Speaker 1 (00:00):
Playball.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
This our number three, our number three, and how do
you react on the Ben Maler Show to Yankee manager
Aaron Boone being apparently beyond criticism.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Lance Lynn, one of his former players, said that unless
you played for Aaron Bone, you can't criticize him. We
heard a lot of chatter about addition or subtraction from
the respective team's pipelines at the trade deadline. What is
your takeaway from the Major League Baseball pipeline.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
We'll talk about that.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Also in the NFL, the Jaguars are listening their number
two overall pick Travis Hunter as a starting wide receiver
and a second string defensive back. What is your level
of interest in that particular storyline. We'll cover that as well.
Right now here it is our number three. Another case
(00:53):
of the Bronx burning right now.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Wow, Welcome in the beginning of another.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Hour of the Ben Mahler Show.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
We are in the air everywhere, a joint effort as
we are boasting and roaston coast to coast, border, the
border and beyond on the vast and spiffingly powerful microphones
of FSR ammating live from the line the line the
(01:29):
gain for a first down from the Fox Sports radio
studios as approved by Yauphimi and GM mansin Eugene, in Chicago,
they all approved that message and this portion of the
Ben Mahler Show on Fox made possible in part by
our friends at ti Iraq. For over forty years, ty
(01:50):
Iraq has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
what and where they drive, ship fast and freeback by
free road hazard Protection, Kathy and Maddison giving the nod
on that with convenient installation options like mobile tire Installation,
Tire act dot Com, the Wait Tire Mind Show.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Be So I lead this hour is from Baseball. One
of the mantras on this show is and I learned
this when I was starting out in my radio sojourn
and I was assigned by the mighty six ninety eight
Big Border Blaster radio station in San Diego, which was
actually in Baja California, and they assigned me to go
(02:32):
to locker room. So I spent a lot of time
in locker rooms, and I learned quickly that the better
story is in the losing locker room. Now, why is
the better story in the losing locker room? The better
stories in the losing locker room, Because that's where.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
The emotion is raw, right, That's where it's raw.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Winning locker room, there's always a lot of music, celebration,
high fives.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Losing locker room.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Oh my god, it's like a morgue in the losing
locker room.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Boo hoo hoo. Who see you learn early on?
Speaker 3 (03:00):
And there's no better story right now than in baseball
than the New York Yankees, the mighty New York Yankees.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
And that is our lead.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Another game, another heartbreaking loss as Josh Young hit a
three run dinger, and the tenth inning, after the horrifically
bad Jock Peterson, who's been stealing money from the Rangers
this year, he hit a pinch hit home run in
the ninth inning. The tight the Rangers beat the Yankees,
(03:30):
who got swept by the Marlins over the weekend, and
they go down, down, gout the Yankees yet again, eight
to five on Monday night. Seven consecutive home wins for
the Rangers. But the New York Yankees, who have free
they've fallen. They're free falling in the American League East
right now. Toronto the top team, the Red Sox are
(03:52):
better than the Yankees now and they've opened up a
little bit of a difference between those two teams. So
now I bring this up because the Yanks, he's been
terrible for the last month two months. They've been playing
bad baseball, and there have been a few people that
have pointed out that Aaron Boone does not appear to
know what the hell he's doing. And coming to the
(04:12):
defense of Aaron Boone, we have former major league pitcher,
the rotund Lance Lynn. There a Lance Lynn. He never
missed the postgame spread. So Lance Lynn hopped on some
dopey baseball podcast recently to defend Aaron Boone. Lynn dropped
the unless you've been in the clubhouse, you don't know
(04:35):
what you're talking about routine trying to defend Aaron Boone.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Only allowed you only allowed to comment on Aaron Boone
if you've worked for Aaron Boone.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Okay, So let us discuss the question for the esteem panel.
How do you react to Aaron Boone being apparently beyond
criticism according to one of his former players, Lance Lynn,
because unless you played for him, and you didn't play
for him, you didn't, you're not allowed to criticize him.
So on this one, I've got daycare. Bernie made off
(05:10):
and play dough, and we will combine all of these
things together and we'll go full shizzle, is what we're
going to do.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
So, first of all, this is.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Saucy. My word is saucy, right, it's weak sauce. It's
weak sauce as well. Now you say something even remotely
critical of Aaron Boone and the Good Old Boys Network
is activated, another ex player running to defend Aaron Boone.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
You just don't get it, bro, Bro, you just don't
get it.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
It's like when I used to work out of the
gym over in Glendale. Here in Soga, Bro, you don't
get it.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Bro. Come on, that's the argument. It's a meatthead jock argument.
It's nonsense, is what it is. The classic you didn't play.
You didn't play, so you cannot say anything.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
Now.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Meanwhile, the Yankees, and maybe I'm wrong on this, maybe
I am wrong with the Yankees are supposed to be
a big boy organizationan right New York City, the Big Apple.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
If you can make it there, you can make it anywhere.
All that crap.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
So what are we doing here. You're in the number
one media market in the country. You have pathetically underachieved
all season you've got Aaron Judge. I know Aaron Judge
is out right now, he's supposed to come back, in fact,
later today, he's supposed to be back.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
But you also have a gaggle of pretty.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Big names, pretty big names out there, and the results
are not there. And you're in a results based business.
This is the business. You're in, the results based business.
But the media is supposed to I guess, give Aaron
Boone a cookie. I don't know what kind of cookie.
Give him a cookie because he gets mad privately. That
was the argument. Lancelin was many as well. He takes
care of things internally. Now he doesn't go to the media.
(07:01):
It takes things internally and takes care of issues. So
is that how that's supposed to work.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
I didn't believe. I don't believe that's how that's supposed
to work.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
In fact, where I'm sitting, and what do I know,
it's the softest thing I've heard in weeks. You've got
real accountability, and real accountability, last I checked, does not
does not happen. According to Lancelot, he said at the mic,
is what he's said. So the results are terrible. We
(07:33):
can all agree on that, Like every man, woman the
Yankees have been pathetic, and so it's I guess it's
it's convenient now that Aaron Boone defenders are saying, well,
he takes care of it internally, internally, So under that regard,
like Boom can never be questions that the way I'm
(07:53):
supposed to approch that you cannot question Aaron Boone because
everything just happens behind closed doors.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
And that's it.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
And isn't that what every failed coach, every failed executive says.
We're taking care of it behind closed doors. It's trust me,
we got this, we got we're handling it in house.
We've got it under control. It's in house that meanwhile,
the house is on fire. But you did have the
rogue X player and that ex teammate Alex Rodriguez who
(08:26):
talked about a lack of accountability with the Yankees, and
so that was one of the guys that did step
out of the brotherhood of Major League Baseball players to
say that. So then of course what happens is you
got the Lance Lynn huffing and puffing and going over
there and rushing like a knight in shining shining armor
(08:48):
to defend Aaron Boone like he's the pope. The Aaron
Boone's now the pope, and we need to defend the pope.
Guess what, lance Lynn, Guess what you pitched? I went
back on looks. I remember he pitched for the Yankees,
but not veryly. Two months, two two months, So again
(09:08):
I don't think there's some kind of authority two months
on how Aaron Boone handles a clubhouse? And what has
it been seven years later something like that, I believe,
seven years I think I think.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
It was in twenty eighteen, I believe.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
So, look, if your players cannot handle a little bit
of public criticism in New York, if you can't handle
the heat of to me, that's the real Yankees, is
calling out in competence, that's the real Yankees. Then you're
just simply not built to play for the Yankees. And really,
(09:47):
to me, what Lancelyn is saying is I psycho analyze
what Lancelin is saying. He's saying, these guys are so
soft they can't handle legit, big boy criticism, and that
that's just the way it is. They're a team of
cream pies. They're all a bunch of cream pies, and
they just can't handle it, right. And you know, maybe
they shouldn't be playing for the Yankees anyway. I'm not
a Yankee fan by any means. I'm obviously not a
(10:08):
Yankee fan. I'm just as an outside, independent observer. That's
the way I look at it. It's like, sh don't
hurt the player's feelings, don't it's being handled in private,
that's what That's what they're saying. So there you go.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Now I get it.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
It's the player protecting player, player protecting former manager lanceln
I got to stand by my mind and all that stuff.
But defending Aaron Boone like he's some kind of mob
boss is unbecoming, Like he can't be questioned, like what
are you doing? It's just that that argument. You weren't there, man,
(10:48):
you were not there. Come on now, second me. I
gotta get something off my chest. So the trade deadline
was last week. Baseball's trade deadline has coming gone and
chatter about addition and subtraction from respective teams, and the
phrase pipeline was used quite a bit at the trade deadline.
(11:12):
So what is your takeaway? What is your takeaway on
the Major League Baseball pipeline that has been much discussed
in the sport At the trade deadline, and in the
days that have happened since the trade deadline. So we'll
just call it like we see it. We'll keep it simple.
We're not gonna get too in the in the weeds here.
(11:34):
The Major League Baseball pipeline is a scam that Bernie
Madeoff wishes he had cooked up.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
It's that biggest scam. It's a Ponzi scheme.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
It's baseball's answer to the NBA and the NFL Draft,
the hype machine that those two things have become over
the years. Except here's the deal, and talk about baseball.
The baseball world. No one actually cares about the Major
League Baseball Draft. No one watches it. Nobody gives its
friends and family watch it.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
And real baseball nerds, and there's not that many baseball nerds.
It's a nothing burger. It's a total non event, the
baseball Draft. So instead to their credit, I'm gonna credit
Rob Manford. I'm a critic of Rob manfor I'm a
credit Rob Manford. These baseball weasels have cooked up this
fugazy event here. It's so ridiculous. I don't know event
(12:31):
is the right way to describe it. But the pipeline,
and so I guess it's not a singular event. The pipeline.
They've been able to package it top one hundred prospects,
top prospects for each team, and Boom goes to the dynamite.
Boom goes the dynamite. So it is now a It
(12:52):
went from ground beef. It went from ground beef, and
now it's a porterhouse steak. The pipeline is the ultimate marketing.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
Hustle for dumb people.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
And I give Baseball credit because every business is trying
to get that dumb money take advantage of stupid people.
The pipeline is so perfect. It is so perfect for
this because you either act like you're building something by
getting a bunch of players out of the pipeline.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Whoa.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
And then every year here's my favorite part. Every year,
every single year, there is a new batch of can't
miss guys right every year, and every player in the pipeline. O,
this guy's a top ten player.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
He's going to be the next Aaron Drudge.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
He's got that guy over there, he's got five tool potential,
five tool potential.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Guess what.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
It's a guessing game. It's a guessing game. Are you
talking about a lot of those players, and we talked
about something. The Phillies traded an eighteen year old catcher
who is batting two fifty in Clearwater, Florida, to the
Minnesota Twins for their twins closer, and somehow stupid people
are like, well, that's a great train for the Minnesota Twins.
(14:09):
They got an eighteen year old catcher hitting two fifty
and clear Water, and you traded a guy that throws
bullets in right now in the big leagues as a closer,
and nobody knows anything about these young players. It is
the equivalent of buying the old scratcher ticket and telling
everyone said, well, listen, I am now set for life
(14:30):
because I bought a scratcher ticket and I haven't even
scratched it yet, but I'm telling you I am set
for life.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
I am.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
It's their version of a golden ticket, A golden ticket,
a golden.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Take, a golden tickets.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
And you see that's the part that drives me bonkers.
Benny bonkers. I go Benny bokers on this right to
crazy crazy town.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
True Trube.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
We just traded our all stars shorts and one hundred
and fifty million dollars contract for three single a lottery pick, guys,
that's it. But don't worry, they're top prospects in the pipeline.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Okay, pollice please.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
And this is what every single team does at the deadline.
They all want to the bad teams. They want to
shed payroll, they want to wave the white flag. And
they just slap on the excuse. They say, listen, got
to build through the pipeline. We're doing the pipeline, right,
I say, ban the pipeline. The pipeline is the vip
(15:42):
wristband of Major League Baseball. That's the MLB pipeline. It
lets you into every excuse imaginable, any kind of excuse
you want, and people, dumb people fall for it all
the time. They do every time. The fans eat it up,
a lot of them. Hey we got the number four
farm system in baseball. Now we oh, it's so exciting.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Great.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
How many games does that win for your big league team?
I'm asking for a friend, do we know?
Speaker 1 (16:12):
No?
Speaker 3 (16:13):
But this is one of those things I've learned over
there is you can always, in sports, especially in baseball,
sell the future. You can always sell the future is
going to be better, and people by default are usually
optimistic about the future.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
People always buy it. There's also no accountability.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
No one ever goes back and checks the receipts and says, well,
you traded so and so who is good for so
and so? Who blows and never made it to the
major leagues?
Speaker 1 (16:40):
What's up with that?
Speaker 3 (16:41):
No one ever goes back and looks they don't. Meanwhile,
the big league team sucks an unwatchable product, losing ninety
five games a year. But you've got this can't miss
kiddo two years away in Double A or four years
away and a ball or it's a Ponzi skin. It's
a Bernie madeoff Ponzi scheme. So yeah, that's my thought
(17:04):
on the pipeline. That's it right, and again my favorite part,
it resets every year. The San Diego Padres traded pretty
much every one of their Triple A and Double A players,
and guess what when the pipeline is reset, they will
have a top ten, top fifteen, top twenty, top thirty
players in the pipeline and they'll have a brand new
(17:27):
list of players to get rid of.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
That's the way that it works, you know, all.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Right, now, final fock quickly to Jackson will go to
the NFL and On the first depth chart of the
new season, the Jaguars have listed their number two overall pick,
Travis Hunter, thank you, Leper count as the starting wide
(17:52):
receiver and a second string defensive back. So what is
your level of interest? What is your level of interest
in this particular? So on this one, I will be
Benny Bright's side. I actually my level of interest is
off the charts on this one. I am optimistic. I
will be the optimistic guy on Travis Hunter. This is
the most interesting thing the Jaguars have ever done as
(18:18):
a franchise. It is, and I hope it works out
because what it will lead to. Right now, it's like
a symbolic thing and all that stuff, But what it
will lead to, Travis Hunter is attempting to break the mold.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
To break the mold.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Here, and not just break the mold. He's really lighting
the whole thing on fire. And I'm there for and
he's telling the NFL world, come stop me, bro is
what he's saying. So he's got a chance to either
revolutionize the modern NFL or crash and burn and be
(18:52):
a cautionary tale. There's really no middle ground on this.
There's really no middle ground. So I'm drinking the kool eight.
I'm guzzling the kool aid on this one. And he
has a chance Travis Hunter to be a total wrecking ball.
You agree with me on that. He's not just fast,
He's a playmaker in college, a Heisman guy, explosive. So
(19:13):
this is where Pop Warner meets the NFL. Pop Warner
meets the NFL. It's like turning on the Madden Franchise
mode all the way up up by the way and
just letting a rip. Was letting a rip very street
blows you hope you hope it doesn't go that way.
But this is not a gadget guy. This don't confuse
(19:34):
this guy with the gadget guy. This is not gadget guy.
This is not that guy. He's not Taysom Hill. That's
a gadget guy. That's not what this is. He's trying
to be Dion and then debo at the same time,
a good debo that one year the debo was good.
We've had multiple generations now in the NFL of specialization specially,
(19:55):
I feel like my generation was the last one where
you were expected to play multiple positions and all that.
And even in my generation, like there were people that were,
oh no, youhud only play one thing and be good
at one.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Thing and all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
But the whole league in modern NFL has been built
on do one.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Job and do it well. One thing. That's all.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
However, the reason this could be boom time if it
does work for traps. Every business I know, the one
I work for always trying to cut corners and looking
for a bargain. Everyone's looking for a bargain. So this
is the ultimate and you got to do more than
one thing to help the company out. And so this
is a guy that can give you two for one,
the two for one special. You get a defensive backend
(20:36):
wide receiver for the price of one. And every team
has been indoctrinated for years with analytics, and you got
to have value added. And so Jacksonville, which is going
to throwaway franchise who they all cares about them, but
why not this kid?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
And it's perfect.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
If it works, everyone's going to try to copy it
because you've got that playto factor where you know Travis Hunter,
he's like Plato. Whatever you need, you can just plug
the Plato in, it'll morph into it. Then you got
injuries on the secondary boom he's cute. He's wide defensive
back in one and he'n be wide receiver one and
the whole thing and plug and play and great and
(21:18):
got to back it up, got to back it up
on the field. But I'm excited for it. It is
the Ben Mahlor Show. If you would like to be part,

Speaker 3 (23:42):
Back to where we go, and here is the malor
riddle of the day. So Loca celebrated the massive contract
extension he got recently with the Lakers by celebrating with blank,
with blank, that is the question, and what is the answer?
(24:02):
And let's see Stevie Meatballs in Florida says he celebrated
with La Street rioters throwing chunks of curb from downtown. Well,
that is a fun activity for people in Los Angeles.
They love to destroy their city and throw it things,
usually police. But no, that is incorrect. What else do
we have? A Mallar feast? A platter of apple fritters,
(24:25):
chicken fingers, poutine and ice cold You who chocolate drink? Well,
the apple fritters look pretty good, like you who? The
poutine solid. The chicken fingers could be a little bit better.
