You need Indeed. Good afternoon, everybody. My name is Bart Winkler.
This is Into the Winklerverse. We have a live edition on Thursday, July 11, after the Brewers just lost to the Pirates. Paul Skeens, a terrific performance in this game. Aaron Savale did his best to match him, which it was a real competitive pitcher's duel of a game. You knew it would probably be a one-run game, but it came in favor of the Pirates.
On the All-Star week, which is interesting because the Brewers have typically, under Craig Council, been bad this week. We ran through that the other day on a show we did earlier this week. Again, you can find all these. Into the Winklerverse, Spotify, Apple, YouTube, and such. Also, don't forget the Bart Winkler Show on the Infinity Sports Network. One of the things I'll be discussing there tonight is how the no-hitter, fear of one, is sort of dead. I understand there's been some, but it's just not the same that it used to be. I do want to cover a few other things here on this Thursday afternoon, including the U.S. men's national team firing Greg Berhalter for the second time. That news is coming out on Wednesday. And then just some quick thoughts on the RNC coming to Milwaukee. I drove down there around 1.30, 2 a.m. last night.
Again, I have thoughts that I would have no matter what was happening. It could be the green party. It could be the Bart Winkler party. Just some things that are happening downtown.
I would like to share my thoughts on that. Brewers get the dub is what I would have said last night. Today they lose 1-0 to the Pirates. Paul Skeans in this game. 7 innings, 11 strikeouts. Actually made history according to Sarah Langs. He is the first pitcher since 1901 with 7 or more strikeouts in at least 10 of his first 11 career appearances. He had 7 no-hit innings today and a high of 11 strikeouts. Tim Shea, missing person's report, has been put on ice because he is here.
Tim Shea. I haven't seen you in forever. What's up buddy? What's going on? Are you at your apartment still while you can be or are you somewhere else?
No, I'm somewhere else but I am going back to my apartment soon actually. I am in the gold zone. The second security zone. From Nathaniel Hackett? The gold zone? The gold zone.
I am in the second security. I want to talk to you about that in a minute. Brewers?
I just couldn't get it done. The thing that bothered me about this game, obviously they lost, fine. They are still very good. I am curious how the All-Star break will work in terms of this final week of the season. Remember, Council is always bad this week. They are 1-2 right now. They have the Nationals coming in on Friday night. When Paul Skeens was throwing a no-hitter, through 4, through 5, through 6, there was never any fear that the Brewers would be no hit.
Because you knew that they were going to take him out of that game at some point. Even BA and Roc through the broadcast, in the past it would be, who is going to be the one to get this hit? How are we going to get this hit off of Paul Skeens? But the way that you broadcast now, and the way that you react as fans, is how do we get this guy out of the game? How do we get him to 100 pitches? Worth the count. They are already talking about his pitch count in the second or third inning as it was a little higher.
Because that is what you have to do. You pull these guys, immediately the next guy that comes in gives up a bunch of hits. Now the Brewers couldn't do anything with the situation they had in the eighth, which is a bummer. But that is where the no-hitters seem to rest. There were still a few last year.
I am going to go through a bunch of this tonight. But even in the case of the Brewers, we have our one no-hitter. You forget that we have a second no-hitter with Corbin Burns because he got pulled for Josh Hayter. So the no-hitter, I don't want the Brewers to be no-hit against. But wasn't there a summer they were no-hit three times?
Something like that. At least twice. Verlander. Yeah, Verlander and Detroit. But there is never, like I put out a tweet, like there is a no-hitter to jinx him. But you are not jinxing him. You know he is going to get pulled. You know the guy is going to come in. The fear of the no-hitter is gone. So from your team's standpoint, it is not as cool because you probably won't get a no-hitter.
But the fear, sometimes as a sports fan, I don't know. I kind of miss worrying, I think. Who is talking?
Where are you? Austin says why is Tim lying down? Because I still wake up at one o'clock in the morning. Sean says Tim has to lie down as much as possible due to his inhumanly massive heart.
Which causes him to be unbalanced much of the time and it is exhausting for him. Taylor says I should not be asking you any questions without getting the shakeaways going. I have no shakeaways right now. Give me three shakeaways.
I have more, I have like pennants. Give me three shakeaways on the state of no-hitters in baseball. They are not fun anymore.
Right? I mean, they are not exciting. I mean, I probably wouldn't stay for a no-hitter if it was the Brewers getting no-hit against.
Honestly. You know, like, if they were throwing a no-hitter, I might stay. If the Brewers are throwing one, you're leaving? No, if the Brewers are getting no-hit. Like today, I would have lost.
Well, you would leave because you know that Skeens is going to get taken out and it's going to get broken up. Yeah. I was kind of shocked he actually got taken out. He only had 13 pitches in the 6 and 7. He was up to 99. You know, he was at 99 pitches.
Nobody throws over 100 anymore. If it's a perfect game, do you think he stays in? No.
See, I think perfect games are a little more prestigious. No, this is a rookie guy. You know, they're taking care of him. He's going to start the All-Star, or maybe people are wanting him to start the All-Star game, which I think he should. He will. It's set up for him to. Well, it's set up for him to pitch.
Yeah, it's set up for him to start. Monday. Tuesday. Tuesday.
So he gets an extra day of rest. Well, yeah, but okay. He's starting, okay? Just end that talk right now. Okay. All right. Oh, yeah.
John Gruden. But if he was dealing at the end of the game, who's to say, like, even you give him another inning, if it's 10 pitches or less, that's 110 pitches. You give him one more inning, see if he can do it. This is the state of baseball, which I understand why it's this way, like I do. But and I'm not it's almost like I'm advocating that I wanted the Brewers to get no hit, which I obviously don't.
But I just think that the way the game is going, it's like you've taken all the thrill out of that, which is a bummer. I like your hat. Where did you get it from? So my hat is like what you see on license plates. Yeah. And the old license plate. Well, they still have this logo, don't they?
Yeah, they do. It's yeah. Yeah. So I was at my kid's soccer and I saw a guy wearing a hat like this. And so I immediately went online and typed in Wisconsin license plate hat and I bought it.
So that's that's where I got this hat. Cool. Yeah. I feel like you don't want to converse with me about the no, no. I about the what about the lack of no hitter? No, I mean, I just I don't hit it.
Sure. We almost got no hit. Like there's nothing like it's it's there's no sure. You almost got no hit.
I'm going to put you on a two month vacation again. We lost one nothing. It's it was a great pitcher's tool.
That's there. Don't hit it. Like I said, no hitters are not really exciting. Sure.
You had everyone say no hitter, no hitter, no hitter on line and on Twitter and whatnot. But they're just now. Well, they're not. It's that they're not going to happen. That's that's the end part. So if you think they happen, you're like, whoa, that was cool. Then, oh, you're saying there's not cool at all. I just don't know.
I don't. Well, maybe you're onto something there, too, because baseball, the offense is bad now. Isn't the major league average like 230?
Yeah. Something like that to to to I want to say like 242. Like if you throw no hitter against guys that hit 300, that's one thing. But if you throw a no hitter against 212.
Like, hey, what did you do at work today? Oh, I threw no hitter against a lineup that had Jake Bowers, Andrew Montesterio and Blake Perkins. Oh, good for you.
But if you say, oh, I did it against Mookie Betts, Shohei Itani and Freddie Freeman. You look like you're relaxed on some Delta nine, Tim. Yeah, I am. Yeah. You still doing that? Yeah. CBD, CBN. Oh, I see the logo now at night. Happy place, huh?
Got the Delta eights, the Delta nines. There's a 50 milligram one that I took the other night. How was it? I think I fell asleep before it really kicked in, which is what I wanted. That's why I took it.
Yeah, that's the whole point. I took it to fall asleep. Because I you know, I can't shake that for whatever reason without taking a gummy. I do need a gummy. You know, did you see I've mentioned this. For remember, we were talking about your brother's dog or some shit.
Oh, yeah. They have dog treats now. Oh, I haven't been in there. I need to go in there. Yeah, you need to go in there in Musko.

You need Indeed. I do have one other piece of mail that I wanted to open here. Ooh, mail time?
Mail time? Yeah. This is from Corey. OK. Corey sent me a piece of mail. You have any idea what it is?
No. He said, I have something to send you. Open it when you do. I said, well, we're not doing those this month, but I'll open it next time I go live. And so we're live.
All right. So I'm going to open it. I'm I'm excited to see what it is. I don't know what it is, but it says on it.
Do not bend. I've been listening to Grant this week. Yeah.
On Bill's show. Yeah. Fill it in. Yeah.
OK, we have white. OK. Looks like maybe a picture is in there. Oh, wow, Corey. Holy shit. How old is this? It is an old postcard of the Bradley Center.
Oh, like a legit postcard. That's awesome. Wow.
Corey. This is it. I think I think that needs to go behind you.
Me too. I mean, it is I'm trying to see if there's a date on it. Yeah, I don't I don't think this is like a reprint or anything.
This is a legit old ass postcard when you used to buy postcards. So that is really cool. Corey, thank you for that. Put that right there. Who is behind you? Oh, my niece's fat head. Jesus.
Thank God. We'll just do this. Do that to me. You've got to get her. Yeah, I'm not comfortable with that with all her permission.
Looking creepy. Vincent says, who do I want to be the next United States men's soccer coach? I don't care. You know, everyone's clop if they don't hire him.
Get a guy. It's addition by subtraction. They fired Berhalter. Do you know much about that? They had a guy who sucked. They fired him. They did a consulting firm to hire a new guy. The consulting firm suggested rehiring the guy they fired.
And then they got bounced from Copa America. Good. Good talk.
I don't I soccer is. Sean says my bucket list dream is to go Shay walking. Yeah, we should do that sometime. I think that's the last time I saw you is when we did the whole chair downtown. Maybe you were thinking about the Brewers making it.
Well, you know, we still did that. Chuck says Klop is out. Grant says, what the fuck, Tim? What the fuck? Well, you have a big fat head laying behind you.
Oh, sorry. But it wasn't even like in a place where it was presentable. It was like, if you're going to put a fat head, put it on the wall.
It's not like a stick one up. We had we took it to a game. Do you know who I still have access to a fat head of?
I just don't know what to do with it. Bill, I think it. I got a wicked fat head at the station.
What about. Hey, you got fat heads at the station. Yeah. What did they do with all the ones that were on the wall from the station itself? So the station in 2022 had every morning show. And then really any on hair, on hair, on air host had a fat head that they put on the walls. And those fat heads are still there.
Even for me and Rami. Gary, Gary and Leroy and Tim and. Well, Tim's wasn't even hung up. And I thought about stealing it one night, but I left it there next to the copier. Little did I know about a week later.
We'd be shipped out. I still have a no, I still I still got wickets. MC Lee says, guys, this is the same Brewers team as the last five years. I agree with that.
No difference. I agree with that 100 percent. They have a chance to be different and install some youth and big names with Pat Murphy.
Let's Monasterio and Perkins hit instead of Hoskins and Churrio with two on and no out in the eighth. You agree with that? That statement?
Yes, I do. Maybe they'll win a wild card game, but they're not beaten. I mean, I think there's a pretty big difference. They got a different manager. Sure, they got a different manager, but they're not beaten. Philadelphia and they're not beaten.
L.A. I don't know what's told you that they will, but they're one in five against them. Yeah, I'm not sure. So unless one of those two teams get beat somehow, some magical potion in the wild card round, which neither of them will play, then. I'm not sure, did Murphy, I don't know if he talked yet, did Murphy talk about why he didn't pinch hit? So eighth inning Brewers are eighth inning Brewers are getting no hit. And again, this is game three of the three game set.
They deprove to fifty four and forty schemes is out. Bowers singles. Mitchell gets on base singles, then Monasterio is at the plate. Two on, no out strikes out. Perkins at the plate. Two on one out strikes out. Terrain walks and Contreras strikes out swinging. So you definitely had guys on the bench that were available and you did not pinch hit with them.
That does seem something very council ask. So I'm not sure. I'm not sure what would have happened.
Maybe he just wanted to start his own pre all star game streak. I don't know that he's talked yet. I haven't seen anything from the beat guys. But we'll see what happens there. All right. So you're not at your house, huh? Oh, you're talking to someone.
You got worse at this somehow. Tim is, if you're not on the Dan Cheney YouTube. There is a clock going off right now. What the clock air? Are you directing to the clock? No, I was just making I didn't want that to go. It was so loud.
How much you say this is your parents house. And they still have the old fashioned clock that often does it ring every hour, every 15 minutes. Yeah. Why?
Because that's what that's what they do. Even when you're sleeping. Like my grandparents had that, but it was every hour.
Then I think it turned off at night every 15 minutes that fucking thing rings. Now, don't you don't don't don't unmute that. And I'll let you listen to it.
Murphy's presser just started. OK, somebody let me know what he says. Well, let's take a live.
Let's take it live. I can't do that. OK, so you can't go to your house or what?
Tim lives in the gold zone of the hour. Well, right now, I cannot, because it's meter parking and I don't want to plug a meter. But I will be going back soon to try and get a parking spot because it's free. And since I leave early in the morning, last night was the first time I could not get parking.
Once Saturday, Sunday hits, then I'll be staying at my parents for the week. Not going to be down there during all the shit show, the clown show that's going on down there. So I drove down there last night after work.
Thoughts? Were they putting up fencing or anything? Were they working? Yeah, I drove down six. And they were putting up fencing on six.
Then I went right by Fiserv. Did you see all the Fox News banners and stuff that they plastered up on the walls? Yeah, I wanted to see the banners and the signage. The Bradley Center lot, RIP. There's a lot of satellite trucks there.
So that empty space, which I thought was going to be a concert venue by now. They have started the construction on it. Oh, they have? Yes, they have.
They broke ground maybe two, three weeks ago. Well, what the hell? But obviously they're taking a pause right now. But that's full. The lot's full with satellite trucks.
And then I think one thing I don't understand, maybe you know better. Why are there giant gates between the sidewalk and the street? Are they not going to allow cars? Is it going to be like streetwalks?
In that red zone, in the hard zone. They're not allowing cars. So it will either be streetwalking or OK.
I don't know what. So then why is the sidewalk blocked from the street? Right now, it's not like there's a perimeter from the area to the rest of Milwaukee.
It's like the perimeters that they're building are sidewalk to street. Yeah, I don't. That's I'd have to see it. I haven't seen that yet. Like I think a weird way in now.
So I'll take a look at it before we go. I just what I think is weird about this event and, you know, had the DNC been able to do this four years ago, maybe they would have done the same. I don't know. Maybe they're doing it in Chicago the same way.
I don't know. I just know that it is weird for basically blocks of your city to be rented out and inaccessible to the people that live here. I think that's weird.
You know, like that. Well, that whole zone, you can't you like because you can rent out places like, you know, Summerfest grounds are used for other shit. Even Fiserv Forum, but they're essentially taking over nine, 10 blocks of a city, which is then inaccessible. It's not like, hey, we're having a party here. And so, you know, security threats or whatever. But God, if there's got to be this much security threats, why even have the thing?
Why even do this? Did you see the plane hovering over the city? The helicopter. Yeah. Is that the playground?
It was like right atop the top of the swing. Yeah. Looking for radiation.
Radiation. Yeah, it's definitely different. It's definitely weird. My street's been so my street got blocked off actually last week. So it's been like real just really quiet in the neighborhood. So it's just different.
It's weird. There were people working out one of the nights I did stay there. There are people working on the street like getting because right outside my door is going to be a vehicle checkpoint. Wow.
There are people working there at eleven thirty at night. So if you're if you're not credentialed or anything, you can't just like go and hang. Correct.
If I could not go past Sixth Street, come. What's the deal with Major Goolsbee's? Can you get in there? Yes. They have a special like checkpoint. So I could go to Major Goolsbee's.
Yes. But you have to. There's only one way in and one way out. So you got to get searched. The way that Major Goolsbee's is set up. It's like the demilitarized zone. You know, that zone between North and South Korea. Yes. Conan's been there. Yes. Where it's like you're not in North Korea or South Korea.
You're like you're in like that's kind of what Goolsbee's is like. Correct. Is that a landline? It is. What year are you in? Get it. Answer the phone. No.
It's probably a survey. I love it. Adam says, just wait until the NFL draft takes over Green Bay for the draft.
I love I live within a mile and that'll be an interesting weekend. But like that. That's the thing, too, with the draft. From how we've seen it, you can like walk in. Sure. Yeah. OK. Go through the thing.
And then and then. But you're in. It's like they basically taken a part of the city, which I'm sure I understand all the reasons.
But it is just a weird it's a weird thing. It's not like you're having an event in your city. I cannot go to the deer district. You cannot go to the deer district. Right. You cannot go to drink Wisconsin. You cannot go to the other two places there.
The old fashioned, the new fashioned. And I understand, too, if groups want to rent these places out. Some places are not rented out. That's all that, too. So they are they are depending on these. I'm trying to put it in a nice way. Well, let me tell you this. There is another wrinkle to this is that there are, I believe, 13 surrounding counties that next week will have bar time until four a.m. Oh, yeah.
If they want, if they want the village of Shorewood decided against it. Oh, I bet you're pissed. Well, I want to stop for a drink on my way home. You know, it's part gets up in the middle of the night. It's four thirty. I'm going to go to the bar. What about Pado is Pado get extended because I want to go there. I don't know if they're extending. Oh, that's a good question. I'll ask. But I did as I walk in there after sometimes after the show, I'll go to Pado.
I'll go to Pado. But they're always like, last drink right now. And then you must throw it away in 15 minutes.
Yeah, but I would I would get a drink if I had a little time. I'll find out for you. Yeah, find out. Find out.
Find out for me. I wonder what what state is staying there. You know, is it Georgia or Pado?
The delegates from Georgia. All of a sudden you're gambling and you look over. Oh, there's MTG. Here's your girl. Yeah, I'm I'm still looking for anything that Murphy would have said.
And it doesn't look like he said anything regarding the pinch hitting or lack thereof, so or at least nothing reported yet. Is there money in the budget for a better camera for Tim? Yes, I'm getting a new phone in the next like 24 hours. So you are.
Yes. Where are you going? AT&T. God, I went to Verizon to get a new phone. I was like, I know what I want. I know how to do everything. Hook me up with the phone.
Two hours of asking for upsells. And the guy the guy's like, all right, you should be all right. And then he goes, wait a minute. Do you know? And I'm like, what?
Do you watch Netflix? Oh, God. Yeah. He's like, we got this deal where we are not. And then they had to like print my phone.
The fuck does that mean? So I went in there today. I got to do one thing real quick to my phone, but I went in there today and said, I want my free upgrade. I want my bill lower. And that's all I want. Don't sell me anything else.
And they were good about it. But then they did convince me to do one thing, which I which why my phone is foggy right now, which it won't be. And then I got it. I totally forgot that I have insurance on my phone. So something's got to get fixed and then I'll be able to get it cheaper. Jacob says you guys still go into the stores for your phone upgrades.
Yeah, I do. I know. I mean, you don't have to know what you can just get it mailed to you. How? Just do it all.
You can do it all online. Well, they saw us coming. Oh, yeah.
The reason why when you go into the store, it's like they salivate because they're like, ooh, good. Now we can sell this, this, this, this and this to them. I know that trick. So.
I honestly did not know that. I thought you had to go into the. Oh, no, you can. No, you can do it all. I understand there's an Internet, but I thought you had to go into the store when you needed a new phone. No, you can. You can do it online. You can activate it.
You can send your old one back. We're getting close to 415. No, your timing's off. For the clock. Yeah. No, it's going to hit in the next five minutes. Yeah, I think we're like three minutes away. Your last one hit at three fifty three. What time is it?
Four or three. Your clock's not even right there. No, it's not.
Oh, my God. I was wondering why it was happening at such random hours. Tim is at his parents' house who have a clock that rings every 15 minutes.
And the 15 minutes are not normal. Like they're they're off by eight minutes. This is like bar.
They're on the car. They're on the party time. This is like bar time. Time. The landline ringed rang while you were here. And then to modernize it a little bit, there was just a fat head of his niece chilling behind the couch where you could see the.
The head. Let's hang out next week. You want to come over to my house and just see what's going on? I mean, we can set up chairs and watch.
Where are your parents? I'm talking about downtown. No, I can't get in there.
You can get in the gold zone, which I'm in. Oh, I can. Yeah. Anyone can.
Oh, it's just once once you hit six street, you can't. Yeah, let's let's let's take your fork, Mike, and go interview people. OK. Yeah. Yeah, we can go down the third street. OK, let's let's talk. We can do some walking. Yeah. What if I charged into the zone?
Would they would they neutralize me? Yeah, I think you'd you'd make the news, even if I was doing it for the podcast. Maybe we can meet up with, you know, some national folks, you know?
I mean, everyone's here. Lester Holt and Bart Winkler. Yeah, I got ideas. All right. Can I have Martha McCollum on my podcast? Maybe we can get you Laura Ingram. She's a Packer fan. OK. Or no, that was that. No, I'm thinking of Greta.
Greta Van Buren, Greta Van Buren, the descendant of Martin Van Buren, Greta Van Buren, Greta Van Buren. I'm going to pivot back to Brewers momentarily. Which you seem to have the least interest to talk about. No, I just I to that point where I've seen this story with the Brewers. But do you need the All-Star break as a fan?
I think I need it to regroup. To kind of be like, all right, let's go second half. And yeah, we start off the second half with a bang, too. You know, oh, here we go. There you go. That's it. That's it for 15. You don't get the Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan. That's at the top. Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan Dan. All right.
Back to the Brewers. Why does it go every 15 minutes? That's how it is. Are your parents home? Can you ask them? I don't.
Yeah, it used to be my my grandfather. So their pride is used to it. They probably don't even hear it.
Correct. And if you did ask them, they'd be like, huh? It would shatter their world. Yes, I need the All-Star break. And then to start the second half, they get off with a bang.
You know, you'll get the northern half. So when you lived in La Crosse, were you excited when the Brewers played in Minnesota? Were you like, let's go to a game or no? Do you know what we did once?
What? We there were eight of us that went to a game. I think it was like five guys and three girls. They played in the Metrodome.
Yeah. OK. And we didn't know how to divvy up the hotel rooms. God, you would think girls in one room, guys in the other. For some reason, for some reason, we didn't do that. We put all the cards.
And we did like we just drew cards. But in this group, there were like two relationships that. Ended, but then they dated like we you know, we dated within the friend group.
Yeah. So you weren't guaranteed to be with. It was fucked up. I don't know why we did it. Anyway, then we went to the Metrodome.
We went Saturday and Sunday and one Ron Cohen came in the game. And my buddy goes and he had just got suspended for PDs or he just came back. And my buddy goes, oh, here comes steroid boy and a mom turned around. She had like an eight year old kid and she goes, how dare you in front of my children?
He's like, I just said steroid boy. She goes enough. Great story.
And then the roof caved in. Miller Park Minute. What's going on, guys? What's good with you?
Not a lot. I have taken a long hiatus from the world of content creation and hiatus from spelling minute correctly. I did. I did.
He's joined us as Miller Manute. Whoops. Typing letters. I forgot how the Internet works.
Why is the creation done? Well, so I got in a car accident and. Are you all right?
No, I'm getting better day by day. Well, just make your day. Colorado pizza is more like Miller my nut. That's fantastic. Well, I didn't know that, dude. Sorry.
I'm glad you're not, you know, worse. Yeah, it is was well driving to the old Uber. Oh, really? Did you have a passenger? Yeah. I was I was driving and somebody smacked me right on a broken forest out of there. Did you have a passenger? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So are you like in trouble? No, no. I did. It wasn't my fault.
They ran a stop sign. Oh, geez. Well, that sucks. Yeah.
So, well, look, in Forest Ave and Fond du Lac, isn't there like a tall building you can't like see? You know, I see. That's why I said it. Yeah. But it was on the opposite side. Mm hmm.
Oh, geez. Well, any thoughts on the Brewers? I'm glad Paul Skeans didn't. This is the one time I hate when they pull the pitcher with a no hitter. This is the one time that I will say I am glad that they pulled the pitcher with a no hitter.
Because we'd always be his first no hitter or something. Right. Exactly. We don't have to live about that.
Yes, by the press box. Yeah. But but still like.
And I'll bring this up tonight. But the greater point is, again, I'm not advocating that I wanted the Brewers to get no hit. The greater point is, I don't think even with Paul Skeans on the mound, I don't think there was the fear of a no hitter because you knew he was going to get taken out. Right. True.
True. Yeah, they did. They did emphasize that quite a bit on the broadcast. Yeah. You know, limited pitches. Plus, they want him to go in the All-Star game. So.
Yeah, but you can't. I mean, is that where we're at? Like you don't you don't keep a guy going because you want him to pitch in the All-Star game? Because Eddie gone 120. He's probably they probably do sit him down in the All-Star game. Well, if Manfred has his way, though, I mean, this is this is Manfred's wet dream. Getting Paul Skeans facing. You know, at the top of that AL lineup. It's must watch baseball.
They'll bring some attention to the game. Manfred's wet dream is baseball. Just like disappearing from our conscience.
That's a wet dream. Actually, I said to a buddy earlier today, it's like five inning. We just need five inning games and Manfred would be super happy. Too short, man. I heard someone say with the Brewers once that they that they should only play baseball on the weekends.
Either Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday or Friday. The Brewers said that was a council. No. Yeah, that just I don't know. I really don't know what they and then he stood up. Did you see that he stood up for the Manfred stood up for the ops and the bad calls and shit that we've seen lately. What did he say? Oh, basically that essentially he doesn't feel that the it's a discretionary like he doesn't feel that the umpires are wrong. Well.
They seem to like that, though, they seem to like the. A lot of people are commenting about Livy Dunn. Was she at the game? Yeah, she was. She could have thrown the first pitch, but we should have gone to the game today. Right. I thought about it because we would have seen Paul Skeans. And I was like, you know, I don't know how many people there are in baseball. That's like, OK, you got to go when this guy's in town.
Skeans is one of them. But honestly, Tim, I didn't want to pay for parking and get a ticket. And buy beer and get lunch. I didn't want to spend one hundred bucks. Yeah, no, I get you. Dude, hit me. Hit me in the DMS. I got a ton of free quick trip tickets. I've got like 30 of them. No joke. But are they good seats? No, but you can like upgrade them. Because I want to I'm going to try to go, you know, the day where your kids walk around. Yeah. I'm gonna try to go to that game.
But tickets are still I don't know. Can I just sit five rows from home plate for twenty dollars? Is that so much to ask? Maybe I'll just take him to a milkman game and be like, oh, Brewers moved.
I don't know what to tell you. Devin Williams is playing up to up in Appleton tonight. Yeah, Devin Williams.
And Saturday. You know, I don't care what they do at the trade deadline, it's going to kind of be like we're getting an all star closer back. Stop. Don't don't don't say that. Come on. I hate that. That line is so plain.
What do you mean? It's a good line. Like like next year, are they going to say they signed an ace? Because they Brandon Woodruff would be potentially healthy. We went we went off season acquisition. We got Brandon Woodruff back.
Yeah, I think it'll be good. Coming up this weekend, it's Freddie Peralta. Are we no longer worried about him or are we still worried about him? Not worried.
Not worried. Dallas Keichel on Saturday. And then Colin Ray on Sunday, who the streets are saying maybe our best pitcher.
That might be true. That could be Colin Ray. He's definitely reliable. So who's all hurt right now? Who would like is hurt that we think is coming back at some point? DL Hall. Oh, yeah. Jared Caning.
Caning him. Oh, Devin. Joe Ross is still on this team. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Joe Ross. I forgot about that one.
Joey Ortiz. He's hurt. Yeah.
These are part monthly. The fuck? I didn't realize he was hurt. Get back into it. Do you feel like somebody said earlier, MC Lee, do you feel like this Brewers team is that much different from teams of the past? Do I like some sort of do we have like a different sense of like, where is the, you know, where is the pose? Are we thinking postseason? Are we just like, oh, this is fun. But like, how is this year different? Is it?
I think it is. I think, well, I think I feel more confident. I feel that we're more of a lock than we've been in the past.
Yeah, but a lot to do what? For the NL Central. We're going to take the NL Central.
I mean, we have been taking the NL Central, but offensively, I have a lot more confidence in this crew. And I think that's, unfortunately, we couldn't have kept Burns and done this, you know, we couldn't kept Woody healthy and done this. And it's a shame that it didn't click at the right time. But I think the window is still here.
Yeah. Where did Tim go? Did the clock ring again? Tim, we want to hear the clock. Sorry, I was looking through Twitter.
My phone's at 3%. Okay, we can wrap up. It's good to see you. No, you don't have to wrap up. I'm just saying, I'll probably. Tim, you should always wrap up. Thank you. Yeah, good practice. Every time I come home with you, it gets interesting.
You always come on at the back end when we're like already 10 minutes longer than we should have been going. Right, right. I'm well aware. I don't get that. The BART notifications are not fully there for some reason on my phone.
I tried to set up notifications for you. What, on YouTube? Yeah, like it's weird.
It's wonky with them. Maybe YouTube's like, hey, this guy used to do it five days a week. Now he just comes on twice a week.
I don't even come on that. Pete says the notifications must be on Tim's parents' time. Yeah, Tim's parents' time. Paul Skeens is still pitching a no-hitter in this game, in the sixth inning. Which clock? What is more behind, Vincent and Anaheim or Tim's parents' clock?
Vincent and Anaheim still. He's called into the show, the infinity show. He's called in. Ram's been calling in a lot more. That's been fun. What time are you on?
Nine to one. Yeah, I'm trying to get back in on KFIZ. They had me for a little bit. Trying to get back in there.
Little Fodolac representation? Well, I mean, that's where I cut my teeth, dog. Right. I'm reading obituaries at 1220 every weekday. That's the kind of stuff I used to do. I miss.
I miss that stuff. You just want more time with freems. I do.
You're just trying to suck up all that freems time. I do. It was so good to see him the other day. We went to Pado for lunch. What was it last? No, that was like two weeks ago. You guys did a pod together, right?
Yeah, but we went to Pado like a month ago. What'd I have, Tim? Did you eat at the Sportsbook or somewhere?
Yeah, I did. And it was a huge burger. And it was like a huge, like the burgers at that Pado Sportsbook. If this is the size of a burger. Their burgers are this big. They're huge. That's what you want to eat?
Yeah. You can, you can eat. All right, well, I'm done. It was great seeing both of you.
Always a pleasure. Hey, be good. I'm sorry that you got hurt. That's all right.
I'll recover. You want to talk about how Aaron Rodgers is hinting that Devontae is going to play with him again, or should I end this? Actually, we're about a minute away from clock. We are.
We're not even like. I want to hear clock. Whatever happened to Aaron Rodgers presidential, vice presidential hopes? I don't know.
Maybe, maybe he'll still somehow get on a ticket. Who knows what's going on? Clock, clock, clock, clock, clock, clock. Clock block me. Is this like an old clock with the big chimes? Yeah, it's like a grandfather's clock, but your grandfather's grandfather had the clock. Yeah.
This is the oldest living thing in the Shay family lineage. Is that it? No, not yet. What was that? Here we go.
I'm glad I stayed for that. That's only half. We're halfway through. So it's four twenty one. Your clock thinks it's four thirty. Correct. So it's nine minutes ahead.
Yeah, I thought it was eight. So why do they do that? I don't I don't know. I gotta assume it's never been changed.
Well, no, it has. Do your parents know the real time? Yes. Was your grandfather like in some business where he needed to be early? No. Yes.
The radio business. This broken clock isn't even right two times a day. Colorado Pete's. We got to get him on here next time. All right. Good to see you, Miller. My nut. Have a good one, guys.
Tim, always a pleasure to see you. Yes. Let's do RNC live next week outside Sixth Street, outside right by my apartment.
Maybe do some walking. Maybe. Maybe it's been a while. Although I do want to like I want to see it. That's the thing. Like this thing is here. I know. I want to see it.
I want to be I want to be I want to experience a thing that is here. I mean, depending what happens, we may never have one of these again. So. All right. Wow. Get your knees out of there. That was a good one by me, wasn't it? That was some sharp political commentary.
I'm just saying that this show is trying to avoid. All right, buddy. All right.
Good to see you. Take it easy. Go Brewers after after.
Hey, just remember this. After the All-Star break. Brewers.
And then we play you know who for the last time this year. We got the Cubs right out of the gate. Twins and Cubs.
Twins for two. That's Saturday, Sunday. No Friday game. So the Brewers actually have an extra day. Oh, wow.
And then the Cubs down in Wrigley. All right. Well, good to talk to you, buddy. Thanks for sort of taking a nap when you go to bed soon. I'm going to go home, see if I can get a parking spot. All right.
Well, Godspeed at Packers train camp to next week. Oh, flirting with going to the shareholders meeting. Oh, you are an owner. Yes, you should. You should do that. Do the do the work of the people, Bart.
Flirting with getting up there. All right. All right. TBD. Thanks for stopping into the Winkler verse.
That's Tim Shea. Mr. Positive's here. He says Tigers all the way. Mr. Positive, talk to you tonight. It is the Bart Winkler themed podcast into the Winkler verse. There it is. Goodbye and go box.
