It's 0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:19.239 me Joey Paijo, Pi's a pea. That of course is 0:00:19.239 --> 0:00:21.919 the Welsh and it's you, my people, the Peanuts, the 0:00:21.920 --> 0:00:25.160 Cracker Jacks. I see people getting caught up on yesterday's show. 0:00:25.160 --> 0:00:29.200 People thought, oh, it's a Thursday, the light slate, maybe 0:00:29.200 --> 0:00:31.760 i'll skip leading off. Well you shouldn't have because you 0:00:31.840 --> 0:00:33.320 might have missed the show of the year. But you 0:00:33.560 --> 0:00:36.040 missed it. You go back and watch, especially around that 0:00:36.280 --> 0:00:40.760 you just got deleted. Well, I'm just happy to see 0:00:40.760 --> 0:00:44.159 you here today after yesterday. That's all. It's good to 0:00:44.159 --> 0:00:44.400 see you. 0:00:44.600 --> 0:00:47.239 I'm gonna point back out though, that of all the 0:00:47.320 --> 0:00:50.280 people that were okay, it was actually me, it's all you. 0:00:50.720 --> 0:00:54.040 That should be absolutely true. Yeah, you, the Peanuts and 0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:57.040 the Cracker Jacks are the are the naughty ones. You 0:00:57.080 --> 0:01:01.200 are naughty. Welsh just made a common, easy mistake in 0:01:01.280 --> 0:01:04.240 his brain. That's it, And did you the rest of you? 0:01:05.120 --> 0:01:07.440 Mine's in the gutter, Mine's in the gutter. But anyway, 0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:09.240 let's talk in a little baseball because we've got a 0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:11.119 lot to get to here on the program today, as 0:01:11.120 --> 0:01:14.000 we always do, and let's start at the top here 0:01:14.040 --> 0:01:19.400 because Natan Valdi Welsh, what an incredible run this guy's 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:21.640 been on. He was our number one trade target a 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:24.920 few weeks ago, and he just continues to pilot on 0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:29.440 eleven eleven strikeouts, eight and two third scoreles innings. If 0:01:29.480 --> 0:01:32.200 you look right now, I was just peeping the MLB 0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:35.319 ERA leaders, and I'm sure this is the grouping that 0:01:35.360 --> 0:01:37.760 you had going into the season as we look into 0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:40.760 mid May. Here, this is the grouping of people who 0:01:40.840 --> 0:01:44.080 have sub two eras you ready for this, Sonny Gray 0:01:44.360 --> 0:01:45.959 with a one three five, I'm sure we all had that, 0:01:46.520 --> 0:01:48.920 Edward Rodriguez one five to seven. Sure we all have 0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:51.320 that Alex Cobb, who were going to talk about in 0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:55.760 a second, and Bryce Elder at one point seven to four. 0:01:55.840 --> 0:01:59.040 Also Seane McLanahan justin Steele, and then if you look 0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:01.600 a little bit past there, Nathany Evaldi at two point 0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:04.120 seven zero. But if you throw out those first couple 0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:07.040 of rocky starts where things just really bad luck, he 0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:09.080 would be right there in this mix. And this is 0:02:09.080 --> 0:02:11.320 why it's so important Welsh. When you you know, deep 0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:14.480 stats sometimes get a little confusing and overwhelming. But when 0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:16.360 you see a guy who's ERA is high, and you 0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:18.600 see that FIP and that x FIP and that XCRA 0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:21.280 are all significantly lower, you buy, buy. 0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:25.840 Buy. It actually really hurts me because we didn't like 0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:27.360 go through all the names. But when you had me 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:30.359 give an example for our betting Pros video out there 0:02:30.400 --> 0:02:33.280 of ladder betting, I promise you I looked at Nateaniyivaldi 0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:35.840 because he can get strikeouts in there, but I just 0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:38.440 decided Darvish made a little bit more sense by the way. 0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:40.760 It didn't hit on the ladder, but it did hit 0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:43.000 the first two legs, which is like the most important 0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:45.120 of it. But Ivaldi would have been like a prime 0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:48.160 example of that. His K percentage is the highest of 0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:50.919 his career by like a decent margin two Only one 0:02:50.919 --> 0:02:52.920 time has he ever had it over twenty six percent. 0:02:53.160 --> 0:02:55.960 He's a twenty seven percent. He's paired that with the 0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:59.920 lowest walk percentage of his career. He's expected and actual 0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:02.680 era are in the same general area. He's giving up 0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:05.960 the lowest barrels of his career. I mean, there's something 0:03:06.000 --> 0:03:08.480 to be said about this team context of what's going 0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:12.280 on with the Texas Rangers. He is a total secret 0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:15.560 little a sitting back there, and it's been a big benefit. 0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:18.120 We did talk about him like at least over the 0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:20.280 last month and a month ago, so you know. 0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:23.160 I tried, like wells, I tried like hell to get him. 0:03:23.160 --> 0:03:25.040 I could not pry him away after the first like 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:27.280 two leagues. I was trying so hard. I throughout like 0:03:27.360 --> 0:03:31.040 the real good trade offers too, I thought Riovaldi. But 0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:33.040 both of those people they must watch the show that 0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:34.840 can only and they're sitting at the top right now. 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:37.240 The Texas Rangers. They are twenty three and fourteen. They're 0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:40.920 head of the Houston Extro's ahead of the Angels, ahead 0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:43.680 of Seattle, and of course everyone's ahead of Oakland because 0:03:43.720 --> 0:03:48.960 that's just well that's Oakland. But an incredible, incredible run 0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:50.640 here to open up the season for Nathan E Valdi, 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:52.320 there's no doubt about that. Alex Cobb has been pretty 0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:54.040 amazing too. We could talk about Amy for a second. 0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:57.560 Not too shabby as well. Cobb seven and a third 0:03:57.600 --> 0:03:59.640 shot of things. His era's at one seventy he's in 0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:03.080 that group. Also, let's talk a little bit about Mason 0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:06.200 Miller on the fifteen day Injured list. He's a we 0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:08.680 did go on the IL. Now we don't know how 0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:11.400 long he's gonna be out because we heard that the 0:04:11.560 --> 0:04:14.640 MRI was clear. But obviously, as I told you yesterday, 0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:17.359 he still got pain. So we're looking for that timetable. 0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:19.640 They say, oh, relatively soon, But I'm not listening to 0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:23.240 that relatively soon nonsense. I'm thinking, once again, if you've 0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:25.839 got a prime pitching prospect and a team that's going nowhere, 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:29.120 there's absolutely no reason to rush this kid. I would 0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:31.680 be surprised if we saw him May. I think you're 0:04:31.720 --> 0:04:33.520 looking more like mid to late June. What are your 0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:36.120 thoughts on Mason Miller's potential return now that he's officially 0:04:36.160 --> 0:04:36.640 on the IL. 0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:38.880 I think it's June, but I don't think it's late June. 0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:41.680 I think like a month could be the territory of 0:04:41.680 --> 0:04:43.960 this whole thing, So I would be looking at mid May. 0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:45.560 But again, this is what I said, before you got 0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:48.080 an IL. You're great. You're only in a tricky spot 0:04:48.160 --> 0:04:51.159 if you're in these no IL league, if you're in 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:53.160 like an NBC league that you have to sit, you're 0:04:53.160 --> 0:04:54.960 probably gonna have to sit a month, and he is 0:04:55.120 --> 0:04:58.520 worth doing that. He's worth sitting for the month because 0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:01.280 I want to say that there's only like a finite 0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:04.359 amount of these guys. But what is buried and I 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:06.360 put on the sheet. But let's just talk about it now, Joe, 0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:08.440 because it is as big of it's a bigger piece 0:05:08.440 --> 0:05:10.640 of news than anything we're talking about. It is URI 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:13.359 pres Day and this is really one of the biggest 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:15.160 things out here. So when you want to talk about 0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:18.039 prospect pitching, the amount of fab and amount of the 0:05:18.160 --> 0:05:20.560 cost of what URI is going to come out from 0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:24.520 this weekend, especially this matchup. This matchup is killer. It's 0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:26.480 going to be in the same lines of what happened 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:29.000 with Mason Miller, and you're not gonna want to just 0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:31.400 give up. So Mason Miller, I think it's about a month. 0:05:31.680 --> 0:05:33.360 I think he'll be okay. I think this will actually 0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:36.000 line him up as long as a recovery comes okay 0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:37.840 to being able to kind of finish out the year, 0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:39.280 because he wasn't gonna be able to put a whole 0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:41.440 bunch of innings in. So I think you can hold tight. 0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:45.800 But Joe Piezapia. This is jury presday, man, this is 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:46.440 what do we do. 0:05:47.360 --> 0:05:50.160 I mean, look, look, I wanted to give the flowers 0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:53.000 to the Valdi's and the Cobs because they those guys 0:05:53.000 --> 0:05:55.360 don't get enough attention. Now we talk about Gallonist writer 0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:58.200 and you know, Garrit Cole and all the usual suspects 0:05:58.200 --> 0:05:59.560 when it comes to pitching. But there's been some guys 0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:03.240 getting and we continue to, you know, take our shots 0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:05.479 at the White Sox guys, and take our shots at 0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:07.520 you know, Jacob de Gram and all these other pitchers 0:06:07.520 --> 0:06:10.800 that are constantly either injured or disappointing. So I wanted 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:12.000 to I want to give some love too. 0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:13.920 Well, you're you're a great wing man. I'll take the 0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:15.880 bell of the ball and you take the ball. Thank 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:17.040 you for picking up the rents. 0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:19.560 Well, let's see if Euriy Perez puts out today. That's 0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:21.839 what we're gonna see today. So six years so far 0:06:22.320 --> 0:06:24.520 that he uh is pitched in the minor leagues again 0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:26.160 at double A. So he's making the jump from double 0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:28.080 A to triple A. Thirty one innings, two point three 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.560 two e ra a, forty two strikeouts and thirty one 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:33.200 innings just nine walks at point eighty one whip for 0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:35.080 Euri Perez, So it's a very exciting time to be 0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:37.960 live for Perez. Is gonna be fascinating to see what 0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:40.680 it looks like as we you know, on the weekend, 0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:43.480 especially he's facing the reds, which means there's a good 0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:45.720 chance that starts gonna look pretty good. He's at home, 0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:48.480 a lot of positive things trending in his direction. You're 0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:50.240 gonna see, We're he's gonna come up later on the show. 0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:51.800 And the betting stuff too, because he's got a line 0:06:51.800 --> 0:06:53.960 of four and a half strikeouts of the over today, 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:57.040 so I'm all over that piece. Also before we get 0:06:57.080 --> 0:06:59.440 to the injuries Welsh, because that's obviously there's a lot 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:01.000 of them today, a lot of injury notes as we 0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:04.080 had to the weekend, rehab assignments, all this stuff. A 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.920 fan of the show, friend of the show, Chris Evans, 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:09.679 who listens to the show all the time, loves the show. 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:13.520 Can't it enough of Joey p on the Welsh. Not 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:16.080 that Chris Evans, it's a different Chris Evans, but not 0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:19.080 a letter Chris Eppens, mind you. But Chris had a 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:22.280 homework assignment and he had to interview somebody in the media, 0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:26.280 and he chose me, this idiot and guess what there 0:07:26.320 --> 0:07:28.600 it is good Friday. All here is from Chris. Just 0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:30.240 want to let you know I got my grades back 0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:32.960 earlier this week and got a hundred on my informative interview. 0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:35.760 He's a communications major, I believe, finished with an A 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:39.360 in the class naturally, So congratulations Chris. This is us 0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:41.400 giving back to the youth of America. I feel like 0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:44.040 but very cool here. So I took some time out 0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:46.920 with Chris. We did some discussions about you know, working 0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:50.800 in broadcasting and media stuff and book writing and all 0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:52.480 these fun things, and it was a really good time. 0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:55.760 So congrats to Chris. And if anybody else has a 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:57.960 homework assignment Welsh just free this weekend that they can 0:07:58.040 --> 0:08:01.640 help that. Yeah, you gotta get you got a bio 0:08:01.760 --> 0:08:04.120 chem for Welsh over his way. 0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:06.400 Hey, you know what, anyone else have got any other homework? 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:08.160 You got any other just let me know.

It'll be fun. Here's a 0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:17.800 fun one from uh let's see from Renegade Envy rest 0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:19.800 of season Vine pas Quentino. What do you guys think? 0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:22.800 Where would you rate him? This is from a renegade 0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:25.880 Envy gak a lot of past Quentino. Look, why is 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:27.480 everybody he's been good? 0:08:28.080 --> 0:08:28.200 Like? 0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:30.200 What are we worried about here? I don't understand. 0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:34.080 I like the rate. Do you remember that that website 0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:37.280 Hot or Not? That he's like way back, like you 0:08:37.320 --> 0:08:40.040 put a photo up and you know you're masochistic, put 0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:42.080 your photo up and then you know people just tear 0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:44.319 you apart. I feel like that's what he's asking because 0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:46.880 I don't know what the rate would be here, But 0:08:46.960 --> 0:08:49.040 I mean i'd probably give Vinnie like a he's like 0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:51.120 a five on the Hot or Not scale show. 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:53.000 I think he's right in the middle for you. I mean, look, 0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:54.320 if you look at the numbers, that not bad. 0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:56.960 I mean, oh, we were just talking about hot or not. 0:08:57.040 --> 0:09:01.760 He's not very hot. N he's not very hot right now, but. 0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:03.120 He's a Look, he's I would say a mid. He's 0:09:03.160 --> 0:09:05.959 a good friend fantasy first, not great, but good. He's 0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:08.240 not well, who do we say that was mid yesterday? 0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:11.640 I say, I can't remember now, Oh, oh, Alex Bregman. 0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:14.720 Maybe he's not quite. I guess he's in that same tier. 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:16.559 I guess after all we started looking at the numbers. 0:09:16.559 --> 0:09:17.720 They're closer than you'd think. 0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:20.600 But he has been fine. He has been fine. Seven homers, 0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:22.640 his average is ticked back up into the two. 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:24.280 I'm gonna have those ebbs and flows. 0:09:24.440 --> 0:09:26.280 The problem though, And this was the thing we knew 0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:29.079 in the season, and I got stuff wrong on the inverse, 0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:31.640 like I wasn't like crazy about Vinnie, and I like 0:09:31.720 --> 0:09:35.520 Joseah Bray, you that didn't look good. Those run in 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:37.840 RBI numbers are never gonna look good for Vinnie. There's 0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:39.920 just not enough base runners and not enough guys in 0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:42.240 scoring positions. So Vinnie's gonna be one of those guys 0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:44.880 that's gonna hit thirty homers, good batting average, but he's 0:09:44.960 --> 0:09:47.480 not have like eighty run eighty RBI. So yeah, I 0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:49.760 don't I don't know what we're talking about here. He's fine, 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:50.760 He's totally fine. 0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:52.920 I think he's frustrating head to head because you're gonna 0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:55.520 have some downturns. But in season long, Rodo just said 0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:57.640 it and forget it. Here's one for Michael C. Speaking 0:09:57.640 --> 0:09:59.280 of hot or not, what would you all do with 0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:01.920 Jose Bray when Oscar Andandez. I'm holding to Oscar, but 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:04.800 I'm looking elsewhere for Jose and bra That's yeah, concert, 0:10:08.440 --> 0:10:11.200 there you go, there you go. You can't get advice 0:10:11.280 --> 0:10:14.360 like that anywhere else. Let's talk about injuries here. Jose L. 0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:17.160 Tubay will begin his minor leg minor league rehab assignment 0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:20.240 today at Triple A, so that's very exciting. Uh. The 0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:23.880 Dodgers activated Jade Martinez, which is probably less exciting. So 0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:26.079 if someone dropped him, you could speculate, but I'm not 0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:29.520 holding out to my breath at all. Wander Franco, Uh, 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:32.240 yesterday had some neck issues. He says he's gonna play today, 0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:34.000 So just keep an eye out in those daily transaction 0:10:34.080 --> 0:10:36.800 leagues and daily line up leagues. T J. Friedel let's 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:40.000 get undergo an MRI after being removed from Thursday's game 0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:46.240 with side soreness. So Welsh, does this start to open up? 0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:48.160 Mister Christian and Carnots. 0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:51.560 And Jack Nicholson, That's what I'm doing right now. Yeah, yes, 0:10:52.040 --> 0:10:54.720 And here's what you do right here, I cans together. 0:10:55.040 --> 0:10:57.960 Here's what you do, Cincinnati. It's super easy. You take 0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:00.720 Nixon Zel and you put him in the outfield. He 0:11:00.760 --> 0:11:04.040 can replace TJ. Friedel. Then what you do is you 0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:07.880 bring up Christian and Carnacion Strand and you put him 0:11:07.920 --> 0:11:08.839 over at third base. 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:11.680 But then you moved to Steer to first. 0:11:12.280 --> 0:11:14.240 Ye, Steer has been playing first. He's been playing more 0:11:14.280 --> 0:11:15.120 majority first, that's. 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:15.880 Sure, he has been playing more. 0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:19.600 Then what you do is you phantom ghost injury whoever 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:21.880 you think you're playing a shortstop and you bring up 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:22.720 Ellie Da La Cruz. 0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:26.920 And then what you do gone full tinfoil helmet on 0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:27.320 me here. 0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:29.800 And then what you do is you get Nancy Kerrigan 0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:32.400 to come in here and why why? 0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:35.079 And then you Nancy Carrigan doesn't do it. Tarya Harding 0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:37.520 does what you welshed it again? 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:40.480 You definitely whichever one. Sorry I didn't get my. 0:11:41.040 --> 0:11:44.120 There's an alternate universe where Nancy Kerrigan took a pipe 0:11:44.120 --> 0:11:45.720 to Tanya Harding. 0:11:45.840 --> 0:11:47.080 What good episode if? 0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:49.920 That would be a great episode of what if? What if? 0:11:50.080 --> 0:11:52.600 Nancy Kerrigan was like, I don't like that story of 0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:54.920 the trailer park girl who's gonna win the hearts and 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:56.840 minds of America. I'm gonna take her out. 0:11:57.200 --> 0:11:59.400 You know what I like too, is Tanya harding, Like 0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:02.560 after all of that and all that negative famous stuff, 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:05.199 she went like full trailer park, after she did every 0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:06.280 trailer park thing you. 0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:07.800 Can do, celebrity boxing. 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:11.160 Remember Beyond, Yeah and Beyond. 0:12:11.840 --> 0:12:13.640 That's a great movie. Did you see the movie? By 0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:15.280 the way, what Tanya? 0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:18.520 I love? What's what's her name that? 0:12:19.240 --> 0:12:20.480 I'll never forget? What's her name? 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:24.200 I'll never forget? You can't you know, Harley Quinn? 0:12:24.880 --> 0:12:26.600 I know I want to see if you can name her. 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:28.599 I can't know. You can't you you don't know the 0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:30.959 name either. Jo's of course I know the name. 0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:31.959 I want to see if you can. 0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:33.880 I don't know. I can't take of her name right now? 0:12:34.320 --> 0:12:36.559 Come on, Well, she's a great nameou is actress? 0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:38.800 No, I know it's it's not there. It's I'm not 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:42.080 gonna try. Thank you, Marco, Robbie, thank you. 0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:43.640 What happened to help him out? 0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:46.960 Yes today, I'm not saying Jack, I'm not saying anything. 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:50.280 Yes, longo. Robbie is in its, Sebastian stan is in it. 0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:54.320 It's it's tremendous, really really well done, well written directed 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:56.800 movie too. You haven't seen it? Check it out there 0:12:56.800 --> 0:12:58.640 you go, there's a movie on the weekend it here's 0:12:58.640 --> 0:13:00.400 some other stuff. So after all that, I love your 0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:03.480 conspiracy theory about the Reds to you. Look, now's the time, 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:06.199 even re draft leagues, I'd be adding Ellie Della Cruz 0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:08.920 now just why why not like Adam for a buck? 0:13:08.960 --> 0:13:09.960 Stick them on the bench. What hap? 0:13:10.559 --> 0:13:14.319 Ellie's on another level right now, and ultimately Ces is 0:13:14.360 --> 0:13:15.800 going to play first for this team. This is what 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:17.880 he did in spring when I saw him. Ellie's been 0:13:17.960 --> 0:13:20.600 playing third base in Triple A. He'll be the third 0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:22.920 baseman and Matt McClain will be the shorts up. That 0:13:22.960 --> 0:13:26.080 will be the setup. But Ces could play third right now. 0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:28.960 I guess it also leaves an opportunity if the team 0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:31.760 really wanted to say screw it and they wanted Ellie 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:33.760 to be that third baseman, they could just bring up 0:13:33.760 --> 0:13:36.600 Ellie and he could beat Cees either way. The TJ. 0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:40.120 Friedles stuff opens up an opportunity for them to finally 0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:42.320 let loose one of Yeah, I mean, that might be 0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:44.760 the hottest Triple A team in baseball right now, with 0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:46.199 the amount of prospects that are ready to become to 0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:47.000 the majors. 0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:50.360 Yeah, there you go. All right, let's continue on here 0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:53.199 some fantastic things in the chat by the way. By 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:55.360 the way, Margot Robbie hell of an actress too. I 0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:56.600 just want to say, it's. 0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:58.480 Just I mean, that's the whole, that's part of the whole. 0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:00.440 Back could a great actress too, But she is. She 0:14:00.480 --> 0:14:02.679 was really. I mean, Wolf of Wall Sheet's a crazy movie. 0:14:02.679 --> 0:14:04.360 She was very good in that. I'm trying to think 0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:06.040 of some other things I've seen her, but I Tania 0:14:06.080 --> 0:14:08.000 is tremendous, Like you know, she's better than just the 0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:09.199 Harley Quinn stuff that she's done. 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:11.960 Rumored to be uh up for Sue Storm. 0:14:12.520 --> 0:14:16.000 Oh really is that that? You want? That fantastic four four? Yes? 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:17.000 All about that? 0:14:17.280 --> 0:14:20.320 Here you go, Carlos Rodon, he could use a little 0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:23.920 fantastic for action there. Maybe we can know whatever whatever 0:14:23.960 --> 0:14:26.120 the stretchy guy had, Maybe we can get that for 0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:30.800 Carlos Rodon because Richard's thank you the stretchy guy. You 0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:34.200 like that he threw from flat ground today or is 0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:36.480 going to? I should say, so, we'll see how that goes. 0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:38.600 Another type say what other type of ground? But I 0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:39.920 guess I could be on the mound, like when I 0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:41.600 hear that it's such a stupid thing like he threw 0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:43.960 from flat ground, So it's like he just could like throw, 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:46.280 he could tell us to me through for the mound 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:47.920 and just say he threw otherwise, I don't know. 0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:50.960 That's like a little It's really concerning. And this investment 0:14:50.960 --> 0:14:53.360 that the Yankees maide in Rodin is even more concerning 0:14:53.400 --> 0:14:56.320 at this point. And I really thought this was smart 0:14:56.360 --> 0:14:57.960 by them. I was like, hey, maybe this guy's turned 0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:00.400 a corner. Last year was terrific for Sam, for Cisco. 0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:02.320 Like you knew it was never gonna be perfect. There's 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:03.520 gonna be some miss time here and there. But the 0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:05.320 fact that we're in, you know, the twelfth of May 0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:08.080 and he hasn't thrown a pitch yet, that's disturbing. Luis 0:15:08.120 --> 0:15:11.560 Severino less disturbing. We'll make another rehab start on Tuesday. 0:15:11.800 --> 0:15:13.520 So if he makes another rehab start Tuesday and the 0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:15.600 ups evenings through about five, which is the expectation, I 0:15:15.600 --> 0:15:17.920 think the last one he had three and change, I 0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:20.200 would imagine maybe by the weekend you get him back, 0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:22.480 if not the following week. So Seva Reno's getting close again. 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:24.240 If someone dropped him, or if you're looking for pitching, 0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:26.360 maybe go out there acquire him get a little ahead 0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:28.640 of the game. Liam Hendricks was behind the game yesterday. 0:15:28.720 --> 0:15:30.680 So good in his first outing, not so good yesterday, 0:15:30.680 --> 0:15:34.000 allowed four runs, only recorded two outs yesterday in the rehab. 0:15:34.000 --> 0:15:37.120 But again, oftentimes we see these guys in spring trading. 0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:39.080 They look good for a couple outings, then they have 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:40.880 a blow uper outing or two, and then they're back 0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:43.800 on track. It's just part of getting ready. Quote unquote, 0:15:43.800 --> 0:15:46.480 Corey Seeger's getting ready. He had a two run double 0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:48.720 yesterday in his minor league rehab assignment at Double A. 0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:53.560 Frisco Raised manager Kevin Cash said that Tyler Glass now 0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:56.640 will make a minor league rehab start also on Tuesday. 0:15:56.680 --> 0:16:00.000 He's still on schedule, and then he's gonna make one more. 0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:03.440 So just pointing out to everybody, I actually think he 0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:06.280 I thought I saw he was gonna pitch today and 0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:08.520 then pitch next week. But either way, he's gonna have 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:10.680 two more rehab assignments, and as long as we don't 0:16:10.680 --> 0:16:13.920 have another incident like we just had, then he's gonna 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:15.120 come back up to the majors. 0:16:15.400 --> 0:16:17.440 I love the incidents. Let's take a quick break in 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:20.520 the action and tell you about Fanimal. I love live events. 0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:23.400 But I hate buying tickets, the hidden fees they suck. 0:16:23.480 --> 0:16:25.280 It's like paying for a whole other person who's not 0:16:25.320 --> 0:16:27.600 even there to be there with you at the event, 0:16:27.800 --> 0:16:30.320 and customer service is terrible and coordinating with friends is 0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:33.960 a nightmare. But then I discovered fanimal and fannamal has 0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:38.280 tickets to everything concerts, festivals, football, basketball, you name it, 0:16:38.400 --> 0:16:41.680 and Major League Baseball. And plus there's no fees. The 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:44.080 price you see is actually the price you pay. What 0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:46.600 a concept? You heard it here first. Fanimal is the 0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:49.760 cheapest place on the internet to get MLB tickets. And 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:52.680 we've all experienced how painful it is to coordinate going 0:16:52.680 --> 0:16:55.040 to events with friends, and I always end up fronting 0:16:55.080 --> 0:16:56.920 a bunch of money and then chasing down the friends 0:16:56.920 --> 0:16:59.280 to get reimbursed, and if they flake, I'm stuck with 0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:03.240 the whole bill. But animals patentent group purchase makes it 0:17:03.320 --> 0:17:06.560 easy to split payments with your friends, so nobody's left 0:17:06.560 --> 0:17:08.840 holding the bag and you don't have to commit until 0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:11.360 your friends do. So just pick the seats, pick how 0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:13.760 many tickets you want to pay for yourself, and then 0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:15.920
