00:09uh yes a gorgeous tuesday filled with more gobbledygook brought to you by detroit gms
00:17we have so much stuff to get to all your college football we'll get to that around three
00:22we got scott harris at the podium that's always going to be redeeming we got a little bit more
00:28on the wings apparently they don't know what the hell they're doing according to reports shocker
00:33uh duran gate continues but i want to start with scott harris may i please we have audio
00:41and uh i'll play it for you and i i think listening to scott harris's audio only makes me
00:51yearn for no baseball next year just so i can get a break from him in this team
00:57almost like when you do prep for a colonoscopy and you need to just cleanse i i need a year
01:03of
01:04none of scott harris or tiger baseball because after a year you clown card around
01:11i still have to listen about how smart he is it just drives me crazy so before i go too
01:18far down
01:19the train tracks let me play you the audio now david i don't know what you have them labeled
01:23i'd love you to be the master of ceremonies here intro them one by one because i have something to
01:28say about all three of these let's start with his comments on not building through free agency
02:02yeah you're terrible at it second of all that was not the question
02:07you were asked no one has said you need to build through free agency everyone knows everyone
02:13with a brain knows building a baseball team through free agency is a fool's errand this is called a
02:18straw man argument this is about why do you refuse to supplement the lineup with legitimate right-handed
02:24hitting even one acquisition one so again i'm sorry don't gaslight people and don't do the
02:34straw man thing nobody is trying to quote build through free agency and lord knows if we tried
02:40you wouldn't be able to you're bad at it because if you get a bad one see look at all
02:45the bad examples
02:46not the good ones scott well look at those look at the bad ones okay well then great they're all
02:51on
02:51your front lawn is kentamaita's headstone on the front lawn next to the fountain david clip number two
02:58please a clip number two is talking about how there are more guys left to come up in the system
03:25yeah yeah this is the rico beard right here rico nailed this one hey don't worry about right now
03:31just think about how much cooler it's going to be down the line oh we got more players and then
03:37after that there's another wave of guys and then after that there's another wave don't worry it's
03:43all going to work out well here's the problem this is the same guy who admitted they didn't have the
03:48depth they needed to start the year because the current wave wasn't ready that's your job
03:54so ikey you're already seeing what's happening oh we're going to bring up brisano hey zaire hope's
04:01going to be ready labor day like what what you saw river right right it's gonna take some time
04:07this is all about you never have to start the clock if you just sell hope bingo you know what
04:13you earned it buddy thank you pal uh clip number three this is the coup de gras or as rieger
04:20once said
04:20back in the day the coup d'etat this i was gonna say the coupe de gracie yeah yeah exactly
04:27the the
04:27peanut grigiot but this this is the piece of audio that really gets me going it's provocative
04:34take a listen to this about their offense and run scoring
04:40you
04:40you
04:47you
04:52you
05:00you
05:12so let me get this straight first of all i'd like to offer you an editorial there's like
05:19seven teams that were tied for being sixth so it's kind of a little bit of false advertising
05:26second of all there's no column in the standings that says wrc plus champion
05:33while you might have been second or sixth or hey just take away the month that ended our season
05:39you don't get to do that uh you were middle of the pack i believe 14th or 15th in
05:45real run scored okay not dell or nvidia runs okay not a macbook run real runs human being crossing
05:55plate you were middle of the road so what you're what you're out here pimping is you're the best team
06:01at scoring runs who doesn't score runs and that doesn't improve by adding a veteran right-handed
06:08bat to stabilize all the youth that that's your message he cannot help he's he's like a notre
06:15dame grad and i say that because if you've ever encountered a notre dame grad you'll know in the
06:19first two sentences why they'll tell you they went to notre dame this guy cannot help but tell
06:25you how smart he is all after a disaster class season but look at our wrc play go look at
06:34your
06:34wc fields i mean what are what are we doing the only person that made sense to was calvin shepherd
06:39because he was like i get it i understand if you take away the month of may you guys were
06:45good
06:45just like taking away big plays for us i really am hoping for no baseball next i i don't i
06:50don't
06:50want to deal with another year of this i need a break i need a sabbatical from scott harris in
06:53this team i need a year you don't get to say i need a year take away the month of
06:58may and we're good
06:59because we scored a lot of runs the reason why you scored a lot of runs is because you would
07:04score
07:0415 runs in a game and win 15 to one yet last year's team outscored this year's team oh by
07:11the way
07:11you had more games with two runs or less this year than last year please spare me a trend line
07:18and wc plus wrc and vorp trends and how many games did you guys lose after the seventh inning dude
07:24i
07:25just i'm so tired of it like why can't you just own the damn thing i should have signed a
07:31bat it
07:31should be like bart simpson at the chalkboard i should i should have signed a bat i should have
07:36signed a bat just say it it's not a big deal but his guy can't help himself it's self-indulgent
07:43defined it is the one thing that every gm in the sound hates mike we've talked about it that ticking
07:49of the clock that started which means your job is now on the line your job is now accountable
07:58because people and the fans and the team will hold you to this new timeline but if you keep kicking
08:06the can and baseball is the ultimate kick the can sport because you could sit there and sell
08:11my goodness our minor league system we got a lot of hitters there we got some young arms i'm telling
08:19you and and because of what happened for people like mcgonigle coming up you can say you know you'd
08:25like mcgonigle right we got more of them they're just not ready yet but give them time yep they will
08:30be keep selling hope it's no different than the old college football coach who has the best recruiting
08:35season of his life when his job's on the line you're selling that recruiting class yeah you
08:41don't want to fire the guy and lose the class so you keep the guy to keep the hope yeah
08:46i just would
08:47love to know where tiger fan is because look i can give scott harris credit for some of the things
08:55he
08:55has done right but this continues the the rigid nature of this and the above it all attitude and then
09:02i'm sorry you need you need to stop wrc plus no we care about actual runs you were not good
09:10at it
09:10you do not get to morph numbers by taking months away stop it the how about the fact this guy
09:17is
09:17still selling hope and the future you made the playoffs two years in a row you just went out and
09:24lit the owner's money on fire and you did it all with pitching you didn't want to add any hitting
09:30i this is why i'm telling you rico i won't be sad at all give me a year off give
09:35me a year off from
09:35baseball and him come back in 28 we'll try it again they made the playoffs mike and you would
09:40think that they would be happy i really think that privately he closed the door and was like damn it
09:45we made the playoffs now they're gonna expect us to do this again we did it again oh my goodness
09:51i
09:52didn't want the clock to start i thought i had more time young guys know what we're not gonna make
09:57any moves we're only gonna play the young guys that'll do it oh look he'll get away with it in
10:01this division because this division is garbage um but it's it's just not a pathway to winning a world
10:06series you have to use every lever at your disposal this guy does not want to make impactful mlb level
10:13trades this guy does not want to go out and truly participate in free agency the right way especially
10:20with hitters this he's allergic to it and then when it all comes crashing down and they have a bad
10:25year
10:26he wants to sell you silicon valley gobbledygook wrc plus do me a favor go to sleep chanting wrc plus
10:34to yourself and see if it makes yourself feel better well if you take this month out and you
10:39leave out the facts that there were like seven teams with the same wrc plus as you then we'd end
10:45up here one problem and he admits it we got to translate to actually scoring runs you mean the
10:51one thing anyone cares about that's like leading the league and exit velo but it doesn't translate
10:57to home runs then what's the point that's like i mean it just i'm so tired of this it's meaningless
11:05it sounds good because it makes you sound smart so a lot of people are like well maybe the tigers
11:11weren't that bad and did you and they'll recite all of the stuff that he said but it's meaningless
11:15it's empty calories it's in a normal year icing normal year in the american league this team
11:20wouldn't have cracked 70 wins this would have been a 95 lost team in a normal american league this was
11:26the worst american league in modern history congratulations you finished 10 games under
11:31ain't nobody trying to hear it but i i look i want to hear from the people 248-539-9797
11:37when you hear
11:38the audio of scott harris what is your takeaway do you accept his explaining it all away
11:44do you accept selling the hope selling the future essentially telling you they're not i mean he could
11:51say they participate in free ages they do not not when it comes to hitting and whatever this guy
11:57spends pitching wise he's been a disaster you happy with the framberg deal i don't think so happy hey
12:04best thing verlander did was walk out of here because he didn't do anything from the time he signed him
12:08what are you talking about man saturday was magical cool i was watching texas and tennessee
12:14two four eight tear up and cry no i have actual things you have no soul no i have a
12:19life
12:21i have things in my life you have no soul from what i've been told no please that's that's just
12:28insecure people they need to be validated by grown men what a what a pathetic joke
12:34well if you didn't like it you're mean yeah cool and you own a cat 248-539-9797 david we'll
