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

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
