• 0:37
  Speaker 2: all had a good time. Todd, it's been a while
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: since I've seen you.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: But Eric, what are you? Because it looks like you're
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: somewhere we need to know.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: I'm in AJ's land. The press box they were like, oh,
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: we thought AJ would show up because he's better looking,
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: and I'm like, all right, well that's fine, but now
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: I'm in Milwaukee. We got a Legends game here at
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: American I gotta I gotta look at the name of it,
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: American Family Field. I mean, maybe I can, maybe I
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: can turn my shot around. So everybody can see the
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: pre game workout for all the players here. But uh yeah,
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: we got Legends game post game, so we'll see how
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: that goes for me.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Well, will you catch though? Will you catch it? Will
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: you get in it? Bat? What are you gonna do?
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: I was honestly looking at our roster and unfortunately, I
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: think we have two outfielders. So I'm really really fearful
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: that they're gonna put Luke Roy behind a dish and
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: they're gonna make me go in the outfield. And I'm
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: looking at the outfield right now and I'm like, I'll
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: go get the ball when it stops rolling, that's pretty
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: much mine. But yeah, I'll catch. I think we're playing
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: three innings if I hope I get an ab pictures
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: are throwing. The thing I'm really worried about, more than
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: running after the ball in the outfield is the fact
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: that we're not having helmets. So this is like a
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: Legends game kind of thing, and they don't have helmets.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: So I'm like, if Ben sheets who's here? If he
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: drops a curveball on me, I'm definitely gonna flinch. If
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: he throws three curveballs in a row, I'm flinching all
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: three of them. No way, I'm hanging in there without
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: a helmet on. So like, I don't I just don't
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: think I can. I don't think I can do it. Todd,
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: have you ever done one of these? Have you ever
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: done one of these?
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: I'm doing.
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: I'm doing my first Old Timers game for the Yankees
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: coming up August State.
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: So wait, wait, wait, wait wait you got invited to that?
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: I did. It was my first year. I got you
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: gotta you gotta wait a certain.
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: Amount of time out and me and uh I think
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: Otto Vino got invited to so we're both call into
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: the old I hate it. It's his old Timers game.
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: But that's just that, that's just it is what it is.
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: But yeah, yeah, I think you get one at bat
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: and you played two or three innings, So I'm I'm
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: pretty excited trying hopefully uh Andy pettit's on the mound
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: or somebody so I can try and go deep.
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: I need a lefty on the mound. That's that's the
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: that's the problem.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: This is trash. This is trash. How have I not
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: been invited to the old Timers game? I'm actually old like,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: It's not like it's not like you're old Todd, Like
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: I'm actually old, Like I want to go there. I
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: think it. With all the teams I played on, I
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: always felt like I could make like a living. I
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: could make a living out of just going to all
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: these legends games and alumni games and people were like,
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: who's that guy, and I'm like, pay me my money?
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: I showed up.
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: Oh god, yeah, it'd be fun. It'd be a lot
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: of fun look forward to.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: I got we got to hear about that. We gotta
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: get some video of that.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: If both of you guys trying to play and and hit,
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: and then how sore you are the next day, that's
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: the key. I remember when I did a couple of
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: a few years ago. The next day was a little
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: bit different than waking up on a normal Saturday or
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Sunday whatever that whatever day of the games were so
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: because as much as you guys will try not to
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: go as hard as you can, you still wake up
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: and you're like, man, I went a little bit harder
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: than I thought I was. So I remember Samanna Bananas
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: that was it last year or whenever that was. I
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: woke up and I was like the next day, I
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: was like, ah, I feel pretty good, but ah, the
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: old obleaque still a little bit sore because that's a
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: little bit more swings than I've taken the last I
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: don't know, seven years or anything.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: So there'll be fun. You guys enjoy it.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: We had we had a reception last night. Everyone's hanging
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: out telling stories. There are some dudes that are like, like,
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: Bill Hall's here. I'm like, you look like you can
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: still play, Like he hasn't played since fourteen. He's like, yeah,
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: you know, I hit. Some guys are like, oh, you
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: hit all the time. Like these dudes are like, I mean,
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: who else is here? Eric Sogart he just was playing
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: for the with the Czech team and a WBC getting
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: ready for that. Like Eric Dames looks like he looks
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: like he just got done working out with Yondi Diez.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure who's bigger right now. They are two
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: absolute monsters.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Well let's seehere, you're righting all right, Let's charge Let's
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: charge them out, guys, let's charge out. Is it gonna happen?
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: That's the question, is it really gonna happen? Jeff Fletcher
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: from the Orange County Register wrote the Angels have several
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: assets most notably Redeptmers and Jose Soriana, who could be
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: active trade chips to help replenish the young talent in
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: the system. New GM John mose Look in charge of
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: the baseball ups. Can he get through to Artie Morino
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: and actually say we have chips to trade, We're gonna
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: actually do it and help them make this team worth
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: the crap because they haven't been worth the crap basically
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: since Mike Trout has been there, right, they haven't won
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: a playoff game with Mike Trout. Mike Trout, I think
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: he has eleven playoff at bats or something crazy like
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: that in his entire career. So, Todd, do you think
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: this will actually be the year where the Angels say
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: we're gonna sell our best players and actually try to
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: win in the future.
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: I mean they they should, They definitely should. I was
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: a big component when Sho heeo Tani was still on
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: the team that had an opportunity to get anything they
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: really wanted for him. I think that was mistake number one.
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: This could be mistake number two. They do. They have
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: some really good assets here that they can get rid of.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: I mean Zach Netto, I mean, talk talk about a
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: guy that's a good fit in some teams. He's absolutely incredible.
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: I know the Red Sox view him as a strong fit.
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: I know, you know, even Mike Trout. Guys, listen, I
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: understand about the money. But there's a possibility that some
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: teams do want him and bring him to a team
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: where he can actually get into the playoffs. Yeah, this
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: should be the team where if I'm sitting there and
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: I'm Angels and I'm the brass, like, hey, come to
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: me with whatever you got, I'm waiting right now, tell
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: me talk to me. I'm gonna I'm gonna sit there
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: and ponder about every little thing you guys are talking about.
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: They have a bunch of chips, and guess what, they're
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: easily in the right move, they can make a really
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: big dent into their system.
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: In a good way and maybe even get.
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: A couple veteran guys back if possible. You know, that
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: can help them down the line.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: All right, But why this year, Todd, That's the question
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: for me.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: It's we've been talking about this since show Hey was there, right,
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: and he's been in the Dodgers now for three This
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: is his third year with the Dodgers. Mike Trout has
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: been Hey, Mike Trout should be traded, right, They've had
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: pieces before that they could trade. Why would it be
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: different this year? Is it just because was Aylock's there?
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: But Zaylock does Moze Loac have Arty Morino's ear because
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: in the past, Arty Morinos put the kaibosh on all
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: of this. So let's sell our best players. So why
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: this year? It doesn't make sense that all of a sudden,
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: other than John mose.
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: Look, yeah, I mean because they've made the mistake of
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: not doing it. I mean, they got to understand this
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: team is not making the playoffs anytime soon.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: They have. I mean, Jose Soriano started off really well.
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: You know, he's teetered a little bit, but at the
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: same time, he would be a great fit in some
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: organizations that are trying to move forward and get to
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: the playoffs with guys that are injured. Yeah, I think
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: it's a different person. I think it's a different kind
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: of atmosphere there. And they've been holding back for a
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: long time. Man, Oh, you never know, we can't do this,
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: can't do that. It's time to open up the books
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: and say, who's got something for me? Let's talk and
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: if it works out, it works out. You gotta make
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: a change there because nothing is working over there for
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: a long time.
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: Now, if you're watching us, you already know we're wearing
• 8:01
  Speaker 6: mack Weldon right now as we talk about a great
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: brand that makes things so comfortable and easy to wear.
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: But if you're listening to the show, let me tell
• 8:09
  Speaker 6: you a little bit more about mac Weldon with my
• 8:11
  Speaker 6: friend Aer Kratz.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's comfortable, it's light, it's summertime right now. For
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: me though, they cater to what I need tall clothes. Normally,
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: when I buy tall clothes it's like something that's cumbersome
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: and boxy. It still fits incredibly well, super light, perfect
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: for the summertime. They got me all covered.
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: Comfortable performance material can be yours. Mac Weldon is the spot.
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: Don't sweat the heat this summer. Feel as effortlessly cool
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: as you look. With mac Weldon. Go to macweldon dot
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: com and get twenty percent off your first order of
• 8:49
  Speaker 6: one hundred and twenty five bucks or more with promo
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: code foul that's m ackw eld o n dot com code.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Fo u l Okay.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Well, let's say they don't they aren't able to find
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: a trade partner or Zach no no, and they're not
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: able to trade to find a trade partner for Jose
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Soriano and Read Devers, and maybe Grayson Rodriguez is also
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: if you bitches well tonight, maybe he's also on the block.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: But let's say they don't. Then what do the Angels
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: do if they don't make these trades? Because if they
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: don't make these trades, then you just say, oh, it's
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: the same old Angels. It's the same old Angels again, right,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: So how much pressure is there to actually make these
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: trades because Ardy Reino doesn't seem like he cares about
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: the pressure.
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I think now more than ever there's pressure.
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: And I'm not gonna say it's a make or breag pressure,
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: but it's go time. I know the Angels fans have
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: been very critical about some of the things we've said
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: on the show, but they got to understand you're gonna
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: sit there and keep watching the same old Angels team
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: a year in and year out.
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's been going on for a lot of years.
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: Now, what's the difference If you get a bunch of
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: prospects and you got to wait three or four more years.
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: It's gonna be the same old progress that. Oh yeah, look,
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: in the beginning of the year they're doing pretty good.
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: Then it falls off. They need guys to come in
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: that are gritty, that are grinders that can help a team,
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: and they need that team atmosphere where hey, listen, we
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: don't want to play this Angels team anymore. They figured
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: out a way to get the right team, a board,
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: and the right guys to make this team great.
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: Listen, I love Mike Troudy.
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: He's not getting any younger, Okay, So who's going to
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: be that next guy that they're going to look to
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: be the leader of this team as they move forward
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: in the next four to six years. Nobody knows every
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: team wants to go younger. The veteran guys there. I mean,
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: it's like an anomaly right now. Nobody has time or
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: nobody is there to help these young guys out. You
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: need a couple veteran guys, and you need some young
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: core group that can come up and say, guess what,
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: I'm ready to play the big leagues and we're ready
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: to take the Angels by storm.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: Here.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: I agree.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: And by the way, if it was me and I
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: was Jean Mozilla everybody's on the table.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: There's not one.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: Guy, including Mike Trout, that I will not make it all.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: I will not receive an offer for and think about
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: trading because there's not one guy on this team that
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: when these guys are good again, is gonna help them. Right,
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be four or five years. So if I'm
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: Joe mose like, I am like every listen, guys, we're
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: olding for business. But there's a piece y'all want. Let's
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: start over.
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: And I don't think he can make a mistake here.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: Listen, if you get rid of a guy and all
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: of a sudden, oh man, I can't believe you got
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: you got these guys back.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: But what's the darn difference? What's the difference? I mean,
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: they're winning, is not there?
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: So guess what, maybe in two or three or four years,
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: all of a sudden you're like, oh, that was a
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: good trader. Maybe it wasn't. But it's gonna be the
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: same old team as they move forward. And guess what.
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: That's the nature of the beast.
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: It is over there.
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: They're gonna win games, but they're gonna lose a lot
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: more games as time goes on here, So why not
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: take a chance.
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: Why not make it, make.
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: A move where everybody's like, I don't think so, and
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: maybe it works, maybe it doesn't, but it'll be in
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: the same They'll be in the same here.
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: There's they're not going above anything right now.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Agreed. Agreed.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: If you want more Halo Talk, more Angels talk, more
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: big A Talk, more Los Angeles Angels, listen to Mark,
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Mike Di Giovanna and Mark on Halo Territory on YouTube
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: and wherever you get your podcasts. All right, Todd, let's
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: get into this. We're getting close to the trade deadline.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: You were traded, You've been traded during the season. I
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: was never traded during the season. I was DFAD and
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: had to move and sign with a different team. So
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: it's a little bit different than one day you wake
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: up and the next day you're in a different city.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: So what's it like from the player's perspective, Because again,
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: I've never been through it. I've had to say goodbye
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: to people, I've had to say hello to new teammates.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: But as someone that's been through it, explain what it's
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: like for you and your family to get that call
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: or that text or that handshake or whatever you want.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: To call when they say, hey, Todd, you're going from
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: teammate a team B.
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, listen for me. Two things.
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: It's tough to leave your teammates, especially if you've been
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: around them for a lot of years. When I was
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: in Cincinnati for five six years and then eventually got
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: traded in the office season crazy times. I got traded, uh,
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: four days before my wife gave birth to our second child.
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: It was it was wacky. But during the year, it's
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: easy for me. All I gotta do. I mean, it's
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: said you got to say about everybody, But all I
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: got to do is get my stuff packed up and
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: get on the plane. Now, my wife, who's the backbone,
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: who's been absolutely incredible, you know, going from one city.
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: I went from Chicago to New York. And it's hard.
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: It's hard.
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: We have furniture, we got the kids, we got cars,
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: we got everything you can name, from kids stuff to
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: her stuff too. Oh man, it is a workload and
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: she was an absolute beast with it. But I gave
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: her all the credit in the world. She did it
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: in a couple of days. Found moving company that ships
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: stuff from Chicago to New York or New Jersey wherever.
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: We were going. But for me, yeah, the personal stuff
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: like knowing everybody from the clubhouse guys to the management,
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: to the player to the fans. That's the tough part
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: you're leaving. But ultimately my job was easy. Just find
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: a way to get on the next plane, get to
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: the next city and play and do your job and
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: play baseball.
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: But I have to give credit to my wife.
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: She's been absolutely She's had to do it three times
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: and for her it was hard, but she never complain
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: one time.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: So you've got to have a good helper.
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: Now you don't even have to be your wife, with
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: your girlfriend, your mom, your dad, you're a friend.
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: But yeah, I get her credit.
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: And then my buddies actually put everything together in my
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: new apartment.
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: So got to have a good backbone, for sure.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: God did to make it easier that you were going
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: to New York, a place it was close to your
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: home right New Jersey. So it's not how far is
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: I don't know how far Tom's River is from the Bronx, but.
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, about an hour and twenty minutes. It's not
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: that far, but I I stayed closer. I was in
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: the town called Fort Lee, which was right before the
• 14:54
  Speaker 5: GW the bridge and it would take me about twelve
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: minutes to get to the stadium and stuff, so depending
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: on when I left. I didn't want to take that
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: track every day. So we had an apartment there and
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: it was it was a good thing. You know, not
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: many people some people move across the country. So but yeah,
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: it's hard to fin it's hard. It's uh, it's an
• 15:17
  Speaker 5: adjustment you have to really figure out. So for me, lucky,
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: I had you know, my wife doing all the jobs.
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: I wouldn't trust anybody else.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: That's perfect.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: People don't realize how much the wives do for people
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: and players behind the scenes, right, So it's a crazy time.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: I know. When I, like I said, when I was
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: DFA and I went from Boston, I had a two
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: week break in between. Then I had to go to
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: Saint Louis try to find an apartment. Luckily, Mack Carboner
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: was moving out of his apartment. He had just gotten
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: rich and bought a house, so he gave me his
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: lease and it was fully furnished. So for me, it
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: was like simple. I got to Saint Louis, I met
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: him on the road. I got to Saint Louis, I
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: just slid right into mac Carbenter's.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: He just gave me the keys.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: I had to clean the sheets a little bit and
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: some of the couches from where he had set around
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: his beard had fallen into the into the stuff. But
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: after that, man, it was simple. So Kratzy, did you
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: ever have you ever get traded.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: In the middle of the season.
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, twenty fourteen. I was the big move for the Royals.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: They figured they'd bring me in and take like twenty
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: four at bats for the rest of the season, including
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: the playoffs. Yeah, in fourteen, I got traded at the break.
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: At seventeen, I got traded. I mean when I say
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: at the break, I'm sorry at the trade deadline, it's seventeen.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: I got traded to the Yankees August thirtieth. Yeah, August thirtieth,
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: they called. So it was when they used to have
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: the second trade deadline. I was in TRIPAA with Columbus
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: and el Gary and Boston Roman both got in a
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: fight with Miguel Cabrera in Detroit and they ended up
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: both getting suspended. So they're like, well, we need a
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: third guy. In September and KYLEI Goshioka was hurt, so
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: they traded for me from Columbus, so I got to
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: go to New York at two at bats that year.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: It was a huge, huge piece of that playoff team.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: And then in eighteen I got traded not to trade deadline,
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: but in May to this you know here in Milwaukee,
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: and so I got to got to play there. So yeah,
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: I got traded a lot of times, only at trade deadline,
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: only in fourteen and seventeen.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: Grats you, by the way, before I have a quick
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: comment the guy behind you, can you used to say hi
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: to him?
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: For me?
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: Can you just wave to the guy behind you over
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: your shoulder see him say you're on TV. They wanted
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: me to say hi, said AJ says hi, tell me
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: a J. Perzinski says hi. He said he he said
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: he knows you. He said he doesn't hate you, but
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: he knows you. No, yess not true because I bring
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: him great food every time every time I come into
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: the Fox game. We have a huge spread, so I
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: know that's not true. He said, he said he brings
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: you great food every time. Right, They say, he said,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: it's it. He said, you know, guy, he knows. By
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: the way, the story that I always tell in fourteen
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: when I switched teams, I actually sold my house in
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: Orlando and I had to move into a rental. And
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: when I got home after the season thought I was
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: driving in an Uber from the hotel the season was
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: over to my new house, which was a rental, and
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: I didn't know where it was, and the Uber driver goes,
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: where are we going?
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: And I was like, I don't know.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: I think it's his house right here, and he goes,
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: have you never been to your own house?
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: And I said, actually nope, because we moved out.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: My wife had to move us out, put us in
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: a new house, kids included. And when I got home,
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: I had never been there. I've never even seen it,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: but we lived in it for a year until our
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: new house was done. So yeah, that's my that's my
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: almost trade in the middle of the season story right there.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: That's the reality. That's the reality that there is so much.
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, usually when you're traded, you're rarely traded as
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: like an older guy. You rarely traded to a trash team.
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: They're not like picking some dude up to finish under
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: five hundred. So you're an older guy, you get traded
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: to a playoff team, and it's awesome. There's so many
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: like great things like you were on the A's and
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: now you're on the Brewers. Whatever it is like you
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: sit there and you go, this is great for my career.
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: There is so many things. I moved ninety four times
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: in my almost twenty five years of marriage now, and
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: it was all because of baseball spring training, to double
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: A to Triple A, to the big leagues, back to
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: triple A. Like those moves are great. You get sent down,
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: that sucks. You get called up, it's awesome. But like
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: Todd said, the wife's the one that carries a lot
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: of the load. And it's more than just trying to
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: find your house in an uber when you get back home.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: Like it's a lot of things that make it very
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: You have to be very intentional in your marriage and
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: relationship because they're going through a lot while you're going
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: through a lot of massages and big league flights.
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: True.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: True, And by the way, in twenty fourteen, a good
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: thing I signed with the Cardinals because I was about
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: just far from signing with the Royals. That never would
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: have happened for you, Crawtsey, if I would ended up
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: what time.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: Time, what time of year was that that you were
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: because the Royals would have never picked you up. They
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: didn't like your kinds.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: That's weird because I had about a two hour conversation
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: with Dayton Moore on the phone and I was I
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: was supposed to call him back, and that was when
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: the Cardinals called me because Yachtie got hurt. So it
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: was about July, right after the whatever the All Star whenever,
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: the All Star break was right after the All Star breaks,
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: so it was in Cooperstown for the induction for Frank
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: Thomas's Hall of Fame induction. So it was around July twentieth.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: It was about this time.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: Of year, so it was right before the trade deal line.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: And so he called. Dayton Moore called me and said, hey,
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: we want you to come to the Royals. And I
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: was like, okay, let's do this. The Royals were pretty
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: good that year. And I talked to him for I
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: don't know, an hour on the phone or so, and
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: we had a whole conversation.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: He's like all right. I said, all right, let me
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: call my agent.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: In between me me having that conversation with Dayton Moore
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: and calling my agent, the Cardinals called and said, hey,
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: yacht he's heard we need you to get here. Tomorrow,
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: and I was like, oh, Cardinals, Royals, And at the time,
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: the Cardinals were I think we're in first place, so
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: I obviously jumped on the Cardinals. I mean we lost
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: in the NLCS, the Royals lost in the playoffs. It's
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: crazy how little things happen like that, and it works
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: out for some, it works out for and sometimes it
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: works out for both, like it did for you and
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: I Crossy. All right, here we go, seek geek. Pick
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: your match up. Boys, you get to pick your matchup
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: who you want to see? Who you want to see tonight? Tall,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: where are you going? And you can't say in New
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: York because you don't need to see you get seats
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: in New York, So pick somewhere other than New York.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: Oh, Man, I don't know.
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: I think the Red Sox have been fascinating these past
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: couple of weeks. Man, I would like to see them
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: in person, even though they finally did lose a game,
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: going fifteen in a row. Blue Jay's of Red Sox.
• 21:46
  Speaker 5: I the Blue Jays, I don't know what is going on.
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: So you know they got your savage on the mound
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: versus sand the ball. Forget about the matchups. This is
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: This is a big time for the Red Sox to
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: make that push, to keep staying alive in the wild
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: Card and making a push to the al least.
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: So I want to see this Red Sox team in person,
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: for sure.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: I'm going to Fenway, Nice Crattea, No Milwaukee. I know
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: you're in Milwaukee and and and you know we get
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: to watch you.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: I can't.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: I hope they they show your game after the alumni
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: game after on the on the channel. I'm gonna have
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: to tune in and watch a hamstring or two blowout
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: when you're some of these guys are trying to run
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: like fantasy camp.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: What's your what's your picking? You can't pick the Brewers.
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: I mean I feel like I work for seat Keeek.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: I could tell you exactly what seat is not in
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: the sun soaping right now. Like actually in Milwaukee, there's
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: no bad seats because the stadium anyway, it's it's all right,
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: you're all right on top of the field. I mean,
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: my pick is my pick is the Phillies Yankees, and
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: I think it's at Citizens Bank Park, and I think
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: it's Cam Schlitzler versus jyesus Lizardo. Our notes say, will Warren,
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: but I think it's Cam Schlitler. I'm wanna see the
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: Phillies lineup can make an adjustment against a leading, say
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: young candidate in the American League and not just give
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: away at bats for a majority of the game and
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: hope you get somebody in the bullpen that you know
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: they're able to do some damage against.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: Anyways, of course, I got a code for you, Like
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: Kratzy said, you can all use the code Territory ten
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: for ten percent off your next set of MLB tickets,
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: as Seki does ten percent off MLB tickets with promo
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: code Territory ten. Make sure you click the link in
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: the description to download the app and have the code
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: automatically added to your account so you can use it later.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: All right, here we go. Jason Stark recently.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: Released his case for Hall of Fame players active and
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: who helped their case and who has hurt their case
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: this year. And I find this list pretty fascinating because
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: there's tiers to this and he kind of made it
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: a little bit football, ye, even though we're still in
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: baseball season. But if we can pull up the first list,
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: it's like in right now, in the list, there's a
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: couple on you here that I'm not. Well, there's one
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: guy in here that I'm not one hundred percent sure
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: is in, but I think he's in, and I want
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: to get your guys opinion. I mean, Verlander check Surezer check,
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: Trout check, Freeman check, Butts check, Judge check, Altuve check,
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: Otani check.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: The one guy that surprised me on this was Ronado.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: Gosh and there.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: He's new to this cheer, as it says, But I
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: didn't realize until you look at Nolan Arnado's numbers. He's
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: gonna get into the Hall of Fame. Might not be
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: first ballot, but he's definitely getting in. So now it
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: was like wow, when I saw this, I didn't realize it.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: But the rest of these guys are pretty much locks
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: for me.
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: Todd, Yeah, I.
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: Want to say something, but I don't know the numbers
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: because I don't want to sound like an idiot. I
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: should have looked him up a little bit closely. But
• 24:51
  Speaker 5: I agree with you on everything. Now talk to me
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: about hose that Altuve here a little bit. I don't
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: think he's a definite in my opinion.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: Three thousand he's gonna have three thousand hits he's gonna
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: got thready.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: He did he want a m VP? I forget did
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: all too?
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, seventeen he beat seventeen, he beat Judge And that's
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: what That's what Todd. Todd's a little but heard about
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: that now.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: That's why Todd doesn't want to talk about it.
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: It's here are we talking? Seven?
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: Hey, listen, I can laugh about it now, you know
• 25:23
  Speaker 5: time as a but I'm still arked about it, Yeah
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: for sure. But you know, listen, it's in the past.
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: That's I mean, are some writers gonna think about that?
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: Maybe? Maybe? You know? I I mean, listen, some people
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: have talked about it.
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: How you know it's it was one of those years
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: where the dude knew what was coming. I mean, honestly,
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: a lot of the guys did so take away seventeen.
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: What do you guys think?
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: Yes? Yes, no, yes, because he's gonna get three thousand hits.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: But anyways, in the League is presented by MLB Rivals
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: nine innings Rivals twenty six. Thank you, sorry about that.
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: I forgot I messed up my read before we got
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: into it. But Crossey, do you agree with this list.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: That are all in?
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: I do agree with the list I heard it on
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: the telecast just the other day when Nolan got his
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: two thousandth hit, and I guess we're kind of shifting
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: the bar now. I get it. All the gold gloves,
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: the platinum, the fact that he has, the fact that
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: he has, I gotta go back to the list to you,
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: the fact he is two thousand hits. It's cool. He's
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: a ten time goal glover, six time platinum in the
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: history of the game. We're gonna we're watching, We're watching
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: Andrew Jones go in. Andrew Jones had four hundred and
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: thirty four homers and ten gold gloves, so I think
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: the other four outfielders with ten gold gloves or more.
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: It was like Willie Mays, Ken, Griffy Junior, Aaron Jones,
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, Andrew Jones and Mike It So when you
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: talk about ten gold gloves, in fact he had six platinum.
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: They didn't have platinum for all those older guys. But
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: I guess he's a Hall of Famer. The two thousand hits,
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: everybody's gonna want to hate on it, and he won't
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: get the votes because it's Colorado. As I'm watching the
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: Rockies haul kick a soccer ball around here. Yes, I
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: get it. I get that they're gonna hate on his numbers.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: But man, three hundred and sixty seven home runs, I
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: don't care where you played. Three hundred and sixty seven
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: home runs is a lot. Two thousand hits is a lot.
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: And I think with the fact that it's two thousand
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: is a bigger number, and people are going to look
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: at it and go, Okay, we need to revisit anybody
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: that has two thousand hits. Aja, But well, I think
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: and you knew it, you honestly, you knew it, Aja.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: You knew two thousand hits was a huge milestone in
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: your career.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: Correct, Yeah, But it was different for me because I
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: was catcher, So that that was probably why it was
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: a bigger difference than because the position players honestly have
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: a better opportunity other than catchers to pack to load
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: up on the counting numbers, right, because you get to
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: play more, and especially in today's game where you only
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: have you know, catchers, Oh, you can only catch one
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: hundred games because he's gonna be so tired, right, So
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: that's why catchers, I don't know. We'll get to it
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: here later. Kratzy in different tiers because when we get
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: in Jason Starks, we get really weedy and we get
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: into like the deep weeds, like the knee deep weeds,
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: and that's where he has like a catcher's a catcher
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: centric category. We're gonna dig into this a little bit more,
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: but let's go while we have a chance. Let's go
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: to the next tier, and it's in the red zone
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: and across the fifty in the Bryce Harper's in for me,
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: Machado's gonna be in gold. I mean, these four to
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: me are in. I don't know what else these guys
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: can do. Chris Sales Cy Young World Series great numbers,
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: Bryce Harper's in with the m VPS. Pachado's numbers are
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: gonna put him in by the time because he's got like,
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: by the way, y' all forget man Nay Machado has
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: like ten more years left on his on his deal.
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: Means he's gonna keep playing, and he plays even though
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: he's not playing very well. But he's just going to
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: keep adding numbers. And to me, if you haven't looked
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: at Paul Goldschmit numbers, they're sneaky good. Okay, So look
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: at Paul Goldschman and say, I don't know if he's in.
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: He's going to get in, and then if you go
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: to the next one, which is what across the fifty,
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: to me, Jose Ramirez is going to get in one
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: one organization the whole time. And to me, Salvador Prez
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: is going to be in because of his home run Totals,
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: World Series, All Star Games, Gold Gloves. He's got to
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: he checks all the boxes, and again he should only
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: be with one organization his entire career.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: The one on for me is Francisco Lindor.
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: I don't know if he's there yet. For me, he's
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: done a lot, but he hasn't won. He doesn't have
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: an MVP. He doesn't He's got All Star Games, he
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: got Gold Gloves and all that, but I think he's
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: got to do a couple more years. Do you guys
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: disagree with me, Kras Do you disagree that friend Frankie
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: has to do just a little bit more.
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: He does have to do a little bit more. We're
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: at seventeen hundred hits. We're at two eighty five on
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: Homer if that number is way higher than and I
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: thought two eighty five is impressive, Like that is a
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: big time number, the fact that he's got a Platinum Glove,
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: five All Stars for him to do it, he's gonna
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: get up in the seven to nine All Star range.
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: And I think Lindor's superpower as a player may hurt
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: him later in his career. Is the fact that he
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: is mister consistency. They call him mister smile, but he
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: is mister consistency. He is always his ops is always
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: at one twenty, his OPS plus I'm trying to look
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: here what it was for quite a few years. It's
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: like he is so consistent that I think he might
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: have a tough time getting votes without having the big numbers,
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: without having the three thousand or the twenty nine hundred
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: hits or the four hundred homers. I'm not saying he
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: can't make it. I'm saying he's never gonna People are
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: never gonna say got dude was one of the most
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: dominant players of his generation. Like I'm looking at MVP
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: voting twenty four with the Mets, he was set, that's
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: his highest MVP. Then he had a five, then he
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: had a six. He's been in the category, But is
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: he one of the top five most dominant players of
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: his generation to be getting those votes, and that's going
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: to be the part where I look at him and
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: I look at Bryce Harper. His two MVPs are going
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: to push him over. If you if you're trying to
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: compare Apple sapples, totally different players, different positions, all that stuff.
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: I just I just think it might be a little
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: bit tougher for Frankie without getting those big numbers together.
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: Todd thoughts, Yeah, yeah, no, I'm with I'm with both
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: of you guys on this.
• 31:39
  Speaker 5: I think a really really good ballplayer, I don't think
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: Hall of Fame worthy yet. Okay, all of a sudden
• 31:47
  Speaker 5: comes out and is healthy for a whole nother year
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: and just takes off. Hey, then we can start talking.
• 31:52
  Speaker 5: I'm not taking away from every anything from Lindor. I
• 31:55
  Speaker 5: think he's a fantastic ballplayer. But when I think a
• 31:58
  Speaker 5: Hall of Fame, I'm thinking of guys that are gonna
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: be my first pick when I'm doing something. When there
• 32:03
  Speaker 5: asking me who's your first pick at this position? You
• 32:06
  Speaker 5: know who's the guy that you fear the most. I'm
• 32:08
  Speaker 5: not saying I don't fear him, but not in the
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: top categories just yet.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: All right, that's fair, agreed, agreed. All right, let's go
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: to the next Let's go to the next couple. Couple tiers,
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: moving the chains and drive stall. These are the where
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: it gets interesting for me because this is the ones
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: that are really on the bubble. And somebody's got like,
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: okay Wan Soto, he's gonna get in because he's gonna
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: have the numbers. He's gonna have the Kyle Schwarver is
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: gonna hit five hundred home runs. He's gonna get in.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: Bobby Witt right now, for me, the way he's played,
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: if he stays healthy, he's going to get in. But
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: then you go to the middle as yord Don Alvarez
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: done enough, has Matt Olsen done enough? Trey Turner, he's
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: a real interesting one. And then if you go to
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: drive stall, and these are the guys who aren't having
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: a great year. I think Garrett Cole will eventually get in.
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: Vlad but then you go to Stanton, He's gonna hit
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: five hundred homers. Is the auto law right. Correa has
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: gotten hurt the last few years, Bregman Seeger. These guys
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: have heard of Kuna. If you take away the injuries,
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: these are the guys. This is where we could argue
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: back and forth on this. Is there one guy Todd
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: that you pick out and says, this is my argument
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: I want to make for or against them.
• 33:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Like, listen, this is where the rubber meets the
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: road here with Stanton, like his last couple of years
• 33:17
  Speaker 5: with injuries, is that's gonna stall him from not getting in?
• 33:21
  Speaker 5: Is he eventually going to get that five hundred home run?
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: I hope so, Yeah, I think he should. Yeah, just
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: staying healthy might be his biggest concern. I think that's
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: gonna be the tough one. I think there's an opportunity
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: for him to be in the Hall of Fame. Yes,
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: I don't see it in Alvarez, Olsen, and Turner like
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: you talked about. I think the drive stalled for most
• 33:43
  Speaker 5: of those guys really good ball players. But you and
• 33:47
  Speaker 5: me are right on the same page, Garrett call. I
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: think we'll eventually get in too. But I think one
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: hundred per Stanton is the one that I'm I'm really like,
• 33:57
  Speaker 5: this could go either way. I'm leaning more towards end,
• 34:00
  Speaker 5: But everybody else in that drive stall besides Cole, I
• 34:03
  Speaker 5: don't see.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: It perfect perfect Cratsy. What about you?
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: Is there someone that stands out on these two lists
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: you want to fight for or against.
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, man, there's some players that has some really
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: really good seasons. It just depends, obviously how the end goes,
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: if you're gonna if you're gonna put your money on something.
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: Garrett Cole doing what Scherzer did, what Verlander did at
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: the end of their career. You rarely see that from
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: position players. So when I look at position players, when
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: I look at Yelly, he would have to just be
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: elite at you know, even after he's done the done
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: his contract with the Brewers, like, he would have to
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: really continue to put up numbers, and it's so much
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: tougher for position players. So that's who I would look at.
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: I don't think corn Burns is gonna have enough, have
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: enough time to do it. To me. The one on
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: this list, I'm gonna say, Jordan Alvarez. I don't know
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: how they're gonna look at Kyle Schwarber. The fact that
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: you know, if he gets to I think he needs
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: like thing he needs right at like one hundred and
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: forty homers, one hundred and twenty I forget how many
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: to get to five hundred. I think he'll do it.
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: In his time with the Phillies. In his five year contract,
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: he's got four more left. But Jordan Alvarez and I
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: have him higher on the list. I think he he
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: wins a triple crown this year he ends up winning
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: the MVP. I think that puts his numbers more in
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: the limelight for a lot of people to start looking
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: at it and go exactly what I talked about, Lindor,
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: this dude is one of the best hitters in the game.
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: I get it, the only dhs, But are we gonna
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: start getting more dhs in the game when you're talking
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: about a guy who does stuff that is elite nowadays,
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: a three hundred hitter who puts out thirty five plus
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: drives in one hundred and twenty. We don't see that now.
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: We don't see that in the game, And I think
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: that gives him the best shot out of that list
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: to guys that we're talking about here.
• 36:05

• 37:04
  Speaker 1: All right, that's fair, all right. Last one that we're
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: going to the corners.
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: These are kind of specific places and specific things right now. Again,
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: it just keeps getting harder and harder because these are
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: some names. Right We're gonna start Starter's Corner. Jacob de Grohm.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: He's had great years when he's healthy. He's got the
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: Cy Youngs. Not a lot of wins, not a lot
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: of bulk, right, Zach Wheeler, to me, we can make
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: this argument in Paul Skemes has so much of his
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: career left. Yes, Trek Schoolboy is an interesting because he
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: was hurt, but he's had the great years. Miserowski's too
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: young to even get into this, right, it's too early.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: But then the closers, Okay, Kenley Jansen should be in,
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: Chatman's gonna get in, Kimberll should get in if you
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: just look at bulk numbers. But then a rold As Chapman,
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: if you go with those three e rold As Chapman
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: should be in because he's had an unbelievable career, and
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Edwin Diaz has to do more. For me Catchers, I
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: think all three of these guys have to do more
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: if we just look at bulk numbers and guys that
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: have gotten in. When a Buster Posey gets it, although
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: his numbers are going to be less, but he has
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: the MVP in the World series, right, I think these
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: three guys have work to do. Uh Krassy, any thoughts
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: on any of these specialized corners about.
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: Guys that we get in. We can't put Miseroski in
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: this list like, I'm sorry the mis like is that's unfair.
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: I get it.
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: It's you know, it's the big name and with schemes,
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: too much has to happen yet for us to even
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: talk about it. Could he absolutely, But to me, this
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: list is contingent on when and if Degram is done
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: after this year or next year. Whenever's Wheeler and de Grom.
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: They could both blaze a trail for each other. Ironic
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: they were teammates. And then you're gonna have to compare
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: their numbers. Wheeler, a guy who never was thought of
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: as dominant, never won the cy Young could have won
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: it three or four times, I think, I think three times.
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: But Jacob de Gram has won it. So if de
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: Gram gets in with the lesser numbers didn't stay healthy,
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: you would say, man, that dude was dominant when he
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: was out on the field. And if he moves the
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: goalpost for starters, I think eventually they would look at
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: the numbers of Zach Wheeler and go, yo, why is
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: de Gram in and not Wheeler? Type of thing?
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: I think the.
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: Closer argument and if you could say how many closers
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: are in are in the hall of fame right now,
• 39:26
  Speaker 3: in my mind, I can only think of three, and
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: you're talking about elite of the elite. It's Lee Smith,
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: Mario Rivera, and Trevor Hoffman. And to say there's three
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: from our generation, I think is conceited of our generation.
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: I think they're elite pitchers, But to say three of
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: them just based on history, I have a tough time.
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: I know we're in more of a closer's market now,
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: or closers game. I think they have. You know, we
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: had starter that were throwing so many innings, so it
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: will change, But I don't see how those guys stay out.
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: But I also don't see how our generation can get
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: three in when the history of baseball had only three.
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: I think there was a couple more there with.
• 40:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, either way, I'm gonna be real brief here. If
• 40:23
  Speaker 5: you could put that screen back up, my computer's acting
• 40:26
  Speaker 5: up here for me.
• 40:29
  Speaker 4: Chapman's a definite, Kenlee Jansen definite. Everybody else.
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: I'm not sure it's the elite of the elite. If
• 40:36
  Speaker 5: the Grom gets in, Wheeler's got to get in. My opinion.
• 40:38
  Speaker 5: If Wheeler gets into, Grom's gotta get in. These two
• 40:41
  Speaker 5: were like twins when they played, So that was my
• 40:43
  Speaker 5: biggest thing. Skiing school boy Misowski still needs time to go.
• 40:48
  Speaker 5: If you're looking at the elite of the elite, the
• 40:50
  Speaker 5: three catchers, I don't think so as of right now.
• 40:55
  Speaker 5: But yeah, that's my take on those three.
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: All right, that's fair. We all have opinions.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: And the thing is, closers I think are going to
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: start getting in more because people are realizing the value of.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: Closers in today's gain.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: Right, So there's no before it wasn't Oh you had
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: to be Goose Gossage and you had to be rolly
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: fingers and throw three inning saves. People are now realizing
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: how special it is to be able to pitch the
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: ninth inning.
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: And I think that's good.
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: So I don't know.
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: We can argue about this until the cows come home,
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: but instead now we get to argue with Katie wou
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: next from Dodgers Territory. I can't wait to hear her
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: tell us how good the Dodgers are. After In the
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: Weeds was presented by MLB nine Innings and Rivals twenty six.

• 41:44
  Speaker 2: as brand new cards. We'll be right back after a
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: word from Bryce Harper. Oh my goodness, what did Harper
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: do to that chicken?
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: That is not how you draw it up? Nice.
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: Harper is on fire, you red velvet guy.
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: From the first stap to the last stout, MLB nine
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: innings rivals always greens Baseball to light.
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: Uh, this is near and dear to my heart.
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: Guys Fox one, I mean as a Fox employee, I
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: love Fox.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: I love Fox one. So please get your seven day
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: free trial. We can.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: We'll start with the Little Fellows game. Ken Rosenthal he
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: has the Dodgers and the Mets tomorrow. He mentioned the
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: pitching out matchup Yamamoto versus McClain. Mets are eleven games
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: out of a wildcard spot and they're talking about getting
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: rid of Freddy Peralta and Francisco Lindor Todd As our
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: resident met Ex player, are the Mets done?
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: And what do you think about this game tomorrow?
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah? I think, honestly, yeah I do. I do think
• 42:59
  Speaker 4: they're done.
• 42:59
  Speaker 5: I'm you never could say never, But the way the
• 43:02
  Speaker 5: things have been going, it's gonna be very hard for
• 43:05
  Speaker 5: them to get back to where they need to be.
• 43:09
  Speaker 5: I mean, they got really good pitching coming up today tomorrow.
• 43:12
  Speaker 5: I love Nolan MacLean. I gotta be honest with you.
• 43:14
  Speaker 5: I do love him. He does have a good opportunity
• 43:17
  Speaker 5: to be Rookie of the Year. But Sazaki and Yamamoto
• 43:21
  Speaker 5: back to back, and then tomorrow, oh wee wi Yamamoto.
• 43:24
  Speaker 5: It's it's gonna be It's gonna be hard. I mean,
• 43:27
  Speaker 5: it just seems like the Mets are behind the eight
• 43:29
  Speaker 5: ball every game they play, so very hard for them
• 43:32
  Speaker 5: to get back to.
• 43:33
  Speaker 4: Where they need to be.
• 43:34
  Speaker 5: Listen at the end of the day, and I'll say
• 43:36
  Speaker 5: this all the time, say to everybody, talk to you,
• 43:38
  Speaker 5: it's great for the Mets to be in the playoffs
• 43:40
  Speaker 5: in the Northeast. This would be great. I root for
• 43:42
  Speaker 5: them to be in the playoffs every year, but it's
• 43:46
  Speaker 5: just not the year.
• 43:47
  Speaker 4: It looks like.
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: That's fair, that's fair, that's interested all right.
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: The other game is the Mariners against the Rangers. I
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: can't I'm not I'm gonna go Kirk kurb Street. I'm
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: not gonna comment on this game because I have to
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: work it.
• 44:01
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: That's how That's how they get away with our college
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: game day.
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: Kirk Curve for you.
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: You know, it's the biggest game of the year with
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: Kirk you're calling it, so you can't talk about it.
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: So crap.
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: It is supposed to be WU first, Nasty Nay Deivaldi,
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: and then it's the Rangers are actually in first place,
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: which at fifty one and fifty one going into tonight,
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: they have a four game series. It's gonna be the
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: second game of a four game series. What are you
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: looking forward to in the Rangers and the Mariners.
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: Well, I love the fact that Fox is covering it
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: because I know you guys will do a great job. Sorry,
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: the music got a little louder, but I know you're
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: gonna do a great job covering this pillow fight. Reality
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: is we're watching two teams that, in my opinion, should
• 44:40
  Speaker 3: be better. I think the Mariners record should be better.
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: I think they haven't had guys step up where they
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: need to. I think they've had guys like you know,
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: it's inconceivable that Cal Rowley's doing what he's doing, and
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: they were leaning on that offense and he just hasn't
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: been able to do it, so maybe he starts capturing
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: it in this AO West matchup. But reality, like, let's
• 45:04
  Speaker 3: just call a spade a spade. We're one hundred plus
• 45:07
  Speaker 3: games into the season. Fox is covering a pillow fight.
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: Fortunately both teams are fighting with the same pillows for
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: the American League West, and one team could step up
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: here and take a quote stranglehold on this division through
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: this series. But reality is, it'll probably be a two
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: games split. Here'll be two and two, and we'll just
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: continue to do unless these teams make the adjustment that
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: I'm not even sure exactly which team needs to make
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: what adjustments.
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: True.
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: True, And by the way, every time I do a
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: Mariner's game, I want to call them the semen, and
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: I just get shot down by my Fox bosses.
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know why because Hawlck Carroll said that.
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: Because Hawk Harrelson once said when the Mariners were playing
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: the White Sox, the sacks are packed with semen, and he.
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: Got in trouble.
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: So I don't know why they won't allow me to
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: say that line, but thought it was a great line
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: from Hawk.
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: Now you got it out here, now you got it
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: out here Todd was on New Jersey. People hear it
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: and they'll be like, yo, I kind of like that
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: a j prosis. Yet I didn't like him when he
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: was a player, but yo, I kind of like him now.
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the bag was he when you say the sacks
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: are full of seamen or the sacks are packed with seemen.
• 46:18
  Speaker 4: It was.
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: He got in trouble for that one. But it's Hawk.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: He could do Todd. You're around Hawk, you know he
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: could get away with whatever he wanted. So it was great,
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: great line.
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: I've asked every time I do a Mariners game, I
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: get shot down, So I gotta be careful with that one.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: But anyways, tune in on Saturday Fox one. MLB on
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: Fox is streaming on Fox one. The Race October starts.

  Speaker 2: and hopefully we're not talking about pillow fights.
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: Oh we're back for slap fans.
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, we don't even do we even have to
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: ask about what hat crotches wearing today. I mean, Todd,
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: I won't even make these zero guesses to figure it out.
• 47:15
  Speaker 5: Plus here, yeah, I'm yeah, it has to be l
• 47:21
  Speaker 5: Brew Crew.
• 47:21
  Speaker 4: Go ahead, Cratzy.
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: Well, actually, I'm not gonna turn it around because I
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: sent the picture. I think Claude should have the picture.
• 47:28
  Speaker 3: If she has it, Uh, that would be the hat
• 47:31
  Speaker 3: that Yeah, so we'll go ahead and show the picture
• 47:34
  Speaker 3: of the hat that Shaugar sent to me because I
• 47:36
  Speaker 3: talked trash about him one time on the show. So
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: this is the hat that he said I was supposed
• 47:40
  Speaker 3: to wear for the show because he said I got
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: a bucket. I got a buck ahead, so it was
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: the only one that was gonna fit. So yeah, of
• 47:51
  Speaker 3: course that looks normal. How could I not wear? How
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: could I not wear the Brew Crew hat. I'm on
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: team whist Oats for the Legends game, so maybe I'll
• 48:04
  Speaker 3: get the the Wisco hat. I'm not even sure. I
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: don't know that I one hundred percent agree with the
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: Wisco name. Nobody really calls it Wisco. They said some
• 48:14
  Speaker 3: outsiders that weren't even from Wisconsin call it Whisco. So
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: either way, the park is starting to fill up. I'm
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: watching the Rockies take BP and I'm definitely going the
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: under on home runs. It's set ato point five, the
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: ball's not traveling, the roof's open. Something's gonna have to change.
• 48:35
  Speaker 3: But legends game, I'm taking the under old amount of
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: home runs for the whole game.
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: Crads.
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: Before we let you go, Todd, I got to ask
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: Kratzis there's two things. First of all, did Schager come
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: up to you and say do you know who I am?
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: Because he did that to me at the winter meetings
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: and I'm like, yes, I know who you are, so
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: don't have her ask me that again. He does it
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: every time he sees me. Now he comes he's an
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: equipment guy.
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: For the Brudge.
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: He's like, do you know who I am? I'm like, yes,
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: I know who you are, so stop bothering me.
• 48:59
  Speaker 3: You're weird.
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: And then, second of all, Krats, can you get Vasalo
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: or somebody in the Brewers organization to let you slide
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: down the slide and run in the sausage race.
• 49:14
  Speaker 3: Well, I don't want to run in the sausage race. Yes, so,
• 49:18
  Speaker 3: because the last time foul territory was allowed on the
• 49:20
  Speaker 3: sausage race, you cheated and he brought disgrace to the
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: sausage race and disgrace to the foul territory network. The slide.
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: I'm telling you, like, there's some things that are in
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: Milwaukee here that are great experiences. Sliding down the slide
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: was intimidating and so much fun. But it's also like
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: getting into Fort Knox like to be allowed to do
• 49:44
  Speaker 3: it. It might be easier now that I'm not a player.
• 49:47
  Speaker 3: I almost broke my ankle sliding all the way through.
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: It's a short landing spot and I hit the wall.
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: So I don't think I can do it, but I
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: will definitely ask somebody. But during the game, that's like
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: sacred ground. You can't. You can't just go up there.
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: Got during the game, after the game, before the game,
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: if you hit a home run in the alumni game,
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: when you're in second base, you should just run right
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: out there and climb up to Bernie Chalet and slide
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: down by yourself. But we cannot wait. We cannot wait
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: to hear about this. Next week, Scott's back sadly to
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: say no more players only show Scott's gonna tell us
• 50:17
