Steve AdamsGUEST
Maybe they're fine with just having, like, a, a part-time DH in that.
Steve AdamsGUEST
Like, they've s- they've signed Joc Pederson for that role in the past to have, like, a, you know, a lefty swinging DH who can beat up righties.
Steve AdamsGUEST
I think Joc is, Joc at his best is a, a better hitter against right-handed pitching than Jesus Sanchez at his best against right-handed pitching.
Steve AdamsGUEST
Um, so I, I don't know if they really want to, to take that on.
Steve AdamsGUEST
Like, defensively limited corner outfielder with platoon issues is not-
Darragh McDonaldHOST
Right
Steve AdamsGUEST
... one that's gonna be highly sought after unless you are, like, Joc Pederson has been at times in the past so good against right-handed pitching, like, you know, top 20, top 15 bat in the game against righties, that he can, you know, he's gotten at least the one multi-year deal, you know, the, the, the $38 million in, in free agency from the Rangers.
Steve AdamsGUEST
Jesus Sanchez is not gonna get that.
Greg PetersonHOST
These guys in between about a two sixty to two seventy.
Greg PetersonHOST
Not a lot of power outside of Jake Burger and Joc Pederson, who have both been able to give you twenty-three plus home runs.
Greg PetersonHOST
But I do think that for this Rangers team, they get to Jake Bennett, a guy that's giving up a lot of contact.
Greg PetersonHOST
So I like the over.
Evan GrantGUEST
And for lack of a better term, I guess they've gotta be more of a double sitting club, and I think they've got a double sitting type guy back in their lineup with Josh.
Erik KratzHOST
Evan, can Corey Seager carry this team? That, I mean, Joc Pederson really has been the guy.
Erik KratzHOST
Wyatt Langford's gotten m- much better since he's come back off the aisle the last couple months.
Erik KratzHOST
I mean, he's, he's-
Craig GoldsteinHOST
Also, also, just, I would shout out to ...
Craig GoldsteinHOST
I, I don't think we ever say his name, basically, but Joc Pederson just-
Jeffrey PaternostroHOST
Yeah
Craig GoldsteinHOST
... an, a year where it looked like he might be truly dead last year.
Patrick DubuqueHOST
Yeah.
Craig GoldsteinHOST
And he's just being Joc Pederson again.
Patrick DubuqueHOST
Well, and, and I think the lesson here is if you can't explain why, and we know what he ...
Patrick DubuqueHOST
Like, I remember writing about Joc Pederson and looking at him going, "I don't know why he's bad."
Jeff WilsonHOST
Um, all right, other news.
Jeff WilsonHOST
We should get updates today on Joc Pederson, Cal Quantrill, Josh Jung, Peyton Gray, and Cole Win.
Jeff WilsonHOST
Um, you know, deGrom, we got our answer on him.
Jeff WilsonHOST
He's starting today with the, the groin pains, 90s sitcom.
Jeff WilsonHOST
Uh, Josh Jung said he's gonna play every day, even with his calf barking.
Jeff WilsonHOST
Um, we'll see about that.
Jeff WilsonHOST
Uh, and then unless the subsequent, uh, examination showed a fracture, uh, Pederson will have a few more days, uh, to mend with the back-to-back lefties, uh, that the Red Sox are offering.
Jeff WilsonHOST
And if Skip Schumacher, uh, wants a lefty batter to pinch hit for a righty platoon player, which he will, expect to see Alejandro Osuna popping off the bench, uh, and, and, uh, Evan Carter too.
JoeyHOST
Something crazy.
JoeyHOST
And, um, also Joc Pederson got hurt too.
JoeyHOST
He got hit by, in the hand.
JoeyHOST
I'm not sure if there was an update on that, but it's the same hand that he fractured in 2025.
Clint PasillasHOST
Again, I love it, but it might be a kick the can down the road, do, do, take some reps in the off-season.
Clint PasillasHOST
Because we've also seen in the past, I, uh, immediately my brain went to Joc Pederson trying to play the position, and Joc is, is, you know, like, just an awkward k- uh, fielder-
Jeff SniderHOST
Non-athlete is the phrase you're looking for
Clint PasillasHOST
... lo- that, that is the best way of putting it, you know? Um, I don't know how, how good JDP's hands are when it comes to the glove and, and, you know, just the simplicity.
Justin HughesHOST
Uh, he tore it up in double A since coming back from the injury given the time lost this year.
Justin HughesHOST
And then the question will be when will he be up? And I was listening to the BA podcast, Baseball America podcast, and Jeff, Jeff G- Jeff was, um, talking about him, and he was saying that Joc Pederson's a free agent.
Justin HughesHOST
And the idea of moving Corey Seager, Seager over to play in DH does seem appealing, um, if I'm the Rangers there.
Justin HughesHOST
And I think they'd get him up early, maybe even opening day like we saw m- with McGonigal.
Andrea LamontHOST
So Jacob deGrom is back at it.
Andrea LamontHOST
Joc Pederson hit his 26th homer.
Andrea LamontHOST
Wow.
Andrea LamontHOST
Come on, I shoulda bet, I shoulda bet Boston Paul that Joc Pederson would hit 26 homers instead of, uh, what's his name? That jerk in Detroit that's supposed to be hitting 26 homers.
Andrea LamontHOST
I don't know what, I can't think of his name.
Andrea LamontHOST
Torkelson.
Andrea LamontHOST
Okay, there you go.
Andrea LamontHOST
I shoulda bet Joc Pederson, right? Anyway, this, we'll talk about Julio.
Eric LindquistHOST
It's just that he's in the eight hole and, uh, well, we have Cal Raleigh in center park.
Eric LindquistHOST
Joc Pederson, always scary.
Eric LindquistHOST
Always scary with the pinch hit risk.
Eric LindquistHOST
It is what it is.
Eric LindquistHOST
We got Cortes for Walton Horton, another one.
Eric LindquistHOST
No, no, no, I, I kinda like that shout-out.
Eric LindquistHOST
Joc Pederson, and, uh, cheerit chit chit Cheerios coming in then that way for 1122.
Eric LindquistHOST
Ian Wright, 8502 for Grichuk.
