1
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: Hello, everybody, Welcome into the cycle.

2
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:10,120
Speaker 2: I am Ryan Warmley, joined as always by Mike Mayer.

3
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,320
Speaker 2: We are talking all things fantasy baseball. On this segment,

4
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,239
Speaker 2: we were talking to by Lows and Sell Highs. We're

5
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 2: also going to do our waivers central heading into next week,

6
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 2: we will start what we always do with the bye

7
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 2: Low's and mayor you can go ahead and kick us

8
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 2: off here.

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 3: Sure, So I went with Roman Anthony as my BILO

10
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:33,639
Speaker 3: who I considered, can you really buy low on Roman

11
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 3: Anthony right now? Just because the sample size is so small?

12
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 3: And I based on you know, my DMS and some

13
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 3: of the comments we got on last week's episode where

14
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 3: you know, we kind of talked about Roman Anthony and

15
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 3: Pete Armstrong and Dynasty and I said it was absurd

16
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,919
Speaker 3: to move PCA ahead of Roman Anthony, and you disagreed,

17
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 3: and some people in the comments we're all, we're also

18
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 3: already ready to just move PCA up above Roman Anthety

19
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 3: and I just think slower role here a little bit.

20
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 3: This is still the best prospect in baseball.

21
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 4: We are.

22
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,839
Speaker 3: I just I wrote him up in this week's Players

23
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 3: to Trade Now by Low Sell High article on Fantasy

24
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 3: pros and I made the argument that one of the

25
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 3: main things about it is when I watch him, he

26
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 3: looks like a professional hitter. He's you know, he's having

27
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 3: some bad luck, he's babbab is still one thirty eight

28
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 3: right now, but he just looks like he takes professional

29
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 3: at bats, even against lefties. And the Red Sox are

30
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 3: showing that they agree because Alex Korra, who has been

31
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 3: asked all year about like, you know, why are you

32
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 3: not playing Marcela Meyer against lefties or what you know,

33
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 3: why are you trying kind of like protecting these kids

34
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 3: against left you know, these left handed hitters against lefties,

35
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 3: he's batting Roman Anthony high in the lineup, and you know,

36
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 3: even in lefties against lefties, he's batting him second in

37
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 3: the lineup. And despite some of the early you know, struggles,

38
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 3: at least numbers wise, the Red Sox are showing a

39
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 3: lot of faith in him, and I think they're justified

40
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 3: in doing so because I think he's going to get

41
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 3: hot soon. And despite you know, his what is his

42
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 3: batting average right now, It is one fourteen with the

43
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 3: two twenty seven expected batting average, but he's also walking

44
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 3: more than eighteen percent of the time. Strikeout rates twenty

45
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 3: five percent. It's not great, it's not terrible for a

46
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 3: young hitter. You know, we just talked about some young

47
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 3: hitters with a strike out rate over thirty percent, And

48
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 3: I just think we're going to see him get hot,

49
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 3: either leading into the All Star break or coming out of.

50
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 4: The second half.

51
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 3: We've again talked ad nauseum about these young hitters who

52
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 3: come up and struggle. I think I think we're seeing

53
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,399
Speaker 3: the same thing, and I think it's going to click

54
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,359
Speaker 3: for him soon and he's going to adjust to the

55
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 3: league and he's going to get hot.

56
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 2: For the record, I don't think it's knocking Roman Anthony

57
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 2: to say that pekrar Strong has earned a spot higher

58
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,959
Speaker 2: than him and Dinosaur rankings. It's not like there's a

59
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 2: huge age gap. PCA is like two years older than

60
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 2: him and he's already having a dominant season, whereas Roman

61
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 2: Anthony hasn't yet done it. Like I don't want to

62
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 2: put I put a lot of weight in general in

63
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 2: my fantasy analysis. I put a lot of stock into

64
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 2: pedigree and prospect frankings because I think they matter. It's

65
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 2: not the only thing that matters, but I think they matter.

66
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 2: But I don't want to overweight that when a guy

67
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 2: like Peek Armstrong is doing what he's doing right now.

68
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,959
Speaker 5: So that's my thought on those two in particular. But yeah,

69
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 5: I think this is a totally valid one.

70
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: I don't know how acquireable he is.

71
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 2: If somebody has been holding on to Roman Anthony, they

72
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 2: probably are having a similar optimistic view to what you have.

73
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 2: But I agree that if he is attainable, he's worth

74
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 2: buying low on. I mean, hadding one fourteen right, just

75
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 2: one home or one soule and base like he's not

76
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 2: doing anything yet, but I think you will.

77
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think he is acquiable just because of

78
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 3: some of the like the comments I'm seeing like in

79
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 3: my DMS or like on the Fantas Spros discord where

80
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 3: they're just like give me anything to Roman Anthony, or

81
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 3: like I'm willing to cut roman Antic and I'm like,

82
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 3: hold on, Like it's way too early for that, Like

83
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,839
Speaker 3: we've seen this story so many times, especially this year

84
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 3: and last year. It's way too early to panic like that,

85
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 3: Like you need to hold on and if you're going

86
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 3: to trade him, you you better get fair value because

87
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 3: if you trade to me, you know, I'm willing to,

88
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 3: then I won't ask you each name. But like the

89
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 3: the pictures I put out there that I would float

90
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 3: for Roman Anthony, it was Nick Poveda, Code Sanga, Chris Boobich,

91
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 3: Yusai Kakuchi who just had another good start. And then

92
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 3: the most interesting one is if you'd be willing, you know,

93
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 3: if probably the top name would be and Rabbit, you know,

94
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 3: if you're willing to kind of like ex sell high

95
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 3: on and Rabbit in order to builo on Roman Anthony.

96
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 2: Okay, my bylow is George Kirby, and I put this

97
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 2: together before he pitched yesterday where he only allowed one

98
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 2: and run six innings, just three strikeouts. But maybe he's

99
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 2: kind of getting starting to shake off more of that

100
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 2: rust and get back to what we expect out of him.

101
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,039
Speaker 2: So hopefully it's not too late to go after him.

102
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 2: But like I said, I did put him in here

103
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 2: when his ERA was still above six. But Kirby's just

104
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 2: always a picture that I really liked. His walk rate

105
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 2: is like double what it's been in his career, but

106
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 2: he didn't get a spring training really like obviously he's coming,

107
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 2: you know, with this injury that cost him the start

108
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 2: of the season. He's only what seven starts into this

109
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 2: twenty five year, he's one in four. He does have

110
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 2: a strikeout per inning, which is better than he's given

111
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 2: us the last two innings. That's largely driven by his

112
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 2: fourteen strikeout game that he had a few starts to go.

113
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 2: But this is a picture where the fastball velocity is

114
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 2: where it was last year. Like it looks like he's,

115
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 2: you know, reasonably healthy. I am just assuming that his

116
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 2: slow start is simply rust and he's only twenty seven

117
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 2: years old. Like I think he will be the George

118
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 2: Kirby of old very soon. And if you can acquire

119
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 2: him in a trade for somebody who doesn't I'm not

120
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 2: gonna say has lost patience, but maybe doesn't have the

121
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 2: ability to be patient because it's halfway through the season

122
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 2: and you know, maybe somebody just like they need somebody

123
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 2: who can contribute now because of where they are in

124
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 2: the standings. I would try to get George Kirby because again,

125
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 2: I think the second half he's gonna be that he's

126
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 2: gonna be that same guy right where he is the

127
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 2: era I think in the mid threes, Like he's not

128
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 2: gonna walk anybody. He's gonna have a low whip. I

129
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 2: like George Kirby a lot. The other thing worth noting,

130
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 2: just as some of his numbers, the home run to

131
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 2: fly ball rate is like sky high. His previous career

132
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 2: high is ten percent and it's currently at almost eighteen percent,

133
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 2: so that's that's obviously hurting him. His expected FIP is

134
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 2: three five seven, which is almost identical to what it

135
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 2: was a year ago. Its current FIP is four four nine,

136
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 2: So I think the numbers will come down and he's

137
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 2: going to look like his usual self going forward. So

138
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 2: a lot of times we look at like the underlying

139
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,600
Speaker 2: numbers to make this case. This is more of just

140
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 2: like the track record some of the underlying numbers, like

141
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 2: that home run rate, and just trusting that he's going

142
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 2: to shake off the rust.

143
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 3: Random was tach comparison. I just noticed while looking at

144
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 3: the stats while you're talking and kind of jumping between tabs,

145
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: is that I thought I was looking at George Kirby

146
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 3: when you were talking about his home run to fly

147
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 3: ball rate. I was actually looking at Peter Armstrong and

148
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 3: he also has an eighteen percent home run to fly already.

149
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 5: Nice.

150
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 4: I largely agree with you on Kirby.

151
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 3: I was like a little not like down on him,

152
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 3: but like probably like slightly blow Conciens is coming into

153
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 3: season just because of what you said, You're not normally

154
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 3: going to get that strikeout erinning, which is kind of

155
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 3: what like a barometer of your that you're like looking for.

156
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 3: But I think I agree with you. I think he's

157
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 3: just off to a slow start. We've seen this with

158
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 3: pitches before, like a Blake Snell last year who got

159
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 3: off to a really slow start after not really having

160
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 3: a spring training. A lot of us expected numbers are better,

161
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 3: And I think I agree. I think this is rust

162
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 3: whether or not we see it before the All Star

163
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 3: break or maybe he just kind of needs to get

164
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 3: to the All Star break kind of catch his breath,

165
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,559
Speaker 3: and then we see George Kirby in the second half.

166
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 4: You see that a lot with players.

167
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 3: It's like an unofficial like turnaround, you know, even though

168
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 3: that's not like the exact in the first half second

169
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 3: half of the year, like mid to year break.

170
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 4: Sometimes you see players.

171
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 3: Just like need to kind of like catch their breath reset,

172
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 3: and then we just see a different player on the

173
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 3: second half of Sometimes.

174
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 4: It works the other way. A player that's really hot

175
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 4: Cools off in the second half.

176
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 2: I mean, you can even just look in June, like

177
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 2: his first two starts came in May. If you take

178
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 2: those out and just look at his June stats since returning,

179
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 2: it is a three fifty four ERA, twenty eight strikeouts

180
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,239
Speaker 2: and twenty eight innings and a one to eleven whip.

181
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 2: So like more walks than you're used to with him.

182
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 2: But besides like that basically is George Kirby, if not

183
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 2: maybe even a little better than last year with the

184
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 2: strike up per inning Again, that is heavily weighted by

185
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 2: the fourteen strikeout game he had against the Angels. The

186
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 2: rest of his outings he has not had the strike

187
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 2: out numbers that you usually want to see, but he

188
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 2: like basically already is kind of getting back to what

189
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 2: we expect, and the numbers it's still early enough that

190
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 2: they're dragged down by those early starts. So I would

191
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 2: I would try to get him before he goes on

192
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 2: a tear, which I think is coming.

193
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 3: You want me to look at a couple names that

194
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 3: you would trade him for or no, sure, So he's

195
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 3: pretty high in the trade value chart, all right, let

196
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 3: me see, let me let me look for some comps here,

197
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 3: is his value was pretty high, so he's not really devaluable.

198
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 2: Well, this is what this is one that I was

199
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 2: curious what your reaction was going to be in terms of, like, oh,

200
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 2: he's not actually a by Low, or he's like at

201
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 2: least too obvious of one that people won't be willing

202
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 2: to like he's not attainable. So I was kind of

203
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: curious what your thoughts were going to be on that

204
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 2: side of things.

205
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 3: I think he's trending towards not being a by Low.

206
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,319
Speaker 3: Like it's it's probably one of those situations where the

207
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,199
Speaker 3: window's closing, and maybe it already closed in some leagues,

208
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 3: and maybe it's not closed yet another leagues.

209
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 4: But I think.

210
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 3: When you make a trade offer to someone and they

211
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 3: look down and they see George Kirby's RAS five point four,

212
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,719
Speaker 3: I think there's still opportunity to buy there, even though

213
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 3: he's pitch better of late. But I will say our

214
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 3: trade value chart still hasn't pretty value valued pretty highly,

215
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 3: and like he's in the range of Christian Yelich. Which

216
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,839
Speaker 3: would you rather have Yellich or Kirby rest this season?

217
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 5: That probably just depends on what I need.

218
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, Alex Bregman, he just got hurt. But zach Netto like,

219
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 3: these are pretty good names, so that tells you kind

220
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 3: of where he's valued on the on the trade value.

221
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 5: I think i'd rather have Bregman.

222
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know what's really to expect the

223
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 2: injury stuff with him, but if he gets back healthy,

224
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 2: I'd rather have Bregmann. But I'd rather have Kurby than that.

225
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,479
Speaker 4: O your boy, Say a Suzuki is in that range.

226
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 5: Say has crushing it man?

227
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 4: Yeah? I love Sir Lawrence Butler.

228
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 5: Yeah.

229
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 2: So he's pretty highly valued, I think is the ultimate

230
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 2: takeaway here, but maybe worth trying. But maybe he's not

231
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 2: a buyelove. And if he is not, then I apologize,

232
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 2: But you're right. The season long numbers for him so

233
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 2: far would suggest that he is. All right, let's go

234
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 2: to your cell high.

235
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 3: My cell high is Clark Schmidt, who is someone who's

236
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 3: been on a heater and if I can scroll down

237
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 3: to my notes so I don't just fly blind here.

238
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 3: So Clark Schmid is a is a picture who's been

239
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 3: really hot lately. Through twelve starts and nearly three months

240
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 3: of the full season, he's got a two point far

241
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 3: eight four ERA one point zero six whip and a

242
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 3: four and three record to go with sixty five strikeouts

243
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:53,559
Speaker 3: in sixty nine and two thirds inning, so almost a

244
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 3: strike up running. And after kind of a rough April,

245
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 3: we had some bad luck, he rebounded with a solid May,

246
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 3: and he was even better in June. And he's running

247
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 3: hot right now, making it the perfect time to sell

248
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 3: high on him. And he has a nearly identical era

249
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,439
Speaker 3: to when he posted over eighty five innings in twenty

250
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 3: twenty four four versus two point a five, and so

251
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 3: it could just be, you know, kind of his expected

252
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 3: numbers are like slightly worse than that. It could just

253
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 3: be that he's a pitcher who just routinely will outperformance

254
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 3: expected numbers. I don't think we have a large enough

255
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 3: sample size for to know that that's true or to

256
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 3: think that that's true. So I do think that regression

257
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 3: is coming, negative regression, if I want me to clarify,

258
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 3: and so I lean towards the regression coming for him.

259
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 3: I don't think he's this good. I don't think he's bad,

260
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 3: but I don't think he's this good. And I think

261
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 3: it's like again, like when you when you present a

262
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 3: player like this in a trade and you look at

263
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 3: those stats, and you look at that he pictures for

264
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 3: a good team. I think you can get a decent

265
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 3: value for him. And one of the names I flipped

266
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 3: for him is a name we mentioned in our previous video.

267
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 3: She wanted to go back and see us to talk

268
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 3: about some rookies. I posed, can you flip him for

269
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 3: Jack Hackling right now? You know, maybe that maybe that's

270
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 3: selling too high, or maybe that's aiming too high, But

271
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 3: you know, that's kind of where I would start the conversation.

272
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 3: And maybe I can if that manager is frustrated and

273
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 3: it's already gotten a few weeks of just below two

274
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 3: hundred batting average to Jack Kygileione, he's only got those

275
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,559
Speaker 3: two home runs, he could do some pitching. Maybe he's

276
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 3: willing to get out of the Jack kygli on business,

277
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 3: and I'm willing to get into the Jack kagli on business.

278
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 4: And so that's kind of where I would start.

279
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 3: And if not there, maybe I'd take a flyer on

280
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 3: a new look Maximnsey now that he's got glasses.

281
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 4: TJ.

282
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 3: Friedel, who was ironically sell high for me last week,

283
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 3: but I you know, I would sell high slash, you know,

284
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 3: on Clark to buy high on Friedel. Maybe his his

285
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 3: stackcast profile is kind of all over the places. But

286
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 3: lewis Arias he's got it really bizarre stack cast page,

287
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,959
Speaker 3: but he kind of always does. Or someone like Tommy Edmond,

288
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 3: who is kind of you know, slowing down a little bit.

289
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 4: He might be able to acquire him. For Clerksmith.

290
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,439
Speaker 5: That was a lot of turn Well he I think

291
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 5: you could get kagleon, do you think so? Well, maybe

292
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 5: I'm wrong.

293
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: I don't know.

294
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 2: I mean, I get again, the young guys struggling is

295
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 2: like a really common thing now. So if somebody again

296
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 2: we're talking redraft, of course, but somebody says like I

297
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 2: don't have the ability to wait on him to figure

298
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,439
Speaker 2: it out, and I need pitching help. I could see

299
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 2: managers saying, oh, this guy's pitching for the Yankee, so

300
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,679
Speaker 2: he's gonna get win opportunities the ras under three, Like, yeah,

301
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 2: I'll take that for I think that's doable.

302
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 3: And on the trade value but well I would I

303
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 3: don't think you are way up because that's one of

304
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 3: the reasons I picked him is that on the trade

305
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 3: value chart they are within that same range, you know,

306
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 3: and sometimes it takes you know, rookies a little bit

307
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 3: longer to kind of a grocer fall, but you know

308
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 3: where they are right now on the trade value chart,

309
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 3: they're pretty pretty even, all right.

310
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 2: My favorite sell high is Byron Buxton, who has been

311
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,199
Speaker 2: like kind of like, is it fair to say he's

312
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 2: been sneaky awesome this year. I mean he's been on

313
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 2: a heater as of late, which is which is really helped.

314
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 2: But he's been insanely good. And it's a lot of

315
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 2: red on the stat cast that there's there's some blue

316
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 2: there too. There's not a lot of middle ground. It's

317
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 2: pretty much every category it's either very red or very blue.

318
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 2: You know, still has a pretty high wiff rate, strike

319
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 2: cut rates of twenty seven percent, but he's hitting the

320
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 2: ball really hard. His hard hit rate is over fifty

321
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 2: percent and he's got seventeen home runs and thirteen stolen bases.

322
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 2: Batting average is two seventy nine. Expected batting average is lower,

323
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 2: but it's still over two fifty. This is like, I

324
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 2: can kind of keep this really simple. It is strictly

325
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 2: a this guy's never healthy, and if he's on this

326
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 2: much of a heater, I would try and sell high

327
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 2: while you can and get somebody back that you're a

328
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 2: little more secure with, because you know, players don't tend

329
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 2: to get healthier as they get older, and he's into

330
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 2: his thirties now and obviously has a very long history

331
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 2: of not playing full seasons. In fact, since twenty seventeen,

332
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 2: he has played one hundred games in a season once.

333
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 2: It was last year, and he only played one hundred

334
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 2: and two games last season. He has not had four

335
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 2: hundred plate appearances in his season since twenty seventeen, So, like,

336
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 2: we know what the history is with this guy. He's

337
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 2: playing so well right now, basically leading off every game

338
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 2: with the homer that I think you should sell high

339
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 2: while you can.

340
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, exclamation point co sign. I don't have a ton

341
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 3: to add there, completely agree. I you know, he's kind

342
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 3: of one of those talents that we were just robbed

343
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 3: of because if he stays healthy for his entire career,

344
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 3: like we're talking about a Hall of Famer here, because

345
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 3: he's that good and can be that good when he

346
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 3: is healthy. He's just never healthy. And then we've also

347
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 3: seen him be kind of bad when he's healthy, but

348
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 3: he's also he's so he's been so injured and so

349
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 3: banged up throughout his career, Like it's impossible to know,

350
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 3: like when was he like banged up when he put

351
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 3: up those like poor numbers and just like leading into

352
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 3: an injury kind of a thing. But you're always going

353
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 3: to get that power speed.

354
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 2: I will say, despite the fact that I'm saying you

355
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 2: should sell high, I think his rest of season right now,

356
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 2: King's really low. Like I'm very surprised by it. Overall,

357
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty seconds. I think he's he's thirty

358
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 2: fourth among outfielders in our consensus rest of season rankings.

359
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 2: Like when healthy, he's going to far outperform that, and

360
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 2: when not healthy, he's going to obviously be useless. So

361
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 2: like I would have him higher honestly than Like, right

362
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 2: right now in the overall rankings, he's one spot behind

363
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 2: Anthony Santander.

364
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 5: Like that to me just feels like that is a mistake.

365
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 3: All injury, it's all people worried about the injury.

366
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Santander is hurt and has been garbage this year,

367
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 2: So I like that. I mean, he's just the first

368
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 2: name that I saw.

369
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 4: But what's this consensus outfield ranking.

370
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 5: I think it's thirty four.

371
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 4: Oh, I haven't below that.

372
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 5: I was just looking at it.

373
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 4: What's that I have him below that I haven't had

374
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 4: forty three.

375
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 5: See, I think that's great.

376
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 2: Dude is thirty combined home runs and steels halfway through

377
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 2: the season and is playing well.

378
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 3: I don't have him above Santander, who I have at

379
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 3: fifty two.

380
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's more fair. Where do you You said

381
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 2: you have forty three?

382
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,120
Speaker 5: Yeah? I mean he's really good.

383
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 3: He's behind Michael Christia, Randi, Rosarana, Riley Green, Jason de Mingez.

384
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,239
Speaker 3: Maybe I should broke Jason ming Is down below him.

385
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, he should higher than Jason de Mingus in my opinion,

386
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:17,400
Speaker 5: I'll move him right now.

387
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 3: But it's all it's all like injury, because it's like, sure,

388
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 3: buying Buckson is better than him, but like, what if

389
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:24,679
Speaker 3: he's not here in August?

390
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 2: Would you rather have for the rest of this season

391
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 2: Mike Trout or Byron Bucks Mike Trout. I mean they're

392
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 2: equally likely to get hurt, right.

393
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I have a lot invested in Mike Trout,

394
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 4: so I need him to be better.

395
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 5: So you're digging in your heels.

396
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 4: Yeah.

397
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 3: I took a firm stance before the season, and gosh

398
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 3: darn it, I'm going to go down with the ship.

399
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 2: I mean, Buckson has been like much better this year,

400
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,360
Speaker 2: and both have injury concerns, so like I would rather

401
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 2: have Buckson than Trout.

402
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 4: And Buckson is still running while Trout is not running much.

403
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 2: So yeah, Buckson is when he hasn't been in the

404
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 2: last few years. But I mean this is his most

405
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 2: stolen bases he's had in a season since twenty nineteen,

406
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 2: and he's only one behind that number, So he's like

407
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 2: two stolen bases away from his second most in his career.

408
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's wilds down.

409
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,080

417
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 2: often write down like where these guys are available? Sometimes

418
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 2: I think I tend to go for the guys are

419
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 2: who are much lower and it's like the kind of

420
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 2: the deeper league, like something where your guys tend to

421
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 2: be a little bit more rostered. This is an example

422
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 2: where rather than writing down the percentages he is available

423
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 2: everywhere there are I think it's like three percent rostered

424
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 2: on fan tracks, one percent on Yahoo, one percent is

425
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 2: like he is availab pretty much anywhere. I'm not saying

426
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 2: this is this guy's gonna be a league winner for

427
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,120
Speaker 2: you the rest of the year or anything like that,

428
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 2: but he is on a hot streak. The stack cast

429
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 2: data is not he hasn't had enough at bats to

430
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 2: kind of qualify for stuff, but it's pretty red. Is

431
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 2: expected batting average to ninety two. Expected slugging it was

432
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 2: over five hundred. His average exitvelocity is ninety two miles

433
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 2: per hour. And what really stands out to me is

434
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 2: his max ex velocity, which does kind of like reflect

435
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 2: how well you're hitting pretty early on, it's one hundred

436
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 2: and fifteen point nine miles per hour. That's top three

437
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 2: percent in baseball, so impacting the ball like very hard.

438
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 2: His strikeout rate is twelve point eight percent. Last year

439
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 2: it was twenty eight point two percent. Again, these are

440
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 2: in somewhat smaller sample sizes. He only h had under

441
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 2: two hundred play appearances last year. He has under fifty

442
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 2: this year. Still, that's a pretty steep drop off. Walkerates

443
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 2: a little lower, but the striker being that low is

444
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 2: you know, kind of makes me raise my eyebrows. This

445
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 2: is one where I kind of just want to pick

446
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 2: him up and ride the hot streak and he becomes

447
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 2: a very droppable guy if he starts to fall off.

448
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 5: But for the time.

449
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 2: Being, if you need somebody who's on a bit of

450
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 2: a power hot streak that maybe he maintains it longer

451
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 2: than you expect, but if he doesn't, he becomes a

452
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 2: droppable piece. I like having that kind of player on

453
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 2: my team, honestly, So that's why he is my pick,

454
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 2: despite the fact that he is at HEA's twelve percent

455
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 2: roster on a fan tracks, so that's going up. But yeah,

456
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 2: what do you think of Canzone.

457
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,439
Speaker 3: I think he's probably more of a deeply target for me,

458
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 3: just because I don't know if there's a very high

459
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 3: ceiling there. But yeah, I was trying to look at

460
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 3: some of his like minor league stat members to see

461
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 3: like because of the strike out Nomber is so low

462
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:05,879
Speaker 3: despite being higher last year, and he's kind of bounced

463
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,879
Speaker 3: around so much, but whether it's like between teams or

464
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 3: between like levels, it's almost kind of hard to like

465
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 3: pinpoint what his two strikeout number is like supposed to

466
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 3: be because it's like it's like twenty five games here,

467
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 3: twenty one games here, forty four games here, thirty five

468
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,959
Speaker 3: games here, and it's like it's twelve percent strikeout, seventeen

469
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 3: percent fourteen, twenty two, nineteen, twenty thirty three, So it's

470
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 3: kind of all over the place. It's we might just

471
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 3: not know what his strikeout rate is supposed to be

472
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:28,400
Speaker 3: because a lot of times you can.

473
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,719
Speaker 2: We've had over he's had over twenty five at bats

474
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 2: since his last strikeout.

475
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:33,119
Speaker 4: That's pretty corazy.

476
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:34,879
Speaker 5: His last strikeout was June fourteenth.

477
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:36,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, and he usually walks more.

478
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 3: According to some of these sample sizes, you know, in

479
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 3: like Triple you know, like in seventy one.

480
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 4: Games in twenty twenty three Triple A, he.

481
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 3: Walked him with thirteen percent of the time. His his

482
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 3: walker was toow point eight and his strike card was

483
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,719
Speaker 3: third thirteen point two, so almost identical walk to strikeout rates.

484
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 3: He's got a little bit of power, like a little

485
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 3: bit of speed, but like not a ton of both.

486
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 3: So the ceiling probably isn't really high there, which is

487
00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,439
Speaker 3: what I kind of like consider with some of these things.

488
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,200
Speaker 3: But so I think it's either like a deep league

489
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 3: target or like you said, a streamer of like if

490
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,199
Speaker 3: you just need a warm body who's like, you know,

491
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:09,679
Speaker 3: going to produce in the short term for you, but

492
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 3: not a long term answer.

493
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 4: I would say no.

494
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,199
Speaker 5: And I'm not trying to paint the case that he is.

495
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 5: All Right, who's your favorite here?

496
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 3: So mine is, uh, someone we've we've talked about a

497
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 3: lot on the show that we both really like is

498
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 3: Chandler Simpson, who got called up. And the reason I

499
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 3: included him here is because he was called up like

500
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 3: earlier this week and in a lot of leagues you

501
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 3: may like missed a window to pick him up because

502
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 3: it was like after like lineups locked. I know there

503
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 3: were a couple leagues where I was able to, like

504
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 3: if I was stashing him and I was able to

505
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 3: like sneak him in before you know, like.

506
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 4: That position locked.

507
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 3: But he's still only thirty one percent roster around Yahoo,

508
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 3: and so he's still widely available everywhere. He's only eleven

509
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 3: percent ROSTERU on ESPN. And one of the reasons I

510
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 3: stashed him in in a couple of leagues is because

511
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 3: he's like a stolen base cheed code. He's the kind

512
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 3: of guy where if you're struggling, especially in like a

513
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,680
Speaker 3: rot league, if you're struggling at stolen base, he's good

514
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,119
Speaker 3: for like four or five spots in the standings just

515
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 3: by himself. Just he'll he'll just pull, you know, assuming

516
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 3: the Rays keep him up and he runs the way

517
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 3: he can. He's he's a category changer, and he will

518
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 3: almost carry that.

519
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 4: Category on his own.

520
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 3: And you know there are very few players who can

521
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 3: do that with one category. For you, He's not going

522
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 3: to offer much power, but he's showed he's gonna he

523
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 3: can have a really good average. He's going to score

524
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 3: some runs and steal some bases and uh, you know,

525
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 3: especially the stile bases alone.

526
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:32,880
Speaker 4: You know, he's a game changer for especially in ROTO.

527
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 2: Like totally agree, I was stashing him everywhere I could

528
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 2: for the exact reasons you laid out. So if he's

529
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 2: available anywhere because of him getting dropped from the surprise

530
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 2: send down, like pick him up. I want to start

531
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 2: him in every categories league that I can, because he,

532
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 2: like you said, he'll single handedly get you to competitive

533
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 2: and steals if not winning steals for you.

534
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, the bonus I had there is Austin Hayes, who's

535
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 3: working his baby way back from an injury, has been

536
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:00,959
Speaker 3: really productive this year and was dropped in a lot

537
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 3: of places because he's just been like, I don't off

538
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 3: the injured.

539
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 4: List if I look at his roster, right.

540
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,640
Speaker 3: I looked it up before and I almost didn't include

541
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 3: him because I thought it's roster I was going to

542
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 3: be too high. Eighteen percent on Yahoo, so he's still

543
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 3: widely available, only twelve percent in ESPN. So if you

544
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 3: need an outfielder who's capable of producing for you, Austin

545
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 3: Hayes is available in a lot of places, so I

546
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 3: would pick him up for sure.

547
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 2: Two pictures that I'm going to give you, I considered

548
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 2: both Orioles, guys who have been kind of pitching well,

549
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,360
Speaker 2: as of late Trevor Rodgers, who ended up not being

550
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 2: my main choice. But I just wanted to shout him

551
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 2: out because he's made three starts since getting called back up,

552
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 2: and two of them he's been like really awesome. He

553
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 2: legitimately shoved and the velocity is up for him. I

554
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 2: didn't actually write down what it was, so I'm gonna

555
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 2: pull it up while i'm talking here, But the fastball

556
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 2: velocity was looking much better than it had been previously

557
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 2: in the last Yeah, it's up two miles per hour

558
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 2: over last year, and that just gets it to ninety

559
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 2: three point seven. But in the last game it was

560
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 2: like he was like sitting ninety five, like touching ninety six.

561
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,880
Speaker 5: So whatever the Oils did.

562
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 2: At least three starts in appears to be working pretty well,

563
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 2: even with one bad start in that mix. He's got

564
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 2: a one sixty two ERA, thirteen strikeouts in sixteen and

565
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 2: two thirds innings, a zero point seven to eight whips,

566
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 2: So I.

567
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: Don't know how it's gonna last. But this is somebody they.

568
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,160
Speaker 2: Went out and traded for last year, giving up two

569
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 2: like reasonable prospects and Kyle Stowers and Connor Norby.

570
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 5: So and he's only twenty seven.

571
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:33,360
Speaker 2: He's had a good year in the past, even though

572
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 2: it was like four years ago, so I'd be interested

573
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 2: in him. But then the other the Orols picture that

574
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,399
Speaker 2: I really with is Charlie Morton, who's thirty six percent

575
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 2: roster on Yah who thirteen percent ESPN forty seven percent

576
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:48,879
Speaker 2: on CBS, And like, his season long stats are going

577
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 2: to look terrible because he was so bad, I thought

578
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 2: he should retire after April. Like he he could not

579
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 2: have been worse in the first month of the season.

580
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,120
Speaker 2: In fact, the first six starts he made he got

581
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 2: the loss he gave up at least I think it

582
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 2: was four earned runs in each one of those.

583
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 5: Like he was, he was horrific.

584
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 2: They they kind of gave him a reset, put him

585
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 2: in the bullpen for a few games in mid May,

586
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:18,160
Speaker 2: they brought him back to the starting rotation, and he's

587
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 2: been really good since then. What he didn't have in

588
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,919
Speaker 2: April was the use of his curve ball, which is

589
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 2: his like, you know, his main best pitch, and it

590
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 2: was not working for him in April for whatever reason.

591
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 2: This guy's in his forties, Like sometimes you just lose it.

592
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 2: It's been working for him since coming back since May

593
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 2: twenty sixth. These are his outings six innings, two earned runs,

594
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 2: five strikeouts, seven and two thirds innings, no earned runs,

595
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 2: seven strikeouts, one bad start in there, two and a

596
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,679
Speaker 2: third innings, four earned runs, five strikeouts, five innings, no

597
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 2: earned runs, ten strikeouts, six innings, one earned runs, seven strikeouts,

598
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 2: and then five innings, three earned runs, three strikeouts. So

599
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 2: even in the games that are now bad for him,

600
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 2: there are not disastrous, going to ruin your weak type

601
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 2: of bad. Like we saw against the Rangers. He wasn't

602
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 2: his best attic, but it was still three and run

603
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 2: in five innings. Like, if that's your your floor at picture,

604
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 2: with what he's given you as a ceiling last month,

605
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 2: I think that's pretty good. I'm not saying I'm gonna

606
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:16,960
Speaker 2: hold on him the rest of the season, but I

607
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 2: want to be picking him up. I want to at

608
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,119
Speaker 2: least have him rostered in case like this turnaround is

609
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 2: legitimate and he's something close to Charlie Morton of old

610
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 2: moving forward, because that's basically what he's been the last

611
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 2: you know, five six weeks.

612
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of hard to get that floor out

613
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 3: of your mouth when you've seen like what he can be. Also,

614
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 3: what do you how many more stars do you think

615
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 3: he makes for the LS before he gets traded.

616
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 2: I don't know if he does end up getting traded,

617
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 2: though he's likely going to a better team and more

618
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:53,719
Speaker 2: opportunity for wins, so it's a reasonable question he in

619
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 2: the oh. I was looking at this the other day

620
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 2: and now I don't have it up in front of me.

621
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 2: I was looking at just kind of where he ranks

622
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 2: amongst all pitchers since mid May. I think I put

623
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 2: the number at like May eighteenth or something, and he

624
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:11,640
Speaker 2: is like, he's been very, very good.

625
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 5: Like it's not just that he's improved.

626
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:15,880
Speaker 2: From the point I'm trying to make is that it's

627
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 2: not just that he's improved from where he was in April.

628
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 2: He's been one of the better pitchers in fantasy baseball.

629
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,639
Speaker 2: Not the best, but one of the better pictures in

630
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 2: fantasy baseball for over a month at this point.

631
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, for me, the only thing I would like would

632
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 3: be hard for me to forget is like, is you

633
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 3: know we've seen what like the bad bad can be

634
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 3: from Charlie Morton, and like when you pick him up

635
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 3: and you're starting him, like I would always be wondering, like,

636
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 3: please don't let this be the Niner and run start,

637
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 3: Please don't let this be the Niner and run stars.

638
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 2: And then Rogers say I'd pick him up and like

639
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 2: auto start him, but like I would just want to

640
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 2: get him on the roster.

641
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then Trevor Rodgers first off, bad trade, Like

642
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 3: I didn't understand that trade at the time. I don't

643
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 3: get it now at least he's finally starting to pitch good.

644
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 3: I wrote a pitch well, sorry bad English, but I

645
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 3: remember being like liking Trevor Rodgers in Dynasty five years

646
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 3: ago and then just wondering kind of what happened, because

647
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 3: he came you know, twenty twenty one, one hundred and

648
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 3: fifty seven strikeouts and one hundred and thirty three innings

649
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 3: like mid twos CRA and you were like, all right,

650
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 3: like this guy might be something. And then he came

651
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 3: out the next year and he just dunk five point

652
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 3: four to seven ERA. And then even when he kind

653
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 3: of came back worked his way back from some injuries

654
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 3: and was back in twenty twenty four, it was almost

655
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 3: five YRA, and he wasn't like, you know, we saw

656
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty seven strikeouts and one hundred and thirty three innings.

657
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 3: Now he wasn't even striking out a bat or perinning.

658
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 3: It was ninety seven strikeouts and one hundred and twenty four innings.

659
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 3: So I hope for his sake he is really back

660
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 3: and is like turning into the you know, the pitcher

661
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 3: who you know, this guy's a former first round pick,

662
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 3: Like he's not just a crumb that they pulled out

663
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 3: of nowhere. You know, he does have some some pedigree

664
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 3: that people saw coming up, and so for his sake,

665
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 3: I hope he figured it out. It's a really small

666
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 3: sample size, though, it's kind of hard to know what

667
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 3: we're looking at here.

668
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 5: All right, run me through your favorite pitture.

669
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 3: So my favorite picture is Jacob Lopez, who just kind

670
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 3: of he kind of did come out of nowhere, maybe

671
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 3: not necessarily, but kind of kind of came out of nowhere.

672
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 3: And he's just been continued continuing to pitch really well.

673
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 3: Mid three is era fifty five strikeouts and forty three innings.

674
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 3: He's just been pitching even better of late. You know,

675
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 3: he just against the Tigers, you know, one of the

676
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 3: better surprisingly better teams in baseball.

677
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 4: Seven shoutout in.

678
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 3: Six strikeouts, and that was his third quality start in

679
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 3: a row with he had six strikeouts in that start

680
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 3: and then his previous stew he had nine strikeouts in

681
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 3: each of those quality starts and only wonder and run

682
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 3: over those last three starts. So he's on a heater

683
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 3: right now, pitching really well. And you know, I don't

684
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 3: love that he has to pitch in that home ballpark,

685
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 3: but overall, he's someone who's like streaking running hot right now.

686
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 3: And if you can, you know, get a pitcher who's

687
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 3: doing some good things, he is one of them.

688
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 4: My bonus.

689
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 5: The other guys my boness I wrote.

690
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 3: That a few My bonus is Ema She and who

691
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 3: you talked about last week, and like you talked about

692
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 3: how you wrote up or you talked up Chase Burns

693
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 3: and then got called up. I talked up m and

694
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 3: she and it got sent down and it was no

695
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 3: fault of his own. They just like needed some bullpen help.

696
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 3: But it seems like he's gonna be coming back up soon.

697
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 3: They have some limitations and when they can pick him

698
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 3: back up just because of the rules unless there's an injury.

699
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 3: But the Dodgers need so much pitching. But I think

700
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 3: he's gonna be back up soon, and so I would

701
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 3: definitely pick him up and stash him for now because

702
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 3: I think he's gonna be back up soon and he

703
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 3: should be pitching pretty well for a really good Dodgers team.

704
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 3: And you can kind of get him for nothing now.

705
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 3: And then, first and foremost, because of the timing last week,

706
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 3: like we talked about Chandler Simpson, Chase Burns was also

707
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 3: kind of called up at an interesting time. And so

708
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 3: there are leagues like like I'm in tgfbis is n

709
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 3: f NFBC league. You couldn't pick up Chase Burns before

710
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 3: we made an appearance, And so he's available in NF

711
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 3: NFBC leagues this weekend, and he's going to go for

712
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 3: massive fab bids like four hundred dollars fat bids of

713
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 3: a thousand dollar budget like forty.

714
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 4: And so.

715
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 3: And you know, in our ESPN Fantasy League for work,

716
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 3: I picked up Chase Burns today because it's a daily

717
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 3: roster league and it's like really small rosters. I know

718
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,479
Speaker 3: when to picked him up yet, and I had just

719
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 3: not considered, Like I'm you know, every whenever I think

720
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 3: about like a player like that, I'm like, oh, he's

721
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,239
Speaker 3: already rostered in my leagues. And I was like, let

722
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 3: me check that ESPN league. I bet he's not rostered.

723
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 3: I already wasn't, So I picked him up. I ended

724
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 3: up dropping Kevin Gosman for him. What do you think

725
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 3: about that move.

726
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 2: Bad Kevin Gosman shoved today, that's all right, eight shutout innings.

727
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 4: Nice. I think I actually got at it for that start.

728
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 5: Oh, because of when he picked him up. Then that's helpful. Yeah.

729
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 2: Now I am in this league, yes, I like that.

730
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 2: I don't know how I feel in other leagues, but

731
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 2: in this league, yes, I like that move.

732
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I'm kind of in that league.

733
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 3: For context, we we end the season this week and

734
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 3: already start like a long playoffs and then we have

735
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 3: like multiple leagues where you have to win your league

736
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 3: and then go to playoff against someone else. And I'm

737
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 3: already trying to like I'm in first place or no,

738
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 3: I'm in second place, but I'm like tied with the

739
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 3: first place person, and we're head to head this week

740
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 3: for first overall in that league. And so I'm already

741
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 3: trying to like line up my playoff roster because you

742
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 3: because of like the different rules and stuff, you're limited

743
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 3: who you can pick up. So I want to burn

744
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 3: some my roster.

745
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 2: Now I'm facing our pal fits to try and make

746
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 2: the playoffs in that league.

747
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 3: Concerns for me in that league because you know it's

748
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 3: over in July.

749
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 5: Exactly, all right, very quickly run through your deep league targets.

750
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 3: All right, So deep league targets pitchers who should be

751
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 3: pictures and hitters who should be available in most places.

752
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 3: They can help you either like short term or yeah,

753
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 3: mostly short term. I would say a couple of them

754
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 3: are more longer term, but more mostly short term. Ryan Nelson,

755
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 3: a pitcher for the Diamondbacks, has been picturing pretty well.

756
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 3: Edward Cabrera is surprisingly not rostered everywhere, and we'll talk

757
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 3: about him a little bit on the next video, and

758
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,479
Speaker 3: we talk about streaming pitchers, but he has an upcoming

759
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:07,479
Speaker 3: two start week and is pretty available. And you know,

760
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 3: someone that we've liked in the past, Colton Gordon, the

761
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 3: pitcher for the Astros, is pitching pretty well. Tyler Anderson.

762
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 3: I feel like I've mentioned him just kind of throughout

763
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 3: the year. He continues to be under rostered and continues

764
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,319
Speaker 3: to be very valuable in deep leagues, continues to pitch well.

765
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 3: He's just a savvy veteran. He doesn't have like sexy stuff,

766
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,319
Speaker 3: but he's just really good at limiting hard contact and

767
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,440
Speaker 3: continuing to put up, you know, solid numbers in deeper leagues,

768
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 3: not necessarily in like your standard league, he's not going

769
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 3: to do a whole lot for you, but like in

770
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 3: those fifteen team leagues, absolutely you need to roster Tyler Anderson.

771
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,359
Speaker 3: He's been doing really well. Connor Norby is someone I've

772
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 3: been surviving on third base in some deeper leagues just

773
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 3: you know, like a little bit power, a little bit

774
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:47,759
Speaker 3: of speed, a.
