Young swings misses strike 300 mile an hour fastball, a 1-2-3-6 with a couple of Ks, and we go to the seventh inning. Yep, the swings grounds it to the left side. Solano in the bread basket has got it. Rota first in time, seven no-hit innings for Dillon Cease. One and one now the pitch. Swung on, bounced up the middle, right to Kim behind second base. Rota first is in time, eight no-hit innings for Dillon Cease. And of course, he would finish it off. Welcome into Gwen and Chris, everybody. Kind of a special Thursday get together here on San Diego's number one Sports Talk station, 97-3, the fan as the Padres Dillon Cease throws the second no-hit or in franchise history today. Finishing off to Washington Nationals, 3-0 this afternoon, Cease rolling through a 114 pitch performance, struck out nine, walked three, and talked his way into the second no-hit or in Padres history. Mike Shilt made it sound good after the game, made it sound like he was kind of thinking of keeping him in, but nobody felt that. I mean, Mike Shilt basically came over and gave him a congratulatory handshake after the seventh inning and said, "Nice job." You know, and Dillon Cease had to talk him into staying in the game. What is there to talk about? I don't get that, and you know, I don't want to go Old Man on my lawn thing, but I'm tired of this no-hit guys coming out in seven innings, skiing a couple of weeks ago, or last week came out after seven innings and 99 pitches, no-hit baseball, let these guys go get their no-hitters. And for those of you who think Dillon Cease's career has been ruined because he had to throw 114 pitches, keep in mind a couple of things. Number one, 113 was his previous high. Number two, this is the twelfth time this year that he's thrown more than 100 pitches in a game. He'll be just fine, and the Padres are fine for now, a five-game win streak, and a sweep of the Nationals. Ben Higgins tweeted this out earlier, but I was thinking it. He gets credit because he tweeted it out. The Padres' six-nothing series win over the Nationals this year has got to go down in baseball history as one of the most dramatic six-game sweeps ever. I mean, you look at the games that the Padres won in this series. The Profar walk-off bases-loaded double are single because he cut off short and ran to the Nationals dug out. And then the following night with the Machado home run and the Profar Grand Slam and then the Higashyoka two-home run game, and it's all finished off today in DC. I think they're calling it what? Washington Dillon Cease. Yes, that's what DC stands for. Also, the Nats were DCs today. Yeah, I thought I'd let you give that stupid line. I gave the first one, I let you have the second one. Wait, wait, wait, stupid. Chris Ello here, that's Matt Scrabe. Tony Gwen Jr. is obviously, he's on a bus right now from Washington, DC to Baltimore where the Padres play tomorrow, but we did catch up with Tony. We'll get some of his thoughts after he and Jesse called a no-hitter today. We'll hear that in about 15, 20 minutes. We actually have a really good show lined up. We weren't planning on, you know, a no-hit day. RJ Anderson from MLB. CBS Sports. I'm sorry, CBS Sports. Thank you. He's an MLB writer for CBS Sports. He is the trade deadline guy and as all of this is going on today, we are stepping ever closer to the baseball trade deadline. It's coming up on Tuesday. This is Thursday. There's only four days left, five, right, before the trade deadline is up. So we'll get the very latest from him and what the Padres may or may not be able to do before the trade deadline. That's coming up in the two o'clock hour also a little bit later on today. We are going to catch up with the head football coach at San Diego State. You Aztec fan stick around Sean Lewis will join us today right around four o'clock. The Aztecs are just a month and a week away from their season opener. So starting to get so excited for some college football around here. Sean Lewis will be on the show a little bit later on. As Sammy Levitt said, we will replay for you those who missed it. Sammy's post game interview with Dylan Sees from Washington, D.C., he did call into the post game show. We'll play that for you a little bit later on and then we'll play highlights throughout and try to put this whole thing into perspective. The Padres now have exactly 0.006 of the no hitters in baseball history. There's been 306 thrown. The Padres now have two. At long last, Joe Musgrove has to share the mantle now with Dylan Sees. And wouldn't you know it? Guess who's been residing in Joe Musgrove's guest house since April. You know this thing. I didn't know this and I'm assuming Dylan Sees, but yeah, this is a Joe Musgrove thing. He let Adam Fraser stay at his house when Adam Fraser was traded over here. That didn't work out so well. This is where. This has worked out a whole lot better said to quipped Joe Musgrove after the game. The rent is going to go up after this performance, but yeah, Joe Musgrove in fact, Joe was there in the dugout and according to some tweets that I saw from AJ Casaville, Joe Musgrove walked over to Mike Schilt near the end of the seventh inning and said, you know, I think we should keep him in. His stuff looks pretty good out there. So, you know, Mike Schilt, I'm positive, I don't know how he spun it in the postgame, but I'm positive that he was ready to take him out of that game at the end of the seventh inning. He had 94 pitches at that point and maybe because of the rain delay at the beginning of the game, Schilt thought, you know, that was enough for Dylan Sees. But this guy, the last, I don't know if it's not fair to compare Dylan Sees to Nolan Ryan yet. Nolan Ryan, think of how exciting that was today. The no hitter and everything that went into it and the pop fly that bounced out of Bogart's glove right into Merrill's glove and the play that Bogart's made at second base and bobbled the ball and was able to throw out Keebert Ruiz, probably the only hitter in the Washington Nationals lineup he could have thrown out on that play because he's a catcher and he's really slow. Anybody else would have beat that out by the time Bogart's was able to build the ball. So, I mean, you know, so much has to go into it, talk and Mike Schilt into staying into the game, not throwing too many pitches. So he gets a no hitter. Think of this. Nolan Ryan did this seven times, seven times in his career, he threw a no hitter. So yeah, it's a little early to compare, but the only thing I, the only mild comparison I would make is that Dylan Sees, when he goes out to the mound, it is at least in the back of my mind. I don't know if it's in the back of everybody out there's mine that today is a day he could throw a no hitter. This guy almost had one a couple of years ago, eight and two thirds at Minnesota and are against Minnesota when he was with the White Sox. Sorry, I finally got the cameras up if you want to watch. Oh, good. Thank you. I've been looking really good today. I appreciate you finally getting that up there. You're looking at me like, are you listening and I'm like trying to listen to you. I'm over there talking to you and you're looking in another direction. But here's the thing with Dylan Sees. I feel like he almost has a chance to throw a no hitter every time out. And here's why I say that. Go back to April 22nd at Colorado at Colorado, even seven innings, one hit. How about May 8th at Chicago, Wrigley Field? Seven innings, one hit. How about June 26th at home against this Washington Nationals team? Seven innings, one hit. And then July 13th Atlanta, six innings, one hit and his last out in Cleveland, in Cleveland, seven innings, one hit. This is the sixth time already this year that this guy has pitched six or seven innings or more and allowed one or no hits. So he's been buzzing all around it all season long. Now, not only did he have the no hitter bid that a rise broke up in the white side, that is kind of ironic, certainly. Very ironic. Yeah. In fact, I honestly believe the only way the Nationals were going to get a hit today is if they could have worked a late deal to acquire a rise in the seventh or eighth inning and bring him up to bat. Because none of those national guys were going to get a hit off him today. You know, they could have batted all day long. But this is the sixth time that he's allowed one or no hits in the start this year. So it really shouldn't be all that shocking. And what's more? Go ahead. Sorry. No, go ahead. I was going to say what's more shocking to me is that there have been these outings where he's just not consistent at all, where it stretches about. He's like maybe two starts in a row where he's not consistent. But for the most part, he has been this guy all year. Well, no, he hasn't. And I'm not trying to disagree with you. But along with the six starts that he's allowed one hit or less, he's allowed five runs in a game and six innings, five runs in a game and four innings, seven runs in a game and three and two thirds innings, six runs in a game and three and two thirds innings. These had some starts where you look at it and you're like, how did that happen? Because you honestly feel like he's, you know, no hitter waiting to happen every time out. And today, he finally got it. So it's awesome. It's exciting. I mentioned this to Tony and you'll hear my visit with Tony in here a little bit. But as I said, it's the 306th no hitter in Major League history. So they've happened before. Yes. Right? Yeah. But for some reason, they're just exciting every time, especially for the team that you and especially when it's the team you're rooting for. Let's so rare it is. Let's pause real quick for station identification. KW F and KW F and HD one, San Diego, this is Joe Musgrove, the desert himself, one to four to three. And that's all for the giant Padres play here in San Diego's number one, spoil station, seven, three, the fan and on a sea sports station. Dylan sees pictures of no hitter today as the Padres, uh, shut out the Washington nationals, three nothing, sees faced one batter over the minimum, along with his no hit effort. He walked Lane Thomas twice early in the ball game. Once he was thrown out, stealing, once he was erased on a double play, uh, there was a third walk later in the game to CJ Abrams. He was turned out, he was the only left on base all day. He got the second base on a ground ball, but, uh, neither winker nor Yepes could bring him in. So they had two at bats with a runner and second base. This was, you know, very dominating. I, I gotta give Musgrove the nod if you want to tell me who's no hitter was better. There's no such thing. They're both amazing. They're all their own. No hitters. But, but Musgrove didn't allow a walk in his no hitter. It was one hit batter was the only thing that kept him from a perfect game. Yeah. Uh, so he faced one over the minimum as well. Musgrove did in his no hitter. Musgrove through 112 pitches, sees through 114, uh, Musgrove, I think struck out 10, sees struck out nine, very similar in that regard, but, uh, yeah, it's awesome. And, uh, you know, I've said this all season long and I don't know how to quantify it other than to say, look at the results, but there's a little magic to this season. Of course there has been pro far has provided most of it. I hate to tell you, pro far has been in the middle of a lot of the magic, uh, gosh, yokas had the magic run that he had, barrels had the magic run that he's had. And today it was a ceases turn to be the magician and pick up the second no hitter in club history. His stretch of three starts just before the all start break at home against Atlanta. And then after the all start breaking Cleveland and then today in those three games, this is ridiculous, he's pitched 22 innings. He's allowed two hits. Obviously no runs. He's walked seven. He struck out 30 in those three games. The Braves, the guardians, excuse me, and the nationals are a combined two for 65 against Dylan C's. How does the guy ever give up a run? It's really it is amazing that he has a run because when he's really good, you can tell he's untouchable. Well, he is. I mean, look, the guy has a season ERA of three point five Oh, yep. Not like it's one point five Oh, yeah, like, I mean, they've scored off him throughout the season, but he didn't look like he could ever score off him today. The way he pitched and give Jackson Merrill a ton of credit. How many times do guys back up plays basically for no reason at all? They don't need to be there. Sometimes. Yeah, they don't need to be there. These are major league players. They make good throws. They catch the ball. You don't normally have to back up. But guess what? Yes, you do. And Jackson Merrill raced in from centerfield and Bogart's went out on that pop up by yet as he turned, I think he turned the wrong way, which was it got him into a little trouble. Yeah, he did the. Uh oh, yeah. And then he had to scramble and that ball pops out of his glove and it would have fallen to the turf. There's no way Bogart's would have been able to re get recapture it. And Merrill's right there to grab and you know, then the play Bogart's made later on in the game against Ruiz. So it was a memorable day for the Padres. Most importantly, you know, it's five straight wins on this road trip. And let me tell you something, when this road trip started, if I had told you, guaranteed you that they'd go five and four, you would have said, yes, you said, I'll take it. Yeah. Well, guess what? They can lose all three games in Baltimore and still go five and four. So let's get a little greedy now. Hey, the Orioles have struggled in Miami. They've struggled since the break. Yeah, they did win today. They blew a lead, they blew a lead, but they won an extra inning. So the Orioles did win today. But you know, this is, I think this is a season that's going to wind up in the playoffs. I just have, I've had that feeling all year. It's hard to have that feeling when they're in one of their down slumps and you know one of those is probably right around the corner again listening. Yeah, I know you're not, but you've said that every time maybe you should listen because every time I say it, you say, I'm not listening and then they lose four in a row anyway. I'm six days away from being officially able to check the standings again. So, well, you know, you're going to like what you see right now. Padres are right in the mix now, the Mets, the Cardinals, everybody's right there. Was Michael Kings, did he go into the seventh on Sunday because that would mean we've had no hit watches and two games in the last like five days? I think Michael King made it to the through six innings through six. I think he made it through six. The Sam Levitt brought this up on the post game show, but in their five game win streak, the Padres have given up four runs and 14 hits. That's five games. That's phenomenal. That's less than three hits a game on average. And to think that on that Friday after a week ago, when they won't do that, I was like oh, here we go again. They got swamped by the Guardian seven nothing in the first game after the all-star break. Of course, they gave it. Six of those runs were in the eighth inning, but they beat the Guardians two to one, four nothing, 12, three, three nothing over the Nationals, you know, and Waldron, you didn't talk about this game last night, but he gives up a quick three and then he locks in. I mean, his knuckle ball wasn't knuckling in the first inning. Lane Thomas ripped a double winker drove him in and then yet as homered, three knuckle balls. Every one of those was a knuckle ball that just didn't really do a lot of knuckling. But you know what? Waldron fought right back and he's pretty good at that because I've done a couple other times this year where he's gotten in trouble early in a game and you think maybe he's headed for an early exit, but then he locks it down and he goes six. Well, Padres are locking things down right now. I mean, that's four runs allowed during a five game win streak. Three of the games have been shutouts and, you know, it's all good for the San Diego Padres as they head to Baltimore and you know, when the Padres get to the postseason, and as I said, I think they're going to be there by hook or by crook, they're going to be there. They're going to have to send a little playoff share money to the Nationals because I mean, this dominance of them this year has been memorable. Let me ask you this, Chris, you were talking about on Tuesday before the game about how you want to see a player get plunked. There were no fireworks in this series at all, but they did end up going on to win every game against them this season. Does that, is that the ultimate like we got you? I would say so. Yeah. Yeah, I would say so. Were you unhappy that they didn't try to take a plunk or I wasn't really thinking about it, you know? You were on Tuesday before the game. You practically wanted to get everyone in the room. I thought about it through Kiebert Ruiz's first at bat on Tuesday and then I was like, all right, they're not doing anything and, you know, just keep playing great baseball. Yeah. And the Padres are doing that. All right. So three nothing was the final today. C gets the second no hitter in Padres history. We are underway. Here's the plan. Tony Gwen Jr, our visit with him after the no hit call is coming up next. The bottom of the hour, RJ Anderson to talk baseball and the trade deadline for a clock. We'll get, we'll have some other features in along the way. We'll do a Chris versus the fans. Scrabie will tell me a time for that because it's normally at four o'clock. Yes. Today we've got Sean Lewis from San Diego State, their football coach coming on at four o'clock. So but we're going to be here. Scrabie and I till five 30. We're originally supposed to be here till five. Yes. But we're extending. We are. And then Scrabie is going to extend even beyond that till six 30 for six 30. All right. So that's what we've got coming up for you. Gwen and Chris underway. Happy Padres. No hitter day. Dylan sees does it on 97 three the fan.

Chris Ello, Tony Gwen Jr. in Washington, D.C. where Dylan Sees through that no hitter today. Padres are now a busing to Baltimore where they'll start a series tomorrow against the Orioles. Matt Scrabies alongside here in the Odyssey Palace studios. The victory three nothing over the nationals. They got the three runs in kind of a weird way. Extremely weird way. Right. On top of the first inning, uh, Patrick Corbin started for the nationals walk two, gave up a hit in there, bases were loaded two outs and Hassan Kim came up and then it started pouring. Well, it actually started pouring maybe a little before that he walked. I think it was Bogart's before Kim came up and you could tell he couldn't get a grip on the ball and then he threw the first pitch to Kim and that was a ball and he looked turned around and you're like, what's going on here and then it was mad because they started the game. They were, I think he was mad because they didn't stop it and he was trying to throw pitches in the rain. And then when they did stop it, I think he was mad that they thought they didn't let him finish the inning. So he was mad, I think on both sides, but after an hour and 16 minute delay, Hassan Kim came up. Matt Scravey tweeted out that all three runners should have to stand on their bases during the rain delay. No, I said, you are such a weird guy. I said in my weird brain, I just imagine them having to stay in place. No, they couldn't leave the bases or they could get tagged out. Yeah. That's the rules of the game, Chris. The rules of the game. You, you, yeah, you have to stay on base even during a rain to no, they really didn't get it because I was walking lucky on my phone and said, Hey, game started. And so I'm like, all right, I'll check it when I get back and then I get back and it's in a rain delay. Yeah, it started bases loaded to us. So after an hour and 16 minutes, Corbin went back out, Kim came up and the count was one and oh and give Kim a lot of credit because he fouled off some tough pitches there with a three, two count. And then, you know, with the runners going and now was the key to the whole play was that Croninworth was at first base, got a running start on the three, two pitch. Kim really hit the ball off the end of the bat. He didn't hit it hard, but James Wood, the rookie, you know, that the Padres so stupidly gave up to the nationals, a dove for a ball. He had no chance of getting to. And by diving, he let the ball get past him, Croninworth was going to be fine stopping a third base, but as soon as he saw Wood dive and missed the ball, that allowed Jake to come all the way around and turned into a three run double for Hassan Kim. But it's to me, it's a misplay by, you know, James Wood trying to make something happen when it wasn't there. But those were the only three runs in the game. Boddery's really didn't do much the rest of the way, didn't need to, as Dylan sees walk three struck out nine in his 114 pitch gem today. Most important of all, with the victory, the Padres slide back into a wild card position. They came into the game percentage points behind the Cardinals for the third and final wild card spot. They now own that spot, a half game ahead of St. Louis in the National League. And the other part is, I mean, look, they're tied with the Mets. The Padres are, they're now only a game and a half behind the Braves. Yeah, the Braves have really come back to the pack. So which we expected it is all wide open right now in the National League. The National League West, I think, is going to get very interesting here in the last two months because you have the Giants now with a couple good starts from Blake Snell. Then he got Robbie Ray last night doing his no hit thing through, I think, six or seven five innings. Oh, five innings. Not as impressive as Dylan C's, not as impressive, but it was his first start of the season. And that is impressive. So Robbie Ray was helping the Giants win that one last night in L.A. Clayton Kershaw, by the way, is back on the mound for the Dodgers today and they're leading the Giants three to two in the top of the fifth inning. But yeah, after the game, we caught up with Tony before he got on the bus to go to Baltimore, wanted to get my partner's thoughts on today's history making performance. And of course, we couldn't let the day go by without getting some thoughts from my partner, Tony Gwyn, Jr., about the no hitter thrown by Dylan C's today. And first thing I thought of Tony was you got to be there this time. You and Jesse had to call the last no hitter sitting in an empty press box at Petco Park. Yeah, that was certainly a little bit different setting this time, not looking at it through a TV screen, being there, alive and in person, and it was pretty special. I mean, Dylan had it going today as he has the last couple of starts. I had a little better luck. I mean, I think the first couple of last two starts, they got hit pretty early. So it kind of threw cold water on the whole idea of a no hitter, but that was not the case today. Some luck terrific play by Jackson, a stay with it played by Bogey and the rest as they say his history. You know, Tony, you've been around the game, you know, as long as anyone. And this is the 306th no hitter in baseball history, but I don't know what it is. It's always exciting, even if it happens like in a Toronto Detroit game, people get excited about tuning in and watching a no hitter. When it happens for the team, you follow it's extra special and you know, I just, I don't know what it is and no hitter gets everybody going. Yeah, I mean, it's, it's, it's, it's a pretty exciting 24 hours, right? I mean, we'll get to celebrate this. The weird thing about baseball is that there's another game in the bar and you're forced to kind of turn the page. These guys will have to do the same thing, especially going into a place like Baltimore. You know, those guys were on the verge of getting swept. I don't know if that game ended up going their way or not today. So you know, they're going to have their hands full, but for this 24 hour period, all that's going to be talked about is Dylan season is Padre franchise and rightfully so. I mean, he was, he was really brilliant today and it wasn't brilliant in the way that he normally is where he's, you know, can double digit guys. I know he had nine, but this was a much more efficient day of work for Dylan C. Were you surprised they left them in after the seventh inning? No, I wasn't. I mean, he had, he had 80, he had 86 pitches at the time. You know, it was, he was efficient enough to where, and he's one of the guys that goes longer, you know, 113, I think is his max. When you get into that area, I think coaches feel comfortable and he was the right guy at the right time. Tony is in the DC with the Padres on their way to Baltimore, but checking in with us after the Dylan C snow hitter today and Tony, just tell us a little bit about your dealings with Dylan C's, I don't know how often you've spent with him, but we had him on our show. It just seems like a really quiet, reserved guy. He didn't get too excited. It didn't seem too excited in his post game interviews, but maybe it takes a calm heartbeat to finish off one of these things. I mean, I haven't spent a ton of time with him. I mean, Dylan is kind of off with the pictures and kind of in that mode a lot of time. So I don't get to spend a lot of time with him, but I do get to watch them pitch every fifth day and when he's got that kind of stuff, I mean, that is in the realm of possibilities every time he steps on the mountain and he has that kind of stuff. To have a no hitter in general, you need some luck. He got that luck today, Merrill being in the right place at the right time, bogey, stand with that play, Ruiz, not really running the hardest out of the box. Those are the kind of luck things you need to go your way in when you got a little luck and you're as good as Dylan sees, this type of magic can happen. And so it did for Dylan sees today becomes the first pitcher in the modern era to throw three consecutive starts with six or more innings and one or fewer hits allowed. First guy ever that includes Nolan Ryan, that includes Johnny Vandermeer, whose name always comes up at times like this. Do you know why his name always comes up at times like this? I had the question hit me, but I was like, I'm not going down the road. You're not going to trust me, but I guess because he one of these situations, Johnny Vandermeer is the only pitcher ever to throw back to back. No hitters. I did kind of sort of know that. Yeah, most people are kind of his name pops up, especially if cease can go for five innings in his next start, then you start thinking about it. No one's ever, never one's ever had the back-to-back no hitters except for Vandermeer. He did it in 1938. I was there at both games. So that the height of athletic ability, 1938, one of the things about Vandermeer's one of the two no hitters, I think was the first night game ever played. It like Ebbets feel like I don't think anybody can see the ball like there was some extenuating circumstances to it, but yeah, Johnny Vandermeer use the guy through back-to-back no hitters. It's the only guy to do it. Cecil get his opportunity sometime next week when the Padres come home. Yes. Now I would imagine, I haven't looked. I guess I should since, you know, we are the Padres flagship, I should know this stuff, but yeah, Dodgers are coming in next week, cease a shake. Let's see Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Sunday, Sunday. Got him in Wednesday against Tyler Glass now. So that'll be a fun one. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no. Go ahead. I was going to say they already did that this year, but that was Michael King in Tyler Glass now. Yeah, it'll be. Actually, the Padres don't know who's going to start tomorrow. You want to pitch in Baltimore? Oh, actually, we do know. We do know. We do know. We're going to do this to me. This is one of the things I've been passed along. Let me pull it back up. It's Adam Major. It is. It is Adam Major. They're giving him another shot. Here we go. Well, it's not major. We'll start tomorrow for the Padres. Michael King and Randy Vasquez are scheduled to start over the weekend. That's fair enough. No, that's true. Now, King is going Saturday, Vasquez, Sunday. The fact that Adam Major starting tomorrow night in Baltimore is not going to engender a lot of confidence out there, I must say, but I guess they think he's the best option they have. Yeah, they're not going to just throw him out there because he's there. Well, that's what we've been saying, you know, but they keep putting him out there and it's not working for him. So maybe tomorrow he can get it together. But in the meantime, the Padres celebrate Dylan Cece's no hitter. We take a break. Three nothing over Washington today. When we return, RJ Anderson from CBS Sports joins us. The baseball trade deadline is less than five days away. What is the latest? We'll find out next on 97 three, the fan. I just want to say that my guy, Sammy Leavitt and I, me and Sam, were the only two guys on planet earth who have done a Padres post game show on the radio following a no hitter. That's right, Sam. You and I were the only ones. Sam Leavitt tied me today in post game. No hitters. Yeah, I was on the, I was on the assignment the night of Joe Musgrove's no hitter in 2021. Today Sam Leavitt took us through a post game show following Dylan Cece his no hitter today in Washington as the Padres shut down the Nationals three nothing and win their fifth in a row and Dylan Cece will celebrate his no hitter a little bit more as we go along here this afternoon. Right now we are really excited to be joined by RJ Anderson from CBS Sports, great baseball writer and trade deadline. That doesn't slow down because the Padres pitched a no hitter today still coming up on Tuesday. RJ, how are you today? What's new? I'm doing well. How about you? Well, you know, everyone's pretty excited here, obviously today after the exploits of Mr. Cece and, you know, it's interesting as it stands right now, RJ, there's still really only been two major trades in baseball this season, right? The Padres got Louisa rise and the Padres got Dylan Cece. So yeah, I mean, you know, it's interesting because everybody always waits till the trade deadline. AJ Preller didn't wait and he's gotten, you know, he's got pretty good, pretty good results out of those two deals so far. Wouldn't you say? Yeah, and remember that there were rumors trying to get Derek Ocean earlier in the summer as well. No, obviously that didn't happen, but it would have been his third deal. And, you know, I think there's something to being the first mover, we've seen it with the Atlanta Braves and Alex Panther, Paul, it's time and time again where he's always seemingly the first person to make a transaction during the offseason and, you know, if you're confident in your evaluation and you're confident in your negotiating abilities and confident in your team, you know, sometimes it's worthwhile being everyone else in the punch. RJ, is this, I mean, we're five days away from the trade deadline history. Does this tell us this is pretty normal that right now everybody's, everything's still a rumor. Everybody's still kind of positioning or when would you say the trigger normally starts getting pulled? Yeah. I think this year is going to be later than normal just because of the hit of the wild card races. I mean, block that shot. I think there's only 18 in all of baseball that were more than five games away from the playoff box and when you have that kind of congestion, you know, it's going to be a seller's market and that means the sellers have every incentive to wait until we're in those final 72 hours before they really get serious about making a deal, you know, unless someone really overplays their hand and over pays. So I don't think this is going to, you know, stack up the whole circle average. I think it's kind of unprecedented the year in a sense or at least a rare year and I think we're probably still hours away from things really getting going. Talking to RJ Anderson here of CBS Sports and the trade deadline, you already mentioned Garrett Crochet and that's who I was going to ask about because I know he's been linked to the Padres for quite some time. We've been watching how they've been handling his innings and I'm not sure how teams are going to use them. So my question to you is if they go after Garrett Crochet, the Padres, would you think it was more for a this year move or was it, is it going to be for the team control that his contract has, what kind of picture is the team that trades for Garrett Crochet going to get? Yeah. I mean, that's a great question and it has nothing to do with his count level. It has everything to do with his health. Remember, you know, the concern about him when they moved him to the rotation this spring was the fact that, you know, he's barely coached even as a reliever. He's just barely pitched because he's been in your timing again. So I think if you're acquiring Crochet, normally I would say, you know, it's about this year plus next few years. But in this case, I think he may have to put more on this year because you don't know what comes next. You know, I don't know how his body's going to hold up. I don't have access to his medicals. You know, that's something the teams will have, make him make that determination. But I do think that maybe his years of control turn out to be a little bit of an illusion. And, you know, that's often the case with pitchers. So I don't think that should be shocking to anyone, but he might be an extreme case. RJ, of course, we're all looking at the Padres and their angle here, but I just curious as we look around baseball, there's two teams that jump out at me that might be the most. I don't want to say desperate, but the most in need of making a move right now. One is the Red Sox who have a slump tier a little bit and falling behind the Royals in the wild card chase. But the other for sure seems to be the Braves, all of the injuries that they've had. Now the year they won the World Series, they traded for a whole new outfield right at the trade deadline and they end up winning in the whole championship. Is there a shot Atlantic and pull off something like this again? How desperate are the Braves at this point to save their fading playoff hopes? Yeah. I mean, those are great questions because when you look at that roster, it doesn't seem like there are even any easy answers right now between injuries under performance. I mean, not also in some of these ever players who, you know, we know are all start out over players and just having miserable years, 100 plus games as a season. So I do think anthropology is going to make moves. I think it would make sense, frankly, for him to shop at the top of the market too, if you can, because, you know, I bought him a crochet. I bought him a chair at school board, bought him a Luis Robert Jr. You know, you could slot them into that lineup and have it make sense for the rest of this season and even having forward, especially with the uncertainty about what the future holds for Max Freed and Charlie Morton in Atlanta. So yeah, I think the Braves have to do something. I think it would be a shame if they left this opportunity in this season, all by the way, so I'd even though they're going with off the couldn't yet and doing it without the suppliers the rest of the way. Talking RJ Anderson, CBS Sports here and the Padres, I personally don't think they need to make some huge big splash with a trade. They just need to get a guy that can come in and do the job and fill a knee. They need that they have. Do you think that they are going to be a team that we're all talking about or they're just going to kind of ride under the radar a little bit and make the trades here and there? Yeah. So I mean, they, Jake Proler, you never want to bet against them by the way. Right? Smart answer RJ, smart answer. I'm a little hesitant to say, oh, yeah, they're going to fly underneath the radar. But I guess my concern is not whether there is a desire to go out there and make something happen at the top of the market, but whether there's actually a pathway there because their firm system is, and if we did stay, you know, a lot of their top prospects are either really young or they're having down years or a combination thereof and I think that's going to limit his ability to go out there and get a scoop or get a crochet or whomever you want to talk about at the very top of the market. And I said, I'm sure he's going to be something, you know, the A.J. Proler, like, hey, you know, that's one of those generally I just, you count on doing something over the final 72 hours, even if it's not necessarily, you know, his biggest move from one of the biggest moves you've made at deadline. One of the names that I'm intrigued by RJ for the Padres is the left-hander Tyler Anderson, who's now with the angels and has pitched in this division with the Dodgers and the Rockies and has made two all-star teams in the last three years. Are you hearing anything on the angels' willingness to perhaps move him and what kind of situation would the Padres be getting if they could acquire somebody like him? Yeah, I think if you're the angels, you have to definitely listen on him. I knew I was told, gosh, I guess it was six to eight weeks ago now that the angels were starting to listen to offers on players and, you know, that included relievers, that included Jose Soriano, that presumably included Anderson, although I didn't hear him by name. The thing is, you know, he has a really shiny ERA and you're right, he's got a draft record of being a solid, big league starter, but the thing is, he's kind of having a weird season because if you look at his strikeout rate and you look at his walk rate and you look at some of those underlying metrics, it's not really as pretty as you would think based on the ERA. So I don't know exactly what to make of that, you know, it's still a contact manager, and again, the prospector says he's going to continue to be a solid, big league-starting pitcher, but I think that there's actually more risk for this profile than you would think. And I don't know that he would be atop of my target list if I'm in San Diego, just because I wonder if you can find a little bit more of a short thing, even if they don't necessarily have, you know, a ton of ups on it or whatever. But yeah, I have a lot of questions, and I'm not quite sure how that's going to unfold for him over the rest of the year and heading forward. Talking about Roger Anderson about major league baseball trades, the trade deadline coming up next week. He works for CBS Sports, and I was going to ask you about one player, because I've seen this name pop up more and more. But now that Sandra Bogart is back, Donovan Solano doesn't really have a consistent role with the team, and he's been good, and he continues to be good, and it's been floated around here in town. Could they trade Donovan Solano to kind of take the pressure off of so many infielders? Do you think that's something that they could do, or is Donovan Solano not really a guy you want to trade, or wouldn't get a strong offer? Yeah, I'm not going to think that he's not someone who's going to bring back enough to justify moving him. You know, nothing against Donovan Solano. Yeah. I thought he's been on a big leap roster opening day, you know, like I like that, and Solano for what he is. But we're talking about, you know, a right-handed hitter who's not really field defensively, and you know, you're probably not going to put him on the left side of the infield too often. Well, at least some of these clubs, though, I think that he probably has limited trade value, and I would have a hard time with seeing any ever team giving up real value for him at this point. How about Hassan Kim? What is his name? That sounds like, I know you're going to, I'm going to just kind of generally jump on your thing. Hassan Kim, 225 batting average, you know, some occasional power, gold glove defense, but also a free agent at the end of the year. To me, it seems like there's just no way somebody's going to offer you a, you know, a decent return for somebody who's a rental hitting 225. But then again, the Orioles just lost their shortstop, Mateo. So anyway, the question is, is there any chance Hassan Kim draws any interest? I think he was all interest. I think he would be surprised because, you know, the reality of it is if you can play shortstop as well as Hassan Kim can, you're not going to want for opportunities, right? Like someone's always going to want you on their line up, and, you know, if you look at some of his parking justice stats, it's not as bad as that batting average looks. You know, it's an ugly, unflattering batting average, but if you look at some of the ever, you know, parking justice metrics, he's not as bad offensively as you would think. So I think that he's actually, I think he would be in demand if they were to make him available, but I would have a tough time actually for seeing the Padres trading him at this point. I could be wrong about that. I think if that was going to happen, it would have happened over the winter. I would agree with that. RJ Anderson, CBS Sports here with us. Real quick. Last question. I read this this morning. Blake Snell is pitching well now with the Giants, but his contract is not very giant-friendly, and some people are trying to move him too is there's a chance that he would be on the move. I mean, I think not because, you know, the Giants are just not getting the full strength that they're going to get, and I think they probably envision themselves, you know, being in that NL wildcard race down the end and Snell, yeah, he struggled. I wonder how much that, you know, truncated spring training hurt him, but I think they envision him being big part of that down the run. So down the road, he gave me, so I would be surprised if he moves as well. Well, I'll tell you one thing. You know, just browsing the CBS Sports website. And if you're into this trade deadline, get over there and look at some of this RJ Anderson articles. I could keep you on all day. RJ asking about all the things you've written about and all the information you've put out there for, you know, fans to read. So we appreciate you taking a little time out to visit with us here in San Diego, and look forward to catching up to you again down the road and invite everybody to check out some RJ Anderson stuff on CBS Sports. Thanks again. Yeah, thank you for having me. You bet you sir. RJ Anderson there from CBS Sports, and today he wrote a lot about Luis Robert. It's junior. Oh, and the likelihood of somebody acquiring him. Guess who he has is the number one possibility. Yeah, I just knew it. It's always the Dodgers, isn't it? I just knew it. It's really funny. He writes here, people get tired of seeing the Dodgers always ranked atop these lists. We get it, but unfortunately, what can we do? They have the prospects and they have the movie, though. I guess they do. I'm sure they do too. Sure they do too. I mean, James Altman has been a disaster this year in center field. I think he just got recalled because of injury to Chris Taylor, but they've been, they've had a hole. Yeah, right in the middle of their outfield and the Dodgers, you know, they're going to spend the money and get somebody and I would think that Luis Robert probably will be a Dodger before it's all said and done. You know, we're a while their money is tied up on the bench, Chris, Yoshinobi Yamamoto. Not getting much out of him. No, not getting much out of him. And then you got all the other guys, but that $325 million contract is expensive at this point. I'm certainly not here to pick on the Asian players. I'm not either. Well, what I'm saying is you got Yamamoto there. That has not worked out. Oh, I see. I don't believe Matsuyu has worked out for the kind of money that he's been given by the Padres. You know, I think, you know, Hassan Kim's been okay. You know, everybody knows he's not my all time favorite. He did drive in all three runs today. So let's give Hassan a day off, you know, in the criticism department, but, you know, there's a little more risk with those guys than I think teams are willing to, you know, talk about. I mean, because you're right, you give Yamamoto what $325 million. And this guy, now he's been hurt, but even when he wasn't hurt, he wasn't dominating anyone. He was getting there. He was getting by, but he wasn't great. And he's a three time MVP in the Japanese leagues three years in a row. So that's their best player clearly. Like he's, you know, the show, hey, Otani of the Japanese league. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Otani's in another world of course, but Yamamoto has not been able to come over here and dominate now. Maybe that'll change. Maybe in September, he'll start mowing him down when he gets back to health. But you know, just, you know, I don't I understand why you pay pitching big money, starting pitching big money. But I don't understand what I know why, but it would be really hard for me to sign a pitcher because they're, it seems like pitchers take, you know, get injured. They, especially high in this day, throwing pitchers in this day and age, they certainly get it. And it's always tricep tendinitis. No, it isn't. Sometimes they just blow out their arm all the way. Yeah. Well, that yeah. Yes. Okay. Good point, Chris. Good point. You can put together an unbelievable team of pitchers that aren't pitching. Oh, yeah. I mean, Spencer Striders right at the top of that list, and he was lost like first couple weeks of the season, right? About a weekend. A week. Okay. I think he made one start. Maybe two. Might have got two. I mean, I feel bad for those guys because they don't want to get injured, but I'm feeling bad for the people who owned him in fantasy baseball, like me. I'm not feeling bad for those. Definitely don't feel bad for those people. I know you know, if he was on my team, I would be commiserating with everyone. Dylan C's pitch to no hitter today in case you were wondering. Padres shut out the Nationals three nothing as history was made in the District of Columbia. More on that, more going in Chris ahead.

I just want to say that my guys Sammy Leboud and I, me and Sam, were the only two guys on planet Earth who have done a Padres post game show on the radio following a no hitter. That's right, Sam. You and I were the only ones. Sam Levitt tied me today in post game no hitters. Yeah, I was on the, I was on the assignment the night at Joe Musgroves, no hitter in 2021. Today, Sam Levitt took us through a post game show following Dylan Sees, his no hitter today in Washington as the Padres shut down the nationals three nothing and win their fifth in a row and Dylan Sees will celebrate his no hitter a little bit more as we go along here this afternoon. But right now we are really excited to be joined by RJ Anderson from CBS Sports, great baseball writer and trade deadline. You know, that doesn't slow down because the Padres pitched a no hitter today. Still coming up on Tuesday. RJ, how are you today? What's new? I'm doing well. How about it?

Does this tell us this is pretty normal that right now everybody's, everything's still a rumor, everybody's still kind of positioning or when, when would you say the, the trigger normally starts getting pulled? Yeah. And I think this year is going to be later than normal, just because of the, the wild card races. I mean, block that shot, I think there's only eight teams at all baseball that were more than five games away from a playoff box. And when you have that kind of congestion, you know, it's going to be a seller's market. And that means the sellers have every incentive to wait until we're in those final 72 hours before they really get serious about making a deal, you know, unless someone really overplays their hand and over pays.

You know, I don't know how his body's going to hold up. I don't have access to his medicals. You know, that's something the teams will have, make him make my determination. And I do think that maybe his years of control turn out to be a little bit of an illusion and, you know, that's often the case with pitchers. So I don't think that should be shocking to anyone, but he might be an extreme case. RJ, of course, we're all looking at the Padres and their angle here, but I just curious as we look around baseball, there's two teams that jump out at me that might be the most.

I mean, not all some of these ever players who, you know, we know are all start out over players and just having miserable years, 100 plus games and diseases. So I do think anthropologists going to make moves. I think it would make sense, frankly, for him, the shop at the top of the market, too, if he can, because, you know, I bought him a crochet. I bought him a chair at school board, I bought him a Luis Robert Junior. You know, you could swap him into that wide up and have it make sense for the rest of this season and even having Ford, especially with the uncertainty about what the future holds for Max Freed and Charlie Morton in Atlanta. So yeah, I think the Braves have to do something. I think it would be a shame if they left this opportunity in this season, all by the way, so I do know they're going to go off the couldn't yet and doing it off that you started the way. Talking RJ Anderson, CBS Sports here and the Padres, I personally don't think they need to make some huge big splash with a trade. They just need to get a guy that can come in and do the job and fill a need that they have. Do you think that they are going to be a team that we're all talking about or they're just going to kind of ride under the radar a little bit and make the trades here and there? Yeah, so I mean, for me, Jake Proler, you never want to bet against them. Funny way to make a splash, right? So I'm a little heads of the smart answer RJ, smart answer. I'm a little hesitant to say, oh, yeah, they're going to fly underneath the radar. But I guess my concern is not whether there is a desire to go out there and mix up and happen at the top of the market, whether there's actually a pathway there because their farm system is in a depleted state, you know, a lot of their talk prospects are either really young or they're having down years or a combination thereof, and I think that's going to limit his ability to go out there and get a scoop or get a crochet or whomever you want to talk about at the very top of the market, that's, I'm sure he's going to be something. You know, they, Jake Proler are like, hey, you know, that's just one of those generally answers you count on doing something over the final 72 hours, even if it's not necessarily his biggest move from one of the biggest moves he's made at deadline. One of the names that I'm intrigued by RJ for the Padres is the left hander Tyler Anderson who's now with the Angels and has pitched in this division with the Dodgers and the Rockies and has made two all star teams in the last three years. Are you hearing anything on the Angels willingness to perhaps move him and what kind of situation would the Padres be getting if they could acquire somebody like him? Yeah, I think if you're the Angels, you have to definitely listen on him. I knew, I know I was told, gosh, I guess it was six to eight weeks ago now that the Angels were starting to listen to offers on players and, you know, that included relievers that include Jose Soriano, that presumably included Anderson, although I didn't hear him by name. The thing is, and you know, he has a really shiny ERA and you're right, and he's got a draft record of being a solid, big league starter, but the thing is, he's kind of having a weird season because if you look at his strikeout rate and you look at his walk rate and you look at those underlying metrics, it's not really as pretty as you would think based on the ERA. So I don't know exactly what to make of that. You know, it's still a contact manager and again, the traffickers says he's going to continue to be a solid, big league starter, but I think that there's actually more risk with this profile than you would think. And I don't know that he would be atop of my target list upon the San Diego just because I wonder if you can find a little bit more of a short thing, even if they don't necessarily have, you know, a ton of upside or whatever. But yeah, I have a lot of questions that I understand I'm not quite sure how that's going to unfold for him over the rest of the year and heading forward. Talking about RJ Anderson about major league baseball trades, the trade deadline coming up next week, he works for CBS Sports. And I was going to ask you about a, I'm going to ask you about one player because I've seen this name pop up more and more. But now that Sandra Bogart is back, Donovan Solano doesn't really have a consistent role with the team and he's been good and he continues to be good and it's been floated around here in town. Could they trade Donovan Solano to kind of take the pressure off of so many infielders? Do you think that's something that they could do or is Donovan Solano not really a guy you want to trade or, or wouldn't get a strong offer? Yeah, I'm inclined to think that he's not someone who's going to bring back enough to justify moving him. You know, nothing against Donovan Solano, you know, I thought he's been on a big league roster opening day, you know, like, I don't like Donovan Solano for what he is, but we're talking about, you know, a right-handed hitter who's not really field defensively and, you know, you're probably not going to put him on the left side of the infield too often, at least some of these clubs. So I think that he probably has limited trade value and I would have a hard time with seeing any ever team giving up real value for him at this point. How about Hassan Kim? What is his name? That sounds like, I know you're going to, I'm going to just kind of generally jump on your thing. Hassan Kim, 225 batting average, you know, some occasional power, gold glove defense, but also a free agent at the end of the year. To me it seems like there's just no way somebody's going to offer you, you know, a decent return for somebody who's a rental hitting 225. But then again, the Orioles just lost their shortstop, Mateo. So anyway, the question is, is there any chance Hassan Kim draws any interest? I think he was all interest. I think he would be surprised because, you know, the reality of it is if you can play shortstop as well and talk about Kim can, you're not going to want for opportunities, right? Like someone's always going to want you on their lineup and, you know, if you look at some of his parking justice stats, it's not as bad as that batting average looks. I don't know if it's an ugly sunflower batting average, but if you look at some of the ever, you know, parking justice method, he's not as bad offensively as you would think. So I think that he's actually, I think he would be in demand if they were to make him available, but I would have a tough time actually for seeing the Padres trading him at this point. I could be wrong about that. I think if that was going to happen, it would have happened over the winter. All right, I would agree with that. RJ Anderson, CBS Sports here with us. Real quick. Last question. I read this this morning. Blake Snell is pitching well now with the Giants, but his contract is not very giant-friendly. And some people are trying to move him too is there's a chance that he would be on the move. I mean, I think not because, you know, the Giants are just not getting the full strength or, of course, the full strength that they're going to get. And I think they're probably envisioning themselves, you know, being in the NL wildcard rates down the end and snow. Yeah, he struggled. I wonder how much that, you know, truncated spring training hurt him, but I think they envision him being big part of that down the run. So down the road, he would be surprised if he moved as well. Well, I'll tell you one thing. You know, just browsing the CBS Sports website. And if you're into this trade deadline, get over there and look at some of these RJ Anderson articles. I could keep you on all day. RJ asking about all the things you've written about and all the information you've put out there for, you know, fans to read. So we appreciate you taking a little time out to visit with us here in San Diego and look forward to catching up to you again down the road and invite everybody to check out some RJ Anderson stuff on CBS Sports. Thanks again. Yeah. Thank you for having me. You bet, sir. RJ Anderson there from CBS Sports. And today he wrote a lot about Luis Robert, Jr., and the likelihood of somebody acquiring him guess who he has is the number one possibility. Yeah. I just knew it. It's always the Dodgers, isn't it? I just knew it. It's really funny. He writes here. People get tired of seeing the Dodgers always ranked atop these lists. We get it. But unfortunately, what can we do? They have the prospects and they have the movie though. I guess I'm sure they do. I'm sure they do. I'm sure they do too. I mean, James Altman has been a disaster this year in center field. I think he just got recalled because of the injury to Chris Taylor. But they've been, they've had a hole right in the middle of their outfield and the Dodgers, you know they're going to spend the money and get somebody. And I would think that Luis Robert probably will be a Dodger before all of a sudden. You know where a lot of their money is tied up on the bench, Chris? The Yoshinobi Yamamoto. Not getting much out of him. No. Not getting much out of him. And then you got all the other guys, but that $325 million contract is expensive at this point. I'm certainly not here to pick on the Asian players. I'm not either. Well, what I'm saying is you got Yamamoto there. That has not worked out. Oh, I see. I don't believe Matsui has worked out for the kind of money that he's been given by the Padres. You know, I think, you know, Hassan Kim's been okay. You know, everybody knows he's not my all-time favorite. He did drive in all three runs today. So let's give Hassan a day off, you know, in the criticism department. But, you know, there's a little more risk with those guys than I think teams are willing to, you know, talk about. I mean, because you're right. You give Yamamoto, what, $325 million. And this guy now, he's been hurt, but even when he wasn't hurt, he wasn't dominating anyone. He was getting there. He was getting by, but he wasn't great. And he's a three-time MVP in the Japanese leagues three years in a row. So that's their best player, clearly. Like he's, you know, the Shohei Otani of the Japanese league, Otani's in another world of course. But Yamamoto has not been able to come over here and dominate now. Maybe that'll change. Maybe in September, he'll start mowing him down when he gets back to health. But you know, just, you know, I don't know. I understand why you pay pitching big money, starting pitching big money, but I don't understand what I know why, but it would be really hard for me to sign a pitcher because they're, it seems like pitchers take, you know, get injured. They, especially high in this day, throwing pitchers in this day and age, they certainly get it. And it's always tricep tendinitis. No it isn't. Sometimes they just blow out their arm all together. Cool that. Yeah, one. Yes. Okay. Good point, Chris. Good point. And you can put together an unbelievable team of pitchers that aren't pitching. Oh, yeah. An unbelievable team. Yes, you can. I mean, Spencer Striders right at the top of that list and he was lost like first couple of weeks of the season, right? About a weekend. A week. I think he made one start, maybe two might have got two. I mean, I feel bad for those guys because they don't want to get injured, but I'm feeling bad for the people who owned him in fantasy baseball, like me. I'm not feeling bad for those definitely don't feel bad for those people. I know you know, if he was on my team, I would be commiserating with everyone. Dylan C's pitch to no hitter today in case you were wondering. Padre shut out the Nationals three nothing as history was made in the district of Columbia. More on that, more going in Chris ahead.
