00:00are 9 and 20 at home i guess odd when you hear it but then if you think about it
00:06maybe
00:07unfortunately it makes sense when you look at the non-baseball people the analytics people
00:14who i think some of these guys believe are interfering when it comes to just playing
00:22playing the game of baseball so i he says we're at fenway we struggle because we see a lot of
00:30people
00:31that we don't know it's so weird i don't know they're like who's this guy walking into the
00:38clubhouse yeah i mean why is he bothering me it's it's it's very strange is it john henry i mean
00:46i mean i gotta believe it's just the it's the nerd part of the whole thing that's what i would
00:53think
00:53i will ask craig breslow about this obviously tomorrow when he's on at nine but um because
01:00it's not the family thing because no they know the families or the families aren't who's that my family
01:06right and it's not like media people hanging around the only thing and i think greg you you brought it
01:14up and as you start to think about it it's like some of these people that might work in baseball
01:18operations that you know it's it they feel like when they're back home it's oh i'm a you know
01:26dishwasher now it's my time to kind of go into the kitchen and say hey you know what i was
01:30seeing the
01:31other day you know that's saying like there's like too many cooks in the kitchen and at home and when
01:36they're probably playing at home you got all these baseball operation people maybe coming down to the
01:40clubhouse saying hey i saw this stat or i saw that stat or maybe you should look at
01:44these numbers depressed socks fan in the twitch chat said it's probably bradfo
01:50we can't rip bradfo for at least a month this is true yeah he did such a great job with
01:56roman
01:56oh man any follow-up on that no that's wild interesting you're blocked what do you think
02:04brez bot will say i don't know yeah ask him about that ask him about good morning
02:11jones and keith do a do a when they say that we're talking for breslau they go boop boop beep
02:16pop that's not compute right he can't he has a hard time talking to other human beings which is an
02:24issue
02:24in most workplaces i think i don't know if you need an interpreter to speak the same language you're
02:29probably in the wrong place yeah but then there is a suggestion that chad tracy somehow will be a
02:36great interpreter and he can take the uh the computer speak the tech speak the analytics speak
02:45and synthesize it and then and then translate that like the bobs did in office space like he can then
02:52translate it to the actual guys who are swinging the bat so i don't know maybe i really isn't the
02:59problem roster construction like we've gone around and around and around this
03:04yeah yeah but the roster is what it is now it's too late yes so that's why it's time to
03:09sell like
03:10i'm sorry it's a lost season it's a loss it's a completely lost season but they use this model now
03:15which is the direct to consumer the streaming package month to month they must be getting
03:21absolutely demolished with subscription losses oh you think people are unsubscribing from the
03:25nesson 360 i mean would you be spending whatever i don't even know what it is a month but it's
03:31like
03:3130 bucks or something yeah it's not cheap so would you triple what you pay for netflix to watch the
03:35red sox every month i would love for someone to find those numbers do they have to disclose them
03:39publicly only if they go on strike i would guess not that is but i mean i'm i mean we
03:45find out you
03:45know somehow chad finn gets the positive ness of numbers but they don't give that but we know
03:49based on i can't remember whose lead it was it might have been yours mego or there was a uh
03:57or maybe
03:57it was your husband who wrote this that the um the fans that is up this year at fenway park
04:06i don't know what you're talking about wasn't that you that wasn't me it wasn't that wasn't you no
04:11you're saying that attendance is up yeah i thought that the attendance was up this year at fenway park
04:16i was surprised that there i remember hearing a report that it was pretty good through the spring
04:20which surprised me not just because of the team but because the weather has been awful
04:24it's like the team sucks so then you're gonna sit there and it's 42 degrees like no thank you
04:31857 text that says breslow reminds me of the ceo at mcdonald's who was trying to act like he
04:38oh he didn't know how to eat a hamburger like he enjoyed the big mac or whatever the new burger
04:43was
04:44what a cell phone that was unbelievable i forgot about that he was taking those weird little bites
04:51using a fork and knife he's like this is so good a little greasy but delectable
04:58do you it does feel though like curtis you made this point on monday i think
05:05the sentiment around the building is turning on breslow like there's a lot now that's with this is
05:12ikf kind of saying i think there's these weird guys around i think that comment is directed at
05:18craig breslow and others right it's so vague but how else can you connect the dots there's no other
05:24way to look at it it's like when we get back here at fenway there's a bunch of nerds who
05:30are telling
05:31us what to swing at when to swing what what what pitch they think is coming it's in our heads
05:37and it's that way it has to be that way we talked about it a billion times right but it
05:42has to be
05:42that way in all sports with the analytics yeah brez bot said that you can't predict everything yeah
05:48he said sometimes we put too much too much of the numbers in in their head or too much of
05:52the
05:52analytics and it and it messes with them which i i understand i completely where players are thinking
05:57about my swing where's my elbow is it down oh my god i gotta worry about this rather than just
06:01going
06:01out there and being reacting naturally and just playing from your gut and having using the analytics
06:06as a way to just kind of help you and prepare you but not letting it overload you i think
06:12what's
06:12frustrating is then from the other side i feel like there is this messaging that they push back on when
06:18they're like well what do you really know about driveline what do you really think about driveline
06:22you guys say driveline but then you have people within the organization either talking to tim
06:28healy and saying he needs a translator because people don't even know what the driveline stuff
06:32means what he should do is pull up the interview on barstool with belichick that remember that i was
06:39at uh ptf today is it ppt pft excuse me pmt part of my take sorry about that you're good
06:45but they had
06:46an interview with bill and he talked about how brady saw the game as a player versus how he saw
06:53the game
06:53who had never played and just being able to say okay when do we go on some of your gut
06:59instincts
06:59versus like some of the things that you know i experienced from coaching and and i just i always
07:06it's always fascinating to me that a guy like breslow who played you would think that players would go
07:12all right i'm gonna lean on my instincts more than i am the analytics because i've played the game but
07:20they won't let them that's the problem and but that's what's crazy to me breslow's from that world
07:25what made him flip the script script of going all right don't lean more on analytics than your
07:32instincts as a former player curtis is this accurate the several textures pointing out for you that
07:37nesson has now gone down there's a five dollar deal oh really five bucks a month is it like the
07:42globe 99
07:4299 cents probably i'll look into it
