1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,439 Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome Awaken Jake with myself, Jake Store, Ellie 2 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:08,320 Speaker 1: Bbd as we talk about the wild world of sports, 3 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:13,000 Speaker 1: Big weekend, the baseball hot stove kicked in the gear 4 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: a little bit, the oven's on as we had the 5 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 1: first fun trade of the MLB season is essentially two 6 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: MLB guys get traded straight up for each other. Sorry, 7 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 1: Joey Weimer, we'll throw you in in the Reds Royals 8 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 1: India Singer deal. Also, you say Kokuchi, that's right, signs 9 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: with the Angels, which, if you're a baseball fan, part 10 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 1: of that hurts your soul for different reasons. There's a 11 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 1: lot of a lot of jokes around the office today 12 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 1: because it seems like a very angel signing the guy 13 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: that has one good full MLB season turning thirty three 14 00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: and basically he's known for being sleepy. Feels like there's 15 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: some Angels risk there. Have you said similar things when 16 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: they did Tyler Anderson and that's that's worked and now look, 17 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: so we'll talk about those a little bit. America's GM 18 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: Jim Bowden did a trade scenario mail bag that I 19 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 1: want to sift through because you know, I respect his 20 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: thoughts and I like seeing what the people have brought 21 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: together for him, along with a weekend of football. Indiana 22 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: Ohio State was a fun noon kick on Saturday, along 23 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: with the full NFL slate on Sunday. So I'll be 24 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: pretty high and tight because we did talking. Baseball was 25 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,639 Speaker 1: looking for juice and we got just enough with Singer 26 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: India trade and the Kakuochie signing. The Singer India trade 27 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: feels like there should be more trades like this in baseball. 28 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: The Cincinnati Reds had an extra infielder for a year 29 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: or two. The Royals have pitching depth. The Royals needed hitting, 30 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: Cincinnati needed pitching. That singer for India happens with Joey 31 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: Weimer going to the Royals as a quadruple a outfielder slash. 32 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: I don't know second chance prospect, that one swing coach 33 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: comes in and maybe you get a productive player, but 34 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: it starts with singer in India. I do. I like 35 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: it for both sides, and so did America's GM. Jim 36 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 1: Bowden said it's a win win. Don't see enough of that. Basically, 37 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: for the Royals, they get a bona fide MLB leadoff 38 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: hitter in Jonathan India. He got on base at a 39 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: three point fifty clip last year. He's showed himself at 40 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: the major league level for a few years now, three 41 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: fifty seven last year on bass. So if you can 42 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: put that in front of Bobby Witt, then he passed 43 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: Quentino and Alvi Perez. Hopefully Michael Massey can kind of 44 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 1: take another step next year. Michael Massey slugging was seven 45 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 1: points away from Salvador Press. So you might not think 46 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,959 Speaker 1: of old Michael Massey with that pretty lefty swing the 47 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: same way you think of Big Salvy. But he's a 48 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: really good young ballplayer. Interested to see where else the 49 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: Royals go with their lineup, because right now it rounds 50 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: off with Hunter Renfro, MJ. Melendez and mikeel Garcia and 51 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: Kyle Isbel in center field. Their rotation is currently listed 52 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: as Cole Reagan's seth Lugo, Michael Waka, Alec Marsh and 53 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: Kyle Wright. You're nineteen ninety seven, Cy young Winner, who 54 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: they traded for last year, was out for the season. 55 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: Interested to see how he bounced back. I think they 56 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: also have a they have a pitching prospect they like 57 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: on the way. What's that kid's name, Noah Cameron, I believe, 58 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: and we'll see how else they get involved in this 59 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: year's free agency. There there is starting pitching depth. I 60 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: want to be surprised if they bring in a veteran 61 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: under the right contract, because you're gonna want to bolster 62 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: that rotation just a little bit. And I think they 63 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: believe in however they're coaching pitching. I know Cole Reagan's 64 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: a young player, breakout Lougo and Waka older and kind 65 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: of broke out before they came to Kansas City. But 66 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: they've also pitched well there. So they get India. The 67 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 1: question is what are they going to do defensively? Right now? 68 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: They have Jonathan India slotted as their d H on fangrafts. 69 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: He can play second base. He hasn't graded out well there. 70 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: Michael Massey played second base for them last year. He's 71 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: supposed to have a little more versatility that that'll be 72 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: a question. But hitters play. It's something I wish the 73 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 1: Little league's coaches yelled at me just a little bit more. 74 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: I was working on versatility. If you hit, you'll play, 75 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: And Jonathan India will be in the lineup for them, 76 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: getting on base for wit Pascantino Perez and Massi, and 77 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: they did not have that last year. So offensively, where 78 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: we saw their lineup become pretty thin during the postseason, 79 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: it seems like they stretched it out just a little bit. 80 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: I do like the trade slightly more for the Cincinnati Reds, 81 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: and maybe I just can't quit the Cincinnati Reds. But 82 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,799 Speaker 1: on the downside of Jonathan India, his home road splits 83 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 1: last year pretty significant, and he's going from a hitters 84 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: park to a pitcher's park. Last year at home Jonathan 85 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: India two seventy three, three seventy five and eight forty 86 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: nine ops. Yes, Great American Ballpark. On the road last 87 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: year two twenty five, three forty two a six sixty ops. Now, 88 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: there's players every year that have Homan road splits in 89 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 1: Jonathan India over his career eight h nine ops at home, 90 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: seven twenty two ops away. So hey, maybe there's something 91 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: to a little home cooking. But Great American Ballpark is 92 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: one of the friendlier confines in Major League Baseball. And defensively, 93 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: I don't know what you're gonna get from Jonathan India, 94 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: Brady Singer. You're gonna at least get innings. Brady Singer 95 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: has thrown one hundred and fifty innings the past three years. 96 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 1: He's thrown the starts last three years twenty four, twenty nine, 97 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: thirty two in twenty seven the year before that, So 98 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: he's got three seasons with twenty six starts, one season 99 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: with twenty four. No other red starting pitcher has twenty 100 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: six plus starts on their resume, So you're getting innings. 101 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: The only question is what kind of re Is Foltz 102 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 1: are you getting from Brady Singer? Because last year a 103 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: three seven to one ERA, that's a one fourteen ERA plus. 104 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: We love that. The year before five five two, Brady 105 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: Singer got lit up. Trevor Proof was in the numbers. 106 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: His sinker was horrible in twenty twenty three, it was 107 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: fine in twenty twenty four, and Brady Singer broke out 108 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two where he had a three two 109 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:28,119 Speaker 1: three ERA one twenty seven ERA plus, So it was weird. 110 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: Brady Singer kind of had the I'm a young pitcher, 111 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: I'm figuring it out. He was drafted in the second 112 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: or excuse me, originally second round out of high school, 113 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: first round, eighteenth overall out of University of Florida, just 114 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: like Jonathan India. Well, hey, Brady Singer has some piss 115 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,679 Speaker 1: and vinegar to him, for lack of a better term. 116 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: There's few clips of him going around Major League and 117 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: his college days being pretty pretty damn pissy on the mound. 118 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: We even did a Weekly Dumb story that it looks 119 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: like he brought all of his stuff to a thrift 120 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: shop right before he was traded. I don't know there 121 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: there could be a lot of moving parts of that story. Whatever, 122 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: he goes to Cincinnati, and I don't think they're banking 123 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: on him being there one he's right now. Slot it 124 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: into their two behind Hunter Green, who had the breakout 125 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: season last year one hundred and fifty innings, pitch twenty 126 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: six starts, probably why I was using that number in 127 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: a two seven five ERA. Pair that up with Andrew 128 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 1: Abbott at a three seven two and twenty five starts. 129 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: Nick Martinez, who was so good they gave him the 130 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: qualifying offer. So with his three to one ERA one 131 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: hundred and forty two innings, you'll see him in the rotation. 132 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: Nick Lidolo. They lock up some innings for sure, and 133 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: if the Reds want to do something, they need Matt 134 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: McClain to bounce back at second base. They need Ellie 135 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: to continue to be a star and take some steps 136 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: at shortstop. They need Noelvie Marte to be the guy 137 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: at third base for them. And even Jamer, who was 138 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: kind of one of their free agent moves that I liked, 139 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: to bounce back. He did have a down year, but 140 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: he can bounce back from that. TJ. Friedel missed time 141 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: for them. I just like it for Cincinnati. The price 142 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: for Jonathan India in free agency would I think be 143 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: around like the twelve mill area like kind of Labor 144 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: Torres like. I don't think Jonathan India and Labor Torres 145 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: are that far off, especially in recent years. If you 146 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: take out some of young Glabor's big seasons where a 147 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: starting pitcher. Look what you say Kakuchi got and look 148 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: at him and Singers baseball cards the past couple years. 149 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: I think you'd rather have Singer and you got him 150 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: for that same price. So I like it as a 151 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 1: first step for Cincinnati. I'm interested to see are they 152 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 1: going to try to bolster their lineup at all? In 153 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: theory they could roll that team out there, you'd like 154 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: one more true thumper in the lineup, And are they 155 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: done pitching wise too, because they could roll with that 156 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: rotation where Kansas City still has some moves to make 157 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: so a fun one. A couple Florida Gators played on 158 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: the same college team first round picks, they get swapped. 159 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: They both have two years left with those organizations. And 160 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: Joey Weimer was in there too, which led me to 161 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: you say, Kakuchi breaks this morning three year, sixty three million, 162 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: twenty one a year quick math? 163 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 2: Yeah? 164 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: Nice? Is that the shirt from the holiday party? This 165 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: is the shirt from the high I got a snag 166 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: one of those. I left mine behind. Wow. If you're 167 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: watching on YouTube, make sure you're subscribing. Like BBD's shirt, 168 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna do the whole thing. You can 169 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: listen to talking baseball, you probably had a similar reaction 170 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: if you're a baseball fan. There's just something about the 171 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,959 Speaker 1: Angels and where Kokuchi's at that just feels like this 172 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:07,839 Speaker 1: isn't gonna work. Kakuchi went over to Houston and had 173 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: an amazing second half of the season. Ten starts, Uh 174 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 1: to seven to five? Ra I believe let's double check that. 175 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: Uh yep to seven? Sorry, you say he has stuff. 176 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: He's got an electric left handed arm. He's collected a 177 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: lot of money playing baseball, and he's gonna collect a 178 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: lot more. Uh. Hey, man, I know, war isn't everything 179 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: in baseball or life or pitchers. You say, Kakuchi career War. 180 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:49,599 Speaker 3: Twelve four point one, Yeah, the Badgers were bad, huh 181 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 3: not war racking years. 182 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: It just feels like there's a chance for it to 183 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,199 Speaker 1: go bad. And I don't know how much of that's Angels. 184 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,559 Speaker 1: I don't know how much of that it's Kakuchi. And 185 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,199 Speaker 1: you know, I hope it's wrong, man. I hope they 186 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: rolled out the wallet and he pitches well for them 187 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: and they can either flip him for future assets or 188 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: it begins a turnaround in LA. But I we just 189 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: haven't seen it with the Angels since since when? Since when? 190 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I know you mentioned Tyler Anderson who came 191 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: over from the Dodgers. 192 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,439 Speaker 3: After the Dodgers fixed him up and they gave him 193 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 3: a three year deal again early in the offseason. I 194 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,319 Speaker 3: think he he jumped on it before qualifying off for 195 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 3: deadline stuff. 196 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, his his first year with the Angels 197 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 1: was pretty bad. He bounced back last year and he 198 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: had a nice three war season for them. Again one 199 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: war away from Yusaykouchi's career. 200 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 3: Like even it's just like even whatever you think the 201 00:12:55,559 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 3: best realistic possibility of what you sick Cucci can be 202 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 3: over this three year window or just this year is 203 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 3: like what does that change for the Angels? Like bottom line, 204 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 3: Like yeah, how much does that changed? Therefore it's baseball. 205 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: The only thing I will say this Kakuchi was very 206 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: much if he ended up on a good team, we 207 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: would point to his velo, he'd point to his breaking 208 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: His breaking run value from last year was ninety fourth percentile. 209 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: I think they tapped into that change up more in Houston. 210 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 1: The slider has some good numbers on it. Let me 211 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 1: double check that. Yeah, the slider has really good numbers 212 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: on it. So if he had signed with the Braves, 213 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: we would probably be hitting the table and be like Couci, say, young, 214 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 1: look what they did with Rinaldo Lopez. Look what they've 215 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: done with Chris Sale. Yeah, but they did it, and 216 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: the Angels did and I don't know if that was 217 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 1: first bidding. I don't know if they didn't want them. 218 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: I don't know what that was, but it's how it happened, 219 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: and it's just the fact of it that the Angels 220 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: until they prove they're not the Angels, they're so Angels. 221 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: I wanted to believe in Ron Washington last year, right, 222 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 1: I want to believe in their young players. Netto had 223 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: a breakout year last year. I want to believe the 224 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: players they brought in. Darnault's going to be a solidifying 225 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: force with Logan o'happy to give them a one of 226 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: the strongest catcher positions in MLB. Shannuel at first base, 227 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: he's the guy. He's still he's twenty two years old. 228 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: Like I, Mike Trout bounces back and has the healthy 229 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: year what we've been waiting for. It's just how how 230 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: long can you keep saying that? So it's it's a 231 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: little unfair. I'll be honest, and any of the analysis 232 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: you're gonna hear from me is a little unfair on 233 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: it because if Reed Debt Merce, who's now the five 234 00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 1: starter for the Angels listed on fangraps, if he got 235 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: traded to one of the good Orgs tomorrow, we'd be like, yes, 236 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: that guy has the stuff and the no hitter. Trev 237 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: keeps comparing him to Snell. If he's in LA. We're 238 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: just I'm not gonna believe in that breakout, and I 239 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 1: don't know if that's fair enough. I hope we're talking 240 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: at mid season that the Angels are ten games above 241 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: five hundred and Ron Washington has them playing well and 242 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: these aren't your your parents' Angels. I just feel like 243 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: when we see this final roster on paper and maybe 244 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: they're still getting started, maybe they're gonna add a significant 245 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 1: lefty bat to put in the middle of that lineup, 246 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: because that's currently what the lineups. I don't want to 247 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: say the only thing the lineup's missing a good lefty 248 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: in this middle of the lineup. And this, okay, this 249 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: is a good rude thing for me. If they signed well, 250 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 1: I was gonna say Jock, but they have Solair at 251 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: dh okay, Joe Adele's in right field. If they if 252 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 1: they traded for Cody Bellinger, that's one of the rumors 253 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: in America's GM Jim Bowden's article, if they added Cody 254 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: Bellinger to this lineup. This lineup is the Chicago Cubs 255 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: like it's just a bunch of solid players. It's it's nice. 256 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 1: Is it good enough lineup to carry you to something? 257 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 1: I don't think so? And I think they're pitching is 258 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: worse than the Cubs, and now Cubs fans are really mad. 259 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: So I've been on a Cubs kick. I'm sorry Cubs fans. 260 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: Cubs know they're they're trying. They're not happy with their 261 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: team and their results. I'd like to think. 262 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 3: So, Yeah, the reason Bellinger's Bellinger Horn or whoever is 263 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 3: available is because they want to open up room to 264 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 3: add some pitching, make room for for prospects and all 265 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 3: of that. 266 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 2: So they know. 267 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: I think the good news or quote unquote good news, Uh, 268 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: if you're mapping out your team's postseason. Uh, this Kokuochi 269 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: contract was right around what people thought he would get. 270 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 1: I guess fangrafts was a little They were three for 271 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 1: fifty four, three for sixty three. I think the Athletic 272 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:09,919 Speaker 1: had three for sixty three right on the nose. Forget 273 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,360 Speaker 1: who that was, give them credit. 274 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 3: That. 275 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know. If you use these websites to 276 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 1: try to model out who your team should be hunting 277 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: in free agency, there is some merit around it. I 278 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 1: think some of the big boy ones get a little 279 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 1: tricky because that's when the owner kicks in and we 280 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: gotta get Soto done it better start with a six. 281 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,479 Speaker 3: It's like a couple of them, because I think at 282 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 3: least fangrafts. The way they do it is like the 283 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 3: medians of enough people are like one or two year DP. 284 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 3: Yeahs on that sides down, you get the outliers that 285 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 3: help it shake out. But more importantly, maybe this gets 286 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 3: a movement underway for the other teams and the other 287 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 3: Angels thing that was kind of my head tilt shrug, 288 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 3: like I'm not gonna be mad at them for trying something. 289 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: You need to try something. It just feels like they're 290 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 1: trying the same thing and the other thing we don't 291 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: know that I want, or if it could be very 292 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: true almost Commanders esque when there was that report that 293 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,640 Speaker 1: players wanted to be traded to the Commanders because they 294 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: like Jaden Daniels. Maybe if the Halos get the stink 295 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: off them, if I was one of the top free 296 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: agent pitchers, I wouldn't want to go there. And like 297 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 1: when when you're talking California taxes and you're talking about 298 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: Max Freed and he's gonna get very similar offers from 299 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 1: teams of a better ilk, like those guys can say, Angels, 300 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: I'm I'm sorry I'm not about it like I don't. 301 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: I don't want to risk the next seven years of 302 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:38,959 Speaker 1: my career potentially just being in no man's land. So 303 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: maybe Kokuchi was the guy that was like, hey, if 304 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: you hit this number, I'll sign, and he did. So 305 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,679 Speaker 1: we dove a little more under that. On talking baseball, 306 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: let me get into America's GM.

If the Athletic got really mad, stop 336 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,679 Speaker 1: revealing Jim Bowden's articles. 337 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 3: This is the one people come for. 338 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: They might I love him, as I told you, he 339 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: called the Singer India trade a win win. Nice. Let 340 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: me croche this to start as eyes turned to Garrett Crochet, 341 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 1: probably one of the prize pieces of this off season. 342 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 1: Because I've got people asking about a Mets package, I've 343 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 1: got a Red Sox package in here. I've got the Orioles. 344 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 1: Let me see if I have another team in the 345 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: Crochet sweep steaks. 346 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 3: I don't I think there was a Phillies in that crop. 347 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: Jimmy O'Brien, John Boy drinking fake coffee in my face. 348 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 1: That's crazy, that's crazy. The Thanksgiving effect in this office 349 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: is very real right now. Okay, so let's start at 350 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: the top with it. Garrett Crochet two years of Crochet, 351 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: which Brady Singer was just traded for Jonathan India. Garrett 352 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 1: Crochet kind of peaking right now and had the best 353 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: strikeout rate in baseball. So he's his value significantly higher 354 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: and they'll be looking for prospects, so the Mets. Timothy 355 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 1: W a Mets fan, wrote in, said, Batty Luis and Helicunya, 356 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 1: Blade Tidwell and Marco Vargas love when we're getting in 357 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 1: the real prospect weeds. I don't Blade Tidwell. I hope 358 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: he's a stud not familiar with his game. It was 359 00:21:55,720 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 1: kind of funny America's GM Jim Bowden immediately the price 360 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:04,199 Speaker 1: to Acunya, Jet Williams and Drew Gilbert or prospects you 361 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: may be more familiar with, uh I think the point 362 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: is you're gonna need two to three prospect prospects to 363 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: get this done. Oh I miss this. Phillies one White 364 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: Sox get Justin Crawford, Mick Abel, Eduardo, tait Ty Pete, 365 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:30,880 Speaker 1: and Johnny Farmelo. No way, far, no way. Johnny Farmelo 366 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:35,640 Speaker 1: got involved, The Phillies get Crochet, and the Mariners get 367 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 1: Alec Boem So a three way trade there. I've been 368 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: hearing a lot of Alec Bohm Mariners. Baby d you 369 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: had a vis viseral reaction. Visceral, uh, because it somehow 370 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: makes sense. I hope it doesn't. I did. Josh Rojas 371 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: was dfa today or non tender to excuse me. And 372 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: there was a while he took over there lead off spot, 373 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: and we were looking at Josh Rojas's stats and we're like, yeah, 374 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 1: he's kind of been league average his whole career. He 375 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: was pretty bad the rest of the way. And then 376 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: I remember Victor Roebless had like a month and a 377 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 1: half of good games and they extended him. So I 378 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: don't know, I'm not saying anything there. I just live 379 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: in fear of hitters going to the Mariners. What a 380 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: sick person shout out to Andrew j who wrote this 381 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: in submitting a three way trade, Jim Bowden says he 382 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 1: gets the image that the Phillies are more locked in 383 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 1: on inquiring an outfielder of this offseason, which makes sense 384 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: because they just non tendered Austin Hayes, who they traded 385 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 1: for it the deadline. So that's a little nice tidbit 386 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 1: there from Jimmy B. And then a Red Sox fan 387 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 1: was also chiming in, how can they get Crochet not 388 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 1: including Boston's big four prospects. I didn't know we were 389 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 1: labeling them that way or they even had that. A 390 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 1: package of casus O, Brall and Connor Wong probably gets 391 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:16,959 Speaker 1: close to Land and Crochet. I'm starting to see the 392 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 1: Red Sox getting involved in this offseason in a big way. 393 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: They changed the front office. They've been five hundred and 394 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: not competitive the past couple years, and it just feels 395 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 1: like they have a path this year to not necessarily 396 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 1: win the offseason, because that's not normally what gets it done. 397 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:45,159 Speaker 1: I think Tristan Cossas. How many teams could have a 398 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: player like Tristan Cassas even available to trade. You've got 399 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 1: a twenty four year old first baseman who's hit at 400 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: a pretty solid level his whole career two years so, 401 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: but it also it feels genuine. He's a massive human. 402 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: He's got power to all fields. Like it's not like. 403 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 3: It. 404 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: I'll actually tell you go look at his Fangraft spray 405 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,719 Speaker 1: chart because it plays anywhere. It's not just he's not 406 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 1: playing monster Ball or anything like that. So if you 407 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 1: were Seattle and Luis Castillo was on the trade block, 408 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: if you're trading Garrett Crochet and you need a current 409 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: MLB player to start getting it done, if the Red 410 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 1: Sox are willing to move Tristan Cassas, there's rumors about 411 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: Devers moving to first base, the Red Sox really have 412 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: a path this offseason between that kind of significant trade 413 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,360 Speaker 1: while grabbing one or two free agents that they could change. 414 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: Let's just say they're the Crochet winners. They trade Cassas 415 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 1: in one of their prospects. I won't even name him 416 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,880 Speaker 1: because it'll make Red Sox fans mad. But they can 417 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: get that trade done. So they get Crochet. You got Crochet, 418 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 1: how Bayo Crawford, Maybe we had one more starting pitcher 419 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 1: just to be safe. I don't know how significant it 420 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: has to be also a guy Lucas Giolito should be 421 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: coming back next year. You guys know, I try not 422 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: to hype up Chris Rose too much, but it was 423 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: a great quote and I would go check it out. 424 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 1: Chris Rose on the Chris Rose Rotation talking to Giolito 425 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: and chi Alito said he was pretty miserable last year 426 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 1: because he was he's on a new team, he's a 427 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: free agent, he gets hurt, so he's just at the 428 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 1: facility getting paid pretty well, and kind of the dudes 429 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: are looking at him, and he's looking at the dudes. 430 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 3: Like, I. 431 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: God, we could use each other's help. And I don't know, 432 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: it's one of those things to actually hear that from 433 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 1: an athlete's perspective was very interesting to hear. So I 434 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 1: would go check that out. And I don't know. I'm 435 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:11,360 Speaker 1: I think the Red Sox. There's a group of teams 436 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: this offseason that are kind of like the the will 437 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 1: they won't they get involved crew And we did a 438 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 1: little bit of this with with Jolly Olive, But like 439 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: Boston will they won't they We've done this dance for 440 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: a couple of years now. I'm leaning they will. Detroit. 441 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 1: Everyone thinks they're gonna get involved. I'd actually lean no, 442 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 1: Like I think they're gonna get a couple pitchers, but 443 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: we'll see. Also in the will they won't they, Toronto 444 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: and Texas freak me out a little bit. Big budgets, 445 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: They kind of need to do something like part of 446 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 1: this Jim Bowden article says the Rangers expect de Gram 447 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 1: to come back full de Gram next year, which, if 448 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,439 Speaker 1: you remember full de Gram, that's a guy that's so 449 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: good that you have to like put a plan and 450 00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: put a player around it. And they're, you know, a 451 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 1: year removed from being the World Series champs that they're not. 452 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: They're not just gonna pay. They're not just gonna pay 453 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 1: Simeon Seeger and de Gram to go lose eighty five 454 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 1: games next year. So those are the the will they 455 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: won't they teams for me. The Washington Nationals we've talked 456 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: about a little bit. With all their talented youth, are 457 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 1: they gonna get the bank roll back up? Giants and 458 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 1: Padres live there. I'm not even gonna Pittsburgh's not even 459 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 1: in the Will they won't they, although they should be 460 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 1: because they told us they would be. The Cubs are 461 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,719 Speaker 1: constantly will they won't they too. So I don't know 462 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: if those pile of teams that depending their ownership group 463 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: and how their GM wants to take it. If those 464 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 1: teams are involved, buying becomes a lot tougher in free 465 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: agency and trade if they take the breaks off. Just 466 00:28:56,320 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: some simple economics for you guys. So back in Jim 467 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 1: Bowden's article, h the Orioles, they're involved in crochet. You 468 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 1: know they're talking about some of their top prospects, Kobe Mayo, 469 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: Samuel Bissalo. Yeah, I mean whatever the White Sox want, Like, 470 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: I don't need to dive into this. The more and 471 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: better prospects and players you're giving gives you a better 472 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: chance to get crochet. So we'll see what team goes there. 473 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 1: I did think it was an interesting one that an 474 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: Orioles fan wrote in and said, hey, if we resigned Santander, 475 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: which isn't insane, Like, I think Santander's value to Baltimore 476 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 1: is similar to where it could be with other teams, 477 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: especially if they bring in that wall a couple feet. 478 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: If they locked up Santander, he's a part of this 479 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: switch hitting middle of the lineup. Blah blah blah. That 480 00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 1: would allow them to trade a Curse stat or Co 481 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: Mayo for Crochet, which if you're the Orioles, you know, 482 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: maybe spending that twenty two twenty five million for Santander 483 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: in trading for Crochet is an easier way than fronting 484 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: the Baker bankroll of signing Corbyn Burns for thirty three 485 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: a year and then still having to bring in an outfielder. 486 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,719 Speaker 1: I don't know. I thought that was interesting in something 487 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: to watch for. If the Orioles were to bring back 488 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: Santander and we're all like, okay, golf clap, the Orioles 489 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: are keeping one of their guys. Sure that would kind 490 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: of signify to me that one of their young outfielders 491 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: would be trade bait. So I don't That was from 492 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: Greg d Uh, and that made me rethink things a 493 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: little bit because for the Orioles, who there's Oriols fans 494 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: listening to this that might be mad. I didn't include 495 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 1: them in the do or do not area. I still 496 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: don't know about the Orioles. They're going to be in 497 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 1: this offseason, so like to me, they're a DO but 498 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 1: we just don't know if they're like the cost effective 499 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: Orioles or if this new ownership here is actually to dance. 500 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: So that one turned my head a little bit. Another 501 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: one that here's what I love. People, you're listening awaken Jake. 502 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 1: You probably like baseball, you probably love sports. We're glad 503 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: to have you subscribe all the good stuff. Here's what 504 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:35,959 Speaker 1: we're looking for. Two Jordan Montgomery trade offers Red Sox 505 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: Masataka Yoshida. The Kasas trade doesn't develop. They've got all 506 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: these lefties. Yoshida's kind of tough in the field. He's 507 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: probably a DH, but he can hit. The Snake's owner 508 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 1: came out and said, we're trading Jordan Montgomery. America's gim 509 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: Jim Bowden. He said he liked this for the Red Sox. 510 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: Get Jordan Montgomery, get your inside, get your pitching there. 511 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: You flip Yoshida, which again he ended up being okay 512 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: for you last year. But he's kind of gonna clog 513 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: up the d H spot and you don't have to 514 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: flip causes for the d Backs Jack Peterson who opted out, 515 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: you can replace him with the Yoshida. A lot of 516 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: people like to hit in Arizona, whether that's the stadium 517 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 1: or the lineup that that could be a win win 518 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: for them. The other one, and this one was a 519 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: full little head tilt for me. Jordan Montgomery for Cody Bellinger. 520 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 1: Cubbies are trying to get off Belly's contracts, still a 521 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: productive player, Cody Bellinger, also from the Arizona area. People 522 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: forget high school with cul Tucker, I think, which again, 523 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: I don't know how your guys high school baseball team was, 524 00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna assume they were better. The Montgomery for 525 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 1: Belly swap would be interesting. I think after the year 526 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 1: Monty had, they can't do that. Monty's year was pretty tough. 527 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: Belly ended up having like a little over two war 528 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 1: Monty was negative one point four. I know you can 529 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: point to the no offseason or preseason and spring training, 530 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: and we've seen a couple pitchers do this. They're like, 531 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 1: Jordan Montgomery isn't the player he played to last year, 532 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 1: and that's where teams will eventually come to the table, 533 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: whether it's missing out on free agents or again, the 534 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: price tag shouldn't be crazy that I liked both of 535 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 1: those concepts. Yoshida, who the Red Sox are kind of 536 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 1: looking for an out from Belly, who the Cubs are 537 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,719 Speaker 1: looking for an out from You could probably get something 538 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: else from the Diamondbacks. If you're the Cubs, to get 539 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: Jordan Montgomery in there, and that kind of feels that 540 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: feels like the state of the Cup. I want them 541 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: to go and get Corbyn Burns. How about we flip 542 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 1: belly for Jordan Montgomery. 543 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 2: E E. 544 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. I've been I've been trying to find 545 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 1: the Jordan Montgomery team. I kind of thought it was 546 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: going to be the Angels because they could pay him 547 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 1: Kokuchi money while giving up almost nothing. 548 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 3: Just being willing to take the deal. 549 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 1: Maybe they still are. 550 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 3: I certainly could. 551 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm I will never rule them out. There was 552 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: some Vladimir Guerrero Junior questions in here about and basically 553 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:43,439 Speaker 1: said like, hey, that's that's not happening you at this point, 554 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: Toronto's trying to extend him and you just ride it 555 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: out to the deadline because Vladdie stock is all the 556 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 1: way back up man with his age and his production level. 557 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:04,279 Speaker 1: Good on Vladdie and the Blue Jays depending their off 558 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: season again to the door. Do not teams. I don't know. 559 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: They have to do something, and I hope it's not 560 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 1: just a bunch of little small moves, which I think 561 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 1: it is gonna be let's see. God, there were so 562 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 1: many in here. I was blown away. Then you know, 563 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: you guys know, I get a little hot to trout 564 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 1: with America's gm uh. Here's the Yankees one. This is awesome. 565 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: The Cardinals, these teams have traded before, Ryan Helsley, Victor Scott, 566 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 1: Deuce and Steven Mattz for Jason Domingus. Okay, so the 567 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 1: Yankees would get the closer they've been looking for. On 568 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: the back end, they get an opportunity with Steven Mattz 569 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: to tap into a talented, injury prone to local arm. 570 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,760 Speaker 1: They did have them eating the contract, and then Victor 571 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,959 Speaker 1: Scott comes over. I guess to just be a young 572 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: defensive outfielder for the Yankees if they want to use that. 573 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: Jim Bowden says it's interesting. He says he doesn't see 574 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: the Yankees doing it because de Mingas is the Yankees' 575 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: best prospect, especially if they don't re sign Soto. That 576 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 1: they he either becomes a cornerstone piece for them or 577 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:28,840 Speaker 1: a cornerstone trade piece for them. That just trading for 578 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: and I don't want to say jes but trading for 579 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:35,800 Speaker 1: a closer, a pitcher with risk a one year closer 580 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: at that and whatever Victor Scott dos can turn into, 581 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 1: I don't see it happening that. 582 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it just doesn't seem like the trade the Yankees 583 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 3: cash that chip in on, even if they decided we're 584 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 3: trading him this offseason. 585 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 1: This one I think was interesting. Dodgers Devin Williams from 586 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:59,800 Speaker 1: the Brewers for Gavin Lux and land and Knack. So 587 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: get Gavin Lux play some second base, hit a little 588 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 1: bit for you. Seemed like his light bulb really came 589 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: on the second half of this year. Dodgers get a 590 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 1: lockdown closer for a year, and I was surprised to 591 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 1: see America's Jim Jim Bowdens thought the Dodgers kind of 592 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,719 Speaker 1: would be on the better end of this deal and 593 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 1: that the Brewers would not like it. Which I was 594 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 1: a little surprised to see Gavin Lux and MLB infielder. 595 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 1: I think he's from that area, not that that should matter, 596 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,480 Speaker 1: but kind of and Landon Nak, who's I don't know, 597 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 1: a young pitcher that the Brewers could tap into with 598 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: years of control. For Devin Williams, I'm a little surprised. 599 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 1: I'd like to think that package is somewhere in the 600 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:51,800 Speaker 1: ballpark for what Milwaukee would want, but reliever price tags. 601 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 1: I just don't even know anymore. The whole market has 602 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:58,320 Speaker 1: kind of been thrown off to me. With free agent 603 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 1: relievers out there to be tapped into the Hellsley and 604 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:07,760 Speaker 1: Devin Williams this offseason, I have no clue. No clue, 605 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: which led to one more Devin Williams four Alec Bohm, 606 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 1: I just don't see. I don't see the Brewers being 607 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 1: an Alec Bohm destination, although they brought in Rehye Hoskins, 608 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,840 Speaker 1: so they clearly like something about those teams scouting Boom 609 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: to play third base. The Joey Ortiz right now is 610 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,799 Speaker 1: supposed to slide to shorts up. The Brewers requirement is 611 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 1: normally you gotta play defense if you can hit, that's 612 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,800 Speaker 1: a bonus that Alec Bohm kind of doesn't fit that profile. 613 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 1: So I don't see them as a Boom team. I 614 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 1: can't even look at the Josh Naylor trades man. They 615 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 1: just make me so sad. He's such a fit in Cleveland. 616 00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,879 Speaker 1: Give me the weird Naylor extension. He doesn't rack up war. 617 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 1: He clearly kind of likes it there. Give me the 618 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 1: the four years, fifty million extension for Josh Naylor, like, 619 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 1: I will not look at those trade offers. Josh Jones 620 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: to the Red Sox. No Jered Jones. Excuse me. Josh 621 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 1: Jones is one of my friend's buddies from college. Shout 622 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 1: out to him, Hi, Josh, nice cat, nice cat. Twins 623 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 1: trade Correa, I don't see it, although there were some 624 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:44,279 Speaker 1: Buxton rumors earlier this offseason that I do wonder if 625 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 1: the Twins could get off some money. This is the 626 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 1: part that our guy Trevor has been unfortunately alluding to, 627 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: with the Twins and their TV contract and everything going 628 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:58,760 Speaker 1: on with that team. I think there's teams that don't 629 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 1: believe an injury prone I mean some players are just 630 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: undeniable at this point. I mean Buxton, my god, that 631 00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:12,880 Speaker 1: would be interesting. How many years does Buckston have left? 632 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 1: Because he signed that extension a couple years ago. 633 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 3: That was a funky one. 634 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: Okay, so he has one, two, three, four years left 635 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 1: thirty one through thirty four. He's been banged up, but 636 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: the numbers fifteen MILLI year with crazy performance bonuses in there, 637 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 1: so there's obviously risk to it. This guy is a 638 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,680 Speaker 1: sick puppy man in one hundred and two games. Last year, 639 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 1: he had a three and a half war whoa, it's 640 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: only his second season playing one hundred games. He's so 641 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,919 Speaker 1: talented that I wonder if the Twins could get off 642 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 1: that money, because you basically need an injury insurance plan 643 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:10,399 Speaker 1: with him. But some of the big teams could afford that. God, 644 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 1: if Byron Buckson ended up on the Yankees, the Phillies, 645 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 1: the Dodgers, Braves, like we would believe in that. I 646 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 1: wonder who even gets to answer those kind of questions. 647 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 3: It was Steve. 648 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 1: He was just flowing around. If you just saw me 649 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:36,879 Speaker 1: point at someone on YouTube. Byron Buckston getting traded would 650 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 1: be really interesting for a Twins team that's trying to 651 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: clear up their books. They kind of need more out 652 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,760 Speaker 1: of him, and maybe a change of scenery would be good. 653 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,839 Speaker 3: Someone else's medical staff try something on that. 654 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 1: And I mean, whatever the Braves did with Chris sale. 655 00:41:56,640 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 3: In, Yeah, fifteen million year a number worth the you know, 656 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,400 Speaker 3: juice is worth the squeeze on the Twins end of 657 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 3: trying to make a trade work. And if you're the 658 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:11,160 Speaker 3: acquiring team, assuming you're a team that typically operates at 659 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:14,959 Speaker 3: a bigger budget, that's worthwhile. 660 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 1: He's such a scary player to trade for. 661 00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 3: Man, depends, it all depends what else is happening in 662 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 3: what your current situation is. 663 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, you need is he a bonus piece basically, and 664 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 1: you need depth. 665 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 3: If you if you if the Phillies did it tomorrow, 666 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 3: we'd be like, you'd love. 667 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 1: It, You'd love it. Since twenty twenty eight forty eight ops. 668 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: So I know that doesn't necessarily jump off the page, 669 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 1: but it does. It should one two ops plus. Like 670 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 1: Buck Daddy for the past few years now, when he's 671 00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 1: out there, he hits that that would be a really 672 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:05,920 Speaker 1: interesting saying trade candidate for one of the teams with 673 00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:09,319 Speaker 1: Buffer to do it. This last one, it just made 674 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:13,560 Speaker 1: me laugh. Mikey stremskier La Montway Junior have any real 675 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:17,799 Speaker 1: trade value. I don't think either player has much trade value, 676 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 1: said Jim Bowden. So giants are in their own version 677 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: of hell. He did answer a Camillo d'vall question after that, 678 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:28,240 Speaker 1: which he answered the exact same way I've been answering. 679 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 1: Why would they trade him at his lowest value? Worst case? 680 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 1: You let him just throw hard even in triple A 681 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 1: next year, and his value doesn't change. So thanks to 682 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:43,959 Speaker 1: America's GM and the writers on the Athletic, the people 683 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 1: who wrote into the Athletic for chiming in on that, 684 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 1: and what do we find out? Buckston going somewhere would 685 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 1: be cool. I'm starrying to find some more realistic Monty swaps, 686 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 1: which those weren't making sense in my head, and man 687 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 1: the race. Hopefully that's about to get really fun with 688 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:08,360 Speaker 1: the trade market having already gone.

Like I mentioned a little college football for 708 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 1: you because I'm I'm super interested to see how this 709 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 1: new format plays out. College football is in a weird 710 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 1: spot because everyone's losing, and the cop out answer is 711 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 1: like all these teams are flawed, or the new conferences, 712 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:24,240 Speaker 1: or however, whichever way you want to go with it. 713 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 1: It was a fun one at Ohio State Indiana undefeated 714 00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:35,360 Speaker 1: who people were asking questions. They got the new Google 715 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:40,400 Speaker 1: Meet coach that we fall in love with, Signetti Indiana 716 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:44,920 Speaker 1: that's never been a football school in my lifetime. Ten 717 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 1: and zero heading to the to Ohio State in Ohio 718 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:55,960 Speaker 1: State ends up getting it done, but Indiana opening drive 719 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:58,960 Speaker 1: they stop Ohio State on a three and ow they 720 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:02,160 Speaker 1: get the ball. They march down the field seven to nothing, 721 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 1: and there was kind of a look around moment of wait, 722 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,560 Speaker 1: are they gonna do this? It was all Ohio State 723 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: the rest of the way. Ohio State's ten and one. 724 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 1: Their only loss is to undefeated Oregon. They're gonna be 725 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 1: going dancing dominant win from them in the college football landscape. 726 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 1: I don't know what you do. Number seven. Alabama lost 727 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 1: their third game to Oklahoma Ole miss Well. I did 728 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 1: tell you guys. I put in a weird DraftKings ticket 729 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: on them to win the College Football Championship, hoping to 730 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:41,800 Speaker 1: cash out at some point because I don't actually believe 731 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 1: they lose at home to the six and five Florida Gators. God, 732 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,359 Speaker 1: Boise State is probably gonna end up on this thing 733 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:55,440 Speaker 1: and they survived. Why two and nine wyomings seventeen to thirteen. 734 00:46:56,520 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 1: Super interested to see how the bracket sorts out. EYU 735 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:03,319 Speaker 1: in Texas, A and M and Colorado both lose. Those 736 00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 1: are teams fourteen, fifteen and sixteen. That is Arizona State 737 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,839 Speaker 1: gonna find a way into this Clemson, South Carolina. I'm 738 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 1: excited to see any new format and see how it 739 00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:18,400 Speaker 1: plays out. We said that with baseball where do we 740 00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 1: land with Baseball's format now? Because the good teams did 741 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 1: good this year, right. 742 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:25,879 Speaker 3: This year we got some good corrections to the first 743 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 3: couple of years of the They just need to out 744 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 3: the start of it, tighten up the start figure figures. 745 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 1: Wild card teams aren't getting hurt at all. 746 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:38,720 Speaker 3: They're definitely not getting hurt. And it's just been weird 747 00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 3: with scheduling stuff and actual selling of the product. But 748 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 3: still need to see more. 749 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:49,160 Speaker 1: Still need to see more and decide anything for real. 750 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 1: That's where I want to get to a college football 751 00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:54,040 Speaker 1: And I did hear a cool I think it was 752 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:57,759 Speaker 1: Brady Quinn with my guy Ryan Roussillo. He said, for 753 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:01,360 Speaker 1: like the other bowl games that people are just out on, like, 754 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 1: you know, no offense to San Jose State, and I 755 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:10,560 Speaker 1: don't know who they're gonna play, wake Forest. Wake Forest 756 00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 1: isn't going dancing this year. But one of those bowl 757 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,040 Speaker 1: games you look at on December fifth and you're like, 758 00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:21,759 Speaker 1: oh my god, like the Conoco Flenoco Bowl. They were 759 00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 1: saying they should get rid of those bowl games and 760 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 1: have them during the season with like good teams, so 761 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 1: like have the Knoko Flenoco Bowl in September and have 762 00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:39,080 Speaker 1: have Ole Miss play Oklahoma and see what happens there. 763 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:42,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. I was really intrigued by that idea. 764 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 1: It made sense to me, maybe you can still do 765 00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 1: the little bowl games at the end of the year 766 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 1: for the teams that don't really have a shot to 767 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 1: go dancing. I don't know. It's always creative to put 768 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 1: your creative hat on, which brings us to the NFL weekend. 769 00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 1: This weekend, I got to tune into it. I was excited. 770 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 1: It started off Thursday snow game famous James Jamis Winston 771 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:18,920 Speaker 1: and the Cleveland Browns take down another AFC Norris opponent. 772 00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:24,960 Speaker 1: They've beaten the Ravens and they beat the Steelers in 773 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:32,280 Speaker 1: the snow. By the way, too much snow? Is that possible? 774 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:35,239 Speaker 1: There was a couple shots that it was like, are 775 00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:38,319 Speaker 1: the cameras too good? They got the fake lines going. 776 00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 1: I was interested. If I was being old man, I 777 00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 1: was a little freaked out by it at first, and 778 00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, Jake, check your old madness a 779 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 1: little bit, because what's the real problem to seeing the 780 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 1: lines on the field. And then I got I tweeted 781 00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 1: it out. I got some replies from people that were like, yes, 782 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 1: you're absolutely right, because a we were getting the green 783 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:07,360 Speaker 1: screen effect that like players were going through it and 784 00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:10,360 Speaker 1: they were looking fuzzy, and then the other thing. And 785 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:13,800 Speaker 1: maybe it's nostalgia, maybe it's dumb, but that's kind of 786 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:16,920 Speaker 1: one of the cool parts of the snow game, Like 787 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 1: let the broadcasters talk you through it. Al Michael's saying 788 00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:22,640 Speaker 1: something like, I think they're on the twenty seven yard line. 789 00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:25,440 Speaker 1: We kind of had that taken away from us. So 790 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:29,319 Speaker 1: maybe it's dumb old man yelling at cloud For now, 791 00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,480 Speaker 1: the Steelers that the conversation all week is are they 792 00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 1: a real Super Bowl contender? They lose in Cleveland. If 793 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:39,839 Speaker 1: you are someone in the sports gambling game, you knew 794 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 1: this felt like a trap game of sorts. And how 795 00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 1: about Nick Chubb two rushing touchdowns in this one. Jerry 796 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:50,640 Speaker 1: Chudy had a nice game former Denver Bronco, which we'll 797 00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:53,440 Speaker 1: talk about in a minute. And James Winston is just 798 00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 1: one of the most beloved athletes. Right now, you're gonna 799 00:50:56,160 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 1: get some weird quotes. There's some second chance Americana stuff 800 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:03,960 Speaker 1: to it, just a big smile on his face. He's 801 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,879 Speaker 1: someone we're super familiar with because of the Heisman till 802 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 1: now America love Jamis and I'm here for it. That 803 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:21,120 Speaker 1: was Thursday night that brought us to Sunday. God, this 804 00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 1: was an ugly slate. I think we can be honest. 805 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:28,880 Speaker 1: Bears Vikings some crazy finishes and this one got involved. 806 00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:35,280 Speaker 1: The Vikings are up two scores, it's over. Here comes 807 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:40,200 Speaker 1: Jake to half dunk on Caleb again. The Bears come back. 808 00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:42,880 Speaker 1: They take this game to overtime. It had no business 809 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:47,880 Speaker 1: going there. The Vikings end up getting the stop. They 810 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,799 Speaker 1: needed a big sack in ot to get the ball 811 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:54,640 Speaker 1: back and set up the field goal. Caleb Cale ends 812 00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 1: up with an incredible or really nice allen I should say, 813 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 1: three hundred and forty yards, two touchdown, no int iNTS, interceptions. 814 00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold gets a backup start. I hate to be 815 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:12,120 Speaker 1: Jakey fantasy football guy, and I'd have to get in 816 00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:15,640 Speaker 1: the numbers a little further. No, Justin Jefferson this game, 817 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:17,879 Speaker 1: which I did not like, but it was a ton 818 00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 1: of Jordan Addison eight catches for one sixty two, TJ. 819 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:25,560 Speaker 1: Hockinson seven for one fourteen. I'll have to check with 820 00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:28,560 Speaker 1: Pennic and Bobby Skinner and maybe Chris Rose check them out. 821 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 1: But for me, I just find it so dumb when 822 00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:36,280 Speaker 1: it teem's like, hey, let's just completely stop Justin Jefferson, 823 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,400 Speaker 1: But the other guys are gonna be open, like the 824 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:41,799 Speaker 1: old New England game plan. We're gonna shut down your 825 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,959 Speaker 1: one thing, but they would also limit your other things. 826 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 1: Like Jordan Addison has big games and he had a 827 00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:51,080 Speaker 1: monster one in the Like, what's the difference if Jordan 828 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 1: Addison has the eight catches for one sixty two or 829 00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:58,719 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson. Anyways, Bears had no business being in this game. 830 00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: They got an on side kick, which doesn't happen in 831 00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:06,280 Speaker 1: the NFL anymore. We'll get to some more special teams 832 00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 1: coming up, but that one was a crazy ending of 833 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 1: the one o'clock games. The other one Cowboys Commanders. This 834 00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:16,279 Speaker 1: game was hideous in the first half, Commanders coming off 835 00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:22,280 Speaker 1: thereby Cooper Rush for the Cowboys. Cowboys field goal blocked, 836 00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:24,680 Speaker 1: field goal missed in the first half. The first half 837 00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:28,399 Speaker 1: ends three to three. The Cowboys kind of dominated. Did 838 00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:31,319 Speaker 1: live bet the Cowboys twin made some money that way, 839 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 1: although it got really scary late because this was one 840 00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 1: of the ugliest ending to a fourth quarter or game 841 00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:43,480 Speaker 1: in NFL history. The Cowboys ended up scoring twenty four 842 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:47,960 Speaker 1: points in the fourth quarter to the Commander's seventeen points 843 00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:55,920 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. I don't even know. At the 844 00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:56,879 Speaker 1: end of this game. 845 00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:57,480 Speaker 3: There was. 846 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 1: Touchdown Cowboys as Turpin muffs the kick and hits a 847 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:11,400 Speaker 1: spin move from the Gods that was, we're being honest, 848 00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:16,560 Speaker 1: really sick. That came after two touchdowns earlier in the quarter, 849 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:19,839 Speaker 1: a nice drive by the Cowboys, and then a nice 850 00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:23,720 Speaker 1: drive by the Commanders that ended in a zach Ertz 851 00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:31,040 Speaker 1: touchdown man and then just the final on side kick 852 00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:35,120 Speaker 1: that the Cowboys returned for a touchdown, which they shouldn't 853 00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 1: have because it did give the Commanders another chance. Commanders 854 00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:40,719 Speaker 1: get another It's not even a hail Mary, but an 855 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 1: eighty six yard touchdown pass to Terry McLaurin. That was 856 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:50,800 Speaker 1: just The Commanders are in a three game losing streak. 857 00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,560 Speaker 1: They've lost a lot of the credit they built up. 858 00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:57,359 Speaker 1: They've got one more game before going into their bye week, 859 00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:02,799 Speaker 1: a pivotal game for them against the Tennessee Titans, who 860 00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,240 Speaker 1: just had a nice win over the Texans this weekend. 861 00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:09,719 Speaker 1: Three game losing streak, the game before you're bye. If 862 00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:12,040 Speaker 1: you lose four in a row into your bye week. 863 00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:14,719 Speaker 1: Jane Daniels is banged up, the league's figuring them out, 864 00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:18,840 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. You win, Jane Daniels looks healthier. You 865 00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:23,759 Speaker 1: ended your losing streak a massive game for the next 866 00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:28,280 Speaker 1: year or two. I amo for the Washington Washington Commanders 867 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:31,160 Speaker 1: against the Tennessee Titans, and those are kind of dirty 868 00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:37,360 Speaker 1: words to be saying this time of year. Lions Colts No. Lions, 869 00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:42,000 Speaker 1: twenty four to six. They're ten and one. Man, I 870 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:44,640 Speaker 1: had a little kid moment where I was watching SVP 871 00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:48,160 Speaker 1: Sports Center last night that I was like, the Lions 872 00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:51,520 Speaker 1: are ten and one and they're nasty. Like I feel 873 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:53,360 Speaker 1: like I would be more excited about them if I 874 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:55,200 Speaker 1: was a little kid. Then maybe I need to get 875 00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:59,160 Speaker 1: more excited about them. I'm working on it. Dolphins are 876 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:01,439 Speaker 1: out the Patriots and the Dolphins are back in the mix, 877 00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:04,239 Speaker 1: and they're the game that we have to watch this Thanksgiving. 878 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:07,560 Speaker 1: Packers Dolphins is the best one on the slate because 879 00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:10,800 Speaker 1: the Cowboys won't pick up Daniel Jones that we wanted content. 880 00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:14,400 Speaker 1: Dolphins are back to looking like the Dolphins to of 881 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 1: four touchdowns. They beat the bad teams. They lose to 882 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,960 Speaker 1: the good teams. Let's see that final test with the Packers, 883 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:24,320 Speaker 1: who are looking good. Buccaneers roll the Giants. I don't know, 884 00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:28,800 Speaker 1: that's go check out talking Giants. Baker Mayfield hit the 885 00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:34,080 Speaker 1: Tommy Cutlets celebration real hard, real hard. He said it 886 00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:36,600 Speaker 1: wasn't premeditated, and part of me believes it because of 887 00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:37,600 Speaker 1: how hard he hit it. 888 00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:41,239 Speaker 3: Like that, like that hard can only come. 889 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:45,760 Speaker 1: It had the venom of like Baker Mayfield getting warmed 890 00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:48,600 Speaker 1: up and getting yelled at by a bunch of New 891 00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:53,160 Speaker 1: Jersey guidos. And that's probably what happened. Bucks five and 892 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:57,560 Speaker 1: six Giants, Very sad. What else do we got here? 893 00:56:57,600 --> 00:56:59,840 Speaker 1: In the one o'clock eight Titans Texans was an in 894 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:03,120 Speaker 1: same game, Keamy Fairbairn blows a couple field goals down 895 00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:05,960 Speaker 1: the stretch tight and steal one from the Texans. Everyone 896 00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 1: questioning the Texans now they haven't been the same in 897 00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:11,960 Speaker 1: a while. They're down to seven and five. Jeez. Panthers 898 00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:15,359 Speaker 1: was a fun one. Panthers with a fun electric tie 899 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:19,560 Speaker 1: it up. Bryce Young looking serviceable better than serviceable, good 900 00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:22,840 Speaker 1: mahomes with one of his quirky mahomes scrambles at the 901 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:25,160 Speaker 1: end of the game sets them up to win. They 902 00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:29,920 Speaker 1: are still ten to one. The four PM slate Packers 903 00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:33,280 Speaker 1: are out the Niners. No brock Purty in this game, 904 00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:35,840 Speaker 1: and the Niners just again looked like a weird shell 905 00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:39,120 Speaker 1: of themselves. Niners. So many penalties in that game made 906 00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:43,040 Speaker 1: it tough to watch. Josh Jacobs, how's your three touchdown day? 907 00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 1: Good for him? Kittle looked good. Seahawks Cardinals. This was 908 00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:49,640 Speaker 1: an ugly divisional matchup if you're looking to bet Unders. 909 00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:53,480 Speaker 1: The rest of the way. Seahawks end up getting more 910 00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:59,840 Speaker 1: or less the deciding touchdown on a interception fourth in 911 00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 1: one incredible play by Devin Witherspoon. I just did a 912 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 1: short on it. You might see that later. I think 913 00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:09,880 Speaker 1: the biggest takeaway from the weekend, well a, how about 914 00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 1: those Denver Broncos bone knicks? Now equal with Jayden Daniels 915 00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:17,920 Speaker 1: as your Rookie of the Year favorite. I have to 916 00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 1: admit it. I watched this game and he was making 917 00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 1: plays whenever they need it. It feels like they're in lockstep. 918 00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 1: Corland Sutton is a dog, an absolute dog. I always 919 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,640 Speaker 1: preferred him to Jerry Judy. I started slow, but he 920 00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:34,240 Speaker 1: has picked it up. He has become Nix's kind of 921 00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:38,920 Speaker 1: safety Valve Bonnix just looks really solid. It looks like 922 00:58:39,600 --> 00:58:42,479 Speaker 1: they have the plays called. It looks like Peyton's playing 923 00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 1: to his strength. He has legs to escape if he 924 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:48,520 Speaker 1: needs it. They beat the Raiders, but they're seven and five. Go, 925 00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 1: Ponies go unfortunately. I think I have an announcement. I 926 00:58:55,440 --> 00:59:00,240 Speaker 1: think my new Super Bowl favorite played last night. I 927 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:03,880 Speaker 1: think it's the Eagles season. Man. The AFC is stacked 928 00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:06,680 Speaker 1: and those playoffs are gonna be a blood bath. You're 929 00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:09,520 Speaker 1: gonna see teams getting each other's way, and are you 930 00:59:09,560 --> 00:59:15,200 Speaker 1: gonna pick anyone over the Chiefs the Eagles? Man, I 931 00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:17,320 Speaker 1: just said I should like these Lions more. And this 932 00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:18,760 Speaker 1: is part of what I was trying to tell you. 933 00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:22,960 Speaker 1: The Eagles are nasty. They got through the adversity to 934 00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 1: start this season. Saquon in That offensive line feels unfair 935 00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:30,080 Speaker 1: and they were talking about it on the broadcast, and 936 00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:33,120 Speaker 1: I'm glad they did it. Felt like the league fully 937 00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:37,919 Speaker 1: zigged offensive passing. Pass the ball on first down, that's 938 00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:40,720 Speaker 1: how you win games. Looks like the Eagles got the 939 00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:46,200 Speaker 1: baddest maulers they could find and They're getting five yards 940 00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:49,840 Speaker 1: a rush if they want it. I genuinely think they 941 00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:54,040 Speaker 1: could run the ball every play and win football games. 942 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:57,560 Speaker 1: It's kind of nuts some of the draws with Jalen 943 00:59:57,640 --> 01:00:01,280 Speaker 1: Hurts getting Saquan as a blocker. They get extra numbers 944 01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:04,800 Speaker 1: that way whenever they need it. Aj Brown is there. 945 01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:09,440 Speaker 1: They were without DeVante Smith against the Rams, and they 946 01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:12,920 Speaker 1: just look like they were in a different class. I 947 01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:15,000 Speaker 1: think they're going to have an easier path through the NFC. 948 01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:17,720 Speaker 1: I think I'm going to DraftKings and I'm putting a 949 01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:20,400 Speaker 1: little cheese on the Birds. Hurts my soul a little bit. 950 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:24,200 Speaker 1: Damn they look good. So that was your NFL football weekend. 951 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:28,680 Speaker 1: We will be back with the little Gobble Gobble Waken Jake, 952 01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:32,840 Speaker 1: are we maybe?
