<v Speaker 1>Guardians Weekly is brought to you by Progressive helping Guardians

00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:05.519
<v Speaker 2>Hi, everyone, welcome to Guardians' Weekly. Shimros in house along

5
00:01:05.560 --> 00:01:09.200
<v Speaker 2>with you as it's another of our hot stove shows,

6
00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:12.079
<v Speaker 2>and man do we need that. If you're listening to

7
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:14.439
<v Speaker 2>this show in Northeast Ohio, you know it has been

8
00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:18.879
<v Speaker 2>a rough week weatherwise with sub zero temperatures, but hopefully

9
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:21.120
<v Speaker 2>some baseball talk on the radio warms you up. And

10
00:01:21.159 --> 00:01:26.040
<v Speaker 2>we are not far from spring training. Beginning. February eleventh

11
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:29.079
<v Speaker 2>is the day that pitchers and catchers report, the seventeenth

12
00:01:29.159 --> 00:01:32.239
<v Speaker 2>the full squad reports, and the eighteenth is the first

13
00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:36.359
<v Speaker 2>full squad workout, with the first game action on the

14
00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:40.439
<v Speaker 2>twenty second against the Reds, So it's coming quickly. Most players,

15
00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:42.680
<v Speaker 2>or at least a lot of them, are out in

16
00:01:42.760 --> 00:01:46.000
<v Speaker 2>goodyear already. Great show lined up for you today and

17
00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:48.840
<v Speaker 2>just a little bit we will hear from Shane Bieber

18
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:51.439
<v Speaker 2>had a chance to visit with Shane earlier this week

19
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:54.640
<v Speaker 2>after he signed a contract to remain in Cleveland this

20
00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:57.680
<v Speaker 2>past December, a one year deal with a player option

21
00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:02.079
<v Speaker 2>for twenty twenty six, and a lot of good reasons why,

22
00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:05.200
<v Speaker 2>and he'll outline those as we hear from Shane in

23
00:02:05.359 --> 00:02:08.560
<v Speaker 2>just a little bit. And after our break, hope you

24
00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:10.360
<v Speaker 2>can stay with us for the second half of the

25
00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:14.479
<v Speaker 2>show as Paul Hoyins will join us. The Hall of

26
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:16.759
<v Speaker 2>Fame voting wrapped up this week and the Hall of

27
00:02:16.759 --> 00:02:21.719
<v Speaker 2>Fame inductees were announced on Tuesday. See see Sabbathia, the

28
00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:24.919
<v Speaker 2>former Cleveland Indian he'll be going in along with each

29
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:28.800
<v Speaker 2>he Row, the unbelievable hitter who came over from Japan

30
00:02:28.840 --> 00:02:31.560
<v Speaker 2>and took Major League Baseball by storm, and one of

31
00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:34.879
<v Speaker 2>the top closers of his day, Billy Wagner, all making

32
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:38.840
<v Speaker 2>it in and always interesting to get Hoyinsey's perspective on that.

33
00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:42.000
<v Speaker 2>He's a longtime writer for the Cleveland Plaindealer in Cleveland

34
00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:46.639
<v Speaker 2>dot com and always has a pretty balanced opinion on

35
00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:49.039
<v Speaker 2>who should and who shouldn't go in. And we'll talk

36
00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:51.199
<v Speaker 2>to him about the ten players that he voted for

37
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:53.400
<v Speaker 2>the three that go in. All kinds of good stuff

38
00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:56.280
<v Speaker 2>coming up from Paul Hoyins after our break in the

39
00:02:56.319 --> 00:03:00.039
<v Speaker 2>second half of our show, But first some news. The

40
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:03.159
<v Speaker 2>notes for the Guardians a nice acquisition earlier this week.

41
00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:06.439
<v Speaker 2>The bullpen was such a key a year ago, and

42
00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:09.199
<v Speaker 2>they have lost a couple of members of that bullpen

43
00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:12.280
<v Speaker 2>due to trades to other ball clubs in Nick Sandlin

44
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.919
<v Speaker 2>and Eli Morgan, so depth wise are looking to replenish that.

45
00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:18.879
<v Speaker 2>Trevor Stephen should return to the ball club at some

46
00:03:18.960 --> 00:03:22.000
<v Speaker 2>point on his way back from Tommy John surgery, and

47
00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:26.719
<v Speaker 2>earlier this week, the Guardian signed free agent reliever Paul Seewald,

48
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:29.080
<v Speaker 2>who has had a fine career with a couple of

49
00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:32.719
<v Speaker 2>different clubs, and most recently, his top work came with

50
00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:36.199
<v Speaker 2>Arizona back in twenty twenty three when the Diamondbacks made

51
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:39.400
<v Speaker 2>that great run to the World Series and gave Texas

52
00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:42.759
<v Speaker 2>all it could handle. Seawald was a trade deadline acquisition,

53
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:46.199
<v Speaker 2>ended up saving six games in the postseason for Arizona

54
00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:49.240
<v Speaker 2>and was a huge, huge key for that ball club.

55
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:51.639
<v Speaker 2>He's thirty four years of age now, so he'll provide

56
00:03:51.960 --> 00:03:54.639
<v Speaker 2>some good experience in the back end of that bullpen

57
00:03:54.680 --> 00:03:57.960
<v Speaker 2>and certainly help out a Manuel class A with some

58
00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:01.639
<v Speaker 2>closing opportunities you figure on the days where class is down.

59
00:04:01.719 --> 00:04:05.199
<v Speaker 2>Seawald has been a reliever throughout his career, first with

60
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:08.360
<v Speaker 2>the Mets, and then he moved on to Seattle where

61
00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:11.599
<v Speaker 2>he established himself as a pretty good closer thirty four

62
00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:14.400
<v Speaker 2>saves back in that twenty three season. Last year, some

63
00:04:14.439 --> 00:04:16.959
<v Speaker 2>injuries set him back a little bit, limited to forty

64
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:19.439
<v Speaker 2>two games, so he'll be looking to bounce back from that.

65
00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:23.959
<v Speaker 2>But the Guardian's looking forward to having Paul Seawald in

66
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:26.759
<v Speaker 2>the fold as they head in to spring training, and

67
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:30.480
<v Speaker 2>they are also looking forward to seeing Shane Bieber back

68
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:32.519
<v Speaker 2>with the ball club. He won't be ready in spring

69
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:37.000
<v Speaker 2>training as his Tommy John surgery rest and rehab still

70
00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:38.839
<v Speaker 2>has a ways to go. I think it's safe to

71
00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:42.000
<v Speaker 2>say probably around mid season. He'll let us know here shortly.

72
00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:45.279
<v Speaker 2>But just what are you getting with Bieber? Obviously the

73
00:04:45.319 --> 00:04:48.800
<v Speaker 2>Guardians a crown jewel in their development system for pitching.

74
00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:52.199
<v Speaker 2>He's now twenty nine years of age and he's sixty

75
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:55.279
<v Speaker 2>two and thirty two in one hundred and thirty four

76
00:04:55.639 --> 00:04:58.360
<v Speaker 2>major league starts with an ERA of three point two

77
00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:01.879
<v Speaker 2>to two. Last year halted after just two brilliant starts

78
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:04.879
<v Speaker 2>when he worked twelve innings and allowed no runs, but

79
00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:07.399
<v Speaker 2>then the elbow blew out on him and that was

80
00:05:07.399 --> 00:05:09.720
<v Speaker 2>it he had the Tommy John surgery in April. The

81
00:05:09.800 --> 00:05:12.920
<v Speaker 2>high water mark for Bieber the cy young season back

82
00:05:12.920 --> 00:05:15.120
<v Speaker 2>in twenty twenty when he was eight and one in

83
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:18.680
<v Speaker 2>the COVID shortened season, but a remarkable ERA of one

84
00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:21.959
<v Speaker 2>point sixty three as he won Major League Baseball's Triple

85
00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:25.879
<v Speaker 2>Crown with wins, ERA and strikeouts leading the way in

86
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:28.360
<v Speaker 2>all of those categories in the Big leagues. Made the

87
00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:30.439
<v Speaker 2>All Star team in twenty nineteen and it was here

88
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.120
<v Speaker 2>in Cleveland, and won the Most Valuable Player award as

89
00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:35.800
<v Speaker 2>he struck out the side in his only inning of work.

90
00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:40.360
<v Speaker 2>And he will provide again more steadying influence in that clubhouse.

91
00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:42.600
<v Speaker 2>And when we come back, we'll hear from Shane Bieber.

92
00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:45.279
<v Speaker 2>Great to catch up with him his interview next on

93
00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:47.600
<v Speaker 2>the Cleveland Clinic Guardians Radio Network.

94
00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:56.120
<v Speaker 3>Drivers A switch and save with Progressive could save hundreds.

95
00:05:56.199 --> 00:05:58.519
<v Speaker 3>With that kind of money, you could go bait tide

96
00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:01.480
<v Speaker 3>and skip the regular line at the airport him pay

97
00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:05.519
<v Speaker 3>for speedy security. Imagine not having to quickly unpack and

98
00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:07.759
<v Speaker 3>pack at the place you already came back to and

99
00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:10.519
<v Speaker 3>wearing your shoes the whole time you're there. You can't

100
00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:13.040
<v Speaker 3>put a price on that kind of luxury. Well, actually

101
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:15.720
<v Speaker 3>you can, and you paid for it. Switched to Progressive

102
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:20.439
<v Speaker 3>and you could save big time for speedy security. Progressive

<v Speaker 4>Guardian's pitcher, and it's great to be able to say

110
00:06:56.279 --> 00:06:59.720
<v Speaker 4>that again. Shane Bieber back in the fold after signing

111
00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:02.879
<v Speaker 4>a on track this past December, and he will complete

112
00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:05.879
<v Speaker 4>his rehab with Cleveland and hopefully be ready at some

113
00:07:05.959 --> 00:07:09.160
<v Speaker 4>point in time this season. And Shane, great to have

114
00:07:09.240 --> 00:07:11.360
<v Speaker 4>you on and great to know that you're back in

115
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:12.360
<v Speaker 4>a Cleveland uniform.

116
00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:13.279
<v Speaker 5>Thanks Rosie.

117
00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:17.120
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, likewise, my family and I are extremely excited to

118
00:07:17.160 --> 00:07:19.000
<v Speaker 6>just stay in Cleveland and to see this out. And

119
00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:21.720
<v Speaker 6>there's a lot of unfinished business and yeah, I will

120
00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:24.399
<v Speaker 6>be ready and I will be ready to rock as

121
00:07:24.439 --> 00:07:26.639
<v Speaker 6>soon as possible and help contribute on the field.

122
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:27.279
<v Speaker 5>I can't wait for that.

123
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:28.160
<v Speaker 7>All.

124
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:31.240
<v Speaker 2>Right, Before we get to the semi important stuff, the

125
00:07:31.279 --> 00:07:36.240
<v Speaker 2>really important stuff. When is the young Bieber gonna hit

126
00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:38.480
<v Speaker 2>the world. How's that going with you and Karen?

127
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:43.079
<v Speaker 6>I appreciate that preface. Yeah, perspectives are changing very quickly but.

128
00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:47.040
<v Speaker 5>Very soon. My wife Kara, she's.

129
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:51.079
<v Speaker 6>Putting on an absolute clinic and she's doing fantastic in

130
00:07:51.079 --> 00:07:55.160
<v Speaker 6>her pregnancy. She's absolutely glowing and showing her beauty inside out.

131
00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:58.800
<v Speaker 6>So we're enjoying this process in this time, especially right

132
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:02.839
<v Speaker 6>before training in the season starts and things get hectic

133
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:05.600
<v Speaker 6>on I guess a bunch of different levels, like like

134
00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:06.800
<v Speaker 6>you kind of mentioned.

135
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:11.279
<v Speaker 2>Well, certainly great news and hopefully everything continues to progress nicely.

136
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:14.319
<v Speaker 2>And when you talk about progress, obviously you're coming back

137
00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:17.879
<v Speaker 2>from Tommy John surgery. Where are you in that process

138
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.759
<v Speaker 2>now and what are some of the next steps that

139
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:21.560
<v Speaker 2>you look forward to.

140
00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:25.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, great question. I'm out to one hundred and twenty feet.

141
00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:27.879
<v Speaker 6>I'm in a couple of weeks of throwing at one

142
00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:32.000
<v Speaker 6>hundred and twenty feet and relatively high intensity. I'm building

143
00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:36.320
<v Speaker 6>volume and intensity week by week, and I'm feeling really good, Rosie,

144
00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:41.360
<v Speaker 6>really encouraged with my progress and how steady everything's been.

145
00:08:42.519 --> 00:08:45.200
<v Speaker 6>I'm really just trying to do this as best as

146
00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:49.080
<v Speaker 6>I possibly can, leave no stone unturned, and you know,

147
00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:50.480
<v Speaker 6>I want to do this once, and I want to

148
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:52.919
<v Speaker 6>do this right, and you know, get back as soon

149
00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:56.080
<v Speaker 6>as possible and be as strong as I possibly can

150
00:08:56.200 --> 00:08:58.840
<v Speaker 6>when I do get back on that big league mount.

151
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:01.360
<v Speaker 6>So you know, I'm just trying to put one foot

152
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:03.440
<v Speaker 6>in front of the other, and like I said, I'm

153
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:07.320
<v Speaker 6>I'm I'm stretching out my catch play and hopefully i'll

154
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:09.720
<v Speaker 6>touch around here soon. I'm learning a lot about myself

155
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:11.200
<v Speaker 6>and just this process in general.

156
00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:12.519
<v Speaker 5>It's you know, it's a.

157
00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:15.639
<v Speaker 6>Whole new elbow, a whole new ligament that's getting activated

158
00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:19.480
<v Speaker 6>to an unnatural motion of throwing right. And my I

159
00:09:19.480 --> 00:09:22.960
<v Speaker 6>guess my old ligament had you know, twenty plus years

160
00:09:22.960 --> 00:09:26.840
<v Speaker 6>to do that. And so we're expediting this one in

161
00:09:27.879 --> 00:09:30.440
<v Speaker 6>in twelve months or whatever it may be. And so

162
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:34.000
<v Speaker 6>I'm just enjoying the process. Everything's going extremely well, and

163
00:09:34.200 --> 00:09:35.720
<v Speaker 6>I'm happy to share that.

164
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:41.399
<v Speaker 2>Hey, that old one serves you really well, by the way. Yeah, Yeah.

165
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:44.759
<v Speaker 2>Shane Bieber joining us back with with Cleveland and Shane

166
00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:48.679
<v Speaker 2>talk about that process. What what when you look deep

167
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:52.279
<v Speaker 2>into it, what was the determining factor to have you

168
00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:53.440
<v Speaker 2>re sign with Cleveland.

169
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:56.120
<v Speaker 6>There's so many Rosie, I can't narrow it down to

170
00:09:56.279 --> 00:10:01.399
<v Speaker 6>just one. You know, there's a, uh, I guess in

171
00:10:01.399 --> 00:10:05.799
<v Speaker 6>a sense, a lot of intangibles that came signing with Cleveland.

172
00:10:06.200 --> 00:10:10.480
<v Speaker 6>The familiarity, the comfortability, the love for the community and

173
00:10:10.519 --> 00:10:13.759
<v Speaker 6>the fans, and the love received from the community and

174
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:17.759
<v Speaker 6>the fans and the organization and the people that really

175
00:10:17.759 --> 00:10:20.039
<v Speaker 6>make it go. It goes a long way. And my

176
00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:23.480
<v Speaker 6>wife and I really felt that since the moment we

177
00:10:23.639 --> 00:10:28.080
<v Speaker 6>stepped foot into progressive field and so just to have

178
00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:33.159
<v Speaker 6>those relationships both in the clubhouse, uh, in the media room,

179
00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:36.200
<v Speaker 6>in the locker room, on the field, in the training room,

180
00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:39.000
<v Speaker 6>and uh and with the coaching staff, I think it

181
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:41.399
<v Speaker 6>goes a long way. Especially the position that I'm in

182
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:45.440
<v Speaker 6>right now, rehabbing from from Tommy John and you know,

183
00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:46.440
<v Speaker 6>hoping to be back.

184
00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:49.200
<v Speaker 5>In the in the you know, middle of the season.

185
00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:53.679
<v Speaker 6>And UH, it's just like I said, a lot of intangibles,

186
00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:58.399
<v Speaker 6>and we're just extatic to have that opportunity and to

187
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:02.600
<v Speaker 6>receive that vote of confidence from you know, Cleveland and

188
00:11:02.600 --> 00:11:04.559
<v Speaker 6>they know where I'm at in my rehab process, and

189
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:07.679
<v Speaker 6>you know, I didn't want to I didn't want to

190
00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:10.080
<v Speaker 6>go anywhere else, so we're very happy to be coming back.

191
00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:13.120
<v Speaker 2>When you look back at last year, and I know,

192
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:16.440
<v Speaker 2>just having visited with you during the season when you

193
00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:20.600
<v Speaker 2>came to town, you seem to just be looking forward

194
00:11:20.679 --> 00:11:24.679
<v Speaker 2>and trying to take those next steps. But was there

195
00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:27.399
<v Speaker 2>that point in time early on, especially with the start

196
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:31.200
<v Speaker 2>that you had, where you just kind of thought out, Wow,

197
00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:35.080
<v Speaker 2>what could have been both personally and team wise too?

198
00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:36.360
<v Speaker 6>Yeah?

199
00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:39.879
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely, Gusie. The question is just it was a gutshot.

200
00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:43.840
<v Speaker 6>It really was, and it took a while for me

201
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:46.080
<v Speaker 6>to go through those emotions and try and process it,

202
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:49.279
<v Speaker 6>you know, healthily and correctly. And you know, I was

203
00:11:49.320 --> 00:11:51.799
<v Speaker 6>able to do that relatively quick, but didn't want to

204
00:11:51.799 --> 00:11:55.440
<v Speaker 6>force anything, and it was really difficult. And part of

205
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:57.360
<v Speaker 6>what made it difficult is kind of the success that

206
00:11:57.399 --> 00:12:00.600
<v Speaker 6>I was able to pitch with even with elbow, And

207
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:03.919
<v Speaker 6>ultimately it was it was pretty obvious when we got

208
00:12:03.960 --> 00:12:07.559
<v Speaker 6>the MRI and and spoke with you know, Cleveland's experts

209
00:12:07.559 --> 00:12:10.480
<v Speaker 6>and external experts and my surgeon who ended up doing it,

210
00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:15.039
<v Speaker 6>and doctor Keith Meister that you know, we had to

211
00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:18.559
<v Speaker 6>address this surgically, so it was really, uh, it was

212
00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:19.200
<v Speaker 6>a tough man.

213
00:12:19.320 --> 00:12:22.360
<v Speaker 5>It was really tough having felt.

214
00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:25.120
<v Speaker 6>So good in the offseason, and I thought I was past,

215
00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:28.399
<v Speaker 6>you know, any arm or elbow troubles, and unfortunately I

216
00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:30.279
<v Speaker 6>just wasn't. And it was a little bit inevitable, so

217
00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:32.279
<v Speaker 6>to speak. So I had to address it surgically, like

218
00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:37.039
<v Speaker 6>I said, And it was a gut shot. But all things,

219
00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:40.120
<v Speaker 6>I'm a believer that you know, things happen for a

220
00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:41.559
<v Speaker 6>reason and.

221
00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:43.480
<v Speaker 5>And uh, and there's a path for for everything.

222
00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:45.639
<v Speaker 6>And I really do feel like I've grown a lot

223
00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:49.440
<v Speaker 6>from this, both you know, professionally and personally, and so

224
00:12:50.279 --> 00:12:53.799
<v Speaker 6>I'm I'm excited to to get back on the mound

225
00:12:54.399 --> 00:12:56.399
<v Speaker 6>when the time is right, and and to help this

226
00:12:56.440 --> 00:12:59.639
<v Speaker 6>team win and uh for a playoff push and and

227
00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:01.679
<v Speaker 6>to and to mow down in the playoffs too.

228
00:13:02.360 --> 00:13:04.519
<v Speaker 2>And they had a playoff bush a year ago and

229
00:13:04.519 --> 00:13:08.960
<v Speaker 2>and just a wonderful season. You were around several different times,

230
00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:13.200
<v Speaker 2>especially during the postseason. How important was that for you

231
00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:15.720
<v Speaker 2>to to be around that while your teammates we were

232
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:17.039
<v Speaker 2>having that good success.

233
00:13:17.399 --> 00:13:20.759
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, it was extremely important to me to my family

234
00:13:22.559 --> 00:13:24.600
<v Speaker 6>throughout the season as well. You know, I wasn't able

235
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:26.879
<v Speaker 6>to be there the entire time. We send most of

236
00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:31.480
<v Speaker 6>our Tommy John guys too good year where you know,

237
00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:34.399
<v Speaker 6>you kind of get hands on care daily, and so

238
00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:36.279
<v Speaker 6>I was doing the lion share of my rehab there.

239
00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:38.799
<v Speaker 6>But you know, we we we spoke about that throughout

240
00:13:38.799 --> 00:13:44.120
<v Speaker 6>the season periodically, but the playoffs more specifically, it was awesome.

241
00:13:44.159 --> 00:13:47.879
<v Speaker 6>I was I was there to experience, to try and

242
00:13:47.879 --> 00:13:51.559
<v Speaker 6>provide any sort of value that I that I possibly could,

243
00:13:51.639 --> 00:13:58.159
<v Speaker 6>or wisdom or for for whoever, whether they were a pitcher, hitter, or.

244
00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:00.480
<v Speaker 5>You know, whatever position.

245
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:02.960
<v Speaker 6>So I was happy to be there jack some life

246
00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:04.840
<v Speaker 6>if if the guys needed it, but they really didn't.

247
00:14:04.919 --> 00:14:07.919
<v Speaker 5>They did fantastic all year. It was It was an

248
00:14:07.919 --> 00:14:08.919
<v Speaker 5>awesome season to watch.

249
00:14:08.960 --> 00:14:12.559
<v Speaker 6>It was really difficult, you know, just being a competitor

250
00:14:12.600 --> 00:14:16.399
<v Speaker 6>and an athlete, and I was looking so forward to

251
00:14:16.440 --> 00:14:19.919
<v Speaker 6>the to the season you know that we had last year,

252
00:14:19.960 --> 00:14:21.279
<v Speaker 6>and so it was different, different.

253
00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:23.159
<v Speaker 5>I had to watch it from a different perspective, but

254
00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:26.200
<v Speaker 5>you know, I was able to take it in and

255
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:27.039
<v Speaker 5>enjoy it all the same.

256
00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:29.759
<v Speaker 6>So I was happy to be there for those guys,

257
00:14:29.759 --> 00:14:32.000
<v Speaker 6>supporting them in their playoff moments.

258
00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:36.080
<v Speaker 2>Shane Bieber joining us back with the Guardians as he

259
00:14:36.120 --> 00:14:38.879
<v Speaker 2>comes back from Tommy John surgery and Shane you mentioned earlier,

260
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:41.480
<v Speaker 2>there are just so many people involved to help you

261
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:44.720
<v Speaker 2>in this situation, but also who have helped you become

262
00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:47.000
<v Speaker 2>the pitcher that you've been in the major leagues. And

263
00:14:47.000 --> 00:14:50.799
<v Speaker 2>I thought it was interesting CC Sabatia inducted or at

264
00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:53.240
<v Speaker 2>least voted into the Hall of Fame, will be inducted

265
00:14:53.240 --> 00:14:56.919
<v Speaker 2>this summer in cooper'stown, a long time Cleveland Indian, and

266
00:14:56.960 --> 00:14:59.759
<v Speaker 2>he gave so much credit to Carl Willis for really

267
00:14:59.799 --> 00:15:02.279
<v Speaker 2>shit who he became as a pitcher. And I know

268
00:15:02.360 --> 00:15:05.159
<v Speaker 2>there's a lot of different coaches that have touched you

269
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:07.879
<v Speaker 2>along the years, but uh, what is Carl meant to you,

270
00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:09.399
<v Speaker 2>especially in recent seasons.

271
00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:11.759
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, first of all, congratulations to cec.

272
00:15:12.000 --> 00:15:14.120
<v Speaker 6>He and his family are incredible and they've done wonderful

273
00:15:14.159 --> 00:15:19.159
<v Speaker 6>things for the MLB and people all over. So I

274
00:15:19.240 --> 00:15:21.840
<v Speaker 6>was really happy to see him. There's never a doubt really,

275
00:15:21.960 --> 00:15:28.080
<v Speaker 6>but for him to get that recognition that he definitely

276
00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:30.759
<v Speaker 6>deserves was was awesome. And that for him to kind of,

277
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:36.919
<v Speaker 6>you know, seek out and mentioned how much Carl has

278
00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:40.720
<v Speaker 6>done for him is is really truly special. It says

279
00:15:40.720 --> 00:15:44.960
<v Speaker 6>a lot about the person that Carl is the teacher

280
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:48.320
<v Speaker 6>and the role model that that he can be for

281
00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:51.000
<v Speaker 6>not just CC but for everybody, and so it definitely

282
00:15:51.039 --> 00:15:56.440
<v Speaker 6>feel that way personally. He's a tremendous coach, a tremendous mentor,

283
00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:00.639
<v Speaker 6>and he's I mean, his resume speaks.

284
00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:02.200
<v Speaker 5>To itself right and he does.

285
00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:06.480
<v Speaker 6>He's done some incredible things with some incredible talents along

286
00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:09.919
<v Speaker 6>the way. So I'm really really happy to be to

287
00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:12.519
<v Speaker 6>be back and to be with the same crew and

288

292

<v Speaker 6>and it's the same thing every offseason.

304
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:06.599
<v Speaker 5>It's I guess it's part of the job.

307
00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:15.000
<v Speaker 6>of spring training and learn what this new group's all about.

308
00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:17.440

309
00:17:17.440 --> 00:17:21.559
<v Speaker 6>we rotate some names on the lockers, and you know, the.

<v Speaker 5>End goal is always the same, so we're excited to

311
00:17:23.640 --> 00:17:24.160
<v Speaker 5>work towards that.

323
00:17:54.200 --> 00:17:56.240
<v Speaker 2>ago when he came back. He was a big key

324

325

<v Speaker 8>Network from Jacobs Field in downtown Cleveland, Ohio. It is

332
00:18:39.000 --> 00:18:41.920
<v Speaker 8>game number five as today the Cleveland Indians and the

333
00:18:42.000 --> 00:18:44.880
<v Speaker 8>Baltimore Orioles play in the rubber match of this three

334
00:18:44.920 --> 00:18:49.440
<v Speaker 8>game series. Let's face it, guys, all eyes today are

335
00:18:49.480 --> 00:18:52.559
<v Speaker 8>on a twenty year old behemoth of a young man

336
00:18:53.119 --> 00:18:56.880
<v Speaker 8>six seven cc Sabathia. You don't have many of these

337
00:18:56.920 --> 00:18:58.880
<v Speaker 8>special moments this early in the year.

338
00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:00.200
<v Speaker 2>This should be something.

339
00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:02.240
<v Speaker 9>Well and what you begin to wonder, Tom and we

340
00:19:02.319 --> 00:19:06.839
<v Speaker 9>shall see whether this defines the Indians franchise now for

341
00:19:07.119 --> 00:19:09.920
<v Speaker 9>the next ten to twelve years. This is one kid

342
00:19:10.160 --> 00:19:12.519
<v Speaker 9>who they have been pointing to as a part of

343
00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:15.799
<v Speaker 9>the future, and the future has arrived for cc SA.

344
00:19:15.799 --> 00:19:19.319
<v Speaker 8>Matthews Brady Anderson leads off the wind in the very

345
00:19:19.359 --> 00:19:22.079

347
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:29.640
<v Speaker 8>Anderson got a quick look at the future.

348
00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:31.640
<v Speaker 6>Here's a fun place to play.

349
00:19:31.680 --> 00:19:34.799
<v Speaker 3>I really love this city, really enjoy it, and this

350
00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:36.240
<v Speaker 3>place holds a special place in my heart.

351
00:19:36.279 --> 00:19:37.519
<v Speaker 6>I wish we would won the championship.

352
00:19:38.119 --> 00:19:41.160
<v Speaker 10>He's had a Hall of Fame caliber career both on

353
00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:43.240
<v Speaker 10>and off the field, because not only is he an

354
00:19:43.240 --> 00:19:46.759
<v Speaker 10>exceedingly good competitor, but he's universally respected as a teammate

355
00:19:47.079 --> 00:19:48.400
<v Speaker 10>and as a leader in the clubhouse.

356
00:19:54.480 --> 00:19:57.160
<v Speaker 2>Welcome back to Guardians Weekly, and it's been a big

357
00:19:57.200 --> 00:20:01.359

358
00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:05.960
<v Speaker 2>and heading into the Hall of Fame longtime closer Billy Wagner,

359
00:20:06.559 --> 00:20:09.000
<v Speaker 2>one of the best hitters of his generation both here

360
00:20:09.039 --> 00:20:12.400
<v Speaker 2>and in Japan. Each ye row and someone near and

361
00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:16.359
<v Speaker 2>there to Cleveland fans certainly see see Sabbatia he'll be

362
00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:18.559
<v Speaker 2>going in as well. And we are joined now by

363
00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:22.920
<v Speaker 2>Paul Hoyins from the Cleveland Plaindealer Cleveland dot com, longtime

364
00:20:23.079 --> 00:20:25.759
<v Speaker 2>baseball writer with a vote in terms of Hall of

365
00:20:25.799 --> 00:20:29.880
<v Speaker 2>Fame and hoyinsey no surprises really for you that the

366
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:32.000
<v Speaker 2>three that got in and maybe some that did not.

367
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:38.079
<v Speaker 11>No, Rosie, I thought all three of those guys, CEC

368
00:20:38.759 --> 00:20:42.240
<v Speaker 11>each Row and Billy Wagner would get in. You know,

369
00:20:42.279 --> 00:20:45.720
<v Speaker 11>I had a little concern about CC maybe not making

370
00:20:45.759 --> 00:20:49.599
<v Speaker 11>it on the first ballot, but you know, I'm glad

371
00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:50.079
<v Speaker 11>he did.

372
00:20:50.240 --> 00:20:52.240
<v Speaker 12>So, Yeah, I had, and I voted for all three

373
00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:55.480
<v Speaker 12>of those guys. Rosie and for CC.

374
00:20:56.920 --> 00:21:00.119
<v Speaker 2>What were those concerns that you thought might leave him

375
00:21:00.160 --> 00:21:01.279
<v Speaker 2>off on that first ballot?

376
00:21:02.119 --> 00:21:05.839
<v Speaker 11>Well, you know, he has a high ERA uh you

377
00:21:05.880 --> 00:21:10.920
<v Speaker 11>know postseason uh you know, record is not is you know,

378
00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:14.039
<v Speaker 11>it's not great. It's not you know, as as uh

379
00:21:14.759 --> 00:21:18.920
<v Speaker 11>you know, as prominent as his regular season stats. But

380
00:21:19.279 --> 00:21:21.200
<v Speaker 11>other than that, I you know, I just you know,

381
00:21:21.559 --> 00:21:24.519
<v Speaker 11>you know, people are hung up on the ERA issue.

382
00:21:24.559 --> 00:21:27.240
<v Speaker 11>It kept uh you know, Jack Morris out of the

383
00:21:27.880 --> 00:21:30.039
<v Speaker 11>out of the balloting for the at least for the

384
00:21:30.079 --> 00:21:33.160
<v Speaker 11>Baseball writers, uh you know, and he finally had to

385
00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:35.599
<v Speaker 11>get elected by an ERA committee.

386
00:21:36.079 --> 00:21:38.519
<v Speaker 12>Uh So well, you know that that was my one concern.

387
00:21:38.599 --> 00:21:41.599
<v Speaker 11>But I think when you look at CC's body of

388
00:21:41.680 --> 00:21:45.319
<v Speaker 11>work and uh, you know, two hundred and fifty one wins,

389
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:50.279
<v Speaker 11>he wins the World Series Championship, Uh, Cy Young winner

390
00:21:50.440 --> 00:21:51.519
<v Speaker 11>and Rosie the way.

391
00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:54.480
<v Speaker 12>Managers use starters.

392
00:21:54.559 --> 00:21:57.400
<v Speaker 11>Now, what do you think, do you think we'll ever

393
00:21:57.440 --> 00:22:01.279
<v Speaker 11>see another pitcher like this win two hundred and fifty

394
00:22:01.319 --> 00:22:06.359
<v Speaker 11>one games? I mean, you know so, so then you know,

395
00:22:06.400 --> 00:22:09.160
<v Speaker 11>I think that that was enough in my mind to

396
00:22:09.519 --> 00:22:11.839
<v Speaker 11>you know, to put him in the in Cooper's South.

397
00:22:12.279 --> 00:22:16.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think two hundred wins is the new three

398
00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:19.119
<v Speaker 2>hundred that it used to be, just the way starting

399
00:22:19.160 --> 00:22:22.279
<v Speaker 2>pitchers are being used now, and it might be, gosh,

400
00:22:22.359 --> 00:22:26.160
<v Speaker 2>two fifty one might be just too far of a

401
00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:29.000
<v Speaker 2>reach now based on on the lack of innings and

402
00:22:29.279 --> 00:22:31.559
<v Speaker 2>not going five and all that kind of kind of

403
00:22:31.559 --> 00:22:35.440
<v Speaker 2>thing that you see nowadays much more often. Did Did

404
00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:39.920
<v Speaker 2>that maybe tip it for Billy Wagner? Just the way

405
00:22:39.960 --> 00:22:42.279
<v Speaker 2>he performed as a reliever, And you might see more

406
00:22:42.279 --> 00:22:44.440
<v Speaker 2>relievers getting in because of how they're used.

407
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:48.319
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, well, you know, i'd like, I'm glad the closers

408
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:51.279
<v Speaker 11>are getting more of a run now. You know, Wagner,

409
00:22:51.359 --> 00:22:55.319
<v Speaker 11>this was his last year of eligibility. He had, you know,

410
00:22:56.000 --> 00:22:59.799
<v Speaker 11>just missed last year seventy three point eight percent of

411
00:22:59.799 --> 00:23:02.759
<v Speaker 11>the vote. He needs seventy five percent to get in,

412
00:23:03.480 --> 00:23:05.759
<v Speaker 11>So you know, I was glad I was, you know,

413
00:23:05.839 --> 00:23:07.759
<v Speaker 11>I was happy that he got in. I mean he

414
00:23:07.880 --> 00:23:11.000
<v Speaker 11>kind of cut short his career short. You know, he

415
00:23:11.039 --> 00:23:13.400
<v Speaker 11>wanted to go home and be with his kids. I think,

416
00:23:13.480 --> 00:23:15.240
<v Speaker 11>you know, he still had a couple of years left

417
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:18.359
<v Speaker 11>and and another guy that didn't pitch all that well

418
00:23:18.359 --> 00:23:22.160
<v Speaker 11>in the postseason. But you know, twelve seasons a twenty

419
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:27.480
<v Speaker 11>or more saves, nine seasons with thirty or more, you know,

420
00:23:27.640 --> 00:23:31.440
<v Speaker 11>four hundred and twenty two saves overall two point three

421
00:23:31.599 --> 00:23:32.400
<v Speaker 11>one era.

422
00:23:33.000 --> 00:23:37.119
<v Speaker 12>You know, I think he deserved to be in, Rosie and.

423
00:23:37.079 --> 00:23:41.079
<v Speaker 2>With each yearro how much did you consider his Japanese

424
00:23:41.119 --> 00:23:43.720
<v Speaker 2>career or is that not on the docket for you

425
00:23:43.759 --> 00:23:46.279
<v Speaker 2>guys to to consider a Hall of Famer.

426
00:23:47.279 --> 00:23:49.759
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, I mean you can consider that, I guess, you know,

427
00:23:49.880 --> 00:23:51.799
<v Speaker 11>if you know, if you do that, he's got over

428
00:23:51.839 --> 00:23:53.279
<v Speaker 11>four thousand hits, right.

429
00:23:53.680 --> 00:23:55.119
<v Speaker 12>But I think he got it.

430
00:23:55.160 --> 00:23:58.200
<v Speaker 11>I just took it, as you know, you know from

431
00:23:58.240 --> 00:24:01.440
<v Speaker 11>his big league stats, and you know, it's really amazing

432
00:24:01.480 --> 00:24:04.000
<v Speaker 11>when you think about it. This guy was twenty seven

433
00:24:04.039 --> 00:24:07.039
<v Speaker 11>when he came over here, Rosie, when he came over

434
00:24:07.079 --> 00:24:11.920
<v Speaker 11>from Japan, and what the Onyx Blue Waves he played with,

435
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:15.960
<v Speaker 11>I think and this guy what he still gets three

436
00:24:16.000 --> 00:24:20.920
<v Speaker 11>thousand hits here, ten time Goal Globe winner, a Rookie

437
00:24:20.920 --> 00:24:24.200
<v Speaker 11>of the Year, ten time All Star, and the thing

438
00:24:24.240 --> 00:24:28.039
<v Speaker 11>that kind of blows your mind, you know what what

439
00:24:28.160 --> 00:24:31.839
<v Speaker 11>he had ten ten straight seasons of two hundred or

440
00:24:31.880 --> 00:24:35.440
<v Speaker 11>more hits, and you know, he set the all time

441
00:24:35.519 --> 00:24:38.200
<v Speaker 11>record with you know, over two hundred and sixty hits

442
00:24:38.200 --> 00:24:39.279
<v Speaker 11>in one year.

443
00:24:40.240 --> 00:24:43.119
<v Speaker 12>Just you know, that's incredible.

444
00:24:43.160 --> 00:24:49.079
<v Speaker 11>And you know, I remember Rosie when the when the

445
00:24:49.119 --> 00:24:51.759
<v Speaker 11>idiots first got there, they got their first look at

446
00:24:51.799 --> 00:24:54.240
<v Speaker 11>each row. You know, that was when they had Robbie

447
00:24:54.240 --> 00:24:58.519
<v Speaker 11>Alamar at second base and omarv. Skelle at second at

448
00:24:58.519 --> 00:25:01.359
<v Speaker 11>short I said, I should say, and those guys, you

449
00:25:01.400 --> 00:25:04.559
<v Speaker 11>know what about twenty five maybe almost close to thirty

450
00:25:04.599 --> 00:25:08.079
<v Speaker 11>gold gloves between them, and when they from they got

451
00:25:08.119 --> 00:25:10.759
<v Speaker 11>the first look at each row. The first game, you know,

452
00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:12.920
<v Speaker 11>he kind of beat out a couple infield hits.

453
00:25:13.359 --> 00:25:15.319
<v Speaker 12>They had to move up, you know, they had to

454
00:25:15.359 --> 00:25:15.799
<v Speaker 12>move in.

455
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:18.079
<v Speaker 11>Both you know, you're talking about two of the best

456
00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:21.559
<v Speaker 11>infielders in baseball history, you know, showing their respect for

457
00:25:21.599 --> 00:25:23.200
<v Speaker 11>this guy. They had to take a couple of steps

458
00:25:23.200 --> 00:25:25.759
<v Speaker 11>in to play their positions just just to be able

459
00:25:25.799 --> 00:25:26.480
<v Speaker 11>to throw them out.

460
00:25:27.759 --> 00:25:32.720
<v Speaker 2>So with all that, one voter said, no, he does

461
00:25:32.759 --> 00:25:35.440
<v Speaker 2>not deserve to go in. Yet that wasn't you.

462
00:25:35.519 --> 00:25:40.079
<v Speaker 12>Was it Hointy, No, it wasn't us. Thank god, How

463
00:25:40.119 --> 00:25:40.759
<v Speaker 12>does that happen?

464
00:25:40.799 --> 00:25:40.960
<v Speaker 3>Though?

465
00:25:42.759 --> 00:25:43.400
<v Speaker 12>You know, I don't know.

466
00:25:43.440 --> 00:25:45.039
<v Speaker 11>You know, you look back at the history of the

467
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:47.799
<v Speaker 11>Hall of Fame. You know, Mariano Rivere is the only

468
00:25:47.839 --> 00:25:50.359
<v Speaker 11>guy with you know that that got one hundred percent

469
00:25:50.400 --> 00:25:53.440
<v Speaker 11>of the vote. You know, Johnny Bench didn't, Babe Ruth didn't,

470
00:25:53.759 --> 00:25:55.079
<v Speaker 11>Honus Wagner didn't.

471
00:25:55.440 --> 00:25:58.720
<v Speaker 12>You know, Roberto Clemente didn't. You know. All in all,

472
00:25:59.039 --> 00:26:01.839
<v Speaker 12>you know, go down the line with the greatest players

473
00:26:01.839 --> 00:26:03.079
<v Speaker 12>in the history of the game.

474
00:26:03.160 --> 00:26:05.799
<v Speaker 11>None of them got, you know, one hundred percent of

475
00:26:05.799 --> 00:26:10.400
<v Speaker 11>the vote except you know Rivera. So you know, I

476
00:26:10.400 --> 00:26:13.559
<v Speaker 11>don't know what point this the voter was trying to prove.

477
00:26:14.200 --> 00:26:17.039
<v Speaker 11>I'd love to hear an explanation from him or her,

478
00:26:18.319 --> 00:26:21.079
<v Speaker 11>but you know, I doubt they'll make that ballot public.

479
00:26:22.359 --> 00:26:27.359
<v Speaker 2>Willie Mays, I think was left off twenty three ballots

480
00:26:27.039 --> 00:26:29.480
<v Speaker 2>on his first year or the year he got in.

481
00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:32.359
<v Speaker 2>Something remarkable in the amount of people who didn't think

482
00:26:32.400 --> 00:26:33.240
<v Speaker 2>he was a Hall of Famer.

483
00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:35.880
<v Speaker 11>But and I think, you know, I think that the

484
00:26:35.960 --> 00:26:40.039
<v Speaker 11>voting body has changed a lot, or Rosie, I think

485
00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:43.720
<v Speaker 11>it's gotten younger, and I think that leads to more

486
00:26:44.039 --> 00:26:46.839
<v Speaker 11>the potential for more guys to get in. On one

487
00:26:46.920 --> 00:26:49.799
<v Speaker 11>hundred percent of the vote, I'm still scratching my head

488
00:26:49.839 --> 00:26:50.440
<v Speaker 11>over each ear.

489
00:26:50.480 --> 00:26:54.920
<v Speaker 2>Although Paul Hoynes joining us as his ballot was in

490
00:26:54.960 --> 00:26:58.400
<v Speaker 2>and the Hall of Fame voting is complete with C. C. Sabatia,

491
00:26:58.519 --> 00:27:01.759
<v Speaker 2>Ichi Ro and Billy Agner going in. So you voted

492
00:27:01.759 --> 00:27:05.839
<v Speaker 2>for ten, so seven did not make it biggest surprise

493
00:27:05.920 --> 00:27:08.160
<v Speaker 2>for you that you voted for that did not get in.

494
00:27:09.400 --> 00:27:13.119
<v Speaker 11>You know, I thought Carlos Beltran would get in, Rosie.

495
00:27:13.160 --> 00:27:16.240
<v Speaker 11>I thought he had a great chance, and he came close.

496
00:27:16.839 --> 00:27:18.880
<v Speaker 11>I think he'll get in in the next couple of years.

497
00:27:18.920 --> 00:27:19.319
<v Speaker 12>I don't know.

498
00:27:19.720 --> 00:27:24.079
<v Speaker 11>People are still holding the Houston signed seats stealing scandal

499
00:27:24.119 --> 00:27:27.480
<v Speaker 11>against them. That might, you know, have hurt him. But

500
00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:29.720
<v Speaker 11>I think eventually he's going to get in.

501
00:27:31.319 --> 00:27:33.440
<v Speaker 2>And some of the others that you voted for that

502
00:27:33.519 --> 00:27:36.039
<v Speaker 2>did not get in, that you feel are still worthy.

503
00:27:36.880 --> 00:27:40.480
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, I'll run down the guys I voted for, Mark Burley,

504
00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:50.960
<v Speaker 11>Tory Hunter, Andrew Jones, Dustin Pedroia, Francisco Rodriguez.

505
00:27:53.640 --> 00:27:56.519
<v Speaker 12>And Omar Viscal. Those are the guys I voted for

506
00:27:56.599 --> 00:27:57.440
<v Speaker 12>that didn't get in.

507
00:27:59.160 --> 00:28:02.160
<v Speaker 11>You know, we can talk about the and you are

508
00:28:02.160 --> 00:28:04.079
<v Speaker 11>you interested in talking about any of those guys.

509
00:28:04.160 --> 00:28:08.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think so. I'm obviously close to Cleveland fans

510
00:28:08.519 --> 00:28:14.079
<v Speaker 2>Omarvis skel Uh. Even even if off field things are resolved,

511
00:28:14.559 --> 00:28:16.920
<v Speaker 2>has it been too much to overcome at this point?

512
00:28:17.920 --> 00:28:18.599
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, I think so.

513
00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:22.359
<v Speaker 11>I think he's you know, unfortunately, I think Omar if

514
00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:24.000
<v Speaker 11>he does get in the Hall of Fame, it's not

515
00:28:24.039 --> 00:28:24.480
<v Speaker 11>going to be.

516
00:28:24.480 --> 00:28:25.680
<v Speaker 12>By a vote of the writers.

517
00:28:26.119 --> 00:28:28.519
<v Speaker 11>It'll have to be by one of the era committees,

518
00:28:29.480 --> 00:28:33.559
<v Speaker 11>you know, slash veteran committees. Because you know, Rosie, this

519
00:28:33.599 --> 00:28:35.759
<v Speaker 11>guy should be in the Hall of Fame. You know,

520
00:28:36.200 --> 00:28:39.319
<v Speaker 11>three or four years into his candidacy, he was at

521
00:28:39.319 --> 00:28:41.920
<v Speaker 11>fifty one percent of the vote, so you know that

522
00:28:42.039 --> 00:28:44.319
<v Speaker 11>was you know, he was passing guys like Trammel and

523
00:28:44.359 --> 00:28:46.519
<v Speaker 11>those guys like they were standing still.

524
00:28:47.319 --> 00:28:49.480
<v Speaker 12>So he's right now he should be in.

525
00:28:49.519 --> 00:28:52.640
<v Speaker 11>But you know, the problems off the field really scuttled

526
00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:58.119
<v Speaker 11>his uh, his chances to get in on the BBWA ballot.

527
00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:02.519
<v Speaker 2>I thought it was interesting. Chipper Jones, a teammate of

528
00:29:02.559 --> 00:29:06.359
<v Speaker 2>Andrew Jones came out yesterday and said, well, if he

529
00:29:06.359 --> 00:29:08.160
<v Speaker 2>had been with the Yankees, he'd be in by now.

530
00:29:10.200 --> 00:29:14.400
<v Speaker 2>But you voted for Andrew Jones? How come? And and

531
00:29:14.440 --> 00:29:15.880
<v Speaker 2>does he have a chance to get in at some

532
00:29:15.960 --> 00:29:16.559
<v Speaker 2>point in time?

533
00:29:16.599 --> 00:29:18.720
<v Speaker 11>You think, yeah, I think he was at like I

534
00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:22.240
<v Speaker 11>think he got probably sixty percent of the vote, you know,

535
00:29:22.319 --> 00:29:25.880
<v Speaker 11>right around sixty percent of the vote. This year, you

536
00:29:25.880 --> 00:29:28.000
<v Speaker 11>know this, he'll be in. He'll have two years of

537
00:29:28.000 --> 00:29:32.000
<v Speaker 11>eligibility left. Hopefully he gets in. And you know I

538
00:29:32.160 --> 00:29:35.880
<v Speaker 11>voted for him. Rosie, five time All Star, ten time

539
00:29:35.960 --> 00:29:40.039
<v Speaker 11>Gold Glove winner, twenty or more home runs for ten years,

540
00:29:41.079 --> 00:29:44.000
<v Speaker 11>led led the National League and home runs with fifty

541
00:29:44.039 --> 00:29:48.240
<v Speaker 11>one in two thousand and five. Just you know, I think,

542
00:29:48.359 --> 00:29:52.039
<v Speaker 11>what what what is Hurty Jones is? You know, his

543
00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:54.559
<v Speaker 11>career kind of it took off. You know, we saw

544
00:29:54.640 --> 00:29:57.920
<v Speaker 11>him as a teenager break in with the praise, you know,

545
00:29:58.119 --> 00:30:01.880
<v Speaker 11>have that meteor oric rye. And then he got to

546
00:30:01.960 --> 00:30:03.480
<v Speaker 11>a certain point in his career and it was just

547
00:30:03.519 --> 00:30:05.960
<v Speaker 11>like he fell off a cliff. And I think that

548
00:30:05.960 --> 00:30:08.880
<v Speaker 11>that probably hurt him, has hurt him more than anything.

549
00:30:08.920 --> 00:30:11.359
<v Speaker 12>But if you go by peak years, I mean, this

550
00:30:11.400 --> 00:30:13.279
<v Speaker 12>guy's this guy's hard to ignore you.

551
00:30:13.319 --> 00:30:16.680
<v Speaker 11>I mean, you listened to all those great pitchers that

552
00:30:16.720 --> 00:30:21.279
<v Speaker 11>the Braves had, Smolts and Clavi and Maddox. They said

553
00:30:21.319 --> 00:30:24.279
<v Speaker 11>they've never seen a better center fielder. So you know,

554
00:30:24.319 --> 00:30:27.160
<v Speaker 11>I think that carries some weight with the voters.

555
00:30:27.359 --> 00:30:29.319
<v Speaker 2>And the one guy that I liked that you you've

556
00:30:29.359 --> 00:30:32.480
<v Speaker 2>had on for a couple of years now is Mark Burley,

557
00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:36.759
<v Speaker 2>And not even looking at the numbers, I think he

558
00:30:36.799 --> 00:30:39.440
<v Speaker 2>should be in just because gosh, I enjoyed watching that

559
00:30:39.440 --> 00:30:42.400
<v Speaker 2>guy pitch. And I don't know if that comes into

560
00:30:42.400 --> 00:30:45.079
<v Speaker 2>play or not. Probably not. It's got to be numbers too,

561
00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:47.400
<v Speaker 2>But why do you think Burley should be in there?

562
00:30:48.160 --> 00:30:51.279
<v Speaker 11>Yeah? I mean when Burley pitched, Rosie, you know, you

563
00:30:51.319 --> 00:30:53.119
<v Speaker 11>didn't have to pack of lunch, man, you were out

564
00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:56.759
<v Speaker 11>of there, and what one fifty nine two hours in

565
00:30:56.839 --> 00:31:00.240
<v Speaker 11>a couple of minutes it was, you know, so he

566
00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:04.480
<v Speaker 11>pitched fast, he was efficient. You know, just just listen

567
00:31:04.519 --> 00:31:09.079
<v Speaker 11>to some of these numbers. Rosie in fourteen years in

568
00:31:09.119 --> 00:31:12.359
<v Speaker 11>the Big League, in fourteen years is during his career

569
00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:15.720
<v Speaker 11>he pitched over two hundred innings in each of those seasons,

570
00:31:16.079 --> 00:31:19.519
<v Speaker 11>five time All Star, four time Gold Glove winner, through

571
00:31:19.519 --> 00:31:21.799
<v Speaker 11>a perfect game, threw a no hitter.

572
00:31:23.160 --> 00:31:27.920
<v Speaker 12>I really think he's an underappreciated pitcher. And you know,

573
00:31:27.960 --> 00:31:29.000
<v Speaker 12>I voted for him.

574
00:31:30.039 --> 00:31:31.880
<v Speaker 11>The first couple of years on the ballot, I didn't

575
00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:34.240
<v Speaker 11>vote for him, but then I looked at his stats

576
00:31:34.240 --> 00:31:34.960
<v Speaker 11>a little more.

577
00:31:35.519 --> 00:31:36.599
<v Speaker 12>And if you want.

578
00:31:36.519 --> 00:31:40.279
<v Speaker 11>Consistency out of a starting pitcher, and that's what everybody wants,

579
00:31:40.559 --> 00:31:42.319
<v Speaker 11>you want a guy that can get you five, six,

580
00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:43.920
<v Speaker 11>seven innings every time out.

581
00:31:44.519 --> 00:31:46.920
<v Speaker 12>That's he did that. And you know that's why I

582
00:31:47.000 --> 00:31:47.640
<v Speaker 12>voted for him.

583
00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:51.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, when you watched them pitch, you don't see it

584
00:31:51.799 --> 00:31:54.839
<v Speaker 2>as much anymore. Pitchers who pitched the contact, put the

585
00:31:54.880 --> 00:31:57.920
<v Speaker 2>ball in play and let their fielders do the work.

586
00:31:57.960 --> 00:32:00.680
<v Speaker 2>And he was a pleasure to watch. We'll see probably

587
00:32:00.720 --> 00:32:03.759
<v Speaker 2>a long shot at best, I would think, Yeah, so

588
00:32:03.880 --> 00:32:07.759
<v Speaker 2>you look ahead the next year. Any locks you think

589
00:32:07.799 --> 00:32:10.920
<v Speaker 2>for for next season coming on the ballot, Yeah, you know.

590
00:32:10.880 --> 00:32:11.079
<v Speaker 6>I have.

591
00:32:11.240 --> 00:32:13.680
<v Speaker 12>I have not really looked at that, but I haven't

592
00:32:13.720 --> 00:32:14.759
<v Speaker 12>really studied those guys.

593
00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:17.200
<v Speaker 11>I don't think there's an each row or a CC

594
00:32:17.839 --> 00:32:20.599
<v Speaker 11>on on the two thousand and six ballot.

595
00:32:21.119 --> 00:32:21.920
<v Speaker 12>We'll have to see.

596
00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:23.920
<v Speaker 11>I think it's you know, and that's kind of opens

597
00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:26.480
<v Speaker 11>the ballot up to a lot of the guys.

598
00:32:26.400 --> 00:32:29.119
<v Speaker 12>That we just discussed, and maybe they'll they'll get a

599
00:32:29.119 --> 00:32:31.680
