Aaron Judge's wake-up call, Phillies rock Skenes, Soto v. Lindor? Rooker’s season over, No ASG for Miz? · Foul Territory

• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Trips here. What's up Rush Striplin and guys Eric Kratz,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Scottie Brown here. I always like to do something fun
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: before we start. Strip I'm sure you've been part of
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: plenty of blowouts where you're either on the winning side
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: or the losing side. We're not gonna spend ten minutes
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: talking about what the Cubs did yesterday, but twenty three
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: three after that one, I'm more interested in the losing side.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Right if you're the Padres after that, and you just
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: gave Dansby Swanson like the amount of stats you would
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: appreciate in a month in one game, what are you
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: guys saying in the clubhouse?
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Flush it? Man?
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: It's like in the same vein as a no hitter.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: It's like law of averages. Tomorrow's gonna be back to
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: normal or even more in our favor. You just you
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: just literally forget. It's one of one sixty two who
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: cares onto the next?
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: Put the music on, Yeah.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: That's it. Just put the music on. You don't say anything. Kratz,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: do you digs?
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: What are you gonna say? What are you gonna say?
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: Like, let's get Dansby out tomorrow, Like, let's just throw one, right,
• 1:10
  Speaker 5: down the middle, like there's nothing else you can say.
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: You put the music on, pat each other on the back,
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: have a meal, don't look at your stats. If you're
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: a pitcher for like three weeks and then you go
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: out and you play the next game.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, honestly, Scott, it would probably be shocking how little
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: of a deal it is to fans and to anyone.
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: It would be like as you're walking through the tunnel,
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: someone would scream, fitt, who cares?
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: Onto the next and then it's business as usual.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: Everyone goes and changes and showers and gets their dinner
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: like any other night, and it's it's just onto the
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: next man. It's not like some big thing that you
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: have to deliberate and dwell on.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: It just you move right along.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Even in the playoffs, I think people would be surprised,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: right like, you lost. If you lose by ten, you
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: lost by ten. It doesn't really matter. How much does
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: it affect the series? Usually not much. I mean you
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: look at the bullpen usage and all that. But people
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: being like, oh, such a devastating loss to get just
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: get bludgeoned. And usually I mean you guys can probably
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: both speak to this. It's actually good, right you lose
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: that seven six nail bier. You guys felt like you
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: used everything you had in terms of the pen and
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: everything else versus all right, you got blown away in
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: this one.
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: If you're the catcher, you're you're in there ice in
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: your fingers. Rarely was I game where I was catching
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: and then I had to go into pitch because we
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: got blown out. It was usually I wasn't playing and
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: I went into pitch, But you always had to tell
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: the catcher like bad fingers. Today, I guess they had
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: to change the batteries in the pitch calm now since yeah,
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: no more fingers.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that joke is gonna die with time Cratzy, that
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: joke's not going to live on forever.
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: Man, gotta be something, gotta be something like bad I
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: don't know, like some kind of video game reference with like, well,
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: when I used to play video games, it was so
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: what I pushed in Why didn't throw out the third
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: instead of the first?
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: Like? What is glitch?
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: Man?
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: The thing was glitching? Yeah, it's glitch glitching.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes, my pitch com was glitching. Bro.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Well, it's at least good news for Cubs fans that
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: have been through the emotional rollercoaster and Dancy Swanson from
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: a nine hitter, the damage that he's done for a
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: few weeks. Crazy, All right, let's charge.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Let's charge about Kratz.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: You played with a young Aaron Judge. What do you
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: have on a guy who is clearly one of the
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: most valuable in the sport, right, best hitter in the
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: sport for a while? Now he's out and it doesn't
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: sound like he'll be back for a minute. Right, They're
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: weeks away from reimaging, so the best he can do
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: is watch and try and impact the team behind the scenes.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: And he actually spoke out. He doesn't do this much,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: but spoke out before Wednesday afternoon's game, which ended up
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: being another loss to the Tigers, and it ended up
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: being seven losses in a row now for the Yankees.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: He said, well, it's not great. Little lack of focus.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: We got to dial it in that that's the key part.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of you know, we gotta win and
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: blah blah blah. But going on later, he said that
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: that should motivate you every single day step on the field,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: no matter what happens. We've got an important sign when
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: you walk out on the field. It's the last time
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: you see before you're out there. It says, do your job.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Guys are here to do their job. And he mentioned
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: he's talked with unidentified players about the matter and said
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: the club will be speaking quote with a bigger group
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: here soon. And then he was asked what he meant
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: by not liking the lack of focus from teammates. He
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: didn't want to get into specifics.
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: To clarify what you say. You said that should motivate
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: you every single day when you step on the field.
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: What he was talking about was winning a World Series,
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: and that is one Aaron judges focus. Some people will
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: be like, well, you know he was holding the Yankees
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: over the coals for a few extra million dollars. No,
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: one hundred percent, his focus is to win a World Series.
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: Whether it's his legacy, whether it you know, to me
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: knowing him as a person, that is one hundred percent
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: his goal. And I have never played with and I'm
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: asked this all the time.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: As much as I'm.
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: Impressed with physically what he can do, his leadership skills
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: from his rookie year to three years later when I
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: played with him again, to any interactions I've had with him,
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: his leadership skills are second to none. He commands a
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: room like nobody else. So for him to say this
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: they're gonna listen doesn't mean everyone's gonna turn it around.
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: Doesn't mean Jazz isn't gonna take you know, Candy out
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: to the field. It doesn't mean that you know, Volpi's
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: gonna not watch a ball into the glove, that Devall's
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: not gonna walk the bases loaded.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: That's not what it means.
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: It just means when this man speaks, people and your
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: team listen.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think just to harp on that cratsy like
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: I'm not.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: I don't know Aaron Judge, you know, but I've been
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: in the locker room and now a fan of the
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: game from afar. When a leader that I played with,
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: such as a Kershaw, justin Turner down the line speaks
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: up the way that Aaron Judge just did it resonates man,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: and he did it the right way.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: I thought it was perfect.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: I thought that the captain of the New York Yankees
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: handled that perfectly. He addressed the situation saying this is
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: gonna get handled behind closed doors by me, because that's
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: my job, even though I'm not on the field.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: Right now.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: I can still do that job. And I didn't single
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: out any of my teammates. I didn't throw anyone under
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: the bus. But trust me, I'm aware of what's going on,
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: and I know who you're talking about, and I see
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: it too, and it's gonna be okay because I'm here
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: and this is what I do, and I'm Aaron Judge
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: and soon I'll be back between the lines. And I
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: thought it was perfect, man, I really I don't think
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: he could have done it any better.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Let's look at some matchups for a few minutes while
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: we wait for the TV crowd to return. Seek cooking
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: us up with a little preview. Kratz always shakes his
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: head strip as I read some matchups that you should
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: buy tickets to. So ek, do you have a particular
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: game on your mind for either Thursday night or the
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: weekend slate? You can get ahead of things so people
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: can buy their tickets a little bit sooner than last minute.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: What are you looking at?
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: I'm going off the matchup train and I'm looking ahead
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: because Junior camon Aro this weekend is going to break
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: Don Mattingly and Ken Griffy Junior's record of home runs
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: per game so I'm found Junior Camonaro all around. If
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: they have a rain out, I'm buying a ticket the
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: next day. If it's a day game, some hot hot
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: game in Kansas City, I don't know. I don't know
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: if maybe I'll get some into shade, but Seki can
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: let me know where the shade is for a day
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: game if they're playing a day game.
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: So I need to see that record.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Wow, And that's not an easy park to continue the
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: record with. Like if you've got the street going like
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: he does right now, Homers in six straight games, you're
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: trying to find a better ballpark than Kansas City.
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: On the matter, they move the fences in Strip. This
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: is great for you pitchers. They move the fence, doesn't matter.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: The way that he's hitting the ball.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: It doesn't make exactly when yesterday got out by forty
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: five feet.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's easy.
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: It doesn't matter the park. He could go Dead Center
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: and Polo Grounds right now.
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: That is not to get off our seat geeks stuff,
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: but that talking about Junior Kimmanario. He is got that
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: type of power that it's not just wall scrapers, it
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: is moonshots.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Do you think he does it?
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: Yes, that's why I'm getting tickets to it because I
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: want to see.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: How we're we pictures.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: We're too fickle, man, We'll just hit them and pitch
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: around him and walk them. We're too wimpy. I'll throw
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: us under the bus. Yeah, I'm just saying it's it's
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: gonna have to work out perfect with Like he's gonna
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: have to be up a lot with like two outs,
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: nobody on to start getting some pitches to hit. That's
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: what I'm guessing's gonna happen.
• 8:39
  Speaker 5: But I thought I thought it was gonna happen because
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: Kansas City's bigger. And what do you do in Kansas
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: City in Texas? Now you attack? You let him hit it.
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: And I just think he's on a heater right now
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: that he does it.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: Hey, I hope man, what an awesome story. Freaking go
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: do it.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Yes, I hope so too. I just think when when
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: we get to the actual record breaking time. Yeah, no
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: picture wants to be part of it. And all you
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: have to do is get buy a game or two.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: It's not like a home run record where every night
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: you could be the guy right like you could end
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: it in a day. But we'll see. I mean, I
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: want the glass half full, even though I just shot
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: it down. If you want to follow Junior camerinhero Territory
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: ten ten percent off MLB tickets on Sea Geek, you
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: can also put that in and then hold it in
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: your account so that you can use it later.
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: Strip you ever play with anybody like that that can
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: be on the aisle, speak up and command that much
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: of a presence.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: It's kershaw Man, Yeah, one hundred percent. It's kershaw because
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: he's kind of in that vein of Aaron Judge and
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: maybe even like a Mike trout right where there they
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: handled their business on the field and they're they're not
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: outspoken a lot, and when they are, it hits home.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: And I think, you know, the few times that I
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: remember Clayton speaking up on maybe losing streaks or you know,
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: bad play on the field from the Dodgers at the time,
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: when he did that, it was felt through the twenty
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: six guys in the locker room and probably on up
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: to the top sweets as well, you know, because it
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: just doesn't happen very often, so when you see it,
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: it hits home.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: So I would say Kershall is the one that comes
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: to mind.
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: I mean, the Yankees it doesn't take doesn't take a
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: rocket science when rocket scientist when you're losing to see
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: that things aren't going well and everybody looks lackluster when
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: you're losing. To me, I think what Judge is talking
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: about are the specifics that help a team win games.
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: I think Judge understands because he's made airs that airs
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: are not necessarily what makes your team lose games or
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: look like there's a lack of focus. But it's the
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: it's the fact that how you make the airs last
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: night specific through a ball home. Did we have a
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: chance at getting me out of the plate. Maybe, But
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: again it's Cabaliro playing out of position, trying to make
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: a play, and I thought he got the ball out
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: of his glove really well. Ali Sanchez came into the game.
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: Ali Sanchez is a backup catcher, So those those two
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: guys not faulting for this play. The throw was a
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: little high, Vulpi didn't watch the ball into the glove.
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: I think when you have Aaron Judge and it's not
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: just that specific play, I think it's a culmination of
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: other plays. And Rosario made an air that was that
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: was a you know, ball between his legs on a
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: rocket shot that cost Cam Schlitzler in Boston a game.
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: To me, when you're looking at it as Aaron Judge,
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: you're looking at what is the effort preplay, what is
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: the thought process pre play to everything that's going on.
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: I don't think he's sitting there going, oh, wow, we
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: should have ran out the ball better. We should have
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: been you know, we should have thrown the ball harder.
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: That's not what he's talking about. He is talking about
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: how do we get to the park and have a
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: singular focus like I do Aaron Judge every single day
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: to win the win the World Series at the end
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: of the season.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're onto something there, Kratzy, Like, there's difference in
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: good airrors and bad errors that you know, you can
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: you can make an error out of hustle, and then
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: there's also a difference in how you react to it
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: at the end, Right, I made a bad play? Am
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: I telling them, you know, throwing the ball back to
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: the pitcher, Hey, get me another ground ball? Right here,
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna turn to or am I going back and
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: pouting and you know in my fields and or even
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: maybe showing someone up in a way, you know, and
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: I'm not pointing anyone out from the Yankees. I haven't
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: even seen a lot of these plays. You can just
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: tell from from the losing streak and now from Aaron
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: Judge having to address it. There's some sloppiness going on
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: in the field between the lines for the New York Yankees,
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: and Aaron Judge felt the need to address it so
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: much so that he's not liking what he sees after
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: these plays.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Right, it is.
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: Okay to make bad plays, man, one hundred and six
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: to two games. You're gonna make airs, You're gonna you're
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: gonna make mistakes. But how do you come back from those?
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: And obviously Judge is not liking what he sees in
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: that regard.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: Well, strip you were on some of those Dodger teams
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: that had a lot of hockey shift action going on.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Remember there'd be a lot of platooning. Some of the
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: guys got pissed about it. They would say little hints
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: to media, but wouldn't go all out blast. So I'm
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: just curious. This isn't an extreme case with the Yankees,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: but we've gone over Caballiro, one of the best defensive
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: shortstops this year. Then they start bouncing him around right.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: And I know also yesterday's one game is not a
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: good example. Apparently guys are battling food poisoning. Like you
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: don't know everything going on behind the scenes, but can
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: you speak to how things changed for the Dodger organization
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: when they started finding guys that they could plug in
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: every single day? Do you need that for every spot? No,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: not necessarily, But I just felt like there was this
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: point where you were among some teams that were really good,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: or among some teammates that were really good that were
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: then sitting, and there was frustration boiling about that in
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: terms of development and getting in a flow. So how
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: much did things change when they were able to figure
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: out more consistency there.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: Well, I would say things changed for those guys personally, right,
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: But the Dodgers teams that I was on, even when
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: guys are getting platoons, we're still off successful. You know,
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: early on there were guys like Cody Bellinger and Jock
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: Peterson and some really good names getting platooned, you know,
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: not facing left handed hitters, and Bellinger would go on
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: to win an MVP, I would say when he stopped
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: getting platooned, So you know, some things really really switched
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: for those guys internally and especially mentally, where it's like
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: a Key k Hernandez for instance, would not get to
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: play against Righty's. He would go hit three home runs
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: against Madison Bumgardner and then not play the next day
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: against Logan Web And You're just like the guys hot,
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: leave them in there, you know. So that's where you
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: would start to say, like, when are the coaches or
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: the front office going to find some feel right, You're
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: going to say, when are they going to you know,
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: rely on the hot hand to think of like a
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: running back in the NFL, guys get all frustrated and
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: fantasy football, it's like the guys hot leave them out there.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: So I just think that it comes down to those
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: those guys were finally they were given an opportunity. They
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: had success. Now they wanted more, and the Dodgers guys
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: from the front office came down and said, yes, we're
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: going to give you this runway to fail. Chris Taylor's
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: Key Hernandez, Jock Peterson's of the world. And now those
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: guys are still playing and I'm sitting here talking about them,
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: you know. So it really just came down to they
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: they got the opportunity they deserved and then they ran
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: with it and the team had success because.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: Of it, and those guys individually as well.
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: I think there's also a spot maybe Aaron Judge, maybe
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: it came to a head yesterday, but if you look
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: at the lineup from yesterday, you had a lot of
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: young guys in key spots for the Yankees that normally
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: if Aaron's out on the field, if Judge he's out
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: on the field, maybe he can be that leader out
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: in the field. And he felt like he needed to
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: say this. I mean, you had in the same game,
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: you had Bellinger, you had Volpi had, you had Ali Sanchez,
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: you had cabi Ira playing out of position, and you
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: had as well as Carbrera, So you had a young
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: You had also Dominias Jason Dominga, so you had a
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: young lineup out there. That maybe it was just his
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: chance to kind of re iterate what we are actually
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: doing here and not just trying to stay in the
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: big leagues for these guys, but we're trying to win
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: a world serious So there's a different level of expectation
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: that he expects from his teammates.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Yep, and you know this team's going to add to
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: the trade deadline. You know they're hopefully going to get
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: judged back at some point, So how much can they
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: weather the storm to make sure that they're not, you know,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: completely falling apart. They should have the pitching to be
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: able to weather the storm. Might have cost them a division,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: maybe Kratz, they might not win the division, but it's
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: hard to see this team not making the playoffs, especially
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: in such a crappy American league. It's one of the
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: worst years ever for the American League.
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: They're good in that sense, but you know, are they
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: going to add? I say it all the time, like
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: Cashman doesn't try to make the big splashes at the
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: trade deadline. He is expected to, and yet for three
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: decades he continues to take his team to the playoffs.
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: So maybe his route is usually pretty good. Like they add,
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: they add very advantageously, Like it's not a who's the
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: best player?
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: Tyrek school will got it? Why because we're the Yankees.
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: That's not how they That's not how their team is
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: built to win. The way they're constructed right now, with
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: a few extra little pieces built here and there.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Or started Paul Skeen's career seven earned runs, that's a
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: new career high Philly has gotten to him a couple
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: times this season, and Crats, I mean, it's crazy to
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: say it, but if the Pirates were just going five
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: hundred lately on Paul skeen starts, they'd be in a
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: wild guard spot.
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: I think it's crazy that it's the same exact story.
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: They're scoring runs for Paul now and he's letting more
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: runs up.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Look, he's fine. I wouldn't say he's fine.
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: I think there's something nagging him, and I think he's
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: trying to pitch through it ever since the start, before
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: the Phillies start. Think during this whole streak of not
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: winning games for his start, I think there's something because
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: the v low's down a little bit, his pitches aren't
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: his crisp. But it is sucks for the Pirates because
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: they are trying this year in a pirate way.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, agreed.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: I mean I don't know, Yeah, I don't have anything
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: like extra that I see the on Cratzy there. You know,
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: it's like you see the man work before. He's got
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: like a Trevor Bauer esque pregame routine. Right, he's in
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: the lab trying to fix whatever's going on. I can
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: promise you that, I mean, Pitching Ninja kind of diagnose
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: some stuff that he sees. I guarantee you Paul Skeins
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: is aware of those things just from you know, watching
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: and listening to how he goes about his business. So
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: he's trying to fix it. Pirates are trying to fix it.
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to bet against him. He'll get it
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: figured out here soon.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Do you see the pictures there here? They are
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: from Pitching Ninja. What is this ross?
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Oh man, it's not much, you know.
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: It's the ball is out a little late there on
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: the right, you know, as simple as that. He's pointing
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: right to it, like get the ball out of your
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: glove a little bit earlier.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: It easy for me to stay from here. Maybe good
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: things will happen.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: People dehydration sucks. Quint's electrolyte stick packs to the rescue.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: I order them, I use them all of the time.

• 20:23
  Speaker 3: Talking to him on no will I don't know.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Help us out here. Kratz Zach Wheeler was pissed at
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: Don Maddingly for getting taken out. Just shy have five innings,
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: which actually broke up a streak. He had fifty three
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: consecutive regular season starts with at least five innings pitch
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: and guess what he knew about it.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: That's just all of them.
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: I don't think he knew how many it was. He
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: just he has a different level of expectation for himself,
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: and that is to go deeper into the game for
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: the boys and for nothing else. And he didn't reach it.
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: He was struggling right up to that point. Had a
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: mound visit Like when when if you just look at
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: it and say, well, they still had a lead, why
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: didn't they bring him out?
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: And then and then Bacchus cashed in his runs.
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: Yes, I get that, but it was two oh base hit,
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: two to one line drive out, another a walk, and
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: then it was a mountain visit, and then it was
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: a two to oh at bat and then another base hit,
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: and you're like, it didn't seem like he was in control.
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: I didn't disagree with taking him out. I didn't, But
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: I also think he should be pissed too, because that's
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: the standard that he sets for himself.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: It's not like we don't have someone on the show
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: today who's been pulled from a no hitter.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean yeah, two soons got it too soon.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: You know what I would I would play both.
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd play both sides of that as well. I mean,
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: you're right, the call is to take him out. Man,
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: he's coming off injury. You know, this is season's kind
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: of just getting going. He's laboring. You take him out.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: But if you're Wheeler, you're also like part of my
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: job description as I get eighteen outs, Like when I
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: I take the ball, I'm going to get eighteen outs
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: or more. And you know he didn't even get fifteen outs,
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: so you see that disappointment. I just interviews like that.
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: Crack me up, man. You can tell him kind of
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: long worded. That man answered like six questions in four seconds.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: I would have done like five hundred words to each question.
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: It just is fascinating to me when someone gets in
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: front of a mike and answers questions like that.
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: Jim Salisburry is act the one asking him from the
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: Philly Show. Jim Salisbury was He was like, did you no?
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: Will you maybe?
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: And You're like, ah, like Jim, keep asking him, Come on, Jim.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: Jim's a pro. I mean he's been doing the back
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: and forth for a long time. He's a veteran. And yeah, Strip,
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: that's why you're on with us hosted a show now
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: because you got the words to lay it out. When
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Zach Wheeler's career is done, I don't know if he's
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: gonna want to be on left tier anywhere else. He's
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: a little tighter on the words.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: He can get a podcast done in about eight minutes.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: That's right, Klueber, does that?
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: Clue Bach?
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: Come on, I mean this sucks. I'm going to go
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: back to back on these tweets. So, first off, Bob
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: Knight and Gal said Otani, with his start being pushed
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: back from today until Friday, no longer a viable candidate
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: to put in the pitch in the All Star Game.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: Schedules make his last first half start next weekend. That
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: would require him to pitch on short rest in the
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: All Star Game. We know he's not pitching on short
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: rest in the All Star Game, and conspiracy theory he
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: probably was pushed back also to make sure this happens.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Whoa and Adam mccalvey also posting this on July first, yesterday,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: the Brewers are planning to pitch Miz three more times
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: before the break. That includes July twelfth, first half finale.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: If that's the case, not eligible to pitch in the
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: All Star Game strip I mean, especially Miz for me,
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: because he only pitches. He doesn't pitch a hit. And
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: I know he did this last year for them, but
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: you know, we want to see the best talent pitching
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: in the All Star Game, and it just gets very
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: convenient when all the stars happen to be pitching on
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: Saturday or Sunday.
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah before it sure does. I will say, I don't
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: mind it. It's how I snuck into an All Star
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: Game in twenty eighteen. I was like the last edition.
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: So I'll happily add that to my resume because Miles
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: Michaelis pitched the day before or whatever. Yeah, I mean,
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: it's stinks. You're right, we want to see the best.
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: I'm not surprised from the show hey one at all,
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: especially I've been a Dodger for a long time. They're
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: kind of the kings of workload management. Hence whether entire
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: roster is always healthy on October first or yeah October first.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: And yeah, the miss one stinks.
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: I mean, in an All Star game, all hyped up,
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: he might hit one O seven, So that's the one.
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: That's the one you want to see out there.
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: Hey, he got in there last year, so we got
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: our one miss, So there you go. That's all we needed.
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: And yeah, I love it for the people that get
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: to fill in. I love that part of it. But eventually,
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: like the game is just an exhibition the Brewers. I
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: love that the Brewers were doing this not for the game,
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: but for the fact that that could be a game
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: that they win. And then he rests the whole All
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: Star Game, all All Star Break, and then bang he's
• 24:55
  Speaker 5: pitching again, back on his Friday night miss schedule.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: Funny how that timing works. I mean whatever, I'm not
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: blaming it, you know, I'm just I'm not blaming the teams.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying it sucks. That's all. Just sucks to
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: mess out on some guys. Yeah, just from the fan perspective,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: I want to see miss especially Otani. I get it.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: There's a lot going on there. He's given a lot
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: in Derby's and All Star Games. You know, he's for
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: mizz This is his second full season. He's been I
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: think the wow factor pitcher. So just like Strip said,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: can you do an inning and give me a one
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: oh seven piece. It doesn't sound like we'll see it.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: Things could change, right, maybe the schedule changes, but I
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: doubt it.
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: Sho Hey wasn't pitching anyway, Zero chance he was pitching.
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: Even if he had six days rest. He ain't pitching.
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: He ain't doing a run derby.
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: No Hey.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: This tweet aged a little bit since the Rangers did
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: lose actually to the Guardians last night ninety four, but
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: they had won six in a row to get themselves
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: into first place, and then Kratz, they got hit with
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: the injury bug again. Actually strip first, because this is
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: your old teammate. Seeker hits the ball as hard as anyone.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: He's so freaking good. But as he's getting older here,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: the injury bugs hitting him harder. I know it's always
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: been something he's battled, but it's the back right now.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: So he hits the shelf for the third time this season.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: Rangers need him, although Hey for the Rangers, and you
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: can just stay in the mix and then get Corey
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: back and kind of do the Dodgers sing and be like,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: all right, Corey's back in August and we got two
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: months and then he helps us get into the playoffs
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: and then he's crazy good by then.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: You know, yeah, I hate it for Corey Man.
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: I mean he's he's battled, you know, like ham, he's
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: off and on his whole career. But I think this
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: is the first episode that's a back, and there's really
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: no way to get through a back besides the rest
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: and let it get all the way better. And I
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: think he kind of tried to battle through it, and
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: here it is flared up again, and you know, so
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: I hope he can just kind of get off his
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: feet and get that thing right. And yeah, for the Rangers,
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: you know, keep hanging in there in a division that's
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: nobody's running away with it, and get yourself all the
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: way back. And if it's a September first, you're like
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: a you know, call up on September first. That's the
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: best call up you can have in all the Major
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: League Baseball is Corey Seekers. So if I'm them, I'm
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: just get him all the way right, hanging this thing.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: Jock Peterson is is back in hammering right. He's like
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: he always has. You know, there's that team's doing good
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: things that just I hope he doesn't try and rush
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: back because he's it's in his nature to try and
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: rush back and do more than you know you want
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: him to. So this is me, Corey Seger. If you're watching,
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: take your time. Man back stuff is the worst.
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: Just you saying Josh Peterson made me smile like he
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: had a homer. He had a homer the other day,
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: and just seeing him run around the run around second base,
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: You're like, man, what could have been? I think he
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: was a dude that hit like thirty some steals in
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: the minor leagues before he got called up, Like he
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: was a thirty to thirty minor league guy.
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: Going to Corey Seeger.
• 27:41
  Speaker 5: Then if Corey Seker stays on the field, he's a
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: perennial All Star, possibly an MVP type of player. When
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: you talk about a back, when you talk about a
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: team that is constantly in the mix here because everybody
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: in the American League is in the mix, and they
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: have a couple of good starting pitchers, so they're gonna
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: stay in the mix. You don't want to rush it,
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: but you also want to figure out what the heck
• 28:07
  Speaker 5: is going on because he had that hip thing. I
• 28:09
  Speaker 5: don't know if you were with him strip when he
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: had the hip surgery, and it was weird because it
• 28:13
  Speaker 5: was like, Wow, that's such a young age to have
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: a hip surgery, and it just seems like he goes
• 28:19
  Speaker 5: down and when he comes back, easy lead again. So
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: this Rangers team is going to rise and fall based
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: on health for the rest of the year.
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: This is a blow for them.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Hey, So a couple of things. First off, just shouting
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: out the YouTube chat, Roberto in the chat gifted ten
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: FT memberships. That's awesome, Thank you, Roberto. We appreciate that
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: means a lot, and it gives some other fans in
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: the chat an opportunity to see some of the stuff
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: that we've done on the subscribe only scene over there
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: on YouTube and plus use some crazy emojis. Also closing
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: up our YouTube poll, which player most likely to be
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: traded before the deadline? It felt like this was kind
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: of a layup at this time around. School was on
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: the list, but the Tigers might hold him if they
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: go on a run. Same with all contra Even our
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: oldest chapman, Luisa Rise was on here and he got
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: forty one percent. He's definitely getting traded. He's entering a
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: free agent year and he's on a team that's already
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: admitted they're selling should he have not won like ninety
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: eight percent to this. It's like only if you think
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: he's getting hurt or something.
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: People just want to see Scoo Ball on the move man.
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: Everyone wants to see where schoo Ball is going. So
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: that took some votes away from the obvious choice.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: That's fair. Hey, also some injury. Oh go ahead, Kratz.
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: No, No, I was just gonna say, yeah, it's the
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: obvious Luisa Rise here go.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you going see Matt Chapman we brought up the
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: other day. Now he's been iled, the Giants are shopping him,
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: but you got to see you know what the recovery
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: timeline is for him because he's got an abdominal strain. So, uh,
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. There also a guy we love
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: having on this show, Brent Rrooker, who's I think one
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: of the great minds in the game and also just
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: a great tweeter thing, really well respected in the a's organization.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: He's getting surgery to repair cartilage in his left knee.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: It's been kind of a lost season for him, so
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: he's out for the rest of the year. That's a
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: huge blow for the A's right. We don't talk a
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: ton about them. I don't know if they're getting taken
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: super seriously, but if Rooker in the whole offense is intact,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: they could make a little wild card run strip And
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: it's been a minute for them. You know, you had
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: a little taste of what was going on there. It's
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: been rough times for a while there.
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I was there in twenty twenty four
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: and you could kind of see the riding on the
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: wall that this team was up and coming, you know,
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: with Soda Strum and Langeliers and Wilson and then Rooker
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: kind of the main stay in there a little bit older,
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: and just you know, I hate it for Rooker for sure,
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: because he is the leader in that clubhouse, and you know,
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: he obviously does it on and off the field as
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: far as what we've seen him. Like you said, he tweets,
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: He's got some great tweets on there, but you know,
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: he's a thirty home run guy when he's healthy, and
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: that's a team that's trying to make a little run
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: here and take the next step, and you really wish
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: that he could be on the field for them because he.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: We mentioned earlier about a star.
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: That team needs a star, and you know he's the
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: closest they have to that as far as right now,
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: a guy that really intimidates you when he's in the
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: box hurts yes, yes, yeah, kurts.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: Hey, here we are again again. A reminder to everyone.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: Last three minutes here of FT until next week on Monday.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: No show on Friday, as we observed July fourth holiday
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: day early since July fourth is on a weekend. Aj
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Perzinski will be back from his long tour, including a
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: sit down with the Pope, so we'll get his full
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: analysis of that trip. Yes, very important trip for mister Prizinski.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Looking forward to that stuff we didn't get to. Actually,
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: there was really only one on my list that I
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: didn't get to. And did you guys see the Steve
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: Cohen interview or at least bits and pieces of it.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: The Mets owner he was on with Joe Sherman and
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: John Hayman. He actually like slipped in there. Lindor and
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing, but I'm pretty on the mark here. Lindor
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: and Soda they're fine now. They they kind of got
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: past that stuff. There were a lot of reports, there
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: was a lot going on. Mike Pum I think was
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: the first person the New York Post to put it
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: out there, and he got shredded. Some people on this
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: show kind of shredded. I'm shooling, were like Mike, and
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: then he kind of put something out last night. Like
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: as I said in my report from several months ago,
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: there was some things going on between these two people
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: and the owner of the team just he like talked
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: about it in passing, you know, like, oh, it's fine,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: that stuff's fine. This is where like you could be
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: a billionaire and not being attention to the day to
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: day like he probably assumed everyone already knew that or
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: saw that. But there was a lot of like public
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: battle going on. Krats were some people were like, don't
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: call that out. You're just trying to find drama with
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: a team that stinks. Like it doesn't mean that they
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: Does it mean that that's what caused the Mets to
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: not play well last year. No, there's tons of teammates
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: that don't like each other. It's just the actual report
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: was true.
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: Yes, and yes it affects what did they lose? What
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: did they lose? What did they miss out in the
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: playoffs by one game? All Right?
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: I have a hard time believing in one hundred and
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: sixty two game season one game isn't affected by a
• 33:31
  Speaker 5: tiff that maybe seemed a little bit more than a tiff.
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: It wasn't fisticuffs, but it was a tiff. And they
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: don't ever have to see to eye. But they got
• 33:40
  Speaker 5: to be on the same page or else the whole
• 33:43
  Speaker 5: team's going to be split.
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: M hmm, yep, spot on, man, those those are two
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: best players. They if something comes between them, it's got
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: to get solid very quickly, or else it will linger,
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: or it will bleed on itself onto the field.
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: Where there's smoke, there's fire, And clearly there was a fire,
• 33:59
  Speaker 5: and thank you Steve uncle Stevie for confirming it.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: And he's not stupid either, Like I'm not saying he
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: didn't know that what the public perception is, Just like
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: I've spoken to many managers that are like when I
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: say something, and you're like, does he know he said that?
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: I know I said that. I want certain people to
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: hear certain things. So maybe he was doing a little
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: bit of that psychology publicly as well.
• 34:21
  Speaker 5: That can definitely Stevie's the only owner that tweets, and
• 34:26
  Speaker 5: I love that.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. He's very public facing. We do we
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: do Strip well. Most of them aren't allowed to say anything.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: They're worried they're going to say something stupid. But Steve
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: is smart. And there's some third fourth generation owners that
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: are not really up to speed on baseball or business
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: or anything in the league says do not talk, you
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: will embarrass yourself, and they're right, Strip.
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: You have to confirm or deny this.
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: Do you think there is more than one or more
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: owners that would say, wow, we just made a run
• 34:57
  Speaker 5: in that game?
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: Confirm confirm right?
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, more than one? Yeah?
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, like put the over under about eleven
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: and a half.
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: Thank you, yeah, we've made a run.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: Five yeah, I would say there's probably five even owners
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: that really know ball. Maybe maybe I'm being a little
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: two generous, but five to seven there's a bunch in
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: the middle, and then there's probably like, yeah, I was
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: gonna say tennish where you're like, you know nothing, nothing,
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: and that's why they don't like you speak about anything
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: besides finances once a year. Strip. Good stuff, man, Great
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: to have you on.
