00:06Dan Dickerson with the call
00:08we have some
00:10ticket texts here
00:13imagine how bad the Tigers
00:15offense would be without McGonagall
00:16that's from Mark at home
00:19sure yeah imagine how bad
00:20they'd be without Cole Keith
00:22call up Clark that's from Devin
00:24I don't think it's going to happen
00:26you know it's but it would
00:28you know what the hell
00:29can't do any worse I mean
00:32what the 32 and 50
00:34since July 8th no it's not about
00:36doing any worse sure you can't do any worse
00:38than what's going
00:40on with I mean help
00:42McKinstry, Veerling
00:44Riley Green, Spencer Targles
00:46like okay you go down the list
00:48and Meadows actually has
00:50played well so right it's not
00:52about
00:55about that
00:56it's more about are you
00:58doing harm to Max Clark
01:00by bringing him up
01:02right
01:02and putting him in a situation
01:04that he's not ready for
01:06Chris from Fenn says the Tigers
01:07are making it hard but still believe
01:09it's way too early
01:10hate to say 40 game rule
01:12but really to a small
01:14set of sampling this early
01:16is nuts
01:18Tigers are 16 and 34
01:21in their last 50 games
01:22the team is broken
01:23I mentioned the 32 and 50
01:26since July 8th
01:27but hey
01:28I know they're the same names
01:29but a totally
01:31different
01:33team
01:35right and we
01:37I mean
01:37okay we do this on both sides
01:39and we always think that
01:40each guy is
01:43going to be better from year
01:45one to year two
01:46and Cole Keith is
01:48Kevin McGonigal is a nice
01:49addition
01:50hell
01:52Javere's back
01:53but
01:55you also have to take a look
01:57and say well who's not
01:58going to perform
01:59like they did last year
02:01or who's going to perform
02:02like they did at the end
02:03of last year
02:03and right now it's Riley Green
02:04Torkelson
02:05Veerling
02:07McKinstry
02:07it's all of them
02:08Veerling didn't even give
02:09much last year anyway
02:10so and you had to bring him back
02:12Jemai Jones
02:14he's what
02:150 for 10
02:17yes
02:17yeah
02:19so they're not getting
02:20that kind of stuff
02:21and look
02:22I know he's really
02:23good for
02:24certain pitchers
02:26at times
02:27Jake Rogers
02:28can't hit
02:30no
02:31we're looking at offense
02:33right
02:33he's better hitting better
02:34than Jemai
02:35the thing with Rogers
02:36he's got one hit
02:38he's got one hit
02:39Jake Rogers has one hit
02:40okay
02:40the combined
02:42studio
02:42and Gov
02:43and Greg
02:44the same amount
02:45of hits
02:45as Jemai Jones
02:47the thing with Jake Rogers
02:48is he's the backup
02:49we know what he is
02:50and most backup catchers
02:52do what he does
02:53right
02:53and had a nice throw out
02:55yesterday
02:55catchers usually can't even
02:56hit in baseball
02:57to be honest
02:57well remember the guy
02:58they had last year
02:59he's back in Toledo
03:00and Nito
03:00he was pretty good
03:01when he was
03:01the backup
03:02when Rogers
03:03got her
03:03spot duty
03:04yeah
03:05look
03:06that's the least
03:07of their worries
03:07the backup catcher
03:08here is the only way
03:11I would
03:12think that
03:15there is a
03:17percentage of a chance
03:19that they would bring up
03:20Max Clark
03:21is if they
03:22have already made
03:24the determination
03:24that they're
03:26they wanted to bring up
03:27Wensiel Perez
03:28and
03:30you're going to send down
03:31Jemai Jones
03:32if you then
03:33are saying
03:34okay well if
03:35Parker Meadows
03:36can't go for
03:3810 days
03:39right
03:39do you bring him
03:41up for
03:42knowing it's a
03:43it's a limited
03:44amount of time
03:45hey you're going to
03:45get exposed to
03:46major league
03:47pitching
03:48major league
03:48ballparks
03:49major league
03:50situations
03:50for the next
03:5110 days
03:52and then you're
03:53going down
03:54whatever you do
03:55you do
03:55but you're
03:56going down
03:57no matter what
03:58so if there is a
03:59if there's a
04:00small window
04:01that they say
04:03we just want to see
04:04like we need a body
04:05and bring him up
04:06he's hitting a well
04:07let's just see
04:08what happens
04:08then
04:09I could see
04:10that as
04:11the only
04:12remote possibility
04:13of bringing up
04:15Max Clark
04:15right look
04:16and I don't think
04:17they will do it
04:17and if he
04:18if he wasn't
04:19lighting it up
04:20thus far
04:21in AAA
04:22it probably
04:23wouldn't even be
