• 0:30
  Speaker 1: the other day?
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: I did it Saturday night in Saint Louis. So I
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: figured out what a good place to throw my last
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: ball in a major league mound?
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: How to go?
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: It went well? You know, got a nice pop out
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: four pitches in, so I sold them for a first
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: pitch pop out. First time I've on a ball since
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: April first. So it worked.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Did any teams call?
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: No, I haven't heard anything, but had a little hope
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: to it going in there, so I'm sure I won't
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: get any calls.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: Oh you want with the socks up? Look at you?
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Hey, they don't they don't make the They don't have
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: that big league cut, that's for sure. So they didn't
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: make it all the way down.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: That's awesome. How how awesome are those guys by the way.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: No, it was cool to you know, you know how
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: you guts be back in the locker room. Was It
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: was the fun part, right. Those guys are having a
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: heck of a time. They're getting to travel around, so
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: I enjoyed that part of it.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Some of those kids have played, you know, competitively and
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: in a lot of different leagues and they're getting to
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: shine on that stage. So it's good for him, and
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: it's good for baseball, you know, bringing a lot of
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: young fans to to the ballpark and you know, seeing
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: a nice show.
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: When's the last time you're seeing that ballpark packed out
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: that much?
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Man, I know it. I got to go back to
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: the playoff days early in my career to really kind
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: of hone in on that kind of that kind of
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: a crowd for sure.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Are you ready for this side? Are you ready for
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: the media side? A little dabble today, talk trades and
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: a little analysis, the whole deal.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to it, you know, and we all
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: like to talk shop a little bit and stay involved
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: as much as we can. I took it a little
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: bit of time off to get away from it. Now
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: I'm getting back into it and really enjoying being a
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: fan now and then also, you know, using the things
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: that I learned over the years playing too, so it'll
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: be fun.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: You probably look at top they're like, yeah, I Todd five,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: it could be a star and this I think I
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: could do something.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: I'm half a star star round.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: You know, he's been putting on a show since he
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: was twelve years old. He knows what he's doing.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: That's just like you, Sam, you know, you know he's
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: a big little league star.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you guys have been in the spotlight since your kids.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: He had a little better run there. So for me,
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: I've had to really come along since then. But he
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: was he was a grown man among boys back then.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Hey, we're about to get into a veteran signing. Before
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: we do that, what was the closest you got Did
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: you get any calls where I guess in February or
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: March you thought this might take me over the top?
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Did you get close or you were you? I know
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: you had a line. When we last spoke to you
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: were like, hey, I got a line. It's not going
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: to be met. I think we guessed on what that
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: line would look like, and even if it was pro rated,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: if it took you into a couple months of the season,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: but I don't remember ten twelve something like that, where
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: a team had to give you a number that would
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: convince you to get out of the house.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, my number the whole time was was eight. One
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: for eight was the number, and if with some incentives,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: nobody ever really got there, six was floated out there
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: here and there. And then once spring training started and
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: the regular season started, I got some calls, you know, like, hey,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: what's one for one for five or six? But the
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: problem was that everybody was offering minor league deals because
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: they're like, oh, seasons already started, we don't know when
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: you're gonna be ready, blah blah blah. I was like, oh, man,
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: I'm good, that's it. I'm done. So that was kind
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: of the gist of it. At the end.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: There you go, Wow, you shut your number, that's it,
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: and you stick with your guns.
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: You know, at the end of the day, he's got
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: a family that he wants to hang out with. But
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: if somebody's gonna go to what he wants and what
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: he wants to match, give him credit. You've always been
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: like that. You're a guy of stature, you're a guy,
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: well mannered, and you're not gonna let anybody break it.
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: That's why I loved your brother. You're you're always straightforward.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Everybody honest. You want honest, that's the guy you want
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: to talk. Yeah, Hey, here's my number. You want to
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: talk me out, I'll go Otherwise.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: You respected, You respect that for sure.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and you look back at it now, with what's
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: going on, I should have maybe stayed in shape for
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: the trade deadline.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: Who knows, right right, there's nobody available. That's the beauty
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: of it. All right, So then let's kick this because
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: it's a perfect day to talk about the signing from yesterday.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Let's charge the mound, charge out, all right, let's do this, Todd, Father, Lancelaine,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: and myself covering David Robertson to the Phillies sixteen million
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: dollars pro rated, so he's going to get himself in
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: the sixth range, give or take. But Phillies needed bullpen
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: help and lance much like what you put on the table.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: David Robertson waited until late July to star because he
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: had a number in mind, and of course he got
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: to that sixteen number. Now we're deep into the season,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: he's only going to pitch about a couple months. He
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: got optioned as soon as he signed, so he can
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: get himself ready to go. It's a total cost to
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Philly of about twelve million dollars because they get taxed
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: one hundred and ten percent on every dollar because they're
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: over the fourth luxury tax number, which I think is
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: called the Steve Coen tax from the Mets unofficially, and
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: that Robertson gets himself about five and a half six
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: and he'll be up soon hopefully to be able to
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: help this team. So what do you think of this
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: unique deal that was pulled off by David Robertson, who
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: represents himself.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Now, I thought it was a good deal for both sides. Really,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: you know, you de robb is going to get what
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: he wanted to get. That's how he rolls, and it
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: ends up working out well. Phillies don't have to give
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: up any prospects for him. So you're looking at a
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: you know, down the stretch. Here you get a guy
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: that you can trust. He's done it in the playoffs
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: and he's done at a high level. So and knowing him, man,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: he's going to be ready to go. He's done this
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: before when he was reh having his own Tommy John
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: back in the day, and then signed late in the
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: season and put up good numbers. I think back with
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Tampa back in the day. So, uh, he knows what
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: he's doing, and I think he'll be ready sooner rather
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: than later. You know, a couple of weeks down there,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: get get some games under his belt, and you know
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: that's a that's a good pick up for the Phillies
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: for sure.
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: Listen, he's his own agent. This guy understands what he's
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: capable of. He's understands what he's worth. Then he didn't
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: want to die anything less than what he wanted. I
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: mean maybe maybe a little bit, but you know, you
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: get it home, You get a taste a little bit
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: of what home life is, you know.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: I'm sure he probably loved it with his kids.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: But again, if he has an opportunity to play for
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: August for a couple of months and make five and
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: a half million dollars, I mean, who wouldn't say yes
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: to that? So Lance, you should have stayed in shape.
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: Damn it got him, Nye.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I hear you. Everyone's like, hey, ask he can
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: get there. I was like, if I only had to
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: throw one inning, you know, every other day, that's a
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: little different story. But if you're looking at him a
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: hundred pitches, then you know that's gonna be That's that's
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: a totally different ballgame. You need a month or two
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: to get ready to go for that.
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: Easily blow out in two months. Just guess ninety eight
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: plus you could do that.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: He didn't you see me for one at a time. Yeah,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: early on in the early on in the off season,
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: some teams are starting to float the idea of closing.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: And then it was funny because they're like, hey, do
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: you want to close? I was like, I think that'd
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: be fun. They're like, yeah, we're gonna give you this,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: but you might start too. I was like, Hey, if
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: you want me to start, you're gonna pay me like
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: a starter, and if you want me to relieve, you
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: can pay me like a reliever. So that was where
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: a team started trying to get me as a reliever,
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: but use me as a starter, give me a little cheaper.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: It was their idea. I was like, we're not going
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: to do that either.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Wow, trying to get the reliever rate. That's creative. I
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: know that. Yeah, time for a quickie break. Todd Father
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: and I are going to tell you about Hughle, but
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: it's mostly going to be Todd Father because I'm going
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: to take a sip.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: Well, we're talking about Huel twenty seven vitamins and minerals.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: It's a complete meal. Let's listen.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: We all have busy schedules of Scott's sipping it down
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: and looks delicious. It tastes delicious when we're on the run,
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: we need something to eat quick. And guess what Hewel
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: is there all different flavors. Scottie loves them. I love them,
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: and I love how variety packed it is. And we
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: can eat them anytime of the day.
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, check out the website. There's bars. There are so
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: many different flavors. I love the Black Edition, chocolate, thirty
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: five grams of protein, strawberry shortcake, coffee, caramel, cookies and cream.
• 8:23

• 8:42
  Speaker 1: fel all right, so so David Roverson's forty years old.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: He hasn't pitched since September twenty ninth. He did the
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: private bullpen session for teams the other day and clearly
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: it went well enough that there were multiple teams going
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: after him. Craig Breslow is there representing the Red Sox,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: and Robertson ends up going with Philly. I'm sure it
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: was a money thing for the most part. They probably
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: offered the most. It's his sixteenth season now, he's coming
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: off with three double oera Godfather sixty eight innings or
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: outings last year for the Rangers. At ninety nine strikeouts
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: in seventy two innings, it's obviously a really good k
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: per nine number, even from a reliever for a Phillies
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: team that ranks in the bottom ten in bullpenny ra
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: How quickly do you think he can be a factor
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: for them? And is there a chance he even ends
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: up closing out games for them? Because here's Albarado is
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: not going to pitch for them in the playoffs since
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: he got popped for PDS.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: Well, there's no telling what he can do. And I
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: think at his stage and where he's at. He's not
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: going to be like, hey man, I got to be
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: the closer. I got to be the seventh eighth inning guy.
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: He's going to do whatever they tell him. Just understanding
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: and playing with the guy especially, you know, this could
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: be his last little goal around here. He just wants
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: to play. His cutter still plays. It's a nasty pitch.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: He learned it from Mariano Rivera. As we all know,
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: he still throws in the nineties and with that cutter
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: going one and now he's developed a little bit of
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: a sinker and that big breaking pitch.
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: It's a good pitcher.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: No tell him what he can do, so he'll be
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: ready to pitch whenever they want him wherever, and he's
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: not afraid, man, give him the ball.
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: He's always been clutch.
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: He's always been that guy, starting with the Yankees, and
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: all of a sudden moving around, he's got the best
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: caffs in baseball.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: And that's that with him.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Lance. What do you think it's going to take for
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: him to get back. I know you mentioned obviously it's
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: easier to come back as a reliever, but what does
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: that look like for someone who hasn't been pitching obviously
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: in any semblance of real games, and all of a
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: sudden he's thrust right into the thick of a major
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: league season when everyone should be in mid season form.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: You did one late signing, right.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: I did. I did one late signing, and it was
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: the most miserable first month and a half I ever
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: had in a season in my life. So, but that's
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: you know, you're looking at starter, right, you got to
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: build up the endurance, the up downs and stuff like
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: that as a reliever. Most likely he's been throwing live
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: BPS to get ready. I don't know exactly what is
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: what his schedule was like, so knowing him, he'll be
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking two weeks and maybe maybe three at the most,
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: so he'll be ready to go. You're looking at mid August,
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: so you get a month and a half of him.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: And like Todd said, he didn't care where you want
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: him to pitch. He's just go go. He's goy to
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: go get his three outs, and he's gonna do it
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: at a high level. And he's done it for a
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: long time at a high level. So uh, I think
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: it's a really good pickup man for a team that's
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: that definitely needs a back end guy, like you said,
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: with the suspension, so it's a it was a no
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: doubt or for any team that needed a guy.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: How much does this help Philly top either? Do you
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: think that they're going to get themselves another bullpen enough?
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: I think it helps him enough.
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: I'm not gonna go over the bridge and say, you know,
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: definitely going to be a playoff team win the NL least,
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: but this helps him enough. Another key cog and you know,
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: honestly a guy that's been there before with the Philly
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: so we understand that it's not a guy that's just
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: not brand new to the So he's going to come
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: in feel comfortable and ready to go once they put
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: him up there. And I think it helps them just enough,
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: you know, if that's for lack of a better.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Answer, right, But okay, so we're ten days ish away
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: from the trade deadliner. Ten days exactly. It's on the
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: thirty first. It's a Thursday, so not this week, but
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: next week on Thursday, we'll be doing hours and hours
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: of coverage on foul Territory. How much more do you
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: think the Phillies need to be a World Series winner?
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: Because this winning window is going to close sometime soon.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: A lot of their guys have been around for a minute. Also,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: some of them could end up leaving. Schwarz's going to
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: be a free agent after the season. What else do
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: we need? Do we need one outfielder? And in my
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: mind I need another reliever. I need another preferably high leverage,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: but you know, at least a guy that can pitch in,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: you know, the seventh or eighth inning. The circle of
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: trust in the playoffs gets very tiny.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: I like their lineup. I still like their lineupk I
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: like their starting staff.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: I do.
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: If they do want to sprinkle in another starter there not,
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't be opposed, you know, I know that that
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: would help. But again, you know, I think the biggest
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: thing in trade deadlines are the guys that are going
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: to come in in the fourth and fifth inning and
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: all of a sudden, like all right, we need two
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: winnings out of you though, those long relievers, and you
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: understand it. For some reason, the playoffs now, the last
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: couple of years, pitchers don't go too long, Scottie Lance,
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: you see that, and it's kind of unfortunate. Coaches have
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: shorter leashes, and now your bullpen's like, shoot, I gotta
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: I gotta go back to back days or maybe back
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: to back to back, so they got to be ready.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: So the more of those the better.
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: And if you have opportunity to get them, trade a prospect,
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: their prospects for a reason. So they haven't done anything
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: yet in the big leagues. And I've always said that
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: lance whether you agree with me or not, Oh.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: I definitely agree with you. That's that's why you have them,
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: so you can trade them for what you need to
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: go win a playoff series or a world series. So yeah,
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: I think it's definitely a back end reliever and there's
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: gonna be some out there, and Dombraski is not afraid
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: to go get what he needs to get. So I'm
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: looking forward to seeing what they do with the deadline.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Maybe get a maybe get an outfield bat from the
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: right side too, so a reliever, an outfield bat, And
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: especially with Robertson signing, that's a that's a good little
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: deadline for him.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: I would think, Yep, I'm with you, and it's a
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: good point. This first one doesn't cost you anything but
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: money for an owner who is not afraid to spend it. Hey,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Josh Hart, who had a sick year with the New
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: York Knicks, apparently as a baseball fan, and this was
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: from almost a week ago now, but we caught it.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: It was a post about how Paul Skeens has a
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: one two o e r A in July, hasn't won
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: a game since May. Can't make this stuff up from
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: a fan, and then Josh Hart of the Knicks replies,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: for the love of God, this is malpractice. Someone make
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: MLB force a trade. True passionate, passionate.
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I didn't know he was ready. We were
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: in rocking for Pittsford power. I don't know, probably not.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: Then.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know where he's from. Maybe he's from the
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: area and that's why he's well, no, could right, you wouldn't.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: If he's from the area, then you would want to
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: keep him if you can.
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: I love how he's into baseball though, I appreciate that.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: I like it, But Lance, I mean I.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Love I think that we can force the trade too, right.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, A little different. It's a little different. There's
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: not much. I was going to say, there's not much
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: he can do. And also as far as the wins,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: I got nothing for you.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: But that's tough. That's a tough one. Too. Man go
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: throws the ball well and gets no run support. That's
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: just where they're at right now.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to change anytime soon. I mean,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: they're pushing themselves toward maybe the second or third worst
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: record in baseball this year. It's getting that bad. And
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: we know that they got they got beat up a little.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: They lost two out of three right to the White tux.
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: I think that, Yeah, well they lost yesterday.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: We know that they get swept.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Did they get swept?
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: That's interesting air, that's.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's not the series unlocked in on anymore.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Todd Father takes center stage for this. When we got
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Yankees blue Jays firing up for the week.
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: I've never been more excited for a Blue Jay Yankee
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: game and a.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: Long time I agree, long time come.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Jays have won ten straight at home. They swept the
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Yankees last time around four games earlier this month. That's
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: when they took over first place and they haven't looked back.
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: This is a good And we're going to talk about
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: more Yankee stuff a little later.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: About jazz.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: This guy I'm looking at right across with the banana jersey,
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: he's gonna have some really good insight about what would
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: happen next on certain on people on second base. If
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: you if you're doing sign steel, oh, I would love
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: to hear what he means, will.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: Get leasing the game a little bit.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: This is the perfect the perfect model type A.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: Right, we'll get there. But are you surprised we got
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: one minute? You surprised the Blue Jays looked this good
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: right now?
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: No, not really. I mean you look at that lineup
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: and their starter span. They've got good ball club. Last
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: year was just a bad year. Sometimes it happens, injuries,
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: things don't click. But they have all the pieces to
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: be good and they're starting to show it and there
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: and they're playing active baseball and then you know, when
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: they start doing that, that team will roll because they
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: feed off of each other very well.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, right now they're in control.
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: It's gonna be tough, it's gonna be a battle, and
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: this is I think this is really good for baseball
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: for one and for two, it just hasn't been like this,
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: so it's kind of exciting, honestly. You know, as a
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: Yankee guys, of course, you know I'm rooting for the
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: Yankees at the end of the day.
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: That's what I've always have, But this is.
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: Really exciting for the al least, and I think it's
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: exciting for the Tampa too.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: They're right in the mix too as well.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Go for baseball and Canada's ALLUS one team definitely. Well,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: you know about the best place to buy, sell, trade,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: or look for that special card in your world. It's
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: called Arena Club and air Kratz just went through a
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: little slab pack experience and you went bag. You went
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: for the Ruby Pack.
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: I love it.
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: I love clicking on the Ruby Pack and knowing that
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: I'm going to open something that is going to be epic.
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: I got a cal Ricans junior autographed one of forty two.
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: I'm keeping it right now, but I would love to
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: have it in my hands, so I might even have
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: them send it to me already graded, everything taken care
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: for me.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: That's right. You want to hang it up and stare
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: at it all day, go for it. But if you're
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: in there to get something else or to sell it away,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: you can do that. They've got the buyback program, or
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: you can put it on the marketplace yourself. Tons of options.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: This is where the best cards live. It's arenaclub dot com.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: Slash foul and use the code foul for twenty percent
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: off your first slab pack, or if you'd like to
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: purchase a card, twenty percent off your first card purchase
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: again arenaclub dot com slash foh u L use code
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: fo U L injury suck. Let's run through a few.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: We're gonna start with one Alance's former ball clubs. Here
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers looks like some good news on Max Munsey
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: that his return could be a lot sooner than anticipated.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: Is already swinging a bat, he's jogging, he's throwing. That's good.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: The lineup always seems to tick off when Max isn't
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: in there. Do you feel that lance going back to
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: when you faced the Dodgers and months he was there,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: What kind of a bat is he on the pitching
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: side to face and kind of switch things up.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's unafraid to take his walk and he can
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: leave the ballpark at any time. So you're looking at
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: a lineup that it definitely gets deeper. You get guys
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: where they're you know, they're guys that can play multiple positions,
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: can kind of get locked into more of that months
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: he's locked in a third, he's locked in the middle
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: of the lineup. He's driving the ball, he's taking his walk,
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: so that's gonna be a big pickup for him. And
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: linked in the lineup with you know some sock when
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: he comes back for sure.
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Mokei's struggling a little bit. Man struggling.
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: That's that's one sentence that rarely gets talked about or
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: ever brought up because he never struggles, and you know,
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: it is what it is. He even said, I've never
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: done it.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: It's all new.
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: I've never been to bed for this long. Well, welcome
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: to eighty percent of my career and everybody else's yeah,
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: and everybody else is.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: But hey, he is human. He is human. Listen.
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: Sometimes pitchers get your brother and you just got to
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: mega cognizant effort to keep what you're doing, keep your
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: mind right, and listen, a snap of a finger, this
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: guy will be five for ten with three homers. So
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: I'm not really worried about him. But yeah, at least
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: you know, you see something like this, he's coming out
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: and expressing it and letting it out instead of being like,
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: oh no, no, I'm going to pitch away, or no,
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: I don't worry about this.
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: He's feeling it. He's feeling it and he's human too. Yeah.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: I mean you look at his career, He's never I
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: don't even think, been close to sub average on the
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: ops plus side of things. One hundred league average one
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: year twenty seventeen, he was one of eight. Every other year.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's deep into the one hundred, so significantly
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: better than league average. And this year he's at ninety
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: three and he's ninety one games into his season. I mean,
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: that is a big difference for someone like him Lance.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: Last year that number was one forty five, year before
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: one sixty nine, year before that, one forty four. I mean,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: this is a guy who's and those numbers are superstar status.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: If you're one forty oh ps plus and above, that's
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: your superstar. So this is a huge turn for him.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: There's still time. I always wonder too about the position,
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: or maybe I'm overthinking that, but I just feel like
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: it's a lot more work with shortstop, and even though
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: he's handled it pretty well, he made this change really
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: late in his career. It could take a different toll
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: on your body. I know outfield can too, but I'm
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: just always wondering. You know, it's still weird for me
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: to see him at shortstop versus right.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you never know, that could be something there, injuries
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: and all that all in the new position. I guess,
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: you know, maybe that's something they do. They put him
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: back to the top of the lineup, putting back in
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: right field or something like that, and you never know
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: he might take off. But Mookie, like you said, he's
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: never done this, so be interesting to see how you know,
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: he's finally kind of hey admitted it and said, hey,
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: I got to be better, and you know, I got
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: to figure it out. So you know, you can't count
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: Mooki out anytime. He's been so good for so long.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: So like Todd said, it could be five for his
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: next ten with three homers and then right back where
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: he needs to be. So Mooki's too good to be
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: down for a whole year.
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: And I think the smart player is putting him back
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: in the leadoffh just because of the sole fact pitch
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: number one is usually a fastball, and he's ready for
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: those fastballs at all time, and all of a sudden
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: that click boom, double in the gap, single to ride homer.
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: He's always ready for pitch number one, And I think
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: that's the best part, and move a guy to the
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: one spot you know you're gonna ultimately get a fastball
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: that first pitch of the game. Hopefully it's a strike
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: and you don't miss it.
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: Well. More on the Dodgers, Freddy Freeman hit on the
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: wrist by a pitch. X rays negative. Day to day,
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: should be okay. Seems like you dodged one there, which
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: is good news. And we got a couple that are
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: worse here. So we'll go to the Orioles, longtime friend
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: of the show. Great interview. Grayson Rodriguez discomfort again while
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: rehaving his lat injury. That's the same issue he had
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: in spring training that helped him back, and interim manager
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: Tony Manslino said the Oriols have had to pull back
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: on his reabstince so he stopped. They'll give us more
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: info soon. A sucks, great personality, number one starter stuff.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: They just can't get him back on the field right now.
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I honestly think you're seeing this a little more often,
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: and it's worrying. Worries some excuse me. Elbow discomfort, shoulder discomfort.
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: After rehabbing for so long, You're like, man, what else
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: do I have to do. And I mean, I think
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: Lance can attest to this and talk a little more
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: about it, Like it's got to be really frustrating, it's
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: got to be really really you know anger this kind
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: of stuff. You work your butt off months and months
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: to get back to where you need to be and
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: then this has to happen.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, just eat you up. You know, as a competitor,
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: you want to be on the field, and then it's
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: just like seems to be one thing after another. Forum Unfortunately, guys,
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: kid's got great stuff. You know, you're you're starting to
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: see him kind of come into his own and then
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: now it's just you know, one setback after another. So
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: you know, hopefully he's able to you know, reassess here,
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: take a break and you know, kind of put these
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: But man, it's been a tough year for him in
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: the sense of just it's been NonStop, man, and sometimes
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: that stuff happens and it sucks.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: So the Oriols aren't going anywhere this year. I and mean,
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: they've had a miserable season, so they're not a playoff team.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: They don't need to rush someone like him back. Have
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: you ever seen guys that are injury prone earlier in
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: their careers trying to do something drastically different, whether it's
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: the way that they're training, rehabbing, the people that they're seeing.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: Of course, you deal with the team, but you can
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: also see people outside of the team. Right if you're
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: someone in his spot, you know, and he said to you, Hey,
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: I can't figure out how to stay on the field
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: the last couple of years, what do I do? What
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: would you say to him?
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: I think that's like any of us. Right as your
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: career goes on, you try to connect with guys that
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: have done it at a high level, stayed healthy, maybe
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: gone through some of the same things you've gone through
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: injury wise, and then you put a plan together for you.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: But you take everything together that you can get. Michael Walker,
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: I remember, had a scap thing early on and they
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: were worried about it in Saint Louis, and then McCarthy
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: had it before him, so he actually reached out and
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: was like, hey, what did you do? And then it
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: starts a process of hey, what do I need to
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: do pregame, post game, in between starts, and then maybe
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: you can start changing some of that fortune where you
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: can stay healthy and then you make your starts and
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: do your things, but obviously there might be something that
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: he needs to take from someone else and or add
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: it to his program, or things that might be hurt
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: name right now. So that's part of the process. Unfortunately,
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: you wish you can do it as you're playing. I
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: was able to do it as I was playing, where
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: some guys have to be hurt for a while to
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: kind of figure it out, and that's that's no fun
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: for sure.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: How different are teams with the way that they rehab pitchers, like,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: how or do most of them have kind of the
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: same book for the same injuries.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: I would say every team I played on was different,
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: whether it was rehab, whether it was in between starts,
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: post start, you know anything, everything was different. There was
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: no team that had the same method. So I was
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: able to kind of had a good, you know, good
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: footstep in it, and then I was able to build
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: on it. You know, I was able to get guys
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: coming over from other teams, and I went to New
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: York with CC, so I was starting to, you know,
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: ask questions and learn things, and I was able to
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: slowly add things to things I learned early on in
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: my career, and you know, I got lucky to stay
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: pretty healthy most of my career, but I will tell
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: you that every team had a totally different way to
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: do it for the most part.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: See to me, that sometimes means if a guy moves
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: on to a different ball club, a different rehab process
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: can change things up. Yeah, you can't do that when
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: you're under team control like this, But just throwing it
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: out there. The didn't have a great weekend against the Mariners,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: but they did salvage a game in the series on Sunday.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: I think it was like eleven and answered runs on
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Sunday's game to finish it up. But they did lose
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: Estak Parades to the ten day il, so that's another
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: big bat down for them. It's a right hamstring strain.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: They don't have Jordan Alvarez for the majority of the season,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: and at some point you would think he'll come back,
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: but it's been a weird process since they misdiagnosed the
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: injury at first. Jeremy Paine is down and he'll be
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: back at some point in the second half of the year.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, we continue to point this out, but just
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: to get a fresh perspective, lance this team does not
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: have the scariest looking starting nine right now, and yet
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: they lead the American League West.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: How dude. I don't know what they figured out in Houston,
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: but it seems like every year you lose Correa, you
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: still win the division. You lose Bregman, you're still ahead
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: of the division. It's amazing. I mean, and injury wise,
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: you know they're getting I mean, they traded away Tucker too,
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: and it's like, hey, you know, we're still going to
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: win division. It's amazing. So obviously they're getting crushed with entries.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: You know, the trade deadline. They're gonna need to, you know,
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: maybe add a few things here and there just because
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: they need They're gonna need some help down the stretch
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: until some guys get get healthy. But they know how
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: to win. I don't know how to say it or whatever.
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: They're building in that organization from minor leagues up. These
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: guys are showing up. They know what they're expected, and
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: they know what they want them to do, and they're
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: winning ball games.
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: Crats.

  Speaker 1: take two minutes on it just to get player perspective.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: Here.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: Kutel Marte was at the All Star game and then
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: came back and found out his home was burglarized. He's
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: planning to DH tonight in his first game back since
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: the All Star rank. He was placed on the restricted
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: list to deal with things. I mean, he said he
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: lost about four and your grand in possessions. I don't know.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: I don't have anywhere to go here, but just wanted
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: to get perspective here on how tough this can be
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: and really also how you welcome someone back from this
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: after they've been out for a couple of days and
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: dealt with something that's not just possessions but a safety concern.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: Man, anytime you that's crazy. Anytime you your homes like
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: that's just wild. And they the problem is they know
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: where they're at right it's looking at other sports. Two
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: NFL gets hit on their primetime games. The guys that
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: got hit on that, So it's just crazy. How you
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: know how it's going right now? You know, obviously you
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: feel bad for him and his family because you know
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: their privacy is is definitely taken from him right there.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: So hopefully you know they find who did it, and
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: you know they get him and you know he can
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: get back to playing baseball and keeping his family safe.
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: It's tough, tough.
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: Sounds like somebody knew about this all star break and
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: inside opportunity.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: Ah, don't even want to talk about it. This one,
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: this one.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: What would you say to him when he comes back though,
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: just to try and get him right. I mean, the
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: Diamondbacks had a great weekend. They swept the Cardinals, and
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: they got this whole vibe going where they want to
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: make it tough on their front office.
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, to sell.
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: I mean, the only thing I could think of was, hey, listen,
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: you've got a great life, you know, forget about these
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: things and understand that you're you're going to be wealthy man,
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: whether you lose these or not.
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: You got a great family back in you.
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: And just understand the people that did do this, they're
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: you know they I guess they needed it, you know,
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: and at the end of the day, they're not good people,
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: and you just got to move on. I mean, there's
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: you can't you can control what you can control, and
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: then you're frustrated and furiated, and you know he's mad,
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: but you know, everybody else in the family that he
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: has it is even more upset.
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: So he's got to be the leader of the whole thing.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: You've got a sport where you can try and at least,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe take some anger.
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: Out with your bat. But yeah, in hitting baseballs. But
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: it's it's it's tough. This this is just sucky. It's
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: really sucky that people got to do this stuff.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you, man fit check Lance. Let's see
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: what we got here for the Speedway Classic, which I'm into.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: I think this is cool. The more that MLB can
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: do games in cool places, sign me up. They're gonna
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: do it at Bristol Motor Speedway. It's coming up. It's
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: right after the trade deadline August second. You'll have the
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: braves and the reds and they're showing off the uniforms.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: You've got the fire for Atlanta and then you've got
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: the checkered flag kind of look for Cincinnati. Do we
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: like both of these? In which one do we like better?
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: I think they're spot on. I think both of them
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: are great.
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: I think another way of em will be to branch
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: out and make things more interesting and people will be like, wow,
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: all right, pretty cool. He gets a little NASCAR side
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: and an opportunity to baseball to have a little more
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: fun with the sport.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: No, I love it. Look, that's a good look, and
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: I think every fan should wear jeans, sorts and a
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: cutoff shirt just because it's you know, it's at a
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: race track. Yeah, let's get after it.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: What about players? Should they have gone even further or
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: did they hit the right note with the Unis?
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: I love it. I love what they're doing. You know,
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: it's always fun to play at different places throughout a year.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: It kind of breaks up the you know, the the
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: season a little bit, but when you're the first person
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: to play at a place, it's kind of cool. So
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: I love the Unis. You know, when you're looking at
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: what they're what they're trying to accomplish there, I think
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: that they're doing what doing what they set out to do.
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: So I'm looking forward to that.
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: You did Field the Dreams one year.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: I did the Fill the Dreams game, Yeah, with I
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: was with Chicago. That was that was crazy, man, just
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: the flying in playing that day something you were never expecting,
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: but it was, you know, great atmosphere, great game. Uh man,
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: it was cool. I did the Puerto Rican Series two
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: one year with Twins and the Guardians, so I've got
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: lucky with a few of them. One of the uh
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: did the Little League Girls Series game too. So I've
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: been lucky along the way here to play some play
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: some of the cool, cool ones for sure.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: Look out for the hottest team in baseball right now.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Let's hit better than box scores. The Milwaukee Brewers have
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: won ten games in a row. It was seven heading
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: into the break, and then you meet up with the
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: Dodgers coming into the second half of the season and
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: people were like, all right, they'll they'll fizzle. That was
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: their nice little run, good timing for them. Nope, they
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: swept LA. Two of those games were one run wins.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: Saturday eight seven, Sunday six five. Trevor McGill has been
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: great this year, by the way, in the ninth inning
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: for the brew crew. But you look at this rotation Lance.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: They added Jacob Mezarawski, who nobody knew about a month ago,
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: and now he's an all start looking like a number
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: one starter for them the rest of the way. Brandon
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: Woodruff looks pretty damn good coming back. Now. The offense
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: is clicking a little more and they play that scrappy
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: brand of baseball. What do you think of Milwaukee and
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: how do you match them up against the Cubs? Here
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: in the division.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: You know, I like him to be right down to
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: the end there, depending on what team does what at
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: the deadline here. You know, I think both teams could
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: maybe add a starting pitcher or maybe you know, a
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: little bullpen health. That's usually the go to for teams
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: making a run. But Milwaukee just wins baseball games. And
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: they've done it for a long time, from top to
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: bottom organization. That guys come play baseball, They played the
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: game the right way. They do what they need to do.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: Murph has always got the guys ready to go. So
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: you look at it, and then you look at their
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: you know, you said would have the young kids throwing
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: the ball as as well as anybody obviously, right, And
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: you got Peralta. If you look at that team in
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: a playoff series, if they get there with those three starters,
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: and then if they might add whatever, they're going to
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: be a team that just they they don't do anything great,
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: but they will not beat themselves and then they can
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: pitch man and if you get to that time of
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: the year, that's how you win baseball games and win series.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: So they're a team that you can never count out,
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: and they frustrate you as a posting team because you're like, man,
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: there's no you got Yelli's. But like you know, Contray
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: has his streaks. They mean they lost Adams Hoskins is out,
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: Like You're like, how are we losing to these guys?
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: But all the other guys are tough at bats man.
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: They do not give away anything, and that's why they're
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: a good ball They're a good baseball team.
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: They have always been there at the end, and now
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: the Cubs are starting to make a little push here,
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: which I think is absolutely fantastic. Yeah, this is another
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: wire to wire finished. This is what baseball needs and loves.
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: And you know, the Brewers, they find their ways. They
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: always have a way to make things interesting. Don't get
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: me wrong, but they always find a way. They are
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: tough to beat at home. I don't care what anybody
• 36:37
  Speaker 4: says playing at that ballpark. It's a ballpark hit or friendly.
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: Of course, it's a fun place to play. But the
• 36:43
  Speaker 4: crowd's into it. You got that Midwest kind of energy
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: a little bit, and they just battle, you know, with
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: Pat Murphy at the helm, those those guys are gonna win,
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: and they're gonna win at all costs. And it's a
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: bunch of no names, like he says, even though I
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: think there's a bunch of names that we all know,
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: but they do. They go out there with a little
• 37:01
  Speaker 4: little something on their back, a little chip on their shoulder,
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: and they go out and fight.
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: And that's what you want to say.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: They're thirty three and seventeen at home, twenty six and
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: twenty three on the road, playing at what you're talking about,
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: fifty nine and forty on the season. Top records in
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: all of baseball right now belong to the Tigers, the
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: Brewers and Cubs, the Dodgers, and the Blue Jays. Pretty
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: cool playing. Also playing to what you just said, Todd Father,
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: Brewer's manager and comedian Pat Murphy said, quote, it's a
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: bunch of guys that nobody has ever heard of. Like
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: I said, no disrespect to the great fans of Japan baseball,
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: but they can't name five players in our lineup. That's
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: the good stuff.
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: I don't even know where that came from.
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: It's probably one of those Murphy I know, I know
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: what he's kind of saying about it.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: We played show Hey. They only know sho Hey and
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: they don't know what that's That's what we got.
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: Out of that exactly exactly right. You're you're you're watching
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: show Hey and the Dodgers, and they're a bunch of
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: super fans, the Dodgers of Japan's team these days, Lance,
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: and they're probably looking over at Milwaukee and struggling to
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: name anyone on that team, aside from maybe Christian Yelich
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: because he's been doing it for a long time.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: That'd be my only guess that they know. I would
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: be surprised if they if they truly knew Milwaukee's He's
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: He's right. I would be shocked if they could name
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: five guys in their in their lineup, that's for sure.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: The crazy thing is, I mean, there are some star
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: level players in this lineup, like William Contreras with the
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: bat compared to most catchers, right, Jackson Churio, who's only
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: in his second season, he's twenty one years old, and
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: overall in the year, he's been great. Christian Yelich in there,
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: Andrew Vaughn was just picked up two weeks ago, and
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: you played with him. Yeah, did you see what you've
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: got on?
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: Breath of fresh air? Sometimes, yeah, a breath of fresh air.
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: You start playing a little bit, you know that Midwest
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: breath of fresh air.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well, especially when the roofs closed and the
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: AC is not working. That's the that's the good air
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: right there.
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: I love it. I love pitching in Milwaukee. You're talking
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: about it's being a hitterspark. I always sew the ball
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: pretty well there. It's always a little little chili. So
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: you just you just felt good. You know, I'm a
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: Midwest body myself, Todd, so you know, I just didn't
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: well up there.
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: Grizzly, Baby, grizzly in the middle of the Midwest, and
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: the heat and the summer and the cold in the
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: in the fall.
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: Bill for bill for all of it, baby.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, you got a Freddy Peralta, Jose Kintana, Brandon Woodriff,
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: Jacob Mizerawski, and Quinn Priesters who's been good lately. That's
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: your five again, you know, I mean people know the
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: names here, but it's that's a solid five, right And
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: if this comes a playoff team Lance, some mix of
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: Freddy big Woo and Jacob Mizerowski is your top three
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: starters stuff wise, That's that's championship.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: Level you get you if they have in the wild
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: card round. You look at those three, and then you're
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: looking at next round. You thow Q out there, who
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: is nothing but like just he locks in when he
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: needs to. He's got the great pitch mix and he's
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: been there, done that. So if this team gets to
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: the playoffs, man, they do not beat themselves. They pitch,
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: they play defense, and they're not afraid to do the
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: right things to win ball games.
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, nobody knows they're relievers either, but they're great. Trevor
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: mcgol the closer after Rebay Nick Meers, who they picked
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: up from the Rockies s last year. Very impressive. All right,
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: let's do one more here. Jazz Chisholm and third base
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: coach for the Braves Eddie Perez, were exchanging words on Saturday.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: The league's actually investigating it more because I guess they
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: thought Perez was threatening a little beanball action. There's the view.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: Lay Grafts actually on Instagram sent us this view. I
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: guess they were at the game of Jazz relaying signs. Lance.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: How would this go if you were pitching.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: Well, you always know it's gonna happen, right, or it's
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: possible happen, So most likely they're getting it from the pitcher.
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: So that's on the picture, whether he's got glove hand,
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: if they're getting the pitch out of his glove and
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: all that. So for me, it's part of it. Right.
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: If you don't like it as a pitcher, you got
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: to clean your stuff up. I will say. I read
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: the quotes after the game. He was saying, hey, be
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: smart about how you do it. You know, maybe he's
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: talking about he didn't like the way he was going
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: about relaying signs. But when it's all said and done,
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: you know, the day of just blasting the guy and
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: hitting him and saying, Okay, that's how we're gonna stop
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: the relays over you can't do it, you're gonna get suspended,
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: you're gonna get whatever. So you're looking at it as is.
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: I always knew that it was a part of the game.
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: You always pay attention to it. You always have to
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: do it yourself to stop it. So I'm not the
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: ones that say, hey, nobody can relay signs. I hate
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: anything when you're it that doesn't involve the guy seeing
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: it with his own eyes. That's when I hate it.
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: So if what they're doing is it's been done for years, right, Todd,
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: Like we've seen it forever. If you're going to open
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: your glove and flare it so I can see your
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: change up grip, your slider grip that's on you man,
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: tuck it and keep it tight. So you know, I
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: I hope that he wasn't saying, hey, we'll hit you
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: in the head. He said, hey, how you're doing it?
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: And you know, jazz is jazz, right, he doesn't care
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: you want to. But if you look at the way
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: it looked on video too, it looked like he was saying, hey,
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: and you know, he point out whenevery time he pointed
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: your head. The number one thing is hell, we're going
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: to hit you. But yeah, he said, that's not what
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: he was doing. So uh, ed. He's always been good
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: as far as I've had him or talked to him
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: and all that. So who knows what he was saying,
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: but that's the way he said it is. He was
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: telling you, Sam, be smart. So interesting though.
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Now the kind of piggy piggyback that you know,
• 43:01
  Speaker 4: the one I think about is Pedro Martinez and Don Zimmer,
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: you know, and he and Pisidas you better be smart.
• 43:08
  Speaker 4: You know, they were pointing to their head. I think
• 43:10
  Speaker 4: you got to be careful about how you go about things. Eddie, Eddie,
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: Eddie Perez, great guy, understand him, I think with the
• 43:17
  Speaker 4: theatrics in the hand, you know, believable. I don't know
• 43:19
  Speaker 4: exactly what was said, but you know what happens after that.
• 43:21
  Speaker 4: They'll go back and look at film and they say, hey,
• 43:24
  Speaker 4: show me what happened, and then they get different views.
• 43:26
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, he was given signs. So the only way
• 43:29
  Speaker 4: to really go about this is keep your mouth shut
• 43:31
  Speaker 4: and then basically throwing under somebody's chin if some They
• 43:35
  Speaker 4: have a camera everywhere Lance, so if you see all
• 43:38
  Speaker 4: of a sudden somebody's shirpenade to show that's gonna get
• 43:40
  Speaker 4: back to the league. And then the next guy that throws,
• 43:42
  Speaker 4: if he hit somebody, he ha gone. So yeah, just unfortunate.
• 43:47
  Speaker 4: You don't like to see that. Two good guys, and
• 43:49
  Speaker 4: you know, hopefully they just move on from here.
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: No, I agree, I agree, I hope they move on.
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: But it's definitely interesting.
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: Mm.
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: Two teams that don't face each other, very interesting, the division, right,
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: they don't people don't forget. Yeah, they do not forget.
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: I'm going to speed through a few other things because
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: I got a lot on the checklist, and we've got
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: three minutes to do it. First off, one thing on
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: the trade front, we didn't get to that. I just
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: want to throw out there. Craig Mish over the weekend,

• 44:27
  Speaker 1: they're they're not shopping. Kyle Stowers. The season he's having
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: and the weekend that he just had, and the years
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: of control that you have, that's the guy you want
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: to build around.
• 44:40
  Speaker 3: Good stud.
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: When we first heard a month ago that his name
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: might be thrown around in some trades, I'm like, you
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: just got him. At some point you got to keep someone.
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: And he's a great kid, great ambassador. This was an
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: all star. He's crushing it for them, So I was
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: glad to see that. And then Lance, you'll like this.
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: We got We got a couple, a couple of long timers,
