00:00What do you think has happened to Seattle this year?
00:03You know, I made a comment yesterday, Cab, that, and you know this as well as anybody,
00:08when you're a catcher and you're behind the dish 130 games, that right hand from a pitcher does this.
00:16Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
00:19Then you start getting these lazy hits to right field.
00:23And that's kind of what you're starting to see with Cal Raleigh and starting to really take its toll on
00:28him.
00:28When you get to a point where you start doing this, hey, let's find another position for him.
00:34Let's get him out there so he's not taking the wear and tear on his knees and on his right
00:38hand
00:39for him to be able to get his back back because that's a grinding spot back there behind the plate.
00:44I've played it behind there.
00:46And when you're putting those kind of innings back there, that's a lot.
00:49Do you think the Mariners need to start visiting that and go down that lane with him with Cal Raleigh?
00:56Yes. And also, they should have already done that a long time ago.
00:59So I want to say this.
01:01As somebody that trains with a lot of baseball players, Cal has changed his swing.
01:08And now when I say this, I don't want people to think, oh, so it's so simple that some, you
01:12know,
01:12guy that gets on the Internet and talks sports can just point out what it is.
01:16Then why hasn't he fixed it?
01:17I'm not saying it's simple to fix, but it is simple to see what's happening.
01:21His back elbow has disconnected from his hip.
01:24His hands are extending a little too far out, which is causing his barrel not to stay in the zone
01:28as long.
01:29And when your barrel is not in the zone as long, you don't have as much of an opportunity to
01:32hit the baseball.
01:32What I'm getting at is this has been something that I don't understand how they have not taken him out
01:38for two weeks, three weeks, and fixed the swing, guys.
01:41It's a mechanical thing in a swing.
01:43And it drives me crazy.
01:45And it drives me crazy.
