00:00How do you think that 15-year deal Soto got is going to pan out for him, like health-wise,
00:09everything else?
00:10He got all the money in the world.
00:11Do you think it'll pan out?
00:13I think it'll pan out for the next five to 10 years, and what I honestly think is we're
00:18looking at a guy who's eventually going to be a DH.
00:20I honestly thought the money for this guy was foolish from the get-go.
00:23I never understood it.
00:24Shoei Ohtani made sense to me.
00:26You're roughly giving him a 20-year deal because it's sparsed out over 20 years, and
00:30you're paying for two separate players, the pitcher and then the hitter.
00:34So that's $350 million each for each one of those players.
00:38I honestly think Soto will be a DH in five to seven years, and he turns 35 years in,
00:43and that's a pretty big deal because he also has that opt-out of which Steve Cohen can
00:47immediately void by making an $805 million contract, but keep in mind, he still leads
00:52another 10 years on that deal.
00:55How does it work out?
00:56If they got no rings after 10 years, it didn't work out.
01:00Do you like the Lizardo deal that the Phillies pulled off?
01:05I do.
01:06I do, but it made me disappointed in what in the living hell are the Miami Marlins?
01:10This is a team that was in the playoffs two years ago, and they celebrated that playoff
01:14berth two years ago by giving Kim Ng, the first female GM in Major League Baseball,
01:19a new boss that she had to answer to.
01:21So she skipped out of town, and they've just been selling off all their decent assets ever
01:26since.
01:28Everyone looks over at the Oakland A's, well, the Sacramento A's, and gets mad at them,
01:33as they should, and trust me, I have a lot to say on that, but someone should really
01:36get mad at what's happening in Miami.
01:38It's been a calamity down there.
01:41What did you think when the Cubs landed Tucker?
01:44Shocked me, literally surprised me, just because this has been a team that hasn't made a whole
01:48lot of noise as of late, and Tucker was a great pickup.
01:52I heard a lot of people around the Bronx begging for Kyle Tucker here in Yankee Stadium.
01:55I thought that was kind of a fool's errand.
01:57I didn't think there was any chance they would trade him over here to the New York Yankees,
02:01but for the Cubs, a lot of on base, a lot of stolen base, ton of power.
02:06He is a phenomenal pickup over there.
02:08If the Cubs could just go get another arm, I wish they would go and get in the Burns
02:11saga, but they simply already announced that they won't do it.
02:14If they can just get another frontline arm, the Cubs should run away with this division
02:19because the Brewers look like they're going to take a step back.
02:21The Reds are starting to improve.
02:23The Pirates need to come into their own, but the only team that's seemingly ready to make
02:27that jump is the Cubs.
02:29So for the love of God, spend some money.
02:31The Pirates don't spend money.
02:32You know that.
02:33Their payroll is a joke.
02:34They never spend money.
02:37Never will.
02:38Never will.
02:39They signed today, re-signed Andrew McCutcheon.
02:41I love the fit form just because, you know, it's kind of a going home thing for them.
02:45But no, they never spend money, which is why I find it funny that everyone's talking about
02:48locking up Skeens now.
02:50Skeens now?
02:51That guy might be the billion dollar guy in five years.
02:54There's no way he's going to get locked up over there now.
02:57Can you believe they were going to get rid of some of their pitchers like, you know,
03:02Keller?
03:03They were talking about getting rid of Jones.
03:04Are they crazy?
03:05They're nuts.
03:06They're nuts.
03:07Well, they're just a franchise that refuses to spend.
03:09They make money hand over fist and feel like they've been fleecing that wonderful city
03:13of Pittsburgh forever.
03:15That's a team that should be good.
03:17We've seen them in the playoffs in the last 10 years.
03:19Remember that blackout they had with Garrett Cole on the mound?
03:22Dude, give me some good Pirates baseball.
03:24They're young and they're hungry, but that ownership is always going to stand right in
03:28the way.
