00:03 - What's the point of trading away everybody?
00:06 You know, you wanted this high price team,
00:08 just stick with it.
00:10 And I, you know, Snell's too tough.
00:12 I would never deal him.
00:13 You got a great closer
00:16 and there is no way I'm trading Soto.
00:19 There's just no way.
00:20 So I'm just not making the move.
00:22 I won't be surprised in the least
00:25 if they sit tight and don't do anything.
00:28 They're in it.
00:29 They got a huge series coming up
00:32 with the Dodgers this weekend.
00:35 And you know, I know they beat them in the playoffs.
00:38 The problem has been Mike, in the regular season,
00:41 the Dodgers have owned the Padres for years.
00:44 And what they need to do, 'cause this is in the playoffs,
00:47 they need to return of serve.
00:49 They need to win that series.
00:51 They need to make up, you know,
00:54 a game and a half, two games in that series,
00:57 not in the West, but in the wild card.
01:00 They need to keep winning games
01:02 and they have the talent to do it.
01:04 My God, they're loaded.
01:06 They're the Mets and they actually win.
01:08 - They have a four game series, like you mentioned,
01:12 starting Friday with the Dodgers.
01:15 They do have, and these three games here,
01:17 they got to beat up the Rockies.
01:19 If you're actually back in it,
01:20 don't mess around with the Colorado Rockies in Coors Field.
01:23 Take all those big bats that you got
01:25 and actually score some runs over the next three days
01:27 and get yourself three wins.
01:29 All right.
01:29 Rangers also placed Nathan Ivaldi on the aisle
01:32 with the forearm injury.
01:33 So that's why the Rangers, Scotty,
01:35 have been reacquiring all this pitching.
01:38 All the pitching that they bought in the off season is hurt.
01:41 The Grom, Ivaldi, et cetera.
01:43 So now they have to trade for more pitching,
01:46 but I will give them the hat tip.
01:47 They're going for it.
01:49 You know, they threw the money in, in the off season
01:51 and they're throwing more in now
01:53 to try to get some arms to win that American League
01:56 West down the stretch.
