And I know the 0:00:45.479 --> 0:00:47.320 penuts and the cracker Jacks are here too. I know 0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:50.160 it's a holiday, so a lot of people are doing things. 0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:52.280 I know it's over the Easter weekend, and it got 0:00:52.320 --> 0:00:55.440 me thinking about the Easter weekend, Bogmin. It's kind of weird, 0:00:55.520 --> 0:00:57.120 isn't it. Then, all of a sudden, like you know, 0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:00.520 I understand the religious aspect of the holiday. I know 0:01:00.600 --> 0:01:03.200 Passover is going on as well. How did we get 0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:04.880 to the buddies. 0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:05.920 And chocolate eggs? 0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:09.120 How did that all somehow become part of this That's 0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:10.360 one thing that I'm curious about. 0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:13.200 Have you ever heard Gaffigan's joke about this. He's like, 0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:16.399 let's see, Jesus was resurrected. What should we do for that? 0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:17.360 How about eggs? 0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:19.399 What? All right? 0:01:19.600 --> 0:01:22.120 We'll hide him, you know, all right, we'll hide him. 0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:25.680 I think it's supposed to be fertility, you know, rabbits. 0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:29.280 That's what I said too. It's spring, its fertility. But 0:01:29.319 --> 0:01:31.880 then they became chocolate, and I'm fine with that. 0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:32.080 There. 0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:34.920 It's still American, Joe. It's still got to be American. 0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:37.320 So whatever we have, add some good food on top 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:39.560 of it. Right, That's why you have a nice dinner 0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:42.840 or you know, Sunday Eastern Brunch or whatever it is 0:01:43.200 --> 0:01:44.000 on Eastern, Right. 0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:47.039 I love brunch. I love brunch. Can't it off brunch? 0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:51.520 Brunch and bottomless Mimosa's guy? Is that you all day long? 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:53.320 Brunch all day, baby. 0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:55.120 Rose all day, Joe. 0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:58.440 Let's go brunch all day, dude. 0:01:59.080 --> 0:02:00.840 I'm down for brunch any day of the week, and 0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:03.800 twice on Sundays, Baby, I'll do that morning eleven am 0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:05.680 and the two o'clock brunch if you're can invite me 0:02:05.720 --> 0:02:07.640 to both. I was bummed though, because I thought at 0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:10.400 the store I would find like the discounted Reese's peanut 0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:11.360 butter eggs, you know, like. 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.320 Oh yeah, yeah, none the shelves. 0:02:14.360 --> 0:02:17.440 I was already at your store waiting, So the second 0:02:17.520 --> 0:02:19.799 they put him on discount, I bought them all. 0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:22.280 So I go around the country buying them all. 0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:24.960 So all the head was a white chocolate one. I 0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:26.600 was like, I don't want the white chocolate peanut butter. 0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:28.239 I get that stuff out of here. 0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:30.760 But we're gonna talk baseball at some point today, and 0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:33.640 obviously there's a lot to get through, so I might 0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:35.800 as well start with the big headlines. Let's start with 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:38.200 a good news, good vibe. C J abrams Slugg's first 0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:40.520 career home run Thursday, so a big fan of that. 0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:43.840 Roald Acunia begins his rehab assignment next week. That is 0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:47.240 very exciting, Bogman. What's your expectations here for Acuna on 0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:50.480 this return? Hopefully you know, by the end of the month, 0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:54.400 maybe kind of sort of we're seeing him, but I mean, Acunya, 0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:56.679 does he go back right to being that dude again 0:02:56.760 --> 0:02:57.880 or do you think it's gonna take a little bit 0:02:57.919 --> 0:02:58.320 more time. 0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:00.320 I think he at least goes to hitting one key 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:01.400 he did before. 0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:04.480 I think the stolen bases might be something that get 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:07.760 a little bit left in the cold there. But yeah, 0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:11.280 I think that as far as hitting, I expect him 0:03:11.280 --> 0:03:12.919 to be back. I mean, I think he was probably 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:14.440 okay to play a couple of weeks ago. 0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:17.560 But they're handling with kid gloves. He's their superstar. 0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:20.560 They's dropped up, you know, a whole boltload of money 0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:22.800 on him, so let's just make sure he's one hundred 0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:25.000 percent before he goes. So I think maybe the tailor 0:03:25.080 --> 0:03:28.720 back is his swipes to start, But you know, three 0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:31.440 weeks after he comes back, he will be the absolute 0:03:31.480 --> 0:03:33.440 normal Ronald Lacuna that we're used to seeing. 0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:36.880 Yep, And if you got many Kata draft discount, you 0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:38.160 should be very very grateful. 0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:39.520 I don't have any shares this year. 0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:41.880 I have won, but I didn't get it at a 0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:44.320 discount because it was the week where they're like, he 0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:46.960 could be back on April first, if we start then 0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:50.360 I was like, well, that's fine, that's let's go. Let's 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:52.400 go get him. Well, yeah, go get him. 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:53.040 It's only go. 0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:54.600 He got to match a couple of weeks without him, 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:56.440 and it's currently gonna be worth having him the rest 0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:58.720 of the season. Many Machado had five hits and two 0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:01.200 stone base against the Braves. Huge day for him, Great 0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:02.880 day for Joe Musgrove, who was a guy that we 0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:04.200 loved yesterday in DFS. 0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:05.960 He was my favorite pitcher of the day. 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:07.600 I know the other side of the game didn't work 0:04:07.600 --> 0:04:09.600 out so well. We'll get to that later showy Otani 0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:11.720 allowed six runs and a loss to the Rangers. 0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:14.080 Oh no, the sky is falling. 0:04:14.920 --> 0:04:17.440 It also looks like Jonathan India is going to be 0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:20.479 tenuous here for the weekend with a hamstring injury. Say 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:24.200 might play Saturday. Keep an eye on this, make plans go. 0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:26.760 Look out there for guys on the waiver wire who 0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:29.120 are playing second base, just to head your bets, especially 0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:29.440 if you're the. 0:04:29.480 --> 0:04:30.559 Daily transaction leagues. 0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:33.719 Pick up somebody now, don't wait because then the longer 0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:35.599 you wait, Like, I don't care if it's an Adam Frasier, 0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:38.160 I don't care if it's you know, Robinson Cano. I mean, 0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:40.160 there's some guys at the second base waiver wire you 0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:44.000 could pick up. Will Smith's three run homer powers the 0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:47.200 Dodgers over the Reds, and Javier Bayez will not play 0:04:47.480 --> 0:04:49.479 due to some thumb soreness, so already a little bit 0:04:49.520 --> 0:04:50.720 of injury there. 0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:53.839 So bog Met anything here from the headlines that catches. 0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:57.159 Your eye, well, I can't see thumb injury in Detroit 0:04:57.160 --> 0:05:00.160 and not think of Joel Zamaya, so you know, just 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:04.040 just you know a little bit of you know, history 0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:07.080 in my brain there. I think the big thing here 0:05:07.279 --> 0:05:12.240 is Manny Machado, you know, just playing so well. I 0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:14.880 hate it because I'm not the biggest Many Machado fan, 0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:17.359 but I did draft him in a couple spots, so 0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:19.719 he is paying off for me as well. And this 0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:22.960 Padres lineup is pretty good and their schedule has been 0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:25.559 easy so far because they should have swept the d Backs. 0:05:25.600 --> 0:05:30.240 Thank you Seth Beer for ruining that. But the moment though, yeah, 0:05:30.440 --> 0:05:32.240 oh it was a great moment, So probably the only 0:05:32.320 --> 0:05:34.479 great one I'll have as a d Bat fan this year, 0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:36.720 so I'll take it. At least I was there for 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:40.320 that one. So but but yeah, Manny Machado going yard 0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:43.279 is great. I mean, Will Smith is coming around start out, 0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:45.840 you know, just a little bit slow. I am just 0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:48.919 not worried about show Hail Tani with the CPR and 0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:51.000 the bat and the one bad start and all that 0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:53.560 good stuff. If he's struggling by the end of the month, 0:05:53.600 --> 0:05:55.520 all right, we could talk about show hal Tony then, 0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:57.520 but he's still an awesome pitcher. 0:05:57.800 --> 0:05:58.400 Got rocked a. 0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:00.599 Little bit with the Rangers. I think some of these 0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:03.279 guys are tipping pitches. You know, some of these guys 0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:08.400 are bad. I think you know Urias had a lower velocity, 0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:10.400 so does Shane Bieber. Those are guys to worry about. 0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:12.680 Everybody else. I'm just not too worried about right now. 0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:16.000 Unless we start hearing about a major dip in velocity, 0:06:16.080 --> 0:06:17.440 I am just not worried yet. 0:06:17.560 --> 0:06:18.520 The season's too long. 0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:20.880 I agree. I agree, the velocity thing is the thing 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:22.320 to keep an eye on. Also, this is. 0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:23.600 Also at that time of year two where guys go 0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:25.640 through that dead arm period two where they just don't 0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:27.600 seem to have the location they want and things like that. 0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:29.280 So why I wouldn't worry about that. This is why 0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:31.159 I love the Peanuts and the cracker Jacks. Wonky Penguin 0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:33.719 says white chocolate is the left handed catchers of candy. 0:06:34.320 --> 0:06:34.840 Well done. 0:06:35.120 --> 0:06:36.719 Can I get that on a T shirt? I want 0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:38.400 that on a T shirt now. I love the peanuts 0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:40.440 and the cracker Jacks. All right, let's move on to 0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:43.720 the next section of today's show, and there's no Daily 0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:45.680 kwand today we're gonna take a break from the Daily Kwan. 0:06:46.279 --> 0:06:48.600 But we do have a Jared Kellnick sighting. 0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:51.400 Holy crap, Jared Kelnick got a hit, a too run 0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:54.160 home run, no less, in a five to one of 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:57.360 victory for the Mariners over the White Sox. There and 0:06:57.400 --> 0:06:59.240 I put this picture of him here in our show 0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:02.080 sheet here where you look like he's from a Hype 0:07:02.120 --> 0:07:05.000 Williams video in the mid to late nineties. 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:07.200 I don't know what what kind of card is this 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:08.240 that he's on. 0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:11.720 I mean, it is very very it looks like, I 0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:14.200 don't know, it looks like if you mix to Glamour 0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:16.320 Shots with a rave is what it looks like. 0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:20.480 Yeah, it's like Missy Elliott went to glamour shots. That's 0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:21.680 kind of what this pier is. 0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:24.600 It's a good comp Joey, the Missy Elliott one right here, 0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:28.920 that's a that's a solid one. I'm look, I'm worried 0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:32.440 about Kalnick. I don't have any shares of him. You know, 0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.680 we know that this guy is obviously a very streaky player. 0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:38.720 I mean, if you didn't know, spoiler alert, guy has 0:07:38.760 --> 0:07:41.520 been very, very streaky. But he is still working his 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:44.800 way up to last year's miserable average of what was 0:07:44.840 --> 0:07:47.080 a one eighty seven last year one eight one. He's 0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:49.720 sitting one fifty eight even with this homer and a 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:50.400 couple of swipes. 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:52.480 Do I think he's gonna get right? Absolutely? 0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:54.560 Do I think he's going to be unbelievably frustrating to 0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:55.720 roster this season? 0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:56.960 Yeah? Probably. 0:07:57.040 --> 0:07:59.880 That just seems like what Jared Kalnick is in the 0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:02.080 story of him so far in his big league career. 0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:03.760 So good luck. 0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:06.320 One ticket on that. 0:08:07.440 --> 0:08:10.320 Yeah, it's like Mayor is gonna go ahead and post 0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:13.000 that picture of Kellnik.

Thank you, Joe Well I try. 0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:43.480 Let's talk about this. Is anyone more beloved universally in 0:08:43.480 --> 0:08:44.199 Major League Baseball? 0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:44.880 And Freddie Freeman? 0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:47.040 I mean, gez he it's that double when he's out 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:50.200 there taking a takeing his helmet off and get the 0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:52.280 standing ovation from the crowd. That was the first game, 0:08:52.280 --> 0:08:55.440 and everyone's excited about him. But that is a legitimate question. 0:08:55.480 --> 0:08:58.280 It's Freddy Freeman the most likable guy in baseball box. 0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:02.520 Likable, Yes, I think probably the most likable. 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:03.839 Just a great dude. O. 0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:06.080 God, I can't believe I'm saying this about a Dodger, 0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:10.000 but just a great dude and an unbelievable talent as well. 0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:13.839 But uh, he ain't loved by Ronald l'acuna and some 0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:16.280 of them guys in the in the Braves locker room. 0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:19.040 I'm sure for being a heart o and all that stuff. 0:09:19.080 --> 0:09:21.200 And look, I know a couple of Braves fans that 0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:24.000 are mad at him, uh for for leaving Atlanta and 0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:26.360 taking more money in LA and all that good stuff. 0:09:26.440 --> 0:09:29.880 So uh, I think he's absolutely likable. He's so much 0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:32.240 fun to watch and I love it whenever he's miked up. 0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:33.800 You know, the dude is just a fun guy. 0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:34.440 He see. 0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:37.120 He seems like the guy that no one in baseball 0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:39.040 outside of Ronald Ucuna hates. 0:09:39.400 --> 0:09:42.679 So uh yeah, I wonder about Rondalcuny a little bit. 0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:46.400 Sure, Sure, but also you got to remember, if Acuna 0:09:46.440 --> 0:09:48.320 is coming up as a young guy and Freddie's the 0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:51.400 guy on him about you know I black and nonsense, 0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:53.120 of course he's gonna dislike that guy. 0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:56.800 So uh, I don't. I don't dislike Ronald Lacunya, uh 0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:58.560 for that at all. I get it. 0:09:58.600 --> 0:10:00.640 But yeah, I mean, look, you can just you can 0:10:00.679 --> 0:10:03.160 watch a fifteen minute highlight video of Freddie Freeman goofing 0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:05.600 around with guys at first base, like he grabs them 0:10:05.600 --> 0:10:08.200 by the pants and stuff. Remember I think he slid 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:12.080 in the second and knocked the ball out of somebody's hands. 0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:14.120 I think maybe the season Hernandez, I can't remember, but 0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:16.720 knocking the ball out of somebody's hands as cab baby. 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:19.760 But he's just he's a fun dude to be around, 0:10:19.800 --> 0:10:24.040 and it's infectious his you know, his smile and he's 0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:26.400 just yeah yeah and look in and wins. 0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:28.560 So it's hard to dislike Freddy Freeman. 0:10:28.640 --> 0:10:30.440 I mean, I do because he's on the Dodgers, But 0:10:30.480 --> 0:10:34.800 other than that, he's pretty good dude. Also, it's funny 0:10:34.800 --> 0:10:37.920 how conveniently Welsh always disappears after an over five fire 0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:40.880 bucks in day or in a day where Mackenzie Corps 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:43.360 gets called up to make a start in Major League Baseball. 0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:47.959 His debut is now today against those same Atlanta Braves 0:10:47.960 --> 0:10:50.320 that we were talking about, former home of Freddy Freeman. 0:10:50.480 --> 0:10:53.280 So your expectations for this first start, if. 0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:55.839 People have him on their rosters, would you be throwing 0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:57.400 him out there against the Braves or you just got 0:10:57.400 --> 0:10:58.760 to keep them on the bench and wait and see. 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:00.719 I think I keep him on the number one. 0:11:00.760 --> 0:11:03.160 He's probably gonna be fairly limited as far as pitch 0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:06.320 count innings, so you know, I don't know that you're 0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:10.319 gonna get so much from him anyway, but I do 0:11:10.480 --> 0:11:12.560 there's a lot writing on this. You know, if the 0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:16.160 Padres are going to need to trade for someone at 0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:19.560 some point because they're in contention, Mackenzie Gore is probably 0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:21.560 going to be the big chip that they trade. So 0:11:22.120 --> 0:11:24.840 this could this could be also just sliding him into 0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:28.640 the rotation, making himself untradeable and part of a you know, 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:31.640 good team that's gonna push for the playoffs this season. 0:11:31.760 --> 0:11:35.120 So there's a lot writing on this start, probably way 0:11:35.160 --> 0:11:37.760 more than a normal first start for a pitcher coming 0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:40.360 up in the BIGS. But we've also been waiting for 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:43.240 this for a while, so hopefully he pulls through and 0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:46.600 pitches a good one and can provide us some value 0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:48.760 in fantasy and maybe some value to the Padres down 0:11:48.800 --> 0:11:49.240 the line. 0:11:49.960 --> 0:11:52.600 You make a great point about the trade value he has, 0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:56.040 and to me, in redraft leagues, if you can trade 0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:57.080 him off that you do it. 0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:00.320 If you can get him cheap, you do that as well. 0:12:00.360 --> 0:12:01.200 I mean kind of look at that. 0:12:01.240 --> 0:12:03.480 Even if he has a bad start today, I still 0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:06.000 think he is the best chip you have to trade 0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:08.880 for something if you're the Padres to improve the offense, 0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:10.480 let's say, or whatever else you want to do. And 0:12:10.520 --> 0:12:13.319 if that happens, he's probably gonna start every fifth day 0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:15.160 for some other team. He might not start every fifth 0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:17.880 day for the Padres when everybody's collectively healthy, But we 0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:20.600 don't have clarity yet on Clevenger. We're not exactly sure 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:23.480 if everybody else is gonna be you know, healthy enough 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:26.839 or they're gonna need seven starters. I mean, Martinez looked 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:28.240 pretty good in that first one too. I've got a 0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:30.640 lot of shares at him for free because I just want. 0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:32.400 I love doing this every year. I love taking a 0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:34.959 picture that is a good spring where there's some sort 0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:37.880 of really positive things, like you know, he went overseas 0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:39.000 and he had a good run there. 0:12:39.160 --> 0:12:41.479 I just kinda want to see because it's free. 0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:44.760 And the same thing mentality hid with Carlos Roddon last year, 0:12:45.559 --> 0:12:48.480 Mitch Haniger, like, I think we have to pay more 0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:50.600 attention to those free square guys at the end of 0:12:50.640 --> 0:12:53.720 So Marle Kelly for me, my boy Merle Meryl Kell. 0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:57.480 I call him Merle like they did in Walking Dead, 0:12:57.760 --> 0:12:59.680 Merle Merle Kelly. 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:03.480 So let's get to the stat heroes. 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:06.840 Joe Musgrove leads off with the six k's against the 0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:09.560 Braves nowhere and runs seven Reno. Good start from him 0:13:09.760 --> 0:13:13.280 against the Blue Jays. So for Vlad after a crazy 0:13:13.360 --> 0:13:16.200 day at the plate the day before. So that's baseball. 0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:17.040 But that's baseball. 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:19.160 You get baseball. I mean, that's baseball. 0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:22.599 But also, isn't he isn't he the first guy to 0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:24.280 hit three homers and go oh for four to the 0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:26.640 next day with two strikeouts or whatever it was. So 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:29.959 that's baseball. But it's also a little history. So there 0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:30.240 you go. 0:13:30.800 --> 0:13:33.000 It's a little history. It's it's the ebbs and flows 0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:34.640 of the game. You can't get too high, can't get 0:13:34.679 --> 0:13:37.000 too low. But very important for everybody who took a 0:13:37.000 --> 0:13:39.600 shot on Severino this year. This is a big win 0:13:39.720 --> 0:13:41.959 for him and a really good start against the Blue Jays. 0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:43.040 That's super important. 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:46.680 Five innings, also just two strikeouts though for Brandon Woodriff, 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:49.720 Logan Gilbert four k's over the win against the White Sox. 0:13:49.720 --> 0:13:51.600 He looked sharp and that start had a big strikeout 0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:54.320 there of Lewis Robert in a big spot. Two saw 0:13:54.320 --> 0:13:59.040 that yesterday. Kevin Gossman nine k's, no walks, but did 0:13:59.120 --> 0:14:02.439 lose to the Yankees, but still another guy important start 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:05.200 here because there were some questions circling around Kevin Gosman 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:07.360 towards the end of last year. This was a very 0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:09.720 important start for him. Seven hits given up by Sandy 0:14:09.760 --> 0:14:13.079 al Contra with five k's limited the Phillies to only 0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:15.760 two earned runs, and then Cole Irvin with two k's 0:14:15.760 --> 0:14:18.200 in a win over the Rays and six and the third. 0:14:18.240 --> 0:14:20.720 And on the hitting side we had mannam Minchad's huge 0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:25.200 five for six day, Jonathan High. Oh, Jonaheim, uh is 0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:30.640 three for four Jonaheim. I think he's just it's the Jonaheim. 0:14:30.720 --> 0:14:32.920 It's like ty Lord McGill and Yonaheim. 0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:36.240 You know it's like in the Yonaheim sounds like a 0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:37.200 bad german beer. 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:39.120 Oh no, you know what it sounds like. 0:14:39.200 --> 0:14:41.280 I know what it sounds like, isn't those Those are 0:14:41.280 --> 0:14:43.720 the guys in Lord of the Rings where they made 0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:44.440 the extra guys. 0:14:44.480 --> 0:14:47.600 There's the Jodenheims. Right. They weren't like more than Orc's 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:49.440 almost positive. 0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:51.720 They were called I'm pretty nerdy, Joe, but you are 0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:53.320 going down a further role. 0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:56.160 I thought if anybody would have saved me on this reference. 0:14:55.800 --> 0:14:58.480 To you, I'm not a Lord of the Rings guy. 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.600 So you're a nerd but not of the Lord of 0:15:01.600 --> 0:15:02.160 the Rings guy. 0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:03.040 How does sorry, I'm not. 0:15:03.120 --> 0:15:05.400 I've never watched one Harry Potter movie either or read 0:15:05.440 --> 0:15:08.600 a book, so you know that's uhty good. 0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:09.600 The books are pretty good. 0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:11.120 You've told me as many times. 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:14.280 I'll probably eventually get there, but we're just not there yet. 0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:16.600 So did you start watching last Kingdom. Yet, like I 0:15:16.600 --> 0:15:19.680 told you now, I haven't got to it right. That's 0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:22.760 just started base just started baseball. Start it just started baseball, 0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:25.320 all right. Dan vogelback four for six, one home run 0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:28.479 for him. Eric Hosmer with a day. Boy, that Padre offense. 0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:29.280 Just exploded yesterday. 0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:32.920 Through seven games of Eric Hosmer for sixty two batting average, 0:15:33.040 --> 0:15:36.560 eleven fifty four ops, no home runs. But that's Eric Cosmer. 0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:38.880 So it's great that he's hot now. But Eric Osmer 0:15:39.000 --> 0:15:41.040 is harek Osmer. Don't go crazy on the waiver wire 0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:42.600 trying to pluck him off thinking that you're gonna get 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:44.200 like a thirty home run season from him or some 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:45.000 like amazing year. 0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:45.800 It's not gonna happen. 0:15:46.000 --> 0:15:48.200 Brian Reynolds two for three with a dinger. Will Smith 0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:50.840 we mentioned before, had the big day. Also, j t 0:15:50.960 --> 0:15:52.800 rel Mucha with a four for four and a steel 0:15:53.000 --> 0:15:53.560 How about this? 0:15:53.640 --> 0:15:58.040 I love this stat. Adam Butt the Monday, Oh my day. 0:15:59.120 --> 0:16:05.840 No Jonaheim two stolen bases, oh for three. He has 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:08.480 a buck forty three batting average through six games, but 0:16:08.920 --> 0:16:09.720 he's got three. 0:16:09.560 --> 0:16:13.000 Steals, which is why, once again Roto is dumb to 0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:14.280 Joey P. Your thoughts. 0:16:14.720 --> 0:16:18.120 Well, look as far as Mindusy goes, it's you know 0:16:18.880 --> 0:16:21.960 there there is no one streak here in the Biggs 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:24.640 than mind to see because he will absolutely drag your 0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:26.240 average and everything down. 0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:28.960 But you know, uh, he will go. 0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:31.320 You know, he wins you a league that last month, 0:16:31.400 --> 0:16:33.800 especially in head to head, he'll win you a league. 0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:35.600 So what does this say? 0:16:36.600 --> 0:16:41.240 It says j full metal jack full medal says Gondor 0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:45.360 calls for aid. So did Joey P. Called for Scott's aid, 0:16:45.480 --> 0:16:48.600 but Scott did not pick up. That's and Mike Maher 0:16:48.960 --> 0:16:52.479 found it. It's the Richai but I named the Jonaheim jonah. 0:16:52.240 --> 0:17:03.920 Heii okay, all right, yeah, thanks Mayor neud I'm just kidding, guys. 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:06.119 I love nerdy stuff too. I just haven't got around that. 0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:09.080 You're the biggest nerd I know. And that's why it's weird. 0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:09.320 One. 0:17:09.560 --> 0:17:12.160
