Is good to 18 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 2: see you. We've missed you on the show. We've missed 19 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 2: you on the show. It's been a lot of fun 20 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,040 Speaker 2: getting to do shows with Bubba. But back into the 21 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 2: old routine we had in July and August, getting to 22 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 2: do some shows together. So we got what two more 23 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 2: left this season together? Maybe one more if Bubba's on 24 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 2: next Monday. So this might be our send off the 25 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 2: two of us. 26 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: I was about to say this. You didn't even think 27 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: of that. Actually, yeah, this might be the last one 28 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: you and I are doing. Yeah, the plan. It is crazy. 29 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: I know everybody is dealing with, especially all the peanuts 30 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: and cracker jacks that are still hanging live. It's good 31 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: to see everybody, but like, it is crazy to think 32 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: that the season is just about completely done. We've got 33 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: this week. Some crazies out there. People play into next week. 34 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 1: You people are insane, but you know you want to. 35 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 1: It's a little bit less insane, I suppose we can 36 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: be honest. It was crazy years ago because of the 37 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: forty man roster designation that would happen in September, where 38 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: the entire forty man roster would become available and then 39 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: teams would just do like wacky stuff. It's not quite 40 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: that now. Starting pitchers are a little bit eh, a 41 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: little bit eh, you know, fore innings and stuff like that. 42 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: Some bullpen open and whatever. But it's not as crazy. 43 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: But it's still it's insane going through to the very end. 44 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: But yes, we've got the rest of this week. The 45 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: next week most likely will be Bubba and I on Monday, 46 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: and then the final show as long as everything goes 47 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: to plan next Friday. Just reminding everybody, Joe and I 48 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: will do a great return for the final in season 49 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: show that we're doing here on leading off, but lots 50 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: of cool off season stuff will be here for you. 51 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: I know Joe and I haven't I especially have I 52 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 1: get the extra bonus points that Joe doesn't get. But 53 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: we'll be here talking you through to the end of 54 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: the season, getting you set into the off season and 55 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: some more Arico and Bubba. Let's get into it, Joe, 56 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: I'm excited to talk some baseball. It's been a lot 57 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: of football lately, and let's talk about James Wood. Two 58 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: for three yesterday, two solo homers, he had a walk 59 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: as the Nationals beat the Marlins. Now with a two 60 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: seventy three slash and almost one hundred higher OBP, seven homers, 61 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: twelve steals, sixty six games. If you want to play extrapolation, 62 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: you're probably in the vicinity of like eighteen thirty, eighteen 63 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 1: twenty eight. We could almost with progression. Call this a 64 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: twenty thirty outlook. As he's improved his strikeout rate, he's 65 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: making better contact holding. The batting average I think is 66 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: so so key, you know, a big thing with like, 67 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: I don't know how people are going to walk out 68 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: of this year with O'Neal Cruz. I think it's a 69 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 1: smashing success. I think what O'Neal Cruz has done, even 70 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 1: though he just got hurt, he's moved to centerfield to 71 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: hit the batting average that he's had pull out a 72 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: twenty twenty season. Thought he'd have more Homer's hand up 73 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. That's a big win. The same 74 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: thing with James Wood, and we're getting into territory of 75 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: talking about twenty twenty five a whole lot, and he 76 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: hasn't quite got the love of the Churios and the 77 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: Jackson Merrill. Probably maybe it's because it's not as deserved, 78 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: but the improvement of the batting average, the power speed combo, 79 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: it's really been awesome. 80 00:03:58,200 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 3: He's been amazing. 81 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 2: I mean, especially in a year where most rookies have 82 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 2: fallen on their face and disappointed us, James Wood has 83 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: been one of the few where you used a mid 84 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 2: season pickup or you stashed him and it's actually paid off. 85 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 3: It's a couple of little concerning things like the twenty 86 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 3: nine percent strikeout rate. I don't love. 87 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 2: In terms of the steals, he has twelve of them, 88 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 2: but he's been caught seven times, so I'd like to 89 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 2: see him be a little bit more efficient. 90 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 3: But he's been amazing. And I think if. 91 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 2: We're looking at early twenty twenty five stuff Paba did 92 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 2: that early draft, I think he went at the end 93 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 2: of the third round in a fifteen team or so, 94 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 2: like the forty to forty five pick range. 95 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 3: I think that's probably. 96 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 2: Gonna be what we're gonna have to stomach if we 97 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 2: want James Wood on our teams next year. 98 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting Bachman and I have been doing 99 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: this thing on the in This League Baseball podcast where 100 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: we've been essentially assigning this talent. So two weeks ago, 101 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 1: we did these are the first round players, not like, 102 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: here are fifteen guys. No, it's these are the players 103 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 1: that justify the first round talent. We came up with 104 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: only thirteen of them. We then did the second round talent, 105 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: and I think we ended up with like eighteen players. 106 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: That kind of quantified second round talent, and then we 107 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: had this fringy area. James Wood was kind of like 108 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: not quite talked about in the fringe. He maybe but 109 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: maybe he should be. And there were a few players 110 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: and we're gonna talk about one of them, like in 111 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: Cheerio Cheerio and Merrill. We did kind of just decide 112 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 1: to graduate into that second round talent. Wood will probably 113 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: end up being like a I don't know I had 114 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: a third or fourth round talent. People are gonna extrapolate. 115 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: You're probably the strikeout rate might cool him on projections, 116 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: but it's gonna be some pretty big numbers. And twenty thirty. Man, 117 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: you know, twenty thirty. You can't can't be hating on that. Also, 118 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 1: Jack Or did Jeb Moore and James Wood. 119 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 2: I was gonna say, like the power, he might even 120 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 2: be leaving a little bit on the table, Like he 121 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 2: has seven homers in sixty six games, but fifty two 122 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 2: percent hard hit, ten percent barrel rate, that could even 123 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 2: be twenty five thirty home runs. 124 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 3: It wouldn't really surprise me. 125 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, he's leaving it on the table, as is 126 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: O'Neal Cruse. I'll come back to that too, like O'Neil 127 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,799 Speaker 1: Cruz has sacrificed. I think some launch angle an attack 128 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: for really good batting average, and then I think the 129 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,239 Speaker 1: next step is going to be to get the ball 130 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 1: back in the ear more. When you hit the ball 131 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: like one hundred and twenty miles an hour and you 132 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: have like, you know, huge average evs and max evs 133 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: like that, you're leaving power on the table. Cruise is 134 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: leaving and I think James Wood is doing it in 135 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: the same way. We just see like a common thing 136 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 1: with rookie young players is like getting the ball in 137 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: the air is a problem. You'll see launch angle be 138 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 1: the thing that is struggling when they have like you know, 139 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: really good barrel rates and really good hard hit rates 140 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. One guy has not had to 141 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 1: struggle with it is Jackson Surio three for five, three 142 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: run homer, two run triple against my d Backs yesterday. 143 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: Homer was his twenty first and this is a shoutout 144 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: to Rotal World for putting this together, placing him twenty 145 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: first all time on a list of players that are 146 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: twenty or younger. With I think it's that they didn't 147 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: finish their sentence of twenty twenty the twenty five if 148 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: he were to hit twenty five homers would put him 149 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 1: in the tie him with Eddie Matthews and Orlando Subpita. 150 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 1: He's also now fourteenth on the RBA I list for 151 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: twenty year olds, which puts him in like ridiculous territory. Everybody, 152 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: this is the time of year where we're like, you know, 153 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: putting like this guy's in this list and this and 154 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: the jection ture has been absolutely incredible, and we put 155 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: him as a second round talent for next year. I'm 156 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: not sure how you feel about that, Like back end 157 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: of the second round twenty five to thirty is probably 158 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: going to be like an easy so like a third 159 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: rounder and head to head twelve team, fifteen team roto 160 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: probably the back end of the second round. 161 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 2: He has such an amazing profile. Everything is, everything is amazing. 162 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 2: He hits the ball hard, he steals you know, the 163 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 2: in game power is good. He doesn't strike out a lot, 164 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 2: the walk rate's pretty solid, not a lot of Babbitt pluck. 165 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 2: Like there's nothing you can point to really to say like, 166 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 2: oh I don't really buy this, especially. 167 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 3: Being twenty years old. 168 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 2: Like if we're talking about him as the number one 169 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 2: overall player in fantasy like two or three years from now. 170 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 2: I wouldn't at all be surprised by it. I think 171 00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: he's definitely going to be a second rounder. If you 172 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 2: get him in the third next I'd be prett happy 173 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 2: with that. 174 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: George Kirby allowed one hit over seven innings. He combined 175 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: with Matt Thornton and Edward Bizardo Edward Bizardo for a 176 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: seven zero shutout over the Rangers. This stat also in 177 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: rotal World. Kirby now six to zero with a point 178 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: nine two ERA and eight career starts against the Rangers. 179 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: So I mean, like there's a place just built in 180 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: he's had rent free space in the Rangers head as 181 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: Kirby keeps going kind of disappointing, Like the up and 182 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: down of Kirby this year. I really thought he was 183 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: gonna be a cy young contender, but he has still been, 184 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: you know, pretty phenomenal in points. 185 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I thought he was going to take 186 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 2: that step forward. I thought there was a chance that 187 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 2: he could break into like that top three overall pitchers 188 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 2: in baseball. But he's kind of if you look at 189 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 2: the preseason projections, just pulling up what they had in 190 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 2: the Fangrass projections preseason, He's kind of done like exactly 191 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: what they were thinking pretty much. Three five, three six, 192 00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 2: type era, twenty three percent strikeout rate, solid whip. I've 193 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 2: heard a lot of Mariners fans recently. I think it's 194 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 2: because of the bad stretch that you had talked about 195 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 2: how it was a disappointing season, but you know where 196 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 2: I drafted Kirby. I find it hard to be actually 197 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 2: disappointed in the production I've gotten. 198 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think a lot of it had to do 199 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 1: with it was just like sky high expectations. Like I 200 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: remember the moment for it wasn't everybody, it was for me, 201 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: But it was like about ten months ago a little 202 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: bit more maybe here at first pitch out here in 203 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: Arizona and I'm on Rates and Barrels live show. It 204 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 1: was me Eno and DVR, and someone asked the question 205 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,839 Speaker 1: because in the studio audience on the live show of 206 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: like you know who if it's not I think they said, 207 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: you know somebody, not Garrett Cole or whatever, who is 208 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: the number one pitcher? And I had brought up George Kirby, 209 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: And it was because of the command numbers and like 210 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 1: Jason Collett was with me and we kind of had 211 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,679 Speaker 1: this long conversation around it where you know, a bunch 212 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: of us were picking on, like, because there's different elements 213 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: sometimes we're gonnaocus on. Sometimes it's going to be you know, 214 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: obviously strikeout rate and pitchability. But it was like George 215 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 1: Kirby's command master, and it was like, if he could 216 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: just improve here, those command numbers could equate to him 217 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: maybe being like an elite strikeout player number one in baseball, 218 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: but he just still is inconsistent. You know, he just 219 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: has those blow up games where you know he doesn't 220 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: want to walk somebody and he starts pitching to too 221 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: much contact and then it just gets blown up or whatever. 222 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: Kirby's an interesting one. A couple of good guys that 223 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: have definitely helped up fantasy teams as of recent David 224 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: Peterson allowed four hits, one run with six strikeouts across 225 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: seven and two thirds and a no decision against Philly. 226 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: He had eighteen swing and misses, which was almost a 227 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: season high. Also fourteen hard hit balls. I've seen that 228 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,439 Speaker 1: quite a bit lately. I was doing some CBS h 229 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: Q hits talking about some pitchers with some really really 230 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: big hard hit numbers. And then the other one with 231 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: the Reds. Ret Louder allowed three runs on six hits, 232 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: five and one third struck out five. They lost, but 233 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: has a one point seven to four ERA over his 234 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: you know, last four MLB starts has been great. He's 235 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: kind of a if he threw ninety seven, he'd be 236 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: a Kirby clone because he's a guy that likes to 237 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: hit the zone. He struggled a little bit with that, 238 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: got that wipeout sweeper slider. He's been throwing thoughts on 239 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: David Peterson Rehet Louder right now. 240 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 2: David Peterson is one of the hardest pitchers to evaluate 241 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: in all of baseball. Like he's having the best stretch 242 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 2: of his career to eighty five ERA, but it's come 243 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 2: with a nineteen percent strikeout rate, a one point three 244 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 2: to one whip, almost a double digit walk rate. I 245 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,719 Speaker 2: don't really trust him, I really don't. I know he's 246 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 2: been mowing down solid teams here, but if I'm looking 247 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 2: at lineups for the last couple of weeks and having 248 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 2: to trust what he's done, I just don't know that 249 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 2: it's really that sustainable. Everything below the surface is a 250 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,839 Speaker 2: little bit concerning for David Peterson unless he gets the 251 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 2: strikeout rate back up to where it was because he 252 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 2: was an elite not maybe not elite, but twenty six 253 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 2: twenty seven percent strikeout rate down to nineteen, I just 254 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 2: don't feel a lot of safety throwing him out there. 255 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 2: For Louder, he's also been good, but you know, he's 256 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 2: really and he's a younger guy, so it's a little 257 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: bit different, but he's way out performing his expected metrics, 258 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 2: not a lot of strikeouts. So both of them kind 259 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 2: of make me nervous down the stretch here deploying them 260 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 2: over the last couple of weeks. 261 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: To be honest, we're also in a point like in 262 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,199 Speaker 1: the chat was talking about you, just like I also 263 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: people asking question here, question there, and it's like, it's 264 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 1: the last two weeks. You just got to have a 265 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 1: quick trigger finger. The thing that's really been working with 266 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,079 Speaker 1: the Mets. They are one of the hottest teams in baseball. 267 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: That was the thing I did. I think it was Saturday. 268 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: I did a hit on HQ doing a couple we 269 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: were talking about maybe it was Friday, you know, I 270 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: think you know it was Friday, talking about like Jacob 271 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 1: de Grom's first start and a couple other things, and 272 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: the Mets had just pulled off a win over the 273 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: Phillies and they're like nine in one in their last 274 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 1: ten and they're you know, their bullpen era had been solid, 275 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: their overall era over the last thirty days had been money. 276 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 1: There's just momentum, and sometimes momentum carries. So like, I agree, 277 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: I agree. I'm always paying attention to underlying stats and 278 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: overperforming and stuff like that, But when there's like, you know, 279 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: two more starts to go and you have momentum on 280 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:06,199 Speaker 1: the side, I think Peterson's pretty fascinating. I think Louder 281 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: is also pretty fascinating. And we'll continue, by the way, 282 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: rest of the show talking about other ins and outs 283 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: of players that might be helping you guys, you know, 284 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: over this next week, because, like I said, just you go, oh, 285 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: guys not performing yet, Bye bye bye. Injuries at this point, obviously, 286 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: an il stint is a season ender, but any type 287 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,680 Speaker 1: of injury is warranted. So like I'm just gonna throw 288 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: this out. Who put this question in here? 289 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 3: R M. 290 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 1: I'm guessing Garcia said, should I drop Kowser for win? 291 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: Robless or Pete Crow Armstrong head to head points semi final, 292 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: not Robless. Robless is on our injury report, so I 293 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: would be scared about him. I might for Pete Crow 294 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: Armstrong because he's been one of the hottest players in baseball. 295 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:50,719 Speaker 1: I got him on the list by the way to 296 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: run homer victory over the Rockies on Sunday. I'm not 297 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: looking at it this say. I think he's pacing out 298 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: to like thirty stolen bases, just quietly having what a 299 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: Nico Horner year. He is Nico Horner in the outfield, 300 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: except he had a really bad stretch run. And I 301 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: don't know why people don't perceive people perceive I think 302 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: him in a worse light. Nico Horner always didn't have 303 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: power projection, and he overplayed his stolen bases a bit, 304 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: and I hated him this year as far as fantasy goes. 305 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: But Pete Armstrong was free, has been free, has had 306 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: absurdly low percentage ownership percentages up until two weeks ago. 307 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: A week ago, so he has been a massive pickup. 308 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: He's been hot. Pick up the hot hand right now. 309 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: Still in base guys don't really help in points, but 310 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: you know, a little bit of power is showing off 311 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: scoring runs. I'm into Pete ro Armstrong right now. 312 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 3: Oh, I am too. 313 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 2: I think the reason people were more down on him 314 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: is because it was just so bad initially offensively, like 315 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 2: what he did last year, what he did the first 316 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 2: half of this season. He had like a thirty six 317 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 2: WRC plus for the first half of the season. 318 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 3: He was not doing anything. 319 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 2: I know, over the last month, he's a top ten 320 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 2: fantasy player while playing some of the best defense in 321 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 2: the league. I think that people are kind of just 322 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 2: slow on the turnaround because of how low he was before. 323 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 2: But yeah, he's only fifty six percent rostered on Yahoo. 324 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 2: I'm sure it's even lower on ESPN and a little 325 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 2: bit higher probably on CBS. But he's available. I wouldn't 326 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 2: have any problem making that swap for Kowser. 327 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would make that swap if you want to 328 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: do that. That's a play to definitely go with two 329 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: on the interesting column. And I'm pointing this one out 330 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: because I literally this was the back to that TV 331 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: hit that I did. I was literally talking about this 332 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 1: and then I just kind of like laughed when I 333 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: saw it after coming into a tied game. Rice el Iglesias, 334 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: whom I just want to point out had not allowed 335 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: a run since June sixteenth. He had had I believe, 336 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: thirty four straight innings of not giving up an earned run. 337 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: Gave up five runs in two thirds of an inning 338 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: as the Braves loss to the Dodgers, which is crazy 339 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 1: the not earned run. This is a note that Rotal 340 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: World had, which was when he took his own is 341 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: only lost in fifty nine appearances. This season's era still 342 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: under two, but it jumped almost a full run. I 343 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: just I like laugh to myself because we were talking 344 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: about this, and I'm like, yeah, Risler Glacier has been absurd. 345 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 1: Thirty four straight innings, he's been so locked down, and 346 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: then probably most critical time, big playoff piece for people 347 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: going into Championship week, he gets blown up for five 348 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: and runs. I guess it wasn't a blown save situation, 349 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: but takes a loss. I just thought that was fascinating 350 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: with Iglesias. And do you think Iglesias is going to 351 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: be like a top five closer next year? He's not 352 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: going to be in the pricey price range, but I 353 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: don't know, like he was around six or seven this year, 354 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: so it's not going to be that much worse or 355 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: that much better. 356 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 2: I suppose even he should be close to a thirty 357 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 2: one saves buck eighty seventy right point seven to two. 358 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 3: Whip is just insane. 359 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 2: So I feel like Edwin Diaz is probably going to 360 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 2: go ahead of him because of the name value and 361 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 2: a lot of leagues Class A will go ahead of him. 362 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 2: Maybe hater he's top five, though he should be top five. 363 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 2: It's funny the guy in the chance on the chat 364 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 2: Glaciers lost me my championship yesterday. So I was away 365 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 2: over the weekend with a friend and we were doing 366 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,679 Speaker 2: all these pickups for the head to head semifinals and 367 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 2: like all right. 368 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 3: Stream jpcars, stream, you know whoever else. 369 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:15,919 Speaker 2: Were talking, David fest and all this stuff, and it 370 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 2: he was up seven to three with like a couple 371 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 2: of games left, and I was like, all right, look, 372 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 2: you look like you're pretty good. Riise Ellah Glacy has 373 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 2: cost him his whole season yesterday is no whole season. 374 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 2: Lost Whip by point one, lost e ra a. It's crazy, man. 375 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 2: Head to head is all that it takes is just 376 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 2: one bad ye outing and your whole season is done. 377 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 3: It's awful. 378 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: It definitely will turn you into cry baby Rodo, Like yeah, 379 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: like we have those stories. Our friend group has those 380 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: stories that our famous fam our little world was our 381 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 1: bogman and I's friend will. He was up in the 382 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:53,120 Speaker 1: Championships Sunday night baseball Hunter Pence comes up, hits two 383 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 1: homers in the game, we tie eight to eight, and 384 00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: I won because of tiebreakers in the regular season. So 385 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: he would change his team to like eight dash eight 386 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: would be his team name, like never for these are 387 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: the things that these are your villain arcs, this type 388 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: of the season. Bt Fouts Iglesias is his villain arc 389 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: right there. Can you imagine? It's just such a brutal blow. 390 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 1: The other fun piece, I still can't believe this is real. 391 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: Helio Ramos hit a game tying homer in the ninth 392 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 1: inning yesterday on Sunday. Giants ended up losing, but that 393 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:32,439 Speaker 1: wasn't the story. Ramos became the first ever right handed 394 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,719 Speaker 1: hitter in the history of Oracle Park to hit it 395 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 1: into the right field bay, to hit it over into 396 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 1: the water, the first right handed hitter ever. I can't 397 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,120 Speaker 1: I isn't like twenty five years this day? 398 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 3: Is that? 399 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,639 Speaker 1: Am I wrong about that? With a stadium that's a crazy, 400 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: crazy stat to me. And it was Helio Ramos. So 401 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 1: I'm glad it was like a giant that did it 402 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: in their ballpark. But I don't know, that's one of 403 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:00,959 Speaker 1: those that you've heard on just like I don't know, 404 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: it doesn't seem real to me. Someone has to have 405 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: done it. Nope, it was Helio Ramos yesterday. 406 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 2: You were you're a San Francisco guy, right, Was that 407 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 2: the same park that was there when you were a kid? 408 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 3: Or is it different park? No? 409 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:15,199 Speaker 1: It was Ah, what was I'm forgetting what it was? No, this, 410 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: I don't think this was the same one that was there. 411 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: I was made to say Candlestick, but that's the. 412 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 2: You know, I'm just surprised, like Stanton ever did it 413 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 2: once or just even like I don't know Pools in 414 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 2: his prime, Miguel Cabrera. 415 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, Like, how did no other right 416 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: handed hitter like accidentally do this? At some point you're saying, 417 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: I don't know many games Aaron Judge has played there. 418 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: But that's but that's also like what's so uniquely special 419 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: And it's a uniquely special baseball thing where it's like 420 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: you can have this ballpark that's been standing there for 421 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: X many years and something has never happened, and all 422 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: this of a sudden boom boom. 423 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 3: There you go. It is pretty wild, like Bonds did it. 424 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 3: I guess. 425 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 2: I guess a lot of their famous guys are left 426 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 2: handed hitters over the recently. I mean, I guess it's 427 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 2: just most yeah, I mean obvious, but it's still it's 428 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 2: still bizarre, like it's I mean, it's hard. You know, 429 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 2: it's a far distance, opposite field, but for it to 430 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 2: have never I was very surprised. I think I saw 431 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:06,679 Speaker 2: you know, tweet about it, and I was. 432 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,639 Speaker 1: Like, it's just so crazy. 433 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 3: It's crazy. 434 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, And twenty plus homer season for Helio Ramo so 435 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,160 Speaker 1: point another sneaky rookie in here. I feel so bad 436 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: for pet Fouts, says, I can't think about it too 437 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: much or I get a little salty about Ryce. E 438 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 1: Iglesias also shout out to Travis first year following the 439 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: Pod my first ever league win last night. That's awesome, 440 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 1: and the official Mark yelling at us Peterson, you guys 441 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: are wrong. I mean I brought up I actually defended, 442 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,399 Speaker 1: so I don't know if you were even listening because 443 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: I just said, David Peterson is someone that has been 444 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 1: good and you should follow the rest of the season 445 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: because of momentum. So listen with the ears. All right. 446 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:44,679 Speaker 3: That was directed to me. 447 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 1: I think, well, but he said you guys, So I'm 448 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: going to take it personal. If you say you guys, 449 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 1: that's not saying, hey, Joe, you're wrong. We would have 450 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: moved on and I would have agreed with you, by 451 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 1: the way. I would have agreed, yes, Joe is very 452 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: wrong and he should be punished. But you said you guys. 453 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: So there you go, three up and three down. On 454 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 1: the up. Three players on Sunday hit some double dongs. 455 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 1: We had James Wood who we talked about, Michael Bush 456 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:10,400 Speaker 1: and Riley Green. Michael Bush sneaky, sneaky this whole year. 457 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 1: Did you have a stat line up here? I don't 458 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 1: want everything to break apart in my computer if I 459 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 1: do this, but I feel what is it twenty something? 460 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: Homer just absolutely. He was a big preseason guy for me, 461 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,360 Speaker 1: and then he just kind of got boring and fed down. 462 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: Give me those numbers. 463 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 2: So over the last week, by the way, number one 464 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 2: overall fantasy player over the last seven days, but for 465 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 2: the season, as a whole, seventy one runs, twenty homers, 466 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 2: sixty three ribbies, two steals in a two fifty seven 467 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 2: batting average. 468 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 1: That's pretty solid, pretty solid, very solid for free. That's 469 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: the other thing for free. Also Kid Povich yesterday five innings, 470 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,880 Speaker 1: struck out eight. Love a little bit up and down, 471 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,679 Speaker 1: a little bit moving through here, but Kid Povich is 472 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 1: making it work. Christopher Sanchez went seven, struck out seven, 473 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: continues to do it on the three down Cad and 474 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 1: Dana three and one thirds, gave up five earned runs. 475 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 1: Bel Cal Quantrill went two and one third, gave up 476 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: only two earned runs and walked six. Blue Mark Vientos 477 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 1: over four with four strikeouts. I believe the golden sombrero. 478 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: Do we ever figure out? Is it platinum sombrero? The 479 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,120 Speaker 1: over five with five strike down? 480 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:17,919 Speaker 3: I think it's platinum. Yeah. I wonder if anyboy's ever 481 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 3: had that over six with six strikeouts. I don't even 482 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 3: know what we'd call that. Probably never happened before, or 483 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 3: maybe that, Oh, I. 484 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 1: Cant think of it, but I don't think we can 485 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: say it on the show. What we would call that? 486 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 3: Uh? 487 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: And by the way, it's okay. The official Mark he says, 488 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 1: my bad Joe is very wrong. That's what we were David, 489 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: David and Peterson. He is in for it next week. 490 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: We just want to point that out. On the injury front, 491 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: there was a lot of them, and I'm not advocating 492 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: to any of these things. I'm about to say that 493 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: you cut these players, but if there's any like ambiguity 494 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: about the timeline, you have to make tough decisions, but 495 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: just follow it. Francisco Lindoors undergoing an MRI and his 496 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 1: back on Monday. That is critical. He is absolutely critical 497 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: to this team. Onneil Cruz, this is kind of where 498 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 1: I'm leading to. He left Sunday's game against the Royals 499 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: with left ankle discomfort. Monitor that because you don't want 500 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: to do it, but like, if he's gonna miss the week, 501 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: you know exactly what you need to do. Victor Roeblis, 502 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 1: this is another one. He came up earlier. He left 503 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 1: Wednesday's game against the Rangers on Sunday with an apparent injury. 504 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 1: We'll probably find out news about that, so I might 505 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: have to do that. Diamondbacks, they activated Gabby Mourno from 506 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: the ten day and then place Paul Seawald on the 507 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 1: fifteen day if he had not already been cut Bye 508 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 1: bye bye bye. Don't need Paul Seawald anywhere. And the 509 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 1: Phillies activated Alec Boom. Alec Boom back critical for that team. 510 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 1: That Mets Philly thing has just been just a ton 511 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,239 Speaker 1: of fun just to watch it. I like seeing these 512 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: teams like bounce back up. I feel like the NLS 513 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: has just been h you know, like the Dodgers have 514 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 1: been kind of weird as of recent The Diamondbacks over 515 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: the last thirty days have the worst bullpen era and 516 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 1: all of Baseball Padres have not. I thought what the 517 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 1: Padres did in the trade deadline was like, Oh, They're 518 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 1: leading up to have this incredible, massive run with this bullpen, 519 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: and it just hasn't. Robert Swarez blew a save last 520 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: night and then Adrian Morion, Adrian Morion had to get 521 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 1: the save. They traded for Tanner Scott Jason Adam. They've 522 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: got Robert Swarez and Adrian mo Morion is getting saved. 523 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: That's not how that's supposed to be. 524 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, Robert Suarez, I mean, for the season as a whole, 525 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 2: he's been very good, but over the last like I 526 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,400 Speaker 2: don't know, maybe month or so things have not gone 527 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 2: as well for him. A few blown says yeah, with 528 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 2: the last month six to seventy five ERA one fifty 529 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 2: nine whips, So you know, the Rodo people won't mind. 530 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,400 Speaker 2: But like you mentioned earlier, the head to Heead people 531 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 2: might have some beef with Robert Suarez. 532 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 1: I like this Fenway six k's is the vibranium some brera. 533 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: That one makes me laugh because I'm a nerd. And 534 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 1: then Michael said the dfade sombrero that also these definitely 535 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 1: makes sense. Has there ever been a player that has 536 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: struck out more than six times in a game? What's 537 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 1: the most strikeouts a single player has had in one game, 538 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 1: not like a double header on the day, but like 539 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: a singular game which obviously went to multiple innings. What 540 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: do you think it is? 541 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 3: I would say probably five or six, but I want to. 542 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: Say someone has struck out seven times. We should look 543 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 1: that up for like the next show. I just want 544 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 1: to know. 545 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 2: So, most strikeouts in a game as a batter, Carl 546 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 2: Carl Wheelman fifteen in in game though in nineteen thirteen 547 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 2: he strugg Yeah. 548 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: That's okay, extra innings is okay? 549 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 3: How many six times? So it looks like six is 550 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 3: the most in a single game. 551 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: Wow, there's never been seven. 552 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 2: Done most recently by Jeff Jenkins of the Milwaukee Brewers 553 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 2: on June eighth, two thousand and four. So it's been 554 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 2: twenty years. Is assuming I'm looking at the right data here, 555 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 2: I think it's I think it's six. 556 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: So we should call that the perfect sombrero. I think 557 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: I have the name. It's like the perfect game, the 558 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: perfect sombrero. It happens like once every like twenty years, 559 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 1: and then seven would just be, you know, the all 560 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 1: time worst goat. I mean, we say Brandon Mott, Wait, 561 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,679 Speaker 1: hold on, look at this. Benway says Brandon Moss seven 562 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: times in a game in twenty thirteen. Sam Horns seven 563 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 1: times in a fifteen game in nineteen ninety one. 564 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 2: According to chet woh chat GBT. So probably hopefully right, 565 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:17,239 Speaker 2: but you never know, you never know. 566 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,239 Speaker 1: Well, I'm calling the set one of those is the 567 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: perfect sombrero, and it might not need to be seven. 568 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: That's I don't know. That's Those are the things that 569 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,199 Speaker 1: keep me up at night, by the way, like I 570 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 1: just wonder about those awesome things, like what could have been, 571 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 1: Like who did something so horribly bad that we can't 572 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 1: get out of it. Hopefully we can do something so 573 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: amazingly good friends, let's talk about some bets. Let's get 574 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 1: in on it for the best Bets of the day 575 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,679 Speaker 1: with Yeah, how funny is this when you two are 576 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: there and it's like literally neither one of these two 577 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: are on that you guys have been having fun with that? 578 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 3: All right? 579 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: It is the best bets of the day, our three 580 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: favorite bets, and mister Joe Rico, let's start with you. 581 00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 1: I'd also point out if people haven't like picked this 582 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: up when we talk about the best bets, it's something 583 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,959 Speaker 1: that there's a fantasy implication in it as well. Obviously 584 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: if we're taking certain prop players just want to throw 585 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 1: that out. But what do you got on your best 586 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: bets of the day? 587 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 2: So I'm starting off and I think we might be 588 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 2: on the same page here with Paul Skeins over six 589 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 2: and a half strikeouts, it just feels like a very 590 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 2: low number. He's pretty consistently going over and at worst 591 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 2: he's been getting like six strikeouts in the game. It 592 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 2: feels like a pretty safe bet at minus one zero 593 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,439 Speaker 2: five for Skins over, and I'm going with Redebtmers to 594 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 2: record the win. These are always a little bit trickier, 595 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 2: but he's looked great against two awesome opponents in this 596 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 2: first couple starts out, he gets the White Sox as 597 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 2: long as he's able to go five six innings. 598 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 3: That Penn behind him is. 599 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 2: A little bit of a concern, but the White Sox 600 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 2: are just a joke. I feel like Red Detmer' is 601 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 2: a plus money to get the win is a pretty 602 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 2: pretty safe bet. And then Antonio sends a Tella who's 603 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 2: making his season debut tonight at Cors against the Arizona Diamondbacks, 604 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 2: who I mean, they've been like the best offensive team 605 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 2: in baseball this year, arguably at Coors, a guy faving 606 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 2: in his debut. Sends a Tella who's never been a 607 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,679 Speaker 2: great pitcher really over two and a half earned runs 608 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 2: at minus one thirty five. All those are bet three 609 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 2: six five, And I'll add just quickly, if you're seeing 610 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 2: Reed Debtmer's out there in like a daily pickup league 611 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 2: for that start tonight, that's a pretty pretty nice stream 612 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 2: you can get there. 613 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 3: Only forty two percent roster right. 614 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 1: Now, and Diamondback hitters would be a great shot. The 615 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 1: only thing that's going to keep Sinstela off. This is 616 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: if he's only doing like an opener, I don't know 617 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,400 Speaker 1: how it's two and a half. If they are gonna 618 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: let him go a full run, I'm gonna play against 619 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: that here as well. I like I like those bets, 620 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:33,919 Speaker 1: and I like you getting tricky with it too, Like 621 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: the debtmers to record a win. I think that's a 622 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: fun tricky one. So, as you mentioned, I'm we I'm 623 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: tailing the Paul Skins one. He's facing the Cardinals twice 624 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: this year. He struck out eight in both outings. We're 625 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: on the back end of Like I'm not saying it is, 626 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: but it's like, yeah, maximum three more starts. What if 627 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: this was the last start and or you know, there's 628 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: one more out of it, Like I think you go 629 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 1: balls to the wall, is what I'm saying. So six 630 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: and a half it is very reasonable. He's had some 631 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: six strikeout outings, but he has gotten to the Cardinals 632 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: quite a bit. It's minus one oh five. I like 633 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 1: that number number two. Give me the Dodgers first five 634 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: money line. You guys know, if you follow it all 635 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: season long, you know me. I love my first fives. 636 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 1: That's where I get most of my action going. I 637 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: will say that the Dodgers' money line today is not 638 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: a bad number. It's minus one fifteen or minus one 639 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: fifteen one eighteen Yashanoba Yama Moto versus Max Freed. The 640 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 1: Dodgers over the last thirty days have a over two 641 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: sixty average against lefty, so they have been hitting it. 642 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: It is also the Dodgers who have been lacking some consistency. 643 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: But Yamamoto has been really good. I believe he's given 644 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: up one earned run over his last four outings since 645 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 1: being back. So I am or maybe it's three. I'm 646 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: gonna go and back Yama Moto on the first five. 647 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 1: That's a little bit more juiced. So I just need 648 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: them to be winning. If they're tied, I get my 649 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: money back minus one thirty. I'm also in on that 650 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: full game, and then I really love this one. Spencer Arraghetty. 651 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: Strikeouts are low for him because you're going against Padres. 652 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: Padres can be a tough team to strike out, though 653 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: we have seen some big outings. Raghetty is at four 654 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: and a half over, so five strikeouts I need. He 655 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 1: has hit this number in eight of his last nine outings. 656 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: He has really found a rhythm into the second half 657 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: outside of like one or two difficult situations. But five 658 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 1: strikeouts over this full one, I love that against the Padres. 659 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: Those are my best bets. We both got schemes. I 660 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 1: got Dodger's first five money line and Arrighedtty over strikeouts. 661 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: You've got schemes with Redebtners to record a dub and 662 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: Antonio Cinctela to give up over two and a half 663 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: earn runs. Yes, friends, those are the best bets of 664 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: the day with Welsh and mister Joe Arico. Before we 665 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: get to the home run call here, just very very quickly, 666 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 1: I saw a couple comments in here. Let's see where 667 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: did it go? Dylan said, dilemma Nolan at red hot 668 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 1: Milwaukee too rough outings or Tyler McGill who's lined up 669 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: for a two step with the Washington and Philly at 670 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: City Field. 671 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 3: It's Nola for me, I'm not even thinking about it. 672 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 3: It's Nola. 673 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Nola too. I mean, I get it. 674 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: It's it's it's a hot situation. But like McGill's also 675 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: going up against Philly like there, so there's like you 676 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 1: get the advantage of Washington with McGill for a sub 677 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 1: sub middle ish pitcher and then Philly. Or you just 678 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: go with like a toa Ben pitcher who's got a 679 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: couple you know, rough upcoming matchups, but a great offensive support. 680 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna definitely definitely do that. Another one, uh Cada 681 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: versus Weaver or go brand Herder who just had the 682 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 1: combined or almost combined no hitter who runs it back 683 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: in Baltimore? Do you feel there? 684 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 3: Probably go with Weaver. 685 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 2: I think, like the way the cash is bullpen usage is, 686 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 2: it's a little bit hard to predict. 687 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 3: It's probably you said up most of the time. 688 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 2: But Weaver, I think he's a pretty safe bet to 689 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 2: give you an essay or a win, giving you good 690 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 2: ratios with strikeouts, better team. 691 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 3: I think we ever would be the way I go. 692 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: The home run board. We've had the home run contest 693 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: all season long.

And right now South African G has 700 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 1: a four home run lead with two weeks to go. 701 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 1: Vladimir Guerrero is giving him the eye. Look at that eye. 702 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: He is saying South African G. I'm coming for you, 703 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 1: and I'm bringing an autographed bat because that's what he's 704 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: gonna do. We got a four home run lead over 705 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: Razor Ramon Razor, oh Man b Trot at fifty one. 706 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: Only three are over fifty Wonkee Penglin coming in hot 707 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 1: in top ten with forty six.

I don't know. I don't 712 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 1: know if I've had any I've had. I think I 713 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: have had Raphael Dever's imperpetuity here for a little bit, 714 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: so you can let me know. I don't think I'm 715 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: close to that board, which I know. Our boy Donnie 716 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: is dying for me to get on the board because 717 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,239 Speaker 1: he's got a box of oh crap, what is it? 718 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: The what's the thing that I'm still at thirty three? 719 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 1: He hasn't had a home or this entire time.

I just think 730 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 2: this is going to be a disaster in Colorado tonight 731 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 2: the Diamondbacks. 732 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 3: I put up ten runs again. I think Jock. 733 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 2: Peterson he's been a little bit cold recently, but the 734 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 2: matchup is too good to pass up here. 735 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 1: I'm joining you and I'm going with Christian Walker. Christian 736 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 1: Walker actually has a pretty solid BVP versus big home 737 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: run threat. I'm gonna go with it, so we are 738 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:16,760 Speaker 1: both doing it.
