What's the meaning of "crazy idea, bad pitch"?
Hi, In the "Rick & Morty" TV series S01E01, Jerry said to his wife:
Whoa! What is this on the floor? Some kind of literature for a really nice-looking nursing home. Hey, honey, crazy idea bad pitch, let's put your dad here. Let's put your dad in a nursing home.
I understand the meaning of the whole sentence, but I can't understand the reason for using bad pitch after "crazy idea.." Is it phrasal verb or idiom?
English is not my first language
