surprise, he also had a starterhit the injured list, and it's Cody
Bradford. Man too good to betrue. He's been wonderful. Man.
(03:22):
Now, I'm not really not oneto get bent out of shape over stuff
this early in the season. Imean, we're in the middle of April,
for crying out loud, and ifthings don't go right I usually don't
get bent out of shape too bad, but man, this hurts. This
team suck. We're in first placeat eight and eight. Here is the
(03:45):
lineup for today. The picking order, by the way, is Mike,
Me, Julie Grubs, the Glenns, and I deleted who we picked.
But did anybody pick well? Iguess no, Simeon yesterday wouldn't have mattered.
I think I got time on Friday, right, did you? Yeah?
I believe you, Yeah, becauseI think I texted all of you
all yep, yep, yep,yeah, yep, yep, yep.
(04:05):
All right. Now, who's secondafter me? That would be me kidding
Yeah, then Julie, then GroobyI'm shoopy. Then the Glens lineup.
Simeon leads off, followed by yourdesignated hitter, jen Kowski, oh,
(04:27):
Evan Carter bats third, a DoliceGarcia bats, fourth, Josh Smith,
fifth, Zeke Durand sixth, Jonaheim, seventh, Jared Walsh, eighth,
Leodi Tavares, ninth, No Langford, No Seeger. In the lineup for
tonight's game. God Seeger gets alot of days off. Mike Wu,
(04:49):
would you like I'll go with theDoles. I'm gonna take Marcus Simeon Juice,
(05:12):
Let's go Evan Carr, Evan Can. I'm gonna go hime again.
Do you want to him time?Let's see if the text can name anybody
that doesn't have one of those names. We'll fill in the Glen pick when
it gets here. Someone text infor the Rangers because who they have picked
so far have been taken. Fudge. You can take Pudger. Someone texted
(05:38):
him Budge. So I don't know, man, I uh, I don't
know when it comes out, butI'm gonna see the movie Rust. Is
that weird? There's no chance Iwould have seen it. Walsh, all
right, Little Walsh for the Glenns. Yeah. I don't see very many
(06:00):
movies, so there's no way Iwould have seen the movie Rust with Alec
Baldwin, which I cannot see arelease date on. I have no idea.
It's just called an uptill to comeout. I think I thought they
just like halted everything. Don't seeanything about it being canceled. Filming resumed
as soon as charges were dropped againstAlec Baldwin in April twenty three. So
(06:27):
on the set of Rust, somehowa gun that Alec Baldwin was using was
loaded with live ammo and he firedthat thing and someone died. Yeah.
So the armorer of the movie,which is awesome that movies have someone called
the armorer, Hannah Gutierrez read wassentenced today to the maximum penalty available for
(06:57):
involuntary manslaughter, which is eighteen months. Now, explain to me the armorer.
So I guess the armorer is incharge of all of the firearms,
weaponry, yeah, things of thatnature. And so was the armorer who
loaded live rounds into a gun,which I couldn't imagine any scenario in any
(07:19):
movie ever where you would need liveammunition in a firearm. And I gets
to make it look a little morerealistic and stuff, and it's not a
totally unusual thing to my understanding,but I would hope it pretty much stops
now that this has happened. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And
this one, I guess wasn't supposedto be because like the armorer tried to
say, like, I mean,are there her attorney tried to say,
(07:43):
like, she's not the one responsible. He pointed a gun at somebody and
the script didn't say to point itat them, And it's like, well,
I'm supposed to have blanks in here, and we're felling a movie that
has to be where the biggest problemhere? Yeah, the biggest problem is
there was live ammunition in a firearmon the movie set. Yeah, and
so she is going to go toprison for eighteen months. But I do
(08:05):
think now I want to see themovie, and whenever Alec Baldwin fires a
gun in the movie, I'm gonnahit rewind and be like, is this
the scene that I think that hemight have killed someone when they were shooting
to help the movie? Yes,it's not good. I mean, I
don't know, man, but Ithink like, yeah, I mean everyone
(08:30):
has heard of more people have heardof the movie now. The budget is
eight million dollars. That's very smallin today's holidays. It's low budget,
man, And now the whole world'sheard of it. What if this is
big movie trying to make money onrust by having some drama on the set.
I'm just saying. I'm not saying. I'm just saying, I don't
know, man, but I thinkI'll see it now I don't think so.
(08:52):
I don't know, man, butI think I might. I also
found a TV show if anybody wantsto watch TV show if you're in the
market. Normally I'm always in themarket and asking other people, but somebody
told me about a show called Fallout. It's based on a video game,
but don't let that jam you up, just like Last of Us was based
on a video game, but itwas a really good show. Did you
(09:13):
guys watch Last of Us? Yeah? I liked it. It was great.
It was really good. Fallout isdifferent but almost kind of the same
vein where it is post apocalyptic,but it's probably more dark, humor based
than Last of Us was, withsome of like over the top gore.
(09:35):
But it's not like you're not grossedout by it because you're like, oh,
yeah, this is one of thosekind of shows. All right,
everybody, I know that I'm dark. Yes, So is this a postal
apocalyptic Detroit phillly ish because one ofthe towns he goes to is called Philly.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. There'speople who live above the surface,
and there's people below the surface thatlive in vaults, and the vault people
(09:58):
are the rich people who get aor to get a vault. And there's
real life, you know, veryserious, big themes, but they're woven
into a show that's having fun,so you may not even realize it.
Like, no, no spoilers.Just know that there's a good show out
there. But I don't know.Man. Also, Oh, go ahead,
(10:20):
I say, did you see thatthe Rangers broadcast team now does home
run picks? Really? WHOA?Jared Sailor just tweeted out everybody's picks.
Oh they've done No, they've they'vedone it. They've been doing it.
Did we copy them? They definitelydid it first. They've done it.
I never have noticed. They've doneit for years being tweeted out like this.
Yeah that's not unusual. Yeah whatJared and Eric and Hicksey? Yeah
(10:43):
yeah, yeah, they always dotheir picks. Yeah. I did get
into that for a few years.I think it was Jared's idea back in
the day because he's been out toget both their jobs for a long time,
and so even though he doesn't doas many games and he's working his
way up, he likes to provehe's smarter than them, and so he
likes to win contests. Yeah,try to share the right just there in
my seat. Everybody knows what he'sup to too. Yeah, too clear.
(11:05):
I am joking. I'm not,but it's fun to say that to
Jaredy's like, I hate you,I love my job, and I love
everyone. Dave Raymond and I weboth picked Evan Carter. Did anybody Emily
picked a Dolace? Oh? Yeah? Who's team of I onn Did anybody
pick Simeon Bye? Yes? Pleasebe Eric, I want to be on
(11:28):
Aaron. Who this person is?What's the name Brianna Mutschler? Oh,
engineer a watch of fam Okay,so they have a fan doing it too,
like our Glen. I think that'sI hadn't seen that one. But
they've been doing it for a whiletoo. Actually we stole everything from them.
Yes, either way, join usJonas tomorrow in the Rooms to Go
(11:52):

We're to have some furniture. Yes, we'll be joined by John Radigan,

guest, the Cookie Lady. Ithink she does. Yeah, I know
(12:13):
that so funny because it was sucha far way to try to copy them.
He joined Fritz Peterson in the sky. Oh, I'm not laughing that
she died. I'm laughing that whatI said, go ahead and justified to
think of another, like, youknow, thing from their broadcast. And
that's all that I could think of. What else do they do these days?
(12:35):
Stuff? Whatever they do, wewill. I'll only not in the
stands anymore. Y'all. Remember whenwhat's his name was in the stands?
Yeah, cracked me out to Ilove Noxye. He put us on TV
at the old station. He wasinto a game. He'd come do something,
bend and Skin would eat hot dogsin one bite. I don't know,
(12:58):
man, I like to see that. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, they both have no gagreflex. Oh shoopy, look at the
picture kind of behind the Danny Fathit. Yeah, it's been going deep
on a corn dog. Yeah,it's early on. He's gonna get the
whole thing. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it's the whole thing.
What he's serious about it too?One more? I don't know, man,
that I have for you and Ihave to go in the Ranger game
(13:20):
all the way back to Friday,but I cannot in good conscience not mention
it on the broadcast. I don'tknow much about like labor unions to be
smart enough to say anything intellectually aboutthem. But I mean, in general,
I support people trying to get moremoney and stuff, so go unions
probably. I don't know though,Uh, but my understanding is one of
(13:46):
the strongest unions in the entire worldsomehow is the Major League Baseball umpire Union.
Like they're just beyond reproach. Theycan do whatever the hell they want
and there's no accountability whatsoever. Andthe guy who's the worst at it and
has always been the worst at it, Angel Hernandez, is ass as an
umpire. He's the worst umpire toever umpire a Major League game, and
(14:07):
he's been doing it forever. It'sinsane and everybody knows it too. Yeah,
everybody thinks it. And he throwsa fit when he doesn't get World
Series games and stuff. He's like, look, this is racist, and
we're like, no, you suck. You're the worst umpire in the league.
Uh, and we're not gonna haveyou screwing up the World Series.
So he was the umpire behind theplate for the Rangers on Friday against the
(14:30):
Astros, and young Wyatt Langford wasat the plate and he had let me
see, he did have a twoto zero count. So two pitches somehow
were called balls by Angel Hernandez.The third pitch of the at bat was
probably four inches outside. Angel Hernandezcalled it strike one. The fifth pitch
(14:54):
at the at bat, let mesee, is probably six inches outside strike
two. The two, four andthe fifth pitch of the at bat,
I have the exact measurement on howmuch it was outside by and it was
called strike three. And why atLangford is just like, oh my god.
And to his credit, he walkedback to the dug guy like he
(15:16):
was looking down and kind of shakinghis head like absolutely not. But three
pitches a total of about a footand a half outside and he's called out
on strikes on three pitches in arow. He was probably thinking, I
never saw anything like that in theminor leagues. Yeah, it's you can't
because and kudos to the pitcher.If you give it to me once,
I'm gonna throw it there two moretimes and see if you'll give it to
me again. If you're just gonnakeep expanding the strike zone four or five,
(15:37):
six, seven inches, I'm gonnatake it. So the strikeout pitch
missed the plate by six point seveneight inches, almost seven inches off the
plate, and he was called forstrike three. On Twitter xx Twitter,
there's something called umpire Auditor and whatthey do is they tweet out the worst
calls every day, and so theyshowed that pull at bat and they say
(16:00):
the strikeout pitch missed outside by sixpoint seven eight inches. This is the
largest miss on a called strikeout inumpire auditor history. Oh my goodness,
Angel Hernandez ass at his job.I bet he apologized, absolutely not,
absolutely not, And he would probablypunch somebody if they asked him to.
(16:22):
Yeah, if he did, He'sthe first umpire to ever do it.
And I don't know, man,I have changed in my sports thinking a
lot over the years because I usedto like that in baseball, like,
oh, you've got to learn whatthe zone is today. If you're a
pitcher, what's he gonna give me. He's gonna give me the inside to
day, the outside to day.But the older I get, the more
(16:44):
I watch it, I'm like,it's not that there's actually a consistent thing
that he's giving and not giving.The umpires just aren't good enough. And
so as a hitter, you couldbe perfect in the zone and take strike
three when it's ball four, butthey call it strike three, and it's
just I've come around a long wayon that where I'm just like robohump this
crap. Just do it. Showus what the digital readout said, We
(17:11):
have it in real time. Tellus if it's a ball or strike could
be done. Let the hitters actuallyhave a strike zone that is a real
strike zone instead of whatever the dudebehind here is thinking on this pitch.
It's insane. This is the fightI'm tired of fighting. I used to
be willing to fight this fight.But if you've got the technology to do
(17:33):
it, which they clearly do,and things are this bad, and that
union is so strong that you can'tget rid of the worst guy in the
game by a mile even if youwanted to, then okay, shut the
union down, put them all outon the street, go robo, Yeah,
(17:59):
to do it. It's got tobe done, please and thank you.
I hate taking that element out ofthe game because it's always been there
since I've been following baseball. Butenough is enough. And that was terrible
the other Oh, it was sobad. It was so bad. Um,
okay, so that's extra. Idon't know, man. For you,
