It is me and Joey. Oh, 0:00:37.880 --> 0:00:40.720 it's Joe Aurico in the house, and we had some 0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:43.680 breaking news just before the show covered, so we're gonna 0:00:43.720 --> 0:00:44.959 hit that as well. But Joe, what's up? 0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:48.839 I'm doing well? Man. It's good because these shows were 0:00:48.920 --> 0:00:50.639 kind of thinking about what are we going to talk 0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:52.879 with today, what are gonna be the hot topics, and 0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:55.520 we got a beautiful one right before we started going 0:00:55.560 --> 0:00:57.440 on today, so should be fun to talk Roman Anthony. 0:00:57.600 --> 0:00:59.920 Yeah, one of those things too. We did the Prospect 0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:03.920 with the Welsh segment, and I just always feel like 0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:07.600 when there are when there's big prospects, because I obviously 0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:10.360 don't want to retread information every week, super important not 0:01:10.440 --> 0:01:13.520 to do that. But when there are just in your 0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:18.279 face players that everyone is just like not patiently waiting 0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:21.080 for dying to come up, I feel like we have 0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:23.120 to mention. I have to have some mention of it. 0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:25.679 And I think there's only two players that really truly 0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:28.960 qualify in that range. One is Bubba Chandler, who, you know, 0:01:29.480 --> 0:01:32.520 God knows if if the moon aligns correctly at some point, 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:34.560 you know he will get called up. The other is 0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:36.560 Roman Anthony. So we kind of did at the very 0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:38.800 top of that segment like hey, here's your top three. 0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:40.679 These are the no brainers. If they come up, you 0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:42.480 just pick them up. And then we went into like 0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:46.000 some deeper prospects that you know, one guy might actually 0:01:46.000 --> 0:01:47.520 be one of the best pitchers in baseball who just 0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:49.920 got moved up a triple A. So go and check 0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:51.560 it out on the YouTube. It was un leading off, 0:01:51.560 --> 0:01:55.120 but it'll also be on the shorts. We have like 0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:58.320 a short form video on Fantasy Pro's YouTube channel YouTube 0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:01.160 dot com. Slash Fantasy pros mL BE don't want you 0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:03.480 to miss any of it, but we did kind of 0:02:03.480 --> 0:02:08.640 do a quick ish gloss through of it and with it, 0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:11.040 and I actually didn't see this, So career kick is 0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:13.359 giving me some information that I'm gonna need to actually 0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:16.959 fix today as well. Is will your Brady apparently is 0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:19.400 going to the IEL, which I did not see, and 0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:21.400 I think I picked him for the home run contest. 0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:25.440 But Roman Anthony as mentioned on the show, Hey, he 0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:27.720 could come up anytime soon. You have to roster him. 0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:31.600 And then like three hours after leading off airs, bam, 0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:34.480 Roman Anthony is officially getting called up. And it looks 0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:37.079 like Willier is kind of the piece. Can you look 0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:38.520 or I mean, I guess I could look too if 0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:41.440 that Willier news is official, because I didn't even see that. 0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:43.600 That does make sense though, because there was no like 0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:46.799 there's no corresponding move. Yeah, I do see it right here. 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:49.880 Willier is headed to the IL with an issue with 0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:53.160 his side. Roman's coming up. He's going to play tonight 0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:57.360 as we're recording this batting fifth, what's your level of 0:02:57.440 --> 0:03:00.720 aggression for yourself when you look a guy like Roman 0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:04.200 Anthony knowing that you know cag leone just came up. 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:07.080 I want you to think about it in a NFBC 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:11.320 sense of course, so everyone's gonna have actually, weirdly NFBC 0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:13.960 people might be fighting for CAGs and Roman Anthony this 0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:16.520 coming weekend because Caags came up. What was it like 0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:18.320 Sunday night or not. I guess that was last week. 0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:19.720 So that was last week and they just did that. 0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:21.679 But I want you to think of it from the 0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:24.000 long term perspective of like NFBC for the week, but 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:28.480 also a short term What level of hold are you 0:03:28.560 --> 0:03:31.400 wanting on Roman Anthony? What is your expectations and how 0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:33.160 he's been built up, Like what what do you think 0:03:33.200 --> 0:03:36.000 he aligns for like an outfielder three and outfielder two. 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:37.960 Do you think there's more upside? Do you think he's overrated? 0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:45.040 Oh? Man, I think that he's probably an outfielder. If 0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:47.520 we're talking like a twelve team kind of thing, he's 0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:49.400 probably like in the three to four range. Like he's 0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:52.920 probably somewhere in that thirty six to forty eight type 0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:57.200 of ranking range. But I'm pretty excited just considering the 0:03:57.240 --> 0:04:00.840 lineup context. Boston hasn't been amazing, but if I'm looking 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:03.120 over the last month, they ranked twelfth in the league 0:04:03.360 --> 0:04:06.760 in WRC plus at one hundred and three, So it's 0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:08.880 a solid lineup that he's going to be entering right 0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:11.080 into the middle of with that replacement with a bray. 0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:13.480 You we've been talking the whole season with the Red Sox, 0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:16.000 whereas whether it's the infield of the outfield about how 0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:17.719 they're going to make all the pieces work, and things 0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:20.600 generally do kind of figure themselves out. So will you're 0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:23.240 on the ten day. That'll give Anthony at the very 0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:25.000 minimum a week and a half the show what he 0:04:25.000 --> 0:04:26.680 can do. But even if he struggles a little bit, 0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:28.960 I think they would still keep him up. He's just 0:04:29.240 --> 0:04:33.440 a data darling. Roman Anthony has been fantastic this season 0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:36.480 in TRIPAA. He almost has walked as much as he's 0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:39.960 struck out on nineteen percent. Walk rate is ridiculous. He 0:04:40.000 --> 0:04:42.839 doesn't chase, he makes good contact in the zone. The 0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:45.320 swinging strike rate is really low. He looks like a stud. 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:48.559 He looks like an absolute superstar. You are much more 0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:51.640 data or excuse me, much more prospect driven, So you're 0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:53.560 going to be probably the better person to turn to 0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:57.200 for the specifics of Roman Anthony's development and everything. But 0:04:57.360 --> 0:04:59.560 I'm thinking that he is worth an ad even in 0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:03.960 ten team leagues. In terms of NFBC fab he's going 0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.039 to go for a lot. I mean, it kind of 0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:09.080 depends on what he does this week. But JACKI Leone 0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:13.119 was going for two to four hundred dollars, so twenty 0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:14.760 to forty percent of overall budgets. 0:05:14.800 --> 0:05:17.480 Yes, one thousand dollars budget, mind you, because if that 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:20.599 was a five hundred dollars budget, two fifty would be 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:23.719 fifty percent. So percentiles are going to be really high. 0:05:24.200 --> 0:05:27.000 Roman Anthony shouldn't have been available, And I understand the 0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:30.120 frustration because people are they're kind of throwing it out 0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:32.240 with Bubba right now. It's like, why the hell isn't 0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:35.479 Bubba Chandler up agreed. I think everybody kind of agrees, like, 0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:38.680 outside of the Pirates are kind of stank, why would 0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:40.720 you not bring up one of the best pitchers in baseball, 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:43.640 let him kind of develop and at the major league level. 0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:43.840 Like do that? 0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:47.040 Why not do it? There's control, there's manipulation and stuff 0:05:47.080 --> 0:05:50.480 like that. But at the same time, is as frustrating 0:05:50.480 --> 0:05:52.640 as it is Bubba and Roman Anthony. That were the 0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:54.839 ones where we just kind of continuously would just keep saying, 0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:57.680 just get them. Just be the guy that has them. 0:05:57.680 --> 0:06:00.279 If he's sitting out there, regardless of the format, just 0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:03.040 have Roman Anthony. If you had to pick one rest 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:06.640 of season, Roman Anthony or Jack Cagle, on what side 0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:07.000 are you on? 0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:12.320 I would probably go slightly to Roman Anthony just because 0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:15.360 I think he's gonna provide some speed and might be 0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:18.520 actually decent speed. Twenty one steals in the miners last year. 0:06:18.520 --> 0:06:20.360 He's got only three so far this year, which is 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:22.880 an amazing but he's attempted six of them, where with 0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:26.159 Jack maybe we get a couple, maybe he's in the 0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:28.680 two or three range, but the speed is definitely the separator. 0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:31.080 With Roman Anthony. He is not going to hit for 0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:33.880 as much power probably as Jack is, but still somebody 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:36.760 that could go for about fifteen rest of season, and 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:39.560 he's also in a much better lineup. Kansas City's lineup 0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:43.200 has been atrocious the entire year. I mentioned Boston just 0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:45.160 over the last month as the twelfth ranked offense in 0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:48.040 the league. Kansas City is twenty seventh. The only teams 0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:50.719 worse in that span are San Francisco, Texas and the 0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:53.720 lowly Rockies. So from a lineup standpoint from a well 0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:57.240 rounded fantasy aspect point of view, I think Anthony is 0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:59.640 the one who's gonna provide more in terms ofcounting stats, steals, 0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:01.880 batting average. I think he is the guy. 0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:05.159 I think there's definitely the possibility. The only thing he 0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:07.280 wonder is if he can ever like move up the lineup, 0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:10.040 you know, because like Bregman's gonna come back, and William's 0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:11.520 going to come back, and if there's a right hand 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:13.760 or Willie's going to go higher. So it kind of 0:07:13.800 --> 0:07:16.080 feels like Anthony might be destined to be hitting somewhere 0:07:16.120 --> 0:07:19.600 between five and seven across the board. How much wiggle 0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:21.960 room are they willing to give? You know, he had 0:07:22.040 --> 0:07:24.600 some stuff on him coming into this year where you know, 0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:28.520 there were questions about change ups and off speed, like 0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:29.840 how is he going to adjust to that? From a 0:07:29.920 --> 0:07:33.000 major league perspective, looks like in Triple A, he's really 0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:36.160 kind of, you know, answered the call. He had an 0:07:36.160 --> 0:07:39.360 incredible May June was a little it's very short sample size, 0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:42.400 but a little but you know, really great exo velocities 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:44.600 he strikes. It just hit like almost five hundred footer 0:07:44.880 --> 0:07:47.320 this weekend. So it's exciting to see and the ballpark 0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:50.160 is a really big advantage. The thing with cagleone that 0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:53.720 jumps out to me is that, like even I know 0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:56.080 it's like short sample sides like a week now, but 0:07:56.200 --> 0:07:59.960 sixteen percent k percentage, he's finding his own big hardhit. 0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:03.120 I mean of one thirteen's left and right. I know 0:08:03.200 --> 0:08:05.520 his average isn't quite there yet, but like he just said, 0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:07.480 was at four for four night, I really feel like 0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:09.560 he's coming into his own. He's gonna hit the ball 0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:12.400 really hard. I'm actually not sure that Roman Anthony beats 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:15.760 him in a five category if you look at it 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:19.400 from that perspective, like a five category breakdown, but Roman 0:08:19.400 --> 0:08:22.120 Anthony might be really really well rounded in that ballpark 0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:24.240 might help. So I'm a little bit worried about maybe 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:26.560 some chase and miss stuff. But like the only reason 0:08:26.560 --> 0:08:30.360 I'm asking this is, do you think this is a 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:32.400 prime time to try to go and trade Roman Anthony? 0:08:32.559 --> 0:08:35.800 Right now? He's up, he's hot, people are excited. He's 0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:38.079 going to revamp this offense. Like, do you think the 0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:44.880 production will warrant not moving him for let's say say 0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:49.080 like a SP thirty or twenty even twenty five, twenty 0:08:49.120 --> 0:08:51.199 five to thirty five sp in that market, do you 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:55.000 think his production will outweigh making a move. 0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:58.920 Like that, I could get the SP twenty five for 0:08:59.080 --> 0:09:02.839 Anthony or for Jack. I would be willing to do it, 0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:05.720 just because we know the struggles that rookies go through, 0:09:05.760 --> 0:09:08.800 whether it's immediately with like a Matt Shaw situation, or 0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:10.880 maybe they hit the ground running and then they struggle 0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:13.320 a little bit like Christian Campbell, I think if you're 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:15.199 taking something that is more of a sure thing like 0:09:15.280 --> 0:09:17.920 the SP twenty five this year is Freddy Peralta to 0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:20.520 date and the guys in that range are Sonny Gray, 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:24.440 Mackenzie Gore, Clay Holmes, Jack Flaherty. If I could move 0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:26.560 off of one of these guys based on the hype 0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:29.439 and get somebody like that back, Spencer Schwellenbach also in 0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:33.800 that range, like I would be looking to do that. 0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:37.040 There is always the hype. It doesn't usually match up 0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:39.319 to the production when it comes to these rookies, and 0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:41.520 it comes to stashers in general. You're holding a guy 0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:44.520 you're expecting the moon. And then I had a question 0:09:44.679 --> 0:09:46.920 last week about after like three days, should I drop 0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:48.800 Jack in a shallow league people just don't have the 0:09:48.880 --> 0:09:51.079 patience for the ups and downs of these rookies a 0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:53.280 lot of the time. So if you're able to capitalize 0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:55.520 on the hype and you're able to move one of 0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:57.679 these guys for a top twenty five or thirty sp 0:09:58.200 --> 0:09:59.800 it depends on the roster a little bit, but I 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:01.559 would be absolutely willing to do that. 0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:05.839 Also, there's no necessary guarantees at this moment, which is 0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:07.559 something're gonna have to watch for. You know, they only 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:09.959 did this because William went on the IL. Is this 0:10:10.120 --> 0:10:11.959 going to be a stop gap thing? Or is this 0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:13.960 going to be like, you know, they get to they're 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:16.880 getting a cheap look and then a move is gonna 0:10:16.920 --> 0:10:18.360 have to you know, like, what's gonna happen William comes 0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:20.760 off the IL. Are they going to make room like, oh, 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:23.440 Anthony's here, He's got to do it. Or are they 0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:25.760 going to have to move off of a of a Duran? 0:10:26.080 --> 0:10:27.280 You know, are they gonna have to send down a 0:10:27.360 --> 0:10:29.680 Christian Campbell who has just kind of had his struggles. 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:31.680 So those are It's all interesting questions. At the end 0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:32.880 of the day, I don't want to take away from 0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:35.640 like it's super exciting. It's super exciting when the top 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:38.600 prospects come up. I think it's hard to judge positively 0:10:38.679 --> 0:10:41.000 or negatively after one week on any of these guys, 0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:43.959 So just make sure you're in the market to manage it, 0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:46.280 you know what I mean. We have questions from the audience. 0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:48.600 Some it looks like there might be a Roman Anthony 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:50.599 one or two in there that I want to get to. 0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:52.920 I want to finish up this last first topic. Then 0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:54.480 we'll get to some questions, and we got a couple 0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:57.120 other things to hit. Here's here's what I was very 0:10:57.160 --> 0:11:01.239 curious about in this same vein how how many prospects 0:11:01.360 --> 0:11:05.840 do you currently think I'm gonna use the must own term? 0:11:06.080 --> 0:11:09.199 Let's think in like twelve team must own to like 0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:14.800 you should own, and then that's gonna tell us who's expendable. Obviously, 0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:18.280 there are players that like league pending and stuff. You know, 0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:19.880 you're not gonna cut this guy, cut this guy. But 0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:24.160 I'm curious that, like, how many we really think are 0:11:24.640 --> 0:11:28.920 no doubters? Jacob Wilson no doubter, absolute, no doubt, Rookie 0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:31.560 of the Year al minus five hundred. Right now he's 0:11:31.840 --> 0:11:34.120 hitting the world even though he doesn't counting stats. Absolute, 0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:35.240 no doubt or correct. 0:11:36.800 --> 0:11:39.040 Yeah, Jacob Wilson's fantastic. He's brilliant. 0:11:39.320 --> 0:11:42.839 Jason Dimingez relative no doubt. I'm not sure he's like 0:11:43.600 --> 0:11:47.000 must must must own, but I mean, I guess I 0:11:47.160 --> 0:11:49.800 I should probably pull up the stuff. But what is 0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:52.959 your initial reaction to Jason Dimingez. He's hitting two thirty six, 0:11:53.040 --> 0:11:56.560 six homers, eight stolen bases. We know this sky high potential. 0:11:57.400 --> 0:12:02.320 Is he in that twelve team must own territory? Yeah? 0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:04.959 Yeah, he's like on the on the cusp. For me, 0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:07.360 I don't think if we're talking redraft that he is 0:12:07.440 --> 0:12:10.120 somebody that I'm really hugging in the super shallow leagues. 0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:12.160 If it's a ten or at twelve team league where 0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:14.800 you start three outfielders, let's see. 0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:16.959 Field twelve team. I want to think in those terms 0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:18.920 because I think we could justify almost anybody could be 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:21.680 cutting those ten teams. So let's go five outfield twelve team. 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:23.359 We're keeping. 0:12:24.760 --> 0:12:28.400 Right, probably, probably, but I don't know that. It's the 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:31.440 thing that I like. He has six home runs all year, 0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:33.679 three of them came in that one game in that 0:12:33.920 --> 0:12:39.079 stadium in Sacramento. Strikeout rate is thirty plus percent. You know, 0:12:39.240 --> 0:12:41.360 the speed has been okay, he's got eight steals, but 0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:44.079 it's not been like game changing speed. He hasn't been 0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:46.600 He hasn't done a ton, even in a great offense, 0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:49.600 he hasn't really been amazing. So is he a top 0:12:49.720 --> 0:12:53.160 sixty outfielder. He probably is. But if there is a 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:55.960 guy sitting on the waiver wire, that is a really 0:12:56.200 --> 0:12:58.480 really solid option for you. Like if you had Roman 0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:00.839 Anthony sitting on the waiver wire, I wouldn't mind dropping 0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:02.520 to Mangas for him. That might be a hot take, 0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:04.079 but that's kind of where I'm at with them. 0:13:04.320 --> 0:13:07.520 I think that's fine. All right, Roman Anthony, we're gonna say, 0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:11.440 you know, at this moment, he is cag leone, right, 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:13.920 We're gonna throw CAGs into like that must own ish 0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:18.520 territory you need to own, right, Yeah, Okay, now some 0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:21.720 bigger questions. I think this is an interesting one, Nick Kurtz, 0:13:23.880 --> 0:13:26.160 he started to pick up before he got hurt. He's rehabbing. 0:13:26.200 --> 0:13:29.000 It looks like he's really close, Nick Kurtz. Is he 0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:30.680 in that must own territory? 0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:34.120 I think he is. Yeah. I believe he's gonna be 0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:37.160 back this week based on what I've seen. The strikeout 0:13:37.200 --> 0:13:39.200 rates still a little bit concerning, but we're talking twenty 0:13:39.240 --> 0:13:41.240 eight games. He, like you mentioned, he had started to 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:43.840 pick things up before he got hurt. So I would 0:13:43.840 --> 0:13:46.120 be holding Kurts, especially as we enter into the summer 0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:49.200 months in Sacramento, like we might see see some serious 0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:50.559 power production out of Nick Kurtz. 0:13:50.800 --> 0:13:53.400 Okay, so we've got five guys right now, and it's 0:13:53.480 --> 0:14:00.199 not that expensive. Marcelo, yeah, your name Phil. 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:03.719 I like him. I like Marcelo Mayor. I don't like 0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:05.240 the way that the Red Sox are kind of doing 0:14:05.320 --> 0:14:06.839 this with pinch hitting him and playing him at a 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:09.240 position and all this stuff. I don't really love it 0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:12.240 so much. But yeah, he is worth holding for now 0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:12.680 for sure. 0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:14.679 Oh yeah, so you think he belongs in that territory 0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:20.160 for now? I mean, I just understand this. This You 0:14:20.240 --> 0:14:22.160 don't we don't have to have everybody. That's fine if 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:23.680 he is, but I don't want you. I'm not goading 0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:25.840 you into making all these players in there. But we 0:14:25.920 --> 0:14:29.040 can put him in the mustone twelve team category right. 0:14:28.960 --> 0:14:32.120 Now, for now, for now. But I wouldn't hesitate to 0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:34.000 drop him if we're two weeks from now and he 0:14:34.040 --> 0:14:36.040 has two hits in that timeframe or something, like that 0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:37.760 he's not somebody that I'm just holding and holding and 0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:39.400 hoping out for while he's in the middle of the 0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:42.080 Red Sox lineup, playing pretty much every day. Then yeah, 0:14:42.240 --> 0:14:43.720 but I'm not married. 0:14:43.520 --> 0:14:44.840 To him cam Smith. 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:50.320 I need to take a quick peek at cam Smith 0:14:50.360 --> 0:14:51.120 because I think. 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:54.320 I want to blow through the rest of these ones. 0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:59.120 But initially three homers, I don't think he's mustone. No, 0:14:59.320 --> 0:15:00.960 I wouldn't say Stone and a twelve. 0:15:00.760 --> 0:15:04.080 Teamer Chandler Simpson, even though he's in triple A right now, 0:15:04.200 --> 0:15:06.760 those stolen bases, but he's not here. 0:15:06.920 --> 0:15:10.080 If you can afford to hold him, then I don't 0:15:10.120 --> 0:15:12.720 mind holding him. But I don't think that he is 0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:15.520 somebody like if you're in eighth place fighting for your life, 0:15:15.560 --> 0:15:18.000 that he's a mustache. If you're in first or second 0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:19.960 or third and you're a team that could still use 0:15:19.960 --> 0:15:21.400 a little bit of speed, I think he'll be back 0:15:21.440 --> 0:15:23.120 up at some point. But I think it's kind of 0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:25.920 a situational thing with Chandler Simpson. I'd try to hold 0:15:25.960 --> 0:15:26.280 if you can. 0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:29.400 I don't think like the new guys like Kyle Teal, 0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:31.880 Ryan River, Auto Camp, is there anybody else in forgetting 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:35.520 in the rookie space that's kind of like here that 0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:37.720 you like. I don't think Jackson job. Is there anybody 0:15:37.720 --> 0:15:40.680 else that warrants the question that you can think of 0:15:40.760 --> 0:15:42.560 that I'm forgetting, no. 0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:44.640 But I really like Kyle Teal. I think that he's 0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:45.960 going to be really, really cool. 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:48.440 Do you think he belongs in this conversation. 0:15:49.720 --> 0:15:52.200 Depends on who you're rolling out as your catcher, But 0:15:52.440 --> 0:15:55.040 I think I think he's on the cusp of of 0:15:55.120 --> 0:15:57.520 twelve team viability just given that he's going to play 0:15:57.560 --> 0:15:59.840 a lot the on bas skills, the speed from behind 0:15:59.840 --> 0:16:02.400 the play. I think he's I'm going to redo rankings 0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:05.200 in the next week, but he's probably around that twelve 0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:07.120 or thirteen mark for me. So I think it's dependent 0:16:07.160 --> 0:16:09.120 on who you got right now, But I think he's 0:16:09.160 --> 0:16:11.160 worth picking up in a lot of plays. So certainly, 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:12.640 if you're in a two catcher league, go pick him 0:16:12.680 --> 0:16:13.120 up right away. 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:16.520 What about like Cad Horton, Zebbi Matthews, do any of 0:16:16.600 --> 0:16:18.960 those belonging there? And Ha, Zebbie just got hurt. 0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:22.400 Zebbie just got hurt. So him, I think it would 0:16:22.440 --> 0:16:25.040 be a little bit tougher depending on your team. Cad Horton, 0:16:25.200 --> 0:16:26.920 I've been kind of impressed with I think that there 0:16:26.960 --> 0:16:29.120 are some things he needs to work on. Still he's 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:31.640 not a fully finished product, but he's holding his own 0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:35.480 to this point. I think that I would prefer to 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:38.120 hold Horton over Matthews, especially with the injury. 0:16:38.240 --> 0:16:39.880 Okay, and there was some content and it wasn't even 0:16:39.920 --> 0:16:41.720 about neither one of them. My main point of this 0:16:41.880 --> 0:16:44.200 is like, how many prospects are really worth rostering as 0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:46.160 of someone that liked prospects and talking. That's all this 0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:48.680 experiment was. I feel like we maybe put more in. 0:16:49.120 --> 0:16:51.040 I think some people might be a little bit more discerning, 0:16:51.120 --> 0:16:55.640 but we put Wilson, Domingez, CAGs, Anthony Kurtz, Marcelo, and Horton. 0:16:55.920 --> 0:17:00.600 There's seven and one pitcher, So is that what painter? 0:17:02.320 --> 0:17:04.320 But he's not here. I don't think he's a must own. 0:17:04.440 --> 0:17:05.920 We don't know when the hell he's coming up, and 0:17:06.160 --> 0:17:08.680 that's you know, I would probably throw Bubba into this. 0:17:08.840 --> 0:17:10.920 I guess if we're having the deeper conversation of like, 0:17:11.160 --> 0:17:13.280 you just got to try to have him, so you 0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:16.120 got two pictures, you've got whatever the hell that ended 0:17:16.200 --> 0:17:19.320 up being five six hitters, that there's a decent amount 0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:21.480 but then if you know, if you start pushing the 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:24.960 envelope here, if you really pushed it, like I think 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:28.440 Jacob Wilson, CAGs and Anthony are the three that like 0:17:28.720 --> 0:17:30.440 would be at the very tippy top, and CAGs and 0:17:30.440 --> 0:17:33.120 Anthony because of the sky high potential and not enough 0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:36.160 time to tell us a story. Jacob Wilson has only 0:17:36.240 --> 0:17:38.320 really been the only service one Christian Campbell I could 0:17:38.320 --> 0:17:40.080 have put in there. Christian Campbell doesn't belong in it. 0:17:40.520 --> 0:17:44.239 It's a bigger discussion just for people to remember when 0:17:44.280 --> 0:17:46.800 you're making your moves of how many are really panning 0:17:46.880 --> 0:17:50.639 out and hold that like you can't come off of 0:17:50.720 --> 0:17:54.080 them range. Jacob Wilson's about it, truly about it, Like 0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:56.520 Caggs and Anthony are super fun. The rest of the 0:17:56.560 --> 0:17:59.840 guys have unfortunately kind of been failures or gets. You know, 0:18:00.000 --> 0:18:02.320 Logan Henderson comes up and he's gone and he's back 0:18:02.400 --> 0:18:05.679 down that you don't want to know site of your 0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:07.720 roster to me, yeah lol or exactly. I mean, the 0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:09.520 Dineback should blow it up soon. But there's only so 0:18:09.680 --> 0:18:12.240 many that really belong And I think if we push 0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:16.080 the envelope and we're a little bit more Picky. I 0:18:16.119 --> 0:18:19.560 think this would have been Wilson Cag's Anthony, maybe Kertz, 0:18:19.920 --> 0:18:21.640 and I'm not sure if anybody else would have really 0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:24.399 fallen in that range. But you know, everyone listening can 0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:27.000
