But what the show really needs is 16 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: a theme song, and a theme song written by Ai Welsh. 17 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 1: It's hard to argue that this isn't the best idea 18 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: that we're gonna see all month. 19 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 2: But now who sings it? What is the Ai voice 20 00:00:58,560 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 2: of Leading Off? 21 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: I don't know I don't know what that sounds like. 22 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I can only assume it sounds something like, 23 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: Oh boy, you guys like leading Off? I sure do. 24 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,279 Speaker 1: I love leading Off. It's the best show in the world. 25 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: We love baseball. Oh, Jackson Holiday, you're adorable. 26 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 2: Why does he know? He's like the cartoon character from Shrek, 27 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 2: like not my com drop button. 28 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's very Pinocchio. Yeah, it's some hybrid of all 29 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 1: those things. But let's get after. We've got a lot 30 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: to do today, and of course it's Thursday, and that 31 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: means we're gonna be prospecting with the Welsh. Hopefully we 32 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: can get that pick axe out of your head from 33 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: that graphic. If you haven't already, make sure you subscribe 34 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 1: to the YouTube channel as always and click that bell 35 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,199 Speaker 1: for notifications. Ring it till it goes ding. Let's start 36 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: here with ten or how nine strikeouts for him, beautiful 37 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: complete game, shutout over the Guardians. We were in on 38 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: this bunch of ching. So I had a good day 39 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: yesterday on the betting side, which is good. I needed 40 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: it in the worst way of being stone cold for 41 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: about ten days now. But again, breakouts happen. Baseball's a 42 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: long season. Pace yourself. Also Welsh fun fact, it was 43 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: the fastest game since twenty ten. An hour and forty 44 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: nine minute baseball game. That's barely enough time to wait 45 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: on the line for beer or to go to the bathroom. 46 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 2: Whoa was it really? I mean, this is that whole 47 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 2: you know, pitch clock and pace of game type of stuff. 48 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 2: We've seen tons of minor league games push into two hours. 49 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 2: It's something the experiment with the Arizona Fall League for 50 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 2: quite some time. But under two hour games are wild 51 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 2: to me. I didn't realize that it was that quick. 52 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 2: I'm kind of down for it. I don't, you know, 53 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 2: like the dragged on games or something about four and 54 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 2: a half hours invested into like a twelve inning game 55 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 2: or something that makes you want to dunk your head 56 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 2: and water. So our forty commitment, that's pretty sweet. 57 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, Donnie c cousin Donnie says, do it ninety six 58 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: com style. It might have to be we might have 59 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: to figure out how this works. Oh great, I mean 60 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: it should be like me turning around like, oh my, 61 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: just as Joe Pi's appeal under it. You know, that's 62 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: a great At a baseball game, he goes to catch a 63 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 1: foul ball or like the nights found ball away from 64 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: a kid and then like crying, and he's like this, 65 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: He's like, actually, that's my Mayor's bit. 66 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 2: And then you and I are and then and then 67 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 2: pans to you and I were like, Mike. 68 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: Here's so bad, Mike Mayor? All right, but yeah, if 69 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: quick games are good, it's good for baseball. I like it. 70 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,239 Speaker 1: I got more fun facts I got. I got a 71 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: bunch of fun facts. Today. Christopher Sanchez struck out ten 72 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 1: unearned run allowed over six scorelessittings against the Rockies. Yes again, 73 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: we said the same thing yesterday. It wasrez, We'll say 74 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 1: it against the Rockies. Who cares, I'm telling you, Welsh, 75 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 1: I was worried about the only thing that worried me 76 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 1: a little bit about my wager this year about the 77 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: Phillies winning that division was one thing was a back 78 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: end of this rotation. I don't think I'm worried anymore. 79 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: Those guys are stepping up, Sanchez, Suarez, all these guys 80 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: are stepping up, the guys at the top. I know 81 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: you can count on, Welsh. It feels like the Phillies 82 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: are the team to beat in the East. For me, 83 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's what you've gotten so far. Look, 84 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: losing Spencer Schreider is that was that one thing too 85 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: that I was most fearful of. If Strider goes down, 86 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: What does the rest of this rotation look like for Atlanta? 87 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: I don't care how good the offense is. What are 88 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: your thoughts on the philm so far this year in 89 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. 90 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, and we've seen Wheelers had absolutely no run support 91 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 2: early on in this year. Aaron Nola up until that 92 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 2: last game had been kind of but like you said, 93 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 2: you had Ranger and Christopher Sanchez just absolutely lifting the 94 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 2: team up. So it's great. Sanchez is a great fantasy option. 95 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 2: His changeup has been incredible, big sweepy stuff. Like a 96 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 2: team like the Rockies. He's going to absolutely dominate. But 97 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 2: it's not unheard of to think that he's going to 98 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 2: be more than a nine K per guy all season long, 99 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 2: with maybe better earned run numbers and stuff like that. 100 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 2: So I'm into both of those guys. And if you're 101 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 2: talking about the grand scope of it, yeah, this team's 102 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 2: pretty dangerous. They've got depth in the bullpen. It would 103 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 2: probably behoove them to go and make a move a 104 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 2: little bit more in the bullpen, or like the Diamondbacks 105 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 2: did where they had the rotation kind of set and 106 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 2: then they're like, hey, we're going to go and pull 107 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 2: the trigger on Jordan Montgomery. They could go out and 108 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 2: just get one more piece to make that a robust 109 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,679 Speaker 2: rotation and a robust pitching staff. When they're offense pretty 110 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 2: dang good. It's a pretty dang good offense that just 111 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 2: needs to click, and it has really started clicking. I 112 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 2: mean every year they do the same thing. 113 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: They start off slow and they get red hot, and 114 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: then they make the playoffs and you know, we'll see 115 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: where they can gauge this year. But look, I think 116 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: this might I picked the Phillies to go to the 117 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: World Series too. I think it's the Phillies year. I 118 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 1: just I feel like that's it's, you know, one of 119 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: those teams where it just feels right to me. It 120 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 1: feels like they are knocking on the door. And it's 121 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: one of the few places that has a home field advantage. 122 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 1: There's a lot of places aren't a home field advantage, 123 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 1: and Philadelphia's still one of them. That place is raucous, 124 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: it's loud, it's tough building to play in the playoffs. 125 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: It's it's something that's for sure. Here's one from Star 126 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: Platinum to do the theme song to the Curb Your 127 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: Enthusiasm song. I do only can get the rights to that, 128 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: but I would like that that would be this, that 129 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: would be the theme playing over my bets for the 130 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: last seven days. That would be. 131 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 2: But see, that's where AI could come in, as you 132 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 2: could do like, you know, like a curb or office 133 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: type theme. Ask AI to do it again. 134 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 1: But I don't know. 135 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 2: Does AI make news. I don't even understand the whole 136 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 2: time everything. 137 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: I'm actually artificial intelligence right now. I'm ninety you're the intelligence. 138 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 1: I'm the intelligent. There you go. All right, let's talk 139 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: about some guys who had some big starts. Yesterday we 140 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: previewed them. Now we're gonna talk about the aftermath. Kevin 141 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 1: Gosman one run over five innings fastball velocity was at 142 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: ninety four point eight. He topped out at ninety seven 143 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: to nine. That's a good thing. Obviously, fourteen swinging strikes, 144 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: so good start from Gossman era still at eight. But 145 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: I think let's start with Gosman here real quick. Welsh, 146 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: I felt good about the start. I think everybody should. 147 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 1: Do you agree? Yep? 148 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 2: This is that what we talked about, like, hey, don't 149 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 2: freak out, don't lose your minds, buy in on some 150 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 2: of those elite guys, and Gosman's starting to get it 151 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 2: back going. 152 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: Now. Max Freed gave up three runs and five innings. 153 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: He walked four guys, gave up seven hits. Now it's 154 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: the astro. So again the level of difficulty a little 155 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: bit different here. But we were greating Gosman against the Yankees, 156 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: so it makes sense to great Freed here against the opponent. 157 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: And against the opponent, it was kind of a shaky 158 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 1: start here for Freed. So what's your panic mode on him? 159 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 2: I've been a little panic mode already, Like he was 160 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 2: one of the wish it wasn't Logan Gilbert. It was 161 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 2: like Freed and Logan Gilbert were like the guys that 162 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 2: I was a little like not into coming into the year. 163 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 2: Gilbert's been amazing, Freed has not. The early walks. Is 164 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 2: it's either gonna be this bad trend that's gonna continue 165 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 2: going and it's gonna put him in really bad spots, 166 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 2: or it's a complete anomaly. I'm not super super into 167 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 2: Max rate. I don't think he's looked really consistent, and 168 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 2: I just wasn't like an elite, elite guy. So it's 169 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 2: a little like my narrative base because like Goswen, I'm like, oh, 170 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 2: he's good to go. 171 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: He was. The health was a question going into the season. 172 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: I put him as a red flag pitcher in the 173 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: Black Book this year with good reason. And here we 174 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: are and Strider's already gone. If Freed isn't right, this 175 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: is a problem for Atlanta, and it's gonna be a 176 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: problem as the season starts to go on because you 177 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: know other injuries are gonna happen. It's just the nature 178 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: of the beast. So it's already April and already in 179 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: here it's bad. Michael King was good, though very good. 180 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: Ten strikeouts for him, just two walks against the Brewers. 181 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: Hee had noel yelg in the lineup, but still seventeen 182 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: miss swings here, twenty five call strikes, one hundred and 183 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: nine pitches on this one. A lot of the data good. 184 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: Ninety six miles an hour was where he was sitting 185 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: at so look, this was this was good. Here. He's 186 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: now two and one with a three ERA, so this 187 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: makes me feel really good because another bad outing for 188 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: Michael King was gonna start to worry me just a 189 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: little bit. This one was not just good, it was dominant. 190 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: Now I feel really good and I feel stupid because 191 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: I had him on my bench in one or two leagues. 192 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, let's just kind of a show 193 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: me start here. Well he showed me I'm wrong for 194 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: sitting him. What do you think about Michael King's start yesterday? 195 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm very very encouraged about it. You mentioned seventeen 196 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 2: swing and missus with for a forty percent swing and 197 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 2: whiff rate. In this game, he had a thirty nine 198 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 2: percent csw His fastball was getting stuff done. He actually 199 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 2: had a fifty three percent with rate on the fastball. 200 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 2: His sweeper is just great. Villa was kind of up 201 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 2: across the board, which was a good sign. He looked 202 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 2: pretty consistent. I mean, he's a little walk heavy, he 203 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 2: gets a little like walky, but he gets a strikeouts, 204 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 2: he gets a swing and missus And this is that 205 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 2: version of Michael King that I was trying to sell 206 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 2: in the preseason that he could be elite like this. 207 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 2: And the dude had a no hitter going through like 208 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 2: five or six innings, so very very encouraged, great opportunities. 209 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 2: If people were just kind of down on the slow start, which, 210 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 2: by the way, you know, face the Dodgers multiple times 211 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 2: to start the year, it might be a little bit 212 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 2: of a more difficult struggle. And Michael King is really 213 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 2: coming into himself and those whiff numbers are very very 214 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 2: encouraging because it looks like the starter version of him 215 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 2: from last year, and that's what I love so much. 216 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: I'm looking at some of the you know, rps and 217 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: cracker jacks of the chat and I'll often wonder, you know, 218 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: people will come into this madness here who've just found 219 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: this channel this year. The amount of inside jokes that 220 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: are already like just for like two years are hilarious, 221 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: like Michael talking about Schwarberfest being back again. I mean 222 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: like things like that. I just get imagine what people are, like, 223 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: what are they talking about? Like, what are these crazy 224 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: lunatics talking about? Stick with us, watch us live, you'd 225 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:00,959 Speaker 1: be part of the lunatic that's the way to go. 226 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: Thing was the quahah thing, which, by the way, I 227 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: am so depressed because they closed the Wah Wah after 228 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: a decade of living in this town. They closed the 229 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: small little wah wah on the corner of my Stree 230 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: wah Wah. Well you, oh no, the wahwah. The waha 231 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: is the push you go for breakfast, sandwiches and coffee, 232 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: and it's the place you go out for. You know, 233 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: you stop by for a lunch, or you're you're driving 234 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: back from somewhere where you're going to the beach that day. 235 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: You get some Hogi's. You get a hogi at the 236 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: wah Wah. I'm so mad just because it wasn't a 237 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: big enough wah wah. They closed it because they didn't 238 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: have a gas station of wah wah. It's our little 239 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: wah wah. You took it away from this and I'm 240 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: mad about it. I'm pounding the table about it. 241 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 2: You're getting paid for every wah wah you mentioned there. 242 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: I don't know, but they should be a sponsor the show. 243 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 2: We don't have those here. We don't have those here. 244 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: So Ezekiel Tovar three for five with a run scored. 245 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: He is slashing three zero six, three sixty three four 246 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,319 Speaker 1: eighty six with three homers two steals in his first 247 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: eighty played appearances. I love this. He was one of 248 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 1: our late pick guys. Elie de la Cruz his fifth 249 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: home run yesterday, and Juan Soto three for three with homer. 250 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: So obviously good things from wan so will continue. Here's 251 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: some fun stuff. Farrest Whitley came up. Fares Whitley goes 252 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: down obviously because Verlander's coming up. Today's Jack Lighter's debut, 253 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: so we'll be obviously talking about that tomorrow. Mason Miller 254 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 1: struck out two in another scoreless ninth inning, and his 255 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: Sterio Ruiz apparently came back as a power hitter. He 256 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: is reincarnated. He's still a base being another home run too. 257 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: Are you buying the power of a story Ruiz? 258 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: This is actually the first thing I saw him when 259 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 2: he was in Complex Ball and he was a Royal 260 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 2: at the time before he got traded to the Padres, 261 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 2: and I thought he was like an Alfonso Soriano light. 262 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 2: He had big power double. He led the Complex League 263 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 2: rookie ball at the time in doubles. It's always been there. 264 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 2: It's just been how to tap into it is what's 265 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 2: fallen apart. They sent him down this year because they 266 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 2: said his bat stunk. He kind of heated every call. 267 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 2: He started walking more, he got on base, and you're 268 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 2: seeing just a resurgence in the power. He's not a 269 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 2: twenty home run hitter, but like, could he hit fifteen 270 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 2: in the season if he was for high contact? Yeah, 271 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 2: I kind of. 272 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 1: Well, he's still sixty bases at his fifteen home runs. 273 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 2: I mean, he is the top, he's the first round talent, 274 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 2: but he's not got all. 275 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: I mean, the problem is easy hits. 276 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 2: Two ten, you know, or two twenty. But the A's 277 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 2: have already kind of made this commitment, Like if he 278 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 2: doesn't hit, he's not sticking around. So I don't know, 279 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,079 Speaker 2: I'm encouraged, and a lot of you might have had 280 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 2: opportunities to pick him up being sent down, people dropping him. 281 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 2: He's kind of a must ad right now, especially because 282 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 2: his opportunity is back. 283 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to some more fun things here. 284 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: Last year, I just I saw this and I'll show 285 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: and I just want to bring it up here. Last year, 286 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 1: for there were three point five thousand stolen bases in 287 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball, thirty five hundred exactly on the button 288 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 1: that It was the most by the way since nineteen 289 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: eighty seven, which was the record high by the way 290 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: three thousand, five hundred and ninety. I thought that was 291 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: fascinating that in one year that they that they almost 292 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: broke the record and it was the second highest number 293 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 1: since nineteen eighty seven and baseball nineteen eighty seven. You 294 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: had a lot of those guys, you know, the thirty 295 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 1: thirty Club guys, you know, the you know, the guys 296 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: like the Jose Canseco's and the you know, Daryl Strawberries 297 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: of that time. There were guys who had power and speed. 298 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,199 Speaker 1: That was the thing. It was this big power speed combination. 299 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,559 Speaker 1: You had teams like the Cardinals that were you know, 300 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: and that were you know, out there steeling bases, playing 301 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: white herzog ball. It was a very different time. It 302 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: was my peak viewing time in the mid eighties of 303 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: like my youth of capturing me with baseball. But I 304 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: thought that's really interesting because I wonder, now, you know, 305 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: you're talking about the early game, right with the quick 306 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: game hour and forty nine minutes, you're talking about the 307 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 1: steels being up. Maybe there is this opportunity here where 308 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: baseball can continue to be on this trend and hopefully 309 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,959 Speaker 1: get this pitcher thing straightened out. That's really fascinating. Did 310 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: you know that did you know that this was the 311 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 1: second highest total in the history of baseball? Yes? Last year? 312 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I would have guessed it. The stolen 313 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 2: bases were up percentile wise by like a dramatic margin, 314 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 2: like dramatic, dramatic, So I gotta be honestly, I probably 315 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 2: would have thought it was number one last year with 316 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 2: the amount of I mean, with a Kunya and as 317 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 2: story Ruiz and Cormick Carroll like, the stolen based numbers 318 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 2: were not just up on the top end, they were 319 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 2: up on everybody. And that's been kind of the key marker, 320 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 2: which is so interesting because stolen bases went from this 321 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 2: thing where everybody's chasing in everybody wants to get the 322 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 2: high end stolen based guys, to it kind of being 323 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: a fade from last year into this year because it's like, well, 324 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 2: everybody's stealing more, but the elite guys are still, you know, 325 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: at the tippy top. But then there's the Bryce terrangs 326 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 2: of the world that are you know, leading baseball and 327 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 2: stolen bases right now that we never really would have expected. 328 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 2: But yeah, I would have thought it was number one. 329 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: Rapid flashes and or boguards has been hard. Yes, I 330 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: would buy him and I would buy Randy Rose Raina, 331 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: both of them right now, two of my favorites. I 332 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: don't know if they made the Welsh video for next week, 333 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: but we shall see. Also Sabos goggles Ai song Where 334 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: in the world is kentama Eta for Welsh? I support that. 335 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: That's a good one that you guys don't forget now 336 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: now again, all the inside jokes are unbelievable. Welcome to 337 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: leading off. Here's a fun one too, The Dodger seven 338 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: through nine hitters so far this year and fifty one 339 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: played appearances, four doubles, four homers. Here's the slash line 340 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: one two twenty seven, two thirty nine. We talked about 341 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: this line of being top heavy Welsh. It's been top heavy, 342 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: but the top has been so good. What happens when 343 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: the top comes back down to earth and Mookie bets 344 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: stopped going five for five every day? 345 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, the team's gonna get shut out by 346 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 2: the Nationals. That's what's gonna end up. 347 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: There's talking about the way that was the only thing 348 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: I get't hit yesterday was the stupid It was nine 349 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: and a half. Even Vegas was like nine and a 350 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: half and they got it two. 351 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 2: Here's the Here's the thing, though, Like we can do 352 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 2: those speculative things with the Dodgers, but like they lose one, 353 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 2: they're not gonna lose all of them, but they lose one, 354 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 2: they still have like Otani and Freeman or Bets and whatever. 355 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 2: Like it's so uniquely great on the top part that 356 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 2: like we we can't even do this pure speculation. What 357 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 2: about the back But the depth of this team from 358 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 2: an on offensive standpoint completely suffers. Clearly, like they have 359 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 2: taken more of a priority to insively than it is 360 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 2: often on the offensive side. And it's like having Gavin 361 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 2: Lux out there every day doesn't make any sense. I 362 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 2: think he's one of the worst offensive baseball players out 363 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 2: there right now. So I'm not really sure what's going on. 364 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 2: I do think they will make some type of a move. 365 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 2: I don't know what that's gonna look like in the 366 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 2: mid season, but I think like that is something clear, 367 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 2: like you can't have that big of a discrepancy between 368 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 2: the top and like not just like that those guys 369 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 2: are so talented, but you're so bad on the back half. 370 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 2: Like they're gonna fix that. The Dodgers are going to 371 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 2: be the team that will fix that across the board 372 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 2: because they got the assets to trade but have been 373 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 2: pretty good. If theyd Michael Busch though telling you right. 374 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: Now, yeah, you would have been an out, that's for sure, 375 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: rookie lookie. Then we get to prospecting with the Welsh. 376 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: Parker Meadows his first homer. Here you go, congratulations to you, 377 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: and jose Brew went over to and made an error. 378 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: So I think it's time ladies and gentlemen to look 379 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: for Joey low Perfido. Because Joey the Pride of Philadelphia 380 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: twenty one runs nineteen hits, ten homers, twenty four ribies, 381 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: two steals, hitting two ninety seven with a ninety seven 382 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: OBP and eleven ninety four ops. I think people should 383 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: start picking up this guy. If I made my way 384 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 1: for a wire video today instead of yesterday, I would 385 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: have added him. Welsh, what do you think about this? 386 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: As we transition into more prospect talk. 387 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 2: Well, I'll take him off the list because he was 388 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 2: one of the prospects we were going to talk about. 389 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: Joey lous Well, no, no, no, no, don't. Instead, let's 390 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 1: get to it prospecting with the Welsh there's the pickaxe, 391 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: and that's Welsh wielding it. And look at that. He's 392 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: discovered baseballs and he's going to discover some prospects you 393 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 1: need to add to your roster. So Welsh, let's start 394 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: with Joey low Perfido Joey Lowe because I like to 395 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: call him, although in Philadelphia be low Perfidu. That's WWA, Joey. 396 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: Go get me a HOGI and a cake. Come on, Joey. 397 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 2: All right, so let's talk about prospects that we are 398 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 2: gonna stash. Joey Luperfdo is near the tippy top of 399 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 2: the list. He is in this top five that I've 400 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 2: got for you because he has been the most prolific 401 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 2: power hitter so far in the minors. Interestingly enough, he 402 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 2: had quite a few homers in the first couple games 403 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 2: with a really bad low batting average, and then he 404 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 2: has completely taken off. He's the only minor leaguer so 405 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 2: far to have double digit homers and we're talking about 406 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 2: like fifteen or sixteen games. He's gotten his batting average 407 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 2: over three hundred. Those double digit homers and the power 408 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 2: is for real. But his ability to continuously maintain high 409 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 2: batting average is the question. There was actually a broadcast 410 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 2: a couple of days ago when Joey Lubervito was still 411 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 2: popping with all the Homers being at the very tippy top, 412 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,640 Speaker 2: and they had Astro's management on it, and they kind 413 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,199 Speaker 2: of poured a little bit of cold water on it, 414 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 2: saying that he had a few little stance based things 415 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 2: to still work on. So pretty much what they're saying 416 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 2: is is like he kind of has like a like 417 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 2: a lower body sense to how he approaches and comes 418 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,400 Speaker 2: up that I think they want him to fix something 419 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 2: in his approach before they make this big commitment. But 420 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 2: there's also going to be some type of a push 421 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 2: at some point where auan offensive support and be like 422 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 2: this guy is just too good for this level. 423 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 1: Too good to be down there. But also jose A 424 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 1: Bray was done like he's going to get dfaid. I 425 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: think by moral day. 426 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 2: I don't think luper Fido is going to take a 427 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 2: first base spot. I mean he can kind of play around. 428 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 2: He's been playing in the outfield, but they've also been 429 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 2: playing like you know, Jack Myers, like JACKA. Myers has 430 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 2: been out there, like like Luperfido is the guy that 431 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 2: they can put in there, but I worry a little 432 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 2: bit about batting average. So I think you should pick 433 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 2: up Joey Luperfido now and stash him because I think 434 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 2: we are in a two to three week window where 435 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,439 Speaker 2: he comes up, but beware that it could be a 436 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 2: little bit open with some bad batting average. 437 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 1: Now, one guy that did make my waiver wire video 438 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 1: this week because he's only roster in about sixty percent 439 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: of leagues now because he got hurt to start the 440 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: year with Junior Camonaro, I want everybody to add him again. 441 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: Let's talk about Junior Camonaro and maybe some ETAs in 442 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 1: your opinion. 443 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 2: Well, we thought the injury was going to really, you know, 444 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 2: pour a massive amount of cold water on this entire situation. 445 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 2: He missed almost two weeks, but right on his day back, 446 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 2: smash smash, a home run, first game back, opposite field stuff. 447 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 2: He just got crazy, pure rob power. He currently has 448 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 2: a three four six slash in the miners right now. 449 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 2: I mean absolutely, I'm starting over six hundred slug. His 450 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 2: strikeout rate has been a little bit higher than you want, 451 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 2: and that might be something that the Rays hold back 452 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 2: a little bit. He is walking, he's got two homers, 453 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 2: he has a stolen base an over three hundred ISO 454 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 2: right now, and the Rais offense has been kind of ehh, like, 455 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 2: I think they could justify it. The only problem is 456 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 2: Esock parades has been pretty good, so when they do it, 457 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 2: the commitment is going to have to be an Esock. 458 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 2: Pardi is going to play maybe DH or cam and 459 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 2: Arow and him going back and forth unless they went 460 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 2: back to his original spot of having him be a 461 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 2: shortstop like luper Fido. A lot of these players I'm 462 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,719 Speaker 2: talking about. I think cam and Aro is in that 463 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 2: two to three week window we're closing in where you 464 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 2: get extra year of arbitration. That's the most important thing 465 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 2: to the Rays. But I think it's still going to 466 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:50,640 Speaker 2: be right around May. But he is at the top 467 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 2: of the list because he's a top prospect in baseball. 468 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 1: Joe, Yeah, all right, camon Aro. Again, we all say 469 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: at James Woods, a guy who been talking about a lot, 470 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: he's just been tearing it up. So any change this 471 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 1: week over a last from the James Wood discussion. 472 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 2: Not that there's any just massive change outside of like 473 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 2: this ticking clock is as big as it's ever been 474 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 2: and one thing I just wanted to point out, this 475 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 2: is another guy three four to five slash currently big 476 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 2: numbers two homers, fourteen runs, five stolen bases. I want 477 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 2: to remind you he six foot seven, two hundred and 478 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 2: forty pounds. But the most impressive thing why I think 479 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 2: not only is he coming up soon, but he is 480 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 2: gonna find success, is the lowered k rate. He has 481 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,880 Speaker 2: the same walk and strikeout rate right now twenty percent, 482 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 2: striking out twenty percent of the time and walking twenty 483 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 2: percent of the time, which is absolutely crazy. He had 484 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 2: an over thirty three percent strike cut rate last year 485 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 2: in Double A. He's good friends with Jackson Merrill. He 486 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 2: actually spent some of the offseason with Jackson Merril. I 487 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 2: like to pretend to my little world that he ended 488 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 2: up getting some more plate presence and working on his strikeouts. 489 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 2: He has got the tools of tools. When you think 490 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 2: about the Ellis of the world, this is that guy. 491 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 2: He's stealing a ton of bases. He is coming soon, 492 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 2: and the Nationals are winning some games. There's only so 493 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 2: much longer they're going to keep him down again. If 494 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 2: May first hits and James Wood isn't up, I would 495 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 2: be surprised. 496 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 1: Good question here from Brandon stashing Kerstad right now? Would 497 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: you hold on to him or prefer Low Berffedo. I 498 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: like Kierstad better as a hitter from what I've seen, 499 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: but and it's not a knock on Loperfito. I just 500 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 1: that's how much I like Kerstad. Here's my only thing. 501 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: I feel like the low Perfido pathway is sooner, Like 502 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: I think right now, Kierstad's kind of stuck. You know, 503 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: Cedric Walldins is a big walk off moment too, Like 504 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a room at the inn 505 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 1: right now for him. Where is low Perfido right now? 506 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 1: I mean, the astros are struggling. They need to figure 507 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 1: some stuff out. 508 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:39,479 Speaker 2: What do you think I agree with you on that. 509 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 2: I'll tell you this. Kirstad's in an interesting spot because 510 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 2: that team, that Norfolk team is ridiculous. I do believe 511 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 2: that he's the next Oriole to come up, except if 512 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 2: something were to happen where the Orioles kind of let 513 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 2: go of this Jackson Holiday stuff where like Jackson Holiday, 514 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 2: they've given him a very large rope and if they 515 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 2: were just cut that come on. But if they were 516 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 2: decide to cut that it wouldn't make sense for Kurstad 517 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 2: to take his spot because rfield No Kobe Mayo, well, 518 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 2: Karen Norby would make some sense, but I think they 519 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 2: moved Westburg over to second, and Kobe Mayo would be 520 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 2: a person play third. 521 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 1: But Kurstad's about embarrassment of riches, like it's crazy. 522 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 2: They're the bestball team, better than the White Sox right now, 523 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 2: maybe better than the ag Yeah, maybe better than the 524 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:24,959 Speaker 2: White Sox. They would die to put that roster ock here. 525 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 2: But seven homers for kurs Dad, you want to check 526 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 2: out where he ranks versus luper Fido, go check out 527 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 2: my article on fantasy pros right now for prospects to stash. 528 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 2: You can absolutely see where he ranks as a top 529 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 2: ten list. But I got two more in their pictures, Joe, Yeah, 530 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 2: you want to plow through them there. The easy quick 531 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 2: one is Paul Skeins. Paul Skeins, he's coming again May first. 532 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,679 Speaker 2: If he's not called up, I would be surprised. Twenty 533 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,159 Speaker 2: percent swinging strike great. He has an over fifty k 534 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 2: minus walk percentage, which is absolutely absurd. Three starts though, 535 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 2: of three innings. They are saving those bull or they're 536 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 2: babying him. We still don't know. I'm leaning on saving 537 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 2: those bullets and he'll be up soon. And then finally, 538 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 2: we've talked a decent amount about him. If we are 539 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 2: highlighting a top five stash situation here Christian Scott. Yeah, 540 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 2: Christian Scott with the New York Mets. We've talked about 541 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 2: his last start, ten strikeouts over five innings. He's got 542 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 2: a four ERA, but he's got a sub one whip 543 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 2: nineteen strikeouts and nine innings. I love the combination of 544 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 2: the fastball slider with the splitter that he implements. And 545 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 2: I think he's gonna be up pretty pretty soon. And 546 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 2: there's more names over on my article, like I said, 547 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 2: over on Fantasy Pro, so you can follow me on 548 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 2: Twitter at is it the Welsh to see it? Ten 549 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 2: names and even a few more names that you can 550 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 2: keep on your watch list moving forward in the year. 551 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: Ten things I love about you Welsh? 552 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:45,360 Speaker 2: Oh good one? 553 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: Oh yeah there you go. Oh by the way, you know, 554 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: I love Heath Ledgerd. I think that movie's overrated. My 555 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: daughters love it. I think it's a little overrated. I 556 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 1: took a lot of heat the other day at dinner 557 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: about this. It's like I like it. I just think 558 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 1: I don't know. I always wanted it to be more 559 00:24:57,960 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: than it was. And I'm a big rom com kind 560 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 1: of kind of guy. Just I don't know, not a 561 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: big round I'm more when Harry met Sally, I'm kind 562 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 1: of a prospect guy. You're a prospect guy. There you go, everybody, 563 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 1: all right, let's get to the three up and three down. 564 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: Mike Trout one for four with a homer. He just 565 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: keeps hitting home runs. Kyle Schwarber Schwarberfest two more homers 566 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 1: for him, big win for the Philadelphia Phillies and Bryce Miller. 567 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: Great performance from him over the Reds. There one run, 568 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: one hit over six innings, three down. My boy, Julian 569 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: Oh for four, struck out three times. I don't like this. Well, 570 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,199 Speaker 1: he is striking out way too much. That's not his 571 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: game in the minor leagues. I don't know what's going 572 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: on with him. I'm a little worried. I'm a little annoyed. 573 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: We'll see if it's just like a little blip on 574 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,679 Speaker 1: the radar, something's bothering him. Confidence that whatever it is 575 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 1: hopefully figures it out. Also, David Bednar not good gave 576 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:46,479 Speaker 1: up three runs and two thirds of an inning, so 577 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 1: things are going south for him very quick. Speaking of 578 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 1: the Pirates too, Jacksonwinsky oh for four against the Mets. 579 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: He's in a buck seventy two. Is Jacksonwinsky on the 580 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 1: way to the waiver wire for a lot of teams? 581 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 2: Uh ooh for team? I thought he was saying like the's' 582 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 2: be like no, no, not for Pirates, but for for fantasy. 583 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: I think people are like, why am I holding this 584 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: guy when there's a lot of like I should be 585 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: stashing a litt perfito or curestat are these guys? 586 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 2: That's actually really good point. I was gonna say, people 587 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,239 Speaker 2: might be kicking themselves if they had Sewensky didn't want 588 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 2: to drop him when guys at Clton Kowser were sitting 589 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 2: out there. But yeah, at this point, Swensky's not playing 590 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,360 Speaker 2: to a level that you you should feel pot committed 591 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 2: that you got to keep holding. Yeah, you could absolutely 592 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,159 Speaker 2: dump for a cursed ad or a loop Berfido if 593 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 2: you're just looking for some production here soon, because all 594 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 2: those guys, all the five players we just talked about, 595 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,640 Speaker 2: like these are in the window of the next couple 596 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 2: of weeks. We do this next week. This is gonna 597 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 2: be kind of similar again. Once we start going down 598 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 2: the shroad. These guys should be coming up soon, just 599 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,360 Speaker 2: like hey, Jack Lder was in my article from two 600 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 2: weeks ago. He's already up. You know you're gonna start 601 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 2: seeing more and more of these, especially over the next 602 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 2: couple of weeks. So yeah, better than stashing a struggling 603 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 2: Jack Swinsky. 604 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,919 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get high falutin here for a second with 605 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: our friend here in the chat, BT fouts. He says 606 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: it's never easy to adapt Shakespeare. You're right, Bet, it's 607 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 1: not because Shakespeare is the greatest, So whenever you try 608 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: to modernize it or whatever it is, you're already a 609 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: step behind everything. So there you have it. Everybody either 610 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: commit to doing a version of the Shakespeare play just 611 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: set it in the high school, or don't do it. 612 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: I'm with you, BT is very hot, but I'm talking 613 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 1: about ten things I hate about you.

Another bad one for him. Five runs, 622 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: five hits and a third of an inning, yikes. And 623 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: then Garrett Whitlock, who we knew was going on the IL, 624 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 1: officially went on the IL.

If you haven't already 636 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: download the Betting Pros app check it out. Amazing what 637 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 1: you could do there. But also using that prop bet 638 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: cheat sheet is just perfect, especially on a day like 639 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: this where things are a little light, really helps you 640 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: kind of zero in on the best odds of places. 641 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: So give me the Cubs on the run line minus 642 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,719 Speaker 1: one and a half plus one forty eight against the 643 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: Marlins here. I like that one a lot. Also, we've 644 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: got Marcus Simeon over point five RBI you get plus 645 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: money plus one sixty five on that. And then Cody 646 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: Bellinger in this matchup today starting to kind of like, 647 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 1: I feel like kick out of the slump a little 648 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: bit over zero point five run scored for him at 649 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: plus one forty So I think those are some really 650 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 1: nice plus money bets on a lighter schedule today. So 651 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: the Cubs on that minus one and a half run line, 652 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: Marcus Seman over the RBI point five and over the 653 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 1: run point five number here for Cody Bellinger. No parlays 654 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 1: for me today because it's just again limited Thursday slate. 655 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 1: But Welsh, what do you have for the people that's 656 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: fun On the betting side of things. 657 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 2: I was literally locking in a couple of those bets 658 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 2: because not only is it like a massively low today 659 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 2: in the amount of games they are playing, so most 660 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 2: of them are playing in like five or ten minutes 661 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 2: like they're early, so I don't know why they're also 662 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 2: throwing to us early, So make sure to get your 663 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 2: bets in. My play of the day is a later 664 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 2: day bet though, so you got a little bit of 665 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 2: wiggle room. And I'm going with my Diamondbacks through the 666 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 2: first five innings. I'm taking the money line, which is 667 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 2: plus money plus one thirty. They're going to getst the 668 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 2: Giants and Logan Web. Ryan Nelson is on the mound, 669 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 2: so that's why it's a little bit less, but the 670 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 2: Diamondbacks or you're getting plus money, and the Diamondbacks are 671 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 2: the number one scoring team through the first five innings, 672 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 2: while the Giants are on the bottom five of the 673 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 2: league and scoring through the first five. Diamondbacks over half 674 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 2: of their starting roster actually has a career three hundred 675 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 2: plus average against Logan Web. Logan Web's been okay so 676 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 2: far this year. The Giants, they actually do worse against 677 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 2: righties than lefties. And Ryan Nelson, though his era has 678 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 2: been a little bit inflated, is actually a little bit 679 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 2: better than his stats are actually showing. Xtip is over 680 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 2: a full run lower. So I'm gonna take those first 681 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 2: five innings, where there's actually almost a two run difference 682 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 2: between them in scoring on the year. I'm gonna take 683 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 2: plus money on the Diamondbacks. That's my favorite play of 684 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 2: the day through the first five. My others, it's literally 685 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 2: about to start up. I had someone yesterday called me 686 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 2: the nerfy god because we've been hitting them good. 687 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: This is good yesterday too, let me tell you. 688 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, And this one's a little bit riskier and I 689 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 2: say that and I'll probably lose it, but I'm going 690 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 2: with the Angels and Tampa Bay no run first inning, 691 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 2: the odds between like one twenty one fifth even dropping 692 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 2: a little bit Ryan Pepio. I think that's the key, 693 00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 2: is the Rays stopping the Angels a little bit, and 694 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 2: Pepio's on the mount, which I like, and Griffin Canning 695 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 2: with the Rais lineup, I'm a little bit less worried about. 696 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 2: So that's my nerf You play number two, and then 697 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,719 Speaker 2: finally I'm going to back Jack Lder. I did a 698 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 2: social video on Jack Lighter for you guys to watch, 699 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 2: and I'm going Texas money line, which is right at 700 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 2: that like minus one to twenty marker. It's actually pretty 701 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 2: even odds because they don't know what they're getting. But 702 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 2: guess what, Jack Lder's been striking out guys, not walking, 703 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 2: but he's got a home run problem. But the Tigers 704 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 2: have not been hitting rdy super well. They have not 705 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 2: been hitting homers super well. And I think this is 706 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 2: actually a pretty good matchup for Jack Lider, especially in 707 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 2: his debut. Kintamayta over ten home run on fly balls 708 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 2: ten percent. So I'm going to back the Texas Rangers 709 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 2: and take the money line for my third bet, because boy, 710 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 2: it is some hard work mining for bets today with 711 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 2: the short cities. 712 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 1: But here's the thing, and I know when it's day games, 713 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: people are saying, you know, if I can't watch the 714 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,719 Speaker 1: show live, you know, unfortunately I'm gonna MISSUF.

So just wanted to get that 737 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: out there. Those are the best bets all of the 738 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: day for Thursday in Major League Baseball, before we get 739 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: to the home run calls and and the wheel. I 740 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: assume we're back, why we'll say no wheel, that's it. 741 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: The wheel is There was a good question here. I 742 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: wanted to pull this up from Jorge Welsh, how close 743 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: is pretty soon for Christian. 744 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 2: Scott everybody that I mentioned to you, I think we're 745 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 2: in the two week window. Now. I don't have a 746 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 2: magic I don't have a magic wand it might not happen, 747 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 2: but this might be like May first right around there. 748 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 2: I think this next week is really important because then 749 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 2: you're pushing back any of that like extra year compensation. 750 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 2: But all of three, all five of those guys that 751 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 2: we talked about, MY assumption is in the two weeks. 752 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 2: So if it May first happens so they're not up, 753 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 2: I would be a little bit surprised, and then maybe 754 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 2: I'm making other moves. But then the problem is just 755 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 2: like I think they'll be up any day. But you 756 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 2: know what, Hey, sometimes I'm right about this and then 757 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 2: sometimes it's Christian. 758 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 1: The Scott one would surprise me because I feel like 759 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: again with Boutau pitching how well he's pitched and Sanga 760 00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 1: on his way back, I think I think that one 761 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 1: might take longer. I could be totally like, well, shit 762 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: like could be totally wrong. You never know these organizations 763 00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 1: sometimes they just flip the script. I think it would 764 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: be very interesting to see, you know how Howser and 765 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: Mania pitch because again manyas specifically, if he has another 766 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: bed outing, you could easily move into the bullpen, Like 767 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: that's a move that you could make and it would 768 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: probably be better for everybody involved. 769 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 2: So that that's like, how long do you want a 770 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 2: talented young pitcher to be wasting good outing in triple A? 771 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 2: How Like how many innings are they going to be 772 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 2: comfortable with come May if Manaya is stinking or Houser 773 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 2: stinking and not wanting to give him an opportunity. 774 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 1: So I don't think that's see Christian Scott in April. 775 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 1: I really don't. Definitely not. I'd be surprised, I hope. 776 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: So that would be nice. You know what else I'd 777 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 1: like to see somebody win this the Jose Ramirez autograph. Jersey, 778 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 1: just drop your comments below on a video subscribe to 779 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 1: Fantasy Bros MLB. Yeah, and that's it. That's all you 780 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,800 Speaker 1: got to do to win this, And it's time to 781 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 1: look at the home run board and continue on. So 782 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:50,720 Speaker 1: I have fallen down here. I'm just at eight now 783 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 1: with everybody else. Everybody else joined you, geez, everybody caught up. 784 00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: I've been stone cold recently, so Welsh. Now that you're 785 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 1: back to picking your own home runs like a big boy. 786 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: Who do you have today? 787 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, big boy taking his own home runs. I'm back 788 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 2: in those Texas Rangers, and I'm gonna back Adolice Garcia. So, 789 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 2: like I said, outside of Jack Glider, I think one 790 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 2: of the bigger home run to flyball ratios is Quentemayeda today. 791 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:18,399 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna attack for one of the bigger power 792 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 2: hitters in adols. 793 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 1: So there you go, there you go. I'm gonna go 794 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 1: with Cody Bellinger again. If I'm already in invested in him, 795 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna continue. He Actually, you know, so far this 796 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 1: year against left handed there's been pretty good. J Puck's 797 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 1: on the mound. He's not long for this game. Give 798 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,839 Speaker 1: me middle relief and I shall show you, Homer. That's 799 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 1: what I say. So hopefully we're right about this. I'd 800 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: like to get up to nine, to that top spot. 801 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 1: That's what I'd like to do.

I felt like, as the kids say, we 811 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:07,760 Speaker 1: ate today. 812 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 2: We cooked I think one. 813 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, I ate collectively. 814 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 2: There's like nothing left by the way a giant bought 815 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 2: my kids fan Oh the Tri Colors were number one. 816 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 2: I was actually had no never had any of those things. 817 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 2: My wife got very excited about the cannoli and then 818 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 2: the kids demolished the Tri Colors a big hit in 819 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,840 Speaker 2: the household today. But we're not eating today because we 820 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 2: and everyone was up super late. Now I'll sugared up 821 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 2: last night.
