Speaker 1: One of those things are looking up for you. When
Speaker 1: when are you going? Next year? Next year? So we're
Speaker 1: trying to get a good price, makes sense. I was.
Speaker 1: I screwed this up being of flights, looking at flights
Speaker 1: for my bachelor party in Fort Lauderdale. They've all gone up.
Speaker 1: This is a disaster. I thought cheap, there's raining for
Speaker 1: them to go down, and instead of going down, they
Speaker 1: went up. Uh, that's not working out well for you. Sorry,
Speaker 1: it's very bad. That's it. You gotta try earlier. So
Speaker 1: I was earlier. It was fine, So it was really mad.
Speaker 1: The week before I made a decision place where that's great, perfect,
Speaker 1: very happy round trip. Yeah, two hucks round trip, it's perfect.
Speaker 1: A week later, they're up to forty four. I'm like,
Speaker 1: this is a joke. Well you've been to do it
Speaker 1: now before they go up again. So then I waited
Speaker 1: and they were on to sixty six and like, this
Speaker 1: is stupid. Now the flights are empty because I'm literally
Speaker 1: looking at the seats on the flights that I want
Speaker 1: and they're empty. Empty, keep going trolling, you keep going up.
Speaker 1: Now they're up to two eight, and what is happening?
Speaker 1: I'm pissed. Now you might as well wait longer? Could
Speaker 1: you go back down? That's what I'm I don't know.
Speaker 1: I can't wait till it's three bills and then it's
Speaker 1: gonna sit here. What's happening? Three hundred Dollarsdale saved a
Speaker 1: couple of hundred because you're talking about two tickets. That's true. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's oh, you're gonna buy party, Okay. I didn't hear
Speaker 1: the bachelor party. Yeah, all right's baseball. How'd your How
Speaker 1: was your baseball weekend? Good? Yeah? Good? You know my
Speaker 1: boy went off ja yeah next week right when I
Speaker 1: drop getting hot, get drop Josh Bill. Yeah, he was
Speaker 1: getting intense to pick up till in pit league. Yeah,
Speaker 1: someone pick him up, it goes, I'm looking at the
Speaker 1: wrong league. I don't know. Well, I think that I
Speaker 1: think of Dandy, and I think of Dandy Andy. That's
Speaker 1: a good pick up. We should talk about Yandy d
Speaker 1: as a lot of people excited about him. A few
Speaker 1: people were asking us about Yandy DZ and the chapel
Speaker 1: and just look at Josh Yeah, big timer. I was
Speaker 1: listening and watching this who actually had to uh and
Speaker 1: him a little SmackDown last week? Actually second place team
Speaker 1: right here, it looks like I do know how to
Speaker 1: play in category leagues. After first, I mean, I'm in second.
Speaker 1: But regarding Yandy ds Greg, one of the first things
Speaker 1: that I told you today when I came in was
Speaker 1: Yandy's lifting the ball more. And that's exactly what we
Speaker 1: needed to see. Guy who always had a lot of power.
Speaker 1: He's built like a football player. He's jack out of
Speaker 1: his mind you see some of his off season workout
Speaker 1: stuff like the guy's huge look. He's like he's Sespedous
Speaker 1: esque and in terms of how big is and you know,
Speaker 1: coming into the year, he has a twenty two percent
Speaker 1: fly ball rate this year, small sample size again, thirty
Speaker 1: eight late appearances, but a thirty three percent fly ball rate,
Speaker 1: so one third of the time that he's making contact,
Speaker 1: he's putting it in the air, and he's hitting the
Speaker 1: ball extremely hard to start the year. So you're seeing
Speaker 1: that reflected in his stats. Every three batting average seems
Speaker 1: again its pretty good plays discipline too, greg because he's
Speaker 1: walking thirteen percent at a time, making a ton of contact,
Speaker 1: he's striking out only eight percent at a time. He's
Speaker 1: hitting three hundred and against leftist he's leading off, and
Speaker 1: against right he's still in the middle of the lineup.
Speaker 1: So what's not to like about Yandy Diaz? And I
Speaker 1: don't know if I would have dropped Josh Bell for him,
Speaker 1: because I see the appeal with Bell, and you know,
Speaker 1: he's been hot already to start the year, and mind you,
Speaker 1: that's in Pittsburgh all the weather. You know, the weather
Speaker 1: has warmed up a little bit. But for the most part,
Speaker 1: it's still been I don't know if it would have
Speaker 1: done that. I would like to add Yandy Diaz. I
Speaker 1: don't know if it would have dropped Josh Bell, but
Speaker 1: if he's out there, even in your twelve team leagues,
Speaker 1: I I would try and get your dash and I
Speaker 1: made a call and I did it. Ye both. I
Speaker 1: thought could potentially be really good this year, so it
Speaker 1: might not be a bad move for you. Right personally
Speaker 1: made it, But I would like to try and add
Speaker 1: y d As if I can. Yeah, definitely. The only
Speaker 1: thing I see issue with Yandy in ESPN leagues he's
Speaker 1: a d H only, which is kind of annoying. Really, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that should change, right, It's interesting if he gets ten
Speaker 1: games in the outfield, his eligibility should change. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: think that's Let's see on the year, he has three
Speaker 1: games at first base and he's already got six at third,
Speaker 1: So in my league it's only only five games, So okay,
Speaker 1: he has third, and it looks like he should he's
Speaker 1: very quickly. You're gonna get first base eligibility as well
Speaker 1: because he gains left handed pitching and I'm gonna play
Speaker 1: g Manchoi and they play Yandy Das. While we're on
Speaker 1: the topic of conversation of the Rays. Remember I kept
Speaker 1: telling you guys before the season, Nate low remember the
Speaker 1: name Nathaniel Lowe. If he's available in your lead, this
Speaker 1: is a deeper play and al only brand. Maybe you're right,
Speaker 1: but he had his second home run ready, and I
Speaker 1: have a feeling that the Rays didn't have him break
Speaker 1: camp just because they want to get the extra service
Speaker 1: time out of him, and they could have. You know,
Speaker 1: it's easier for them to sell that because you know
Speaker 1: they like g Man choice. But it's like, I don't
Speaker 1: know how long Man Choi is gonna last. You know,
Speaker 1: the starting first baseman gets right handed pitching. But this guy,
Speaker 1: Nate low last yeas year for the race in the
Speaker 1: minor leagues between Double A and Triple A and High A.
Speaker 1: He so he progressed from High eight to Triple A
Speaker 1: in one minor league season. It's twenty seven home runs
Speaker 1: with a hundred and two art guys, three thirty batting
Speaker 1: average p s. He's already off to a good start.
Speaker 1: I think it won't be long before Nate Low is
Speaker 1: in the major leagues for the Tampa Bay Race. Years old,
Speaker 1: You're gonna have a sick lineup man, Tommy Fan, Yandy Diaz,
Speaker 1: Austin's Nate Low Ran Low they got, they got a
Speaker 1: little sneaky line up man. I like Tampa Bay, remember
Speaker 1: the name. I'm just telling you that I'm in on
Speaker 1: Yandy for sure, though Yandy is definitely a good one.
Speaker 1: Did you make any bids over the weekend venture? Um? Up?
Speaker 1: Would I pick up? I picked up Frankie Mantas a lot,
Speaker 1: of course, even with the astro start, the astro start
Speaker 1: I watched actually uh and he was good. It was
Speaker 1: just that that line up is good. Uh. Al TV scored.
Speaker 1: They scored the first round. Often when al TV check
Speaker 1: swinged and hit the infield single was short in the hole, like,
Speaker 1: come on, it wasn't a good hit. And then you
Speaker 1: know Bregman had a nice hit and then he gave
Speaker 1: up another run. He wasn't that bad. He got into
Speaker 1: trouble and got out of it. Um. He still had
Speaker 1: a strikeout for any against the five strikeouts in five innings,
Speaker 1: and he had six strikeouts in six innings in his
Speaker 1: first start. Yeah, a strikeout for penning from on top
Speaker 1: right and the second start, honestly, impressed me more because
Speaker 1: of the lineup and because of the tough situations, even
Speaker 1: in basic loaded situations. I also picked up Christian Walker
Speaker 1: in one place, Clint Frasier for for a daily league.
Speaker 1: For the meantime. Who you've been dropping anyone of note?
Speaker 1: Um lords, Gorrielle, I think it's fair. Yeah, he's one
Speaker 1: of the most dropped players in CBS. Makes sense, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm dropping him. Um, I had Tyler White. I didn't
Speaker 1: really want him, but I had him for a while,
Speaker 1: and now I dropped him. Okay, okay with that too,
Speaker 1: in the right situation. Yeah, yours nobody else really? Oh,
Speaker 1: Luke Weaver, I dropped That's who I dropped to pick
Speaker 1: up Frankie Montas in one league. I'm dropping Weaving and
Speaker 1: I'm dropping Strong, dropping Weaver and Strong. So I'm glad
Speaker 1: you bring up Weaver and Stroup. Strong one of the
Speaker 1: most dropped players as well, So I think it's fair.
Speaker 1: I think it's fair to bring him up. So we
Speaker 1: were will start there because the first one you mentioned
Speaker 1: two starts, two dots of great stars. His last one
Speaker 1: a little bit better. Three runs, five hits over five
Speaker 1: innings against the Red Sox and a tough matchup this
Speaker 1: week home against San Diego, who you know better than
Speaker 1: the used to be not a bad matchup, but I
Speaker 1: don't think at home with the even do it right? No,
Speaker 1: it's just a man. Yeah, I agree that. I agree.
Speaker 1: Shrug at three in his first down and struck out
Speaker 1: four in his second. Okay, okay, dropping And it's only
Speaker 1: two starts, which is a very small sample size. Seven
Speaker 1: were kay to walk ratio? Like how many weeks I
Speaker 1: would like to hold onto him? The skills don't look
Speaker 1: good as of right now. That's what is really small.
Speaker 1: But seven percent swinging strike rate, first pitch strike percentage
Speaker 1: percent chase rate, so people aren't chasing his pitches, which
Speaker 1: is leading to the walks. As you mentioned, Greg, he
Speaker 1: only has seven strike as he has four walks in
Speaker 1: nine and a third endings pitched. Would you say you
Speaker 1: dropped him for one league mantas, Yeah, I would have.
Speaker 1: I would have made that move to I also picked
Speaker 1: up that I had him in a lot of leagues
Speaker 1: because I want to believe that we was, you know,
Speaker 1: the prospect. We thought he was right, but it doesn't look.
Speaker 1: One thing that really bothers me about him is that
Speaker 1: he's not going deep into games either, and I need
Speaker 1: I like to have guys that could at least, you know,
Speaker 1: pitching five six cent you get me quality start um.
Speaker 1: And I also picked up a turn bull your boy
Speaker 1: against the Indians, though well, I mean, I'm picking I
Speaker 1: don't know if I'm plugging him in right away, but
Speaker 1: if you're picking him up, you gotta plug him unless
Speaker 1: you have like five superstar pitchers. Because against the any
Speaker 1: it just doesn't get better than that. Why they're playing
Speaker 1: right now again, they lead baseball in strikeouts right now,
Speaker 1: and that's a turnable coming off a start. We had
Speaker 1: ten strikeouts against the Royals, a team that typically makes
Speaker 1: a lot of contact. So I think that there's a
Speaker 1: lot to like. They're just getting back to Luke Weaver.
Speaker 1: I'm looking into him a little bit more. Greg. Remember
Speaker 1: the reason why we liked him was because we read
Speaker 1: an article on the Athletic that's saying that he was
Speaker 1: working on a curveball. About this, he's storing his curveball
Speaker 1: less is here than he was last year eight percent
Speaker 1: of the time and last year was twelve percent of
Speaker 1: the time. I don't love that. And the command hasn't
Speaker 1: been good. Yeah, Like I'm al right dropping for these
Speaker 1: guys that we're talking about, Turnbull, even Zimmerman on a
Speaker 1: two start week. You know, if people seem to be
Speaker 1: split on Zimmerman, I think a lot of people have
Speaker 1: been burned by him, so they don't really want to
Speaker 1: buy back in the Jordan Zimmerman. And I can't knock
Speaker 1: you like if that's the reason. If you've been burned
Speaker 1: by Jordan Zimmerman and you just don't want to pick
Speaker 1: him up, I'm fine with that. Me personally, I haven't
Speaker 1: been burned by him, so I actually do like him
Speaker 1: for this two start a week again against the Indians
Speaker 1: and against the Minnesota Twins. Don't love the Twins start.
Speaker 1: But he is doing things differently with his arsenal. He's
Speaker 1: throwing his breaking pitches more. He's throwing his fastball less.
Speaker 1: It's additioned by subtraction. It's fastball has been one of
Speaker 1: the worst pitches in baseball over the past couple of years.
Speaker 1: So I like I like those like those Tigers guys
Speaker 1: over over Weaver, I would I would make that well.
Speaker 1: The only thing with me is with demand is that
Speaker 1: uh and I discussed this with Steve the other day.
Speaker 1: Also I was like, I think, like he's had two
Speaker 1: or three years now where he's been pretty much bad, terrible, terrible.
Speaker 1: I wrote about this on my Patreon over the past.
Speaker 1: Since he during the Tigers, he has the second highest
Speaker 1: era A among all starting pitchers, behind only James Shields
Speaker 1: is the A over five. So he's not been good exactly,
Speaker 1: and then I can't defend that. And we're not talking
Speaker 1: one year, we're talking a few years now. Uh, he's
Speaker 1: not the same guy he was. I don't think there's
Speaker 1: a resurgent season coming back for him this year just
Speaker 1: because he had two good sults so far. That's my thing.
Speaker 1: I'm not buying into it yet. And I think it's
Speaker 1: okay that I don't pick him up because I feel
Speaker 1: like if someone does pick him up, pick him up
Speaker 1: with the two stocks and then drop him so I
Speaker 1: could always get him again if I decide I want
Speaker 1: him later on. I'm just not sold on him yet.
Speaker 1: I'm not sold on on him being this good yet.
Speaker 1: That's fair, that's fair. And he's gone through stretches in
Speaker 1: the past few years where he looks like he's good
Speaker 1: and then he just smucks down again. So I think
Speaker 1: as long as he's throwing that fastball last and throwing
Speaker 1: a slider and curveball. More and more apt to buy
Speaker 1: in on Jordan's immiman. I'm not saying he's gonna be great,
Speaker 1: but I just really like streaming against Cleveland Indians right now. Greg,
Speaker 1: someone who does have a tough matchup this week. Is
Speaker 1: there something else you wanted to get into it, Weaver?
Speaker 1: I want to hit strang because you meant you mentioned
Speaker 1: strong ventro and you bound that first down in two
Speaker 1: and two thirds he was. He was horrible last and
Speaker 1: against Cardinals five innings, two rounds, only one of them
Speaker 1: were earned. It was basically all unun for his fault anyway,
Speaker 1: but only with five in he only struck out two guys.
Speaker 1: And A's why people are jumping off board, Frank, how
Speaker 1: come strikeouts are down right now? From Matt stram I
Speaker 1: how people were excited? It's the velocity. You look at
Speaker 1: the velocity right now, and in years past, I know
Speaker 1: he was used more as a reliever, and you know,
Speaker 1: maybe your velocity takes down a little bit when you
Speaker 1: get put back in the rotation. But the past couple
Speaker 1: of years he's been around fastball. Greg. This year is
Speaker 1: fastball sitting at ninety one point three miles per hour
Speaker 1: on average, so the VLO is down. The slider vlo
Speaker 1: is also down last year's eighties seven miles per hour.
Speaker 1: This year it's down to eighty four. Again. This might
Speaker 1: be because he's back in the rotation, so can he
Speaker 1: can he amp it up? Kenny throw as hard as
Speaker 1: he wants to, When normally in a relief appearance you
Speaker 1: can kind of go all out because you're only going
Speaker 1: one or two innings. He probably just can't get the
Speaker 1: velo that high if he wants to sustain going five
Speaker 1: or six innings pitched. So I think that's why you're seeing,
Speaker 1: uh the lack of strikeouts here from Matt Trump And
Speaker 1: so that coupled with the fact that he's not really
Speaker 1: going deep into games either right so far, and I
Speaker 1: think that's gonna be a problem most season for him
Speaker 1: because he is coming from the bullpen. So I'm not
Speaker 1: trusting that this is the back end of my rotation
Speaker 1: fantasy type of guy. So I'm okay with dropping him
Speaker 1: and picking up a guy like Frankie Mantas or these
Speaker 1: other guys. Talk about Spencer Turnbull, I wouldn't I would
Speaker 1: have done that as well. I don't want to completely
Speaker 1: give up. I don't want to team leagues like maybe
Speaker 1: I would try and hold on again. I like Mantas,
Speaker 1: I like Turnbull, so I probably would have done it
Speaker 1: for those guys, but anyone else that's just like a
Speaker 1: fringe e like I'm not don't hold on to Strom
Speaker 1: for now? Would you drop drop Strom for Nick marka Vicious?
Speaker 1: Not even kidding? No, I wouldn't. Okay, Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: Stram has higher upside and and Strong and Weaver. They
Speaker 1: actually face each other this week, so how about that?
Speaker 1: Yeah that's funny. You guys were all Arizona against Luke.
Speaker 1: What have I told you that Nick marka Vicious? Mrs No,
Speaker 1: he misses St. Louis and he places in San Francisco,
Speaker 1: which is great. You really just need to start or
Speaker 1: I'm not thinking. I'm just I'm just asking. It's just
Speaker 1: like stashing for upside, I'm planning in San Francisco. I
Speaker 1: still think that Strong has more upside than market Vicious.
Speaker 1: You just need to start this week then, yeah, I
Speaker 1: would rather stream against the Giants and at Arizona the Vicious, right.
Speaker 1: I want to I want to ask you about Jack
Speaker 1: Flowery when we come back faces the Dodgers. Yeah, let's
Speaker 1: do it. What's up at Jack Flowerday? Moore On the
Speaker 1: other side, nick a Vicious. Maid Sailors is the leading

Speaker 1: Finally it's the strap greggyment moment to night match. The
Speaker 1: night it was it was beautiful. What a terrible ending too.
Speaker 1: It's like so much potential with the women's match and
Speaker 1: ends on a box. I don't That wasn't supposed to happen, right,
Speaker 1: It was not the box. Obviously it was supposed to
Speaker 1: end that pin was supposed to end. There was what
Speaker 1: was the box. It's so basically Rhonda Rousy had Becky
Speaker 1: on her shoulders for a move and Becky reversed it
Speaker 1: to like a pinning combination hitting Rhonda rousing. So that
Speaker 1: was supposed to be the end of the match one,
Speaker 1: two three, and it was the problem was when the
Speaker 1: red kind of one, Rhonda shoulders were just she was
Speaker 1: basically sitting up, so her shoulders, shoulders weren't on the match.
Speaker 1: So then they did the two three when her shoulders
Speaker 1: were on the map, and it was controversial. It was
Speaker 1: controversial when it wasn't. I don't know if it was
Speaker 1: supposed to be. How do you know for sure that
Speaker 1: was supposed to be the ending? Forever they are bread? Well,
Speaker 1: what about the tweet that floral sentence? Yeah he's not.
Speaker 1: Sean Ross was good, sap, He's good, but not as
Speaker 1: in the know as some other people. I believe I
Speaker 1: trust more. All right, Well, it was still crap regardless,
Speaker 1: that's very bad. Could and a lot of people like
Speaker 1: the results of the matches. They like who won at WrestleMania, Like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, we had Rawlins, Kofy and Becky Lynch
Speaker 1: all went on the same car, and wow, this is
Speaker 1: one of the greatest WrestleMania's matches were bad. The Kope
Speaker 1: match was great. The Kope match was great. MS vers
Speaker 1: sane I seem like mixed reactions. I actually kind of
Speaker 1: liked it, Like the spots were really cool. It was
Speaker 1: a lost count anywhere, so they did something like pretty
Speaker 1: like around the State Adium Triple Asian Batista again actually
Speaker 1: did some cool stuff, but like, way too long on
Speaker 1: the match for these old guys. Yeah they're too old. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and um like Seth Rollins was cool or in versus
Speaker 1: AJ Styles was cool, but like none of the matches.
Speaker 1: They were fine, but they didn't like stand out the show.
Speaker 1: I went to New Japan Saturday night at MSG and
Speaker 1: that was amazing, dude, Like the matches were awesome, and
Speaker 1: Friday n XC the matches were awesome as well. It's
Speaker 1: just like I don't even know how WrestleMania follows up
Speaker 1: after a weekend of that type of action. Greg's problem
Speaker 1: so bad. It's still like they still very much so
Speaker 1: appeal to just like the entertainment side of things, and
Speaker 1: like I guess pleasing kids more so, what I want
Speaker 1: to see is this really good wrestling matches, And yeah,
Speaker 1: they just really weren't. How long are these like, because
Speaker 1: I like the long matches, Like the best match that
Speaker 1: comes to mind to me is Sean Michael's verse Bread
Speaker 1: Hart in that Iron Iron was one of the best
Speaker 1: matches ever him like that, Like I love those type
Speaker 1: of matches. They need to be a little longer, I feel.
Speaker 1: And the card was so like so stacked so many
Speaker 1: matches that towards the end they had to rush everything,
Speaker 1: so like you know, these guys only got like seven
Speaker 1: eight minutes like finn ballor match was like less than
Speaker 1: ten minutes long, yea, and like it could have been
Speaker 1: better than that. Um, I think Kofe and Daniel Bryan
Speaker 1: probably had the most time, right, I think Triple H
Speaker 1: and Batist that the most time. Probably true, but it
Speaker 1: was close. But like the Kofe and Daniel Bryan, they
Speaker 1: had enough time and it was perfect minutes. But actually
Speaker 1: I actually thought Brian was going to kick out of
Speaker 1: the trouble in Paradise and we keep going a little
Speaker 1: bit longer. But I was okay that he didn't. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like when when't underwhelming for me? Greg? When Kofe kicked
Speaker 1: out of the knee and that was cool. Yep, that
Speaker 1: was awesome because the knee, I don't know what anyone's
Speaker 1: kicked out of a bit, so it's awesome. Yeah. The
Speaker 1: a j Orton match underwhelmed too. I remember we said Friday,
Speaker 1: we thought that could see the show. It didn't. It didn't.
Speaker 1: I would like to see the Shanel mac Oh. You
Speaker 1: should check out the bump that he did. I feel
Speaker 1: like he's the best, like getting thrown through tables and
Speaker 1: stuff like. Yeah, so they so they went like a
Speaker 1: scaffolding and he got superlexed off that was cool. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like landing on the sting and they both go through it.
Speaker 1: But what happened was because of the way they landed,
Speaker 1: shiman Man actually landed on top of the miss so
Speaker 1: we won the matched. That's how he won the match.
Speaker 1: I called I called it. I wish I bet on that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you had, right, you had, SHANEO mac as, you're upset
Speaker 1: of the night. What did I have? I think I
Speaker 1: had the iconics. Yeah, both of our both of our upsets.
Speaker 1: Well that college really second favorite, we said, right, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah it was the girls. Was there something else? Was
Speaker 1: there another upset that happened with us? Right? I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't think so, because Brock Kofe and Rock Kofe
Speaker 1: and Becky all won Alkins a rider. But I don't
Speaker 1: know if the betting odds are are on that. Well,
Speaker 1: I would think KOFEE winning is kofe Kofe Kofee winning
Speaker 1: is an upset? No, because other story was headed Yeah
Speaker 1: yeah it was anything I mean And good point from
Speaker 1: Perry here in the chat says everyone knew KOFE was
Speaker 1: gonna win as they were least the cow W Championship
Speaker 1: t shirt. Halfway through the match, I guess that must
Speaker 1: have happened on like w W dot com. But you
Speaker 1: said you knew because they came out with a present beforehand,
Speaker 1: and I knew based on the video package beforehand, like
Speaker 1: this is his dream and like to me, they're appealing
Speaker 1: to kids, like they're not gonna like try and shoot
Speaker 1: down like a kid's dream. To me, they brought out
Speaker 1: a present and they showed a podium that was covered
Speaker 1: with something. What could the compodium be covered with other
Speaker 1: than the title? So they ruined that. Yeah, they got
Speaker 1: they need new writers for the stories. They just need
Speaker 1: better presentation the writers. I'm better actors maybe, Greg. I
Speaker 1: asked you before the break Jack Flaherty, who faces the
Speaker 1: Dodgers this week. And the Dodgers are amazing what they've
Speaker 1: done so far this year. I mean, their lineup has
Speaker 1: been great. They are second in baseball with eighty four
Speaker 1: run scored. They actually had the highest team ops. Cody
Speaker 1: Boinger has just been phenomenal with their whole you're doing
Speaker 1: an event, by the way, what please do in the
Speaker 1: main event. I think I'm in the third or fourth
Speaker 1: in my league. I don't know about the overall. I'm
Speaker 1: about overall yet about third or fourth year league. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: and thenn um, well, okay, I don't have Jack Flaberty
Speaker 1: in the main event, team, Greg, I was just asking
Speaker 1: about Jack Flaherty because I have Cody Bellinger in the
Speaker 1: main event. That's why you mentioned Bellinger. Going on, why
Speaker 1: I asked you? But regarding Flaherty, did you bench him
Speaker 1: against the Dodgers this week? Gig, he's at home? No,
Speaker 1: you're just leaving him in? All right, Well it was
Speaker 1: very very quick answer. All right, venture, how about you
Speaker 1: for who? How about Yanni Tournos Toronto Blue Jays? You
Speaker 1: do that, it's getting cute. Well, I'm going to tell
Speaker 1: you something that I'm about that I'm probably gonna do.
Speaker 1: I'm doing a similar thing, and you tell me if
Speaker 1: I should do this. I'm benching Zach Wheeler for uh
Speaker 1: Matt Boyd. Boyd at home against Cleveland would do it.
Speaker 1: So it's funny to me. It's kind of similar. Ob
Speaker 1: Jack correct, it's different because Jack Flaherty get blown up
Speaker 1: in his first start seven walks. Well, he allowed four
Speaker 1: earned runs. Okay, four runs, four earned runs, very very
Speaker 1: different in my opinion, or runs he had a It
Speaker 1: was a three run bombs and Braun and then one
Speaker 1: other run. All right, he walked nobody in that start, yes,
Speaker 1: struck out four. Okay. In the next start he allowed
Speaker 1: no runs. He struck out six. Does he walk anybody?
Speaker 1: Had two walks? Not bad though. It's a good st
Speaker 1: stop at all, at at all to me. Jack Flaherty's
Speaker 1: pitched well enough that you drafted him to be RSP two.
Speaker 1: But it's either him or ty Own. Those are my seconds,
Speaker 1: whatever you're saying. The third starters, tyn Up going to
Speaker 1: dagainst Cubs and and Jack Flawery second start against at
Speaker 1: Cubs at Washington. So it's not great damn Um and Flaherty.
Speaker 1: I I don't want to so I know how hot
Speaker 1: the Dodgers has been. Flowerty at home where you drafted him.
Speaker 1: Not but I care so much about that. He wasn't
Speaker 1: He hasn't gotten blown off that we're at the point
Speaker 1: where you bend him. It's not in cores either, right,
Speaker 1: you know it's actually at home in St. Louis, which
Speaker 1: is good, Which is fine. Well, bend Jack Flowery for
Speaker 1: as well as streaming, I understand. I think that's getting
Speaker 1: a little bit cute. The Zach Wheeler thing. The Zach
Speaker 1: Wheeler thing. I think it's legit. Frank and I have him.
Speaker 1: So Frank and I had this argument with Floria this morning.
Speaker 1: You're just joining us. We wanted to bench Zack Wheeler
Speaker 1: for Spencer Turnbull. I know I heard you. Yeah, Modica
Speaker 1: said for turn About. Yes. No, he said no, He's like,
Speaker 1: you can't do that. I thought he said Montas No, okay,
Speaker 1: he said, you can't do it for Zach Wheeler. If
Speaker 1: I'm you, hell yeah, boyd who has been one of
Speaker 1: the hottest and can a ton of people that doesn't
Speaker 1: bother me nearly as much as that one will bother Yeah,
Speaker 1: I would start Flowerty. I think I think Greg sold
Speaker 1: me on that I would start. Frank, I still have
Speaker 1: him on the bench for Yannis right there, we got time, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: I have about thirty minutes, forty minutes. Wait, all the
Speaker 1: whole one blocks, the whole thing locks. ESPN changed to
Speaker 1: where only the game. That's how it should be. Absolutely much.
Speaker 1: Lawyers who are playing in the early game should be locked,
Speaker 1: and everything else exactly. You have so much other news
Speaker 1: things that come out, like what if David Dolls back
Speaker 1: in the lineup and you want to throw him in there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well that's right. Now, that's a good segway to what
Speaker 1: do you do with David doll if you're in a
Speaker 1: weekly league and you gotta plug in where bench from
Speaker 1: from rymel Tapia, which might end up being a terrible decision,
Speaker 1: but I have to make my decision before. So as
Speaker 1: of right now, what I know is he's dealing with
Speaker 1: no bleak. But you haven't seen anything else regarding David
Speaker 1: Doll so and he has a history of oblique injuries.
Speaker 1: I'm kind of worried about it. Yeah, no, I know,
Speaker 1: and especially if you know weekly, if if this guy
Speaker 1: misses a C series, I kill That'll kill you. That'll
Speaker 1: kill you. You don't want that totally. I would have
Speaker 1: to start Byron Buckston in his place. That's my that's
Speaker 1: my thing. I don't know. You gotta Starbucks. I think
Speaker 1: it's safe. It's only played five games this week and
Speaker 1: the Rockies play seven, but Doll they have zero. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what about Tim Beckham? Is he gonna play? Why wouldn't
Speaker 1: he hurt her last night? Day to day Beckham got hurt? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't even see that one. Yeah, it's Beckham got hurt.
Speaker 1: Left the game last night. It could be a problem,
Speaker 1: that could be an issue, and he's been. He's been
Speaker 1: for real, So it's dollar dollar is Beckham's injury? Beckham
Speaker 1: it was a quad, I'll tell you right now, dealing
Speaker 1: with somebody's game against the White Sox now too though
Speaker 1: in that game, and it says the severity of the
Speaker 1: injury remains unclear. There you go, everything's unclear answers. I
Speaker 1: got a good question regarding before the show started. Okay,
Speaker 1: so the Reds only played five games this week, and
Speaker 1: there's a chance that yell Peet hit with a suspension
Speaker 1: based on the benches clearing incident yesterday. So what do
Speaker 1: you do with so again, it matters like who for right, Like,
Speaker 1: I don't think you can answer that. Would you mention
Speaker 1: him for a seven game j Bruce? Yes, for a
Speaker 1: seven game boom boom man seen because those those my
Speaker 1: realistic options. Yea, yeah, totally fairly. Gotta figure he's going
Speaker 1: to be suspended at least a couple of games, right,
Speaker 1: which he'll appeal. You don't think so, I think he
Speaker 1: make it one. I think he didn't punch a guy
Speaker 1: out right, he took a swing, context, I don't think so.
Speaker 1: Yeah much like he's done in baseball this year. Took
Speaker 1: a swing and didn't make it. An there's the other issue.
Speaker 1: He hasn't been so that's another thing. Yeah, to answer
Speaker 1: the fire. Look, normally, if there was no suspension looming,
Speaker 1: I would just leave Peak in my lineup because we
Speaker 1: all have averages like he's gonna get that. What that
Speaker 1: says you're gonna get? Don't just don't bench him? You know,
Speaker 1: miss again, if you worry about the suspension, especially if
Speaker 1: I play in the Points League, I need volume any
Speaker 1: guys that are gonna play right, so you know j
Speaker 1: Bruce seven games, traight Man seen seven games, Alex Gordon
Speaker 1: seven games as opposed to pos playing only three four
Speaker 1: This peek peek venture woe is the one that's yeah,
Speaker 1: coffee kings. It could be pronounced a lot of different things.
Speaker 1: We don't have to talk about coffee kingson much. That's right,
Speaker 1: coffee and probably coffee like coffee. Probably most people do.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't either, I don't. How do you
Speaker 1: say coffee? Coffee cofie cofiefie, p w e e g
Speaker 1: venturo Okay, right, I can't even spill out coffee because
Speaker 1: it's just it just can't out fine, I throws f f.
Speaker 1: I alright, that'd be coffee. Yeah, that's what I was.
Speaker 1: It was okay, alright, CoFe. There you go, Cofie. And
Speaker 1: who's feeling on the Reds book? He gave us the
Speaker 1: pooty big Pig a week. I mean, come on, it's
Speaker 1: so it's close close, Uh, Frank, I think it's a
Speaker 1: really fair question. Um. I think if I played the
Speaker 1: band Boom Boom, I would I would bench Pleak for
Speaker 1: some of these seven game opens. I would too, just
Speaker 1: because of the safety of knowing that he's gonna play
Speaker 1: and stuff. And J Bruce has been hot. I like
Speaker 1: that one too. I'd plug Jay Bruce right in. Jay
Speaker 1: Bruce has been hot. He didn't play us. You know
Speaker 1: who else is hot in the Mariners. The entire Mariners
Speaker 1: lineup has been awesome. But vogel Bach, what do you
Speaker 1: guys make of Dan vogel back here, who's been red hot?
Speaker 1: But where is he gonna play? That's the problem because
Speaker 1: they have Bruce and they have an't Karinacione, so first
Speaker 1: base in DH is kind of locked up. They can't
Speaker 1: use J. Bruce in the outfield. But that hurts their
Speaker 1: outfield defense. Then he's gonna rotate. He's gonna rotated. And now, yeah,
Speaker 1: so does that affect Incarnacio and Bruce, Like maybe Bruce
Speaker 1: has seven games, but is he gonna play every day
Speaker 1: at least five? Yeah? I think he's probably basic at
Speaker 1: least six. And it's vogo Box is a lefty two.
Speaker 1: So it's not like they get have to say, all right, well,
Speaker 1: bench j Bruce against lefties because vogo Box is a
Speaker 1: lefty as well, typically has struggled against him. I'm not buying,
Speaker 1: but he's been awesome man, even like people who have
Speaker 1: been expecting him to be good for a long time. Now, Guys,
Speaker 1: I remember Box. I mean three multi hit games in
Speaker 1: a row, but he's played one, he sat out one,
Speaker 1: he's played when he sat out one, and then he
Speaker 1: played yesterday. But he has four home runs in his
Speaker 1: last three games play. He's six RBIs yesterday. The way
Speaker 1: that this matter's line up is playing. Any interest in
Speaker 1: Dan voge Box, Yeah, vogo Box just got picked up
Speaker 1: in deeper daily transactionsly like I could see it because
Speaker 1: because you can just plug him in when he's gonna play.
Speaker 1: I want to say he got picked in my Holy
Speaker 1: I think, which is daily tens. Actually he did. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: Bok has just been scorching hot. Um. I don't love
Speaker 1: that he hits seventh eighth in the lineup on most nights.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter when your lineup is as good as
Speaker 1: the Marriagers, right when you're hitting home run every day. Also,
Speaker 1: it also doesn't matter, honestly, but I think in the
Speaker 1: daily transaction league, as long as you have another first
Speaker 1: basement to put in there when he's not going to play,
Speaker 1: I'll do with it. I don't want I don't want
Speaker 1: to just have to throw him in there and set
Speaker 1: and forget. Yeah, you don't want him obviously, you're not
Speaker 1: picking him up in a weekly league and in the
Speaker 1: shallow twelve team league only. I mean he should be owned, Yes, deeply.
Speaker 1: A few people were aggressive on him last night. Me personally,
Speaker 1: I wasn't just because I frankly, I can't worry about
Speaker 1: the playing time. Maybe later on in the year, if
Speaker 1: it turns out that the Mariners revert back to being
Speaker 1: the Mariners and they you know, trade away guys like
Speaker 1: Incarnacione and and and J Bruston, Yeah he's gonna play
Speaker 1: every day at that point. Sure, Like I'll love him
Speaker 1: if he plays every day, but I don't think it's
Speaker 1: gonna happen right now. It's not only that too, it's
Speaker 1: that you know, we're definitely buying this or is just
Speaker 1: him just being hot right now? You know, we know
Speaker 1: Voge has been around for a while, He's got his
Speaker 1: opportunities before. He's done well with opportunity, had an opportunity
Speaker 1: to play every day, not every but he's been he
Speaker 1: has played in this He had a lineup you know,
Speaker 1: in the past, and had streaks where he's been hot
Speaker 1: and played a lot, and then he's also gotten really cold.
Speaker 1: This is a Nando guy too, right, Absolutely, seventh career
Speaker 1: hitter in the miners, seventy nine career ops. Like, he's
Speaker 1: a good player in the minors. Last year twenty homers,
Speaker 1: year before that seventeen, the year before that twenty three
Speaker 1: walks a lot to He's basically a carbon copy of
Speaker 1: Kyle Schwarber. Total. He actually is in the American League
Speaker 1: where they have the d h correct so you know,
Speaker 1: people were actually drafting Schwarber as their what fourth fifth outfielder.
Speaker 1: No one's drafting Dan Vogel Box. Swarber doesn't play against lefties.
Speaker 1: He only plays against right He's I mean he could,
Speaker 1: like I think their value is actually, you know, pretty
Speaker 1: close to being similar. Yeah, I mean I agree. I
Speaker 1: think you should be picked up in deeper leagues, but
Speaker 1: like in shallow leagues and stuff like that. Weekly not yet, yeah,
Speaker 1: like I have. I haven't even thought about adding him
Speaker 1: in any of Like home, We're gonna go over some
Speaker 1: weekend stuff. Um when we came back. Gary Sanchez is scary,
Speaker 1: Zach Efflyn, I'm more, Rob Ryan McMahon worth conversation. We'll

Speaker 1: NFL three sixty five Fantasy Football package. A bell right
Speaker 1: now over Rhado Experience dot Com. All right, I said
Speaker 1: going to break that. One of the guys I wanted
Speaker 1: to bring up was my man Frankie zack Eflyn, who
Speaker 1: was pitched twelve innings. He's a lout of one run
Speaker 1: that was a leadoff home run Adam Fraser. I believe
Speaker 1: maybe We didn't make that up, No, it was. It's
Speaker 1: in Minnesota, so that's that's not possible. Kel Kepler was
Speaker 1: the Kepler at home rightly Keler Max Kepler. It's a
Speaker 1: home run. Other than that, Elin has been a fantastic
Speaker 1: fourteen strikeouts through twelve innings in his first two starts.
Speaker 1: Right we were high on Ethlyn coming into the year.
Speaker 1: Is what he's doing ant sa sustainable because it's not,
Speaker 1: but Okny, keep it going. Yeah, I'm excited about zak
Speaker 1: eflyn Um. I really like the fourteen of one strikeout
Speaker 1: to walk ratio. Obviously, the swinging strike. Swinging strikes are
Speaker 1: up this year. He's up at eleven percent the first
Speaker 1: pitch strike percentage Greg so working ahead of the count
Speaker 1: a lot of the time is zach eflin first pitch
Speaker 1: strike percentage. So he's pounding the strike zone early, maybe
Speaker 1: when hitters aren't expecting it, and he's getting hitters to
Speaker 1: chase pitches outside the strike zone at a little bit
Speaker 1: above league average rate. So Yeah, I'm excited about zach
Speaker 1: eflyn Uh. I would keep him in the lineup based
Speaker 1: on what he's done. I'd really like to strike out
Speaker 1: to walk race. I'm excited about him. He's in Miami,
Speaker 1: first start this week, so he deserves me quite obviously. Um,
Speaker 1: I know we didn't necessarily expect him to seek this
Speaker 1: kind of stuff forward, being as dominant as he is,
Speaker 1: but Ethlyn Chris also a great start. Do you think
Speaker 1: he can keep it going? Yeah, yeah, I'm buying it.
Speaker 1: I think he's up there with those top guys, like
Speaker 1: I said before Montas and stuff, maybe even ahead of
Speaker 1: those guys pick ups because some leagues, shallow leagues. He's available,
Speaker 1: um when I don't think he should be. I think
Speaker 1: at this point this is a guy you should definitely
Speaker 1: pick up and putting in rotation and hold for a
Speaker 1: little while, see what he does. And I think he
Speaker 1: can keep it going and obviously not at this crazy
Speaker 1: of a rate, but like you know, he'll be a
Speaker 1: solid picture throughout the season. I think it could be
Speaker 1: consistent as well. Um, the better option than a lot
Speaker 1: that's out there right now that might be doing well.
Speaker 1: Like I don't know about this guy Thornton, uh, Trent Thornton,
Speaker 1: like he's doing well now. I'm not buying it though,
Speaker 1: Like I would much rather have the other guys we
Speaker 1: spoke of a couple other guys that I've been picking up,
Speaker 1: and that I like Jorgel Faro catching option. If you
Speaker 1: have a catcher like Danny Jansen who hasn't been doing anything,
Speaker 1: I think that's a good replacement. A far has been
Speaker 1: ripping it too homes the other day, and uh, the
Speaker 1: Mingo Harman, I think the Mingo Han deserves to be
Speaker 1: picked up in most leagues at this point. You guys
Speaker 1: agree harmon it into the six yesterday and again it
Speaker 1: was against the Oreos, so you take it with a
Speaker 1: grain of salt. But look, he has nasty stuff. He's
Speaker 1: just gotta uh work on limiting the walks. He saw
Speaker 1: that in his first start against the Tigers he had
Speaker 1: five walks with him yesterday only had two walks. But
Speaker 1: he also only had three strikeouts. So I kind of
Speaker 1: a mixed bag from Domingo Herman yesterday. But he definitely
Speaker 1: does have some filthy pitches. Just hope that the Yankees
Speaker 1: allow him to go this deep into games, at least six,
Speaker 1: so that we can get quality starts of him. Right
Speaker 1: we talked previously so deep they don't really need him
Speaker 1: to go that far into the game. We talked previously
Speaker 1: about Domingah Harman and how long he'll stay in the
Speaker 1: rotation for se hes about the he's expected back uh
Speaker 1: this weekend and actually, um, her mom's I believe on
Speaker 1: her mom's turn, but her mom the way he's pitched
Speaker 1: will not leave this rotation be Yeah, he's gonna get
Speaker 1: wise is the one that's gonna go back. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: agree with that. It's just to night for the Yankees.
Speaker 1: I think even just tonight, think so and Domingh Haman
Speaker 1: this week faces the White Side. So I like that start.
Speaker 1: I thought they I think they flip floffed them. I
Speaker 1: think the night's okay. I think I think I think um,
Speaker 1: but yeah, so for those that want to take that
Speaker 1: shot on Herman Luis every years, like I'm back front
Speaker 1: of them months. Yeah, like you're talking middle middle nay
Speaker 1: pitching tonight. Maybe they filil on that way. Maybe maybe
Speaker 1: they flipped on them that way. I supposedly whatever, Well
Speaker 1: verlanda tonight soaka tomorrow is tomorrow. So they flipped on
Speaker 1: them that way. Okay, So so there you go to
Speaker 1: not gonna night other wise gonnamorrow, both guys, Um, we'll
Speaker 1: be pitching early this week. Hermon will be in that
Speaker 1: rotation going forward, because Luisa rain was coming back eight
Speaker 1: times in think Kershaw is, by the way, which we
Speaker 1: have to mention, Kershaw making expected to start potentially next
Speaker 1: weekend for the Dodgers. That's how quickly he's coming back.
Speaker 1: It's happy making rehab start tomorrow tomorrow in double A,
Speaker 1: so you know, maybe he makes one more rehab started.
Speaker 1: For that, we could put him on track four, not
Speaker 1: this upcoming week's weekend, but the next one, so we'll
Speaker 1: see what happens. Is right, who's the who gets the
Speaker 1: first boot from the from the Dodgers rotation? My first instinct,
Speaker 1: my first inclination to answer to the for you stripling,
Speaker 1: I think it's Hulio. You're as man. I'll say that, Greg,
Speaker 1: even though you might be right. Yeah, I just don't
Speaker 1: say it. You're probably right. They've been very honest about
Speaker 1: wanting the limited the innings for him. We saw last
Speaker 1: night he only went three and two thirds game, up
Speaker 1: three runs on four hits, obviously with five things at
Speaker 1: the first time against San Francisco, for sure. Not disagreeing.
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm trying to find every way to defend
Speaker 1: the gay right. I don't want him to go No, No,
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody does. That's my instinct. You're probably right, though,
Speaker 1: ye a limit because in limit right, I wanted to
Speaker 1: be careful, but he couldn't bounce back and forth. What happens.
Speaker 1: I'm not a dropping I'm not cutting him. But you
Speaker 1: know I was answering the question speaking of someone getting
Speaker 1: demoted or leaving a rotation. He wasn't in the rotation,
Speaker 1: but he got demoted. Alex Reys, Yeah, dropping out x
Speaker 1: Rays Craig, I am, I am, I you know what?
Speaker 1: You can stab on him to see if even team leagues,
Speaker 1: I am, I am. You're taking a stamp on him,
Speaker 1: or took a stamp on him rather to see if
Speaker 1: you become this year's Josh, are potentially right through both
Speaker 1: the linings and you fall into the closer's role. There
Speaker 1: didn't happen. Run run, run run. And the worst part
Speaker 1: is that option triple A and they're keeping him as
Speaker 1: a reliever, the option triple to stretch him out. I'm
Speaker 1: holding on. I'm interesting, but because they're not stretching him
Speaker 1: out that he's wanted to get used to pitching consistently
Speaker 1: as a reliever. Yeah, you know, if he becomes a
Speaker 1: closer a couple of months to pick him back up.
Speaker 1: Obviously he has the name value, the name recognition, obviously
Speaker 1: has the talent. I don't think you'd be hold on
Speaker 1: and you don't have a roster about to hold onto
Speaker 1: him right now. I don't think I agree. And even
Speaker 1: if you do drop him, no one's gonna pick him
Speaker 1: up right now, so you have the option to pick
Speaker 1: him up later. So that's fine. It's fine to drop him.
Speaker 1: What about Sir Anthony Dominguez? What with this? Heck the
Speaker 1: nearest nonsense? Now I'm I'm still holding this guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: in its twelve points league, Yeah, that you playing, I
Speaker 1: probably would not own uh, Sorr Anthony. That's what I'm thinking.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, maybe it's abou time I dropped. In any
Speaker 1: type of Rhodo league where you need saves, I would
Speaker 1: hold him just because you don't know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1: So again, in Rhodo, I would hold on to Dominguez
Speaker 1: um even in head ted categories, if saves as a
Speaker 1: category or holds, I would hold on to him there.
Speaker 1: In your in the points league, headside points league, I
Speaker 1: think Sir Anthony Dominguez is probably droppable. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: so too. Well in Quinn, Yahoo's owned right now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that makes see. The thing is there's a lot of
Speaker 1: upside and that's why people want to hold him. Um,
Speaker 1: I get it. But he's been in shell lately. Sheld
Speaker 1: and uh. My other issue is that well wanted to early.
Speaker 1: Maybe he could work that out because we've seen Felipe A.
Speaker 1: Vasquez last year get sheld early on and turned things
Speaker 1: around significantly, right, maybe he could do the same. The
Speaker 1: other thing is that I don't have on this particulars
Speaker 1: he My only other closer is um Michael Gibons. No.
Speaker 1: I got rid of him. Um what's his name? Your
Speaker 1: boy on Detroit. I spent the nine dollars to get
Speaker 1: him because I had no closes. I had to do
Speaker 1: it available. There's no closest. I got a elbow. He's
Speaker 1: red hot man. Yeah, it's first and seven the seven
Speaker 1: games seven, Right, he's already given us seven return on investment.
Speaker 1: One second. That it's a great and that's why as
Speaker 1: a reliever in your league, though, there's nobody that could
Speaker 1: get sad, nobody, not even he Swarzak. Is he available?
Speaker 1: Like I'd rather find him than Domingo is in the
Speaker 1: Points League. That's see, that's my my problem is do
Speaker 1: I drop the talent of Domingo got a better team
Speaker 1: with the Phillies. But there's three guys there now, Tambertson
Speaker 1: and Hector Nerris. I'm not worried about Robertson as much.
Speaker 1: I feel like he's also you know, not that good anymore.
Speaker 1: He's old and he's not the same picture. He must
Speaker 1: be really good with the Yankees the past couple of years,
Speaker 1: I mean, but the Walks are in a big issue
Speaker 1: with something never an issue really for him before. I
Speaker 1: feel like, um, it's it's nearest that that bothers me.
Speaker 1: Now there's a third guy in the mix that bothers absolutely.
Speaker 1: So I don't know. Maybe I'll drop I'll drop him,
Speaker 1: but like I might wait a week. I just want
Speaker 1: to see what happens this week. I'm kind of still
Speaker 1: I still like the guy, you know, I still think
Speaker 1: he could be the closing And again that's only in
Speaker 1: points leaves like anywhere where saves or holds or league.
Speaker 1: I'm still holding onto Dominguas for sure. But the heads
Speaker 1: ad Points League, how many relievers do you start? Just
Speaker 1: too you could start as many as you want. In
Speaker 1: my leagues, it's normally you have to start two closers.
Speaker 1: Probably not owning him there. How about Ryan McMahon, Guys,
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people might have this question,
Speaker 1: especially in deeper leagues. What do I do with Ryan?
Speaker 1: So it's funny. So so I tell you I actually
Speaker 1: have Patrick Saunders Twitter up for just like the latest
Speaker 1: information on all these Rockies guys to try to get
Speaker 1: try to get it in. Uh McMahon hyper extended that elbow. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, is it some of these back in ten days?
Speaker 1: Maybe he Garrett Hamson run away with his job in
Speaker 1: ten days. Maybe he's got a shot here. He's got
Speaker 1: seven games straight this week, seven games, he's got it off.
Speaker 1: He's gonna have an opportunity thre three games in Coors Field.
Speaker 1: You gotta play it every day? Right? They're not gonna
Speaker 1: mess around? Are they probably have a choice? Yeah? I
Speaker 1: think what they played like it? Why do they hate
Speaker 1: Garrett Hampson bang up and the athlete? Yeah, that's why
Speaker 1: I think with David dal banged up, what all these
Speaker 1: guys banged up? I do think that Hampson's with seven
Speaker 1: games this week, he probably plays at least five at
Speaker 1: least at least Yeah, he's gonna get his opportunity. Now,
Speaker 1: that's the thing. I don't know if you want to
Speaker 1: plug him in in your weekly lineup, I doubt you know,
Speaker 1: it depends on what you got. I have that similar
Speaker 1: situation where I have a you know, like a Tim
Speaker 1: Beckham who's banged up. Do I plug him in for
Speaker 1: you know Beckham? I don't know. It's a situation because
Speaker 1: he's been so cold and Kane a lot bang a lot.
Speaker 1: I don't like that. That bothers me. Regarding Ryan Greg
Speaker 1: I asked, because he's the most drop player in Yahoo
Speaker 1: of all players available, and just surprises me like dropped
Speaker 1: in over like five thousand leagues right now. I would firstly,
Speaker 1: I would probably try and hold Ryan McMahon. McMahon's owned
Speaker 1: in just thirty three of Yahoo leagues because it's Rocky's exposure.
Speaker 1: Remember I picked up We had the conversation last last
Speaker 1: Wednesday or Thursday, that who do I pick up Ryan
Speaker 1: McMahon or trade man, and seeing I'm gonna pick up
Speaker 1: which ever one gets hit today got lucky? So people
Speaker 1: one of the Rockies exposure. He has more strikeouts than
Speaker 1: total bases. This year's Ryan McMahon. I don't want to
Speaker 1: wait yep and look another another very highly dropped player,
Speaker 1: Jock Peterson. We spoke about with Florio I think two
Speaker 1: weeks ago. Since then, Greg, he's over his last sixteen
Speaker 1: not coincidentally months what I've said about Jock Peters, not
Speaker 1: coincidentally when I picked him up and dropped Rum and Loriana,
Speaker 1: which worked out deals. Winker also garbage. He's betting oh
Speaker 1: forty two for the season. Another guy I really like
Speaker 1: car into the air. But it's the law of averages righter.
Speaker 1: Winker should turn it around. Winker should because he's not
Speaker 1: giving him the shot to play every day and lead
Speaker 1: off for that team, because they know what what what
Speaker 1: they have and he you know, this is a prospect
Speaker 1: that Listen doesn't trick doesn't trick out much, you know
Speaker 1: in the past, at least right not supposed to hits
Speaker 1: for high average. So you think this guy more like
Speaker 1: more than likely turn around. You gotta get him out
Speaker 1: of your lineup. Peterson. Peterson, I'm right with you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you don't leve him in your line but Peterson, until
Speaker 1: he gets hot, Peterson, I'm with you. Listen, that this
Speaker 1: is the guy that hits like two thirty less. You
Speaker 1: hit what two thirties something, So he's not a guy
Speaker 1: that's gonna hit for high average. You know, he's gonna
Speaker 1: go into see severe Colt streaks and he's very bad
Speaker 1: against lefties, so he doesn't again doesn't play against him.
Speaker 1: So this was a classic, uh first weekend victory lab
Speaker 1: Craig that people fell for once again. Scott Peterson not
Speaker 1: that you look, we're two weeks in. I can't just say, oh,
Speaker 1: he's automatic bus, but this is who he is. You're
Speaker 1: gonna have games where, you know, maybe you'll have a
Speaker 1: multi homer game, and he's gonna had a lot of
Speaker 1: people excited. Well, maybe this is the year Drop Peterson
Speaker 1: finally puts it together, all the prospect pedigree, and then
Speaker 1: he goes over his next six team. Who Drop Peterson is?
Speaker 1: At this point, it's been around a while regarding Jesse Winker,
Speaker 1: normally a guy who makes a ton of contact, Right,
Speaker 1: how about a twenty seven percent strikeout rate this year,
Speaker 1: a three point eight percent walk. Great as a leadoff
Speaker 1: hitter for his team. Jesse Winker bencham, but don't drop him.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't drop him yet about this. I'm in lasting
Speaker 1: my great Fantasy base momentational and rightfully so, because for
Speaker 1: the first week and a half or so, I've had
Speaker 1: both Cedric Mullins and Jesse Winker on my lineup. Greg
Speaker 1: as like my fourth and fifth outfielders. Zero points, nothing,
Speaker 1: zero garbage. It's a fifty team early league. I'm in
Speaker 1: last with like thirty points. Real bad, but that's just
Speaker 1: a bad so. I mean, Mollans, you could drop. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't drop Winky yet, though I wouldn't do it. Mullins
Speaker 1: is another leadoff hitter guy. You're just gonna give up.
Speaker 1: He might give up quicker because look, in a twelve
Speaker 1: team league, it's fine, like to look, uh, Mullins shouldn't
Speaker 1: be on in a twelve team league. This is I'm
Speaker 1: talking about a fifteen team rotal league. It's hard to
Speaker 1: come buy outfielders, and there's really not much available. Like
Speaker 1: the top outfielder's word Hayward and Gordon and Milky Cabrera Like,
Speaker 1: it's not great, so the replacement value, it's not much
Speaker 1: better than Cedric Mullins. You probably don't even have a
Speaker 1: Brinson out there. No, no, he's on, he's yes, one
Speaker 1: fifteen teamers like it's harder to drop guys like Winker
Speaker 1: and Mullins. I agree with you that I would be
Speaker 1: more likely to drop Mullins than Winker, but I wouldn't
Speaker 1: want to start either one right now yet be concerned
Speaker 1: playing enough. That's another huge concerns. Winker has been in
Speaker 1: the past, like past what five games? Really he's been playing,
Speaker 1: but he's just been terrible. I thought he also was out.
Speaker 1: I thought I was checking this earlier in the season.
Speaker 1: He was out of the lineup. It's been Yeah, he
Speaker 1: played four or in is two in a row, played
Speaker 1: four in a row. Mr, he's played five in the
Speaker 1: last six games. Yeah, he's been playing terrible. But yeah,
Speaker 1: wait wait for that. He has one hit. He has
Speaker 1: one hit all season long. Yeah, dropping Winker, yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know he's got the itchy trigger finger. One hit
Speaker 1: this season. I know. But it's so early, and he's
Speaker 1: a guy that they're gonna give a chance to, you know,
Speaker 1: or they won't because they but this is a guy
Speaker 1: they you know, they had last year. They're invested into me.
Speaker 1: He's a prospect. He's a guy they want in their
Speaker 1: lineup eventually. I just think he needs time to adjust.
Speaker 1: I give him another week or two at least before
Speaker 1: I'm dropping him, but I'm benching him. Greg. Would you
Speaker 1: drop Winker for Dan Vogelbach? You needed you to play?
Speaker 1: I'm just running down the list. No, you're right, you're right,
Speaker 1: and like so, my thought process is always between do
Speaker 1: you hold on and wait or you take the hot guy? Yes,
Speaker 1: I'm driving Jesse Winker. No, No, you're not doing that one.
Speaker 1: Keep an eye on Yes, how about Kevin Kermeyer, who's
Speaker 1: played well? No, nor so you seem kind of makeing
Speaker 1: out of the same way, Like, what do they Matt Modica,
Speaker 1: what do they? Everybody downstairs as well, Frank and Chris.
Speaker 1: I'm Gregg see tomorrow, we hope.
