1 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:08,320 Speaker 1: What's up, friends, and welcome into Fantasy pros MLB. This 2 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,959 Speaker 1: is leading off. I'm Chris Welsh. That is Joe Alrico. 3 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,120 Speaker 1: There is no piece of Pia today. Piece of Pia 4 00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 1: might be like under right now. We don't even know. 5 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:20,919 Speaker 1: We don't know what's going on. Well, we kind of 6 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 1: know what's going on as a scopey scope, but we 7 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 1: don't know the exacts of it. Joe will be back tomorrow, 8 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 1: but we have our replacement Joe, and he's not really 9 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 1: your replacement. He's just a fantastic Joe. Mister Rico. What's somebody? 10 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I got the call from the manager last night, 11 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 2: needed me to step up for a little bit of 12 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 2: a bullpen game today. So happy to do it, Happy 13 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 2: to step in for Joe. I hope he's doing all right, 14 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,480 Speaker 2: because I'm sure he's not having fun right now. 15 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 1: No, probably not fun, drinking whatever you have to drink 16 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: prior to a thing that men in their mid forties 17 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,239 Speaker 1: must do. That would have it would have been a 18 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: really great there's a really great sponsorship opportunity that was 19 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: missed in this entire thing, whether whatever it could have been, 20 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: you know, maybe we could have followed along with Joe. 21 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: But you know now time sales they can work on that. 22 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: We got a lot in the show today. It's kind 23 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: of a small short slate, as I guess Thursdays have 24 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: been in general. There's some early games. By the time 25 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 1: we get to the end of the show, a couple 26 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: of the games are going to start. So we've got 27 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: some best bets for you.

Joe went with Aaron Judge, 42 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: mister piece of Pjo and Judge. Yesterday I went with 43 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: Shoe Heyo Tani, both in the home run contest and 44 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: they both homered. They're both back into it. Judge ended 45 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: up going two for four hitting his that ended up 46 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: getting the win on the Mets, and show Heyo Tani 47 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: had a leadoff homer two for four against A's his 48 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: thirteenth of the year, so probably nobody had gotten the 49 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 1: extra room on the table here in the home run 50 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: contest as the big Dogs were going. I do have 51 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 1: a question in the Yankee game. I want to hit 52 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 1: to you, al Riko. This is not going to be 53 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: related to the big guys. Just want to remind everybody 54 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: that the big Dogs did eat Luke Weaver. Luke Weaver 55 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: struck out the side in the ninth got a save 56 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: against the Mariners, and I believe it was maybe his 57 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: not yet, I'm trying to remember what it was. It 58 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: wasn't his ninth save, but he's had a multitude of saves. 59 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: Devin Williams still kind of a mess. My question to 60 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: you is with Luke Weaver, is he going to give 61 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 1: up the closer role because he has been good and 62 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: he's locking it down. Do you think Devin Williams is 63 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: going to gain this now with what you're seeing out 64 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: of Luke Weaver. 65 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 2: I think it would be a disaster for the Yankees 66 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 2: if Williams doesn't end up back in the closer role 67 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 2: at some point. 68 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 3: We're still ting. 69 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 2: The thing with relievers is that we're always dealing with 70 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 2: relatively small sample sizes. Yeah, Devin Williams has not been 71 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 2: good to this point of the season, but it's fourteen innings. 72 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 2: I feel like they I'm not sure when it'll happen exactly, 73 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 2: but at some point Devin Williams is going to have 74 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 2: this job back. I think I'm not sure when or 75 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 2: how exactly it'll happen. But if you see Williams sitting 76 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 2: on any waiver wires, wh anybody's dropped him, I would 77 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 2: personally pick him up everywhere. 78 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: I agree with that. I kind of said I thought 79 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: that Luke Weaver might end up being the guy that 80 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: holds us longer than people think, and it would be 81 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: like a month or two. But I would pick up 82 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: Devin Williams. But I would like to point out Luke 83 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: Weaver has a point four to five ERA. I believe 84 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: it was like after he got the gig he had 85 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: been like scathed the tiny bit. But he has four 86 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: saves now a point. He has a higher whip than ERA, 87 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: which is crazy point six whip. He has just been 88 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: relatively unhittable. He's given up one earned run all season long, 89 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: and that was I think right around when he ended 90 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: up taking the gig over. It was like a little 91 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: over like it was about ten days ago, it looks like. 92 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 1: But he has picked up two saves since the beginning 93 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: of May. So I guess it's not like, you know, 94 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: he's been locking down a million. It's just right here, 95 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: Van Rod his dog. He's dog, And I do think 96 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: they're going to want to give Devin Williams the opportunity back. 97 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 1: But it's just like how much or maybe are you 98 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: willing to be aggressive on a guy like Luke Weaver 99 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: or even by because I would think owners would be like, oh, 100 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: he's going to lose that job pretty soon, trade him off. 101 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: But if he were to keep that role the rest 102 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: of the year, look out, Luke Weaver would be absolutely 103 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: rolling in the big sp market. Terry Scuba recorded eleven 104 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: strikeouts season high, five runs over six and one third 105 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 1: of inning on Wednesday, and no decision in a big 106 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: strikeout game, but giving up some runs in that same game. 107 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: Alex Bregman three for four hit is eleventh home run 108 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: of the season. If Aaron Judge was not in the 109 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,679 Speaker 1: AL would we be talking much more loudly about Alex 110 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 1: Bregman for MVP? And do you think he is one 111 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: of the best returns on top one hundred draft capital? 112 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 1: And in some cases he was going outside the top 113 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: one hundred, Like do you think it's one of the 114 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: best returns? And do you buy it the rest of 115 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: the season? So I asked you three hundred different questions. 116 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 3: I buy it to a certain degree. 117 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 2: The MVP thing is interesting, like if you look just 118 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: from a fantasy point of view, Judge has been the 119 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 2: most valuable American League player and Bregman is number two, 120 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 2: a thirty dollars player in twelve team leagues. For those 121 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 2: auction folks out there, will he keep it up to 122 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 2: this extent? Probably not, but I could see him finishing 123 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 2: within the twenty five to thirty homer range runs in 124 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: RBIs both pushing one hundred. I saw an article yesterday 125 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 2: that talked about how he has his own heading coach 126 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 2: that found something that he was doing with the Astros 127 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 2: the last couple of seasons. It was something small that 128 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 2: you wouldn't even really notice if you're watching just to 129 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 2: the layman's eye, that they kind of tweaked with him, 130 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 2: and it seems to have worked so far this season. 131 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 2: So I think that he's not gonna be a first 132 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 2: round player because right now he's the number seven player 133 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 2: for the season. But can he be a top fifty player, 134 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 2: top forty player? I think absolutely yeah. 135 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. There's a part of me I talked 136 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: about this a while ago that I think like a 137 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: dark horse betting might have been Breakman an MVP, but 138 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,359 Speaker 1: he's also one of those guys I wanted to, you know, 139 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: get my shares of Looking at his swing, the only 140 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: thing I'm noticing is he's opened his stands up more 141 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: than he has really in his quite a few years. 142 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: There's really nothing else in there. And then as far 143 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,919 Speaker 1: as like some of the analytics is bat tracking, you know, 144 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 1: he's squaring the ball up better, but he's he's not 145 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: getting to it faster, he's not swinging it faster, not 146 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 1: swing length. It's the ballpark. The ballpark has helped as well. 147 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 1: Funny the metric Baseball Savant has where you can have 148 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: like if a guy played all his games in a 149 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 1: certain ballpark. Sometimes that'll show you like, oh, what's the 150 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 1: benefit here? It's actually Boston is actually a little bit 151 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: of a negative, Like he would have thirteen per rejected 152 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: homers in Baltimore if he played all his games there 153 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: while only having nine in Boston. Yet he has been 154 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: absolutely striking the ball, barreling it better than he's ever 155 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: done in his career eleven point five percent, best hard 156 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: hit percentage of his career, under twenty percent. Case he's walking, 157 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: he has a nineteen degree launch angle, which is like 158 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: right at the tippy top of where he's ever been 159 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: in his career. The ballpark is helping. He seems to 160 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: be locked in. I actually think if there's someone out 161 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: there that doesn't believe that he's performing as one of 162 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: the top third basemen and wants to sell out high, 163 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: I think there's maybe a buying opportunity because I think 164 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: this can stick. I don't know he's going to hit 165 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: three fourteen, but I think he could still hit two ninety, 166 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: maybe be one hundred hundred guy close to thirty homers. 167 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: Like I think it's a it's a revival here. So 168 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: I guess I'm a little bit more buy in of 169 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: Alex Bregman than you. Why do you hate Alex Bregman? 170 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 3: I know I like him a lot. 171 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 2: I just if somebody's valuing him as a first rounder, 172 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 2: if somebody is willing to trade you another first round 173 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 2: caliber player for him, then you should probably listen to it. 174 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: But I got one for you. 175 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 2: But I still think he's a great, great asset, probably 176 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 2: the best outside of PCA, probably the best return on 177 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 2: investment at this point of the season. 178 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: Oh that's interesting. Uh yeah, probably he's probably yeah, in 179 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: the top three or four for sure. Who would you 180 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: rather have rest of season? Alex Bregman or Julio Rodriguez? 181 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 3: Oh, Man, Julio Rodriguez. 182 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: Is hitting I think around two twenty right now and 183 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: expect a batting average around two fifty. He does steal 184 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: more bases, But who would you rather have? 185 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 2: I think I would probably go with Bregman, but that 186 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 2: one's pretty close because Julio the batting average hasn't been great, 187 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 2: but still seven homers, five steals. He hasn't been bad 188 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 2: at all, but I think it'll be Bregman by a 189 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 2: hair m. 190 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 1: I would like to know, what do you guys think? 191 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: Who would you rather have rest of season? Alex Bregman, 192 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: Julio Rodriguez. That's kind of a fun one. What in 193 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: the hell is going on with Patrick Corbyn? Patrick Corbyn 194 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 1: struck out nine in six innings. He did allow three 195 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: yearned runs. This is, you know, a Rockies I guess 196 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: the narrative that you can put out there, But what 197 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: is going on with Patrick Corbin? I've loosely said kind 198 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: of made in like a hobby or Bayas type of 199 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: way where it's like listen this version. No, I don't 200 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: buy or anything like that, but there do seem to 201 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: be concerted changes. The team context is working and like 202 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: he's at least streamable and you need to pay attention 203 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: to him streaming in bad matchups. There you go, he 204 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: got I mean that's I think that's a quality And 205 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: what did I just say? I got to look back 206 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: at the stats. Did he goes six? Yeah, you win six? 207 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: That's a quality start he had with nine strikeouts against Colorado. 208 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: The profile looks okay, but my question is is are 209 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: you going to buy into Patrick Corbyn rest of season. 210 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 2: I can't do it. I personally can't do it. Like 211 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 2: he's he's been good, no question. If you've had him 212 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 2: for the last several games, he's done very well. But 213 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 2: it's Patrick Corbyn at the end of the day. I 214 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 2: feel like this is a situation where right when people 215 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 2: are going to start to believe and start opening up 216 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 2: the fab wallets and the waiver priorities, that's when he's 217 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 2: gonna let you down. And there's still some things that 218 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 2: I don't love here, Like he has a three thirty 219 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 2: five er. He's outperforming that though. I mean, if you 220 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 2: look at the Sierra four fifty two, the phips are 221 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 2: all in the mid foors. He's not striking guys out. 222 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 2: He hasn't been a big strikeout guy in a while, 223 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 2: but eighteen percent he's a one thirty whip. I think 224 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 2: this is a situation where right when you start to 225 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 2: trust him, which is probably right about now, people are 226 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 2: going to get burned by him. 227 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 3: So I think you just stay away. It's Patrick Corbyn 228 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 3: at the end of the day. 229 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, let me freeze it a little bit differently then, 230 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: because I guess if I came across as like, hey, guys, 231 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:31,839 Speaker 1: you know Patrick Corbyn? 232 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 3: Is it? 233 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: It's him? Is Patrick Corbin as a serviceable streamer? Is 234 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: bring me more of the question? That's I think more 235 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: of what I meant by this, Like, are you willing 236 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: to find some matchups here? Maybe you target teams that 237 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: are struggling against lefties a little bit. You're looking for 238 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: quality starts, you're looking for wins. Is Patrick Corbin someone 239 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 1: that you're going to give a consideration. 240 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,359 Speaker 3: To for a situation like yesterday? 241 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: Absolutely no problem like playing the playing the Rockies for 242 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 2: that kind of matchup, I don't mind it. But I 243 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 2: mean if we're trusting him outside of a bottom five 244 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,079 Speaker 2: or seven team, I think that's where you start to 245 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 2: get hurt. Like we were talking about Ryan Weathers yesterday against 246 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 2: the Cubs. If and that's an extreme example because the 247 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 2: Cubs have been a really good offense, but just trying 248 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 2: to see who he is slated to face in his 249 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 2: next start, it looks like it'll be the Yankees early 250 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 2: next week, So. 251 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 3: I don't think so, I don't think I can do it. 252 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 1: What would be do you do? You happen to see 253 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: what would be the one after that, even like a 254 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: rough guestimate of like who they'd be playing Yankees. Well, 255 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: while you look speak of speaking of Ryan Weathers, by 256 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 1: the way, he had two hits, one run, one walk, 257 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: five strikeouts over five innings against the Cubs, so had tip. 258 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: We were like, don't want to start him on this one. 259 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: Maybe the next one. He was actually pretty pretty efficient. 260 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 2: Ryan Weathers was, so yeah, it looks like so that 261 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 2: Yankees won early next week is a stay away, but 262 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 2: it looks like he would get the White Sox next weekend, 263 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 2: So maybe you hold him, sit him for that first one. Now, 264 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 2: if it's a weekly league, you'd have to eat both 265 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 2: of them. Would you be willing to do that? Because 266 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:06,439 Speaker 2: if you're setting a weekly lineup, would you eat the 267 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,079 Speaker 2: Yankee start to get the White Sox one? 268 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: It'd be dependent, like Patrick Corbyn over like who other 269 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: ones start? I would there's probably well it's about to 270 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: say this forty or fifty other you know, probably one 271 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: starts I'd rather have, except if you just focus on 272 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: that White Sox one, like that's that's pretty you would 273 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: really like that. But yeah, the Yankees, again, it's just 274 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: about serviceability. I don't Someone said I don't want to 275 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: get into the Corbyn verse. I don't really either, but 276 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: he just continues to just kind of be good. Who 277 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: would you rather have Ryan Weathers or Patrick Corbyn? 278 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 3: Ryan Weathers, no question for me. 279 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: Ryan Weathers is back. We don't know when and what 280 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: version you're gonna get of Spencer Strider when he's back, 281 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: because apparently he experienced some diminished velocity in a simulated game. 282 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: He threw thirty sixty five pitches. He had started off 283 00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: around ninety six, but then he dipped into the ninety 284 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: three to ninety four range. That's a problem. Last month 285 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: he was averaging around ninety five. Reports on like rotal 286 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 1: World is saying the club is expected to decide later 287 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: this week whether he's going to require another minor league 288 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: rehab start or be activated to start next week against 289 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: the Nationals. I think based on the velocity dip. Unless 290 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,719 Speaker 1: this is something that they were completely comfortable with a 291 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 1: knew about, I think he's going to another rehab start 292 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: because that type of VLO dip is a concern. Again, 293 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: unless they had it planned for him to not go 294 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: full out. But why would you have a sixty five 295 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: pitch simulated game for that that is worrisome VLO dip 296 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: for him, because I mean because not only by the way, 297 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 1: you know, if he averaged last month ninety five, he 298 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: starts ninety six. He's a high VLO guy in general, 299 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: So like ninety three ninety four sitting, especially when you're 300 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,839 Speaker 1: more of a primary two pitch pitcher, that's a bit 301 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: of concern. What is your level of concern with Spencer's 302 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: Strider moving through the rest of the season. Because he's 303 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: going to be back, everyone's going to get excited, but 304 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: knowing that you've now had two injuries throughout the year, 305 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 1: some diminished velos sitting out there, what's your level of 306 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: concern of like, do you want to get out from 307 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: under him once he's activated? Do you want to buy? 308 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 1: Where are you at? 309 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 2: I think i'd be more in the cell camp. Once 310 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 2: you see the report of Spencer Strider is starting on 311 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 2: Thursday or whatever day it'll be, that'll be potentially when 312 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 2: he has the most value rest of season. 313 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 3: I worry about that velocity. 314 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 2: We were doing the Discord Show when he made that 315 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 2: debut and we were kind of following along, and he 316 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 2: wasn't able to maintain his velocity throughout that start. 317 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 3: If you look year by year, every. 318 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 2: Season he's lost a tick twenty twenty two, ninety eight, 319 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 2: down in ninety seven, ninety six, ninety five. If he's 320 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 2: sitting in ninety three ninety four, that's a serious red flag. 321 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 2: If you're able to trade Strider based on that name 322 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 2: value for a top twenty five, top thirty starting pitcher 323 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 2: or top maybe top one hundred player overall, something like that, 324 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 2: I think it would be wise to consider it. I'm 325 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 2: not sure what we're going to see out of him 326 00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 2: this year, and if if we do get him back, 327 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 2: even if it's to be soon, I'm not sure what 328 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 2: the results are going to be like, So I'm worried. 329 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 3: I'm definitely worried. 330 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: I'm too, I'm pretty concerned about that. Like I do 331 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: think he's the type of guy that can bounce back 332 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: from this, but he's having like already these leg issues 333 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: and the VELO unless they give us any information about it. Obviously, 334 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: if he were to bounce back to be the version 335 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: that we know, this is a great buying opportunity because 336 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: of the fear, But to already have like some of 337 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: the down VELO, I don't know what that's going to 338 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: look like. For Strider, especially again because he is a 339 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: primary like fastball slider guy, Like that's what he does. 340 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: It's not like we can go to some other offerings. 341 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: I mean, to be fair, even if you have other offerings, 342 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: like Zach Gallen's a disaster when his fastball velo has 343 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: gone down and down and then when he loses command 344 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: on it, he can't even go to the other stuff. 345 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: And it's been you know, I mean, he's obviously had 346 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: some good starts, but like it's not the same version 347 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: what Strider going to do, because then you're going to 348 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: have Strider trying to lean more on the slider, and 349 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 1: then all you're going to have is guys waiting on 350 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: the fastball and if you're cranking it at ninety one, bam, 351 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: they're gonna put that bad boy out. A couple of 352 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: rookie lookies and then when I get to some of 353 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: the listeners, some of the Peanuts and cracker Jacks out here, 354 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: of course rookie lookie Simeon Woods Richardson was optioned. So 355 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: this means we are on David Festa or Zebbie Matthews. 356 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: Watch there. I haven't seen if there was a corresponding move, 357 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: it could have happened just now when we started the show, 358 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: it might happen here shortly. I will say David Festa 359 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: has had a couple of really great starts fourteen strikeouts 360 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: over his last two he has had no walks, and 361 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: he's gone relatively deep. I think it was five and 362 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: two thirds and six innings and he's been unhittable. So 363 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: is Zebbi. But Festa was the guy before. I'm gonna say, 364 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: I think this is gonna be a David Festa move, 365 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: and I would go and pick up David Festa right 366 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: now because I think he floats in that line of 367 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: like I'm gonna call it, must pick up, but like 368 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: I would probably dump like a Patrick Corbyn like we're 369 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: talking about, I mean, because he's a streamer and hold 370 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: on to Festa. But don't you they ask me, David Fester, 371 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: Bubba Chandler. I'm not accepting that. But Arico, are you 372 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: running to the wire to speculatively pick up a David 373 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: Festa right now? 374 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 3: Yeah? I'm coming into the season. I was a huge 375 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 3: fan of Festa. 376 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 2: I've been kind of disappointed with the way that the 377 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 2: Twins have used their entire rotation to start the season, 378 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 2: like of course, Chris Paddock has actually been looking pretty 379 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 2: decent recently. Like I thought Paddock and Sebody Richardson would 380 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 2: be gone pretty early for Matthews and for Festa. Now 381 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 2: I don't know if they're going to go with Festa. 382 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 2: I think they probably will. But when they had him 383 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 2: up before, he was only going four innings, four and 384 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 2: two thirds every time out. Now his pitches were starting 385 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 2: to I was following as closely. He was going in 386 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 2: the sixties for pitches and then up to the seventies, 387 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 2: up to the eighties, and then they sent him down. 388 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 2: I think it's Festa, but be on the lookout for 389 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 2: Zebby as well, because I think Zebby has earned his chance. 390 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 3: He has a deeper arsenal than Festa. 391 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 2: I think that long term Matthews is probably the better target, 392 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:55,439 Speaker 2: but for right now probably will be Festa. But I'm 393 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 2: not one hundred percent sure which way they're gonna go here. 394 00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: So what does someone put this in here as a no? 395 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 1: And I think this is important to see Cody Funderberg 396 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: is being kept on the roster, but this is it's 397 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: a pretty clerical move in that, like you have three 398 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,959 Speaker 1: or four days to wait for a rotation piece, so 399 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: I think I think you will see them bring up 400 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: David festa In like you know, three day, two or 401 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: three days whatever. It lines up on the rotation side 402 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: for Simon Woods, So I think that's where we're going 403 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: to go for us, so Festivus for the rest of us, 404 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 1: that is who I'm speculating on. You'd love to see Zebbi, 405 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,199 Speaker 1: but there's only so much room for these guys to 406 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: do that. And Dalton Rushing was called up. This happened, 407 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 1: I believe after the show yesterday, really really interesting move 408 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: as a catcher outfielder. I assume with Austin Barnes going out, 409 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: he's going to be playing part of that catcher role. 410 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 1: He can maybe be a Henry Davis for this team 411 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 1: and a good team that where he can go out 412 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 1: into the go into the outfield, his bats live. But 413 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 1: they also let him not play the first game. So 414 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: I'm treating Dalton Rush like I would be treating Jordan Lawler. 415 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: If you've got expendable stuff to pick him up, I 416 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: think that's cool, But you're probably looking a guy that's 417 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:08,919 Speaker 1: going to go four to five days. They're not going 418 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: to sit him too much. He's going to get some games. 419 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: He's going to be at the bottom of the lineup. 420 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,159 Speaker 1: He's bat definitely is live. It's really great for pull handed, 421 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: pull sided right handed hitters in LA. So like offensively, 422 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: I love Dalton Rushing, but I think both of those 423 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: guys you got to have a stronger stomach for and 424 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: I would treat him just like Lawler. I'd probably have 425 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 1: I would want Lawler a little bit more. Any other 426 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 1: take on Dalton Rushing. 427 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a quote last night from Dave Roberts. 428 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 2: He said that Rushing will start tedday. He said tomorrow, 429 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 2: but he's talking about today. So Rushing will be in 430 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 2: the lineup today, but he will be the backup catcher 431 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 2: and a left handed hitter off the bench, and he 432 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 2: will not play the outfield, according to Dave Roberts. So 433 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 2: I think that kills his value a little bit, even 434 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 2: in two catcher leagues. Kills if he's only going to 435 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 2: play two or three days a week. I think it's 436 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 2: going to be tough unless there's an injury there that 437 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 2: opens something up for right now, I think it would 438 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,360 Speaker 2: have to be a really deep too catcher league would 439 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 2: definitely take Lawlor. 440 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: I didn't even see that, but I kind of don't 441 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,479 Speaker 1: believe that that's going to if you're going to keep 442 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: them on the roster for long term, I don't believe 443 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: that's the case. Good question for me, Mois's, Ballisterio's, Dalton Russian. 444 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: Which one do you want? 445 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 2: Yesterday I had Rushing ahead of Ballisteros, but after seeing 446 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 2: that quote, I think I would probably lean more to Ballasteros. 447 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you, because they're working out Michael 448 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: Bush at third base and that would create more of 449 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: an opportunity long term for Ballisterios. If you're not going 450 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 1: to play rushing in the outfield at all, then I 451 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 1: think that that hurts a little bit of the value. 452 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,640 Speaker 1: Before we get with all of our friends and hang 453 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: out and get some questions answered and everything. You guys 454 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,239 Speaker 1: know what time it is. Because you train hard, you 455 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: show up, but lately something feels off. The tige lingers, 456 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 1: recovery takes longer in your performance. It's just not what 457 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 1: it quite used to be.

I picked 493 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: up Lawler last week, dropping Kurts, and now it seems 494 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 1: like Lawler is platooning as Lawler expected to have a 495 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,120 Speaker 1: bigger roll. Or should I drop to bring Kurtz back. 496 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: I would drop to bring Kurtz back. And guess what, 497 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: I would not have made that move because everybody on 498 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: this show keeps talking about how we don't like Nick Kurtz. 499 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 1: But he finally hit that homer. He's hitting two eighty 500 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: profile looks good. Lawler is a little bit capped here though. 501 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 1: The injuries are something maybe floating out there, but I'm 502 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 1: a that might, you know, have some future more value 503 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: for Lawler. But I'm a Kurtz guy over Lawler. What' 504 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: say you? 505 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 3: Yeah? I did it. Was there something about Marte? Did 506 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 3: Marte get hurt. 507 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: Or yeah, that's what I was alluding to. What we're 508 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,119 Speaker 1: talking about in the injury Well, I mean, I'll just 509 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: mention it now that Marte was lifted from the game. 510 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: He requested to be lifted from the game because he 511 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: was feeling some body soreness. They said he's going to 512 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: be back in the lineup on Friday. I tell you, 513 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 1: as a Diamondback fan of watching, you can tell that 514 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: there's something slightly off with Marte. Not as bad, not 515 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: as bad at all. By the way he is flying. 516 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 1: I mean, two homers yesterday and he's going, but he's 517 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: had to be lifted. There's some injury problems and then 518 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: Lawler came in. That could be something that creates some 519 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 1: future value. Now, if Marte were to miss more time, 520 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 1: Lawler would be even more exciting. But I'm Kurts over 521 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 1: him right now. 522 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 3: I still am Kurtz. 523 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 2: I just thought i'd heard something, and I figured you'd 524 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 2: know better as the Diamondback Sky. 525 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, Finner dropped some I think some channel points, but 526 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: a lot of cool little features we have. Someone in 527 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: here earlier was like, I don't know how to you know, 528 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 1: connect You can connect your Amazon Prime account to get 529 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 1: a free sub with us on our Twitch.

But finter you some 536 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: points here. Someone dropped VNP into twelveteen points league. Would 537 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 1: you drop Michael Bush for him? 538 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, especially to points league? I would, I would do 539 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 3: I would too. 540 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's like a no doubter for me. The big 541 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 1: Dan is Nola or al Contra rest of season. We're 542 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: going to talk about Nola here in a little bit. 543 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: But Nola got sal lackeyed yesterday. 544 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. 545 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 2: I think it's probably Nola, but I'm pretty down on 546 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 2: both of them. 547 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:46,479 Speaker 1: It's Nola right now, But well, said Logan Henderson or 548 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: Pepio or Peppatillo, Pepito Pepito rest of the season, probably 549 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 1: Papio still. 550 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 3: But I really like Logan Henderson. 551 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 2: I've just I've been a big Pepio guy going back 552 00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 2: to for a couple of years now, but Henderson's looked great. 553 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 2: I think they both are well worth being on all rosters, 554 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 2: but I would Lee and Pepio. 555 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: What about Henderson versus Woodroff. 556 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 3: I'd take Henderson. I don't have much of an expectation 557 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 3: for Woodroff this year. 558 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 1: Oh really, you're like, you're kind of out. 559 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 2: I think just when you're looking at a couple of 560 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 2: years of layoffs and that they've pushed him back, He's 561 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 2: had a couple of problems during the rehab. I just 562 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,160 Speaker 2: I don't think we're going to see much from him. 563 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: I would probably I'd probably say Woodroff on that one, 564 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: But if Logan Henderson does stay in the rotation for 565 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: a while, then that's I'm just not completely convinced they're 566 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: like a disastrous mess. Like we know that there's clearly 567 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: a spot open, but like Henderson at this moment would 568 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 1: probably be the likely player to go away with Woodroff 569 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:41,640 Speaker 1: coming back. 570 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 3: So that's why I would. 571 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 1: I would probably pick him. Let's see what else do 572 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: we have here? What do you guys think about trading 573 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 1: away Pete Fairbanks for Jung Hu Lee? 574 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 3: Yes, especially given all the closers you have. 575 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: Absolutely, yeah, yeah, that's an easy, easy one. Who else 576 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: has got in here? Let's look, I got multiple questions 577 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 1: in here written by Zach. What's the best I can 578 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 1: get for Tanner Biby twelfteen points league? I was offered 579 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: Roki for Bibbe a few days ago. Oh, going to 580 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 1: talk about Roki as well? I don't want really want Roki. 581 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: I don't. I'd rather hold on to Bibby than pick 582 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: up Roki right now? If that says enough, what can 583 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: you get? I'm not really one hundred percent sure, Like 584 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: probably if you're trying to go SP for SP, I 585 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: think it's going to be weird. You are going to 586 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: have to buy a massive underperformer like a Sandi al Contra, 587 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: or you're gonna have to buy into a pitcher that 588 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 1: is overperforming that you think can hold it. Like I 589 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: don't think you can get even Casey Miyes, but maybe 590 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 1: like a Casey Mice. Excuse me? What say you? 591 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 3: Joe? 592 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, just looking at his game log, it's really just 593 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 2: two really bad starts that are destroying his whole line. 594 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 2: Sixer in runs against Baltimore, seven against the Angels. But 595 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 2: other than that, he hasn't allowed more than to ear 596 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 2: and runs in any start. The command has been a 597 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 2: bit iffy, you know, some three and four walk performances, 598 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,479 Speaker 2: but it seems like he has really figured things out 599 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 2: over the last three starts, seven innings and two of them. 600 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 2: I think that Bibby is somebody that you should just 601 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 2: be holding, probably unless you are getting back something close 602 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 2: to what you paid on draft day. I think that 603 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 2: people are going to look at the overall numbers and 604 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 2: not be as impressed as well. They're not that impressive 605 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:12,880 Speaker 2: right now, but I do think that over time he's 606 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 2: going to pick it up. And if you're trading him, 607 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 2: I think you're you're probably making a mistake right now. 608 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:22,199 Speaker 1: Add Toxic our Boy ended up using U. These are 609 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 1: some bits I think using bits for the questions, they're 610 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 1: kind of like pseudo super chats. People can do you 611 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: get top of the line when you do this stuff. 612 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: Hey guys, I'm gonna need a pitching and I would 613 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: need to drop two guys soon with Jordan, Trout and 614 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: Acuna coming off the IL just makes me so happy 615 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 1: to hear the Kunya stuff. I'm willing to trade Perdomo, 616 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: Trout and Dylan Moore for pitching. Who would be a 617 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 1: who would be good to go after? And those are 618 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 1: with the cheers, So I don't think Trout makes any 619 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: that's weird if you're just saying like you want to 620 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 1: trade those guys, what could you get? 621 00:27:56,640 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 2: I mean, packaging altogether. You could probably do pretty well 622 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:01,639 Speaker 2: if you package them all together. 623 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 1: But Casey Mizen again came to mind. Maybe you get 624 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: like Casey Mize. I don't know if you can get 625 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: two pictures for that. If someone would want to trade 626 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: two pictures for three hitters like that, you might be 627 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:17,719 Speaker 1: better set. Okay, so the world of let's just use 628 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: the world of Casey Mice as an example. But here's 629 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 1: a guy I would really try to target if I could. 630 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: It's like McKenzie Gore, but you need Trout to be healthier. 631 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 1: If Perdomo and Trout to get like Gore and something tiny, 632 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 1: I think could work. But you might have to take 633 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: off one of those hitters, add some low pitcher and 634 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: then maybe you can get you know, two pitchers back. 635 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: McKenzie Gore would be a target of what I would 636 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: probably be trying to push for. 637 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Well, yeah, what about like 638 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 2: Chris Bubag, like Perdomo for boobache or something like that, 639 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 2: Like if you're in need of pitching one a couple 640 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 2: of guys who both been off to really good starts, 641 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 2: maybe people value boobage a little bit higher. But like Perdomo, 642 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 2: you said, Perdomo for boobach Perdomo and maybe even Dylan 643 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 2: Moore throw him in there. 644 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 3: Because I don't really buy anything. I like that for 645 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 3: long term thing like that, I like that a lot. 646 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: Actually, if we can get there one hundred percent, Van 647 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: Rod van Rod dropping the bits here. If Kershawn does well, 648 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: is it worth dropping Cad Horton. And by the way, 649 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: we also have to shout out Van Rod because Van 650 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: Rod five gifted subs and I believe Van Rod is 651 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: now the month leader, the biggest g in the chat. 652 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: Van Rod dropping those gifted subs something people can do. 653 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 1: And if you are following our Twitch channel when people 654 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 1: gift out subs, you could just be gifted this awesome 655 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: thing without having to sub yourself, so appreciate that. Closing 656 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 1: in a nine hundred followers, so make sure you follow 657 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 1: and people like Van Rod might hook you up. So 658 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: what do you think if Kershawn is good in this start? 659 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: Are you going to dump off of Kate Horton? I 660 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: feel like I probably would. Horton's first appearance was in relief. 661 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: If I'm not mistaken, it was like a bulk relief role. 662 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 1: It's close, but I think I would go with the 663 00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: experience with kershaw Okay, I think I doesn't give up 664 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 1: a bunch of hard hit contact. I'm kind of interested 665 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,239 Speaker 1: in him keeping around, especially with the team context. I 666 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 1: am worried it's not going to go so well, so 667 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: that would be more of my problem. We got more questions, 668 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: and we got more people that have used some of 669 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: the bits and stuff, and we will get back to 670 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: you guys if I can find this comment. We'll just 671 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 1: do this in just a tiny bit. Let's move through 672 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: the sheet a little bit more. Here on the three 673 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: where we got three up and three down. Cedric mullins 674 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: fourth career Grand Slam in the second game of Wednesday's 675 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: doubleheader against the Twins. He has been not hitting for 676 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: average but man, he makes it count. Reece Freakin' Hoskins. 677 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: We talked about this in the stream yesterday. Rico was 678 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: with me YouTube on Wednesday's four pm Eastern. We're there, 679 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: Reece Hoskins four for four with a homer, a double 680 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: five RBI, and he has been powering up his offense. 681 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: I know we did it yesterday, but maybe just as 682 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: another quick shout, are you buying back in? Is Reece 683 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: Hoskins going to press the top ten first baseman? Who 684 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 1: would you rather have Minni pas Quentino or Reese Hoskins 685 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: the rest of the year. 686 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 3: That's a really good question. 687 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 2: I would probably go with Hoskins, but I could see 688 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 2: going either way. I think I think it's fairly close. 689 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 2: Hoskins is more if you're just looking for straight power, 690 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 2: where I think Vinnip hasn't to this point. But I 691 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 2: think it is more likely to help you in the 692 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 2: batting average department. Hoskins is kind of just doing what 693 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 2: he always does. Last season, the batting average falling kind 694 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 2: of put people out on him. In draft season, he 695 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 2: was very cheap, but for his whole career he's been 696 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 2: a twenty five to thirty five homer guy. With a 697 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 2: one twenty ish WRC plus and we're seeing that again. 698 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 2: The barrel rates are intact, the hard hit rates there, 699 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 2: the launch angles good. Everything is solid for Reese Hoskins. Now, 700 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 2: the lineup around him isn't amazing. He's scored twelve runs 701 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 2: in forty one games, but I still think that he 702 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 2: is a. 703 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 3: Really good asset. 704 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 2: Can he be a top ten first baseman to this 705 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 2: point of the season, he's fifteenth. I could see him 706 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 2: getting there because some guys in the top ten, you know, 707 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 2: Wilmer Flores, I don't know if he's gonna stick around. 708 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 2: Soderstrom may or may not stick in that top ten. 709 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 2: I could see it with Hoskins. I could definitely see 710 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 2: a top twelve for sure. Like a worthy of rostering 711 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 2: in all twelve team leagues. 712 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 1: I think I think so too. It looks like vintage 713 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: Reees Hoskins, which is a really important thing on a 714 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,480 Speaker 1: really good offensive side. So I'm with that, and I 715 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: think I would take Hoskins over Vinnie right now as well. 716 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,959 Speaker 1: Also a guy that you know, we've had a lot 717 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: of questions for and is it real, It's a version 718 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: of real Kyle Stowers two homers yesterday two for four, 719 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: just continues to hit at the top of the lineup 720 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: and be really good. There's probably some great questions out here. 721 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: You guys could ask, I'm out there this one, do 722 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: you just real quick? And then we got to keep 723 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 1: burning Kyle Stowers or Jason Dominguez rest of season. 724 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 2: I probably still have to go with Domingez. I think 725 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 2: my gut would have to go that way. 726 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 3: Now. 727 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 2: Statistically, Stowers has been really good. Domingoz hasn't been terrible, though, 728 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 2: Like Jason di Minguez to this point of the season 729 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 2: has a one sixteen WRC plus two forty batting average, 730 00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 2: five homers, three seals, like, it hasn't been that terrible. 731 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 2: I know that three homer games certainly helped the overall line, 732 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 2: but I think I just trust him more in that 733 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 2: ballpark with that lineup around him than I do Stours. 734 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: That's how it works. 735 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 2: But all all right, one last thing I was going 736 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 2: to say, like, how bad does that trade look? How 737 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 2: bad does that Stowers and Norby trade look? 738 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 3: Right now? For Trevor Rodgers, Oh my god, awful. 739 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, Trevor Rodgers is the literal nothing. I got me answer. 740 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 1: I was a dimingaz guy. I actually might go with 741 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: Stours because of that profile, and I love Jason Dimingez, 742 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: but Stowers just continues to hit and is going to 743 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: be in a prominent part of the lineup. On the downs, 744 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 1: Aaron Nola absolutely obliterated nine runs twelve hits in three 745 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 1: and three thirds or three and one thirds against the Cardinals. 746 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 1: And on the other side, Center Grade wasn't much better. 747 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 1: He gave up seven runs in three and two thirds, 748 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: both of them Ba luch and I mentioned Simon Woods Richardson. 749 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 1: He was hit up for six runs by the Orioles 750 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 1: and then sent down. He gone on some injuries real quick. 751 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 1: Roki Sizaki told reporters Wednesday that he pitched through shoulder 752 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: discomfort during his last few starts. Something similar is to 753 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: Japan the biggest and baddest piece of the news. There's 754 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 1: no real timeline right now of what this is going 755 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:09,919 Speaker 1: to look like, how long this is going to take. 756 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:13,879 Speaker 1: There's also rumors of as this gets better, they might 757 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: kind of rework his his like releae. I don't know 758 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: if it's like his release point or his delivery. This 759 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 1: could be months. I'm not saying it is because we 760 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: just don't know. Because no one's giving us information, but 761 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: I'm also telling you it might be a month and 762 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,280 Speaker 1: we might not see him until June. Between the injury 763 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: and some of the reworking. Is Roki Sazaki a drop 764 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 1: in fantasy for you? 765 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 3: Yeah? He is. 766 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 2: And it's brutal because I know I was pretty aggressive 767 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 2: on him in the preseason. You guys are right, you, 768 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 2: Kelly Welsh, mayor who everybody was right. 769 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 3: I was wrong. 770 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,360 Speaker 2: I ranked him too high, and I'm taking that L 771 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 2: big time, taking that L. I think if you have 772 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 2: unlimited il space, sure hold them. But most people are 773 00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 2: dealing with three or four spots. I think we're pro 774 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 2: probably all filled up for most of our leagues at 775 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 2: this point. We're probably filled up in the first week 776 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 2: of April. I don't think you can afford to hold 777 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 2: them in most cases. 778 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 1: Stay it one more time. 779 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,720 Speaker 3: Christopher Welsh was right and Joe Rico was wrong. 780 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: Man, it feels good. It'd been much better if that 781 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 1: was coming from piece of PF. But oh yeah, I 782 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 1: feel pretty good. Other injuries could tell. Marte, as I mentioned, 783 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 1: was removed from the game. He had some hip tightness. 784 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: He says he plans to play Friday just to keep 785 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,800 Speaker 1: an eye on it. Blake Snell resumed throwing on Wednesday, 786 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 1: so there's a good piece of Dodger news. I suppose 787 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 1: Josh Lowe went two for four with a solo homer 788 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,320 Speaker 1: on Wednesday and a minor league rehab assignment in TRIPA A. 789 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 1: He should be coming back very very soon, so make 790 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: sure that you get that right. Red Sox placed ten 791 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: Or Hawk on the fifteen day il with being a 792 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,880 Speaker 1: horrible pitcher. I don't even know what the injury is, 793 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 1: just right flex Or giving up homers and all the 794 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 1: runs he sucks. Red Sox manager Alex cor also had 795 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 1: mentioned that Walker Bueler is likely to return Tuesday, so 796 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: that'll be the guy to take that spot. Parker Medow 797 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: said Wednesday is getting close to a minor league rehab assignment. 798 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 1: If you guys want to, you know, start picking up, 799 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,359 Speaker 1: maybe preemptively making moves, that would be nice. And Ben 800 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,800 Speaker 1: Joyce will not get saves this year in favor of 801 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 1: Kenley Jansen because he is out for the season. He 802 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: had right shoulder surgery, so bye bye there. Unfortunately is 803 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: going to be no Ben choice.

Because there's like early 829 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 1: games that are literally going to start in two minutes. 830 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 1: There's a couple afternoon ones. I tried to keep rolling 831 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,279 Speaker 1: with the afternoon but did the best I can. What 832 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:31,799 Speaker 1: do you got? 833 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was trying to be as good as I 834 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 2: could to the listeners, especially those who will listen on 835 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 2: the podcast side, because a lot of the games are 836 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 2: starting like literally right now, so there's only three games 837 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 2: this evening. Tried to target those ones. First off, Jacob 838 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 2: de Gram over six and a half strikeouts. He just 839 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 2: put up ten in five innings in his last outing. 840 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 2: Really seems to be figuring things out. And you're getting 841 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 2: him at plus money for over six and a half strikeers. 842 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 2: I feel like this maybe the last time we're seeing 843 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 2: a strikeout total for deGrom this low, especially if he 844 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 2: keeps up what we saw in his last outing. Also 845 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 2: in that game, Texas and Houston under seven total runs. 846 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 2: Its de Gram and Hunter Brown. It is one of 847 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 2: the best pitching matchups we've seen so far this year, 848 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 2: and I do think they are going to keep it 849 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 2: a low scoring game. Two to one, three to two, 850 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 2: something like that, also at plus money. And then Kevin 851 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 2: Gosman over five and a half strikeouts. 852 00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 3: He's had a little. 853 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 2: Bit of an up and down season, but overall it's 854 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 2: been pretty solid against Tampa. I know this one's a 855 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:24,759 Speaker 2: little bit juiced the other two or plus money. This 856 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 2: one is the more favorite bet, but over five and 857 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,720 Speaker 2: a half strikeouts feels very doable for mister Kevin Gosman 858 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 2: against Tampa. 859 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 1: I like those k props. I'm going to go with 860 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 1: Sigano Sagano over I think this is an early one 861 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: over three and a half strikeouts. He has hit this 862 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 1: in both of his last two starts. I think three 863 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 1: of his last four he has at least had four 864 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 1: strikeouts going up against the Twins. They are middle of 865 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,399 Speaker 1: the pack as far as strikeouts go. It's a very 866 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: obtainable number. We did this with Jose Soriano the other day. 867 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: Anytime a guy sits in that five K market and 868 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 1: they are, you know, right around four, I'm going to 869 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: probably jump on it. First five money line, my friends, 870 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,399 Speaker 1: I'm taking that at plus one ten. You did mention 871 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: Jacob de Grom, but Hunter Brown is on the other side. 872 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 1: It's heavy, heavy plus money for Hunter Brown, who has 873 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 1: been one of the best pitchers in baseball. Also, the 874 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:16,239 Speaker 1: Rangers offense has just been kind of muted. You've got 875 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,719 Speaker 1: no Corey Seeger. You just got things that are jacked up. 876 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 1: So I really like the idea, especially give it getting 877 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: plus money odds that the Houston Astros can put a 878 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 1: run up. And if we don't and this game is 879 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 1: just ridiculous and it's tied up, we're pushing here. So 880 00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:32,760 Speaker 1: Houston first five money line is one of my favorite 881 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 1: this week. And then Tyler Sodostrom over one and a 882 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,919 Speaker 1: half total bases that is a plus money play. They're 883 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:44,279 Speaker 1: going up against Matt Yeah sour former Royal and think 884 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,880 Speaker 1: Yankee as well. I love Soda Strom, you know extra 885 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 1: base hits last night. It's a great ballpark as far 886 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: as right and headed hitters go. So I'm going to 887 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 1: go with Soda Strum on the total basis over those 888 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 1: are the best bets, and you guys can make some 889 00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,959 Speaker 1: of those bets over on fan Duel, where you guys 890 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 1: can deposit five you can get extra back.

Again, 943 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 1: it's it is simmy like a feature of super chats 944 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 1: on YouTube where you guys can I don't know why 945 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:27,400 Speaker 1: they call them bits, but you know, there's lots of 946 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 1: different stuff you can do. I am going to just 947 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 1: say them or producer Cali if you're able to bring 948 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 1: them up, great because they're not highlighted on our platform 949 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 1: we used to stream, but I can see it on Twitch. 950 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 1: So a couple of the people that used some of 951 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 1: these bits, I want to make sure to get to 952 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:47,240 Speaker 1: their question. One was game game Ova Tani and Buckston 953 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,320 Speaker 1: for Julio, Riley, Naylor and Scooble ten team roto Wow. 954 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 1: So they get Scooble, Julioreilly Naylor, you trade away essentially Otani. 955 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 1: Who even cares about Buxton? You doing that move? 956 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 3: Sorry, I need to hear that one more time. 957 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 2: That was a lot of okay Otani and Bucks and 958 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 2: for Julio, Austin, Riley Naylor and Scooball that is a 959 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 2: haul team. 960 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 1: You want the best players, but holy crap, you have 961 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 1: to imagine Julio'reilly Naylor and scoobol are all taking over 962 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 1: one hundred percent like lower assets. 963 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 2: I think I think I would do it, as much 964 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 2: as I would hate to trade O'TAWNI, I think I 965 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 2: would do that. 966 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:22,239 Speaker 3: That's enough for me. 967 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: Thank I might too. AVM said, hey, well, speaking of 968 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 1: barrel rate, Adolas Garcia's barrel rate is fifteen point seven, 969 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:31,040 Speaker 1: but batting two twenty nine. Is he a hold in 970 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 1: the hopes of a good season or is this the 971 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:34,719 Speaker 1: version of Adulas we will see rest of season? I 972 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:38,640 Speaker 1: think is barrel is not one hundred percent correlative of 973 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:42,000 Speaker 1: course to like batting average, you're looking for the pieces 974 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 1: to come together. You're looking for barrel rate. To go 975 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 1: with hard hit, you're looking for lower strikeouts. His strikeouts 976 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:51,279 Speaker 1: are a problem. I think Adoles is a two forty hitter. 977 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:52,919 Speaker 1: I've always kind of thought that, so I think there's 978 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 1: a tiny I think he's going to I think a 979 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: lot of these Rangers are still going to bounce back. 980 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,080 Speaker 1: But I can only say that for so long. I 981 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 1: think he might be someone too potentially go pick up. 982 00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 1: Right now, Lucias, I sent an offer of Domingas and 983 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 1: Schwellenbach for Langford. Do you think that's a good deal 984 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:09,320 Speaker 1: on my end, if. 985 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:15,480 Speaker 2: Accepted Domingez and Schwellenbach for Langford, yeah, I. 986 00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 3: Would do that. 987 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 2: I think Schwellenbach is gonna be okay. I think, you know, 988 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:20,799 Speaker 2: he's had a little bit of a rough go, but 989 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 2: the numbers are still solid.
