episode of the Halos in the infield postgame show I'm your host Todd Fox on the only place where you can get real baseball talk by real Baseball fans and you could share your uh opinions your comments your concerns your anger uh with this baseball team as we move forward on a Saturday afternoon I hope all is well I am still recovering I'm I'm much much better after the kidney stones pass through obviously but uh as we get it started we're GNA talk about uh our closer maybe uh you know after the debacle yesterday Ron Washington says hold my beard the rest of the staff says hold my beard uh again uh you are insane if you think that the problems are solely pitching responsible I I I I will go to bat I will die on that Hill any cliche you want to use I am not going to blame the pitching I mean I I you know my dad was out there saying Carson Fulmer give up those runs early in the game who cares who cares you literally had nine innings to respond to two runs and even then you gave up one run more that's only three runs but three runs is like 10 runs to this team and again Bowden who in Anaheim on the 12th of this month just six days uh or uh yeah 12 uh what is it 12 days ago or so 13 days ago he faced the angels and he went seven Innings one run one hit baseball eight strikeouts he Then followed that performance with a one- nothing victory over the Chicago Cubs with one uh seven Innings pitched three hits Allowed no runs seven strikeouts now previous to his angels gift that we gave him on Monday 812 of this month he had gotten rocked by Baltimore five innings well not really rocked but he gave up three runs took the loss um to Baltimore then he Lo he got a no decision he only pitched a third I think that might have been a rain delay and then in Baltimore uh he took a loss um or actually got a win five and two3 three runs six hits so he's not been exactly bad in over a month he's only allowed six runs and today I mean the Angels were like Bowden Bowden Francis a guy who has been up and down all season just like the Jays uh he's got a four er still you know so it's not like this dude has been killing it all season but recently in the last month you could say he's had a really hot end of July early August or or really good August but he gets the he gets the win and again a guy I've talked about on here many many many many many many many of times Carson Fulmer would would be a very nice mid relief long relief pitcher and again Ron Washington with his dumbass you know hey let's start off with a with a u opener you know stuff like that that doesn't work a guy like Carson Fulmer who we've had to throw in there because of multiple injuries to our starting pitching staff has been having to pitch as a starter he's 0 and five but you see what he did tonight six Innings pitched two runs and seven hits he's sporting currently a 450 erra he had a two something erra as a relever I mean what has he done in his last few starts I mean listen for a guy who supposedly a mid reliever the end of July and into August here he has surrendered three runs two runs two runs five runs and three runs I mean again that is not going to blow you away as far as well that's the Ace of our staff but that's a guy who's at least giving you some Innings and keeping you in ball games so again blame doesn't go to him does the blame go to the defense maybe had two airs more airs than hits you got one hit and big ears Dumbo hit a useless home run in the ninth inning but what caused the loss today well I did some digging I get tired of thinking you know it's or or saying it's the analytics it's the saber metrics and granted I'm not no detective I only play one on my crime podcast but I did some digging and it wasn't hard to find and I'm like why didn't I do this earlier why didn't I look up and have a name to the putrid nerds that are screwing up your team and my team the angels and I found somebody I found somebody and his name and you could find him on LinkedIn and you could find him on X you could find him on other social media platforms and you can even find him on the Angels baseball website his name is Jake saberman and boy does he look every bit of a nerd that you could think of picture Revenge of the Nerds and this guy could be starring in it so he comes from Indiana University he has only a thousand followers on LinkedIn and he's worked with the angels three years and eight months he is the coordinator of baseball analyst analysist or Analytics he that is his uh he came from global ogc global data analyst out of Boston Massachusetts for four months he attended Indiana University as lead baseball and R&D analyst he was an intern get this he was an intern before he graduated college so he's still in college during the pandemic working for the angels as an intern here's here's he worked for four months between January 2020 to April 2020 designed a databased model to determine when exactly an intentional walk should be issued built a Tracker to find the roster status of any professional player in history using SQL what the fuck is that I have no idea assisted in video scouting and amateur draft prospects so again this guy is only a pencil Pusher never played the game and he's in he's got some creation and some analytic tools and has provided scouting privileges interesting right utiliz machine learning algorithms to are to create an internal expected weighted on base average what does that mean that means means he's just fucking with numbers to make things look apparently smart or himself look smarter his internship was cancelled due early to covid-19 impact before that he was the co-founder and editor and chief of red and black which was in the uh greater Boston area which provided quality exposure to coverage of every Northeastern University athletic program he also was a baseball analyst list at Northeastern University from 2019 to December 19 as well four months he he helped the northeastern baseball's analytics initiative design Advanced tracking because you know whenever I think baseball especially college baseball I think Northeastern University also he is a co-founder of podcast host of baseball seams which is he ran that awesome podcast for a year founded baseball blog dedicated to deep statistical Dives in saber metrics this idiot is who is running your team and my team by the way he also ran a weekly news article from November 2016 to December 2018 get this as a Red Sox fan it was called bow Sox injection see what he did there nerd also business planning analyst co-op in Texas he's been around a little bit and also he was a sales representative in 2017 for those Boston Red Sox H so we have a Red Sox guy out here running our coordination if you want to find him on X let's see where where his X is I have that up here too uh his medium his website check this out he's so popular he has 11 followers if you want to go to his ex he's got only about what is it I think 900 followers I want to make sure I can find this right Jake saour bomb I was doing a deep dive on this guy just to see what a clown he is he's not only a freaking clown he's a he's a freaking nerd and a nerd with not even just look at his goddamn picture he makes I make fun of you know I make fun of big ears all the time this guy is is he's giving him a run for his money let's just be honest Jake SAU bomb where I just had his ex pulled up here in a minute uh for a second here hold on here oh yeah so saour bomb's following a thousand people he's got 236 followers why am I clowning on him for his followers you would think was somebody in a high position because like it or not analytics is a high position especially in a baseball team a baseball franchise you would think you would think you would have multiple people wanting to get a hold of you multiple people wanting to interview you multiple people wanting to get to know why you do the things you do and come up with the numbers that you do no nobody knows of this guy you have to actually look and really hard to find him you think that he wants to be responsible or he wants to stick his goofy little head out there with the way that this team is hitting this guy is coming again i' I've explained saber metrics and analytics it is all up to the person creating them there is no Bible for analytics or saber metrics it's all made up it all comes to the Creator he has a team underneath him that works on these numbers to tell Ron Washington and also our boy who just got extended what who to use when why and how and multi I guarant dog to you it goes against most of what Ron Washington knows as a baseball manager and I would love to pick his brain or ask Ron Hey off the Record do you agree with what's coming down from upstairs is this how you manage because track records sir shows different you come under this Angel's umbrella you come under Jake sourman Sabin or however the hell you say his name saberman Mr Indiana University Mr Boston Red Sox lover Mr I come up with just you know saber metrics out my ass I write my own script and then write it for you to follow I'm the producer of this show does that bother you Ron does does that bother you that you're not only handcuffed by your goddamn owner you're handcuffed by your GM you're handcuffed by nerds who can't even throw a I bet you he throws like a girl and no offense to women because they've gotten much better over the years but that was a term goddamn it that we used to use years ago to make fun of other males so don't cancel me for saying you throw like a girl but yes this guy this turd throws like a girl so I I I I'm sick of it and and now you know now there's a face and a name to the shit show that we watch every game you can't tell me as good as I gave you the numbers for B bow and Francis that this is a guy who should be routinely coming out here and making us look bad and then I can't stand Gooby talking to Erica Weston's eye today when you have on the post game Gooby saying well sometimes you just got to tip your hat sometimes you just got to tip your cap to the other team I'm tired of tipping my cap to the other team because I get it every team in this league will face a dominant pitcher and maybe that pitcher is for the Pittsburgh Pirates and Paul sches or maybe it's from from the freaking Miami Marlins and a guy's just having a red hot night and you can't hit him and that's when you tip your cap to him but when it's routinely night in and night out we should not be tipping our cap to the opponent no the opponent should be tipping their cap to us because whatever the they should be like hey man I really appreciate your bad approaches at the plate tonight I really appreciate the fact that you're following saber metrics and analytics that aren't part of the that shouldn't be part of the game I really appreciate the fact that you don't follow traditional baseball skills or approaches at the plate I really appreciate the fact you're overly aggressive when you don't have to be and then we still get fans out there saying well the Umpire squeezed I don't look at it that way I'm tired I don't blame the ums anymore you're going to have bad nights where the umps are just against you New York is against you all that mattered when this team was actually in the race none of that matters anymore and you could choose to to still be upset by that I don't like when Grill Master says well this this uh this umpire has the worst balls to strike I don't care like at this point in the season it doesn't doesn't matter to me again it was all about progression about being better getting better right and and starting to look towards next season who are we gonna keep who are we goingon to cut blah blah blah no let's just play useless guys like jury because Jake says it's so Jake from State Farm says yes I like jury at that spot yes I like randone batting fourth yes even though polar doesn't hit good in cleanup he should be batting down in the lineup like Ron hadam let's spat him third and watch him get the golden Sombrero perfect yes let's be aggressive be be aggressive says Jake from State Farm it it doesn't it again that kind of stuff again if you're if you're winning if you're in the race umpires matter all that other stuff matters but no we were just wins and losses didn't matter at this point a lot of you fans are saying I want a top five pick let's keep losing let's keep rolling out there okay I'm okay with that too I just from the beginning of the Season wasn't expecting postseason I just wanted to see competitive baseball and I feel that Barry enri and whoever is helping out these the pitching staff has given us competitive baseball most nights again you're gonna have nights where things don't work out and then you're GNA have a night like last night where a move here or a move there wins you the game obviously the stupid ass move was to utilize catras you could have went another in with caha have him set him up or even gone with Matt Moore and then finish it off with Ben Joyce the fact you did not trust the guy you anointed closer to be the closer with not he didn't pitch the night before so you couldn't use the Mimi's excuse he was fully rested that's on you Ron you screwed up Ron you've screwed up a lot this year you haven't listened to yourself you haven't tooken control you've been just as much a puppet as Perry minassian there I said it because I've been sugar coating Ron Washington all year Perry Perry manassian has been getting a little bit of My Guff lately and more and more rightfully so but no Ron Washington's been Teflon until yesterday yesterday was the last straw because I see the writing on the wall I've been too M too apathetic to not realize or myopic to to realize that dude you know what he is responsible for this crap too because he's letting it happen and where is he arguing like Dan and others have said where's he sticking up for his players I don't see that either I pushed by all that all those red flags were popping up like a bad girlfriend I'm ignoring it but no yesterday and then today finding out that we got this geek squad leader leading this squad for over four years and I can remember 2019 2018 this lineup wasn't that bad this lineup wasn't that bad it was always well canny pitch when we would get a hitter right we had decent enough hitting when did our hitting start to really fall off the year that didn't count covid you can kind of say a little bit there but 2021 two three and four the hitting's been bad news ever since and we've gone and we've blamed the hitting instructors which rightfully so Paul Sereno was a terrible hitter should never have been in charge of our hitters Jeremy Reid was an average for a guy should have never been in charge of our hitters Marcus themes spent time in Japan was a strikeout King should have never been in charge of our hitters then we get Johnny Washington not much Major League experience only there because his father's a manager shouldn't be in control of our hitting in uh hitting shouldn't be a hitting instructor right give me a rod Karu player give me a Darren arstad Garr Garrett Anderson Tim salmon down the line guys who hit above their weight guys who were perennial Allstars hell if you have to go to another franchise and give me another hitter that was great like if Fred McGriff was available and wanted to be a hitting instructor give me Fred McGriff and down the line he doesn't have to be an angel just give me someone that is going to be looked up to by these players because they know what kind of career he has because believe it or not that matters that matters to a baseball player if you know you have a guy who was in the trenches who knows how to play baseball's been there in the biggest of moments been there in the highest of highs lowest of lows you you respect that automatically he gets your respect and when he's trying to teach you and tell you hey you're a dumbass you're not doing this right you're not going to get your ego won't flare up as much and you'll realize this guy's telling me for a reason because he knows do you think any of those hitters over the years looked at Ron Wasing or not Ron Washington looked at Paul Sereno Jeremy Reed when they're not playing Pokemon or eating nachos that those guys were respectable players back in their day no because anyone could can go to the wikipedias can go to baseball references and look at how many strikeouts those dumb asses had same thing with Marcus Thames and you saw last year when Shani would hit that home run and you had dumbass number six injured sitting next to Marcus themes they were both stand sitting right there they wanted to give Otani dabs and he straight up walked right by him ignored him and they did those little sarcastic little smiles and looked at each other like what a dick to Otani and yes Otani is a dick because he's a dodger but at that moment he wasn't because he was ignoring two dumb asses who don't respect the game and were never any good except number six's magical contract year he knew what kind of pieces of garbage they were as teammates so why would you dab pieces of garbage like that my point being is who you hire to run your organization to lead your organization makes a huge difference if you give them the right tool RS makes a huge difference if you allow them to do what they're supposed to do and trust them makes a huge difference Arty doesn't do any any of those he doesn't hire the right people the people that are in place he doesn't give complete control to and he's always got some sort of some sort of hierarchy over every position over every person running meaning there isn't someone built for the job to to do what they do to answer to no one to make the risky rules to where you're not judged unless The Season's a complete crap failure or when the season's over everyone gets their report cards or if they're going to be resigned re-up or fired we're not even letting that that process play out or or marinate because we're too busy watching everything that everybody does and they have to stick to so again they are changing things up on the they are deciding that hey saber metric is a way to go and then this is what you get tonight another bad performance and again what how how does Jake SAU Burman or however the hell you say his name keep his job after this year this will be four years in a row that you've had a nept offense because of your saber metric analytics bullshit you came from Indiana University you had Northeastern College Northeastern College again if this dude is coming from what Tennessee Volunteers they won the they won the College World Series or Texas A&M or one of these big schools that's parentally in the world College World Series and they're beating teams and are always good as much as I don't like saber metrics as much as I don't like analytics I'd say well let's take a look at this guy he's applying for the job let's see what he can do I'm not taking everything he says as word but I'll be like okay well let's see if this pans out right here and here we'll give him a shot in certain situations during the game we'll we'll look at his stats we'll look at his stuff and say okay let's see if we can apply this to the game let's see if this works right here but I'm a conventionalist like like I'm I'm more of a conservatist when it comes to baseball I'm not looking outside the box I'm looking to stay within the wheel that was invented because it's worked since day one and yes if I if there's a Nuance there I'll try it but if I'm going to make it gospel hell no I'm still going to stick to the fundamentals I'm still going to stick to what has worked over the years what has brought championships to other organizations and hopefully this one so my whole thing would be let's use his data but if I don't like it get the fuck out of here you know what I mean like like I'm not going to use it but if it comes up during the seventh inning and it works okay more praise to you it's not going to work every time just like my decisions wouldn't work every time either but the thing is you go down knowing that you worked with what you could and you tried everything that you could and I don't think at the end of the day Ron Washington can look me in the eye and even Erica Weston's eye with a straight face and tell me hey man I trusted everything that that guy did I did everything I possibly could for the Angels I I made it my point to be the strongest manager and I can go down with a 90 loss 100 loss season knowing that I tried my hardest and this team tried its hardest he can't do that he can't he can't tell you that he that he would accept losing a season like this with the way he went about managing it with the way that he accepted the BS from the analytics Department from the roster moves everything you that is a bold face lie it would be as more I would trust Rafael Palo Moore when he was in front of the Senate and he said I did not take steroids and it was a clear lie right I would trust Rafael pomero more than Ron Washington it's sad and it's pathetic but yes please do your homework look up Jake sabron SAU Burman whatever the hell is stupid name is the guy could fly with his ears as well as as our guy Taylor Ward but to sum up the game let's get into the awards tonight because again we can only enjoy the Buttercup once because our bull pin's not the problem our pitching's not the problem screw any other podcast that continues to rag on the pitching this is another Savage Garden loss because again from first pitch to last pitch never had a lead thanks to our fearless hitting our tenacious hitting our aggressive hitting that gets the season starting every night cuz I'm counting on a new beginning a reason for living the deeper mean in the end and I want to stand with you on a mountain and I want to bathe with you in the sea and I want to lay like this forever until the sky falls down on me you know talking about this team always gets me upset when I see that video and then see the Savage Garden and I see Mike Trout wearing that that hoodie right it makes me upset because I've seen him in that hoodie over the last three seasons more than I've seen him in a jersey so the next time I go to the angels Team Store I would love to see a Mike Trout injured list hoodie I think it would be fitting put on the front and number 27 trout on the back because that seems to be his brand now and uh prove me wrong 27 I love you to death I you should have 300 more home runs or 200 more home runs right now I should 300 home runs but he should have at least 150 more and and and you should be knocking on that door of possibly hitting 700 to finish your career you're going be nowhere close to that thanks to them damn injuries thanks to you nut slimming down thanks to you not keeping a good uh regimen because Ry doesn't hire good staff and thanks to you still playing The Outfield so those are just my thoughts on a very very chippy very very pissy Saturday now who got the golden Stamos [Music] got to love the fact the Angels had 13 more strikeouts notice how the offense has gotten progressively worse through the month of August getting more and more aggressive swinging everything being stupid as hell well we're back to the Double Digit strikeouts and the losses are piling up even more uh but the W the I mean who else are you going to give it to world famous balen Bowden Francis if you don't have a Bowden Francis Jersey already you should get it again 18th ranked I probably have knocked it down a little bit more than it has they probably gotten up to 15th in the league but 18th Last time I check ranked pitching staff in the league does it again to us it's no surprise we make you look famous we make you better than you actually are their Bullpen which is almost in in the late um what is it the 25th or worst in the league that's the reason why they're last in the American League East because they blow a lot of games solid Teflon against us but uh Bowden Francis is your John Stamos golden Stamos winner of the night now let's talk about nacho [Music] nachos nachos I love nachos yeah gas nachos your organization likes to lie to you a lot the Angels baseball team likes to spin it they like to talk coach speak they like to think of you as morons and idiots and they tell you all the time certain things and in am830 says just keep consuming the product listen to my voice W propaganda prime minister pee PE that's me and you listen and these people listen to sh Rush this team's playoff buy tickets buy buy byy and then R's like come up to the stadium and get entertained with our free giveaways with all that being said some Halo honks still believe the fact that our boy po uh is not an everyday player except when he plays every day he actually does good but when we rest him he does bad and that's just been a fact of the matter um and you know right when he gets going we sit him and tonight there is no defense for him even though he's been a pretty good hitter some may disagree this year but I think with the opportunity he's been given he's done a good job but I can't look the other way when you have a golden some I would love to give it to the rest of the lineup because the rest of the lineup is too busy jacking off but par was the biggest jack off tonight over four and four strikeouts every at bat he looked silly up there so uh yeah as much as I I'm in I'm a team Kevin po guy uh no sir you get the you you get the freaking nachos tonight now let's give away the award for Erica having her eye on you let's see what happen I'm Erica Weston's eye and I've got my eye on you er's watching She's Got That e eye if you're the star tonight she'll let your Praises fly but don't get cocky keep your game in check cuz Erica is the queen and she demands respect but I got my eye on me reward you play Like A Champion now you getting you caught her eye and you stole the show take the trophy home and let everyone no I'm Erica Weston's eye and I've got my eye on [Music] you so she's got her eye on a certain player and that's Vladimir Guerrero Jr he had a home run again he's red hot against the angels I think that's his fourth home run against this already in only two series maybe third uh but uh two for three uh this uh afternoon with a home run that put the game really away uh but he's been red hot he's batting 318 so he's a bit of a comeback player this season so good for him uh yeah there's again there's not much to talk about there's a lot of baseball left to be played and the season starts tonight which makes me so horny and me love you long time Daniel kicks it off with hey everyone happy Saturday Dan Rios checks in with hey give me a Botanical [Music] [Applause] Spritz CL Angels play with lose we toast the day SI and CH no matter score splits the clock let P some more split CL let's P some [Music] more JM says I got to tune in I just watched the entire shit show Silent say looks like today's approach was swing at everything back to the themes era exactly kidney stones ouch yes that was me yesterday also another loss since potassium's extension we can't win under the regime sell the team tear up potassium's contract and start over also damn Papa Fox sounded 40 years younger JM says damn sorry to hear about your kidney stones glad you're feeling better Todd thank you JM Hanky Panky says uh when is number six joining the one inone Club I don't think it's going to happen this year uh bod Francis uh is a pitcher I'm still calling him Bowen you want me to investigate today's game it was a crime to watch James says shit it was pitiful good you're okay Marty says Indiana University says it all nerd another tool with a secret drink named after him for sure uh he's a barista too also send Jake to Russia uh Marty says Jake is responsible for stolen election that ass Leaf says might call in I have quite a bit to talk about okay shopg girl says Todd no fatty food and bar fried uh food until your health recovers Another Day in Paradise for the Angels who else what else is new exactly appreciate that shop girl also Tyler says when is number six GNA go back to the AEL because of his anal fissures due to complications from his gender reassignment surgery journey I don't know but I'm very interested Tyler if you could let me know when that uh uh documentary is coming out I would love to see that only 90 seconds leave before we start hitting the snooze button James says uh this is great detective work Todd also Leaf says I'll do my best to not lull you y'all to sleep Halo says injection Marsha just came for a Red Sox fan oh U let's see Jake and big 20 have something in common sitting on the cuck chair Halo says I read up on him too he is also known for dabbling in Witchcraft and and is an active communist you know whether that's true or not Halo Joe I believe it just look at his picture also but you Mara uh would still hit on a nerdy Jake he would probably or she what's with vces toay in that doughnut shop in that donut I have no idea uh one jet spot says No Way Grill has uh the test testacular fortitude to even sound like that Hanky Panky says how in the hell does uh kavadis have more homers and five RBIs less than number six I have no dude again kavadis is just starting his career and already looks and is batting like 059 or 048 excuse me and looks way better than number six uh JM also says uh the fucking A's can laugh at us they are currently experiencing the biggest turnover in their history they don't even want to win and yet they're still winning right also Marty says Ron standing back like Nevin washing his hands from this mess at the press conference he squarely put the blame on Jake I wish JM says this team without sh is just like the white socks but with [Music] de they're all come on people make some [Applause] noise come on everybody it's the new thing it's brand new the guy died like 60 years ago but it's brand new no no no don't say Deo say Halo no no no no no don't say Halo say n now be happy uh mudwater says with you 100% Todd I had such high hopes for Ron Washington he fits the most poor uh he fits in with the most poorly run from top to bottom pro sports team in this country absolutely Halo Joe says give me Dante bashet I vote Marsha to be our hitting instructor she has been able to crush a few balls over her lifetime also absolutely Halo Joe she has a great feel for those balls e no that's disgusting you two stop it also I wouldn't be surprised if nerdy Jake calls in tonight at Hal hashire Washington hashire potassium fire nerdy Jake uh also John says Angels team nutritionists are trash they sure are uh Dan says call me crazy I don't care I still like Joe gerardi Joe would have been tossed about three or four times by this point Boone too that's true because those guys are baseball lifers those guys don't take crap from anybody those guys were raised in immedia crazed like just environment with a with a over-the-top um owner so I mean they're they're used to handling pressure in certain ways and usually it's argumentive Robert says we aren't talking about Ward's contract extension after breaking up a no no with a home run come on Papa Arty overpay the man and try to win a championship it's the ENT Ain M business exactly Sy says I wish someone would just air out the reality of working for this clown organization I wish Madden would have said more uh uh even Nevin wash is a respected leader yet he'll be a mouthpiece for Arty and that which is difficult to understand because we had like you said I've said had such high hopes for this organization high hopes for Ron Washington to come in here and I thought he was going to be that guy from I forget that movie where the principal comes in there with a microphone I think it's Morgan Freeman was the actor and he went into that uh you know the whole you know ghetto type uh high school and he cleaned it up and he made kids care about school I was hoping Morgan Freeman was Ron Washington or vice versa and he'd come in there with a loudspeaker and he'd just be like throwing the the kids out that were useless the gang bangers throwing out the you know your your one uh you know a gangster party jury throwing him out you know you know making sure that trash was out and like just making sure who wanted to be here was going to be here and and you know we all grow together and have that warm squishy feeling like at the end of that movie but no Ron Washington is a puppet buckle up buttercups it's G to get worse oh Martinez you come with the truth John says Angels players don't care they want to go on vacation already silent E also well yeah John think about it Mike Trout's been rushing and spritzing all over the place since him and Tiger Woods became friends and built that Golf Course back East he he's spritzing he's like dude can can I just stop wearing my jersey AKA hoodie and Fly East with my my newest son and we can go golfing he's probably not even teaching his oldest son how to play baseball he's like you want to be a you want to be a Tiger Woods not a Mike Trout s says if he has any Pride he would just walk away and tell everyone everything I would love that and again num uh you know smoking Joe had every opportunity still has an opportunity on his podcast but he's my he's so stupid he thinks that someone's going to hire him back in this league and he he's done you know his his baseball life is over he should be spilling the tea so to say

nerdy little nerdy geeky guys coming on that's my that's my ailles deal little you know what I'm talking about Bud hey bud you know what I'm talking about oh boy I think Leaf wanted to come in to vent so uh Le Leaf Ericson no but I'm sure he's uh he's a relative of yours seeing how hairy he was and tall and very wh skinned I'm pretty sure you relate to him or you are related to him I can in a way when I used to join the nudus group I was a little shy so I'd wear a leaf over my crutch until I got comfortable that I whipped that sucker out and and there she is Old Glory real quick one Randy your maybe soon to be boyfriend says uh I imagine Marsha looks like stara from Napoleon Dynamite you imagine me however you like just give me that quick there Randy I hope you got some good jeans Randy

than Randy yeah yeah I Randy I don't want to be using you or anything like that you know hey we could be pels you know we could be butts but I'm really only looking at I'm only concerned with your goo bazooka hey I I want thank you very much for having me on again for that award I really like that hey I hope everybody likes that award I you know it kind of looks like me a little bit the muscle tone there uh you know but facial features little you know not as good looking we we we didn't put enough hair on that Ward on the face it's hard it's hard to do with the gold troph I understand that so don't worry but I like I just like the uh I just like the look of it it's really nice and the music was nice like I said I was [Music] honored what could I say bud I don't know pal good job all right hey all you buckaroos out there you you you hang tired of your angels man I know they suck now they'll probably suck next year too but you know what we're going to come back we're going to have our year you watch 2002 will come once again oh boy I'm reaching there Randy says uh you're you're his bitch and uh he says you're his Aaron roders oh boy you had to use the b word didn't you oh boy that was very offensive Randy I'm gonna let that one go but uh expect to expect it get a little rough we're in the sack pal I may have to slap you around I may slap you harder than I did Grill I'll tell you what gr Grill got online with me a couple times and I slapped the freckles off of that fella he's trying to get away I said you bring that freckly red stinker back over here okay all [Music] right you have a good day hey go Angels everybody hey Todd bud I'll talk to you later pal okay you hear me hey you hear me yeah I hear you I hear you all right by fuckle talk to you later all right you have a good day youo all right bye bye bye bye damn Mara oh hey now indeed Grill hasn't recovered yet Marsha put the drill to grill oh Randy says he slaps back yikes it's a Halo honk line well I don't know how that called so hi what's up Leaf that's a tough one to follow yeah that was uh my face hurts from that yeah that was pretty brutal man but what you got to vent man um so long needed change happened uh yester uh not yesterday but two days ago uh Service uh is out of service uh Dan Wilson is the new manager hden coach got fired and you know how you were saying suggesting about uh the May getting someone about the sorry about the Angels getting someone who uh was actually good at hitting did that with Edgar Martinez so so he's he's not part of he is now the new he's a new hitting instructor a new hitting coach I like that that's a good move yeah very good move yeah in fact fact if meos came back down uh five nothing think to went six to five and if you look at that eighth inning rally those four runs they came on six consecutive singles that is what the Angels really need to do is get hit after hit after hit because not only does it not only is it productive it drives the other team nuts oh yeah it does it's demoralizing because anyone can give him a home run but if you're getting constant pressure guys on base it changes the Dynamics of everything the pitcher has to look at the runners the catcher needs to be aware of the defense and the runners it just makes things really hellish out there so I'm I'm glad they went that route as even though they're division rival I mean that's smart I mean Dan Wilson was what a backup catcher with you guys forever uh starting CCH for about 12 Years a long time Allstar yeah yeah he was he was decent he was there when the Mariners were at their Peak I believe and then yeah that was he was for the L Panella era yeah so he knows and anyone from the Panela tree I kind of like um but Edgar Martinez that's a great move dude because uh you know he's a longtime Mariner beloved up there Hall of Famer and he could teach I mean if those guys have any questions I'm sure he'll he'll be up front with everything yeah in fact he was uh the hitting coach from like midseason 2018 2015 sorry through 2018 and the alins actually had pretty well under him like we I remember 2015 because they were hitting about 230 averaging 3.4 runs a game that season in the final stretch it shoted about 260 or 4.6 runs a game which that's a pretty big difference over that stand it is it is and I think if they're able to not if he's able to instruct these hitters the way that he wants to implement you know changes to their swings and approaches I think that's going to be beneficial I think if I don't think the Mariners per se maybe You' know more than me about it um do the Mariners overvalue or value saber metrics and stuff like that under the depoto era um I feel like they definitely I feel like they definitely value that I just don't know how much they do okay so yeah it just it's just a matter of for me it's like can you get runs can you can you get a solid pitching s which the second part doesn't seem to be the problem yeah yeah uh and it's you know sorry I got jeez all right Leaf well I gotta go sorry all right take care man bye later it sound like dogs or something was coming up there to kill him uh that was a bunch of in the background but the number to call in Eric uh the is 714598 3221 I should just play this thing right now here you could check it out there if you guys want to call uh but damn uh what a game again leavs being attacked uh Fernando says unfinished business and uh yeah it was you look at this squad it's just getting worse and worse and we talked about it in the beginning saber metrics analytics are just God awful they're killing killing this uh this team don't worry about it Leaf it's okay good call though good call appreciate it and uh you know it was a good call because the comments didn't go off on you it's the Halo hline what's up everybody how you doing Eric we doing all right now do you like the move of getting rid of service and like what Leaf was saying getting Edgar Martinez as your hitting coach yeah I love the move in fact I was like doing all of that I was just waiting for that do to drop because I mean just getting out of hand yeah I mean if the if the Mariners had stayed consistent or at least scored a few more runs on average um there's no reason to think they'd still be in first place right now and Houston would be looking up at them yeah yeah I mean well we're g I guess we're gonna find out together bud because this is hopefully G to work out for us but we're going to find out well I've said it before man I mean a lot of fans don't agree with me but you know the Mariners really don't bother me um even though like you know angels are my team like they it seems like they're only they're that team that bothers me when we're both good and we haven't been been both good in a while so you know yeah it it's been like one of those things where if someone had to win this division I'm tired of seeing Houston uh don't like Texas you know I'd pull for Seattle to get it so I'm hoping you guys can recover overtake Houston well I mean I feel like we might be able to but I don't know it's just one of those things but well I mean they do have the an opportunity here if they get hot and they start to believe uh Dan Wilson and and Edgar Martinez maybe they could ride that into a nice little run at the end so we'll see what happens but I mean they definitely have the white guys the h they they do so it it's just getting the players to believe and buy in and if they do um maybe the Mariners have a magical September um but I'll tell you who won't be there in the playoffs us I can tell you how much probably way your game a be night getting today well at least you got a hit yeah that's true Eric but I mean this this team went up there with a crappy you know we should have seen this when we played him last time Francis pitched here in uh in in Anaheim he made us look foolish then too and we were way overly aggressive so you would think they would change their mentality and try to be you know less aggressive more patient no they were even more aggressive and the game flew by so uh they made him look like Nolan Ryan Randy Johnson rolled into one oh boy I mean he's a right-handed pitcher but he could have thrown 11 uh with his left hand today and he still would have got us out yep we're terrible bro we are terrible just be just when you're having a bad day up there Eric and the Mariners are not performing up to your expectations just think to yourself at least I'm not an angels fan oh boy we've had it rough my friend but other than that are you doing good up there yeah we're doing okay um been a few days with B's neew that's a lot of fun that's good that's good spend some family time yep well you call in again my friend you have a good rest of your weekend all right Budd you too thank you all right brother all right that's Eric from up in Seattle so let's run through some scores real quick and then uh we'll bid a do for the day uh hopefully you guys have some plans for uh this Saturday afternoon Saturday evening it's still early uh the Brewers are beating those Athletics uh nine to4 uh the H the red hot Diamondbacks continue to win hopefully the Dodgers can start to lose because the teams that they've been playing the Mariners and the Rays had rolled over for him at the Ravine uh the Diamondbacks are beating the Red Sox four to one and then right now up in Seattle leaf and Eric are probably watching the Giants are holding on to a 43 lead right now uh up there in Seattle as Seattle needs every win at this point and uh in the first inning the Reds have scored four runs already in the Pirates and they lead them forward to nothing tigers and White Soxs later on tonight oh can't wait for that one uh also you got the Phillies and Royals that's a good series the Phillies are 74 and 54 The Royals are 72 and 56 uh tickets are going as low as $13 for that game uh also Cardinals and twins will go at it later on as well you got the Rangers against the shit fucks uh that tickets are going as low as $21 for that game uh Braves host the Nationals and then you have the Mets at Padres tonight the Padres are red hot as well and then you got the Rays at Raiders tonight tickets going as low as $28 that's a little weird maybe it's because nobody likes the raise but you got Clayton I should be
