I see people getting caught up on yesterday's show. 9 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: People thought, oh, it's a Thursday, the light slate, maybe 10 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: i'll skip leading off. Well you shouldn't have because you 11 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 1: might have missed the show of the year. But you 12 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: missed it. You go back and watch, especially around that 13 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: you just got deleted.

Yeah, you, the Peanuts and 19 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: the Cracker Jacks are the are the naughty ones. You 20 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 1: are naughty. Welsh just made a common, easy mistake in 21 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: his brain. That's it, And did you the rest of you? 22 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: Mine's in the gutter, Mine's in the gutter. But anyway, 23 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: let's talk in a little baseball because we've got a 24 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,119 Speaker 1: lot to get to here on the program today, as 25 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: we always do, and let's start at the top here 26 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 1: because Natan Valdi Welsh, what an incredible run this guy's 27 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: been on. He was our number one trade target a 28 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: few weeks ago, and he just continues to pilot on 29 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: eleven eleven strikeouts, eight and two third scoreles innings. If 30 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: you look right now, I was just peeping the MLB 31 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 1: ERA leaders, and I'm sure this is the grouping that 32 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 1: you had going into the season as we look into 33 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: mid May. Here, this is the grouping of people who 34 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: have sub two eras you ready for this, Sonny Gray 35 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 1: with a one three five, I'm sure we all had that, 36 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: Edward Rodriguez one five to seven. Sure we all have 37 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: that Alex Cobb, who were going to talk about in 38 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: a second, and Bryce Elder at one point seven to four. 39 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: Also Seane McLanahan justin Steele, and then if you look 40 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: a little bit past there, Nathany Evaldi at two point 41 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: seven zero. But if you throw out those first couple 42 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: of rocky starts where things just really bad luck, he 43 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: would be right there in this mix. And this is 44 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: why it's so important Welsh. When you you know, deep 45 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: stats sometimes get a little confusing and overwhelming. But when 46 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: you see a guy who's ERA is high, and you 47 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: see that FIP and that x FIP and that XCRA 48 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: are all significantly lower, you buy, buy. 49 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 2: Buy. It actually really hurts me because we didn't like 50 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 2: go through all the names. But when you had me 51 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 2: give an example for our betting Pros video out there 52 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 2: of ladder betting, I promise you I looked at Nateaniyivaldi 53 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 2: because he can get strikeouts in there, but I just 54 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: decided Darvish made a little bit more sense by the way. 55 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 2: It didn't hit on the ladder, but it did hit 56 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: the first two legs, which is like the most important 57 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: of it. But Ivaldi would have been like a prime 58 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 2: example of that. His K percentage is the highest of 59 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 2: his career by like a decent margin two Only one 60 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 2: time has he ever had it over twenty six percent. 61 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 2: He's a twenty seven percent. He's paired that with the 62 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 2: lowest walk percentage of his career. He's expected and actual 63 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 2: era are in the same general area. He's giving up 64 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 2: the lowest barrels of his career. I mean, there's something 65 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 2: to be said about this team context of what's going 66 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 2: on with the Texas Rangers. He is a total secret 67 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: little a sitting back there, and it's been a big benefit. 68 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 2: We did talk about him like at least over the 69 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 2: last month and a month ago, so you know. 70 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: I tried, like wells, I tried like hell to get him. 71 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: I could not pry him away after the first like 72 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: two leagues. I was trying so hard. I throughout like 73 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: the real good trade offers too, I thought Riovaldi. But 74 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: both of those people they must watch the show that 75 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: can only and they're sitting at the top right now. 76 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: The Texas Rangers. They are twenty three and fourteen. They're 77 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: head of the Houston Extro's ahead of the Angels, ahead 78 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: of Seattle, and of course everyone's ahead of Oakland because 79 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: that's just well that's Oakland. But an incredible, incredible run 80 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: here to open up the season for Nathan E Valdi, 81 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: there's no doubt about that. Alex Cobb has been pretty 82 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: amazing too. We could talk about Amy for a second. 83 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: Not too shabby as well. Cobb seven and a third 84 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: shot of things. His era's at one seventy he's in 85 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: that group. Also, let's talk a little bit about Mason 86 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: Miller on the fifteen day Injured list. He's a we 87 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: did go on the IL. Now we don't know how 88 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: long he's gonna be out because we heard that the 89 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: MRI was clear. But obviously, as I told you yesterday, 90 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 1: he still got pain. So we're looking for that timetable. 91 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: They say, oh, relatively soon, But I'm not listening to 92 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: that relatively soon nonsense. I'm thinking, once again, if you've 93 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 1: got a prime pitching prospect and a team that's going nowhere, 94 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: there's absolutely no reason to rush this kid. I would 95 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: be surprised if we saw him May. I think you're 96 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: looking more like mid to late June. What are your 97 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: thoughts on Mason Miller's potential return now that he's officially 98 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: on the IL. 99 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 2: I think it's June, but I don't think it's late June. 100 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: I think like a month could be the territory of 101 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 2: this whole thing, So I would be looking at mid May. 102 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 2: But again, this is what I said, before you got 103 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 2: an IL. You're great. You're only in a tricky spot 104 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 2: if you're in these no IL league, if you're in 105 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 2: like an NBC league that you have to sit, you're 106 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 2: probably gonna have to sit a month, and he is 107 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 2: worth doing that. He's worth sitting for the month because 108 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 2: I want to say that there's only like a finite 109 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,359 Speaker 2: amount of these guys. But what is buried and I 110 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 2: put on the sheet. But let's just talk about it now, Joe, 111 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 2: because it is as big of it's a bigger piece 112 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 2: of news than anything we're talking about. It is URI 113 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 2: pres Day and this is really one of the biggest 114 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 2: things out here. So when you want to talk about 115 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 2: prospect pitching, the amount of fab and amount of the 116 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 2: cost of what URI is going to come out from 117 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 2: this weekend, especially this matchup. This matchup is killer. It's 118 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 2: going to be in the same lines of what happened 119 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 2: with Mason Miller, and you're not gonna want to just 120 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: give up. So Mason Miller, I think it's about a month. 121 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 2: I think he'll be okay. I think this will actually 122 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 2: line him up as long as a recovery comes okay 123 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:37,840 Speaker 2: to being able to kind of finish out the year, 124 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 2: because he wasn't gonna be able to put a whole 125 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 2: bunch of innings in. So I think you can hold tight. 126 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 2: But Joe Piezapia. This is jury presday, man, this is 127 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 2: what do we do. 128 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: I mean, look, look, I wanted to give the flowers 129 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: to the Valdi's and the Cobs because they those guys 130 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: don't get enough attention. Now we talk about Gallonist writer 131 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: and you know, Garrit Cole and all the usual suspects 132 00:05:58,200 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: when it comes to pitching. But there's been some guys 133 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: getting and we continue to, you know, take our shots 134 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 1: at the White Sox guys, and take our shots at 135 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: you know, Jacob de Gram and all these other pitchers 136 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: that are constantly either injured or disappointing. So I wanted 137 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: to I want to give some love too. 138 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 2: Well, you're you're a great wing man. I'll take the 139 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: bell of the ball and you take the ball. Thank 140 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 2: you for picking up the rents. 141 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: Well, let's see if Euriy Perez puts out today. That's 142 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: what we're gonna see today. So six years so far 143 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: that he uh is pitched in the minor leagues again 144 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 1: at double A. So he's making the jump from double 145 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: A to triple A. Thirty one innings, two point three 146 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: two e ra a, forty two strikeouts and thirty one 147 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: innings just nine walks at point eighty one whip for 148 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: Euri Perez, So it's a very exciting time to be 149 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: live for Perez. Is gonna be fascinating to see what 150 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: it looks like as we you know, on the weekend, 151 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: especially he's facing the reds, which means there's a good 152 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 1: chance that starts gonna look pretty good. He's at home, 153 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: a lot of positive things trending in his direction. You're 154 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: gonna see, We're he's gonna come up later on the show. 155 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: And the betting stuff too, because he's got a line 156 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: of four and a half strikeouts of the over today, 157 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: so I'm all over that piece. Also before we get 158 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: to the injuries Welsh, because that's obviously there's a lot 159 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: of them today, a lot of injury notes as we 160 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: had to the weekend, rehab assignments, all this stuff. A 161 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: fan of the show, friend of the show, Chris Evans, 162 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,679 Speaker 1: who listens to the show all the time, loves the show. 163 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: Can't it enough of Joey p on the Welsh. Not 164 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: that Chris Evans, it's a different Chris Evans, but not 165 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: a letter Chris Eppens, mind you.

Look, why is 191 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: everybody he's been good? 192 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 2: Like? 193 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: What are we worried about here? I don't understand. 194 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 2: I like the rate. Do you remember that that website 195 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 2: Hot or Not? That he's like way back, like you 196 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 2: put a photo up and you know you're masochistic, put 197 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 2: your photo up and then you know people just tear 198 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 2: you apart. I feel like that's what he's asking because 199 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 2: I don't know what the rate would be here, But 200 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 2: I mean i'd probably give Vinnie like a he's like 201 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 2: a five on the Hot or Not scale show. 202 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: I think he's right in the middle for you. I mean, look, 203 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 1: if you look at the numbers, that not bad. 204 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 2: I mean, oh, we were just talking about hot or not. 205 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 2: He's not very hot. N he's not very hot right now, but. 206 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: He's a Look, he's I would say a mid. He's 207 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 1: a good friend fantasy first, not great, but good. He's 208 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: not well, who do we say that was mid yesterday? 209 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: I say, I can't remember now, Oh, oh, Alex Bregman. 210 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 1: Maybe he's not quite. I guess he's in that same tier. 211 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 1: I guess after all we started looking at the numbers. 212 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: They're closer than you'd think. 213 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 2: But he has been fine. He has been fine. Seven homers, 214 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 2: his average is ticked back up into the two. 215 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have those ebbs and flows. 216 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 2: The problem though, And this was the thing we knew 217 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 2: in the season, and I got stuff wrong on the inverse, 218 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 2: like I wasn't like crazy about Vinnie, and I like 219 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 2: Joseah Bray, you that didn't look good. Those run in 220 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 2: RBI numbers are never gonna look good for Vinnie. There's 221 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 2: just not enough base runners and not enough guys in 222 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 2: scoring positions. So Vinnie's gonna be one of those guys 223 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 2: that's gonna hit thirty homers, good batting average, but he's 224 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 2: not have like eighty run eighty RBI. So yeah, I 225 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 2: don't I don't know what we're talking about here. He's fine, 226 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 2: He's totally fine. 227 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: I think he's frustrating head to head because you're gonna 228 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: have some downturns. But in season long, Rodo just said 229 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: it and forget it. Here's one for Michael C. Speaking 230 00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: of hot or not, what would you all do with 231 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: Jose Bray when Oscar Andandez. I'm holding to Oscar, but 232 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: I'm looking elsewhere for Jose and bra That's yeah, concert, 233 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: there you go, there you go. You can't get advice 234 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: like that anywhere else. Let's talk about injuries here. Jose L. 235 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: Tubay will begin his minor leg minor league rehab assignment 236 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: today at Triple A, so that's very exciting. Uh. The 237 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: Dodgers activated Jade Martinez, which is probably less exciting. So 238 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 1: if someone dropped him, you could speculate, but I'm not 239 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: holding out to my breath at all. Wander Franco, Uh, 240 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: yesterday had some neck issues. He says he's gonna play today, 241 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: So just keep an eye out in those daily transaction 242 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: leagues and daily line up leagues. T J. Friedel let's 243 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: get undergo an MRI after being removed from Thursday's game 244 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: with side soreness. So Welsh, does this start to open up? 245 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: Mister Christian and Carnots. 246 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 2: And Jack Nicholson, That's what I'm doing right now.

It's super easy. You take 249 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 2: Nixon Zel and you put him in the outfield. He 250 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 2: can replace TJ. Friedel. Then what you do is you 251 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 2: bring up Christian and Carnacion Strand and you put him 252 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 2: over at third base. 253 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: But then you moved to Steer to first. 254 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 2: Ye, Steer has been playing first.

So after all that, I love your 300 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: conspiracy theory about the Reds to you. Look, now's the time, 301 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,199 Speaker 1: even re draft leagues, I'd be adding Ellie Della Cruz 302 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: now just why why not like Adam for a buck? 303 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 1: Stick them on the bench. What hap? 304 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 2: Ellie's on another level right now, and ultimately Ces is 305 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 2: going to play first for this team. This is what 306 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 2: he did in spring when I saw him. Ellie's been 307 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 2: playing third base in Triple A. He'll be the third 308 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 2: baseman and Matt McClain will be the shorts up. That 309 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 2: will be the setup. But Ces could play third right now. 310 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 2: I guess it also leaves an opportunity if the team 311 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 2: really wanted to say screw it and they wanted Ellie 312 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 2: to be that third baseman, they could just bring up 313 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 2: Ellie and he could beat Cees either way. The TJ. 314 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 2: Friedles stuff opens up an opportunity for them to finally 315 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 2: let loose one of Yeah, I mean, that might be 316 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 2: the hottest Triple A team in baseball right now, with 317 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 2: the amount of prospects that are ready to become to 318 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: the majors. 319 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go.

Maybe we can know whatever whatever 335 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: the stretchy guy had, Maybe we can get that for 336 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: Carlos Rodon because Richard's thank you the stretchy guy. You 337 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: like that he threw from flat ground today or is 338 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: going to? I should say, so, we'll see how that goes. 339 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 2: Another type say what other type of ground? But I 340 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 2: guess I could be on the mound, like when I 341 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 2: hear that it's such a stupid thing like he threw 342 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 2: from flat ground, So it's like he just could like throw, 343 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 2: he could tell us to me through for the mound 344 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: and just say he threw otherwise, I don't know. 345 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 1: That's like a little It's really concerning. And this investment 346 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: that the Yankees maide in Rodin is even more concerning 347 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 1: at this point. And I really thought this was smart 348 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: by them. I was like, hey, maybe this guy's turned 349 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 1: a corner. Last year was terrific for Sam, for Cisco. 350 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: Like you knew it was never gonna be perfect. There's 351 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: gonna be some miss time here and there. But the 352 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: fact that we're in, you know, the twelfth of May 353 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: and he hasn't thrown a pitch yet, that's disturbing. Luis 354 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: Severino less disturbing. We'll make another rehab start on Tuesday. 355 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: So if he makes another rehab start Tuesday and the 356 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: ups evenings through about five, which is the expectation, I 357 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: think the last one he had three and change, I 358 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: would imagine maybe by the weekend you get him back, 359 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: if not the following week. So Seva Reno's getting close again. 360 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: If someone dropped him, or if you're looking for pitching, 361 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: maybe go out there acquire him get a little ahead 362 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: of the game. Liam Hendricks was behind the game yesterday. 363 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 1: So good in his first outing, not so good yesterday, 364 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: allowed four runs, only recorded two outs yesterday in the rehab. 365 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: But again, oftentimes we see these guys in spring trading. 366 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 1: They look good for a couple outings, then they have 367 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: a blow uper outing or two, and then they're back 368 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 1: on track. It's just part of getting ready. Quote unquote, 369 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: Corey Seeger's getting ready. He had a two run double 370 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: yesterday in his minor league rehab assignment at Double A. 371 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: Frisco Raised manager Kevin Cash said that Tyler Glass now 372 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: will make a minor league rehab start also on Tuesday. 373 00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 2: He's still on schedule, and then he's gonna make one more. 374 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 2: So just pointing out to everybody, I actually think he 375 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 2: I thought I saw he was gonna pitch today and 376 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 2: then pitch next week. But either way, he's gonna have 377 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 2: two more rehab assignments, and as long as we don't 378 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 2: have another incident like we just had, then he's gonna 379 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 2: come back up to the majors. 380 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: I love the incidents. Let's take a quick break in 381 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: the action and tell you about Fanimal. I love live events. 382 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: But I hate buying tickets, the hidden fees they suck. 383 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: It's like paying for a whole other person who's not 384 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 1: even there to be there with you at the event, 385 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: and customer service is terrible and coordinating with friends is 386 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: a nightmare. But then I discovered fanimal and fannamal has 387 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: tickets to everything concerts, festivals, football, basketball, you name it, 388 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: and Major League Baseball. And plus there's no fees. The 389 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: price you see is actually the price you pay. What 390 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: a concept? You heard it here first. Fanimal is the 391 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: cheapest place on the internet to get MLB tickets. And 392 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: we've all experienced how painful it is to coordinate going 393 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: to events with friends, and I always end up fronting 394 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: a bunch of money and then chasing down the friends 395 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: to get reimbursed, and if they flake, I'm stuck with 396 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: the whole bill. But animals patentent group purchase makes it 397 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: easy to split payments with your friends, so nobody's left 398 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: holding the bag and you don't have to commit until 399 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 1: your friends do. So just pick the seats, pick how 400 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: many tickets you want to pay for yourself, and then 401 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 1: send the link to your friends and when you join 402 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: your group, everyone gets started. Separately, and your tickets are 403 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: secured so you can stack cash by inviting friends ten 404 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: bucks every time someone joins your group catching baby. So 405 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: fanomal it has amazing customer service to don't take my 406 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 1: word for it.

And now back to the action. Here's a 412 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 1: really good question from Dylan Love. Would you drop Toash 413 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: Bradley to stash cees enough pitching? I think I would. 414 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I will. I don't know if I talked about 415 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 2: this and if I talked about it here at all, 416 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 2: but like I finally did some of that research, did 417 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 2: it with Eno and DVR on. 418 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,120 Speaker 1: Todds about it yesterday? 419 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was speculating on some stuff and sure enough, 420 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 2: So what I ended up doing is I went and 421 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 2: saw his last start in the majors and I compared 422 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 2: it to both of his minor league starts, and they 423 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 2: are messing with Todd Bradley. They've clearly have him doing 424 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 2: other stuff. Here's what's happening. Fastball percentage is overtaking the cutter. 425 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 2: He threw his cutter more than anything in the majors. 426 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 2: That's dropped from around forty six percent down to around 427 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,400 Speaker 2: thirty percent in the majors. They've also essentially told him 428 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 2: to scrap his curveball, and ENO backed this all up 429 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 2: by stuff plus numbers saying that the fastball graded higher 430 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,880 Speaker 2: than the cutter, which is why he's switching there, and 431 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 2: the curve was the lowest graded on stuff plus. It's 432 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,439 Speaker 2: a very analytically driven team. So the whole point of 433 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 2: this is to say, like he's been having struggles in 434 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 2: the miners and everyone's wondering why. It's because they have 435 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 2: him kind of changing up his ript and I think 436 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 2: that is causing a lot of this. And you know, 437 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 2: sometimes it doesn't matter the results. They want this change. Plus, 438 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 2: they haven't even put him on the five day rotation 439 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 2: yet he's still in a six day rotation. 440 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,120 Speaker 1: Here's the wacky thing about that too, which I don't understand. 441 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: If I know the cutter. They'll say that sometimes that 442 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: puts more stress on the arm, that pitch as well. 443 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: That's one of those things. So I can understand if 444 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: they wanted him to back off of it while they were, 445 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: you know, trying to catch him up to that five 446 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: man rotation. This is this is where we started to 447 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: speculate on it, I think yesterday, the day before. And 448 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: if you know, if that's the case, and you know 449 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 1: they're going to bring him back and then let him 450 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: use the cutter more, that would make sense. But if 451 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: he's getting crappy results, changing the repertoire, why would you 452 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: want to do that to it? Why would you want 453 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 1: to do that? Why would you want to do that 454 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: to a kid who is just starting to show you 455 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: that he's ready for the big leagues. Comes up, he 456 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: looks great in triple A, comes up to the big leagues, 457 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: smoking everybody, and then you're changing things up and next 458 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: thing you know, now the results are bad. I don't know. 459 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,640 Speaker 2: I mean it's computer nerd stuff. It's the analytics said 460 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 2: they need him to be like nerds, and they want 461 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 2: this pitch over here to kind of be a lot like. 462 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 1: He was throwing his curve ball cutter. 463 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,880 Speaker 2: His curve all was like thirteen percent of the time 464 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 2: in that last major league start. I think he's throwing 465 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 2: one or two of them in the miners in both starts. 466 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 1: Well, I believe here. I've I've written down in my 467 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: diary about the cutter. 468 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 2: Oh everybody, it's the Ray's analytical team. Please talk. 469 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:21,880 Speaker 1: Yeah right, I once threw a baseball in nineteen ninety seven. 470 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: It was very exhilarating, but I've decided it was very dangerous. 471 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 1: So instead I'm just going to analyze the rest of 472 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: them and figure it out. But he says here that 473 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: the cutter might be a pitching to back off. He 474 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: through at sixty four point two percent of the time, 475 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 1: and perhaps and maybe maybe a fifty seven the time 476 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: will be a little bit better situation. I think perhaps, 477 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,159 Speaker 1: So we'll continue to look into that and continue to 478 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: study the analytics of all that. I'm like, I'm like 479 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 1: carat top. I've just got props everywhere on this desk 480 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 1: at all time. 481 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 2: To you do. I'm always amazing. Where's the crown? Do 482 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 2: you have the crown? 483 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:57,439 Speaker 1: Yeah? I've got the crown here because we don't have 484 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: that sponsor anymore. So I never wear the crown, but 485 00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 1: I the king. 486 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 2: Of keeping it real now within hands reach. 487 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to have a couple of things here 488 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: around just because you never know, you never know what's 489 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: gonna happen. Hopefully we do know what happens with Tyder 490 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 1: Glastow when things get better. Max Scherzer is not going 491 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: to start today against the Nationals. Get out of town. Well, 492 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm shocked. I can't believe this. I mean, 493 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: this is just so shocking. This is going in a 494 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: bad direction fast for the New York Mets. I'm telling 495 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: you right now. So Tyler McGill starting today instead, they 496 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: had to start Peterson and those guys have not been good. 497 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: It's been very unfortunate. I know Carrasco's working his way back, 498 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: but that's not the answer. The Mets are kind of 499 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: hanging on by a thread here. And I told you 500 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: before the show something that I was looking on betting 501 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: pros this morning, which is after the Max Freed entry. 502 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,359 Speaker 1: I was putting together the sports Grid TV stuff because 503 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: I do the Sunday Baseball show there for two hours 504 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: on Sunday mornings, and I was looking at some of 505 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: the lines and look at some of the stuff, and 506 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:53,440 Speaker 1: it occurred to me, I was like, Wow, Max Free's 507 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: gonna miss two months. So what does that mean here? 508 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: When the Mets are terrible, there's no value on the 509 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: Braves or like minus four hundred to win the division. 510 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: I know the Phillies just lost a closer, but still 511 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: they've got some depth there, these gut guys that can 512 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,679 Speaker 1: fill that role. The Phillies are ten to one to 513 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: win that division. They're starting to look like a really 514 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 1: interesting play potentially. What do you think of the Phillies 515 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: maybe coming on here, especially with Bryce Harper back so early? 516 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 2: How far how far back are they? What does the 517 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 2: division record look like right now? 518 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 1: Because I will to check on that right now, we're 519 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 1: super sneaky play well, right now, the Phillies are an 520 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 1: eighteen win team. They are seven games back, but they're 521 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: only they're they're they're tied with the Mets. Basically they're 522 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 1: in like a half game tie because that's one more game. 523 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: But again, I can't I can't knock the Phillies for 524 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: what their record is because they played six weeks without 525 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: Bryce Harper. So now that Harper's back already, this kind 526 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,199 Speaker 1: of changes the calculus for me. The Phillies. Now our 527 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: Noah's got a big start today, He's got a kicking. 528 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 2: And that is what I was just waiting to say, Joe. 529 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 2: It's like the air Aaron Nola and his curveball not 530 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 2: being what it was and him not being himself. That's key. 531 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 2: They took Matt Strom off put him in the bullpen, 532 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 2: which makes a bullpen better. War is going to be 533 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 2: coming back soon. What does he look like? So I 534 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,679 Speaker 2: think there's a couple of key components they need to 535 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 2: get going. But they got that offense rolling. I mean, 536 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 2: Bryce and Stott's been horrible as of recent. He was 537 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 2: one of those guys that was a pick up. But 538 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 2: offense is going. If Aaron Nola can get right, maybe 539 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 2: this is another one of those teams us to get 540 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 2: out there, be a little bit aggressive, get another guy 541 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 2: in the rotation. They're totally going to take this and 542 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 2: take that comment off the screen. 543 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 1: By the way, Oh, I didn't even realized it was 544 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 1: still there. It's not very nice when I was wearing 545 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: my glasses. That's why that's what happened there anyway, And uh, look, analytics, 546 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,879 Speaker 1: by the way, for the p doesn't Crackerjack. Analytics have 547 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 1: their place. But at a certain point, these are people 548 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: and they're athletes, and we start to shake with their 549 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 1: confidence of what they do. And here's the thing, So 550 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: Todge Brady would be love Todge Bradley. Everything about Todge 551 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: Bradley's great. He's our number one pitching prospect. Everything's been fantastic, 552 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: and then we bring him up. But he's great in 553 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: the major leagues, So why are we tinkering with it? 554 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 1: That's the that's the problem I have. It's like, if 555 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 1: you can find somebody that's struggling, that's where the analytics 556 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,360 Speaker 1: come in to help them do better. But when somebody's 557 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: already great or doing really well, what are we trying 558 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:07,919 Speaker 1: to do except maybe change this guy's confidence. And now 559 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 1: with guys in his head, there's still people. So the 560 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 1: analytics do matter with one hundred percent, and the way 561 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,199 Speaker 1: you play, the analytics absolutely do make an impact. But 562 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, sometimes, especially with young players, 563 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 1: it's a very dangerous game to play because when you 564 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,360 Speaker 1: knock the confidence down, the next thing you know, you've 565 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,400 Speaker 1: got a top prospect who's trying to do all these 566 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: different things. Now, meanwhile, he got to be a top 567 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 1: prospect because of the way he did things. And I'm 568 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: not saying you can't improve, of course, you can same 569 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 1: thing happens in the NFL. There's certain things. You know, 570 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: when the quarterback comes in the NFL, you know, you 571 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 1: want to try to get rid of the ball quicker. 572 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: You want to work on the footwork, you want to 573 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: look at understand the reads, defenses, the thing you want 574 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 1: to try and analytically. There's things physically that you can 575 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: do better. But Cheese man like, sometimes I think we 576 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 1: we'd overdo it, That's all I'm saying. Sometimes I think I. 577 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 2: Think it's a blend. I think there's a blend. I 578 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 2: think it's tough when they want guys to throw a 579 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 2: different type of pitch or or full on scrap to 580 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 2: add that's not necessarily the case here. I think it is. 581 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 2: It is tough with what they're doing, but I think 582 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 2: they saw the road ahead and they saw the pitch 583 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 2: mix needed to be adjusted. I mean, Bryce Miller just 584 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 2: talked about this, like his numbers. Why he struggled in 585 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 2: double A was because the team told him just throw strikes, 586 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 2: just throw strikes and fastballs right now, and it wasn't 587 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 2: allowing him to really kind of generate both of what 588 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 2: that sweeper and actually what he labels as a curveball 589 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 2: and and he was getting beat up and then but 590 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 2: then the opposite of that is look at the success 591 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,919 Speaker 2: he's had at the Majors for what they did in 592 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 2: double A of just having him really struggle. So it's 593 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 2: a it's a fine line between all of it. Hopefully 594 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,719 Speaker 2: the Rays have a great track record. Hopefully it's what 595 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 2: works out. But coming back to it, Taj doesn't look 596 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 2: like he's coming up in the next two or three. 597 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: Weeks, so he doesn't it's probably worthwhile getting a guy 598 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:53,679 Speaker 1: like THEE was the longest answer ever to Trent Fleming. 599 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: By the way, he wants us Doe to an entire 600 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: show as the Ray's analytics team and Jack Nicholson. So 601 00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: there you go, so that maybe next week we could 602 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 1: do that. Tyler Molly won't be doing much of anything 603 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: for this year and the rest of next year, probably 604 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: most of it. Tyler Molly will have Tommy John surgery 605 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: this week, so that's very sad. Uh. Here's a Joe's 606 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 1: Tough Guys. We got to get a graphic for Joe's 607 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: Tough Guys. I don't know what that is, but I 608 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 1: will accept any really good photoshop of what will be 609 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: appropriate for Joe's tough guys. 610 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 2: Maybe how about the how about the girl scout addressed as. 611 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 1: Well? Maybe it's like a picture of me is a 612 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: boxer getting the crapp be eat at of me or 613 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 1: something like that, or you know, it's like Rocky or 614 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: something something like. 615 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 2: You know, I like that image of Mike Tyson's punch 616 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 2: out with the That's what I was thinking, and then 617 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 2: the little guy at the bottom that would be you. Yeah, 618 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 2: and then head on the that's me. 619 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: So somebody sends that to me, we'll make it a 620 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 1: graphic for next week's show.

I'm gonna 651 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 2: go on the opposite Aaron Judge can turn that back 652 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 2: around against a total who for the Rais today Fantasy 653 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,640 Speaker 2: score eight and a half, Jordon Alvarez Fantasy score eight 654 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 2: and a half. And I'm gonna do the hater thing. 655 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 2: James Paxton is returning his strikeout numbers at five. I 656 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 2: will take the under. I'm not feeling James Packton, similar 657 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 2: to how I wasn't feeling Kyle right. How far will 658 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 2: the pitches go, how successful? How many walks is he 659 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 2: gonna have? He us a strikeout pitcher, so it's possible 660 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 2: he could blow pass this, but first start back, I'm 661 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 2: gonna go with the under on strikeouts for James Paxton's people. 662 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 1: Can people on the live when they watch it back, 663 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: can they see all the comments. 664 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 2: Of people like yes, I have that selected? Yeah? 665 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: Oh good, because even today some really good comments, really 666 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: funny stuff in there. For me, it's Drew Smiley four 667 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: and a half over on the pitcher strikeouts going against 668 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: the Twinkies, Martin Perez against the oaklan A's nobody strikes 669 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 1: out more than them. I know Martin Perez is exactly 670 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: show heyl Tony that's okay. Ye four and a half 671 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: is a tiny number you just gotta get to five, Okay, 672 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 1: Mike Trout seven and a half hitter Fantasy score against Cleveland, 673 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: and they're young pitching. I'm gonna go take that little 674 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 1: number as well. When it comes to betting today, here's 675 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: my parlay of the day, Eury Perez four and a half. 676 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: I would bet that separately anyway. I'd bet all three 677 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: of these separately anyway, just in case. Then you then 678 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: you push, you make your money back. So if you 679 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: put a unit on each of these things individually, and 680 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 1: then a unit on them as a trio, you're gonna 681 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: get five to one odds on it. So Ury Perez 682 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: four and a half over, Drew Smiley four and a 683 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: half k's over, Martin Perez four and a half k's over. 684 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: Bet them individually, right, But if you go ahead and 685 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: even throw one unit on them as a parlay, you're 686 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: getting five to one. So there you go. So you're 687 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: still gonna if you get two out of three, it's 688 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 1: a push for a day and you're good. Mike Trout 689 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 1: over on the half RBIs you're getting plus one seventy 690 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: on that number. That's a huge number. Eury Perez. We 691 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: talked about again the four and a half. You're getting 692 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: minus one oh nine Corbyn burn six and a half strikeouts. 693 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: I struggled with this one, but I'm gonna lean the other. 694 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 2: You pick him every single start, you know. 695 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: I'm waiting for it to turn around. And then Drew 696 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: Smiley too. The other one too is we have an 697 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: eight and a half today which is Benzer Strider against Toronto, 698 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 1: and I desperately want to go the under, but I'm 699 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: just leaving it alone. Just leaving it alone, Welsh, What 700 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: are you looking for today when it comes to the 701 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 1: betting market. 702 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't touch that either though. By the way, 703 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 2: in your parlay, I like the Drew Smiley and I 704 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 2: like Eury Perez. Those are two I don't love Martin Perez. 705 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 2: Euri Priz is one of mine. It's minus one thirty 706 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 2: one thing when talking about him earlier over his last 707 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 2: two starts. This is obviously in the minors, but twenty 708 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 2: strikeouts in his last two starts. So Euri pres is 709 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 2: a big strikeout pitcher. He's got a great relationship with 710 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 2: Sandy al Contra, who broke the news to him big 711 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 2: change up, fastball, slider, red strikeout, a whole bunch This 712 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 2: is a pretty easy number. It's juic stuff at like 713 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 2: one thirty. But I'm playing it. I'm going to play 714 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 2: it as a solo and would love to pair it, 715 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 2: like you said, with stuff. My other two bets playing 716 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 2: some of my first five team total runs. So this 717 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 2: is teams to score this mini runs through the first 718 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 2: five innings. My two favorites today Houston through the first 719 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 2: five score two and a half. This is up against 720 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,479 Speaker 2: Michael Kopek all but two starts this year. He has 721 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 2: given up far more than three runs in the first 722 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 2: five and I'm gonna go with Saint Louis. 723 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 1: Is that right? 724 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 2: Saint Louis first five team total run two and a half. 725 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 2: I have to go back through that, but those are 726 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 2: my I'm trying to remember why you're right. 727 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: So here's our parlay. 728 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 2: Oh, James Paxson, That's why that's all. Yeah, Yes, I'm 729 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 2: going up against James Paxson team total two and a half. 730 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 2: That was my logic. 731 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: Thank you in that game. Today's party of the Day 732 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 1: from the collective leading off team. I took Drew Smiley 733 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: in the four and a half case over minus one eighteen. 734 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: Mike Mayer Mariners money line minus one twenty. Kelly Kirby, 735 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 1: our friend the Wonky Penguin took the Braves minus one 736 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: and a half at plus one oh five and the 737 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: Welsh Braves on the money line minus one sixty first 738 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: five again the first five. But so he put all 739 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,719 Speaker 1: those things together, you get plus oney twenty eight, so 740 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: ten to one on that. If you play those four 741 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: things together.

Love the Strider as much today as I 758 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: do because of the price on the road. There's a 759 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: lot of issues there. Sunny Grade at ten point eight 760 00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: I do like, and Drew Smiley at nine point eight two. 761 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: Typically I stay away from the games where it's two 762 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: pitchers going against each other because the four outcomes. But 763 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: I think way you're looking under in that game stacks 764 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: today Saint Louis as Welsh was touching on against Pax 765 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: in Houston Philly, Texas.

Obviously we are getting to a 772 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: point here where. 773 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 2: You're getting close close, So I'm at nine for yesterday. 774 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: Primetime is still at the top.
