0:54
Big thanks to Root Sports for letting us play those highlights on the radio
0:57
show, because the guy he was describing today, A Bryce Miller was absolutely
1:02
sensationally joined us right now on the radio show. Bryce, how are you
1:06
man? I'm great, I'm great. Good to get a get a sweet
1:11
Well, it's great to have you on the show. You were unbelievable today,
1:15
man, six innings, one hit, one earned, seven k's,
1:17
one walk. Give us kind of a thought on what you thought was really
1:19
working out there for you against that red offense today. Man, yeah,
1:26
it was. It was a good day. Early on, I felt like
1:30
I didn't really have have the best stuff today, but it's one of those
1:33
days where he's got to figure it out. And you know, the splitter
1:37
has been big for me all year and then uh, today we were working
1:40
the sinker back door and it was really working. And correct me if I'm
1:46
wrong, But those weren't pitches that you relied on last year. A lot
1:48
of those you've worked on in the off season. Just talk about your work
1:51
ethic over the last six months or so to develop something other than your four
1:56
seamer. Yeah, yeah, no, both of those are are pretty new
2:00
pitches for me. The splitter was was added this offseason and it's been been
2:06
huge for me so far. I added the sinker like mid season last year,
2:09
but it was something that I wasn't very comfortable with and something I worked
2:15
on quite a bit of this offseason as well. But yeah, going into
2:19
the off season, I knew I needed to attack lefties better and I needed
2:22
to get them out a little more efficiently. So that's kind of where the
2:28
idea for the splitter came and so far, you know, things have been
2:30
going well. Yeah, I'd say they're going very well. Bryce Miller is
2:34
with us today. Phenomenal start for him today against the Reds. DMS get
2:37
to sweep against Cincinnati. And I don't know if you're a superstitious guy or
2:40
not, but if you are, I won't mention the numbers the last three
2:44
games. I'll just say you've been phenomenal. But what's been the difference for
2:46
you since that first start against Boston? Talk about kind of rebounding from that
2:52
game and what the last three games have meant to you. Yeah, No,
2:57
they last three have been really good. I think I felt like I
3:00
threw the ball well in the first game as well. I just got got
3:04
hit by that three run home run, and I was kind of falling behind
3:08
in some counts, you know, the first game against Boston, and so
3:12
the last few weeks I've been trying to, you know, be in better
3:14
counts and get ahead, and uh, it's uh, it's been going well.
3:19
So hopefully we keep a rolling do you and Logan and George kind of
3:24
have a hey, let let me show you what I can do type thing.
3:28
I mean George Co's out and goes six innings, gives up five hits, two runs. Then Logan's unbelievable yesterday. Now you're unbelievable. Do you
3:34
kind of like pass the baton and try to try to pay a little one
3:36
up on the guy that started in front of you? Uh No, not
3:40
really. I mean it's it's fun watching all of us go out and throw.
3:45
You know, every day you got you got somebody that's gonna go out and compete and give you linked and go out and throw throw the ball.
3:51
Well, we're all kind of kind of unique but similar, and it's like
3:55
I said, it's just really fun to go go watch everybody throw and go
4:00
out and compete. Yeah, yeah, definitely. It's it's fun to watch,
4:02
you know them have success and then feel like you got to follow it
4:05
up. Well, four days ago, you guys are six and ten,
4:09
and your skipper came out today and say, we just need to get guys
4:12
off their iPads in the dugout. That's not the bullpen, that's the dugout.
4:15
Maybe it's the hitter's problem, not the pictures problem. But tell me about kind of what was said behind the scenes to kind of get this thing
4:19
sparked the last couple of days. Yeah, I don't. I don't know.
4:27
I saw that on Twitter, actually, but I'm not I'm not in
4:30
the hitters meetings, so I guess I kind of have noticed that there's been
4:34
less iPad But I'm I'm whatever. I'm not pitching. I like to look
4:39
at them sometimes. I like to watch you know, other pictures though,
4:43
or watch you can you can learn a lot from that stuff, but hey,
4:47
whatever, whatever's working. Yeah, did it. Did it feel like
4:49
there was kind of a sense of urgency maybe the last couple of days that
4:54
hey, before this thing kind of gets into a bigger hole, we got
4:57
to figure a way out of this hole. Was there kind of a sense
4:59
of urgency you think during this Red Series? No, I mean, I
5:04
wouldn't say it was anything different. You know, it's it's a long season
5:09
and there's a lot of games, so we're definitely not We're not gonna panic
5:15
in the first fifteen games of the year. So it's uh, you know,
5:17
trust in the process and just go out and compete, you know,
5:21
go one pitch at a time, one at bad at the time, and
5:25
and you know, string together some wins and we're right back in it,
5:28
So it's we definitely weren't weren't in panic mode. Today's winner today, Bryce
5:32
Miller joining us here at Jimmy's on first on ninety three point three KJFM.
5:35
Bryce Softy was mentioning earlier on the show that you have so many dominant outings
5:41
and very few times you'll go out and have rough starts. But there's a
5:44
huge gap between your normal outing and your rough outing. So maybe more so
5:47
than a lot of starting pitchers who are maybe kind of more in the middle.
5:50
What what separates those dominant domino outings that you have like three quarters of
5:55
the time versus the other one quarter that you get roughed up. I'd say,
6:03
you know, just being in good counts is one of the main things.
6:06
You know, it's whatever you dig yourself a whole, you kind of
6:12
you give the hitter an advantage and then you know, letting them letting those
6:15
outings kind of snowballs where like I've gotten in trouble like last year. I
6:19
was. I was cruising last year at the beginning of the year, and
6:21
then I gave up eight against the Yankees and seven against Texas back to back.
6:27
So it was like, yeah, it hit me quick. But it's
6:30
the main thing is like you know, just going out and attacking, getting
6:33
ahead with my stuff and whatever. You know, there's back to back hits
6:39
or hitting a walk, like just trying to shut the ding down and not
6:42
not letting anything snowball and get out of hand. Well, you were amazing
6:45
today, man, and congratulations you've earned a start at Texas next Wednesday in
6:49
the launching pad, you know, Arlington Stadium. So go get him on
6:54
Wednesday against the Rangers. Man, great job tonight, and we'll talk soon.
6:57
Body appreciate him, man, Yes, sir? All right, Bryce
7:00
Miller with us on the radio show. Good to hear from him. After a sensational start for Bryce Miller today against Cincinnati, his last three starts nineteen
7:08
and a third one ear run, a point four to six ERA and a
7:12
point six y two whip for Bryce Miller. How about that? I will
7:15
sign up for that. And now you've got your three best pitchers rolling right
7:18
now, and let's see if you can get Luis up to somewhere close to
7:24
what these guys, other three guys have been. Ah, what do you
7:26
say we come back and hear from the skipper. He told the guys to
7:29
get off the iPads and they listen. Scott's servis a little bit from him
7:32
after today's sweep of the Reds. Next on ninety three to three KJRFM.
