That's lose their star player, they lose their star closer.
0:04
That's are in a bad spot right now.
0:11
I've never seen a Ranger team quick before the Olympics.
0:14
We're going to be looking at Aaron Judge and saying that he
0:17
can't win the big game, Michael Jordan said.
0:19
I played 82 games. You don't see the fun doing
0:22
that, but Jack Hughes did after getting his teeth knocked down
0:25
to play every single shift he got back in the game.
0:30
I'm going to fight him off. I said the Nation how me
0:34
couldn't hold me back. They're going to RIP it off,
0:39
take it back. This kid go to black festive
0:42
fence and I took it. To myself at night.
0:45
Because I can't hold it back and forth through my mind behind the
0:58
scene. Hello, you're listening to the
1:31
New York sports loudmouth. Welcome, welcome, welcome.
1:36
You know who we are. I'm wearing my New York Yankee
1:40
jersey tonight. My FIFA26 memorabilia hats could
1:47
be worth a couple of bucks in the future.
1:49
My name is Errol Marx. They call me the Mouth My Co
1:52
host X New York Jet first round draft pick Mr. Quinton Couples.
1:58
Yes, Sir, distinguished gentleman from Keston, North
2:01
Carolina, I. Don't know about that.
2:03
Great, but. Everything.
2:04
Don't give him any compliments. Let's go, baby.
2:07
And the speedster, Speedy PD executive producer.
2:11

2:14
back end, Mr. Knits and our PR manager and our new producer,
2:18

2:41

2:43
www.worldwidesportsradio.com. And now, ladies and gentlemen,
2:48
we're going to go right into inside baseball.
2:50
Now let's go deep, deep inside what I am excited.
2:55
This is inside baseball. Blow my back out.
3:01
All right, let's get into inside baseball.
3:05
Errol, you've been clamoring for this.
3:09
It feels like about 18 months. Let's get it, baby, let's get
3:13
it. Well, maybe he didn't want it to
3:15
happen the way it did. Jason Dominguez got carted off
3:18
today, making a great play in the outfield, but smashed into
3:23
the wall. He sprained his AC joint.
3:26
That's probably about a month. So he was up because Stanton's
3:29
on the IL. So now there's at bats for
3:33
Spencer Jones. So Spencer Jones is being called
3:36
up. He's going to make his debut.
3:38
He's technically the Yankees #6 prospect according to the
3:43
advanced metric, whatever prospect stuff, but his numbers
3:47
this year? 258 batting average, 366 on base
3:51
and a 592 slugging with 11 homers and then AAA leading 41
3:58
RBIs through 33 games. Ladies and gentlemen, you're
4:04
going to get a chance to see the future of the New York Yankees.
4:07
I don't care what he's hitting. In AAA, when Aaron Judge was
4:11
being called up, he was hitting 261.
4:14
This guy can hit home runs. He can hit RB.
4:16
Is this guy is a power hitter, left-handed power hitter in
4:20
Yankee Stadium, 5 tool player, can defend multiple positions.
4:24
This guy deserves an opportunity to be called up and now you're
4:27
going to get a chance to see him.
4:28
We've seen players get called up and not achieve.
4:31
This guy is going to achieve everything that I've said he's
4:33
going to achieve. Jason Dominguez.
4:35
I feel bad that he went down, but this is a new age baby, the
4:39
Spencer Jones train, and he's going to run right into the fans
4:44
and you're going to fall in love with him.
4:45
I love him. I I've told you about him and
4:48
you're going to see why he's so special.
4:50
Yep, the raw power has always been there.
4:52
A lot of our baseball guests between ex players and even Jake
4:55
Savicki who I don't know a few months ago was mentioning that
4:57
his raw power is already going to be there to be able to
4:58
transition into the Major League quickly.
5:00
Now will this whole complete game do it right away?
5:02
We'll see. Obviously he's going to get a
5:04
chance in the outfield to start maybe that he moves around with
5:06
first as well with Bellinger and a lot of those guys and Ben
5:09
Rice. And you're going to see the reps
5:11
that are going to come on multiple positions I think to
5:13
get him acclimated to everything right now.
5:15
But I think they're all hitting is there.
5:16
We'll see with the the on base percentage.
5:18
I think that's the biggest key because I don't think the
5:20
batting average will come right away for him.
5:21
But if you can get on base, that's what Judge did early in
5:23
his career. He got on base, walked a lot and
5:25
that's why he should have won MVP and obviously won Rookie of
5:27
the year by a landslide. I'm not saying he's going to hit
5:29
fifty home runs. I think if he gets called up and
5:33
he gets a chance and the Yankees give him a chance, he's going to
5:36
be one of those power hitters you're going to love to watch
5:40
and you're going to follow because he's fun and he's
5:42
exciting. He can steal bases too, man.
5:44
He could steal a lot of bases. He could be a 30 base stealer.
5:47
He can hit thirty home runs and he's 6 foot seven.
5:50
I mean, the guy's a giant and he's got tremendous power.
5:52
It's fit for Yankee Stadium. His left-handed power is fit
5:56
there at the Bronx. I'm telling you guys, I remember
5:58
I said this. I've not been wrong about this
6:00
guy and I'm telling you, don't care what he's doing a AAA.
6:03
You can look at what what Aaron Judge was doing a AAA when he
6:06
got called up. Oh, he strikes out a lot.
6:08
That's that's that. He's going to figure it out,
6:10
guys, I'm telling you, and he's going to do it in the majors.
6:13
I love him. And even if he even if he does
6:15
strike out a lot, you saw that with still with Judge.
6:17
If Judge Judge got on base though, like he was still
6:20
walking a lot. If the batting average came
6:21
later on. I think his second season was
6:23
more of the breakout with that. But I think you look at even
6:26
some of the other big prospects that have happened.
6:27
Ellie De La Cruz had a lot of strikeouts when he came up.
6:29
Even Acuna had a lot of strikeouts when he came up and
6:31
he was a high end prospect. So I'm not saying he's going to
6:34
be that good right away, Spencer Jones, but he's got the raw
6:36
power to do that. As long as he gets on base and
6:37
walks a lot I think he'll be fine.
6:39
You know, like a lot of people look at how many points above
6:43
your batting average you're on base percentages to determine
6:47
how good of an eye you have and how important of a player.
6:50
Because if you're not getting on base, I mean, it's the old
6:51
moneyball argument, Doesn't matter if you get a walk or a
6:54
hit, it matters. You get on base.
6:55
Spencer Jones is on base is over 100 points higher than his
6:59
batting average, which tells you he's an elite Walker as well as
7:04
an elite power hitter. That's exactly what you want,
7:07
Errol. I mean, this is the cleanup
7:09
hitter the Yankees have needed for a long, long time.
7:12
Everybody's going to love him. Everybody's going to love him.
7:14
I'm telling. You think about what you now can
7:16
do. Your lineup gets extended an
7:19
extra bat. You now can go righty lefty,
7:21
righty lefty all the way down the lineup.
7:24
It's really, really impressive. It also opens up if he does
7:28
succeed and now you have a month of him playing well, you don't
7:31
bring Dominguez back. He now becomes a trade ship for
7:35
real and they're going to try to see what else they need.
7:37
And, and Errol, where, where else would they spend money if
7:42
they could move Dominguez? Because I know there's a spot
7:44
that you might want them to upgrade at.
7:47
That might be there long term, might not be there long term.
7:50
Well, there's there's a couple of spots.
7:52
I mean, third base is definitely needed.
7:54
The I, I, the Yankees haven't out of the top third baseman
7:57
really since Alex Rodriguez with the raw power.
8:01
That's the position I'm looking for at first base.
8:04
A lot of people think that they can move Spencer Jones to first
8:06
base in the future or Aaron Judge to the future.
8:09
They don't really need to go. And they have Rice, who it looks
8:11
like he's going to be the future 1st baseman for a while over
8:14
there. He's solidified.
8:15
Danny playing backup catcher for the Yankees.
8:18
I think you go third base, there's a couple of guys
8:21
shortstop. They have a guy that's kind of
8:23
Lombard is going to come up very soon.
8:24
He's going to be the shortstop. They're going to move Volpe to
8:27
second base. They have to solidify those
8:30
positions. It's the third base position.
8:32
And I'm not saying what's his name again, Man, man, man.
8:36
Yes, I, I, I don't know if he's going to be the future there,
8:40
but the Yankees have him for at least another year.
8:42
They could bring in another power hitter or they could trade
8:44
him involved with Dominguez and maybe another pitcher, maybe
8:48
somebody else. I don't know.
8:50
There's there. They got a ton of pitches.
8:52
Bullpen, I think you maybe you look at.
8:54
We'll see down the road though. They they got a ton of pitchers.
8:56
I was going to say, like, I think it's too early to tell
8:58
like what they're going. To need the way Will Warren is
9:00
pitching right now, I wouldn't trade him.
9:03
But if you want a star third baseman, you want a young guy,
9:07
you trade Will Will Warren and you add Jason Dominguez, you can
9:12
get yourself a stud at third base for the future and have
9:16
control of him for a very long time.
9:18
If the Yankees want to do that, they can do that.
9:20
But because they're loaded, they have pitching.
9:22
I mean, Rodriguez, Elmer Rodriguez, they have so much
9:25
pitching right now. The Yankees have never been in
9:27
this position in a very long time.
9:29
This is great to watch. What the Yankees are.
9:31
Schlittler is like, you could argue he's the best pitcher in
9:33
baseball right now. You know, Errol, I didn't think
9:36
you were going to go there. I, I thought you were going to
9:38
go to one of your least favorite Yankees, Mr. Jazz.
9:41
Chisholm, who wants to be paid like he's a superstar this
9:45
offseason and is not going to be paid like a superstar.
9:48
And if you think about it, him and Dominguez together in a deal
9:53
would get you a lot. And I, I'm very curious what
9:57
they could get in a package that big, especially if they think
10:01
Lombard or Volpe can go over the short.
10:03
If that's the case, they got Volpe sitting there in AAA, they
10:06
can move him right to second base right now.
10:09
They could, they could do that right now.
10:10
They don't have to wait on that. Well, they were saying that they
10:12
were saying that Lombard might be ready by the end of the year.
10:15
So they're saying that it could be as as good.
10:17
He's already in AAA. He started the season in AA.
10:21
He dominated AA. Now he's in AAA.
10:23
So it all it takes is a little bit of the scouts to say this
10:27
kids ready. He's got power, he can get on
10:29
base, he can walk and he's he's an absolute stud as a defensive
10:33
player and the Yankees are going to call him up.
10:35
Volpe will be up very, very soon, ladies and gentlemen, and
10:38
you can best believe the Yankees aren't going to keep him in AAA
10:41
much longer. All right, let's move on to the
10:43
other team in New York, and that would be the Mets.
10:46
Oh, Errol, did you catch any of this game before the show
10:49
started? Because what a disaster.
10:51
All right, it's 22. It gets late.
10:54
Light hitting Jake McCarthy up with the bases loaded and
10:57
perhaps future Hall of Famer Craig Kimbrel on the mound.
11:01
He hasn't been good for a number of years and he serves up a
11:04
Grand Slam. And the Mets go from having a
11:07
sweep in Colorado and feeling good about themselves to blowing
11:11
a very, very winnable game and only taking two out of three
11:15
again. And I guess they've they what,
11:16
split both of those series with the Rockies down the middle?
11:19
Not necessarily great. All right, so for all the Met
11:24
fans that were excited about almost sweeping Colorado,
11:27
they're one of the worst teams in the National League.
11:28
As a matter of fact, the Mets are probably the worst team
11:32
right now in the National League.
11:33
And the second worst team in the National League is the Colorado
11:36
Rockies. So you want to break about that?
11:40
You're out there and, and, and excited about that.
11:42
Good for you. The fact here is the New York
11:45
Mets have been a debacle. They're trying to figure out
11:48
ways to win games and and win series.
11:51
And they did win this series. Congratulations to them.
11:53
But they need to figure out what this team's identity is.
11:57
I, I don't know what it is. I, I watch Soto and he's a
12:01
special player. We all know what he is as a
12:03
Yankee fan. We got a chance to see him a
12:05
year. He went to the World Series,
12:06
great. He decided to go there and he, I
12:08
remember what Juan Soto said when he was at that press
12:11
conference. I went to the better New York
12:13
team. Did he not say that?
12:15
And Aaron Judge came out and said, hold on one second.
12:18
I I disagree with him. And Juan can think whatever he
12:22
wants to think, we'll do it. We'll we'll figure that out on
12:24
the field. Well, we've already figured it
12:26
out. The Yankees are the better team,
12:28
they're the better organization and Aaron Judge is the better
12:31
player. So why are you going to come out
12:32
and say those things and not have your team playing at a high
12:36
level 2 you're one of the leaders of the team.
12:38
You got Lindor, you wanted to go and play with Lindor.
12:41
Now you guys can't get along. So what's going on in that
12:44
locker room? What, where's the leadership
12:45
there that goes from the higher ups?
12:48
You had Pete Alonso there, you have Jeff McNeil and you had
12:53
Brandon Nimmo, 3 leaders. And you know why you didn't want
12:57
them there anymore? Because Lynn Dorr and his wife
13:01
was working for the mayor of New York.
13:04
And they, they're conservative and you're liberal.
13:07
And it it, it didn't work out that you couldn't get along in a
13:10
locker room. Pathetic, Pathetic.
13:12
That shows you leadership. How many conservative liberals
13:14
aren't there out there in the world?
13:16
Don't talk about politics. That's what everybody says.
13:19
But hey, what you do and how you react to things only get you
13:23
into trouble. And that's what's going on with
13:24
the Mets. There's just more trouble going
13:26
on that nobody knows. Yeah, that's always been a
13:29
problem with the team culture. It hasn't changed with the
13:32
ownership. Unfortunately the Mets find just
13:34
creative ways to be more annoying than they should be
13:37
with the way they operate, and they should brought it up like
13:39
they're resorting now to have to do crazy.
13:41
Kimbrell hasn't been good in like 6 years to try to resurrect
13:44
this bullpen that's been just. Bad.
13:46
Why are we getting into why does anybody care about what you are
13:49
as a liberal, conservative or Republican?
13:52
Why is that going on in the locker room?
13:54
Because you got guys leadership over there that don't know how
13:57
to control their mouths. Nobody had to know what your
14:00
wife was doing. Nobody had to know what you were
14:02
doing behind closed doors. Rooting or voting for this it,
14:06
it created problems in that locker room.
14:08
Pete Alonzo should still be there.
14:10
Brandon Nimmo should still be there.
14:12
I don't know about Jeff McNeil because he sucked, but those two
14:15
guys should be there. But because of this crap, this
14:19
organization went with Jorge Polanco, Beau Bichette, who
14:24
doesn't even know what his position is, and Simeons who's
14:28
an old man walking. Congratulations to the New York
14:31
Mets and David Sterns. What a debacle.
14:34
They're trying to patch together a bunch of flashy names and it
14:37
just didn't work for a formula that is ideal.
14:40
And when five of your guys that are you brought in or not
14:43
hitting addition to Lindor and Soto having structures where
14:45
they were hurt this year, it really creates a bad formula and
14:48
it creates a culture that is not going to bode well for a lot of
14:51
these younger players. And we talked about it on
14:52
Monday. Mauricio is already hurt now, so
14:54
he's not even get his reps Brett Beatty's been up and down
14:57
throughout this year. And I think a lot of those
14:59
younger players have just lost confidence in this lineup on a
15:02
team that should not be. This is bad on offense.
15:06
They they should have been a top five offense on paper and
15:08
they're not. And the fact that they could
15:10
barely beat the Rockies in these sentences too.
15:12
They're one of the, as Jeff would say, poverty franchises in
15:15
baseball, probably along with the White Sox and the Angels.
15:18
And you can't even beat them except two out of.
15:19
Three, I want to answer this too for all the Met fans, it said.
15:22
Oh, Pete. Pete Alonzo's bat speed has
15:25
slowed down 5 spots. Well, by the way, he was hitting
15:28
170 about two weeks ago. Now he's up to 25.
15:32
He's got seven home runs, 20 RBIs and 31 hits.
15:35
You know what that smells? That smells about 35 home runs
15:39
this year. There's a lot of baseball left
15:41
and 100 RBIs. So Mets fans keep crying, keep
15:45
saying that Pete Alonso's washed up and realize that you effed
15:48
up. You effed up.
15:50
That's it. It's kind of embarrassing.
15:52
Errol, you just had a a core that was good and all you had to
15:57
do is kind of fix like how the locker room was being run.
16:00
If that's the coach, they should have changed the coach.
16:03
They shouldn't have changed all the players.
16:06
They could have changed the locker room culture in different
16:09
ways. But they gave they got rid of
16:11
Nimmo Nimmo's hidden 300 in Texas.
16:15
He's had a little bit of a hamstring thing, but he's he
16:17
hasn't. Hit 41 hits, four home runs and
16:19
12 RBIs. He's a lead off hitter for them.
16:21
Imagine they had him hitting in front of Juan Soto.
16:24
He'd be leading the league in runs because Juan Soto's one of
16:27
the best players in the league. They just have no one that's at
16:29
the table. To the point, Errol, they led
16:31
off Juan Soto today. They let him off because they
16:35
got no one for him to drive in. Nobody.
16:39
It's embarrassing. It is.
16:41
David, let's move on to the rest of the league.
16:44
There was a wild thing that happened with the Tigers.
16:47
First off, you mentioned it in the what's that smell on Monday?
16:51
School Bulls down for a few months and his elbow cleaned
16:54
out. Obviously a horrendous loss
16:56
back-to-back Cy Young winner and that means he's not going to win
16:59
a third time in a row. Their big acquisition was
17:02
Franber Valdez who it was with Houston LED all of Major League
17:08
Baseball and wins since he came up in 2020 as a full time
17:12
starter from 2020 to 2025. Well he had one of the epic
17:17
meltdowns and it got suspended by the league for five games.
17:20
So he gave up a career high. Ten runs, 7 earned.
17:24
Gave up back-to-back homers to the Red Sox, Wilson Contreras
17:28
and William Abreu to start the 4th inning and then the next
17:31
pitch right into Trevor Stories back and obviously a bench is
17:36
cleared. No punches were thrown.
17:38
A Tigers manager, AJ Hinch, who we all know where he where the
17:43
scandals he's been involved in with the buzzers and knocking on
17:46
the trash cans. Also received a one game
17:49
suspension for Valdez. Action as his manager.
17:52
Valdez Obviously, the five games for a pitcher, that means you've
17:55
missed one start if you're a starting pitcher.
17:57
Pathetic. It's it's, it was six games
18:00
reduced to five. Because again, it's, it's
18:02
nonsense. It's just, you know, how it
18:04
works with the league. He denied intent that everyone
18:07
knows that it was intentional. Eric Hosmer, who we had on the
18:10
show about a year ago, he's, he had some video evidence that
18:14
showed that Valdez knew that they were kind of tipping his
18:19
pitches and Story was a little bit behind some of it.
18:22
So there may have been something there.
18:24
But Valdez suspended the Tigers, now without their two starters,
18:28
for the next week. And then obviously they're ace
18:31
for a very long time. It's getting late early in
18:34
Detroit. Here's the facts, guys.
18:36
If Trevor Bauer did it, he'd be thrown out of the league.
18:39
If Trevor Bauer threw at somebody and he did this and had
18:42
a meltdown, he's out of the league.
18:43
Look what the look what baseball did.
18:45
Look what? Look what the Cleveland
18:47
Guardians did to him. He threw the ball over, over the
18:50
the back, the outfield wall and in two days he was traded to
18:54
Cincinnati. But this guy throws it and
18:56
almost kills Trevor Story and and oh, he just gets suspended
19:00
for one game. That's it.
19:02
It's over. Oh, he's got to calm down.
19:04
He's got to figure things out. This is the problem right now.
19:07
When you don't like somebody, they they throw him out.
19:10
They they say they get rid of him.
19:11
He's garbage. He's done.
19:13
We don't want him anymore. But when somebody like Framber
19:15
Valdez does it, oh, it's OK. You know, we're going to we're
19:19
going to cut it down from 6 to 5 so he only misses one game.
19:22
It's pathetic. Baseball needs to figure out how
19:25
to control players. These guys have a bowl in their
19:28
hands going 100 mph. It can kill somebody.
19:31
It can kill somebody if it hits him in the head and he's it's
19:35
OK. It's OK.
19:36
I mean, he just hit him in the back.
19:38
This is baseball. Yeah.
19:39
OK. Nobody throws 100.
19:41
How many guys throw 100 mph? In the olden days, 60s and the
19:44
50s, they were throwing like 85 mile per hour fastballs.
19:47
Now they're throwing a hundred, 102.
19:49
And it's OK. I mean that that ball is like a
19:52
bat and it's hitting you right in the face.
19:55
We all know what happened to David Wright.
19:58
Plenty of it and you have a case.
20:00
Of Giancarlo Stan. Remember that?
20:02
Oh yeah, with the Brewers, Yeah, they had to get the whole
20:04
modified helmet just because of. That even David Wright won the
20:07
one. The ones that created that
20:08
modified. Yeah, Stan kinda, I think
20:10
popularized it a little more, but but again, yeah, David
20:12
Wright, definitely, that was a bad case of it, too.
20:14
And yeah, this is the problem with the MLB suspensions.
20:16
Yeah, OK, it's six games for anyone else, but it's only one
20:19
start for a guy that's a starting pitcher that only
20:21
pitches every four or five days, six days of an off day.
20:24
And yeah, that basically sums up that.
20:27
All right. Oh, cool.
20:27
You missed one start. Yeah.
20:28
All right, we can still replace you anyway, even with school
20:30
ball hurt. Yeah, I guess school being hurt.
20:32
And like we talked about earlier, Fish Joe being hurt.
20:34
Maybe it might hurt the Tigers more than some other teams, but
20:37
still, the precedent has to be there for not to be able to just
20:40
defend a pitcher just because it's starting pitcher.
20:41
Oh, you get the same amount of games what anyone else would
20:43
have. Here's the problem, too.
20:44
Detroit is an organization that does this year in and year out.
20:49
This isn't the first time Detroit has done something like
20:52
this and gotten away with it. This has been going on for a
20:54
while. And and again, they're an
20:57
organization that hire guys that shouldn't be rehired.
21:00
And I like AJ Hinge, but we all know he cheated.
21:03
He screwed the Yankees. He screwed baseball and
21:06
everybody. By the way, Carlos Beltran, did
21:08
he ever get a management job ever again after that?
21:11
No, Cora did. Alex.
21:14
Cora did. But Beltran and Cora were
21:16
involved with that, too. Why doesn't Carlos Beltran have
21:20
a job? Why does he have a job?
21:23
I rest my case. I rest my case.
21:26
Thank you. Sell that.
21:28
Roll it off. Stick it.
21:29
Let's move on to the next topic here, and the next topic is
21:35
something that I wanted to bring up.
21:37
Oh I like this. Mason Miller, closer for the
21:41
Padres. You were mentioning guys
21:42
throwing 100. This guy averages 101 per pitch
21:49
on his fastball. It's number one in the league.
21:52
He has been a level of untouchable that we have not
21:55
seen. And I wanted to bring up the the
21:58
relief pitch season that always stuck out to me, which was when
22:03
Eric Gonyea won the Cy Young in 2003.
22:05
Was on all sorts of steroids that year.
22:08
Had 55 saves. Struck out like a an ungodly
22:12
amount of players. It says here he had 1-2 ERA, 137
22:17
KS and 82 innings. Well, if you think that's good,
22:21
Mason Miller is dwarfing those numbers so far this season.
22:27
He's increased his slider usage to about 53% of the time, which
22:31
has made his fast while even more effective.
22:33
Listen to this speedy The WIFF rate 55.9% wiff rate on Mason
22:40
Miller pitches, which is by far the highest in the league.
22:44
He is Some of his numbers are just stupid and I wanted to show
22:47
you his advanced metrics page. I show you this sometimes as red
22:51
is good and blue is bad. Look at how there is nothing but
22:56
red and it says 100 next to it. That means he is the best in the
23:00
league at expected ERA. Expected opponent.
23:03
Batting average under 100. People are expected to bat
23:07
against Mason Miller. He's that good.
23:09
Fastball velocity, like I said, 101.
23:11
Exit velocity is usually really high.
23:13
When a guy throws hard, it's only 83.998 percentile.
23:18
He's the number one chase guy #1 wif guy #1K guy.
23:22
No one can hit him hard at all. 99% ground ball rate.
23:26
He is the best pitcher by far in Major League Baseball that we've
23:31
seen advanced statistically. And I couldn't even tell you but
23:36
the eye test. Errol, as you know, closer for
23:38
Team USA in the World Baseball Classic, and he's been dominant.
23:42
I mean, I think he's going to get MVP votes.
23:45
Gania finished sixth in the MVP this year, that year.
23:49
I think he may even go higher and he's a real threat for the
23:51
Cy Young. All right, He is a relief
23:54
pitcher for all the fans out there.
23:56
Relief pitchers come and they go.
23:58
He is not Mariano Rivera. He's doing this really, and it's
24:03
still early. It's an early season.
24:05
We're what are we 40 games in? And we're we're talking about
24:08
this here. I'm going to give you advanced
24:10
metrics. I'm going to give you
24:11
statistics. Cam Schlittler is five and one
24:14
with a 1.52 ERA, 53 strikeouts and a 0.87 WIP.
24:20
OK, this is a starting pitcher doing these numbers.
24:24
I would look at this more than look at Mason Miller.
24:27
And here's another thing, I, I want to give you guys something
24:30
else that you guys don't understand.
24:33
When you look at the league and I, I had Trevor Bauer actually
24:36
bring up Mason Miller. He says I could be Mason Miller
24:38
right now and I'm still not going to be able to come back
24:42
into the major leagues because I'm being blue balled or
24:44
whatever. Blue.
24:46
Balled blue balled. OK.
24:48
All right. I don't think it's blue balled
24:51
as Manfred was a little. OK, the fact here is if I'm
24:57
looking at this and I'm I'm I'm looking at a relief pitcher, I'm
24:59
not putting him in the sigh younger MVP.
25:02
He's a relief pitcher. That's great.
25:04
His numbers are great. It's it's Ganye Mariano esque.
25:08
Do it in the playoffs. Let's see you do it in the
25:10
playoffs. Do it at a high level, because
25:13
we see guys like this. We see Ganye do this in the
25:15
regular season and we also see Kanye do it in the playoffs.
25:19
So I don't care. You good.
25:22
Good for him. And by the way, he was the the
25:24
closer for Team USA. My question to you is, did Team
25:28
USA win the World Baseball Classic?
25:32
The answer is no. So if they trusted him so much,
25:36
he should have came in in the 8th inning or the 7th inning and
25:38
he should have closed him out. That's all I'm saying.
25:40
I, I think it, I don't want to hear about these advanced
25:43
metrics. I could care less.
25:44
Yeah, it was questionable at the time when the Padres gave up the
25:47
number 3 prospect at all of baseball to to Oakland at the
25:50
time or Sacramento A's at the time to get that kind of thing.
25:53
The Padres obviously they have always had a good system with
25:55
the bullpen, but never to this extreme level.
25:58
And Fish, you're right, it's definitely something we haven't
26:00
seen in a small sample that what that much since Rivera Emmanuel
26:04
class. I tried to do it I think in
26:05
20/22 he had it I think up up until June, but then he had a
26:09
couple bad months in July and then his ARA dipped under one.
26:12
But the whiff rate is something that you brought up.
26:14
This is something that is very prevalent, I think in a
26:17
strikeout game now and especially with these younger
26:20
hitters being developed that way.
26:22
And that's something that I think that can be sustainable.
26:24
But it also voids, like I will say voids for the home rum ball
26:27
in the playoffs too, if he tries to be too heavy on the.
26:29
Strike. And here's the thing.
26:30
I'm not putting a relief pitcher anywhere close to the MVP or Cy
26:33
Young unless there's not enough starting pitching that can
26:36
compete with that. And I just gave you Cam
26:37
Schlittler, who is a starting pitcher.
26:39
In the American the AL though in the yeah, I wrestled
26:43
international. More power in the American
26:46
League and this guy is striking out everybody and doing it at a
26:50
high rate and he has a WHIP under 0.87 as a starting
26:53
pitcher. As a starting pitcher, so.
26:56
I'm not trying to compare the two.
26:58
I agree the. Starting pitcher.
26:59
Is more important than a closer every single time.
27:02
So for winning, So what? I'm just saying what I'm saying.
27:05
Mason Miller's stuff is the best we've ever seen.
27:08
It's one year, it's one year and it's a couple of months.
27:11
Let's see him do it all season long and I'm not betting on
27:15
that. I'm saying that I'm looking at
27:17
starting pitches. There are much better starting
27:19
pitches right now that I'm going to pick as society.
27:21
I would take hitters right now. There should be any, no
27:24
comparison to MVP or Cy Young to a relief pitcher unless you do
27:28
Mariano Rivera things in the playoffs.
27:30
I want to see him do it in. I know it's a regular season
27:32
thing, but I want to see him do it in the playoffs.
27:35
If I'm going to consider him a world renowned and I don't think
27:39
he can do it. And we've seen Padre pitchers do
27:41
it here in and here out and completely full flat on their
27:44
face. So good for Mason Miller.
27:46
Congratulations on a great two or three months of baseball.
27:49
Let's see you do it in the playoffs.
27:51
That's all I'm going to say about that.
27:52
The analytics, the crap. I could care less.
27:56
I could see a top five and Cy Young easy from him, just from
28:02
the National League. So who's in the National League?
28:04
Skeens obviously is the front runner.
28:06
You got Yamamoto, you never know, full season with the
28:09
Japanese pitchers there on a six day rotation over there.
28:13
Chris Sale, not always healthy. Shohei Otani, Errol, you know
28:16
the story with him. And then Christopher Sanchez,
28:18
who was the runner up last year. After that, it's a bunch of
28:21
young guys like Mizarowski and Burns and Nolan McClain that are
28:25
the next best odds. I would put Mason Miller above
28:28
those three guys and that would make him a top five Cy Young
28:32
candidate. Congratulations.
28:33
Congratulations as a closer. As a closer.
28:36
It's an impressive feat, bro. It's impressive.
28:38
Something to keep an eye on. That's all.
28:40
Let's move on to the American League stinks.
28:44
My God, does the American League stink.
28:47
Let's take a look at the standings as of right now, and I
28:51
add it to the screen and just let you see at the Yankees and
28:55
the Rays are doing great. They're both over a dozen games
28:58
over 500. But then if you look at the rest
29:01
of it, the A's just won and put themselves one game over 500.
29:05
The Guardians won today and they went over 500.
29:08
But before those two games, the Rays and the Yankees were the
29:11
only teams over 500 in the entire American League 1/4 of
29:16
the way into the season or 38 or whatever games.
29:18
It is unbelievable kind of sucking this.
29:22
And if it's just you think it's they've been playing each other,
29:24
it's balancing outlook at the run differentials over here,
29:27
Speedy, you notice a lot of red. The Yankees very impressive.
29:32
The Rays actually not that impressive.
29:33
It says they're overachieving. Well, they're the Rays.
29:35
That's what they do, but then it's a bunch of red.
29:38
The Tigers, we just saw what happened to them.
29:40
They're not going to be going getting better anytime soon.
29:43
They're the only team in the Central with a positive
29:45
differential and the Mariners with the only team over there.
29:49
It's the entire American League is garbage this year.
29:52
Errol garbage. All right, you're looking at
29:55
numbers. It's still very early.
29:57
There's a lot of baseball left and I've seen teams in the
29:59
second-half really explode off the paper.
30:02
I look at the American League. I still think the American
30:06
League East is a lot better than it says right now.
30:09
The Blue Jays are 16 and 21. I think they're much better than
30:11
they are and I think the Orioles are better than 17 and 21.
30:15
I think they're going to be better in the second-half.
30:17
They've got a tremendous team. They're pitching.
30:19
There's a lot of questions there.
30:21
The Guardians are always a second-half team.
30:23
I think they're going to drop out a little bit.
30:26
I could see the Royals picking up the pace in the second-half.
30:29
They're a lot better than they shown and the American League
30:33
West. I think this is a very talented
30:36
division. The fact right now the Athletics
30:38
are leading and they're 19 and 18.
30:40
The Mariners are much better than their record shows, The
30:42
Rangers are much better than the record shows and the Astros are
30:46
a lot better than the record shows.
30:47
So relax, It is so very early. It's 162 games in a season.
30:54
Things change quarterly. So stop.
30:56
I, I, I fine. You want to look at numbers and
30:58
you want to say the National League's better.
31:00
We'll see what happens in the All Star game.
31:01
Watch the American League wins. Who cares?
31:04
Who cares? We'll see what they do in the
31:05
second-half. Yeah, I I trust more in the AL
31:08
Central teams, I think to get it going a little more than the AL
31:10
West. I think Seattle is a good team
31:12
that you could still trust. The Astros can hit, but they
31:14
can't pitch. It's a very extreme year.
31:16
For the Rangers, a lot better than.
31:17
The Rangers. The Rangers are interesting.
31:18
I think it's just a matter of like them getting their younger
31:22
guys going and same thing with a lot of these teams like they
31:24
have good veteran pieces there. It's just a matter they're
31:27
pitching systems always been good.
31:29
But the central you look at Fisher you're talking about with
31:31
the Royals, they're looking good on paper right now.
31:33
Can they get it going on offense?
31:34
It'll be a bigger question, but they got hot a little bit
31:36
lately. Cleveland Arrow, you've
31:38
mentioned all the time, good second-half team that you can
31:40
definitely see make some noise. I don't know if I trust anyone
31:42
else in that division right now. And then in the American League,
31:44
you got, you got to think somebody else could emerge at
31:46
your division usually has three teams that are right on that
31:49
cluster with the auras, get enough pitching maybe with all
31:51
the X Mets that they brought in, definitely a possibility.
31:54
The Red Sox, they turn it around nicely since getting rid of
31:56
Cora, maybe they keep it up. We'll see.
31:58
And the Blue Jays, you can't get them out as much as I like to
32:00
think they're kind of fraudulent.
32:01
They went to World Series. Last, and by the way, when you
32:03
look at the National League, the Nationals are 18 and 20 Phillies
32:08
who are expected to be a good team.
32:10
They're 17 and 21. The Marlins is 17 and 21.
32:12
The Mets that's supposed to make the playoffs this year, a lot of
32:14
people thought are 14 and 23. Yes, the National League Central
32:19
is good on paper. This isn't going to stay like
32:21
you think. The Pirates are going to stay at
32:23
21 and 17 without the good luck. The Cardinals?
32:26
No way. The Cubs are a good team.
32:28
The Brewers are better than they are.
32:30
The Reds might. Pick up the Brewers heat up at
32:32
June last year, remember? And, and as far as I'm concerned
32:34
in that in the Dodgers division, the Dodgers, Padres, I think
32:39
Padres are not as good as their record shows.
32:41
The Rockies stink, the Giants stink.
32:43
The Diamondbacks are a lot better than 17 and 19.
32:45
They're not much better guys. They're really not.
32:49
It only shows right now by the way these teams are playing
32:52
early in the season. I'm telling you, it's going to
32:55
change. Bet on.
32:58
It well, here's some ways that things that won't help some of
33:01
these changes very talked about Dominguez's injury.
33:04
Roman Anthony Red Sox it's not going to get better for the Red
33:08
Sox. We already talked about how it
33:10
is. The wheels are already falling
33:11
off Roman Anthony, it's the IL. Go round and round.
33:15
Round not in Baston right now they're their wheels are falling
33:18
off. They need a whole bunch of
33:19
Duncan to get fueled up over there pass liquor.
33:23
It's going to be tough. Tyler Glass now shocker got hurt
33:27
warming up for the second inning lower back pain.
33:31
We'll see what the MRI says. Forget.
33:33
Daily lives. Glaber Torres, They haven't said
33:36
what happened, but he's on the ill.
33:39
Anyone. Here's the Here's the best 1,
33:42
though. Errol, did you see Cubs pitcher
33:44
Matthew Boyd? Yep, he gets down playing with
33:47
his kids, tries to get up and tears his meniscus.
33:50
He's out six weeks. Very Aaron Boone like, by the
33:53
way, very Aaron Boone like. If you remember what happened,
33:56
Aaron Boone, he hits that unbelievable home run that sends
33:59
the Yankees to the World Series and then the next offseason he's
34:03
playing basketball. He turns his knee and he misses
34:07
the practically the season here. Here's the facts.
34:12
Why are these teams, they letting these players do the
34:16
things that they're doing offset?
34:17
They're making millions and millions of dollars.
34:19
They're playing professional baseball.
34:21
They need to have these players watched if they're doing things
34:25
with their, their, their son, their daughter or whatever
34:28
they're doing and they're, they're off time, they have to
34:31
be careful. There's too much money invested
34:33
into these players. It's an investment.
34:35
It's horrible when you see this because again, that's why the
34:38
WBC, remember the WBC with the insurance policies and a lot of
34:42
the Puerto Ricans and Dominicans couldn't play because there has
34:45
to be insurance policies. These players should have their
34:48
own insurance policies if they get hurt off the field.
34:51
They shouldn't the the team should not be paying for it.
34:54
That's my opinion. Yeah, it's it's always tough
34:57
what you deal with somebody like fluky like that.
34:59
But yeah, there's always going to be some weird examples.
35:01
One of which was a Co host on our show last year that had a
35:04
trampoline incident and there are plenty of others.
35:06
Kendra Morales celebrating a walk off.
35:09
Jabba, remember that? That's what I said.
35:11
I come home so used to be on our show last year to trampoline.
35:13
Yeah, yeah. Cadrey Morales, Troy Tulowitzki,
35:17
I think Cadwell where he like broke his hand punching a wall
35:19
or something. Like there's always some like
35:21
crazy ones that happen. So for a guy like Boyd, who's
35:24
been injury pro in his career, that's definitely one of the
35:25
definitely one of the weirder ones you've seen.
35:27
And Roman Anthony, like you said, fish, the Red Sox, they're
35:30
looking for a spark with their young guys.
35:32
Definitely not ideal for that. Somebody else is going to have
35:34
to take loans. Maybe somebody like Campbell
35:35
that doesn't play as much, we'll say.
35:39
Wasn't there a famous pitcher that like tried to iron his
35:41
jersey while he was wearing it or something like that and
35:43
burned himself? Oh fish, here's the best one of
35:47
all. I forgot Joel Zumaya played
35:49
Guitar Hero. That's right, he was like in the
35:52
100 mile an hour fastball guy before.
35:54
People really want it. And he had a Guitar Hero injury.
35:58
That's pretty bad. Talk about some guys that are
36:00
coming back soon though. Garrett Cole made his fourth
36:04
rehab start on May 5th. Rodan made a rehab start.
36:07
They both didn't look great in that rehab start.
36:09
They both gave up six runs. But as you know on their way
36:12
back, Blake Snell seems to is going to be back soon as well.
36:17
For the Dodgers, they just lose glass now they get Snell back.
36:20
Dodgers just get the rich, keep getting richer.
36:23
As far as the Mets go, looks like we had Minter have a set
36:28
back over there. So the bullpen.
36:31
No relief coming. Don't worry about Garrett Cole,
36:35
Don't worry. Worry about Rodon.
36:37
They're going to be added to an absolute dominant pitching
36:41
staff. They'll get their feet wet and
36:42
they'll be fine. For all the fans out there,
36:45
they're going to be fine. I don't care what they do in
36:47
AAA, everybody was like Lucas Spencer Jones, you striking out,
36:50
you doing news. The major leagues are different.
36:53
It's it's different. They're going to throw harder.
36:55
They're going to play at a high, higher level.
36:57
That's what always happens. Don't worry about Garrett Cole,
37:00
don't worry about Rodon. You got Mr. Schlittler
37:03
dominating, Max Freed dominating.
37:06
Besides Will Warren yesterday, he is dominating.
37:10
You got a pitching staff that is fully loaded and ready to go.
37:13
And by the way, now you can move Weathers and all the other
37:18
pitchers to the bullpen and boost up your bullpen, which is
37:22
pretty damn good right now too. So good luck, American League,
37:26
and good luck to baseball. The Yankees are coming.
37:29
Yeah, it's it's Rodon is one that's fish.
37:32
You mentioned he struggled in his last start.
37:34
I saw Brian Hoke, guest of the show, was saying that he could
37:37
return as soon as next week, which doesn't seem ideal for
37:40
that kind of thing if you're just struggling.
37:41
I know what you're talking about.
37:42
Rodon Yeah, yeah, I think you're better off waiting longer.
37:45
I mean, it's fine. Like you said, they have enough
37:47
versatility. They could pitch weathers a
37:49
little bit more. You, Elma Rodriguez, could go
37:51
another start, even maybe Carlos.
37:53
They're going to move Elma Rodriguez to the bullpen and
37:55
he'll be an eighth inning guy. He's throwing on.
37:57
If he's moved to the bullpen, he's going to throw 100 and 203.
38:00
Good luck trying to hit that. I mean, the Yankees are loaded.
38:05
This is probably the best pitching staff the Yankees have
38:08
had since 1998. That's how good this pitching
38:11
staff is. Do you remember that pitching
38:12
staff it this is a great pitching staff and it's just
38:16
getting better and better when you look at the names that are
38:18
coming in and we haven't even seen Schmidt.
38:20
Schmidt won't be back until the All Star break.
38:22
And he's another one, too, like Weathers, that can be a hybrid
38:25
starter reliever, too. So it's ridiculous postseason.
38:27
If you get everyone healthy, you're going to have a lot of
38:29
versatility. To and they got a pitcher that's
38:32
pitching very well, well in AAA right now who could be called up
38:35
at some point this year as well. So good luck to everybody out
38:39
there. Yeah, not to mention Frida's
38:41
been lights out like like we all expected him to be.
38:44
I mentioned him. I mentioned.
38:45
Him let's let's, let's finish this up right here.
38:49
Actually, that's it, right. That's it for inside baseball.
38:52
We'll come back in a little bit. We got a brand new segment
38:55
though coming up, Beryl. Yes, for all the fans out there,
38:58
there's a lot of special things that happen during the years and
39:01
and certain days. And we have a new segment called
39:05
On This Day. And now what we're going to do
39:08
right here is go back, way back, back into time.
39:12
It's time for On This Day. On this Day.
39:17
All right, welcome to On THIS DAY.
39:20
Some of you might know I've been a history teacher for a long
39:23
time. I wanted to bring some of that
39:25
into the show. I got a bunch of great sports
39:28
events that happened On this date in history, so let's get
39:33
into it. We got the Knicks defeating the
39:37
Lakers in Game 7 to win their first ever NBA title.
39:42
This is the Willis Reed hobbled game, Babe Ruth's first ever
39:46
Homer, the first female Philly Kentucky Derby winner, The Randy
39:52
Johnson 20 strikeout game back in 2001 on that Diamondbacks
39:57
team that eventually beat the Yankees in seven.
40:00
Which one of the worst moments I remember as a kid and The
40:03
Wailers moved? To Carolina in 1997.
40:09
Errol and obscure one always have an obscure 1.
40:14
Rodger Bannister. Do you know that name?
40:16
Of course from history. What is he famous for doing on
40:19
this day? Speedy I give.
40:22
I remember Rodger Bannister, but I don't.
40:24
Remember, speedy is a good clue. The word speedy is a good clue
40:28
for Rodger Bannister. Is it something with the Cubs?
40:31
I don't know Rodger Bannister. I don't know what is it.
40:34
Rodger Bannister is the first person to run a sub 4 minute
40:38
mile in 1954. I remember the Hartford Whalers,
40:44
by the way, I remember that I actually rooted for the Hartford
40:48
Whalers. They had one of my favorite
40:49
goalies growing up on, on the Hartford Whalers when they moved
40:52
them to Carolina. And I also remember the Yankees,
40:56
Gonzalez remember that. So I remember all those things.
40:59
It made me sick to my stomach. And I wasn't alive for Willis
41:02
Reed's hobble game. So 1973, That's a little pissed,
41:05
my tongue. Well, the Knicks are trying to
41:07
define that this year to get their own variations of it with
41:10
this current core. It's we talked about OG, I know
41:13
we injury earlier and the Knicks have had to play through a lot
41:16
of guys hurt in the past and going to the Randy Johnson one,
41:19
the Randy Johnson 20 strikeouts is something that is very hard
41:22
to do and any era baseball. Nevertheless, doing it in
41:25
today's game where there's a lot of hitters that are a lot better
41:28
now than they were in the past, more of a power game.
41:31
And at that time you're dealing with a steroid era too.
41:33
So it's especially even harder to do it then as well.
41:35
And he said, Roger Bannister, a 4 minute mile, that's very hard
41:38
to do. Remember, I remember it now.
41:41
It took a little while to remember that.
41:43
Yeah, it's. Hard enough for a lot of a lot
41:45
of, I'm sure you guys obviously be more athletic running the
41:48
mile in high school, definitely. Well, I loved Michael Johnson.
41:52
Watching Michael Johnson run those years and had a dominant
41:55
level and everybody says he did steroids.
41:58
There's a lot of them did steroids, but Michael Johnson
42:00
was one of my favorite runners growing up.
42:02
So I don't think he was ever caught, though I thought he was
42:04
in a scandal, but I don't think he.
42:05
Was caught. I think he was in the balco.
42:07
Oh, OK. I think he was in the BALCO.
42:09
Years later, they kind of brought him down and everyone
42:12
kind of like Pooh Poohed. A lot of the stuff he did that
42:15
Randy Johnson season, it was him and shilling on that team.
42:18
I remember watching it, Errol, it was just like, what are you
42:22
supposed to do against those guys?
42:24
And then they started pitching them both on three days rest in
42:26
the playoffs. That's why they won that World
42:28
Series, beat that great Yankees team.
42:30
I grew up on stories of that Willis Reed comeback.
42:34
We've all seen, you know, hobbling back on the court.
42:36
But really, the story of that game was Walt Clive Frazier
42:40
putting up 36 and 19 to win that, to win Game 7, for the
42:45
Knicks, to win the world. By the way, Willis Reed is the
42:48
only New York Knick that's won an MVP.
42:51
Just so you know. Only.
42:55
You think where you think Brunson's going to finish this
42:57
year in the MVP voting. 7th or 8th look what?
43:00
Look what they did to OG and Nanobi as defensive player of
43:02
the year. It made no sense.
43:03
The 10th best defensive player in the league?
43:05
Get out of here. What a joke.
43:07
Best wing defender all season long when you look at analytics.
43:12
So to, to rate him at 10, it just shows you it's a it's, it's
43:16
not what, what, what do you call the speedy?
43:18
What do we call these with these awards?
43:20
It's a popularity contest. That's what it is.
43:23
It's a popularity contest. SGA is going to win the MVP
43:27
because it's a popularity contest, not because he's the
43:29
best player. Because it's a popularity.
43:31
Contest I just want to ask one one thing with the horse you
43:33
said it was the first female horse or the.
43:36
Yeah, the first Philly Derby winner.
43:38
Her name was Regret. Can't make that up about the
43:42
female horse winner. And the last little fun fact?
43:46
Guess who? Babe Ruth as a Red Sox hit his
43:50
first career home run against none other the Yankees, then the
43:55
New York Yankees. This has been on this day.
44:00
I like the Back to the Future Music that that it's one of my
44:03
favorite movies. I I'm a big Michael J Fox fan.
44:07
Life with Mikey and I met Michael J Fox.
44:09
My cousins took care of his kids out in the Hamptons.
44:13
So I love Michael J Fox and and I know he's dealing with
44:17
Parkinson's. So if if Michael J ever wants to
44:20
come on the show and talk about Back to the future, we would
44:22
love to get him a Teen Wolf. Love the Teen Wolf movie.
44:25
I love everything about Michael J Fox Doc Holiday.
44:28
Remember that? I mean Doc Hollywood, Hollywood,
44:31
Hollywood. Hollywood, yes, the Back to the
44:33
Future ride at Universal Studios.
44:35
I was like obsessed with it as a kid.
44:37
When we ever went to Florida, I didn't want to go to Disney.
44:40
I wanted to go to Universal to go on the Back to the Future
44:42
ride. I love, I love Michael J Fox, so
44:46
hopefully everything's going well and his son looks just like
44:48
him, speaks just like him. It's crazy.
44:50
Anyways, when we and he also dated Taylor Swift, I don't know
44:54
if anybody knows that Michael J Fox really.
44:56
She actually wrote 2 songs about Michael J Fox's son and Michael
45:02
J Fox. He was really upset about it and
45:06
Michael J Fox was the one that told Taylor Swift do not write a
45:09
song about my son and she did. So anyways, that's a whole
45:11
nother story. I don't want to throw things out
45:13
there, but you could check it out if you want.
45:15
If you think I'm lying about it, it's true.
45:17
Thank you. We have a new producer.
45:19
He's going to be joining us. He's getting to know who we are.
45:22
Sam ad he's right there in the corner.
45:24
We really appreciate him joining us and and he's going to be
45:26
working with us on so many things on the back end and the
45:29
front end of the stuff. So we think everybody that tunes
45:32
in to us on every single profile, I never thank anybody
45:36
on Roku. And somebody actually reached
45:38
out to me the other day and says I watch your show on Roku all
45:41
the time. And I said, so I'm going to
45:44
thank all the people that are tuned in on Roku watching our
45:47
show, interacting. If we can't see you, I
45:50
apologize. We can't see you.
45:52
And there's another stupid thing Fish is posting up.
45:54
Shout out to the Roku nation. Maybe yes, thank you to all the
45:59
Spotify and Apple fans on video and audio, all the downloads,
46:04
all the views, all the videos and all the other stuff.
46:08
Thank you to the TikTok, Instagram and X fans, New York
46:12
sports loudmouth, YouTube, our YouTube fans and we are that we
46:16
have a couple of them on still on.
46:17
It's crazy. We do our show from 7:00 to
46:20
11:00. It's it's, it's a long one, but
46:22
I will say this, this is like the prime time for sports and,
46:26
and a lot of guys go in and out. It's it's not easy.
46:28
We're not doing prime time for radio shows.
46:31
We're doing prime time for sports and, and, and people are
46:34
sitting there and watching our show throughout the show.
46:36
So everybody that tunes. And by the way, after we're
46:39
live, we take the video off. So you cannot watch it on our
46:43
YouTube channel, the full video. So the only way you can see it
46:46
is on Spotify and Apple. So I, I want to let all the fans
46:50
know that we do not keep it. We only do with this live on
46:52
video. So you can watch us when you're
46:54
interacting and you can interact, you know, during our
46:57
live events. But we really appreciate all the
47:00
fans. Sweetie, who do we have on
47:02
Monday? And.
47:02
Thursday, joining at 8:20 on Monday, Mr. Invincible, Vince
47:05
Papale, the first undrafted free agent, the first player in the
47:09
NFL history, did not play college football.
47:11
He'll join us at 8:20. And then on Thursday, Greg Oden,
47:14
former NBA player and was saying some of the directors of his new
47:18
movie as well. Yes, and, and I've been
47:20
following Greg and he's doing some things and he has a
47:23
clothing line. He's doing all these crazy
47:25
things and Greg was expected to be one of the better big men
47:30
when he was drafted by the Trail Blazers.
47:32
Obviously it didn't happen that way.
47:35
He had problems with his leg and his feet and all that other
47:38
stuff. So we all know the background of
47:39
Greg Odin's story and the guy that was drafted right behind
47:42
him, Kevin Durant. So we know his career and Hall
47:46
of Fame career. So I'm excited about that.
47:48
I've never interviewed Greg Odin.
47:50
I have Vince Popoli, but I I know Vince.
47:53
I met him in Miami. Very nice guy, this guy, great
47:56
stories. I think everybody will enjoy his
47:58
storytelling. And if you've never seen the
48:01
movie Invincible, Mark Wahlberg, great, great, great movie.
48:05
Disney movie. Anyways, that's it for a show,
48:07
ladies and gentlemen. Hopefully you don't use any
48:10
paddles like Bill Simmons did when he was a kid and don't
48:14
smack each other. And you know what?
48:15
Good night, good night. Worldwide Sports radio network.
48:18
Radio Network.
