So having
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: him around, it's it's been any you know, an impact
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: quickly to how we do our work and the right
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: side of our defense.
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: So excited to have him. Incredible leader. Our guys are
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: really gotten close to him.
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: He's not afraid to share his thoughts about you know, defense,
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: even base running. Something that they did really well in
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: Arizona is the way how aggressed it they ran the
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: basis and having both Tony and Christian talk about it
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: has been has been something really important for us in camp.
• 5:20
  Speaker 8: All right, well you just talked about new third basement
• 5:23
  Speaker 8: or he almost was your second basement. He suck and
• 5:29
  Speaker 8: all all that's been said about you know, the Crawford
• 5:32
  Speaker 8: boxes and oh, he's gonna hit a million homers. Do
• 5:36
  Speaker 8: you have that individual conversation with him or is it
• 5:39
  Speaker 8: kind of like you see him and you're like, you
• 5:42
  Speaker 8: know what's going on?
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: No, you know what he knows what's going on.
• 5:46
  Speaker 5: And we've been we've been interested in acquiring is oparatus
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: for a while because we know how the bat can
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: play in our ballpark. Another thing that both him and
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: Christian bring to the table is the ability to consult
• 5:58
  Speaker 5: the strike zone. Both of them are guys who are
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: in the top in the league and when it comes
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: to pitches, scene pera bat. So that's an area that
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: we wanted to improve offensively, and those guys bring that
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: dynamic to our offense that we need in a year's past.
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: Before I crads, he's gonna go.
• 6:15
  Speaker 7: But you bring parades, you bring Walker. Everyone says, Oh,
• 6:19
  Speaker 7: the Crawford boxes are gonna make them better. Does it
• 6:22
  Speaker 7: really make a guy back because people always say that
• 6:23
  Speaker 7: about Boston to oh, you know, you get her dead
• 6:25
  Speaker 7: pole hitter in Boston, it's gonna make you better.
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: But does it got better? Or but does it make
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: you worse?
• 6:30
  Speaker 7: Sometimes because you pull, you try to hit like I mean,
• 6:33
  Speaker 7: Paride is a dead pull anyway, right, But like a Walker,
• 6:35
  Speaker 7: guy uses the whole field. So like, do you think
• 6:37
  Speaker 7: it'll get in his head, like, oh, I got a
• 6:38
  Speaker 7: dive hook and then you go on the road and
• 6:40
  Speaker 7: guess what the Crawford boxes aren't there.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: Seven.
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah, So that's a good question because we have discussed
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: that about you know, this guy's swing, especially when they
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: pull the ball, like Christian Walker. Anytime he pulls the ball,
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: you know it's it's left left center field, which will
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: play really well in our ballpark. But you're right about
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: Christian like he's more kind of middle middle of you know,
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: likes right center field approach.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: Paridis is just dead pool.
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: You know, he's going to get the head of the
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: bat out and he's just going to pull the ball
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: and hopefully he does that. You know fifteen, you know,
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: fifteen seventeen times in our ballpark, and we know you know,
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: we know he's capable of doing that, but we don't
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: want to change the approach.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: We don't want him to change who there are.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: We just knew that that swing can play in our
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: in our ballpark.
• 7:22
  Speaker 8: Christian's gonna hit dingers out of Yellowstone Park, let alone
• 7:25
  Speaker 8: dyk In Park. So we're we're good to go on that. Nolan,
• 7:30
  Speaker 8: Nolan or not? A lot was being said, did you
• 7:33
  Speaker 8: talk to him? And if you didn't or you did, whatever,
• 7:37
  Speaker 8: But are you surprised he didn't say yes to accept
• 7:41
  Speaker 8: being traded over to you guys?
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: You know what, I never I never talked to him.
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: You know, our front office were working those those that
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: that trade deal and then you know they handle all that.
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: I try to stay away from from any of those conversations.
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: But I did express, you know, when when he when
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: the name came up. Obviously we know how good of
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: a player he is and how good of a fit
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: he will be in our club. But you know, I
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: left it at that. I let Dana and he his
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: group do that, and and you know they're always looking
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: for ways to improve our roster. But when his name
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: came up, you know, obviously it was something that you know,
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: the great possibility adding a piece like a player like that,
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: you know, go glove caliber and other bright hander hitter
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: that can we know he can pull the ball and
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: will play really nice on our in our in our ballpark.
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: So but yeah, I pretty much stay away from from
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: those conversations. I try to focus on trying to get
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: the voys ready to play.
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: What about break what about Yeah?
• 8:41
  Speaker 7: Yeah, having him Kyle Tucker was here for long his
• 8:45
  Speaker 7: whole career. Yeah, so when you walked in the first
• 8:47
  Speaker 7: day here in Palm Beach, where you're like, hey, oh waity, oh, it's.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Different, right.
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: It's not that it's good or bad or whatever. They
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: went to where they went.
• 8:56
  Speaker 7: You guys traded Kyle, But it's just different when you
• 8:58
  Speaker 7: walk in and you've seen somebody for years and years
• 9:00
  Speaker 7: and years in the same spot.
• 9:02
  Speaker 8: You know.
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: And I had this with you know, in my speech
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: with the guys the first day in camp.
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: We have had turnover for for a while here, right.
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: We have lost pitchers like Garrett Cole, uh, you know,
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: shortstop Carlos Correa, uh at first basement, like Julie Goriel.
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: We lose Tucker, we lose George Springer. And one thing
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: that we haven't stopped is doing is We're still winning.
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: We're still winning the West, we still find ourselves going
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: to Championship series, going to the Wall series. I remember
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: the year that we lost Korea. The player who replaced
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: them not only want to go Glove, but he also
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: was the MVP of the World Series. So we have
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: ways to replace those guys with leaders, guys who are
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: very talented and capable of taking over that position and
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: allow us to continue their winning culture.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: So but yeah, to your to your point, it's weird.
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: You know, even the conversation when he signed with the
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: Red Sox h is because we've you know, you get
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: to love those players, not only what they do on the.
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: Field, but I said, I's a human. So yeah, we're
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: going to miss him.
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: But you know it's time for us to turn turn,
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: you know, turn the page and focus on the the
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: players that we have here in camp. Did you yell
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: at A see And you know, throughout the whole entire process, me,
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: A C and A J.
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: We were constantly yeah, I mean we were.
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: We were just trying to get a feel for what
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: was going on. So we were talking, but they weren't
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: get they weren't giving too much, so.
• 10:29
  Speaker 7: I text a c I text Dolegs cor and I said,
• 10:32
  Speaker 7: are you getting Bregman? And then he said, oh, you
• 10:34
  Speaker 7: meant that for my brother Joey. He was a third
• 10:36
  Speaker 7: base coach. So then I text Joey and said, hey,
• 10:38
  Speaker 7: are you guys getting Bregmant And he said, oh, you
• 10:40
  Speaker 7: must be talking about us.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: This is this to my brother.
• 10:43
  Speaker 7: I'm like, well, one of y'all is not telling me
• 10:46
  Speaker 7: the truth. And then obviously he went to b I.
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: Know we were texting back and forth, me aj Alex,
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: just trying to get a feel for where everybody that.
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: So they weren't we weren't giving each other a lot,
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: but we all express our our wish to get you know,
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: me getting him back and and and you know Aja
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: wanting to add a winning caliber player like that, and
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: and Cora bringing someone like that that can you know,
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: bring that winning presses to that to that ballpark. So
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: you know, he chose Boston and and you know, I
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: wish him all the best.
• 11:16
  Speaker 8: That's Puerto Rican on Puerto Rican crime. You can't be
• 11:19
  Speaker 8: you guys gotta you gotta look out for each other.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you know we do, we do. But when he
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: comes to this kind of stuff.
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: You know, you're trying to put You're trying to put
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: the best players on the field.
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: He's definitely one of the best starrt basements in the
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: in the game.
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: So you know, Alex Alex Cora had has a good
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: one over there in camp for sure.
• 11:37
  Speaker 8: Who replaces him? Who replaces him? That swag, that like
• 11:41
  Speaker 8: that edge that I think Braggy bought brought to the team.
• 11:46
  Speaker 8: Do you know who's going to replace him? Or you're
• 11:48
  Speaker 8: hoping somebody steps up?
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: You know what I'm hoping. I'm hoping some some of
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: our guys will step up. But my pick here to
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: click is going to be Jeremy Panna. Jeremy Pania has
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: that presence he's been You could see him having that
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: moment in the club pass when he will like to
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: speak up, but you know, Braggy or Josey say something.
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: But I could see Jeremy Penya taking some of that
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: leadership role.
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: You know on the position, player Sid Hunter Briyan is
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: someone who also very sneaky. He he you know, he's
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: taking over some of those young pitchers. So I could
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: see Hunter Brown also having some of that leadership that
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: we saw from from guys like jv uh in the past,
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: Brown Brown if if if we get that done, that'sould be.
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: That'd be pretty nice.
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: That'd be pretty nice. Okay, before we end, mccullors is
• 12:38
  Speaker 6: on track right.
• 12:39
  Speaker 7: Yes, I don't know opening day, but he's on track
• 12:41
  Speaker 7: definitely to pitch this year ninety four point seven the
• 12:44
  Speaker 7: other day.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: Yes, he looks really good, man. He I'm so happy
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: for him.
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: He's worked so hard to get to this point, and
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: I keep saying he's gonna play.
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: He's going to pitch some big games for us. He's
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: super close.
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: You know, he hasn't pitched in two years, so we
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: we need him to go and pitch some innings in
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: Triple A and build up that way. But you'll see
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: him pitch some some games here in spring training.
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: He's closed. His stuff looks good.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he's mindset. He's mind he's mindset hit. He's mindset
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: is in the right play. I'm excited about him, man,
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: I'm really this guy's pitched one of the biggest game
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: for us. I remember seventeen being on the other side
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: watching him start against one of those big games against Yankees.
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: So it's in him.
• 13:24
  Speaker 7: Just gotta stay healthy, not thing before we let you go.
• 13:26
  Speaker 7: I saw Cam Smith in there, monster. I mean, he's

  Speaker 5: And then once you put down on the baseball field,
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: his skill sets is off the chart.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: The power. He actually is a really good runner. You know,
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: can play third.
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: You know, if you could put him in the outfield,
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: I'm sure he's athletic enough to do it.
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: Over there.
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: We are excited about him. I'm excited about his future.
• 14:08

• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Hey?
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: Oh wow?
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: First of all, all right, anyway, how are you?
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: Oh wow? Good?
• 15:00
  Speaker 7: I see this guy's always smiling, but I gotta ask
• 15:02
  Speaker 7: him this. Did you see the peaker Armstrong play yesterday?
• 15:04
  Speaker 7: I did not, so that he got a He got
• 15:06
  Speaker 7: a base at the left, the left fielder through to
• 15:08
  Speaker 7: the cutof man, the cutoff man through it in the
• 15:10
  Speaker 7: crapper the center field No one was backing up. He scored.
• 15:13
  Speaker 7: So Kratz wants to know who's supposed to be where
• 15:15
  Speaker 7: because the center fielder was backing up the left fielder,
• 15:17
  Speaker 7: and he said the right fielder was sleeping and the
• 15:21
  Speaker 7: throw in to the cutoff man, which is right, okay,
• 15:23
  Speaker 7: and then the cutoff man just second he missed the
• 15:27
  Speaker 7: second ball. So the right fielder got to be in
• 15:30
  Speaker 7: that area, of course, Yes, there here, there we go,
• 15:34
  Speaker 7: there's the throw of the cutoff the right field and
• 15:37
  Speaker 7: there's nobody.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he's got to be there to back up
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: that play. How do you teach that?
• 15:43
  Speaker 7: Like, are you telling jose al tve Hey, listen, I
• 15:45
  Speaker 7: know you played second base, but you got to back
• 15:47
  Speaker 7: up the center fielder.
• 15:48
  Speaker 6: There's a throw to third. You gotta back up this.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: No doubt about it.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: I always tell the outfitters that's that's somewhere to go
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: on every freaking play. You know, if you're not quite there,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: you got to be in that area because what we
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: try to do is keep those guys from going to
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: extra ninety feet.
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: I love it's what's the biggest challenge for jose I
• 16:03
  Speaker 7: want to know, do you take him out there every
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: day and you hit funk gos to him? You shoot
• 16:07
  Speaker 7: funk go balls to him through the machine.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: We've done everything with Hosey. We've had hit him ground balls,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: hit him fly balls. We got the machine out there
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: working on him coming in on the low liners, going
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: back on balls over his head, side the side, and
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: he's taken to it very well.
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: What's the biggest challenge?
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: You know what the best at jose l two is
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: a he's a baseball player, and I think that's one
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: of the best compliments you can ever get.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: Up an athlete, especially a guy who's played professional baseball.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: He's that guy.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Uh, you know, his head is always on a swibble.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: He's always been a guy. And I remember when he
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: first came up. You know, he's just one of those
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: guys that was was a sponge. He was always looking
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: for information. He absorbed it and he went out and
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: put it in play.
• 16:46
  Speaker 6: What's the biggest challenge.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Biggest challenge, honestly, besides the glove.
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: Like I was, I was laughing at him because he
• 16:52
  Speaker 7: walked out and he showed me his glove and it
• 16:54
  Speaker 7: was it looked like because he's used to the little,
• 16:56
  Speaker 7: tiny second base.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Of course, I think the biggest challenges will be for
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: him was just basically running off, running in from left
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: field to the dugout every night. Especially, That's what That's
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: what a fun is, right right, especially if he has
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: to lead off inning. You know, he's used to that
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: short walk, but now he's got to run in and
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: make sure you know he's he's ready to go if
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: he's leading off the inning. So that's just him getting
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: his baseball. I mean his outfield legs on in him,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: his outfield lungs on him.
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: And uh.
• 17:22
  Speaker 7: Cratchy, I know how many times have we talked about
• 17:26
  Speaker 7: that outfielders. You look out on the outfield, right catchers.
• 17:29
  Speaker 6: Are back there.
• 17:29
  Speaker 7: They're guys throwing knuckleballs and splits in the dirt, and
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: you got the outfield out there going between pitches.
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: Oh wait, let me try this. Let me right. I mean,
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: he's like outfield legs about.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: Nobody works harder than the outfield.
• 17:45
  Speaker 8: Come on, come on. But to be honest, you have
• 17:50
  Speaker 8: been in this game for a long time. Yea, how
• 17:54
  Speaker 8: how recently? If you start hearing, well, you know what,
• 17:57
  Speaker 8: we gotta start tracking how many steps he and we're
• 18:00
  Speaker 8: in the third base dugout for this stadium. So maybe
• 18:04
  Speaker 8: we'll give him a day off. Come on, come on,
• 18:07
  Speaker 8: be honest.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: You're trying to get me in.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: I'm hey, let me tell you that when I got
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: back of the game last year, se guys were these
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: traps around the waist keeping up how much sweat there,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: how much they're perspiring.
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, are you kidding me? If that was
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: the case that I played? But I would never take
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: you there because that s went like a pig when
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: I played.
• 18:29
  Speaker 8: That's right, But how how much do you do you
• 18:31
  Speaker 8: do you honestly worry about it? You you are so
• 18:34
  Speaker 8: locked into the person, like in his headspace, how confident
• 18:37
  Speaker 8: he is. You're positive, But how much do you really
• 18:40
  Speaker 8: worry about that? Like, Hey, I know you were always
• 18:43
  Speaker 8: at second base. Now you got a little bit further
• 18:46
  Speaker 8: to go. How much do you worry about those legs?
• 18:48
  Speaker 8: Because we talked about a lot last year with Judge
• 18:50
  Speaker 8: transitioning to center field out of right field, and there
• 18:53
  Speaker 8: was a huge discussion how much do you worry about
• 18:56
  Speaker 8: it when the second basement going to left.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: I don't to be honest with that, really, Jose's prepared.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's one of the guys that come in
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: this took camp every year in shape, and we don't
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: have to worry about him as far as, you know,
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: getting ready to play because he's always prepared.
• 19:09
  Speaker 7: What about a dyke on the park. It's not a
• 19:13
  Speaker 7: normal left field like it would be like going to Wrigley.
• 19:16
  Speaker 7: We're normally you know when you played at Wrigly, the
• 19:19
  Speaker 7: gaps that come in instead of go out right. So
• 19:22
  Speaker 7: there's a little bit But dykon has angles and with
• 19:24
  Speaker 7: the Crawford how do you tell him where You can't
• 19:28
  Speaker 7: really teach him that until he gets out there.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: That's exactly rights.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: And if the key to that is having a really
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: good center fielder, you know, and I think we got
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: one in Jake Myers. And being that his gloff side
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: is in that left field gap is going to help
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: him a whole lot.
• 19:41
  Speaker 8: What about what about your done? Where's the value? Because
• 19:44
  Speaker 8: we had Joe on here, we had Dana on here,
• 19:46
  Speaker 8: and they were talking about the best value for this
• 19:49
  Speaker 8: team to put the best line up out there. What
• 19:52
  Speaker 8: can you work with your don to maybe get a
• 19:55
  Speaker 8: few games out in left field or a few more
• 19:57
  Speaker 8: than what he had, or just improve in the game
• 20:00
  Speaker 8: as it is out there.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Well, I think the biggest thing is his health. If
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: he's if he feels like he can go, he'll be
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: able to go.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: He usually tell us if he if he's able to
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: get out there, and if he's out there, we're gonna
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: put the work in.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: But he's a guy who doesn't just want a d
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: H every day.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: You know, if we can get him two to three
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: games a week out in the outfield, I think it's
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: gonna help us. And that way we can get a
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: Jose off his feet and he can.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: D X four us.
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: What's your what's your plan? Because we're just talking about
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: dyke On and Alvarez.
• 20:25
  Speaker 7: He's an adequate left he's not he's not awful, he's
• 20:27
  Speaker 7: he's adequate out there. But you take Hosean and you
• 20:30
  Speaker 7: go to Dikon Park and they have the wall. We
• 20:33
  Speaker 7: used to his visitors, and I've asked people this, We
• 20:35
  Speaker 7: used to just tell our left fielder to stand at
• 20:36
  Speaker 7: the corner and that way, if you know, if you
• 20:38
  Speaker 7: go to your right, you don't, you know, not going back.
• 20:41
  Speaker 7: And if you know, you know, you can go back
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: to your left. If it's over your head to the right, it's.
• 20:44
  Speaker 6: Off the wall. Play it off the wall. It's a
• 20:46
  Speaker 6: home run. What do you tell the home guys, especially
• 20:48
  Speaker 6: a guy like Cozie that's new out.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: There, Well, we got what mostly where we're gonna line
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: him up is right at that cut because again, balls
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: that are hit over his headscarb were probably gonna be
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: out of the ballparking off the wall. He just got
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: to you know, it's off the wall. He's just got
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: to back off and try to keep those guys to
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: a single or possible double. But for the most part,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: that gap part, Uh, you know, the only way he's
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: gonna get out there and be able to handle that is,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: you know, game time, game time, and we get there
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: for a couple of days before the season starts.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: He'll get his work in there. As a matter of fact,
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: he did a little bit during the Yeah.
• 21:18
  Speaker 7: Send them send him up. Hey, Hosey, sorry, you gotta go.
• 21:21
  Speaker 7: You and Dave are going to dyke on theer work
• 21:23
  Speaker 7: from now.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: He's gonna be fine out there. I really do believe
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: that he wants to be out there.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: He's he's feel to rejuvenated and you know right now
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: he's having a blast out there.
• 21:32
  Speaker 8: We talk about the we talk about the guys that
• 21:35
  Speaker 8: other people in New York talk about here because we're
• 21:37
  Speaker 8: not in camp every day, a lot of talk about
• 21:40
  Speaker 8: Cam Smith. Now. The GM came on here and was like, yeah,
• 21:44
  Speaker 8: you know, we love see him at third base. Are
• 21:46
  Speaker 8: you like wait wait wait wait, Like I like this
• 21:49
  Speaker 8: guy in the outfield. Do you have to like pushing
• 21:51
  Speaker 8: pool and like kind of argue with these guys like, hey, yay,
• 21:54
  Speaker 8: we're working with the outfitters here. My guys stay in
• 21:57
  Speaker 8: the outfield, like I think he could be one of
• 21:59
  Speaker 8: our guys.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: Well, we'll see.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: He started to get his work in out there the
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: last couple of days or so, and uh, I don't
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: know what the plans are for him as far as
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: the outfield played, but he's starting to work with us.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: And uh, you know, this kid is a really good athlete.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: He's got a great attitude and he wants to play man.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: He wants to he wants to be a big leaguer
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: and I think he's got a good chance of. If
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: it's not start starting with us, maybe sometime during the
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: course of the season he'll be up fighting for him. Uh,
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: we haven't had those meetings.
• 22:26
  Speaker 7: Okay, Okay, I understand, I understand.
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: So any Myers has plated to play centerfield.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: Jake, Jake is out centerfielder, right.
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: Field with no Tucker.
• 22:38
  Speaker 7: I mean, you did lose a guy that's pretty good
• 22:40
  Speaker 7: out there and right well, no doubt about it.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: You know, we got that's the part that's open. We
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: do have Chas McCormick got there.
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: With speak of the Devil.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: There he is.
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: We're looking for him to have a bounce back of
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: the offensively because we know what he can do different defensively.
• 22:53
  Speaker 6: I like it all right.
• 22:55
  Speaker 8: First base coaches, we have a lot of first base
• 22:58
  Speaker 8: coaches on here. You guys usually kind of lay low.
• 23:01
  Speaker 8: Where do you find that value on this roster in
• 23:05
  Speaker 8: getting guys to be able to steal more bases, getting
• 23:07
  Speaker 8: guys to read pictures? Where do you find that value
• 23:11
  Speaker 8: the most?
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: Well, I think it's very important, and most of the time,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: you know, we have it. We have keys on these
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: guys if we're looking to try to steal bases. But
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: my biggest thing is, yeah, you know the base still
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: in part of the game is back, but going first
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: to third is more for me, is just as important
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: as still in the base. And I think with the
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: kind of lineup we have in the past, you know,
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: we didn't have to do that much running because we
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: had guys that could bang, you know, guys get the
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: first base.
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: You know, guys getting balls out of the ballpark.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: But you know, we we we're constructed a little bit
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: differently this year, and you know, from an offensive standpoint,
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: we plan on putting more pressure on the defense by
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: trying to steal more bases and going first to third.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: And you know, I know a lot of teams say, hey,
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: we you know, we're gonna go to spring chain and
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: we're gonna work on first to third. But you know
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: there is an art to it, you know, knowing the
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: outfit his arm, knowing their arm strength and our arm accuracy,
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: and also just knowing the speed of the ball that
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: was out there too, and knowing your speed. And the
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: thing is too, My biggest thing with these guys is,
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: don't be afraid to get thrown out here in spring training,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: because you know, here we are in March. Who the
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: heck's gonna remember you getting thrown out? Uh, you know,
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: in a spring training game in the month of July.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: Com So we're here to work on it right now.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: We get thrown out or whatever mistakes we make doing
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: the course of spring training, we work on it. We
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: get better, no, and we'll put it behind us. I
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: want to know this because I was in the base dealer.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: Crafts was in the base dealer.
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: What do you whispering?
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: Guys here? Right?
• 24:26
  Speaker 7: Because as you get over first base and in the
• 24:28
  Speaker 7: first base coach would never say anything to me. They
• 24:30
  Speaker 7: just like, there's one out, don't do something stupid, And
• 24:32
  Speaker 7: I'm like, okay, well you get these fast guys over there.
• 24:35
  Speaker 7: What are you whispering there?
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: What the biggest thing? I just give them the time
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: and they already know the key. I reminded them of
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: the keys when we get there.
• 24:42
  Speaker 8: Uh you know this.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: We always tell him this right here too. You know,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: if the guy's slight step, there's no sense of trying
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: to steal his base. But for the most spark, they
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: get the time. I can't remember selling at the call
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: to Tucker. Once I gave him the time and he
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: felt like he would he could go, he would go,
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: And that was the one thing I did like about him.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: We got a few other guys over here. That's the
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: same way. They get the time. They know that time
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: is high. They're ready to go.
• 25:01
  Speaker 6: Who's leading Who's leading the Houston Astros and stolen bases?
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: This year, it's going to be Jeremy Pania. We gotta
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: bet he's going to get fifty fifty. He's going to
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: steal face.
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: Whoa no biceps?
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Well, i'll tell you what not.
• 25:15
  Speaker 6: He owes me a car, A car, not like not
• 25:21
  Speaker 6: like a dinner.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: A car.
• 25:22
  Speaker 8: You got a car, a.
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: Four wheel car with like he's yes, exactly, Wow, Okay,
• 25:29
  Speaker 7: krats ever won no car.
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: I know that, Hey, twenty stolen bags for him last year,
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: thirteen the year before, and eleven.
• 25:40
  Speaker 6: Get fifty bags this year? Oh Man said thirty? Yeah,
• 25:46
  Speaker 6: he said thirty.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: He's gonna have three.
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: Oh well, I need more on this before we go.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: How is he going to steal fifty? I mean, has
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: he talked about how he wants to be insanely more
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: aggress on the bases? Is his sprint speed faster this year?
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: Is not slow, obviously, but is his sprint speed faster?
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: And what kind of car are you getting if he
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: ends up with forty four?
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Well, we really haven't talked about the car yet, but
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: I know it's gonna be an expensive one.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: But it's all right, No seriously, but Jeremy's real fast.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: He reached pitches.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Well, he's always ready to go in this year, you know,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: you know it's a good chance he's gonna have the
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: green light because he didn't have it last year. He
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: stole twenty plus bases, so he get the green light.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: This year, he'll have thirty at the half. He had
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: fifty something before the season's over.
• 26:34
  Speaker 7: If he gets fifty bases, I'm here next year. I'm
• 26:38
  Speaker 7: here in spring training next year because I'm gonna drive the.
• 26:41
  Speaker 6: Car up, I'm gonna back it in.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: Sounds good.
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: Oh, that's gonna be that's gonna be great day Astros camp.
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: I would love to see that. Well, Dave, this was awesome.
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: Thank you so much for joining us. Have a great
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: rest of camp.
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: Thanks Scott, Thanks Eric Woo.
• 27:00
  Speaker 8: The fifty even if he comes up short and you
• 27:03
  Speaker 8: get thirty five from Jerry Pana, that's big.
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: He's a thirty at the half, thirty at the half.
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: That's the outfield instructor and the first base coach. I
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: know we're kind of talking about that and he came
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: on quick, but I love to hear the expectations like
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: that and set big goals. I think if he said
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: thirty or thirty five, we would have been like, Okay,
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: he's going to get after it. But he was saying
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: that he didn't have the green light in the past. Kratz,
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: So does that mean tell me how much of a
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: difference that is?
• 27:39
  Speaker 8: Huge? That's a huge difference because as a guy that
• 27:43
  Speaker 8: never had the green light, you sit there and you go,
• 27:46
  Speaker 8: all right, well, one of the opportunities that with the
• 27:49
  Speaker 8: green light that I can take advantage of there's so
• 27:52
  Speaker 8: many scattering reports, is this guy does he come set
• 27:56
  Speaker 8: here when he's going home and here when he's picking over, Like,
• 28:00
  Speaker 8: there's so many things that like all I need because
• 28:03
  Speaker 8: in the minor leagues, for teams I played on, I
• 28:06
  Speaker 8: had the green light. If we had a tell, you
• 28:09
  Speaker 8: could have the green light. I had a season. I
• 28:11
  Speaker 8: think I had nine in one season, seven in another,
• 28:14
  Speaker 8: or maybe I'm going a little too high, but you're
• 28:17
  Speaker 8: seven for seven. You just continue to get an opportunity
• 28:20
  Speaker 8: to run. And those are things that you want to
• 28:23
  Speaker 8: take advantage of, even as a slow guy. If the
• 28:26
  Speaker 8: numbers match up and there's a tell that matches up,
• 28:30
  Speaker 8: you can go and you are safe every time, no
• 28:32
  Speaker 8: matter who's behind a dish.
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: This doesn't always correlate, but the sprint speed right now,
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: for Jeremy Pana this past season, ninety eighth percentile, I
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: was looking, I was like, ah, maybe it'll be like
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: in the eighty range. Ninety eighth percentile sprint speed to
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: help tell the story aj of why they're like, yo, dude,
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: you gotta steal more bags.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Let's do it.
• 28:51
  Speaker 7: He's got to get on base first, right, So he's
• 28:53
  Speaker 7: got to get some singles, go take some walks. He's
• 28:55
  Speaker 7: got to get on base. Jeremy's always been a kind
• 28:57
  Speaker 7: of a power doubles homer guy. But he gets on first,
• 29:00
  Speaker 7: he can go. And by the way, cards, I never
• 29:02
  Speaker 7: had the green light, and even if I did, I
• 29:03
  Speaker 7: didn't want to steal because that's ninety more feet I
• 29:05
  Speaker 7: had to run, and I had to try to run fast,
• 29:07
  Speaker 7: and I would be breathing way too heavy if I
• 29:09
  Speaker 7: had to steal a base. So I was like, there
• 29:11
  Speaker 7: were times that'd be like, you can get a baser,
• 29:12
  Speaker 7: and I'm like, I'm just gonna stay where I'm at.
• 29:14
  Speaker 6: Hope the guy behind me hits a home run.
• 29:17
  Speaker 8: I was barely I was barely playing, so the extra
• 29:20
  Speaker 8: ninety feet that I could get to help the team.
• 29:22
  Speaker 8: That way, it doesn't take three hits to score me
• 29:24
  Speaker 8: from first just too.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: By the way, you're right, I mean the on base
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: percentage not super high for him, so that'll be a key. Here,
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: take some walks. Joining us right now, Marisa, you play
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: a bunch of positions. I heard you're running the music
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: in the clubhouse.
• 29:39
  Speaker 8: Now.
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: Great to have you on. How you doing, IM good?
• 29:41
  Speaker 9: How you doing? How you doing we're doing well.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: Is it true? What kind of music you're playing everywhere?
• 29:48
  Speaker 9: From Luke Comes to Madonna to anything.
• 29:54
  Speaker 7: I wonder, this is what I want. He's playing second base.
• 29:56
  Speaker 7: I just asked him, I said, are you full time
• 29:57
  Speaker 7: second basement? We've had this conversation. She said, no, I'm
• 29:59
  Speaker 7: going to play off it well Sunday Sunday. And I
• 30:01
  Speaker 7: asked him how many? How many flight balls? How many
• 30:04
  Speaker 7: zero fly balls? He's taking the spring.
• 30:06
  Speaker 6: Right, so think about that.
• 30:08
  Speaker 7: He played second base today and then Sunday he's gonna
• 30:10
  Speaker 7: play outfield. He hasn't taken one flight ball, but he's
• 30:11
  Speaker 7: athletic enough. We played enough positions that he can do it.
• 30:15
  Speaker 10: Yeah, it's it's that's not you know, people don't realize
• 30:17
  Speaker 10: sometimes I apologize to when I was telling EDJ like
• 30:21
  Speaker 10: I apologize to like some of the coaches when when
• 30:23
  Speaker 10: they try to do that with a young guy, because
• 30:25
  Speaker 10: sometimes I make it look easy and it's not.
• 30:28
  Speaker 7: He does make it look it's not make it look
• 30:30
  Speaker 7: easy for sure. Uh second, baby, Well, let's tell us
• 30:34
  Speaker 7: what would you rather play?
• 30:35
  Speaker 8: Good?
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: Outfield?
• 30:36
  Speaker 9: Second? I love second Second.
• 30:38
  Speaker 6: So this offseason you called up Hosey and you go Hosey. Sorry,
• 30:41
  Speaker 6: but I'm second.
• 30:42
  Speaker 10: You're no, actually I got oh you a big, big dinner. Yeah, no,
• 30:47
  Speaker 10: you know, you know he's great. He's been the one
• 30:50
  Speaker 10: of the greatest second basemen and in the in the league.
• 30:53
  Speaker 10: I mean, I got a chance to to play for him,
• 30:55
  Speaker 10: and when he got hurt in the in the WBC,
• 30:58
  Speaker 10: I mean I was able to cover for him and
• 31:00
  Speaker 10: it was fun. It was fun, and I'm excited for
• 31:02
  Speaker 10: this year. He's a big part of the team and
• 31:05
  Speaker 10: I think he's gonna do great.
• 31:06
  Speaker 9: He's gonna do grand left field.
• 31:08
  Speaker 8: Mauricio, congrats on finally passing me on the home run leaderboard.
• 31:13
  Speaker 8: When we were teammates. You probably never were going to
• 31:16
  Speaker 8: pass me on the home run leaderboard, but you finally
• 31:18
  Speaker 8: hit your thirty second home run for your career. For
• 31:20
  Speaker 8: congratulations thirty one.
• 31:25
  Speaker 9: Thanks Goatsy, appreciate it. It's been a long road for
• 31:28
  Speaker 9: those thirty.
• 31:30
  Speaker 8: It has been a long road. You slowly get him.
• 31:33
  Speaker 8: But I want to go back to the I want
• 31:35
  Speaker 8: to go back to the music mix. How long did
• 31:39
  Speaker 8: it take you to, like, slowly, allow you to get awks,
• 31:43
  Speaker 8: allow you to get on the bluetooth and play your
• 31:46
  Speaker 8: music because you can't just you can't just stroll into
• 31:49
  Speaker 8: Houston and be like, hey, guys, you want to listen
• 31:51
  Speaker 8: to my mix?
• 31:53
  Speaker 5: No?
• 31:53
  Speaker 9: No, it was so in the gym. Every time I
• 31:55
  Speaker 9: go into the gym, I put my music on.
• 31:57
  Speaker 10: Depends on the day I put it on, and people
• 31:59
  Speaker 10: will ask who's playing this song, and I'm like, that's me.

  Speaker 10: So sometimes I get Tucker suggestions and Tucker will give
• 32:13
  Speaker 10: me the his his iPad and then I'll put some music.
• 32:16
  Speaker 9: And that just just went about it like that.
• 32:19
  Speaker 8: Do you switch it based on the city that you're
• 32:22
  Speaker 8: in or the person who's starting that day, or is
• 32:24
  Speaker 8: it just how you feel the vibes.
• 32:27
  Speaker 10: So kraw Kraw Brandon Crawford, every time we play, we
• 32:30
  Speaker 10: play when I was in San Francisco, he put the
• 32:32
  Speaker 10: music depends on who pitch, So that's when trying to
• 32:34
  Speaker 10: follow depends who's pitching. I put music on so that
• 32:37
  Speaker 10: we had a little bit of County because Hunter Browns
• 32:39
  Speaker 10: starting so so, No, we're getting.
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: There, all right.

  Speaker 7: How not how are you getting How did you become?
• 33:07
  Speaker 7: Did you fall in love with baseball seeing on TV?
• 33:09
  Speaker 7: Did you fall in baseball?
• 33:10
  Speaker 10: I remember, I remember the I don't remember the first day.
• 33:12
  Speaker 10: I remember just having, you know, just being on the
• 33:15
  Speaker 10: baseball field. My dad played, my brother played, just watching them.
• 33:17
  Speaker 10: And you know, since when you when you're a kid,

• 33:32
  Speaker 10: day I said I want to play in the big leagues.
• 33:34
  Speaker 10: And no only that there was never for my country.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: I mean it was.
• 33:38
  Speaker 9: It was a it was a long row from a dream,
• 33:40
  Speaker 9: but you know, I ended up paying off.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: Wow, it was it was pretty crazy.
• 33:45
  Speaker 7: That's like the coolest thing for me because I was
• 33:47
  Speaker 7: thinking that when I looked at I was like, oh,
• 33:48
  Speaker 7: that's right, he's from Honduras.
• 33:50
  Speaker 6: I don't know of any other now because you see Panama.
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: I tell people.
• 33:55
  Speaker 10: I tell people like I tell the some of the
• 33:57
  Speaker 10: guys like it's like watching a Dominican guy play for Real.
• 34:01
  Speaker 9: Madrid and soccer. Okay, that's that's that's how that's how
• 34:04
  Speaker 9: I feel.
• 34:05
  Speaker 6: Is that your squad?
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 34:06
  Speaker 6: Real Madrid?
• 34:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 34:07
  Speaker 7: Oh yeah, okay, okay, all right, last one before we
• 34:10
  Speaker 7: let you go, we just had Dave Clark on here.
• 34:12
  Speaker 6: He said, Jeremy Paine, you can get fifty bags.
• 34:15
  Speaker 9: I believe it. I believe it. Yep. He's a sprinting.
• 34:18
  Speaker 9: It's a sprint back and back in high school too.
• 34:20
  Speaker 9: So he can fly. He put the burner down. He
• 34:22
  Speaker 9: can fly. He gotta get more green light from Joe.
• 34:24
  Speaker 6: So there, you guys heard it here. It's Joe's fault. Now,
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: it's not David, it's not JP. It's Joe's fault. If
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: he doesn't get it. Well, hey, love that.
• 34:35
  Speaker 9: Thank you, Thank you guys, Thank you, Mauricio.
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: Appreciate you. Great to talk to you. Good luck the
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: rest of the spring.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: Yes, he loves you.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: Yes there, all right, let's do our bet MGM futures.
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: By the way, krats, everyone's scrambling to go check their
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: Jeremy Pane is stolen paste totals.
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: After the show, They're like they don't have enough running
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: for it.
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: Oh no, I'm sure you checked all right. Number of
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: NL East teams to make the playoffs? One at least one?
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: Is that plus six hundred? Oh no, no, exactly one? Sorry?
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: Is that plus six hundred?
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: Two?
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: Is a minus one twenty five? Three? Is that plus
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: one seventy and four? Is that plus six thousand? Interesting
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: that two leads the pack here to make the playoffs.
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: You don't think that the Phillies, Braves and Mets will
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: make the playoffs?
• 35:31
  Speaker 8: I mean it's good, that's good. I mean, what is
• 35:36
  Speaker 8: minus one twenty five? I love, I love the value
• 35:39
  Speaker 8: of plus one seventy to make to all for all three.
• 35:42
  Speaker 8: I think three are gonna make it. I don't even
• 35:44
  Speaker 8: think it's gonna be that close.
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: I think what you're doing here is it's some insurance
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: against one of those teams just falling apart from three
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: four major injuries. Yeah, it's the only way that I
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: can look at it.
• 36:04
  Speaker 8: I don't know, but I just surprised me. This surprised me.
• 36:07
  Speaker 8: I really thought it would be closer, you know, minus
• 36:12
  Speaker 8: one ten maybe for two in three. Like, I just
• 36:15
  Speaker 8: don't see how there's but it shows how hard it
• 36:19
  Speaker 8: is to do what they did last year and have
• 36:23
  Speaker 8: three teams into the playoffs. But four as a four
• 36:26
  Speaker 8: is a no go. Any do not touch that at
• 36:31
  Speaker 8: plus six.
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: Thousand, agreed, Yeah, that's that's a definite no go. But
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: here's the thing, right, you tried to do the math.
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: You've got six teams making the playoffs. You're gonna get
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: one from the Central. You're gonna get you know, probably
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: the Dodgers, and you would think the Diamondbacks out west.
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: But to me, I'm like, the East has three really
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: strong ball clubs that feel like more of a short
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: thing this year to get in. But you never know.
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: If there's a couple surprise teams in the Central, it
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: could mess things up. But anyway, we'll be right back
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: after we tell you about your cash back for second
• 37:04

• 39:20
  Speaker 8: I mean, this dude was, this dude was next to you.
