Transcript

Welcome -- the weekend -- everybody I -- Jim Cozumel -- this is our senior or insider ray rattle and Reyes is a special day you know why. -- I give up one because. It's brought to the that this rip has brought to us by big time bats. And we're display this right in front of -- whoever we're taking good close look right now you can get a limited production. Officially licensed Matt -- perfect game k's in San Francisco Giants ball from big time bats they'll only 2000 qualities have been produced. That's that's. I think that's what I haven't picked that number I don't know I feel I DL they did I can carry it. The case has the game's box score -- help permanent record that monumental achievement Matt -- perfect game the price is 8995 plus shipping. And comes at a thirty day money back guarantee to get it now. Before it sells out. Remember early 2000 its qualities he go to big time -- dot com that's big time bats dot com call an 8662 weeks there'll bats. 8662 weeks there'll be eighteen yes. Thank you very much big time bats but now I'm the real heavy on throwing high hard one. Right because it's my understanding that 2008 re -- crystal ball Lewis. Allegedly use that McCain would be better than Tim Lincecum that in 2008 which right I'm gonna like he has some that are up yet tell me about this scheme that you're trying to. -- -- I just thought that like Paula I'd look at this was not -- thought. I mean -- which was that was one cy young's c'mon. This article eight immediately done that yet. But everybody thought that Lincecum would be hard to -- long time with. Because of the violence and -- quirky nature of Hitler who wears -- was more compact more powerful built more like -- So I was just playing out of play the percentages that this is not. Some sort of look at my greens a lot of brought -- so it's kind of a little bit different here yes I exit in Lexington everybody else's the more you're trying to flex your brain that on this so it's Lincecum. Are we starting to really see the decline. Of one of the great pitchers of the shots we don't know because there are some guys who hit pretty big sample size. Yeah there are guys who you know it is an entire years were all. And then -- -- -- Robin Roberts went all thing with a couple of the he could come out of this now he's not gonna be thrown some 97 and he's gonna have to reinvent himself. But the best pitchers do. They always have a and there are very few power pitchers who went their entire careers staying power Wall Street Journal says this could be. A record breaking year at the worst performance by a pitch with 95 innings. All time are we with witnessing history differences and a work where we love nick Kane and everything he didn't want it Walt. All right big time that's dot com. But we also it is this a different -- of history there's. I don't know again it is the worst performance by pitcher ever ever -- since 19010 -- that said. He's not pitching cholera. He's not pitching on the team with guys were -- -- -- He can steal of few words even if he doesn't have great stuff. I mean what he's got to do is figure it out to keep his strikes. -- close the ball in the east which is working on the edges -- a lot of how he gets killed is when that ball is. Dead -- missed Saturday tipping point. Now now look to the bullpen there vs the Mary to this -- the most they're gonna do. Unless he completely -- holes. Is -- All right I mean there's nothing else he can't we can't -- relief recant that he can't -- as Hedo not now I absolutely. Topic number two. -- -- and because I read it's it's CSN Bay Area dot com we have something upon nominal Cabrera. As this are we seeing a one and done this is the Major League baseball's wanted to -- is -- out of here after this year. He could very well if he continues to hit like this how can you not wanna go -- market while he's going to go in the open market anybody who thinks he's gonna sign early months. Unless the Giants come up with seventeen year we're not good would you wouldn't. No night now he has given you last year the guy had a great year hitting any mentally comes the national -- leading the league in hitting right now. It's a good year for free agent outfielders if your -- So I mean you look at it that Egypt. Chain victory -- that mean you can fill that spot it won't be as good as Cabrera you can't -- a spot -- though rate this this team sells out their ballpark and every night. You got this guy you've got to keep -- a PR nightmare if you are not going to be regularly now but here's the point. They're not gonna go after victory you know unless this -- -- it's OK all I'm saying is if he leads. The falloff. May not be catastrophic. Oh you don't think so I mean this is it far and away the best hitter in the lineup far and away Michael Bourn will be on the market. BJ Upton and mark. Carlos quite market our outfielders to yet it's not like they're gonna be going from him that nature it's. Yep I'm that sad but yes. They're not gonna be able to get a hometown discount it's always say he he says he likes it here. Why would you like -- have his picture ever but he's gonna go in the open market and somebody is likely throw a ton of money Adam. I prohibitively huge part one minute I've got to get you say something nice about the team that's the hottest team in Bay Area sports they have won since the end of their regular season. The Warriors lost. And then they won their own draft pick they won in the draft like getting one of the best small forwards in the draft they won. -- in the trade which you just got Jarrett Jack this team is winning and winning and winning and they're gonna move to San Francisco the Warriors are doing it right -- We have no evidence we had plenty events let me see the next place to you know when they won the unexpected shot not let Ellis trade. The -- illustrate. Bogut has played zero laments. We don't know what they've won. We don't know what they've -- We don't know if Jerry check is great players. No we don't know. He's a great battle at the draft choices secretary greater we don't know Indians. And one of the things that infuriates people Warriors is they claimed victory before they actually cheap. Still I don't -- wait until we see human beings running up and down. When the ball in the hands. And then make a judgment. Right now all we've done is failed. I mean Harrison Barnes is a sensible. Fast is his daily nobody had a completely that -- That Jarrett Jack deal not a problem that we're gonna get rated are all right one way or another. If they get Kenyon Martin all the sudden they're tougher but. None of that necessarily means that they become a playoff team winning the Western Conference patterns -- Windy place when they get in the playoffs and won big time Bulls and I wanna Warriors play off ball. That's what I want to sponsor the segment but for now its big time backs I'm going to hit you with a partner your rip it up that's the rest. That's rare -- Jim Coates and I never thought I'd missed big time stats that count I never thought until it is.
