If you're a fantas Sports Ray Network, that 0:01:01.400 --> 0:01:04.640 is Frank Stamville. I am Greg Susan. April's finally over. Frank, 0:01:04.800 --> 0:01:08.240 we made it finally. The longest month in the history 0:01:08.520 --> 0:01:11.520 of Humanity's over. I can't believe he went an entire 0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:15.920 show yesterday without saying it's going to be May about today. 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:18.840 I don't really do that. You're not into it. Like 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:21.440 I literally saw like a fake tweet from Justin timber 0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:23.880 Leg saying he effing hates this month. Was like, oh, yeah, 0:01:23.920 --> 0:01:29.200 that joke. It's It's pretty good, Grouchy Greg today, No, 0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:34.440 just busy. Greg's busy. Greg. Admittedly I wouldn't say I'm 0:01:34.440 --> 0:01:37.959 grouchy day. You're a little off. I agree very well. 0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:40.600 I agree you're you're a little You're a little high 0:01:40.600 --> 0:01:43.320 strung today. I don't know what's going on. You're a 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:46.679 little high strung today. Maybe maybe the show will you know, 0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:49.160 get it out of me, Greg, I hope so, Frankie, 0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:51.400 wake me up a little bit. Wait before it's over. 0:01:51.480 --> 0:01:52.960 I can't. I can't think of a better way to 0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:55.000 kick off May than with a nice, you know, fifty 0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:57.800 degree day here in New York City's quite cold, perfect, 0:01:58.000 --> 0:02:00.520 it's quite cool. What we wanted. I'm wearing. We get 0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:05.920 through April all the uh, all the rain cloudiness of April, 0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:08.280 and we start off May with a fifty degree day, perfect, 0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:09.680 and think of a better way to Smarrow I think 0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:12.359 supposed to be like seventy and rainy, a lot of 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:15.919 rain coming up to it. Seems like April's over. But 0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:19.240 everything that April normally brings not over. Greg, I realized 0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:22.959 the Yankees are on. Yes they are big Merrill Kelly 0:02:22.960 --> 0:02:25.640 on the MOUNTA had to start him in the league. Unfortunately, 0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:29.880 why Unfortunately there's the Yankees unfortunately, because I bench Spencer 0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:35.320 Turnbull for him Burnbull pitch pretty damn good. Left, It's 0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:38.120 two weeks in a row that Spencer Turnbull loses double start. 0:02:38.440 --> 0:02:39.840 He was supposed to have a two star week this 0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:43.480 week lost it. So I see his only starts at Philadelphia. 0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:47.560 I don't really love guys with one start at Philadelphia, 0:02:47.840 --> 0:02:49.600 so I ben Spencer Turnbull. He ends up having a 0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:56.040 great start in favor of Meryl Kelly, hoping the Yankees win, 0:02:56.240 --> 0:02:59.440 but hoping Merrill Kelly gives me quality start. Let's go 0:02:59.480 --> 0:03:01.440 with that grant. By the way, I know we're doing 0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:04.320 this before um double head checks off between the Oil 0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:06.440 and the White Sox. Trey man Cini is back in 0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:09.400 the lineup for Game one against the Chicago White Sox. 0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:12.600 Very nice, Carlos the town's home run homewer two days 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:15.200 in a row. I don't know what start fright, Well, 0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:16.920 what's what's what's your options here? What do you got? 0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:18.680 What do you got going on? I don't know. Nobody 0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:20.679 cat cares, so I'm not gonna go through it. I care, 0:03:20.760 --> 0:03:22.799 but like, well, I'm happy you brought it up. Greg. 0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:24.480 If no one cares, just being honest with you, and 0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:25.960 I don't know what it cares. Why do you even 0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:28.360 bring it up? Then? Because I care, it matters to me, 0:03:28.560 --> 0:03:30.880 so do it during the break. I'm gonna do just that. 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:32.640 I was looking at lineups for today and that got 0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:36.960 day baseball. I love Wednesdays, Greg. It's not a minute. 0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:38.920 It's been a good first two days of the week, 0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:42.720 I think, and I like to Yeah, I mean, Trevor 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:46.640 Bauer a little underwhelming last night. You know, crazy to say. 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:48.560 You still go seven innings and gives ten strikeouts, but 0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:53.680 four earned runs against the Marlins. Let's start right there, 0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:55.840 because you you played daily last night and you do 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:58.440 whatever you could, get Trevor Bauer in your lineup. How 0:03:58.480 --> 0:04:01.400 did you perform? Oh? Overall, actually performed well because that 0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:05.640 friend will raise in my line But I thought, you know, 0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:08.240 of course at one time that I put Trevor Bauer 0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:10.080 in my lineup. It's like I'm the omen for him 0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:12.000 where he gives the four earned runs against the Miami 0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:15.160 Marlins of all teams. I was watching the start, it 0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:18.400 was the second ending was just a really weird one. 0:04:19.000 --> 0:04:23.720 They get caught in like a suicide squeeze situation where um, 0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:26.120 nobody was covering third because jose Marius came in. So 0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:27.839 the guy's like halfway down the line, ends up throwing 0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:30.120 at the first that scores a run, gives up a 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:33.080 home run to Curtis Granderson. Later on an absolute moon 0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:36.160 rocket by the way to to Curtis Granderson, which eliminates 0:04:36.160 --> 0:04:39.320 the quality starts. So a little bit frustrating. And I 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:43.120 was looking at the Trevor Bauers numbers last night. He's 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:45.360 a really interesting guy. I mean, outside of the usual 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:47.279 stuff that we talked about with Trevor Bauer being an 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:50.039 interesting dude. Like, the walks are back up this year. 0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:52.760 The walks are over four per nine, Greg, which is 0:04:52.760 --> 0:04:55.640 not great. The case per nine last year was over eleven. 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:59.520 This year he's right around ten, so that's down, the 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:02.200 swinging strike rates down. I just think he's trying to 0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:05.159 do a little bit too much, Greg. He throws like 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:09.320 six different pitches, and all of these pitches have phenomenal movement, 0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:11.640 but I think half the time he can't even harness 0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:13.800 where these pitches are gonna go. Just me watching it 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:17.040 last night, he has nasty wipe out slider. It seems 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:19.960 like all of his pitches have this crazy movement, but 0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:21.839 most of the time, he can't throw them for strikes, 0:05:22.520 --> 0:05:25.159 so he's getting guys to chase his pitches, obviously, but 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:27.520 it just seems to me like Turnbauer is trying to 0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:29.280 do a little bit too much. Swinging strike rate down 0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:31.520 a little bit, oh swing is down, so they're laying 0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:34.520 off those pitches outside the strike zone and those are 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:37.680 resulting in walks, and his first pitch strike percentages down too. 0:05:37.800 --> 0:05:41.120 So I know he had the game where he left 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:42.719 with the no hitter and it was an awesome start, 0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:45.720 but overall it's been kind of a mixed bag when 0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:47.280 you look at the underlying numbers when it comes to 0:05:47.279 --> 0:05:50.800 Trevor Bauer seven eights, four hits, four runs, four walks, 0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:54.039 ten cages with the final line for Bauer over his 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:56.800 seven inies of work against the Marlins. Sandy Alkantar has 0:05:56.839 --> 0:06:00.080 also been a disappointment for Miami. Five innings, seven or 0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:02.240 getting seven hit, six runs, four of which we earned, 0:06:02.279 --> 0:06:05.039 three walk only struck out one. That's not going to 0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:07.760 get the job done. You mentioned Curtis Grandisans Moon Rocket, 0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:10.240 Carlos Santana went deep for the second day in a row. 0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:13.360 He's mad only the middle a mini slump, but his 0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:16.080 third home run there of the year. Satanna's average, which 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:17.839 is never going to be high, is down to three sixteen. 0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:20.040 The O b P, which is going to be high, 0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:25.000 is up at four thirty here on the season. Greig 0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:27.400 may interested in Carlos Gonzalez at all. Seems like he's 0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:30.720 heating up a little bit. Well, tell me about him. Well, 0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:33.960 over the past week for Carlos Gonzalez, he all right, 0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:37.960 not a great batting a seven, but he he does 0:06:38.000 --> 0:06:40.719 have two on runs for r b I s four 0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:43.480 runs scored, and he hit an absolute rocket yesterday to 0:06:43.640 --> 0:06:46.000 classic Carlos Gonzalez. I love to see it too, when 0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:48.960 when these older veteran players they still so you got 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:51.080 a little something left in the tank. He just smacks 0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:52.919 and pitch just drops the bat immediately. It was just 0:06:52.960 --> 0:06:57.200 one of those classic Carlos Gonzalez. Um Carlos Gonzalez swings. 0:06:57.240 --> 0:07:00.480 But you know over the past or games, he has 0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:02.800 two multi hit games. He he hits the big three 0:07:02.880 --> 0:07:04.720 run homer last night. He has two runs scored last 0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:07.880 night as well. Look in deeper leagues in rodo you 0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:10.920 gotta start five outfielders. Seems like these players are dropping 0:07:10.920 --> 0:07:14.320 like flies there where you need to start five ail fielders, Greg, 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:18.760 I take a shot. I take a flyer on Carlos Gonzoz. Yeah, 0:07:18.760 --> 0:07:20.840 I think the shallower than five outfielders. Probably not so 0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:25.480 I've always had the I've always really liked Carlos Gonzalez. Um. 0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:27.400 So you know, this is usually the point of the 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:29.920 week we tell about to talk about some terrible veteran 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:31.680 you want to pick up like that's that's usually where 0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:34.400 we end up on about Wednesday or something. Um like george' 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:36.960 zuerman and Whomer Bailey coming to tell me to not 0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:39.280 buy instant Carlos Gonzalza. Well, you know, but I think 0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:41.520 he did it break this time right and five outfielder leagues, 0:07:41.640 --> 0:07:44.400 Carlos Gonzalez batting the middle of the order, playing every day. 0:07:45.240 --> 0:07:47.800 I'm fine with it. I'm finally taking shanan. Carlos Gonzalez. 0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:50.080 Hamley Ramira is the fomer Indians vetterman. You take a 0:07:50.120 --> 0:07:52.920 shot on. I believe that the Indians cut him before 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:57.720 we did, so our fault I would get to Carlos Gonzala. 0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:00.560 I'm finally Carlos Gazela isn't caution anything. Oh this great. 0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:05.440 His launch angle negative three point six. It doesn't seem 0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:11.120 like that's gonna work very well for you. Probably not. Yeah, 0:08:11.160 --> 0:08:13.760 he's batting two sixty one, but his expected batting averages. 0:08:15.440 --> 0:08:20.640 There's something I want to talk about. Raised raise the 0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:22.960 launch angle a little bit, Cargo, Let's let's get some 0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:26.640 bombs here. I want to talk about Frankie, a player 0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:28.679 that three April I could not have been more wrong about. 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.040 And you told me, and you begged me in March. 0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:34.440 Don't let my biases affect anything. Don't let it affect anything. 0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:37.640 Modica more than Anybody's like, you're being an idiot, and 0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:41.440 I'm just like, no, this guy stinks. The problem is 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:45.360 he doesn't stink. And that's Louis Castillo, who last night 0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:47.800 against the mat six and two thirds, five hits, two runs, 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:50.960 He walked three, which isn't good. He struck out seven 0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:53.280 on the evening. He finishes the month of April with 0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:56.720 a one point four five e r A Jason Varius 0:08:56.760 --> 0:08:58.480 by the way, he goes five intes, three hits, one run, 0:08:58.520 --> 0:09:00.920 He also walked three and he struck out of five. 0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:05.920 That makes four starts in a row where Jason Vargas 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:08.560 did not make it through six innings, two of them 0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:11.400 he didn't make it through five, but he allowed just 0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:16.520 one run. Interesting to note and probably nothing else. Come on, great, 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:19.520 you don't want Jason Vargas feder and we can add 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:23.559 I do not Jerry's familiar. It was pushed up to 0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:28.000 full innings. It did not work out as he blows 0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:31.720 this one um in the night and he blows it 0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:34.040 really in the ninth and the Reds come back to 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:38.040 win it in the tenth. Yeah, I mean Mets come 0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:42.000 back to win it rather in the tenth. Regarding Louise Castillo, 0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:44.600 You're right, Greg, he he has been awesome. And I 0:09:44.600 --> 0:09:47.640 think part of this something that's been overlooked is the 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:52.520 fact that they poached the pitching coach from the Milwaukee Brewers, 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:54.920 Dereck Johnson, who was the pitching coach for the past 0:09:55.000 --> 0:09:58.440 three years. It's clearly working because we're getting some bounceback 0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:00.960 performances here from Luis cast the year from Sonny Gray. 0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:03.240 Sonny Gray has been awesome to start the season as well. 0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:06.720 If you if you watch Louise Castillo pitch, it seems 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:11.280 like he's learning how to pitch now. He's kind of 0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:14.960 pitching backwards. He knows that his fastball is not his 0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.360 best pitch. In fact, it's probably his worst pitch. That 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:20.240 was something we highlighted multiple times while talking about Louise 0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:22.680 Castio before the season with Matt Modica. He has a 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:25.080 really really bad fastball. Yes, he throws it really hard 0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:29.079 miles per hour, but a lot of times it's straight 0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:31.199 as an arrow and it gets hit hard. So I 0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:33.760 think he's learning how to pitch backwards and using his 0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:36.640 changeup to kind of establish the strike zone and using 0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:38.800 that slider a little bit more. The changeup has been 0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:43.040 absolutely deadly this season, and he's he's throwing it more frankly, 0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:46.400 and his hard hit rate is down significantly. The biggest 0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:49.600 difference greg between Louise Castio last year and this year. 0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:52.600 He's only allowed to home runs this season. Last year 0:10:52.840 --> 0:10:55.440 he allowed twenty eight home runs. That was a huge 0:10:55.840 --> 0:10:58.719 issue for him. Now, once the weather starts to heat 0:10:58.840 --> 0:11:01.840 up and he has more stars in the Great American 0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:04.600 small park and he's going up against the Brewers and 0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:08.200 the Cubs and the Cardinals, those home run numbers jump up. 0:11:09.920 --> 0:11:12.319 I do have a tad bit concerned. Look, he's not 0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:14.840 gonna pitch you an ear under two for the entire season, 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:17.840 but can he be the picture we all, well, not 0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:20.800 all because you didn't think he could be this, but um, 0:11:20.960 --> 0:11:23.280 can he be the picture that pitches to a load 0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:25.560 of mid three's e r a with over a strikeout 0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:28.439 for Enning and in a whip that doesn't kill you. 0:11:28.960 --> 0:11:30.800 I think the answer is yes. So there's gonna be 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:32.959 some regression at some point because he's not gonna pitch 0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:36.240 you an ear a under two. But overall he's been 0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:37.760 awesome and I think a lot of credit goes to 0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:40.720 their pitching coach, Dereck Johnson. Right sell Glaciers allows his 0:11:40.840 --> 0:11:45.440 first run, his first earned run since over the last 0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:49.120 two weeks or so, have you been surprised by his 0:11:49.200 --> 0:11:53.679 workload and where they've used him or now he's still 0:11:53.720 --> 0:12:00.240 getting the majority of the correct save opportunities. He has 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:02.839 taken on a pretty big workload so far to start 0:12:02.880 --> 0:12:06.040 the season. He's appeared in twelve games, he's got he's 0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:09.520 right around thirteen and he's pitched. But they have seven 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:12.120 save opportunities this season. I mean I have nine save 0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:14.640 opportunities this season. He has seven of those, and he 0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:17.840 has six of their seven saves. So I had concerns about, 0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:19.720 you know, where were they gonna use him again with 0:12:19.760 --> 0:12:22.200 Derek Johnson coming over. Was he gonna make them their 0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:24.480 version of Josh had something that he did with the 0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:27.439 Brewers the past couple of years. I did have my concerns, uh. 0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:30.800 And overall, you know, Righty Glaciers does have four losses 0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:32.280 on the year, he has a three point three eight 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:35.040 yar a, but twenty two strikeouts in thirteen and a 0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:36.760 third ending s pitch and the fact that he has 0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:39.160 six of the seven saves. I think if you drafted 0:12:39.400 --> 0:12:41.719 right Stilly Glaciers, you'll sign up for what he's done. Yeah, 0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:43.520 I completely agree. And I was actually more on a 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:45.800 Glaciers than than you were, kind of believing he was 0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:47.760 clearly the best reliever, and I thought that he would 0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:49.000 find his way in the ninth inning. It was a 0:12:49.040 --> 0:12:51.240 little manager speak, and it seems like, at least through 0:12:51.320 --> 0:12:54.559 April that seemed to be the case. Good news, of course, 0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:58.480 they're for those that own Glaciers stolen base wise last night. 0:12:58.960 --> 0:13:01.440 Ever since for Azim in the leadoff role, he's slowly 0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:03.679 gotten hot. As you kind of called here, Frank, he 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:07.240 stole his fourth base. He's stole his fourth base of 0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:10.880 the season. Ye stole his third. Please's obviously been struggling 0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:13.200 over four. He did walk last night, still batting under 0:13:13.200 --> 0:13:15.480 two hundred week. We talked about him a couple of 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:19.480 days ago. Anyo Suarez name we have not mentioned this season. 0:13:19.520 --> 0:13:21.560 He had his what seventh home rung on this season 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:23.320 a round he which is kind of crazy. Seven home 0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:25.720 runs in the season only batting to thirty. What do 0:13:25.720 --> 0:13:28.080 you think of what au Henyo Suarez has done thus 0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:31.400 far this season? I did have some concerns regarding Suarez 0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:33.440 coming into the year. They just didn't think that he 0:13:33.480 --> 0:13:34.840 was gonna be able to live up to what he 0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:37.600 did last season. And the battle ball data last year 0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:39.640 was awesome, but the second half he slowed down a 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:42.160 little bit. Uh And so far this year, the hard 0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:45.240 hit rate is still very high. I mean it's forty 0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:48.000 seven percent and last year was forty eight percent. He's 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:51.120 hitting he's hitting more ground, he's hitting more flyballs this 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:54.160 year as well, but the line drive rate severely down. 0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:56.959 But for his BABI to be to thirty nine, he's 0:13:57.000 --> 0:13:59.600 a three fourteen career babbib, I mean there is positive 0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:02.080 regress and coming for a u Henyo Suarez. Is he 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:04.840 gonna live up to what everybody wanted him to do. 0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:06.680 I mean, thirty four home runs and a hundred and 0:14:06.679 --> 0:14:10.360 four rubies last year. That's a really really good season 0:14:10.400 --> 0:14:12.880 out of a U Henio Suarez. I think he's also 0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:15.200 come close to thirty home runs, maybe even eclipse it, 0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:17.839 just because of the ballpark that he hits in UM. 0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:20.920 But overall the slow start to the rest of the 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:22.840 Red lineup, I don't know that he's gonna come close 0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:26.080 to the one RBIs positive regression coming for the batting average. 0:14:26.440 --> 0:14:28.720 I think, you know, he's probably gonna climb up into 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:31.520 that two sixty two seventy range to sixty two career hitter. 0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:34.720 Maybe he's like a two seventy hitter and the power 0:14:34.760 --> 0:14:37.520 still comes close to thirty home runs, maybe approaches it UM. 0:14:37.600 --> 0:14:40.240 But I think the RBIs are probably gonna all short 0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:42.240 of what we were expecting, just because of the slow 0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:45.680 start the Cincinnati Reds lineup overall. But you look at 0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:47.440 his bad ball data, a lot of it is pretty 0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:49.600 much in line with what he was doing last year. 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:51.720 He said he just had some bad bad luck to 0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:55.840 start the season. Fair Enoughrez picking up on the other side, 0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:57.240 you don't even want to meague you we talked about 0:14:57.240 --> 0:15:01.200 the mental yesterday. Is he's obviously struggling in the field, 0:15:01.200 --> 0:15:02.960 he's gotten benched because of it, but he was two 0:15:03.000 --> 0:15:04.960 or three last night. He's s those third base of 0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:08.040 the season. Rosario is batting two seventy four no b 0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:10.800 P a three night team. I tell you those lots, 0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:13.720 those numbers. I think fantasy owners are gonna be pretty satisfied. 0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:16.400 Are you satisfied what you've seen from nitors are and 0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:19.600 what can we expect? Yeah? I am. I don't love 0:15:19.640 --> 0:15:22.720 the strikeout rate as a guy who, you know, a 0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:24.640 speedy guy who should be putting the ball in play. 0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:27.240 But the fact that he's improved his walk rate this year. 0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:30.040 It's still not great, but six point two percent compared 0:15:30.120 --> 0:15:32.640 to a four point nine percent last year and four 0:15:32.680 --> 0:15:35.200 and a half percent overall for his brief major league career. 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:38.440 So he's taking the steps to get better as a hitter, 0:15:38.480 --> 0:15:40.920 walking a little bit more. Uh, the two seventy four 0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:43.640 batting average, I think that's fine. Like if you were 0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:46.280 to hit around two seventy seventy five for the season, 0:15:46.280 --> 0:15:49.160 that's great. Counting stats have been pretty good. A little 0:15:49.160 --> 0:15:51.160 bit of power, two on runs, a little bit of speed, 0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:55.720 three stolen bases, seventeen r b I s probably weren't 0:15:55.760 --> 0:15:57.680 expecting that this early on in the season. The hard 0:15:57.760 --> 0:16:02.120 hit rate up tremendously last year arty eight percent. So 0:16:02.480 --> 0:16:04.480 I think overall of the strides that a lot of 0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:09.200 people were expecting a meta Rosario to make this season. 0:16:09.280 --> 0:16:11.960 Remember he's still only twenty three years old. So far, 0:16:11.960 --> 0:16:13.640 he's been off to a pretty good start. Greig, I mean, 0:16:13.640 --> 0:16:15.600 I think you want even more speed. He has three 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:18.240 stolen bases, but you know, if he could give you 0:16:19.920 --> 0:16:24.760 maybe five stolen basis pretty good. Absolutely, people were just 0:16:24.840 --> 0:16:28.760 expecting like this big breakout, maybe like fifteen homers, thirty steals. 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:31.000 I'm not sure we get that, But overall to start 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:33.320 the season, he's been pretty damn good. Absolutely, what do 0:16:33.400 --> 0:16:36.320 we come back? My man, viny Velasquez didn't have it 0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:38.840 last night.

I'll tell you a joke, 0:19:31.160 --> 0:19:35.919 Craig Vincent Alaska's that was not nice. I'm sorry that 0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:39.000 was asking for it, dude. That was not nice to me. 0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:43.159 You know how how sensitive aunts of Vinny? What was it? 0:19:43.640 --> 0:19:46.399 As I am about jeans? Yeah? How how are the 0:19:46.440 --> 0:19:50.040 jeans looking today? Greg? They're good there, all right, look 0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:51.840 a little bit better, a little bit of a little 0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:54.000 bit slimmer. I like the socks. Greg's rocking the polka 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:56.000 dot socks today. Yeah. I got the blue food that's 0:19:56.160 --> 0:20:00.119 all blue. And of the socks, the socks Vinnie's. He 0:20:00.240 --> 0:20:03.240 did not have it against the tires. He went three 0:20:03.240 --> 0:20:07.199 and two thirds, six hits, three runs, three walks. She 0:20:07.400 --> 0:20:10.280 got seventy through pitches through his less than four innings 0:20:10.320 --> 0:20:15.320 of work. Not great pop. Yeah, I guess the Detroit 0:20:15.359 --> 0:20:20.879 Tigers lineup um of all teams too. Pretty good matchup 0:20:20.880 --> 0:20:25.560 on paper here for for Vincent Alaska's But again, I mean, look, 0:20:25.640 --> 0:20:27.400 this is part of the problem when it comes to him, 0:20:27.440 --> 0:20:29.680 and I've kind of talked about this. He's he's gonna 0:20:29.680 --> 0:20:32.439 be inconsistent at times, he struggles with command. I just 0:20:32.440 --> 0:20:34.439 don't think that he's ever gonna put it together for 0:20:34.520 --> 0:20:37.520 what we were ultimately expecting from him. Uh. You know, 0:20:37.560 --> 0:20:42.200 he had a few alright seasons, some some major upside flashes. 0:20:42.240 --> 0:20:44.240 I remember he had a few double digit performances that 0:20:44.280 --> 0:20:46.560 were great, But overall, I mean, you still get the 0:20:46.560 --> 0:20:48.399 strike ats. You get seven strike ats yesterday, you get 0:20:48.440 --> 0:20:51.720
