I'm I'm very 42 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 4: pleased with what happened, and I'd rather take a step 43 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 4: back than have to go too far next year with 44 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 4: a bunch of foty year old pitchers and set the 45 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 4: organization back for I don't know, ten years. 46 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 2: I think this is their job. 47 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: This is the thing to ask him since you were 48 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: not here for all this, because this is the only 49 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: thing I would get your take on. Do you actually 50 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: believe that the Mets are rebuilding for the next years? 51 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 2: Do you believe? 52 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,799 Speaker 1: Because I don't. I think this is all a ruse. 53 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: I think this is sleight of hand. They're like, look 54 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: over here, and then they're just gonna go BAA in 55 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: the off season. I don't believe it. But do you 56 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 1: actually believe that they're gonna do this and build around 57 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 1: Gilbert and Kunya and the Pee Alonzo trade rumors in 58 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,679 Speaker 1: the off season?

And let's be 63 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 4: honest here, Max Suers are crap the bet in the 64 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 4: playoffs last year. You know, I make fun of Mad 65 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 4: Dog a lot because it's fun, but mad Dog was right. 66 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 4: I don't know if you saw that ramp that he 67 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 4: had about the whole thing where he's like. 68 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 2: Matt, surey, you pan them all his money and next 69 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 2: thing you know, I got that in to play. I 70 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 2: think about full home runs. I've never seen anybody boot 71 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,399 Speaker 2: off a mound the way I seen that guy. 72 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 4: And there's Stephen A Smith behind him, just kind of 73 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 4: chuckling with his hands over his mouth and stuff like that, 74 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 4: and I'm and and I'm I'm like, you know what, 75 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 4: You're right, And then you know he's had some injury issues, 76 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 4: He's had some you know, other hiccups there. But to 77 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 4: be honest, if you're looking at the body of work 78 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 4: from Sureser, it was a little disappointing overall because the 79 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 4: big spots when. 80 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 3: He was bitual against the Braves for the division, he 81 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 3: cropped the bed the next thing, you know, and then he. 82 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 4: Goes out in the playoffs and what happened in the 83 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 4: playoffs full home run to get dude, I get the 84 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 4: said you. 85 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 2: Have goo padres. 86 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 4: They got the padres for god, take the next thing, 87 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 4: you know, you're out there and then then now you 88 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 4: know what. 89 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 2: Yo, Yeah, the organization had the right to trade you. 90 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 2: If they want to trade you, they go ahead and 91 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 2: they trade you. And now he's intective. Don't see what happens. 92 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: Then you're Russo impression. The audio of the Russo impression 93 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,839 Speaker 1: versus the visual. People don't know if you don't watch 94 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: the YouTube, which you should subscribe to, the Vincy Pro MLB. 95 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: The visual that Joe has when he does Robert de Niro, 96 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: like you turn into Denier. Yeah, you literally turn into DeNiro. 97 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: I don't know what's better. Is it the Russo impression 98 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: or the de Niro physical. Look, he's very you're very 99 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: good class six slapsticky, Joe. You really turn It's like 100 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: Jim Carrey. 101 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much. 102 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 4: Sure, you know it's I will say this like I said, 103 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 4: I I agree with you, just to recap in all 104 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 4: honesty that I don't think they're out of the Otani 105 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 4: sweep steaks. I think they're gonna be very much in 106 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 4: Giolito sweepstakes and very much in Aaronola sweepstakes. Like I 107 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 4: think they're going to retool the pitching. I think they 108 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 4: realized they tried really hard to hold on Real Type 109 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 4: for one more run. 110 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 2: It did not work. So what are we doing here? 111 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: You need it. 112 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 4: You get a bunch of prospects, And it wouldn't shock 113 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 4: me if they flipped those prospects to bring in Sodo. 114 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 4: If the Padres thing all falls apart and they decide 115 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 4: to blow everything up like they've got a lot of 116 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 4: options now and not all these prospects are gonna come. 117 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 2: Up and play for the Mets. And that's you know 118 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 2: that fact. I don't know if you saw that stat. 119 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 4: The MLB coverage that they did for a trade deadline, 120 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 4: but it was something to the long lines of you know, 121 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 4: something like three or or eight percent or something like 122 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 4: that of so these prospects they go back and forth 123 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 4: and these deals actually make it impact. 124 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 2: There aren't quote unquote. 125 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like one in four, like one in four. 126 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: Act up. We talked about this on Rates and Barrels 127 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 1: that one in four prospects on the deadline have an 128 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: over two career war which you know. 129 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 4: Well, then there was a staggering stat of the number 130 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 4: of that don't even ever get to play in the majors, 131 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 4: which was also stunning. So, look, prospects are capital at 132 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 4: the end of the day, It's what they are. Some 133 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 4: of the capitale heavier is very good. They can go 134 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 4: out in there and can make some moves. But I 135 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 4: don't think there I agree with you. I don't think 136 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 4: they're like, oh yeah, we're not competing for two years. 137 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 4: I think that's the line that they sent to Max 138 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 4: Schurzer to get him out of town because they wanted 139 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 4: to get him out of town and they wanted him 140 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 4: to feel uncomfortable that staying here was not in the 141 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 4: plans for him because I think next year they didn't 142 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 4: think that he gave them the best chance to win. 143 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: And that's just honest lowering expectations. You know, if you 144 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: if you've set a low bar in net. 145 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 4: Fan since nineteen eighty four, I've been lowering expectations since 146 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 4: nineteen eighty seven. 147 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: Lowered expect Hey breaking news from Anthony XC seven according 148 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: to Mark Tope Topkin that the Razor calling up Curtis Mead. 149 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: Curtis Mead, who is one of their top prospects. Fun fact, 150 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: anyone who's prospect one related knows it's my one of 151 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 1: my worst interviews I've ever done, so bad that I 152 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: didn't air it that I did with Curtis Meat at 153 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: the Arizona Fall League. I literally just it was actually, like, 154 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: I think it was my first interview off of the 155 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 1: COVID year lost, so I was a little rusty and 156 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: I asked him just some of the dumbest questions and 157 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: he couldn't have been kinder and nicer, but it was 158 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: so bad I scrapped it and it just lives in 159 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: the Prospect Won vault of interviews. But Curtis Meat, high 160 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: contact hitter, kind of low counting stats, especially this year 161 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: he's had a lot of injuries. He would be somebody 162 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 1: you might want to take a look at, but it's 163 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: in the South Freelick Well self really has been going nuts, 164 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: but it's in the South Freelick world of where will 165 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: you get the counting stats? He's very interesting prospect. Maybe 166 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: you guys want to go pick him up. But let's 167 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: look at the headlines. Shoe and how appropriate that shoe 168 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: Heo Tani is at the top because Shoeo Tani pitched 169 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,559 Speaker 1: a little bit yesterday, came out with some cramp stuff. 170 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: But fortieth home run of the season. He is top 171 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: to be. Fourteen stolen bases, forty home runs not traded 172 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: al MVP. Do you did you? Did you get a 173 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: ticket for Otani? 174 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: Oh ticket? I had a no ticket. I had I 175 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 2: had to mean a whole ticket. I had to be 176 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 2: an old tickets a long time ago, before the season 177 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 2: even started. No, I hadn't I had a no TWI ticket. 178 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 4: Samuel ticket at the two and a half when the 179 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 4: season started, because I was like, look, I just have 180 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 4: to be in on this anyway. 181 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 2: And then I had no tani Cy Young ticket as. 182 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 4: Well, which is getting really interesting now that the McClanahan 183 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 4: injury is coming, which I know that could be a 184 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 4: nice little segue we're doing here, But if you look 185 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 4: at it, Shoey Otani right now is plus three thousand. 186 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 2: So for that award, it was, you know, earlier in 187 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: the year, not even that good. 188 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 4: And I feel like, if you're looking at the boring 189 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 4: thing is still Garrett Coles the chalk. But I think 190 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 4: that's just a really public nonsense number because there's a 191 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 4: lot of Yankee money. I think everyone if the Angels 192 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 4: make the playoffs, Welsh, don't you think they're good to 193 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 4: all push in and say let's just give Otani all 194 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 4: the stuff, because I know fra Amber Valde has had. 195 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: His moment this week, but he had been bad. 196 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 4: With you know, natiy Valdi missing time, like Garrett Cole's 197 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 4: been very steady's very at the top. 198 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 2: All that stuff is great, but I don't know if 199 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 2: that's like the fun vote. 200 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 4: If I'm a voter, I'm giving Otani all the awards 201 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 4: if the Angels getting the playoffs, I want to give 202 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 4: him everything. 203 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: I agree with the playoff thay. The only problem is 204 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: what has been happening. What happened like right after the 205 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: trade headline passed, like Otani had the thing, he had 206 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: to come out of the game. What happened in this 207 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: one had a cramp, only went four innings. Little bit 208 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: worried about what the back half of this year is. 209 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: There's a couple of little crampy things that are going on, 210 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 1: not finishing games. But I agree he actually might be 211 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: the most fun bet because, as you mentioned Sean McClanahan, 212 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: fifteen day il, they did not announce what the diagnosis is. 213 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: This is on his forearm, and I actually broke this 214 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: down earlier in the week. One interesting thing that happened 215 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: pre injury was he was throwing harder. He was starting 216 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: his slider two and a half miles an hour harder. 217 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: In the game where he then came out, you could 218 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 1: maybe say there's some type of speculation there, but then 219 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,079 Speaker 1: he has a form issue. This is the quote I 220 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: didn't like. Club statement was quote. In the process of 221 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: gathering further information and updates will be provided of will 222 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 1: be provided when available that just seemed very like robotic, 223 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 1: you know, very like we do not raise it doesn't 224 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: It just doesn't feel good. I don't feel like they're 225 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: not There's nobody being like, hey, you know, McClanahan had 226 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: a thing, we'll get out of it will be good. 227 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: It's like, we really don't know. We have to check 228 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 1: this sole situation out. And this is very reminiscent of 229 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 1: Rasmusen and Springs and the whole process that happens. So 230 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: I am very very worried about it. 231 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 2: You should be. 232 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,599 Speaker 4: If you have McClanahan still in leagues where you know 233 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 4: he is your ace, you should be terrified right now. 234 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 4: I think the Razor are terrified. It's funny because the 235 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 4: Razor's still at the top of the betting board right now. 236 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 4: Look at a FanDuel. They're still plus three twenty to 237 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 4: represent the American League. Yet they are not the team 238 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 4: that is slated to win the divisi The Orioles are 239 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 4: the minus one hundred favorites now. Whine is one ten 240 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 4: right now. So yeah, kinda kind of cuckoo, kind of 241 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 4: crazy there. And look right now, you've got the Rangers, 242 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 4: the Astros, the Orioles kind of after them, the Astros 243 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 4: are plus three fifty. I'm looking at the Astros, you 244 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 4: know that. Yeah, a couple of weeks ago that number 245 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 4: was plus eight fifty. I told everybody before they make 246 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 4: moves bet it. Then after the Verlinder tried it went 247 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 4: down this trade it went down to seven hundred. Now 248 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 4: it's down to plus three fifty. 249 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:29,439 Speaker 2: So I don't know. 250 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 4: At this point, you gotta make the wager on the 251 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 4: Houston side, Like I think, it's just crazy not to. 252 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I like what you talked about too with 253 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: that bet. If you're looking at that bet with Otani 254 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 1: on the the cy Young stuff. With everything that's going on. 255 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: There also more headlines here. Ellie dla Cruz got his 256 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: what was it, eighth homer in a loss, but just 257 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: wanted to point out great on the homer. We did 258 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: this a couple of days ago, Joe. But Ellie's up 259 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 1: and down the season though he is a monster as 260 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 1: far as hard hit stuff goes, actually barreling the ball 261 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: quite a bit better than he was. I believe he 262 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: was down in the fours early on in the year. 263 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: Forty seven percent hard hit thirty three percent K percentage 264 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: so far this year, which is no bueno, but he 265 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,719 Speaker 1: does have an expected batting average that is close to 266 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: the current batting average. Maybe that doesn't make you feel 267 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: good if you're somebody that believes it's going to be 268 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 1: so much better. But also on the strikeout front with 269 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: something Bubba and I were talking about h five strikeouts 270 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: in his last two games, he has multi strikeouts. I 271 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: believe that's five games in his last seven he has 272 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: struck out more than twice as the batting average kind 273 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: of dipped. So we're you and I. You and I 274 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: remember a time when Ellie de la Cruz was you 275 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 1: might pass Corbin Carol and blah blah blah. I think 276 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: this is the Elie de la Cruz people need to really, 277 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: you know, come to transit. Two sixty five hitter, big homer, 278 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: stolen bases. 279 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 4: Stolen base on a kid who's going to get better 280 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 4: over time too. I mean, like, like exactly look in Dynasty. 281 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 4: I'm all over it still because the ceiling is ridiculous 282 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 4: because if we've seen kids with tools sometimes who figure 283 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 4: it out go on to just absolutely crush the league. 284 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 2: I mean you could even point to rond Akunya. 285 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,079 Speaker 4: Early in his career is a kay who had a 286 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 4: lot of tools where you're just kind of looking for 287 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,839 Speaker 4: him to put it all together, and then he did. 288 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 4: And look how terrifying the player he is right now. 289 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 2: And you know that size too. 290 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 4: So the taller guys, the bigger guys Welsh, you know, 291 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 4: they're more susceptible to the strikeouts because they have a 292 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:22,679 Speaker 4: bigger strike zone. At the end of the day, you know, 293 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 4: guys are gonna be able to pitch to them differently 294 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 4: as opposed to the guy who is, you know, five 295 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 4: ten six foot tall, aspose as the guy who's what's 296 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 4: cruise six five? 297 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: Oh, I think they list him at He's like, dude, 298 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: he's like six six sixty seven. 299 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 2: He's huge. He's a big dude. But he's always gonna 300 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 2: have a bigger strike zone. 301 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 4: So therefore you have to always understand that in those 302 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 4: points leagues with the minus for the k's and things 303 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 4: like that. But look, if he ever harnesses everything in 304 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 4: a couple of years, it's gonna be scary. But Dela Cruz, 305 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 4: especially in this new era of the stolen base, this 306 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 4: rebirth of stolen bases, I still want de la Cruz 307 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 4: on all my teams. 308 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: The Yeah, it's it's not not why it just would 309 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: definitely point out nobody did it here. I don't remember, 310 00:12:58,400 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: but I saw it on the internet of like the 311 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: the anger that would happen when anyone would question Ellie 312 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: de la Cruz and people are you know, he's a 313 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: first round or rest of season and people going nuts. 314 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: But like, maybe listen to some of us when we 315 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: do look at that stuff that like you could again 316 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: he had there was a thirty day period where he 317 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 1: was the leader in stolen bases. Power wasn't there. He's 318 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,559 Speaker 1: starting to redevelop into that, but there's a time that 319 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: you were able to maximize him for first round talent 320 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: in this year, and the hype kind of took a 321 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:25,079 Speaker 1: lot of people out. 322 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 4: No, you were right, and you did that video about it, 323 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 4: and you were one hundred percent correct at the time. 324 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,199 Speaker 4: If you can get somebody to overpay and redraft, it 325 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,559 Speaker 4: made sense. But in dynasty keeper formats, there's just out 326 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,839 Speaker 4: of my cold dead hand, are you getting Ellie della Cruz. 327 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: You were talking about the Mets pitchers real quick both well, 328 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: we bought news on both. Max Scherzer went six, gave 329 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: up seven hits, three earned runs, nine strikeouts, in his 330 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: Rangers debut. It seems like a very this era Max 331 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: Scherzer line right there, You're always going to give up runs. 332 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: Now he goes six. That's good for the bullpen, strikes 333 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 1: out a bunch. I don't know if there were any 334 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: thoughts at all on Suresier's debut with the Rangers. 335 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 4: Oh, look, what you said was perfect, But I would 336 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 4: also add that let's see what the next couple are. 337 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 4: Let's see does he harness the inconsistencies or you know, 338 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 4: and gets back to being on track, or does he 339 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 4: have like the oh Max Scherzer came out because he's got, 340 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 4: you know, a tweak in his back, or you know, 341 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 4: he rolled his ankle a weird way. Like he's had 342 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 4: a lot of that in the last couple of years, 343 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 4: even that playoff run in the Washington year where they 344 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 4: went won the World Series. Let's not forget he had 345 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 4: a couple of weird injury things. I just think the 346 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 4: body's breaking down a little bit. So you're gonna get 347 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 4: the good starts. I think this is the best of 348 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 4: those starts you get. And I know Verlander you are 349 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 4: gonna get on Saturday against the Yankees, which should be 350 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 4: really good theater. If you love baseball, it's gonna be 351 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 4: hard not to enjoy that. And look, I wish those 352 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 4: guys well. I Verlander was the one that hurt a 353 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 4: little bit more sureser to me. Just look, the intensity 354 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 4: is great, but I feel like guys like that that 355 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 4: are so intense they wear on you after a while. 356 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 2: And I think it kind of wore on everybody. So 357 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 2: good luck to both of them. My money's on Houston, folks. 358 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: There's definitely something in that water, though, because you know 359 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: he is popped back up Dane Dunning struck out eleven. 360 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: There's some type of you there's again, it could just 361 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: be adrenaline. It could be an excitement, it could be seriousness. 362 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: It could be actual pitching changes by Greg Maddox or 363 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: Mike Maddicks. I'm sorry, Mike Maddocks. Greg was also with 364 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: the team for a bit in the spring. But I 365 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: don't know what it is, but it's a positive turn. 366 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: As you mentioned Verlander, rookie. Lookie, someone asked this earlier. 367 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: They said, Welsh, what's up with Brandon Fott. Well, Brandon 368 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: Fott had his best start of his career. He wins 369 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: seven innings, Joe two hits, one walk, seven strikeouts, did 370 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: give up a homer. Here are the cool things. This 371 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: is why, like I know, like, hey, I'm the Brandon 372 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: Fought guy. Hey, you were wrong, but it's very excited. 373 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: When we heard that Brett Strom made him move across 374 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: the rubber. That's a big change. So he's now on 375 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: the first base side of the rubber and we've seen 376 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: the results kind of work themselves out decently. Well, guess 377 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: what this start he threw his predominant pitch as a sweeper. 378 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: There was a time this year where he was like 379 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: seventy percent fastball, thirty nine percent sweeper, thirty one percent 380 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: fastball in twenty three percent. Changeup was his pitch mix 381 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: in this start thirty three percent overall swing and wiff 382 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: rate thirty seven percent CSW. And what was so encouraging 383 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: to me was he had big outside the zone swing 384 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 1: in whiffs outside of them. People were actually trying to 385 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: swing at these pitches that were not in the zone. 386 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: Sixty percent on the sweeper over twenty percent on the fastball. 387 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: Brandon Fought might be figuring it out. And it's a 388 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: great bilo in Dynasty Joe. 389 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. 390 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 4: I think it was here with us together, where we 391 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 4: had that equation of here remind us of another you know, 392 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 4: old Arizona diamonbacks pitchure named Robby Ray. Where you're gonna 393 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 4: you know, there's gonna be a lot of growing pains here. 394 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 4: The strikeout potential is very good. You know, that's something 395 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 4: you want to look forward to and hope that it 396 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 4: goes well. And then you know, I always thought that 397 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 4: if they just decided to make him a closer, he 398 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 4: could be very good in that role because the effectively 399 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 4: wild portion of him really plays well into the closer 400 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 4: role because guys are going up there in the ninth inning, 401 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 4: they're trying to just make contact their down three runs, 402 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 4: they want to go home like. 403 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 2: They're not looking to, you know, break the wheel. 404 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 4: But to Arizona, he's more valuable as a starting pitcher 405 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 4: right now, so hopefully he can look if he can 406 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 4: give you anything close to five good innings over the 407 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 4: next what eight weeks of the seven weeks of the season, 408 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 4: whatever's left here. That's huge for Arizona because they can't 409 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 4: exactly make the biggest splashes either, I think of this deadline. 410 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 2: But they did get Paul c Wald nailed it. 411 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're ever going to use him, they're ever going 412 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: to be in a position to use them. That'd be well, 413 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:40,719 Speaker 1: you got to be in a position to use him. 414 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: But yeah, but you see Donnie. Donnie was saying, I 415 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,120 Speaker 1: nailed that. Did you? Did you see that tweet where 416 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,719 Speaker 1: I just butchered an analogy on prospect one? I did 417 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: a prospect show. I don't. I think I was like, 418 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: what did I say? 419 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 2: It was something about cookie cutters. 420 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was some ridiculous I don't. 421 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 2: I'll find it. You talk somewhere ver come out of 422 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 2: my mouth. Well, that's that's the beauty. That's the beauty 423 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 2: of the Welsh ism. Is it just kind of happens. 424 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: You know, it's natural, it's not forced. It's not a 425 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 1: force thing. 426 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 4: So no, never force, always always always good, always entertaining 427 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 4: and always original. 428 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:17,159 Speaker 2: That's that's right. 429 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: The other rookie, look, he Southreelick two for three five RBI, 430 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: already hit his second homer. So I'm sitting here questioning 431 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: where the accounting stats are going to come from, and 432 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,399 Speaker 1: he's doing it. So he's pushing himself more into that 433 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: five outfielder pickup range. If he does seem to be 434 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: floating out there. That's also the thing with Brandon fo 435 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 1: Brandon fat might just be like floating in the ethers 436 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: because people don't trust him. This would be a good 437 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: time to jump on that, Joe. I got a bunch 438 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: of injuries and I'm gonna plow through them. 439 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 2: Obvious. 440 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 1: See if there are any takes. We got Max Freed, 441 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 1: who's being activated from the sixty day IL seeing a 442 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: couple people. I want to say it was Angelo and 443 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,479 Speaker 1: a few others maybe concerned. Nick was saying right here 444 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: about how Fred has already been up to eighty pitches 445 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 1: in his rehabit of people saying, are we concerned about 446 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: him starting today? You can be. And I think the 447 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: operating procedure should always be like, maybe don't start starters 448 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,720 Speaker 1: coming off of injury. But I'm okay with this one 449 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 1: against the Cubs. I'm actually going to put them out there. 450 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I am too. 451 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: It could hurt Ratios big, there's always that potential, but 452 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: I think you can get on this Cubs offense. And 453 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: I also think they're going to beat up on Kyle Hendrick. 454 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 1: So if you're chasing a win, that's a spot I've founded. 455 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 4: By the way, it's let's not cookie cut it, which 456 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 4: should be let's sugar sugar coat it, and you made 457 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 4: you made it into a sugar cookie. 458 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 2: Let's not cut it. 459 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 1: Sugar cookies are great too, by the way. Yeah, I 460 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: think the guy was like, we should put that on 461 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 1: a shirt, so let's not cookie cookie cut it. 462 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 4: You said let's not cookie cut it as opposed to 463 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 4: let's not sugarcoat it, So you must have thought sugar cookies. 464 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 4: I hope your mouth, your mouth and your brain just 465 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 4: don't get along sometimes. 466 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 2: I hope. 467 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: I hope this is the only version of Alzheimer's I 468 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: ever have, Like, let this be the version. 469 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 2: Please. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, you know, this 470 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 2: is where we're starting. God knows the fun things that 471 00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 2: might command. 472 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: I hope not. Dodgers manager tell reporters at Walker Bueller 473 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 1: is on the verge of starting a minor league rehab assignment. 474 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 1: They said that he's going to be throwing today and 475 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: this will be over at campbl Back Branch because I 476 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: can tell you I've seen him twice on Saturdays over 477 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: at campbel Back Ranch, so he is getting back. They 478 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: are saying they might expect him back in September. I 479 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: imagine it would be in a very low leverage situation 480 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 1: a couple innings, maybe an opener or something like that. 481 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: But he's working his way back, so keep an eye 482 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: on that. Max Munsey was removed from Thursday's game against 483 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 1: A's with a left wrist contusion. Twins placed Joe Ryan 484 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: on the fifteen day il with left groin with a 485 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 1: left groin strain. No no bueno at all. He his 486 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,200 Speaker 1: splitter was really ineffective and he didn't really tell anybody, 487 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: So that's not good. So this is part of that 488 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: reason because people are like, what the hell's going on? 489 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 1: Is he broken? We also had Anthony Rizzo who had 490 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 1: some concussion like symptoms which have been like two they 491 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 1: I think they put it back like two months ago 492 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: when Fernalo Tatis Junior ran into him. Okay, Joe Musgrove 493 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: was scratched on Wednesday with a minor right shoulder strain woodruff. 494 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 1: He's gonna be back on Sunday in Nesterra Cortes is 495 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,120 Speaker 1: back on Saturday. Anti Rostrata is expected back this weekend. 496 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: I added a new little segment that I'm gonna throw 497 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: to you guys, and we'll do it really quick. It's 498 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 1: weekend streamers that we can do on Friday, Jo, I'm 499 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 1: gonna throw out four names. You tell me if there's 500 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: someone you dig. I'll also mention if you guys are 501 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 1: looking for players to kind of hone in on this weekend. 502 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: Bryce Elder versus the Cubs gotten eate into record, Treek 503 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: Schooble going up against Tampa Bay, You've got Chris Sanchez 504 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: going up against Kansas City, and Steven Matts against Colorado. 505 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 1: Elder and School are a little bit more owned, but 506 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: from the way I've been hearing a lot of people talk, 507 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: they're still out there. Sanchez and Matt's a lot more accessible. Elder, Chicago, Schooble, 508 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, Sanchez, Kansas City, Matt's Colorado. Anything you like there? 509 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, School, because I think the Rays are vulnerable right now, 510 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 4: so why not take advantage of them when they're down 511 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 4: in School's been very solid, So that's. 512 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 2: Whey I'd go. 513 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: I like the Sanchez one just because I think he's 514 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: really available in Kansas City kind of stinks. Schooble is 515 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: an absolute no brainer to me. Thanks, Steven. That's actually 516 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: might be kind of sneaky. He's been good as of 517 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 1: recent He has at Colorado. This is not this is 518 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: not at Colorado. 519 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 2: That's right, like Colorado in Saint Louis so exactly, So 520 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 2: I like that. 521 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: And then Sunday I only put up two. Taylan Walker's 522 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 1: going up against Kansas City, and you've got Andrew Heeney 523 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: who's going up against Miami, who just said that eleven 524 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 1: strikeout performance. Both excessively owned in places. If you had 525 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 1: to start one Walker or Heeny, where are you going? 526 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 4: Uh see Walker Heeney? I would probably go with Walker 527 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 4: against Casey such at it. Yeah, I'm just gonna play 528 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 4: match up there, I hope for the best. I thought 529 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 4: Trey Turner was dropped to the eighth spot the other 530 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 4: day though. How about them apples yia. 531 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 1: Y, Yeah exactly. Now nobody there Three up, three down. 532 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: Jack Flaherty six innings, eight strikeouts, only four hits, two 533 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 1: walks in his Baltimore debut. There's your three up, one 534 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 1: of your ups. Bobby wait Junior went three for four 535 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,360 Speaker 1: with a homer stolen based two runs, two RBI got 536 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: he has been awesome. My final of the trade videos 537 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: telling you to go get him and Ryan mount Castle 538 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: shout out to Mike Mayer four for four on the downs. 539 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: I think I skipped him before as we were kind 540 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 1: of rolling through. But you know, is Mitch Keller broken 541 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: five innings, eight earned runs, three walks, and now three 542 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 1: of his last four starts he has given up six 543 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 1: or more earned runs. Someone asks, do you drop Mitch 544 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: Keller right now? He's goppen. 545 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:23,399 Speaker 2: Oh. 546 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 4: He had I think three thirty one era in the 547 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 4: first half of the year nine and four. Three thirty 548 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 4: one was first nineteen starts. Over his last four starts, 549 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 4: he has a nine point nine to seven e RA. 550 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 4: I mean, that's just it's unbelievable. And look, and we 551 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 4: know where that era was too, and he had some 552 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 4: clunker starts kind of leading up into the break also. 553 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 4: But I don't know if it's broken. I don't know 554 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 4: if he you know, if it's mental. He's still young, 555 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 4: he's still just twenty seven years old. So I think 556 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 4: in those keeper dives he leagues he's a fascinating by 557 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 4: low on the on the dip right now with Pittman 558 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 4: being bad, but I mean, right now, rest of the season, 559 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 4: you can't have any confidence in him. 560 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 1: So yeah, and this last start you had ve Lo down. 561 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: I was just looking at that. I mean just kind 562 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: of across the board almost a full mile per hour 563 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: down on the fastball. On the sinker sweeper was down. Uh, 564 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: he was two miles an hour down on the cutter. 565 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 1: It seems like there's something wrong. And I think that's 566 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: kind of like the big good. He does have a 567 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: better expected era, So I would throw that out to you. 568 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if I would like cut him. I 569 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 1: try to put him on the bench unless you've got 570 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 1: like way better cooler options, and if you do, you know, 571 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: good on you. I might go there. The others on 572 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 1: the down. As I get back to this, we had 573 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 1: Anthony Santander who went zero for five with four strikeouts, 574 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: and Carlos Carrasco gave up six. He struck out six 575 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: or no, I'm sorry, he gave up six, went six 576 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: and struck out zero zero in six. No bueno, Joe. 577 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: We don't likeever, how do you I don't understand the 578 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: zero strikeouts through six things. Sometimes that is affine to me. 579 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: How how do you do that? 580 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 2: Carlos Carrasco has done a lot of things that I 581 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 2: have no reasons for. The Mets. 582 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,719 Speaker 4: The Mets have to and the thing is they got 583 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 4: all these great young position player wou is great, but 584 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 4: they have to go out and make some pitching commitments 585 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 4: that are going to be better suited that guys aren't 586 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 4: in their late thirties or early forties. 587 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 2: And look, SEINGA is going to be in that rotation 588 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 2: next year. I imagine kntm's going to be in that 589 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 2: rotation next year. After that, we wash. 590 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't think you have any clarity about anybody. 591 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 4: So they have a lot of work to do. And 592 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 4: don't be surprised by use some of. 593 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 2: That prospect capital to get that done either, because I 594 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 2: think they will very true. 595 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 1: Hey friends, price Picks, let's check it out.

So you 624 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: asked about Max Fried earlier. I will back them with 625 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: Houston and Hunter Brown going up against Louis Severino who 626 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 1: is broken and last night. I think it's a little 627 00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 1: bit different odds now, but plus one seventy. It's somewhere 628 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 1: in that general vicinity you'll get for both of those 629 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: money lines. And I even had a third one too. 630 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 1: There's a couple other teams that I kind of dig today. 631 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: I'll put that over on. I'll play some moneyline bets 632 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: on the betting Pros group if you guys want to 633 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 1: go and check that out and you'll be notified of 634 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 1: all the stuff. And I don't think the Diamondbacks can 635 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 1: keep losing, so it's plus money for them on the 636 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: money line with Merle going today, So I'm taking the 637 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: plus one to ten for Merril Kelly on the straight 638 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,400 Speaker 1: up money line for the Diamondbacks. Joe, I feel weird 639 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 1: about doing the dfs. Do you want to read off 640 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 1: the dfs? Do you want me to read it off? 641 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,880 Speaker 2: Well, but it was Bubba's work. It was Bubba's work. 642 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 2: I mean, why don't you read it off there? Because 643 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:35,439 Speaker 2: I should pretend to. 644 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 1: Be Bubba Brump. You should pretend to. 645 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,640 Speaker 2: Be bu you know, Bubba. Bubba's just just just chill 646 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 2: and I can never just do that. 647 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 4: But look, basically Bubba has Castillo, who well S already 648 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 4: talked about, no run first inning at ten point two. 649 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,679 Speaker 4: James Paxon at nine K against Toronto. Again, that's more 650 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 4: of a tournament play. And then Dean Kremer against the 651 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 4: Mets absolutely seven point two. That is your real tournament 652 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:57,680 Speaker 4: play because then you can go up and get olds, 653 00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 4: and you can go up and get braves and get 654 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 4: up again whatever you want. He's Stack in Milwaukee against Preacher, 655 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 4: which is really smart too because the Milwaukee Bats are cheap. 656 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 4: Boston versus Manoa for obvious reasons, because he's Alec Manoa, 657 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 4: He's a human gas can. And then Houston against Averno. 658 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 4: The Yankee pitching obviously is just outside of call.
