Speaker 2: we got a powerpack show today because it's NFL schedule

2:08
Speaker 2: are the Packers are playing the opponents that we already
2:10
Speaker 2: know that they're going to play in the twenty twenty
2:12
Speaker 2: sixth season. I'm Drew Wilsonville Schmid Arman, sorry, and we
2:16
Speaker 2: also have to work through the grief of a tough
2:19
Speaker 2: Wednesday night at the ballpark, a brutal loss by the Brewers.
2:23
Speaker 4: You have to swallow it as part of it.
2:25
Speaker 2: Whoa, you have to it's part of it.
2:27
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm like I said, the shower theory of you
2:31
Speaker 5: leave it at the ballpark and that's it, you put
2:33
Speaker 5: it away.
2:34
Speaker 2: That's That's about.
2:35
Speaker 5: As quick of a night to try and forget as
2:38
Speaker 5: you possibly can before twelve forty one today. But you know,
2:41
Speaker 5: it's almost like you could have seen it coming. It's
2:43
Speaker 5: almost like you could have seen it coming. When Abner
2:45
Speaker 5: your Reba's first pitch legit almost decapitates his Dominican Republic
2:50
Speaker 5: World Baseball Classic teammate just might not have been his
2:53
Speaker 5: night at the at the old park last night. And sadly,
2:55
Speaker 5: Gavin Sheets got one too many, a one sinkers with
2:59
Speaker 5: an opportunity to.
3:00
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was an ominous beginning to the inning.
3:03
Speaker 2: But yeah, he gets the slider up there and almost
3:05
Speaker 2: like threw it to the backstop. I just took the
3:07
Speaker 2: guy's head off or to hit it to the backstop
3:10
Speaker 2: his first pitch. But then he gets to it. So
3:13
Speaker 2: as I'm processing last evening's events, I'm thinking to myself,
3:17
Speaker 2: all right, we're gonna focus on Uibay and the hiccup.
3:21
Speaker 2: We're gonna focus on the the fact that the offense
3:24
Speaker 2: didn't do a lot. They scored one run. You don't
3:25
Speaker 2: win make nice scoring one run, Or are we gonna
3:28
Speaker 2: focus on how awesome is is? Good? God? He is
3:33
Speaker 2: h Drew.
3:33
Speaker 5: He's one of the most electric players at that position
3:35
Speaker 5: that we've seen, Like I don't I don't know that
3:37
Speaker 5: we've seen a young guy have that kind of ability
3:41
Speaker 5: to I mean, we've had great young pitchers in here,
3:43
Speaker 5: and I'm not trying to take anyway from you know,
3:44
Speaker 5: Sheeter at the time when he first came up and
3:46
Speaker 5: things like that, but the the electricity in the building,
3:50
Speaker 5: the musty TV energy that he brought, and then also
3:53
Speaker 5: a little bit of just swagger that we thought was.
3:56
Speaker 2: Maybe a little bit of immaturity a year ago.
3:59
Speaker 5: Now I got to imagine it's downright just disdain from opponents.
4:03
Speaker 5: The way that he's lighting him up, shutting them down
4:05
Speaker 5: and letting you hear about it afterwards.
4:07
Speaker 4: He's a super nova.
4:08
Speaker 6: I mean, and Sheets is a good example, Billy, I
4:10
Speaker 6: think for his air to come up, but even he
4:13
Speaker 6: wasn't pumping him as hard as Miserowski's been doing it,
4:16
Speaker 6: you know, with with a fastball obviously, but also with
4:19
Speaker 6: the hook. You know, just complete command control. And like
4:23
Speaker 6: you said, billieve the confidence. He's a supernova. He's something special.
4:27
Speaker 6: You know when he if man, you just pray for
4:31
Speaker 6: health and all those things because he truly has a
4:33
Speaker 6: special track going in the special future.
4:35
Speaker 4: And he's ours, which is great. And yeah, you know, you.
4:38
Speaker 6: Waste a I don't want to say waste because it
4:40
Speaker 6: still matters what he did last night, but it was
4:42
Speaker 6: a bummer that you couldn't get the win just for him,
4:44
Speaker 6: because it deserved. He deserved to get that last end
4:47
Speaker 6: the Moniker. You can't pitch it any better than that.
4:49
Speaker 6: I was absolutely special.
4:50
Speaker 2: He goes out for the eighth warming up, it's like, oh,
4:54
Speaker 2: they're gonna let him venture north of one hundred pitches,
4:56
Speaker 2: you know, let him pitch the eighth and shorten the game.
4:58
Speaker 2: And then he has whatever cramping or whatever issues he
5:01
Speaker 2: had and couldn't pitch the eighth.
5:04
Speaker 4: And seenas started in the eighth these days is like
5:05
Speaker 4: seeing Bigfoot.
5:06
Speaker 2: It's insane. Yeah, goodtime, miss is special. Like, when's the
5:10
Speaker 2: last time we were this excited about a young player,
5:14
Speaker 2: you know, early Rogers. Yeah, well, and I mean the
5:17
Speaker 2: interesting thing is because I mean he has honest like
5:20
Speaker 2: in that you're just watching him scratch the surface.
5:22
Speaker 5: I think I was gonna say, there's a little boyish
5:24
Speaker 5: wonder that that's a little bit different too, because Churio,
5:28
Speaker 5: you knew, was going to figure it out, but he
5:31
Speaker 5: didn't start out what nine straight no hit innings or like.
5:34
Speaker 2: That's the other thing.
5:36
Speaker 5: Buddy Tim used to always say, where when's our guy coming?
5:39
Speaker 5: When's the guy that just walks into the big leagues
5:41
Speaker 5: and is awesome? Because it does seem like there have
5:44
Speaker 5: been a number of different teams where you walk in
5:46
Speaker 5: and this guy is at this level of good at
5:49
Speaker 5: least a very productive big league player. Brownie would be
5:52
Speaker 5: the first one that I would think of. But that's
5:55
Speaker 5: now bordering on twenty years ago that you've had somebody
5:59
Speaker 5: walk in and instantly be one of the best players
6:02
Speaker 5: on your team and a position player there, right, So
6:04
Speaker 5: I thought about Brownie. I thought about the fielder Week's
6:06
Speaker 5: day when they both homered, when they first both came up.
6:08
Speaker 5: I think it was a Twins game was June, So yeah,
6:12
Speaker 5: that excitement of those position players, but for a starter.
6:15
Speaker 5: I mean, because you know, even Burn started in the
6:17
Speaker 5: bullpen and Woodrowe and those type of guys, so you know,
6:21
Speaker 5: Sheets is probably the best example. But in that sport
6:24
Speaker 5: for a pitcher, when he first came up and did it,
6:26
Speaker 5: I mean you remember cal Aldred ninety two, but it
6:29
Speaker 5: didn't sustain.
6:29
Speaker 6: It wasn't the power and the stuff that MS has.
6:33
Speaker 6: So yeah, Rogers, I guess when Brandon Jennings first took
6:37
Speaker 6: off early on in his career, we were excited about that.
6:41
Speaker 6: Jannis took a few years the reaches greatness, so it
6:43
Speaker 6: wasn't exactly the same. Uh, But we're seeing we're seeing
6:47
Speaker 6: possibly history right, It's super special what MS is doing.
6:50
Speaker 2: It is so just you know, amid the loss and
6:54
Speaker 2: the kick to the nads, I mean in the grand scheme,
6:56
Speaker 2: losing to a good club like the Padres on a
6:59
Speaker 2: WEDNESDA day night sucks for the moment, but you can
7:02
Speaker 2: move past it. But watching Miss is like you gotta take,
7:07
Speaker 2: you gotta take the bigger picture that you got to
7:09
Speaker 2: pull back a little bit.
7:11
Speaker 5: You can definitely enjoy that one. The the Erebay part though, Drew,
7:14
Speaker 5: when when you go down the laundry list, of things
7:15
Speaker 5: to focus on. I do almost wonder if if you
7:19
Speaker 5: get one, and then we'll start counting them, right, like
7:22
Speaker 5: do you get one blow up, one, one miss slip,
7:26
Speaker 5: and then we'll start really really keeping a keen eye
7:30
Speaker 5: on it, because it did feel like we were all
7:31
Speaker 5: so excited that he took that mantle. Uh, but it
7:35
Speaker 5: hasn't necessarily been absolute nails. Ever since he walked in there.
7:38
Speaker 5: He's been good, maybe not great though, and I've.
7:40
Speaker 2: Been I don't know. It's like your your your whole
7:43
Speaker 2: team revolves. The conference comes from the closer spot. And
7:47
Speaker 2: I gotta say, watching that game unfold, I'm thinking to myself,
7:50
Speaker 2: I might throw Ashby out there for another aning. He's filthy.
7:54
Speaker 2: He's really good, and it's like he pitched the eighth
7:56
Speaker 2: without problem, and then you're getting to the heart of
7:59
Speaker 2: the order in the ninth and I get it, like
8:01
Speaker 2: you want the closer, you want that, you know, it's
8:04
Speaker 2: like that. It's almost ceremonial in some ways. Nothing my
8:09
Speaker 2: thought was. And again I'm you know, you're playing backseat
8:12
Speaker 2: manager and anything you do is wrong if you give
8:14
Speaker 2: up the lead, for sure, So if you leave Ashby
8:17
Speaker 2: in there, what the hell.
8:18
Speaker 4: Are you doing, What are you doing?
8:21
Speaker 2: And so U Reba McGill had pitched the night before,
8:23
Speaker 2: and I was thinking to myself, well, if Ashby could
8:25
Speaker 2: nail this down, And I don't know if that was
8:27
Speaker 2: the plan. If mizz had pitched the eighth, would Ashby
8:29
Speaker 2: have just sat down because he was getting hot for
8:32
Speaker 2: a while?
8:32
Speaker 5: Say, was he he was getting hot in the seventh
8:34
Speaker 5: and then then had ready in the eighth?
8:36
Speaker 2: Right, he's getting uh, he could he was in line
8:38
Speaker 2: for potential dry docking to use the phrase that to
8:43
Speaker 2: use it derivative.
8:44
Speaker 5: Of of the phrase, but I like the phrase.
8:50
Speaker 2: Actually it rhymes with bump, but the dry bump. Yeah,
8:54
Speaker 2: when you warm up a couple of times and don't
8:55
Speaker 2: get into a game, you get hot, it's like an
8:57
Speaker 2: appearance because you you know you're and then you throw
9:01
Speaker 2: a bunch of pitches and you don't get in the game.
9:02
Speaker 5: It's it's and you get the full up and down experience.
9:04
Speaker 5: So it was like a multi inning appearance.
9:06
Speaker 2: You almost count that as an appearance in the game
9:08
Speaker 2: if you're a really because I don't know if Ashby
9:10
Speaker 2: was in that kind of zone. But I'm thinking to myself,
9:13
Speaker 2: all right, well then I got I got McGill and
9:16
Speaker 2: you Rebay, and they could have avoided Mason Miller, who
9:19
Speaker 2: is all just unreal also great, like he's he's doing
9:24
Speaker 2: what Miz does on the back end of the game,
9:26
Speaker 2: so you can second guess that. But then I'm thought, now,
9:28
Speaker 2: what's the point of that, Like you Rebay, you want
9:30
Speaker 2: someone to be the closer. You get him there, you
9:32
Speaker 2: worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow wins the thing, Murphs thing is
9:35
Speaker 2: always win tonight, and so I can't really quibble with it.
9:39
Speaker 2: Like I was thinking it, I'm like, oh, Ashby looks
9:41
Speaker 2: so good man. He had to be tempted to leave
9:43
Speaker 2: him out there, like roll him out there for another inn,
9:44
Speaker 2: at least let him pitch till somebody gets on maybe,
9:46
Speaker 2: or you.
9:47
Speaker 5: Got to be tempted to have that dude pitch all night, right, Like,
9:49
Speaker 5: I don't know that i'd ever want him not to night.
9:52
Speaker 5: He pitches every night, so I'd want him to pitch
9:53
Speaker 5: as much as possible. Top of the lineup coming up.
9:56
Speaker 5: I can't say that I would have not loved them
9:59
Speaker 5: trying to try him back out there, but I would
10:02
Speaker 5: have been in line, like you mentioned to Hey, why
10:05
Speaker 5: would you not have just done what I did, because
10:07
Speaker 5: it would have totally worked and we would not be
10:08
Speaker 5: in this situation right now with Tatis, Machado and Ur.
10:13
Speaker 5: There's just gonna be nights that it's clearly not your night.
10:15
Speaker 5: And whether or not that did tweak him out or
10:19
Speaker 5: just a sign of a little foreshadowing things to come. Man,
10:22
Speaker 5: you throw that first one at the backstop, it never
10:24
Speaker 5: feels good to me, like that's just one of those
10:26
Speaker 5: nights where I don't believe anything is going to potentially
10:29
Speaker 5: go your way. And it took a while and then
10:33
Speaker 5: it was a single, a walk and a homer and
10:36
Speaker 5: shout out sheets because he doesn't miss the mistake.
10:39
Speaker 2: But it's clearly a mistake, right, I mean, throws a
10:41
Speaker 2: bad pitch.
10:41
Speaker 5: He had eighteen pitches the night before, not too surprising,
10:45
Speaker 5: but for them to be in a spot where you're
10:48
Speaker 5: only counting on and giving yourself one run of cushion,
10:53
Speaker 5: that's the bigger one.
10:53
Speaker 2: To me.
10:54
Speaker 5: I would love to have more of a closer conversation
10:57
Speaker 5: because I think it's a better one and a more
10:59
Speaker 5: provocative one for the for the radio. But mean, you
11:02
Speaker 5: got to be able to put more runs on the
11:04
Speaker 5: board as our friend Paul Wagner would say, more points
11:07
Speaker 5: on the scoreboard when.
11:08
Speaker 2: You're one, when you're one of ten with runners in
11:10
Speaker 2: scoring position.
11:11
Speaker 6: Last night, Yeah, that would that would have totally yeah,
11:14
Speaker 6: I mean, that would have totally taken you out of
11:16
Speaker 6: your issue, even if you're your closer does have an
11:18
Speaker 6: issue with giving up a run, which is gonna happen sometimes. Right,
11:21
Speaker 6: that's just the reality. And you can't you can't win
11:24
Speaker 6: many games scoring one run. The Brewers almost did it
11:26
Speaker 6: last night, but that's not the way you can you know,
11:29
Speaker 6: you can live. So you have to find a way
11:31
Speaker 6: to get the offense going a little bit more, take
11:32
Speaker 6: advantage of opportunities so you can avoid those situations. But
11:35
Speaker 6: last night was the personification of the the Ashby problem.
11:38
Speaker 6: I mean, Murphy loves to push the Ashby button for
11:41
Speaker 6: that very reason, because he's so good and so reliable
11:44
Speaker 6: in those high leverage situations. So this, you know, we've
11:47
Speaker 6: talked about it earlier this week about you know, Ashby
11:49
Speaker 6: getting a lot of innings, and this is the this
11:51
Speaker 6: is the real life manifestation of this issue. It's like,
11:54
Speaker 6: you don't want him to know, you don't overuse him,
11:56
Speaker 6: but you want to use him because he's so important
11:58
Speaker 6: and those games you needed, you need outs and he
12:02
Speaker 6: gives them to you. So it creates it creates a problem,
12:06
Speaker 6: but it's a good problem in some ways. But you
12:08
Speaker 6: have to find a way to get more runs so
12:09
Speaker 6: you don't have high leverage all the time.
12:11
Speaker 2: And then the natural instinct when your team loses like
12:14
Speaker 2: that is to look for justification, look for reasons, looked
12:17
Speaker 2: for rationale, as Chris and load I does on the
12:20
Speaker 2: talking text on eight seven seven seven nine three, I
12:23
Speaker 2: like this one looks like miss is the pitcher this
12:25
Speaker 2: year that gets no run support. There's always one.
12:28
Speaker 5: There's always one that walks out there and never gets
12:31
Speaker 5: any loving it.
12:33
Speaker 2: And now that sounds great, But he just pitched Friday
12:36
Speaker 2: night and they scored six for him on against the Yankees. Yeah,
12:38
Speaker 2: and they six six the start before that, he started
12:44
Speaker 2: an opening day and they put up fourteen.
12:46
Speaker 6: Yeah, that seems an anecdotal recency buys I would say, yeah,
12:50
Speaker 6: missus starts the Brewers have scored fourteen eight h two
12:55
Speaker 6: seven three three, six six and one.
13:00
Speaker 2: So he's the guy that's not getting any runs. By
13:03
Speaker 2: my math, that's he's their averaging almost like six runs
13:06
Speaker 2: a game when he scores, now fourteen's an outlier when
13:08
Speaker 2: you have a small sam Yeah, but Chris, that's that's
13:12
Speaker 2: not a narrative that we can extrapolate. Yet we can't.
13:15
Speaker 2: We can't. We can't say that not all four sheets. Yeah, yeah,
13:18
Speaker 2: he's not that guy.
13:21
Speaker 5: So also also might might be a little tongue of sheet.
13:24
Speaker 5: But you also go in there when you're wanting one
13:25
Speaker 5: for ten with runners in scoring position, and he hadn't
13:27
Speaker 5: given up a run in in any of his May starts.
13:30
Speaker 5: So if you were thinking about getting you Potootomy Sportsbook
13:32
Speaker 5: ticket for cy Young award doesn't make much sense now
13:34
Speaker 5: because he's fourteen to one. He started the year at
13:37
Speaker 5: past forty to one. So this was the this was
13:39
Speaker 5: the time, and this.
13:40
Speaker 2: Was the situation to be able to go get him
13:42
Speaker 2: six hits and four walks in what is it eighteen
13:44
Speaker 2: and a third innings in May with uh by my math,
13:50
Speaker 2: twenty nine strikeouts.
13:52
Speaker 4: That's already built the numbers.
13:53
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just it, just it seems video he's
13:56
Speaker 2: got four double digit strikeouts starts so far this season.
14:01
Speaker 2: So missus special man and just enjoy him felt the
14:04
Speaker 2: same way watching a young Yiannis like this musty TV
14:07
Speaker 2: man just got to enjoy this.
14:08
Speaker 5: But I mean again, a young Yiannis was like gangly
14:11
Speaker 5: and not putting anything up, and you were waiting for
14:15
Speaker 5: for him to start getting starts, right, I mean, like
14:17
Speaker 5: this is this is a dude that walks in and
14:19
Speaker 5: but he went this first three starts without giving or
14:23
Speaker 5: two starts without giving up a hit until like the
14:24
Speaker 5: sixth inning. This one is almost deserves a little bit
14:28
Speaker 5: different catch and like Rogers is fun too. Rogers sat
14:32
Speaker 5: for three full years in that first year was nice.
14:35
Speaker 5: So he was a good quarterback, but he wasn't one
14:38
Speaker 5: of the top starting, starting guys in the league, right, Like, so,
14:41
Speaker 5: I mean that's a that's another bar that you're starting
14:43
Speaker 5: to climb when you walk in and you're I mean
14:47
Speaker 5: they put him in the All Star Game, uh a
14:50
Speaker 5: little early last year after five starts. But that kind
14:52
Speaker 5: of buzz has never I think been seen. I mean yeah,
14:55
Speaker 5: I mean I think did.
14:57
Speaker 6: Bron Homer his first game getting called up ripped one
14:59
Speaker 6: off the wall?
15:00
Speaker 4: Yeah, that might be the closest.
15:04
Speaker 6: But to then to keep up that performance and then
15:06
Speaker 6: to say, all right, you're just doing things most players
15:09
Speaker 6: have never done in terms of the power of the
15:11
Speaker 6: speed of the pitches and what he can do. Yeah,
15:14
Speaker 6: it's because Giannis was a curiosity an athletic guy.
15:17
Speaker 2: Ye would show you the thing like when he would
15:21
Speaker 2: two steps from half.
15:22
Speaker 6: Court moment moment, Yeah, I mean really, he didn't sustain it,
15:26
Speaker 6: but it was Jennings almost from the start was having
15:29
Speaker 6: that big rookie year and then the big crazy performances.
15:31
Speaker 6: But this might be, right, Billy, unlike something we've ever seen,
15:35
Speaker 6: and it's it's pretty cool to be able to witness
15:38
Speaker 6: that and to understand that in the moment.
15:39
Speaker 2: It is it is. It's cool to have a guy
15:42
Speaker 2: like that. Now, Brewers, they didn't win us the last
15:44
Speaker 2: two years. They haven't won a series against the Potters.
15:46
Speaker 2: The Swing and Friars are a good team. Swinging Friars
15:49
Speaker 2: last night in first place ahead of the Dodgers. So
15:52
Speaker 2: this is a good outfit. Now did it suck? They're
15:54
Speaker 2: down to their last strec Well, that's what good teams too.
15:55
Speaker 2: How many times have the Brewers done that to teams?
15:57
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, Man, what a great morning. Now
16:00
Speaker 2: I would have been if that was the Brewers come back.
16:01
Speaker 2: When oh that feels good. Yeah, no doubt. So they're
16:04
Speaker 2: feeling good in San Diego today. I was wondering about
16:06
Speaker 2: that too, because I talked to our pal mud Grant
16:08
Speaker 2: Mark Grant, the Powders TV analyst, one of the great
16:11
Speaker 2: guys in all in the world, not just in sports
16:14
Speaker 2: or baseball, but when in the world. Mudcat was He's
16:18
Speaker 2: just always fired up. He never has a bad day.
16:19
Speaker 2: He's han't it. He had a great time at the ballpark,
16:22
Speaker 2: loves coming to Milwaukee, and you know, the Friars are good,
16:25
Speaker 2: they're they're just that's a good outfit. And you know,
16:28
Speaker 2: something's never changed. Manny Machado still getting booed. A lot
16:30
Speaker 2: of people don't know why, but they just them from
16:34
Speaker 2: almost ten years ago. Is fun, dude, it's fun.
16:37
Speaker 5: It's fun when that play starts rocking and blowing, just
16:39
Speaker 5: trying to gas that through the bout of the batter's box.
16:41
Speaker 2: Oh, it's beautiful. Thanks. So they get down to that,
16:43
Speaker 2: and they've they've been a really good ninth inning team.
16:46
Speaker 2: They've their offense in the late innings is good. They've
16:48
Speaker 2: had They've got the back end of their bullpen is
16:51
Speaker 2: air tight, which is why you don't want to be
16:53
Speaker 2: trailing against them because it's a six inning game. If
16:55
Speaker 2: you don't, you know, so it's not it's it's like, yeah,
16:58
Speaker 2: that was a disappointing loss, but you know, I got
17:02
Speaker 2: some playoffs. You're gonna have some it was, You're gonna
17:04
Speaker 2: have some of those. So you know, Murphinus post games
17:07
Speaker 2: that you canna have a couple of those a year.
17:08
Speaker 2: You do and it sucks, but everybody goes through it.
17:12
Speaker 5: There's there's gonna be what like ten to fifteen games
17:14
Speaker 5: a year that are decided in that fashion, and you
17:16
Speaker 5: just hope that you're eight and seven right like you
17:18
Speaker 5: just told, maybe you're at five hundred or or a
17:21
Speaker 5: tick above it because the likelihood of you, uh we
17:25
Speaker 5: joke about it with teams in the NFL, if you're
17:27
Speaker 5: playing a lot of one score games, Drew means you're
17:30
Speaker 5: not really it not really exact team. You're gonna blow
17:33
Speaker 5: a lot of teams. Both of these two teams are
17:34
Speaker 5: gonna blow a lot of teams out. Look at with
17:36
Speaker 5: those offensives exactly, look at the run different. So that's
17:38
Speaker 5: what's gonna tell you, man, when you're talking about absolute gas.
17:41
Speaker 5: You started with miss and end it with Mason Miller.
17:44
Speaker 5: Uh that is ah, that is a Velocity fans dream.
17:47
Speaker 5: Last night, I imagine that pitching Ninja Cat was just
17:49
Speaker 5: sitting on his couch like the South Parking Ye, just
17:52
Speaker 5: all over the place.
17:53
Speaker 6: Now that he's locating and mixing his stuff up, it's
17:55
Speaker 6: just nasty, man.
17:56
Speaker 2: It's exactly Yeah your rebay through one hundred and two
18:00
Speaker 2: think his career. Yeah, he was throwing a Harras slider
18:03
Speaker 2: and they guy hit it out down to their last run.
18:05
Speaker 2: So yeah, tough loss. But again, now, Birs haven't won
18:09
Speaker 2: a series against Padres in two years, and I don't
18:11
Speaker 2: play them that often. I get but and if they
18:14
Speaker 2: do win today, it'd be a five and one home
18:17
Speaker 2: stand against New York and San Diego. I'm taking that.
18:20
Speaker 2: That'll play. That'll taking that. I mean, that's pretty good
18:23
Speaker 2: if you can, if you can rack that one up.
18:25
Speaker 2: So it would have been nice to get last night
18:27
Speaker 2: didn't happen. We'll continue to talk about that. We're gonna
18:29
Speaker 2: listen to a Hunter Bomb Guard's recap. Hunter joins US
18:31
Speaker 2: Live today at seven thirty. But we also have the
18:35
Speaker 2: NFL schedule. We got a little more sol yesterday. They
18:38
Speaker 2: threw us one, and for the first time in three years. Yeah, boys,
18:41
Speaker 2: here in the huddle, we'll be off on Thanksgiving and
18:43
Speaker 2: joining Thanksgiving with the families watching football on the couch
18:46
Speaker 2: as it was meant to be. Three years in a row,
18:49
Speaker 2: the Packers have played a Thanksgiving game two on the
18:52
Speaker 2: road and won at Lambeau and we get a respite
18:55
Speaker 2: from that, We get a break. Now we have to
18:58
Speaker 2: give up whiskey Wednesday, one of the best nights of
18:59
Speaker 2: the year to go out, but the Packers at the
19:02
Speaker 2: Rams the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. The NFL continues to act
19:06
Speaker 2: like a vampire squid and suck money out of every
19:09
Speaker 2: day and every couch cushion and everywhere they can find it.
19:13
Speaker 2: Wait to do it. We'll be working on that. We'll
19:16
Speaker 2: be working on that Wednesday. But that's better than the alternative.
19:19
Speaker 2: Thursday is going to be a nice day for us,
19:22
Speaker 2: which is gonna be excellent. So we're gonna wait for
19:24
Speaker 2: the schedule to come out and drips and drabs. I wish.
19:27
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm flashing back to that year, that match,
19:28
Speaker 2: and I haven't dropped the whole thing at six am
19:30
Speaker 2: and we had the whole day.
19:32
Speaker 5: Let's get let's get back in on it. Somebody steal
19:34
Speaker 5: that PDF.
19:35
Speaker 2: I know that. I know it's in email boxes all
19:38
Speaker 2: over the Somebody works in a printing shop and they
19:41
Speaker 2: already have it. Send that come. And that's another thing
19:45
Speaker 2: about Hunter is he likes to predict the schedule and
19:48
Speaker 2: stuff like that. Yeah, he likes to do that when
19:50
Speaker 2: it comes to playoff games in TV games. And this
19:52
Speaker 2: so another Hunter hobby we will explore. So when we
19:55
Speaker 2: come back, we'll here Hunters a recap from the bos Park.
19:58
Speaker 2: Take your thoughts about the Brewers out to Miss. Yeah,
20:01
Speaker 2: it sucked, but it was It's still exciting to see
20:03
Speaker 2: Mis go for seven and seven plus because he went
20:06
Speaker 2: out and warmed up before the eighth, So that was
20:08
Speaker 2: pretty epic to see. We're gonna have some fun today.
20:11
Speaker 2: It's schedule release day. It's The Huddle on Fox Sports
20:14
Speaker 2: Radio Wisconsin. Thursday edition of The Huddle. Schedule release Edition
20:21
Speaker 2: of The Huddle. Any leaks yet this morning, Billy, you're
20:23
Speaker 2: searching the X were on Facebook X and YouTube streaming.
20:26
Speaker 2: We're coming at you live on nine twenty Milwaukee, ten
20:29
Speaker 2: seventy Madison on these airwaves and interwets. We're talking about
20:32
Speaker 2: Miss's start obviously because it's as exciting as it gets,
20:37
Speaker 2: you know, one in a one run output by the
20:40
Speaker 2: burs a three to one loss. Oh good, seven scoreless
20:43
Speaker 2: for Miserawski retired the last fourteen batters he faced. He
20:46
Speaker 2: ended his night. Now, it wasn't supposed to end the
20:48
Speaker 2: when it did, but he just rapped up, cramped up
20:51
Speaker 2: coming out for the eighth. But he finishes night against
20:56
Speaker 2: Castianos Nick Castianos with pitch of one O two, one
21:01
Speaker 2: O two and one oh three.
21:03
Speaker 5: Man being able to grab back for that easy heat
21:06
Speaker 5: at the end of the game.
21:08
Speaker 2: That's remarkable stamina. No one has ever thrown forty nine
21:11
Speaker 2: pitches at one hundred miles an hour plus until Miz
21:15
Speaker 2: did it last night.
21:16
Speaker 5: It feels like nightly he's doing something like that. What
21:18
Speaker 5: was it the Yankee start? It was the most one
21:22
Speaker 5: hundred and three mile an hour pitches in an inning
21:25
Speaker 5: anybody had ever had. He's got he's got one of
21:27
Speaker 5: those per night. But I think the crazy thing of it,
21:30
Speaker 5: Drew is we had wondered, was there gonna be a
21:33
Speaker 5: point where he was touching, you know, one hundred one
21:36
Speaker 5: oh one, and that was gonna be where he lived
21:38
Speaker 5: No it appears that he's gonna live at like one
21:40
Speaker 5: oh two if you can do that in the seventh inning.
21:42
Speaker 2: Thing about last night was his slider was gross. That
21:47
Speaker 2: was on the point, and I mean he was throwing that
21:48
Speaker 2: for strikes and how do you and his slider comes
21:52
Speaker 2: in at ninety two ninety three and it breaks and
21:57
Speaker 2: you can't There's just it's impossible. You got to guess. Basically,
22:01
Speaker 2: you gotta sell out. I'm gonna get your part of
22:03
Speaker 2: guests and slider and if I'm wrong, I have no chance.
22:06
Speaker 4: Well that's next three. That's the next level of his dominance.
22:08
Speaker 6: I mean last year when he struggled, it was when
22:10
Speaker 6: he couldn't place it or he couldn't locate it.
22:12
Speaker 4: It was just all fastballs.
22:13
Speaker 6: So as fast as you go, eventually I can time
22:15
Speaker 6: it up and that whole thing. But when you can
22:17
Speaker 6: locate both, and when you can disguise both, that's what
22:20
Speaker 6: makes you totally unhittable.
22:21
Speaker 2: Who had the hit up the middle for them? Was
22:23
Speaker 2: it Sheets? I think it might have been Sheets. Was
22:25
Speaker 2: that his second hit of the I was going to say,
22:26
Speaker 2: I think I think it was two hit one up
22:28
Speaker 2: that came in at one o two, and went out
22:30
Speaker 2: at one o five and practically Charlie Brown Miss up
22:33
Speaker 2: the middle. Yeah, was knocked all his clothes off, But
22:36
Speaker 2: you don't see much great contact against Miss when he's
22:40
Speaker 2: dealing like that, So what he was doing was kind
22:43
Speaker 2: of unprecedented. In his last three starts, eighteen and a
22:46
Speaker 2: third scoreless innings, twenty nine punch outs, his era is
22:50
Speaker 2: two point one two and he's got nine games and
22:54
Speaker 2: eighty punch outs to lead the majors. He's on a
22:56
Speaker 2: cy young track right now, and having him having your
22:59
Speaker 2: best play be your number one starter doesn't happen very
23:03
Speaker 2: often in these parts. No, very much. Not true. No.
23:07
Speaker 2: It also Arman mentioned Sheets, Yeah, maybe maybe highera during
23:11
Speaker 2: the peak of his powers. This is their best best player,
23:15
Speaker 2: He's like Miss right now is like it's far and
23:17
Speaker 2: away their best player is their opening day starts.
23:20
Speaker 5: And it's also I also think it's a difference when
23:22
Speaker 5: you're the you know, the Pirates, all due respect to
23:24
Speaker 5: the Pirates, because I know that I know that they're
23:26
Speaker 5: they're battling and they think that they're in a different spot,
23:28
Speaker 5: or like the Sheets Brewers, where nobody was expecting a
23:32
Speaker 5: whole lot from you and you knew you were gonna
23:33
Speaker 5: have to have the one token All Star and like,
23:36
Speaker 5: oh sweet, there's the one game that we have to
23:37
Speaker 5: worry about, and then four other ones that will have
23:39
Speaker 5: a whole lot. But when your team is dominant, is
23:42
Speaker 5: really good and that guy is coming up every fifth day,
23:45
Speaker 5: that's that's next level. I had wondered in our wild
23:48
Speaker 5: ass predictions before the season. I predicted that he would
23:51
Speaker 5: come close to two hundred strikeouts. He might have two
23:55
Speaker 5: hundred strikeouts by the all could away, Like I was
24:00
Speaker 5: wondering if it was gonna be an innings issue. Drew
24:02
Speaker 5: of how many innings that he was gonna touch because
24:05
Speaker 5: of you know, how much they're gonna really ramp him up.
24:07
Speaker 5: Are they gonna have to tone him down later in
24:09
Speaker 5: the year. No, he's gonna blow past that number.
24:11
Speaker 2: It would appear to have twenty nine strikeouts and no
24:14
Speaker 2: runs allowed in a three game span. The only other
24:17
Speaker 2: Brewers pitcher to do that was Corbyn Burns in twenty
24:19
Speaker 2: twenty one. What did he do that year? Yeah?
24:22
Speaker 5: Won that bad boy won the cy Young Now gonna
24:24
Speaker 5: be a tough sy young to win because you have
24:27
Speaker 5: the flavor of the month and everybody's love of schemes.
24:30
Speaker 5: Oh Tani has been disgusting on the mound. The Tani
24:33
Speaker 5: can't hit, but man, he can pitch you. He is
24:36
Speaker 5: dealing so far. And you know the other one, skeletal
24:39
Speaker 5: remains a Chris Sale has been really, really good throughout
24:42
Speaker 5: the year. So it's not gonna be an easy one
24:44
Speaker 5: to win. He's gonna be in the conversation.
24:46
Speaker 2: And frankly, I think that's one of the most impressive
24:48
Speaker 2: things of we say it right out of the gates,
24:51
Speaker 2: your second year in and you're in the conversation for
24:54
Speaker 2: that award. Uh, there's only a few guys that have
24:56
Speaker 2: done it.
24:56
Speaker 5: And then also think he was committed at one particular
24:59
Speaker 5: point in to go pitch at LSU. That's right, him
25:02
Speaker 5: and Skeens would have been in the same rotation. What
25:05
Speaker 5: a disgusting combination that would have been. To walk up
25:08
Speaker 5: into crazy just to think about that in town the
25:11
Speaker 5: Tigers with Skeins and miserowskis all right, sweet, all right?
25:15
Speaker 2: You know what man? I got? I got this meeting
25:17
Speaker 2: on my academic advisor. I don't think I'm gonna be
25:19
Speaker 2: able to make it. I'm sorry, I don't know that's
25:21
Speaker 2: gonna happen, meanes is I mean Miss. His strikeout percentage
25:25
Speaker 2: this year is knocking on the door of forty percent,
25:29
Speaker 2: which is you know, for a closer you can see it.
25:32
Speaker 2: If you're Mason Miller, you gonna say that the one
25:34
Speaker 2: inning at a time, okay for numbers, but this is
25:37
Speaker 2: like who so yeah, we're uh, we're glazing miss today.
25:41
Speaker 2: But he deserves it.
25:42
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's fun and it's also it's also just cool
25:46
Speaker 5: to see Arman. You always say it with with like phonsie, Yes,
25:51
Speaker 5: that would be that would be miss right now. Even
25:52
Speaker 5: though he's the nerdy guy right like all right, he's
25:56
Speaker 5: strolling up out of the mounds six foot seven, lanky guys,
25:58
Speaker 5: and he's gonna gas you at one on three.
26:00
Speaker 6: He would be the nerdiest gang leaner of all time,
26:01
Speaker 6: but right now he is leading the gang. I mean,
26:03
Speaker 6: like you just have a special I would think a
26:05
Speaker 6: special set of confidence knowing that guy is going for
26:07
Speaker 6: you every fifth day, and when you're maybe a Sproder,
26:10
Speaker 6: a Kyle Harrison or some guys in that bullpen or
26:12
Speaker 6: even the offense, you're like, you know what, Okay, he's
26:15
Speaker 6: our deep breath guy.
26:16
Speaker 4: He's our streak stopper, He's all that stuff, So so.
26:19
Speaker 2: Miss last night. He's pitched twenty four big league games
26:22
Speaker 2: regular season A three three eight ERA, one hundred and
26:26
Speaker 2: seventeen innings and one hundred and sixty seven strikeouts. Now again,
26:32
Speaker 2: like twenty four that's that's roughly for most guys now
26:35
Speaker 2: in the load management era and stuff, that's almost a
26:37
Speaker 2: full season. But if you you can kind of you
26:40
Speaker 2: ballpark it with like thirty starts as a full season,
26:43
Speaker 2: like you know, Billy, to your point, he's way over
26:45
Speaker 2: two hundred strikeouts for if you give him this many
26:48
Speaker 2: for health.
26:50
Speaker 4: I mean, that's the main thing you maintain him.
26:52
Speaker 6: I mean some guys, you know, you coaches and things
26:54
Speaker 6: like that you worry about, like let's coach him to
26:56
Speaker 6: pitch well or pitch better.
26:57
Speaker 4: You don't have to worry about that with him.
26:59
Speaker 6: You just gotta makeinain him right now and make sure
27:01
Speaker 6: you're handling him the right way to give him the
27:02
Speaker 6: right amount of performance plus rest and keep him in
27:05
Speaker 6: opt that optimum thread.
27:07
Speaker 4: The needle kind of level.
27:08
Speaker 2: And I love the fact that Skeens is in the
27:10
Speaker 2: division so you can kind of measure them and like
27:13
Speaker 2: go on each other and see which one of them
27:16
Speaker 2: can knock on the door of striking out three hundred guys.
27:18
Speaker 5: It sure would be fun if it was the old
27:20
Speaker 5: schedule where you had eighteen or nineteen meetings between the
27:23
Speaker 5: two teams, because you knew that you would get a
27:26
Speaker 5: game like last year. And that's why I mean they
27:28
Speaker 5: sold it out on the blink of an eye. With
27:31
Speaker 5: the skiings start a year ago against Mansarowski, I imagine
27:34
Speaker 5: there's gonna.
27:35
Speaker 2: Be a lot more of those.
27:35
Speaker 5: And also Low and Behold, I like the fact that
27:37
Speaker 5: you can line it up right now and forecast that
27:39
Speaker 5: he's gonna be pitching in that series against the Cups.
27:41
Speaker 5: Because as much as last night's disappointing one thousand percent
27:45
Speaker 5: not trying to make everybody feel too much better, it
27:48
Speaker 5: was the night of the comeback. I mean, Dalton VARs show,
27:50
Speaker 5: Wisconsin's own it a walk off Granny for the Blue
27:52
Speaker 5: Jays after they came back from being down in the eighth,
27:56
Speaker 5: They tied it in the eighth, gave up two in
27:59
Speaker 5: the top of the tenth, and then scored four in
28:01
Speaker 5: the bottom half.
28:02
Speaker 2: The d Backs were up three.
28:05
Speaker 5: Nothing gave that thing all the way or the d
28:07
Speaker 5: Backs were down three nothing, up five to three, they
28:11
Speaker 5: had the Rangers down to their last strike two or
28:13
Speaker 5: three times. Rangers came back and won and let alone
28:15
Speaker 5: when we all saw in the playoffs last night, so
28:18
Speaker 5: it was it was a night in sports where if
28:21
Speaker 5: you had a lead, it was the worst position to
28:23
Speaker 5: be in, and it seemed like every game ended that way.
28:26
Speaker 5: And now all as well that n's well, Cubs lost
28:29
Speaker 5: last night, you lost last night, No ground lost, no
28:31
Speaker 5: ground loss, no issues. Still ayning up and hoping that
28:35
Speaker 5: you can make that series next week, that if you
28:37
Speaker 5: walk out of there with a three game sweeper, you
28:38
Speaker 5: end up taking control.
28:39
Speaker 4: That would be nice.
28:40
Speaker 6: Yeah, that was the one other bummer because four losses
28:43
Speaker 6: and runoff with the Cubs. So I was already kind of,
28:45
Speaker 6: you know, eyeing that cookie picking up a game on them.
28:48
Speaker 6: But yeah, that would be nice if you could walk
28:50
Speaker 6: in within striking distance and then just go dominate them,
28:53
Speaker 6: take that take a lead back.
28:54
Speaker 2: Yeah, eight seven seven seven.
28:58
Speaker 5: So you asked if we had any more schedule leaks,
29:01
Speaker 5: any other information regarding the Packers. We have a pretty
29:04
Speaker 5: good authority that they're going to be in week two
29:08
Speaker 5: going to the Metal Lands.
29:10
Speaker 2: And taking on the New York Jets for their home opener.
29:13
Speaker 5: That is the only other one that is kind of
29:15
Speaker 5: locked in with the Packers other than the Rams game
29:17
Speaker 5: on Thanksgiving Eve. Can be surmised because there was a
29:23
Speaker 5: statement from Minnesota writer that the Bears and Vikings. Ben
29:28
Speaker 5: Gesling had that Bears and Vikings are going to be
29:30
Speaker 5: Week eighteen. That would mean that the Packers would take
29:33
Speaker 5: on the Lions in Week eighteen. So three of the
29:36
Speaker 5: seventeen games for the Packers lined in everything else kind
29:39
Speaker 5: of on the board. We're at sixteen and a half
29:41
Speaker 5: percent on the grid. So we got two hundred and
29:43
Speaker 5: twenty seven games still remaining on to be able to
29:46
Speaker 5: figure out before we get the full two seventy two
29:49
Speaker 5: dialed in later on tonight. But some other good ones
29:51
Speaker 5: like Thanksgiving Night. You mentioned Drew that the Packers are
29:55
Speaker 5: going to kick off the largest Thanksgiving slate ever. Pretty
29:58
Speaker 5: good slate. Packers and Rams on Wednesday Night Bears Lions.
30:03
Speaker 5: The morning game or the noon game on Thanksgiving Turkey
30:06
Speaker 5: Day Dinner is Eagles and Cowboys, and then the nightcap
30:11
Speaker 5: is Chiefs visiting the Buffalo Bills in the new Stadium
30:15
Speaker 5: in the new Stadium Rocket that will play Friday Black
30:19
Speaker 5: Friday Broncos and Steelers. So I mean, until a certain
30:23
Speaker 5: number eight puts a pen to paper in Pittsburgh. Could
30:25
Speaker 5: that be him going back to Hinesfield and taking on
30:28
Speaker 5: his former team.
30:32
Speaker 2: I'm not saying.
30:32
Speaker 5: I'm not saying, just saying that would be a fascinating development.
30:36
Speaker 5: If the NFL schedule makers wanted to toss that little
30:39
Speaker 5: bad boy in there, that'd be a nice little cookie.
30:41
Speaker 2: So so far we know it looks like Packers Lions at
30:44
Speaker 2: a site TBA Week eighteen, Packers at Rams on the
30:48
Speaker 2: Whiskey Wednesday evening of Whiskey Wednesday, the Wednesday before Thanksgiving,
30:53
Speaker 2: and Packers at Jets September twentieth in the Meadowlands and
30:56
Speaker 2: the Tyrod Taylor homecoming.
30:58
Speaker 5: And we got a lot of home all. We got
31:00
Speaker 5: a lot of Week one games already on the dock.
31:02
Speaker 5: At the one Week one game that a lot of
31:05
Speaker 5: people south of this border were hoping for, they were excited.
31:08
Speaker 5: They thought that their team had made it to the
31:10
Speaker 5: point where they were supposed to open up the NFL
31:12
Speaker 5: season against the Super Bowl champion Chicago Bears will not
31:15
Speaker 5: be taking on the Seattle Seahawks in the opener of
31:19
Speaker 5: the NFL season.
31:20
Speaker 2: That will be a rematch of the Super Bowl. We
31:24
Speaker 2: didn't think into this mix, but they're gonna be promoting
31:27
Speaker 2: the hell out of that.
31:29
Speaker 3: Well.
31:29
Speaker 4: That's gonna be interesting, isn't it. That'll be a fun one.
31:32
Speaker 5: Yeah, oh juicy, and not wait for page six to
31:36
Speaker 5: be taking up spots in the NFL priss box on opening.
31:39
Speaker 2: That's a beautiful thing.
31:40
Speaker 4: It's also nice and old.
31:41
Speaker 6: Just one more time, like to Bears fans, you're still
31:43
Speaker 6: not that guy, all right, You're.
31:44
Speaker 2: Still not get the Carolina Panthers.
31:47
Speaker 4: You're still not that guy.
31:48
Speaker 2: It's not your turn. We have a smile on that one.
31:51
Speaker 2: What do you mean, Billy, it's it's Bryce against h
31:54
Speaker 2: know Cam, it's the it's the matchup of the trade.
31:59
Speaker 2: It's a fast one.
32:00
Speaker 5: It's also a great way for the Chicago Bears to
32:03
Speaker 5: get a dose a reality. Caroline Panthers go football team,
32:05
Speaker 5: very good, the Bold Division champions last year Packers got
32:09
Speaker 5: we got a little smack in the mouth by Carolina
32:12
Speaker 5: and then I like that as sending for the Panthers.
32:16
Speaker 2: And it will be interesting. That's one of the things.
32:18
Speaker 2: And you know this Packers Bears thing we're gonna be
32:22
Speaker 2: you know, we're in the cage, flinging banana peels and
32:25
Speaker 2: ccs at each other. Right, But the schedule does tell
32:30
Speaker 2: you at the outset what the league thinks of your team, Like,
32:33
Speaker 2: you know what Vegas thinks of your team because there's
32:35
Speaker 2: over unders in their stuff, you know, but the league
32:38
Speaker 2: where they put you. Can you make a case that
32:41
Speaker 2: playing the Wednesday before in a standalone game on Wednesday
32:43
Speaker 2: is like more prestigious than playing on Thanksgiving Day. I mean,
32:46
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving Day is a big ratings but this is the
32:48
Speaker 2: first time they've done that, and it's like your standalone
32:50
Speaker 2: Packers rams. They know that that's gonna get eyeball. They
32:53
Speaker 2: know that's going to get a huge number of Amazon
32:55
Speaker 2: game right.
32:55
Speaker 5: On Netflix, Netflix, and that one they want to make
32:58
Speaker 5: sure Netflix makes that money back that two hundred million there,
33:01
Speaker 5: so they gave them that.
33:02
Speaker 2: So where what marquee games? I mean, who gets more
33:06
Speaker 2: primetime games? I still think it's going to be the Packers.
33:08
Speaker 2: I would think it's the Packers. The Bears are are
33:11
Speaker 2: gonna be close.
33:12
Speaker 5: And I'll say this, I mean I would be surprised
33:14
Speaker 5: if both of the Bears Packers games aren't outlined for
33:16
Speaker 5: primetime right now? Yeah, sure, right one of them feels
33:19
Speaker 5: like it will absolutely be a Monday night or a
33:21
Speaker 5: Sunday night, and the other networks coming salty. They didn't
33:24
Speaker 5: get one, so I got a feeling it's got a
33:26
Speaker 5: chance to go to that one.
33:27
Speaker 2: And will the Packers play a Thursday going into the Wednesday?
33:30
Speaker 5: Yeah, And that's where my man scheduling NERD, NFL, NERD
33:34
Speaker 5: on on X is just like locked in the Packers
33:37
Speaker 5: and Rams for that buy the week before. I don't
33:40
Speaker 5: necessarily know that it will be for sure, pretty safe guess,
33:44
Speaker 5: but I would believe Drew, you're playing a Thursday either
33:48
Speaker 5: before it or after it, right like you're you're almost
33:50
Speaker 5: have to you're playing it and you're sandwiching and around
33:53
Speaker 5: somewhere in there. But for somebody that has not been
33:58
Speaker 5: able to has not really gone out on Whiskey Weds
34:00
Speaker 5: for the last couple, I'm excited like this is gonna
34:02
Speaker 5: that is that is one where I'm excited to be
34:04
Speaker 5: able to be belly up watching the Packers beat the
34:07
Speaker 5: breaks off of the Raining defending MVP.
34:09
Speaker 6: I would have been more devastated about that like ten
34:11
Speaker 6: to fifteen years ago. But I don't think you know,
34:14
Speaker 6: it wasn't happening for a while anyway for me. So
34:17
Speaker 6: how was your hit percentage on whiskey and stead very bad?
34:20
Speaker 6: You're not really that because that's when you're really just
34:22
Speaker 6: coinciding again with your your high school friends. You know,
34:25
Speaker 6: first of all, that wasn't the goal. And second of all,
34:27
Speaker 6: that was okay because it wasn't happening.
34:30
Speaker 4: What's she gonna do? I mean, what's she gonna do?
34:31
Speaker 6: She's got get up early to help with the turkey
34:33
Speaker 6: and help with the mashed potatoes even better, It's just
34:37
Speaker 6: it's just not happening. There's always a drop that point
34:39
Speaker 6: for everybody that night, well the responsible ones, and those
34:42
Speaker 6: usually the females.
34:43
Speaker 4: So it wasn't happening that night.
34:44
Speaker 6: So that was just more of a time to just
34:46
Speaker 6: forget that aspect of it. Tell stores with all the
34:50
Speaker 6: old friends, go to the bosh. I mean, you know
34:52
Speaker 6: that was there, you go, you know, that was the
34:54
Speaker 6: way to do it.
34:54
Speaker 2: I thought that was the time for the prom king
34:57
Speaker 2: himself at the top of the food chat. I thought
34:59
Speaker 2: that the first couple of years, it's seven seven, seven
35:02
Speaker 2: nine four one ninety seven to three gets it. He's
35:05
Speaker 2: You're welcome, He's back talking text line. It is the
35:08
Speaker 2: Thursday edition, schedule release edition, and we're basically a Brewers
35:12
Speaker 2: pregame show because they play the Padres today at a
35:14
Speaker 2: twelve forty first pitch?
35:15
Speaker 5: Is it you better believe it? Kyle Harrison on the bump.
35:18
Speaker 5: They win when Kyle Harrison's on the mound. Yep, yep,
35:20
Speaker 5: Let's get after it. You're in the huddle. Fox Sports
35:22
Speaker 5: Radio Wisconsin dominating a Thursday in the good Land. It's
35:30
Speaker 5: the huddle. Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin.
35:31
Speaker 2: Drew Wilson, Billy Schmid, armand Sarian and our friend Hunter Bombguart.
35:36
Speaker 2: Hunter Bombguart was at the Brewers. He covers the Brewers
35:38
Speaker 2: for us like nobody else. He has a little uh
35:41
Speaker 2: Milwaukee Baseball Tonight show this evening he'll be at the
35:45
Speaker 2: ballpark with the Brewers for the series finale against the
35:48
Speaker 2: Padres this afternoon, twelve forty first pitch, and Hunter has
35:52
Speaker 2: a recap of last evening's proceedings and the miz start
35:57
Speaker 2: brought to us by import Mind to take it away. Hunter,
36:01
Speaker 2: thanks guys.
36:01
Speaker 7: It was a gut wrenching loss last night for the Brewers,
36:03
Speaker 7: a three to one lost to the Padre snaps their
36:06
Speaker 7: five game winning streak and unfortunately, Gavin Sheets with a
36:08
Speaker 7: three run home run off Abner Uiba was the difference.
36:12
Speaker 1: But we can't.
36:12
Speaker 7: Forget about the job that Jacob Azarowski did seven shoutout innings.
36:16
Speaker 7: Didn't walk about her ten strikeouts. It was his fourth
36:18
Speaker 7: game with ten plus strikeouts this season, which leads the
36:21
Speaker 7: major leagues. And guess what, it's his fifth straight game
36:24
Speaker 7: with eight plus strikeouts. That ties the record for the
36:29
Speaker 7: second longest streak in franchise history with eight plus strikeouts.
36:33
Speaker 7: Ben Sheets did it twice in two thousand and four.
36:35
Speaker 7: Of the record seven straight games with eight plus strikeouts,
36:37
Speaker 7: and that was Corman Burns back in twenty twenty one.
36:39
Speaker 7: But Jacob Azarowski said he didn't even feel like he
36:43
Speaker 7: had his best stuff working for him last night.
36:45
Speaker 8: I honestly did it feel like I had my best stuff,
36:47
Speaker 8: Like I thought, I was straying those first few innings.
36:49
Speaker 8: And what helped a lot was the guys that were there.
36:52
Speaker 8: They were swinging, and you know, they were putting balls
36:55
Speaker 8: in play and some were falling. But you know, that's
36:58
Speaker 8: probably the biggest of it all now.
37:01
Speaker 7: The good news Bruis manager Pat Murphy and Jacobzowski both
37:04
Speaker 7: not very concerned about the cramp that he felt when
37:06
Speaker 7: he tried to throw a warm up pitch to go
37:08
Speaker 7: out and pitch the eighth inning. Both were not concerned.
37:11
Speaker 7: Shouldn't be an issue, but it is to note that
37:15
Speaker 7: he's dealt with cramps in two of his last three starts.
37:18
Speaker 7: Brews will go for the series win today. Kyle Harrison
37:21
Speaker 7: on the mound twelve forty first pitch and I'll have
37:23
Speaker 7: you for Milwaukee Baseball tonight from six until seven this
37:26
Speaker 7: evening on Fox Sports nine twenty in Milwaukee. This report
37:28
Speaker 7: brought to you by import Minded your Trusted Joyce for
37:30
Speaker 7: Exceptional Vehicle Care on South twenty seventh, just north of
37:33
Speaker 7: eight ninety four.
37:34
Speaker 2: Back to you guys, Thank you handsome Hunter. He'll be
37:37
Speaker 2: joining us at seven p thirty.
37:39
Speaker 5: I loved Hunter grabbing and finding that stat. It looked
37:41
Speaker 5: like he was trying to run away from me. Granton
37:44
Speaker 5: right back.
37:44
Speaker 2: You're not gonna say for me, don't you move.
37:47
Speaker 4: Lasso and bring that thing back in there?
37:49
Speaker 6: That was That was great and great for him and
37:51
Speaker 6: Spencer because he didn't have to take it again, which
37:54
Speaker 6: is always one take Hunter. I'm sure, you know, because
37:56
Speaker 6: if he missed that, he probably would have had a
37:57
Speaker 6: retayit all that, but you know Hunter can with one take.
38:00
Speaker 6: And I love the quarter zip for Hunter last night
38:03
Speaker 6: rocking that quarter zip, you know, looking good, looking good,
38:06
Speaker 6: And I love Miz just casually saying it wasn't even
38:08
Speaker 6: my best stuff.
38:09
Speaker 4: I mean, how how G is that?
38:11
Speaker 2: Like?
38:11
Speaker 4: I didn't even pitch that well last night. I can
38:13
Speaker 4: do a lot better than that. I just got you know,
38:15
Speaker 4: they kept swinging that stuff, so it was fine. It
38:17
Speaker 4: worked out.
38:18
Speaker 8: Man.
38:18
Speaker 5: The only person I would like to hear how G
38:21
Speaker 5: is that?
38:22
Speaker 3: Here?
38:22
Speaker 2: More than is here Jacob Zarowski saying that I think
38:26
Speaker 2: I would like.
38:27
Speaker 5: I think I would like I think I'd like to
38:28
Speaker 5: hear both that you guys go back and forth with
38:30
Speaker 5: different slogan.
38:31
Speaker 2: Yeah. The other starter Michael King, not the Milwaukee Wave
38:37
Speaker 2: venerable legend forward Michael King. Uh was pretty good for
38:41
Speaker 2: the podres too solid, you know, and that game was
38:44
Speaker 2: That game wasn't quick. We had the couple of reviews
38:47
Speaker 2: we had. The first three innings took an hour. The
38:50
Speaker 2: entire game took two and a half or two thirty seven,
38:53
Speaker 2: a longer game for nothing happening. Yeah, right, like a
38:57
Speaker 2: longer game went on. It was trending to about a
39:01
Speaker 2: two hour and seventeen until you rebay step.
39:03
Speaker 5: Uh yeah, yeah I would Uh. I will say I
39:07
Speaker 5: was unfamiliar with Michael King's full game. Is he doing
39:11
Speaker 5: like a full goblet squat before he throws the.
39:14
Speaker 2: Does he does that squat and then he throws across
39:16
Speaker 2: his body? He's got a weird like uh, his squat
39:19
Speaker 2: delivery weird to pick up that.
39:21
Speaker 5: And his one hundred squats a night basically that you're
39:24
Speaker 5: doing on average.
39:26
Speaker 2: Did you see? And this is something we got to
39:28
Speaker 2: talk to Wags about because miss has the big stride
39:31
Speaker 2: because he's tall, and you see where he plants in
39:34
Speaker 2: the hole that he creates, you know, pictures in the
39:38
Speaker 2: and so pictures like it. If you're a right handed pitcher,
39:40
Speaker 2: if you're on one side of rubber, you like it
39:41
Speaker 2: when the other guy's on the other side and he's
39:43
Speaker 2: not stepping into your hole and it's a clear path,
39:45
Speaker 2: it's a clear Yeah. And you could see the two
39:48
Speaker 2: distinct and they were like, you know, far apart from
39:51
Speaker 2: each other, a half different where the King was landing,
39:53
Speaker 2: but he also throws across his body and he has
39:55
Speaker 2: a kind of a weird goofy delivery, whereas miss is
39:59
Speaker 2: like more I would say, conventional. Yeah, Now there's all
40:02
Speaker 2: kinds of pitching sluice out there. And this is so
40:04
Speaker 2: funny because it's a little bit like the geeks who
40:06
Speaker 2: watch you know, offensive line tape, you know, shout out
40:10
Speaker 2: to REGs and our draftnicks. I'm watching his feet and yeah,
40:13
Speaker 2: I watched him play against you know, Akron on a
40:15
Speaker 2: Wednesday night and maction, and I don't know if that
40:17
Speaker 2: guy's gonna be able to play. And like there's a
40:19
Speaker 2: lot of people saying, like, you know, missus delivery means
40:21
Speaker 2: he's gonna get injured. Like that's a bold proclamation predicting
40:24
Speaker 2: that a major league picture is gonna get injured.
40:26
Speaker 5: Wow, way to go out on a limb there, there's
40:28
Speaker 5: people doing that. But I watched miss and he seems compact.
40:33
Speaker 5: It seems like effortless. Could he could he put on
40:37
Speaker 5: some bulk and would it help him? Maybe that's not maybe, Yeah,
40:40
Speaker 5: I mean the leg cramping thing. We'll just drink more gatorad,
40:43
Speaker 5: eat more bananas.
40:43
Speaker 2: I don't know whatever they have to do without.
40:46
Speaker 4: That's just part of having supreme avuenticism.
40:48
Speaker 2: Right, we need to have it.
40:49
Speaker 5: We need to have a travel ball mom though on
40:50
Speaker 5: the team, because she's going to make sure that he
40:52
Speaker 5: has as much gatorading bananas as possible.
40:54
Speaker 2: Is a good chance that, I mean all pictures basically
40:57
Speaker 2: had hurt. It's everybody. And that's the thing is because
41:02
Speaker 2: he's such a freak, is this biologically sustainable that he
41:05
Speaker 2: can do this for a long time, for a career,
41:07
Speaker 2: for a season. Can he throw at this because we've
41:10
Speaker 2: never seen it. We've never seen guys throwing one O
41:12
Speaker 2: three into the seventh inning. It just doesn't happen. And
41:15
Speaker 2: so he's the outlier for sure, But that doesn't mean
41:18
Speaker 2: it's not sustainable. And people who projecting injuries, I think
41:22
Speaker 2: they just want to be e or they want to
41:24
Speaker 2: be armansarian. Yeah, a fan who's like bracing for the worst.
41:27
Speaker 5: It's also drew the same guys that say, well, Lamar
41:29
Speaker 5: Jackson's not gonna work because he's gonna get hurt.
41:32
Speaker 2: Okay, sure, but they all do.
41:34
Speaker 5: Then he also has won two MVPs, right, like, so
41:37
Speaker 5: how long it takes for that breakdown to go.
41:39
Speaker 2: Chris Sales another great one. He's a long, lanky guy.
41:42
Speaker 5: He's thirty seven years old, right in the middle of
41:44
Speaker 5: the side, young Cannacy, and I think he's had at
41:46
Speaker 5: least one Tommy John surgery right like, so, I mean,
41:48
Speaker 5: like everybody's gonna have that blit.
41:50
Speaker 2: But de Gram and other hard throwers, Yeah, that's pictures
41:54
Speaker 2: in general.
41:55
Speaker 5: Pictures in general. The other thing is, and we'll see
41:57
Speaker 5: it with Harrison here today.
41:59
Speaker 2: I think the.
41:59
Speaker 5: Brewers have been more diligent on do what the most
42:04
Speaker 5: natural throwing motion of what your body is, as much
42:07
Speaker 5: as we've tried to put limits on guys early on,
42:10
Speaker 5: and the growth and development, how you're developing these pictures
42:13
Speaker 5: and what you're forcing their arm to do, how they
42:16
