0:48
time for talking yanks
0:54
Hello and welcome to talking yanks the Yankees
0:56
did did two games against the Mets and
0:59
they lost both My
1:01
name is Jimmy. His name is Jake BBD is here
1:05
1152 Wednesday night after a rain delay And
1:12
I feel like I was forced to
1:14
watch terrible baseball tonight
1:19
I think you were Jim Jim
1:21
Davis. What's going on? Yeah,
1:24
I mean the Yankees double digits
1:27
the Mets are Playing
1:29
incredible baseball right now a little bit of
1:32
credit to them. They've got a lot of
1:34
guys clicking in their lineup And
1:37
I don't know hopefully it's a sign of What
1:40
we'll do again one day but man I
1:43
mean just brutal a lot of names in this
1:45
series are tough to look at a lot of
1:47
Performances are tough to look at and
1:49
yeah like the anger thing crossed. I
1:51
mean we're both tired. It's late rain
1:54
delay Um, just a
1:56
lot going on to start summer but
1:59
god Man, it's it's just.
2:02
There's a good storm. Was
2:05
a good storm, that picture of the field
2:07
with a big puddle on it right past
2:09
third base, that was neat. So,
2:11
yeah, I guess there are some highlights. My
2:15
umbrella in my backyard on the
2:17
patio. We
2:20
had the neighbors over and it was open and we were
2:22
like, oh, shit, we should shut that's getting windy. And then
2:24
all of a sudden we heard. Oh,
2:27
and it Mary Poppins itself. Over
2:30
our roof. While
2:33
still open like
2:36
a flying umbrella, a big umbrella for
2:39
a table. Over
2:41
our house from our backyard to our front
2:43
yard. Very
2:46
good. Yeah, could have hit my car,
2:48
which is like in the front. That was. Crazy.
2:51
Didn't hit your car, right? No,
2:54
10 feet short. OK. But
2:57
it was. That was
3:00
cool. And that's the best thing I
3:02
saw tonight. The Mets are hitting
3:04
the shit out of the ball. So if you
3:06
want a happy Mets podcast, go listen to Shea
3:08
Station. I'm sure they're having a joyous time over
3:10
there. But if you're watching
3:13
this game from a Yankee perspective. It's.
3:18
Worse than brutal, man. There's
3:22
two at bats you want to watch and there's
3:24
seven you don't. But
3:27
I mean, heal another bad start.
3:30
Call. Bazaar.
3:33
Yeah. Like. I
3:39
have a theory about game one that I don't know if I'm ready to share,
3:42
but I did prep with all the videos for it. OK,
3:45
maybe a theory inbound. Stay
3:47
tuned. Yeah.
3:51
Yeah. Any
3:55
housekeeping, it's only been two games, I don't
3:57
think so. Not
3:59
really. I mean, it's JD Davis
4:01
is on the team and that's kind of been
4:03
covered. Disagree. And
4:06
half the bullpen is MLB
4:09
random player generator. Like when we
4:12
do the, when
4:14
we do the random video, when we do
4:16
player profile and projections, half the bullpen is
4:18
kind of like random bullpen
4:20
guy. Yeah.
4:22
The bullpen is quadruple A right now. Yes.
4:29
It's as quadruple a bullpen as it gets. Victor
4:32
Gonzalez did not get claimed. Good.
4:35
Good news. Bad news. I
4:38
listened to the S and Y. That's crazy
4:41
that he didn't get claimed, but also makes sense.
4:43
I listened to the S and Y broadcast because
4:45
the yes was on prime and the
4:49
prime app on the Roku TV is just a nightmare.
4:52
So I was listening to Keith and Ron
4:54
and the gang. There's snarky.
4:56
There's snarky as all get out.
4:58
Oh yeah. Like
5:01
they drop like snarky lines
5:03
a lot. And when I was sitting there
5:05
mad and sleepy because the Yankees over looking
5:07
terrible, I didn't like it. Okay.
5:10
But I do think they are really good booth. Um,
5:13
I don't
5:15
like the broadcast. I like the booth. I
5:19
don't need avant-garde. Three,
5:21
three shots of
5:25
the game with like
5:27
the screen split into three and
5:29
a dissolve fade in between like
5:31
I'm watching some high school cinema,
5:34
cinematic, like senior
5:40
video. Yeah,
5:44
I think it's, I think there's
5:46
a chunk of it that it's kind of funny
5:49
looking back now and like how you were raised
5:51
to watch baseball that I think if we saw
5:53
those when we were kids, we'd just be like,
5:55
Oh yeah, that's a classic. Oh yeah. The bases
5:57
are loaded. They're going to show all three runners.
6:00
night right now in this in
6:02
these little pieces of pizza
6:04
pie slices. But yeah,
6:06
it was it was funny watching the
6:09
game on S&Y today. And yeah, I mean, they were
6:11
having a ball. Like those are the broadcasts we like
6:13
to watch when it's like, oh, yeah, they're they're playing
6:16
a team that they know they're not going to lose
6:18
to. Yeah, yeah,
6:20
yeah. No, but there was a
6:22
snarky about like all baseball like the. The
6:25
Nationals thing came up and they're just like
6:27
side talk in that and their side talked
6:30
a bunch of other stuff. I kind of
6:32
enjoyed it. I don't enjoy the actual look
6:34
of the broadcast, though. OK, ridiculous.
6:37
But I have realized that I just
6:39
grew up on yes, so I like
6:41
what yes does. Right. Like when yes
6:43
goes to Toronto, they zoom in on
6:45
that ridiculous new backdrop they have there
6:47
and give you like the pitcher close.
6:49
And when they go to Texas,
6:51
they zoom in. And
6:54
so yes, just like the tighter shot of the pitcher and
6:56
the catcher. And so do I. So
6:58
that's chicken and egg. I'm
7:01
the egg. Yes,
7:03
is the chicken. OK.
7:08
Are we going to burn the games? Yeah, I
7:11
think we want to keep it tighter. It's
7:13
two games and it's the worst games ever.
7:15
So we should tell the people
7:17
about booking dot com. They're going
7:19
to tell us so bad. It's booking die. Yeah. And
7:21
it's brought to you by talking to Yanks. Summer
7:24
travel is heating up. Go to Queens.
7:27
Go see the Mets play. They're hot right now.
7:31
Go to your rival city. We're actually
7:33
heading up to Boston in
7:36
July to go see the Sox and the
7:38
Yanks. Hopefully they'll have turned it around by
7:41
then. But
7:43
booking dot com, they book
7:45
it all. I mean, that's the whole website.
7:48
So if you're looking for a family friendly
7:50
resort, bring the two kids, Jim, or if
7:52
you're looking for one of BBD's party swingers
7:55
resort, they probably got that. I don't know
7:57
how they'd label it, but
7:59
you could find. It might be red. Yes, our
8:01
whatever. And.
8:05
booking.com is
8:07
the place to go for all of
8:09
it. An official accommodations partner in Major
8:12
League Baseball. Go on the
8:14
site booking.com or check out
8:16
the app. Go to
8:18
another city. Summer's here. You're traveling. Go
8:21
to Savannah. Sure. Chattanooga.
8:28
Why not? Subway
8:35
series takes place in Queens
8:37
and it would seem like
8:39
David versus Goliath as Peterson
8:41
would take on Cole in
8:43
the Yankees. Bottom two. How
8:45
about out of the park
8:47
Mark Vientos goes yard and
8:49
it's getting hairy as Bader
8:51
does the same former Yankee
8:53
great makes it for nothing
8:56
met Mark parks in
8:58
the park again. Two homers off
9:00
a coal and we're finding Nemo.
9:02
He gets one for homers
9:05
off of Garrett Cole six
9:08
earned runs no strikeouts is
9:10
this hell. No, it's Queens
9:12
six. Nothing Mets SOTO
9:15
soda solo Homer but the Mets
9:17
answer with three of their own
9:19
in the six Wells
9:21
has an RBI single and judge
9:24
he plates five runs late
9:27
with the grand slam in
9:29
the RBI double but too
9:31
little too late Yanks lose
9:33
nine seven final. Yanks
9:37
lose. Nine
9:40
seven final. Okay,
9:43
I have a theory about this game. Okay, I
9:46
think the Yanks playing blind. Okay,
9:49
or at least heavily bored vision. And
9:53
I have a lot of proof. Sure.
9:57
Okay. All
10:00
of Cole's three, two pitches were
10:02
about a foot off the plate. Yeah. And
10:05
he reacted as if all of them should
10:08
have been called strike. It
10:10
was weird. I sent those two
10:12
beeps. Um, it was straight
10:15
up weird. It was really
10:17
weird. Like they're all
10:19
fastballs inside and they're so inside
10:21
and on all of them, he
10:24
kind of gives like a little arch back,
10:26
like, Oh, like it didn't get the call
10:28
and like, Oh, look at that. Like it's
10:32
all to play it by so much. So
10:35
I think he had some blurry vision going on. And
10:38
then if you go to Jamai Jones, first at bat, it's
10:42
a three, two pitch that he takes looking
10:44
for strike three and gives the
10:47
ump like, really? It's dead
10:49
center. It splits the plate.
10:53
I said, beeps the, the pitch
10:56
tracker thingy, you know, and
10:59
I mean, it couldn't be
11:02
more like just right in there. Yeah. I don't,
11:04
I don't think he's mad at the ump there.
11:06
I think he's mad at Jamai Jones there. Oh,
11:09
he turns and like says something to the ump.
11:11
Yeah. He says be better. Jamai. Um,
11:14
none of the Yankees hitters looked like they'd seen
11:16
a fastball before. So to add to your
11:18
theory, I mean, I tweeted out, it
11:20
was, it was nuts. They were all
11:23
taking the sinker. Like they'd never seen
11:25
a lefty sinker before. Yeah.
11:27
There's more. Soto tried to bunt on a
11:29
three Oh pitch. Right. So
11:33
he tried to, he checked the scoreboard
11:35
to see the count blind blurred out.
11:38
Um, Glaber puts
11:40
his glove down to grab the ball, misses
11:44
it, misses
11:47
it. And then DJ puts his
11:49
glove down to grab the ball at the very
11:51
end. Misses it.
11:53
Yeah. Can't find it. So
11:58
someone's going on with their eyes. site this game. Bucket
12:01
O bad. Pretty
12:05
much everyone had it. J.D.
12:09
Davis that first inning they load
12:11
the bases and here's Glaver doogie
12:13
Davis anti Bing
12:15
bong. I think Glaver swung
12:17
at the first 10 pitches he saw. He's
12:22
probably getting talked about later but yeah
12:25
he he was in the bad place
12:28
including running a
12:32
lot of boons post game presser. They
12:35
got benched. Judge
12:41
hits a grand slam. Yeah.
12:44
Hey, why not? Something
12:47
weird about that grand slam. Sure.
12:51
I barely got over the wall. It
12:53
really looked like you got extra carry that it wasn't going
12:55
to get. In my opinion. They
12:57
asked judge that did you think it was going to go out in
13:00
the post game presser. And
13:03
I expected him to play like the judge
13:05
draw like you know thought I got I
13:07
didn't know thought it might and
13:10
he just paused and smiled and said yeah.
13:15
Like talkily. Not
13:18
wrong. Not wrong but I
13:20
was surprised because that's usually not how he goes
13:22
about it. Yeah.
13:26
I think I think
13:29
judge. I think that's a little sign of
13:31
judge frustration with media
13:33
or the team right now. And
13:37
yeah Bader always selling in the
13:39
outfield. But yeah
13:41
I mean almost a really cool moment. And
13:43
then Verdugo leads off the night ninth
13:46
with a ball down the line that if
13:49
that ball drops and with subway series games
13:51
just being pure chaos the past couple of
13:53
years. Yanks might put
13:55
a rally together but they gave
13:57
up nine. Yeah
14:02
Cold through a fastball forcing
14:05
fastball 91 and
14:07
a half miles per hour Only
14:09
the second such fastball he's thrown in the Yankees
14:11
uniform He
14:14
hasn't thrown forcing fastball He
14:17
threw one in 2020 that I found and all the
14:19
others were from like Pirates or
14:21
very early Houston before they like
14:24
changed him So That
14:27
was scary some fun quotes
14:29
from him after the game him comparing himself
14:31
to a truck. I Actually
14:34
haven't heard those so I'm excited. Oh, yeah
14:37
I mean he compared it
14:39
to because everyone's interested, you know, where's
14:41
Yankee's panic Twitter saying Cole's out for
14:43
the season seeing
14:45
that fastball You
14:47
got everyone wondering what was going on because
14:49
he did that first inning
14:51
was so weird. He He He
14:55
was complaining about those pitches where Trevino had
14:57
to cover him for the ump on his
14:59
way off the field Which
15:01
was like just an odd
15:04
one where? Cole said
15:06
Cole told the ump those aren't all balls and
15:08
Trevino had to turn and be like He's
15:11
just cooling off for a second like because
15:14
they are all balls But
15:16
it was so bizarre cuz Cole was getting ahead of each hitter
15:19
He was dialing it up clearly more juiced
15:21
up than he's been But
15:24
he wasn't challenging the Mets hitters So
15:26
his pitch count got up and he burnt himself
15:29
out that yeah, he said Said
15:31
when you're driving a truck, it's kind of like
15:33
how you use the clutch and you got to
15:35
be careful How
15:38
you use it because you can burn
15:40
it out speak
15:42
French. Yeah, basically Basically
15:46
saying he burned himself out and then Boone said
15:49
the same thing so they either believe that or
15:51
want to believe in that Was
15:56
he ever throwing fast in
15:59
the first inning He had 99. I
16:02
think his average fastball in the first inning was 98 or
16:05
something like that. And then it dropped
16:07
to 93 in the second and then it ticked back
16:10
up to 94 95. He
16:13
was throwing the cutter a lot, but
16:15
not how he usually throws the cutter. Like
16:17
it was just like in the zone, like
16:19
center cut cutters. I don't know. That
16:22
whole game was weird and bad, mostly bad
16:24
from the Yankees point of view. Yes. Bader
16:28
jumping. Everyone has reminded me of
16:30
2020 Yanks or 2021 Yanks call whenever bottom
16:33
of the order or
16:37
just first pitch fastball. Here you go.
16:40
Here's a Homer ball kid. Well,
16:46
that was game one. Yes.
16:49
Cole followed by Bickford
16:51
Tonkin Hill. Canley. Yeah.
16:55
Bigford gives done in gave up a couple of hits. But
16:57
the Glavers earlier
17:02
stinky. Yeah.
17:08
Game two. Sure.
17:16
Yankee fans getting sick and tired
17:18
of their losing ways would hope
17:20
to heal up with Luis returning
17:23
to the bump while the Mets
17:25
would desire a mini-string. A mini
17:27
sweep behind Sean Manner. Yep.
17:30
Big first down by Martinez. A
17:32
lot of the groundwork done by
17:35
Alvarez. Extra point by McNeil. It's
17:37
seven. Nothing. Jets Mets
17:40
send heal. Luis finishes
17:42
4.1 fiver and runs two
17:45
K's judge hits his
17:47
obligatory. Hey, I'm still good. Home
17:49
run. But why Oh, G. Oh, yo,
17:51
yo. Yo, yo. He gives up
17:53
five of his own Yankees. They
17:56
lose both games to
17:59
the Mets. This one 12-2 final. Rain
18:06
delay. I
18:10
mean the first game was
18:13
bad because so many of the
18:15
players played bad and
18:18
had weird reactions to it. This
18:20
game was straight
18:23
sad. Pretty sad.
18:27
Yeah. That was quick. Be
18:29
nice. Sad effort.
18:33
Sad names involved. Sad
18:37
to watch. It
18:40
made me sad. Yes. Because
18:44
I was like towards
18:47
the end when Yogo is pitching. Like
18:51
I don't care. Right.
18:55
He could give up 20 runs right now and
18:58
I don't it doesn't change the
19:00
fact that he's pitching for five
19:02
innings. I
19:07
don't care about Yogo or
19:09
Bickford or fucking any of
19:11
these names man. Yogo
19:16
62 pitches for two innings today.
19:22
Jeremiah Jones with Nat
19:25
Bat and every game in
19:27
the series. Trent
19:29
Grisham. I
19:31
don't know. I
19:36
mean I think you do know. Don't
19:38
care. A
19:44
lot of names that don't matter. To
19:46
like the playoff yanks. So
19:50
that's been tough. Gonna heal. Care
19:53
about that. Yeah. This
19:57
was the big one. This was the pivot start.
20:00
wrong way. Yeah. Yeah.
20:09
No one's swinging and missing that as fastball
20:11
anymore. So I don't know what's changed on
20:14
that. Man,
20:17
he stopped throwing it so much. I wonder if
20:19
he was tipping or something. Yeah,
20:23
he stopped throwing it last week. It
20:26
went down. A spike
20:29
down to start before this as well. How
20:31
many times what percentage did he throw the fastball
20:34
today through it? 36%. So
20:36
yeah, that's even lower than last week, which
20:39
was 44, which was the lowest
20:41
on the year. So this is this game's
20:43
the lowest on the season. Very
20:46
good amount. And
20:50
it got smacked around last time, five
20:53
hits. And this game, I
20:55
don't know if I'm gonna be able to
20:57
find out how many hits right away, but
21:00
seven balls in play. Only
21:03
three swings and misses, 15 swings.
21:07
So yeah, I don't know what that is. Is
21:10
the V low down? Is the spin rate down or like
21:12
the metrics down on it? It's
21:14
yoga. What's
21:18
that? It's yoga. Is
21:21
yoga's doing it? Who are
21:24
you talking about? He'll Oh, I thought
21:26
you're talking about yoga. Now I've
21:28
been talking about heel. Okay, good to know. Yeah,
21:32
I mean, it's all it's all
21:34
like the first hit of the game.
21:36
We were watching
21:38
in the lounge and we were like, Wow,
21:40
that pitch is almost placed middle middle again.
21:43
And then
21:46
he tried to throw I think one of his
21:48
final pitches was he tried to throw a slider
21:50
to Alonzo. That was just like, it
21:52
almost hit him because it was it was
21:54
nothing like I was so shocked on the
21:57
replay that that was an attempted slider. that,
22:01
yeah, he's, uh, he's lost right
22:03
now. And I, the average Vilo
22:05
on his fastball is actually up
22:07
the last two starts before this
22:09
one. So I wonder,
22:11
he's compensating for, he's overthrowing. I
22:13
don't know. Yeah. This was 97
22:16
and during his good stretch, it was 96.
22:19
So it was little, but taking up weird.
22:26
That's a bummer seeing him pitch bad. Yes.
22:31
And Cole. Anything
22:33
else in this game? Took out judge.
22:35
He had another Homer. He's good. Judge,
22:40
judge Homer. DJ
22:44
got a hit. We
22:46
mentioned it before, but no Glaver in
22:48
the starting lineup after, after
22:51
yesterday's debacle. Burdouga
22:53
with two hits in this game. Yeah.
22:59
Oh, remember him. Double
23:01
play Yankees were out early too. Oh,
23:04
three out of the four innings to
23:06
start the game had double plays. Brutal.
23:12
Yeah. So they started off. Both
23:16
games. Dude, he'll
23:18
end. Cole both walked. Four
23:24
guys. Babes. If
23:27
you can, can you look into if
23:29
the Mets mound is crooked and
23:32
it throws all starting pitchers out
23:34
of whack. See if
23:37
pitchers have career high walks at
23:40
City Field with fastballs
23:42
on their glove side. They're righties.
23:46
I can. Right.
23:49
Mounds crooked. Why not? Some good
23:51
something was up. You'd
23:54
like to think the Yankees would notice
23:56
that I don't know. No,
24:00
Buck Showalter would have. Well,
24:04

25:11
not to do this to you, but I just watched
25:14
the first heel ball
25:16
for pitch. Way
25:19
outside. Love side. Oh,
25:23
did he fight it at all? Oh,
25:26
my God. So was his other one. They're
25:29
just like the coal pitches leaning.
25:33
What's going on? They didn't know where the plate
25:35
was. That makes sense. All their
25:37
pitches that were middle, middle, they thought were
25:40
outside corner. Yeah. I
25:43
tried searching for quotes from pictures about
25:45
Cityfields man being crooked didn't didn't turn
25:47
up anything, but I'm only to OK.
25:49
Well, what I'm going to send you
25:52
this video, he
25:54
was of heels. One
25:56
of his ball for pitches. Oh
26:01
my goodness running
26:04
into a theory here You
26:09
see that look familiar I Mean
26:15
it's tough. No one's countering
26:17
it It's
26:22
crazy stuff Now
26:25
his other walks aren't fastballs, but
26:27
they're that side of the plate So
26:32
I'll dive into it Just
26:38
make sure We
26:41
don't got any anything fishy going on
26:44
good You
26:48
have pride to give out It's
26:54
a good day to be Thursday well
26:56
it was Wednesday I guess I'll
27:00
be going Aaron judge He
27:03
got hits in his for Four
27:06
out of his five at bats the other two
27:08
he walked and there was also a hit by
27:10
pitch So he had an 875 OBP And
27:15
two of his hits were homers another
27:18
was a double he had seven of
27:20
the Yankees nine RBI I'm
27:23
I'm confident in my pick
27:27
Yeah Good
27:30
pick diving catch in the
27:32
first game That
27:35
was nice I Hate
27:39
to I Hope
27:43
you allow this it seems like
27:45
special circumstances. I'm
27:48
interested two games I'm
27:51
going Aaron judge You Had
27:56
an 800 average 870 75
28:00
on base Yeah,
28:03
that's tough Cuz the
28:05
one else is anything, you know some of
28:07
the pride MF or game is
28:09
like when does it fall on your day of the
28:11
week and that's you know Feels
28:14
like we always we always double up
28:16
sometimes we always double up sometimes
28:20
Our it feels like a Warren said I Mean
28:23
I'd rather abstain and give it anyone else.
28:25
Yeah, I mean it's slightly rude to Soto
28:27
getting pitched around for a couple days Yeah
28:32
so Okay, that
28:34
wasn't much of a counter his outfield
28:37
defense is starting to Arise.
28:39
Yeah, it's funny seeing uh The
28:43
Mets proud castling and that a lot harder
28:45
than the Yankees would have yeah, that was
28:47
funny Yeah, cuz I was I was just
28:49
like yeah, you're right Yeah,
28:53
but I mean dude I wasn't proud
28:55
of a single pitcher yeah Oh
29:02
Wow it but like it's kind of like
29:04
a genie wish situation like you this really
29:06
puts one in the chamber What
29:09
does that mean? I mean, I'm throwing
29:11
you a bone here. Oh Now
29:15
circumstances have dictated that
29:17
this is my only option really Well,
29:19
I could revoke it then you're back to
29:22
giving a pride. Well, I'd
29:24
abstain then you got it Well,
29:26
you can't sing Seen
29:28
that with MFers before yeah, these my pride we've been
29:30
playing a lot of watching guts lately If you want
29:33
to get the deal done you got a sweet in
29:35
the pot No,
29:37
no, we we we used to have doubles all
29:40
the time Sometimes
29:44
they give you go back to like 2019 2018 it was double city Okay,
29:50
their judges the pride it's like
29:52
big time it's a great Thursday
29:54
for me is Never
29:58
got him out and they were trying.
30:01
They were trying. Every
30:04
time, except the two walks. And
30:08
the hit by pitch. That
30:11
was those don't do that. Yeah. I
30:13
checked the although the Yankees are hitting a lot
30:16
of guys because they got quadruple a bullpen. Yeah,
30:19
like a, like an
30:21
awful look. Yeah,
30:23
I it's like, yes,
30:27
it's like, it's currently like
30:29
the circus comes to town.
30:32
All of the animals are just shitting
30:34
themselves. No one's doing tricks and
30:37
like people in the stands are getting hurt. Like
30:40
it's a dangerous bad event at a Yankee
30:42
game. I'd like them to
30:44
stop throwing up and in because like
30:46
Boone and everyone always says if
30:48
you can't do it, don't do it. Well, this is
30:50
like a, you know, it's
30:52
a DFA pen. It's a waiver wire pen. They
30:55
can't do it. And it's not like it's
30:58
leading to results. I mean, the Mets Mets
31:00
are averaging 10 and a half points a
31:02
game against us. I
31:05
do that math, right? I don't
31:07
as me, but yeah. Yeah. 21.
31:10
Yeah. Yeah.
31:14
Okay. I checked the log. We've, we've
31:16
done enough doubles that
31:19
I think it's allowed. It's been allowed. Oh
31:22
yeah. There's just a favor that will be
31:24
granted out sometime. Chalk full of
31:26
doubles. Robin Williams. Okay.
31:30
Who are we giving our MF or two? I
31:32
mean, this should
31:35
probably be the most extravagant section of
31:37
the show. So I don't know. I
31:39
don't know if we can double, um,
31:42
you fucking double so hard
31:44
kid. Uh, we're doubling this.
31:47
I'm going to go with the doubles
31:49
machine. Glaber Torres. I
31:51
mean, did got benched on
31:54
both sides. I think I'm not jumping in
31:56
on this action on both sides. Well, I
31:58
mean, a lot of other guys. Could get
32:00
a piece of the action but dude that
32:02
shot of him you're watching SN1 Yes,
32:05
but it's not a sad. Yes shot. You
32:08
just said yes shot Amazon that
32:11
was Sad
32:14
yeah because
32:20
That's that's that's
32:23
for the public to see yes That's
32:28
an act I
32:30
am really feel like that but
32:33
you Not to the point
32:35
where you have to sit That's
32:37
for the camera. Yes, and
32:41
that's sad and pathetic That's
32:44
content glaver who got into the content
32:46
game this year and his contract year.
32:49
I mean he's Literally,
32:51
he's literally losing hundreds
32:54
of thousands of dollars by the day Boone's
33:00
mad at him. I know Boone said
33:03
while he's fighting an injury line and That's
33:06
the one that gets quoted and like picked up
33:08
because people want to be upset about that. But
33:10
if you listen and watch When
33:13
Boone is addressing the glaver situation that
33:15
postgame he is mad And
33:18
he did bench him and
33:21
he did hint at that. That's the reason they
33:23
said, you know did Did
33:25
him running the first? After
33:27
this he said that caught my attention Yeah,
33:32
it was if you speak Boone
33:34
you heard a very different press conference than the
33:36
words that were said That
33:39
was as much as he was gonna give It
33:43
was fun on the Yankees call Because
33:48
it was coney talking about and again,
33:50
it's what We're
33:52
like so tired and old that it's and
33:55
yes, the Yankees have a good record currently,
33:57
but they're playing awful That
34:00
it's tough to get mad right now, but
34:02
glamer does it to me because I've been
34:06
David Cohen was talking about how on the 90s
34:08
Yankees one of the best teams ever played a
34:11
veteran-laden team that Joe
34:13
Tori Would bench guys
34:16
for actions like that and
34:18
it wasn't viewed as like the deepest
34:20
darkest thing You could do to a
34:22
baseball player. It was like,
34:24
you know what? This game can grind you
34:26
and wear on you You know who else
34:28
probably need to be bench DJ because seeing
34:31
a player of his caliber go after a
34:33
ball with that effort Is
34:36
just a broken man haunted past so
34:39
Glaber should have been benched three years ago Luis
34:43
Renjifo who Yankees Twitter wants to
34:45
trade for know what changed
34:47
his career getting benched He's
34:50
literally went from a league average player and
34:53
again, he had the talent in him So
34:55
it's not like you should just bench a
34:57
guy and maybe they'll turn into something more
35:00
but I think it focused him and taught him a
35:03
lesson and Glaber needed
35:05
this lesson three years ago and
35:07
it never happened. I Agree
35:13
the rat running is one thing missing that
35:15
ground ball is crazy. I Think
35:19
I can find infield in videos because
35:22
I think infield in Glaber has missed every
35:25
play season It's
35:28
not a two others I can think of and I'm trying
35:30
to remember how many other balls could be
35:32
hit to him when he's playing in you know Yeah
35:38
There's one that he stopped and then threw
35:40
home and just like Chuck
35:43
the throw and there's another
35:45
they bobbled the transfer that I'm remembering if
35:47
I'm remembering, right? So
35:55
Yeah, all right, okay,
35:58
maybe he's terrible I didn't feel didn't defense. Yeah.
36:02
You could take some words out too. Let's
36:07
do some real and they're
36:10
brought to you by the
36:12
Dan Patrick partnership. John
36:14
boy media and I heart podcasts have team
36:17
up. What do I mean? I mean
36:20
two of your favorite John boy media shows
36:22
can now be found over at the
36:24
Dan Patrick show. In addition to where you
36:27
already watch or listen. That's right. These
36:29
three things. Wake and Jake have
36:31
joined the I heart podcast and
36:34
Dan Patrick show family. Best
36:36
part you can still consume these
36:38
shows. However, you know, and love
36:41
them. Basically we are friends now.
36:43
We're saying we're brothers. A
36:45
good old commercial. You can tell
36:48
we're excited about this one. And I've peeled
36:50
the curtain back on this one. We like
36:52
were, but we're just like, okay, this is
36:54
cool. Dan Patrick. We're friends now. It's actually
36:56
been awesome for us and I think for
36:58
them too. So, uh, thank
37:01
you for your support. And next time you
37:03
see Dan Patrick say, Hey, thanks man. Wait.
37:07
Thanks man. I found a play where labor is
37:09
playing in and he made the play. Okay. I
37:12
also found the one in Toronto where he
37:14
threw it to third to Oswaldo made the
37:16
tag, but then he got
37:18
reviewed because as well, those feet placement was
37:21
odd. Remember? Cause of the new rule. Yeah.
37:23
Which isn't actually a rule. No one does it. Yeah.
37:28
We respected his effort on that play. Yeah.
37:31
It was actually a really nice play by labor. Um,
37:37
It's funny. There's that hard
37:39
shot at his Waldo at second and
37:42
Lindor didn't run and the
37:44
Mets broadcast for a second was just like,
37:46
whoa, like, Hey Mets, don't start studying what
37:48
the Yankees are doing. We're
37:52
the Mets. We're good. They're
37:54
hot. They are hot and do their hitting
37:56
the shit out of the ball. I'm not trying to knock them. No,
37:59
it's If people
38:01
listen to talking baseball, it's
38:05
it's my dumb regular season
38:07
analytics theory, but the more
38:09
hitters you have like that
38:11
currently outweighs good
38:14
pitching in a regular season. You're right.
38:16
There's season. Your whole pens get burned
38:18
out and starters. They're like the Mets
38:20
in their lineup right now. Everyone
38:23
is hitting Lindor. Sorry. The year
38:26
freezing hitting Nemo is going nuts.
38:28
J.D. Martinez hitting Alonzo hitting Alvarez
38:31
hitting Vientos nut job. Bader.
38:33
We've seen how streaky he can be. The
38:36
guys I currently left out Tyrone Taylor who
38:39
had a home run today and Jeff McNeil
38:41
who's a batting champion. So like their
38:43
lineup is relentless and we've now seen this with
38:45
the Yankees for two years. When
38:47
they only have one or two
38:50
guys in their lineup, they become
38:52
sad. Patriotic Kenny level shit. Yeah.
38:56
Pretty sad. Pretty
39:00
sad. Is that your
39:02
first award? I thought about
39:04
transitioning that way, but then it could
39:06
all turn into patriotic Kenny and I
39:10
don't know. I don't know what I want to dig up on him. You
39:12
know, I'm more of a spending fan. You're
39:15
what? More of a spending fan.
39:18
Spenny? Nah, said no
39:20
one ever. Okay. If your team's Spenny,
39:22
get out of here. Kenny was, Spenny
39:25
made the show. They both existed in the same
39:28
world. You know, you
39:30
watch Kenny versus Spenny ever. No. I feel
39:32
like you never watched that show. No, still
39:34
didn't know what you're talking about. It's a
39:36
funny show. Okay. I don't know if I'd
39:38
look back at it now and find it
39:40
funny, but when I was in high
39:43
school, college, I laughed. Okay.
39:46
I've seen some of those laughs. Uh,
39:54
uh, the stepped on your shoe award stepped
39:58
on your shoe. award.
40:05
Um, back of the shoe or toe?
40:08
Uh, toe ish. So
40:10
dancing. Are
40:14
you fishing for hints here? You
40:16
have it as a dancing
40:18
thing? Are you the hint
40:20
fishermen? Uh, stepped on your
40:22
shoes, stepped on your shoes.
40:26
Is it a good order or bad awards? You
40:28
see what happened? DJ? I'm a
40:30
you close wrong
40:32
initials, but right. JD Davis.
40:35
Only award I had in my head was I was going
40:38
to give to him. Well, that's tough. In my world. I
40:40
would have guessed that. That's how my brain works. Um,
40:43
Jimmy, when we met Trevor Plouffe, I just mentioned
40:45
talking baseball. You, me, baby bro, Luke in L.
40:47
A. We're a little nervous. We had no plans
40:49
to meet up with them. We had a couple
40:52
minutes were like, Okay, former ball player wants to
40:54
meet up looks hot. Uh,
40:56
so we're excited to meet Trevor Plouffe at a brewery.
40:58
Hey, how are you? Nice to meet you. Baby
41:00
bro. Luke, your little brother steps
41:02
on his shoe. Yeah, we're
41:04
with a pro ball player for the first
41:07
time. Fresh outfit, fresh kicks. Luke's
41:10
stops him pretty good. Uh, power
41:12
move. Hey, uh, but an
41:14
awful first impression. Uh, and that's what
41:16
we got from JD Davis. So, uh,
41:19
Luke and Trevor friends now. So maybe
41:21
they, I think they're past
41:23
that you don't forget. But
41:26
maybe there's a day we can get
41:28
past that. But yeah, tough, tough time.
41:30
First inning basis loaded.
41:33
I mean, I was, I was going to give him the, I
41:36
was going to give it the nothing award.
41:40
I didn't get to know him. Like it
41:42
feels like we were at the same
41:44
party, but never in the same room.
41:46
Okay. You asked me what
41:48
he looks like shrug. You
41:50
asked me what mood he was in.
41:52
No idea. You asked me
41:55
what his personality, did he smile? Never
41:57
saw him reach base. No fucking clue.
41:59
Uh, Two walks. I didn't
42:02
see that. His approach at the
42:04
plate, when I saw Ben Rice
42:07
bat, I knew it right away. I
42:09
know nothing about him that
42:12
I didn't already know from watching him in past times.
42:16
So I'm
42:20
not holding judgment. It
42:23
just didn't feel like I got to know him at all.
42:28
And I tried. Is
42:30
that bats today? I
42:32
tried to, like the first couple, I tried to
42:34
perk up. They're like, let me see this. Right.
42:38
I don't remember anything. Okay.
42:44
Casey Musgraves. Hmm. Oh,
42:51
but yeah, good award stepped on his toe.
42:55
No impression. Not a good
42:57
first impression. It's a bad first
42:59
impression. You can say that. Is
43:02
it? I don't, I don't.
43:04
Yes. Yes. I
43:06
don't remember anything. The whole weekend was bad. He came up
43:08
with the bases loaded, struck out when we were begging for
43:10
a ball and play. I don't
43:12
remember that. You erased it. You're
43:15
already erasing it. Two lefty starters.
43:17
Yeah. Yeah. Specifically supposed
43:19
to hit lefty starters. So you can do that, but you saw
43:21
it. I have no memory of it. You saw it, but you
43:23
erased it, which is fine. Yeah.
43:26
Give out your word to JD Davis. It's a double
43:28
up. No way. I
43:31
have so many other awards.
43:36
Your stiff award. BBD's
43:43
dad. DJ
43:46
LeMahieu. Yeah. Bend your back,
43:49
old man. You're
43:52
so stiff. I always described DJ
43:54
as like a two by four in
43:56
the infield that came to life. No,
43:58
I didn't say about Todd Frazier. I think. Dude,
44:03
DJ, are you mobile? That
44:10
play with. Who
44:13
was running the first today that beat
44:15
out the infield dribbler? On
44:18
the yanks of the Mets. No, it was a ball
44:20
hit to DJ. Oh,
44:23
yeah. Is that the end toes? Could
44:27
have been. It
44:29
wasn't so it wasn't very slow, but DJ
44:32
had no shot. And also DJ had to
44:34
like take seven steps to then get the
44:36
ball, then throw it. And I was just
44:38
like, no way. Yeah. No
44:40
way. You look like me after a day
44:42
in a computer chair, nine to five. And
44:45
I stand up and I'm just like. So
44:51
I don't know. We got to do some
44:54
yoga stretch or something stiff. Looks
44:56
a little stiff out there. Yeah,
45:00
that's why I gave him the stiff award. Still
45:03
no extra base hits, although one
45:05
that might have been a homer at the stadium. Yeah,
45:09
I were unfortunately at the point where
45:11
we're on good swing tracker and that
45:14
swing you're referencing was probably his his
45:16
best so far. Yeah.
45:22
Well, stiff out there. Really
45:27
stiff. Too stiff.
45:31
Too stiff when you know
45:33
you're playing a game like that's
45:35
the stiffness of someone. Who
45:38
doesn't realize they're playing a game today
45:41
and they don't get like stretched out by the trainer. Or
45:45
like limber up. Yeah. I mean, like if this
45:47
was 1970s, someone would walk past and be
45:49
like limber up, kid. I showed up right before
45:51
the game and I assumed I'd be coming
45:53
off the bench and then I was starting. Yeah.
45:58
Super stiff. It
46:01
was. Okay. Uh,
46:12
I'm going to give
46:14
out the great series award. Great
46:18
series, huh? Austin
46:21
Wells. Jim,
46:25
this was a bad day. Oh,
46:29
this wasn't my best award. I'll just be honest with
46:31
you. Give him a half point. He
46:34
needs it. And
46:37
now I get two genie wishes. The
46:40
second most hits on the team this series. This is
46:42
Alex for Dugo. You
46:45
mentioned you're you're you've already erased JD. Don't remember. You
46:49
don't remember his hits. He
46:52
had Aaron judge had four hits quantity four.
46:54
Alex for Dugo had two that both came
46:56
today after he into two double plays.
47:01
So Alex for Dugo net net
47:03
made four outs his first two
47:05
at bats and then got two singles. Um,
47:10
but yeah, I think the rain and the misery
47:12
already came in. Yeah,
47:15
one was with two outs in the eighth ground ball up the middle.
47:18
Lindor dove over it like he would cared about it.
47:20
Oh, I saw that replay. I
47:22
did not see who hit that ball. Yeah, that
47:24
was redo go. And then he
47:26
had one before that when it was seven to two. The
47:29
top of the sixth inning and he flared it to left
47:31
field. Like that was like a nice hit off of Danny
47:33
Young. Sure. Um,
47:37
and now he's got the Statue of Liberty cleats on.
47:42
And then he's got the statue of
47:44
liberty cleats on. And
47:46
colors run rampant. You know what? I
47:49
decided if they were winning, I'd be all in on this color. Okay. That's
47:53
fine. So the petty,
47:55
the petty meter on my gripe about. how
48:00
this team has just added a
48:02
third color to the uniform, the
48:06
percentage is 100%. Yeah,
48:10
I mean, it makes sense. It's kind of
48:12
what sports are supposed to be about. Something's
48:14
working, hammer it. If something's not working, change
48:16
it, which was
48:18
a popular debate on the interstate.
48:22
Yeah, I don't know. We gave a lot
48:24
of Verdugo's like, Verdugo's playing to
48:26
his baseball card. How solid is this? He's
48:28
now playing below his baseball card. And
48:31
if we're thinking about realistic options that
48:33
can like kick back into
48:35
gear, like he's
48:39
one of two and a half options, I think
48:41
we like. Yeah,
48:44
it's a really bad. The
48:49
lefties things is real. So like
48:51
if he gets a month more righties and
48:53
he's good, kind
48:55
of just means like, all right, well come playoffs, he's
48:57
a platoon guy, but we like him as a platoon
48:59
guy. I don't know where we're
49:01
at with anything. Four
49:04
in Toronto, we're seeing one lefty. Man,
49:11
if they get embarrassed
49:13
themselves in Toronto, that stinks.
49:15
Would be bad. That'd
49:20
be so bad. Hard agree. Hard
49:25
agree. Lasted
49:28
an award by me. Yes, sir. I'm
49:32
giving the. Now
49:40
you might not like this. OK. Hey,
49:44
it's all I want. Be open.
49:47
Be open? Yeah, I appreciate that
49:49
you started there. OK,
49:52
I got two awards. OK. I
49:56
got one name. Name. The
49:59
award is. memories memories
50:03
and there's two people that
50:06
I give this award to but my
50:09
hint for you is they
50:12
may be Mets mm-hmm
50:17
okay
50:21
again I respect the openness Bader
50:24
and Otto oh
50:27
I like I like what you did there yeah but
50:30
no the Enthos and
50:33
Cunningham the Enthos and Cunningham
50:36
no maybe the Enthos I'm
50:38
blanket but I think it's
50:41
Alvarez right Studa Baker and
50:43
pen a baker no
50:47
Alvarez so one of them's Alvarez
50:50
okay that shot of him tagging
50:52
up that'll
50:54
be the one of two things I remember
50:56
from the series that was
50:58
unbelievable yeah and I know the Mets
51:00
are beating us and we can't like
51:02
have fun but just
51:05
as a human watching baseball that
51:08
was unbelievable and
51:11
cool I'm not knocking it he was hustling
51:14
what did I text you guys what was
51:16
my analogy of it at the time it
51:18
looked like both of his
51:21
legs fell asleep and he was trying to
51:23
violently wake them up yeah as like each
51:25
step was like a slam to like get
51:27
the pins and needles away it looked
51:30
like he was running out
51:33
of quicksand like
51:35
the final steps of the beach when you're like
51:37
getting out of the water into the sand you
51:39
have to like jump over the the water in
51:41
the wet sand that's what it looked like yeah
51:46
it was a it was a tough visual
51:48
I glad you text I'm glad you texted
51:51
about it because I was debating it and
51:54
yeah I was post rain delay so maybe there's
51:56
a little something there but he's 22 Yeah,
52:02
that's where I I texted and I'll
52:04
just be honest with the people. You
52:08
know, catchers tend to be slow in this
52:10
league. Sometimes there's body types that are good
52:12
at baseball, but not the running. I
52:14
at one point Francisco Alvarez will be the slowest
52:16
player in the league and Mets fans. That's
52:19
okay because it looks like he can hit
52:21
his missiles all over the field. But it
52:23
was it was tough to watch someone
52:25
move like that. When
52:28
did that happen? It
52:30
was post rain delay. So
52:39
the sixth inning. I
52:43
think so. Yes,
52:45
McNeil sack fly to right in the
52:47
sixth inning off of yoga. It
52:50
was very deep. Like it shouldn't
52:53
have looked like a competitive baseball play.
52:55
And in ways it didn't. I
53:00
don't know when McNeil did that. Six
53:05
inning off of yoga. No
53:07
one scored on that. Francisco Alvarez
53:10
scored. Oh,
53:15
it's my bad. On June 26 game where
53:17
McNeil also had a fly out in the
53:19
sixth inning. Yeah.
53:24
It is June 26. It
53:26
was June 26. Did
53:30
McNeil get up twice? Could
53:33
have. Could have. Could
53:38
have got up twice. So it would be
53:42
something. I
53:45
don't have it. Okay.
53:49
But maybe I'll find it. I'll just type
53:51
in Alvarez scores. Like
53:54
that. That'll pop up.
53:57
He scored on Tyrone Taylor's home run. Yep.
54:01
Don't think it's that play. Maybe
54:03
they deleted the video. It's a fifth inning.
54:06
Fifth inning. Also after
54:08
the delay. Yeah.
54:12
I'm just watching again. Yeah,
54:16
I stand by my visual that
54:18
it looks like he's running out
54:20
of the beach. He gets going
54:22
eventually. Which
54:24
I like for him. But the first steps
54:26
are very much... Stuck
54:30
in the deep sand. Send
54:33
it to Beebz. He can share it if
54:35
he wants. That's one of the memories of
54:37
my two memories award. It's
54:41
a deep, bright field. I mean, it's a couple
54:43
of steps before the warning track. And yeah, I
54:46
mean, there's three steps there where he goes
54:48
nowhere. It looks like
54:50
a high school kid running and then they begged
54:52
the coach after to please let me run that
54:55
again. Yeah,
54:59
it looks like the freshman training. Fresh. Yeah,
55:02
it's just wild. So that's a memory.
55:04
I can't. That was a
55:06
visual thing. The
55:09
other one goes to
55:11
Danny Young. That's his name.
55:15
He will remember that home run
55:17
judge hit off him forever. I
55:20
also sent this to you Beebz. And
55:23
S&Y had a good call about on this
55:25
home run because they're just like, that's crushed.
55:28
Just kind of ho hum. But
55:30
a lefty reliever that comes
55:33
from that open to the
55:35
left. Right. Growing that pitch.
55:39
I mean, kind of that's
55:41
that's the pitch that like I
55:44
think judge would hit that pitch for a home run nine
55:46
out of 10 times. Sincerely, which
55:48
is very hard to do. You don't hit batting practice
55:50
pitches nine and 10 times. But right that
55:53
arm slot an angle. Right.
55:55
That kind of knockoff sidearm slot
55:57
that just allows a. to see
55:59
it the whole way with almost
56:02
zero funk. Yeah. If
56:04
you, if you, if you slow it
56:06
down, Beams, exactly what Jake is saying
56:08
is why I think it's, it's not fully
56:10
sidearm and judge can see that ball for
56:12
so long. Cause he's, it's out the
56:14
whole way. It's not like behind his back
56:17
or hidden. So yeah,
56:19
that ball was rushed
56:24
and judges really good. Good series for judge.
56:28
Yeah. Good series for judge. Oh,
56:33
Lee. Tough to watch. The
56:37
games. Yeah. Pretty
56:39
sad. Really tough to watch.
56:43
Danny Young. Um, how
56:47
about this closing segment?
56:51
Can they do anything? Cause this
56:53
is a, no. Okay. All right.
56:56
Thanks everyone. Subscribe. Do you think they can? Not
56:59
really. Right? Like what's what button do you
57:01
press? There's no button to
57:04
press. It's it's play as Waldo over DJ
57:07
like play as Waldo more than DJ is the
57:10
own or like
57:12
as Waldo should be playing every
57:14
day and one of DJ and
57:16
Glaber should be sitting. I
57:21
don't know if that gets you
57:23
anywhere besides maybe an energy realignment
57:26
and like vibes
57:28
are as
57:31
well as a happy guy that's trying to
57:33
take like opportunity. But
57:35
until the trade deadline, there's nothing they can
57:38
do. The bench is completely tapped. They're
57:41
not like there's some crazy young
57:43
fans that I don't even
57:45
know if they watch podcast, especially this deep
57:47
into it, but they're on Twitter still saying
57:50
like Spencer Jones and another
57:53
prospect that's not close. So
57:56
that's all them up and it's like that's not going to happen
57:58
guys and they shouldn't do that. So there's
58:01
really no nothing to do besides go
58:03
find another like JD Davis if he
58:05
doesn't work out but
58:07
you're not gonna DFA DJ or glaber
58:09
or If
58:14
you open up if you open up the
58:16
lineup and it was something
58:19
new like judge leadoff Soto to or
58:21
if it was like they if they
58:23
do something like to try to Pretend
58:25
to spark the team like Verdugo leadoff.
58:27
I don't think any of this is
58:29
happening, but just kind of a pulse
58:31
check. I Would
58:34
I would have Soto and judge one
58:36
two? For
58:38
right now like when judge was chasing the home run
58:40
record They just moved in the lead off to get
58:42
him my live at bats I I
58:44
don't think Volpe in the leadoff spot makes sense
58:47
to me and If
58:49
he was a spark plug at
58:52
like the four hole in that four over the
58:54
five hole That
58:58
might add some length to the lineup Cuz
59:02
right now it's threefold
59:05
and Volpe
59:08
is not even really part of it He
59:10
doesn't use his speed when he's on base with
59:12
those guys nor can he use
59:14
his ability to get walks because pitchers
59:18
Don't throw him balls because Soto and
59:20
judge are behind him, right? so
59:23
it's not like Again,
59:26
I don't hate him being leadoff But to
59:28
me it just doesn't the skill sets that
59:31
he brings where like if Volpe can be
59:34
in the five hole Putting
59:38
the ball in play when runners are
59:40
on drawing walks to start something going
59:42
down there and then
59:44
stealing bags to make
59:46
things happen down there You
59:49
get a lot more of his tools into the game Then
59:53
right now he's not using his walk tool and he's
59:55
not using his run tool because Soto and judge are
59:57
behind him and he Doesn't need
59:59
those Yeah,
1:00:02
yeah, I am again.
1:00:05
I just want to clarify for the
1:00:07
people because we, you know, do believe
1:00:09
in lineup regularity, but I also when
1:00:11
things aren't working, you
1:00:13
can press buttons. But
1:00:15
yeah, I mean, if you really
1:00:17
want, you know, Volpe's lead off
1:00:20
numbers are not
1:00:22
great because he again
1:00:24
did a ton of his damage eight nine hole
1:00:26
to start the season when the Yanks were whole.
1:00:29
And I don't know if you can spark for
1:00:31
do go like that might be worth it. What
1:00:36
DJ lead off for two series. Okay.
1:00:40
Give him six games where he's
1:00:42
going to see fast balls in
1:00:44
the zone strikes. And
1:00:46
if that doesn't help him get to speed,
1:00:50
you've learned a lesson quicker and
1:00:52
faster and more
1:00:55
prominently than dealing around in
1:00:57
the nine all. Dilly,
1:01:00
dilly. Obviously,
1:01:03
I don't think it's like a winning games move,
1:01:05
but it's a find out what you got and
1:01:08
get him some pitches move. Either is doing what
1:01:10
we're doing right now, so you might as well
1:01:12
experiment. Yeah.
1:01:21
Well, yeah, there's nothing they can do besides the
1:01:23
deadline, which now they're desperate, which is a
1:01:26
bad place to be making moves
1:01:28
from the deadline. And
1:01:31
I keep reading all the athletic articles
1:01:33
and all the ESPN articles about like trade deadline
1:01:35
and who like Bowden just put
1:01:38
out is like we interviewed GMs
1:01:40
and executives to see who they think's going to get
1:01:42
moved. No infielders like
1:01:46
the like the prominent list features no
1:01:48
infielders that they say they actually think
1:01:50
they're going to get moved. Right.
1:01:53
It feels like very few guys that are
1:01:57
appearing on lists like that are
1:01:59
options for Yankees. I'll say
1:02:01
this someone in the chat just said Vlad. Oh,
1:02:04
I said Vlad watch. Um, anyone
1:02:09
that wears pinstripes I'll cheer for. Don't
1:02:13
go trade for Vlad. I
1:02:19
can't have that energy around. Probably
1:02:25
doesn't happen. I think you're good. Probably doesn't
1:02:27
happen. Covered. Cool.
1:02:31
Cool, cool, cool. So
1:02:36
Boston next Toronto.
1:02:38
Oh yeah, I knew that.
1:02:43
The turf Trent Grisham season
1:02:45
by by one of the hottest
1:02:47
on the team. What's
1:02:49
that? One of the hottest hitters on the team. Yep.
1:02:54
His approach is really fun to watch. Clean
1:02:57
up. Clean up Trent. Five
1:03:03
