• 3:04
  Speaker 4: I'm here, right, I am here. I'm a spectator right now.
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: I am here for as many minutes as possible of
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: a J versus cam On Mariners hitting coaches. Edgar Martin
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: led up a J.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: I love AJ. I just press this bunds a little bit.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: I'm not pressed up buds a little bit.
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: Well, they've got to, right, a J. They've got two
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: guys running the hitting department, right.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: They have three, really, if you count Edgar, I mean
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: Bobby Mgiannis is fine.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I got no problem, and Edgar's great. He's in the
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Hall of Fame.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: And we're gonna leave and we're gonna leave it at
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: that yeah.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: We're gon, We're gonna stop right there.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: AJ's got a few people on his list, and that's one.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: I know. I feel like the list might be like five,
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: it's not.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: It's nothing that well, not that many.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: Actually, there's not that many people on my list. There's
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: all there's a couple of reporters, and there's there's only
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: really one coach and I can.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Think of that.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: And then there's a couple of players.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Do I do you mean him too? What do you
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: mean for what?
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: That?
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: Are not your favorites?
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Not one, but.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: There's one that I'm for sure.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: I don't know who the other one, there's one for sure,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: but we all people know that.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: Know me right exactly. So let's call it one or
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: two players, two reporters too.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: There's two reporters that if I could meet him in
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: an alley, it would be fun.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: So we've got we've got a total of four to five.
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: This is good. I like this. This is a good exercise.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: We've got four to five, which, hey, some people would
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: probably be like, oh, AJ's probably got a long list.
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: You know, he played for a long time, he got
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: into it with with people whatever, he was a gamer.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: Now he's got four or five. It's pretty team. Yeah,
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: I mean I feel like I have probably a couple
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: of broadcasters.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: I mean the in the and as far as the
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: player list goes, I mean, it's only because of the
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: as it happened well during and after, but I played.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: But whatever, it's all good. You got to move on.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: You got to learn to move on, and I have.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: I've matured over my years. But there are always some
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: things you never forget. And there's certain there you go
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: that you can never forget and you never trust them.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: And there's certain reasons why certain reporters don't ever get
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: asked to come on.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: The show.
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: Facts and we bring a lot of reporters on the show,
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: which we'll do pretty soon too. We'll get our first
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: one going in about ten minutes. FT fan by now,
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: you know, if you're buying, selling, trading, collecting cards, Arena
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: Club is the spot. We've been talking about them all
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: season long. But I do want to focus on the
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: slab pack experience, CRATS, since you've been ripping some slab
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: packs digitally and what happens.
• 5:44
  Speaker 6: I mean, as a kid, you wanted to rip open
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: the packs. How can they do this digitally?
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: Baby, this is exciting how the graphics come out and everything,
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: and oh yeah, the card that you pull, you can
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: actually get that John.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Physically, so it's perfect.
• 5:59
  Speaker 6: It's all in one place and it's a super exciting experience.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they send that to you from the vault if
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: you want it. But if you look at it and
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: you're like, it's not the card for me, I want
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: to sell back, go for it. You can do any
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: of that on Arena Club and you can acquire the
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: best value for your money with those slab packs, transparent checklists,
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: and Arena Club's slab Safe program. Right now, you can
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: get twenty percent off your first slab pack or card
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: purchase by going to Arena club dot com slash foul
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: and use code foul, arenaclub dot com slash foul, use
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: code foul charge and our buddy Jim Boden put out
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: a tweet yesterday they kind of summed up some news
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: that was going on, and let's actually start with the Mariners.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: So they claim Leodi Taveres and that actually saves the
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: Texas Rangers a few million bucks. You've got the Yankees
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: designating Carlos Carrasco for assignment. The Dodgers did officially place
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: Tascar Hernandez on the il with a hamstring injury. Callahan
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: has the broken forearm. He's iel, it's that terrible injury
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: in the outfield. And then Mike Schilt, this was the
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: joke at the end, does not have scratched glasses after
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: he tossed them in his argument a few days ago.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: But let's start with Leolie Saveris. I mean, we've covered
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: this a couple times already this week, so Cam, we
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: can get your take here. Since Texas did pick up
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: a nice win yesterday, Chris Young is not going to
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: wait all season again. Right. The offense was really good
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: in twenty twenty three, they won a World Series. Not
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: good last year. Big problems with the fastball. They make
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: pickups like Jake Berger and Jock Peterson, both of them
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: not working out so far. Jock's been ice cold if
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: you're looking at the first six weeks of the year.
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: Jake Berger's now down in the minor leagues right now.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: Leodie Tavares was cut and just claimed by Seattle, and
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: they got rid of Donnie Ecker and added Brett Boone.
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: So there's actually a lot of Seattle Texas connectivity going
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: on here right now, the Mariners pick up Tavaris to
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: be part of their outfield. Is I don't know what
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: the deal is going to be with Victor Roeblace, but
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: if he comes back at all, it's probably going to
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: be late.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think for the Mariners it was an insurance
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: policy when you look at that Victor Roblaze trade and you.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: Know they're thinking the change of scenery will be good.
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: And you look at Leodo Tavares, you look at a
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: guy going back to the World Series where he showed
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: a glimpse off both sides of the play defensively, you know, athletically,
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: he showed a glimpse that he could be above average
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: big leaguer, and then the last couple of years it
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: just hasn't happened.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: He just struggled. He really hasn't seemed to find his footing.
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: So you know, when you look at that and the
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: lack of other guys who are not expendable, they had
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: to make a move. And what I love about this,
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: I told somebody earlier, is I love that Chris Young
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: is behind this and he isn't satisfied with the World Series.
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: Chris Young is an ex player, and I appreciate more
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: ex players like Chris Young. We've seen what Buster Posey
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: has put together in San Francisco.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Guys like Chris.
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: Young, they're not gonna wait around and be happy with
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: that one champion. They're not gonna wait around and watch
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: a team underachieve. And as a front office, sometimes you
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: can do things like try to find the right guys
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: who can can convey a message with the offense. It's
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: specifically talking about how the offense has struggled, or somebody
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: that may just click differently, may bring a different energy,
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: a different vibe. Like AJ said, things happen behind doors
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: that we don't know about, and sometimes, you know, it
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: just doesn't work out. And I also assume that even
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: you know, with these moves made, I just assume Chris
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: Young is a guy who went into those you know,
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: went to the clubhouse, maybe talk to Sieg or make
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: the talk, maybe talk to same and not saying they
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: were throwing anybody under the bus, but hey, they might
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: have said, you know, this just isn't connecting or just
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: just isn't making sick, or just it's not clicking for us.
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: And if it's forced them to make some decisions, and
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: you know, with that roster. They want to win and
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: they're not happy or they're not satisfied. So as a fan,
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: I appreciate the effort from the front office not just
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: sitting on their hands, not waiting on the players to
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: just figure it out, but also trying to do their
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: part and and help out.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: AJ. I feel like you've covered a decent amount of
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: Texas Rangers ball. Were you surprised that Tavaris got picked up?
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: No, No, he can be a good player. He's proven
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: he can be a good player. The most important thing
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: in the news dump is Mike shultz classes didn't get scratched. Like,
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: I don't care about this player, that.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: Player doing this.
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: Mike Schultz's classes didn't get scratch Why are we talking
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: about this guy getting picked up? Or like, let's talk
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: about the real important stuff here. Mike Shilt shucked his
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: glasses and he showed us all. They didn't get scratched.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: So Shilty, you can come on the show and discuss
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: what kind of glass you were. Maybe you can get
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: a sponsorship.
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: I was gonna say, AJ, we gotta find we gotta
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: find out that brand though, AJ, that's the biggest thing,
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: because you know AJ Ware's coming up. It was all
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: about Linz Crafters, all right. All I know is is
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: Lynz Crafters. So I know they got all these different
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: brands out there. Right now, we gotta find out the
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: brand of those glasses.
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's great. Adrian Johnson's taking the brunt of
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: it right there. The peen goes, the lineup card goes,
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: the glasses go.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: Nothing. Nothing hurting the process, kids, No animals were hurting
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: this process.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: Hey you this.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: We loved it. He did the right thing.
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: I loved it because you know why Tatis got ejected
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: and he knew I got to stand up for my guy,
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: and he went out there and he did it, and
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: the team responded and got him a w.
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: And apparently there was some history there between those two.
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: But what got me about aj I'm not sure having
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: any times you got tossed, But what does it do
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: as you're like you you got your players back, or
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: you're the player you're going off and the umpire gives
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: you that. The Adrian Johnson he just gives that like
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: little smirt, Like does that just piss you off even
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: more and just make you go even more overboard? Because
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: it seemed like he gave she'lly Shilty that little smirk
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: like kind of like all right, like whatever, oh Shilty
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: just gave it to him more. I love the energy,
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: I love the passion. And I said this years ago.
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: It always starts with the manager. The past two seasons,
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: this is the most together the Padres have been and
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: it's because of that guy right there and his awesome glasses.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I tell you got yeah.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, what else am I going to say? Yeah?
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: I mean umpires. When I got kicked out Cam, I
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: just walked back because I was like, I knew I
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: didn't want to get suspended for too long, so I
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: just I knew when I got kicked out, i'd yell
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: at him, and I just turned around to walk away
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: because I didn't want to know what I say, and
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: I didn't want to look at their face because then
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: I would just get angrier. The only time I ever
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: got ejected, but there was a couple of times they
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: got ejected to laugh. But one of them, Bob Davidson,
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: called a pitch on me, and I love Bob, but
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: he called a pitch on me. It almost hit me
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: from Marianos and I threw my helmet. I threw my
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: helmet and spun at his feet. It was great, and
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: he kicked me out. After the game. We saw each
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: other in the tunnel and I just said, you know, Bob,
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: you were right. You deserve to kick me out. He goes,
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: why did you throw your helmet? I go because I
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: was so damn mad? Do you cost me that a
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: bat in a close game? And he goes, okay, fair enough, but.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: That was it. We laughed about it after the game.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: But listen, getting ejected is a part of it, and
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: sometimes you just got to do it. And Hilty knew
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: and stood and he did it.
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: So I love it, especially if you're a manager. You
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: don't play, so you're not losing AB's or anything. It's
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: one regular season game.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: You find like five hundred bucks and whatever, you send
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: it to a charity and you move on.
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. Hey, we got word on Jordan Alvarez Chandler Rome,
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: who writes for The Athletic and is the host of
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: Krush City Territory, says An Mri revealed Jordon has a
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: muscle strain in the top of his right hand. Manager
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: Joe Spotted called it good news and said the Astros
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: hope he can be swinging to back when they return
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: home from this road trip. So this has been a
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: deep team for years, Cam, it just seems a little
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: bit thinner, especially position player wise. And we talked about
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: this yesterday, so we can get your take for a minute.
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: They feel it when Ordon's out, I'd say more so
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: than they had in the past. Right, it'd be like, oh,
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: yourdons out, but Kyle Pucker's on a heater right now, right,
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: And obviously if we're going further back, there's Correa and
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: Springer and guys like that, but they keep losing guys.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: You're not going to produce superstars on a yearly basis.
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: Listen, and I think what I see too, Scottie. This
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: is what I feel, And sometimes it's too as the
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: product of how much money are you willing to spend?
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: Sometimes when you have a winning product and you develop
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: a winning culture, you start to believe that all your
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: prospects and the people coming through the pipelines are going
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: to be those.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Guys that have got you there. Right.
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: So I don't know if I want to call it
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: undervalue what they've done, but I think sometimes you start
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: to get lost in your own salt of what the
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: guys who are I won't say generational. Some are generational,
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: but the all stars that are hard to come by,
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: the all stars that are hard to find. I think
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: sometimes you take for granted just what they've done and
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: how good they are, how tough it is to be
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: consistent at the big league levels.
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: It is complicated enough to figure out what type of
• 14:50

• 15:49
  Speaker 4: Sarah Langs tweet. I texted Sarah happy birthday the other day,
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: by the way, and the clip of the shout out
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: from Friday, she said, loves the ftfam and everybody on here,
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: So hello Sarah if you're watching. But anyway, she said,
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: most career walks before turning twenty seven. That was the tweet.
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: Soto is at seven ninety eight, passing Mickey Mantle at
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: seven ninety seven, and Soda turns twenty seven years old
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: on October twenty fifth, which is, you know, at World
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: Series time at that point, I guess AJ, So obviously
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: the game's played. You're never gonna get both right either
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: look at the games played or the age. But the
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: age here does tell us how much Soto's going to,
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: you know, be able to dominate the category still for
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: a long time. I don't think he's gonna lose the
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: plate discipline now anytime soon.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: No, that man loves the walk, That man loves the wall.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: He loves the walk. He loves the walk more I
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: think he loves the hit, but he loves the walk.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: So he's got a lot of walks. He's gonna keep
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: getting a walk. That's what he does.
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: He walked, Vado did it for twenty years.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Oh, you walk your way with the Hall of Fame. Obwausly,
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: you had to hit your way.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: But it's a new age. Now you can walk your
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: way with the Hall of Fame.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: And I get it.
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: I get played. Discipline is important, but you also got
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: to have a little bit of you. When there's a
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: guy on third in less than two outs and I
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: don't care who's hitting behind you, you might have to
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: expand a little bit and put the ball in player,
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: drive the guy in.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: I get it.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Walks are important. I'm just saying, sometimes you might have
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: to expand a little bit.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: Yes, thank you, I'm with aj.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: It's great.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: That's great, great accomplishment.
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: But eight hundred for billion dollars, two fifty four to
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: five homers fourteen rbah. That don't give a damn about
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: the walks.
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: Let's go over some games from yesterday. The Giants meeting
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: up with the Cubs, and you look at the score
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: and you're like, ah, they blew them out. Yeah, and extras.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: That eleventh inning was insane. I mean, AJ, you don't
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: see that very often. Things can get out of hand,
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: but that level of out of hand. Fourteen to five
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: was the final score of that one yesterday. So it's
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: tied for the highest scoring eleventh innings since nineteen hundred.
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: Last team just scored nine runs in the eleventh the padres.
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: I mean, I don't really care tenth, eleven, twelfth, whatever.
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: It's just a team absolutely annihilated another team in the eleven.
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you just don't see this. That's the thing. You
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: just don't. You just don't see this.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: In this new style of the way with the runner
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: on second, most teams try to get one, maybe two.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: But the hits and the mistakes just kept on coming,
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: and the Giants put it on them. I remember I
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: looked at this when it was five to five and
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: I was like, oh, all right, I'll turn this on.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: And then I looked away for a minute and it
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: was twelve to five, and then I looked back and
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: I was like, dang, they scored nine runs and went
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: in and that's a good extra ending right there.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was that was great.
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: But what I loved about it the most is when
• 18:34
  Speaker 5: you watch the highlight, everything stayed in the ballpark, right.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: I appreciate the teams who I think are making.
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: Us realize and it kind of goes to the walk
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: and it's great. But like when AJ talks and I
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: think he would have did kind of that old school mentality,
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: like what happened to being able to produce runs? Manufactured runs?
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: I seen, I saw a butt there. He almost was
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: a safety squeeze or suicide squeeze, one of the two,
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: but like a manufacturing runs. And again, Buster Posey a
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: baseball guy putting baseball players on the field and not
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: just one trick ponies. So you know you have a
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: team who doesn't rely on the homer and they don't
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: feast their famine off of it. So for me, it
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: just shows you how special it is when we can
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: get back to a team that can actually play baseball.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we're showing the record here. Three weeks after a
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: record sixteen runs in a single inning at Wrigley that
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: was Cubs d Backs. Another record this is nine runs
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: in the eleventh most scored in an extra inning in
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: Wrigley Field. History. By the way, on the other side,
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: Aja Kyle Harrison made his first career relief appearance. I mean,
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: he's had good stuff. It hasn't worked out for him
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: yet as a starter. The Giants have a pretty good bullpen.
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: To me, when I'm watching this game yesterday, I'm like, Okay,
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: the Cubs flaw and issue could be the bullpen, right
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: and for the Giants that could be their best strength.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Gave it a trade. Maybe they're make a little trade
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: to trade somewhere along the way. I've been gonna make
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: a little trader. I don't know.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: The Cubs need bullpen help. There's listen, there's no doubt
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: in my mind that Cubs need bullpen help. Okay, I
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: know they got Ran Pressley, but they're they're gonna need more.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: Hodge has been good, but they're gonna need some more.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: And I guarantee you right now, Jed Hoyer and those
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: Cubby bearers are out there looking for bullpen help.
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that'll be something they go after at the deadline. Obviously,
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: this year is gonna be different. They're gonna be in it.
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: You know, they're gonna be in the race here for
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: the division. I think that's pretty obvious. At this point,
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: they're about to hit the soft spot too. I think
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: it's coming up. Remember how we went over. They've got
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: like a really soft schedule coming up.
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and they and one thing they can do, and
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: one thing they can do in that division that most
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: teams can't is score ruins, like even with the bullpen
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: like they it might be one of those things we
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: might see a lot of over the run totals in
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: the Cubs games when they hit that little soft spot,
• 20:52
  Speaker 5: because a lot of those teams are gonna be facing
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: don't score a lot of ruins.
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So they've got to finish the gauntlet here with
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: the Mets after they finished the one they're playing today,
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: and then it's Marlins at home. They play the White
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: Sox at home, they go to Miami for three more,
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: then they've got Cincinnati, then they welcome in the Rockies
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: Nats or yeah, Reds Nats. They've got a really long
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: run here aj where they face.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: They don't sleep on the nets.
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: I know they're five hundred team. That's not a bad team.
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: I mean towards the end. Their point is, you heard
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: some of the teams I said, Rockies, White Sox. Obviously
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: the Marlins. This seems like a worse time to catch
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: the Marlins. I think they'll get worse as the year
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: goes on from a pitching perspective, but still, AJ, this
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: is where the Cubs can potentially, you know, go into
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: a twenty game stretch and go fifteen to five.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: No, this is the soft spot.
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: Everyone's question where they'd be at the end of April,
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: because they had the Dodgers, Diamondbacks, all those padres, all
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: those teams, and now they're in where they can really
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: make them any They've already made it. They've already got
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: a nice lead in their division, and they're playing great
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: and they're swinging the bats. So now it's time for
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: them to really turn it on. And the Cubs I
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: picked them to win the division.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: I still think they will.
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: I think they'll make moves when they need to, and
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: I think they're in a really good spot. I love
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: the we love We've talked about it. We love the
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: Tucker Edition, pi Ko Armstrong is becoming a superstar. So
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: they're they're on the right trajectory.
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: And No, I'll cap it with this. So I was
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: saying before how we were on Marquee, because we're on
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: that channel, which is the Cubs channel most days. It's funny.
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: We waited until we sent them off to their pregame
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: show or whatever they're doing, so that AJ could talk
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: a little bit, a little bit nicely about the Cubbies.
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: I'm honest, the Cubs are good. Cubs are the best
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: team in this division. They should win this division. And
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: I said They're going into the year the Cubs. I'm honest,
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: Like it might pay me to say it, but I'll
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: say it. The Cubs are the best team in this division.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: It should win this division and they should win it handily.
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: Now will they I don't know, but I think they will.
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: If you want to be boogie and have your own
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: personal shopper, Hungry Root is actually the spot, and you
• 23:02

• 23:58
  Speaker 4: you go. A couple Yankee tweet to flow through. Brian
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: Hooks said that they're not ruling out John Carlo Stanton
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: being ready when he's eligible to come off to sixty
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: dail later this month. Aaron Boone said his rehab will
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: looked different than most since they don't need him to
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: get ready to play the field. That's true, so you
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: just get your abs and then. Pedro Martinez tweeted about
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: Aaron Judge. He said he's not the same judge I
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: saw last year. He thinks he's going opposite field. He
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: is going opposite field more shows than the average, he said,
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: even more dangerous now than he was when he had
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: sixty plus homers. He has improved and matured and looks better.
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: Of course for Yankee fans, they want to see if
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: that translates to a better overall postseason hit or two,
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: which this approach I think will do that, right Cam.
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: I mean, he choked last year in the playoffs, like
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: he was bad, so this version of him would play
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: better in the playoffs.
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, And I think what you look at it,
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: I think is his k rate is at like sixteen percent,
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: which is well below his career average, which that says
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: a lot. He's he's letting the ball travel, he's trusting
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: his power, he's trusting what he does really well, and
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: he can use the hope feel really well. We saw,
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: you know, when he had that run of sixty. And
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: in the last few years we've talked so much about, Okay,
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: how Aaron Judge has changed his approaching kind of got
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: to you know, got into the I'm going to pull
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: the ball more and hit for more power. Well, he
• 25:14
  Speaker 5: can still hit for that same power and be an
• 25:16
  Speaker 5: elite and above average hitter if he used the whole field,
• 25:19
  Speaker 5: especially when you talk about three fourteen. That was a
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: thing that was you know, was kind of going around
• 25:24
  Speaker 5: the clubhouse when I will play for the Yankees, it was.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: Three fourteen to had T shirts. He said, three fourteen,
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: especially for the righties.
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: It just kind of, you know, reiterated that approach that, hey,
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: if I trust that backside approach, I can get rewarded.
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: So I think Pedro was spot on. He's seen it
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: for years.
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: Oh let's slap and we're talking about the Diamondbacks. I
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: don't remember if you mentioned this, but Corbyn Burns of
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: course is dealing with shoulder inflammation cortersone shot, I mean,
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: never great for your fresh signing. But then also Marrick
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: Kelly has been dealing with these cramps, so he's been
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: plagued with hydration issues. He's had leg cramps during games.
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: Had this pop up quite a bit this year already,
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: and fans are setting in bottles of pickles to help.
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: He said he's had some of them, or that's what
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: his manager, Tory Lebelo said, and that they're pretty good.
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: I heard a good idea. I think it was from
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: our Buddy Jim Bowden on his radio show What Do
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: You Think About This? AJ? Boden said that sometimes they
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: used to give ivs to pitchers who had issues like
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: this before games. I don't know, maybe he's done this already,
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: but there's got to be a way to do, like
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: extra hydration to make sure that this doesn't pop up.
