When Patti and her potty-mouthed friend talk baseball, you'll know this is not a baseball podcast for lightweights. This is the real deal, from real fans. Because diamonds are a strong woman's best friend, and there's no crying in baseball.
Patti 0:00
No Hi and welcome to episode 433 of No Crying in Baseball, the Mr. Judge Episode. My name is Patti. I'm here with my friend. Pottymouth. Hey, Pottymouth.
Pottymouth 0:27
hey, Mr. Judge, you're gonna, like, make you laugh. I hope so you're gonna laugh. I'm getting kind of tired of Mr. Judge to tell you the very the very truth. Yeah, no, it's kind of a hoot. Okay, I hope so. Yeah. So, hey, it's chilly. Here we are recording, yeah, and it's actually turned chilly outside, so it's officially not feeling like baseball
Patti 0:46
weather, I think, yeah. Well, not baseball in this hemisphere. Yeah.
Pottymouth 0:50
Although, you know, we were reflecting back, and we have been to many an opening day that we're around now, I
Patti 0:56
do own a red parka that I got from the thrift store, mainly to wear to nats games in April and October.
Pottymouth 1:04
That is such a good idea. Yeah, I need to do that. I also want to do that for a red poncho. I need a red rain poncho for similar, sure situations, and just because red is, like, good for my teams all over so I'm good with red
Patti 1:19
for like, probably 45% of the teams out there. So it's safe. It's safe. It's a good
Pottymouth 1:22
idea. Yeah. But what do I have? Orange and black ponchos, which are good for
Patti 1:26
I don't think that your orange punches orange as you think it is. It is. It's more of a mustard yellow, but that's just me. I think it's pretty I think it fits in. I think you're worried about it being orange, and so you write, you manifested the orangeness of it when you could really just have condimented it and been mustard,
Pottymouth 1:42
right? Or I could just head to the pirates and see how it goes over there, because that would be black and yellow. So sure. I think that's fine. All right. Well, here we are. We're recording on Monday. That's different, because yesterday was Mr. Potty mouse birthday. Yay. I'm so happy about that. It was good. It definitely means that I'm feeling less prepared than usual, but, you know, that's actually probably a lie. I'm not always that prepared, but, um, but we spent yesterday, you know, sipping around Silver Spring, which was really nice. I really appreciate Fenwick beer and wine having their wine tasting on Mr. Potty mouths birthday, so that we can do that.
Patti 2:17
And I hear that you guys did an excellent job of trying to make every single table from a winery feel welcome.
Pottymouth 2:22
Well, actually, we got four out of seven. That's that's all well, those four all had multiple wines and so. And then there was the cold factor. It was getting colder and colder. And I think that, you know outside, it was outside, yeah, and yesterday was important to know, right, when we first got there, there were little, teeny patches of sun that we could kind of stand in. But then there were those 40 mile an hour gusts that would blow through. And nobody had an actual tent so that. But sometimes when they were pouring the wine went sideways, like one time it went like right against back at the guy who was pouring. So yes, there were, you know, hazards,
Patti 3:00
three of difficulties. So this is the same. These are the same gust that blew a trampoline into
Pottymouth 3:05
our backyard from our neighbor's yard. Like you gave it back. I would have sold it, right? That's like fundraiser. Well, we would have had to move it. I mean, unless we could have people come into our backyard to see the trampoline, right? Yes, yes. It was get gusty here in in Maryland yesterday. I don't know about wherever you are, but this is winter blowing in, and we'll see if it sticks around, but but the wine tasting, the bonus was it definitely cut down on the crowds, so I think we ended up being able to get wine more quickly, but we did not last as long, so maybe that was a wash. And so that's
Patti 3:41
the real reason you went to the brewery. The brewery afterwards, was to roll up because there was the party part two, or anything
Pottymouth 3:46
100% well, actually a little bit of both. But we probably would have stuck around for another table or two of wine had it not been that. Well, just
Patti 3:54
just so you know, the intern and I toasted Mr. Potty mouse birthday from the safety of a bar in takoma park without having to like travel. That's a good thing too. On today's show, we've got boyfriends, having babies, having surgery and having some fun, damning with faint praise, our predictions are not as terrible as I thought they were. We've got an Ellie Dodger White House update. We've got stadium news, including the Trump and some public transport in the sky. We've got so much international baseball, we've got so much sports betting in the police bladder, and we're cross training with both the NFL and the pwhl Cheers. So we're only, like, two weeks away from starting a new boyfriends. Wow. November 30 is our first boyfriend. New boyfriend episode. We need to figure out what we're doing. Yes, we need to have a business meeting. I say we do it over some some cauliflower curry or something. Sure. Okay,
Pottymouth 4:48
sure, sounds good. So this is our baseball boyfriend. So there we've picked them every off season for nine seasons now, which is crazy. And they're the guy. Guys that we think are cool, one guy per team, and at the end, we do our fantasy league, which we're behind on, sending out the prize packs. They're coming, they're coming guys. But we have to do that again. But we have done this so many seasons that we've picked so many guys that we might need to tweak our rules, because the current rules are, you can't pick a guy more than once unless it's the one once in forever guy that for however long and like, we're one holdover per year, per season to a new season. So we've picked a lot, and maybe it's time to revisit some old picks, because they've done something since nine years ago.
Patti 5:34
Because there were so many guys that we picked too early, yeah, who may be like, hitting their prime right now,
Pottymouth 5:38
for instance, for instance, glad you asked that question. Yeah. So back in 2018 or that was our first season 2017 series.
Patti 5:49
And then the first full season started with opening day 2018
Pottymouth 5:52
so that was our first real, you know, complete flock of boyfriends. I picked Kiki Hernandez way back when he was a wee Dodger, and now he is been away and back again, and hopefully they'll take him back. He's, you know, free agent now, and of course, y'all know that he was key into the Dodgers winning the World Series because he made that crazy throw in the ninth inning of game six that made that go on to game seven, and you know, the rest is history. And Kike updated us this week from a hospital bed, looking really high, like, if you looked at his face, he was up on painkillers for sure level. Yeah, I think so, right, different substances, but he looked like he was not feeling the pain, but he did have surgery a couple days ago, November 14, to repair a torn elbow muscle. Now, here's
Patti 6:47
where has he had that torn elbow problem a long time? Yeah.
Pottymouth 6:52
So here's where, like, I put on the mom hat. Yeah, right, the baseball hat serves double double service here. I don't like it when guys play injured. It just makes as a mom, it makes me concerned. I feel like somebody should say, this is this good for you in the long term. I mean, baseball, sure, you're making millions of dollars, but someday you're gonna have to live with your just your health, you know, and that is the most important thing. And if you have constant pain, that is a shitty way to live, no matter how much money you have. So he was injured in a slide at the plate on May 30, and he actually, in his Instagram story, played various versions of that slide at the plate. After that injury, he kept playing until July 5, and he said, In Shit, I don't know it's an article that we're gonna link. He said quote, I played until, basically, I felt like I couldn't even hold the bat anymore. That's too long. Not good, not good. And I know, Mr. Potty mouth, if you're listening, you're thinking, I should really take my own advice, because I tend to exercise when I've had slight injuries, just slight until they become enough to make me stop, right, something like that. So maybe there's a reason why I picked Kike. Maybe we have sort of similar moral compasses in many ways. So you really do. Then Kike did go on the IL until August 26 and that was this big hunk of time where he pretty much promised I'm going to be that October kigay, you know, because he is known for kicking it in in the postseason and making a really huge difference. So he did come back and played regular season in September, played through the World Series despite probably major pain, because he said at this point, that torn elbow muscle had completely separated from the bone, which just sounds really, really gross. There was one translation that said broken bone, but his original, which post in Spanish, said that the muscle had separated from the bone. He said it was kind of dumb on my end, no shit, but I've always felt, I feel, if I feel like I could play, I'm not going to go on the Il. By the time we went in for the MRI, it was a little too late. Well, why is that his decision? I That's decision.
Patti 9:11
And shouldn't it be like we've got medical professionals on staff to say you can't play like this? And
Pottymouth 9:17
you know, he already went through a situation like that, when he was playing on the Red Sox, when he had that double hernia, and they only diagnosed one, and then they told him, you're okay. Kept playing, and he was like, you know, is this life I have to pay play through this pain until he got to the Dodgers and they figured it out. So you'd think that after surviving, that you would learn I or that
Patti 9:37
means he doesn't trust the medical professionals, because they didn't diagnose, right? Both of two, yeah.
Pottymouth 9:44
Also, what doesn't help is, he did really well in the postseason. Yeah, he like, you know, did what he said he was gonna do. He got 16 hits in 17 postseason games. He did that, you know, making the Dodgers win thing. And so even that thing, so it's been. You know, it's sort of like the Freddie Freeman the year before, right, playing on the ankle. So it's, it's like, I hate it when they're reaffirmed poor decisions, potentially poor decisions. Who knows in the long run? I mean, Freddie did pretty well this year, so
Patti 10:14
he really did not see him in my head. I'm like, huh, maybe the Dodgers are beatable if they don't play while injured. But they're but you said, like you said, they're proving themselves well, if we play out while injured, we win.
Pottymouth 10:24
Yeah, yeah, that's pretty shitty. But there is some personal pain here, but beyond the actual physical pain for Kike, because what he had dreamt about was playing in the World Baseball Classic for Puerto Rico, but not only playing for the team, because he's done that before, right, but playing in Puerto Rico for Puerto Rico, because the group round is in Puerto Rico. So the post, the first sentence was to mi gente de Puerto Rico. So he was, he was directing his comments to Puerto Rico, apologizing and just feeling, you know, I think saying that it's probably worse for him than it is for them, because he won't be able to play in the World
Patti 11:04
Baseball. Oh, my God, this is like Prince Harry apologizing to all of Canada, right?
Pottymouth 11:09
Sort of
Patti 11:11
Colony, a little different Prince and no, they're both colonies people. Kike Hernandez and Prince Harry are the same people.
Pottymouth 11:19
I think Canada has a little bit more self governing ability than Puerto Rico, in a lot of ways. That
Patti 11:25
to the king, right?
Pottymouth 11:29
But for Prince Kike, he did include a photo of him in the Puerto Rican flag when the team had the right leg in that big celebratory thing. So he's showing his national pride, his colonial
Patti 11:43
pride, I don't know, pride, pride of his homeland, place of his birth.
Pottymouth 11:47
I will cheers to Kike. Maybe he heal, heal very well and get picked up. I hate to say it like because I don't really want the Dodgers to three Pete. However, I do want Kike to be happy, and he will be happy if he gets resigned by the Dodgers. Yeah, he should re signed, not resigned. Be careful with your punctuation again.
Patti 12:07
Yeah, yes. I started a second beer, and we haven't talked about our first beer. What was our first beer, which
Pottymouth 12:13
I just finished? It was nebulous, something nebulous, but after nebulous, you kind of lose it anyway. It was by silver branch, where we ended up yesterday, right? Nebulous limits, and it was
Patti 12:24
very delicious. Yes, I think that's it. And I just started my second beer, which is the best beer from Manor Hill, also local. It's a Vienna style lager. We've talked about both of those beers before, and you're starting your Yeah,
Pottymouth 12:35
and we've drunk this one before, and I noticed that there were a couple still left in the fridge. So hey, better now than ever. Dogfish Head, juicy Pale Ale with the whole Grateful Dead theme. And I can't remember the exact name, but yeah, it's a juicy IPA. All
Patti 12:51
right, that's excellent. Hey, so we've got a bunch of boyfriends that are all of a sudden beefing up the Team USA roster. Speaking of the World Baseball Classic, which you just mentioned in the in the key case, how about that? Yes, there. So at the MLB awards this past week, they announced that Peter Armstrong, current boyfriend of mine, until a few weeks from now, and Corbin Carroll, past boyfriend of yours, are joining other past boyfriends. Cal Riley, Aaron judge, Bobby went Jr, and also Paul Skeens on Team USA. And Pete had played for team USA. Is 12, you, 15, you and 18 years he kind of grew up playing for team USA. And he talked to the coach, Mark DeRosa at the Home Run Derby, and he said the following, and this is my favorite quote, maybe of the entire year of 2025 I love playing for my country more than anything. Getting to play for you. Play with Cal corpse, Mr. Judge, it's gonna be great. And I just see that as such, like an unintentional dig. He's like, hi, old man, yeah, you know I'm coming for you. It's
Pottymouth 14:00
so weird. I still think of him as his rookie of the year, year, which I guess is a while ago,
Patti 14:04
so long ago now, the Cal corpse and Mr. Judge, that's so cute. It makes me so happy. Side note, Corbin Carroll. You know who you profiled in the past. You noted that he's got, you know, his mother's side is Taiwanese, and so the Taiwan team had offered him a spot for the World Baseball Classic, but he held out for team USA. You know, I get
Pottymouth 14:26
that. I totally get that. I'm thinking Cal korbs and Mr. Judge is like a buddy movie or something like, doesn't that sound
Patti 14:32
like your Yeah, should be it really. Well, maybe it can be, I don't know, maybe breaking teas already got a hold of it. If it does, I'm
Pottymouth 14:39
buying it. Oh yes, yeah. It would be a good t shirt or a buddy movie, but
Patti 14:43
yes, all the things just
Pottymouth 14:45
quick. Another past baseball, boyfriend, pick of mine, Dansby Swanson, for with swansby dancing for a while, dancing he and his wife, Mallory Pugh Mallory Pugh Swanson now are parents, so congrats. Congratulations to Dansby and Mal Josie James Swanson and I don't know
Patti 15:04
Josie James is so good.
Pottymouth 15:06
Is really good, does it sounds like a cowboy? Sounds like Jesse James? Yeah. Born on November 14, so just missed Mr. Potty mouse birthday. And Mallory clearly took this season off from the Chicago stars Football Club. She is a former team USA champion in women's soccer, and it's pretty fucking cool that they both get to be athletes in Chicago. Be nice to see them speak out about the situation in Chicago, but that's a whole nother part of the podcast. But still, congratulations to the Swansons to the Pew Swansons
Patti 15:44
to Dansby and Mallory. Yes, for Josie James, that's pretty great. So at the beginning of every season, hottie month and I make predictions, and they're notoriously bad, and they were notorious they we lived up to that in the individual categories, but we did surprisingly well in the team category. Teamwork makes the dream work. So in all the very many individual categories, like Cy Young and Rookie of the Year and MVP and all of those things, we nailed Cy Young. That's crazy. I had three school and you had Paul Skeens, wow. We had nothing else. We very carefully did not choose Mr. Judge, right or Shohei, because we're, you know, they are, in fact, phenomenal players. But we kind of wanted to spread the I'm a little, I'm a little resentful this year. I think Cal should have gotten instead of, instead of Mr. Judge, because of the extra work he did as catcher.
Pottymouth 16:43
Important, important part. I saw a post from, I think, Maria Montes, who's a Venezuelan sports writer, who said, you know how, like the the Cy Young came on after a while, because they was recognized, that pitchers needed some special attention. Maybe we need a catcher award. Maybe we do because catchers, I mean, it's beyond just the defense, it's the brains behind the calling the plays. So and I think
Patti 17:05
so many batting records, yeah, some for catchers, and some not. Some like franchise records and all that. But anyway, we were bad on picking things, but we did get the Cy Young between the two of us. Yeah. So for the American League, you had Cleveland as the American League Central. I had them as a wild card. So I only get partial credit for that. You had Toronto as a wild card. So partial credit for that they, of course, you know, won the yeah east, right? We both had Detroit as wild card. So bad, but better than nationally, really, we kicked ass. I got all three of the conferences in the National League. I had Philadelphia, Milwaukee and the Dodgers, and you had Philadelphia and the Dodgers, and you had Chicago who was a wild card. Wow, we rock. We both had San Diego as a wild card, and then I was the only one who had the Dodgers in the World Series, because you just didn't want to, yes, resisting. So our national league, you know, hunches were pretty good. We sound smart as far as National League, which is very funny, because we both very much tend towards American League for the the, you know, the teams of our hearts. But there you go. Maybe that's why. Maybe because our hearts were in it more for the American League, and so we used more. All right, what do we know as people who follow baseball?
Pottymouth 18:20
Yeah, well, I think, and also i It's always the I'm afraid to say, my team's not going to do well, because then I'm speaking it into existence. So there's that superstition thing, so I'm always going to like because you're very powerful. Yeah, I am so strong. You're so strong, strong. Tell me about the Dodger. All right, so speaking of those Dodgers, last week, I spoke a lot about the Dodgers and the fan protest against the possible visit to the White House for all sorts of reasons, you know, not, not to mention the ownership being invested in ice and all of the problems that are going on In LA as far as scooping people up and kidnapping them and the Dodgers not doing enough to speak out against it, so I apparently was a little bit ahead of the curve. The Washington Post came out with an article yesterday that we will link that goes into this whole conflict. So I appreciate that, because when I was looking at it, was a lot of like individual social media accounts that are trying to come together to make this movement. But if they're getting press like the post, then I think there is hope maybe that some of the Dodgers will grow a little bit of courage and not go to the fighting to say, courage. I thought you were gonna slide a body part. Yes, I was. And then I just, you know, tried
Patti 19:42
to good. I do know you better than I thought. What? Who are
Pottymouth 19:44
you? Yeah, they need to grow some balls. So, just to give a little bit of perspective, here the Dodgers when they first won in the last, you know, few times and 2020 when they went in 21 to Biden. No problem there. Last year, they all went, or including Mookie Betts and Kiki Hernandez, who's the one player who's spoken up against the la situation with the raids. Now, they all went, but it was before the whole, you know, full invasion of La Muki. It's important to note, didn't go to the White House in 2019 under Trump won when he was on the Red Sox. So the Red Sox won the World Series in 2018 that was a really big, controversial trip to the White House in 2019 because the Red Sox split. And right then I felt super shitty. And I guess it sort of happened, you know, about the future of the team, because I was concerned about a split in something that's so important, because it has to do with the identity, because it's split under racial lines, really. And so you need to, like, if you're a white dude on the team and you notice your hispanic and black player, you know, teammates not going and you're going worth a question. Yeah. Like, think about that. There's some privilege involved there. So Mookie didn't go. David Price didn't go, Jackie Bradley Jr didn't go. Alex Cora, the fucking manager, didn't go. Because this was right after Hurricane Maria. He's sort of danced around the reasons since then and said stuff like he did that. It wasn't against Trump, per se, but he didn't feel comfortable going while Puerto Rico was suffering so much. So either way, not going. Hector Velasquez, pitcher, Mexican pitcher, didn't go because of things that the fascists in chief had said about all Mexicans being murderers and rapists and something like that. So you know, right now, the team, the Dodgers that is, are being very quiet. No current comments for the team or the players about what their plans are. In the Washington Post article, there was a quotation by a man named Fernando Guerra, who's the director of the center of the study of Los Angeles at Loyola Marymount University. And he talked about the catch 22 situation that they're in now, because he said, if you decide no, the wrath of Trump and the right wing will come after you. And the common thought is that fans get over things like this, but the addictiveness, yeah, exactly, and that. And the thing is, I don't think they will. I think that they've taken advantage of their Hispanic fans for too long and damaged them too much. And there are a lot of people who are super pissed off, and there are a lot of movements online, and, you know, in person to get them to not go to the fucking white house. So I think he's wrong when he says that fans will get over it. But as far as the wrath of Trump coming at you, like, I don't know, what the fuck can he do?
Patti 22:51
Yeah, it's like to find wrath. I mean, he the vitriol will spill. There is no doubt about that. But can he inflict actual harm to like, the wealthiest baseball team or one of the wealthiest baseball teams, maybe, I mean, I can say this, because it's not about me, right, but I would think that more organizations with the clout of the Dodgers standing up, right is such an important like rallying point, it means something to a lot of people who may not be paying attention to other lower level but they love the Dodgers. So if the Dodgers say this is wrong, maybe I should think about this more and say this is
Pottymouth 23:30
wrong. Yeah. And now I'm really wondering about, you know, last year's and not having known about the ownership investments, how much of a push that was from ownership, and how much control does ownership have over this group now, right? What do people's contracts, right? Well, and that thing too, like, so what if, I guess, he will have resigned. I'm just thinking like, how would this influence free agents? And, you know, do they want to speak out against the team? Like, maybe Kike isn't going to be feeling free to say anything now, because his contract is banging.
Patti 24:02
That's very interesting. I also wonder, I'm guessing, there's nothing in the CBA about like, if you are the champion, you are required to write. I wonder, I you know, maybe
Pottymouth 24:17
no. I mean, you know, they all sat out for the Red Sox, so there was no wrath then, or at least
Patti 24:23
limited wrath. Interesting. I also want to talk about the Dodgers, but I want to talk about it with my transportation nerd hat on. So, you know, full disclosure, I work in a Department of Housing and Community Development. I work with planners, I work on mass transit. I work on, you know, improving safety for pedestrians and cyclists and, you know, promoting mass transit. So I'm really amused by this story. There's a proposal, which I think is actually pretty cool. Okay, back up. Remember when the game started speeding up because of, like, the time, the pitch clock and all that? And there was this whole thing about. In Los Angeles, that meant that everybody missed the first four innings because of traffic, right? There is a proposal for an aerial tramway. Oh, that's so cool to connect the last mile between downtown's Union Station. Now the stadium brilliant. It's $500 million but not public funded. It's privately funded. That also huge. And what the what the hope is, is that people will take busses and trains to get to Union Station and then hop on this aerial tramway, which can move 5000 fans each direction per hour. It's a five minute ride. It's only one mile. It's a five minute ride. That's they can move a whole boat load or a tram load of people, very quickly, and that last mile is probably like the most snarly bit of the drive, right? So I spend a lot of time at city council meetings and loving every minute for for real. It's a tiny town, but some things are universal, and here's some of the things. So LA, city council isn't in charge of this tramway, right? It's like that they've got, like, their the transit authority, right? Their Metropolitan Transit Authority is in charge of that. That's who is proposing this, that's who's going to get the funding for this. But the city council can recommend or not recommend. And so they voted 12 to one to tell the transit authority killer project what and why? Well, let me tell you why what they said was, and I'm picturing very specific people who make public comments at our council meetings. They say, Okay, well this part I probably was probably people would just drive to Union Station because a lot of fans live outside bus and train reach and that makes sense to me, which means, please expand your public transportation, right? The answer is, not stop public transportation. Figure out ways to reach those people. But the part that makes me shake my head and say, I know exactly who you are. Are the folks who say that we're concerned about okay, traffic tie ups during construction, and the folks who live in low income areas are going to be stuck with these eyesores, and there's going to be like, 150 trees cut down. And I got to say 150 trees sounds like a lot, but compare the environmental impact of losing those trees to 1000s of cars sitting in traffic for 1000s of hours, right? I think that is a trade off, but they're speaking for residents of neighborhoods they don't live in, and that needs to stop. We need those residents. And actually those residents did speak up. So residents of those neighborhoods, and those neighborhoods include Chinatown, el pueblo Lincoln Heights, they said that this kind of project could have commitments to local hiring and apprentice programs and incubators for small immigrant owned businesses, cultural preservation funds. There's a lot of things you can write into these contracts to lift up these low income neighborhoods. In fact, 400 400 small businesses in Chinatown, el pueblo and Lincoln Heights signed a petition to support the proposal. You might want to listen to the people who live there and own businesses there, as opposed to coming from wherever it is you live, and say, I know best. I know best what should happen in your neighborhood. I also am like all for please find creative ways to use mass transit. And I totally get the they're just going to drive to Union Station and that that piece is fixable as a long term problem.
Pottymouth 28:38
Well, it takes a while. Is, you know, miserable with public transport.
Patti 28:42
Absolutely, is miserable with that. But don't maybe this isn't the hill to die, right? Maybe this will solve some of the problem, especially if it's privately financed,
Pottymouth 28:53
yeah. And if the and I'm thinking like, if those businesses want this to happen, that means that the clogged roads are affecting those businesses. People can't go to that restaurant if there's fucking traffic to Dodger Stadium, you know, every couple of days, you know, during during the season,
Patti 29:09
those folks are not stopping off to, like, get a quick dinner over here, or go to that little grocery store, whatever they're driving through, yeah, or they're just basically, you know, pumping their CO two into the atmosphere and right BlockLess. So absolutely correct. The trap is back.
Pottymouth 29:27
It's so funny.
Patti 29:29
So remember the remember the trap where the rays used to play before they had their little outside season at Steinbrenner field this past year thanks to a passing hurricane, yeah. So hurricane Milton destroyed the roof especially. But once the roof got destroyed, on the top, the interior also got destroyed. So there was $55.7 million of repairs, half of that for the new roof.
Pottymouth 29:54
Oh, they didn't paint it white. I
Patti 29:57
just don't know. So there's, there's new. New ownership. We talked about that before this team was sold. There's a Florida based developer named Patrick zolupski Who is the new like lead owner who that group bought the bought the raise for $1.7 billion in September. They're the group who's now looking for a new home, hopefully by 2029 but in the meantime, the trap is back for the next couple of seasons, and they've advertised that the home opener is going to be April 6. At the top the the construction is not quite done, but it's close. They promise. They promise. But here is my fun fact for you. So again, I alluded to they played outside for the first time ever, and if you remember, they they jiggled that scheduled around so they weren't out there in the hottest part of the summer, right? So, but the rays experienced 17 rain delays over 16 games for a total of 17 hours and 47 minutes. You know, first time ever, because they've been playing inside. I don't know if you remember, but there was that clip of the grounds crew trying to manage the tarp. And I just feel like it was probably a grounds crew who was used to or taking care of the turf at the indoor ballpark having to deal with the tarp, and they did not have enough practice. Tarps are tricky. You know? What else is tricky was that labor negotiation? Oh, fuck yeah. So, so we talked about qualifying offers last last week. The deadline is for us tomorrow, but by the time you hear this, you may already know if anybody took the qualifying offer. But we talked about why one would like accept or turn down a qualifying offer. And then I, when I was reading about, like the labors pieces of this. There was another reason that came up why, if you take a qualifying offer, you get a one year contract, which means you would then it kind of puts off becoming a free agent to next year, and next year is when there's going to be a lockout, almost certainly, that's gonna suck. That's gonna suck. And also, is it gonna change your ability to be signed as a free agent, because our owner is going to assume you're going to work less. Why? You know, because you're gonna get paid during a lockout, right? So is it gonna affect that? So that might mean that, if you were like tossing around, maybe I would accept this offer. You might not, because you don't want to be forced into free agency to begin with next year, when you might get a multi
Pottymouth 32:28
year deal this year, two years is better than one at this point.
Patti 32:31
Yeah. So the general managers met in Las Vegas. We got that in a minute this past week, and a lot of them said they're not really. They're not factoring that potential lockout into free agency deals for this year. They're all very much holding the lines like we're just thinking about next season. We're just thinking about this coming season. That's it. Just want to win right now outside of our mind. Okay, okay. While these meetings were going on, the lead negotiators for the league and also for the players union met to have some preliminary talks and not starting negotiations yet that spring. But it's not uncommon to have a couple of conversations, just to kind of get a feel for where each side is about major issues. And this is my second favorite quote that I'm going to share with you. It is, unsurprisingly, the players and owners do not share the same perspective at this point. Oh, who said that? Shocking observers. Observers to this process. So the formal negotiations will start in the spring. The collective bargaining agreement expires December 1 and 2026 and the you know, everyone saying, yeah, there's going to be a lockout. And also this lockout will likely result in missing games, and games have not been missed due to lockouts since the 1995 strike. So it's been a long, damn time now, the owners are meeting this week, this coming week, in New York, and their sort of approach to bargaining is going to be discussed there. So you know, hold tight. We'll see if anything leaks that we can share about how that goes but yeah, right now, everyone's like, Yep, they're gonna want salary caps. The Union does not want salary caps. It'll be an impasse. There's gonna be a lockout. We're gonna miss games.
Pottymouth 34:12
Man, my brain's still trying to wrap around the fact that 95 was a long time ago. I'm like, wait, it was just in 90 Oh, yeah, that was a long time ago.
Patti 34:21
You know why we're old?
Pottymouth 34:25
All right? As we start a little bit of international baseball, start with my biggest like, sort of love, hate thing that I've been following for international Baseball, baseball united, I first talked about, I think, back in episode 326, which was in 2023 about this new league based in Dubai. And I had a lot of questions, and I still have a lot of questions, because, you know, it's hot in Dubai, and the human rights aren't so great in Dubai. And what the fuck is going on
Patti 34:57
in order to report those things
Pottymouth 34:59
for you? The weather and human rights stuff like that. And they're just, it sort of was like there were all these former All Star, big names from MLB that jumped on right away. And I was trying to figure out which way is the money flowing? And I think the guy who's the founder, he's gonna just be a fucking billionaire or something. I need to look into his finances more. Because everybody Yeah, I guess so. I guess so. So. Anyway, the 2023 was when the league first started in October, and then that November, they had that all star game, and it featured all sorts of players, like Robinson Cano and big sexy and like all these great names, but we were waiting for an actual season, because it seems like that was putting the camel before the horse, the camel before the cart. Yeah, so it just seemed a little presumptuous to have all stars before having a season. Anyway, the season started. The season started this past Friday. Very exciting. It is going for almost a month, November 14 to December 7, and there are four teams. And so after that, almost a month worth of play, there will be a championship series two out of three games, which is very anti the way I look at champions, like I love five out of seven is better than three out of five. And I think we're talking about it was Puerto Rico that has out of nine. And I was like, holy cow, that's lots of fun, but two out of three bad. I guess if you get I think the coolest thing about this, though, is at least on their opening night. I don't know if they continued this, but the starters came out on camels. So if you're gonna ride a camel, where would you sit?
Patti 36:54
Was it a one hump camel or
Pottymouth 36:55
two? One hump camel? So I guess that the dromedary, I think, in front of the hump, which said, yeah, they sat
Speaker 1 37:01
behind the hump. I would think on top, I don't know, like a two
Patti 37:06
hump camel. You would be between the home, right? But why wouldn't you be, like, between
Pottymouth 37:10
the neck? I don't know. We gotta examine some video. They're sitting behind the house like a weird there must be something about writing camels behind that. So they have a new field. The last time that I talked about this, they were actually playing on a converted cricket field, because that is much more popular in that neck of the woods. But now they have a stadium named after Barry Larkin. Barry Larkin field, baseball United stadium. That's how you know it's named after right outside of Dubai. By the way, for those of you don't know, Barry Larkin is still is no no just reds, no socks, just red. 19 years with the reds, Hall of Famer, world series champion, MVP, and 12 time all stars. So he deserves a fucking field. It's too bad he has to go all the way to Dubai for it. But, you know, the other unfortunate thing about this field is they based it off of Yankee Stadium, so it's the same dimensions. All right, it is open air in Dubai, and seats right now, 6500 but it has modular seating, so they're hoping to expand. So you would think open air in Dubai maybe, you know, they're starting small, so they have this is why, probably the season is one month, because I did check the temperatures in Dubai in this one month, and it is rather nice in the evening, 70s and 80s. So that's lovely. Totally fine. Their games start at 8pm in Dubai, which is 7am here. But the good news is you can watch them for free streaming on the baseball United platform. Tickets are super reasonable. If you want to get yourself to Dubai, 13 to $32 but the beer is $13 the good news is, they do serve beer, so there's that. So when we talked about the all star game, there were all these flashy names of former MLB players, like players that were no longer playing, but still would be fun to watch. Read, you know, big, sexy Bartolo colon, so those guys are gone. But what I like about it is it does seem like they are working toward building the local players. It's a combination between that and the International element is amazing, because they have Japanese players and Korean players and Venezuelan players and Dominican players. So I think it's also another avenue for players who are looking for some place to be seen. They don't have any more of the former honorary GMs, which in the All Star game were Barry Larkin, Adrian Beltre, Felix, Hernandez and Nick Swisher, who are all part owners. So who knows how much money they've put into this. So there are four teams, India, Mumbai, Cobras. So no longer do they have Robbie Ross or angelton Simmons, who are the MLB stars, but they do have. Of Karen Patel, who is the first Indian born drafted MLB player, who was drafted by the White Sox in 2019 he's in as well as two other Indian born players now. So those two extra players have been added on since two years ago. Also Pakistan, so India, Pakistan. I had mentioned when we first talked about that being a really, you know, kind of intense rivalry there for horrible, like, historical political reasons. But apparently they play each other in cricket a lot too. So this isn't out of the norm for India and Pakistan to be playing against each other. The Karachi monarchs, that is where Big Sexy was playing, but Jeremy Profar jerks and profilers brother is still playing there, so he didn't make it big in MLB. Had a little bit of time, but he's playing for Karachi, plus three Pakistani born players. So that wasn't true two years ago. So just giving these guys a place to start, and who knows? You know, maybe they'll be able to make it to the World Baseball Classic at some point. There are no Arabian players on the United Arab Arab Emirates teams, and they have two of them, and they renamed both of them. So the first time around, it was the Dubai wolves, and now they're the Arabia wolves, Didi Gregorius and Robinson can no were there before? No longer. The Abu Dhabi Falcons have been renamed to the Mideast Falcons. No Panda, who Pablo Sandoval was there last time. What I don't feel great about is their rule changes, and not because I don't think it's fun like I do enjoy banana ball. I like funky rules. I think that makes it a show, but that makes it not baseball, right? So I think banana The good thing about banana ball is they have those, those rules where, like, you know, fan catches a foul ball and it's an out, but it's called Banana ball. They're still calling this baseball, but they have this money ball, where each manager has three money balls a game that doubles the home run. So if you have a guy coming up to bat, and you think he's going to hit a Homer, then you can use your Moneyball and you get double the runs. That seems cheesy. Pablo Sandoval, by the way, hit the first in the world six run home run in an all star in the All Star game. So that's how that works. They have three designated runners per game, which is not a pinch runner, because the batter can come back. Okay? So that, and also, yeah, I mean, I don't hate any of them. It's just not baseball, right? So I don't understand how this can be another form of international baseball. I mean, even in like Japan and Korea and Taiwan, they're not tweaking the rules this much. This is like, and the other thing that's kind of cool, but still not baseball. There's no extra innings, so if you're tied at nine, you go into a home run derby. You have two batters per team. They each get 10 pitches, boom, I like a shootout. Yeah? And the coolest thing is, if it's still tied after that, it's sudden death. Oh, fun, yeah, okay, I'm good with that. Yeah? So Fun, fun stuff. So that's what's happening in Dubai. Watch on baseball united. There'll be a link in the show notes, and I gotta catch a game and see if the camels are still coming out. So
Patti 43:10
camel information for you. Oh, do you good? Good. You know, I don't know the answer to where you're supposed to sit on a one camel, because in all the photos there's saddles or blankets that are sort of masquerading the whole hump situation. But I want you to know that Mr. Google, of course, gave me the AI, you know, summary first. And so here are two sentences of of important information about riding camels. Riders sit higher than on a horse. Okay? Getting on and off requires the camel to sit. Some say the experience is thrilling and teaches them to leave childhood dreams unfulfilled.
Unknown Speaker 43:48
Unfulfilled. Yes, I think is
Patti 43:51
not a positive as far as as Uncle Google is reading here, but your childhood dreams may have been better like because everyone dreams of riding a camel, right? I'm sure I'm just
Pottymouth 44:02
thinking of, like, these Japanese pitchers showing up and being like, all right, you got to go in on the camel. Like, here you go.
Patti 44:08
No, get on your camel. Just Say No to the camels. I mean, I used to work in public health, and so I was always like, anti camel. But I'm at the cigarette,
Pottymouth 44:17
anti camel. All right, man, I'm gonna have to cruise through the rest of this international, sort of international, slash, National Baseball breakdown, Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic just had a game, an awesome, actual All Star game, and it was really all stars from the Puerto Rican league in the Dominican League, who played this past weekend in Citi Field. I've been leading up to this for a few weeks, and it has happened, and the Dominican Republic. To nobody surprise, 162 over Puerto Rico, the MVP of the game was Emmanuel Rigas. And I'm saying that because keep an eye on this guy. He's the number four twins prospect. He hit the only home run of the game. He also singled and walked and crossed the plate twice. The big to do about this. Game Is it allowed New York to show some love to Robinson Cano, because he left there under sort of sad circumstances after a very gloried career. He, by the way, in the game, went one for three with a walk, and they pulled him in the seventh so that folks could applaud, you know, pull them off the field in the seventh. And actually, there's a lot of like video of him teary, very teary eyed and emotional. The whole Dominican team wore number 24 in his honor, which must have been really confusing during the game, but, you know, that's that. So he finally got that moment at Citi Field. He was a Yankee for a very long time, and I, you know, still picked him as a baseball boyfriend back when he was on Seattle. And then there was that missing all of 2021 due to his second ped suspension, you know. And that's where we were, like, you know, not so we're not so dogmatic about the whole ped thing. There's a lot of, you know, extenuating circumstances. There's so many questions around it. However, you got to learn, because that's the system, you know. And so he missed 80 games in 2018 But that wasn't enough. So I think coming back after 21,000
Patti 46:09
times to become a habit,
Pottymouth 46:13
apparently, yeah, so he was coming back to the Mets, and sort of, you know, didn't do the Mets, right? So I think that's why coming back to Citi Field was such an important thing, because he was supposed to be helping out the Mets him a lot and not so much. He ended up with 12 really sad games with them, and bounced around, went to San Diego and Atlanta, and that was the end of his MLB career. However, he's done a lot outside of MLB, and he left MLB with a 301 lifetime average, not too shabby, in 335 home runs. He also played in the World Series, and, you know, the Yankees in 2009 he played in the World Baseball, won the World Baseball Classic in 2013 with Dominican Republic, plus played three Caribbean series with the DR two championships with the Mexican League, and was MVP in the Mexican league. And he's not done yet. So he was very clear about this being, you know, definitely a goodbye to Citi Field, but he's going to keep playing wherever he can, keep playing. Lot of former baseball boyfriends on the Puerto Rico team, Martina, my guys, all of my guys, Martin Maldonado, the Maya machine, and isan Diaz, the mascots took sides. Mr. Met was in the Dominican Jersey, and Ms met was in the Puerto Rican jersey. So, all right, there's that. I hope
Patti 47:33
they're gonna work out. Okay? I hope so.
Pottymouth 47:36
Makeup, yeah. All right, so just quick on the actual baseball that's happening now in lead on, keep your eyes open on the Dominican Republic, because Fernando tatis, Senior daddy, is been managing the estrellas Orientales for a while. Actually, there's a lot of background there, not going to go into it, but he says that his son is coming soon. So that's a big Junior. He hasn't been there for at least a few years in the Venezuelan League. Another Junior showing up, Ronald Acuna Jr, is coming back the to the tiberones de Huayra starting maybe soon end of November, beginning December. Unclear how long he's going to be there, but this is really important, because he officially retired in the middle of the eighth inning in game two of the playoffs two years ago, when the tiburones were playing against the Leones de Caracas. They were at Caracas. It was an away game, and there was a big to do with dad in this in the stands. And, you know, there was something about him show boating, a home run, and then dad bragging, and then other fans around throwing shit at dad. And finally, Ronald walked off and said, I am leaving this game in the middle of fucking playoffs, leaving the game, leaving the team, and leaving Venezuelan baseball. Well, he's back so, you know, I guess so his brother. So this is, this is like adding to like, the mystique and the mystery here his brother, Luis Angel, I talked about a couple weeks ago that he's on my team, the cardinales de Lara, and right now, the cardinales de Lara are in sixth place. This is important, because the fifth and sixth place teams at the end of the season, which is not for a while, but still fifth and sixth place teams, battle for the wild card. So you want to be in fifth, you know, ideally in front of that. But six, not lower than six. Right now, the tiburones are seventh, so Ronald, coming in, is trying to bump his brother's team. Wow. Yeah. Okay, so I don't know what Dad's gonna do in the sand stands, but stay tuned, and I will let you know which Acuna
Patti 49:50
is. Which Acuna prevails, prevailing Acuna. Yeah, wow. So, hey, surprising no one our police blogger is all about sports betting. God. A lot. I'm gonna remind you that the general manager's meeting was in a casino in Las Vegas last week, a casino, you know, they do there. They gamble there. All right, so we talked last week. The breaking news right before we recorded was Emmanuel Class A and Luis Ortiz were both, you know, indicted on many, many charges revolving around fixing pitches, right? Yeah, so Emmanuel classic was arrested at JFK on Thursday. Remember, he was out of the country. He voluntarily returned from the Dominican Republic. They he was met at JFK and arrested. He pleaded not guilty, and here's the list of of the charges, wire fraud conspiracy, wire fraud conspiracy, honest services, wire fraud conspiracy, money laundering conspiracy and conspiracy to influence sporting contests by bribery. That's not a conspiracy. His went back to his charges. Went back to 2023, he was also accused of getting Ortiz involved this summer, he is the reason Ortiz got involved. So he was released on a $600,000 bond. GPS monitor, you know, surrender your passport. You can't travel, except for, you know, Ohio and New York, because that's work for you, right? Luis Ortiz was, was arrested last Sunday, right? He was still in the country. He pled not guilty on Wednesday at a $500,000 bail. Also, you know, GPS monitoring. You need to center the passport, the whole thing. They're both due back in court December 2. So if the league suspends them, remember, they're still under investigation with Major League Baseball. These are criminal charges that's different than any investigation that Major League Baseball does. If the league suspends them, Cleveland doesn't have to pay their 2026 salaries, right? Because they are suspended right now. They are on admin paid leave. So Ortiz is still pre arbitration. He earns about $800,000 a year, which is a lot of money, but it is not the $6 million that class A is due for the final year of his five year contract. Should he not yet be suspended? Right? So Cleveland cannot act on that maybe 6000 or more, $6 million or more freed up salary until they know for sure. If it's freed up, they know they're not going to have these pictures, probably, but if they're not suspended, they're on the hook for that salary, and they can't make any big moves, because $6 million yeah, right, is a lot of salary they're planning on not having them playing, but what are they gonna do about it? Right? Yeah. So Stephen vote got Manager of the Year again this year. Part of it was like the historic, the largest in season comeback in Major League history, but also because of how well he managed the team, in the face of both the scandal being sort of this overarching like vibe killer, but also missing class A and Ortiz from the roster, right? So that was kind of part of his he got through all of this. So we talked before about, can we just get rid of prop bets? Those are the best. There are very specific individuals which are the reason there's all these threats on people's lives and all of and all of this possible influence on players to do things differently, to possibly throw games or throw bad pitches, or whatever it is, the league made a super weak announcement last Monday. They made an agreement with their the sports books with which they work, to cap wagers on individual pitches to $200 so that would eliminate, like, this whole thing from happening, as far as pitches are concerned, because 200 bucks as opposed to 1000s and 1000s of dollars. But what about everybody else? So I think this is too little. I think it's, you know, an example of a baby step, right? But what about every frickin buddy else with all of these prop bets, right? I mean, there have been like, the Union wants the prop bets gone. Scott freaking Boris wants the prop bets gone, right? A lot of people want these gone. And yet the league is like, well, you know, the gambling really helps us get good stats.
Pottymouth 54:03
It's ridiculous, because so many players are coming out now talking about their threats, yes, so many, yeah. And why is
Patti 54:10
that okay, right? Why is that okay? Which is why the players union is against him, because they want safety for right? Their members would want also the Senate Committee on Commerce, science, transportation, who oversees professional sports, sent a letter to the commissioner on Friday about a new integrity crisis, about the sports betting, right? Because, you know, I mean, now it's like NBA, it's a lot of places where it's having an effect. But they asked Rob Manfred, so we want more details on Class A and Ortiz, because why did it take you three years to figure out right class, a was doing this when other you know, other folks who have been prosecuted, you found like that, what is the deal? What's happening? And one of the things that it said the letter was, in light of these recent developments, MLB must clearly demonstrate how it's meeting its responsibility to safeguard America's pastime. I can't wait to see the. Answer to that,
Pottymouth 55:01
I'd like to see Manfred sweat under some lights there. Oh
Patti 55:05
my gosh. Okay, so we're gonna cross train with football. All right, my subtitle here is booing the fascist in chief, or what's in order to do? Oh, yeah. So Okay, last Sunday, yeah, we did. Last Sunday, the fascist in chief went to the commander's lions game to their current Stadium, which is, in fact, in Maryland. And if you didn't know that, you would know that because Governor Wes Moore, the governor of Maryland, also went to this game, and he recorded a video in the governor's suite saying, I just want to remind people, welcome to Maryland, and I'm proud to be the commander in chief of the Maryland National Guard. Yeah, this man is so running for president. He's so running for president. So some ways, yeah. So the fascist in chief arrived late and left early, and he did not shy away from his arrival. He arrived by Air Force. Frickin one. How Much Money buzzing buzzing the field during the first quarter, per the Washington Post, it said they said during Okay, remember, the government was closed. The federal government was closed at this time. During the stoppage, the military doesn't have the funds for military flyovers at sports events. The President, we know by now can do whatever he wants, so he watched from the owner's box. Josh Harris, the owner of the the commanders, is kind of in a pickle, right? So this is kind of goes back to what you were saying before, about, like, the Dodgers visiting the White House. Damned if you do, what's he gonna what? What kind of, what's he gonna rain down on you if you don't invite if you keep him out of the owner's box, if you say anything against him, there's, you know, their new stadium being built, which he may or may have any control over, he thinks he thinks he has control over. There's a lot of things that can happen. But also, the fan base here in Washington is not a Florida fan base. It's not a Georgia fan base. It's not a an Arizona fan base, right? So he was the president, was roundly booed, yeah, and flipped off. And the Washington Post was really great about it. It said many of the fans, the fans, may have witnessed the occupation of their streets by the National Guard protested ICE raids. They were likely part of the 93.4% of DC voters who voted against Trump's second term. So Maryland, DC, Virginia, has like more federal workers or recent federal workers than anybody else, right? So many federal or recent federal workers who were either laid off or currently furloughed at the time and not knowing if they were going to get paid. And they point out that the commander's new stadium will be built in a community that roundly has rejected this president, and it will be filled by fans who remember what it was like to spend 40 plus days without a paycheck.
Pottymouth 57:43
Absolutely, and this is why he will never be able to throw out a first pitch at nats Park. It would just, it would be so resounding, even more so with baseball. Yeah, I think there's
Patti 57:55
a switch in his head that turns booze into cheers. Yeah? Like, oh, it's loud. It must be cheering, yeah?
Pottymouth 58:00
Well, it's, I mean, the the Fox News Feed, cut out the booze and the but the one that I saw, he looks kind of oblivious to it. Like, yeah, he took a minute to start, and then he just starts talking. Everybody's fucking booing, and he just keeps going,
Patti 58:15
yeah, yes, okay, wasn't that a great flyover? It was like, Yeah, you could put some people with that flyover. You could have funded some healthcare with that
Pottymouth 58:21
flyover. Yeah, these people who are not working could have gotten paid
Patti 58:25
briefly. We're going to cross train with the with the professional women's hockey league, because they're doing a really cool thing that I'm taking advantage of. They are having a they're doing a tour. They're doing a tour to 16. They're gonna play 16 neutral site games in this season. So if you don't live in a town, in a city with a professional men's hockey league team, you may live in a city that they're going to visit this year. So do I have my tickets to see New York play Montreal, in Washington, DC in January? Yes, I do. They largely selected cities that have NHL teams. They're playing in those arenas. That's great because, like we've said a million times before, you you legitimize women's sports by hosting them in places where the men's sports play. It shows they are worthy. It shows that they are equal. Go see these fantastic women play hockey. I am if you want to go to the one in Washington, let me know. Maybe I'll see you.
Pottymouth 59:25
That's awesome. Well, speaking of Washington women, our Washington spirit, are going on to the finals, and they sold out in 72 hours. Audi field, which is where DC United, a much less successful team than the spirit, especially recently, plays so power, power to Yeah, for sure, yeah. And, hey, we have more women playing baseball right now. We're recording on November 17. On the 20th is going to be the first draft. So there are four teams Boston, the first draft of what of the women's professional baseball league, which. So amazing. I mean, talk about like progress since we first started this podcast that, you know, we thought this would be a great idea someday, but holy shit, it's happening now, Boston, New York, San Francisco and LA. And I am dying to know who gets picked for what, for sure. So follow that draft and and follow the women who are some of the major names to be drafted. Follow them on social media, because it's amazing just to see how excited they are for this prospect of playing with all women. You know, they've always been the one on the team that's had to struggle through stuff as well, unless they're on the one national team, right? That's it, right? And they talk about that, but that's like, such a, you know, a short amount of time, but now they're going to be a professional baseball player, which is
Patti 1:00:51
so important. And I think, or at least I hope, that some of those games during the season, whether it's just the all star game or others, but will also be at neutral sites, yeah, so that more places than those four cities will have a chance to see professional women's baseball so we will report back on how that draft goes at next week's episode. Wow. So that's all pretty exciting. We want to know what you are up to. Do you please let us know if you decide to go to some women's hockey games, because I think that's super cool. It does sound cool. You can find us on social media.
