00:00Starting pitching to me is an event, and the New York Yankees, and this is not a knock on Garrett
00:06Cole, it's not a knock on CeCe Sabathia, it's not even a knock on Roger Clemens and Mike Messina, those
00:12are all great pitchers who all ultimately are Hall of Fame pitchers in my mind.
00:17Right, even if they're not in the Hall of Fame Hall.
00:19But all of them, right, in my mind, all of them were different in this regard.
00:26They came from somewhere else.
00:27Right, you brought them in with these huge expectations, but they came from somewhere else.
00:32And I admit this, when you develop someone, when you watch them grow, it's special.
00:37And I am going to be the IBO to say this, because I think if Sean says it, or Big
00:42Mac says it, there's a shilly factor to it.
00:46I'm going to say it as an IBO.
00:48This is must-watch TV.
00:50He is must-watch TV.
00:52And I know it's only 16 starts.
00:54But you know what?
00:55When it was only 16 starts, we as Mets fans said, happy Harvey Day.
01:00When it was only 16 starts, I was falling in love with Jacob deGrom.
01:05And you mentioned the name Nolan McClain.
01:07It's only been nine for Nolan McClain, and Mets fans are in love.
01:11The New York Yankees haven't developed a pitcher like this in for like ever.
01:16Yeah.
01:17And so, it's only two starts, but it's more than two starts.
01:20You've got to look at the playoff game against Boston.
01:22That's a factor here.
01:24That matters here.
01:25He showed the cojones on the biggest stage.
01:27Right.
01:28So, I'm going to co-sign it.
01:29Like, if I'm a Yankee fan, I'm pitching myself watching this kid pitch.
01:33Because he's mine.
01:35He's homegrown.
01:36He's young.
01:37And I've got to tell you, man, the sky truly is the limit.
01:41Right.
01:41He could be everything you guys are fantasizing about right now.
01:45Because why not?
01:46He throws a million miles per hour.
01:49He's got balls of stone.
01:51Right.
01:51He's got guts.
01:52His wind-up even.
01:54Like, I found myself, because my back is feeling better, I found myself imitating the wind-up in my TV
01:59room the other day.
02:00Is that right?
02:01It's so smooth.
02:02It's so silky.
02:03And so, I don't need to give permission to anybody.
02:07But I give you permission, Yankee fans.
02:09Go nuts!
02:11He's that guy.
