Speaker 2: you asked nicely. I will let the people know about

2:18
Speaker 2: was it Reggie? Reggie very excited about that as well. Yeah,

Speaker 2: Is it expresspros dot com today? That's expresspros dot com.
2:45
Speaker 2: So our lead this hour play the head small man
2:48
Speaker 2: play as well go to baseball, gonna get away from
2:50
Speaker 2: the basketball for baseball, and an interesting short. We talked
2:54
Speaker 2: about this in a previous episode of the show. It's
2:57
Speaker 2: back yet again. Our lead from detrou and a lot
3:02
Speaker 2: of chatter over the weekend, a lot of chatter. The
3:05
Speaker 2: streets are talking, and every indication is the Detroit Tigers
3:10
Speaker 2: have put a open for business sign in front of
3:14
Speaker 2: the front office there and they are ready to say
3:17
Speaker 2: bye bye to Trek's Schoobel the ace in Motown, and
3:23
Speaker 2: not for long, it would appears everything indicating over the
3:26
Speaker 2: weekend that the Tigers are closing in on a trade.
3:29
Speaker 2: Today is June first. I don't know if you know
3:31
Speaker 2: that the trade deadline is at the end of July. Now,
3:36
Speaker 2: there's two schools of thought on the trade deadline. The
3:38
Speaker 2: first school of thought is wait until the very end,
3:41
Speaker 2: and at the eleventh hour you trade the player because
3:45
Speaker 2: you're gonna have teams bidding and it's gonna be great
3:47
Speaker 2: and all that stuff. And then the other argument is
3:50
Speaker 2: to trade the player early because the team that gets
3:54
Speaker 2: him will have the player for an extra month.
3:56
Speaker 1: I know Schoobl's been battling loose bodies and all that.
4:00
Speaker 2: So the other trade them early, you get a little
4:02
Speaker 2: more in return, and then you can have your pick
4:05
Speaker 2: of the litter, meaning that the other top minor league
4:09
Speaker 2: players haven't been traded yet. A prospect is a suspect
4:13
Speaker 2: until it prove otherwise anyway.
4:14
Speaker 1: So that's the noise.
4:15
Speaker 2: I weren't plugged in on this, perhaps not the reports
4:18
Speaker 2: out of Detroit. A lot of bitching and complaining, belly
4:22
Speaker 2: aching as all. This is why baseball needs a sorry cap.
4:26
Speaker 2: I saw that baseball needs a cap because the Tigers
4:29
Speaker 2: have to trade Scooble.
4:31
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're gonna stink.
4:33
Speaker 2: They're gonna trade them with the Dodgers or the Yankees,
4:36
Speaker 2: and is not fair because the Tigers can't afford to
4:39
Speaker 2: keep them. That was the popular opinion. Yeah, well that's
4:43
Speaker 2: really the issue. Is the stink. That's the issue here,
4:47
Speaker 2: and it is a good jumping off point. Let us
4:49
Speaker 2: discuss the question. Is it true that the Tigers can't
4:56
Speaker 2: afford can't afford to keep the ace of they're pitching staff,
5:01
Speaker 2: Trek Schouoble, and that Major League Baseball desperately needs a
5:05
Speaker 2: salary cap because of these type moves. So I've got
5:09
Speaker 2: chronic case lighthouse keeper and first lady, and we will
5:16
Speaker 2: combine all of these things together, and you and I
5:19
Speaker 2: are going to educate the Dinga Links. We're going to
5:22
Speaker 2: help out the Dinga Links.
5:23
Speaker 3: Now.
5:23
Speaker 2: Number one, the idea that there are factions of the
5:29
Speaker 2: baseball media that are claiming that Tigers have to get
5:32
Speaker 2: rid of Tarrek Schouble because of the lack of a
5:36
Speaker 2: salary cap in baseball tells you that dumb people have
5:39
Speaker 2: taken over.
5:40
Speaker 1: Right.
5:41
Speaker 2: It is pure gadzookari is the word I will use. Detroit,
5:46
Speaker 2: first of all, is not a small market, and they're
5:50
Speaker 2: not some kind of victim of the system trying to
5:52
Speaker 2: hold the man down. That's not true at all. They
5:55
Speaker 2: are small ambition in terms of operations what they are.
6:00
Speaker 2: That's what I asked. What I would say. Listen, they
6:02
Speaker 2: were expected to be a contender. They had a playoff
6:03
Speaker 2: run last year in Detroit. They were expected. We all
6:06
Speaker 2: know the story. You like baseball. The Tigers are supposed
6:08
Speaker 2: to be pretty good this year. They got that cheating
6:10
Speaker 2: a hole manager on that team, and they're ready to
6:13
Speaker 2: take off, all right and contender for the World Series.
6:17
Speaker 2: And here we sit, and to quote the kids, the
6:20
Speaker 2: Detroit Tigers have been absolutely ass so far this season.
6:24
Speaker 1: Not my opinion.
6:25
Speaker 2: It's a fact that Detroit Tigers are tied with the
6:28
Speaker 2: Colorado Rockies as they are the worst team in baseball.
6:34
Speaker 2: The Tigers and Rockies are dead even as Yeah, that's
6:39
Speaker 2: total ass and Detroit.
6:41
Speaker 1: I did the malor math on this.
6:42
Speaker 2: If my math is corrected, Tigers are on pace to
6:44
Speaker 2: lose one hundred and two games. The Motor City Kiddies
6:48
Speaker 2: have been declawed. And so that's the issue here. The
6:52
Speaker 2: issue is not that the salary is the problem. That's
6:57
Speaker 2: not at all. The Tigers are not poor. They're not
7:01
Speaker 2: the Tigers, you know.
7:03
Speaker 1: What they are. They like the guy at dinner.
7:05
Speaker 2: You go out with some friends to dinner, and the
7:07
Speaker 2: guy all of a sudden gets one of the guys
7:09
Speaker 2: at the table gets us a chronic case of alligator arms.
7:13
Speaker 2: Right when the check arrives, suddenly alligator arms camp. I
7:16
Speaker 2: don't know where my wallet is, I don't I don't
7:19
Speaker 2: know what to do. What am I gonna do? I
7:21
Speaker 2: don't know what to do? It is right there. And
7:24
Speaker 2: then they these teams, it's ridiculous with the chatter, oh
7:28
Speaker 2: we can't afford this guy and that guy. The Tigers
7:32
Speaker 2: they're acting like the pirates. Yet they the guy that
7:36
Speaker 2: owns the Tigers, now he didn't make the money his dad,
7:39
Speaker 2: his dad's dad. But they own Little Caesars. You can't
7:43
Speaker 2: cry poor when the family business is literally pizza pizza. Okay,
7:48
Speaker 2: come on, now, it's not a poverty franchise.
7:51
Speaker 1: It's not. It's old family money.
7:54
Speaker 2: And that's always an issue, right old fam Look at
7:56
Speaker 2: the Raiders, Mark Davis, he's his dad made all the
7:59
Speaker 2: money for the family. He inherited it, and the no
8:01
Speaker 2: he's doing so. He hired Tom Brady, who also doesn't
8:04
Speaker 2: know he's own And the Detroit Tigers, Mike Ilich desperately
8:09
Speaker 2: wanted to win.
8:09
Speaker 1: Didn't work out. They didn't win. They got to the.
8:11
Speaker 2: World Series back in the Verlander before Verlanders sullied his
8:15
Speaker 2: name by going to the cheating a holes and all that,
8:17
Speaker 2: and so you look around, you're like, Okay, the Tigers
8:21
Speaker 2: their situation, they don't they have money. It's old family money.
8:26
Speaker 2: And baseball does not need a salary cap. Baseball should
8:29
Speaker 2: not have a salary cap, Sam I am. It needs owners.
8:33
Speaker 2: This is the biggest fundamental problem with baseball. Nobody wants
8:36
Speaker 2: to talk about it. A lot of people that bought
8:38
Speaker 2: teams that don't care about winning. It's just another part
8:43
Speaker 2: of the spreadsheet. It's just another line item, and how
8:47
Speaker 2: much money can we make. Our revenues aren't good enough,
8:49
Speaker 2: so we need to increase revenues. Let's put a cap,
8:52
Speaker 2: and all the fans are idiots, they'll sign off on it.
8:54
Speaker 2: Of course, nobody wants their salary cap. But the moron
8:57
Speaker 2: baseball fans, the rank and file, they're losers, and they're like, hey, we.
9:01
Speaker 1: Want a salarycap.
9:02
Speaker 4: Of course you do.
9:03
Speaker 1: Let's help the owners make more money. Who says no
9:06
Speaker 1: to that. Let's help the rich guys make more money. Okay,
9:09
Speaker 1: that seems great.
9:10
Speaker 2: Moron anyway, So again, just to recap the tiger part
9:14
Speaker 2: of this, and we'll talk more about the cap. But
9:16
Speaker 2: what we're witnessing is a competitive imbalance. It is it's
9:21
Speaker 2: not even an imbalance, it's a competitive indifference.
9:24
Speaker 1: Is the word I will use. Imbalance is the wrong word.
9:27
Speaker 2: Indifference all right now, Page two to LA where the
9:30
Speaker 2: Phillies got smashed by the Doyers on Sunday. Prior to
9:35
Speaker 2: the game, though, Philadelphia Phillies start Bryce Harper in town
9:39
Speaker 2: and Bryce Harper expressed concern for the ongoing labor kerfluffle
9:47
Speaker 2: that is going on between the owners and the players
9:50
Speaker 2: and the very serious risk of a lockout that is
9:55
Speaker 2: likely going to happen here and jeopardize many doom and gloomers,
9:59
Speaker 2: saying for the last year two years that there'll be
10:01
Speaker 2: no twenty twenty seven season, So if you like baseball,
10:04
Speaker 2: you might want to watch it now because it'll be
10:05
Speaker 2: going away for the following year. Bryce Harper said, quote,
10:11
Speaker 2: we can't lose that momentum. Who wants to tell Bryce
10:15
Speaker 2: Harper there's no such thing as momentum anybody? Okay, Patty
10:18
Speaker 2: said He'll do it, So Patty'll let Bryce know that
10:20
Speaker 2: there is no such thing as momentum. Sure enough, he said, quote,
10:23
Speaker 2: we can't lose that momentum. We both have to understand
10:27
Speaker 2: our game is in a great position right now to succeed.
10:31
Speaker 1: Close.
10:31
Speaker 5: Quote.
10:32
Speaker 2: Now, there was some other stuff, but that's the money quote.
10:34
Speaker 2: That's the money quote. So the question explain Bryce Harper's
10:38
Speaker 2: messaging to the MLB owners over the labor talks, which
10:44
Speaker 2: are right now at they're at loggerheads and it's not
10:48
Speaker 2: looking great. It's early on a lot of these things.
10:51
Speaker 2: Only happen at deadlines. So explain the question again. Explain
10:55
Speaker 2: Bryce Harper and his message to the owners regarding MLB's
10:59
Speaker 2: labor talks. So Bryce Harper, think.
11:02
Speaker 1: Of him like this.
11:03
Speaker 2: He's like in Maine, He's the keeper of a lighthouse.
11:06
Speaker 2: He's a lighthouse keeper in Maine, and he's frantically waving
11:10
Speaker 2: his arms. He's like he's trying to get attention for
11:13
Speaker 2: the boat that's coming in. He's trying to warn the
11:16
Speaker 2: billionaires party yacht that is full of clueless rich guys
11:23
Speaker 2: not to smash into the rocks. So he's in the lighthouse.
11:27
Speaker 2: He's the lighthouse keeper by starboard, desperately trying to keep
11:30
Speaker 2: them from taking the yacht kaboom right into the rocks.
11:35
Speaker 2: And baseball it's perceived to be cooler. Is it finally
11:40
Speaker 2: really really cool? These things have cycles, They go hot
11:45
Speaker 2: and cold. Baseball was cold for a while. It certainly
11:47
Speaker 2: seems like it's in a different spot now. It seems
11:51
Speaker 2: like baseball matters more now than it did in years past. However,
11:56
Speaker 2: the owners are about to turn into apps elute pyromaniacs.
12:02
Speaker 2: The baseball owners here, and Harper's message to the oligarchs
12:06
Speaker 2: is pretty simple. His message to the oligarchs is you
12:10
Speaker 2: are playing with fire. Dumb, dumb, what are you doing?
12:14
Speaker 2: And the salary cap it is a zombie proposal. I'm
12:17
Speaker 2: telling you, it's a zombie proposal. It's d ea d dead,
12:23
Speaker 2: and yet the owners dragging around. I remember when I
12:26
Speaker 2: early on in my run in the media business, and
12:29
Speaker 2: way back in the nineties, they they missed the World Series.
12:33
Speaker 2: Kevin Malone, who was the gym of the Montreal Expos,
12:36
Speaker 2: swore to me he went worked for the Dodgers, that
12:38
Speaker 2: the Expos would have won the World Series that year
12:40
Speaker 2: and they'd still be in Montreal. So Baseball screwed over
12:43
Speaker 2: Montreal by moving getting rid of the World Series that year.
12:46
Speaker 2: And they didn't even get a salary cap even though
12:48
Speaker 2: they wanted a salary cap. And anyway, the point of
12:50
Speaker 2: all this is the salary cap is a zombie proposal,
12:55
Speaker 2: and you can keep dragging it. You're living in fantasyland
12:59
Speaker 2: and good luck. The cap to the players is a
13:04
Speaker 2: non star, So you've got to find a different bridge.
13:06
Speaker 2: This is a bridge to nowhere, so you might as
13:08
Speaker 2: well stop paving it.
13:10
Speaker 1: What are you doing?
13:11
Speaker 2: You don't burn down this golden moment because it takes
13:15
Speaker 2: years and years to get back to this point. So
13:17
Speaker 2: why would you burn down this golden moment in a
13:20
Speaker 2: sport because you've got some tightwad, non competitive.
13:24
Speaker 1: Owners who are just not into it right.
13:26
Speaker 2: They're like, Oh, we don't really care, You're not trying
13:30
Speaker 2: to win and all that, and so we just want
13:31
Speaker 2: to make more money.
13:32
Speaker 1: And so the way you make more money is put
13:34
Speaker 1: a sary cap.
13:35
Speaker 2: So, and I'm talking about the owners of Cleveland in
13:38
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh and Tampa and Anaheim and people like that. They
13:41
Speaker 2: either refuse to spend money or are really bad at
13:44
Speaker 2: it and don't spend enough. And there's a lot of
13:47
Speaker 2: fakeness going on. So the lesson from Bryce Harper is
13:51
Speaker 2: to find another path because turning the labor negotiation into
13:57
Speaker 2: a demolition derby and losing the twenty twenty seven season,
14:01
Speaker 2: like baseball will be here at some point in twenty
14:04
Speaker 2: twenty eight or twenty twenty nine or whatever, and people
14:07
Speaker 2: will watch it, it just won't be the same. I remember
14:10
Speaker 2: after the last time they missed the World Series, they
14:13
Speaker 2: were desperately trying to get people to come back. Then
14:15
Speaker 2: they just fed the players steroids and all of a sudden,
14:17
Speaker 2: the few people came back because there were all these
14:19
Speaker 2: guys in major.
14:20
Speaker 1: Dongs all over the place.
14:22
Speaker 2: There McGuire and Bonds and all those guys, and then
14:25
Speaker 2: the band from the Hall of Fame and whatnot. All right,
14:27
Speaker 2: final point to Sacramento. That's right, big league town, Sacramento.
14:34
Speaker 2: And over the weekend, the A's manager Mark Kotze, the
14:36
Speaker 2: pride of cal State Fullerton. Mark Kotze complained about the
14:40
Speaker 2: toxicity of social media.
14:43
Speaker 1: Very upset about social.
14:44
Speaker 2: Media, complained about it, particularly how it harms players who.
14:49
Speaker 1: Are struggling for the Athletics going through the slump.
14:53
Speaker 2: Now in the context of the he's talking about the
14:57
Speaker 2: Athletics and they're playing in West Sacramento, which is apparently
15:00
Speaker 2: is much different than East Sacramento or North Sacramento or
15:03
Speaker 2: South Sacramento. I've been to Sacramento a few times. I
15:06
Speaker 2: don't even remember West Sacramento.
15:07
Speaker 1: I don't know where that came from.
15:09
Speaker 2: Anyway, The point of all this is Mark Kotze was grumbling.
15:13
Speaker 2: He was grumbling at the baseball scribes about social media.
15:19
Speaker 2: It's hard to escape, he said, when you're not performing. Nowadays,
15:24
Speaker 2: you have instant access to players through social media, especially,
15:28
Speaker 2: he said, and it's hard for players to block that out.
15:31
Speaker 1: He said.
15:31
Speaker 2: Everyone seems to have the right to be able to
15:33
Speaker 2: send negativity and hate towards those players, and so he
15:38
Speaker 2: was all defensive, he said.
15:39
Speaker 1: Back in my day.
15:40
Speaker 2: By contrast, Mark Kotze said, when he played back in
15:42
Speaker 2: the Stone Age, they just had newspapers that would take shots. Actually,
15:46
Speaker 2: newspapers used to exist sports radio, which still is around.
15:49
Speaker 2: Newspapers are pretty much dead, but they just took shots
15:53
Speaker 2: at the guys. That's how we're all right. So question,
15:55
Speaker 2: do you feel bad? Do you feel bad for the
15:59
Speaker 2: MLBA players getting hate from social media? According to A's
16:03
Speaker 2: manager Mark Kotze, it's not right. So absolutely not. Absolutely,
16:08
Speaker 2: I do not feel bad at all. The modern athlete
16:12
Speaker 2: treats social media like oxygen, and they're shocked when they realize,
16:18
Speaker 2: wait a minute, it's actually carbon monoxide. It's it's it
16:22
Speaker 2: was auction. No, it's not auction. It's carbon monoxide. Dummy,
16:26
Speaker 2: that's what it is. And it's listen, it's your phone.
16:30
Speaker 1: Okay.
16:30
Speaker 2: Ultimately, the reason that the people have access, you're giving
16:35
Speaker 2: them access in social media.
16:38
Speaker 1: And I don't go on there much anymore. I used
16:40
Speaker 1: to go on. There a lot. I cut back.
16:42
Speaker 2: I'm on during the show, and that's I might pop
16:44
Speaker 2: in once in a while during the day, but that's it.
16:47
Speaker 1: And it's it's not Guantanamo Bay.
16:50
Speaker 2: It's not these athletes, and Markotze makes it seem like
16:55
Speaker 2: these guys are being waterboarded by trolls. And how dramatic.
17:00
Speaker 2: Like the trolls. They're not invading your home. You're inviting
17:04
Speaker 2: them in. You left the door unlocked and wide open,
17:07
Speaker 2: is what she did. And years ago, I mean, and again,
17:11
Speaker 2: this is not trauma. Okay, it's not trauma. It's a
17:15
Speaker 2: settings issue on your phone. Just go to the settings,
17:18
Speaker 2: click the watch you might call it, or the dow Hickey,
17:21
Speaker 2: and then you're okay. Right, And years ago, the first Lady,
17:25
Speaker 2: Nancy Reagan, actually had it right. She said, just say no.
17:29
Speaker 2: So just say no to your mentions. Problem solved, easy, peasy.
17:35
Speaker 2: I'm an answers guy, just like baseball could have solved
17:39
Speaker 2: the pandemic, well in a pandemic. But the issue with
17:43
Speaker 2: the shift and they had to put rules in. They
17:47
Speaker 2: didn't have to put rules in.
17:48
Speaker 1: I enough guys bunt, they'll get rid of the shift.
17:52
Speaker 2: And so there's clearly a lot of people in baseball
17:54
Speaker 2: who are up twose that can't figure simple things out,
17:57
Speaker 2: Like you don't have to read them mentions, you don't
18:01
Speaker 2: the phone. I'm pretty sure it does not open itself,
18:05
Speaker 2: not yet. Give it a couple of years, it'll open itself.
18:07
Speaker 2: It does not open itself at this particular point. And
18:10
Speaker 2: so stay off the X or the Twitter. Stay off
18:13
Speaker 2: the X or the Twitter, log off and boom. Problem solved,
18:18
Speaker 2: solution solution, and social media is entirely optional. It's kind
18:25
Speaker 2: of like dessert. And if you can't help yourself, if
18:28
Speaker 2: it makes you sick, you're eating too much apple pie,
18:32
Speaker 2: then stop ordering the apple pie and you'll be okay.
18:36
Speaker 2: It baffles me, It literally baffles me. How these ballplayers
18:39
Speaker 2: preach mental toughness all the time and all this, and
18:42
Speaker 2: yet they crumble, crumble the second a guy with three
18:47
Speaker 2: followers calls them mid.
18:50
Speaker 1: Like, really, you got thick skin and all that. You're
18:53
Speaker 1: getting all worked up.

18:57

19:00
Speaker 2: that is a you problem, that is not a them problem.
19:03
Speaker 1: That is on you.
19:03
Speaker 2: You're giving them the victory is what you're doing, and
19:07
Speaker 2: you're ending up. It's like gremlins, you know, don't feed them,
19:10
Speaker 2: don't give them water, whatever. Eventually you're just gonna start multiplying,
19:14
Speaker 2: and so that's what you're doing. You can walk away anytime.

25:51
Speaker 3: what we're talking, about not restricting the amount of money in.
25:54
Speaker 3: Baseball and here's the thing that really aggraates, me it
25:56
Speaker 3: really bothers me in this whole. Thing baseball is fine
26:00
Speaker 3: on the right track to expand their game with the pitch,
26:03
Speaker 3: clock with the automated ball strike. SYSTEM i don't agree
26:07
Speaker 3: with the pizza boxes for bases and starting on second,
26:09
Speaker 3: base but they've done things to make the game more,
26:12
Speaker 3: exciting more. Watchable people are actually tuning, in locking. In
26:16
Speaker 3: and now you start with this, premise that's the salary
26:19
Speaker 3: cap a. Baseball they have the strongest union across team,
26:22
Speaker 3: sports they have the, strongest the best hall of fame
26:24
Speaker 3: across team. Sports it's not going to, Happen so you
26:27
Speaker 3: shouldn't start with that. Premise that's what bothers. Me they
26:29
Speaker 3: need to come to the table with something that where
26:31
Speaker 3: they can actually get a deal to keep this momentum.
26:34
Speaker 3: Going that's what they. Need just like when you came

32:22
Speaker 2: he's whispered about getting rid of The national And American
32:24

32:28
Speaker 2: would have all The West coast. Teams you have The, Padres, Angels, Dodgers.
32:32

Speaker 2: and maybe you'd have to Put arizona in. There just
32:40
Speaker 2: have like The southwest for, example and you have like
32:42
Speaker 2: The northeast with The, Yankees, Mets Red, Sox. Phillies you'd
32:46
