00:00That's right. The drive is live, live in the building. You heard Clint Sterner in there.
00:04You see Tyler Milner. He is freshly shaved, folks. He showed me today in the parking lot.
00:11Oh, you got Velcro?
00:12That had to be a good 45-minute job.
00:20That right there.
00:21That's soft as a baby's back.
00:22That had to be, and he was as hairy as a kid's, man.
00:28No, that had to be at least two apparatuses.
00:30You did not just attack it with one.
00:32I used clippers every time. I sure as hell ain't using there.
00:36I know, but you had to clipper that down first and then use a raise.
00:42Just all clippers, man. Straight one pass. Well, maybe not one pass. Technically.
00:47Yeah, you had to go back and clean that thing up. You had to get a few stragglers.
00:50That must have been the Donald Sterling clippers you were using.
00:53That floor looked like Trophy Barbershop in Midtown, Texas.
00:57Oh, you got to do it in the shower, man. Let it all run to the drain and you pick
00:59it up at once.
01:00Wait, did you just say Donald Sterling?
01:02Yeah, you used the Donald Sterling. If that was all clippers, that's that.
01:05I don't like that.
01:06You had more of an aggressive. Not a racist, but more an aggressive.
01:09Yeah, but I'm a white guy and there's a comparison involving Donald Sterling, so let's just not do that.
01:15I mean, that takes a lot of white guys off the board.
01:21Older white guys off the board.
01:22Fair.
01:23And younger.
01:24But anyway, but no, man, he came in freshly shaved.
01:28It's good. I like what you started off with early with him.
01:33Hey, man.
01:36Emai.
01:40I get carried away here.
01:42I'm not getting carried away.
01:44I said, what did I say before we left?
01:46Do you?
01:47Yeah, yeah.
01:48I said, how do you feel?
01:50Do you think he's going to make you feel better about him once that game ends?
01:54And both of you gave distressed looks on your faces before you tried to answer.
02:00Many of you texted.
02:02Once somebody flat said, no, there's no hope for him.
02:06That's what that person texted in.
02:08No, he's going to make me feel worse.
02:10There's no hope for him.
02:12Hey, if he could have avoided that big fella, old 56, who looks like he could play de-tackle for
02:19the Vikings.
02:20I don't know, man.
02:20Something.
02:21Maybe he'd come here.
02:23Oh, Josh Bell, if he could avoid his ass, he'd have had a night.
02:27Hey, four and two-thirds, that was stopped by the rain.
02:30I honest to God, again, if he could have avoided Josh, I think he had a quality start in him.
02:35No question.
02:35Like, he had a quality start guy.
02:37No walks.
02:38That's huge.
02:39No walks.
02:39In all seriousness, that's bigger than I can even say that he was able to find the strike zone.
02:44I honest to God, I didn't think he was capable of doing that.
02:47Nobody did.
02:49Minnesota swinging at balls had a lot to do with that.
02:51But that's all right, though.
02:52No, I like it.
02:53He had that slider working.
02:55Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:55He had that slider working.
02:56He was rolling.
02:57But, I mean, no walks.
02:59Listen, I don't care who he did it up against.
03:01I don't care if it was the Houston Cougars women's softball team.
03:04No walks.
03:05I didn't think he was capable of doing that.
03:07Houston Buffalo.
03:08How are they catching strays, man?
03:09It's not a stray.
03:10I'm just saying.
03:11I just thought of a team that swings bats.
03:15No, but, hey, man, that was, no, for real, that was big of him.
03:21You wanted to see progress, and he was pitching pretty well.
03:26He looked like a major league starter out there, Clinton.
03:29I mean, that's all you can ask.
03:30When the team's highest paid pitcher is in the mind state that he was in,
03:37I'm going to take every little bit I can.
03:40Man, that rain, thank you, Jesus.
03:42That rain came at the perfect time.
03:44You don't think you didn't feel good about him extending it?
03:46I didn't want to say, nope, nope.
03:47Four and two.
03:48Was it four and two-thirds or five and two-thirds?
03:50Yeah, man, he was in.
03:50Four and two-thirds, two outs.
03:52He was ready to get a fight of there.
03:52Four and two-thirds was following me.
03:55You sure it wasn't five and two-thirds?
03:56Once they get into the fifth inning, I guess they were batting, weren't they?
03:59Because he was on the bump when it happened.
04:00He needed to get one more out.
04:02That's right.
04:03Yeah, man, that was plenty for me.
04:05I'm with you.
04:06I mean, look, I'd love to see seven, eight innings of three-run ball.
04:10But at the end of the day, at that point in time,
04:13it was kind of like me in the first half of that Giants game.
04:16If they'd have benched me at halftime, I'd still be playing.
04:19Let me come out there and screw it up in the second half
04:21and never touch the field again.
04:23He had played a really solid first half.
04:26You think I'd still be playing?
04:28Hold on, real quick.
04:30How many years do you think that costs?
04:32If you would have sat down in the second half.
04:35Oh, Lord, this is dangerous.
04:36If you just sat down in the second half,
04:38or you just got real Davis Mills conservative,
04:42how many years do you think that could have bought you?
04:44Dallas Cowboys versus the Giants in New York.
04:46We had an amazing first half.
04:48Hold on, what was the first half?
04:4911 of 12 for like $1.20 and a touchdown.
04:51And we were up like 24-3 or 24-6 or something like that.
04:54And then the second half, what happened?
04:56I came out, drove them right down the field,
04:58and got down from the five-yard line,
04:59and I threw another touchdown that was going to make it 31.
05:02Howard Cross.
05:02Got called back.
05:03It got called back on offensive pass interference,
05:06which was really defensive.
05:07We had it schemed up, perfect play.
05:08We knew they were going to grab my Jackie Harris.
05:11Jackie Harris, that's who it was.
05:12My tight end, when he cross-faced the linebacker down in the goal line,
05:14they tackle your tight end because you're in the goal line so tight
05:16it never gets called.
05:17Well, he tackled my tight end.
05:19Well, I threw the touchdown to Rocket behind him on a little angle route,
05:22and they saw the tight end get tackled out of the corner of the eye,
05:25and they thought the tight end picked him instead of the linebacker
05:27tackled the tight end.
05:28So they threw a flag, called it back.
05:30I threw a – for some reason we had in our game plan a jump ball to Rocket
05:33Ishmael with Jason Sehorne covered him, who had about four inches on him.
05:36But I threw it up, and Sehorne picked it.
05:39And that was the first of four in the second half.
05:42Four in the second half.
05:43So if you had not thrown or just sat down after –
05:47how many years do you think that would have bought you?
05:49Five?
05:49More.
05:51You think that first-half performance, that would have bought you about five,
05:54five, six, more years?
05:55No question.
05:56The only thing they saw of me was my first start,
05:58which was left a lot to be desired, but I ran a touchdown,
06:02and then I come out and light it up in the first half,
06:05and then hang on to just don't turn it up.
06:07Don't mess it up in the second half.
06:08Yeah, at least five.
06:10You'd be sitting here working with a nine-year vet, Chief.
06:13You'd be sitting here.
06:13Nice job by Clutch Carter.
06:16Woo-wee.
06:17Listen.
06:17A lot more paper in the back, too, now.
06:19Listen.
06:20I don't know.
06:21Well, I was watching it, Tyler.
06:22It felt like he was in a groove, again, if he could just avoid Josh Bell.
06:28Something Josh Bell was seeing something.
06:30All right, and he hung up that change-up.
06:32The change-up ain't supposed to be sitting that high.
06:37Which brings up another point, Ron.
06:38I'm not real, because he only threw four change-ups last night
06:41outside the other two.
06:41You don't disagree with him.
06:42But one of them got hit out of the park.
06:43I don't know if that bodes well for the Astros.
06:46Yeah, that letter high 90 change-up, that ain't it.
06:50The Astros are telling him, hey, man, you've got to throw more than two pitches.
06:53You've got to throw more than two pitches.
06:55He throws a change-up, and Bell parks it in the trees out there.
06:58Now, I think what you're saying is fair.
07:01Because I did watch him, and I felt like he was in a good spot.
07:04Oh, I agree.
07:04Like he was rolling.
07:06What was he, 70-something pitches at that point in time?
07:08But, Tyler and Clint, we've watched, it can fall apart in an instant.
07:14Very, very quickly.
07:15Like, he can lose the muffler.
07:19He could lose the radiator.
07:21I mean, it could just fall out the bottom of the car.
07:23All of it.
07:23You might as well start with the tire.
07:25We've seen him lose tires, not just mufflers.
07:27No, I mean, the Mariners game, he was not rolling that bad.
07:31He had given up the two-run homer.
07:33By the way, he has got to figure out that.
07:35He seems to give up home runs every time he pitches.
07:39But he was going all right.
07:41He hit a guy, and then he hit another guy, and then he four-pitched walk.
07:45And that turned into the complete car falling apart.
07:48Grand salami.
07:49Right there, that fast.
07:50So, like, I felt like he could have, I felt like he was destined to go six.
07:54Or at least go all the way up until Josh Bell came up again.
07:57Well, let's find out that he's going to.
07:58And then he's going to.
07:59But you're right.
08:00It could have turned into a, it could have Pete Lambert real quick.
08:04No doubt.
08:04No doubt.
08:05The way it did.
08:05So, yeah.
08:06No, I think there is something to, even though you know it could have been more, and I think
08:11he knows it could have been more.
08:13He saw, he probably got some confidence with his stuff.
08:15Like, confidence in, hey, these jokers wasn't swinging at these ball, these sliders that
08:20I'm intending to throw out of the strike zone.
08:22And now I've got major league hitters to do it.
08:26And that may be more important to walk off the mound feeling like that as opposed to
08:31going down.
08:31Look here.
08:32He, his interpreter, I'm not real sure what he said, but his interpreter talking about
08:36he wanted to go more.
08:37Joe Espada talking about he could have gone more, would have gone more.
08:40Hey, man, y'all can shove that where the sun don't shine.
08:44That rain came at a perfect time.
08:46Get that man that confidence.
08:47Give him five days off.
08:48Let him, let him, let that stew.
08:50Let him, let him have a little bit of positivity here.
08:53Not to feel like he's got to explain the difference between Japanese baseball and
08:56major league baseball in America.
08:58And let's see if he can do it again next, next outing.
09:01That's exactly what we needed.
09:02Thank you, Jesus.
09:03Yeah.
09:03Text line coming out.
09:04I ain't gonna lie to you.
09:05The fact that he balked and didn't lose his ass was good.
09:08I did.
09:09I don't know what happened there.
09:10That's the mound stuff he was talking about in America right there.
09:14I bet he almost, I bet he said it again.
09:16See these stupid mounds.
09:18These stupid Americans.
09:20These stupid mounds.
09:21And I'll tell you, I thought, I thought,
09:23Oh boy.
09:24Cause it does.
09:24It feels like anything can trigger it.
09:26I thought, Oh boy.
09:27Here we go.
09:28Is it because we're on the metric system?
09:29I don't know what it is.
09:30Well, no, there's another thing.
09:31I read Chandler Rome.
09:33I read Chandler Rome.
09:33Chandler Rome said he adjusted his mechanics, but you know, a certain, he was falling off
09:37or leaning or something on these mounds and it was, it was causing some problems.
09:40Apparently he, he corrected it.
09:42It was a posture, kind of a lean situation.
09:45He corrected it and felt a lot better yesterday.
09:47I was about to say, it sounds like he's just got balance issues.
09:50Like he's bow legged or something.
09:51It looks like that dirt or that rubber reached up and grabbed his ass.
09:55He spun out.
09:58He spun out.
09:59A text line.
09:59He gave up three runs and four and two thirds.
10:01Not even a quality start.
10:03Pump the brakes.
10:04No, no.
10:04I know.
10:04There's no bump breaks to be pumped.
10:06This is a guy who could not, not just get out double a hitters.
10:10He could not throw strikes to them.
10:12That's where we're at for end.
10:14It's a step in the right direction.
10:15And, and yes, like he, like he did what you will see normal pitchers do.
10:21We can, we saw Pete Lambert do this.
10:23We've seen other guys, like he came out there and he pitched the ball pretty well.
10:27He just made two mistakes.
10:30At least one mistake that a guy who sees him clearly really well, he made mistakes to two guys,
10:38to one guy on two pitches.
10:40And it was three runs and he was, he was headed that way.
10:44Five strikeouts to no walks to major league batter.
10:47You can kiss all of my ass.
10:49I'm not pumping a single break.
10:51This guy walked five people in Sugar Land last time.
10:54He kicked off the game against the Mariners before he won.
10:58He walked first, the first five of the seven batters.
11:01Yeah.
11:01That season like this, you're going to take your wins like that.
11:04Well, we, but we need this dude, man.
11:06That was good.
11:06That was good.
11:06No, it was good.
11:07It was solid.
11:08And it was stopped, not because he had thrown too many pitches.
11:12The rain stopped.
11:12Yeah.
11:13Look, the reality of it is, if we have any chance this year, I mean, I love Hunter Brown.
11:18I love what we're seeing out of Spencer Ergetti.
11:20I love the hater and, you know, coming back.
11:23We don't have a puncher's chance if MI is not a factor in our pitching rotation.
11:28I mean, unless this Pete thing's real, we need the highest paid pitcher on our staff,
11:33starter on our staff, to be nails.
11:37We need him to be good.
11:38We need to be at least a fourth starter that we can depend on.
11:41Well, and the big reason is that the Astros need it is because they seem to be hell-bent
11:48on running him out there regardless of if he's showing signs of being ready to pitch or not.
11:53There is nothing.
11:54A little tough love.
11:55This is Joe's tough love.
11:57This is beyond tough love.
11:58I told you, it felt like they threw a towel in.
12:00Like, there's no way you run him out there the way they did.
12:03Right, right.
12:04There's nothing that he did that said nothing.
12:05Well, they're showing you right now, Ron, why they did it.
12:07You see how they just got to fight through it.
12:09Don't forget to bring it to us.
