Speaker 1: my friend. We're gonna be running through all of the

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 1: baseball news, the headlines, there's a lot of injuries, bringing

Speaker 1: you guys over the head with a sledgehammer, but ten

42
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: times to say reminding you, and I'll probably send something

00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: out on socials as well. But make sure you guys,

00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 1: subscribing Fantasy Pros MLB on YouTube is where you'll see

45
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: us live for the final six or seven shows. I'm

46
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: not sure how many we have left, but something like that.

47
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: They will be on YouTube. But let's get into it today.

48
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: We're gonna start with the headline, and we're gonna start

49
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: with Spencer Schrider finally a good one, finally got back

50
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: on track. Six innings, six hits, two in runs, three walks,

51
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: and eight strikeouts for mister Strider. Now, I was talking

52
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 1: about this with Ryan the other day, and I think

53
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 1: we may have discussed Stryder once or twice. Bubba. I

54
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: have no idea what to make of him heading into

55
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 1: next year. What I said to Ryan is I want

56
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: to see a few encouraging starts to end the season,

57
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: leave you with that nice feeling heading into the winter.

58
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: But whatever he does over these next few starts, the

59
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: overall numbers are pretty bad. The strikeouts are down, the

60
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: stuff is down. What do you make a Strider? Do

61
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 1: you trust him the rest of the season and will

62
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: you be buying in presumably at a pretty steep discount

63
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:37,239
Speaker 1: in the off season.

64
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 2: I'll be interested in Strider if the price is right

65
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 2: for sure, like this is a guy coming off the

66
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,919
Speaker 2: internal brace procedure. No pitcher's really gone past like eighty

67
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 2: innings since they've had the procedure given us a new procedure,

68
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 2: so we don't know he's at one hundred and seven

69
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 2: inning mark. He hasn't looked dominant to the strikeouts haven't

70
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 2: been there. Even last night, it started out slow against

71
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 2: the Cubs, bases loaded, no outs to start the game.

72
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 2: He danced out of it like watching the beat Riders.

73
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: They said the fastball was getting hit all over the

74
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,519
Speaker 2: yard off speed pitch, still getting swings and miss That

75
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 2: makes a lot of sense for a guy trying to

76
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 2: come back from an injury like this. So if he

77
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 2: just keeps racking up, you know, the Indians gets closer

78
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 2: to that one fifteen to one twenty. I don't see

79
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,799
Speaker 2: why we shouldn't be interested in Strider. Like we all

80
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 2: talk about Tommy John brace procedure, whatever process it is,

81
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 2: it's usually a year to two years almost before the

82
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 2: guy's back to the where they're supposed to be. So

83
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 2: getting this year under his belt, knowing that he survived

84
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,799
Speaker 2: but didn't look great like it's still good. He's not

85
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 2: getting your repressed out there, So like I'm interested at

86
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 2: the price is right, I just have a hunch if

87
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 2: he finishes the year, and then if you're not a

88
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 2: degenerate like us drafted early, come one or two spring

89
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 2: training starts, that sky that price is skyrocketing.

90
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you if you want cheap shares, and this

91
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 1: pretty much goes for pitchers across the board. If you

92
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: want to get better pitching prices, draft earlier, because as

93
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: soon as the calendar flips of twenty twenty six, all

94
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: those prices shoot up. Todd say, uh should maybe uh.

95
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: Similar to how we ranked the Grom heading into this year,

96
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: I was incredibly aggressive on the ground. Probably too aggressive.

97
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 1: I was a little bit too aggressive. I won't be

98
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 1: like ranking Strider as a top five pitcher. Probably I

99
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: think he can. He's probably in like the ten to

100
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: fifteen range something like that. Looking at the early draft

101
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: that you did. He went in the early part of

102
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: the sixth round to a fantastic player in Jenny Butler,

103
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: one pick ahead of you, with Trevor McGill going to

104
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: one pick after. But I think Strider, if you are

105
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: getting him in the sixth seventh round, that might not

106
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: be lasting into next year. But if you can get

107
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: into some early drafts and get Strider in the eighties

108
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: nineties around pick one hundred, I think that's probably a

109
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,360
Speaker 1: pretty decent idea. You can probably expect a pretty nice

110
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: bounce back from him in the price is never going

111
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,679
Speaker 1: to be that cheap again. I can almost guarantee throughout

112
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 1: the rest of his career you may never see Strider

113
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: that cheap again. But on the other side of that start,

114
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 1: Kate Horton continued his incredible second half six and the

115
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: third four hits, one ear and run, no walks, two strikeouts.

116
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: The strikeouts aren't amazing, but when you're getting what you've

117
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 1: been getting from Kate Horton, I don't think you care

118
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: if there are any strikeouts. With the ratios. It's been

119
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: ten second half starts and he's allowed a total of

120
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,600
Speaker 1: four runs. I think at this point he is the

121
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 1: National League rookie of the year. He is now the

122
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: guy who's favored in the odds. He's jumped ahead of

123
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 1: Baldwin and Collins and all the rest of them. What

124
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: is your trust level in Kate Horton? Do you see

125
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 1: this as a true breakout where next year he is

126
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: an sp two or an SP three or is this

127
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 1: potentially just a really really hot streak that people are

128
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 1: gonna maybe overreact to.

129
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 2: It's a great run. He's gonna probably win the Rookie

130
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 2: the Year unless something crazy happens. I'm still kind of

131
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 2: skeptical of My theory is I always want strikeout guys

132
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 2: if you had because you're going to draft him early enough.

133
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 2: Like he's not a SP five or six where a

134
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 2: strikeouts dwindle type thing. So that's a bummer, and I'll

135
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 2: just be the cold water guy. If you look deeper in,

136
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 2: I think it's two seventy RA, which is great, but

137
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,119
Speaker 2: a four to three to one Sierra is uh, probably more.

138
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 2: You're getting closer to where reality sets in. We've got

139
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 2: a guy with a two to sixty one babbit on

140
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 2: a forty four percent ground ball rate. I think there's

141
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 2: a few things that are going to kind of come back.

142
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 2: But could he be a three to sixty RA guy

143
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 2: with a you know, seven point five k per nine

144
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 2: probably still a very good starting pitcher, So that it

145
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 2: interests me. But I'm not gonna be probably as aggressive

146
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 2: as others when they see this amazing run he's been on.

147
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 2: It's been outstanding. He's helping fantasy teams get to the titles,

148
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 2: There's no doubt about that. But for twenty twenty six,

149
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have kid gloves on a guy making his

150
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 2: first long jaunt at the big league level.

151
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: I think that's totally fair. Like if he ever lives

152
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: up to the strikeout upside we saw in the minors,

153
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,919
Speaker 1: be a different story. But he was in the thirty

154
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: plus percent range. He's been right at twenty this year.

155
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: The swinging strike rate is at eleven percent, so he's

156
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: earned that twenty percent strikeout rate. Is there a year

157
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 1: in the future where he could get into the twenty

158
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: five twenty six percent range, for sure, but I don't

159
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 1: know that you can expect that immediately next year and

160
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 1: after this run, Like you mentioned the surface, that's two

161
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: seventy r a one eleven whip. He's gonna be kind

162
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 1: of expensive, especially if he continues this through the end

163
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 1: of September. So I like Kate Horton, he's helping a

164
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 1: few of my teams, but that price is probably going

165
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 1: to be a little out of my range. Let's talk

166
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: about Connolly early. I would not blame you if you

167
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 1: hadn't heard this before the last couple of days, but

168
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: he had a phenomenal, phenomenal debut in a tough venue

169
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: in Sacramento. I recommended sitting him, and my apologies for that,

170
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: because he went five shutout innings with eleven strikeouts, five hits,

171
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: one walk. He had a twenty one percent swinging strike

172
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: rate and a thirty eight percent csw But I'm not

173
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: sure if you watched this one or if you caught

174
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: up after the fact, what were your thoughts on early?

175
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 1: Is he somebody that you would be running to the

176
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: waiver wire to pick up right now?

177
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 2: Well, first off, don't apologize for not recommending started. And

178
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: we're talking about a guy making his debut and one

179
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 2: of the best hitting ballparks in all of baseball, and

180
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 2: you have no clue what the the leashes that he'd have.

181
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 2: So that's a fair hold there. He was outstanding DA's.

182
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 2: You know, they can fluctuate, they can put up a

183
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 2: million runs, they can do this too, so that was

184
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 2: pretty big. I'd be interested once we get some more

185
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 2: news like they have Bao, Gilito and Crochet locked into

186
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 2: the rotation and then it's up for grabs like Korra

187
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 2: flat out said we don't know, like kind of what

188
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 2: we're doing here. We're gonna mix a match tol a

189
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 2: start and Wednesday, but he's gonna get piggybacks potentially by Harrison.

190
00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 2: Lots going on there. So if Early sticks, it's awesome

191
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 2: because he has the a's at home in Boston and

192
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 2: then at Tampa Bay, another good ballpark to hit him.

193
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 2: But it's a two step next week, which is very

194
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 2: very enticing, and that could be followed by you know,

195
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 2: a start against the Tigers to finish the season, assuming

196
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 2: Dustin May is not back. So I would be interested

197
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 2: in Early, I'll say that for sure, But again, you

198
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 2: don't know what these teams are doing.

199
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 3: These are young arms.

200
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 2: There's a lot of things that can be you know,

201
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 2: coming to play the screw things up.

202
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it was very encouraging, but like, even

203
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: if he's pitching at Fenway, it's a pretty pretty hitter

204
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 1: friendly park. If he goes to Tampa's hitter friendly park,

205
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 1: I think if you're in a really shallow league, I

206
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: don't know that i'd want to take the chance if

207
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: it's like a ten teamer. If it's twelve and deeper,

208
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 1: I would be willing to do it. Whatever fab you

209
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: have left. Maybe it's very hard to figure out how

210
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: much everybody has at this time of year, but maybe

211
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 1: throw half of what you got left at him, a quarter,

212
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 1: a third. I mean, you might have five fave dollars left,

213
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 1: or you might have none and you might have to

214
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,439
Speaker 1: maybe hope for a zero dollar bid. What are kid gloves?

215
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: Kid club? But when you take it easy, you know,

216
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: when you're not like pushing guy to the extent that

217
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: you mean.

218
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 3: I thought that was a common term.

219
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 1: Sorry I thought so too, But it's okay. We kidded

220
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: all to all types around here. Let's talk about Mike

221
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: Trout though I do want to bring up Mike Trout.

222
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: He did have a solid game yesterday. It was two

223
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: for four, you had a walk, three runs. But he's

224
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: also in the midst of the longest home run rout

225
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: of his career. He's stuck on three hundred and ninety

226
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: eight for the career and the season as a whole.

227
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he has a one to seventeen WRC plus

228
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 1: he has a seven eighty seven ops. Those are fine,

229
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: but he's hitting two thirty three. He's striking out thirty

230
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: percent of the time. He only has two steals. He's

231
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 1: kind of boring, He's kind of mediocre at this point.

232
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: As much as I never thought we'd say that about Trout,

233
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do with him. I think

234
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: at this point I'm kind of done with him as

235
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 1: a fantasy asset because people will see the name Mike

236
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: Trout and still think, well, maybe there's one more year,

237
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: and maybe there is one more good year in him,

238
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: But I'm not really willing to pay the price at

239
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 1: this point, at age thirty four, are you Are you

240
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: a full fade on Trout next year or maybe have

241
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 1: some interest in the middle rounds.

242
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 2: That been a fade for a couple of years now.

243
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 2: Love the legacy of Mike Trout. We lost out on

244
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 2: seeing the next great thing due to injuries, which is

245
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 2: a shame because if people don't remember, go back from

246
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 2: twenty nineteen and earlier and just watch some of the

247
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 2: best baseball player you'll ever see on the face of

248
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 2: the planet in Mike Trout, And like I said, injuries

249
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 2: derailed him.

250
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 3: It's a shame.

251
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 2: He's gonna keep playing in Anaheim as a DH for

252
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 2: the time being. But I don't think there's a lot

253
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 2: like at best you get Andrew McCutcheon, I think right

254
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,199
Speaker 2: about now as a comp if you want to think

255
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 2: about that, and that's not going to do it for me.

256
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 3: On draft day.

257
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 1: I mean just looking at Trout, like you mentioned, like

258
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: what he did, people forget now could it's been a while,

259
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 1: We've had impressive seasons from Judge and different players O Tawni,

260
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 1: and you kind of forget how good Mike Trout was.

261
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 1: He had sixty three wins above replacement by the time

262
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,959
Speaker 1: he was twenty six years old, Like he was unbelievable.

263
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 1: Every single year was ten war eight or nine, ten

264
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 1: eleven like he was. He was truly brilliant. But at

265
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: this point, I feel like what you're paying for is

266
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: the name value and who in the chat Todd said

267
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 1: it in the chat. Trout is the third Angels outfielder

268
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: on my board in twenty twenty six. Hard to really

269
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: argue that with Adele and with Taylor Ward in town.

270
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 1: Let's talk Wan Soto. He's the first member of the

271
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: thirty thirty club. This season, he's been one of the

272
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 1: best players in fantasy as a whole, which makes it

273
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: so funny Bobbo to think back at the beginning of

274
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: the year when everybody's like, oh my god, they paid

275
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: for Wan Soda, how could they have gotten one? So

276
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 1: he's a bust. He's awful. Wan Soto is the number

277
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 1: five Fantasy player for the season thirty five dollars value.

278
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: He is a thirty thirty bat for the first time

279
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 1: in his career. He's only hitting two sixty one, which

280
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 1: maybe people don't like, but I don't care when he

281
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: has one hundred and nine runs, thirty eight homers, ninety

282
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: four ribbies, and thirty steals. What do you think about Sodo?

283
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: Do you think he is? Like after we get past

284
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: Otani and Judge and maybe Bobby Witt Junior, is Soto

285
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 1: like locked in? Is that fourth or fifth pick next year?

286
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: You think him jay Ram? Like, how would you rank

287
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 1: those first couple of guys?

288
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 2: You think I got Soto ahead of jay Ram just

289
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 2: because you need five outfielders in those formats If it's

290
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 2: less than a five outflour league, that third base to

291
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 2: Jay Ram goes a long long ways. But and maybe

292
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 2: he still put jay Rammerly, I'm not gonna argue that.

293
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 2: When I love Jay Ram, he's basically thirty thirty machine.

294
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 2: First time Sodo's done it, and what's crazy with Sodo?

295
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 2: We know the powers there, you know the bag and

296
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 2: average actually down this season. He's stealing, which is nuts.

297
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 2: The career high was twelve stolen bases before this season.

298
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 2: So it begs the question, like do we go is

299
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 2: this sustainable? Maybe this is his first season with the Mets,

300
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 2: this is a Mets thing. Maybe they're going to do

301
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 2: this lots of questions. That's what we get to do

302
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty six or twenty five five off season.

303
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 2: That's a but I think he deserves to be near

304
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 2: the top. He's always been one of the best pure hitters.

305
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 2: I think it's just been stolen bases has kept him

306
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 2: down the board, like he's behind like a Kyle Tucker,

307
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 2: even for me in the past, because Tucker at least

308
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 2: gets twenty steals. But now if we believe that Soto's

309
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 2: a twenty plus thirty plus stolen base guy, He's in

310
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 2: the top five discussion without a question. For me, like,

311
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 2: let's not forget Joe that one. Sodo will turn twenty

312
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 2: seven this October. Seems like he's been playing forever because

313
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 2: he has been so we technically might not have seen

314
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 2: the best of one Soto yet.

315
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 1: I think that's totally fair. Yeah, like what I just

316
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: mentioned about, like what Trout's done up until age twenty six,

317
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: Soto isn't on quite that level. I wouldn't say, but

318
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: he has forty one point seven f four through his

319
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: age twenty six season, and we're probably going to add

320
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: on another, probably a full win until the end of

321
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: the season. At this rate he's going, he's phenomenal and

322
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have any problem taking him as the fourth

323
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 1: pick or the fifth pick next season. Somebody asked about

324
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,719
Speaker 1: Ellie and the chat. Ellie's been very, very good this year.

325
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,319
Speaker 1: He is the number seventeen ranked player according to Fangrafts

326
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 1: a twenty six dollars value. It is nineteen homers, thirty

327
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 1: three steals, he's hitting two sixty seven. Is Ellie still

328
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,559
Speaker 1: in that conversation of a top five to seven pick

329
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:43,719
Speaker 1: or do you think we have to move him down

330
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: a little bit.

331
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 2: I think it's worth the discussion of moving him down

332
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 2: a bit. He's still very good. If like, if you're

333
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 2: playing roto, it's great. If you're playing head to head,

334
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 2: he's destroying you, absolutely destroying you. Because you mentioned seventeenth

335
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 2: on the play Raider that's great. Right now, let's talk

336
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 2: second half of baseball, where he's much lower. We did

337
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 2: we did Abubba in the bloom first half or second

338
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 2: half Player Raiders show like a week or two ago.

339
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 2: And if you if you look at Ellie's numbers in

340
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 2: the second half of the season, as my thing is

341
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 2: glitching here, it's been dreadfully he's hitting. He's hitting two

342
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 2: thirty five, one total home run Joe and eight stolen bases,

343
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 2: like he's destroying your head. To head the season long

344
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 2: numbers look great. We know there's gonna be peaks and

345
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 2: valleys with the skill set ability of the crews. That's normal.

346
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 2: But we got to fix things here. He's still striking

347
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 2: out close to thirty percent of the time during this

348
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 2: he has a three thirty six babbit still hitting two

349
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 2: thirty five.

350
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 3: That's not good.

351
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 2: So I've always kind of been skeptical of the profile

352
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 2: because of that. I get it, he's a monster when

353
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 2: he's clicking, but you have to be in the right

354
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 2: format to enjoy that because he's he's destroying you right now.

355
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 1: I didn't know it was that bad because he wasn't somebody.

356
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 1: I don't think I have any Ellie this year, he

357
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 1: just wasn't the name I was landing on. I either

358
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: had the first couple of picks and I went out

359
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 1: Tawny Judge wit or I was at the back end.

360
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 1: I didn't really pick in the in the middle of

361
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: the first round a lot this year, so I didn't

362
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: really realized that the second half had been as bad

363
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 1: as it had for Ellie still a first rounder though

364
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: locked in first rounder, you think.

365
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 2: Oh, he will be because, like I said, is the

366
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 2: skill set's awesome. If he clicks, the dude's a fight.

367
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 2: He could be the only other fifty to fifty guy

368
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 2: in baseball potentially. Like he's got that skill set. It's

369
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 2: just the inconsistencies we've seen. You know, if I want

370
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 2: to give Soda the tip for age, Ellie's only twenty three.

371
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 2: I'll be twenty four in January, another super young ball player.

372
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 2: A lot can change. Skills are awesome, it's just it's

373
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 2: going to be a volatile profile that you have to

374
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 2: be able to stomach.

375
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: Essentially, Yeah, I think that that's totally fair. The team

376
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 1: around him has been okay, not amazing. So there's a

377
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 1: lot of factors with Ellie, and there's a lot of

378
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: factors with the next game we're going to talk about

379
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 1: to Jordan Alvarez, he was hitting the ball the other

380
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 1: way every time. Last night against the Jays, it seemed

381
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: like three for five and he is now twenty for

382
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 1: forty five since he's returned in thirteen games with three homers.

383
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 1: This is gonna mess with my hat a little bit

384
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 1: now because I had kind of gotten to the point where, Okay,

385
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: I'm not bothering with Jordonnalvarez in the first couple rounds.

386
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 1: But if he just continues to tear the cover off

387
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 1: the ball and reminds us all of what he can

388
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: do at his peak, maybe he does get back into

389
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: the second round. I don't know where do you think

390
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 1: Jordan Alvarez belongs to go and or deserves to go?

391
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 2: In drafts next year, he'll go in the second round.

392
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 2: He deserves to go in the second round. If he

393
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 2: can play one hundred and twenty games. That's the big if.

394
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 2: Like the skills have never been in question, it's can

395
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 2: he stay healthy, and it's that's just been the constant

396
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 2: dilemma with him. He played one hundred and thirty seven

397
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 2: games last year was great, one fourteen the year before,

398
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 2: one thirty five, one forty four. So yeah, if you

399
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 2: get one hundred and twenty hundred thirty games, you're getting

400
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 2: thirty plus homers. You get in an elite bag in

401
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 2: average doesn't get you a hundred RBIs one done that

402
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 2: once and that's probably because of the limited games. So

403
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 2: it's just one of those things. Can you again, it's

404
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 2: roster construction, that's the name of the game. And will

405
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,479
Speaker 2: beat that word to those words to death this offseason.

406
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 2: But Jordan is a great piece. He hits snot out

407
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 2: of the baseball. You just have to build accordingly when

408
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:04,680
Speaker 2: you roster him.

409
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:06,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean or an.

410
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 3: ELI combo is very interesting.

411
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 1: Actually, yeah, you're you're cementing the speed and the power there.

412
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,440
Speaker 1: The batting average will be pretty I mean, Ellie's actually

413
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: hitting two sixty seven this year and you combine that

414
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: with if Fjordana On hits three hundred, that's a pretty

415
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 1: solid base I do like it. I like it a lot.

416
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 1: Somebody else I like a lot Jackson Scherio. I think

417
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: it's been relatively quiet how good he has been this year.

418
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: It's talked about, but I don't know if it's talked

419
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 1: about enough. And he's missed a little bit of time.

420
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 1: It's been one hundred and fifteen games, but he's hitting

421
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 1: two seventy nine with seventy eight runs, nineteen homers, seventy

422
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 1: one ribies, in eighteen stolen bases. This guy's twenty one

423
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,880
Speaker 1: years old. Maybe he's turned twenty two actually by this point.

424
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: But what we're splitting the hair. This guy is a baby,

425
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 1: and he's already dominating baseball. He's the fifty fourth ranked

426
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 1: player for the season as a whole, and despite having

427
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: missed a little bit of time, if you're looking at

428
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 1: his plate appearances, he's lagging quite behind, like he's on

429
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 1: par with Brent Rooker in one hundred and twenty fewer

430
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: played appearances for fantasy value this year, So cheerio. I

431
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: guess the same kind of question. Is he first round,

432
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 1: second round? Maybe somewhere on the turn. I feel like

433
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: if I take him at the one two turn and

434
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: pair him with literally anybody there, I'm gonna be pretty

435
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:12,879
Speaker 1: happy with it.

436
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was a target of mine this year, he'll

437
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 2: be a target of mine this upcoming here. He turns

438
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,120
Speaker 2: twenty two in March, by the way, so yes, he's

439
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 2: a baby. When it comes to this. Absolutely love Jackson Cheerio.

440
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 2: This is the guy who said, coming into this last season,

441
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 2: if there's ever another run on the Quna, this is hit.

442
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:29,879
Speaker 3: He is him.

443
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 2: I had somebody on our discord actually this morning, and

444
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 2: bub and the Bloom said, why isn't Cheerio running. I said, well,

445
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,440
Speaker 2: he just came back from a hamstring injury. They probably

446
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 2: wanted to play in the postseason. He's hitting the snot

447
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 2: out of the baseball and hitting home runs. They'll sacrifice

448
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,159
Speaker 2: the steals. This dude's a beast. He's awesome. He's just

449
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 2: I don't have enough words. I think we talked about

450
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 2: him last week after you saw him live in Toronto.

451
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 2: He's so darn good and we haven't even come close

452
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 2: to scratching the tip of the iceberg.

453
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: Here obligatory Jackson TiO segment for Bubba to wax poetic

454
00:18:58,640 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: about Cheerio.

455
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely, I'm.

456
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 1: Happy to throw him on the sheet every day the

457
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 1: rest of the season. I can talk about Jackson Curio

458
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,719
Speaker 1: until I'm blue in the face. I can also talk

459
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 1: about his teammate William Contreras. And you know, this has

460
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: been honestly a really solid season for Willie. It started

461
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: off pretty poor, and I think people who drafted him

462
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,119
Speaker 1: early on in the first couple months were kicking themselves,

463
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 1: especially with what cal Rawley was doing. But Willy's up

464
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 1: to two sixty three with eighty five runs, seventeen homers,

465
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: seventy one ribis, and six steals. I'm work shopping an

466
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 1: early hot take for twenty twenty six that William Contrez

467
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 1: is going to out earn cal Rawley. Is that crazy?

468
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 3: Nope, William's been my number one guy.

469
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

470
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 2: People might be like, this is why we paid a

471
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 2: high draft pick. Let's remember, right out the gate, he

472
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 2: basically fractures a finger and he's been playing through it

473
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 2: the entire time. This is the volatility of drafting early catchers.

474
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 2: They get banged up. That's just the reality of it.

475
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 2: But since the All Star Break win, let's think, oh,

476
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 2: he had a couple of days to let things just heal,

477
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 2: just do their thing. He's hitting two ninety four with

478
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 2: eleven home runs, thirty seven runs scored, thirty four RBI.

479
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 2: Is in a steal Since the All Star Break, it's

480
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 2: like a month and a half. That's the William King,

481
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 2: William as I call him, of old He's been my

482
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,919
Speaker 2: number one catcher the last two seasons. I have no

483
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:08,919
Speaker 2: problem if anybody wants to make a number one. I

484
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,159
Speaker 2: also understand that Kyle Rawly should probably be number one.

485
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 2: I get that, but I have zero problems. William is

486
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 2: that good. And the reason I've always loved him is

487
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 2: he plays every single day. If it's not catcher or

488
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 2: DH He's the new Salve Pez. Essentially love him.

489
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, six hundred and eighteen played appearances, a second to

490
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 1: Rawley only by nine. And you know, I'll probably end

491
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 1: up ranking Raleigh first. I don't know if I could

492
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: rank Contrez ahead of him, but we'll see, Like Willie

493
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 1: at worse will be number two. I think the guy

494
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 1: is phenomenal. He brings such a stable floor for batting average,

495
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 1: for play appearances. Like you said, he's gonna chip in

496
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: a couple of stolen bases where you don't really see

497
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: that for most catchers. I really like and give him

498
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,120
Speaker 1: a whole offseason to heal that finger. I think we're

499
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: going to be cooking with gas with Jackson Surio. Let's

500
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,919
Speaker 1: take a couple of your questions bounce back for YERI today.

501
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:58,880
Speaker 1: You know, I think that if you're in a deeper league.

502
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 1: I'm fine with starting him. If you are in like

503
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,959
Speaker 1: a fantasy playoff situation and this is it for you,

504
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if i'd want to chance it.

505
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 2: It's a great matchup first the Nats, but I will

506
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 2: say the Nats are hitting better, they don't strike out

507
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 2: a lot. We'll talk more NAT's prop bets later. And

508
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 2: Uri has been bad the last two He's you know,

509
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 2: the coming off to Tommy Johnny might have hit the wall.

510
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 2: I'd be very sketchy about starting him today.

511
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think that's totally fair if you are,

512
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: if you're in a pinch, if you're already seeing that

513
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: your era for the week is at like ten something

514
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:34,120
Speaker 1: and you have nothing to lose. Sure, if you're hugging ratios.

515
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 1: Uri is a risk because Washington lit him up not

516
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 1: too long ago. It might have been the last start

517
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 1: or two ago, but Washington very recently got to Urie,

518
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 1: so gives you a little bit of pause, hang on

519
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: to Doyle, or time to part ways. I think I'm

520
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,360
Speaker 1: okay with it. They're away the rest of the week,

521
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 1: they're not in Colorado, so that does make it a

522
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 1: little bit easier. What Breton Doyle has done in the

523
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 1: second half has been you know, he did start to

524
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: figure it out for a while, but he has cooled

525
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 1: off over the last couple weeks. Again, So I don't

526
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,360
Speaker 1: have a big problem moving on, bubb, But what about.

527
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 2: You if you want to fine, I'm a Doyle believer.

528
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 2: I get it, but you need to make your moves.

529
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 2: But next week they have six games at home, three

530
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 2: against Miami, three against the Angels. Looking at the weekly

531
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 2: planner that we have, it's one of the best hitting

532
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 2: matchups of the week. So if you can afford to

533
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:20,640
Speaker 2: hold him and bench him if you have to, that's fine.

534
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 2: If if you're fighting for the playoffs this week, I get.

535
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: It, yeah, or if this is the final week, right,

536
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 1: there are people I've had a couple of questions that

537
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 1: the season ends this week. And if that's the case,

538
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: somebody's told me, Like somebody said to me, like, I'm

539
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 1: gonna drop Nick Pavetta on Friday, And I was like,

540
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: what do you mean You're gonna drop Nick Vet? It's like, oh,

541
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 1: my season ends on Sunday. It's like, okay, yeah, well

542
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 1: that's the time of year it is, so once your guy.

543
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 1: That's another thing too, that people kind of forget about.

544
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 1: If you're in your final week of the year and

545
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 1: you know once de gram Crochet, whoever makes their last

546
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: start got them, got them. You know, somebody might see

547
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:50,120
Speaker 1: him on the waiver wire and think, oh my god,

548
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,400
Speaker 1: pick them up when they have no starts remaining. You're

549
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: gaming the system a little bit there, but just something

550
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 1: cheeky to keep in the back of your head. Joe

551
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 1: g which is worse not making the correct move or

552
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: making the correct move that turns out to be terrible

553
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,160
Speaker 1: with the results. Asking as a Fernando Cruz Rooko owner

554
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 1: who had it to help with ratios, I feel for you.

555
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: I think there was five eernies yesterday for him. It's

556
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 1: tough man like middle relievers, even late inning relievers who

557
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 1: aren't locked in as closers, it can go very well

558
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 1: for you. This is also the bad side of that

559
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:20,440
Speaker 1: happening is that they give up a lot of runs

560
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,159
Speaker 1: and don't have enough innings to really work off a

561
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 1: lot of the damage. So feeling for you, Joe, keeping

562
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 1: you in our thoughts today. Bud does early pitch again

563
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 1: this weekend. We talked about that earlier. It looks like

564
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,639
Speaker 1: as of today he's lined up for the athletics unless

565
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 1: something has changed, the.

566
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 3: Show two steps next week, so not likely anything the

567
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 3: rest of this week.

568
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I I misread in Boston on Monday, right, okay, right, right, right,

569
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 1: that's that's my mistake. I thought this was going to

570
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,879
Speaker 1: be on the weekend for some reason. But yes, that

571
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 1: is that is next week. That's why we got Paba

572
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 1: here so we can keep my head screwed on, right.

573
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,640
Speaker 1: I've heard rumors of a lingering quad injury for Ellie.

574
00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 1: I feel like I have heard that talked about, but

575
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 1: it hasn't been something that's been focused on a lot.

576
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 1: Maybe he is dealing with something which would definitely explain

577
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 1: some of the troubles he's had in the second half.

578
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 1: Have you heard anything concrete about that?

579
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 2: Now, There's always buzz around key players when they're not producing,

580
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 2: so there could be something, right, smoke, sometimes there's fire,

581
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,360
Speaker 2: but yeah, I haven't seen anything concrete.

582
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:23,919
Speaker 1: Walkie Slug. Appreciate the follow w Smeirak. I'm definitely butchering

583
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 1: these apologies, but appreciate the follows. CCD goalies cheering one

584
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,679
Speaker 1: hundred bits as well. Appreciate you need a Swiss Army

585
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 1: knife for the playoffs, Shaw kemp Bom on the aisle. Now,

586
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 1: this is a tough time of year. Durban, Clement or Edmund.

587
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 1: Clement's gonna play pretty much every day now with the

588
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 1: bow injury. Durbin has been not too bad. I think

589
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: it might be Clements. I don't feel great about it's

590
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:48,679
Speaker 1: Clement or Durbin. I think because I don't really have

591
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 1: interest in Edmund. What do you think, Bubba, Yeah, Clement's

592
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 1: all batting average, no power. Durban gets your speed, a

593
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 1: little bit of pop. Honestly, you didn't mention here. If

594
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 1: you want a Swiss army knife, go look at Brooks Baldwin.

595
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: He's sitting for average, little pop hand speed, plays every

596
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,399
Speaker 1: day in eligible like four positions, So that'd be a

597
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: dude I'd look at potentially, Brooks Baldwin. It's a good name.

598
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 1: It's a good shout. JP four the win five also

599
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,360
Speaker 1: just followed. Really appreciate you guys. A reminder I said

600
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,159
Speaker 1: it earlier, but if you came in late. It's our

601
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 1: last show of the year on Twitch. We are going

Speaker 1: sure you guys are going over there YouTube dot com

605
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 1: slash Fantasy Pros MLB. I believe although who types in

Speaker 1: Baseball and you guys will find it that way. In

608
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: a keeper league, which would you keep out of these five? Meryll,

609
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,680
Speaker 1: Riley Green, and Cody Bellinger profar are Keshel If you

610
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: only have one option for me, I think it's probably

611
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 1: Jackson Merrill.

612
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's probably Meryl. I'm not the biggest Meryll fan,

613
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 2: but I get it. The other one to be Luke Keishel.

614
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 2: I think there's a lot to like there, but it's

615
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 2: probably Jackson Merrill.

616
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: Yes, as I say this, you know, I think maybe

617
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 1: I'm disrespecting Riley Green a little bit who has a

618
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,360
Speaker 1: thirty two over one hundred and four riby season. Yeah,

619
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 1: it's a tricky it's a tricky question, but I think

620
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: looking projecting forward for the next two three years, like

621
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: you would in a keeper league, I feel like Merrill

622
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,400
Speaker 1: is probably the one that I'd want to have. Yep,

623
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 1: but it's a tough question for sure. For twenty twenty six,

624
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 1: how would you drink teal Ramirez and Basayo. Oh Man,

625
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: Ramirez Teal Bisayo. I think, but I could flip flop

626
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 1: the first two and not have a big problem with it.

627
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,919
Speaker 2: What do you think, Ramirez Besio Teal for me? But

628
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 2: I like all three of them, like literally, it's dealer's choice.

629
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 2: But I Goose is the clear number one for me.

630
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 2: I love that skill set, power and speed.

631
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot of fun catchers right now. Thanks

632
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: for the forecast the bench, he goes, let's keep it

633
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 1: going now and we have the three up and the

634
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 1: three down. Ranger Suarez mentioned him the other day, but

635
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,879
Speaker 1: I think he's worth mentioning again. Six shutout innings of

636
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 1: one hit ball with three walks and twelve strikeouts, the

637
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: second time this week that pitcher has twelve strikeouts against

638
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,680
Speaker 1: the Mets, who have been the best offense in baseball

639
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: for the last month or so. Joey Cantillo eight shoutout

640
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: innings of his own against the Royals, allowed four hits

641
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 1: and no walks with five strikeouts, and Harrison Bader, who

642
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 1: is looking unbelievable as a Philly three for five with

643
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 1: a homer, two runs, and two Ribby's. But anything to

644
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 1: add on Suarez, Kntillo hater or potentially all of them.

645
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 2: No, it's I appreciate Ranger Swarz's duty. The Giants now

646
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 2: two backs of the Mets in the wild card, so

647
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 2: thank you there. It's impressive. You mentioned the Mets offense

648
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 2: is so good. They're hitting over three hundred with like

649
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 2: a one seventy w RC plus the last month. First

650
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 2: lefties and he just dealt So that's a thing of beauty.

651
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 2: And Noah Cameron opposite can Tillo. That was like a

652
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 2: weird picture duel in that game. That's all I got there.

653
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:38,239
Speaker 1: That's what I was kind of hoping for the night

654
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 1: before with Ryan Bergert, but that one was not exactly

655
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: what we were hoping for. On the downs, Zach Gallen,

656
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: speaking of what we're not hoping for, Zach Gallen, who

657
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 1: had shown signs of life, was looking like somebody you

658
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 1: could trust again five and run, three walks, five hits

659
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: over six and two thirds. He did strike out six.

660
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 1: I think I don't really know what to make a Gallon.

661
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: It's gonna take this the winter of going through the

662
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 1: data and everything, but I don't think he's going to

663
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 1: be a big target of mine heading into next year, Baba,

664
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:03,919
Speaker 1: what about you?

665
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,400
Speaker 2: If the price is right, I'll bite again. I enjoyed

666
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,120
Speaker 2: the price tag this year. It's a down year, finishing

667
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:11,719
Speaker 2: strong even last night. You have but three run home

668
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 2: to a domage in the first so thnk only a

669
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 2: looted two runs over the next five and two thirds

670
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:19,960
Speaker 2: like he kept it together overall. I think there's something there.

671
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 2: He's had such a workload the last three four or

672
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 2: five seasons that I'm kind of curious. So the price

673
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 2: has to be right.

674
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 1: After that playoff run, right, that was like a two

675
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,119
Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen inning season, and then he added on another

676
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 1: thirty or so innings in the playoffs, and since then,

677
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: I don't know that he's ever really looked fully back

678
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 1: to where he was. Hey, guys, how do you feel

679
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: about Tyler Wells against Skeins and the Pirates today? I've

680
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: added him in a bunch of spots. I've added him in.

681
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: This is like the top streaming option for today. So

682
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: if you can do that still, I would absolutely be

683
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 1: doing that. I'll continue with the downs. Matthew Libertor, this

684
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 1: guy who's driven me crazy this year. Another rough outing

685
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 1: four innings, five and run, seven hits, in three walks.

686
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 1: He looked like he was kind of breaking out in

687
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: the first half, and then he's given every bit of

688
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 1: it back in the second half, and then Alexi Diaz

689
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: four and runs up the coming on in relief and

690
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 1: walking three. You might not have realized he ended up

691
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: with the Braves. You know, I talked about it. I

692
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 1: forget if it was with you or with Ryan Belly. Oh,

693
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: maybe we speculate on Alexis Diaz, like if it's the

694
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: fiftieth round. Maybe at this point because it's looking pretty

695
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 1: rough for him. Baba, any potential you think you'll ever

696
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 1: have a full blown closer job again and give you

697
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 1: another twenty five save season.

698
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 2: I never say never, because Brad Keller's closing games for

699
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 2: the Cubs right now, so anything's possible. He's got the

700
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 2: pedigree like he's got to figure it out though, because

701
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 2: he's a walking disaster at the moment.

702
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very dark for Daz. And speaking of dark,

703
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 1: let's get to the injury segment. Kyle Tucker placed on

704
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 1: the aile retroactive to September sixth with a left half strain.

705
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: Are you dropping him or are you thinking maybe you'd

706
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 1: hold on here? Uh?

707
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 2: That was a big talking point last night's show. I'm

708
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 2: gonna wait for news through the weekend. Let's put it

709
00:29:58,160 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 2: that way, because right now, if they're thinking it's a

710
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 2: minimal when he comes back on the seventeenth, if you

711
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 2: play the full season, that's like ten games worth of

712
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 2: Kyle Tucker, which is probably better than anything you'll find

713
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 2: on the wire for the last week of FAB. So

714
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 2: I'm trying to hold if I can. I get it

715
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 2: if you need to drop, especially if your season's coming

716
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 2: to an end shortly, Yeah, I get it.

717
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: And I think it's almost the same thing here with

718
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 1: Boba Schett. This one like somebody get the bagpipes out.

719
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 1: Man place on the aisle with a sprained left knee

720
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 1: will undergo treatment next week before they determine the next steps.

721
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 1: I think that if you are in a pinch, you

722
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: can drop him. He's probably gonna come back before the

723
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 1: end of the season, and maybe you get another week

724
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: out of a sheet, and a week out of aa

725
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 1: sheet could be twenty hits the way he's been hitting

726
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: in the second half. But it's looking pretty bad right now.

727
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's a more a dropped in Tucker

728
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 2: to me, because the week of treatment than reevaluate. The

729
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 2: Jays are in the postseason. Obviously they're fighting for the East,

730
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 2: as you know, but they're in. They need Baschett in

731
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 2: game one of whatever to round they're in, so they

732
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,239
Speaker 2: don't really care. I think as much as rushing him back,

733
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 2: they want to get him right. It's really weird. Joe.

734
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 2: He rain delay X rays good, comes out and finishes

735
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 2: that game. And now it's been ever since.

736
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,719
Speaker 1: I've been tilting. I've been tilting, man like. They had

737
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: a couple of off days last week and into this week.

738
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 1: I think they had Monday off and right afterwards on Tuesday,

739
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: he goes on the IL can't drop him in the

740
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 1: keeper league, nor would you You should keep Bushette in

741
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 1: a keeper league. He's been fantastic. Can team stop waiting

742
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 1: until Tuesday to tell us Bachette is out? Yes. The

743
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 1: weekly lineups and the injuries being announced on Tuesday is

744
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: one of the worst parts of this game we play.

745
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: Another one of the worst parts is injuries and setbacks.

746
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 1: Anthony Santon Dare his back has tightened up while he's

747
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 1: been taking a lot of swings, which is pretty much

748
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 1: all we need him to do. When he comes back

749
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 1: is take swings, so no good rehab assignment will be

750
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: delayed by a few more days. If you're still holding

751
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 1: on for Santon dare, I think you can probably move

752
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: on at this point. It's been a terrible, terrible season.

753
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: Are you holding him anywhere, Bubba? Or would you continue

754
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 1: to now?

755
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 3: I got rid of him a long time ago. It's

756
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 3: a lost cause right about this.

757
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 1: Point, I think it is too. Joe Adell, this one

758
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 1: is kind of scary with scratch on Tuesday as he

759
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 1: battles Vertigo. He was initially listed in before being removed

760
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: from the starting lineup. How concerned are you about this?

761
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 1: This is something that we don't see this every day,

762
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 1: so I don't know if we really even know how

763
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: to evaluate this other than just like listen to what

764
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: the doctors tell us. But what are your first thoughts here?

765
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 2: Well, he left Sunday's game nauseus, was out Monday with vertigo.

766
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 2: Tuesday was a late scratch, so you almost thought he

767
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 2: could play. It's one of those like it feels like

768
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 2: Percy Harvin Migraine situations all over again, where it feels

769
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 2: like he might be ready any day, but we don't know.

770
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 2: To your point, like there's really nothing he can do there.

771
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 2: He has to wake up. It's it's not a concussion,

772
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 2: but you're gonna treaty like a concussion in theory, like

773
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 2: you don't know how to approach it at all.

774
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: A lot of comments here, one member of the chat saying,

775
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: my mom had vertigo for years. Basically, it's like you're

776
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: a spinny drunk on a normal day. So that's no good.

777
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 1: And considering where the angels are, maybe they just say,

778
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 1: you know what, You've had a great season. Maybe we

779
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: don't need to push it this year, come back healthy

780
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six. We don't have that news yet,

781
00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 1: but I wouldn't be shocked at all if that were

782
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: the case. Luis Garcia on this one stinks. Brian and

783
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 1: I were talking about him on Monday. We were both

784
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 1: really interested in to pick up for the two Star week.

785
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 1: Had to leave in the second inning with I think

786
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 1: it was elbow tightness or an elbow strain of some kind.

787
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 1: He called for the trainer right away. Velosi was down.

788
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 1: There's only a second start back from Tommy John surgery.

789
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,480
Speaker 1: I'd be pretty surprised we see Luis Garcia again anytime soon.

790
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: But if you picked him up, Are you just dropping him?

791
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, like you obviously get to the weekend hopefully, unless

792
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 2: you're in a daily league. If you're a daily legue,

793
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,760
Speaker 2: drop him. He's gone. Like, I'd be beyond shocked if

794
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 2: we see him on the mound again. The way he acted,

795
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 2: the velocity was down. After the game, Garcia and the

796
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 2: Astros said they did not want to discuss the injury

797
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,640
Speaker 2: until more results from testing came back.

798
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 3: That says a lot to me right about there.

799
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 2: So I would be beyond shocked if he pitches another

800
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 2: inning this season.

801
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, you really feel for them, Like, I know we

802
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,080
Speaker 1: focus on the fantasy side, but just on the human

803
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: side of things. You come back after a long, long

804
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 1: layoff your second start, You look good in your first

805
00:33:56,520 --> 00:34:00,120
Speaker 1: start too, and then it looks pretty dark again. This

806
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 1: is also one that tugs at the hard strings a

807
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,719
Speaker 1: little bit. Frankie Montas is going to undergo Tommy John surgery.

808
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: You never like to see that. Sending our best to

809
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 1: Frankie and Lordus Curiel Junior as well. Always been a

810
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,280
Speaker 1: big fan of Guriel. He will undergo an ACL surgery

811
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 1: tomorrow that is expected to take nine to ten months

812
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 1: to recover. From so if you were thinking about using

813
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,800
Speaker 1: him as a keeper or thinking about drafting him in

814
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 1: the early parts of the offseason, it probably doesn't make

815
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 1: any sense. I don't know that he'll be drafted in

816
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 1: any redraft leagues other than the draft and hold four

817
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,879
Speaker 1: match to fifty round type of deals. Bubba heading into

818
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,279
Speaker 1: next year ten months from now, you're looking at the

819
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 1: middle of next season. Unfortunately for lordis Guriel. Michael Waka

820
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,840
Speaker 1: as well, this one stinks. Was placed in the concussion

821
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 1: il after suffering an off field injury. I didn't actually

822
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 1: see what the heck happened, but he's gonna miss as

823
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: start against the Guardians this week, which sucks the Guardians.

824
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: I know they had a good game on was it

825
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,319
Speaker 1: Monday or Tuesday? And you know they can go off

826
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 1: here and there, but they've been a bad offense. I

827
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 1: started Waka everywhere for that one. So it's unfortunate. I mean,

828
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 1: at this time year with a concussion, would you just

829
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: drop Michael Waka? Would you hold on hoping that he

830
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:04,719
Speaker 1: can make a couple more starts for you?

831
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:06,280
Speaker 3: They're fighting.

832
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 2: They're fighting still in Kansas City, so you're hoping for

833
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,399
Speaker 2: at least one, maybe two more starts. It's just really

834
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 2: weird because they said it's off the field. They haven't

835
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 2: said what it is, so it could be something super minor,

836
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,760
Speaker 2: like he hit his head on a cabinet or something

837
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 2: and he just needs a break, or who knows, Like

838
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 2: it's could be pretty bad. So it's a very weird

839
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 2: situation that I'd hold if you can, because again, the

840
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 2: replacements not great.

841
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:34,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, especially if you're talking like a fifteen teamer. You're

842
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 1: not finding many goodies out there on the waiver wire

843
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,720
Speaker 1: now in terms of who he might face. After Cleveland,

844
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 1: it's Philly, and then it's Seattle, and then it's Toronto

845
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 1: and then it's at the Angel. So yeah, it's an

846
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 1: all right schedule. You're probably not finding anything good. But

847
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,240
Speaker 1: if you do find something good on the waiver wire,

848
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 1: I wouldn't hesitate there should I drop digs for a

849
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: QB Jesus a football question?

850
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 3: They got you?

851
00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 1: You got me? I was about to be like, oh

852
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 1: you got you. Guys got me. We'll be doing we

853
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: have football streams here. I'm not sure if we have

854
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 1: a graphic of the football schedule, but we're doing football

855
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: stuff here pretty much every single day on Twitch on YouTube,

856
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 1: the podcast feed. It's probably two football podcasts coming out

857
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 1: every single day, so you can get you football questions answered.

858
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 1: But this is baseball time. Let's we're Bubba and I

859
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,400
Speaker 1: talk baseball and we are going to continue to do

860
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: so for the next few minutes with our best bets

861
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 1: of the day. Bubba, you got some hits, runs and

862
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,239
Speaker 1: RBIs and it looks like some juicy plus money for

863
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 1: the people today. So let's hear it. We're going big.

864
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:33,399
Speaker 1: We're going big.

865
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 2: Trevor Story over three hits runs RBI's he's in that

866
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:40,280
Speaker 2: bandbox in Sacramento going up against the youngster that's getting

867
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 2: shelled as last few starts. I'll take my chances there.

868
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 2: Josh Bell has been rejuvenated the last few weeks, is

869
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:47,839
Speaker 2: the nicest way I can say it. He's a home

870
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 2: run machine. He's a sacked five machine, which is an

871
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 2: RBI for those keeping checking home. He over three hits,

872
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 2: runs and RBIs plus one seventy as he takes on

873
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 2: Uri Perez and then Kyle Schwarber. Is supposed to be

874
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,440
Speaker 2: over three friends of our guys vitover two for this kudos,

875
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:04,640
Speaker 2: but over three hits friends and RBIs for the Shore

876
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:08,480
Speaker 2: bombs at plus one fifty five, another phenomenal matchup. Did

877
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 2: they get to face this guy named Clay Holmes, who

878
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 2: should not be starting in a major league team right now,

879
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 2: should be in the bullpen at best. So short Bomb

880
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 2: hit career home run number fifty on Tuesday, the second

881
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 2: Philly to ever do it in thirty fourth player in baseball.

882
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 2: He might ghit fifty one tonight. I think I'm just

883
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 2: just a hunch.

884
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe that's a little bit of a sign of

885
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:30,280
Speaker 1: things to come for the next segment of the show.

886
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,439
Speaker 1: But for me for the bets today, and by the way,

887
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:34,360
Speaker 1: we got a couple of first time chatters and the

888
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 1: new followers. Marisam just followed mass Cheeze had just followed

889
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: first time chattered like, you guys are doing us off,

890
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,319
Speaker 1: doing us well here on our final Twitch show of

891
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 1: the year. So I do appreciate all of the chatter.

892
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 1: My bets for the day Baltimore and Pittsburgh under seven

893
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 1: and a half. Paul Skeins versus the aforementioned Tyler Wells.

894
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:55,319
Speaker 1: I really like Tyler Wells. Obviously, Skeins you don't need

895
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,959
Speaker 1: to talk about He's brilliant. But Tyler Wells has also

896
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: been fantastic for the last years when he's been healthy.

897
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 1: When Tyler Wells has been out there and healthy, he's

898
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 1: done very good things against Pittsburgh. I like it a lot.

899
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:09,280
Speaker 1: Jose Burrios, this guy's thinks. I'm sorry, he's no good anymore.

900
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 1: If you still have him on your teams, other than

901
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 1: maybe if it's like a fifteen teamer, I think you

902
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 1: should drop him. Tens and twelves no good. That's why

903
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 1: the strikeout line is set at three and a half.

904
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:20,839
Speaker 1: Under might be a little bit cheeky. He did have

905
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 1: eight a few times out a few starts to go

906
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 1: against I believe it was the Marlins, But most of

907
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:26,840
Speaker 1: the time right now Burrios is giving you two or

908
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,000
Speaker 1: three strikeouts. So under three and a half at plus money,

909
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 1: I like it a lot. And then Freddy Perolta here,

910
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 1: this is an ALT line because it was set at

911
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,240
Speaker 1: five and a half. He's taking on the Rangers tonight.

912
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: Freddy Pearl has been racking up the case, so taking

913
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:38,880
Speaker 1: the alt up to seven strikeouts where you can get

914
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: it at plus one point forty. So make sure you

915
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 1: guys are checking that out. It makes you guys are

916
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,439
Speaker 1: checking out the prop bet cheat sheet. This is where

917
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:45,959
Speaker 1: you know if you're going through a couple of hard

918
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 1: days on the bets and you can't figure out anything,

919

Speaker 1: today at bettingpros dot com slash MLB props. Could someone

926
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,200
Speaker 1: explain the fall of Barrios. I don't know he's He's okay,

927
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 1: He's just he's having a he's having a rough, rough

928
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 1: go of it. I don't know that he is as

929
00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: good as maybe was advertised. He's I don't know, honestly,

930
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 1: I honestly don't know how to break it down, because

931
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 1: there are time when Jose Brios looks really good, but

932
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: by and large he looks pretty terrible. So Ye and

933
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 1: leezing Mets have the fourth worst record since June thirteenth,

934
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 1: but that's not because of their bats. Their bats have

935
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: been by and large excellence for the last for the

936
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,320
Speaker 1: last couple of months, Seth, I kind of pulled the

937
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:36,920
Speaker 1: rug out from end you there, my friend. I'm really sorry.

938
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 1: Let's throw the home run board back up there and

939
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,279
Speaker 1: take a look here. Positive Grouch fifty eight is at

940
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 1: the top, Bees at fifty, Bees eighty seven with fifty seven,

941
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,360
Speaker 1: Whips is at fifty seven as well, and then George

942
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,840
Speaker 1: and the Fisher King at fifty six and fifty five respectively.

943
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 1: These have been the names we've been looking at for

944
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 1: a while. There's been some shaking and moving, and we

945
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,799
Speaker 1: are still close enough at the top there that we

946
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 1: could see some movement here over the last couple of

947
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,600
Speaker 1: weeks of the season. We got about fifteen seventeen games left,

948
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 1: so this is crunch time for sure. My home run

949
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:07,920
Speaker 1: call for tonight is going to be Alex Bragman. He's

950
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 1: going up against Barne Mason Barnett facing the Red Sox today.

951
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,759
Speaker 1: They are in Oakland. Jesus, I did it again. They

952
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 1: are in Sacramento. They're not in Oakland anymore. They are

953
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 1: in Sacramento, and I think Alex Bregman's going to hit

954
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 1: one out of the park today. Bubba, who do you

955
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 1: like for your home run call? You may have alluded

956
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: to it earlier.

957
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 2: As you mentioned foreshadowing what podcast host as guests tend

958
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 2: to do is shore bombs. We're going back to shar bombs.

959
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 2: Clay Holmes so bad, like so bad at baseball. He

960
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,279
Speaker 2: gives up home runs with the best of Him's almost

961
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,640
Speaker 2: in his name. So give me Kyle Schwarber. He's going

962
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:42,440
Speaker 2: to eat at least once. He's going to get part

963
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 2: of the fifty one home run club by the end

964
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 2: of the night.

965
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,000
Speaker 1: You know, it's pretty impressive. Only thirty four players in

966
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,319
Speaker 1: Major league history have hit fifty home runs. It's a

967
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:51,400
Speaker 1: very exclusive club.

968
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:53,359
Speaker 3: It seems so low when I heard that, but I'm like, yeah,

969
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 3: it's probably all right.

970
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 1: It's crazy, like with all the thousands and thousands of

971
00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 1: players that have played. Thirty four and I don't know

972
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 1: if that's thirty four individual players or thirty fourths.

973
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,280
Speaker 2: I think thirty four individual players. It's happened like fifty

974
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:06,879
Speaker 2: something times.

975
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:11,759
Speaker 1: They said, yeah, unbelievable. Unbelievable, man, it is very rare.

976
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 1: We had a couple of funny comments in the chat,

977
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:16,399
Speaker 1: at least saying I love my wife, but I'm being honest.

978
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 1: Junior Camanara might have better keeper value I hope she

979
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,320
Speaker 1: doesn't see this one. For your sacred you might have

980
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 1: to be fluffing up the first guy.

981
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 2: I agree, fluff up the couch pillows.

982
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:31,239
Speaker 1: Lee, you might be ahead and there. Tonight, final Twitch show,

983
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:33,360
Speaker 1: tell us your two teams that make the World Series.

984
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:36,879
Speaker 2: I was gonna save that for the final YouTube show,

985
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:37,959
Speaker 2: but I guess we'll save it for Twitch.

986
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 3: Uh do you like Homer?

987
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 1: I can't do it for Toronto. The bullpen is not

988
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: steady enough. The starters are not consistent enough either. In

989
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,920
Speaker 1: the American League, I think I think I'd go with

990
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:55,839
Speaker 1: the Astros. You know, I feel like they're still very

991
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 1: consistent as a whole. They are always around, They're still

992
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 1: having a good year. Even though are not the team

993
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 1: that they have been historically, they're still very good. I

994
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 1: think it's the Astros and the Brewers right now. As

995
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 1: much as that feels obscure, the Brewers are a complete team.

996
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,359
Speaker 1: I saw somebody say recently, like all the Brewers, they're

997
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 1: a fraudulent team. They have a great rotation, they have

998
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 1: a great pen, they have a deep lineup filled with stars.

999
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 1: I think they're the best team in baseball. I think

1000
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:20,799
Speaker 1: they're gonna go to the World Series. Who's gonna win?

1001
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that yet, but I think the Brewers

1002
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 1: are going to represent the NL.

1003
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, who I want to play in there is going

1004
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,400
Speaker 2: to tick off every TV station out there. But I

1005
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 2: got the Mariners because I agree if their rotation can

1006
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,720
Speaker 2: get it going, that's tremendous at least with Wu and Gilbert.

1007
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 2: Hopefully get one more to throw in there, and then

1008
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,600
Speaker 2: you throw in the brew Crew. I've been team brew

1009
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 2: Crew for a long time. The last few years, they

1010
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,360
Speaker 2: just haven't been able to get the pitching to go right.

1011
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:46,000
Speaker 2: Now they've got it in like depth, So I love.

1012
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 1: The Brew Crew. The pitching was so good that they

1013
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 1: had two guys who were at one point Rookie of

1014
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 1: the Year candidates Chad Patrick and Logan Henderson pitching in

1015
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 1: Triple A. This is a deep, deep, deep team. Mcguil

1016

Speaker 1: coming back will help out for sure, but this is
