00:00A quick look at tonight's game here in Aram. I was on earlier with our guest, Kyle Sapi. I saw
00:06the total in tonight's Cubs Brewers game at 10 and a half. That just tells me the wind is blowing.
00:11And for me, that means I stay away completely from a game like this. I don't care how good Imanaga
00:16is. You can't. I mean, this is that game where the hitting coaches go and say you put the ball
00:21up in the air. It's a home run. So you know what's going to happen here.
00:24And this is maybe the one guy in the Brewers rotation that has been struggling a little bit in Brandon
00:29Sprout. Not going to be the ideal scenario, I think, to have to go out there and throw. Imanaga has
00:35been so good, but he's a fly ball guy that has been burned by the long ball in the past.
00:39That is one that I would probably be nervous about in general. I agree with you.
00:44But with the way that Imanaga is throwing, if somebody wanted to just back him and trust that he can
00:48make it work with the way the wind's blowing, I don't blame him. But all of a sudden, once Sprout
00:52gets out of the game, if there's any bullpen that can, you know, with the heavy sinkers and just whiff
00:57that they can get, the Brewers are in a spot where they can maybe make that wind matter a little
01:00bit less.
01:01All right, Aram, tell me about Cole Demerson here. I mean, there's a lot of pressure on a kid like
01:06this to save the day in Seattle. I know that they're struggling in a lot of ways offensively, kind of
01:11unfair. Raleigh on the IL. I know this kid was a great player and a highly touted prospect, but man,
01:16there's some pressure having to come up right away and be the guy that's potentially going to help save him.
01:22Especially with the extension already, but I will say he's a really good balance of hit and power that's really
01:27developed. The defense has gotten a lot better.
01:29It's a well-rounded game that should translate to at least be a solid contributor out of the early in
01:34the gate here.
