Speaker 1: we get seventy degree weather and then yesterday forty degrees
Speaker 1: in raining. Today fifty degrees in raining. Sucks raining every day.

Speaker 1: But Greg, why do you like the shirt? You don't
Speaker 1: like video games? Have the game way back in the day?
Speaker 1: Did you? Of course? So how the hell did you
Speaker 1: have a game Boy? And how Pokemon? That's a reasonable question. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: no, no no, See the game way I had was like
Speaker 1: the old one or the original? Okay, yeah, Pokemon red
Speaker 1: version came out for the original game Boy. I never
Speaker 1: played Pokemon. That was that came out for the original
Speaker 1: game silver one. Yeah, I still own my original game
Speaker 1: Boy I got I remember playing. I had version on it,
Speaker 1: So I had that game Boy. Had one more game
Speaker 1: Boy after that. Oh so you yeah you went through
Speaker 1: my color? Yeah? Color? That's ended there. That that was it? Okay?
Speaker 1: I mean I have like every Nintendo system that was
Speaker 1: ever made. What did you think? So? What did you
Speaker 1: think of a Game of Thrones? Chris? Overall, I thought
Speaker 1: that episode was good. I you know, everything leading up
Speaker 1: to kind of rushed. So that's that's the thing that
Speaker 1: bothers me. They should have extended it a little further
Speaker 1: and went a little more in depth. We're all in agreement. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you know, I'm happy the way. Uh. A lot
Speaker 1: of things panned out, especially obviously Jamie and my favorite character.
Speaker 1: He got what he wanted. He did, he ended his
Speaker 1: career in a good way. He killed a guy who
Speaker 1: was really cocky and I hated that guy. Anyway, you're
Speaker 1: on so happy about all that. Really, it's not like
Speaker 1: Joshua Jackson. I just everybody downstairs. He looks like a
Speaker 1: beefed up Joshua Jackson. There's no Josha Jackson's milk. You're
Speaker 1: gonna assume you're not talking about the Phoenix suns. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: just right, you're on grad. Yeah she doesn't. I'm looking
Speaker 1: it up now. Yeah, that's what I thought of the
Speaker 1: first time I saw him. So what is Joshua Jackson
Speaker 1: actually in because he looks so he's he's Mighty Ducks.
Speaker 1: He was a star might Ucks. Yes, Creek, the Skulls,
Speaker 1: The Affair, Yeah a lot. Yeah. I always wanted to
Speaker 1: watch the movie, The Affair TV show he did. I'm
Speaker 1: thinking about something else, and you're on didn't fit Game
Speaker 1: of Thrones like that character that guy. Oh Kingo watches
Speaker 1: this show the Affair. That's what I don't watch it.
Speaker 1: I've seen it like on in the house before. That's
Speaker 1: why it sounded familiar. I thought it was something else.
Speaker 1: Cercy should have got it worse, I guess, but that
Speaker 1: wouldn't complete Jamie stories. That would be That's what I
Speaker 1: wanted to um uh and the first preview to tweet
Speaker 1: I did so. One person really liked it last night.
Speaker 1: And to those complaining, uh, this person Chris said this.
Speaker 1: Everyone complaining can unite and write the final book together.
Speaker 1: I already a title for you, Game of Groans Throng
Speaker 1: Throng of Cries and Gripes. Oh uh do you like that? Venture?
Speaker 1: What do you have that? Sweet? I kind of like it?
Speaker 1: You know that sweet? It did retweet that? No? No,
Speaker 1: not because I don't. I can understand some people complaining.
Speaker 1: That's everyone complaining, can unite and write the final book together.
Speaker 1: I already had the title for you, Game of Groans
Speaker 1: Throng of Cries and Gripes. It's all. It's actually decently creative.
Speaker 1: Greg Throng Throng of Cries and Grapes the original book,
Speaker 1: how much thought do you think you put it in?
Speaker 1: That through? Not much much, but I could be lying
Speaker 1: game of groans, throng of cries and gripes. If said
Speaker 1: tweet or doesn't happen to contact you throughout the show,
Speaker 1: let me know what they were sponsores, because I would
Speaker 1: love to know. You gotta remember, it's a show. So yeah,
Speaker 1: you can't be too hard on it. They've done a
Speaker 1: great job to to this season. Really, it just shows
Speaker 1: to me over you could tell that that's me. That's
Speaker 1: the saddest part, yeah, is that you could tell that
Speaker 1: they just all kind of wanted to be over. And
Speaker 1: I don't know if it starts at the top of
Speaker 1: the writers, but maybe it's the actors and the actresses too.
Speaker 1: Maybe they just want to move on and think about it.
Speaker 1: They've been they've been doing this for the past almost
Speaker 1: ten years, so it's a lot of time and emotion
Speaker 1: invested into, you know, one role and one show, and
Speaker 1: maybe everyone just kind of wants to move on. But
Speaker 1: it sucks. It feels like we're kind of being uh
Speaker 1: let down a little bit here. It feels like there's
Speaker 1: a lot on the table that we still need to
Speaker 1: know about. But like I was saying to man, that's
Speaker 1: why you go out and read the book. You gotta
Speaker 1: read the books if you want more detail. That's what
Speaker 1: we have to do. And now you says I'm interesting
Speaker 1: before earlier, UMM about how the writers are moving on
Speaker 1: to Star Wars. That seems like they're just kind of
Speaker 1: ready to do that. Probably that makes sense, and everyone's
Speaker 1: already making jokes about it. Imagine you are the writers
Speaker 1: to ruin both Game of Thrones and Star Wars in
Speaker 1: your lifetime. It's not good to be You don't want
Speaker 1: to be known as that. He didn't. I wouldn't say
Speaker 1: they ruined, but like the people who are overly critical
Speaker 1: of the show right now, so it's over. This is
Speaker 1: worse than the end of Dexter. Oh my god, that
Speaker 1: nothing's worse than Honestly, I didn't even get there. I
Speaker 1: know a lot of people did, but totally, I'm very
Speaker 1: I'm the most pessimistic person. The ending of the Dexter
Speaker 1: was the worst day you've seen it? Yes, you want
Speaker 1: to tell you what it is? I love the show. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because I got to see No, no, you should watch
Speaker 1: you should watch No, no, no, no, you should watch it.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you that. Did you watch the end
Speaker 1: of season four? By the way, because yes, I'll tell
Speaker 1: you what see No, I think everything kind of goes
Speaker 1: downhill aft to that correct. The season I stopped watching
Speaker 1: was the first episode of the season where she died.
Speaker 1: What's her name? The season that Rita died. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: episode if the episode I stopped watching. Okay, so that's
Speaker 1: it's less episode season four. The last episode of season
Speaker 1: four is read Dies. That was one of the biggest
Speaker 1: like oh my god moment. Yeah, well, then I watched
Speaker 1: the next episode. I feel like you kind of reiterated
Speaker 1: a lot of that episode. Then it might have that
Speaker 1: was the first episode of season five. I remember a
Speaker 1: lot that happened to do with that. I remember the
Speaker 1: car crash or something on the highway. Was a Dexter
Speaker 1: got to car crash with somebody I don't know, But
Speaker 1: after that I think might have been Dexter. Actually, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it was, And I did right episode I stopped,
Speaker 1: so it got built up anyway, so instead of being
Speaker 1: built up like they're all gonna find him, nobody was
Speaker 1: really searching for him other than Liguerta, who he later killed. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so it ended he thought like all right, and he
Speaker 1: had to go to jail or he get killed right,
Speaker 1: true story. Assisted had to do something with it, right,
Speaker 1: He fakes his death and he comes a lumberjack. No,
Speaker 1: he doesn't want to kill anymore the way I mean,
Speaker 1: there's like a there's there's obviously there's there's a lesson
Speaker 1: to be learned from this, Like he has to live
Speaker 1: in exile by himself for the rest of his life
Speaker 1: because of what he did, and that's yeah, you can't
Speaker 1: get away with like he did. He went into exiled
Speaker 1: becoming a lumberjack. But yeah, that's how he really got
Speaker 1: the rest of his life alone. So I read that Showtime.
Speaker 1: I don't know how true this is or not. I
Speaker 1: read that Showtime wouldn't let the creators kill dexter Off
Speaker 1: just in case they wanted to ever bring it back
Speaker 1: and do a movie or something. That's dumb. I don't know,
Speaker 1: that's sure not. But at the same time, no one
Speaker 1: probably would have expected that ending. It was terrible. It
Speaker 1: was panned. Do you guys agree to disagree? I didn't
Speaker 1: hate it, you know a most people hate. You want
Speaker 1: to know the worst I'm in the minority. You want
Speaker 1: to know the worst ending? I should've ever watched? Seth
Speaker 1: brans No, no, no, do you guys, ever watched The Killing? No? No,
Speaker 1: I heard of that. So The Killing was a show
Speaker 1: on AMC and it started Miriel Enos and Joel Is
Speaker 1: Joe Kimman kid im in there like alas of stuff
Speaker 1: that you know, Frank, he's awesome. This guy, you're like
Speaker 1: guy right now? Mm hmm, not the way that he
Speaker 1: looks there. Maybe maybe in a different role. So it
Speaker 1: started these two people and basically, first episode, a little
Speaker 1: girl gets killed. Right, It's all right, So they're the
Speaker 1: detectives and they all the personal demons or whatever. Who
Speaker 1: killed the girls. The whole show is about the whole
Speaker 1: first season. The first season is about who killed the girl? Right?
Speaker 1: So of course after every episode do you think it's
Speaker 1: somebody else? There's all these red herrings and whatever? Who
Speaker 1: killed the girl? He hits the final episode. They don't
Speaker 1: tell you. You gotta watch season too to find out
Speaker 1: who killed the girl? What. Yeah, the whole thing is
Speaker 1: who killed Rosie Larson? And after the season one's over,
Speaker 1: they don't. They don't tell you who kills Rosie Larson.
Speaker 1: The entire first first season meant nothing. You have the
Speaker 1: watch season to to find out. At build up, I
Speaker 1: said this I'm never watching the show ever again. And
Speaker 1: I didn't. All right, well, I mean they leave you
Speaker 1: on to the cliffhanger. They're trying to get you to
Speaker 1: come back, and so you don't understand. It was got
Speaker 1: so much heat for this because every billboard was like,
Speaker 1: who killed Rosie Larson? But you never found out who
Speaker 1: killed Rose. You can't even seasonal cliffhanger like that, where
Speaker 1: the whole purpose of the first season was to figure
Speaker 1: that out. It wasn't like she died in the last episode.
Speaker 1: You're like trying to find out who killed her the
Speaker 1: first episode she dies ten episodes later, you don't know
Speaker 1: who killed her? Joke? But have you seen any reviews
Speaker 1: about it since then? Like it was so a lot
Speaker 1: of people felt like me, it was just like, this
Speaker 1: is the most pathetic they I've ever seen in my life.
Speaker 1: And I don't forget who killed her now, But um,
Speaker 1: you got a lot of backlash even season two they
Speaker 1: said it wasn't good. It was not because I was
Speaker 1: wondering if they redeemed themselves. No, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: that's some baseball. Baseball's baseball. What did you, Chris? Would
Speaker 1: you would you watch this weekend? Anything? Anything? Stand now, Um,
Speaker 1: Josh Bell obviously, Josh Bell can't stop on stop and stop,
Speaker 1: won't stop beast obviously. Uh, Gelito start stood out to me.
Speaker 1: I picked him up right before the start, and I'm
Speaker 1: happy I did. I think he could be a long
Speaker 1: term option, So I'm on that. Uh, and the Yankees
Speaker 1: obviously taken two out of three. Huge start, Yesterka to
Speaker 1: not just talking about it from like a Yankee fan
Speaker 1: of perspective, Blake Snell was still awesome, although he ran
Speaker 1: into some trouble here. Just watching him mow people down
Speaker 1: and he had like seven strikeouts in the first three innings.
Speaker 1: I mean the guy who was just absolutely um yeah,
Speaker 1: he was awesome, But I mean Tanaka. You really needed
Speaker 1: to see a nice little bounce back performance from Tanaka here,
Speaker 1: and you could argue, look, Tanaka could awaken complete game yesterday, Greg,
Speaker 1: what do you have seventy five pitches from seven or
Speaker 1: something like that, so he could have gone a little
Speaker 1: bit further. But if he were just playing it safe,
Speaker 1: because it was like it was about to be like
Speaker 1: the fourth time through the order, so they, you know,
Speaker 1: the entire raised lineup had seen this guy like three
Speaker 1: times already. So I think they were just playing it
Speaker 1: safe and Aaron Bhuton has always kind of been that way.
Speaker 1: But nice little bounce back performance here first, Occer, I
Speaker 1: think most people needed to see. That makes you feel
Speaker 1: better about owning him again, whether he's your SP three,
Speaker 1: r SP four, um, whatever it might be. Greg, something
Speaker 1: that stood out to me and we should talk about
Speaker 1: it now, especially in deeper leagues if he's available, letting
Speaker 1: us Diaz. I find him interesting because Josale two days
Speaker 1: on the injured list and let Us Diez is playing
Speaker 1: well right now and he's batting in the middle of
Speaker 1: a really good lineup with the Houston Astro. So if
Speaker 1: you play in the deeper league, you're playing an al
Speaker 1: only league, or you're playing a fifteen team, makes you
Speaker 1: need a middle infielder for maybe the next week or two,
Speaker 1: or if you're the Josale two owner, you just want
Speaker 1: to handcuff it. Lett M d s. Greg. I think
Speaker 1: it's a really sneaky pick up right now, Diaz, all right,
Speaker 1: sure listen, Sure it was good Louis for half a year. Yeah,
Speaker 1: half year. I mean I had him throughout that whole
Speaker 1: time and for that streak, for that and it was
Speaker 1: a long streak where he was really good. I thought
Speaker 1: he was gonna be something, So I'm not against it.
Speaker 1: You know, can we address the elephant in the room
Speaker 1: un initials ms Malex Smith, I don't see an issue.
Speaker 1: I wrote on my Patreon yesterday that if you play
Speaker 1: in a twelve team league, UM, I would recommend putting
Speaker 1: like seven to nine percent of your fab on him.
Speaker 1: So being being pretty aggressive, and a few people in
Speaker 1: the chat today are are talking about picking up Alex Smith,
Speaker 1: and a couple of people tweeting me talking about picking
Speaker 1: up Alex Smith. Absolutely raking in the minors since he's
Speaker 1: gone down. He has like eight stolen bases, he's hitting
Speaker 1: over at three fifty. The Mariners sent Brandon Bishop back
Speaker 1: down to the miners yesterday. All indications seemed that Alex
Speaker 1: Smith is gonna be up today or in the very
Speaker 1: near future. So again, like what I said about him
Speaker 1: at the time when we you know, got into a
Speaker 1: shouting match over Alex Smith, is I think he's a
Speaker 1: legitimate hitter, Like, is he a you know, three fifty hitter,
Speaker 1: Is he like a batting top? No? But can he
Speaker 1: be a two seventy hitter serviceable? He's much better than
Speaker 1: the sub two d batting average we saw early on season,
Speaker 1: and he's one of the fastest guys in the league.
Speaker 1: And the Mariners just, you know, what are they playing for?
Speaker 1: They need to find ways to generate offense. I think
Speaker 1: they're just gonna let him and d Gordon. D Gordon
Speaker 1: who could be back at some point who didn't land
Speaker 1: on the I l I think they're just gonna give
Speaker 1: these guys, you know, free, free reign on the basis.
Speaker 1: So if Alex Smith is out there and you need
Speaker 1: stolen basis or just a five outfit of the league,
Speaker 1: just pick this guy up anyway, even if you don't
Speaker 1: meet him. If you play in the league where stolen
Speaker 1: bases are a thing, you should pick this guy up
Speaker 1: because once he comes back and he performs well, even
Speaker 1: if you don't need him, you could just trade him away.
Speaker 1: Remember this was a guy being drafted at the top
Speaker 1: forty outfielder this year. Venture Yeah, and listen, you're picking
Speaker 1: up both the waivewise. But what's really interesting is it's
Speaker 1: and you guys have a bet. Yeah, I think I
Speaker 1: think he's gonna be up in the next I think
Speaker 1: he's gonna be up either by the or getting real close,
Speaker 1: so they do. Yeah, all I have to do is
Speaker 1: survival one series. I think you could do it. It's
Speaker 1: just have to survive this one series and most of
Speaker 1: the like when he gets called up on Friday, when
Speaker 1: it's like six or seventeenth whatever it is Thursday. Oh,
Speaker 1: and you know what, I'll also bring this up to Greg.
Speaker 1: Something else I noticed over the weekend. Oh good thing
Speaker 1: you didn't see me, because many expletives going on. Almost
Speaker 1: ripped my hair out. A man by the name of
Speaker 1: Daniel Murphy. Again, where's Daniel Murphy? Everybody? Only five games
Speaker 1: this week too. I'm benching him in the least where
Speaker 1: I own him. I'm benching him. I'm benching him for
Speaker 1: Ronnie Rodriguez. Ronnie Rodrigue who had two bombs on Saturday.
Speaker 1: And when I mean bombs, this guy hit a four
Speaker 1: hunder fifty ft bombs like the upper deck and target field.
Speaker 1: The guy crushed it. He is getting it done right now.
Speaker 1: He's hitting the ball hart putting it in the air.
Speaker 1: He's a smaller dude for a middle infielder. He packs
Speaker 1: a lot of punch. He plays seven games this week.
Speaker 1: Daniel Murphy plays five games. They're all on the road,
Speaker 1: and I believe he faces three lefties. Yeah, Bud Black,
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on and stuff like, Look,
Speaker 1: there might be something going on under under you know,
Speaker 1: under the radar that we don't really know about. Maybe
Speaker 1: Daniel Murphy's still dealing with an injury. Most likely, Maybe
Speaker 1: they really just they don't want to push him too
Speaker 1: hard because he just came back from an injury. And
Speaker 1: I know he kind of had something about like a
Speaker 1: back discomfort last week, so they might not just be
Speaker 1: not pushing him too hard. But is it a coincidence
Speaker 1: that every time he gets rest it against a left
Speaker 1: handed picture? Is this guy just a platoon player at
Speaker 1: this point? He came in yesterday against a lefty with
Speaker 1: basses loaded, hit a pinch hit, basically double venture. I'm
Speaker 1: mentioning him this week. If you own Daniel Murphy, are
Speaker 1: you mentioned him? I don't, but um I would, yes, Yes.
Speaker 1: I think Bud Black games are on the road, and
Speaker 1: I believe three of them against the lefty. So I
Speaker 1: think Bud Black's having a tough time managing this lineup.
Speaker 1: Why do I still have three lefties and five games? Greg?
Speaker 1: You might only get three or four games out of
Speaker 1: Danie Murphy this week? Why do I still own Ryan McMahon.
Speaker 1: I dropped someone? You know my friends text me yesterday?
Speaker 1: Can I drop Ryan McNett. He didn't well yesterday, actually
Speaker 1: did all right? I don't know. It's like he's still
Speaker 1: sitting sometimes in favor from Garrett Hanson against lefties, overalls
Speaker 1: performing even when he plays against Wrighty's. He had all
Speaker 1: home games last week, still didn't perform. Look if you
Speaker 1: need to win, if you're starting to fall behind, I'm
Speaker 1: two and four. I can't afford to have these guys

Speaker 1: hundred nine six one thirty six thirty one, eight hundred
Speaker 1: nine six one thirty six thirty one, eight hundred nine
Speaker 1: six one three six three one Fantasy Sports today. The
Speaker 1: red Sox ferry came of a you know, when did
Speaker 1: this happen? Right? I mean they're averaging, uh in the
Speaker 1: last eleven games somewhere a little little over six runs
Speaker 1: per game. Uh. So I think that they're talked about,
Speaker 1: you know, the Rays being there all year long, Yankees
Speaker 1: hanging on, you know, even though all their injuries. But
Speaker 1: let's not forget about the Red Sox Saturday's eight am
Speaker 1: Eastern on the Fantasy Sports networking on your popular podcast Providers,
Speaker 1: It's funny that you mentioned elephants in the room, Frank,
Speaker 1: and you mentioned Malex Smith Daniel Murphy. You don't mention
Speaker 1: the real elephant we haven't talked about yet, and that's
Speaker 1: the massive injury to Tyler Glass. Nights think and Chris,
Speaker 1: we were putting Tyler Glass Now in that top tier
Speaker 1: category with some of these really really good pictures. You
Speaker 1: were all in and I didn't see that one coming.
Speaker 1: Can't predict injury gets forearms strained to Tyler a Glass
Speaker 1: now on Friday night, I believe, and we comes out
Speaker 1: over the weekend. It looks like there is no significant damage,
Speaker 1: which is a good news, but he is going to
Speaker 1: be out for four to six weeks with that forearm strain.
Speaker 1: Will obviously talk to UM dr A about that. But
Speaker 1: crushing blow. If you even running Tyler Glass now, you
Speaker 1: obviously um give me the timetable. You look at the
Speaker 1: All Star break for Tyler Glass now and you wonder
Speaker 1: if he's the same guy when he comes back. That's
Speaker 1: always the question mark. That you're gonna have will he
Speaker 1: find it again? That sucks, Chris, especially with a young
Speaker 1: guy who was just starting to, you know, harness his skills.
Speaker 1: It's tough. But listen, when if you own him right,
Speaker 1: the only thing you can do is il stas him.
Speaker 1: At least you can I l stas him. Pick somebody
Speaker 1: else up if you have which you know, you can't
Speaker 1: drop him. You can't do obviously, you can't him. Might
Speaker 1: be a nice little opportunity if you're playing a Dynasty
Speaker 1: league and you're in a rebuilding year right now, to
Speaker 1: try and buy low on Tyler Glass now something that
Speaker 1: I would look into doing. Um, yeah, he's dealing with
Speaker 1: the forum training. At least he didn't have to have
Speaker 1: any surgery he has shut down. It looks like a
Speaker 1: four to six week timetable. A lot of people were asking, well,
Speaker 1: you know who's gonna get the call for Tampa Bay?
Speaker 1: Is there gonna be some significant call up? And I
Speaker 1: don't know that there is, because Brent Honeywell has had
Speaker 1: a setback and he hasn't pitched yet and he's still
Speaker 1: working his way from Tommy John surgery, Brendan McKay, who
Speaker 1: is there like Shohyotani esque prospect in the minors where
Speaker 1: he's a d H but he's also a left handed pitcher.
Speaker 1: He's only in Double A, and his e t A
Speaker 1: is more so next year than this year. I don't
Speaker 1: think they're gonna rush him. The only one that I
Speaker 1: could think of if you're playing a deeper league ale
Speaker 1: only you want to stash him for now. Former top
Speaker 1: prospect also coming back from Tommy John Surgery Greg and
Speaker 1: that's Jose daily Own. I was never really a big
Speaker 1: fan of his um. There just wasn't enough strikeout stuff
Speaker 1: there for me. But he's already made a few starts
Speaker 1: in the miners and he's probably the next man out.
Speaker 1: Like realistically, they probably just go with more opener strategies
Speaker 1: and they'll use Ryan Yarbro, and they'll use Janni Torinos
Speaker 1: and Jalen Beaks. But if there is a prospect that
Speaker 1: you just want to keep your eye on, it's Jose
Speaker 1: dal Leon. So did da Leon come back from home
Speaker 1: time as John Surgery as you mentioned the name that
Speaker 1: that I thought would get called up, and I'm trying
Speaker 1: to see how he's been in the miners this year.
Speaker 1: Shane very very bad. I thought Jacob Frio would be
Speaker 1: the guy because you know, he had some prospects, had agreed,
Speaker 1: a lot of people were really excited about him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was last year right that he that there was
Speaker 1: a shine on him. And he's two years ago, I
Speaker 1: think when he got called up originally and that's when
Speaker 1: he was dominating last year think drafted. But there's that's
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Going into last year, there was there
Speaker 1: we shine on him. People liked it. He was bad
Speaker 1: last year, got option triple A, started the year in
Speaker 1: Triple A. This year he's been awful caper and has
Speaker 1: been excellent, but the ear as over seven right now
Speaker 1: in TRIPLEED. It's been very bad. Yeah, So Jose daily
Speaker 1: yone is pitching at high A ball right now through
Speaker 1: two starts, he has at three point eight. Is that
Speaker 1: rehab in high A ball or that's just where he is? No,
Speaker 1: that's rehab because he was much further along than this,
Speaker 1: Like he was on the precipice of like being a
Speaker 1: major leaguer before he he had to get Tommy John surgery.
Speaker 1: Like this was a guy who was consistently in Triple
Speaker 1: A already. So John to rehab assignment kind of similar
Speaker 1: to what you know mcguest to know was doing where
Speaker 1: he started in high A. Then he's gonna work his
Speaker 1: way up to double A. He starts there, starts to
Speaker 1: triple A. Um uh. I saw projections on CBS for
Speaker 1: him as early as this week. I don't know that
Speaker 1: he's gonna be back this week, but he was someone
Speaker 1: else that I also wrote about all my Patreon that
Speaker 1: if he's available in your twelve team league, he is.
Speaker 1: He's Joey Gallo with the injury prone label. That's that's
Speaker 1: who he is. Like if you look at his bad
Speaker 1: ball profile, he hits the ball extremely hard. Since he's
Speaker 1: I'm into the league is hard hit rate is fourth
Speaker 1: highest in baseball, So since it's heart of there's only
Speaker 1: three hitters that are ahead of him in terms of
Speaker 1: his hard hit rate that would be That would be JD. Martinez,
Speaker 1: Trevor Story, and Paul Gelschman. So he's in a good company.
Speaker 1: You know, he hits the ball really hard, adventure but
Speaker 1: struggles with strikeouts. So very similar to Joey Gallo. Joey
Speaker 1: Galloa have a low batting average but gives you a
Speaker 1: lot of pop. I've admittedly always been a Miguelson no supporter,
Speaker 1: but he's a knucklehead man. It's he either has something
Speaker 1: going on off the field or injuries. Again, he hurt
Speaker 1: his heel celebrating in the Dominican League when they won
Speaker 1: the championship. Your job is to be ready for your
Speaker 1: real job for the Minnesota Twins. I know that you
Speaker 1: love playing, and you're playing in other leagues in the
Speaker 1: off season. All right, I get it. You wanna you
Speaker 1: want to hone your skills, you want to get better.
Speaker 1: That's fine, but that's how you hurt yourself. He's just
Speaker 1: a knucklehead man. But I've always been a big supporter
Speaker 1: of mcguelson. No, I think the talent is there. The
Speaker 1: talent is definitely there. The power is real. Like you know,
Speaker 1: obviously Gallo. I think Gallows obviously maybe a better version
Speaker 1: of him because the walk rate for Gallo is better. Uh.
Speaker 1: I just don't I can't buying into a snow right now.
Speaker 1: The injuries coupled with the mental capacity, I'm afraid of snow. Uh.
Speaker 1: If I'm really hurting at third base or whatever, I'm
Speaker 1: hurting at a position, maybe I'll take a chance on
Speaker 1: it in a fifteen team or maybe even twelve teamer,
Speaker 1: But you know, I got Michael Chavis something like that.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not looking at it that way, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm just not. I'm worried about him, Like I need
Speaker 1: to see stuff first, you know what I mean. I
Speaker 1: want to see him on the field doing his thing right,
Speaker 1: he's should that be higher? Probably? Yeah? In this juice ball,
Speaker 1: I mean, this is the guy who could come back
Speaker 1: five home runs the rest of the way. It wouldn't
Speaker 1: surprise me. You mentioned Michael Chavis, who had a good
Speaker 1: day yesterday, but he was on an over slump. He
Speaker 1: got very cold. What's gonna happen? What I was gonna
Speaker 1: say was when a guy gets cold like that, you're
Speaker 1: nervous about him being pulled out of the line up,
Speaker 1: something happening. And they stuck with him the Red Sox,
Speaker 1: which I was very good, yes, and he you know,
Speaker 1: maybe he's coming back out of it. And it's good
Speaker 1: to see that sign too. And his numbers overall, right,
Speaker 1: so you knew he was gonna struggle a little bit
Speaker 1: with strike out strikes out twenty six point seven percent
Speaker 1: at a time. But vent for something that you always
Speaker 1: hang your hat on. And I agree with this. If
Speaker 1: you're a young player and you strike out a lot,
Speaker 1: at least be able to walk a lot. And that's
Speaker 1: exactly what Michael cha Case does. He has a sixteen
Speaker 1: point three percent of walk great, which is just massive.
Speaker 1: It's huge for a young player. Yeah, I'm all over.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I jumped on a merarly third
Speaker 1: base second base eligible. Um young has that high ceiling
Speaker 1: that you cove it especially and keep his leagues and uh,
Speaker 1: you know he was so hot at the time, and
Speaker 1: this is also the great theory. You know, you grab
Speaker 1: him right away, grab the guy that's hot now. So
Speaker 1: you got him hot now at the time, which was,
Speaker 1: you know, a couple of weeks ago. I would still
Speaker 1: dive into him even though he cooled off a little bit.
Speaker 1: I think he's got the capability if he could keep
Speaker 1: that walk great up. He's got the play discipline and
Speaker 1: the mentality so you know, not keep long cold streaks
Speaker 1: going even though he cas a lot. Right. We spoke
Speaker 1: about Daniel Murphy and benching him In a five game week,
Speaker 1: Michael Javis also has a five game week. All the
Speaker 1: five games are at home, but some tough matchups here
Speaker 1: has to face For Man Marquez not the easiest task
Speaker 1: has to face Garrett Cole, Corbin Martin, Brad Peacock. And
Speaker 1: it's only five games. Are you leaving Michael Javis in
Speaker 1: your lineup? I think so, yeah. I don't know. The
Speaker 1: other option is obviously, but in the one league where
Speaker 1: I own Michael Javis, twelve team home league, I'm leaving
Speaker 1: Michael Javis in there. I'm starting him over to Daniel Murphy.
Speaker 1: Daniel Murphy on the bench, I'm leaving Michael Javis in there.
Speaker 1: At least I know he's gonna play right how many
Speaker 1: Murphy and three of them against lefties? So if he
Speaker 1: even gets benched for one, you looking at a four game,
Speaker 1: it's crazy. He's Danie Murphy throughout his career, hasn't always
Speaker 1: been He's not bad against lefties. That's why I'm wondering
Speaker 1: if there's something underlying right now. I spent all weekend
Speaker 1: trying to trade away. What do I say on Friday
Speaker 1: when I was freaking out, or Thursday, rather, I was
Speaker 1: shopping gian Carlos Stanton from this team for everybody Franks
Speaker 1: going nuts. I'm two and four, so in a head
Speaker 1: to head, Lee, I don't want to fall too far behind. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I'm trying to get anything that can help me
Speaker 1: right now. I offered up a few trades. I offered
Speaker 1: like Stanton and mikel Franco for Anthony Wrendoon. I thought
Speaker 1: it wasn't a terrible trade offer. You get a third
Speaker 1: baseman and then you'll get Stanton whenever he's back. I
Speaker 1: offered Stanton straight up for Zach Wheeler. I think he's
Speaker 1: actually thinking about that, and it's not happening as of now.
Speaker 1: And then I almost did Stanting for glass Now, but
Speaker 1: but thank god the the opposing owner backed out, because
Speaker 1: man if I would have done that, I would I
Speaker 1: would have just probably just threw in the flag, you know,
Speaker 1: through in the early towel on this team and been like,
Speaker 1: all right, it's not meant to happen. You know, if
Speaker 1: if you trade for class now and he gets hurt,
Speaker 1: it's not meant to happen. So the guys downstairs, right,
Speaker 1: they traded away uh Corey Club for Stanton. They got
Speaker 1: Stanton back, and then Club immediately and Stanton, We're still
Speaker 1: not not getting any updates. So you don't don't even
Speaker 1: really know what's going on. I thought I did read
Speaker 1: up Stanton like something someone positive. I haven't seen anything
Speaker 1: on speaking speaking injuries. Is something else we're gonna ask.
Speaker 1: You asked not that last week, but Durant, him and
Speaker 1: Durant because the NBA, Durant is out for Game one
Speaker 1: of the Western Conference Finals that will be tomorrow night.
Speaker 1: He he is not being re evaluated until Thursday. Game
Speaker 1: two is Thursday. It seems unlikely he plays Game one
Speaker 1: or two. We'll see what happens after that. Greggy, it's
Speaker 1: a sad day here in New York City. What's going on?
Speaker 1: It is no longer happy Talkman day. Talkman has been
Speaker 1: optioned ready to activate Aaron Hicks. So not that I
Speaker 1: think anyone was rostering Talkman outside of maybe a only
Speaker 1: leagues if you start five we Talkman in the pit
Speaker 1: league for a while. But yes, he was. We were.
Speaker 1: We were talking with Sandro about this yesterday. We were
Speaker 1: trying to figure out who's yankee that's gonna get sent down.
Speaker 1: So it ultimately ends up being Talkman man. You know,
Speaker 1: if you had Aaron Hicks on your I l looks
Speaker 1: like he's ready to throw back in your wine up.
Speaker 1: But Tyroll plays the infield, right, Yeah, And he's versatile.
Speaker 1: You could play like second and shortstop two kind of
Speaker 1: a Mayban survives this, yes, so I don't. The thing is,
Speaker 1: I don't think Cameron Mayban has options. He doesn't, so
Speaker 1: I think you either d F A M or well
Speaker 1: they probably just like the having that kind of speed
Speaker 1: element of sense makes sense. It does. So now the
Speaker 1: I feel to be Aaron Hicks with Cameron Mayben as
Speaker 1: like they might use them against lefties and bench like
Speaker 1: grand Gardner or something like that makes sense, and you
Speaker 1: know they'll they'll give Aaron Hicks a few days off
Speaker 1: here and there early on, so they don't want to
Speaker 1: push them too hard right away. That's another kind of
Speaker 1: frustrating situation. Not to the same level as Bud Black,
Speaker 1: but the Yankees are a team that's, you know, very
Speaker 1: careful with their players. They give guys off, it seems
Speaker 1: like more than other teams you know they get they
Speaker 1: give more regular days off. So so now the Yankees
Speaker 1: missing in action or the quarner of the quarner out
Speaker 1: fielders there there Ace and their prior reliever. Alright, so
Speaker 1: outside of talkaman, who's gonna be sacrifice next greag the
Speaker 1: next one to get hurt. Was dealing with the elbow
Speaker 1: thing already. Yes, yeah, Luke Boy's duty get her too, alright,
Speaker 1: So it's in the next two I hope. But we'll
Speaker 1: put in for like the Yankees death pool, you know,
Speaker 1: injured list. He might still be hurt. Man. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: guy's doing nothing right, nothing. Maybe he wants to my
Speaker 1: third base. Maybe that's what it is. He's not, he
Speaker 1: said the agent. No, it would be I know, but
Speaker 1: stating by the way, limited to still so off to
Speaker 1: us and tea work. He could be cleared to hit
Speaker 1: off a machine soon if he experiences but no real time.
Speaker 1: It was the same update we had last year. So
Speaker 1: it's just crazy. There's just nothing going on with saying
Speaker 1: there's no you know, timetable for it. It's just hopefully soon.
Speaker 1: Someone else who's dealing with an injury right now, Nelson
Speaker 1: Cruise dealing with got hit yesterday on his wrist. He's
Speaker 1: gonna get an m R I today. I'd probably get
Speaker 1: him out of my lineup just to be safe, because
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's gonna miss any time or not.
Speaker 1: It kind of seems like he's gotta missed at least sometimes. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so worth mentioning Nelson Cruz and it sucks because the
Speaker 1: Twins play seven games this week too. So I picked
Speaker 1: up c J Crew c J Crowne in one league
Speaker 1: just because, um, they have seven games and it seems
Speaker 1: like the playing time is gonna be pretty safe, especially
Speaker 1: if anything is going on with Nelson Cruzy. Uh. Speaking
Speaker 1: of old widely veterans, Kendri's Morales was released today by
Speaker 1: the Oakland Athletics. More Cana was activated off the I
Speaker 1: l Obviously Matt Olsen is back as well, so that
Speaker 1: would be the end, it seems for maybe for good. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's unfortunate for for Kendricks Morales. We'll see if if
Speaker 1: a you know, one of these other younger teams, it's
Speaker 1: just like throwing out like really bad players, if they
Speaker 1: just kind of need a bat in the line of
Speaker 1: first base. Yeah, maybe, who knows. You see what happens.
Speaker 1: But yesterday Martine Perez also got hit by a line
Speaker 1: drive in the foot. He was taken out right after
Speaker 1: that is expected to make make his next start. Now
Speaker 1: I own him in a few leagues. Did you watch
Speaker 1: the start because he's here, I was not watching it completely.
Speaker 1: I was watching Corbin Martin yesterday, and then I was
Speaker 1: listening to the Yankees and John Sterling with the with
Speaker 1: the air pods, So that's what I had going on.
Speaker 1: I was listening to the Yankees, I was watching Corbin Martin.
Speaker 1: But I did see that he gave up three runs
Speaker 1: and five innings. He came out for the sixth. If
Speaker 1: you would have made it through that with a quality start,
Speaker 1: you're right with it. You're fine with it. Ultimately, I
Speaker 1: did want better results against the Tigers, not really a
Speaker 1: lineup that I'm scared off. You get seven cases. He
Speaker 1: got crushed by Cassianos twice yesterday. He gave up a
Speaker 1: two roun homer to Castanos, gave up gave up a
Speaker 1: double to him. So it seems like that was the
Speaker 1: guy who's really having a lot of What were we
Speaker 1: saying that he had? Was it him who he said
Speaker 1: it hasn't really given up a home run yet and
Speaker 1: he was due to give up some homers or is
Speaker 1: it someone else? Because I kind of expected, uh, it
Speaker 1: might have been Domingo Herman and homers on Friday nights.
Speaker 1: But I bring up Martine Perez greg because while he's
Speaker 1: expected to make his next start, you don't know for sure,
Speaker 1: So to weekly lineup right now, I'm playing it's safe.
Speaker 1: In my weekly line up, I have him on the bench,
Speaker 1: but he's going up against Seattle, which is a lineup
Speaker 1: that's cooling off, and I really I would want to
Speaker 1: get him in there, but I just worried that he's
Speaker 1: might have some kind of setback or something randomly and
Speaker 1: and he doesn't get to start here. Would you would
Speaker 1: you do if you own Martine for Rez Grady I have.
Speaker 1: I have turned Bowling the line up right now going
Speaker 1: up against Oakland, and I have Merrill Kelly. I picked
Speaker 1: him off. I know he's been up and down. He
Speaker 1: faces San Francisco this week at home, and Merrill Kelly
Speaker 1: has been much better at home. He's got like a
Speaker 1: low three z r A at home and an eight
Speaker 1: or a over six on the road. I like the
Speaker 1: bull man. I'd probably start. I need to win. I'm
Speaker 1: two and four, so that's why I don't want to
Speaker 1: take any risks of getting zero. Only one of those guys,
Speaker 1: one of those three. I have to start two of
Speaker 1: those three. I also have Tyler Malley on the bench,
Speaker 1: but he's going up against the Dodgers in great American
Speaker 1: Small Park, and I have you Darvish at the Reds
Speaker 1: and I'm not starting I think I would start bulling
Speaker 1: Merrill Kelley. That's what I have in right now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, he wasn't great over the weekend, um, but
Speaker 1: still five and two thirds runs. Like he's keeping the
Speaker 1: runs down. He's he's finding a way to get out
Speaker 1: of all these jams that he gets himself into, rightfully.
Speaker 1: So he had four walks on Saturday. He also had
Speaker 1: a hit by pitch, so he was a little bit wild.
Speaker 1: That happens at times with him. Um, you know, he's
Speaker 1: had to four walk games in his last four starts,
Speaker 1: so he's a little whild at times, but he gets
Speaker 1: the strikeouts. He had six strikeouts and five and two
Speaker 1: thirds and his pitch overall he's been pretty good. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, I just really needed to get that that
Speaker 1: quality start. And he's going up against the Oakland A's
Speaker 1: this week and they've been without Chris Davis and overall
Speaker 1: their lineup just hasn't been great. With the last seven days,
Speaker 1: the Oakland A's have a six thirty two OPS as
Speaker 1: a team. That's twenty seven and baseball so that's what
Speaker 1: I'm looking at here, what do we want to do
Speaker 1: and we had some decisions to make ours. What would
Speaker 1: that be great? Uh? We storry Eric Thames has seven games, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: this is something that we we have to figure out.
Speaker 1: And Aguilar as well, what do we have Austin Meadows
Speaker 1: on our bench who only plays five games? But I
Speaker 1: think you just gotta get him in there because he's
Speaker 1: all just rips, he's awesome, all right? So yeah, how
Speaker 1: many games probably put him in for Eric the Thames
Speaker 1: because ultimately they're probably end up playing the same amount
Speaker 1: of games every same day he's missed. He hasn't started
Speaker 1: two out of lest four games. I mean, that's what
Speaker 1: you kind of expect from him right now. We knew
Speaker 1: that coming into the season has started to heat up
Speaker 1: a little bit. Three four, five six, that's pretty good
Speaker 1: for him. Over the past seven days he is betting
Speaker 1: three fifty three no homers, but five ribbies and over
Speaker 1: during that same span, um, Eric Thames adding two seventy
Speaker 1: three with only one ribby. So and let's see over
Speaker 1: the last two weeks three sixty four, so showing signs
Speaker 1: of coming around a little bit. We just need a
Speaker 1: little bit more pop that's what we'll take. We'll take
Speaker 1: here if you're out there listening, Frank Council, if you're
Speaker 1: out there listening, We'll take more strike outs from Hayeglar
Speaker 1: if it will give us more power back. We like
Speaker 1: the Hay from last week. It was a near thirty
Speaker 1: strike out right, but also give us thirty home runs,
Speaker 1: which is that's what we want. We started a five days,
Speaker 1: five game week. Any das five games or Erik Tetrick
Speaker 1: six games. Let's talk about Okay, left is Derika basis two.
Speaker 1: So basically it's a four game week for Derrik t.
Speaker 1: There it is. We'll wrap up the show right after this.

Speaker 1: that's great, all right. So I got a trade offer
Speaker 1: in my DM just now. So when slid in and
Speaker 1: wanted us to talk about it, a trade right here,
Speaker 1: go Clint Kershaw. It's a big one. Clint Kershaw, Paul
Speaker 1: gold Schmidt, Wilson, Can Saris, and I don't have any
Speaker 1: other information I want. I'm giving and a six round
Speaker 1: pick and Charis Goldschmidt Kershaw in a sixth round pick
Speaker 1: for Jean Carlos, Stanton, Peter Alonso, Wilson Ramos and I
Speaker 1: as soon as it's Justin Turner, Justin Turner might be,
Speaker 1: but I'm assuming it's just pretty mamendously. I'm gonna assume
Speaker 1: it's Justin Turner and a third round pick. Ten team league.
Speaker 1: He's in ninth place, which one is? You get Ramos?
Speaker 1: I'm not in it. Oh, this is nothing than me,
Speaker 1: didn't Kershaw Wilson in a six in a sixth round
Speaker 1: pick for Stanton, Peter Alonso, Wilson Ramos and Justin Turner
Speaker 1: and a third round pick. Alright, so let's let's break
Speaker 1: this down. Alonso, Let's go by position Alonso for Goldie.
Speaker 1: That's a wash, I said, Goldie wins that. Well, it's
Speaker 1: it isn't keep his legal So that's what we don't
Speaker 1: know too, is this I assume if there's drafting because
Speaker 1: the sixth round pick. Alright, so keep Really you'd rather
Speaker 1: have Alonzo than Goldie, and I mean you're much rather
Speaker 1: have Wilson and Treris and Wilson Ramos m H. And
Speaker 1: then it's Stanton versus Kershaw. It seems like it's kind
Speaker 1: of a wash right now, depends on what you need,
Speaker 1: but I think they have similar value. Chris was performing
Speaker 1: very well, but is he gonna be able to keep
Speaker 1: that up in a keeper league? And then you get
Speaker 1: Justin Turner too and a third round pick end the
Speaker 1: third round pick on that side. So it's tough because
Speaker 1: you're you're in ninth place right now. Saton's not gonna
Speaker 1: help you right away. But what's around, what's around was
Speaker 1: the intensivelyst droppable by the way intensively what's around was
Speaker 1: droppable for who though like Mitch Garver, one of those guys,
Speaker 1: James McCann, whatever, of those guys like, you know, if
Speaker 1: you were able to turn it around, he's better than
Speaker 1: those guys, sure, no doubt. But to eight he hit
Speaker 1: it with like twelve home runs the rest of the way.
Speaker 1: Right now, I leaned with in a keeper league the
Speaker 1: Peter Alonso side, because you get up the third round
Speaker 1: pick too, so you get the better pick. So it's
Speaker 1: Alonzo Ramos, it's standing Peter Alonso, Wilson Ramos and Turner.
Speaker 1: We don't know if this Justin Turner or a trade
Speaker 1: Turner that obviously changes it tremendously, right. I mean either way,
Speaker 1: Justin Turner is a really is a really good player.
Speaker 1: He could help you now. He maybe be able to
Speaker 1: help you for the next couple of years, and keeper
Speaker 1: league um Turner obviously has much higher upside for longer term.
Speaker 1: To get a third round pick instead of a sixth
Speaker 1: he's giving the way the six kid. He's in ninth place,
Speaker 1: right he's he's giving the curse off side. I think
Speaker 1: we should just say, like what he is on the
Speaker 1: Kershaw side, So he owns those players. Okay, he's in ninth,
Speaker 1: so he's giving he's getting a better pick, getting a
Speaker 1: better pick, He's getting better keepers for his baseman of
Speaker 1: the future. I think he probably makes this move. He's
Speaker 1: a ninth place right now, he gets the third round pick,
Speaker 1: and he's Peter Alonso, who's a better keeper than anybody else.
Speaker 1: The keepers that he's getting back I think are worth
Speaker 1: it in the third round pick. So he also has
Speaker 1: the gun. He continues DM me, that's how heey getting
Speaker 1: more information the gram and said, all right, yeah, so
Speaker 1: that makes Kershaw a little bit more expendable. Fact that
Speaker 1: he has the groundin sale. I just don't like, I'm
Speaker 1: okay with the giving away the Contreras and get Ramos back,
Speaker 1: because I know contres is absolutely much better right now.
Speaker 1: But I still think, like I'm with you, I think
Speaker 1: Ramos can turn this around and it could be more
Speaker 1: even you know, we we have enough of a sample size.
Speaker 1: When it comes to Wilson. Ramo said he's a good ballplayer.
Speaker 1: He should be better than this, and he has familiarity
Speaker 1: with the and at least he played for the Nationals,
Speaker 1: he's played for the Phillies. He should be better, right
Speaker 1: And that was on him coming into the year. So
Speaker 1: I have a few shares, so I still have been suffering. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm so faring with you. I got him in two teams,
Speaker 1: so the gold Schmidt is the one that I I wish,
Speaker 1: but I guess you gotta give Pete Alonso might already
Speaker 1: be better than gold Smith. As crazy as it is
Speaker 1: to say, like I don't want to write off goalie
Speaker 1: or anything, he's still a really good player, but put
Speaker 1: them side to side. Right now, pet Along has been
Speaker 1: better and moving forward in the future, if it's a
Speaker 1: keeper league, he's going to continue to get better or
Speaker 1: at least be this good, whereas Goldschmidt is going to
Speaker 1: start to decline. Uh but yeah, that's the thing. The
Speaker 1: third pick over the sixth pick you got standing in there,
Speaker 1: you got you know, and their turn in the third
Speaker 1: round picking a ten team league venture, you're gonna get
Speaker 1: a really good play. So that's the big win there,
Speaker 1: and you gotta you gotta win with Stanton as a
Speaker 1: little bit of a keeper for the future, you know,
Speaker 1: the rest of his career. If you want, I would
Speaker 1: make I would turner. I think is though, is you know,
Speaker 1: no noble and void in this trade. It's a keeper's
Speaker 1: legue or dynasty. Amazing. He's older, you know, and he's
Speaker 1: also injury prone. Sure, so that's why I think that's
Speaker 1: a kind of a nun void part of the trade.
Speaker 1: When he's healthy, he's easily a topic. But this kid's
Speaker 1: obviously looking for the future, not win now because he's
Speaker 1: the ninth place. So justin turns a win now guy.
Speaker 1: All right, So I mean you get another asset and
Speaker 1: return then maybe closer to the trade deadline you have
Speaker 1: him for more. You know. Maybe I do like the
Speaker 1: Alonso part, the stand part. Yeah, they're around pick do
Speaker 1: it I would do it. We're all together on this,
Speaker 1: all together. I do that. That's a big trade, A monster,
Speaker 1: big one. Greggy, Right, what else are we got here? Um?
Speaker 1: We had some other questions that I think when we
Speaker 1: running through and ask that's that's right? Fun last coole minutes?
Speaker 1: All right? Would you drop Christian Walker for C J. Crone?
Speaker 1: I don't. As much as I like Walker, I don't
Speaker 1: have any shares of him, so I don't really know
Speaker 1: what he's been up to. The batting average down to
Speaker 1: two eighties six? Um, d backs play how many games
Speaker 1: to this safe place? Six? Yeah? I mean they're probably
Speaker 1: similar players at this point. It seems like Christian Walker
Speaker 1: slowing down a little bit. You get that extra game
Speaker 1: of c. J. Crow it's kind of a wash, negligible,
Speaker 1: but I like walk up better. Yeah he does more doubles. Uh,
Speaker 1: he's still he's got three bags. But like you know,
Speaker 1: Crohn does one thing, it's homers another wrong homers. I
Speaker 1: know it's not wrong homes. But to Minnesota, Uh slightly.
Speaker 1: I think Arizona could hit. Yeah, it's close. I'm alright,
Speaker 1: but if you're the guy already holding Walker, you know,
Speaker 1: like I don't want to kind of a lateral move.
Speaker 1: It's a lateral move. What do we have next? Cree
Speaker 1: Hits had category leagues Jose Bettios for Walker Bueller and
Speaker 1: Jose Cantana. If you need the starting picture depth, I
Speaker 1: don't have a problem with it. Walker Bueller has past
Speaker 1: couple of starts. He looked really good. I was watching
Speaker 1: some of that on on Saturday night, Graig Walker Bueller
Speaker 1: against Max Scherzer. It was a sick game to watch.
Speaker 1: So this is Donald para hit. I think it might
Speaker 1: have been a pinch hit brands Land to take the
Speaker 1: lead in that game. It was crazy. It wasn't off
Speaker 1: Walker Buller. Though Bugler was awesome in his last couple
Speaker 1: of starts. He's looked a lot more like himself. So
Speaker 1: if you need starting picture depth, I have no problem
Speaker 1: Burrios to get Bueller and Kantana. This is this is
Speaker 1: a classic depth you know, quality verse quantity thing. You know,
Speaker 1: trade quality for quantity, but you're also quality. It's almost
Speaker 1: as good as Barrios. I wouldn't say that Burrios is
Speaker 1: really good. Barrios is the best pitcher in the league
Speaker 1: right now. I mean, let's be serious, is he the
Speaker 1: best pict a good spot because he plays in the
Speaker 1: American League Central and he doesn't have to face his
Speaker 1: own team, so I guess to face the Indians that
Speaker 1: twins the White Sox. It's a good spot to be
Speaker 1: in for sure. But I agree with you. You're getting Bueller,
Speaker 1: the upside is possibly a Barrio, so you're getting You're
Speaker 1: also getting Quantana, who's good, not great, but you know whatever,
Speaker 1: the solid sp four, so you're getting depth, and you're
Speaker 1: getting a guy that could be, you know, on the
Speaker 1: Burrios level eventually. So I like it. I would do it.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, to keep his league though
Speaker 1: he was league, I wouldn't do it. I would hold
Speaker 1: onto Burrios tight height. Yeah, but Walker Bueler is still
Speaker 1: super young too, I know, but I'd want more than that,
Speaker 1: all right. I mean Burios is proving himself as an
Speaker 1: elite ace right now. You know in a keepers league
Speaker 1: that's hard to find. It is. Sure, its Bios very good. Um,
Speaker 1: that's one. Pat Fagan in our chat, Carlos Correa and
Speaker 1: Zach Wheeler for Matt Chapman, Dansby Swanson, Marcus Stroman. That
Speaker 1: doesn't seem very fair. Say it again, Matt Chapman, Dansby Swanson,
Speaker 1: Marcus Stroman for Carlos Correa and Zach Wheeler. Mm hmm,
Speaker 1: Raya Wheeler says much better. I mean, you'd have to
Speaker 1: have like a really bad third baseman. I want to
Speaker 1: make this deal. That's why you're getting Matt chat Wheeler,
Speaker 1: in my opinion, is much better than Marcus Stroman. It
Speaker 1: hasn't been the case yet this year, but stroman got
Speaker 1: upside is much higher than Almans. What was the other guy?
Speaker 1: The last guy there? And Dan's by Swanson who's like
Speaker 1: whatever replacement level shortstop m No. I mean, look, I
Speaker 1: don't want to downplay he's been pretty good this year.
Speaker 1: He's cool a lot. But I do like Matt Chatman
Speaker 1: lock right. I think it's a little bit closer than
Speaker 1: you're you're leading on, But I would rather have the
Speaker 1: Cliparaean Wheeler side fair enough? What do you venture? Would
Speaker 1: you drop Rugenette Odor for you also? Know? Um? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean if you just need if you just need power.
Speaker 1: I mean they both have upside. Both kind of should
Speaker 1: struggle with batting average, but Odor has a little bit
Speaker 1: more stolen based potential. So I guess it comes down
Speaker 1: to what you need if you just need power on
Speaker 1: the right making that move, Getilson knowing you're not scared
Speaker 1: that old door. Could it sent back down or you
Speaker 1: can't get to down. Actually yeah, because he's been one thirty,
Speaker 1: it's bad. But you know what, Greg, for the first
Speaker 1: two months last year he sucked too. You know, from
Speaker 1: June on he was great. That's why I really streaky guy.
Speaker 1: I get it. It's tough, especially if you're playing a
Speaker 1: head to the head league where you need consistency. He's
Speaker 1: one of these guys where in Rhodo at the end
Speaker 1: of the season he could easily, you know, get that
Speaker 1: batting average up too, you know, to fifty by the
Speaker 1: end and then kind of like what he did last year.
Speaker 1: But I I did have higher expectations for him. I
Speaker 1: don't know if it's the fact that he got hurt.
Speaker 1: He's striking out a lot more this year. He made
Speaker 1: huge strides last season in that second half, and it's
Speaker 1: just it hasn't carried over a rugy. Yeah, I felt
Speaker 1: for the improvement of a year old players, but he
Speaker 1: could still turn it around. He can't. It's just like
Speaker 1: his range of outcomes is so far because last year
Speaker 1: to homes twelve soon on basis, that's pretty good year
Speaker 1: for that. He's a thirty home runs and fifteen stolen basis,
Speaker 1: but it's two oh four, so his range is like
Speaker 1: he's gone as far as low as two oh four
Speaker 1: batting average for an entire season, as high as two
Speaker 1: seventy one. He has two thirty home run seasons under
Speaker 1: his belt, he has three double digit stolen basis seasons
Speaker 1: under his belt already, and he still only twenty five.
Speaker 1: So that's why, like the upsides, it's handsallizing in the
Speaker 1: Texas Rangers lineup in that ballpark. How's his walk rate
Speaker 1: this year? It's it's around where it was last year,
Speaker 1: so seven points, and last year was eight percent. In
Speaker 1: every other season it was below five. So he's still
Speaker 1: walking more than he has in the past. It's not
Speaker 1: like he doesn't walk a ton, but he's still walking
Speaker 1: more than he did early on in his career. But
Speaker 1: he has a thirty eight percent strikeout rate. That's the
Speaker 1: bigger problem for him, right If you have such a
Speaker 1: big strikeout rate, you need to have a high walk
Speaker 1: rate because you don't have that plate discipline. You could
Speaker 1: easily bat one thirty like him you can easily fall
Speaker 1: off the map. So it's dangerous. It's a dangerous game
Speaker 1: with guys who don't do that. You want to see
Speaker 1: good play this mons, So if you see that growing
Speaker 1: a little more and maybe he could turn it around.
Speaker 1: But like, this guy is gonna not a guy who
Speaker 1: hits for the average. It's very hard to get a
Speaker 1: lot out of him. He's gonna be I mean, what
Speaker 1: I was expecting from him is if you give me
Speaker 1: twenty five and fifteen with a too fifty batting average,
Speaker 1: like I can, I can? You know I could take
Speaker 1: that batting average. That's fine, m m. But I was
Speaker 1: expecting a nice little power speed combination here. He does
Speaker 1: have three homers, three soleing bases, and only twenty five
Speaker 1: games because he missed time. But overall, big disappointments so
Speaker 1: far from Odor, it's been it's been for Odor. Did
Speaker 1: you miss Odor? Oh no, no, no? Do you think rude?
Speaker 1: Odor watched the Game of Thrones and he watched that scene.
Speaker 1: He's like, Hey, that's me, I do I do? I'd
Speaker 1: like to think that probably not whatever, Well, we'll just
Speaker 1: believe it. I'm not sure if he could watch that show. Chris,
Speaker 1: I didn't ask you, um, what really happens next week
Speaker 1: in the in the show? Yeah, um, I think that
Speaker 1: it's pretty This would be the obvious thing, though, John Snow,
Speaker 1: I think he ends up killing Danny and he ends
Speaker 1: up taking the throne and everybody's happy because you know,
Speaker 1: a really good persons on the throne. I doubt that's
Speaker 1: gonna happen. I think that might happen, but that seems
Speaker 1: to predict something crazy. Yeah, that seems too predictable. Something's
Speaker 1: gonna cue it in a different direction. Somebody else is
Speaker 1: gonna be on the throne. I want to see, John,
Speaker 1: there's very few trailers. Last night you normally get something.
Speaker 1: Oh so sure, that was like ten seconds of nothing.
Speaker 1: They can't Yeah. What I don't understand is you saw
Speaker 1: it last night, like all these all at the doth
Speaker 1: Racky and you saw all the Yeah, they're als would
Speaker 1: be dead. Then the Whites killed them. Yeah, how are
Speaker 1: I don't know how they have so many left again?
Speaker 1: Rocked them all out all back, especially doth Ray. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that went dark and only like ten came back. Maybe right.
Speaker 1: So I was like, wait, the first thing I said
Speaker 1: when I saw'm like where these dut racking come from
Speaker 1: I was. I was saying that to myself as well.
Speaker 1: That was ridiculous. The first thing I thought, Yeah, it is.
Speaker 1: The Goblin Company was a disaster, so dumb. They just
Speaker 1: got destroyed for nothing, building up for nothing, unbeatable, Army
Speaker 1: Sta have a finger. Harry Strickland goes down. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: might have our our next sacrifice. Jonathan Loiza Scratch tonight
Speaker 1: receiving the nod instead Man's Eliza. Eliza has had injury
Speaker 1: issues entire career. No reports indicating that Loizaca is dealing
Speaker 1: with an injury. It's expected that he's still we'll still
Speaker 1: be available out of the pen the series opener, So
Speaker 1: maybe they're doing like an opener. Maybe Louise it says,
Speaker 1: won't make his schedule start money else it happens. We hope,
Speaker 1: all right, we hope. Let's take a break. When we
Speaker 1: come back tomorrow, they have a whole lot more talk about.
Speaker 1: That's so, I was like, great, it's the end of
Speaker 1: the show. Understand. Had to make sure it's sure. It's
Speaker 1: Frey Standford, I'm Greg Saucer. We'll do it all go tomorrow,
Speaker 1: we hope,
