WEBVTT - MLB: Leading Off April 26th, 2023 (Ep. 656) 0:00:06.040 --> 0:00:09.760 Welcome in everybody to Fantasy pros MLB. This is Leading 0:00:09.800 --> 0:00:11.320 Off Live, brought you by Prize Picks. 0:00:11.440 --> 0:00:13.840 Use the promo code leading Off and sign up today 0:00:13.840 --> 0:00:16.240 if Prize Picks, and of course joining me is always 0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:18.920 is the Welsh. And today we've got some day games. 0:00:19.360 --> 0:00:22.680 We got some rookie debuts. Again, this has been the 0:00:22.680 --> 0:00:23.880 month of rookie debuts. 0:00:23.920 --> 0:00:24.240 Welsh. 0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:27.840 I don't ever remember in April. Well, we've had especially 0:00:27.840 --> 0:00:30.600 this many pitchers. I mean sometimes you see the position players, 0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:34.160 but the pitchers constantly. We're getting all these guys. We've 0:00:34.159 --> 0:00:37.879 got Brandon Fought on his way too. But today is 0:00:38.040 --> 0:00:42.040 byby day. So are you excited for this incredible influx 0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:44.280 of young pitchers we've gotten here in just the first 0:00:44.280 --> 0:00:45.200 few weeks of the season. 0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:48.440 Yeah, it's pretty awesome. And we're seeing the repercussions of 0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:51.480 baseball finally incentivizing teams to be like, hey, bring up 0:00:51.720 --> 0:00:53.720 your best players, even if they're in the miners and 0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:57.120 they're young. But I will see the pitching caught me 0:00:57.160 --> 0:00:59.280 off guard a little bit, the amount of pitchers that 0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:02.640 keep coming up left and right, not wasting those bullets 0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:04.560 in the minor leagues. And Tanner Biby is one to 0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:08.640 definitely be excited about. Mason Miller went last night was 0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:10.520 a little rough. I mean he got his strikeouts. I 0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:12.720 did hit the strikeout prop, but he got rocked in 0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:15.000 the first inning. You saw some of the command issues 0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:17.760 and you saw some of the worries. Tanner Bybee is 0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:20.399 not really the same type of guy. It's a big, 0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:24.280 pumping fastball. It's a devastating slider. The guy's got three 0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:26.160 to four pitches that he can go to it in time. 0:01:26.200 --> 0:01:28.200 He's a command pitcher around the zone. It's a very 0:01:28.240 --> 0:01:30.319 different type of pitcher. And I think this is the 0:01:30.360 --> 0:01:33.600 guy that's a little bit more exciting for sustainability long 0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:36.319 term in the Guardians rotation if they decide to, because 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:39.360 guess what three rookies this team has put up into 0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:41.400 the rotation and it's not even May. 0:01:41.760 --> 0:01:42.480 That's wild. 0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:45.240 Tanner Bibby though, in my mind, would be the number 0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:46.680 one of these guys to try to stick around. 0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:47.880 But we will see you later today. 0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:50.240 Yeah, thirty percent roster right now. 0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:52.080 I just did the waiver wire video that should drop 0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:54.600 some time tomorrow, and I don't really care what happens today. 0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:57.120 I still want to add him and I want to 0:01:57.280 --> 0:01:58.880 if I can stash him on my roster. 0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:00.440 I want to stash him because I. 0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:02.440 Want to learn the lesson from the toadj Bradley thing, 0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:05.400 which is if a kid comes up and he's got 0:02:05.440 --> 0:02:08.040 a high pedigree and you already know that the team 0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:10.240 is looking at him for starts, well it's only April, 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:12.960 so whether he's good or bad, indifferent, it doesn't matter. 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:15.400 Opportunities might present themselves as it goes, you might as 0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:17.639 well try to get them. Now speaking which I know 0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:19.280 a lot of people are up in arms about Bradley 0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:21.480 being sent down. This is not a big deal, folks. 0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:23.720 This is like a procedural thing, trying to get him 0:02:23.760 --> 0:02:25.120 on this five day schedule whatever. 0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:26.200 So I mean, I don't. 0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:29.200 Think they're not even going to he's not gonna report 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:32.320 the Triple A. He's just designated or whatever for Triple 0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:35.000 A because they want to make roster space because well 0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:35.640 they're the race. 0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:38.560 This is well also, they actually had an actual roster 0:02:38.600 --> 0:02:41.280 move to make Jose Siri got activated, and I think 0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:43.240 this is something where it's like, right, they can use 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:45.040 the excuse of the fact I don't know what, like 0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:47.480 I would love to know explain to me, what you 0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:50.120 have to do to adjust from six to five days. 0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:53.320 I don't know, Like, what algorithm do they have to rerun? 0:02:53.480 --> 0:02:56.799 That's well, it's called sitting one extra day. I don't 0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:59.120 know what the process is in that, but I think 0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:01.360 they just had an excuse because heiri was coming up. 0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:04.200 They could option him, they could take the next couple 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:06.440 of days. He wasn't gonna be a bullpen arm, and 0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:08.720 then they could just kind of figure it out. He's 0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:10.840 not going anywhere. He's gonna be back in the rotation, 0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:13.520 and people are losing their mind. Just hold onto your tie. 0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:14.239 Just relax. 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:19.200 Relax, everybody, take relax, nice deep breaths here. And you know, 0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:22.399 it's funny that I actually think it's telling that they're 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:26.160 so willy nilly with their options on him already. To me, 0:03:26.280 --> 0:03:28.000 that's a big signal of, yeah, this kid's in our 0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:30.480 rotation for the rest of the season to me, because 0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:32.040 you know, usually you don't want to burn all these 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:33.919 options that the kids have when they're young, especially for 0:03:33.960 --> 0:03:36.480 a small procedural move like this. This is kind of like, yeah, 0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:38.240 all right, he's gonna stick around, so let's just kind 0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:40.000 of use him now, continue to try to build this 0:03:40.080 --> 0:03:42.480 lead in the East as things continue on. So a 0:03:42.480 --> 0:03:44.920 lot of things going on there. Let's talk about Brady 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:47.880 Singer if we can for a moment. Here his best 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:50.520 start of the year, which again the bar was very low. 0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:54.960 It was like James Cameron low. But five strikeouts, six innings, 0:03:54.960 --> 0:03:56.920 one run baseball. Is Brady Singer back? 0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:04.040 No, Maybe, like Brady Singer was in cut range. If 0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:06.000 you wanted to move on from Brady Singer, you could 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:08.680 even after that start. Here's a couple things for you. 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:12.120 After that awesome start, he still is in the worst 0:04:12.200 --> 0:04:15.640 percentile of a hard hit percentage, given up two hitters 0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:18.520 in the league. He's in the worst percentile of average EV. 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:22.159 He's giving up the top ten worst expected batting average 0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:26.680 expected slug and top fifteen percent in XCRA and barrel percentage. 0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:29.920 So he's still getting hit really, really hard. He found 0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:31.880 some of it in this game. I think he's at 0:04:31.880 --> 0:04:35.000 a space where he is a streamable guy. Actually didn't 0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:36.760 wouldn't have thought that the Diamondbacks would have been the 0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:39.360 team that you would have streamed, especially with how like 0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:43.440 you know, dominantly left handed they are and taking advantage 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:45.080 of a right hander here. But it just happened to 0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:46.800 work out. I just think he's a streamer. That's where 0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:48.880 I sit with Brady Singer. If you want to pick 0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:50.680 up but hold and see if it works out for 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:51.839 the next couple of starts. 0:04:51.560 --> 0:04:51.960 You can. 0:04:52.600 --> 0:04:54.880 But I don't have faith that this is going to 0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:56.120 continue long long time. 0:04:56.320 --> 0:04:57.200 Look, I liked Look. 0:04:57.240 --> 0:04:59.479 Singer was pretty decent last year. Even the thing is 0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:04.040 decent on a team is again not exciting, So uh, 0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:06.080 you know, I think it's an opportunity where if you 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:07.680 want to get out from Singer, this is a good 0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:09.960 spot to But I think you just kind of, you know, 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:11.800 go through, play the matchups with him and hope that 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:13.520 he can give you more starts like this and less 0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:16.000 of the other ones. Jared Duran went three to four 0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:17.960 with a Grand Slam on Tuesday. He led the Red 0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.640 Sox and eight six a win over the Orioles. The 0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:25.200 Pirates spent some money Welsh Brian Reynolds and the Pirates 0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:28.280 eight year, one hundred and six point seven million dollar 0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:32.680 contract extension. I don't understand this. If you're the Pirates, 0:05:32.880 --> 0:05:36.200 I mean, I get it. It's fun right now. Brian 0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:39.359 Reynolds is a nice player. This is not an absurd contract. 0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:41.080 I gain you think they're playing with monopoly money? 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:42.200 What do you mean? What did you do? 0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:44.520 I think if I have one hundred million guaranteed to 0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:46.599 spend on a player for eight years, there's ways to 0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:48.680 put that into a better player than Brian Reynolds. 0:05:49.640 --> 0:05:50.160 How about that? 0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:52.080 I mean, because person would never let me throw out 0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:53.960 one hundred million dollar contracts like the candy. 0:05:54.400 --> 0:05:56.240 Yeah, but maybe this is the start. Maybe this is 0:05:56.279 --> 0:05:57.520 the start of locks. 0:05:57.440 --> 0:05:59.360 The overpay guy. Really well, but. 0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:02.760 Like hundred million dollars, you know, in old Pirates terms, 0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:05.919 is probably like locking down sixty seventy million dollar deals. 0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:08.640 They still wouldn't do. But like, there has to be 0:06:08.720 --> 0:06:10.680 a point, unlike the A's, there has to be a 0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:13.600 point where a team looks to build some type of 0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:17.000 a winner. And the Pirates, you know, much to my surprise, 0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:20.560 how good they've been. You know, Ki Brian Hayes has underperformed, 0:06:20.600 --> 0:06:24.000 talked about him in the trade video. O'Neal Cruz injury 0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:25.919 was you know, kind of a bummer. But the pitchers 0:06:25.920 --> 0:06:28.080 have been playing up and Brian Reynolds has been the 0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:30.120 heart of that. I just never thought he would resign 0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:32.000 with this team. I thought it was also about winning. 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:34.400 It was just about money. He just wanted to get paid. 0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:36.880 It was league in all fairness guaranteed. 0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:39.720 Hundred million dollars is a lot of money for anybody, 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:42.240 you know, especially for Brian Reynolds, who's been a nice player, 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:45.719 who's at some nice seasons. So again, I get what 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:47.360 you're saying. You know, we even mentioned it just a 0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:49.520 couple of days ago that Jason Worth overpay. Right, you 0:06:49.560 --> 0:06:52.320 do that to start bringing people in. But I don't 0:06:52.360 --> 0:06:53.840 know if Brian Reynolds is the guy that really is 0:06:53.839 --> 0:06:54.640 going to bring I just know. 0:06:54.680 --> 0:06:56.280 It's an overpay. That's the only thing I'm pointing out. 0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:58.240 Like, I don't think it's an overpay, But one hundred 0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:00.000 million dollar commitment to Brian Reynolds is a lot of 0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:01.320 money for a team that doesn't give in a lot 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:02.839 of money to a lot of people. Unless this is 0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:06.719 the beginning of them starting to do that with some 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:07.960 other players that they have. 0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:10.520 You know, it sucks that Cruise is hurt. 0:07:10.440 --> 0:07:12.880 Right now because if Cruise was playing well and then 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.800 they coupled this with a Cruise signing probably one of 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:17.960 those wonder Francoish kind of deals or something like that, 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:21.840 not quite that you know, length or or dollar amount, 0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:22.680 but then we could. 0:07:22.440 --> 0:07:24.840 Really see something here. Here's one from Casey White. 0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:30.080 Carl's Korea is doggy duty. There you go, that's pretty accurate. 0:07:30.080 --> 0:07:31.760 What should I do with him in a ten man league? 0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:33.880 Welsh? What do you do with Korea and a ten 0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:34.520 man in. 0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:35.880 A ten man boy? 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:39.120 You know, he might be easily movable in a ten 0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:42.640 man league, though we've talked about how like shortstops are 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:44.800 just kind of like blag, you know, like we've lost 0:07:44.840 --> 0:07:49.240 the depth of the position if there's some good bats 0:07:49.240 --> 0:07:51.360 out there. I also kind of trying to sit here 0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:53.240 and think, like what place are you playing, And if 0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:55.600 you're playing Yahoo, there might be a couple more shortstops 0:07:55.640 --> 0:07:57.400 that are going to be eligible and pushed down. But 0:07:57.440 --> 0:07:58.760 at the end of the day, in a ten man league, 0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:00.960 I think you have a lot of flexibility to move on. 0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:03.280 Even if it was a bath that was taken you know, 0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:06.320 kind of high ish. He's gonna rebound, so you just 0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:08.360 need to know that he's gonna rebound at some point. 0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:10.080 But what is that rebound? 0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:11.400 With Carlos Kree Every year. 0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:16.320 Twenty homers, eighty runs, eighty five RBI, hits, two seventy. 0:08:16.360 --> 0:08:18.160 That's what you're gonna get whin he rebound. So if 0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:20.560 there's someone else on the wire, in a ten man 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:24.120 that can fill some categorical stuff like stolen bases, yeah sure, 0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:25.400 I think he's cutable. 0:08:26.000 --> 0:08:28.240 All right, let's continue on with some of the other news. 0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:32.240 Brenton Doyle three to four with the Ribby two stolen bases, 0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:35.800 and the Rockies win over the Guardians yesterday. So again, 0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:37.560 a lot of these young players, and it's Michael Bush 0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:41.040 is gonna be temporary because Max Munsey is on the 0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:44.480 fraternity list. But this is a guy who's been red hot, 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:47.520 Michael Busch over at Triple A three thirty seven, four 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:50.640 sixty one, nine sixty seven with two homers, with some 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:52.439 of the struggles of Vargas. Do you think it's any 0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:54.080 chance that Bush is one of these guys you gotta 0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:56.479 sneak through and maybe sticks around longer than you realize. 0:08:57.640 --> 0:08:59.719 You know how this season has gone with rookies. I 0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:01.520 don't want to be definitive. I'm not gonna be on 0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:03.480 here and be the person that's like this could never happen, 0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:06.320 because anything can happen, and it is happening this year. 0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:09.640 But I would say, I think it's a really tough one. Vargas. 0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:13.000 Even though he's struggling hitting, he's still getting on base, 0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:15.120 he's walking, he's kind of, you know, providing what I 0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:18.000 think what they at least want at serviceable want on 0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:20.240 the bottom of the lineup, and you don't want to 0:09:20.320 --> 0:09:22.920 hurt him too much. And he's been suffering from that injury, 0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:25.280 and then elsewhere you're just like, where else does he play? 0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:27.199 You know, there is no other spot major injury. 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:29.320 I think Michael Bush is the next guy because he's flexible, 0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:31.520 he can move around and play first, he could play second, 0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:34.280 kind of like a Maximunthy type. He's cut his strikeout 0:09:34.320 --> 0:09:36.360 percentage this yere, which has been good. I'm a big 0:09:36.360 --> 0:09:38.120 fan of Michael Bush, but like a lot of those 0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:40.920 Dodgers prospects, sometimes it's like he would be great somewhere 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:43.040 else if he had playing Yeah, I just don't see 0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:46.120 long term playing time unless there's like an injury. 0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:47.520 That is fair. 0:09:47.559 --> 0:09:49.720 I don't either, But I think in those deeper leagues, 0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:52.000 maybe Adam for a book and just kind of see 0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:54.640 what happens there By the way, Serviceable Want was also 0:09:54.880 --> 0:09:58.360 the title of Mike Maher's first romance novel that he 0:09:58.400 --> 0:10:00.719 wrote back in the late night. So you want to 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:02.880 check that out, I believe you can get it. You 0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:05.040 can get it on Amazon. I believe are here's the 0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:07.199 injury round up for you. Michael Harris is gonna be 0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:09.800 get a minor league rehab assignment in Triple A on Wednesday. 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:10.720 Hooray. That's good. 0:10:11.000 --> 0:10:14.240 Also, Travis Darnault slowly working his way back to should 0:10:14.240 --> 0:10:16.000 get him back shortly. So if he's floating on the 0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:18.360 waiver wire somehow, and you know you didn't pick up 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:21.360 him last week for ol Hoppy, well maybe Darnaut's another guy. 0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:24.439 Luis Arise remains out of the Marlins line up yesterday, 0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:25.360 so we'll keep an eye on that. 0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:25.480 So. 0:10:25.600 --> 0:10:28.400 Jady Martinez was also up yesterday with the back issue. 0:10:28.400 --> 0:10:30.560 Old people have back issues. What do you want for me, folks? 0:10:30.679 --> 0:10:32.680 This is what happens when you get old. Tony gonsol 0:10:32.760 --> 0:10:35.000 and makes his debut against the Pirates today. What are 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:37.640 your expectations. He's been pretty good so far in the 0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:39.880 minor league. Be excited about this start here. I know 0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:43.040 he's going against Oviado, so everybody ovie excuse me, everybody's 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:46.240 really excited about the the Oviedo these days, so people 0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:48.000 are rooting against gonsoly and I feel. 0:10:48.200 --> 0:10:56.559 No yesterday, it was yesterday, that's right, Yeah, it's it's Contrariusansey. 0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:59.080 I'm sorry I confused my young Pirate pitchers there for 0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:02.640 a second. It was yeah, well, my apologies to everyone, both. 0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:06.360 Equally kind of exciting. You know, I'm a little tempered 0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:09.600 about it. I watched the last rehab start. He went 0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:12.840 like three innings. He got really pitchy in the innings 0:11:12.840 --> 0:11:14.800 where it was just a lot of pitches here, things 0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:15.400 getting fould. 0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:17.360 Oh, I thought you meant like vocally he didn't sound 0:11:17.400 --> 0:11:17.679 as good. 0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:20.480 Yeah, it's a pitch perfect He's in the pitch perfect. 0:11:20.520 --> 0:11:23.040 Him and Anna Kendrick got a little pitchy. I don't 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:25.400 know if it's gonna because the Pirates have been doing 0:11:25.400 --> 0:11:27.440 a good job of like not striking out a whole 0:11:27.440 --> 0:11:29.720 bunch kee. Brian Hayes is a great table setter in there. 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:33.320 You know, they can sneak some hits in. I don't know. 0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:35.320 I'm gonna say this and he's gonna go six and 0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:38.600 be perfect, But I don't know if Gonsolin is gonna 0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:41.000 have the bullets to get like out of the fifth. 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:41.600 Inning in this one. 0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:43.520 So this is probably even though I know it's Spirates, 0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:45.920 there's probably one like if you're trying to save some 0:11:46.000 --> 0:11:47.559 of your starts and stuff. I don't know if I'm 0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:49.760 gonna be putting him out there. I'm just worried the 0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:51.719 innings are gonna get They're gonna stack up on him 0:11:51.720 --> 0:11:52.199 a little bit. 0:11:52.720 --> 0:11:54.920 Here's one from Thomas helm his thoughts on may nay 0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:57.320 Machado slow start, will he bounds back? Is he's worth 0:11:57.520 --> 0:12:00.240 pursuing in a trade when his value is low? The 0:12:00.240 --> 0:12:02.839 answer is yes. I know it's two thirteen right now, 0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:06.120 one home or one steal the ops Welsh's at five 0:12:06.240 --> 0:12:06.760 twenty seven. 0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:07.679 That is horrendous. 0:12:08.120 --> 0:12:11.040 But to me, you know this is the this is 0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:13.400 your window to buy many Machado. He didn't all of 0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:15.720 a sudden not be is not a good player anymore. 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:19.000 So I mean these windows when superstars are really small. 0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:21.439 Typically i'd be all over this. If you can get 0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:22.480 Machada right now. 0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:24.800 Yep, this one, I'm probably not gonna even like. You 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:26.920 don't even need to look, you don't even like look 0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:28.520 at stats and stuff like that. I don't care. I 0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:30.920 want many Machado he'll get going. It's been definitely it 0:12:30.920 --> 0:12:33.720 feels like a slower start than usual, but he will 0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:35.800 get going. That offense will get going at some point. 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:38.720 It's not I'm buying any low cells of Many Machada 0:12:38.800 --> 0:12:40.319 and I have been seeing them. I got a couple 0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:43.200 different tweets about people being able to make trades on 0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:46.680 Many Machado. One was like, it's like Dansby Swanson and 0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:49.800 something to get Machado and Lodolo, and I know, like 0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:53.520 got Lodolo in the trade video yesterday. I kind of said, 0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:56.280 this could be the possibility that's happening. But the stuff 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:58.880 is still there. He's just not throwing that curveball and 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:00.360 not getting the whists on the curve all that he 0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:02.440 needs to more for seen, Fastball was talking about that 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:04.840 with Eno Serus. So he got both of those guys 0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:07.839 for like whatever pitcher in SWAT and that's like that's 0:13:07.880 --> 0:13:10.880 a smashing deal. Like absolutely, go and get Manny Machado 0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:12.440 at super low cost. 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:15.400 Right now, it's tricky because third base is a tough position, 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:18.840 so like deealing from a position of strength there, it's 0:13:18.960 --> 0:13:20.960 kind of hard. I mean, people want to put like 0:13:21.280 --> 0:13:24.000 Max Munsey with his eleven home runs and something else 0:13:24.000 --> 0:13:24.840 and there from Machado. 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:26.640 Maybe you want to put my. 0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:28.120 Surprised people are doing that. 0:13:28.160 --> 0:13:30.640 I'm actually surprised people are moving off of their machados 0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:31.080 right now. 0:13:31.679 --> 0:13:33.000 Well, I mean, I think by the time you get 0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:34.520 a month too the season, people start to panic a 0:13:34.520 --> 0:13:36.720 little bit on players that they spent first and second 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:39.600 round draft capital. And I don't think that's a bad 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:41.880 reason to panic. It's more of a reason to understand 0:13:41.880 --> 0:13:43.160 that when you look at the end of the year, 0:13:43.200 --> 0:13:44.640 is he going to be around thirty and one hundred. 0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:45.240 Of course he is. 0:13:45.600 --> 0:13:47.720 So where's the hot streak coming? It's coming at some point, 0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:50.120 so you got to be on that. More injury news 0:13:50.120 --> 0:13:53.000 to Cody Bellinger on the paternity list again, not injury, 0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:57.720 but your Noverez is absent in the lineup yesterday for 0:13:58.400 --> 0:13:59.079 the Astros. 0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:01.160 Only a dad by the would say that that's an 0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:02.480 injury news is paternity. 0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:04.559 That's a bad thing of you. 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:08.079 Here's a fun tweet from Brian Hawk. The Twins have 0:14:08.160 --> 0:14:11.640 won their first series over the Yankees since two thousand 0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:13.719 and one, So Joe Ryan went out there and threw 0:14:13.760 --> 0:14:17.520 another gym yesterday. Entering the season, the Twins had lost 0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:20.960 sixteen of their previous nineteen games versus the Yankees, including 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:21.840 the postseason. 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:26.240 That's pretty unbelievable. Joe Ryan's been a huge, you know 0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:31.040 piece for the Twins this year. But despite Korea being, 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:33.120 as Casey put it earlier in the show, Doggy Do, 0:14:34.360 --> 0:14:39.000 despite Byron Buxton being pretty much the pooper Scooper, the 0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:41.800 Twins somehow with this pitching. I mean's Sunny Gray, it's 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:44.520 Pablo Lopez, it's Tyler Molly. 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:46.000 And it's Joe Ryan. And let me tell you, it's 0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:46.880 been great so far. 0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:48.920 For that, I actually think this is like one of 0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:51.520 the scariest teams because like it's almost across the board 0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:55.280 outside of stupid Joey Gallo, that whole offense has struggled. 0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:58.040 All the pieces Miranda has struggled. They've been the injuries 0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:00.520 and rookies coming up and all that. While that has 0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:03.960 been phenomenal, and I think that's such a good sign 0:15:04.000 --> 0:15:06.480 for the future for a team to buy in on. Also, 0:15:06.520 --> 0:15:11.280 there's a great video of some reporter telling Byron Buxton 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:13.880 about this stat and his face kind of lighting up 0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:15.760 like he had no idea had been that long since 0:15:15.800 --> 0:15:18.480 they won a series against the Yankees, and I don't know. 0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:20.800 I still like Buckston. I hope he picks it back up. 0:15:20.840 --> 0:15:23.600 He just smashing insane Homer the other day. He just 0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:25.480 needs to do that, you know, like consistently. 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:28.360 All Right, Corbyn Carroll one of the three ops yesterday, 0:15:28.360 --> 0:15:30.360 three for four with a triple a double two stone bases. 0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:31.480 Ooh, he looks good. 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:34.160 So it's still Au at the top of that board 0:15:34.520 --> 0:15:38.160 for Rookie of the Year. But Corbyn Carroll still at 0:15:38.200 --> 0:15:38.560 the top. 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:40.720 Did you look at the odst I for album's at. 0:15:40.600 --> 0:15:43.160 The top right now? They're closed, but he Oltman's at 0:15:43.160 --> 0:15:44.160 the top right you don't care. 0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:46.280 Did you see what Carroll's number was? 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:48.440 They're like plus three hundred, plus four hundred. 0:15:49.000 --> 0:15:49.880 He never moved. 0:15:49.880 --> 0:15:52.720 I just want to point out, Carol, in this entire process, 0:15:53.000 --> 0:15:57.720 since probably early March, he has not actually moved in 0:15:57.840 --> 0:15:58.360 his price. 0:15:58.440 --> 0:16:01.280 Everyone is moving I think plus six or seven when. 0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:02.920 No, but you got him like a little bit earlier, 0:16:02.960 --> 0:16:05.240 because I got him at like three eighty four hundred. 0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:08.120 He just stays in that like Walker's gone up and 0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:10.960 down outmans. It's just like he's the rock and everyone 0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:13.120 is moving around him, and it's the thing. If he 0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:16.640 can continues to consistently hit and steal those bases, at 0:16:16.680 --> 0:16:18.040 the end of the year he will be able to 0:16:18.080 --> 0:16:19.040 separate from the pack. 0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:22.720 I agree Jose Burrios, believe it or not, had a 0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:24.520 good start. Of course, it was against the White Sox, 0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:26.480
