A little glabor Torres 0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:20.080 on the back of his shirt. Happy Glabor Day yesterday, 0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:23.840 Big Yankee comeback. It was an interesting night in baseball. 0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:28.240 Only one hour today abbreviated program. So for this abbreviated 0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:31.800 hour we are joined. But the Closer Christ, what's up, guys? 0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:34.479 How are you doing? It's your boy The Closer Chris 0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:37.480 Ventry here and yeah, big Yankee win last night. We're 0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:40.399 in first place. He's looking good for New York. Right 0:01:40.440 --> 0:01:44.000 now we are in first We are not New York 0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:47.480 in general not in a great shape. The Giants quarterback, 0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:51.400 the Jets, the Mets are jokes. So Baseball New York 0:01:51.440 --> 0:01:55.280 basically our entire lives, Greg even No, I mean the 0:01:55.320 --> 0:01:57.800 Giants have been there, but like it's pretty much been 0:01:57.800 --> 0:02:02.520 the Yankees as the constant and then everybody else this 0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:06.760 a ray everywhere else. That's basically the your sports. Why 0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:08.519 would have changed now? It wouldn't, Frank, I mean, the 0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:11.880 Giants franchise have been you know, yeah they're not bad. 0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:15.440 They haven't been bad they are now but now they're bad. Yeah, 0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:20.519 very dumb, very dumb people. They they're all about culture. 0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:22.480 The Giants now, Oh yeah, they got a great so 0:02:22.520 --> 0:02:24.560 they got rid of Landing Collins and Odell and they 0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:26.840 all defended chother yesterday. Check baby, check. That's a nice 0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:32.239 little culture right there. Checkdown culture. That fantastic videos of 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.200 Daniel Jones during the wall to the running back. I 0:02:34.200 --> 0:02:37.679 gotta love that. Do you this picture show? You haven't 0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:39.359 seen it yet. I don't know what you're talking about 0:02:39.720 --> 0:02:42.800 it to you. This picture is not photoshop in anyway. 0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:50.519 Which ones he like? I actually did see that. I 0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:54.760 assume he's the one in the foreground. So basically, there's 0:02:54.760 --> 0:02:56.639 a good face. There's a picture. It's too small for 0:02:56.680 --> 0:02:58.320 me to show everybody, but like, it's literally just the 0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:02.000 same guy. It's a joke, Unbelievaniel John's any same guy, 0:03:02.320 --> 0:03:04.440 same guy. Le big deal, le big deal all right. 0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:07.639 On the program today, little backpacking where you get your 0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:13.600 um your best pick, best bet everbody, the best bet ever, 0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:17.120 best bet forever? What it was, best bet forever? It 0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:20.440 was best bet ever? Whatever were your best bet forever. 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:24.040 A little bit later on the program, Frank, we technically 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:25.880 made three of three of them mester at your best 0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:28.760 bets forever, go three, and out of course we did. 0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:33.200 They were the best best forever. They were as advertised, Greig. 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:36.920 We'll try, We'll try and keep it going again today. 0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:38.240 Let's see see what we can do. Le's see if 0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:39.600 we can start up a little streak here. When I 0:03:39.680 --> 0:03:41.640 looked at it, when I looked at it last night, 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:46.480 I was pumped. I was really more intrigued by the 0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:48.920 Twins and Angels game than I should have been great. Oh, 0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:51.480 no doubt, no doubt when there was no one score him. 0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:54.600 It's not the biggest Jaco to Rees fan, but you 0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:57.560 were last night. I was last night big fan Jacoreesy. 0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.480 So let's start there. Let's start with Jacob are Easy. 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:06.200 Is that okay? Fantastic? Because Jake Odor Easy and Frank's 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:09.560 Minnesota twins going to l A and defeat the Angels 0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:13.600 three So one under easy five shut out anything, three hits, 0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:17.200 two walks, he struck out six. Felix pain on the 0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:19.120 other side with five innings, a lout of four hits, 0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:22.800 one run, walked, one, struck out three. Once again, he 0:04:23.200 --> 0:04:27.960 was your uh with the term I heard yesterday for him? 0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:31.080 What his role is that? What his follower? Yeah, right 0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:32.680 after the open? What do you have after an opener? 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:35.040 You have a follower? Cole pitched one and then he 0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:38.799 pitched five. All right, so I'll go with pseudo starter. Alright. 0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:41.120 So Painia was your follower as it froll into the purposes, 0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:44.320 he was your starter, Taylor Cole was the opener here ty, 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:47.120 but Sherty takes the lost Hunzle rob last picture of 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:50.599 the ninth pitches actually very solid ninth right there, which 0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:53.160 you think godoresis performance right now? Down to two point 0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:56.799 three eight, franc I mean this has been pretty standard. 0:04:56.920 --> 0:04:59.680 Jake Goderizy, he only had eight tweetings strikes yesterday in 0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:02.200 ninety pitches. But the Los Angeles Angels are a team 0:05:02.240 --> 0:05:05.120 that does not strike out very much at all. They're 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:07.360 actually among the league le leaders in terms of strikeout 0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:09.960 right and swinging strike rate. So they're just really good 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:12.960 in that regard. And now it's been this to four 0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:16.560 six eight straight starts that Jacob Reezi has allowed three 0:05:16.760 --> 0:05:19.360 earned runs four of his last five. I believe zero 0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:21.960 runs allowed, that is correct. Yeah, so he's getting it 0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:25.200 done right now. Greg, there are some underlying numbers here 0:05:25.279 --> 0:05:29.320 with Jacob Reezi. You can try and turn him into 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:32.839 someone else that you trust more long term. That's probably 0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:34.960 something that I would look into. He's got a two 0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:37.680 point three eight e R ray. Looking into the rest 0:05:37.720 --> 0:05:40.000 of the number his numbers, it's not like he's doing 0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:44.440 anything vastly different than he has in years past. He's 0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:46.160 using his curveball a little bit more this year. The 0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:49.040 v low on his fastball is up a mile and 0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:52.240 a half last year one point one mile. Is proud 0:05:52.240 --> 0:05:53.920 of this year ninety two point six, but he's got 0:05:54.080 --> 0:05:55.840 a two point three eight ear a, he's got a 0:05:55.880 --> 0:06:00.480 four point five nine x fit Greggy, I think I 0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:02.720 would try. I think I would try just float them 0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:04.600 out there a little bit and see what you can 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:07.840 get in return. Venture That's exactly what I was gonna say. 0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:10.440 I think this is the ultimate sell high picture right now. 0:06:11.360 --> 0:06:14.800 The problem is jakeodre easy and everybody knows that if yeah, 0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:18.640 I mean, nobody's gonna people have been playing or you know, 0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:21.600 watching baseball for a long time. No, yea, So it's 0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:24.800 very hard to to do that. You would probably you 0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:27.800 would have to do it for someone who's struggling, like 0:06:27.839 --> 0:06:31.240 it would have to be like a classic sell high, 0:06:31.480 --> 0:06:34.880 sell high by low situation. Who would you rather have? 0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:43.360 Jake Odoreesi or Mike Minor Because Mike Miner last night 0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:47.800 my man six innings of two run ball. He struck 0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:51.480 out eleven at Seattle Mariners last night and that was 0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:54.120 the second double digit strike out game of the season. 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:56.440 No big deal, what is going on? We got blast 0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:58.919 in the past here with Mike Miner and Jake Odoreesy, 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.920 two of the most relevant starting pictures in baseball to 0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:04.520 be honestly lowers his e R rate to two point 0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:06.839 six four. Now you have two guys here with sub 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:10.240 three e R a s. Mike Miner yesterday with nineteen 0:07:10.400 --> 0:07:12.800 swinging strikes on a hundred and seven pitches going up 0:07:12.800 --> 0:07:17.840 against the Seattle Mariners. We've talked about how they've come 0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:20.080 back down to earth. They got off to a blistering 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:22.960 hot start their offense, and you know there are all 0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.320 of a sudden, like four games under five hundred, so 0:07:25.440 --> 0:07:28.760 they've they've come crashing back down to earth. Greg But 0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:34.240 the underlying numbers, they're actually pretty similar to to Jake Odorezy. 0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:38.160 But I think I would go with Mike Miners. These 0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:40.480 guys are close and it's a fair strike, and if 0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:42.640 you look at the ballpark like you probably lean with 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:46.120 Odoreesy over Mike Miner, who pitches in Texas, which is 0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:50.440 not frankly just not a good pitching environment. But I 0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:53.720 first what I'm seeing from him a little bit more 0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:55.760 than I am. Odoreesi doesn't walk as many guys as 0:07:55.840 --> 0:07:58.400 Odoreeze either, the hard hit rate against him isn't as 0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:01.680 high as well, the underlying numbers are a little bit better. 0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:05.520 The first pitch strike percentage better as well. So it's close, 0:08:05.720 --> 0:08:08.760 but I would lean with Mike Miner and if I could, 0:08:09.080 --> 0:08:11.360 but probably try and dangle both out there and what 0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:17.400 he wants Jay Gunner easier, Mike mins Nobody wants these 0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:19.640 guys Pitley. I had a Mike Minor and he talked 0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:22.480 me out of keeping him, so I dropped him. Yeah, 0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:24.679 she said, it's Mike Minor, what are you doing? Probably 0:08:24.720 --> 0:08:27.680 not true exactly what happened. If. I definitely didn't tell 0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:30.760 you to drop Josh Bell either, so I think he 0:08:30.800 --> 0:08:33.360 did that. I did not tell you to drop Josh Bell. Yeah, 0:08:33.360 --> 0:08:36.079 I don't think anybody did. I think he just probably 0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:37.679 told you so that he could try and pick him up. No, No, 0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:40.880 he had a bad first week, so I dropped Mike Minor, 0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:44.080 like and that's why you don't do what Breg Susman 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:46.440 does and and just lose patients on your players after 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:49.040 the first week. But you also can't wait too long. 0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:50.640 Now Josh Bell is gonna win the n L m 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:57.120 v P. Probably it's either him or Stick. He's got 0:08:57.240 --> 0:09:01.360 hurt sticking looking for players are like in the range 0:09:01.400 --> 0:09:04.720 as what RESI and Mike Minor. Minor in my home 0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:09.520 league is top twelve starting pitcher right now. Speaking of Texas, Frank, 0:09:09.600 --> 0:09:11.920 you were tweeting about this last night, drink. Chris Martin 0:09:12.000 --> 0:09:13.800 came in for not to save, but to close this 0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:16.520 game out there up four runs. He left three of 0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:20.280 them in the ninth inning and did ultimately close this 0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:22.560 one out. But Jose Clerk has looked very, very good 0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:25.240 in his rollabill as an opener. Uh and in the 0:09:25.320 --> 0:09:28.679 middle inning Shawn Kelly activated off the aisle last night. 0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:31.560 This could be the end of Chris Martin the closer. Yeah, 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:33.800 I think so. I mean three r and runs last night, 0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:36.000 gives up another home run to Dan Vogelboch, who we 0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:39.480 spoke about yesterday, who is officially hot once again. He 0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:41.839 was hot to start the season, got cold. This is 0:09:41.920 --> 0:09:44.280 the player that Dan vogelok is gonna be. But regardless 0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:46.920 of Chris Martin, this is three straight appearances now where 0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:49.360 he's allowed to run. He allowed three ear and runs yesterday, 0:09:49.360 --> 0:09:50.839 the ear a all the way up to four point 0:09:50.920 --> 0:09:54.839 six six. Conversely, Jose La Clerk has gone three straight 0:09:54.880 --> 0:09:58.920 outings without allowing a run venturous. So I think it's 0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:01.360 gonna be somebody, whether it's Sean Kelly or Jose la Clerk. 0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:04.480 They're probably taking this over from Chris Martin, and I 0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:08.000 would still put my money on it being Jose La 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:12.439 Clerk sooner rev than later. I agree Martin, you know 0:10:12.520 --> 0:10:15.040 obviously falling apart and you know it really doesn't have 0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:18.520 the experience. I would take a flyer on Kelly though, 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:21.839 you know I would actually, I'm sure he's very long 0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:25.240 the only five on ESPN leagues, so because he's been 0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:27.079 on the I L you could also stash until he 0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:30.880 comes back, which is soon, and then you know you 0:10:31.040 --> 0:10:34.079 have a potential closure here that le Clark could be 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:36.200 you know, you know, all over the board. Like you said, 0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:39.479 these these closers are becoming guys that pitch in situations 0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:43.080 where you know they're most needed. So Kelly could end 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:45.280 up getting a lot of saves and you're getting him 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:47.240 for nothing. Really, I think you could put his zero 0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:50.160 one dollar bit or something on him and grab him. Um. 0:10:50.600 --> 0:10:52.520 But yeah, I agree with you on that and the 0:10:52.600 --> 0:10:55.079 other thing. Mike Minor and ODORREESI back to that for 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:58.360 a second. They're like the same guy in their career too. 0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:00.480 There are guys that have been around for well, never 0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:02.559 really put it together. They had a couple of good 0:11:02.640 --> 0:11:04.440 glimpses here and their career, and all of a sudden 0:11:04.440 --> 0:11:06.679 they're having this kind of breakout late in their career. 0:11:07.760 --> 0:11:10.640 I do trust Minor a little more, but both of them, 0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:14.079 I think, try to sell right now if you can. 0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:19.559 I don't know what you're gonna be able to get 0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:21.680 for them, Like I'm just looking at my home league 0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:24.800 points lee right now. Like players who are significantly below 0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:27.360 them who I'd rather have. I mean, they're all big names. 0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:30.960 It's Jack Flaherty, we always talk about, Zach Wheeler, Carlos Carrasco, 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:34.480 Aaron Nola. I mean, if anyone's freaking out about those pictures, 0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:37.199 obviously you'd rather have them. Even if David Price, who 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:38.599 just came back off the I l of course you 0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:40.839 loved all right yesterday. So these are just some of 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:42.960 the names. I'll throw them out there is like, can 0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:47.439 you flip them for that highly doubted but crazier things 0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:50.840 have happened. What we had someone say they traded glass 0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:52.760 Now for Chris Sale right or something like that earlier 0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:55.880 on in the season. So crazy things happen in leagues. 0:11:55.920 --> 0:11:58.319 So you could also package the deal. Yeah, float float 0:11:58.360 --> 0:12:01.160 some of these guys out there well, I will say this, 0:12:01.360 --> 0:12:06.720 it's not impossible to kind of have this career renaissance 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:08.640 later on in your career, Like look at Jay Hat. 0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:10.880 When Jay Hab first came up with the Phillies, he 0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:12.880 was you know, took the league by a storm. Everyone 0:12:12.960 --> 0:12:15.319 was so excited about him. You know, he bounced around 0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:18.280 certain locations. And then the past couple of years with Toronto, 0:12:18.440 --> 0:12:20.840 you talk about a guy like in his mid thirties 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:23.600 randomly starting to take off again. That was Jay Hab. 0:12:23.640 --> 0:12:25.599 Greg So, I don't think it's impossible that some of 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:29.079 these pictures figure things out, but you're right it is 0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:31.240 probably unlikely. Who do you think it's the next same 0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:34.400 opportunity for Texas? I think it's Sean Kelly. I agree, Adventure. 0:12:35.240 --> 0:12:37.880 I think it's Sean Kelly. He pitched. He pitched well 0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:40.000 before he came off, before he went on the I 0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:42.280 l for the most part. Although the clerks look good, 0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:44.599 I think they light the role that the clerks in 0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:45.839 right now. I don't think you want to mess with it. 0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:47.160 I think they give it a Sean Kelly. I agree 0:12:47.160 --> 0:12:50.480 with christ. The only reason I'll bring this up is 0:12:50.480 --> 0:12:54.360 because Floria willingly called himself out for it in our 0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:56.400 text change, so I feel like I could call him 0:12:56.400 --> 0:12:59.760 out now you can come for anything, you know that, 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:01.839 And you know I don't. I don't care at it. 0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:06.480 Of course he convinced us to pick up Chris Martin 0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:09.680 over Steve c Check. Yes, I also supported. It doesn't 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:12.400 look great supported it. I'm pretty sure I was on 0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:16.000 team c Check. I picked him up in the man. Yeah, 0:13:16.000 --> 0:13:17.560 I thought he had a little bit more staying power. 0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:19.360 I mean, there's there's a lot of mounts there in 0:13:19.400 --> 0:13:22.120 Texas with the clerk, and now Sean Kelly is back, 0:13:22.200 --> 0:13:24.920 and I guess there's a lot in Chicago as well. 0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:28.760 But a they're gonna win more games, and Becheck has 0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:30.440 done a pretty damn good job, so I think if 0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:32.520 he continues to do well, they might just leave him 0:13:32.520 --> 0:13:33.800 in the closed role for the rest of the season. 0:13:34.520 --> 0:13:36.880 That's kind of like pick your poison, you know. Yeah. 0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:39.640 And then with c Check last night, the Cubs had 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:42.040 a savor opportunity. But the night before he went like 0:13:42.120 --> 0:13:44.679 what two and a third innings pitched, so he was 0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:47.920 not available last night. And what happens, Brad Brock comes 0:13:47.960 --> 0:13:50.439 in to close the game out for the Cubbies, and 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:53.319 he blows it that just further in trance to Steve Schick. 0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:56.560 And the best thing about that for the Cubs, as 0:13:56.600 --> 0:13:58.880 it really turns out when patro stroke if Peter Show 0:13:58.920 --> 0:14:01.760 comes back, when if Brandon morro goes back, looking after 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:04.959 they go into that role has seemingly run away with it. 0:14:05.000 --> 0:14:07.160 How many times have we heard this before? Greg where oh, 0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:10.280 once this reliever is back from injury, he's no doubt 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:13.240 gonna take the closer role back. And they find someone 0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:17.760 who's performing so well in the role. And Patriot Strope 0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:19.600 had a ton of experience as a setup man anyway, 0:14:19.680 --> 0:14:22.200 So I don't think they're gonna mess with this. By 0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:24.840 the way, she's like quick for you here. Malex Smith 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:27.800 had three strikeouts last night, up to one seventy two 0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:31.640 the average. So all right, so him and Jose Ramirez 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:34.560 neck and neck for player of the year. There you go, 0:14:35.200 --> 0:14:38.680 um to Meckham, Chris is ninth homer here, you don't 0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:42.160 have anymore right dropped him? Oh yeah, he's gone. I 0:14:42.600 --> 0:14:46.800 got Travis instead. He was three for four. He's starting 0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:49.200 to lose playing time to the team. Just called shed 0:14:49.280 --> 0:14:52.000 long back up as well. It looks like Ryan Healey 0:14:52.120 --> 0:14:54.640 might hit the I L So there's a lot of 0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:56.800 mouse here with TIAD and I think as the season 0:14:56.840 --> 0:14:58.280 goes along, they want to see what they have. And 0:14:58.320 --> 0:15:00.400 some of these young players j P crawl for shed 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:02.760 long as well, so I don't really have a problem. Plus, 0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:05.040 tattle Seeker is gonna be back soon too. And if 0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:07.560 you play in deeper leagues, I am stashing him in 0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:09.800 the Great Fantasy Baseball Invitation. I think I picked him 0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:11.760 up for like three bucks out of a thousand and 0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:14.320 past week. So if you're playing the deeper league AO 0:15:14.440 --> 0:15:16.360 only or like a fifteen team mix and you need 0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:17.920 a corner infielder, I think now is the time to 0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:20.360 statch Kyle Seeger. You're gonna be back within I believe 0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:22.760 the next week. Right. Elvis Andrew is also in the 0:15:22.840 --> 0:15:26.040 same game. We heard he's on a rehab assignment starting today. 0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:28.200 He went on the last week with a hamstot injury. 0:15:28.360 --> 0:15:30.280 You thought that might have been three to four weeks. 0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:32.360 It looks like he could be back as soon as 0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:35.920 this weekend, if not next week, which means good news. 0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:38.760 It was Elvis Andrew's owners out there. Um he's been 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:43.440 one of the survivor surprise shortstops. Of the season, certain ridiculous. 0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:47.360 Seegar comes back, will it be Beckham moving? I don't think. 0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:49.920 I don't see JP Crawford holding down the shortstop job 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:52.560 like Beckham. My Place show. They traded for him, right, 0:15:52.640 --> 0:15:54.440 so I think that they want to see what they 0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:57.760 have it. They technically traded for Beckham too, did they 0:15:58.080 --> 0:16:00.600 Did they sign him? No, they traded for him. They 0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:07.400 traded with Baltimore for who. Look, JAP Crawford is younger, 0:16:07.600 --> 0:16:10.200 you know that, and he did have not hitting well though, 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:12.240 well you know Tim Beckham did that prospect pedigree too. 0:16:12.240 --> 0:16:13.920 But I'm sorry, you're right they signed him in January. 0:16:13.960 --> 0:16:16.920 I apologize. So they traded for JP Crawford and that 0:16:17.040 --> 0:16:19.240 was part of that Jane Sigura trade. So I think, 0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:21.120 if anything, they want to see what they have in him. 0:16:21.240 --> 0:16:23.120 It might be a split, but I would imagine it's 0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:26.560 probably JP Crawford getting more of the point and Beckham. 0:16:26.600 --> 0:16:28.640 Beckham had five abbuys that last night. You're right, three 0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:32.520 for four, big, But like, can he keep doing it consistently? 0:16:32.560 --> 0:16:34.480 If he does, he could hold down that job. I 0:16:34.560 --> 0:16:36.600 think where to take a break. When we come back, 0:16:36.640 --> 0:16:40.560 the Mets get a much needed victory over Patrick Corbyn. Finally, 0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:45.080 that was good. We mentioned one of our bets from 0:16:45.120 --> 0:16:47.600 yesterday when we get into today's bets, but also the 0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:51.080 other bet from yesterday, which was Mike Szarroka doing Mikesaroka things. 0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:53.320 We'll mention him and where he falls on the range. 0:16:53.480 --> 0:16:56.200 All your best thing pictures in the MLB when we 0:16:56.320 --> 0:16:59.160 were serience Fantasy best Friends Forever a fantasy sports right 0:16:59.160 --> 0:17:07.480 you network Daily rododo dot Com.

And what are they 0:18:45.760 --> 0:18:49.120 gonna do? Cano No, they're not gonna make a trade Tomati, 0:18:49.280 --> 0:18:51.200 So they have to do something. That's the thing is 0:18:51.240 --> 0:18:55.000 when you're struggling and things are not going to write, okay, well, 0:18:55.040 --> 0:18:56.680 what are you gonna do? You gotta start up. So 0:18:56.760 --> 0:18:59.320 who's the first person to go? The manager week days 0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:01.720 to the four m Eastern on the Fantasy Sports Network 0:19:01.760 --> 0:19:13.720 and on your popular podcast providers. The BFFs live on 0:19:13.840 --> 0:19:17.120 the Fantasy Sports or in your network Frankie Stamford, the Closer, 0:19:17.480 --> 0:19:21.520 Chris Ventra hanging out as well. We mentioned yesterday our 0:19:21.640 --> 0:19:25.480 favorite debts of the day were The Twins and the 0:19:25.600 --> 0:19:30.760 Under That was Mine and the Combo, and then Frankie's 0:19:30.800 --> 0:19:34.000 was Mike Saroca taking on the San Francisco Giants and 0:19:34.040 --> 0:19:37.480 Alsa Rocca did was once again be awesome. Eight hits, 0:19:37.520 --> 0:19:41.400 I'm sorry, eight hings, two hits, one run, struck out seven. 0:19:41.480 --> 0:19:44.920 The only run he allowed him on a Brandon Crawford 0:19:45.119 --> 0:19:48.280 solo shot in the sixth. Only one other hit other 0:19:48.359 --> 0:19:50.879 than that. It was a marvelous performance. But because he 0:19:50.880 --> 0:19:54.200 allowed one run, his era actually went up slightly, which 0:19:54.280 --> 0:19:56.680 is crazy. The ear A now states at one point 0:19:56.840 --> 0:20:00.560 zero one coming on for the save Shaw on Newcomb 0:20:01.400 --> 0:20:03.920 after Luke j actually really pitched the day before. I 0:20:03.960 --> 0:20:07.560 don't know that's true as it is, but it's just 0:20:07.640 --> 0:20:12.000 thing unless really fell off. Mike Sarrocca five and one. 0:20:12.160 --> 0:20:16.239 Frank on the season. Mike Sarrocca is absolutely phenomenal. Man 0:20:16.359 --> 0:20:19.399 I tweeted out about this last night. I was not 0:20:19.560 --> 0:20:22.560 being too hard on myself. I legitimately hated myself in 0:20:22.640 --> 0:20:25.160 that moment for not having Mike Sarrocca I can't believe 0:20:25.240 --> 0:20:28.560 it because I was one of the biggest guys even 0:20:28.600 --> 0:20:31.000 from last year, but I was worried during the spring, 0:20:31.040 --> 0:20:33.879 and I think that's one of my biggest lessons from 0:20:33.920 --> 0:20:36.680 the spring. Greggy is normally I don't like to have 0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:39.560 injury optimism for guys who are hurt during spring training. 0:20:39.680 --> 0:20:41.360 But if you look at a lot of the guys 0:20:41.400 --> 0:20:45.520 who were hurt, they're perfectly fine right now and they're awesome. 0:20:46.200 --> 0:20:49.080 Lindoor has come back and has been great. Tommy fam 0:20:49.200 --> 0:20:51.359 has been awesome for the season. He was dealing with 0:20:51.440 --> 0:20:55.160 a shoulder thing. Marcelo Zuna, aside from scaling a wall 0:20:55.200 --> 0:20:59.360 and then falling off and looking ridiculous awesome for fantasy purposes. 0:20:59.440 --> 0:21:02.600 Walker Bueler not as great consistent. He's coming around, but 0:21:02.720 --> 0:21:05.879 Mike Saroka was dealing with the shoulder injury. And all 0:21:05.960 --> 0:21:08.560 we kept hearing where the Braves have all these possible 0:21:09.160 --> 0:21:11.199 starting pitchers that could be in their rotation, all these 0:21:11.240 --> 0:21:13.679 different prospects, and they tried with this guy, and they 0:21:13.720 --> 0:21:15.200 tried with that guy, and to try with that guy, 0:21:15.720 --> 0:21:17.800
