- 0:50Speaker 5: lot of different times, I was gonna roll with the heroes,
- 0:53Speaker 5: the men and women that gave the ultimate sacrifice and
- 0:55Speaker 5: allowed us to make this a Tuesday that feels like
- 0:58Speaker 5: a Monday. Indeed, of the vets, honor those that have fallen.
- 1:01Speaker 5: We have Veterans' Day. We have a lot of different days.
- 1:04Speaker 5: Yesterday is special to remember those that sadly never came home.
- 1:08Speaker 5: I had a quick moment last night where my little
- 1:12Speaker 5: guy decided that my singing was not good. However, he
- 1:15Speaker 5: wanted me to do the Brewers lineup and then sing
- 1:17Speaker 5: the national anthem.
- 1:20Speaker 2: Yeah, and it just caught.
- 1:21Speaker 5: It caught me as he fell asleep, and I'm holding
- 1:23Speaker 5: my three year old that sadly, that song is one
- 1:26Speaker 5: of the final remembrances that a lot of people have
- 1:28Speaker 5: of their son and daughter right and to pay the
- 1:32Speaker 5: ultimate sacrifice and allow us to live in this country.
- 1:35Speaker 5: It's not perfect, no doubt about it. However, it's ours
- 1:38Speaker 5: and we are allowed these lifes and liberties and a
- 1:42Speaker 5: day to enjoy the barbecue because of those that sadly
- 1:44Speaker 5: can't make it. So yesterday honored those and then luckily
- 1:48Speaker 5: enough to be able to celebrate them today with our
- 1:50Speaker 5: Current Electric superhero of the day, Current Electric our superheroes
- 1:54Speaker 5: walking amongst us. There are a lot of heroes though
- 1:56Speaker 5: that sadly can't walk amongst us, because they give us
- 1:59Speaker 5: the opportunity to, you know, get a home generator from
- 2:02Speaker 5: Current Electric, or go to call Current dot com and
- 2:04Speaker 5: check out that outdoor lighting package. Cuz if you want
- 2:07Speaker 5: to save one hundred and fifty bucks, you got to

- 2:11Speaker 5: Callcurrent dot com. Their superheroes are always out standing by.
- 2:14Speaker 2: Well, said Billy.
- 2:15Speaker 6: Well, said Billy, A reminder of yesterday is why we
- 2:18Speaker 6: get to enjoy the time we can. Also, it was
- 2:22Speaker 6: someone to remember and kind of a kicking the balls
- 2:24Speaker 6: to see Brewer great Charlie Moore passing away.
- 2:27Speaker 2: A fan favorite yes of the A two team.
- 2:29Speaker 6: Obviously made the big throw in Game five to kind
- 2:31Speaker 6: of change momentum when he cut down Reggie Jackson third,
- 2:35Speaker 6: but overall just a fan favorite of those teams. Charlie Moore,
- 2:38Speaker 6: guy that a lot of Brewers fans remember, a lot
- 2:40Speaker 6: of a lot of great defensive plays. Stuck with the
- 2:43Speaker 6: Brewers through a long time. Started as a catcher, moved
- 2:45Speaker 6: to the outfield when they brought Ted Simmons aboard.
- 2:48Speaker 2: So that was sad to see. Rest in peace, Charlie Moore.
- 2:50Speaker 6: I was glad to see he was still able to
- 2:52Speaker 6: be part of the documentary experience when they did Just
- 2:55Speaker 6: a Bit Outside, had some really good insights during that
- 2:59Speaker 6: I enjoyed that so.
- 3:00Speaker 4: Very nice gentleman. He's from He's in the Alabama Athletic
- 3:03Speaker 4: Hall of Fame. And I had less contact like I'd
- 3:07Speaker 4: gotten to know over the years, you know, Jim Gantner
- 3:10Speaker 4: and Gorman Thomas and you know guys like that Robin Yell. Sure,
- 3:15Speaker 4: I had less contact with Charlie Moore, but every time
- 3:17Speaker 4: I met he's a delightful gentleman.
- 3:19Speaker 2: It's a delightful guy there. And his teammates loved Charlie.
- 3:23Speaker 5: And that's that's it drew right like it's it's the
- 3:26Speaker 5: ways that teammates talk about you after and there is
- 3:29Speaker 5: not one individual that had anything even close to negative
- 3:32Speaker 5: to say about Charlie Moore. That was a that was
- 3:34Speaker 5: a shocker. I was at the game on Sunday and
- 3:36Speaker 5: they held the moment of silence. I had not seen
- 3:38Speaker 5: it online. I don't know when it had surface or whatever,
- 3:41Speaker 5: and it just popped and there was an audible gasp
- 3:44Speaker 5: from the forty one thousand that had just found out
- 3:48Speaker 5: about it, and it was it was a very very
- 3:50Speaker 5: nice round of applause, even, you know what, from the
- 3:53Speaker 5: from the large amounts of Dodger faithful they also were
- 3:56Speaker 5: standing and given an odd to to Charlie wore.
- 3:59Speaker 2: That's a sad moment there.
- 4:01Speaker 6: I think you think of him as a role player,
- 4:03Speaker 6: and he was. But he played a long time in
- 4:05Speaker 6: the major leagues. He played parts of fourteen fifteen years
- 4:08Speaker 6: mostly with the Brewers.
- 4:09Speaker 2: Had his final year with Toronto and.
- 4:11Speaker 6: Really interesting he fought his way back to Toronto to
- 4:15Speaker 6: the big club his final a year after being in
- 4:16Speaker 6: single A for a while that year.
- 4:18Speaker 2: So that was you know, that was interesting to read.
- 4:21Speaker 6: And he came up as a twenty year old, so
- 4:23Speaker 6: obviously a good player, role player.
- 4:25Speaker 2: He came up at twenty and then never went back.
- 4:27Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, that's a lot of guys would love
- 4:30Speaker 6: to have a career like that in a moment in time.
- 4:32Speaker 6: That a moment for history that Brewers fans will always
- 4:34Speaker 6: remember with that big throw.
- 4:35Speaker 4: So Charlie Moore turned down a scholarship to play football
- 4:39Speaker 4: at Auburn in order to sign with the Brewers when
- 4:41Speaker 4: he was drafted by the Brewers because his father preferred
- 4:44Speaker 4: that he played baseball.
- 4:45Speaker 2: I think dad made the right choice.
- 4:47Speaker 5: Hey, Dad might have let him in the right direction there.
- 4:51Speaker 5: That's an incredible, incredible sports lifelift also age of twenty.
- 4:55Speaker 5: I guess that kind of flies in the face of
- 4:57Speaker 5: my theory that they were just never bringing up young
- 4:59Speaker 5: players like that. It does feel like in the seventies
- 5:01Speaker 5: and eighties they brought up a lot of really really
- 5:03Speaker 5: young players, and then now it feels like that cycle
- 5:06Speaker 5: is coming back in baseball, isn't it. Yes, let's capitalize
- 5:10Speaker 5: on these twenty two year old's cheap labor, and there
- 5:12Speaker 5: are twenty two year old seasons where they might be
- 5:14Speaker 5: going as good as anybody else in the big League.
- 5:16Speaker 6: Well, you definitely, you definitely don't think of it, but
- 5:19Speaker 6: those guys that did come up that were usually really good.
- 5:22Speaker 6: And you know, Charlie Moore was obviously seen that way
- 5:24Speaker 6: if he came up as a twenty year old. I mean,
- 5:26Speaker 6: we always think about Robin coming up at eighteen years old,
- 5:29Speaker 6: and the other day we're talking about Bob Feller, I think,
- 5:31Speaker 6: coming up when he was that young. But you know,
- 5:33Speaker 6: and obviously through history different things were changing things. But yeah,
- 5:37Speaker 6: now everyone's focused on service time, Billy as you know,
- 5:39Speaker 6: and things like that. But you know, you're right, I mean,
- 5:42Speaker 6: those are the Arbiers or the pre Arbiers, for guys.
- 5:44Speaker 6: So it's like, oh, well, bring them up now, right,
- 5:47Speaker 6: these guys can make an instant impact.
- 5:49Speaker 4: Game balls and kicks of the balls, buying and selling.
- 5:51Speaker 4: Here's a game ball to the guy who came out
- 5:53Speaker 4: with a list obviously not exhausted, but a list of
- 5:56Speaker 4: things that didn't exist the last time the Knicks were
- 5:58Speaker 4: in the NBA finals.
- 5:59Speaker 2: How are you and I looking at the exact same
- 6:02Speaker 2: ninety nine?
- 6:03Speaker 4: How classic is this pre y two k man things
- 6:06Speaker 4: that didn't exist and the last time the next played
- 6:08Speaker 4: in the finals, the iPhone, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, x Tesla, SpaceX, Bitcoin, Gmail, Amazon, Prime,
- 6:16Speaker 4: Google Maps, netflicks, Android chat, GPT, WhatsApps, TikTok, snapchat, xbox three, trip, LinkedIn, iPad, Uber, Airbnb, Reddit, Spotify,
- 6:27Speaker 4: and zoom.
- 6:28Speaker 6: Yeah, basically anything social media, or I would say like
- 6:31Speaker 6: third stage Internet, Like Internet was there, we all had
- 6:35Speaker 6: email accounts, but what was it like to.
- 6:37Speaker 5: The level it is now? Was map Quest really doing
- 6:39Speaker 5: its thing in the in ninety nine? Like I thought
- 6:42Speaker 5: that one would have been almost better than Google Maps.
- 6:44Speaker 6: I saw, yeah, it would have been, well, but it
- 6:46Speaker 6: existed because we were printing them out. Like if you
- 6:48Speaker 6: were going somewhere, you were printing out directions from map quest.
- 6:51Speaker 2: I've done that. I did that so many times.
- 6:53Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I know what we were doing. I don't
- 6:55Speaker 5: know that we were doing it thirty or twenty seven
- 6:57Speaker 5: years ago. I mean that I thought this was I
- 6:59Speaker 5: thought that was almost still in map territory.
- 7:01Speaker 4: To put this in true armor terms, the last time
- 7:04Speaker 4: the Knicks were in the NBA Finals, it was a
- 7:07Speaker 4: couple of weeks before American Pie hit movie theater.
- 7:10Speaker 2: About that? How about that man WoT wild?
- 7:14Speaker 6: I know what, but you know what, I have to
- 7:15Speaker 6: say this And I saw a little you know me,
- 7:17Speaker 6: I love my NBA cobwebs accounts and stuff. I saw
- 7:20Speaker 6: a clip of Bob Kassa's narrating like Celebrity Row at
- 7:25Speaker 6: the Garden the last time they were in ben Stiller
- 7:27Speaker 6: was still there. He's the he's still there, So talk
- 7:30Speaker 6: about things that weren't there that are now. Ben Stiller
- 7:33Speaker 6: was there then and he's there now.
- 7:34Speaker 5: Yeah. And let's also let's also give a game ball
- 7:37Speaker 5: to Ben Stiller because he may or may not have
- 7:39Speaker 5: dropped on the McFee show that he was thinking about
- 7:42Speaker 5: doing Heavyweights too.
- 7:43Speaker 2: I know that's that's a big deal now.
- 7:45Speaker 5: If there would be a if there would be one
- 7:47Speaker 5: of the Ben Stiller classic movies to remake, Tropic Thunder
- 7:51Speaker 5: would be a great one.
- 7:52Speaker 2: However, I don't know you can read through, I don't.
- 7:55Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 7:55Speaker 5: Tropic Thunder two would be allowed to hit the theater's
- 7:58Speaker 5: Heavyweights too would definitely be uh non pc in today's
- 8:03Speaker 5: day and age, but would be so good.
- 8:05Speaker 2: I mean, it was an awesome movie.
- 8:06Speaker 6: Though. The thing about Heavyweights is like that was fat
- 8:10Speaker 6: Camp right, It's hilarious.
- 8:12Speaker 2: Man, given the favorite movies. Man, oh, I love it.
- 8:15Speaker 4: Given the score and the time and our our alarm clock.
- 8:19Speaker 4: I checked out before the end, but then I saw
- 8:22Speaker 4: the tape. I woke up this morning and saw the
- 8:23Speaker 4: clip of Patrick Ewing and Wald Fraser handing the trophy
- 8:27Speaker 4: to Jalen Brunt. Say that if you're a New York fan,
- 8:29Speaker 4: that gets you in the fields right there, like oh,
- 8:31Speaker 4: passing the torch after thirty years, that those guys were
- 8:34Speaker 4: in every game, like the unks, like for like all
- 8:37Speaker 4: the dads, the uncles.
- 8:38Speaker 2: Like proud of their kids.
- 8:40Speaker 6: You gotta love that if your Knicks fan, you know,
- 8:42Speaker 6: obviously I saw Larry Johnson starks Allan Houston Man Knicks fans.
- 8:46Speaker 2: They even had a number of them.
- 8:48Speaker 5: They showed Uh Breen was narrating it like Latrell Spree
- 8:52Speaker 5: Well Uh and company were at Radio City. I think
- 8:56Speaker 5: Bernard King all those guys were all hanging out at
- 8:58Speaker 5: at Radio City because they kept owing that crew and
- 9:02Speaker 5: then being able to celebrate that was an awesome, awesome
- 9:04Speaker 5: UH visual there.
- 9:06Speaker 2: And also game ball to Mike Breen because leaves to
- 9:09Speaker 2: an ovation.
- 9:10Speaker 5: He has been a Knicks fan, as he said last
- 9:13Speaker 5: night in an interview with Monica McNutt since he was
- 9:15Speaker 5: seven years old, called Nick games for over half of
- 9:18Speaker 5: his life, and they've been warm cheeks for the majority
- 9:21Speaker 5: of that time. And you know, last night you could
- 9:24Speaker 5: tell there were a couple of moments there where he
- 9:26Speaker 5: gave a little fist pump under the table, but I
- 9:29Speaker 5: thought he was pretty even keel. And this next four
- 9:33Speaker 5: to seven games, if he ends up calling, might be
- 9:35Speaker 5: the toughest ones of his entire life, but will definitely
- 9:38Speaker 5: be the ones that he remembers the.
- 9:39Speaker 2: Total pro Yeah, no question, no question. Man.
- 9:43Speaker 4: Now the Knicks have the it's the whole rest versus rest.
- 9:45Speaker 4: They gotta wait like more than a week. They gotta
- 9:47Speaker 4: you know, do they gotta practice and be ready. They
- 9:50Speaker 4: came out rusty in game one against uh uh Cleveland,
- 9:54Speaker 4: against Cleveland.
- 9:54Speaker 2: Yeahs against Cleveland after so eh, we'll see the flip side.
- 9:59Speaker 2: You get him another week to bask. Yeah.
- 10:01Speaker 4: But and you also get you know, okay, see in
- 10:03Speaker 4: San Antoni, just going.
- 10:04Speaker 5: At it, trading blows. Tonight is gonna be an awesome game.
- 10:08Speaker 5: It's gonna be fantastic. So I did not watch the
- 10:09Speaker 5: end of the game. But also we could almost make.
- 10:13Speaker 4: It if you watch the second quarter, you watch the
- 10:14Speaker 4: end of the game, can almost make our wake and
- 10:18Speaker 4: Bake segment right now. We can declare that the Wake
- 10:20Speaker 4: and Bake Award today or the notice the tip of
- 10:23Speaker 4: the cap, if you will, to our friends at Happy Place.
- 10:26Speaker 2: Hamp dot Com goes to James Harden. Dude, you just
- 10:30Speaker 2: got sweat.
- 10:31Speaker 4: You got beat an elimination game by thirty seven on
- 10:34Speaker 4: your home court, and then you come out and say, oh, well,
- 10:37Speaker 4: we were the better team like they. I think we're
- 10:39Speaker 4: a better team. They just they beat us. Genuinely, I
- 10:43Speaker 4: do feel like we're the better team. The next one,
- 10:47Speaker 4: all four games by double ditchits, including the game when
- 10:49Speaker 4: they came back historically down twenty one and covered twenty
- 10:53Speaker 4: two with the final eight minutes. The average margin of
- 10:55Speaker 4: victory in the series was nineteen points.
- 10:59Speaker 2: If you're better, give a you're on a historic heater
- 11:01Speaker 2: right now.
- 11:02Speaker 4: And somebody pointed out they might be on the best
- 11:04Speaker 4: like eleven game stretch in NBA history in terms of
- 11:07Speaker 4: point differential. No one in regular season or playoffs has
- 11:10Speaker 4: ever done what the Knicks have done in this in
- 11:13Speaker 4: this run, blowing people out, and James Harden thinks that
- 11:16Speaker 4: the Cleveland's like, legitimately we're genuinely the better team.
- 11:19Speaker 2: It's adorable.
- 11:20Speaker 5: I mean, I do I do wonder what the colt
- 11:23Speaker 5: what the sky the color of the sky is in
- 11:25Speaker 5: his plane, because it is phenomenal. But we do a
- 11:26Speaker 5: breaking news here. According to James Harden, this just in
- 11:30Speaker 5: being reported by me. He is going to pick up
- 11:32Speaker 5: that forty two million dollar player.
- 11:33Speaker 2: Yeah, I got.
- 11:34Speaker 5: I got a pretty good I got a pretty good idea.
- 11:36Speaker 5: He's picking up that forty two million dollar player option.
- 11:39Speaker 2: Then he has to ship it somewhere as dead cap.
- 11:41Speaker 6: You think that's why he started with the whole I
- 11:43Speaker 6: think we got something cooking here.
- 11:44Speaker 2: We got something cooking. We found something I'd love to
- 11:46Speaker 2: be bad.
- 11:46Speaker 5: And I can't wait to be back because guys, you're
- 11:48Speaker 5: paying me all of that forty two a lot of
- 11:50Speaker 5: honey busmon p.
- 11:53Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's.
- 11:54Speaker 6: Playing like honeybuttons a little bit too, I mean the
- 11:56Speaker 6: way he would get you know, beat every time off
- 11:58Speaker 6: the dribble. However, yeah, you know he did have some
- 12:01Speaker 6: you know home what was it earlier? We had a
- 12:03Speaker 6: text from somebody I think it was Mike Wit that
- 12:05Speaker 6: said here it is on YouTube. Hey, boys, when he
- 12:07Speaker 6: least expected playoff James Harden appears like he did last night.
- 12:10Speaker 2: I don't tht I at least expected it. That's my
- 12:13Speaker 2: only thing.
- 12:13Speaker 5: Yeah, I genuinely expect it every time he plays in
- 12:16Speaker 5: a playoff game, but rarely.
- 12:18Speaker 2: To Mike's point, Game seven.
- 12:21Speaker 5: Harden came out in Game four, right, the two of
- 12:24Speaker 5: eight from the field and five turnovers more more turnovers
- 12:27Speaker 5: than field goals. That is I believe the seventh time
- 12:30Speaker 5: he's done that in this playoffs, in particular, he's got
- 12:33Speaker 5: over forty games of that in his career.
- 12:35Speaker 2: Right, that was like only because he didn't get to
- 12:37Speaker 2: a Game seven.
- 12:38Speaker 6: I think that's the only reason the Game seven Harden
- 12:40Speaker 6: didn't come out there was Game four.
- 12:42Speaker 2: Billy, I agree.
- 12:43Speaker 6: It just you just felt like he was looking at
- 12:45Speaker 6: that thing saying, man, that check's gonna cash.
- 12:47Speaker 2: That check's gonna cash. That check's gonna cash.
- 12:49Speaker 4: Here's here's a little known stat for you. The Knicks.
- 12:54Speaker 4: They advanced to the finals. They won their close out
- 12:56Speaker 4: games by fifty one, thirty and thirty seven points. Pretty
- 13:00Speaker 4: good hand. They are also the first NBA Cup champion
- 13:04Speaker 4: team to make it to the final.
- 13:06Speaker 6: All Right, we need that and we need we need
- 13:10Speaker 6: the Cup to gain relevancy and the gain importance in
- 13:13Speaker 6: the sports community because then our NBA Cup win will
- 13:16Speaker 6: mean something in history, all right, you know.
- 13:18Speaker 5: Just need it to be more of a precursor to
- 13:20Speaker 5: real success. Listen, I don't know if the Thunder win
- 13:22Speaker 5: the NBA Championship, if they don't take v L to
- 13:25Speaker 5: the Bucks in the NBA Cup last year, they learn
- 13:27Speaker 5: the motivating factor. Learn a big, big lesson there, A
- 13:30Speaker 5: valuable lesson there.

- 14:55Speaker 5: That's a much better better response than I got from
- 14:58Speaker 5: my Manu Aaron Angler yesterday last week when he when
- 15:03Speaker 5: he had told me they went to the movie.
- 15:04Speaker 2: He's really into that. He is a Star Wars guy,
- 15:06Speaker 2: he was.
- 15:07Speaker 5: He was not super enthused with how how the Star
- 15:11Speaker 5: Wars remakes had gone. I hope everybody enjoys the Star
- 15:14Speaker 5: Wars though, just like I enjoy I hope everyone enjoys
- 15:16Speaker 5: the soccer that's coming up here pretty soon, right it,
- 15:18Speaker 5: deal man, enjoy the heck out of it because it
- 15:20Speaker 5: is uh. I saw somebody is sitting in like a
- 15:23Speaker 5: damn near IMAX version of a Marcus theater where they
- 15:27Speaker 5: had the screens on both sides and the middle. Holy cow,
- 15:30Speaker 5: you want to put yourself into a mind mess? That
- 15:33Speaker 5: pretty well, that trip that would be one to have
- 15:35Speaker 5: a drifts out before.
- 15:36Speaker 6: It's a really good reminder when you talk about those
- 15:38Speaker 6: things that we are not. You know, we always think
- 15:41Speaker 6: of ourselves as a human trade that the world revolves
- 15:44Speaker 6: are Our world revolves around us, and we're on our
- 15:46Speaker 6: little echo chambers and main characters. But it's a good
- 15:49Speaker 6: reminder that everyone else there's there's a whole world out
- 15:51Speaker 6: there outside of your bubble that are into different thing.
- 15:54Speaker 6: So if you think you know what, I don't watch
- 15:55Speaker 6: this and on whatdy else does? Go to Platawabie sports
- 15:58Speaker 6: Book during the World Cup. You'll see how many peop
- 16:00Speaker 6: we're into it. You'll go on to say on a
- 16:01Speaker 6: Wednesday morning when there's a big Champions League game, go
- 16:04Speaker 6: to Star Wars. It's just a reminder that there's people
- 16:06Speaker 6: out there that like different things than you do, and
- 16:08Speaker 6: we're all different.
- 16:09Speaker 2: So I kind of like I like that experience every
- 16:11Speaker 2: now on this.
- 16:11Speaker 4: Since we gave a shout out to our buddy Matt Miller,
- 16:14Speaker 4: come on he and his wife welcoming a blessed addition
- 16:17Speaker 4: about a game ball to Jordan and Ronica love Leave
- 16:20Speaker 4: to an.
- 16:20Speaker 5: Ovation and great work and great work being able to
- 16:24Speaker 5: keep it, keep it under wraps for a month, enjoy
- 16:27Speaker 5: enjoy the first month, because listen, there's not a whole
- 16:29Speaker 5: lot of enjoyment, right, Like, the first month is soaking
- 16:33Speaker 5: in the time, holding the youngster, standing around waiting for
- 16:36Speaker 5: her either fall asleeper.
- 16:37Speaker 2: Poop, right, and so like, now you get through that
- 16:40Speaker 2: first month.
- 16:41Speaker 5: Now everyone's out of diapers at home other than the
- 16:44Speaker 5: little one, and then you can get to a point
- 16:46Speaker 5: where like you can start showcasing and celebrating the one
- 16:50Speaker 5: month old, right because otherwise everyone's like, that's cute. I
- 16:54Speaker 5: can I hold it because I don't want to break it, break,
- 16:56Speaker 5: I don't want to gentil you're worried about it. Now
- 17:00Speaker 5: started getting a little bit more humanish, and now you
- 17:02Speaker 5: can actually start showing off the fact that you've got
- 17:04Speaker 5: a cool little one.
- 17:04Speaker 2: Yeah, and a baby girl. I don't know.
- 17:06Speaker 6: People were waiting to see if it was gonna be
- 17:07Speaker 6: a boy or girl. Obviously the announced it was a girl. Okay,
- 17:10Speaker 6: so the athletic jeans are gonna be obviously incredible with
- 17:13Speaker 6: those two. And you know, Kelly Sheffield like, let's get
- 17:16Speaker 6: the work here, I mean, recruit early. Obviously, Ronica is
- 17:19Speaker 6: a pro volleyball player. I would imagine this one's gonna
- 17:22Speaker 6: have some talent, all right. I would imagine this was
- 17:24Speaker 6: gonna have some talent. So hey might be a recruit
- 17:26Speaker 6: for Kelly Sheffield in eighteen years.
- 17:28Speaker 2: We'll have to see.
- 17:28Speaker 5: So you go kicking the balls to your social media
- 17:32Speaker 5: feeds that are coming up here, because they're about to
- 17:35Speaker 5: they are about to be flooded, flooded with OTA play
- 17:40Speaker 5: by play reports.
- 17:41Speaker 2: Now, as much as as much as.
- 17:44Speaker 5: I have a sick, twisted love affair with the NFL,
- 17:46Speaker 5: this might be the worst part of the NFL offseason
- 17:49Speaker 5: is in OTAs, not even once you get to camp,
- 17:53Speaker 5: which it's still an exhaustive process that doesn't necessarily make
- 17:57Speaker 5: a whole lot of sense or lend its off to
- 18:00Speaker 5: a whole lot of understanding as to who's gonna be
- 18:02Speaker 5: good or not. Uh, the OTA practice reports are about
- 18:05Speaker 5: to start, and they are gonna be hot, and they
- 18:08Speaker 5: are going to be rolling through all thirty two teams
- 18:10Speaker 5: and it starts today in Green Billy.
- 18:12Speaker 6: Was this the time, maybe you remember too, Drew, Was
- 18:15Speaker 6: this when you were first introduce to the match snimen
- 18:17Speaker 6: backpack pizza or was that during camp?
- 18:19Speaker 5: That was during training camp. That was during training camp
- 18:22Speaker 5: at the at the joint practices with the Denver Broncos.
- 18:27Speaker 5: Yeah right, because we first knew about that from Diana
- 18:31Speaker 5: Rosina of the Athletic formerly the Athletics formerly formerly.
- 18:36Speaker 6: Yes, but that's maybe think of it and I guess, okay,
- 18:39Speaker 6: it's nice weather though.
- 18:40Speaker 4: For all right, one last game ball before we get
- 18:43Speaker 4: to the hunter bomb guard game ball too. I think
- 18:45Speaker 4: it's like I see two or three women leaves off section.
- 18:51Speaker 2: Controversial shirts on.
- 18:53Speaker 4: But the saw phenomenon that is sweeping American family field
- 18:57Speaker 4: of late interesting yesterday section four way up top.
- 19:04Speaker 2: Way in that corner.
- 19:05Speaker 6: Like it's funny because we're going to the game tonight
- 19:07Speaker 6: and you know, we're thinking we're to sit and now
- 19:08Speaker 6: I'm thinking about I never would have thought about it before.
- 19:11Speaker 6: Is there gonna be a tarp SOPs? Like I could
- 19:13Speaker 6: be honest, this had to become controversial. I thought it
- 19:16Speaker 6: was funny. I thought it was great. The next thing
- 19:17Speaker 6: I know, people were fighting about it. Another culture war
- 19:20Speaker 6: on the internet.
- 19:21Speaker 2: Come on it right? It was note.
- 19:27Speaker 4: I was like you could tell and there and then
- 19:29Speaker 4: there was a chant. It almost felt like Squad six
- 19:31Speaker 4: at the Old Bucks Games.
- 19:32Speaker 2: And THEO, I said, And then it was like we
- 19:34Speaker 2: had the bucket ed Brigade.
- 19:36Speaker 4: I was the woman I was sitting next to, just like,
- 19:39Speaker 4: I can tolerate this for now. I'm not sick of
- 19:40Speaker 4: it yet. It's better than the wave they were having
- 19:44Speaker 4: some because it's in its own section.
- 19:47Speaker 6: And I got news for you don't go to a
- 19:49Speaker 6: game anywhere in Europe then basketball soccer because they freak
- 19:51Speaker 6: out the whole game, all right, So that's just we
- 19:53Speaker 6: used to do the O for Overbay.
- 19:55Speaker 2: We had the bucket ed Brigade.
- 19:57Speaker 6: You know, we did dev Squad six and Sector seven
- 20:00Speaker 6: if you remember Sector seven seven that was But I
- 20:02Speaker 6: get ability for some people to bought more than that.
- 20:04Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, there were some. It's just there's just
- 20:07Speaker 2: too much fear.
- 20:08Speaker 5: I don't I can't bring my family what their their
- 20:11Speaker 5: fifteen year old kids way from their shirts around.
- 20:13Speaker 2: I think I think we'll all be okay. I think
- 20:16Speaker 2: we will all be okay.
- 20:17Speaker 6: By the way, for that war, the Coca Cola family
- 20:19Speaker 6: section exists, and Teddy.
- 20:21Speaker 2: Could not be in a more opposite end of the stadium.
- 20:25Speaker 6: If you don't want to hear people yelling at a
- 20:26Speaker 6: ball game, don't go to a ball game anywhere else.
- 20:29Speaker 2: In the world.
- 20:29Speaker 5: Man, I'll tell you Section two twenty nine was captivated
- 20:32Speaker 5: with it on Friday night. I mean for that entire
- 20:34Speaker 5: inning and a half, I think there were definitely more
- 20:36Speaker 5: eyes turned around looking up into that corner than there
- 20:39Speaker 5: was on the U on the game that at that
- 20:41Speaker 5: point was someone in hand.
- 20:43Speaker 2: Someone in hand. But other than that, everybody.
- 20:46Speaker 5: Could not get enough of the fact that they even
- 20:48Speaker 5: fired up a bear still suck chance up there.
- 20:50Speaker 2: It's pretty wild. I heard that. Yeah, it's pretty well.
- 20:52Speaker 6: Which is funny, but I almost didn't want that because
- 20:54Speaker 6: now they're gonna have.
- 20:55Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's kind it's kind of a thing that
- 21:00Speaker 5: we do. I know you don't believe it, but people
- 21:02Speaker 5: do it. People do it now we do I guess.
- 21:05Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:05Speaker 4: All right, when we come back, Hunter Bombguart's going to
- 21:07Speaker 4: join the party, we'll get his thoughts on the miss
- 21:10Speaker 4: that outing and the way things are shaping up for
- 21:12Speaker 4: your Milwaukee Brewers. I'm gonna even ask him for the
- 21:15Speaker 4: Ortheedic Associates of Wisconsin Injury Update, as we always do
- 21:19Speaker 4: with Hunter Bomguart, our baseball guy is next. It's the
- 21:22Speaker 4: huddle Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. Hey, Drew, Billy and Arman
- 21:39Speaker 4: bringing it to you from headquarters. You can get us
- 21:41Speaker 4: a Nicola a lot dot com talking text Llente eight
- 21:42Speaker 4: seven seven seven nine three. Don't bother calling or texting
- 21:46Speaker 4: right now because we are otherwise occupied with our pal
- 21:50Speaker 4: Hunter bombguart, our go to guy for all things Brewers.
- 21:53Speaker 1: Good morning, Hunter, Good morning guys. How are you?
- 21:56Speaker 2: We are spectacular? How did Memorial Day? We can treat
- 21:58Speaker 2: you knowing that you spent most of it at the ballpark.
- 22:02Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it was. It was wonderful.
- 22:04Speaker 3: Some great weather over the weekend, a couple of roof
- 22:07Speaker 3: open days. Yesterday was probably the best of them. Just
- 22:11Speaker 3: mid eighties and sunshine and just a beautiful day and
- 22:14Speaker 3: a five one Brewers win in which you know, you
- 22:17Speaker 3: get to see Miz throw seven innings of one run
- 22:20Speaker 3: ball with twelve strikeouts. I mean, yesterday was about as
- 22:22Speaker 3: good of a day at the ballpark as you can have.
- 22:25Speaker 5: It really is phenomenal that week in and week out
- 22:27Speaker 5: you join us Hunter and we ask you the same
- 22:29Speaker 5: question of how close to the ceiling is Jacob Mazerowski
- 22:32Speaker 5: And then each each game it feels like he's hitting
- 22:35Speaker 5: a new one just talking to the players inside the clubhouse.
- 22:39Speaker 5: So I feel like they have grown board of seeing
- 22:42Speaker 5: and being in awe because it feels like every game
- 22:45Speaker 5: there's another one.
- 22:45Speaker 2: That's like, yeah, it's kind of the best run that
- 22:48Speaker 2: we've seen in a.
- 22:48Speaker 3: Long time, right, I mean yeah, you start with Pat
- 22:52Speaker 3: Murphy who's like, yeah, that was one of the best
- 22:54Speaker 3: performances he's seen in a long time, you know, saying
- 22:57Speaker 3: it's really special, which it is. Obviously, it's different, it's special.
- 23:01Speaker 3: It's impressive. Yelich use the word impressive with us yesterday
- 23:04Speaker 3: and he's like, you know, he was asked, are.
- 23:06Speaker 1: You wowed by it?
- 23:07Speaker 3: And he's like, I think it's just more just impressive
- 23:10Speaker 3: that he can do that. And you know, throwing one
- 23:12Speaker 3: oh three, it's gonna be tough to tough to hit.
- 23:14Speaker 3: And then Andrew Vaughn's like, yeah, I mean that's probably
- 23:16Speaker 3: the best fastball in the game.
- 23:18Speaker 6: Uh.
- 23:19Speaker 3: And so yeah, I mean and when when these players
- 23:21Speaker 3: sometimes we ask him like what would you do? What
- 23:23Speaker 3: would your approach be, and they're they're always like, ah,
- 23:27Speaker 3: try to hit the heater. I mean try, but you know,
- 23:30Speaker 3: that's that's the whole thing. Like Pat Murphy always says
- 23:32Speaker 3: you can time up a jet plane. But when Jacob
- 23:33Speaker 3: Mizerrowski is putting it where he wants to and, like
- 23:37Speaker 3: you said yesterday, trusting that he could put it up
- 23:39Speaker 3: in the zone and they're not gonna be able to.
- 23:41Speaker 1: Get to it. That's a that's a tall task for
- 23:44Speaker 1: those hitters.
- 23:45Speaker 3: So the players are you know, they they it seems
- 23:48Speaker 3: they you know, enjoy talking about it. It's it's a
- 23:50Speaker 3: team that obviously enjoys having him on the team. A
- 23:53Speaker 3: lot of them, you know, obviously they feel like they
- 23:55Speaker 3: have a really good chance to win when Jacob Mizerowski
- 23:57Speaker 3: starts a game. So it's good to have a line
- 24:00Speaker 3: your side, but it's it's leaving a lot of people
- 24:02Speaker 3: kind of speechless. I mean, even Pat Murphy to start
- 24:04Speaker 3: yesterday's press conference was this kind of trying to find
- 24:07Speaker 3: the words for it, because, like we've talked about, it's.
- 24:09Speaker 1: Something that we really have not seen before.
- 24:12Speaker 6: Yeah, quite a luxury to add that guy, I would
- 24:14Speaker 6: imagine as well Hunter and you know he gave us
- 24:17Speaker 6: a little more length seven innings, you know, close on
- 24:20Speaker 6: our pitches.
- 24:21Speaker 2: Is that a trend that might continue?
- 24:23Speaker 6: And is that something they're going to say is like exciting,
- 24:25Speaker 6: but see as maybe a risk because of the way
- 24:27Speaker 6: he throws.
- 24:28Speaker 2: And all those type of things. Maintaining his arm.
- 24:31Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think they're going to be careful,
- 24:33Speaker 3: but I also think they you know, he's worked on conditioning,
- 24:36Speaker 3: he's built more muscle, he's more prepared this year to
- 24:39Speaker 3: go longer than he was last year. You know, I
- 24:41Speaker 3: think we'll see an innings jump from last year to
- 24:44Speaker 3: this year. And you know, good news is the last
- 24:47Speaker 3: couple of times out there, there hasn't been the cramping issue.
- 24:49Speaker 3: He's he's felt good, so that's you know, we're trending
- 24:52Speaker 3: in the right direction with that. And it's all about
- 24:54Speaker 3: him learning his body, the coaches, learning his body, the
- 24:57Speaker 3: train Like everybody's it's a learning process. I mean, this
- 24:59Speaker 3: guy still hasn't been in the majors for more than
- 25:01Speaker 3: a year. He debuted in mid June last year. We're
- 25:03Speaker 3: approaching that, but we're still not to that. So it's
- 25:06Speaker 3: a learning process for everybody. But I do think for sure,
- 25:10Speaker 3: I mean, if he could be efficient. The thing about
- 25:12Speaker 3: you know, racking up the strikeouts and he has one
- 25:14Speaker 3: hundred on the season. Now that your pitch count is higher,
- 25:16Speaker 3: the more strike because you're going a little deeper into accounts.
- 25:19Speaker 6: Now.
- 25:20Speaker 3: Obviously it felt like a lot of them yesterday. We're
- 25:23Speaker 3: some three pitch strikeouts where it's just like, you know,
- 25:25Speaker 3: good morning, good afternoon, and good night. But otherwise sometimes
- 25:28Speaker 3: that can get you deeper in accounts. The good news
- 25:31Speaker 3: is he's those walks that control is really being honed
- 25:35Speaker 3: in right now. So the only one walk yesterday, that's
- 25:37Speaker 3: going to make your pitch count lower.
- 25:39Speaker 1: So hopefully that continues to be a trend.
- 25:41Speaker 3: I do think he's going to go deeper, especially if
- 25:44Speaker 3: he's like he was yesterday, just so dominant.
- 25:46Speaker 4: He's not even going to three ball counts very often.
- 25:49Speaker 4: Hunter's right, that's he's not even flirting with walking guys
- 25:54Speaker 4: most of the time because he's and I I always
- 25:57Speaker 4: talk about, oh, you know the legal adjustment stuff, Well,
- 25:59Speaker 4: against miss there's no adjustment. You just got to hit
- 26:02Speaker 4: the first one you can get that you can time
- 26:04Speaker 4: up right, going a fastball and swing at the first
- 26:06Speaker 4: one that's straight because if he's dropping that slider first pitch,
- 26:09Speaker 4: ain't hitting it if.
- 26:11Speaker 2: He throws it for a strike, So yeah, what a weapon.
- 26:14Speaker 4: And two for the other teams in the division, like
- 26:17Speaker 4: to face Miss and then go into a series and
- 26:20Speaker 4: face Skiens, like to have these two guys at the
- 26:22Speaker 4: top of rotations in your division. I was thinking about that,
- 26:26Speaker 4: like how bad does that suck? Like the Cardinals like,
- 26:28Speaker 4: oh man, then the Cubs are staring up at Cubs
- 26:33Speaker 4: are playing the Pirates, and you know, they better they
- 26:35Speaker 4: lost the opener, they better do something in the first
- 26:37Speaker 4: two games because Skeens is waiting in the last game, right,
- 26:41Speaker 4: So it's like rife man that it doesn't get any easier.
- 26:45Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. I mean when you.
- 26:47Speaker 3: Know, if you're like Cardinals looking at this series, it's
- 26:50Speaker 3: it's like you got Miss. It's like, okay, we launched that,
- 26:52Speaker 3: we still have two more. Uh, you know, it's kind
- 26:54Speaker 3: of like the series family for the Bruise against the Dodgers.
- 26:56Speaker 3: You know, the best pitcher they face was Yamamoto and
- 26:58Speaker 3: he was of course on on and it's like, we'll try,
- 27:02Speaker 3: but boy, that guy's really good. That's what the Brewers
- 27:04Speaker 3: have and miz and it's even two. It it seems
- 27:06Speaker 3: another level. And then Kyle Harrison has been nearly just
- 27:09Speaker 3: as good too, and then he goes tonight and you
- 27:11Speaker 3: have that one two punch, you know, kind of reminiscent
- 27:14Speaker 3: of some of the others you have you've had in
- 27:17Speaker 3: the past. Maybe it's been Burns Woodriff, maybe it's been
- 27:19Speaker 3: Paralta and Woodrow whatever it happens to be. You've had
- 27:22Speaker 3: those one two sometimes one two three punches and Burns
- 27:25Speaker 3: Woodrif and Peralta. But yeah, that that is what it
- 27:28Speaker 3: reminds you of. I mean, this is yesterday. When I'm
- 27:30Speaker 3: thinking about it, I'm like, I mean peak Corbyn Burns,
- 27:33Speaker 3: like Cy Young Burns was kind of like this where
- 27:35Speaker 3: just every time out you thought, Man, I mean this
- 27:37Speaker 3: guy could throw a no hitter deep into a game today,
- 27:41Speaker 3: Like that's what you think about with miss Rowski. You know,
- 27:43Speaker 3: I know Doug Doug Russell tweeted this yesterday, but I
- 27:46Speaker 3: gotta think that mis throws.
- 27:49Speaker 1: One at some point in his career.
- 27:50Speaker 3: I mean, the his stuff, the way it plays, and
- 27:53Speaker 3: the way like it just yesterday. I mean, you know,
- 27:57Speaker 3: those first five innings it's just unhittable. Then just a
- 27:59Speaker 3: kind of a b loop there by Pajes is able
- 28:03Speaker 3: to get get that no hitter gone. But boy, I
- 28:06Speaker 3: just gotta think at some point in his career that
- 28:08Speaker 3: that's probably Billy.
- 28:10Speaker 4: That's the prop bet. What will Miss have first? A
- 28:12Speaker 4: no hitter or an immaculate inning?
- 28:14Speaker 2: Yeah, I was just gonna say, I feel like, because
- 28:16Speaker 2: that's more rare than a perfect game. The immaculate inning
- 28:18Speaker 2: is pretty rare.
- 28:19Speaker 5: Yeah, And it feels like for him, the immaculate inning
- 28:22Speaker 5: would be easier, especially in the first inning, right like
- 28:26Speaker 5: it could happen at any any time. But like that
- 28:29Speaker 5: level of intensity that he comes out with. Who was
- 28:31Speaker 5: that on Tavian Wicks that told us on Packers, I come.
- 28:34Speaker 2: Out on it.
- 28:34Speaker 5: Yeah, I come out on it on it. Mis comes
- 28:37Speaker 5: out on it. He is, He is all juice. And
- 28:39Speaker 5: at that point I could totally see for those who.
- 28:41Speaker 4: Don't know, that's striking out the side on nine pitches, Yes,
- 28:45Speaker 4: put in play.
- 28:46Speaker 2: Or a foul ball or anything. Yeah, yeah, nothing, but
- 28:48Speaker 2: you can have a foul ball, foul balls count, I
- 28:50Speaker 2: guess you could.
- 28:51Speaker 4: You have to make it nine, but it has to
- 28:52Speaker 4: be nine pitches, nine pitches, nine strikes, striking outside.
- 28:56Speaker 2: I could see Miss doing that any inning. A thousand persons.
- 28:59Speaker 6: Totally agree, especially because I mean, we don't know how long,
- 29:03Speaker 6: you know, we don't know how long he'll throw in
- 29:04Speaker 6: any giving game if he'll be able to stretch out
- 29:06Speaker 6: to a full game. So I would think the immagulating
- 29:08Speaker 6: is even though it feels more unlikely, it feels more
- 29:11Speaker 6: likely for him.
- 29:11Speaker 5: Yeah, Hunter Offensively, over the last week, they've had some
- 29:15Speaker 5: guys really starting to pick it up. Who in your
- 29:18Speaker 5: eyes and having being able to watch the last couple
- 29:21Speaker 5: and seeing it after the Cup series has been the
- 29:24Speaker 5: most impressive because William Otrez is hitting the cover off
- 29:26Speaker 5: the ball, maybe not for power, but it's got almost
- 29:28Speaker 5: a five hundred average over the last week.
- 29:31Speaker 3: Yeah, he's got a nine game hitting streak now, which
- 29:33Speaker 3: is really good. You know, he's really consistent right now,
- 29:37Speaker 3: obviously on top of what he does behind the plate.
- 29:40Speaker 3: Andrew Vaughan basically picking up where he left off last year.
- 29:44Speaker 3: It's like I was looking at, Yeah, the guy's hitting
- 29:46Speaker 3: three thirty three this year, and I know he doesn't
- 29:48Speaker 3: have I think you have somewhere around maybe fifty at bats.
- 29:51Speaker 3: He obviously missed a lot of time with the injury,
- 29:53Speaker 3: and he's been back for about twenty days, just over
- 29:56Speaker 3: twenty days. But the guy was three for four yesterday.
- 30:00Speaker 3: And when I asked Pat Murphy about it after the game.
- 30:02Speaker 3: He's like, yeah, he's just a hitter.
- 30:03Speaker 6: Man.
- 30:03Speaker 3: He's like, he may not be the most physically gifted ballplayer,
- 30:07Speaker 3: but man mentally, that guy is a really good baseball player.
- 30:10Speaker 3: He called him a great baseball player yesterday, and I
- 30:12Speaker 3: think that's just it. I mean, the guy just goes
- 30:14Speaker 3: out and he knows what he's doing, he knows what
- 30:17Speaker 3: he wants to do. He's just been a different player
- 30:21Speaker 3: with the Brewers and whatever it was last year. You know,
- 30:24Speaker 3: you see it for a few months last year and
- 30:26Speaker 3: you say, okay, well, what can happen next year? You know,
- 30:29Speaker 3: will will this carry into twenty twenty six so far
- 30:32Speaker 3: and has and he's just again three for four yesterday.
- 30:36Speaker 3: He just finds himself on base, he finds himself driving
- 30:38Speaker 3: in runs, and that makes that lineup, you know, even
- 30:41Speaker 3: deeper when you have him or a Bowers, I know
- 30:43Speaker 3: Bowers at the day off yesterday, but when you get
- 30:45Speaker 3: that guy in there, and obviously you know Yellich hitting
- 30:48Speaker 3: a opposite field home run, you know Yelich is good.
- 30:50Speaker 1: When that guy's doing those types of things.
- 30:52Speaker 3: First opposite field home run since August thirtieth of last year, too,
- 30:55Speaker 3: So it had been a while since we saw him
- 30:58Speaker 3: go Apo Taco as the kid. But I do think
- 31:01Speaker 3: that I I do think Andrew Vaughan has been just impressive,
- 31:05Speaker 3: the fact that he carried it over to this year
- 31:07Speaker 3: and then he's just going out and continuing to do
- 31:09Speaker 3: his job and and uh man, it's just it's it's
- 31:13Speaker 3: the first base position is really producing offensively for the Brewers.
- 31:17Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think I'm glad you said the quet
- 31:19Speaker 2: part out loud.
- 31:19Speaker 6: I think we were all kind of in the back
- 31:21Speaker 6: of our mind, not all of us, but somewhere like, well,
- 31:23Speaker 6: this magic continue with Andrew Vaughan, and it has, and
- 31:26Speaker 6: that's great to see for the Brewers because they could
- 31:29Speaker 6: use the pop in his bat and they could use
- 31:31Speaker 6: that offense.
- 31:31Speaker 2: Hunter.
- 31:32Speaker 6: This is a question I was excited to ask you
- 31:34Speaker 6: a few days ago, but now I wonder if it's
- 31:36Speaker 6: too loaded of a question, so apologizing if it is
- 31:39Speaker 6: at a time, but most likely in the press box
- 31:42Speaker 6: to go tarps off.
- 31:43Speaker 2: Who do you think it is?
- 31:45Speaker 5: Now? Now?
- 31:46Speaker 6: If you don't want to answer, that's fine, because I
- 31:48Speaker 6: know this whole thing is taken on a whole new controversy.
- 31:50Speaker 2: Williams, which I'm not I think.
- 31:52Speaker 6: I mean, Spencer's the guy, right, I mean, or is
- 31:55Speaker 6: he too big?
- 31:55Speaker 5: Now? I'm going I'm going dark Horse tomclviy like, I mean,
- 31:59Speaker 5: because Adam Adam has been grinding for a long time.
- 32:01Speaker 5: I bet Adam ultimately has just a washboard and he's like,
- 32:03Speaker 5: you know what, I might as well just show it
- 32:05Speaker 5: off here real quick.
- 32:06Speaker 2: I know.
- 32:08Speaker 3: He knows that to have a good time. I man,
- 32:12Speaker 3: that's it. You know you've heard of flannel night. Now
- 32:14Speaker 3: now get ready for Tarp's off night.
- 32:17Speaker 1: Man.
- 32:18Speaker 3: That that was a conversation. I mean, that is just
- 32:20Speaker 3: the ts off has been a conversation over the weekend.
- 32:24Speaker 1: Made it to Milwaukee, you know.
- 32:25Speaker 5: Or let's be honest, if he's if he's in the
- 32:28Speaker 5: press box that night, the best chances for my co
- 32:31Speaker 5: host on Badger's post Game, Hollywood. I mean, like he's
- 32:37Speaker 5: got a little wrestler in him. Hollywood would would bust
- 32:40Speaker 5: that thing off and it would be a time. Uh
- 32:43Speaker 5: back to the Andrew Vaughan piece Hunter because he was
- 32:46Speaker 5: such a reclamation project. Do you think because I had
- 32:50Speaker 5: the conversation, everyone's having it. I was at the game
- 32:53Speaker 5: of a couple of games over the weekend. Everyone wants
- 32:55Speaker 5: to talk about who they're going to replace over on
- 32:56Speaker 5: the left side of the infield. Is it going to
- 32:58Speaker 5: be shortstop, it's gonna be third base, is gonna both
- 33:00Speaker 5: or they just go ride with Luis Renhifo and David
- 33:03Speaker 5: Hamilton and Joey Ortiz and see where it runs. Is
- 33:07Speaker 5: that a possibility that they go outside the organization for
- 33:10Speaker 5: one of those pieces or do you believe both of
- 33:13Speaker 5: those would be internal candidates to try to get a
- 33:17Speaker 5: promotional role, because I keep seeing the Royce Lewis name
- 33:19Speaker 5: and people are like that could be twenty twenty six
- 33:21Speaker 5: Andrew Vaughan, former number one overall pick, just got demoted
- 33:24Speaker 5: by the Twins. Maybe we try to find something there.
- 33:27Speaker 5: Do you believe that those are only internal improvements or
- 33:30Speaker 5: would that be something that maybe they would try to
- 33:32Speaker 5: go and look for.
- 33:33Speaker 3: I would be surprised if it's an external improvement, just
- 33:36Speaker 3: because of what they have at the minor league level
- 33:40Speaker 3: on the left side of the infield and just what
- 33:43Speaker 3: I mean trading away. Caleb Durban basically says, yeah, we
- 33:45Speaker 3: think those guys are gonna be ready sooner rather than later,
- 33:49Speaker 3: So I would think, and you know, you get you
- 33:52Speaker 3: have Jeffy Williams back in that Freddie prawl to deal,
- 33:55Speaker 3: you give Cooper Pratt that extension, like, I would be
- 33:57Speaker 3: surprised if they went out and tried to try to
- 34:00Speaker 3: fix it that way. However, if they're able to do
- 34:02Speaker 3: a smaller trade like they were with Savali for Vaughan
- 34:04Speaker 3: last year and get a Royce Lewis in, I wouldn't
- 34:07Speaker 3: They wouldn't shock me, but I would be over all
- 34:11Speaker 3: surprised if they went external. I do think that if
- 34:14Speaker 3: they are going to improve it, they are going to
- 34:15Speaker 3: make a call up, whether it's Cooper Pratt, whether it's
- 34:18Speaker 3: Jet Williams, whoever it happens to be. I Joey Ortis
- 34:23Speaker 3: has made it on base seven straight games, so he's
- 34:25Speaker 3: starting to get on base, He's starting to have a
- 34:27Speaker 3: little better at bats, and obviously his defense is good,
- 34:31Speaker 3: great really, and then when he fell three hits yesterday,
- 34:36Speaker 3: so I you know, and and David Hamilton's up and down.
- 34:40Speaker 3: I don't know, at what point do you like because
- 34:43Speaker 3: if you if you continue to wait, these guys are
- 34:45Speaker 3: probably gonna go up and down. Obviously, Look I mean,
- 34:48Speaker 3: if Joey Ortiz is on base seven straight games, and
- 34:51Speaker 3: this propels him offensively, then I think that guy is
- 34:54Speaker 3: probably you know, your your your shortstop for the foreseeable future.
- 34:58Speaker 3: Then if he gets hot, they're not gonna take him out.
- 35:02Speaker 3: So I just think it's interesting because these guys continue
- 35:05Speaker 3: to go up and down and overall, yes, they have
- 35:08Speaker 3: not gotten the production on the left side of the
- 35:09Speaker 3: infield that you want offensively, However, they're also not like
- 35:16Speaker 3: like they're not in a point it seems where they
- 35:19Speaker 3: want to make a move right now and considering what
- 35:23Speaker 3: they have over there, and when hefo has been better
- 35:26Speaker 3: over the last month and or Tease has gotten a
- 35:28Speaker 3: little better over the last week or so, and look
- 35:30Speaker 3: they're a little better, is just you know, getting on
- 35:33Speaker 3: base or so it's it's a really it's it's the
- 35:37Speaker 3: timing is going to be interesting. I think the the
- 35:40Speaker 3: the solve for it is internal. It's who comes up?
- 35:44Speaker 3: Does Jet Williams maybe fit this team a little more,
- 35:47Speaker 3: but Cooper Pratt has the big contract.
- 35:49Speaker 1: How do you balance that? Who comes up first?
- 35:52Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be fascinating kind of just watch
- 35:54Speaker 3: that the rest of the year, because I would be
- 35:55Speaker 3: surprised if neither came up. The rest of the year.
- 35:58Speaker 3: Someone's coming up at some point. It's just going to
- 36:01Speaker 3: be a matter of who they want to.
- 36:02Speaker 4: That's perfect segue on the way out here, Hunter the
- 36:05Speaker 4: Earthpedic Associates of Wisconsin injury update. You got anything on
- 36:10Speaker 4: Woodroff Priest a position player group seems pretty healthy. But
- 36:15Speaker 4: what about the Woodroff, Priester and the rest of the
- 36:19Speaker 4: guys on the comeback trail?
- 36:21Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 36:21Speaker 3: What, he was throwing a little bit in the bullpen yesterday,
- 36:24Speaker 3: So we'll get a report on that today to see
- 36:27Speaker 3: how that went, how the recovery's going, what the next
- 36:29Speaker 3: steps are for him. You know, we're getting to late
- 36:32Speaker 3: May now. You know we've heard late May early June
- 36:34Speaker 3: for him, so we're getting closer. He might face live
- 36:39Speaker 3: hitters again. I'm not sure, but the plan was to
- 36:42Speaker 3: do a bullpen and kind of see what happened after that.
- 36:44Speaker 3: Priest is going to pitch again in Nashville, probably within
- 36:47Speaker 3: the next couple of days. I don't know exactly what
- 36:49Speaker 3: day he scheduled to pitch, but he's.
- 36:50Speaker 1: Going to go again.
- 36:51Speaker 3: I mean when Brendan or when Pat Murphy was asked
- 36:54Speaker 3: about it on Friday, he's like he's just going to
- 36:56Speaker 3: keep pitching. He's like, he just has to get the feelback,
- 37:00Speaker 3: and I know the results don't look good. And you know,
- 37:02Speaker 3: some people, you know, I've seen on social media like hey,
- 37:05Speaker 3: get in the surgery. You know, just kind of maybe
- 37:07Speaker 3: a lost year. But I don't know. It sounds like
- 37:09Speaker 3: they want to at least try here and see if
- 37:12Speaker 3: he can get that feelback and then and then go
- 37:14Speaker 3: from there. So that's those two guys. Rob Ze continues
- 37:18Speaker 3: down in Nashville. Keel Badou, the outfielder, was reinstated from
- 37:21Speaker 3: the sixty day IL. He's now in Nashville. Could that
- 37:24Speaker 3: be an option possibly in the outfield at some point?
- 37:26Speaker 3: Pat Murphy said he thinks he would fit well here
- 37:30Speaker 3: at the major league level, So I would think they're
- 37:32Speaker 3: gonna give him some at bats and triple A and
- 37:33Speaker 3: then maybe he could be an option coming up from
- 37:36Speaker 3: the minor leagues and the outfield wise. So those are
- 37:39Speaker 3: those are the updates. Jared Kanig, they're kind of determining
- 37:43Speaker 3: his next steps. They were going to have a discussion
- 37:46Speaker 3: about that, I think either. I think maybe Sunday maybe
- 37:50Speaker 3: they had that discussion. So we should get an update
- 37:52Speaker 3: on him. So hopefully they're all working their way back.
- 37:55Speaker 3: I would think that Woodrift is not too far off
- 37:58Speaker 3: from a return.
- 38:00Speaker 2: Pretty good to hear.
- 38:00Speaker 4: Arth Bedic Associates Wisconsin. There is it isn't. There is
- 38:03Speaker 4: a difference. Visit Ortho Wisconsin dot com to learn about

- 38:34Speaker 3: a little bit about Kyle Harrison and by the way,
- 38:38Speaker 3: also on the injury port Logan Henderson, they're monitoring his
- 38:40Speaker 3: back tightness TBA still if he's going to start for tomorrow.
- 38:43Speaker 3: We should get an update on that today. But Pat
- 38:46Speaker 3: Murphy's tone didn't sound great when saying, uh, it's back
- 38:49Speaker 3: night tightness that Henderson's dealt with before. But they're just
- 38:52Speaker 3: monitoring it closely, and there's reason for concern.
- 38:55Speaker 2: Time for the crow call.
- 38:56Speaker 5: All right, time for cro call, Come on call.
- 39:00Speaker 2: We got Dave bus Junior's interesting. Interesting. All right, Hunter,

- 39:09Speaker 2: I can.
- 39:10Speaker 5: Whenever he hits a home run, you can say I
- 39:11Speaker 5: bit it, but do That's a that's gonna be a
- 39:14Speaker 5: phenomenal name to be able to rip out.
- 39:16Speaker 2: That's good.
- 39:16Speaker 4: We're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. Hey, we

- 39:43Speaker 5: This is gonna be one of the best, one of
- 39:44Speaker 5: the best games that we've gotten in and great.
- 39:46Speaker 2: We got the all time classic in game one.
- 39:49Speaker 5: It's felt like the other the last three have kind
- 39:51Speaker 5: of just plotted through to get to a two to
- 39:53Speaker 5: two score. Also, okay, see without a J. Mitchell, who
- 39:57Speaker 5: was probably their best player in round number two. Also
- 40:01Speaker 5: gonna be without Jalen Williams, and the injuries are starting
- 40:04Speaker 5: to sack up. For okay, see them might almost be
- 40:07Speaker 5: like they need a two time MVP, a back to
- 40:11Speaker 5: back MVP to be an all time great player that
- 40:15Speaker 5: he will say, be an all time great and get
- 40:17Speaker 5: them past this round.
- 40:18Speaker 2: That's gonna be the great question.
- 40:19Speaker 6: And Chet has not been amazing either, Billyon in my opinion,
- 40:22Speaker 6: he's been okay, right, Well, he's also going up against
- 40:24Speaker 6: an el right, so he's gotten a tough matchup, I'm
- 40:27Speaker 6: but he's also not the two time MVP.
- 40:29Speaker 5: Agree, right, Like, there's there's a different level here. One
- 40:31Speaker 5: final game ball that I can't believe I forgot here.
