We're also gonna talk about maybe the 9 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: top ten to fifteen who knows how many assets in 10 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball that we want on our fantasy teams 11 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,599 Speaker 1: for keeper leagues and or dynasty. Will dive into that. 12 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: We'll also dive into some rest of season home run 13 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 1: props that are out there too. And tomorrow's gonna be 14 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 1: a fun show because Welsh. Tomorrow we're gonna take a 15 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: heavy look at all the betting stuff still out there 16 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: for the second half. And I know you're like me, 17 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: that's an exciting thing. Now we're in the stretch run. 18 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: We know who teams are, are we kind of a 19 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: sense of who teams are not and also who might 20 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: be buyers and sellers. So are you excited about the 21 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: week of wagering we've got here before games kick up again. 22 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 2: I am, I am, because if you like to wager 23 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 2: at all, you've been a little devoid of all of 24 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 2: the major fun. There's maybe a few things missing in 25 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 2: your life, like all the bets in the world, and 26 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 2: you're just hyper focused on one spot and you were 27 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,119 Speaker 2: forced to go nut soar, just go a little bit 28 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 2: on that All Star game, which I don't believe featured 29 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 2: a run or many hits after the fifth inning. So yes, 30 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 2: I'm excited about the second half. I'm excited about finding 31 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 2: some values too, because those are kind of gone, like 32 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 2: the big guys that you and I have been jumping on, 33 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 2: like show Hey Atani at MVP. Those are gone. So 34 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 2: we're gonna have to re establish and see where you 35 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 2: can get some values, whether it's to win or maybe 36 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 2: even hopefully make a couple bucks on sites that pay 37 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: you back like fan Duel. 38 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I think for the Otani's don Julio's done. 39 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: You can't you know, vote, you know can't vote. You 40 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: should vote, you can vote, you can't. You can't bet 41 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: on the Yankees or the Astros to win their divisions, 42 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: But we'll do odds about the remaining divisions, also teams 43 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: to make the playoffs, not make the playoffs Tomorrow. Today's 44 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 1: a little bit more fancy focus, tomorrow a little bit 45 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: more wagering focus. So if you'd like to do both, 46 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 1: this is the show for you, and we're going to 47 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: be going straight through here. So let's kick things off 48 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: here with the All Star Game. We have young Carlos 49 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: Stanton taking on the MVP. I feel like the under 50 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: with the the combination of so many relief pitchers every inning, 51 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: with the strikeout rates, as you were saying, the lack 52 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: of runs and hits and created runs, I feel like 53 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: the under in the All Star Game is becoming like 54 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: an automatic smash button. Do you feel the same. 55 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: Way, Well, I mean I didn't yesterday. I was like 56 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 2: seven and a half. I like the over at seven 57 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 2: and a half with all of the relief pitchers coming 58 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 2: on the back end. The NL two was kind of 59 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 2: littered with even more relief guys. I mean I think 60 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 2: Joe Mantiply came in and like the fifth or something like. 61 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,079 Speaker 1: That like that, Actually we Mantiply. 62 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, I know you're becoming You're right, it 63 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 2: is becoming much much more. I wonder I haven't tracked 64 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 2: the downturn of it, but I mean, it was seven 65 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 2: and a half this year, and what's it going to 66 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 2: be six next year? Like, well, probably starts to. 67 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: Go to six. That's when you start to go O 68 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,080 Speaker 1: get with seven and a half. I still felt like 69 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: I still feel like that that's a good under. You know. 70 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: It's on Scotti Farros Show yesterday after dooneying we were 71 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: talking about All Star Game and he's like, what do 72 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: you what do you think about it? 73 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 2: Joe? 74 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: And I was like, look, I think, uh, you know, 75 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 1: I think it's America League. I think it's the under, 76 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: and I think you take a shot on somebody an MVP. 77 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: You know, whoever hits a home run is gonna be 78 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: MVP and your boy bucks in at home run. But 79 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: Stanton was the guy. By the way, I love the 80 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: h I love the All Star Game MVP award itself, 81 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: that Crystal bad or where the heck is? I think 82 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: I'd love to see Stanton hit a ball with it 83 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: just for S's and g's. Is that does that make 84 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: so weird? 85 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 2: No? No, I actually want them to continue like going 86 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 2: balls to the wall on that type of stuff like 87 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 2: the home run derby chain. They should be doing cool, 88 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 2: unique things. It gets players to want to come. I mean, 89 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 2: whatever they got to do. I mean, at some point, 90 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 2: don't be surprised if they start doing like some type 91 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 2: of all star ringer or something for everybody. Whatever you 92 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 2: got to do to get these players excited to want 93 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 2: to win, to get out there and to compete. 94 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: And Julio made more money in the home run Derby 95 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: I saw than he's going to make all season. 96 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 2: So that's a one hundred and seven hundred and fifty 97 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 2: thousand dollars for second place. He was making seven hundred 98 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 2: thousand as a major leaguer this year. 99 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: Very very touching moment. By the way. Also, did you 100 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 1: see the Clayton Kershaw with the young kid whose granddad 101 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: passed away but wanted to meet Clayton Kershaw before he died. Oh, 102 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: my goodness, you're not crying. I'm crying. It's a lot. 103 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: Kershaw did a nice job. There was very nice, so good. 104 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 2: Kirshaw is really good about all of that stuff. Like 105 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 2: he's very very tuned into kids. I've been over at Dodgers. 106 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 1: Unlike Mike Mayor. Could you imagine Mike Mahyor is like, hey, 107 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: my granddad wanted to meet you, Mike Mayor before he 108 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: died of cancer. Mike Maher is like, kid, I don't 109 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: have time for this, Like we're all gonna die, kid, Well, 110 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: it looks like we missed our opportunity. That would be 111 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: Mike Mahyor like he'd be like, well, what am I 112 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: good was supposed to do it? 113 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 2: Now? 114 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: What am I supposed to do about it? I feel 115 00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: like that. 116 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 2: You know. One of my biggest regrets of of all 117 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 2: the things with athletes, is the picture I have a 118 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: picture with Clayton Kershaw because I've I t l famously 119 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: told the story. I don't need to tell it here, 120 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: but where I met him at a Whole Foods and 121 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 2: my pictures like blurry because I was trying to do 122 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: it quick because I felt bad about doing it. I 123 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 2: was like this, I read how often are you going 124 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 2: to be around Clayton Kersher? I take it and he 125 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 2: couldn't have been nicer. He could not have been nicer 126 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:25,919 Speaker 2: about it. But I got a blurry picture with the 127 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 2: cy young winner. 128 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: That's awesome. Well there you go. That's that's something you 129 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: can always take with you Cosse struck out the side 130 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: for the All Star Game. Alec Manoa very entertaining too 131 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: on the microphone yesterday. God, I love that Hoss, I do. 132 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: I Just why am I such a sucker for the 133 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 1: Big Hoss pictures? I don't know, just love that guy. 134 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: He's a good time interest stuff. 135 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: By the way, Oh it's my favorite thing. But interesting 136 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,039 Speaker 2: you keep me in Bogman around You're like, Oh, I 137 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 2: love these Big Hoss pictures. They're a connection little Hoss 138 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 2: so I look up to. I've been saying this for 139 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 2: a while. I don't know when baseball is going to 140 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 2: take like the forefront and wanting to really really improve 141 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 2: the game. You know, they do so many things to 142 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 2: hurt themselves. As small as some of this stuff is, 143 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 2: I think. 144 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: I get it. 145 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 3: I love custom bats like the bat that Julio under so, 146 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 3: I honestly think it would be such a huge improvement 147 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 3: if they even allowed something like that in games to 148 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 3: start having. 149 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 2: But I love the micd up. I think that's a 150 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 2: way to get more personal with players. I think people 151 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 2: lack connections sometimes. I think every single. 152 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: Television like, I don't get what's the problem, but they. 153 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 2: Don't let them do the they don't let them go 154 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 2: crazy with cleats. They have two. That's the stuff you do, like, 155 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 2: let let the guys bat flip let there be really 156 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: cool custom things that kids can see and get excited about. 157 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,119 Speaker 2: Whether it's cleats, whether it's bats. Get these guys miked 158 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 2: up in every single game that could be televised. I 159 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 2: think it's the best thing to do. I want to 160 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 2: see more of it. I want to see more of 161 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 2: the things that we love in the personality that moment 162 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 2: with with David Ortiz where David Ortiz is like, how 163 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 2: would you pitch me? And he starts to tell alec 164 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 2: Mino starts to go through it, and then Pobby's like, 165 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 2: get out of here. He's like and he just walks off. 166 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,799 Speaker 2: He's like, you're not gonna strike me out. Like those 167 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 2: type of things like that is all really really good 168 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 2: for baseball. It's just a shame that we only celebrate 169 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 2: it in a all starter or championship type of way. 170 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 2: We should do it all the time. 171 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: Well, and not everybody has got a personality. Let's be honest, 172 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: here's a lot of guys that are duller than dirt. 173 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: You know that you just don't want to you know 174 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: put that. 175 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 2: Well, we're not gonna make those guys up. We don't 176 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 2: have to worry about that. For every one of those guys, 177 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 2: there's a Mookie bets, you know, right, like we don't. 178 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 1: I remember back in the day, my favorite micd up 179 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: thing ever was Jason Kipness when he was still playing 180 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: on the Cleveland Indians at the time, singing Adele playing 181 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: second base, and he was like, yep, I'm singing Adele 182 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: right now. He was in spring training ahead of my 183 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: dump and he was just singing Adell songs. That was 184 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: my favorite thing ever. 185 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm surprised the MLB network hasn't, or just 186 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 2: MLB in general, it hasn't created some type of like 187 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 2: special miked up feed. I mean, be a little dicey, 188 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 2: but I'd like to see some of that. 189 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let's some really funny things that the 190 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: chat to. By the way, about Mike Mayor being mean 191 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: to some kid, I think it's just great, but it's 192 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: not here to defend him. 193 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 2: What a gimmick he gets to have and people will. 194 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: Know full heel Mike Mayor. The MLB and MLBPA is 195 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: discussing the rule changes for next year. They have forty 196 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: five days to agree upon. The big giant bas is 197 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: the pitch clock. All that stuff. Now, I went to 198 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: the game where the pitchclock in summer set. When I 199 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: saw a Volpie play a couple weeks ago, I loved it. 200 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: It was great, kept the game moving, and there we 201 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: was a crap ton of runs. I think there were 202 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: sixteen runs in that game and it's still finished under 203 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: three hours. And I'm like, tell you, this is great. 204 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: I know, I know. 205 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 2: I've been seeing the pitchclock for quite some time. They've 206 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 2: done it in the AFL, they've done it at the 207 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: lower level. 208 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: What a big deal, Like, it's just well when a 209 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: guy shows down. 210 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 2: This is what people get pissed off about, though, is 211 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,959 Speaker 2: when when the guys don't move it along and it 212 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 2: throws a ball on the count and everyone's like what 213 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 2: And you get fans pissed off because a guy is, 214 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,439 Speaker 2: you know, slowing down the game or whatever. I think 215 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 2: it's great. I think it's fine. I think I've seen 216 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 2: players adjust to it perfect. Okay, it's very very little 217 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 2: impact on the game outside of speeding it up. 218 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: Agreed, all right, also impactful. Drew Jones agrees to an 219 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 1: eight point nine eight point one night. It's using million 220 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: dollar bonus. Not too bad for mister Jones and me 221 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: gonna be big star as well. She can be. 222 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,719 Speaker 2: I'm I'm keeping my eyes open in the bushes or 223 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 2: when Drew Jones comes here to Phoenix. I don't know 224 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 2: when exactly it's going to be. It could be Thursday. 225 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 2: Complex Level starts back up tomorrow that I do think 226 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 2: it wouldn't be in a game at this moment, though 227 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 2: we would say it's been quite a few days in between. 228 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 2: But they got Thursday, Friday, Saturday. I think next week 229 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 2: is a real high possibility. I'm gonna watch though, because 230 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 2: he could pop up and be a round camp and 231 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 2: then he probably is gonna start getting in games. My 232 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 2: assumption would be starting next week as easy as it goes. 233 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:48,959 Speaker 2: But these guys, you know what they always like to do. 234 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 2: They like to bring the guys in, like parade them 235 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 2: around town a little bit at a home game, and 236 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 2: I don't know why they do that whole thing before 237 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 2: they play. But him signing first is a huge, huge win, 238 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 2: and I will be out, I can promise you if 239 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 2: I know the day of the debut, as long as 240 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 2: it's not this Saturday late. I will be at Salt 241 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 2: River Fields and I will be there for his debut, 242 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 2: and I will be there for quite a few games 243 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 2: to watch Drew Jones as a diamondback. 244 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: He's quite a talent. The question is, are we gonna 245 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: see the talent of Jacob de Gram again? Simulated game 246 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: moved to Thursday. He was apparently there being overly cautious 247 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: with the shoulder soreness or whatever is going on here. 248 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: Oh well, shall we get to see Jaob bagram pitcheon 249 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: ending this year? 250 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 2: Yes, I'm not gonna do this. Wow, I can't. I'm 251 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 2: not gonna fall for this. I'm not gonna have this. 252 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 2: I will not have this blasphemy. We've had enough. I've 253 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 2: had enough of the injury thing where I'm like, oh, 254 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,199 Speaker 2: this guy could come back, and then he gets I 255 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,719 Speaker 2: can't be wrong about this one. I can't have the 256 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 2: injury bug bite me on this one. He will be fine. 257 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 2: They were being overly cautious. The big big marker here 258 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 2: is is if he has this last little you know, 259 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 2: start on Thursday, which they moved it to Thursday, as 260 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 2: long as everything is okay and as long as he's 261 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 2: not feeling any any more, soreness. He should go out 262 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 2: have his last throw, and then we would get him 263 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 2: most likely next week. If he doesn't do the Thursday one, 264 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have a little bit more worry because there's 265 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 2: only so much more we can do with this. But 266 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say this is a very isolated situation and 267 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 2: not absolutely panic and freak out on all my fantasy teams. 268 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: And Walkee brings up a goo Pointyo should have traded 269 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: him when they said he'd be back. Yeah, But the 270 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 1: problem is, like I don't know what you can get 271 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: for de Grom at this point, Like I don't know 272 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: the market value for him is just all over the place, 273 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: depending on this very eye of the beholder. I just 274 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:38,679 Speaker 1: wish the Mets would start to lie to me at 275 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: this point, like just say he had a stomach flu 276 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 1: or something and they pushed it back. I don't I 277 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 1: would have nice, I just just lie to me, don't. 278 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: I don't care, I don't. This is the one circumstance 279 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: where I don't want the truth anymore about Jacob Grom 280 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: because the truth is just depressing. 281 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: The smart fantasy play. We can kind of like make 282 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 2: this an overarching thing, like what Wonk's saying, the smart 283 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 2: fantasy play is take these guys who have had some 284 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,199 Speaker 2: type of injury or you know, these super hype pushed 285 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 2: up prospects. Anytime there is buzz around a player, and 286 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 2: if your risk averse, one of the best things to 287 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 2: possibly do is just go out and make the trade 288 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 2: and get what you can. Maybe you win, maybe you lose, 289 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 2: but at the end of the day, like you know, 290 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 2: maybe you win in that they get hurt and you've 291 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 2: got a bunch of assets. Maybe you lose in that 292 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 2: they you know, come back and are really good. But 293 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 2: either way you've minimize that win and loss. In this case, 294 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 2: for me, this is just one I just don't agree. 295 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 2: I wouldn't have done. I would take the risk. I 296 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 2: don't think what you can acquire for Jacob to grom 297 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 2: is I mean, I could be wrong. If someone would, 298 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 2: you know, sell you the moon. I just don't think 299 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 2: what you can get is worth giving up the risk 300 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 2: of the potential number. 301 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: Jacob being healthy. Is it worth trading him for Sean Manaiah. 302 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 2: Not even remotely close. In my mind, I think that 303 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,319 Speaker 2: risk and if I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'll take that 304 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 2: because GM I mean even projections, which you know are 305 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 2: gonna want to be a little bit stabilized, are incredibly 306 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 2: aggressive on the back half of the year for Jacob 307 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 2: de Grom. Looking over at the Bat, you can go 308 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 2: take a look at Ariol's ATC. They're aggressive on maybe 309 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: his a little bit less, but the Bat is very 310 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 2: aggressive on Jacob d Grom rest of the season. And 311 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 2: I'm gonna stick with that. And you know what, if anything, 312 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 2: maybe I take this approach. I'm getting a tiny bit 313 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,200 Speaker 2: of a value. Maybe you have an owner that's absolutely gone, 314 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 2: Oh my god, I can't do this. This is gonna 315 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,079 Speaker 2: be bad. Maybe I'm poking around, but I sure do 316 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,599 Speaker 2: want to see what happens on Thursday, maybe before. 317 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: Any Lance mccolors. Also, by the way, Lance mccolor sighting 318 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: Lily in his rehab assignment on Friday. I couldn't believe 319 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: this one interesting because there's no room at the end 320 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 1: anymore from the Colors in my opinion. So if you're 321 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: looking at this rotation, you've got Verlander, he's pretty good. 322 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 1: He ain't coming out. I know, You've got fran ber Valdez, 323 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,439 Speaker 1: You've got Garcia, You've had Oderezi come back, You've had 324 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: Christian Xavier be excellent up until these last few starts. 325 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: Or easy, he's easy to move out of that rotation from. 326 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: The guy who's gonna pitch out of the bullpen. 327 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 2: Well, well, you know what, here would be my one argument, 328 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 2: with the amount of injuries that McCullers has had, why 329 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 2: not put him in the bullpen for the rest of. 330 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: The Well, I think that's what you're gonna see. I 331 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,319 Speaker 1: think you're gonna see mccullors and Christian Haavey are in 332 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: the bullpen. And I think that is the reason why 333 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: on tomorrow show, I'm going to be very bulsh about 334 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: the Houston Astros getting to the World Series, because I 335 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: think there's very few teams that are gonna be able 336 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: to throw out those kind of arms. After throwing at 337 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: Justin Verlander at you like, that's that's tough, man. 338 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 2: I gotta agree with you on that too, especially if 339 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 2: they can just maybe go get a little bit more 340 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 2: thump in that lineup. Maybe there's a first basement that's 341 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 2: out there available you get a tiny bit more thump 342 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 2: to add to it with what is already. I mean, 343 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 2: if you've put a five man rotation, there's much better. 344 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 2: But if you lock them down into like the three 345 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 2: spot and you got you know, Verlander and Framber and 346 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 2: maybe it's Luis Garcia and then you're throwing out bullpens 347 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 2: of you know, McCullers to Javier to Presley, they're gonna 348 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 2: be really, really tough to be. They're a really good 349 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 2: bet on the back half of it this year for sure, 350 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 2: unfortunately for us. 351 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: And they got an easy schedule too, Like I mean, look, 352 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: it's always you can never have too much starting pitching. 353 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: But I also wonder if mccolor's at this point is 354 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: more a headache than he's worth. Like I wonder if 355 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: he becomes a trade chip, like he comes back and 356 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: then look good for a week and then you you know, 357 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 1: it is something else. 358 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 2: If he's one of those guys that's like mindesty with 359 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 2: the Kansas City Royals where they're just like, you know, hey, 360 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 2: we love him. But that is the perfect sat analogy, 361 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 2: like we can't count on him, Like we can't count 362 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 2: on him. I don't think they can. And that's why 363 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 2: that's a guy that you can throw in the bullpen, 364 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 2: get you two strong innings. Maybe be a back half guy, 365 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 2: you know, maybe you piggyback like a Luis Garcia, and. 366 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: Or maybe he's maybe he's a reliever like his daddy is. 367 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: Daddy was a heck of a reliever for many years. 368 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: Daddy braves, Yeah, Daddy and mccullors, I like this. 369 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 2: Rizzi is a this idea right here, Josh Bell to Houston, 370 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 2: that's the type of thing I'm talking about, Houston, go 371 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 2: and get a bat like that and put in I 372 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 2: like that scenario. 373 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: That would definitely help both sides there. All right, let's 374 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: talk about the top twenty five starting pitchers we have 375 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: rest of season now, mine skewed. I have Otani as 376 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 1: the number one overall player rest of season because if 377 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: you have him as a pitcher and a hitter, how 378 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: is he not the number one overall player? He is. 379 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: So you'll see my ranks have Altani first, then a 380 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: starting pitcher because I can't undo that they connect to 381 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: each other. But rest of season, Welsh, I've got Garret 382 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 1: Cole Verlander, Corbyn Burns, al Contra, Shane McClanahan, then Scherzer, 383 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: Musgrove Woodruff, Max Fried, Kevin Gossman. So that's like the well, 384 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: Otani's in that mix too. So Otani I believe is 385 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: a pitcher. I had him right around the right. I 386 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: think I had him at seven or eight. I actually 387 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: might have been nine now that I'm looking at it. 388 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 1: So those are basically the top ten when you throw 389 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: Atani in there, who are your top ten guys rest 390 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: of season? 391 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 3: There? 392 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 2: And I also tear them out on my ranks over 393 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 2: it in this league. But I've got McClanahan at number one. 394 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 2: I made that push quite a while ago. McClanahan number one. 395 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: So you're not concerned at all about the second half 396 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: fade at all. See that's the thing for me. I 397 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: keep coming back to the second half fade of McClanahan 398 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: as a distinct possibility. But you don't seem to a 399 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: lot of people don't seem to be worried about that. 400 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 2: Why well, I mean, of qualified highest K percentage, I 401 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 2: don't see anything at this current moment outside of you 402 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 2: could argue maybe any I don't know, I don't want 403 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 2: to say shut shutdowns, not the word I'm trying to say, 404 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 2: but like a management you on the back half. 405 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,919 Speaker 1: And maybe unsustainable ridiculously good numbers like that combination I 406 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: think is a little scary. That's why I have down five, not. 407 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 2: And to be fair, like got like Garrett Cole. Going 408 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,880 Speaker 2: back to the projections, Garrett Cole has the most projected 409 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 2: strikeouts in the second half of this year according to 410 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 2: the bat which is a big number, which could put 411 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 2: him at the top. But my point when I said 412 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 2: tears is he's a part of a tier, so you 413 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 2: could move them around. I have a plan to hand 414 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 2: at number one because I think he's been so dominant 415 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 2: and he hasn't really shown any true signs of coming back. 416 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 2: Number one strikeout picture. I love me some strikeouts, but 417 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 2: I've got him, I've got Burns, and I've got coal, 418 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 2: and that's an interchangeable tier in my eye. 419 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: So I agree with that. I agree they are the three. Yeah, 420 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: I have says my three as well. I got Cole, 421 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: Burns Verlander as well, but I have a cold Verlander 422 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: Burns right now. 423 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 2: And I'm not one hundred percent concerned with Like, if 424 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 2: you want to argue Cole is number one, I'm not 425 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 2: going to disagree with you because at the end of 426 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 2: the day, like, you're not trading one for one of 427 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 2: those guys. And if I guess all it comes down 428 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 2: to is if you were, let's say, going to do 429 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 2: like a trade package, and you could acquire either Coal 430 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 2: or McClanahan at the same cost. Then my valuation, you know, 431 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,439 Speaker 2: I probably would still leave McClanahan, though I'm with Cole. Four. 432 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 2: I got Sandie o Contra five, I've got show Heyo 433 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 2: Tani must grow Verlander, Max Schers, You're at eight, and 434 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 2: I did make I put Jacob de Gram tentatively down 435 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 2: at nine. With Dylan C said, I've. 436 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: Got da Gram at twenty two until he gets on 437 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:46,880 Speaker 1: the mount. 438 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 2: So we're on the other side of this. 439 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: On the other side, nine is correct, But to me 440 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,239 Speaker 1: it's twenty two because even if he goes out there 441 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:58,719 Speaker 1: rest of the season, it makes three starts and then 442 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: he gets hurt again. That's what I'm building into the ranking. 443 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: I'm building in injured again because I think I have 444 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 1: to at this point with Jacob, I think it's it 445 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: would be somehow I would be doing a disservice to 446 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 1: the audience if I didn't build that into the ranking 447 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 1: rest of the season of him, and I think it sucks. 448 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: I hate doing it. I feel like it's a fact 449 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: of life at this work. 450 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I don't feel like it's a disservice 451 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: because if he is out there and plays, you are 452 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 2: going to see wildly under ranked parts for him, and 453 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 2: he is going to insanely outperform. If he plays you 454 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 2: at twenty two and me at nine is too low. 455 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,479 Speaker 2: If he plays the entire second half. The only marker 456 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 2: we have right now is he missed obviously the first 457 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 2: half and there's a little bit of shoulder soreness, and 458 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 2: that is something that should make us hesitate. I moved 459 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 2: it back before we started this because of the shoulder, 460 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 2: but I don't again you say it's a disservice. I don't. 461 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,679 Speaker 2: You should know the implied risk. The implied risk is 462 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 2: both sides. What's the biggest risk he gets hurt again, 463 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 2: you lose him for the rest of the year, and 464 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 2: we're all banging our heads against the table. What's the upside? 465 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 2: He's the number one pitcher the back half of the 466 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 2: year who was in minor league, starts throwing one hundred 467 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 2: plus coming off of this injury, so he is tough. 468 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 2: I think he's the most difficult of all of these 469 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 2: to manage. And whatever side you want to be on, 470 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 2: that's totally okay. I'm jumping in front because I am 471 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 2: just way less risk averse. I play on the edge. 472 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 2: I put my foot over the edge of the cliff 473 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 2: a lot more than Joe or Wonky or anybody does. 474 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: Here you go, that's a good conversation. All right, Let's 475 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 1: go to the rest of your tiers here too, because 476 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: after this you have Dylan Sees, Kevin Gossman, Aaron Nola Manoa, 477 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 1: Wheeler Kershaw, Gielito Woodruff, Rodin Rodand's a little lower for you, 478 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: which is interesting in Bieber. Why is Rodond so much lower? 479 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 1: Is that just because injury history? 480 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,679 Speaker 2: Injury history, well, a little bit of injury history. There 481 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 2: was some early inconsistency. He's been awesome as of recent 482 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 2: The strikeouts have been there as well. He's a little 483 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 2: bit walk especially if you look at like some of 484 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 2: the top guys in performance. So you know San die 485 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,479 Speaker 2: al Contra rocking a two walk per nine. You got 486 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 2: this huge, huge barrage of guys too, by the way, 487 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 2: between like Nola, Freed, McClanahan, that are all those sub 488 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 2: two walks. He's an over three. 489 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: You know. 490 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,919 Speaker 2: The two top guys, the two top pitchers on this 491 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 2: list that have an over three walk per nine are 492 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 2: Dylan ceason him and that worries me as far as 493 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 2: consistency goes just a tiny bit. I guess it's one 494 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 2: of those things where it's like, I don't realize I 495 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 2: hate him as much as like my rank does when 496 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 2: I do it at the end of the day. But 497 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,400 Speaker 2: this is just once I put it out, I was like, oh, yeah, 498 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 2: I guess I do have him a little bit lower. 499 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 2: I'd moved a couple I have free. 500 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: You've got him at twenty five. I got him at ten. 501 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: That's a big difference. 502 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 2: That's a bit. I mean, he's had a solid season. 503 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 2: I just think it's continuously performing on the backup of 504 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 2: the year. It's low strikeouts, I mean the under nine 505 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 2: k per nine, which is something that's a little bit 506 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 2: of a worry, a really really low home run total 507 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 2: that I think could pop just a tiny bit. And 508 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 2: he's got one of the few a lot of these 509 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 2: guys you're gonna see with some inflated x fips. He's 510 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 2: just another one of those. It's an over three x 511 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 2: FIP from his two eras. So I don't know. I 512 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 2: think there's some potential implied push back on the back 513 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 2: half of this year. But again, this is one of 514 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 2: those things where it's like I pushed him down, probably 515 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 2: because I don't I pushed him down, by the way, 516 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 2: He's in a tier of guys that are up from 517 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 2: twenty to twenty five. It's a lack of strikeouts. I'm 518 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 2: still a really good pitcher. I just think I'm a 519 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 2: little bit off. Wonky has him at seventeen. I think 520 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 2: I think I'm kind of close, but I guess so're 521 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 2: just between us. I'm the lower ish man on him. 522 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's funny. The biggest riser I have is Jonathan 523 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: Gray at twenty six. Overall, he likes strikeouts. 524 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 2: That dude, that's a really big move for the second 525 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 2: half of the year. You don't have any concerns with 526 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 2: just the inconsistency of. 527 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: The Roger concerns. But you know what, I watched them 528 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 1: pitch and I just like what I'm seeing and I 529 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,199 Speaker 1: was waiting for this to happen. I felt like the 530 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: early season, with all the injuries and the stop and 531 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 1: start for him, he just never got into a groove. 532 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: And I feel like he's getting to a groove and 533 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 1: I think mentally for him, that's the biggest thing, Like 534 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 1: he needs to mentally break into a confident kind of place, 535 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: and if he does, I think we're gonna see the 536 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 1: guy who was selected number two overall and how good 537 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: of a pitcher he could. Because I was always in 538 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 1: fine of John Gray, So this is very exciting looking 539 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,400 Speaker 1: at the overall ranks too. 540 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 2: Real quick, cold, I want to actually ask you, I'm sorry, 541 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 2: I didn't know if you were going to move out 542 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 2: to this or whatnot. Talk to me real quick about Peralta. 543 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,919 Speaker 2: You threw Peralta back on this list. We obviously have 544 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 2: questions on it. I'm just curious about that because, like, 545 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 2: you've got major injuries there and you shot him as 546 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 2: a top twenty five starting pittures is so. 547 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: Major healthy and all the reports have been good, so 548 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: he's working his way back. So I'm at twenty five, 549 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: So like twenty five, twenty six, twenty seven, I got Peralta, 550 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: John Gray, Manaia, and Chris Bassett. Like that's the grouping 551 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: of pictures right there where I like all those guys. 552 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,880 Speaker 1: I feel good about them. But the upside, like you said, 553 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 1: the upside of the Grom, the upside of Peralta for me, Like, OK, 554 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: last year, how good he was this year? After those 555 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: first shaky starter. Two he was so good, and then 556 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: the injury came unfortunately, so fingers crossed and we're not 557 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: worrying about innings anymore. Overall players again, if Otani is 558 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: a hitter and a pitcher, he's number one. I have 559 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 1: Soto to Josey Ramirez, three, Judge a Kunya Alvarez. Julio 560 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 1: has made it all the way up to seven for 561 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: me because I am in love with Julio, you guys, 562 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 1: and I don't care who knows. Raphael Devers bets Cole. 563 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: Then you have the Verlander, Turner, Burns, the pitchers and 564 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: all that stuff. I have Lad all the way at sixteen. 565 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 1: I'd rather have McClanahan rest of the season than Flat. 566 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 1: Is that weird? 567 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 2: Hmmm, I don't know, it's not weird. It's just who 568 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,160 Speaker 2: did you say, who'd you say you rather. 569 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,400 Speaker 1: Have than Flaid McClanahan. 570 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 2: Well, no, not having mcclanahan's not weird. But you haven't 571 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,159 Speaker 2: done at sixty. What's like a hitter that you have? 572 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: Well, the next one is now. I mean the closest 573 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 1: hitter is Trey Turner at twelve, I have, and then 574 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 1: Lad at sixteen. Then there in between I think that 575 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: feels right. It's gonna show me a little bit right now, 576 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: Lad's in that, like, okay, let's let's show it. I'm 577 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: always low on Trey Turner. Everybody knows this. It's yeah. 578 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 2: I looked at your stuff. I was like, you're a 579 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 2: little bit low. 580 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 1: That's always me. That just he doesn't do it for me. 581 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 2: I am quite a bit higher. I didn't. I don't 582 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 2: have an overall to go through though. I was looking 583 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 2: through my top ten. 584 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 1: Well, maybe tomorrow. We're short on time anyway, maybe tomorrow 585 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 1: will do your dynasty top ten or something like that. 586 00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,360 Speaker 2: Oh, either one. I have a dynasty one all set 587 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 2: up on overall. My positional ranks I do are my 588 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 2: rest of season ranks are all positional, not necessarily overall. 589 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 2: But one of the things I noticed is I was 590 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 2: going to try to do this beforehand I put Turner in. 591 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 2: I was like, wow, you and I are just astronomically 592 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,880 Speaker 2: different than Turner. I will say just I might. 593 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 1: Have to revisit it, but I mean I'm always like this. 594 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 1: I'm true. 595 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, Now I am with you. On the Julio front, 596 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 2: I have him as the number two outfielder or number 597 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 2: four outfielder rest of season, and you and I share 598 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 2: a whole lot of these. I don't necessarily share the 599 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 2: really really high one Soto front with everything that's going 600 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 2: on with him, but I agree on the Alvarez, the 601 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 2: Julio Rodriguez front. It's just Turner I think belongs in there. 602 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to bet MGM, the king of sportsbooks. 603 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 1: Bet ten dollars, not two dollars. Ten dollars. I went 604 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,360 Speaker 1: two hundred on anything, regardless of the outcome. And look, 605 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:47,959 Speaker 1: we've got all kinds of fun things and props. We're 606 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,679 Speaker 1: gonna talk about a BETMGM, So you should go make 607 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 1: that deposit when you sign up. Use that promo code 608 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: leading off. That's what I did. I use our own 609 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: promo code because I'm not stupid. I had ten dollars 610 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: and I got my two hundred because they said I 611 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,159 Speaker 1: could do it, so I did it. I don't know 612 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 1: why you guys have it yet, but again, free money 613 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 1: is good. Download the BETMGM app or go to betmgm 614 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: dot com. Also, I thought these were fun things here. 615 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 1: Rest of season, we have some home run leader things. 616 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: Aaron Judge is at minus one ninety five to lead 617 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 1: the league in home runs, Kyle Schwarber at plus three fifty, 618 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: Austin Riley is at plus fifteen hundred, which I thought 619 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 1: was fascinating. Pete Alonzo at twenty to one trout and 620 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 1: Stanton at twenty five. But I thought that the Alonzo 621 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 1: twenty to one was fascinating number because we all know 622 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 1: the polar Bear can go on a run. Austin Riley 623 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: kind of interesting, could sneak in there because I feel 624 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 1: like Judge is going, look, can't make money on Judge, 625 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: so if you want to bet this, you gotta pick 626 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: somebody else. 627 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 2: Riley is interesting because he's close. The problem with Alonzo 628 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 2: is he's nine off right now, So if you're gonna 629 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 2: think you're done, you know, if you're if what was it? 630 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,479 Speaker 2: We were just looking at this the other day. I 631 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,640 Speaker 2: think it's eighteen homers projected second half almost in every 632 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 2: single projection, sit eighteen to nineteen homers for Judge. So 633 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 2: if you are already nine off, you would have to 634 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 2: be looking. And let's say he comes back just a 635 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,199 Speaker 2: tiny bit, it's fifteen. You would have to get like 636 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 2: twenty five home or second half for Alonzos. I don't 637 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 2: like that one The Riley one is interesting. I don't 638 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 2: view him quite as the same bopper, but he is 639 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 2: six off from Judge. Schwarber has twenty nine to Judge's 640 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 2: thirty three. That's probably Alvarez time. 641 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: But like, if there's a guy who can go on 642 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: a run, it's Alvarez, you know, Alvarez? Yeah, five bucks 643 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: on this. Speaking of which, there's some individual props too. 644 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: These are from FanDuel. You have Aaron Judge over under 645 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 1: forty nine and a half home runs minus one ten 646 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: is the juice you want to go over or under 647 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: the forty nine and. 648 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 2: A half absolutely smashing that over. 649 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 1: Here's another one thirty seven. 650 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 2: Who has that one? I'm gonna go bet that one. 651 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: We're dandel right now. 652 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go bet that one when we're done with this. 653 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 1: For Jordan Alvarez or or Don Alvarez. How do we 654 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: say it now? 655 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 2: Because I'm old, Listen, it's it's supposed to be said 656 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 2: like a Jordan, but nobody cares that it's that, and 657 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 2: every human being says Jordan. I think this is turning 658 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,360 Speaker 2: into I haven't heard him talk on it. I think 659 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 2: it's turning into an Eloy situation where like he doesn't care. 660 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 2: Eloy is like it's technically Alloy, but I like Eloi 661 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 2: as well. I don't mind. I hear nobody respect the 662 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 2: Jordan Alvarez and everybody just wise it to hell. They're 663 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 2: like Jordan Alvarez, So. 664 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: They say, I've heard Alvarez number thirty seven and a half, 665 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 1: also with the minus one ten over under on Alvarez. 666 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 2: Ooh, thirty seven and a half. You're currently at twenty six, 667 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 2: so you're saying eleven second half ones with a three 668 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:34,440 Speaker 2: forty seven. 669 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: I like this one better than two. 670 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 2: I do too. I like both of these. These would 671 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 2: actually be too. I would jump on. 672 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: This last one too. Mike Trout thirty three and a half. 673 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 1: I like the under on this. What do you think? 674 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 2: Yeah? I just I don't think I touch it. This 675 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 2: is one of the This is one of those things. 676 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm uh I suck at because like I want 677 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 2: to Pat GM, well, yeah, no, I understand you are. 678 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 2: But it's like I look at a guy like Ja 679 00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 2: Gram and I'm like, holy crap, he's gonna be amazing 680 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 2: when he's I want to play talent instead of holding 681 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 2: back the same thing with Trout when he's there. I 682 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 2: don't want to bet against him, but there's so much 683 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: going on with him. I get your logic. I just 684 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 2: won't mess with it because my brain would go, well, 685 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 2: he's going to smash this type of stuff, but the injuries, 686 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 2: inconsistency is how garbage that team is right now. I 687 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 2: would pass on Trout. But I do like your logic. 688 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: See I like the under. You're so negative and you're 689 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: basically setting up my argument for the under. It's like yes, yes, no, no, no, no. 690 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 2: I'm totally agree with it. 691 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 1: I just I don't want to make money on the negative. 692 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 1: That's nothing. When I see something that's overinflated, I go, yep, 693 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: that's not going to happen. 694 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 2: Well, he has twenty four and what's the number thirty three? 695 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 2: So no, that is he would need ten homers on this. 696 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 2: So you're betting nine homers or less. 697 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: Fort I'm betting on the back of my trout not 698 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: being a good thing. 699 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 2: That's what I'm going It's not it's notts. Is it important? 700 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 1: Is it? 701 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 2: Alvarez? 702 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 1: Alvarez is my favorite of the three without I think 703 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: it's smash over. 704 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 2: I think I agree with you on that one. 705 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: You could do that next month. I feel like you 706 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: know you can hit eleven on runs in a month 707 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: like that. 708 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 2: Dude, get ready, fandule account. Money's coming your way. 709 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: Go. But again, go to bed MGM and make your 710 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: bets to get the ten for two hundred. There you go, 711 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: let's go, let's get it in tomorrow. Tomorrow, we're gonna 712 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: be looking at the divisions. We're gonna be looking at 713 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 1: the playoffs. We're gonna be looking at World Series odds 714 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: and all that stuff as we preview. We have games 715 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: coming back tomorrow, so there'll be a light schedule. I 716 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: believe right, it's not a full schedule Thursday. It's light schedule. 717 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 2: I think it's yeah. I think you're right about that. 718 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 1: It's a light schedule. We want to ease our way back, 719 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: take our time. But again, this is gonna be a 720 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 1: great show because if you recall, this was the show 721 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: last year where I went on the Bryce Harper rant 722 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 1: at thirty to one for MVP and we're ran. 723 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:45,719 Speaker 2: Do you anticipate a rant tomorrow? 724 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: I can't see a world where there isn't a rant. 725 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 1: I mean, it's gotta it's gonna it's gonna. 726 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 2: Be about Jacob de gram is shut down tomorrow and 727 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 2: doesn't do his start. I'm gonna rant here. 728 00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: Here's tomorrow's day. Jacob de Gram gets shut down. I 729 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: come on the show, I'm miserable, and then Juan Soto 730 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 1: gets traded to the Mets. Later that afternoon we do 731 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: we do a special addition of leading off where I'm at. 732 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 2: He gets traded to the San Diego Potters. By the way, Bagman, 733 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 2: I do the livestream on our twitch twitch dot tv slash. 734 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,239 Speaker 2: In this league, we have a Tuesday episode we call 735 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 2: Fantasy Predictor. I broke down and we could even do 736 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 2: it here. I've actually got some new additions to it. 737 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 2: I broke down five to one Soto trade scenarios on 738 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 2: that show, and I did all the prospects. I think 739 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,479 Speaker 2: that can be involved, so you can go back and 740 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 2: watch and see what I did. But I think there 741 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 2: are some new alterations by some new information that's come 742 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 2: out that I might have some new adjustments to a 743 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 2: few of them, and I'd be glad to do that 744 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 2: as well. 745 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: All the adjustments. Check out it TL for all that 746 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 1: stuff for the Patreon and in this league, good stuff 747 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 1: with Bogman and Welsh. All right, that'll do it. For us, 748 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: but the story of the game goes on for the Welsh. 749 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: I'm Joey P Well see you next time kids. 750 00:31:54,600 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 2: Peace, SI the the Thing
