00:13this morning oh really why you can't be jp and leave you know no no room i still got here
00:1915
00:20minutes before the show yeah you got a budget in that extra time i mean 95 of the time there

00:26no issues driving in sometimes there's big accidents there's road closures there's traffic snarls
00:33yes i didn't have any i didn't have any backup on 395 i wonder maybe they cleared up i don't
00:40know i
00:40don't know where that was when i left here uh i don't even know where did i go i went
00:45to pt
00:46but on uh 495 right shortly after the gw bridge uh you know heading into maryland there must have
00:55been 15 uh fire department trucks fire trucks uh i don't know what i mean obviously there's some
01:02sort of accident and they just kept coming and they just kept coming and they just kept coming
01:06um and it was you know caused a little backup maybe 15 minutes or so we were always moving but
01:12um
01:12and right when you get up and you want a rubberneck and you want to see what was doing
01:16couldn't see too many too many fire trucks they're covering the cars that were involved
01:20um they were obviously dealing with people in the cars but it looked like a multi-car
01:25and that was going into maryland you said yeah going into maryland yesterday afternoon because
01:29i don't know traffic around here is is crazy i'm not breaking any uh secrets right but um usually
01:37when you head back into maryland around 10 o'clock it's usually not bad at times i fantasize about
01:44living someplace where there just aren't a lot of people like i'll have something when i've had my
01:49fill of traffic i'll just i'll turn to my wife or daughter and say we need need to move to
01:54wyoming
01:55or we need to move to montana like we're my fill in the name of a a spot with just
02:00just aren't many
02:01people you should move to rising sun ohio that's where my mother grew up i think uh ronda said was
02:06like 300 people live there you like if you go into town it's just uh just go on these little
02:14country roads and you just you say you're going into the town you're going into the store right
02:19right and that's what it is i mean i can look at some zillow porn for rising sun ohio and
02:24see if
02:24anything catches my eye dude i wonder i wonder how much this is pretty affordable i'm gonna guess
02:28i mean i would have no idea like a house like a farmhouse in rising sun ohio i would be
02:33shocked if
02:34it was even a hundred thousand dollars yeah all right i mean i honestly have no idea rising sun
02:39ohio it's the world's smallest town the the neighborhood where you get a little rancher
02:46that thing those things must be like 50k or something i mean you live near nothing yeah
02:50right there's nothing around so if you don't want people around mr cakes i mean first came up
02:55rising sun maryland no no you got a rising sun ohio i didn't know rising sun was such a popular
03:00name yeah you don't remember seeing that every day when you come back well every day because i
03:04come back from new york all the time or whatever when you're on 95 you always see a sign for
03:07a
03:07rising sun maryland i'd never oh i'm rarely if ever come back from new york so i'm not really that
03:12familiar i guess coming back from like atlantic city come back from atlantic city you see yeah
03:17yeah all the time when you go you go up there you go to the chesapeake house and all that
03:20true you
03:20would see it but i guess you're up here what do you what do you see what are the i
03:24don't know
03:25it's not even coming up just coming up rising sun md no type in rising sun ohio yeah i'm gonna
03:31guess
03:32am i my uncle lived in a nice good-sized farmhouse but all right what's the population of rising sun
03:40i think i think ronda says like three four hundred i mean something like that's pretty small oh really
03:43maybe it's grown i mean i'm rising sun indiana i just can't you can't find rising sun that's how
03:49small it is i can't work the interwebs this morning apparently that's my bit yeah um but speaking of
03:55what happened here last night max scherzer made his return and probably his final start ever
04:01is that what people are thinking i mean he's 40 he turned 42 years old i feel like he's a
04:06lifer i'm
04:07getting the vibe he wants to pitch forever and even if he pitches five times he just has he has
04:12a
04:12million injuries every year your body betrays you pitches five times every year what does he care he
04:17loves he's a competitor he seems to be that type i don't know what his contract is but yeah i
04:21mean
04:21i can't imagine he's on a year-to-year deal i mean the last thing the blue jays need is
04:24some guy is
04:25just going to pitch five times he's 42 the the blue jays let him take the field basically by himself
04:32so the crowd could acknowledge him right crowd gives him a standing o of course as he takes the field
04:38and you know it's max scherzer same old same old like he doesn't really want a lot of the fanfare
04:44he
04:44kind of just wants to get to the pitching he acknowledged the crowd and he didn't last very long in
04:49the
04:49game he lasted 75 pitches two and two-thirds innings i mean 75 pitches he should have lasted
04:54longer than two and two-thirds yeah yeah yeah well he walked i think he walked three or four guys
04:58he
04:58got another standing o on the way out yeah as he departed so the crowd did he acknowledge the crowd
05:03he waved the crowd on his way out into the dugout yeah um but gnats take one on the chin
05:09at home
05:10to the blue jays their bats went quiet 13ks in a home loss 13ks against toronto i think toronto
05:18used seven pitchers maybe eight after scherzer came in maybe there were seven guys that came in
05:25basically for an inning each well this is what happens we're a 500 team gonna win one lose one
05:30one over 500 win one lose one a little bit better than 500 all right one game yep but basically
05:35we're
05:35gonna win one lose one yep win one lose one i need to update my file on is it eddie
05:39yeen or yeon
05:43yeah okay he uh he was the pitcher of note for the gnats last night yeah he was the opener
05:49yeah
05:50um he he took the l two and two and a third uh give three hits two earned runs yeah
05:56he hadn't been
05:57here very long they just got him early july three starts so far for the gnats yep and then did
06:03you
06:03see yeah he was not always starting but so they they brought uh they traded for early uh they brought
06:08him in i guess he did a bullpen or something for him i guess he is on track to do
06:12his uh rehab start
06:14or whatever he was on with grant and toby yesterday oh great heard him on the air yesterday but uh
06:19red sox fans are freaking out because mead unfortunately was hitting the fourth inning on
06:22the wrist yeah he was all that um and it's kind of like mini disaster hopefully it's not anything
06:28long term hopefully you know yeah they said the x-rays were negative that's good but he might be
06:33out for a few games that's good but i saw them freaking out um can you imagine you trade one
06:40of
06:40your stud yeah young pitchers to get some help here i mean that's not like they still won right
06:45they won 18 to 20 they're still cruising they're on fire yeah uh yeah but that's you're right i mean
06:50you trade for a guy and then he gets hit on the wrist in the first game he's there right
06:54uh but
06:55luckily it's not broken just contusion so i don't know how long that's going to take
06:59right could be a few few days but cavalli goes tonight for the nats so hopefully good chance
07:06and he's been pitching well so hopefully they get they bounce back not sure who i think bieber's
07:10pitching for toronto 645 start so maybe the bats come alive tonight and um and they get back on track
07:16there's still only one back in the wild card because arizona lost again arizona's lost three straight
07:21so didn't lose any ground want them to keep losing didn't lose any ground there keep taking l's
07:26dylan cruz had a hit and you know when you're only hitting 200 whatever you go up he was up
07:32to 228
07:33yep he's up near 230 yeah yeah i mean you know that's i mean back when we grew up that
07:40was nothing
07:40that was terrible but you know with the way he started he's definitely trending in the right
07:44direction say the month of july he's he's only hitting 233 but that's a lot better than what we
07:51expected need to get him up in that 260 270 range that would be ideal then you could say i
07:56don't
07:56have to worry about him anymore but he's had a bunch of multi-hit games yeah yeah i know i
08:00know
08:00they're pleased i know they're pleased oh yeah with his development and then defensively he's very
08:04good so um i noticed but hopefully it's the night they they bounce back and cavalli pitches well and
08:09they score seven or eight so we are although bieber can be tough we're just a couple days away from
08:14the trade deadline right so 31st is the 28th um it's august 3rd august 31st no no no august 3rd
08:22august 3rd yeah um all right getting closer and closer i still feel like they're gonna make some
08:29more moves you got one more at least one more foster griffin start in that's uniform before august 3rd
08:35hits yeah i'd squeeze that one last start if they're gonna wind up dealing him so we'll have to
08:40see what happens as we get closer and closer to august 3rd today's another big day though commander's
08:46training camp with veterans reporting we have the first full practice slated for tomorrow
08:52on wednesday when we come back big news commanders related and a lot of the news isn't good we will
09:00delve into that next here on the fan
