N happy Tuesday to everybody welcome into the PHL Phillies podcast as we are not in our normal Studios today as you can tell by the Glorious backdrop Renee myself the rest of the team here at PHL y are live from the Reading Terminal Market one of my absolute favorite

Places in the city such an honor to be here and we are here because the lovely people at Bagels and& company are our presenting sponsor today welcome into the phly show presented by bagels and Company Brooklyn style Bagels made right here in Philadelphia you don’t have to

Go to Rat City New York to get the delicious Bagels that they make up here the people at bagels and Company have brought New York’s finest right here to our backyard in Philadelphia and we’re very very excited to have them a part of everything Renee um we’re going to talk

About the Eagles autopsy for exactly 45 seconds and then move on like it didn’t happen and we’re not living in that reality um before we get to the Phillies news and there is a juicy Little Nugget out there courtesy of Alex coffee that sucked last night it sucked

Because I was at the Sixers game thinking that was going to be better they lost and I was like all right I caught the fourth quar of the Eagles game which was the worst part of the game to catch just bad just overall bad I actually would rather lose if Jaylen

Herdz did not play but a lot of interesting comments came afterwards and it makes me very concerned and I’m not as optimistic as I was before in the Eagles yeah it certainly feels like uh they’re imploding at the worst time of the year you know Andy Reid always said

You know you want to be playing your best football in December well the Eagles are doing the opposite of that and losing to a Drew lock L Seahawks team last night in the fashion that they did uh certainly makes you feel uneasy about their chances of winning anything

Substantial well it makes it worse that you see teams like the bills the 49ers that seem to be trending in the right direction and it feels like it finally caught up to the Eagles that the issues that we saw early or all season have come back to officially bite them and

Now that’s three straight they lose and I’m not that optimistic I mean there needs to be some major changes and adjustments you know I’m all about changes and adjustments on the show guys uh it’s time for some major changes and adjustments in in terms of getting this team right getting them locked in

Getting them more focused as Jaylen Herz alluded to yeah so that was thoroughly depressing so let’s move on this is the Philadelphia Philly show uh you can tune in to all the shows today uh following us today we had a little start because of course when things can go wrong they

Will go wrong and we had a little internet issue that was out of our control this morning so everybody’s kind of been pushed back a little bit the Sixers will be coming up next after us uh and then the Flyers show and then the Eagles show and then the All City NFL

Show so we’ll all be live here today at Reading Terminal brought to you by bagels and Company and I’m really excited about my new mug here uh that I’m drinking out of I love a good mug I’m a mug person for sure absolutely and I love Bagels so this is just a

Partnership made in heaven all right let’s get to the Phillies news because Alex coffee did have a nugget last night as I was sitting in the offices you know waiting for the Eagles game to start I see Alex coffee report that the Phillies are expected to be aggressive in their

Pursuit of Yamamoto now this is still a pipe dream very much so to me but the fact that there’s an aggressiveness tied to the report now um maybe inflated my percentage chance by about 4 to 5% I might be all the way up at like 7% chance this now happens right before we

Went on air John morosi said the Yankees are considered the favorites the bidding war appears to be starting today marosi said the Yankees are the favorite the Mets are going to be involved but there’s also five other teams involved Phillies are expected to be one of those

You couple this with the report that you know maybe the $300 million rumors out there are inaccurate who knows maybe the Phillies are looking at this as their 5year plan and can maybe inherit some shortterm Financial woses to keep it sustainable over a long-term window well uh look for

Everybody that’s tuned in first of all hit that like button while you’re tuned in make sure you’re joining the conversation in the chat uh we don’t have our usual setup to a to see all the comments but we’ll try to tap when we can we love every single one of you for

Sure but what’s interesting about y Moto is it seems like things have taken a Twist so we followed it was there were seven teams of course the Phillies were in the mix with those seven teams then it was the co-favorites of the Yankees and the Dodgers then we hear he doubled

Back and he went to visit the Mets and the Yankees and now we’re also hearing nobody knows where he’s actually going of course and of course him and his team have declined some of those uh initial rumors of the $300 million number and it feels it seems like he wants more is

What the reports are indicating so now as numbers are on the table as teams are officially having those talks I think that makes sense for the philes to be more aggressive because now we’ve had everybody have a chance to be able to give their best offers their Best Bets

And now it’s time if you’re the Phillies to lock in and like we talked about before from a PR perspective at the very least if you’re the Phillies to be able to say we are being aggressive we are trying to get Yamamoto and worst case if

If he goes somewhere else at least we all know based off of these reports the Phillies tried yeah yeah you you know my thought I thought thought you know they they kind of knew they had no chance and might as well go get some free PR out of

It and invigorate your fan base of like they’re trying now with this Alex coffee kind of you know report it’s it does give me a little bit more hope that it’s not that it’s not just that PR move um you know I I do think the Otani contract

Might have shifted some some thinking about how you view contracts and if yamamoto’s making endorsement money and you know you’re obviously not going to get them for $2 million a year but maybe you think about deferring some money down the line as a very loud rolling car

All the cars come through now there’s probably something delicious on that car no they’re empty I looked because I was going to snag something while they I getting hungry and this is my absolute favorite place in the world to be hungry at so uh we will get to much of the Fine

Food today we’ll talk food we’ll talk but I wonder like when they saw that Otani deal like does that kind of change your thinking like if you know Yamamoto is making let’s say6 to8 million in endorsement money from Japan guaranteed right off the bat maybe you can then

Afford to pay him say 15 or 16 per year and offset defer some of that money um teams like deferments players and agents typically don’t it takes a unique case to be in that situation but with the international pull of money and endorsements I wonder if there’s a way

Where the Phillies are going like how creative can we get well is this is we can the now toits in theist Jamie else in last part of 2023 we know shoot your shots pull up from half court whatever you got to do slide in those

DMS do what you got to do because here comes another cart brace yourself wait for it at least give me something I see some meat it looks like on there say me I’m in it looks Frozen though but anyway shoot your shot and for what how everything has unfolded around

Otani I feel like shy Otani has definitely opened the door and like we talked about when we heard the details about the Deferred money the $2 million per year that just like it made us intrigued I’m sure for a lot of other teams like oh wait a minute this is

Possible we can definitely get creative and so even though Dave debrowski has been very admit saying you know we’re not looking to just bring in a superstar we feel good with our starting pitchers you know we feel good with where we are right now if yam with Yamamoto still on

The table you got to at least try to shoot your shot and if you know that you can now try to be a little bit creative the Phillies have a lot to offer look at all this right here this in itself is is something that is worth offering Reading

Terminal Market guys yeah I think if yamamoto’s 30 like it’s a different story you’re not not in uh he’s he’s at at 25 that’s a great point he’s at a point in his career where he can be patient a little bit more and and they can have the shorts cuz they’re in a

They’re in a tough situation where it’s win now mode and it’s an arms race amongst the top Market teams Dodgers um so you’re absolutely because of the core of your team in this win now phase while also you kind of have to look longterm and Yamamoto could be that long-term guy

At 25 year old yeah like it could be have your cake and eat it two here uh if they can pull it out and you know Todd zi in the past has said they’d have to shed payroll to get him um you know they’re right over the tax or the competitive balance tax

Uh of baseball so like I I think the competitive balance tax it’s not my money so this is easy for me to say it’s not really as bad as it sounds like the first tier you’re only going like 5% of what you’re over in tax to the league

The second tier I think becomes 10% so like yeah it’s easy for me to say it’s not that bad to inherit and go into the next tax bracket but like maybe do it if it means you know there’s a real possibility Mick AEL and Griff McGary

And these guys aren’t going to be what you once thought Andrew payer had a surgery you don’t know what he’s going to be like in his trajectory is they are Philly prospects after all so like yeah post Zack Wheeler and Aaron Nola there’s some uncertainty there and

Yamamoto you could be getting him at his core so uh I do think things have shifted a little bit I still think it’s less than 10% but you know hey we’re at the table and John Middleton’s got a lot of funny money to throw around so throw

It around I think it makes sense in this because we’ve talked about planning for the future but also planning and trying to win now and Yamamoto if he pans out with all that we’ve seen from him all the numbers we’ve seen if he pans out to

To pitch at that level gives you that he gives you both at 25 years old he is your future but also at 25 years old able to Jump Right In now he gives you the ability to win now so I think it makes sense for the philes to be

Aggressive because you don’t have to worry about okay we’ve got the prospects which are great I know you all love the prospects but we also have the win now and he can bridge that Gap and also be able to even have the opportunity to now

Come in and you can learn I love being able to learn from not only Caleb cam but also Zach wheeler and Aaron Nola on how to Aaron Nola’s talked a lot about how he manages his body and maintains his health so he can be Mr durable being

Able to learn some of those things from them uh that in itself is valuable but I want to say in the chat I see you guys we you guys Dave P Eugene Krabs Matt Decker uh we’ve got of course Niners all day is here because keep coming back

It’s the same person they were in the E post game chat last night like go enjoy your team you guys are the best team in football right now Cory John Dickerson proo and John we see everybody is here definitely hit the like button while you’re here um I’ve got uh my new name

Item they do a pretzel roll with like sausage or bacon egg and cheese in pretzel that is just absolutely to die oh I missed the partar the comments about scaring people I’m getting compliments that I look like Rogue thanks but also that amamoto might be too young for me actually no because

I’m a little younger than people may think I’m only 31 it’s not terrible but he anyway that’s my brother’s age is off limit yeah um but no you cannot see what was on the carts that have rolled by us but we will have a chance uh maybe to

That hits the spot right there we going to be talking baseball now yeah yeah well we are going to do something stupid where we um try to guess what Phillies would hit up what food here in the readying terminal market this is very good because there’s something for

Everybody here it’s there’s so much delicious food kar’s Caribbean food is also here in ring terminal mark yes they have a location in West pH did I hear say and the in the market yes there’s a location in West Phil there is a location here as well and it’s I mean

Caribbean food is hard to come by like good seasoned Caribbean food yes yes yes that hit the spot that was delicious uh So speaking of John Middleton’s money you’re tasting seasoning for the first time ever no no no I love all food Jamie is very seasoned he’s very seasoned he’s past

The test all right I just had to Ram that in my mouth cuz that was delicious wow oh this is really good too Team all right you take it away I’ll just keep you yeah so the pre-arbitration eligible players have a bonus pool in Major League Baseball meaning if you’re a Ronald

Aunia Jr and you go out and well he was different because he signed an early extension but if you’re a typical player and you go out and win an MVP or a Sai Young or a gold glove there’s an allocated bonus pool uh that you win a

Certain amount I think it’s like $2.5 million for an MVP I think it’s like 2 million for a Sai Young 1.5 for a gold glove there’s all these benchmarks of you know when you’re Bryson stop making Tyler I don’t could you look up what he made last year he’s probably what like

Just shy of maybe just north of a million like he’s still pretty pretty cheap uh because he is pre-arbitration eligible so Bryson St Brandon Marsh Christopher Sanchez are three guys that qualify under this wasn’t even a million dollars yeah I was going to say probably 734 thousand yeah I wanted to say just

Shy of a million but that felt cheap but that’s what the life of baseball is so uh there’s a bonus pool that gets divvied up for people that hit certain qualifiers Bryson stot being a gold glove finalist uh was one of those qualifiers so Bryson stot yesterday

Takes home a nice bonus check of 62838 almost matching his yearly income with the Phillies this past year wow Brandon Marsh takes home 530k and Christopher Sanchez who was tremendous for the Phils this year takes home 280,000 you know not a bad little bonus to get the only thing I love more than

Food is money jie and to get a nice bonus like that those are types of things that also keep your players very happy you know you got to get that nice holiday bonus right on time so 628 th000 hits your account right before Christmas what is Renee Washington doing with with

A cool 628 th000 you might not of considered yours I already did my Christmas shopping so the gifts are done this is a treat yourself um you know I’m I’m booking that plane uh to get to a nice warm spot although I don’t know I’m building myself a sweet golf simulator like

Freestanding house in the backyard I the holidays have a lot of deals it’s very it’s very dangerous there’s a lot of deals I’m a big amazon an online Shopper so I could get carried away um I think I’m gonna try to hold it till the new year

I would go that’s free money and I would know if I’m Bryson stot I got a lot more money coming down the line so I’d just be like I’m spending this well you guys definitely wouldn’t see me for like a week here on the show cuz I’d be gone

I’d be out at least like a seven to 10 day trip probably that I just be out of here probably doing a nice European tour or a long new dad boom 628 th000 well after taxes and agent fees less but regardless nice little day for some of

The young philes gave me answers so is saying I would buy an oonie Pizza Oven I want one of those I that would be so cool those are awesome my cousin has one that suggestion Dave John Dickerson saying I would hire an Italian boot

Maker I do love my boots so maybe I need to upgrade my boots you big heels on today I do have some boots on today I do I do watch out guys uh yeah I mean I don’t know it’s uh will said this show never stays on the rails and he loves it

But yeah you guys will miss me Martian I know I just wouldn’t be here but you know what I’d send pictures oh that’s you know maybe I’d even in remotely from like wherever I just be around the world well that’s the beauty of the internet

You can check in I would just check in from anywhere you guys would get to see me just traveling living my best life for like 10 days yeah that would be nice what would you do I would build a golf simulator like a sweet half bar with like lounge chairs

Maybe a poker table cigar set up whatever and then the other half would be a golf simulator in your basement in your house I want like a freestanding house like that I can walk out to like he said yeah basically okay so that’s what I would

Do I really want a golf simulator badly in my house I just think that would be a lot of fun to go hit balls whenever you want hey if somebody in the business of having golf simulators Jamie shooting a shot my wife would absolutely kill me

Sho that shot J um so here’s something we’ never see you either by the way we’d probably you’d be gone probably seven to 10 days also so it would be Tyler holding down the fort he’ be hosting producing yeah fine see you later I might check in maybe not I might give

You guys like a hundred bucks or something gee thanks um so here is uh something that made me feel very old yesterday in in relation to the Philadelphia Phillies uh speaking of money this was a courtesy of Phillies tailgate on Twitter so it has been and

You know me in in this economy Renee I’m always keeping my eye on that dollar uh this made me feel really old so it has been 5,527 days since the Phillies won the World Series you want to hear some stats from October 2008 in Pennsylvania I know

Where I was October 2008 what do you think a g I believe gas I saw this morning at 4:39 where I passed I could be slightly off there but more or less the ballpark what would you guess a gallon of gas cost the last time the Phillies won the World Series in Pennsylvania

208 damn $210 I promise you I did not look minimum wage but I remember I used to be able cuz around 2008 so I didn’t get my license I don’t want to AG you but I didn’t get my license until shortly after 2008 but I remember being able to get $5

And it put like a half tank of gas in my car like I could fill up my car with like 10 bucks so I just crunched that MK When I first started driving I remember my parents would be like here’s 20 bucks and like you know either bring us back

To change or change or just keep it for like lunch or something like that now my car is like 50 60 bucks easy that I’m to fill up a tank so that’s the last time the Philly remember those days the World Series gas was 210 so in 08 it was it

Was 210 okay uh minimum wage was $75 an hour it is now up to I believe 1525 if I’m not still too low because the way this economy is Jamie as you know damn right you want to take a guess what the average home price was in Pennsylvania uh just in 2008 100,000

$213,000 $200 wow oh wow you know what that would get to these a box yeah not much there home basically like we we’d be in a nicer room right now than what people can get for 200 depending on where you’re living especially by the way guys the the minimum wage in in

Pennsylvania is 725 it’s gone up 10 cents wait I thought there was a nationwide minimum wage raising oh it has hit it hasn’t been a I don’t think it’s officially I don’t think it’s officially been approved I thought it had been so as of right now it’s $720 be

Able to afford this delicious that’s a problem it’s 10 cents in 15 years yeah that’s a problem when gas is like quadrupled in home prices basically that was the selling point for a lot of like high school jobs they’re like well we pay 735 and I’m like Whoa man that extra 10

Cents is really help yeah you can’t do anything with that money no that’s like that’s nothing in this economy you didn’t finish your Patty Rene you didn’t finish your plantain I’m not a big plantain guy do you you can have it you want it do you want the I Banas no

That’s all right I mean that’s weird yeah yeah I know I figured I’d offer though because like you offer me your plantain like I don’t want to I’m a very I plantains remind me of bananas they are bananas I know and I don’t like bananas oh there’s more oh my God ter

Terminy oh wow is it tery oh it’s terman canoli and cookies wow oh boy it’s going to be a lot of calories ingested today wait a minute I was still finishing up my C not going to wait M so we’ve got canoli and cookies canoli I think are an underrated breakfast

Item okay that’s fair is that in fat dialogue that I’m not supposed to say out loud no no I feel like no no actually pies past like it’s basically a breakfast you have it with milk right it’s a well balanced healthy breakfast I support that it can’t be any worse than

Eating like you know lucky charms you know what I mean like if you eat love Lucky Charms of all of sugar that’s what I’m trying to say I still I think I have Lucky Charms in my cabin right now you love Lucky Charms I love sugary cereal

So I’m a um Froot Loops Lucky Charms and I mix my cereal I’m like a boomer with my cereal I like crackn opran Honey Bunches of O multi-grain Cheerios I don’t like the super sweet Stu but I like those I don’t like the super sweet cereals like I was never a Frosted

Flakes guy or any of that stuff I’m a Frosted Flakes I will like a Honey Nut cereal and I mix my cereal you need to try that I support mixing cereals when I was a kid giv a little bit of both yeah so last night when I was doing the show

Prep I looked up a visit Philly article on the best items to eat at Reading Terminal Market yeah we’re going to dive into this and then we’ll get to the m all MLB and uh you know way too early power rankings for next year uh so there was I

Think 13 places listed I added two of my own that I thought got short changed on the visit Philly list including Hershel um so I I thought we would name the places and you decide maybe collaboratively we decide which player would be going to which spot all right I

Think I think the most famous place in ring terminal is Tommy denx a denx roast pork with sharp prob and broccoli Rob I think is the superior Philadelphia sandwich to the cheese steak hot take uh I love cheese steaks don’t get me wrong but if somebody I do too if somebody

From yes you love cheese we all know this Renee if somebody is coming in from out of town and they say what cheese steak should I get I say you can’t go wrong with the majority of them but what you should do is go to Reading Terminal

Market and get a denx because I think denx is just Dynamite if I had to pick the Philly that would be going to the Nix I was going to do a joke there but it’s fine he moved on I Know M no I guess you can’t I think D screams Kyle

Schwarber to me 100% you agree only right answer um I’m trying to think of some okay I’m trying to think of an underdog favorite number two because Kyle Scher to me I see him SLO slopping in on a big Roast beuse Sandwich like no like you know all in not like a

You know some people eat sandwiches cute he’s he’s going in he’s got all the napkin that was a good try guys we made it 29 minutes that’s not a bad thing so we all agree Kyle schwarber is most likely kle Scher I don’t know who the number two is

Though like I don’t even know who else I would maybe go I mean I think we’re all going schwarber because he’s a hefty boy yeah and that’s why I was gonna say Jose but I don’t want to I don’t want to just stick with all the Hefty guys yeah well

You know there’s other stuff to get to like I I don’t know we we’ll go through the list here all right it’s Kyle for sure all right who is the B ice cream guy because bassets is a Philadelphia institution they have a delightful counter over there I think on the Art

Street side um okay okay I’m going Ranger Ranger seems like a nice ice cream man an adorable Ranger a yeah I totally see ranger being the BCE cream and you know just happy bassets is just that might be the best ice cream in the

World I I don’t know I so many though it is so good so good all right now one of the other fine fine items here at Reading Terminal is the donuts at beers now when I used to work in the city we had a a Friday lunch crew that would

Come here every Friday and they would all shout out Ben Hill would always bring back a box of Beer’s donuts for people I berer I always said beers okay so excuse me bers thanks for the correction guys who is the Philly that’s going to bers

I would say I’m getting like a JT real mudo Vibe I could I could see that right yeah cat Donuts I would say Reese if he was still here but he’s no longer one of us which by the way Vince Pini thinks they bring Reese back he was like What

If and I was like I don’t I don’t think so I think so I mean I just think equate donuts and ice cream to someone who’s like soft and very kind and very like lovable I can see Matt stom being a a donut guy I had him for a different spot

All right uh next on the list is what we just ate the delicious canoli from tery who screams canoli to you Renee on the filers Nick Nick yeah I can see that go Nick yeah he’s definitely gives yeah listen I don’t got to think hard about that one I’m definitely going

I agree completely throwing back some canoli all right now the apple dumplings from the Dutch eating place oh oh that sounds so good that kind of sounds like a Jose type of thing apple dumplings um who screams apple dumplings Bryson stot yeah like again I’m thinking dumblings yeah I was

I was going to say dumblings and daycare defin like go hand I was going to say yo for more of like a dessert okay this is a dessert I guess I guess Apple yeah sure sure let’s go yo all right let see what people in the chat are saying while

You’re doing that there uh there’s few things that philadelphians love more than soft pretzels I had heard of stat once you know how like useless information just stays with you for life which is what you have a lot of I have a ton of this I heard this probably like a

Decade ago that your average American eats one pound of pretzels a year your average Philadelphian eats 12 pounds of soft pretzel a year we love soft pretzels here and Miller’s Crossing love sof pretzels excuse me Miller’s twist I keep saying Miller’s Crossing cuz that was a movie Miller’s twist has some soft

Pretzels uh that are absolutely to die for who on the Phillies scream soft pretzel man to you the most big old softy I’m gonna go with uh I had one I don’t know TR Turner is a Florida guy so he doesn’t seem like that to

Me I I’m gonna go I’m gonna go like SoDo or cave I I could see Zack Wheeler being a big soft pretel guy oh yeah actually yeah cuz his wife’s from Jersey so he might have had some like you know maybe she showed up with a bag of SAU pretzels

Once you know it’s in her DNA so um yeah in the chat we’ve got J cave and Alec bone The Apple Dumpling game Alec could be a good one to have some apple dumplings for sure nebras yeah I could see that I could see that for sure for

Sure um toer was thrown in I believe that was for the donuts I believe that Matt Decker was saying topper I could see topper being the donut guy yeah we’ve seen reports he was just black coffee at the winter meetings no he didn’t mess around

With the food oh gosh yeah oh yeah and then yeah he seems like a pastry breakfast person in general or the scrapple from at home Diner over there I love scrapple sitting down at a breakfast pork roll I know people in the chat were talking about pork roll

Earlier some pork roll all right rank your breakfast meats pork roll pork roll one pork bacon bacon too but I always have bacon I don’t always have pork roll it’s weird and then I think pork roll is the most underrated of the breakfast meats because I feel like people outside

Of this area don’t appreciate pork roll no they don’t call Taylor Ham in Jersey notor it’s not whatever else there’s other names for it too it’s got multiple names it’s pork roll bacon uh sausage turkey bacon is up there as well oh scrapples dominates turkey bacon when

You sit down at a diner I would go pork roll one sausage 2 the bacon scrapple debate is a real tough no it’s not no it’s not it’s only a tough one a piece of SC from like at home Diner over there where it’s like crisped up on The Griddle and like the

Proper thickness with I don’t want a thick B bacon I don’t like when it like no I’m talking scrapple it has to be cuz if too thick you lose some some luster see I like scrapple but bacon is still Supreme I have to go bacon just because

Of bacon so I would go scrapple for bacon three final decision wow okay pork roll one though sausage two see it depends if it’s Patties or Lings for sausage very good point because patties but then Diner links are a total listen listen this just became a food

Show guys we are ready to to Market sausage patties sausage link saage Diner links three different complain tastes I completely agree and the patties are the best so who so we going on Topper was the scrapple guy down down home scrapple guy for sure so there’s the cheese boats

Which I unfamiliar with over guys Samy SoMo it’s like right over there actually not far away from us I have not tried so I will have to get to that today I don’t know who’s going on cheese boats on the Phillies what is it I don’t even understand my my non- cheese eating

Brain can’t compute well you actually love cheese no I don’t know anybody know it what is it cheese boats yes boats and cheese a cheese boat I think it’s like in a bread you see this like oh that’s so much cheese yeah can that be replaced

With like is that an egg that one has an egg in it I don’t think they all have to be and is that bread mhm it’s bread it’s like a cheesy soup yeah no I’m sorry I can’t I can’t be in this conversation have handle this one

Yourself yeah uh and then there’s a ton of other great items here including uh you know the the Rubin from Hershel’s Carmen’s Italian hogies uh you got sweet potato pies from sweet teas Bakery you got roast duck and pork noodle platters uh at the duck house there’s so much

Great stuff here I think I think uh Aaron’s going to the duck house I can see that Aaron’s at the duck house for sure guys that makes a lot of sense a Hunters he lik that g yeah like he probably eats like lamb and alligator and duck and shark and

Totally squid and whatever other animal eat an alligator I don’t know actually cuz sometimes I feel like not knowingly yeah like I feel like unknowingly I did um it tastes like chicken honestly I saw an alligator that somebody was eating that literally looked like an alligator

Yes like it wasn’t it wasn’t the me it wasn’t like alligator cuz there’s like alligator balls it’s like cheese balls but it’s alligator no it’s a real thing Google it I believe you’s alligator you’re second guessing yourself but then there’s alligator you can get where it’s like

Literally they it looks like they just took the alligator out the swamp and popped it on the table yes I’ve seen that at Barbe like LSU games they’ll put like a gator out on the table uh so yeah there’s a ton of great people like gator

Ed G it was better than I thought it was going to be did it tastes like chicken cuz that’s what everybody always says yeah kind of but I don’t understand how everything tastes like chicken but it’s not chicken just weird just my I know it’s just generic I guess alligator eggs

Dave P is saying are a good thing in the South whoa instead of like chicken eggs do they like are they just in the grocery store you like a section the egg section and then there’s like stealing eggs from an alligator well I feel like you buy them in the

Grocery store Dave please give us more information some harvesting those and that’s wild oh yeah somebody’s got to steal them oh God and where do alligator it’s the guy that goes and gets the eggs yeah I have so many questions because I don’t know where alligator eggs are what

Is happening we’re talking food Tyler’s like this is supposed to be baseball all right so I guess we’ll get back to the baseball nuggets oh yeah the chat’s going wild I’m just not going to read this anymore because you guys have some crazy crazy things oh from the war boy I

Don’t I do remember the gator okay all right so let’s get to some of the other MLB news going around right now we teased it yesterday we wanted to run through the all MLB team we got wrap up soon that were announced over the weekend uh we didn’t get to them in

Depth yesterday but the headline was a lot of Braves no Phillies and you project this year one of the things you know dumbrowski has mentioned I think the fan base is banking on is a full season of Bryce Harper gets in those discussions again to be a first or second te all MLB

Player and the expectation should be that Trey Turner and JT real Muto also are on those levels of being first or second Team all MLB players so hopefully at least one of those three I don’t think schwarber is ever really gonna have a shot unless DH is considered and

He’s a true DH this year not a left fielder so he might look if he hits 45 to 50 home runs he’ll probably be in that discussion um that’s probably it maybe Bryson sty could Elevate his game another level and get to a second Team

All MLB that was the headline so what is the actual all MLB teams R well Jamie you know where you can elevate your game that’s over at the game time app because the game time app is the spot where you’re able to find great prices great

Tickets I was just at the W Spargo Center last night it make it so easy for you to be able to get your tickets and you know what I did not use the game time app unfortunately because somebody my dad gave me the tickets I was

Stumbling at the door and I was like gosh I wish I had the game time M literally as I was getting in the cold so game time app makes it so much easier for you so you’re not waiting out in the cold looking for your tickets you’re not

Wondering how you can get your tickets because you’re having Wi-Fi issues but you also can see your seats so as you’re purchasing your tickets you now have the opportunity to see where you’re seated so you and your buddies have a nice idea of what the court view is going to be or

Maybe you’re at a comedy show or a concert and they make it so easy for you so great prices nice and easy use that code Phi to get your discount of 10% off at the game time app and was it $20 off oh boy at the game time $2 off my bad my

Bad why you’re going from memory here huh you’re just going straight from memory no notes no nothing what a baby game time use Game Time app $20 off when you use code pH at the game time app so back to your actual question jie hopefully my wife isn’t watching but I

Just got her a little stocking stuffer through game time with don’t reveal gifts on air because what if she what if somebody she’s a teacher she better be working you know the future Generations need her right now be watching a YouTube show different teachers that watch us

That are like on their break or it’s movie time for the kids but I did use game time again and it’s great don’t don’t reveal gifts on here guys all right so the all MLB teams as we discussed yesterday with the Rangers having six between the two the Braves

Having five between the two it’s three on the first team is unreal but it also makes me hope this year for the Phillies I’m using that as some ammun ammunition you know because of course as we know Bryce didn’t play a full season Trey it wasn’t until that August Standing

Ovation that he got right um as you mention Kyle Sher he just really has a very unlikely chance of being an all MLB player and then Zack Wheeler you know Aaron Nola if I’m these guys Bryson Scott I’m playing with a little extra um motivation going into this season to not

Only have a complete season but to get some respect and to have the Affiliates go to the NLCS and not have a single player not one player the Diamondbacks had Corbin Carroll the as we already know what the ranges and the awesome of course of course the Orioles had someone

Josh haer made the list the Yankees had players you know a lot of teams are represented and you don’t want to see your team get snubbed so uh it’s not a snub in this sense because it’s it makes sense they didn’t have a full complete season but I’m hoping that next year

We’re having the same conversation that it should be Bryce Trey Zack um Bryson that we’re looking at as all MLB players for sure yeah absolutely and if you wanted to get like say a sports card for some you know somebody you love or care for this holiday season I would

Recommend you go get that Bryson stop card now and I would recommend going to wheelhouse cards because they have two convenient locations in Wayne and Westchester and they’re an absolutely awesome place this time of the year all year round but especially at the holidays because not only do they have

Cards uh like your favorite Brands like top Chrome baseball and Mosaic football they also have a ton of gear in store with awesome you know t-shirts hats hoodies from Brands like Mitchell and Nest 47 Brand junk food starter and one of my favorites in town shy vintage

Sports and if you’re looking to have your sports card collection graded well wheelhouse offers PSA grading submissions they also host a ton of different familyfriendly events and birthday parties every single month so stop into either of their stores in Wayne or Westchester open S days a week

At 11:00 a.m. and use that code phly to get $10 off any purchase of $25 or more in store and be give be sure to give them a follow on Instagram wheelhouse cards all right Jamie I want to just give a quick shout out again to those in

The chat I know Ming time is here again it’s funny we’ve got some usuals that are here that aren’t really the biggest Philly sports fans but while you’re here hit that Thumbs Up Button make sure that you’re uh liking and following Santiago Ming time Dave will whether you hate us

Or you love us we’re happy that you here um Eugene crb of course Martian Lynch Matt Deckard so all of our a lot of our usual friends and some other new faces here in the chat to join us uh live from ring Terminal Market yeah and we’re

Brought to you by our new uh partner here at bagels and Company we’re so EXC oh my God the denx is here you spoke it up oh let me continue talking Bagels but denx is in my face I just went with fat Joy it’s okay uh but yes bagels and

Company is awesome you don’t have to go all the way to New York anymore to get Brooklyn style Bagels made right here in Philadelphia they’re taking the best of New York and bringing it to Philadelphia and I appreciate that because nobody wants to go up to rat city so thank you

To Bagels and Company for being our pres Kyle shorer style oh yeah oh man a denx this is this is look at Rene you know what’s in there I know I just got it actually I’m not Li sharp proone I’m not going to lie I literally just got it I was like oh

No good it’s so good nothing like stuff in my face on the internet right oh no wait wait I don’t have cheese what am I tasting I like how you actually like cheese and you think you don’t like cheese I don’t like cheese yours has cheese on it you love cheese steaks you

Love cheese pizza and you love mozzarella sticks yet you hate cheese help me make that make sense in my mind we’re not doing this right now Jamie sharp Pro alone got we’re not doing this right now Tom many Den right over there Qui sense it makes sense

Cheese depending on how it’s cooked and what it’s flavored with tastes completely different sure I only like three things with cheese bread I don’t like cheese bread well no what do you think Pizza is oh yeah yeah yeah pizza cheese steak and mozzarella steti that’s it it’s all

Breing and cheese yeah everything else is gross I’m not the crazy one here you can’t say you hate cheese or are all of you crazy and I’m the S one that’s what it really comes down to everybody that likes cheese and I will say there’s some health benefits to not eating cheese

Sure boom there’s health benefits to not eating a lot of things but I continue to eat them and that’s why this place is one of my favorite places on Earth um so let’s get to the way too early Power Rankings that were put out by you like a little late December

Christmas Power love that we always in sports do power rankings and everything all the time because why the content machine doesn’t stop yeah why not it doesn’t matter if it’s December we’re given Power Rankings and I think I agree with their top I think uh around seven I start to

Have disagreements but I think their top six is pretty spot on Tyler feel free to hop in this conversation as well anybody want to take a guest who was listed as the top team in major league baseball get out I already saw this though there’s there’s a right answer and

There’s an answer they’re going to give what do you think the right answer the right answer is the Atlanta Braves oh the answer they’re going to give you is probably either the team that just won the World Series or the LA Dodgers the Los Angeles Dodgers they listed as

Number one so you think Brave should be number one it’s the showy Otani effect no one is gonna listen mooki showy and Freddy together alone catapult them to number one even though as many they might add more right well glass now definitely on the pitching side because that’s been the biggest thing people

Have said well they still don’t have because oina can’t pitch this upcoming season it needs a year they still haven’t locked in their starting pitching but the Dodgers aren’t done yet apparently so number one I think that’s why they still are number one Dustin may is hurt Tony gonlin is hurt you’re

Banking on a bunch of guys who are very young2 that rotation is going to be nasty really good in 2025 and probably they should be rightfully show the number one team in 2025 so you brought him up the defending World Champs number two on this list it’s just crazy to not

Be number one after winning the World Series yeah well showy Otani baby but there’s I mean there’s a likelihood they may lose their top two pitchers Montgomery montg is probably gone but do they counterbalance that with a snell or a hater they’re going to make moves let

Me rephrase that have all these back right uh I believe so yes for one more year and he was spectacular for them uh I’m curious to see you know Yamamoto all these pitchers on the uh on the hot stove out there are just waiting for Yamamoto to decide so they can go to

The next highest bidder wherever he goes is going to jump their team up in the power R going triple down pitcher economics uh so the Rangers were listed second in these way too early Power Rankings the Braves Tyler your number one are listed as third um and then the

Philes top three is interchangeable yeah and then the Phillies coming forth Astros five Yankees six I would have the Orioles above the Diamondbacks they have Diamondbacks seven Orioles eight theat yeah Rays nine Blue Jays 10 so I mean the teams in the NL because that in baseball that’s all

You really have to worry about you have the Dodgers the Phillies the Braves and the Diamondbacks so four of the top 10 teams uh by a lot of people’s standards are NL teams so you know the Braves the Phillies aren’t afraid of so that’s fine

Yeah exactly it’s nice to be in the top five yeah and I’m interested to see how things continue to shift especially as more trades and signings happen wherever Yamamoto goes I imagine there’s going to be a boost there um and hopefully Alex goof is right they’re super aggressive and go get this guy

Love I mean I would love that to happen you want to get this city irrational about the Phillies again go get Yamamoto and add them to this mix people will start getting nuts well because we all had this sliver of hope that Yamamoto is gonna actually be able to you know the

Phillys are gonna actually be able to bring in Yamamoto especially once we heard the news of the finances and the Big Money numbers and then when Dave came out and said oh we’re not really looking to bring in a superstar we all kind of are like backpedaling and just

You know accepted Our Fate accepted that we’re you know we’re not going to get Yamoto but now to see coffee mentioned that the philings are being aggressive oh man that hope just went up a little bit yeah it did it Rose a couple percentage points and you know s it

Seems like Yamamoto kind of like the first round was are you serious about this right here’s the number we’re looking for do you want to negotiate and it seems like all the big Market teams that got past that and the floodgates are open because what was it January 4th

The January 4th it is already December 19th so we are six days away from Christmas 13 days away from New Year’s and that puts us 16 days away from January 4th yeah so it’s you know the bidding wars have uh started today according to John morosi and the Yankees

Appear to be the favorite uh we’ll see if Steve Cohen and his weird tiger shark uh are the second contenders there but hopefully the Phillies can uh you know get nuts because I’d like to see some irrational spending not that they don’t spend enough they’re not cheap well it

Beal I want to get IR rational yeah and I want to see a big splash you know like this with Yamamoto still up for grabs uh go all in push all your chips in go all in see what you can do because it absolutely would be a great addition for

The now and for the future to be able to bring in Yamamoto and as we know there’s still concerned he hasn’t pitched once in the majors yet despite his tremendous performance at the World Baseball Classic and everything he’s done uh with rocking up Awards we still haven’t seen

Him in the majors yet but I think he’s going to pan out I don’t think he’s going to be a bust or anything and I’m hoping as you snap pictures I am taking a picture of my Sport and sending it to some buddies to rub it in uh as we wrap
