00:00We did have a signing just a little while ago, as we still have some free agents out
00:05there.
00:06The fisherman, Charlie Morton, keeping it going, Scotty, as he's going to make a stop
00:12at pretty much everywhere along the eastern seaboard at some point.
00:16He now will stop in Baltimore for one year, 15 million bucks.
00:20Charlie Morton, one of the guys in the Oriole rotation a year from now.
00:25How about that?
00:26Charlie Morton keeps getting real deals.
00:27What is happening here?
00:28Go away.
00:30Well, yeah, the fisherman wants to keep playing.
00:34I mean, he wasn't that bad in Atlanta last year, I guess.
00:37I mean, he wasn't that bad.
00:39Yes, he was.
00:40Now, the top five remaining free agents in Major League Baseball, of course, Roki Suzaki,
00:47the pitcher who I saw today, the agent said, Scotty, that he is close to making his decision
00:55on where he's going to play.
00:56Now, remember, that's not a money thing.
00:58Everyone can really only offer the same amount of money.
01:00That's really down to where he wants to play.
01:02So we'll see where that is.
01:04Dodgers get everyone.
01:05Dodgers.
01:06Dodgers get everyone.
01:07So it'll probably get them, too.
01:09Alex Bregman, Pete Alonso, Anthony Santander, and Jack Flaherty, the other top four guys.
01:17I have seen in the papers here in New York that there is a problem between the Mets and
01:23Scott Boris in terms of how much money in years they want to give Pete Alonso.
01:29Obviously, Boris wants it all, and the Mets seem not to be willing.
01:32How about the Mets?
01:33All of a sudden, they're not willing to open up the wallet for a guy who's been there for
01:38a long time, Pete Alonso.
01:39Yeah, I think it's, frankly, disturbing.
01:44I've never believed.
01:45I told you a hundred times, I said, I don't think they're going to pay him.
01:48I don't think they're going to give him what he wants.
01:51And that's because they gave all that money to Soto.
01:53Another one, Bregman.
01:54They treat Bregman like he's 80 years old.
01:56They treat him like he has no career left whatsoever.
02:00Nobody wants him.
02:01I am surprised that Santander doesn't have a job yet with that pop, and I'm even more
02:06surprised that Jack Flaherty doesn't have a job because, I mean, the Dodgers treated
02:10Jack Flaherty like he was Drysdale, unless that's fact.
02:16You would think he was Whitey Ford, the way he was treated by the Dodgers, and how a great
02:23and so magnificent pitcher, just unhittable, and now the guy can't find a job?
02:29You have got to be kidding me.
02:32It doesn't make a lot of sense, and I'll say this too about Alonso, where the Mets need
02:36to be careful.
02:37If they actually want him back, I would just go and pay him the money because if they let
02:42this linger on a little bit more, Boris is going to go get some $200 million deal from
02:47some dopey team like the Angels, and he's going to talk Pete into taking it, and he's
02:51going to go play somewhere else.
02:52So the Mets better figure it out too.
02:53Just like Burns did with the Diamondbacks.
02:55Burns wanted no part of that.
02:57He just went and they gave him the most money, mercenary hire, again there.
03:02So I think you're right.
