00:00We were hearing through the All-Star break, left and right, that the Yankees were going to get Suarez and Gallen.
00:08Are you buying that?
00:11I buy that's what they want to do.
00:14You know, that's going to cost a lot.
00:16Suarez hit 31 home runs, over 70 ribbies, plays great defense, with the nicest guys in the world.
00:24So, I mean, Seattle would love to have him back, too.
00:26And Gallen hasn't had a good year, but you look at the season, at least 3-0 against the Yankees and Mets this year, with 0-9-2 ERA.
00:36He's a Philadelphia kid.
00:38I think he's thriving at a big market.
00:40I think he's going to end up back east of the free agent.
00:43So, it would be a hefty price tag.
00:45But, yeah, if you're the Yankees, that would solve two problems with one.
00:49Well, the Mets have to do something as well, don't they, with their pitching?
00:53If they think that they're going to go the distance with the Phillies?
00:57Or do you think they're just an automatic playoff team?
01:00Either way, it's either the east or a wild card, and they don't have to worry about anything.
01:05Well, they could use some infield help, for sure.
01:08Could use another arm in that bullpen.
01:11Could use another starter, for that matter.
01:13I mean, for a while, they had a surplus.
01:15You know, now, you know, kind of struggling there.
01:18So, I think they'd make the playoffs.
01:20But I'm with you, Scott.
01:21I think the Phillies are the team to beat in the east, just because that rotation is so powerful.
01:26I mean, that rotation come October, I'll take that rotation over anybody in baseball.
01:32Do you like the Brewers or the Cubs in the Central?
01:37I like the Cubs, but I would not rule out the Brewers.
01:41We do that year after year, just like we do the Rays.
01:43And, man, a smart front office there with Matt Arnold, you know, great manager, and Murphy.
01:50They get it done.
01:51For them to, you know, the Cubs, everything pretty much went right.
01:54Yeah, they lost Justin Steele, their ace, but playing on their minds.
01:58And here's the Brewers just chugging along just one game back.
02:01So, man, the Brewers have done this so many times where they're sitting in second, third place at the break.
02:07In the season, you look up, they got a 10-game lead.
02:09How do you think Mizoroski will do when it gets, you know, stressful, you know, in a race against the Cubs?
02:21He should do well.
02:22I don't think it fazes him.
02:24We saw that when he was on the center stage in Atlanta.
02:27You know, he knew all the uproar about him being selected in the clubhouse.
02:32It didn't bother him the least.
02:34And pitched very well in that one inning.
02:36It wasn't like he was wild or all nervous.
02:38So, what he did in Atlanta gives me confidence that he'll be fine come October.
02:44So, are those rumors about these cities that are, you know, they're talking about the All-Star Games and the like.
02:53In 28, is it San Francisco in concert with the Olympics?
02:58Because I know they don't like the dates of the Olympics in Los Angeles, Manfred and company.
03:02What do you know about that?
03:05And what do you know about, because we've heard, you know, Wrigley Field is in the mix here in the next year or two.
03:14Where are these All-Star Games going to be?
03:17Well, next year, Philadelphia for sure.
03:202027, Wrigley Field for sure.
03:22They'll be announcing that on July 30th.
03:24That's a done deal.
03:262028's wide open.
03:28Could they do it in conjunction with the Olympics and have, say, Anaheim or San Diego with Petco Park, you know, do that?
03:35Maybe.
03:36But right now, if there's no Olympic involvement, it'll definitely be, I'd say it should definitely, most likely be Toronto.
03:432027, Wrigley Field for sure.
