1
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 1: What's up.

00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 2: Friends, are welcome into Fantasy Pros. This is the Fantasy

00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:12,639
Speaker 2: Baseball podcast here on Fantasy Pros. It's leading off. I'm

00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,840
Speaker 2: Chris Wels. That is Joe Rico. We're ready to launch

00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,400

6
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:19,920
Speaker 1: Baby.

7
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 2: Actually, I believe our finals in Fantasy Pros are. We

8
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 2: have this crazy long playoff run just ended. Some people

9
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 2: are rocking playoffs now. Some people are getting there, and

10
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 2: we are going to be your guiding light through the

11
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,279
Speaker 2: rest of the MLB season and into your fantasy playoffs.

12
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 2: Mister Joe Rico, you and Bubba holding it down on

13
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 2: the weekend. I always feel a little bit displaced when

14
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 2: I'm like five days off of the show. But it's

15
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: good to see your face, my friend.

16
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: Thank you, my friend. It's good to see you too.

17
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: It's fun to getting too catch with Bubba. You know,

18
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 1: we used to do a lot more shows together than

19
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: we have over the last year or so, so it's

20
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 1: really nice getting to catch up with them. And the

21
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 1: two of you are going to get to do a

22
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: show together in a couple of weeks, which is good.

23
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: But yeah, this is this is crunch time. I spent

24
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 1: like three or four hours yesterday just going through all

25
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: of my roto teams. Okay, I need some stolen bases here,

26
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 1: I need some saves, blah blah blah, and just doing

27
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 1: an evaluation, an honest look in the mirror and saying, Okay,

28
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: this team is toast, this team has a chance, and

29
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: just going through a team by a team. This is

30
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: the crunch time, my friend.

31
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, We've got tough decisions, big tough decisions, crazy cuts,

Speaker 2: signed jersey we want to give to you last You guys,

48
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 2: the Brewers were never gonna lose. We were so close

49
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 2: to having that again except last night making a comeback

50
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 2: and then blowing it again. Brewers did drop their fourteen

51
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 2: game winning streak after Austin Hayes had a bases loaded

52
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 2: hit in the tenth. Brewers were pretty incredible. Jose Kitana

53
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 2: again keeps rolling, one run, six and one third, no

54
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 2: decision obviously. William Conturis hit that theoretical go ahead homer

55
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 2: in the ninth which would have put them up. And

56
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 2: Andrew Abbott was really good as well. You know what

57
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 2: I'm curious about. There's so much to just kind of

58
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 2: delve into. We're not going to like dive into the

59
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 2: like baseball radio. Look, let's talk about the Brewers. You know,

60
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 2: it's like a fantasy side. But a guy like Jose Kintana,

61
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 2: he's the prime example of the tough decisions you have

62
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 2: to make for players like him because he's been holding

63
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: it down, especially over his last two starts. He's the

64
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 2: type of guy I think you got a roll with

65
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 2: through the rest of the season, and maybe not even

66
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 2: let be like a streamer Joe.

67
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think he's the perfect example of a guy

68
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 1: who is very different based on what format you're playing in.

69
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: I play in a lot of deeper leagues. A lot

70
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: of my leagues are fifteen teamers. He's an absolute must

71
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: roster player there. I think if you are in the

72
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: shallower leagues, this is a guy who I'm not sure

73
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: how much faith I would want to put in down

74
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: the stretch if it's a ten or a twelve team league.

75
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 1: He has been successful throughout the year, but he's also

76
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: got a four to fifty nine FIP. He's a one

77
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: thirty whip sixteen percent strikeout rate, so I feel like

78
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: you need to be kind of careful with picking your

79
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: spots with him. Later this week, San Francisco one of

80
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: the worst teams against left handed pitchers. That's Golden. After that,

81
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: it's Arizona, It's Philadelphia, and then it's going to be Pittsburgh,

82
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: and then it looks like Saint Louis. So I feel

83
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: like you're comfortable starting him most of the time, but

84
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 1: if there is a really tough matchup, I wouldn't be

85
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: opposed to hitting him for Philly maybe Arizona, Like, I

86
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: don't mind picking my spots with Jose Quintana right now.

87
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, the the Diamondbacks Phillies run in there

88
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 2: is kind of dicey. That's a decent into the season.

89
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 2: But I don't know, I just noticed. I mean, because

90
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 2: obviously all the little ancillary pieces are picking it up.

91
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,119
Speaker 2: The Burrow streak just as a general aside, like fourteen

92
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 2: games was absolutely impressive. They're just a powerhouse. They're doing it.

93
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 2: They've just gott Mesarowski back, but the you know, no Churio,

94
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 2: they've been doing it with like the Ragtag group, and

95
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 2: they've been hot as can be. And I think, you know,

96
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 2: Kintana plays a pretty good, pretty dang good role in

97
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 2: that one. Bad news, it's a little good on that front.

98
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 2: Bad news, Zach Wheeler placed on the IL with an

99
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 2: upper extremity blood clot not good. He's going to be

100
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 2: heading back to Philly for further testing, but currently without

101
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 2: a timetable to return. I think a lot of people

102
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 2: are already speculating that this one's going to be for

103
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 2: the season. The current rotation. And then by the way,

104
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 2: you know, selfishly in my strikeout market, I'm like, okay,

105
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 2: there's one person down. But I also on the betting

106
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 2: pro side, had a lot of those Zach Wheeler cy

107
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 2: Young shares, so you can lock it up for Paul Schemes.

108
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 2: What that just did was destroyed the cy Young market.

109
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 2: So it is Tarik Scoubel and Paul Skeens and it

110
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 2: is over on August eighteenth. And I'm pretty comfortable with

111
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 2: saying that. Now, I know you're gonna do. You're gonna

112
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,480
Speaker 2: do the scooball a little bit and maybe Garrett Crochet

113
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 2: pops back up, right.

114
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think that's a conversation.

115
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, I think that's a but I mean

116
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 2: I think for all intensive purposes, it's done. The NL's done.

117
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,720
Speaker 2: Paul Skeens has that locked up, so yeah, that's officially over.

118
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 2: I looked at the depth chart. So they just got

119
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 2: Aaron Nola back. They probably wish they didn't. They got

120
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 2: him back though, and they've got Tywan Walker in the rotation.

121
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 2: Do you think there's any pickup or desire for Tywn Walker?

122
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 2: Because the thing I wanted to point out Andrew Painter

123
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 2: on Saturday three runs to earn five innings, triple a start,

124
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: and it lines up, lines up, I think, because I

125
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 2: think this the stuff with Wheeler was this weekend. I

126
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 2: think of Saturday so perfectly lines up that he could

127
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 2: be the guy that could get a start here soon.

128
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 2: I think what you got to do is pay attention.

129
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 2: But what would you rather speculate on Painter or pick

130
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 2: up or stream a guy like Tylan Walker or I

131
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 2: guess just avoid Walker in general?

132
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 1: Walker is a guy by and large that I don't

133
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: really like the target. I don't trust him as far

134
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 1: as I could throw him. But that being said, he's

135
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: made seven starts in the rotation since they put him

136
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: back in there. It's been a two to eighty nine era.

137
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,119
Speaker 1: He's won only one game out of those seven starts,

138
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 1: believe it or not. But he's been pitching really well.

139
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: He's only walked four percent of batters. You're not getting

140
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 1: any strikeouts with him, and I don't really trust him

141
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 1: blow the surface, But the Phillies are gonna keep him

142
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: in the rotation. I think in terms of like speculating

143
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: on Andrew Painter, I don't think that they are going

144
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 1: to bring him up right now. That's my gut feeling.

145
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: They're gonna roll with the five guys that they currently have,

146
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 1: and I don't think that there's really a role for

147
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: Painter down the stretch unless they're gonna unless they're gonna

148
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: go to a six man or unless there is like

149
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 1: Nola has to go back on the IL or something

150
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 1: like that. I don't see them stretching at the six

151
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: for Painter, do you. No.

152
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 2: I don't think they're gonna stretch it to six. But

153
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 2: I think there's areos where like Nola is not right,

154
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 2: they might not. I mean again, you could look and

155
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 2: they could say like Walker might be more valuable to

156
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 2: them in a like longer relief role, not saying they're

157
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 2: going to do it. They've got a day off on Thursday,

158
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 2: so I believe the Walker start is set for Friday.

159
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 2: They could still pivot off of this if they want,

160
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 2: because it like perfectly lines up with Andrew Painter. So

161
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 2: don't I don't know which side they're going to go to.

162
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 2: I think it's just all speculation. Game Over is a

163
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 2: really good point. I would say, like Nola McClain, what

164
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 2: we talked about before he got called up, and I

165
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 2: feel very good about like there are better streaming options

166
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 2: but you know, in those deeper leagues, like Tyn Walker

167
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 2: might be in a streamy range. If you're looking to

168
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 2: hold McClain, is you know a better option. There's probably

169
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 2: a couple other better guys, but.

170
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: I would just watch out.

171
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 2: I think if anything, this activates the potential for Andrew

172
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 2: Painter to get a little bit of run at the

173
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 2: end of the year, because how they worked him this

174
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 2: whole season. This was the point. This is the point

175
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 2: that they needed to do there. Just Walker's been good.

176
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 2: You know they had been getting by Losardo has been

177
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 2: good this season. Obviously, Chrisnees looks like a cy young

178
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 2: potential winner. So you know they've got They probably have

179
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 2: a better rotation than they thought they did, so they're

180
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 2: in a little bit less need for him. But I

181
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 2: do think we could be seeing him in the pretty

182
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 2: near future. Cal Raley forty seven homers in the Little

183
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 2: League Classic, but the Mariners were not able to pick

184
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 2: up the win. Col Rally continues to roll, I have

185
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 2: not looked what his because I know we did a lot.

186
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 2: Maybe you could pull this up real quick. Pull up,

187
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 2: cal Rally, what has the last week or so done?

188
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 2: Because he had this atrocious July first hitting, you know,

189
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 2: hitting like a buck seventy seven. I know it's picked

190
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 2: up a little bit. Where have we gotten to at

191
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 2: least even post break on cal Raley? What are the

192
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 2: numbers look like?

193
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 1: So, I mean, just quickly over the last week, it's

194
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 1: five home runs with a three to zero three batting average.

195
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: What's up, Bustle. We got here eighteen slugging its two

196
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,199
Speaker 1: thirty WRC plus now in the second half as a whole,

197
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 1: thirty percent strikeout rate seven eighty eight ops one twenty

198
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: three WRC plus and it is nine home runs in

199
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 1: twenty eight games, which is still ridiculous.

200
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 2: What's the batting average over that time.

201
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: To twenty seven? Okay, so yeah, I mean.

202
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 2: He's gotten it, He's it definitely boosts back up the

203
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 2: three hundred average over a short period of time. Just

204
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 2: super important for the Mariners if they're going to kind

205
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 2: of continue rolling. I think that's the that's the big boy,

206
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,439
Speaker 2: that's the big dog. Nick kurt Speaking of big homers,

207
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 2: twenty fifth home run this season had a pair of walks,

208
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 2: Nick Kurtz, unbelievable. You know, there was like a week

209
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 2: or two ago, people like you know, Jacob Wilson, could

210
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,959
Speaker 2: be coming back soon and he can be making a thing.

211
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 2: He's not gonna make it a thing with a fifty

212
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 2: one percent hard hit rate, eighteen percent barrel three hundred average,

213
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen, your rookie of the Year which we

214
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 2: watched in the Arizona Fall League last year coming into

215
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 2: the second half. He this is another one of those

216
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 2: like market done done, Dynasty values through the freaking roof,

217
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 2: Redraft value through the roof. You know, we talked dynasty

218
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 2: values before next season? Just real quick, Is Kurts number

219
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,679
Speaker 2: two a first baseman I'm trying to or is he

220
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,959
Speaker 2: going to be three? Because I think it's it's vlad

221
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 2: Alonzo or him. I think he's already far surpassed next

222
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 2: season in valuations of Matt Olsen. That's done. And there's

223
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 2: somebody I'm forgetting that's also got kicked out of that market.

224
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 2: I think it's Fladdy. Oh Freddy, Yeah, Freddy, Well, Freddy

225
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,079
Speaker 2: could still be in that market. Like where do you

226
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 2: think Kurtz is going to line for redraft first baseman

227
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 2: next year?

228
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: So I don't think he's gonna go ahead of Latty.

229
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think you should go ahead

230
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 1: of Latti. I don't think you should go ahead of Alonzo,

231
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: although I think that's kind of close. And then I

232
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: think Josh Naylor is in that conversation. Honestly, it's three

233
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: straight great seasons from him. I think he's got to

234
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 1: be in the mix. At least he's a free agency

235
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 1: where he signs will dictate that a little bit. Kurtz

236
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: is pretty solidified into the top five. I think it's Guerrero, Alonso, Naylor, Kurtzen, Freeman,

237
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 1: in whatever order you want to put it. I think

238
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 1: those are the top five. Kurtz for me is probably

239
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: third or fourth. I think you could just by putting

240
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: him behind Vladi and Lolonzo and I wouldn't fight you there.

241
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 2: This is sneaky the big dance Devers. Devers is gonna

242
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 2: be because like we're all just so happy that he

243
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 2: was playing some first because he was gonna positionally be

244
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: kicked out. Oh yeah, yeah, Harper. I wasn't even thinking.

245
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:18,959
Speaker 2: I think Harper was the thing I was thinking about

246
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 2: in there. And Devers is gonna qualify, dude, diet first

247
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,559
Speaker 2: base is gonna be just lit next year. There's big names.

248
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 2: Dever's in there, curses in there. I mean, you're gonna

249
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 2: have a I'm not sure if Naylor belongs in there,

250
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 2: to be honest with you, maybe a group maybe I

251
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 2: think there's like a top six or seven, but the

252
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 2: position is gonna go ten deep. It's gonna be very good,

253
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 2: very good next year.

254
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: What I would argue with Naylor is like twenty twenty three,

255
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 1: he hit three hundred, one hundred RBI last year, thirty

256
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 1: homer hundred RBI. This year, it's gonna be like a

257
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five season hitting close to three hundred. He's

258
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: been so consistent on three different teams now he feels

259
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: like a really safe option. And honestly, he might not

260
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:57,719
Speaker 1: go in that top group, but he feels like a

261
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: really good Like Okay, I missed out on Freeman's Alonzo's,

262
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna take Josh Naylor.

263
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 2: You know literally what I was just about to say

264
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 2: that like, if you don't get in the market, there

265
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 2: is something to be said. We're talking next year strategy

266
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 2: of like you kind of want to be involved in

267
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 2: those guys, because if you're gonna let everybody else, you know,

268
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 2: pick up those first basemen, you take a step down.

269
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 2: But he might be the guy that you get when

270
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 2: you miss all those you just got to make sure

271
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 2: that while everybody else is drafting those, you know, first

272
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 2: the first baseman, you're getting outfielders or you're picking up

273
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 2: some of the elite starting pitchers, and then you just

274
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 2: get you know, ninety five percent of the value that's

275
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 2: going to throw out there a bunch of and this

276
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 2: is another one too, just in the more of the

277
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 2: keeper market. But Mr Kami is going to be coming

278
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 2: over next season. You know he might actually go to

279
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 2: Seattle but or the the Yankees, but you know, we'll

280
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 2: have conversations about that. First base is probably going to

281
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 2: be as a lead as it's been in like a

282
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 2: long time, and it is thanks to Nick Kurtz, who

283
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 2: has not slowed down this entire season and is wrapping

284
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 2: that up. Who won't be in the discussion though, is

285
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 2: Nate Low. Nate Low will be a first baseman for

286
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 2: an AL team. Looks like Key is according to Jeff

287
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 2: Passen finalizing that deal with the Boston Red Sox. He's

288
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 2: going to be playing some first and they've been doing

289
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 2: a lot of different things. We're going to talk about

290
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 2: it in a little prospects segment here of what they've

291
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 2: been doing. But Low is potentially going to be a savior.

292
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 2: And I had somebody over the week and ask like,

293
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 2: why would why would Low get dfa' and it was like,

294
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 2: they're doing it for him. They they're not doing that

295
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: for the benefit I think of them. It's just like

296
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:26,199
Speaker 2: letting him go find another spot. The national stink. So

297
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 2: I like Low in Boston. I think that's a you know,

298
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 2: like it's a low end phanto noe pun intended like

299
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,599
Speaker 2: fantasy option for a corner infielder if you're kind of

300
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 2: struggling at the position.

301
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Like he's still a solid hitter. He's had

302
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: a bit of a down season, but he makes good contact.

303
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 1: He doesn't Chase doesn't really strike out a ton twenty

304
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 1: six percent. It's a little bit higher than usual, but

305
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: he's usually like a twenty two to twenty three percent

306
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,760
Speaker 1: strikeout rate guy. Sixteen home runs and seventy ribies to

307
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: this point. Like he's had not a bad season in

308
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: the Red Sox desperately need for his base and Bubba

309
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: and I called this destination at all on Friday show.

310
00:13:58,679 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: So feel pretty good about that.

311
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 2: One nice good call. Let's go to our people, let's

312
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 2: see what we got going on answering some questions in

313
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 2: the show. Here thoughts on Nolan McLain's performance and sustainability. Boy,

314
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 2: telling you guys about those spin numbers, I was talking

315
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 2: the sweeper but manipulates it as a nice curve like

316
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 2: he looked sick in that last outing, so you know,

317
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 2: I mean, you guys know, I'm kind of a I'm

318
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 2: a big push for him. They said he's going to

319
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 2: be in the rotation the rest of the year. I

320
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 2: think he is not a guy I'm looking to cut

321
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 2: like in the stream market. I'm trying to hold on too,

322
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 2: because I think he is going to He's really really

323
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 2: difficult at bat with it was like thirty three hundred

324
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 2: rpm curve balls and stuff like that. But what's your

325
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 2: thought on it? What do you think as far as like,

326
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 2: do you think he's going to be able to maintain

327
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 2: through the rest of the year. Is he someone you

328
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 2: want more than just a streamer? What do you think

329
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 2: about Nolan McClain.

330
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he's above streaming range, but I'm not

331
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 1: sure he's like you have to, you know, empty out

332
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: the rest of your fab coffers on him. Top waiver

333
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: Priority like, I think he's going to be good, but

334
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: they're also you know, there's always some ups and downs

335
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: with your first few career starts. We know this. He's

336
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: a guy who does have some shaky command. He's walked

337
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: fifty guys in one hundred and thirteen innings in the

338
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: minors this year. He walked four in his five and

339
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: a third innings the other day, So I think he

340
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: is going to be good. But you also have to

341
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: look at the fact that the Mets as a team

342
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 1: have been not very good for a little while now,

343
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: so there is a possibility that maybe the wins aren't

344
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 1: as good as people are expecting. I think that he

345
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: is well worth an ad and say twelve team leagues

346
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: and deeper, but I'm also not you know, spending every

347
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: penny I have on him. I like him, but I'm

348
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: not going crazy.

349
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 2: Game of who said, by the way, that his playoff

350
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 2: starts today, so we're getting some playoffs going today. Isaac Collins,

351
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 2: Lawrence Butler, or Jackson Merrill for the week.

352
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: Collins is right off of the paternity leave, so he's

353
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: got that extra dad power. Lawrence Butler had a couple

354
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: of home runs last week and did look not too bad.

355
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 1: And then Merrill is going to be facing San Francisco

356
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: in a couple of lefties to start the week, and

357
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 1: then Los Angeles. So I think it's going to be Collins.

358
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: For me, I think it's gonna be Collins.

359
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 2: Okay, what did you say the Butler matchup was? Because

360
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 2: I think I'm.

361
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: Butler is at Minnesota Joe, Ryan Baily, ober Urania, and

362
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: then Seattle Wu Kirby Gilbert and then oh my god,

363
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: and then Schooble on Monday. So this guy just a

364
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: gauntlet of pictures right now.

365
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I'm actually leading a little bit

366
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 2: Merrill there, but I can go with Collins for sure.

367
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 2: This is a tough one. Suler said, cut Kyle Stowers

368
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 2: in a keeper league could keep him in the tenth,

369
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 2: but also could cut Schwellenbach in the sixth. The reason

370
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 2: you're saying this is because, as we'll mentioned later, Stower's

371
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 2: going on the IL. So I mean, I don't think

372
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 2: I could cut Stowers, especially in the tenth. That's an

373
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 2: incredible value. What's the point, like, is it taking up

374
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 2: bench spots? I don't want to cut either one of them,

375
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 2: to be honest, If we.

376
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: Can get a little more context. You know, how many keepers,

377
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: how many teams in the league, that kind of thing.

378
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: It might help a little bit to answering that one.

379
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, who to pick up this week? Cavali versus Philly,

380
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 2: Gomez versus Atlanta, she And versus Colorade, or Jason Alexander

381
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 2: versus Baltimore. These are good, I would have said Cavali,

382
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,919
Speaker 2: except they don't love the Philly matchup. I would probably

383
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,719
Speaker 2: go she Han in this grouping, But what say you?

384
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 1: I would go she In for this week, But if

385
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 1: you can also grab Cavali, I would be doing it.

386
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 1: I liked what we've seen from him a lot, and

387
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 1: the Philly start does scare me a little bit. But

388
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 1: he did just throw seven shut out against him the

389
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: other day. You never know what's going to happen the

390
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 1: second time around. It could be great, it could be terrible.

391
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: But overall, the stuff has been good. He was a

392
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: relatively highly ranked prospect. It's hard to remember how high

393
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,640
Speaker 1: he was and prospect lists, but he was a relatively

394
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,360
Speaker 1: highly ranked prospect. He looked pretty good, so I think

395
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 1: he's the option rest of season. But she In for

396
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: this week.

397
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 2: We got some context by the way that league was

398
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 2: a five keeper to ten team five keeper.

399
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: So yeah, I get it.

400
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 2: I don't know, man, Like I guess the other context

401
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 2: is like, what like, are you dying for positional stuff?

402
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 2: Are both of those guys taking up spots? I can

403
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 2: be honestly, it might be Schwellenbach right now. I just

404
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,719
Speaker 2: like tenth round Kyle Stowers, Like Stowers looks like a

405
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 2: thirty ten guy locked down. Yeah, I just don't know

406
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 2: if I want to get rid of that.

407
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: Who are the other keeper options? Solar? That last thing,

408
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 1: I'll ask you if there's.

409
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,120
Speaker 2: Like four outfielder league too.

410
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 1: It really depends if you have lind'or and you have

411
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 1: Vladdie and blah blah blah blah, then it makes the

412
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: decisions a little bit easier. But any extra contact will

413
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: help there.

414
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:18,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, we'll try to do it in the chat.

415
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna do it back up the show, but

416
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 2: we'll try to jump it into the chat. Uh in

417
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 2: the the I don't know, news rumory. This isn't really rumors,

418
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 2: but I put it in here in the two pieces

419
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,360
Speaker 2: of interesting news department before we look at some prospects.

420
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 2: I don't know if this is all national for anybody

421
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 2: this is my timeline is demolished by it. I don't

422
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 2: know the level of national news this is, but to

423
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 2: tell Marte, it's a mess. I just wanted to get

424
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 2: your take real quick. Here is the quick little rundown.

425
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 2: There was a report like of some like a month

426
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 2: or so ago of a local guy, this guy Dan

427
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 2: Bickley out here was trashing to tell Martine. Everyone's like,

428
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 2: what the hell, dude, what's your problem? Then it comes

429
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,919
Speaker 2: out and bigger, right. Nick Pocoro wrote about this that

430
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 2: essentially can tell after the All Star Game, told nobody,

431
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 2: flew out to the Dominican Republic, did not go back

432
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,199
Speaker 2: with Carol, did not go back with the crew, went

433
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 2: to the Dominican Republic without telling anybody for little VAK

434
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,880
Speaker 2: after the All Star Game. Then his house got broken into,

435
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 2: came back. The point of that was he missed some

436
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 2: critical games between the Diamondbacks being sellers and still competing,

437
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 2: and Tory Lavello admitted in an interview that he did

438
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 2: not know about this stuff. So then a report comes

439
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 2: out that there are players in the locker room that

440
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 2: are essentially sick of Katel Marte, that they're sick of

441
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 2: his stuff. He's kind of a baby. He's not there

442
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 2: for the team. He gets special treatment. Lavella even kind

443
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,439
Speaker 2: of confirmed that. And then the last report comes out

444
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 2: that the Diamondbacks, according to Bob Nightingale, are looking at

445
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 2: potentially trading him in the offseason. This then led to

446
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 2: Haldo Perdomo doing like this impromptu interview defending Katel Marte

447
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 2: and telling the media to stop. It's really nasty out here.

448
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 2: And by the way, he didn't play last night. He

449
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 2: did pinch hit over too or whatever, but he didn't

450
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 2: start the game. So it's really nasty with Katel. I

451
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,199
Speaker 2: think the emotional guy that he is, this is going

452
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 2: to weigh on him the rest of the season. A.

453
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 2: Is this national news at all? Are you seeing any

454
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 2: of this? And B do you think katel Marte is

455
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 2: going to be moved this offseason?

456
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,679
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't follow the d Backs that closely,

457
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 1: but from what I understand, this is essentially a hit

458
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 1: piece that was put out against Marte that was unfair

459
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 1: to him, that is mischaracterizing his actions. And again I'm

460
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: not as connected with the d Back stuff. But he

461
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: went home because his home was robbed.

462
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 2: No, that's that's inaccurate. He went no, his home in

463
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 2: Arizona was robbed. He went to the Dominican Republic without

464
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 2: telling anybody, and he found out his home was robbed

465
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,120
Speaker 2: while in the Dominican Republic.

466
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 1: Okay, that's a little bit different.

467
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why this is messy. And the characterization, by

468
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 2: the way, is from players. There's player quotes that are

469
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,360
Speaker 2: out there. Something I've heard is maybe one of those

470
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,679
Speaker 2: players no longer plays with the Diamondbacks that might have

471
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 2: been voted potentially plays in the Pacific Northwest. You know

472
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,679
Speaker 2: that type of stuff. But you know there are some

473
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 2: players out there, some are defending and some don't like

474
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 2: some of the antics. So that's the I guess of anything.

475
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 2: I'm just telling everybody if it's not big news.

476
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think it's huge news. I mean, maybe

477
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 1: they do trade him. Like the way that this came

478
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,879
Speaker 1: out of my timeline was I follow some Diamondbacks people

479
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 1: and they were like, this is ridiculous. How could they

480
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 1: say this kind of stuff about Katel. Perdomo went and

481
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: defended him. I don't think this is that big of

482
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,159
Speaker 1: a deal really, but if they do trade him, that

483
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 1: would be like he's arguably the best second baseman in baseball,

484
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,439
Speaker 1: so it would obviously be a big deal if he

485
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,640
Speaker 1: was traded. But just looking at this on the surface,

486
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 1: I don't think this is a Raphael Deverige type of

487
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 1: situation or anything close to it, at least not yet.

488
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 1: But what do you think You're right there?

489
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 2: I think we might get there. I think it's nasty.

490
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,159
Speaker 2: It's really nasty out here because it's all the local

491
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,640
Speaker 2: reporters are now on it. The team is against them,

492
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 2: Lavelo is defending, but also being like, yep, didn't know

493
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,680
Speaker 2: about this. I think there's gonna be some heads on

494
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 2: the chopping block in the offseason. It might start with

495
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 2: Toy and it might be k Tell Marte. And the

496
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 2: point I bring up is just pay attention because Katell

497
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:05,639
Speaker 2: is such an emotional guy. I wonder if this is

498
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 2: gonna affect him. I wonder if you're gonna see either

499
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 2: him pick it up or a slow down. I feel

500
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 2: like there's not gonna be a middle ground, so just

501
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 2: be on the lookout for that weird news. The other

502
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 2: piece is if you're expecting Victor Robolis back anytime soon,

503
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 2: you might want to second guess that because yesterday, if

504
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 2: you did not see this news circulating in his rehab

505
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,160
Speaker 2: start at Triple A, and to be fair, he has

506
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 2: been getting hit a lot. I guess he says this

507
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 2: is the fifth. I thought it was a third, but

508
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 2: Victor Roeblis was hit by a pitch, then proceeds to

509
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 2: sulk for a second and then through his bat at

510
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 2: the pitcher yelled got you know, obviously got ejected, goes

511
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 2: in the dugout and then takes tubs and throws it

512
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 2: on the field. Absolute absolute cry fest and just pull

513
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 2: the Delman Young, which you can't do through a bat.

514
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 2: Then he goes on and he's just like no, he's

515
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,000
Speaker 2: me on Instagram with their little notes pose. He's like,

516
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 2: I'm just so sad. I'm sorry, and it's just like, dude,

517
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 2: you threw a bat like that. There's a line and

518
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 2: it starts with your bat leaving your hand at another player.

519
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe baseball will be light on it

520
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 2: because he got hit a whole bunch. I would expect

521
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 2: this is something we're not going to see Victor Roblis,

522
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 2: but I mean, Dell, they were not light on Delman

523
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,919
Speaker 2: Young if I remember that correctly, where he flipped a

524
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,239
Speaker 2: bat and it hit an umpire, So any thoughts on this.

525
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 2: I don't think we're going to see Victor Roblus the

526
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 2: rest of this season, but I could be wrong.

527
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 1: No, I don't think we are either. Once this happened yesterday,

528
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 1: I went back and started watching some old clips. Brett Lourie,

529
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,360
Speaker 1: former Blue Jay, took his helmet off after a strikeout

530
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: and whipped it at the ground and it bounced off

531
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: the umpire. David Ortiz destroying jugs of gatorade in the dugout.

532
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: These things happen, I think, you know, maybe it's five

533
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: six game suspension off the top of my head, just

534
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 1: looking at the numbers, he's been hit three times in

535
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 1: five games, which, okay, that's not going to feel great.

536
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 1: But you know, with all due respect, who does Victor

537
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 1: Roblus think he is? That they're going to be like,

538
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: we got to plunk Victor Roblas in this Triple A game.

539
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, it's there's no targeting at least I

540
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: don't think.

541
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's frustrations. He got frustrated, he said after He's like,

542
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 2: I've been hit a bunch of times. I totally get it.

543
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 2: It's just like if there's one drop the bat and

544
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:13,640
Speaker 2: charge the mound. Go do that, and I think you're fine.

545
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 2: But he took the bat and he just like he

546
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 2: flung it. He looked he was in center field trying

547
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 2: to throw out a guy at home like he flung

548
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 2: the bat. And luckily, you know, there was no big,

549
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:26,159
Speaker 2: crazy damage. But it's a nasty situation. Again. I might be, like,

550
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 2: you know, making too much about it, but he's gonna

551
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 2: be in a little bit of hot water at a

552
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,200
Speaker 2: little playing bit of hot water. Let's do some prospecting,

553
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 2: a little bit of a different look prospecting with the

554
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 2: Welsh this season has always been about the future, guys

555
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 2: that are gonna help you that you need to be

556
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 2: looking on the waiver wire. Well, guess what the future

557
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 2: is now. The future is here. So this is more

558
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,719
Speaker 2: of a rookie lookie slash prospect update for you with

559
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 2: some other pieces kind of some prospecting news to get

560
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:57,119
Speaker 2: you take you home with number one Jacob Marcy. Jacob

561
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 2: Marcy two for two. He did not start the game

562
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 2: on Sunday, but he came in to run. Homer Now

563
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:08,360
Speaker 2: hitting three seventy seven four sixty eight, seven seventy four

564
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 2: slash fifteen RBIs no doubt must own Are you game now?

565
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 2: Because I think last week I've had multiple people little

566
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,439
Speaker 2: different processes about Jacob Marcy. I said pretty much from

567
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 2: day one, this is the type of guy you pick

568
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 2: up and you dump guys like Jerk, remember the jerks

569
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 2: and profile you pick Profar over him. I get it,

570
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 2: but like dump those type of guys for a guy

571
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 2: like Marcy if it works out. It has been working out.

572
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 2: So are you a rest of season by on Marcy

573
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 2: with this run? Probably not available anywhere right now. But

574
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 2: this is more about the people that are holding onto him.

575
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 2: Should they give him a longer leash moving forward?

576
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: Yeah? I've never been a Profar guy. I was pretty

577
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,119
Speaker 1: anti Profar, but he has been very good to his

578
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 1: credit over the last few weeks. But what Jacob Marcy

579
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,920
Speaker 1: is doing, it's not even just on the surface of

580
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 1: the fantasy stats have been good. The data is unbelievable.

581
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 1: I look, I spent half the going through fangrass pages

582
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,640
Speaker 1: and looking at play discipline metrics, which sounds a little

583
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 1: bit sad to say out loud, but at the same time,

584
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 1: Jacob Marcy has a seven point eight percent O swing,

585
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 1: which is a chase rate essentially ninety five percent zone contact,

586
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: three percent swinging strike rate, like he is doing everything

587
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 1: so well on a thirty four percent swing rate. He's

588
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 1: just it's so, it's so beautiful to look at fourteen

589
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: percent barrel rate, fifty five percent hard hit rate, expected

590
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: slugging of seven hundred, like this is it's not gonna

591
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: be this good forever. But six more weeks of this

592
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: from Jacob Marcy. Welcome to the top one hundred, my friend.

593
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: That's where we're going.

594
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, Mart, And that's the point. This is a prospect

595
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 2: that is going to help and push you for a

596
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,360
Speaker 2: huge playoff run. What do you think about the big

597
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 2: dances here Collins over Marcy? Which side would you go on? Here?

598
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,360
Speaker 1: Ah? Man, I feel like I have to go with Collins,

599
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 1: just because the Brewers are such a wagon right now,

600
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 1: like over the last month they have a one forty

601
00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:00,119
Speaker 1: five WRC plus as a team, they are just so's

602
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 1: oh so phenomenal, Collins being a huge part of that.

603
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,119
Speaker 1: They both should be rostered. But given the option, I

604
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 1: think I'd have to go Collins.

605
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 2: They both should be rostered. I'm gonna go with Marcie

606
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 2: right now. I hate the idea and the ten team,

607
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,239
Speaker 2: you might have to make these tough decisions, but like

608
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 2: if you want to play the split market, not only

609
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 2: is he this isn't the split but you know, high

610
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 2: barrel percentage, fifty four percent hard hit rate, he's not

611
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 2: striking out, he's walking almost fifteen percent of the time,

612
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 2: he's getting the ball in the air. He's hitting the

613
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,880
Speaker 2: ball hard on average. But he's also hitting three hundred

614
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 2: against right he's in lefties, so it's like he's not

615
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 2: in a platoon situation. By the way, he's hit two

616
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,719
Speaker 2: of his four homers against lefties. So I'm a Jacob

617
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 2: Marci stan right now. He is a big playoff push

618
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 2: for you. We finally got Samuel Bissio, incredible, finally called

619
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 2: up for this final run. As you know and I

620
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 2: mentioned in the previous prospecting segment, August sixteenth essentially was

621
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 2: your open date where a player cannot be on the

622
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 2: roster and lose prospect eligibility. So this is why we

623
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 2: might see some of these guys. And beside it was

624
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 2: one of those players that we talked about in his debut,

625
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 2: or at least on Sunday, I don't know if this

626
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 2: actually was his debut. Now'm thinking about it, one for

627
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 2: four two RBIs against the Astros. He was dhing and

628
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 2: I expect him to primarily DH the rest of the

629
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 2: way through ownership. I know you tweeted about this. You

630
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 2: found you were really relaying him to other catchers and

631
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,959
Speaker 2: saying you'd have to cut these other catchers. But let

632
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,439
Speaker 2: me get you to phrase it a different way. Do

633
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 2: you think as a DH he can be valuable? So

634
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 2: someone that you could put in as a util guy

635
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 2: or catcher, do you think there's like util value in him?

636
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 2: And let's say a twelve team league rest.

637
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 1: Of season, there's always the potential for it. But when

638
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: I look at the way the Orioles have treated prospects,

639
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 1: whether it's been top prospects, mid range prospects, the Mayo's,

640
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: the Keere stats, whoever it is, there's usually some nonsense.

641
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 1: Whether it's he's gonna sit three days and then play

642
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: one and then he'll play a couple and then he's

643
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 1: gonna get sent back down. I just don't know what

644
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 1: to expect from that point of view. That's the first thing.

645
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 1: And then it's a rookie catcher, so you don't really

646
00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: know what to expect performance wise either. The numbers in

647
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 1: the minor leagues are fantastic twenty three homers, one hundred

648
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 1: and fifty WRC plus. But at the same time we're

649
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 1: looking at, you know, a catcher on a mediocre offense.

650
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: If you're talking about twelve team players, if they should

651
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 1: be using a utility spot on him. My argument would

652
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: be that there's probably so many nice things on the wire.

653
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: People are asking like Collins or Marcy, which implies that

654
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 1: one of them is available. So when I'm seeing those

655
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: kind of situations out there, it's hard for me to

656
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 1: say that Besilloh should be rostered. When I'm picking up catchers,

657
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 1: for me, I don't like to keep them on the

658
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 1: bench and starting them or they're they're not in my team,

659
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 1: So that's kind of where I'm at. In one catch

660
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 1: two catcher leagues, different story. But if you're just starting

661
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 1: one catcher in a twelve team league, would be a

662
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: little bit tough for me to pick them up.

663
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 2: And honestly, his teammate Dylan Beavers is probably a little

664
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 2: bit more valuable playing the outfield right now. You got

665
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 2: to hit over the weekend like that would be someone

666
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 2: I would be a little bit a little bit more

667
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 2: excited about. And there's that's kind of a theme on

668
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 2: some of these. There's some non exciting prospects that have

669
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: you know, made themselves valuable, like Drew Gilbert. Drew Gilbert

670
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 2: was not an exciting guy for really anybody, but you know,

671
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 2: from Robert Hassel passing it down to Jacob Marcy passing

672
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 2: it down to a guy like Drew Gilbert, Drew Gilbert's

673
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 2: finding some value. Two for four, hit his first major

674
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 2: league homer this weekend. He's getting run looks like kind

675
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 2: of through the rest of the season, there is minimal value.

676
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 2: I mean, he's not in the Marshie camp. If you

677
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 2: had to go, okay, rank them, Dylan Bieber's pisio Drew Gilbert.

678
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 2: Of who you want to own right now?

679
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 1: Biab's Pisaio Gilbert probably that order, honestly, Okay, Gilbert, he

680
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,640
Speaker 1: just doesn't impress me that much. Like with that home run.

681
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 1: He's got his WRC plus up to seven, he said

682
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 1: in one thirty six, And that's probably being a little

683
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: unfair because it's only eight games. But I feel like

684
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 1: his prospect capital had kind of declined over the last

685
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 1: couple of seasons. If you look at what he did.

686
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty four in the minors, he had a

687
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: seventy nine WRC plus. This year it's been in one

688
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 1: oh four a little bit better. But I don't look

689
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: at Drew Gilbert and see a future major league regular,

690
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: do you? No?

691
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 2: I mean, and like, overall production has not been good,

692
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 2: and he's hitting like a buck thirty six. He's just

693
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 2: coming off of that big one. He's shown good like

694
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 2: MAXI type of numbers. It's like a run one O

695
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 2: eight max EV. He's getting the ball in the air,

696
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 2: but he has not found a stride. I mean, it's

697
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,479
Speaker 2: like striking out a lot, like you know, hard hit

698
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 2: numbers stink. He's not barely in the ball. He's still

699
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 2: finding himself. I actually think he could float around and

700
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 2: be a major league guy for quite some time, but

701
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 2: I'm not sure it's going to be anything good. So

702
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 2: that's one. Don't kind of fall into the trap of

703
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 2: any of the production from him in kind of a

704
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 2: short run or anything like that. A couple prospects just

705
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 2: want to throw out here. I mentioned this the password

706
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 2: I always screw up his name, Jo Hinsing Garcia. I'm

707
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 2: not given the password. I've been working at first base

708
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 2: in TRIPAA. So that's a very important thing. As mentioned earlier,

709
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 2: that you have the Red Sox signing Nate Lowe to

710
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 2: play first. He doesn't work out quick, it might be

711
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 2: something to be on the lookout for that the password

712
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 2: getting his first games at first at first, if you

713
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 2: get two more weeks, they legitimately might bring him up

714
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 2: to the majors. He has been red hot all season long,

715
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 2: so look out for him. Two big prospect names were

716
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 2: called up from High A to Double A. It doesn't

717
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 2: have a lot of fantasy value, but I just want

718
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 2: you guys to know when, especially when you're talking in

719
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 2: like the bigger market, four guys that are going to

720
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 2: produce next season. Number one prospect and at least in

721
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 2: my ranks, and a couple others. Connor Griffin called up

722
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 2: to Double A by the Pirates, and Leo Devrees, the

723
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 2: athletic not the padre, was called up to Double A.

724
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 2: So those are two really really big promotions that were

725
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 2: put out there. Now there's one final thing we're going

726
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 2: to talk about in this prospect update. It's the thing

727
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 2: that immediately started. Oh yeah, Yo Stinson, thank you, beatie,

728
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 2: Yo Stinson Garcia. It's the number one thing that pops up.

729
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 2: I got hit up about it this weekend. I get

730
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 2: hit up at it all the time. What in the

731
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 2: world do we do with Bubba Chandler? Bubba Chandler this

732
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 2: weekend and his last start four runs, three and one

733
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 2: thirds of an inning on Saturday. There's an open spot.

734
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 2: I think everyone was saying it was Wednesday. He's not

735
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 2: going to pitch on a Wednesday, and they're not talking

736
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 2: about it. But here's the thing that keeps popping up. Hey,

737
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 2: I've got Bubba Chandler. Could he come up soon or

738
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 2: should I move on? Here's been my answer. Joe doesn't

739
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 2: matter if he comes up soon or not anymore. I'm

740
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 2: out like, Yes, I do think if you've held on,

741
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 2: he could be called up in the next week or two.

742
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 2: But I don't think I care. I don't think I

743
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 2: care what that start looks like.

744
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 1: I would.

745
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 2: I'm probably more excited at this point if mick Abel

746
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 2: got called up by the Twins after that. So yeah,

747
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 2: he is one hundred percent. He's his figment of our

748
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 2: imagination doesn't really exist. So yes, he could get called up.

749
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 2: Do we know what win that will happen? No, we don't.

750
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 2: But I've come to the termination that I just don't care.

751
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 2: He has been inconsistent. I think a lot of this

752
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 2: is at the fault of the Pirates, but he has

753
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 2: not rattled off multiple starts together, and if he gets

754
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 2: called up, I actually think it could just be a

755
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 2: messy situation as well. The walks are an issue. He's

756
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 2: not going deep into games look bad. So in all instances,

757
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 2: I am moving on from him unless it's some type

758
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 2: of deep keeper. And that's my final thoughts on Bubba Chandler.

759
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 2: Anything you want to add.

760
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: So I picked him up the other day in my

761
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:14,839
Speaker 1: home league, and the reason is it's a Yahoo league

762
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,240
Speaker 1: and you have a minor league spot. It's an NA

763
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 1: slot minor league spot. And the guy who'd been holding

764
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 1: him for four months dropped him and I had a

765
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 1: free spot. I was like, okay, you know what, I

766
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,400
Speaker 1: had a couple of pickups left for the week, and

767
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 1: I have Bubba Chandler. Now that being said, am I

768
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 1: expecting a hell of a lot from him? Probably not,

769
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,200
Speaker 1: But I do think that this rests almost solely on

770
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 1: the Pirates. Like the Griffin call up is kind of surprising.

771
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 1: I didn't know they knew how to promote prospects. It's

772
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: good to know that they know how to put those

773
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: paperwork through to the league, but I don't know what

774
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,440
Speaker 1: the hell they're doing at this point. Bubba Chandler has

775
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:46,799
Speaker 1: made like a hundred starts in the minor leagues, and

776
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's anything that's gonna make this

777
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 1: make sense to me. Oh, it's August fifteenth. He's gonna

778
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 1: get called up. Oh that was a couple days ago.

779
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:54,239
Speaker 3: Now.

780
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 1: We were saying that the whole season that we are

781
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 1: waiting around for Bubba, waiting around for bab Bah. When

782
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,719
Speaker 1: he gets that first start, there is gonna be mad

783
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 1: dash of the waiver wire to pick him up. I

784
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 1: can tell you that right now.

785
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,279
Speaker 2: And I would avoid it, and I would avoid it

786
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 2: at this point with what I've seen this year. Not interested.

787
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,280
Speaker 2: I would rather Andrew. You said you got that spot,

788
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 2: give me Andrew Painter to speculate over Bubba Chandler. That's

789
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,839
Speaker 2: where I would be with it. I would have said

790
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:18,240
Speaker 2: if it was early in the season, like a Jonah

791
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,360
Speaker 2: Tong or something. But unfortunately, no Bubba Chandler for me.

792
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 2: So there's only one Bubba we care about, and that

793
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 2: is Casey Bubba.

794
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 1: That's right, all right.

795
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:28,439
Speaker 2: There's some prospecting updates for you for the week. Little

796
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,399
Speaker 2: three up and three down. Din Kreamer on the up

797
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 2: seven innings of shutout ball, striking out seven in a

798
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 2: win against the Astros. Joe Adell homer, three runs, four

799
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 2: RBIs three for four continues that breakout on the season,

800
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 2: and Jored Westberg four for five, homer, two runs and

801
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 2: five RBI. On the down, Junior cameronaro Ho so close

802
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 2: to a sinko, stinko, but a golden sombrero will do.

803
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,479
Speaker 2: Oh for four. Three of those strikeouts came against Logan

804
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,799
Speaker 2: web who was really good. Jose Burriels led ten hits,

805
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,719
Speaker 2: six earned runs and a lost of the Rangers, and

806
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 2: George Kirby twelve hit seven and earned runs three walks

807
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:05,880
Speaker 2: against the Mets. Just got blasted and you hate to

808
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 2: see that, especially Mariner fans, but also the Kirby crew here.

809
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,840
Speaker 2: On the injuries, Josh Hater said that it is unlikely

810
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 2: he will return to the mount again during the regular season,

811
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 2: but could join the Astros in the postseason. So there's

812
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 2: a big plus. I haven't paid attention who has been

813
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 2: the save lock. Has it been a bray you or

814
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 2: has it been SUSA, because I was talking a lot

815
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 2: about Bennett, but I know bray is more of the

816
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 2: closer stuff.

817
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, they went on Saturday, SUSA blew a save and

818
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 1: Brian King got a hold and the win went to

819
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:41,520
Speaker 1: Niel Della Santos where I had Hayter yesterday in my

820
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 1: weekly fab Leagues, I dropped hater for Brian A bray.

821
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 2: You across the board for what it's worth, Okay, I

822
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,840
Speaker 2: think that's the right play. Also on the Astros, Jordan

823
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 2: Alvarez reportedly could return within the next week and will

824
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:59,399
Speaker 2: begin a rehab assignment tomorrow. Hould your breath, everybody chill out.

825
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 2: If we see him on the field tomorrow, we'll get

826
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,919
Speaker 2: more excited. But that could mean he could be coming

827
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,319
Speaker 2: back next week, So I mean, shocking a bit of news. Also,

828
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 2: game has assets like three times I thought I mentioned it,

829
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:12,879
Speaker 2: but Jacob Wilson also is close to returning. I don't

830
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 2: know if we had this on the sheet, but Jacob

831
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,880
Speaker 2: Wilson is I think playing in games and looks like

832
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 2: he could be back later this week. So two guys

833
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 2: very important that we've lost for a bit of time,

834
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 2: And you know, fingers crossed. Alvarez is just going to

835
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 2: be a boost for anybody that's in a playoff run

836
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 2: that still hasn't of course, so good stuff there. Kyle

837
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 2: Stowers has mentioned is going to miss several weeks with

838
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:37,480
Speaker 2: a Grade one left side strain. Brutal, Absolutely brutal. I mean,

839
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,359
Speaker 2: you know, you get the Zach Willers Wheelers of the world,

840
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 2: and then you're losing a guy like Kyle Stowers who has,

841
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 2: like you know, held up your teams, I think so much.

842
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:47,319
Speaker 2: So this is a brutal one getting to the point

843
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 2: where people want to cut him. I hate seeing this.

844
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 2: Christian Xavier had to leave Sunday start due to a

845
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 2: reported illness. Velocity was also down, so something to be

846
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 2: on the lookout for. Jackson Merrill considered day to day

847
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 2: with an ankle injury that was originally sustained on Friday

848
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 2: night and caused him to leave Sunday's games, So that

849
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 2: would be another reason that question we had earlier about,

850
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 2: like do you want Merrill? Maybe not? Cardinals out a

851
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,839
Speaker 2: couple of dudes. Lars Newbar removed from Sunday's game due

852
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 2: to muscle cramping and Victor Scott placed on the ten day,

853
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,760
Speaker 2: I over a left ankle sprain. They brought up Nathan Church.

854
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 1: I wouldn't.

855
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 2: I'm not excited to jump on the Nathan Church band.

856
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,400
Speaker 2: Josh Lout missed both games over the weekend due to

857
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 2: an oblique Titaness. Jake Berger had to leave Sunday's game

858
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 2: to left risk discomfort. Will you or Bray you left

859
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,240
Speaker 2: Sunday due to calf tightness after also getting that weird

860
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 2: homer that he hit, and then who the hell was

861
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 2: it that? Yeah, Dane Meyers. Dane Meyers like caught it

862
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,239
Speaker 2: and then bounced and then fell off, and William Brady

863
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 2: got the homer, and then the Red Sox officially announcing

864
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:50,319
Speaker 2: Marcella Mayor undergoing season ending risk surgery. So lots of

865
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:52,840
Speaker 2: injury stuff as we're walking into this week. This is

866
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 2: the time of the year and that's why you got

867
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 2: to make like super big tough decisions. All right, let's

868
00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 2: do some best bets. Let's look at what we're betting

869
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 2: for the week. Mister Joe Rico, why don't you kick

870
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:03,880
Speaker 2: us off with your best bets for today?

871
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 1: Now, I realize people will see Blue Jay's money line

872
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 1: and think this guy is such a bloody Homer and

873
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 1: I get it, But the Blue Jay's at plus money

874
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 1: against the Pirates today. I know Paul Skeens is pitching,

875
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 1: but he's going up against Kevin Gosman, who is no

876
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 1: slouch himself, and Kevin Gosman has actually been very good.

877
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 1: He's pushing for a sub one whip at this point,

878
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 1: and Paul Skeens does not exactly get a ton of

879
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 1: run support, as we've come to see over this year.

880
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 1: So Blue Jay's money line plus one hundred. I will

881
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 1: take that every day. Kyle Freeland over three and a

882
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:32,920
Speaker 1: half strikeouts, this one probably looks very weird as well,

883
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,239
Speaker 1: going up against the Dodgers, of all teams. What am

884
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: I thinking? But the Dodgers have not really been the

885
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: Dodgers lately. Offensively, they haven't been bad, But the big

886
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:42,319
Speaker 1: thing that stands out is that over the last month,

887
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,880
Speaker 1: the Dodgers have the third highest strikeout rate in baseball

888
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 1: at twenty five percent. So three and a half is

889
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 1: not high number, but I think that this is something

890
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 1: that we can definitely see Kyle Freeland get over, even

891
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:54,400
Speaker 1: though he's not a guy who tends to light up

892
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 1: the strikeout numbers. And then the Seattle first five money

893
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: line Logan Gilbert versus Ranger Suarez has been struggling kind

894
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:03,959
Speaker 1: of a lot recently, and some people are even dropping

895
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:06,759
Speaker 1: him in shallower leagues little bit Juice minus one twenty,

896
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 1: but Logan Gilbert versus Rangers Suarez feels like a pretty

897
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:09,799
Speaker 1: good bet to make.

898
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 2: All right, I'm down. I went over and took a

899
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,800
Speaker 2: look over on Betting Pros because, as mentioned before, obviously

900
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 2: the Betting Pros app you guys should pick up. But

901
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:20,880
Speaker 2: on the betting pro side, we've got a couple of

902
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 2: new markets available. We've got hit Run RBI, we've got

903
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 2: player outs which you should go check out, and kind

904
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 2: of new modeling on all of the props. So one

905
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 2: of these is going to play to those first up.

906
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 2: I did though. This one kind of sparked me. This

907
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 2: was at the top of the ev ratings on Betting

908
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 2: Pros prop cheat sheet for strikeouts today and it was

909
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 2: Jack Lighter at three and a half over, which I

910
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 2: really like that one. I think it was sixty person

911
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 2: it hit in like three of the last five. It's

912
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 2: a low strikeout number. I was very tempted to go

913
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 2: all like anti Joe bets, to just take like Michael

914
00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 2: Harris and Jack Lighter or whatever. I could again tim

915
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 2: but low strikeout total for Jack Lighter today at three

916
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 2: and a half over, so I like that play. This

917
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,839
Speaker 2: is the play that really stood out to me. If

918
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:10,439
Speaker 2: you go and check out on the prop cheat sheet,

919
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:14,480
Speaker 2: look at the hit run RBI number here Kerry Carpenter

920

Speaker 2: one point five hit run RBI over hitting five straight

921
00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,239

00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 2: Kerry Carpenter has hit this in five straight games, going

927
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,279

928
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 2: so this is a great bet. And then I put

Speaker 2: together a little first five money line parlay Atlanta and

930
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 2: the Dodgers. So this is backing Strider, this is backing Yamamoto.

00:42:57,760 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 2: twenty nine or thirty or something more than Joe. So

958
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 2: that's all matters. A Rico home run call today? Where

959
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 2: are you going?

960
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 1: Yeah? I also saw some nice numbers on Carrie Carpenter

961
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:08,879
Speaker 1: looking at a couple of different projection models. I look

962
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:11,320
Speaker 1: at again Spencer Araghetti today, so I'm taking him for

963
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: the home run call. And I also cannot believe that

964
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:14,719
Speaker 1: I dropped him in my home league a month ago

965
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 1: and kept Lawrence Butler instead of him.

966
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 2: Ooh that hurts all right. So o Joe is at

967
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 2: thirty two? Oh, Joe has more than me? Is that real?

968
00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 2: Ojoe has perpetuity. That's what's killing me, all right? So

969
00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:26,520
Speaker 2: I got to pick it up this so never mind,

970
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 2: I don't have more than Joe. So that's a travesty

971
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 2: that's happening. I'm gonna go with Akunyo. Counya is back.

972
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,080
Speaker 2: They get the White Sox today. I'm gonna go with

973
