"And I expect another big jump this year and ticket sales as long as they continue to be good throughout the season because it's a pretty good group in terms of people have identified with them. They like them. A lot of the personalities and I mean like Julio just is a draw. People just like I haven't when I was a kid in 94, you know, I think it was an 8th grade or as in high school 94 95, but even when I was a kid in 8th grade, I remember going to see griffey as a rookie and just what the number of little kids that were there. And like this year, this past year, you just can't, I couldn't believe the amount of young kids I saw back at the park all were in Julio jerseys or following Julio. Everything about Julio, like that guy, that kid has captured that whole area, like the way he's gone about everything. And so it's just, there's kind of been this renaissance of baseball excitement, but it's an excitement around having that superstar. He's locked in and unlike griffey, I think he's a lot more comfortable with it, but that charisma and everything like you just can't help but be drawn into him and you're just seeing it all over like kids all over in Julio gear. You just see it. Like when I was at the airport a few weeks ago going to Mexico, I just noticed there were kids all over and they're all wearing Julio stuff, you know, a Mariners hat and stuff. And you didn't see that for a while. I mean, I've been out in the in Tacoma areas since 2006. And that hadn't always been readily available. And to see kind of the boom now, I really think, you know, the Mariners could be in a prime window for success, not just on the field, but kind of in, you know, growing their brand across that area and drawing fans. So we have paragraphs have the Mariners projected for 83 and a half wins, so that's second in the west behind the Astros, you know, baseball perspectives and have them third behind the angels and then Houston on top. And I'm curious what your senses of where they see themselves in relation to a division that is getting stronger. You know, you have the angels trying to actually supplement trout and Otani with a bunch of guys who are competent big leaguers, the rangers are making these big pushes with their free agent signings. So where do they understand themselves to be? Well, the angels didn't really get a competent big league manager to supplement the situation, but we'll hear about and the fan grafts projections and everything else. They tend to mention and every once in a while, they'll notice, oh, we were picked to win this, this and this last year and look what we did. And on the year before, so they know, you know, I don't think there are division winner by any means. I just, I really like the Astros moves this off season I thought they were pretty smart. And until you even say, well, yeah, we played it right with them, but you didn't beat them. You know, played right with them in the postseason. And you didn't beat them. Now the Mariners were missing some guys. And the Mariners played them more competitively than they have in a long time. But you know, that's get you a division. Being competitive against a team, unless you can find ways to beat them, doesn't really matter. So I still think that the Astros are heads and tails above everybody else. Seattle, I would pick second. I guess maybe I've been burned too many times thinking that angels are going to be good. And then they're not. I like what Texas did. I thought Texas played really well towards the end of last season as well. There are not good defensively, though. But they gave the Mariners troubles and I guess if all these pitching guys and we've already seen some stuff with the ground, but that was the biggest thing with the rangers last year is the Mariners knew they could score runs against them. You know, when they couldn't score runs against anybody, they knew they could score runs against some rangers. And I think, you know, either the bullpen or the starters. So this year, if those improvements are there, I think it'll be better, you know, I still think the Mariners are the second best team. And I think they're probably about an 87 win team. But we'll see, you know, as they're currently constructed, I wouldn't be surprised if they try and make a move again. At mid season, you know, they're never ending pursuit of Brian Reynolds will continue. Forever. And, you know, until, you know, unless Jared really turns into something that will continue to try and get him. But you know, you can see spots where maybe they can supplement get more of a full-time DH that can bang it a little bit more than trying to piece it together all the time. Yeah, we've been ending these segments by asking our guests to say what would be a successful season for the team that they're previewing and prior to this year, I guess the answer for the Mariners would have been easy. You've got to make the playoffs, right?

"Time baseball. Do you expect any movement during spring training in terms of trades? Because I remember last year there were a couple of trades before the season started. I know the Padres were in on a couple of different ones. I think mania came over the day a couple of weeks before spring training in it and then you had you had Rogers come over from Minnesota. I think it was the day of opening day. You expect any deals to happen during spring training? Well, you can't put anything past the age of probably might be. You have to do anything at any time. And the big name that's still out there is Brian Reynolds, center Fielder from the pirates who's requested a trade. He was offered a 6 year deal for about 76 million with no opt out. So it was better than the Murphy deal that Murphy signed with the braves, you know, it's probably a little light, but apparently they have a major gap and, you know, he wants to be dealt and this agency has used his playbook before and real Muto was dealt when he wasn't happy with the way the negotiations were going to Marlins. It took a year though in that case. A lot of people think maybe at the deadline is a possibility because the pirates, you know, they don't want to make a trade where they're taking a step back. You know, their fans, not too happy. I bet. It was nice. They brought mccutcheon back. That's a nice present. That's a good gift for the fans. Rich hill, but I mean, obviously this is in a youth movement. I love richel, but you know, they did some things. So give them credit for that. But, you know, they have some and they have some players too. I mean, T Brian Hayes, very good. I think O'Neil Cruz is going to be a really good player. And with Reynolds, so and they're not in a great division. I mean, they don't look like they could contend against St. Louis, Milwaukee and maybe the cubs, but I still don't think they're going to trade him in spring training, but that's the big name that's out there and being talked about. Other teams are saying they're asking for a solo like trade. I can't see anybody giving up that kind of prospect stash Reynolds really good players center Fielder, good, bad. I mean, he's not solo. I mean, there's a reason sono turned down 440 million and he turned down 76 million. That's a big gap, right? So there you go. Deal coming for them. But, you know, two good prospects, you know, that's fair, but I just think that I'm going to say they keep him at least into the deadline. I'd be remiss if I didn't talk a little bit about the Padres here as we get ready to head into spring train and have to be one of the favorites in the national league to come out of it. I think about it takes me back to the NLCS. I think the Phillies, they got better during this off season. I think the Padres got better during this off season. Let's start with the Padres. Do you see this team as one of the favorites coming out of the national league? Oh, they got to be. I mean, to me there, the clear favor in the west, and that's something. I know that beat the Dodgers in the playoffs, but the Dodgers clearly were a better team last year. They're clearly was a gap. Dodgers want to under 11 games. I mean, I'm not sure what went on there. Why are they let so many guys go? Didn't really make an attempt to sign the one thing they did try to do was design Verlander and they offered somewhere in the 70, 75 million range. I believe. So they were outbid there for Verlander, but other than that, the Dodgers, you know, made smaller deals, JD Martinez, and then they let so many guys leave obviously trade Turner and Justin Turner, two of the big ones, Tyler Anderson. Their payroll is going to be down in this day and age down like 60, 70 million, and they're going to have to and that's including paying 20 something million for Bauer that they're going to have to pay this year. So today end up getting underneath the threshold? No, they are over the threshold. That was, I don't know if that was a goal, but it seemed like they wanted to get the payroll down. They spent so much last year with very disappointed to lose to their rival, Padres after you saw it. They beat the Padres silly in the regular season, and then when it counted, Padres were fantastic and knocked them out. So, you know, they look like they're going to be a 90, something when team instead of under 11 when team, but clearly they're always a threat. But the Padres, I mean, you know, it just seems like there's some guys some owners right now. We have that era where there are a few owners that just will do anything to win. The Padres and the Phillies, the two teams, and they were rewarded for doing this, and they're continuing to do it. Phillies beat their, they built their team on free agency. You know, people say, oh, you can't build your team. You got to build your team from within, they built that team on free agency, and got to the World Series. So he's continuing with that to get Turner from the Dodgers and kimbrell and Taiwan walker. I mean, they did a ton, and they look really

"And the mets too, growing up, it's just so weird that the yank both New York teams have stable non train wreck organizations at the moment. And that it feels like a piece of my childhood died. All right, and I guess we should acknowledge also that Brian Reynolds of the pirates demanded a trade. Now, this is not unheard of in baseball, but it is less common in baseball for players to demand trades than it is for players in other sports to do it. And I guess you could say that it is both understandable that a Pittsburgh pirate would want to demand a trade. And also almost unnecessary because if you are a good player on the Pittsburgh pirates and you start to make more money, you probably will be traded. It's like Brian. It's going to happen anyway, no matter what you say. So don't worry. Just chill. I mean, you rarely see these kinds of holdouts in baseball. Because the contract structure that's common in baseball doesn't really make that beneficial to a player. Derek bell could threaten not to play in the pirates like fine. That's fine with us. Alfonso soriano when they wanted to move him off second base or two second base in Washington before I think 2006. He threatened not to play and they said, okay, well, fine. We'll put you on the restricted list, and then you'll lose a year of free agency. So, okay, and then that died off quickly. Reynolds doesn't have much leverage. I mean, what's he gonna do? Tank. I mean, does that really improve his position in the eventual free agency? Shut down part two. I don't think so. I mean, I'll teach them. I'm gonna hit one 80. Okay, fine, well, you're going to be playing next year for the Washington Nationals. Right. And then you're going to sign to the minor league a minor league contract a year after that. So good luck with all that. Yeah. And the pirates issued a statement and they said it was disappointing, but that the request will have zero impact on our decision making in this off season or in the future, our goal is to improve the pirates for 2023 and beyond with three years until he hits free agency, Brian remains a key member of our team we look forward to him having a great season for the pirates. So, I don't know, like there were trade rumors already flying about. Brian Reynolds and he may have been traded anyway, and he may be traded now, despite that statement, if not, then I think things will just kind of be awkward, I guess, because he will have demanded a trade, and he will not have been granted one. They are obviously under no obligation to trade him. And I think by coming out with that statement, like you can imagine that even if the pirates were privately telling him, we will trade you or we'll comply with this request, or they were already intended to trade him. They would not want to come out and issue a statement saying, okay, fine. We'll trade you because then they would have no leverage in trade talks. So they almost have to say that they're going to keep him regardless. Whether they actually do, I don't know, but obviously he would be an attractive player. He's a 27 years old. He's coming off to very strong offensive seasons at least. He had a superstar level war season in 2021. And yeah, I mean, a lot of teams would be happy to have Brian Reynolds. So could they commit to him long term? And with all the good young talent that they have in the pharma system, I don't think he's not so old or advanced in his career that they would say he can't be part of the next good pirates team. It's just that he will actually be making some money by the time the pirates are good again and I don't know whether that is acceptable to bob nutting. So we'll see what happens. Yeah, I think bob not only looks askance at any player who's making a lot of money because that's his money that they're taking. But how dare he? But I don't, I think he's still mostly interested in this bottom line that he wouldn't say, well, we're not going to trade him out of spite. And lastly, I guess we should acknowledge the winter meetings officially kicked off. I suppose with some Hall of Fame news with the era committee met and voted on the contemporary players and Fred mcgriff is now a Hall of Famer. So not surprising, I think it was fairly widely predicted that mcgriff would get in with this group of media members and players and executives that seemed quite crafted to get Fred mcgriff into the Hall of Fame and he sort of perfectly fits the bill of a veterans committee era committee candidate. And frankly, he's one of the better ones, I think, by the standards of the veterans committee and the area committees in the past. Fred mcgriff is a borderline Hall of Famer by jaws and statistical standards. He's not Harold baines, you know, I guess you can use Harold baines as the Harold. I know poor Harold Payton's seems like a nice guy, everyone's happy for him, but it was just so far below the statistical historical standards that if baines is in, then you can say, well, if beans is in, then this guy, and that guy should be in, or you can say, well, he's better than Harold baines, and that is certainly true. I mean, Fred mcgriff was a really good player for a long time. And probably would have gotten in earlier if he had hit 7 more homers if there had not been a strike during his career, whatever, right? And it's sort of silly to keep him out based on the fact that he got 7 fewer homers than 500. It would also, I suppose, be sort of silly to put him in solely because he got 500, but that's the way that things tended to work pre PDs, but like even by the advanced stats and everything, like he's, you know, a little on the shy side of the jaws standards and the positional standards. But not so much that it causes a beans level uproar. And everyone seems to like Fred mcgriff, so I think generally everyone is happy for him and there has not been a big uproar about it. I would have put him in if I had been a voter and I would have liked to vote for 7 of the 8, I think, I think Don Mattingly was slightly on the no side for me. His prime just wasn't long enough. But I mean, mcgriff kind of suffered in a way in that he had his best years during the 1988, 19 to 1992. Between the years of the home runs, where offense was actually really, really low around baseball. And I think people forget that period and kind of think of 87 to now is like the one homogenized era of the home run.

"They haven't really improved within a division that's incredibly competitive. So last winter, they go out, they send Corey Seeger. They send Marcus Simeon and I think that this is really an organization trying to restart the franchise and announcing to its fan base. Look, we got elite players last winner. We got elite players this winner come and watch his play. Does that make sense? And look, you're in Texas. You got to go big, you know? You got to bring in some big names to bring in the fans. What I'm curious, what are the next moves for the rangers? Historically, they've never run a payroll over 200 million. So are they going to push that up to that tax threshold of two 33? So that gives them room to make a couple other significant moves. I think they could use another starter. They could use an outfielder. I think Corey Seeger without the shift is going to have a monster year. There's some studies that have shown no hitter has been hurt more by the shift than Corey Seeger. So I think you'll have a big year. Marcus semi in after that's terrible start was very good that the final four months. So we'll see, but they got to add more to really make this move payoff. It makes sense to me that although, you know, my sense was that Grom might have been willing to put himself on a platter to go to the braves, that in the end they weren't the team that spent that kind of money, Dave, because they don't really have to. They've got plenty of pitching. They're an excellent team. There are other ways to go for them other than to lay out an investment on a guy who's really injury prone. Yeah, the braves have more restraint than any other organization and they can do it because they've extended all their homegrown products or the extended metals. And they've never signed a free agent to a $100 million deal. They've given those contracts to their own players, but never do a free agent. So I don't think ever in the cards for the braves to give de Grom a 100 million plus contract. All right, let's talk about some of the other news that has been made in terms of guys moving from one team to another. Cold and long gets traded by the Milwaukee Brewers to the Seattle Mariners, the Mariners we know we're looking for another left handed hitter. They were looking for a second baseman. And Colton Wong is one of those guys. I think the perception is with the rules against defensive shifts, it only increases his value day because he's been one of the best second baseman in baseball. Yeah, he and he's added some power to his game, doesn't strike out. Just kind of a nice, solid all around player. I know his defensive metrics actually did drop off a little bit last year though. I guess I've read. He played through some leg injuries, but he's been at two time gold Glover in the past. Exactly what Seattle needed. Jesse winker from reports out of Seattle and kind of worn out his welcome there. But he had a great 2021 with the red, so the brewers are hoping for a bounce back from him. So to me, kind of a trade that makes sense for both teams. We get word over the weekend that Brian Reynolds, the center Fielder from the Pittsburgh pirates for the Pittsburgh pirates, his requested a trade. I spoke with some agents who thought this is kind of silly. They're feeling was and he turned down a big offer during earlier in this off season and he's requested tradeoff. I don't really get the point of requesting a trader letting letting that get out there. What do you think? Yeah, you know, look, this happens all the time in the NBA, right? Par for the course, we don't see this and MLB and no offense to Brian Reynolds, nice player. He was an all star in 2021 when he had his career year, but is he a good enough player to demand a trade buster? I don't know. It's a little bit of a weird situation. We all get what's going on in Pittsburgh, you know, he's got three more years of team control, so I don't know if you're the pirates, do you want this guy on your team? You know, he's a valuable player. You'll bring back a lot in a trade. If you want an unhappy player, I guess that's what Reynolds is hoping for that the pirates will just say, all right, we don't want you anymore if you're going to act like that. But if I know Ben Charrington, who's a general manager, the pirates, and I know that, you know, this world of modern analytics that we're in, the front office is typically we'll hear a request like that and be like, yeah, okay, whatever. Yeah. We don't care what you want, what you don't want. Ultimately, it comes down to whether or not someone's willing to give the pirates what they're going to ask for. Which is a lot, given the, you know, the heightened need now for guys who can hit from the left side of the plate is Reynolds Ken and given the need for a center Fielder. I think the pirates are going to go, yeah, thanks for the input, we'll just see what kind of offer the, you know, the Toronto Blue Jays or some other team makes to us. Yeah, and I think don't you think the first domino here is Brandon nimmo signs. No doubt. He's the only center Fielder out there in free agency. So once he goes, then the interest in the demand for Reynolds will suddenly get a lot higher. So I think this will have to take a little time to play out. Yeah, I know the Yankees have talked about him in the past as well and maybe baron judge leaves. And the Yankees are left to pivot and do some other things. That potentially could be a way to go. You could build a build a an incredible shutdown outfield defense, which is in keeping with the Yankees direction recently.

"Most definitely one of those people. I could not have handpicked a person, sort of better equipped to push baseball in the right direction into the future than Theo Epstein and I for one am thrilled about practically all of the sweeping changes that Major League Baseball is pushing down the pike and obviously he is a big reason for all of them. Yeah, and I love the fact that he basically started this conversation when he left the cubs by saying, you know what? I contributed to the problem. And now we have to fix the game because definitely has gotten to a point where for the next generation of fans it may not be as watchable. All right, so the shift is obviously the regulations against the shift are going to be at the forefront of what happens in baseball next year. From what you've seen in recent years, the shift popularity and the impact of the sport. Here, I think most important numbers as it relates to the shift, which is now going to be banned. League wide batting average on balls in play last season was two 90. That was lowest in the season since 1992. League wide up among left handed hitters was two 83. That was Lois in a full season since 1989. Much more specifically. And you and I will dig into this a little bit further. Lefties owned a bad bit of two 19 on ground balls, which was the lowest in any full season over the last 20 years. As it relates to popularity, there were nearly 61,000 ships employed last season, and more than a third of plane appearances, further, righties were shifted at 19.6% of the time and left these 55% of the time. Front offices have access to all the same numbers that I do and probably way more. I think that you'll see a lot of front offices identify certain players this off season as guys who might really benefit from that. And there are obviously any number of left handed hitters across the sport that are going to benefit to a large degree. Obviously, among those that are not free agents but I think you'll see a big incline in that respect. Yeah, Hamburg I tweeted out the other day that the feedback I got from agents from executives at the general managers meeting last week was left handed hitters are suddenly really popular in the market. Last week with Jack Peterson got the qualifying offer from the San Francisco Giants. I think some casual fans were like, what? You know, he's been getting like $8 million, $10 million and suddenly the Giants offer him a qualifying offer of 19.65 million. That's behind it, right? So give me three hitters that will benefit from this regulations against the shift. The first thing Anthony Rizzo, who we know is a free agent. He had a two 16 bad bit blast season that was the third lowest market baseball. His career bab of entering last year was two 83. That's a massive delta. More than half of his hits were extra base hits. In other words, they were just no singles to be had. The second is Juan Soto. So there were a 126 hitters last season that put at least 350 balls in play. Hitting the differential between his batting average and his expected batting average was 9th dwarves. The same differential when it came to a slugging with 6 worst and in total, he was the 6th unluckiest hitter in baseball measuring his entire batting line. He was shifted nearly 60% of the time, despite his ability to use all fields. And the last buster is Corey Seager. He pulled 123 ground ball out. That was most of the majors. This is a two 45 hitter last year that had a two 97 during his Dodgers career. There are any number of hitters that you could say this about. Those three really stood out to me. And there's one other point that I think needs to be made. One thing we can't really control for is the difference in approach that we might see for some left to left handed hitters. Now knowing that more singles are available. Cedric Mueller's king Brian Reynolds think Jared Kilmer. These are guys that have had to increase their launch angles because they're just not enough. They're on a blade of grass for lack of a better term available on that side of the field. I think you're going to see any number of guys with sort of fringe power, not shoot for 30 homers anymore. Shoot for 15 or 20, reduce that launch angle and add 15 or 20 hits to that ledger. I think that you'll see any number of players make that concerted effort next season. Those three are just, you know, kind of top ahead there. What do you think? Do you agree with that? Yes, a 100%. I think they're going to be so many ripples from this that we can't even begin at this point to assess them. I remember talking with a couple of managers during the course of the season and asking them about the rules about three pick off attempts to be in a max. Et cetera and they are feeling was, look, it's way too early to really know exactly how that's going to impact running games, but both of them reach the conclusion. It will impact and it will help a lot. And I think that's the way it is with some of the defensive shifts. I think there's a lot to it. And I think it's just going to make for games that are going to have more action in less time because the pitch clock. Look, I mean, they have all the data in a minor leagues that backs up every single word that you just said. And I'll tell you what. If I am Trey Turner's agent, I'm copy pasting that information and sending it to all 32 teams because trade Turner who went 27 to 30 last year stealing bases. We saw a 9% increase in success rate in the minor leagues. There's no reason why that guy can't steal 40 or 45 bases next year. There's no reason we don't have a 50 stolen base guy next year. I'm not so sure that unbalanced. We're going to see massive spikes lead wide. What we will see is individual players with certain talents take a massive step forward because these rules help them specifically. And that I think is the likeliest thing that we should be tracking in the beginning of next season. And again, all of that happening, not in three hours and 15 minutes, but in two hours and 40 minutes. And I think there'll be a lot of people walking away from baseball games next year, same boy, that was fun. Because there have been too many games in the last increasingly in the last four or 5 years where you walk away and say, boy, that was a slog. I mean, look, the most fundamental thing, like baseballs, built upon the bad ball. The reason back in the day, when they're playing over the elysian fields, which I can see from where I am in Greene's offense right now, that the pitcher threw it up where they're better wanted it to be hit. That's baseball, baseball is the bad ball. It's the foundation of which the sport is built upon. We can inject some more into the game. The game is only going to get more exciting. That's the most exciting thing about baseball. When the bat meets the ball. All right, give me a couple of big award choices and a favorite staff for each of the winners. So my nationalists are young winners, sandy Alcantara, buster. He had 14 starts this year. 14 in which he got 24 outs. No other pitcher had more than 6. He had 14. No one else had more than 6. My AL Cy Young is Justin Berliner. He'll PS of four 97. Four 97.

"Now, AJ preller is willing to move guys that you wouldn't think he would move and go after guys who you wouldn't think he would go after. And yet I look at the Padres and it feels like they need a bat like a Brian Reynolds would be perfect for them. I still don't think Brian Reynolds is going to move because I feel like the pirates are maybe on the verge of something. They're not there yet. But with O'Neill Cruz who looks at every bit the star that his tools say he can be. With Brian Hayes with Nick Gonzalez coming with Jack swanky, having all that power in the outfield and Reynolds there with some pitchers on the verge as well. I don't know, Pittsburgh feels a little bit like where Ken just city is, which is that you need to start adding guys to this core that you have in place. And you need to start spending some money. So preller loves to go for moonshots and Brian Reynolds at this point feels like a moonshot. But if he's willing to give up CJ Abrams, you know, at that point, the pirates have to at least listen. And he's been willing to give up top prospects in the past. I'm fascinated by the decision the Orioles are facing because they obviously this has been a year of progress. They're playing better. They're nudging toward 500. And on the other hand, this is their play in the American League east. They're probably four teams are going to make the playoffs out of the east. The oils are almost certainly not going to be one of them. What do you do? If you're the ownership and you feel like you're turning the corner and you have all these marketable players. I got to say, I kind of dig watching the Orioles, you know, just some of the reclamation projects there. I've seen Jorge Lopez fail a number of places and now he's throwing 99 with nasty breaking stuff in his first real full run at the bulb. But I trade Jorge Lopez. Trey Mancini is a superstar human being. And a great addition to any Clubhouse and a leader in Baltimore and someone who's been the Paragon of consistency. And I probably trade him too. Because the Orioles are getting to a point right now where I think they need to start running themselves like they're going to be here soon. Like all of these high draft picks, whether it's adley rushman, Colton cowser, we have seen heston Kerry stag come back finally. It's getting to the point where they have to start to try and win. And they're not there yet. So you remain, as long as the rules are in place, here you remain in asset building. Hate to say it, but not like they got a ton of fans turning out right now who they're going to scare off with this. And it's been a pretty grim situation there for a while and frankly, you gotta see the plan through. But we're getting close to not cutting time. They're in Baltimore. They need to start trying to be competitive, we've had enough enough tankage going on for franchise for a while. I wonder about Cedric Mullins. I think he would be, for example, a great fit with the Astros. You see where

"To get to the highest level and to be in that environment is strengthens you. For everything that's going on right now with Ricardo Pepe and you gave him advice. You told me it would be a good place for him for everything that's happening to sink or swim can't help them. Being in Major League Soccer, being an FC Dallas amongst other kids where it doesn't matter if you win, it won't matter if you lose. Isn't going to benefit him. He may play he may be happy, but it's not like fighting for your spot. It's not like having the knife in between your teeth and really having a cutthroat environment when you have to prove yourself day in and day out. That's where I differ with them. Didn't we kind of hear this from Jurgen Klinsmann on our show, specifically talking about Ricardo peppy and the fact that there could be a negative to a move to Europe. It's funny because during the interview as he's naming all the other guys, Brian Reynolds and George Bella who are, you know, pretty far on the periphery of the national team. The alarm that's going off in my head is, are you really talking about peppy? Is this really about peppy? And then of course, at the end, he gets to it. And he is talking about Ricardo petty. Because if you look at the players that matter to Greg berhalter, the player who he's lost, who has suffered the most for an ill timed move or maybe not an ill time move, but the wrong location in terms of Augsburg or maybe the boon this league is for halter points out is peppy. He had a number 9 when he was at FC Dallas and he has lost that player now. Yeah, the caveat there is when you're getting Clinton came here. He wasn't saying don't go to Europe. He just saying be careful where you go in a World Cup year. That's the important thing here. It's a World Cup year and it's not a summer World Cup. It's a winter World Cup. So what you choose to do right now, will impact you? Yes. For the said World Cup. But Ricardo peppy was on this exact show and he told us that Greg berhalter was influential in that decision. Yeah, it's moving in a World Cup year, but it's also choosing the right place to move no matter where, right? Because even in a World Cup year or not a World Cup year, you can still get it wrong and maybe that's the case for a guy like Brian Reynolds who ends up at Roma under José Mourinho. I don't think that's where anybody thought that he would develop well. I think we said that here on this show.

"Set up. I don't know what you think Andrew, but it's very hard to break into it. Yeah, now look, he is in the U.S. setup. He was an under 20. He was under 23 with the Olympic team. So he is like, he's on the radar. And it's a good shout by Matthew because he is having an exceptional season. I think the thing with him was always that he was good in defense, but was he going to bring enough in attack from what has now become essentially fullback is an attacking position now. Is he going to add that element to his game? And you see his assist number. So he has. The problem, like you said, is that there's just a log jam. Like who's he going to get by? So he is an old man, JJ. He's pushing AARP levels at 24 years of age. So I say that jokingly, because 24 is he's a youth. He's but a boy. But like sir jinho dest who plays that position, we think, is 20. Reggie cannon, 23. Brian Reynolds, at some point, we'll get further up in the pecking order. He's 20. Joe Scalia is 18. This is the right back right now for the U.S.. So I think Herrera is someone who could potentially benefit greatly from if we have another gold cup situation like what just happened with miles Robinson, if he can get on a team like that, that's why the Olympics would have been so huge for players like him and not qualifying was important for their development and for continuing to get a shot at the big time with the senior team. It's just going to be hard. So if he can he's going to have to I hate to say this, it's cold and harsh, but he'll have to rely on injuries ahead of him. And if that happens, he's a guy who could potentially get a shot. But right now, just looking at like a full healthy squad, it's hard to see. But it's a good, it's not a bad thought by Matthew at all. And I understand this idea of MLS guy, and he plays in a small market. He's off the radar. That's fair. So I get where he's coming from. But yeah, there's a log gen there. It's going to be tough for him. Okay. Let's see what we have next. Conrad. I have a question. What version of FIFA you guys love playing when you were growing up? Back then, I loved FIFA O 6 because of the soundtrack and to see mid 2000s A.C. Milan and it's here day. Also, keep up with the pod and I like to hear more of JJ using The Sopranos as examples of soccer. Love the podcast. Thank you, Conrad. That's a great question. I'm going to let you go first. What is your favorite FIFA? Conrad nailed it. That FIFA O 5 and O 6 were my junior and senior years of college. And I honestly can not even calculate the number of hours we must have spent playing those games. They were incredible those FIFA were amazing, and he's right, the soundtracks for those were peak FIFA soundtracks. What were some of the songs on that on the O 6 one? I think block party I think had helicopter. On it. It was great. Yeah, I loved it. Absolutely loved it. My favorite was from EA Sports, but it wasn't. It wasn't called FIFA. It was called World Cup 98. And it was on the what you call it. The Nintendo 64. Okay. I loved it. I chose loved it. I mean, graphically, it was way ahead of anti I'd ever seen before in terms of a soccer game. I just love the way you would line up shots. I mean, compared to the modern game, it seems clunky and old, but it was great. It was a fun game, just a lot of fun. And then I think pro evolution soccer brought out one in all 5 or 6 that I really loved. You would be that guy. In a time when FIFA was just like the ruler of the soccer video game universe, you would be a pro Evo guy. No, it wasn't. It was my friend Frank that owned it. And he used to say, look, they don't have the rights to all the names or they didn't at the time, but this in terms of gameplay and even graphics, was a superior game for a brief period. Now I'm not a big gamer head, so there's probably some people who could argue the toss with me over that. But I'm happy to hear from anyone who enjoyed pro Evo. I thought it wasn't anywhere near what FIFA is, but I loved it anyway. And finally, the best boy asks, is Yuri tilman's one of the best midfielders in the world. Which is a good question. And I would say I do not pay I mean, he's got a brilliant call at the weekend. Second weekend of brilliant goals from him, isn't it? I don't pay enough attention to how good he is, but if you look on FB ref the scouting report versus midfielders from the past year, midfielders in the top 5 leagues, he's right up there. He's absolutely up there. One of the things that I really liked is in the 89 percentile for XG assists, which is XG, which follows a pass that assists a shot. That is that is great. Shock creating actions per 90 minutes, 3.10. That's in the 92nd percentile. Those are some good midfield numbers. Now, he's in the 21st percentile for his past completion. In the last year, which is his past completion is pretty low at only 79.3. I thought that was interesting. But then again, progressive passes 89 89%. So that's the thing is that the past completion statistic can be a deceptive one, because it might just me like there are guys who can boost that number with simple lateral passing. It might mean that you're a telomere is willing to make the higher degree of difficulty past with the greater potential reward for it. Yeah, any place forward is looking to play forward all the time. And sometimes those passes between the lines can be more difficult. It's very, very good Andrew. He is. He's very good. I wouldn't be able to say it to you. He's not, he's not up there. Is he one of the best players?.

I'm going to do that again, and I can't hide it because I'm on the screen with you so stage right, man, That's all it is. Maybe it is. We've got two combo meals in the past week. Um, so the Oscar Hernandez, who's awesome by the way of Toronto, his third of the season, even though he only has like 12 steals and one sorta, also his third of the season, also not a ton of seals. But fantastic Tasker at the end of the top 10 announcement, and now like the number of support that he is, I think he's in the player hater is a top 10. Alfred. Let me make sure that I think he could. And that was the guy where the plate approach reminds me a little of JD Martinez and he made a star of himself. I don't know that Tae Oscar will ever hit for quite the same average year over years. JD did How about this? Like, so he's the number seven. He's right there with Juan Soto. Now this is a little bit unfair. The player hater just gives so much. Martin work, Merrifield. Stolen basis are so amazing that that they move ahead of like Harper and Soto and Castle. Yeah, no. So I don't really view it that way. Because I think the player I think the points leagues would be a better thing to view it as opposed to the player writer, But anyway, casters awesome One soda is awesome. What do you want the weekend ones? There were a couple more over the weekend. Yeah. What else? What else? Over the weekend September 12th one Soda had another combo meal. Uh, Charlie Blackmon and then on the fifth five players did it. Matt Duffy, Brian Reynolds, Cedric Mullins, Javier Bias and Kevin Pillar. Yeah. I knew melons have done it and moans since then, his home with a couple times. Unbelievable. Charlie Blackmon is kind of interesting. Um, you know, he used to be a big bass dealer. And now I think it doesn't even have like Quiet. No. He's three steals and 15 home runs. What a awful season for course, Field outfielder Everyday 131 games and he's got to 69 13 and three steals. My goodness for a healthy guy now when we do our bust of the season, which at some point even though it's not negative thing, I mean, it's obviously gonna be laden with guys who are hurt Mike Trout probably bust of the season, frankly, first round pick. It played 30 games he and Monastir the bus of the season, and I'm sure others in Trump's case because and you had mentioned this as much as anybody that the lessons of the previous injuries cautioned you on what to expect, and he fell short of it by a substantial margin. Right, And he's not a first round pick for next year. You can't average 110 games over like a five year period still be a first round pick every anybody else in baseball. You know, would have been Well out of our top 10 trials. Awesome, But he doesn't play enough. He's point here is yes, His path to it is that he comes back in spring training. 100% Day one. Tears it up during the Cactus League. I see no other path in that. I mean, I don't see how I could take Trout over Freddie Freeman next year, and Freddie Freeman feels like the 10th 12th pick Overall. Devers is right there. These guys are durable charts. Not durable. Anyway. What was the point I was trying to make. I don't even remember now. Uh damn, what was the point was somebody you were talking about? Um, And now I got a black man. Yeah, Blackman is not even a top 100 player anymore. Um so forget about him. I just like what a disappointment for for for a guy. We have to do to bus lists.

The mexican fan base had the superiority over the american fan base because the nineties and before were owned by mexico then come to thousands and the us gets competitive not only competitive. They kick you out of a world cup thousand two and for the better part of almost two decades. They're competing with you. Then all of a sudden they don't make the world cup we're back but what happens the. Us's exporting players at this incredible rate and now they beat you in two finals in forty days and you're not exporting these players. It's going to sting because it's that devos's because major league soccer which they know. They think they shouldn't say they think they know lee is better than so. That's why it stinks. And it's one of those you'll never get back. Us will always be able to say just like the world cup and we said this before that we got one over on you and we got one over on you with our beat team which i will say my friends in the text chain. That's what they were saying to me. So i get it. I get it absolutely for sure before before we get to the next thing shouts to at. Usf thoughts on twitter. They did a great job with like a total depth. Chart of these players did and i think helped helped her quite a little bit with his with his homework. Not that in case you missed.

"I just don't know that everybody every big contenders gun informed. So it's it's just that it's not easy you know you can want a battle it's going to be a bit more also dictate where he's going. Which yes he can and eight teams. Originally i don't know if the full later actually really in play but shares gets to tell you yes or no and that's okay because he's earned that right after all this time and i don't have a problem with it and if they're gonna bullpen. And if it's not a bad or a frontline meaning not just frontline started but that guy not a guy the throne of the rotation that guy. And that guy's max scherzer if you pull that off but if you're going to the bullpen. I don't think the option can be anything. Other than a left-hander. I guess it exists. There's somebody but i. I mean you could but i would imagine you're focus would be if you're going to go for another bullpen arm. That he'd be coming from the left side of the pitchers mound. Probably i wonder how the three batterman employs into that because through postseason beijing. You don't necessarily you gotta if you're going to get a lefty come postseason time. He's got be able to get out some right handed hitting because you got to keep men. Which by the way advisory versus through varieties continues to be the dumbest thing ever so three better minimum. That thing has to go way better collectively bargain. That thing out of the next cba. Because it so stupid. I unders- there's a lot of dumb ass. Rules at the major league. Baseball is implemented. Sorry tell you but there is suck. I put down position players. And i i got to total of five names. I think that they want to improve over mile straw for the post season specifically. They have right now. Two holes in their lineup. That now you look at most teams you say oh. They only have two holes in their lives. That's nothing it really is. But straw and maldonado is a massive glaring like he's an automatic out basically I wonder do they play on a bat. That either plays a corner. Outfield spot. That shifts tucker over. 'cause there's not a lot of true center fielders left and i put down the names again. I don't think it's a real possibility. But i think you have to consider it because i don't think the cost is going to be as bad as you think. Put down kris bryant. I've been speaking into the universe crisp. Get him for a prospect price. That you're comfortable with you have to entertain the idea of playing him in the corner outfield and it also gives you some built in protection on if bregman continues to have leg issues. He complain at third base. Obviously the other the other names. I put down with mary field. I don't love that option. But he's an option. I think he had to consider go to the nationals. Josh harrison is played corner outfield. this season. he also plays across the infield and he hits in that down. Brian reynolds from the pirates. That one pride cost you a little bit in the name that i put down as an out of the box line of thinking..

"We saw Brian Reynolds, who was drafted years ago last night, the All Star game playing for the Pirates. He was traded out there a few years ago. I'm looking at Von Braun, the first position player, you guys took an outfielder at a Florida Southern College. He looks like he's sort of a slight, wiry guy, a right handed batter, right handed arm, but they say he's a big offensive player. What can you tell us about Von Braun? Tremendous athlete. Bone is plays in the middle of the field center field has versatility on the defensive side of the ball in that plate. Has the ability to steal bases. We had some power. So you know, I think he's a guy that some people may not be as familiar with, you know, playing at the D two level, but tremendous upside. Tremendous athletic ability, really scratching the surface and really feel strongly help player development can be able to take him on and really helped him. Reach is because Michael. Obviously, last year was was really strange. The draft was strange, and you know, it looks like a lot of these guys at the beginning, and we were seeing Patrick Bailey now we're going to see him in San Jose. Casey Schmitz down there. We've seen some of these guys. Kyle Harrison de La Salle. Guys look good. So far, so For the 2020 guys. What's the progress like in in what did the pandemic due to potentially hurt any kind of progress there? Well, any time, you know, speaking from the hitter side of things anytime you lose it, bats certainly slows the process down. You know, these are still 21 22 year old kids that need to log it back at the minor league level to gain that experience. That by not playing, you really just can't simulate. So, um, I don't want to say they're playing catch up. But and the reason why don't say that is because guys like Casey in pad, even guys from our 2019 draft. These guys, it's just really Dedicated themselves during the pandemic to get better, you know, from a strength conditioning standpoint in the cage. These guys, I got a democratic. They worked really hard. Um, but it's they just catching a flight. Are you catching a flight? That's what you do? Yeah. I don't want you to miss your claim. Well, you guys are good. Okay? Just if you've got to go, just go. I wish I could tell you guys that we get. We get to hibernate after the dress over, But we'll be we'll be out watching players for 2020 2022 crazy. It's crazy, man. Yeah, our whole staff. They're out today. We're already working on next year's draft. So this is it's a year round. Things never stopped fan. You got to love that never stops. Yeah, Yeah, yeah. I never stopped. I'm working at the I'm looking at the draft board just that first round, and I know everybody tries to project this stuff. And as John was saying, you know, college basketball in college football is just much different because you kind of get an idea based on what we've seen and you slot these guys in immediately, and they just start playing. They start helping your team. But as you're looking at the draft board, you start to see some of these guys who are viewed as maybe top five picks. Top 10 picks start to fall like Kumar Rocker Falls to number 10 I was seeing Khalil Watson, a guy who maybe could have been tied to the Giants of high school shortstop out of Wake Forest, North Carolina. You start to see these guys fall. Do you stay the course you go. Hey, we Found our guy. We want this guy. Do you start to get tantalized by some of these other players dropping I think you just have to stay consistent to your board, you know? The draft is such an unpredictable, unexpected type thing. Guys fall Some guys rise. I think we're sometimes you can go arise if, um you start to kind of Waiver from the work you put in throughout the year and how you've lined your board up just because something may be staring in front of you. Um, So if you say consistent with your board and kind of how you've aligned it, it takes a lot of discipline right? Because sometimes the carry gets tangled out in front of you, But listen, we were in position to take a lot of good players. There were a lot of good players available when it was our turn to pick at 14. And I think we we really believe that we've got a really good one. And will Bednar Michael Holmes, director of amateur scouting for the Giants. Just a couple more minutes. Um, does it met? Do you have to get your hands on these guys like Bednar? For example? Where would he started? You have to see where he is. He just pitched a full season. How do you look at that? And where do you see what these guys? How do you determine that? Well, if you guys asked will where he's going to start. He'll tell you Oracle part editor here like that. Hell, yeah. Yeah, you like that about the individual right? And he believes in himself, and he feels like he's ready. But, you know, listen, uh, the truth of the matter is when you take some of these college pictures like we did. The workloads obviously, is one that they come in with a lot of innings out of the spring. And this year is even more unique because these guys had a workload that they haven't seen for a couple years with the pandemic in 2020 20 so Um I'll turn that over to Kyle hands to his group will we'll come in? We'll assess where he's at. We'll set a development plan for him. We'll put him in a position to succeed, just like we will. All the other guys. The hardest part for us is keep trying to keep the player patient because They're ready to go as soon as they signed their cries racket, and they think they think they need to fast forward the process. So we try to slow them down. Paint the picture for him. Get him a nice player Development plan and then go into execution. Get them comfortable. They're not all Todd Van Poppel, right? I know some of these guys just need to get used to pro baseball, right? Right. Exactly. They've never done their own laundry paid their rent. Do that type of stuff. So, uh, there's all those different types of things that we do a great job of acclimating these players, So, uh, they want to speed up the process. We never hold guys back from moving forward if they are ready, but we also like to make sure that we put them in a position to succeed as well. Congratulations. Another great draft. I know you guys doing a lot of hard work. And you already on the road again. So thanks for taking a few minutes. We appreciate it. Thanks, man. All right, guys, have a good there you two That's Michael Holmes..

We're gonna have to separate groups. There might be a little bit of overlap and likely that overlap is gonna come from mls players because it is the summer and you've got transfer window open you've got guys going into preseason camps trying to earn their way like for instance. He said brian reynolds not here because joe's marino doesn't generally play younger players so they want brian reynolds to beat at roma from the jump with the new manager to make sure he has a chance to get into the team otherwise he's going to be working From behind a couple other names in that scenario where cameron carter vickers gotta figure his cup situation. Eric palmer brown to figure out his cup situation. And greg said admitted our centre-back cool is a little bit light. So here is the roster for those of you who haven't seen it goalkeepers matt turner the likely starter. Funny story there. We'll get to that shawn johnson. Brad gazon defenders george bellew reggie cannon shack more. That was a little bit of a surprise. Donovan pines another site. Surprise but again center back a little bit thin per berhalter miles robinson a starter says greg james sands sam vines and walker zimmerman the other presume starter at center back in the midfield coma. Kosta general kabuchiko stand up kansas city especially jet criminal. Don eric williamson. Who was my must have on this roster injection you'll end up top paul arriola gerald decay.

Twenty-three you're thinking about the summer you're thinking about the task at hand which is both to win a gold cup but also develop players to push into the first team to get to the world cup. What are you thinking right now on this thursday morning for me. I'm thinking there's not any anyone that i'm particularly surprised about. That's one too. I think this group is is has enough quality to win now if mexico brings. They're a team. That's going to be challenged in especially with mexico hungary to avenge that nation's league loss.
