You said you're gonna come in hot and you're gonna
roast me on something.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
What a couple of things? I'm coming in hot about one. Yes,
you're not even ready for college football season. I've noticed

Yeah, forty seven bombs so far. He's pretty good. He's
all right.

sure every single vote goes to him?
Speaker 1 (02:16):

(02:36):
something right now. You know who's going to play first base?
Down stretch?
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Are you really about to do this? Alex Bregman.
Speaker 6 (02:45):
He's got gremlins in his elbow, is what he said
yesterday to the media.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
So if you don't put him at first, you're losing
some production there. I'm talking about offensively.
Speaker 5 (02:55):
Hm.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
You also free up the two catchers not to have
to do you know where you don't lose If you
want a dhin er you can with Kartini.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Watch, I'm gonna go. I'm going out on a limb.
Let's see. I asked Dana.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Brown yesterday about I said, is there a chance who
will play third base? If Alex Revan can't play third base?
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Rest here? It doesn't sound like to me.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
If he's got gremlins in his elbow, there's gonna be
a whole lot of third base played right now throwing
it I thought he just slept on it wrong. When
you said that to me, did I smirk at you?
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (03:29):
You don't miss game after game after game, sleeping on
your shoulder or elbow in this case.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Wrong.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
You know what they do. They pee in our face
and they call it rain. Right if you so all
of a sudden in the middle of the night. Now,
maybe if he's on one of those old school water
beds that threw you around and threw him off the
bed and hit his elbow on the nightstand. But other
than that, come on, dude, you weren't buying that no day.
You weren't buying that Arizona waterfront property, were you?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
No?
Speaker 4 (03:54):
Okay, good, because neither was I and neither were they.
Alex Bregman first Bay.
Speaker 6 (04:02):
Well that'll that'll take care of your your first base issue.
Who plays third? Dubon or yeah, goes back?
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Do you trust more Dubon at third or any other
guy unlessens Victor Kartini? You put or ds but he
only played what once over there? You do bond? Correct?
People want him to let you stick? What if I
told you that that Alex Bregman, don't be shocked if
he got ground balls at first base and started playing there?
Speaker 6 (04:33):
What would you say? I wouldn't be surprised. This whole
thing about his gremlins in his elbow. Uh, it's just
I had heard some things a couple of days ago
about it's called I get bone fragments in the elbow
is what the cause was? Well, those can be gremlins.
(04:53):
Those are those are the gremlins that I was talking about.
So there's no structural damage, but there's gremlins in the elbow.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Tripley.

boo bunny, Uh bunny, honey bun.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Honey bunch? No, No, what if she called you?
Speaker 6 (07:07):
Had I had a girl, A girl I dated back
in like two thousand and nine, used to call me
honey bun, honey bunny, and I wanted to shoot myself.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Is she still alive? She is? Mother. You didn't have
anybody take her out, did you? Honeybun? Did you ever
say it? Gets?
Speaker 4 (07:28):
It makes my skin crawl when you call me honeybun. Yeah,
she still did it. Apparently she wanted out of the relationship.
So does she call her husband honeybun? Now?
Speaker 6 (07:39):
Uh, not sure on her marital status. I just maybe
you guys were tired or something. No, we're not friends,
and you said, hey, do you guys call me honey?
Does she call you honeybun? Or she got a different
one for you, honey bunch. I hope she doesn't call
her husband honeybun. Honeybun.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yeah. I don't know, man, but snook them sounds like
it could really pull. No.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
No, yeah, we should do a segment like maybe to
borrow something on worst nicknames for your lover or for
your significant other. Please, I'm talking about the even not
like if Salzi, you know, like yeah or Lima, Yeah,
I'm talking about that they give you the love like
like snuggle bunny or peaches, you know what I'm saying,
(08:22):
or you know, just like I mean they did, like hey,
I love bug. Yeah you know what I'm saying. Yeah,
I know I do. There's got to be there's I
guarantee people are driving down the street right now or
sitting home saying, oh my gosh, going, buddy, he might
have the worst one for his wife.
Speaker 6 (08:37):
Yeah, husband, Probably a dude that's driving down the road
right now that's been married for like thirty years and
he's thinking back to his high school girlfriend that he
used to call him pumpkin.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
Yeah yeah, damn Yeah, he's like damn now she just
calls him prick.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Yeah, he's sworn off.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
But just don't you think there's people out there though,
who okay, who gives the worst one? Do you think
women call their husbands or significant other a worse nickname
than the guy calls his wife. How many guys are
gonna admit the macho guy come on here, I call
her snook them.
Speaker 6 (09:07):
I would think that I would think this is what
I think. I think a woman wants their husband or
boyfriend to call them like a pet name.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Yeah, a little special nickname just just for them.
Speaker 6 (09:21):
Yes, and then but they give free rein to the guy,
and then the guy creates some kind of off the
wall like snook Eem's and he and then but then
she gets called that once and she's like, oh my god,
I love it, And so he just runs.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
With it that especially for me.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Yes, little did you know he called all his zoids
in college snookums too.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
So you're gonna ask Tripley a question.
Speaker 6 (09:43):

youngest one out of us three? Do you have you
ever been called anything like snicker?
Speaker 4 (09:52):

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Matt Delicious.
Speaker 6 (18:01):
That must have been a conversation prior to tripley and
I become a part of this regime.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
What's that conversation about? You probably forgot it? No, no,
we never did. You weren't a snuggle bunny. No, good
Golden gram that's sneaky, Yeah, really good, good seal, hot stuff,

(18:27):
about it. I'll give him a ten for his Yeah, exactly.
And I like how I try to sneak it away
sometimes some of the time. Good stuff. Bright Let's brother.
Speaker 6 (18:39):
Let's let's hear from Alex Bregman. You mean your future
for you mean you're really going to push that.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
I'm going to tell you right now you should consider
Alex Bregman at first base. I'm just telling you this year,
if he can't play third base and throw, get his
glove and his bat in the lineup.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
It's going to give you more versatility. Let's hear from
Alex Bregman talking about his elbow injury.
Speaker 13 (18:57):
Let's see, Uh, I feel like the rest of the
is going to be kind of just a fluid situation.
Take it day by day and see how it feels
every single day, and kind of make a decision as
it goes. Three Today, for the first time, armfelt good.
Didn't feel any pain or discomfort or anything. But yeah,
(19:20):
it's just gonna be one of those things. Take day
by day and kind of see how it feels the
rest of the year going forward.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Okay, guess what that means. Minimal third base.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
You have to have his bat in the lineup, and
if you want his glove in the lineup without him
having to throw regularly unless it's a relay home and
in truth is maybe you'd have somebody else grab that
relay on a throw from right field. Now you know
what I'm saying. Line it up a little different, maybe, yeah,
to protect that. Listen, if you can play third base
with the glove, you can play first base.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Yeah, this well, we we can revisit.
Speaker 4 (19:59):
Rolling over and bet and getting gremlins in your elbow.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, that's only in the movies.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
But whatever it is, whether it's something floating in there
or whatever it is, how do we find a way.
You saw him at the plate, Homer yesterday. You see
him at the plate. You want his glove in the
lineup and want versatility, and also to free up d
h for Jordan without losing Bregman and anybody or Diaz
when when Jordan's in left field or that and you're
(20:28):
not getting nine hundred ops from the first base, you
may get it from this guy. Why not get you
give me a legitimate reason why we can't put Alex
Bregman at first base, platoon at third base, whatever that would,
Doubond and Whitcomb, whoever you decide you.
Speaker 6 (20:45):
Want there, you're gonna have to sure regardless. That's from
what we just heard.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
That's right. So if you got to.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
Do that regardless, unless you plan on playing the big
fellow in left field every day, every every frigging day,
then Bregg needs to play first base.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Not that we don't respect Singleton or anything I do,
but your lineup. Alls you do is you strengthen a
lineup at the plate with Bregman at first base. If
he can't play and he at first base, now you
free up the d As if you want a different
left field, or if you want Keratini in the lineup
catcher or or or DH, and you give Jordaan. You're
(21:23):
telling me if if Bregman's only going to DH, we
know he can swing the bat. If he's only going
to DH, then you have forced Jordan Alvarez to be
in left field. You I don't actually think that there's
much choice. Now, you'll DH Bregman want that. I get
that once in a while when you want to put
d As at first base possibly or d H him
(21:43):
or even rest him and Keratini you want him to
play first base, and you want Bregman DH and you
want Jordan and left field depend on matchups whatever I
can tell you, though, if you don't want to waste it,
and you don't want to you want to maximize what
you have with these injuries. Bregman has to play first base, yeah,
(22:03):
because are you gonna play him every other day in
the lineup so you can get where you're going?
Speaker 6 (22:06):
You got to have him in the lineup every day.
If he can swing it, He's got to be in
the lineup, and.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
It's impossible to have him in the lineup every day, DH,
unless you're convinced you wanted you want to spend the
next thirty five or so games plus the playoffs with
you on play left. Not that he can't play left
field right, but if that was the case, they'd have
done it for one hundred and thirty games.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
They would have already done it.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
Yeah, right, I think, well, let's let's continue this discussion
because we got to look at there's some there's some
pieces that need to be moved around for this to work.
And with you have that money there in the minimal right,
meaning you have to have Bregman in the lineup every
day like what happens with Kartini, because Joe spotted just
a couple of days ago said he wanted to move
Kartini over to first base to get him more at bats.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
Well at the times when Karattini plays first base DH
Bregman that means and put on field right. But he
cannot be the exclusive DH. He's it didn't sound like
he's playing third base right ill.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Thing.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
And the risk is if you do it once in
a while and all of a sudden he heard it's
a worse Do you lose him at the play?
Speaker 5 (23:02):
Ye?
Speaker 4 (23:03):
So to me, and that's why I asked Dana Brown yesterday.
We'll talk about it, is Brian, and I said, but
ask him, what if there is no Bregman at third base?
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Then what And I don't think.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
He's I don't think he wanted to the reality of
that's possible if this continues to happen, Well, here we are.
And so if you want Bregman lineup every day, he
has to play first base or you lose jord On
as the DH. He's gonna be in left field all
the time. If you love that, great, But if you
plan on playing yord On at d H and want
Bregman lineup every day and it ain't gonna be a
third you have to have him at first base. And
(23:36):
I'll actually be surprised if you don't.
Speaker 6 (23:39):
Let's so let's continue this discussion about Alex Bregman and
the lineup next on Sports Talk seven to.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
Eighty, The Sewn Salisbury Show continued.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
Joey Varna retired by the way, yes, and he retired
and asked where he's headed right to the broadcast booth.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
You think oh yeah, if he.
Speaker 4 (23:59):
If he wants to, if he wants to, he will
because he's got great sense of humor. He does former
MVP in the National League. You know, he's played a
long time. He'd be a great ad. I fully expect
that to happen if he wants to do it. I imagine
they'll stand in line for him. But he loved he said.
An uber driver asked him if he does a ballplayers
(24:20):
that yeah.
Speaker 6 (24:21):
He said, are you a yeah? Are you a player?
As he's driving to the ballpark and he said, no,
that's crazy. Hall of not Hall of Fame, but Hall
of very good Yeah, hall of really really good. Yeah,
and great teammate. He has a crazy stat about his career.
It's something like he's only had like twenty five popouts
in his career or something crazy like that.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
Pretty special, man. He's had a really good run seventeen seasons,
I believe, in the majors in seventeen impressive. So what
is that crazy status on him? I don't know, Snuggle bunny,
stop it.
Speaker 6 (24:56):
It's something like at one point he had like under
thirty times flying out or something, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Pretty impressing.
Speaker 6 (25:06):
Yeah, he's got some kind of crazy crazy stat Uh
Tripley found the audio where Alex Bregman talks about what's
going on actually in the elbow, and this is Bregman
talking about it.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
There's swelling.
Speaker 13 (25:18):
Obviously, there's no nothing structurally wrong with the EUCL, but
some little gremlins in there causing some swelling that I'm
just gonna have to try and mitigate through the rest
of the year and keep the swelling out.
Speaker 6 (25:32):
Okay, there's some gremlins in there causing some swelling. They're
gonna have to mitigate it through the year. So all right,
let's take a look at this, Like, let's just look
last night or yesterday afternoon.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
At Tommy John. Is that what you're saying, God, I
hope not.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
He had an elbow injury in twenty nineteen as well
that he had some minor surgery on afterwards.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
So I'm hoping something floating around you can scrape out
when the season's over. Yeah, that's a bone fragment. That's
definitely a bone fragment, let's hope. So it's not that serious.
Speaker 6 (25:59):
So this was the line up last night and again
they were playing at Mini May Park right or yes
after you no excuse me, said it again, Bregman DHD,
Jordon was in left, Jiner at first, and Kartini at
or behind the plate, Jake Myers in center. Al two
A was out, so Dubon was at second base, Shay
Whitcam at third base. So just looking ahead, let's just say,
(26:19):
so you're going into ballpark Baltimore. It's a bigger ballpark.
If you want Jordon in left field, okay, that's fine,
put Jake Myers in center, or no, let's take it back.
If Jordon is your DH because of a bigger ballpark,
and you want to give the big fellow maybe a
little bit of rest on his knees, where does Bregman play?
Speaker 4 (26:38):
Then you play Dubon or Witcamb at third base, and
you start Bregman at first base.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Okay, So then then you would have and.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
You have whoever you want to catch her, and you
have the ability that Keratini does what he's done, comes
off the bench, fills in when you need him to,
and you got a great bat. You have a guy
that if all of a sudden you need relief for
das behind to play it and vice versa. And in
the days you want a d H. And if you
want to. Here, here's another reason. If you want a
d H Daz but you still want to play Jordon
(27:11):
and you don't want Bregman's bad out of the lineup,
there's only one way to do it, since he's not
going to play third base right now? Is Jordon on left,
das Dhing and Bregman at first. When you want a
d H Bregman, that means Jordon's in left, Victor Kartini
goes to first base, yep, and and Yer Diaz is
your catcher. Yeah, that's that. They're That's that. That's the one.
(27:33):
If you're going to do it and want to do
it and milk it. Now, are you Are you secure
enough to keep both guys on a daily basis and
Daz and Carotini in the lineup at the same time
with no third catcher?
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Right?
Speaker 6 (27:45):
This is how it's going to have to be, though,
and you never know they might come in coming into September,
which is a couple of days a catcher you might
bring up, saysar South. That's what I'm saying, add a
third guy to the rocket, which it expands the roster.
It also gives you more bandwidth. So this is how
what's going to have to be regardless of if you put
Bregman somewhere at first or DH. Jordon's gonna have to
play a lot of left field going through the rest
(28:06):
of the season because that's gonna get Karatiny and Jiner
in the lineup. Joe spotted just a couple of days ago,
talked about trying to get Krotiny more at back.
Speaker 4 (28:16):
If you want the best lineup, the best lineup, now,
listen whatever you say. Now, if you want Dubon in centerfield,
let's just say they're gonna stick with Jake Myers. Your
best lineup is going to be Dubond Slash whitcome at.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Third or just endSo a third, whatever whoever you.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
Decide a third. Your catcher is going to be one
of the two. And the guy who's not catching the
guy who's not catching. If you really want your best lineup,
the guy who's not catching is the first baseman. Bregman's
the DH, Jordon's in left field. If you want all
the bats, if you want Bregman in the lineup every
(28:52):
day and Jordon in the lineup every day. Since Bregman's
not playing third, I said this to the top, I'm
gonna tell you again on left Bregman has to play
first base. He has to if you want Keratinian Das
to be a part. I mean, we know DS is
going to be if you still want that bad But
if you want Bregman in the lineup every day and
(29:15):
Ordon in the lineup every day, then let's just say
Ordon and Bregman every day and Bregman's not playing third base,
so you have the choice. You can't DH Jordon. If
you want Bregman in the lineup every day, dhing do
you make do?
Speaker 1 (29:30):
That makes sense? So the best way to do it
is put Bregman at first base.
Speaker 4 (29:35):
Jordon can DH, and you can on those days and
Ordon's dhing, Bregman's at first the Keratini DS thing behind
the plate, and then you go get your little whoever's
playing left field that day?
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Is it Debon? Is it?
Speaker 4 (29:46):
I don't care who it is, Trey Cabbage, whoever you
got out there in left field, even if you believe
McCormick's the guy when Bregman. If you want Bregman and
Jordon in the lineup every day, along with the ability
to have and with the catcher position in the first base,
what do you lose dhing das other than the if
(30:07):
you get a third count on what the rosters expand too.
But if you want Kerateny and Diaz, then Bregman's got
to play first base. Who do you trust the glove
at first base? More Diaz or Bregman?
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Uh? Bregman?
Speaker 4 (30:17):
Sure you do? You want their bats in the lineup.
This is if you want the bats in the lineup.
Bregman at first base gives you that opportunity and doesn't
relegate only yord On playing left field. If Bregman's at
first base, I have the flexibility to put yord On
at DHY. I don't run him out there thirty five
to forty five games counting the playoffs in left field
(30:38):
because I believe if they wanted to do that, he'd
been the all time left fielder.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
They don't want to do that.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
So if you want to him in at the DH
and Bregman can't play third base, where else you putting him?
I can't leave his bat on the sidelines for a
three game series. No, you can't, especially now.
Speaker 6 (30:53):
And with Tucker still out, can't afford to have Bregman
out of the lineup.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
Bregmanu at first base, the DS Keratini thing, d Karatini thing,
DH wise two and ord on a left field first
base if I want, if I want those guys in
the lineup all at the same time, it's simple. Krotenis
at first, Diaz's catcher, Jordon's in left field, and Bregman
is the DH. But if I need to move it
around and need a first basement, so I don't want
(31:19):
Jordan to play left field, you have to and I
have to have Bregman's bat. He's the first baseman. He
is the first baseman. What what's the issue with that?
Speaker 5 (31:31):
Show?
Speaker 4 (31:31):
Tell me the negative with Bregman playing first base? There
is other than you don't have him full time at
third base. He's not gonna playing third base anyways, that's
my point. But you want him in the lineup, can't
get him in the lineup. How do you get yord
on him? Daz with the flexibility with the two catchers
to get him in either in the lineup every day
or have him sitting over there. If we don't expand
with the third catcher, he has to play first base.
(31:52):
If you want Jordan in left field full time, then
he doesn't. But if you want yourd on to DH
most of the time and in left field once in
a while. Alex Bregman's your new first baseman the rest
of the season. If he can't throw it, if if
he's not gonna play third, Yeah, simple, you gotta have
him in the lineup. That's like, there's no other way
around it if you if you want him in the
(32:13):
lineup and you're not willing to put him at first
base and that magical glove, Jordon's in left field for
the next thirty plus games and in the playoffs and
World Series if they get there.
Speaker 5 (32:23):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Yeah, who do you trust more in the lineup?
Speaker 6 (32:27):
Does Zenzo at first base, Shay Whitcomb at third or
Dubon and Jord on a left field and then Alex
Bregman is your dage the truth and not have Kartini
in there.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
If you had to do it every day, if you
wanted to play Jordan on the left field every day,
it's Jordan on a left field, Karatini at first base,
Diaz catching or vice versa, and Alex Bregman is your DH.
But I don't think they want to play Jordan on
a left field every day, so that limits you. If
you know if you get a DH Jordon, you can't
Where are you playing Bregman? Yeah, if he's not your
first baseman, we know he could swing to Batty Homeward, right, yeah,
(33:00):
first game back, it's four games. I'm just telling you
now that if they don't play Alex Bregman at first base,
they're not looking at all the They're not looking at
all the opportunity.
Speaker 6 (33:09):
I don't see how you don't play him there. It's
it's too logical. It's either it's that or you lose
his bat.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
In the lineup. That's exactly what do you want to do.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
Or he's got to play through it at third base
either way ask but from everything we've heard from the audio, that.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
Could lead to far more problems.
Speaker 4 (33:26):
Right, So what's more, what are you more worried about
Bregman being out of the lineup and not swinging the
bat every day or Bregman, Oh he's over at first base?
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Will it be the same?
Speaker 4 (33:35):
I trust that Bregman's glove is good enough to put
a bigger mid on and play first base than I
do that the Astros are more explosive without him in
the line You can't afford him not in the lineup.
With the fact that Tucker ain't going to be here
before Labor Day, you can't take that bat in the lineup.
That bat needs to go to first base. Jordon needs
the DH and play left field. Once in a while,
you move him to left field. When you want Kroteni
(33:56):
and Diaz in the lineup and Bregman at the same time,
then you go him and left field Diaz or Krotina
behind the play it Dazer Kartini as the first baseman.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Bregman is your DH.
Speaker 4 (34:08):
When you want to change things up your normal lineup,
one of those two at catcher, one of those two
dhing Or at first base, jord On at dh R
and left field, and Bregman at DHR at first base.
When Bregman is not dhing and you need his bat
and you're gonna need it, he has to play first base.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
He has to, Yeah, because you're gonna lose one of
those bat. That's exactly right. Gotta figure it out.
Speaker 4 (34:31):
And I got news for you come postseason. If it's
nut cutting time and I got games to win, I
may not playing at third base. That guy ain't standing,
He's not sitting on a betch no, no, and how
do I play him? Jordan on your DH and today
Bregman grab the big glove. You're playing first base?
Speaker 6 (34:45):
Figure it out. YEP, seven three, seven ninety is the
number to join. We'll get to your calls next. Continue
to talk about the Houston Astros. Justin Erlander made the
return to the mound last night. How did he perform?
We'll talk about it next in Sports Talk SEVN Highty.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
The Sewan Salisbury Show on Sports Talk seven ninety Yours
your rockets your.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Voice, Chris, good morning, Hey, good morning. How are y'all
doing today? We're good, buddy.
Speaker 5 (35:15):
What's so?
Speaker 1 (35:16):
I just wanted to run something by?
Speaker 8 (35:18):
Last year Diaz played a little bit of left field.
Speaker 14 (35:21):
What would be wrong with putting him at left field,
Bregman at first, Alvarez a DH and Krotenia catcher.
Speaker 12 (35:28):
I'm gonna hang up and listen to y'all stops.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
Thank you, Chris.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
There'd be no problem with that if they trust his
glove and left field. I don't remember seeing him much
in left field. Maybe I might have missed it, but
if I'm assuming Chris is right, I don't think that.
I don't think they want to not saying that he's
not a good defender. But I think you now have
probably put your team even though Bregman hell, I think
he'd probably be a Gold Glover at first base if
he played over there full time. But I uh, I'm
(35:52):
not sure. I mean, that's a that's a wide variety
when you have DS catching DS, d H and DS
playing left field, DS playing first base. Right, to me,
it's reserved for if you want once a while first base,
but catcher and DH for Daz. I don't think I'm
gonna put him glove wise too many important plays now.
He may be a hell of a left fielder. I
don't know how he did if he played it last year,
(36:14):
or how many times he's played left field in his career.
I think that's a far riskier proposition than Bregman at
first base.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
Yet Chris is right.
Speaker 4 (36:25):
I mean he put Bregman at first base like I did,
so I by fully believe, and I told you at
the top of the show that that Alex Pregnant you
have to put him at first base if he can't.
Speaker 6 (36:33):
Play third has never played left field last year.
Speaker 1 (36:37):
Okay, well, then that's according to his.
Speaker 6 (36:39):
Baseball Reference page, which is basically the Gospel one.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
Even if he did, there's been ample there's been ample
times to put him out there this year and they haven't. Right,
he was catcher DH first base last year and he's
played first base? What one time this year or two times?
How many times he been over first? Not very much?
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Right this year? Yeah? Three? Three times? Okay? So uh yeah,
the majority of him is going to behind a plate
in dhing.
Speaker 6 (37:04):
Last year he caught uh here here he started forty
two games behind the plate, thirty six as a d
H and seven at first base last year. Last year,
he's never played left field in his career at the
big league level.
Speaker 4 (37:16):
Well, give me gimme Bregman at first base, Diaz behind
the plate. That's how he solved that. Yeah, and then
you deal with the Keratini. And if you want Jordan
in left field, then you can move Bregman to d
H and put Victor or d As at first base.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Still uh yeah, I'll see. Yeah, no no left field.
Speaker 4 (37:35):
Because you can tray, you can chae if you had
to move a guy around, you can take a first
baseman and stick him at catcher. It's the DH thing
that you lose if one right, So you're okay there right,
and that if Jordan's dh and you're protected there, and
if for Bregmant's dahing. But the move of overall, regardless
how you move the chess pieces, the overall move is simple.
If Bregman's not going to play third base this year,
(37:56):
he can swing the back. You need his bat in
the lineup, which is obvious, yes, And you don't want
Jordan to play full time left field, and you need
his bat in the lineup, and Bregman's every day. Bregman
has to play first base. He absolutely has to, and
I'm going to ride that until they do. I'm telling
you he needs to play first base.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
Seven one, three, two, two, five seven ninety Tom, welcome in,
Thanks guys.
Speaker 15 (38:24):
Yeah, this is the dog day the summer We've been
hearing about all the time in baseball. You know, the
only thing that's going right right now this week for
the Astros is that the Mariners can't win a ball game,
and we got that on our side. I kind of
want to look at this as a half bull, but
the next eleven games, with thirty fifth left to play,
(38:46):
this is going to be pivotal. This is playoff baseball.
They're looking at every one of the teams they're going
again in the next eleven are teams that are trying
to punch their tickets to the World Series and the
NL and AL Championships. The most danger team that we're
gonna play, I think is gonna be the Royals. They're
fighting their lives for the game to the wildcall, and
(39:08):
I think over the next eleven days, if we can
god win, five of these teams go five and six split,
so four games with each team, they'll be getting away.
Speaker 5 (39:21):
With murder.
Speaker 15 (39:22):
Because I agree with you, they're gonna have to put
all hands on Jack. If you've got to put Bregman
at first, you put him there, but he needs to
be in the lineup. I don't know what else I
have to say. I'm still gonna look at this team
as a team that's gonna do it. I say a
couple of weeks ago, I'm still meeting I think this
is going to be their finest moment. Thanks for letting
(39:43):
me and guys, I'll just listen to what they have
to say to thank you.
Speaker 4 (39:48):
I don't know what the remedy is if Bregmant's not
at first base, if you don't want to play your
on the leftield every time Bregman has to be at
first base unless you decide you only want to play
him once every five days. Can't do that, right, They're
not good enough. I mean they're good, don't misunderstand me,
But I don't know many teams would be good enough.
I mean, they've overcome a lot this year, but now
you're telling me a limited Bregman are out of the lineup,
and no Kyle Tucker for another damn near three weeks
(40:11):
or so sometime in this September. And we got to
hope that when he comes out, he comes out hot.
It's not like he's got thirty games when he comes
back thirty games. Oh, I got thirty games? Leof to
get myself red. No, hell, he's gonna have a handful
of games or whatever it is when he gets back.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
What are we in the thirties.
Speaker 4 (40:28):
Let's say he misses fifteen more games, which is about
what they're playing every day near. So if you missed
fifteen more games, we are inside the twenty that we're
inside thirty six games left, So you miss fifteen, we're
down to twenty. Yeah, if you're doing I mean, you
start to feel your way it's like coming out of spring,
but you're trying to feel your way through it. And
then you got to find out how ginger your leg is.
(40:49):
Can you put your foot in the ground, turn on
and do all the things he does? So you can't
afford to lose Bregman and Tucker's back. I'm going to
tell you right now there is no way on God's
green earth they're not having the common conversation about Alex
Bregman at first base.
Speaker 1 (41:01):
They have to have to.
Speaker 4 (41:02):
I know you looked at me a little side eyed
when I said put Bregman at first base?
Speaker 1 (41:06):
Do you want his bat in the lineup? Yeah? And Jordon?
Speaker 4 (41:09):
And you don't want Jordon playing left field day every
single game from here on out. What's the option Bregman
sits when Ord on dh is that's most of the time.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
Yeah, no, you're not doing that.
Speaker 4 (41:21):
Bregman at first the two catchers behind the plate and
Dhing at first movement. And if Bregman's not playing first base,
guess what he's doing Dhing and Jordon's in left field. Yeah,
which is a once in a while thing. Your normal
lineup is one of the two cats behind home plate.
Whoever you got left field, your third base, Dubon Widgham,
whoever you think is going to be. You may platoon
(41:42):
first base, Bregman, DH Jordan left field, whoever behind the plate,
dz Keratini. And when you want a DH Bregman, Jordon's
in left field, and one of the catchers is at
first base.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
One of the catchers is playing catcher. And if you
want to change up.
Speaker 4 (41:57):
You got a fastball pitcher that you think Singleton and
Rake put him at first base. Bregman's got to be
your regular first baseman going down the stretch because you
got glove that he can play with and his bat
has to be in the lineup. Yeah, can't take it
out of it.
Speaker 6 (42:09):
And you don't want your on playing left field every day.
Right it's getting the seven o'clock hour. Justin Berlin a
return to the mound last night? How did he feel
about his outing? That's next on Sports Talk seven.

Speaker 6 (44:40):
Man, Oh my goodness. Seven one, three, two five, seven
is the number to join Clay. Good morning, Good morning.
Speaker 10 (44:52):
I'm hoping you guys are going to tell me that
I'm wrong about this that I was listening to the
game last night and I think it was the eighth
inning or one of the In the latter part of
the game, Houston had two men on nobody out and uh,
the week come, I think we do to come up,
(45:14):
and Joe a spot up apparently thought it was necessary
to pull him and call in John Singleton. They said, well,
they don't want to call in Al two by because
it's his day out, And I thought, you know, and
I turned it off at that point because I thought,
this is not a team that really wants to win.
(45:37):
It's a culture of well I'm trying of turned and
oh I've got a gremlin in my arm and I
don't really want to apply myself. Well that's okay, go
sit down. I'll find somebody else to take your place.
Speaker 1 (45:50):
So play?
Speaker 6 (45:51):
Are you are you are? Are you saying that the
Astros don't have a good work ethic.
Speaker 10 (45:56):
No, I don't think they do, because they find every
excuse not to have to play. Oh it's my day off,
I've got are Do you want to play?
Speaker 1 (46:05):
Clay?
Speaker 6 (46:06):
Do you honestly think that Jose Altuve told Joe a
spot of Hey, don't hit me here, come on, man.
Speaker 10 (46:13):
No, I think Joe Aspota wants to be friends with
him so much. But it's like, well, hey, you know
you deserve a day off, so take a break.
Speaker 4 (46:23):
Let me ask you something, clay in truth, let's look
at this with the now get your thought process kind
of But I but I the work ethic is not
how I say it. If you want to question decisions
of why al Tuovy didn't pinch it because it was
his day off and want it bat they didn't want
to do that that they put more trust in Singleton
and left handed sides, but all those if you want
(46:44):
to trick question, you can question whatever the hell you want.
But if you will, and you know we I think
he's called in your plenty of times. Play's a regular
in here. We love having your opinion. But what does
work ethic have to do with a guy getting a
day off. We heard that Alex Bregman when he was
going through this his elbow even before yesterday, before he
(47:04):
DHD was chomping at the bit to want to play.
Speaker 1 (47:08):
But they did have to do.
Speaker 4 (47:10):
Most of these guys, from my knowledge, on their days off,
they want to play every day. But you know, the
manager in the stretch, run a day off here, in
the day off there. And here's another thing. At what point, Clay,
if you've got a guy on a roster singleton, you know,
with cabbage, At what point if you're a manager, do
(47:32):
you just if you shut them all down and the
only guys you're ever playing or trust or that are
eight starters in a pitcher or nine you know when
when when the DH and you know, on the hitting side,
nine guys or aren't you don't you have to at
some point trust that either the numbers or your gut
tells you, well, this is the right time to make
this decision, and then you live with the decision. But
(47:53):
I don't know what decision making has to do with
work ethic. I don't think al Tuve begged out of
the lineup, and Alex Redman has been pretty durable. I
mean at times this year he's played a lot of
baseball and he still played yesterday and he can't play
third base.
Speaker 1 (48:07):
Yeah, So what's what's the problem here?
Speaker 10 (48:10):
Well, I said at the beginning to be to tell
me if I'm wrong, and I admit I'm probably wrong
about it. But I guess what I was irritated about
was the fact that what was wrong with just batting Whitcomb.
Why did Whitcomb have to be pulled for John Singleton?
Really well anyway, but you know, and I said, tell
(48:34):
me I'm wrong, and so I am wrong. There's a
great work ethic at Yuston, so I'll stand correct.
Speaker 1 (48:42):
Yeah, well, and I think we can. We all have.
Speaker 4 (48:43):
And I think it's just semantics on how you worded it. Clay,
thank you for the call, and I love I get
what he's saying. We've all had that were the frustration,
like why isn't Altova hitting here? Why why is it
wickcamb in this situation. I'm sure something on the analytics.
Speaker 1 (48:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (48:58):
I've sent your thing with the best pitch I'm thinking
of of because we know that Singleton's a good fastball
hitter at least, So I'm just thinking of who came
that's exactly in there, and the end of why they
make the decision.
Speaker 1 (49:12):
Yes, so I don't think it.
Speaker 4 (49:13):
I think I could go the other way than what
he was saying and say, you know what, look how
hard they It would have been easy to fold your
tent ten games out. It would have been easy to
do that, and then you're like, Eh, you know what,
it's hot, we're injured. We have a built in excuse
this year. And you know what that built in excuse
would have been. You would have got a hall pass
the issue by saying, look at our pitching staff and Tucker,
(49:35):
we've been heard all year.
Speaker 1 (49:37):
That's right, what are we gonna do. Here's your hall
past year.
Speaker 4 (49:40):
But instead of calling it a hall past year checking
out and not working at it. We hear all the
time the grind. Dana Brown mentions the grind all the time.
So they have fought their way and worked their way
and performed their way back into first place. So Claire,
I get what you're saying. I just think he I
think he's frustrated with the decision to pinch John Singleton
instead of keep Whitcomb in the lineup or bring out
(50:00):
too they off and let him pinch it.
Speaker 1 (50:03):
That's not a work ethic thing. That's just a manager's.
Speaker 6 (50:05):
Decision, right. And you had Greg Weissert was on the
mountain for the Red Sox. He's a right handed thrower.
I'm gonna I'm assuming the guys that he was right
handed A part of it. That's you bring in a
lefty you had to Zenzo on the bench, you had uh,
I just I'm drawing a blank. You had Altuve, de Zenzo, Singleton,
and I'm assuming if if if Al is not playing
(50:27):
because it's a day off, whether you like the day
off or not, he's not gonna play, you roll with
John Singleton.
Speaker 4 (50:32):
I'm assuming that they uh looked at it and said,
he gets a fast play, you can drive left hand
or versus a right handed pitcher, let's go and you
make the decision.
Speaker 1 (50:44):
Live with it.
Speaker 6 (50:44):
And he also had Trade Cabbage on the bench who
eventually pinched it for Chas McCormick.
Speaker 1 (50:49):
So as a left hander, he went in there and
hit left.
Speaker 6 (50:53):
I think what we're gonna see down the stretch is
if Singleton is not in the lineup, he's the first
guy off the bench, and I'm okay in a pin
ship if Dubon is not in the lineup as.
Speaker 4 (51:02):
Well, if Dubon is playing utility and not starting, he is, yes,
depending on the matchup, but if if if he is
in the lineup, then Singleton becomes your number one guy
coming off the bench. Great, I want to put Bregman
at first base. I open with that, and I know
you smirked, like you you're gonna.
Speaker 8 (51:16):
Run with that.
Speaker 1 (51:17):
I just I thought you were. I thought you were.
I'm dead ass serious.
Speaker 6 (51:19):
Well you you know, you were trying to trying to
cap on me dog about college football, and then you're like, hey,
by the way, Alex Bregman should play first base. I
was like, wait, what no cap though, no cap no
cat non no cap dog, Good morning. Tripley's gonna play first.
Speaker 1 (51:39):
He's been competing all though. Okay, I'm just making sure, man.
Speaker 4 (51:41):
Yeah, just check on all my peeps here, No problem,
sugar breches.
Speaker 1 (51:45):
Stop it, Tripley.
Speaker 6 (51:48):
You're gonna tell us that no chick has ever called
you a pet name?
Speaker 1 (51:52):
No, stop it? Stop is manny or I don't answer?
Or manual my name or I don't answer.
Speaker 4 (51:59):
One of the zoids started saying she wants to get
into the triple E mode to start calling you triple e.
Speaker 1 (52:03):
Yeah, you're good? Are we? The only people? Were the
only people?
Speaker 3 (52:10):
You know?
Speaker 4 (52:11):
Maybe like you're feeling you're you're feeling good about it.
You guys are in a conversation and she says, man, Tripley,
I'm in love with you. What are you gonna do?
You're gonna say don't call me tripley, daddy. What do
you think, daddy, you're gonna say, don't call me tripley.
That's reserved for my boys on the show. Are you

ninety Home for your Home Teams.
Speaker 1 (54:52):
All right, Sean, what are you hearing.
Speaker 3 (54:54):
On there now? This Salsbury's takeout, Salsburief takeout on the
Sean Salbury Show.
Speaker 6 (55:06):
It's time of the stake out here on the Seawan
Salisbury Show seven five seven. I got a couple of
guys that have been holding for a while, Carl, thanks
for holding.
Speaker 1 (55:14):
Good morning.
Speaker 20 (55:16):
Hey, I think everything will be okay. We're just hot
and cold. Uh. Kind of concerned though, because our two
best hitters were in there. We had two men on,
then we had the bases loaded, couldn't get through there.
And I'm a big John Singleton fan, but I think
the dice might have been throwed in uh our two
(55:37):
bays favor, maybe because uh, I can see what that
other gentleman was saying, you know, just bringing out two.
They let him get a hit, that little fleek and
get on base, and he can do things. I mean,
he's a wonderful baseball player. But I think it's gonna
be okay. I'd rather see us down and out right
now than get hot again when when the games get narrow,
(55:59):
you know, we'll get kind of close to the end there.
And thank god for the Marior nurs losing every So
that's about it, and I'm pulling for the Astros.
Speaker 1 (56:09):
Thank you, Thank you, Carl.
Speaker 6 (56:11):
And let's get to Aggie Doug for Doug, welcome in
Astros yesterday, Oh for seven runners in the square and
says Doug.
Speaker 1 (56:18):
What's up?
Speaker 10 (56:20):
Hey?
Speaker 21 (56:20):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (56:21):
We were at the game yesterday, and I mean, obviously
JV coming back and pitching the way he did was
extremely exciting. And but man for people to call in
and say, and I know you recan't you recanted, but
even think that the Astros don't have a work ethic
after what they've done, after where they started. I mean, guys,
were we were sitting there mid June going, there's no
(56:43):
way we're even smiffing the playoffs at this point, and
here we are five games ahead. I know the lobs
and they were driving us all crazy out at the
game yesterday. We were all pissed off, but we looked
it up. We're literally right in the middle of the pack.
As far as left on base, the Dodgers, Phillies and
uh and the Yankees are the top three. Obviously they
(57:07):
score more runs than us. But but the fact that
those three guys have have even more frustrations than us,
it kind of gives me hope once we.
Speaker 12 (57:15):
Do get in the play.
Speaker 4 (57:15):
What it tells me is I'm getting a lot of
people on base because I'm pretty good just not coming
through it. That tells me you're getting You're putting a
lot of stress on pitching staffs by getting runners on base.
That really, if you want to look at it the
positive way, Doug, for sure.
Speaker 2 (57:29):
Yeah, and again and again it's positive for us is
that we did have seven guys that we got on base.
It just we just couldn't find that that clutch hit
to get us through. And yes, I would love for
we are all discussing, Yes, L two Bay should have
probably come up up at that point, But also John
Singleton had already had a home run in this series.
So I mean, I get Joe A. Spotta, and you
(57:49):
know what, I'm done questioning the guy. The dude has
performed miracles. As far as I'm concerned with, the Astros
this year and the fact that we're getting ready to
possibly go to the playoffs for the what eighth or
ninth straight year, is just it's just a testament that
that this team does have a wonderful worth work ethic
and not and not and not to ever be questioned.
Speaker 1 (58:13):
Amen to that, Thank you, Doug.
Speaker 4 (58:15):
I don't think. I don't think worth work ethic will
ever be in question. No an overall as an overall team,
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (58:22):
And and you know what, I think we have to
take a step back and remember that the Astros just
got done winning what.
Speaker 1 (58:31):
Ten of eleven.
Speaker 4 (58:33):
They're playing great baseball, sweepy series and taking care of
their business, and they lost two to a pretty good
team Red Sox.
Speaker 1 (58:40):
Are you know, they're a they're a.
Speaker 4 (58:42):
Good team, and no exactly exactly what their what their
goal is as well, and you got beat by a
team that plays pretty solid baseball. Yet and I do
understand the frustration of decisions, but I don't think work
ethic is in question. No, I don't think that'll ever
be in question. With the way that this team, you
(59:02):
can't do what they do and not work. They're seven
and three in their last ten, so good problem to have.
Speaker 6 (59:08):
They've been playing really good baseball, and look, it was
something similar that we saw yesterday that we've seen all
season long, struggling with runners in scoring position. Oh for
seven with runners in scoring position.
Speaker 4 (59:21):
I open up the show by telling you Alex Bregman
needs to play first base to keep him in the
lineup every day this year.
Speaker 1 (59:29):
Are you with me or against me on that? I'm
with you. Do you think it's gonna happen? I think we'll.
Speaker 6 (59:35):
See more Jordon in left field than we would see
Bregman at first base. But either way, whatever it takes
to get both of those bats and Kartini and yainr
Diez in the lineup, I'm with.
Speaker 4 (59:45):
I'm gonna say that, you're gonna say, I'm gonna just
throw it out there that I think. I don't think
it's a once every twenty games Bregman at first base.
If you got if you want Jordan in the DHRL,
bregmant hass and you bet you're gonna play Bregan. You
can't play it anywhere else. Yep, if he ain't d
h And because jord On is, where are you gonna
put him? You need the bat has to play first base.
(01:00:06):
I think you're gonna get more of a steady diet
of it than you think. That's just my suggestion, and
I think it. Uh, if it doesn't happen, I'm just
gonna be had a little bit head scratched.
Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
Did Bagwell play third.
Speaker 4 (01:00:16):
Base when he broke in, Jeff Bagwell like in the
Red Sox organization? Did he break in as a third basement?
Let me check that out, triple somebody called in and
said that too, right.
Speaker 1 (01:00:25):
Yes, his name was Dwayne, Dwayne?
Speaker 4 (01:00:26):
Did he not play third basement to first base? Was
he not a third basement at one point? Or am
I losing my I.
Speaker 6 (01:00:32):
Would have to do a little bit of digging, But
I can get that here actually pretty quick.
Speaker 1 (01:00:36):
I like when you dig dog, let's check it out?
Come on?
Speaker 5 (01:00:44):
What do you is it?
Speaker 1 (01:00:45):
What do they got scrubbing? What do they call it?
Speaker 6 (01:00:46):
When it's uh, internet's a little slow. So in his career,
I didn't even even in the mind when he just
at the big league level. He never played third base.
He played first base, he played right field, He played
d H and pinch.
Speaker 4 (01:01:00):
Did he ever play third base at any point in
time coming up? Or was that or where Dwayne and
I not on the same place.
Speaker 1 (01:01:06):
I can look up his minor league stats if you'd like.
Was he a third basement at any point in time,
let's check that out as well.
Speaker 4 (01:01:15):
And maybe not, but I believe if you can handle
third base glove, you can probably handle first base.
Speaker 1 (01:01:20):
Club in the minor leagues, he did play third base.
There you go, Alex Bregman needs to play first base
this year.
Speaker 6 (01:01:27):
Heat Man in the minor league's for the Boston Red Sox.
Speaker 4 (01:01:32):
Remember I told you, I said, I think when he
went went up with Boston that he was a third
baseman at times.
Speaker 1 (01:01:38):
I believe that that's where he started. So he did.
Speaker 6 (01:01:40):
He actually he started as a second baseman, second basement,
then they moved him to third, and then they moved
into first.
Speaker 1 (01:01:46):
Turned out pretty well for him.
Speaker 6 (01:01:47):
He played, Yeah, he played UH and he played the
highest level he played third base was double A. And
then when he got over to the UH what's it
called Houston As.
Speaker 1 (01:01:58):
They moved him officially to first base, and good decision.
Speaker 4 (01:02:01):
But if Bregman can't play third base this year, and
you want yourd onto DH, most of the time, Bregman
has to play first base, and I believe.
Speaker 6 (01:02:07):
It's going to happen because you have to have that
bad in the line, no question, it's get to break.
We'll continue to talk about the Houston Ashs next.

Speaker 4 (01:04:42):
It's the only time chill when I hear pumpkin spice latte, Yeah,
I think hoodie yep. Little chill in the air. Yes,

your on your porch.
Speaker 6 (01:05:03):
You smoke a cigar, smoke a pole, and you slip
on your pumpkin spice.
Speaker 4 (01:05:07):
Maybe you fire up a big spliff. Who does, whoever
it is, whatever it is you're doing.
Speaker 6 (01:05:12):
I saw a video this morning about thirty minutes ago
of a line at a local coffee shop because pumpkin
spice latte and it's literally wrapped around the building. I'm
not joking all because it debuted for the season today.
Speaker 4 (01:05:26):
Well, I mean, you think there's more people standing in
line for pumpkin spice lotte than they are standing in
line for some boute Okay.
Speaker 1 (01:05:34):
Yeah this morning? Definitely.
Speaker 4 (01:05:35):
Yeah, I mean I mean maybe pumpkin spice lottes better.
Maybe maybe it's an afrodisiak who knows. I like pumpkin
spice latte. So do I, But I don't set my
clock to it. No, definitely not.
Speaker 1 (01:05:47):
But in the fall, little chill in the here, Hey

I'm not a big I'm not a like four cups
of coffee a day, but I don't drink. I've told

I don't think I've ever ordered one. I'm hot coffee, guys,
So even one hundred and ten out it's supposed to be

nine today. Yeah, if you like coffee, I don't have
a problem with doing it in the heat away, but
(01:06:24):
I prefer it in the fall.

little peace spice. Yeah, Okay, this one's gonna be good.
You ready for this one?
Speaker 1 (01:06:38):
Is it?
Speaker 5 (01:06:39):
Gil?
Speaker 6 (01:06:39):
It's Gil, It's Gill, and then it's Robert and then
it's Holly. So all right, we're gonna start this one
off with a bang.
Speaker 1 (01:06:44):
I got you snuggle bunny. What's up, Gil?
Speaker 12 (01:06:46):
What's going on? This is a long time ago about
it in the eighties. But the girl that also used
to say, it's time I need to see the farman.
Speaker 1 (01:06:56):
Oh god, yeah, she needs What do you hold on?
Speaker 3 (01:07:01):
Gil?
Speaker 1 (01:07:02):
She used to call you the fireman. Always to call
it the fireman.
Speaker 4 (01:07:07):
Okay, what's that your elbow? And y'all need to do
what rumping?
Speaker 8 (01:07:14):
You need to go? You got to urge, it's time
to see the fireman.
Speaker 1 (01:07:17):
And I know what that man and we go. Did
you say do a rumping?
Speaker 12 (01:07:23):
No, I said, I need to say.
Speaker 1 (01:07:27):
To say something. He's gonna get in trouble for Okay,
you want to see the fireman, okay, okay.
Speaker 12 (01:07:33):
Want to fire and it was time to go.
Speaker 4 (01:07:36):
Oh you're talking about that really small little plastic one
that people keep on their desks just to you know, like.
Speaker 1 (01:07:41):
A little, uh, little little model that they built. Yeah,
no problem.
Speaker 4 (01:07:45):
Probably used to have it in my room when I
was living with my parents. So mic just go get
yourself one of those microhos. No, no, go get in
one of those things. Uh, when you look through a
magnifying glass, that'll help. Sorry about it, Okay, change the perspective.
You go from fire, you'll go from firemen to firehouse. Dog.
Speaker 1 (01:08:11):
I couldn't hold.
Speaker 8 (01:08:11):
Off to tomorrow.
Speaker 12 (01:08:12):
So that's my little take for today.
Speaker 1 (01:08:14):
Yeah, keyword little thanks, very little, appreciated. Thanks, Gil, have
a good one. Talk to Ollie. Three initials in his name,
three inches in his body. There you go.
Speaker 6 (01:08:26):
You have to call another fireman man extra hose on
that one.
Speaker 1 (01:08:30):
Holly, welcome in. Good luck. Following up that one.
Speaker 22 (01:08:33):
I mean, you guys are on fire, y'all might need Gill.
Speaker 6 (01:08:36):
No, we don't, do you do you have keep Gill's
hose away from any of us.
Speaker 1 (01:08:45):
I can assure you it doesn't reach. Uh yeah, I.
Speaker 10 (01:08:49):
Just wanted to say.
Speaker 22 (01:08:50):
I specifically remember back in the late eighties, the reason
that Jeff Backwell was moved to first base from third
base was they had a young and coming third base
one with an all that had already had third base
named kim Kim Benetti.
Speaker 20 (01:09:03):
So that was the whole.
Speaker 22 (01:09:04):
Point of moving Jeff bag on the first base. They
needed his bad they saw how good of a Batty was,
but Kimmy was at third and there was no ray
he was moving anywhere. And also on my second point.
Speaker 10 (01:09:15):
Was I'm just really a little bit frustrated.
Speaker 22 (01:09:17):
With how untransparent the Astros are with their injuries. I
know they've always been this way, but other teams aren't
like this, and I just don't understand why they're like this,
from you know, Javier having a krook in his neck
to having Tommy John or whether it's justin having a
krook in his neck. And he moved loses through two
or three months and don't get me started on the
bone bruise. I mean, why can't they just tell us
(01:09:40):
Joe's father said that he was going to be back
in a couple of days, you know, whenever bregnant was out,
and then here and now we're hearing about grimlins and
the elbow and trying to figure out a line of
way to put him in, which I agree with you
guys about the first base thing. But why why are
they like that?
Speaker 6 (01:09:56):
I don't know, Holly, thank you for the call. It's
just kind of been like this for a couple Sean.
I don't know why they're so tight lipped when it
comes to injuries. And you remembered that it was it
last year, and how many discomfort.
Speaker 4 (01:10:09):
Happens all the time. It's almost like you don't be
the one to tell us what the injuries. Let the
player or eventually it'll come out, but early on it's not.
It's not just here. This happens in every city. I'm
just telling you it does that the people pre time.
I'm telling you it happens in every city, some maybe
a little more often than others. But the protecting of
it and calling it, hey, little a little sore elbow
(01:10:31):
before then, they just don't do it. I'm just telling
you here because we live here. It feels heightened. But
and there's been so many injuries. Here's what I do know.
There's no way on God's green earth. Now he may
have gotten hurt from the time before, and in bed
he felt it worse. Alex Bregman did not blow out
his elbow in bed unless he's a freak show, okay,
(01:10:54):
And and and so so when they said that you've
got a side on it, I mean, listen, it's not
calling them at all liars. It's like, come on, guys,
come on. That's the ultimate urinate in your face until
your training. And when you say, I mean listen. We
had Kyle Tucker pegged for late August September a month ago,
and when we asked, oh, and it'll be displayed listen.
(01:11:15):
I get why they protect the player, whether it's through
the player doesn't want him to know whatever it is.
But there is a time, like Holly said that, it's
almost insulting to your intelligent time we say, yeah, man, hey,
out for the you're not going to play any third
base at Grimins. And I get what Bregnant talk about
that Grimlin didn't creep in in the middle of the night.
It may have crept in the middle night from something
(01:11:37):
that caused the sword.
Speaker 1 (01:11:38):
You know, was sitting there.
Speaker 4 (01:11:38):
All of a sudden you had it behind you and
you felt the sown and saw said, man, it's worse
than that. You know, we've seen that happen. But you
didn't roll over in bed. Most of the time where
I come from, it's corn bread and chicken. But most
of the time when you roll over, you slept wrong
on your shoulder.
Speaker 1 (01:11:53):
You come out with a little shoulder aggre, a neck kink.
Speaker 4 (01:11:55):
I don't rarely come out with that shoulder getting said
that elbow getting so locked all a sud grembling show
up the next day. So it's not just bregnance, it's
it's a lot Kyle Tucker. It may be a bone bruise,
but it's the most severe bone bruise you can ever
have in baseball. It may be the neck injury to Javier,
but there was something wrong with the elbow anyway. Obviously
he's getting there. So yes, that's why that forced through
(01:12:17):
the trees. I take about when they talk about injuries
that are like came out of nowhere, like, how did
that happen? I take about forty percent of it, the
initial diagnosis. I take roll my eyes, yeah it I
believe sixty pretty like, come on, man, I've been in
sports long enough to know that a hamstring doesn't keep
a guy out four years. Okay, so and and Holly's right,
(01:12:39):
it's frustrating, but it's not going to change. No, they're
never going to tell you before the player somebody else
tells you. They just kind of want to go about
their business and they don't want to answer the questions.
But when you keep saying it's just a bruise, you know,
we all do keep asking questions, right, and that's just
part and parcel to what goes on.
Speaker 6 (01:12:55):
Yeah, let's let's talk about jord On Alvarez. He has
been struggling to hit the long ball at home.
Speaker 1 (01:13:00):
What's going on? That's next? Let the celebration start or.
Speaker 3 (01:13:06):
Sean Salisbury on Sports Talk seven, Ny.
Speaker 1 (01:13:11):
Tyler, welcome in.
Speaker 5 (01:13:14):
Hey, addie.
Speaker 21 (01:13:15):
It's a great, great day to be alive, isn't it.
Speaker 6 (01:13:20):
It's a great day to be above dirt. Hey, another
day in paradise above dirt.
Speaker 1 (01:13:24):
Great day.
Speaker 4 (01:13:25):
Yeah, absolutely, keeping.
Speaker 21 (01:13:28):
On absolutely, Hey, I called it in last week, and
I felt like that, uh, you know, what I said
was misinterpreted. But I heard right before the break you
were talking about Jordan and had struggled at home. What
do y'all think is the read for this? I mean
maybe like it's the batter's eye or what man uh
(01:13:49):
for for? You know, home runs at leads extrabates hits.
Speaker 6 (01:13:55):
So Jordon Alvarez Tyler has not hit a home run
at Mini Ma Park since June tow second, that's literally
two months ago.
Speaker 21 (01:14:03):
Correct, correct? Yeah, yeah, no, I had to look it
up the other night, and I was I was surprised. Really.
You know. Luckily we're going up to Baltimore. He hits
pretty well in Baltimore, so hopefully you can get it
going there.
Speaker 4 (01:14:17):
But yeah, I agree. See I wish I mean Tyler,
I wish I knew why. I mean, isn't it It's
an odd thing? I mean, you say, well, is it
called luck of the draws? He just seeing the ball different?
Is the background different fro him? You'd think if he
didn't like the battle, that we would kind of get
a feel for that. I don't know, and I'll tell
(01:14:37):
you a part of it for me, And I know
it's been on the road as well. Maybe it takes
pressure off some people just relax more on the road.
This guy has been great at home throughout most of
his career. Are people maybe even at home because of
o'tucker and it's a you know, he can hit the
ball the other way. Ken Jordan pitching him different because
there's not more protection in the lineup for him, maybe
(01:14:58):
not seeing as many pitches in his building as he
does somewhere else. More confident by a home pitcher throwing
in his building than rolling here and saying, listen, if
I'm gonna get beat, it's not gonna be by him.
Speaker 1 (01:15:08):
He had a bat He's had a couple of bat
at bats the last couple of days.
Speaker 4 (01:15:11):
Yesterday he had a bad one where he'll watch this
the number two go by him and then missed on
number three. Was not a good at bat early in
the game. So maybe that's it protection and help and
he's just going through that slump. But that's a long
time for one of the better hitters in baseball not
to lift the ball out of the ballpark, even when
he missed swings.
Speaker 1 (01:15:30):
He's so powerful hit out of the park. I would I.
Speaker 4 (01:15:33):
Would assume that people are pitching him even more carefully
on the road because they're a little more sensitive to
to being on the road in this building.
Speaker 21 (01:15:42):
Right, Well, I mean here's the here's something figuring it
out and or you know, maybe someone gets back like
a like a Tucker later on in August or early September,
and you know, drops down to a different part in
the lineup, maybe see a few more bitches and getting
it figured out.
Speaker 4 (01:16:03):
One brother, you're spot on. That'd be nice, thank you, Tyler.
And we're saying this with what a five game lead. Yeah,
so nice problem to have. But when they and he'll
get hot. We know that.
Speaker 6 (01:16:14):
Jordan Alvarez at home this season is hitting two fifty
nine on base at three forty eight, slugging a four
h six. That's a seven to fifty four ops, eight
home runs, twenty RBIs on his that's an average player
at home for him, especially for him on the road. Sean,
he's hitting three fifty six on base of four forty four,
slugging is six ninety four. That's in the ops of
(01:16:36):
one thy one and thirty eight forty six RBIs was
seventeen bombs.
Speaker 4 (01:16:41):
Now, I will tell you this, I have been around players.
It just I'm not saying Jordan's the guy because he's
hit well here in the past, right like in Postum.
He's been a dominant player at home a lot of thrills.
But I have seen players in the past that get
to a point where going on the road there's just
a little more relax you know, the expectations of home fans.
I'm not saying with the order, but it happens. Let me,
(01:17:04):
I'll just take it to my crow. I don't know
how you felt, Brian. I loved playing at home, but
there is an added pressure of playing at home because
the expectations from your home fans, at least on the road,
you're supposed to be booed, right, Yeah, you're suppably not
that they're booing jord on. My thing is that. And
then sometimes you take a little more relaxed approach. And
I would think that pictures, let me ask you this,
are you more confident pitching at home or on the road.
(01:17:25):
Most guys in their own building, right, so I would
think that they may be throwing pitches that they feel
better about, right, And you may get a little you
may when you're on the road, knowing with this building
and how the damage he's done. Maybe they're I don't know,
pitching him with a little less uh, with the what's
the word, I'm looking for a little more caution as
(01:17:45):
opposed to challenging him more on the road, because you
think in your own building you can overcome it. At home,
I don't know, sound like I'm trying to find you know,
you're a lot of that's a reach, but you try
to reach for something. A reason why the discrepancy is
so wide. If it was going to be wide, you'd
like to think think it was the other way around, right,
But which one do you think you could fix faster
(01:18:05):
hitting at home? That's exactly right. So I'd rather have
it this way, knowing that at some point in time
he is going to light your ass up. I do
still think a lot of it has to do with protection, lineup,
and he's a little bit just and sometimes you get
a little you know, the ball hits places you don't
expect it to, and that could flip flop just as
quick where his road stuff slows down at the end
and all of a sudden he gets hot at home.
Speaker 1 (01:18:27):
I just think for us it's more relevant at home
because we get to see him with our own eyes here.
Speaker 6 (01:18:31):
Do you think in his career he's hit better at
home or on the road.
Speaker 4 (01:18:36):
I would say most of the I would say, judging
from this that he's been a knowing what he's done
in places like finn I'm gonna say on the.
Speaker 6 (01:18:42):
Road, yeah, So on the road he's a better hitter
three h six with an on base of four h
five slugging a six twenty two. That's over one thousand
ops eighty six home runs two hundred and forty RBI
on the road. At home batting average of two ninety,
on base three seventy seven slugging a five forty one
ops nine eighteen RBIs two hundred and six sixty eight
(01:19:03):
home runs. I mean, either way, the dude is unbelievable
at the plate.
Speaker 1 (01:19:08):
Ran just hits better on the road than he doesn't.
I'm just going through a power struggle.
Speaker 4 (01:19:11):
He was actually going through a power struggle on the
road as well this year until he got started in fent.
I mean, he got going on the road on this
last road trip. But Brian, real quick he is. I'm
not worried about him at home. I think he'll be fine,
But there are guys.
Speaker 5 (01:19:28):
That.
Speaker 1 (01:19:29):
And I know this sounds on, but the distractions.
Speaker 4 (01:19:31):
You got more to do at home, you just do,
and some guys prefer to go on that. I've been
with players that listen. It's like, Ooh, I don't have
to deal with the home stuff, or you had a
new baby. I'm not saying, you know what I'm saying.
There's all kinds of distracts at home, and some just
relax more and take pressure off themselves, and some just
love going on the road and hitting in different ballparks.
(01:19:52):
I'm sure some ot of sheer boredom too, right Like
I'm now, I'm on the road, I get to go
to fendw Oh, I get to go to Toronto. I
don't know. And maybe he just given those other fans
a show. Yeah, who knows. But I'm not worried about
him turning it around. It's just been an odd year
for him power wise, because it's coming bunches and or
disappeared at times, which is not like him.
Speaker 6 (01:20:12):
Yeah, it's it's the power numbers were down. And then
he goes to Fenway Park. Yep, hits a couple of bomb.
I think he hit three, hit a couple over the
last I mean in August.
Speaker 1 (01:20:20):
I think he's hit four. Let's see. I can tell
you this. He said four in August.
Speaker 4 (01:20:25):
So yeah, he's thirty five in August for four doubles.
Speaker 1 (01:20:30):
I expect every year for him to get thirty five plus. Yeah,
the same with me. He's that guy.
Speaker 4 (01:20:34):
Yeah he's again. It could be just one of those years.
Speaker 5 (01:20:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:21:35):
Seven one three two point two five seven ninety is
the number to join stalk to Steve.
Speaker 1 (01:21:40):
Steve, what's happening.
Speaker 14 (01:21:42):
Yes, he's another twenty four hour Get the Life. I'm
happy about it. Yes, Well, you were talking about the
underreporting of the injuries by the teams.
Speaker 10 (01:21:52):
I'm thinking that when teams.
Speaker 14 (01:21:54):
Are negotiating for a player, they don't really want to
buy a bad back home or over, and they're naturally
going to get into the medical history and the medical
records as they're negotiating with a player for his contract. Well,
I guess that when a player is with the actual
team when he has an injury, the team doesn't want
(01:22:17):
the player to look bad on the injury part.
Speaker 10 (01:22:20):
So they just remain mute, so to.
Speaker 14 (01:22:22):
Speak, speak and try to mitig you know, soften it
as much as possible. Who knows, the player might get
upset about them going into great detail about the injury.
So that's what I was thinking about.
Speaker 12 (01:22:33):
What are your thoughts about it?
Speaker 1 (01:22:35):
Thank you, Steve.
Speaker 6 (01:22:36):
I just think the underreporting stuff is just not underreporting,
but just not the full transparency of injuries. It's just
kind of weird because there's been instances this year, especially
with the Atlanta Braves. Ronald Cuny Junior on the road tears,
his ACL gets an MRI. Their PR team comes out
an hour later, Boom, how do you hide an ACL?
(01:22:57):
Ozzy Alby's broke? I forgot whatever he broke. They literally
told everybody an hour later. Yeah, and here for whatever reason. Again,
they don't have to tell us, they really do. The
ass don't know us a damn far for the course,
that's right, But they just tell us, Hey, it's a discomfort.
Speaker 4 (01:23:11):
Yeah, that's the easy answer. Yeah, then it covers a
vast array of injuries. Right, Oh, it's discomfort, not feeling well.
And what he said, I think there is a little
bit too. I don't think this is a reason. But
if you're going to trade a person, and that's not
the case now turning deadlines past, but you're going to
trade a person you obviously want, not that you're trying
(01:23:31):
to okie dope, but you want to keep everything. You
want everything on the up and up. But if they're
doing their due diligence, they're going to find out if
a guy's hurt or not. Anyway, Yeah, that's why you've
seen some trades, you know, nixed because now I can't
make that trade failed physical Of course, they protect that
but I just think it comes that they it's almost
like a mandate of we are not giving away injury information.
(01:23:52):
It's anything but basic and vague, and they don't owe
us anything. But I know fans would love it more
if you said, hey, listen, Kyle Tucker, this is a
bad bone bruise you'll see in three months. But I
also think there's that part of the holdout hope that
if you told us right off the bat, Tucker's not
gonna be here for three months, wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (01:24:12):
You be like bummed?
Speaker 4 (01:24:14):
Yeah, Yet every day you're sitting on the edge of
your seat said, Okay, it's today, the day is tomorrow,
the day is the next.
Speaker 1 (01:24:19):
Day of the day.
Speaker 4 (01:24:20):
So it's frustrating, but I don't think it takes a
genius to figure out that Alex Bregman's elbow did not
happen by rolling over in bed. Yeah, okay, it may
have felt it when he got up the next morning.
That's not a lie, but that's not where this originated.
And you and I both know it, as does everybody
else who knows it. So, yeah, there's some gremlins in there, Doc. Okay,
(01:24:46):
your red grimlin's in your arm. I've had grimlins a
lot of places where coming out every poor at times. Yeah,
plus a few other places.
Speaker 1 (01:24:59):
Okay, yeah, the.
Speaker 4 (01:25:00):
Grandma's or the gremlins will get you. I rolled over
in bed one night, and all of a sudden, my
ankle blew out.
Speaker 1 (01:25:05):
There you go. It was unbelievable. It happens.
Speaker 4 (01:25:08):
I looked down. I said, thang, I gotta get it
fused together, my ankle. It didn't happen because you know,
well I was good to a car accident that got
t boned.
Speaker 1 (01:25:16):
It happened. I just rolled over, yeah, blew it out. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (01:25:19):
I woke up one morning and and my knee was
just gone. Knee replacement, Yeah, a new knee. Those are
called gremlins. And then when the pr you know in
media asked me the next morning before I got into work,
They're like, hey, what happened to your nie?
Speaker 1 (01:25:31):
Is that I heard it in bed slept on it wrong? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:25:36):
Or the guy with the black guy who says he
fell out of bed and let you fell in bed
and you hit that socket of your eye and that's
what gave you the black guy in perfection the size
of a fist.
Speaker 1 (01:25:48):
Yeah, you didn't break it, or he paid for it. Yeah,
there you go.
Speaker 4 (01:25:52):
So he might have paid for someone to punch him. Yeah,
that's my favorite. Like deshun, what happened to your knee?
Had to get it replaced? What happened? A couple of
Gremlins came in last night and unloaded on.
Speaker 5 (01:26:05):
Yah.
Speaker 6 (01:26:06):
Yeah, hey, how'd you get that black eye? I called
my wife, pumpkin.
Speaker 4 (01:26:09):
Yeah, that'll note right, that'll get that's where three black
eyes for you.
Speaker 1 (01:26:13):
If you call your wife that white well I pumpkin. Listen.
Speaker 4 (01:26:18):
I don't deny that he woke up and it was
bothering him his elbow. Yeah, I do deny that he
woke up and in the middle of the night somebody
from the movie Gremlins jumped into his elbow, and that
that's what caused it.
Speaker 1 (01:26:32):
Do what happened? My elbow screwed up?
Speaker 2 (01:26:34):
Man?
Speaker 4 (01:26:34):
I slept on the wrong No, you slept on the
wrong so it kind of brought attention to it. You
didn't blow out your elbow in bed, you guys, They're
just sorry to tell you.
Speaker 1 (01:26:42):
You just didn't. Okay, you did not. It didn't happen.
Speaker 4 (01:26:46):
Yeah, you did not, And so it wasn't a slight
bone bruise with Kyle Tucker. It's not like a kink
in the neck with Christian all right, so you you
a matter of fact, I would I would say air
on the side of there are season's over that everything
else is about him. Yeah, but it's an injury, any injury,
(01:27:09):
he's done for the season.
Speaker 1 (01:27:11):
That's it. He's out of there.
Speaker 6 (01:27:12):
Let's take a quick call before he gets the next
segment and turn our attention to the East Houston, Texans.
Speaker 1 (01:27:16):
Mark, Good morning, good morning.
Speaker 5 (01:27:19):
How are you.
Speaker 1 (01:27:20):
I'm awful, man, terrible, not good.
Speaker 5 (01:27:23):
I'm about that now.
Speaker 1 (01:27:24):
I'm just kidding Marked, No, no, no, we're great, man.
Speaker 5 (01:27:27):
Great. Hey. You know, if it walks like a duck,
it smells like a duck, talks like a duck, you know,
chances are a duck.
Speaker 1 (01:27:34):
Could be it could be a chicken though, could be.
Speaker 5 (01:27:36):
Well, that's true. I'm still giving the benefit of doubt.
But you've got a guy named He's about five foot nine,
five foot ten, he weighs about one hundred and eighty pounds,
and he's hitting about fifteen to twenty home runs a year,
and then all of a sudden he gains about thirty
pounds or maybe more. And he looked like Hercules, and
(01:27:58):
he starts hitting thirty five forty home runs a year,
and then all of a sudden, when they come out
with rules about steroids, he drops back down in his
jersey is last year or two that he wore just
was barely just hanging on him. His name was Jeff Bagwell.
And if that didn't smell like steroids usage, I heard
(01:28:20):
a little bit of, you know, conversation through the years
about it. But you know, after watching that Hall of
Fame presentation the other day, and this and that and
the other, and seeing a guy like Lance Berkman, who
did honorably all throughout the years, you know, and I
love watching Backwell, and you know, when I was, you know,
back in the nineties, you know, steroids wasn't you know,
such a topic as it became, you know, around Mark
(01:28:42):
Maguire's era. You know. But I just wonder why I've
never heard much about it in the media, the Houston
media through the years, or even from the national media.
I've taken the Sporting News for years and years, and
I just never heard much about Jeff Backwell's name, you know,
Whereas you know Roger Clemens, who certainly usedteroid or obviously did,
(01:29:03):
and and Grave Rodgers admitted to it, as did McGuire,
but not much about you know, those guys were blacklisted
for the Hall of Fame, and here's bagwell in the
Hall of Fame. I just never understood that. So, uh
you still there, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:29:18):
We're here. We're just letting you to speak. When do
you want to interrupt you?
Speaker 5 (01:29:21):
Man? Okay, well, you know, hey again, I'm an astro fan. Man.
Speaker 1 (01:29:25):
You know, I really am gotch.
Speaker 5 (01:29:27):
I just was. I just uh was amazed and really disappointed.
And I've seen guys like uh Clemens and and uh
McGuire and them. You know, I personally met Martin McGuire
is the great guy, and uh uh you know they
were castigated through the years and blacklisted and this and
that and the other, but blackwell, you know, he went
there by beside another honorable guy. I seemed to be
(01:29:48):
honorable guy was Craig Vigio, and uh they were just
kind of hand in hand. Be it to me Backwheell.
Reputations should should have been you know, seriously, but smirched
and and probably obviously so although he never never tested dirty,
but una start testing.
Speaker 4 (01:30:03):
And there's your answer. There's your answer. I didn't mean
to interrupt you.
Speaker 1 (01:30:07):
Mark. Uh, there's your answer.
Speaker 4 (01:30:08):
I hear you that that that's why is regardless of
our speculator. I know what you're saying.
Speaker 5 (01:30:13):
And I and we have swim never tested dirty either.
Speaker 1 (01:30:16):
What's that climent's right?
Speaker 5 (01:30:17):
Yeah? Is it?
Speaker 1 (01:30:18):
I mean there's one for some and not one for
the other. I understand.
Speaker 4 (01:30:21):
Yeah, I just but when you when you don't test positive,
it's hard to it's just a he said, she said,
thing right.
Speaker 5 (01:30:29):
Right, right, But there goes back to my duck thing
right right.
Speaker 1 (01:30:34):
That's understand.
Speaker 5 (01:30:36):
Thanks for the that's my two cents worth and it's
probably not even worth two cents with inflation.
Speaker 1 (01:30:41):
Yeah, probably not.
Speaker 4 (01:30:42):
I think it's it's worth more than a dime. Brother, YEA,
got you.
Speaker 5 (01:30:45):
But I am a I'm a dowered astro fan. And
by the way, Brandon Becky, I'm sure you all remember him.
He's my two houses down from me. We're good friends. Yeah. Anyway, Hey,
I'm a baseball fan. I'm an astro fan in particular.
And uh, I just want to throw that out there.
Maybe you all want to talk about it, maybe not,
Maybe somebody else will to comment. Maybe just let it
(01:31:06):
fall between the bed and the wall maybe where it
should be.
Speaker 1 (01:31:09):
But thank you anyway, I appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (01:31:11):
Appreciate you brother, Thank you. There has been speculation about
that over the years, hasn't there?
Speaker 6 (01:31:15):
Yes, there has, there has, but it he's wrapped up
in that hole everybody else. But for whatever reason, he
got into the Hall of Fame and Roger Clemens is not.
Speaker 1 (01:31:26):
And one is Clements has never tested positive. Correct. I
don't think he ever tested positive.
Speaker 4 (01:31:33):
And Bagwell obviously hasn't. And that's I think that's mark.
After that, we you know, he's talking about walk like
a duck. But if you don't test, it'd be very
hard to prove, if you don't have proof.
Speaker 1 (01:31:45):
Yeah, it makes sense. It just possible deniability.
Speaker 4 (01:31:48):
It just becomes speculation. I like I said, was there
talk here when Bagwell was playing? I mean I know
nationally what it was, but when I moved here, obviously
he wasn't playing anymore. Is he was there talk here
locally about it?
Speaker 1 (01:32:05):
No idea? Remember I wasn't. I was young.
Speaker 4 (01:32:08):
Yeah, I was just wondering, well, you weren't young ten
years ago. I was in college. Eleven years ago, I
was in college. Okay, so the people, but it was
it wasn't an everyday conversation.
Speaker 6 (01:32:18):
Yeah, I don't think so. A random fact for you
wealth of useless knowledge. Bruce Bochie has managed five Pennant
winning teams in his Hall of Fame career. He's never
led a team to the postseason the year following a
league championship.
Speaker 1 (01:32:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:32:39):
His three World Series in San Francisco were win one,
didn't do it, win one, didn't do it, win one.
I think he did it three and six years. I
think it was every other year. Obviously, he was coming
out of retirement last year and won it. And now
they're not in the playoff hunt right now. All those
Seattle's trying to play their way out of it. They
sure are. And I'm trying to think what was with
(01:33:02):
the other one with the padres right, Yes, with the padres.
Speaker 1 (01:33:04):
Right, So that one I remember because like leagues or so.
Speaker 4 (01:33:07):
Yeah, it's nuts, man, And that's a He's going to
go down as one of the greats of all time.
Will just I just step out of retirement and hit
the ground running and go get yourself another ring.
Speaker 1 (01:33:20):
A pretty good gig. Yeah, pretty impressive for Bruce Bochi.
Speaker 6 (01:33:22):
All right, let's talk about these Houston Texans joint practice
today with the Rams, they're gonna fire some stuff up.
We're gonna see a little sippiness. Let's talk about it
next time.
Speaker 4 (01:33:31):
I'm gonna make it simple for you when it comes
to playing getting your kid in youth football. And I'm
training a quarterback now who's an eighth grader, who's really good,
got a lot of potential, and we were talking about
leagues and how important you know the league he plays
in and Southwest Football League, what they're doing to make
a difference for your kid, whether it's options for leagues
(01:33:54):
six on six, eight on eight, eleven on eleven, sophomores
which are six man. When we say that's grades three
and four, we call them sophomore. We just kind of
put it to the college thing or high school thing
grades three and four six man football, the juniors or
eight man football grades five and six, and the seniors
eleven man grades seven and eight. You can learn a
lot and building self esteem is what this league is about.
(01:34:16):
Teaching it right, great coaching and making sure that every
single person that comes, their families and all are included
in no price out of the parents' pocket, free equipment
all first time think about this now, all first time
enrollies in the sophomore or junior tackle program receive free
(01:34:37):
equipment that's helmet, shoulder pad, and padded pants. It's expensive
to play these sports. So not only do they do that,
but they mentor and teach them how to be better
off the field and how to be great football players.
And I know this having kids and being taught that,
i'd sure seck like somebody at the early stage is
infancy of my football career to do it right. And
(01:34:59):
I was fortunate I have them do it right. And
I wasn't even a youth football league guy when I
was growing up. But the right coaches matter, and this
league has them. Plus scholarships are available and when it
comes at a very inexpensive price to go get great
coaching and training and great football. So let these kids
learn and spread their wings with the right coaches with
(01:35:20):
no cost.
Speaker 1 (01:35:20):
To the parents.
Speaker 4 (01:35:21):
And you, you sophomores and juniors free equipment, and that's
a lot of money that your parents can spend somewhere else.
It's the Southwest Football League Southwest Football League. It's s
f L t X dot org. Go in there, get
all your information, check it out late sign ups available,
but they're hitting the ground run and so you got
to jump all over it. You'll get no better coaching

Speaker 3 (01:35:48):
War Sean Salisbury on Sports Talk seven ninety where Astros
and Rockets play and Real Texans talk.
Speaker 1 (01:35:57):
Is there such thing these d's? What I listened to
the reporter.
Speaker 4 (01:36:01):
You give the guy a hat when they're taking all
the wasn't it the quarterback back from Yeah? Yeah, I mean,
what do we call penalties nowadays? I just I I
read the report and I heard, uh the legal recruiting
of him right talking about it.
Speaker 6 (01:36:16):
I'm like, wait a minute, what's even legal recruiting these days?
Did they did they got legal tampering?
Speaker 1 (01:36:20):
Did they talk?
Speaker 4 (01:36:20):
Did they talk to him on the sidelines when he's
at Missier and after the game of Michigans say, man,
we'd love to have you here.
Speaker 1 (01:36:27):
Well, what do they do?
Speaker 4 (01:36:29):
So I'd like to know where the line is between
cheating and not cheating. Now, with all this money and
you can go, it's it's a wild, wild wild West
Times ten where you can go anywhere you want. We
what did Farrins do well you offered him. I mean,
what would you do? Buy him a sandwich? You know
what's crazy? I don't think you're allowed to as a coach.
Can you still be your kids? I'm not sure you're
(01:36:50):
allowed to unless it's a function or what. I don't
know if you can walk and say, hey man, some
kid who doesn't have lunch, here's lunch money for you.
If you do that, you know that's a violation, right,
ridiculous for a ten dollars sanwich. It's crazy ten dollars
such right, Yeah, So how do you keep up with
what's a violation?
Speaker 1 (01:37:08):
What is it? Now?
Speaker 4 (01:37:09):
I can't keep up? And Farence has been has been.
That program has been pretty clean for a long time. Right,
So wins again. Imagine you take the suspension early to
get the game out of you. It was whoever the.
Speaker 1 (01:37:19):
Early game and then they play Illinois State. Take that.
You're gonna beat Illinois State anyway. I don't know. Their
offense kind of sucks. Well, maybe by taking the head
coach out, the offense won't. Maybe won't. Gay He's had
a hell of her think about this.
Speaker 4 (01:37:32):
They're the Pittsburgh seris ironic, same uniform for the most part,
same colors. I want you to think about the last
time there was. Go back and look when Hayden Fry
was the head coach, Hayden Hayden Fry, h A. Y
D E and Fry at Iowa. You look when he
how many when he started? I know, uh, I know
(01:37:54):
Farrens has been there since ninety nine.
Speaker 1 (01:37:56):
Then and guess who was there?
Speaker 4 (01:38:00):
Oh my gosh, when Hayden Fries started his head in
nineteen seventy nine. He left Iowa in nineteen ninety eight,
and now it's twenty twenty four. Yeah, say it again.
When he started.
Speaker 6 (01:38:09):
Nineteen seventy nine, you know he finished in ninety eight,
and then Farens took over.
Speaker 1 (01:38:12):
Between Iowa and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 4 (01:38:15):
If I was now, do Chuck Noll, Chuck Chuck Knowle,
Chuck and Oll real quick uniforms the same. It's almost
like the DNA has to be the same, like they're
the feeder. When did Chuck Knows Chuck Noles start as
the head coach? Chuck Noll started as a coach head
coach in Pittsburgh sixty nine to nineteen ninety one. Okay,
(01:38:37):
since nineteen sixty nine, since nineteen sixty nine, the Pittsburgh
Steelers and the Iowa Hawkeyes have had five coats coaches
total insane. Now, go ahead, and do you do like
the teams like the Miami Dolphins or teams that are
fucking that. You know, after Shulet changing color, whoever it is,
it's changed a bunch of coaches, raiders, whoever it's.
Speaker 1 (01:38:58):
Been read a.
Speaker 4 (01:39:01):
Think about that since nineteen sixty nine, same uniforms, same
you know, the black and yellow whatever they call that.
They think it's black and yellow, the bumblebee.
Speaker 1 (01:39:12):
Look.
Speaker 4 (01:39:12):
Yeah, five coaches since nineteen sixty nine have been the
head coaches at Iowa and at the Pittsburgh Steelers. Now
there's teams that have changed five coaches in ten years.
So the one thing I'm saying about Farrence is and
there was a time, about four or five years into
his head coaching career, he was an assistant on Bill
Belichick's staff when Saban and Belichick and all those guys
(01:39:34):
were in Cleveland. Kirk Farrence was that guy, you know how,
that guy that everybody talks about, the assistant everybody wants
to hire for five or so that he's the hottest
guy and he's going to go from college to the NFL.
That was Farence every single year for it felt like
a decade. Now those whispers are all on there. He's
a lifer at Iowa and that's just like Hayden Fry
was right. But you think about that now, the Steelers
(01:39:55):
in Iowa and for the most part both friends, the
university and the Steelers. The continuity with that they've won.
I was in a bowl game every year. I mean
they win a lot of games every year. They may
not win natchally, but they're always nine to ten. They're
always around Steelers, same way. Five coaches since nineteen sixty nine,
and I'll guarant ask to you there's been the majority
(01:40:18):
of college and NFL combined have had more than five
coaches in two decades, the majority of them crazy andess
is it so crazy? So Kirk Farens has had a
hell of a run. So one game suspension is not
going to dictate whether they beat Illinois State or not.
Speaker 1 (01:40:32):
I'll tell you what sixty nine was a good year?
Really was that was that?
Speaker 4 (01:40:36):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (01:40:37):
Brian? What's the singer?
Speaker 6 (01:40:38):
Says Brian Adams Summer sixty nine. Yeah, there you go,
Ba saying my my knowledge when it comes to music
and movies, is just unmatched on this show. So when
it comes to there to show up and show out
or get the hell out, did it comes to movies
and music, it's just unmatched, says the guy.

Stapleton on Saturday Night had been and made park is golden. Yeah, gosh,
college football Saturday tough week zero, But I love Stapleton
State versus Iowa might have to wait.
Speaker 6 (01:46:02):
Yes, yeah, if you're betting on that one, bet the under.
Oh yeah, total is twelve. It's probably under hey by
the way, at nine fifteen. Drew storn Law, eight time
Major League been a reliever in Major League Baseball, Stanford guy.
Speaker 4 (01:46:18):
He is part of a group. I told you about
this whiskey they sent me. I got three bottles of it,
and mine were let's see Randy Johnson. They number the bottles.
Speaker 1 (01:46:30):
That's pretty sweet. I got.
Speaker 4 (01:46:31):
I got three and they did it for the theme
for me with with sc Minnesota, Kirby Pucket and Seattle
against let's see Randy Pucket. I got to look at
my other one, but three bottles of it. And it's
great whiskey. And it's Field of Dreams whiskey is what
it's called. I've told you it's phenomenal, goes down so easy.
Drew Storren, who's part of it, one of the founders,
(01:46:54):
who's who's who's involved with this business? And I believe
that they're going to tell you they used the corn
from that area of the of the Field of Dreams, right,
And the whiskey is great and a lot of ball
players are involved in it, so we're gonna have him
at nine to fifteen. We'll talk a little baseball, you know,
and get into that, but also talk a little bit
of whiskey and Field of Dreams.
Speaker 1 (01:47:15):
Whiskey.
Speaker 4 (01:47:15):
It's not on the shelves in text. It's working on
it though, but you can sure order it and get
it sent to you and we'll give you all that
information last nine to fifteen. Drew was an eight play
I think played eight years in a league years. Yeah,
and a really good guy. And it's funny when they
were interviewing when he was playing, he said, as a
as a guy who's a like a developer, a product
developed guy that will maybe go into the shoes or
product development, will following that good Stanford degree with a
(01:47:38):
bunch of other good people involved, and got this great
whiskey I've always wanted to do. I think it's awesome.
So Drew will come in and we'll talk to Field.
Just the history behind the Field of Dreams. Pretty cool
and if it is, like I said, they're getting that
corn from those fields, Yeah, that for the whiskey. How
cool is ass? Pretty sweet? And I'm telling you when
you come over in the next ten days from the games,
(01:47:58):
whether it's week zero or one out in probably week one.
I guess i'magined for the games, but uh, you'll have
to try something. It's off the charts.
Speaker 1 (01:48:04):
We'll have them one in nine to fifteen.
Speaker 6 (01:48:06):
Have they We talked about it offline earlier filled a
dreams games they.
Speaker 5 (01:48:10):
Had they're not.
Speaker 1 (01:48:11):
They don't have four. They can't. It's not they're rebuilding
the complex. It's off.
Speaker 4 (01:48:15):
They've got a bunch of youth little leagues going there.
But you you they have this year, they're not playing it.
Speaker 6 (01:48:22):
That's what twenty four no game and they had uh
uh they had a game at and what was the
game that they had this year? It was at one
of the Negro league parks. Right, I forgot what what
that was called because what's his name? Reggie Jackson had
that really powerful speech. Yeah, boy was it powerful on
set talking to Jeter and what you talked about.
Speaker 1 (01:48:45):
It was mesmerizing, was it.
Speaker 12 (01:48:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:48:47):
But I love the old history of I wish some
of those ballparks from those leagues and from all like
you know, the field that's where they played where and
some ares you know you can go and play and
use in some little leagues or using old fields are places,
but when you see where buildings were torn down and
like the home plates there, like in Chicago for old Kamisky,
you can walk on home plate there in the parking lot,
(01:49:08):
and you know, like the Crosley Fields and all those.
It would have been fun if they never tore him down.
But they turn them into shrines where you could still
go play games, like the Field of Dreams did, right.
Wouldn't that be a blast to give you an opportunity
to go see pretty damn a game there in person,
like a minor league game would have been cool. But
I know, real estate and followed the money and you
got to tear it down and build a new them.
But some of those old facilities like Tiger Stadium, wouldn't
(01:49:29):
it be great to go back to old Tiger Stadium would.
Speaker 1 (01:49:33):
Overhang? So yeah, no doubt.
Speaker 4 (01:49:35):
So we'll have Drew talk some baseball, how he feels
about the Astros, but also to talk about this, probably
the Field of Dreams whiskey and boy is it good?
Speaker 6 (01:49:43):
Yeah, that's game at Rickwood Field was Major League Baseball
honoring the history of black baseball and the Negro leagues.
It was played at Rickwood Field back in June.
Speaker 4 (01:49:55):
And have included and have included those statistics in the
all time Baseball numbers. To Josh Gibson's of the World,
Satchel Page a lot of phenomenal, phenomenal players that got
more recognition and uh and deserved it too.
Speaker 6 (01:50:10):
You know where Satchel Page played a lot of baseball
back in the day. Uh, it was a ballpark stadium
where Coconutt Field. You know where Coconut Field is. I
have no idea Alpine, Texas. That's where I played my
collegiate baseball. That was our home stadium, the Pine Coconut Field.
It is one of the oldest.
Speaker 1 (01:50:27):
It's a lot of history. Brother, It's one of the oldest.
It used to be.
Speaker 6 (01:50:30):
It was a minor league stadium way way way back,
like in the twenties.
Speaker 1 (01:50:33):
That sounds awesome.
Speaker 6 (01:50:35):
I mean, if you enjoy to play there, to get
you it was incredible. One of the coolest, that full
on stadium. I mean, I think we better go make
a speech to Soul Ross well one once I get
my Hall of Fame plaque. Now coming with me there
you go, I'm gonna present you. Yeah, damn right, you
are damn right, Yeah, Dan Rights.
Speaker 4 (01:50:50):
I would love to go to just on not just
a little off the point, but I'd love to go
to Like there's some college baseball field, like Appalachian State.
Speaker 6 (01:50:57):
Of You've seen their field, their backdrop, Oh my gosh,
what one is it Utah or Utah States.
Speaker 1 (01:51:02):
In it's either Uta Utah State? Why that's it's beautiful?
Which is in Utah Crossatch Mountain Range. It's unbelievable, dude.
Those are two that I want to watch a game.
Apple Aachia State. I look at that, I'm like mesmerized
by that.
Speaker 4 (01:51:14):
And there's you know on the Cape Cod League there
there's there's fields everywhere that you're.
Speaker 1 (01:51:18):
Like, oh man, what a hidden gem. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:51:21):
But that Appalachian State field when I see it, just
the over above view, I'm like, hell, build a house stand,
I can live there, forget just playing baseball.
Speaker 1 (01:51:29):
But yeah there Look.
Speaker 6 (01:51:31):
There's another uh university I forget which one where the
dorms are built into the ballpark, like the players live
basically at the ballpark, which is a really really cool feature.
I could imagine being a player and living at living
at the ballpark. All right, let's get to break seven
one three, two, two five seven ninety Ray Alex we
see you guys holding. We'll get to you guys next
(01:51:51):
as we continue on here on the Sean Salisbury Show, Fellas,
let me tell you about Men's T Clinic Men's T
Clinic dot com. You feeling sluggish, You got brain fog,
like you've hit a wall or a platu towing the
gym and you can't get through it, Well, it's time
to fine tune your body even more. With my friends
over at Men's Tea Clinic, and personally for me, I
felt like I was sleepwalking throughout my day. My lists
of the gym were staying stagnant, and I just it
(01:52:11):
just was not getting better. I felt like I was
sleepwalking through the day, like I mentioned, And what that
means is the brain fog was kicking my ass and
I just felt sluggish every single day. And so fellas,
if you're going through that, if you're irritable, you're struggling
in the bedroom, you could be suffering from low testosterone.
So what I did is I went over to the
Spring location for NST Clinic and I got my testosterone
(01:52:34):
levels checked. Come to find out, I had low t
got myself on a total oneess optimization plan that procedure
took me about ten minutes. They draw some blood, they
run the blood, They gets your numbers back within ten minutes.
Speaker 1 (01:52:46):
Boom.
Speaker 6 (01:52:46):
You get to sit down with a clinic director and
you get yourself on a total wellness optimization plan. It'll
change your life for the better. And about a week
or so, and then you continue to tweak it and
it gets better and better and better. I feel the
best I've ever felt right now being on this total
wellness optimization playing five locations here in the city, the Heights, apparently,
opacity in a Cyperston Spring, dedicated providers, convenient clinic hours,
(01:53:09):
cash and insurance options makes it easy to get in,
get out, and get back to being you. And that's
what we want, fellas. We want to get you back
to being yourself. It's one call away one eight hundred
two four six low T one eight hundred two four
six low T. That's Men's t Clinic dot Com. Tell
him that Brian Lolima sent you.
Speaker 1 (01:53:28):
You're back.
Speaker 3 (01:53:29):
This is the Sean Salisbury showing get back at it.
Speaker 4 (01:53:33):
If he's not going to play third base because of
the injury, and you can't get that out of him,
you need him in the lineup every day, and then
if you don't want Jordan to play left field the
entire rest of the season, because if he plays left field,
you DH Bregman. But if he's playing d if he's
dhing and you want him there the majority of the time,
which he's been most of the year, you can't play
(01:53:56):
Bregman and he needs back in the lineup. So I
open the show saying, put Bregman at first base, and
then you deal with the changes with Diaz and Keratini.
When you're on plays left field, you can DH Bregman.
You can put one of the guys at first base
and the other one at catcher, but the majority of
the time, and then Singleton can be that guy who
(01:54:17):
comes off the bench. But in my mind, you have
to have Bregman's bat, especially with Tucker out, and if
you can't play third base, which seems like with those
grimlins in his elbow, doesn't seem like he's going to
be doing it much. It's day to day. I need
him in a lineup day to day. I need his
bat in the lineup day to day. Put Bregman at
first base. Justin Verlander didn't get the win obviously yesterday
but pitch pretty strong coming back after that time off,
(01:54:40):
and I think that we're looking at a guy who
will be ready and hitting the ground run and when
it comes to that stretch run and also the postseason.
Speaker 1 (01:54:47):
Let's get out to Ray and Memorial Ray. Welcome in.
Speaker 12 (01:54:49):
How you doing, man, Hey, good morning Sean, Brian and
good stuff. As always, you guys are top notch when
it comes to the sports information. Man, I love listening
to you. But you know, as I do, I'm gonna
make a couple of comments and I'm gonna hang up
and listen. But uh doing y'all. You guys are speaking
about the Iowa uniforms. I think Iowa, they the Roonies
(01:55:13):
are such a class uh organization. There's there's such class people.
I think they had an agreement or something with the
officials that Iowa that allowed I would have been able
to use their color scheme and use their unit basically
their uniform. Yeah, yeah, I think they Yeah, I think
they did. Art ronis just he was just a classic.
(01:55:34):
Rest in peace to him. But uh, it makes me wonder,
Uh shouldn't you would think that cal nicknare and and
and what's your face in Tennessee would be able to
to come to some kind of agreement to a lot
of Texans to be able to do something to honor
the oilers. But you know it's it's neither here nor there.
I wanted to get you guys comments on that. Secondly,
(01:55:55):
before I hang up, what I don't understand the basic
the infatuation or the love affair with with the pre
rankings having basically having the Cincinnati Bengals I entered in Houston,
Texans and Joe Burrow ahead of C. J. Sproud in
the ranks. If you guys can shed some light on
(01:56:17):
it and make me understand that you guys are the experts.
So I'd love to be to kind of hear what
you guys have to say about it. I hang up
in this Okay, Yeah, I have a.
Speaker 1 (01:56:26):
Great nare hi Ray, thanks appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (01:56:28):
Uh As far as the first one goes, I don't
know if you're ever going to see what the Titans
do and Adam's given the Texans the opportunity to honor
you know, the Powder Blues and all that on a
regular basis or when they should, I don't I don't
know if that's going to happen. It'd be great, but
the Texans are making it for themselves, and if it
wants truly honored, it should be honored here, no doubt. Secondly,
(01:56:51):
when it comes to the love affair of Joe Burrow,
Joe Burrow is a hell of a player. If Joe
Burrow doesn't get hurt, everybody's talking Burrow mahomes as the
top two. And most of the experts I've talked to,
and you see, had those two as one too, Josh
Allen would would would find his way in Lamar Jackson
find his way in a couple others, you know, fluctuate
(01:57:13):
from three, four or five, but there was never any
question on who the top two were.
Speaker 1 (01:57:16):
When he's healthy.
Speaker 4 (01:57:17):
That's the problem, Ray, and I'm sure that's where you're
going that look at, look at real quick what Joe
Burrow did to completely turn around a franchise similar to
what CJ. Stod did here in one year as well,
Burrow goes to Cincinnati. Now they're every year Super Bowl contender.
And so that's why he's done it.
Speaker 1 (01:57:34):
The longer.
Speaker 4 (01:57:35):
They're both originated from Ohio State. Burrow has been in there,
he's been When he plays, he is a freak show.
He is a great player, So I understand the love now.
I understand coming off an injury saying, well, let's he's
been here hurt twice. Now, if Joe Burrow stays healthy,
he's in that talk. He belongs there. So that's why.
And he's done it a little longer, and similar to
(01:57:57):
CJ or CJ, similar to Joe Burrow, they've making franchises
and everybody, even though Cincinnati went to the playoffs like
the Texans did, floundering around the scouting department and trying
to find the coach and you know, they're just not
getting to super Bowls.
Speaker 1 (01:58:10):
Theyre not dominating every year.
Speaker 4 (01:58:12):
Well, we think the Texans are now and Cincinnati now
since Burrough's air is one of those players now, so
I understand why Burrow's air Now. Burrow stays healthy all
year long, and so does CJ, and they go get it.
Both of them are top five or top six guys
right now, so they're not far behind. I think it
just is done it longer. And Burrow's been in a
Super Bowl and carried his team to phenomenal, phenomenal heights
(01:58:35):
on a for Cincinnati Bengals team that was not very good.
Speaker 1 (01:58:38):
So there are similarities.
Speaker 4 (01:58:39):
I just think it's a little longer and the conversation
probably even better after two or three years to see
where CJ.
Speaker 1 (01:58:45):
And Joe Burrow stack up.
Speaker 4 (01:58:47):
But for my money, if I get to you, if
I'm naming five quarterbacks, Burrows one of them. It's the
injury thing that now starts to concern you. Can he
stay healthy for the next decade? We'll see Sports Talk

Sean Salisbury.
Speaker 17 (02:00:25):
To usc Truth, longtime friend Shawn Salisbury.
Speaker 3 (02:00:27):
Ryan Lima, go Lobos. This is the Sean Salisbury Show.
Speaker 1 (02:00:35):
I want you to understand some I'm gonna say.
Speaker 4 (02:00:36):
I'm standing on the mountaintop and telling you Bregman's going
to play first base.
Speaker 1 (02:00:40):
He's got gremlins and his elbow dog.
Speaker 4 (02:00:43):
I'm not saying down the road saying he's a third baseman.
You're gonna play first base for this team? You want
him in the lineup?
Speaker 1 (02:00:51):
Yes? I do. Do you want your on in left
field every play? Every every game? You do? You want
him in left field every game? I want him in
the lineup somehow, I wouldn't mind him, As I.
Speaker 4 (02:00:59):
Said, left field every day for fifty more games the
playoffs all it's sixty more games.
Speaker 1 (02:01:03):
Does it keep Chas McCormick and Jake Myers out of
the lineup. No, but it keeps Alex Bregman out of lineup?
So who plays? If you?
Speaker 4 (02:01:11):
If you, if you, if you put it you're talking
about if he's in left field? Yea, it keeps Alex
Reed in the lineup. Do you want him to play
every day field?
Speaker 1 (02:01:21):
Jordan? Yes, every day left field. No, I don't not
every day. Now you're I already know you're it's going
through your head.
Speaker 4 (02:01:28):
Do you think and Jordan left field, Alex Bregman, the
DH Victor Carrettina first base.
Speaker 6 (02:01:32):
DNA he had to play, Yeah, I'm I'm with that,
or vice versa. The catcher in the matin both catchers. Yes,
But then that one hundred and what we got it.
Speaker 4 (02:01:41):
We're one hundred and thirty games every thirty six games
and twenty some games, yeah played.
Speaker 1 (02:01:48):
How many games is Jordan played left field this year?
I don't know. Is it more than thirty?
Speaker 6 (02:01:52):
I can get it real quick. By the way, we
got a Drew store in joining us. Next segment.
Speaker 1 (02:01:57):
He's did as well former uh eight seasons as a pitcher.
Let me get this real quick, Stanford.
Speaker 4 (02:02:03):
Guy by position this year? Come on, man, computers would
run a little slow. Bear with me, why you're looking
that up? So if you want Bregman and Jordon in
the lineup every day without Jordon having to play left field,
(02:02:25):
even though he hits well when he plays left field,
without that, if you wanted him there every day, you'd
play him there every day because it hasn't exactly been
a dominant position this year for the Astros at the plate.
Does that make sense? It's not like I mean low
Berfido struggled at times at the plate. He's no longer here.
McCormick's had a rough year. So if you want every
day player in left field, you would have put Jordan
(02:02:46):
out there regularly this season. Du Bond can play there,
but I'm gonna need him at third base a lot
of times if Bregman's not playing third base this season.
Speaker 6 (02:02:54):
Yordon Alvarez has started one hundred and twenty games, seventy
nine of those as D eight.
Speaker 1 (02:03:00):
And forty one of those in left field.
Speaker 4 (02:03:01):
Okay, so he can do it. We've already seen that.
We know he's formidable. They don't want to play him
out there every day, or they would have correct, correct, Yeah,
all right, So if you're not gonna play him, I understand. Now.
If you play him out there in left field, then
you got Bregman of DH, and just like we said,
you got those four bats in a lineup, Kroteni and
Diaz first base and catcher as well. That's the best
of all worlds. Okay, best to all worlds. But you
(02:03:25):
do not want Bregman out of the lineup ever? Correct, Yes,
you don't. You have to have Okay, So you look
me in the face. Do you believe they're gonna play
your on left field every day?
Speaker 1 (02:03:36):
Every day?
Speaker 6 (02:03:36):
No, less than a third of the time for the
rest of the way thirty six games left, ten of them. No,
it'll be more than that, you Yeah, Now it's gonna
have to be well, does it, yes?
Speaker 1 (02:03:51):
Every day?
Speaker 4 (02:03:52):
Yeah, if Bregman's your first baseman, does it No. That's
my point that alleviates that if you don't play Bregman
on the days you d H Jordon Alvarez, which will
be probably more than half of them. Let's just did
you buy I'm just going by stats regard because they'll
put Dubona, They'll they'll mix and match the out corner, outfield,
(02:04:12):
tul Tucker comes back.
Speaker 5 (02:04:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:04:14):
And Jordan's a good he can play left field. All
this as under standing. He hits well.
Speaker 4 (02:04:18):
But if you play him, if you decide the days
you're gonna dh him, Let's say it's half the time.
Let's just split it in half. I say that counting
two rounds of playoffs. Let's say we got fifty games
twenty five and left field twenty five DH.
Speaker 1 (02:04:31):
Okay, where are you playing Bregman those twenty five games?
And Tucker? Still we're not saying Tucker till after Labor Day.
You and I know that.
Speaker 6 (02:04:39):
It just seems from what we've heard over the last
two days in regards to Bregman's elbow and what he
said to the media last night, he's probably not going
to play third.
Speaker 1 (02:04:46):
Base, so when and obviously right.
Speaker 6 (02:04:51):
So basically just just recapping what we're discussing. In order
to get him and Jordan in the lineup at the
same time every day. Every day, you're gonna I have
to have some sort of mix of Bregman is dh
Caratini Diaz at first or catching vice versa, and then
Jord on the left. And if you don't have Jord
on a left then what do you do because you're
not gonna not have you want to bat in the
(02:05:13):
lineup in this stretch run and going in the plass.
You want to play baseball without Bregman's battle. And if
he can't play third base, then where's he going to
be on the bench If he's not playing ath that's
not gonna happen, right. So so this and also what
it gives you with that flexibility is not to be
forced to play Jordon in left field. Right now, I
can date Jordan, no problem, put him out there when
I need to make sure I'm preserving his legs. And
(02:05:35):
guess what, I can play him at first base right.
His glove will be fine. He's smart.
Speaker 4 (02:05:42):
He may relay once in a while throw it around
the horn, which he he doesn't. He doesn't need to
underhand that or keep him out of the around the horn,
right if you're depending.
Speaker 6 (02:05:52):
Right, And this whole notion about moving guys to play
first base being a difficult thing. If Mauricio Dubon can
play first, And this is no disrespect to do Bonni
the gold glove, and you.
Speaker 4 (02:06:00):
Still disrespect the first base, right, who can play Bregman
can play first base? Well, if you can handle the
hot corner third, you can handle Scooter first with a
bigger glove. Yes, I don't actually think that there's much.
I don't think you have a lot of latitude here.
If you aren't willing to do that, there's not You
are more encumber I mean it's cumbersome to have. If
(02:06:23):
you're not playing Bregman every day at the plate, it's
gonna your your lineup. Do you talk about bandwidth it
it's limited then yeah, because you still have And if
you're going to DH one of those catchers with two
catchers on the roster your hose, he can't you and
you need him because the guy pulls a hammy run
in the bases, who's catching, then you're to bring somebody
up when they expan the roster.
Speaker 5 (02:06:44):
Right.
Speaker 4 (02:06:44):
So, to me, an easy transition is when jord On
Dhs Bregman plays first base. And even on the days
you say well Jrdon's and left field, you may still
want Bregman in his glove at first base and having
Kartini or if you bring a third catchup, then you're
safe with Salazar and then you can DH when we
(02:07:06):
don't lose the DH. If you have to switch positions.
To me, it's an absolute no brainer. Did Bregman get
run at first base? How much depends on yourd on's
left field DH stuff.
Speaker 6 (02:07:17):
Yeah, cause again, you cannot afford to not have him
in your line up.
Speaker 4 (02:07:22):
If they have Bregman playing part time and Tucker's still hurt,
they're not winning a World Series.
Speaker 1 (02:07:28):
They're not.
Speaker 4 (02:07:29):
I know they've done great without Tucker, but you can't
keep living like this. And then all of a sudden, ah,
let's get Bregman once every four days, because well he's
only the DH. He can't play third Hell no, put
his asci at first base.
Speaker 6 (02:07:40):
He's good enough to do it, you know. And one
thing Dana Brown told us yesterday here on the show.
Speaker 1 (02:07:46):
Has he every Wednesday?
Speaker 6 (02:07:47):
If you miss it's up on our block Sports seven
ninety dot com. He said, quote, he could play third
base today, but the plan has been to ease him
back in his DH end quote. Okay, so there's that,
But then what Bregman says afterwards, tripley can you run
that audio real quick of Bregman. It's a quick This
is Bregman after.
Speaker 1 (02:08:02):
The game yesterday. There's swelling.
Speaker 13 (02:08:04):
Obviously, there's no nothing structurally wrong with the UCL, but
some little congremlins in there causing some swelling that I'm
just gonna have to try and mitigate through the rest
of the year and keep the swelling out.
Speaker 6 (02:08:17):
Okay, So basically from what I'm gathering from that, mitigate
throughout the entire rest of the season. Right, that shows
me that there's not going to be a lot of
third base being played because of theirs swelling in your elbow.
If it doesn't bother him when he's hitting, he's going
to be a d H and that's it. Or well,
we're discussing put him somewhere so he's all so all
of the best bats are in the lineup, he's going to.
Speaker 4 (02:08:37):
Play first base. I'm just telling you. And we say mitigate,
you know how you mitigate it. And this team's been
extra conservative with injuries, making sure you don't rush anybody back, Right,
why would you take the risk you're playing it? You decide, well,
you know what he feels better today, Let's go play
him at third and all of a sudden, he has
to make an unbelievable thrower diving play and then he
heard again, and now you don't get him at the plate.
Speaker 1 (02:08:59):
Now you can get it at all. First base, yeah, DH,
and first pace.
Speaker 4 (02:09:03):
Yes, you get plenty of bandwidth and latitude with the
rest of the players. You can if you're if you're
struggling big and left field, Jordan can go out there
and play left and you can still play Bregman at
first base or DH. Alex Bregman absolutely has to play
first base if you want him in the lineup every
day when especially you need Jordon is the DH on
days you don't want him in left field? Yepman had
(02:09:24):
I can't. Bregman can't be a platoon player when he's batting.
I mean when we got his bat right, he's got
to play. Yeah, there's no chance that that you can't
have him. And the only way to do that is
play him at first base. Yeah, there's no other option.
Isn't it crazy? This season piece of than just more
adversity that we're discussing for this team.
Speaker 1 (02:09:41):
It's it's it's it's insane.
Speaker 4 (02:09:42):
And I got news for you. You won't miss a beat,
No defensively with him. No, I won't miss a beat, No,
not one beat. And I'm not so sure he's not.
With that small glove at third base and all the
stuff he does. Give him a bigger glove at first base.
I'm not worried about short hops getting by the guy.
He's caught plenty of those on on a smoke one
hundred and five yard line drive off the bat right. Okay,
(02:10:03):
it short hops him going to his left or right
and he has to backhand it. Now you're just going
to have to throw him out, put him at first base,
and when Jordan's dhing, he stays at first base. When
Jordon's in left field, you have the luxury of the
truth is you would DH him then so you don't
lose the DH. When you got Keratini and and Diaz
catching and playing first base, that's your lineup.
Speaker 6 (02:10:23):
Then you bring John Singleton off the bench to play first.
If you got to move one to catch up, well, you.
Speaker 4 (02:10:27):
Need a fastball, late inning, fastball hitter that's a righty
verse lefty. And then you got the flexibility of Dubond
in centerfield or left field, depending or third base or Altuve.
And then hopefully Tucker gets back, and you got your.
Speaker 6 (02:10:38):
Permanent right field yep, and then you got two young
guys would come into Zenzo fill in whatever.
Speaker 1 (02:10:42):
Rud could play four different positions right there, you go,
got to play him at first base.
Speaker 6 (02:10:47):
Former Major League Baseball pitcher Drew Storing is going to
join the show next right here on Sports Talks seven ninety.
But before we get to Drew, let's talk about Brotherly
Love Electric and their American made Briggs and Stratton home generator.
You know, you're you're looking around at some of these
other generator providers and trying to get yourself a quote
on it. You call a couple of them up, and
(02:11:08):
then they tell you about their lead times and they
tell you five six months, and you're like, oh, well,
I can't wait that long because the storm might hit
prior to that. You don't get that. With Brotherly Love Electric.
They have the shortest lead times in the city right now.
They have a fully stocked warehouse as well, and it's
everything you need to get ahead of these big time
storms that come through the city. We know how it goes.
(02:11:29):
We saw what happened with Hurricane Berrel. We saw what
happened with the directro windstorm and thunderstorms that come through here.
Power gets knocked out. You got to get rid of
your food in your fridge, your freezer. You lose power,
you lose your air conditioning, you lose Wi Fi, so
forth and so on. Get ahead of it and get
yourself an American made brig Stratton generator from Brotherly Love Electric.
Three four six seven seven seven three three seven zero
(02:11:51):
three four six seven seven seven three three seven zero.
That's the number to call to get yourself a free
quote from Brotherly Love Electric and their American made brigs
and Stratton home generator. They're a diamond dealer offering the
largest air cooled union on the market, including ten year
warranty models for American Maid brigin Stratton home generators. Brotherly
Love Electric, It's a connection you can count on. This
(02:12:12):
is Sports.
Speaker 3 (02:12:12):
Talk seven ninety, home of the Rockets, Astros and the
best line up in Houston Sports. Now back to Sean Salisbury.
Speaker 4 (02:12:21):
Don't kid yourself your storm joins his longtime Major League
eight years and the Stanford guy. So he's gonna make
us all smarter through this, and he's got a great
thing going on. Drew Welcome in Man we appreciate you.
We'll talk some baseball talk. Product I was looking at
a video of you in the past and you were
talking about you. Is it product development? This is what
(02:12:42):
you thought if you weren't playing baseball or when you're done,
what you wanted to do?
Speaker 1 (02:12:46):
Well, I'll be damned you developed an awesome one.
Speaker 4 (02:12:49):
But when did you know you wanted to do something
other than baseball? And what really got your goat when
you were going?
Speaker 8 (02:12:56):
Yeah, so that was always my backup playing. First of all,
thanks for having me on guys. Great awesome, Yeah, yeah, oh,
appreciate it. No, I just always had a flare for design.
My mom's a graphic designer, so I was like fifty fifty.
I would go play sports, and then she worked from home,
so I would go drawl. And then once once I
went to Stanford and you know, I got the itch
out there with taking some really cool classes taught by
(02:13:19):
people that worked at Apple and all that. So I
always wanted to have that backup plan and always had
knew I needed to have an answer once I hung
it up, because I can't just sit still.
Speaker 4 (02:13:28):
Were you doing in your off seasons? Did you dabble
in other stuff?
Speaker 8 (02:13:33):
Yeah? So I actually, when I was in DC, I
drew up and designed the elevated seeding in the bullpen
that they ended up putting in. Yeah. So I was
tired of tired of looking through the fence, so I
campaigned for it. Took me about two seasons, I think,
and then the ownership got it done for us. So
that's my h That was my active on top of
(02:13:56):
just you know, designing little things on my cleat. That
was pretty much how I used it.
Speaker 4 (02:14:00):
How awesome is that Stanford guy? Eight years in professional baseball,
most of it was Washington. They better have given you
a great finders fee, designers fee for that good grace.
That's architecture, that's rolling with some blueprint and then putting
it to you. Strew Storren, longtime Major League baseball player pitcher,
joins us here on the Sean Salisbury Show. All right, Drew,
we're gonna let's talk a little baseball first and then
I want to hit this product hard and how cool
(02:14:21):
it is?
Speaker 1 (02:14:22):
First off?
Speaker 4 (02:14:23):
And how cud A lot of guys with my buddies
that you know when I played, when they quit playing,
they didn't watch much. Do you still watch a ton
of baseball?
Speaker 8 (02:14:34):
I've reapproached it now that my oldest son is seven,
so he's getting real into it. And so now now
that he's old enough to kind of get what I
used to do, and I get to watch it with
him and teach him the game. Right, I have no
idea who half the guys are that I'll tell you
that it's crazy, the type of turnover there's been and
how fast time flies. You know, It's like, man, it's
been four years since I last played, So it's crazy,
(02:14:57):
But I do I'm enjoying it now because you know,
it's a completely different game than when I was playing.
Speaker 1 (02:15:03):
Yeah, no question about it. And part of that.
Speaker 4 (02:15:05):
We're here in Houston and it's been a pretty damn
good run, Drew. You know, seven straight a lcs's and
you were you you were playing when they were in
the middle of this run. And they've had three managerial
changes and they've all been successful and you know gms,
and yet they continue to win. Let me ask you,
from your years in a clubhouse and seeing it and
with these astros, does winning come before chemistry or is
(02:15:28):
chemistry create winning?
Speaker 8 (02:15:32):
You can definitely have chemistry without winning, but I think
you know, winning solves everything right, and it's much easier
to create great chemistry. And you know, and you have guys,
you have staples, you know, guys that there there's the
astroway right, always talk about the Cardinal way, but there's
like there's a core and they know if you're going
to go play for the Astros, this is what this
is how you know the expectations are here and you
(02:15:54):
know that's that's why they've had the repeated success. And
you know, I was pumped to see Dana Brown get
the job because I love that guy. I was he
was there in DC and I love him as a
baseball and as a person.
Speaker 4 (02:16:06):
Yeah, you know what's interesting, we went they went out
and got Kokuchi during the trade deadline, and here in
Houston people were, you know, when you give away young prospects,
people like, oh, why are we doing this for a
guy who struggled? Yet Dana was steadfast and good fastball.
We're going to utilize him, right, And here he is
in four starts, his pitch pretty damn well. And with
all these injuries to the Astros pitching staff, these young
(02:16:28):
guys and veterans that are new here have had to
step their game up and Dana Brown. The talent has
always been an eye for scouting talent and regardless of
what people are saying, And you saw a part of that.
He's been doing that here and it's been paying off
for the Astros.
Speaker 8 (02:16:42):
Oh yeah, I damn near gave up a touchdown in
Arizona State. He was an attendance for it, and they
still drafted me. So you know, he's able to see through.
He's able to see through, you know, some of the noise.
So I always appreciated that.
Speaker 4 (02:16:55):
Will it be pitching or hitting when you watch what
Judge is doing and Otani's doing. Will it be pitching
or hitting when it gets to the postseason or is
this just like defense in football? If you get stops,
that game's even changed. You get a great quarterback, you
can overcome some average defense. Is it still about pitching
in the postseason?
Speaker 1 (02:17:12):
Drew?
Speaker 8 (02:17:13):
Yeah, I think to me, it's so much about hitting.
It's just grindy hitting. You know, everybody is going up,
you know with Haymaker punches now, but those guys that
are able to get the four whole six hole single,
like that's the kryptonite in big games. Is to me
that you know, if a guy if I was facing
the guy and you know he's trying to be the hero,
(02:17:34):
I had him right where you are. But it's those
guys that were like, well, you know, the Cardinals are
always great about that, just taking the pitch of the
outside corner and just feeding it the other side. Like,
that's to me what the difference maker is in the postseason.
And that comes with the experience, which obviously the Astros
have plenty of it, and you can't teach that.
Speaker 4 (02:17:50):
Drew Storm, longtime pitcher major League Baseball, most of it
with Washington. Stanford grad joins us here talking baseball, talking
this product, which is awesome. We're going to get to
right now. But Drew, you hit it, and I know
with the way change and where at launch angle and
all that stuff that we do. But when it gets
right down to it, pitchers hate small ball, don't they,
And when they're opposing small ball because big swingers you
(02:18:13):
can get out. So in truth, solid pitching, good defense,
but putting the ball in play ends up being the difference. Now,
the home run matters. You got a slug, but that
small ball is a is a killer for opposing pitchers.
Speaker 1 (02:18:25):
Correct, Oh, yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:18:27):
For sure, because you know especially late in a game
a reliever, it takes an egregious mistake for you to
pretty much get shot. And so you know, it's it's
when you make a good pitch and then they do
a good piece of hitting. That's the most defeating thing.
Like if you hang one down the middle and the
guy hits it off the train tracks. Yeah, of course
that's supposed to happen. But it's like, Okay, I'm painted
(02:18:48):
that down in a way and he just you know,
took me the other way, Like, man, what am I
supposed to do with that?
Speaker 4 (02:18:53):
Right?
Speaker 5 (02:18:53):
Right?
Speaker 4 (02:18:54):
He hit your good pitch? There you go right instead
of one you miss that? There you good? That's great. Well,
the Astros after being ten games out or five games
in front, and they've had like eight guys and Kyle
Tucker's still not playing, So it's a holding out hope
that this will be one of those special seasons. Is
going for eight alcs is in a row. All right,
let's switch to this great product. You guys sent me
(02:19:16):
three bottles. I got Randy Johnson with our sc connection,
Nolan Ryan with the Houston connection, and I was in
Dallas for Well and Kirby Puckett one of my all
time favorite guys, God Rest his soul in Minnesota. With
my background in sports, each bottles the numbered All right,
first off, tell tell the folks how Field of Dreams
Whiskey came about.
Speaker 8 (02:19:36):
Yeah. So, when I was in DC, I caught the
bourbon bug kind of before a lot of people did.
So it was like twenty thirteen and a massed a
collection of bourbon that goes back to Prohibition era, you
name the crazy story. I probably overpaid for it.
Speaker 1 (02:19:51):
But you got it sometimes, right, just to have it there, yeah,
I'm with you.
Speaker 8 (02:19:54):
Yeah, yeah, And just to have and be able, you know,
give people the tour and say, Okay, here's this bottle,
here's a crazy story about this. And one of the
first the first book I read was called The Best
Bermon You'll Never Taste and it's about age or sixteen.
So I just fell in love with the lore of
it and just started collecting. And so throughout collecting, my
best friend from home, Andy, and I were on a
(02:20:16):
road trip talking about like, okay, if we were going
to do something, what would we do? And that's when
we had the idea to use the Field of Dreams corn.
So that was twenty eighteen, So fast forward. You know,
we had nobody said it was a bad idea for
two years and then I'm at the end of my
career and I'm like, you know, this seems a lot
more fun than kind of living out of a suitcase,
(02:20:37):
and you know, the game was coming up, and so
I decided to lead baseball and start this and got
my former teammate Tyler Clipper involved at brief astro and
then another teammate, Jerry Blevins.
Speaker 5 (02:20:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:20:50):
I was going to say, Lisa was founded by and
owned by major leaguers, right, guys that you've known and
played played against her with, right.
Speaker 8 (02:20:56):
Yeah, Yeah, So this it's kind of our own approach
to and that we keep it simple. A lot of
brands have you know, a distillery already exists and you're
you know, guys are mascots. Now every decision is made
by us. All the design is done by me. Like,
so it's it's kind of special in that way, and
we're just trying to tell authentic baseball stories. So that's
(02:21:18):
why we obviously use the most famous corn in the world.
And then we parallel whiskey numbers with baseball numbers. So
as you mentioned with our annual player series release. It's
one bottle for every guy that's ever made to Major League.
Speaker 4 (02:21:28):
For number, even if he stepped one game on the field,
he blend, and it'll change the number if all of
a sudden you go back in time and somebody that
you discover in history, somebody else will It may move
somebody's number later, right, But every single guy who's downed
a uniform and been on a Major league field has
a number of bottle.
Speaker 10 (02:21:47):
Yes.
Speaker 8 (02:21:48):
So it's I always say, it's like our player D
and V number right to what you were aligned. So
I was nineteen seven thirty six. And so we actually
built the website so that you can plug in your
number and who you get.
Speaker 4 (02:22:00):
And that's at Drink DRINKFIELDO dreams dot com. Is that where,
that's at slash buy online you can get it. That's
where you can get the whiskey.
Speaker 8 (02:22:07):
Right correct, And then there's a bottle look up tab
there as well. Yeah, we're we shipped to Texas, so
we would love to get down there, but because we
know what a great baseball market is. But yeah, if
you go to our site, you can get a shipped
to you. We're almost sold out of those and we
have a small batch coming up which we've licensed fifteen
(02:22:28):
plus retire guys that we laser etched their face and
autograph on the on the tops and we're going to
be covering that with opaque plastic, so you don't know
who you get. You have to open it.
Speaker 1 (02:22:38):
Oh no, it's awesome. What a passion you have for
I can tell you.
Speaker 4 (02:22:42):
But this is like an exciting for you as baseball
was getting buddies involved. And I'm telling you, when you
guys send it to me, I popped that bottle open.
And this isn't to say this. I've talked about this
before you. You came Andrew a couple of weeks ago.
And it's so good though, I mean, the ta it
goes down so smooth. What And I'm so intrigued with
(02:23:02):
how did you make the call and go about getting
the Field of Dreams corn? Is there was there a
line to stand in for that or were you that
first one that ever asked for it?
Speaker 5 (02:23:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (02:23:12):
I think I think there was some gate keeping going on,
But I just went on LinkedIn and found somebody was
on the board and he had his email on there,
so I just fired off and email and hoped he
was a big baseball fan, and luckily he was and
supportive of what I was wanting to do and connected
me with any Ray, who just a couple of years
older than me, who was the farmer that takes care
(02:23:33):
of it, and you know, we're best friends at this point.
But I told him, I'm like, hey, man, here's what
I'm thinking. You know, I've got this design background, baseball background,
and and I love bourbon. I love the stories, and
I think this makes a lot of sense. And so
I was like, sure, Well, He's like, I usually just
take it in town and sell like feed corn. So
I was like, dude, we will take care of you.
Speaker 1 (02:23:53):
Might as well feed us some good bourbon while we're
at it. Man. Drew Storren A long time.
Speaker 4 (02:23:57):
A couple more minutes, real quick with Drew Storren here
on the Sean Salisbury Show, longtime major league pitcher, most
of it with Washington and a great designer and developer.
And they've got this incredible field of dreams, whiskey and
different small batch coming out as well. All right, how
do we get it? And how do we get it
here in Texas on the shelves. I know they can
order it again at the field of Dreams dot com,
(02:24:18):
Drinkfield Dreams dot com, slash buy online and the tabs
there also for the number and to go into that
to see what number you get if you get it.
So with that, how do we get it here in Texas?
And is there a timeframe? And how can we help you?
Because if you need a distributor or you need a
guy going out and hawking, and I'm in brother, because
it tastes a list.
Speaker 3 (02:24:36):
Oh you're the man.
Speaker 8 (02:24:37):
I appreciate. Yes, we we actually are looking to come
to Texas as quick as we can get there. So
if anybody is a distributor or if you're a retailer
and you want to carry us, just go to our
website and contact us. And you know we luckily we're thinned,
so we can move quick and we're going to have
plenty of small batch.
Speaker 4 (02:24:55):
So think about this baseball Texas and bourbon and a
successful baseball team and you're designed behind it and telling
great baseball stories and might as well go win another
World Series.
Speaker 1 (02:25:07):
It has to be here, doesn't it. Let's get this
thing rolling on.
Speaker 8 (02:25:10):
Man, absolutely, I appreciate it.
Speaker 5 (02:25:12):

of Houston, the Heights, Parlam, Pasadena, Cypers, and spring Fellas.
If you're sluggish, struggling in the bedroom, don't have good workouts.
You just feel crappy throughout the toy. You're probably struggling
from low testosterone. Trust me, it happens, especially when you
(02:27:04):
get to the age of thirty. Get over to Men's
T Clinic, get your blood drawn, and get on a
total wellness optimization plan. It takes just about ten minutes
to get those results back. You will not be disappointed
with the treatment over at Men's Tea Clinic, five locations.
Like I said, Men's Tea Clinic has been leading the
way for safe effect. I've been always individualized testosterone replacement
therapy and total illness optimization for ten years strong. Right
(02:27:26):
here in the Houston area and of course up in
Dallas Fort Worth as well. Get over to one of
those locations right here in the city one eight two
four six low T MEN'ST Clinic dot com.
Speaker 1 (02:27:35):
Tell them that Brian Lima sent you.
Speaker 3 (02:27:39):
The Shawn Salisbury Show continued, Well as you could tell,
I'm not a burd drigger really.
Speaker 1 (02:27:50):
Oh hell, I'd like my eyes frozen. Ya give it
to me. Give me hey, man, you gotta come get
some some fild dreams whiskey with me.
Speaker 6 (02:28:00):
Yeah, man, I'd like it to make it. I even
said I'd like it neat and on the rocks. Thank you,
I said, well, I'm not sure you could do bull.
We could do both, but I don't think you can
have it at the same time of your life.
Speaker 1 (02:28:10):
Don't think.
Speaker 4 (02:28:11):
Well, you know, you can see I don't do I
don't drink much bourbon or whiskey. You don't say no,
I sure don't.
Speaker 6 (02:28:21):
Oh man, Alex called back, so let's get to him
real quick, Alex, what's happening.
Speaker 1 (02:28:24):
Thanks for calling back.
Speaker 5 (02:28:26):
Not a problem, man, what's going on with fellas? Hey?
Speaker 1 (02:28:28):
Real quick? For the first base thing. I think we
should bring back Jose Brady.
Speaker 5 (02:28:32):
Now I'm playing.
Speaker 1 (02:28:32):
Don't take my hand. There's no chance. No, I'm I'm
messing around with that one.
Speaker 5 (02:28:38):
Not.
Speaker 7 (02:28:38):
I think Bregman at first base is a good plan.
It saves the arm. He doesn't have to throw, you know,
one hundred and five ire balls across an entire diamond.
I even think that if they would have done that
a little sooner, some of those balls that were getting by,
you know, Yiner and a couple of the other ones,
I don't think they would have gotten by.
Speaker 1 (02:28:57):
He's such a lock on the corner as it's unreal.
Speaker 7 (02:28:59):
I think I think first base would be the absolute
right miss.
Speaker 4 (02:29:03):
So you're all in on what I said about that.
I I one hundred percent buy into that, don't you, Alex,
I really do.
Speaker 5 (02:29:09):
I do.
Speaker 7 (02:29:10):
I think that is that's the move to you at
least keep that bat, especially in the month of August.
But it is hot as he gets in August and
end of September, that would be the move to keep
him in the lineup on a daily basis.
Speaker 4 (02:29:22):
Yeah, and if all of a sudden in September the
elbow feels great, then good Tucker comes back. Your don said,
we're all good, but you might find a hidden gym here.
And I don't think you're going to lose one ounce defensively,
I don't.
Speaker 1 (02:29:34):
I don't either. I don't either.
Speaker 4 (02:29:36):
Matter of fact, it'll be the best glove they've had
at first base since Yulie.
Speaker 1 (02:29:39):
I'm telling you, I believe.
Speaker 4 (02:29:42):
I believe that he can play that position that good
on they either corner endfield.
Speaker 1 (02:29:47):
I do, so why not? Why not milk it while
you can.
Speaker 4 (02:29:50):
The worst thing you'd have to do is what make
a relay throw unless somebody else took the relay from
right field.
Speaker 1 (02:29:55):
And and and just swing that bat.
Speaker 4 (02:29:57):
As you mentioned, August is his best month right and
heading into September at the plate, I gotta have him
in the lineup and it gives me more bandwidth. I'm
all for it, Alex, gotta do it.
Speaker 1 (02:30:07):
Absolutely real quick. Two quick points, Sean.
Speaker 7 (02:30:12):
Earlier, Brian said that his knowledge of movies and music
on this show is unmassed.
Speaker 1 (02:30:17):
Yeah, and he that was about it.
Speaker 4 (02:30:19):
That's the biggest lie you've ever heard on radio because
it's unmatched for a person who's not born yet that
doesn't know anything about movies or or or or what's
or music. You know more about music than movies. Yes,
I'll give you that credit question.
Speaker 1 (02:30:31):
Yeah, Nationally.
Speaker 7 (02:30:32):
Now that being said, they have these replica championship like
wrestling and UFC belts you can get and Sean, I
think what you ought to do is get one that
says wealth of Useless Knowledge Champion and play it right
above your desk.
Speaker 1 (02:30:44):
And I don't you know that in that studio, you
know you're onto something.
Speaker 4 (02:30:47):
I'm gonna get t shirts printed up with the unpaved
brand that I got, Yeah, and I'm gonna hand them
out too. You damned rights and that it starts with
the championship belt because guess what useless knowledge is where
championships are won. Okay, how's that for a quote? And
that's where we're going.
Speaker 7 (02:31:03):
Yeah, last point h two days ago, I saw uh
the a team on the Space City Network like Simulcats,
and I was just trying to figure out when y'all
were going to get to do that, because I'd watch
that show from six to ten every morning religiously y'all
interact with each other.
Speaker 1 (02:31:22):
Hey, we've been saying this for a couple of months now, Alex.
Speaker 4 (02:31:24):
Yeah, we were ten miles over broken glass. We get
all four. Oh, buddy, I think you'd like that better
than tape tape content. That's just me, that's.
Speaker 1 (02:31:34):
Me, but would agree. Yeah, I appreciate Alex.
Speaker 4 (02:31:37):
I appreciate you. Yeah, I take that. I think people
over their coffee. They'd be spitting out coffee quite off,
and I'd love it.
Speaker 6 (02:31:43):
I got a message from a buddy that said he
was listening and driving down the road and you were
talking about pound cake and he said he spit his
coffee out.
Speaker 1 (02:31:50):
Thanks.
Speaker 4 (02:31:52):
Yeah, sometimes you Hey, sometimes it's just sometimes you have
to deliver pound cake.
Speaker 1 (02:31:56):
Can simply name yourself, Sarah Lee. You were talking to
Triple like in the six fifteen.
Speaker 4 (02:32:01):
Say what did you did you say anything or did
you just deliver parent cake?
Speaker 1 (02:32:05):
Yeah? Yeah he didn't. He wasn't called snookums.
Speaker 4 (02:32:08):
So if you're not calling your lady or your guy snookems,
then you're not really you're.
Speaker 1 (02:32:12):
Not cheesy enough. Do you call him?
Speaker 4 (02:32:14):
I wouldn't call anybody snook thems. Okay, you don't call
your guys?
Speaker 1 (02:32:18):
What do you call him? Well, you know you text man.
I appreciate that.
Speaker 6 (02:32:27):
Yeah, let's get into the final segment of a Thursday
listen to the Sewn Salisbury Show.

Speaker 1 (02:34:26):
CJ.
Speaker 6 (02:34:27):
Stroud to Stefan Diggs for like a fifty plus yard
touchdown bomb. Dak Prescott's not doing that triple e.
Speaker 1 (02:34:36):
Who was that? I thought you're a duch, you're Cowboys fan? Never?
Speaker 6 (02:34:40):
No, Okay, that's good. Welcome to the Texans Man. Alright,
let's say, let's get two final calls here. Let's get
to Ron and then Robert. You on the show. Ron,
good morning, Good morning.
Speaker 2 (02:34:50):
Hey, just a quick topic change. If the Ashals keep
going the way they are make the playoffs, does the
spot get consideration for Manager.
Speaker 5 (02:34:58):
Of the Year.
Speaker 6 (02:34:59):
Yeah, Ron, we actually talked about that quite a bit
last week. I believe as it stands, right now, even
if the Astros don't don't get to do you say,
just the playoffs?
Speaker 10 (02:35:10):
No, no, just I mean obviously that would help.
Speaker 1 (02:35:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (02:35:13):
So so what Sean and I have talked about all
a lot last week is right now.
Speaker 1 (02:35:18):
It's a two horse race.
Speaker 6 (02:35:19):
In our opinion, it's Voight for the Cleveland Guardians, the manager,
their first year rookie manager, they're one of the best
teams in baseball.
Speaker 1 (02:35:26):
And then Joe A. Spota. So yeah, I think he
gets considered a heavy consideration.
Speaker 5 (02:35:31):
All right, thank you very much, appreciate.
Speaker 6 (02:35:33):
You, appreciate it, Ron, And let's get to Robert. Robert,
what's happening?
Speaker 17 (02:35:38):
And Breggie hits a home run yesterday and I wake
up to you guys telling me that that.
Speaker 1 (02:35:45):
I heard the Grimlin quote, but that, man, it's I
guess it's I guess.
Speaker 17 (02:35:49):
We don't know what's going on, but it's worse than
we might think, and hopefully hopefully he can play third.
Just man, he's so valuable over there. And I get
I get what y'all been talking about all morning, but
it does uh oh, and by the way, y'all should
be suld on Space City. It reminds me of moneyball.
Speaker 1 (02:36:09):
Do you'll remember when Scotty Hadiburn.
Speaker 17 (02:36:12):
Yeah, and he's sitting, He's sitting in this he's sitting
in his house. Then he says, uh, first base isn't hard.
Speaker 1 (02:36:18):
Tell him wash, it's really it's extremely hard, and it
just makes me.
Speaker 4 (02:36:23):
But the difference is Hadiberg was a catcher, Yeah, and
wasn't used to the ball coming out of that, you
know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (02:36:30):
And he survived it.
Speaker 4 (02:36:31):
But but Bregman's glove, don't you think is so good
Robert that that.
Speaker 1 (02:36:37):
He'll adjust quickly?
Speaker 4 (02:36:38):
And if I have to have him, if I need
him in the lineup every day, which I do is
bat and Jordan's not going to play left field. I
every day I have to have him play, and first
base is the logical place right got to have him.
Speaker 17 (02:36:50):
You know, you know what I go to is And
I'm not comparing myself to these pro athletes, believe me,
but I played center field, and even if I had
to go left or right, the way the ball comes
off the bat, it's a difference, no athletes.
Speaker 5 (02:37:03):
So it's it's it's.
Speaker 17 (02:37:04):
But no, dude, every day y'all do a great job.
I appreciate y'all and go get I'm gonna cast it.
Speaker 1 (02:37:10):
Let's go.
Speaker 4 (02:37:11):
Thank you, appreciate, appreciate the compliment. It is different and
it's not easy, but I believe Bregman's hands are so adepted.
You know, he's so good. He can play first If
you can't throw it, you got to keep in the
line up first base. Bregman got to play him there.
Speaker 6 (02:37:24):
Man, if you're not ding him, we got a big
show tomorrow, Sean, I hope you're ready.
Speaker 1 (02:37:28):
Come on, man, you're storing by the way in that
nice the field of dreams.
Speaker 6 (02:37:32):
Whiskey, Stefan Diggs just call like a fifty yard bomb
from C. J. Stroud to open up joint practice Texans
against the Rams.
Speaker 1 (02:37:38):
They just cook the Rams.
Speaker 4 (02:37:40):
Well, you gotta you know what you got to do
though with Stroud and and Diggs.
Speaker 1 (02:37:44):
You already know the record books and let him cook.
Speaker 6 (02:37:47):

You said you're gonna come in hot and you're gonna
roast me on something.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
What a couple of things? I'm coming in hot about one. Yes,
you're not even ready for college football season. I've noticed
you don't even care.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Right, are there any games?
Speaker 5 (00:51):
Do?
Speaker 4 (00:51):
You haven't even No, you're not prepared. I mean our predictions.

Speaker 6 (01:14):
Okay, Well, obviously we're gonna have our preview for college
football tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Oh we are. I was gonna tease that at nine
o'clock hour. But that's fine, Sure you were. I was.
I feel like you've wilted under pressure?
Speaker 4 (01:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Have you wilted?
Speaker 5 (01:26):
You?
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Did you shrink under pressure? Under college football pressure? No?
I'm not Florida State?
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Whoa is that their fault? They wanted defeated? Yeah, so
Georgia came, came a knocking, just stomp their ass out.
You know you will approve a little point. I just
wanted to let you know that I felt your commitment
to college football was negligent. I just I just don't
(01:54):
feel like you're ready to go to a new level.
I mean, if you don't want to talk bowling green,
then you can kiss my eye.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
There you go. Let's see who do we got this week?
Did Judge go deep twice? Last night? He did? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (02:04):
All rise?
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Yeah, forty seven bombs so far. He's pretty good. He's
all right.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
He should get every vote for the MVP on every
one of them, all of them, every vote. Are you
sure every single vote goes to him?
Speaker 1 (02:16):
In America?
Speaker 4 (02:16):
About American League? Every vote, every vote. Let me tell
you another thing. I know you're gonna get teasing these astros.
Who the Red Sox, I know your teeth? WHOA thank
you tripley the Red Sox. Yes, I'm gonna tell you
(02:36):
something right now. You know who's going to play first base?
Down stretch?
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Are you really about to do this? Alex Bregman.
Speaker 6 (02:45):
He's got gremlins in his elbow, is what he said
yesterday to the media.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
So if you don't put him at first, you're losing
some production there. I'm talking about offensively.
Speaker 5 (02:55):
Hm.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
You also free up the two catchers not to have
to do you know where you don't lose If you
want a dhin er you can with Kartini.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Watch, I'm gonna go. I'm going out on a limb.
Let's see. I asked Dana.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Brown yesterday about I said, is there a chance who
will play third base? If Alex Revan can't play third base?
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Rest here? It doesn't sound like to me.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
If he's got gremlins in his elbow, there's gonna be
a whole lot of third base played right now throwing
it I thought he just slept on it wrong. When
you said that to me, did I smirk at you?
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (03:29):
You don't miss game after game after game, sleeping on
your shoulder or elbow in this case.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Wrong.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
You know what they do. They pee in our face
and they call it rain. Right if you so all
of a sudden in the middle of the night. Now,
maybe if he's on one of those old school water
beds that threw you around and threw him off the
bed and hit his elbow on the nightstand. But other
than that, come on, dude, you weren't buying that no day.
You weren't buying that Arizona waterfront property, were you?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
No?
Speaker 4 (03:54):
Okay, good, because neither was I and neither were they.
Alex Bregman first Bay.
Speaker 6 (04:02):
Well that'll that'll take care of your your first base issue.
Who plays third? Dubon or yeah, goes back?
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Do you trust more Dubon at third or any other
guy unlessens Victor Kartini? You put or ds but he
only played what once over there? You do bond? Correct?
People want him to let you stick? What if I
told you that that Alex Bregman, don't be shocked if
he got ground balls at first base and started playing there?
Speaker 6 (04:33):
What would you say? I wouldn't be surprised. This whole
thing about his gremlins in his elbow. Uh, it's just
I had heard some things a couple of days ago
about it's called I get bone fragments in the elbow
is what the cause was? Well, those can be gremlins.
(04:53):
Those are those are the gremlins that I was talking about.
So there's no structural damage, but there's gremlins in the elbow.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Tripley.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
Do we have a sounds like it's gotta be sounds
like a song? Yeah, the country person come out and
sing gremlins in the make a song about bread and
called gremlins and the elbow.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
Yeah, Luke bryanle adding, Uh, I don't he'll adding some
beer to it. Yeah, I'm pretty sure we got uh
what we got here? Let me come next to you
real quick.

Why are you cozy?
Speaker 7 (05:22):
Why?
Speaker 1 (05:22):
What are you? What are you doing over here?
Speaker 6 (05:25):

afraid you might see both of you.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Yeah, I'm a little nervous.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
You might try to reach over a cop cop a
feel you ever made love on a waterbed?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I actually have same. I didn't make love. I banged.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Okay, do you tell you you said I have to
have kids?
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Making loves overrated, isn't it? And was making love overrated? Well,
depends on who the the first we're gonna say you
would drop the B word.
Speaker 4 (05:56):
It was you were gonna go at six in the morning,
you don't make love and then call her a bee?

You can't. Do you think there's any Do you think
there's anybody out there listening?
Speaker 4 (06:30):
You know how they have their nicknames snuggle buddies. They
call them snookems. What do you think I guarantee you?
No guarantee. No, you said I love you? Hell no,
don't don't leave me snooke thems. No, I love you,
absolutely not. I kicked my own ass fiver called a
chick snoop. How about you saying, well, it depends on
(06:51):
who the bee is.
Speaker 9 (06:52):
You were gonna drop the B word if a girl
ever called me snuo ems, stinker, love bug, love bug
boo bunny, Uh bunny, honey bun.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Honey bunch? No, No, what if she called you?
Speaker 6 (07:07):
Had I had a girl, A girl I dated back
in like two thousand and nine, used to call me
honey bun, honey bunny, and I wanted to shoot myself.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Is she still alive? She is? Mother. You didn't have
anybody take her out, did you? Honeybun? Did you ever
say it? Gets?
Speaker 4 (07:28):
It makes my skin crawl when you call me honeybun. Yeah,
she still did it. Apparently she wanted out of the relationship.
So does she call her husband honeybun? Now?
Speaker 6 (07:39):
Uh, not sure on her marital status. I just maybe
you guys were tired or something. No, we're not friends,
and you said, hey, do you guys call me honey?
Does she call you honeybun? Or she got a different
one for you, honey bunch. I hope she doesn't call
her husband honeybun. Honeybun.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yeah. I don't know, man, but snook them sounds like
it could really pull. No.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
No, yeah, we should do a segment like maybe to
borrow something on worst nicknames for your lover or for
your significant other. Please, I'm talking about the even not
like if Salzi, you know, like yeah or Lima, Yeah,
I'm talking about that they give you the love like
like snuggle bunny or peaches, you know what I'm saying,
(08:22):
or you know, just like I mean they did, like hey,
I love bug. Yeah you know what I'm saying. Yeah,
I know I do. There's got to be there's I
guarantee people are driving down the street right now or
sitting home saying, oh my gosh, going, buddy, he might
have the worst one for his wife.
Speaker 6 (08:37):
Yeah, husband, Probably a dude that's driving down the road
right now that's been married for like thirty years and
he's thinking back to his high school girlfriend that he
used to call him pumpkin.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
Yeah yeah, damn Yeah, he's like damn now she just
calls him prick.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Yeah, he's sworn off.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
But just don't you think there's people out there though,
who okay, who gives the worst one? Do you think
women call their husbands or significant other a worse nickname
than the guy calls his wife. How many guys are
gonna admit the macho guy come on here, I call
her snook them.
Speaker 6 (09:07):
I would think that I would think this is what
I think. I think a woman wants their husband or
boyfriend to call them like a pet name.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Yeah, a little special nickname just just for them.
Speaker 6 (09:21):
Yes, and then but they give free rein to the guy,
and then the guy creates some kind of off the
wall like snook Eem's and he and then but then
she gets called that once and she's like, oh my god,
I love it, And so he just runs.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
With it that especially for me.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Yes, little did you know he called all his zoids
in college snookums too.
Speaker 1 (09:41):

youngest one out of us three? Do you have you

Speaker 1 (17:59):

Speaker 6 (18:01):
That must have been a conversation prior to tripley and
I become a part of this regime.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
What's that conversation about? You probably forgot it? No, no,
we never did. You weren't a snuggle bunny. No, good

(18:27):
about it. I'll give him a ten for his Yeah, exactly.
And I like how I try to sneak it away
sometimes some of the time. Good stuff. Bright Let's brother.
Speaker 6 (18:39):
Let's let's hear from Alex Bregman. You mean your future
for you mean you're really going to push that.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
I'm going to tell you right now you should consider
Alex Bregman at first base. I'm just telling you this year,
if he can't play third base and throw, get his
glove and his bat in the lineup.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
It's going to give you more versatility. Let's hear from
Alex Bregman talking about his elbow injury.
Speaker 13 (18:57):
Let's see, Uh, I feel like the rest of the
is going to be kind of just a fluid situation.
Take it day by day and see how it feels
every single day, and kind of make a decision as
it goes. Three Today, for the first time, armfelt good.
Didn't feel any pain or discomfort or anything. But yeah,
(19:20):
it's just gonna be one of those things. Take day
by day and kind of see how it feels the
rest of the year going forward.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Okay, guess what that means. Minimal third base.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
You have to have his bat in the lineup, and
if you want his glove in the lineup without him
having to throw regularly unless it's a relay home and
in truth is maybe you'd have somebody else grab that
relay on a throw from right field. Now you know
what I'm saying. Line it up a little different, maybe, yeah,
to protect that. Listen, if you can play third base
with the glove, you can play first base.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Yeah, this well, we we can revisit.
Speaker 4 (19:59):
Rolling over and bet and getting gremlins in your elbow.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, that's only in the movies.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
But whatever it is, whether it's something floating in there
or whatever it is, how do we find a way.
You saw him at the plate, Homer yesterday. You see
him at the plate. You want his glove in the
lineup and want versatility, and also to free up d
h for Jordan without losing Bregman and anybody or Diaz
when when Jordan's in left field or that and you're
(20:28):
not getting nine hundred ops from the first base, you
may get it from this guy. Why not get you
give me a legitimate reason why we can't put Alex
Bregman at first base, platoon at third base, whatever that would,
Doubond and Whitcomb, whoever you decide you.
Speaker 6 (20:45):
Want there, you're gonna have to sure regardless. That's from
what we just heard.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
That's right. So if you got to.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
Do that regardless, unless you plan on playing the big
fellow in left field every day, every every frigging day,
then Bregg needs to play first base.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Not that we don't respect Singleton or anything I do,
but your lineup. Alls you do is you strengthen a
lineup at the plate with Bregman at first base. If
he can't play and he at first base, now you
free up the d As if you want a different
left field, or if you want Keratini in the lineup
catcher or or or DH, and you give Jordaan. You're
(21:23):
telling me if if Bregman's only going to DH, we
know he can swing the bat. If he's only going
to DH, then you have forced Jordan Alvarez to be
in left field. You I don't actually think that there's
much choice. Now, you'll DH Bregman want that. I get
that once in a while when you want to put
d As at first base possibly or d H him
(21:43):
or even rest him and Keratini you want him to
play first base, and you want Bregman DH and you
want Jordan and left field depend on matchups whatever I
can tell you, though, if you don't want to waste it,
and you don't want to you want to maximize what
you have with these injuries. Bregman has to play first base, yeah,
(22:03):
because are you gonna play him every other day in
the lineup so you can get where you're going?
Speaker 6 (22:06):
You got to have him in the lineup every day.
If he can swing it, He's got to be in
the lineup, and.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
It's impossible to have him in the lineup every day, DH,
unless you're convinced you wanted you want to spend the
next thirty five or so games plus the playoffs with
you on play left. Not that he can't play left
field right, but if that was the case, they'd have
done it for one hundred and thirty games.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
They would have already done it.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
Yeah, right, I think, well, let's let's continue this discussion
because we got to look at there's some there's some
pieces that need to be moved around for this to work.
And with you have that money there in the minimal right,
meaning you have to have Bregman in the lineup every
day like what happens with Kartini, because Joe spotted just
a couple of days ago said he wanted to move
Kartini over to first base to get him more at bats.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
Well at the times when Karattini plays first base DH
Bregman that means and put on field right. But he
cannot be the exclusive DH. He's it didn't sound like
he's playing third base right ill.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Thing.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
And the risk is if you do it once in
a while and all of a sudden he heard it's
a worse Do you lose him at the play?
Speaker 5 (23:02):
Ye?
Speaker 4 (23:03):
So to me, and that's why I asked Dana Brown yesterday.
We'll talk about it, is Brian, and I said, but
ask him, what if there is no Bregman at third base?
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Then what And I don't think.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
He's I don't think he wanted to the reality of
that's possible if this continues to happen, Well, here we are.
And so if you want Bregman lineup every day, he
has to play first base or you lose jord On
as the DH. He's gonna be in left field all
the time. If you love that, great, But if you
plan on playing yord On at d H and want
Bregman lineup every day and it ain't gonna be a
third you have to have him at first base. And
(23:36):
I'll actually be surprised if you don't.
Speaker 6 (23:39):
Let's so let's continue this discussion about Alex Bregman and
the lineup next on Sports Talk seven to.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
Eighty, The Sewn Salisbury Show continued.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
Joey Varna retired by the way, yes, and he retired
and asked where he's headed right to the broadcast booth.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
You think oh yeah, if he.
Speaker 4 (23:59):
If he wants to, if he wants to, he will
because he's got great sense of humor. He does former
MVP in the National League. You know, he's played a
long time. He'd be a great ad. I fully expect
that to happen if he wants to do it. I imagine
they'll stand in line for him. But he loved he said.
An uber driver asked him if he does a ballplayers
(24:20):
that yeah.
Speaker 6 (24:21):
He said, are you a yeah? Are you a player?
As he's driving to the ballpark and he said, no,
that's crazy. Hall of not Hall of Fame, but Hall
of very good Yeah, hall of really really good. Yeah,
and great teammate. He has a crazy stat about his career.
It's something like he's only had like twenty five popouts
in his career or something crazy like that.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
Pretty special, man. He's had a really good run seventeen seasons,
I believe, in the majors in seventeen impressive. So what
is that crazy status on him? I don't know, Snuggle bunny,
stop it.
Speaker 6 (24:56):
It's something like at one point he had like under
thirty times flying out or something, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Pretty impressing.
Speaker 6 (25:06):
Yeah, he's got some kind of crazy crazy stat Uh
Tripley found the audio where Alex Bregman talks about what's
going on actually in the elbow, and this is Bregman
talking about it.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
There's swelling.
Speaker 13 (25:18):
Obviously, there's no nothing structurally wrong with the EUCL, but
some little gremlins in there causing some swelling that I'm
just gonna have to try and mitigate through the rest
of the year and keep the swelling out.
Speaker 6 (25:32):
Okay, there's some gremlins in there causing some swelling. They're
gonna have to mitigate it through the year. So all right,
let's take a look at this, Like, let's just look
last night or yesterday afternoon.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
At Tommy John. Is that what you're saying, God, I
hope not.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
He had an elbow injury in twenty nineteen as well
that he had some minor surgery on afterwards.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
So I'm hoping something floating around you can scrape out
when the season's over. Yeah, that's a bone fragment. That's
definitely a bone fragment, let's hope. So it's not that serious.
Speaker 6 (25:59):
So this was the line up last night and again
they were playing at Mini May Park right or yes
after you no excuse me, said it again, Bregman DHD,
Jordon was in left, Jiner at first, and Kartini at
or behind the plate, Jake Myers in center. Al two
A was out, so Dubon was at second base, Shay
Whitcam at third base. So just looking ahead, let's just say,
(26:19):
so you're going into ballpark Baltimore. It's a bigger ballpark.
If you want Jordon in left field, okay, that's fine,
put Jake Myers in center, or no, let's take it back.
If Jordon is your DH because of a bigger ballpark,
and you want to give the big fellow maybe a
little bit of rest on his knees, where does Bregman play?
Speaker 4 (26:38):
Then you play Dubon or Witcamb at third base, and
you start Bregman at first base.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Okay, So then then you would have and.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
You have whoever you want to catch her, and you
have the ability that Keratini does what he's done, comes
off the bench, fills in when you need him to,
and you got a great bat. You have a guy
that if all of a sudden you need relief for
das behind to play it and vice versa. And in
the days you want a d H. And if you
want to. Here, here's another reason. If you want a
d H Daz but you still want to play Jordon
(27:11):
and you don't want Bregman's bad out of the lineup,
there's only one way to do it, since he's not
going to play third base right now? Is Jordon on left,
das Dhing and Bregman at first. When you want a
d H Bregman, that means Jordon's in left, Victor Kartini
goes to first base, yep, and and Yer Diaz is
your catcher. Yeah, that's that. They're That's that. That's the one.
(27:33):
If you're going to do it and want to do
it and milk it. Now, are you Are you secure
enough to keep both guys on a daily basis and
Daz and Carotini in the lineup at the same time
with no third catcher?
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Right?
Speaker 6 (27:45):
This is how it's going to have to be, though,
and you never know they might come in coming into September,
which is a couple of days a catcher you might
bring up, saysar South. That's what I'm saying, add a
third guy to the rocket, which it expands the roster.
It also gives you more bandwidth. So this is how
what's going to have to be regardless of if you put
Bregman somewhere at first or DH. Jordon's gonna have to
play a lot of left field going through the rest
(28:06):
of the season because that's gonna get Karatiny and Jiner
in the lineup. Joe spotted just a couple of days ago,
talked about trying to get Krotiny more at back.
Speaker 4 (28:16):
If you want the best lineup, the best lineup, now,
listen whatever you say. Now, if you want Dubon in centerfield,
let's just say they're gonna stick with Jake Myers. Your
best lineup is going to be Dubond Slash whitcome at.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Third or just endSo a third, whatever whoever you.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
Decide a third. Your catcher is going to be one
of the two. And the guy who's not catching the
guy who's not catching. If you really want your best lineup,
the guy who's not catching is the first baseman. Bregman's
the DH, Jordon's in left field. If you want all
the bats, if you want Bregman in the lineup every
(28:52):
day and Jordon in the lineup every day. Since Bregman's
not playing third, I said this to the top, I'm
gonna tell you again on left Bregman has to play
first base. He has to if you want Keratinian Das
to be a part. I mean, we know DS is
going to be if you still want that bad But
if you want Bregman in the lineup every day and
(29:15):
Ordon in the lineup every day, then let's just say
Ordon and Bregman every day and Bregman's not playing third base,
so you have the choice. You can't DH Jordon. If
you want Bregman in the lineup every day, dhing do
you make do?
Speaker 1 (29:30):
That makes sense? So the best way to do it
is put Bregman at first base.
Speaker 4 (29:35):
Jordon can DH, and you can on those days and
Ordon's dhing, Bregman's at first the Keratini DS thing behind
the plate, and then you go get your little whoever's
playing left field that day?
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Is it Debon? Is it?
Speaker 4 (29:46):
I don't care who it is, Trey Cabbage, whoever you
got out there in left field, even if you believe
McCormick's the guy when Bregman. If you want Bregman and
Jordon in the lineup every day, along with the ability
to have and with the catcher position in the first base,
what do you lose dhing das other than the if
(30:07):
you get a third count on what the rosters expand too.
But if you want Kerateny and Diaz, then Bregman's got
to play first base. Who do you trust the glove
at first base? More Diaz or Bregman?
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Uh? Bregman?
Speaker 4 (30:17):
Sure you do? You want their bats in the lineup.
This is if you want the bats in the lineup.
Bregman at first base gives you that opportunity and doesn't
relegate only yord On playing left field. If Bregman's at
first base, I have the flexibility to put yord On
at DHY. I don't run him out there thirty five
to forty five games counting the playoffs in left field
(30:38):
because I believe if they wanted to do that, he'd
been the all time left fielder.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
They don't want to do that.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
So if you want to him in at the DH
and Bregman can't play third base, where else you putting him?
I can't leave his bat on the sidelines for a
three game series. No, you can't, especially now.
Speaker 6 (30:53):
And with Tucker still out, can't afford to have Bregman
out of the lineup.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
Bregmanu at first base, the DS Keratini thing, d Karatini thing,
DH wise two and ord on a left field first
base if I want, if I want those guys in
the lineup all at the same time, it's simple. Krotenis
at first, Diaz's catcher, Jordon's in left field, and Bregman
is the DH. But if I need to move it
around and need a first basement, so I don't want
(31:19):
Jordan to play left field, you have to and I
have to have Bregman's bat. He's the first baseman. He
is the first baseman. What what's the issue with that?
Speaker 5 (31:31):
Show?
Speaker 4 (31:31):
Tell me the negative with Bregman playing first base? There
is other than you don't have him full time at
third base. He's not gonna playing third base anyways, that's
my point. But you want him in the lineup, can't
get him in the lineup. How do you get yord
on him? Daz with the flexibility with the two catchers
to get him in either in the lineup every day
or have him sitting over there. If we don't expand
with the third catcher, he has to play first base.
(31:52):
If you want Jordan in left field full time, then
he doesn't. But if you want yourd on to DH
most of the time and in left field once in
a while. Alex Bregman's your new first baseman the rest
of the season. If he can't throw it, if if
he's not gonna play third, Yeah, simple, you gotta have
him in the lineup. That's like, there's no other way
around it if you if you want him in the
(32:13):
lineup and you're not willing to put him at first
base and that magical glove, Jordon's in left field for
the next thirty plus games and in the playoffs and
World Series if they get there.
Speaker 5 (32:23):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Yeah, who do you trust more in the lineup?
Speaker 6 (32:27):
Does Zenzo at first base, Shay Whitcomb at third or
Dubon and Jord on a left field and then Alex
Bregman is your dage the truth and not have Kartini
in there.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
If you had to do it every day, if you
wanted to play Jordan on the left field every day,
it's Jordan on a left field, Karatini at first base,
Diaz catching or vice versa, and Alex Bregman is your DH.
But I don't think they want to play Jordan on
a left field every day, so that limits you. If
you know if you get a DH Jordon, you can't
Where are you playing Bregman? Yeah, if he's not your
first baseman, we know he could swing to Batty Homeward, right, yeah,
(33:00):
first game back, it's four games. I'm just telling you
now that if they don't play Alex Bregman at first base,
they're not looking at all the They're not looking at
all the opportunity.
Speaker 6 (33:09):
I don't see how you don't play him there. It's
it's too logical. It's either it's that or you lose
his bat.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
In the lineup. That's exactly what do you want to do.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
Or he's got to play through it at third base
either way ask but from everything we've heard from the audio, that.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
Could lead to far more problems.
Speaker 4 (33:26):
Right, So what's more, what are you more worried about
Bregman being out of the lineup and not swinging the
bat every day or Bregman, Oh he's over at first base?
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Will it be the same?
Speaker 4 (33:35):
I trust that Bregman's glove is good enough to put
a bigger mid on and play first base than I
do that the Astros are more explosive without him in
the line You can't afford him not in the lineup.
With the fact that Tucker ain't going to be here
before Labor Day, you can't take that bat in the lineup.
That bat needs to go to first base. Jordon needs
the DH and play left field. Once in a while,
you move him to left field. When you want Kroteni
(33:56):
and Diaz in the lineup and Bregman at the same time,
then you go him and left field Diaz or Krotina
behind the play it Dazer Kartini as the first baseman.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Bregman is your DH.
Speaker 4 (34:08):
When you want to change things up your normal lineup,
one of those two at catcher, one of those two
dhing Or at first base, jord On at dh R
and left field, and Bregman at DHR at first base.
When Bregman is not dhing and you need his bat
and you're gonna need it, he has to play first base.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
He has to, Yeah, because you're gonna lose one of
those bat. That's exactly right. Gotta figure it out.
Speaker 4 (34:31):
And I got news for you come postseason. If it's
nut cutting time and I got games to win, I
may not playing at third base. That guy ain't standing,
He's not sitting on a betch no, no, and how
do I play him? Jordan on your DH and today
Bregman grab the big glove. You're playing first base?
Speaker 6 (34:45):
Figure it out. YEP, seven three, seven ninety is the
number to join. We'll get to your calls next. Continue
to talk about the Houston Astros. Justin Erlander made the
return to the mound last night. How did he perform?
We'll talk about it next in Sports Talk SEVN Highty.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
The Sewan Salisbury Show on Sports Talk seven ninety Yours
your rockets your.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Voice, Chris, good morning, Hey, good morning. How are y'all
doing today? We're good, buddy.
Speaker 5 (35:15):
What's so?
Speaker 1 (35:16):
I just wanted to run something by?
Speaker 8 (35:18):
Last year Diaz played a little bit of left field.
Speaker 14 (35:21):
What would be wrong with putting him at left field,
Bregman at first, Alvarez a DH and Krotenia catcher.
Speaker 12 (35:28):
I'm gonna hang up and listen to y'all stops.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
Thank you, Chris.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
There'd be no problem with that if they trust his
glove and left field. I don't remember seeing him much
in left field. Maybe I might have missed it, but
if I'm assuming Chris is right, I don't think that.
I don't think they want to not saying that he's
not a good defender. But I think you now have
probably put your team even though Bregman hell, I think
he'd probably be a Gold Glover at first base if
he played over there full time. But I uh, I'm
(35:52):
not sure. I mean, that's a that's a wide variety
when you have DS catching DS, d H and DS
playing left field, DS playing first base. Right, to me,
it's reserved for if you want once a while first base,
but catcher and DH for Daz. I don't think I'm
gonna put him glove wise too many important plays now.
He may be a hell of a left fielder. I
don't know how he did if he played it last year,
(36:14):
or how many times he's played left field in his career.
I think that's a far riskier proposition than Bregman at
first base.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
Yet Chris is right.
Speaker 4 (36:25):
I mean he put Bregman at first base like I did,
so I by fully believe, and I told you at
the top of the show that that Alex Pregnant you
have to put him at first base if he can't.
Speaker 6 (36:33):
Play third has never played left field last year.
Speaker 1 (36:37):
Okay, well, then that's according to his.
Speaker 6 (36:39):
Baseball Reference page, which is basically the Gospel one.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
Even if he did, there's been ample there's been ample
times to put him out there this year and they haven't. Right,
he was catcher DH first base last year and he's
played first base? What one time this year or two times?
How many times he been over first? Not very much?
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Right this year? Yeah? Three? Three times? Okay? So uh yeah,
the majority of him is going to behind a plate
in dhing.
Speaker 6 (37:04):
Last year he caught uh here here he started forty
two games behind the plate, thirty six as a d
H and seven at first base last year. Last year,
he's never played left field in his career at the
big league level.
Speaker 4 (37:16):
Well, give me gimme Bregman at first base, Diaz behind
the plate. That's how he solved that. Yeah, and then
you deal with the Keratini. And if you want Jordan
in left field, then you can move Bregman to d
H and put Victor or d As at first base.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Still uh yeah, I'll see. Yeah, no no left field.
Speaker 4 (37:35):
Because you can tray, you can chae if you had
to move a guy around, you can take a first
baseman and stick him at catcher. It's the DH thing
that you lose if one right, So you're okay there right,
and that if Jordan's dh and you're protected there, and
if for Bregmant's dahing. But the move of overall, regardless
how you move the chess pieces, the overall move is simple.
If Bregman's not going to play third base this year,
(37:56):
he can swing the back. You need his bat in
the lineup, which is obvious, yes, And you don't want
Jordan to play full time left field, and you need
his bat in the lineup, and Bregman's every day. Bregman
has to play first base. He absolutely has to, and
I'm going to ride that until they do. I'm telling
you he needs to play first base.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
Seven one, three, two, two, five seven ninety Tom, welcome in,
Thanks guys.
Speaker 15 (38:24):
Yeah, this is the dog day the summer We've been
hearing about all the time in baseball. You know, the
only thing that's going right right now this week for
the Astros is that the Mariners can't win a ball game,
and we got that on our side. I kind of
want to look at this as a half bull, but
the next eleven games, with thirty fifth left to play,
(38:46):
this is going to be pivotal. This is playoff baseball.
They're looking at every one of the teams they're going
again in the next eleven are teams that are trying
to punch their tickets to the World Series and the
NL and AL Championships. The most danger team that we're
gonna play, I think is gonna be the Royals. They're
fighting their lives for the game to the wildcall, and
(39:08):
I think over the next eleven days, if we can
god win, five of these teams go five and six split,
so four games with each team, they'll be getting away.
Speaker 5 (39:21):
With murder.
Speaker 15 (39:22):
Because I agree with you, they're gonna have to put
all hands on Jack. If you've got to put Bregman
at first, you put him there, but he needs to
be in the lineup. I don't know what else I
have to say. I'm still gonna look at this team
as a team that's gonna do it. I say a
couple of weeks ago, I'm still meeting I think this
is going to be their finest moment. Thanks for letting
(39:43):
me and guys, I'll just listen to what they have
to say to thank you.
Speaker 4 (39:48):
I don't know what the remedy is if Bregmant's not
at first base, if you don't want to play your
on the leftield every time Bregman has to be at
first base unless you decide you only want to play
him once every five days. Can't do that, right, They're
not good enough. I mean they're good, don't misunderstand me,
But I don't know many teams would be good enough.
I mean, they've overcome a lot this year, but now
you're telling me a limited Bregman are out of the lineup,
and no Kyle Tucker for another damn near three weeks
(40:11):
or so sometime in this September. And we got to
hope that when he comes out, he comes out hot.
It's not like he's got thirty games when he comes
back thirty games. Oh, I got thirty games? Leof to
get myself red. No, hell, he's gonna have a handful
of games or whatever it is when he gets back.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
What are we in the thirties.
Speaker 4 (40:28):
Let's say he misses fifteen more games, which is about
what they're playing every day near. So if you missed
fifteen more games, we are inside the twenty that we're
inside thirty six games left, So you miss fifteen, we're
down to twenty. Yeah, if you're doing I mean, you
start to feel your way it's like coming out of spring,
but you're trying to feel your way through it. And
then you got to find out how ginger your leg is.
(40:49):
Can you put your foot in the ground, turn on
and do all the things he does? So you can't
afford to lose Bregman and Tucker's back. I'm going to
tell you right now there is no way on God's
green earth they're not having the common conversation about Alex
Bregman at first base.
Speaker 1 (41:01):
They have to have to.
Speaker 4 (41:02):
I know you looked at me a little side eyed
when I said put Bregman at first base?
Speaker 1 (41:06):
Do you want his bat in the lineup? Yeah? And Jordon?
Speaker 4 (41:09):
And you don't want Jordon playing left field day every
single game from here on out. What's the option Bregman
sits when Ord on dh is that's most of the time.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
Yeah, no, you're not doing that.
Speaker 4 (41:21):
Bregman at first the two catchers behind the plate and
Dhing at first movement. And if Bregman's not playing first base,
guess what he's doing Dhing and Jordon's in left field. Yeah,
which is a once in a while thing. Your normal
lineup is one of the two cats behind home plate.
Whoever you got left field, your third base, Dubon Widgham,
whoever you think is going to be. You may platoon
(41:42):
first base, Bregman, DH Jordan left field, whoever behind the plate,
dz Keratini. And when you want a DH Bregman, Jordon's
in left field, and one of the catchers is at
first base.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
One of the catchers is playing catcher. And if you
want to change up.
Speaker 4 (41:57):
You got a fastball pitcher that you think Singleton and
Rake put him at first base. Bregman's got to be
your regular first baseman going down the stretch because you
got glove that he can play with and his bat
has to be in the lineup. Yeah, can't take it
out of it.
Speaker 6 (42:09):
And you don't want your on playing left field every day.
Right it's getting the seven o'clock hour. Justin Berlin a
return to the mound last night? How did he feel
about his outing? That's next on Sports Talk seven.

is the number to join Clay. Good morning, Good morning.
Speaker 10 (44:52):
I'm hoping you guys are going to tell me that
I'm wrong about this that I was listening to the
game last night and I think it was the eighth
inning or one of the In the latter part of
the game, Houston had two men on nobody out and uh,
the week come, I think we do to come up,
(45:14):
and Joe a spot up apparently thought it was necessary
to pull him and call in John Singleton. They said, well,
they don't want to call in Al two by because
it's his day out, And I thought, you know, and
I turned it off at that point because I thought,
this is not a team that really wants to win.
(45:37):
It's a culture of well I'm trying of turned and
oh I've got a gremlin in my arm and I
don't really want to apply myself. Well that's okay, go
sit down. I'll find somebody else to take your place.
Speaker 1 (45:50):
So play?
Speaker 6 (45:51):
Are you are you are? Are you saying that the
Astros don't have a good work ethic.
Speaker 10 (45:56):
No, I don't think they do, because they find every
excuse not to have to play. Oh it's my day off,
I've got are Do you want to play?
Speaker 1 (46:05):
Clay?
Speaker 6 (46:06):
Do you honestly think that Jose Altuve told Joe a
spot of Hey, don't hit me here, come on, man.
Speaker 10 (46:13):
No, I think Joe Aspota wants to be friends with
him so much. But it's like, well, hey, you know
you deserve a day off, so take a break.
Speaker 4 (46:23):
Let me ask you something, clay in truth, let's look
at this with the now get your thought process kind
of But I but I the work ethic is not
how I say it. If you want to question decisions
of why al Tuovy didn't pinch it because it was
his day off and want it bat they didn't want
to do that that they put more trust in Singleton
and left handed sides, but all those if you want
(46:44):
to trick question, you can question whatever the hell you want.
But if you will, and you know we I think
he's called in your plenty of times. Play's a regular
in here. We love having your opinion. But what does
work ethic have to do with a guy getting a
day off. We heard that Alex Bregman when he was
going through this his elbow even before yesterday, before he
(47:04):
DHD was chomping at the bit to want to play.
Speaker 1 (47:08):
But they did have to do.
Speaker 4 (47:10):
Most of these guys, from my knowledge, on their days off,
they want to play every day. But you know, the
manager in the stretch, run a day off here, in
the day off there. And here's another thing. At what point, Clay,
if you've got a guy on a roster singleton, you know,
with cabbage, At what point if you're a manager, do
(47:32):
you just if you shut them all down and the
only guys you're ever playing or trust or that are
eight starters in a pitcher or nine you know when
when when the DH and you know, on the hitting side,
nine guys or aren't you don't you have to at
some point trust that either the numbers or your gut
tells you, well, this is the right time to make
this decision, and then you live with the decision. But
(47:53):
I don't know what decision making has to do with
work ethic. I don't think al Tuve begged out of
the lineup, and Alex Redman has been pretty durable. I
mean at times this year he's played a lot of
baseball and he still played yesterday and he can't play
third base.
Speaker 1 (48:07):
Yeah, So what's what's the problem here?
Speaker 10 (48:10):
Well, I said at the beginning to be to tell
me if I'm wrong, and I admit I'm probably wrong
about it. But I guess what I was irritated about
was the fact that what was wrong with just batting Whitcomb.
Why did Whitcomb have to be pulled for John Singleton?
Really well anyway, but you know, and I said, tell
(48:34):
me I'm wrong, and so I am wrong. There's a
great work ethic at Yuston, so I'll stand correct.
Speaker 1 (48:42):
Yeah, well, and I think we can. We all have.
Speaker 4 (48:43):
And I think it's just semantics on how you worded it. Clay,
thank you for the call, and I love I get
what he's saying. We've all had that were the frustration,
like why isn't Altova hitting here? Why why is it
wickcamb in this situation. I'm sure something on the analytics.
Speaker 1 (48:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (48:58):
I've sent your thing with the best pitch I'm thinking
of of because we know that Singleton's a good fastball
hitter at least, So I'm just thinking of who came
that's exactly in there, and the end of why they
make the decision.
Speaker 1 (49:12):
Yes, so I don't think it.
Speaker 4 (49:13):
I think I could go the other way than what
he was saying and say, you know what, look how
hard they It would have been easy to fold your
tent ten games out. It would have been easy to
do that, and then you're like, Eh, you know what,
it's hot, we're injured. We have a built in excuse
this year. And you know what that built in excuse
would have been. You would have got a hall pass
the issue by saying, look at our pitching staff and Tucker,
(49:35):
we've been heard all year.
Speaker 1 (49:37):
That's right, what are we gonna do. Here's your hall
past year.
Speaker 4 (49:40):
But instead of calling it a hall past year checking
out and not working at it. We hear all the
time the grind. Dana Brown mentions the grind all the time.
So they have fought their way and worked their way
and performed their way back into first place. So Claire,
I get what you're saying. I just think he I
think he's frustrated with the decision to pinch John Singleton
instead of keep Whitcomb in the lineup or bring out
(50:00):
too they off and let him pinch it.
Speaker 1 (50:03):
That's not a work ethic thing. That's just a manager's.
Speaker 6 (50:05):
Decision, right. And you had Greg Weissert was on the
mountain for the Red Sox. He's a right handed thrower.
I'm gonna I'm assuming the guys that he was right
handed A part of it. That's you bring in a
lefty you had to Zenzo on the bench, you had uh,
I just I'm drawing a blank. You had Altuve, de Zenzo, Singleton,
and I'm assuming if if if Al is not playing
(50:27):
because it's a day off, whether you like the day
off or not, he's not gonna play, you roll with
John Singleton.
Speaker 4 (50:32):
I'm assuming that they uh looked at it and said,
he gets a fast play, you can drive left hand
or versus a right handed pitcher, let's go and you
make the decision.
Speaker 1 (50:44):
Live with it.
Speaker 6 (50:44):
And he also had Trade Cabbage on the bench who
eventually pinched it for Chas McCormick.
Speaker 1 (50:49):
So as a left hander, he went in there and
hit left.
Speaker 6 (50:53):
I think what we're gonna see down the stretch is
if Singleton is not in the lineup, he's the first
guy off the bench, and I'm okay in a pin
ship if Dubon is not in the lineup as.
Speaker 4 (51:02):
Well, if Dubon is playing utility and not starting, he is, yes,
depending on the matchup, but if if if he is
in the lineup, then Singleton becomes your number one guy
coming off the bench. Great, I want to put Bregman
at first base. I open with that, and I know
you smirked, like you you're gonna.
Speaker 8 (51:16):
Run with that.
Speaker 1 (51:17):
I just I thought you were. I thought you were.
I'm dead ass serious.
Speaker 6 (51:19):
Well you you know, you were trying to trying to
cap on me dog about college football, and then you're like, hey,
by the way, Alex Bregman should play first base. I
was like, wait, what no cap though, no cap no
cat non no cap dog, Good morning. Tripley's gonna play first.
Speaker 1 (51:39):
He's been competing all though. Okay, I'm just making sure, man.
Speaker 4 (51:41):
Yeah, just check on all my peeps here, No problem,
sugar breches.
Speaker 1 (51:45):

into the triple E mode to start calling you triple e.
Speaker 1 (52:03):
Yeah, you're good? Are we? The only people? Were the
only people?
Speaker 3 (52:10):
You know?
Speaker 4 (52:11):
Maybe like you're feeling you're you're feeling good about it.
You guys are in a conversation and she says, man, Tripley,
I'm in love with you. What are you gonna do?

This Sean Salisbury Show continues on Sports Talk seven ninety
ninety Home for your Home Teams.
Speaker 1 (54:52):
All right, Sean, what are you hearing.
Speaker 3 (54:54):
On there now? This Salsbury's takeout, Salsburief takeout on the
Sean Salbury Show.
Speaker 6 (55:06):
It's time of the stake out here on the Seawan
Salisbury Show seven five seven. I got a couple of
guys that have been holding for a while, Carl, thanks
for holding.
Speaker 1 (55:14):
Good morning.
Speaker 20 (55:16):
Hey, I think everything will be okay. We're just hot
and cold. Uh. Kind of concerned though, because our two
best hitters were in there. We had two men on,
then we had the bases loaded, couldn't get through there.
And I'm a big John Singleton fan, but I think
the dice might have been throwed in uh our two
(55:37):
bays favor, maybe because uh, I can see what that
other gentleman was saying, you know, just bringing out two.
They let him get a hit, that little fleek and
get on base, and he can do things. I mean,
he's a wonderful baseball player. But I think it's gonna
be okay. I'd rather see us down and out right
now than get hot again when when the games get narrow,
(55:59):
you know, we'll get kind of close to the end there.
And thank god for the Marior nurs losing every So
that's about it, and I'm pulling for the Astros.
Speaker 1 (56:09):
Thank you, Thank you, Carl.
Speaker 6 (56:11):
And let's get to Aggie Doug for Doug, welcome in
Astros yesterday, Oh for seven runners in the square and
says Doug.
Speaker 1 (56:18):
What's up?
Speaker 10 (56:20):
Hey?
Speaker 21 (56:20):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (56:21):
We were at the game yesterday, and I mean, obviously
JV coming back and pitching the way he did was
extremely exciting. And but man for people to call in
and say, and I know you recan't you recanted, but
even think that the Astros don't have a work ethic
after what they've done, after where they started. I mean, guys,
were we were sitting there mid June going, there's no
(56:43):
way we're even smiffing the playoffs at this point, and
here we are five games ahead. I know the lobs
and they were driving us all crazy out at the
game yesterday. We were all pissed off, but we looked
it up. We're literally right in the middle of the pack.
As far as left on base, the Dodgers, Phillies and
uh and the Yankees are the top three. Obviously they
(57:07):
score more runs than us. But but the fact that
those three guys have have even more frustrations than us,
it kind of gives me hope once we.
Speaker 12 (57:15):
Do get in the play.
Speaker 4 (57:15):
What it tells me is I'm getting a lot of
people on base because I'm pretty good just not coming
through it. That tells me you're getting You're putting a
lot of stress on pitching staffs by getting runners on base.
That really, if you want to look at it the
positive way, Doug, for sure.
Speaker 2 (57:29):
Yeah, and again and again it's positive for us is
that we did have seven guys that we got on base.
It just we just couldn't find that that clutch hit
to get us through. And yes, I would love for
we are all discussing, Yes, L two Bay should have
probably come up up at that point, But also John
Singleton had already had a home run in this series.
So I mean, I get Joe A. Spotta, and you
(57:49):
know what, I'm done questioning the guy. The dude has
performed miracles. As far as I'm concerned with, the Astros
this year and the fact that we're getting ready to
possibly go to the playoffs for the what eighth or
ninth straight year, is just it's just a testament that
that this team does have a wonderful worth work ethic
and not and not and not to ever be questioned.
Speaker 1 (58:13):
Amen to that, Thank you, Doug.
Speaker 4 (58:15):
I don't think. I don't think worth work ethic will
ever be in question. No an overall as an overall team,
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (58:22):
And and you know what, I think we have to
take a step back and remember that the Astros just
got done winning what.
Speaker 1 (58:31):
Ten of eleven.
Speaker 4 (58:33):
They're playing great baseball, sweepy series and taking care of
their business, and they lost two to a pretty good
team Red Sox.
Speaker 1 (58:40):
Are you know, they're a they're a.
Speaker 4 (58:42):
Good team, and no exactly exactly what their what their
goal is as well, and you got beat by a
team that plays pretty solid baseball. Yet and I do
understand the frustration of decisions, but I don't think work
ethic is in question. No, I don't think that'll ever
be in question. With the way that this team, you
(59:02):
can't do what they do and not work. They're seven
and three in their last ten, so good problem to have.
Speaker 6 (59:08):
They've been playing really good baseball, and look, it was
something similar that we saw yesterday that we've seen all
season long, struggling with runners in scoring position. Oh for
seven with runners in scoring position.
Speaker 4 (59:21):
I open up the show by telling you Alex Bregman
needs to play first base to keep him in the
lineup every day this year.
Speaker 1 (59:29):
Are you with me or against me on that? I'm
with you. Do you think it's gonna happen? I think we'll.
Speaker 6 (59:35):
See more Jordon in left field than we would see
Bregman at first base. But either way, whatever it takes
to get both of those bats and Kartini and yainr
Diez in the lineup, I'm with.
Speaker 4 (59:45):
I'm gonna say that, you're gonna say, I'm gonna just
throw it out there that I think. I don't think
it's a once every twenty games Bregman at first base.
If you got if you want Jordan in the DHRL,
bregmant hass and you bet you're gonna play Bregan. You
can't play it anywhere else. Yep, if he ain't d
h And because jord On is, where are you gonna
put him? You need the bat has to play first base.
(01:00:06):
I think you're gonna get more of a steady diet
of it than you think. That's just my suggestion, and
I think it. Uh, if it doesn't happen, I'm just
gonna be had a little bit head scratched.
Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
Did Bagwell play third.
Speaker 4 (01:00:16):
Base when he broke in, Jeff Bagwell like in the
Red Sox organization? Did he break in as a third basement?
Let me check that out, triple somebody called in and
said that too, right.
Speaker 1 (01:00:25):
Yes, his name was Dwayne, Dwayne?
Speaker 4 (01:00:26):
Did he not play third basement to first base? Was
he not a third basement at one point? Or am
I losing my I.
Speaker 6 (01:00:32):
Would have to do a little bit of digging, But
I can get that here actually pretty quick.
Speaker 1 (01:00:36):
I like when you dig dog, let's check it out?
Come on?
Speaker 5 (01:00:44):
What do you is it?
Speaker 1 (01:00:45):
What do they got scrubbing? What do they call it?
Speaker 6 (01:00:46):
When it's uh, internet's a little slow. So in his career,
I didn't even even in the mind when he just
at the big league level. He never played third base.
He played first base, he played right field, He played
d H and pinch.
Speaker 4 (01:01:00):
Did he ever play third base at any point in
time coming up? Or was that or where Dwayne and
I not on the same place.
Speaker 1 (01:01:06):
I can look up his minor league stats if you'd like.
Was he a third basement at any point in time,
let's check that out as well.
Speaker 4 (01:01:15):
And maybe not, but I believe if you can handle
third base glove, you can probably handle first base.
Speaker 1 (01:01:20):
Club in the minor leagues, he did play third base.
There you go, Alex Bregman needs to play first base
this year.
Speaker 6 (01:01:27):
Heat Man in the minor league's for the Boston Red Sox.
Speaker 4 (01:01:32):
Remember I told you, I said, I think when he
went went up with Boston that he was a third
baseman at times.
Speaker 1 (01:01:38):
I believe that that's where he started. So he did.
Speaker 6 (01:01:40):
He actually he started as a second baseman, second basement,
then they moved him to third, and then they moved
into first.
Speaker 1 (01:01:46):
Turned out pretty well for him.
Speaker 6 (01:01:47):
He played, Yeah, he played UH and he played the
highest level he played third base was double A. And
then when he got over to the UH what's it
called Houston As.
Speaker 1 (01:01:58):
They moved him officially to first base, and good decision.
Speaker 4 (01:02:01):
But if Bregman can't play third base this year, and
you want yourd onto DH, most of the time, Bregman
has to play first base, and I believe.
Speaker 6 (01:02:07):
It's going to happen because you have to have that
bad in the line, no question, it's get to break.
We'll continue to talk about the Houston Ashs next.

It's Gil, It's Gill, and then it's Robert and then
it's Holly. So all right, we're gonna start this one
off with a bang.
Speaker 1 (01:06:44):
I got you snuggle bunny. What's up, Gil?
Speaker 12 (01:06:46):
What's going on? This is a long time ago about
it in the eighties. But the girl that also used
to say, it's time I need to see the farman.
Speaker 1 (01:06:56):
Oh god, yeah, she needs What do you hold on?
Speaker 3 (01:07:01):
Gil?
Speaker 1 (01:07:02):
She used to call you the fireman. Always to call

Speaker 4 (01:07:07):
Okay, what's that your elbow? And y'all need to do
what rumping?
Speaker 8 (01:07:14):
You need to go? You got to urge, it's time

To say something. He's gonna get in trouble for Okay,
you want to see the fireman, okay, okay.

Oh you're talking about that really small little plastic one
that people keep on their desks just to you know, like.
Speaker 1 (01:07:41):
A little, uh, little little model that they built. Yeah,

Speaker 4 (01:07:45):
Probably used to have it in my room when I
was living with my parents. So mic just go get
yourself one of those microhos. No, no, go get in

I couldn't hold.
Speaker 8 (01:08:11):
Off to tomorrow.
Speaker 12 (01:08:12):
So that's my little take for today.
Speaker 1 (01:08:14):
Yeah, keyword little thanks, very little, appreciated. Thanks, Gil, have
a good one. Talk to Ollie. Three initials in his name,
three inches in his body. There you go.
Speaker 6 (01:08:26):
You have to call another fireman man extra hose on
that one.
Speaker 1 (01:08:30):
Holly, welcome in. Good luck. Following up that one.
Speaker 22 (01:08:33):
I mean, you guys are on fire, y'all might need Gill.
Speaker 6 (01:08:36):
No, we don't, do you do you have keep Gill's
hose away from any of us.
Speaker 1 (01:08:45):
I can assure you it doesn't reach. Uh yeah, I.
Speaker 10 (01:08:49):
Just wanted to say.
Speaker 22 (01:08:50):
I specifically remember back in the late eighties, the reason
that Jeff Backwell was moved to first base from third
base was they had a young and coming third base
one with an all that had already had third base
named kim Kim Benetti.
Speaker 20 (01:09:03):
So that was the whole.
Speaker 22 (01:09:04):
Point of moving Jeff bag on the first base. They
needed his bad they saw how good of a Batty was,
but Kimmy was at third and there was no ray
he was moving anywhere. And also on my second point.
Speaker 10 (01:09:15):
Was I'm just really a little bit frustrated.
Speaker 22 (01:09:17):
With how untransparent the Astros are with their injuries. I
know they've always been this way, but other teams aren't
like this, and I just don't understand why they're like this,
from you know, Javier having a krook in his neck
to having Tommy John or whether it's justin having a
krook in his neck. And he moved loses through two
or three months and don't get me started on the
bone bruise. I mean, why can't they just tell us
(01:09:40):
Joe's father said that he was going to be back
in a couple of days, you know, whenever bregnant was out,
and then here and now we're hearing about grimlins and
the elbow and trying to figure out a line of
way to put him in, which I agree with you
guys about the first base thing. But why why are
they like that?
Speaker 6 (01:09:56):
I don't know, Holly, thank you for the call. It's
just kind of been like this for a couple Sean.
I don't know why they're so tight lipped when it
comes to injuries. And you remembered that it was it
last year, and how many discomfort.
Speaker 4 (01:10:09):
Happens all the time. It's almost like you don't be
the one to tell us what the injuries. Let the
player or eventually it'll come out, but early on it's not.
It's not just here. This happens in every city. I'm
just telling you it does that the people pre time.
I'm telling you it happens in every city, some maybe
a little more often than others. But the protecting of
it and calling it, hey, little a little sore elbow
(01:10:31):
before then, they just don't do it. I'm just telling
you here because we live here. It feels heightened. But
and there's been so many injuries. Here's what I do know.
There's no way on God's green earth. Now he may
have gotten hurt from the time before, and in bed
he felt it worse. Alex Bregman did not blow out
his elbow in bed unless he's a freak show, okay,
(01:10:54):
And and and so so when they said that you've
got a side on it, I mean, listen, it's not
calling them at all liars. It's like, come on, guys,
come on. That's the ultimate urinate in your face until
your training. And when you say, I mean listen. We
had Kyle Tucker pegged for late August September a month ago,
and when we asked, oh, and it'll be displayed listen.
(01:11:15):
I get why they protect the player, whether it's through
the player doesn't want him to know whatever it is.
But there is a time, like Holly said that, it's
almost insulting to your intelligent time we say, yeah, man, hey,
out for the you're not going to play any third
base at Grimins. And I get what Bregnant talk about
that Grimlin didn't creep in in the middle of the night.
It may have crept in the middle night from something
(01:11:37):
that caused the sword.
Speaker 1 (01:11:38):
You know, was sitting there.
Speaker 4 (01:11:38):
All of a sudden you had it behind you and
you felt the sown and saw said, man, it's worse
than that. You know, we've seen that happen. But you
didn't roll over in bed. Most of the time where
I come from, it's corn bread and chicken. But most
of the time when you roll over, you slept wrong
on your shoulder.
Speaker 1 (01:11:53):
You come out with a little shoulder aggre, a neck kink.
Speaker 4 (01:11:55):
I don't rarely come out with that shoulder getting said
that elbow getting so locked all a sud grembling show
up the next day. So it's not just bregnance, it's
it's a lot Kyle Tucker. It may be a bone bruise,
but it's the most severe bone bruise you can ever
have in baseball. It may be the neck injury to Javier,
but there was something wrong with the elbow anyway. Obviously
he's getting there. So yes, that's why that forced through
(01:12:17):
the trees. I take about when they talk about injuries
that are like came out of nowhere, like, how did
that happen? I take about forty percent of it, the
initial diagnosis. I take roll my eyes, yeah it I
believe sixty pretty like, come on, man, I've been in
sports long enough to know that a hamstring doesn't keep
a guy out four years. Okay, so and and Holly's right,
(01:12:39):
it's frustrating, but it's not going to change. No, they're
never going to tell you before the player somebody else
tells you. They just kind of want to go about
their business and they don't want to answer the questions.
But when you keep saying it's just a bruise, you know,
we all do keep asking questions, right, and that's just
part and parcel to what goes on.
Speaker 6 (01:12:55):
Yeah, let's let's talk about jord On Alvarez. He has
been struggling to hit the long ball at home.
Speaker 1 (01:13:00):
What's going on? That's next? Let the celebration start or.
Speaker 3 (01:13:06):
Sean Salisbury on Sports Talk seven, Ny.
Speaker 1 (01:13:11):
Tyler, welcome in.
Speaker 5 (01:13:14):
Hey, addie.
Speaker 21 (01:13:15):
It's a great, great day to be alive, isn't it.
Speaker 6 (01:13:20):
It's a great day to be above dirt. Hey, another
day in paradise above dirt.
Speaker 1 (01:13:24):
Great day.
Speaker 4 (01:13:25):
Yeah, absolutely, keeping.
Speaker 21 (01:13:28):
On absolutely, Hey, I called it in last week, and
I felt like that, uh, you know, what I said
was misinterpreted. But I heard right before the break you
were talking about Jordan and had struggled at home. What
do y'all think is the read for this? I mean
maybe like it's the batter's eye or what man uh
(01:13:49):
for for? You know, home runs at leads extrabates hits.
Speaker 6 (01:13:55):
So Jordon Alvarez Tyler has not hit a home run
at Mini Ma Park since June tow second, that's literally
two months ago.
Speaker 21 (01:14:03):
Correct, correct? Yeah, yeah, no, I had to look it
up the other night, and I was I was surprised. Really.
You know. Luckily we're going up to Baltimore. He hits
pretty well in Baltimore, so hopefully you can get it
going there.
Speaker 4 (01:14:17):
But yeah, I agree. See I wish I mean Tyler,
I wish I knew why. I mean, isn't it It's
an odd thing? I mean, you say, well, is it
called luck of the draws? He just seeing the ball different?
Is the background different fro him? You'd think if he
didn't like the battle, that we would kind of get
a feel for that. I don't know, and I'll tell
(01:14:37):
you a part of it for me, And I know
it's been on the road as well. Maybe it takes
pressure off some people just relax more on the road.
This guy has been great at home throughout most of
his career. Are people maybe even at home because of
o'tucker and it's a you know, he can hit the
ball the other way. Ken Jordan pitching him different because
there's not more protection in the lineup for him, maybe
(01:14:58):
not seeing as many pitches in his building as he
does somewhere else. More confident by a home pitcher throwing
in his building than rolling here and saying, listen, if
I'm gonna get beat, it's not gonna be by him.
Speaker 1 (01:15:08):
He had a bat He's had a couple of bat
at bats the last couple of days.
Speaker 4 (01:15:11):
Yesterday he had a bad one where he'll watch this
the number two go by him and then missed on
number three. Was not a good at bat early in
the game. So maybe that's it protection and help and
he's just going through that slump. But that's a long
time for one of the better hitters in baseball not
to lift the ball out of the ballpark, even when
he missed swings.
Speaker 1 (01:15:30):
He's so powerful hit out of the park. I would I.
Speaker 4 (01:15:33):
Would assume that people are pitching him even more carefully
on the road because they're a little more sensitive to
to being on the road in this building.
Speaker 21 (01:15:42):
Right, Well, I mean here's the here's something figuring it
out and or you know, maybe someone gets back like
a like a Tucker later on in August or early September,
and you know, drops down to a different part in
the lineup, maybe see a few more bitches and getting
it figured out.
Speaker 4 (01:16:03):
One brother, you're spot on. That'd be nice, thank you, Tyler.
And we're saying this with what a five game lead. Yeah,
so nice problem to have. But when they and he'll
get hot. We know that.
Speaker 6 (01:16:14):
Jordan Alvarez at home this season is hitting two fifty
nine on base at three forty eight, slugging a four
h six. That's a seven to fifty four ops, eight
home runs, twenty RBIs on his that's an average player
at home for him, especially for him on the road. Sean,
he's hitting three fifty six on base of four forty four,
slugging is six ninety four. That's in the ops of
(01:16:36):
one thy one and thirty eight forty six RBIs was
seventeen bombs.
Speaker 4 (01:16:41):
Now, I will tell you this, I have been around players.
It just I'm not saying Jordan's the guy because he's
hit well here in the past, right like in Postum.
He's been a dominant player at home a lot of thrills.
But I have seen players in the past that get
to a point where going on the road there's just
a little more relax you know, the expectations of home fans.
I'm not saying with the order, but it happens. Let me,
(01:17:04):
I'll just take it to my crow. I don't know
how you felt, Brian. I loved playing at home, but
there is an added pressure of playing at home because
the expectations from your home fans, at least on the road,
you're supposed to be booed, right, Yeah, you're suppably not
that they're booing jord on. My thing is that. And
then sometimes you take a little more relaxed approach. And
I would think that pictures, let me ask you this,
are you more confident pitching at home or on the road.
(01:17:25):
Most guys in their own building, right, so I would
think that they may be throwing pitches that they feel
better about, right, And you may get a little you
may when you're on the road, knowing with this building
and how the damage he's done. Maybe they're I don't know,
pitching him with a little less uh, with the what's
the word, I'm looking for a little more caution as
(01:17:45):
opposed to challenging him more on the road, because you
think in your own building you can overcome it. At home,
I don't know, sound like I'm trying to find you know,
you're a lot of that's a reach, but you try
to reach for something. A reason why the discrepancy is
so wide. If it was going to be wide, you'd
like to think think it was the other way around, right,
But which one do you think you could fix faster
(01:18:05):
hitting at home? That's exactly right. So I'd rather have
it this way, knowing that at some point in time
he is going to light your ass up. I do
still think a lot of it has to do with protection, lineup,
and he's a little bit just and sometimes you get
a little you know, the ball hits places you don't
expect it to, and that could flip flop just as
quick where his road stuff slows down at the end
and all of a sudden he gets hot at home.
Speaker 1 (01:18:27):
I just think for us it's more relevant at home
because we get to see him with our own eyes here.
Speaker 6 (01:18:31):
Do you think in his career he's hit better at
home or on the road.
Speaker 4 (01:18:36):
I would say most of the I would say, judging
from this that he's been a knowing what he's done
in places like finn I'm gonna say on the.
Speaker 6 (01:18:42):
Road, yeah, So on the road he's a better hitter
three h six with an on base of four h
five slugging a six twenty two. That's over one thousand
ops eighty six home runs two hundred and forty RBI
on the road. At home batting average of two ninety,
on base three seventy seven slugging a five forty one
ops nine eighteen RBIs two hundred and six sixty eight
(01:19:03):
home runs. I mean, either way, the dude is unbelievable
at the plate.
Speaker 1 (01:19:08):
Ran just hits better on the road than he doesn't.
I'm just going through a power struggle.
Speaker 4 (01:19:11):
He was actually going through a power struggle on the
road as well this year until he got started in fent.
I mean, he got going on the road on this
last road trip. But Brian, real quick he is. I'm
not worried about him at home. I think he'll be fine,
But there are guys.
Speaker 5 (01:19:28):
That.
Speaker 1 (01:19:29):
And I know this sounds on, but the distractions.
Speaker 4 (01:19:31):
You got more to do at home, you just do,
and some guys prefer to go on that. I've been
with players that listen. It's like, Ooh, I don't have
to deal with the home stuff, or you had a
new baby. I'm not saying, you know what I'm saying.
There's all kinds of distracts at home, and some just
relax more and take pressure off themselves, and some just
love going on the road and hitting in different ballparks.
(01:19:52):
I'm sure some ot of sheer boredom too, right Like
I'm now, I'm on the road, I get to go
to fendw Oh, I get to go to Toronto. I
don't know. And maybe he just given those other fans
a show. Yeah, who knows. But I'm not worried about
him turning it around. It's just been an odd year
for him power wise, because it's coming bunches and or
disappeared at times, which is not like him.
Speaker 6 (01:20:12):
Yeah, it's it's the power numbers were down. And then
he goes to Fenway Park. Yep, hits a couple of bomb.
I think he hit three, hit a couple over the
last I mean in August.
Speaker 1 (01:20:20):
I think he's hit four. Let's see. I can tell
you this. He said four in August.
Speaker 4 (01:20:25):
So yeah, he's thirty five in August for four doubles.
Speaker 1 (01:20:30):
I expect every year for him to get thirty five plus. Yeah,
the same with me. He's that guy.
Speaker 4 (01:20:34):
Yeah he's again. It could be just one of those years.
Speaker 5 (01:20:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (01:20:37):

get into the eight o'clock hour. Will continue to take

Speaker 6 (01:21:35):
Seven one three two point two five seven ninety is
the number to join stalk to Steve.
Speaker 1 (01:21:40):
Steve, what's happening.
Speaker 14 (01:21:42):
Yes, he's another twenty four hour Get the Life. I'm
happy about it. Yes, Well, you were talking about the
underreporting of the injuries by the teams.
Speaker 10 (01:21:52):
I'm thinking that when teams.
Speaker 14 (01:21:54):
Are negotiating for a player, they don't really want to
buy a bad back home or over, and they're naturally
going to get into the medical history and the medical
records as they're negotiating with a player for his contract. Well,
I guess that when a player is with the actual
team when he has an injury, the team doesn't want
(01:22:17):
the player to look bad on the injury part.
Speaker 10 (01:22:20):
So they just remain mute, so to.
Speaker 14 (01:22:22):
Speak, speak and try to mitig you know, soften it
as much as possible. Who knows, the player might get
upset about them going into great detail about the injury.
So that's what I was thinking about.
Speaker 12 (01:22:33):
What are your thoughts about it?
Speaker 1 (01:22:35):
Thank you, Steve.
Speaker 6 (01:22:36):
I just think the underreporting stuff is just not underreporting,
but just not the full transparency of injuries. It's just
kind of weird because there's been instances this year, especially
with the Atlanta Braves. Ronald Cuny Junior on the road tears,
his ACL gets an MRI. Their PR team comes out
an hour later, Boom, how do you hide an ACL?
(01:22:57):
Ozzy Alby's broke? I forgot whatever he broke. They literally
told everybody an hour later. Yeah, and here for whatever reason. Again,
they don't have to tell us, they really do. The
ass don't know us a damn far for the course,
that's right, But they just tell us, Hey, it's a discomfort.
Speaker 4 (01:23:11):
Yeah, that's the easy answer. Yeah, then it covers a
vast array of injuries. Right, Oh, it's discomfort, not feeling well.
And what he said, I think there is a little
bit too. I don't think this is a reason. But
if you're going to trade a person, and that's not
the case now turning deadlines past, but you're going to
trade a person you obviously want, not that you're trying
(01:23:31):
to okie dope, but you want to keep everything. You
want everything on the up and up. But if they're
doing their due diligence, they're going to find out if
a guy's hurt or not. Anyway, Yeah, that's why you've
seen some trades, you know, nixed because now I can't
make that trade failed physical Of course, they protect that
but I just think it comes that they it's almost
like a mandate of we are not giving away injury information.
(01:23:52):
It's anything but basic and vague, and they don't owe
us anything. But I know fans would love it more
if you said, hey, listen, Kyle Tucker, this is a
bad bone bruise you'll see in three months. But I
also think there's that part of the holdout hope that
if you told us right off the bat, Tucker's not
gonna be here for three months, wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (01:24:12):
You be like bummed?
Speaker 4 (01:24:14):
Yeah, Yet every day you're sitting on the edge of
your seat said, Okay, it's today, the day is tomorrow,
the day is the next.
Speaker 1 (01:24:19):
Day of the day.
Speaker 4 (01:24:20):
So it's frustrating, but I don't think it takes a
genius to figure out that Alex Bregman's elbow did not
happen by rolling over in bed. Yeah, okay, it may
have felt it when he got up the next morning.
That's not a lie, but that's not where this originated.
And you and I both know it, as does everybody
else who knows it. So, yeah, there's some gremlins in there, Doc. Okay,
(01:24:46):
your red grimlin's in your arm. I've had grimlins a
lot of places where coming out every poor at times. Yeah,
plus a few other places.
Speaker 1 (01:24:59):
Okay, yeah, the.
Speaker 4 (01:25:00):
Grandma's or the gremlins will get you. I rolled over
in bed one night, and all of a sudden, my
ankle blew out.
Speaker 1 (01:25:05):
There you go. It was unbelievable. It happens.
Speaker 4 (01:25:08):
I looked down. I said, thang, I gotta get it
fused together, my ankle. It didn't happen because you know,
well I was good to a car accident that got
t boned.
Speaker 1 (01:25:16):
It happened. I just rolled over, yeah, blew it out. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (01:25:19):
I woke up one morning and and my knee was
just gone. Knee replacement, Yeah, a new knee. Those are
called gremlins. And then when the pr you know in
media asked me the next morning before I got into work,
They're like, hey, what happened to your nie?
Speaker 1 (01:25:31):
Is that I heard it in bed slept on it wrong? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:25:36):
Or the guy with the black guy who says he
fell out of bed and let you fell in bed
and you hit that socket of your eye and that's
what gave you the black guy in perfection the size
of a fist.
Speaker 1 (01:25:48):
Yeah, you didn't break it, or he paid for it. Yeah,
there you go.
Speaker 4 (01:25:52):
So he might have paid for someone to punch him. Yeah,
that's my favorite. Like deshun, what happened to your knee?
Had to get it replaced? What happened? A couple of
Gremlins came in last night and unloaded on.
Speaker 5 (01:26:05):
Yah.
Speaker 6 (01:26:06):
Yeah, hey, how'd you get that black eye? I called
my wife, pumpkin.
Speaker 4 (01:26:09):
Yeah, that'll note right, that'll get that's where three black
eyes for you.
Speaker 1 (01:26:13):
If you call your wife that white well I pumpkin. Listen.
Speaker 4 (01:26:18):
I don't deny that he woke up and it was
bothering him his elbow. Yeah, I do deny that he
woke up and in the middle of the night somebody
from the movie Gremlins jumped into his elbow, and that
that's what caused it.
Speaker 1 (01:26:32):
Do what happened? My elbow screwed up?
Speaker 2 (01:26:34):
Man?
Speaker 4 (01:26:34):
I slept on the wrong No, you slept on the
wrong so it kind of brought attention to it. You
didn't blow out your elbow in bed, you guys, They're
just sorry to tell you.
Speaker 1 (01:26:42):
You just didn't. Okay, you did not. It didn't happen.
Speaker 4 (01:26:46):
Yeah, you did not, And so it wasn't a slight
bone bruise with Kyle Tucker. It's not like a kink
in the neck with Christian all right, so you you
a matter of fact, I would I would say air
on the side of there are season's over that everything
else is about him. Yeah, but it's an injury, any injury,
(01:27:09):
he's done for the season.
Speaker 1 (01:27:11):
That's it. He's out of there.
Speaker 6 (01:27:12):
Let's take a quick call before he gets the next
segment and turn our attention to the East Houston, Texans.
Speaker 1 (01:27:16):
Mark, Good morning, good morning.
Speaker 5 (01:27:19):
How are you.
Speaker 1 (01:27:20):
I'm awful, man, terrible, not good.
Speaker 5 (01:27:23):
I'm about that now.
Speaker 1 (01:27:24):
I'm just kidding Marked, No, no, no, we're great, man.
Speaker 5 (01:27:27):
Great. Hey. You know, if it walks like a duck,
it smells like a duck, talks like a duck, you know,
chances are a duck.
Speaker 1 (01:27:34):
Could be it could be a chicken though, could be.
Speaker 5 (01:27:36):
Well, that's true. I'm still giving the benefit of doubt.
But you've got a guy named He's about five foot nine,
five foot ten, he weighs about one hundred and eighty pounds,
and he's hitting about fifteen to twenty home runs a year,
and then all of a sudden he gains about thirty
pounds or maybe more. And he looked like Hercules, and
(01:27:58):
he starts hitting thirty five forty home runs a year,
and then all of a sudden, when they come out
with rules about steroids, he drops back down in his
jersey is last year or two that he wore just
was barely just hanging on him. His name was Jeff Bagwell.
And if that didn't smell like steroids usage, I heard
(01:28:20):
a little bit of, you know, conversation through the years
about it. But you know, after watching that Hall of
Fame presentation the other day, and this and that and
the other, and seeing a guy like Lance Berkman, who
did honorably all throughout the years, you know, and I
love watching Backwell, and you know, when I was, you know,
back in the nineties, you know, steroids wasn't you know,
such a topic as it became, you know, around Mark
(01:28:42):
Maguire's era. You know. But I just wonder why I've
never heard much about it in the media, the Houston
media through the years, or even from the national media.
I've taken the Sporting News for years and years, and
I just never heard much about Jeff Backwell's name, you know,
Whereas you know Roger Clemens, who certainly usedteroid or obviously did,
(01:29:03):
and and Grave Rodgers admitted to it, as did McGuire,
but not much about you know, those guys were blacklisted
for the Hall of Fame, and here's bagwell in the
Hall of Fame. I just never understood that. So, uh
you still there, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:29:18):
We're here. We're just letting you to speak. When do
you want to interrupt you?
Speaker 5 (01:29:21):
Man? Okay, well, you know, hey again, I'm an astro fan. Man.
Speaker 1 (01:29:25):
You know, I really am gotch.
Speaker 5 (01:29:27):
I just was. I just uh was amazed and really disappointed.
And I've seen guys like uh Clemens and and uh
McGuire and them. You know, I personally met Martin McGuire
is the great guy, and uh uh you know they
were castigated through the years and blacklisted and this and
that and the other, but blackwell, you know, he went
there by beside another honorable guy. I seemed to be
(01:29:48):
honorable guy was Craig Vigio, and uh they were just
kind of hand in hand. Be it to me Backwheell.
Reputations should should have been you know, seriously, but smirched
and and probably obviously so although he never never tested dirty,
but una start testing.
Speaker 4 (01:30:03):
And there's your answer. There's your answer. I didn't mean
to interrupt you.
Speaker 1 (01:30:07):
Mark. Uh, there's your answer.
Speaker 4 (01:30:08):
I hear you that that that's why is regardless of
our speculator. I know what you're saying.
Speaker 5 (01:30:13):
And I and we have swim never tested dirty either.
Speaker 1 (01:30:16):
What's that climent's right?
Speaker 5 (01:30:17):
Yeah? Is it?
Speaker 1 (01:30:18):
I mean there's one for some and not one for
the other. I understand.
Speaker 4 (01:30:21):
Yeah, I just but when you when you don't test positive,
it's hard to it's just a he said, she said,
thing right.
Speaker 5 (01:30:29):
Right, right, But there goes back to my duck thing
right right.
Speaker 1 (01:30:34):
That's understand.
Speaker 5 (01:30:36):
Thanks for the that's my two cents worth and it's
probably not even worth two cents with inflation.
Speaker 1 (01:30:41):
Yeah, probably not.
Speaker 4 (01:30:42):
I think it's it's worth more than a dime. Brother, YEA,
got you.
Speaker 5 (01:30:45):
But I am a I'm a dowered astro fan. And
by the way, Brandon Becky, I'm sure you all remember him.
He's my two houses down from me. We're good friends. Yeah. Anyway, Hey,
I'm a baseball fan. I'm an astro fan in particular.
And uh, I just want to throw that out there.
Maybe you all want to talk about it, maybe not,
Maybe somebody else will to comment. Maybe just let it
(01:31:06):
fall between the bed and the wall maybe where it
should be.
Speaker 1 (01:31:09):
But thank you anyway, I appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (01:31:11):
Appreciate you brother, Thank you. There has been speculation about
that over the years, hasn't there?
Speaker 6 (01:31:15):
Yes, there has, there has, but it he's wrapped up
in that hole everybody else. But for whatever reason, he
got into the Hall of Fame and Roger Clemens is not.
Speaker 1 (01:31:26):
And one is Clements has never tested positive. Correct. I
don't think he ever tested positive.
Speaker 4 (01:31:33):
And Bagwell obviously hasn't. And that's I think that's mark.
After that, we you know, he's talking about walk like
a duck. But if you don't test, it'd be very
hard to prove, if you don't have proof.
Speaker 1 (01:31:45):
Yeah, it makes sense. It just possible deniability.
Speaker 4 (01:31:48):
It just becomes speculation. I like I said, was there
talk here when Bagwell was playing? I mean I know
nationally what it was, but when I moved here, obviously
he wasn't playing anymore. Is he was there talk here
locally about it?
Speaker 1 (01:32:05):
No idea? Remember I wasn't. I was young.
Speaker 4 (01:32:08):
Yeah, I was just wondering, well, you weren't young ten
years ago. I was in college. Eleven years ago, I
was in college. Okay, so the people, but it was
it wasn't an everyday conversation.
Speaker 6 (01:32:18):
Yeah, I don't think so. A random fact for you
wealth of useless knowledge. Bruce Bochie has managed five Pennant
winning teams in his Hall of Fame career. He's never
led a team to the postseason the year following a
league championship.
Speaker 1 (01:32:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:32:39):
His three World Series in San Francisco were win one,
didn't do it, win one, didn't do it, win one.
I think he did it three and six years. I
think it was every other year. Obviously, he was coming
out of retirement last year and won it. And now
they're not in the playoff hunt right now. All those
Seattle's trying to play their way out of it. They
sure are. And I'm trying to think what was with
(01:33:02):
the other one with the padres right, Yes, with the padres.
Speaker 1 (01:33:04):
Right, So that one I remember because like leagues or so.
Speaker 4 (01:33:07):
Yeah, it's nuts, man, And that's a He's going to
go down as one of the greats of all time.
Will just I just step out of retirement and hit
the ground running and go get yourself another ring.
Speaker 1 (01:33:20):
A pretty good gig. Yeah, pretty impressive for Bruce Bochi.
Speaker 6 (01:33:22):
All right, let's talk about these Houston Texans joint practice
today with the Rams, they're gonna fire some stuff up.
We're gonna see a little sippiness. Let's talk about it
next time.
Speaker 4 (01:33:31):
I'm gonna make it simple for you when it comes
to playing getting your kid in youth football. And I'm
training a quarterback now who's an eighth grader, who's really good,
got a lot of potential, and we were talking about
leagues and how important you know the league he plays
in and Southwest Football League, what they're doing to make
a difference for your kid, whether it's options for leagues
(01:33:54):
six on six, eight on eight, eleven on eleven, sophomores
which are six man. When we say that's grades three
and four, we call them sophomore. We just kind of
put it to the college thing or high school thing
grades three and four six man football, the juniors or
eight man football grades five and six, and the seniors
eleven man grades seven and eight. You can learn a
lot and building self esteem is what this league is about.
(01:34:16):
Teaching it right, great coaching and making sure that every
single person that comes, their families and all are included
in no price out of the parents' pocket, free equipment
all first time think about this now, all first time
enrollies in the sophomore or junior tackle program receive free
(01:34:37):
equipment that's helmet, shoulder pad, and padded pants. It's expensive
to play these sports. So not only do they do that,
but they mentor and teach them how to be better
off the field and how to be great football players.
And I know this having kids and being taught that,
i'd sure seck like somebody at the early stage is
infancy of my football career to do it right. And
(01:34:59):
I was fortunate I have them do it right. And
I wasn't even a youth football league guy when I
was growing up. But the right coaches matter, and this
league has them. Plus scholarships are available and when it
comes at a very inexpensive price to go get great
coaching and training and great football. So let these kids
learn and spread their wings with the right coaches with
(01:35:20):
no cost.
Speaker 1 (01:35:20):
To the parents.
Speaker 4 (01:35:21):
And you, you sophomores and juniors free equipment, and that's
a lot of money that your parents can spend somewhere else.
It's the Southwest Football League Southwest Football League. It's s
f L t X dot org. Go in there, get
all your information, check it out late sign ups available,
but they're hitting the ground run and so you got
to jump all over it. You'll get no better coaching
(01:35:41):
and teaching in any youth football league anywhere in Houston

Speaker 3 (01:35:48):
War Sean Salisbury on Sports Talk seven ninety where Astros
and Rockets play and Real Texans talk.
Speaker 1 (01:35:57):
Is there such thing these d's? What I listened to
the reporter.
Speaker 4 (01:36:01):
You give the guy a hat when they're taking all
the wasn't it the quarterback back from Yeah? Yeah, I mean,
what do we call penalties nowadays? I just I I
read the report and I heard, uh the legal recruiting
of him right talking about it.
Speaker 6 (01:36:16):
I'm like, wait a minute, what's even legal recruiting these days?
Did they did they got legal tampering?
Speaker 1 (01:36:20):
Did they talk?
Speaker 4 (01:36:20):
Did they talk to him on the sidelines when he's
at Missier and after the game of Michigans say, man,
we'd love to have you here.
Speaker 1 (01:36:27):
Well, what do they do?
Speaker 4 (01:36:29):
So I'd like to know where the line is between
cheating and not cheating. Now, with all this money and
you can go, it's it's a wild, wild wild West
Times ten where you can go anywhere you want. We
what did Farrins do well you offered him. I mean,
what would you do? Buy him a sandwich? You know
what's crazy? I don't think you're allowed to as a coach.
Can you still be your kids? I'm not sure you're
(01:36:50):
allowed to unless it's a function or what. I don't
know if you can walk and say, hey man, some
kid who doesn't have lunch, here's lunch money for you.
If you do that, you know that's a violation, right,
ridiculous for a ten dollars sanwich. It's crazy ten dollars
such right, Yeah, So how do you keep up with
what's a violation?
Speaker 1 (01:37:08):
What is it? Now?
Speaker 4 (01:37:09):
I can't keep up? And Farence has been has been.
That program has been pretty clean for a long time. Right,
So wins again. Imagine you take the suspension early to
get the game out of you. It was whoever the.
Speaker 1 (01:37:19):
Early game and then they play Illinois State. Take that.
You're gonna beat Illinois State anyway. I don't know. Their
offense kind of sucks. Well, maybe by taking the head
coach out, the offense won't. Maybe won't. Gay He's had
a hell of her think about this.
Speaker 4 (01:37:32):
They're the Pittsburgh seris ironic, same uniform for the most part,
same colors. I want you to think about the last
time there was. Go back and look when Hayden Fry
was the head coach, Hayden Hayden Fry, h A. Y
D E and Fry at Iowa. You look when he
how many when he started? I know, uh, I know
(01:37:54):
Farrens has been there since ninety nine.
Speaker 1 (01:37:56):
Then and guess who was there?
Speaker 4 (01:38:00):
Oh my gosh, when Hayden Fries started his head in
nineteen seventy nine. He left Iowa in nineteen ninety eight,
and now it's twenty twenty four. Yeah, say it again.
When he started.
Speaker 6 (01:38:09):
Nineteen seventy nine, you know he finished in ninety eight,
and then Farens took over.
Speaker 1 (01:38:12):
Between Iowa and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 4 (01:38:15):
If I was now, do Chuck Noll, Chuck Chuck Knowle,
Chuck and Oll real quick uniforms the same. It's almost
like the DNA has to be the same, like they're
the feeder. When did Chuck Knows Chuck Noles start as
the head coach? Chuck Noll started as a coach head
coach in Pittsburgh sixty nine to nineteen ninety one. Okay,
(01:38:37):
since nineteen sixty nine, since nineteen sixty nine, the Pittsburgh
Steelers and the Iowa Hawkeyes have had five coats coaches
total insane. Now, go ahead, and do you do like
the teams like the Miami Dolphins or teams that are
fucking that. You know, after Shulet changing color, whoever it is,
it's changed a bunch of coaches, raiders, whoever it's.
Speaker 1 (01:38:58):
Been read a.
Speaker 4 (01:39:01):
Think about that since nineteen sixty nine, same uniforms, same
you know, the black and yellow whatever they call that.
They think it's black and yellow, the bumblebee.
Speaker 1 (01:39:12):
Look.
Speaker 4 (01:39:12):
Yeah, five coaches since nineteen sixty nine have been the
head coaches at Iowa and at the Pittsburgh Steelers. Now
there's teams that have changed five coaches in ten years.
So the one thing I'm saying about Farrence is and
there was a time, about four or five years into
his head coaching career, he was an assistant on Bill
Belichick's staff when Saban and Belichick and all those guys
(01:39:34):
were in Cleveland. Kirk Farrence was that guy, you know how,
that guy that everybody talks about, the assistant everybody wants
to hire for five or so that he's the hottest
guy and he's going to go from college to the NFL.
That was Farence every single year for it felt like
a decade. Now those whispers are all on there. He's
a lifer at Iowa and that's just like Hayden Fry
was right. But you think about that now, the Steelers
(01:39:55):
in Iowa and for the most part both friends, the
university and the Steelers. The continuity with that they've won.
I was in a bowl game every year. I mean
they win a lot of games every year. They may
not win natchally, but they're always nine to ten. They're
always around Steelers, same way. Five coaches since nineteen sixty nine,
and I'll guarant ask to you there's been the majority
(01:40:18):
of college and NFL combined have had more than five
coaches in two decades, the majority of them crazy andess
is it so crazy? So Kirk Farens has had a
hell of a run. So one game suspension is not
going to dictate whether they beat Illinois State or not.
Speaker 1 (01:40:32):
I'll tell you what sixty nine was a good year?
Really was that was that?
Speaker 4 (01:40:36):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (01:40:37):
Brian? What's the singer?
Speaker 6 (01:40:38):
Says Brian Adams Summer sixty nine. Yeah, there you go,
Ba saying my my knowledge when it comes to music
and movies, is just unmatched on this show. So when
it comes to there to show up and show out

Speaker 1 (01:46:30):
That's pretty sweet. I got.
Speaker 4 (01:46:31):
I got three and they did it for the theme
for me with with sc Minnesota, Kirby Pucket and Seattle
against let's see Randy Pucket. I got to look at
my other one, but three bottles of it. And it's
great whiskey. And it's Field of Dreams whiskey is what
it's called. I've told you it's phenomenal, goes down so easy.
Drew Storren, who's part of it, one of the founders,
(01:46:54):
who's who's who's involved with this business? And I believe
that they're going to tell you they used the corn
from that area of the of the Field of Dreams, right,
And the whiskey is great and a lot of ball
players are involved in it, so we're gonna have him
at nine to fifteen. We'll talk a little baseball, you know,
and get into that, but also talk a little bit
of whiskey and Field of Dreams.
Speaker 1 (01:47:15):
Whiskey.
Speaker 4 (01:47:15):
It's not on the shelves in text. It's working on
it though, but you can sure order it and get
it sent to you and we'll give you all that
information last nine to fifteen. Drew was an eight play
I think played eight years in a league years. Yeah,
and a really good guy. And it's funny when they
were interviewing when he was playing, he said, as a
as a guy who's a like a developer, a product
developed guy that will maybe go into the shoes or
product development, will following that good Stanford degree with a
(01:47:38):
bunch of other good people involved, and got this great
whiskey I've always wanted to do. I think it's awesome.
So Drew will come in and we'll talk to Field.
Just the history behind the Field of Dreams. Pretty cool
and if it is, like I said, they're getting that
corn from those fields, Yeah, that for the whiskey. How
cool is ass? Pretty sweet? And I'm telling you when
you come over in the next ten days from the games,
(01:47:58):
whether it's week zero or one out in probably week one.
I guess i'magined for the games, but uh, you'll have
to try something. It's off the charts.
Speaker 1 (01:48:04):
We'll have them one in nine to fifteen.
Speaker 6 (01:48:06):
Have they We talked about it offline earlier filled a
dreams games they.
Speaker 5 (01:48:10):
Had they're not.
Speaker 1 (01:48:11):
They don't have four. They can't. It's not they're rebuilding
the complex. It's off.
Speaker 4 (01:48:15):
They've got a bunch of youth little leagues going there.
But you you they have this year, they're not playing it.
Speaker 6 (01:48:22):
That's what twenty four no game and they had uh
uh they had a game at and what was the
game that they had this year? It was at one
of the Negro league parks. Right, I forgot what what
that was called because what's his name? Reggie Jackson had
that really powerful speech. Yeah, boy was it powerful on
set talking to Jeter and what you talked about.
Speaker 1 (01:48:45):
It was mesmerizing, was it.
Speaker 12 (01:48:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:48:47):
But I love the old history of I wish some
of those ballparks from those leagues and from all like
you know, the field that's where they played where and
some ares you know you can go and play and
use in some little leagues or using old fields are places,
but when you see where buildings were torn down and
like the home plates there, like in Chicago for old Kamisky,
you can walk on home plate there in the parking lot,
(01:49:08):
and you know, like the Crosley Fields and all those.
It would have been fun if they never tore him down.
But they turn them into shrines where you could still
go play games, like the Field of Dreams did, right.
Wouldn't that be a blast to give you an opportunity
to go see pretty damn a game there in person,
like a minor league game would have been cool. But
I know, real estate and followed the money and you
got to tear it down and build a new them.
But some of those old facilities like Tiger Stadium, wouldn't
(01:49:29):
it be great to go back to old Tiger Stadium would.
Speaker 1 (01:49:33):
Overhang? So yeah, no doubt.
Speaker 4 (01:49:35):
So we'll have Drew talk some baseball, how he feels
about the Astros, but also to talk about this, probably
the Field of Dreams whiskey and boy is it good?
Speaker 6 (01:49:43):
Yeah, that's game at Rickwood Field was Major League Baseball
honoring the history of black baseball and the Negro leagues.
It was played at Rickwood Field back in June.
Speaker 4 (01:49:55):
And have included and have included those statistics in the
all time Baseball numbers. To Josh Gibson's of the World,
Satchel Page a lot of phenomenal, phenomenal players that got
more recognition and uh and deserved it too.
Speaker 6 (01:50:10):
You know where Satchel Page played a lot of baseball
back in the day. Uh, it was a ballpark stadium
where Coconutt Field. You know where Coconut Field is. I
have no idea Alpine, Texas. That's where I played my
collegiate baseball. That was our home stadium, the Pine Coconut Field.
It is one of the oldest.
Speaker 1 (01:50:27):
It's a lot of history. Brother, It's one of the oldest.
It used to be.
Speaker 6 (01:50:30):
It was a minor league stadium way way way back,
like in the twenties.
Speaker 1 (01:50:33):
That sounds awesome.
Speaker 6 (01:50:35):
I mean, if you enjoy to play there, to get
you it was incredible. One of the coolest, that full
on stadium. I mean, I think we better go make
a speech to Soul Ross well one once I get
my Hall of Fame plaque. Now coming with me there
you go, I'm gonna present you. Yeah, damn right, you
are damn right, Yeah, Dan Rights.
Speaker 4 (01:50:50):
I would love to go to just on not just
a little off the point, but I'd love to go
to Like there's some college baseball field, like Appalachian State.
Speaker 6 (01:50:57):
Of You've seen their field, their backdrop, Oh my gosh,
what one is it Utah or Utah States.
Speaker 1 (01:51:02):
In it's either Uta Utah State? Why that's it's beautiful?
Which is in Utah Crossatch Mountain Range. It's unbelievable, dude.
Those are two that I want to watch a game.
Apple Aachia State. I look at that, I'm like mesmerized
by that.
Speaker 4 (01:51:14):
And there's you know on the Cape Cod League there
there's there's fields everywhere that you're.
Speaker 1 (01:51:18):
Like, oh man, what a hidden gem. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:51:21):
But that Appalachian State field when I see it, just
the over above view, I'm like, hell, build a house stand,
I can live there, forget just playing baseball.
Speaker 1 (01:51:29):
But yeah there Look.
Speaker 6 (01:51:31):
There's another uh university I forget which one where the
dorms are built into the ballpark, like the players live
basically at the ballpark, which is a really really cool feature.
I could imagine being a player and living at living
at the ballpark. All right, let's get to break seven

sleepwalking through the day, like I mentioned, And what that
means is the brain fog was kicking my ass and
I just felt sluggish every single day. And so fellas,
if you're going through that, if you're irritable, you're struggling
in the bedroom, you could be suffering from low testosterone.
So what I did is I went over to the
Spring location for NST Clinic and I got my testosterone
(01:52:34):
levels checked. Come to find out, I had low t
got myself on a total oneess optimization plan that procedure
took me about ten minutes. They draw some blood, they
run the blood, They gets your numbers back within ten minutes.
Speaker 1 (01:52:46):
Boom.
Speaker 6 (01:52:46):
You get to sit down with a clinic director and
you get yourself on a total wellness optimization plan. It'll
change your life for the better. And about a week
or so, and then you continue to tweak it and
it gets better and better and better. I feel the
best I've ever felt right now being on this total
wellness optimization playing five locations here in the city, the Heights, apparently,
opacity in a Cyperston Spring, dedicated providers, convenient clinic hours,
(01:53:09):
cash and insurance options makes it easy to get in,
get out, and get back to being you. And that's
what we want, fellas. We want to get you back
to being yourself. It's one call away one eight hundred
two four six low T one eight hundred two four
six low T. That's Men's t Clinic dot Com. Tell
him that Brian Lolima sent you.
Speaker 1 (01:53:28):
You're back.
Speaker 3 (01:53:29):
This is the Sean Salisbury showing get back at it.
Speaker 4 (01:53:33):
If he's not going to play third base because of
the injury, and you can't get that out of him,
you need him in the lineup every day, and then
if you don't want Jordan to play left field the
entire rest of the season, because if he plays left field,
you DH Bregman. But if he's playing d if he's
dhing and you want him there the majority of the time,
which he's been most of the year, you can't play
(01:53:56):
Bregman and he needs back in the lineup. So I
open the show saying, put Bregman at first base, and
then you deal with the changes with Diaz and Keratini.
When you're on plays left field, you can DH Bregman.
You can put one of the guys at first base
and the other one at catcher, but the majority of
the time, and then Singleton can be that guy who
(01:54:17):
comes off the bench. But in my mind, you have
to have Bregman's bat, especially with Tucker out, and if
you can't play third base, which seems like with those
grimlins in his elbow, doesn't seem like he's going to
be doing it much. It's day to day. I need
him in a lineup day to day. I need his
bat in the lineup day to day. Put Bregman at
first base. Justin Verlander didn't get the win obviously yesterday
but pitch pretty strong coming back after that time off,
(01:54:40):
and I think that we're looking at a guy who
will be ready and hitting the ground run and when
it comes to that stretch run and also the postseason.
Speaker 1 (01:54:47):
Let's get out to Ray and Memorial Ray. Welcome in.
Speaker 12 (01:54:49):
How you doing, man, Hey, good morning Sean, Brian and
good stuff. As always, you guys are top notch when
it comes to the sports information. Man, I love listening
to you. But you know, as I do, I'm gonna
make a couple of comments and I'm gonna hang up
and listen. But uh doing y'all. You guys are speaking
about the Iowa uniforms. I think Iowa, they the Roonies
(01:55:13):
are such a class uh organization. There's there's such class people.
I think they had an agreement or something with the
officials that Iowa that allowed I would have been able
to use their color scheme and use their unit basically
their uniform. Yeah, yeah, I think they Yeah, I think
they did. Art ronis just he was just a classic.
(01:55:34):
Rest in peace to him. But uh, it makes me wonder,
Uh shouldn't you would think that cal nicknare and and
and what's your face in Tennessee would be able to
to come to some kind of agreement to a lot
of Texans to be able to do something to honor
the oilers. But you know it's it's neither here nor there.
I wanted to get you guys comments on that. Secondly,
(01:55:55):
before I hang up, what I don't understand the basic
the infatuation or the love affair with with the pre
rankings having basically having the Cincinnati Bengals I entered in Houston,
Texans and Joe Burrow ahead of C. J. Sproud in
the ranks. If you guys can shed some light on
(01:56:17):
it and make me understand that you guys are the experts.
So I'd love to be to kind of hear what
you guys have to say about it. I hang up
in this Okay, Yeah, I have a.
Speaker 1 (01:56:26):
Great nare hi Ray, thanks appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (01:56:28):
Uh As far as the first one goes, I don't
know if you're ever going to see what the Titans
do and Adam's given the Texans the opportunity to honor
you know, the Powder Blues and all that on a
regular basis or when they should, I don't I don't
know if that's going to happen. It'd be great, but
the Texans are making it for themselves, and if it
wants truly honored, it should be honored here, no doubt. Secondly,
(01:56:51):
when it comes to the love affair of Joe Burrow,
Joe Burrow is a hell of a player. If Joe
Burrow doesn't get hurt, everybody's talking Burrow mahomes as the
top two. And most of the experts I've talked to,
and you see, had those two as one too, Josh
Allen would would would find his way in Lamar Jackson
find his way in a couple others, you know, fluctuate
(01:57:13):
from three, four or five, but there was never any
question on who the top two were.
Speaker 1 (01:57:16):
When he's healthy.
Speaker 4 (01:57:17):
That's the problem, Ray, and I'm sure that's where you're
going that look at, look at real quick what Joe
Burrow did to completely turn around a franchise similar to
what CJ. Stod did here in one year as well,
Burrow goes to Cincinnati. Now they're every year Super Bowl contender.
And so that's why he's done it.
Speaker 1 (01:57:34):
The longer.
Speaker 4 (01:57:35):
They're both originated from Ohio State. Burrow has been in there,
he's been When he plays, he is a freak show.
He is a great player, So I understand the love now.
I understand coming off an injury saying, well, let's he's
been here hurt twice. Now, if Joe Burrow stays healthy,
he's in that talk. He belongs there. So that's why.
And he's done it a little longer, and similar to
(01:57:57):
CJ or CJ, similar to Joe Burrow, they've making franchises
and everybody, even though Cincinnati went to the playoffs like
the Texans did, floundering around the scouting department and trying
to find the coach and you know, they're just not
getting to super Bowls.
Speaker 1 (01:58:10):
Theyre not dominating every year.
Speaker 4 (01:58:12):
Well, we think the Texans are now and Cincinnati now
since Burrough's air is one of those players now, so
I understand why Burrow's air Now. Burrow stays healthy all
year long, and so does CJ, and they go get it.
Both of them are top five or top six guys
right now, so they're not far behind. I think it
just is done it longer. And Burrow's been in a
Super Bowl and carried his team to phenomenal, phenomenal heights
(01:58:35):
on a for Cincinnati Bengals team that was not very good.
Speaker 1 (01:58:38):
So there are similarities.
Speaker 4 (01:58:39):
I just think it's a little longer and the conversation
probably even better after two or three years to see
where CJ.
Speaker 1 (01:58:45):
And Joe Burrow stack up.
Speaker 4 (01:58:47):
But for my money, if I get to you, if
I'm naming five quarterbacks, Burrows one of them. It's the
injury thing that now starts to concern you. Can he
stay healthy for the next decade? We'll see Sports Talk

Sean Salisbury.
Speaker 17 (02:00:25):
To usc Truth, longtime friend Shawn Salisbury.
Speaker 3 (02:00:27):
Ryan Lima, go Lobos. This is the Sean Salisbury Show.
Speaker 1 (02:00:35):
I want you to understand some I'm gonna say.
Speaker 4 (02:00:36):
I'm standing on the mountaintop and telling you Bregman's going
to play first base.
Speaker 1 (02:00:40):
He's got gremlins and his elbow dog.
Speaker 4 (02:00:43):
I'm not saying down the road saying he's a third baseman.
You're gonna play first base for this team? You want
him in the lineup?
Speaker 1 (02:00:51):
Yes? I do. Do you want your on in left
field every play? Every every game? You do? You want
him in left field every game? I want him in
the lineup somehow, I wouldn't mind him, As I.
Speaker 4 (02:00:59):
Said, left field every day for fifty more games the
playoffs all it's sixty more games.
Speaker 1 (02:01:03):
Does it keep Chas McCormick and Jake Myers out of
the lineup. No, but it keeps Alex Bregman out of lineup?
So who plays? If you?
Speaker 4 (02:01:11):
If you, if you, if you put it you're talking
about if he's in left field? Yea, it keeps Alex
Reed in the lineup. Do you want him to play
every day field?
Speaker 1 (02:01:21):
Jordan? Yes, every day left field. No, I don't not
every day. Now you're I already know you're it's going
through your head.
Speaker 4 (02:01:28):
Do you think and Jordan left field, Alex Bregman, the
DH Victor Carrettina first base.
Speaker 6 (02:01:32):
DNA he had to play, Yeah, I'm I'm with that,
or vice versa. The catcher in the matin both catchers. Yes,
But then that one hundred and what we got it.
Speaker 4 (02:01:41):
We're one hundred and thirty games every thirty six games
and twenty some games, yeah played.
Speaker 1 (02:01:48):
How many games is Jordan played left field this year?
I don't know. Is it more than thirty?
Speaker 6 (02:01:52):
I can get it real quick. By the way, we
got a Drew store in joining us. Next segment.
Speaker 1 (02:01:57):
He's did as well former uh eight seasons as a pitcher.
Let me get this real quick, Stanford.
Speaker 4 (02:02:03):
Guy by position this year? Come on, man, computers would
run a little slow. Bear with me, why you're looking
that up? So if you want Bregman and Jordon in
the lineup every day without Jordon having to play left field,
(02:02:25):
even though he hits well when he plays left field,
without that, if you wanted him there every day, you'd
play him there every day because it hasn't exactly been
a dominant position this year for the Astros at the plate.
Does that make sense? It's not like I mean low
Berfido struggled at times at the plate. He's no longer here.
McCormick's had a rough year. So if you want every
day player in left field, you would have put Jordan
(02:02:46):
out there regularly this season. Du Bond can play there,
but I'm gonna need him at third base a lot
of times if Bregman's not playing third base this season.
Speaker 6 (02:02:54):
Yordon Alvarez has started one hundred and twenty games, seventy
nine of those as D eight.
Speaker 1 (02:03:00):
And forty one of those in left field.
Speaker 4 (02:03:01):
Okay, so he can do it. We've already seen that.
We know he's formidable. They don't want to play him
out there every day, or they would have correct, correct, Yeah,
all right, So if you're not gonna play him, I understand. Now.
If you play him out there in left field, then
you got Bregman of DH, and just like we said,
you got those four bats in a lineup, Kroteni and
Diaz first base and catcher as well. That's the best
of all worlds. Okay, best to all worlds. But you
(02:03:25):
do not want Bregman out of the lineup ever? Correct, Yes,
you don't. You have to have Okay, So you look
me in the face. Do you believe they're gonna play
your on left field every day?
Speaker 1 (02:03:36):
Every day?
Speaker 6 (02:03:36):
No, less than a third of the time for the
rest of the way thirty six games left, ten of them. No,
it'll be more than that, you Yeah, Now it's gonna
have to be well, does it, yes?
Speaker 1 (02:03:51):
Every day?
Speaker 4 (02:03:52):
Yeah, if Bregman's your first baseman, does it No. That's
my point that alleviates that if you don't play Bregman
on the days you d H Jordon Alvarez, which will
be probably more than half of them. Let's just did
you buy I'm just going by stats regard because they'll
put Dubona, They'll they'll mix and match the out corner, outfield,
(02:04:12):
tul Tucker comes back.
Speaker 5 (02:04:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:04:14):
And Jordan's a good he can play left field. All
this as under standing. He hits well.
Speaker 4 (02:04:18):
But if you play him, if you decide the days
you're gonna dh him, Let's say it's half the time.
Let's just split it in half. I say that counting
two rounds of playoffs. Let's say we got fifty games
twenty five and left field twenty five DH.
Speaker 1 (02:04:31):
Okay, where are you playing Bregman those twenty five games?
And Tucker? Still we're not saying Tucker till after Labor Day.
You and I know that.
Speaker 6 (02:04:39):
It just seems from what we've heard over the last
two days in regards to Bregman's elbow and what he
said to the media last night, he's probably not going
to play third.
Speaker 1 (02:04:46):
Base, so when and obviously right.
Speaker 6 (02:04:51):
So basically just just recapping what we're discussing. In order
to get him and Jordan in the lineup at the
same time every day. Every day, you're gonna I have
to have some sort of mix of Bregman is dh
Caratini Diaz at first or catching vice versa, and then
Jord on the left. And if you don't have Jord
on a left then what do you do because you're
not gonna not have you want to bat in the
(02:05:13):
lineup in this stretch run and going in the plass.
You want to play baseball without Bregman's battle. And if
he can't play third base, then where's he going to
be on the bench If he's not playing ath that's
not gonna happen, right. So so this and also what
it gives you with that flexibility is not to be
forced to play Jordon in left field. Right now, I
can date Jordan, no problem, put him out there when
I need to make sure I'm preserving his legs. And
(02:05:35):
guess what, I can play him at first base right.
His glove will be fine. He's smart.
Speaker 4 (02:05:42):
He may relay once in a while throw it around
the horn, which he he doesn't. He doesn't need to
underhand that or keep him out of the around the horn,
right if you're depending.
Speaker 6 (02:05:52):
Right, And this whole notion about moving guys to play
first base being a difficult thing. If Mauricio Dubon can
play first, And this is no disrespect to do Bonni
the gold glove, and you.
Speaker 4 (02:06:00):
Still disrespect the first base, right, who can play Bregman
can play first base? Well, if you can handle the
hot corner third, you can handle Scooter first with a
bigger glove. Yes, I don't actually think that there's much.
I don't think you have a lot of latitude here.
If you aren't willing to do that, there's not You
are more encumber I mean it's cumbersome to have. If
(02:06:23):
you're not playing Bregman every day at the plate, it's
gonna your your lineup. Do you talk about bandwidth it
it's limited then yeah, because you still have And if
you're going to DH one of those catchers with two
catchers on the roster your hose, he can't you and
you need him because the guy pulls a hammy run
in the bases, who's catching, then you're to bring somebody
up when they expan the roster.
Speaker 5 (02:06:44):
Right.
Speaker 4 (02:06:44):
So, to me, an easy transition is when jord On
Dhs Bregman plays first base. And even on the days
you say well Jrdon's and left field, you may still
want Bregman in his glove at first base and having
Kartini or if you bring a third catchup, then you're
safe with Salazar and then you can DH when we
(02:07:06):
don't lose the DH. If you have to switch positions.
To me, it's an absolute no brainer. Did Bregman get
run at first base? How much depends on yourd on's
left field DH stuff.
Speaker 6 (02:07:17):
Yeah, cause again, you cannot afford to not have him
in your line up.
Speaker 4 (02:07:22):
If they have Bregman playing part time and Tucker's still hurt,
they're not winning a World Series.
Speaker 1 (02:07:28):
They're not.
Speaker 4 (02:07:29):
I know they've done great without Tucker, but you can't
keep living like this. And then all of a sudden, ah,
let's get Bregman once every four days, because well he's
only the DH. He can't play third Hell no, put
his asci at first base.
Speaker 6 (02:07:40):
He's good enough to do it, you know. And one
thing Dana Brown told us yesterday here on the show.
Speaker 1 (02:07:46):
Has he every Wednesday?
Speaker 6 (02:07:47):
If you miss it's up on our block Sports seven
ninety dot com. He said, quote, he could play third
base today, but the plan has been to ease him
back in his DH end quote. Okay, so there's that,
But then what Bregman says afterwards, tripley can you run
that audio real quick of Bregman. It's a quick This
is Bregman after.
Speaker 1 (02:08:02):
The game yesterday. There's swelling.
Speaker 13 (02:08:04):
Obviously, there's no nothing structurally wrong with the UCL, but
some little congremlins in there causing some swelling that I'm
just gonna have to try and mitigate through the rest
of the year and keep the swelling out.
Speaker 6 (02:08:17):
Okay, So basically from what I'm gathering from that, mitigate
throughout the entire rest of the season. Right, that shows
me that there's not going to be a lot of
third base being played because of theirs swelling in your elbow.
If it doesn't bother him when he's hitting, he's going
to be a d H and that's it. Or well,
we're discussing put him somewhere so he's all so all
of the best bats are in the lineup, he's going to.
Speaker 4 (02:08:37):
Play first base. I'm just telling you. And we say mitigate,
you know how you mitigate it. And this team's been
extra conservative with injuries, making sure you don't rush anybody back, Right,
why would you take the risk you're playing it? You decide, well,
you know what he feels better today, Let's go play
him at third and all of a sudden, he has
to make an unbelievable thrower diving play and then he
heard again, and now you don't get him at the plate.
Speaker 1 (02:08:59):
Now you can get it at all. First base, yeah, DH,
and first pace.
Speaker 4 (02:09:03):
Yes, you get plenty of bandwidth and latitude with the
rest of the players. You can if you're if you're
struggling big and left field, Jordan can go out there
and play left and you can still play Bregman at
first base or DH. Alex Bregman absolutely has to play
first base if you want him in the lineup every
day when especially you need Jordon is the DH on
days you don't want him in left field? Yepman had
(02:09:24):
I can't. Bregman can't be a platoon player when he's batting.
I mean when we got his bat right, he's got
to play. Yeah, there's no chance that that you can't
have him. And the only way to do that is
play him at first base. Yeah, there's no other option.
Isn't it crazy? This season piece of than just more
adversity that we're discussing for this team.
Speaker 1 (02:09:41):
It's it's it's it's insane.
Speaker 4 (02:09:42):
And I got news for you. You won't miss a beat,
No defensively with him. No, I won't miss a beat, No,
not one beat. And I'm not so sure he's not.
With that small glove at third base and all the
stuff he does. Give him a bigger glove at first base.
I'm not worried about short hops getting by the guy.
He's caught plenty of those on on a smoke one
hundred and five yard line drive off the bat right. Okay,
(02:10:03):
it short hops him going to his left or right
and he has to backhand it. Now you're just going
to have to throw him out, put him at first base,
and when Jordan's dhing, he stays at first base. When
Jordon's in left field, you have the luxury of the
truth is you would DH him then so you don't
lose the DH. When you got Keratini and and Diaz
catching and playing first base, that's your lineup.
Speaker 6 (02:10:23):
Then you bring John Singleton off the bench to play first.
If you got to move one to catch up, well, you.
Speaker 4 (02:10:27):
Need a fastball, late inning, fastball hitter that's a righty
verse lefty. And then you got the flexibility of Dubond
in centerfield or left field, depending or third base or Altuve.
And then hopefully Tucker gets back, and you got your.
Speaker 6 (02:10:38):
Permanent right field yep, and then you got two young
guys would come into Zenzo fill in whatever.
Speaker 1 (02:10:42):
Rud could play four different positions right there, you go,
got to play him at first base.
Speaker 6 (02:10:47):
Former Major League Baseball pitcher Drew Storing is going to
join the show next right here on Sports Talks seven ninety.

Don't kid yourself your storm joins his longtime Major League
eight years and the Stanford guy. So he's gonna make
us all smarter through this, and he's got a great
thing going on. Drew Welcome in Man we appreciate you.
We'll talk some baseball talk. Product I was looking at
a video of you in the past and you were
talking about you. Is it product development? This is what
(02:12:42):
you thought if you weren't playing baseball or when you're done,
what you wanted to do?
Speaker 1 (02:12:46):
Well, I'll be damned you developed an awesome one.
Speaker 4 (02:12:49):
But when did you know you wanted to do something
other than baseball? And what really got your goat when
you were going?
Speaker 8 (02:12:56):
Yeah, so that was always my backup playing. First of all,
thanks for having me on guys. Great awesome, Yeah, yeah, oh,
appreciate it. No, I just always had a flare for design.
My mom's a graphic designer, so I was like fifty fifty.
I would go play sports, and then she worked from home,
so I would go drawl. And then once once I
went to Stanford and you know, I got the itch
out there with taking some really cool classes taught by
(02:13:19):
people that worked at Apple and all that. So I
always wanted to have that backup plan and always had
knew I needed to have an answer once I hung
it up, because I can't just sit still.
Speaker 4 (02:13:28):
Were you doing in your off seasons? Did you dabble
in other stuff?
Speaker 8 (02:13:33):
Yeah? So I actually, when I was in DC, I
drew up and designed the elevated seeding in the bullpen
that they ended up putting in. Yeah. So I was
tired of tired of looking through the fence, so I
campaigned for it. Took me about two seasons, I think,
and then the ownership got it done for us. So
that's my h That was my active on top of
(02:13:56):
just you know, designing little things on my cleat. That
was pretty much how I used it.
Speaker 4 (02:14:00):
How awesome is that Stanford guy? Eight years in professional baseball,
most of it was Washington. They better have given you
a great finders fee, designers fee for that good grace.
That's architecture, that's rolling with some blueprint and then putting
it to you. Strew Storren, longtime Major League baseball player pitcher,
joins us here on the Sean Salisbury Show. All right, Drew,
we're gonna let's talk a little baseball first and then
I want to hit this product hard and how cool
(02:14:21):
it is?
Speaker 1 (02:14:22):
First off?
Speaker 4 (02:14:23):
And how cud A lot of guys with my buddies
that you know when I played, when they quit playing,
they didn't watch much. Do you still watch a ton
of baseball?
Speaker 8 (02:14:34):
I've reapproached it now that my oldest son is seven,
so he's getting real into it. And so now now
that he's old enough to kind of get what I
used to do, and I get to watch it with
him and teach him the game. Right, I have no
idea who half the guys are that I'll tell you
that it's crazy, the type of turnover there's been and
how fast time flies. You know, It's like, man, it's
been four years since I last played, So it's crazy,
(02:14:57):
But I do I'm enjoying it now because you know,
it's a completely different game than when I was playing.
Speaker 1 (02:15:03):
Yeah, no question about it. And part of that.
Speaker 4 (02:15:05):
We're here in Houston and it's been a pretty damn
good run, Drew. You know, seven straight a lcs's and
you were you you were playing when they were in
the middle of this run. And they've had three managerial
changes and they've all been successful and you know gms,
and yet they continue to win. Let me ask you,
from your years in a clubhouse and seeing it and
with these astros, does winning come before chemistry or is
(02:15:28):
chemistry create winning?
Speaker 8 (02:15:32):
You can definitely have chemistry without winning, but I think
you know, winning solves everything right, and it's much easier
to create great chemistry. And you know, and you have guys,
you have staples, you know, guys that there there's the
astroway right, always talk about the Cardinal way, but there's
like there's a core and they know if you're going
to go play for the Astros, this is what this
is how you know the expectations are here and you
(02:15:54):
know that's that's why they've had the repeated success. And
you know, I was pumped to see Dana Brown get
the job because I love that guy. I was he
was there in DC and I love him as a
baseball and as a person.
Speaker 4 (02:16:06):
Yeah, you know what's interesting, we went they went out
and got Kokuchi during the trade deadline, and here in
Houston people were, you know, when you give away young prospects,
people like, oh, why are we doing this for a
guy who struggled? Yet Dana was steadfast and good fastball.
We're going to utilize him, right, And here he is
in four starts, his pitch pretty damn well. And with
all these injuries to the Astros pitching staff, these young
(02:16:28):
guys and veterans that are new here have had to
step their game up and Dana Brown. The talent has
always been an eye for scouting talent and regardless of
what people are saying, And you saw a part of that.
He's been doing that here and it's been paying off
for the Astros.
Speaker 8 (02:16:42):
Oh yeah, I damn near gave up a touchdown in
Arizona State. He was an attendance for it, and they
still drafted me. So you know, he's able to see through.
He's able to see through, you know, some of the noise.
So I always appreciated that.
Speaker 4 (02:16:55):
Will it be pitching or hitting when you watch what
Judge is doing and Otani's doing. Will it be pitching
or hitting when it gets to the postseason or is
this just like defense in football? If you get stops,
that game's even changed. You get a great quarterback, you
can overcome some average defense. Is it still about pitching
in the postseason?
Speaker 1 (02:17:12):
Drew?
Speaker 8 (02:17:13):
Yeah, I think to me, it's so much about hitting.
It's just grindy hitting. You know, everybody is going up,
you know with Haymaker punches now, but those guys that
are able to get the four whole six hole single,
like that's the kryptonite in big games. Is to me
that you know, if a guy if I was facing
the guy and you know he's trying to be the hero,
(02:17:34):
I had him right where you are. But it's those
guys that were like, well, you know, the Cardinals are
always great about that, just taking the pitch of the
outside corner and just feeding it the other side. Like,
that's to me what the difference maker is in the postseason.
And that comes with the experience, which obviously the Astros
have plenty of it, and you can't teach that.
Speaker 4 (02:17:50):
Drew Storm, longtime pitcher major League Baseball, most of it
with Washington. Stanford grad joins us here talking baseball, talking
this product, which is awesome. We're going to get to
right now. But Drew, you hit it, and I know
with the way change and where at launch angle and
all that stuff that we do. But when it gets
right down to it, pitchers hate small ball, don't they,
And when they're opposing small ball because big swingers you
(02:18:13):
can get out. So in truth, solid pitching, good defense,
but putting the ball in play ends up being the difference. Now,
the home run matters. You got a slug, but that
small ball is a is a killer for opposing pitchers.
Speaker 1 (02:18:25):
Correct, Oh, yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:18:27):
For sure, because you know especially late in a game
a reliever, it takes an egregious mistake for you to
pretty much get shot. And so you know, it's it's
when you make a good pitch and then they do
a good piece of hitting. That's the most defeating thing.
Like if you hang one down the middle and the
guy hits it off the train tracks. Yeah, of course
that's supposed to happen. But it's like, Okay, I'm painted
(02:18:48):
that down in a way and he just you know,
took me the other way, Like, man, what am I
supposed to do with that?
Speaker 4 (02:18:53):
Right?
Speaker 5 (02:18:53):
Right?
Speaker 4 (02:18:54):
He hit your good pitch? There you go right instead
of one you miss that? There you good? That's great. Well,
the Astros after being ten games out or five games
in front, and they've had like eight guys and Kyle
Tucker's still not playing, So it's a holding out hope
that this will be one of those special seasons. Is
going for eight alcs is in a row. All right,
let's switch to this great product. You guys sent me
(02:19:16):
three bottles. I got Randy Johnson with our sc connection,
Nolan Ryan with the Houston connection, and I was in
Dallas for Well and Kirby Puckett one of my all
time favorite guys, God Rest his soul in Minnesota. With
my background in sports, each bottles the numbered All right,
first off, tell tell the folks how Field of Dreams
Whiskey came about.
Speaker 8 (02:19:36):
Yeah. So, when I was in DC, I caught the
bourbon bug kind of before a lot of people did.
So it was like twenty thirteen and a massed a
collection of bourbon that goes back to Prohibition era, you
name the crazy story. I probably overpaid for it.
Speaker 1 (02:19:51):
But you got it sometimes, right, just to have it there, yeah,
I'm with you.
Speaker 8 (02:19:54):
Yeah, yeah, And just to have and be able, you know,
give people the tour and say, Okay, here's this bottle,
here's a crazy story about this. And one of the
first the first book I read was called The Best
Bermon You'll Never Taste and it's about age or sixteen.
So I just fell in love with the lore of
it and just started collecting. And so throughout collecting, my
best friend from home, Andy, and I were on a
(02:20:16):
road trip talking about like, okay, if we were going
to do something, what would we do? And that's when
we had the idea to use the Field of Dreams corn.
So that was twenty eighteen, So fast forward. You know,
we had nobody said it was a bad idea for
two years and then I'm at the end of my
career and I'm like, you know, this seems a lot
more fun than kind of living out of a suitcase,
(02:20:37):
and you know, the game was coming up, and so
I decided to lead baseball and start this and got
my former teammate Tyler Clipper involved at brief astro and
then another teammate, Jerry Blevins.
Speaker 5 (02:20:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:20:50):
I was going to say, Lisa was founded by and
owned by major leaguers, right, guys that you've known and
played played against her with, right.
Speaker 8 (02:20:56):
Yeah, Yeah, So this it's kind of our own approach
to and that we keep it simple. A lot of
brands have you know, a distillery already exists and you're
you know, guys are mascots. Now every decision is made
by us. All the design is done by me. Like,
so it's it's kind of special in that way, and
we're just trying to tell authentic baseball stories. So that's
(02:21:18):
why we obviously use the most famous corn in the world.
And then we parallel whiskey numbers with baseball numbers. So
as you mentioned with our annual player series release. It's
one bottle for every guy that's ever made to Major League.
Speaker 4 (02:21:28):
For number, even if he stepped one game on the field,
he blend, and it'll change the number if all of
a sudden you go back in time and somebody that
you discover in history, somebody else will It may move
somebody's number later, right, But every single guy who's downed
a uniform and been on a Major league field has
a number of bottle.
Speaker 10 (02:21:47):
Yes.
Speaker 8 (02:21:48):
So it's I always say, it's like our player D
and V number right to what you were aligned. So
I was nineteen seven thirty six. And so we actually
built the website so that you can plug in your
number and who you get.
Speaker 4 (02:22:00):
And that's at Drink DRINKFIELDO dreams dot com. Is that where,
that's at slash buy online you can get it. That's
where you can get the whiskey.
Speaker 8 (02:22:07):
Right correct, And then there's a bottle look up tab
there as well. Yeah, we're we shipped to Texas, so
we would love to get down there, but because we
know what a great baseball market is. But yeah, if
you go to our site, you can get a shipped
to you. We're almost sold out of those and we
have a small batch coming up which we've licensed fifteen
(02:22:28):
plus retire guys that we laser etched their face and
autograph on the on the tops and we're going to
be covering that with opaque plastic, so you don't know
who you get. You have to open it.
Speaker 1 (02:22:38):
Oh no, it's awesome. What a passion you have for
I can tell you.
Speaker 4 (02:22:42):
But this is like an exciting for you as baseball
was getting buddies involved. And I'm telling you, when you
guys send it to me, I popped that bottle open.
And this isn't to say this. I've talked about this
before you. You came Andrew a couple of weeks ago.
And it's so good though, I mean, the ta it
goes down so smooth. What And I'm so intrigued with
(02:23:02):
how did you make the call and go about getting
the Field of Dreams corn? Is there was there a
line to stand in for that or were you that
first one that ever asked for it?
Speaker 5 (02:23:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (02:23:12):
I think I think there was some gate keeping going on,
But I just went on LinkedIn and found somebody was
on the board and he had his email on there,
so I just fired off and email and hoped he
was a big baseball fan, and luckily he was and
supportive of what I was wanting to do and connected
me with any Ray, who just a couple of years
older than me, who was the farmer that takes care
(02:23:33):
of it, and you know, we're best friends at this point.
But I told him, I'm like, hey, man, here's what
I'm thinking. You know, I've got this design background, baseball background,
and and I love bourbon. I love the stories, and
I think this makes a lot of sense. And so
I was like, sure, Well, He's like, I usually just
take it in town and sell like feed corn. So
I was like, dude, we will take care of you.
Speaker 1 (02:23:53):
Might as well feed us some good bourbon while we're
at it. Man. Drew Storren A long time.
Speaker 4 (02:23:57):
A couple more minutes, real quick with Drew Storren here
on the Sean Salisbury Show, longtime major league pitcher, most
of it with Washington and a great designer and developer.
And they've got this incredible field of dreams, whiskey and
different small batch coming out as well. All right, how
do we get it? And how do we get it
here in Texas on the shelves. I know they can
order it again at the field of Dreams dot com,
(02:24:18):
Drinkfield Dreams dot com, slash buy online and the tabs
there also for the number and to go into that
to see what number you get if you get it.
So with that, how do we get it here in Texas?
And is there a timeframe? And how can we help you?
Because if you need a distributor or you need a
guy going out and hawking, and I'm in brother, because
it tastes a list.
Speaker 3 (02:24:36):
Oh you're the man.
Speaker 8 (02:24:37):
I appreciate. Yes, we we actually are looking to come
to Texas as quick as we can get there. So
if anybody is a distributor or if you're a retailer
and you want to carry us, just go to our
website and contact us. And you know we luckily we're thinned,
so we can move quick and we're going to have
plenty of small batch.
Speaker 4 (02:24:55):
So think about this baseball Texas and bourbon and a
successful baseball team and you're designed behind it and telling
great baseball stories and might as well go win another
World Series.
Speaker 1 (02:25:07):
It has to be here, doesn't it. Let's get this
thing rolling on.
Speaker 8 (02:25:10):
Man, absolutely, I appreciate it.
Speaker 5 (02:25:12):
I would love to.
Speaker 8 (02:25:13):
It makes too much sense.
Speaker 4 (02:25:14):
And that's drink Field of Dreams dot com, slash buy online. Drew,
this is phenomenal stuff. I'd love to have you join
us again, just when it's here, if you're ever through Houston,
come on in studio, talk baseball. Your bourbon's fantastic. Your
design is off the charts. It is a great, great
idea and the fact that you got the corn from
(02:25:34):
Field of Dreams makes it even It's just so real
with great stories. And I got Nolan Ryan, Randy Johnson
and Kirby Puckett, and I feel blessed to have it.
And I'm not sharing a damn bit of it with
anybody unless they want a little sip. They don't get
my bottle. So there you go of it. I appreciate you, Drew.

I appreciate you very much.
Speaker 1 (02:26:07):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (02:26:08):
What what what a guy in Stanford. I told you
was smarter than the rest of his truth. Thank you.
Although I don't know Soul Ross s C.
Speaker 1 (02:26:14):
Where does it?

With neat on the rocks.
Speaker 4 (02:26:30):
Please, thank you. You can't go neat on the rocks.
Meat's just neat.
Speaker 1 (02:26:34):
Neat. Yeah, just give it to me. I'll give you
a neat on the rocks beach. Yeah, you can tell that.
I don't drink. We're gonna we're gonna teach the bourbon side.
Give it to me on the rocks. You think we're
a little late, A little bit, that's a bit.
Speaker 6 (02:26:44):
And I need to tell you guys about Men's Tea
Clinic real quick as well as we get to break.
Men's Tea Clinic five locations right here in the city
of Houston, the Heights, Parlam, Pasadena, Cypers, and spring Fellas.
If you're sluggish, struggling in the bedroom, don't have good workouts.
You just feel crappy throughout the toy. You're probably struggling
from low testosterone. Trust me, it happens, especially when you
(02:27:04):
get to the age of thirty. Get over to Men's
T Clinic, get your blood drawn, and get on a
total wellness optimization plan. It takes just about ten minutes
to get those results back. You will not be disappointed
with the treatment over at Men's Tea Clinic, five locations.
Like I said, Men's Tea Clinic has been leading the
way for safe effect. I've been always individualized testosterone replacement
therapy and total illness optimization for ten years strong. Right
(02:27:26):
here in the Houston area and of course up in
Dallas Fort Worth as well. Get over to one of
those locations right here in the city one eight two
four six low T MEN'ST Clinic dot com.
Speaker 1 (02:27:35):
Tell them that Brian Lima sent you.
Speaker 3 (02:27:39):
The Shawn Salisbury Show continued, Well as you could tell,
I'm not a burd drigger really.
Speaker 1 (02:27:50):
Oh hell, I'd like my eyes frozen. Ya give it
to me. Give me hey, man, you gotta come get
some some fild dreams whiskey with me.
Speaker 6 (02:28:00):
Yeah, man, I'd like it to make it. I even
said I'd like it neat and on the rocks. Thank you,
I said, well, I'm not sure you could do bull.
We could do both, but I don't think you can
have it at the same time of your life.
Speaker 1 (02:28:10):
Don't think.
Speaker 4 (02:28:11):
Well, you know, you can see I don't do I
don't drink much bourbon or whiskey. You don't say no,
I sure don't.
Speaker 6 (02:28:21):
Oh man, Alex called back, so let's get to him
real quick, Alex, what's happening.
Speaker 1 (02:28:24):
Thanks for calling back.
Speaker 5 (02:28:26):
Not a problem, man, what's going on with fellas? Hey?
Speaker 1 (02:28:28):
Real quick? For the first base thing. I think we
should bring back Jose Brady.
Speaker 5 (02:28:32):
Now I'm playing.
Speaker 1 (02:28:32):
Don't take my hand. There's no chance. No, I'm I'm
messing around with that one.
Speaker 5 (02:28:38):
Not.
Speaker 7 (02:28:38):
I think Bregman at first base is a good plan.
It saves the arm. He doesn't have to throw, you know,
one hundred and five ire balls across an entire diamond.
I even think that if they would have done that
a little sooner, some of those balls that were getting by,
you know, Yiner and a couple of the other ones,
I don't think they would have gotten by.
Speaker 1 (02:28:57):
He's such a lock on the corner as it's unreal.
Speaker 7 (02:28:59):
I think I think first base would be the absolute
right miss.
Speaker 4 (02:29:03):
So you're all in on what I said about that.
I I one hundred percent buy into that, don't you, Alex,
I really do.
Speaker 5 (02:29:09):
I do.
Speaker 7 (02:29:10):
I think that is that's the move to you at
least keep that bat, especially in the month of August.
But it is hot as he gets in August and
end of September, that would be the move to keep
him in the lineup on a daily basis.
Speaker 4 (02:29:22):
Yeah, and if all of a sudden in September the
elbow feels great, then good Tucker comes back. Your don said,
we're all good, but you might find a hidden gym here.
And I don't think you're going to lose one ounce defensively,
I don't.
Speaker 1 (02:29:34):
I don't either. I don't either.
Speaker 4 (02:29:36):
Matter of fact, it'll be the best glove they've had
at first base since Yulie.
Speaker 1 (02:29:39):
I'm telling you, I believe.
Speaker 4 (02:29:42):
I believe that he can play that position that good
on they either corner endfield.
Speaker 1 (02:29:47):
I do, so why not? Why not milk it while
you can.
Speaker 4 (02:29:50):
The worst thing you'd have to do is what make
a relay throw unless somebody else took the relay from
right field.
Speaker 1 (02:29:55):
And and and just swing that bat.
Speaker 4 (02:29:57):
As you mentioned, August is his best month right and
heading into September at the plate, I gotta have him
in the lineup and it gives me more bandwidth. I'm
all for it, Alex, gotta do it.
Speaker 1 (02:30:07):
Absolutely real quick. Two quick points, Sean.
Speaker 7 (02:30:12):
Earlier, Brian said that his knowledge of movies and music
on this show is unmassed.
Speaker 1 (02:30:17):
Yeah, and he that was about it.
Speaker 4 (02:30:19):
That's the biggest lie you've ever heard on radio because
it's unmatched for a person who's not born yet that
doesn't know anything about movies or or or or what's
or music. You know more about music than movies. Yes,
I'll give you that credit question.
Speaker 1 (02:30:31):
Yeah, Nationally.
Speaker 7 (02:30:32):
Now that being said, they have these replica championship like
wrestling and UFC belts you can get and Sean, I
think what you ought to do is get one that
says wealth of Useless Knowledge Champion and play it right
above your desk.
Speaker 1 (02:30:44):
And I don't you know that in that studio, you
know you're onto something.
Speaker 4 (02:30:47):
I'm gonna get t shirts printed up with the unpaved
brand that I got, Yeah, and I'm gonna hand them
out too. You damned rights and that it starts with
the championship belt because guess what useless knowledge is where
championships are won. Okay, how's that for a quote? And
that's where we're going.
Speaker 7 (02:31:03):
Yeah, last point h two days ago, I saw uh
the a team on the Space City Network like Simulcats,
and I was just trying to figure out when y'all
were going to get to do that, because I'd watch
that show from six to ten every morning religiously y'all
interact with each other.
Speaker 1 (02:31:22):
Hey, we've been saying this for a couple of months now, Alex.
Speaker 4 (02:31:24):
Yeah, we were ten miles over broken glass. We get
all four. Oh, buddy, I think you'd like that better
than tape tape content. That's just me, that's.
Speaker 1 (02:31:34):
Me, but would agree. Yeah, I appreciate Alex.
Speaker 4 (02:31:37):
I appreciate you. Yeah, I take that. I think people
over their coffee. They'd be spitting out coffee quite off,
and I'd love it.
Speaker 6 (02:31:43):
I got a message from a buddy that said he
was listening and driving down the road and you were
talking about pound cake and he said he spit his
coffee out.
Speaker 1 (02:31:50):
Thanks.
Speaker 4 (02:31:52):
Yeah, sometimes you Hey, sometimes it's just sometimes you have
to deliver pound cake.
Speaker 1 (02:31:56):
Can simply name yourself, Sarah Lee. You were talking to
Triple like in the six fifteen.
Speaker 4 (02:32:01):
Say what did you did you say anything or did
you just deliver parent cake?
Speaker 1 (02:32:05):
Yeah? Yeah he didn't. He wasn't called snookums.
Speaker 4 (02:32:08):
So if you're not calling your lady or your guy snookems,
then you're not really you're.
Speaker 1 (02:32:12):
Not cheesy enough. Do you call him?
Speaker 4 (02:32:14):
I wouldn't call anybody snook thems. Okay, you don't call
your guys?
Speaker 1 (02:32:18):
What do you call him? Well, you know you text man.
I appreciate that.
Speaker 6 (02:32:27):
Yeah, let's get into the final segment of a Thursday
listen to the Sewn Salisbury Show.
Speaker 1 (02:32:32):
Robert Rong will get to you guys next.
Speaker 6 (02:32:34):

That's beutiful.
Speaker 1 (02:34:26):
CJ.
Speaker 6 (02:34:27):
Stroud to Stefan Diggs for like a fifty plus yard
touchdown bomb. Dak Prescott's not doing that triple e.
Speaker 1 (02:34:36):
Who was that? I thought you're a duch, you're Cowboys fan? Never?
Speaker 6 (02:34:40):
No, Okay, that's good. Welcome to the Texans Man. Alright,
let's say, let's get two final calls here. Let's get
to Ron and then Robert. You on the show. Ron,
good morning, Good morning.
Speaker 2 (02:34:50):
Hey, just a quick topic change. If the Ashals keep
going the way they are make the playoffs, does the
spot get consideration for Manager.
Speaker 5 (02:34:58):
Of the Year.
Speaker 6 (02:34:59):
Yeah, Ron, we actually talked about that quite a bit
last week. I believe as it stands, right now, even
if the Astros don't don't get to do you say,
just the playoffs?
Speaker 10 (02:35:10):
No, no, just I mean obviously that would help.
Speaker 1 (02:35:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (02:35:13):
So so what Sean and I have talked about all
a lot last week is right now.
Speaker 1 (02:35:18):
It's a two horse race.
Speaker 6 (02:35:19):
In our opinion, it's Voight for the Cleveland Guardians, the manager,
their first year rookie manager, they're one of the best
teams in baseball.
Speaker 1 (02:35:26):
And then Joe A. Spota. So yeah, I think he
gets considered a heavy consideration.
Speaker 5 (02:35:31):
All right, thank you very much, appreciate.
Speaker 6 (02:35:33):
You, appreciate it, Ron, And let's get to Robert. Robert,
what's happening?
Speaker 17 (02:35:38):
And Breggie hits a home run yesterday and I wake
up to you guys telling me that that.
Speaker 1 (02:35:45):
I heard the Grimlin quote, but that, man, it's I
guess it's I guess.
Speaker 17 (02:35:49):
We don't know what's going on, but it's worse than
we might think, and hopefully hopefully he can play third.
Just man, he's so valuable over there. And I get
I get what y'all been talking about all morning, but
it does uh oh, and by the way, y'all should
be suld on Space City. It reminds me of moneyball.
Speaker 1 (02:36:09):
Do you'll remember when Scotty Hadiburn.
Speaker 17 (02:36:12):
Yeah, and he's sitting, He's sitting in this he's sitting
in his house. Then he says, uh, first base isn't hard.
Speaker 1 (02:36:18):
Tell him wash, it's really it's extremely hard, and it
just makes me.
Speaker 4 (02:36:23):
But the difference is Hadiberg was a catcher, Yeah, and
wasn't used to the ball coming out of that, you
know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (02:36:30):
And he survived it.
Speaker 4 (02:36:31):
But but Bregman's glove, don't you think is so good
Robert that that.
Speaker 1 (02:36:37):
He'll adjust quickly?
Speaker 4 (02:36:38):
And if I have to have him, if I need
him in the lineup every day, which I do is
bat and Jordan's not going to play left field. I
every day I have to have him play, and first
base is the logical place right got to have him.
Speaker 17 (02:36:50):
You know, you know what I go to is And
I'm not comparing myself to these pro athletes, believe me,
but I played center field, and even if I had
to go left or right, the way the ball comes
off the bat, it's a difference, no athletes.
Speaker 5 (02:37:03):
So it's it's it's.
Speaker 17 (02:37:04):
But no, dude, every day y'all do a great job.
I appreciate y'all and go get I'm gonna cast it.
Speaker 1 (02:37:10):
Let's go.
Speaker 4 (02:37:11):
Thank you, appreciate, appreciate the compliment. It is different and
it's not easy, but I believe Bregman's hands are so adepted.
You know, he's so good. He can play first If
you can't throw it, you got to keep in the
line up first base. Bregman got to play him there.
Speaker 6 (02:37:24):
Man, if you're not ding him, we got a big
show tomorrow, Sean, I hope you're ready.
Speaker 1 (02:37:28):
Come on, man, you're storing by the way in that
nice the field of dreams.
Speaker 6 (02:37:32):
Whiskey, Stefan Diggs just call like a fifty yard bomb
from C. J. Stroud to open up joint practice Texans
against the Rams.
Speaker 1 (02:37:38):
They just cook the Rams.
Speaker 4 (02:37:40):
Well, you gotta you know what you got to do
though with Stroud and and Diggs.
Speaker 1 (02:37:44):

Speaker 4 (02:38:26):
Feel good about it? So you still are you buying
into my Bregman at first base? Yeah, you're buying. I'm
talking about full buying in order to get him in
the lineup every day. If you are going to d
H you wor on An Alvarez, Yes, okay, you have to.
You can't afford to not have his bat in the lineup.
