Dan & Leila fire back at Edmonds' comments on Morel home run celebration | Bernstein & Holmes

perfectly fine television playby playay call you should hear what the opposing Booth sounded like because there was I I will bother Cardinals fans when I describe him as former Cub Jim Edmonds but this was Bal Sports Midwest after morell's second home run so the Cubs exacting some revenge and they're going to have back-to-back homers again Morel hits one deep into the seats he's got a two Homer game this kid celebration is a joke I don't mind saying it at all I've never seen anything like it I just don't get it you're a 229 hitter in the big leagues and you're running around like you're Barry [Applause] Bonds first of all cuz if there was an ERA Jim Edmonds certainly didn't play in couldn't have been during that time now first of all the idea of 229 hitter do you know what the league average is I'd say it's probably 225 243 is League average right now so big deal this whole he's a 229 hitter he's got 18 home runs now I also will say Jim Edmonds was a great baseball player yeah I know people here know him as the Cardinal because that's what he was for the majority of his career but also for a significant amount of years I knew him as a noted Ranger killer on the Angels yes very much so when he stepped up to the plate you were not looking forward to the result no he was he was a legitimately great baseball player and he was indeed a cub and a good cub in ' 08 however Jim I don't want to hear it from you I don't want to hear it from the of eyewash I don't want to hear it from a guy who would go out of his way to make sure at the end of that catch instead of flagging it down with his feet on the ground that there was every opportunity to stretch out and dive maybe slow up a little bit then speed up a little bit come on now nobody liked to play look at me baseball more than Jim Edmonds so please and come on man let me was he saying that also about PCA yeah that's a good question that's what I'd like to know because pca's got good question PCA we've said this before when we created the Persona of Pedro braso uh quvo braso ferte Pete Crow Armstrong that if it were Pedro quvo braso ferte would we look at it differently that was calling me out I was called out for that saying you're only saying that because he looks like he looks and yet I'm wondering about about was Jim Edmonds mad at another swaggy swaggy center fielder well Edmonds was one of those additionally isn't there a whole bit going on with the Cubs right now that they're trying to bring back the dab yes the first guy I saw was Nico yeah and then ni was mocking himself bringing back the dab that's another thing I want to ask anap about is this dab business when we we caught the dab last week um I I not I actually first noticed Dansby do it and it was the same game uh it was before Nico did it and then Nico did it Dansby you need a dab break up the Mojo a little bit I like it have some fun out there whatever works man so wasn't but wasn't that part of it was the dab during the and that's an inside joke that is is represented it's just like anything else that hitters do if they want to do some sort of hand signal or something that's been going on for a long time and the Cubs have had their own iteration of that even season everybody wanted to know they were doing one that was I don't know turn up the dial or I don't know what that was Always Something There was squeezing lemons one year remember that oh yeah but it's also funnier because they're making fun of themselves bringing back the dab which is largely panned is not in style anymore like that's funny it's a little irreverent isn't it I agree Dan what are your thoughts on dabbing Co hey man if it means the Cubs are on base I don't care what you do but here's my other I don't care if you pull your pants down I'm just glad you got a hit here's my other question about this what is the real Sin here nothing like step two of this is what you want him to go back to home plate and just put his head down and like trudge along the base pass like what what's the punishment exactly yeah like when you decide that you want to be baseball police what's baseball jail I need to know the second step of this do you then apologize with a big gesture because I have a feeling that would be dismissed oh well that's not really what I meant well we need to ask baseball Police Commissioner Tony larusa he's in charge of all these things who's the hierarchy here like I need to know in which uh you know officer line does this go like is Jim Edmonds a sergeant is he a lieutenant like how how's the how does this happen here he's certainly bidding for for a promotion in the baseball police rankings obviously Tony larusa while still extant I believe is is the commissioner of the baseball I thought he was like Supreme Court oh maybe he's like the Emperor Palpatine I don't I don't even know what kind of system the baseball Police use I don't either but I feel like Palpatine would be uh especially with recent versions of him I feel like that might be a very accurate comp the 630 Notes too that after he said that he also went on and made fun of the fat dude in the stands who caught the two homers but that's okay he's taking up a lot of space out there isn't it worse if you're a former player to call out a player who's currently on the field than it is to mock an innocent person in the stands and if Christopher Morell who's paying to be there and morell's too nice and fun to ever do something like this but like if you wanted to roast Jim Edmonds for some stuff he could right was it wasn't he the guy that was involved in the Bizarre Love Triangle to quote New Order I'm sorry but athlete relationships are just not news to me yeah news news implies being novel and noteworthy so that's why I tend to stay away from it what the untidiness Common Place practices in an industry are not exactly breaking like us using microphones per se so I just don't really I don't deal in such but when it comes to baseball police I just would like to know what's the what if there is a sentence what is the appropriate sentence for you self-appointed judge and jury you know what I used to ask that about too that always bothered me was this idea that after a bad game or a bad day or a bad loss that someone's like yeah that guy was out at dinner that night and that would be some sort of he's eating right he went out with his family and they had a Stak better not be vegan though that means that your career is down the tubes right I but I I always wondered like what do you want that player to do should that player Don a hair shirt and and and sit in Penance and and and have a mortification of the Flesh and tighten his celise belt again what's the sentence beat himself until he's back bleeds and flagellate I mean what really do what would make you happy also what was the score at the time of that home run he hit a home run he's a very very happy young guy and everybody who knows Christopher Morell knows he's not posing he's just happy but addition well I mean the dab is indeed a pose but it's also out of style so you're making fun of yourself which is a joke and that is self-aware and therefore should be accepted by baseball police judges and whatever Triumph it here's the other thing though what was the score of that 7 to3 at the time at that point when he hit that home run it was 4 to2 4 to2 okay like he going to get a fast ball his ear he's going to be looking at the sky come on man but but who typically complains about these things losers you complain when you're losing 630 Star Wars Episode X opening crawl Jim Edmonds has lashed out at Christopher Morell and some fat guy in St Louis the resistance is in champ but like who's you you're usually see the score I had is 7 to3 but usually you're complaining when you're losing am I right so losers complain about this like last year when it was uh what's his name the other Cardinals analyst who used to work with Roni on the radio station in St Louis and he's like have a feel for the game why are you complaining there you know however I sometimes you hear it and my guess is and this is just listening and and having seen the full body of work of Jim Edmonds that even if he would do it especially if Morel hit it to like cut a a 51 deficit to a 5-2 deficit I guarantee you if Edmonds had it in his mind to say something he'd be like you're still losing what are you doing why are you celebrating a home run you check the scoreboard he would use it that way as well oh that's right noted TW
