Speaker 6 (02:46):
James Wood has burst onto the scene in the Big Leagues,
and as he approaches the fifty game mark in the
Big Leagues, he is still displaying spectacular hitting qualities that
he was showing from Game one. With only a few
new seasons of high level baseball to develop, James Wood
has had lack less or defense so far, but what
he lacks on defense he makes up for on offense.
(03:10):
A one point thirty weight runs creative plus is elite
for a rookie and bordering on elite for any player.
His twelve point eight walk percentage as a rookie also
shows his veteran level patients even at just twenty one
years old. With a three point fifty three expected weight
on bass average, he has shown that the production numbers
(03:33):
are no result of luck, as his bat at ball
numbers match the outcomes so far. Once he raises his
poll percentage from the twenty eight point seven ag he's
currently at to around the thirty nine point one percentage
he had at Triple A, he will be a force
to be reckoned with. With a zero point six fangrass
(03:53):
War in just fifty games, what is proving to be
a spectacular and reliable player, and with more experience and
development to the rest of his game, he and CJ.
Abrams will be ready to take over the league.

This spread Quinn Tine with Brett's reps for MLB Bro
Show podcast the Mixtape.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
That Sweet Lefty Swing.
Speaker 7 (04:16):
It doesn't just belong to Ken Griffy, although he, of
course has some greatness, that's for sure. There's two guys
out there, though, who I feel don't get talked about
as much as they should.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
One is a Hall of Famer.
Speaker 7 (04:28):
And the other has some really good numbers that I
think are Hall of Fame worthy. One did it for
eighteen seasons and the other did it for nineteen seasons.
One ended his career with the Toronto Blue Jays in
nineteen eighty five and the other began his career with
the Blue Jays in nineteen eighty six.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Who are we talking about? Let's find out. Albert Oliver
Junior made his Big League debut in.
Speaker 7 (04:53):
Nineteen sixty eight for the Pittsburgh Pirates, and before you
know it, he was a regular in that Pirates lineup
up in the nineteen sixty nine Rookie of the Year balloting,
and he was an All Star for the Pirates three times.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Nineteen seventy one was truly a banner year.
Speaker 7 (05:10):
He held Pittsburgh to a game seven victory over the
Baltimore Orioles.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Yes, they were World champions.
Speaker 7 (05:16):
Oliver, he was a contributor, played first base as well
as all three outfield positions.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
Didn't matter where he played. The Man could hit. Frederick
Stanley McGriff.
Speaker 7 (05:28):
He made his Big League debut in nineteen eighty six,
and he was about power. Thirty four, thirty six, and
thirty five were his home run totals in nineteen eighty eight,
eighty nine, and ninety A fantastic gear. In nineteen eighty nine,
he led the league in home runs the Man and
he was on his way to winning a Silver Slugger
Award Blue Jays. They were division champions that year and
(05:52):
McGriff hit the first ever homer at sky Dome. The
beat continued for Oliver when he moved over to the
American League.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
He played for the Texas.
Speaker 7 (06:01):
Rangers four seasons, two All Star appearances, and he drove
in one hundred and seventeen runs in nineteen eighty.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
He also picked up two Silver Slubber Awards. While he
was with Texas, McGriff.
Speaker 7 (06:14):
He continued his tier as. In a three year span
with the Padres and Braves, he averaged thirty five home
runs and one hundred and four runs batted in, capping
seven straight seasons of at least thirty homers or more
Silver Slubber Awards, all Star Games, you name it, McGriff
was winning Oliver.
Speaker 4 (06:33):
He went back to the National League in nineteen eighty two.
Speaker 7 (06:36):
He had a couple of fine seasons for the Montreal Expos.
He banged out two hundred and four hits in nineteen
eighty two, drove in one hundred and nine runs, and
won the National League Batting Crown with a three to
thirty one batting average.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
He was the starting.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
First baseman in the nineteen eighty three All Star Game
as well.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
Traded after that season, he was never a regular again.
Speaker 7 (06:59):
His career ended in Game seven of the American League
Championship Series against Kansas City, when he was pinch hit
four in the fifth inning by fellow.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
Bro Cliff Johnson.
Speaker 8 (07:08):
McGriff he just kept on hitting nineteen ninety nine and
two thousand he combined for fifty nine home runs and
two hundred and ten runs batted in for Tampa Bay
and another All.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Star Games the Game.
Speaker 7 (07:21):
It caught up with McGriff in mid two thousand and four.
But what a career. He had five time All Star,
three times Silver Slugger winner, He led the league in
homers twice, and was a World Series winner.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
How does Al Oliver compare to this Hall of Famer?
Speaker 7 (07:37):
Well, he had two hundred and sixty fewer home runs
and two hundred and thirty four fewer runs batted in.
He did play one season less than McGriff, but he
does have two hundred and fifty three more hits and
a career batting average of three to zero three, while
McGriff ended his career at to eighty four. I don't
have a vote, but if I did, I'd love to
(07:59):
see Al Oliver in Cooperstown.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Al Oliver, Kenny Lofton, Albert Bell, Dave Stewart.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Man, Bill Maddenlock just a couple of the bros you
should be more heavily considered for the Hall of Fame.
But in the meantime, in between times, we focused on
the stars of today as well, and Justin Bittrulli is
here with his weekly black Age Report.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
Let's Go Blues.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
MLB Bro Show podcast the Mixtape Volume twenty one, twenty
twenty four seats.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
What's Up Everybody?
Speaker 9 (08:41):
This is justin Petruleau with the black Age Report on
the MLV bro Show Podcast mixtape. Here's where you get
the latest of a mellenated malt marauders for showing a
precision and popping out all across the big leagues. So
let's check the report. The Stro Show is officially back.
Marcus Struman was on the Hill on August twenty fifth
versus the Rockies and the three runs on five innings
(09:01):
pitch and struck out five batters. Stroman has been very
strong in his last three starts, as he's two to zero,
averaging a two point twenty.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Five ERA in this stretch.
Speaker 9 (09:10):
His next schedule start will be on Friday, August thirtieth
against the Cardinals at Yankee Stadium. Blackjack Flarerty earned his
first ross as a Dodger on August twenty seventh when
he went up against his former team, the Baltimore Orioles
in LA. He managed to only give up three runs
on six innings, but the Dodgers' offense only produced two
runs on the day. Flerdy did take a comeback up
(09:30):
to the risk during his outing, but it appears it's
not too serious and he shouldn't miss any time. He
now has a three point four to nine ERA in
five games for his new team and a three point
oh seven ERA overall for the season. Joe Ross has
had a very solid stretch of games coming out of
the bullpen for the Brewers over the past two weeks.
Ross has made appearances for the team four times, either
going one or two innings per appearance and is not
(09:52):
allowed to run in the stretch. Originally a back end
starter for the club, Ross has appeared in seven games
central urning from a two month hit on the IL,
with six of the seven games being as a reliever.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
With Milwaukee getting.
Speaker 9 (10:04):
Closer and closer to the playoffs, Ross has eased into
his new role with the team and it looks like
he'll be counted on in later innings in October. The
San Francisco Giants announced on August twenty seventh that Jordan
Hicks would be placed on the fifteen day IL with
a right shoulder inflammation. Before that, Hicks was having a
terrific August coming out of the pen, as he only
given up one run in the seven appearances he's made
(10:26):
throughout the month, even recording his first.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Save of the season.
Speaker 9 (10:29):
With the extent of the injury uncertain and the Giants
postseason windows slowly closing, it's possible that Higgs's twenty twenty
four season could be over. That's the Blackie support for
this week. This is JP the rook now back to
the mix.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Ryan keep firing. You're really the best.

on the year. Let's get it progressive phil Saturday, where
we had the Pittsburgh Pirates versus.
Speaker 6 (10:54):
The Cleveland Guardians.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
Guardian's coming to the weekend after having a rough week
going against Kansas City, their backs the wall in that
tight ale central race Minnesota, Kansas City and Cleveland will
come down to the end, but this weekend on Saturday,
the Pirates skip bound Sunday, the Guardians get back to
their winning ways and come away with the victory.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
On Saturday, Ryan keep firing.
Speaker 5 (11:15):
The last match up takes us to Philadelphia Citizen Bank
Park Sunday, where we have with the Atlanta Braids versus
the Philadelphia Phillies. Rose Michael Harris should be back in
the lineup after getting plucked in a hand over the weekend.
There should be a great game Sunday night baseball, the
bright lights, the stars come out. I'm taking Philly and
the close one to take care of business at home
as they come away with the victory over the Braves.
