00:00Well, Greg, you mentioned it earlier, Peyton Tolley, seven punch-outs against the Yankees yesterday.
00:05No jinx.
00:05No jinx.
00:06Let's just be clear.
00:08Had Big Stash on the show last week, Friday, I think it was.
00:12Legend.
00:13No jinx.
00:14Doesn't believe in the moon landing, basically Mr. USA.
00:17Peyton Tolley was asked if he feels like his mechanics are in a different place than they were.
00:22Here was Peyton Tolley on his pitching style.
00:24I wouldn't say so.
00:25I'd say I was just, I think it was more of a mindset thing.
00:28I was just trying to fly, like I said, fly through the zone, be aggressive, and, like, just be confident
00:34in my stuff.
00:35I think recently I've been trying to, like, hopefully this makes sense, but I've been trying to pitch, and my
00:42game isn't really that.
00:43I just got to go out there and take my best stuff out there and fly through the zone, be
00:50aggressive, and pitch offensively.
00:53Chance Curtis, that he is your number five when it comes to the rotation, or are they going to wait
00:58because you get an extra year of eligibility if you wait on him?
01:02I think that the best person for Peyton Tolley right now is Brian Baio, and he sucks.
01:08So I would absolutely start the year with Peyton Tolley as your fifth starter.
01:12You would?
01:13Without a shadow of a doubt.
01:14Okay.
01:16Now, is that strategically the best thing to do, considering that you do not, you know, if you bring him
01:21up later, you end up with that extra year of eligibility on the short doe.
01:29So.
01:30I don't care about five years from now.
01:31Yeah.
01:32I just, I mean, who knows what the CBA is even going to look like.
01:36That's what I was just going to go to.
01:37What's, maybe it doesn't even matter this year of all, because usually baseball teams really care about that.
01:43Like, they've always really cared about that.
01:45Maybe this year it doesn't matter with the CBA and everything else.
01:48They're just, let her rip.
01:50I mean, can you, can you believe that they have, they have renewed interest in the game?
01:56They have, like, the Youngs are into it.
02:00And that they are somehow going to have a work stoppage.
02:04Like, neither side can figure it out.
02:07This is a big one, I think.
02:08This is the big one.
02:09The salary cap big one.
02:13So, yeah, I do believe it.
02:14I mean, hockey, I've gone through it.
02:17Yeah.
02:18Yeah.
02:19What was it like when you're, you know, I don't know if you were on the Bruins at the time
02:22of the lockout.
02:23But when your owner is the one that's leading the charge, like Jeremy Jacobs was, was it even more frustrating?
02:29It didn't.
02:31I don't know.
02:32It didn't matter too much.
02:33But it was a little closer to home, right?
02:35Because you had actually met the person.
02:37It felt more personal, I guess.
02:40Whereas, like, the guys on the other team didn't know who Mr. Jacobs was, right?
02:45I did.
02:46I'd met him before.
02:46Like, I'd seen him.
02:47We'd been.
02:48So, that was a little more personal, I suppose.
02:51But at the end of the day, it was all business.
02:53And it was, you know, all 30 owners wanted to do it, not just one.
02:57Do you think it's bad for the sport, though?
02:59When there's a lockout?
03:01Especially for.
03:02Oh, yeah.
03:02Of course, like, it is.
03:03Of course, it's horrible for the sport.
03:05It's horrible.
03:06And it's way worse for the players than it is for the owners.
03:09Like, don't let anybody get fooled by that, right?
03:11It's always worse for the players.
03:13I lost a whole year.
03:16Nobody else lost.
03:17You know, the owners never lose a year.
03:19Their franchise, these baseball franchises are going to go through the roof when they
03:23get a salary cap.
03:24If they lost a year and they can keep doing what they're doing until they're 80, you guys
03:27have to be done in, like, two years.
03:28Correct.
03:29Exactly.
03:29The average, I don't know what baseball is, the average hockey career is three and a
03:33half years.
03:34So, you lose one of them, that's just a lot longer pumping gas.
03:38When you see Jeremy Jacobs now, do you call him chairman?
03:43I say Mr. Jacobs.
03:44Oh, you say Mr. Jacobs.
03:45Yes.
03:45I would, too.
03:47Yeah.
03:48Ken says Mr. Hill.
03:52I talk to chairman every day.
03:55I got to feel like that's successful, dad, if your kid calls you chairman.
03:58Yeah.
03:58Yeah, yeah.
03:59You're very successful if you do that.
04:01Mine calls me jerk.
04:04Wait a minute.
04:05Speaking of kids, several people are texting in.
04:08Did your son have a big hockey game?
04:10Oh, big game last night.
04:11What happened?
04:12Huge game for the Cushing Penguins, winning two to one in overtime last night against Deerfield.
04:18They're on to the semifinals on Saturday.
04:21Wow.
04:21Okay.
04:21It was fantastic last night.
04:22Yep.
04:23So, it was awesome.
04:24Is he a goaltender?
04:25He is.
04:25He's an idiot.
04:26Yeah.
04:26Really?
04:26Yeah.
04:27All right.
04:28There you go.
04:28All right.
04:29That's good.
04:29Yeah, he played great.
04:30It was so much fun last night.
04:31Great news.
04:32Yeah, great news.
04:33Congrats.
04:34What type of parent are you in the stands?
04:35Nah, I hang out.
04:36Yeah, I'm good.
04:37Okay.
04:37Yeah, I've never.
04:38I sit.
04:39I'm on my own.
04:39My buddy was there last night, so the two of us sat together.
04:42I don't really mingle with the other parents.
04:44You're not yelling at the ice.
04:46I don't like to talk to you.
04:48No, not that way.
04:48I don't want to small.
04:49They know nothing about hockey.
04:50I don't want to chit-chat.
04:52Oh, you don't want to chit-chat?
04:52I just want to sit and watch and enjoy.
04:54Yeah, yeah.
04:54But you're not yelling.
04:55Oh, no, no.
04:56I've never yelled once in an arena.
04:58Do you have parents coming up to you?
04:59Like, do you agree with this decision?
05:00Yeah, sometimes.
05:01Most of the time, hockey parents think they know everything.
05:08If he lets in a softy, do they ever throw things at you?
05:11No, they throw things at him.
05:15I usually lead the charge if that's it.
