00:00
pure baseball pure baseball with turf uh through 100 games so entering play yesterday yeah the
00:06
red socks in three consecutive years 53 and 47 they were 53 and 47 and 23 53 and 47 and 24
00:15
53 and 47 through 100 games entering yesterday uh so the question becomes is this team different
00:22
and is this a team we should trust down the stretch compared to a team in the exact same
00:27
spot the last two years that fell flat on their faces it's very fair we've talked about how alex
00:33
cora uh every year i think with the exception of 2018 has had a losing record in august now i know
00:38
they still have a lot of july games to play but just they've had a losing record in the second half
00:43
every year with the exception of 2021 which is the year they added kyle schwarber he joined the team
00:48
a couple weeks after he got traded and then they went to the alcs every other year has been
00:52
in different degrees a disaster so they played over expectation last year to get to 53 and 47
01:01
and then they kind of fell apart right like tanner hauck cutter crawford kind of turned back into
01:05
pumpkins some of the other guys in the lineup were kind of a man and then they just kind of nosedived
01:09
i do and maybe i'm gullible but i do think this team is a lot different for the two main reasons we
01:16
were just talking about they didn't have garrett crochet last year so every fifth game if you're
01:21
riding a losing streak here comes crochet a bregman actually talked about this yesterday where he's
01:25
like if you need a stopper he's your stopper if you need a guy to keep the streak going he keeps
01:30
the streak going like he's just good every single time out you didn't have that a year ago as good
01:35
as tanner hauck was he's not he's not a stopper no you also didn't have alex bregman you didn't
01:40
have bregman last year and you could argue like oh well he had you know he had devers in the lineup
01:44
i think bregman and like all the intangible stuff all that stuff combined with him being a good
01:48
player super high ops he's still one of the top ops guys or top war guys in baseball despite all
01:55
the time that he's missed i think those two specifically throw in some of the new life in
02:01
roman anthony and marcel meyer which weren't on the team a year ago yeah i i have confidence that
02:06
they're in a better spot despite the record being the same as it was the last three years well
02:10
and you know not to put more work on terp here but since we got a pure baseball going on down the
02:15
ball yep were they in playoff position the last two years or what do they just have the same record
02:20
