- 0:25Speaker 1: Brought to us by Donovan Jorgensen Heating cooling Billy, Who's hot,
- 0:28Speaker 1: who's not. There's plenty of territory here, plenty of candidates.
- 0:32Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot in the hot category.
- 0:34Speaker 3: After yesterday's game, will be William Contreras, because you knew
- 0:38Speaker 3: he was going to have a big game in store
- 0:41Speaker 3: for his former club. Four of five, three Ribbi's all
- 0:43Speaker 3: coming on a three run shot. Also had a two
- 0:46Speaker 3: hit game on Saturday night. Nothing necessarily on Friday night,
- 0:49Speaker 3: had a couple of opportunities, but the Brewers were two
- 0:51Speaker 3: of eleven with runners in scoring position on Friday Night.
- 0:54Speaker 3: Onen't just William there, how about Robert Gasser six innings
- 0:58Speaker 3: first winning the big league since twenty four We heard
- 1:00Speaker 3: that with Hunter and he's going to join us coming
- 1:02Speaker 3: up in about twenty minutes from right now.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Gasser's a big piece for him, Drew.
- 1:07Speaker 3: If they're gonna have some question marks still in that rotation,
- 1:11Speaker 3: there's a spot or two up for grabs and Brandon
- 1:14Speaker 3: sprotte and necessarily grabbed it. Maybe Shane Drones trying to
- 1:17Speaker 3: Robert Gasers looked a lot better over his last couple
- 1:19Speaker 3: of appearances as well. And in the hot category for
- 1:23Speaker 3: the Atlanta Braves was Ozzie Albie's who his twelve bombs.
- 1:27Speaker 3: Two of them came on Saturday night by a combined
- 1:30Speaker 3: and aggregate maybe three feet over the wall, but they counted.
- 1:33Speaker 2: He scored every He accounted.
- 1:35Speaker 3: For every run that the Braves scored on Saturday as
- 1:38Speaker 3: they beat the Brewers and Kyle Harrison four to three.
- 1:41Speaker 3: Also in the hot category, Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper
- 1:44Speaker 3: both go yard in a Phillies Sunday Night baseball win. Yesterday,
- 1:48Speaker 3: Bryce Harper hit his three hundred. That was his three
- 1:50Speaker 3: hundred and eightieth career home run and for Kyle Schwarber,
- 1:54Speaker 3: number three sixty nine, three six months three, six nine,
- 1:58Speaker 3: being able to enjoy that one and both potential Hall
- 2:02Speaker 3: of famers sitting there for that Phillies lineup. They're trying
- 2:04Speaker 3: to get themselves back to even and the Brewers team
- 2:07Speaker 3: that they go and take on coming up this week,
- 2:09Speaker 3: start up tonight in Cincinnati Reds. Don't look now, they
- 2:12Speaker 3: took two or three from the Mets, then two or
- 2:15Speaker 3: three from the Yankees. So maybe feeling a little bit
- 2:18Speaker 3: better about Terry Francona's Cincinnati Reds. Is the Brewers going
- 2:21Speaker 3: to invade that ball this week?
- 2:22Speaker 4: They might be trying to make a move, I mean
- 2:24Speaker 4: the twists in terms of a baseball season, and we
- 2:26Speaker 4: have a lot of summer to go here, so we'll
- 2:27Speaker 4: see how that goes there. But it'll be good to see.
- 2:31Speaker 4: Let me see, what do you beg not Geno Smith
- 2:35Speaker 4: facing some allegations.
- 2:36Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that was not hot for Gino Smith this weekend. No, no,
- 2:39Speaker 3: not hot for Gino Smith. Check out check out the internet.
- 2:42Speaker 3: You'll find the video somewhere if you need.
- 2:43Speaker 5: Yeah, not positive.
- 2:45Speaker 4: Some allegations from a woman and it's unclear what they are,
- 2:48Speaker 4: but uh well you can hear her talking about it.
- 2:51Speaker 5: Definitely, yeah, definitely not category from you. Who's hot? Who's not?
- 2:55Speaker 1: Brought just by Donovan Jorgensen employee on thirty years, always hot.
- 3:00Speaker 1: The conchurers be getting more burned for the All Star Game.
- 3:02Speaker 1: He's a two time All Star. He's really heated up.
- 3:05Speaker 1: He's fourth in the balloting right now, behind Atlanta's guy
- 3:10Speaker 1: or should I say Madison's guy.
- 3:11Speaker 2: I was gonna say Drake Baldwin deserves it, Drue. I
- 3:13Speaker 2: wonder if.
- 3:14Speaker 3: Will Smith and Real Muto also ahead of him. Now
- 3:16Speaker 3: this might be better saved for Wednesday and hot Tae
- 3:19Speaker 3: Hum day. I think Brewers guys are getting squeezed on
- 3:22Speaker 3: the balloting because it's all digital now.
- 3:25Speaker 2: Like when the fan balloting was old school.
- 3:28Speaker 3: Usher walks down the aisle at American Family Field, say
- 3:31Speaker 3: how many of these bad boys do you want? And
- 3:33Speaker 3: pair Shape Billy and Arman Sarian are sitting there in
- 3:35Speaker 3: section four twenty, and we grabbed fifty of them.
- 3:38Speaker 5: Sons of guns.
- 3:39Speaker 2: We're poking at that thing with a pen for four innings.
- 3:44Speaker 2: It looks like we eate.
- 3:46Speaker 3: You could think they're peanuts, shells of the little pops
- 3:48Speaker 3: out on Brewers voting. I think it's a little different
- 3:51Speaker 3: now that it's all online, and sure, I got to
- 3:53Speaker 3: come up with a different email address.
- 3:55Speaker 2: I can do that.
- 3:56Speaker 3: I did that when it was the last chance of right,
- 3:58Speaker 3: like when we had to get core Heart in I'm
- 4:01Speaker 3: the last guy. Sure, then I'll make three different email
- 4:04Speaker 3: addresses and forget the passwords to be able to vote
- 4:06Speaker 3: four times on my computer. And we felt like it
- 4:09Speaker 3: was our our honest, god given duty to do that
- 4:13Speaker 3: for our guy and to get our guy over the top.
- 4:15Speaker 3: And I remember living and dying with like, is Corey
- 4:17Speaker 3: Hart going to get these votes? Is Corey Hart gonna
- 4:20Speaker 3: be the last chance into the Al Star Game? Like
- 4:21Speaker 3: we were so committed to it. I'm not really sure
- 4:24Speaker 3: if there are kids.
- 4:24Speaker 4: That are thinking that way anymore, or maybe people just
- 4:27Speaker 4: aren't as aware of the All Star voting in general
- 4:28Speaker 4: because it's not a ballot right in the front of
- 4:30Speaker 4: their face. Billy, Yeah, that's a good point, And I
- 4:32Speaker 4: wonder if that there's a factor there at all. I mean,
- 4:35Speaker 4: there's always been a little small market bias against us.
- 4:38Speaker 4: That's how we fought it, sure, by stuff in the
- 4:41Speaker 4: ballot box, like you know, doing a Third world country style,
- 4:43Speaker 4: you know what I mean it.
- 4:45Speaker 3: That is what I won't wax poetically about my childhood
- 4:48Speaker 3: very much.
- 4:49Speaker 2: Do it please?
- 4:49Speaker 3: Like but like that won't be one of those things
- 4:51Speaker 3: that I'll sit back when I'm older, Drew and just
- 4:54Speaker 3: say things were better back in my day.
- 4:57Speaker 2: But that one I will.
- 4:59Speaker 5: That one, That one I will.
- 5:00Speaker 3: I'll say when you got it when they handed out
- 5:02Speaker 3: the in person paper ballots for the All Star Game,
- 5:05Speaker 3: that was always that's better than this online non that one.
- 5:09Speaker 4: He's surely having some good All Star numbers though, batting
- 5:11Speaker 4: averages two ninety nine, uh ops seven to seventy five.
- 5:15Speaker 4: Talk about this, you know seven dingers now. So William
- 5:17Speaker 4: is doing what he always does, and he's continuing to
- 5:20Speaker 4: really handle a really good young pitching staff. Well, I
- 5:23Speaker 4: think it's one of the more underrated things about William
- 5:25Speaker 4: and uh. I suspect though, if he stays hot and
- 5:28Speaker 4: he and he and he keeps it up here, he'll
- 5:30Speaker 4: he'll get some more burn coming up here, or some
- 5:33Speaker 4: more run at least a little more buzz for the
- 5:35Speaker 4: All Star Game. And not to take any You're right,
- 5:37Speaker 4: Drake Baldwin's aid a heck of a run here. A
- 5:39Speaker 4: lot of deserving guys in that in kind of that
- 5:42Speaker 4: catching role in the NL. But he's just gonna stay hot,
- 5:45Speaker 4: and I think he'll get some more burn the more run.
- 5:47Speaker 3: Who do you think the Burgers are going to get
- 5:48Speaker 3: into the all cerium, Drew, that's a great questions.
- 5:51Speaker 5: Seems like a no brainer.
- 5:53Speaker 1: I think mis might start might start on yeah, because
- 5:56Speaker 1: I don't think they'll start showing. It depends on when
- 5:58Speaker 1: the turnfalls too. It's like when is your you know,
- 6:02Speaker 1: would day for him or if it's like if he
- 6:04Speaker 1: pitches the day before he's out and he's out. I
- 6:06Speaker 1: haven't done the math on that, so I've been.
- 6:09Speaker 3: Trying to and I'm gonna ask Hunter coming up in
- 6:11Speaker 3: about fifteen minutes, because Brandon would have starting tonight. I'd
- 6:14Speaker 3: like to know when what he's gonna be starting at home,
- 6:15Speaker 3: because that's those are always fun nights and I would
- 6:18Speaker 3: definitely like.
- 6:18Speaker 5: It it ic Sunday against the Cubs.
- 6:20Speaker 3: Might line up that it might be Sunday against the Cubs,
- 6:22Speaker 3: And in all reality, Drew, you could uh, because you
- 6:26Speaker 3: could take this as a very much measuring stick enjoyable
- 6:29Speaker 3: series coming up this weekend where you could line up
- 6:31Speaker 3: if you wanted to miss Friday Harrison Saturday Wood or
- 6:35Speaker 3: of Sunday, it's your playoff rotation and here you go,
- 6:37Speaker 3: right now, here you go. Boys, come and see how
- 6:39Speaker 3: you're gonna catch this. Like I I kind of like
- 6:41Speaker 3: that thought of what they could line up this weekend.
- 6:43Speaker 1: I think once we get resolution on Yannis one way
- 6:47Speaker 1: or the other, or like maybe maybe it'll sit through
- 6:50Speaker 1: the draft, make maybe the buck self imposed deadline will pass,
- 6:53Speaker 1: and then he'll still be a Buck through the draft.
- 6:55Speaker 1: But if we get resolution on Yannis, we can start.
- 6:57Speaker 1: Because it's hasn't been getting as much rumble as who
- 6:59Speaker 1: are the Brewer is gonna get because they're gonna add
- 7:01Speaker 1: something someone. They're gonna add bullpen arm at least.
- 7:07Speaker 5: Are they in on Schooble? Is that the Sabbathia type move?
- 7:11Speaker 1: Do they They've got so many prospects that they almost
- 7:14Speaker 1: have to make a move.
- 7:15Speaker 5: They'll be compelled. Is it a is it a third
- 7:18Speaker 5: base bat? Is it something?
- 7:19Speaker 1: Because they have so many prospects, Like I'm not talking
- 7:21Speaker 1: about again, there's some untouchable, says Miday. I wouldn't you're
- 7:24Speaker 1: not gonna trade him. There's a couple of guys that
- 7:26Speaker 1: are probably untouchable. Fisher might be a guy you would
- 7:30Speaker 1: trade maybe, but he would yeah.
- 7:34Speaker 5: And then then it becomes like okay.
- 7:36Speaker 1: So given that Miday Penia and like Cooper Pratt, I
- 7:41Speaker 1: think they could trade ter Rang maybe before it he
- 7:44Speaker 1: runs up against free agency and then do you extend
- 7:46Speaker 1: contraras h is it fascinating options that they have, but
- 7:49Speaker 1: they've worked it out. But I think this is a
- 7:51Speaker 1: year that they have such a bountiful farm system that
- 7:55Speaker 1: they will peel off some prospects and may make okay
- 7:58Speaker 1: at least one and it might be like significant.
- 8:00Speaker 3: Move because you hear the when are they gonna go
- 8:04Speaker 3: all in? I think more than anything Druid's when is
- 8:07Speaker 3: the time that you feel like is the ripest where
- 8:10Speaker 3: your talent down in the lower levels is matching? If not,
- 8:13Speaker 3: you know from the just amount of them, they got
- 8:17Speaker 3: more guys that are gonna be able to play. You
- 8:18Speaker 3: can only play nine at a time, right, and there's
- 8:21Speaker 3: only so many middle infielders that you can have. So
- 8:24Speaker 3: like I heard Andrew Fisher, I think he was on
- 8:26Speaker 3: the foul Territory Show whatever it was. It was a
- 8:28Speaker 3: two minute clip online and my man cut the greatest
- 8:32Speaker 3: Brewers player development promo of all time. He went on
- 8:35Speaker 3: to say, we got like twenty five guys right now
- 8:38Speaker 3: that are playing around here that are all gonna be
- 8:40Speaker 3: big leaders, that are all gonna be really really good.
- 8:42Speaker 3: And we got this guy Jet Williams who he goes
- 8:44Speaker 3: by the playoff time. He's gonna be man in the
- 8:46Speaker 3: hot corner for the Brewers and hitting bombs. I don't
- 8:49Speaker 3: necessarily know about that. He might get spun off, but
- 8:55Speaker 3: you know that might be worth a shot. He's like,
- 8:57Speaker 3: I walk in here and I got the best prospect
- 8:59Speaker 3: in baseball who's taking VP right during my group. It
- 9:03Speaker 3: makes my VP sharper, makes my time betterdays Like fifty
- 9:06Speaker 3: RV I already it's insane the kind of numbers that you.
- 9:09Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, there is a sense of like when
- 9:11Speaker 4: you look at all the prospects the Brewers had, there's
- 9:13Speaker 4: like this embarronment or embarrassment of riches where you're gonna
- 9:15Speaker 4: have a glut of talent.
- 9:16Speaker 5: It's a good problem to have. Then how do you
- 9:18Speaker 5: manage that?
- 9:19Speaker 4: How do you sift through it to try and keep
- 9:20Speaker 4: the best ones and still keep depth, but maybe use
- 9:23Speaker 4: some of that surplus to help you in a trade.
- 9:27Speaker 5: It's it's a good problem to have, but it's.
- 9:28Speaker 4: Also something very important for the Brewers front office to
- 9:30Speaker 4: try and manage because obviously the goals win the World Series.
- 9:34Speaker 4: So it's like, well, we're the spots you really need
- 9:35Speaker 4: help ad to become great and try and put yourself
- 9:38Speaker 4: over the top or put yourself in that position, and
- 9:40Speaker 4: that it can be a very tough thing.
- 9:42Speaker 5: To manage because you don't want to.
- 9:44Speaker 4: You know, you have all these prospects and you might say, okay,
- 9:46Speaker 4: we have a bunch of good ones, it doesn't matter,
- 9:48Speaker 4: but some are gonna become really good players, some might
- 9:50Speaker 4: fade away. How do you kind of manage those and
- 9:53Speaker 4: figure out and try and project, right, it's tough. There's
- 9:56Speaker 4: gonna be a man Laporta in there's some way exactly. Yeah,
- 9:59Speaker 4: there's gonna be It was Printon. There's gonna be a Mattlaporta.
- 10:02Speaker 4: There's gonna be those type of guys that you thought
- 10:04Speaker 4: were great prospects that never turned on Hell Salome if
- 10:07Speaker 4: anyone remembers that name, Oh yeah, you know, there are
- 10:09Speaker 4: names out there. So they can be as valuable as
- 10:13Speaker 4: trade pieces more so than they'll ever be as a
- 10:15Speaker 4: commodity as a player. And how can you figure out
- 10:18Speaker 4: which is which right that's the tough part for the Brewers.
- 10:22Speaker 1: For all the talk about third base and the left
- 10:24Speaker 1: side of the infield like that, Again, they're not expecting
- 10:26Speaker 1: Cooper Pratt to provide a lot of power right now.
- 10:28Speaker 1: He's going to find his way. He will eventually, but
- 10:31Speaker 1: not right at the moment. So you're not They've gotten
- 10:34Speaker 1: no power out of the left side of the infield,
- 10:35Speaker 1: and people have been saying that what have they gotten
- 10:37Speaker 1: on the right field, like when Bowers isn't playing or
- 10:39Speaker 1: when you know who, haven't.
- 10:40Speaker 2: Gotten anything out there.
- 10:41Speaker 5: I don't talk how Freeli has gotten kind of a pass.
- 10:44Speaker 5: He definitely has. There's privilege for.
- 10:46Speaker 1: A two twenty average and a three zero six on
- 10:49Speaker 1: base and you know, a couple of homers.
- 10:51Speaker 5: Nice defense.
- 10:53Speaker 4: Deservedly, he's gotten some equity because he's built up a lot.
- 10:56Speaker 5: He's had really good years for the for the Brewers.
- 10:58Speaker 4: Obviously, last year was great, the gold Glove year was great,
- 11:01Speaker 4: but he struggled with this year as a fan favorite.
- 11:04Speaker 4: Maybe it's a little bit of yeah, but it won't
- 11:06Speaker 4: be forever. I mean, he's gonna have to start performing
- 11:08Speaker 4: to keep that position that when you had that much talent.
- 11:11Speaker 5: That's just the way it is.
- 11:12Speaker 3: It seems like though they've quietly made him the fourth outfielder,
- 11:15Speaker 3: it slowly cuts right, like, very very quickly he became
- 11:20Speaker 3: the fourth outfielder. And it seems like they gave it
- 11:23Speaker 3: two months with everybody right like they they gave him
- 11:26Speaker 3: as much of a run for two months as they could,
- 11:28Speaker 3: Joey much and run they could. And same thing with
- 11:30Speaker 3: David Hamilton Renhifo over at third base. And now we're
- 11:33Speaker 3: gonna start slicing some stuff in not expecting any pop,
- 11:37Speaker 3: I'll be honest, though, I can't say that I anticipated
- 11:40Speaker 3: a whole lot of offense from Cooper Pratt at all.
- 11:44Speaker 3: Anytime my man gets on the pace as he's going
- 11:46Speaker 3: like he he reminds me of like seventh or you
- 11:51Speaker 3: know eight U player that he gets on the bass.
- 11:53Speaker 3: The first thing the first base coach is saying, is
- 11:55Speaker 3: all right, first pitch.
- 11:56Speaker 5: You're off.
- 11:57Speaker 3: It feels like he's a he's an action every single
- 11:59Speaker 3: time him a two hit game on Saturday, another one uh,
- 12:02Speaker 3: and a walk yesterday on base twice like he's been.
- 12:05Speaker 3: He's been a very very nice revelation there. Offensively, he
- 12:08Speaker 3: has shown off some of that, some of the hoes
- 12:10Speaker 3: no pause that he's got over there at shorts shouse.
- 12:12Speaker 3: That was a great throw he had the other day
- 12:13Speaker 3: and that picked my bower. The thing is, what's his
- 12:15Speaker 3: average roun now? Three sixty eight?
- 12:17Speaker 4: Obviously it's super early and there's a small small sample,
- 12:19Speaker 4: so you don't want to put too much into that.
- 12:21Speaker 4: But but Cooper has settled in right away and gotten
- 12:24Speaker 4: some hits. He's already got a couple. You know, it's
- 12:26Speaker 4: got point two of a war point. I mean, it's
- 12:28Speaker 4: not bad for a it's a nice little though for
- 12:31Speaker 4: a week. It's a nice little little week that you know,
- 12:33Speaker 4: that really is I mean, obviously when a guy comes up,
- 12:36Speaker 4: you're getting nervous about you know, is he gonna you know,
- 12:38Speaker 4: feel the pressure and have a slow start and he's
- 12:40Speaker 4: gonna press And that really hasn't happened for Cooper. He's
- 12:43Speaker 4: gotten he's gotten his share of hits and he's doing
- 12:45Speaker 4: his thing and he's just settling in in a nice,
- 12:47Speaker 4: you know, kind of nice routine, in a nice role.
- 12:51Speaker 5: And slowly playing well. So you hope that continues.
- 12:54Speaker 4: And you know, the South Reelly thing, his offense has
- 12:58Speaker 4: gotten a little bit better he had the big double.
- 12:59Speaker 5: Yes, you hope that continues.
- 13:01Speaker 4: As well, because there's definitely a sense of there are
- 13:06Speaker 4: guys on this team and in this organization that can play,
- 13:09Speaker 4: and you have to fight to keep your spot all
- 13:10Speaker 4: the time. I'm sure that's the mentality that Murph and
- 13:13Speaker 4: the organization wants those players to have.
- 13:16Speaker 5: So it seems like it's working in that sense. Yeah.
- 13:19Speaker 1: Again, yeah, they don't need a major overhall, but they
- 13:21Speaker 1: need to add some pieces because other teams are gonna
- 13:23Speaker 1: add pieces and the Brewers are in a position to
- 13:25Speaker 1: add pieces.
- 13:26Speaker 5: Well, it's tough.
- 13:27Speaker 1: You've never been better equipped to add pieces. That's it, Drew,
- 13:30Speaker 1: You just said it.
- 13:30Speaker 3: They've never been as prepared because there I don't think
- 13:33Speaker 3: their major league talent has ever been as in line
- 13:36Speaker 3: with their minor league right like where there are how
- 13:39Speaker 3: many how many times when you were doing that. Now
- 13:41Speaker 3: it's a different day in age. There wasn't MLB pipeline
- 13:44Speaker 3: doing rating systems and people buying Baseball America and baseball perspectives.
- 13:49Speaker 3: But Drew, I mean there weren't times where fans would
- 13:53Speaker 3: be able to name three prospects. Yeah, it feels like
- 13:56Speaker 3: fans can name off, damn near the entire top thirty
- 13:59Speaker 3: now because you're so excited about some of the costers
- 14:01Speaker 3: behind him.
- 14:01Speaker 4: To the point where it's been remarkable for me, because
- 14:04Speaker 4: I've been saying this for a team that's been in
- 14:06Speaker 4: first and had one of the best records in baseball.
- 14:09Speaker 4: This fan base talks about the minor leaguers or the
- 14:11Speaker 4: prospects almost more. That usually only happens when the team
- 14:15Speaker 4: is bad. When the big club is bad, usually that's
- 14:17Speaker 4: when everybody focuses and talks and gets excited about the prospects,
- 14:21Speaker 4: you know, when the weeks and the fielders were coming up.
- 14:23Speaker 4: But it's been such a unique situation to your point, Billy,
- 14:26Speaker 4: that we've had so many that everybody knows about that
- 14:28Speaker 4: gets excited about while having one of the best teams
- 14:31Speaker 4: in the big leagues. And that's it's so it's been
- 14:33Speaker 4: a remarkable kind of run here for Brewers fans.
- 14:36Speaker 3: Uh seventy one to five at a question here on
- 14:38Speaker 3: the talking text line, Drew, why did Jackson slide on
- 14:41Speaker 3: Friday night into home plate with his feet? He would
- 14:44Speaker 3: have been safe if he would have went head first,
- 14:46Speaker 3: could have swam made home plate a little bit more
- 14:48Speaker 3: difficult with it being flat, you can't push the heel
- 14:51Speaker 3: down with your fingers, et cetera. Then Saturday he slides
- 14:54Speaker 3: head first, is safe by a landslide? Is that Do
- 14:57Speaker 3: you think that was maybe coached to the young jack
- 14:59Speaker 3: Jack on Friday night going into Saturday?
- 15:01Speaker 2: Or we talked.
- 15:02Speaker 1: About that earlier with was it a good send or
- 15:05Speaker 1: a bad send? With one out? Should they have you know,
- 15:07Speaker 1: held him? Jayson Lane has been pretty good, I mean
- 15:09Speaker 1: not Jason Lanetdackson has been pretty good.
- 15:11Speaker 5: But I'm with uh, my.
- 15:15Speaker 1: Top players slidenhead first and a home is not my
- 15:18Speaker 1: favorite thing. Okay, yep, I'm always and I'm mad can
- 15:21Speaker 1: happen there. I'm very much in the minority. I'm running
- 15:25Speaker 1: right through that son of a gun.
- 15:26Speaker 5: That used to be the way.
- 15:28Speaker 2: I'm running right through that thing.
- 15:30Speaker 3: And now that Baldwin made it difficult because he was
- 15:33Speaker 3: blocking the plate. Without blocking the plate right, he was
- 15:35Speaker 3: able to where the throw was coming in. But I've
- 15:39Speaker 3: always thought hitting a moving target's a lot harder than
- 15:41Speaker 3: hitting one that's coming in right at you with their
- 15:43Speaker 3: cleats up.
- 15:44Speaker 2: I mean, granted, it's I still.
- 15:46Speaker 3: Think maybe the best part of the play was Baldwin
- 15:48Speaker 3: being able to hang on to the ball.
- 15:49Speaker 2: I don't know how he did.
- 15:51Speaker 1: Yeah, he made a great play and it was a
- 15:53Speaker 1: perfect they did have to have, you know, basically, everything
- 15:55Speaker 1: has to go right for the defense to get the
- 15:56Speaker 1: out there, and it went right.
- 15:58Speaker 2: It was great throw. Yeah, no doubt it was right line.
- 16:00Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm the idea that someone I'm what can happen
- 16:04Speaker 1: with fingers and wrists and arms and elbows and shoulders
- 16:07Speaker 1: like that's a big risk, especially with somebody that already
- 16:10Speaker 1: missed what six weeks hands.
- 16:14Speaker 5: Has gotta be and even with the oven mits. Now,
- 16:16Speaker 5: I'm not a Yeah, I'm not a big fan of
- 16:18Speaker 5: the head first lad in a home.
- 16:19Speaker 3: I don't know that I can ever remember Ryan Brown
- 16:22Speaker 3: sliding head first. I feel like he was always a
- 16:25Speaker 3: cleats up guy and a lot of it. Yeah, to
- 16:28Speaker 3: that point, I thought he was like, I'll protect in
- 16:31Speaker 3: the franchise and those are these two hands in this
- 16:33Speaker 3: arm yell swing the bad Otherwise we got no chance
- 16:36Speaker 3: pretty much.
- 16:36Speaker 1: So when it comes to that, I'm I'm you know,
- 16:39Speaker 1: when it comes to that and it's a decision, I'm
- 16:41Speaker 1: not not gonna say he made a mistake.
- 16:44Speaker 3: There no great baseball games, right, like, it proves that
- 16:48Speaker 3: these are gonna be some good ones. And as much
- 16:51Speaker 3: as you don't want to play the Dodgers, the old champions,
- 16:55Speaker 3: fear no one line always exists.
- 16:57Speaker 2: I wouldn't necessarily be upset if somebody knocked off the brake,
- 17:00Speaker 2: So either, yeah, there's.
- 17:02Speaker 3: The I'm not running for my nightmares, but I'd like
- 17:04Speaker 3: some I'd like those two guys to play each other,
- 17:06Speaker 3: and then we'll take one of the ti.
- 17:08Speaker 1: To extrapolate though, that the Burrs had their best two
- 17:10Speaker 1: pictures and the Braves one of those games, those are
- 17:12Speaker 1: just it's just a blip.
- 17:13Speaker 5: It's like it's a coin toss team.
- 17:15Speaker 1: Two evenly matched teams playing close, tight, competitive games. The
- 17:18Speaker 1: idea that the Brewers can't beat the Braves because of
- 17:20Speaker 1: what happened this weekend kind of silly because the Bruise
- 17:23Speaker 1: ran the table on the Dodgers and then got their
- 17:25Speaker 1: asses kicked in the playoffs.
- 17:26Speaker 5: Doesn't different animals.
- 17:28Speaker 4: We will lose some games, our best pictures will give
- 17:30Speaker 4: up some runs like that's just where it goes, just
- 17:33Speaker 4: how it goes.
- 17:34Speaker 1: We'll talk more Brewers with our buddy Hunter Bombguart. He
- 17:37Speaker 1: is coming up to join us next you're in the
- 17:41Speaker 1: huddle Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. I'm bringing it to you
- 17:47Speaker 1: the huddle, Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. Happy to be joined
- 17:50Speaker 1: on the nicolay lot dot Com Talking text on bar
- 17:51Speaker 1: Opal Hunter, bombguart Our Brewers go to Guy Hunter.
- 17:55Speaker 5: How do you process this weekend? Bruce had the big
- 17:58Speaker 5: day yesterday to avoid a sweep.
- 17:59Speaker 1: They had lost in a row, two very close competitive
- 18:02Speaker 1: games against the Braves. Some people were disappointed with those losses.
- 18:05Speaker 1: I like that that's the standard. Now, how do you
- 18:07Speaker 1: process what happened at Truest Park?
- 18:11Speaker 6: Yeah, good morning.
- 18:11Speaker 7: I think it's I think you were two outs away
- 18:14Speaker 7: from winning a series in Atlanta against one of the
- 18:16Speaker 7: best teams in ball and really the I'll put the
- 18:19Speaker 7: Dodgers for the best team in ball so far this season.
- 18:21Speaker 7: So that's kind of how I look at it. Because
- 18:24Speaker 7: if you know, obviously ifs and butts and what's or
- 18:27Speaker 7: whatever they say, but if Aaron Ashby doesn't give up
- 18:30Speaker 7: those home that home run, now, Asie Albi's you have
- 18:32Speaker 7: a you win two three in Atlanta, and so I think,
- 18:35Speaker 7: and you're also obviously one one slide away from tying
- 18:38Speaker 7: the game on Friday, night. So I think it was
- 18:40Speaker 7: just two competitive games. They felt like playoff games because
- 18:42Speaker 7: they were low scoring. It was a lot about how
- 18:44Speaker 7: you pitched. It was very you know, you had to
- 18:47Speaker 7: take advantage of your opportunities, and obviously on that game
- 18:50Speaker 7: on Friday they couldn't really and honestly a little bit
- 18:54Speaker 7: on they were a little better with runners in scoring
- 18:56Speaker 7: position on Saturday. But over those three games, five hits
- 18:59Speaker 7: with runners scoring position, and then in the second inning
- 19:02Speaker 7: yesterday you get five hits with runners in scoring position.
- 19:05Speaker 7: And that's really the difference, right, you have to take
- 19:06Speaker 7: advantage against those good teams. You have to take advantage
- 19:10Speaker 7: of your opportunities. They didn't do so really the first
- 19:12Speaker 7: two days, especially Friday night, they had more opportunities but
- 19:17Speaker 7: just could not cash in. You know that line drive
- 19:19Speaker 7: Contreras gets doubled off some of those examples where they
- 19:22Speaker 7: just couldn't get runners in, and so with that, I
- 19:25Speaker 7: think then you say, okay, well they were in it there.
- 19:27Speaker 6: Competitive, it's June.
- 19:29Speaker 7: Obviously you want to win these games because you don't
- 19:31Speaker 7: know if maybe a tiebreaker with the Braves is going
- 19:33Speaker 7: to come down to it at the end of the year.
- 19:35Speaker 7: With the buy but I think overall you were competitive,
- 19:38Speaker 7: some really good baseball games, and good to see them
- 19:40Speaker 7: come out with a win yesterday and not get swept.
- 19:42Speaker 6: They would have gotten swept, would have been a little
- 19:43Speaker 6: more concerned.
- 19:44Speaker 7: But they got a win yesterday and in blowout fashion,
- 19:47Speaker 7: which was really needed.
- 19:48Speaker 3: Yeah, that would have been really frustrating. Hunter, You're right,
- 19:50Speaker 3: it wasn't. It's not like a cause for concern, not
- 19:52Speaker 3: hitting panic alarms.
- 19:53Speaker 2: But it's a stunt.
- 19:55Speaker 3: It's some some win getting taken out of sales going
- 19:57Speaker 3: into a week where you start up one of the
- 19:59Speaker 3: tougher stretches right like now to the All Star Break
- 20:03Speaker 3: is where the men are gonna be made right because
- 20:05Speaker 3: you are gonna get, if my math is correct, one
- 20:08Speaker 3: off day, maybe two until the All Star break. They
- 20:11Speaker 3: go on that long one off day before the All
- 20:13Speaker 3: Star Break, and there's that five game and four day
- 20:17Speaker 3: series in Saint Louis that's gonna be in the middle there.
- 20:20Speaker 3: Good time to get some reinforcements back in the rotation
- 20:23Speaker 3: with Woody tonight.
- 20:24Speaker 2: And then what does it look like? Because I always
- 20:27Speaker 2: go to ESPN to.
- 20:28Speaker 3: Try to figure out where the tracking is, I should
- 20:30Speaker 3: just go to Hunter Beyon air, because you'll put out
- 20:32Speaker 3: the probable starters. When the Brewers put it out there,
- 20:34Speaker 3: you go, but where are we stacking up right now?
- 20:36Speaker 3: Because it looks like it could be Miss looks like
- 20:38Speaker 3: you might and I kind of like just putting it
- 20:41Speaker 3: out on the table, letting them see it. Bauz this
- 20:44Speaker 3: weekend against the Cubs, that could you if they wanted
- 20:47Speaker 3: to Hunter, they throw Miserowski, Harrison, Woodruff, hold up, try
- 20:51Speaker 3: to see if you can hit it and see if
- 20:53Speaker 3: you guys can catch up, because you win that series.
- 20:55Speaker 3: Very similar to when you went to Wrigley a year
- 20:59Speaker 3: ago almost to the day and they were having a
- 21:03Speaker 3: chance to put you double digits games back and it
- 21:07Speaker 3: ends up getting pushed and it was that weird rainout deal.
- 21:09Speaker 3: But the Brewers seemed like they got a lot of
- 21:10Speaker 3: headed steam and ended up chasing on the Cubs after
- 21:13Speaker 3: that series.
- 21:15Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a very good point. I mean you you
- 21:17Speaker 7: it looks like they are lining up miss Rowski and
- 21:19Speaker 7: Harrison this weekend, and then I guess it would be
- 21:22Speaker 7: technically Robert Gasser would be Sunday, but they could easily
- 21:26Speaker 7: put Woodroff there because you have what Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,
- 21:29Speaker 7: Friday Saturday. Quick math gives you five days of rest
- 21:32Speaker 7: in between Woodrof on Monday, Woodrof on Sunday.
- 21:34Speaker 6: So that's that's possible for sure.
- 21:36Speaker 7: I'm interested once Woodroff comes back and they go into
- 21:39Speaker 7: that stretch, if they keep put the six man rotation,
- 21:41Speaker 7: if you know, if they go basically with with without
- 21:45Speaker 7: someone in the bullpen right because I mean, well, I
- 21:49Speaker 7: guess they have a they have a five man right
- 21:51Speaker 7: right now, and then they're gonna add Woodrof, which will
- 21:53Speaker 7: get you to a six man. Do they keep that
- 21:55Speaker 7: six man or do they say, okay, Robert Gass or
- 21:57Speaker 7: Shank drow and let's throw you in the bullpen, maybe
- 21:59Speaker 7: Piggy something like that, so then they can be a
- 22:02Speaker 7: little more flexible when it comes to the bullpen arms.
- 22:04Speaker 7: Because you're right, they have three days against the Reds here,
- 22:07Speaker 7: so you've got Rodderuff tonight, Sprote Tomorrow, Drowan on Wednesday,
- 22:11Speaker 7: off Day Thursday, and then you have eighteen games and
- 22:14Speaker 7: seventeen days. We all remember the nineteen games in eighteen
- 22:17Speaker 7: days stretch last year. It's going to be basically the
- 22:19Speaker 7: same thing because you have that five game series in
- 22:21Speaker 7: Saint Louis with the makeup of the rainout, so that
- 22:24Speaker 7: is where you're going to need pitching. Do they go
- 22:26Speaker 7: with the six man rotation especially to save arms like
- 22:28Speaker 7: miz like Harrison who have not especially like a miss
- 22:32Speaker 7: you know, who hasn't gotten to the innings that he's
- 22:35Speaker 7: probably going to get to this season. It's possible. And
- 22:40Speaker 7: so you're looking at if you're looking at that Cup
- 22:42Speaker 7: series and you want to see mis hint, hint, you
- 22:44Speaker 7: may want to buy tickets to Friday night's game because
- 22:47Speaker 7: that really is what it lines up to be right now,
- 22:49Speaker 7: and they're going to give them an extra day. They
- 22:52Speaker 7: could obviously they could have pitched him Wednesday, but anytime
- 22:55Speaker 7: this team is going to be able to give him
- 22:56Speaker 7: an extra day, I think they're going to do it,
- 22:58Speaker 7: and so I think they make he put this six
- 23:00Speaker 7: man rotation through, you know, till the All Star break.
- 23:03Speaker 5: We'll see talking.
- 23:05Speaker 1: To Hunter Brown Ground or Baseball go to guys brought
- 23:07Speaker 1: to us by Import Minded, your trusted source for vehicle
- 23:09Speaker 1: care on twenty seventh Street, just off of eight ninety four.
- 23:14Speaker 5: Hunter.
- 23:15Speaker 1: Meanwhile, back among the Tyrant Strip club ads, you're deep
- 23:17Speaker 1: into baseball. You got any thoughts on the Yanna situation.
- 23:20Speaker 1: We're gonna get a resolution.
- 23:23Speaker 5: I yes, I have thoughts.
- 23:25Speaker 7: I was, I was, I was texting uh with our
- 23:31Speaker 7: with our buddy Spencer over the week. He like, he
- 23:33Speaker 7: likes to keep me update on anything, you know. He
- 23:36Speaker 7: he He is like on different parts of Twitter that
- 23:40Speaker 7: I I don't necessarily like.
- 23:43Speaker 5: And he's got his own Internet.
- 23:45Speaker 4: It's sort of like Billy Billy kind of has his
- 23:47Speaker 4: own like Internet that I never see.
- 23:49Speaker 5: Okay, the dark way, a good way, not the good way,
- 23:52Speaker 5: but you always see stuff I don't see. And Spencer's
- 23:54Speaker 5: got that too in a different way. It's like a
- 23:57Speaker 5: it's like a totally different neighborhood that I never I
- 24:00Speaker 5: like being. I'm glad you mentioned that Hunter that he
- 24:03Speaker 5: does have.
- 24:04Speaker 7: This it's always go ahead, Yeah, it's it's always a
- 24:07Speaker 7: good thing to be with Spencer, I think. So he's
- 24:10Speaker 7: sending me these updates and it's like, I mean, the
- 24:14Speaker 7: amount I have never seen the amount of speculation and rumors,
- 24:17Speaker 7: conflicting rumors. I mean, he's going to this team. It's
- 24:20Speaker 7: gonna happen in twenty four hours. It doesn't, it's gonna
- 24:22Speaker 7: happen in forty eight hours.
- 24:23Speaker 6: It doesn't.
- 24:24Speaker 7: It's gonna happen in ten out, it doesn't. It's gonna
- 24:26Speaker 7: happen today, It doesn't. And it's all these people who
- 24:28Speaker 7: are trying to get clicks and they're not reputable and
- 24:30Speaker 7: they don't have sources, and they are throwing stuff out
- 24:32Speaker 7: there and they think they heard from a friend of
- 24:34Speaker 7: a friend of a friend of a friend of a
- 24:35Speaker 7: friend of a friend of a friend, and it's and
- 24:37Speaker 7: it's not coming true. It's like just at this point
- 24:40Speaker 7: I get it, like it's fun for us, and it's
- 24:42Speaker 7: fun fodder, like oh, this could be the trade package,
- 24:45Speaker 7: and like some of that is fun, but at this
- 24:46Speaker 7: point it's like, oh my, like like the report yesterday
- 24:50Speaker 7: or whatever the polymarket put out. And that's that's the
- 24:53Speaker 7: thing too, with these Kelshi and the Poly We're in
- 24:55Speaker 7: this whole another world of like, now, oh the look
- 24:57Speaker 7: at the odds of this team and look at.
- 24:58Speaker 3: That the famous Bucks outsider, Like it's always gonna be
- 25:03Speaker 3: a tough I mean, that's gonna block me.
- 25:05Speaker 2: It's gonna be a tough deal.
- 25:06Speaker 3: When those are the reports coming out right now, Apparently
- 25:09Speaker 3: Windy has within the last couple of minutes, though I'd
- 25:11Speaker 3: get upset.
- 25:12Speaker 2: The Celtics are all in.
- 25:14Speaker 3: They're all in on trying to get you honest, and
- 25:17Speaker 3: they've officially offered Jalen Brown, so.
- 25:19Speaker 5: We are okay, well, there you go.
- 25:20Speaker 4: He had to have something because he didn't want to
- 25:22Speaker 4: be beat out by Heat Mews with the school.
- 25:25Speaker 5: So I mess that one up.
- 25:26Speaker 7: Yeah, and and what it was only just a couple
- 25:29Speaker 7: of days ago that we were like, yeah, it's not
- 25:30Speaker 7: gonna be the Celtics, Like, it's probably not gonna be
- 25:32Speaker 7: the So it's just like, right, it's gonna be It's
- 25:35Speaker 7: it was gonna be the Heat, you know, yesterday or whatever.
- 25:37Speaker 7: And then you know, Polymarket says yesterday it's gonna happen
- 25:40Speaker 7: the next forty eight hours.
- 25:41Speaker 6: Well guess what's happened. What's in the next forty eight hours?
- 25:43Speaker 6: The draft?
- 25:43Speaker 7: Like we we've known that this is likely gonna happen
- 25:46Speaker 7: before the draft, Like okay, like we're just putting out
- 25:49Speaker 7: statements any anyway.
- 25:51Speaker 6: It gets it gets me fired up. I like that

- 25:58Speaker 4: If you ever do one. What was your you said, yes,
- 26:00Speaker 4: I have thoughts?
- 26:01Speaker 5: What was it? What was the first thing I have
- 26:04Speaker 5: that's a good budget.
- 26:06Speaker 1: This officially our current electric superhero the day he's the winner. Yes,
- 26:11Speaker 1: thank your dot com dot com the superheroes that will
- 26:14Speaker 1: help you out with anything you need in terms of.
- 26:16Speaker 4: Electric Unless you are a diligently credentialed and long standing reporter,
- 26:21Speaker 4: don't wake up Hunter with these rumors.
- 26:23Speaker 5: He doesn't want to know unless.
- 26:24Speaker 3: You have a Yeah, I do like that, he said,
- 26:26Speaker 3: Evans City area or whatever your name is, Get up
- 26:28Speaker 3: out of here, get out of here.
- 26:30Speaker 6: You're right.
- 26:30Speaker 5: They all mostly are fake people.
- 26:32Speaker 4: Fake people will fake accounts or fake reporters.
- 26:36Speaker 3: Right, yeah, all right, let's get back. Let's get back
- 26:38Speaker 3: to what he Hunter reports. That's the Milwaukee Brewers. So
- 26:42Speaker 3: how quickly are people going to coming up this week?
- 26:45Speaker 3: Race to the Brewers team store to get the Cooper
- 26:48Speaker 3: Pratt suerseys because uh, four or five games with a
- 26:51Speaker 3: hit offense was supposed to be what he struggled with Hunter,
- 26:54Speaker 3: I made the joke that he looks like the youth
- 26:56Speaker 3: baseball player that once he gets on first base, the
- 26:59Speaker 3: first thing the first base coach is saying is get
- 27:01Speaker 3: ready to run. Get ready to run, Because it seems
- 27:03Speaker 3: like he's off at the crack of the bat, or
- 27:05Speaker 3: within the first two pitches he's trying to swipe second base.
- 27:08Speaker 3: He's been very good on defense, and knew that that
- 27:12Speaker 3: was a part of his game.
- 27:13Speaker 2: But him being comfortable to play right out.
- 27:16Speaker 3: Of the gates with something I wasn't anticipating for sure,
- 27:19Speaker 3: for any major leaguer.
- 27:20Speaker 7: I mean, even if you're a guy coming up with
- 27:22Speaker 7: the with the stature of a Jackson Curio or someone
- 27:25Speaker 7: like that, like it still take the major leagues. I
- 27:27Speaker 7: mean the Cooper Pratt said it right after his first game,
- 27:30Speaker 7: like it's a lot different in the major leagues than
- 27:33Speaker 7: than the minor leagues, Like that is a transition that
- 27:36Speaker 7: everybody has to go through. But he's really taking it
- 27:39Speaker 7: in stride. Yeah, three sixty eight through his first six games,
- 27:42Speaker 7: three stolen bases, that's seven to seventy seven ops. And
- 27:46Speaker 7: like you said, he's doing it on a defensive side
- 27:48Speaker 7: as well. Had a nice backhanded, you know, spin and
- 27:50Speaker 7: throw yesterday and a great pick by Bowers to make
- 27:53Speaker 7: the out. But he has been impressive and that's look,
- 27:56Speaker 7: you just needed him to be better than the you know,
- 27:59Speaker 7: the three guys of Ren Heitho or Tis in Hamilton,
- 28:02Speaker 7: and not even all of it, like you just needed more.
- 28:04Speaker 7: Really the guy he took the roster spot of and
- 28:06Speaker 7: that's Ren Heitho. And you think about Ren heafoh did
- 28:08Speaker 7: he was hitting two h five, so you know the
- 28:11Speaker 7: bar was pretty low with that. But he has come
- 28:14Speaker 7: through and that's what makes it exciting. If he's doing
- 28:16Speaker 7: this now, think of what he can do in the
- 28:18Speaker 7: future when he gets to you know, a couple of
- 28:20Speaker 7: years down the road. I get it's only six games
- 28:22Speaker 7: and everybody goes through a great six game stretch at
- 28:25Speaker 7: some point during the season, but to do it in
- 28:27Speaker 7: your first six games in the major leagues and showed
- 28:30Speaker 7: this kind of potential and this sort of promise and
- 28:33Speaker 7: fired up. I'm sure there's a little bit of, you know,
- 28:36Speaker 7: youthful energy when a new guy comes into that clubhouse.
- 28:39Speaker 7: I know they're a young team relatively overall, but I'm
- 28:43Speaker 7: sure it gives a little boost to the clubhouse. And
- 28:45Speaker 7: a guy like that comes in and not only comes
- 28:46Speaker 7: in but has success fouls one off his leg yesterday,
- 28:49Speaker 7: stays in the game, you know, is able to still
- 28:52Speaker 7: make a really nice play in the next inning. So
- 28:55Speaker 7: it's been really impressive what we've seen from him. He
- 28:57Speaker 7: doesn't seem you know too, the moment doesn't seem too
- 29:00Speaker 7: big for him. And in a twenty as a twenty
- 29:03Speaker 7: one year old, you thought maybe that that would be
- 29:05Speaker 7: the case at least to start at all.
- 29:07Speaker 6: But no, he has really taken in stride. He's fun
- 29:09Speaker 6: to talk to.
- 29:10Speaker 7: I'm excited because this guy, you know, you're gonna hopefully
- 29:15Speaker 7: see him at shortstop for many years to come.
- 29:17Speaker 6: And it's a great start hunter.
- 29:19Speaker 1: Anything else we need to know what Woodroff coming back tonight,
- 29:21Speaker 1: big story. He's off the Orthopedic Associates of Wisconsin Injury
- 29:24Speaker 1: Report Orthowisconsin dot com. There is a difference, but Priesters
- 29:28Speaker 1: done shelved. We don't know, like they're saying eight to
- 29:31Speaker 1: ten months, we'll see, just see you next year. Get
- 29:33Speaker 1: ready for spring training, Lockridge. Any other updates on guys
- 29:37Speaker 1: that might return that can help who's in the pipeline.
- 29:42Speaker 7: Yeah, we'll see if we get an update on any
- 29:43Speaker 7: of those guys coming up here within the next uh,
- 29:46Speaker 7: you know, this series or if not that. If not
- 29:49Speaker 7: this series, I would think coming up when they return home.
- 29:52Speaker 7: The last update we had on Logan Henderson was a
- 29:55Speaker 7: projected early July return, so we're getting we're getting, you know,
- 30:00Speaker 7: I don't know if they're going to do a rehab
- 30:02Speaker 7: start for him before he comes back, so that's possible.
- 30:06Speaker 7: Dl Hall is still a late July. Colman Crow's in
- 30:09Speaker 7: early July as well. Now where is there? Is there
- 30:12Speaker 7: still room for everybody? That's gonna be obviously the question
- 30:14Speaker 7: right Henderson comes back, I know how good he's pitched,
- 30:17Speaker 7: but are you going to add him and take out
- 30:20Speaker 7: a Gas or take out a drow And from that
- 30:22Speaker 7: starting rotation, who do you send down for woodrif today
- 30:24Speaker 7: will be interesting? Is it like a Drew Rom or
- 30:26Speaker 7: a Craig Yoho. I want to see more of Yoho,
- 30:30Speaker 7: Like I'd really like to see more of him, especially
- 30:32Speaker 7: in maybe a closer game or even where you're winning
- 30:37Speaker 7: in the sixth inning or something like that if you
- 30:38Speaker 7: need him, But just by sheer numbers, Drew Rom being
- 30:42Speaker 7: a lefty, I feel like he may stay up when
- 30:44Speaker 7: Woodroff is activated tonight, but otherwise, yeah, I mean rob
- 30:47Speaker 7: Z is written mid to late July, so you have
- 30:50Speaker 7: guys like dal Hall and rob Ze mid to late July.
- 30:53Speaker 7: You have Logan Henderson and Coleman Crow early July. This
- 30:55Speaker 7: is all projected as of about a week ago. Brandon
- 30:58Speaker 7: Lockridge was still estimated to return in late June, but
- 31:02Speaker 7: he was he had a setback in injection last homestand
- 31:05Speaker 7: so I wonder if we'll we'll still get him in
- 31:08Speaker 7: late June or maybe at early July for Brandon Woodriff
- 31:11Speaker 7: might be or sorry for Brandon Lockridge might be a
- 31:13Speaker 7: little more realistic. And then Jarrick Canig has been in
- 31:17Speaker 7: the in Triple A since May twenty ninth, so we're
- 31:19Speaker 7: coming up a week from today is a month down there,
- 31:21Speaker 7: which is when that rehab assignment expires. He's pitched in
- 31:24Speaker 7: ten games of four zero zero ERA, but over the
- 31:26Speaker 7: weekend one and two thirds innings, no runs for strikeouts,
- 31:30Speaker 7: So he looked a little better over the weekend, and
- 31:32Speaker 7: it just it kind of sounded like they were maybe
- 31:35Speaker 7: going to take every day they could of that rehab
- 31:37Speaker 7: assignment just to see what he could do. And then
- 31:40Speaker 7: I mean, there's a chance if he's not pitching well
- 31:42Speaker 7: where they option him back, but they just need lefties
- 31:45Speaker 7: in that bullpen, So I wonder if he does take
- 31:47Speaker 7: maybe he takes Drew romspot Woodrift takes Yoho's spot on
- 31:51Speaker 7: the current rosters kind of how I see that over
- 31:53Speaker 7: the next week or so well.
- 31:54Speaker 2: And is the biggest injury update. What's going on with
- 31:56Speaker 2: the skipper?
- 31:57Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, he's gonna have the the ruptured
- 32:02Speaker 7: disc surgery coming up on Thursday, and then hip replacement
- 32:06Speaker 7: over the All Star break. So that guy is yeah,
- 32:09Speaker 7: he's he's a boy. It was he was that last
- 32:12Speaker 7: He's not.
- 32:12Speaker 2: Gonna miss any games for this hunter.
- 32:14Speaker 3: He's gonna have a back surgery and a hip surgery
- 32:16Speaker 3: and he says, I'm just gonna be there every night.
- 32:18Speaker 5: What an absolute warrior. My goodness, this guy.
- 32:20Speaker 7: I mean right, I mean yeah, I mean I don't
- 32:24Speaker 7: I don't know the details of the like the ruptured
- 32:27Speaker 7: disc one, but like the one that Yelich had and
- 32:29Speaker 7: some of these other guys have, it's kind of that
- 32:31Speaker 7: microscopic thing right where they go in.
- 32:32Speaker 5: It's not as invasive as.
- 32:34Speaker 6: Maybe other surgery.
- 32:36Speaker 7: Now, the hip replacement you know obviously true that was
- 32:38Speaker 7: one you had recently, right, so yeah, you know you
- 32:42Speaker 7: know that, and that's why they're doing it over the
- 32:44Speaker 7: All Star break. But man, yeah, if he doesn't miss
- 32:47Speaker 7: any games because of this. Yeah, warrior is a good
- 32:49Speaker 7: way to describe it.
- 32:50Speaker 1: Arm Yeah, I mean when were you back doing stuff
- 32:53Speaker 1: after your hip doing a show from home in like
- 32:56Speaker 1: two or three days?
- 32:57Speaker 5: Two days hit that bell, come on now.
- 32:59Speaker 1: Colonel super I went, I had a walker for a day,
- 33:03Speaker 1: ditch that went to crutches, ditch those after a couple
- 33:06Speaker 1: of days, and had a cane, so it was like
- 33:08Speaker 1: it was like a week week and a half jumping
- 33:10Speaker 1: around ditching, just walking wobbly.
- 33:12Speaker 3: Yeah, no, with no assist. And coaches are also different.
- 33:15Speaker 3: I remember our coach k coach Kowski over at kill Universe.
- 33:18Speaker 3: He had his all, he had his hip er place,
- 33:20Speaker 3: I want to say, over spring break, and my man
- 33:22Speaker 3: would walk to work and we didn't even notice it.
- 33:25Speaker 3: And then all of a sudden, like at the end
- 33:26Speaker 3: of the year, his wife's like, yeah, market is hipper place.
- 33:28Speaker 3: We're like, wait what Yeah, so I guess maybe it's
- 33:30Speaker 3: not as big of a but I heard that. I'm like, wait, okay,
- 33:33Speaker 3: so he's gonna be gone for a while and it's
- 33:35Speaker 3: gonna be Chris Hooker, well somebody because they don't have
- 33:38Speaker 3: a bench coach. I didn't know who was gonna be
- 33:39Speaker 3: taken over at that time, and Murph's like, don't worry,
- 33:41Speaker 3: I got you, guys.
- 33:42Speaker 5: I was just gonna think that, like, who does take over?
- 33:44Speaker 3: Do we know?
- 33:45Speaker 5: Is it nest Or?
- 33:46Speaker 7: I think it's I think it's Jason Lane. I would
- 33:48Speaker 7: think he runs things, and then you'd have because he's
- 33:51Speaker 7: like the I don't know if they call him the
- 33:53Speaker 7: I can't remember the field coordinator.
- 33:54Speaker 4: I think strategy coordinator, where Nestor Corridor is the major
- 33:58Speaker 4: league field coordinator, but Jays Lands the offense and strategy coordinator.
- 34:02Speaker 5: According to the website, there you go.
- 34:04Speaker 1: Field coordinators kind of running spring training practices and stuff.
- 34:07Speaker 5: That's kind of like.
- 34:08Speaker 2: That, right that sco just out there and everything.
- 34:12Speaker 5: We don't want. We don't want old binety to number
- 34:14Speaker 5: ninety two.
- 34:14Speaker 4: Daniel Vogelbach in there just calling getting well and Toss.
- 34:18Speaker 1: I think the only guy that in the staff that's
- 34:20Speaker 1: manages Matt Erickson.
- 34:21Speaker 2: I was gonna say Ericson obviously years of manager.
- 34:24Speaker 8: He's managed a lot. That would be a good one,
- 34:26Speaker 8: old school management. It's not going to miss anything. I
- 34:29Speaker 8: just love that he's just like, guys, don't worry about it.
- 34:31Speaker 8: We had a heart attack during a workout in the dugout,
- 34:33Speaker 8: and he's still.
- 34:37Speaker 2: I should I should have thought of that.
- 34:39Speaker 3: He did have a heart attack in the dugout workout,
- 34:41Speaker 3: had a heart attack.
- 34:42Speaker 4: He can manage from the dugout like from the hospital bed,
- 34:45Speaker 4: like Lou Brown and Major League two.
- 34:46Speaker 2: And still brings something maybe one of the best lines.
- 34:48Speaker 2: But didn't he apparently say it's a vogel Bach. He goes, Wait,
- 34:52Speaker 2: I'm the one that had the heart attack. Wait, what
- 34:55Speaker 2: have How does this work?

- 36:52Speaker 1: what's our waken Bank story today?
- 36:54Speaker 4: Uh?
- 36:54Speaker 3: Drew, I remember a day and age not too long ago.
- 36:57Speaker 3: Read about a year ago that Rafael Devers hated it
- 37:00Speaker 3: first base.
- 37:01Speaker 4: Uh.
- 37:01Speaker 3: Now, Rafael Devers plays for the San Francisco Giants. He
- 37:04Speaker 3: is their first baseman. He's one of the names that
- 37:06Speaker 3: apparently is out there on the trade block once again
- 37:09Speaker 3: because the Giants desperately want to offload some of their
- 37:11Speaker 3: pieces that they're paying big money to. Apparently it's Matt Chapman,
- 37:15Speaker 3: maybe Willie Domas, maybe Rafael Devers. So this one's gonna
- 37:17Speaker 3: be a little bit harder after yesterday. Giants are cheeks.
- 37:20Speaker 3: They're fifteen games under five hundred. They just got swept
- 37:23Speaker 3: by the Marlins. And in the ninth inning of yesterday's
- 37:25Speaker 3: two to one ball game, Devers got on base trying
- 37:28Speaker 3: to be able to plate that tying run. Coach V
- 37:33Speaker 3: Tony calls in a pinch runner, and well this is
- 37:35Speaker 3: how it sounded when the star over at first base.
- 37:38Speaker 3: Rafael Devers, who hated first base, didn't want to get off.
- 37:43Speaker 7: And let's see if the Giants two sent Jonah Cox
- 37:45Speaker 7: out there, they're gonna.
- 37:52Speaker 2: Great at pat two to three to two to walk.
- 38:00Speaker 5: I have some yelling Devers is. Devers is trying to
- 38:07Speaker 5: send Cox back to the dugout. Not happy.
- 38:14Speaker 2: He's yelling at me.
- 38:15Speaker 5: He literally waved him away. He did. He does not
- 38:20Speaker 5: want any part of a.
- 38:21Speaker 2: He didn't want anybody touching either.
- 38:25Speaker 5: Little ticked, little ticked.
- 38:27Speaker 2: He gives them a tumble finger to Cox, who comes.
- 38:30Speaker 3: Out to pinch run for him, looks back in the dugout, says,
- 38:34Speaker 3: I ain't coming out.
- 38:34Speaker 2: No, no, no.
- 38:37Speaker 3: Coach V said, yes, get up out of there, wouldn't
- 38:40Speaker 3: talk to anybody, walked straight into the clubhouse.
- 38:43Speaker 6: Drew.
- 38:44Speaker 3: Now, remember Miami is the place where the President Day
- 38:47Speaker 3: conversation happened a year ago. Nick Cassianos, Apparently I was
- 38:50Speaker 3: where it was all done with the Phillies after he
- 38:52Speaker 3: got pulled out of Miami game. People don't like getting
- 38:55Speaker 3: pulled from their games in Miami, you know.
- 38:58Speaker 4: So that's what it is, Billy, that's a good It
- 39:00Speaker 4: must be at miamithing because that's where it happened, Like
- 39:02Speaker 4: you said so, and and listen, Roger Dorn did the
- 39:05Speaker 4: same thing once in Majorly two.
- 39:07Speaker 5: So we've seen it before.
- 39:08Speaker 3: Oh, that's where I saw it too. That was that
- 39:10Speaker 3: was where I saw it too. Uh, it might be
- 39:13Speaker 3: all bad there for Buster Posy and Company. In San
- 39:15Speaker 3: Francisco drew as bad as it got at certain times.
- 39:18Speaker 3: And Uh, in Milwaukee, we you were covering the team.
- 39:20Speaker 3: Did anybody wave themselves, wave somebody off the field or
- 39:23Speaker 3: were they just begging somebody to come and take them out.
- 39:25Speaker 5: It's more of the latter.
- 39:26Speaker 1: But Yeah, there was a time that Mike Dejohn and
- 39:30Speaker 1: Jerry Royster got into it on the mound.
- 39:32Speaker 5: I remember that changed. That was pretty epic, and I
- 39:34Speaker 5: think did John wanted to be hooked.
- 39:36Speaker 3: And we had the nice moment between miss and Uh
- 39:39Speaker 3: and Murph. A couple of weeks ago, where m is like, no,
- 39:41Speaker 3: you're not taking me out. You're not taking me out.
- 39:43Speaker 3: Vitella is like, uh no, I already made the change,
- 39:46Speaker 3: all right, We're not burning in the position. Get up
- 39:48Speaker 3: out of here, dude, Get up out of here. We're
- 39:49Speaker 3: trying to win a games like, dude, we're fifteen games in.
- 39:50Speaker 5: The final trying no.
- 39:59Speaker 2: Mark get in their run for Dorn.
- 40:11Speaker 5: Dork.
- 40:13Speaker 3: So Dorn gets his first hit of the season, although
- 40:16Speaker 3: it doesn't look like he's ready to leave you dork.
- 40:19Speaker 5: Ted couldn't help myself. Love it, Love it.
- 40:23Speaker 1: Thanks to Hunter Baumguard for hanging out with us our
- 40:25Speaker 1: current electric superhero today. We're gonna do it again tomorrow.
