It's a Monday. 0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:52.560 We bring in an amazing guest who has the energy 0:00:52.640 --> 0:00:56.160 level of I don't know, like I would say a 0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:59.680 toddler birthday party. That's the level of energy that Michael 0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:02.040 Gove always brings. He's one of my favorite people. He's 0:01:02.080 --> 0:01:04.600 the host of the Palazzo podcast. You can follow him 0:01:04.600 --> 0:01:08.240 on Exit MJ Govier go Vier. It's so great to 0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:10.360 see you, buddy. I missed you. I love the energy, 0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:13.000 I love your excitement. Baseball is almost here, buddy. Are 0:01:13.000 --> 0:01:16.040 you ready for it? Because it's like ten days away. 0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:19.399 Now I'm feeling it. It's great to be here, Joe. 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:22.040 It's been too long. I'm so glad to speak baseball 0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:23.479 with you again. In fact, I think the last time 0:01:23.480 --> 0:01:25.399 we did it, we were doing an outfielder preview in 0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:28.360 twenty twenty two, and you may or may not have 0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:32.280 said Ilo Jimenez would be good. I never had what 0:01:32.600 --> 0:01:33.280 ever happened? 0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:35.560 I'm sure not the only person that thought that in 0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:37.399 twenty twenty two. I can tell you things. We're going 0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:39.440 in the right direction there. Unfortunately, not see you. 0:01:39.400 --> 0:01:42.399 What twenty twenty four, I still talk. 0:01:42.440 --> 0:01:45.040 I'm playing for a contract, Welsh. You're not playing for 0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:48.360 a contract. But we're coming fresh off of our incredible 0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:51.120 Fantasy Fest, which if you haven't seen it already, go 0:01:51.160 --> 0:01:53.520 to the YouTube channel.

Stanful 0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:00.640 was on there. We had Chris Towers on there, we 0:02:00.720 --> 0:02:04.560 had who else we ino, sarahs was on there, Steve Gardner, Welsh. 0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:08.080 I thought that that was just four incredible hours of 0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:10.840 talking fantasy baseball, and I think that all of our 0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:13.040 guests were just unbelievable. I think everybody needs to go 0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:15.320 run to the YouTube channel to watch all those in 0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:17.480 smaller forms.

Kelly Kirby was on 0:02:56.400 --> 0:02:59.160 the draft in the last hour, and they've given you 0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:01.760 a crap about your but and shirt. I mean, god, dude, 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:04.200 she's saying. Welsh looks like he's going to a mixer 0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:06.160 later today. Are you do you have a mixer later 0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:06.960 this afternoon. 0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:10.399 I will be on CBS Fantasy Baseball today later and 0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:13.000 I'm doing some more podcasts. No, I can't make anybody 0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:14.400 happy here. I wear the hats. 0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:15.200 Literally. 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:19.120 During Fantasy Fast we had someone welch, where's the where's 0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:22.400 the do? Where's it going back? I'm trying to dress nice, 0:03:22.600 --> 0:03:24.639 trying to do a little shirt. I think this is 0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:26.680 a big deal. I put the hair out, and now 0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:28.720 everybody thinks I'm going out for a date later. 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:30.880 I'm not. I don't know here. You take the wife 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:33.240 out somewhere nice, that'd be nice. Govier just dropped his 0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:36.000 wife off in Canada and then drove home for the draft. 0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:38.920 True story, folks, True story. He said it as though 0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:40.960 he was dropping her off at the grocery store. Dropping 0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:42.960 her off that's a happy marrow at her mother's house 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:44.480 or something like. I'll be right there. I just got 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:46.520 to drop my wife off in Canada. These are things 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:48.160 you say when you're in Michigan. By the way, JD, 0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:50.440 I see you. That's right. I did say, yeah, like 0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:52.640 La Knight and if you like the wrestling stuff, you 0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:54.680 know I got the wrestling show too. But today we've 0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:58.560 got a draft and it's serious stuff. Twelve team Rodo style, 0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:01.360 five by five old school. We just did the head 0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:03.440 to head last week, so we're going back to old 0:04:03.440 --> 0:04:05.839 school here, so we're gonna kick things off. Now. Go Via. 0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:08.560 You took this second spot here, which again the board 0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:11.080 was open. You could have had anywhere. You said, let 0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:13.040 somebody else have a Cunya. You did that. So year 0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:15.920 or two. Jurors is at the one spot. Mookie Betts 0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:20.719 Legacy Team is at three. Jam Considine is at four, 0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:23.440 Portland Pickles at five. I took the six spot, so 0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:25.640 I went from one to twelve. Now I'm at six today, 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:31.280 delve is at seven, DJs at eight, Mannik is at nine. 0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:33.720 Mister Buster, a friend of the show, one of our 0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:36.080 favorite folks at leading off is at ten, Nate Miller 0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:38.599 at eleven, and Welsh You took the twelve spot. So 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:40.920 Govia Why did you give up the number one spot 0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:42.800 when you could add everything? You could have had a Counya. 0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:43.920 You could have had it all I. 0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:47.039 Could have had, could have been a contender. Look, I 0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:50.080 just wanted to have the challenge of deciding on the 0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:52.200 two pick. There's been a lot of debate during the 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:55.360 preseason here about who should be number two after Acunya. 0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:57.599 You know, I'm not even gonna make some argument about 0:04:57.600 --> 0:04:59.320 Harry Well. Maybe it shouldn't be a Counya. Let's just 0:04:59.320 --> 0:05:02.160 skip all that and let's figure out should be Julio Rodriguez, 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:04.120 Should it be Bobby Witch? Should it be Mookie Betts, 0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:08.280 a short stop eligible superstar on the greatest team that 0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:10.160 the Lord himself ever assembled? 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:13.240 You're up? What are you doing? So make your pick? 0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:15.080 You only got a couple of seconds left there. I'm 0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:16.640 gonna pause it because I think you might not have 0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:17.720 realized that we started there. 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:19.920 So yeah, I think I got caught up with the Yeah, 0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:20.400 look at. 0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:23.280 What you have taken Bobby Witt Junior. I guess that's 0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:25.479 the question because it looks like I couldn't pause it 0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:29.440 in times. Gobe is like, I don't care, I'm going right. 0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:31.760 I wish you would have taken Mookie Betts in front 0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:34.520 of Mookiy Betts legacy team. That's really the only way 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:37.159 to do this draft is take the player that's in 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:39.400 someone's name. But that's okay, Bobby Wait is the correct 0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:40.279 number two pick. 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:43.800 I have a problem with the Bobby Wit selection either. 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:46.600 Lots of stolen bases, lots of everything. There By the way, 0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:48.120 this is why I love doing the live shows here 0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:50.920 with you guys, because r J and the Chad says, 0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:53.200 Welsh looks like he's going door to door asking if 0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:56.560 you've heard the good word? Have you? 0:05:57.160 --> 0:06:01.680 I'm I'm if you're spreading the good word of O'Neil Cruz. 0:06:01.760 --> 0:06:02.760 Have you heard of Onil? 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:06.919 I heard It's like that in the league where the 0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:10.680 Ruxton joins that cult for a while to get fantasy 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:12.479 internal wonderful. 0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:14.400 All sorts of pamphlets going on here, all right, So 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:16.559 I am up here at six, Kyle Tucker on the board. 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:19.040 Certainly good place to start. I feel good about that. 0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:22.000 In terms of the way the rosters are structured today, 0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:24.799 just to review for everybody, one catcher, first, second, third, 0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:28.320 short we're doing corner and middle infielders, we're doing one, two, three, 0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:30.960 four active outfielders in a util, so I'm gonna go 0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:33.360 with the outfielder Hurst of Tucker. We have nine open 0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:35.720 pitcher spots and we're only doing four bench spots because 0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:38.440 we're live today with the people hanging out. So just 0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:41.760 to recap the first round so far, Acunya one, Bobby 0:06:41.760 --> 0:06:47.360 Witt Junior, Mookie Betts, Julio Rodriguez, Corbyn Carroll, and Kyle Tucker. 0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:49.160 So I'm taking a page out of Klegg's book from 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:51.880 the other day where we had him on last week 0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:53.920 on Friday with him and Joel Rico. If you missed 0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:56.680 that draft show, go watch that one. But in that 0:06:56.720 --> 0:06:59.840 middle of six you're guaranteed to get a stud player again. 0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:03.200 So just went next here, DJ just took Freddy Freeman. 0:07:03.320 --> 0:07:06.359 So Welsh, what's your ideal turn here? And remember we 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:08.680 are live, so people were drafting with us, might be 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:10.160 watching and stealing your picks. 0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:13.160 Yeah, my deal turn is not looking at the chat 0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:15.880 everybody is just killing me. Hore by the way, said 0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:18.640 why you dress so fine today? Man? I need to 0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:20.200 dress up a little bit more. So it's not a 0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:23.880 big deal. So my idea, well, can I stall a 0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:25.800 little bit because Nate Miller's right in front of me. 0:07:25.840 --> 0:07:29.400 I mean, ideally we're to be get like Otani and Judge. 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:32.320 That would make me jump, you know, jump, jump, jump 0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:35.320 and rip off the shirt like whole Coogan. Oh but 0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:38.280 I don't think it's gonna happen. I love Stryder even 0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:40.559 in this spot, as he just went to mister Buster. 0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:44.560 So Otani and Judge they're the top players on the board, though, 0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:47.120 so I think I'm gonna get one of them, and 0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:49.360 oh my god, I'm I get both of them. Good 0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:54.200 things are happening today, folks. Trey Turner goes eleven, eleventh overall, 0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:56.920 so getting Judge at Otani is an ideal situation. I 0:07:56.920 --> 0:07:59.280 don't care about the DH only I moved Otani up. 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:02.640 I think my number eight overall player, seven overall player, 0:08:02.840 --> 0:08:05.080 Judge with the big power, even though he did not 0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:08.520 get into some actual practice today, It's okay. I am 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:11.640 going to slap all of that homer and all of 0:08:11.640 --> 0:08:15.360 that speed potential on Otani. So I'm very happy about that, 0:08:15.360 --> 0:08:15.760 all right, So. 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.200 Why Judge there? Govie? What do you think about Welsh 0:08:18.200 --> 0:08:18.800 a star here? 0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:20.840 I don't get the Judge part. I love the Otani part. 0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:23.160 In fact, I'm not kidding. I would have considered taking 0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:25.200 Otani too. I am not kidding. I think he's gonna 0:08:25.200 --> 0:08:28.080 be incredible this year as a hitter. But the Judge 0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:31.840 toe chronic problem old man time. I'm worried. Big body 0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:32.480 freaks me out. 0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:35.120 I like forty five to fifty homers. I'm pretty good 0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:37.080 with that. They've already said that he's going to be 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:39.520 good for opening Day, regardless of how they're babying him 0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:42.199 in stupid spring. Here the toe is something to consider. 0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:44.760 But here's this cool thing. It's called the DH and 0:08:44.880 --> 0:08:47.880 John Carlos Stanton lost a bunch of weight. Looks like 0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:49.679 they could throw him back out in the outfield if 0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:51.520 they need to, baby Judge, they can put him out 0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:53.640 of the DH. I'm taking some injury risk. I'm take 0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:56.280 a little risk with Otani, but I don't care. I 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:59.000 want a leap power. I want it early. I'll find 0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:01.959 my stolen bases late. I will take the discount and 0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:04.839 judge all day, including today. 0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:08.840 But sorry, Jordan is very powerful as well. 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:11.360 Yeah, I mean, I like the thirty five homers, but 0:09:11.480 --> 0:09:14.480 I don't think there is any less injury risk with 0:09:14.640 --> 0:09:16.760 Jordan Alvarez over Aaron Judge, you're gonna tell me that 0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:20.760 Jordan Alvarez is a better safer pick than Aaron Judge, 0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:23.599 I'm gonna lol, because they are both injury risks. So 0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:25.400 if I'm gonna take the power, I'm gonna take the 0:09:25.440 --> 0:09:27.319 guy who can hit the most homers in baseball. The 0:09:27.440 --> 0:09:29.400 argument really would have been Matt Olsen. By the way, 0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:31.320 if I if you want to make the big argument 0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:33.640 of power, go to Matt Olsen at first base. Get 0:09:33.640 --> 0:09:37.160 the elite stats there that I actually was kind of considering. 0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:39.920 But I'm not scared. I'm not gonna be scart, not scarred. 0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:42.679 All right, I'm gonna go ahead make my pick right now, 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:45.120 and then we'll recap the rest of it. Also, it 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:48.920 is season long rod this draft, So I think with Judge, 0:09:48.960 --> 0:09:50.400 even if he ends up playing one hundred and twenty 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:52.000 five hundred and thirty games, I think you still take 0:09:52.000 --> 0:09:54.240 the productivity there as opposed to the last draft we did, 0:09:54.240 --> 0:09:55.880 which is head to head, and it head to head, 0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:58.079 I'm where Govier is, which is like I'm not if 0:09:58.080 --> 0:09:59.920 I've got the whole board to myself there pretty much 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:02.720 the turn Judge is still one of those pieces in 0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:04.199 the back of my head. Still a little scary. I'm 0:10:04.200 --> 0:10:04.559 with you. 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:08.000 Yeah, you lose the playoffs. That stinks in heads, I. 0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:12.360 Agree there, Harper, Olsen, Ramirez, Alvarez, all those guys. But 0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:14.440 speaking of those guys, that's how they went there. Nate 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:17.640 Miller took Jose Ramirez at the two oh two, then 0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:20.880 Matt Olsen at two o three, Bryce Harper two four, uh, 0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:23.679 Jordan Alvarez at two oh five, and then two o 0:10:23.880 --> 0:10:27.200 six Austin Riley. I took Ozzie Albi's because everybody knows 0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:30.040 I love Albi's second basement. I've got my more stolen 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:32.839 bases there too. Second base falls off quite a bit. 0:10:32.920 --> 0:10:35.040 Plus we've got the middle infield spots to deal with 0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:37.680 later Rafield Devers at two to eight, Simeon at two nine. 0:10:38.040 --> 0:10:40.880 I kept debating Simeon or Albi's Welsh. Where do you 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:42.839 have those two in your rankings? Do you have Ozsi 0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:43.800 Albi's over Simeon? 0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:46.319 I have the that's a good question. I think I've 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:49.360 got Albi's one D spot above. I love Devers though 0:10:49.720 --> 0:10:53.280 the divers, I love him. I think he's super underrated, 0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:55.480 even though the guy's thirty five hundred hundred with a 0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:59.080 high batting average. But we all knew you were taking 0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:01.800 Ozzie Alby's that is your guy. Like of this year, 0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:04.680 Ozzy Albi's and Alex Bregman need to be on all 0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:05.320 of your teams. 0:11:05.400 --> 0:11:07.800 Yeah. Wow, I'm sure Joe Pisap is going to like 0:11:07.840 --> 0:11:08.240 my draft. 0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:10.520 But I will say I think here's here's my only 0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:13.800 caveat to Devers though. I think it is easier to 0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:16.719 get great second basement later in like Bryson Stott to 0:11:16.840 --> 0:11:19.360 tell Marte, than it is to get great third basement letter. 0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:22.280 So if you want to think it about the position eligibility, 0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:24.400 I would be paying attention just a tiny bit more 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:24.880 to Deavors. 0:11:24.920 --> 0:11:26.679 Well. See, I like that depth of third base too. 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:28.800 When you start to get to the Royce, Lewis Bregman grouping, 0:11:28.880 --> 0:11:31.839 I'm more apt to roll with those guys as well. Now, 0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:34.679 somebody in the chat I see also, because we've been 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:38.320 talking wrestling here wants me. I think it's John Shimmick 0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:40.320 wants me to make a pick in macho man voice, 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:42.200 So I will make the next one in macho man 0:11:42.280 --> 0:11:44.319 Randy Savage voice.

But we 0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:04.760 have picks to recap here, so let's go through them. 0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:07.800 After Devers and Simeon, Vlad Guerrero to ten Ellie de 0:13:07.880 --> 0:13:11.560 la Cruz, Francisco Lindor goes to go Vier. I'm sorry, 0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:15.679 no one more spot before go Vier. Lindor Alonso, then 0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:18.280 back to go Vier at three oh two. So Govier, 0:13:18.320 --> 0:13:21.120 you selected Ellie de la Cruz and Michael Harris at 0:13:21.160 --> 0:13:23.640 the end of the second, beginning of the third at 0:13:23.640 --> 0:13:25.120 three oh two, you got Harris. How do you feel 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:26.960 about wit Ellie Michael Harris in. 0:13:26.960 --> 0:13:28.680 The beginning of that bill all the stolen bases. 0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:32.760 Yeah, in the world of stolen bases, one man, Yeah, 0:13:32.800 --> 0:13:35.160 I had to get Ellie to me, Ellie de la Cruz. 0:13:35.200 --> 0:13:36.559 I'm not worried about the k Ray. He's going to 0:13:36.640 --> 0:13:38.480 get better. He's not going to strike out thirty two, 0:13:38.600 --> 0:13:41.840 three or three percent forever. And he's gonna steal arguably 0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:45.760 one hundred bases. I'm dead serious about that. And Michael Harris. 0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:48.080 I'm taking him over Luis Robert because I like the 0:13:48.120 --> 0:13:50.320 batting average better and I think there's more power for 0:13:50.320 --> 0:13:52.480 Michael Harris to come this season. Louis Roberts struck out 0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:54.680 one hundred and seventy two times last year. Michael Harris 0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:57.520 only struck out about one hundred. I'm taking Harris over Robert. 0:13:57.320 --> 0:13:59.440 All right, Looking at the rest of the board here, 0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:01.760 I am now up, which means I'm gonna go back 0:14:01.800 --> 0:14:04.480 to the drift Wizard. Yeah, we're gonna go back. We're 0:14:04.520 --> 0:14:08.400 gonna look at Gunner Henderson. Yeah, he qualifies at third base, 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:11.520 and its short stup. In a drift Wizard, the recommendations 0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:14.880 always rise to the top. That's right, can you dig it? 0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:17.440 It's cool. I'm gonna snip in at Gunner Henderson right here, 0:14:17.559 --> 0:14:19.640 take him right here. So Gunner Henderson at three zh six. 0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:23.120 That's my selection to recap picture in betweens. Louis Castillo, 0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:26.640 Luis Robert, Louis Corbyn Burns. Sorry, I just got into 0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:30.040 a groove there, just regular Corbyn Burns. So the second 0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:33.680 pitcher off the board, so so far wels just Strider, 0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:37.760 Corbyn Burns three point oh five. So I took Gunner Henderson, 0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:40.920 so I've got Albi's, I've got Henderson, I've got Tucker. 0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:44.360 That's the beginning of my build. Delvick selected Zach Wheeler. 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:47.080 So three pitchers, I'm sorry, four pitchers in three rounds. 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:49.560 Castillo did go in this round as well. So Welsh 0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:51.320 does that feel about right to in terms of like 0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:53.040 the amount of pictures that are now going off the 0:14:53.040 --> 0:14:54.640 board since the Garrett Cole news. 0:14:54.440 --> 0:14:57.840 I'm actually a little surprised because this was like the 0:14:57.840 --> 0:15:00.160 Battle of all right, are people scared because of the 0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:03.560 injuries or now there's one less ace off the board 0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:05.800 so we have to make sure we get them. I'm 0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:09.360 actually a little surprised we didn't have many more pitchers go. 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:13.400 And I'm patiently waiting for Nate Miller, who's about to pick, 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:17.040 because then I'm up and oh man, he took one 0:15:17.080 --> 0:15:18.600 of them. Pablo Lopez was one of those that was 0:15:18.600 --> 0:15:22.440 sitting out there. But Kevin Gossman. People are still a 0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:26.000 little bit scared about the little bit scared about the 0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:29.680 Kevin Gossman back injury. Oh dig it, I'm gonna go 0:15:29.840 --> 0:15:32.360 and double tap pitching here. I'm not gonna be scurred. 0:15:32.400 --> 0:15:34.520 I'm not gonna play skirt here. I mean, I don't 0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:37.800 like necessarily taking a lot of these guys right as 0:15:37.880 --> 0:15:40.440 the uh well, we know it's George kir and it 0:15:40.480 --> 0:15:42.800 is exactly right, it's Kevin Gosman and George Kirby's without 0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:46.240 setting up back to back pictures these two, I couldn't 0:15:46.280 --> 0:15:48.360 be more excited. I would have taken Pablo and Kirby. 0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:50.840 I didn't realize Gospwein was there. So I've got my 0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:54.400 two huge power bats. I've got my two huge aces. 0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:58.040 One is a big strikeout option. One is the whip King, 0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:00.920 who I think can be a top guy. We're in 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:03.920 the cycle of Welsh liking his draft. We're about three 0:16:04.000 --> 0:16:07.040 rounds away from me starting to talk crap and hate it. 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:09.480 So all right, Well that actually didn't happen last time. 0:16:09.520 --> 0:16:12.440 On Friday, I got gated, awfully, I think, and you 0:16:12.440 --> 0:16:14.760 you were eleventh out of tenth, out of. 0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:18.120 Twelve, eleven out of twelve, Thanks Joe. Sorry, Well you know, 0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:22.280 oh all right, I'm the winner. Look at me. I'm joking, Nikis. 0:16:22.360 --> 0:16:25.120 I learned about Eddie concerned about Kevin Gossman right now 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:26.800 in terms of injury. I mean, it's hard to pass 0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:28.440 up the I know you're going to take Kirby no 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:31.200 matter what, but Gossman still feels like a little bit 0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:32.760 of a risk. Is it the right amount of risk 0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:33.880 here at that moment for you? 0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:35.360 If it were, I mean, I think it's still the 0:16:35.360 --> 0:16:39.440 back stuff. If it were Ury Perez based arm issues, 0:16:39.480 --> 0:16:42.160 I would be exponentially more worried. But I will say this, 0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:45.520 let me throw on top with this pitching stuff. We 0:16:45.600 --> 0:16:48.840 lost Garrett Cole Uri Perez looks like he's gone. We 0:16:48.920 --> 0:16:52.040 still don't know. Blake Snell looks a little worrisome. There's 0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:54.240 more guys in the top twenty that are coming off 0:16:54.280 --> 0:16:57.800 of the board. That's lessening the group. So I'm prioritizing 0:16:57.800 --> 0:16:59.640 a little bit. If you're going to give me deals 0:16:59.800 --> 0:17:01.960 on top end pictures, I'm gonna take him. I'm taking 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:03.760 on a little bit adherent risk. I guess of the 0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:06.280 injury with Gosman isn't the type of injury that like 0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:10.080 terrifies me. So I am gonna grab a hold of 0:17:10.160 --> 0:17:13.160 two aces while a lot like we have twelve teams 0:17:13.200 --> 0:17:15.680 not everybody's gonna be able to get two top twenty pictures. 0:17:15.680 --> 0:17:17.000 I just did all right. 0:17:17.119 --> 0:17:17.280 Uh. 0:17:17.359 --> 0:17:20.159 John, by the way, Uh Shimmick was very happy with 0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:23.399 my Randy Savage. He said, nailed the Randy Savage mannerisms properly. 0:17:23.600 --> 0:17:24.120 Thank you, John. 0:17:24.119 --> 0:17:26.280 I appreciate it now and load though, Yeah, you kept 0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:27.600 it really kind of like do you. 0:17:27.560 --> 0:17:29.560 Want to like snick? John? I wanted to keep it 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:33.280 really low key when we're doing the drift, it's live. Yeah, 0:17:33.440 --> 0:17:37.080 you gotta you gotta keep it inter repts. 0:17:36.280 --> 0:17:39.919 It's always had a oh who is the oh, oh 0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:42.280 the comedian I just forgot his name. Oh, uh Sam 0:17:42.880 --> 0:17:43.760 Sam Kennison here. 0:17:43.960 --> 0:17:45.720 Oh, I was gonna say that Dan Soder Is that 0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:49.120 his name? That the comedian who doesn't amazing macha man. 0:17:49.200 --> 0:17:51.640 Randy always had a little Sam Kennison in him where 0:17:51.640 --> 0:17:53.560 he'd be, you know, like like laying it in or 0:17:53.760 --> 0:17:56.439 quiet and then oh like that. That was kind of 0:17:56.480 --> 0:17:57.040 Randy to me. 0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:03.359 Is coming up speed here. So we've got after Kirby, 0:18:03.520 --> 0:18:07.760 Zach Gallan, Randy Rose, Arena, Yamamoto, Logan Webb, Adolis Garcia. 0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:10.119 Then I took Tyler Glass now again, it was the 0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:12.200 recommendation guy, but it's also the guy that I want 0:18:12.200 --> 0:18:14.480 to take. There, the upsides there, the strikeouts there. He 0:18:14.520 --> 0:18:16.040 could end up a top five pitcher when all is 0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:18.439 said and done. He's just got a somehow. For the 0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:20.920 love of God, one time across one hundred and sixty innings, 0:18:20.920 --> 0:18:23.640 please c J. Abrams and Royce Lewis who I almost took, 0:18:23.680 --> 0:18:26.960 but I decided to go pitcher. So it was a 0:18:27.040 --> 0:18:32.600 Constantine there took that pick. Mookie Betts selected Tariq Scooble Govier, 0:18:33.240 --> 0:18:36.240 you took a catcher, Adlie Rutchman, you're up again. I'll 0:18:36.280 --> 0:18:38.680 let you make your other pick here while I keep recapping. 0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:41.640 At the turn, Framber Valdez goes to durs and then 0:18:41.680 --> 0:18:44.160 Aaron Nola, so they doubled up on starters. Go Vier, 0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:45.560 what are you gonna do with this pick? Twenty seven 0:18:45.640 --> 0:18:46.359 seconds on the clock. 0:18:46.960 --> 0:18:49.240 I got sniped on trek schoolball is one pick away. 0:18:49.520 --> 0:18:51.040 It would have been my dream to have him as 0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:53.560 by number one, not being a homer either. It's not 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:56.120 just because I'm the Go Tigers guy. I love him 0:18:56.400 --> 0:18:58.200 this year with Chris Fedder the pitching coach, he knows 0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:00.480 what he's doing, So for me now, I'm looking at 0:19:00.480 --> 0:19:02.439 pitching and I'm like, oh boy, I really put myself 0:19:02.440 --> 0:19:04.800 in a spot here. So I'm gonna take a closer 0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:06.160 that could trust Camillo Daval. 0:19:06.359 --> 0:19:08.840 There you go. Okay, So Camilla Daval off the board? Here? 0:19:08.920 --> 0:19:11.760 Was that the first closer? I believe it was. It 0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:14.960 may be I'm looking correctly at the board, it was, Well, 0:19:15.040 --> 0:19:16.400 how do you feel about that? Is that the right 0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:19.199 answer for first closer off the board? Or is it 0:19:19.200 --> 0:19:22.000 a hater or a Diaz? It was Camillo d'vall instead 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:24.080 of Hater or Diaz or las. 0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:28.280 Yeah, I mean I have said that. I think Davall 0:19:28.560 --> 0:19:32.080 is in the grouping like he's the inn. See that's 0:19:32.119 --> 0:19:34.399 not my pick. Hater is my pick here or Edwin Diaz. 0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:36.520 But Daval is in that tier of like if I 0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:38.200 don't get him, then it's like, well, I'm gonna wait 0:19:38.200 --> 0:19:40.040 a little while, because I mean, Daval was at the 0:19:40.040 --> 0:19:43.520 tippy top of saves last year. If especially if they 0:19:43.520 --> 0:19:45.359 do make a Snell signing, you have pictures that are 0:19:45.400 --> 0:19:47.679 gonna get to that bullpen. The division's a little bit 0:19:47.720 --> 0:19:51.679 tougher to get save opportunities. But Deval has no questions whatsoever. 0:19:51.760 --> 0:19:55.840 But I'm not taking I wouldn't consider Deval even remotely 0:19:55.840 --> 0:19:59.320 close before Edwin Diaz or Josh Hater, but I would. 0:19:59.440 --> 0:20:01.480 I mean, now that we've lost Devin Williams, I could 0:20:01.520 --> 0:20:05.000 see easily see taking him over class, And looks like 0:20:05.040 --> 0:20:07.520 we are going to lose Johann Duran for a little 0:20:07.520 --> 0:20:09.720 bit as he's going to start the season on the IL. 0:20:09.800 --> 0:20:11.880 So this is another one of those situations. We lost 0:20:11.880 --> 0:20:15.160 all these starting pitchers. Now the top end closers people 0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:17.200 are gonna have a little bit of an advantage if 0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:19.600 you take them early, which isn't really happening. Daval is 0:20:19.600 --> 0:20:21.720 the only closer that's gone off the board, which is 0:20:21.840 --> 0:20:22.480 kind of crazy. 0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:26.480 Well, this is obviously our crew staying very disciplined, taking 0:20:26.560 --> 0:20:28.680 hitting early. These are our leading off people. These are 0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:31.680 our fantasy pros MLB people, that's for sure. As we 0:20:31.760 --> 0:20:35.399 continue on there after Deval, Alex Bregman, Welsh, Mookie Bett's 0:20:35.480 --> 0:20:38.120 legacy took him right out from under me, So that's 0:20:38.200 --> 0:20:41.280 very sad. Friend, Vierralta, one of my other favorites, goes 0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:43.480 to content Ie. Then Portland Pickles took Mike Trout, so 0:20:43.520 --> 0:20:45.240 I didn't have to make that decision. Although I would 0:20:45.240 --> 0:20:46.560 have had to think long and hard about it in 0:20:46.560 --> 0:20:48.760 the fifth round, like I would have to really look 0:20:48.760 --> 0:20:50.040 at the board and say, do I want to do 0:20:50.080 --> 0:20:51.680 this now? I ended up taking Nolan Jones. I almost 0:20:51.680 --> 0:20:53.960 look Bellinger and get going back and forth. I decided 0:20:53.960 --> 0:20:55.320 at the end of the day to take Nolan Jones, 0:20:55.320 --> 0:20:57.320 give me Colorado, give me the younger player, give me 0:20:57.359 --> 0:20:59.719 the player that I again, I know we disagree there 0:21:00.040 --> 0:21:02.560 on Nolan Jones. But what I love here about what 0:21:02.600 --> 0:21:04.960 I've done with Gunner Henderson and Nolan Jones is now 0:21:05.040 --> 0:21:07.160 the draft can come to me. I can slide Gunner 0:21:07.200 --> 0:21:09.720 Henderson from third to short, I can slide Nolan Jones 0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:12.440 from first to the outfield. I can let the best 0:21:12.480 --> 0:21:14.200 player on the board come to me. And I think 0:21:14.200 --> 0:21:17.000 that's something that's very underrated when you're drafting. If you're 0:21:17.040 --> 0:21:19.720 between two players and they're very close, that position flexibility 0:21:20.040 --> 0:21:23.720 allows you to maneuver the draft towards your favor. So 0:21:23.760 --> 0:21:25.200 it's something that I always like to do. And there's 0:21:25.200 --> 0:21:27.240 a few players you can do that with in these 0:21:27.280 --> 0:21:30.440 middle rounds. Here and the early going Max Fried goes next, 0:21:30.440 --> 0:21:34.240 then here we go closer time. Josh hater, Edwin Diaz, 0:21:34.280 --> 0:21:36.760 then Manny Machado, Christian Yelwich, the Welsh. You're up for 0:21:36.800 --> 0:21:38.120 two picks with twenty seconds left. 0:21:38.119 --> 0:21:41.119 All right, we are going to not be too focused 0:21:41.119 --> 0:21:42.800 on stolen bases. We are going to take what I 0:21:42.800 --> 0:21:45.800 think is a great steal here in Paul Goldschmidt. And 0:21:45.840 --> 0:21:50.880 then I ask you, fine, gentlemen, have you. 0:21:50.960 --> 0:21:53.760 Heard the word oh, oh, there we go. I love 0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:57.240 o'neel Cruz because we will take O'Neill Cruz to make 0:21:57.280 --> 0:21:59.680 sure that we have It's sorry poppy riding here, but 0:22:00.000 --> 0:22:02.400 if you heard the good word, Cruise is the other pick. 0:22:02.760 --> 0:22:07.440 I don't take solicitation during a draft, but whatever, I'll 0:22:07.440 --> 0:22:10.800 allow it this time. Goal shooting Cruise certainly two good 0:22:11.320 --> 0:22:13.399 spots there. Cru is going to help you with your 0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:15.960 stolen bases as well. Nate Miller is next on deck. 0:22:15.960 --> 0:22:18.840 And obviously, as you're watching today or you're probably listening, 0:22:18.880 --> 0:22:21.199 you have to remember we're using Draft Wizard to do 0:22:21.240 --> 0:22:23.040 the draft. And if you want to dominate your Fantasy 0:22:23.040 --> 0:22:25.639 Baseball drafts, you have to use Draft Wizard. It's the 0:22:25.640 --> 0:22:28.800 most comprehensive suite of tools. It's going to change the 0:22:28.880 --> 0:22:31.560 game for you. You can import rankings, you can use custom 0:22:31.640 --> 0:22:34.080 cheat sheets. You can use cheat sheets based on our 0:22:35.119 --> 0:22:38.240 rankings here on Fantasy Pros Welsh's mind a combination hybrid 0:22:38.280 --> 0:22:40.600 of yours along with us. It doesn't matter. Anybody's got 0:22:40.640 --> 0:22:42.720 the ranks up on Pros, you can select them for 0:22:42.760 --> 0:22:45.520 your cheat sheets. You can perfect your draft strategy too. 0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:48.360 You can use the draft simulator run a gazillion mock 0:22:48.480 --> 0:22:52.000 drafts in just a few minutes. It's amazing how fast 0:22:52.040 --> 0:22:54.200 you can go through these things. You can backpicks out, 0:22:54.560 --> 0:22:58.919 continue to craft your strategy. It's just incredible. If you 0:22:58.960 --> 0:23:02.679 haven't tried it, just sink your league, use it and 0:23:02.840 --> 0:23:05.119 continue to use a draft analyzer for all of your 0:23:05.160 --> 0:23:08.440 drafts so you can draft with the SYNC on as well, 0:23:08.440 --> 0:23:11.080 which is huge. That is something we love as well. 0:23:11.240 --> 0:23:12.840 So I have to pause because I'm in the middle 0:23:12.840 --> 0:23:15.680 of read here. I hope I didn't get auto picked. 0:23:15.760 --> 0:23:19.280 I did, which is sad and frustrating. Oh and something 0:23:19.320 --> 0:23:21.280 I would never do woild is take a closer on 0:23:21.320 --> 0:23:21.880 top of that. 0:23:22.000 --> 0:23:26.000 So I want to remind people too. Something I said 0:23:26.359 --> 0:23:28.240 in a video and we said in a previous show 0:23:28.720 --> 0:23:31.480 is if let's say we're not gonna shame you. But 0:23:31.520 --> 0:23:33.639 you've done no prep and you maybe only watch a 0:23:33.640 --> 0:23:36.760 couple videos and your draft is literally about to start. 0:23:36.920 --> 0:23:38.520 You have an hour in front of you. You could 0:23:38.560 --> 0:23:41.040 knock out four to five mock drafts and it's like 0:23:41.320 --> 0:23:43.680 us holding your hand during the draft with draft picks. 0:23:43.720 --> 0:23:46.360 So even without prep, the Draft Wizard is the way 0:23:46.359 --> 0:23:47.560 to go. So single well, we'll see if. 0:23:47.560 --> 0:23:49.160 Draft Wizard is right at the end of the day. 0:23:49.160 --> 0:23:50.639 And I understand there's a closer run. 0:23:50.760 --> 0:23:51.920 I had him on my shows. 0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:53.080 I'm not a closer guy. 0:23:53.720 --> 0:23:56.040 All hell Draft Wizard Well. 0:23:56.119 --> 0:23:58.919 Fantasybros dot Com slash draft Wizard. You can turn your 0:23:59.000 --> 0:24:01.760 draft day stress into draft day success and again, just 0:24:01.800 --> 0:24:03.920 download the app or go to fancerports dot com slash 0:24:04.000 --> 0:24:06.920 draft Wizard. I trust draft Wizard. Draft Wizard knows what's 0:24:06.960 --> 0:24:09.680 going on. We're gonna continue to resume the draft here. 0:24:09.680 --> 0:24:11.720 I wish I could back out the picks in these drafts, 0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:13.879 but I can't. I can only do that in the simulations. 0:24:14.240 --> 0:24:17.080 That would be nice if I was still picking, if 0:24:17.080 --> 0:24:20.000 I wasn't trying to be a good host and do 0:24:20.160 --> 0:24:23.159 reads for the company, I would be looking at Bobby 0:24:23.200 --> 0:24:25.879 Miller here that's probably where I would have gone to 0:24:25.920 --> 0:24:29.040 get my second starting pitcher. So a little frustrated. Everybody 0:24:29.040 --> 0:24:31.560 knows I'm very high on those guys. Grayson Rodriguez still 0:24:31.600 --> 0:24:34.240 on the board too, very frustrated, Welsh. I'm gonna try 0:24:34.240 --> 0:24:37.600 to bury my sorrows, but again, I'm gonna need closers. 0:24:37.680 --> 0:24:40.359 I'm gonna need saves to back things up here. Just 0:24:40.440 --> 0:24:42.800 would have waited a little bit longer, But again that's 0:24:42.800 --> 0:24:45.240 on me. I should have made sure that I set 0:24:45.280 --> 0:24:46.720 it to that setting. 0:24:46.760 --> 0:24:49.080 But don't beat yourself up, Joe, I want I want to. 0:24:49.080 --> 0:24:51.520 Beat myself up. Go via a couple picks. Looking to you, 0:24:51.600 --> 0:24:54.760 so far, you've got to catcher outfield, You've got a shortstop, 0:24:54.760 --> 0:24:56.680 third basement, and a closer. Where are you going first? 0:24:56.720 --> 0:24:58.320 You're gonna try to take your first starting pitcher here? 0:24:58.720 --> 0:24:58.960 Well? 0:24:59.080 --> 0:24:59.840 Is it that obvious? 0:25:00.320 --> 0:25:00.520 Yeah? 0:25:00.520 --> 0:25:03.680 It probably is. I wanted Scoogle, so then I complained 0:25:03.720 --> 0:25:06.880 and maybe I sabitized myself by taking Goval Dovall. Why 0:25:06.920 --> 0:25:08.880 why did I do that? I'm stupid, But I'm also 0:25:08.960 --> 0:25:12.000 a guy who learning to make mistakes and grow from them. 0:25:12.080 --> 0:25:16.040 So knowing that, I feel great about Logan Gilbert being 0:25:16.080 --> 0:25:17.960 on the board, I'm going to take Logan Gilbert over 0:25:18.000 --> 0:25:21.040 Grayson Rodriguez over Zach Eflin without a doubt over Blakes 0:25:21.080 --> 0:25:24.320 now for sure, because Logan Gilbert is about to take 0:25:24.359 --> 0:25:26.480 it to another level this year. I'm expecting a little 0:25:26.520 --> 0:25:28.880 bit better ratios to go along with the case, and 0:25:28.920 --> 0:25:32.399 he could arguably be a number one top twelve starring 0:25:32.440 --> 0:25:33.720 picture my end of season, no doubt. 0:25:33.920 --> 0:25:36.400 All Right, Govier, we've heard a lot of noise from 0:25:36.400 --> 0:25:42.119 Welsh about his dislike of Logan Gilbert's I just don't like. 0:25:42.200 --> 0:25:44.919 The halpit alone and I don't dislike Melan. 0:25:44.680 --> 0:25:47.960 Jones positive news. So give me some positive bent on 0:25:48.080 --> 0:25:51.239 why it's Logan Gilbert for you as I recap these 0:25:51.280 --> 0:25:54.320 picks in between after class A. Bobby Miller, of course, 0:25:54.359 --> 0:25:57.159 Pickles knew exactly stuck me right with the knife in 0:25:57.200 --> 0:25:59.960 the back, Brian Reynolds, Jordan Mont and you took Gilbert 0:26:00.119 --> 0:26:03.199 Cole Reagan's goes next to Durs. So go Vier, talk 0:26:03.240 --> 0:26:05.119 about Gilbert, and I know this next pick's coming up 0:26:05.160 --> 0:26:06.520 for you too, and talk about what you're gonna do 0:26:06.560 --> 0:26:07.280 with this next one. 0:26:07.920 --> 0:26:10.600 Yeah, Gilbert's the guys. I'm on the clock now. I 0:26:10.600 --> 0:26:13.040 don't have any shares of and I'm I'd rather if 0:26:13.080 --> 0:26:15.520 I had Schooble all day. But I'm settling for Gilbert away. 0:26:15.560 --> 0:26:18.320 But I don't feel it's a terrible, terrible drop off. 0:26:18.600 --> 0:26:21.400 I still like both the parks. They pitch in advantage 0:26:21.400 --> 0:26:23.840 to the al Central for being a worse league, easier 0:26:23.840 --> 0:26:26.679 for schoobl Aos a little bit tougher. And then on 0:26:26.680 --> 0:26:29.680 this pick, I love getting flexibility. But I'm gonna go 0:26:29.760 --> 0:26:31.880 my second picture. Who I like it. That's Joe Ryan. Yeah, 0:26:31.920 --> 0:26:35.760 I'm taking Joe Ryan, who I prefer over some of 0:26:35.760 --> 0:26:36.560 those other dudes. 0:26:36.720 --> 0:26:39.840 All right, Joe Ryan certainly another one of my favorites, 0:26:39.920 --> 0:26:41.520 So it seems like a good pick to me. So 0:26:41.640 --> 0:26:45.040 Gilbert and Ryan for you, you're building that rotation. I'm up 0:26:45.080 --> 0:26:46.240 into three picks here. 0:26:46.200 --> 0:26:47.879 And I have to wait so long. I was just 0:26:47.920 --> 0:26:50.320 sitting here. I'm like, why am I not kicking? But 0:26:50.400 --> 0:26:52.960 it's so long. This is what I don't like about 0:26:53.000 --> 0:26:54.800 on the wheel. The wheel, it's so great, I get 0:26:54.800 --> 0:26:56.919 to make my decisions. We got to the end of 0:26:56.920 --> 0:26:58.720 the round and I was like, ooh, I'm up. No, 0:26:58.800 --> 0:27:00.800 I'm not. I have to wait in higher another round. 0:27:00.840 --> 0:27:01.919 I'm so impatient. 0:27:02.040 --> 0:27:04.000 Are you new to how drafting works? 0:27:04.040 --> 0:27:07.120 Yes, I wanted Cole Reagans and he went and it's just. 0:27:07.040 --> 0:27:09.680 Oh well, but we talked about this last time. Well, 0:27:09.760 --> 0:27:11.520 she's probably a good time to bring it up again. 0:27:11.800 --> 0:27:13.840 Is I mentioned when I was at the wheel last 0:27:13.840 --> 0:27:17.640 time how the anticipation of what the run is going 0:27:17.680 --> 0:27:18.640 to be is crucial? 0:27:18.840 --> 0:27:19.159 Yeah? 0:27:19.280 --> 0:27:21.320 Uh, do you feel like you're not doing a good 0:27:21.400 --> 0:27:21.959 job of that? 0:27:22.320 --> 0:27:25.000 No? No, I love the picks. I think I'm getting 0:27:25.000 --> 0:27:27.760 good values. I'm putting together what I want. Goldschmidt was 0:27:27.800 --> 0:27:30.760 a deal O'Neil Cruz I have so much higher than 0:27:30.800 --> 0:27:33.120 I even took him. But I know his ADP's round six. 0:27:33.200 --> 0:27:35.960 I'm good with it. It's just difficult, like you're saying, 0:27:35.960 --> 0:27:38.880 the anticipation of watching all the You're like, could this 0:27:38.960 --> 0:27:41.080 work for me? Could this fall to me? No, it doesn't. 0:27:41.200 --> 0:27:45.240 Cole Reagan's goes, Labor Torres goes. Of course, you take 0:27:45.440 --> 0:27:48.679 Justin Steele never can have Seal. It will be a 0:27:48.760 --> 0:27:51.680 miracle if the is this the last draft? I can't 0:27:51.720 --> 0:27:54.320 have Justin Steel anywhere? It's really heartbreaking. 0:27:54.440 --> 0:27:56.600 Wait is this the last draft? They thought? That can't 0:27:56.600 --> 0:28:00.400 be true? Week John I don't know now I'm thinking 0:28:00.400 --> 0:28:02.159 about it might be the last one. Might have to 0:28:02.160 --> 0:28:05.040 look that up there, that's very set. I think it 0:28:05.160 --> 0:28:08.840 is the last one looks at. And in honor of 0:28:08.880 --> 0:28:10.919 you being the closer, you were the first guy to 0:28:10.960 --> 0:28:13.080 really take a closer. So you see that, Govier, see 0:28:13.080 --> 0:28:14.440 what you did, so bea It's. 0:28:14.400 --> 0:28:16.160 All coming together. It's a circle. 0:28:16.480 --> 0:28:20.439 Let delvec by the way, take Xander Bogart's right after me. 0:28:20.560 --> 0:28:22.479 The guy was debating back and forth, so I am 0:28:22.520 --> 0:28:26.160 getting screwed. I hate drafting in the middle, so I'm 0:28:26.240 --> 0:28:28.080 happy to be at the turn where Welsh is. 0:28:28.920 --> 0:28:30.480 You lost your voice there a little bit, and you're 0:28:30.520 --> 0:28:33.440 like I. 0:28:32.720 --> 0:28:34.359 So much I do. I hate it. I hate being 0:28:34.400 --> 0:28:37.200 in the middle because you are a subject to getting 0:28:37.240 --> 0:28:39.800 burned on the right side, getting burned on the left side. 0:28:39.840 --> 0:28:41.959 I don't like it at all. And the fact that 0:28:42.360 --> 0:28:44.160 I made a pick and then Bobby Miller went after, 0:28:44.240 --> 0:28:46.280 and then I made another pick and Xander Bogarts went after, 0:28:46.360 --> 0:28:48.760 I just hate it. So now I've become the Welsh. 0:28:48.880 --> 0:28:51.480 I hate my draft in the middle. Jesus Lizardo goes 0:28:51.560 --> 0:28:53.840 Joe Musgrove goes Blake snellghoes all the other pictures. I 0:28:53.960 --> 0:28:56.600 was contemplating, Nate Miller takes real Muto Welsh, you're up 0:28:56.600 --> 0:29:01.200 for two picks. Finally, oh god, finally the draft has 0:29:01.280 --> 0:29:03.480 come back to the Welsh. 0:29:03.560 --> 0:29:05.320 Well, I don't like any of these players, so that's 0:29:05.400 --> 0:29:08.760 the fortunate part of what's happened. So what I'm gonna do. 0:29:08.800 --> 0:29:11.240 Because I don't love the third base, I am going 0:29:11.280 --> 0:29:14.520 to lock up Nolan Aernado, so I've got the Cardinals 0:29:14.600 --> 0:29:18.160 corner endfield and then someone who should be pushing up 0:29:18.280 --> 0:29:20.600 a little bit more. Because I love the trade and 0:29:20.600 --> 0:29:22.440 I think this is kind of a deal, I'm going 0:29:22.480 --> 0:29:24.680 to jump in on the Dylan Ceas bandwagon. I love 0:29:24.720 --> 0:29:26.840 the ballpark factor with San Diego. I like the new 0:29:26.840 --> 0:29:30.440 offensive support. I'm gonna get big strikeouts. We just got 0:29:30.480 --> 0:29:32.720 to make sure he doesn't absolutely fall apart and he's 0:29:32.760 --> 0:29:34.160 not going to be the ace on this team. So 0:29:34.240 --> 0:29:37.160 Dylan Cees right around these this eighty marker. I moved 0:29:37.240 --> 0:29:38.960 him up a tiny bit higher in my ranks, which 0:29:39.040 --> 0:29:41.640 are live over on Fantasy Pros. You guys can use 0:29:41.680 --> 0:29:43.719 him the cheat cheater. Check hi out fantasycros dot com, 0:29:43.720 --> 0:29:46.560 slash MLB rankings. I got seased a little bit higher 0:29:46.600 --> 0:29:50.760 than this, but he has not adjusted from ADP on 0:29:50.800 --> 0:29:52.360 the trade. So I think this is a good spot 0:29:52.360 --> 0:29:53.160 for my sp three. 0:29:53.320 --> 0:29:55.720 Okay, so looking around the rest of the board here, 0:29:55.840 --> 0:29:58.400 as we keep coming back through, I'm up in a 0:29:58.400 --> 0:30:02.160 few picks. We have Dylan c then Rice Iglacias, Kyllege 0:30:02.160 --> 0:30:04.800 s Warber, Wilson, Controll's Christian Walker two picks to me, 0:30:05.120 --> 0:30:06.960 I'm on tilt a little bit. I gotta say, I'm 0:30:06.960 --> 0:30:08.600 not happy with the way things are going. I've gone 0:30:08.680 --> 0:30:11.200 complete Welsh here, just in the middle here, I think 0:30:11.200 --> 0:30:12.480 I know which way I want to go. I'm gonna 0:30:12.520 --> 0:30:13.520 take some steady guys here. 0:30:13.560 --> 0:30:15.120 You're gonna love it soon. Then if you're if you're 0:30:15.160 --> 0:30:16.760 on my trajectory, you're gonna hate it now and you're 0:30:16.760 --> 0:30:17.920 gonna love it by round like thirteen. 0:30:17.920 --> 0:30:20.800 I'm gonna hate it now, but yeah, you're like that, 0:30:20.960 --> 0:30:22.720 like the worst salesman ever. You're gonna love it. And 0:30:22.760 --> 0:30:25.000 it's just like two or three years. I'm still here. 0:30:25.000 --> 0:30:27.520 I'm saying, push through this. I'm I'm your therapist. Push 0:30:27.600 --> 0:30:29.520 through this. We're gonna get there. You're gonna love it 0:30:29.560 --> 0:30:31.200 here soon. I don't know if the the great at 0:30:31.200 --> 0:30:33.040 the end is going to but you know what, soung 0:30:33.080 --> 0:30:35.800 As you're happy Joe with you, that's all that matters. 0:30:36.040 --> 0:30:37.360 And that's that's true. 0:30:37.440 --> 0:30:39.560 If you're in fantasy baseball when it is important, if 0:30:39.600 --> 0:30:39.840 we like. 0:30:39.840 --> 0:30:41.920 It or I'm gonna lean in Welsh, I'm gonna lean 0:30:41.960 --> 0:30:44.560 into it. I'm gonna take Munyos take another closer here 0:30:44.600 --> 0:30:47.600 because they're flying fast and Furio that's unfortunate. I'm gonna 0:30:47.680 --> 0:30:51.000 lean in to what's going on, especially with more closer. 0:30:51.080 --> 0:30:53.840 News is pictures continue to drop like flies here in 0:30:53.880 --> 0:30:56.320 spring training. It's just, uh, this is why you should 0:30:56.320 --> 0:30:58.920 always draft as late as you possibly can. My homely 0:30:59.080 --> 0:31:01.520 draft is tomorrow night. This is that last week of 0:31:01.520 --> 0:31:03.960 spring training where you know, you really kind of you know, 0:31:04.160 --> 0:31:06.240 people start to peter off a little bit, start to 0:31:06.240 --> 0:31:08.800 take a little bit of a break, but you know, 0:31:09.000 --> 0:31:11.920 we've got certainly a few days left. Hopefully it just 0:31:12.000 --> 0:31:15.560 gets to the draft healthy. That's what we're trying to 0:31:15.560 --> 0:31:17.720 do here. So go vier you're up in a couple picks, 0:31:17.760 --> 0:31:20.000 Let's try to get in the recap here. So after 0:31:20.040 --> 0:31:22.680 I took Muns another closer off the board, So this 0:31:22.720 --> 0:31:25.600 is a group we're drafted with today, Welsh, it seems 0:31:25.680 --> 0:31:30.080 very close or happy? Does this feel like a good 0:31:30.200 --> 0:31:30.760 off the board? 0:31:31.080 --> 0:31:33.600 This is where the wheel is going to hurt me. 0:31:33.680 --> 0:31:35.160 I can already feel it now. 0:31:35.200 --> 0:31:37.360 Well, you do not have a closer yet. So what 0:31:37.520 --> 0:31:41.120 is your plan now that you did not anticipate as 0:31:41.160 --> 0:31:42.440 you should have earlier. 0:31:42.640 --> 0:31:46.240 Well, it's I'm I'm going to be digging in the garbage. 0:31:46.240 --> 0:31:48.840 Apparently I'm going to be Oscar the Grouch. That's gonna 0:31:48.880 --> 0:31:51.280 end up happening because Evan Phillips was my plan and 0:31:51.320 --> 0:31:55.000 now that is gone, and I'm anticipating probably three or 0:31:55.000 --> 0:31:57.680 four more closers, so I'm going to have to probably 0:31:57.680 --> 0:32:00.160 do a lot more speculation. There's still a few, but 0:32:00.200 --> 0:32:03.320 Evan Phillips, that was kind of that next tier target, 0:32:03.880 --> 0:32:06.560 you know, put him in the Best Draft Markets video. 0:32:06.720 --> 0:32:09.080 So it's it keeps sniping me. I hate it. 0:32:09.320 --> 0:32:12.000 GOVI got sniped again and with a player that I 0:32:12.120 --> 0:32:14.440 was going to take to So Castillanos goes off. That's 0:32:14.480 --> 0:32:16.280 the one I almost took. I decided and said to 0:32:16.360 --> 0:32:19.520 lean into the relief pitchers again because I got another 0:32:19.520 --> 0:32:21.960 guy that I do like. So you pivoted them to Torkosen. 0:32:22.200 --> 0:32:23.920 A pretty good pivot there. I mean a guy who 0:32:24.000 --> 0:32:26.400 hit thirty bombs last year. Torkosen so far in the 0:32:26.400 --> 0:32:29.960 projections again, thirty eighty seven eighty two. That seems pretty 0:32:29.960 --> 0:32:32.600 good there a batting average hovering probably around two forty. 0:32:32.600 --> 0:32:34.080 How do you feel about that Torkosen selection? 0:32:34.200 --> 0:32:37.120 Well, Mookie best legacy team is killing me. He's killing me. 0:32:37.960 --> 0:32:40.680 I wanted Castianos for his batting average. Now I took 0:32:40.720 --> 0:32:42.760 a guy with more power. Where can I get batting average? 0:32:42.840 --> 0:32:44.320 Or should I take a picture here? As I'm back 0:32:44.360 --> 0:32:47.480 on the clock, and I gotta say, uh, I don't 0:32:47.640 --> 0:32:50.280 love all the pitching here this moment. I don't want 0:32:50.280 --> 0:32:52.120 to take another closer either. I feel like I get 0:32:52.160 --> 0:32:54.840 some more value there later. This is one of those times, gentlemen, 0:32:54.920 --> 0:32:57.640 where I just have to trust my gut and believe 0:32:57.680 --> 0:33:00.760 in the process, and I'm going to take ice on Kim. 0:33:00.840 --> 0:33:02.520 Multiple positional eligibility. 0:33:02.680 --> 0:33:03.240 I like that. 0:33:03.400 --> 0:33:05.240 I like variety and flexibility. 0:33:05.400 --> 0:33:07.520 There you go the varieties there, Kim is now there 0:33:07.560 --> 0:33:10.160 by the way, Sea Wald and Whitet Langford, go Wyatt Langford. 0:33:10.160 --> 0:33:11.680 In case you're keeping score at home, I just did 0:33:11.680 --> 0:33:14.360 a short about this. He is leading spring training in 0:33:14.440 --> 0:33:17.920 ops RBI slugging, He's tied for second in home runs, 0:33:18.080 --> 0:33:20.560 he is tied for third and batting average and hits Welsh. 0:33:20.600 --> 0:33:22.240 Wouldn it be awesome if they send him down to 0:33:22.440 --> 0:33:23.920 I think I give the best all of that and 0:33:23.960 --> 0:33:26.120 they're like, well, he's really got to work on the 0:33:26.160 --> 0:33:27.720 way the ball gets out of the glove when he 0:33:27.760 --> 0:33:28.960 throws it from the otherfield. 0:33:29.640 --> 0:33:31.400 What does he have to really work on. I mean, 0:33:31.440 --> 0:33:33.040 that's just that's ridiculous. 0:33:33.160 --> 0:33:35.719 I'm just saying it would be hilarious. 0:33:35.120 --> 0:33:37.800 Enough with the slander. That's what I'm enough with the slander. 0:33:37.880 --> 0:33:40.440 That's what I'm saying. It's it's crazy. Just put the 0:33:40.480 --> 0:33:42.720 guy there, let him play, and if they do send 0:33:42.800 --> 0:33:44.520 him down, I mean that would be just absurd. 0:33:44.560 --> 0:33:48.640 I mean, well it yeah, no, he I mean he anywhere? 0:33:48.680 --> 0:33:52.320 Oh now I got sniped here in this off the board. 0:33:52.680 --> 0:33:54.960 One interesting thing real quick with the Langford stuff is 0:33:55.480 --> 0:33:57.840 word came out Kobe Mayo with the orioles, is a 0:33:57.840 --> 0:34:00.880 guy that's absolutely been dominating. But it came out that 0:34:00.960 --> 0:34:02.480 you know, what was the likelihood of him making the 0:34:02.560 --> 0:34:04.800 roster and the team. I think it was the team 0:34:04.800 --> 0:34:08.560 officials said, not very likely if Holiday makes the roster. 0:34:08.760 --> 0:34:11.160 And that's so interesting of the multi rookie thing, because 0:34:11.160 --> 0:34:13.120 that was one of the arguments with the Rangers is 0:34:13.160 --> 0:34:15.799 they've already got Evan Carter, who's gonna fie for that, 0:34:15.840 --> 0:34:17.719 you know, rookie of the Year thing for the extra pick. 0:34:17.920 --> 0:34:20.360 Maybe they don't need Press Langford. It's just weird that 0:34:20.600 --> 0:34:22.520 teams are going from, yeah, we'll put one guy, but 0:34:22.600 --> 0:34:24.279 even if this other guy is the best player, we 0:34:24.320 --> 0:34:26.000 still might not put him on the team. And that's 0:34:26.040 --> 0:34:27.360 what's going on with the Orioles. 0:34:27.719 --> 0:34:30.480 It is. It's a mess. It's a total mess. Also 0:34:30.520 --> 0:34:32.680 a good question real quick in the chat for JJ russo, 0:34:32.760 --> 0:34:35.560 should I wait to do our draft after the Korea 0:34:35.600 --> 0:34:38.040 opening Day or do it now now? 0:34:38.239 --> 0:34:40.279 I say, wait, yeah, I don't. I don't think this. 0:34:40.400 --> 0:34:42.799 I think this series doesn't it doesn't matter enough. I mean, 0:34:42.800 --> 0:34:44.759 it does take two games away from the Dodgers and 0:34:44.760 --> 0:34:46.360 the Padres, So I guess you could look at that 0:34:46.400 --> 0:34:49.120 from a hole. But I Bogman and I were doing 0:34:49.120 --> 0:34:51.440 our home league like the night. I think we're doing 0:34:51.480 --> 0:34:54.680 it Wednesday night and Thursday is opening day, so we're waiting. 0:34:54.680 --> 0:34:55.120 I love it. 0:34:55.520 --> 0:34:57.439 Yeah, I look, the later you can wait, the better 0:34:57.480 --> 0:34:59.279 it is. I understand the little trick because you're talking 0:34:59.280 --> 0:35:02.680 about games actually hounting and starting, so that I can 0:35:02.719 --> 0:35:05.879 certainly understand. But so far, here again this has been 0:35:05.920 --> 0:35:08.080 a you know, this is what happens. Our listeners are 0:35:08.080 --> 0:35:10.560 so smart. They'll be doing such a good job watching 0:35:10.600 --> 0:35:12.160 all the shows, listen to all the shows, using all 0:35:12.200 --> 0:35:13.879 the tools and draft ways and stuff like that. They're 0:35:13.920 --> 0:35:15.320 given us a hard time today, which is good. I 0:35:15.320 --> 0:35:18.640 can't wait to see who wins this draft. After Kim goes, 0:35:18.760 --> 0:35:21.600 Marte gos Lane, Thomas goes. Both guys out of my 0:35:21.719 --> 0:35:24.759 que Michael King, of course, was in MI queue. I 0:35:24.840 --> 0:35:27.120 hate and I mentioned I hate drafting sex. I hate 0:35:27.160 --> 0:35:28.840 drafting in the middle. Well, you don't like the middle, 0:35:29.280 --> 0:35:31.080 you don't like No, I don't like to be the 0:35:31.080 --> 0:35:33.680 meat in the sandwich here Michael King goes. And then 0:35:33.719 --> 0:35:35.319 I took Saya Suzuki because I want to get an 0:35:35.320 --> 0:35:38.520 outfielder as outfielder's gat game. Pick a little rough there, Michael, 0:35:38.520 --> 0:35:40.439 Why do you like Suzuki this year? Let's talk about 0:35:40.440 --> 0:35:42.000 because I have zero share so far. This is the 0:35:42.000 --> 0:35:43.719 first time I think i've taken Suzuki. 0:35:44.080 --> 0:35:46.799 I love it because he took his game up a notch. 0:35:46.840 --> 0:35:49.040 He figured some stuff out last year, reduced the case 0:35:49.040 --> 0:35:50.600 a bit more, got on base little bit more, show 0:35:50.600 --> 0:35:52.479 a little bit more power, and now as he comes 0:35:52.480 --> 0:35:54.800 into his own here I kept in my home league. 0:35:54.800 --> 0:35:56.919 That's a fourteen team head to head cats. I love 0:35:56.960 --> 0:36:01.319 Saya Suzuki because his profile gives you a really safe floor, right. 0:36:01.680 --> 0:36:03.360 I agree, by the way, say Flora, and that's what 0:36:03.400 --> 0:36:05.600 I was looking for there, because the upside of Lane 0:36:05.600 --> 0:36:07.400 Thomas was gone, and Michael King, had he made it 0:36:07.400 --> 0:36:09.399 to me, I would have selected Michael King. Everybody knows 0:36:09.440 --> 0:36:12.439 that for sure, all right, So DELVEK goes and takes Young, 0:36:12.480 --> 0:36:14.719 then Tanner by b Garrett Cole goes at nine to nine, 0:36:15.320 --> 0:36:17.919 still too early for my taste, Wilson, Contreras, Josh Lowe, 0:36:17.960 --> 0:36:19.400 and then Wels. Your two picks are up. 0:36:20.120 --> 0:36:22.919 I just took Evan Carter and Pete Fairbanks. I will 0:36:22.920 --> 0:36:25.280 tell you I did not want to take the closer. 0:36:25.360 --> 0:36:28.799 I felt compelled because there's only one or two arms 0:36:28.800 --> 0:36:30.479 that I really like. I have such a long wait. 0:36:30.520 --> 0:36:33.480 Pete Fairbanks is in that Evan Phillips group. So I 0:36:33.520 --> 0:36:35.600 didn't want to say his name. Earlier, I only had 0:36:35.640 --> 0:36:38.719 one outfielder, and I took Evan Carter. I kind of 0:36:38.719 --> 0:36:41.239 wanted to take two, to be honest with you, but 0:36:41.400 --> 0:36:44.760 I got to sacrifice something, and I'm sacrificing the balance. Overall. 0:36:44.880 --> 0:36:47.960 I've got one closer, three starting pitchers, two outfielders. I 0:36:48.000 --> 0:36:50.440 got a decent amount of infield and I'm hoping a 0:36:50.480 --> 0:36:52.680 few things fall my way, but I'm gonna have to 0:36:52.680 --> 0:36:56.040 wait two hours a million picks between nine. 0:36:57.440 --> 0:37:00.760 Alright, So after you took Carter and Fairbanks, Yondi Diaz, 0:37:00.840 --> 0:37:03.719 David Bednar, Tommy Edmund Andres Amanez, Chris Bassett, and then 0:37:03.719 --> 0:37:06.600 I took Chris Sale. Eurie Perez was ranked higher. But again, 0:37:06.640 --> 0:37:09.320 I'm gonna roll the dice on the old man here 0:37:10.120 --> 0:37:12.319 at getting right in Atlanta and giving me one good 0:37:12.400 --> 0:37:14.960 year on that Atlanta Braves team. The strikeout rate was 0:37:15.000 --> 0:37:17.560 still strong there last year for Sale. A lot of 0:37:17.560 --> 0:37:20.520 weird injuries. To me, Sale can make or break this 0:37:21.080 --> 0:37:24.600 Braves team, because when your third starter isn't right, that's 0:37:24.640 --> 0:37:26.680 the difference. You know, you're expecting your one and two 0:37:26.680 --> 0:37:28.839 guys to always deliver. Put you in spots to win 0:37:29.200 --> 0:37:30.960 four and five is always gonna be questionable. It's the 0:37:31.000 --> 0:37:32.680 guy who's in that third spot in your rotation in 0:37:32.719 --> 0:37:35.759 Major League Baseball. And when you're looking at let's say, 0:37:35.760 --> 0:37:38.600 win totals for teams, to me, that's the deal breaker 0:37:38.640 --> 0:37:40.279 when I'm looking at overs and unders, is what does 0:37:40.280 --> 0:37:43.040 a third starter look like on that team? And Sale, 0:37:43.200 --> 0:37:45.520 if he is right, is a huge win for this 0:37:45.560 --> 0:37:47.360 Braves team. If he's another guy's gonna give you a 0:37:47.440 --> 0:37:49.800 hundred innings, it's gonna be a huge problem for the 0:37:49.840 --> 0:37:52.560 Atlanta Braves. So I took Sale here over Perez because 0:37:52.560 --> 0:37:54.560 again I'm worried that Perez can give me one hundred 0:37:54.600 --> 0:37:56.799 and twenty innings one hundred and thirty innings. So Sale 0:37:56.840 --> 0:37:58.319 to me, I'm gonna take my shot on the guy 0:37:58.360 --> 0:38:00.320 who pitches for the Braves. And so the guy pitches 0:38:00.320 --> 0:38:03.399 on the Marlins Portland pickos takes Jordan Walker again, another 0:38:03.400 --> 0:38:06.720 guy out of my queue, Spencer Steer, Merril Kelly, Josh 0:38:06.800 --> 0:38:09.279 Naylor also out of my cue. Love this pick go Via. 0:38:09.360 --> 0:38:10.520 I know you're on the clock, so we'll get to 0:38:10.520 --> 0:38:12.799 your second one and the second ti Oscar nandez Zach 0:38:12.840 --> 0:38:15.959 Geloff also out of my cue. My goodness, this group 0:38:16.040 --> 0:38:21.000 is fiery today. Durs is crushing. It is a problem. 0:38:21.000 --> 0:38:23.600 He needs to not only is there's a problem. Look 0:38:23.600 --> 0:38:30.440 at this rotation Framber or Nola Reagan's He's got Cassus Wyatt, Langford, Alonzo, Lindora, 0:38:30.560 --> 0:38:33.680 Kunya Durs. If you lose this draft is on you, bro. 0:38:33.719 --> 0:38:36.040 Like Oscar Gelloff is what I wanted to do. 0:38:36.200 --> 0:38:39.320 By the way, Geloff is another guy having a great spring. Welsh, 0:38:39.320 --> 0:38:40.200 what are you taking out of that? 0:38:40.600 --> 0:38:42.839 Yeah, I mean, I'm there's a lot of strikeouts, though 0:38:42.880 --> 0:38:44.560 I was. I was actually just looking at him the 0:38:44.600 --> 0:38:47.280 other day. The strikeouts are I think thirty six percent 0:38:47.360 --> 0:38:51.000 in spring, which you I mean the spring stats in general. 0:38:51.120 --> 0:38:53.320 Like I've been sitting around being like, hey, Jared Kelnick 0:38:53.400 --> 0:38:55.799 is great. He's the worst spring training player of all time. 0:38:55.920 --> 0:38:58.080 And everyone is like, oh, there we go, he's garbage. 0:38:58.120 --> 0:39:00.480 It's like, okay, well we're picking that apart. Then we 0:39:00.560 --> 0:39:03.040 also can't be super positive about the guys that are 0:39:03.040 --> 0:39:05.840 doing great coming back down like I would like. The 0:39:05.840 --> 0:39:07.759 only thing I would have liked from Geloff is to 0:39:07.760 --> 0:39:09.600 see the strikeout rate lower. I don't care about the 0:39:09.600 --> 0:39:11.200 batting average I don't care about the power, I don't 0:39:11.200 --> 0:39:12.480 care about the speed. I just want to see the 0:39:12.480 --> 0:39:14.960 strikeout rate lower. And it's like thirty six percent right now, 0:39:15.000 --> 0:39:17.200 so that's a little worrisome. But he's a twenty twenty guy, 0:39:17.400 --> 0:39:18.840 and I was about to take him. 0:39:19.200 --> 0:39:21.400 All right. I'm gonna go ahead and take the what 0:39:21.440 --> 0:39:23.520 I imagine is probably the top lift here guy right 0:39:23.560 --> 0:39:26.399 now and continue to pound the outfield because outfield is rough. 0:39:27.160 --> 0:39:29.799 And I'm gonna take George Springer again a steal. I 0:39:29.800 --> 0:39:32.400 got not one, not two, but three clap mojis from 0:39:32.480 --> 0:39:35.520 Draft Wizards, So Draft Wizard we're speaking terms again. Things 0:39:35.520 --> 0:39:38.680 are going very well for us. So after I want 0:39:38.680 --> 0:39:41.200 to talk about govi A's picks here two Josh Naylor, 0:39:41.280 --> 0:39:44.120 Clay Holmes. You took another closer here, so you've got 0:39:44.120 --> 0:39:46.200 two closers. You got Josh Nayler. Nayler to me, it's 0:39:46.200 --> 0:39:49.080 one of the great values on the board, had a 0:39:49.160 --> 0:39:51.400 terrific season last year. Again, needs to play more than 0:39:51.400 --> 0:39:53.440 one hundred and twenty games, but if he does, this 0:39:53.480 --> 0:39:55.160 could be a huge win for you. At ten to eleven. 0:39:55.280 --> 0:39:59.600 Michael, Oh wow, we are definitely sympetico right there. My friend. Also, 0:39:59.600 --> 0:40:01.160 two re just came by this. This is the last 0:40:01.160 --> 0:40:03.960 time I said anything. Uh, every time you hear Evan Carter, 0:40:04.040 --> 0:40:06.359 somebody wants to get Carter. It is that terrible movie 0:40:06.360 --> 0:40:08.359 with Sylvester Sloan Calleme. 0:40:08.560 --> 0:40:10.719 I bought that movie. I owned that. 0:40:11.040 --> 0:40:13.319 Isn't that like if? People if it was like all 0:40:13.360 --> 0:40:16.080 the leftover remnants of like Payback with Mel Gibson. 0:40:16.160 --> 0:40:18.080 I think it was like, yeah, it was like the 0:40:18.200 --> 0:40:20.640 it was in the Revenge film things and it was like, 0:40:20.680 --> 0:40:23.000 you know, Mobby, I owned that movie. 0:40:23.040 --> 0:40:25.040 It was a remake. Michael Kaine was in the original 0:40:25.080 --> 0:40:26.720 I think like in the seventies or something. 0:40:26.800 --> 0:40:29.280 So yeah, well, Mark Okain and I'll play a gangst 0:40:29.400 --> 0:40:31.960 in this movie. That's all. I'll play a gangst and 0:40:32.040 --> 0:40:34.360 I'll draft fantasy baseball teams. That's why I. 0:40:36.520 --> 0:40:39.160 Run plus. Also, I love Josh Naylor too, Just to 0:40:39.200 --> 0:40:41.200 be on the record real quick, He's gonna be a 0:40:41.239 --> 0:40:43.800 great batting average floor for you. I didn't get Cassi. 0:40:44.400 --> 0:40:46.759 I took Naylor. I'm actually happy with that. It works 0:40:46.760 --> 0:40:47.439 out quite well. 0:40:47.719 --> 0:40:49.920 Yeah, look, that's a hell of a pivot. I think 0:40:49.960 --> 0:40:52.160 things worked out pretty well there for you, and we're 0:40:52.200 --> 0:40:55.680 probably the only fantasy podcast at least today that's going 0:40:55.719 --> 0:40:59.080 to have a macho man invitation and Michael Caine invitation. 0:41:00.040 --> 0:41:02.799 Mean's fun to do. I think everybody has a Michael Kaine. Yeah, 0:41:03.200 --> 0:41:05.839 everyone has that. Everyone has that version of walkle Kay 0:41:06.160 --> 0:41:09.960 and have you ever seen the Trip Jeff Wiz. It's 0:41:09.960 --> 0:41:12.359 had to help you make your picks, make such as 0:41:12.400 --> 0:41:14.879 small picks like so I'm not stupid, So you get 0:41:14.920 --> 0:41:16.920 all your picks in there, one thing right there, and 0:41:17.000 --> 0:41:19.120 make your cheat sheets say you're prepared. Not what that 0:41:19.200 --> 0:41:23.000 idiot Joe pisip. All right, So Clay Holmes, then Dansby, Swanson, 0:41:23.280 --> 0:41:26.320 Christian and carnasci O and Strand Bailey ober I took Springer. 0:41:26.800 --> 0:41:26.880 Uh. 0:41:27.040 --> 0:41:31.080 Then you have Jackson Curio, Anthony Santander, Ian Hat Bryce 0:41:31.120 --> 0:41:33.720 and Scott Marcelo's doon at eleven eleven, then Riley Green 0:41:33.960 --> 0:41:37.319 to the Welsh and Tanner Scott So Welsh, do you 0:41:37.360 --> 0:41:39.880 feel like you should have just continued to wait a 0:41:39.880 --> 0:41:41.759 little bit more on closers or do you feel like 0:41:41.800 --> 0:41:44.319 you got your forced hand here? I feel like your 0:41:44.360 --> 0:41:46.359 hand was forced That's what I'm feeling right these lock 0:41:46.400 --> 0:41:47.239 couple bits. 0:41:47.080 --> 0:41:50.840 Not necessarily I am. We are delving into the not 0:41:51.000 --> 0:41:54.319 liking this draft portion that I'm the worst person of 0:41:54.360 --> 0:41:56.920 all time and I should rethink what I do. Like 0:41:56.960 --> 0:41:58.839 we're kind of in that realm because I just took 0:41:58.880 --> 0:42:02.000 Tanner Scott and Riley Green and I keep getting sniped. 0:42:02.040 --> 0:42:04.480 I wanted Bryson Stott so bad. So we're on the 0:42:04.520 --> 0:42:07.040 downturn of my negative and we'll come back up with 0:42:07.080 --> 0:42:09.359 some picks. But no, the closer thing I actually really 0:42:09.440 --> 0:42:11.759 don't feel is a problem. A little bit worried about 0:42:11.800 --> 0:42:15.440 starting pitching and stolen bases. I'm trying to make sure 0:42:15.480 --> 0:42:18.319 I can compete in stolen bases. Just I had a 0:42:18.480 --> 0:42:20.640 very like concrete way I wanted to think of this team. 0:42:20.719 --> 0:42:24.080 And then when you start deviating off of certain players 0:42:24.480 --> 0:42:26.239 or you know, like bad batting average, and it kind 0:42:26.280 --> 0:42:27.920 of throws you off. That's why, by the way, I 0:42:27.960 --> 0:42:30.120 passed up a stolen base option with a bad batting 0:42:30.120 --> 0:42:31.920 average for one of my favorite breakouts this year in 0:42:32.000 --> 0:42:34.600 Riley Green. You know, hard hit numbers were through the roof. 0:42:35.040 --> 0:42:37.960 XBA works in his favor. Expected batting average. I think 0:42:37.960 --> 0:42:40.200 he's an eight twenty plus homer is still ten going 0:42:40.239 --> 0:42:41.600 to be in the middle of the lineup. So I've 0:42:41.600 --> 0:42:44.359 got three incredibly great outfielders, but I'm feeling a little 0:42:44.360 --> 0:42:44.960 bit of the pressure. 0:42:45.320 --> 0:42:46.799 Well, I think you're going to be annoyed with the 0:42:46.800 --> 0:42:48.480 way this round is going when you're talking about looking 0:42:48.480 --> 0:42:50.760 for more stolen bases, because after you took ten Or Scott, 0:42:51.040 --> 0:42:54.000 Charlie Morton goes, Uri Perezo, Sonny Grey goes, then you 0:42:54.200 --> 0:42:58.160 Stirry Ruiz twelve oh five, Vinnie pas Quentino my people 0:42:58.200 --> 0:43:01.600 at twelve oh six, and I took Anthony. 0:43:00.719 --> 0:43:03.399 Who I was gonna take. When I took Riley Green, 0:43:03.440 --> 0:43:05.520 I was gonna take Riley Green and Volpy, and I 0:43:05.560 --> 0:43:08.080 decided to pass on Volpi to get the second closer. 0:43:08.160 --> 0:43:10.319 So maybe you're right. Maybe the the not having the 0:43:10.320 --> 0:43:12.759 elite closer made me take two middle guys and I 0:43:12.840 --> 0:43:13.919 just lost those stolen bases. 0:43:13.960 --> 0:43:16.920 I don't feel like that's you know, I know Michael's up, 0:43:16.920 --> 0:43:18.200 so I'm let to make his picks. But Welsh, I 0:43:18.239 --> 0:43:19.640 feel like that's the thing, is like, if you miss 0:43:19.719 --> 0:43:22.920 the run, just throw darts later, because I feel like 0:43:23.600 --> 0:43:25.160 you're trying to mess around with those middle guys. Not 0:43:25.200 --> 0:43:28.479 only is their job security sometimes tenuous, but on top 0:43:28.560 --> 0:43:31.719 of which you're also worried about missing out on, Like 0:43:31.760 --> 0:43:33.880 I said, the volpies of the world, Pas Guentino, right, 0:43:33.920 --> 0:43:36.399 some of these players, so Jackson Curio, some of these 0:43:36.440 --> 0:43:38.279 more exciting younger players that you might have had an 0:43:38.280 --> 0:43:40.480 opportunity to take. Do you feel like that's a better 0:43:40.520 --> 0:43:42.840 practice if like, if you if you miss the beginning closer, 0:43:42.920 --> 0:43:44.399 run just wait to the very end of it. 0:43:44.560 --> 0:43:46.879 Yeah, I mean that is the way to go. I'm 0:43:46.880 --> 0:43:49.760 a again like the closing market I think is getting 0:43:49.760 --> 0:43:52.279 a little bit funky. We are getting a few more 0:43:52.360 --> 0:43:55.839 answers though, and like the Rangers announcing like it looks 0:43:55.880 --> 0:43:58.240 like jose Leclerk is gonna be the guy. But those 0:43:58.360 --> 0:44:02.239 back end closers, it seems like there's gonna be more 0:44:02.600 --> 0:44:05.880 rotational fireman spots. Pat Murphy said it with the Brewers. 0:44:05.920 --> 0:44:09.600 Instead of naming Pamps the closer, they just said, well, 0:44:09.760 --> 0:44:12.520 you know, he foresees leverage situations, and you might see 0:44:12.520 --> 0:44:15.120 a lot more leverage situations at the back end. So 0:44:15.400 --> 0:44:18.040 I feel a lot less comfortable with them, all right, 0:44:18.120 --> 0:44:18.840 I have a good. 0:44:18.960 --> 0:44:21.239 Pamps a lot by the way, yea, Amps, I'm just 0:44:21.280 --> 0:44:22.640 doing that now. I've been doing it for the last 0:44:22.640 --> 0:44:23.760 two weeks, Pamps. 0:44:25.000 --> 0:44:27.080 I have a bad feeling my rotation is gonna look 0:44:27.200 --> 0:44:29.759 very old very soon. And I'm just like the board 0:44:29.840 --> 0:44:31.759 and what's out there. I'm like, this might be a 0:44:31.880 --> 0:44:35.400 rotation for twenty seventeen. It might be like we'll see, uh, 0:44:35.560 --> 0:44:37.880 let's continue on here. At the Pigs ATHROI took Volpi, 0:44:38.200 --> 0:44:42.200 then Luis Arise, Ryan Helsley, Cedric Mullens, Alec Boum Degovier 0:44:42.320 --> 0:44:44.839 than Durors at the turn at twelve twelve Azela and 0:44:44.880 --> 0:44:47.239 Shane Bieber another guy that I was thinking about taking 0:44:47.280 --> 0:44:48.960 here when he came back. And then Jorge Solaire. So 0:44:49.040 --> 0:44:51.640 you got a corner guy here. You got an outfielder 0:44:51.640 --> 0:44:53.840 in so Lair, and he concerns about Solair moving to 0:44:53.880 --> 0:44:55.160 this ballpark in San fran. 0:44:55.600 --> 0:44:58.480 This is just absurd. I mean, the guy at cranks 0:44:58.800 --> 0:45:03.040 dongs in Kansas City, not exactly a home run paradise, 0:45:03.080 --> 0:45:05.000 and then he does it in Miami again, not a 0:45:05.000 --> 0:45:08.080 place where it's a home run free for all. So 0:45:08.280 --> 0:45:11.040 this guy can hit his power plays everywhere. So any 0:45:11.160 --> 0:45:14.000 talk this season about that narrative. But oh boys, good 0:45:14.000 --> 0:45:15.440 to San Francisco and end up be able to hit 0:45:15.480 --> 0:45:17.799 thirty home runs. The only thing that's gonna prevent him 0:45:17.840 --> 0:45:22.000 from hitting thirty home runs is injuries. That's his biggest bugaboo. Otherwise, 0:45:22.320 --> 0:45:25.720 I'm very confident of so Laire is a good floor 0:45:25.920 --> 0:45:26.480 for power. 0:45:26.880 --> 0:45:30.200 All right, Welsh will continue to look through here. Pickles 0:45:30.200 --> 0:45:32.520 is up, and then I'm gonna be next on the board. Yeah, 0:45:33.160 --> 0:45:35.359 some tough decisions are gonna have to be made here 0:45:35.440 --> 0:45:37.160 on this starting pitcher board. I can tell you right 0:45:37.200 --> 0:45:39.920 now because we are in that spot here where you 0:45:40.000 --> 0:45:42.439 gotta grab the right guy at the right time. Could 0:45:42.480 --> 0:45:45.240 be Verlander, could be Hunter, Brown, could be you, Darvish, 0:45:45.320 --> 0:45:50.160 all of which are around there for me. Potentially Darvis 0:45:50.200 --> 0:45:53.680 just made his Cactus debut. Slave to do that. So's 0:45:53.880 --> 0:45:56.040 that's pretty good. We're moving in the right direction there. 0:45:56.040 --> 0:45:58.120 It seems like I'm gonna go ahead and take a 0:45:58.120 --> 0:45:59.960 shot on Verlander. I er took a shot on Sale. 0:46:00.080 --> 0:46:01.720 I'm in for a penny, I'm in for a pound. 0:46:01.840 --> 0:46:04.080 Might as well just keep going down this road and 0:46:04.400 --> 0:46:06.520 either my hole, this team's gonna be first or last. 0:46:06.520 --> 0:46:08.080 I can tell you right now. But the way things 0:46:08.080 --> 0:46:08.680 are so. 0:46:08.719 --> 0:46:10.480 Ricky, Bobby too, I was gonna go Verlander. 0:46:10.560 --> 0:46:13.120 So you know what, Verlander is a fourth starter. I 0:46:13.160 --> 0:46:14.919 can live with that, Welsh. Do you think that's where 0:46:14.920 --> 0:46:16.000 you want to live with him this year? 0:46:16.480 --> 0:46:20.080 I wanted him as my friend. I wanted to Tay Yeah. No, absolutely. 0:46:20.080 --> 0:46:21.840 I think it mitigates the risk a little bit, and 0:46:21.880 --> 0:46:23.799 I think there's a lot more upside. When Verlander's your 0:46:23.880 --> 0:46:26.399 SP three you're kind of a little bit dicey. That's 0:46:26.400 --> 0:46:28.719 why I think like when you get into SP four territory, 0:46:28.840 --> 0:46:31.600 you can take more risk. Like Hunter Green, I think 0:46:31.719 --> 0:46:34.359 just literally just went like you can stomach those type 0:46:34.400 --> 0:46:36.600 of players where they could you know, maybe if they 0:46:36.640 --> 0:46:39.239 blow up a little bit. But it dress P four 0:46:39.440 --> 0:46:41.279 like if you've got three guys in front to carry 0:46:41.280 --> 0:46:43.600 your rotation, I'm willing to take those shots. And that's 0:46:43.640 --> 0:46:45.840 what I was going to do. And now I'm up, 0:46:45.920 --> 0:46:46.399 so you can. 0:46:46.320 --> 0:46:49.280 Talk, all right, I will talk now. So Jorge Soilira 0:46:49.360 --> 0:46:51.439 goes to go Vie and then Burrios at thirteen oh three, 0:46:51.880 --> 0:46:55.000 Estrada kimberl I took Verlander, ken Lee Jansen at thirteen 0:46:55.000 --> 0:46:59.160 oh seven Diaz another catcher off the board here, Yoshida 0:46:59.280 --> 0:47:02.120 Hunter Green, Sames Outman, Welsh is up for two picks there, 0:47:02.360 --> 0:47:04.160 so let's see what he's going to do. My guess 0:47:04.239 --> 0:47:06.319 is there's gonna be one starting picture at least in 0:47:06.400 --> 0:47:08.840 this is That's what I'm thinking, go Via, you agree, 0:47:08.840 --> 0:47:10.719 I think that's where he's going here another starting. 0:47:10.760 --> 0:47:13.279 Oh yeah, everybody knows Wells loves a good starter. I 0:47:13.280 --> 0:47:14.839 mean he does, That's what he's known for. 0:47:17.680 --> 0:47:19.960 I'm just happy that the phrase cranking dongs made the 0:47:19.960 --> 0:47:23.200 show today. Well that's why you have them one. So 0:47:23.400 --> 0:47:27.000 chat McCormick and you Darvish, who I was contemplating. So, 0:47:27.040 --> 0:47:29.040 would you have taken Verlander over Darvish? 0:47:29.040 --> 0:47:30.840 Wells, that's my question? Yeah, I would have taken ver 0:47:30.920 --> 0:47:34.720 Verlander was my pick, I think. I mean, like Darvish 0:47:34.719 --> 0:47:37.480 has been a little bit more explosive, like blowing up. 0:47:37.800 --> 0:47:40.520 Verlander's stuff, for the most part, is still there. It's 0:47:40.520 --> 0:47:43.200 been injuries that are holding him back. Darvish wasn't. Darvish 0:47:43.400 --> 0:47:46.319 had a complete fall apart and injuries that are tied 0:47:46.360 --> 0:47:49.319 to it. So I think Verlander is just a much 0:47:49.560 --> 0:47:51.960 safer bet and maybe even a safer bet for wins. 0:47:52.360 --> 0:47:54.600 And I just don't feel like his stuff is as 0:47:55.040 --> 0:47:57.160 is as scary, right, now Darvish is a little bit 0:47:57.160 --> 0:47:58.760 of a risk. You're probably not going to do anything 0:47:58.760 --> 0:48:01.360 for the projections or anything like that. But again, what 0:48:01.520 --> 0:48:03.919 I just say, like SP four, I can take some risks. 0:48:04.160 --> 0:48:07.600 If Darvish does find himself again, then this is gonna 0:48:07.600 --> 0:48:09.719 be an absolute steal, and it does. Ario Cohen is 0:48:09.760 --> 0:48:12.080 a value zone, yeah, and Ario Cohen said he you know, 0:48:12.160 --> 0:48:14.240 he might be one of the big massive values according 0:48:14.239 --> 0:48:16.160 to ATC as well in later drafts. 0:48:16.200 --> 0:48:19.480 So I'm fine zone value zone, baby you. Darvas has 0:48:19.600 --> 0:48:20.919 entered the value zone. 0:48:21.000 --> 0:48:23.080 And I took Chas McCormick for stolen bases because I'm 0:48:23.160 --> 0:48:25.200 lagging and that is my fourth outfielder though, so I've 0:48:25.200 --> 0:48:26.880 already filled that spot out, but I was lagging in 0:48:26.920 --> 0:48:30.400 stolen bases, so hoping that helps me a tiny bit. 0:48:30.760 --> 0:48:34.280 All right. Alvarado goes after than Sean Murphy, Jake Berger, 0:48:34.360 --> 0:48:36.279 another guy was gonna take it fourteen oh four, but 0:48:36.320 --> 0:48:39.839 I couldn't. Nolan Gorman, Brian Who and then I am 0:48:39.960 --> 0:48:42.319 up next. Got a lot of different ways I can 0:48:42.360 --> 0:48:44.759 go here. I'm not taking Max Months even I love you, 0:48:44.840 --> 0:48:45.839 Draft Wizard. 0:48:47.800 --> 0:48:49.960 That's my that's my rank talking to you. Joe. 0:48:50.160 --> 0:48:52.000 It is, but I'm instead gonna pivot. I'm gonna take 0:48:52.000 --> 0:48:55.120 Rehyese Hoskins here instead. I think that's a better overall pick. 0:48:55.320 --> 0:48:56.920 And what I can do now again, this is the 0:48:56.920 --> 0:48:59.319 flexibility that I had earlier I talked about. You know, 0:48:59.360 --> 0:49:01.600 he can go to I can play Nolan Jones at first, 0:49:01.640 --> 0:49:03.400 I can move Jones to the outfield. I can just 0:49:03.440 --> 0:49:05.680 continue to see what makes it back to me. So 0:49:05.840 --> 0:49:07.880 this is where those early picks can pay off for 0:49:07.880 --> 0:49:10.080 you as the board gets a little thin here as 0:49:10.080 --> 0:49:12.440 we continue on. We were in the fourteenth round, so 0:49:12.520 --> 0:49:15.239 that pick was fourteen oh seven. Gobia, what are you 0:49:15.280 --> 0:49:17.880 looking to do here? You've still got am I seeing 0:49:17.880 --> 0:49:21.279 this correctly? Just two starting pitchers here, That. 0:49:21.400 --> 0:49:24.160 Is correct, Joe. You are perceptive and that's why you 0:49:24.200 --> 0:49:26.440 are in the position of power that you are in. 0:49:26.719 --> 0:49:29.200 Nice work, Nice work. I'll say this, I'm not gonna 0:49:29.200 --> 0:49:30.719 tell you what to do because Mookie Betts is on 0:49:30.719 --> 0:49:32.839 the clock and then he'll snipe me. So I'm gonna 0:49:32.880 --> 0:49:34.600 keep it hush hush, but you're about to see exactly 0:49:34.600 --> 0:49:37.520 what I'm gonna do. Also, Reese Hoskins is kind of 0:49:37.520 --> 0:49:41.080 just being ignored, like, oh, remember that guy miss a 0:49:41.080 --> 0:49:43.000 thirty home run bat here, so that's a good play, 0:49:43.040 --> 0:49:45.640 even if this is rodo with average. I know Hoskins 0:49:45.680 --> 0:49:48.600 is an OBP preferably, but the power plays everywhere. 0:49:48.880 --> 0:49:49.040 Cool. 0:49:49.080 --> 0:49:52.080 Give me Hits two forty five, two fifty like, that's great, 0:49:52.120 --> 0:49:54.240 I'll take that. I'll take that. With twenty eight homers 0:49:54.280 --> 0:49:57.200 and then eighty eighty, I think that's well within eyegrass, 0:49:57.239 --> 0:49:57.839 especially if he. 0:49:57.800 --> 0:50:00.279 Was at the top of my queue too, at the 0:50:00.320 --> 0:50:01.880 top of my Q for a corner and field spot. 0:50:01.920 --> 0:50:04.359 I think he's in for a big bounce back thirty Again, 0:50:04.840 --> 0:50:08.040 getting thirty home runs post one fifty should be something 0:50:08.080 --> 0:50:10.400 you pay attention to those players that have legit, legit 0:50:10.440 --> 0:50:12.640 shots at thirty homers, he is at the tippy top 0:50:12.680 --> 0:50:14.479 of the list of a thirty home run bat post 0:50:14.520 --> 0:50:15.879 one fifties, so I think it's a great pick. 0:50:16.480 --> 0:50:19.640 Sal Perez, Mitch kell Er, Brandon Nimo, then Govier takes 0:50:19.640 --> 0:50:23.160 a starter color, Carlos Rodin, Jared Durant at fourteen twelve, 0:50:23.400 --> 0:50:26.640 then Ezekiel Tovar. Durs is definitely using the Joey P. 0:50:26.760 --> 0:50:31.160 Welsh chie cheat. I feel Brutal Durs is crushing it 0:50:31.239 --> 0:50:33.360 right now. And then Hunter Brown another pitcher that was 0:50:33.400 --> 0:50:36.239 on my list. So Rodan and Brown dot the firm 0:50:36.360 --> 0:50:38.360 fourth starters. There you go, Now you got four just 0:50:38.400 --> 0:50:41.239 like that. The wormers turn Govier. Give me your low 0:50:41.280 --> 0:50:43.479 down on these two guys, Rodan and Hunter Brown. 0:50:43.920 --> 0:50:47.120 Hunter Brown's ratios are gonna come down. He's got the keys, 0:50:47.160 --> 0:50:49.920 he can miss bats. Also, he's a local boy Michigan, 0:50:49.960 --> 0:50:53.520 which is cool. And Carlos Rodon is a It's a 0:50:53.640 --> 0:50:55.920 risk because he could get hurt tomorrow, but he could 0:50:55.960 --> 0:50:59.279 also strike out two hundred and fifty hitters this year. 0:50:59.400 --> 0:51:01.799 So I feel really good about getting these guys in 0:51:01.840 --> 0:51:03.839 the one sixties. I'm cool with that. 0:51:04.200 --> 0:51:06.520 Yeah, it certainly works, makes a lot of sense. There. 0:51:06.880 --> 0:51:08.239 There is one guy I think I'm going to go 0:51:08.239 --> 0:51:09.560 out and I'm going to reach for and I think 0:51:09.600 --> 0:51:13.200 his projections are just way too low around Who is. 0:51:13.440 --> 0:51:13.799 Who it is? 0:51:13.800 --> 0:51:14.480 What do you think it is? 0:51:14.640 --> 0:51:19.640 Edward Julian It's not yet, but I love Portland. 0:51:19.640 --> 0:51:21.920 Pickles is off, but I don't know why I can't 0:51:22.440 --> 0:51:25.000 make my pick here. Oh no, there we go, now, 0:51:25.000 --> 0:51:26.880 I'm up now there it is. Sorry, it was a 0:51:26.920 --> 0:51:29.640 little glitch there in the matrix there. Jackson Holiday went, 0:51:29.960 --> 0:51:32.560 and then I took Holiday was there? I probably would 0:51:32.600 --> 0:51:35.200 have made that selection there. Uh so did I take? 0:51:35.680 --> 0:51:35.799 No? 0:51:36.360 --> 0:51:39.200 They took it out from under the three hold. 0:51:38.960 --> 0:51:40.480 On, Well, I just take. 0:51:41.880 --> 0:51:44.799 I tried to take, but unfortunately I think I was 0:51:44.840 --> 0:51:46.080 just a little too early there. 0:51:46.200 --> 0:51:47.160 Well, no, he went down. 0:51:48.960 --> 0:51:51.200 Again, right, but it was a little bit of a pause. 0:51:51.200 --> 0:51:53.240 There a little glitch here on my internet for a second. 0:51:53.280 --> 0:51:56.120 So now I've got a regroup. This is this is 0:51:56.160 --> 0:51:58.640 really you guys are getting too good at this. 0:51:58.800 --> 0:52:01.000 I just want to say, we need when you get sniped, 0:52:01.040 --> 0:52:02.960 we need the Randy Orton. You know where you're like, Oh, 0:52:03.040 --> 0:52:04.120 and then Randy Orton comes in. 0:52:04.880 --> 0:52:08.520 Nowhere you just got I pretty much did. I pretty 0:52:08.600 --> 0:52:10.839 much did here, And now I've got to regroup yet 0:52:10.880 --> 0:52:14.320 again here looking at my options. Obviously I've got Paridis, 0:52:14.360 --> 0:52:17.600 I've got Julian. I think I can wait a little longer. 0:52:17.640 --> 0:52:20.360 Maybe I'm wrong. We'll see. Uh. He keeps wanting me 0:52:20.400 --> 0:52:22.560 to take Max Munsey. It's gonna crush my average. I 0:52:22.560 --> 0:52:24.000 don't know if that's the route I want to go. 0:52:24.080 --> 0:52:26.160 I probably need more starting pictures here, so I think 0:52:26.200 --> 0:52:28.640 that's probably where I'm gonna end up going. Walker Buller 0:52:28.680 --> 0:52:32.200 is interesting, but again, the just don't like taking guys 0:52:32.200 --> 0:52:34.359 that are already had hurt to start the year. I'm 0:52:34.360 --> 0:52:37.319 gonna said, take a guy with the Arizona Diamondbacks with 0:52:37.680 --> 0:52:40.359 Eduardo Rodriguez, so it could tell me it's a slight reach. 0:52:40.680 --> 0:52:42.239 I still love the picture. I love what he was 0:52:42.239 --> 0:52:45.080 doing last year. He's got strikeout potential, good team. He 0:52:45.200 --> 0:52:46.920 was brilliant in the first half last year. I know 0:52:47.000 --> 0:52:48.920 injuries kind of derailed the second a little bit, but 0:52:49.520 --> 0:52:51.960 all in all, Imanaga that was the guy I wanted. 0:52:52.080 --> 0:52:55.000 Jackson Holliday. The other guy I wanted once again, Snipey Snipey, 0:52:55.080 --> 0:52:59.320 Alex Lang Holiday Imanaga, then Eduardo Rodriguez, a lawyer Menez. 0:52:59.360 --> 0:53:02.120 There you go, gob a fifteen o seven pick of 0:53:02.120 --> 0:53:06.799 the glass. DJ Local selects Stephen Kwan Mannick is up, 0:53:06.800 --> 0:53:09.080 then mister buster thn Nate Miller Welsh. What are you 0:53:09.080 --> 0:53:11.319 hoping to do here with the way your roster is 0:53:11.320 --> 0:53:11.879 shaping up? 0:53:12.360 --> 0:53:17.120 Well, I'm looking at some power. I'm looking at still 0:53:17.880 --> 0:53:20.600 starting pitchers. I feel like I got stolen bases, but 0:53:20.600 --> 0:53:23.080 I'll tell you the system does not agree. I'm kind 0:53:23.080 --> 0:53:25.160 of near the bottom, but I think one more guy 0:53:25.239 --> 0:53:27.279 is going to cure that, but I kind of want 0:53:27.320 --> 0:53:31.560 to continue my big power run. And Max Munsey was 0:53:31.680 --> 0:53:33.719 one of them, and so is Edward Julian. God, you 0:53:33.760 --> 0:53:37.240 guys are the worst. You guys worst people. 0:53:37.280 --> 0:53:39.800 Oh your boy brainon fots still floating around there too. 0:53:39.840 --> 0:53:41.400 He is still floating around. I am going to take 0:53:41.440 --> 0:53:43.480 a middle infielder though I'm gonna get big power. This 0:53:43.520 --> 0:53:45.000 is gonna hurt my batting average a little bit, but 0:53:45.000 --> 0:53:50.080 I'm gonna go Willia Damas or Joe Williadams, and I 0:53:50.120 --> 0:53:51.920 don't know what I'm gonna do with the other one 0:53:51.920 --> 0:53:55.680 because all these players are stinky and I hate every 0:53:55.680 --> 0:54:01.279 single one of them. But yeah, you can't develop fillerbuster. 0:54:00.840 --> 0:54:02.680 Ken, to my Aida is always another you know selection 0:54:02.719 --> 0:54:04.799 for you, well, you can always go that round, you 0:54:04.920 --> 0:54:06.759 darvish Ken tom Ata that it sounds like a Welsh 0:54:06.760 --> 0:54:10.680 pitching staff to be but you know, you do have one, two, 0:54:10.840 --> 0:54:14.239 three four starting pitchers here, you have two closers, so 0:54:14.280 --> 0:54:16.560 you have some time here. You've got a the ability 0:54:16.600 --> 0:54:18.880 to uh work out of this. So at the end 0:54:18.880 --> 0:54:21.200 of the day it was Brandon Fott, which again that's 0:54:21.200 --> 0:54:22.680 a no brainer. Welsh pick I feel like here. 0:54:22.719 --> 0:54:25.000 Yeah, it was gonna be Mounsey and Adamis and I 0:54:25.040 --> 0:54:26.960 was going to really tank some batting average here and 0:54:26.960 --> 0:54:30.040 try to make up for it. Monthsly went ahead, Edward Julian, 0:54:30.120 --> 0:54:32.200 I still need a second basement. I have not locked 0:54:32.239 --> 0:54:34.399 in a second basement, so I'm going really really late here. 0:54:34.440 --> 0:54:34.759 This is the. 0:54:34.760 --> 0:54:37.360 Position that I've punted. Brandon Fott's probably not gonna do 0:54:37.360 --> 0:54:39.759 me a ton of favors on projections, but SP five 0:54:40.040 --> 0:54:40.640 all day long. 0:54:40.800 --> 0:54:45.080 Absolutely, SP five all day long, baby, all day long. 0:54:46.080 --> 0:54:48.400 Interesting some name still on the board too, And this 0:54:48.440 --> 0:54:49.919 is one of those things when you're in the deeper leagues, 0:54:49.920 --> 0:54:51.640 when you go from the the ten person league to 0:54:51.680 --> 0:54:55.360 the twelve person league to even fifteen, things get really dicey. 0:54:55.400 --> 0:54:56.640 You have to make sure that you have a plan 0:54:56.719 --> 0:55:00.480 for these later rounds. Absolutely, so after you did your 0:55:00.520 --> 0:55:02.960 selections there, Welsh, you took five than Paveta. One of 0:55:02.960 --> 0:55:06.080 your other guys goes off the board. Fridol Hayes, Brian Bayo, 0:55:06.680 --> 0:55:09.120 sixteen oh six is up. I'm on the clock right 0:55:09.160 --> 0:55:11.839 now and looking at the rest of this board here, 0:55:11.920 --> 0:55:14.000 trying to figure out which way I want to go, 0:55:14.560 --> 0:55:17.399 and goodness, draft wizards here to help me figure these 0:55:17.440 --> 0:55:20.680 things out, because I certainly need some guidance right now 0:55:20.840 --> 0:55:22.719 there is no more closer on the board. Maybe I 0:55:22.760 --> 0:55:24.520 will go that route too and just kind of be 0:55:24.560 --> 0:55:27.440 a jerk. I think that's sounds like, just be a jerk, 0:55:28.200 --> 0:55:30.880 sounds like something I would do. But Ivaldi off the 0:55:30.880 --> 0:55:34.719 board as well. Walker Bueller Welsh, are you taking Walker 0:55:34.719 --> 0:55:37.000 Buller anywhere? Is that a pick that you are looking 0:55:37.040 --> 0:55:38.440 to make in it? Because he is another guy that's 0:55:38.440 --> 0:55:40.040 floated now here in the sixteenth round. 0:55:40.239 --> 0:55:42.160 I think we're in the territory where you can do it. 0:55:42.320 --> 0:55:44.160 The biggest worry is he's not going to start with 0:55:44.239 --> 0:55:46.960 the team, But I'd also say we're not dealing with 0:55:47.040 --> 0:55:49.960 like massive setbacks or anything like that. Here are the negatives. 0:55:50.000 --> 0:55:53.040 He's not starting, They've got a six man rotation, and 0:55:53.080 --> 0:55:55.120 no guy's going to get over one hundred and fifty innings. 0:55:55.360 --> 0:55:58.160 It doesn't actually mean, though that Walker Buler still can't 0:55:58.200 --> 0:55:59.799 get there if he doesn't start the year off. So 0:56:00.560 --> 0:56:03.399 not that I'm advocating for drafting him really high. We're 0:56:03.440 --> 0:56:05.719 in the Walker Bueller territory right now. 0:56:05.760 --> 0:56:07.800 Though. If you want to take Thing Welsh, that Garrett 0:56:07.800 --> 0:56:10.040 Cole went on in the ninth round, and Koda Sega 0:56:10.120 --> 0:56:11.160 is still here in the sixteenth. 0:56:11.480 --> 0:56:14.200 I mean, I'm not taking guy I made not really apparent, like, 0:56:14.239 --> 0:56:16.319 there's no chance I'm taking Garrett Cole in the top. 0:56:16.360 --> 0:56:18.000 I don't care if it's like, oh, he does cut, 0:56:18.080 --> 0:56:19.720 he's not. He's gonna be gone for like two months, 0:56:19.719 --> 0:56:21.200 and it might be longer, and if the team really 0:56:21.239 --> 0:56:23.080 wants to play it close to the chest, they might 0:56:23.080 --> 0:56:24.960 be like, let's do this post All Star break. So 0:56:25.320 --> 0:56:28.200 taking him in the top one fifty just makes no 0:56:28.239 --> 0:56:32.800 sense to me right now, Toto Imanaga, I'm taking hands 0:56:32.840 --> 0:56:36.879 down over Garrett Cole right now, and Cole it's further down, 0:56:37.840 --> 0:56:38.080 you know. 0:56:38.280 --> 0:56:40.080 When we're talking about that too, if you want to 0:56:40.080 --> 0:56:42.200 take a shot on a picture that maybe you're getting 0:56:42.200 --> 0:56:44.880 a value on because of an injury. Looking at this 0:56:44.920 --> 0:56:48.000 board right now again, Senga theoretically is supposed to at 0:56:48.040 --> 0:56:49.920 some point start to work his way back. Govie. That 0:56:49.920 --> 0:56:52.960 seems like a lot better path here around sixteen seventeen 0:56:52.960 --> 0:56:54.280 than Garrett Cole in the ninth round. 0:56:54.960 --> 0:56:57.239 Yeah, it's a no brainer to me. I don't even 0:56:57.239 --> 0:56:59.200 know why this is happening, right now it's very bizarre. 0:56:59.360 --> 0:57:02.319 In fact, uh, I think the code I Sanga has 0:57:02.320 --> 0:57:03.880 a much better chance of giving you at least one 0:57:03.960 --> 0:57:05.319 hundred innings this year than Cole does. 0:57:05.400 --> 0:57:07.680 I agree? All, I agree. I think there's a much 0:57:07.719 --> 0:57:10.239 better chance that even if it takes senga longer, that 0:57:10.320 --> 0:57:11.880 Sega gives you more innings. I know you're on the 0:57:11.880 --> 0:57:15.239 clock with ten seconds here to go, recap. There you go, 0:57:15.320 --> 0:57:17.120 you did it all right. So let's go through these 0:57:17.160 --> 0:57:19.560 picks here. So after Ivaldi, I took Christian Javier at 0:57:19.600 --> 0:57:23.680 sixteen oh seven, I mean, pretty deep in the starting pitcher, realm. 0:57:23.840 --> 0:57:25.800 I'll take that shot on the guy, you know, the 0:57:25.800 --> 0:57:28.320 flamethrowing guy here, Trevor Story at sixteen oh eight, Gabriel 0:57:28.360 --> 0:57:30.520 Moreno at sixteen oh nine, win of Welsh's favorite to 0:57:30.600 --> 0:57:33.600 consa nine, and then Mookie Bett selected Bryce Miller Morell 0:57:33.800 --> 0:57:37.400 to Hugovier and Aaron Savali another really nice pick there. 0:57:37.440 --> 0:57:40.280 I love that one. Cal Rawley at sixteen twelve, and 0:57:40.320 --> 0:57:43.360 then Peretis at seventeen oh one. Let's talk about Savali 0:57:43.440 --> 0:57:46.280 because that's a dude. Again. It feels like, you know 0:57:46.360 --> 0:57:48.120 they I say it all the time. The Rays get 0:57:48.120 --> 0:57:49.800 their claws in somebody next thing. You know, you get 0:57:49.800 --> 0:57:51.640 the best version of them. Do you think that you're 0:57:51.680 --> 0:57:53.400 gonna get the best version of Savali this year? 0:57:53.480 --> 0:57:55.960 Oh yeah, I mean that's why I made the pick here. 0:57:56.000 --> 0:57:58.400 This is a mock draft, but I'm locked in. I'm 0:57:58.400 --> 0:58:02.240 assuming there's a million pot at steak here, so I'm 0:58:02.280 --> 0:58:06.360 not screwing around. To me, Savale's ratios really gonna help 0:58:06.400 --> 0:58:07.840 out with the rest of my pitching staff. You know, 0:58:07.880 --> 0:58:11.400 I got guys like Carlos, Rodon, Logan Gilbert, so I'd 0:58:11.480 --> 0:58:15.080 love what Savale brings. But also in the latter part 0:58:15.160 --> 0:58:17.280 of the year after he was traded to the Race, 0:58:17.320 --> 0:58:21.320 Savale was making some bitners miss some pitches, and I 0:58:21.360 --> 0:58:23.080 think that the Race are going to tap into that 0:58:23.280 --> 0:58:25.520 more in twenty twenty four. I think Savale's a very 0:58:25.560 --> 0:58:26.680 underrated asset this year. 0:58:26.760 --> 0:58:28.480 All right, I am up on the clock. The guy 0:58:28.480 --> 0:58:31.360 that I wanted is still there, So Michael Garcia off 0:58:31.440 --> 0:58:33.240 of my team off. I think I should say the 0:58:33.320 --> 0:58:36.080 queue and onto my roster there, so he'll be my 0:58:36.200 --> 0:58:39.480 third baseman, slash shortstop whatever you'll call Gunner Henderson, my 0:58:39.520 --> 0:58:42.120 third basement. If it makes everybody happy out there. I 0:58:42.120 --> 0:58:44.720 think I got a life balance here of stolen bases 0:58:44.960 --> 0:58:47.520 of power. I've got some guys to help me with 0:58:47.520 --> 0:58:50.040 the batting average offset, maybe guys like Volpi. But I 0:58:50.120 --> 0:58:52.080 like the way this roster's coming together offensively. I like 0:58:52.080 --> 0:58:55.960 the depth of the pitching staff Glass now Steel, Sale, Verlander, 0:58:56.040 --> 0:58:58.640 Javier and Eduardo Rodriguez. So I feel pretty decent. 0:58:58.880 --> 0:59:02.960 I'll tell you you are projected the second most stolen bases. Actually, 0:59:02.960 --> 0:59:05.439 you just moved a third live, which you can check 0:59:05.480 --> 0:59:07.440 when you're on the draft board. On draft wazers, you 0:59:07.480 --> 0:59:10.240 can go through your stolen bases. You are in the 0:59:10.280 --> 0:59:11.400 top half. So good on you. 0:59:11.680 --> 0:59:15.280 I feel good about that, right, I feel you know, 0:59:15.320 --> 0:59:17.160 I feel pretty good. Let's see how draft ways are great. 0:59:17.200 --> 0:59:19.120 So I am doing a full Welsh here because I 0:59:19.200 --> 0:59:21.080 definitely am starting to pull out of the tailspin in 0:59:21.120 --> 0:59:23.520 these last couple of picks. But man, that middle was 0:59:23.640 --> 0:59:25.040 rough Welsh. I was starting to like it. 0:59:25.400 --> 0:59:28.240 That's what happens. That's the Welsh. The Welsh draft cycle 0:59:28.360 --> 0:59:31.120 is you never go full Welsh. Why does everybody let 0:59:31.160 --> 0:59:33.240 me do this? And then it's oh, I'm the worst person. 0:59:33.320 --> 0:59:34.920 I should give it all up and then come back 0:59:34.960 --> 0:59:35.760 and everything's okay. 0:59:35.880 --> 0:59:39.720 That's the modest man live. Candelario goes at seventeen oh three, 0:59:40.040 --> 0:59:42.800 Gavin Williams at seventeen oh four, then Francisco Alvarez me 0:59:42.920 --> 0:59:46.360 in the middle, seventeen oh six, Michael Garcia, and then 0:59:47.080 --> 0:59:51.800 we have Tristan McKenzie, Pepio Starling, Marte, Walker Buehler, Jorge Polanco, 0:59:52.040 --> 0:59:54.400 La Clerk that's the guy Welsh that was the last closer. 0:59:54.480 --> 0:59:58.080 I know when you said closers, I agree you knew. 0:59:58.120 --> 1:00:01.320 And then Matt Chapman next for you. So Chapman and Leclerk, 1:00:01.440 --> 1:00:04.040 let's talk about this in the selections you made, how 1:00:04.080 --> 1:00:05.280 do you feel about these two picks? 1:00:05.480 --> 1:00:08.320 Yeah, I mean I don't love what's left at corner Enfield. 1:00:08.360 --> 1:00:10.240 I got to feel one of those spots. I one 1:00:10.240 --> 1:00:13.440 thousand percent wanted Jamer Candelario and he went, so I 1:00:13.480 --> 1:00:15.560 had to pivot. I Like I said, I don't like 1:00:15.560 --> 1:00:18.480 the first Nate Lowe's out there. Third base was drying up, 1:00:18.880 --> 1:00:20.840 and Matt Chapman's one of those players, and I'm going 1:00:20.920 --> 1:00:22.760 to just hope for the bounce back. You know, Eno 1:00:22.840 --> 1:00:25.960 had talked about him just getting that average a little 1:00:26.000 --> 1:00:28.120 bit back up the hard hit numbers are there. It's 1:00:28.160 --> 1:00:31.440 a little bit of a more difficult hitting environment, I suppose, 1:00:31.480 --> 1:00:33.680 but he's going to be putting a really good opportunity 1:00:33.680 --> 1:00:36.000 for runs in RBIs, so I think that's pretty solid 1:00:36.040 --> 1:00:37.920 right around two hundred, and then I went for a 1:00:37.960 --> 1:00:40.880 third closer in there to get just a few more saves. 1:00:40.920 --> 1:00:42.680 It was really projecting me low, by the way, with 1:00:42.760 --> 1:00:45.280 Fairbanks and with Tanner Scott. So this is a tiny 1:00:45.320 --> 1:00:49.280 bit more protection for some saves. So I am investing 1:00:49.320 --> 1:00:51.400 a little bit higher in there. These are not sexy picks. 1:00:51.440 --> 1:00:54.720 These are the most unsexy picks of Matt Chapman. And uh, 1:00:54.800 --> 1:00:56.000 it was like a clerk. But this is what you 1:00:56.000 --> 1:00:57.640 got to do sometimes at the end of your draft, 1:00:58.200 --> 1:00:58.800 all right. 1:00:58.720 --> 1:01:00.520 So at the end of the draft here actually again 1:01:00.520 --> 1:01:02.160 I'm feeling pretty good about the board. Now now all of 1:01:02.160 --> 1:01:05.760 a sudden, things have definitely right the ship Byron Buckson, 1:01:05.760 --> 1:01:07.400 by the way, who already got hurt today, By the way, 1:01:07.440 --> 1:01:10.080 in case you were keeping at home, eighteen oh two 1:01:10.600 --> 1:01:12.760 code I sing got eighteen oh three Hoveer buys at 1:01:12.760 --> 1:01:15.040 eighteen oh four Brandon Drury. So this is how you know, 1:01:15.200 --> 1:01:19.120 this is our people dj Local taking Brandon Drury here 1:01:19.200 --> 1:01:22.360 eighteen oh five than Nathaniel Lowe. I took Dalton varshow 1:01:22.400 --> 1:01:24.760 at eighteen oh seven. Need another outfielder there, So I 1:01:24.800 --> 1:01:27.920 got my fourth outfielder on this team. I still need 1:01:27.920 --> 1:01:31.280 the util spot. Jung Hu Lee went, that's the guy 1:01:31.280 --> 1:01:32.480 that I was hoping to make it back to me. 1:01:32.560 --> 1:01:36.200 So I get beef up that average. Well done, Constantine 1:01:36.240 --> 1:01:38.680 Contentin's got me a couple of times. So well done, JM, 1:01:38.760 --> 1:01:42.480 well done, Movie Betts, Legacy, Braxton, Garrett, go Vier. You're 1:01:42.560 --> 1:01:46.960 up here with seventeen seconds Welsh Jung Huli. Looking at 1:01:46.960 --> 1:01:49.479 the projection so far for him, projected to score sixty 1:01:49.600 --> 1:01:52.400 nine runs, hit ten homers, steal seven bags, hit two 1:01:52.440 --> 1:01:55.480 eighty four. I think he can go closer to ninety 1:01:55.560 --> 1:01:58.280 runs score in this Giants lineup. I think he can 1:01:58.400 --> 1:02:00.680 probably match that ten home runs, and I think the 1:02:00.680 --> 1:02:02.400 batting average is going to be over three hundred. What 1:02:02.400 --> 1:02:05.160 do you think here about these projections for Lee based 1:02:05.160 --> 1:02:07.360 off of what your expectations might be. 1:02:07.440 --> 1:02:10.920 Yeah, I think I view him as like a Luisa 1:02:11.040 --> 1:02:13.240 Rise of the outfield. I think this is a batting 1:02:13.280 --> 1:02:16.200 average and a runs play. I'm not counting on homers. 1:02:16.240 --> 1:02:18.880 I'm not counting on solar bases. I think RBIs will 1:02:18.880 --> 1:02:21.560 be non existent. So if you're down for a three 1:02:21.560 --> 1:02:23.760 category player or a two category player, then do it. 1:02:23.800 --> 1:02:26.080 I think he's a better Points League player, and I'm 1:02:26.120 --> 1:02:29.360 really only taking him if I have screwed up batting average, 1:02:29.360 --> 1:02:31.040 which a lot of people do. It's one of the 1:02:31.040 --> 1:02:33.760 most common things to screw up early in drafts. That's 1:02:33.800 --> 1:02:35.480 when I'm going to put my focus on him. He's 1:02:35.520 --> 1:02:37.880 not going to be a major draft target in non 1:02:37.920 --> 1:02:39.080 points league formats for me. 1:02:39.520 --> 1:02:41.320 All right, go Via, you made two picks here, so 1:02:41.400 --> 1:02:44.080 let's talk about your two. After Lee, Brax and Garrett, 1:02:44.120 --> 1:02:45.880 then you took in to my Aida. Then Mason Miller 1:02:45.880 --> 1:02:48.240 went at eighteen twelve, Guriel at nineteen oh one, and 1:02:48.240 --> 1:02:51.560 then Hunter Harvey in Washington the reliever at nineteen oh two. 1:02:51.640 --> 1:02:53.840 So my Aida and Harvey, let's talk about those two picks. 1:02:53.840 --> 1:02:57.800 Michael, Oh, well, I gotta give it up. I blew it, 1:02:58.040 --> 1:03:00.440 and I'm just gonna come clean right now because I 1:03:00.440 --> 1:03:03.600 should have taken Mason Miller instead of my Ata, and 1:03:03.680 --> 1:03:05.680 I probably could have got my Ada in three picks 1:03:05.760 --> 1:03:08.200 after that. But durs took Miller right after I took 1:03:08.200 --> 1:03:09.720 my ADA, and if I could do it over again, 1:03:09.800 --> 1:03:11.520 I would like to reverse that because there was a 1:03:11.520 --> 1:03:14.040 couple other starters I liked similar to my Aida, even 1:03:14.040 --> 1:03:16.400 though I love Maida this year, I'm big, very, very 1:03:16.400 --> 1:03:19.560 excited about my ADA in Detroit this season, and Mason 1:03:19.600 --> 1:03:21.680 Miller was kind of like the last closer I really like. 1:03:21.800 --> 1:03:24.680 Now Harvey's a guy who I prefer in Washington, but 1:03:24.840 --> 1:03:27.600 Finnegan's still around for now, but financially Finnigan will show 1:03:27.600 --> 1:03:30.560 his true colors, and I like Harvey's stuff to outlast 1:03:30.640 --> 1:03:31.440 him for saves. 1:03:31.640 --> 1:03:33.680 All right, So I took Varshow with my last pick, 1:03:33.720 --> 1:03:35.960 and because the pick predictor said that this next guy 1:03:36.040 --> 1:03:37.680 is going to make it back to me, so I 1:03:37.760 --> 1:03:39.680 want to see if he does, because if he does, 1:03:39.840 --> 1:03:42.400 I'm very happy. And he did. Logan o'hapy is gonna 1:03:42.400 --> 1:03:44.160 be my catcher here, so I'm gonna go ahead and 1:03:44.200 --> 1:03:48.000 take some more power. I gotta steel again, so making 1:03:48.120 --> 1:03:51.640 up time here, and these are very useful tools. Again 1:03:51.760 --> 1:03:54.080 draft Whizzard pick predictor it said I'll Hoppy had a 1:03:54.120 --> 1:03:56.000 good chance of making it back to me. Varshow did not, 1:03:56.160 --> 1:03:58.360 so I took varshow I got the outfielder locked in 1:03:58.760 --> 1:04:02.360 after Harvey went Jeremy pay Christopher Sanchez, Cutter Crawford, another 1:04:02.400 --> 1:04:04.080 guy that we've talked about quite a bit on the show, 1:04:04.320 --> 1:04:06.960 Garrett Whitlock by the play, not just Crawford, but Whitlock 1:04:07.000 --> 1:04:10.560 having a really good spring Govier. Could this finally be 1:04:10.640 --> 1:04:12.919 the year where Whitlock becomes a useful fantasy guy because 1:04:12.920 --> 1:04:14.880 I feel like we get teased every year with that guy. 1:04:15.680 --> 1:04:17.320 Is this the breakout? Possibly? 1:04:18.400 --> 1:04:21.200 Ooh, we're trying to put the past in the past. 1:04:21.240 --> 1:04:23.960 And that one season a couple years ago where Boston 1:04:24.000 --> 1:04:28.040 screwed around with Tanner, Houck and Whitlock in the rotation reliever. 1:04:28.160 --> 1:04:31.320 In the rotation reliever, it was it stunned their growth 1:04:31.320 --> 1:04:33.520 a bit. But I actually prefer how of all three 1:04:33.600 --> 1:04:36.680 right now, I'll go Hawk Whitlock and then Cutter Crawford 1:04:36.720 --> 1:04:39.760 looking at that Boston rotation. But I do admit that 1:04:40.000 --> 1:04:42.440 I'm a little skeptical about Whitlock because of the injuries. 1:04:42.480 --> 1:04:44.240 That's the only concern. But I actually think if he's 1:04:44.280 --> 1:04:47.080 healthy that we could be looking at a value play here. 1:04:47.200 --> 1:04:50.520 Joe, all right, So value there potentially on the board, 1:04:50.920 --> 1:04:53.240 but we'll see how that works out. He's still floating 1:04:53.240 --> 1:04:54.960 around there. We'll see if anybody drafts him. I took 1:04:55.000 --> 1:04:57.280 a hoppy after a hoppy, Carl's Correa goes at nineteen 1:04:57.320 --> 1:05:02.080 oh seven. Carlos Estevez back to back Carlos or Carlos I. 1:05:02.080 --> 1:05:04.160 I don't know what the plural of Carlos is. Lars 1:05:04.240 --> 1:05:08.120 neutmar murder, a murder of murder of Carlos's. Okay, there 1:05:08.120 --> 1:05:11.960 you go, Jonathan India at nineteen ten, Griffin Canning at 1:05:12.000 --> 1:05:14.600 nineteen eleven, and Welsh finally, after three hours, gets to 1:05:14.640 --> 1:05:15.440 make two more picks. 1:05:15.480 --> 1:05:18.040 So long, it's just the longest I've ever waited for 1:05:18.080 --> 1:05:20.800 a pick. I just took Justin Turner, who's gonna qualify 1:05:20.920 --> 1:05:23.000 in some formats, at second, and I get to throw 1:05:23.080 --> 1:05:25.720 him at second for the batting average push back up, 1:05:26.520 --> 1:05:30.120 and here's the deal. I just don't like any players 1:05:30.120 --> 1:05:35.240 that are left. But that is a critical error taking o'hopy. 1:05:35.360 --> 1:05:37.400 I wish I had taken o'hoppy earlier. I kind of 1:05:37.440 --> 1:05:40.040 screwed up there. I'm gonna go with Jonahim. I'm gonna 1:05:40.080 --> 1:05:42.960 lock in my catcher now a little bit higher batting average. 1:05:42.960 --> 1:05:45.680 I do like Mitch Garver quite a bit, but Jonaheim 1:05:45.720 --> 1:05:48.120 is a solid pick. But you know, I'm taking him 1:05:48.160 --> 1:05:50.160 at the end, and the system is telling me I'm 1:05:50.160 --> 1:05:53.120 getting a steal on this. I filled out my my 1:05:53.240 --> 1:05:56.360 roster outside of one pitching spot, so it's gonna time 1:05:56.440 --> 1:05:59.200 to take a turn to the bench and get some 1:05:59.480 --> 1:06:02.000 riskier And this is also where the system is going 1:06:02.040 --> 1:06:04.520 to probably hate or love if we take too many 1:06:04.600 --> 1:06:07.240 risks on the bench. But just telling everybody again, though 1:06:07.280 --> 1:06:10.640 we may may take some boring or type plays, get 1:06:10.680 --> 1:06:12.680 in and get some risk stuff in here. 1:06:12.840 --> 1:06:15.080 These are guys you can burst time for risk. I 1:06:15.120 --> 1:06:17.120 love by the way you taking Justin Turner there, I 1:06:17.160 --> 1:06:20.000 mean another guy, Yeah, give me two eighty twenty eighty eighty. 1:06:20.080 --> 1:06:22.080 I mean that's if he plays one hundred and forty 1:06:22.080 --> 1:06:23.720 games or thirty five, that's probably what you're gonna get. 1:06:23.720 --> 1:06:25.480 It just doesn't help my stolen bases. It is going 1:06:25.520 --> 1:06:28.439 to be a clear issue for me, especially when playing 1:06:28.480 --> 1:06:31.560 rod O. You don't want to punt. I do have 1:06:31.720 --> 1:06:34.760 a couple serious I'm just gonna let everybody know now 1:06:34.800 --> 1:06:38.480 I'm watching it live. I've got three to four categories 1:06:38.520 --> 1:06:42.200 that are serious problems for me. But I'm also on 1:06:42.280 --> 1:06:44.320 those others really high, So we're gonna have to see 1:06:44.320 --> 1:06:46.000 where the balance comes out, and I need to try 1:06:46.000 --> 1:06:48.000 to fix that. Wherever I can stolen base, then. 1:06:47.920 --> 1:06:51.840 You should finish sixth. By that account, like anything less 1:06:51.840 --> 1:06:53.320 six is a disappointment. 1:06:53.040 --> 1:06:55.840 You know, because I'm very, very high in like five 1:06:55.920 --> 1:06:57.320 or six other categories. 1:06:57.360 --> 1:06:59.280 So just all right. I got another steal, by the way, 1:06:59.280 --> 1:07:01.760 according to Draft Wizard, so that's three of my last 1:07:01.800 --> 1:07:03.520 five picks. I got the steel. 1:07:03.200 --> 1:07:05.640 Button he's on far Go Vier. 1:07:05.800 --> 1:07:08.240 Isn't it nice to have emoji's kind of like support 1:07:08.320 --> 1:07:10.560 you emotionally. I feel like that's a good thing sometimes, right, 1:07:10.600 --> 1:07:11.160 We all need that. 1:07:11.200 --> 1:07:13.280 It's never a negative. We need them in our lives. 1:07:13.320 --> 1:07:15.400 Without emoji's, country would be lost. 1:07:15.680 --> 1:07:18.040 If Welsh was running Draft Wizard, the poop emoji would 1:07:18.080 --> 1:07:19.760 be there and tell you this is a terrible pick. 1:07:19.920 --> 1:07:22.479 I would do emojis for every single pick. 1:07:24.880 --> 1:07:28.600 So after time, Kyle Harrison reed Detmer's Khybert Ruiz, Marcus 1:07:28.600 --> 1:07:31.400 Stroman Nester Cortez then to me at twenty oh seven, 1:07:31.440 --> 1:07:33.240 I took Jade Martinez because he's gonna be on a 1:07:33.280 --> 1:07:35.480 team in the next I don't know, twenty four to 1:07:35.520 --> 1:07:38.320 forty eight hours. Probably, well, I feel like so that's 1:07:38.320 --> 1:07:41.040 my DH so my utility guy. I feel pretty good. 1:07:41.400 --> 1:07:43.400 Mitch Garver was still on the board. That's another guy 1:07:43.480 --> 1:07:48.200 certainly worthy of taking, Mackenzie Gore, Brandon Lau, Ryan Maulcastle, Govier. 1:07:48.760 --> 1:07:50.520 You took Taylor Ward, who was the guy that if 1:07:50.520 --> 1:07:52.960 Martinez wasn't there, I was going to take. So that's 1:07:53.000 --> 1:07:55.320 a pretty good pick up in the twentieth round. A 1:07:55.360 --> 1:07:57.960 guy last year again, ninety seven games. But you know, 1:07:58.000 --> 1:08:00.160 you extrapolate those numbers, you're looking at a twenty home 1:08:00.240 --> 1:08:02.080 run guy, seventy five seventy five. 1:08:02.240 --> 1:08:04.960 Right, I'm curious what you guys think because he got 1:08:05.040 --> 1:08:07.880 hit last year in the face. It was awful. Okay, 1:08:07.920 --> 1:08:10.040 So Taylor Ward has to get over that mental hurdle. 1:08:10.240 --> 1:08:12.360 But if he gets over that mental hurdle, he's going 1:08:12.440 --> 1:08:14.520 to be the guy he was before. And I'm curious 1:08:14.520 --> 1:08:16.760 if you guys are buying into what I'm buying in. 1:08:16.800 --> 1:08:19.280 And that's the Ron Washington effect. I just feel like 1:08:19.360 --> 1:08:22.479 Ron Washington's gonna take this Angels team up a little 1:08:22.520 --> 1:08:24.000 bit more than where they've been recently. 1:08:24.920 --> 1:08:27.040 Run that effect. I think they're gonna run, and that's 1:08:27.080 --> 1:08:29.679 what they said they're gonna do. I know nobody. 1:08:29.680 --> 1:08:29.880 I know. 1:08:29.920 --> 1:08:32.360 We've talked with Scott Pianowski, which you can check out 1:08:32.360 --> 1:08:35.040 the entire interview on the YouTube channel. He's a great 1:08:35.040 --> 1:08:38.080 won during Fantasy Fest, said he didn't believe that Trout 1:08:38.120 --> 1:08:40.680 was gonna start running, even though that's gonna be like 1:08:40.680 --> 1:08:43.320 a Washington push. Maybe that's not gonna be the case. 1:08:43.400 --> 1:08:45.600 But that's why I'm so high on Zach Netto and 1:08:45.640 --> 1:08:47.719 I've talked. I've been putting him as a breakout player. 1:08:47.760 --> 1:08:50.080 I think he is going to be tremendous. I think 1:08:50.200 --> 1:08:52.160 Ring Gifo is another one of those players. I do 1:08:52.200 --> 1:08:54.120 think we're going to have a handful of players that 1:08:54.160 --> 1:08:56.000 are going to steal more bases under Washington. 1:08:56.080 --> 1:08:58.439 For sure, You've loved Netto since the day he was born. 1:08:58.800 --> 1:09:02.800 Yeah, that Meato guy always has been, always will be 1:09:03.400 --> 1:09:06.200 all right after you took war to Lodola went and 1:09:06.240 --> 1:09:09.760 Bowt Nailer. Then Parker Meadow's another Welsh favor here. Let's 1:09:09.760 --> 1:09:10.240 talk about it. 1:09:10.240 --> 1:09:15.400 Oh hey, that's twenty twenty potential shares the name of 1:09:15.439 --> 1:09:17.200 my son. My son actually got to meet him in 1:09:17.240 --> 1:09:19.320 the AFL and they he was so excited to say 1:09:19.360 --> 1:09:21.280 my name is Parker and he was like, my name 1:09:21.360 --> 1:09:24.799 is too, and they shared that friendship. But Parker Meadows 1:09:24.840 --> 1:09:25.800 is a guy that can leave out. 1:09:26.040 --> 1:09:27.080 We just became best friends. 1:09:27.240 --> 1:09:29.320 We did yeah, yeah, and they didn't do karate or 1:09:29.320 --> 1:09:33.040 anything like that. It's okay, But Parker Meadows led off 1:09:33.040 --> 1:09:35.320 a ton in the AFL. There's always the possibility that 1:09:35.400 --> 1:09:36.720 could put him in that. I don't think they will, 1:09:36.760 --> 1:09:39.280 but they could put him in those situations. But there's 1:09:39.320 --> 1:09:42.280 twenty power, there's twenty stolen bases at the back end 1:09:42.360 --> 1:09:44.599 of an order. He might be running a little bit 1:09:44.600 --> 1:09:46.600 more too, which could get those up. So maybe you 1:09:46.640 --> 1:09:48.280 can get a fifteen to twenty five if he plays 1:09:48.280 --> 1:09:50.559 the whole season. He's a cool five tool player that 1:09:50.640 --> 1:09:54.559 might not suffer anywhere. He's a great fourth, fifth, outfield 1:09:54.600 --> 1:09:55.920 or even a bench guy if you can. 1:09:55.840 --> 1:09:58.920 Take him all right, So after Meadows, Kerry Carpenter, Andrew 1:09:58.960 --> 1:10:02.320 Abbott RANGIFO, so Devin Williams because I can't as a 1:10:02.360 --> 1:10:04.280 twenty first round. He's been shut down. He's supposed to 1:10:04.280 --> 1:10:06.280 be back in three months, so maybe I get him 1:10:06.320 --> 1:10:08.280 back in June and that's some more saves for me, 1:10:08.280 --> 1:10:09.840 because I think he's gonna go back right back into 1:10:09.920 --> 1:10:12.160 that role. I would be shocked if he didn't. Suarez 1:10:12.200 --> 1:10:14.320 at twenty one oh seven, Kyle bradsh at twenty one 1:10:14.360 --> 1:10:16.680 oh eight. So it's the round obviously where we take 1:10:16.840 --> 1:10:20.559 hurt pictures, folks, twenty first round market at home. So 1:10:20.640 --> 1:10:22.920 you're ready for hurt pictures in the twenty first round. 1:10:23.280 --> 1:10:26.160 Mannick is up, then mister Buster Nate Miller Welsh. You've 1:10:26.200 --> 1:10:28.360 got two picks coming up sometime this century. What do 1:10:28.400 --> 1:10:29.200 you want to do with these two? 1:10:29.439 --> 1:10:31.559 I've actually wanted to take Bradish. That was where I 1:10:31.640 --> 1:10:33.519 was gonna go with it, but I. 1:10:33.439 --> 1:10:35.920 Can't help what So again, here's another thing. So Senga 1:10:36.000 --> 1:10:38.320 goes and then Bradish goes. Even later, who is the 1:10:38.360 --> 1:10:40.360 best ROI of the hurt pictures because like sures are 1:10:40.400 --> 1:10:42.320 still on the board too, Like where how do you 1:10:42.400 --> 1:10:44.639 justify and when you justify taking some of these hurt guys, 1:10:44.680 --> 1:10:47.080 because that's something that's been very popular on the questions 1:10:47.080 --> 1:10:47.960 of the chat here today. 1:10:48.160 --> 1:10:49.840 Well, I think it's when you can put them on 1:10:49.880 --> 1:10:51.439 the bench, or you can put them at the back, 1:10:51.479 --> 1:10:53.080 at the very very back end of the rotation. It 1:10:53.120 --> 1:10:55.840 also depends on probably the risk that you've taken on 1:10:56.360 --> 1:10:58.599 as this draft has gone on, Like if you've got 1:10:58.600 --> 1:11:01.080 a bunch of hurt starting pick, you might want to 1:11:01.160 --> 1:11:03.519 think twice before you end up doing that. So I 1:11:03.600 --> 1:11:05.679 think in the spot that I'm in, or that we're 1:11:05.720 --> 1:11:07.400 in at this you know, two point fifty where we're 1:11:07.439 --> 1:11:10.839 drafting bench guys, if he starts or if he misses 1:11:10.880 --> 1:11:13.040 just a little bit of time and Bradish comes back healthy, 1:11:13.520 --> 1:11:16.439 it's top fifteen, top twenty sp So that's why it's 1:11:16.439 --> 1:11:18.760 worth the risk, especially in a rodo formats even a 1:11:18.800 --> 1:11:21.840 little bit more. But it didn't happen. I didn't get them. 1:11:21.840 --> 1:11:24.240 But I actually think Senga and Bradish should be a 1:11:24.240 --> 1:11:26.160 lot closer. So I'm a little bit surprised that they 1:11:26.160 --> 1:11:26.880 were that far off. 1:11:27.160 --> 1:11:30.000 Aren't Cole and Bradish closer? Or am I missing something there? 1:11:30.040 --> 1:11:33.280 I mean help well, no, not really not on the 1:11:33.320 --> 1:11:36.120 ranks in the ECR, Cole is still higher significantly than that. 1:11:36.040 --> 1:11:37.680 I guess, I mean by the elbow. In the end, 1:11:37.800 --> 1:11:39.760 it seems like they had similar injuries. 1:11:39.400 --> 1:11:42.240 So it seems like neither of them to me are 1:11:42.280 --> 1:11:44.080 good investments this year. Like I keep coming back to 1:11:44.120 --> 1:11:45.720 Senga being the guy who's like, all right, well it's 1:11:45.720 --> 1:11:48.240 a shoulder thing. It's not that it's not serious. And 1:11:48.240 --> 1:11:50.320 of course I always think negatively when it's the Mets, 1:11:50.360 --> 1:11:53.719 because I've been trained that way. But Govier, it feels 1:11:53.760 --> 1:11:57.000 like there's a path where Senga is like, yeah, he's 1:11:57.040 --> 1:11:59.519 gonna be okay. It seems like we were doing the 1:11:59.600 --> 1:12:03.599 right due diligence here on it, whereas the possibility of 1:12:03.640 --> 1:12:06.439 the entire season being a wash for Brash and Cole 1:12:06.560 --> 1:12:09.479 just seems like a bigger potential hurdle from me. Where 1:12:09.479 --> 1:12:11.519 do use dat goober? On drafting some of these injured 1:12:11.520 --> 1:12:14.720 guys too? I mean guys like Devin Williams another guy too, 1:12:14.800 --> 1:12:16.400 Like when is it a value or when is it 1:12:16.720 --> 1:12:18.080 just not worth your draft capital? 1:12:19.040 --> 1:12:23.400 It's only worth it if it's a very final four 1:12:23.479 --> 1:12:26.080 or five roster spots at the very end of a draft. 1:12:26.200 --> 1:12:29.320 If it's a thirty team or excuse me, thirty roster 1:12:29.400 --> 1:12:31.519 places and you got twenty six, twenty seven, twenty eight, 1:12:31.560 --> 1:12:33.960 twenty nine, Yeah, take a shot there. But otherwise I'll 1:12:33.960 --> 1:12:36.559 staying away for pitchers who are borderline about to be 1:12:36.680 --> 1:12:39.719 on the shelf for a lot longer than we can expect. 1:12:39.760 --> 1:12:42.439 And to me, Cole and Bradish are much more riskier 1:12:42.479 --> 1:12:44.960 than Senga, who's I know, shoulders just gonna be just 1:12:45.000 --> 1:12:47.280 as a big a deal. But it seems like he 1:12:47.320 --> 1:12:48.800 has more of a chance to get back in the 1:12:48.840 --> 1:12:52.160 mix here than those do. And I also think Verlander 1:12:52.200 --> 1:12:54.439 is a guy who's actually think he's just taking his time, 1:12:54.560 --> 1:12:56.680 I really do. I know he's got an issue, but 1:12:56.680 --> 1:12:58.240 I also think they want to gear him up for 1:12:58.280 --> 1:13:00.960 the playoff run because it's used to they're the every year. 1:13:01.479 --> 1:13:02.880 I think that's where he is due too. I think 1:13:02.880 --> 1:13:04.880 it's the same thing too. Like you, you shouldn't rush 1:13:04.920 --> 1:13:06.559 him because you need him in October more they need 1:13:06.640 --> 1:13:08.639 him in April. You know, you're just still win games. 1:13:08.640 --> 1:13:10.120 You're still going to be up at the front. Plus 1:13:10.640 --> 1:13:13.320 rotations still fall, guys like Hunter Brown and Xavier Christian 1:13:13.360 --> 1:13:15.600 Xavier who you're worrying about. Okay, what are they going 1:13:15.680 --> 1:13:17.439 to give us this year? And you know, if they're 1:13:17.479 --> 1:13:19.439 not giving us what we need come the stretch run 1:13:19.520 --> 1:13:21.960 in August in September, you have to lean on Verlander 1:13:21.960 --> 1:13:24.280 even more potentially, so speaking of her pitchers, I just 1:13:24.320 --> 1:13:26.160 took one as well, so I'm staying with the theme 1:13:26.200 --> 1:13:30.040 of the show, saying Max Scherzer, so well, she took 1:13:30.240 --> 1:13:32.519 Kellen Nick and Todz Bradley. I want to go back 1:13:32.520 --> 1:13:35.800 to your picks here. So are you concerned yet about 1:13:35.840 --> 1:13:37.880 Kellen ic Spray because I think you should be. 1:13:38.120 --> 1:13:41.720 Yeah, I'm Briza hated the pick in there. I get 1:13:41.760 --> 1:13:44.479 you guys hating it. I don't like that he's literally 1:13:44.560 --> 1:13:47.160 the era's worst spring training player of all time. But 1:13:47.200 --> 1:13:49.840 it is spring training and it is just the world's 1:13:49.840 --> 1:13:52.360 worst player of all time, and he might be bringing 1:13:52.360 --> 1:13:56.120 in Dval really took off me ever doing any type 1:13:56.160 --> 1:13:59.320 of hype on it. But we're on the bench. I'm 1:13:59.320 --> 1:14:02.479 going to take him in case it does transfer back 1:14:02.560 --> 1:14:05.120 out of spring training into the season starting well, because 1:14:05.360 --> 1:14:08.080 he's a legit twenty twenty option. Like I said, it's 1:14:08.080 --> 1:14:10.679 a better ballpark factor for left handed hitters. It doesn't work, 1:14:10.720 --> 1:14:12.479 I'm gonna move off from him. This is a guy 1:14:12.680 --> 1:14:15.120 was taking inside the top two hundred earlier. It was wrong. 1:14:15.400 --> 1:14:17.559 Now I got him around two sixty. That's a much 1:14:17.720 --> 1:14:18.879 easier thing to stommach. 1:14:19.920 --> 1:14:23.280 After you took Todz Bradley another guy also injured. Again, 1:14:23.320 --> 1:14:25.439 these are the theme of the late rounds. Ryan McMahon, 1:14:25.520 --> 1:14:29.160 Jackson Winskys, Shane Basse also injured. Lance Lynn. Had he 1:14:29.160 --> 1:14:30.599 made it to me, I would have taken Lynn because 1:14:30.640 --> 1:14:32.320 give me, you know the six months, give me a 1:14:32.360 --> 1:14:34.880 shot here that Lance Lynn has something left in the tank. 1:14:34.920 --> 1:14:37.280 There again the strikeouts were there is just the results. 1:14:37.280 --> 1:14:39.640 We're all over the place. Giancarlo Stanton at twenty two 1:14:39.680 --> 1:14:44.360 oh six, the poster boy for injuries, Max Scherzer, Brian Abreu. 1:14:44.520 --> 1:14:47.320 Then we have aj Puck, Mitch Garver goes at twenty 1:14:47.400 --> 1:14:49.760 two ten. A great value there a guy hitting clean 1:14:49.840 --> 1:14:53.120 up again, Brendan Donovan goes to Govier and then Durris. 1:14:53.200 --> 1:14:56.880 It's Rhyse Olsen, Louis Varlin, Matt Wallner another outfielder for you. 1:14:56.960 --> 1:14:59.200 So Donovan and Walner, let's talk about these two picture 1:14:59.240 --> 1:14:59.720 you made here. 1:15:00.240 --> 1:15:04.360 Donovan one more time position, little flexibility, and I ad 1:15:04.360 --> 1:15:08.080 bet he's a little bit more useful in obp leagues. 1:15:08.120 --> 1:15:10.679 But even then Roto Average leaves that we're doing here. 1:15:10.720 --> 1:15:13.479 I like Donovan because he's got I mean, he'll. 1:15:13.280 --> 1:15:14.679 Be at the top of that lineup. 1:15:14.880 --> 1:15:16.960 He will be, So that's a good place to be. 1:15:17.320 --> 1:15:19.120 I don't know how long it'll last or if it sticks, 1:15:19.320 --> 1:15:22.320 but I do know that I like his ability to 1:15:22.479 --> 1:15:25.760 provide flexibility for me. And then taking Walner, that's just 1:15:25.800 --> 1:15:28.360 a power bat that I like. I think he's got 1:15:28.840 --> 1:15:30.800 a lot of potential this year if he can get 1:15:30.800 --> 1:15:32.840 the advance and stay consistent. I don't think it was 1:15:32.840 --> 1:15:34.840 a fluke last year. Every time he's come up to 1:15:34.840 --> 1:15:36.759 the majors, he's shown a little something. And I'm expecting 1:15:36.800 --> 1:15:39.720 Matt Walder to take another step forward in twenty twenty four. 1:15:40.040 --> 1:15:42.560 All right, So Walner off the board, Chris Bryant, zachnetto 1:15:42.640 --> 1:15:45.680 there he goes Ryan Presley, Junior kaman Aro to Joey p. 1:15:45.920 --> 1:15:48.400 God, that makes me so mad. I missed Cavi and 1:15:48.479 --> 1:15:51.280 Narow and I got excited and you did it. 1:15:51.360 --> 1:15:54.760 Ah, that's right, I did it, Dio Welsh. By the way, 1:15:55.000 --> 1:15:58.120 this particular roster here, my weakness is kind of third 1:15:58.120 --> 1:16:00.200 base because Garcia is more of like a you know, 1:16:00.479 --> 1:16:03.800 middle infield kind of guy. Cam and Arow. Hopefully I'll 1:16:03.840 --> 1:16:06.160 have him sometime in May on this roster. Theoretically, as 1:16:06.160 --> 1:16:08.680 I'm drafting, we do every draft here as though we're 1:16:08.680 --> 1:16:11.000 gonna play this season out. We don't muck around these 1:16:11.000 --> 1:16:14.000 parts of fancy crosmob. Okay, we're really thinking because we 1:16:14.080 --> 1:16:16.880 want you to see and learn from these drafts as 1:16:16.920 --> 1:16:19.519 much as you possibly can as we're doing them. Why 1:16:19.560 --> 1:16:21.800 we're doing the picks, what the mindset is, and how 1:16:21.840 --> 1:16:23.240 to take that. I can't believe it is the last 1:16:23.240 --> 1:16:25.960 one too, So Netto off the board, Cam and Arrow 1:16:26.000 --> 1:16:28.400 off the board, Cold Keith off the board. A lot 1:16:28.439 --> 1:16:31.040 of rookies flying off here, Emmitt Shehann and John Gray 1:16:31.080 --> 1:16:36.439 off the board. JP Crawford at twenty three ten Welsh, 1:16:36.560 --> 1:16:38.559 what's the backup plan here? I think I know what 1:16:38.640 --> 1:16:40.759 it is, but I want to hear it from your house. 1:16:40.880 --> 1:16:42.200 Don't think you know what it is? 1:16:42.280 --> 1:16:42.880 I think I do. 1:16:43.120 --> 1:16:45.840 I'm gonna go with one position player and I'm gonna 1:16:45.880 --> 1:16:49.840 go with a picture. Who do you think it is? 1:16:49.880 --> 1:16:51.400 Am I forgetting someone that I should be. 1:16:51.479 --> 1:16:53.720 I will be honest with you. I will tell you 1:16:53.840 --> 1:16:55.160 if I who I think. 1:16:55.160 --> 1:16:57.320 Is well, I know the hitter I'm thinking of is not. 1:16:57.439 --> 1:16:59.800 So I'm actually gonna just do it here. We're gonna 1:16:59.800 --> 1:17:04.800 go with Johann Rojas for stolen bases because he's one 1:17:04.840 --> 1:17:08.040 of the higher projected play even in three hundred plus 1:17:08.040 --> 1:17:10.760 of plate appearances, it's like twenty plus stolen bases. He 1:17:10.800 --> 1:17:12.960 could steal forty if given the opportunity. He's like a 1:17:13.000 --> 1:17:16.759 poor man's estuary Ruiz. And then as far as pitching goes, 1:17:16.840 --> 1:17:21.960 I'm gonna go for I'm going to go for my 1:17:22.040 --> 1:17:24.280 guy Michael Waka, as I've taken him in every single 1:17:24.320 --> 1:17:26.920 draft and I love taking him on the bench or 1:17:26.920 --> 1:17:28.800 as a back end starting pitcher. Who did you think 1:17:28.840 --> 1:17:30.080 I was going to go with them? 1:17:30.280 --> 1:17:31.920 Well, you'll see because I'm going to take him with 1:17:31.960 --> 1:17:32.800 my next pick if he. 1:17:32.760 --> 1:17:34.880 Makes me so is going to be a rookie? 1:17:34.960 --> 1:17:37.639 Is who you're thinking it is? It is? We'll see 1:17:37.680 --> 1:17:39.360 if you can guess which one it might be. But 1:17:39.840 --> 1:17:41.280 who knows. He might not make it to me with 1:17:41.320 --> 1:17:41.920 the way this crew. 1:17:42.000 --> 1:17:42.719 I hope he doesn't. 1:17:44.479 --> 1:17:46.800 I hope he does, and I think I think he might. 1:17:47.760 --> 1:17:50.760 So we shall see here as time goes on. I believed. 1:17:51.880 --> 1:17:55.719 So let's recap the picks here going forward, Jordan Hicks 1:17:55.720 --> 1:17:59.519 after Waka, then Will Smith relief pitcher. Three picks left 1:17:59.560 --> 1:18:01.280 to me, and then we're gonna break it all down, 1:18:01.320 --> 1:18:02.880 So make sure you stick with us, because when this 1:18:02.960 --> 1:18:05.400 is over, we're gonna see the draft grades. Who hated 1:18:05.439 --> 1:18:08.080 the teams, who loved the teams, and where we all finished. 1:18:08.760 --> 1:18:10.960 Go va, if you have a prediction here, where do 1:18:11.000 --> 1:18:12.960 you think you're finished in this draft? In terms of 1:18:13.000 --> 1:18:15.479 the analysis. Are you at the top of the third, 1:18:15.560 --> 1:18:17.240 the middle, or the back end here? 1:18:17.920 --> 1:18:22.200 Legendary fantasy pros grade. I'm excited to see what happens, 1:18:22.240 --> 1:18:25.400 but I'm gonna say this. I think I'm probably in 1:18:26.160 --> 1:18:29.920 fourth or fifth. That's crushed Steel's Actually I thought I 1:18:30.040 --> 1:18:33.880 power nice balance there as well. With the power betting average, 1:18:33.880 --> 1:18:35.920 I think I'm pretty sound. Maybe pitching will be the 1:18:35.920 --> 1:18:38.000 weakest spot. Actually, I think I'll actually get crushed in 1:18:38.000 --> 1:18:38.639 starting pitching. 1:18:39.240 --> 1:18:41.760 Okay, so starting pitching is the weakness there. I think 1:18:41.760 --> 1:18:43.800 I'll watch you pretty good about my starting pitching. Again, 1:18:44.280 --> 1:18:46.280 everybody knows me. I'm gonna wait a little bit longer 1:18:46.320 --> 1:18:48.840 for saves. That's just how I roll. It's one thing 1:18:48.880 --> 1:18:51.320 you can always find. The waiver wire every single year closed, 1:18:51.439 --> 1:18:55.280 absolutely change. It's I'm never gonna waste draft capital if 1:18:55.320 --> 1:18:55.880 I can avoid it. 1:18:55.880 --> 1:18:59.000 All right, every bit of your fab on going for 1:18:59.080 --> 1:19:01.800 one closer who gets absolutely. 1:19:02.040 --> 1:19:03.080 That's by Daniel Bard. 1:19:03.120 --> 1:19:05.200 A couple of years ago. Daniel Bard had like thirty saves. 1:19:05.200 --> 1:19:06.200 He was a big success. 1:19:06.479 --> 1:19:09.679 There you go, so Hicks, Will Smith, Josh Bell, Uhaneo Suarrez, 1:19:09.720 --> 1:19:12.680 d l Hall. Nice election there too. All Skeens for 1:19:12.760 --> 1:19:14.880 me at twenty four oh seven. I don't think it's 1:19:14.880 --> 1:19:17.240 gonna be long, Welsh. I think we're looking at a 1:19:17.360 --> 1:19:20.960 very very similar path that we saw Steven Strasburg take 1:19:21.040 --> 1:19:23.759 a few years ago, where he is selling him by June. Yeah, 1:19:23.840 --> 1:19:25.519 I mean, what how do you have to lose? You're 1:19:25.520 --> 1:19:28.160 the pirates. Get this kid up there. It's electric, it's fun. 1:19:28.560 --> 1:19:30.640 Paul skeins in June. That's what you do. You're not 1:19:30.640 --> 1:19:32.840 gonna compete anyway. You'll shut him down at the end 1:19:32.840 --> 1:19:34.599 of August and everything will be fine. But you got 1:19:34.600 --> 1:19:37.320 to show the fan base that you are gonna play 1:19:37.360 --> 1:19:40.880 some of the guys here. Seth Lugo goes next. Welsh, 1:19:41.000 --> 1:19:42.760 what do you think of Skeens and would you be 1:19:42.840 --> 1:19:44.800 drafting and stashing him or are you just trying to 1:19:45.080 --> 1:19:47.080 blow all your fab on him whenever he gets called up, 1:19:47.080 --> 1:19:49.519 because you know that's the guy people are gonna blow fab. 1:19:49.400 --> 1:19:51.720 On Yeah, I am, well. I mean I've said this 1:19:51.760 --> 1:19:53.400 a bunch like that's what I want to do. Like 1:19:53.520 --> 1:19:56.639 in these last couple of picks, projections, whatever be damned. 1:19:57.080 --> 1:20:00.320 I want to take players with the high upside, and 1:20:00.680 --> 1:20:03.400 if I then can't stomach it, you can like cuddable 1:20:03.400 --> 1:20:06.000 players with the biggest upsides. Who are those players, Junior Camenio, 1:20:06.360 --> 1:20:09.120 Paul Skins, any of these rookies that are still floating 1:20:09.120 --> 1:20:12.160 out there. That's absolutely what you do, because I don't 1:20:12.200 --> 1:20:14.840 want to spend my fab on them. I would rather 1:20:14.920 --> 1:20:17.080 be invested in being sneaky and trying to be a 1:20:17.120 --> 1:20:18.760 week early. But who are the guys that are gonna 1:20:18.760 --> 1:20:21.040 have the most fab the guy that takes over a 1:20:21.080 --> 1:20:24.680 closer position or the young hot rookie that's coming up. 1:20:24.720 --> 1:20:28.639 Paul Skins will go for eighty percent, probably a ton 1:20:28.640 --> 1:20:31.240 of people's fab if he is sitting out on the 1:20:31.240 --> 1:20:33.120 wire and you don't get him early enough. 1:20:33.760 --> 1:20:36.519 Agreed, you're gonna hate my next pick. Welsh. By the way, 1:20:36.640 --> 1:20:38.080 if you think you didn't like that one, wait you 1:20:38.120 --> 1:20:40.120 see the next one. You're gonna really hate that one. 1:20:40.160 --> 1:20:42.320 I can't wait to do it because I think I 1:20:42.680 --> 1:20:45.080 think you're gonna be equally proud of me and angry 1:20:45.120 --> 1:20:48.440 at the same time, which sounds about right for our relationship. 1:20:48.600 --> 1:20:50.920 All right, so let's continue on here recapping the picks. 1:20:50.920 --> 1:20:52.479 We're almost done. We're in the last round here. We 1:20:52.640 --> 1:20:55.120 appreciate everybody hanging out with us. Of course, our producer 1:20:55.240 --> 1:20:58.679 John who's running the show today. Everybody joining us live. 1:20:58.760 --> 1:21:01.639 Make sure if you haven't already defans forro his MLB channel, 1:21:01.920 --> 1:21:03.960 ring those bell for notifications. We're giving away tons of 1:21:03.960 --> 1:21:07.120 free stuff. That trophy smack belt we're given away there. 1:21:07.400 --> 1:21:10.360 We're giving away one year free premium upgrades to Brent 1:21:10.439 --> 1:21:14.679 Rooker goes after Lugo than Kepler, then Ezekiel Duran to Govier, 1:21:15.640 --> 1:21:18.439 Dela cruz ty France. Let's talk about your last two 1:21:18.439 --> 1:21:21.479 picks there, Rafaela and Duran go Vier, how do you 1:21:21.479 --> 1:21:22.600 feel about these elections? 1:21:22.880 --> 1:21:25.040 Well, Welsh was just kind of saying it some high 1:21:25.120 --> 1:21:28.880 upside guys and Sadani. Raphaela is a lot of fun. 1:21:28.920 --> 1:21:32.040 He's got shortstop eligibility and outfield. So we take a 1:21:32.040 --> 1:21:34.439 shout here that he can actually stick in the lineup 1:21:34.479 --> 1:21:38.000 be a part of this Boston team now and Ezekiel 1:21:38.040 --> 1:21:42.439 Durant is just such a useful player to have in 1:21:42.560 --> 1:21:45.800 multiple formats because he's played so many positions. He doesn't 1:21:45.840 --> 1:21:47.559 walk a lot, but he makes a lot of contact, 1:21:47.760 --> 1:21:50.280 and he always seems to surprise you every time you 1:21:50.320 --> 1:21:51.479 want to count him out. You want to go with 1:21:51.479 --> 1:21:52.880 Corey Seager, you want to go with all the best 1:21:52.880 --> 1:21:55.960 talent that Texas has. We know how much talent Texas 1:21:56.000 --> 1:21:58.599 has when it comes to hitting, But Durant's always gonna 1:21:58.600 --> 1:21:59.960 be around and he's going to be in that lineup 1:22:00.080 --> 1:22:03.479 more often than not. So that's why I took my boy, Ezekiel. 1:22:03.240 --> 1:22:06.200 Jordan Westburg, Tyler Well South Frelick. And then it's speaking 1:22:06.200 --> 1:22:08.759 about guys who played different positions. He qualifies a short stoff, 1:22:08.760 --> 1:22:11.080 but it's gonna be the starting center field or opening 1:22:11.200 --> 1:22:15.080 day for the Padres. Jackson Merrill, let's go Welsh. How 1:22:15.120 --> 1:22:16.120 do you feel about that selection? 1:22:16.200 --> 1:22:18.040 I love that pick. I mean that would have been 1:22:18.560 --> 1:22:21.559 I mean, arguably, taking Jackson Merrill over Kelnick would have 1:22:21.560 --> 1:22:24.280 probably been a smarter movie because he's gonna have, you know, 1:22:24.360 --> 1:22:29.519 infield eligibility and outfield eligibility. It's gonna hurt your draft grade, 1:22:29.560 --> 1:22:32.400 but I think Jackson Merril is like the prime player 1:22:32.520 --> 1:22:34.320 you take on the back end of your draft. Here's 1:22:34.320 --> 1:22:36.479 the only negative is if you do wait for your 1:22:36.520 --> 1:22:38.559 draft to be closer to the season. If Jackson Merril 1:22:38.600 --> 1:22:41.400 shows out at all uh in this Korea series, watch 1:22:41.439 --> 1:22:43.200 out like Jackson Merril. You get a home or you 1:22:43.200 --> 1:22:45.320 get some stolen bases, a couple of hits, then his 1:22:45.439 --> 1:22:47.719 draft stock is gonna rise. But I think it's a 1:22:47.760 --> 1:22:48.599 fantastic pick. 1:22:48.640 --> 1:22:51.519 He's gonna be the first guy off waivers in Week one, 1:22:51.600 --> 1:22:53.599 Like I'm already gonna be doing that video. Jackson Merrel 1:22:53.680 --> 1:22:55.759 is gonna be the first guy we talked about Freeley 1:22:55.840 --> 1:22:58.759 James Wood, another guy will talk about to Anthony Rizzo, 1:22:58.800 --> 1:23:01.439 Luis Everarino, Tim Anderson Welsh last pick of the draft? 1:23:01.439 --> 1:23:02.360 What do you have for the people? 1:23:03.160 --> 1:23:05.679 It looks like I got sniped. Everything kind of froze 1:23:05.680 --> 1:23:06.160 out for me. 1:23:06.240 --> 1:23:13.320 So oh here from the Draft Wizard for me? So 1:23:13.600 --> 1:23:17.040 see Draft Wizard? Is that a C for you? 1:23:17.200 --> 1:23:19.479 Is that seventy six? I passed? 1:23:19.520 --> 1:23:22.919 But hey, Chris Welsh, I think you're gonna be pleasantly 1:23:22.960 --> 1:23:26.000 surprised because you finished better than me. You were number three. 1:23:26.200 --> 1:23:29.800 I was number four. Welsh way to end the draft 1:23:29.800 --> 1:23:31.800 season on a high note. My friend, how do you feel? 1:23:31.960 --> 1:23:33.760 That's how we do it? We feel good. We did 1:23:33.800 --> 1:23:36.559 not I did not win, but I did beat both 1:23:36.600 --> 1:23:38.640 of your mugs. And that's really the only thing that 1:23:38.680 --> 1:23:41.320 matters at the draft is being the smartest person in 1:23:41.360 --> 1:23:43.640 the room. But I will tell you there is is 1:23:43.680 --> 1:23:46.599 the most correct thing we had in this entire draft 1:23:46.760 --> 1:23:48.640 was Joe, you and I saying that Durs was going 1:23:48.720 --> 1:23:52.320 to dominate, because he did with the number one grade. 1:23:52.360 --> 1:23:54.559 Only three of us got A grades. It was Mookie 1:23:54.560 --> 1:23:58.439 Bett's Legacy team myself and endures with the number one projected. 1:23:58.479 --> 1:24:00.160 I'm excited to look at these insights. 1:23:59.800 --> 1:24:01.920 Though I was sandwich between both the top two. By 1:24:01.960 --> 1:24:03.920 the way, Durs and Mookie betts Legacy. 1:24:03.760 --> 1:24:06.479 Just say yeah. I can also tell you that Joe 1:24:06.479 --> 1:24:10.800 Piezapia liked my draft more than any other experts ken me. Again. 1:24:11.200 --> 1:24:14.360 Of course, Scott White didn't like it, Ariel Cohen didn't 1:24:14.400 --> 1:24:17.439 like it, but Eryl never likes my draft, so that's fine. Well, 1:24:17.520 --> 1:24:19.200 she liked your draft more than anybody else. 1:24:19.280 --> 1:24:22.360 Well, my dear friend Jesse Severe from Dynasty's Sports Life 1:24:22.400 --> 1:24:25.479 like this the most ario Cohen liked it the second most. 1:24:25.520 --> 1:24:29.000 He loved my judge pick their go Vier. Uh, he 1:24:29.040 --> 1:24:32.439 loved Goffman, and he loved Kirby, Brandon Myers, Travis Argo. 1:24:32.600 --> 1:24:35.640 And this is maybe the toughest thing to get to 1:24:35.680 --> 1:24:39.000 be liked. Mike Mayer liked my draft, which doesn't like 1:24:39.040 --> 1:24:42.720 anything that's Andy Barns hated me, Fred Zinki hated me. 1:24:42.920 --> 1:24:45.640 Want me in the garbage? Dalton Dell don all of Yahoo, 1:24:46.200 --> 1:24:49.040 I'm not having it. Just Scott White and keV also 1:24:49.520 --> 1:24:50.439 were in the hate group. 1:24:50.760 --> 1:24:53.080 Govier, any expert opinions there? Do you want to agree 1:24:53.120 --> 1:24:53.680 or disagree with? 1:24:54.680 --> 1:24:55.240 Uh? 1:24:55.280 --> 1:24:55.559 Boy? 1:24:55.920 --> 1:24:56.720 Am I business up to here? 1:24:56.760 --> 1:24:57.880 Am I supposed to see that? Somewhere? 1:24:58.479 --> 1:24:58.599 Are? 1:24:59.479 --> 1:25:03.000 You click on the projected standings button and then you 1:25:03.080 --> 1:25:05.439 get the projected standings and it gives you the experts 1:25:05.439 --> 1:25:07.680 that liked your draft, who liked it the most, I've 1:25:07.680 --> 1:25:08.439 got opinions? 1:25:08.520 --> 1:25:09.439 Oh, I see it, I see it. 1:25:09.560 --> 1:25:11.320 Okay, okay, are you ready? 1:25:11.439 --> 1:25:12.920 Yeah? Gott YEA, let's hear it. If you got it, 1:25:13.000 --> 1:25:13.280 let's go. 1:25:13.600 --> 1:25:16.120 Oh, I'm I'm locked out. You got him? Go ahead? 1:25:16.760 --> 1:25:20.440 So keV from Rodoballer loved your draft the most. Frank Amerant, 1:25:20.640 --> 1:25:24.040 Mike Mayer, Dalton Delle Don and Oh, I've never had 1:25:24.040 --> 1:25:27.920 this one. Kelly Kirby loved your draft, going wow. Scott 1:25:27.960 --> 1:25:32.160 Youngsen hated Jesse severe, hated Andy Barns. Nate Miller, who 1:25:32.200 --> 1:25:35.439 was in the draft also hated you and Peter Jesse. 1:25:36.479 --> 1:25:37.559 He would never say that too bad. 1:25:37.560 --> 1:25:39.200 All right, go Vier, Let's go through your team. You're 1:25:39.240 --> 1:25:43.360 our guest here on the program. Rutchman, Torklsen, Kim, Bobby Witt, 1:25:43.360 --> 1:25:48.000 Dela Cruz, Josh Naylor, Morel, harrisjre So, Olaier, Taylor, Ward, Parker, Meadows, 1:25:48.040 --> 1:25:56.000 Then Bohm, Gilbert Daval, Ryan, Clay Holmes, ro Don Hunter, Brown, Savali, Maida, Hunter, Harvey, Donovan, Walner, Durant, 1:25:56.120 --> 1:25:58.599 and Raphaela like to me, it feels like he got 1:25:58.640 --> 1:26:01.280 dinged on the pitchings. Is definitely some moments there where 1:26:01.600 --> 1:26:03.880 you don't have that one true big guy at the 1:26:03.920 --> 1:26:07.519 top of this rotation, No Castillo or Nola or Corbyn Burns. 1:26:07.720 --> 1:26:09.320 I think that's probably the only thing. The rest of 1:26:09.360 --> 1:26:11.160 the offense I think is a great team. 1:26:11.720 --> 1:26:14.679 I think my offense looks very tasty. Steels are locked 1:26:14.720 --> 1:26:18.439 in with Kim and Ellie alone, but I got other 1:26:18.439 --> 1:26:20.160 guys that can fill the void too. With morell he 1:26:20.160 --> 1:26:22.800 can steal some bags. So steels are good. Power is good. 1:26:22.840 --> 1:26:25.680 Like I said, I've got Torkelsen who's gonna repeat what 1:26:25.760 --> 1:26:29.799 he did and maybe top it this year. So the offense, 1:26:29.840 --> 1:26:32.800 I'm very satisfied with my pitching. I think it's okay. 1:26:32.840 --> 1:26:34.640 I really do. I think that we're gonna see good 1:26:34.640 --> 1:26:37.240 things for Rodn. People don't trust Carlos Roddan, so I 1:26:37.360 --> 1:26:40.839 understand why he wouldn't be highly valued by the general 1:26:40.960 --> 1:26:44.360 masses here. But overall, maybe I could have took a 1:26:44.439 --> 1:26:46.639 starting pitcher sooner, and maybe I shouldn't have taken Dovall 1:26:47.280 --> 1:26:49.719 like I did early on. But I like this team. 1:26:49.880 --> 1:26:51.800 I would roll out this team. 1:26:51.880 --> 1:26:55.360 I would all right, Welsh, Jonah him Gold, Schmidt, Turner, 1:26:55.760 --> 1:27:01.120 Oneo Cruz, Aeronado Chapman, a Dom's judge. And you've got 1:27:01.120 --> 1:27:06.760 Carter Riley, Green, McCormick, Otani, Kevin Gossman, Kirby, Dylan Cees, Fairbanks, Tanner, 1:27:06.800 --> 1:27:11.240 Scott You, Darbis, Brandon Fought, laclerk Bradley, Jared Kellna, Gavin Lux, 1:27:11.520 --> 1:27:13.960 Michael Walkett, and Josh Rojas. This is a good team, 1:27:14.000 --> 1:27:17.000 but I don't think it's better than mine. I disagree. 1:27:17.000 --> 1:27:18.160 I think I should have been ahead of you this 1:27:18.320 --> 1:27:19.760 with this time I'm here. 1:27:20.080 --> 1:27:22.360 You're wrong, and that's fine. You can be wrong. You 1:27:22.360 --> 1:27:26.439 can't be right about everything. I will just tell you 1:27:26.520 --> 1:27:29.559 that it's hard to sometimes put together a perfect team. 1:27:29.640 --> 1:27:31.680 But I did it here, and you guys should all 1:27:31.680 --> 1:27:34.440 feel lucky that you're in the presence of this greatness. 1:27:34.680 --> 1:27:40.839 I was projected top four in seven categories, runs, Homer's 1:27:40.840 --> 1:27:45.519 and RBI and then saves, k Era and whip. That's 1:27:45.560 --> 1:27:46.720 how you do it, boys. 1:27:46.760 --> 1:27:48.519 Yeah, I was behind in strikeouts. That's kind of what 1:27:48.600 --> 1:27:51.280 hurt me. But again, I think this is more of 1:27:51.320 --> 1:27:53.840 a team to finishes strong when everybody's on the right path. 1:27:53.920 --> 1:28:01.120 Logan O'happy, Nolan Jones, Ozzy Alby's, Gunner Henderson, Michael Garcia, Hoskins, Volpi, Tuckers, Zuoki, Springer, 1:28:01.200 --> 1:28:06.519 Jad Martinez, varshow Then Glass, Now class Steel, Munos, Chris Sale, 1:28:06.600 --> 1:28:13.760 verland Er, Javier Dwardo, Rodriguez, Devin Williams, Camanaro, Surezer, Merrill, Schemes, Welsh. 1:28:13.800 --> 1:28:14.920 What do you think of this roster? 1:28:15.040 --> 1:28:17.439 Honestly, it's not as good as mine, But it is 1:28:17.479 --> 1:28:21.120 a very good roster joke. It's a great roster that the. 1:28:21.120 --> 1:28:24.760 Roster that picks up steam in July fourth, just short else. 1:28:24.960 --> 1:28:27.360 But it's good, it's good, it's it's almost good enough 1:28:27.360 --> 1:28:27.840 to be mine. 1:28:27.840 --> 1:28:30.519 But July fourth and on, I think this roster would go. 1:28:30.600 --> 1:28:31.680 We want to hear from you, though, Who do you 1:28:31.680 --> 1:28:35.160 think won the draft?
