00:00I wonder, you know, we've talked about how set up Milwaukee is with so much young talent and what they've
00:07got going on that they will absolutely compete for another world championship, no matter what the new CBA is, I
00:14think, next year.
00:16I don't know. Is that the same for Tampa? Because that has not been I mean, they have new ownership
00:22there.
00:22They are building a stadium. Do they is this ownership group? Do you have any feeling that maybe they're locking
00:30up as arena?
00:31They're not letting him go like what? Because usually at this point is when we're talking about, all right, well,
00:37who are the best pitchers and where are they going?
00:39Because they're not staying in Tampa Bay. So I don't know the raise that organization seal in your thing.
00:44No, the raise are in good shape. I look at it. I don't know that they'll be as good as
00:49next year as they as they were this year.
00:51But you got to remember something. The raise are a factory of drafting and developing.
00:58And you could say that the very best pitcher on their entire roster didn't throw a pitch in the postseason.
01:03That's Shane McClanahan. So McClanahan gets healthy. All of a sudden, he's at the top of that rotation, maybe even
01:10better than Rasmussen, Joe.
01:11I'm serious. Like McClanahan is that good. And so you lose Martinez, you get McClanahan back, you fix some of
01:17the back end of the bullpen, which the raise have had no issues doing.
01:20It's actually the first time I can remember the raise back into the bullpen, not pitching well outside of Baker.
01:25But Camonero is back there. Jonathan Aranda is back there. Chandler Simpson is back.
01:30A lot of the players that they have are back. But but they were very, very good at home this
01:35season.
01:36And you would probably say if they ended up winning 90 some odd games, they probably still win in the
01:4180s, maybe close to 90.
01:43But I think they're an absolute factor for the postseason factor for the World Series.
01:48That's that's really hard to do. But, Joe, I don't see anyone outside of the name that you mentioned, Martinez,
01:53being integral as far as a loss for them.
01:55No, I don't see that.
