Jack FritzHOST
But if you can go Sato, he's your right fielder, and then go Randy or Seiya, and they're your left fielder, then you have the, a real right-handed bat.
Jack FritzHOST
That's how you can remake an offense in a year, and you're not putting the pressure on Aidan Miller to be Kevin McGonigle as the only chance that you have a chance to compete.
Jack FritzHOST
Because if you can do that, I mean, James, the top of your lineup all of a sudden becomes Trey at one, I'm sorry.
James SeltzerHOST
Oh, God.
Greg KaplanHOST
I already know this question.
Greg KaplanHOST
He's asking about Kevin McGonigle.
Ryan MeadHOST
Yeah.
Greg KaplanHOST
Yeah.
Greg KaplanHOST
... understand that you are also one of the dumbest Mets fans in the world if you find yourself having this question.
Greg KaplanHOST
You don't get to do this.
Greg KaplanHOST
Kevin McGonigle in the 2023 draft went 37th overall.
Greg KaplanHOST
Every team-
Mark S.HOST
Um, you know, I mean, that was J.J. Weatherholt.
Mark S.HOST
That was Kevin McGonigle.
Mark S.HOST
Um, I don't know if...
Mark S.HOST
I wonder if Fukumoto, uh, counts a- and, um, um, any of the other imports count in that technically as well.
CJ BaumgartnerHOST
Younger player, uh, has time to grow in his position.
CJ BaumgartnerHOST
But you also could look, uh, if you're the, uh, Detroit Tigers had Kevin McGonigle playing some third base as well.
CJ BaumgartnerHOST
Uh, so again, if he plays a lot there, although again, yeah, it, it remains to be seen.
CJ BaumgartnerHOST
Now, we're talking years down the line, position changes, things like that.
B FosterHOST
I think that, you know, Max Clark provided that.
B FosterHOST
Um, Kevin McGonigle provided that at times.
B FosterHOST
Um, but he's a guy that you can put the, that you can put in the lineup, um, add some pop.
B FosterHOST
Um, now he's gonna ha- now he's gonna have to improve in high leverage situations.
Scott LauberHOST
Not when you consider that six infielders, all of whom were drafted out of high school in the same 2023 class as Aidan Miller, made their Major League debuts this season.
Scott LauberHOST
A.J. Ewing of the Mets, Bryce Eldridge of the Giants, Colt Emerson of the Mariners, Cooper Pratt of the Brewers, George Lombard Jr. of the Yankees, and of course, Kevin McGonigle of the Tigers.
Scott LauberHOST
Almost all made an immediate impact, with McGonigle poised to bring the AL Rookie of the Year home to Delaware County next month.
Scott LauberHOST
Miller almost certainly would have joined that list if not for the pain in his lower back, the recurrence of an issue that bothered him at the end of last season but subsided with rest in the winter.
Sean O'ConnorHOST
Second base, we did draft this person, AJ Ewing.
Sean O'ConnorHOST
Third base, Kevin McGonigle.
Sean O'ConnorHOST
He plays both that and shortstop.
Uncle JohnnyHOST
Mm-hmm.
Uncle JohnnyHOST
Correct.
Sean O'ConnorHOST
But, but these...
Sean O'ConnorHOST
Kevin McGonigle was five picks after a- another shortstop they picked, Colin Houck, whoever the fuck that is.
Uncle JohnnyHOST
[laughs]
Martin SekulskiGUEST
Oh, I'm just kidding.
Martin SekulskiGUEST
No, it's Kevin – I actually have Kevin – I actually have Connor Griffin higher than Kevin McGonigle, but I'm actually going to take McGonigle for the purposes of this.
Martin SekulskiGUEST
I know that he didn't have the best season, quote-unquote, of all the rookies, but he's definitely going to be the American League Rookie of the Year, or at least should be.
Martin SekulskiGUEST
And I think that's, you know, well-deserved in my opinion.
Martin SekulskiGUEST
I think the floor with McGonigle is obviously very high.
Martin SekulskiGUEST
I think there's still more ceiling that's coming.
Martin SekulskiGUEST
But age 21 season, he hit 18 homers, had 12 steals, 123 WRC+, almost as many walks as strikeouts, which is very encouraging, obviously.
Martin SekulskiGUEST
And the power did trend up, too, in the second half.
Hyatt LazearHOST
Uh, Travis Bazan has his first flagship card is in this as well.
Hyatt LazearHOST
Um, McGonigle, uh, Wetherholt will be in this as well.
Hyatt LazearHOST
And, um, but that's not the big thing about this set.
Hyatt LazearHOST
This set has some of my very, very favorite insert sets, and that includes, um, the...
Hyatt LazearHOST
It's absolutely my favorite one.
Hyatt LazearHOST
Uh, this year's list is Ro- there's 25 cards.
Hyatt LazearHOST
You got Roman Anthony Cagg, Chase Burns, Okamoto, Griffin, Wetherholt, McGonigle, Carson Benge, Chase Telater, Murakami, Schlittler, McClain, Alex Freeland for some reason.
Hyatt LazearHOST
Is he even on the Dodgers' postseason roster? I have...
Spencer WagonHOST
If there's a, a top rookie, like I said, that debuts early in the season, right? Maybe they get called up in April, uh, maybe they don't start the year with the club, uh, or maybe they do, uh, chances are they end up in Topps Update.
Spencer WagonHOST
Uh, so you have quite a few guys, uh, in this set that haven't had a true Topps rookie card yet, like Kevin McGonigle, uh, JJ Weatherholt, Travis Bazan, uh, Carson Benge, Connor Griffin.
Spencer WagonHOST
Uh, they've had cards in other sets, but not the true Topps flagship set.
Spencer WagonHOST
Uh, and you get your first, uh, chance to collect their rookie cards, uh, here.
