00:00Says, trade him ASAP.
00:03Don't wait around.
00:04You'll get more.
00:05Believe he's also pointed out, if you're willing to eat the salary, you'll also get the most return possible.
00:11And they've already, you know, it's budgeted for.
00:15So they absolutely should just eat the salary for the year and get the best possible return they can from
00:19Scoobl.
00:19Do you agree that they should be shopping him as soon as he's back on a mound pitching?
00:23100%.
00:24And it's common sense that if you get him for longer, you're going to give up more.
00:31And yes, you eat the remainder of the salary because instead of trying to pair three teams against each other,
00:40it's can we include eight teams?
00:42How many more teams can you get in the Scoobl sweepstakes and jack the price up?
00:50And part of what you're paying for, it's already that sunk cost.
00:53Hey, we've committed to this, but you're paying for the future of whether it's MLB ready bats or the top
01:04three prospects along with an MLB ready bat.
01:09Like you can get those type of returns if you're able to sell him in early June.
01:17And nothing about this team over the last 20 games makes you believe or should give you the belief that
01:25they're going to jump back into this race.
01:27The job of a general manager changes depending on the direction, the trajectory of your team.
01:33Scott Harris's top job now is to create the best market possible for Tarek Scoobl.
01:39To do that, you would be telling teams, we'll pay the salary and you can have them as soon as
01:45you want.
01:46That's how you get the best return and create the best market to where you can say, hey, everybody in
01:52the NL Central, you're all over 500.
01:54Let's take a peek at your farm teams.
01:55Everybody knows about the Dodgers.
01:57Everybody knows about the big market teams.
01:58Let's create a true bidding war and let's work this.
02:02You know, kind of like you're building a fire and you try to really get this thing going.
02:05That's the goal of Scott Harris now, because the primary goal of winning this division, making the playoffs, chasing a
02:11World Series, that's all out the window.
02:12And some people will say it's it's look, it's the injuries.
02:16Injuries are part of it, right?
02:17They don't have Torres.
02:18They don't have carp, although not like those guys were crushing it when they were here.
02:22The problem is the guys that they still have from the opening day roster haven't delivered.
02:26Cole Keith, Spencer Torkelson, the back end of the bullpen.
02:31I mean, it's and it's not like this has been a murderer's row.
02:34They played a lot of bad teams.
02:35They've lost seven of their last eight series.
02:37This could be eight of their last nine series, and it's largely against teams in last place.
02:42There's just no excuse.
02:43It's a lost season.
02:44Get something and the most you can get for Tarek Skubel.
02:46And the fact that you are looking up at the Minnesota Twins, you're looking up at the White Sox.
02:55It's just you're 13 games below 500 right now.
03:03All right.
03:04So you've got a trip coming up.
03:06We'll get to it at 835.
03:07John's fishing trip and a specific question about when people leave for trips.
03:11But first, Heather with the news.
03:13We'll get to it at 835.
03:13We'll get to it at 935.
03:13We'll get to it at 935.
03:13You
