We do. Fantasy 0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:23.000 drafts are being affected by the coronavirus right now. Drafts 0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:26.679 are being canceled, there being moved from offlines you just online. 0:01:26.720 --> 0:01:28.520 We're gonna get into that. We also wanted to get 0:01:28.560 --> 0:01:31.679 into some of the unherrowded players, like Hey, you gotta 0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:34.119 be thinking about these players in your draft. Don't forget 0:01:34.120 --> 0:01:36.319 about them. We talked about my list for weeks. We 0:01:36.360 --> 0:01:38.040 haven't gone back to that, but I want to do that. 0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:39.920 I want to talk about the players you don't want 0:01:39.920 --> 0:01:42.400 to forget about, and not in Frank's crazy thirty round 0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:47.360 fifteen team nonsense drafts, but in your draft and in 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:50.520 my draft, and the types of players that used to 0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:53.800 be deemed sleepers when that was still a thing, but 0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:57.440 now nobody's a sleeper. Everybody knows who everybody is for 0:01:57.480 --> 0:01:59.440 the most part. But we want to make sure you 0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:02.560 don't get about them when it comes to the draft. 0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:05.080 We're gonna be doing that in a little bit. A 0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:08.080 couple of notes non baseball related though, as I was 0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:11.560 just reading before the show started, that the governor of Ohio, 0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:15.200 Mike Dawine, has says for all sporting events he wants 0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:18.400 nobody there. That's the governor. He's asking no spectators for 0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:24.600 any events inside in Cleveland meeting, Cleveland Cavaliers basketball meeting, 0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:28.840 the first four in Dayton, Ohio, meaning the first round 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:31.440 of the n C Double a tournament where one location 0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:36.120 is in Cleveland, Ohio. That's four games on Thursday, two 0:02:36.160 --> 0:02:39.680 more on Saturday or Friday Sunday. So a lot going 0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:43.760 on with this coronavirus, but Neverthelass. Your BFFs are here 0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:46.400 to talk you through all of it. How you can 0:02:46.480 --> 0:02:49.400 let the coronavirus affect your draft. You can't do it. 0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:52.000 We're here to make sure that you don't. Before we 0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:53.880 get to any of that, before we get the number 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:56.520 nine overall pick, before we get to the NBA Tips show, 0:02:56.680 --> 0:02:59.960 we have this update coming your way for Alex Passana 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:14.240 u Yan Alex Bassano with your Sports Grid news update 0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:17.359 here on the Fantasy the f S guys. In college hoops, 0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:20.800 the IVY League has canceled its men's and women's basketball 0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:25.280 conference tournaments Tuesday because of concerns about the coronavirus. The 0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:27.480 four team tournaments were scheduled to be played Friday through 0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:31.200 Sunday in Cambridge. The IVY League insisted it will award 0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:33.520 its automatic n C Double A tournament bids to the 0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:37.120 regular season champions for the women Princeton and for the 0:03:37.120 --> 0:03:40.120 men Yale. The tournaments are the first in Division one 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:44.520 basketball to be canceled because of the corona virus outbreak. 0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:47.880 In Major League Baseball, Mets out fielder Michael Kinford, OH 0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:50.720 is returning to New York to have additional tests on 0:03:50.760 --> 0:03:54.240 an injury to his side. In a quote from general 0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:57.520 manager Brodie Van Wagon, and Michael tweaked his side by 0:03:57.560 --> 0:03:59.960 catching a fly ball in the wind during a game 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:02.680 m a couple of days ago. We will provide updates 0:04:02.720 --> 0:04:05.960 when we have more information. Conforto already had an m 0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:07.480 r I, but when the Mets wanted him to go 0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:12.040 additional testing, the team's medical director insisted. Seven year old 0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:15.360 hit thirty three homers, nine run scores and nine two 0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:18.040 r b i s last season and sticking with Major 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:21.760 League Baseball. For the Yankees, catcher Gary Sanchez is not 0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:26.280 in Tampa on Tuesday because of a quote fever. Sanchez 0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:29.760 will be evaluated by Yankees team physician Norman Castellano. Presumably 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:32.000 he will determine whether Sanchez needs to be tested for 0:04:32.520 --> 0:04:36.039 corona virus. Then year old has also been dealing with 0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:40.560 a back issue in recent days. Ironically, Yankees reliever Zack 0:04:40.640 --> 0:04:44.080 Britain expressed concern about the coronaviators after someone in his 0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:47.520 county was diagnosed with the disease. And you've got a 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:50.440 full slate of NBA NHL and college hoops. Tonight, let's 0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:52.880 go to the Hockey League where the Boston Bruins visit 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:55.479 the Philadelphia Flyers.

The Pittsburgh Penguins visit the 0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:00.680 New Jersey Devil's Penguins that you're going have favorite the 0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:04.800 total six, and the New York Islanders visit the Vancouver Canucks. Canucks, 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:07.679 you're going to have favorite the total five and a half. 0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:10.040 I'm Alex Passano. When this has been your sports grid 0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:12.400 news update, Now back to Greg and Frank on the 0:05:12.480 --> 0:05:18.320 Fantasy bff's all right, back here on the BFF. NIC's 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:20.680 shot by you, Alex. A lot of corona going on 0:05:20.800 --> 0:05:23.360 in all of sports, but tonight the NBA will in 0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:26.240 fact be in action. A lot going on with the 0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:28.880 San Antonio Spurs. We've seen la Marcus Aldridge already be 0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:32.719 upgraded from doubtful to probable. How does that can affect everything? 0:05:32.800 --> 0:05:35.479 We'll figure it out. But earlier today, are Shan Wastamakia 0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:37.560 got an opportunity? Do you sit down with Drew deck 0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:40.080 Meyer of Daily Roder dot com talk about tonight's and 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:52.040 be a slate. All right, shooting guard DeMar DeRozan of 0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:55.440 the San Antonio Spurs, No La Marcus Aldredge figures he'll 0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:57.719 get get some more shots there. As a primetime game, 0:05:57.839 --> 0:06:01.400 Dallas takes on San Antonio and see and tea. Yeah, 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:03.880 a competitive game environment here with San Antonio at home 0:06:03.920 --> 0:06:07.080 and Dallas favored by four points but a strong to 0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:10.400 total and without LaMarcus Aldridge, without Yakam Purtle, now without 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:12.960 Degen d Murray, the Spurs are really hampered for scoring 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:15.080 and so we expect to Martin Rosen, we set that 0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:17.760 usage rate to pump up into the upper twenties. The 0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:19.839 assist rate has really ticked up in the absence of 0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:23.480 de gen d Murray as well clips and samples with 0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:26.200 him off the floor this season according to NBA Wowie. 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:28.080 So we think it's a really good spot for to 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.360 marrow Rose and the price tag is still pretty reasonable 0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:32.559 and there's lots of weeks to spend on this slate. 0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:35.880 That competitive game environment in San Antoniogos Dallas is when 0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:39.960 we want to attack. That is a game you're gonna 0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:43.599 want to attack. But the question becomes what to do 0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:47.520 with LaMarcus Aldridge Probable now tonight everything's gonna change with 0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:49.680 to Mark de Rosen and with Rudy Gay to make 0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:51.599 sure your head on over daily roado dot com before 0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:54.039 lineups lock tonight, so you get the most up to 0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:56.760 date information. And with that, I want to welcome Mike. 0:06:56.880 --> 0:06:59.960 Welcoming my co host. Of course, it's a VFF. More 0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:03.600 it goes, it's Frank Stample as we begin, pick number nine, Frankie, 0:07:03.640 --> 0:07:08.720 what's happening? But what's going on? Man? New location? Same bfs, 0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:12.160 what's going on? Sleep last night? I slipped up pretty well. 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:16.720 I think it's good to hear. No interruptions, no drunk judy, 0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:19.640 no backache, the backs, the backs getting a little bit 0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:21.360 over here. Come on, we don't we don't normally get 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:22.840 to do this on the show. You can do it 0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:25.440 all this show and there's not stopping give you there 0:07:25.440 --> 0:07:28.120 you go. Now we are talking all right, We're gonna 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:29.960 get you up and run. And that was actually making 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:31.720 it feeling a lot better. Don't you worry about that? 0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:34.000 That was great. Let's keep doing that. Let's keep doing that. 0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:36.360 We're here back for another white board series. You know 0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:39.160 how it works by now today the number nine pick. 0:07:39.480 --> 0:07:42.400 If you watch any of this throughout the fantasy football season. Normally, 0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:44.920 oh draft, two different teams picked them up against each other, 0:07:44.960 --> 0:07:46.480 and let you know which one I like more. Today 0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:49.000 we're gonna be doing it from a Rooto perspective and 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:52.320 from a head to head points perspective, Greg, Normally I 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:54.920 was doing it kindless number sign to H points like 0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:58.600 hashtag second half points? Is that true? You don't like 0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:01.560 my handwriting? Is there a problem there? Hashtag? This is 0:08:01.560 --> 0:08:04.240 a hashtag? Greg, there's two lines in that way. This 0:08:04.320 --> 0:08:06.920 is an h alright, Well it doesn't look like a 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:08.640 sounder and age. But continue. I don't know that you 0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:13.480 have the best penmanship yourself saying, but can I continue? Alright? 0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:15.240 From a Rhodo perspective and from a head to head 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:17.960 points perspective, if you have number nine pick, how are 0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:20.760 you supposed to handle this in your drafts? Let's at 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:23.920 least get through the first overall pick here before we 0:08:24.000 --> 0:08:26.960 hit the break. Yeah, you're at number nine, right? We 0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:29.840 said this yesterday. Greg, you think there's a consensus top seven. 0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:32.440 I think that there's You think there's a consensus eight. Yes, 0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:34.920 I think there's a consensus top seven. Most people would 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:37.080 argue f lind Or is in that group. Let's assume 0:08:37.200 --> 0:08:41.480 the top seven are gone Mookie Bets, Cody Bellinger, Ronald Lacuna, 0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:45.120 Mike Trout, Christian Yellow, the top two starting pitchers Garrick Cold, 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:48.079 Jacob Graun and Francisco Lindor, which means the best player 0:08:48.120 --> 0:08:53.520 available in Rodeo is the never ending story that is 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:57.040 Trevor story. Some people are going to argue for trade 0:08:57.040 --> 0:08:59.040 Turner in the spot, Greg, I'm not one of those people. 0:08:59.080 --> 0:09:01.079 I like what Trevor story brings to the table. He's 0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:03.280 cut down the strikeouts the past couple of seasons. He's 0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:05.160 gonna give you a thirty plus home runs. He's gonna 0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:07.240 give you twenty steels as well to County stat should 0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:10.000 be there obviously hitting in Coors Field. Really good lineup 0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:12.720 around him as well, Greg, I don't like to invest 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:15.880 all of my stolen bases in one player, and I've 0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:18.040 explained this before. I had de Gordon in the main 0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:21.320 event last year. He went down and wasn't good frankly, 0:09:21.360 --> 0:09:24.760 and only wind up giving you stolen bases. When you 0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:27.120 put so much stock into one player for your steels, 0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:30.120 if that player gets hurt, then you're kind of screwed. 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:32.480 And as I've liked to, you know, build these teams out. 0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:34.440 And I've said before Greg and Rhodo, I like to 0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:37.000 get a bunch of players that can give me twelve 0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:39.800 to fifteen steels, maybe twenty, maybe one player who can 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:42.360 give me twenty five, because I think that that's the 0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:43.840 best way to round it out. So I'll take Trevor 0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:46.400 Story over Trade Turner. I think you'll get better numbers 0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:48.679 from Story than you will Turner. Are you okay with that? Well, 0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:50.480 so we talked about this right whole show about this. 0:09:50.600 --> 0:09:52.319 What do we do about those home roads? Supposed to 0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:54.760 Trevor story, trade Turner hasn't been able to stay healthy, 0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:57.040 same as Trevor Story earlier in his career. Which story 0:09:57.520 --> 0:10:00.000 for me, You're gonna get more power, you get less steels, 0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:01.880 but I think all the other numbers will probably be 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:05.640 pretty similar. I'm good with Trevor's story over Trade Turner. 0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:07.200 All right, So let's move over to the head to 0:10:07.240 --> 0:10:11.280 head points format right now. Trevor story in Rhodo obviously, 0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:13.520 and as I've said time and time again, when it 0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:15.720 comes to the head to head points league, you need pitching. 0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:18.120 And I don't care if I'm pulling up Walker Bueller 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:20.839 or Max sus are up the board. I want that 0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:23.880 ace on my head to head points team. So I'm 0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:27.960 going to take Walker Bueller, who is now my number 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:31.520 three starting pitcher, Greg, because we had to lower Justin 0:10:31.600 --> 0:10:33.559 Verlander with the injuries that are going on with him 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:36.319 right now. H And Max Scherzer today is dealing with 0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:38.720 a side injury. There. He says he's started to start 0:10:38.720 --> 0:10:40.360 on Sunday. He says he's gonna make a start on Sunday. 0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:44.080 He was supposed to start today. Scratched across precautionary is 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:46.400 what they're saying. But let's not forget last year Max 0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:49.080 schurz Are dealt with back neck injuries as well, which 0:10:49.559 --> 0:10:52.360 hiboted him pitching in the World Series as well. A 0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:54.640 lot of people think Walker Bueler can take that next step, 0:10:54.679 --> 0:10:56.480 and I am one of those people, Greg. We saw 0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:58.600 last year he got off to a slow start. Remember 0:10:58.679 --> 0:11:01.040 in eighteen he pitched deep to the postseason into the 0:11:01.080 --> 0:11:03.880 World Series, so didn't get a normal spring training. But 0:11:04.040 --> 0:11:06.959 once he got going into the season, Greg from really 0:11:07.040 --> 0:11:09.360 may on, Walker Bueller pitched like one of the best 0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:12.000 pictures in baseball, like a top five talent that he is, 0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:14.080 so I have no problem pulling him off the board here. 0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:15.600 I want that Ace and I had to head points 0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:17.800 League and Walker Bueller. It is. So that's the question 0:11:17.800 --> 0:11:19.439 that I knew we were gonna have to answer at 0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:22.680 some point today. Right justin Verlander, He's not gonna start 0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:25.959 the season on time. Max Scherzer has this side issues. 0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:28.880 Supposed to make a start on Sunday. It's Tuesday. So 0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:31.120 all of a sudden on Friday, beside is not feeling 0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:33.200 better than you. Gotta worry. And I know that's creeping 0:11:33.240 --> 0:11:35.760 into your mind here, Frank, So who's the next guy up? 0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:38.280 Walker Viewler? And I get it. You always, when you 0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:40.520 have an opportunity, you always want to have a picture 0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:42.360 in this spot in the head Dead of Wine Lee 0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:44.440 because it provide you so many points. I get it. 0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:47.360 Walker Vieweler now moving up. When we come back, I 0:11:47.400 --> 0:11:50.240 want to ask where Walker Viewler should go in the 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:52.600 Roado side of things. I understand head to head points, 0:11:52.600 --> 0:11:55.720 Frank even very adamant about that throughout your white board series. 0:11:55.800 --> 0:11:57.240 But when we come back, we're gonna talking about how 0:11:57.280 --> 0:11:59.560 high you're gonna move Walker Viewer up in the Rohado setting. 0:11:59.640 --> 0:12:01.800 And we get to the next two picks for both 0:12:01.840 --> 0:12:04.240 head to head points and for rodo stick around, hold 0:12:04.240 --> 0:12:10.040 out more coming your way here on the BFFs.

Back here 0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:51.040 with Frank's staffll I am Greg is the Fantasy BFS. 0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:54.400 We're going forward with this week's white board series pick 0:12:54.480 --> 0:12:56.920 number nine today, Walker Brueller for the head to head 0:12:56.920 --> 0:13:01.040 points category. Trevor's story. They never underneas story as the 0:13:01.160 --> 0:13:04.120 number one pick in a rodo format, but right before 0:13:04.120 --> 0:13:06.120 the break, I wanted to pose you the questions, sir. 0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:10.000 With Max shows are battling a side injury with Justin Verlander, 0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:13.760 Verlander having a strained lat How high it's too high 0:13:13.760 --> 0:13:16.320 for Walker Bueller? I think that he's in the mix 0:13:16.480 --> 0:13:18.560 on the side as well. From a Rooto perspective, if 0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:21.880 you wanted to take Walker Bueller over Trevor Story, I 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:23.560 don't really have a problem with it. I think that 0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:25.240 you can make the argument to pull him that far 0:13:25.360 --> 0:13:27.200 up the board. Most people are not gonna want to 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:30.559 do that. I think realistically you're looking at Lindore is 0:13:30.559 --> 0:13:33.199 gonna go eight, and Rohto Stories gonna go nine, Trade 0:13:33.200 --> 0:13:36.400 Turners gonna go tan, Juan Soto is gonna go eleven. Realistically, 0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:42.080 you probably see Walker Bueller go in that twelve range twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen. 0:13:42.080 --> 0:13:44.160 That's where you're gonna see Walker Bueller and Max Scherzer. 0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:45.840 I would make the argument you can take him as 0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:48.560 early as nine, but I think realistically he's probably more 0:13:48.600 --> 0:13:50.360 so around eleven or twelve. So let me ask you this, 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:53.000 you have pick eleven in a league, potentially, would you 0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:56.959 be taking Walker Bueler there? Uh, It is definitely something 0:13:57.000 --> 0:14:00.040 that I would consider, especially considering all the injuries to 0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:02.040 pitching right now. It just means other players are going 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:04.400 to move be moved further up the board. Other pictures 0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:06.240 are and hitters are gonna slide down the board, So 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:08.160 I pick eleven. I don't have a problem taking Walker 0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:12.360 Bueller there, Walker Bueller one, Soto, Trevor's story, Trade Turner. 0:14:12.400 --> 0:14:14.080 One of those four guys probably the pick at eleven. 0:14:14.720 --> 0:14:17.760 That's right, alright, yes, that sounds right, Craig, alright, we 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:19.920 have pick eleven in a league together. Those who are wonderings, 0:14:20.000 --> 0:14:22.000 what are you talking about? I have no idea what 0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:24.040 you're referring to. What are you talking about? All right? 0:14:24.080 --> 0:14:26.960 Every idea? All right, let's move on to pick the 0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:28.680 number two for both of these guys. All right, so 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:30.520 we'll go back to the road side of things here, 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:33.160 and you're looking at pick uh my, if my math 0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:36.760 is correct, twelve team league. Just so everybody knows. During 0:14:36.800 --> 0:14:39.080 the break, Franco's counting on his fingers to try to 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:41.280 figure out what number of pick it actually was. Your story, 0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:43.280 You can just do it in your head. Huh, Mr 0:14:43.360 --> 0:14:46.920 mathematicians A twelve the twelve team league? All right, so 0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:49.920 real quick? What number pick do you have? Sixteen? Second round? Yeah? 0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:51.880 You thought about that, right? Yeah? Alright, so what I 0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:54.080 thought about that? That's what I thought. That's what I do. 0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:57.520 He's not wrong about the county on the hands all right, 0:14:57.520 --> 0:14:59.000 So in the second round. I know that I like 0:14:59.080 --> 0:15:01.680 to stress star any pictures really in both formats, more 0:15:01.680 --> 0:15:05.600 so in head to head points. But Greg, Jose Ramirez 0:15:05.720 --> 0:15:09.320 is still available at pick sixteen in the second round 0:15:09.360 --> 0:15:11.600 of a twelve team league. Here, if you have the 0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:14.600 ninth overall pick. As much as I would like to 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:17.360 make the argument for Shane Bieber pulling him up the 0:15:17.400 --> 0:15:20.880 board with Justin Verlander hurt, if Matt Serger is there, 0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:22.680 I would say go ahead and take him, assuming that 0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:25.360 he's healthy. Wait before we get more news there. But 0:15:26.240 --> 0:15:28.280 I gotta take Jose Ramirez here in the second round 0:15:28.400 --> 0:15:33.400 to pair with a Trevor Story. Here, Greg, two players 0:15:33.400 --> 0:15:36.520 who were five five counts, players who are going to 0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:39.680 give you everything, and they afford you so much flexibility 0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:41.560 for the rest of draft. Greg, you have you know, 0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:43.720 stolen basis so far, you have power, you have a 0:15:43.720 --> 0:15:46.040 little bit of everything. You know, maybe Jose Ramirez has 0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:48.360 two seventy this year to seventy five, He's not going 0:15:48.400 --> 0:15:51.920 to really excel in batting average. Trevor Story to eighty 0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:54.360 to eighty five hitter, you know, these aren't there your 0:15:54.400 --> 0:15:56.880 three hitters, so you're probably gonna have to get another 0:15:57.000 --> 0:15:59.640 one of those batting average contributors later on, but they 0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:01.440 don't you in batting you know, I I don't think 0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:03.120 there's anything wrong with this. I think a little bit 0:16:03.160 --> 0:16:04.760 later on in your draft you can just get a 0:16:04.760 --> 0:16:07.520 guy that is a fine average hitter, that's a three 0:16:07.720 --> 0:16:10.760 d hitter, and you're in a good spin far planet obviously. 0:16:10.920 --> 0:16:13.440 But I think both of these players, uh, Trevor Story 0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:17.120 and Ramirez give you solid batting average, give you steals, 0:16:17.120 --> 0:16:19.400 give you home runs. That is a fantastic start to 0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:21.320 a team, my favorite thus far, to be honest with. Yeah, 0:16:21.320 --> 0:16:23.000 I really really like this as well. And you're still 0:16:23.040 --> 0:16:25.480 gonna be able to get some solid starting pitchers in 0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:27.440 rounds three and four, and we'll attack that a little 0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:29.400 bit later on as well. Coming back on this side, 0:16:29.440 --> 0:16:31.240 we already have Walker Bueller. I don't think that you 0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:33.920 need to pull another starting pitcher up the board. I 0:16:33.920 --> 0:16:37.000 think that you could get some solid guys in rounds three, four, 0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:39.200 five of a twelve team league as well. I don't 0:16:39.200 --> 0:16:41.040 think that you need to force the issue too much there. 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:43.480 So we're looking at a hitter. If Josie Ramirez is there, 0:16:43.480 --> 0:16:45.240 he's fine. He's a good hitter for a points league. 0:16:45.240 --> 0:16:47.160 He's gonna hit a ton of doubles, ton of home runs. 0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:49.040 Good play discipline as well. But the player that I 0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:52.800 would argue for, assuming that he's healthy, Greg because he 0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:56.520 left today in spring training with a foot injury. You 0:16:56.560 --> 0:16:58.160 got hit in the foot with a pitch and they 0:16:58.160 --> 0:17:00.920 said that he's fine. It was just Austetonnary. I would 0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:03.720 argue for Bryce Harper to go at pick sixteen here 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:06.000 in the second round. He's so great in the Points 0:17:06.040 --> 0:17:08.639 League as well. Great because the plate discipline. Yes, he's 0:17:08.640 --> 0:17:10.199 going to strike out, but he's also gonna give you 0:17:10.200 --> 0:17:13.719 like a fifteen percent walk great which helps mitigate his strikeouts. 0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:16.000 I think we're in for a big year from Bryce Harper. 0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:20.560 Forty home runs to seventy plus average, fifteen stolen bases, 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:23.000 the county sector. They're great line up, great ballpark. I 0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:25.040 think everything is there for Bryce Harper this year. Yeah. 0:17:25.119 --> 0:17:27.439 And once again, and I haven't loved every team that 0:17:27.480 --> 0:17:29.960 we put together, but like, I really like this team 0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:31.960 too because I think you got a potential first round vic, 0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:34.480 somebody that in fifteen team leagues is actually going towards 0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:36.359 the first round. Now you get him the second you 0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:38.960 get a potential ace that's healthy right now. In Walker 0:17:38.960 --> 0:17:41.520 Revieweler here and head to head points in the first 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:43.399 I really like both of these two teams. I think 0:17:43.400 --> 0:17:46.000 we're thus far. These are two teams I feel the 0:17:46.040 --> 0:17:49.119 best about that we've done. I've never got this much positivity, 0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:52.080 this much optimism. We're staying next to each other, all right, 0:17:52.119 --> 0:17:53.840 So I think I feel more into it. And he 0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:55.840 was sitting across the room behind the table, you'd probably 0:17:55.840 --> 0:17:57.520 be like, well, I don't really like that team, but 0:17:57.520 --> 0:17:59.239 I think it would be I can't really really see it, 0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:02.080 you know, it is like what is that? Yeah? Now 0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:04.840 I'm in How can you hope you go back and 0:18:04.840 --> 0:18:06.880 watch the other whiteboard series that I've done, because they're 0:18:06.920 --> 0:18:10.399 all really good, as these are pretty good? How can 0:18:10.520 --> 0:18:14.320 these teams? Seriously, how do we do this? You have 0:18:14.400 --> 0:18:16.040 ninth pick in as well, Team League. That's how you 0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:17.840 do it. We have eleventh pick. We can start walking Upler, 0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:21.200 Brest Harbor cut it down potentially. Sounds fun, must sound fun? 0:18:21.240 --> 0:18:22.919 All right? Is my kind of teams. Let's keep going, 0:18:22.960 --> 0:18:24.520 all right, let's keep going. We have the first two 0:18:24.520 --> 0:18:27.240 picks here, Trevor's story and Jose Aremira is from a 0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:30.160 Rhodo perspective. So I said that we're going to attack 0:18:30.200 --> 0:18:33.200 starting pitching. Now is the time to do exactly that. 0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:35.680 And I'm going to take someone who broke out last 0:18:35.760 --> 0:18:37.639 year Greg and someone I think who can pick up 0:18:37.680 --> 0:18:40.359 where he left off, and that is Lucas Gilito of 0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:42.840 the Chicago White Sox. Greg doesn't like this pick. You 0:18:42.840 --> 0:18:45.160 see the face that he's making right now, But Greg, 0:18:45.280 --> 0:18:47.000 you might want to check out the underlying numbers. Might 0:18:47.680 --> 0:18:50.840 to Lucas Giolito, the swinging strike rate was acstlutely ridiculous. 0:18:50.880 --> 0:18:53.679 The strikeouts were there for him. He changed his mechanics. 0:18:53.800 --> 0:18:55.880 He is healthy again in spring. He has already made 0:18:55.880 --> 0:18:58.520 his debut. Uh Yas Monty Grandel is the catcher of 0:18:58.520 --> 0:19:00.000 the White Sox this year. I think he's gonna work 0:19:00.080 --> 0:19:03.640 wonders for Lucas Gilto, for Dylan Ceas he's a great 0:19:03.640 --> 0:19:06.119 pitch framer. He's gonna steal strikes for these guys. And 0:19:06.359 --> 0:19:10.760 last year Greg Gelto change the mechanics, saw increased velocity 0:19:10.800 --> 0:19:14.679 on the fastball per hour. Has the change up working 0:19:14.840 --> 0:19:18.120 a deadly fastball changeup combination. Greg I am buying in 0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:20.560 on everything that Lucas Gilto did last year. I think 0:19:20.560 --> 0:19:22.720 he's gonna give you a strikeouts, a mid three z R, 0:19:22.800 --> 0:19:25.920 A a sub one to zero whip. Matt modiqu is 0:19:25.920 --> 0:19:30.199 buying in Greg Modicka. Guy, we all know this. But 0:19:30.240 --> 0:19:32.399 the thing I LuSE Gildo. Everything you just said, it 0:19:32.480 --> 0:19:35.240 is true. He got so much better last year. All 0:19:35.280 --> 0:19:40.800 these underlying numbers they're up. It's one year, not even 0:19:40.840 --> 0:19:43.639
