Speaker 1 (00:00):
Are you ready for another edition of the Rob dimml
shows the years deep right field and he's got again.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
First hitting home brought last night for Devers, we Freeland depers,
Freeland took exception to Debt Berns and we're gonna at
both bitches empty.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Kyle Farker's getting in there and now here's Rob Dibble.
I mean Kyle Freeman. Freeland's got no beef here going
after Rockfield. First of all, Raffie, who had been not
swinging the batwell was player of the week way last week. Yes,
(00:44):
a lot of people didn't know. I mean Schwarber Endeavors
were given co players of the week for what they
did last week. Uh and in the National League, I
forget who did it in the American League. But he hits,
He hits the first inning home run off of Kyle Freeland.
Kyle Freeland is there and fourteen.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
People I didn't know he had three. Yeah, man, he's got.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
He's three and fourteen.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
With a five loss last night for the Rocky.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
A five and a half. Era has just been awful
all year. And then after the game has the nerve
after he starts this whole like not brawl but basically
a dance off in front of the mound bench is clear.
It's like there's nobody even in the stands. This wasn't
even a good local like WWE event, you know, one
(01:28):
of the lower level events. This is just a bad,
bad night for the Rockies all together. And then after
the game, Kyle Frielan goes off and he's like, I
can't believe he disrespected me like that, Like what, like
what he watched his home run because he hit it
so damn far he you know, most guys, honestly, it
wasn't a big bat flip or anything. It was just
he took his time, which anybody who knows him, he
(01:51):
doesn't hustle the first anyway on a ball. Back to
the picture in the first base, so I just think that, listen,
this isn't a way over reaction to your frustration of
having an awful year, and you took it out on Devers.
So now Devers doesn't even get the first base. You
start screaming at him. You're screaming it HiT's what's Dever
supposed to do? So Devers turns in with a mouthful
(02:13):
of goo in his I don't even know what Devers
tried to say Freeland just kept what I like that
Matt Chapman was was on Freeland's back so quick to
make sure you're not even going to take another step
towards Devers until I body slam you. And it was
over before it started. But it's one of those things.
(02:35):
It's embarrassing for Kyle freelan in the Rockies having an
atrocious season. Like you said, you got your hundredth loss,
your one hundredth loss in what one hundred and thirty
nine games. It's a despicable season. The management should be
fired some of these players. You can't fire them, but
they should be sent packing and sent down to the
(02:56):
minor leagues. And this guy should be sent packing as well.
Kyle Freeland three and fourteen with a five four ERA,
and you're bitching and moaning that someone's being too You've
disrespected pitching, my friend. You're disrespectful to the game. Maybe
not ever right the whole Colorado Rockies. And you know
I got friends in Colorado.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
I should ask them what the cheap seats are, like,
what the specials are?
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Public?
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Should center field should be free?
Speaker 1 (03:22):
And yeah, you should be like you want to go
sit in center field?
Speaker 4 (03:25):
Go sit in centerf It's wild to listen to that
low light. I don't want to call it a highlight.
I guess to be a highlight for Devers. There's nobody there, nobody.
You can almost hear them talking to each other as
they're on the field. You can definitely hear a lot
of the talk next to the microphones that were from
like the stands, just because it's one or two people that.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I'm looking at the highlight right now. The lower bowl
is just so sparse with people. As Devs is jogging
to first it's there's nobody. As he gets towards first base,
there's nobody in the stands, nobody there there. So of
course if I'm Devers, I can hear every word out
of your mouth. The best thing was after Logan Webb's
(04:08):
quote was well, yeah, Freeland runs his mouth a lot.
I'm surprised that this didn't happen earlier. I can't believe
he says that. I know, I know it's Freeland, but
you don't really I tell you what, Logan, Logan Web's
a monster, but he's ready for this. Then Willia Domas
goes bananas. I mean, there's here's the thing. Once you
start this. You don't know what psychopath is going to
(04:30):
run around and start smacking people. That's the one thing
about opening this up, opening this door up on a
brawl that guys are running in from the bullpen. They
don't want to do that. Guys are coming out of
the training room looking for trouble because they don't even
know what's going on. My wife asked me about this
picture she's got at home of me being choked at
the bottom of the pilace. She said, what happened? I said, well,
(04:51):
Reggie Sanders took about ten steps towards the mound, Glenn
Braggs and I jumped the little fence there at Riverfront
and sprint out like you know, cause we're going down
the stairs. We don't even know what really happened. So
we go after Pete Harnish, we go after the Astros.
We hate the Astros anyway, and I find myself at
the bottom of the pile getting choked to death. I mean, so,
(05:12):
you don't know what's going to happen once you take
that step to defend your teammates, or once you take
that step like Freeland going after Devers. You know, listen,
giants still have a chance to go to the playoffs.
They're playing really well right now. They've got I think
they've got like eighth or seventh easiest schedule the rest
of the way. I know that Yankees have the tenth
(05:32):
easiest schedule the rest of the way. Some of these
teams are going to the postseason. You don't want one
of your best players to get hurt because some other
guys offended by you watching a home run.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
We did have some winning baseball in this area last night.
Red Sox win. They keep on putting runs on the board.
Yankees win, they keep putting runs on the board. New
York Matt's put a lot of runs on the board.
But this picture man, Noah McLain is on Faya. He's
won his first four starts.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Is he solid?
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Era has been spectacular. He's been striking him out. He's
got a lot of different movement. You brought this up
his last start. He has been saving that Mets rotation
and that bullpen big time when they need it. Did
against the Tigers last night. They're already on the field.
It's a two to three ball game, top of the seventh.
Tigers up on the Mets right now. But last night's
Wining that pitching performance for him was spectacular. And then
(06:22):
for the New York Yankees, not only Max Freed, Paul Blackburn,
this dude looked all right, like Max Freed gonna be
a solid ace for them, or it needs to be
a solid ace for them every.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Time out from here on out. And I thought that
was a very good game for them. Chisholm, See, here's
the problem, Chishm swinging a great bat. Shut your mouth.
He's hot, right yeah, but he's like, we're we know
we're a great team right now. Why would you put
that out there. Just keep doing what you're supposed to do,
keep hitting, go towards the postseason. It's right now, it's
(06:56):
a neck and neck race between you and the Red Sox.
Red Sox finished that game before you closed out your game.
Mets were in the process of dismantling the Tigers' pitching
staff until today. I think they got mice today and
that's why they they haven't scored a bunch of runs
because they actually got a real Tigers pitcher in there.
But listen, there's no reason for Jazz Chisholm to stir
(07:17):
things up right now. The Yankees are just they're getting
there doing their thing. Freed pitched. I think seven strong
innings last night. You did the job last night. Don't
don't get anybody going because listen right now, the Red
Sox are unbelievable. The Red Sox had a five to
one lead, and then I'm watching this game live and
Crochet just decides to give up three home runs, six
(07:38):
runs in one inning. The guys, he's he's gonna be
up for the Cy Young at the end of the year.
He's having a great season. His team comes right back.
Rafaela in the bottom half of that inning where they
lose the lead seven to five, hits a two run
home run. They tie the game right back up. Their
bullpen does a great job, and then they blow it
open in the ninth inning. I think they got five
(07:59):
runs in the ninth inning and they blew that game open.
But their hitters are on fire. Trevor's story is on fire.
Everybody's playing well. Here's the thing they didn't need. Roman
Anthony got hurt and maybe done for the season. Took
It was a good pitch by the pitcher for the Guardians.
It was a change up. He swung through it. Immediately
(08:22):
after he strikes out and he was two for three
when he grabs his right side and you knew that
I was bad. He went right down the steps and
it was over. And so he is listed four to
six weeks. Hopefully he'll be back sooner. But listen, with
an oblique you're resting it first because it's like a
pull on your side. Then you got to take a
(08:44):
week to get back. By the time he gets back.
Now that we're into September, Minor league baseball's over, there's nowhere.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
To go rehab.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
You're not going on rehab because there's season ends in
the next couple of weeks by the time he comes back,
so that now they basically could do what they want.
But you need this guy for the postseason. You're not
winning without Roman Anthony in your lineup in the postseason.
I don't care who you think you could stick in there,
and I don't care how hot the pitchers are, you're
gonna run into some really good pitchers, which Roman Anthony
(09:14):
has shown that he can hit the lefties, he can
hit the tough guys. So that's an injury they didn't need.
But man, they were clutch. That was a clutch game.
The Mets. What they did last night was clutch. They
continue to do some clutch stuff, so.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Annings when they get on rolls Man, especially the last
couple of nights.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Well, we talked about this yesterday and I don't even
call it hot. This is what Soto does. This is
what you pay him to do. Hit good pitching, hit
the bullpens, come back in some games and have some
meaningful hits in these meaningful games. That's what we need
you for. Trevor Story. We paid you a boatload of
money to do what you're doing. Bregman, same thing. We're
paying you a boatload of money. Chapman. You got Chapman up,
(09:51):
You scored five runs. It wasn't a safe situation. We
didn't need to throw you three days in a row.
Sit the hell back down. We'll bring somebody else in
to finish this game off. I mean, what some of
these teams are doing right now is trying to get
as healthy as possible. But at the same time, a
lot of these teams are losing players to injury, and
it's just like, listen, you got three weeks left and
(10:12):
then we start the postseason. I mean, it's going to
be interesting in a lot of these wildcard races and
a lot of these just trying to track down the
division winners. Toronto Blue Jays came back and won that
game against the Reds. It was up and they were
you know, Red's got close and then they pulled out.
I think George Springer had a couple of home runs
in that game. So I think that there's a lot
of things going on that guys are starting to know
(10:34):
that there's another season and that's called the postseason, and
they've stepped up their game.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
We have got twenty four, twenty five, twenty eight, about
twenty nine hours to the NFL football season, Dallas Cowboys
take on the Philadelphia Eagles.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
We're out and about now.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Henry and Alex from the Rob Doubles Show are out
at Bobby V's as we speak, testing our lines, making
sure everything's tip top. Bud Light and Dem Boys are
sent us out to Bobby V's tomorrow to celebrate the
start of the season. We want you to be there
as well. We're doing those show live from Bobby V's.
I don't know how many This Probabor twentieth Anniversary show
at Bobby Ve's one of my favorite places, one of
(11:12):
Dibb's favorite places. It's gonna be a lot of fun. Obviously,
they've got all the TVs, all the gambling that you
can do.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
And Winner's putting odds on people if they could beat
us in cornhole.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
I have to call Lucky Lou and see if that
number has been posted yet. But yes, we will have
some cornhole there, sponsored by bud Light, and if you
beat us in cornhole, you will take home some prizes.
We also have some bashing Man Scalco tickets out there
and some Mike del Judas tickets out there, so plenty
of things for you guys to win.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
But yeah, there is a football game.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Everybody's looking at your cowboys like they're done done.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
You're looking at them like they're done done.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
And I don't know if I could buy a Packers jersey.
First of all, he changed his number to one. Did
you have an Eddie Lacy? I have a Lacey one.
I have Aaron Rodgers one, but it's an ugly green man.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
It's tough to wear.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
That's a rough run unless it's like part Star on.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
There, right, I mean Saint Patrick's Day.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I'm like man's.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
St Patrick's Day. I don't think you bust out they call.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
That Kelly Green or is that not even Kelly Green?
I mean, that's just a tough I keep looking at
do I want like they have a third alternate jersey
that's like a purplish brown that I'm thinking about maybe, Oh,
I know the one, you know what I'm talking about.
And the Rogers one, by the way, is a white
away jersey, so that's not even that green.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Well, now Parsons is dropping a one. He's just going
to one instead of eleven. So that's a unique thing
for a Parsons jersey right now. I will give props
to my man Steve, who I caught out there at
the tailgate. He was my tailgate interview for Yukon CCSU,
loud and proud with his Parsons Cowboy jersey.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Oh, I had it on for my fantasy draft. I'm all,
my guy. I'm like, hey man, it is what it is.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
You like the guy? Listen.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
He's gonna have a good year. But I'm not selling
the cow Boys down the road yet. I think the
offense is still tip top. Like, I think the offense
is gonna be better this year than it was last year.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
If Pickens can be a good old.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Well, he's on my fantasy team too, So I'm hoping
he's like my wide receiver three, maybe my flex guy.
So I hope you gets some good point.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
If he can walk the line like a Johnny Cash
reference for you, If he can walk the line and
be a good boy and learn from CD, learn from Dak,
Dak can teach you some things. Man, He's been in
the league for a long time. Coach Schottenheimer, I'm excited
to see what kind of offense.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
I love your tight end.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
I think that Ferguson guy is one of the best
good I don't think they're gonna have a problem scoring.
I think the problem is back the end of that defense,
back end of that defense, and the reason the back
ends even more so now is because you don't have
the pass rusher. Yeah, Michael Parsons like is one of
the best pass rushers, but when it comes like run defense,
(13:54):
I don't think he is the biggest cog in the
machine of stopping Saquon Barkley.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
I'm with you.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
I think he's a bigger cogging the machine of getting
the time in the pocket to be as less as possible.
Like when Michael Parsons is out there on the edge,
you have to have Saquan to know about him for
that potential block. Jalen Hurts is gonna have to know
about him. But now that he's not there, that extra
half second to look around is so valuable for Jalen
(14:21):
Hurts in their passing offense. Trey Diggs, what about him?
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Man? Expecting him to be a player this year?
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Right, Like, doesn't hurt man, if you can stay health.
It's it's all about health at the Cowboys. Dak Prescott
keeps getting hurt. This guy gets hurt. It's like, you know,
Jerry's bitching about Michael Parsons and I'm like, what about
the guy was sitting in your box all year? That
Dak guy? Whatever happened to Dak's got this. I mean,
it's just help. Yeah, he health. Health is a huge
thing with the Dallas Cowboys. So I just pray for
(14:48):
their health and then then then give yourself a chance,
give yourself an opportunity. But listen to the Eagles are
gonna be tough. Commander is gonna be tough. Giants are
gonna be tough. And I know in the next hour
we're gonna go over our preseason picks. Yeah, some of
these teams that we're looking at are in the AFC
East or NFC excuse me, NFC East, and I think
it's the Eagles to lose. I think the Eagles are
(15:10):
one of the best teams in football and are gonna
be for a while. Well, I mean one of the
things is not on our list. Would you agree or
disagree that that? Let's say, offensively, Saquon Barkley is the
best player in the league.
Speaker 4 (15:23):
I don't understand why fantasy drafts don't have this dude
penciled in at number one. I'm here, dy M close,
Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson, Are you're one and two? Like
all the youngsters as wide receivers as we say that,
like all the youngsters are going wide receiver. All the
fantasy drafts that I know do not even mention Saquon
as your top four picks.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Dude doesn't touchdown a game. Dude's gonna get the ball
fifteen times.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
He's gonna rush for close to two thousand yards.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
He may have more catches than all those receivers in
Week one. Like, I don't understand why people are still like, ah,
you know, he's the best in football, But I don't
want that right now, I'm gonna I'm gonna roll the
dice on something else.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
I think Saquan is the most set it and forget
it guy.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
When it comes to your fantasy team, and especially for
that Philadelphia Eagle offense, they'll probably be working on a
lot more that doesn't involve Saquon because they know that
part's good.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
I just don't understand. I still think there's this stigma
about running backs, possibly like there's like they're gonna be
like your fifth or sixth, seventh round. That's when the
running backs of my league were going or injury.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Me.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
I took Derrick Henry very early. I couldn't get Saquon
because he went quickly. But other than that, some of
the other running backs were still around in the fifth
and sixth round because I don't think a lot of
people care about running Though.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
We mord Is team coming off as Super Bowl. For me,
Jalen Hurts is not.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Still getting no respect. The Chiefs Dynasty Chiefs have their
own like show The Kingdom.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
I still like how they use Jalen Hurts as not
talking as a part of his like ego in commercials.
I forget which one he's just doing where he doesn't say,
you know, I.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Don't say much because that's part of my game. I
love that guy. Great. He is the quarterback you want.
He is, you know, so never used to.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Talk Doug Williams. You go back to Doug Williams when
I was younger. That cat was the cool He was
like shaft. I was like, this is this guy's like
a superhero man. He is like a crime fighter.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
That is so And you imagine Jalen in a dark turtleneck.
He should be like an action guy busting your door down.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
And I don't think he wants to, like like in
his mind, I don't need that, you know, I kind
of cringe stuff. You know the way the kids talk
and it's like, no, dude, why don't you just like
show up? And what it was? The expendables, Like what
are they? Unexpendable?
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Eight?
Speaker 1 (17:39):
I mean being one of those stupid expendable movies that
anybody could be in him and and you don't have
to say anything.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Thirty does and he should be the Jim Brown character and.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
You look like ramp Page Jackson in the A Team.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
He does.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Just be in it and be all yoked up. Maybe
get Saquon in there like saus in a new commercial
where he's like a falotfer. He's like, really Wyatt and
and it's like, you know, but at least he's talking.
He's like, so Jalen hurts. His persona is I don't
(18:12):
talk right? Persona is everybody comes to him to solve
their problems. True?
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Yeah, yet yeah, And I don't want to have a
good running back right exactly. It's so mind blowing to me.
I think they're not a.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Good head coach. We still want to fire him?
Speaker 3 (18:28):
Are the Eagles?
Speaker 4 (18:29):
In my estimation, when it comes to repeating in this league,
it is so difficult. And I know the Kansas City
Chiefs have been there and done that in the last
AFC what seven straight AFC championships something like that, And
I understand all that, but I just feel like the
Eagles have everything set up to repeat right now, especially
with the neighborhood they're living in. I mean, washing him
might have something to say about it, but still they
(18:50):
they look head and shoulders as the best football team
going into the season.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
I won't bug South Pale this week, but next week
we'll get South pal on.
Speaker 4 (18:57):
We'll ask him about's wait till the Times are bad
in Philly, that's the best salpal.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
When times are good, it's like God, he.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
Can barely get anything out of him because he's got
a martini in his hand, and he's like.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
Hey, come what do you Come on, we'll hike it
and we'll win.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
What do you uh? Why are you even questioning me?
Speaker 4 (19:16):
And when they're losing, oh, Soal's got a lot to say.
Are you ready for another edition of the Rob dimml
shows the years deep right field and he's got again.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
First hitting home brought last night for Devers, we Freeland depers,
Freeland took exception to Debt Berns and we're gonna at
both bitches empty.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Kyle Farker's getting in there and now here's Rob Dibble.
I mean Kyle Freeman. Freeland's got no beef here going
after Rockfield. First of all, Raffie, who had been not
swinging the batwell was player of the week way last week. Yes,
(00:44):
a lot of people didn't know. I mean Schwarber Endeavors
were given co players of the week for what they
did last week. Uh and in the National League, I
forget who did it in the American League. But he hits,
He hits the first inning home run off of Kyle Freeland.
Kyle Freeland is there and fourteen.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
People I didn't know he had three. Yeah, man, he's got.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
He's three and fourteen.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
With a five loss last night for the Rocky.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
A five and a half. Era has just been awful
all year. And then after the game has the nerve
after he starts this whole like not brawl but basically
a dance off in front of the mound bench is clear.
It's like there's nobody even in the stands. This wasn't
even a good local like WWE event, you know, one
(01:28):
of the lower level events. This is just a bad,
bad night for the Rockies all together. And then after
the game, Kyle Frielan goes off and he's like, I
can't believe he disrespected me like that, Like what, like
what he watched his home run because he hit it
so damn far he you know, most guys, honestly, it
wasn't a big bat flip or anything. It was just
he took his time, which anybody who knows him, he
(01:51):
doesn't hustle the first anyway on a ball. Back to
the picture in the first base, so I just think that, listen,
this isn't a way over reaction to your frustration of
having an awful year, and you took it out on Devers.
So now Devers doesn't even get the first base. You
start screaming at him. You're screaming it HiT's what's Dever
supposed to do? So Devers turns in with a mouthful
(02:13):
of goo in his I don't even know what Devers
tried to say Freeland just kept what I like that
Matt Chapman was was on Freeland's back so quick to
make sure you're not even going to take another step
towards Devers until I body slam you. And it was
over before it started. But it's one of those things.
(02:35):
It's embarrassing for Kyle freelan in the Rockies having an
atrocious season. Like you said, you got your hundredth loss,
your one hundredth loss in what one hundred and thirty
nine games. It's a despicable season. The management should be
fired some of these players. You can't fire them, but
they should be sent packing and sent down to the
(02:56):
minor leagues. And this guy should be sent packing as well.
Kyle Freeland three and fourteen with a five four ERA,
and you're bitching and moaning that someone's being too You've
disrespected pitching, my friend. You're disrespectful to the game. Maybe
not ever right the whole Colorado Rockies. And you know
I got friends in Colorado.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
I should ask them what the cheap seats are, like,
what the specials are?
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Public?
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Should center field should be free?
Speaker 1 (03:22):
And yeah, you should be like you want to go
sit in center field?
Speaker 4 (03:25):
Go sit in centerf It's wild to listen to that
low light. I don't want to call it a highlight.
I guess to be a highlight for Devers. There's nobody there, nobody.
You can almost hear them talking to each other as
they're on the field. You can definitely hear a lot
of the talk next to the microphones that were from
like the stands, just because it's one or two people that.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I'm looking at the highlight right now. The lower bowl
is just so sparse with people. As Devs is jogging
to first it's there's nobody. As he gets towards first base,
there's nobody in the stands, nobody there there. So of
course if I'm Devers, I can hear every word out
of your mouth. The best thing was after Logan Webb's
(04:08):
quote was well, yeah, Freeland runs his mouth a lot.
I'm surprised that this didn't happen earlier. I can't believe
he says that. I know, I know it's Freeland, but
you don't really I tell you what, Logan, Logan Web's
a monster, but he's ready for this. Then Willia Domas
goes bananas. I mean, there's here's the thing. Once you
start this. You don't know what psychopath is going to
(04:30):
run around and start smacking people. That's the one thing
about opening this up, opening this door up on a
brawl that guys are running in from the bullpen. They
don't want to do that. Guys are coming out of
the training room looking for trouble because they don't even
know what's going on. My wife asked me about this
picture she's got at home of me being choked at
the bottom of the pilace. She said, what happened? I said, well,
(04:51):
Reggie Sanders took about ten steps towards the mound, Glenn
Braggs and I jumped the little fence there at Riverfront
and sprint out like you know, cause we're going down
the stairs. We don't even know what really happened. So
we go after Pete Harnish, we go after the Astros.
We hate the Astros anyway, and I find myself at
the bottom of the pile getting choked to death. I mean, so,
(05:12):
you don't know what's going to happen once you take
that step to defend your teammates, or once you take
that step like Freeland going after Devers. You know, listen,
giants still have a chance to go to the playoffs.
They're playing really well right now. They've got I think
they've got like eighth or seventh easiest schedule the rest
of the way. I know that Yankees have the tenth
(05:32):
easiest schedule the rest of the way. Some of these
teams are going to the postseason. You don't want one
of your best players to get hurt because some other
guys offended by you watching a home run.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
We did have some winning baseball in this area last night.
Red Sox win. They keep on putting runs on the board.
Yankees win, they keep putting runs on the board. New
York Matt's put a lot of runs on the board.
But this picture man, Noah McLain is on Faya. He's
won his first four starts.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Is he solid?
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Era has been spectacular. He's been striking him out. He's
got a lot of different movement. You brought this up
his last start. He has been saving that Mets rotation
and that bullpen big time when they need it. Did
against the Tigers last night. They're already on the field.
It's a two to three ball game, top of the seventh.
Tigers up on the Mets right now. But last night's
Wining that pitching performance for him was spectacular. And then
(06:22):
for the New York Yankees, not only Max Freed, Paul Blackburn,
this dude looked all right, like Max Freed gonna be
a solid ace for them, or it needs to be
a solid ace for them every.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Time out from here on out. And I thought that
was a very good game for them. Chisholm, See, here's
the problem, Chishm swinging a great bat. Shut your mouth.
He's hot, right yeah, but he's like, we're we know
we're a great team right now. Why would you put
that out there. Just keep doing what you're supposed to do,
keep hitting, go towards the postseason. It's right now, it's
(06:56):
a neck and neck race between you and the Red Sox.
Red Sox finished that game before you closed out your game.
Mets were in the process of dismantling the Tigers' pitching
staff until today. I think they got mice today and
that's why they they haven't scored a bunch of runs
because they actually got a real Tigers pitcher in there.
But listen, there's no reason for Jazz Chisholm to stir
(07:17):
things up right now. The Yankees are just they're getting
there doing their thing. Freed pitched. I think seven strong
innings last night. You did the job last night. Don't
don't get anybody going because listen right now, the Red
Sox are unbelievable. The Red Sox had a five to
one lead, and then I'm watching this game live and
Crochet just decides to give up three home runs, six
(07:38):
runs in one inning. The guys, he's he's gonna be
up for the Cy Young at the end of the year.
He's having a great season. His team comes right back.
Rafaela in the bottom half of that inning where they
lose the lead seven to five, hits a two run
home run. They tie the game right back up. Their
bullpen does a great job, and then they blow it
open in the ninth inning. I think they got five
(07:59):
runs in the ninth inning and they blew that game open.
But their hitters are on fire. Trevor's story is on fire.
Everybody's playing well. Here's the thing they didn't need. Roman
Anthony got hurt and maybe done for the season. Took
It was a good pitch by the pitcher for the Guardians.
It was a change up. He swung through it. Immediately
(08:22):
after he strikes out and he was two for three
when he grabs his right side and you knew that
I was bad. He went right down the steps and
it was over. And so he is listed four to
six weeks. Hopefully he'll be back sooner. But listen, with
an oblique you're resting it first because it's like a
pull on your side. Then you got to take a
(08:44):
week to get back. By the time he gets back.
Now that we're into September, Minor league baseball's over, there's nowhere.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
To go rehab.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
You're not going on rehab because there's season ends in
the next couple of weeks by the time he comes back,
so that now they basically could do what they want.
But you need this guy for the postseason. You're not
winning without Roman Anthony in your lineup in the postseason.
I don't care who you think you could stick in there,
and I don't care how hot the pitchers are, you're
gonna run into some really good pitchers, which Roman Anthony
(09:14):
has shown that he can hit the lefties, he can
hit the tough guys. So that's an injury they didn't need.
But man, they were clutch. That was a clutch game.
The Mets. What they did last night was clutch. They
continue to do some clutch stuff, so.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Annings when they get on rolls Man, especially the last
couple of nights.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Well, we talked about this yesterday and I don't even
call it hot. This is what Soto does. This is
what you pay him to do. Hit good pitching, hit
the bullpens, come back in some games and have some
meaningful hits in these meaningful games. That's what we need
you for. Trevor Story. We paid you a boatload of
money to do what you're doing. Bregman, same thing. We're
paying you a boatload of money. Chapman. You got Chapman up,
(09:51):
You scored five runs. It wasn't a safe situation. We
didn't need to throw you three days in a row.
Sit the hell back down. We'll bring somebody else in
to finish this game off. I mean, what some of
these teams are doing right now is trying to get
as healthy as possible. But at the same time, a
lot of these teams are losing players to injury, and
it's just like, listen, you got three weeks left and
(10:12):
then we start the postseason. I mean, it's going to
be interesting in a lot of these wildcard races and
a lot of these just trying to track down the
division winners. Toronto Blue Jays came back and won that
game against the Reds. It was up and they were
you know, Red's got close and then they pulled out.
I think George Springer had a couple of home runs
in that game. So I think that there's a lot
of things going on that guys are starting to know
(10:34):
that there's another season and that's called the postseason, and
they've stepped up their game.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
We have got twenty four, twenty five, twenty eight, about
twenty nine hours to the NFL football season, Dallas Cowboys
take on the Philadelphia Eagles.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
We're out and about now.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Henry and Alex from the Rob Doubles Show are out
at Bobby V's as we speak, testing our lines, making
sure everything's tip top. Bud Light and Dem Boys are
sent us out to Bobby V's tomorrow to celebrate the
start of the season. We want you to be there
as well. We're doing those show live from Bobby V's.
I don't know how many This Probabor twentieth Anniversary show
at Bobby Ve's one of my favorite places, one of
(11:12):
Dibb's favorite places. It's gonna be a lot of fun. Obviously,
they've got all the TVs, all the gambling that you
can do.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
And Winner's putting odds on people if they could beat
us in cornhole.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
I have to call Lucky Lou and see if that
number has been posted yet. But yes, we will have
some cornhole there, sponsored by bud Light, and if you
beat us in cornhole, you will take home some prizes.
We also have some bashing Man Scalco tickets out there
and some Mike del Judas tickets out there, so plenty
of things for you guys to win.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
But yeah, there is a football game.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Everybody's looking at your cowboys like they're done done.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
You're looking at them like they're done done.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
And I don't know if I could buy a Packers jersey.
First of all, he changed his number to one. Did
you have an Eddie Lacy? I have a Lacey one.
I have Aaron Rodgers one, but it's an ugly green man.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
It's tough to wear.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
That's a rough run unless it's like part Star on.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
There, right, I mean Saint Patrick's Day.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I'm like man's.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
St Patrick's Day. I don't think you bust out they call.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
That Kelly Green or is that not even Kelly Green?
I mean, that's just a tough I keep looking at
do I want like they have a third alternate jersey
that's like a purplish brown that I'm thinking about maybe, Oh,
I know the one, you know what I'm talking about.
And the Rogers one, by the way, is a white
away jersey, so that's not even that green.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Well, now Parsons is dropping a one. He's just going
to one instead of eleven. So that's a unique thing
for a Parsons jersey right now. I will give props
to my man Steve, who I caught out there at
the tailgate. He was my tailgate interview for Yukon CCSU,
loud and proud with his Parsons Cowboy jersey.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Oh, I had it on for my fantasy draft. I'm all,
my guy. I'm like, hey man, it is what it is.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
You like the guy? Listen.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
He's gonna have a good year. But I'm not selling
the cow Boys down the road yet. I think the
offense is still tip top. Like, I think the offense
is gonna be better this year than it was last year.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
If Pickens can be a good old.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Well, he's on my fantasy team too, So I'm hoping
he's like my wide receiver three, maybe my flex guy.
So I hope you gets some good point.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
If he can walk the line like a Johnny Cash
reference for you, If he can walk the line and
be a good boy and learn from CD, learn from Dak,
Dak can teach you some things. Man, He's been in
the league for a long time. Coach Schottenheimer, I'm excited
to see what kind of offense.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
I love your tight end.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
I think that Ferguson guy is one of the best
good I don't think they're gonna have a problem scoring.
I think the problem is back the end of that defense,
back end of that defense, and the reason the back
ends even more so now is because you don't have
the pass rusher. Yeah, Michael Parsons like is one of
the best pass rushers, but when it comes like run defense,
(13:54):
I don't think he is the biggest cog in the
machine of stopping Saquon Barkley.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
I'm with you.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
I think he's a bigger cogging the machine of getting
the time in the pocket to be as less as possible.
Like when Michael Parsons is out there on the edge,
you have to have Saquan to know about him for
that potential block. Jalen Hurts is gonna have to know
about him. But now that he's not there, that extra
half second to look around is so valuable for Jalen
(14:21):
Hurts in their passing offense. Trey Diggs, what about him?
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Man? Expecting him to be a player this year?
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Right, Like, doesn't hurt man, if you can stay health.
It's it's all about health at the Cowboys. Dak Prescott
keeps getting hurt. This guy gets hurt. It's like, you know,
Jerry's bitching about Michael Parsons and I'm like, what about
the guy was sitting in your box all year? That
Dak guy? Whatever happened to Dak's got this. I mean,
it's just help. Yeah, he health. Health is a huge
thing with the Dallas Cowboys. So I just pray for
(14:48):
their health and then then then give yourself a chance,
give yourself an opportunity. But listen to the Eagles are
gonna be tough. Commander is gonna be tough. Giants are
gonna be tough. And I know in the next hour
we're gonna go over our preseason picks. Yeah, some of
these teams that we're looking at are in the AFC
East or NFC excuse me, NFC East, and I think
it's the Eagles to lose. I think the Eagles are
(15:10):
one of the best teams in football and are gonna
be for a while. Well, I mean one of the
things is not on our list. Would you agree or
disagree that that? Let's say, offensively, Saquon Barkley is the
best player in the league.
Speaker 4 (15:23):
I don't understand why fantasy drafts don't have this dude
penciled in at number one. I'm here, dy M close,
Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson, Are you're one and two? Like
all the youngsters as wide receivers as we say that,
like all the youngsters are going wide receiver. All the
fantasy drafts that I know do not even mention Saquon
as your top four picks.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Dude doesn't touchdown a game. Dude's gonna get the ball
fifteen times.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
He's gonna rush for close to two thousand yards.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
He may have more catches than all those receivers in
Week one. Like, I don't understand why people are still like, ah,
you know, he's the best in football, But I don't
want that right now, I'm gonna I'm gonna roll the
dice on something else.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
I think Saquan is the most set it and forget
it guy.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
When it comes to your fantasy team, and especially for
that Philadelphia Eagle offense, they'll probably be working on a
lot more that doesn't involve Saquon because they know that
part's good.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
I just don't understand. I still think there's this stigma
about running backs, possibly like there's like they're gonna be
like your fifth or sixth, seventh round. That's when the
running backs of my league were going or injury.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Me.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
I took Derrick Henry very early. I couldn't get Saquon
because he went quickly. But other than that, some of
the other running backs were still around in the fifth
and sixth round because I don't think a lot of
people care about running Though.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
We mord Is team coming off as Super Bowl. For me,
Jalen Hurts is not.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Still getting no respect. The Chiefs Dynasty Chiefs have their
own like show The Kingdom.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
I still like how they use Jalen Hurts as not
talking as a part of his like ego in commercials.
I forget which one he's just doing where he doesn't say,
you know, I.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Don't say much because that's part of my game. I
love that guy. Great. He is the quarterback you want.
He is, you know, so never used to.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Talk Doug Williams. You go back to Doug Williams when
I was younger. That cat was the cool He was
like shaft. I was like, this is this guy's like
a superhero man. He is like a crime fighter.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
That is so And you imagine Jalen in a dark turtleneck.
He should be like an action guy busting your door down.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
And I don't think he wants to, like like in
his mind, I don't need that, you know, I kind
of cringe stuff. You know the way the kids talk
and it's like, no, dude, why don't you just like
show up? And what it was? The expendables, Like what
are they? Unexpendable?
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Eight?
Speaker 1 (17:39):
I mean being one of those stupid expendable movies that
anybody could be in him and and you don't have
to say anything.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Thirty does and he should be the Jim Brown character and.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
You look like ramp Page Jackson in the A Team.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
He does.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Just be in it and be all yoked up. Maybe
get Saquon in there like saus in a new commercial
where he's like a falotfer. He's like, really Wyatt and
and it's like, you know, but at least he's talking.
He's like, so Jalen hurts. His persona is I don't
(18:12):
talk right? Persona is everybody comes to him to solve
their problems. True?
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Yeah, yet yeah, And I don't want to have a
good running back right exactly. It's so mind blowing to me.
I think they're not a.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Good head coach. We still want to fire him?
Speaker 3 (18:28):
Are the Eagles?
Speaker 4 (18:29):
In my estimation, when it comes to repeating in this league,
it is so difficult. And I know the Kansas City
Chiefs have been there and done that in the last
AFC what seven straight AFC championships something like that, And
I understand all that, but I just feel like the
Eagles have everything set up to repeat right now, especially
with the neighborhood they're living in. I mean, washing him
might have something to say about it, but still they
(18:50):
they look head and shoulders as the best football team
going into the season.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
I won't bug South Pale this week, but next week
we'll get South pal on.
Speaker 4 (18:57):
We'll ask him about's wait till the Times are bad
in Philly, that's the best salpal.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
When times are good, it's like God, he.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
Can barely get anything out of him because he's got
a martini in his hand, and he's like.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
Hey, come what do you Come on, we'll hike it
and we'll win.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
What do you uh? Why are you even questioning me?
Speaker 4 (19:16):
And when they're losing, oh, Soal's got a lot to say.
