00:00He's not knocking on the door, he's knocking it down.

00:03That's bizarre.

00:04Meanwhile, Breslow's like, yeah, he's got more stuff to work on.

00:07So, like, they're not on the same page.

00:08They're never on the same page on anything.

00:10And I think that's a telling answer.

00:12And, by the way, I'm with Cora on this.

00:14Anthony should be up.

00:14He has knocked the door down.

00:16He should be here.

00:17It's either Breslow and or ownership stashing him in AAA,

00:22which at this point is annoying.

00:23I can't believe they didn't call him up yesterday on the off day.

00:25It's really, like, because of Cora's point, like, when he gets called up,

00:29there's going to be that big boost of, like, positive energy around the team.

00:33Like, they're in this losing streak.

00:34They're slipping further and further away from playoff contention.

00:37You call up Roman Anthony, at least for that moment,

00:39there's some good excitement.

00:40And maybe he shows up and hits.

00:42Look at Marcelo Meyer.

00:43I mean, there was a good amount of excitement when he got called up.

00:47So, I still don't really – it has to be a Breslow thing

00:50and or a John Henry thing.

00:51I can't put this on Cora.

00:53You and I have been critical of Cora for most of the years.

00:56Yeah, this ain't it.

00:57No, I'm sure he's begging for Roman Anthony.

00:59Yeah.

01:00And so, no.

01:00Oh, he could definitely use them.

01:03This I'm with Cora on.

01:04But I find that just – and again, that all happened yesterday

01:06here on this radio station.

01:08And I think the difference in answers is telling about Cora and Breslow.

01:12You know what drives me nuts?

01:13They're not on the same page.

01:14The conversations.

01:16Oh, we have conversations.

01:17It's the same thing with Devers.

01:19Oh, we have conversations.

01:20It's not that complicated.

01:21Why do you have to have a daily conversation about whether or not he's playing first base?

01:25He's not.

01:26So, you're not having conversations anymore.

01:27You have to have a daily conversation about Roman Anthony?

01:30Well, you know why.

01:30I don't know the Anthony one as well, but you know why with Devers.

01:33Because he won't do it.

01:34Yeah, but it should just be a quick conversation.

01:36You're playing first.

01:37Fine.

01:37Go get your glove.

01:38Fine.

01:39But he won't do it.

01:39That's why they're having a conversation.

01:40But they've already decided, they being like Cora Breslow front office,

01:44if you want to lump them together,

01:45they've already decided they're not going to make him do it.

01:47So, you think he's going to change his mind?

01:49No.

01:49Okay.

01:50So, stop asking him.

01:50Stop having conversations.

01:51You're wasting your time.

01:53The Roman Anthony thing is...

01:53What do you think about first base?

01:54Yeah.

01:55Still no good.

01:56Oh, okay.

01:56Yeah, yeah.

01:57Third base?

01:59He's like, what?

02:00What did you say?

02:01Third base, they're not even going to ask.

02:03Yeah, but the Roman Anthony one's bizarre, too,

02:04because you can only imagine,

02:06if they really are having these conversations,

02:07they're like, did you see what he did yesterday?

02:09They're like, yeah, he had another rocket ship into the stands.

02:12But keep him down, right?

02:13Like, we don't need him.

02:15Like, did you see the lineup that they're putting out the last few days?

02:18It's embarrassing.

02:18It's screaming for help.
