Speaker 3: a beautiful club goes up in a five o'clock club
0:19
Speaker 3: Tuesday on Bill schmid Over. There is armand sorry and
0:22
Speaker 3: Drew Olsen out this week here on Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin.
0:26
Speaker 3: But that is okay for all of our early risers.
0:29
Speaker 3: As Drew Alex to call him INSOMNIAX folks waiting outside
0:31
Speaker 3: the health club, I didn't see anybody outside the YMCA, admittedly,
0:34
Speaker 3: so didn't drive by the YMCA. So if you're over there,
0:37
Speaker 3: get your freak on, go and have yourself a beautiful morning,
0:39
Speaker 3: because it's the best way to start what is a nice,
0:42
Speaker 3: glorious Tuesday in the good Land. As our friend Doug
0:46
Speaker 3: Russell started with, as you may have heard if you
0:49
Speaker 3: joined us early on on YouTube x Facebook, all of
0:53
Speaker 3: the different streamers, the most important one still that free
0:56
Speaker 3: iHeartRadio app where you can join the show every single
0:58
Speaker 3: day or on ten seventy as in Madison, nine to
1:01
Speaker 3: twenty AM in Milwaukee, Arman. When our friend Doug Russell said, Freddie,
1:05
Speaker 3: we love you, but we got to beat you. I
1:07
Speaker 3: thought it was one of my favorite things that I've
1:09
Speaker 3: heard in an update, because we do.
1:11
Speaker 4: We love Freddy Peralta.
1:12
Speaker 3: I did a joking from my couch last night boo
1:16
Speaker 3: as he ran out onto the field, laughed as I
1:19
Speaker 3: said it, because you know you could. And he was
1:20
Speaker 3: the greatest bargain that the Milwaukee Brewers found. And then
1:23
Speaker 3: last night went on a rollback sale and ended up
1:27
Speaker 3: five and dive wasn't enough. Luckily, they could have kept
1:30
Speaker 3: him in there for seven innings and we would have
1:31
Speaker 3: been fine with it. As the Brewers tag their old
1:34
Speaker 3: friend Freddy Peralta in a dominating eight three dub over
1:37
Speaker 3: the Mets last night, well never I've been.
1:39
Speaker 1: So happy to see us get see fred Peralta.
1:42
Speaker 4: Fred Ferralta gave up some runs, but Freddy did.
1:45
Speaker 1: Now, it was a classic situation for Freddy that he's
1:48
Speaker 1: been struggling with this year, which is he has not
1:51
Speaker 1: been able to get out of trouble with what the
1:53
Speaker 1: curveball seems like, so the breaking ball is what we
1:55
Speaker 1: were jumping on. It was good to see him back,
1:57
Speaker 1: good to see him smiling, and as good as see
2:00
Speaker 1: us get runs off in Franklin win the game, because
2:02
Speaker 1: that was most important. So there's a lot to talk
2:04
Speaker 1: about today, Billy, that's one of them. And we'll get
2:06
Speaker 1: into that homecomings seeing you know. You know, Hank Aaron
2:11
Speaker 1: was honored last night with the fifth and that wonderful
2:13
Speaker 1: interview with Billy Aaron right and his wife, you know,
2:18
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about that. I'd been on a Dougie
2:21
Speaker 1: had a nice tweet about that, but to see her,
2:24
Speaker 1: to see Freddie last night and then we're just watching
2:26
Speaker 1: the Caleb Durbin highlight in Boston, and it made me
2:29
Speaker 1: realize a couple of things.
2:30
Speaker 4: We'll get to. It's a buyerself Tuesday. But there's a
2:32
Speaker 4: lot going on today and we'll get to a lot
2:34
Speaker 4: of it. Can I say one thing really quick before
2:36
Speaker 4: I forget I'll love you too? One thing?
2:38
Speaker 3: And also, don't apologize for saying something really quick because
2:41
Speaker 3: it will be out of your mind and then we'll
2:43
Speaker 3: lose that greatness.
2:44
Speaker 4: We got three hours and everybody on the nikolay lo dot.
2:46
Speaker 3: Com talking text line at eight seven seven seven nine three, Arman,
2:50
Speaker 3: don't rob us of losing that one.
2:52
Speaker 4: No, all right, because you get up there in age.
2:53
Speaker 3: I don't want you to lose the things that come
2:55
Speaker 3: into your mind just because you're gonna push it off
2:57
Speaker 3: for the seven o'clock hour.
2:59
Speaker 4: You let that gold quick.
3:00
Speaker 1: Now.
3:00
Speaker 4: I appreciate that because you know we might lose it.
3:02
Speaker 4: That's how we do it. So I appreciate you empowering
3:04
Speaker 4: me on that.
3:05
Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta tell you, you know one thing
3:08
Speaker 1: I gotta stop doing before these shows during this week.
3:11
Speaker 4: Uh, it's Make a Wish Week, you know, It's Make
3:13
Speaker 4: a Wish Week on ESPN.
3:14
Speaker 1: It's that week when they do the wishes with Make
3:17
Speaker 1: a Wish and the kids and the sports wishes and
3:19
Speaker 1: they do specials on them. I gotta stop watching that
3:21
Speaker 1: before the show, man, I I get mess. It was
3:25
Speaker 1: a young man playing the golf of Scottie Scheffler And
3:29
Speaker 1: you don't even need to watch with sounds sometimes and
3:31
Speaker 1: really still get the feels of it and all the change.
3:33
Speaker 1: You know, those have been with us. Understand we've been
3:36
Speaker 1: We've dealt with change over.
3:37
Speaker 4: The last year. And this is not about that.
3:39
Speaker 1: But the point I'm trying to make is the great
3:42
Speaker 1: thing about Make a Wish and it gives you perspective.
3:45
Speaker 1: One of my favorite things is about a couple of things.
3:47
Speaker 4: It gives you perspective on what really matters.
3:50
Speaker 1: And the second thing was through all the changes that
3:52
Speaker 1: we were able to still do what's always my favorite
3:55
Speaker 1: two days of the year on this station is our
3:58
Speaker 1: Our Wish Week with Make a Wish in the Forest,
4:00
Speaker 1: and it's still just the greatest thing we can possibly do.
4:03
Speaker 1: It's the greatest organization, and I'm always thankful for them
4:08
Speaker 1: and all the and all they can do for these kids.
4:10
Speaker 1: And every and this week, you know, they do the
4:12
Speaker 1: Make a Wish specials on on ESPN, and that messes
4:14
Speaker 1: me up.
4:15
Speaker 4: I gotta stop watching this before the showy.
4:17
Speaker 3: They do such an incredible job of being able to
4:20
Speaker 3: encapsulate the emotion of the moment, while also I think
4:24
Speaker 3: highlighting and hearing guys that have been lucky enough to
4:30
Speaker 3: be requested right, because I mean, that's that's a that's
4:32
Speaker 3: a remarkable honor. However, I also think it's a heck
4:36
Speaker 3: of a ask. Is the wrong way of putting it.
4:39
Speaker 3: I've heard I've John Cena, who's actually granted more Make
4:42
Speaker 3: a Wishes than anybody, has said it a couple of
4:44
Speaker 3: different times somebody asked him about how how are you
4:47
Speaker 3: able to compartmentalize what that situation was, right, because there's
4:51
Speaker 3: a lot of guys that go in there trying to
4:53
Speaker 3: do everything and be everything, and you're thinking so much, yeah,
4:56
Speaker 3: and then you're just not who that child is thinking of,
5:00
Speaker 3: who is the hero that they always see That that's
5:02
Speaker 3: a lot to live up to. Scottie Scheffler's one of
5:04
Speaker 3: the coolest dudes in the world. So I can't wait
5:06
Speaker 3: to actually watch that one. The Asia Wilson special yesterday
5:09
Speaker 3: was phenomenal as well. That was the first one I
5:11
Speaker 3: saw yesterday.
5:12
Speaker 1: That one they tease the seth Rollins one coming up,
5:14
Speaker 1: so just awesome.
5:16
Speaker 4: And I think I know what you mean.
5:17
Speaker 1: It's not that it's a burden, because I think so
5:19
Speaker 1: many of these athletes love doing it, but it can
5:22
Speaker 1: be heavy when you want to make sure it's everything
5:24
Speaker 1: it's supposed to be.
5:25
Speaker 3: Especially yeah, I mean, especially for some of these guys
5:28
Speaker 3: as they get up there in years and they get
5:30
Speaker 3: older that you know, they also go through the same
5:34
Speaker 3: changes that you and I have gone through over the
5:36
Speaker 3: last four or five years, where you start having kids,
5:38
Speaker 3: you start having families, you start personalizing every situation and
5:42
Speaker 3: in that moment. Again, it is the one of the
5:44
Speaker 3: most powerful things that you can do for a family
5:48
Speaker 3: to uplift them in that moment.
5:50
Speaker 4: And that's really really cool. I can't wait to be
5:52
Speaker 4: able to see it.
5:53
Speaker 3: And you're right though, that is something that if you
5:55
Speaker 3: see it early on in the morning, that's go set
5:58
Speaker 3: a tep that's going to set a mood and where
6:00
Speaker 3: you're at, especially when we turn the microphones on three
6:02
Speaker 3: and a half minutes later and my man arm.
6:04
Speaker 4: And sarians got the tissue. It still trying to figure
6:07
Speaker 4: it out. It's just like, you know, I.
6:08
Speaker 1: Need it some more minutes to collect myself. But it's okay,
6:11
Speaker 1: it's it's good.
6:12
Speaker 3: I thought you spilled coffee in there when I saw
6:14
Speaker 3: that that tissue in the hand.
6:16
Speaker 4: Okay, extras, I got extras back here.
6:18
Speaker 3: It's never a bad thing to get in touch with uh,
6:21
Speaker 3: with the emotion early on in the morning.
6:23
Speaker 4: Oh, it's always a good thing.
6:24
Speaker 1: You know. We're a little more vulnerable in the five
6:25
Speaker 1: o'clock hour, which we love, and so that's always five
6:27
Speaker 1: o'clock club. That's why everybody loved, that's why the listeners
6:30
Speaker 1: love to come to the club. At five, because you know,
6:33
Speaker 1: it's a little more you know, yeah, a little more vulnerable.
6:35
Speaker 1: It's truly personal. It's truly personal exactly. And uh yeah, Billy,
6:39
Speaker 1: that's why you know you're always prepared. You can never
6:41
Speaker 1: have tissues, you know, buil lessons you learned from yea onions.
6:46
Speaker 3: Yes, it does it early man, and it is Uh,
6:49
Speaker 3: it is a beautiful thing Forrest and the folks that
6:51
Speaker 3: make a wish to do such an exceptional job being
6:54
Speaker 3: able to allow us the opportunity that is a true
6:58
Speaker 3: privilege to be able to talk to those famis and
7:00
Speaker 3: then see the young people grow up, like our friend
7:02
Speaker 3: Sarah who comes in here every single year and continues
7:06
Speaker 3: to grow and continues to become a really just dynamic personality,
7:10
Speaker 3: a sweet young girl, and then continues to grow their friend.
7:14
Speaker 4: Logan, Logan's awesome. Yeah, I see.
7:16
Speaker 3: Logan every once in a while. We you used always
7:18
Speaker 3: see him target My man continues to level up. Yeah,
7:21
Speaker 3: just celebrated college graduation. That's amazing how you are able
7:26
Speaker 3: to be and see, uh, these young children live and
7:29
Speaker 3: grow and then become thriving adults and then they can
7:32
Speaker 3: also go and at some point, you know, sit next
7:34
Speaker 3: to you and watch Jakob Mezowski not shove for six
7:37
Speaker 3: innings last night.
7:38
Speaker 4: Nobody shoved for four for four of them.
7:41
Speaker 3: Now got himself out of this is like normal danger
7:44
Speaker 3: starting pitchers find themselves.
7:46
Speaker 1: In with normal pictures in the normal game of baseball, dude,
7:48
Speaker 1: but he's not normal.
7:49
Speaker 4: But he hasn't been at all.
7:51
Speaker 3: So every time that somebody even reaches base, like in
7:53
Speaker 3: the first inning, after he CA's the first two mets
7:56
Speaker 3: and then Bashett and Lindor get two of the weaker
7:59
Speaker 3: bas you're going to find against the Yeah, I saw
8:02
Speaker 3: contact yet, like, oh my god, this guy's got two
8:04
Speaker 3: on and two out.
8:05
Speaker 4: When does this happen?
8:06
Speaker 1: And let's be honest, like that's a nasty that's still
8:09
Speaker 1: a nasty line to get through, no matter what the
8:11
Speaker 1: situation is.
8:11
Speaker 3: For the matter, however poorly they are down. I mean,
8:14
Speaker 3: can you recognize those names? And that is a needy,
8:17
Speaker 3: meaty group.
8:17
Speaker 1: Soto, Lindor, you know, Bashett, I mean, we know there's
8:21
Speaker 1: talent there, it's not you know, just because they haven't
8:23
Speaker 1: done it. So yeah, but you see miz have to
8:25
Speaker 1: actually work around runners and you're like, oh, it's something crazy,
8:29
Speaker 1: but you know, he does the job and obviously, yeah,
8:31
Speaker 1: just they were ramping him up last night.
8:33
Speaker 4: Maintaining the workloads of four innings for him. Got the
8:35
Speaker 4: job done. Could you see? And I saw some of
8:37
Speaker 4: this this online.
8:38
Speaker 3: I don't necessarily believe it to be the case, at
8:41
Speaker 3: least early on, until I hear it from Hunter, who
8:44
Speaker 3: then you know he hears it from the team and
8:47
Speaker 3: Pat Murphy and everybody that they're talking to behind closed
8:50
Speaker 3: doors during clubhouse availability and things like that. That would
8:53
Speaker 3: be something to expect, like going forward, you're going to
8:56
Speaker 3: see them hardcore managing innings, not the roat and taking
8:59
Speaker 3: them out of sixty five pitches every single night, correct,
9:01
Speaker 3: but being rather meticulous and trying to pick their spots
9:06
Speaker 3: as to when they stretch out to even say a hundred.
9:10
Speaker 4: Right now he is twenty three.
9:12
Speaker 3: He's going to go into one of the bigger innings
9:15
Speaker 3: booms that you're going to have in your life.
9:17
Speaker 4: Not like people hadn't done it.
9:19
Speaker 3: However, for long the full time that we've been watching baseball,
9:24
Speaker 3: this is the main conversation about young starting pitchers once
9:27
Speaker 3: you get into the postseason and once you get into
9:28
Speaker 3: the Pennant race, arm and of how are you able
9:31
Speaker 3: to clearly not shutting the guy down because he's gonna
9:33
Speaker 3: win the siy young if he continues to roll here
9:35
Speaker 3: and he's your arguably best player, well the best player
9:39
Speaker 3: you need him if you're going to try to win
9:41
Speaker 3: and try to win a World Series. So you have
9:42
Speaker 3: to be rather diligent as to when and how you
9:46
Speaker 3: know that you don't overwork that arm, you keep it
9:49
Speaker 3: somewhat fresh, and then that you can hopefully be playing
9:54
Speaker 3: your best ball when it's mattering most. That's going to
9:56
Speaker 3: be an interesting build here in the last two months
10:00
Speaker 3: how they manage it, because I think they are going
10:02
Speaker 3: to have to maybe more than you would like to
10:04
Speaker 3: admit that.
10:05
Speaker 4: I think that's absolutely accurate and correct bally.
10:07
Speaker 1: And the thing is, I think we said this kind
10:10
Speaker 1: of a few months ago where we realized, Okay, it's
10:12
Speaker 1: pretty clear that the Brewers have a special talent Mazarowski.
10:16
Speaker 1: The toughest thing for them is not going to be
10:17
Speaker 1: coaching him right or telling him what how to throw
10:20
Speaker 1: his fastball, how to manage his It's not gonna be it.
10:23
Speaker 1: The toughest thing is going to be how to correctly
10:25
Speaker 1: manage his workload to get him optimum performance yet keep
10:28
Speaker 1: him healthy.
10:29
Speaker 4: Right that balance?
10:30
Speaker 1: Threading that needle is going to be a precarious situation.
10:33
Speaker 1: It's going to be the most important thing the Brewers
10:35
Speaker 1: have to do, and they're going to use all the
10:36
Speaker 1: data they have available. To your point, the tough thing
10:38
Speaker 1: is this is uncharted territory now for him. Like you
10:41
Speaker 1: might find America or you might sail away somewhere else.
10:43
Speaker 1: You just don't know when you have uncharted terror, you
10:45
Speaker 1: know what I mean. That's just the reality of it.
10:47
Speaker 1: So it's not that it's okay. Yes, the Brewers aren't
10:50
Speaker 1: going to shut him down and keep him in bubble wrap,
10:52
Speaker 1: but they're also going to be smart to maintain and
10:54
Speaker 1: this should be what fans like, because what'll we hear
10:56
Speaker 1: so much now from fans. Look, this is great, but
10:59
Speaker 1: what about October? Right a night, Brewers enough winning divisions?
11:02
Speaker 1: What about October? So there's so much put into why
11:05
Speaker 1: aren't we winning all of it in October?
11:07
Speaker 4: And how can we change that?
11:08
Speaker 1: Well, this is probably one of the best things you
11:10
Speaker 1: can do is make sure you have an eye and
11:12
Speaker 1: a focus on the best players and their health in October.
11:15
Speaker 4: I think that's what the Brewers are trying to do here.
11:17
Speaker 1: I think, you know gone, now are the days to
11:19
Speaker 1: say we're gonna give it all, We're gonna empty our
11:21
Speaker 1: bucket to make the playoffs. This isn't two thousand and eight,
11:23
Speaker 1: this isn't twenty eleven, where we're fighting every day to
11:26
Speaker 1: make sure we win the division. I think the Brewers
11:28
Speaker 1: obviously that's goal number one, but they feel good about
11:31
Speaker 1: the fact that, hey, we're looking toward October in the
11:34
Speaker 1: sense that we want to make sure our best asset
11:36
Speaker 1: once we get there, Jacob Mazerowski is healthy and ready
11:39
Speaker 1: to go release all his bullets when matters the most.
11:42
Speaker 4: And you got to like that as a Brewers fan.
11:44
Speaker 1: That's earning for a World Series because all the limited
11:47
Speaker 1: things you can control as a team about October results,
11:50
Speaker 1: it's limited. You really can't You really can't do anything.
11:53
Speaker 1: And I always say this may June July. To guarantee
11:57
Speaker 1: winning in October, you just have to try and get
11:59
Speaker 1: the best team going, get in there and let the
12:00
Speaker 1: chips fall where they may. But what can you do
12:03
Speaker 1: is hopefully keep your best players healthy, and I think
12:05
Speaker 1: that's what they're trying to do. You're short of saying,
12:08
Speaker 1: you know, We're not going to just shut him down
12:09
Speaker 1: and keep them. That's not good for anybody either. You
12:11
Speaker 1: have to understand there's a balance there, and I think
12:13
Speaker 1: the Brewers are trying to do that.
12:14
Speaker 4: Well, and you hit it on the head.
12:16
Speaker 3: It's a difficult balance because you can call it one
12:19
Speaker 3: of the controllables all reality, it's not right. It's it's
12:23
Speaker 3: not in your control as to how healthy a player
12:26
Speaker 3: is and if they end up having a catastrophic injury.
12:29
Speaker 3: But when it's talking a lot about workload and now
12:33
Speaker 3: it's funny when the sport is different, we talk about
12:37
Speaker 3: management and then we talk about load management, right like
12:40
Speaker 3: we talked about the development management in baseball because of
12:44
Speaker 3: the grind. I mean, Misowski threw last year combined one
12:49
Speaker 3: hundred and twenty nine innings.
12:51
Speaker 4: He's already had one hundred and fifteen.
12:52
Speaker 3: Yes, you got over two months left of the season,
12:56
Speaker 3: hopefully three full months left of the season. So that's
13:00
Speaker 3: he's going to be a threading of the needle that
13:03
Speaker 3: they're going to have to do. And also I think
13:05
Speaker 3: reemphasizes the point that This Morning Show has made significantly
13:10
Speaker 3: that they need to add starting pitching into the trade deadline,
13:14
Speaker 3: which is two weeks from yesterday. They grabbed my colors
13:17
Speaker 3: from Houston, and I think at least from the appearance
13:21
Speaker 3: last night, you got to see he's able to give
13:25
Speaker 3: you some big league innings. He was better in his
13:27
Speaker 3: last couple of rehab starts than he was earlier on
13:29
Speaker 3: in the year. That's somebody that's not going to get
13:31
Speaker 3: rattled from the moment. Sorry, Game seven of a World.
13:33
Speaker 4: Series not There's.
13:36
Speaker 3: Nothing my man has not seen in baseball that is
13:39
Speaker 3: going to be an issue. The only thing that's uncharted
13:42
Speaker 3: territory for him is coming out of the bullpen.
13:44
Speaker 4: And I thought he handled it pretty decently. Yeah, I
13:46
Speaker 4: mean three innings.
13:46
Speaker 1: I mean he did get the what they got, the
13:48
Speaker 1: ground ball for the run and these single But it
13:50
Speaker 1: wasn't like he was terrible.
13:51
Speaker 4: He was doing well, hitting his.
13:53
Speaker 1: Spots, getting out. I think more than anything, he gave
13:56
Speaker 1: you innings. And that's that might be what it comes
13:57
Speaker 1: down to. It might be like, are you trading for
13:59
Speaker 1: a piece that's going to win you in October. You'd
14:01
Speaker 1: like to think that, but it might just be No,
14:03
Speaker 1: we're trading for more depth to get us through this season.
14:05
Speaker 1: We're trading for any time you know, yeah, you develop
14:09
Speaker 1: lance right now to say, hey, maybe you can give
14:10
Speaker 1: us two winnings in game three, maybe you can give
14:13
Speaker 1: us the right moment in a game situation, you know,
14:16
Speaker 1: in a playoff situation where we're just trying to get out,
14:19
Speaker 1: we're going out by out, you know that that that
14:21
Speaker 1: becomes that situation. So you're just trying to find as
14:24
Speaker 1: much depth as possible to get your guys through and say, hey,
14:27
Speaker 1: let's try.
14:28
Speaker 3: And you know, probably wasn't a better situation to be
14:30
Speaker 3: able to get him into for the first time. No, absolutely,
14:33
Speaker 3: And then you know that Joey hit the homer, so
14:35
Speaker 3: it was just perfect. So you'll want more situations.
14:39
Speaker 1: Like even for a guy like yo, we have a
14:40
Speaker 1: lot to talk about about this game, but like guess
14:42
Speaker 1: that you want to get guys in situations where it's
14:44
Speaker 1: still leveraged but it's not high danger in those situations.
14:48
Speaker 1: And the Brewers were able to do that last night.
14:50
Speaker 1: The blueprint went was planned. That was great to see
14:53
Speaker 1: Cooper Pratt.
14:53
Speaker 3: The I was just gonna say, and we bury the
14:55
Speaker 3: lead of Cooper Pratt hitting his first big league home
14:57
Speaker 3: run lot with the thank you on the sound because
15:01
Speaker 3: there's a lot of times, and I get sick and
15:04
Speaker 3: damn tired of it, arman of this announcer Jinx, I
15:08
Speaker 3: think we put sometimes give ourselves a little bit too
15:13
Speaker 3: much credit a lot of times in the broadcaster chair. Absolutely,
15:17
Speaker 3: you have zero say now, my man, I and Eagle
15:20
Speaker 3: has said this a lot of times. If I understood,
15:23
Speaker 3: and I had any control, I'd probably get out of
15:25
Speaker 3: my business and I would probably go and make a
15:26
Speaker 3: lot more money doing it, because I would gamble on
15:28
Speaker 3: the games and I know exactly what's happening.
15:30
Speaker 1: Uh.
15:30
Speaker 3: But he's like, I don't. I don't have that kind
15:32
Speaker 3: of control. I wish I had that kind of power. However,
15:35
Speaker 3: Brian Anderson damn could have told me last night that
15:38
Speaker 3: he had a fortune teller model as he gives the
15:41
Speaker 3: lead up right to needs to find his first big
15:43
Speaker 3: league home run and then Cooper Pratt delivers that American
15:46
Speaker 3: family field last night.
15:47
Speaker 4: Well, wasn't it great to have BA two on the call.
15:52
Speaker 3: And to have the as you mentioned the interview with
15:55
Speaker 3: Billy Aaron, the flashback picture of Rock and mister Aaron
16:01
Speaker 3: and Brian Anderson. They're old, as you see, significantly younger
16:07
Speaker 3: what eighteen years ago? That picture was probably twenty years ago.
16:09
Speaker 3: That picture was wow as they were all hanging out,
16:11
Speaker 3: and you realize the years of Milwaukee baseball that were
16:15
Speaker 3: honored last night, and it being the fiftieth anniversary of
16:19
Speaker 3: his last home run. That kind of crept up on
16:22
Speaker 3: you. You don't necessarily realize, and the years fly by, and
16:26
Speaker 3: sadly when Henry Aaron passed, you can kind of forget
16:29
Speaker 3: about some of the landmarks. But it was amazing to
16:33
Speaker 3: have missus Aaron in the crowd last night. And then
16:37
Speaker 3: Andrew Vaughn have to welcome it with a two run
16:41
Speaker 3: homer that was phenomenal.
16:42
Speaker 4: Chef's kiss that was great too. She clearly enjoyed it.
16:45
Speaker 1: So the whole thing was was really just wonderful, all right,
16:48
Speaker 1: So thanks for buying me some time there, Billy.
16:50
Speaker 4: This is how the Cooper Pratt homer sounded from Bee.
16:52
Speaker 5: Still looking for his first career big league homer does
16:57
Speaker 5: have seven RBIs.
17:00
Speaker 6: And he sends out one in the air left center field.
17:03
Speaker 4: Got some town there is number one on the board,
17:11
Speaker 4: his first big leg over.
17:18
Speaker 3: Some strong coops there in the crowds. He rounds third basin,
17:22
Speaker 3: heads for home and rockhead. All you have to do
17:24
Speaker 3: is ask that. Unfortunately I cut off in that highlight.
17:26
Speaker 3: But Rockhead that as well.
17:27
Speaker 4: I know.
17:27
Speaker 1: So the young man in the black up pole shirt
17:29
Speaker 1: somewhere out there and left field caught it. I saw
17:32
Speaker 1: that as well. So now you gotta return that one, right.
17:35
Speaker 1: And I don't know what the monetary value.
17:37
Speaker 3: Is on that well, and I'm glad that it happens
17:39
Speaker 3: on a buyer leading into a buyer cell to say,
17:41
Speaker 3: because Doug Russell fired it up and queued it up
17:45
Speaker 3: during his update. We're going to discuss it coming up
17:47
Speaker 3: throughout the morning very quickly. My man in the as
17:51
Speaker 3: you mentioned polo shirt, very nicely sitting in those sweet
17:55
Speaker 3: tables right behind the bullpen.
17:57
Speaker 1: One of the decks associated bank maybe Miller. One of
18:01
Speaker 1: the decks Miller. There's a lot of decks now.
18:06
Speaker 3: Because that's not a part of the barrel yard stands
18:09
Speaker 3: or seats that's in a different section.
18:11
Speaker 1: I think you're right, but I don't know these. I mean,
18:14
Speaker 1: it's hard to know all these days unless you're the part,
18:15
Speaker 1: like every day.
18:16
Speaker 4: But standing room only.
18:17
Speaker 3: When you catch that one, now standing ram on, he
18:20
Speaker 3: might not have been as gracious as you might have thought.
18:23
Speaker 4: Right out of the gates. What are you saying about
18:24
Speaker 4: the sro O crowd build do we fire up a negotiation?
18:28
Speaker 3: I think the sro crowd is generally the hardest core
18:32
Speaker 3: fan rot the ones that are thinking about this kind
18:36
Speaker 3: of stuff of I just dropped and now money wise,
18:40
Speaker 3: money wise the bag or experience wise the bag. We'll
18:44
Speaker 3: discuss it, because I appreciate what a man did. I
18:47
Speaker 3: don't know that it was the right decision. Eight seven,
18:50
Speaker 3: seven seven, I bore one night seven three. He's arm
18:52
Speaker 3: and sorry and I'm Billy Schmid. We may get through
18:54
Speaker 3: without our fearless leader, Drew Olsen. However, you help us,
18:58
Speaker 3: because otherwise we would not be able to get through
19:00
Speaker 3: these early early mornings. But the five o'clock club brings
19:03
Speaker 3: us life, brings us juice, and brings the juice.
19:05
Speaker 4: On the Nicolay lot.
19:06
Speaker 3: Com'm talking text line at eight seven seven seven nine
19:08
Speaker 3: four seven three Brewers win last night, they go for
19:12
Speaker 3: a series victory today. Freddy Peralta. The victim last night,
19:16
Speaker 3: and maybe the victor tonight is the man that you
19:20
Speaker 3: acquired in that deal. We'll discuss that as we continue
19:23
Speaker 3: rolling through all day long. We got a hunter bombgut
19:24
Speaker 3: report of the game coming up in about twenty minutes.
19:27
Speaker 4: Stay with us.
19:27
Speaker 3: We're up early with you five o'clock clubbers. Welcome in.
19:31
Speaker 4: It's the Huddle on Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin.
19:36
Speaker 7: The big couple out of the way for Homer.
19:40
Speaker 4: It feels good.
19:41
Speaker 7: No more showers hopefully, but no, it's fantastic.
19:47
Speaker 4: Yes and no.
19:47
Speaker 7: I mean I wasn't, like obviously I wanted to do.
19:50
Speaker 7: I got close a couple of times, but I didn't
19:52
Speaker 7: go in there trying to hit it. I mean, it
19:54
Speaker 7: was in the back of my head, but I was
19:56
Speaker 7: just trying to hit a fastball and then slider and
20:01
Speaker 7: it snuck out. So I was so amped off I couldn't.
20:03
Speaker 7: I didn't, I didn't care. I mean, it was cool.
20:05
Speaker 7: I was just so happy to get it out of
20:07
Speaker 7: the way.
20:08
Speaker 1: But yeah, it was it was cool.
20:11
Speaker 3: There is Cooper Pratt last night after he hits his
20:16
Speaker 3: first major league career home run. I tell the little
20:19
Speaker 3: montage clips there. He is fun on the mic.
20:21
Speaker 1: The last question was about him getting the salient treatment.
20:23
Speaker 1: By the way, Billy, I don't know if you saw that.
20:25
Speaker 1: I'm sure, oh yeah, one hundred percent. That was kind
20:27
Speaker 1: of cool. I like the salent treatment. But I feel
20:30
Speaker 1: like I don't know if they're doing it the way
20:32
Speaker 1: I grew up knowing the Salent treatment, because like they
20:35
Speaker 1: just escaped the dugout. Now like they just disappear, and
20:38
Speaker 1: that's well, I remember the Salent treatment being is everybody's
20:41
Speaker 1: on the dugout totally ignoring you.
20:43
Speaker 3: Oh well, I think the I think the video you
20:45
Speaker 3: need to see is the one that Sophia Minnard posted
20:48
Speaker 3: because it's a little bit a little bit cleaner from that,
20:51
Speaker 3: from like that that Camerawell area, because there they did.
20:54
Speaker 3: They they cleared out the entire walkway of the of
20:58
Speaker 3: the dugout and then quickly it looked like Funny looked
21:01
Speaker 3: like Braidon Shoemake almost just spared him, like he was like,
21:05
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna let this one go by, and he
21:07
Speaker 3: grabbed him and then started the parade and started the celebration.
21:10
Speaker 3: But yeah, it is, it's morphed over the years because
21:14
Speaker 3: I do think at some point, I mean, these guys
21:17
Speaker 3: are all just doing what they saw people do at
21:19
Speaker 3: some particular point in time, right like nobody actually knows
21:21
Speaker 3: where it potentially started, but it's now just the thing
21:24
Speaker 3: you have to do.
21:25
Speaker 4: And if you don't. You basically didn't hit your first
21:27
Speaker 4: major league home run. That's the thing about those type
21:29
Speaker 4: of traditions.
21:30
Speaker 1: It's just it's just history passed on from one generation
21:33
Speaker 1: to the next based on you.
21:34
Speaker 4: Like you said, like storytelling. This is just how we
21:36
Speaker 4: tell you. It's like oral history.
21:38
Speaker 1: It's like it's like it's passed on this way, and
21:40
Speaker 1: then everyone puts their little spin on the variations of it.
21:43
Speaker 1: You know, I always talk about what, like student sections
21:45
Speaker 1: do they just do what they saw that their upperclassmen do.
21:48
Speaker 4: When they did it all. For sure, it's slowly morse overtime,
21:50
Speaker 4: but it's pretty cool. I love one of those.
21:52
Speaker 1: Now, I'd be the worst at salent treatment because I'd
21:54
Speaker 1: be too excited to keep it going.
21:55
Speaker 4: There's no way you'd be able to. I couldn't. I'd
21:58
Speaker 4: be the one to break first right away.
21:59
Speaker 1: But I was awesome to see Cooper get that, obviously,
22:02
Speaker 1: to say, yeah, yeah, I was about time.
22:04
Speaker 4: He's funny on the mic.
22:05
Speaker 3: So well, and seeing that ever since he came up,
22:07
Speaker 3: you know now it did. It was his first It
22:10
Speaker 3: was the first time he's been able to leave the ballpark. Now,
22:12
Speaker 3: Joey Ortiz is starting to do it with regularity.
22:14
Speaker 4: He's just a slugger.
22:16
Speaker 3: It's pretty impressive to see how he has handled the
22:20
Speaker 3: situation right because clearly somebody was anointed by the organization
22:25
Speaker 3: that that comes again it sounds like a negative connotation.
22:27
Speaker 3: It's not former six round pick. They paid him over slot,
22:33
Speaker 3: They understood who they had, they developed him. They clearly
22:36
Speaker 3: think that they have a different level player, and Joe
22:39
Speaker 3: Ortiz in a business understands what that situation is going
22:42
Speaker 3: to be. But to not allow yourself to sulk or
22:46
Speaker 3: be somewhat woe is me in the situation because it's
22:50
Speaker 3: not like he played poorly. Now he hit poorly, but
22:53
Speaker 3: especially defensively. But he played exceptionally well defensively. And to
22:58
Speaker 3: take that in be bitter, handle it in the exact
23:02
Speaker 3: right way. You clearly understand now why everybody thinks so
23:05
Speaker 3: highly of him in the organization and at the clubhouse,
23:08
Speaker 3: and how you see it when he does well, the
23:12
Speaker 3: response in the clubhouse that he means a lot to
23:15
Speaker 3: those guys. It's it's cool to be able to see
23:18
Speaker 3: somebody handle that demotion position change the right way and
23:23
Speaker 3: then to somehow flourish in it offensively. Is again it
23:27
Speaker 3: might just be coincidence. I don't think it necessarily is.
23:29
Speaker 3: You talked to it. You talked about it at nauseum
23:33
Speaker 3: for folks that were beating the drum of why don't
23:35
Speaker 3: we get somebody in here that can deliver some kind
23:38
Speaker 3: of major league offensive performance, And he'd said, well, dude,
23:40
Speaker 3: he hit what twelve home runs when he was over
23:42
Speaker 3: at third base.
23:43
Speaker 4: Yeah, and there is.
23:45
Speaker 3: A maybe it's a confidence or a calming nature that
23:48
Speaker 3: comes with that position for him, because it's it's clear
23:51
Speaker 3: that since this has happened, he has had his best
23:54
Speaker 3: offensive run probably since his rookie year.
23:56
Speaker 1: Absolutely, and whatever it was you you think, you know,
23:59
Speaker 1: you could see that burden being lifted of shortstop, whatever
24:01
Speaker 1: it was. He was playing great defense, but all of
24:03
Speaker 1: a sudden in the Rollies are now just handling it
24:06
Speaker 1: so well and able to flourish a little more offensively,
24:09
Speaker 1: which is, you know, in the back of my mind
24:11
Speaker 1: what I always remembered seeing two years ago. The thing
24:13
Speaker 1: about it, too, Billy, is that's a coach's dream. That
24:16
Speaker 1: that that's a parent that's like what a coach is
24:18
Speaker 1: teaching every kid to look at joy Orties, look at
24:21
Speaker 1: the way he handled adversity.
24:22
Speaker 4: That's absolutely the way to do it.
24:23
Speaker 1: To all the reasons you said, Cooper's come up, He's
24:26
Speaker 1: helped him out, he's welcomed him, given him his spot.
24:29
Speaker 1: And not only and he's handled so well. Not only
24:32
Speaker 1: has he not sulked and not been a problem, he's
24:35
Speaker 1: been the opposite. He's thrived in this role.
24:37
Speaker 4: He's three.
24:38
Speaker 1: He reminds me of Monasterio a bit, even though Monasterian
24:40
Speaker 1: never had a starting job. He's thrived in this role. Billy,
24:43
Speaker 1: He's he's taken this and run with it. He said,
24:45
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna not only not be a problem,
24:48
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be a weapon now for my team. Off
24:50
Speaker 1: the bench, I'm gonna play great defense whether they ask me,
24:53
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be a great teammate. I'm gonna be grateful
24:55
Speaker 1: for my spot. Boy just so much to be proud
24:58
Speaker 1: of the joy orties and always had handled it. And
25:01
Speaker 1: he's so much to model after for young players, young people.
25:04
Speaker 1: But more than anything, he's helping the Brewers win. In
25:07
Speaker 1: my opinion, I said this, instead of being a burden
25:10
Speaker 1: now on that lineup, he's become a weapon in his
25:12
Speaker 1: role because a guy that can come off the bench,
25:14
Speaker 1: play great defense at multiple positions, and is now all
25:17
Speaker 1: of a sudden, flashing the bat the way he is.
25:20
Speaker 1: Who knows how long it'll last, but he's clearly turned
25:22
Speaker 1: it around a little bit and he's become one of
25:25
Speaker 1: the better utility defensive in interior defensive and this way
25:29
Speaker 1: he's handled it, the way, the attitude, all this stuff.
25:32
Speaker 1: It's going to continue to get him jobs in the
25:33
Speaker 1: major leagues because of it. Might not be down the
25:35
Speaker 1: road with the Brewers, but teams will want to pick
25:37
Speaker 1: him up now because of what they know the situation.
25:40
Speaker 1: He'll take the situation, he'll handle it well. He'll be
25:42
Speaker 1: a you know, a solid player in that role, especially
25:45
Speaker 1: on defense, and he'll take what he's paid and then
25:47
Speaker 1: and he'll deal with it.
25:48
Speaker 4: So got to love what you see there from Jorge.
25:50
Speaker 1: He's a piece of the puzzle here and but he
25:53
Speaker 1: personifies I think the team aspect of the Milwaukee Brewers
25:56
Speaker 1: this year.
25:57
Speaker 3: In his last thirty days or it's he's his slowing
26:00
Speaker 3: two seventy one, three oh seven and four eighty six.
26:03
Speaker 3: That's for a grand ops total of seven ninety two.
26:06
Speaker 4: Awesome, just awesome for him.
26:08
Speaker 3: I mean the old line of demarcations ops wise was
26:11
Speaker 3: like seven hundred basic average major league player, maybe a
26:14
Speaker 3: tick above the eight hundreds, and a tick above is
26:17
Speaker 3: like all Star plays, So like that's a that's an
26:20
Speaker 3: impressive offensive performance.
26:22
Speaker 4: Now again it's a month, and.
26:25
Speaker 3: I still believe if a situation would present itself that
26:29
Speaker 3: I still think you could upgrade there because of what
26:31
Speaker 3: you mentioned. However, you have him on the team, he's
26:36
Speaker 3: going to be an additive defensively, and then whatever you
26:39
Speaker 3: get offensively, I think is somewhat of just a bonus, right,
26:42
Speaker 3: and this is a really nice bonus that you keep
26:45
Speaker 3: hoping and then you want two more coins and then
26:46
Speaker 3: you get five more free games. You want this bonus
26:49
Speaker 3: to continue to roll. But it doesn't appear as we're
26:53
Speaker 3: two weeks away from the deadline, and this is kind
26:55
Speaker 3: of where a lot of the conversations still come to.
26:57
Speaker 3: It doesn't appear that there is the one guy, one
27:01
Speaker 3: size fits all keyer all over at third base like
27:04
Speaker 3: it felt like there was a year ago with Suarez. Right,
27:06
Speaker 3: there's not the one offensive name that everybody is going
27:10
Speaker 3: to beat the drum for because I don't think there's
27:13
Speaker 3: clearly one, right, Like Aeronato is interesting. He just became
27:16
Speaker 3: the sixth active player to get two thousand hits last night,
27:19
Speaker 3: and he's having a really, really good offensive year. He's
27:22
Speaker 3: a former Platinum Glove Award winner. He's not giving you
27:24
Speaker 3: that same thing defensively now, But like as I'm saying,
27:27
Speaker 3: you've got to squint almost to try to find the
27:30
Speaker 3: guys that are somewhat available that would fit that spot.
27:33
Speaker 3: It's coming in a good time for him because I
27:35
Speaker 3: don't know that they are clearly able to add and
27:38
Speaker 3: replace at that spot. Get better, and he's he's getting better.
27:42
Speaker 3: So if this is even somewhat of the offensive performance
27:47
Speaker 3: you get for him going forward, pretty dang good. Eight
27:49
Speaker 3: seven seven to seven nine four one nine seven three
27:51
Speaker 3: is one of the ways that you can get in
27:52
Speaker 3: touch with us on the talking text line. Can also
27:54
Speaker 3: tweet us, where you can also watch the show at Armansarian.
27:58
Speaker 4: The old handle is that you can find me again again.
28:01
Speaker 4: Yes you can. I'm back again on Twitter, thankfully you can.
28:04
Speaker 4: Where are you at?
28:05
Speaker 3: Okay, you're let me let me do the quick gut
28:07
Speaker 3: check here. You're already at four hundred and seventy five
28:10
Speaker 3: followers again, which is pretty impressive, which is great, But
28:13
Speaker 3: you know what, Billy, you started at legitimately zero a
28:16
Speaker 3: week ago zero. And but you know what, Billy, that's
28:19
Speaker 3: a funny thing because if you start to care about
28:21
Speaker 3: it too much, it can eat you up. So I'm
28:23
Speaker 3: not gonna let you care about the followers too much,
28:25
Speaker 3: because then you're gonna start doing getting ready with Me
28:28
Speaker 3: videos on you and that's not what anybody signed up for.
28:30
Speaker 3: If that's what you got the damn account back for,
28:32
Speaker 3: shut it down.
28:33
Speaker 1: Now. You gotta be doing it for the right reasons,
28:35
Speaker 1: so you I gained a little perspective on this aspect
28:38
Speaker 1: specifically when I was when I was hacked and basically
28:41
Speaker 1: locked out of my Twitter account, and you realize, you
28:44
Speaker 1: know what, it's not about that.
28:45
Speaker 4: Life's about more than that.
28:46
Speaker 1: So just be happy about the conversation about what it
28:50
Speaker 1: is about having the voice. But if I start getting
28:52
Speaker 1: wrapped up in the followers, I don't want to do that, Billy,
28:54
Speaker 1: because I almost had ten thousand.
28:56
Speaker 4: I don't want that to eat me up.
28:57
Speaker 3: Well, you know what, we're going to get you twenty thousand.
29:00
Speaker 3: You know what, Let's just get him to a thoulan.
29:03
Speaker 3: Let's get you to one hundred thousand. How about that, Bilshman.
29:06
Speaker 4: But I think the.
29:07
Speaker 1: Point is now that it's the perspective of it's not
29:09
Speaker 1: about the followers, right, It's not about that.
29:10
Speaker 4: So I'm happy if anybody wants to follow me.
29:13
Speaker 1: I'd love for you to come back on board at
29:15
Speaker 1: armand Sarian, same handle.
29:17
Speaker 4: It's a different competencation. Just how it sounds, you gotta
29:20
Speaker 4: find it for me.
29:20
Speaker 1: Guess, just like it sounds, you gotta find it and
29:23
Speaker 1: come follow me.
29:24
Speaker 4: A lot of fun.
29:24
Speaker 3: But our friend Ken in the Falls follows. I believe
29:28
Speaker 3: he follows me as well at Filschmid Radio. I wouldn't
29:30
Speaker 3: say don't follow me. I don't know that. I have
29:32
Speaker 3: a whole lot of interesting stuff. Other than if you
29:34
Speaker 3: like following the show, you get the show.
29:35
Speaker 4: Every guy. I think you get the show every day.
29:38
Speaker 4: Just because you don't tweet every day, it doesn't mean
29:39
Speaker 4: you shouldn't be followed.
29:40
Speaker 3: Billy, Well, that's very nice. Yeah, thank you, Ken, said Brewers.
29:45
Speaker 3: Being the best team in baseball is a phenomenal feat
29:47
Speaker 3: for this team. After all the injuries they've had to overcome,
29:50
Speaker 3: they're still managing injuries with their pitching staff. The additions
29:53
Speaker 3: of Laura and Pratt hab in solid moves by the
29:55
Speaker 3: GM Matt Arnold and Cooper Pratt taking over shortstop is
29:58
Speaker 3: giving Joey Ortiz new opportunity He's to be a better
30:01
Speaker 3: MLB player. Orti said last year that playing shortstop was nothing,
30:06
Speaker 3: was nothing, something he was prepared for. The stress on
30:10
Speaker 3: him mentally or physically was demanding, and it hurt his bat.
30:13
Speaker 3: Murphy and Arnold making the right moves this season again,
30:16
Speaker 3: but more is needed if this team is going to
30:18
Speaker 3: win its first World Series. A big bat and a
30:21
Speaker 3: solid third starter is still needed in my opinion, and
30:24
Speaker 3: I don't believe that that is out of the conversation.
30:29
Speaker 4: I also I also don't know.
30:31
Speaker 3: Though, like bat wise again, I would be in on that.
30:35
Speaker 3: I also think, and this is a crazy idea, but
30:39
Speaker 3: he has doubled in three in the last four games.
30:41
Speaker 3: I think your best offensive player you're going to add
30:45
Speaker 3: is Bryce Terrang hitting the way that he had in
30:47
Speaker 3: the first two months, or hitting the way he hit
30:49
Speaker 3: in August of a year ago. Him right, Christian Yelich
30:54
Speaker 3: not having a six hundred oh ps for six weeks,
30:56
Speaker 3: that's a tough one, right, Like I like those to me,
30:59
Speaker 3: the internal improvement. However, it ends up being maybe Andrew
31:02
Speaker 3: Vaughan's beat continues to get into the lineup a little
31:04
Speaker 3: bit more impressive that he's been able to continue to
31:07
Speaker 3: produce when he has baseball gods owed him one last night,
31:11
Speaker 3: owed him one last night because he's been hitting into
31:13
Speaker 3: some tough luck and some screamers off that bat.
31:16
Speaker 4: But I think you need more.
31:19
Speaker 3: Arms, like a third starter is nice that they desperately
31:23
Speaker 3: need somebody in the starting rotation. But I also when
31:27
Speaker 3: I asked Hunter about it yesterday, of who do you
31:31
Speaker 3: get more angst about right now in your mentions and
31:34
Speaker 3: when you're talking Brewers baseball with folks, because people are
31:36
Speaker 3: always talking baseball with Hunter always.
31:38
Speaker 4: It's actually one of our favorite things to do, is.
31:43
Speaker 3: It Aaron Ashby or Christian Yelich, Because yet Ashby for
31:48
Speaker 3: the first eight weeks of the year was one of
31:51
Speaker 3: the greatest weapons in baseball. Now he's averaging a runner
31:55
Speaker 3: in a half an inning, if not more, and you
31:58
Speaker 3: know he's been used a lot, so let's understand absolutely,
32:01
Speaker 3: So so that's where the workload because you just watched
32:04
Speaker 3: what it did Jared Kanig this past year, right, Like
32:07
Speaker 3: you need somebody else leverage wise, that you can put
32:10
Speaker 3: back there. I don't know if you're going to see
32:12
Speaker 3: them this week, because I don't know if the Mets
32:14
Speaker 3: are going to use their leverage guys. They got two
32:16
Speaker 3: lefties there in Minter and the other name is escaping
32:19
Speaker 3: me in the back end of the bullpen. That would
32:21
Speaker 3: be very nice additions, that would be very helpful. I
32:23
Speaker 3: think the multiple arms to me is still where you
32:26
Speaker 3: gotta go. But to Ken's point, there's still a couple
32:30
Speaker 3: of additions, and it does field. We've said it a
32:33
Speaker 3: number of times, and I know we're still a good
32:35
Speaker 3: week away from real deals getting done, but you're in
32:39
Speaker 3: a spot where it's too hard to not strike while
32:41
Speaker 3: the irons high.
32:41
Speaker 4: You're doing it again. Last night, the Dodgers lost, Brewers won.
32:44
Speaker 3: Cubs also lost in extra innings, so didn't have to
32:48
Speaker 3: pick and choose which race house paying attention to last night.
32:51
Speaker 4: Both of them are good.
32:52
Speaker 3: We're the best team in baseball after one hundred games,
32:55
Speaker 3: and you have the best farm system in all of
32:57
Speaker 3: baseball and potentially something that you like the most, and
33:01
Speaker 3: our forecasting is maybe the better MLB players aren't even
33:04
Speaker 3: yet into the top.
33:06
Speaker 4: One hundred of that. That's right, that's right, Billy.
33:08
Speaker 3: It is time, as one Kevin Green would say, it
33:11
Speaker 3: is time.
33:12
Speaker 4: I don't know what that means.
33:13
Speaker 3: If that's that's not trading five of your top seven
33:16
Speaker 3: to one hundred prospects, sure, sure, that's maybe trading three
33:20
Speaker 3: of them in somebody else, or two or some two
33:22
Speaker 3: or three other guys around.
33:25
Speaker 4: Maybe it's from the major league team.
33:26
Speaker 3: But you have put yourself in the clubhouses deserved after
33:30
Speaker 3: what they have put through and put forth in the
33:33
Speaker 3: first hundred games, they deserve legit additions.
33:36
Speaker 4: And I think if you can add anywhere and it's
33:38
Speaker 4: a great player or a really you know, good player.
33:40
Speaker 1: That can push you up into margins, it doesn't matter
33:42
Speaker 1: if you already think it's a position of strength, because
33:45
Speaker 1: you're going to help yourself wherever you can and get
33:47
Speaker 1: those margins pushed up wherever you can. It doesn't have
33:50
Speaker 1: to be that one size fits all, like we think
33:52
Speaker 1: right now pitchings is strengthen it is. But if you
33:54
Speaker 1: can get another picture that's available, you take what's available,
33:57
Speaker 1: You take what the market gives you, and you try
33:59
Speaker 1: it and prove yourself anywhere you can.
34:01
Speaker 4: If you think you're really good, one position get great.
34:03
Speaker 1: If you think your great one position gets so great
34:05
Speaker 1: that that it can overcome every other deficiency for you.
34:09
Speaker 4: I think that's the way to look at it.
34:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, Offensively, I think you're I'm not gonna say you're good,
34:14
Speaker 3: but you're scoring some of the most runs in baseball,
34:16
Speaker 3: scoring run you're the best team in baseball. I think offensively,
34:20
Speaker 3: your best improvement is your own players hitting better.
34:23
Speaker 4: But could you pitching wise? You need some arms arms. Well, listen,
34:27
Speaker 4: I mean Joey rt is gonna hit five homers a month.
34:29
Speaker 1: The good thing is, and I'll make the prediction now,
34:31
Speaker 1: Joey Ortiz will win a whole World Series for US
34:33
Speaker 1: this year. Is going to hit a home run to
34:36
Speaker 1: win a World Series for US?
34:38
Speaker 4: Isn't it gonna be awesome? So he's gonna go hardcore,
34:40
Speaker 4: Joe Carter, is what you're saying. Yeah, I don't know
34:42
Speaker 4: if it's technically you should have done this tomorrow.
34:45
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is hot, take home think I love this, though,
34:49
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's a straight walk off.
34:51
Speaker 4: Sure, so it might not be a Kirby Pucket.
34:53
Speaker 1: One thing we know about Joey Ortiz is he finds
34:55
Speaker 1: himself in big situations of the play.
34:57
Speaker 4: Early with the bases loaded to him.
34:59
Speaker 1: This is the He's gonna win it with for us
35:00
Speaker 1: this year with some sort of crazy home run.
35:03
Speaker 4: It's gonna be amazing too when it happened.
35:05
Speaker 3: If you'd also like to put something like that out
35:06
Speaker 3: into the ether, it's eight seven seven seven nine four three.
35:09
Speaker 3: You can get at the show on YouTube and xts
35:11
Speaker 3: and Facebook. We got more comments right there. We got
35:13
Speaker 3: our friend Mike and Merril here with a good one
35:15
Speaker 3: on the talking text line. We're gonna get to report quickly.
35:17
Speaker 3: Right on the other side, we're gonna hear from Hunter Bombguard.
35:19
Speaker 3: He was at the game last night. He's got a
35:21
Speaker 3: report for us, and you're gonna hear it coming up
35:23
Speaker 3: on the other side. As Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. It's
35:25
Speaker 3: the huddle. Stay with us.
35:32
Speaker 6: There's one left hand. Oh my goodness, he's gone hank
35:39
Speaker 6: ring on us. Andrew Vaughk just a third of the year.
35:44
Speaker 6: BURLEYE hits the slide tremendous.
35:49
Speaker 3: The sounds from Brewers TV, Brian Anderson and Billy Aaron
35:54
Speaker 3: and Bill Schroeder on the call yesterday in that third
35:57
Speaker 3: inning when Andrew Vaughn Goes Hank Aaron celebration yesterday, the
36:01
Speaker 3: fiftieth anniversary of Hammer and Hank's seven hundred and fifty
36:07
Speaker 3: fifth home run, his last home run, and an incredible
36:11
Speaker 3: amount the stories of that inning when she had to
36:19
Speaker 3: partially helped convince when Bud Seely was trying to bring
36:22
Speaker 3: Hank Aaron back, he didn't necessarily know that he wanted
36:25
Speaker 3: to be that kind of player, as he's like the
36:27
Speaker 3: newest skills, it diminished to a different point. That was
36:30
Speaker 3: just it was so cool to be able to hear
36:33
Speaker 3: people talk about Hank Aaron again and to be able
36:36
Speaker 3: to have those stories. Great work by Ba like that
36:38
Speaker 3: interview was phenomenal that inning, being able to weave in
36:41
Speaker 3: and out, well.
36:42
Speaker 1: You wouldn't want anybody but Ba there for that moment,
36:44
Speaker 1: and it was pretty cool. I know there's more of
36:45
Speaker 1: that of her exalting the home run a little bit.
36:48
Speaker 1: It was a lot of fun to watch. I'll try
36:51
Speaker 1: and find it, but just so cool and what a
36:53
Speaker 1: blessing it was to have Hank back in.
36:55
Speaker 4: A Brewers uniform as well as in Milwaukee Brams uniform.
36:57
Speaker 1: So and somebody edged in the game obviously, do you
37:00
Speaker 1: think of that number. You just talked during the break
37:01
Speaker 1: about Harper hitting his two hundred with the Phillies. Billy
37:04
Speaker 1: Now put that in perspective. With seven hundred fifty five
37:06
Speaker 1: major league home runs, that's just a lot of dingers. Man,
37:09
Speaker 1: that's just absolutely amazing. He's an all time legend, one
37:12
Speaker 1: of the greatest of all time.
37:13
Speaker 3: And you knew the Brewers had to hit bombs last
37:15
Speaker 3: night for Hank Aaron Now. Granted, would I have thought
37:19
Speaker 3: maybe they hit four?
37:20
Speaker 4: I did. I thought they were gonna hit four.
37:23
Speaker 3: When Joey ordies Is hit one, I thought somebody else
37:25
Speaker 3: was getting one out of here. We were making it
37:27
Speaker 3: a four for four. But it's fine. You can go
37:29
Speaker 3: to Wendy's for that one. You always go to hunter
37:31
Speaker 3: Bombguart for your Brewers conversation, your Brewers information. It's hunter
37:35
Speaker 3: be on air where you follow him online. He had
37:37
Speaker 3: as well as at fsr WI our Twitter page and
37:40
Speaker 3: Instagram audio of Lance mcculler's junior that we're going to
37:43
Speaker 3: spin through a little bit later on. But Hunter Bombguard
37:45
Speaker 3: provided us a report from the field last night after
37:48
Speaker 3: the Brewers eight three dub over the Mets.
37:51
Speaker 2: Thanks guys, The Brewers beat the Mets last night eight
37:53
Speaker 2: to three, seven earned runs on the line of Freddy
37:55
Speaker 2: Peralta against his former team, Brewers got to him early
37:58
Speaker 2: and often. Cooper Pratt first home run in the major leagues.
38:02
Speaker 4: He talked about it after the game.
38:03
Speaker 7: I felt like there's been time since Game one. But no,
38:06
Speaker 7: I mean finally, but I mean we won, so it's
38:09
Speaker 7: even better.
38:10
Speaker 4: What did you think of the silent treatment for your teammates.
38:13
Speaker 7: I was so amped up I couldn't even I didn't
38:15
Speaker 7: I didn't care. I mean, it was cool. I was
38:17
Speaker 7: just so happy to get it out of the way.
38:19
Speaker 4: But yeah, it was.
38:20
Speaker 7: It was cool. How much was that weighing on you?
38:23
Speaker 2: Right, Like you don't want to necessarily like.
38:25
Speaker 3: Change your swing and troll go try to chase Homers,
38:28
Speaker 3: But that was a weigh on you too.
38:31
Speaker 7: I didn't get it, Yes, and no, I mean I wasn't,
38:33
Speaker 7: like obviously I wanted to do it. I got close
38:35
Speaker 7: a couple of times, but I didn't go end up
38:37
Speaker 7: trying to hit it. I mean, it was in the
38:39
Speaker 7: back of my head, but I was just trying to
38:42
Speaker 7: hit a fastball, I know, a slider and it snuck out.
38:46
Speaker 4: So now on the mound.
38:47
Speaker 2: Jacob Azarowski only won four innings and sixty five pitches,
38:50
Speaker 2: whereas manager Pat Murphy explained why he pulled him so early.
38:54
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think he was a little bit out of bit.
38:56
Speaker 5: You know, the long wayoff kind of affected his delivery
38:58
Speaker 5: and everything else. I think it was important to notice
39:02
Speaker 5: that and get him out of there. Then it's velow dropped,
39:05
Speaker 5: he couldn't find the rhythm on his heater and you know,
39:08
Speaker 5: went to all off speed stuff. I think it was
39:11
Speaker 5: important we got him out of there.
39:12
Speaker 2: And Jacob Iszerowski echoed those sentiments when we talked to
39:15
Speaker 2: him afterwards.
39:16
Speaker 4: Yeah, of course. Yeah.
39:17
Speaker 1: I mean I felt like I, you know, it wasn't
39:19
Speaker 1: in my legs as well as I should have been,
39:21
Speaker 1: but no, I felt a halfway easierly good enough.
39:25
Speaker 2: So something to monitor with Jacob Ezerowski. The Brewers have
39:27
Speaker 2: the best record in baseball at sixty three and thirty seven.
39:29
Speaker 2: That's also their best mark through one hundred games in
39:32
Speaker 2: franchise history. This report promti by Important Minded your trusted
39:35
Speaker 2: Joyce for exceptional vehicle care on Sound twenty seventh, just
39:38
Speaker 2: north of eight ninety four.
39:39
Speaker 4: Back to you guys, Hunter.
39:40
Speaker 3: Great work, great sound and Miserowski talking about it. You
39:43
Speaker 3: could tell wasn't necessarily his sharpest last night. That's to
39:47
Speaker 3: be expected, coming back and then taking twelve days off
39:51
Speaker 3: when you used to go in every fifth or sixth day. However,
39:53
Speaker 3: most important is that we are going to get him
39:56
Speaker 3: available coming up for the stretch run eight seven to seven,
39:59
Speaker 3: sevent nine four one nine seventy three. Talking text lines
40:01
Speaker 3: always available. Mike and Merrill said, I listened to Freddie
40:04
Speaker 3: Peralta's postgame interview last night on the Mercedes Benz Mets channel.
40:09
Speaker 1: Had audio problems all night, little nightmare fuel for me.
40:12
Speaker 1: I heard some double audio on their highlights.
40:14
Speaker 4: Oh damn.
40:15
Speaker 3: Based on TV, I don't know if that was what
40:16
Speaker 3: it was for radio. But so do you listen to
40:19
Speaker 3: stuff and just feel terrible for engineers and producers? Are
40:24
Speaker 3: you able to listen to a broadcast and not well,
40:27
Speaker 3: what's happening audio wise?
40:29
Speaker 1: Not that I sit there and tell you I know
40:30
Speaker 1: these guys, I feel bad. I don't know them, but
40:33
Speaker 1: I know there's someone out there. You know that situation,
40:35
Speaker 1: though you know how you would be in that situation.
40:38
Speaker 1: It's more Pavloviian of a nightmare. It's like the it's
40:41
Speaker 1: like the horror that you know so you don't want.
40:45
Speaker 1: It's not about I like to say, it's about empathizing
40:48
Speaker 1: with like a different guy that I don't know, And
40:49
Speaker 1: it's not.
40:50
Speaker 4: It's more of like I know of.
40:53
Speaker 3: You banking the idea that it happens to somebody else,
40:56
Speaker 3: so how you can cope with it when the next
40:57
Speaker 3: time it goes down on your end.
40:59
Speaker 1: It's like feeling that pitting your stomach over again. And
41:01
Speaker 1: I don't know what it's like Pavlovian.
41:03
Speaker 3: So does it just transport you back to a moment
41:05
Speaker 3: where all of a sudden you're not able to get
41:07
Speaker 3: Wayne and Larry and you're about three minutes still they start.
41:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's what transports itself to my nightmares. As
41:13
Speaker 1: we get close to the season, fifty.
41:15
Speaker 3: Days away from football, fifty days away from the kickoff
41:18
Speaker 3: of the National Football League regular.
41:20
Speaker 4: Season, the preseason, yeah, oh are you ready?
41:24
Speaker 3: But we all know that answer, yes, yes much, And
41:29
Speaker 3: I will get the rest of Mike's text coming up
41:31
Speaker 3: on the other side, and all of yours. Five o'clock
41:33
Speaker 3: club is closed. We roll into six next on Fox
