Kyle Tucker

But you don't have those crazy power numbers, mostly because of Shohei.

A lot because Kyle Tucker hasn't delivered.

Max Muncy has delivered pop, that's been for sure, but it's come in bursts.

It hasn't been that slow, steady kinda thing.

And y- with Bregman, I think you're seeing how much of a difference maker he is compared to...

Remember this time last year, it was, "Can Kyle Tucker get it going again?" And, you know, is he...

You know, he went off to Tampa or wherever to work on, uh, you know, work with his-

His calf.

And it, it would...

Plus it require, that would require them to fully give up on Tay Oscar Hernandez and Kyle Tucker, which they have not done, right?

Mm-hmm.

Like, so they're o- they're not...

Teoscar Hernandez, 14 homers, 5 stolen bases, batting .265.

Kyle Tucker, we talked about him coming back yesterday.

We talked about him.

We wouldn't be surprised to see if he's the star of the playoffs because yesterday, 15th homer and stole his 11th base.

He's still only batting .227, but he's getting back to the Kyle Tucker that we love.

Cincinnati, Nick Lodolo, four earned runs in seven innings with four walks, ERA 512.

Ellie, 27th homer, batting 284.

Maybe you give him a shot.

But again, it's like, who do you not have on the roster to give him that spot? You know, and how are you guys feeling about Tucker?

Feeling better about Tucker.

Definitely the last couple of games.

It's funny how well he plays not at Dodger Stadium.

Go ahead.

I talk a lot anyway.

No, I think what gives me the most hope with Tucker is how the other guys talk about him and how when he does well, like how I see them like really trying to like lean into that because they want him to do well.

And you're right now relying upon Tommy Edmond, who's got a .335 on base, along with Will Smith, who's just getting off the injury list, trying to get jiggy with it, trying to be able to give you some production.

Tasker Hernandez is looking a little bit better, but Kyle Tucker has had himself a miserable year.

Dodgers are number one in the big leagues in terms of run creation away from home, but this is not your normal Dodgers team.

And then for the Cincinnati Reds, they've actually been a bottom eight team in terms of run creation at home.

Dodgers would chip away in this six.

Tommy Edmond and RBI ground out scoring Kyle Tucker and the Reds had a 3-2 lead over the Dodgers.

They were within striking distance until they weren't.

In the bottom of this six, RBI single from Brito made it 4-2 as the Reds then would tack on more in this seventh.

Making awesome plays defensively.

I don't know if you guys saw him go to third when Kyle Tucker tried to get a cheap base yesterday, and he beat him to the bag, still putting in 100% effort.

So it is fun.

I mean, we just went down to the ballpark, Kirby and I and some other friends, and we're still supporting the team, still watching the team.

So maybe it's all a little bit shaky, I would say.

Well, there's somebody not too smart when you're giving Kyle Tucker $60 million a year.

Tim, can we do a Capitalism 101 segment led by Licks and myself? These people overextended make me want to smash somebody's

face.
