Like, 0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:21.800 what's going on? I think it's the well for me? 0:01:21.920 --> 0:01:26.560 Like my mom has been the hospital. Okay, she's good, right, yeah, 0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:29.360 she's actively here. She got through the surgery yesterday and 0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:32.920 now she's she's out today, so I was gonna go 0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:35.040 pick her up, but she they let her go at 0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:38.840 like twelve o'clock. So good, she's doing it right, Yeah, 0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:40.760 she's doing good. Good at the gold bladder right, and 0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:43.600 we're good. Who needs a gold bladder anyway? You don't, 0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:46.039 you know, it's true waste. It's just just the waste 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:50.120 yourmal your mouth will be good and we're all good. Um, 0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:51.520 what do you want to hit on before we have 0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:55.240 some fun? That's okay? Yeah, well there's there's two games 0:01:55.280 --> 0:01:57.360 I want to hit on, Like you don't have as 0:01:57.360 --> 0:01:59.200 many games as you want. I don't want to. You 0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:02.240 mentioned during the pager stroke who didn't get the save 0:02:02.360 --> 0:02:05.520 last night instead of Steve sche came in almost blew it, 0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:08.720 but he winds up getting to save your boy. Cohamles 0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:11.200 goes five and a third six hits, four runs, only two, 0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:14.520 earned three walks seven strikeouts. On the other side for 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:17.200 the Mariners, King Felix with six and names strike out eight. 0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:21.920 It's pretty nice by King Felix. Mr Groundball rb I 0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:25.200 himself Anthony Rizzo had he stolen base and a home 0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:28.000 running this one his sixth of the year, while Kyl 0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:30.480 Schover hit his fourth of the year. Rizzo off to 0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:33.000 his typically slow start, batting to twenty eight thus far 0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:36.080 this season, while Kyle Schover off to his normal just 0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:41.680 bad player one on the season. Oh, Greg, regarding Anthony Rizzo, 0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:43.840 you know what he was saying in his mind while 0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:46.200 he gets a home run and stolen base? Greg, what 0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:51.000 was he saying? Saying? It's gonna be once once the 0:02:51.080 --> 0:02:54.760 calendar turns to May and Rizzle is good to go. Yeah, 0:02:54.760 --> 0:02:56.880 but it's going to be May, Greg. You know, so 0:02:56.919 --> 0:02:58.880 he's looking forward to the future. He's getting pumped up, 0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:02.280 he's getting ready. By who sucks in his career in 0:03:02.320 --> 0:03:06.560 March and April, Aleander turns to me, he's ready. What 0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:08.040 do you What do you think about? It's gonna be 0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:10.160 may venture? Do you not like that joke? Are you just? 0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:17.560 It's just I get it? And he played like twice 0:03:18.000 --> 0:03:21.480 so you know we got it. But listen, Rizzo by 0:03:21.520 --> 0:03:24.600 obviously you know what I mean. He's still he's still producing, 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:28.839 batting to like he's still been producing. He's got six homes, 0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:31.480 he's got six doubles, he's got eighteen eyes and twenty 0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:33.680 one squad It's not like he's not producing. He's just 0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:36.280 he's gonna just get better. So if there's anybody selling, 0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:38.800 I'd be one of the first to jump on it. 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:41.920 And by easily. You know, Rizzle, you know what he's 0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:44.160 gonna do, and you're right when as the season goes along, 0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:47.560 he gets better and better. I'm assuming that Pedro stroke 0:03:48.440 --> 0:03:51.080 didn't pitch last night, because he threw twenty six pitches 0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:57.160 on Sunday. Still very frustrating. I'm sorry, Frank, Yeah, had 0:03:57.200 --> 0:04:00.880 him in the lineup. I saw Coss Warbets go ahead homer. Yeah, 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:05.320 Cubs in line for save. We'll just keep Steve c 0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:08.080 check in there for the save instead of beauty using. 0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:12.120 And when Edwin Cornascion hit his eighth homer of the season, 0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:15.920 does this guy ever stop? Is he's just timeless? Shame guys, 0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:19.880 doesn't matter, same guy. Bad batting average, all right, that's fine. 0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:22.400 Just give me eight home runs, give me twenty rabbies. 0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:24.400 To start the year. First month of the season, the 0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:28.400 Mariners were the hottest hitting team in baseball for most 0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:30.320 of the month of April. They've cooled off a little bit, 0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:33.800 but it went in. Cornascion, I mean, one year older, 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:36.240 but the production doesn't stop. It's another home run. Eight 0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:38.520 home runs there? How about this? Greig? I tweeted this 0:04:38.560 --> 0:04:43.640 out last night. Drink Dee Gordon has seventeen RBIs. Would 0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:46.640 you like to hear the list that he has? List 0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:49.640 of players that he has more RBIs than sure? That 0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:54.400 would include J. D. Martinez, Xander Bogart's, Nelson Cruz, Ya clueg, 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:59.880 Alex Bregman, and Chris Bryant. Good times, good times, seventeen RBIs, 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:02.200 first month of the season, and he's betting lest you 0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:04.600 didn't see that? And why didn't he lead off for 0:05:04.640 --> 0:05:07.880 this team yesterday? Greg? When they when they sent down 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:10.000 Malex Smith? Did we talking about that? Talking about that? 0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:12.839 We're talking about that Alex Smith? We were on and 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:16.240 off and then I'd say, remained off. I don't have 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:21.200 any no shares Alex Smith. Disastrous April so much so 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:23.880 he's in the sent down. I mean, he was doing 0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:26.120 so well earlier on. I mean, everyone all the matter 0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:28.680 is doing well earlier on until they stopped doing well. 0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:31.440 He had eight stolen basis. I mean, he was really 0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:34.080 was doing what you wanted him to do. He was 0:05:34.080 --> 0:05:36.320 on for his forty plus stolen bassis like you wanted 0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:39.400 also strikeout right from a I also think this is 0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:42.240 kind of a response to get Dan Vogelbach in the 0:05:42.240 --> 0:05:45.200 lineup every single day with Mitch Hattiger playing center in 0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:48.120 Bruce and Santana in the corners with vog back at first. 0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:50.279 That's real bad defense, you know, I thought the Yankees 0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:52.479 had a bad defense. That's a bad defense. But in 0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:57.400 the lineup wise, you don't miss batting average b PA 0:05:57.560 --> 0:05:59.920 with Malex Smith in there, and instead you could back 0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:02.839 the Gordon first, and that's just a much better version 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:04.600 of that, you know what I mean. Maybe not as 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:06.719 many stolen bases at this point with Dee Gordon, but 0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:10.400 much better batting average, you know, just a much better hitter. 0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:12.799 There was going to be regression at some point because 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:15.760 he's got a two thirty four Babbitt. Regarding Malex Smith 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:17.680 still hitting the ball on the ground a ton would 0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:20.960 he supposed to do? Right, when you're a speedster percent 0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:23.799 ground ball, right, that's fine, But a two thirty four babbit, 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.000 I mean, that's not like Malex Smith. I mean, he's 0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:29.119 a three thirty nine career Babbitt. Guys, So some batting 0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:30.880 average we're gonna come. I think the main reason they 0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:34.480 sent him down was because of a thirty percent strikeout, right, 0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:37.159 you can't be a leadoff hitter and be a speedster 0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:39.160 and strike out thirty percent, and you can't be a 0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:42.600 lead of hitter. That's o b pot. But he has 0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:48.960 a ten percent. If doesn't, he doesn't Gordon is performing well? Yeah, 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:52.720 what is Gordon batting average? Three? Why do you put 0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:54.640 him leading off? That's what I want to see as 0:06:54.680 --> 0:06:57.039 a D Gordon owner. He should be him in a 0:06:57.080 --> 0:06:59.760 few leaks. What do you meet off? That's fine. I 0:07:00.000 --> 0:07:01.440 do think that Alex Smith is going to be back 0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:03.960 at some point. Gregg when five years old. I don't 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:05.760 think they're just throwing in a towel on Malex Smith. 0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:08.360 Let him correct himself. So if somebody drops Malex Smith 0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:11.640 in a roto or head to head categories league, I 0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:13.800 would pounce on that. Greg I think he's gonna be back. 0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:18.360 Pounce on that would deep because twelve teams, two teams 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:21.640 to get out of here. He stolen basis. He was 0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:24.040 on page for forty. You can't just find forty stolen 0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:26.800 bases off the waiver wire. He's in the miners. How 0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:28.680 many your point, Nick Paveno, who you're making us hold 0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:30.720 on too. Who's gonna be transition to a reliever? You 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:33.480 know what is he now? Oh yeah, I told you that. 0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:35.440 The week after that, I said I would drop him. 0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:37.240 What are you talking about? At the time, he said, 0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:39.040 hold on to him Alex Smith. Greg, you can't just 0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:40.640 find someone on the Waiverbard. It's gonna give be forty 0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:43.000 stolen basis. You don't work that. Maxmith has to be 0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:44.680 the majors to give you a forty stolen basis. And 0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:46.680 I think he's gonna be back sooner rather than later. 0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:52.080 But twelve team leagues, I think a twelve team rot 0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:54.760 league where you start five outfielders and it's hard to 0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:57.720 come buy stolen bases. I am picking up Malex Smith 0:07:57.800 --> 0:08:00.760 if somebody drops him, and if I own Alex Smith 0:08:01.000 --> 0:08:04.960 in a twelve team rotal league, I am dropping Malex 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:06.880 Smith because he cannot help me and he is in 0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:08.560 the minors, and that is a huge mistake. I do 0:08:08.600 --> 0:08:10.800 not play. I do not play where league where minor 0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:13.800 league players help my major league stats. Let's remember this 0:08:13.840 --> 0:08:15.840 conversation a couple of months from now, and we'll see 0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:18.600 what happens. Sure, you know, because you know it could 0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:22.400 go either way. But from now is different. I think 0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:25.240 that right, because he'll be out there. I can find 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:27.440 someone else on my team to drop, and I'm not 0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:29.440 gonna find someone on my team that that can give 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:32.800 me forty stolen bases. But that's the thinking. Maybe maybe 0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:35.200 you can't find someone else to drop. Maybe you're just 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:37.480 you're stuck and you have you have all you always said, 0:08:37.480 --> 0:08:39.719 well all the injuries, like we're kind of screwed. You 0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:41.680 almost have to drop him if you're in twelve league 0:08:41.679 --> 0:08:43.560 sometimes because like he might be a guy that's in 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:45.080 your lineup, and then you're like, wait, I can't get 0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:46.600 a zero my life. I just gotta drop and pick 0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:48.040 somebody else up. I just have to do it, and 0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:50.839 to head points league. I have no problem dropping him 0:08:50.840 --> 0:08:54.000 at all. I'm just saying when it comes to speed, 0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:56.760 everyone is always trying to find stolen bases and run. 0:08:57.720 --> 0:09:00.360 As bad as he was, they continued to eat him 0:09:00.400 --> 0:09:03.320 off every single day in the lineup that was scoring 0:09:03.360 --> 0:09:06.160 a lot of runs, So he's gonna give you runs. Typically, 0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:08.280 he's a better batting average than what he showed. The 0:09:08.280 --> 0:09:10.920 thirty percent strikeout rate is not like Malex Smith. The 0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:13.360 babbo is extremely low. There's a guy that stole forty 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:15.839 bases last year, and he had eight stolen bases just 0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:18.960 from being garbage the first month of the season, so 0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:21.719 he was on pace for over forty stolen bases. He's 0:09:21.720 --> 0:09:23.560 gonna be back and he's gonna steal basis. I would 0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:25.079 not drop. Who would you rather own? Malex Smith of 0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:30.920 Delono the Shields, Alex Smith what he had? Male Smith 0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:33.360 at eight stolen bases, Delano the Shields has seven. Delight 0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:36.200 of the Shields plays in the major leagues. Still, the 0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:37.720 line of the Shields is not as good of a 0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:40.400 hitter as Malex Smith. Once in the miners, once in 0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:43.040 the majors, one can help you, one cannot. The line 0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:47.160 was also hidden both. I mean when when I was 0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:49.080 talking about on the Shields before the season, I mean, 0:09:49.120 --> 0:09:50.800 this was a guy with like a three fifty plus 0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:54.480 a DP. It's not like I'm not tied into the line. 0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:57.079 I know you're not. But Malex Smith is a better 0:09:57.240 --> 0:10:00.000 player than him. The Linol Shields is not a guy 0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:01.959 they can provide batting average. He's not a good batting 0:10:02.760 --> 0:10:05.280 He's in the miners here hoping he's going to be 0:10:05.400 --> 0:10:08.240 back soon. Are you telling you why? What makes you 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:11.120 think he's young enough. They clearly liked him. They went 0:10:11.120 --> 0:10:14.120 out and traded for him, Greg. They like him. They're 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:17.680 giving to get right. They're giving him a few weeks 0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:19.800 to get right in the minor leagues. He's better than 0:10:19.800 --> 0:10:21.320 what he's shown. He's never been a guy that strikes 0:10:21.360 --> 0:10:24.160 up thirty percent of the time. He's gonna go down, 0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:28.360 He's gonna get right. He's got fixed build this college six. 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:30.560 By the way, you don't know how so young Malex 0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:34.280 Smith just twenty six, and he does another thing. Malex 0:10:34.320 --> 0:10:36.199 Smith is a better player than the line up the Shields. 0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:41.600 There's just maybe I mean, listen, do three thirties seven 0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:44.760 ot For most people, they don't have to line up 0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:46.840 the Shields in their lineup. That's what it comes down to. 0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:49.960 I play in a fifteen team league where I need speed. 0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:52.240 I have him in my lineup as my fifth outfiller, 0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:53.760 and I don't love it. By the way, you I 0:10:53.800 --> 0:10:55.920 need the speed and he's given me seven stars. I 0:10:55.960 --> 0:10:59.080 just don't understand the most teams away how you could 0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:02.480 like Malex Smith over Delonot Shields. He's a better player. 0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:05.280 What don't you understand he's a better player, But he 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:07.800 hasn't been this year at all. He hasn't been this year. 0:11:08.120 --> 0:11:11.560 Are do we judge every player of all time one month? 0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:13.560 But I'm judging if I'm going to hold the role 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:18.319 correct And the Mariners made a decision in April or 0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:21.400 May whatever to send the player to the miners. I 0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:23.440 could find a compared player to the minors, doesn't mean 0:11:23.440 --> 0:11:25.719 he's gonna be there forever. I can find a comparable 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:28.520 player that's in the majors right now, Comparable because they 0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:32.080 have a similar average, similar steals, similar everything, right now. 0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:34.040 Give me that guy that I can put in my 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:36.959 line up right now, and then dropped the guy who's 0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:39.000 not playing right now. I'm not saying I can't pick 0:11:39.040 --> 0:11:41.800 Malex Smith back up later. Yeah, it teems to be 0:11:41.800 --> 0:11:43.760 a lot harder and it's gonna cost you fed to 0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:46.040 pick him up. It's twelve team lea, No it is not. 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:49.679 I don't think anybody's disagree wholeheartedly. I mean, look at 0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:51.760 the past couple of like the Linos Shields. You say 0:11:51.800 --> 0:11:54.920 comparable player de Lionodo Shields hit to sixteen last year 0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:59.920 with twenty stolen bases. Alex Smith who six with full 0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:02.720 He's stolen basis, how do you he attempted fifty two deals? 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:04.640 How do you know Max, he's a better player. But 0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:07.160 how do you know that one season isn't an anomaly? 0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:10.360 How do you know before he hit to seventy he's 0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:14.120 a two sixty six the line of the shield is 0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:16.520 a two forty two career hitter at the major league level. 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:20.760 That's twenty plus points difference in batting average. I know. 0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:22.920 But no, no no matter how much a team likes a guy, 0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:25.560 if he's hitting one sixty five, I mean, you can't 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:27.480 have deserves to be in the miners right now. I 0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:30.280 agree with that he doesn't deserve to be in the majors. 0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:32.920 He's gonna go down, He's gonna get right. He's striking 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.720 out thirty percent at a time in his career he's 0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:39.360 he's twenty percent strike out right, So that's up a 0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:44.240 massive amount. It's not gonna get it done. I agree 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:45.680 with that he shouldn't be in the line up right now. 0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:48.080 He deserves to be sent to the miners. But he's 0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:52.719 a better player than Dene at all. He's in the 0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:55.880 lineup and and and he has higher upside. He has 0:12:55.960 --> 0:12:59.280 higher upside too. That's why I'm dropping Malex Sismith for 0:12:59.320 --> 0:13:00.640 de Line on the Shields. I think he's gonna be 0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:04.319 back within the next week or two. He will not, Okay, 0:13:04.360 --> 0:13:09.560 a week or we're going on that. Well it's May one, right, 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:13.280 if he's not backed by May fifteenth? Do you what 0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:19.400 do you want to do? Lunch lunch bet demonics. Yeah, 0:13:20.200 --> 0:13:23.480 that's who's gonna be better? Who the shields? Her mouth? 0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:25.480 I don't want to bet that, so that that's that's 0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:27.640 an easy way. You didn't take my Vladimir Guerrero bet either, 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:31.000 So that's an easy win for me because he has 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:33.200 to spend ten days in the minor because eleven, so 0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:36.080 he doesn't come back immediately. I win. He will be 0:13:36.160 --> 0:13:39.680 I'm not scared of Up or whoever they called up. 0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:43.679 There's a reason not getting a shot. Okay, he's twenty 0:13:43.679 --> 0:13:46.160 five years old to right, and he's not known for 0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:48.880 being an offensive player. Who knows all right? Well he 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:52.480 didn't last night he went over. You believe in Malex 0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:54.600 a lot? I mean, I don't know, I don't know 0:13:54.600 --> 0:13:57.480 if that's the truth. Would an eight stolen bases in 0:13:57.520 --> 0:14:01.920 one month seven amazing? And we having a two five 0:14:01.960 --> 0:14:05.480 O b P and he five batting average, So he's 0:14:05.520 --> 0:14:08.360 he's still basis he still he's doing super fast. We 0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:10.040 know how fast he is. He's in like the top 0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:12.160 one or two percent of the league. The problem is, 0:14:12.160 --> 0:14:14.880 is he right? Is he just? He might just be 0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:18.640 Joe gaft I always loves Joe gath I mentions I 0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:22.840 couldn't hit like he's better than that, though I'm just 0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:24.480 saying I don't know. I don't think you hit two 0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:27.840 nineties six over four four played appearances in a hundred 0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:30.560 forty games last year if you're a fluke. I just 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:32.520 don't think that that's a fluke over the course of 0:14:32.520 --> 0:14:34.800 an entire season. So that's not even my argument. My 0:14:34.960 --> 0:14:37.040 argument is that right now, and it's a five team league, 0:14:37.160 --> 0:14:40.080 there's no reason to hold on to him. It's no 0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:43.480 one's gonna pick him five outfielders, and and everyone is 0:14:43.520 --> 0:14:46.080 always trying to find speed. Greg he should not be dropped. 0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:48.280 But I just found you speed and Delano just shields. 0:14:48.480 --> 0:14:50.680 I just found it for you. He's not and they're 0:14:50.680 --> 0:14:53.960 not the same saying yesterday he didn't play yesterday, but 0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:55.800 now Smith didn't play for like three days on the 0:14:55.840 --> 0:14:59.360 other day. Like you keep talking about speed. We always 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:01.920 looking for speed. I found you're being too short sighted 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:04.960 with this. But if the twelve team league there are 0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:08.160 players out there, I'm done. I'm just I'm telling you 0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:10.520 right now, if you dropped Malex Smith in a Rhodo 0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:13.080 league with five outfielders, you are going to regret it. 0:15:14.480 --> 0:15:15.720 I think you can. I think you get to pick 0:15:15.800 --> 0:15:17.800 him back up. This was great. I'll let you know that. 0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:19.880 I'll you know, the big Billy agrees that you should 0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:26.600 stash him like he's enjoying the commentary. Um, you know, 0:15:27.360 --> 0:15:30.920 last night Houston shut out Minnesota leven zip Garrett Cole 0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:34.160 seven strong innings, love and strike, hats, walk three, allowed 0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:37.560 just one hit. Michael Panada not nearly as good. Five innings, 0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:40.720 nine hits, five runs. You him, You can definitely drop 0:15:40.800 --> 0:15:42.560 him for Grivin Canning, who totally agree with that. I 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:44.840 already picked up can a lot of home run who'd 0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:49.920 you drop for him? I dropped Anthony Swarzak. I'm done 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:51.800 with him and I had to head points. I'm alright 0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:53.960 with that. Cool, I'm cool with that. The home runs 0:15:54.000 --> 0:15:56.480 hit by Houston yesterday Jake MRIs Nick's second home run, 0:15:56.520 --> 0:15:59.080 George Springer's ninth home run of the season. Georgie's got 0:15:59.120 --> 0:16:02.800 nine on runs? Would Geo comeback to seventy four? The 0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:05.160 o BP at three sixty three, Alex Bregman his fifth 0:16:05.200 --> 0:16:07.200 home run. This he's like believe Springers nine home runs, 0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:10.040 it's a lot. Yeah, he's got power. It feels like 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:12.000 it's been such a slow star for Alex Bregman. I 0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:15.040 don't own him anywhere. He's only got five home runs 0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:18.640 compared to George Springers nine of a slow star. You know, 0:16:18.680 --> 0:16:21.200 I say that he's hitting two seventy one with ps, 0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:23.640 so he hasn't been bad. But I think for where 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:25.960 he was drafted a bit of a slow start here 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:29.720 for you, I mean, George Springer, it's been great. You 0:16:29.760 --> 0:16:31.960 know what, Greig, I just slammed you. I'll give you 0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:34.040 some credit, you too, George Springer over ya C L 0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:36.800 Peak had r c L Peak ranked higher than Springer. 0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:41.360 That so far right about this, although they I also 0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:44.160 remember I talk him over Tommy Fan as well, which 0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:47.240 Tommy fans have a great year. Tommy frights well. And 0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:48.760 I think over Roll and Road he's probably been better 0:16:48.800 --> 0:16:51.200 because he has more steals, definitely definite and famine and 0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:53.600 points Lea's also is doing great. Sob fan has been awesome. 0:16:54.200 --> 0:16:56.640 Just walk rate is tremendous to just that. Tampa Bay 0:16:56.640 --> 0:16:59.760 Bray's lineup has been awesome too. All right, George Spring 0:16:59.800 --> 0:17:02.360 has been right. We will take a break and one 0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:03.800 more game we want to chat about, and that's the 0:17:03.840 --> 0:17:07.639 Dodgers from last night.

I was actually listening to this 0:19:39.880 --> 0:19:43.360 song earlier today. It's Bryan Adam somewhere six to nine. Yeah, 0:19:43.560 --> 0:19:47.080 somewhere six and nine. Good song, are you thinking of it? Frank, 0:19:47.400 --> 0:19:51.320 very very vanilla break Suspen type song. It doesn't surprise me. 0:19:51.520 --> 0:19:54.920 It is very of its time, like classic. I was 0:19:54.920 --> 0:19:58.200 listening to a lot of eighties classic rock tonight. Yeah, 0:19:58.680 --> 0:20:01.320 whatever reason is in that kind of mood, you're just standard, 0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:04.359 Like do you think of classic eighties rock? Some of 0:20:04.400 --> 0:20:07.440 it's good. You can never take exception of being called 0:20:07.520 --> 0:20:09.760 like a forty year old guy. You just can't.

It It 0:20:13.400 --> 0:20:14.960 was just in the mood for it. The metal in 0:20:15.040 --> 0:20:17.600 the eighties was hair metal, which was some of it 0:20:17.760 --> 0:20:20.359 was metallico was. It was was not the norm. That 0:20:20.440 --> 0:20:22.760 was different was just your like your pop ones, right, 0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:27.320 like White Snake that White Snakes consider some of the 0:20:28.040 --> 0:20:34.360 Here I Go, yeah, Here I go, Yeah, that one counts. 0:20:34.200 --> 0:20:36.640 That's all right. A little you know, a little bit 0:20:36.680 --> 0:20:41.440 harder than you know, Summer Roofs, Tom Petty, Steve Miller Band, 0:20:43.119 --> 0:20:48.600
