00:00 The Diamondbacks lost today, right?
00:02 Seven five, I guess Riley had a couple of big home runs and the Braves finally beat
00:09 him.
00:10 What would you say has happened to them over the last 30 days?
00:17 I think come down to earth maybe a little bit.
00:20 I think they caught the National League West early when they were still trying to figure
00:24 some things out.
00:25 The Dodgers are young this year.
00:27 The Diamondbacks have great energy.
00:28 Tori Lovello, he's a guy you should try to get on the show, the manager.
00:31 He's been there through the ups and downs.
00:32 People really buy in.
00:33 Pitching is young.
00:36 They have Zach Gallen.
00:37 He's excellent.
00:38 They have Merrill Kelly, who's, you know, probably would have been on the all-star team
00:43 if he wouldn't have developed a blood clot and had to go on the injured list.
00:47 So those two guys at the top of the rotation, a bullpen that's kind of pieced things together,
00:52 but the bullpen's been used a lot.
00:54 They're young or they're really old.
00:56 You have like an Andrew Chafin who looks like Rod Beck, and he's making saves.
01:01 He's getting the job done at 93.
01:03 And then you have some high-end guys.
01:04 Dre Jamison, Mikey Castro today got touched up for back-to-back home runs.
01:10 They throw really hard, but just, I tell my kids this all the time, they play baseball,
01:13 I'm like, just because you throw really hard doesn't mean you're a really good pitcher.
01:17 You can throw really hard, but also if you throw really hard and guys can catch up to
01:21 it, they're going to hit it really far.
01:22 So they're still trying to figure it out.
01:23 I think they're a year ahead of schedule, but we'll take it after the last couple of
01:27 years we've had around here.
