Brian BarrettHOST
And James Click was already gone from the Astros, but you get the idea.
Brian BarrettHOST
Brandon Gomes from the Dodgers, no. John Daniels, no. Derek Felvey, no.
Brian BarrettHOST
All these guys passed on even interviewing for the job.
Brian BarrettHOST
So it was clearly difficult to get the guy last time.
Fabian ArdayaHOST
That's one of those things where it sort of repeats what your eyes are telling you.
Fabian ArdayaHOST
I know obviously Brandon Gomes, uh, said a couple weeks ago that there wasn't really a te- tie between the health and the offensive production.
Fabian ArdayaHOST
I think obviously the eye test, obviously hear it from the hitting coach, uh, kind of says the opposite.
Fabian ArdayaHOST
Like, he clearly, a lot of one hand finishes, wasn't really trusting the arm.
Ryan FinkelsteinHOST
I'd be very curious on James Click.
Ryan FinkelsteinHOST
And the last one that is, I think, the most pie in the sky and would potentially be the type of hire where you'd say, "That looks like who takes over if Stearns eventually gets let go," is Brandon Gomes, who is the executive VP and general manager of the Dodgers.
Ryan FinkelsteinHOST
And he was in the running to be the Mets GM when Billy Eppler got hired.
Ryan FinkelsteinHOST
That was back in 2021 before the 2022 season.
Ryan FinkelsteinHOST
Again, because the Mets were considering him to be the GM.
Ryan FinkelsteinHOST
So there has been dialogue in the past.
Ryan FinkelsteinHOST
Now, how does this hit the upward mobility clause? I don't know if, if you could work that, you could swing that, but I also don't know when Brandon Gomes' contract comes up.
Ryan FinkelsteinHOST
And I just thought it's an interesting name to mention because of the fact that for one, you'd be poaching someone from the Dodgers and you get some intel there.
David SamsonHOST
John Daniels, he's done it before.
David SamsonHOST
Brandon Gomes, Mark, Mike Chernoff, who we've been talking about on this show for seven years.
David SamsonHOST
He's up in Cleveland.
David SamsonHOST
His father is the radio executive.
Nelson EspinalPANELIST
So I think that, you know, even if Ohtani's a bit compromised I'm, I'm willing t- to ride it out.
Nelson EspinalPANELIST
Um, and even if he doesn't play in the regular season, uh, I think it was general manager Brandon Gomes already mentioned that it is a possibility that Ohtani doesn't play in the regular season and just goes straight into the postseason.
Nelson EspinalPANELIST
So I think that, that might be the outcome that I'm looking forward to the most, yeah.
Ava BrandHOST
But do you think that's enough for him to get back at the plate? You know, there's a...
TJ MathewsonHOST
So you mentioned the Dodgers.
TJ MathewsonHOST
Uh, Brandon Gomes is their GM.
Lyle GoldsteinHOST
Mm-hmm.
TJ MathewsonHOST
He was a very popular name.
Lyle GoldsteinHOST
But, a- again, we're gonna need to see it to believe it, and then there'll be a much, much more elongated conversation on potential candidates.
Lyle GoldsteinHOST
But yeah, those are good ones to throw out.
Lyle GoldsteinHOST
Brandon Gomes for sure, James Click for sure, Thad Levine from the Brewers for sure, John Daniels, who's now high up with the Rays for sure.
Lyle GoldsteinHOST
You wouldn't be able to poach Eric Neander away, because he's the president of baseball ops for the Rays, so that would be a lateral move that I would be surprised that he wouldn't make.
Jon FrischHOST
Now of the 40 candidates that they named in the survey, 16 received multiple votes.
Jon FrischHOST
Dodgers general manager Brandon Gomes got five votes.
Jon FrischHOST
That was second most among candidates.
Jon FrischHOST
Five execs were tied with four votes.
Travis RodgersHOST
That's gonna be very near the top of the list.
Travis RodgersHOST
So Dave Roberts, Andrew Friedman, Brandon Gomes, they've gotta figure out how they're gonna massage that spot in that rotation.
Travis RodgersHOST
Hopefully, best case scenario, Blake Snell comes back.
Travis RodgersHOST
If this were a knee, if this were a low back thing or whatever some of these other injuries may show up, you'd be like, "Okay, they, they got on top of it early." The fact that it's that left groin, the fact that it's constantly been something that he's had to deal with does not fill me with a great deal of, of positivity as we get closer and closer.
Jack HarrisHOST
He was not here today.
Jack HarrisHOST
Andrew Friedman and Brandon Gomes did arrive today.
Jack HarrisHOST
Although
Dylan HernandezHOST
I don't think Friedman is tall enough to be able to dump water on top of you, right?
Jerry Hairston Jr.HOST
And that excitement helps kind of rejuvenate you a little bit.
Jerry Hairston Jr.HOST
But also, you know, Andrew Freeman and Brandon Gomes, they have to kind of take take into account.
Jerry Hairston Jr.HOST
OK, now, do we do we bring him up? But will it stunt his development? Can he handle the big leagues? That's the thing.
Jerry Hairston Jr.HOST
One thing is you bring a guy up that's talented, but you're going to have your ups and downs.
