Transcript
- 0:11Speaker 1: Hey, good morning to you eight o'clock hour here on
- 0:13Speaker 1: this Thursday.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Great to have you with us.
- 0:15Speaker 1: When I say us, I mean Ashley Ryan and myself
- 0:17Speaker 1: Chuck Powell, as we welcome you back into the radio
- 0:20Speaker 1: show and joining us now on the program. With the
- 0:23Speaker 1: MLB Draft two days away and all sorts of things
- 0:26Speaker 1: to talk about in terms of prospects in our baseball organization,
- 0:30Speaker 1: we're going to bring in one of the tops in
- 0:32Speaker 1: the business from MLB dot Com and MLB Pipeline. It
- 0:35Speaker 1: is a pleasure on what has to be his busiest
- 0:38Speaker 1: week of the entire year, to bring Jonathan Mayo aboard
- 0:41Speaker 1: with us here on Chuck and Buck.
- 0:43Speaker 3: Hi, Jonavan, Hey, Chuck, how's it going.
- 0:46Speaker 2: We're great. How busy are you these days?
- 0:50Speaker 3: Well, I mean right now, it's good. I'm driving to
- 0:52Speaker 3: Philadelphia for the draft. Okay, this talking tax code than a.
- 0:59Speaker 2: Fifty ah, I see.
- 1:03Speaker 1: So what are you looking more forward to your first
- 1:05Speaker 1: Philly cheese steak of the trip or the first pick
- 1:08Speaker 1: in the draft?
- 1:08Speaker 2: What's what do you got your mouth ready for?
- 1:12Speaker 3: Well, you know, I went to College of Philadelphia. It's
- 1:15Speaker 3: been a while, so I'm still going to say the
- 1:18Speaker 3: first pick in the draft.
- 1:19Speaker 2: Though, fair enough, who's it going to be?
- 1:22Speaker 1: I mean, all along we thought it was going to
- 1:24Speaker 1: be this Rock Chalowsky from UCLA, But now I'm starting
- 1:28Speaker 1: to hear the high school kid Emerson might be the
- 1:31Speaker 1: number one selection to the White Sox.
- 1:33Speaker 2: What are you hearing? And what would you do?
- 1:38Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's going to be one of those
- 1:40Speaker 3: two players. And you know, it's still very much could
- 1:43Speaker 3: be Rock Schulawski, who kind of gone wire to wire
- 1:46Speaker 3: as one, you know, one of the top guys that
- 1:48Speaker 3: seemed like a slam dunk back when the White Sox
- 1:51Speaker 3: won the lottery in December at the winter meetings. And
- 1:56Speaker 3: you know, this is why you go and scout the
- 1:58Speaker 3: games and evaluate the play and meet with them and
- 2:01Speaker 3: do all the things. And it's not that Rock Sulawski
- 2:03Speaker 3: did anything wrong. It's that the Grady Emerson, the high
- 2:06Speaker 3: school shortstop you're referring to, is really really good. It
- 2:10Speaker 3: might have a higher ceiling than Schelaski. So I think
- 2:13Speaker 3: it's gonna come down to the wire. And I would
- 2:15Speaker 3: love to be in the White Sox draft room because
- 2:18Speaker 3: I'm sure there are advocates for for both of them
- 2:21Speaker 3: pounding the table that this should be the guy to
- 2:23Speaker 3: go one to one?
- 2:24Speaker 2: Is this?
- 2:26Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if this is being considered
- 2:28Speaker 1: like one of the better drafts in a while, but
- 2:31Speaker 1: it does seem to be the one that has the
- 2:34Speaker 1: fewest answers right now. Has it been tough piecing together
- 2:38Speaker 1: your mock draft? How successful do you think you'll be
- 2:41Speaker 1: in nailing picks here?
- 2:44Speaker 3: I mean I should say to get people to go
- 2:46Speaker 3: check out the last one that I'm gonna get them,
- 2:48Speaker 3: all right, I know better. So it's alwaysless and it's
- 2:52Speaker 3: always tough, and you know, I feel like I should
- 2:56Speaker 3: talk to people who do it in other sports to
- 2:58Speaker 3: see how differs. But this year, in particular, it's very muddled.
- 3:06Speaker 3: There's you know, there's a top three players and Chlaski,
- 3:09Speaker 3: Emerson and Georgia Tech catch upon Lackey, and then there's
- 3:13Speaker 3: a top six they could go in kind of any order,
- 3:16Speaker 3: and then after that there's not a lot of separation
- 3:20Speaker 3: and anything could happen. So trying to figure out how
- 3:25Speaker 3: the dominoes are going to fall is extremely difficult because
- 3:30Speaker 3: as you do in mock draft, Okay, let's say player
- 3:33Speaker 3: X is gonna go number seven, then what is team
- 3:39Speaker 3: number eight gonna do well. They might have a reaction
- 3:42Speaker 3: to what I think is gonna happen at seven. But
- 3:45Speaker 3: if that doesn't happen at seven, then everything kind of
- 3:47Speaker 3: falls apart, like a house of cards.
- 3:49Speaker 1: Who is your personal favorite, not necessarily your best, but
- 3:52Speaker 1: who's the guy that Jonathan Mayo is hanging his hat
- 3:55Speaker 1: on in this draft?
- 3:58Speaker 3: Well, I'm gonna go a little bit deeper. I mean,
- 4:01Speaker 3: I love Rock Chilawski, and I like Grady Anderson, I like,
- 4:03Speaker 3: you know, the top guys are really really talented, and
- 4:07Speaker 3: I've had the benefit of being able to talk to
- 4:10Speaker 3: a lot of them. But one of my favorites, sort
- 4:12Speaker 3: of a little bit later on guys is Mulva Lavoue.
- 4:15Speaker 3: He was the first baseman at CLA. He can really
- 4:19Speaker 3: really hit. I think teams are sleeping on him a
- 4:22Speaker 3: little bit, and he's probably, you know, he might go
- 4:24Speaker 3: in the second round, maybe he sneaks into that the
- 4:28Speaker 3: sort of top round area, somewhere in that twenty six
- 4:31Speaker 3: to forty range, but more likely a second rounder. He's
- 4:34Speaker 3: a better athlete than people give him credit for. I
- 4:37Speaker 3: got a chance to talk to him about his Samoan background.
- 4:41Speaker 3: He actually has been an active fire knifer. Have you
- 4:44Speaker 3: ever seen those these guys fire twirling talk about good
- 4:49Speaker 3: hand eye coordination. I'm sure a major league team that
- 4:52Speaker 3: takes him will will want him to stop doing that.
- 4:54Speaker 3: But he's been doing it since he was like nine
- 4:57Speaker 3: years old. But aside from his his background and the
- 5:00Speaker 3: pride in his background, I think the dude can really hit.
- 5:03Speaker 3: He's an excellent first baseman, and maybe give him a
- 5:06Speaker 3: chance to play third or a corner outfield spotlight. This
- 5:09Speaker 3: guy went to the combine, could have just went met
- 5:12Speaker 3: with teams, could have just taken batting practice because this
- 5:15Speaker 3: is bad. But he took brown ball to third, he
- 5:19Speaker 3: took the balls to the outfield. He hasn't done either
- 5:22Speaker 3: in a number of years in games. So just to
- 5:26Speaker 3: show teams like, hey, I'm up for doing anything you
- 5:29Speaker 3: want me to try to do. I want to prove
- 5:30Speaker 3: to you that I'm not just this one dimensional player.
- 5:34Speaker 3: I kind of like that about him.
- 5:35Speaker 1: Oh, I like a utility player, guy who plays second, third,
- 5:37Speaker 1: and and be a fire knifer. That's that's some versatility
- 5:42Speaker 1: right there. And I also know who's gonna win the
- 5:44Speaker 1: Rookie Talent Show whenever he gets called up to the majors.
- 5:48Speaker 2: That's a given as well. Jonathan Mayo is with us
- 5:51Speaker 2: here on Chuck and Buck in the Morning.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Sports Radio ninety three point three kJ RFM Prospects Expert,
- 5:57Speaker 1: Draft Expert.
- 5:58Speaker 2: The Draft coming up in two days.
- 5:59Speaker 1: Mariners pick a number twenty four, So the not the
- 6:03Speaker 1: situation they were in a year ago when they grabbed
- 6:06Speaker 1: Kate Anderson. And I know it's very difficult to project,
- 6:09Speaker 1: but give me an idea as to somebody that might
- 6:12Speaker 1: be available that makes.
- 6:14Speaker 2: Sense for the Mariners down there at twenty four.
- 6:17Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not a terrible draft to be picking late
- 6:21Speaker 3: in the first round, and obviously that's what every major
- 6:22Speaker 3: league team wants anyway, to be picking late in the
- 6:25Speaker 3: first round, because I think the strength of this class
- 6:28Speaker 3: is the depth. So you might get a player at
- 6:31Speaker 3: twenty four who's just as good as the player someone
- 6:33Speaker 3: gets at ten. And what I like about the Mariners
- 6:38Speaker 3: philosophy is they tend to just go after the best
- 6:42Speaker 3: available player wherever they're picking in the draft, and they're
- 6:45Speaker 3: liable to go after just about any demographic. I don't
- 6:49Speaker 3: think they'll be taking a high school pitcher in the
- 6:52Speaker 3: first round, but there are some college pitchers. You know
- 6:55Speaker 3: that they've had success in doing that, you know, not
- 6:59Speaker 3: that long ago. You know your your big league rotation
- 7:02Speaker 3: right now? Uh are the fruits of that labor. So
- 7:06Speaker 3: a guy like Tiking Koons from Tennessee, A hundred deeps
- 7:10Speaker 3: from Arkansas, a really interesting wildcards logan redimen from u C.
- 7:15Speaker 3: L A who missed six weeks of the season. Uh,
- 7:18Speaker 3: with what turned out to be a flexer stream. But
- 7:21Speaker 3: if the medicals are right, that could be a really
- 7:24Speaker 3: interesting pick. And then you know the other demographics that
- 7:27Speaker 3: they like our high school hitters and there could be
- 7:32Speaker 3: some good left handed high school hitters, Uh, Trevor Condon
- 7:36Speaker 3: that he's around, uh, Boul Lawrence from South Carolina. Uh,
- 7:41Speaker 3: you know there are some really interesting high school hitters there.
- 7:45Speaker 3: And then they're there's some from the college hitter camp
- 7:48Speaker 3: that Samaras don't often do in the first round. But
- 7:52Speaker 3: there could be a fool of them uh after the
- 7:55Speaker 3: first tier that are that are available to them, and
- 7:59Speaker 3: some might end up getting to them that they don't expect.
- 8:03Speaker 3: And I think that's they're in this position where they
- 8:05Speaker 3: can kind of wait and it's someone they thought leading
- 8:08Speaker 3: into Saturday. Oh that guy's going to go in the
- 8:11Speaker 3: teams and suddenly they're at twenty four, they'll be ready
- 8:13Speaker 3: to make a decision to take that guy.
- 8:16Speaker 2: Jonathan.
- 8:16Speaker 1: You know, a lot of sports fans like to call
- 8:19Speaker 1: I'm not one of them. I love drafts, so, but
- 8:22Speaker 1: a lot of sports fans like to just consider it
- 8:24Speaker 1: a crap shoot. And if there's a and baseballs might
- 8:28Speaker 1: be the crappiest, I mean, it might be the one
- 8:30Speaker 1: that is the most difficult one to nail. And yet
- 8:34Speaker 1: the Mariners have had a lot of success with the
- 8:37Speaker 1: draft and the Jerry Depoto era. Is that something that
- 8:40Speaker 1: you have recognized that the industry is recognized. Are the
- 8:44Speaker 1: Mariners considered good at this? Excellent at this? Across the board?
- 8:52Speaker 3: They're very good at it, and you have the top
- 8:55Speaker 3: twost is they have sure background, They direct a hunter
- 9:06Speaker 3: and then they're in lotstep with their player development people.
- 9:10Speaker 3: So justin Toole, who heads up that department, the kinds
- 9:14Speaker 3: of players they do well with. Uh, there's a lot
- 9:18Speaker 3: of communication back and forth. It's not just draft players
- 9:23Speaker 3: you want, so we're going to get the best out
- 9:27Speaker 3: of them. Everyone knew that Logan Gilbert had a good arm,
- 9:30Speaker 3: but you still you know, and he was a college guy,
- 9:32Speaker 3: saying with George Kirby advanced Steelers flight zone. But you
- 9:36Speaker 3: still want to tease more velocity out of them. You
- 9:39Speaker 3: still want to turn them into a more complete picture.
- 9:42Speaker 3: Uh And and they have been able to do that
- 9:45Speaker 3: time and time again. And not just the first rounders.
- 9:49Speaker 3: I mean we're you know, Brian wu was not a
- 9:51Speaker 3: first rounder. You know, Bryce Miller not a first rounder.
- 9:54Speaker 3: So they've done a very good job of finding count
- 9:57Speaker 3: throughout the draft. And yes, the draft is really hard.
- 10:00Speaker 3: A tiny percentage of players get drafted to make it
- 10:03Speaker 3: to the big leagues. But I do think that the
- 10:06Speaker 3: Mariners have a well deserved reputation of scouting, drafting, signing,
- 10:13Speaker 3: and developing big leaders.
- 10:14Speaker 1: All Right, Well, now that we have you, and I
- 10:16Speaker 1: know you're busy, and I know we a part of
- 10:18Speaker 1: it wanted to be to talk about the draft, but
- 10:20Speaker 1: I also want to get your thoughts on the prospects
- 10:23Speaker 1: that we've got coming up. Last year's first round pick.
- 10:25Speaker 1: How good is Kate Anderson According to Jonathan Mayo, I.
- 10:31Speaker 3: Mean, it doesn't take a rocket science just to say
- 10:34Speaker 3: he's really, really good. You can look at the surface
- 10:39Speaker 3: numbers and think he's really good, and then you can
- 10:41Speaker 3: look a little deeper. You know, when when you take
- 10:44Speaker 3: a guy out of a program like LSU and you
- 10:48Speaker 3: take him number three overall, you're hoping he's an advanced
- 10:52Speaker 3: college pitcher who can move pretty quickly. And then when
- 10:55Speaker 3: that guy is better than expected, that's you know, that's
- 10:59Speaker 3: you You've hit the jackpot. Now, he hasn't gone to
- 11:03Speaker 3: the big leagues yet, but honestly, if this was another organization,
- 11:06Speaker 3: he might be in the big leagues already. There's nothing
- 11:09Speaker 3: left for him to prove a double A. But I
- 11:12Speaker 3: also understand if you're the Mariners, you know, you're trying
- 11:17Speaker 3: to pump the brakes a little bit. You could move
- 11:19Speaker 3: him the triple A. I guess maybe that will happen
- 11:22Speaker 3: at some point, but then he run not the risk.
- 11:26Speaker 3: But then he might be there for a while, you know,
- 11:29Speaker 3: because where are you gonna put him. It wouldn't shock
- 11:33Speaker 3: me if you saw him in Seattle at the end
- 11:35Speaker 3: of the year. I think he could probably help them out,
- 11:38Speaker 3: even if it's out of the bullpen for a short
- 11:41Speaker 3: period of time. But he's kind of close to a
- 11:45Speaker 3: finished products and it's only because of how deep the
- 11:49Speaker 3: big league rotation is And how good that stat is
- 11:52Speaker 3: that you're not hearing the knock on the door as
- 11:56Speaker 3: loudly as it would be if if we're in a
- 11:58Speaker 3: more pitching for organization.
- 12:00Speaker 2: Is Ryan Sloan even better?
- 12:04Speaker 3: Well, we don't have him right as better, so I'll
- 12:06Speaker 3: say no. But he's pretty good too. And you know,
- 12:09Speaker 3: keep in mind that he's you know, taken out of
- 12:12Speaker 3: high school. Uh and not like he was from southern California,
- 12:17Speaker 3: but he was one of these rare sort of tall
- 12:22Speaker 3: high school right handers with an advanced feel for pitching,
- 12:26Speaker 3: almost like a college guy, which is why he's handling
- 12:29Speaker 3: double a well. And there's probably some more to unlocked there,
- 12:33Speaker 3: I mean there, I guess he and Kate Anderson aren't
- 12:36Speaker 3: that much different age wise. But it's a really really
- 12:41Speaker 3: good one two punch and as good a one two punch.
- 12:44Speaker 3: You know, I live in Pittsburgh, and you know, for
- 12:47Speaker 3: for Span all, it was Bubba Chandler and Seth Fernandez.
- 12:51Speaker 3: Uh uh. And I again, I guess if Bubba Schandler
- 12:54Speaker 3: first started out when Schemes was first arriving, those two
- 12:58Speaker 3: belong in that conver station in terms of the best
- 13:02Speaker 3: one two pitching companies and they're pitching together at the
- 13:06Speaker 3: same level. They could be. You know, I think Anderson
- 13:09Speaker 3: gets Seattle first, but I think Sloan is not that
- 13:14Speaker 3: far behind him. So if and when there comes a
- 13:17Speaker 3: time when one of the guys in the Seattle rotation
- 13:21Speaker 3: either he used to be a free agency or there's
- 13:23Speaker 3: an injury or something what ever happens, that there are
- 13:27Speaker 3: reinforcements just about ready, and I think either one of
- 13:31Speaker 3: them could compete at the big league level now with
- 13:34Speaker 3: Slow maybe a half a step behind developmentally, just because
- 13:38Speaker 3: of the not the college experience, you know, maybe not
- 13:42Speaker 3: quite as Paulus's Gate is.
- 13:44Speaker 1: Last couple, and we appreciate your time here this morning,
- 13:47Speaker 1: but Las Montes and Michael Royo both got elevated to
- 13:51Speaker 1: Triple A Tacoma here recently. Your thoughts on them, I mean,
- 13:55Speaker 1: we've got a struggling offense right now. Maybe it turns
- 13:58Speaker 1: around in the second half, But are either of those guys,
- 14:01Speaker 1: both of those guys capable of youth do you think
- 14:05Speaker 1: stepping up to the majors and potentially contributing and helping
- 14:08Speaker 1: out this offense this year?
- 14:12Speaker 3: Well, I'm guessing that they got moved to Triple A
- 14:14Speaker 3: to try to help answer that question. Yeah, if I
- 14:18Speaker 3: were to have guessed, if you had asked me this
- 14:20Speaker 3: question before the promotions, I would have probably put a
- 14:25Speaker 3: Royo ahead of Montes in terms of the when will
- 14:29Speaker 3: they be big lead ready meter? If that's the thing.
- 14:33Speaker 3: You know, Montes has as much rough power as just
- 14:37Speaker 3: about anybody in the minor leagues, and he's proven that
- 14:40Speaker 3: he can get to it, but there's also a good
- 14:43Speaker 3: amount of swing and miss. So I'm curious to see
- 14:47Speaker 3: what happens in triple A. You know, I think that
- 14:53Speaker 3: there could be an opportunity down the stretch for either
- 14:57Speaker 3: or both of them to help out, depending on where
- 15:00Speaker 3: where the need is in terms of how do you
- 15:03Speaker 3: fit them into the lineup. As long as you know,
- 15:06Speaker 3: I think last Monts could come up and hit some
- 15:09Speaker 3: homers and drive in some runs, and he's going to
- 15:11Speaker 3: carry the back back to the dugout quite a bit.
- 15:13Speaker 3: And he might do that throughout his career, and in
- 15:16Speaker 3: today's game, you know that that that's not a knock.
- 15:20Speaker 3: You know that that happens a lot with guys like that.
- 15:24Speaker 3: I think the more that he can refine his approach
- 15:28Speaker 3: to the plate, so he's drawing walks, so he's not
- 15:31Speaker 3: missing the pitches that he should be driving. So so
- 15:36Speaker 3: he gets to that power, then he has a chance
- 15:38Speaker 3: to be I don't know he's ever gonna be. He's
- 15:40Speaker 3: never gonna compete for a batting title, but he has
- 15:42Speaker 3: a chance to hit a lot of home runs at
- 15:44Speaker 3: the big league level. And I think Arroyo, you know,
- 15:47Speaker 3: has a chance to be a good all around hit
- 15:51Speaker 3: or they're both so young, so there might be some
- 15:54Speaker 3: some thumps that you're seeing from some of the ear
- 15:57Speaker 3: young hitters in Seattle. Now, as long as you don't
- 16:01Speaker 3: mind some swing and miss, you might have some guys
- 16:04Speaker 3: who could could do some dama.
- 16:05Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you're on your way to Philadelphia. Let's just
- 16:08Speaker 1: pretend that it's seventeen seventy six and you and Jim
- 16:11Speaker 1: Callus are having your uh founding Forefathers mock draft. Who's
- 16:16Speaker 1: your number one founding forefather draft pick on your mock
- 16:19Speaker 1: draft board right now?
- 16:20Speaker 2: Jonathan.
- 16:22Speaker 3: It's funny because I told Jim that I want him
- 16:25Speaker 3: to announce all the picks like a pound crier and
- 16:27Speaker 3: an independent square. I'm gonna go looking. I'm gonna go
- 16:31Speaker 3: looking for a three cornered hat for us to wear
- 16:35Speaker 3: for day two. But you know, I go back and
- 16:39Speaker 3: forth between who I'm who I who I want them
- 16:43Speaker 3: to take away think they're gonna take right now. What
- 16:47Speaker 3: I'm hearing is maybe Rock. I think there's a slight
- 16:50Speaker 3: edge towards Rock Kilowski. Okay, it's gonna be Emerson that much.
- 16:55Speaker 2: I know. All right, Thanks man, We appreciate it. Have
- 16:57Speaker 2: a great time, all right, Thanks shuck. All right.
- 17:00Speaker 1: Jonathan Mayo joining us right here on Chuck and Buck
- 17:03Speaker 1: in the morning. If you want to follow Jonathan, you
- 17:06Speaker 1: can do so at Jonathan Mayo m A Y and
- 17:11Speaker 1: he's got his latest mock draft up and of course
- 17:14Speaker 1: all sorts of coverage available to you at MLB dot
- 17:16Speaker 1: com and MLB Pipeline dot com. He didn't quite hear
- 17:20Speaker 1: the question. I think that's because he was driving and
- 17:22Speaker 1: it might have been windy, might have had a window.
- 17:24Speaker 4: Down, went through the Pennsylvania Mountains.
- 17:26Speaker 1: Yeah, but the question, the final question actually was if
- 17:29Speaker 1: it was seventeen seventy six and you're putting together your
- 17:31Speaker 1: founding forefather mock draft, who's your number one founding four fathers?
- 17:35Speaker 1: Who goes number one off the board for you. Yeah,
- 17:38Speaker 1: oh gosh, I mean, is it just a no brainer?
- 17:41Speaker 1: It's Benjamin Franklin, or do you? I mean, do you
- 17:44Speaker 1: to throw a curveball with John.
- 17:46Speaker 4: Hancock, Herby Hancock, Doey.
- 17:51Speaker 2: Thomas, Jefferson. I mean, I don't know. George Washington. It's
- 17:55Speaker 2: a tough one. It's a tough call.
- 17:56Speaker 5: I think I'm gonna have to go George Washington because
- 18:00Speaker 5: we live in Washington, and really he's just he's the
- 18:04Speaker 5: ultimate father.
- 18:05Speaker 4: Yeah, I think of think of our country.
- 18:07Speaker 2: Okay, that's your number one pick. Then what about you?
- 18:11Speaker 2: I'm Benjamin Franklin. Oh yeah, most interesting time.
- 18:15Speaker 4: That would be my second. I mean that would be
- 18:18Speaker 4: I could call him one A, one B.
- 18:19Speaker 3: Is that right?
- 18:20Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd go Jefferson ahead of Washington. I think it's
- 18:23Speaker 1: ridiculous that you went Washington. Wow.
- 18:25Speaker 4: Yeah, well we might have to fight later.
- 18:27Speaker 2: So could you imagine if they milk kiper broke it down?
- 18:32Speaker 4: I think we should.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Yeah, John Hancock, great mota.
- 18:36Speaker 5: To to to. You know what, I wouldn't put it
- 18:40Speaker 5: past them because this time of the year, they are
- 18:42Speaker 5: looking for anything. Because if they can't talk football, no
- 18:46Speaker 5: one knows.
- 18:46Speaker 3: What to do.
- 18:47Speaker 2: Benjamin Franklin, inventor of the Bye Vocal Dogle electricity find
- 18:52Speaker 2: a kite.
- 18:54Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I see why Ben Franklin would win
- 18:56Speaker 5: in your book Lost Turkeys.
- 18:58Speaker 1: I do h a right, actually think I think he
- 19:01Speaker 1: likes turkey as turkey as Yes, all right, well, thanks
- 19:05Speaker 1: to Jonathan. We appreciate a lot of good information there.
- 19:07Speaker 1: And Mariners picked twenty fourth in the draft. Sounds like
- 19:11Speaker 1: that's not that bad of a position to be in.
- 19:14Speaker 1: If the guy at twenty four is equivalent to the
- 19:17Speaker 1: guy at ten, you know, the Mariners are probably going
- 19:19Speaker 1: to get somebody that they value a lot higher than
- 19:21Speaker 1: twenty fourth. Yes, that's what that says to me. And
- 19:25Speaker 1: they have been I mean, I know they're not great
- 19:28Speaker 1: at everything in the Depoto era, even though I like
- 19:31Speaker 1: this group a lot more than a lot of other
- 19:33Speaker 1: people do. But this is one area where it is
- 19:37Speaker 1: indisputable they are outstanding at something that no one has
- 19:40Speaker 1: ever been outstanding at. Yeah, that is nailing their first picks,
- 19:44Speaker 1: nailing the draft. And so I'm looking forward to seeing
- 19:46Speaker 1: what Scott Hunter and the company do on Saturday and Sunday.
- 19:50Speaker 2: All right. Coming up next a brand new feature introducing
- 19:53Speaker 2: it to the for the first time. Ashley doesn't even
- 19:56Speaker 2: know what's coming. We call it the Depth Chart. Sports
- 19:59Speaker 2: Radio ninety three points three kJ r f M. Oh,
- 20:05Speaker 2: not for sure. You're gonna go with Adele.
- 20:07Speaker 4: Here rolling in the deep.
- 20:09Speaker 5: Yeah, I actually just thought about it, but I didn't
- 20:11Speaker 5: think about it till too late.
- 20:12Speaker 2: Yeah, or if we're going to do the depth chart, Yeah,
- 20:15Speaker 2: I think it's gonna stick.
- 20:17Speaker 5: But also considering I didn't really know, Like I see
- 20:20Speaker 5: it says it there, but I didn't know if that's
- 20:21Speaker 5: really they're out.
- 20:22Speaker 4: Like I because it is new to me.
- 20:24Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the depth Chart.
- 20:25Speaker 1: It's a brand new feature right here on Chuck and
- 20:27Speaker 1: Buck in the Morning, Sports Radio ninety three point three
- 20:29Speaker 1: kJ r f M.
- 20:30Speaker 2: And even though this is his debut, word is everybody
- 20:33Speaker 2: loves it?
- 20:35Speaker 4: Is that the word?
- 20:36Speaker 2: Yeah? Okay, that's the word. So the idea behind this is,
- 20:39Speaker 2: and I kind of got this idea when.
- 20:41Speaker 1: We were talking yesterday about the Seahawks running back position,
- 20:45Speaker 1: that we make our own depth charts, but not necessarily
- 20:48Speaker 1: about just things like the Seahawks running back position, maybe
- 20:52Speaker 1: a lot of different things. So we're gonna start with
- 20:55Speaker 1: the Seahawks running back position, though just to sort of
- 20:58Speaker 1: get the feel of what the depth charts segmen is
- 21:00Speaker 1: going to be all about. So I want you to
- 21:03Speaker 1: make the Seahawks running back depth chart, Ashley. Right now,
- 21:08Speaker 1: our lads and ESPN both say, as I called up
- 21:13Speaker 1: various depth charts, that our opening day depth chart is
- 21:17Speaker 1: Zach Sharbonay as our first stringer. They're buying the height
- 21:23Speaker 1: that he's going to be ready by opening day. Jadarian
- 21:26Speaker 1: Price second stringer, George Halani third stringer, Emmanuel Wilson fourth stringer.
- 21:31Speaker 1: That's what they are going with. So we are also
- 21:36Speaker 1: unpacked yesterday the story that right now George Hallani's ahead
- 21:39Speaker 1: of Jadarian Price.
- 21:41Speaker 4: Which was mind blowing on.
- 21:42Speaker 2: The running back depth chart.
- 21:44Speaker 1: So opening day running back for the Seattle Seahawks depth chart,
- 21:49Speaker 1: who is your starter do you think on opening day
- 21:52Speaker 1: for the Hawks?
- 21:52Speaker 5: I gotta go with Jadarian Price as number one, followed
- 21:56Speaker 5: by George Halani followed by Emmanuel Wilson.
- 21:59Speaker 4: Because I don't think Zach Charbonay is going to be ready.
- 22:01Speaker 2: I'm with you too.
- 22:02Speaker 1: I think he's going to be ready a lot sooner
- 22:04Speaker 1: than we thought when he went down. I think maybe
- 22:07Speaker 1: we're going to get him in the first quarter of
- 22:10Speaker 1: the season. Certainly by halfway through the season.
- 22:14Speaker 4: I think Game four he'll be in.
- 22:16Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, but man and I don't rule
- 22:19Speaker 2: it out.
- 22:20Speaker 1: I mean, if he's already this far ahead of schedule,
- 22:22Speaker 1: the coaching stat's not ruling it out. I mean, if
- 22:25Speaker 1: he was a Mariner, they wouldn't tell us anything about.
- 22:27Speaker 4: It, right, Yeah, he just disappeared.
- 22:29Speaker 1: Yeah, we just we might not ever see him again.
- 22:32Speaker 1: But I would say I'm going to disagree a little bit.
- 22:37Speaker 1: I would not be surprised at all if George Allani
- 22:40Speaker 1: doesn't start opening day as our running back and then
- 22:44Speaker 1: doesn't get as many carries on opening day as Jadarian
- 22:47Speaker 1: Price Price, it turns out, historically doesn't have a problem
- 22:51Speaker 1: being a backup. We'd on the street, So I think
- 22:54Speaker 1: they might give him a little bit of crumbs anounce
- 22:57Speaker 1: him in the starting lineup. George let him have the
- 23:00Speaker 1: first drive. But I think before the game's over that
- 23:04Speaker 1: Jadarian will end up more carries even on an opening
- 23:07Speaker 1: day than George Halani. But I wouldn't be surprised if
- 23:10Speaker 1: it's Halani, Price, Wilson, and Sharbonnay.
- 23:14Speaker 2: Not even available.
- 23:15Speaker 4: Yeah, that one surprised me.
- 23:16Speaker 5: Either, and I especially, you know, it is hard to
- 23:18Speaker 5: name a rookie as your number one, and a rookie
- 23:21Speaker 5: that doesn't hasn't had that much experience in gaming in general.
- 23:23Speaker 1: Yeah, football go, I mean, coaches like to do this
- 23:26Speaker 1: sort of thing. We're not just going to hand it
- 23:27Speaker 1: to you, even though we're handing it to you right, Oh,
- 23:30Speaker 1: We're just not gonna do that for you, all right.
- 23:33Speaker 1: Next one depth chart the goat of team sports. Because
- 23:37Speaker 1: of what Messi's doing right now, it seems to be
- 23:41Speaker 1: a pretty big conversation. Is he the greatest of all
- 23:43Speaker 1: time in team sports?
- 23:45Speaker 2: I know this is a debate, but just for time reasons,
- 23:50Speaker 2: time constraints, I'm gonna give you four.
- 23:52Speaker 1: Give me your depth chart, Messi, Gretzky, Jordan, Brady. Those
- 23:58Speaker 1: are your four. And the conversation today for the greatest
- 24:02Speaker 1: of all time and team sports?
- 24:04Speaker 2: Who's your starter?
- 24:05Speaker 5: Well, and I feel bad because I'm already gonna tell
- 24:07Speaker 5: you my soccer bias is not gonna allow me to
- 24:09Speaker 5: put Messy anywhere but fourth, and so I'm.
- 24:13Speaker 4: Going to go Brady, Jordan Gretzky, Messy. Maybe I would sat.
- 24:20Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we're pretty close. I'm still gonna go Jordan, Yeah,
- 24:28Speaker 1: Brady Gretzky messy.
- 24:31Speaker 2: Yeah, but I admit as well.
- 24:34Speaker 1: It might be because soccer wouldn't even be in my
- 24:38Speaker 1: top ten sports.
- 24:39Speaker 5: Well, and I don't and yeah, I just don't pay
- 24:41Speaker 5: enough to I don't know how many championships he's won
- 24:43Speaker 5: and all the things he's done on all the different
- 24:45Speaker 5: leagues he's played in and for you, okay, some.
- 24:48Speaker 4: Yes, okay, see, so maybe I should move him up.
- 24:51Speaker 4: I did not know he'd won some yes, yeah, okay.
- 24:54Speaker 2: He's also been an MVP hype trophy guy.
- 25:00Speaker 5: In certain leagues where there are trophies. The official numbers
- 25:05Speaker 5: some okay, so I might have to reconsider, all right.
- 25:09Speaker 1: Next one depth chart Here the Mariners pitching rotation plan
- 25:16Speaker 1: going forward. So no individual players, but rank the plans
- 25:20Speaker 1: on your depth chart. Classic piggyback coming out of the
- 25:24Speaker 1: All Star break. How about the wu Castillo home road
- 25:28Speaker 1: piggyback suggestion that we've made on this show. Six man
- 25:34Speaker 1: rotation or classic five man rotation? Who's the starter for you?
- 25:38Speaker 1: Of those four to start the second half of the season.
- 25:42Speaker 5: I'm gonna go classic five man rotation is the starter, Okay,
- 25:45Speaker 5: but I'm gonna go the wu Castillo home and away
- 25:48Speaker 5: Piggyback as number two.
- 25:50Speaker 2: Really, yes, Oh that's a little bit of an upset yep.
- 25:53Speaker 5: I would then go, I just I would I then
- 25:58Speaker 5: go to Piggyback as an three and six man is
- 26:01Speaker 5: number four, you know, like in.
- 26:02Speaker 2: The six man. No, I don't know, now that you
- 26:04Speaker 2: say it, I kind of with you. I think I might.
- 26:07Speaker 1: When you first said it, I'm like, there's no way
- 26:09Speaker 1: I'm gonna make that too, And now like I think
- 26:11Speaker 1: I'm gonna make that too.
- 26:12Speaker 4: It's better than the other two options.
- 26:14Speaker 1: I mean, I'm pretty pretty all the way sold on
- 26:18Speaker 1: it has to be a five man rotation at this point,
- 26:20Speaker 1: with Castillo on the outside looking and so one is
- 26:23Speaker 1: way ahead of two for me right now. But I'm
- 26:26Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna go with you now that I
- 26:28Speaker 1: start looking at my options here, I'm not that I
- 26:33Speaker 1: know it seems outlandish, yeah, but why not?
- 26:37Speaker 4: Like it doesn't seem anymore outlanders than the normal piggy back.
- 26:40Speaker 2: That's true.
- 26:41Speaker 1: Like, wo is my one and six starter coming out
- 26:44Speaker 1: of the break because we're at home for six days,
- 26:47Speaker 1: and then skip them on the road. Yeah, and let
- 26:50Speaker 1: Castillo start on the road, and the other one piggybacks.
- 26:53Speaker 1: Yeah on the backside then classic piggyback. And I don't
- 26:58Speaker 1: want the six man rotation, and I'll just be blunt
- 27:01Speaker 1: about it. I don't think Dan can manage a bullpen,
- 27:03Speaker 1: and a six man rotation hurts that abilities even more.
- 27:08Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why it's at the end.
- 27:09Speaker 5: I'll take any of those other three options over sticking
- 27:12Speaker 5: with a six man rotation, all right.
- 27:13Speaker 2: Last one on the depth start, are mean liking the.
- 27:15Speaker 4: Depri I like it so far?
- 27:16Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 27:17Speaker 4: Are they liking it over there?
- 27:18Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 27:19Speaker 4: Let's find out.
- 27:20Speaker 1: Finally, summer movie blockbusters, the one you're most excited to
- 27:28Speaker 1: see this summer, like if you had to pay tickets
- 27:31Speaker 1: for rank them in order. Disclosure Day, which is already out, okay,
- 27:36Speaker 1: The Odyssey, which is coming out in a week from now,
- 27:41Speaker 1: Devil Wears Prada two, the long anticipated, and Toy Story five. Okay,
- 27:49Speaker 1: you know, just to give you a nice variety here.
- 27:51Speaker 1: So what's your depth chart on the twenty twenty six
- 27:55Speaker 1: summer blockbusters hitting movie theaters?
- 27:58Speaker 2: Who's your starter?
- 27:59Speaker 5: Devilwar's I've been very excited for it. I think it's
- 28:01Speaker 5: actually out in theaters. But I don't very I don't
- 28:03Speaker 5: go to theaters, so I'm excited for it in my
- 28:05Speaker 5: home theater.
- 28:07Speaker 4: That's number one.
- 28:07Speaker 5: Then the Odyssey, because that's all I hear everyone talking about,
- 28:11Speaker 5: so I gotta at least check it out.
- 28:13Speaker 4: I've never seen a Toy Story movie yet. Oh really, Yeah,
- 28:17Speaker 4: so i'd.
- 28:17Speaker 2: Probably have to watch I've only seen the first one.
- 28:19Speaker 5: Okay, well, i'd probably have to watch the first four
- 28:21Speaker 5: before I watched five.
- 28:22Speaker 4: But sure, I don't think there's a I don't think
- 28:25Speaker 4: it's like, it's not cumulative.
- 28:27Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think that you had to know the background.
- 28:30Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 28:30Speaker 2: Maybe maybe you do.
- 28:31Speaker 4: I need to know what what he's been up to
- 28:33Speaker 4: for the first four. See, at least I know that character.
- 28:35Speaker 1: I don't know there's much like a cliffhanger, like, Okay,
- 28:38Speaker 1: I don't think it's a trilogy or whatever, a five
- 28:41Speaker 1: five ology, five ology, So I don't.
- 28:44Speaker 2: Think that's a requirement. I think you could go to
- 28:47Speaker 2: Toy Story five and.
- 28:48Speaker 4: And still be okay, all right, so we'll put that
- 28:50Speaker 4: at three. And I don't know what Disclosure Day is.
- 28:52Speaker 2: Oh, that's the one where it's a the Spielberg one.
- 28:55Speaker 2: It's already out.
- 28:56Speaker 1: Okay, And that's where he's basically saying what it's gonna
- 29:00Speaker 1: to be like when we actually do announce to the
- 29:02Speaker 1: world we do know aliens exist.
- 29:04Speaker 4: Oh all right, yeah, I'll put it at four.
- 29:06Speaker 2: I'm being intrigued by it, but you put it a four.
- 29:08Speaker 1: Yeah, the Boby of your depth charts is not even
- 29:10Speaker 1: gonna get any playing time, but at least it's on
- 29:11Speaker 1: my chart. It's gonna need three injuries. What he's gonna
- 29:14Speaker 1: have to break a leg in order for it to
- 29:16Speaker 1: even see the field.
- 29:17Speaker 4: It'll be a weekend.
- 29:18Speaker 5: We've watched all our shows. What should we watch? Oh yeah,
- 29:21Speaker 5: let's check out this disclosure.
- 29:22Speaker 1: We have to have a blowout for the disclosure day
- 29:24Speaker 1: to get any playing time, all the other crap.
- 29:27Speaker 4: And then we're like, oh, what are we gonna do.
- 29:29Speaker 4: It's it's a rainy summer night.
- 29:30Speaker 2: That's weird, all right.
- 29:31Speaker 1: My starter would be The Odyssey. Yeah, and I don't
- 29:35Speaker 1: go to a lot of movies anymore either, but that's
- 29:37Speaker 1: one I'm making sure I go to in the theaters,
- 29:40Speaker 1: and I have a great theater right.
- 29:42Speaker 4: Next to Yeah, that theater in one it feels nice.
- 29:44Speaker 1: Yeah, And then number two I'm gonna go Disclosure Day,
- 29:50Speaker 1: Like even though I haven't gone. I mean, if I
- 29:52Speaker 1: really wanted to see it, you'd think i'd be there. Yeah,
- 29:54Speaker 1: I would have thought, and I have considered it about
- 29:57Speaker 1: thirteen days in.
- 29:58Speaker 2: A row going and I just haven't gone. Haven't bit
- 30:01Speaker 2: the bullet.
- 30:02Speaker 1: I knew want to see Devil Wears product too, because
- 30:05Speaker 1: I think Meryl Streep's legendary, and I like Hathaway and
- 30:08Speaker 1: I like Blunt.
- 30:09Speaker 4: Yeah, the first one was great.
- 30:11Speaker 1: Yeah it's pretty good. Yeah, pretty good, And I would
- 30:13Speaker 1: imagine it's pretty good. And by the way, I never
- 30:16Speaker 1: really was that attracted to Anne Hathaway, and now I
- 30:18Speaker 1: am like, how is she getting better looking?
- 30:21Speaker 2: The older show?
- 30:22Speaker 5: She's just because now she's she looked too mature for
- 30:25Speaker 5: her age before and now I think she looks her age.
- 30:29Speaker 1: She's like drop dead gorgeous now And I never even
- 30:35Speaker 1: I just thought like she's cute, yeah, And now all
- 30:37Speaker 1: of a sudden, I'm like, is there a more beautiful
- 30:39Speaker 1: woman in Hollywood right now than Anne Hathaway?
- 30:41Speaker 4: Maybe not?
- 30:42Speaker 2: What on earth has happened?
- 30:43Speaker 4: What an earth is half a name? I think she
- 30:45Speaker 4: sold her soul to the devil who's wearing product.
- 30:48Speaker 1: And then toy story. I'm gonna put it last, and
- 30:51Speaker 1: I'm sure it's very good. I'm sure it's very entertaining.
- 30:53Speaker 1: But am I really going to go to a movie
- 30:55Speaker 1: theater to watch a cartoon?
- 30:56Speaker 4: Probably not? Not by yourself. People might look at you.
- 30:59Speaker 1: Well, yes, that's for sure. Do you do know that
- 31:02Speaker 1: this is a really embarrassing thing I'm going to admit
- 31:04Speaker 1: for everybody. But I did go to Shrek too and
- 31:06Speaker 1: made out with a girl at Shrek two.
- 31:08Speaker 4: Wow.
- 31:09Speaker 1: Yeah, that was not a good decision. In the moment,
- 31:11Speaker 1: it felt right, it felt really good. Okay, Yeah, as.
- 31:16Speaker 2: I was driving away, probably pretty awful.
- 31:21Speaker 4: There were a lot of children around us.
- 31:24Speaker 1: Terrible, just terrible. I mean, it's like one of the
- 31:26Speaker 1: three things I regret the most in my life.
- 31:29Speaker 4: Eliminate one of the others. Yes, okay, yes, yet too.
- 31:33Speaker 2: Yeah, there's like three things right there. I won't mention
- 31:37Speaker 2: the third.
- 31:38Speaker 4: Was it losing in the state tournament?
- 31:41Speaker 3: No?
- 31:41Speaker 1: No, no, it doesn't even hold a candle? All right,

- 33:11Speaker 1: Uh?
- 33:13Speaker 2: It was probably right around the third grade.
- 33:17Speaker 4: Okay.
- 33:17Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, pretty much been this way my whole life
- 33:20Speaker 2: for you. Yeah, pretty much haven't known another way to be.
- 33:23Speaker 4: Wow, that's pretty good. I'm jealous. I'm jealous.
- 33:28Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 33:28Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty just just kind of take it for granted, now,
- 33:31Speaker 2: you know what I mean.
- 33:32Speaker 4: Yeah, people you don't even think about it. Other handsome
- 33:34Speaker 4: people know what I'm talking, walk around being good looking.
- 33:37Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, sometimes you forget. Sometimes you're like in the
- 33:40Speaker 1: grocery store and you're, you know, checking out some fiber. Uh,
- 33:43Speaker 1: And then the next thing you're like, oh man, are
- 33:45Speaker 1: people staring at me again?
- 33:47Speaker 2: Why?
- 33:47Speaker 1: Oh?
- 33:49Speaker 2: Oh I remember? Yeah, that whole d D thing's got
- 33:55Speaker 2: to be hard, that whole drop dead handsome things saddled
- 33:59Speaker 2: with for years. Yeah, yeah, it's thanks for asking.
- 34:03Speaker 5: From the four two to five stub Chuck, what about
- 34:05Speaker 5: what about a trade for Chapman and Contreras and the
- 34:08Speaker 5: cost or Ward from Baltimore.
- 34:13Speaker 2: I keep hearing Ward. I don't love Ward.
- 34:18Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I love the idea of Contreras and Chapman,
- 34:21Speaker 1: but again, now you're putting.
- 34:22Speaker 2: On two headaches to your roster.
- 34:25Speaker 1: Chapman, you'd only rent to the end of the season,
- 34:27Speaker 1: and that's where Cubs won a World championship doing.
- 34:29Speaker 2: It that way.
- 34:30Speaker 1: And he's still pretty close to the top of his game.
- 34:33Speaker 1: He's been scuffling a little bit as of late.
- 34:35Speaker 2: I mean, that's a big, big move and a big
- 34:37Speaker 2: big ad.
- 34:38Speaker 1: I think speculating about it is probably a waste of
- 34:42Speaker 1: our time because I don't think that John's adding thirty
- 34:45Speaker 1: three million dollars to his payroll overnight.
- 34:47Speaker 4: Probably not.
- 34:50Speaker 2: Maybe one of the other. And yet my guess is.
- 34:53Speaker 1: I doubt either one of them, and I seriously doubt
- 34:58Speaker 1: both of them. As a matter of fact, I'm just
- 34:59Speaker 1: gonna put the kai bosh on that. I don't even
- 35:01Speaker 1: think it's a possibility. But would they make us better
- 35:06Speaker 1: as a team, for sure? You know, you add those
- 35:08Speaker 1: two veteran guys to your team, it kind of solves
- 35:11Speaker 1: both of your concerns. Right, We're maybe a bullpen arms short.
- 35:15Speaker 1: Even though I don't think we are and certainly short
- 35:20Speaker 1: a guy that hits lefties, and Contrera's hits both lefties
- 35:24Speaker 1: and Righty's.
- 35:24Speaker 4: All right, well we could use that.
- 35:27Speaker 5: Okay, this is gonna be our last one, probably just
- 35:29Speaker 5: timing wise, but sup, Chuck, this is from Marcus. Do
- 35:32Speaker 5: you think the Angels would do Trout a solid and
- 35:34Speaker 5: trade him here for basically nothing, just to let him
- 35:36Speaker 5: get a ring before he retires. I'd play him in
- 35:38Speaker 5: right field over Roe Blaze.
- 35:40Speaker 1: Oh, he definitely gets a spot in the lineup. He
- 35:43Speaker 1: just got activated last night, so he's going to play
- 35:47Speaker 1: in the All Star Game. He had a mission because
- 35:49Speaker 1: it's in Philadelphia, and he got named the All Star Game,
- 35:51Speaker 1: so he's going to play in the All Star Game.
- 35:53Speaker 1: It looks like, yeah, i'd add him. That's Jerry Depoto's
- 35:58Speaker 1: favorite player of all time, Mike Trout, so you know
- 36:02Speaker 1: he'd want to add him. But you're right, that would
- 36:06Speaker 1: have to be a situation in which the Angels are
- 36:09Speaker 1: eating most of the money, if not all of the money,
- 36:13Speaker 1: in exchange for a better prospect package. You give us
- 36:18Speaker 1: the player, you eat all the money that you overspent
- 36:21Speaker 1: on him, and then we give you really good prospects,
- 36:24Speaker 1: and it's what the Angel should do.
- 36:26Speaker 2: But it's what the Angel should have done three years.
- 36:28Speaker 4: Yeah, I was going to say they were overdue for that.
- 36:29Speaker 1: It's what the Angel should have done with Showe Aotani.
- 36:32Speaker 1: And then they just let him hit free agency without
- 36:34Speaker 1: even making the playoffs and lost him for nothing.
- 36:37Speaker 5: The Dodgers are their fault to the Dodgers, Dodgers are
- 36:40Speaker 5: the Angel's fault.
- 36:42Speaker 1: So I don't think they're going to move him, and
- 36:46Speaker 1: I certainly don't think that they're going to eat salary
- 36:48Speaker 1: to move him. I mean, I think they just came
- 36:50Speaker 1: out this week and said, no, we're not moving him.
- 36:51Speaker 1: Oh okay, So the Angels are give him this. They
- 36:54Speaker 1: are convicted to running their organization horribly. They got conviction
- 36:59Speaker 1: by behind it. They are really really committed. They're dead
- 37:03Speaker 1: set on doing it to being ignorant. Good for them,
- 37:06Speaker 1: all right, thank you for the calls, the questions, those
- 37:09Speaker 1: are great. I'm coming up next. The comedian of our dreams,
- 37:13Speaker 1: Dustin Nickerson's going to join us. It's been a while
- 37:16Speaker 1: since we chatted with him, and I just know he's
- 37:19Speaker 1: loving every.
- 37:20Speaker 2: Bit of this.
