Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio Final Hour on this Friday. It's a meat Friday.
At that the triggers are fired up, flat tops, smashed cheeseburgers,
French fries, It's National French Friday, and pecan pie.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I think he nailed it, did I finallyed it? Pecan
pecan not pecan pecan pie as well, not to be
confused with pumpkin pie. I'm getting two of those at
the end of the show because I lost the Ronnie James.
All these gms let me down. They all made mistakes.
They let Bronni go in the second round. I thought
(00:40):
he would somehow sneak into the I thought the Phoenix
Suns were going to take him. I'll be honest there.
And I actually talked to somebody who did say I
think they're considering it, and I thought, you know what,
this is a good bet. I bet four pies. That way,
I can give every one of the Dan Nutes a
pine of the face instead, they all get a chance
to blast me. Legends in the paints in the pocket,
(01:02):
showing their skills on the green Stars are coming out
Lake Tahoe. The American Century Championship NBC and Peacock this weekend.
Good morning, if you're watching on Peacock, thank you for
downloading the app. Coming up, we'll talk to Paul Schemes
of the Pirates had a no hitter through seven and
his manager pulled him. We'll talk to him coming up.
He hadn't pitched into the eighth inning this season, and
(01:24):
he's had three games where he's had one oh seven,
one o two and one oh three as far as
pitches now, when you go back to LSU, he had
games at one twenty three, one twenty one, twenty four,
one seventeen, a bunch in the one ten range. But
if you leave him in for the eighth inning, then
you're gonna have to leave him in for the ninth
if he still has a no hitter. But I'm curious
(01:46):
if he had any say in being able to go
back out for the eighth inning. So he'll join us
coming out a little bit. Here's his manager, Derek Shelton,
on why he pulled Paul Schemes yesterday.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
He was tired.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
It really didn't have anything to do with the pitch count.
Everybody makes it about pitch counts. It was about where
he was at. It was about trusting your eyes, trusting him.
When I went and talked to him after that, I
mean he was tired. They did a good job of
wearing him down, and I mean he gave us everything
he had.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Okay, so you take him out. I have no problem
with it. I've said that all morning long. I know
that baseball purist or the old school baseball fans going
to say you got to leave him in. Now, if
he had a perfect game, that might be a little
bit different, or at least I would have had more
of a pause with that to go. But I always
(02:36):
want to check with the catcher. If I'm a manager,
I don't ask the pitcher. I always asked my catcher,
and I asked my catcher away from my pitcher, because
you just don't want that conflict there. Hey, I thought
you were going to have my back here. Why did
you say that you know I'm tiring. I don't know
if he was tiring. The Milwaukee Brewers probably didn't feel
(02:56):
like he was tiring, but that was an impressive performance.
He also looking at the odds for cy Young. I
don't know if he could sneak in and steal the
Cy Young. I think Zach Wheeler is the overwhelming favorite
right now according to DraftKings. But could he have one
(03:17):
of those twelve or thirteen win type seasons where the
stats are just overwhelming. I mean, Jacob de gram won
a couple of Cy youngs, and you know one was
what COVID shortened. But still, you know, you're did he
even get to ten wins one year? Did he win
it with nine? I think I think it was like
eleven and four eleven? Wait, he won two of them,
(03:39):
didn't he? But I don't know. I mean, he was
a dominating pitcher, he just didn't have, you know, a
big win total that we normally equate. I thought Felix
Hernandez for a starting pitcher, didn't he have thirteen wins
one year? Yes, PAULI.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
Jacob mcgram was ten to nine one season, Nino one
to cy Young eer a one point seven, oh, and
then eleven and eight the following seas.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
All right, So Paul Skeins will join us. I don't
know if he's going to start the All Star Game.
Tory Lavello is the Arizona Diamondbacks manager. Now he's the
guy who makes the call. He is the manager for
the National League. I don't know when he'll make the call.
Alan Atlanta called in earlier and said, Chris Sale is
probably starting Sunday for the Braves. He would have been
(04:20):
my choice with twelve wins. Great story, but Paul skeins,
you want to get him out there. You want that
build up for the All Star Game. Thirty two new players,
first time players with becoming All Stars. NFL training camps
will start later next week. You know, college football starts
even earlier in August. You got the Olympics, you got
(04:43):
golf British Open, like, there's things that are starting to
heat up a little bit. This is usually the slowest
time of the year. Therefore, if his story happens now,
it might become bigger because it's now, as opposed to
in a couple of weeks where that story wouldn't see
the light of day. Dion Sanders was talking to the
media Big twelve Media Day and he was talking about,
(05:06):
you know, his team expectations, is he judged differently And
here's the question, and then Deon Sanders answer, do you.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Feel an obligation with whom you are to perform at
a higher level or coach at higher level?
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Yeah, like I yes.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Yes, I'm judged on a different scale. My wins are
totally different than your wins. Your wins, you just judging football.
That's why I have to start out and give you
education and academics and so forth. I have to give
you those things so you understand there's a greater scope.
I can't win nine games, and we our GPA suffers.
(05:49):
Our GPA can't be high, but we lose another eight games.
We can't not go and grab high school players, and
you got a bunch of guys in the portal, out
of the portal that is getting concerated. My wins are different.
We have to win in every area. That's the way
we're judged. I'm cool with that because we we we
(06:11):
come a little different.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Okay. Is he judged differently, Yes, but then he's also
judged favorably. Who was the you know college you know,
the face of college football? Was he the sportsman of
the year by Sports Illustrated? They won four games? So
you tell me that you're treated differently. The expectations are different.
You're also treated differently in a positive light. When's the
(06:36):
last time a team said, hey, how about our GPA?
Like stop, that's silly. I remember, was it Randy Shannon
at the University of Miami. He had an unbelievable grade
point average at the U. It doesn't matter. Stop sees
get degrees. Dion, Yes, you're judged differently. You got more
(07:00):
more positive media attention than any coach has gotten, probably
in careers. Last year, Game Day, big noon kickoff, all
former players out there, all your buddies in the media
having you on first take and undisputed and stop. You're
not a victim here. You wanted the spotlight. You got
(07:23):
the spotlight, and with the spotlight comes expectations. You kept
saying to people, you believe now. You believe now. Right,
you called out ed Warder in front of everybody, the media.
You believe now. And I said, they're not a good team.
They have a couple of good players who will play
in the NFL. They didn't have depth. So when they won, ah,
(07:47):
we beat TCU, Oh my god, they were twenty point underdogs.
They still weren't a good team. And then the Colorado
State game, unbelievable. It's Colorado State. But people can buying
into this. Dion knew that he didn't have a great team.
He had the worst offensive line in football. You start
(08:09):
out usually what games you can win. Then all of
a sudden they got into games that they weren't going
to win. And don't tell me about GPA. If you're
taking transfer portal kids and nobody's worried about education, I mean,
I hate saying it, but it's true. I've never and
any time a coach says, yeah, you know what our GPA,
(08:32):
and I go, I don't care. Nobody cares because you
can have four oh students, but if you have three wins,
you're going to get fired. You can have students who
are all two point zero and go undefeated and you're
going to get a raise. So let's not do that.
(08:52):
You got a lot of attention, more attention than you deserved,
and now we want to I said you better get
him last year because if he gets the chance to
get players and he gets to build a roster and
he's got a better off, he has to have a
better offensive line. His son got hit more than any
other quarterback in football last year, got sacked more than
any other quarterback. That's on Dion. You made all these changes,
(09:19):
you you know, kick guys to the curb. You get hype.
Kids want to play for you, you got attention, You're magnetic.
Now we want to see can you coach, can you recruit?
Can you do it year in and year out? But yes,
are you judged differently? Yes, mostly in a positive way
(09:39):
so far. And it wasn't one of those. And I
think Dion probably feels this way that it was. People
are waiting to say, ah see, I'm just trying to
be realistic. He came on the show, he's a great interview.
I didn't I didn't like how he ran off his players.
I didn't think they were a very good team, even
(10:00):
good team last year. His son can play in the NFL.
Hunter can play in the NFL. He's probably got three
or four players. Takes a whole lot more than that.
And what did I point out yesterday? The great teams
have great offensive lines. Can't go wrong. History shows great
offensive line. Now you have a chance. Teams that compete
(10:23):
for the national championship the last five years. Look at
Georgia's offensive line, Alabama's offensive line, Michigan's offensive line. Got
a good offensive line. You can compete. Colorado did not.
So Yes, expectations, Yes, you got in the spotlight, Yes,
but you wanted it. You asked for it, You needed
it because you want to build a roster, and that
(10:44):
was a bad, bad football team. That's why the job
was open. So I want to see what he does now.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
Yeah, Pauling, Like you said, though, everything's timing, and last
year the college football season start out. There weren't a
lot of good games to start the season. They had TCU,
who was playing coming off being in the national title
game down in Fort Worth on National TV on Fox
forty five, forty two shootout. They won, and it just
it greenlit the whole story Colorado way earlier than we expected,
(11:13):
and Dion embraced it. Next week National TV, they take
down Nebraska. Next week they take Vaska's not any good, No,
but it just kept the story going.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
People wanted this was wishful reporting, Yeah, but they had
people who loved Dion and wanted him to succeed. But
instead of being honest with the situation, everybody rode that wave.
Everybody did, and then they jumped off.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Everybody those first four games like yeah, we're going out
game days, going back out there.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Okay, they're playing the hits. Until you realized music stopped, yes, see,
well how do you do?
Speaker 7 (11:47):
You are?
Speaker 8 (11:48):
You playing the hits or are you following the story?
And what's the difference. Are you riding the wave or
are you just following what the story is. I think
they were rooting for the story. If you looked at
that team, they were a good team. People didn't want
to believe in that.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
When you went and you started playing good teams, they
were going to lose. They were going to get exposed.
I don't think anybody looked at them. I don't think
a lot of people looked at them logically. I think
they looked at the story and they go, I love
this story and it was great for football. I just
don't I don't think the analysts were being fair with
the talent or lack thereof the disparity between what Colorado
(12:24):
had and the teams they were going to play. Yes,
yeahm are, but.
Speaker 9 (12:29):
At the end of the at the end of the day,
this is a TV show and so if it's bringing,
you know, driving ratings and getting all this attention, best
case scenario for everybody and ESPN and Fox. They were
going to Boulder week in and week out until they weren't.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
I know, and I get it, I get it. It
was a wonderful month of fun months for college football.
But Dion can't feel like he's judged differently when he
was judged differently in a positive light and he was
the Sportsman of the Year. How can you be a victim?
You were embraced and not rightfully. So you created a
(13:09):
buzz for college football, You created storylines for college football.
That doesn't mean that you were a great coach or
that you had a great team, because they didn't. All right,
we'll take a break. Uh, Paul's schemes will join us,
The Pirates, Rookie Pitcher, and more phone calls coming up
on this Meet Friday. We're back after this.

our show.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Quick, knowledgeable and funny, opinionated.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
What are you doing interrupting our promo. Yeah, it wasn't
talking about you.

You took those clips totally of context.
Speaker 10 (14:03):

Today's Mercedes Benz Interview of the Day brought to you
by Mercedes Benz Dream Days. The Mercedes Benz Dream Days
here with the exceptional offers the cle Coop E, class
Sidan C, classid en Clcabriolet going on now through September third.
Learn more at mbusa dot com slash Dream. There were
six shutouts in baseball on Thursday, and that ties the
(14:43):
most in one day this season. One of those shutouts
the Pirates, led by Paul Skens over Milwaukee and Paul
Joins is now struck out eleven and seven no hit innings.
How's the arm today?
Speaker 3 (14:56):
Uh, a little sore. I' moved it around too much,
but uh yeah, it's a little sore.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
But how normal is that?
Speaker 3 (15:04):
It's normal? Yeah, every every time I pitched, just you know,
a little stiffness, little soreness, But I mean that's kind
of how it goes.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
How is your bullpen session before you started yesterday?
Speaker 3 (15:16):
It was good. I had to it took a little
bit to loosen up. I think the day games will
get you sometimes so, but it was a good bullpen,
probably one of the better better ones this year.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Is that always an indicator because some pitchers will say
I was terrible in the bullpen, and then I got
on the mount and I was lights out.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Yeah, I will say having a terrible bullpen seems to
be a good thing. Sometimes you get all the bad
pitches out of the way before you then you go
out there and just just pitch. But sometimes it's a
good thing to have a good bullpen before the game too.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
All right, when did you realize you had something special yesterday?
Speaker 3 (15:51):
Probably after the game, to be honest, in the moment,
it was just kind of going out there and competing
and executing, executing the game plan. But it, Yeah, in
the moment, I wasn't too caught up in it.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
When you go into the dugout, you just completed the
seventh what's the conversation you're having or is there a
conversation you're having with your manager.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
Yeah, I mean I was talking with with our pitching
coach and our game planning coordinator more than more than
a shelter, our manager, but just kind of telling them
how I was feeling, and and you know what I
thought about the hitters, you know, going to the next inning,
and I wasn't really expecting to go back out for
the eighth in general, So it wasn't at all a
(16:35):
surprise when when they pulled me.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
You realized you had a no hitter.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
I did.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yeah, if you had a perfect game, poll, would you
have fought to go back out?
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Probably? I think just just the way that I am.
I think going all the way back to high school,
and then in call too, like you don't if you
get pulled, you get pulled, you're not you're not talking
it in. You're not talking yourself back into the game.
And so that's something that I think I'm getting used
to a little bit, is, uh, we have a little
(17:12):
bit more pull here than I've had in the past.
So maybe going forward I will start to fight. But
that's kind of just not how I not how I
do it.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
I guess, well, I wondered about that because you're a rookie,
So you got to be like, what am I allowed
to do as a rookie and not allowed to do?
Speaker 12 (17:31):
You know?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Does my manager want me to fight to go back
out there? Like, I don't know if you have those
range of emotions thereof am I allowed to say anything here?
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Yeah? And I think it's It's happened a couple of
times already this year where you know, he tells me
I'm out of the game, not not just here but
also in ta A two. You know, he tells me
I'm out of the game. And and then he comes
up to me after the game and he's like, well,
I was expecting you to fight a little bit more.
And next time I think you should fight a little
bit Like, well, you're my manager, You're you're not supposed
(18:03):
to be advocating for me to fight against it, but uh,
I mean it's a little different.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
How important is velocity when you're pitching? When you see
something on the gun where I think you had to
pitch one O two point six or your sinker was
ninety seven? Like are those what kind of indicators are
those for you that you can use in a game?
Speaker 3 (18:24):
If any it's it's really good and a lot of
the stadiums have metrics on the scoreboard too now that
show exactly how your pitches are moving, and and that
that stuff can only help pitchers. I feel like, because
it gives them a it gives us. It gives us
a better indicator of where we are. You know, if
our fast balls flatter, if our you know, my sinker
(18:44):
running more, my slider has more more sweep on it
than normal, then it gives gives me a better indication
of how to use those pitches and where I need
to throw them to get you know, takes and swing
and miss and that kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
When did you know you were great?
Speaker 3 (19:00):
I don't know if I am yet.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
The potential for being great, Yeah, I don't know. It
had to be one of those moments where you go, damn,
I'm pretty good.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Maybe, uh, I think I think we we kind of
started to realize what we had a little bit in
college last year, you know, because I went to to
L s U from Air Force and I was I
was a good pitcher at Air Force, but it wasn't
it wasn't anything crazy, I don't think. And then got
got to L s U and and kind of grew
(19:33):
into my body and learned how to pitch a little bit,
and then you know, started facing college hitters, SEC hitters
and that kind of thing, and and there there was
a little bit more noise around it too, so it changed,
it changed. It changed quick for me really once once
we got into the season at LSU. But that's you know,
(19:53):
college college baseball and pro baseball are very very different things.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Could you have stepped out of l a shoe right
into the major leagues?
Speaker 3 (20:03):
I don't know, especially looking over the past year, because
from LSU I only had one fastball. Now I now
I have two fastballs, and just as a pitcher, it's
a lot easier to pitch with two fastballs than it
is one.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Explain that. Explain the two fastballs.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Yeah, basically, if they're if they're you know, if they're
sitting on heater and they know that it's going to
do this, and then they have to worry about the
breaking balls and that kind of thing. Uh, those are
very different things. But if you're throwing two, you know,
fastballs with some villo and one of them does this
and one of them does this, you it's it's hard
to cover both of them. And so you know, swing
(20:43):
and miss is one thing, but also getting early contact
and and weak contact and ground balls and that kind
of thing. That's what a sinker, uh specifically is good for.
That's why a lot of guys throw sinkers and cutters
and four teams. A lot of guys have three fastballs now.
But I didn't have to fast balls when I was
at LSU, So that was something that came along after
(21:06):
that that I you know, started working on when I
got to pro ball, and but that I think that's
the one thing that has made the transition a lot
easier for me, is just having too fast balls.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
He's Paul Schemes, the Pirates pitcher and on the All
Star team. Did you know, like, are you pitching? Have
you heard anything? If you're pitching in the All Star Game,
that's the plan I'm lined up to do it. That
The you know, the convenient thing about that as I
pitched on a Thursday and the All Star Games on Tuesday,
so that would be a you know, four days rest,
(21:39):
which I haven't done in the big leagues this year,
but I did it in Triple A a couple of times,
so that that which is normal rest for a starting
pitcher for the most part.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
So the plan. The plan is definitely to throw in
the All Star Game.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Where's your power come from?
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Pro my lower half to but one thing on it?
But I think, I think just being strong in the
lower half.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
And then but explain that though to parents or younger
kids who like growing up, I always thought, I mean,
you're throwing with your arm. But you see some of
these guys lower body, especially pitchers. You know Verlander and
Nolan Ryan, and you know all of these guys who
are power pitchers. But explain how you use your lower
(22:24):
body to create that power.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Yeah, I think having lower body strength is one thing,
and lower body power is one thing. And you can
lift a lot of weight and you can, you know,
do all that, but then you know you have that,
and then the sequencing comes into play about how your
lower body is moving in comparison to your upper body,
making sure that it's all timed up because they're you know,
(22:49):
you can you look at bodybuilders and that kind of thing,
and they can, you know, lift a lot of weight,
but they can't sequence their body to throw a baseball,
correct And that that's a that's an extreme example, but
that's kind of the way I think about it. And
then you look at guys that are, you know, super skinny,
and if I had to guess, they probably can't put
(23:11):
up four hundred pounds in a back squad, and they
can still throw a hundred just because they they have
good power output and they sequence their body up right
and everything kind of falls into place.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
You're kind of like a scientist here. I try to
be like, are you fascinated with the science of of
all of this?
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Yeah? I mean I think you can run yourself into
a hole with some of that, and and some guys
do with like, you know, you just go down to
too much of a rabbit hole thinking about that kind
of thing. So I try to find the medium there
of you know, the science of it and then actually
going out there and competing. But everything matters, for sure,
(23:57):
and I think the I've been I've been super blessed
to have a lot of coaches over the past, you know,
a few years who have helped me with my development
and pitching and allowed me to figure it out a
little bit on my own as well as you know,
providing me some directions. So I think I know where
to look and what to look at and what to
not look at.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Just as importantly, what was it like April eighth, twenty
eighteen when you go watch Sho heyo Chani pitch.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
You got the actual date?
Speaker 13 (24:28):
Huh?
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Yeah that was what was that his first? Yeah, home start? Yeah,
it was cool and so I think we got the
tickets because Matt Chapman was on the A's and he
was playing against him, and so we got him through
our our high school coach.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
He struck out twelve in that game.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Yeah, And I remember guys were, you know, swinging at
splitters that are bouncing on the grass and he's throwing
a hundred and and it was just it was it
was cool and I'm it from the stands and but
it is. It is cool to watch the games from
the dotch Do.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
You want to be O Tawny? Do you want to?
I mean, you're you how much do you miss hitting?
Speaker 3 (25:10):
I miss it, but I don't miss how my body
felt when when I was hitting and pitching. And the
amount of work that you have to do to to
you know, stay on the field and stay healthy. It's
a lot which you know, all the power to to
show to do that every single day. That's unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
He's Paul Skin's the fourth pitcher since eighteen ninety three
to record zero hits and ten strikeouts and multiple outings

much thought into it because I've been getting asked about
it a little bit, you know, the past few days,
(28:11):

just because I had, you know, the game yesterday obviously too.
So now I can focus my attention on that. And

Speaker 2 (28:24):
Who are you looking forward to facing that first hitting?

dang good players. So you know, there just.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Folks on getting them out of you know what, You're

It's the starting pitcher. Thanks, thank you, Bud. Paul Skeans,
all right, let's go. We'll always out of this. You know,
that's one of those where somebody's out of their element
(29:36):
when they're being interviewed. If he was on the mound
and I'm at the plate, I would be acting, you know,
probably like he was acting with I don't know. Yeah,
it's awesome, Mom and dad, congratulations as well. That's that's
a great, great honor and well deserving. Yes, Paul.
Speaker 5 (29:54):
Yeah, if you couldn't see that the first ten minutes
you and Paul Skeens, you're discussing baseball nuts and balls.
He's like a scientist, walk can you throw it? And
then when he sees that it's uh, the manager of
the diamonbacks, he kind of has this what's going on here?
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Face?
Speaker 2 (30:06):
Is great? Uh, Todd, good job. Yeah, and thank you

of applause there for MLB for helping us, and Tom

Speaker 3 (32:18):
All right.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Last off, her phone calls what we learn what's in
store tomorrow? And if you're watching on Peacock, we'll go
out to the tragger grills. Also, I have two pies
coming up at the end of the show because of
my bet that I lost, you know, dealing with Bronnie James.
So back after this.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio. And the iHeartRadio WAP.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
What a great way close out the week all schemes
name the National League Starter. Once again, my thanks to
MLB because I was hoping that they would embrace this
and uh, you know, it timed out perfectly with four
days of rest for Paul Skeins to pitch an inning,
Tory Leavello the Diamondbacks calling in, So thank you. That's
(33:05):
a that's live radio and uh great to be part
of it. Stat of the Day was brought to you
by Panini America, the official trading cards of The Dan
Patrick Show. Connecticut head coach Dan Hurley will join us
on the program coming up on Monday. Busy weekend in sports.
You got soccer, you got Wembledon, there's golf. Let's see
(33:28):
anything else wnb A Wimbledon, soccer, golf. Yeah, so it's
a it's an interesting weekend where some of these sports
might normally get buried, but they're going to stand on
their own. They're going to get headlines here. And if
it's Alcarez and Djokovic, is that what the final is?
(33:48):
Is that set?
Speaker 5 (33:49):
Alchaz just ear Muffett. If you're taping it, Alcarez just advanced.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
So okay, witness, Yeah, beat Medvedev? And then when is
jokers Joker playing next? I'm not sure the schedule here,
but it looks like they're on a collision course here.
All right, findal results of the poll question if you
can seek no connor right now.
Speaker 8 (34:09):
If Paul Skeins was throwing a no hitter, sixty five
percent of the audience would leave him in. We also
put up there how much blame does Jonah Hill deserve
for Paul Skein's pitch count?
Speaker 2 (34:23):
Wait, moneyball, you're blaming that Jonah Hill.
Speaker 8 (34:26):
Yes, Jonah Hill personally, it's his fault.
Speaker 2 (34:28):
Does he play that? Yeah? Let me see. Let me
get a couple of phone calls in here. People have
been on hold for a while. Mow in Arizona, Hi, Mo,
what's on your mind? Thanks for holding?
Speaker 11 (34:41):
MORI and Dan Dennett's Yeah, I'm with the sixty five percent.
I can remember Clayton Cursaw a couple of years back.
He's pitching a perfect game eighty pitches and they pull
him just for his health, and then he winds up
getting hurt anyway, So I didn't understand that, and then
follow that up with him going to the playoffs. He's
murdered and they leave them in the game. So you know,
(35:03):
just if it was me, I don't really give a
red ass about Paul's games because I'm a Dodger fans,
but I would have left him in.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
All right, thank you mom. It should It'll be a
Dodger soon, yeah, soon soon. Oh sorry, well she does
enjoy this for now. Sorry. It is from California. So, uh,
let me see Jeff in Detroit. Whoa Jeff is back?
Speaker 11 (35:26):
What up?
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Though?
Speaker 16 (35:27):
One time for Chad Row got a new gig. Man.
When you guys are waking up to do the show,
I'm just going to bed. I got a gig working
for a Sedan company here in Michigan, Number one Sadan Company.
We uh basically do like high end clients. Aiden Hutchison,
you know those type of gaps. I miss you, guys,
I really do miss you guys. Two things, Dan number one,
(35:49):
Bill Belichick. I'm one hundred percent with you on him
not coaching. It seems like the league has gone towards
the more player coaching. I'm thinking that we probably got
more former NFL players that are coaches now than ever before.
You asked fifty people, who's the most winning NFL coach.
I guarantee you forty nine of them will say Bill Belichick.
And with the Jalen Brown situation, quick questions, which one
(36:12):
with a bigger snug Jalen Brown not making the Olympic
team or Isaiah Thomas not making the Olympic team.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
I would say Isaiah Thomas. I would say Isaiah. But
that's you knew that there was friction with Michael Jordan
with that, I don't know if there's friction with anybody
with Jalen Brown. I know people are trying to read into, well,
maybe Jason Tatum didn't want Jalen Brown. I have no
evidence of that, and it's dangerous to throw those things
(36:41):
out there. Jalen Brown should have been on, you know,
the Olympic team. I don't buy into you got to
play that position or you play that kind of role.
And Derek White is a wonderful choice there. Jalen Brown
just had I mean, how good of all you know? Postseason?
(37:01):
He was the Eastern Conference MVP, he was the Finals MVP.
It just felt like that seemed like the next move.
It was obvious that he was going to be on
the Olympic team. Uh, Bryan or Ryan and Queens.
Speaker 7 (37:15):
Hey Ryan, Hey, DP, I got a soccer uh combell
here one for Seaton who's on your short list right
now to manage the US and HISS national team now
that Jurgen Klopp has pulled his name out of the ring.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
And for you, DP, are you willing to put a cause.
Speaker 7 (37:34):
In your contract that states if the United United States
men's national team win the World Cup?
Speaker 2 (37:40):
Will you stay on air for another year for US? Yes?
Speaker 5 (37:47):
That shows your level of confidence or lack of competence.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
I think the same kind of chance that Jurgen Klopp
was going to UH coach the US then team.
Speaker 8 (37:57):
That was that it was unfair to even just present
it as a serious topic by people.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
By the way, I have the odds to win the
Nation League Cy Young right now according to DraftKings Zach Wheeler,
followed by Chris Sayle Rangers Suarez, and then Paul's Skeens
and then Logan web Fire. Yeah, Spain is a favorite
over England, A decent sized favorite that'll be on Sunday.
(38:27):
And in case you're wondering the Mercury Versus the fever
over under for Caitlin Clark in that game is eighteen
and a half points. She's started to play a whole
lot better. As I said, they crammed in a lot
of games early. They wanted to get as you know,
much bang for their buck and TV exposure, and she
was exhausted. So you just finish your college career, go
(38:49):
you know, deep into the tournament, and then you got
a couple of weeks. Next thing you know, you're playing
in the WNBA against experienced players, and she was tired
and then got a little bit of a break. Now
playing against teams that aren't as good, and she's starting
to play a whole lot better, which is exactly what
I thought was going to happen. Justin and Idaho, Hi, Justin,
(39:10):
what's on your mind?
Speaker 12 (39:14):
You do it?
Speaker 2 (39:15):
Hey, Justin, just really quick.
Speaker 12 (39:17):
I wanted to throw a couple phrases in for Cooper flag.
We got dragged for flag, and well, I think your
first one went well enough, but you can go too far.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
I'm going to do in for Cooper ohlright, thank you?
Speaker 12 (39:33):
Justin?
Speaker 8 (39:33):
Yes, saying it doesn't rhyme, but capture the Flag is
making a big run on social media. I think that's
going to be the winner.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Did you guys play Capture the Flag? When you were
growing up a little bit that I did a little bit.
I think I'm I'm a little bit older. We played
Capture the Flag. Is that like kill the carrier?
Speaker 14 (39:52):
That's a totally separate.
Speaker 2 (39:53):
Then yeah, yeah, capture the kill the man with the ball? Yeah,
that's true. Uh, this change for it's history, PAULI. By
the way, the pies are coming up. If you're watching
on Peacock, the bonus segment that we have, that's when
I get the pies to the face. People are like,
where when are you getting the pot of the fait.
I don't know if that's what they sound like, but
it sounded like that's how they would sound, okay, Paul.
Speaker 5 (40:14):
Nineteen oh one, Cy Young of the Red Sox got
career victory three hundred over raided. He won five hundred
eleven games in twenty two years, including seven hundred and
forty nine complete games. In his career, he pitched over
four hundred innings seven times. It's nuts, No, Tommy Johnson,
(40:36):
do you that could find.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
Disco dent because Tommy john wasn't born. Disco Demolition Night
nineteen seventy nine, Comisky, that's when you brought your disco
records and then they exploded, and that's when it all
went to hell in a hand basket. Alrighty uh, what
did I learn today?
Speaker 14 (40:54):
Todd Diamondback's manager Tory Levello announced live on the show
to Paul Skeins he'll be the starting pitcher for the
National League in the All Star Game in Arlington Tuesday night.
Speaker 2 (41:01):

for joining us. Our pleasure to serve you. Talk to
you Monday,
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio Final Hour on this Friday. It's a meat Friday.
At that the triggers are fired up, flat tops, smashed cheeseburgers,
French fries, It's National French Friday, and pecan pie.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I think he nailed it, did I finallyed it? Pecan
pecan not pecan pecan pie as well, not to be
confused with pumpkin pie. I'm getting two of those at
the end of the show because I lost the Ronnie James.
All these gms let me down. They all made mistakes.
They let Bronni go in the second round. I thought
(00:40):
he would somehow sneak into the I thought the Phoenix
Suns were going to take him. I'll be honest there.
And I actually talked to somebody who did say I
think they're considering it, and I thought, you know what,
this is a good bet. I bet four pies. That way,
I can give every one of the Dan Nutes a
pine of the face instead, they all get a chance
to blast me. Legends in the paints in the pocket,
(01:02):
showing their skills on the green Stars are coming out
Lake Tahoe. The American Century Championship NBC and Peacock this weekend.
Good morning, if you're watching on Peacock, thank you for
downloading the app. Coming up, we'll talk to Paul Schemes
of the Pirates had a no hitter through seven and
his manager pulled him. We'll talk to him coming up.
He hadn't pitched into the eighth inning this season, and
(01:24):
he's had three games where he's had one oh seven,
one o two and one oh three as far as
pitches now, when you go back to LSU, he had
games at one twenty three, one twenty one, twenty four,
one seventeen, a bunch in the one ten range. But
if you leave him in for the eighth inning, then
you're gonna have to leave him in for the ninth
if he still has a no hitter. But I'm curious
(01:46):
if he had any say in being able to go
back out for the eighth inning. So he'll join us
coming out a little bit. Here's his manager, Derek Shelton,
on why he pulled Paul Schemes yesterday.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
He was tired.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
It really didn't have anything to do with the pitch count.
Everybody makes it about pitch counts. It was about where
he was at. It was about trusting your eyes, trusting him.
When I went and talked to him after that, I
mean he was tired. They did a good job of
wearing him down, and I mean he gave us everything
he had.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Okay, so you take him out. I have no problem
with it. I've said that all morning long. I know
that baseball purist or the old school baseball fans going
to say you got to leave him in. Now, if
he had a perfect game, that might be a little
bit different, or at least I would have had more
of a pause with that to go. But I always
(02:36):
want to check with the catcher. If I'm a manager,
I don't ask the pitcher. I always asked my catcher,
and I asked my catcher away from my pitcher, because
you just don't want that conflict there. Hey, I thought
you were going to have my back here. Why did
you say that you know I'm tiring. I don't know
if he was tiring. The Milwaukee Brewers probably didn't feel
(02:56):
like he was tiring, but that was an impressive performance.
He also looking at the odds for cy Young. I
don't know if he could sneak in and steal the
Cy Young. I think Zach Wheeler is the overwhelming favorite
right now according to DraftKings. But could he have one
(03:17):
of those twelve or thirteen win type seasons where the
stats are just overwhelming. I mean, Jacob de gram won
a couple of Cy youngs, and you know one was
what COVID shortened. But still, you know, you're did he
even get to ten wins one year? Did he win
it with nine? I think I think it was like
eleven and four eleven? Wait, he won two of them,
(03:39):
didn't he? But I don't know. I mean, he was
a dominating pitcher, he just didn't have, you know, a
big win total that we normally equate. I thought Felix
Hernandez for a starting pitcher, didn't he have thirteen wins
one year? Yes, PAULI.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
Jacob mcgram was ten to nine one season, Nino one
to cy Young eer a one point seven, oh, and
then eleven and eight the following seas.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
All right, So Paul Skeins will join us. I don't
know if he's going to start the All Star Game.
Tory Lavello is the Arizona Diamondbacks manager. Now he's the
guy who makes the call. He is the manager for
the National League. I don't know when he'll make the call.
Alan Atlanta called in earlier and said, Chris Sale is
probably starting Sunday for the Braves. He would have been
(04:20):
my choice with twelve wins. Great story, but Paul skeins,
you want to get him out there. You want that
build up for the All Star Game. Thirty two new players,
first time players with becoming All Stars. NFL training camps
will start later next week. You know, college football starts
even earlier in August. You got the Olympics, you got
(04:43):
golf British Open, like, there's things that are starting to
heat up a little bit. This is usually the slowest
time of the year. Therefore, if his story happens now,
it might become bigger because it's now, as opposed to
in a couple of weeks where that story wouldn't see
the light of day. Dion Sanders was talking to the
media Big twelve Media Day and he was talking about,
(05:06):
you know, his team expectations, is he judged differently And
here's the question, and then Deon Sanders answer, do you.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Feel an obligation with whom you are to perform at
a higher level or coach at higher level?
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Yeah, like I yes.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Yes, I'm judged on a different scale. My wins are
totally different than your wins. Your wins, you just judging football.
That's why I have to start out and give you
education and academics and so forth. I have to give
you those things so you understand there's a greater scope.
I can't win nine games, and we our GPA suffers.
(05:49):
Our GPA can't be high, but we lose another eight games.
We can't not go and grab high school players, and
you got a bunch of guys in the portal, out
of the portal that is getting concerated. My wins are different.
We have to win in every area. That's the way
we're judged. I'm cool with that because we we we
(06:11):
come a little different.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Okay. Is he judged differently, Yes, but then he's also
judged favorably. Who was the you know college you know,
the face of college football? Was he the sportsman of
the year by Sports Illustrated? They won four games? So
you tell me that you're treated differently. The expectations are different.
You're also treated differently in a positive light. When's the
(06:36):
last time a team said, hey, how about our GPA?
Like stop, that's silly. I remember, was it Randy Shannon
at the University of Miami. He had an unbelievable grade
point average at the U. It doesn't matter. Stop sees
get degrees. Dion, Yes, you're judged differently. You got more
(07:00):
more positive media attention than any coach has gotten, probably
in careers. Last year, Game Day, big noon kickoff, all
former players out there, all your buddies in the media
having you on first take and undisputed and stop. You're
not a victim here. You wanted the spotlight. You got
(07:23):
the spotlight, and with the spotlight comes expectations. You kept
saying to people, you believe now. You believe now. Right,
you called out ed Warder in front of everybody, the media.
You believe now. And I said, they're not a good team.
They have a couple of good players who will play
in the NFL. They didn't have depth. So when they won, ah,
(07:47):
we beat TCU, Oh my god, they were twenty point underdogs.
They still weren't a good team. And then the Colorado
State game, unbelievable. It's Colorado State. But people can buying
into this. Dion knew that he didn't have a great team.
He had the worst offensive line in football. You start
(08:09):
out usually what games you can win. Then all of
a sudden they got into games that they weren't going
to win. And don't tell me about GPA. If you're
taking transfer portal kids and nobody's worried about education, I mean,
I hate saying it, but it's true. I've never and
any time a coach says, yeah, you know what our GPA,
(08:32):
and I go, I don't care. Nobody cares because you
can have four oh students, but if you have three wins,
you're going to get fired. You can have students who
are all two point zero and go undefeated and you're
going to get a raise. So let's not do that.
(08:52):
You got a lot of attention, more attention than you deserved,
and now we want to I said you better get
him last year because if he gets the chance to
get players and he gets to build a roster and
he's got a better off, he has to have a
better offensive line. His son got hit more than any
other quarterback in football last year, got sacked more than
any other quarterback. That's on Dion. You made all these changes,
(09:19):
you you know, kick guys to the curb. You get hype.
Kids want to play for you, you got attention, You're magnetic.
Now we want to see can you coach, can you recruit?
Can you do it year in and year out? But yes,
are you judged differently? Yes, mostly in a positive way
(09:39):
so far. And it wasn't one of those. And I
think Dion probably feels this way that it was. People
are waiting to say, ah see, I'm just trying to
be realistic. He came on the show, he's a great interview.
I didn't I didn't like how he ran off his players.
I didn't think they were a very good team, even
(10:00):
good team last year. His son can play in the NFL.
Hunter can play in the NFL. He's probably got three
or four players. Takes a whole lot more than that.
And what did I point out yesterday? The great teams
have great offensive lines. Can't go wrong. History shows great
offensive line. Now you have a chance. Teams that compete
(10:23):
for the national championship the last five years. Look at
Georgia's offensive line, Alabama's offensive line, Michigan's offensive line. Got
a good offensive line. You can compete. Colorado did not.
So Yes, expectations, Yes, you got in the spotlight, Yes,
but you wanted it. You asked for it, You needed
it because you want to build a roster, and that
(10:44):
was a bad, bad football team. That's why the job
was open. So I want to see what he does now.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
Yeah, Pauling, Like you said, though, everything's timing, and last
year the college football season start out. There weren't a
lot of good games to start the season. They had TCU,
who was playing coming off being in the national title
game down in Fort Worth on National TV on Fox
forty five, forty two shootout. They won, and it just
it greenlit the whole story Colorado way earlier than we expected,
(11:13):
and Dion embraced it. Next week National TV, they take
down Nebraska. Next week they take Vaska's not any good, No,
but it just kept the story going.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
People wanted this was wishful reporting, Yeah, but they had
people who loved Dion and wanted him to succeed. But
instead of being honest with the situation, everybody rode that wave.
Everybody did, and then they jumped off.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Everybody those first four games like yeah, we're going out
game days, going back out there.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Okay, they're playing the hits. Until you realized music stopped, yes, see,
well how do you do?
Speaker 7 (11:47):
You are?
Speaker 8 (11:48):
You playing the hits or are you following the story?
And what's the difference. Are you riding the wave or
are you just following what the story is. I think
they were rooting for the story. If you looked at
that team, they were a good team. People didn't want
to believe in that.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
When you went and you started playing good teams, they
were going to lose. They were going to get exposed.
I don't think anybody looked at them. I don't think
a lot of people looked at them logically. I think
they looked at the story and they go, I love
this story and it was great for football. I just
don't I don't think the analysts were being fair with
the talent or lack thereof the disparity between what Colorado
(12:24):
had and the teams they were going to play. Yes,
yeahm are, but.
Speaker 9 (12:29):
At the end of the at the end of the day,
this is a TV show and so if it's bringing,
you know, driving ratings and getting all this attention, best
case scenario for everybody and ESPN and Fox. They were
going to Boulder week in and week out until they weren't.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
I know, and I get it, I get it. It
was a wonderful month of fun months for college football.
But Dion can't feel like he's judged differently when he
was judged differently in a positive light and he was
the Sportsman of the Year. How can you be a victim?
You were embraced and not rightfully. So you created a
(13:09):
buzz for college football, You created storylines for college football.
That doesn't mean that you were a great coach or
that you had a great team, because they didn't. All right,
we'll take a break. Uh, Paul's schemes will join us,
The Pirates, Rookie Pitcher, and more phone calls coming up
on this Meet Friday. We're back after this.

Today's Mercedes Benz Interview of the Day brought to you
by Mercedes Benz Dream Days. The Mercedes Benz Dream Days
here with the exceptional offers the cle Coop E, class
Sidan C, classid en Clcabriolet going on now through September third.
Learn more at mbusa dot com slash Dream. There were
six shutouts in baseball on Thursday, and that ties the
(14:43):
most in one day this season. One of those shutouts
the Pirates, led by Paul Skens over Milwaukee and Paul
Joins is now struck out eleven and seven no hit innings.
How's the arm today?
Speaker 3 (14:56):
Uh, a little sore. I' moved it around too much,
but uh yeah, it's a little sore.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
But how normal is that?
Speaker 3 (15:04):
It's normal? Yeah, every every time I pitched, just you know,
a little stiffness, little soreness, But I mean that's kind
of how it goes.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
How is your bullpen session before you started yesterday?
Speaker 3 (15:16):
It was good. I had to it took a little
bit to loosen up. I think the day games will
get you sometimes so, but it was a good bullpen,
probably one of the better better ones this year.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Is that always an indicator because some pitchers will say
I was terrible in the bullpen, and then I got
on the mount and I was lights out.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Yeah, I will say having a terrible bullpen seems to
be a good thing. Sometimes you get all the bad
pitches out of the way before you then you go
out there and just just pitch. But sometimes it's a
good thing to have a good bullpen before the game too.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
All right, when did you realize you had something special yesterday?
Speaker 3 (15:51):
Probably after the game, to be honest, in the moment,
it was just kind of going out there and competing
and executing, executing the game plan. But it, Yeah, in
the moment, I wasn't too caught up in it.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
When you go into the dugout, you just completed the
seventh what's the conversation you're having or is there a
conversation you're having with your manager.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
Yeah, I mean I was talking with with our pitching
coach and our game planning coordinator more than more than
a shelter, our manager, but just kind of telling them
how I was feeling, and and you know what I
thought about the hitters, you know, going to the next inning,
and I wasn't really expecting to go back out for
the eighth in general, So it wasn't at all a
(16:35):
surprise when when they pulled me.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
You realized you had a no hitter.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
I did.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yeah, if you had a perfect game, poll, would you
have fought to go back out?
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Probably? I think just just the way that I am.
I think going all the way back to high school,
and then in call too, like you don't if you
get pulled, you get pulled, you're not you're not talking
it in. You're not talking yourself back into the game.
And so that's something that I think I'm getting used
to a little bit, is, uh, we have a little
(17:12):
bit more pull here than I've had in the past.
So maybe going forward I will start to fight. But
that's kind of just not how I not how I
do it.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
I guess, well, I wondered about that because you're a rookie,
So you got to be like, what am I allowed
to do as a rookie and not allowed to do?
Speaker 12 (17:31):
You know?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Does my manager want me to fight to go back
out there? Like, I don't know if you have those
range of emotions thereof am I allowed to say anything here?
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Yeah? And I think it's It's happened a couple of
times already this year where you know, he tells me
I'm out of the game, not not just here but
also in ta A two. You know, he tells me
I'm out of the game. And and then he comes
up to me after the game and he's like, well,
I was expecting you to fight a little bit more.
And next time I think you should fight a little
bit Like, well, you're my manager, You're you're not supposed
(18:03):
to be advocating for me to fight against it, but uh,
I mean it's a little different.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
How important is velocity when you're pitching? When you see
something on the gun where I think you had to
pitch one O two point six or your sinker was
ninety seven? Like are those what kind of indicators are
those for you that you can use in a game?
Speaker 3 (18:24):
If any it's it's really good and a lot of
the stadiums have metrics on the scoreboard too now that
show exactly how your pitches are moving, and and that
that stuff can only help pitchers. I feel like, because
it gives them a it gives us. It gives us
a better indicator of where we are. You know, if
our fast balls flatter, if our you know, my sinker
(18:44):
running more, my slider has more more sweep on it
than normal, then it gives gives me a better indication
of how to use those pitches and where I need
to throw them to get you know, takes and swing
and miss and that kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
When did you know you were great?
Speaker 3 (19:00):
I don't know if I am yet.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
The potential for being great, Yeah, I don't know. It
had to be one of those moments where you go, damn,
I'm pretty good.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Maybe, uh, I think I think we we kind of
started to realize what we had a little bit in
college last year, you know, because I went to to
L s U from Air Force and I was I
was a good pitcher at Air Force, but it wasn't
it wasn't anything crazy, I don't think. And then got
got to L s U and and kind of grew
(19:33):
into my body and learned how to pitch a little bit,
and then you know, started facing college hitters, SEC hitters
and that kind of thing, and and there there was
a little bit more noise around it too, so it changed,
it changed. It changed quick for me really once once
we got into the season at LSU. But that's you know,
(19:53):
college college baseball and pro baseball are very very different things.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Could you have stepped out of l a shoe right
into the major leagues?
Speaker 3 (20:03):
I don't know, especially looking over the past year, because
from LSU I only had one fastball. Now I now
I have two fastballs, and just as a pitcher, it's
a lot easier to pitch with two fastballs than it
is one.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Explain that. Explain the two fastballs.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Yeah, basically, if they're if they're you know, if they're
sitting on heater and they know that it's going to
do this, and then they have to worry about the
breaking balls and that kind of thing. Uh, those are
very different things. But if you're throwing two, you know,
fastballs with some villo and one of them does this
and one of them does this, you it's it's hard
to cover both of them. And so you know, swing
(20:43):
and miss is one thing, but also getting early contact
and and weak contact and ground balls and that kind
of thing. That's what a sinker, uh specifically is good for.
That's why a lot of guys throw sinkers and cutters
and four teams. A lot of guys have three fastballs now.
But I didn't have to fast balls when I was
at LSU, So that was something that came along after
(21:06):
that that I you know, started working on when I
got to pro ball, and but that I think that's
the one thing that has made the transition a lot
easier for me, is just having too fast balls.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
He's Paul Schemes, the Pirates pitcher and on the All
Star team. Did you know, like, are you pitching? Have
you heard anything? If you're pitching in the All Star Game,
that's the plan I'm lined up to do it. That
The you know, the convenient thing about that as I
pitched on a Thursday and the All Star Games on Tuesday,
so that would be a you know, four days rest,
(21:39):
which I haven't done in the big leagues this year,
but I did it in Triple A a couple of times,
so that that which is normal rest for a starting
pitcher for the most part.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
So the plan. The plan is definitely to throw in
the All Star Game.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Where's your power come from?
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Pro my lower half to but one thing on it?
But I think, I think just being strong in the
lower half.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
And then but explain that though to parents or younger
kids who like growing up, I always thought, I mean,
you're throwing with your arm. But you see some of
these guys lower body, especially pitchers. You know Verlander and
Nolan Ryan, and you know all of these guys who
are power pitchers. But explain how you use your lower
(22:24):
body to create that power.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Yeah, I think having lower body strength is one thing,
and lower body power is one thing. And you can
lift a lot of weight and you can, you know,
do all that, but then you know you have that,
and then the sequencing comes into play about how your
lower body is moving in comparison to your upper body,
making sure that it's all timed up because they're you know,
(22:49):
you can you look at bodybuilders and that kind of thing,
and they can, you know, lift a lot of weight,
but they can't sequence their body to throw a baseball,
correct And that that's a that's an extreme example, but
that's kind of the way I think about it. And
then you look at guys that are, you know, super skinny,
and if I had to guess, they probably can't put
(23:11):
up four hundred pounds in a back squad, and they
can still throw a hundred just because they they have
good power output and they sequence their body up right
and everything kind of falls into place.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
You're kind of like a scientist here. I try to
be like, are you fascinated with the science of of
all of this?
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Yeah? I mean I think you can run yourself into
a hole with some of that, and and some guys
do with like, you know, you just go down to
too much of a rabbit hole thinking about that kind
of thing. So I try to find the medium there
of you know, the science of it and then actually
going out there and competing. But everything matters, for sure,
(23:57):
and I think the I've been I've been super blessed
to have a lot of coaches over the past, you know,
a few years who have helped me with my development
and pitching and allowed me to figure it out a
little bit on my own as well as you know,
providing me some directions. So I think I know where
to look and what to look at and what to
not look at.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Just as importantly, what was it like April eighth, twenty
eighteen when you go watch Sho heyo Chani pitch.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
You got the actual date?
Speaker 13 (24:28):
Huh?
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Yeah that was what was that his first? Yeah, home start? Yeah,
it was cool and so I think we got the
tickets because Matt Chapman was on the A's and he
was playing against him, and so we got him through
our our high school coach.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
He struck out twelve in that game.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
Yeah, And I remember guys were, you know, swinging at
splitters that are bouncing on the grass and he's throwing
a hundred and and it was just it was it
was cool and I'm it from the stands and but
it is. It is cool to watch the games from
the dotch Do.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
You want to be O Tawny? Do you want to?
I mean, you're you how much do you miss hitting?
Speaker 3 (25:10):
I miss it, but I don't miss how my body
felt when when I was hitting and pitching. And the
amount of work that you have to do to to
you know, stay on the field and stay healthy. It's
a lot which you know, all the power to to
show to do that every single day. That's unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
He's Paul Skin's the fourth pitcher since eighteen ninety three
to record zero hits and ten strikeouts and multiple outings
in a single season. He's six and zero. ERA is
one point nine to zero.
Speaker 14 (25:42):
Yes, Tom, We've just received a call from Arizona Diamondbacks
manager Tory Lavello wanted to check in with you and
Paul Night.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Well, Tory's the National League All Star manager. Hey, what's up?
Speaker 12 (25:57):

game Craves. You know, it's it's such a great story.

(26:54):
And uh, you know, I'll be honored to uh be
your manager, and I'm gonna be honored to be watching
you for your first pitch. Super excited about that.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
Are you accepting this, Paul? Okay, I just wanted to
make sure we got to get it official here, Tory
is Paul on a pitch count?
Speaker 13 (27:14):
You know, Well, we'll see what's going on. Yeah, we
gotta love the pitch to get through. So listen, dad,
that's a tough question for me right now, but we
got to love of guys get through. Paul's getting He's

for us and we'll take it from there.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
It's awesome you called in. Thank you, toy, Thank you

a big deal. You're you're starting the All Star game,
Like you want to tell your parents? You want to

Speaker 3 (27:49):
Yeah? I think my parents are watching the show right now.
But so, but you know, I'll give him a call after. Yeah,
that that's cool. Uh, And I'll tell get more excited
leading up to the game, hopefully I have a full
night sleep before. But yeah, I haven't. I haven't put
much thought into it because I've been getting asked about
it a little bit, you know, the past few days,
(28:11):
and I haven't been given much much thought into it
just because I had, you know, the game yesterday obviously too.
So now I can focus my attention on that. And
that's pretty dang cool.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Who are you looking forward to facing that first hitting?
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Oh? Man, I can't can't put one guy above the
others because that you Uh yeah, I'm guessing it's gonna
be Henderson, Soto and Judge. So I'm they're all pretty
dang good players. So you know, there just.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Folks on getting them out of you know what, You're
not this flustered. You don't get flustered when you're on

that's one of those where somebody's out of their element
(29:36):
when they're being interviewed. If he was on the mound

probably like he was acting with I don't know. Yeah,
it's awesome, Mom and dad, congratulations as well. That's that's
a great, great honor and well deserving. Yes, Paul.
Speaker 5 (29:54):
Yeah, if you couldn't see that the first ten minutes

Speaker 2 (34:23):
Wait, moneyball, you're blaming that Jonah Hill.
Speaker 8 (34:26):
Yes, Jonah Hill personally, it's his fault.
Speaker 2 (34:28):
Does he play that? Yeah? Let me see. Let me
get a couple of phone calls in here. People have
been on hold for a while. Mow in Arizona, Hi, Mo,
what's on your mind? Thanks for holding?
Speaker 11 (34:41):
MORI and Dan Dennett's Yeah, I'm with the sixty five percent.
I can remember Clayton Cursaw a couple of years back.
He's pitching a perfect game eighty pitches and they pull
him just for his health, and then he winds up
getting hurt anyway, So I didn't understand that, and then
follow that up with him going to the playoffs. He's
murdered and they leave them in the game. So you know,
(35:03):
just if it was me, I don't really give a
red ass about Paul's games because I'm a Dodger fans,
but I would have left him in.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
All right, thank you mom. It should It'll be a
Dodger soon, yeah, soon soon. Oh sorry, well she does
enjoy this for now. Sorry. It is from California. So, uh,
let me see Jeff in Detroit. Whoa Jeff is back?
Speaker 11 (35:26):
What up?
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Though?
Speaker 16 (35:27):
One time for Chad Row got a new gig. Man.
When you guys are waking up to do the show,
I'm just going to bed. I got a gig working
for a Sedan company here in Michigan, Number one Sadan Company.
We uh basically do like high end clients. Aiden Hutchison,
you know those type of gaps. I miss you, guys,
I really do miss you guys. Two things, Dan number one,
(35:49):
Bill Belichick. I'm one hundred percent with you on him
not coaching. It seems like the league has gone towards
the more player coaching. I'm thinking that we probably got
more former NFL players that are coaches now than ever before.
You asked fifty people, who's the most winning NFL coach.
I guarantee you forty nine of them will say Bill Belichick.
And with the Jalen Brown situation, quick questions, which one
(36:12):
with a bigger snug Jalen Brown not making the Olympic
team or Isaiah Thomas not making the Olympic team.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
I would say Isaiah Thomas. I would say Isaiah. But
that's you knew that there was friction with Michael Jordan
with that, I don't know if there's friction with anybody
with Jalen Brown. I know people are trying to read into, well,
maybe Jason Tatum didn't want Jalen Brown. I have no
evidence of that, and it's dangerous to throw those things
(36:41):
out there. Jalen Brown should have been on, you know,
the Olympic team. I don't buy into you got to
play that position or you play that kind of role.
And Derek White is a wonderful choice there. Jalen Brown
just had I mean, how good of all you know? Postseason?
(37:01):
He was the Eastern Conference MVP, he was the Finals MVP.
It just felt like that seemed like the next move.
It was obvious that he was going to be on
the Olympic team. Uh, Bryan or Ryan and Queens.
Speaker 7 (37:15):
Hey Ryan, Hey, DP, I got a soccer uh combell
here one for Seaton who's on your short list right
now to manage the US and HISS national team now
that Jurgen Klopp has pulled his name out of the ring.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
And for you, DP, are you willing to put a cause.
Speaker 7 (37:34):
In your contract that states if the United United States
men's national team win the World Cup?
Speaker 2 (37:40):
Will you stay on air for another year for US? Yes?
Speaker 5 (37:47):
That shows your level of confidence or lack of competence.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
I think the same kind of chance that Jurgen Klopp
was going to UH coach the US then team.
Speaker 8 (37:57):
That was that it was unfair to even just present
it as a serious topic by people.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
By the way, I have the odds to win the
Nation League Cy Young right now according to DraftKings Zach Wheeler,
followed by Chris Sayle Rangers Suarez, and then Paul's Skeens
and then Logan web Fire. Yeah, Spain is a favorite
over England, A decent sized favorite that'll be on Sunday.
(38:27):
And in case you're wondering the Mercury Versus the fever
over under for Caitlin Clark in that game is eighteen
and a half points. She's started to play a whole
lot better. As I said, they crammed in a lot
of games early. They wanted to get as you know,
much bang for their buck and TV exposure, and she
was exhausted. So you just finish your college career, go
(38:49):
you know, deep into the tournament, and then you got
a couple of weeks. Next thing you know, you're playing
in the WNBA against experienced players, and she was tired
and then got a little bit of a break. Now
playing against teams that aren't as good, and she's starting
to play a whole lot better, which is exactly what
I thought was going to happen. Justin and Idaho, Hi, Justin,
(39:10):
what's on your mind?
Speaker 12 (39:14):
You do it?
Speaker 2 (39:15):
Hey, Justin, just really quick.
Speaker 12 (39:17):
I wanted to throw a couple phrases in for Cooper flag.
We got dragged for flag, and well, I think your
first one went well enough, but you can go too far.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
I'm going to do in for Cooper ohlright, thank you?
Speaker 12 (39:33):
Justin?
Speaker 8 (39:33):
Yes, saying it doesn't rhyme, but capture the Flag is
making a big run on social media. I think that's
going to be the winner.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Did you guys play Capture the Flag? When you were
growing up a little bit that I did a little bit.
I think I'm I'm a little bit older. We played
Capture the Flag. Is that like kill the carrier?
Speaker 14 (39:52):
That's a totally separate.
Speaker 2 (39:53):
Then yeah, yeah, capture the kill the man with the ball? Yeah,
that's true. Uh, this change for it's history, PAULI. By
the way, the pies are coming up. If you're watching
on Peacock, the bonus segment that we have, that's when
I get the pies to the face. People are like,
where when are you getting the pot of the fait.
I don't know if that's what they sound like, but
it sounded like that's how they would sound, okay, Paul.
Speaker 5 (40:14):
Nineteen oh one, Cy Young of the Red Sox got
career victory three hundred over raided. He won five hundred
eleven games in twenty two years, including seven hundred and
forty nine complete games. In his career, he pitched over
four hundred innings seven times. It's nuts, No, Tommy Johnson,
(40:36):
do you that could find.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
Disco dent because Tommy john wasn't born. Disco Demolition Night
nineteen seventy nine, Comisky, that's when you brought your disco
records and then they exploded, and that's when it all
went to hell in a hand basket. Alrighty uh, what
did I learn today?
Speaker 14 (40:54):
