00:00Cabot's it's it's April 25th the Phillies are 10 and a half back Dave Dabrowski considered one of
00:08the better general managers all major league baseball you've got Bryce Harper on this team
00:13this was one of the teams that was supposed to push the Dodgers for the NL pennant what's going
00:19what's going on in Philadelphia what's wrong with them you know my first knee-jerk reaction to
00:26answering this question is to say hey 162 games you know it's it's a very long season look at what
00:31the Astros do year in and year out where they're doing it again right now you know playing horrible
00:37baseball to start and then they're like oh hey you know we're getting close to you know maybe that
00:42third of the way through the season let's turn it on obviously the Phillies could do that right you've
00:47got Zach Wheeler going for the first time today you know he's their quote-unquote ace we don't know
00:53how he's going to look this year as it's his first start out there but getting him back is a
00:57huge
00:58huge piece to this rotation you like you said you've got you've got the lineup whether you're
01:04talking about Harper Schwerber you can go through these guys Turner at the leadoff spot you've still
01:09got all your guys all your sticks but tell me why Brandon Marsh is leading your team in batting average
01:14right now shout out to Brandon Marsh by the way who I am on over one and a half total
01:18bases at plus
01:19164 it's one of my bets that I've made today Brandon Marsh is five for eight off Bryce Elder
01:25hitting 666 off of him or I got to double check that number but five for eight off of him
01:32all the way back around to answering your question something is off with the Phillies
01:35the bullpen the rotation I know it's early I know I just said we have 162 games but I feel
01:41like this is a
01:42season-long struggle that we have started um right here with this Phillies team if you had to put some
01:50of that money and you being a betting man do you think Rob Thompson survives the year
01:59oh you got it uh the whole year oh man I mean if what are my odds if I'm getting
02:04good plus money
02:05on the no then uh yeah I'll take as long as as long as I'm getting good odds you know
02:10give me give me
02:11good plus money like a 250 or or a 300 I'll take the no other than that yeah I wouldn't
02:16take it because
02:17like I said 162 games uh all you got to do is you know start winning series that's where it
02:22starts in
02:22baseball you don't you can't get the 10 and a half back right away you go win two out of
02:26three
02:26and then you do it again and again and again and again right you got to start winning series
02:31series and the Phillies could do that at any time with this lineup
02:34you
