| 0:01.6 | From the Quantum Fiber Studio, this is Brock & Sock on Seattle Sports. Brock Ewerd is my hero. Jay Buter just punched me in the kidney. We're going to excuse you what I'm running. That way, Sherm. This is a show that has my name on that. It's kind of tough. Now here are your hosts, Brock Eward and Mike Salk. Hello all right mike mcdonald coming up brock at 930 we'll talk to the coach |
| 0:27.1 | and see where they're headed now also i want to mention it's a reaction monday powered by the |
| 0:33.6 | snakwami casino and hotel jeff passin should join us I'm working on Tom Verducci to join us tomorrow as well as he was... And DJ? And DJ. Yeah, I know. If we only do Verduci, if we can do it early. And then if not, I'm trying to do it for Wednesday. But I'm trying to get Tom to come on the show. I saw him yesterday over at the ballpark and chat with him about that. so we're just kind of work through some timing. If we're going to talk about the weekend, I feel like we've got to go back. And we did this earlier. You hit on a little bit of trust and respect in those things. But can we go back to all the conversation we had, even with you have passed and leading up to the roster and the decisions they made for the roster |
| 1:11.6 | the decisions they made with their starting pitchers. |
| 1:14.5 | Yeah. |
| 1:14.8 | And kind of talk and walk through a, as you understand that those decisions then. |
| 1:19.9 | Yes. |
| 1:20.1 | And then how you felt like they played out over the course of the week. |
| 1:23.4 | So obviously the first one is no Brian Wu. |
| 1:26.9 | That's obviously just a, I mean, we all kind of felt that on Friday, right? |
| 1:30.1 | We were talking about it, like, geez, don't like the way he sounds. |
| 1:33.1 | So I don't think any of us could have been that surprised when he did not appear on the ALDS roster. |
| 1:39.6 | What do you do instead? |
| 1:40.8 | You do exactly what you expected them to do nothing, really, right? |
| 1:43.9 | Just go with 12 |
| 1:44.6 | pitchers which is what they did and i have zero problems with that i don't know what other |
| 1:49.3 | pitcher you wanted on the roster was there one no i mean it's not like you're like i can't believe |
| 1:55.2 | casey legamina's not on this playoff roster like logan evans just coming back from being hurt like |
| 1:59.8 | there's no other person that you want and you want the extra batter, especially once you find out about nailers. So yeah, I know issues there whatsoever. I would assume they're going to start Bryce in game four. Don't know that for sure, but I would assume that's what they're going to do. We didn't see them in either of the first two games, which tells me that's what they're |
