Ken Tries to Bully John into Ripping Tanner Bibee

0:00That's Frank John in for a second here. We got Zach Jackson coming up at seven and then I want to get it. It's 720 then I want to get back into this Cuz I got a bunch of goofballs. Oh, Ken does want to take chances anymore. Yeah, no, that's fine taking the chances on all that Yeah, I think I'm I think I'm in the right on that one. Okay. Hi John. How are you? Oh, we gotta get us there I'm great. Can I are you good? Do you want to can you do me a favoring? Can you rip on a Can you rip on Tanner Bobby? Can you do that for last date was a bad start? Okay, but what I need you to be like mean and say like he needs to be sent down or DFA or something like that. I wish that I could I really wish that this is gonna backfire in you big time Why is this gonna backfire on me? I just cuz I'm not gonna be I'm not gonna be as angry about it as you want me to be because Why need you to for the good of Guardians fans? I'm not trying to make you look bad. I need you to do it. I know I just like he is

1:02You said Rosie said it last night. He has so many quality starts and honestly like he has what six he has 15 losses on the season A lot of those are because his offense won't score for him the other night against the Royals on Friday night He pitched super well and The offense couldn't score for me. I had one right over six innings and they couldn't get the job time I'm just saying because you you went after chased a lot earlier this year and chased the lotters basically All-star quality. Yeah You said Travis Bazonah needed to be set down yet three RBI's last night right now eight RBI's over his last four games Seven of his last 13 two home runs eight RBI last four games. That's a hell of a day walkoff single. Yeah walkoff single That's a hell of a stretch ever since you said nasty things about Travis Bazonah even comment. It's worked out So I'm kind of using you as a way like if you could just rip on Tanner Bobby Joey Cantillo That might help if you want to go ahead and rip on Joey Cantillo. Yeah, so can't let's just stop walking people he needs to stop walking

2:04He was digit so well beginning of the year Maybe so much hope he needs to stop breaking walking. He's got to stop walking me Well you stop it right now. You think so you're gonna do you gonna tell to throw strikes Just go to the mound and be like those strikes dammit throw strikes That's always the best make sure eight. Let's calm down throw strikes. Oh, okay. I didn't know is that ease It seems I need you to do it John just help us out here It seems like no matter when we pick this up and and look at the standings They're always kind of right in the same place right they're like within Within shooting distance of shouting distance of you know the wild card and Both they're in the wild card right now and closing the gap on the white socks What is your level of certainty with 16 games left to make the playoffs mine 60% that's yeah, I kind of feel like that's where I'm at too 60 like all on and It just takes one bad I thought you were talking to John. It just takes one bad week of baseball

3:05And they could be out of this thing and then we're like what how did that happen? Well, it seems to be do or die for everybody like you were you were making an argument about shortening the schedule And I'm like well nothing's been learned so far. Well, that's what I mean That's we haven't learned anything. I think just For for baseball to capture the they've done such a great job of getting people invested in the game again You know regardless of what happens this offseason But I do think now as football continues to expand the footprint right we're playing a game tonight We're playing a game tomorrow. They got obviously high school football on Fridays Which I did not know is not everywhere because of 9-11. I did not know that was a thing That a bunch of places I heard this yesterday on the afternoon show. Oh, yeah, there's like a dozen Thursday games Yeah, for our schedule like we have to send a bunch of people out for on Thursday over at eight To film Thursday night games so we can put in on Friday night touchdown. Yeah But it's it's not everywhere, but I didn't know that was uh that was a thing has happened and a yearly thing Or is it just because of this one martian probably because it falls on Friday

4:09Yeah, and it's also a big anniversary. Yeah, the 25th We can't do coming in hot on no no, I think we can't but but either way And then obviously you've got massive college football games with Saturday then you got more NFL on Sunday like baseball really does need to figure out a way to shorten the season and get out by late. How do they do? It takes one just not it's just not gonna get it's not but it's not gonna be a part of the public conversation Sorry, but these that's that's the issue is that you need to stop trying to compete with the NFL I know what it should try to compete with the NFL. It's it's not necessarily competing It's just like I feel like you just said it Ken are we gonna learn more about the Guardians over the next 16 games What we already have what time we guard today's a Wednesday what time do the guardos play today is it get away? Is it 640 at night? All right, so I'll tell you right now as a guardians fan. Let me just say this real quick Is a guardians fan? I will start watching the Guardians game tonight. I have the I have the preview showing everything But I'm tell you how it's gonna go in the background right now I will check in to the Guardians game at 640 right after

5:09When we go on the air at 7 I'll do the show I've the Guardians on in the background. I imagine kickoff tonight for Seattle and New England is like 815 820 All right, I'll watch kickoff and I'll go back to the Guardians of the Guardians game is still going on Which it should be and then I'll watch to the end of the Guardians game and then I'll watch the football game until I fall asleep He's tonight like I'm still gonna watch the Guardians. I don't think that that's I don't think that they need to stop the season Just because the NFL is is going into their season That there's room for other sports. This is America. I feel and that by that logic like why doesn't the NBA start in February Thank you very much like if if if baseball I think we all say the NBA should shorten their season. Oh, Bule says it's Russia Shana on on Friday as well. Okay Someone told me specifically because 9-11's falls on Friday, but there's also Russia Shana apparently I did not know that yeah I'm just saying obviously that would be a reason like even playoff baseball every year goes up against the NFL We understand that but it's the playoffs, right? So the playoffs if your team is in it and everything

6:12It's just it doesn't have the national lore that it used to and probably never will again But I also think like as the NFL continues to expand like they added another another game You've had these ideas and so many times over and I just don't like like you wanted to move college football to the spring And I don't know why did you want to move college football of the same college football by itself Would be the second biggest sport by far like by itself. It would it would have no problem Is it not already estimating yeah, but it doesn't get talked about on Monday Because we have It doesn't get the but in most of America The national shows certainly aren't talking college football on Monday. Heather a bit of show on Monday But there was a show on Tuesday and Wednesday. We're having the Matt commissioner on today See that there's some big time college football being spoken about coming up Well, when you get the Michigan second, you know, that's gonna look forever Maybe there will be another Michigan second coming up here momentarily But I don't think that they need like partly a lot of baseball

7:13You have no problem like when people bring up all the time Shorten the season get down to 150 something you're like no five hundred sixty-two's fine. 162. Yeah, I'm fine with that I think it's like 20 games too much I mean the fact that there are still races this close shows that you don't happen you which would happen 20 games early What do you have been 20 games later? Okay, but what 200 games John? What are you busy with you can't pay attention to the Guardians? No, it's just it's what do you mean too busy like obvious I'm gonna be watching like on Sunday. I'll be watching the Browns at one o'clock. Okay, Guardians play two The Guardians are gonna get a lot of love Um there playing oh god forbid you have the multi-screen setup like you can get with extent technology Yeah, I can have eight things on but okay at the end. I'm gonna focus on one thing. I don't I understand that who realistically is up there going Oh, I just don't understand why it has to be such this thing luck board Okay, but I got 30 things no way I don't get that we have to sit there and laser focus in on every single effing thing that comes with the NFL

8:14My Listen to everything he said I can't do it. What what's your problem? You're trampled over two other great references. I Can't get your jokes and I didn't realize this was a stand-up show. I didn't realize we're in the improv. I had no one like in the whole Now nobody gets to hear it now Look at your old doing a magic trick at a Christmas party make sure he gets his lines in From a little mind. No, Mocha. Joel was a great show. What what what you're making fun in the whammies? No, that was the first reference That was the pressure luck one What was the second reference? It was remote control if you remember the final sequence of remote control how you won the grand prize much like the theme of this segment This period is went on just a little you think Anyway, John go say some nasty stuff about Tanner Bobby, okay I don't know man. He's doing just say you will and just move on tweet something nasty about him just for you the next time he starts

9:15All right. Thank you very much For the love of God John Steinb record joins us at nine. Yeah, blame the afternoon show They were the ones that said it was the 9-11 reason that they switched the I saw a bunch of people say it's Russia Shana I understand that's not what I heard on the afternoon show. I was told specifically at another place by somebody else that it also has to do with 9-11 being on Friday So I both can be true And the words of Nick both these things can be true Coming up at eight o'clock we go around the Fc North all right can Zach join us tomorrow next I'm gonna say tomorrow next Zach Jackson also athletic I'm sure he agrees with you about the football because I don't think he really likes well He likes a little bit of basketball Zach Jackson's gonna join us next the Shawn Watts and your starter on Sunday But for how long and could we see tailing green really at that number two spot We know what the head coach said. Let's see what Zach's been here and coming up in five on the face
