• 0:21
  Speaker 2: What do we think is going to happen player wise
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: in terms of who's going to perform well and entertainment
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: wise in terms of how this is going to look?
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: And hey, Jeff Passim was on our show the other
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: day and apparently, like I saw, you know, I get
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: all the social media pop ups from him and Ken
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: and all the guys, and he's he thinks it's going
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: to be terrible.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: Jeff pass things.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like he's getting some some noise right now because
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: she's He says it's gonna stink. That's what the headline says.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: I get to see it because I've been running around.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: I'm sure he explained.
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: Really, I just think you pig, you said, because now
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: they can take pitches right to get twenty swings.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: They can just take I'm an is there a rule
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: on how many pitches you can take? So that to me,
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: that's where The first problem is so you can take
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: ten pitches and then swing ten pitches and then swing.
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: Are you sure nobody's nobody's taking No. I mean I've
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: never read anything about you can't take. You can't like
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: there's a limit to the takes.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: There should be a limit to takes.
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: Forty pitches, that's where it's takes so long swins, that's
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: where you get twenty swings.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Okay, but it's a homer that's one swing. Theres gon
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: never be a limit on takes. And I'll tell you why. Okay,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: we've been doing a timer for years. Right, you need
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: to swing.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: You take on, dudes, aren't The problem dudes that are
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: in this are not the most egregious that you're gonna
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: see is somebody that has the plan like Sammy Sosa
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: dude where auto take one. I call it the travel
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: ball showcase take where it's like you're.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Just like.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: That was nothing. But for some reason, that's gonna be
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: the routine.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: It clicks you.
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: And there's not gonna be dudes that are like I
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: gotta see five, I gotta see. No, we're not, We're
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: not gonna see that. I think it's gonna be a positive.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: I really do, And I disagree whatever Passing said, I disagree.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: I think it's gonna be great because one Citizens Bank
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: has a lot of targets that can be hit.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Like we're gonna see where a five hundred foot.
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: Home run lands. It's not just gonna like land in
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: the abyss of a bullpen or something, and.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Then was the lion stadcast to tell you where it went?
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: We cast is gonna be wrong, right.
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: That's why I'm not clicking on any of those bets
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: for my for my bet, because they're gonna they're gonna
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: manipulate it the way they manipulated Brent Rooker not being
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: but two. I think being able to experience each ball
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: that's hit out of the ballpark is gonna be engaging.
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: But for how long I don't know. Okay, I don't
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: think twenty pitches is gonna be that much. I mean,
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: twenty swings is gonna be that much?
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: Oh, I just tobe it didn't take forever. That's my
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: only That's the biggest complaint when you ask people, wow,
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: does it takes three?
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: Well?
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Oh even with the timer, yeah, well, it.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: Definitely took too on before the timer and the timer
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: improved that. But then they complained to guys were taking
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: too many swings and it too short of a time. Well,
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: that's why guys are getting tired.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't follow the ball if there's so many
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: balls flying at the same time.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: Because then it just became it just became video half
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: the flight and video of them swinging, because they were
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: always coming back to the swing, always come back to
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: the swing, and I think that was It wasn't what
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: I grew up watching a home run derby, and I
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: think this version is a much better version than somebody
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: just going out and hitting thirteen in a row and
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: they still only have one out, because then you're like, uh,
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: now you hit thirteen in a row, that's gonna be incredible.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: There's electricity when guys start hitting a bunch in a row,
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: but he's over halfway done.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: Then he's only got seven more swings.
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: I think there should do something like worth you get
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: if you get a chain going, like a street going,
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: they're worth more, all right?
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: Video game style, Yeah, like.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: The first ones was one and then if you in
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: other wands were two and then three and like come
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: pounds well at the.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: End and yeah, points you don't finish until you no
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: But I think you should be able to if you
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: hit four or five six in a row, it should
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: be worth more points and incentivizes stand.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: I'll double up on what you're saying. It has to
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: be pitches, not swings in a row.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: But then it all comes down to the picture.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: But it did come down to the pitcher for a while,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: just now where you have to lay it up in
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: a good spot because any pitch that's not in the
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: right spot is hurting.
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: You on the timer.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know it's not supposed to be about that,
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: but I just I want someone that knows what they're
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: doing on the mouth. This is our time. You're getting
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: our time for two and a half hours, and I
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: want to see dingers. I don't want to see takes.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: Here's what I like about AJS. I think that puts intrigued.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: Like before, I don't know if people know it. There
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: used to be a bonus for you hitting it over
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: four hundred and fifty feet. We had no idea witch
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: ball was over four and fifty feet. It was like, oh,
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: the stars open, okay, great, so he hit one over
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: four fifty. Now we're gonna be able to see that.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: And I think what aj said, it kind of adds
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: that like he's on fire, NBA jam type of like
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: video games stuff where it's like if he hits another
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: one here the fans right around the four to five
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: in a row, the fans start getting amped up, and
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: then so like right in there, maybe three to four,
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: you'd be able to engage the fans. You're third one
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: in a row, you get an extra point. Fourth one
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: is worth three fifth one.
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: I like it.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Big second half of the season coming up, there might
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: be a hot ticket, a rivalry series, a sold out
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: experience they need to get your hands on, and seakeek
• 5:45

  Speaker 2: but like give me everything else?
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Size up?
• 6:45
  Speaker 6: Who should be good? Might Cao Cammon? Arrow is good?
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: Brice loves to put on a show. I think who's
• 6:53
  Speaker 6: a sneaky one? Who's the sneaky one for you? That
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: people are like, I have no idea? Should hit the
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: ball that far?
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: And who the jazz the jazz award? What do you
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: don't want to give that out?
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: Well you can give it out. It's okay, it's this
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: is analysis. Hey, there's one guy they're all good. They
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: all hit home lowest.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: Lowest average launch angle of any of all his home
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: runs of anybody in the in the.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: And that's fine. Jordan Walker line drive guys struggle more now.
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: Jordan Walker, to me is a guy that could struggle
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: with this because until this year he hit so many
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: balls in the ground.
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: He has made an adjustment.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: But to me, it's Harper's done it, Schrever's done it,
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: Cameron Arrow's done it. Mark Commie, I'm sure has done
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: one of these in Japan before. To me, it's the
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: young guys that you, guys that usually the first time
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: have a little bit of a hard time.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: You want launch angle though, right like you want you.
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: I want big guys, and I want launch angle.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: So for two things.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: One maybe it mattered more in the past, but now
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: it's you're not on a clock, so like, get that
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: real lofty swing one and the baseball's juiced, so it's
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: gonna go a little more.
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: That's what That's what I can't wait for, just to
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: just playing here. I don't know how much you played here.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: You know you were in the other league, so until
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: you may, until you played for the Braids, you probably
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: didn't play. But I just love watching and because remembering
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: where dudes hit home runs, like I think it was
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: in Sports Illustrated Barry Bonds hit the th HP sign
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: that was on the like third deck one time when
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: he was here as a visitor. So I want to
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: see if dudes can get to that spot.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: I want to bet. But I love the distance. I
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: love seeing how far these balls go.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: And I think I think Tags is going to hit
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: the ball farther than people expect. You got a big guy,
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: you also want a guy got that can hit, not
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: just pull home those. Yeah, you just need a guy
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: that can run, like like Cagle can get a ball
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: out and still go to left right here, Yes of
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: that to me, I think left. He's having advantage here
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: because I think it's a short reports right and if
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: you are strong enough to still go to the left, uh, which.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: Kagliam can do. But it ends up happening every year.
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: It's not who you expect to win that wins most
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: of the time, so I mean other than one obviously
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: Judge one or stan Juona.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: Most of the time it's like.
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: Oh, this guy's gonna win. Oh wait, this guy got
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: hot as fire and he made it me. I it's
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: never I think this park is so tiny. We're talking
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: to Todd on Friday and he did it in great
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: American small park. Philly is very close. There's a little
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: bit of there's a little bit of excitement in Monty's
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: corner and left center, but that's really like center field,
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: just left of center.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: But even that's still short because of jets in like,
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: we're gonna see some I think Swarver is gonna hit
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: the farthest one.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Do you see the odds from bed m jam there
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: Sber they think's going to win. Schwarber at plus three hundred,
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: and for the podcast crowd, I just want to read him.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Junior Cameronaro plus four twenty five, Murk Comi plus four
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: seventy five, Jack cag plus six fifty, Jordan Walker plus
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: eight hundred, Ben Rice plus eight fifty. They've got Bryce
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: down at plus eight fifty, and then Contrere's plus fifteen hundred.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: They basically are like no chance.
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: But Junior Camerinero was a plus eleven hundred last year
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: and he got second place. Yeah, I know it's this
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: is the winning board, but what to me, I mean,
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: Schwarber's lines moved. Schwarber was at like plus one seventy.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Five alming back.
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: So his move and Harper's and Harper's Harper's is to me,
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: that's the value if we're ting, if we're talking about value. Yeah,
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: I don't unless there's something with the whole Dino evil thing,
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: like maybe they think a he hasn't had him throw
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: to him yet, but Schwarber probably topped him up.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: So the place for the enemy, So maybe he's gonna
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: rig it now I'm kidding, but no.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: He's gonna want to wear him out.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, we should take more swings. You know what,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: by earlier we should have asked, oh, do you know
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: what's here? He was right around here before he went on.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: He walked by.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: He's throwing Harper by the way for the crowd. That
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: doesn't he thrown justin Harper?
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah you don't.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: What do you mean who's doing I wonder who's throw
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: that throw to more than one?
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: No? Yes, I don't know about this year.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: It was like the VP for ur just through. This
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: is before it became cool to.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: You bring your own guy. Yeah, they don't. They haven't
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: done that recently, haven't they.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: I feel like it's like part of your thing is like,
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: oh man, you know, like here's cal Rock and throwing
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: to him. It's you know, I feel like it's his
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: uncles Coast Rice and I'm trying his dad.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, his favorite his favorite YouTube TV show host Hey
• 11:49

• 11:53
  Speaker 3: You're dude.

  Speaker 3: Would you be ready to throw tonight in the Derby
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: to Wilson Traps. Yeah, I could do.
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: I need about ten throws to get my all the
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: scar tissue in my shoulder to break up.

  Speaker 1: But I mean, here's one.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: Bob Nightingale thrown his Sunday notes out there and saying,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: Schoogle has informed friends he badly wants to stay in
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Detroit for the rest of the season in a zero
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: appetite to be traded.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, theah, but.
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: Also does anybody really want to be traded in the
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: last year of their contract one organization?
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Many do. Many do want to be traded because they
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: qualifying offer away. So that's the whole thing.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but still, I mean, he's been there his whole life.
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: They've come close to making the World Series before he
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: doesn't come. He comes across as someone that's intensely loyal,
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: especially the Tigers.
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: This does not surprise me.
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: But also at the end of the day, he has
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: no saying order they Scott Harris comes home and says, Hey, Terror,
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: guess what we can get all of Whoever's farm system
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: for you. It's a great round, buddy, thank you.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: That's and why it's important to have things in your contract.
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: I loved hearing it.
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: But when when I first read that, like I was thinking,
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: I'm like, I don't think there's an angle to it.
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: I think he really likes Detroit. I think he's connected
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: with Detroit. I think he also has lived out his
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: entire contract. He's been drafted with Detroit. Where you know what,
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: at the beginning, it didn't look like it was gonna
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: be what we know of Tarrek Scruble.
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: Now it was injuries. He was a later pick.
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: They took a not a flyer because he's you know,
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: a cy Young winner, two time Sight Young Winner, but
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: it took a flyer on him out of a no
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: name college.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Yep, it's home.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: Let's talk first half surprises, most surprising situation brewing in
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: the first half of the season. Let's make it a
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: little more current too, like what is transpired over the
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: past couple of weeks heading into the break that makes
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: you go, oh, okay, that changes the way I'm talking
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: about this team.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Red Sox are on fire suddenly. That's a good example.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: Sacramento the other way, the other way, losing nine in
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: a row going into the break, getting swept by the
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: White Sox.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Uh, season over.
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: Season's over.
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: They're what fourteen or fifteen games under five hundred the
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: Red Sox he mentioned.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: We sent seasons over for well, I don't know if
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: we said it.
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: I don't make it still that harshly for Boston because
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: of where they are. Yeah, and you know, he still
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: had Sunny Gray and they still have They have some
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: some pitching obviously that's great, but Oakland and oaklandness. So
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: I'll never not I saw, I'll never not call them Oakland.
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: It's like impossible, even when they are in Vegas he Athletics.
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: To me, this was supposed to be the year where
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: they really were supposed to contend and they have just
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: I know injuries have hit them, but they can't pitch
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: at all, and they're they're a team like this with
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: Langeliers and I know Kurtz is out, but maybe they
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: fired their pitching coach or tried all this stuff.
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: They're fourteen games.
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: Was at fourteen or fourteen games under five hundred, forty
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: one and fifty five.
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: They were first plumps like three months ago. That was
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: a collapse. Yeah, crazy, It's crazy in Boston. On the
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: other way, they had a late flight, not the most
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: recent late flight. They had a late flight.
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: They were coming home a place that before that everyone
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: was like, even their players were like, there's a lot
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: of distractions here. They had a terrible home record. Yankees
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: came in for four, swept them out of town. Switzler
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: was that first one schliller. The Yankees gave them that
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: game because amed Rosario and then Durban humped ing right
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: over the right over the monster and then like they
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: have just rolled to win nine straight going into the break.
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: I know what it's like to lose five straight going
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: into the break, and that sucks. When you're in a
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: race to win nine straight. You don't want the you
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: don't want the break to come because everything they're doing.
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: They got in at whatever five o'clock into the stadium
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: for a seven o'clock game, and they went out and
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: beat the Mets. It's a Mets, but they went out
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: and beat them. They took care of business and then
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: they ended up finishing out the series for three straight
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: series sweeps.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: What's going right? They're just figuring out ways to win games.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: I think they're I think they're I think they're lying more.
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: It's still.
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: Suspect in the sense that who is going to be
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: the guy that's gonna carry it is Jared Durance this series.
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: They just show up the Mets. Jared Durant's first hit
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: was his last step out of the series.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: Monastery.
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: Here's here's what they do they could totally has been great.
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: Sonny Gray has been incredible.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: The other big lefty they have, Benet, has been ridiculously good.
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: Their pitching has been what's been so good? But JamMan
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: at the back end and the whitlock and the rest
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: of those guys in there in the bro pen, and
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: the way their starters have been going.
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: That's what's been for me.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: You can say their offense isn't that great, but they
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: pitched their asses off on this team.
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: That's the thing.
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: No, I don't say we've ever questioned. We're talking about
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: what's different. We never questioned that they didn't have good pitching.
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: That's why they didn't fire any of the pitching. When
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: they fired all those guys early in the season, it
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: was all the hitting.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Well, and they're still their thirtith at homers twenty ninth
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: and you're still not I don't think.
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: He's the one that did it.
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: Caleb Durbin's private hitting coach, whatever his name is. He
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: since he met with him, he has been a different guy.
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: So maybe they need to hire him.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: But that's why I'm saying, maybe I'm not believing it
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: as much, and that's why the answer was the answer.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: I don't know, so then they should be buying. I
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: think you can do that at the bank deadline, at
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: the train out name, yes, okay, hew, do you replace
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: it and need a right handed bats somewhere? Okay, But
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: I'm saying Jared rant in about one ninety, who are you.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: There?
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: He's not doing what's up and down there or braids?
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: All right, yes, but if you but I'm saying, there's
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: no way that fun effort is gonna say we're fine
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: replacing this question. You're look in the fully. The Figeries
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: need a right handed back. They're fine replacing replacing Derek Hill,
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: who I think is still doing it really off. For
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: the Phillies, you'll find replace it. The Red Sox have
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: a lot of young guys that I just don't know
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: if they're gonna go out and say we can get
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: Joe Adell to replace who in our outfield because he's
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: a right handed hitter.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying he's the answer.
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying I need the exam if you can
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: trade Jared Durant and get multiple players back.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: And one of them is I get what you're saying though.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: He's saying like.
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: Heavy, yeah, okay, very left hand heavy.
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: And they for years who've been saying they need it,
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: mean Wilson and Charles has been the right handed pop
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: really but they still needed somebody else. So you you know,
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: Jared Durant is always the name that's bannered about. So
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: if you could trade a Jared Duran and get a
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: right handed guy back, would you do it.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: To a team?
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: There's got to be a team out there that needs
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: a left handed hitting outfielder. I mean, I haven't dug
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: into it because there's still weeks away from now, but
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: listen to the Red Sox deserve a lot of I'm
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: gonna at the Stays. Raise obviously set three games out
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: of the Yankees. Everyone thought the Yankees are gonna run
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: away with it, right the White sounds like.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: They might be aggressive too.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: Sorry interrapped, but it's Bob Knight and Gal's notes yesterday
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: said they might go after Scoogle.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: Uh was a perfect fit for them.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: And on the offensive side, they apparently they like to
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: tell Marte, I don't know if you'll actually the available.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: Plus he's got the new trade they said a rise
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: like he was bringing up like legit names.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: But Rais will do that.
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: The Rais will go for a one year and a
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: half a year, got do it. They're happy to do
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: that is down this is but I mean, look at
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: the division by division, the White Sox in first place.
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: Nobody had that.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: What's going on?
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: There they can. There's the energy in that ballparking and hint.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: The opposite of the team from three four years.
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: Yes, they look like they know how to play baseball. Yeah,
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: they brought energy and want to play. Yes, and they
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: like each other. They're happy to come to the park
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: because they're winning.
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: But also it's just I think that's it.
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: It just looks like a better grip and it looks
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: like they get along better. And then they're all young,
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: the healthier, and you throw in they come to the
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: ballpark and there's a crowd there, which because they're winning,
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: there's a crowd there, which every I don't care what
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: team you are, like, we can use the Mets. The
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: Mets are supposed to be great. The Mets don't win
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: the city field, there's nobody there.
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: Sorry.
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: That's the way this works. If you win, you get
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: more people.
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: If you lose, you don't.
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: That's everybody likes to go watch a winner because when
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: you hit a game, you want to have fun. You
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: want to enjoy it. And let's say you take your
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: kids to the game. You want your kids to remember
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: them winning. You don't want your kids to go there
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: and say, how dang White Sox lost again and ohd
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: on this embarrassed to be a White Sox for no
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: so to me that and they just have a different
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: energy about it. And they have the whole Mike Vassa
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: with his wand and all cool like great gets fun.
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: It's fun to be a be a White Sox than again,
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: which means I mean, listen, they're fifty and forty five there,
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: they're criive games over, but during the they're in first place.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: That's like the record of every AL team that was
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: a really.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: Good AL teams are five over.
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: Where Will Venable gets a ton of agree a ton
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: of credit agrees he got to play with these guys,
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: or he got to coach these guys, manage these guys
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: last year, and now they come back and and you
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: know it's another year. This is what the Tigers, this
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: is what Scott Harrison said was gonna happen with the Tigers. Well,
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: they're just getting a year older. The White Socks are
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: actually doing it. Yeah, I don't think the White Socks
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: have enough pitching, but that can be addressed obviously.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: To me.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: My my last thing, the Guardians. The way the Guardians
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: finished the last half of the first half, I guess
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: sweeping a really good Marlins team to end the half.
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: The fact that they were doing all of this staying
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: within striking range of the White Sox without Jose Ramirez,
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: I think that is one of the more undercover and
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: it's standard. Nobody knows what the Guardians are doing. It's
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: the guard that like the way they played with who
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: they've played with. I think they're I think they're impressive here.
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: So like when we go through the standings, I mean,
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: Rangers in first place, apparently over five hundred, Mariners under
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: five hundred at the West.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: Well, my thing with the West is I still think
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: the Mariners are gonna go on.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: What's wrong with them? Are the under five hundred?
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: We're almost one hundred games in ninety seven games feet it's.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Only what four.
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: It's the same problem. Okay, Raves very first place. Still fine,
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: Flues were coming great wells. They're a great story. They
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: were in the playoff position.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: There's one other team in the National League that has
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: gotten really hot, but it's over along the stretch. It's
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: like since I think the beginning of June where their
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: records another not that one for sure.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: There's one more in that scene.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: Cubs. Cubs the Cubs are on fire, but they're still
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: fine out. Yeah, just got the by Pittsburgh and.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: Miss a little bit of the tired arm.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: Kyle Harrison on the il woodget's on the I l
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: there was a lame for the Cubs to make this
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: a good race in the National League.
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: Are you buying the Cups? Are you buying them because
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: just remember what they did fifteen straight or whatever early
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: in the season. Just remember, yeah that they're streaky and
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: then they go back. I like their defense a lot,
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: they're built for.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: Yes, I think they're hitting is more of the wind
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: Street hitting than the losing Street khitting.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: So I like them.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: The pitching is the concern for me. So here I'm
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: buying the Cubs. If the Cubs are buying the Cubs.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: Jed Hoyer said, if we're not a buy team, then
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: we're not as aggressive.
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: Season.
• 25:17
  Speaker 5: No.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: No, but he's saying they were a quote you remember
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: I'm paraphrasing, but he was like, we really buy if
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: we have a chance at the buy by, And I'm
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: like why wild card teams.
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: Can actually do a lot of damn movies.
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: You don't know if you're going to be the if
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: you're within four or five games of the Brewers just
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: grab two starters. I know it's not that easy, but
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: they need starting pitching, well pitching in general, because they're
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: down half their arms.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: We talked about that, and I thought about it after
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: the show. I just I don't hate that comment because
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: a GM saying stuff like that, what does that? How
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: does that permeate to the field with the dudes who
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: are grinding. Do you guys tell me we're always going
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: to They're always going to want to win. Nobody cares
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: what the front office says. I understand that, but I
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: think it is a soft is a soft rhetoric to
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: spit to your players that, oh, well, we're only really
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: in this if we're gonna get.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: A buye in the first round.
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: Well only in this.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: But he said that's when they are serious buyers.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: Oh, I know you know what AJ would do in
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: the club ass if you heard that quote, you'd be like,
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: come on, guys, we got to win today. If we
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: don't get the buye, we don't get more players, you
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: would definitely.
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: Be saying, of course, and by the way, before we go,
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: I know, we gotta go. Derek Chillon deserves a ton
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: of carder to what he's done with the Twins or
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: their injuries. Where they're at, I mean, that's they're a
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: sneaky good team. Ollie marmal and the Cardinals. It's Don Kelly, Yeah,
• 26:44
  Speaker 4: but they're still right there. Don Kelly with the Pirates,
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: I mean some teams Nationals definitely with things that they're
• 26:50

• 28:18
  Speaker 2: Orioles plays Alexander guy hit by a pitch and he's

• 28:28
  Speaker 1: which sucks.
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: But there was back and forth, Vinnie says, basically in

  Speaker 2: his Vinnie p way, like we're not trying to hit you.
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: So you guys can read the screen right now and
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: say some of the big parts of it, right, we.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: Have some Vinnie's like, we had some up and in pitches,
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: I mean, and he was saying like he's confident right now,
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: but like we're not trying to hit him.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: He's just replied this morning and said, weird take.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Never thought it was intentional, but the two quick pitches
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: to try and catch me off guard led me to
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: now missing games.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Thanks for the compliments, though.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: Bigfoot is reply to Vinnie p on Twitter, while Ersik said,
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: I I do quick pitch people.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: That's part of my game, so help me out here.
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: That's what he was pissed about. He was pissed about
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: the quick pitches, but he does that. But guys always
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: always a chirping. I know it's not legal. I'll just say,
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: you're not going to have to give me all of
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: your Raiders stuff. Why do you get the cheat to
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: give me.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: Aut But it's not if it's.
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: But this is this is the this is a little
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: bit of the inside. Dude's chirp about it. Well got
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: all the time. Oh guys, hitters hate it.
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: That's like hitter's just Latron Harkins was the first one
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: to ever do it, and I'd be like, La Trony
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: can't get one out, you gotta do this, and he's like,
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: we're rewards what And the same thing, like dude's walking
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: back after swinging it three straight breaking balls and he's
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: walking back to the dug out.
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: We were first ball right, hit the clothes ball like
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: it's constant.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: And the tantas even our buddy when people are bunting
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: on them, you know, everybody's got to complaint.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: We're talking MLB Draft, good bad, whatever with the legends
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: part of an iconic Baseball America brand, JJ co.
• 30:08
  Speaker 5: Opper co Opper.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: It's a silent pie coor oh coor core.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: JJ's great to have you all. We want to talk
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: right away about the number one pick.
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: Well, the great news is you will never replay this
• 30:24
  Speaker 5: clip where you mispronounced my name. There will never be
• 30:27
  Speaker 5: a need to. There's never going to be the point
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: where it's like JJ co Opper is going into the
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: Hall of Fame. Oh, it can't use that. However, if
• 30:36
  Speaker 5: Rock Schlowski's as good as we think he could be,
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: it's going to be really depressing to realize that we're
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: never going to be able to use with the first
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: pick in the draft, Rock Chalus, No, that won't work,
• 30:50
  Speaker 5: So can't use that clip now. Maybe maybe go back
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: and change it.
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: Did they pick the wrong guy? That's what I wanted
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: to know. Did they pick the wrong guy?
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: They get confused because this is a this was he
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: was only the number one pick from a year ago.
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: As soon as the draft was over, everyone pretty much
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: said it was gonna be this person. It's not like
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: he's snuck up on anybody.
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: To aj Okay, I feel like you understand white Sox fan,
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: What did do you think? How what percentage of average
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: white Sox fans do you think know who Rocked Scholawski
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: is before?
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: Almost says almost every white Sox fan has been talking
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: about them having the number one pick since last year.
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: For a whole year, they've said we're gonna get Rock
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: Schilowski number one. Overall, he's gonna be another shortstop. But
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: they can add in their organization with all of the
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: other shortstops they have.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: They've been excited. Every white Sox fan I talked.
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: To say, man, we have Montgomery and Bonhamer and all
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: these other traded Jacob Gonzalez away, but they have all
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: these guys coming, and we're gonna get one more next
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: year in July, and then you have all not all
• 32:01
  Speaker 4: of them, but I'd say ninety five percent of white
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: tax fans been planning.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: To have this pick for a year.
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: So yeah, I know, like I look, I know, I'm
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: I'm bathed in the draft for three hundred and sixty
• 32:12
  Speaker 5: five days a year. I get it that there are
• 32:14
  Speaker 5: going to be players when you go further down in
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: this that no one, no one, no general person's going
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: to have the pronunciation. They may screw it up, whatever,
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: but the one to one pick does seem like one
• 32:24
  Speaker 5: that you kind of really gotta gotta nail, especially when
• 32:28
  Speaker 5: he's also been the Golden Spike Soulward winner.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: He's been like a prominent guy going back to high school.
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: This isn't like, okay, wait, someone that we never knew
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: got picked it. I mean, it's a flob But again,
• 32:40
  Speaker 5: if unfortunately it was a you don't want to flop
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: the one one pick. I mean, you know, with the
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: first pick, the Chicago Bulls select Michael jod you know,
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know you can't do that.
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I like that. It's not yet.
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: We don't have the European name for the second round
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: to the NBA Draft here, like, this is the guy
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: we knew this was gonna happen. Tell us about him though,
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: because outside of AJ's fandom, the White Sox and unless
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: you know college baseball, what are the White Sox getting here?
• 33:17
  Speaker 5: So this was an interesting because I do think also
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: their White Sox thans who had fun kind of debates
• 33:22
  Speaker 5: about this because you had the choice of there's a
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: lot of noise. There's a lot of talk of is
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: Rock Shlaowski's still gonna be the the one pick? And
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: I think a lot of that makes sense from a
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: standpoint that the White Sox have to there is no
• 33:33
  Speaker 5: value in a draft pool system world to be like,
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: he's our guy, We're gonna get him no matter what
• 33:40
  Speaker 5: you play. You know, you say, hey, what's Grady Emerson's number?
• 33:43
  Speaker 5: What Frock Schulawski's number. But at the end of the day,
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: what they got is a shortstop who's pretty close to
• 33:52
  Speaker 5: a sure fire. Yes, this guy is a shortstop, memoll Seed.
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: They have Colston Montgomery. He's kind of got the veteran
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: privileges now of a guy who's already there good shortstop already.
• 34:01
  Speaker 5: He could play second base and be a stud second baseman.
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: He could probably play third base and be a stud
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: third base as well. But this is the guy with
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: real shortstop tools defensively and offensively. If you say who's
• 34:13
  Speaker 5: been the most productive college hitter over the past two
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: years combined, I think the answer is Rock Sholawski. Now,
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: if you want to say, was he the most productive
• 34:21
  Speaker 5: hitter in college baseball this year? Probably not.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: He was good, but he.
• 34:25
  Speaker 5: Wasn't any better. His numbers were maybe slightly worse than
• 34:28
  Speaker 5: his production last year. But if you dig deeper into it,
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: the other thing that stands out is he doesn't really
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: have a whole lot of massive flaws. He hits velocity,
• 34:39
  Speaker 5: he recognizes spin. He doesn't really you know, he kind
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: of uses the whole field. But at the same time,
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: when he gets in situations where he kind of gets
• 34:48
  Speaker 5: an ADVANTAGEOU accounts he knows how to basically, you know,
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: I am gonna I got a pitch I'm looking for,
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna pull it down the line hit a home
• 34:54
  Speaker 5: run is kind of just His power output was probably,
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: i'll be honest, like maybe a little better than his
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: ed's and all might indicate maybe that's going to be
• 35:04
  Speaker 5: a little bit of it's turn long term. But I
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: would say this is a as about as well. You
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: have so much track record here that the White Sox
• 35:15
  Speaker 5: can feel very comfortable. This should be a relative at
• 35:17
  Speaker 5: fast mover. It should be someone who I would be
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: shocked at all if we saw him kind of knocking
• 35:22
  Speaker 5: on the door in big leagues at some point next
• 35:24
  Speaker 5: year if he stays healthy. And the key thing here
• 35:26
  Speaker 5: is is, yes, they have a lot of shortstops. This
• 35:29
  Speaker 5: is it's great to have a lot of short stops.
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: We've seen this all the time. These are guys that
• 35:33
  Speaker 5: you can play pretty much anywhere. Shortstops can move in
• 35:37
  Speaker 5: a way that if you draft a third base then
• 35:39
  Speaker 5: you say, well, we don't we have a third basement. Okay,
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: well you can be a first baseman, you might be
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: a be a right fielder, but with a short stop,
• 35:44
  Speaker 5: you can be a short second basement. He could be
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: a third baseman, he could play in the outfield for you.
• 35:48
  Speaker 5: There's a lot of things that rock Flos can do,
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: not a great runner. One thing I will say is
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: it's not gonna be a center fielder. Who's gonna just
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: you know, Jackson Merrill and go from shortstop to the
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: center field like that. Necessarily it's not.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: A great runner.
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: That's probably one of the you know, minor downside of him,
• 36:01
  Speaker 5: but overall, the guy who's kind of in the wire
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: to wire number one prospect the consensus, I would say,
• 36:08
  Speaker 5: number one prospect in the draft. Going back to this
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: time last year, JJ.
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: How close were the I know it was kind of
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: a I don't want to say Floyd to get his
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: number down, but how close was it to Grady Emerson?
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: And then you hurt some von Lackey kind of rumors
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: flying around that he might be the number one pick?
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: How close was it or was it always Rock is
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: the number one pick?
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: I think it was a real discussion, and I think
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: it should have been like, look, Brady Emerson, that is
• 36:36
  Speaker 5: a premium bat. It's a high school player, but that's
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: a premium bat. That is someone who very much if
• 36:41
  Speaker 5: you told me he ends up being better than Rock
• 36:43
  Speaker 5: Slowski the long term, not a crazy idea at all.
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: I would say Rock's a little bit better as a
• 36:47
  Speaker 5: short spot. But you needed to have a real discussion.
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: This is not something I would say that we kind
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: of kept getting consensus from front offices, from scouts that
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: this is a three tier cop tier or maybe a
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: top two tier, with Chilaski, Emerson, Lackey slightly behind that
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: just by a slight touch. And then after that it's like, okay,
• 37:08
  Speaker 5: now it gets all crazy, and that's why you saw.
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: I would say, like picks six, you know, picks down,
• 37:15
  Speaker 5: you know, six and nine and all where the Royals
• 37:18
  Speaker 5: takes Zion Rose, and I would say that some teams
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: may love him, some teams may have been like, now
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: we would have taken him to twenty five. That was
• 37:24
  Speaker 5: where it really widened out. But at the top it
• 37:27
  Speaker 5: was Chilawski and Emerson and then to a slightly lesser extent, Lackie.
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: If you told me that the White Sox kind of realistically,
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: not like, oh, we're just playing the game to talk
• 37:37
  Speaker 5: down bonuses, but realistically we're considering Emerson until the you know,
• 37:44
  Speaker 5: till the the lead up to the draft. That makes
• 37:46
  Speaker 5: perfect sense. He's that good of a prospect. Again, if
• 37:49
  Speaker 5: you ask me right now, who's going to be a
• 37:51
  Speaker 5: better big leaguer Chilowski or Emerson, I'm gonna say Chilawski.
• 37:56
  Speaker 5: But that's because Emerson's a high school player. There's more,
• 38:00
  Speaker 5: there's more unknown with Emerson. But if you said, okay,
• 38:04
  Speaker 5: give me the odds that one of these guys is
• 38:07
  Speaker 5: a franchise type player, perennial All Star, I might say
• 38:12
  Speaker 5: that Emerson has a slightly better chance to do that.
• 38:14
  Speaker 5: I just feel better about Chilowski's chance of being the
• 38:17
  Speaker 5: comp that we've kind of thrown around on. Cholowski is
• 38:21
  Speaker 5: is a Dancy Swanson type, which I feel like we've
• 38:24
  Speaker 5: had some people respond to us and say, oh, you
• 38:25
  Speaker 5: want to do better, No, you don't like If you
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: do that at one one thumbs up, you've done great.
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: Like jam P Swanson has been a very an excellent
• 38:34
  Speaker 5: shortstop for pretty close to a decade. Now he's going
• 38:37
  Speaker 5: to keep doing it for a while longer. That's a
• 38:39
  Speaker 5: player who is great. And I would say that if
• 38:43
  Speaker 5: you got that out of Rock Shoulowski, you would be
• 38:45
  Speaker 5: very happy with the outcome.
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: What team have you been able to digest the entire draft?
• 38:50
  Speaker 4: What team do you feel like, wow, really made leafs
• 38:54
  Speaker 4: and bounds over other other teams.
• 38:58
  Speaker 5: Okay, I'll cheat for say the White Sox because I
• 39:01
  Speaker 5: not just love what they did at one but then
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: they went back and because they had a lot of picks.
• 39:05
  Speaker 5: But like when you look at a guy like a
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: land In Tomey, who I know, it's it's fun and
• 39:10
  Speaker 5: cute to say, oh, they just took him because you know,
• 39:12
  Speaker 5: he's basically Jim Tomay's kid. But land In tome and
• 39:16
  Speaker 5: Cole Prosek, I really love Cole Prosek, who was picked
• 39:18
  Speaker 5: forty for them. I would say that the Braves did
• 39:21
  Speaker 5: something very interesting where you look at their top two picks,
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: they went, you know, basically the college route, but then
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: they added some really nice high school arms after that.
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: Kind of like that draft a lot. Again, there's pit
• 39:33
  Speaker 5: their draft where you're kind of also could say it's
• 39:35
  Speaker 5: partly because they had so many picks. I really liked
• 39:38
  Speaker 5: what the Cardinals did. But I will say one that's
• 39:41
  Speaker 5: kind of an in the opposite direction, which is I'm
• 39:44
  Speaker 5: no way think that the Dodgers have won the best draft.
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: No way, they can't. They had so few picks. I
• 39:49
  Speaker 5: will say, though, it would not be shocked if we
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: look back at this draft for the Dodgers five years
• 39:54
  Speaker 5: from now and said, how do they keep getting away
• 39:56
  Speaker 5: with this? Because they are sitting here they didn't have
• 39:59
  Speaker 5: a pick until the fourth round, and you look at
• 40:02
  Speaker 5: their draft you're like, okay, I I you know, I'm
• 40:05
  Speaker 5: sorry that had one pick. They had pick forty bow
• 40:07
  Speaker 5: low ants and they did another pick until the fourth round.
• 40:10
  Speaker 5: And I still look at this draft and say, there's
• 40:11
  Speaker 5: some guys I like here, which shouldn't happen when you
• 40:13
  Speaker 5: basically have one pick in the top one hundred and
• 40:16
  Speaker 5: thirty picks. But the Dodgers are pretty good at finding
• 40:19
  Speaker 5: guys who have the traits that they can develop. I
• 40:22
  Speaker 5: would say, at the same time, I love that we
• 40:24
  Speaker 5: had two days.
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: Of the draft.
• 40:26
  Speaker 5: You have to kind of wait to see how the
• 40:28
  Speaker 5: full picture draws out, because if you'd asked me about
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: the Red Sox draft after the first round, I'd be like,
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: I don't understand it at all. But then we saw
• 40:38
  Speaker 5: it and take some guys later on where you're like, Okay,
• 40:40
  Speaker 5: now I see they're going to save money here, they're
• 40:42
  Speaker 5: going to spend it there. Still could be a little
• 40:44
  Speaker 5: bit challenging, but at the same time, much different than
• 40:47
  Speaker 5: it would have looked like if you just asked about
• 40:49
  Speaker 5: that draft after pick forty.
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: All right, JJ, real quick, who's the number one prospect
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: for next year.
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: Who's going to be drafted one one? We talked about
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: raw for a whole year. Who's the number one pick
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: for next little.
• 41:00
  Speaker 5: I have good news for you guys. We already have
• 41:02
  Speaker 5: our mock draft for next year already up, and I
• 41:04
  Speaker 5: would actually say that Dylan Seward, who is basically this
• 41:09
  Speaker 5: shortstop from California, who, if you said, describe him right now,
• 41:14
  Speaker 5: the way I would describe him as is, Okay, we
• 41:16
  Speaker 5: just talked about Grady Emerson, Grady Emerson's bat. Now if
• 41:19
  Speaker 5: take Grady Emerson's bat and Jacob Lombard, who is in
• 41:21
  Speaker 5: this draft, who's considered the best defensive shortstop in the
• 41:23
  Speaker 5: first round, put those two together and that gives you
• 41:26
  Speaker 5: Dylan Seward. I would not be shocked. DA's Whitney. If
• 41:30
  Speaker 5: you've been healthy for Oregon State, maybe would have a
• 41:32
  Speaker 5: chance to kind of compete for that. But Whitney blew
• 41:34
  Speaker 5: out his elbow and will probably miss the entire twenty
• 41:38
  Speaker 5: twenty seven season, which was with Whitney hurt, I would
• 41:42
  Speaker 5: be shocked at all. If Seward kind of does what
• 41:44
  Speaker 5: Rock Shlawski did and it's kind of our poll to poll,
• 41:47
  Speaker 5: he's our number one prospect right now as we get
• 41:49
  Speaker 5: out of the twenty sixth Draft. Would not surprise me
• 41:52
  Speaker 5: at all if Dylan Seward is our number one prospect
• 41:54
  Speaker 5: at this time next year and we're talking about whoever
• 41:57
  Speaker 5: wins the lottery, the Angels or whoever being yet one
• 42:00
  Speaker 5: to one having taken Dylan Seuler, and we're saying this
• 42:02
  Speaker 5: is you know, this is an impact addition to a club. JJ.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: Awesome coverage, Broa.
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: We need better coverage of the draft.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: No, we.
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: Have better coverage. Coverage is incredible, But I'm saying from
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: a sports.
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: Team, we bury this thing Saturday afternoon like under games
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: and every I mean quiet quitting.
• 42:25
  Speaker 5: No, can I ask that? Can I ask one request
• 42:27
  Speaker 5: for next year for the draft, which again it should
• 42:29
  Speaker 5: not start when it did one you know that looked
• 42:31
  Speaker 5: weird to have it at one thirty. But on top
• 42:33
  Speaker 5: of that, I just have a simple request. Can we
• 42:36
  Speaker 5: not be tearing down the set during rounds two, three,
• 42:39
  Speaker 5: and four, so like when they're announcing picks, you're hearing
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: jack hammering and all in the background and lists going
• 42:45
  Speaker 5: up and down and all that, which, by the way,
• 42:48
  Speaker 5: we were there to cover the draft until you know,
• 42:50
  Speaker 5: pick the last pick of the four rounds over we
• 42:53
  Speaker 5: were kicked out. We can't cover it there, like I
• 42:55
  Speaker 5: don't know, you know, like we like being there. But
• 42:57
  Speaker 5: at the same time, it would have been a lot
• 42:58
  Speaker 5: better for us if we hadn't be. We had to
• 43:00
  Speaker 5: pick up literally mid draft to get out of there
• 43:03
  Speaker 5: because we were in danger because they were lowering the
• 43:05
  Speaker 5: lighting trust at all over the area where everyone was
• 43:10
  Speaker 5: setting up, but set up.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: So the question would would NBA, NFL would they ever
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: be doing construction on their draft, tearing it down while
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: the what second third, like these are not the early
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: rounds two? I mean, they wouldn't do that for anything.
• 43:25
  Speaker 5: Daniel Jackson, the Golden Spikes Award winner, was being picked
• 43:27
  Speaker 5: as this was happening, Like not like guys where you like,
• 43:30
  Speaker 5: no one's ever heard of them. This was the guy
• 43:32
  Speaker 5: who was literally quoted, you know, by the Golden Spikes
• 43:35
  Speaker 5: was the most productive player in college base pleader.
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: Here and this is important because we love the game.
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: We promote the game.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: We are saying something that is going on within the
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: sport that everybody that works for the league to is
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: saying the same things to us. We're just delivering the
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: message because some people can and can't say this stuff.
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: I just want to leave it at that. Because we
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: love the game, we want to make it better. We
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: have to call it out because many people can't.
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: So thank you JJ for the coverage you got thirty
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: minutes later to bring it on cheap watch out just.
• 44:01
  Speaker 5: So we'll feel on hot sheet. Put more about this.
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: Okay, you got it, Thanks j J. We'll be all
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: right back everyone.
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: Many people have this problem. I want to eat healthy.
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: I have the willpower, I don't have the time and
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: the organization. I need help.
• 44:14

• 45:17
  Speaker 1: Let's says a lock corner time. I feel like there
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: were two controversies.
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: One was really mainstage, mainstream Zach Wheeler not getting the
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: ask and we asked Chris Sale about it recently on
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: the show and then eventually got the ask and said no.
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: And the other one is Cam Schlitzler saying no, he's
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: not going to pitch. He's not hurt, he just doesn't
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: feel comfortable doing it right now. But John Schneider said
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: he wasn't going to be the starter anyway. It was
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: going to be Dylan Cease. So fake your poison. Where
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: do you want to start?
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: Well, Zach, we were thinking, to me, was crazy. He
• 45:46
  Speaker 4: should have made it and then they should have just
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: replaced him right away. But he did say he would pitch,
• 45:51
  Speaker 4: which I think in his home city of Philly, they
• 45:54
  Speaker 4: should have given him that option. Whether he wanted to
• 45:56
  Speaker 4: or not. He deserves to be here. We showed his numbers.
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: I mean, was he ten and one or two one
• 46:02
  Speaker 4: e r A.
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: Something like that? He said he would pitch, So I
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: think that's crazy.
• 46:06
  Speaker 4: This ran through with Hunter Goodman not being asked to
• 46:08
  Speaker 4: be in the home run derviy for me, a guy
• 46:10
  Speaker 4: who's in the top five in the league of home
• 46:11
  Speaker 4: runs not being asked. So I but then, what I
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: don't understand is I get players have egos, but I
• 46:18
  Speaker 4: don't understand why Zach Wheeler then turned it down.
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: Is there is it a scheduling thing where it's like,
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: all right, well, I guess it's a no. All right,
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: fam We're going to Bahamas for two days.
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: Is it like that? Or do you think it's like, hey,
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: it's disrespectful.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: I've been in the game for a long again, I
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: don't know, but I'm going to bring him on at
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: some point and ask him about it.
• 46:35
  Speaker 4: I just wish he was in the game and pitching
• 46:37
  Speaker 4: the same because I like to see him, especially in Philly.
• 46:41
  Speaker 4: I love it that he said, well, how do you
• 46:44
  Speaker 4: not pick how because of a rule? Like I'm because
• 46:47
  Speaker 4: I'm pitching Sunday, So it's all of a sudden the rule.
• 46:50
  Speaker 4: So did major League Baseball turn back around and go oh, well,
• 46:54
  Speaker 4: it is a rule, but now we're not because we're
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: getting bad pub to me. If that's the case. He
• 47:00
  Speaker 4: was told it was a rule, and that's why you're
• 47:02
  Speaker 4: not We're not gonna pick you. I love the fact
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: that he said no, because they said it was a
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: role before and now oh no, no, no, no, no,
• 47:11
  Speaker 4: actually it's.
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: Not a ring.
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, well I have a role.
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: We have to go right to media day, Tresha Whitaker
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: saying nope, I was told yes, no, no, you're told.
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: No, Scott in there. We changed the rules on you.
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: For like major League Baseball. We can change the rules
• 47:27
  Speaker 4: when we went to video. But so anyways, uh don't.
• 47:33
  Speaker 4: I thought Wheeler should have been here from the get go.
• 47:34
  Speaker 4: I didn't think it was either. But what someone told
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: me though that I forget who told me it might
• 47:40
  Speaker 4: have been Bob nine when I saw must like Wheeler
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: wasn't voted in on like the top by the players
• 47:46
  Speaker 4: because the players vote on the pitchers and he was
• 47:48
  Speaker 4: far down the list, so they didn't go and ask, yeah,
• 47:51
  Speaker 4: it's what I think. I don't know that Shocker players
• 47:54
  Speaker 4: got it wrong. Shocker players didn't vote Otani as the
• 47:58
  Speaker 4: best player that's your favorite, argum, that's my favorite. But
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: it's it's always gonna be my argument because they're filling
• 48:03
  Speaker 4: out the exact same papers like they're filling it out,
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: and they're probably filling it out in the middle of
• 48:09
  Speaker 4: the beginning of June.
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: But what we have phones? Send that John right to
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: your phone.
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: No, too complicated.
• 48:16
  Speaker 4: On July whenever they choose everybody, Hey, now we have
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: to pick pictures. But let me see the stats with it.
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, Zach Wheeler. Of course I haven't seen
• 48:26
  Speaker 4: him yet. I haven't seen him yet this year, So
• 48:28
  Speaker 4: what are his numbers? It takes zero time, But they
• 48:31
  Speaker 4: want to print it out. They want to throw it
• 48:34
  Speaker 4: on the table. I've seen dudes go here, you fill
• 48:36
  Speaker 4: it out.
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: Many people would hand it to the PR guy and
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: go here.
• 48:40
  Speaker 4: Philosophy like, that's actually not bad.
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: When a player doesn't pay attention at all in the
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: hands it to someone that doesn't, I know it's it's.
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: And then we should be here, That's what I'm saying.
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: Then then don't let the players vote for this.
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: I hope he sits in the stands. He's like, well,
• 48:58
  Speaker 3: I's gonna be in Philly anyway. He went. I'm sure
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: he went back.
• 49:01
  Speaker 4: Home in Georgia Home and Georgia Hill.
• 49:04
  Speaker 3: Well, good for him, he gets a break.
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: Should Cam Schlittler have been the starter if.
• 49:08
  Speaker 3: He John Snider?
• 49:10
  Speaker 4: He's rewarding a guy that they signed as a free agent.
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: Is that fair?
• 49:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's the manager. You can do whatever he wants.
• 49:15
  Speaker 4: Why did the man Why does Cam Schluller say he
• 49:17
  Speaker 4: doesn't want to he was scheduled to pitch just because
• 49:20
  Speaker 4: he wasn't starting.
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: I think the bigger thing, because you can say whatever
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: it is that he said, Oh it's going to be
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: ceased anyway. I think the bigger story is camp Splitzer
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: not pitch it like are we is? This is he's
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: starting a trend of young guys who are I mean,
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: nobody's doing what he's doing. He's front runner right now
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: for Alsim. But he's starting a trend that is going
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: to put baseball in a place like the NBA, and
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: then we're going to start seeing stupid three on three
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: competition where we're throwing basketball, so we're flipping baseballs and
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: we're taking soft toss during game from playing with football
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: out on the field.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: I don't think we're at that.
• 49:59
  Speaker 5: No, but but what, but what?
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: This is his first full season, right, his first All
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: Star game. He's given him length already, He's almost at
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty innings. He's gonna probably pitch in October.
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: I'm growing in.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: I get who's telling him. I'm just saying, this is
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: what's being toiled on the other side. So who's telling
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: him this?
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: To me?
• 50:18
  Speaker 4: I don't think young kids, young players make bad decisions.
• 50:23
  Speaker 4: Who around him is telling him this?
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: Well, who dictates a lot of this stuff?
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: Manager slash on office, We have to ask, I mean,
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: Aaron Boom said, And he's not making stuff up, he
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: said to the me. I think he even was a
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: little bit surprised that he wasn't doing He wanted to
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: make sure he was comfortable with the decision he was
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: going to make.
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: But it is what it is.
• 50:44
  Speaker 5: It is what it is.
• 50:44
  Speaker 4: But this is a It's still the best all Star game.
• 50:48
  Speaker 4: I get Pro Bowls not called that, but all the
• 50:51
  Speaker 4: league's All Star games, this is still the best one.
• 50:54
  Speaker 4: And I don't want Cam Schlinder because then next year,
• 50:58
  Speaker 4: who's it gonna be? Chase Burns is I'm just thinking
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: of who the rookie pitcher is right, like, is it
• 51:06
  Speaker 4: going to be because he could have thrown this could
• 51:09
  Speaker 4: have been we had Sale on you heard Sale talking
• 51:11
  Speaker 4: about it. I remember that I was a player. I
• 51:14
  Speaker 4: was a fellow player with Chris Sale at the time,
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: not an All Star, just a fellow player. I remember
• 51:19
  Speaker 4: watching that game going, whoa, he turned.
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: Up, Like Chris said, he hasn't fixed in many lately.
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: Yes, but he's but he's been there. He's also how
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: old you saw much gray was in his beard?
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 51:32
  Speaker 2: Even But if you're too young or too so, you
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: want the young pitchers to do it and appreciate it.
• 51:38
  Speaker 4: Do you think Paul Skeens pitches in this game? If
• 51:40
  Speaker 4: he didn't pitch Sender he was named to the All
• 51:44
  Speaker 4: Star team, do you think he pitches or Paul Skeen's
• 51:46
  Speaker 4: now checking out too.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: I think it's just year by year by case, Yeah,
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: case by guys.
• 51:52
  Speaker 3: Some guys really want to pitch, some guys don't.
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: So then I'm not saying camp Siller doesn't want it,
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: but he's.
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: Not better and you don't want to say it like
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: your arms tags that hurts your free agent case are
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: and start being like that was going to be my question.
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: You can't say that any Do you think there's something
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: to be more to camp slit, well, because you can
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: take the hit of he doesn't want to pitch. Actually,
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: that sounds good to teams. What makes you more attractive.
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: I know he's not thinking about his free agency, but
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: what I mean. Front offices don't want you to pitch
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: in anything but your games. That's a fact, and their
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: job is to win. They don't care about the All
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: Star Game, they don't care about the WBC, they don't
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: care about the winner leagues unless it's somebody that's trying
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: to get themselves back going again. But generally they don't
• 52:29
  Speaker 2: want any of their guys in the winter leagues either. Right,
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: I pay you a lot of money to pitch in
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: my games.
• 52:36
  Speaker 5: Part of it.
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: I'm just presenting the other side, obviously want everybody to
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: pitch in every year. I'm just telling you this is
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: what happens in our sport. There are front office executives
• 52:45
  Speaker 2: that get paid millions of dollars to win games and
• 52:48
  Speaker 2: not care about anything else but winning baseball because winning
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: baseball drives fans, fans, interest, revenue, everything. It's the whole
• 52:59
  Speaker 2: complexion of the revolving or your team revolves around winning games.
• 53:03
  Speaker 4: Sorry, I watched cam Slitller Hitch too many times on
• 53:07
  Speaker 4: TV in his short career so far. I don't see
• 53:10
  Speaker 4: him unilaterally making this decision. I'm just fearful that there
• 53:15
  Speaker 4: are people in the background that will also talk to
• 53:19
  Speaker 4: the next cam Schlitler talk to the next This isn't
• 53:22
  Speaker 4: gonna ruin his career. I'm just saying, this is the
• 53:25
  Speaker 4: marquee event here. I want to see these guys, and
• 53:29
  Speaker 4: I hope they are not people in the background telling
• 53:32
  Speaker 4: the next cam Slitler take it easy, bro, Well let's see.
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: Let's give it a two three more years.
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: If he's dominating like this every year and he's not pitching,
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: then we're like, all right, then.
• 53:43
  Speaker 4: It permeates the hole league, Like why am I going
• 53:46
  Speaker 4: to rock Jojowski? Mit Mitchwasowski? He makes it tee.
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: You guys are players. Do you think that's how it
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: would be? You're all gonna copy somebody like that? You
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: guys those pitchers? Is that how it works?
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: They see some other guy do it, and also like
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: that's what you want to copy. That's like the kid
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: that skips class every day, Like oh, like he doesn't
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: go to class ever, was.
• 54:11
  Speaker 4: I can see I can see kids copying things. I
• 54:13
  Speaker 4: don't think kids should copy. But again, I don't think
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: kids are any different nowadays than they were when we
• 54:19
  Speaker 4: were kids. It's the people around them that's it. People
• 54:23
  Speaker 4: will always be like, oh my, my football coach, he
• 54:26
  Speaker 4: would have never allowed that, having on my football team. Yeah,
• 54:29
  Speaker 4: but you were still such an idiot like you would
• 54:31
  Speaker 4: do things. It's the people around them, and that's what
• 54:33
  Speaker 4: I'm afraid of because the NBA has just they've lost
• 54:37
  Speaker 4: control of the road men. They've lost control of it,
• 54:41
  Speaker 4: and I don't want to see that. Here is this
• 54:44
  Speaker 4: a gateway drug to the load load management? He's not
• 54:47
  Speaker 4: the first guy that's done this, not he's not, But
• 54:51
  Speaker 4: he's the most one of them.
• 54:52
  Speaker 9: That happens every year. What's it that happens every year?
• 54:55
  Speaker 9: But he's this is what he should be young. Come on,
• 55:02
  Speaker 9: Schider picked his own guy.
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: And you know I'm not on Schneider. I'm saying should this?
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, I know he's the manager who gets to
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: pick your pitching order, but like, should we should someone
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: else get to pick the starters, like the fans or something?
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: For the starting Well, they picked the other starters.
• 55:15
  Speaker 3: Everyone pitching.
• 55:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Andrew, listen, Shosh Scheider gets a reward the guy
• 55:20
  Speaker 4: who's having a great year on his own teeth.
• 55:22
  Speaker 3: This is how it happens. Ham like this for every
• 55:24
  Speaker 3: single game in history.
• 55:27
  Speaker 5: You like it.
• 55:28
  Speaker 3: It's your team to.
• 55:31
  Speaker 4: Because they were in Philadelphia. Could you make an argument
• 55:35
  Speaker 4: for someone else's start well nationally, Well, Miss.
• 55:38
  Speaker 3: Isn't pitching, so yeah, I should be Miss.
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: No.
• 55:40
  Speaker 3: I think I think it should be Chris Sale.
• 55:43
  Speaker 4: I think Chris Sale would have been a cool pick
• 55:45
  Speaker 4: because it's his tenth and he's doing legit. I think
• 55:50
  Speaker 4: it's a I think I think they got it right
• 55:53
  Speaker 4: on both faces. But if Cam was still in it,
• 55:57
  Speaker 4: I think it would be awesome.
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: Right, it's Camera ceas it. He's got a better first half.
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: It's just it is what it is.
• 56:06
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: Cease wanted it, though, hey sees is actually the opposite
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: of that. He wants to pitch.
• 56:10
  Speaker 10: He always wants the ball, he always wants the way,
• 56:12
  Speaker 10: and he always takes the ball too. He was on
• 56:14
  Speaker 10: il for the hamstring, That's why he took it. That's
• 56:17
  Speaker 10: why he had a big contract. Because people want to
• 56:19
  Speaker 10: slice and dice everything in the off season. Sometimes it's
• 56:22
  Speaker 10: also like Hey, does he post? Oh he does, Okay,
• 56:26
  Speaker 10: that's good.
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: Casuals don't understand what it means to post, because if
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: he doesn't post, you know who posts instead of him,
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: the six seven, eight, nine tenth starter whoever it is,
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: number to tell you about the difference between the tenth
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: starter that the Blue Jays have and Dylan sees.
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: That's what it's about.
• 56:46
  Speaker 4: Yes, that's why you pay for it, and that's why
• 56:50
  Speaker 4: those guys get rewarded. Well, there's also no there's also
• 56:54
  Speaker 4: no facility where a kid can go to learn how
• 56:57
  Speaker 4: to show up and make their bodies healthy every single day.
• 57:01
  Speaker 4: Every pitching facility in the world for kids is about
• 57:05
  Speaker 4: how hard do you throw?
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: You have to throw hard. Dylan Cees has figured out
• 57:10
  Speaker 3: how to stay healthy and be on the field, besides
• 57:13
  Speaker 3: a hamstring john that he had this year first time
• 57:16
