[Music] But this is how we chill. [Music] But this is how we chill. [Music] But this is how we chill. The chill presented by Geico. [Music] If you played football, what position would you play? A kicker. It’s the easy answer. Yeah. Running back at a high school level. Yeah. High school level. What about you, Jax? Um, I didn’t play football in high school. Um, why not? Yeah, why not? I was playing baseball and basketball. Never never played in season. Did you How did you balance those two with classes? I was not very very good at online school. Did Oh, online. Online school. Yeah. Nice. Nice. Yeah. I go to the football games and support. But do you think you could have played college basketball? No. No. I stopped growing and so did my dream of playing basketball. Could you dunk? Could dunk. Not in games, but I’ I’d probably be the long snapper. We’d have quite the uh special teams unit. Bang. Bang. I’m Dominican, so we don’t play that over there, so I have no idea. But I like running back, though. You’d be a good running back. I think Yeah, I think so. He’d be really good. And I like training for that, you know. Mhm. Yeah. I mean, you got the broad shoulders to do it. Oh, you need shoulders for that? Yeah. You got you got Would you be able to truck a middle linebacker in the NFL? Uh, mentally maybe, but physically, I don’t know. Mentally, yeah. Uh, I agree. All right, Rich. On to you. Okay. Uh, who have you been mistaken for by fans? Oh, that’s good. You go ahead. I got to think about mine. Um, my brother. A few times I’ve gotten mistaken for my brother because I am smaller than him. So people have come up to me and asked me if I was Ethan. So anyone anyone on the Orioles? Um Gunnar. Yeah, Gunnar. Yeah. What about you, Mo? Felix kind of happens every once in a while, but No, I’m kidding. Um really? No, it’s never happened. But uh honestly, I really haven’t been mistaken for much. People usually see the hairline and know it’s me. So that’s funny, bro. Um, Ramon Urya is pretty obvious. So yeah, same name. Yeah, same name. You got kind of look alike. You got more pop. I do though. A little bit. Swing decisions, too. Baseball is Savan. Yeah. Yeah. Your Saber Metrics. Yeah. Very. Or your Cybermetrics. My bad. Cybermetrics. Yeah. What about I get I get cursed sometimes. Yeah, I get that. Cursed or or Gunner? Yeah. I haven’t gotten Jackson yet, though. He’s too small. I’ve gotten H before. Yeah. Yeah. I don’t really know who like I feel like I’ve gotten one before, but it wasn’t It was like my beard and Okay. Do you have a celebrity lookalike? Travis Kelsey. Yeah, I’ve actually gotten Travis Kelsey. Travis Kelsey. When I don’t have a neck beard and you know, nice little fade a fade. Yeah. Yeah. Really? Yeah. Travis Kelce. Yeah. Or football. Same type of Same type. Taylor Swift. You talking about Yeah. Yeah. Taylor Swift’s Taylor Swift’s boyfriend. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That’s all he’s known for. I saw on yahoo.com that he uh lowered he cut weight like 25 pounds. He body fat. I don’t know the body fat percentage. Do you think he was drinking? I’m not that analytic. I don’t know football, bro. I’m Dominican. I’m actually surprised he cut weight. What? I’m surprised he cut weight. He plays tight end. Yeah. I don’t know what tight end is. It’s like a you play on the line, but you also can run routes, so you have to block and catch passes. That’s badass. Yeah. So, like the Dennis Rodman of football. Did you What did you say? The Dennis Rodman of football. Oh, yeah. That’s cool. Uh my question to Ramon, what things have you learned since coming into the Orioles clubhouse? Goofy, bro. Goofy. Who’s Who’s the funniest guy on the team besides you? Ryan or her, bro? I think. Where’s Where’s Cowser rank on that list? Maybe third. Third because I’m number one. I’ll take that. I’ll take that. Okay. So, he’s That’s podium. Yeah, that’s podium finish. That’s a podium finish in bronze. Yeah. Yeah. I’d probably You’d probably think I’m funnier if our lockers were next to each other. I I told them. I know. I told it, bro. Cannot wait. You’re my mental skills coach. I think you guys got me on this one. You guys wanted me here. I I just got the invite like five minutes ago. Yeah. So, okay. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Dude, you got a question. You got Yeah. I just want to get The fans need to get to know you. They know us pretty good, but we need to get to know you. He’s not a shy guy. What was your favorite TV show as a kid? Teletubbies. I love The Office. The Office is my favorite show. You said The Office as a kid. I watched it when I was like 13. I don’t know. I mean, bro, I watched that like when I was in uh It makes sense for him to watch it at the office, bro. I watched it in like 2015, bro. 16. He would have been like 9 years old. He wasn’t like 9 years old, bro. Yeah, bro. Like what about like as a kid? Like a child? Like a cartoon? That’s nuts, bro. Like when you’re not a teen. Like a Disney show. Yeah, anything. Like I said, Teletubbies. They’re not going to embarrass you. And I like the backyard again. So why are you guys looking at me? What What was your favorite show? Well, I got to say my favorite show. Oh, you haven’t said your f your favorite show yet. Uh probably Euphoria when I was a kid. Euphoria. Yeah. Yeah. No, I’m kidding. Uh it was uh Avatar the Last Air Bender. Okay. I don’t know what that is, bro. Have you seen the cartoon the guy the bald guy who has pull haircut off? No, I don’t. No, you see Let me pull it up. I’m not a big TV person, though. I’m more like like I get home and I just like look at the window and wait for the next day. Well, that’s too much blue light. You don’t want to look at the TV. Exactly. Yeah. Well, I have my blue light glasses. This guy kind of looks like Jackson. If Jackson was bald and had an arrow on his head, that guy right there, right? Okay. Okay. You never seen that [ __ ] Great show. I’ve seen that, but like I watch it once. There’s a movie of that though. Yeah. It’s bad though. Don’t watch it. Yeah. Yeah. I don’t even remember either. Yeah, it’s bad. My uh I’m Dominican obviously. So I mean you’re pretty much American stuff that we didn’t you know maybe four years later we will get there. Okay. I watch uh Keen and Kale and that’s it. That’s all I had to watch. Did when whenever you would watch like those shows were they like did they help you with your English with nothing? They helped you with they help me to just entertain. Okay. myself. I didn’t know if it helps you like one like with English, you know. No, nothing. I didn’t know English until I was like 15. Okay. And I just knew like two curse words from my cousin. That’s all you need to know. That’s all I know in Spanish to be honest. And they were like, “Oh, okay. Is there someone baseball player or otherwise you have modeled your game after a baseball player? Yeah. Or otherwise?” I’m a big Trey Turner fan. Um Dang, not your dad. That’s crazy. I didn’t model my game after my dad. Probably more Trey Turner, Brandon Crawford, Cory Seager fans. Most Yeah, they’re still playing. Yeah. Well, cuz they were playing when you were like born. Yeah. Literally four years ago. Growing up, I watched a lot of Yario Molina and Pud Rodriguez with my dad. Okay. So, we’d like sit two great catchers. Yeah. My dad would like like uh record on like DVR games and then we’d go back and then if there were any steals like any throwouts we’d just like watch it on repeat together. Ry knew what he was doing. He did. He did. He knew he was doing visualization for me. Stop. Watch out. Yeah. Love that. I’d say growing up I was uh grew up watching the Astros when they had like the killer bees with like Burkeman, Beio, Bagwell. Watching Lance Burkeman play. I can see that. Yeah, I like Bergman. that. So, and I’ve got to hit with him a couple times since I got older. So, he’s tomorrow, I heard, bro. Yeah, he is. He’s cool, bro. Let’s hit with him, bro. Come on. Come out to Houston. Yeah, we can hit with whoever. Lance Bergman, bro. That’s a good good mentality, bro. Guy could rake. Uh, yeah. Both sides. That’s crazy. Who do you like? Uh, I like Bel, bro. M like the way he’s he was like his hitting way and the way that he went about his baseball too. Yeah. Bel go ahead Jackson. Have you ever been starruck in your career? Yeah. Whenever I met Adley Rutman. Thanks man. Appreciate that. It’s true. Didn’t know what to say. We were doing a COVID test. Dude, I don’t think in in not in the sports world. I don’t think I think I think it would take like a So who not in this who not in the sports world dude I met uh Sebastian Manaskcalo that was like Oh remind me of him bro. I I I uh I watch his stuff bro. Yeah. Yeah. He’s Yeah. He was awesome. Yeah. I just froze for the most part. You’ve been around people your whole life. Can’t be a baseball player. I haven’t gotten to meet um anybody really. When I met Derek Jeter as a kid, I was pretty starruck. Yeah, because my dad played with the Yankees. Um I think the most nervous I’d be to meet someone is probably Stephen Curry. I haven’t gotten to meet him, but that’s who I’d probably be. We were close. We’re saying hell. We were close. Yeah. One elevator ride away. Yeah. What? But what would you say to him if you saw him today? I don’t know, honestly. I have a signed jersey, but he probably doesn’t know that it was for me. If you like opened up the elevator at the same time and like I don’t know. That’s why I would probably be starruck. You probably wouldn’t say anything. I probably wouldn’t say anything. Say hi. That’s about it. Like, hey. Yeah. You want to get some coffee? Yeah. I mean, you literally Melo was at our game last year. Carmelo Anthony was at our game last year. Yeah. Like arguably like, you know, same caliber of a player. But weren’t y’all like neighbors? Yeah. He lives in well I don’t remember it but in Colorado he was neighbors with my parents. I mean this one just pops into my head but I wasn’t really starruck. It was just kind of random. Uh when I was leaving the restaurant the other day in New York uh Jamar Chase was walking in and I just didn’t say a word to him. I was just like oh. I just kind of stared there for a second and then I was like okay I need to continue on. But I held the door open for him. Did he say thank you? He did. Yeah he said thank you. What’ you say back? Uh you’re welcome. And then I ran. Good. Then I asked, “How many fantasy points are you gonna put up this year?” Was he on our team last year? No, I don’t think so. That’s probably where we went wrong. Uh mine was uh I met uh a one time. I was like, “Damn, bro. What’s up, bro?” Joe hit like when was it at? And he’s like, “What’s up, bro? My name is Alex. I’m M’s Ramo and we start talking hitting right away, bro. Dropping the knee down, hip down, bro. Oh, yeah. Weight shift, bro. Bro, so mechanics, bro. All mechanics. Yeah, all mechanics. No, no approach. Zero approach, bro. Guy trusted himself. And that’s it, bro. It was like five minutes. That’s pretty cool. I’d want to talk to him. I saw my dad get star shook by Michael Jordan one time. It was pretty funny. He walked into a restaurant and my dad like froze and it was like the first time I’d ever seen him like act like that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was pretty funny. That’s cool. That’s pretty cool, bro. You’re going to love this one. Okay. So, can you do the I make the face, you make the sound. So, like you make a face. So, you’d like make a face and I’d be like, “What’s the Bro, I’m not going to What? What the heck, bro? You just have to guess. I actually don’t. Actually, they put that in here. You know what it is, right? I’ve never heard of this. I know what it is. Go ahead. You know what it is? Yeah. Go ahead. You go make a face. Okay, Jackson. Go ahead. I’m good. You have to rush. Make a face. No, I think it’s between you and No, I’m the one asking the question. I decide to play. Make a face. Make a face. [Music] That’s crazy, bro. I’m not even, bro. That’s What’s the weirdest thing you’ve autographed, bro? I think uh a shoulder and that’s it, bro. A shoulder just Yeah, I think it’s ridiculous, bro. A shoulder, bro. How’d you feel about it? I was like, that’s interesting, but I got to go face Blander now. So, I got to focus on Berlander. And I struck out three times. And that’s basically And you blame that guy? I’d blame him. No, no, no, no. It just that just happens, you know. Yeah, that’s true. In uh Del Marva in Aberdeen, I signed the kid’s prosthetic leg. Same kid twice. Okay. And a banana. And also in Del Marva. I uh I was on a flight and this lady asked me to sign her her plane ticket with her I think it was her mascara. Whoa. She didn’t have a pen. She didn’t have a pen. No. So she’s like, “I don’t have a pen, but can you use this?” And it was her like I don’t know mascara thing. That’s weird. Yeah. Mine’s probably just like a phone case. Yeah, there’s a love behind that one. There’s a lot to unpack there. [Applause] [Music] Bro, it’s tough to play all 162 games in a season. How are you still helping the team on days when you’re not in the lineup, bro? How am I helping the team if you’re not in line? If I’m not playing like today. Mhm. Talking crap. That’s it. Love it. Perfect. That’s it. Staying ready. Love it. Being a good teammate, supporting your guys. Yeah. What does that mean? Basic answer. Okay. Help on if you faced the guy before that night or Yeah. Um just helping them, giving advice so they can be as prepared as possible. How do you feel like your communication skills are on a scale of 1 to 10? Getting better. You need to be better. giving like an approach or just like talking with people you probably need to ask Chloe how like right now like it just in general I don’t know like a seven okay what about texting texting oh I’m a terrible text so like say I have a question say in the offseason I like this your fantasy football partner is trying to make a move and like send you text he doesn’t talk to people bro and he’s trying to send you a text he responded to me Yeah. How how quickly do you get back to them? Well, it just depends on where you are. Yeah. Or what you’re doing, you know, like maybe working out or like on a trip or on Thanksgiving when we both forget. Yeah. We both forget on Thanksgiving. Things happen. There’s a game at PG too that that happens. Yeah. I had this off season or Bora Bora. That’s what it was. Yeah. Yeah. This offseason Trey called me. He’s like he’s like, “Hey, I’ve been texting Jackson for the last three weeks. He hasn’t responded to me. Has he responded to you?” I texted Jackson. I said, “Hey, how you doing?” 5 minutes later. “Good, dude. How are you doing?” I was like, “Sorry, Trey. You’re just uh you’re not as close with him, I guess.” I’m a bad texter. No, no, you’re good, though. Honestly, he’ll get back to you. It’s a good personality. Everyone will get back to you in the clubhouse eventually. Mhm. During season, I say it’s more prominent. Like you get texts back quicker, but like offseason like I get it. Like I don’t respond as good. What’s the best way to reach Jackson? Jackson. Oh, me probably FaceTime. Cal that method. Yeah, FaceTime. But like honestly, it depends who it is. Like a gunner, like if I FaceTime him, he won’t answer all the time, but if I call him normally, he’ll think it’s actually like urgent and I’m not just calling him to take up his time. So then if I really need to get a hold of him, I just do a normal phone call. Same thing with you. Honestly, really, you got better since you got a new phone number. I’ll say that. When you had your old phone number, it was impossible to And now that Game of Thrones is over. Game of Thrones? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You mean actually do a real outro real quick? Yeah. Okay. All right. Oh, we’re staying here. Yeah. Yeah. Thanks guys for watching the chill. Um, continue to tune in on the Orioles YouTube channel for uh more content like this. And uh go O’s.
