00:00But you've got some Cubs intel.
00:01Well, you heard the highlight right there coming in of Seah Suzuki with a big-time drop
00:05out there in right field.
00:06It's happened a lot of times, most famously maybe last September against Atlanta as part
00:11of the collapse.
00:12There was the Saturday night game against the Reds where it was dropped.
00:17He dropped a ball that cost them three runs and then ended up hitting a grand slam.
00:23It's been an adventure out there, and not just on the plays he doesn't make.
00:29Sometimes he'll break back before he comes in and won't quite get to a ball in front,
00:34or there's anxiety.
00:36You remember the time against Arizona a couple weeks ago when Gabby Moreno, the catcher,
00:41basically stole a base on him on a single by pausing, and Seah threw behind him, and
00:46Justin Steele is standing on the mound pointing to second.
00:49There's been a lot of plays, and I have been told and then confirmed that as soon as Cody
00:54Bellinger is able to play the outfield physically, Seah Suzuki is your everyday DH.
01:01That he goes to DH, and that's where he's going to be.
01:06And there's short-term repercussions of this.
01:08There's long-term repercussions of this.
01:12And there's another piece of news that I have as well, but let's discuss this one first.
01:15As soon as Bellinger is healthy enough to play the outfield with regularity, he will
01:19play in right, and Seah will be your everyday DH.
01:22And then, even as a fourth outfielder, Tauchman would be out there, Seah's going to be five
01:28or six days a week at DH, is what you're saying?
01:30Yes.
01:31So no rotation at DH, no half days, get your bat in line-up, get off your feet, Seah's
01:36bat is in, and they're going to maximize defense.
01:39Maximize defense and maximize your line-up.
01:41Right, I mean, Bellinger and Seah and this version of PCA all in the same line-up obviously
01:46also is helpful.
01:47All got to play.
01:49And Mike Tauchman is a perfectly useful fourth outfielder at any of your outfield spots.
