Ben showed more passion and emotion in one ball game than Gleyber Torres has shown in his whole fucking career.
But I give Torres some credit because he actually played pretty well on the day of his injury - finally running hard.
When I get home, this podcast is one of the first things I look forward to listening to. Boy, what a day for Rice! And, I was at the game!
We have the best audience on UA-cam, and it’s not particularly close. Only the beginning but we’re thankful for where we are today.
We have some special guests coming to keep us in the loop for the deadline 👀
@@BoogieBoyBrown that top hundred is hype safe picks. If you talk to scouts it's not a real good indication of projection to MLB. You have to actually watch players play. There's things that stats don't explain. There are certain types of hitters and players with hit skills you need to have a well rounded line up.
Really nice to see how Rizzo was so excited for Benny Basmati!
Generational playing hand eye coordination is the key to the Hall of Fame. Gotta have vision has vision that’s why he looks disciplined.He can see the ball 😅
I grew up being tramatized by Jim Rice in my late teens, it nice having Yankees Rice
Jim Rice was such a boob
Great comment haha yes I agree now the Red Sox fans get a taste of it
Very happy for Rice. Love watching his at bats.
Re Sheff Jr’s comment about finances and rosters: absolutely correct. You need to judge performance not just AAV when saving money.
Best Yankees pod out rii now 🙏🏾
We appreciate you🫡
We needed that W bad we need to call up Dominguez and other young bucks asap and turn this ship around
MLB does not even have Ben Rice as a top 100 prospect, ridiculous.
The clubhouse psychology of having a rookie or two in it is invaluable in my opinion. The rookie(s) bring energy and a focus on basics, a positive energy and attitude the veterans cannot ignore. Accordingly, having at least one rookie in the clubhouse is a necessary strategy... especially one such as Ben Rice.
Totally agree we saw it in 2022 when they called up Peraza and Cabrera
I also would love to bring up Vivas and Durbin if you really want to give Volpe some time to develop more.
Yes Yankees need to do this with there youth. Redsox have this plan and it’s working
Bingo! Call up the kids
Wait to see if J.D. Davis is at first tomorrow before praising Cashman.
Dont put that evil on us😂
Keep bringing the kids up,, they are going to do a lot better,,then the older guys,,we have to 💯
Ben Rice is there to stay. His metrics in the minors said ready. K/BB ratio and Babip # are the signature stats that project the other stats will be comparable to minor league #. K/BB that close to 1/1 and Babip at .301. He doesn't chase and has a plan when he's hitting. He doesn't have an obvious hole in his swing because he adjusts based on the type of pitcher he's facing. Watched him in the minors about 10 games over the last two years. He'll hit and adjust. He is never going to strike out a lot .
Great show guys
Ben Thrice is his new nickname
I like that too
We need to bring up Vivas for secobd base he is young, fadt and has some pop
he also pick up the
spirit of the team that was badly needed.
A major boost
It's obvious the Mr. Rice is the greatest first baseman in the history of the franchise. It's amazing to me that there are people that don't recognize that fact.
Take a deep breath and drink a big glass of water everyone.
No Luke Voit was that. And Luis Gil is already a HOF multiple Cy Young winner.
It's great to see Rice succeed. But small samples are small samples.
What about beer?
Wrong,Greg Birdd was the greatest 1st baseman in baseball history,followed by Kevin Maas,and Steve Balboni.
Prefer single malt scotch @@wesleyturner1979
The whole abs today were great. All of Rice's homerun were baseball off smart approaches. He was either ahead in the count or hit the mistakes. And everyone else wasn't really pulling off or did small ball.
When Rice first came up they pitched him outside. Ben hit the ball to CF & took his walks. They decided to try to get him out inside & he hit 4 bombs. Slumps are short if Ben is willing to take what they give him. Volpe doesn't do that.
Volpe has that capacity just needs to get back to slashing line drives to right and right - center most of the time.
Time for me to get back on my Uncle Ben's Converted Rice diet.
Swing made for the short porch.
Its a beauty
Feel like a champion 🏆 😊
reminds me who did Lou Gehrig take over for. Injury aside Anthony R!!z00
They had a scoring orgy a week ago or so. Let's hope this time it means that they have snapped out of the offensive doldrums. But with Stanton and Torres out of the lineup, it's hard to see them becoming an offensive machine.
Offense has been getting better. It’s the pitching
Here before 1 million subs

@@yankeesunloadedlove the podcast seriously! High quality good topic and discussion
@@yankeesunloadedyall stay optimistic while still saying shit that needs to be said
I won’t be happy until we win a series against these bums. Should’ve beat em last night. Hopefully we didn’t blow all our offensive firepower today. Win the damn series tomorrow.
Jaren Duran looked like he gained 20lbs of muscle when he returned to MLB
I hate Boone but the decision to slide Volpe down was much needed and I’m glad they didn’t force Volpe at leadoff all year. He is way too fast to not have at least the same sb’s as the top guys in baseball. I truly think 9 is the perfect spot for Volpe. Truly wish they’d just do that for rest of year. Great way to turn over the lineup. No shame batting 9, unless you make it so
Ben rice needs to stay at 1 spot
A roider is Born
@@robertlittle-yk4vgnah Ben rice pure power and he only 25
uh huh
most hrs ever in 1 season 20 lmao
roider
It's a shame it took for rizzo to get hurt for them to call him up.
If he did t get hurt would people even know about him?
Maybe, he plays catcher as well.
He would probably have an 1800 OPS in AAA right now and still not be on the 40 man roster lol
Caught Gerrit Cole’s last rehab start
Don’t forget he’s still learning how to play 1st base,he’s really a catcher! Or was a catcher 🙃
Mentioned during the show 👍🏽
Bring up Vivás to play 2B, agustín to play C (Wells being an option off bench), Dominguez in LF when he gets back…and tbh I’d bring Spencer up to cycle around outfield because you know G is getting hurt again.
My Ideal lineup (perfect world)
1. Jorbit Vivás 2B
2. Aaron Judge RF
3. Juan Soto LF
4. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. 3B
5. Jassan Dominguez DH
6. Agustin Ramirez C
7. Ben Rice 1B
8. Anthony Volpe SS
9. Spencer Jones CF
Only reason I have Martian DHing and not Soto is because Soto said he doesn’t want to DH
Does anyone feel we are always one step behind? Rice was awesome today but if we continue spiraling we have a first baseman next year. But what about every other position that’s missing?
Josh Smith was in the Gallo deal to & he is raking for the Rangers.
Best to have kids be able to play all over, start at shortstop the hardest position from transferable to all over the defense be athletic contact orientated.Wasn’t it Charlie Law start by hitting the ball on a downward projection ball will go out over the fence a certain percentage of the time if you stay consistent
I think Rice looks a lot like Damien Lewis; the guy who played Winters in Band of Brothers…. Maybe a combo of Lewis and Tom Holland.
Haha
I’m pretty sure we all said the same things when Volpe was a rookie. He hasn’t panned out as a consistent hitter. Hopefully, Volpe can turn it around.
Volpe never ever ever ever looked as comfortable or confident as rice does. He isn’t chasing like wells and has mature approach. IMO them DEVELOPING then playing in mlb helps with that tremendously, Yankees just refused to give guys chances. Rice swing is short and sweet and HITS STRIKES, unlike a lot of others on this team
Watch Boone sit him next game and then say all the HRs were against righties.
Or Boone will say I’m sitting Rice today to give him a days rest,he’s 25 years old
Oh good lord haha
😐
MIckey Mantle was sent back down to minors in 1951 after he started the season with the team
And nearly quit until his dad threatened to take him back home and make him work in the mines....maybe the Yankees should buy a mine.
HAHAHA
Wow thats incredible
As opposed to Everson Jose Pereira who's BB/K is 3/1 and higher and Babip is .354 will not translate to the majors. He's not ready yet like Ben Rice is. The day they called him up I said he won't be going back down again . Ben Rice is for real..do not trade him.
did you hear the chants of ....DJ sucks.... just before he got his base hit?... not sure I love the approach but it was from the fans that pressured the release of Gallo Donaldson Hicks.
Let’s hope he’s does not turn out to be another Greg Bird! Very similar swing
Greg Bird’s swing was longer than Oppenheimer so let’s not worry about that being the case.
Now give me Wells in the 4 hole behind Judge
lol chill
How much is Anthony Rizzo getting a year? I don’t know 18 1/2 20 million. How much is Ben gonna make who cares how much it’s gonna cost
Until he goes 0-40 I hope he learns that Yankee fans are very fair weather friends. ijs 🤷🏻♂️
Guess he better not go 0-40!
@@yankeesunloaded yeah then you'll be all over him like white on 🍚
Relax boys .
We are relaxed lol
Love Ben rice. I’m sure Boone will sit him tomorrow for JD Davis which sucks. lol but “Benny basmati”, that’s a terrible nickname. Sorry brother haha. “Uncle Ben” That might work!
Right now Weaver should be the closer.
Gil is tired, needs time off to reset then move him to the bullpen.
Rice is Kyle Tuckerish
Tyra your right but why didn’t you say this yesterday before his HRs.
?
Quietly, Soto has been mostly a walk machine lately. He’s not the Soto from early in the year. I just don’t know if you can make a guy who walks a ton the highest paid player in baseball history. Let Soto walk, Dominguez takes that spot and we build a legit DEEP team. No more old guys!!! Secondary, Rice’s defense has been Bad sorry. Rice hits so I don’t care, but when we’re healthy I can see him DHing some.
Rizzo--->Rice=Bledsoe--->Brady?
😳
Soto will go to the highest bidder
Ben “pork fried” Rice.
Hahaha
Rice one game
Yankees win one game and yankee fans think they’re back. Fanbase is a joke 😂
When did we say they are back?
Is shelf jr a Maga
Kevin Maas……
Clean your glasses
It’s just one game
Converted rice
It just one game
Propaganda
Why don’t you address the real problem
Then what
Get real Soto is rented
Stop gloating
