Geoff Blum

My bad.

Um, they weren't throwing Jeff Blum or, you know, [laughs] Mark Buehrle out there for the 13th inning in, in game three.

[laughs]

And I believe when Ozzie did leave for Miami the last three games of 2011-

So I have to go back to this.

Will Thrasher, I don't know if you saw this, when I was talking about how 2005 these kids would have died or I made that comment, he said, could you imagine the outrage over Jeff Blum being the trade deadline acquisition? Could you imagine 2005 following the trade deadline on X and all they do is add Jeff Blum? Oh, my God.

like and i feel like with griffey was 08 and i think like the soriano rumors were like 2006 i think but i feel like there might have been like soriano rumors or something even in 05 and then it was like yeah we don't want to upset the apple cart like we'll just add this like bench piece you know but like yeah it was wild that's that's awesome like thinking about like if that was you know a thing on twitter basically

People would have lost their minds had it been like a Jeff Blum acquisition being the loan thing.

People would have...

There would have been outright anarchy on White Sox.

God, I hope so.

Like, if you imagine Brenton Doyle hits a big game-winning homer in the World Series, yes, he would be a king here forever.

Listen, I never do this, but I w- I actually went to the stadium last night.

I walked over and, uh, talked to, like, Jeff Blum and Todd Kalas and, and, and some of the reporters.

You know, Chandler Rome and some of the reporters over there, and I'm like, "How's it going?" And they're like, "We got nine more.

We, we, we got nine more games."

I don't believe it is anymore.

It's a Jeff Blum 14th inning home run.

I believe Burley came in to save that game.

That's awesome.

He started managing on a feeling.

He started looking in the guy's eyes and saying, Jeff Blum looks hitterish.

It's time to send him up there in this big moment.

You know, he had a couple of guys that were clutch.

And I look at what the production – and if you do this, you go back to most deadlines and see the true production from guys acquired, and it's very little.

There's very – sometimes the Jeff Blum move is the best move.

Yes.

Right? Yes.

Hey, 27 batters, 27 outs, I don't care if it's lucky or not, that's pretty freaking cool.

Well, you know, it's funny, um, during the, during the Astros game tonight, I was, I was listening to Jeff Blum talk about Hayden Wesneski pitching, you know, he just came back from Tommy John.

And he said, he said, "TK, I don't know if you noticed, but even his misses are in the strike zone, but they're not where the hitter can get to them." So sometimes if your misses are even off, but they are off in an area where those bats aren't, and it, it takes a lot because anything can happen.

Well-

Matt Vaskersian is what he is.

Jeff Blum was fine.

Todd Zeal was fine.

I like CeCe.

So Blum, Blummer, he's on the.

Jeff Blum.

He's on the broadcast with somebody from the Mets.

And they put the, it's the national team.

For those that don't know that,

when the Astros went to the World Series for their first time in 2005, it was against the White Sox.

And there was a 15-inning game at Minute Maid Park for us to lose when Jeff Blum hit a freaking home run and won the game for the Sox.

We were swept in that series, but every game we lost by just one run, pretty much.
