I 0:00:46.320 --> 0:00:48.360 don't know what's going on with Ryan, he's been sick 0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:51.200 for weeks. I hopefully he's coming back soon. But thank 0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:54.240 you for supporting all of us here on the channel 0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:56.800 being part of the Peanuts and Cracker Jacks Welsh. We 0:00:56.840 --> 0:00:59.920 started this channel last year, I want to say, in January, 0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:02.960 and we're already up to thousand subscribers. It feels pretty good, 0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:03.760 baby feels yeah. 0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:05.840 And and wasn't the number down a little bit at 0:01:05.840 --> 0:01:07.480 the start of this season as well. I feel like 0:01:07.480 --> 0:01:10.039 we've done some pretty good movements since uh yeah, we 0:01:10.160 --> 0:01:10.640 kicked up. 0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:13.520 We've we've added over two thousand since we started this. 0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:14.040 That's what I was. 0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:15.479 I didn't want to say that number, but I thought 0:01:15.480 --> 0:01:18.640 it was around five thousand, right around when we came on. 0:01:18.720 --> 0:01:21.640 But so everybody knows. We legit might not have been 0:01:21.680 --> 0:01:22.720 on today. I meant it. 0:01:22.800 --> 0:01:23.119 We were. 0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:25.880 We were grand standing. We were not coming on unless 0:01:25.880 --> 0:01:27.920 we got to seven k. But we did so good 0:01:27.920 --> 0:01:29.399 on everybody there. 0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:31.400 You go, good on the crew here, and we've got 0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:34.400 a lot of baseball to talk about, and let's just 0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:37.319 kick things off here. Let's start with Joey p getting 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:39.440 two more home runs. Yes, that's the thing right there, 0:01:39.480 --> 0:01:42.880 Aaron Judge homering not once, but twice. So there you go. 0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:45.920 I am up to eight, I am getting. 0:01:45.680 --> 0:01:49.720 Clo're right behind me. You're right behind him. Nine, you're 0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:52.880 nodding them at nine. You're at eight and mayor you know, 0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:55.800 he hit scope, so he's probably at eleven or twelve. 0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:59.279 I can't believe that he hit scope. And I knew. 0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:01.920 I knew as soon as I saw those numbers he 0:02:02.000 --> 0:02:04.080 threw out yesterday about Scope. I knew he was gonna 0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:04.400 pick him. 0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:07.400 It was the most it was the most system play 0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:10.280 of all time. Good on him, literally, you go look 0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:14.760 at BVP batter versus pitcher and the number one player 0:02:14.840 --> 0:02:17.360 yesterday with Jonathan Scope, he had more homers, double the 0:02:17.360 --> 0:02:19.679 homers than any other person had. It was the most 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:22.160 system play and it worked to a t. Good on 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:23.840 Mayor Bot. 0:02:23.880 --> 0:02:25.919 Yeah, good on Mayor Bot. And he's trolling me already. 0:02:25.960 --> 0:02:28.440 Eight home runs that's cute. Yeah, you got four more 0:02:28.520 --> 0:02:30.639 than me, and I had one in the entire month 0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:35.120 of April. So enough is enough with you. Also, yesterday, Goldschmidt, 0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:37.920 nobody's hotter than Paul Goldschmidt right now, walk off grand 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:41.000 Slam of the tenth against the Blue Jays. Julio Rodriga 0:02:41.120 --> 0:02:45.400 is looking much better in the last few weeks. Stealing bases. 0:02:45.720 --> 0:02:46.920 He's all over the place. 0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:50.960 Still leads baseball bomb still I know baseball and stolen bases. 0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:53.840 It is May twenty fourth, and he is the leader 0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:56.520 in stolen bases, which I would have never guessed in 0:02:56.560 --> 0:02:58.240 my entire life. Crazy. 0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:01.200 Somebody asked me who do you have the most faith 0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:03.560 in stealing bases right now major League Baseball? And I 0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:06.839 said Julio because he's been so aggressive. He's been caught 0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:09.520 a few times, but he's had more attempts than anybody else. 0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:11.960 So this dude is out there like saying I'm a 0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:13.880 thirty thirty kind of talent. And if you've got this 0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:15.880 guy in the Dynasty League, you've got to just be 0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:19.320 loving life. And it's so funny to me because you 0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:22.600 see the talent and two years ago there's a big 0:03:22.600 --> 0:03:25.359 conversation you were either a Kelnic guy or Julio or 0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:28.440 and Rigez guy. The Welsh was clearly on the Julio side. 0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:31.639 I was definitively on the Julio side also, But it's 0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:33.200 so funny to me that two years ago that was 0:03:33.200 --> 0:03:35.760 a legitimate conversation because right now, I don't I feelk 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:37.680 those guys could be further apart from each other. 0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:40.480 It looks so silly. Yeah, that's one of those things, 0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:42.440 you know, when you deal with prospects like I do, 0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:45.960 where sometimes you just got to like put your foot 0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:48.600 down on something and maybe the other side tells you 0:03:48.680 --> 0:03:51.640 the story, but you go with you know where you've 0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:53.240 been the whole time. You go with your gut, or 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.920 you go with you know, maybe just the talent over 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:58.240 the stats. And that was one of those situations because 0:03:58.640 --> 0:04:02.280 there was Kelnick versus Franco. There's Kelnick versus Julio, and 0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:05.720 the wide majority was kel Nick over both of those guys. 0:04:05.800 --> 0:04:09.160 And I was both of those guys over, specifically Julio 0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:12.040 pretty much since the beginning, because that guy is a special, 0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:13.760 special talent. He's going to be one of the faces 0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:16.120 of baseball. You know, we got Tatis, we got Acunia, 0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:18.000 we got soda. Julio is going to be in that 0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:20.919 He's going to be in that marker within probably the 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:23.080 next year, year and a half. He will be one 0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:24.320 of those faces for sure. 0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:28.440 Pete Alonso homer again yesterday he drives in three runs? 0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:31.159 Is that Mets just pounded Alex Cobb? Boy, am I 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:33.119 glad I traded Cobb in the first week of the season. 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:34.680 That well, No, I felt real good. 0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:38.200 I know something fun. We were actually just I finally did. 0:04:38.400 --> 0:04:40.920 I'd been talking about this a little bit. I was doing. 0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:44.560 I'd mentioned on here Brandon Woodruff some split work of 0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:48.680 first through the third inning and then fourth through sixth inning. 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:50.440 I remember on the last on the last il we 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:52.640 just dropped. I did kind of an extended look at 0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:55.560 a bunch of different pitchers that were really, really interesting, 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:59.640 and Alex Cobb was one of those guys where I 0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:02.360 believe I'm not fully remembering it, but I remember one 0:05:02.400 --> 0:05:04.960 thing he was in, like the top thirty I want 0:05:04.960 --> 0:05:08.239 to say, in first inning era or first through third 0:05:08.279 --> 0:05:12.880 inning era he had. This is before yesterday, the league 0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:18.120 worst era over eleven innings four through six. The guy 0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:21.200 cannot get through. There's a luck factor that's going into it, 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:25.920 but it's also second time through the order. He's getting demolished. 0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:30.200 Worst era in qualified of course of pitchers in baseball 0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:33.120 innings four through six, And it showed up it would 0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:35.000 just happened. We talked about it, and it showed right 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:37.920 back up that dude just keeps getting beat up. 0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:42.960 Question, Pete Alonzo keeps beating up opposing pitchers with de 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:47.000 Gram out, with sures are out. Is there a narrative 0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:49.120 that you can potentially build, especially in the big market, 0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:52.479 for Pete Alonso over this next few months here to 0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:55.360 be an MVP candidate realistically, because I know he's in 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:58.000 that wagering space as an MVP in the National League. 0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:01.000 But if you're thinking about it, if he does have 0:06:01.240 --> 0:06:03.839 the best season of his career and the Mets don't 0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:06.480 get those pictures back and they maintain this torrid pace 0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:08.760 that they're on. Is there a key Alonzo MVP R 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:10.839 narrative that we should be paying attention to right now, 0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:12.080 or at least monitoring. 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:15.880 I think monitoring is probably the good word. Soto is 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:21.240 playing pretty under himself. Harper is you know the injury 0:06:21.279 --> 0:06:22.520 stuff that's kind of looming. 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:25.400 He that's fifteen games under five hundred. 0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:27.200 I don't understand that. But if I don't know, if 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:29.160 you're going through the big names, if you're going through 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:30.760 the big names, also. 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:36.520 Machado, Yeah, Harper is still in the universe. In that sphere, 0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:40.920 he's in the universe. Who else? And then outside of that, 0:06:41.000 --> 0:06:42.960 I mean, it's the three Dodger guys all kind of 0:06:43.000 --> 0:06:45.960 cannibalize each other. I feel like a Lonzo kind of 0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:48.520 stands alone on the Mets, just like Machado right now 0:06:48.600 --> 0:06:50.039 is standing alone. But he's not going to stand alone 0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:51.240 forever when that these comes back. 0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:53.440 Yeah, And I kind of think, to be honest with you, 0:06:53.440 --> 0:06:56.400 I'm kind of a fade Machado going down the road 0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:59.159 here as far as MVP goes, So I would be 0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:00.839 looking a little bit for they're down. It'd be interesting 0:07:00.839 --> 0:07:02.560 to look at the odds right now. Alonzo is an 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:04.960 interesting one to your point, Like I said this, what 0:07:05.080 --> 0:07:06.680 I said is just the other day, I think that 0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:09.000 team needs to make a trade for a starting pitcher 0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:12.400 and their offense has been pretty relatively horrid outside of Alonzo. 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:15.120 That if they were to not make a trade and 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:18.000 Alonso were to be a big piece over these next 0:07:18.000 --> 0:07:20.720 two months to hold them through, then the pitchers come back, 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:23.080 and if he puts up numbers that are in line 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:26.200 with whatever out there in l MVP's out there, yeah, 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:28.440 you'd have to consider it. You totally have to consider it. 0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:30.200 I just don't know if he would get that fanfare 0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:33.239 as a first, first basement under. 0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:36.520 Huge media market, they're going to build a huge narrative. 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:38.080 There's a lot of writers who vote in the New 0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:41.920 York area, and no matter who they acquire, the narrative 0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:45.720 will be this guy held it down while everybody around 0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:47.440 him got hurt. All the big time pitchers got hurt, 0:07:47.440 --> 0:07:49.720 and he held down this one man off. Like I'm 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:53.120 just saying, it's what's worth at least monitoring right now 0:07:53.160 --> 0:07:54.640 where he's at, and we'll talk. 0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:56.440 You have the odds, Do you have the odds? 0:07:57.160 --> 0:07:59.000 I'll check them on betting pros while I look at 0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:01.800 these because these are some fun right here, because we 0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:04.920 have the pas and Crackerjacks are sounding off, Walkee Penguin says, 0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:06.640 I remember when this is just a baby podcast and 0:08:06.640 --> 0:08:09.080 we were excited about a thousand. They grow up so fast, 0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:12.560 and now it's seven case subscribers here. And then immediately 0:08:12.640 --> 0:08:16.080 she trolled us after saying I didn't know Manny Machado 0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:18.960 stopped playing baseball, so yues, I guess that's her feelings about. 0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:21.240 I mean, Manny's the guy I think maybe I'm a 0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:21.720 little bit. 0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:27.040 Manny's also not very liked universally. 0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:30.240 He's not very like. There's also something like it might 0:08:30.280 --> 0:08:31.800 be a little fresh in my brain. I was doing 0:08:31.840 --> 0:08:34.599 a little live betting yesterday and I had one of 0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:36.280 those moments where I had two teams and like, I 0:08:36.280 --> 0:08:38.080 think I'm gonna live bet these and then I didn't, 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:40.720 and they immediately crushed and I would have crushed. So 0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:44.520 then I jumped in on the padres last night and 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:48.640 Manny Machado was up with bases loaded, just needed a little, 0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:50.800 you know, a little dink there to get the game 0:08:50.840 --> 0:08:53.480 in and just completely and you saw him get fooled 0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:55.880 like I saw him just kind of get worked around 0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:58.520 the plate, and I was like, oh yeah, I got reminded, like, 0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:01.520 Manny is still Manny, is still that old Manny that 0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:03.840 I know. He's just been getting like a really lot 0:09:03.880 --> 0:09:06.160 of contact. Right now. He's up there, He's totally up there. 0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:07.920 But I don't know. I think he's gonna come back 0:09:07.920 --> 0:09:09.640 down there. So what do we got here? Alto is 0:09:09.679 --> 0:09:12.760 eleven to thirteen hundred, depending on the book. 0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:15.720 I'm just saying, I throw ten bucks on that. I 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:17.319 throw ten bucks on that, and just watch it over 0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:19.120 the next few weeks and see where it goes, because 0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:20.400 one or two things are gonna happen. If you throw 0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:21.920 it in a place like FanDuel where you can cash 0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:24.520 out of it and things go better, you might make 0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:26.000 a little bit of money even if you don't believe 0:09:26.000 --> 0:09:28.360 in it, and turn that ten into twenty just for. 0:09:28.320 --> 0:09:29.640 Fine know what you can do. 0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:32.640 But if it goes, it goes more quickly. It's gonna 0:09:32.640 --> 0:09:35.120 be the same thing as Harper, where it could explode 0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:37.280 at a certain point and end up becoming a three 0:09:37.280 --> 0:09:39.800 to one before you know it. So that's an interesting thing. 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:41.600 All right, Let's move on to other stuff. Here because 0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:44.280 we got a lot to do today. Tristan Mackenzie somehow 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:46.400 held the Astros to one run over seven and can 0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:51.760 win man. Your boy Ramirez from the Cleveland Guardians just 0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:54.840 tremendous season so far, drives in four more stole base 0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:58.800 hunter renfro By the way goes to the MRI machine 0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:02.040 for the hamstring injury. They're missing a damis, they're missing 0:10:02.040 --> 0:10:05.040 renfro I know Corden Burns on the mound tonight. I 0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:07.040 think there's a little bit more volatility in that start 0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:09.280 maybe as you're investing in it tonight, because there's so 0:10:09.280 --> 0:10:11.880 many injuries going on to that Milwaukee offense. So maybe 0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:14.920 just something to keep in mind. Also, not just the 0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:17.360 only guy. Freddy Peralta goes to the IL Officially, we 0:10:17.400 --> 0:10:20.200 all knew that was happening yesterday. He's going to miss 0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:23.720 quote significant amount of time with the right shoulder injury. 0:10:24.040 --> 0:10:26.240 They say he's gonna come back, say no surgery. So 0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:30.800 in your mind, what are you preparing for Freddy Pearl 0:10:30.920 --> 0:10:33.360 to return? Looks like what date, Welsh, what's you're over 0:10:33.440 --> 0:10:33.920 under date? 0:10:34.800 --> 0:10:38.640 I mean, I think it's late July, maybe August. When 0:10:38.679 --> 0:10:41.640 I hear that it could be worse. Yeah, I don't 0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:44.760 think this is not good. What's rough about it, too, 0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:47.560 is like what they've done with pitching. You know, Eric 0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:50.640 Lower's ascending, you know, into the rotation and being so 0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:54.240 good has given them, you know, just an arsenal of guys. 0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:56.640 But Woodrow's been a little bit wonky. Burns has had 0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:59.280 his little moments this year. They're not in a bad 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:02.400 spot because, you know, take Praulta out, you bring Lauer up, 0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:04.560 you still got a great three man rotation that's going on. 0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:07.480 They've got some really good minor leaguers. Ethan Small probably 0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:09.559 someone they could bring up. It's not the worst thing 0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:11.600 in the world. Aaron Ashby probably takes that spot. So 0:11:11.679 --> 0:11:14.559 Aaron Ashby is a definite speculat to pick up right now. 0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:18.200 But I think this is gonna be significant to the point, 0:11:18.559 --> 0:11:20.520 wait for a little bit more information, but ten to 0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:24.679 twelve teams, if you're on an il crunch, this might 0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:26.920 be somebody that you can dump and redraft this year. 0:11:28.200 --> 0:11:31.439 That's tough. Also, watch the Cardinals closely because they've got 0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:34.640 some injuries. Also, they sent Dylan Carlson, Stephen Matt's, Alex 0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:37.319 Reyes all. You know, obviously Alex Ray is gonna have 0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:39.200 the Tommy John so he's done, and then you have 0:11:39.600 --> 0:11:41.960 Matt's and Carlson who will go to the AyL. So 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:45.320 if I'm the Cardinals right now, you know you brought 0:11:45.400 --> 0:11:48.480 up Gorman, Libertore is gonna come back up. We'll see 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:52.080 how his cholesterol sticks, how that test result is. But 0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:55.080 but more to the point, if I'm Saint Louis, I'm 0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:57.880 seeing the Brewers lose Peralta. I'm seeing the Brewers lose 0:11:57.920 --> 0:11:59.400 a couple of the bats to the I think this 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:01.280 is an opportunit here for the Cardinals to be aggressive 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:04.000 and adds more pieces, So just watch carefully if they 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:06.760 do and make a move. Chris Bryant's gonna be reevalued 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:09.120 with the back issue. Some good injury news though, to 0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:12.880 tease Fernando that is had some imaging done on his 0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:16.360 fracture left wrist on Monday. Those images came back clean, 0:12:16.480 --> 0:12:20.000 so he could begin swinging immediately and allow the padres 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:22.240 to set a timetable for his return, So keep a 0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:24.800 close eye on that as well. Also bad news for 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:27.599 the Padreso Clevenger back to the IL on Sunday with 0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:31.280 right TRICEP strain he made just three starts after coming 0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:32.800 back from Tommy John. What do you make of this? 0:12:32.880 --> 0:12:35.360 They just rush him back or or you know, the 0:12:35.400 --> 0:12:38.280 Clevenger situations maybe physically falling apart. 0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:40.520 Yeah, I think it's a perpetual injury thing that's going on. 0:12:40.600 --> 0:12:40.760 You know. 0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:43.719 The positive about it is it puts Mackenzie Gore back 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:46.200 in the rotation. What that had done was kind of 0:12:46.200 --> 0:12:49.800 push Gore to you know, like I think he flipped 0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:52.880 with the Clevenger, like he followed up Clevenger in the start. 0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:55.520 It just kind of re establishes who's he's been amazing. 0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:59.319 He's been amazing this year, but Levee also wasn't fantastic 0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:02.040 when he returned, Like it didn't look like a dominant picture. 0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:05.240 He just looked like a picture. Returning guys coming back 0:13:05.240 --> 0:13:08.400 from pretty major injuries are usually a better bet the 0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:11.719 following season. So you know that's kind of associated with 0:13:11.760 --> 0:13:14.760 Tommy John. But next year would be the play. 0:13:15.120 --> 0:13:16.880 Let's take a quick break in the action here to 0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:18.840 tell you about another sponsor today show, and that is 0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:22.199 Omaha Steaks, one of my favorite sponsors. I just got 0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:24.920 the big box of meat delivered to the house last week. 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.360 I cleared out all the freezer space. I was waiting 0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:29.360 for it, and they sent the giant box with the 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:29.920 dry eyes. 0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:31.000 Huge box. 0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:33.000 Oh, it's huge. It's an enormous box. 0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:35.960 It's like going to the beach type of cooler that 0:13:35.960 --> 0:13:38.720 you can get, except you're gonna get all of the food. 0:13:38.720 --> 0:13:39.360 It's amazing. 0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:42.800 It's it's all the food.

All right, let's go to more 0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:30.920 delicious baseball news. Shall we can we talk about this? 0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:33.640 Our boy Ario Cone tweeted this and of course Ariel 0:15:33.800 --> 0:15:36.720 loser Met fan like myself. Today is May twenty third, 0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:39.040 and the Mets have the largest Division lead in baseball 0:15:39.040 --> 0:15:42.040 at eight games. According to Fangrafts, they have an eighty 0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:46.160 nine percent chance of making the playoffs in twenty twenty two. Welsh, 0:15:46.200 --> 0:15:48.040 How upset am I going to be when they missed 0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:51.960 the playoffs? I mean same, It's like, why do you 0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:53.040 tweet these things? Ay? 0:15:53.160 --> 0:15:56.600 Why to tweet these It's that is one of those things. 0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:59.520 I am so anti. There's so many people out there 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:01.640 that are like, you know, it's on a gambling thing. 0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:04.360 Oh this is a lock now, this is that in 0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:07.880 fantasy I got this league championship. I am so I'm 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:11.479 maybe I'm I'm not superstitious, but I'm a little stitious, 0:16:11.880 --> 0:16:14.160 and that type of stuff is a huge no go 0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:17.960 for me because that is the death call to success 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:21.080 and they are gonna be eight games out of the 0:16:21.200 --> 0:16:24.200 playoff run and out of that division in like a 0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:25.920 month and a half. Why would he do that? 0:16:26.280 --> 0:16:28.440 Why that's a good rapper name. By the way, little 0:16:28.440 --> 0:16:31.800 stitious little I'm pretty sure that was yeah. Uh and yesterday, 0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:33.960 you know we did that whole Every day in baseball 0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:37.240 is something you've never seen before? Right with that Machado stat, Well, 0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:40.080 I got two of them today, Garrett Cole. Last night 0:16:40.160 --> 0:16:42.080 was the first time in baseball history anybody had this 0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:45.760 exact line. Eight innings pitched, five earned runs, no walks, 0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:49.240 eleven k's and seven hits. Only baseball. 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:52.600 It's the most ridiculous line of who's the person that's 0:16:52.640 --> 0:16:55.360 doing this? Who is this guy that's like, hey, this 0:16:55.400 --> 0:16:57.000 is never how by the way, I don't know, how 0:16:57.120 --> 0:16:58.320 is that never happened before? 0:16:58.360 --> 0:17:01.680 How was that? I don't know? Because I think eleven strikeouts, 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:04.919 no walks usually doesn't yield five earned runs. And if 0:17:04.960 --> 0:17:06.560 you have five earned runs usually don't get to the 0:17:06.600 --> 0:17:10.840 eighth inning nowadays, so it's it's bizarre. Also, Paul Goschmidt 0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:13.760 during his fifteen game hitting streak twenty eight doubles, twelve 0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:15.960 I'm sorry, twenty it hits twelve doubles, five home runs, 0:17:15.960 --> 0:17:19.359 twenty two rbi. Since runs better than became an official 0:17:19.359 --> 0:17:22.359 stat in nineteen twenty, no other Major League Baseball player 0:17:22.359 --> 0:17:25.320 has reached all of those numbers over a fifteen game span, 0:17:25.920 --> 0:17:29.480 so that is also stunning. You know what I want? 0:17:29.520 --> 0:17:30.680 Love it? Every day? Something new? 0:17:30.680 --> 0:17:33.040 This is what I want? You want? I want a list. 0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:35.560 I want some tartlets right now. Actually, to be honest, 0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:41.600 right right now, dad wand tartletch. What I want is 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:45.080 a sheet of the stats that have not hit. I 0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:47.679 don't want them to throw at me like, oh, this 0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:50.119 has never happened, Look at this one. I want to 0:17:50.200 --> 0:17:53.520 know now what has never happened so I can follow 0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:55.600 them so they're more important. I want someone to do 0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:58.359 that work. Give me the things that have not happened 0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:01.720 in baseball so we can try. That would be fun. 0:18:01.960 --> 0:18:02.919 Can somebody do that? 0:18:04.520 --> 0:18:07.160 Let's get let's make Mike Mayer do something useful. Maybe 0:18:07.160 --> 0:18:08.840 he could do it, all right, The mayor boy a question. 0:18:09.760 --> 0:18:13.000 This is from Ross zero five twenty seven. Did I 0:18:13.040 --> 0:18:16.440
