| 0:10.0 | The locker room and while I may not be a big locker room chemistry kind of guy, I do believe that locker rooms can be ruined by in action and by dumb traits. So a couple of days ago and I did this on the show. I didn't do this here on the RICO so I'll explain it real quick. |
| 0:26.0 | Brandon Nimo made a comment about how they basically need bullpen out. |
| 0:31.0 | And we talked about it on the air and I said that sounds like a guy, a leader of this team, talking to the front office and saying, hey, we need bullpen help.
