Reach for rubber Fish. Thank you, rubber fish jumping up this 31 00:02:24.199 --> 00:02:31.800 Reach for it. Uh raiders l tough one last night. And I'm not 32 00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:40.800 saying I was calling something some world you know, revolutionizing thing, but I 33 00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:44.000 did kind of go I got a feel in churger's going to be just fine 34 00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:46.919 in the first inning and then it's going to hit a bump, and he 35 00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:51.280 hit a bomb. Did you make one hundred dollars? I received a venmo 36 00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:55.439 from one Ben Rogers last night that read, f you, Kevin, I 37 00:02:55.479 --> 00:03:00.680 will get you for this and sent me in my fifty dollars. Yeah, 38 00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:04.759 and then skin ohs you fifty two. Yes, we'll see if he pays 39 00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:07.120 up. And what were you betting? How onny innings shirts are left? 40 00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:10.159 So the over under Vegas over under on outs for back Schurzer last night was 41 00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:15.919 twelve and a half, So basically, could he go four and a third 42 00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:19.800 and he couldn't. Now he got twelve outs, so I was a little 43 00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:23.680 nervous. Yeah, but the problem with that is five runs scored, gave 44 00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:29.680 up a home run, and really you could just tell, like the command 45 00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:30.840 there was a two I think the one that jumps out she is O two 46 00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:35.479 to Jordan Alvarez, who's a monster, and he hit him in the back 47 00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:38.520 foot with it the rare backfoot pegging. You don't get that a lot. 48 00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:45.360 And they had a hurt loading the bases and scoring, and it's just tough 49 00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:49.439 and the Rangers' offense didn't get going until the fifth inning when Josh Young hit 50 00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:53.000 a two run home run, because Christian Hobvier was dealing pretty good, and 51 00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:58.240 I think the Rangers were no hit through four innings, so trouble, I'll 52 00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:00.520 say, mac Shuzer. What mack Schuser was doing last night, it was 53 00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:06.439 the fourth longest layoff of any player in postseason history. There were a couple 54 00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:12.439 other test cases. One of those test cases was a guy who was just 55 00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:15.199 filling in on the World Series roster because someone got hurt in Game one of 56 00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:19.439 the World Series. There are a couple others of pitchers who were just had 57 00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:23.439 no bleak injury, or there was another one was an arm injury, but 58 00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:28.279 some trying to come back after a seventy game layoff. Well, what mack 59 00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:33.000 Scherzer was doing was like unprecedented, a top five event in baseball history. 60 00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:38.600 The layoff that he had been on just doesn't happen. They probably wasn't ready. 61 00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:41.360 It's easy to say probably wasn't ready. I think Rangers were looking to 62 00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:44.600 see can we get three innings or four innings and keep them at one or 63 00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:47.000 two runs. But I thought, and you guys can tell me if you 64 00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:51.000 disagree or not. I thought the way Boachi managed the game after Suzer was 65 00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:55.040 out, Granted, you were down five to nothing, but some of the 66 00:04:55.079 --> 00:04:59.720 decisions that kept happening were We're gonna save as much of our bullpen as we 67 00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:02.199 can and in case we need him on back to back days on Thursday and 68 00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:08.000 Friday. I'm not saying Will Smith shouldn't get in the game. I think 69 00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:10.839 he was trying to get Alvarez out and that was the play there. But 70 00:05:10.959 --> 00:05:15.000 like Chris Stratton getting as much time as he did, kind of seeing what 71 00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:18.959 John Gray and Martin Prez have in a short roll late in the game, 72 00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:25.439 I thought Bochie was managing that game to preserve spores Chapman and Leclerk. Yeah, 73 00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:29.399 he spread. He spread the workload out amongst a lot of guys last 74 00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:34.360 night after Schureser exited. Uh, Stratton, man, I almost texted you 75 00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:38.759 guys last night. But you know, when you get down five to nothing, 76 00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:44.480 the way you watch a game changes. And the Rangers kept it seemed 77 00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:47.639 like every time they would start making a little bit of a push, making 78 00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:53.079 a little bit of a thread, and granted all due to Josh Young, 79 00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:58.360 the Astros would answer, just to kind of push them back down and make 80 00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:00.879 them realize no, not to guys, but man, I thought Stratton, 81 00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:04.839 I don't like I didn't like his strategy at all. Dude, that guy 82 00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:10.240 is a nibbler. He does not go after dudes at all. I mean, 83 00:06:10.279 --> 00:06:13.920 he's trying to nibble and nibble. And when when I think it was 84 00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:16.120 Smoltzi said oh, and he's got five pitches, I'm like, yeah, 85 00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:20.439 it's probably about two or three too many for this Astros team. Give me 86 00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:25.240 a guy that can throw two pitches effectively, that can locate them. I 87 00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:30.000 don't care. I don't care if we see him again. I don't think 88 00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:33.759 he is the pitcher to face that lineup at all. You know, seven 89 00:06:33.959 --> 00:06:41.600 to four, I think when this happened bottom of the fourth and there was 90 00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:46.120 a ball that was launched out into the left center field gap by a Doley 91 00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:51.560 Scarcia that would have scored a run for the Rangers, and Michael Brantley made 92 00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:55.959 a diving catch to end the inning. Yeah, man, if that goes 93 00:06:56.120 --> 00:06:59.959 it's seven five, A Doles is standing on second, the tying runs come 94 00:07:00.199 --> 00:07:02.759 up to the plate, who knows. You know, That's where it felt 95 00:07:02.839 --> 00:07:08.439 like something special might happen, and then Brandley made that catch and bummer, 96 00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:11.639 But you can't be mad at the first loss of the the playoffs. Are 97 00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:15.000 seven and one in the playoffs so far, like nothing to be mad about. 98 00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:17.160 Okay, did we all think they were going to just sweep their way 99 00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:21.040 through the whole month? I did not like these things happen. It's okay, 100 00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:25.720 and I didn't have a great feeling about last night, which anyone can 101 00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:28.720 say after the game. But just given what we knew what we were dealing 102 00:07:28.759 --> 00:07:32.639 with, we knew it was going to be a largely comprised bullpen game. 103 00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:39.360 And you still look as unlikely and fun and great as winning seven in a 104 00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:44.639 row to start your playoff run is. You still are who you are, 105 00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:49.399 and it's a team with a flawed bullpen. It's a team that is hot 106 00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:58.040 and cold offensively, and you're playing the reigning world champions that have done very 107 00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:03.120 little to nothing up to the point. So it was all aligned for last 108 00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:07.120 night's game to happen. It could have been a lot worse than it was. 109 00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:11.160 I'm surprised it wasn't a lot worse than it was, Yeah, because 110 00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:13.040 they did keep battling. Yeah, I mean they battled back a few times 111 00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:16.319 to get it into like all right, striking distance, yeah, like I'm 112 00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:20.480 not going to bed yet, range absolutely, you know, And then the 113 00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:26.399 damn astro just kept putting on Insurance, couldn't stop. Yeah, you know. 114 00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:28.519 It's just like you get that feeling that they're gonna keep getting one. 115 00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:31.120 It's what we've been doing to these other teams too, like every time they 116 00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:35.159 get one way, almost like a race it, you know, yeah, 117 00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:39.759 insurance, so whatever, kind of crazy to change everything you feel when you 118 00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:43.840 get behind, even like when it was at one run on the past or 119 00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:46.600 the wild pitch or the pass ball, I guess it was what they would 120 00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:50.639 call it. It was one not damn. That's the first time we've been 121 00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:56.799 losing in the series and feels like in the playoffs. But I turn around 122 00:08:56.799 --> 00:08:58.559 again tomorrow. I mean give them today. I don't. I'm not not 123 00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:03.159 paying it all man. It happens to me like every year when I stare 124 00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:07.600 at him. But the Altwove thing is pretty wild. That dude is five 125 00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:11.360 to six. I mean, it's such an odd outlier. He's so well 126 00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:16.480 like after he his damn home run high heat that he just smashes and when 127 00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:20.039 he goes back to the dugout and high fives everyone. You lose him in 128 00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:24.879 the dugout, like he's so tiny, and the fact that that dude five 129 00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:28.320 six, even imagine what you have to do coming up, you know, 130 00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:33.360 to prove yourself and everyone's got to look at you and think right like yeah, 131 00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:39.559 and then not only prove yourself to hit now twenty five postseason home runs 132 00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:43.720 to be in second place, four behind Manny Ramirez, who you look at 133 00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:48.879 and like, there's a ballplayer that is a that's a masher. I mean, 134 00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:52.000 there's a very good chance that al Twove, by the end of his 135 00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:54.320 career, is the all time leading postseason home run. Now, those numbers 136 00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:58.279 are a little skewed because there's a lot more postseason games than there used to 137 00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:01.200 be, I understand, But not only do you make it, not only 138 00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:07.600 do you excel, You're probably gonna be the all time smasher in postseason history 139 00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:11.279 and you're five to six. I had told uh Rocks last night we were 140 00:10:11.320 --> 00:10:15.559 watching the game, and I was like, that guy right there that they're 141 00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:20.679 interviewing right now in the dug up, he should be the most likable player 142 00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:26.080 in baseball, but he is not. Because of a the Astros be the 143 00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:33.759 controversy and see the unproven buzzer that he was wearing. Yet Astros Finzels who 144 00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.600 wears the proof. And I guess innocent until proven guilty. But you know, 145 00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:41.720 I don't know your Your actions do explain a lot. Yeah, and 146 00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:46.000 the face you make just say a lot too. You know you're just make 147 00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:50.679 an O face for no reason without owing. You know, he was definitely 148 00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:54.679 telling his teammates to stop grabbing at him whatever that was six years ago. 149 00:10:54.039 --> 00:10:56.879 He should be the most likable guy. Yeah, it's not like you didn't 150 00:10:56.919 --> 00:11:01.639 want them to not or to pull his not want him to them to pull 151 00:11:01.639 --> 00:11:05.559 his shirt off because he didn't want to expose his beer belly. Yeah, 152 00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:11.039 he's a pro athlete. Yeah, he's probably shred under there. And I 153 00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:16.519 feel like so it's like sixty three pitches for sureser, I feel like too 154 00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:20.759 many. We will see how he recovers, and the Smolt's at a good 155 00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:24.799 point as a pitcher who's jumped around too and pitched in every role in the 156 00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:31.399 playoffs starter or he's like how he recovers from this will determine which duh. 157 00:11:31.559 --> 00:11:39.360 But ideally he's available for eighty pitches next time, and maybe the command's a 158 00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:43.279 little bit better and you go through your normal routine instead of just pitching a 159 00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:46.360 sim game and going out there, you know, just because you wanted to 160 00:11:46.360 --> 00:11:54.480 pitch. With hindsight now that we have, would you have rather seen them 161 00:11:54.799 --> 00:12:01.039 cobble something together, maybe a two man starting rotation, not not rotation, 162 00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:05.919 but a strategy last night, and have sure as their workout of the pen, 163 00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:09.399 maybe a one inning situation. It is easy to second, yes it. 164 00:12:09.679 --> 00:12:13.399 Yeah, I didn't think that really. I thought about it, but 165 00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:18.919 I thought this is probably the best option considering just his history, that he's 166 00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:22.720 earned this and he it's probably the best spot for him is to start. 167 00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:26.320 But you know, I guess if you're gonna get if you're going to put 168 00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:31.919 him out there in the first inning, he hasn't pitched in so long that 169 00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:37.840 I don't think you give him enough leash to allow him to work himself out 170 00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:41.440 of trouble. Yeah, that's the only thing that I would have done differently 171 00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:46.399 is maybe yanked him a little bit earlier than they did and maybe had somebody 172 00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:48.799 I don't know if they did. They didn't really show the bullpen early on 173 00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:52.639 in the game. But I don't know if somebody was ready to go at 174 00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:56.159 the beginning, because I think he could have gone out there and thrown one 175 00:12:56.200 --> 00:13:00.440 pitch and tweaked his arm and then what do you do? You know, 176 00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:03.080 I'm sure if it's an injury, you get all the time you want to 177 00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:07.279 prepare your your reliever to come in. But I don't think you wait for 178 00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:09.639 that. I think that you look at what's happening and say, oh my 179 00:13:09.759 --> 00:13:13.759 god, this his slider sucked. Given that this slider was absolutely terrible and 180 00:13:13.799 --> 00:13:18.720 he has to have that pitch. His velocity was fine, location wasn't great. 181 00:13:18.759 --> 00:13:24.080 He was very, very lucky to get the inside uh the inside corner 182 00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:30.200 called for right handed batters. That happened about five times where it was clearly 183 00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:33.559 a ball, and he got the call just basically because the right handed batters 184 00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:37.639 were kind of crowding the plate a little bit. But those those should have 185 00:13:37.639 --> 00:13:41.600 been balls. His location was not great, velocity was good, location was 186 00:13:41.679 --> 00:13:45.080 eh, and his slider sucked. That should have been seen early on. 187 00:13:45.279 --> 00:13:48.399 Somebody should have been warmed up and ready to go, and maybe you don't 188 00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:52.120 give up five runs. That's my hunt that early. My hunch is that 189 00:13:52.519 --> 00:13:58.039 Martin Perez would have been the guy because he let Martine pitch yesterday and my 190 00:13:58.159 --> 00:14:03.679 hunch is that would have been the play if it was tight game and so, 191 00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:07.679 and because sures are actually four instead of two, he might've been making 192 00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:09.039 on two innings or three innings. Who knows what Buchi was thinking. I 193 00:14:09.080 --> 00:14:13.039 don't know, but like he didn't get to that pitch count of seventy that 194 00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:16.159 he had hit in the sim game. I mean, so if he was 195 00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:20.039 effective, he might have been able to go out and get that thirteenth out 196 00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:22.360 and I would be out one hundred bucks. But the Heini Dunning thing, 197 00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:26.879 because that worked clearly there. That was their plan for this small sensu on 198 00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:30.519 the Bark broadcast that I disagree with. He goes, you can't just rely 199 00:14:30.600 --> 00:14:33.000 on Jordan Montgomery and Evaldi to get your your wins. I'm like, you 200 00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:37.200 actually can. You can do one two punch. I've seen it with your 201 00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:41.559 Braves teams before, where the Maddison Glavin will handle it. But that's also 202 00:14:41.919 --> 00:14:46.399 you know, expecting and almost kind of guaranteeing to yourself that win. Those 203 00:14:46.399 --> 00:14:50.759 guys pitch that you're going to win, and that's that's unrealistic, man, 204 00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:56.159 absolutely, but Games Game seven would be mac suser if we go there. 205 00:14:56.440 --> 00:15:00.120 That's and there's no that's just what you do. I wonder how he he's 206 00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:03.080 feeling today, had thirty nine year old body's feeling today? After I heard 207 00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:07.279 audio post to doing that, He's he's like, I know my body, 208 00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:11.919 I'm good. As he's chugging a red Bull, He's like, I feel 209 00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:16.159 good. He's like, I know how I'll feel tomorrow and this it's normal. 210 00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:18.960 So that's good, you know. As far as his body's reaction to 211 00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:22.639 the rushback, I also thought, I don't know if it was the altwo 212 00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:26.240 Va home run, but like we discussed this and the pitch come the strategy. 213 00:15:26.360 --> 00:15:28.240 I mean, the one thing I'm more confident than anything is that we 214 00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:33.600 got Bochie on this, you know, like us kicking around options, who 215 00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:37.080 gives a damn. He's on top of this. And it was the alto 216 00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:41.840 Vay home run I think where they cut to Bochi and he glanced real quick 217 00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:45.919 and knew it was gone, and then he locked back in at cherser. 218 00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:50.480 I mean he was staring at yourser to see his reaction, his physical reaction 219 00:15:50.600 --> 00:15:54.759 to this, to check in on him. To make those decisions, whether 220 00:15:54.759 --> 00:15:56.519 it be to warm somebody up or whatever. I mean, that's all the 221 00:15:56.600 --> 00:16:03.080 dude is thinking about. And he's Bruce Effnbo like he's going to maximize what 222 00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:07.120 the right thing to do is. Like we're good and he was on top 223 00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:10.759 of it. So whatever decision he made, in no position to question it, 224 00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:12.960 you know well, and also like just knowing that la Clerk Chapman and 225 00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:17.200 sports probably can't go three days in a row for them to not pitch last 226 00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:18.639 night, there's a positive that we should look at. Yes, you know, 227 00:16:19.159 --> 00:16:22.080 it's weird to be talking positively about the Ragers bullpen, but you have 228 00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:26.320 to. With those guys right now, and your best two starters and your 229 00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:30.679 entire bullpen that you've used all postseason. They were all just sitting there, 230 00:16:30.759 --> 00:16:34.120 all fresh, and Houston had to use all of their arms last night. 231 00:16:34.200 --> 00:16:38.000 They used their their three set up in nearest bray you and Presley, they 232 00:16:38.039 --> 00:16:44.039 did and they burned them. Did you know Danny that Ryan Presley? Do 233 00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:48.720 you know anything about him? Uh? Not outside of what they you know, 234 00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:52.440 the mini bio they gave him last night. He is a massive fan 235 00:16:52.679 --> 00:16:59.399 of you and me. What do you mean he's a big listener of our 236 00:16:59.480 --> 00:17:03.600 former state show. Are you serious? Really? Yes, massive, he's 237 00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:04.880 from here. I mean at least as of years ago. Hell, maybe 238 00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:11.799 he's jumped on board of ninety seven one the ft said idiot doing Kevin just 239 00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:18.000 passed out that idiot do it? Yeah, him and his wife came up 240 00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:19.880 to the studio and I met him a couple of years ago. Okay, 241 00:17:19.880 --> 00:17:25.880 Shockingly, his wife is absolutely beautiful. No way, club and smart and 242 00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:29.839 fundy. Get a hot girl. Yeah, he throws fast, but he 243 00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:34.599 would smile if he heard the name Danny Bayliss. Wow, that's weird. 244 00:17:34.759 --> 00:17:37.640 Yeah. Where is he from here? Yeah? Okay, I mean, 245 00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:41.400 look, I know who wouldn't be a fan of a guy who was just 246 00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:45.440 featured in People Magazine and the Dallas Observer radio host of the Year. Yeah. 247 00:17:45.640 --> 00:17:51.079 Yeah, he's also a huge People Magazine subscriber of course. Yeah. 248 00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:55.480 Born Dallas, Texas. I'll be damn you know what. I raised an 249 00:17:55.480 --> 00:18:03.640 Irving Uh, I'm looking, I don't know, American Heritage Academy and Carrollton 250 00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:06.319 for the first three years of high school. So yeah, he's a he's 251 00:18:06.319 --> 00:18:10.079 a local. Oh and then he transferred to uh Marcus High School in Flower 252 00:18:10.119 --> 00:18:15.200 Mountain, his huge klepto, what he steals things. He's mad. He's 253 00:18:15.240 --> 00:18:21.400 not a fan of your he's just making up Ryan Presley. I worked there 254 00:18:21.440 --> 00:18:25.799 too, sort of anyway. I always think that when he rolls out, 255 00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:27.599 and I actually like him obviously because of that. And he was a sweetheart 256 00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:33.119 meeting him like he was. He's a reliever in Major League Baseball. He's 257 00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:36.680 done a lot save last night, dude. Yes, And but when he 258 00:18:36.720 --> 00:18:37.599 was up at the studio, he was like, oh my god, he's 259 00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:41.119 wide eyed. It's just weird to see. So it's awesome. Definitely cheer 260 00:18:41.160 --> 00:18:45.279 for Ryan Presley, but not not this week. Well let's call him. 261 00:18:45.359 --> 00:18:51.680 I think he's busy. He's busy. Do you think Dusty Baker would be 262 00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:55.000 mad if he found out that Ryan Presley did an interview with the freak? 263 00:18:55.359 --> 00:19:00.319 He came up in studio in Dallas. I don't have his number enough Astro 264 00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:04.559 seven and one at Global I Field this season, we've all been really drunk 265 00:19:04.599 --> 00:19:11.559 on Evan Carter. Yeah, we should give rookie Josh Young a little love, 266 00:19:11.680 --> 00:19:14.880 dude, crushing two home runs. You're right, And you know what 267 00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:18.440 else we should give more love to Tavaris. Oh my god, who's twenty 268 00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:21.920 five, and you just kind of put him on the back burner of like, 269 00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:26.680 dudes, you're excited about But holy hell, that catch was incredible. 270 00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:30.480 That cat's amazing and he's, you know, in the series, done some 271 00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:33.799 damage with the bat as well. I don't like using the term effortless to 272 00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:40.559 people that are elite, because they definitely put a lot of effort into being 273 00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:45.559 being able to do what they do. But it just that catch was so 274 00:19:45.759 --> 00:19:49.440 smooth. Yeah, yeah, it took There wasn't a lot of unnecessary motion, 275 00:19:49.559 --> 00:19:52.720 and it's like he knew exactly what he was doing, had had a 276 00:19:52.759 --> 00:19:59.759 plan and executed the plan and holds the ball up. And you can't say 277 00:19:59.839 --> 00:20:03.440 enough, man about our defense, You really really can't. Outside of that 278 00:20:03.519 --> 00:20:08.279 one, Josh Young err the other night where he you know, any anybody 279 00:20:08.279 --> 00:20:12.039 would have misjudged that he had his glove where he thought that ball was gonna 280 00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:15.000 go and it took a bad hop in one underneath it. But dude, 281 00:20:15.240 --> 00:20:21.000 how about the seager deep in the hole, uh catch to flip to get 282 00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:26.160 the forcet third last night, that was that was almost as incredible as the 283 00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:30.400 Tavares over the fence catch. It shocked Josh Young. He was even ready 284 00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:33.559 almost like he was on he was over there, wasn't on third base ready 285 00:20:33.559 --> 00:20:37.839 to get the ball yet. But we've seen Ranger teams where pretty much, 286 00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:44.839 especially in the playoffs, there's routine plays that just kind of become white knuckle 287 00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:51.359 moments and just everything that they execute. I mean between uh Seeger and simeon 288 00:20:51.680 --> 00:20:56.039 the middle infield plays you just feel so good about. Uh, it's just 289 00:20:56.079 --> 00:21:00.160 such an asset. You know, a pitcher's got to take the mount for 290 00:21:00.200 --> 00:21:03.160 the Rangers and just look behind them and go, I think I'm good. 291 00:21:03.279 --> 00:21:07.119 Yeah, I can't imagine having a better eight dudes behind me to take some 292 00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:11.400 chances here. Yeah, they're so good at defense. Man, they were 293 00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:15.839 never they were never gonna sweep through the playoffs. No, And they used 294 00:21:15.839 --> 00:21:22.200 a question mark pitcher the starter. They didn't touch their primary bullpen and they 295 00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:26.200 they hung in there. Yeah, they battled back a couple of times. 296 00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:29.480 Like I said, if that insurance doesn't come in, we had a real 297 00:21:29.559 --> 00:21:32.559 tight one late in this thing, and who knows and looked they are good. 298 00:21:32.759 --> 00:21:37.400 They and they also ran into a playoff pitching juggernaut last night. That 299 00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:42.599 was just flawless through half the game. Were you guys not thinking, Okay, 300 00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:45.680 we're def we're gonna get no hit. I mean, there's a reason 301 00:21:45.680 --> 00:21:48.200 I think it Obviously you made it through through four innings. I think. 302 00:21:48.480 --> 00:21:52.680 Hm. But good lord, that dude was I mean they kept talking about 303 00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:57.359 it real calm, real cool and got a hell of a pedigree and track 304 00:21:57.400 --> 00:22:00.599 record of postseason success. But yeah, Christian hof is a stud. And 305 00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:03.839 don't you feel the top of the lineups kind of do a breakout? Yeah? 306 00:22:03.839 --> 00:22:07.000 Oh yeah, we need Singer and Simeon to both start hitting the balls. 307 00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:11.039 Yeah, the guys you've counted on and maybe taking for granted a little 308 00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:15.240 bit about how often they never go into slumps. It's Simeon specifically. Yeah, 309 00:22:15.319 --> 00:22:18.519 he's about in one seventy one. Yeah. In the post, little 310 00:22:18.559 --> 00:22:22.720 more, little more there, and it's gonna come. Jose, you queerity, 311 00:22:22.000 --> 00:22:29.759 your your your queedie, you're quitty er erkid, and there's the pronunciation 312 00:22:30.079 --> 00:22:33.759 erkity. Jose erkety is your picture to night in the he pitched the game 313 00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:37.880 for Cuncher for them against the Twins. What five and two thirds give up 314 00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:41.279 two runs? Decent pitcher, decent pitcher and he'll go up against heen Dog, 315 00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:44.920 the guy responsible for creed. Will Scott Stapp join us at nine oh 316 00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:49.759 five in the works hearing that he'll find out he's asleep. Oh, he's 317 00:22:49.759 --> 00:22:52.039 asleep. Then that's why he has to do it at nine because he said 318 00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:56.039 he'd be up later. Uh. Mystery celebrity guests coming on at eight o'clock 319 00:22:56.079 --> 00:23:00.359 as well. For picks with Glenn's, you can call him at two and 320 00:23:00.480 --> 00:23:02.759 four or eight one seven seven, eight seven one, ninety seven to one 321 00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:07.160 and predict two NFL games against the spread with us. The celebrities are running 322 00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:10.519 away with it, Glenn's, we need you to have a big week. 323 00:23:10.839 --> 00:23:15.480 But coming up next something the NFL is afraid of, and it has nothing 324 00:23:15.480 --> 00:23:18.440 to do with sports, and it does involve the potential loss of life. 325 00:23:18.720 --> 00:23:22.119 The NFL is terrified of this. I'll tell you what it is. Next 326 00:23:22.160 --> 00:23:22.200 to ninety seven one to free.
