I dropped I forget I 30 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: dropped Wilson Contrero's for him actually, and my god, he's 31 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: been helping out myself and a lot of people on 32 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,119 Speaker 1: the way to the Fantasy Championships, just like we all 33 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: expected at the beginning of the year. Trevor Rodgers Mickey 34 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: Moniac leading you to Fantasy Baseball Championships. We're going to 35 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: be talking about some streamers and pickups, but I wanted 36 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: to just mention first, possibly to the chagrin of Bubba 37 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw, I know that he has been hurting you 38 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: guys for a long time out there in the Bay 39 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: as a Giants fan. With Clayton Kershaw announced that he 40 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: will be retiring at the end of the season, and 41 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: just going through some of the stats yesterday. It really 42 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: is ridiculous what he's been able to do. Nearly three 43 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: thousand innings. He's at twenty eight to forty four with 44 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: a two fifty four ERA and a one zero two 45 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: whip four his career, he has just been unbelievable. One 46 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: of the best pitchers of all time. I think you 47 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: can comfortably say he is the second best left handed 48 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: pitcher of all time behind Randy Johnson. That's probably where 49 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 1: I'd be at. But baba, any words on Clayton Kershaw 50 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 1: is somebody that you watched up close for the last 51 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:16,679 Speaker 1: twenty or so years now. 52 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I absolutely love Clayton Kershaw. Yes, he has torm 53 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 2: into the Giants. It's been one of those love hate relationships. 54 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 2: But as a baseball fan, it's hard to ignore how 55 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 2: great he has been on the mound, how honestly, how 56 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: really great he's been for the game of baseball. So 57 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 2: he will be missed. It's probably good he's heading out 58 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: when he is, because he's having a crazy season this year, 59 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 2: there's no denying that. But we can kind of see 60 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 2: the light at the end of the tunnel, the velocities down, 61 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 2: all that stuff, So it gets to go out on 62 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 2: his terms, which is always good. Sarah Langs, who does 63 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 2: a lot of amazing stats on Twitter, put this out 64 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 2: there yesterday. Just just wrap your head around this for 65 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 2: a second. Clayton Kershaw has made four hundred and forty 66 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 2: nine starts in his career, Joe, he has just ninety 67 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 2: six losses in those four hundred and forty nine starts. 68 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 2: That's one hundred and nine more starts than any other 69 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 2: pitcher in baseball history with fewer than one hundred losses, 70 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 2: one hundred and nine more chances to lose, and still 71 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 2: did not like the fact is he's that that there's 72 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 2: one hundred and nine game gap basically between him and 73 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 2: the next person is insane. 74 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: It's you just like you don't even have words, right. 75 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: He just want to sit there and giggle when you 76 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: hear things. 77 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 2: Like Don Metz. 78 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: It's just ridiculous, foolish. Baseball did a video a couple 79 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: of years ago just breaking down every season of Kershaw's 80 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: like true true prime, which would have started in twenty 81 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: eleven and went through about twenty seventeen, and it's really 82 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: worth checking out. He was essentially the closest thing you're 83 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: gonna see to Pedro Martinez at the turn of the 84 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: century that we've seen I think in my lifetime all 85 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: ninety six losses came in the playoffs from Uncle. 86 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 2: Ted Well to see. Yeah, if we counted playoff stats, 87 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 2: he probably about one forty over all in his career. 88 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 2: Because I will admit this is where being the Giants 89 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 2: fan always I enjoyed. It was when the playoffs began, 90 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 2: and I have so many pictures on my camera on 91 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 2: my phone of him just with his head in his 92 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 2: hands in the dugout by like the fourth inning of 93 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: most starts. 94 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, in the postseason, just looking at it, one hundred 95 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: and ninety four innings, he had a four to forty 96 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: nine ERA and a one to eleven whip. Not Clayton 97 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: Kirkshaw ESQ. One of the more stark differences I think 98 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: between regular season track record and postseason track record in 99 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: sports history, not just in baseball, but if I'm trying 100 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: to think of guys who just constantly were amazing in 101 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: the regular season and every year in the playoffs they 102 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: just fell flat. I can't think of another like, true, 103 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 1: true example to this degree. Like you're the Dolphins fan, 104 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if Dan Marino with he always I 105 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: don't remember what he did in the playoffs every year, 106 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: never won a title, but like that kind of like 107 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: regular season dominance that just didn't translate to postseason success. 108 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: I mean, at the end of the day, Kirshaw has 109 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: two World Series. I don't know actually, if they gave 110 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: him a ring for last year, he might have, might 111 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 1: have not. But either way, Clayton Kershaw, one of the 112 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: best careers, one of the best pitchers we will ever see. 113 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: Just wanted to mention it off the top here. Let's 114 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: get into a couple of these streamers, and I just 115 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: wanted to go through like we did the other day. 116 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: Seemed to get some good reaction to it. Just the 117 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: top most added players today and guys that have been 118 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 1: kind of hot as of late. And we'll start with 119 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: Austin Martin, somebody who has been picked up a lot. 120 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 1: He was a topic of conversation on Fantasy Baseball Twitter 121 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 1: about a week ago. But Austin Martin, you know, coming 122 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: up in Toronto. We traded him as part of the 123 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: Jose Brios trade. I didn't think he was anything all 124 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: that special. To be honest, to this point in his career, 125 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 1: he hasn't really looked that great, but this year, especially 126 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 1: as of late, he's turned things around. It. For the 127 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 1: season as a whole, he's hitting two ninety six nine 128 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: steals in forty two games. If you're looking for a 129 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: little bit of bating average, a little bit of speed, 130 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 1: here is Austin Martin somebody you'd be worth picking up. 131 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely. My co host Ryan Bloomfili, who has been 132 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 2: on this show a couple of times, was pumping him 133 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 2: up on The Fab Show a couple of weeks ago 134 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 2: just for what you mentioned. He's playing every day. He's 135 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: hitting for average, like over the last two weeks, basically 136 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 2: since almost three weeks August twenty seven, with dudes hitting 137 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 2: three point fifty four with five stolen bases and he 138 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 2: scored twelve runs. Doesn't have any power, but he gets 139 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 2: on base a ton of sixteen percent walk rate to 140 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 2: go with a sixteen percent k rate. You hit second 141 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 2: for the Twins. Again, not a great team, we know that, 142 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 2: but if you need runs, you need steals, you need 143 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 2: BALLI and average. For the last week in a points league, 144 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 2: he's gold because isobeps through the roof like he should 145 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 2: be rostered in all points formats if you're gonna head 146 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 2: to head or something. But yeah, there's a lot to 147 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 2: like here if that power could ever develop, even if 148 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 2: it's like it's almost a mini Luise Rii's profile. Like, 149 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 2: if he could just get like ten to fifteen homers, 150 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 2: this guy could be a fun conversation at twenty twenty six, Joe. 151 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 2: But for your initial question final week, yes, I would 152 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 2: be all in. He's got six ridies on test, pretty 153 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 2: okay schedule coming up too. 154 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: Let's say it's a shallow format and you just need 155 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: that speed with some batting average, and Chandler Simpson would 156 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: also be out there. Hypothetically, would you take Martin or 157 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: would you take Simpson in that situation? 158 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,359 Speaker 2: I take Simpson still, he's just a freak of nature 159 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 2: on the base pads, he's leading up, he's doing a 160 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 2: lot of the same things with probably twice as many steals. 161 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, the first hand, as my Jays were in Tampa 162 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 1: for a four game series and Chandler Simpson I think 163 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: had like nine hits, eight hits in that series. And yeah, Michael, 164 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: with the Marino comp, it's probably a poor comp. Like 165 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: I didn't I'm not old enough to see Marino myself. 166 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: I'm just talking about like regular season dominance, lack of 167 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 1: playoff success. That's really where it starts. It ends with 168 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: Dan Marino and the Clayton Kershaw comparison. Let's talk hass 169 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: On Kim, who has been really solid as a member 170 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: of the Braves. Bubba, I think you were one of 171 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: the first people I saw shouted out when he signed 172 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: to say that this is somebody you should be picking up. 173 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: Thirty nine games this year, he's hitting two fifty seven 174 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: pre homer six dole in bases, playing every day for 175 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: a lineup that is not amazing, but it's not terrible either. 176 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: So what do you think about Hassan Kim? You need 177 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: a middle endfielder, he needs some help over the weekend. 178 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: Is see somebody you'd be worth picking up for you? 179 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,679 Speaker 2: Definitely hitting three twenty seven since he joined the Braves 180 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 2: on September second. I don't know what their rays. We're 181 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 2: thinking here and again that we don't have to go 182 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 2: on that rabbit hole. But one homer, nine runs, eight 183 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 2: eight RBIs He's usually provides more speed, but maybe that's 184 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 2: just a work in progress for this team and the Braves. Yes, 185 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 2: bad team playing better of late offensively, at least so Yeah, 186 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 2: I'd have Kim roster up for sure. He should have 187 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 2: been rostered when he joined the Braves when we knew 188 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 2: he was playing every day, hitting fifth or sixth. That 189 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: had some definite fantasy appeal. 190 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm all there with him. Picked him up in 191 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: a couple of leagues myself as a middle infielder one league, 192 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 1: who was actually in my second base spot right now. 193 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: But he's producing, and while he's producing, you got to 194 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: you gotta take advantage while you can. This is like, 195 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: this is the time of year. We've mentioned this a 196 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: few times, but if you have somebody who has been 197 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: a mainstay on your roster all year and now they're 198 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: just laying an egg for you, cut them. We're well 199 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 1: into that part of the season. Moyes's ballisteros but I 200 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,079 Speaker 1: wanted to talk about him. We've seen him at a 201 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: couple of home runs recently. The problem for me with 202 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: adding him, like I'm seeing the potential of the profile. 203 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,199 Speaker 1: I like him. I want to add him, but there 204 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: are so many viable catchers. You probably have a Drake Bald, 205 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: when you have a Herrera, you have a Kirk, you 206 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: have a you know, Kyle Teal or somebody like that. 207 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: Would you be prioritizing Ballisteros over anybody that I just 208 00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: mentioned there, Teal Kirk Baldwin probably not a gustin the 209 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 1: way you feel about Augustin, but any chance that you'd 210 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: pick up boys as Ballasteros here over any you know, 211 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: regular catcher for the stretch run. 212 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you need power, he takes a giant leap 213 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: over say a Kirk like Kirk is definitely Kirk's a 214 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 2: great pure hitter. I'm not going to deny that one iota. 215 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 2: But if you need power, Biostereos is great. He's got 216 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 2: six games in rig Lea. Now the weather can dictate differently, 217 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 2: could be an even better week or a rough week 218 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 2: when we look back on that. We don't know though, 219 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 2: But bios Daros, I'd probably have him over almost two 220 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 2: thirds of the catchers in baseball for the final week 221 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 2: of the season, just because my biggest thing with him 222 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 2: was he going to play with Suzuki coming back, and 223 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 2: he still dated the first two games since Suzuki came back. 224 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 2: So if they're gonna let this kid run for the 225 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 2: last week and play and hit clean up essentially, then yeah, 226 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 2: you want this in your lineup, you want him raking 227 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 2: for you right now because that boy's power is legit. 228 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 1: What do you think about him next year is he'd 229 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 1: be somebody'd be comfortable with as a first catcher in 230 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: a two catcher league or more of a second catcher for. 231 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 2: You for now, just out of like cautious, he's a 232 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 2: catcher too. But if we find out like he's is 233 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 2: the starting catcher, like, hey, sorry, Miguelemaya, who's awesome, but 234 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 2: he's been banged up. If if somehow Biasteros is the 235 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 2: the catcher one for the Cubs or we know he's 236 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 2: gonna DH or something, then he moves to be a 237 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 2: catcher one in fantasy, Like if we know he's getting 238 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: that bats, he is a catcher one. 239 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: I think that's totally fair in that lineup. I hope 240 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: Kyle Tucker goes back for their sake, but it's a 241 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: good lineup. 242 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 2: Oh yeah. 243 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: It's been an up and down season for the lineup 244 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: as a whole, but they are talented top to bottom. 245 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 1: You know, there's been times where they have been the 246 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: best offense in baseball this year. For stretches, hoping the 247 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: Tucker goes back and hoping Ballasteros is the regular catcher, 248 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,959 Speaker 1: but who knows. With Carson Kelly, I don't know what 249 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 1: was gonna happen with him. He was off to such 250 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: a great start this year, but that's something that I 251 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: don't think we'll ever really see again. Let's talk about 252 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: Blaine Krim, probably a name that you'd be forgiven if 253 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: you hadn't heard before first basement four of the Rockies. 254 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: You know, I didn't think there'd be really a ton 255 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 1: yere but in eleven games he's hit three home runs, 256 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: seven ribbyes. He's hitting one seventy six. But if you 257 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: just need some power, they are at cores over the weekend, Bubba, 258 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: Any chance you'd be willing to use him in a 259 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: corner spot. 260 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 2: Cores over the weekend? Yes, go in next week. I 261 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 2: know he finishes the weekend in San Francisco, which does 262 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 2: not appeal to me much, and the opens the week 263 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: at Seattles. He had two tough ballparks there, so if 264 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 2: this weekend only, yes. Since he joined the Rockies, hit 265 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 2: safely in five of six games with those three homers 266 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 2: you mentioned, still strikes out nearly thirty eight percent. I 267 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 2: cover this guy a lot in my al WESPT tomorrow 268 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 2: for HQ. So yeah, no one should know about him 269 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 2: because he was down in the depths. He was with 270 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 2: the Rangers. They dfaight him when they signed Rowdy and 271 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,559 Speaker 2: brought him up. He's he's not even that young anymore. 272 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 2: He's just a ton of power. He reminds you a 273 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 2: lot like for let's go to the wayback machine, kind 274 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 2: of a CJ. Cron type deal. Okay, so there's gonna 275 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 2: be streaks where things are awesome, there's gonna be the 276 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 2: other side of that, so just be prepared. But for 277 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 2: the weekend, yes, I'm cool with that. 278 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: I will say that like watching him swing, not that 279 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,439 Speaker 1: I'm a swing analyst, but it's a very smooth looking 280 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 1: power stroke that he does have. Wouldn't be so prize 281 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: if he does hit a home run this weekend, he 282 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: might go one for twelve with that home run. Yes, 283 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: but if you are just looking for some power, he 284 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: could be somebody that is a decent pickup for you 285 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: for the weekend. Guys, I want to remind you that 286 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: we are giving away the Billy Wagner signed baseball courtesy 287 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: of our good friends over at Pristine Auction dot com. 288 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: All you have to do to enter is subscribe to 289 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 1: the Fantasy Pro MLB YouTube channel right now, drop a 290 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: com up below on any video and that's it.

Let's take a couple of questions here 295 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,719 Speaker 1: in the chat. What's your outlook of Matt Shaw from 296 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: a dynasty perspective. I like Matt Shaw. You know, we 297 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: have seen periods this year where he's been really really 298 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: productive as a whole. It's not anything to really write 299 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: home about. Eleven homers, sixteen steals, two twenty, but he's 300 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: not striking out a lot. He has a decent walk rate, 301 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 1: he's not been overpowered at the plate. I like Matt Shaw. 302 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 1: I think that, you know, he's somebody from a dynasty 303 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: point of view, is probably a decent Bylow. Right now, 304 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: what do you think. 305 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 2: Bubba I could see as a decent by Low. There's 306 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,719 Speaker 2: still a lot of potential. They're still super young, so 307 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 2: there's there's room for growth. Yeah, I'd be cool buying Low. 308 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 2: It was a down season, it was a learning season, 309 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:10,959 Speaker 2: so we'll have to see where it goes from there. 310 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I think that like going into next year, 311 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: he'll be pretty cheap. And if I'm looking for like 312 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: a like a bench depth or maybe a corner infielder, 313 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,199 Speaker 1: He's probably somebody that I'm looking at in the in 314 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: the mid two hundreds. I imagine he's going somewhere next 315 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: year stream for Sunday Cantillo at Minnesota or Tyne at 316 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: Sincy wins needed probably go with Cantillo right now. Honestly, 317 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: Cleveland has been Cleveland might win the Central at this point. 318 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: I think Tywan is also a viable streamer, but you're 319 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: taking on some more risk with what he's dealt with 320 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 1: this year going into Cincinnati versus Cantillo and the hot Guardians, Bubba, 321 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: do you agree? 322 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, both both are in play. I would go with 323 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 2: Cantillo just if the tiebreaker being great American small park basically, Yeah. 324 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 1: What happened to Trace? I would just start today show 325 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: you're supposed to start, and I don't believe it was 326 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 1: ever going to be today unless I missed a thing. 327 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: He started on Monday. He started and Monday, so this 328 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: would be very short rest. It wouldn't have made sense, 329 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 1: I believe it is going to be Sunday in Kansas City, 330 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: although John Schneider has been a little bit coy about 331 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: what's going to happen. But if he's not starting, then 332 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: he's throwing bulk relief and he'd still be worth getting 333 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 1: into your lineups. Should do a triple threat for the 334 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: final show. I TL Bubba and the Blue and two 335 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: Joe's one show. Now that that would be hilarious. The 336 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: producers would hate us with the new graphic they'd have 337 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: to make for like six of us on the screen. 338 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 2: But and going live might be tricky with that group. Yes, 339 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 2: if you want to know that group for sure, come 340 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 2: to First Pitch Arizona and meet us at the bar 341 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 2: at about ten thirty. You'll get the full show. 342 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, lots of cooks in the kitchen and lots of 343 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: mouths in the kitchen too. I don't know how much 344 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 1: analysis would get done. Would be a lot of fun, though. 345 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: Maybe we'll do something in. 346 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 2: The off lots of laughs, lots of laughs. 347 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: Maybe we can do something in the off season just 348 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: for S's and G's streamer for next week Colluk at 349 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: la or Waldrup versus Washington with a win needed man. 350 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: That's a toss up for me, I might go with 351 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 1: wald but I think it's very close. What do you think, Bubba, 352 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 1: It's extremely close. 353 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: I think Waldrip's got the much higher ceiling. But I've 354 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 2: been pumping collect Coleic looked great. I leave. It was 355 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 2: Thursday when he threw. And the Angels are garbage. They 356 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 2: have like four or five triple ayers hitting right now. 357 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 2: That lineup is horrific. So I have zero problem. If 358 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 2: you want to go collect, go for it. Just know 359 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 2: the ceilings With Waldrip. 360 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: I mean what Colak has been doing over the last 361 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 1: five starts. 362 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 2: Good. 363 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: He's not striking out a ton of guys. Outside of 364 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: the last start, which you mentioned, he had eight strikeouts 365 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 1: against Seattle, who had been cooking, but a one ninety 366 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: one ERA with a two eighty one FIP over his 367 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: last five starts, thirty three innings over those five starts, 368 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: so he has been going deep into ball games as well. 369 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: Moys's Ballisteros are Gabby moreno Man probably Ballosteros at this point. 370 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: If you're looking for the. 371 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 2: Upside, yeah, if Bias Staios is getting regular at bats, 372 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 2: I go, I go Bia Stereos. 373 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: I still like Gabby, but it Gabby's fine, yea, But 374 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: I mean I tweeted something a couple of years ago 375 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: saying like, it's gonna be Gabby Moreno and Adley Redchman 376 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: number one and two in your rankings in a couple 377 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: of years. Oh, man, I gotta scrub, gotta scrub the 378 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: timeline with things like that on there. You know, Moreno 379 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: was the number one prospect in baseball at a time 380 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: and it just hasn't really panned out at all the time. 381 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 2: You weren't wrong, Let's put it that way. 382 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: What do you think looking back on that trade Lordus 383 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: Guriel and Gabby Moreno for Dalton Varshow I feel like 384 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: Toronto did all right there. But it feels pretty even 385 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: for both sides at the end of the day. 386 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, both sides have done well. Like Guriel and company 387 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 2: helped the d Backs get to the World Series. They 388 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 2: and limb but they got there. And Varshow's when he's 389 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 2: on the field, there's been a monster for you guys, 390 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 2: So I think it's totally fair. I loved Varshow when 391 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 2: he was His hit tool has always been great. Just 392 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 2: now he's moved to the outfield and just needs to 393 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 2: stay healthy because he's a beast. 394 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: Oh man, imagine he had still had Catcher eligibility, that 395 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: would be that would be gorgeous. Will just continue on 396 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: YouTube next year or be back on Twitch? Those decisions 397 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: are made well above my pay grade. I would imagine 398 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: that it'll be some kind of combination of both, where 399 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: we're doing leading off on Twitch and then we're still 400 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: doing live streams and pods and different mock trap some 401 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: things on YouTube. But that'll be a question to check 402 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: in in the offseason four because I'm not one hundred 403 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: percent sure and I don't have any say in the matter, 404 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: to be perfectly honest with you guys. Last keeper spot 405 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: between Kurtz, Camon Naro, and Nolan McClain. Oh man, I 406 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 1: don't think it's McClain. I think it's between Kurtz and 407 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: Cam and Aro. 408 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 2: That's a discussion. Yeah, that's impressive. Honestly, without knowing the 409 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 2: rest of the keepers makes it a little more challenging. 410 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 2: I lean Cam and Aro, but I would not argue 411 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 2: with Kurtz at all. The dudes freaking beast. 412 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't even have a strong feel here. I 413 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: think I think I might go Cam and Aro, but 414 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: I think you can't really go wrong at this point. Kurtz, 415 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 1: Like we mentioned the other day, Kurtz has been the 416 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: second best offensive player in baseball behind Judge and then 417 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: Cam and Narow. As a twenty twenty one year old, 418 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: he has forty five home runs. Like, you can't really 419 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: go wrong either way. 420 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 2: Legit, who are the other keepers? I want to know 421 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 2: right now, if you can keep those two guys, you 422 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 2: better have like show hey, o Towny, Ronald McCune, your junior. 423 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 2: I think it was a Judge Crochet and Skeens Wealth. Okay, 424 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 2: just a six team. 425 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:11,399 Speaker 1: League Judge Crochet and skiing. Wow, Wow, impressive stuff. 426 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 2: And do you have Judge then you go Camin Eric 427 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 2: because you already have the freaking monster and he out 428 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 2: like that. That's my st But hey, can't go wrong, honestly. 429 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 1: You can't go wrong. Just don't go Nolan McLain, all 430 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 1: due respect to Nolan McLain. 431 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:24,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you already have two pitchers, like, don't go 432 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 2: with the third. 433 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, keeping between Sandy Joe Ryan and Paveta. Joe Ryan 434 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: with a bullet for me. 435 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 2: Yes, Ryan, I love Paveta, but Ryan, Yes, Joe. 436 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 1: Ryan, Paveta, I am close to my heart, but I 437 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:39,680 Speaker 1: can't take him over to Joe Ryan. Joe Ryan has 438 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: been really poor the last month or so, but I 439 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,679 Speaker 1: think he's still a top ten pitcher next year pretty 440 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 1: handily for me. Is Bubba Chandler starting tomorrow? It looks 441 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 1: like he is, but he's basically what I'm looking at. 442 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: You is getting the athletics, and they are in Pittsburgh. 443 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 2: Last question for it's official? Nothing's official, but he's scheduled 444 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 2: to start. Yes, the Pirates won't commit, so just just 445 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 2: so they if they get mad later on and something changes, 446 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 2: that's what happened. 447 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 1: The Pirates will commit to Bubba Chandler. What huh? What's 448 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: going on now? 449 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 2: I know? The only thing of you that commit in 450 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh is a ball skains to live be done. 451 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: So has he hit a knee yet? Has he dropped 452 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: down to a knee yet? 453 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 2: I saw him doing stuff on as he was doing 454 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 2: her hair on Instagram, So you might as well drop 455 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 2: to an ear pretty soon. 456 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: Well, at that point, you gotta get out from under 457 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 1: Lyle and Jeremiah Jackson for Durban and Monica a moniac 458 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: in the championship right now, get out from under Lyle 459 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 1: Lyle has been great. If you want to drop Jackson 460 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: for Moniac for the weekends, I think that's probably the 461 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: way to go. Here and Bubba and I are on 462 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: the same page, which I always like to be on 463 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: the same page as mister Bubba. Let's talk about some pitching. 464 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 1: Streamers just highlighted some guys here that are being added 465 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: in a lot of leagues, and also a couple that 466 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 1: I just thought were kind of interesting to talk about 467 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: for the next couple of days, four or five options 468 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 1: on each day. Let's start with Louis Averino. I know 469 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,199 Speaker 1: Louis Averno. You hear that, you're thinking, holy crap, this 470 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: guy wants to tank my season recommending Louis Severino. But 471 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 1: he's on the road. And Luis Severino on the road 472 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 1: this year, has a three eleven ERA at home, it's 473 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 1: been six fifty one. But he's on the road against 474 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: the Pirates. Bubba, this feels like a pretty good spot 475 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 1: for him. 476 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 2: Yep, you nailed the biggest part. The home roads puts 477 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 2: are legit with Severino this season. He's been very good 478 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 2: on the road. I'm all in. I love this matchup. 479 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 2: I recommended him last week in FAB like, Hey, if 480 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 2: you want a streamer for the week, that's your dude, 481 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 2: So get some Severino. 482 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: I think he's maybe the best streaming option for today. 483 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 1: So if you're in a daily league, I would pick 484 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 1: him up as quick as you can. Janson Junk at 485 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,640 Speaker 1: Texas Bubba Texas has been struggling recently, not a team 486 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 1: that has been flourishing in the month of September. So 487 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 1: any chance for you with Jansen Junk today. 488 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 2: No, it's in his name, so I'm out there's he 489 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 2: pitched like Junk his last time out. He pitched really 490 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 2: well for people, and I didn't know how he did it, 491 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 2: and I'm just going to continue to stay away from him. 492 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: I think that's probably fair. I think that's probably fair. 493 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: The command, you know, we talked about this. I think 494 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: with Ryan the command being what it is in the 495 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 1: walk right, being low will help out those fips and 496 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: x FIP numbers. And maybe you're a little bit deceiving, 497 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: like they all tell you that he has command and 498 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 1: just walk a lot of batters, but at the end 499 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: of the day, the results have not been there for 500 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 1: Jansen Junk. Let's talk about Brandon Sproute versus Washington. I 501 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: feel like in competitive leagues. He's probably been picked up 502 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 1: if you're in a shallow ten or twelve team league. Here, 503 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 1: Bubba Brandon Sprout, is he somebody you'd be willing to use? 504 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 2: Heck yeah, sick back to back, really good starts, six 505 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 2: innings and both starts. I'm all aboard that. 506 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I am as well. I think that 507 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: is the second best option today behind Luis s Everina. 508 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: And then here's an interesting one making a return after 509 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: a long layoff, Tyler Mally against the Marlins. Would you 510 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: be willing to trust him with your season on the 511 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: line today? 512 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 2: No, No, I'm out. I like if I knew he 513 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 2: was all good to go, But the long layoffs terrifies me. 514 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 2: Marlin's are pesky man like. They're not great. They're gonna 515 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 2: have a lot of duds with their pesky. Went through 516 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 2: their roster on last night's show and there's just a 517 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 2: lot of dudes doing the little things to annoy you. 518 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 1: Basically, I am probably gonna buy a Jacob Marcy jersey 519 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: in the off season. I am I fallen in love. 520 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 1: I really have maybe a jersey or something. I don't 521 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: know if I need to spend three hundred bucks on 522 00:21:58,760 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: a Marlin Jersey. 523 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 2: Stick with the right now because if it's a Marlin, 524 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 2: he probably won't be there in the next three years, 525 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 2: So stick to the jersey. 526 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 1: I hope there's no Marlins fans in the chat. But 527 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 1: if you look back at what we had on that team, 528 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 1: like not even ten years ago, yell, it's Stanton real 529 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: mudo ozuna, Like they had such a juggernaut offensively and 530 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,959 Speaker 1: no more, no more. Indeed, let's go to Saturday. Talk 531 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: about Saturday's options, starting with Luis Morales kind of the 532 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 1: same deal going into Pittsburgh. Baba, what are your thoughts 533 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 1: on Morales? Is he somebody you'd be willing to stream? 534 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 2: Yep? I kept Morales. I tell people like they're worried 535 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 2: about the two staff last week at home, I said, 536 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 2: if you can't stomach that stomach holding him for the 537 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh start, I like him better than Savarina. But that's 538 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 2: a different day. So yes, you're Morales. 539 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: What about Kyle Harrison at Tampa Bay makes me a 540 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: little bit worried, but you know Kyle Harrison well, being 541 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: a Giants prospect. 542 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 2: I love Kyle Harrison. I don't trust him against Tampa 543 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 2: Bay A for the ballpark situation, and b I don't 544 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 2: think he's going deep. I think we might see some 545 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 2: Peyton Toley backing him up or something. So I'm just 546 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 2: worried about the workload for him. Arson. If they ever 547 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 2: commit to him, I'd be very excited. 548 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: Hayton totally. There's a bunch of fab that went right 549 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: into the fireplace. Let's talk about Chad Patrick at Saint Louis. 550 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 1: Now in the deeper league. Is he's probably rostered if 551 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,679 Speaker 1: you're in a shallower format, decent chance he's out there 552 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 1: against Saint Louis. I personally love this one. 553 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 2: Bubba. Yeah, it's a good match at Fort Saint Louis, 554 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 2: but Bubba in the bloom. We have a rule if 555 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,399 Speaker 2: you have two first names, you shouldn't be pitching. So 556 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 2: just joking kind of. But yeah. The other thing with 557 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 2: Chad Patrick, similar to Kyle Harrison, how stretched out is he? 558 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 2: He came in his last time way through a couple 559 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 2: of innings. That's my only concern. But phenomenal matchup to 560 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 2: your point against Saint Louis, who's been dreadful. 561 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: As long as he doesn't have three first names and 562 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: we're still we're still good. That's when you start to 563 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 1: get into into trouble. I want to mention Bubba Chandler. 564 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 1: He was brought up earlier, but he's facing the Athletics tomorrow. 565 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 1: This will not be in Sacramento. This will be in Pittsburgh. 566 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 1: Any trepidation at all about putting him in your lineups. 567 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 2: If you got him, you pitch him. It's the A's. 568 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 2: They've been good. They've one of the best teams in 569 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 2: baseball since the All Star Breaks. Awesome tweet on that 570 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 2: on Thursday. But yeah, Chandler bounced back nicely. You roll 571 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 2: with that one. 572 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. In the month of September, Philadelphia and Seattle are 573 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,880 Speaker 1: the only teams that have a higher WRC plus as 574 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,120 Speaker 1: a team than the Athletics. Too. The Athletics are hitting 575 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: two seventy seven for the month as a team. 576 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 2: The A's have three hitters with thirty plus home runs. 577 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: I saw that the only team in baseball right. I 578 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 1: thought the Mets were there, but Lindor is just short 579 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 1: on homers. But the A's of all teams, you know, 580 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: big turnaround for them. They're going to be in Sacramento 581 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 1: for the next couple of seasons. I think solast. 582 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 2: One more, but I would imagine at least two more. 583 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: Yes, I don't think they're going to be rushing to 584 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: spend money on a new stadium anytime soon. So maybe 585 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 1: we get two more years, but at the very least 586 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: one more year. So next year in draft season, the 587 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 1: A's are going to be all over the place. On 588 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: my teams. I'm in love with a lot of what 589 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: they got going on, and even the guys aren't heading 590 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: for a ton of power. Like Jacob Wilson's had himself 591 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 1: a quietly great year. I know he's cooled off in 592 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: the second half. Lawrence Butler started to pick things up 593 00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:59,199 Speaker 1: a little bit recently. This is a this is a 594 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: good team. This is a good team heading into next year. 595 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,919 Speaker 1: I think let's hit the Sunday again. I'm targeting the pirates. 596 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Springs, Bubba, what do you think about Jeffrey Springs 597 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: if you're seeing him on shallow waiver wires, is he 598 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: worth a Sunday stream for you. 599 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,359 Speaker 2: If you're desperate to get those last counting stats on 600 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 2: the final day. Yes, Springs has been good, that very inconsistent, 601 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 2: and we just saw Pittsburgh light up Matthew Boyd. So 602 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 2: if they can They're still a bad team, but they've 603 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 2: proven they can get to a lefty. 604 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, Matthew Boyd, I got suckered in by that matchup. 605 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: I you know, he hasn't looked like himself really for 606 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks hit, but seeing that matchup, I 607 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 1: threw him into lineups all over the place and I 608 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: paid the dear price for it. So be careful, be 609 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 1: careful a little bit. Jeffrey Springs I think would be 610 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 1: more of a volume desperation type of streamer. What about 611 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 1: Connolly Early, who we talked about after his debut last 612 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: week when he had I think it was eleven strikeouts 613 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,959 Speaker 1: over his five innings. He's also in Tampa at that 614 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:54,880 Speaker 1: little tiny ballpark bubbas So what do you think? 615 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you roll with them. He's had two 616 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 2: great outings, both against the A's, of course, but he's 617 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 2: got five in each outing. Strikeouts are through the roof. 618 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 2: Like you continue to cross your fingers and hope on 619 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 2: this one. 620 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so as well. Now, Jamison Tyone and 621 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: Joey Cantillo were already brought up in a question earlier, 622 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: but I do think that they are both viable streamers 623 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: for Sunday and Bubba, I believe you agree on that one. 624 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: Cantillo just slightly over kyone from what we said earlier. 625 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 1: And then the last one, Costanza Jason Alexander against Seattle. Now, 626 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: Seattle's been hot, cooled off a little bit the last 627 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: few days. What do you think of Castanza on Sunday. 628 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 2: I'm rolling with him. I have a soft spot for him, 629 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 2: Ryan Trees, but walk me off that lege. Now it's 630 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 2: a tough matchup versus Seattle. If you want to sit 631 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 2: him this this time, I get it. It's the Angels 632 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 2: next week. You want that one. But I roll with 633 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 2: Costanza here. Strikeouts might be limited, but he's just been 634 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:47,200 Speaker 2: a good ratio man. 635 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 1: He has been for sure. He has been for sure.

We went two for three on Wednesday, had 669 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: a pretty good day, but wasn't feeling terribly confident, so 670 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: wanted to take a look at the suggestions today. Bryce 671 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,439 Speaker 1: Elder under seventeen and a half outs. You're getting this 672 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 1: one fairly close to even money here at minus one fourteen. 673 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 1: I know that Bryce Elder has been a little bit 674 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 1: better as of late, but he's still not somebody that 675 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: I really have any faith in, to be honest with you. 676 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: Against the team in Detroit, who albeit is struggling a 677 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: little bit right now, I'm willing to take the under 678 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: seventeen and a half outs on Bryce Elder. The second 679 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: bet labor Torres over one and a half hits runs 680 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: in RBIs minus one h eight that is on the 681 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 1: other side of that matchup, So hopefully we can kill 682 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: two birds with one stone there, and then Ronald mccunya 683 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 1: over point five runs this one also courtesy of the 684 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: Betting Pros prop bet cheat sheet over point five runs 685 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: at minus one fourteen. So we're sticking in that one 686 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: game here for our favorite bets, Bobba, what do you 687 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: have for the people today? 688 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 2: I like it a lot. I'll stick with that game too, 689 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 2: Matt Olson. We've got Charlie Morton on the flip side 690 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 2: who's been dreadful over three hits runs and RBI's at 691 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 2: plus one forty. I'm gonna keep running the Jackson Merril 692 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 2: train because the Olsen hit for us on Wednesday also 693 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 2: a to home run. Jackson Merril's been hitting for us 694 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 2: as well, and Jackson Merril gets to face Davis Martin 695 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 2: Today's over three hits runs at rbys at plus one 696 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 2: forty five, and then we'll stick with We talked about 697 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 2: the Mets in their thirty plus home run guys one 698 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 2: being mister Juan Soto, and he's been nuclear hot as well, 699 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 2: so we'll keep riding that train against the Washington Nationals 700 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 2: over three hits runs RBIs at plus one thirty. Really 701 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 2: liking the Studs tonight and some very favorable matchups. 702 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 1: I like it. I like it a lot. We're only 703 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: down to a couple days left in the betting season 704 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 1: for Major League Baseball, so make sure you guys are 705 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 1: checking out the propat Chie sheet if you're looking to 706 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: play some bets. This is the time of year where 707 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: the books are really focused on football. There's college football. 708 00:29:58,520 --> 00:29:59,959 Speaker 1: You might get some lines that aren't quite as shit 709 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: as they were in April. And may Let's take a 710 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: look at the home run board and see if we 711 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 1: have any movement today. Looks like Positive Grouch got one back. 712 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 1: Whips is still in first at sixty two, Positive Grouch 713 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 1: at sixty one, Bees at sixty George at fifty nine, 714 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 1: tied with the Fisher King in fourth place there. So 715 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: we are really coming down to the stretch here, and 716 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 1: I honestly it's still anybody's game at this point. Right 717 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 1: you have a week where you hit three home runs 718 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: that could be the deciding factor for any of those 719 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: top teams there. And shout out to Wokee Penguin, who's 720 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: been on the leaderboard all year. Kelly has dominated this 721 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 1: contest internally. I think this is the second year in 722 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: a row now, if I'm not mistaken, forty four home 723 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: runs in the top twenty on the leader board. But 724 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: that Sammy Sosa Jersey is still up for grabs. So 725 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: make sure you guys are making your home run calls 726 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: in the Fantasy pros. Discord, Bubba, where are you going 727 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: for your home run call today? My friend? 728 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 2: Yeah? For me, We're sticking in that Mets Nationals game. 729 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 2: I'm going Big Meat Pete, the Polar Bear, Pete Alonzo. 730 00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 2: He's been on a home run tear of his own, 731 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 2: and I think the Mets have a monster night against 732 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 2: the Nationals and Big Meat Pete that's part of that. 733 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:09,959 Speaker 1: He's had a really good season. I know that like 734 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: in the middle of the year he kind of cooled 735 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: off a little bit, but at the end, line for 736 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 1: Pilonzo has been fantastic. 737 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 2: Is he a free agent? Is he going to be 738 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 2: headed to free agency? He gets an opt out so 739 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 2: he will be a free agent. Yes, he'll be testing 740 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 2: that market again. 741 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure after the year he's had, I wouldn't 742 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: blame him for wanting to test that market. For my 743 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: home run call, I am going to stick with one 744 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: of the earlier bets, Ronald Acuna Junior up against Charlie Morton. 745 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: It's been an interesting year for Akunya. I was listening 746 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: to a podcast the other day where somebody was talking 747 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: about him as a top five pick for next year. 748 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 1: I've also seen people say that he's not even a 749 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 1: top two round pick. He'll be a very interesting name 750 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: to follow into the offseason. Let's just do a couple 751 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: more questions before we said you on your way today. 752 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: Ryan Nelson versus Philly, this is the question, right, do 753 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: you dance with the gal that brought you? Because he 754 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 1: brought you here, he's been carrying you to the finals. 755 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: But at the same time, Philadelphia, like I mentioned earlier, 756 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,400 Speaker 1: has the number one off in the month of September. 757 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: I have him in my home league in a championship context, 758 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: and I'm pretty sure he's going on the bench to 759 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: daily league. Haven't fully decided yet, But Bubba, where are 760 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 1: you leading on Ryan Nelson versus Philly today? 761 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 2: Eileen sit as well. A. Philly's offense is a juggernaut. 762 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 2: It's nice that it's in Arizona. It is the piggyback 763 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 2: of Taiwan Walker Walker Buehler, So I could benefit Ryan Nelson, 764 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 2: but Eileen sit unless you are desperate for counting stats. 765 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's fair. You know, Friday through Sunday 766 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 1: you can kind of evaluate your head to head match 767 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: up and see, like, Okay, my era is seven eighty 768 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: six for the week, I might as well start him. 769 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: If you're sitting on a one to seventy five era 770 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 1: and you're trying to hug that, you probably shouldn't. Is 771 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: Jack Lighter going to pitch on Sunday. I believe he is. 772 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: Let me just double check that. Yes, he's still lined 773 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 1: up to face the Marlins on Sunday, as far as 774 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: I'm seeing it, Bubba, you interested in that one? For 775 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: Jack Lighter? 776 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 2: Definitely. Lighter has been much much better as the season 777 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 2: has gone along. So very excited to see him face Miami. 778 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to grill joeyp on Jack Lighter when 779 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: he comes back, and he'll face the NEPO baby allegations, 780 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 1: but I don't I think that he's probably beating them 781 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: at this point. One more question for the show. Would 782 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 1: you prefer to keep Nolan McLain or Kate Horton. I 783 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: prefer McClain, as much as Horton has been great this year. 784 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: I don't know how much I expected to carry over 785 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,520 Speaker 1: in the next year. This is like reminiscent of Jeremy 786 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: Lynn stype. Stuff like this is you know, four and 787 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: runs and ten starts or something like that. Will it 788 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,719 Speaker 1: carry over? Probably not mclin's. I think a lot more 789 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: sustainable down the road. But you agree there, Bubba, Yeah, McLain. 790 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 2: For me as well, I think there's a much higher 791 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 2: ceiling in the strikeout appeal is what gets it for me. 792 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,479 Speaker 2: Horton's been good, but I don't know how good this 793 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 2: can be for much longer. 794 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, people are gonna win a lot of 795 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 1: money because of him this year, but that's when you 796 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: probably should be tapping out because he's going to be expensive. 797 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: Those overall numbers, the Rookie of the Year trophy, he'll 798 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 1: have on a shelf. He's going to be expensive heading 799 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 1: in the next year. But I think, guys, that will 800 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: wrap it up for us today and just about for 801 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 1: the season. Now we're down to our final three shows. 802 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: I only have one more left with Bubba.
