And now, it's Rich Eisen. hour number two the rich eisen show is on the air we're live on the uh disney plus uh streaming service we're live on the espn app everywhere live on espn radio presented by progressive insurance pleased to have you here at 844-204-rich number to dial travis etienne is going to join us uh what's more likely is coming up here on this friday uh my top five other games that i'm looking forward to seeing jeremy pivot in studio lots of fun uh lots of fun uh still to come especially when we're talking baseball now um the crazy part about all of this is how quickly things can start and end in the wild card round with just three games the guardians have an incredible september to remember and now it's over just three games in they got the opportunity to have a postseason a and then b to have all three games in cleveland but here comes a tigers team that says okay we fell apart but guess what we got a lottery ticket and we're cashing it in and the Tigers move on to take on the Seattle Mariners next which means either the Mariners or the Tigers are going to be playing for the right to represent the American League in the World Series and then you've got the Cubs and the Padres having at it and the Padres go into Chicago and even the series to force a third game.

3:26Rich Eisen:And now the Padres are home. And one thing we're definitely going to hear about was the full-on almost pushing and shoving that went down in the dugout when, because again, this is an old school, I guess, old stadium. the umpires use the visitors dugout to exit the uh stadium and the padres let the umpires know all about the missed call in the ninth inning on xander bogarts who could have walked to bring the tying run to the plate instead a clear ball that next year with the abs the system that will challenge umpires balls and strikes calls um if the padres had one of those in their pocket that would have been ball four and they went nuts in my two cents again on that subject matter is play better than the ump sump I mean there were probably tons of times that they could have had opportunities but when it comes down to that ninth inning man just don't put yourself in the hands of an umpire to blow a call and that umpire blew the call to say the least.

4:40Rich Eisen:But fittingly, Pete Crow Armstrong squeezes the final out for the Cubs. He had a phenomenal season and now the Cubs move on. The Cubs are moving on and they're taking on the Brewers. Oh boy, that's a great rivalry. Nice regional rivalry for the right to represent the National League against either the Dodgers or the Phillies. That's going to be a great series as well. And then you have game three between the Red Sox and the Yankees last night. Brockman's team and my team. Very proud of us, Chris. You and I have, I think, been on the up and up with one another. Yeah. And right now, this is what things can be crazy in the world of baseball.

5:27There are probably some Yankee fans trying to get arrested in Needham, Massachusetts right now.

5:34Rich Eisen:because the police chief there is the father of cam schlittler and they want an autograph and they want to make sure that they can get something from cam schlittler this kid who came up in the middle of the season and started firing fastballs and started showing a little bit of glimpses of awesomeness and then became even more awesome but towards the end of the month I was watching wondering would he be trusted to start a playoff game they handed him a lead a couple of times large lead he couldn't even get out of the fifth inning but he's got electric stuff and there are times I swear to you as I'm watching these games with Coop at home where like he looks like Garrett Cole I thought the same thing he looks like Garrett Cole I thought the same thing in the first inning I mean facially his style of pitching his body language all of it and I'm like if he could be Garrett Cole heaven forbid in October and then last night the battle of the kids Schlittler's the one who dropped his huggies and became a grown ass man against Connolly Early who was making just a 5th career start and here's the ball kid go win a game in yankee stadium with a bullpen that was kind of gassed to get to game three um and to try to wrap things up to avoid a game three by alex core in game two and that kid was really good too yep he just had one inning he had one inning where left the ball over the plate the yankees took advantage a couple of plays out uh behind him weren't made yada yada yada it's a four-run lead and schlittler was just like not blowing that one.

7:26Rich Eisen:And a good old fashioned eight inning performance. And listen, I was confident in the kid. I was believing in the kid and I could never in a million years have thought, okay, what we're going to get as Yankee fans out of Camp Schlittler is the first ever playoff performance by a pitcher with eight innings 12 or more strikeouts and no walks i can't believe he's the first to ever do it not that he did it obviously that is kind of wild that he just did it had never been done before yeah like i was sitting there like jack maris never did that yeah nobody else has ever done like name me like gibson name me another like nobody's ever had eight shutout with 12 walks yeah i mean 12 strikeouts and no walks he's the first to do it And he does it in that instance to close out the Red Sox to move the Yankees on to Toronto in the American League Divisional Series.

8:27Rich Eisen:Stuff that, I mean, he's, hey, Cam, you got to spot an old-timers day for the rest of your life. You know, no matter what you do from here on out, what he's done is pitch the Yankees into the next round with a performance that was electric. Electric, that's the word Alex Corey used after the game. and this is what schlittler had to say after the performance of his life in this spot of his life making the lives of all yankee fans much better i got really good sleep last night i wasn't you know too worried about it but uh you know i woke up and i was and i was locked in so um i knew exactly what i need to do and go out there especially against my hometown team so um as i told andy yesterday um i wasn't gonna let him beat me so um i was just overconfident in that fact but making sure I wasn't getting too carried away with it.

9:19Rich Eisen:Andy is Andy Pettit, who he was apparently conversing with. You knew the Yankees were doing their best to mean business. I don't know how that would spook any of the Red Sox to throw Bucky Dent out there for the ceremonial first pitch, but they did. It was the anniversary of the home run. It was Bucky Dent. I remember that anniversary because, A, it was my dad's birthday. May he rest in peace on that day. And it was also the first day my parents ever let me out of Hebrew school to watch a baseball game. i begged them i absolutely begged them that's an eight-year-old it worked it did and i also became uh a man in the eyes of the lord who years later would work on yom kippur by interviewing charlie sheen i'm going to hell mazel tov uh at any rate thank you for that yeah i mean you became a man at eight i thought it was 13.

10:10Rich Eisen:dude eventually i became a man like a mike gundy i'm 40 man dude eventually grown ass man uh well i i i was gobsmacked couldn't believe he's going in and that and that boon would keep letting him pitch too let him keep going well the binder told him to nice keep him in the nice but at any rate uh i'm static over the moon season still going on and they got it i mean the the uh the blue jays had the yankees number so it's going to be either the blue jays and yankees against either the tigers and the mariners and it's either the dodgers or phillies against either the cubs or the brewers and congratulations to major league baseball i mean just an outstanding series between two blood rivals in the yankees and the red sox now you got a series between two blood rivals in the Cubs and the Brewers and Dodgers Phillies and and you've got the New York Los Angeles Chicago Philadelphia markets yeah covered the Pacific Northwest is locked in in a way that you know they're all Cal Raleigh crazy uh the Tigers the old English D they got the state of Michigan and you got a little Toronto kind of in the mix this has a weird like 2023 feel where it was Rangers and Diamondbacks.

11:30Rich Eisen:It feels like we could get kind of a wonky World Series, whereas last year was, you know, Blue Blood, Dodger Yankees. I do want to give you the floor for a minute. And again, the Red Sox traded Devers and got better. They didn't have Roman Anthony in this series. And that was, you know, you wonder what difference that would have made. You know, he took over the kind of the lead hitter role. Bregman kind of had a coming back from injury, He just wasn't the same player the second half of the season. Last night he used the past tense saying, you know, it was an honor to wear this uniform. He can opt out.

12:04Rich Eisen:Yeah, it feels like he's not coming back. It's kind of been the vibe since the break. The Yankees should be all over him. Just turn yourself into the Dodgers. You want all the money when you're 50 like Otani, please? I don't know. But I love your manager. Yeah. Love the manager. Love all the young guys. it was a season where you feel like maybe they kind of overachieved after, you know, trading Devers, which, you know, I'm arguing with your brother-in-law on Twitter about it. He didn't need to go. He kind of needed, he needed to go. The clubhouse situation was untenable and you could see how they all were kind of, uh, they were kind of one measure.

12:42Rich Eisen:They were one unit where it was, it didn't seem like it was a little more fractured when he was there, but immeasurably better without him. You know, the pitching, I think that helped in the second half of the year, they had one of the highest DRAs, you know, after the all-star break. So you kind of get that locked up and, you know, go out and free agency, kind of get some more starters. Lucas G Alito was injured, not on the roster. Walker Bueller didn't work out. Some of those things, you know, you got a rookie making his fifth start in a playoff game. Not the ideal situation, even though, you know, early was good.

13:09Rich Eisen:But, you know, if Anthony was healthy, maybe you win this series, but didn't think you were going to make it this far to begin with. So, you know, back in the playoffs playing, you know, nervous, tense, stressful October baseball is fun. And, you know, let's do it again next year. Yeah. next year in Boston. Oh, boy. 844-204-RICH is the number to dial. It's a Friday, so let's do it. What's more likely before Travis Etienne joins us? Hit it. What? What's more likely? Never say never, but never. All right, Christopher. Hey, guys. How's it going? Jay Felly, good to see you. Hey, what's up? We watched a couple of NFC West teams go out of last night, so let's throw this out there.

13:53Rich Eisen:more likely NFC West team to miss the playoffs. 49ers, Rams, Seahawks. They're not all going to make it. It doesn't feel like. Well, I mean, I think they could all make it. As a matter of fact. But it doesn't feel like. I know you want blood on the floor right now. You want to drink my milkshake right now. I drink it up. You want blood. Jeez. You know, obviously the Niners are the ones that are dealing with their backup quarterback, but he's 3-0. The Niners are the ones that are injured, but they're coming back. The Niners are the ones that, you know, you would think would potentially fall apart because everyone is physically falling apart there, but they've already won at the Rams and at Seattle.

14:43Rich Eisen:Man, I don't know. I'll just throw Seattle out there for the moment. You know, I'm just not going to quit the Rams. I think they're just too damn good at some point. But they just keep making mistakes. They let field goals get blocked. And they have two massive fumbles. One on the plus side of the field and one inside the one. By their two running backs. In a rare coaching blunder by McVay on that fourth down call. Okay. What else, Chris? More likely a backup quarterback that's going to get a win on Sunday. We've got two new guys going out there. Dylan Gabriel or Cooper Rush? i'll take cooper rush one's at home the other one is you think starting in london might be a good thing i don't know i have no earthly idea i have no idea what to expect me neither all i know is that cooper rush has done it before and the ravens still have a bunch of talented people despite the mash unit on defense so you know uh i'll just take cooper rush at home as opposed to dylan gabriel first career start and it happens in london against the vikings defense that blitz five minutes ago is the joke I keep making, and I think it's still very good.

15:47Rich Eisen:It's good. I laugh every time. All right, thank you. More likely, 2-2 road team to hand someone their first loss. Broncos, Patriots.

15:59Rich Eisen:I'm going to back up my higher register. I'm going to go Broncos on this one. Yeah, I kind of think it's the Broncos. The Eagles seem like they're ripe for the taking. I think the Eagles are ripe for the taking, and I also think that if there's anybody that's equipped to just not GAF and go into Philadelphia and pull out stops. And also have the corners that can keep this pass game down and thus a lot of the murmuring louder. It's Denver. I'll go with the Broncos on this one. I think both games are going to be very fun and entertaining. Thank you, sir. More likely, team, we're talking about sniffing it on Monday.

16:42Rich Eisen:Raiders or Dolphins? Meaning they have a chance to win? No, meaning, you know, if they win, we're going to be like, you know what, I think the Kidders are sniffing it. They're in the playoff. In the playoff hunt. Play in the playoff hunt. Raiders or Dolphins? Raiders are at Indianapolis. Dolphins are... You know what? My higher register was initially going to be, no, the Dolphins might be still okay without Tyreek Hill. Darren Waller, you know, pretty good. I'm just going to go Raiders. Although, let's get Brock Bowers out there practicing. Will we please? Can we please get that? The knee injury is a little concerning.

17:20Rich Eisen:Yeah, I know what's going on there. A little concerning there. I'll go Raiders on that one. What else, Chris? Fun game in Seattle on Sunday. More likely, class of 18 quarterback to throw for 250-plus and two touchdowns. Baker or Sam Darnold? I'm going to go with Sam Darnold at home on this one. No Mike Evans on Sunday. I'm aware of that. I'm aware of that. The Bucs beat up. No Bucky Irving. Former Panthers quarterbacks as well. I know that. Remembering the good old days. The good old days. What? Yeah. And Seattle has gotten more. They're coming off of a 10-day break. And they're home with the 12s.

18:01Rich Eisen:I'll go Sam Darnold. Yeah, that was my higher register. Okay. Seattle's an NFC contender. I know. even though I just said that they're the ones I think three teams are going to come out of the West. One out of the South. One South then. Right. Maybe even one out of the East. I'm concerned about the Commanders, man. I am too. We'll get to them in a second. More likely to get their first win on Sunday in Week 5. Saints or Titans? I'll go Titans on the road in Arizona against a quarterback who's wondering if he's still going to be there for the new facility opening two years from now. What a weird thing to say.

18:39Rich Eisen:I know. Kyler Murray. I know. I know. And the Saints, I know, are at home, but I just don't see it, man. Really? I guess, I don't know. The Giants have been revitalized. They hung in there against the Bills last week. I know. You know, Rattler, Kendrick Miller is coming on. Obviously, come here. How long can the Titans be ass? Be ass? Be ass? I don't know the quote of the coach. I mean, the quarterback, right? Yeah, I mean, they're over four. I have it written down right here. If we keep it a buck right now, we ass. And again, for those who didn't hear yesterday, the explanation. That's how he said it.

19:18Rich Eisen:He's saying that if he's going to be completely and brutally honest with you, the team is playing far below its expectations. Thank you, TJ. Thank you for that. We need a segment. TJ explains things. Watch that. more likely let's talk about the game out here in SoFi on Sunday more likely superstar quarterback to return to form in a win Jaden Daniels gets back to last year former Herbert weeks one and two I'll go Herbert man Jaden Daniels has got Jaden Daniels does not have McLaurin and Noah Brown and a running game that we're still wondering where it's coming from and he's got a brace on his knee I'm concerned about this one now they could be so if i could be the home of the visiting team that walks into the building banged up and shocks everyone else with the majority of their fans there that's well um i'll just go herbert and move on all right uh how about this one more likely to be the higher total this weekend otani strikeouts saturday he's getting the game one starts okay or jamar chase catches because there haven't been a few of those i'm gonna give otani six strikeouts and i'm gonna give jamar chase 10 catches they're gonna force 10 catches yeah they're gonna force it to him and he's gonna get any yeah and i got jake jake browning's gonna have a day six right this is a plan you were willing to go in the national football league uh NFC championship game and beyond?

20:51Rich Eisen:That one? That one? The Lions? Don't just put that evil on me, Ricky Bobby. You're willing to perish upon this Jake Browning. It's going to turn at some point. This broken clock is going to be right, brother. Not necessarily. That was my other higher register that I discarded. I appreciate your conviction. I kind of think they're going to turn the corner with Jake Browning. I appreciate you standing and owning this. That's good. I'm owning it. One more. One more. Oh, my gosh. I can't believe there's one more. More likely to be an overreaction Monday topic by me next week. You can control this.

21:27Rich Eisen:Well, that's how you know you take the over, I guess. Okay. 49ers have a QB controversy or Zach Taylor's on the hot seat. Zach Taylor's on the hot seat because you already used that topic in the first segment today. I mean, you did. I didn't go all out on it. Yes, you did. I didn't go all out. You just get out of here, man. don't you wish jed wish he had that 180 million Taylor on the hot seat I mean as much as I'm having fun with Jake Browning and Jamar Chase is going to have more catches than Otani has strikeouts against the Philadelphia Phillies game one division series start it's more likely than not that the Bengals will have lost their third in a row and we're talking about is what's happening in Cincinnati I don't know if it's going to be a full-on Zach Taylor hot seat I would call that an overreaction but you've already done the topic of the 49ers quarterback controversy mac jones the harvey dent of the san francisco 49ers sliding door the nfl shout out dave damage check like what if they had just taken mac jones third like what if kyle shanahan didn't get reportedly overruled by management i don't know brother super bowl they probably If that happened, then Shanahan has a moment within management saying, when we're on the clock, will you listen to me, please?

22:43Rich Eisen:Yeah. Not as if they don't, but good. What's more likely, everybody? Oh, I got one last one for you. What's more likely? Well, you know, actually, we'll do that in the next, you know. No, no. We'll do that in the next TV segment. Unless, unless maybe before Travis Etienne. Okay. Yeah. I got one for you. Oh, super. 844-2. No, you're not going to like it. Yeah, yeah, I imagine. I'll put you in a position for a change. 844-204-RICH, number to dial. Travis Etienne, the Jaguars about to join us.

I've got one more. What's more likely? For you. You need one more? Sure. All right, we'll get one more. We'll get one more. What was more likely? That I would come and show up today and give Brockman time to talk about the Red Sox season being better than anybody gave an opportunity for them? certainly those of us in here and giving them their due or me coming in and just being a total a-hole about it because my Yankees moved past the Red Sox and your Mets we spent here March, April, May talking about how I'd be looking up and seeing other teams well you were oh, okay but at the end of the day what would you think would be much more likely?

26:46Rich Eisen:Chris, can we just play the Bill Burr clip where it's like, oh, this is about you. Oh, yes, it is about me. And you can be an a-hole about it without outwardly being an a-hole. The undertones are there. You're subtly being an a-hole. The tone is there. How are you expecting an a-hole? Thank you. Let's just get this out of the way here. Is Al and Dallas on the call? Because we've got to just pop them on real quick before we get to Travis Etienne. You there, Al? You there, Al? Yeah, I mean, I want to do a Frank to Tank kind of rant, but I won't because I don't have a lot of time. But I hope David Stearns and Stevie Cohen were watching the playoffs because it's about starting pitching, Richard.

27:25Rich Eisen:Yes, sir. That's what it's about in baseball. It's absurd how good some of the starting pitching was during the playoffs. And it was great to see. And congratulations, by the way. Thank you. You have the new king of New York. I hope so. That pitcher was fantastic. I hope so. I hope the future is Cole comes back and we got a mini Cole who's not so many. He's 6 '6". He's a giant. Or you got a Cole 2.0 and you got two lefties in Freed and Radon and you throw Heal in there and off we go. Like that's it. We got play homes. You're a reject. We got nothing. We got zero. Garbage. Well, apparently you got a new coaching staff.

28:03Rich Eisen:They just blew everyone out today other than the manager. What's the point of that? Just get rid of the manager too. He should have went too, by the way. Yeah, there you go. There's something else I want to say. Will you please, Christopher Brockman, take Jameis Winston's name out your mouth. I don't want him traded. Russell Wilson to the Bengals. See ya. Bye-bye. Get out of here. Al. Alan Dallas, everybody. See ya, Al. You got another month to go. By the way, I don't think you're speaking anything into existence. No, I mean it. let's turn to this next guy who's back on the Rich Eisen show after his Jaguars took care of the Niners just last week they got the Chiefs on Monday Night Football we had Xavier Worthy on yesterday we just want to be fair and balanced here we go, one of your guys ladies and gentlemen, Travis Etienne Jr.

28:54Rich Eisen:back on the Rich Eisen show, how are you doing sir? I'm doing good, how are you? I'm good, what do you mean he's your guy TJ? what do you mean? oh well you know Travis knows this we have this saying in my league, TMG That's my guy. Whenever you see someone you have on your fantasy team. Travis Etienne right now has me in first place in my fantasy league. Which fantasy league is that, TJ? That would be the Franklin Strip Fanatics. Okay. I thought you have him against me this week as well. I have him in multiple leagues, and I'm doing well in multiple leagues because of this man. Travis, don't let this affect you.

29:26No, no, I'm not. We will continue to do good for him. Okay. That's my guy right now. That's what I'm saying.

29:31Rich Eisen:Yeah, I mean, listen, don't let that go to your head. I know that sort of stuff can go to your head. No, not at all. You must be hearing that a lot lately, that's for sure. I should be on the other side of the fantasy league, too. That's what I'm saying. You're hearing the good stuff right now. You're hearing the good stuff. Yeah, the good things right now. Okay, so let's hit it. How has Liam Cohen's offense and what he's brought to that side of the equation suited you so far? It's been great. I feel like he's been doing a great job of putting me in space and just getting me out there on the edge, being able to let my talents work for me.

30:05Rich Eisen:And when he first arrived, was that apparent to you that this was going to be happening for you when you first got there? Yes, sir. Just understanding, just when I went and watched the Bucs, some of the things they did from last year, just kind of knew that he was kind of a guru in the run game, knowing he's going to just go out there and just get people on the block so I was able to go out there and just be myself. So it wasn't him basically verbalizing it, expressing it, like, hey, you're going to love what I'm going to do for you, Something like that. No, no, no. He didn't verbally express it, but I mean, I seen it.

30:35I seen it with my own eyes, so I kind of knew what was going to happen as long as I put the work in.

30:40Rich Eisen:Well, this is a man that says things with his chest, kind of saw that this past weekend. What is he like as a coach that you're willing to share, Travis? I mean, he's a great coach. I feel like he's a fiery guy. Like you said, he says with his chest, so you know what he means. And I feel like anytime you have a guy who's forward and you know what they mean and he means what he says, you just love a guy like that because there's no cutting around the edge, there's no cutting the corner. And you can just play behind a guy like that. Well, I mean, since 2018, there's only two players to average six yards a carry on 60 or more carries in his team's first four games of a season.
