| 0:11.4 | This may feel strong, but you people are stupid. |
| 0:13.5 | OMG. |
| 0:15.1 | It's Felgrimaz, 95, the Sports Hub. |
| 0:19.0 | I'm not saying if we win this one, we become like the greatest team ever, |
| 0:23.7 | whatever, but at this level it's very hard to repeat. And the last team to do it was the Yankees |
| 0:30.0 | in the late 90s. This organization has been in the playoffs three years in a row. We do what we, you know, we set to do. |
| 0:40.9 | People are going to be talking about this group forever. |
| 0:44.2 | And that's something cool. |
| 0:51.5 | All right, here you go. |
| 0:52.4 | Opening night, two hours away in Seattle. |
| 1:13.7 | What do you think, Maz? What are you looking for tonight if you're a Red Sox fan? Well, I keep an eye out on how the bullpen is used. To me, that's like one of the staples of the early part of the season. Sales worth watching too, obviously, given the way last year ended. So we'll see what the stuff is like, whether he's going for strikeouts, you know, ground balls, pitch efficiency, that sort of stuff. |
| 1:28.8 | But to me, the bigger question is how the bullpen is used, who is used, and when? You've got to figure, we're going to see a crap ton of guys come out of there. I would think so. You just mentioned with sale, like he's not, they're going to baby his ass all the way through. Yeah, you would think so. I mean, I can't imagine him going more than 80 pitches. |
| 1:45.0 | I was going to say six innings, but it might even be less than that. Yep, 7580, somewhere in that range. That's what I would expect to. First time out, they're using these guys in. And, you know, they've got 11 games in a row here to start the year. so he's going to make another turn in five days unless he's a six starter. |
| 1:46.3 | So whatever. |
| 1:45.0 | But they're going to make another turn in five days unless he's a six starter. |
| 1:59.2 | So whatever. But they're going to go easy with him. I'm not as worried about him here in the early part of the year. The more interesting thing to me is the bullpen. Like that's how I want to see how that sort of shakes out. How do you feel about the road trip to begin with 11 game roadie to begin the year? How do you feel about that? So, you know, it's not ideal. |
| 2:02.0 | They never, in my to begin the year. How do you feel about that? So I, you know, it's not ideal. |
| 2:02.0 | They never, in my time around the team, I can't ever remember them doing well when they |
| 2:08.0 | open on the coast or in, for that matter, in Texas or Kansas City. |
| 2:12.1 | Anything out of the eastern time zone when they start, to me, usually they start poorly. |
