00:00We got a three-game set coming up here, and we told you the Yankees fresh off of already being
00:04on the West Coast and sweeping through the San Francisco Giants. Now going to try to do the
00:08same with the Mariners. Don't know if they can get there. Why? Mariners are pretty good as well.
00:12Monday's pitching matchup, Weathers versus Castillo. Then Tuesday, Freed versus Gilbert.
00:17Freed was fantastic on opening night, working through some things. Wednesday,
00:21Schlittler and Kirby, who Schlittler was also very good in his debut in 2026.
00:26This is a good preview, Craig. I'm excited for this series.
00:29Yeah. Obviously, one of the marquee series going into next week. That happens a lot when the
00:33Yankees are there. On my Newswire show, I try to stay away from it because so many Yankee fans on
00:40my team, on my production team, it's sort of annoying. I will say this. Look, you mentioned
00:47Freed and Schlittler, so let's start there. Both of those pitchers were fantastic against the Giants.
00:52I don't care that the Giants couldn't hit. Those starts were great. You are getting some horses
00:56here from Seattle on the other side Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. The Yankees acquired Ryan
01:02Weathers from the Marlins in the offseason. Weathers made his first spring start, Donnie.
01:07You may remember throwing almost 100, and everyone said that the Yankees ripped off the Marlins.
01:12What are the Marlins doing? What a trade. And then Weathers preceded to get destroyed in every start
01:17the rest of the spring. So what do we really know here? Weathers is going to strike out a lot
01:23of
01:23Seattle batters, but is he going to get deep into the game? That will be the question because he is
01:29the back end of the Yankees rotation. I don't think that they're expecting that. Five, six innings,
01:33maybe maximum, maybe even four, by the way, against Seattle. But there's no doubt strikeouts are going
01:39to be piling in this weekend between, or next week, between the Yankees and Mariners. Look at those
01:44six pitchers. They're all high strikeout performers. Absolutely. Should be a fantastic series. And also
01:50one of those early previews in the month of March. And I guess one of those games would take place
01:55in
01:55April, technically at this point. Long way to go before we get to September, October, and November
01:59of baseball, which would be the World Series.
