It is me 4 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,279 Speaker 1: Chris Welsh hosting pretty much through the rest of the 5 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 1: season with the great and powerful Joe A. Rico.

You know. 16 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 2: I did this last year and I've you know, periodically 17 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 2: been on shows throughout the season. But it's fine, man. 18 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 2: It's good when we get to do shows together. You 19 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 2: and I have done a lot of shows over the years. 20 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: So we got a little bit of a shorthand now 21 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 2: we got Joe piece of p out here, we got 22 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 2: that cranky old man out of here, so let's have 23 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 2: some fun. 24 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,759 Speaker 1: Brother, Yeah, I get all that cranky stuff out of here, 25 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,040 Speaker 1: baby Billy asking on the football side, how I'm doing. 26 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: If you did not see it, we dropped over the 27 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: weekend the Hot sau It's a hot Takes episode where 28 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 1: we consumed Hot Sauce, Me Bogman and Andrew Ericson and it's 29 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: a pretty decent listen through like thirty minutes in the 30 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: last thirty minutes just off the reels, absolutely awful. 31 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 2: Phenomenal episode. It was amazing. I hope we can recreate 32 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 2: that on the baseball side.

Billy Wagner is up. All right, 64 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: Let's get to the news and notes. We've got some 65 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: prospecting today. We've got bets, we've got homers, we got 66 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: a ton of stuff. But we got some news and 67 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: some headlines. Let's start with what kind of dominated my weekend. 68 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: I did some CBS hits Arico this weekend, and both 69 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: of them back to back, had a heavy concentration, obviously 70 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: because you have like East Coast bias on there. But 71 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: with this fall apart of the New York Yankees, the Yankees, 72 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: there's so many steps here. First off, we're just swept 73 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: by the Marlins, and shocking to me a little bit, 74 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: by the way, the Marlins have a five hundred record. 75 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: They're fifty five and fifty five right now, which is 76 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: absolutely ridiculous. But they were just swept by the Marlins. 77 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: In all of that mess, you had them completely blow 78 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: a game Arico where they had the lead, every single 79 00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: one of the pieces that they traded for Blue the game, 80 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: even hosea Cabiero Cabeiro with a error. They lost. Then 81 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: the next game up you have more base running errors, 82 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: jazz getting tagged up, horrible stuff, and then top it 83 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: all off, Luis Heel came back on Sunday, gave up 84 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: five runs and three and three thirds. Did not look 85 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: fantastic in that one. So I guess the first question 86 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: is is do you have any take on the Yankees. 87 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: We had talked about it on the Betting Show. I 88 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: think they're falling apart in a really bad way. And 89 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: the final piece of it this week and was Luis Heil, 90 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: who a lot of us were kind of holding on 91 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: to just not having the good, I mean the good 92 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,119 Speaker 1: version of Luis hell stuff. 93 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 2: We did a show on betting Pros last week and 94 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 2: I like went out of my way to be like 95 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 2: the Yankees, Bullpen Welsh, it's fantastic, what are you talking about? 96 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: And then remember when I was like, unquestioned, the Padres 97 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: is the best. You're like, I don't know, well, you're 98 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 1: like the Yankees, and then bang bang boom. 99 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 2: Jeez, it was ugly stuff. Now, the thing with the 100 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 2: Yankees is if you look back over any period of 101 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: time two weeks, a month, six weeks, whatever, and you 102 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 2: look at how they raid out, as you know, offensively 103 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 2: defensively pitching. The numbers look generally pretty good. It's just 104 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: these timely errors and a lot of what I see 105 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: I follow some New York I mean, we all know 106 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 2: a lot of people in New York. A lot of 107 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 2: them tweet about the Yankees, and they're starting to get 108 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 2: to the point where it seems like they all want 109 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 2: Aaron Boone gone. The talent on the roster is pretty phenomenal. 110 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 2: I don't think anybody can deny that Judge Chisholm freed Rodan, 111 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 2: all the closers, et cetera. It seems like they just 112 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 2: don't have their head screwed on right. So this doesn't 113 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 2: seem like a personnel issue to me. This seems like 114 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 2: Aaron Boone is probably done in the off season if 115 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 2: he doesn't figure out how to get them actually focused 116 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,119 Speaker 2: like that Jazz Chishm play to pop up the second 117 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 2: where he got tagged up on what is he doing 118 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 2: like base cadet behavior. I don't and people are blaming 119 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 2: the first base coach. It's like the team is a mess. 120 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: The team is a mess. 121 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: But remember the report the Austin Wells thing too, from 122 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: like a week ago. The Austin Wells thing where he 123 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: just had the blunder where he was at second he 124 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: got tagged up. They got tagged up on a fly ball, 125 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 1: he just forgot where it was or it was a 126 00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: ground bomb. Sorry, it was like he just forgot what 127 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: it was. There's mental lapses and the thing where it 128 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 1: becomes like fantasy relevant. Shout out of Van Rod's a Yankee. 129 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 1: Van Rodd just sent some cheers in which you can 130 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: do cheering on on Twitch because as a Yankee fan 131 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: hearing this that, yeah, I think Boone is his job 132 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: is going to be really dicey at the end of 133 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: this year. I'm worried that you have a lot of 134 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: these pieces that are going to fall apart. And you know, 135 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: even looking at Luis Heil for just a second, I'm 136 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 1: actually surprised. I thought I was going to see really 137 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: low zone percentages with his pitches. He was actually fifty 138 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 1: percent or higher on everything. But dude, they were swinging 139 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 1: at nothing outside of the zone. He had a nine 140 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: percent outside the zone swing rate. So everything he was 141 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: thrown in people were they were just offering at. There 142 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: were really no whiffs. He wasn't getting the type of 143 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 1: strikeouts he was pitching to a lot of contact sitting 144 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: ninety six. I just I'm not sure, especially with the 145 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: heels walk issues, I'm not sure that he's a super viable, 146 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: trustworthy fantasy option moving forward. So I want to watch, 147 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: but before I go nuts. But I'm not a big 148 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: Louise Heel guy, and I think there's scenarios where I 149 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 1: might I might consider moving on to some other less 150 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: worthy options. I don't know, if you feel you like, 151 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: what kind of leash do you want to give Heel. 152 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 2: I was not a heel guy at all last year. 153 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 2: Like I feel like every single day I was writing 154 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 2: up sell high on Louise heel piece just because you know, 155 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 2: the walk rate was high, a lot of the expected 156 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 2: numbers were a lot higher than the actual numbers. But 157 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: I think I want to give him a couple of 158 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 2: more starts. Not to say that what we saw yesterday 159 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 2: was encouraging, but I think when we see guys return, 160 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 2: there can be a week or two where they're still 161 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 2: trying to get things right. So his next start is 162 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 2: going to come against Houston and then after that at 163 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 2: Saint Louis. So what I would probably recommend is you 164 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 2: leave him on the bench for that Houston one. See 165 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 2: if he's able to correct a few things, and then 166 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 2: Saint Louis is a much more palatable matchup. I think 167 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 2: that one. I'd be probably willing to use him on 168 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 2: August fifteenth if everything stays according to plan. But right now, 169 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 2: I think he's riding the pine until we see him 170 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 2: give out some better performances. 171 00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: You wish he could be who everything Christopher Sanchez is. 172 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: I think that was our all the hopes. Christopher Sanchez 173 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: this weekend, absolutely dominant, six strikeouts, eight innings, shutout ball 174 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: does it again? Also, Johan Doran closed out the Tigers 175 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: again on Sunday, worked a perfect ninth inning he had. 176 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: I think his very first appearance over the weekend was 177 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: like a four pitch outing. Absolutely looks disgusting right now. 178 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: Chris Sanchez top ten SP rest of season yeay or nay? 179 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 2: Yeah? I would I would say yay. He's SB twelve 180 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 2: to date and some guys ahead of him are Yvald 181 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 2: Matthew Boyd. You know, I could see him making a 182 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,199 Speaker 2: jump into that top ten, and I mean next season, 183 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 2: I wonder how high he's gonna go, Like he is 184 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,559 Speaker 2: phenomenal that change up the team context, Like I'm in 185 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 2: love with Chris Sanchez. He's phenomenal and I still cannot 186 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 2: believe that he was not an All Star. 187 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: Do you yeah, I know stupid. Do you think there's 188 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: a scenario where Dran is the number one closer in 189 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,559 Speaker 1: baseball now? Because you've got Hater who's been great, That 190 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: team's a little washy Mason Miller with the Padres look sexy, 191 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: but you did have like Robert Suarez get some opportunity 192 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: yesterday was a multi ing thing. But like Dran yay 193 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: or nay top two closer in baseball rest of season. 194 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 2: I think he's top three or four, not to pick nets, 195 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,439 Speaker 2: but I think for me it's probably Hater and Diaz 196 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 2: one and two, and then you know mun Yoh's Duran. 197 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 2: It's it's close, like he's in that. I'd think i'd 198 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 2: probably have him third. If I was going to redo 199 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 2: rankings today, I think I probably have him third behind 200 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 2: Diaz and Hater. 201 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: That's where I have him. That's where I have him currently, 202 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: But I kind of want to put him into one. 203 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: And it's just just such a boost to all these 204 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,559 Speaker 1: other pitchers. You know, Lozardo been a little act, but 205 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: it's like he's going to come in and protect these games. 206 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: So very very exciting and very very good. Jacob Mizarowski 207 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: contusion to his tibia placed on the il they do. 208 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: They are saying that this is going to be like 209 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: a minimal stint. He's gonna miss two starts. He's gonna 210 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 1: come back, man, like I can kind of preach in 211 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: the maybe trade out market. I actually was semi considering. 212 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: We did this Betting Pro show on Futures. The one 213 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: thing in that show we didn't talk about that I 214 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: was kind of sitting on was Jacob Mizerowski Rookie of 215 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,439 Speaker 1: the Year odds. He's round two and a half to one, 216 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 1: but you take a couple of these two starts out. 217 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: They're also not letting him go deep into games. This 218 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: is brutal for fantasy owners. It's nice that he's only 219 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 1: going to miss the two and he'll be back. I'm 220 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: not one hundred percent sure on this. Oh okay, and 221 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: Kelly just told me, our producer, that the Future show 222 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 1: is actually dropping today, so you guys can see that 223 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: where we talk about it. So go to Betting Pros 224 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 1: you can see rica myself, Seth Wilcock. We did a 225 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: MLB futures for the month of August talking about, you know, 226 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 1: some of our favorite props and world series and stuff, 227 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: and I talk about well, I don't talk about Miserowski 228 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: and there when we were talking about awards, because I 229 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,319 Speaker 1: just that him not going deep into games worried me. 230 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: Now you got this contusion minimal stent, but logan Henderson 231 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 1: was able to come up. He allowed one run, three 232 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: hits in four in one third of an inning. Do 233 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 1: you think there's a scenario where Henderson can stay up 234 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 1: once Misroowski's up and or do you think maybe they 235 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: like do a piggyback situation if they could figure out 236 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: the roster construction, maybe you have miz and Henderson each 237 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: go four. Because I don't know why Henderson would go 238 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: back down, But I'm also I don't know how much 239 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: they trust Misrowski. So do you trust Henderson to get 240 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: some some production rest of season. 241 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the thing with Henderson. I don't see a 242 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 2: reason why they would send him down. But I would 243 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 2: have told you the same thing before they sent him 244 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 2: down last time, because he had three phenomenal starts and 245 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 2: they still sent him back. Unless Jose Quintana or Quinn 246 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 2: Priester turned into a complete pumpkin and start really giving 247 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,199 Speaker 2: up a lot of runs. I don't know how this 248 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 2: is gonna shake out. Now. Going to a six man 249 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 2: rotation might make some sense, just because you know Quintana 250 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 2: is having a good year, but I don't know how 251 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 2: much you rely on him. The same kind of thing 252 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 2: with Priester Woodrow coming back from a long layoff an injury. 253 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 2: Maybe they do go to a six man plus a 254 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 2: couple of rookies there and Henderson and Miserowski. Maybe they 255 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:01,959 Speaker 2: do pay back then maybe they go six man. I 256 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 2: don't really know, to be honest with you, which I 257 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 2: know isn't what the people want to hear. But considering 258 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 2: they sent down Henderson before after he had been perfect 259 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 2: through three starts, I really don't know how to predict 260 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 2: what's gonna happen in Milwaukee. 261 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: It's pretty tough. I kind of think, like from a 262 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 1: spots start world, I might try to pick up Henderson 263 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: right now and see what's going on. But I think 264 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: there's also possibility, kind of like my thoughts with Miserowski, 265 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: that both just eat into each other, or regardless when 266 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: Miserowski's back, they're going to keep the babying going on 267 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: seventy five pitches with Miserowski might not get him too 268 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 1: the fifth ever, so you're gonna lose wins. You just 269 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: have some other good counting stats, but that's a burder one. 270 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: Couple other pieces here. Dylan Cease was great. Nine strikeouts, 271 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 1: five innings nowhere and runs. God, we've been waiting for this. 272 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: It's I love the bullpen. Help for a guy like Cease. 273 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 1: Just let him go five every single game, get him 274 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 1: out of there and go throw to the bullpen because 275 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,559 Speaker 1: you got twelve hundred amazing relievers. So this is kind 276 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: of my thought that we could get into this area. 277 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: But he had to start turning around, and he did, Joe, 278 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: So I like our confidence level is moving up, right, man? 279 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 2: I felt like I was going crazy banging my head 280 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 2: against the wall with Dylan Ceese. You know, every week 281 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 2: saying stick with him started him blah blah blah and 282 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 2: getting blown up every single time. But this is why 283 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,599 Speaker 2: you you know, some people will not like it in 284 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 2: the comments when we talk about the expected numbers underlying stats. 285 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 2: This is why you do it because a guy like 286 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 2: Dylan Cees, he's still striking out everybody on her thirty 287 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,439 Speaker 2: percent strikeout right, The walks aren't too bad. All of 288 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 2: the era estimators are good. This is the guy you 289 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 2: stick with and you buy low on. It's like Pablo Lopez. 290 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 2: I think it was last year, maybe the year before, 291 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 2: where it started off like a five ERA in the 292 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: first half. All the underlying numbers are good. You got 293 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 2: to still believe in those guys, especially when the talent 294 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 2: is as highest Dylan cees. But what I will say 295 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:38,199 Speaker 2: is that I think next year he's going to be 296 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 2: a great buy because he kind of does this every 297 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 2: other year thing where it's a phenomenal season and then 298 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 2: he kind of takes a step back a little bit. 299 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 2: You always want to buy the dip on a guy 300 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 2: like Dylan Ce's. 301 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: For me, I'm with you. What the hell is wrong 302 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: with James Wood? What is going on? James Wood? Zero 303 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: for three, a walk, two strikeouts on Sunday now hitting 304 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: two twenty six in fifty games since June first. Uh, 305 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 1: he's got eight homers thirty two percent k percentage, but 306 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: he's got a two twenty six three thirty six slash 307 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 1: since June first, he has been abysmal. What the hell 308 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: is wrong with James Wood trade deadlines for fantasy or 309 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: they're probably still a little bit this week A lot 310 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: of people, I mean, Wonke, I don't know what's wrong 311 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: with Woods, but he costs me a lot in our 312 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: insiders league. That's one hundred percent James Wood analysis rookie 313 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: slump sometimes, which I do kind of agree with. But 314 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: you know, the thing that we were really liking with 315 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: James Wood this his ability to hit all sides of 316 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: the field. Lower the K percentage. K percentage is back up. 317 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: He's in a horrific slump. What do you think is 318 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: wrong with James Wood? And is it to the level 319 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: that you want to get out for whatever you can 320 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: at the which is probably still a high ish enough 321 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: like Marker, you know, twenty four homers, fourteen slen bases 322 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: two fifty eight. If if someone does peruse his savant page, 323 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: you know they're to see the red and stuff like that. 324 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: There's still a lot that's good, but it has been 325 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: bad since June first, So it's either do you think 326 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: it is going yeah right here, Stony said batting one 327 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: nineteen since July third? Do you think it can bounce 328 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: back so you don't want to sell him low? Or 329 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: do you want to get out before your trade deadlines 330 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 1: are done because he's holding down our teams. 331 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 2: No, I think this is a situation where, like a 332 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 2: couple of people in the comments have said, he's a rookie, 333 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 2: they're going to go throw ups and downs. He wasn't 334 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 2: going to be, you know, playing at that pace that 335 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 2: he was early on for the rest of his career. 336 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 2: You are going to see ups and downs, especially for 337 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 2: a guy who strikes out as much as James Wood does. 338 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 2: He's like a thirty percent strikeout rate guy, and when 339 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 2: you're anywhere in that like twenty eight and above range, 340 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 2: you are going to be prone to some cold and 341 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 2: hot streaks. Add on to that that he is a 342 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 2: rookie who's still only played I mean, he's at one 343 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty eight major league games now, so he's 344 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 2: kind of at the point where we're running out of 345 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 2: excuses for like adjusting the major league pitching and stuff, 346 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 2: but not really like he's still so young. James Wood 347 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 2: is twenty two years old. I think this is just 348 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 2: a cold spell, And honestly, I'd kind of be on 349 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 2: the other side of those trades if somebody wants to 350 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 2: get red of James Wood because I think that he's 351 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 2: just toast. Now I'd be more than happy to buy 352 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 2: in on him. 353 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: Still, James Wood or Kyle Stowers rest of season. If 354 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: someone offer you Kyle Stowers for your James Wood, not 355 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: in Dynasty, just Redraft right now, would you do it? 356 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 2: I think I would take Wood. I mean, as much 357 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 2: as I like Stours, I don't know how much I 358 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 2: believe in the batting average. He's got a three sixty 359 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 2: five babbot, which I think brings that batting average up 360 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 2: a lot more than it should be. He's like a 361 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 2: two forty two to fifty hitter. In my mind, I 362 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 2: would take James Wood. I would go with. 363 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: Jamshen was he going to be a two forty or 364 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: two fifty hitter. James Wood's a two twenty hitter right now. 365 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: Here's my problem with James Wood. He is not doing 366 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: anything besides fastballs, and the league is obviously adjusting. He 367 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: has a three thirty six average against fastballs. Awesome. Expect 368 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: a batting average against same thing like in three hundreds awesome. 369 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: He's hitting sub two hundred against everything else against breaking 370 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: pitches sliders two h six, curveball one eighty two, change 371 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: up one eighty four, sweepers one ninety seven, split fingers 372 00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: one fifty eight. Everything that breaks that isn't some variation 373 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: of a fastball he can't hit right now, and is 374 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 1: that going to happen this way through? I actually might 375 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: take Stours rest of the way through in Redraft. I'm 376 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 1: a believer of James Wood as a whole, but he's 377 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 1: not and he you know, he's hitting like two forty 378 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 1: against I think lefties and two eighty against righty's, Like, 379 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: you know, it's ball hard, averages, barrels, he does all 380 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,439 Speaker 1: that stuff, but he's a one trick pony right now, 381 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: and he's gonna have to drive counts to fastballs because 382 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: he's not doing anything else. I'm just not sure, Like 383 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,479 Speaker 1: can he break back, Yeah, absolutely. 384 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 2: Back after the year. 385 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: This could all get back to that awesome, super cool 386 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,159 Speaker 1: James Wood. I'm just not sure it's there. And I 387 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 1: think I might actually take Kyle Stowers rest of the 388 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: way through, even though I'm an overall believer. I think 389 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 1: it's a great time to buying Dynasty. 390 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 2: By the way, Yeah, I know, I totally get if 391 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 2: anybody wants to go with Stowurs. I just feel like 392 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 2: what we saw with Wood. It's more fantasy, projectable and time. 393 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 2: That's a poor way to phrase it, but he steals base. 394 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 2: I think the power is within the same ballpark. I mean, 395 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 2: Stowers might have more raw power, but it's twenty four 396 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 2: homers versus twenty five homers for the season, so I 397 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 2: think that they're pretty damn close overall for the power metrics. 398 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,880 Speaker 2: But then you got the speed with Wood. The lineups 399 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 2: is probably a little bit better in Miami. I wouldn't 400 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 2: fault to somebody for going with Stours. I just I've 401 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,679 Speaker 2: become a believer in would over the course of the year. 402 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 2: It's funny because I was fading James Wood. It was 403 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 2: one of my worst calls of the preseason, was the 404 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 2: fade James Wood. But I think I'm still buying in 405 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 2: on him right now if you can. Maybe Stours is 406 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 2: the line where it's you know, you can go either 407 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 2: way on it. 408 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 1: We're gonna be answering some questions, so just throwing it 409 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: out to everybody if you want to drop any questions 410 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: in the chat. We're starring some of them. We got 411 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 1: a couple things they hit you first, so make sure 412 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: you stick around. Whether it's you're watching on the video side. 413 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: If you're hanging live, we will get to some of 414 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 1: the peanuts and crackerjacks here in just a tiny bit. 415 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: Little rookie, lookie, some rookies that have just been hot. 416 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: Colson Montgomery two for four now, heading two fifty six, 417 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: seven homers, just under his first like one hundred plate appearances. 418 00:18:55,400 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: He's got twenty three RBI. Very vindicated, I feel. I 419 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: remember I think I may have brought him up in 420 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 1: once or twice on the prospecting segment. But Colson Montgomery 421 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 1: has been awesome. This one feels really good because I'm 422 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: the only person that ever has talked about this guy, 423 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: and unfortunately it has been in the negative for the 424 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 1: last year and a half. But Jacob Marcy, if you 425 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: followed me in the Arizona Fall League a couple of 426 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: years ago, I was doing about him. I had some 427 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 1: scouts that were like, eh, and then it did not 428 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: work out. Jacob Marcy three games up with the Marlins. 429 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,199 Speaker 1: He has eight at bats, he has I believe six here, 430 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: maybe it's four hits, four extra base hits. He has 431 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,719 Speaker 1: more walks than strikeouts. He looks like an absolute demon 432 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 1: right now. He's a high OBP guy. He's walking, he's 433 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 1: making some really good contact, just throwing it out there. 434 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 1: Jacob Marcy has been dude level and that is an 435 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: old school guy for me. And then another hot rookie, 436 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: Warming Burnable, who's hitting five hundred fourteen of twenty eight. 437 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: He's got three homers, eight RBI through seven here, any 438 00:19:55,880 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: thoughts are you Warming Burnable, Jacob Marci, Evenkolson Montgomery? What's 439 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 1: your pickup level on all three of these guys? 440 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 2: So for Colson Montgomery, some of the underlying data worries 441 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 2: me a little bit still. I mean, this is a 442 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 2: phenomenal way to start your career, no question, but he 443 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,719 Speaker 2: still got a seventeen percent swinging strike rate, seventy eight 444 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 2: percent zone contact rate. Those are not great numbers. I 445 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 2: would say that if somebody is super excited about Montgomery 446 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 2: right now, they're in big need of a third basement 447 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 2: or something, maybe throw him in as a second piece 448 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,199 Speaker 2: into two for one trade if somebody is willing to buy, 449 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 2: because I think for the rest of the season, I 450 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 2: think that he is somebody that you can kind of 451 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 2: move on from. Not the drop, but I think if 452 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 2: you can sell high on him, you probably should. Marcy 453 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 2: is almost like another version of Chandler Simpson with a 454 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 2: little bit less speed and more power. I think, well, 455 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 2: welse can speak more to the prospect side of it, 456 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 2: but that's kind of what the general profile looks like. 457 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 2: Really good on bas skills, like you mentioned, I think 458 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 2: that he is probably the most viable pickup in this group, 459 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 2: but we're at the time of year where you're looking 460 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 2: for specific categories. If you're in a row league, you 461 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 2: can know where you are where you need to catch up. 462 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 2: If it's speed. Jacob Marcy is a fantastic ad with 463 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 2: I mean Bernabell, I mean Vladd. Sedler made the joke 464 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 2: that as soon as you pick him up, he's going 465 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 2: to be cooling Berna Bell, because this is not something 466 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 2: that you can really expect. 467 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 1: See. I'm not into him maintain for the long run. 468 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 2: If you want to pick him up right now while 469 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 2: they're still in cools, my Blue Jays are there for 470 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 2: the next three days, maybe you get another couple of 471 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 2: home runs out of him, or a good couple of 472 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 2: games just riding out the end of the hot streak. 473 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 2: But I don't think that he's somebody that's like a 474 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 2: Muss roster player. I'd probably prioritize it as Marcy Montgomery 475 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 2: and then Berna Bell. 476 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: Those are some prospects that are up in the majors. 477 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: You might have thought it's done, but friends, it's not done. Yes, 478 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 1: we still have an August where we are prospecting with 479 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 1: me the Welsh, Yes, we are still going to be prospecting. 480 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna be talking about some prospects that we could 481 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: be seeing up this month. Obviously, the season is ticking 482 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: down a bit. There are some big names that are 483 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: on people's minds. There's some prospects that you might not 484 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: just know, if I'm being frank with you. Things are 485 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: going to really pick up in the back half of 486 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: August in September where we're gonna get crazy names. But 487 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 1: there's still some guys we should take a look at. 488 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 1: So let's do that, and let's kick it off with 489 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 1: probably the most popular name of all the names that 490 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: we've talked about a bunch, Bubba Chandler. Yes, the Bubba 491 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: Chandler watch has been I mean, gray beards, adding twelve 492 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 1: years to our lives, just waiting for Bubba Chandler to 493 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: come up. Will he ever come up? Here's what I 494 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: say to you. I don't care, and no, he's never 495 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: coming up, Bubba. So this is the negative. We're gonna 496 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 1: start here. He cannot string good starts together. After starting 497 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: the month hot, he had his first two starts where 498 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: I believe he went six, gave up nowhearned runs. We 499 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: were like, okay, sweet, we're gonna start getting into it. 500 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: At five earned runs. In his last start on July thirtieth, 501 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: he walked four, struck out two. He's now given up 502 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:52,360 Speaker 1: twelve earned runs over his last three starts. Now, maybe 503 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 1: the good news is that he has gone five innings 504 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: in four of the five of his last five starts, 505 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: so that's good. But regardless, like if the Pirates do 506 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 1: bring him up, because I think they've screwed this situation up. 507 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: That's my personal take on this. There's definitely Bubba Chandler 508 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: issues in this, but I think and how they've used him, 509 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: there could be confidence issues across. I feel like this 510 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 1: has been screwed up. What were the Pirates playing for? 511 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: Let's figure this out at the major league level. They've 512 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: screwed this entire thing up. So my main point is 513 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 1: I don't care if he comes back up because I'm 514 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: not sure we're gonna all feel a little bit interested. 515 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: The walks have been an issue all season long. He 516 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: still has a great, big power fastball. He'll be a 517 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: strikeout option. I don't think he's gonna have clean innings, 518 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: and he doesn't really go super deep into it, so 519 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: I'm at a level I don't really care anymore. I 520 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: know we had people last week asking should be stash. No, 521 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: you should not have any stashing of redraft in Bubba Chandler. 522 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 1: But Rico, what do you think if he gets called up, 523 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: will you have any interest? 524 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 2: I think I will, just because there's a part of 525 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 2: me that has kind of spun this narrative in my 526 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 2: head of he's not performing well in the minors because 527 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 2: he's just bored at the point there's no reason for 528 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 2: him to be there. You know how many starts he's 529 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 2: made in the miners in his career eighty He's made 530 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 2: eighty minor league starts, which is just ridiculous. And I 531 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:10,440 Speaker 2: think that there is a part of him that's probably like, 532 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 2: what am I doing here? I'm just kind of spinning wheels, 533 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 2: wasting time. Maybe when he gets called up, if he 534 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 2: ever gets called up, that'll kind of change something in him. 535 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 2: Of okay, and now it's go time. How much go 536 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,120 Speaker 2: time will it possibly be pitching for the Pirates this year. 537 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 2: I'm not sure, but if he does get called up, 538 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 2: it'll be hard for me to not stick him into 539 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 2: the lineup. I've been holding him a TGFBI the whole season, 540 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 2: and I feel like at this point, if he gets 541 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 2: called up, I'm gonna have to put him in the lineup. 542 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: August fifteenth is a super important date. That's the date 543 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: where players, if they get called up after, cannot accru 544 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: forty five days on the major league roster, which would 545 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 1: lose their prospect eligibility. So the reason you want to 546 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 1: know that is teams can manipulate like the innings or 547 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: at bats so they don't graduate, and then they don't 548 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: graduate just by hanging on the roster. So after August fifteenth, 549 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 1: any guy could come up and they could still have 550 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 1: all that extra stuff for next year. So I definitely 551 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 1: think there is a the Pirates will at some point 552 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 1: soon be like, hey, you've earned this, We're going to 553 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 1: give you a shot. He gets two or three starts 554 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 1: at the majors. I'm just not sure the level like 555 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 1: care anymore. And that's the big thing. And that August 556 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,920 Speaker 1: fifteenth date is important probably to every single guy that 557 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about. And as we move forward, 558 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 1: so let's go to the next player here, We're moving 559 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: to some guys that I think, or at least this 560 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: guy that I think it is very close. And I 561 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: think there was word out that the Orioles were considering him. 562 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 1: I've talked about him a couple of times. Dylan Beavers 563 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: with the Baltimore Orioles. Beaver's big dude, big stats, sixteen homers, 564 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 1: twenty two stolen bases, three ZHO seven, batting average four 565 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: to twenty one OBP beautiful. Beaver's finished July hitting two 566 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: ninety one, sixteen homers and fourteen stolen bases. So went 567 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 1: nuts there. And then on August third, his most recent game, 568 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: they're off on Mondays, get a nine total base game, 569 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 1: hitting two homers. Now Oriols doing nothing. You know, they're 570 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 1: not playing for anything, but they are playing to develop. 571 00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: You know, Kobe Mayo's got to develop. I think a 572 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 1: lot of people focus on Pasio. I think Beaver's is 573 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 1: the guy that we've got to look at in the outfield, 574 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 1: especially after they traded Cedric Mullins some interesting stuff versus 575 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: his triple A underlying stuff versus this year. Last year 576 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: average EV eighty three miles per hour. This year it's 577 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: up to eighty nine. Max EV one oh four this 578 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: year up to one ten. And his hard hit percentage, 579 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: he's not a big monster, hard hit guy, even though 580 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 1: he's a big dude six five, two oh six. His 581 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 1: hard hit percentage was around twenty percent triple A last year, 582 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 1: thirty eight percent this year. You know, So is he 583 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: going to be this big masher? I don't know, but 584 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: you know it's gonna benefit is the ballpark for him? 585 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: So I'm a I'm a I'm a big buyer of 586 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: the beavers. Are you a buyer of the beavers? 587 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 2: There we go just looking at like what they're trotting 588 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 2: out there? Dylan Carlson and center Jeremiah Jackson as a 589 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 2: designated hitter, Like what are we doing here? You know? 590 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 2: Call up beavers? I think Hesin Kirstad might be heard 591 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 2: or something. Or he's been playing pretty poorly, so maybe 592 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 2: he doesn't get another call up this year. But play 593 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 2: the kids, like what are we doing? Play them or 594 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 2: tree them? Do something in Baltimore, and they don't seem 595 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 2: to want to do either. They want to keep them 596 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 2: in the miners or bring them up and put them 597 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:05,959 Speaker 2: on the bench. I don't care. 598 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 1: And he's probably one of the most interesting close to 599 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: Triple A prospects I think that you should pay attention 600 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 1: to right now. We've had so many of these guys 601 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,199 Speaker 1: that are up. If you're actually looking for offensive impact. 602 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 1: When he gets called up, boom, but it might be 603 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 1: like eleven days until they do it because of that deadline. 604 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,919 Speaker 1: Now I got three other names for you, one more 605 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: hitter and a couple pitchers that will blast through. Nobody 606 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: has been hotter though, over the last like two weeks 607 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 1: than JJ Weatherhold JJ Weatherholt, who was drafted last year. 608 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: We've seen so many of the drafted guys already come up. 609 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 1: He is up to Triple A already. Just went three 610 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: for five, two run homer, three RBI on Sunday in 611 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 1: Triple A since being called up to Triple A. So 612 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: these are Triple A numbers three forty four average, six homers. 613 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: Twelve of his twenty one hits in Triple A have 614 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,360 Speaker 1: been extra base JJ Weatherhold. I've said this a bunch 615 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: has a Corbyn Carroll like quality to me on the 616 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: infield body swing. I'm just a big fan of his. 617 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: He's got some crazy underlying stuff too, for you know, 618 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: like a smaller ish guy. Incredible batspeed, ninety two average 619 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 1: EV with a fifty two percent hard hit rate, plus 620 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 1: he's got a really good launch angle. There's a legitimate 621 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 1: chance of cardinals. We're going to take a look at 622 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 1: him past August fifteenth, so if he comes up, I 623 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 1: would pay attention to Weatherhold and then two pictures. I 624 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 1: want you guys to keep an eye on. Talked about 625 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: this guy decent amount. Robbie Snelling. Robbie Snelling with the Marlins. 626 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: Unfortunately we didn't see the trades happen. That's what we 627 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: really wanted. We wanted like Cabrera or our Contra to 628 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: go because Snelling has been awesome. Most recent start, he 629 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: went six innings, gave up one and runs, struck out seven, 630 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 1: walked none. Seven straight starts. Robbie Snelling has given up 631 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: two or less and he has gone five in six 632 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: of those seven starts. His velo has gone up this year, 633 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 1: added like a mile per hour on everything. He looks 634 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: absolutely dominant again and the thing I will say, and 635 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: why we're putting him on here is Jansen Junk has 636 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 1: not been good. He's been given up runs left right 637 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: that I think they're going to want to give a 638 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: give and take a look at Robbie Stelling towards the 639 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 1: end of the year. And then the last one is 640 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: a trade deadline relative player Cole Drake, who was with 641 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: the Texas Rangers traded to the Arizona Diamondbacks. You can 642 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: see twenty five years old, big lefty Diamondbacks are depleted 643 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: across the board. The pitching staff just hurt and unperforming. 644 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 1: Col Drake is super interesting. He's got a three to 645 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: three ERA on the year, ninety two strikeouts over seventy 646 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 1: eight innings, but he's got four starts in the PCL. 647 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 1: The PCL is a tough place to pitch, really tough 648 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: place to pitch, and it's gotten to him a little bit. 649 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: His first start with the Diamondbacks in the PCL, he 650 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: went five, gave up four earned runs, but he only 651 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: walked one struck out five in that start, though nice 652 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 1: low whip obviously around one the other He's got like 653 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 1: a six cyra with the Rangers in the PCL. I 654 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: think the environment really hurts. But he's got a good 655 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: strikeout to walk ratio, and I like his stuff a 656 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: lot fastball, sinker both around ninety three. He's got this 657 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 1: low v low sweepery slider that's around eighty two, but 658 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: he's lowered his usage to throw more change up for strikeouts. 659 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: It's already been talked about by the Arizona media that 660 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: we are going to see Drake this season. I don't 661 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:14,719 Speaker 1: think the Diamondbacks are going to want to lose control, 662 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: so I think after August fifteenth, cold Drake is going 663 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 1: to get called up. We'll see as long as he 664 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: maintains like the Homer stuff. But a sinker ball pitcher, 665 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: lefty in the Diamondback stadium, I think he is a 666 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: guy that we're going to want to spot start when 667 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 1: he's picked up. So Drake, Snelling, Weather, Hold Beavers and 668 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: not Bubba Chandler. Those are a lot of the guys 669 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 1: that we are taking a look at as we prospect, 670 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: with me the Welsh doing all that. All right, let's 671 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: answer a few questions and then we're gonna kind of 672 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: plow through our three out, three down and talk about 673 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: some injuries and get you guys some bets here getting 674 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: to the community. Start four for this week from j 675 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: chau Manaiyah, Woodruff, Glass, now Snell, Chris Sanchez de Grom 676 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: and Cease. Well, this has got to be the Sanchez 677 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: de Grom, Glass Now that's not gonna be and Cease 678 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: probably right? Are we having much discussion there? 679 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 2: You gotta see three of them. It's probably Manaia, Glass 680 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 2: now and Snell. 681 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: So you start Wood, You're gonna sit Glass now? 682 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 2: Well maybe not maybe since now well Snell was pretty 683 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 2: pretty Yeah Streen in that first start. I mean, it's 684 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 2: a really good problem to have here. I think I'm 685 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 2: starting to cease to Gram Sanchez, and then maybe Woodroff 686 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 2: is the fourth, just considering how he's looked. 687 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 1: I'm down with that. That's a tough one. There's probably 688 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 1: some two start stuff in there. Should I start lower 689 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: against Colorado? I am a pretty known lower guy, So yes, 690 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,080 Speaker 1: I'm actually gonna be playing on the bets for him 691 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 1: this week. Yeah. He's maintained his homers pretty well. I mean, 692 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: in the month of July he gave up two. He 693 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: hasn't had a month where he's given up more than 694 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: three homers across his starts. His stuff has been so good. 695 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: Colorado swings through, so I say yay for lower Yeah. 696 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 2: I mean historically he has had a home run problem. 697 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 2: It just hasn't really been there this year eight percent 698 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 2: homer to fly ball, less than a homer per nine. 699 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 2: He's been a revelation this year. Who would have thought 700 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 2: Welsh the big pitching pickups of the year, or Trevor 701 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 2: Rodgers and Eric Lauer. But he's been great. Man, I'd 702 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 2: start him. 703 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: It's like how we all wrote it up, Lisas is casey, 704 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: MYI is worth a two start week against two garbage 705 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 1: teams Minnesota and the Angels. 706 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 2: I would say, yes, yeah, Minnesota. 707 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: I think that one came up a couple times. 708 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 2: Van Rod also asked it, so Minnesota stinks right now? Yeah? 709 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 1: That lineup? I saw you put out that tweet after 710 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 1: the trade deadline. It's like, what are we doing with 711 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: this line? 712 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 2: I got some pushback too from people that like, this 713 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 2: is a pretty solid lineup. I'm like, can you leave 714 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 2: your fandom at the door for a second. This is brutal. 715 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:40,479 Speaker 2: Why is that? Who? 716 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 1: What are they arguing is solid about the lineup? 717 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 2: They're homers and I get it. You got to defend 718 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 2: your team to a certain extent, but like, let's be 719 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 2: honest here that line we gotta be. 720 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, we got to be real enough that it's like, 721 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: that's fine if you're like, hey, that lineup isn't that bad, 722 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: but when you play the comparison game against the rest 723 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 1: of the league, no, it's a pilot garbage. It's one 724 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 1: of the worst lineups in baseball. So let's not fool ourselves. 725 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: Muscle hamster. Shout out to Is that Doug Martin? Shout 726 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: out to Doug Martin? 727 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 2: What do we do? Oh? 728 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: That's Casey Mais. Yeah, so we just talked about that. 729 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 2: I even see that. 730 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: All right, let's see if we can do this novel. Hey, pros, 731 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: I'm in first by eight games and a ten team. 732 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: Trade deadline is Thursday, with five weeks before playoffs. How 733 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: much does woods prolonged slunk scary? 734 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 2: We just talked about that. 735 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: I can keep him in the fourteenth next year, but 736 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: you could also trade him for any two of Turner, 737 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 1: Schwarber Durant. Okay, so that's the question there. He's been stinky. 738 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 1: If you could get Turner and Schwarber, but he's a keeper. 739 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 1: Are you doing it? And because he said he is 740 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: in first by eight games. I cannot do that. I 741 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: cannot trade away a fourteenth round James Wood. But clearly 742 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 1: adding Schwarber and Turner is just going to help your team. 743 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: So this is a flags fly forever issue. 744 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, or even like Schwarber and Durant, if you really 745 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 2: need saves, like any comedy there, I think you could 746 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 2: make it work. 747 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 1: But I assume that was Jaron Duran. Oh maybe maybe 748 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: because he was talking offensive players. I mean, Johan Duran 749 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,280 Speaker 1: would be a whole nother thing, but I assume Jaren. 750 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:13,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think would in the fourteenth is essentially we 751 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:15,839 Speaker 2: use the word free a lot, but that's a free 752 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 2: be right there. So I think you're probably keeping that. 753 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 2: The fact that you're already in first, you're in a 754 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 2: pretty good spot. If you were in like third or 755 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 2: fourth and you were really making the push, I could 756 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,399 Speaker 2: maybe see it. But I think you're standing pat with Wood. 757 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: Trade ten dollars sale for a twenty five dollars cease 758 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,439 Speaker 1: I'm in first and want to go for whin. He's 759 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,320 Speaker 1: looking to save money for next year. Plus he's a 760 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: Braves fan, So this is like, I mean, if you 761 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: want to win, I feel like you're already answering this. 762 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,359 Speaker 1: I kind of wish you could get a little bit better, 763 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 1: but ceases on the rebound. I'd probably do it because 764 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. If Hell's going Awa. 765 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 2: Sale, I'm fine with that. Yeah, I'm fine with that. 766 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 1: Winso Rico coming back to Arizona so we can hang. 767 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: I think we all know the answer to that. 768 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 2: November fifth. This year, November sixth, I'll be coming in 769 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 2: on the Wednesday, playing around of golf with Bubba and 770 00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 2: Ryan Bloomfield on the Thursday, and then we got the 771 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 2: festivities all weekend. We might be sneaking into the podcast 772 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 2: room once or twice to record, and yeah, be around 773 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:08,479 Speaker 2: at the Sheridan Mesa I think the hotel is called. 774 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:10,320 Speaker 2: So come by, say hello. We'll have a couple of 775 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 2: beers and talk some baseball. 776 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, if you want to meet all your favorite baseball 777 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 1: analyst people in fantasy, make sure you're out coming out 778 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,320 Speaker 1: to Arizona and I will say hi here. Well, we 779 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 1: shout out to Donnie, my boy, Donnie. Yes, Donny down 780 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,399 Speaker 1: the street. What's up Donnie? All right, let's get back 781 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: into a few of these things. Three up and three down. 782 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 1: That's where we're out right yeah. On the up, Spencer 783 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 1: Horwitz three for five, two homers, three runs, six RBI 784 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: against the Rockies. Bryce Terrang two for six with a 785 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: couple double dongs, two runs, four RBIs as they beat 786 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,800 Speaker 1: the Nationals and Edward Cabrera picked up the victory. Just 787 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: keeps doing it, throwing six innings, seven strikeouts, give up 788 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: one earned run against the Yankees. On the down, Frankie 789 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,320 Speaker 1: Montas allows seven hits, seven earned runs while walking to 790 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: and allowing seven hits, just getting blown up. We mentioned 791 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 1: Luise Heal, the four walk batters only three and one third. 792 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 1: I McMahon golden sombrero not a Sinco stinko, but zero 793 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 1: for four with the four k's against the Marlins. We 794 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:10,239 Speaker 1: were oh so close. On the injuries, this is a 795 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: bigger piece of news. Aaron Judge is going to take 796 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,280 Speaker 1: VP today and he's expected to come off the il 797 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: tomorrow and DH until his elbow is one hundred percent back. 798 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: So this is huge for that Yankees team that's kind 799 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 1: of falling apart. Probably could have I probably could have 800 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 1: put this in with the whole like Yankee stuff before, 801 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 1: but we were talking negative. This is a huge positive 802 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 1: for everybody, fantasy owners, and this Yankees team that's on 803 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 1: a just I think one of the most embarrassing three 804 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 1: games series, not just losing to the Marlins, but like 805 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 1: the you know, the the blow up, the guys you 806 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: traded for, the botch plays. It's a disaster. Aaron Judge 807 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: is here to save. And is Aaron Judge going to 808 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: reclaim his odds on favoriteness for MVP. 809 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,479 Speaker 2: I think he probably does, just based on the fact 810 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 2: that he was out for what did he mean, Like, 811 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,879 Speaker 2: I think it was a minimum ten days stint. Yeah, 812 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 2: the fact that it's an elbow. You really wonder what 813 00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 2: that could do to his swing if that's going to 814 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 2: mess things up in the long run. But you know, 815 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 2: if I'm betting today, we're going to remove the odds 816 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 2: from the equation. I think Aaron Judge is probably the MVP. 817 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 1: I think that's going to be as well. Like I'm 818 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 1: not sure I'm in. I think he's still minus money though, 819 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 1: isn't he. It's probably moved to minus money because he's close. 820 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: Like if you got I don't love betting like a 821 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 1: season long future like even money or minus money or 822 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,320 Speaker 1: anything like that. But it's just like you know you 823 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,760 Speaker 1: want to do it. He's probably somewhere between like minus 824 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: one ten, maybe he's plus one fifty at best or 825 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,880 Speaker 1: something like that. Probably gonna change a little bit here, 826 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 1: but Aaron Judge is going to be coming back tomorrow. 827 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 1: Jonathan Randa will not be back tomorrow. Placed on the 828 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:37,879 Speaker 1: IL Friday after his fracturing his wrist, but he says 829 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,840 Speaker 1: that he still expects to play this season. No thanks, 830 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 1: fractured risk, No thanks. Not that he's a big home 831 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,439 Speaker 1: run hitter, makes a lot of contact, but that looked bad. 832 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 1: It was right on trade deadline day, just ran right 833 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 1: in fractured risk. That stuff usually takes a month, so 834 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 1: I would imagine like he would come back in September. 835 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:59,360 Speaker 1: I have almost no interest in him. That's going to 836 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 1: be zapped hour and just nope. So I would bail 837 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 1: out on him if there's anything good out there. 838 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 2: You Yeah, I have him in my home league, which 839 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 2: has IL spots, so I put him on the IL. 840 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 2: But I think if you're dealing with limited IL spots 841 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 2: or no IL spots, you can probably cut him. As 842 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 2: sad as it has been great season, fantastic year, but 843 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 2: time to move on. 844 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 1: Peace out Austin Riley had to leave Sunday's game with 845 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,400 Speaker 1: abdominal pain and then was placed on the IL, so 846 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: that's not fun. Tommy Edmund continues to reinjure his brained ankle, 847 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: likely to go on the IL. That is a win 848 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: for Joe piece a Pia on the Kevin Gossman stuff. 849 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: Max Munse he expected to be activated today after missing 850 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 1: about a month, so that'll be the intertwining Tommy Edmund 851 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,240 Speaker 1: moves al. Hendro Kirk was reinstated from the concussion IL. 852 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 1: He was active on Sunday. Seth Halverson was placed on 853 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:47,280 Speaker 1: the fifteen day AL with an elbow sprain. Kyle Bradish 854 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 1: had a rough rehab outing in Triple A, having seven 855 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:54,840 Speaker 1: runs six hits while striking out only three. Chandler Simpson 856 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 1: is probable to return to the Raised lineup on Tuesday. 857 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 1: He had a finger sprain. Luckily that stuff really matters 858 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,720 Speaker 1: with him, just swing it flat and run. And Jackson 859 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 1: Turio had had a little PERP injection and is going 860 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 1: to potentially start his rehab now, but we're talking maybe 861 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 1: about a month still, so that there's no actual timetable, 862 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 1: but there was this inferred potential month that's in front 863 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: of him, So getting the injection, he's gonna work through it, 864 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 1: probably gonna downtake his production a little bit, right, Joe, 865 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,799 Speaker 1: I'm not looking. I don't feel super optimistic that we're 866 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: going to get like a good version of Trio the 867 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:31,359 Speaker 1: rest of way through. 868 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a tough situation because you can't really drop him. 869 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,319 Speaker 2: He's been really good. There's been some ups and downs, 870 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 2: what overall, he's been like a second or third rounder. 871 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 2: You kind of just have to hold on to him 872 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,280 Speaker 2: and when he's healthy, you put him back in the lineup. 873 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 2: Nobody's gonna buy him from you right now. You're not 874 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,439 Speaker 2: dropping him. It's a tough situation to be in, for sure. 875 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,359 Speaker 1: It definitely has. All Right, we got some stuff going 876 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: down today. We've got lots of games, and we've got 877 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 1: lots of bets for the best bets of the day, 878 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:55,400 Speaker 1: so let's go do it. It's like a look at 879 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: what we got, mister Well, actually, I guess I'll go 880 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: I forgot this is like the hosty thing where Joe 881 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 1: goes I'll rattle off mine so we can get a ricos. 882 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 1: Here are my best beds for the day. I'm going 883 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: to Eric lower as mentioned before, that strikeout number against 884 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,400 Speaker 1: the Rockies. I'm gonna I might almost take any starting 885 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: pitcher that's like four or five strikeouts over and it's 886 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 1: almost even money. Eric Lawer has had a pretty good 887 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,399 Speaker 1: run on strikeout percentage as well on the year, I believe. 888 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:21,839 Speaker 1: Let me pull it back up. I want to say 889 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 1: it was twenty three now twenty six percent with a 890 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 1: six percent walk rate. So I'm gonna take that all day, 891 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 1: especially against this Rockies team. So one oh five probably 892 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: my favorite of the day. Phillies run line minus one 893 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,239 Speaker 1: and a half. It's the full run line, full game. 894 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 1: It is even money. I am absolutely jumping on that 895 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 1: opportunity to take to take Phillies on the run line. 896 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 1: And then I am going up against my guy Brandon Fought, 897 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:50,240 Speaker 1: who just cannot go deep into games and he stow 898 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 1: ruggles against left eas. Hello Ryan O'Hearn New San Diego 899 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: Padre in Arizona. I'm taking total bases one point five 900 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 1: over for him to be down the line the tiny bit. 901 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 1: I don't have good feelings about Fought, especially against lefties, 902 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 1: and I think Ryan O'Hearn is gonna I honestly, we 903 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 1: might have a big fly in here, but I'm gonna 904 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: take the total bases over on plus money for rhino 905 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 1: herding against Brandon Fought, which got Joe Rico. 906 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,359 Speaker 2: I really like the rhyan O hearn Bett that one. 907 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 2: I think I might be holding hands with you on 908 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,439 Speaker 2: but I'm going Mike Soroka in his Cub's debut. I've 909 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 2: been a Mike Soroka fan for a while. I don't 910 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 2: know if it's the Canadian part of it, or the 911 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 2: underlying stats, whatever it is. I've liked Mike Soroka for 912 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 2: a long time and I think that if you just 913 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 2: look at what he's done on the surface this year, 914 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 2: it's pretty unimpressive, but the strikeout rate has been pretty 915 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:36,840 Speaker 2: solid for him. So over five and a half strikeouts 916 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 2: against the Cincinnati Reds, a team with a bottom ten 917 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 2: strikeout rate in the league at plus one thirty, getting 918 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 2: a nice number on that one. Adrian Houser making his 919 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,800 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay Ray's debut. This one kind of surprised me. 920 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 2: The over three and a half strikeouts was juiced, so 921 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:51,680 Speaker 2: I wanted to pair it with something, and the raised 922 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,280 Speaker 2: money line was plus money going up against the Angels 923 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 2: and Useae Kakuci. That one feels like a pretty good 924 00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:58,919 Speaker 2: bet to be to be making on Adrian Houser, who's 925 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,880 Speaker 2: been great this year. I don't expect that he'll maintain 926 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 2: this pace for the rest of his career. He's been 927 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 2: fairly lucky overall. But it's a good matchup there against 928 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 2: an inferior opponent in the Angels, and then Hunter Goodman. 929 00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 2: This one is courtesy of the Betting Pros Prop bet 930 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 2: cheat sheet plus one forty five over one and a 931 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:18,440 Speaker 2: half total bases righty versus lefty on Eric Lauer today. 932 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 2: This one feels pretty good for a guy who's been very, 933 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 2: very hot this year.

He's had 981 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 2: three homers over the last week. He's been phenomenal this year. 982 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:27,839 Speaker 2: He's not a first round fantas like, he's not paying 983 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 2: up for that first round fantasy price you paid for him. 984 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 2: But Gladdie's had a phenomenal season once again. 985 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 1: Uh Kutel Marte for me, JP Sears in Arizona.

We're gonna make 995 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 1: it a little bit more of an effort in every 996 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 1: show to make sure we are talking and answering some 997 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 1: questions and they'll probably all be just like a tad 998 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 1: bit longer.
