00:00fayal devers jogging it out all right like manny ramirez used to do wiggy in the sixth inning of
00:06that game last night so what was it like is it long covid or brain fog like what was it i don't
00:12know confusion is it confusion about running the base paths it was the smoke from the canadian
00:17wildfire could have been a tight glute yeah i think it tweaked something i tweaked something
00:21yeah yeah okay so it's probably smart not to give it your all yeah you don't want to you don't want
00:26to try to you know lay it out and then get hurt now you're on the il for 15 days and i mean the
00:32team's already stinking so you're the best hitter so so he is unwilling to step up when needed
00:40at first base or third base yeah uh unwilling to run it out uh but willing to hit the baseball
00:49that's about what uh what rafael devers is willing to do well that's what everybody told me they
00:54wanted him to do at spring training everybody was like just hit the shut up and go hit the
00:58baseball buddy dh no one cares about you in the field we don't care anything you do but hit the
01:03baseball okay now it's like oh can you do other things right but nobody wanted to do nothing else
01:10if everything we've had this i don't know how to do this again well you keep bringing it up i didn't
01:15say anything i brought it up no no but i'm saying the people who go the other way at the reason why
01:20i bring it up changed wiki no it's not the same team as it was in training in spring training
01:25devers playing first base and we've been down listen we circled this cul-de-sac a million times
01:30well that's what's changed no no devers playing first base is not gonna make a difference when it
01:36comes to fielding if anything those guys that are playing there whether it's gonzalez whether it's
01:41toro whether it's so god have done a pretty good decent job when it comes to making plays
01:46in the field gonzalez had another nice play yesterday where he dives out a ball he keeps
01:51it he makes a play at first base if anything those guys are better athletic first baseman
01:57than devers but does it tell you anything why don't you but why don't you hold devers to the
02:02i get a headache when we go this i said he was better in the field i said he hit better i said he
02:09hit better in the field no he plays the field he said i'm a better hitter when i'm able to play the
02:14field uh why does he no longer feel that way but if that's the truth why doesn't he want to play the
02:19field because he is at the point now where it's like all right you want me to play dh all right
02:23this is what i'm gonna do and i'm gonna pout yeah we all know that though like you're beating a dead
02:28horse like we all know that he's pouting no he looked like a dead horse going to first right but
02:32then guess what uh uh the next time up at bat he hit a bomb into uh i thought he tweaked something
02:38how did he hit a home run guess what he's your best hitter do you think it pisses fans off
02:43that he's not running that out no i think it does i think that when he's right i think that
02:49if everything hadn't happened during spring training or the beginning of the season people
02:52wouldn't care no that's the only reason why people are complaining is because of the whole first base
02:57thing no the whole him i don't want to play first base i don't want to play third base if there's none
03:03of that no one gives a crap like no one gave a crap with manny and no one gave a crap no no people
03:08gave a crap with manny we had four lines on manny ramirez wiggy what are you talking about
03:12no one didn't stop it no one cared when he didn't run out of stop it nobody cared that manny didn't
03:19run out ground balls nope nobody cared they didn't nobody cared that is some remarkable revisionist
03:25history it's not remarkable revision it's the facts it's the truth no one cared because you know why
03:30because manny hit the baseball and he was one of your best hitters when it came to average
03:35home runs knocking in rbis no one gave a crap that he didn't leg out a few ground balls here and there
03:41and if anybody says they did they're lying because no one gave a crap when big poppy didn't do it
03:45they want these guys to do exactly what devers is doing he leads your team in home runs he leads
03:51your team in rbis that's what you want here's an 857 text for you on the subaru of new england text
03:57line that says wiggy hitting the baseball includes running when you hit it so thank you for stating
04:05that captain obvious i understand that captain morgan you mean yeah or captain morgan here shot
04:10at apicotti here's joe in the car hello joe hello yeah this is for the uh wiggy would you say you got
04:20the all-city catcher or something like that yes yes he was an all-city catcher and he's correct
04:24yeah yeah wiggy i think this is the reason why see like like curtis said this was the beginning of
04:30the season things change so as the team goes on sometimes you have to kind of like make adjustments
04:39and i think it kind of clearly shows that you're the only one on the show
04:43that strongly believes what you believe in and i think that's the only reason why you coached one
04:50year in brockton they got rid of you it has nothing to do with that joe that let's say you
04:55can joe you can use that joe you can use that every time as i coach in brockton has nothing to do
05:01with it the bottom line is joe and the rest of the hoddles out there that are screaming for devers to
05:07play first base were the same people that were saying devers shut your mouth and go dh and with
05:13devers playing first base believe me it won't make a difference because i think those other guys
05:18actually would do a better job fielding so stop with the fake uh outrage and madness and oh we
05:25can't stand devers it's just fake it's fraudulent no one wanted the guy in the field now all of a
05:31sudden they want the guy in the field but that's the truth everything changed what changed the
05:38injuries to the players in the infield am i speaking english and guess what they moved myers the third
05:44base who you just said myers not playing no but when it initially happened he's the one who played
05:50third and who was at first base in spring training and it was uh cautious was uh first right and then
05:56why isn't he playing anymore he got hurt oh and guess who they moved to first base romey gonzalez and
06:01then romey gonzalez got hurt and they moved toro and so got over i don't want i don't want to fight
06:05with curtis but curtis why didn't they have a plan in place for if tristan casas were to get hurt oh
06:11absolutely that's on the organization so then i think that's the issue i have is that they keep
06:15kind of moving the goalposts when it comes to devers and i'm being told over and over again he's
06:21terrible at third he was terrible at third right i'm guessing he'd be terrible at first because i've
06:25been told that playing first is even harder and then what does all that have to do with running a
06:29ball out well no i i'm saying really i'm saying nobody would i'm saying nobody would care if that
06:35if all like this we nobody would be talking about it right now oh i beg to differ like i i think i would
06:42but you'd be the only one talking about devers not running out of ground ball if devers was said all
06:47right i'll go play first base mornings on weei had caller after caller segment after segment on
06:54manny being manny and what was this i don't remember and i used to listen mornings on weei was
06:59when manny was playing no it was obama was a uh crappy president let's talk politics oh and guess
07:05what um we shouldn't have uh mixed gender bathrooms that's what mornings on weei used to be weei i've
07:12never heard that person weei that's what it used to be okay okay anyway i whatever that's what it
07:17used to be we talked about it on the aaf show we played the audio a billion times of of manny going
07:23sometimes i y'all get out yeah i mean i guess what we say all right manny just keep
07:29but devers is not the hitter that manny ramirez ended up being i like this is pretty good i'm not
07:34saying he's a manny hitter but he's pretty damn good okay i'm not saying he's manny but he's pretty
07:40damn good so let's not let's not try to go down that road they put up a stat last night courtney
07:47brought it up guess what quick it uh he got a lot uh 30 home runs a lot faster than manny did it
07:53in his career manny was oh was manny ahead of him okay he's second all right oh well i thought he was
07:59ahead of manny but either way still pretty pretty good accomplishment who he was on that list with
08:04ted williams manny big wasn't big poppy on that list yeah he's third yeah so no one cares if he
08:11doesn't if he doesn't yawg out the jay is silent a bleed at a second base i think some people care
08:18now only because we should put up a poll where's twitch mitch put up a poll yeah only because he's
08:23a dink and peep that's why people care well do you want a bunch of dinks in your clubhouse
08:27pause well if they're hitting i give me a bunch of dinks that can hit and pitch i'll take them
08:32really yeah okay all right maybe other guys should start acting like dinks a lot of dinks yeah
08:38i mean other than jaron duran who seems like a great guy he's your only other one hitting it
08:43and nevi is doing a good job all right well we are accepting hill notes on this topic or any other
08:49and we will play those back at 9 20 it it's probably way too early for this 617 text which reads since
08:59you've been talking about the roadshow friday are you able to rank them so far i don't i don't i have a
09:07favorite so far you do have a favorite yeah what's your favorite so far it was my favorite
09:12newport was your favorite why would you say that uh because i was shocked like it was the first time
09:18that we had done it in newport we did the the audrain uh show in last fall but that was very
09:23different there was an event around it so people were around the fact that that many people were out
09:28at the landing on thursday night and then that many people were there at 6 a.m at the lobster bar on
09:34friday morning yeah it was well the week before was pretty good too was that one the lobster trap
09:39people showed up in the rain agreed the trading post was jammed yes that place was yeah we lost power
09:45unfortunately the storm kind of ruined that for me but yeah it was unbelievable huh okay so leader in
09:53the clubhouse you have newport for me yes yeah what do we do the night before newport what was that
09:59went to dinner at 22 bowen you sat next to me oh yeah yeah we never sat next and then we had the
10:04opening because la santa was coming we were at the landing yes that place too that was pretty cool
10:09i i killed it karaoke on brown eyed girl if i remember correctly you haven't killed van morrison yet
10:16no i think he's still with us okay good what's your favorite
10:21i would lean to see i'm sentimental about maine like i loved being at the brunswick
10:29goaded goaded it's hard to pick a favorite brunswick's good it really is newport for me
10:35and then i look ahead to this week and to everybody that shows up at the beachcomber
10:43how's the weather looking you want to open up the with the uh curtis weather window real quick
10:47with the assistance of window world of boston i always like the fresh air yeah how does it look
10:55for friday morning uh i'm hoping it improves uh right now it is looking like it'll feel like 54
11:03degrees cloudy skies at the start of the show okay sun may break through into the mid 60s as the day
11:08goes on it's gonna be jammed there friday like it always is thursday full sun 72 degrees in wellfleet
11:14all right so i mean i am doing the rain dance all week i'm hoping that we get two days where it is
11:21just sunny perfect weather because there's no better place in the world than the beachcomber when
11:26it's nice but but we know based on the place in born people show up whether it's sunshine or rain so
11:32that's true i mean it was like you said the trading post was absolutely packed and it was pouring
11:37outside and then just hanging out there like a rainbow at the end of the horizon
11:45is the dive lake winnibusaki on july 3rd but then we're overlooking gloucester too and i think
11:53gloucester is going to be sick right we've never been to the north shore it is like i think that show
11:58is going to be unbelievable except for the fact i can't do the greasy pole well yeah how dare you
12:03there's a 12 year wait list my fault didn't you know that when you started talking about it on the
12:08radio oh yeah definitely i was very well aware and then hampton beach is always lit figured i could
12:14just skip the line you're not skip the line you're not a townie you weren't born and raised in gloucester
12:20that's it how dare you suggest you might be on the greasy pole my apologies we all need to hydrate
12:27before bernie's because that was as hot as i've ever been yeah bernie's is great too it's a great view
12:33now shine if you were allowed to do the greasy pole would you eat beforehand at chick-fil-a uh no i
12:39would probably say that for after because if i take one wrong spill and you know hit my stomach
12:44directly off the pole things could end poorly this is ron in the car hey ron hey how are you i got a
12:53question for wiggy about the whole dev is running the ball off the first base wiggy yeah you were a
12:57tight end correct were you just expected to catch the ball and not run nope or catch the ball and run
13:02as hot as you can afterwards nope catch it and uh run as hot as you can and try to make some plays
13:07okay so what's the difference then there yes you're expected to hit the ball and run it out as hard as
13:13you can oh because in baseball i think if you watch if you watch a lot of baseball games i think guys
13:18tend to when they hit ground balls they know that it's very difficult for them to run it out especially
13:24when you're like dev is and you're dragging a piano on your back well maybe it's time to lose the
13:30piano um but listen seriously a ground ball to the pitch is my i understand that i get that okay
13:36you're not going to beat that out most times but the ball that he hit yesterday he was only out he
13:41was only out because he didn't hustle yeah well he's only out because he slowed down he actually
13:45hustled early and then slowed down right right so if he would have ran through it he's safe so i don't
13:51know if he's safe but he could make uh he was hustle for
13:54you
