It might be a baseball Friday, but it's Friday. What up, Al Dukes?

Oh, hi, there, Jerry.

What up, what up?

As soon as I saw the, a couple days ago where I saw the Dodgers involved. Yeah, I was like, well, he's going to the Dodgers. Yeah, I actually never thought he was. I really. I mean, even yesterday when we were here,

meaning Kyle Tucker, by the way, if you're just waking up,

he's with the Dodgers in Los Angeles.

Even yesterday, when I left here,

everything was... I mean, even yesterday when we were here, meaning Kyle Tucker, by the way, if you're just waking up, he's with the Dodgers in Los Angeles. Even yesterday, when I left here, everything I was reading, it really seemed like it was coming down to the Mets or the Blue Jays. And then you wake up and the Dodgers blew him away with this crazy offer. And by the way, the Mets offer is pretty crazy too. Yeah.

And so he's now off the table. So I'm still waiting for this big Mets plan. Well, what's funny is that there's, you can't create a player. This isn't like one of those video games or you can add a guy, give him 99% power, 99% fielding percentage. You can't add a guy that doesn't exist. So who is left that's out there that is available?

That is, because I got to say, as a Met fan myself and knowing and seeing Met fans,

no one would have traded Pete Alonzo for Kyle Tucker, straight up.

There was a, do you guys want to swap out?

I don't know.

No, there, some would have.

Some would have.

Because Kyle Tucker, listen, I've been on this Alonzo thing since it started.

So I'm with you with the way the fans like him, all-time franchise leader in home runs. That's the type of guy you drafted him. That's the type of guy you keep and you make him a lifelong mitt. So I'm with you on that. That having been said, the Kyle Tucker, he's a really good player. I mean, he's an outstanding player. Let's not minimize what he is, just because we don't watch him every day. He's a great player.

My issue with Tucker is he hasn't played every day the last couple of years and he's

been injured.
