- 0:54Speaker 1: News people ask us about the last couple of years.
- 0:57Speaker 1: I don't want to give everything away yet, but I
- 1:00Speaker 1: think very promising that we will have some fun during
- 1:03Speaker 1: the Winter Meetings in person. Do you know where they
- 1:06Speaker 1: are this year? I do in Orlando, Ah, in Orlando,
- 1:08Speaker 1: our backyard.
- 1:10Speaker 2: They are. They're right, they're a Disney well not in Disney,
- 1:13Speaker 2: but they're by Disney.
- 1:15Speaker 1: Will you hang at the bar to say hi? To everyone.
- 1:17Speaker 2: You know, I'm gonna probably end up over there a lot.
- 1:19Speaker 2: I just nobody does that anymore. Though. Nobody goes to
- 1:23Speaker 2: the bar and just sits around.
- 1:25Speaker 1: I remember agree the writers and media and proc.
- 1:29Speaker 2: But none, none of the people from the teams do.
- 1:32Speaker 1: The jibs are in the Sweet Slash Bunkers the entire time.
- 1:36Speaker 2: You're lucky if you see them.
- 1:38Speaker 1: Also if they come out, what happens? Have you seen
- 1:40Speaker 1: this before years back?
- 1:42Speaker 2: But they also get attacked by not the media, but
- 1:44Speaker 2: the people looking for jobs. That's I mean, they get problem.
- 1:47Speaker 2: It's unbelievable. I had never been until I don't know,
- 1:50Speaker 2: I don't know how many years ago. They've been in
- 1:52Speaker 2: Orlando a few times, and I've been a couple of times,
- 1:54Speaker 2: and I never realized how many people just sit there
- 1:58Speaker 2: wait for and just yes, and they just and if
- 2:02Speaker 2: they see you, like they see me and recognize me
- 2:04Speaker 2: and they're like, hey, can you introduce me to who what?
- 2:08Speaker 2: I'm like? No, like, no, I can't, No.
- 2:14Speaker 1: I can't. There are tons of aspiring workers in the
- 2:19Speaker 1: industry who attend there's a job fair. There's a lot
- 2:23Speaker 1: on the minor league side that happens, which is important.
- 2:26Speaker 1: So if you're trying to crack baseball, usually the minor
- 2:29Speaker 1: leagues is the best way to go. Yes, they do
- 2:30Speaker 1: have opportunities there where minor league gms or whatever the
- 2:35Speaker 1: in front offices they're calling them. They will meet with
- 2:39Speaker 1: students and recent grads.
- 2:41Speaker 2: People forget the minor leagues are at the Winter meetings too.
- 2:43Speaker 2: People think it's just the big leagues, But the minor
- 2:45Speaker 2: leagues have their own like wing basically, or they do
- 2:48Speaker 2: their own thing right, and then they chill products off,
- 2:51Speaker 2: and then they do the home then they do the
- 2:54Speaker 2: big league side, which what everyone kind of talks about.
- 2:57Speaker 2: But this is not just for Major League Baseball. It's
- 2:59Speaker 2: kind of for all of baseball. The one thing I
- 3:01Speaker 2: had professional baseball, I should right all pro baseball crats.
- 3:04Speaker 1: I would tell this to kids when I came across
- 3:08Speaker 1: them when I was there. I'm like, I'll talk to you,
- 3:10Speaker 1: I'll do whatever, I kind of help you. But you're
- 3:12Speaker 1: talking to the wrong people. I'm like, you're in the
- 3:14Speaker 1: wrong area. You're talking to the broadcasters. Right when I
- 3:17Speaker 1: was at MLB at the time, I'm like, you're talking
- 3:19Speaker 1: to broadcasters. I'm like, you're trying to work in a
- 3:21Speaker 1: front office. We got almost nothing for you here. I'm like,
- 3:24Speaker 1: minor league sections over there, go work for a team,
- 3:27Speaker 1: dominate over there, you'll be in an affiliated you know,
- 3:29Speaker 1: pro program, and then you can work your way up.
- 3:32Speaker 1: I'm like, if you want to work in TV, talk
- 3:33Speaker 1: to us. If you don't, don't talk to us, don't
- 3:36Speaker 1: waste your time.
- 3:38Speaker 3: I can't imagine how many people are. I went to
- 3:40Speaker 3: the end of the winter meetings one time when it
- 3:42Speaker 3: was in Nashville. I flew in. I helped a guy
- 3:45Speaker 3: pedal one of his products to the trainers because it
- 3:48Speaker 3: was a new like medical product thing, and then I
- 3:52Speaker 3: flew back out and all the people were leaving that
- 3:55Speaker 3: day because the trainers come at the end and then
- 3:57Speaker 3: they have their own little bats reunion stuff and everything,
- 4:02Speaker 3: and there were so many people. I forget Grand old Opry.
- 4:06Speaker 3: I think it is where I flew into where they
- 4:08Speaker 3: had it. It was so many people. I can't imagine.
- 4:10Speaker 3: When it's like everybody crazy.
- 4:15Speaker 1: It's crazy. And yeah, it does get very busy around
- 4:18Speaker 1: the lobby. Anyway, we'll talk more about it as it
- 4:20Speaker 1: gets closer, but by the time AJ's back, it will
- 4:22Speaker 1: be a week away from that time. Period.
- 4:26Speaker 2: And also there's there's it's a crazy time here in
- 4:28Speaker 2: Orlando because there's two celebrity golf tournaments and the Winter
- 4:33Speaker 2: Meetings at the same time, and it's a pretty part
- 4:35Speaker 2: and they're all pretty close to each other.
- 4:36Speaker 1: Yes, pretty popular time for people to come down to
- 4:39Speaker 1: Orlando in general.
- 4:40Speaker 2: Well not really because of our school.
- 4:43Speaker 1: Well for kids right not at the parks, but it's warm.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Sometimes people adult wise will come down.
- 4:49Speaker 2: Yeah, because the parks. That's like the least between Thanksgiving
- 4:53Speaker 2: and Christmas. That like three week time is kind of
- 4:55Speaker 2: a weird time because everyone's either getting back from Thanksgiving
- 4:59Speaker 2: and the of those three weeks until Christmas hits, or
- 5:02Speaker 2: they're waiting for Christmas to come down. Because now, if
- 5:05Speaker 2: you go to Disney in those parks, Sea World and
- 5:07Speaker 2: Universal and all that between about a week before Christmas
- 5:10Speaker 2: till New Year's good, look, you better better hire yourself
- 5:13Speaker 2: a guide.
- 5:14Speaker 1: Wait till the hot time right after Thanksgiving is when
- 5:16Speaker 1: I should consider going.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Yes, usually because that's when quiet attendance is down. Okay,
- 5:21Speaker 2: take I mean you still you know, if you're going
- 5:23Speaker 2: to Disney, you're still looking at I think one hundred
- 5:25Speaker 2: and eighty dollars a ticket, I just for one day,
- 5:29Speaker 2: but I.
- 5:29Speaker 1: Just don't want the line situation. So I'm just whenever
- 5:32Speaker 1: you can go where there are less children. And I'm
- 5:35Speaker 1: not talking about Disney, more universal for me.
- 5:37Speaker 2: I haven't been so I haven't been to the Epic.
- 5:38Speaker 2: I gotta get to Epic.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Yeah. Anyway, there was this trade that was super interesting
- 5:43Speaker 1: last night. Let's charge them out, charge them out. I
- 5:50Speaker 1: see Taylor Ward moved over from the Angels to the Orioles. Okay,
- 5:55Speaker 1: Orioles looking for more power in the outfields. They get
- 5:58Speaker 1: a guy who will be there for a rental one season.
- 6:03Speaker 1: And then I see who goes back on the other end,
- 6:05Speaker 1: Grayson Rodriguez going back to the Angels. So this is
- 6:09Speaker 1: a big leaguer for big league or deal. I was
- 6:12Speaker 1: shocked that they essentially gave up on Grayson Rodriguez, who
- 6:17Speaker 1: has top end stuff when he's healthy. You didn't pitch
- 6:19Speaker 1: this past season. What do you think of this deal?
- 6:22Speaker 2: I don't understand it from the Orioles side of it,
- 6:26Speaker 2: I don't you're getting a one. You're giving up a
- 6:28Speaker 2: guy who has four years of control. And Grayson, now
- 6:30Speaker 2: he's been hurt, he missed all the year but when
- 6:32Speaker 2: he's healthy, he could be a two to three starter
- 6:34Speaker 2: for you. And what did the Orioles not have last
- 6:36Speaker 2: year starting pitching? So why would you give up on
- 6:41Speaker 2: a guy who you developed? You got it all the
- 6:42Speaker 2: way through. And yes, I know he's hurt, but they
- 6:45Speaker 2: know the medicals better than anybody. They should know that
- 6:47Speaker 2: if he's healthy or not. So they trade him for
- 6:50Speaker 2: Taylor Ward in an already crowded outfield they have, I mean,
- 6:55Speaker 2: because they don't stuff forget, they have O'Neill, right, and
- 6:58Speaker 2: then Kobe Mayo wherever he figures out to play. You
- 7:01Speaker 2: got her Stead, You got a lot of guys Mountcastle,
- 7:04Speaker 2: whatever they're gonna do with him, I mean, there's a
- 7:06Speaker 2: lot of guys Westburg, wherever he ends up. I mean,
- 7:08Speaker 2: there's a lot of guys for a lot of spots,
- 7:11Speaker 2: and Tyler and O'Neill's got to be one of your
- 7:13Speaker 2: I mean, sorry, Taylor Ward's got to be one of
- 7:15Speaker 2: your guys that plays all the time. Then you probably
- 7:17Speaker 2: lose DH to Basayo our first base when Adley and
- 7:21Speaker 2: him are gonna go back and forth catching DH first basey.
- 7:24Speaker 2: So he just got crowded really fast. But the Orioles
- 7:27Speaker 2: need pitching, Like I'd be like, this guy's on a
- 7:29Speaker 2: minimum contract and the things the upside is too good.
- 7:32Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's not costing you much right now. Kratz. Sure,
- 7:35Speaker 1: Taylor Ward nice player. I would say, top five streakiest
- 7:38Speaker 1: players in the big league. So when he's hot, he's
- 7:40Speaker 1: sizzling hot. To me, it's almost like Justin Upton status,
- 7:44Speaker 1: like a diet version of that back when he played.
- 7:47Speaker 1: He'd get all his numbers in like a month or
- 7:48Speaker 1: two's time. Because Taylor Ward can blow up in April
- 7:51Speaker 1: and then fall apart in May and June, so there
- 7:54Speaker 1: will be some ups and down set that's part of
- 7:56Speaker 1: his game. That's fine. I just am looking at Baltimore like,
- 7:59Speaker 1: can we get rid of a a ball prospect for
- 8:02Speaker 1: a move like this? I think you need ten twelve
- 8:06Speaker 1: pitchers as part of your forty man that you feel
- 8:08Speaker 1: comfortable starting games for you. And Grayson Rodriguez has the
- 8:12Speaker 1: one two three upside potential. They must have looked at
- 8:15Speaker 1: the medicals and the Baltimore Orioles team. Doctors have been
- 8:19Speaker 1: known to flunk free agents and said, ah, we should
- 8:22Speaker 1: quit on him. Here's the problem. Kratz they're often wrong.
- 8:26Speaker 3: Yeah, but here's the other problem. You can you can
- 8:29Speaker 3: say I'm a little scared about free agents. I'm a
- 8:32Speaker 3: little scared about you know, a thirty year old guy
- 8:35Speaker 3: signing him to a four year, five year contract. They
- 8:38Speaker 3: just flunked Jeff Hoffman. This is not that. This is
- 8:42Speaker 3: a guy who, yeah, he hasn't pitched in a year,
- 8:46Speaker 3: I mean since August of twenty three, No, August of
- 8:50Speaker 3: twenty four, Like you missed a over a year of time.
- 8:52Speaker 3: I get that. But this isn't a free agent. This
- 8:55Speaker 3: is a young pitcher who, let's say even has another
- 8:59Speaker 3: year of injuries. You would never want that, and you're
- 9:02Speaker 3: like you would you wouldn't think a guy would continually
- 9:05Speaker 3: get hurt, but it happens. He's a one year arbitration
- 9:10Speaker 3: every year for the next four years, and you still
- 9:13Speaker 3: have that. This isn't This isn't like failing a free agent.
- 9:16Speaker 3: So if they use the same idea, I think I
- 9:20Speaker 3: think this is a miss. I think this is a
- 9:22Speaker 3: miss because you can't get this is great for the Angels,
- 9:26Speaker 3: but you can't give up young starting pitching that has potential,
- 9:30Speaker 3: give up some of your minor league.
- 9:33Speaker 2: I get it. I get it.
- 9:34Speaker 3: Rogers did an amazing job. You know, Tyler Wells came
- 9:37Speaker 3: back and was awesome. Bradish was awesome. Like, it's okay
- 9:43Speaker 3: to have extra, It's okay to have six to seven
- 9:46Speaker 3: starters that are gonna be in your in your in
- 9:48Speaker 3: your rotation for the season because they're not all going
- 9:51Speaker 3: to stay healthy.
- 9:54Speaker 1: Holiday shopping season is here and we have you covered
- 10:00Speaker 1: from head to toe.
- 10:02Speaker 3: Let's take to talk about an area that's not quite
- 10:04Speaker 3: close to the toes. Let's get crazy with this holiday season. Yeah,
- 10:08Speaker 3: that's me Undies. I'm spinning around, but the holiday season.
- 10:11Speaker 3: Now you can get me undies with some holiday prints
- 10:14Speaker 3: on them.
- 10:14Speaker 1: That's right, ridiculously soft fabric holiday prints, matching holiday prints

- 10:22Speaker 1: the family photo. And right now you can get up

- 10:49Speaker 1: slash f o U L promo code foul for up
- 10:52Speaker 1: to fifty percent off.
- 10:56Speaker 2: This just doesn't make sense to me.
- 10:57Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you. I mean, it's it's not the fact.
- 11:00Speaker 2: Like, look, if you want to trade Grayson Rodriguez and
- 11:02Speaker 2: you feel like you may maybe he might not pitch again,
- 11:04Speaker 2: he might never stay healthy, but you would think you'd
- 11:07Speaker 2: want to get something controllable back. But Taylor Ward's got
- 11:10Speaker 2: one year and then he's a free agent. This is
- 11:12Speaker 2: Corvin Burns all over again. Right. But again, the Oriols
- 11:16Speaker 2: are supposed to have all these prospects position player wise,
- 11:19Speaker 2: So why are they trading one of their areas of
- 11:22Speaker 2: need a pitcher, especially a starting pitcher, for a guy
- 11:25Speaker 2: that when they're supposed to have all these surefire prospects
- 11:28Speaker 2: that they wouldn't trade for years.
- 11:30Speaker 1: The development process to me, has been strange krats At times,
- 11:33Speaker 1: there's not an opening for some of those players that
- 11:35Speaker 1: have been highly touted, and then they often have them
- 11:37Speaker 1: playing a billion different positions in the minor leagues, which
- 11:40Speaker 1: was part of what Jason Lackepora mentioned the other day
- 11:43Speaker 1: on the Orioles to Do list segment that we did,
- 11:45Speaker 1: and there were mixed reviews on that segment, but I
- 11:48Speaker 1: will say Jason was pretty spot on with just about
- 11:50Speaker 1: everything he said regarding the Orioles this year. Are we
- 11:53Speaker 1: hard on them?
- 11:54Speaker 3: Yes?
- 11:55Speaker 1: Why because they tanked for half a decade and then
- 11:57Speaker 1: didn't get enough out of it. So I think you
- 11:59Speaker 1: should be hard on your ball club if you went
- 12:01Speaker 1: through that kind of pain. One funny comment after the
- 12:05Speaker 1: tweet was posted last night about the trade from a
- 12:08Speaker 1: fan said, anytime you're a team in need of a
- 12:10Speaker 1: controllable young starter, you move one of the few you
- 12:14Speaker 1: have to acquire a sixteenth thoutfielder. That's a little harsh,
- 12:17Speaker 1: but here's thirty. You gotta make that deal.
- 12:20Speaker 2: But here's here's the here's their here's their outfielders. Dylan
- 12:23Speaker 2: Beavers first round pick for him, high prospect, Colton Kowser,
- 12:28Speaker 2: who we've talked about for years, Tyler O'Neill who they
- 12:31Speaker 2: signed to a big deal, Leoti Taveres okay backup, and
- 12:36Speaker 2: then Jeremiah Jackson wherever he is. Yeah, which one of
- 12:39Speaker 2: those guys? The center fielder Colton Cawser, I guess gonna
- 12:42Speaker 2: play center for you?
- 12:42Speaker 1: Marique Bradfield when he comes up at some point.
- 12:45Speaker 2: Okay, so then why do you trade for for Taylor Ward?
- 12:48Speaker 1: Explain to playing the corner you atoon, but to.
- 12:52Speaker 2: With who platoon. You're not trading for Taylor Ward if
- 12:55Speaker 2: he's platooning. I'm sorry.
- 12:57Speaker 1: I think there's a world where a lot of his
- 13:00Speaker 1: AB's are coming against left handed pitching.
- 13:02Speaker 2: No, okay, there's not that. I mean, no offense, there's
- 13:06Speaker 2: not that many. That's fours.
- 13:07Speaker 1: I mean his numbers were not great against righty and.
- 13:09Speaker 2: You're gonna pay thirteen point seven million, which he's projected
- 13:12Speaker 2: in arbitration flor a platoon guy. Then this trade just
- 13:15Speaker 2: got even worse.
- 13:16Speaker 1: Let me explain what Michael Liyas likes to do. He
- 13:19Speaker 1: wants to build more of what you saw from far
- 13:21Speaker 1: Anxiety in the Dodgers world ten years ago. It's platoons,
- 13:26Speaker 1: it's everyone can play just about everywhere network out not well,
- 13:29Speaker 1: I'm just explaining what they're doing. I don't I don't
- 13:31Speaker 1: agree with what they've been doing. Last year. I destroyed
- 13:34Speaker 1: their moves, destroyed them, took a lot of crap for it.
- 13:38Speaker 1: They spent money. This has nothing to do with money
- 13:40Speaker 1: spending right now, let's shove that aside. Should they be
- 13:42Speaker 1: going after premieer guys, did you think that was going
- 13:45Speaker 1: to happen? Yes, but that's not realistic right now? Right
- 13:47Speaker 1: this kind of move, krat tells you they're not in
- 13:49Speaker 1: their running for Kyle Tucker. But with what they are doing,
- 13:52Speaker 1: I disagree. I just disagree. They think they got to
- 13:55Speaker 1: hear right, you did the tank, the rebuild, You got
- 13:58Speaker 1: good talent. Putting that last part together is the most
- 14:03Speaker 1: difficult thing to do in baseball, and it's what makes
- 14:05Speaker 1: someone like Dave Dombrowski so successful and put his titles together, right,
- 14:10Speaker 1: Alex Anthopolis and others who go for it and know
- 14:12Speaker 1: how to put the finishing touches on. I think they're
- 14:14Speaker 1: lacking there.
- 14:16Speaker 3: We're I mean, we can talk about Michael Lias's moves
- 14:19Speaker 3: last year in the outfield this year. We can talk
- 14:21Speaker 3: about that all offseason. Today's the trade. So what are
- 14:25Speaker 3: they getting from Taylor Ward? You cannot platoon if you
- 14:29Speaker 3: are platooning him. What AJ said, thirteen point seven million
- 14:33Speaker 3: is what he's projected to make. An arbitration, like you're
- 14:37Speaker 3: not paying any You're not even paying the most elite
- 14:40Speaker 3: platoon advantage guy that money. I mean, he had five
- 14:44Speaker 3: hundred and seventy nine at bats last year. He was
- 14:46Speaker 3: an everyday player, thirty six homers, one hundred and four stakes.
- 14:51Speaker 3: You are, that's all you're getting because the defense is
- 14:54Speaker 3: not great, the base running is well below average, and
- 15:00Speaker 3: you can't, like you need to get full value from this.
- 15:03Speaker 3: And I don't think this is where there's value for
- 15:05Speaker 3: this team unless they're sitting there going, I know, we
- 15:08Speaker 3: gave Tyler O'Neil forty nine million, forty nine and a
- 15:12Speaker 3: half million dollars. We need to make sure we have
- 15:15Speaker 3: somebody in case he goes down when he's you know,
- 15:18Speaker 3: when he takes his time off. Like I don't understand.
- 15:20Speaker 3: I don't understand this at all. But you cannot play
- 15:23Speaker 3: him at a three point fifty to four hundred that
- 15:26Speaker 3: back clip, because then you lose everything. You lose his
- 15:28Speaker 3: counting stats, his home runs and RBIs is what he's
- 15:31Speaker 3: going to bring to this team.
- 15:34Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's not enough lefties. If you're just gonna
- 15:37Speaker 2: platoona that's that's that's an awful thing. But I just
- 15:40Speaker 2: because I don't normally look at I mean I do
- 15:41Speaker 2: look at rosters and we talk about. But so I
- 15:43Speaker 2: looked at the Orioles depth chart. You know, their roster
- 15:46Speaker 2: basically for their starting guys. Have you guys ever seen
- 15:50Speaker 2: Samuel Basaillo in person? Yester? No, okay, you know what
- 15:55Speaker 2: he's listed as on their on their roster. I know
- 15:58Speaker 2: they don't say outfielder. No, no, no. He's listed as catcher
- 16:01Speaker 2: behind athlete and DH behind Mountcastle. But do you know
- 16:04Speaker 2: I'm talking about his weight? You know what his height
- 16:06Speaker 2: and weight is listed at.
- 16:08Speaker 1: I know he's like six'. Five what what do they, have.
- 16:13Speaker 2: Mane he hasn't seen what eighty in a long. Time i'm.
- 16:18Speaker 2: Sorry that's like them Saying Salve perez is one eighty,
- 16:21Speaker 2: Right LIKE i, MEAN i weigh way more than one, eighty.
- 16:25Speaker 2: Right And i've stood next To basayo and he is
- 16:27Speaker 2: bigger THAN i. Am he is. Fooled he is Salvad.
- 16:31Speaker 3: Operez the one TIME i saw, him the one TIME
- 16:34Speaker 3: i saw, him He's Salvado. Press Now Salvi's salvi's much.
- 16:37Speaker 3: Bigger now he's lifted a lot more, legs and But
- 16:41Speaker 3: salvi's SAL i was gonna, say there's no Way basio's
- 16:45Speaker 3: under two fifty and there's no way he's less than,
- 16:50Speaker 3: me monstrous young.
- 16:52Speaker 1: Man, okay so one more thing in The oils THAN
- 16:56Speaker 1: i want to finish with The. Angels now on The baltimore,
- 16:58Speaker 1: SIDE i, mean the lineup's pretty much. Set they're not
- 17:02Speaker 1: trading most of these. Guys they're young under team, control,
- 17:04Speaker 1: Right jacksonaaldy at, Second Jordan westberg at, Third gunner at.
- 17:08Speaker 1: Short you would Think mayo at. First, outfield we went
- 17:12Speaker 1: over plenty, Already adlee a, catcher And pasio mixing in there.
- 17:16Speaker 1: TOO i, mean the lineup's pretty much.
- 17:18Speaker 2: Set but that's why the Tailor ward doesn't make. Sense,
- 17:22Speaker 2: YEAH i want they had to give up because BECAUSE
- 17:25Speaker 2: i look at it like this, again who's gonna play center?
- 17:27Speaker 2: Field Leotis taveras are they, signed so they're not gonna
- 17:30Speaker 2: go out and get someone. Else can you Run Colton
- 17:32Speaker 2: cowser out? There no for center field every? Day so
- 17:35Speaker 2: then he's got to go to a, corner, right and
- 17:37Speaker 2: then that takes it bats away from somebody else because
- 17:39Speaker 2: you have O'Neill who's signed to a long term, deal
- 17:42Speaker 2: and now you Have Taylor ward who's got to play,
- 17:45Speaker 2: right and then you gotta Put cowser, somewhere and you
- 17:46Speaker 2: gotta Have pasio. Somewhere you gotta Have mountcastle. Somewhere so
- 17:49Speaker 2: there's got to be something else coming down the, pipe
- 17:51Speaker 2: you would. Think so there's got to be a trade
- 17:52Speaker 2: coming somewhere down the down that we haven't heard about.
- 17:55Speaker 2: Yet that's coming That michael ISAs is gonna have to
- 17:58Speaker 2: clear clear up some. Space but you want to talk
- 18:00Speaker 2: about The. Angels this is absolutely. Wonderful if you're The,
- 18:02Speaker 2: angels you get a controllable starting pitcher who has a
- 18:05Speaker 2: huge upside for league minimum for four, years and you
- 18:08Speaker 2: clear thirteen point seven off your books off a Guy
- 18:11Speaker 2: kinnor M kratz said that can he can, hit but
- 18:14Speaker 2: everything else is not. Great he's a good, player but
- 18:17Speaker 2: he's not you, know he's not a great. Player where you're,
- 18:20Speaker 2: like this is a franchise changing.
- 18:21Speaker 1: Guy, no he was gone after this year anything, so but.
- 18:23Speaker 2: You get a guy you can control for four years.
- 18:25Speaker 2: Control this is a great deal for The.
- 18:27Speaker 1: Angels they've been looking for guys like, this.
- 18:29Speaker 2: They've been looking for people to take deals like, this
- 18:31Speaker 2: and The orioles are, like pick.
- 18:32Speaker 1: Us, YEAH i love, It, KRATS i love the. Risk
- 18:36Speaker 1: is there a chance That grayson just can't get his
- 18:39Speaker 1: arm figured out long. Term sure there's a, chance but
- 18:42Speaker 1: how often have we seen it where a guy goes
- 18:44Speaker 1: through some injury issues early in his. Career grayson's twenty,
- 18:47Speaker 1: six and then he takes off the? Stuff is there with?
- 18:50Speaker 1: Upside in my? Mind, right we haven't seen all of
- 18:53Speaker 1: the potential tapped. In let's not Forget i'll use an.
- 18:56Speaker 1: Example Trek skool went through quite a few injuries early
- 18:59Speaker 1: in his. Career tell Me, jones he didn't blossom in five.
- 19:01Speaker 1: Minutes just throwing that out, there not saying they're the same,
- 19:04Speaker 1: picture But i'm saying there's significant upside. Here AND i
- 19:07Speaker 1: thought it was a steal of a deal to take
- 19:08Speaker 1: on a lottery ticket like that THAT i think has
- 19:10Speaker 1: a good chance of becoming something.
- 19:12Speaker 3: SPECIAL i want to know other teams that were, like,
- 19:15Speaker 3: wait why couldn't we have gotten in? There like like
- 19:18Speaker 3: the thing about The phillies going up north if they
- 19:20Speaker 3: want an. Outfielder Nick costiani's, like, hey we'll pay down
- 19:24Speaker 3: everything to thirteen point. Seven you're gonna Have Nick costianis
- 19:26Speaker 3: For Grayson. Rodriguez, LIKE i don't see any team that
- 19:29Speaker 3: says MAN i don't want a controllable starter for four
- 19:34Speaker 3: years with some. Risk every picture has. Risk at two
- 19:38Speaker 3: years of, service two years into your big league, career
- 19:42Speaker 3: everybody has. Risk you have no idea who's gonna stay
- 19:45Speaker 3: healthy and who's not unless there's something catastrophically wrong in.
- 19:48Speaker 3: THERE i have a hard time believing this doesn't work
- 19:52Speaker 3: out really well for The.
- 19:53Speaker 1: Angels i'm with, you and we're gonna talk To Grayson
- 19:57Speaker 1: rodriguez On Friday.
- 20:02Speaker 3: FRIDAY i believe it is possibly if The powers getting.
- 20:08Speaker 1: A live update on when he might join. Us, okay
- 20:12Speaker 1: Maybe friday For Grayson rodriguez to talk about this. Deal
- 20:15Speaker 1: and for, me this is a precursor to An orioles
- 20:18Speaker 1: off season That i'm going to feel a little wishy washy.
- 20:21Speaker 1: About they have to remake their entire, bullpen AND i
- 20:24Speaker 1: don't trust that they're going to get an, ace which
- 20:26Speaker 1: is what they have needed. THERE Aj we're going to

- 21:39Speaker 1: total In, baltimore Like jamin pointing out the one thousand
- 21:42Speaker 1: foot left field wall that's moved. Back it's a little.
- 21:45Speaker 2: Different they've changed it.
- 21:47Speaker 1: Now uh. Huh still not easy though that it's still
- 21:51Speaker 1: pretty far back. There let's see how. Things kasar is
- 21:55Speaker 1: going to be, moved along With, malcastle who might be
- 21:57Speaker 1: non tendered by the way On. Friday maybe thinks That
- 22:01Speaker 1: mayo gets. Moved that's a lot of. MOVES i don't
- 22:03Speaker 1: think all of those guys get. Moved maybe one of.
- 22:05Speaker 1: Them you have some thinking that The oils know more
- 22:08Speaker 1: About grace And i'm, like, yes and no medicals get shared.
- 22:12Speaker 1: Again baltimore is very strict on that. Part, Maybe and,
- 22:15Speaker 1: yes he hasn't had full On Tommy john surgery. YET
- 22:18Speaker 1: i understand that.
- 22:22Speaker 3: Even if he misses next, year even if he misses
- 22:25Speaker 3: this season because he Gets Tommy john, surgery you still have.
- 22:30Speaker 3: Him he's still controllable after.
- 22:32Speaker 1: That And.
- 22:36Speaker 3: Arty, moreno never wants to get four years into a
- 22:40Speaker 3: into a free agent. Pitcher SO. C. J wilson killed
- 22:43Speaker 3: him for that.
- 22:44Speaker 2: One SO i DON'T i don't get.
- 22:47Speaker 1: It, Yeah So i'm mentioning maybe they would Give ward
- 22:51Speaker 1: a qualifying offer that's really looking ahead and take. It, yeah,
- 22:57Speaker 1: yeah take. It you're about to get into. That but
- 23:00Speaker 1: you can't just hand those out like you used. To
- 23:03Speaker 1: players are fighting.
- 23:04Speaker 2: Back it's twenty two. Million it's almost twice of what he's. Making.
- 23:08Speaker 1: Now this is a, perfect perfect topic here shaking it
- 23:14Speaker 1: up the player's, side the agency side, saying, OH i
- 23:17Speaker 1: see you qualifying. OFFER i understand the point of the qualifying,
- 23:21Speaker 1: offer AND i am going to accept. It we saw
- 23:24Speaker 1: four acceptances nine no's pretty obvious nose skuys Like Kyle.
- 23:29Speaker 1: Tucker But Brandon Woodriff Showta, Inmanaga Trent, grisham And glaber
- 23:33Speaker 1: Torres all said yes to a one year contract for
- 23:37Speaker 1: about twenty two million. Dollars so they are locked in and.
- 23:41Speaker 1: Signed they won't have those qualifying offers attached to them
- 23:45Speaker 1: after this. Season and in the past there have been
- 23:48Speaker 1: one hundred and forty four qualifying offers extended depending free,
- 23:52Speaker 1: agents only fourteen. Acceptances so this was a. Lot AND
- 23:56Speaker 1: i want to start the conversation by saying That i've
- 23:59Speaker 1: spoken a multiple agent and they think it absolutely destroys
- 24:03Speaker 1: mid level free agents like this in free. Agency so
- 24:06Speaker 1: that is why you're getting more of these yes is,
- 24:09Speaker 1: quote bite the bullet for twenty two million. DOLLARS i
- 24:11Speaker 1: think most people will take, that and then you can
- 24:13Speaker 1: have a proven year and then not have that attached
- 24:16Speaker 1: to you because it really burns free. Agents look At
- 24:18Speaker 1: Nick pavetta last.
- 24:19Speaker 2: Year, Yeah, Martinez Nick martinez one.
- 24:22Speaker 1: Year, well and he Took he took it because he was.
- 24:24Speaker 2: Smart musten this is WHAT i. Said we talked about.
- 24:27Speaker 2: It at one point we were, LIKE i don't know
- 24:29Speaker 2: if anybody's going to take. This and then as the
- 24:31Speaker 2: more we talked about, it all these names were kind
- 24:32Speaker 2: of names Yesterday Cody Cody stavenhagen's Like Labor torres might take.
- 24:36Speaker 2: It we were, like wait what because you would think
- 24:38Speaker 2: he'd be able to get a two or three or
- 24:39Speaker 2: four year deal left because he had a good. Year
- 24:41Speaker 2: and Then shoto was one because he gets one year
- 24:43Speaker 2: twenty two, million, right and then we're, like Wholl Trent,
- 24:46Speaker 2: grisham you know he's had one good year because the
- 24:48Speaker 2: two or three years before that weren't very. Good so
- 24:51Speaker 2: the all four of these guys make sense taking these qualifying.
- 24:55Speaker 2: Offers it's just a lot to see them all. Take
- 24:57Speaker 2: and Then Big wu, obviously because you know he's coming
- 25:00Speaker 2: off injury and they're, like he's, like, WAIT i can
- 25:01Speaker 2: go back To milwaukee WHERE i get twenty two. Million uh,
- 25:05Speaker 2: yeah sign me.
- 25:06Speaker 1: Up, yeah because that can be first of, all and.
- 25:08Speaker 2: Then you can use this to bounce and then you
- 25:09Speaker 2: can't get. One you can't get.
- 25:11Speaker 1: One So woodriff had a nice fuller season looking like
- 25:14Speaker 1: he did for a flash of twenty twenty. Five, yeah
- 25:17Speaker 1: he's gonna get paid and he's not going to have
- 25:19Speaker 1: to deal with that. Attachment it is a real problem
- 25:21Speaker 1: in free. Agency it is used heavily against the. Players
- 25:24Speaker 1: draft picks are highly. Coveted it's a. Pain same For Labor.
- 25:27Speaker 1: Torres Labor torres is not even twenty nine, yet turning
- 25:30Speaker 1: twenty nine next. Month so if he goes out and
- 25:33Speaker 1: has another solid year like he just, did then he
- 25:36Speaker 1: can get his multi year.
- 25:37Speaker 3: Contract, obviously if this is a lot of, ifs you,
- 25:40Speaker 3: know if the guy it all depends on if the
- 25:42Speaker 3: guy goes out and get has a great, year which
- 25:45Speaker 3: every player plans on. Doing but one THING i think
- 25:49Speaker 3: is kind of funny about all these guys what they
- 25:51Speaker 3: were projected to get in free. Agency they were all
- 25:55Speaker 3: in that forty to fifty million dollar, range and that
- 26:00Speaker 3: that competitive draft, pick that draft pick that's that's locked
- 26:05Speaker 3: to them really demeans their. Value and each of these
- 26:08Speaker 3: guys showed a big. Woo they're thirty, two they'll be
- 26:12Speaker 3: thirty three when the hit free. Agency even if they
- 26:14Speaker 3: get a two year contract after this, season and they
- 26:17Speaker 3: would have gotten a three year this. Offseason but if
- 26:19Speaker 3: they get a two year contract after this, season all
- 26:23Speaker 3: they have to do is make thirty million dollars and
- 26:25Speaker 3: they're already passing what they're projected was for this. Season
- 26:28Speaker 3: SO i Think glab's the one that really surprised me,
- 26:31Speaker 3: here but they were all right in.
- 26:33Speaker 2: That Trent.
- 26:34Speaker 3: Grisham Trent grisham's like multiplying what he the most he's
- 26:38Speaker 3: ever made by almost three times as much as he
- 26:41Speaker 3: ever he's ever made in a. Season so to, me
- 26:44Speaker 3: it's a no brainer if he was only going to
- 26:45Speaker 3: get a four year deal now after this he'll be
- 26:47Speaker 3: thirty after this. Season he can still get a four
- 26:50Speaker 3: year deal and he's already got essentially twenty two million
- 26:54Speaker 3: dollars that he made for this. Season that you can, say,
- 26:57Speaker 3: okay now you don't what would it have been. That
- 27:01Speaker 3: he made way. More so it's always better to go
- 27:03Speaker 3: year to, year and teams love year to, year so
- 27:06Speaker 3: we got to keep pushing this qualifying, up qualifying offer
- 27:09Speaker 3: up more and.
- 27:09Speaker 1: More The Trent grisham one was the biggest shock to
- 27:13Speaker 1: me when it was handed.
- 27:14Speaker 2: Out, YEAH i was surprised they would they gave. IT
- 27:16Speaker 2: i was.
- 27:17Speaker 1: Shocked he doubled his home run. Total it's been a
- 27:20Speaker 1: nice player as more of a fourth outfield, option and
- 27:23Speaker 1: he blew up this past. Season but then the league
- 27:25Speaker 1: started adjusting to his adjustments as the year went, on
- 27:29Speaker 1: and his defense is not like it used to. Be
- 27:31Speaker 1: so nice, player twenty two million dollar player not in my,
- 27:36Speaker 1: mind do The yankees? Care, actually, yes nowadays they do.
- 27:40Speaker 2: Care that might be a that actually if IT'S i
- 27:42Speaker 2: don't know where they said luxury tax, wise but it
- 27:45Speaker 2: could be a twenty two or thirty or forty million dollar,
- 27:48Speaker 2: player right because it's depending on where they land in
- 27:51Speaker 2: a luxury. Tax so, YEAH i think they do. CARE
- 27:54Speaker 2: i think. THEY i don't know that The cubs were
- 27:57Speaker 2: surprised at Him. ANAGA i don't know The brewers were,
- 28:00Speaker 2: tries BUT i think The yankees maybe we're a little
- 28:03Speaker 2: surprised That christiaan picked this. Up, well maybe The tigers
- 28:07Speaker 2: were a little Surprised glaber picked this. Up but the
- 28:09Speaker 2: teams also look at it like this and, say we're
- 28:12Speaker 2: gonna lock the players out one year. Deal they're off
- 28:14Speaker 2: the books and we can start. Over and then if
- 28:15Speaker 2: we have a salary, camp which they all, WANT i
- 28:18Speaker 2: mean the cap team and the owner's team they all.
- 28:20Speaker 2: Want we all know they want a salary. Cap so
- 28:23Speaker 2: they're going to, say, well that's twenty two million off
- 28:25Speaker 2: our books and we can they can walk and try
- 28:27Speaker 2: to find somewhere.
- 28:28Speaker 1: ELSE i actually look at it on the other, end,
- 28:30Speaker 1: right If I'm Tran, Grisham i'm going to get punished
- 28:32Speaker 1: for the qualifying. Offer my defense is not like it
- 28:35Speaker 1: used to. BE i could be looked at as a.
- 28:37Speaker 1: FLUKE i could be looked at as the league adjusting
- 28:40Speaker 1: to you know what he, did, RIGHT i was looking
- 28:43Speaker 1: hands further. Away then league adjusts a lot of breaking
- 28:47Speaker 1: pitches that he wasn't hitting later in the. Year so
- 28:51Speaker 1: that's all going to be used against you when you
- 28:53Speaker 1: don't have a solid track. Record, right he wasn't going
- 28:55Speaker 1: to get twenty two million dollars on an average annual
- 28:59Speaker 1: value on them year contract, like no, Way, Okay so
- 29:02Speaker 1: let's say he signed a three year. Contract if you
- 29:06Speaker 1: really believe that there's going to be significant lockout time,
- 29:09Speaker 1: missed you're already knocking out one of those. Seasons so
- 29:11Speaker 1: now it's really a two year, contract, Right and how
- 29:13Speaker 1: much is your average annual value versus just being, like
- 29:16Speaker 1: damn not a twenty two million dollar. Player But i'll
- 29:18Speaker 1: take that for a. Year see what happens after, that
- 29:21Speaker 1: because this year you're playing the full, season, right we
- 29:24Speaker 1: don't have lockout concerns until the year after. That so,
- 29:27Speaker 1: yeah for, Me, KRATZ i WAS i was shocked that
- 29:29Speaker 1: that was given out by The, yanks also due to
- 29:31Speaker 1: the fact THAT i think they still want to try
- 29:34Speaker 1: and go after A. Bellinger Kyle tucker starts to crowd
- 29:37Speaker 1: up the outfield a little. Bit you've Got Jason. Dominguez
- 29:40Speaker 1: If Spencer, jones you, know breaks out or continues to
- 29:43Speaker 1: break out and is the real deal in the major,
- 29:45Speaker 1: leagues you're going to run out of. Spots John carlo
- 29:48Speaker 1: is still there for YOUR dh, position WHICH i think
- 29:51Speaker 1: clogs things up as good as he. Is. Right If
- 29:54Speaker 1: judge goes through an. Issue it gets complicated for The.
- 29:57Speaker 1: Yankees they dealt with that last.
- 29:58Speaker 3: Year how much of these numbers were where he was
- 30:02Speaker 3: hitting in the lineup in front of THE Mvp Aaron.
- 30:05Speaker 3: Judge how much of this spike was that like good,
- 30:10Speaker 3: pool left handed, hitter able to get, like you know,
- 30:13Speaker 3: what he's always been somebody that controls the strike zone very.
- 30:16Speaker 3: Well now it's, like, hey you control the strike, zone
- 30:19Speaker 3: take your shot because they're gonna give you middle, middle
- 30:22Speaker 3: because they are not going to walk you on purpose
- 30:26Speaker 3: to pitch to. Judge so to, me took advantage of.
- 30:29Speaker 3: That his defensive, metrics defensive front saved outs above average
- 30:34Speaker 3: are all in the. Negatives this year he stole three,
- 30:37Speaker 3: bases WHICH i get. It you're you, know you're hitting
- 30:39Speaker 3: in front of your own, base in front of. Judge,
- 30:41Speaker 3: hey he can hit you in from where you're at first,
- 30:43Speaker 3: base so you stay. Still but LIKE i was surprised
- 30:48Speaker 3: they handed it out to, him less surprised that he accepted.
- 30:52Speaker 1: It officially Official this From Laura, albanize who covers The.
- 30:56Speaker 1: Mets they Cut frankie on top designated for As simon.
- 31:01Speaker 2: Waver and Having Tommy. John, yeah some type of.
- 31:04Speaker 1: Surgery that's bouncing him. Out, YEAH i think IT'S tj
- 31:06Speaker 1: for the rest of for the entire twenty twenty, sixties.
- 31:09Speaker 2: Listen we. LISTENED i don't Know Frankie montoss at. All
- 31:13Speaker 2: praps might know. HIM i don't know, him but we
- 31:15Speaker 2: said when The red signed, him wasn't The red who
- 31:18Speaker 2: signed him last year The. Reds The red signed him
- 31:20Speaker 2: for like fifteen million whatever it, was and he hadn't
- 31:23Speaker 2: pitched in almost two. Years i'm, like that's crazy, money
- 31:26Speaker 2: right for a guy got your pitch to The brewers
- 31:29Speaker 2: and he got traded To. Berwise he did, okay but
- 31:30Speaker 2: he never really did. Great and then The mets sent
- 31:33Speaker 2: him to a two year like thirty six million dollar
- 31:35Speaker 2: deal and then thirty FOUR i, think, well, Whatever, jack
- 31:39Speaker 2: thirty something, million thirty four whatever it. Was but he
- 31:43Speaker 2: got hurt and he and then when he did, pitch
- 31:45Speaker 2: he was, awful and then all of a, sudden he's hurt,
- 31:47Speaker 2: Again LIKE i. Didn't you would Think David sertz would
- 31:49Speaker 2: have looked at this and, said, Wow, AGAIN i don't
- 31:52Speaker 2: Know Frankie. MONTAS i can't judge when people get, hurt
- 31:55Speaker 2: but if you just go off his Performance this should
- 31:57Speaker 2: have been a one year, deal one year, deal one year.
- 31:59Speaker 2: Deal The mets got him for two, years and now
- 32:02Speaker 2: they're paying him for two.
- 32:03Speaker 1: Years that was the most shocking signing last year in
- 32:06Speaker 1: terms of how much money was given out to a
- 32:08Speaker 1: player with that track. Record it's not like he's been
- 32:10Speaker 1: in the league for five. Minutes that was. Insane two,
- 32:13Speaker 1: years thirty four million dollars and he could opt out
- 32:16Speaker 1: after year one if he performed. Well nine appearances thirty eight,
- 32:21Speaker 1: innings six to eighty sixty THREE era. Plus it's not
- 32:26Speaker 1: big League calimber. Production he had some injuries mixed in damaged.
- 32:31Speaker 1: Goods just telling it like it. Is it has nothing
- 32:33Speaker 1: to do with the. PERSONALITY i don't. Care you just
- 32:35Speaker 1: don't buy an asset like that on the free agent.
- 32:37Speaker 1: Market this was the major mistake that The mets. Made
- 32:41Speaker 1: David stearns is what did you say the other? Day
- 32:45Speaker 1: one of you guys said it like playing in.
- 32:48Speaker 2: He's going to the deep. End, yeah he's playing in
- 32:50Speaker 2: the kiddie pool still because he thinks he's still In.
- 32:52Speaker 2: Milwaukee you're in The mets, now you can go in
- 32:55Speaker 2: the deepend and get the big. Boys you can get
- 32:57Speaker 2: the adults now like the things he had to. Do
- 33:00Speaker 2: and this is what we had this conversation yesterday when
- 33:03Speaker 2: we were talking ABOUT i forget what team we, WERE
- 33:06Speaker 2: i don't know if maybe The tigers or. Somebody and
- 33:07Speaker 2: we were, like, oh they're trying to win on the.
- 33:09Speaker 2: Margins like, no like everybody tries to get into the
- 33:13Speaker 2: margins and win on the. Margins how about we just
- 33:15Speaker 2: try to win with the best, Players like why are
- 33:17Speaker 2: we always EVERY gm tries to out smart and be, like,
- 33:20Speaker 2: oh look how SMART i am BECAUSE i got this
- 33:22Speaker 2: guy AND i saved this money instead of being, like
- 33:24Speaker 2: you know, What i'm gonna go get the best players
- 33:26Speaker 2: and put them on my team because we can have
- 33:27Speaker 2: the best. Team, yeah that's what he.
- 33:29Speaker 1: Said that's what he.
- 33:30Speaker 2: Said that's what he. Said that's what he.
- 33:34Speaker 1: Said All, right there's a lot going on with The Pittsburgh,
- 33:39Speaker 1: pirates perfect timing for A pirates dedicated, show, which by the,
- 33:42Speaker 1: way is Called Bucco. Territory it's brand, new it's, great
- 33:45Speaker 1: it's part of THE Ft. Network but, anyway, yeah you
- 33:47Speaker 1: have two things at play, here and we're going to
- 33:49Speaker 1: cover both of. Them one is an offer reported To
- 33:53Speaker 1: Josh naylor that did not get the job, done but
- 33:56Speaker 1: looked substantial if you believe. It the other portion is
- 34:00Speaker 1: is that little article that popped up there with an
- 34:03Speaker 1: anonymous teammate Of Paul skiing saying how much he can't
- 34:06Speaker 1: wait to be A. Yankee so let's start there because
- 34:09Speaker 1: they're both tied to each other since some of the
- 34:11Speaker 1: other reports that the pirates are trying to really build
- 34:14Speaker 1: Around paul skins like they're, changed, right like being in
- 34:18Speaker 1: that relationship where they keep Saying i've, changed they claim
- 34:20Speaker 1: to be. Changed so first, off let's get. Schemes talking
- 34:23Speaker 1: To Dan patrick on his.
- 34:25Speaker 4: Ship, YEAH i MEAN i was frustrated for a couple
- 34:29Speaker 4: hours and then and then you, know kind of got
- 34:33Speaker 4: over it and talked to the media later that. Night you,
- 34:37Speaker 4: know it is what it. Is there's stuff that's going
- 34:39Speaker 4: to come, out you, know good and. Bad it's you,
- 34:43Speaker 4: know obviously it's it's not. TRUE i think the hardest
- 34:47Speaker 4: part of leading Air force for me, was you, know
- 34:49Speaker 4: we had just won a conference, championship the first one
- 34:53Speaker 4: in the school's, history and you know didn't and we've
- 34:59Speaker 4: been out that and it felt like there was, unfinished you,
- 35:04Speaker 4: know work that needed to be. Done so that's how
- 35:07Speaker 4: it feels right. Now we're you, KNOW i won the
- 35:11Speaker 4: we won the national championship or the conference championship at Air.
- 35:14Speaker 4: Force that's that's what is on the horizon for.
- 35:18Speaker 1: Us we just have to do.
- 35:19Speaker 4: It and leaving before, that would you, know leave a
- 35:22Speaker 4: bad taste in my mouth because there wasn't you, know
- 35:24Speaker 4: there was work to be done that we didn't.
- 35:26Speaker 1: Do what do you think of the.
- 35:30Speaker 2: Answer there's one major difference Air force versus The. Pirates
- 35:33Speaker 2: The pirates are playing in the major. Leagues Air forces
- 35:36Speaker 2: is a great school and a GREAT i love THE
- 35:38Speaker 2: i love the, military AND i love all, that but
- 35:40Speaker 2: they're not playing in the major. Leagues the best players
- 35:42Speaker 2: are the. Best they're in the. Conference and, listen congratulations
- 35:44Speaker 2: Of paul's, Schemes but he went TO lsu to get
- 35:47Speaker 2: paid and to win a national, championship which he did
- 35:50Speaker 2: right With Dylan cruz and that whole. Crew, now guess
- 35:52Speaker 2: what you're with The. Pirates they're not winning anytime. Soon
- 35:55Speaker 2: don't say they're. Trying oh we tried On, joshie Because
- 35:58Speaker 2: Ben verlander reported it, right, like, Oh Ben verlonard who
- 36:01Speaker 2: works for The Major Leagues baseball tried to report. It it, like,
- 36:05Speaker 2: okay so, cool but they were like fifteen million dollars
- 36:08Speaker 2: off from Nail or guess. What he was in a
- 36:10Speaker 2: place he liked their better. Team they have a chance to.
- 36:12Speaker 2: Compete he's not going To. Pittsburgh you have to, overpay thank.
- 36:16Speaker 2: You you have to overpay to get people to come
- 36:17Speaker 2: To pittsburgh because they don't believe. It they think you're
- 36:19Speaker 2: full of. Crap and so then guess. What eventually he's
- 36:23Speaker 2: gonna happen to him and he can, Say i'm gona
- 36:25Speaker 2: feel like something's unfinished In. Pittsburgh that's, cool finding, Dandy
- 36:29Speaker 2: but at the end of the, day they're gonna trade
- 36:30Speaker 2: you because they can get four or five pieces back
- 36:33Speaker 2: and it's not gonna matter you SAY i want to.
- 36:34Speaker 2: STAY i want to stay unless you're Buyron bucks and
- 36:36Speaker 2: have a full note trade sign an. Extension you ain't, Staying.
- 36:40Speaker 2: Paul And i'm Sorry pirates fans BECAUSE i think you
- 36:43Speaker 2: guys deserve, Better but you ain't staying because they're gonna
- 36:45Speaker 2: ship you.
- 36:45Speaker 1: Out are we about to play a game this offseason
- 36:48Speaker 1: where The pirates make the s offers to players that
- 36:52Speaker 1: falls show with turk.
- 36:53Speaker 2: School Ball ark school. Ball they're talking about Trading Terrek
- 36:57Speaker 2: Scooball Paul, Skans terrek school the two of the best,
- 37:02Speaker 2: three two of the if not the two best pitchers
- 37:05Speaker 2: in the world right now in baseball right both one
- 37:09Speaker 2: Saw young's both talking about being. Traded why why EVERYTHING
- 37:17Speaker 2: i see in baseball is doing? Great attendance is of,
- 37:19Speaker 2: viewerships of revenues. Up but every team is losing. Money
- 37:24Speaker 2: explain that to, Me, scott BECAUSE i can't figure it.
- 37:26Speaker 1: Out, well The pirates are making. Money that's the.
- 37:27Speaker 2: Fact every team is making. Money if they weren't Making
- 37:30Speaker 2: these are all. Businessmen every owner is a, businessman business, person, women,
- 37:34Speaker 2: man whatever they. Are whoever owns the, teams you're business, people.
- 37:37Speaker 2: Okay these business people know how to make. Money if
- 37:41Speaker 2: you're not making, money you sell the team because you know.
- 37:44Speaker 2: What you can make your money that, way and you
- 37:45Speaker 2: say it's someone else's. Problem, otherwise if You're Bob, nutting
- 37:49Speaker 2: if you're the With Dick momford And, colorado if you're
- 37:53Speaker 2: not making, money you sell the team and you take
- 37:55Speaker 2: your franchise value that you made all this money on
- 37:58Speaker 2: and you take, it you cash it, in you put
- 38:00Speaker 2: that into something. Else to try to make. Money, yeah
- 38:02Speaker 2: so don't give me the we're losing money and we
- 38:04Speaker 2: can't afford these players because you.
- 38:05Speaker 1: Can't times are. Hard but In skeens, CASE i think
- 38:08Speaker 1: we have a different topic, Here. Kratz it's not about signing.
- 38:12Speaker 1: Schemes it's About skiens actually wanting to stay. There right,
- 38:15Speaker 1: now if You're Paul, skins there aren't many numbers that
- 38:18Speaker 1: you're saying yes to if you want to look over
- 38:20Speaker 1: TO i, MEAN i know he's a different Position Mike
- 38:22Speaker 1: trout and, Say, OKAY i might be one of the
- 38:24Speaker 1: best pitchers of this, generation, right but AM i about
- 38:27Speaker 1: to sign with a team That i'll never really get
- 38:29Speaker 1: much success.
- 38:30Speaker 3: With, no you're. Not and they're not going to make
- 38:34Speaker 3: enough of an. Offer they're not going to make enough
- 38:36Speaker 3: of an offer that would give. Them they're just there's to,
- 38:40Speaker 3: me there's no number that's going to come. Close and
- 38:43Speaker 3: we might even hear we might even hear a. Number
- 38:45Speaker 3: oh you, know The pirates Offered Paul skeens this or
- 38:49Speaker 3: that like to, me until The pirates make an offer
- 38:52Speaker 3: that is even equal to what somebody would get somewhere,
- 38:55Speaker 3: else it's not even a blip on my, radar like
- 38:59Speaker 3: The rays started doing that for. Years they were making
- 39:01Speaker 3: offers that were equal to what guys we're going to
- 39:04Speaker 3: get at other. Places AND i wouldn't have believed it
- 39:06Speaker 3: HAD i not heard it from the people that signed
- 39:08Speaker 3: at other, places teammates of, mine and so, like, hey
- 39:11Speaker 3: you know, what they were definitely. Trying it didn't, happen you,
- 39:15Speaker 3: know but to be fifteen million under and then to
- 39:18Speaker 3: have a have a superstar In Paul, skens you, know
- 39:23Speaker 3: not being able to say definitively that he can he
- 39:28Speaker 3: can stay In pittsburgh for the rest of his career
- 39:31Speaker 3: is a disservice to The pittsburgh fans and to his.
- 39:34Speaker 1: Career so, Yeah Jeff passing in His notes column reporting that,
- 39:39Speaker 1: yeah they were willing to Sign naylor for more than
- 39:41Speaker 1: twice the franchise previous record free agent, deal which currently

- 41:18Speaker 1: spend money on anybody? Else? Ever, true it's just such
- 41:22Speaker 1: a joke to think that he would actually consider that
- 41:26Speaker 1: franchise right now with the way that they've treated their
- 41:28Speaker 1: team and free. Agency tell Me i'm, Wrong please tell
- 41:32Speaker 1: Me i'm wrong That Kyle schwarver is going to get

- 42:19Speaker 3: HERE i hope we get to play this all back
- 42:21Speaker 3: And pirate fans can laugh at us and look at us.
- 42:24Speaker 2: Now because they do have a rotation with some. Offense
- 42:28Speaker 2: could be a great.
- 42:29Speaker 1: Team DO i believe.
- 42:30Speaker 2: THAT i want The pirates to be good BECAUSE i
- 42:32Speaker 2: want all the teams to, try AND i want fans
- 42:34Speaker 2: to be rewarded for their. Loyalty and there are some
- 42:36Speaker 2: Awesome pittsburgh. Fans, yeah it's one of the best. Ballparks
- 42:39Speaker 2: it's one of the coolest stadiums you could ever go,
- 42:41Speaker 2: to and there are some die Hard it's the same As, oakland,
- 42:45Speaker 2: Right like for a Year's oakland people were, like, oh
- 42:46Speaker 2: there's no. Fans, well there was like about ten to
- 42:48Speaker 2: twelve Thousand oakland fans that were at every game and
- 42:51Speaker 2: they were. UNBELIEVABLE i mean they were loud as hell
- 42:54Speaker 2: and there was like none of them. THERE i mean
- 42:55Speaker 2: there was like ten thousand people there and it was
- 42:58Speaker 2: loud as. Well the same In. Pittsburgh there's like your
- 43:00Speaker 2: base and they should be rewarded for.
- 43:02Speaker 1: It look at The.
- 43:03Speaker 2: Steelers The steelers are packed all the, time right because
- 43:06Speaker 2: they try and win every.
- 43:07Speaker 1: Year it's not about That pittsburgh has a great fan.
- 43:10Speaker 1: Base they have a great, ballpark.
- 43:11Speaker 2: But it's about the fact THAT i feel sorry for
- 43:13Speaker 2: the fact that they haven't had a winning team in
- 43:15Speaker 2: a long. Time.
- 43:15Speaker 1: Yeah and you, know even in this report, too from
- 43:18Speaker 1: passing like they might Let Connor griffin win a. Spot
- 43:20Speaker 1: he's one of the top prospects in the, sport top
- 43:23Speaker 1: From Baseball america right. Now he's nineteen years. Old is
- 43:26Speaker 1: he the savior? YET i mean it's. Early it's awesome
- 43:29Speaker 1: that they'll let him. Compete i'm all about, it, Right
- 43:31Speaker 1: and they do have some exciting young, players AND i
- 43:33Speaker 1: do think they'll sign, someone but they'll probably end up
- 43:36Speaker 1: signing someone more in like the thirty something million forty fifty,
- 43:39Speaker 1: right like something much more mid, range and, say, hey
- 43:42Speaker 1: we tried for the.
- 43:42Speaker 2: They're gonna Sign they're gonna sign a couple of mid,
- 43:44Speaker 2: yes mid free, agents, huh and, say, hey, look, guys
- 43:47Speaker 2: we're really, trying and we tried to play in the
- 43:49Speaker 2: big boy, pool but it didn't work. Out it's we
- 43:52Speaker 2: hear this from numerous teams at this.
- 43:54Speaker 1: POINT i just don't think we can forget the track
- 43:57Speaker 1: record for a long period of. Time. Now they've had
- 44:00Speaker 1: other teams LIKE i don't know the one coming into this,
- 44:02Speaker 1: season that's some pretty good looking, pitchers and they completely
- 44:05Speaker 1: neglected the free agent market to help the. Offense the
- 44:07Speaker 1: offense was. TERRIBLE i got something for. You did you
- 44:10Speaker 1: see that The rays Cut Christopher? MORRELL i Mean Sabermetric
- 44:14Speaker 1: darling is he? Though no fun? Guy fun, Fun he's
- 44:20Speaker 1: fun when he's.
- 44:21Speaker 2: Fun when he was hitting, dingers.
- 44:23Speaker 1: He's got too many holes in that, swing and that.
- 44:25Speaker 2: Was what do you think The cubs got rid of?
- 44:26Speaker 1: Him they made a nice move, there, Right.
- 44:31Speaker 2: Christmer morrell looks like a fun, player but he strikes
- 44:33Speaker 2: out so. Much cratch, like he strikes out so. Much
- 44:36Speaker 2: he doesn't really have a. POSITION i guess they're left
- 44:39Speaker 2: field is kind of where he's. Settled but, yeah he'll
- 44:42Speaker 2: hit you some, dingers but are the two hundred strikeouts
- 44:45Speaker 2: he puts? Up he give him five hundred and six
- 44:46Speaker 2: hundred bats worth twenty five homers every year and bad.
- 44:49Speaker 1: Defense he hits the ball hard and then certain people
- 44:53Speaker 1: drool and they need to clean their spit. Up it's too.
- 44:57Speaker 1: Much it's enough That i'm just saying that pro file
- 45:00Speaker 1: of player right gets way too much. Hype it's, true
- 45:05Speaker 1: you know what krats we talked. About it's not an
- 45:07Speaker 1: old school new school. Thing you just you can't have
- 45:09Speaker 1: that profile and holes in your swing like? That is
- 45:12Speaker 1: it unfair for me to say because some guys fix those? Holes?
- 45:17Speaker 3: Uh name one who fixed? Those who fixes those holes
- 45:21Speaker 3: when they're that?
- 45:22Speaker 2: Glaring?
- 45:22Speaker 3: Like is he gonna drop twenty five punch? Outs like to,
- 45:25Speaker 3: ME i would hope For Christopher morel he can look
- 45:28Speaker 3: at himself and, Go, Okay i've in, Dfate i've been
- 45:30Speaker 3: traded away from The cubs who are trying to. Win
- 45:33Speaker 3: what DO i need to? Change because he's uber, athletic
- 45:37Speaker 3: stupid bat? Speed, like what DO i need to?
- 45:40Speaker 2: Change we'll? SEE i, mean it's totally up to.
- 45:44Speaker 1: Him but the problem, IS i, mean exit velocity and
- 45:48Speaker 1: bat speed numbers that lead to expected numbers that are.
- 45:52Speaker 2: Just those aren't real though real lit those aren't. REAL
- 45:55Speaker 2: i get so annoyed with. That those aren't, real.
- 45:58Speaker 1: But sometimes they're helpful to, Show, hey this player actually
- 46:00Speaker 1: has gone through an unlucky first couple months of the
- 46:04Speaker 1: season or whatever it, Is, right.
- 46:05Speaker 2: It's been a lucky first couple of years for.
- 46:08Speaker 1: Him i'm saying this doesn't apply for this type of.
- 46:11Speaker 1: Player oh that's my point is there's a TIME i always.
- 46:15Speaker 2: Like, LISTEN i understand where like guys are hitting the
- 46:17Speaker 2: ball hard and they're not getting, Hits like, yeah okay
- 46:18Speaker 2: for a couple of, weeks but this has been a while,
- 46:21Speaker 2: Now like everyone's, like this guy's got all the talent
- 46:23Speaker 2: in the. World but it goes back to krats what
- 46:25Speaker 2: we've talked about on here many. Times not everybody could
- 46:27Speaker 2: be a forty five home run. Guy not everybody's a
- 46:30Speaker 2: thirty to forty home run. Guy hit your fifteen to
- 46:33Speaker 2: twenty and get on base and steal if you're super
- 46:36Speaker 2: out like they're just because we've gotten to a point in,
- 46:39Speaker 2: baseball which is the way it. Is it's what guys
- 46:41Speaker 2: get paid. For it's hitting, homers all.
- 46:43Speaker 1: Right we have two articles fresh up on The Roer

- 46:52Speaker 1: we like best in. Baseball we'll get to that later this,
- 46:55Speaker 1: week but this one is which teams are most successful
- 46:57Speaker 1: with limited payrolls and no. Surprise this is looking over
- 47:02Speaker 1: a period of time where a team like The rays pop.
- 47:05Speaker 1: Up most of the teams that pop up here with
- 47:07Speaker 1: the average dollars spent per win are basically the bottom
- 47:12Speaker 1: of the. Barrel it was a fun exercise but also
- 47:15Speaker 1: a terrible exercise because most of these teams that had no, success, well.
- 47:20Speaker 2: The guardians And. Raise everyone wants to be The. Raise
- 47:22Speaker 2: everyone wants to be The. Raise race haven't. Won they
- 47:24Speaker 2: haven't won A World series.
- 47:25Speaker 1: Yet WHEN i say, SUCCESS i mean the point is
- 47:28Speaker 1: A World series. Title most fan, Bases, yeah.
- 47:31Speaker 2: It's cool that you make the. Playoffs But i'll tell you,
- 47:33Speaker 2: what if you talk to a lot of people around the,
- 47:35Speaker 2: league they will say that the teams are just happy
- 47:39Speaker 2: they make the. Playoffs, oh we got, In hey it
- 47:41Speaker 2: was we got. In we got, In not, hey we
- 47:44Speaker 2: didn't we won the World like The dodgers won The
- 47:45Speaker 2: World series last. Year that was a hell of a.
- 47:47Speaker 2: Year The yankees are the one team and they don't
- 47:49Speaker 2: win The World. Series that it's not a successful year
- 47:51Speaker 2: other than that team's, like oh we got. In, look
- 47:53Speaker 2: anything can happen once you get. In anything can happen
- 47:56Speaker 2: once you get.
- 47:56Speaker 1: In many teams think that there's too much chance, risk
- 48:02Speaker 1: et cetera in the. PLAYOFFS i can't disagree. MORE i
- 48:05Speaker 1: feel like we look at certain teams And i'm, like,
- 48:06Speaker 1: yeah that looks like a playoff, team but they're not
- 48:08Speaker 1: going to do much. THERE i feel like we say
- 48:10Speaker 1: that every year of this show's. Existence, Right, oh they
- 48:14Speaker 1: really got to go for that big name. Starter sure
- 48:17Speaker 1: is it? Risky, yes going to be A corbyn burn
- 48:19Speaker 1: signing for The diamondbacks and then all of a sudden
- 48:21Speaker 1: he's hurt and you're not going to have him until
- 48:23Speaker 1: part of this coming. Season, Sure but at the same,
- 48:26Speaker 1: time could he Be Google, yamamoto et cetera and win
- 48:31Speaker 1: you A World?
- 48:31Speaker 3: Series at the end of this, Here Stu sternberg stole
- 48:36Speaker 3: sold the, race, right? Yep so all those all those
- 48:41Speaker 3: dollars per wins at the end of his time owning the, race,
- 48:45Speaker 3: here does he wish he had A World series? Ring
- 48:48Speaker 3: if he can't say, Yes if you're an owner right
- 48:50Speaker 3: now and you just started owning the team and you
- 48:52Speaker 3: can't say yes to. That just sell just sell it
- 48:56Speaker 3: now because there are people that have the money that
- 48:59Speaker 3: also won the. Ring, like, yeah, great he saved a
- 49:02Speaker 3: lot of, money made a ton of money when he
- 49:04Speaker 3: sold the. Team had he invested some of that money
- 49:08Speaker 3: that he made and won a, SERIES i.
- 49:11Speaker 2: Bet he still would have made the same amount of.
- 49:12Speaker 3: Money that's.
- 49:15Speaker 2: True he probably would have made more.
- 49:16Speaker 1: If you would have made. More, yeah if you have
- 49:18Speaker 1: A World series, team you get a lot of bang
- 49:20Speaker 1: for the buck after the, facts, RIGHT i mean you
- 49:22Speaker 1: went over a very large generation of. Fans when you're
- 49:26Speaker 1: able to pull something like that, OFF i always get, told,
- 49:28Speaker 1: well you, can't you, know go too far in debt
- 49:31Speaker 1: with a current team based on what they're going to
- 49:33Speaker 1: sell for in the. FUTURE i, mean you are able
- 49:36Speaker 1: to borrow. Money that's part of THE mlb, program LIKE i. Gave,
- 49:38Speaker 1: hey The patres have not won A World. SERIES i
- 49:41Speaker 1: think they've tried damn hard to do it. Right it's
- 49:44Speaker 1: not always going to work. Out but don't you think
- 49:46Speaker 1: a team like that has kind of done everything that
- 49:48Speaker 1: they could do during the last half? Decade? Awesome, yeah
- 49:52Speaker 1: and how is it out there they're.
- 49:53Speaker 2: Doing fun to sell the. Team they're going to make
- 49:55Speaker 2: a lot of.
- 49:55Speaker 1: Money they want to sell the team because they're not
- 49:57Speaker 1: as into, baseball and that. Happens this is the BEST

- 50:12Speaker 1: brothers and sisters or, whatever right of the of those
- 50:14Speaker 1: who have passed like baseball as much as that person.
- 50:16Speaker 1: Does and if that's not the, case usually it's going
- 50:19Speaker 1: to start to turn. Ugly that's just how it.

- 50:26Speaker 2: all the time, twins well, twins, yes but there's.
- 50:30Speaker 1: There's tons of next. GENERATION i, mean it's rare that
