To.

[00:00:03]

Draftkings Network.

[00:00:13]

Greg, hey. It's not popular. Hey, tell the two guys to stop talking for a second. We're going to do content here.

[00:00:21]

How about the Switherspin?

[00:00:22]

I can hear you. Greg. It should be a good one. Yeah, I hear.

[00:00:25]

You, Mike. It was an odd show for you a little bit. We put a smile on your face, but playing a couple of your songs. You didn't have a back-of-my-day. We only got you really in a rhythm maybe once or twice this show, and it's a postgame show. I'd like the opportunity on a Greg, Cody, Tuesday to let you get some topics off.

[00:00:43]

Oh, what do you want?

[00:00:46]

Do you remember the things you had to talk to?

[00:00:48]

What's on your mind? What's on your mind? I know you wanted to talk about Manny Diaz.

[00:00:52]

Oh, we can go with Maynie Diaz, sure. You want to talk about Maynie? I mean, that's in your wheelhouse. Did you pulverize that yesterday?

[00:00:58]

I haven't spoken about Maynie Diaz. Okay, let's go there. I haven't been asked.

[00:01:01]

We're already on the air. We're doing it. Yeah, we're on the air. Oh, we are?

[00:01:03]

Okay. We're on the air now. Here's the thing. This is beautiful to me, and I love it because it puts that much more pressure on Mario Cristobal. A fellow ACC team, Duke, hires the guy that Miami fired to hire Mario Cristobal. When you look back on Maynie Diaz's career here, wasn't that bad. You could make an argument that they fired him a little prematurely. He had a much better record in three years than Manning does in two. I'm just saying it adds another layer. It's a whole third year there. -it adds another layer of interest to me in the coming season.

[00:01:40]

From Miami. You're $10, Greg, because you have twice into the microphone three times.

[00:01:45]

He have a cough button. He doesn't have a.

[00:01:48]

Cough button. Yeah, no, I really don't.

[00:01:49]

He's not.

[00:01:50]

Going to understand.

[00:01:50]

You're more than $5, though.

[00:01:51]

Can we support our guy?

[00:01:53]

I'm going to try to. I'm going to try to. You do have a cough button now, and we tried to teach you this, but I'd like to explain to the audience, after we had a very public showing of getting your hair cut, you now look like the cast members of The Jersey Shore 50 years from now. Your hair right now is something straight.

[00:02:14]

Out of the movie Grease.

[00:02:16]

What is happening?

[00:02:16]

Straight out of what?

[00:02:18]

The movie Grease.

[00:02:20]

The.

[00:02:20]

Famous-not the country. Okay, yeah. Don't be offended.

[00:02:23]

The movie Grease. He was telling me earlier that he tried to cut it himself. That's a.

[00:02:27]

Dangerous thing.

[00:02:27]

Actually, listen, so I did hear this.

[00:02:29]

What happened?

[00:02:30]

Because Greg Cody here.

[00:02:31]

Got.

[00:02:32]

A very.

[00:02:32]

Polished, very expensive, very fashionable haircut that he did not like. But I did-What a.

[00:02:40]

Hate a Greek haircut.

[00:02:41]

I just.

[00:02:42]

Hurged to God to ask Greg. Greg, is that a cut on your ear? And Greg said, Yes.

[00:02:47]

I had a mishap while trying to cut my own hair. What happened?

[00:02:51]

I wanted to give myself, because the haircut that I had here, supposedly a free haircut, but by the time you give the guy a lavish tip, you end up- We're going to.

[00:03:01]

Allow you to- -you stole from the fine bucket.

[00:03:03]

We're going to allow you to keep going. But that was really good shit he had on Manny the other day.

[00:03:08]

Thank.

[00:03:08]

You. Anxious to see where.

[00:03:09]

It was going. Thank you very much. I get the little razor thing, and I'm trying to give myself a very brief fade.

[00:03:19]

You're trying to fade.

[00:03:20]

Your own hair? I'm gathered right on top of my ear, just a little subtle thing on each side, so I can avoid going to the barber for another few months. And then the first time I tried it, it dug like a big patch out, and I'm still trying to cover it up. I learned my lesson. You know what? I'm not going to try to cut my own hair anymore.

[00:03:43]

And did you enjoy your time on the Bryan Seltzer Orchestra?

[00:03:47]

No, I don't know what you mean by that.

[00:03:49]

Jeremy, let's.

[00:03:50]

Finally get.

[00:03:51]

To the top five, Silliest payments in baseball.

[00:03:54]

Before we do that, perhaps Greg Dow has a greater appreciation of hairstyles to people who cut your hair and give them a better tip.

[00:04:00]

I gave them a good tip.

[00:04:02]

Out of the bucket.

[00:04:04]

I think I gave them 20 bucks. What's wrong with that for a tip for a haircut?

[00:04:08]

It wasn't your money.

[00:04:09]

You stole it from the fine bucket.

[00:04:11]

Yeah, I know. It was there. It was a $20 bill there. I took it. In the post-pandemic era, I don't carry cash money anymore.

[00:04:20]

That's right. No, what happened was I walked in, said, Are you going to take care of this guy? And he goes, How so?

[00:04:26]

Because I didn't have any money.

[00:04:27]

And then you found some.

[00:04:28]

And then you go, Look, there's a jar of money right there.

[00:04:30]

I should have given them an assigned copy of The Pride of a Lion, but at that time, the book hadn't come out yet. So there's a $20 bill sitting there. I grab it fully meaning to pay back the fine bucket. I just haven't gotten around to it yet. Thank you for the reminder, by the way. Finders keepers. Yeah, damn right.

[00:04:48]

You owe Jessica $20. She reached into the fine bucket the other day after instant death, and there was no money in it. Somebody continues to steal the money out of the fine bucket. It's offensive to me. It's a fireable offense. I don't fire anybody, and it's a.

[00:05:03]

Fireable offense. There will be, at some point, me having to fire somebody if they get caught stealing from the fine bucket.

[00:05:12]

That's going to be the thing that gets me fired. It's going to get.

[00:05:15]

Somebody fired. We can't have someone who's a thief just stealing money. Jessica, there was money in there, Jessica. I know because I'm the only one who pays the fines.

[00:05:26]

Chris just insinuated that someone who no longer works here has flown back into town to steal the fine bucket money once again. For those of you who know the inside joke.

[00:05:34]

There you go. I have my theories.

[00:05:36]

Jeremy, let's.

[00:05:37]

Finally get to this, because while I like the joke of never getting to your top five silliest payments in baseball, I.

[00:05:44]

Actually have wanted to get to this for about three hours.

[00:05:48]

Please, let's do it. Do you have any OLIs?

[00:05:50]

I do. I have two OLIs, because no longer Anthony Reindone, we already got to that joke.

[00:05:55]

This is.

[00:05:56]

Next year. The Sillius.

[00:05:57]

Payments is.

[00:05:58]

Next year. These are upcoming, correct. So in 2024, these baseball players will be paid this amount of money. So two OLIs, each at $2 million equal to Show-hey O-Tanya. First, Joey Wendell. Then he is yet to play in the Major Leagues. He's the number one prospect for the Milwaukee Brewers and was recently extended Jackson-Churio. He will get paid the same amount of money as Show-hey O-Tanya. Number five, at $38 million, the Oakland Athletics. Their whole team, 38 million. Number four, of course, Bobby Menia. Number two: $1 million. Number three at $3.6 million from the Cincinnati Reds-This is great. -ken Griffin Jr.

[00:06:55]

How old.

[00:06:57]

Is the kid? How old is the kid? Is he Genotoretta's age?

[00:07:00]

I think he's 51, I think.

[00:07:02]

I think Ken Grovy Jr. Is Gino Tarretta's age.

[00:07:06]

Number two, at $9.6 million from the Baltimore O'Reals, Chris Davis.

[00:07:15]

Junior?

[00:07:16]

That's the same Chris Davis. That's the same Chris Davis.

[00:07:19]

Yeah, the Orials catcher.

[00:07:19]

Remember that guy?

[00:07:20]

Yeah, the first baseman, he struck out.

[00:07:22]

A lot. You thought senior, moved on.

[00:07:23]

But a number one, another strikeout king from the New York Yankees at $32 million, Giancarlos Stim. Greg Cody- I mean, that's silly.

[00:07:32]

It is. It's all silly. Greg Cody, in a continued effort to get and mine the most out of you, I have found generally the best way to do that is to talk about you and the things you care about, which is you. The Pride of a Lion, the book is out. You should get it. It is a bestseller. It has been very popular. He did it with Ron McGill, who, I should say, would be an excellent game show host. Yeah, good. Greg Cody is the host of the Greg Cody show featuring Greg Cody. -with? -you should check out that podcast.

[00:08:03]

-fine.

[00:08:05]

And also, Greg Cody, if you want to get him engaged in subject matter, ask him about either his fantasy team.

[00:08:15]

Or.

[00:08:16]

His Hall of Fame ballot because he loves to tell people he's got a Hall of Fame ballot. So in an effort to get you involved in the show, and Mike Ryan, you better be ready in the event that he wants to go Lobos here, what do you want to do, Greg Cody, with the final four minutes that we have here? Do you want to do your Hall of Fame ballot or do you want to do your fantasy league?

[00:08:37]

I'd like to do the fantasy. It is.

[00:08:40]

Time now for a weekly update on our favorite team, Greg's Lobos. Here is their head coach and president of football operations, Greg Cody.

[00:08:54]

-jane, where are you going?

[00:08:56]

-hatie-rabie. Thank you, Thank you. I have to tell everyone, the Lobos did not have a great season. Okay, a few months ago, we incorporated and patented the phrase America's most famous fantasy football team, AMFFFT. Put it on T-shirts, thousands bought it. And then what did we do? With all that newfound attention, we took a shit during the fantasy season in PFPI fantasy. We had a losing record. We were snakebit. Cooper Cup was injured for a lot of the season.

[00:09:34]

Even you're.

[00:09:35]

Bored by this. Lamar Jackson just was up and down for me. He's the all-time lobo, El Jack, but he just did not come through for me. I want to tease something. It's not official yet, but I want to tell the Dan Levitard show listeners. Greg's lobo is thinking of a change at the top. We're thinking of firing head coach Greg Cody and bringing in a whole new regime to the lobos beginning next season. These things are in the works.

[00:10:02]

Any candidates?

[00:10:03]

No candidates. Well, we're interviewing. We've begun the interview process, but Deion Sanders is a rumor, but I don't know if he wants to leave Colorado already, but we're going to see about that. You got to pay them, Greg. Yeah, I know, but the transfer portal, if only it worked in fantasy, am I right?

[00:10:21]

The transfer.

[00:10:22]

Portal, yeah. Yeah, exactly. Anyway, that's the big news with Greg's Lobos. We're thinking of a big change at the top. But Lobos nation, don't give up on the Bowes because we're going to come back stronger than ever next season. Thank you. Thank you very much. Drive safely.

[00:10:37]

I want to submit a resume to.

[00:10:39]

Be your head coach. When will there be some closure on this? The offseason has just now begun. Matter of fact, the Lobos are in the non-championship round playoffs.

[00:10:49]

No one cares about the.

[00:10:50]

Constellation right now.

[00:10:51]

I know. I hate that. You do. My dad's always like, Hey.

[00:10:53]

Which seat are you in?

[00:10:53]

Which seat are you in? Nobody should even... They shouldn't... Fantasy leagues should not even have that. It should be the.

[00:10:58]

Championship- Chris is saying you like it, though. You get into it.

[00:11:01]

I'm duty bound to feel the team, let's put it that way. You have no choice.

[00:11:06]

Yeah, but we don't- But if you had a choice.

[00:11:09]

No, you don't. It's all or nothing. There's no in-season tournament in the fantasy-There should be. -i'm sorry, I can't tell you that.

[00:11:16]

-in-season fantasy. I like that.

[00:11:18]

That I like.

[00:11:19]

That's.

[00:11:20]

Hilarious. -pent and pending.

[00:11:21]

There's three weeks in the middle of the season where you go three and out, you win a little extra prize.

[00:11:26]

That would be funny. -how's PFPI looking?

[00:11:29]

This is actually. We let my daughter, who's five, and my brother's girlfriend in, and my brother's girlfriend who does like she's just guessing and she's winning the League right now.

[00:11:40]

She is. By only one game, though. Yeah, but she's guessing. Uncle Dick is second and the Lobos are third, quite frankly. But Tatiana does- Graceley is not doing well. No, Graceley is 99 and 109. Not that I keep track. But Tatiana is not guessing. She's not in first place without help. There's no law against it.

[00:12:03]

Don't get me wrong. I think she's looking at the spread.

[00:12:05]

She consults a brother, perhaps. She's perfectly like that. Yeah. No, it's legal. If she wins the championship as a rookie, as a P. F. P. R. Rookie, she will have earned it. She and Grayson right now are neck and neck for P. F. P. R. Rookie of the year race. Seems like only one.

[00:12:20]

Of them should win. And they're the only rookies.

[00:12:22]

They're the only rookies. One's in first place, one's in last. It seems like an obvious choice. But the one in last place is making a real run at Ruth's raccoon's longstanding record of 17 unique hits in 2007. Wow, U-H-Is.

[00:12:36]

How long has that been a record?

[00:12:38]

I think it was set in 2007.

[00:12:40]

Unbreakable.

[00:12:41]

Yeah, well, we thought so. We thought so. But Grace Lennon had two unique hits this past week, has 13 for the season with what is it, four weeks left? So it's going to be neck and neck whether or not she gets enough coonskins to capture that championship. That was an.

[00:12:59]

Awkward ending. Can you turn on this microphone? That is a terrible way to end this. What? The Cooke-the-Skins? You want to get to your Manning Diaz point?

[00:13:09]

I made it already.

[00:13:10]

Oh, Jesus.
