Speaker 1: because today, Welsh everything is going to be dominated by

10
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 1: Connor Griffin conversation. You found a great tweet from Major

11
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,840
Speaker 1: League Baseball dot com The last time orsh I say.

12
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 1: When Connor Griffin was born April twenty fourth, two thousand

13
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 1: and six, the lineup for the Pittsburgh Pirates was as follows.

14
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 1: Nate mcclouth boy had some shares of him back in

15
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,200
Speaker 1: the day, Jack Wilson, whose kid plays for the Athletics now,

16
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: Jason Bay, Craig Wilson, Jeremy Burnett's Joe Randa, Freddie Sanchez,

17
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: Umberto Coota, and Oliver Perez, who frustrated the hell out

18
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 1: of me in fantasy for many, many years. Welsh. That's

19
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:04,679
Speaker 1: a little bit of a where are they now?

20
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 2: Line up?

21
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: Right there?

22
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 2: The Jason Bay and Freddy Sanchez hit hard because like

23
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:12,039
Speaker 2: in my brain there's still kind of the like up

24
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 2: and coming, exciting guys, and they've been done for so long,

25
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Like I loved I thought

26
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 2: Jason Bay was gonna be legit and Freddy Sanchez was

27
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 2: just one of those just like lovable guys. Everybody you

28
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 2: just wanted him on your team. So you see that

29
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: lineup and you're like, wait a minute, how old he

30
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 2: was born? It doesn't it doesn't even make sense to me,

31
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 2: But you know he'son nineteen year old kid making a

32
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,399
Speaker 2: major league debut. That's what happens. You get, you get

33
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 2: sad with the players that were there when he was born,

34
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 2: the players that you know were in the How many

35
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 2: players was justin Verlander in the majors when Connor Griffin

36
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 2: was born? There's a you know, I think they did

37
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 2: a Kevin McGonagall one. I think Verlander might have been

38
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 2: pitching while.

39
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: Verlander was definite pitching in No. Six, wasn't he Yeah?

40
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: I think it had to be. He's four thousand years old.

41
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna get to all of that. And

42
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: by the way, Van Rod, I hope you're watching today

43
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: because I am wearing my I'm a Paul Hammond guy

44
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: shirt on the show today, So rocking that as requested

45
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 1: because I played the heel yesterday. But let's get after it.

46
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Connor Griffin, and let's talk about the

47
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 1: debut for the nineteen year old prodigy. He slashed three

48
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: thirty three, four, fifteen, five, twenty seven with twenty one

49
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: homer sixty five steals. I don't think people talk about

50
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: the stone base potential enough in one hundred and twenty

51
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: two games last season. That was his professional debut. He's

52
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 1: the first teenage position player in Major League Baseball since

53
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. Won Soto w And someone did point out

54
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: yesterday in the comments in my discussion of Connor Griffin

55
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: and the guys who are nineteen years old who came

56
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: up and some of the ones that struggled that Wan

57
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: Soto did not. You're right, Wan Soto did not. Won

58
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: Soto also has the greatest command of the strike zone

59
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: of any player basically since Ted Williams, So he's kind

60
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: of a once in a generational kind of guy. But

61
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 1: also in this grouping here the teenage players from the

62
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: first seven games nineteen ninety nine, Adrian Beltray was the

63
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: young guests position player since then, and then Andrew Jones

64
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: as well nineteen ninety seven. So another couple guys. It

65
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: is funny wash when you talk about Harper Trout, some

66
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: of the names we mentioned, it's Hall of famers, and

67
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 1: I think that's the expectation. What Connor Griffin can bring

68
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: to the Pittsburgh Pirates nine years, one hundred and forty

69
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: million dollars according to Buster only is the extension so

70
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: smart here by the Pirates. And as you said yesterday,

71
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: now he is going to be here the rest of

72
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: the season because you're gonna want to keep the draft picks.

73
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: You're gonna want to keep everything you got going on

74
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: here and continue to build through youth. And the last

75
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 1: couple of years has been very good for the Pirates

76
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: in terms of scouting.

77
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, they change it around. This is how

78
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: you have to do it when you I mean, maybe

79
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 2: the CBA is gonna change some of this if they

80
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 2: can actually get a cap going whatever, But when you're

81
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 2: a low market team, that doesn't have money or doesn't

82
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 2: want to spend your money. How do you compete. You've

83
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: got to have homegrown talent. And this is the first year,

84
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 2: like ever the Pirates we disappeared. The Pirates are you know,

85
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 2: spent money in free agency and wanted to start going.

86
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 2: So it's like you're gonna have to start, you know,

87
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 2: rolling that out here, and you know it's the start

88
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 2: of something really interesting with Connor Griffin. Do you want

89
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 2: to talk about I don't want to jump over anything

90
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 2: you want to hit. I'm super fascinated in the debut though,

91
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 2: Joey and like what this season looks like because they

92
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 2: locked up that extension. I'm guessing they manipulated it properly,

93
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 2: by the way, because they screwed up with skeins that

94
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 2: he'll play today, he'll ink it probably tomorrow or Monday,

95
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 2: so then he gets the PPI and stuff like that.

96
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 2: But have you looked because not a lot of projection system.

97
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 1: Nobody's really that's actually what I've got right now?

98
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 2: Oh okay, cool because the projections like we love ATC

99
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 2: and ATC it looks like they may have actually.

100
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: Just have and that's exact play. This is why we're SYMPATICO.

101
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: This is exactly where I wanted to start. So are

102
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 1: almost have updated because it's got one hundred and thirty

103
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: four games on there right. Some other projection system have

104
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 1: one fifteen or sixteen. I think when thirty four is

105
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 1: exactly what we're talking is gonna have some days off.

106
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: You know, we'll figure that out. So let's play a

107
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,479
Speaker 1: little over under. He's got fifteen home runs here for

108
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: Connor Griffin. You want to go over or under that,

109
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: I'm going to go over. I agree, I will go over.

110
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: I think he can get to twenty run scored seventy seven.

111
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: You want to go over or under that, I'm going

112
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: to go over. I'm gonna go under as long as

113
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: he stays hitting seventh, which is where he is right now,

114
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: because I think that's going to be tricky. The next

115
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: one here is RBI for sixty six. You want to

116
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: go over or under?

117
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 2: I think it's a really good number. I'm gonna say.

118
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 1: Screw it over, I'm gonna go over to. I think

119
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: he can get to the seventy range. I really do.

120
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: Especially again, if he's sitting lower in the lineup, I

121
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: think the guy's saying behind him I don't have a

122
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 1: lot of faith in especially if that lineup cycles over

123
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: and he's hitting there. You know, oh no, cruz up

124
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: and down. Very streaky player to turn that lineup over

125
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 1: at the top, and then the last one's stolen bases

126
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: at twenty six, you want to go over under that.

127
00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 2: So this is this is really close because what I

128
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 2: was actually going to bring up was OOPSI the Oopsie

129
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 2: projection Jordan Rosenbolm's projection system, and they're massively different than ATC.

130
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,159
Speaker 2: They're at thirty five stolen bases. It's part of me

131
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 2: that wonders if the stolen bases are gonna come down

132
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 2: at the major league level. I suppose I could go

133
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:17,600
Speaker 2: up if you're hitting the lower in the lineup and

134
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 2: they give him the green light. So I want to

135
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 2: say under thirty five, but over twenty six. So I mean,

136
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 2: I'm putting him at a little over of a fifteen

137
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 2: to thirty. Guy, give me your answer, and then I've

138
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 2: gotta throw something at you.

139
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: I'm going over the ATC projection of the twenty six,

140
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,160
Speaker 1: but I'm under the thirty five. I think it's somewhere

141
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: around oh thirty, because I think the stolen bases, are,

142
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: you know, a real part of his game. People don't

143
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: talk enough about go ahead?

144
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 2: Yes, So, how in God's green Earth can you come

145
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 2: on this show yesterday and be the negative Nancy you

146
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 2: were about, Oh it's too early and this and that

147
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 2: and the other when you just had him demolish projections

148
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 2: on ATC, which the ATC projection your assisially put him

149
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 2: at a fifty thirty guy, How can you be negative Nancy

150
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: on him?

151
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: That's fair?

152
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:05,919
Speaker 2: How did you change a tune?

153
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: That's fair? Because I think it also comes with a

154
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,559
Speaker 1: two forty five patting average. I also think it comes

155
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: with the under that it's projected. Yes, I'm underneath the projected.

156
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 1: I think there's going to be struggles in there, and

157
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 1: I guess this is also the head to head player

158
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: in me too, where sometimes those struggles can really hurt

159
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: you for weeks or months at a time. I do

160
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: think it's season long, Rodo. He has more value, and

161
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: that's a conversation in the duality of it. We did

162
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: not touch on yesterday, but this is good because we're

163
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: touching on it today. Season long, Rodo, I'm in on.

164
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: I think in any head to head categories, headache categories

165
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 1: because of the speedy offers. Still, like Connor Griffin head

166
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: to head points, I think it's trickier because I think

167
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 1: there will be some strikeouts in there. I think the

168
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: batting average will be low, some of the streaks will

169
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: kill you from time to time. But I said it

170
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: yesterday in the show with the kid has MVP potential,

171
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: I very much think Leo Devrees is the next prospect

172
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: too that's really going to stash him now, folks, the

173
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: guy just lit up spring training. He looked like he

174
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: had He looked to me like the nineteen year old

175
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: that was ready to play Major League Baseball day one.

176
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: Connor Griffin, to me, I think still needed a little

177
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: bit of work from what I saw. Now, I could

178
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,559
Speaker 1: be totally wrong. He's got a tough matchup tonight against

179
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: Bradish the rest of the weekend, I think he gets

180
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: Shane bos and he gets Chris Bassett, so things might

181
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: get a little easier. But look, those are two guys

182
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: that have been around, especially Bassett, have been around a

183
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: long time. So I think it's gonna be a great

184
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: atmosphere today in Pittsburgh. And speaking of that atmosphere, South,

185
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: can we throw that graphic up one more time, because

186
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: I think the Pittsburgh Pirate fans are starting to get

187
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 1: very excited about what we've got here, potentially because you've

188
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: got Connor Griffin now locked up for a long period

189
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:40,680
Speaker 1: of time. He got skeens for at least a little

190
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: while longer. They missed that window to sign him to

191
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: a big, long term contract, Baba Chandler. Hopefully we can

192
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 1: get something out of him. But you talk about you know,

193
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 1: Braxton Ashcroft and some other prospects at Rodriguez. I've gotten this.

194
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: They got a ton of guys coming up and some

195
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: real good young talent. Should we start taking the Pittsburgh

196
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 1: Pirates off of the Oh my god, they're the Pittsburgh

197
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: Pirates haha, They're they're the joke of baseball because it

198
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: feels like in the past we've done that because they

199
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: never got those players back, for the Garrett Cole trade,

200
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 1: for the Tyler Glass. Now, all those trades when they

201
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: traded the premium guys, they never got the right guys back,

202
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: and then they failed drafting. Now they've succeeded in drafting

203
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: if they can cash in on Paul Skins and get

204
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: the right talent because the evaluation process is better for them.

205
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, the Pirates can be in a

206
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 1: really good place in two to three years.

207
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, I'd argue that they're drafting hasn't necessarily

208
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 2: been bad.

209
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 1: They have for quite the last couple of years has

210
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: been better.

211
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 2: But I've been saying years and years because no, you're

212
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 2: because you're talking about I think a really critical point

213
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 2: here is that what has been the problem. It actually

214
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 2: hasn't been drafting of the talent. It's that they don't

215
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 2: sign anybody and keep anybody. Everything you said is they

216
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 2: had to trade this guy and trade that guy. Yeah,

217
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: because they won't keep them, and they signed them and

218
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 2: they got but.

219
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 1: They never get that back. That's the thing. Like the

220
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 1: guys they get back, you know, you can't get trade

221
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 1: or you know, Yeah, said Joe mull a big in

222
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: the Garrett Cole trade, and then they ended up trading

223
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 1: Joe Musker of two years later.

224
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 2: I mean, well, I think that's something different. You can

225
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 2: argue that the department that scouts the rest of the league,

226
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 2: their internal MLB scouting department, has stunk in what they've

227
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 2: tried to go for. But the drafting of they had

228
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 2: Garrett Cole. They had Tyler Glass now, you know, I

229
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 2: mean they had some of that going. They would just

230
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 2: never spend the money. So they became like a raised

231
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 2: team where it was like, well, you know they're I

232
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 2: mean maybe not with Junior caman Are now, but they're

233
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 2: gonna get a guy and they're gonna sell them in

234
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 2: four or five years and they're gonna just move on.

235
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 2: I mean, they've got another kid, Edward Florentino, Baby Billy

236
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 2: mentioned he's also a potential top ten like I mean,

237
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 2: especially in the fantasy world, but he's got top ten

238
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 2: prospect upside. He's this big giant six foot five, gonna

239
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 2: play the outfield. Just another big, crazy freak athlete that

240
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,680
Speaker 2: can run and hit. They've got, you know, I'm not

241
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 2: sure like the password and Tamar Johnson on Jordan Moore's

242
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 2: tweet would be what I would put out there. But

243
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 2: Ashcraft is interesting. Hunter Barco can go in the rotation.

244
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,959
Speaker 2: They've got some good pieces, but they're signing them. Sign

245
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 2: Paul Skin stop Jim Bowden from letting you know us

246
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,559
Speaker 2: imagine Paul Skins being traded to the Yankees in these

247
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 2: trade scenarios. Sign him, and that makes it different and

248
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 2: that makes it something scary because the only other thing

249
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 2: is that the Pirates have made some concerted changes more

250
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 2: to your point in their developmental system, Like they have

251
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 2: made some more hardcore analytic based stuff, and they they've

252
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 2: actually talked to some people in the industry that we

253
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 2: work in to kind of, you know, try to go

254
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 2: down that path. So I think they're in a really

255
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 2: good spot. They're developing some really good talent and kind

256
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 2: of Griffin is obviously like it's not just one player,

257
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 2: like they lucked into the spot of getting him. They've

258
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 2: done it in a lot of good spots, but they're

259
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 2: doing it the right way. They're signing him. He's the

260
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 2: core piece now. So yeah, they are someone that Thank god,

261
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:46,960
Speaker 2: I love parody in baseball. I don't want the Pirates

262
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 2: to be some stinky organization for thirty years. Bagman and

263
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 2: I used to joke back when we were, you know,

264
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 2: in our teens, when we would play like MLB the

265
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 2: Show or I'm trying to remember it was gay whatever

266
00:11:58,760 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 2: the GA.

267
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: Nate McLay was a Pirate.

268
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, way before that even, and we would joke about

269
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 2: like if we owned the Pirates because they were a

270
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,319
Speaker 2: joke such back then, and we would like play them

271
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 2: in franchise mode and try to make them better, Like,

272
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 2: thank god, we don't. Let's not have to envision like that.

273
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 2: It's a great city, you know, it's cool logo, like

274
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 2: everything is good for him.

275
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: You know what's fun. I found the statistical atc comp

276
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 1: between strikeout rate, stolen bases, power runs RBI. You want

277
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: to hear who the statistical comp is the guy closest

278
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: to Connor Griffin?

279
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:31,719
Speaker 2: Sure, I was trying to guess, but I can't. I'm

280
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 2: not sure I could.

281
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: I'll give you a hint. The calls coming from inside

282
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: the house Oneal Cruise, which again, see there's your face

283
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: with Oneal Cruz, right, it sounds wild. Must be looking

284
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: at the same thing I am, because I found it

285
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: on there.

286
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 2: Well, okay, basically, what have we said that sounds like

287
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 2: Oneal Cruise. ONEO Cruz is a two hundred hitter who

288
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 2: plays the worst defense on the.

289
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 1: I'll tell you. I'll tell you. Twenty two homers, seventy

290
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: one scored, sixty five RBI, twenty eight stolen bases. I mean,

291
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 1: that's right in the same range, and nine percent strikeout

292
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,079
Speaker 1: rate versus twenty seven percent strike out. I mean, he's

293
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: real close Welsh. I'm just saying, like it's.

294
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 2: Cruz has a forty percent strikeout rate right now. I

295
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 2: think he is hitting lefties soon his credit. That might

296
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 2: be something that I might be wrong about, but I

297
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 2: don't know there if they are within I don't know, man,

298
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 2: I don't even know how to calculate that, because if

299
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 2: you just look accounting stats, it's weird batting average, like

300
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 2: they're just not in the same even realm of players.

301
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: So I know they're not in this well. I mean,

302
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,679
Speaker 1: here's the thing. If if O'Neill Cruz hits you know,

303
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 1: two thirty five this year and Conor Griffin it's two

304
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: fifty or you know, okay he's slightly better or to forty,

305
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 1: I will the the upside version of this guy who's

306
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 1: statistical comp two from what we were talking about, who's

307
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: kind of close, a little lighter on the stolen bases.

308
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 1: Is Jared Duran also nice player, right.

309
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 2: And would be a boon based on where you've got

310
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 2: Connor Griffin my argument to yesterday, like Conor Griffin was

311
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,319
Speaker 2: taken in the two hundreds, and if you get a

312
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 2: Jared Duran at shortstop like that's a whole nother, whole

313
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 2: nother ballgame.

314
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, I mean, I just don't think everybody should think.

315
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 2: Actually kind of see j Abrams is like bog Me

316
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 2: and I were talking about this, and I think that's close.

317
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 2: It kind of became like the it's not the ceiling

318
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 2: of Connor Griffin, but it's like above the median average

319
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 2: could end up looking like a cee j Abrams. There's

320
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 2: there's wild expectations and that, and then I would definitely

321
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 2: hold back for everybody positive for me, negative for Joe,

322
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 2: or advice however you.

323
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: Want to negative, negative, just perspective.

324
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not today, You're a lot more positive

325
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 2: negative was yesterday. But no victory lapping because it's going

326
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 2: to take a little while.

327
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: No, and no victory lapping even wa if he struggles

328
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 1: against the orders this last weekend, I'm not going to

329
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 1: victory lap it. And if he hits three home runs,

330
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 1: I don't think Welsh is getting victory lap. But it's

331
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: a long season and I just think the nineteen year

332
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: old players, I guess I would have liked to have

333
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 1: seen him spend a month in Triple A and just

334
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 1: really just kind of rake there and just get that

335
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: confidence levels through the roof. I just think it would

336
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: have been better served is a lot of attention. I

337
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: think this is gonna be really much different than just

338
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: regular opening day Connor Griffin there, you know, he would

339
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: still get the buzz the first home game, you know,

340
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: which you've got today to seth Wilcock's going to be

341
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: there to our colleague. But it's just funny to me

342
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 1: because one of the guys that wonkey in the featured

343
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: pros wanted to drop right away in shallow leagues was

344
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 1: Ondio Cruz and yet at the same time, statistically compwise,

345
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: for projections, at least, he's in the same neighborhood of

346
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: Connor Griffin's stats, which I think for a nineteen year

347
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 1: old kid is freaking awesome.

348
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, he's awesome to be taking in that range.

349
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 2: You're talking projected stats. He's not in this. They're not

350
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 2: in the same world, like we've got to see it, and.

351
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 1: They were in the same world of talent, but in

352
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: the projected stat world, it's just a fact that they are. Now.

353
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: You and I often look at projections and say, well,

354
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: you take them with a great AsSalt and you do,

355
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: but it is something that is I think worth the

356
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: look and the conversation there. Shout out to edge Wolves

357
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: are just subbed with Prime. Appreciate you. And by the way, yes,

358
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: Verlander made his debut Sally's on It, Sally's filling in

359
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: for self d today two thousand and five debut for Verlanders.

360
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: So Verlander was in the major leagues before Connor Griffin

361
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 1: was born. So that's a fun fact right there. Also

362
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 1: fun fact. We're always on our twitch twitch dot tv

00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: just followed us as well as Jimmy Moods or jim

370
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: My Ouds. I don't know how you pronounced that. That's

371
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: my favorite thing is mispronouncing people's names on here. Let's

372
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: talk about some of the limited baseball we did get

373
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: last night. Robbie Ray got his first victory of the season,

374
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 1: the Mets were limited just two runs, three hits or

375
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: five and a third. Jordan Lawler launched his first bomb

376
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: of the year against the Bravos. That game did not

377
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 1: go very well for me.

378
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 2: He bliterated the Diamondbacks. They obliterated them. Bad defense. Ryan

379
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 2: Nelson got his start taking away from him and it

380
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 2: ended with James McCann the catcher, dropping I think five runs.

381
00:16:58,160 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 2: That does a bad game.

382
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 1: Well and they're in the downs later. But like I

383
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 1: don't want to mccannon, was the bullpen dig up more

384
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 1: than five more runs? Besides McCann, do just putting that

385
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: out there.

386
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 2: Joe Ross gave up another couple of runs. Joe just

387
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 2: want to point out, since we saw him hate arn Rah,

388
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,919
Speaker 2: he should be cut today. It is the Diamondbacks worst

389
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 2: bullpen in baseball and it is not even remotely close

390
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 2: it is. It is pretty embarrassing, but very encouraging for

391
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,880
Speaker 2: Jordan Lawler. Jordan Lawler's gonna get that outfield eligibility here

392
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 2: in the near future. He continues to hit, he is

393
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 2: definitely a solid pickup if he's still floating out there.

394
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,239
Speaker 2: And you know, I was talking with someone before this

395
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 2: with just kind of some of the you had, you know,

396
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 2: a little bit of poor defense yesterday, Carlos Santana, Nolan

397
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 2: Aeronauto cannot hit.

398
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 3: You.

399
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 2: Gotta wonder is there gonna be a moment where the

400
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 2: Diamondbacks consider dfang Santana put Aeronauto over at first to

401
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 2: get that defense and keep rocking with him in that

402
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 2: good salary Lawler at third, get him back there.

403
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 1: Could you imagine after all that part and then.

404
00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,919
Speaker 2: Wald Schmidt and we can get another great rookie backup.

405
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,640
Speaker 2: I'll just make a get back in the outfield. Really

406
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,439
Speaker 2: would love to see that there in the near future.

407
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 2: But Lawler is looking pretty solid and he's still floating

408
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 2: out there. You should pick him up.

409
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,360
Speaker 1: I got a ton of shares of him this year,

410
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 1: and he was my post type sleeper guy the year.

411
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,159
Speaker 1: I'm very excited about his start. Ryan Nelson. After that

412
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 1: start of his does he go to the bullpen now

413
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 1: when you got Merle coming back? Or no?

414
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. I mean it isably have been.

415
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 1: So good at home it splits last year we're like, oh,

416
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:24,680
Speaker 1: don't start him on the road.

417
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 2: Well yeah, but also he had three of those runs

418
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 2: ended up being because of Ginkol coming in. He stinks.

419
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 2: I think it's Brandon Fought. But the problem with Brandon

420
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 2: Fott is I don't think he has like a classical,

421
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,400
Speaker 2: like good relief type of a repertoire. So I think

422
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 2: it is really weird. I'm not sure what they're gonna do.

423
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 2: I just don't see it being Ryan Nelson. To me,

424
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 2: it's clearly Brandon Fott. We'll find out soon. Merril Kelly

425
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 2: is pitching. I believe rehab start tonight, and then that

426
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 2: would line him up for next week to be able

427
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 2: to start. So we're probably gonna know in like five days.

428
00:18:58,480 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: Razor brought up a good point if you're looking for

429
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 1: a reamber this weekend. Boyle Joe Boyle out there too.

430
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: He was good in his first start. Let's see if

431
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: you can make that second one. He might be on

432
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: borrowed time too, with Pepio returning at some point. But

433
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 1: I like where your head's at there, Yeah, Joe Ross,

434
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 1: just he's gonna be on a bus somewhere pretty soon.

435
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 2: I can tell you I forgot about this too. Lawler

436
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 2: did get Lolla got banged on the hand last night.

437
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 1: He did.

438
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,880
Speaker 2: I think they said it wasn't it was no big deal,

439
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,520
Speaker 2: but obviously if it were to be, that would probably

440
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 2: be something that Ryan Walschmidt would get a look. I mean,

441
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 2: there's a chance they don't, but why not. Ryan Waldschmi's

442
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:32,160
Speaker 2: been off to a hot start.

443
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: So Cole Reagan's pitched well yesterday, much better than his

444
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 1: first outing, but unfortunately did not get a w against

445
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,439
Speaker 1: the Twins. He was out pitched by Taj Bradley, if

446
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: you could believe it. But Reagan's generated sixteen whiffs a

447
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 1: thirty nine percent CSW yesterday, gave up just four hits,

448
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 1: struck out eight guys. There's good outing for Cole Reagan's

449
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,680
Speaker 1: but unfortunately just no run support for him yesterday, which

450
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 1: was a little frustrating.

451
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 2: You want to hear a stat The five hardest thrown

452
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 2: pitches in that game all came from Taj Bradley, who

453
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 2: is hopping out again at one hundred. Taj Bradley, He's

454
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,199
Speaker 2: like a different dude right now. It's crazy, you know,

455
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,719
Speaker 2: seeing this fastball up where it is right now, the

456
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 2: cutter forty two rate in that start. His cutter's looking good.

457
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 2: He's got this splitter going. Pay attention Toaj might be

458
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 2: a streamer. It's a rough team, but it's it's it's

459
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,439
Speaker 2: a it's completely different stuff from the Taj Bradley we

460
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,719
Speaker 2: saw the Rays. He looks rejuvenated and he's just pumping

461
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 2: big vlo.

462
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 1: Do you recall when that trade happened, the conversation we

463
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 1: had last year, No I do, which was I am

464
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 1: so happy that TODs Bradley's getting a chance to go

465
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 1: somewhere else because I think he's one of these guys

466
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: and I want to say, you agreed at the time

467
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 1: that just get Toaj Bradley out of Tampa and get

468
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: him a fresh start somewhere else with maybe some new

469
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: people in his ear. He was a guy that got

470
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: rushed to the big leagues and then it just seemed

471
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: like confidence was shaken. Just get him a fresh start,

472
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,360
Speaker 1: a new look, some new voices in there, and my goodness,

473
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 1: so far at least it looks like the right thing.

474
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 1: So I'm very encouraged because we all know Tosh Bradley

475
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: has talent. It's not a matter of velocity, it's not

476
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: a matter I mean, in the minor leagues he had

477
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 1: some great seasons, So it was just a matter of

478
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 1: Kenny finally translate and the pitch mix and you know,

479
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: be consistent and healthy at the same time and just

480
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 1: be left alone. He's gonna be left alone that rotation

481
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 1: because they don't have any other answers. So I'm with Welsh, Welsh.

482
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,439
Speaker 1: What do you think his roster percentage is? Tod Bradley,

483
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 1: if you had to guess right.

484
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 2: Now on what what are you looking at? You?

485
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 1: I always look at CBA because CBS is where people.

486
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 2: Well, but yeah, I actually don't think you should look

487
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 2: at CBS because the numbers are absolutely absurd. It's going

488
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 2: to be seventy five percent.

489
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 1: You're not even close. You're not even close.

490
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 2: I mean, it's still going to probably be fifty, but

491
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 2: you tell me.

492
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,439
Speaker 1: Below fifty, it's forty seven, which means he's definitely on

493
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 1: Yahoo in the twenties or thirties.

494
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,640
Speaker 2: On twenty thirty.

495
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, TODs Bradley right here, Yeah, there

496
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 1: you go, say CEC's on it all right, rookie Looking time.

497
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,920
Speaker 1: Justin Crawford's reach based all five times in all the

498
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 1: games he's played in, he's at four twelve. So what

499
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 1: are your thoughts on what you've seen out of Justin

500
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: Crawford so far? Certainly looks like a guy who's gonna

501
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 1: get on base, make things happen. Phil The statuet too

502
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: power is questionable, but the rest of the stuff is there,

503
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 1: at least in the early going for Crawford, which is

504
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: good because this was another guy who did not have

505
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 1: the best spring. But the Phillies, to their credit, stuck

506
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: it out with him and said, Nope, that's our guy.

507
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 1: We're going forward with him.

508
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think the only shock I have is that

509
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 2: he hasn't stolen any bases. That's it, because I think

510
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 2: I've mentioned him as kind of like a low key

511
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,679
Speaker 2: Chandler Simpson type with a little bit more power in

512
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 2: that he can hit for average. He's going to steal

513
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:39,880
Speaker 2: a ton of bases. He did that in the minors,

514
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 2: and he just hasn't done that yet. But he's hitting

515
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 2: over four hundred, which is ridiculous. I guess they just

516
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 2: have not I don't know why they haven't given Maybe

517
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,119
Speaker 2: it's just not a green light type of thing, but

518
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 2: they have not given him an opportunity when I'm looking

519
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 2: here and it looks like, I mean, how many hits

520
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 2: does he have total? All but two have been singles,

521
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 2: so there's been stolen base opportunity. So I want to

522
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 2: see what that looks like. But it gets me encouraged.

523
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:08,440
Speaker 2: Today Kevin mcgonagh is leading off for the Tigers. That's

524
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 2: something when you see these rookies doing that. This is

525
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 2: something that Justin Crawford can be. I mean, the lineup

526
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 2: is gonna make it really tough for them to get there.

527
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 2: And to be honest with you, a lot of NL

528
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 2: teams and a lot of teams in general love to

529
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,360
Speaker 2: run that like leadoff hitter at nine type of things.

530
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,439
Speaker 2: So he probably will be there. But this is the

531
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,199
Speaker 2: type of stuff that you can put in the leadoff

532
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 2: spot because dudes getting on base. So this is really great.

533
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 2: There's definitely a devoid of power. There's gonna be a

534
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 2: devoid of RBI. It's just like Chandler Simpson all over it.

535
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 2: Just really hope the stolen bases come up. And I

536
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 2: would anticipate trying to buy in on him if he's

537
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 2: floating out there. If people are like, well this is stupid,

538
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 2: this is one category I would be buying that right

539
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 2: now because the stolen bases are gonna come.

540
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 1: I will say this to you if for watching McGonagall

541
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: in person with you on Monday too. I just loved him.

542
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 1: I just his approach at the plate is good. He

543
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: takes good at bats, He hits freaking pe rods all

544
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 1: over the places. Line drive machine is my kind of

545
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: hitter man. And that's the thing. It's like, I feel

546
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 1: like those line drive hitters, those young kids, like the Weatherholds,

547
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: like the mcgonagalls, those are guys that are always prone

548
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 1: to have massive success, I think right away, more than

549
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 1: some of the slugging guys sometimes, and we've seen and

550
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 1: sometimes you get the combination of those guys like Juan

551
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 1: Soto is both right, Andrew Jones was not both early

552
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: in his career. Bryce Harper again, I always feel like

553
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 1: Bryce Harper was that generational, you know, talent, so advanced.

554
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's ever been besides Sodo, a

555
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,920
Speaker 1: more advanced hitter at his age than Bryce Harper. Would

556
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 1: you agree with that? I mean, the guy was playing

557
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: Juco when he was like ten years old.

558
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 2: You're saying now, just like overall, not just like coming

559
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 2: to the miners.

560
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 1: Well, when I think of when I think of like

561
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: the the great baseball prodigies of the last generation.

562
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 2: Oh, I see how you're saying it, Yeah, Harper and Esque.

563
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, Harper, I think is that is that closest to that?

564
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,479
Speaker 1: And it makes me wonder at this point in his

565
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 1: career too, you know, he's taken some heat. He hasn't

566
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: been quite the same player the last two seasons. Still

567
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: very good, but not I think in that elite tier

568
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,879
Speaker 1: necessarily not to you know, deal from his general manager,

569
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 1: but you have to wonder like his body just had

570
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 1: the toll taking on it because he was playing so

571
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,400
Speaker 1: much at such a high level for so long as

572
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: opposed to that's probably he's such an oddity compared to

573
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,399
Speaker 1: other people, and pds aren't in the game anymore to

574
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: keep those guys in the thirties at that same level.

575
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe, I mean what did he go through? I mean,

576
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 2: you see some George Springer just had a phenomenal season

577
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 2: and we've seen guys carry it over into like older ages.

578
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 2: I'm not really sure what it is. I mean, he's

579
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 2: he's definitely been in spotlight for a long time. He

580
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 2: was a you know, cover boy, big cover boy, probably

581
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 2: one of the biggest touted stars in god knows how long.

582
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 2: It's bigger than Connor Griff For people that don't have

583
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 2: a reference too, Like you think the Connor Griffin stuff

584
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,880
Speaker 2: is fun. Here, it's got nothing on Bryce.

585
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 1: Or strasber It well, Steven Strausberg came up. I feel

586
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,399
Speaker 1: like the world stopped. That was wild and and he

587
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,199
Speaker 1: had national I want to say, wasn't he against the

588
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: pirates that first game too? Ironically too? I want to

589
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: say it was a part that I would not remember.

590
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 1: Here's a good question from Solar Flare. If Emmachen gets

591
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: blown up again today, which I don't expect against the

592
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,640
Speaker 1: Washington Nationals, to be honest, would you keep she hand

593
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: or would you drop him for Tosh Bradley. That's a

594
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 1: great question.

595
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, it's the question is good because it's

596
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,439
Speaker 2: like if he does get because if he doesn't, to

597
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 2: your point, we're not doing anything with it. I've been

598
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 2: a little bit worried because I've been I've been a

599
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: Shehn guy. For sure. The fastball has been down. I'd

600
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 2: love to see the villa up. He's down currently about

601
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 2: a mile and a half per hour on his fastball.

602
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 2: Everything is going a bit slower. Change well, I guess,

603
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 2: I mean change up. Throwing solar is actually not the

604
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 2: worst thing in the World Slider's got velo. If he

605
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 2: were to get blown up, I'm open to it, especially

606
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 2: in smaller leagues, because you just got to start burning

607
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 2: and churning sometimes, and I think that's where you know,

608
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 2: that would make sense. But I don't think he's going

609
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 2: to be I think he's gonna I think he's gonna

610
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 2: get back on track here. But you should find a

611
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,239
Speaker 2: way to pay attention to TODJ. Bradley. ToJ might be

612
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 2: more than he might not be anything more than a streamer,

613
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,720
Speaker 2: but there's definitely a possibility that he might have like

614
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 2: long term holdability for the season.

615
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 1: Thank you, Ceci. I do have a memory. It's somewhere

616
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 1: still in there. Don't ask me why I remember against

617
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 1: the parts, except for the fact it was electric, and

618
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 1: I want to say it was on ESPN or some

619
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 1: national platform too, and it was just like, oh my god,

620
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: you're watching it and he's throwing one hundred miles an

621
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,160
Speaker 1: hour and it was just this electric moment in sports

622
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 1: at that time, and you know you don't forget those. Also, rookie, lookie,

623
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 1: one more piece of throwout your Bryce Elders two before

624
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: with a double walk through run score. So hitting well

625
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,119
Speaker 1: is good for Bryce Eldrige to get a call up,

626
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,360
Speaker 1: hopefully sooner than later. But Giants didn't need any help

627
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,360
Speaker 1: last night beat around those Mets, that's for sure. Also

628
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 1: in that Met Game two, it's another start where there's

629
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 1: a lefty on the mound Carson Benees and in which

630
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 1: is not great Like he looks like a straight up

631
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: with tune player at least to start the year. So

632
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: in terms of his value on an everyday basis, it

633
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: definitely takes a hit there for sure.

634
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 2: Can I do Can I do a rookie lookie too?

635
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 1: Yeah?

636
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 2: Sure, okay, this is it's a two part rookie lookie.

637
00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:00,439
Speaker 2: First part is Carter Jensen and in a long and

638
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 2: the second part is can we get this video up?

639
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 2: This is going to be a future major leaguer who's

640
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 2: going to take all of his anger out on this

641
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 2: one singular moment by his parents, Daniel Su Sach's parents

642
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 2: and Dan I believe this is a little Sue Sack.

643
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 2: Do you have that, Soual?

644
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: I think we have it.

645
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,679
Speaker 2: This is the single five I have cried laughing at

646
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,439
Speaker 2: this video. This kid just flopping around. If you have

647
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,199
Speaker 2: not seen it, the su Sacks are they're jumping up

648
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 2: and down, and that kid just flying and flopping everywhere.

649
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,439
Speaker 2: People obviously have ridiculous jokes with it. That kid, we

650
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 2: are gonna look, I'm just telling you right now, Joe

651
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 2: and I are going to be sixty years old on

652
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,239
Speaker 2: this show, just holding on for real life, and that

653
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 2: kid is going to make his debut and he'll make

654
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 2: some big contract and we'll fight about should he have

655
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:46,959
Speaker 2: stayed down in Triple A longer? And then we'll pull

656
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 2: up this video, Alida. This is the problem right here

657
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 2: is he was flopping and going. It's my favorite video

658
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 2: of all time. Please keep that in the queue, and it's.

659
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: So memorable to can you throw it out one more time?

660
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: Because this is absolutely Joe will call him a nepo baby.

661
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 1: This is what it feels like to be a Mets

662
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 1: fan every September like this is This is pretty much.

663
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 2: This is Joe saying Connor Griffin not stay in Triple A.

664
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 1: I didn't want him to stay in Triple A forever.

665
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: I just thought, if you're gonna send him down, leave

666
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 1: him there a month, let him get his feet under him,

667
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: and let him then come up in May and be

668
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: ready to go.

669
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 2: We should literally just do a short form video ten

670
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 2: minutes of just that video going, and we're just making up.

671
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: Every time I start in Adyavaldi and he's and he's bad,

672
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: and I bet he's good. Like there's there's it's never ending. Also,

673
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 1: Michael's got a question here, which is a great one.

674
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 1: I love Fredd is gonna do more Q and A

675
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: with the audience here on the show. That's why you

676
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 1: show up live?

677
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 2: Uh?

678
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: Is Liam Hendrix for real? He's gotten off to a

679
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 1: great start qualify as a catcher. I mean there's a

680
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 1: lot of people in shallow one catcher leagues look at

681
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: Liam Hicks going should I be spending the fab on him?

682
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: What do you think?

683
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 2: Yeah? This is super interesting. I think he came up

684
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 2: and I think the live stream that Arico and I did,

685
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 2: we were both pretty dismissive, but then I did like

686
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 2: a deep dive. I am pretty interested in him because

687
00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 2: it's not just about a catcher. Because he's playing some

688
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 2: he's hitting four sixty seven, he's got three homers. What's

689
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 2: really interesting is he's added some bat speed and he's

690
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 2: changed the leg kick, so he's got a like a

691
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 2: much more aggressive leg kick, which is obviously letting him

692
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 2: get to the ball quicker. He's bareing up the ball,

693
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 2: he's kind of smashing it around. And on top of it,

694
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 2: this is a guy that doesn't chase, doesn't whift, doesn't

695
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 2: strike out. It's very I think somebody said maybe they

696
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 2: didn't even mean to they're bringing They said like sal Stewart,

697
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 2: and it's like it's kind of a Sal stewartness in there.

698
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's for real. I don't mean

699
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 2: it's going to continue. I'd hate to cut anything like

700
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 2: really solid for him, like what I want to cut

701
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 2: Carter Jensen at this point, even though he can't wake

702
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 2: up for his alarm, I don't think so.

703
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 1: But ambm Man gets him every time. Every time.

704
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 2: By the way, did you see there was this video?

705
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 2: This would have been great to have as well. The

706
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 2: Royal social team in spring training they always do these

707
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 2: goofy videos. They did one how many Alarms do you need?

708
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 2: And there's a video of them interviewings and he said

709
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 2: he's like, I need about six of them and apparently

710
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 2: you needed a little bit more. And ironically, by the way,

711
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 2: the Twins today put out a tweet set your alarm

712
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 2: for the Twins as good, and the social media person said, yeah,

713
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 2: there here it is. Don't forget to set your alarms.

714
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 2: The social media person for the Twins said this had

715
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 2: nothing to do with Cartridge.

716
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 1: Blow it out your ass, of course, crap, blow it

717
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 1: out your ass, non and it's own it, like the

718
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 1: Wendy's account owns it, just own the troll. It's hilarious.

719
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 2: It is hilarious. But yes, Liam Mix is somebody that

720
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 2: if I'm in deeper leagues, I'm picking up. I don't

721
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 2: know what the level I would want to drop right now,

722
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,479
Speaker 2: but if it is for real, they might keep them

723
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 2: in the middle of that lineup. And the Marlins have

724
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 2: done a really good job of finding these guys that

725
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,880
Speaker 2: know how to barrel and getting them to pull the

726
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 2: ball in the air more. And that's kind of what's

727
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 2: happening here. So maybe there's twenty homer and power out

728
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 2: of it. I just I proceed with caution, but it's very,

729
00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,160
Speaker 2: very good first week.

730
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: All right, We're gonna get to one more question because

731
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: I think it's a good one and it's related to

732
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: a theme of the show. But also, don't forget when

745
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 1: days left before we're giving away not one, not two,

746
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 1: but three of these bad boys. That's pretty amazing, by

747
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: the way, I can't believe we're doing that. Let's get

748
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: to one more question then we're gonna get some other

749
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 1: stuff here. Mctunda has got a good one. Tos Bradley

750
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 1: or Ryan Nelson rest of season. I gotta say from

751
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 1: the outset, I think it's Taj Bradley for me.

752
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 2: I'm cool with Taj Bradley. I mean maybe a little

753
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 2: Homer and still go Ryan Nelson. It's kin the Twins

754
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 2: are just like a really bad team. But yeah, Razor

755
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 2: might actually have the better answer to it. They both

756
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 2: they're both kind of streamy. They're in the world of streaming.

757
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 2: So when you have pictures that are in the world

758
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 2: of streaming, you could just play the hot hand in

759
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 2: TAJ is the hot hand right now. But I think

760
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 2: Ryan Nelson has a little bit more sustainability. But you know,

761
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 2: this might just we just might be looking at the

762
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 2: first couple steps of a major breakout for TAJ. I'm

763
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 2: just it's hard to just hard to completely buy into all.

764
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: Right. Fun facts, Drake Baldwin has scored in all seven

765
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 1: games of the Braves to start the season. That has

766
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:38,240
Speaker 1: not been done since nineteen fifty seven Henry Aaron last

767
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: guy to do that for the Braves. Also fun fact,

768
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: guess what today? It's our producer Sal's birthday. Happy birthday, Sal,

769
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: and wish him a happy birthday. In the chat, salas

770
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: filling in for Seth today and Sal, I decided to

771
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 1: get you something which is the newest thing at the

772
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 1: Texas Rangers ball Park, which is magnificent. Is the Nacho sombrero.

773
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: How I eat everything in a bucket When I was

774
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: in Arizona. But look at this, bad boy. Now this

775
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 1: I would wear. I would eat it. Oh and horns, dude,

776
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 1: I love this.

777
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:13,759
Speaker 2: That looks really good.

778
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: Well, sh are you eating this? I'm eating this.

779
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 2: I'm definitely definitely yeah, I'm definitely eating this too because

780
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 2: because also this also looks like it's like a taco bowl,

781
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 2: you know, like it's chin that's all around it too.

782
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 2: That looks so much better than your disgusting bucket of

783
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 2: nachos or the the whatever we had at the Diamondbacks.

784
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 2: This is what this is, what this is about. This

785
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 2: should have been a Diamondback thing. Here's how you do it, Tinnity.

786
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 1: What you do is you get your best friend to

787
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 1: sit in the seat in front of you, and you

788
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:46,680
Speaker 1: put it on their head and you eat out of

789
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:48,799
Speaker 1: it while you're watching the game. That is that's that's

790
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 1: winning in life.

791
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 2: The only negative you're right when you actually want to,

792
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:55,359
Speaker 2: like applicably eat this and put this in your lap,

793
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 2: you just have a giant sombrero in your hat. So

794
00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:58,720
Speaker 2: that's not ideal.

795
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: But the ideal is somebody wearing it in front of you,

796
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:03,879
Speaker 1: so they're still getting the fashion statement and I'm still

797
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: getting my snacks.

798
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 2: You know what pisses me off though, you know, and

799
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 2: this is I think it's getting me. See how nicely

800
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 2: and easily organized everything is on. You know, it's just

801
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 2: gonna be a pile of slop and then I'm gonna

802
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 2: be pissed and I'm gonna hate it to be a

803
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 2: giant pile. I like the organization of the stuff that's

804
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:20,399
Speaker 2: all in there.

805
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: It looks Yeah, it's never gonna be that organizat though.

806
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 1: It's like my baked potato, barbecue baked potato. The lady

807
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 1: had the sample of it. I was like, oh my god,

808
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,839
Speaker 1: that was amazing. I got one. It had like a

809
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,840
Speaker 1: third of the pulled pork that hers had. Now complete,

810
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 1: bs man, piss me off. All right, Let's get to

811
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 1: some things that were good and bad from yesterday. Raphael

812
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:40,280
Speaker 1: Deveres two were five with a Homer, Matt Olson hubbout.

813
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,320
Speaker 1: Homer doubled twice, drove in three runs in that seventeenth

814
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 1: to two route, and Todd Bradley shout out the Royals

815
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: for six innings for the win for the first time

816
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 1: as a twin ever on Thursday, so good on him.

817
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,239
Speaker 1: The downs David Peterson was knocked around the ballpark for

818
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,280
Speaker 1: six runs, five earned. Ryan Nelson we talked about him earlier,

819
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 1: not his best day, but the Dback's bullpen gave up

820
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 1: ten more runs after he came out, So yeah, there

821
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: you go.

822
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:04,799
Speaker 2: All.

823
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 1: Let's talk about some quick injuries. Mickey Moniac with his

824
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,760
Speaker 1: finger could be activated on Friday today against the Phillies.

825
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 1: Keep an eye off for that. And Spencer Strider with

826
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 1: his oblique is actually gonna throw a bullpen session today

827
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,879
Speaker 1: if all goes well. We can only imagine maybe next

828
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 1: week we get a rehab assignment for him. That would

829
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 1: be good. We would like to see that very much.

830
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,359
Speaker 1: Which brings us to our home run calls. Let's take

831
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:24,919
Speaker 1: a look at the leader board. Do you have any

832
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:25,720
Speaker 1: movement from yesterday?

833
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:25,920
Speaker 2: Oh?

834
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: My god? Who has on fire? I just wondered, whoever?

835
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,920
Speaker 1: Who dad has? Oh my god? Five?

836
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 2: Five?

837
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:34,440
Speaker 1: Have we even had five games?

838
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:35,320
Speaker 3: I know?

839
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,600
Speaker 2: And we're double digis now too, so all our little

840
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 2: singulars me and Wonkee kicked off the board. So this

841
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:41,840
Speaker 2: is impressive.

842
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 1: All right? So this weekend I'm going with Shoheltani against

843
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: the Nationals. I think I'm good for at least two

844
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,319
Speaker 1: there to get on this board. Who knows, maybe I'll

845
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:49,880
Speaker 1: have a big day with three Welsh. Where are you

846

Speaker 2: Well, anytime I do a Friday it's through the weekend

849
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,839

870
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 1: a buzzer beater, So Welsh today, for me, I'm going

871
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 1: with you Ordonnavatus to drive in a run, keeping it

872
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 1: simple like my butt kicked yesterday by the Ryan Nelson outing.

873
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 1: Ugh not good, which seemed pretty good on paper. Four

874
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 1: and a half strikeouts seemed easy. Nope, that when you

875
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 1: get your butt kicked in that game. But I think

876
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 1: your now Rerez has been swinging a hop at here.

877
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 1: He's traveling two Sacramento to play the athletics. Springs is

878
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 1: on the mound today. I think you are don at

879
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:16,879
Speaker 1: plus one oh five can drive in a run. Welsh,

880
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:18,919
Speaker 1: where are you going for your best bet of the day.

881
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:22,280
Speaker 2: We are gonna play a little bit of Nerfy action

882
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 2: for today. We are gonna go with Miami and the Yankees.

883
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 2: We've got a little Uri Perez in and we got

884
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 2: some Will Warren the Yankee. I mean god, I'm gonna

885
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 2: say this and knock on wood. You know this is dead.

886
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,439
Speaker 2: But Yankee's only given up seven in runs all year,

887
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,319
Speaker 2: our six in runs all year. It's absolutely ridiculous. Their

888
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 2: pitching has been incredible. Will Warren's just got to shut

889
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:43,840
Speaker 2: down the Marlins in the first inning, and eury Perez

890
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 2: is gonna be pumping hard into the beginning. So I'm

891
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:50,239
Speaker 2: gonna say no run first inning nerfe action Miami and

892
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 2: the Yankees.

893
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,080
