WEBVTT - MLB: Leading Off May 31st, 2022 (Ep. 521) 0:00:00.520 --> 0:00:16.040 There's a new plumber and flushing let's play ball. Welcome in, 0:00:16.120 --> 0:00:19.000 everybody to fantasy prose. This is leading off, brought to 0:00:19.000 --> 0:00:22.079 you by Bet MGM, the King of sportsbooks. It's me, 0:00:22.239 --> 0:00:25.880 Joey P. Refreshed, ready to rock and roll. After a 0:00:25.960 --> 0:00:32.400 nice holiday weekend. I almost had two straight days off, unbelievable, 0:00:32.760 --> 0:00:36.240 unheard of in my house. And of course Scott Bogman 0:00:36.360 --> 0:00:38.920 joining me after a long weekend. Scott Bogman, it's great 0:00:38.920 --> 0:00:41.839 to see you, my friend. How was your Memorial Day weekend? 0:00:42.320 --> 0:00:46.040 It was nice, you know, easy peasy and that nothing major. 0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:50.400 I ate some barbecue as usual, and you know, worked 0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:54.040 a little. So that's what we do, right, So we 0:00:54.120 --> 0:00:58.320 do know, fairly boring, not not no ragers. Getting closer 0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:01.320 to forty, so you know, no, Now that's. 0:01:01.160 --> 0:01:02.880 What when you get the forty, it's you have a 0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:05.800 couple of drinks, you hang out, you talk crap, maybe 0:01:05.840 --> 0:01:08.639 you get into the pool a little bit, a little swimming. 0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:11.240 It's ninety five degrees here today in New Jersey, so 0:01:11.280 --> 0:01:14.360 I will be in the pool later this afternoon. Put 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:16.800 some extra sunscreen on my giant bald head. But let's 0:01:16.800 --> 0:01:19.759 get to the baseball news. A lot to get through, 0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:21.679 a lot to break down, and we'll start with the 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:24.280 Plumber making house calls for the New York Mets. Who 0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:27.320 is Nick Plumber? I don't know, nobody knows. This guy's 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:29.360 come out of nowhere and had the weekend of his life. 0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:32.399 He had a home run yesterday and another blowout for 0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:36.080 the Mets. Here drives in four. They sweep the Phillies. 0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:39.240 Then they just continue to pound on everybody, Starling mart 0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:43.360 Day having a good night as well. Just unbelievable stuff 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:45.200 there from the New York Mets. And I feel like 0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:48.200 this is the thing where, you know, certain teams sometimes 0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:55.000 you get you get productivity from places you didn't expect it. 0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:57.000 I feel like that's always the mark of a team 0:01:57.040 --> 0:02:00.800 that's just doing something that is a little bit we're special. 0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:02.520 And I feel like that those are the teams that 0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:05.880 kind of hitting is in fascist right, Yeah, something like 0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:07.400 that where you're like, well, I can't. It's like the 0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:09.120 Rays a couple of years ago with a Rosa Raina. 0:02:09.240 --> 0:02:11.720 You know, it's like everything's just breaking for them. You know, 0:02:11.840 --> 0:02:14.280 it's like, right, who was this guy? Where'd this guy 0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:17.079 come from? But should people be looking to pick this guy? 0:02:17.120 --> 0:02:18.760 Up because I was doing a little bit of a 0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:21.160 dive looking at his minor league track record, and it's 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:22.880 not good. I mean, the guy hit two twenty two 0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:25.360 for his minor league career. He was a high draft 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:27.160 pick for the Cardinals years and years ago, back in 0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:30.160 twenty fifteen when he was eighteen years old, and then 0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:32.320 all of a sudden in Double A in twenty twenty one, 0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:34.880 he had a pretty I mean a pretty darn good year. 0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:37.080 I don't know, Bogs, would you be looking at a 0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:40.000 deeply to even pick this guy up at all? No? 0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:42.280 I mean I think I'd rather pick up an actual, 0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:47.680 real plumber. So no, I you know, look, guys come up, 0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:50.800 they have a big game. It's not that big of 0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:54.640 a surprise. We've seen that many many times. So not 0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:57.040 someone I'd be running to the wire to go a 0:02:57.160 --> 0:02:57.919 choir at all. 0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:00.679 No, All right, bets Homer's and double on Monday to 0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:04.040 loss to the Pirates. Yes, the Pirates. Kimberll blows the 0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:05.720 save in that game, and then you have Mitch Garver 0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:08.360 stealing a base double twice in his return, so welcome 0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:11.840 back Mitchie the Kid. We also had a three run 0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:15.760 home run from Smith, helping the Dinbacks top the Braves 0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:18.040 and Tyler Well shuts out the Red Sox over six innings. 0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:20.480 Though of the Red Sox, oh my goodness, gracious, lots 0:03:20.520 --> 0:03:23.720 of trouble there, but hopefully for those who were in 0:03:23.760 --> 0:03:26.680 the more shallow leagues that lost Freddy Peralta, and you 0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:30.440 picked up Aaron Ashby twelve strikeouts in a victory over 0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:34.360 the Cubs. He looked dominant your thoughts on this Ashby start, 0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:37.960 And even when eventually Paralta comes back, I mean, that's 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:39.920 gonna be a long injury. So I think if you 0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:42.280 made the investment in Ashby, you're just really excited right 0:03:42.320 --> 0:03:44.000 now because this was a guy we talked about early 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:46.640 in the year, draft him late, stashing on the bench, 0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:49.040 wait for something good to happen. Same with Christian Javier, 0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:51.080 same with some of these young live arms. And I 0:03:51.080 --> 0:03:52.880 feel like that's a really good strategy when it comes 0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:55.760 to pitching, because eventually it feels like the inevitable injury 0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:57.960 opens up a spot for these guys, right and then 0:03:58.440 --> 0:04:00.000 more often than not they take advantage of it. 0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:02.600 Yeah, you know, I've learned my lesson a little bit 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:06.160 about that about you know, guys with innings limits and stuff, 0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:08.400 I'm more willing to go and snap them up. And 0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:11.040 Ashby's definitely one of those guys our buddy Spoor and 0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:15.640 I have come up because we kept calling him Andy 0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:16.720 Ashby just. 0:04:18.200 --> 0:04:18.719 The Phillies. 0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:22.640 It could not help calling him Andy Ashby like the 0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:25.120 last five shows I've done. So we're just gonna call 0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:28.960 him nephew since he's Andy Ashby's nephew. So I would 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:32.839 go and add the nephew, uh if I were you guys, 0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:35.839 if he's still available on your wire, because I mean, 0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:38.560 this is a guy that has the potential to strike 0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:40.839 out twell should he be getting these spots starts? So 0:04:41.440 --> 0:04:43.400 hopefully he's sticks in the rotation and can do it. 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:46.839 But yeah, definitely go much much more on nephew than 0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:49.200 I am on the plumber. So well, I'll say that. 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:51.799 And the nephew throws a lot harder than the uncle, 0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:52.359 let me tell you. 0:04:52.440 --> 0:04:53.240 I mean that's right. 0:04:53.640 --> 0:04:55.920 Andy Ashby was, you know, kind of a soft tossing 0:04:55.960 --> 0:05:00.560 pictures crafty guy. Crafty crafty, but you know, keep desful. 0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:02.920 Andy Ashby was a guy like if you had did 0:05:02.960 --> 0:05:05.240 your fifth starter, you'd be like, all right, he's not bad, 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:07.279 Like I could live with that, but he was consistent 0:05:07.279 --> 0:05:07.960 for someone. 0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:10.640 He pitched in San Diego. It's a big ballpark. You 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:12.200 know that Marine layer. 0:05:12.360 --> 0:05:13.440 We like that, so. 0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:19.720 Yeah, yeah, before humidors, Joe, back in my day when the. 0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:22.640 Balls were flying everywhere and guys through two hundred innings 0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:25.200 like it was nothing. Let me tell you kids, you 0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:26.360 don't know nothing about nothing. 0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:29.240 And when I do know, Hansy skipped starts and six 0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:31.640 man rotations, skip its dougs. 0:05:31.680 --> 0:05:32.960 What are you wearing oven mits in your hand to 0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:35.599 run the bases? Look at my fingers. Look at my 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:37.800 fingers from running the bases over the ears. Look at him? 0:05:37.839 --> 0:05:39.880 No figure goes in the right direction. They're all cock 0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:42.359 eyed because I ran the bases hard. I mean the 0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:44.719 oven mits. I'll never get over it. That makes me 0:05:44.800 --> 0:05:46.760 laugh every single You know what makes me laugh more 0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:49.800 the guys where you're like, you don't steal bases? Why 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:51.279 the hell are you worrying it of a mint? Like 0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:53.840 I just like, what are the chance of you sliding 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:58.000 at all? I don't know? But whatever. Also, this weekend, 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.719 you know, we talked about the some of the hot 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:02.600 hands in Major League Baseball. We'll get to all the 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:04.520 stat heroes, but I also want to get to the 0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.240 hot grill that I had Bodman, because as you know, 0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:09.279 you got the box of meat. I got the box 0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:11.679 of meat from the Omaha Steaks. The box of meat 0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:14.520 made an appearance on the piece of pie grill. We 0:06:14.600 --> 0:06:17.479 had the bacon wrapped filets from Omaha's aches. We had 0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:19.880 the burgers, the steak burgers, which were delicious and I 0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:22.120 liked it.

All right, let's go to the next 0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:26.240 thing here, and let's talk about some of the injuries. 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:29.400 Now Wander Franco dealing with the quad ailment. Still, this 0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:32.680 is frustrating. We're almost Wander Franco people, so hopefully you 0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:35.160 can get past this. But I don't know. I'm starting 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:35.640 to wonder. 0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:39.960 If he's been on the struggle bus he yeah, I 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:42.360 think maybe just stick him on the il, you know, 0:07:42.520 --> 0:07:44.920 give him ten days off, let him come back fresh, 0:07:44.960 --> 0:07:46.960 because he really has been on the struggle bus for 0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:50.360 all of May. So yeah, let's get him rested and healthy. 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:52.560 I say this doesn't make sense. 0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:55.840 I have a lot, but I will say this, He's 0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:59.760 gonna be reevaluated today at some point. Look for the eye. 0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:02.360 I would be proactive looking for somebody if it's a 0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:04.440 thori or strata. If it's somebody off the waiver wire, 0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:07.280 who's STI floating around there in the middle endfield, grabull 0:08:07.360 --> 0:08:09.320 off the waiver wire. Be prepared for this because it's. 0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:12.480 Code grabbed thyroid. That's right. If he's a vail byroid. 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:15.600 Hey, he was only rostered in sixty percent of leagues 0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:19.120 going into again, so he was out there Austin Meadows 0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:23.960 dealing with vertigo starting his rehab assignment. Shane Bose dominant 0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:26.880 yesterday in his rehab outing, So I would imagine he's 0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:29.880 back probably by the weekend, would be my guess. So 0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:33.040 if for some reason he's floating around still, my god, 0:08:33.360 --> 0:08:34.800 I want to play in that league, but go pick 0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:38.000 him up. And Cody Bellinger dealing with the left abductor strain, 0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:42.120 which again you know, just continues to pile on. Also Bogman, 0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:45.400 uh well, poor went out for our homie. J Happ 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:48.680 announced his retirement after a fifteen year career. I wasn't 0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:51.120 aware that he hadn't announced his retirement, so. 0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:53.640 Hey, you know, don't don't don't pour one out for 0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:56.520 a hap. Light some fireworks off for HAP. That guy 0:08:56.800 --> 0:09:00.920 lasted fifteen years in the big conngragularations, so that is 0:09:01.000 --> 0:09:03.880 pretty incredible way to be J happ I think he 0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:06.319 just it's just j. You're not supposed to say j 0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:09.559 a but jah. If you put the two dots, it's 0:09:09.679 --> 0:09:09.959 j A. 0:09:10.720 --> 0:09:13.240 I'm sorry that's not understood because it doesn't have the 0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:15.920 dots or no, it has J period a period. 0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:19.000 I thought it was just JA, so I don't know, 0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:23.240 you know, uh I I didn't realize you were the 0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:25.240 name police Joe, so well I'm not. 0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.240 The name police. But if you're gonna put the periods 0:09:27.360 --> 0:09:30.800 J period A period, I thought, like John Morant is 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:33.800 just JA that I can that's fine, but he's jaw 0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:37.240 not J. This is gonna be yeah peanuts and cracker jacks. 0:09:37.280 --> 0:09:39.040 Let me know your thoughts on this in the comments, please. 0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:41.480 I want to know how you pronounce it. Do you 0:09:41.520 --> 0:09:44.439 say j A happ I I don't think it's J happy, So. 0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:46.440 That's I just said, I just think if your name 0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:50.360 is spelled Q seven R three and you say my 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:52.520 name is Steve, I'm just gonna call you Steve. 0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:53.920 I don't really care how you spell it. 0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:58.680 So, oh goodness, gracious, all right, Bob Man, let's continue 0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:02.679 on here. MLB dot com had some interesting takes this weekend. 0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:04.600 I always like to find this little little pieces for 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:07.320 the show. Here five trades they'd like to see. Now, 0:10:07.320 --> 0:10:08.520 I don't know if you want to see any of 0:10:08.559 --> 0:10:11.320 these trades, so I'm gonna rattle them off to you. 0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:13.520 You tell me which one you want to see, or 0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:16.000 which one you think might actually happen or whatever the heck, 0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:18.120 or which one do you think is dumb? One was 0:10:18.240 --> 0:10:22.280 Luis Castillo to the Mets, one was Andrew Benintendie to 0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:26.000 the Padres. Then there was Frankie Montas to the Twins, 0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:29.719 and what Josh Bell to the Blue Jays, And the 0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:33.840 last one was Wilson Contreras to the Astros, which wood ally, 0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:37.800 that's a big one. So Catrere's to the Astros? Is 0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:39.079 that the one for you? Is that the one that 0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:39.680 lights you up? 0:10:40.240 --> 0:10:41.800 That's the one that I like the best. 0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:44.840 Here, I would love this to see Wilson Catres dropped 0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:48.000 in the middle of that Ashtros lineup every day. I mean, 0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:50.800 that would just be so much fun to see, uh 0:10:51.080 --> 0:10:54.440 from a fantasy standpoint, just getting Frankie out of Oakland, 0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:56.920 you know, would be nice to get him some wins 0:10:57.360 --> 0:10:59.800 in Minnesota would be very, very nice. 0:11:00.320 --> 0:11:02.160 That all these are doable. 0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:04.520 I mean, I think the one that rereaks the most 0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:07.959 of desperation to me is probably Castillo to the Mets. 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:13.679 I just I feel like, you know, you know, like 0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:16.120 Louis Castillo to then the Mets. 0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:18.480 I like Montess to the Mets. I like not to 0:11:18.559 --> 0:11:21.439 the Twins. Castillo to the Mets. I understand, but I 0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:23.600 would I wouldn't do it if I'm them, And if 0:11:23.679 --> 0:11:25.880 especially if you're talking about Jacob de Gram, who's now 0:11:26.360 --> 0:11:29.720 considering opting out, he's already throwing from a farther distance 0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:32.439 from flat ground. I'm expecting him by the end of 0:11:32.520 --> 0:11:36.240 this month. I'm not expecting anymore. I I am. I 0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:38.959 will go on record right now, it is the thirty 0:11:39.040 --> 0:11:42.120 first of May. By the thirtieth of June, Jacob de 0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:44.280 Gram will be pitching. If he's I just feel like. 0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:46.640 We're getting a ton of updates on him, but they're 0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:49.560 never great. It's never like, yeah, he's ready to start 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:52.360 ramping up. It's ah, he played a game at catch 0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:54.760 today and then had an MRI and then you know, 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:56.840 drew a picture of a blue duck because he won, 0:11:56.920 --> 0:11:59.880 and then had an MRI and then had an MRI, 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:02.240 and then he had breakfast and had an MRI. 0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:05.520 Like you know, it's just all he's gonna get cancer. 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:09.000 He's getting scanned so much so, I mean, you know, 0:12:10.120 --> 0:12:13.040 I just I don't know if I trust anything. But 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:15.880 I'm also completely jaded because I did draft him and 0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:19.280 TGFPI and that and com paired with Chris Sale and 0:12:19.400 --> 0:12:22.400 Jack Clarity and a couple other eloy you know, a couple. 0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:24.199 Of my guys going down. Yeah, and just made me 0:12:24.320 --> 0:12:25.000 better and angry. 0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:28.040 Dude, I've got Schuzer to Grom Freddy Parolta all on 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:31.439 one staff. So don't talk thything about that misery, the 0:12:31.520 --> 0:12:34.000 misery of all miseries. The other one that I thought 0:12:34.040 --> 0:12:35.720 was really interesting, and I think this is worth talking 0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:39.520 about from a standpoint of fantasy investment. Andrew Benettendi's a 0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:41.559 player you could probably get on the cheap, and I 0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:43.680 saw Benitende to the Padres, and he gave me pause 0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:45.080 because at first I'm like, what the hell did need 0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:49.160 another outfielder? Yeah, then they kind of need an outfielder 0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:51.320 because if you think about it, Drake Grisher has been awful. 0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:55.599 Profars you know, come back to what profar usually is. 0:12:55.640 --> 0:12:59.120 Grisham's hitting one sixty two with a two fist back 0:12:59.160 --> 0:13:02.160 at some point here. Yeah, they are. But Will Myers 0:13:02.280 --> 0:13:04.840 also has done nothing since he's come back. He's been dreadful. 0:13:05.240 --> 0:13:07.280 But Ben and Tendy actually does make a little bit 0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:10.760 of sense, especially for a guy, you know, Grisham has 0:13:10.800 --> 0:13:12.240 not done what they wanted to do at the top 0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:14.760 of this order, and you dropped in a Benettendy who's 0:13:14.760 --> 0:13:17.319 got almost a four hundred OVP. This one, I actually 0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:19.800 I thought had legs. I thought this one was interesting. 0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:23.240 So Ben and Tendi to the Padres. You know, the 0:13:23.320 --> 0:13:25.120 Royals are gonna book the jettisons and players or Ben 0:13:25.160 --> 0:13:26.679 andt Tendi can help a lot of teams. So I 0:13:26.920 --> 0:13:29.000 think that's one to definitely keep an eye out on. 0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:34.040 Also over the weekend. I think this was Friday, because 0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:35.880 I want to say Mayor and I were talking about 0:13:35.880 --> 0:13:39.080 this on Friday. So before the game. I'm sure everybody's 0:13:39.080 --> 0:13:41.360 seen this by now, but Jack Peterson and Tommy Fam 0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:43.840 got into it, and Tommy fans slapped Jock Peterson because 0:13:43.840 --> 0:13:47.400 I guess some kind of drama in their fantasy football 0:13:47.480 --> 0:13:49.880 league got out of hand, and Jock Peterson went and 0:13:49.920 --> 0:13:50.679 got himself. 0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:54.360 Slapped Tommy sensitive Sally, I mean, that's what it is. 0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:56.360 He's sensitive. 0:13:56.520 --> 0:14:01.959 Niger Morgan look like rational, like he's yeah, seriously, like, 0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:05.040 come on, man, this dude wants to fight everyone. 0:14:05.240 --> 0:14:08.079 He's a tiny little man. I just I am so 0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:10.040 sick of Tommy Fam. And I was a big Tommy 0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:13.719 Fam fan, Like, uh, you know, just I like the 0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:15.120 power Speed Combo guys. 0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:17.480 He's one of those dudes. But you know, I mean, 0:14:17.559 --> 0:14:19.160 Jock had receipts for this Joe. 0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:20.400 He showed it. 0:14:20.520 --> 0:14:22.360 He showed all the stuff to the reporters. He's like, 0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:25.240 and you know, yes, I was mean, and I said 0:14:25.280 --> 0:14:25.840 him meme. 0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:28.120 And like he looked like a kid whose mom had 0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:31.320 scolded him the night before, and like, you know, you 0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:34.880 go on there, you apologize, you know, even though he 0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:37.320 was completely in the right, he was like, I'm sorry 0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:38.160 if anyone took it. 0:14:38.280 --> 0:14:40.920 The wrong way, and it was for a lot of 0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:42.280 money and blah blah blah. 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:43.640 But I mean he has a lot of money, but 0:14:43.760 --> 0:14:47.120 for professional baseball players, he would be like adding one 0:14:47.200 --> 0:14:50.440 hundred dollars league, Joe, you know, for you and me so. 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:52.160 Well, no, see, I mean I know how much some 0:14:52.200 --> 0:14:55.040 of those guys play, like my my friends, my professional 0:14:55.040 --> 0:14:59.160 wrestling friends, you know, like I know Eric Young is 0:14:59.200 --> 0:15:00.840 in a league with was in the league for with 0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:02.960 Seth Rollins and a couple other of these guys and 0:15:03.280 --> 0:15:05.280 miz and you know, it's a couple of grand each 0:15:05.400 --> 0:15:09.080 in the buy ins on those grand Yeah, I was 0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:11.480 like usually around five to ten grand at minimum for 0:15:11.560 --> 0:15:14.680 those So I mean again it's it's chunk changed to them, 0:15:14.760 --> 0:15:16.360 but it's the equivalent of like one hundred and two 0:15:16.400 --> 0:15:17.880 hundred dollars league to us probably. 0:15:17.720 --> 0:15:19.880 That's what I just said, Yeah, about a hundred bright 0:15:19.960 --> 0:15:20.280 for us. 0:15:20.640 --> 0:15:23.120 So, but I don't think I would ever slap somebody over, No, 0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:27.440 that's my point. I you know, I would never slap 0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:30.640 someone over smack talking in a fantasy league. 0:15:30.680 --> 0:15:33.440 I mean, Tommy Fan, Jeff Wilson junior, dude. 0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:36.120 He has forgotten the number one rule of fantasy is 0:15:36.200 --> 0:15:38.640 it's supposed to be fun. We all start playing because 0:15:38.680 --> 0:15:42.880 it's fun. So uh, just a pansy move from Tommy 0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:44.880 fam I hated it all. 0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:46.240 Right, you know it was not a pansy My boy, 0:15:46.320 --> 0:15:49.720 Jordan Alvarez, who I picked over the weekend and Monday 0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:52.160 counts at the weekend. Don't listen to whatever Mike may 0:15:52.200 --> 0:15:54.160 Or might try to Cilia. I get those home runs. 0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:57.800 I said, we've got no show until Tuesday. Therefore this 0:15:57.960 --> 0:15:59.360 is my perpetuity. It's the holidays. 0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:01.720 I got every thing for Goldie over the week the 0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:02.720 show last, yes. 0:16:03.520 --> 0:16:05.880 Absolution, which is my five thousand home runs. You should 0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:07.160 be at the top of the leader board. We bring 0:16:07.240 --> 0:16:09.040 it up. But this is a fun fact here, a 0:16:09.040 --> 0:16:12.320 little trivia that Mike Mayer stumbled across. Jordan Alva has 0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:15.440 had the eleventh multi home run game of his career yesterday. 0:16:15.760 --> 0:16:18.200 No other player has more whole multi home run games 0:16:18.240 --> 0:16:19.880 through the first two hundred and seventy six games of 0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:23.200 their career in National League or American League history. Can 0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:25.960 you name the only player who also has eleven multi 0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:27.920 home run games through his first two hundred and seventy 0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:30.840 six games of his career. The hint was he was 0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:34.960 traded this offseason. So there you go. Somebody has eleven 0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:36.880 through two hundred and seventy six games. Who was traded 0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:39.200 this offseason? Penuts and cracker Jacks. If you're just watching 0:16:39.240 --> 0:16:42.000 the show live and you haven't already subscribed to Fantasy Bros. 0:16:42.120 --> 0:16:45.080 MLB answered the trivia question, and you will win my 0:16:45.240 --> 0:16:47.760 undying respect. That's what you'll win here for the show. 0:16:48.280 --> 0:16:51.080 But that's a fun one. I took five guesses or something, 0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:54.240 four guesses that I was wrong on everything, but my 0:16:54.360 --> 0:16:56.920 guesses were good. My guesses were sound. So once again, 0:16:57.240 --> 0:16:59.560 who has eleven multi home run games through the first 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:01.760 two hundred seventy six games of their career? And the 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:04.960 hint was he was traded just this offseason. In the meantime, 0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:07.680 let's go down the wayback machine for a second. Nineteen 0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:12.399 ninety six Albert Bell, remember the famous shit of the 0:17:12.480 --> 0:17:15.800 forearm to Fernando Vigna. That is today, my friend, in 0:17:15.920 --> 0:17:19.439 nineteen ninety six, What a time to be live, Tommy fam. 0:17:19.600 --> 0:17:23.240 Is Albert Bell. If Albert Bell was skinny, all right, 0:17:23.480 --> 0:17:23.760 like that. 0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:28.800 That's but if you're Albert like if you're in a 0:17:28.840 --> 0:17:31.880 fantasy with Albert Bell. You let him make whatever pickups 0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:32.640 and trades he wants. 0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:36.600 Because Albert Bell lived like six blocks away from me 0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:37.360 in Scottsdale. 0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:39.720 Did he ever hit you with a forearm when you're 0:17:39.760 --> 0:17:40.320 not male? 0:17:40.480 --> 0:17:43.080 No, but he is not a pleasant human being, I'll 0:17:43.119 --> 0:17:43.399 say that. 0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:46.040 So all right, I see a lot of Matt Olsen 0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:48.760 guesses and Freddie Freeman who was not traded. But yes, 0:17:49.080 --> 0:17:54.119 Matt Olsen is incorrect. Story Also, yes, no, it's it's 0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:58.400 somebody less thrilling. I can tell you that right now. Okay, 0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:00.600 all right, y'are less thrilling. And I I was in 0:18:00.720 --> 0:18:03.080 I knew it was. See when mayor gives you a question, 0:18:03.480 --> 0:18:04.760 you know it's gonna be one of those like I'm 0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:06.000 gonna roll my eyes at the answer. 0:18:06.680 --> 0:18:09.600 So I gave like, well, is it swell like those? 0:18:09.680 --> 0:18:10.359 Though those are good? 0:18:10.680 --> 0:18:15.520 On Renfro No, was it aj Pollock? Nope, all those 0:18:15.640 --> 0:18:18.880
