0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:44.600
<v Speaker 1>because I don't hear that very often from you anymore,

0:01:44.600 --> 0:01:47.720

0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:50.920
<v Speaker 1>Does it make you feel better that I read up

0:01:50.920 --> 0:01:54.360
<v Speaker 1>on some political news today? Greg? I woke up today

0:01:54.480 --> 0:01:57.080
<v Speaker 1>and I got a message from Frank and he's like,

0:01:57.960 --> 0:01:59.880
<v Speaker 1>I know what happened to the debate last night once,

0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:02.400
<v Speaker 1>not only did you sleep well, you woke up to

0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:04.640
<v Speaker 1>great news. Greg. Normally I got a text early the

0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:07.360
<v Speaker 1>morning from Frank it's why didn't you do this? Or

0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:11.040
<v Speaker 1>this sucks or this is wrong? But instead I woke

0:02:11.160 --> 0:02:13.680
<v Speaker 1>up to a nice text. I texted with you. I

0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:16.519
<v Speaker 1>texted with Florio Cardio. Don't text me like oh man.

0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:19.640
<v Speaker 1>He texted me about the debate. It was great. It

0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:21.920
<v Speaker 1>was awesome. And amidst all of that, I sent you

0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:25.000
<v Speaker 1>a thread about Kevin Bigio to help brighten your morning

0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:27.280
<v Speaker 1>having her Cavan. Pretty sure it's Kevin. I've been calling

0:02:27.320 --> 0:02:31.200
<v Speaker 1>him Cavan for a while. Well, let's look that up. Yeah,

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:33.440
<v Speaker 1>we probably should. We'll go look that up for you, No,

0:02:33.440 --> 0:02:39.240
<v Speaker 1>no doubt about it. On the show today on Too twenty,

0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:49.320
<v Speaker 1>of them that went last season. We're gonna talking about

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:53.200
<v Speaker 1>the players that Steamer projects in this season. We'll give

0:02:53.240 --> 0:02:55.840

0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:03.519
<v Speaker 1>a huge show. It all takes place over the next hour.

0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:06.399
<v Speaker 1>Before we get to any of that He's Alex Passano

0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:13.160
<v Speaker 1>with your sports trade news up, team sports grade news update.

0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:19.240
<v Speaker 1>I am Alex Possano with your sports grid news update.

0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Here on the fantasy b f f's in the NFL,

0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:26.799
<v Speaker 1>we may be expecting a playoff structure change. As part

0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:29.799
<v Speaker 1>of a proposed playoff format, only one team from each

0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:32.840
<v Speaker 1>conference would have received a first round five. As now,

0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:37.760
<v Speaker 1>the conferences will expand to seven teams each in the postseason,

0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:40.000
<v Speaker 1>The regular season will be expanded to seven teen games

0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:44.360
<v Speaker 1>per season, and the preseason shortened to three games per team.

0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:46.920
<v Speaker 1>Once again. The proposed playoff format will feature one team

0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:49.640
<v Speaker 1>getting you by for each conference and the league. Sources

0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:53.160
<v Speaker 1>said NFL owners are pushing forward to happen next season.

0:03:53.240 --> 0:03:57.040
<v Speaker 1>This will also include a revised postseason schedule that includes

0:03:57.160 --> 0:03:59.920
<v Speaker 1>six games on wild Card weekend, three on Saturday, and

0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:04.080
<v Speaker 1>three on Sunday. In Major League Baseball, Luis Severino was

0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:07.880
<v Speaker 1>scratched from a scheduled bullpen session on Thursday due to

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:11.360
<v Speaker 1>right forearm soreness. Concerning news for a guy who pitched

0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:14.240
<v Speaker 1>just twelve innings during the two thousand nineteen regular season.

0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:17.520
<v Speaker 1>Yankees manager Aaron Boud noted that the forearm issue dates

0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:22.039
<v Speaker 1>back to Severinos a LCS Game three start against none

0:04:22.080 --> 0:04:25.440
<v Speaker 1>other than the Houston Astros. The twenty year old right

0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:28.000
<v Speaker 1>hander has been shut down from throwing and will see

0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:32.240
<v Speaker 1>a team physician on Friday and in the NBA, Minnesota

0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:36.839
<v Speaker 1>Timber will Center Carl Anthony Towns will remain sidelined indefinitely

0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:39.839
<v Speaker 1>as he continues to recover from a left wrist injury.

0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:42.960
<v Speaker 1>Coach Ryan Saunders sold report as that team held Towns

0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:45.520
<v Speaker 1>out of his first practice after the All Star break

0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:48.240
<v Speaker 1>on Wednesday. Saunders said Towns will miss upcoming games, but

0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:51.320
<v Speaker 1>did not specify how many. Big Cat is averaging a

0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:53.520
<v Speaker 1>career best twenty six point five points and ten point

0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:56.520
<v Speaker 1>eight rebounds per game this season. Minnesota returns to action

0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:59.800
<v Speaker 1>on Friday home against the Boston Celtics. You got a

0:04:59.800 --> 0:05:02.920
<v Speaker 1>full at NHL college troops and NBA games making their

0:05:02.920 --> 0:05:04.480
<v Speaker 1>return from the All Star breaks, so you want to

0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:07.080
<v Speaker 1>consider the Miami Heat visiting the Atlanta Hawks. Hawks are

0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:09.560
<v Speaker 1>your six point home dogs in this one. The total

0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:13.760
<v Speaker 1>is to nine. Also, the Houston Rockets visit the Golden

0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:16.160
<v Speaker 1>State Warriors. Rockets here nine and a half point favorites.

0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:19.599
<v Speaker 1>The total is two thirty three. I'm Alex Fasano, and

0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:22.080
<v Speaker 1>this has been your sports grid news update. Now back

0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:25.800
<v Speaker 1>to the fantasy BFFs. Alright, nice job today, Alex, better

0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:28.640
<v Speaker 1>than yesterday, I'll being honest, a much better update today,

0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:32.760
<v Speaker 1>doing a great job. We didn't get any NASCAR updates.

0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:35.640
<v Speaker 1>It was a good update everything that we need a

0:05:35.680 --> 0:05:38.719
<v Speaker 1>little basketball, a little base to get Louis Severino in

0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:41.320
<v Speaker 1>there for you guys. You know you bring up Louise Severino,

0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:43.120
<v Speaker 1>and I'm glad you did because that you lead it

0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:45.360
<v Speaker 1>with the right stuff today. I I thought it was

0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:47.360
<v Speaker 1>a great job, and I think we need to lead

0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:50.240
<v Speaker 1>off with the right stuff as well, Frank, So we

0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:53.760
<v Speaker 1>have to be here before we get into two. We

0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:59.520
<v Speaker 1>gotta talk about Louise Severino, who unfortunately is hurt again.

0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:10.520
<v Speaker 1>Remember the conversation we had dum dam dum dump but

0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:15.960
<v Speaker 1>damp Hey, Alex, remember the thing Frank made with Luis

0:06:15.960 --> 0:06:19.400
<v Speaker 1>Savorino on it. You want to just all right, we

0:06:19.440 --> 0:06:21.719
<v Speaker 1>have a song, we have the the graphic with him.

0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:31.760
<v Speaker 1>That's ah, here you go. We do one more time,

0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:34.720
<v Speaker 1>We do one more time. Well, I want to feel better.

0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:46.280
<v Speaker 1>It's a race. The last thirty seconds and day that

0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:49.039
<v Speaker 1>was your fatost moment of the day, brought to you

0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:53.320
<v Speaker 1>by your fantasy BFFs Luis Severino, Greg another one bites

0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:56.280
<v Speaker 1>the dust just like that, he fades to black. Lui

0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:59.200
<v Speaker 1>sa Vorino has forum shorts, as Alex told you about.

0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:03.400
<v Speaker 1>And unfortunately, Yank, he's have no idea the severity of it.

0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:07.719
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna take some anti inflammatory meds. No, uh, he's

0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:09.720
<v Speaker 1>not gonna have any other tests, which he was stupid.

0:07:09.840 --> 0:07:11.320
<v Speaker 1>He was gonna see the doctor and then he wasn't

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:13.600
<v Speaker 1>seeing the doctor. Now he's seeing the doctor again. You

0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:16.160
<v Speaker 1>know what this has written all over it, Frank, Does

0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:20.440
<v Speaker 1>it start with uh t and and and with an honor?

0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:23.520
<v Speaker 1>It might, yes, But I was talking about the way

0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:26.960
<v Speaker 1>that the Yankees are like diagnosing this. It rise with

0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:30.560
<v Speaker 1>j E T S Jets, Jets, Jets. Come on, Craig,

0:07:30.800 --> 0:07:33.280
<v Speaker 1>don't put the Yankees in the same conversation as the Jets.

0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:35.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not. I'm putting the same conversation as the Mets.

0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:38.280
<v Speaker 1>Rhymes with the Jets, That's what it makes sense, right, Well,

0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:39.920
<v Speaker 1>the Jets kind of had an interesting year in terms

0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:42.200
<v Speaker 1>of injuries. Remember when I think it was other Cinder,

0:07:42.520 --> 0:07:44.680
<v Speaker 1>one of their star pitchers, and regard Wheeler de Graham

0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:46.960
<v Speaker 1>was hurt and it was like this, we had some

0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:48.440
<v Speaker 1>stories and he was seeing the doctor that he wasn't

0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:50.400
<v Speaker 1>seeing the doctor, and he was playing. Then he wasn't playing,

0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:52.840
<v Speaker 1>and we killed them. Floria was here and we sat

0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:56.920
<v Speaker 1>here killing them, and rightfully so, because he was one

0:07:56.960 --> 0:07:58.760
<v Speaker 1>of the most important pieces on the team, and we're like,

0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:02.160
<v Speaker 1>what are you doing? Let see the damn doctor. And

0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:04.880
<v Speaker 1>that's how I feel about this with Luis every Now.

0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:08.840
<v Speaker 1>He heard himself form soreness after Game three of the ALCS.

0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:11.480
<v Speaker 1>He was cleared and healthy enough that he was going

0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:14.680
<v Speaker 1>to pitch in Game seven of the ALCS if it

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:19.160
<v Speaker 1>went that far. We are now November December January, four

0:08:19.280 --> 0:08:22.680
<v Speaker 1>months past that, and he has the same soreness. He

0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:24.760
<v Speaker 1>underwent an m r I November and then m r

0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:28.080
<v Speaker 1>I earlier this month. No issues, but something is wrong

0:08:28.400 --> 0:08:31.320
<v Speaker 1>in that forearm because you can't throw a damn change up.

0:08:32.200 --> 0:08:36.240
<v Speaker 1>This is bad, Frank, really really bad, and it's bad

0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:39.800
<v Speaker 1>for maybe everybody not named the Tampa Bay Rays. Let's

0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:41.840
<v Speaker 1>go with that, because it's bad for the Yankees, it's

0:08:41.840 --> 0:08:44.520
<v Speaker 1>bad for Yankee fans, it's bad for fantasy baseball. Let's

0:08:44.520 --> 0:08:47.839
<v Speaker 1>be honest man, We've already seen other starting pitchers drop

0:08:47.880 --> 0:08:51.160
<v Speaker 1>off the board due to injury. James Paxton another Yankee

0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:54.640
<v Speaker 1>who apparently was dealing with a back injury late last

0:08:54.679 --> 0:08:57.839
<v Speaker 1>season during the postseason, Did they just think that these

0:08:57.880 --> 0:09:00.360
<v Speaker 1>guys were gonna, you know, sleep all off season and

0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:02.120
<v Speaker 1>rest up and that they were just going to come

0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:07.120
<v Speaker 1>back to healthy. Why wasn't this addressed in or at

0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:09.680
<v Speaker 1>least in early You just thought that they were gonna

0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:11.760
<v Speaker 1>show up pitchers and catchers and these guys were just

0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:14.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna be perfectly fine. It doesn't work that way. So

0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:17.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Based on everything that happened last year

0:09:17.880 --> 0:09:20.559
<v Speaker 1>with the Yankees, all the injuries that they suffered, they

0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:25.680
<v Speaker 1>basically cleaned out the training staff and same old Yankees

0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 1>from last year. I mean, it's it's crazy right now

0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:31.480
<v Speaker 1>with these injuries. But again from a fantasy perspective, that's

0:09:31.480 --> 0:09:35.319
<v Speaker 1>just another top twenty starting pitcher that's gonna drop way

0:09:35.360 --> 0:09:37.360
<v Speaker 1>down draft boards, and rightfully so, because you have no

0:09:37.400 --> 0:09:40.480
<v Speaker 1>idea what's going on right now. Carlos Carrasco earlier today

0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:43.120
<v Speaker 1>heard his leg. The guy is on crutches. He was

0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:45.640
<v Speaker 1>a top thirties starting pitcher being drafted. We already lost

0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:48.360
<v Speaker 1>Paxton as well. So look at this. We're a week

0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:52.560
<v Speaker 1>into pictures and catchers, Greg and already we've lost, you know,

0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:56.600
<v Speaker 1>potentially three starting pitchers. Yeah, it's crazy, it's insane. Jose

0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:58.640
<v Speaker 1>here has also heard his foot today, you know your

0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:02.640
<v Speaker 1>number one third basement as you now, by the way, yep,

0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:05.800
<v Speaker 1>which is how we'll get into a nice transition that

0:10:05.880 --> 0:10:09.760
<v Speaker 1>he did. Um. But Luis Severino, James Paxton, obviously, Domingo

0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Harman is suspended. It's incredibly, incredibly frustrating, incredibly frustrating. There's

0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:16.800
<v Speaker 1>not even March first, and these are the injuries, and

0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Yankees are dealing with ready heavy favorites to at least

0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:21.960
<v Speaker 1>heavy favorites to win the a L get to the

0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:23.960
<v Speaker 1>World serious only behind the Dodgers to win it all.

0:10:25.600 --> 0:10:27.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm happy you brought up the just the betting odds

0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:29.880
<v Speaker 1>real quick, Greig, because the regular season win total for

0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:32.040
<v Speaker 1>the Yankees is one oh one and a half. And

0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:33.880
<v Speaker 1>I understand they won a hundred games last year with

0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:36.120
<v Speaker 1>everybody banged up, and they added Garrett Cole to the mix.

0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:38.360
<v Speaker 1>There's some heavy juice on the over right now minus

0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:40.319
<v Speaker 1>one two. I am not going to bet against the

0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:42.360
<v Speaker 1>Yankees personally, because it just wouldn't surprise me if they

0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:44.840
<v Speaker 1>go over this number. But if you are worried about

0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:48.240
<v Speaker 1>the injuries to Severino and James Paxton and the entire

0:10:48.280 --> 0:10:50.560
<v Speaker 1>pitching staff, you're getting good money on the under right

0:10:50.559 --> 0:10:52.320
<v Speaker 1>now at plus one oh five. If that's something you

0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:55.760
<v Speaker 1>are interested in, I would say George Montgomery is virtually

0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:58.640
<v Speaker 1>a lock for the rotation at this point. Craig assuming

0:10:58.679 --> 0:11:01.320
<v Speaker 1>he's healthy because again he doesn't pitched much over the

0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:04.000
<v Speaker 1>past couple of seasons. Um and we'll see how they

0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:05.880
<v Speaker 1>round out that rotation. Jay Happ is going to be

0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:09.000
<v Speaker 1>in there as well. They might go with an opener strategy.

0:11:09.080 --> 0:11:11.800
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you no go with a Jonathan the Wise, It

0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:14.880
<v Speaker 1>good to a Chad Green something like that. But yeah,

0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:17.520
<v Speaker 1>there's a few other guys vying for that spot. Chad bettis,

0:11:17.640 --> 0:11:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Nick Tropiano. We'll see what the Yankees do, but ultimately

0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:22.800
<v Speaker 1>it sucks for them and it sucks for Fantasy baseball.

0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:27.200
<v Speaker 1>Greg another twenty top twenty starting pitcher. Following off the board,

0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:31.079
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna talk twenty here on to twenty. Before any

0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:33.079
<v Speaker 1>of that, we're gonna check in with Farrell, who's live

0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:59.880
<v Speaker 1>of energy. It's lit, it's packed. It's uh got the

0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:02.400
<v Speaker 1>feel of a Mayweather McGregor. It's got the feel of

0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:04.839
<v Speaker 1>a Mayweather packy out. It's got the feel of a

0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:07.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, a heavyweight Championship of the World with Wilder

0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:11.280
<v Speaker 1>and Fury. There's a great atmosphere. People are checking in.

0:13:11.480 --> 0:13:15.439
<v Speaker 1>The MGM is packed, uh, and it is venom. It

0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:18.000
<v Speaker 1>is no joke here. If you're not ready to dance,

0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:20.320
<v Speaker 1>you will be stepped on like a bug. I've been

0:13:20.360 --> 0:13:23.160
<v Speaker 1>to over a hundred title fights and here we go again.

0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:24.760
<v Speaker 1>I know all these people. It's great that I have

0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:26.600
<v Speaker 1>the juice here that I've had over the years. It's

0:13:26.600 --> 0:13:30.120
<v Speaker 1>great to have sports Grid here, and uh, it's exciting

0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:33.000
<v Speaker 1>to have the network here for our first fight on

0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:36.560
<v Speaker 1>sports Grid and all of our partners and everyone included

0:13:36.559 --> 0:13:41.079
<v Speaker 1>in that including Pluto, Zumo, Stir, YouTube and um Our

0:13:41.200 --> 0:13:45.640
<v Speaker 1>Radio partners, Fantasy Sports, Radio, Fantasy Sports Network, tune in,

0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:50.280
<v Speaker 1>I heart Premier. Everything is just fantastic. We're lit. I'm jack.

0:13:50.400 --> 0:13:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm ready. Not only that, We're gonna do two great

0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:54.920
<v Speaker 1>shows today Coast to Coast and in Game Live, and

0:13:54.960 --> 0:13:56.640
<v Speaker 1>then we're going to the hockey game tonight and I'm

0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:59.199
<v Speaker 1>hoping to get in a fist fight. Now. Will be awesome.

0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:00.559
<v Speaker 1>If you get a fist fight. I would have put

0:14:00.720 --> 0:14:03.200
<v Speaker 1>that on in Gay Live rather than you know, seeing

0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Gabe like that. Like I said, you're a fist fight

0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:08.720
<v Speaker 1>while you're watching the veiggat nights like that would be

0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:11.200
<v Speaker 1>an ideal situation for me. It's gonna be a great game.

0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:13.520
<v Speaker 1>It's Tampa Bay. They won eleven in a row against

0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:15.760
<v Speaker 1>the Knights, who are getting hot. They made some deals.

0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:18.520
<v Speaker 1>They got Alec Martinez from the Kings. They're making a

0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:20.560
<v Speaker 1>push for the playoffs. They've been a playoff team. They

0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:22.760
<v Speaker 1>went to the Stanley Cup Finals, went back to the playoffs,

0:14:22.760 --> 0:14:25.240
<v Speaker 1>got beat. Uh. They mean business here. They lost five

0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:27.800
<v Speaker 1>in a row. They fired Galant. They are no joke.

0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:31.600
<v Speaker 1>Foley's the owner. He's like patting the general. Uh. It's

0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:34.600
<v Speaker 1>an electric atmosphere at that arena. Team Mobile for hockey

0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:36.600
<v Speaker 1>unequaled in the league. I've been in the league for

0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:39.040
<v Speaker 1>over thirty years. I've never seen anything like going to

0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:41.480
<v Speaker 1>a night's game. It's gonna be exciting. But the fight

0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:43.680
<v Speaker 1>at the Grand Garden Arena on Saturday night on pay

0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:46.280
<v Speaker 1>per view on Fox, the Fox App, Fox pay per View,

0:14:46.280 --> 0:14:49.200
<v Speaker 1>and ESPN Plus pay per View is gonna be fantastic.

0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:52.160
<v Speaker 1>The first fight was incredible at Stables in Lipstick City.

0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:54.720
<v Speaker 1>Maffi and I were there for that, and the twelfth round,

0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:57.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll never forget it when Wilder knocked him down and

0:14:57.080 --> 0:14:58.840
<v Speaker 1>not only knocked him out but hit him with a

0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:01.400
<v Speaker 1>left hook that even even more damage. And then when

0:15:01.400 --> 0:15:04.040
<v Speaker 1>Fury somehow got up, by the grace of God, we

0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:06.880
<v Speaker 1>know what happened. Wilder kept beating his ass like no

0:15:06.920 --> 0:15:10.320
<v Speaker 1>one's business, and it was absolutely phenomenal that the guy

0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:12.160
<v Speaker 1>was able to withstand all of it and finished the

0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 1>fight and then get a draw because he had won

0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:16.760
<v Speaker 1>about ten rounds in boxing points world, but in terms

0:15:16.800 --> 0:15:19.320
<v Speaker 1>of knockouts, ninth and twelve couldn't take it away from Wilder.

0:15:19.360 --> 0:15:22.000
<v Speaker 1>So here we go again. It's gonna be great Saturday night.

0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:25.240
<v Speaker 1>That place will be absolutely shocked and I mean to

0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:27.400
<v Speaker 1>tell you, it'll be rolling in that building, and it

0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:29.720
<v Speaker 1>will be loud and crazy, and it'll be all kinds

0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:32.160
<v Speaker 1>of smoke show hotties and celebrities and movie stars, and

0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:34.000
<v Speaker 1>half of them are gonna want to sleep with me.

0:15:34.400 --> 0:15:36.480
<v Speaker 1>It's awesome. And he won't be able to sleep with

0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:39.680
<v Speaker 1>any of them, which is makes it that much worse.

0:15:39.760 --> 0:15:42.520
<v Speaker 1>All Right, you mentioned wild there, of course Antison Fury

0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:45.040
<v Speaker 1>Saturday night, and he's over the first fight. I had

0:15:45.120 --> 0:15:48.240
<v Speaker 1>rided Scottie that in the second fight that the loser

0:15:48.280 --> 0:15:51.239
<v Speaker 1>has thirty days to declare a rematch. Is that true?

0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:55.080
<v Speaker 1>It is Drew greg and I think that that is bunk.

0:15:55.880 --> 0:15:58.360
<v Speaker 1>We've heard a Fury in bed say he wants to

0:15:58.440 --> 0:16:01.360
<v Speaker 1>retire when he beat It's Wilder. First of all, I

0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:03.920
<v Speaker 1>don't think that's happening. It might, it might very well.

0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:06.360
<v Speaker 1>He fought a great fight. I will say this much.

0:16:06.360 --> 0:16:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Fury is not afraid of him. I don't want to

0:16:09.040 --> 0:16:12.880
<v Speaker 1>see the third fight, frankly, unless this fight is so phenomenal,

0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:15.600
<v Speaker 1>it's so incredible, because it's never as good the second

0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:18.480
<v Speaker 1>time around. You thought she was hot, the second time around,

0:16:18.520 --> 0:16:21.080
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't as good. Right, here's the deal. Every time

0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:24.640
<v Speaker 1>I've seen fights. I saw Paty I'll fight Marquess five times.

0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:26.480
<v Speaker 1>I talked about it on the Froll on the Bench

0:16:26.560 --> 0:16:30.240
<v Speaker 1>podcast on Fantasy Sports Radio, and I said, you know,

0:16:30.360 --> 0:16:33.040
<v Speaker 1>after a while three, four or five, I'm bored with it.

0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:35.480
<v Speaker 1>I was sitting there at those fights, going they're good fights.

0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:37.240
<v Speaker 1>But why am I doing this for a fourth and

0:16:37.360 --> 0:16:40.360
<v Speaker 1>fifth time twice with this one. If it lives up

0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:42.320
<v Speaker 1>to the hype, if it lives up to the great

0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:45.359
<v Speaker 1>first fight, where it was ten rounds of Fury dominating

0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:48.680
<v Speaker 1>in points, dominating and boxing, getting in his head, sticking

0:16:48.680 --> 0:16:51.720
<v Speaker 1>out his tongue, wagging his tongue, laughing at him, mocking him,

0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:53.720
<v Speaker 1>and then getting knocked down in the ninth and twelve

0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:57.120
<v Speaker 1>with vicious right hands and a left cross. That was

0:16:57.160 --> 0:17:00.400
<v Speaker 1>a great fight. Equal that fight. Live up to that

0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:03.160
<v Speaker 1>fight again, be better than that fight, then I'll change

0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:05.480
<v Speaker 1>my mind and say trilogy, bring it on. Until then,

0:17:05.840 --> 0:17:08.800
<v Speaker 1>this will be enough for me. This will determine who

0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:11.280
<v Speaker 1>is the heavyweight champion in the world. I think it's Wilder.

0:17:11.520 --> 0:17:13.800
<v Speaker 1>In fact, I'm betting that he'll knock him out this time.

0:17:13.800 --> 0:17:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Flush this time he'll knock him out, and he won't

0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:19.960
<v Speaker 1>get up. They'll carry him out on a wheelbarrel. Well, Scott,

0:17:20.000 --> 0:17:21.520
<v Speaker 1>that eliminates one of the questions I was about to

0:17:21.560 --> 0:17:23.520
<v Speaker 1>ask you, is which way you're leaning with this fight?

0:17:23.600 --> 0:17:26.520
<v Speaker 1>The Vandal Sports book has this basically even it's minus

0:17:26.560 --> 0:17:28.639
<v Speaker 1>wan oh wait for Wilder, minus want to wait for

0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:30.840
<v Speaker 1>Tyson Fury as well. I did want to ask you,

0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:33.280
<v Speaker 1>did you think that the first fight should have been

0:17:33.320 --> 0:17:35.040
<v Speaker 1>a tie? Because I agree with you it seemed like

0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Fury was dominating the entire time, but the way that

0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Whilder knocked him out late, I was okay with that

0:17:40.600 --> 0:17:43.879
<v Speaker 1>decision personally. Were you okay with that decision? And is

0:17:43.880 --> 0:17:47.040
<v Speaker 1>this the most anticipated fight? You mentioned McGregor Mayweather? Is

0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:50.879
<v Speaker 1>this the most anticipated boxing match since then? Yeah? I

0:17:50.920 --> 0:17:53.600
<v Speaker 1>think it is. But I think that fight was bigger

0:17:53.880 --> 0:17:56.399
<v Speaker 1>without his doubt, and so is Mayweather packy out bigger,

0:17:56.400 --> 0:17:58.199
<v Speaker 1>But it didn't live up to it. It was an

0:17:58.200 --> 0:18:00.679
<v Speaker 1>absolute joke. That was the worst fight ever. Aw So

0:18:00.720 --> 0:18:03.439
<v Speaker 1>I'll say this, um, Frank, I agree with you that,

0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:06.240
<v Speaker 1>uh you know, And I said Fury dominated the fight

0:18:06.280 --> 0:18:09.719
<v Speaker 1>in points in ten rounds. And we were there and

0:18:09.760 --> 0:18:12.520
<v Speaker 1>I was sitting in five rows from the ring and

0:18:12.920 --> 0:18:14.879
<v Speaker 1>I thought the whole night, I'm like, this guy's winning

0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:17.080
<v Speaker 1>this fight. He's gonna win this fight. And then in

0:18:17.119 --> 0:18:19.760
<v Speaker 1>the ninth round, uh, you know, he got knocked down,

0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:21.960
<v Speaker 1>got up, no problem, kept going in the twelve when

0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:24.640
<v Speaker 1>he got hit, when he got hammered with that right

0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:26.320
<v Speaker 1>and the left coming down, he hit him with a

0:18:26.520 --> 0:18:28.399
<v Speaker 1>right when he was tipping over like a tree. On

0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:30.480
<v Speaker 1>the way down, he said, your mother wapp with a

0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:33.680
<v Speaker 1>left cross across his face, and his face snapped off

0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:35.439
<v Speaker 1>and he hit the ground, his eyes rolling back in

0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:38.480
<v Speaker 1>his head. I thought it was lights out. The fat

0:18:38.560 --> 0:18:42.439
<v Speaker 1>lady was singing good night Irene. All of a sudden,

0:18:42.480 --> 0:18:44.879
<v Speaker 1>God peels him off. The campus guy gets up, but

0:18:44.920 --> 0:18:47.920
<v Speaker 1>then he got even more abuse. He took so many

0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:50.159
<v Speaker 1>shots for the next two and a half minutes I

0:18:50.160 --> 0:18:52.560
<v Speaker 1>couldn't even believe he was stood it. And all I

0:18:52.600 --> 0:18:55.440
<v Speaker 1>have to say is, when they do it again, I think,

0:18:55.480 --> 0:18:57.480
<v Speaker 1>you know he's gonna do the same strategy. He's a

0:18:57.480 --> 0:19:00.600
<v Speaker 1>better boxer, he's a better points fighter, he's a better jabber,

0:19:00.640 --> 0:19:03.639
<v Speaker 1>he's a better move fighter. He does the little jabs

0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:05.400
<v Speaker 1>and then hit you with a jab, a little drop

0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:07.960
<v Speaker 1>step drop step jab, drop step jab and a a little

0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:09.359
<v Speaker 1>fake like he's kind of hit you and then he

0:19:09.440 --> 0:19:12.720
<v Speaker 1>hits you. And Wilder doesn't do that. Wilder doesn't box.

0:19:12.840 --> 0:19:16.240
<v Speaker 1>He's not a points fighter. He is a mistake fighter.

0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:18.600
<v Speaker 1>The minute you make a mistake, he throws a bomb

0:19:18.600 --> 0:19:20.919
<v Speaker 1>that knocks your head off. And that's all there is

0:19:20.960 --> 0:19:23.919
<v Speaker 1>to it. I've said this before. Tyson eliminated people in

0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:25.600
<v Speaker 1>the first and second round because he wanted to go

0:19:25.640 --> 0:19:27.560
<v Speaker 1>to dinner and get some leg and go to the

0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:31.160
<v Speaker 1>strip club. When Wilder does it, he waits for your mistake.

0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:33.320
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't care if it's in the seventh, tenth, twelve.

0:19:33.560 --> 0:19:35.720
<v Speaker 1>He waits for the mistake and get you. Tyson wanted

0:19:35.760 --> 0:19:37.880
<v Speaker 1>to go to dinner after the first round. He wanted

0:19:37.880 --> 0:19:40.000
<v Speaker 1>to get out of the building and without gun shots.

0:19:40.040 --> 0:19:41.600
<v Speaker 1>I've been there for that too. In the middle of

0:19:41.680 --> 0:19:45.000
<v Speaker 1>the casino. He was a different kind of maller. This

0:19:45.000 --> 0:19:47.800
<v Speaker 1>guy throws bomb. That's why they call him Bomb Squad.

0:19:48.040 --> 0:19:50.119
<v Speaker 1>I think he'll knock him out. He did it twice.

0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:52.639
<v Speaker 1>Now he's here to finish the deal and he means it.

0:19:52.760 --> 0:19:55.600
<v Speaker 1>I'll just talk about Fury winning in two rounds is uh,

0:19:55.640 --> 0:19:58.280
<v Speaker 1>that's a catastrophe. Waiting to happen. If he knocks him

0:19:58.280 --> 0:19:59.720
<v Speaker 1>out in the second round, I'll walk out of the

0:19:59.800 --> 0:20:03.040
<v Speaker 1>MG naked into the valet. Great for anyone who didn't

0:20:03.040 --> 0:20:05.720
<v Speaker 1>see the Wilder Fury first fight. The only way that

0:20:05.760 --> 0:20:08.000
<v Speaker 1>I could describe this and you'll be able to appreciate

0:20:08.000 --> 0:20:10.439
<v Speaker 1>this is the Undertaker gift. Man. If you've seen the

0:20:10.480 --> 0:20:12.760
<v Speaker 1>Undertaker Gift, you seen in a million times. He just

0:20:12.800 --> 0:20:15.480
<v Speaker 1>stood up from the dead. That was Tyson Fury Man

0:20:15.560 --> 0:20:18.399
<v Speaker 1>like this guy had no business getting up after the

0:20:18.440 --> 0:20:20.960
<v Speaker 1>way he got knocked out. The only way to describe

0:20:20.960 --> 0:20:24.240
<v Speaker 1>it is Undertaker seriously called great call by you, Frank.

0:20:24.320 --> 0:20:26.399
<v Speaker 1>I had no doubt about it. I've heard that before.

0:20:27.080 --> 0:20:29.879
<v Speaker 1>It was one of the great fights. I'll never forget

0:20:29.960 --> 0:20:33.800
<v Speaker 1>leaving the Staples Center in Lipstick City and heading to

0:20:33.840 --> 0:20:35.840
<v Speaker 1>the airport because we had a red eye, so we

0:20:35.840 --> 0:20:38.800
<v Speaker 1>saw him get dropped. The fight ends, We hear the decision,

0:20:38.800 --> 0:20:41.560
<v Speaker 1>and then we drove Maffi and I a hundred miles

0:20:41.640 --> 0:20:44.160
<v Speaker 1>an hour in the uber. I tell the uber driver,

0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:47.680
<v Speaker 1>the faster you go, the more money I'm gonna give you,

0:20:47.880 --> 0:20:50.080
<v Speaker 1>and my boy was doing a buck on the l

0:20:50.119 --> 0:20:52.040
<v Speaker 1>A Freeways. We got to the airport in time and

0:20:52.080 --> 0:20:53.760
<v Speaker 1>flew home. In the entire flight home, we talked about

0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:56.080
<v Speaker 1>how great it was, what an experience, because I, you know,

0:20:56.119 --> 0:20:58.159
<v Speaker 1>I've been to so many fights over the years, a million,

0:20:58.560 --> 0:21:01.840
<v Speaker 1>and they don't live up to They're never like fights

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:04.440
<v Speaker 1>that are so memorable and fantastic that you talk about

0:21:04.480 --> 0:21:06.719
<v Speaker 1>them the whole way home or the next day, or

0:21:06.960 --> 0:21:09.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, text the guy a week later and say,

0:21:09.760 --> 0:21:11.159
<v Speaker 1>can you believe we were at that fighter? When they,

0:21:11.160 --> 0:21:13.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, show the fight again a second time, can

0:21:13.200 --> 0:21:15.440
<v Speaker 1>you believe we were there. That's only happened a few

0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:18.080
<v Speaker 1>times in my career, but I've seen over ninety title fights,

0:21:18.080 --> 0:21:20.240
<v Speaker 1>so that was one of them that Maffi and I

0:21:20.280 --> 0:21:21.800
<v Speaker 1>were talking all the way to the airport and all

0:21:21.800 --> 0:21:23.919
<v Speaker 1>the way home and a few days later about it too.

0:21:24.000 --> 0:21:26.800
<v Speaker 1>But good call by you, one undertaker. I love wrestling.

0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:31.200
<v Speaker 1>I used to uh watch Bruno Sammartino and eat doritos

0:21:31.200 --> 0:21:33.359
<v Speaker 1>and smoke bong rips and stead on my couch all day.

0:21:33.400 --> 0:21:35.199
<v Speaker 1>When I was a kid watching wrestling. My dad used

0:21:35.240 --> 0:21:37.720
<v Speaker 1>to say, You're worthless, You're gonna be a loser and

0:21:37.760 --> 0:21:41.040
<v Speaker 1>a just an absolute felon. You have nothing in life.

0:21:41.240 --> 0:21:44.120
<v Speaker 1>I used to say, screw you. Dude, you have no idea.

0:21:44.160 --> 0:21:46.720
<v Speaker 1>What you're talking about. Wrestling is awesome. I hate you.

0:21:46.840 --> 0:21:49.760
<v Speaker 1>Get out of my face. I ended up winning because

0:21:49.800 --> 0:21:52.199
<v Speaker 1>he became a fan of the show too. Beat his

0:21:52.280 --> 0:21:57.520
<v Speaker 1>ass to so so it's boxing Coacht the Coast covers

0:21:57.560 --> 0:22:00.760
<v Speaker 1>your way in about thirty five ad minutes from now.

0:22:00.960 --> 0:22:04.119
<v Speaker 1>Any idea who have been guests are all today's program, Scotty,

0:22:04.160 --> 0:22:05.719
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea, but I wanted to say one

0:22:05.760 --> 0:22:08.120
<v Speaker 1>thing for the fans, to be honest. Because of Sports Grid.

0:22:08.480 --> 0:22:11.720
<v Speaker 1>We we came out here, my boy Ryan and Carver High.

0:22:11.840 --> 0:22:14.320
<v Speaker 1>We had a tremendous amount of stress. We had to

0:22:14.440 --> 0:22:17.040
<v Speaker 1>carry five pounds of equipment. We had to set up

0:22:17.040 --> 0:22:18.840
<v Speaker 1>for the first time ever to do TV. We had

0:22:18.840 --> 0:22:21.000
<v Speaker 1>to do all this testing. We had to set up wires,

0:22:21.040 --> 0:22:24.040
<v Speaker 1>set up plug set up this audio video, everything else,

0:22:24.160 --> 0:22:26.199
<v Speaker 1>and they pulled it off. The only reason I'm on

0:22:26.240 --> 0:22:29.080
<v Speaker 1>your show today is to prove that we could do

0:22:29.119 --> 0:22:31.520
<v Speaker 1>it and set it up right and get on the air.

0:22:31.760 --> 0:22:34.320
<v Speaker 1>We've done it. We've accomplished it. Now for the next

0:22:34.320 --> 0:22:36.479
<v Speaker 1>two shows from four to six and seven and nine

0:22:36.520 --> 0:22:38.360

0:22:43.480 --> 0:22:45.639

0:24:24.800 --> 0:24:27.680
<v Speaker 1>seen before. Located both in the heart of New York

0:24:27.720 --> 0:24:30.720
<v Speaker 1>City and inside the FanDuel Sports Book at the Metal Ends,

0:24:30.960 --> 0:24:34.080
<v Speaker 1>sports Crade's live eighteen hours a day here to serve

0:24:34.119 --> 0:24:38.560
<v Speaker 1>you the fanatic. This is Sports Grade. Get off the

0:24:38.640 --> 0:24:46.959
<v Speaker 1>grid all right for our coast coast. You heard at

0:24:47.000 --> 0:24:50.320
<v Speaker 1>four pm Eastern time one pm Pacific he is live

0:24:50.600 --> 0:24:54.720
<v Speaker 1>in Las Vegas, Nevada out there for sports Grade. But

0:24:54.880 --> 0:24:57.280
<v Speaker 1>over the next twenty five minutes or so, we'll talk

0:24:57.320 --> 0:24:59.720
<v Speaker 1>about some more major league baseball stuff before we throw

0:24:59.760 --> 0:25:02.520
<v Speaker 1>it over to Scottie Farrell. All right, let's get into

0:25:02.560 --> 0:25:05.480
<v Speaker 1>the players last year. Frank, there are nine of them.

0:25:05.520 --> 0:25:09.639
<v Speaker 1>Can you name them all? I can, because of course

0:25:09.760 --> 0:25:12.359
<v Speaker 1>I help you make the rundown in the and the graphics, Greg.

0:25:12.800 --> 0:25:14.640
<v Speaker 1>But a few of these names I think would surprise

0:25:14.680 --> 0:25:16.760
<v Speaker 1>people if they're just kind of jumping back into fantasy

0:25:16.760 --> 0:25:19.800
<v Speaker 1>baseball now and reviewing the stats from last year. I

0:25:19.840 --> 0:25:22.560
<v Speaker 1>think one name that definitely stands out who is interesting

0:25:22.560 --> 0:25:25.400
<v Speaker 1>to talk about is Danny Santana. I think another name

0:25:25.520 --> 0:25:28.640
<v Speaker 1>is Jose Ramirez, who's still being drafted in that first

0:25:28.680 --> 0:25:30.680
<v Speaker 1>second round range. You're not really getting a discount on

0:25:30.760 --> 0:25:34.119
<v Speaker 1>Jose Ramirez based on his early season struggles, and I

0:25:34.160 --> 0:25:37.080
<v Speaker 1>agree with you. Actually like Jose a lot, assuming he's healthy,

0:25:37.200 --> 0:25:39.679
<v Speaker 1>because the guy got hit by by a pitch on

0:25:39.760 --> 0:25:42.600
<v Speaker 1>his foot. Today we're talking about Severino getting hurt and

0:25:42.640 --> 0:25:45.600
<v Speaker 1>packs and getting hurt, and of course now Jose Ramirez

0:25:46.320 --> 0:25:48.439
<v Speaker 1>limped off the field with a foot injury, so of

0:25:48.480 --> 0:25:51.680
<v Speaker 1>course we're gonna need healthy legs. Healthy feet for Jose

0:25:52.000 --> 0:25:54.160
<v Speaker 1>if he's going to run again this upcoming season. But

0:25:54.440 --> 0:25:56.040
<v Speaker 1>I think a lot of the names on this list

0:25:56.040 --> 0:26:01.919
<v Speaker 1>greg are not surprising, are almost a spected outside of

0:26:01.960 --> 0:26:05.320
<v Speaker 1>maybe Danny Santana, And you know, I think Jose and

0:26:05.359 --> 0:26:07.280
<v Speaker 1>Mirrors is definitely an interesting name. You're not getting You're

0:26:07.280 --> 0:26:10.320
<v Speaker 1>not getting any discounter value from last year. I leave

0:26:10.359 --> 0:26:13.160
<v Speaker 1>it that lead the list up because you can kind

0:26:13.280 --> 0:26:14.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna talk about some of these guys, right

0:26:14.760 --> 0:26:16.520
<v Speaker 1>like sure, I'm not talking about Ronald We talked a

0:26:16.520 --> 0:26:18.959
<v Speaker 1>lot about the number one overall pick according to you, Frankie.

0:26:19.000 --> 0:26:20.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to talk about Ristian Yelle, number three

0:26:20.920 --> 0:26:23.240
<v Speaker 1>overall pick according to you, Frankie. We talked about that

0:26:23.240 --> 0:26:25.520
<v Speaker 1>a lot as well. Francisco Lindoor, we talked a lot

0:26:25.520 --> 0:26:27.520
<v Speaker 1>about him on this show as a first rounder, seeming

0:26:27.520 --> 0:26:30.040
<v Speaker 1>to go with Trevor story. We've broken him down, oh munch.

0:26:30.240 --> 0:26:31.920
<v Speaker 1>So let's hear rid of all those guys. I want

0:26:31.920 --> 0:26:34.800
<v Speaker 1>to start at the very top here with Jonathan vr

0:26:34.840 --> 0:26:38.280
<v Speaker 1>who led these um crew in steels. He had what

0:26:38.359 --> 0:26:42.800
<v Speaker 1>forty steels, all right, forty stone bases over twenty home runs,

0:26:42.960 --> 0:26:45.639
<v Speaker 1>and I've brought him up to you on yesterday or

0:26:45.720 --> 0:26:47.679
<v Speaker 1>yesterday show, or I think it was one of those

0:26:47.680 --> 0:26:49.480
<v Speaker 1>guys right randomly throughout you. I wasn't supposed to talk

0:26:49.480 --> 0:26:51.880
<v Speaker 1>about him. I think it was during the break. Actually fine,

0:26:52.480 --> 0:26:54.199
<v Speaker 1>so I brought U Johnny VR. I'm like, dude, do

0:26:54.200 --> 0:26:56.480
<v Speaker 1>you eat on Johnny VR? And you signed? And you're

0:26:56.520 --> 0:26:59.880
<v Speaker 1>like no. And because we've already seen what the down

0:27:00.040 --> 0:27:02.960
<v Speaker 1>side is of him, well, last year you go up

0:27:03.000 --> 0:27:05.919
<v Speaker 1>forty steal mass the lead Major League Baseball or lead

0:27:06.560 --> 0:27:09.280
<v Speaker 1>players in Smithlin, Major League Baseball, but forty steels and

0:27:09.359 --> 0:27:12.480
<v Speaker 1>twenty four homers year before thirty five steals to go

0:27:12.560 --> 0:27:15.719
<v Speaker 1>with fourteen homers. Year before that, when everybody's drafting him

0:27:15.720 --> 0:27:17.600
<v Speaker 1>in the second round, well, he had just twenty three

0:27:17.600 --> 0:27:20.919
<v Speaker 1>steels and eleven home runs. We have seen the downside

0:27:21.000 --> 0:27:24.040
<v Speaker 1>of Jonathan VR. Last year was the upside we got

0:27:24.119 --> 0:27:26.240
<v Speaker 1>up there right now. You see right below me the

0:27:26.280 --> 0:27:29.080
<v Speaker 1>Steamer projections from him for this year, where he has

0:27:29.960 --> 0:27:32.480
<v Speaker 1>his projective for thirty three steals to go along with

0:27:32.600 --> 0:27:35.679
<v Speaker 1>seventeen home runs. If he can hit his Steamer of

0:27:35.680 --> 0:27:39.240
<v Speaker 1>projection and hit about two fifty seven, where should he

0:27:39.240 --> 0:27:42.480
<v Speaker 1>be taken in draft rank? I think that he should

0:27:42.640 --> 0:27:45.119
<v Speaker 1>be a third fourth round pick. I don't really have

0:27:45.160 --> 0:27:47.760
<v Speaker 1>a problem with his price, Greig. The problem for me

0:27:47.880 --> 0:27:49.879
<v Speaker 1>lies in the players that are going around him. I

0:27:49.920 --> 0:27:52.400
<v Speaker 1>just like those players more. I like Haavi or Bias more.

0:27:52.440 --> 0:27:55.200
<v Speaker 1>I like could Tell Marte Moore. A lot of people

0:27:55.200 --> 0:27:57.280
<v Speaker 1>are gonna question, what could Tell Marte did from last

0:27:57.359 --> 0:27:59.560
<v Speaker 1>year is a juice ball related If you look at

0:27:59.560 --> 0:28:02.240
<v Speaker 1>can tell Te, he's actually filled out, He's gotten stronger,

0:28:02.359 --> 0:28:05.680
<v Speaker 1>he raised the launch angle, raised the average eggs of velocity.

0:28:05.680 --> 0:28:08.240
<v Speaker 1>He started hitting the ball harder last year as well.

0:28:08.920 --> 0:28:11.119
<v Speaker 1>I like Kessing Hero more than Jonathan VR as well,

0:28:11.200 --> 0:28:13.199
<v Speaker 1>and I think that one's a complete toss up. If

0:28:13.200 --> 0:28:15.320
<v Speaker 1>you liked VR more than Kess and here, I couldn't

0:28:15.359 --> 0:28:18.280
<v Speaker 1>kill you for that. Um. The problem with VR for me,

0:28:18.520 --> 0:28:20.720
<v Speaker 1>and the main reason why I like those players more

0:28:20.760 --> 0:28:23.199
<v Speaker 1>than him, is because I think Jonathan VR has more

0:28:23.240 --> 0:28:26.879
<v Speaker 1>bottom out potential. I think that the floor is lower

0:28:26.920 --> 0:28:29.639
<v Speaker 1>for Jonathan VR than some of these other players, just

0:28:29.720 --> 0:28:32.600
<v Speaker 1>because we've seen it before. We've seen him bottom out

0:28:32.600 --> 0:28:36.080
<v Speaker 1>after being in early round pick where he basically got

0:28:36.080 --> 0:28:38.120
<v Speaker 1>reduced to a bench role. When he was with the

0:28:38.120 --> 0:28:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Milwaukee Brewers, he had a phenomenal season last year. There's

0:28:40.920 --> 0:28:43.560
<v Speaker 1>no doubt about it. The move from Camden Yards to

0:28:44.120 --> 0:28:47.160
<v Speaker 1>Marlin's Park is definitely going to affect his home run output.

0:28:47.440 --> 0:28:50.360
<v Speaker 1>I think the Steamer projection is fair. He's probably gonna

0:28:50.360 --> 0:28:53.080
<v Speaker 1>give you a fifteen and seventeen home runs and probably

0:28:53.080 --> 0:28:55.320
<v Speaker 1>going to give you a thirty to thirty five stone basis.

0:28:55.560 --> 0:28:58.120
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't help you, doesn't hurt you in batting average. He's fine.

0:28:58.440 --> 0:29:00.720
<v Speaker 1>But he's also playing a new position this year as well, Gregg.

0:29:01.000 --> 0:29:04.680
<v Speaker 1>He's playing center field and on FST Craig Miss spoke

0:29:04.680 --> 0:29:06.360
<v Speaker 1>to Jonathan VR. We had an interview a couple of

0:29:06.400 --> 0:29:09.280
<v Speaker 1>weeks ago, and he didn't really seem excited about the

0:29:09.320 --> 0:29:11.440
<v Speaker 1>idea of playing center field. So I almost wonder if

0:29:11.480 --> 0:29:13.360
<v Speaker 1>that's going to affect him at the plate. We've seen

0:29:13.400 --> 0:29:16.080
<v Speaker 1>that happen before with other players. I think that there's

0:29:16.080 --> 0:29:17.800
<v Speaker 1>just a lot of moving parts that there's a very

0:29:17.800 --> 0:29:20.520
<v Speaker 1>low floor for Jonathan VR as well, and because of that,

0:29:20.720 --> 0:29:22.640
<v Speaker 1>I will just target other players that are going in

0:29:22.680 --> 0:29:25.480
<v Speaker 1>his range. But if you want steals, I can't knock

0:29:25.560 --> 0:29:27.840
<v Speaker 1>you for wanting to take him. I think his value

0:29:27.880 --> 0:29:29.920
<v Speaker 1>is fine where it is right now. Would you rather

0:29:30.000 --> 0:29:32.880
<v Speaker 1>have Jonathan Vr? Or with Maryfield. I would rather have

0:29:32.960 --> 0:29:36.440
<v Speaker 1>VR because the power potential is obviously stronger. The stolen

0:29:36.440 --> 0:29:38.280
<v Speaker 1>bases are going to be higher for they are the

0:29:38.320 --> 0:29:43.360
<v Speaker 1>average and lower though they are definitely fair, So there

0:29:43.360 --> 0:29:45.640
<v Speaker 1>are trade offs there. You're probably gonna get more runs

0:29:45.680 --> 0:29:48.840
<v Speaker 1>and more batting average out of WIT Maryfield getting categories

0:29:48.840 --> 0:29:52.680
<v Speaker 1>you need, yes, but stolen bases are also very scarce.

0:29:52.720 --> 0:29:54.520
<v Speaker 1>I think what mary Fields probably gonna give you a

0:29:54.560 --> 0:29:58.160
<v Speaker 1>round twenty and VR could give you as much as forty. Again,

0:29:58.560 --> 0:30:01.760
<v Speaker 1>he's but a fair projection is more closer to thirty five.

0:30:02.280 --> 0:30:04.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll give the trade off of batting average for more

0:30:04.000 --> 0:30:06.200
<v Speaker 1>stolen basis. I'll take VR, right, Johnathan v R going

0:30:06.320 --> 0:30:09.240
<v Speaker 1>in that third, fourth round, somebody you're obviously going to

0:30:09.520 --> 0:30:11.959
<v Speaker 1>going to want to consider at that spot depending on

0:30:11.960 --> 0:30:14.640
<v Speaker 1>how your team shakes out. Let me move on to

0:30:14.880 --> 0:30:16.800
<v Speaker 1>a guy that you and I both like, and I

0:30:16.840 --> 0:30:21.080
<v Speaker 1>think people are off of this guy because it's been

0:30:21.080 --> 0:30:23.880
<v Speaker 1>around for a long time, and that's starling Marte and

0:30:23.880 --> 0:30:27.400
<v Speaker 1>starring Marte for years. Was the guy that we thought

0:30:27.400 --> 0:30:30.600
<v Speaker 1>would catapult in the first round and be this potentially

0:30:30.760 --> 0:30:33.160
<v Speaker 1>thirty five thirty five guy, right like that was the

0:30:33.200 --> 0:30:36.320
<v Speaker 1>idea we're starring Marte, and it never really happened. He

0:30:36.440 --> 0:30:40.760
<v Speaker 1>never really stolen enough bases, he never really hit enough

0:30:40.800 --> 0:30:43.200
<v Speaker 1>home runs. And I think people are a little bit

0:30:44.600 --> 0:30:47.520
<v Speaker 1>board for lack of better term of Starling Marte. He's

0:30:47.520 --> 0:30:51.200
<v Speaker 1>out thirty one years old. He's past that thirty threshold,

0:30:51.200 --> 0:30:53.680
<v Speaker 1>which is just a number. Last year there's twenty five

0:30:54.000 --> 0:30:56.960
<v Speaker 1>stolen bases, the most of these hats in ten where

0:30:56.960 --> 0:31:00.960
<v Speaker 1>he hit and nine on runs. Twenty three home runs

0:31:01.040 --> 0:31:02.840
<v Speaker 1>last year with the juice ball was the most of

0:31:02.920 --> 0:31:06.600
<v Speaker 1>his career. Twenty five steals, It wasn't the most. Sorry

0:31:06.680 --> 0:31:08.880
<v Speaker 1>I read that wrong. I had had three steals and

0:31:08.880 --> 0:31:13.360
<v Speaker 1>twenty He had thirty three steals down five last season.

0:31:13.480 --> 0:31:15.520
<v Speaker 1>He ran way more in team and had more power

0:31:15.520 --> 0:31:18.160
<v Speaker 1>than ever. Last year it's twenty nineteen. That very much

0:31:18.160 --> 0:31:20.640
<v Speaker 1>could be juice ball related. The average, well, it was

0:31:20.680 --> 0:31:23.320
<v Speaker 1>all the way up to two ninety five. Last season.

0:31:23.600 --> 0:31:27.040
<v Speaker 1>That was the highest since twenty sixteen. Starling Marte was

0:31:27.120 --> 0:31:30.080
<v Speaker 1>very good. Now he goes over to Arizona. What should

0:31:30.160 --> 0:31:32.160
<v Speaker 1>be a better lineup. I know people are a bit

0:31:32.160 --> 0:31:34.840
<v Speaker 1>fatigue of Starling Marte, but the steam of rejections has

0:31:34.920 --> 0:31:36.560
<v Speaker 1>him as somebody that you're gonna want to take because

0:31:36.600 --> 0:31:39.680
<v Speaker 1>steaming rejections at twenty four home runs and twenty six steals,

0:31:39.680 --> 0:31:43.440
<v Speaker 1>that almost twenty five with a strong batting average of

0:31:43.640 --> 0:31:48.160
<v Speaker 1>two eighty four. I get it. People are bored Starling Marte.

0:31:48.400 --> 0:31:50.920
<v Speaker 1>This is a guy that I look at like, yeah,

0:31:51.120 --> 0:31:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I definitely want this player. I agree, I want Starling

0:31:54.040 --> 0:31:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Marte as well. I think the biggest hindrance of Starling

0:31:57.240 --> 0:31:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Marte drafting him this year is his price. I mean,

0:31:59.880 --> 0:32:02.640
<v Speaker 1>his ADP over at the NBC in the month of

0:32:02.640 --> 0:32:06.000
<v Speaker 1>February is thirty one. So that's a mid third round

0:32:06.040 --> 0:32:08.560
<v Speaker 1>pick in a twelve team league. That's a borderline second

0:32:08.600 --> 0:32:10.480
<v Speaker 1>third round pick. I've seen him go in the second

0:32:10.520 --> 0:32:13.560
<v Speaker 1>round in in a ton of these fifteen team leagues

0:32:13.680 --> 0:32:16.840
<v Speaker 1>as well. And look, it's a big price to pay,

0:32:16.880 --> 0:32:20.600
<v Speaker 1>but it's someone who's going to give you all five categories, Greg,

0:32:20.680 --> 0:32:23.360
<v Speaker 1>and you're if you want to talk about five category players.

0:32:23.600 --> 0:32:26.000
<v Speaker 1>A lot of those guys go in the first round. Again,

0:32:26.080 --> 0:32:30.960
<v Speaker 1>a Kuna, Christian Yellis, Mike Trout, Francisdor Story. All these

0:32:30.960 --> 0:32:33.040
<v Speaker 1>guys go in the first round. The reason why Charlie

0:32:33.080 --> 0:32:36.120
<v Speaker 1>Marte doesn't is because he is an injury risk. He

0:32:36.120 --> 0:32:38.920
<v Speaker 1>played a hundred and thirty two games last year, the

0:32:39.000 --> 0:32:42.920
<v Speaker 1>year before that seventy seven and twenty seventeen and one

0:32:42.920 --> 0:32:45.240
<v Speaker 1>and twenty sixteen, so you almost have to bake in

0:32:45.240 --> 0:32:47.280
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna miss twenty to thirty games throughout the course

0:32:47.320 --> 0:32:49.400
<v Speaker 1>of the season. But he did that last year. Greg

0:32:49.560 --> 0:32:52.240
<v Speaker 1>still hit twenty three home runs, still sold twenty five

0:32:52.280 --> 0:32:56.120
<v Speaker 1>bases to batting average, He's a career to eighties seven hitter.

0:32:56.800 --> 0:32:59.520
<v Speaker 1>He's a five category player. These guys normally go in

0:32:59.560 --> 0:33:01.800
<v Speaker 1>the first round. Und you're getting him at the at

0:33:01.840 --> 0:33:04.240
<v Speaker 1>the end of the second to early third round. There's

0:33:04.280 --> 0:33:07.160
<v Speaker 1>definitely some injury risk involved, but I have no problem

0:33:07.160 --> 0:33:09.760
<v Speaker 1>taking him where he's going right now. I'm I will

0:33:09.760 --> 0:33:11.400
<v Speaker 1>say this, he's better for Roto than he is for

0:33:11.520 --> 0:33:13.680
<v Speaker 1>points because he doesn't walk very much. He has a

0:33:13.720 --> 0:33:16.520
<v Speaker 1>career four point nine percent walk great, so it doesn't

0:33:16.560 --> 0:33:18.800
<v Speaker 1>have great O b P doesn't have a great I

0:33:18.920 --> 0:33:21.160
<v Speaker 1>at the plate in terms of walking, so it doesn't

0:33:21.160 --> 0:33:23.320
<v Speaker 1>help you as much in a points league. But for Roto,

0:33:23.440 --> 0:33:26.680
<v Speaker 1>where you can get stolen bases without this guy hurting

0:33:26.720 --> 0:33:29.600
<v Speaker 1>your batting average or power, it's a no brainer for me.

0:33:29.600 --> 0:33:32.560
<v Speaker 1>When it comes to Marte. Surprising game on this list fright,

0:33:32.640 --> 0:33:35.680
<v Speaker 1>without question is Danny Santana all of the Texas Rangers.

0:33:35.720 --> 0:33:37.600
<v Speaker 1>He came out and I remember coming up and was like, hey, dude,

0:33:37.960 --> 0:33:39.880
<v Speaker 1>he said that it's pretty hot. Should I pick him up?

0:33:40.000 --> 0:33:43.520
<v Speaker 1>And You're like, no, why would you do that? So

0:33:43.600 --> 0:33:47.840
<v Speaker 1>I didn't, and Danny Santana never well stop being hot.

0:33:48.040 --> 0:33:51.520
<v Speaker 1>He was fantastic all season long. And now Danny Santana

0:33:52.120 --> 0:33:54.320
<v Speaker 1>in the mix to play every single day for the

0:33:54.320 --> 0:33:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Texas Rangers, but no journeyman. So I think questions are fair,

0:33:57.400 --> 0:34:02.760
<v Speaker 1>But Ny Santana went last year? Can he do it again? Man?

0:34:02.880 --> 0:34:05.880
<v Speaker 1>Danny Santana is probably the biggest wild card in fantasy

0:34:05.880 --> 0:34:08.520
<v Speaker 1>baseball stuff coming season. Gregg really came out of nowhere.

0:34:08.600 --> 0:34:10.480
<v Speaker 1>You hit it on the head wind up hitting two

0:34:10.520 --> 0:34:14.239
<v Speaker 1>eighty three with eight home runs and twenty one steals.

0:34:14.440 --> 0:34:16.719
<v Speaker 1>Sounds a lot like the line that's starling Marte is

0:34:16.800 --> 0:34:20.160
<v Speaker 1>projected to give you this upcoming season, and you got

0:34:20.200 --> 0:34:22.200
<v Speaker 1>that from a waiver wire pick up last year in

0:34:22.280 --> 0:34:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Danny Santana. I mean the question you have to ask yourself, Greg,

0:34:25.480 --> 0:34:27.920
<v Speaker 1>and we're gonna try to answer, is can he repeated?

0:34:27.960 --> 0:34:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Can he can he come close to doing that again?

0:34:31.280 --> 0:34:34.239
<v Speaker 1>Similar to Starling Marte doesn't walk all that much four

0:34:34.280 --> 0:34:36.520
<v Speaker 1>point nine percent walk great, but he strikes out a

0:34:36.600 --> 0:34:39.680
<v Speaker 1>lot more than someone like Starling Marte twenty nine and

0:34:39.719 --> 0:34:42.719
<v Speaker 1>a half percent strikeout rate. He has showed a power

0:34:42.800 --> 0:34:46.319
<v Speaker 1>speed combination at times throughout his minor league career back

0:34:46.360 --> 0:34:50.640
<v Speaker 1>in eighteen with the Braves sixteen home runs, twelve stolen bases.

0:34:50.680 --> 0:34:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Earlier in his minor league career he stole a bunch

0:34:52.880 --> 0:34:56.080
<v Speaker 1>of basses as well. I don't know that he's gonna

0:34:56.080 --> 0:34:58.359
<v Speaker 1>go twenty again, Greg, I think he's someone that could

0:34:58.400 --> 0:34:59.880
<v Speaker 1>give you a little bit of power, a little bit

0:34:59.920 --> 0:35:02.600
<v Speaker 1>of speed. I myself would not be projecting him to

0:35:02.640 --> 0:35:07.200
<v Speaker 1>go Maybe a fair projection is, you know, fifteen fifteen

0:35:07.280 --> 0:35:09.960
<v Speaker 1>and Steamers a little bit more optimistic than I am.

0:35:10.080 --> 0:35:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Nineteen home runs, seventeen stolen bases. The second question you

0:35:13.520 --> 0:35:15.080
<v Speaker 1>have to ask is where is he gonna play? Is

0:35:15.120 --> 0:35:16.960
<v Speaker 1>he gonna get in the lineup every single day for

0:35:17.040 --> 0:35:19.439
<v Speaker 1>the Texas Rangers. There was a report that came out

0:35:19.880 --> 0:35:22.279
<v Speaker 1>just the other day that said Nick Slack has an

0:35:22.280 --> 0:35:24.600
<v Speaker 1>opportunity to play in center field for the Texas Rangers.

0:35:24.840 --> 0:35:27.359
<v Speaker 1>He's you know, a top prospect for them, performed well

0:35:27.440 --> 0:35:30.800
<v Speaker 1>last year for the Rangers, And so that's actually hysterical

0:35:31.960 --> 0:35:34.759
<v Speaker 1>because I like Nick Solack. You already still like came

0:35:34.800 --> 0:35:38.959
<v Speaker 1>from No, I don't you know anything Lack? No, so

0:35:39.320 --> 0:35:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Nick Slack. I saw an old tweet of mine from

0:35:43.040 --> 0:35:47.000
<v Speaker 1>three or four years ago. But Nick Slack the Yankees,

0:35:47.760 --> 0:35:51.080
<v Speaker 1>I hope Nick Slack become Brandon Jury. Is that's who

0:35:51.080 --> 0:35:55.040
<v Speaker 1>they traded for? Brandon Jury? Really Nick Slack? Oh yeah,

0:35:55.200 --> 0:35:59.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm kind of excited about Nick Solack with the Texas Rangers. Um,

0:35:59.160 --> 0:36:01.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't mind Any's Antana. I think he's probably more

0:36:01.200 --> 0:36:03.120
<v Speaker 1>of a fifteen fifteen guy with a bad batting average.

0:36:03.120 --> 0:36:05.480
<v Speaker 1>And do a couple more notes on days Antana and

0:36:05.480 --> 0:36:10.719
<v Speaker 1>we'll tell you who we think this year next. Are

0:36:10.719 --> 0:36:13.480

0:36:37.719 --> 0:36:47.040
<v Speaker 1>off the grade. So interesting little not about day Santana,

0:36:47.040 --> 0:36:50.360
<v Speaker 1>which I forgot about. Uh in the early he remember

0:36:50.360 --> 0:36:52.040
<v Speaker 1>this Minnesota Twins team that kind of came out with

0:36:52.280 --> 0:36:55.359
<v Speaker 1>Eddie Rozario and Horri Polanco like days Antana was a member. Yeah,

0:36:55.360 --> 0:36:57.680
<v Speaker 1>he was in that group for sure, and I think

0:36:57.680 --> 0:37:00.239
<v Speaker 1>he had some prospects satisfack in the day, So it

0:37:00.320 --> 0:37:02.800
<v Speaker 1>was interesting to me he was back in. He stole

0:37:02.840 --> 0:37:06.680
<v Speaker 1>twenty basses and he batted three nineteen speed for with

0:37:06.760 --> 0:37:08.719
<v Speaker 1>the Twins in twenty three games as I'm sorry, at

0:37:09.040 --> 0:37:11.719
<v Speaker 1>age twenty three in over a hundred games. And year

0:37:11.800 --> 0:37:13.759
<v Speaker 1>later you're like, all right, this guy, this guy could

0:37:13.760 --> 0:37:16.520
<v Speaker 1>be pretty good next year, And then he wasn't because

0:37:16.520 --> 0:37:19.480
<v Speaker 1>he's added a hundred points lower with his average his

0:37:19.520 --> 0:37:22.560
<v Speaker 1>babbitt over four over four hundred to nineties, he stole

0:37:22.680 --> 0:37:25.000
<v Speaker 1>just eight basses and he never really regained his story

0:37:25.000 --> 0:37:27.799
<v Speaker 1>and job bounced around after that. So Speed we have

0:37:27.800 --> 0:37:30.319
<v Speaker 1>seen him steal twenty bases before. That's why last year's

0:37:30.320 --> 0:37:33.520
<v Speaker 1>twenty one steals doesn't really seem like a fluke. Um.

0:37:33.600 --> 0:37:35.680
<v Speaker 1>He does have the ability to play all over the field,

0:37:35.719 --> 0:37:38.719
<v Speaker 1>all over the infield and all over the outfield. So

0:37:38.760 --> 0:37:40.960
<v Speaker 1>I think that the Rangers really want to get him

0:37:41.000 --> 0:37:45.920
<v Speaker 1>in the lineup. We'll find a way. There's definitely a

0:37:45.920 --> 0:37:48.600
<v Speaker 1>an outcome, a range of outcomes where he makes me

0:37:48.640 --> 0:37:52.200
<v Speaker 1>look completely foolish, Greg. He goes off for like twenty

0:37:52.520 --> 0:37:55.719
<v Speaker 1>maybe even the speed is there. The batting average isn't

0:37:55.719 --> 0:37:57.319
<v Speaker 1>gonna be good. He strikes out a lot, twenty nine

0:37:57.360 --> 0:37:59.279
<v Speaker 1>and a half percent strike out right, He's got a

0:37:59.280 --> 0:38:01.799
<v Speaker 1>little pop. It'll be interesting to see how the new

0:38:01.800 --> 0:38:04.160
<v Speaker 1>ballpark plays out there in Texas, Greg. But they have

0:38:04.239 --> 0:38:05.960
<v Speaker 1>a roof now, so a lot of people think that

0:38:06.160 --> 0:38:08.440
<v Speaker 1>is going to suppress some of the power a little bit.

0:38:08.440 --> 0:38:10.439
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna come back a little bit, not the same

0:38:10.440 --> 0:38:12.400
<v Speaker 1>way that the ball used to travel when it was

0:38:12.480 --> 0:38:14.520
<v Speaker 1>just open and it was really hot out there in Texas.

0:38:14.560 --> 0:38:17.359
<v Speaker 1>So something to pay attention to. But again, probably more

0:38:17.360 --> 0:38:19.920
<v Speaker 1>of a fifteen fifteen projection for me at a Danny Santanna,

0:38:19.960 --> 0:38:22.440
<v Speaker 1>when are you kind of okay with that? Right? Like

0:38:22.480 --> 0:38:25.160
<v Speaker 1>if you get it wrong with days, that's miss Like, fine,

0:38:25.200 --> 0:38:27.040
<v Speaker 1>I got it wrong. That's how I feel, like Dana

0:38:27.239 --> 0:38:28.680
<v Speaker 1>down Like I'm not gonna wind up taking this guy

0:38:28.760 --> 0:38:30.680
<v Speaker 1>and if somebody else takes them and grass, Yeah, I'm

0:38:30.840 --> 0:38:33.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm okay being wrong with him in terms of my analysis,

0:38:33.120 --> 0:38:34.799
<v Speaker 1>but you can't afford to be wrong with him if

0:38:34.840 --> 0:38:36.839
<v Speaker 1>you draft him, because he's going He's going to pick

0:38:36.880 --> 0:38:38.719
<v Speaker 1>one thirty. I totally agree with you what I'm saying.

0:38:38.760 --> 0:38:40.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm not drafting him. So if I agree with you,

0:38:40.920 --> 0:38:42.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna have him either, and I'm not gonna

0:38:42.320 --> 0:38:44.719
<v Speaker 1>be upset. But that's why he's the X factor because

0:38:44.719 --> 0:38:47.160
<v Speaker 1>if there's people that are very bullish on him and

0:38:47.200 --> 0:38:49.560
<v Speaker 1>he does come to fruition, like, yeah, he's gonna be

0:38:49.600 --> 0:38:52.280
<v Speaker 1>like he's gonna be like that GPP played for DFS.

0:38:52.400 --> 0:38:54.799
<v Speaker 1>Nobody else is going to have Danny Santana and he's

0:38:54.800 --> 0:38:56.920
<v Speaker 1>going to propel you ahead. So all the other guys

0:38:56.960 --> 0:39:00.920
<v Speaker 1>that went last year kind of makes sense, right. I

0:39:01.000 --> 0:39:02.640
<v Speaker 1>name some of the bigger players that went are going

0:39:02.680 --> 0:39:05.120
<v Speaker 1>in the first round. The other players who I didn't name,

0:39:05.280 --> 0:39:07.680
<v Speaker 1>or the Actus. The only player I didn't name was

0:39:07.760 --> 0:39:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Tommy Fan. We started them on very in on Tommy Fam.

0:39:11.320 --> 0:39:15.000
<v Speaker 1>He gave some information today, Frank that maybe not as interesting. Yeah,

0:39:15.080 --> 0:39:18.240
<v Speaker 1>So Tommy Fam is just starting to throw from ninety

0:39:18.280 --> 0:39:22.400
<v Speaker 1>feet now. He was dealing with especial doctors. Yeah, seriously, right,

0:39:22.600 --> 0:39:24.560
<v Speaker 1>he dealt with a u c L injury late last

0:39:24.560 --> 0:39:27.080
<v Speaker 1>season and he's just starting to throw from ninety feet now.

0:39:27.160 --> 0:39:32.520
<v Speaker 1>So reading something like that on February is not really

0:39:32.520 --> 0:39:34.800
<v Speaker 1>what you want to see out of Tommy Fam, especially

0:39:34.840 --> 0:39:37.640
<v Speaker 1>when you have to pay a fifth or sixth round

0:39:37.680 --> 0:39:41.479
<v Speaker 1>price tag on Tommy Fam last year. I won't doubt

0:39:41.480 --> 0:39:43.200
<v Speaker 1>the skill. He was someone that I loved last season

0:39:43.239 --> 0:39:45.320
<v Speaker 1>as well. Greg, you know, I was all over Tommy Fam.

0:39:45.640 --> 0:39:47.719
<v Speaker 1>But I'm a little bit worried about this injury. And

0:39:47.840 --> 0:39:49.439
<v Speaker 1>he's dealt with a lot of stuff the past couple

0:39:49.440 --> 0:39:51.440
<v Speaker 1>of years. I know he's had surgery on his eyes

0:39:51.520 --> 0:39:54.439
<v Speaker 1>to help prepare you know, his vision, and now he's

0:39:54.440 --> 0:39:56.440
<v Speaker 1>dealing with this u c L. Is something you might

0:39:56.480 --> 0:39:59.520
<v Speaker 1>have to think about basically all season long, and even

0:39:59.560 --> 0:40:02.960
<v Speaker 1>before this season starts. Based on that price tag, I

0:40:03.000 --> 0:40:05.520
<v Speaker 1>think Tommy Fan might be a pass for me. We

0:40:05.640 --> 0:40:09.239
<v Speaker 1>like Tommy Fan literally, hey, like we were we were

0:40:09.280 --> 0:40:12.320
<v Speaker 1>in on this guy because of this potential in San Diego.

0:40:12.400 --> 0:40:15.239
<v Speaker 1>Top of the line that we liked it, I'm not

0:40:15.239 --> 0:40:17.520
<v Speaker 1>thinking a risk with the guy has has has had

0:40:17.560 --> 0:40:19.680
<v Speaker 1>a strain you see, out for four months, and he

0:40:19.800 --> 0:40:21.520
<v Speaker 1>has typically missed a lot of time in the past

0:40:21.760 --> 0:40:25.080
<v Speaker 1>recular injuries. So, um, I like Tommy fan It would

0:40:25.080 --> 0:40:27.080
<v Speaker 1>be frustrating if he goes off because because I did

0:40:27.200 --> 0:40:29.400
<v Speaker 1>like him. Um, but I'm not gonna take that. That

0:40:29.400 --> 0:40:31.919
<v Speaker 1>put Ramon Loriano ahead of him for you, Greg, because

0:40:31.960 --> 0:40:33.520
<v Speaker 1>I kind of marry those two together. I think they're

0:40:33.520 --> 0:40:37.399
<v Speaker 1>similar players. I think they are. Loriano projected the bad

0:40:37.520 --> 0:40:39.960
<v Speaker 1>second for the A's. This is a great spot to

0:40:40.000 --> 0:40:42.920
<v Speaker 1>be in that lineup, hitting right behind Simon, right ahead

0:40:42.920 --> 0:40:45.359
<v Speaker 1>of someone like Matt Olsen or Chapman, whoever they put there.

0:40:45.640 --> 0:40:47.400
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna see some good pitches to him. Man. I

0:40:47.480 --> 0:40:50.880
<v Speaker 1>think it's possible. Man, I think it's possible. Lead Simon

0:40:50.960 --> 0:40:56.239
<v Speaker 1>leads off the team. Okay, it's good. You're not sold

0:40:56.280 --> 0:40:58.800
<v Speaker 1>on Loriano, huh. I remember that stretch last year. It

0:40:58.840 --> 0:41:00.360
<v Speaker 1>was like a month or two stretch where he was

0:41:00.400 --> 0:41:03.440
<v Speaker 1>basically like performing like Mike Trout amazing. He was awesome.

0:41:03.480 --> 0:41:06.560
<v Speaker 1>He was amazing. Okay. So, other than the players that

0:41:06.600 --> 0:41:12.000
<v Speaker 1>went last year, Steamer projects a few other players this year.

0:41:12.120 --> 0:41:13.360
<v Speaker 1>That's some of the ones that went last year. Or

0:41:13.480 --> 0:41:14.520
<v Speaker 1>projected to do it again this year, but for the

0:41:14.560 --> 0:41:16.239
<v Speaker 1>most part a lot of them are. But there were

0:41:16.280 --> 0:41:20.080
<v Speaker 1>five players that Steamer projected to go this year that

0:41:20.160 --> 0:41:22.480
<v Speaker 1>did not last year. And it begins with the guy

0:41:22.480 --> 0:41:24.200
<v Speaker 1>that you said, I don't remember. It was the air

0:41:24.320 --> 0:41:26.320
<v Speaker 1>on the air you go, man, I really want to

0:41:26.360 --> 0:41:29.040
<v Speaker 1>at least one share of this guy, and that is

0:41:29.160 --> 0:41:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Albert though Mundency, of course of the Kansas City Royals.

0:41:32.840 --> 0:41:35.040
<v Speaker 1>We know the speeds there, how it should be as well,

0:41:35.080 --> 0:41:38.400
<v Speaker 1>where is he going and what's it cost? So Adelbertomondency

0:41:38.520 --> 0:41:41.720
<v Speaker 1>right now is going in a similar spot to where

0:41:42.160 --> 0:41:44.879
<v Speaker 1>Jonathan VR is going. Jonathan VR we mentioned earlier, going

0:41:44.880 --> 0:41:48.680
<v Speaker 1>around pick forty five, Adelbert Thomondency going five spots higher

0:41:48.680 --> 0:41:51.600
<v Speaker 1>with an ADP of thirty nine point nine. So right

0:41:51.640 --> 0:41:54.719
<v Speaker 1>around you know that forty range for Mondency in the

0:41:54.800 --> 0:41:57.040
<v Speaker 1>early fourth round of a twelve teamer in the third

0:41:57.120 --> 0:42:00.080
<v Speaker 1>round of a fifteen teaming league. And I want one

0:42:00.160 --> 0:42:04.000
<v Speaker 1>share of Mondescy Greg just by the chance, the off

0:42:04.120 --> 0:42:06.520
<v Speaker 1>chance that this guy just goes ballistic, because look what

0:42:06.560 --> 0:42:09.160
<v Speaker 1>he did last year. Forty three stolen bases in a

0:42:09.239 --> 0:42:11.520
<v Speaker 1>hundred and two games. Didn't kill you with the power

0:42:11.719 --> 0:42:15.600
<v Speaker 1>nine Homer's sixty two Ribbies, and if I've watched a

0:42:15.600 --> 0:42:18.879
<v Speaker 1>few Royals games where the broadcasters talk about like how

0:42:18.920 --> 0:42:20.960
<v Speaker 1>the team feels about him, they think that he has

0:42:21.239 --> 0:42:24.120
<v Speaker 1>m v P type upside. He is that talented. It's

0:42:24.120 --> 0:42:27.120
<v Speaker 1>just a matter of him stay healthy. He had a

0:42:27.239 --> 0:42:29.520
<v Speaker 1>surgery in the off season to repair a torn laboram

0:42:29.920 --> 0:42:32.080
<v Speaker 1>so we need him to be healthy. Obviously, that's, you know,

0:42:32.160 --> 0:42:36.600
<v Speaker 1>first and foremost the most important thing for h adalbertomondency.

0:42:36.760 --> 0:42:39.400
<v Speaker 1>But if he's healthy, Greg, if he's healthy, this is

0:42:39.440 --> 0:42:41.759
<v Speaker 1>someone who can hit fifteen and twenty home runs with

0:42:41.880 --> 0:42:46.480
<v Speaker 1>legitimately sixty stolen bases. So he's not a main target

0:42:46.480 --> 0:42:48.480
<v Speaker 1>of mine. I'm not going to have multiple shares, but

0:42:48.600 --> 0:42:50.359
<v Speaker 1>he is someone I would like to have at least

0:42:50.360 --> 0:42:53.160
<v Speaker 1>one share in case he is that player that pops off.

0:42:53.160 --> 0:42:55.840
<v Speaker 1>This cost you a whole lot, right, cost you a

0:42:55.880 --> 0:42:57.880
<v Speaker 1>whole lot? Would you rather have Adelbert Mondesty and Jonathan

0:42:57.960 --> 0:43:02.120
<v Speaker 1>v Are I have before that, I would take VR

0:43:02.160 --> 0:43:07.799
<v Speaker 1>because he is safer. He is Oh gosh, yeah, I'll

0:43:07.840 --> 0:43:11.840
<v Speaker 1>stick with that. No, you won't. Realistically, my answer is

0:43:11.840 --> 0:43:14.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna like I'm targeting someone else in that range.

0:43:14.080 --> 0:43:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I understand, but gun to my head, I had to

0:43:16.440 --> 0:43:21.239
<v Speaker 1>choose one of these players, I'm gonna take you. I

0:43:21.239 --> 0:43:24.319
<v Speaker 1>gotta go. I just hate going back on what I said.

0:43:24.320 --> 0:43:26.759
<v Speaker 1>You know, he's gotta He's gotta stay healthy and I'd

0:43:26.760 --> 0:43:29.000
<v Speaker 1>like to see him get on baseball that more steals.

0:43:29.200 --> 0:43:32.800
<v Speaker 1>If he gets on baseball styear and still stole forty

0:43:32.840 --> 0:43:34.480
<v Speaker 1>three bases, that's why he could be up to sixty.

0:43:34.480 --> 0:43:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Even get on base a little bit more, it's crazy.

0:43:36.200 --> 0:43:38.640
<v Speaker 1>Or just stay healthy that's works. Two hundred two games

0:43:38.680 --> 0:43:41.640
<v Speaker 1>last year, twenty three years old, twenty four this upcoming

0:43:41.680 --> 0:43:44.799
<v Speaker 1>season for at Alberto Mondesi another young player that kind

0:43:44.800 --> 0:43:48.759
<v Speaker 1>of fits this mold. Frank Is in Toronto. Where Bo

0:43:48.880 --> 0:43:52.200
<v Speaker 1>Bichette fits this mold. Uh. Last year it was all

0:43:52.200 --> 0:43:57.680
<v Speaker 1>about Vladimir Guerrero and then bobashett having Vigo, Btis Gariel,

0:43:58.160 --> 0:44:01.319
<v Speaker 1>all these guys kind of coming up together. A lot

0:44:01.320 --> 0:44:04.680
<v Speaker 1>of the hype surrounds of Laddie. Why isn't Bobachette he

0:44:04.760 --> 0:44:07.840
<v Speaker 1>talked about more. I think there is a substantial amount

0:44:07.840 --> 0:44:09.560
<v Speaker 1>of hype around bobichet I think there's a lot of

0:44:09.600 --> 0:44:11.719
<v Speaker 1>people that like him. Awesome hair. By the way, as well,

0:44:11.719 --> 0:44:13.759
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to Bobichette, I worry a little bit

0:44:13.800 --> 0:44:15.840
<v Speaker 1>about the speed, Greg, because he had four solen bases

0:44:15.920 --> 0:44:19.279
<v Speaker 1>last year, four caught stealing. He's likely going to have

0:44:19.320 --> 0:44:21.959
<v Speaker 1>the green light to start the year. But if he has,

0:44:22.320 --> 0:44:24.960
<v Speaker 1>if he continues to steal bases at a fifty percent

0:44:25.080 --> 0:44:27.719
<v Speaker 1>conversion rate, then at some point they might hold up

0:44:27.760 --> 0:44:30.720
<v Speaker 1>to stop sign on Bobichette and tell him to stop running.

0:44:30.920 --> 0:44:33.400
<v Speaker 1>But I think that the tools are all there. He

0:44:33.440 --> 0:44:36.120
<v Speaker 1>has speed, he has the hit tool, he has power.

0:44:36.200 --> 0:44:39.200
<v Speaker 1>The guy hit eleven home runs in just forties six teams.

0:44:39.360 --> 0:44:42.640
<v Speaker 1>He has the pedigree as well, obviously the son of

0:44:42.960 --> 0:44:46.239
<v Speaker 1>Dante Bishette as well. And it's awesome that Blue Jay's

0:44:46.280 --> 0:44:49.000
<v Speaker 1>lineup is just you know, all second generation players with

0:44:49.440 --> 0:44:52.879
<v Speaker 1>Bobachette and Kevin Biggio and Vlag Guerrero Jr. And Laura

0:44:53.040 --> 0:44:55.479
<v Speaker 1>es Gil Jr. As well, And it's a lot of fun.

0:44:55.880 --> 0:44:58.239
<v Speaker 1>But I don't think I'm gonna own any Bobichette this year, Greg,

0:44:58.239 --> 0:45:00.279
<v Speaker 1>And you know, maybe I miss out on, you know,

0:45:00.320 --> 0:45:03.600
<v Speaker 1>the breakout season this upcoming year. But similar to a

0:45:03.600 --> 0:45:05.560
<v Speaker 1>few of the other players we've talked about, there are

0:45:05.640 --> 0:45:07.799
<v Speaker 1>just a lot of players in that range that I

0:45:07.880 --> 0:45:10.600
<v Speaker 1>like more. I'm gonna take you on Moncada over Bobichette.

0:45:10.719 --> 0:45:13.440
<v Speaker 1>Has more major league experience and I think has similar,

0:45:13.480 --> 0:45:16.600
<v Speaker 1>if not better upside than bobashett Manny Machado is going

0:45:16.600 --> 0:45:18.399
<v Speaker 1>in that range. You know him, a big Machado guy

0:45:18.440 --> 0:45:22.000
<v Speaker 1>as well. Look, if Bobachette goes off this year, it

0:45:22.000 --> 0:45:25.240
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't surprise me. It's probably going to be on somebody

0:45:25.239 --> 0:45:28.160
<v Speaker 1>else's team unless the value comes down a little bit,

0:45:28.400 --> 0:45:30.840
<v Speaker 1>and I can't see that happening just based on the

0:45:30.920 --> 0:45:33.239
<v Speaker 1>name in the prospect pedigree. I like Bo Bichette. Man.

0:45:33.640 --> 0:45:36.239
<v Speaker 1>This is one of those where if he goes off,

0:45:36.320 --> 0:45:40.480
<v Speaker 1>like you just want to share him and want to

0:45:40.520 --> 0:45:42.600
<v Speaker 1>share because we could rather have him in a vacuum.

0:45:42.600 --> 0:45:45.239
<v Speaker 1>Would you rather have him over Machado or Yan, I

0:45:45.280 --> 0:45:47.560
<v Speaker 1>won't want I don't want him over Machado. I gotta

0:45:47.600 --> 0:45:49.719
<v Speaker 1>send you my Moncada notes. Man, there's a lot to

0:45:49.760 --> 0:45:52.840
<v Speaker 1>be excited to talk about him briefly. So, Mancada basically

0:45:53.040 --> 0:45:55.760
<v Speaker 1>completely changed his approach from last year, where he became

0:45:55.760 --> 0:45:59.080
<v Speaker 1>more aggressive. In the past, he was almost too passive

0:45:59.400 --> 0:46:01.840
<v Speaker 1>in twenty teen. His chase rate on pitches outside the

0:46:01.840 --> 0:46:04.480
<v Speaker 1>strike zone was like last year it went up to

0:46:04.560 --> 0:46:07.279
<v Speaker 1>thirty one, So he started chasing pitches outside the strike

0:46:07.400 --> 0:46:09.600
<v Speaker 1>zone more. But the best part is Greg his contact

0:46:09.680 --> 0:46:11.920
<v Speaker 1>rate went up, so he chased those pitches, but he

0:46:11.920 --> 0:46:14.880
<v Speaker 1>made contact with those pitches. You would be pushed pushed

0:46:14.880 --> 0:46:18.040
<v Speaker 1>away from Encada if he chased pitches and swung and

0:46:18.120 --> 0:46:20.520
<v Speaker 1>missed at those pitches more. He didn't. He was making

0:46:20.520 --> 0:46:23.799
<v Speaker 1>more contact inside and outside the zone last year and

0:46:23.840 --> 0:46:26.360
<v Speaker 1>he finally put it all together. Greg twenty five home runs,

0:46:26.440 --> 0:46:29.399
<v Speaker 1>three fifteen batting average. I know you're going to look

0:46:29.400 --> 0:46:32.279
<v Speaker 1>at the four oh nine babbit and say, look it's

0:46:32.480 --> 0:46:34.960
<v Speaker 1>it's four h six and say that's not sustainable, and

0:46:34.960 --> 0:46:37.040
<v Speaker 1>I would agree with you, But look at his minor

0:46:37.080 --> 0:46:39.359
<v Speaker 1>league babtists as well. Yeah, So I looked at that

0:46:39.440 --> 0:46:41.960
<v Speaker 1>consistently over three sixty, over three seventy. I think there

0:46:42.000 --> 0:46:44.239
<v Speaker 1>was like a three ninety babbit season in there. There

0:46:44.280 --> 0:46:49.000
<v Speaker 1>was a three seventy nine in their three seventy. He

0:46:49.040 --> 0:46:51.240
<v Speaker 1>was more aggressive last year. He cut down the strikeouts

0:46:51.239 --> 0:46:53.799
<v Speaker 1>from like thirty three to twenty seven percent and makes

0:46:53.840 --> 0:46:57.839
<v Speaker 1>elite batted ball like. When he makes contact, it is

0:46:57.880 --> 0:47:00.880
<v Speaker 1>awesome contact like, look at a stack numbers, and his

0:47:00.960 --> 0:47:03.279
<v Speaker 1>hard hit rate numbers about thirty nine point nine percent

0:47:03.360 --> 0:47:05.960
<v Speaker 1>hard hit. Yeah, the stack cast the average exit veloscis

0:47:06.000 --> 0:47:09.080
<v Speaker 1>like ninety six percentile. So look, I just think the

0:47:09.120 --> 0:47:11.439
<v Speaker 1>sky's the limit. It wouldn't surprise me if Moncada goes

0:47:11.960 --> 0:47:15.759
<v Speaker 1>to eighty thirty home runs fifteen stolen bases, just has

0:47:15.880 --> 0:47:19.080
<v Speaker 1>one of those monster breakout seasons someone who's like drafted

0:47:19.080 --> 0:47:20.799
<v Speaker 1>where Devers is going this year or something like that.

0:47:20.840 --> 0:47:22.680
<v Speaker 1>The thing is, you're not far off from that already,

0:47:22.760 --> 0:47:25.560
<v Speaker 1>right because last years a hundred and thirty games. Fine,

0:47:25.640 --> 0:47:27.359
<v Speaker 1>the batting average is gonna come back a little bit

0:47:27.440 --> 0:47:29.479
<v Speaker 1>for sure. What I'm saying is, yeah, you get twenty

0:47:29.520 --> 0:47:31.600
<v Speaker 1>five homers and tenantilmaz his last year, If you just

0:47:31.640 --> 0:47:34.640
<v Speaker 1>give him five more homers because he plays thirty more games,

0:47:35.600 --> 0:47:39.840
<v Speaker 1>why can't you get better? Twenty four years old? Twenty

0:47:39.880 --> 0:47:42.840
<v Speaker 1>he'll be twenty five in May. Mcada another guy that

0:47:42.880 --> 0:47:44.840
<v Speaker 1>you have a little bit of prospect fatigue on already

0:47:44.840 --> 0:47:46.520
<v Speaker 1>because you've been hearing about him for so long because

0:47:46.520 --> 0:47:49.680
<v Speaker 1>he was trading in the Chrysale deal. Macad I like it, Frank,

0:47:49.800 --> 0:47:51.920
<v Speaker 1>but wouldn't you rather have someone who has been in

0:47:51.960 --> 0:47:54.120
<v Speaker 1>the majors for a few years already, where you almost

0:47:54.120 --> 0:47:56.120
<v Speaker 1>worry a little bit about that second year and pictures

0:47:56.160 --> 0:47:59.600
<v Speaker 1>making adjustments on someone like Bobaschett. Again, he might go

0:47:59.680 --> 0:48:03.200
<v Speaker 1>off just completely make me look stupid, but I think

0:48:03.239 --> 0:48:06.239
<v Speaker 1>Mancada is someone who we've already seen take those necessary

0:48:06.280 --> 0:48:13.239
<v Speaker 1>steps changed the approach batotball data is amazing Assaultman. The

0:48:13.280 --> 0:48:16.920
<v Speaker 1>other players on this list protected to Trade Turner of

0:48:16.920 --> 0:48:20.800
<v Speaker 1>the Nationals. That makes sense we talked about yesterday. And

0:48:20.880 --> 0:48:23.440
<v Speaker 1>Louise Robert, you are Moncada's teammate in his rookie year.

0:48:23.480 --> 0:48:26.880
<v Speaker 1>Would rather have Bobacht or Louise Robert right there? You go.

0:48:27.480 --> 0:48:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Coach to coach is up next, Scott for Alive from

0:48:30.280 --> 0:48:33.040
<v Speaker 1>the Games for Frank Staffle. I'm Greg Sosman. We'll do

0:48:33.120 --> 0:48:38.960
<v Speaker 1>it all again tomorrow, we hope. Are you ready for
