12
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: us out. Welsh, what a crazy night of baseball it was.

13
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 1: You had five walkoff hits for two homer games, three

14
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: walkoff homers, two Grand slams, and a partridge in a

15
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: pear tree. Not bad, not bad, Molb Bruno.

16
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 2: It was a fantastic fantastic.

17
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 1: I just noticed it. I didn't even notice.

18
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 2: Another fun one. Another one, fun one, Bruno, is that

19
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 2: that was Tatis's first career walkoff. Last night too, we

20
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 2: had walkoffs across the board. We had rookie stepping up.

21
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 2: It was a true true site for baseball. Mister brunopiez Apia, Yeah, hey,

22
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:14,960
Speaker 2: my dad.

23
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: Would be very happy. Right now, Let's talk about another

24
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 1: thing that made me very happy, which is the Athletics

25
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: performance yesterday, because not only did they beat the Dodgers,

26
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: which is always fun, but Nick Kurtz got his first

27
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: big league home run. I'm so excited. They dropped him

28
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 1: the ninth in the order and he looked so happy. Welsh,

29
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw the facial expressions of

30
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,320
Speaker 1: Nick Kurtz after the home run. He looked like a

31
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 1: weight had just been completely lifted off of him. He

32
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: looked like a kid who is out of school for

33
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: the summer. He was so happy, and I hope this

34
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: leads him towards just relaxing and playing ball and not

35
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: pressing too much. Jacob Wilson another big night for him

36
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: with the Athletics four for five. I want to talk

37
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: about this player too, because he's such a strange anomaly

38
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: statistically when you're looking at him what we are used

39
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: to seeing now nowadays in terms of offensive players. He

40
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: was on base all five times, even reached on an error. Yesterday.

41
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: So even though he was four for five, who's still

42
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: on base five times. His slash right now is three

43
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 1: sixty three, three eighty nine, five twelve. He has five

44
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: fifty eight hits and just forty one hard hit balls.

45
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: What do you think of that, like in just terms

46
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 1: of like the statistic profile of a guy who doesn't walk,

47
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: rarely strikes out and just makes so much contact. A

48
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 1: llah arise, but you know, kind of a different version,

49
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 1: I guess now two point zero.

50
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to touch on Nick Kurts in a second,

51
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 2: but I completely agree. He has this really fun, great anomaly,

52
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 2: makes just so much contact. He's got the profile of

53
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 2: you know, the Luis a Ris type of guys, Like

54
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 2: they don't barrel the ball a lot, they don't hit

55
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 2: the ball hard, he doesn't strike out. He's like a

56
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 2: classic incredible Points League player. I think the ballpark definitely

57
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 2: is something we've got to take a look at. I

58
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 2: mean you can see just in the visual hit spray

59
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,919
Speaker 2: chart on Savant. You know they don't look like they're

60
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 2: no doubters. But also they have an expected home run

61
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 2: metric on there, and his expected home runs are two less.

62
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 2: So he's at two point nine where he's got five.

63
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 2: So you know, even the projections are saying like, yeah,

64
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 2: three of those five homers were doubted homers. They wouldn't

65
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 2: have gone in every other place. So you know, I

66
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: think he's taking advantage of specific ballparks. I mean in

67
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 2: the Dodgers in that corner that really works well. He's pulling,

68
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 2: but he makes But this is the thing the end

69
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 2: of the day, this is the thing that makes a

70
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 2: player like this or any of these guys that have

71
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 2: these like ninety two. He has a ninety three point

72
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 2: three zone contact percentage. When they make that type of contact,

73
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 2: you're just like, just get quality of contact. Figure out

74
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 2: how to make quality of contact with it, because good

75
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 2: things can happen, and good things are happening with Jacob Wilson,

76
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 2: and also they're happening with Nick Kurtz. You know, it

77
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: was a little crazy pilled for me when it wasn't

78
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 2: just you, but it was like the chat would be

79
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 2: like or neck Kertch. We did this for like a

80
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 2: week and it was like, guys, it's a young player.

81
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 2: But also he was hitting for average this entire time.

82
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 2: That's what I kept screaming to everybody. He's still hitting

83
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 2: two seventy even though he's striking out like crazy, showing

84
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 2: decent metrics, something's going to break here soon. And guess

85
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 2: what it is. Now? No one's talking about why is

86
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 2: Nick Kurtz struggling? Because he's hitting two eighty, He's got

87
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 2: great barrel, great hard hit, he's walking, he's getting the

88
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 2: ball in the air. Guess what he's expected batting average

89
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 2: two sixty three. The only negative right now are those strikeouts,

90
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 2: and he's starting to find some rhythm. So all that panic,

91
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 2: hopefully everybody chilled out a little bit with Nick Kurtz

92
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 2: because it's starting to click a little bit and you

93
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 2: got a really beneficial home ballpark. But what a nine

94
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 2: to one. By the way, Kurts at nine and Jacob

95
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 2: Wilson at one. What a weird setup that A's team

96
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 2: gets to do.

97
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: Joey, it is uh And I'll tell you what. Look,

98
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: I had to start Kurtz this week in my home league,

99
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: and I was just closing my eyes and say, okay,

100
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: it's got to turn on some point. We were talking

101
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: about how to off the schedule is going to be

102
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: ahead of him with the Dodgers and the Phillies and

103
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 1: some of these other teams, and we said, you know,

104
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: this doesn't look great, but that's baseball, right, Like, all

105
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 1: of a sudden, he's gonna get hot against the better team. Memes,

106
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 1: that's certainly possible and also anomaly and strange. Jeffrey Springs

107
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: was the guy who stick stuck to the Dodger yesterday.

108
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,279
Speaker 2: And he was in there, so weird the TVDS versus

109
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 2: where he was. He was always there in that lineup

110
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 2: we were dealing with.

111
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, it was weird because you were saying he

112
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: was going to start night He was like, it feels

113
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: like it his but they didn't announce it all. Yeah,

114
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 1: I was super well be it wasn't on fan at

115
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: the time of recording the show. Anyway, I thought Padres

116
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: had a big night away, so oh, I think we

117
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: all thought he was going to get obliterated. He did not,

118
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: And that's baseball. Padres. Dylan sees ten strikeouts for him.

119
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 1: I know last game he had nine. He left with

120
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: a cramp of the forearm all as well. There two runs,

121
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: six and two thirds. The window to buy him is close.

122
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: We tried to tell you two weeks ago, so hopefully listened,

123
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 1: and he tried to buy him Fernando Tattis Junior, as

124
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 1: you mentioned, first career walk off homer, and it was

125
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: a big one too off Kenley Jansen. It was monstrous.

126
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 1: Speaking of monsters, Avier Bias continues to be one. He

127
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: had a pair of three run home runs yesterday. His

128
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:58,160
Speaker 1: slashes three nineteen, three, fifty seven, five thirteen. He's got

129
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 1: five homers, twenty seven rebees. We go into at length.

130
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: I don't spend too much time because we talked about

131
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 1: him at length yesterday in the trade video. If you

132
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: miss that, go watch it on demand on our YouTube channel,

133
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 1: Fantasy Pros MLB. But this is your moment. This is

134
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 1: your moment where now it's getting to a point where

135
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: somebody might overpay, you know, for Bias more than he's

136
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: worth the rest of season. I'm not saying you're gonna

137
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: get your Nalvarez back from him, but you know, if

138
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,919
Speaker 1: you're looking at outfielders, would you rather have Brian Reynolds

139
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: rest of season than what he's done consistently of the

140
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 1: last couple of years. Who was anither over five last night?

141
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: Or would you rather have Hobby or Bias Welsh oh Renn.

142
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 2: I mean, it's not even a question how.

143
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: Quick you answer that, but I guarantee that's a trade

144
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 1: you could make right now. I don't mich again after

145
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 1: last night two three run home runs. Man, people, there's

146
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: somebody you'll love to be prisoners of the moment.

147
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 2: I don't think that's an over fifty percenter still doing that.

148
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 2: My thing when you said that was like, I'm not

149
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 2: sure if someone is an overpay, but I think people

150
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 2: might pay now for hobby bias. In the trade video,

151
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 2: As talked about the one thing that is very interesting

152
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 2: when you're talking about process in change equaling results, Hobby

153
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 2: Bidas does have that and that's something I'm looking for

154
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 2: for a lot of players, and that there are some

155
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 2: dramatic swing changes in how he's gotten closed and it's

156
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 2: very similar, by the way to the Corbyn Carroll thing,

157
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 2: where he's closed off his stance, he's gotten closer to

158
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 2: the plate. That's the same thing that Corbyn Carroll's done.

159
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 2: And he's having some really great results and we're seeing that.

160
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 2: But all of that to be said, like I don't

161
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 2: trust it. A profile still looks messy. There's over seventy

162
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 2: points differential and his expected batting average on the low side.

163
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 2: But maybe he's turned from an absolutely unroosterble player to

164
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 2: a serviceable player. But if someone is paying him for

165
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 2: an everyday startable player, that's where you want to sell.

166
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's a lot of good bilos. We mentioned

167
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 1: a bunch of them. Go check him out on the

168
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: YouTube channel. Also yesterday Elie de la Cruz scary moment

169
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: there when he collided with TJ Friedel Well, that looked

170
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: like it was going to be bad. It was bad

171
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: for Freidile He ended up coming out, but I think

172
00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: a lot of us were just worried about everybody there.

173
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: To show you Elie de la Cruz, who we haven't

174
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: talked about, I feel like a lot on the show,

175
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: You're right right, you know. Just that's why I wanted

176
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 1: to put him in today because we really haven't had

177
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: a lot of Ellie moments. We've had a couple of

178
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: Ellie betts here and there and some things like that.

179
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 1: But the slash right now is two fifty three twenty four,

180
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: four oh five. Not great with the slugging right. I

181
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: don't love that he's got seven homers, thirty RBI, fourteen

182
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 1: stolen bases, so cometic stats are kind of there. But

183
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: he hasn't had one of those hot Ellie runs really

184
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: where he just plays out of his mind. So I'll

185
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 1: put this to you, is this an intriguing by low

186
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 1: opportunity on Ellie de la Cruz because he it, we

187
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: know he's dreaky, we know he's going to have those

188
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 1: moments where he's going to just blow up over a week,

189
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: and he hasn't had one of them yet and we're

190
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: six weeks into the season. Don't you feel like it's

191
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: kind of like approaching soon?

192
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, if there's any type of a by low, I'm

193
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 2: all in. Uh, you know, the average is still a

194
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 2: little bit lower. I think from lower from an expectation standpoint.

195
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 2: He's not popping off on the power, he doesn't lead

196
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: the league in stolen bases. I still kind of think

197
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 2: this is, like Legal said, like, I'm not sure anyone's

198
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 2: like selling buying him low, or selling him low. I

199
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 2: think what happens is this is like the guy goes

200
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,839
Speaker 2: from an untouchable asset to like, oh, maybe someone's listening now,

201
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 2: and you're still having to pay a cost, which would

202
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 2: be a top five overall player, which is a lot.

203
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 2: But I agree, like I think Ellie is still in

204
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 2: line to pop up. If if I could find a

205
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,440
Speaker 2: book that would let me do stolen base leaders for

206
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 2: the rest of the season like they do homers, I

207
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: would still bet Ellie. There's a couple things in like that.

208
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 2: His expected batting average is a bit lower that I'm monitoring.

209
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 2: He's a lot worse against off speed pitches this year,

210
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 2: but he's making more zone contact. I still think he's

211
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 2: a monster. And the thing he's missing there, look, there's

212
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 2: like a clear thing. He's not getting the ball in

213
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 2: the air. It's a four degree launch angle this year,

214
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 2: so he is struggling in the way because he's barreling more.

215
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 2: So he's barreling more, but he's getting the ball less

216
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 2: in the air. That equates to that stat launch angle

217
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 2: sweet spot. So hitting the ball in a way that

218
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 2: you can get the ball in the air, he hasn't

219
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 2: found that yet. When he does, Ball's gonna fly. Would

220
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 2: I would definitely buy Ellie in opportunities and lie said

221
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 2: Julio or Ellie Ellie hands down for me. In the

222
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 2: trade market, that would be one I would love. If

223
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 2: it's like, oh, I'm trading Julio a little bit on

224
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 2: the low and maybe he'll bounce back versus Ellie. I

225
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 2: would buy Ellie ten out of ten times.

226
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: Shane Boss three runs, four and two third. We've been

227
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: watching him very closely these last few weeks because the

228
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 1: results haven't been great. The E rays above five now,

229
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: but the x FIP is three eight four. So is

230
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: there a circumstance here? Where are buying Boz? And if

231
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: this trend continues, are we concerned that maybe an Ian

232
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 1: Seymour might get a look at some point sooner than later.

233
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know the Ian Seymour thing. I mean, like,

234
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: I think he leads the miners in strikeouts right now.

235
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 2: Like he's just a beast. How you phrase that? I

236
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 2: don't think it will be at the expense of Shane Boss,

237
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 2: like when he gets the opportunity, I don't think it'll

238
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 2: be at that expense. But Boz has been cursed.

239
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: The guys with five vrrays don't stick in rotations too

240
00:10:58,679 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 1: long now.

241
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 2: But that's a fair point. But I just don't think

242
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 2: it would be at his expense. But he has been

243
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 2: cursed ever since that person questioned me on the Dynasty ranks.

244
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,439
Speaker 2: It is like that moment, Shane Boz has just been

245
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 2: brutal I love him as a buy in Dynasty right now.

246
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 2: I think it's a it's a it's an okay buy

247
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 2: in in Redraft versus Dynasty. I mean, you're still seeing

248
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 2: some of the struggles, but he's got up three and

249
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 2: a half expected era. He's giving up just way too

250
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 2: much contact. There's a little probably bit of a pitch

251
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 2: mix change that he's going to work through because he's

252
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,079
Speaker 2: still throwing like way more curveballs than he's kind of

253
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 2: scrapped his slider. Maybe we see a readjustment there. But yeah,

254
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 2: if if he's on the low, I think I would

255
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 2: probably buy in Redraft. Definitely buy in Dynasty, but I

256
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 2: have to temper my expectations because people were thinking that,

257
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 2: you know, Boz was the top twenty sp rest of season,

258
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 2: and I think you don't want to you don't want

259
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 2: to pay a cost that's.

260
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 1: Like that, all right? Uh. Devin Williams Pitch Day perfect tenth.

261
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: That's good news for anybody who's waiting on him to

262
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 1: come back and be the Devin Williams of old. And

263
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 1: speaking of you know, guys being the better versions of themselves,

264
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 1: Jack Lder picked up his third victory of the season Tuesday.

265
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: He limited the Rockies. The Rockies just one run, two hits,

266
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: six innings. He struck out five. But it was the Rockies,

267
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 1: the worst team in baseball and historically one of the

268
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 1: all time worst days in baseball.

269
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,319
Speaker 2: They have active baseball team.

270
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 1: Though, If so, no one's told them, Okay, just.

271
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 2: Checking, just checking. The Jack Lder wins six.

272
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: That's one, so the ticker is now in one. When

273
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: he gets the six starts, I'll call him a good

274
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: major league But you.

275
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 2: Don't need to call him a good major league. What

276
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 2: I think you need to do is you need not

277
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 2: to pooh pooh when he has a good start and

278
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 2: then go here we go when he has a bad start,

279
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 2: and it's like, maybe he's just like a mediocre major

280
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 2: league pitcher, and I think that's it.

281
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe it was the Rockies. So let's not get

282
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: ahead of ours. Let's take some questions here. Jerry wants

283
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: to know about the Pete Rose thing. We'll say that

284
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: for the end of the end of the show, so

285
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 1: if you stick with at the end of the show.

286
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: I don't know Welsh has any thoughts on it. I

287
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: know he hates the Hall of Fame anyway, I have

288
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 1: some thoughts, but you have some thoughts, all right? Is

289
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: Tyler O'Neil droppable from Matt on the mound?

290
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 2: I'd have to pull him up. I'm gonna probably say yes, yeah,

291
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 2: two o eight two homers. He's dealt dealt with injuries.

292
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 2: Presumably there's something decent out there. Let's go with yes.

293
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,679
Speaker 1: Austin Hayes ear Kurtz. It's definitely Kurts for me. Kurtz. Absolutely,

294
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: I've seen Hayes have these little moments before. Let's go

295
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: to do. It's bogger, Joe. I know how you feel

296
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: about Michael Harris, but I just traded Senga and Alvarado

297
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 1: for Michael Harris. Can tell Marte and Iglesias. How do

298
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 1: we feel? I feel great because you got can Tell Marte.

299
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 2: Trade Senga and Alvarado and got Harris, Marte and Iglesias. Yeah,

300
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 2: I mean Senga's been good, but getting Marte.

301
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: And look Senga is also a guy who's era is

302
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 1: not gonna hold where it is right now. The expected

303
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: the ra is gonna gonna bring it back around for sure.

304
00:13:58,000 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 1: I know we have somebody who paid with points. I

305
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: want to them with Stony Lee's I says Stony Stony

306
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: sports question. There you go, Stony, What do I do

307
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: with Brenton Doyle twelve team rodo? My outfield is Meryl

308
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 1: new bar Springer. I also have Cruise on my bench.

309
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: I'm holding on to for dear life. Also have Josh

310
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: Lowe coming off the il. So what do you want

311
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:17,079
Speaker 1: to do here with Doyle?

312
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 2: Ooh man. He was one of the lowest in the

313
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 2: preseason on Brenton Doyle.

314
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: You were you were, and he got off to a

315
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: decent start to he did your call. The first two

316
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: weeks you were like, eh, bite the nails a little bit.

317
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 2: I had a couple of those though. It was like

318
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 2: Matt McClain and Brenton Doyle. I was like lower than

319
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 2: anybody on and then they came out the gates and

320
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 2: I was like, all right, here we go and then

321
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 2: they have come back down to earth. Doyle still got

322
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 2: some profile stuff that looks solid. You'd probably be surprised at,

323
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 2: you know, his struggles that he's striking out less than

324
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 2: he was last year. Hard hit barrels are better than

325
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 2: they were last year, but he's hitting just two fifteen.

326
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 2: You got a great ballpark. He's underperforming as far as

327
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 2: like babbit goes that. You know, if you're in a

328
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 2: short league, ten team league, I think you can probably move.

329
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 2: I think it might be advantageous to hold for a

330
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 2: little bit, because yeah, there's some stuff I keep looking here.

331
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 2: I mean, zone contact percentage is better, barrel is better,

332
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 2: hard hit is better. He's improved on strikeouts, like all

333
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 2: those things are going. He's getting a little bit unlucky

334
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 2: as far as the Babbitt goes. And he's got a

335
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 2: great home ballpark, he's got some loud tools, So I

336
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 2: think if you can hold, probably hold on him. But

337
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 2: if there's somebody super fun that's out there, you know what,

338
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 2: Chandler Simpson, I would make that move.

339
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: Here's an interesting one from le may Noevee Marte or

340
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: Royce Lewis rest of season. I mean I would lean

341
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: towards Royce Lewis here because I've seen the high points

342
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 1: for longer periods of time than Marte. But it wouldn't

343
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: shock me if Marte was the right answer at the

344
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: end of the day, which I know is not great,

345
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 1: but I think you have to you have to try

346
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: with Royce Lewis. I think at this point, I think

347
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 1: he's just further along in terms of, like of the

348
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: credibility factor. I think that's where I would put it.

349
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, that actually is a tougher one than I thought

350
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 2: it would be, because it's very tough, like Marte got hurt.

351
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 2: What he was doing before he got hurt, look like,

352
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 2: you know, he wasn't striking out anymore, and you know

353
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 2: he's stealing bas is hitting some homers like that actually

354
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 2: looks pretty encouraging. Royce Lewis is doing absolutely nothing since

355
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 2: he's got back. I think he just locked in his

356
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 2: first hits since being backed, so he was oh for

357
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 2: you know, in the first five games of the season.

358
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 2: But I think Royce has got some loud tools. I'm

359
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 2: gonna lean on Royce as well because Marte's hurt and

360
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 2: we got to see what happens. But you know, in

361
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 2: a month from now will be hurt in Marte's back.

362
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 2: It is way closer than when.

363
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: An hour for now, an hour from now, I know,

364
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: it's much closer. I think that's why I said I

365
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: think this is a great question because I think both

366
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 1: have value and both have risk. But to me, Lewis

367
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 1: just has had a little bit more of a track

368
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: record at the major league level that I might I

369
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: want to give that guy.

370
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 2: Don't you think Royce is, by the way, one of

371
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 2: those guys like, you know, the silly injuries we hear

372
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,479
Speaker 2: in baseball where it's like, you know, he he slipped.

373
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: On soap and oh yeah, he fell into a cure

374
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: bath yelled his name, and he turned around and slipped down.

375
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 2: And he fell and then he got hurt for a

376
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 2: couple of days.

377
00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: Sorry. Yeah, oh geez, that was back. He is from league.

378
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 1: Great stat Joe's gonna love this only twice. I wonder

379
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: if Bruno will like it only twice. In MLB history

380
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 1: has a starting pitcher pitched two and a third innings,

381
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 1: twelve base runners and eleven hits are all out and

382
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 1: both were town or how this season? Eh, where's Mike

383
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 1: Mayer nowhere? Where's he about his about his Boston Red Sox?

384
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 1: Speaking of the Red Sox, rookie, lookie Marcelo Mayor two

385
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 1: for four with a three run homer. I mean, he's

386
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 1: becoming undeniable right now. He's sitting on my bench in

387
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 1: a league too. I'm just waiting. I'm waiting for that

388
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: call and public Chandler eight eight k's five scoreless for

389
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 1: Triple A Indianapolis. So I want to put the bubble

390
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 1: watch back on.

391
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 2: It's always on, it's next next start. What do we

392
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 2: We are okay, so here's a good thing to do.

393
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 2: We are past the line whatever we create that line

394
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 2: to be. There's a line where it's like I can

395
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 2: justifiably or anybody could justifiably say. And that was the

396
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 2: whole season where it was like, all right, you gotta

397
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 2: build up, you gotta do this. Da da da da dad.

398
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 2: And then you start to get really close and we're like, okay,

399
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 2: it could be in the next week or two. Then

400
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,360
Speaker 2: you pass the line where it's like this doesn't make

401
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 2: sense anymore. It should be any day. That's where Bubba

402
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 2: Chandler's at. But junior Cameron Naro was at that last

403
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,880
Speaker 2: year where we were just like, what are we doing?

404
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 2: Why is he down until August or whatever he was?

405
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 2: We're past the line that makes any like justifiable sense.

406
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 2: With Bubba Chandler, he had a great he bounced back

407
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 2: from a poor start, bunch of strikeouts. We should be there. So,

408
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 2: like I will every time you ask me, I will say,

409
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 2: the next start is when he should be up in

410
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 2: the majors and should be the call. And I still

411
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,479
Speaker 2: hold too, Like if you've been holding onto him, I

412
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 2: still think he kind of should because you drop him now.

413
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 2: Have you been holding on to him for six weeks

414
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 2: and you drop him now and then.

415
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: Oh no, he can't some slack.

416
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 2: He's gonna pick him up off the waivers because you

417
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 2: dropped him. When he gets called in two days, you're gonna.

418
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: Hate yourself now. Anonymous Kurts or Ronda in a keeper

419
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: Ltz Kurts, it's not even in the same keeper league.

420
00:18:58,760 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely Kurts.

421
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,199
Speaker 1: Here's when Aronda Kurtz. I think they mean Augustin for

422
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 1: you utility position. I would go with Kurts too, especially

423
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: after yesterday.

424
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 2: That's what I'd be looking at. Ronda's pretty incredible so

425
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:15,360
Speaker 2: far this year. I think I might lean Ronda in redraft.

426
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 2: But I will say this, the keeper sig even close.

427
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 2: If Kurtz like carries this over, Kurts is going to

428
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 2: be on this line. But like you would kill for

429
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,639
Speaker 2: the profile that Ronda has for Nick Kurtz, So I

430
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 2: guess I'll lean Ronda on that.

431
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 1: All right. Lucero's I have Grayson Rodriguez and mcclannon on

432
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 1: my IL my first league. But with the injury news,

433
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: are they worth stashing? They're getting harder and harder to

434
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,399
Speaker 1: keep if you're getting squeezed at the IL spots. But

435
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 1: I mean you got to try to keep both of

436
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 1: them or trade one of them. And yeah, I think

437
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,199
Speaker 1: the way I'm looking at both of those players right

438
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: now is if someone's going to take give you a

439
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 1: useful piece, you know, a David Peterson back of the

440
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,880
Speaker 1: rotation kind of starter that you can pick your year

441
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: moments with and who's actually going to play in the

442
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 1: next six to eight week, I think I'll take that piece.

443
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: I'll take Griffin Canning for one of these. I just

444
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 1: don't want to wait and have my whole season waiting

445
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 1: on these guys to come save my season. And meanwhile,

446
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: every week I don't have them, they're hurting me. I

447
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 1: just drafted start.

448
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,360
Speaker 2: Is David Peterson and Griffin Canning? Like fix what you've

449
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,679
Speaker 2: been waiting for? Like, that's my only argument.

450
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: You know, statistically speaking, if you just take the names

451
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: away a little bit, I mean they do. That's the

452
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: thing I think you have to. You have to look

453
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: at these hard conversations you have to have with yourself

454
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,640
Speaker 1: at this point where you look at at the here,

455
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 1: we'll do an exercise, right, well, let's look at the

456
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,159
Speaker 1: stats of major league pictures and where they're at in

457
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,119
Speaker 1: terms of some of these guys. I'll throw some names

458
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: at you that are been surprisingly good. If some, I

459
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 1: don't think one's gonna give you. Robbie Ray necessarily, right,

460
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: we're very agree right, especially after that last start he

461
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: had yesterday, that's probably not gonna happen. I don't think

462
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 1: Nola is available, right, I'm not not for these guys now.

463
00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: Jose Burrios probably yesterday.

464
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 2: I think the names you listed are the ones where

465
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 2: like that's that's probably all I mean, I guess if

466
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,199
Speaker 2: I'm thinking of it, like inversely, like I feel like

467
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 2: the Shane McClanahan owned Keller, I want to trade him

468
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 2: for David Peterson. But if you were, like, that's as

469
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 2: much as you could probably give to get.

470
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 1: Him, did you take Mitch Keller for him? Strike out

471
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: to walk has been pretty good, you know, kind of

472
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 1: league average four yard.

473
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 2: Maybe because there's a lot of trade rumors, maybe he

474
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 2: can well.

475
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 1: Look and to Peterson and Canning's you know, Okay, Peterson's

476
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: got three h five e r Can's got two three

477
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 1: sixty RA. Both have eight starts. Both have gone over

478
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 1: forty innings forty two to sixteen strike out to walk

479
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 1: forty three to sixteen strike out to walk. I mean, geez,

480
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 1: that's pretty good. Here's what I'll say if I told

481
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 1: you those were Shaan mclanahan's has to be like, Okay, cool.

482
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 2: Mcclanahan's back to like, I'm being kind of indifferent here

483
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 2: because I think it's kind of tough. But at the

484
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 2: end of the day, we still have no timetable on

485
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 2: Grayson Rodriguez and he said it like a.

486
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,159
Speaker 1: Couple of weeks ago, and I don't think we have

487
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,120
Speaker 1: one on on Well, we have.

488
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 2: Worst news because yesterday report came out that he's still

489
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 2: feeling pain in his triceps, and that's pretty concern.

490
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 1: Not pain. I want to say it was soreness or

491
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,879
Speaker 1: or I want to get the verbiage right, because he

492
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: didn't use the word pain. I think I have it

493
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 1: in the notes, discomfort, lingering, discomfort.

494
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 2: I saw a blurb that said pain, but maybe discomfort.

495
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 1: Maybe lingering discomfort.

496
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 2: Oh I see this discomfort.

497
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right, Yeah, would you drop one of those

498
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: pictures for Chandler Simpson or Bubba Chandler.

499
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:38,199
Speaker 2: Bubba Chandler Simpson, Yes stole on basis, I think I

500
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 2: probably would. You know, I probably shouldn't be as indifferent

501
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:43,399
Speaker 2: as I am at the end of the day. If

502
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 2: you could get a petersoner canning with what those guys

503
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 2: are doing, probably should. But I guess like if you're not,

504
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,879
Speaker 2: if your I L is not a huge issue in

505
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 2: a mess and you're like, oh my gosh, I don't

506
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,639
Speaker 2: have enough space and I got to drop somebody, then

507
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 2: I feel like the upside of both of those guys

508
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 2: for the second half of the season is still really positive.

509
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,959
Speaker 2: But if you are in that, I think you can

510
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 2: make a lot of these moves. Bubba Chandler, I'd probably

511
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 2: prioritize over both of those guys, I guess right now.

512
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 1: Speaking of Bubba Chandler, that brings us to our Microsoft

513
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 1: Chasing Challenges segment for today. Just like the athletes who

514

Speaker 1: push boundaries and redefine what's possible, business decision makers today

515
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,360
Speaker 1: or turning challenges into opportunities and Microsoft meets you are

517

Speaker 1: you make impact with safe secure AI solutions. So whatever

518
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 1: challenges you're facing, Microsoft empowers you with the expertise to say,

519
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 1: bring it on. And in this segment we spotlight the

520
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 1: challenges faced by the Pittsburgh Pirates and why the hell

521
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:46,479
Speaker 1: they're waiting to give us our Bubba? Where's our Bubba Chandler?

522
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,199
Speaker 1: We've been waiting and waiting, and I know he had

523
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 1: a bad start not that long ago. And to Watch's point,

524
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 1: he's human. He's gonna have some bad stars, but ah

525
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,360
Speaker 1: strikeouts yesterday. Come on, if he's not up here by

526
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: the weekend, what are we doing here? This team needs

527
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 1: some sort of injection of life. Paul Skiian has been

528
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: great recently, a little bit more human, but still all world.

529
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 1: And at the same time, we're waiting for Brian Reynolds

530
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 1: to start hitting. We're waiting for O'Neal Cruz to play

531
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 1: again because he was out again yesterday. And look, it's

532
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 1: not a very exciting ball club. The manager's gone already

533
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: and it was only mid May. It's time to get

534
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 1: excited about Pirates baseball. The only way we're gonna do

535
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 1: that is to get Bubba Chandler up, So let's do it. Already,

536
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,479
Speaker 1: stop screwing around. Let's let the kids play and maybe,

537
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 1: just maybe Pittsburgh think about spending more than ten dollars

538
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 1: in the offseason and bring it on some guys who

539
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: maybe aren't at the very tail end of their careers,

540
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,199
Speaker 1: like Tommy Vam and Andrew McCutcheon. So pirates, you got

541
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: a long way to go to compete, but at least

542
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,160
Speaker 1: start being competitive every day on the mound by giving

543
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: that rotation another injection of life too. And all of

544
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 1: a sudden, it's a pretty good rotation with Skeens, Keller,

545
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 1: Chandler and hopefully Jared Jones at some point as well.

546
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 1: And that is this week's Chasing Challengers segment. Remember Microsoft's

552
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: more baseball, and let's start with the ups and downs

553
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: from yesterday. Robbie Ray three run, six innings, nine strikeouts

554
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 1: for him, Andrew Abbott great but no decision against the

555
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,640
Speaker 1: White Sox seven k's and Josh Young two homers. For him,

556
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:32,400
Speaker 1: the downs Jose Burrios classic, Jose good starts, bad starts,

557
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 1: mediocre starts. At the end of the day, he ends

558
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 1: up being your league average pitcher. Five runs, four earned, a,

559
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 1: five and a third. Landon Nac got shelld yesterday against

560
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:42,679
Speaker 1: the Athletics. He gave up five runs and four and

561
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: two third and Jeff Hoffman five runs blues save. Now

562
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 1: he is allowed at least three earned runs in three

563
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,199
Speaker 1: of his last five appearances. So Welsh, take me to

564
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 1: Toronto and the closer role. What's in the future here

565
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: for Hoffman?

566
00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 2: It might be big. Chad Green specula time, I know

567
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 2: someone had mentioned that not too long ago, and that this,

568
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,360
Speaker 2: I mean, this is the curse of curse, and yeah,

569
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 2: it was you. Well, I think a listener also had

570
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,400
Speaker 2: brought it up. It just like it was me, listen,

571
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 2: Jeff brought it up. Okay, Well, Jeff had signed that deal,

572
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 2: he had been pretty solid through the season, he had

573
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 2: had everything locked up, and then pretty much right after

574
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 2: saying that he has had all these poor outings, Chad

575
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,159
Speaker 2: Green has been pretty good. He's got a three and

576
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 2: a half hera. I will say, though, oh my god,

577
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 2: he's giving up twenty percent barrel right now, and he's

578
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:36,879
Speaker 2: gotten expected era that's over five. So this isn't exactly

579
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 2: Cade Smith taking over for Emmanuel Clause or Luke Weaver

580
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:44,400
Speaker 2: taking over for Devin Williams. I kind of still think

581
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 2: that Hoffman, even if they were to say like we're

582
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 2: gonna give him a little rest or something like that

583
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 2: and they go to Chad Green, I don't think Chad

584
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 2: Green's taking this over for him. So I'm still probably

585
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 2: a pick up if he's dropped or something like that

586
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 2: on Hoffman. But it never hurts to speculate on those

587
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 2: second guys if you can. If you have the ability

588
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 2: and your rosters and he's out there, Chad Green maybe

589
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 2: gets a savor too. Kause Hoffman has been a little nicy.

590
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:09,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you need help making moves, to use my

Speaker 1: Baseball My Playbook app today injuries, a lot of them.

596
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: Roki Sazaki goes to the fifteen DAYIL with the shoulder impingement.

597
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:28,959
Speaker 1: I think he went to the IL with the an

598
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 1: impingement of his era, which is four seven to two

599
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: fifteen percent strikeout right. Yuck. Has not been great for Roki,

600
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 1: and I was probably the biggest fader of him going

601
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 1: into this offseason at all.

602
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 2: After after me to say we do me both.

603
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 1: I killed him in the Black Book this year too,

604
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 1: I really did. I was like, guys, I'm just not

605
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: there on this kid. Heyeh.

606
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,360
Speaker 2: I think he'd be massively talented. He's a really interesting

607
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 2: dynasty buy. But from day one I got a lot

608
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,919
Speaker 2: of crap. I did this Industry Prospect draft and I

609
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 2: had the first pick and I didn't take Roki Sazaki,

610
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 2: and I got crapped on for it. I dated him.

611
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 2: I took Tom and guys, which doesn't look that great.

612
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 2: So you can grab on me about that, but that

613
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 2: I didn't take Roku Zaki, you can grab on me,

614
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,479
Speaker 2: just not the same thing with the crochet stuff, Like

615
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,399
Speaker 2: if you wanted, if you want to come at me,

616
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 2: come at me about the right stuff, not the wrong stuff.

617
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 1: But can he bounce back, though, can he come back

618
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 1: from this? Yeah? Injury and oh yes, well Zaki caim.

619
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 2: But the problem has always been you saw Vlo down,

620
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 2: You seen that his uh his, he had no slider,

621
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 2: his fastball was kind of flattened out. It was all

622
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 2: the split finger injury problems or seeing this little mental

623
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 2: game to it from day one, fading him. Unbelievable ADP

624
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 2: that he had going on zero shares of Roki Sazaki.

625
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 2: It's a little I told you so. Does that mean

626
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 2: he's going to be an untalented player? Absolutely not. There's

627
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 2: a long way to go. But the draft capital that

628
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 2: was put into him in the preseason is Berserko. Absolutely berserko.

629
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: Uh. Let's get to some better news. Uh, at some

630
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: point on the injury list more bad though, Corey Seeger

631
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: did officially go in the IL. I just want to

632
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: throw that out there. We were waiting for the official

633
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 1: move to happen and took a while. Acunia though, it

634
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 1: was back Ronald Acunya, first game back, minor league rehab game,

635
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: first one Welsh What did he do? Hit a home run?

636
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: How'd that make you feel? Well? Feel strong? Oh?

637
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, all the cockles were just jingling so wonderful. It

638
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 2: is sad, that, isn't it sad When a major superstar

639
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 2: has a rehab assignment and I'm not there, It just

640
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:30,560
Speaker 2: doesn't feel quite right.

641
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: It is kind of strange.

642
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 2: I feel like I should have went to Florida just

643
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 2: for that. But it was phenomenal to see hit a Homer.

644
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 2: He was hanging with all these kids. This is why

645
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 2: I'm also taking that under again. He's not going to

646
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 2: be for the I think it was in the SCL

647
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 2: He's going to move up. He's going to get a

648
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 2: little bit more competitive, and I really do think pre

649
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 2: what did you say June sixth? Originally you're going to

650
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 2: get him right before May happens that we're going to

651
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 2: get Ronald Acunya back and love to see Homers in

652
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 2: those first rehab starts.

653
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 1: There's no like. I'm trying to remember too. Was he

654
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: on the sixty, Like, is there a date where he's

655
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 1: not allowed to come back before June?

656
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 2: That's a great question. I don't remember.

657
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 1: If he was put on for research that sixty where's

658
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: the research team? Somebody get them on there.

659
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 2: But also if research team, let's say he was put

660
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 2: on this because you could retroactively do it if he

661
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 2: was put on the sixty the season started, I think

662
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 2: the twenty eighth, which would line up beautiful four the thirtieth, So.

663
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: There you go, just in time. So yeah, what you first?

664
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 1: All right? Kevin Cash, we mentioned it earlier, was mentioning

665
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 1: that Shane McClanahan still feeling discomfort, lingering discomfort, and he's

666
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 1: not going to start ramping up the intensity right now.

667
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 1: So there's still no timetable for Shamee McClanahan, and that

668
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: just sucks. Man. I went all in this year with

669
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: McClanahan and Alcontra, and let me tell you, in this

670
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: one league, it has not been good to me. It

671
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 1: has not been good. It's been an epic fail. I

672
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 1: have to own it. It's been terrible. The math was good,

673
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 1: the risk was good, the price was good. It's just

674
00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 1: been terrible. Tyler Glass, now he's clear, start throwing, okay,

675
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: So keep your fingers crossed and that goes okay. Logan

676
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 1: Gilbert twenty five pitch bullpen session yesterday. You Darvish is

677
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 1: gonna make a minor league rehab start today in triple A. TJ.

678
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 1: Friedo we mentioned earlier, had that terrible collision in center

679
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 1: field with Ellie de la Cruz. He was removed with

680
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 1: a wrist soreness there and then Mike Trout moved from

681
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 1: the zero gravity treadmill to fielding into Jody drills on Tuesday.

682
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: So maybe getting closer to a rehab assignment for Mike Trout,

683
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: which would be great and Welsh. That brings us to

684
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 1: the best bets of the day with Joey p and

685
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 1: the Welsh, Let's take a look at today's betting slave.

686
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 1: We've got a lot of day games. We're gonna go

687
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: right to the night and I'm gonna go right to

688
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: Nico Horner plus two twenty five to steal a base. Now,

689
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 1: why am I doing that? Because Augustin Ramirez is just

690
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 1: one for fifteen throwing out runners this year. That's not great.

691
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 1: Nico's got some wheels, he can steal a base. We're

692
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 1: getting a huge return on this plus two twenty five.

693
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 1: So I love this. I went out there and you

694
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 1: know I'm doing these stolen base props.

695
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 2: Now.

696
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: I'm very big on this because I like to see

697
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 1: the catchers that are struggling to throw guys out and

698
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 1: find the speed stairs because you're always getting such a

699
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: positive number and tonight Nico Horner is definitely that guy

700
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,959
Speaker 1: that's getting a really good plus two twenty five just

701
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: to get a steal. He's also, by the way, fun

702
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 1: fact of two players one of two that has yet

703
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: of all qualifying at bats to hit a home run

704
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 1: him and you want to guess who the other one

705
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: is qualifying.

706
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 2: At bats that do not have a home run, that

707
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 2: do not have a home run. Oh, give me like

708
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 2: a small hint.

709
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:35,720
Speaker 1: A National League East infielder.

710
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 2: Oh, those are good hints, Mace. That's central. I don't know.

711
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 1: Let's leave it for the chat. See what the chat

712
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: has to say about it. In the meantime, give me

713
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: Aaron Judge to drive it a run today a plus

714
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 1: one twenty five as well. He has a career four

715
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: twenty nine batting average with a fifteen hundred ops against Castillo.

716
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 1: Who's on the hill tonight for Seattle and Turik scooble,

717
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,360
Speaker 1: give me over seven and a half strikeouts at minus

718
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: one oh four last six starts, he's been brilliant fifty strikeouts,

719
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: one walk in thirty seven innings, pitch four earned runs.

720
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: Just incredible run here for Tarik's schoogle. So those are

721
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: my bets Welsh. We'll go through yours and then we'll

722
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: see if anybody's got an answer. No, it's not Jackson Holiday,

723
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 1: he said, National League's, National League's.

724
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 2: I'm going to go with the New York Yankees first

725
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 2: five money line. I think Will Warren is on the bump.

726
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 2: But more importantly, even though it's the Luis Castillo on

727
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 2: is why this is not like heavily favored one direction.

728
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 2: But Luis Castillo has not been great. Yankees offense has,

729
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 2: so we're gonna go first five money line. It pushes,

730
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 2: we push. If they're up by a run through five,

731
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 2: we taken it home. We're going with the New York

732
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 2: Yankees first five money line. Corbin Barrels Corbyn Carroll is

733
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 2: tied for the league lead in homers. Did you know

734
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 2: that he is a monster. There is some wind blowing

735
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 2: out it's to his opposite side, but you know he's

736
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 2: not afraid and he has punched plenty of homers out

737
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 2: on the opposite field. But we don't even care about that.

738
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 2: Jordan Hicks hasn't quite done that. But we're gonna go

739
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 2: with over total bases one point five over total bases,

740
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 2: which is plus money on carbon barrels, one of the

741
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 2: hottest hitters in baseball plus one oh five, and then

742
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 2: this canna be a weird one. But Hunter Dobbins over

743
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 2: four and a half strikeouts plus one ten. Dobbins has

744
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 2: kind of been a monster. I was doing a stream

745
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,920
Speaker 2: yesterday on my personal twitch and someone had brought him

746
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 2: up and you're looking, and you're going, man, this split finger.

747
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 2: There's this fastball, there's this like three pitch mix that's

748
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 2: getting it going. He's keeping batters to you know, he's

749
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,240
Speaker 2: not a strikeout monster, but he's keeping batters to bad contact.

750
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 2: You got the Tigers in town. I think that split

751
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,000
Speaker 2: finger is going to give some people some fits. So

752
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 2: we're going to go five strikeouts, which Dobbins has hit

753
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 2: I believe in two of his last three starts. So

754
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,840
Speaker 2: Hunter Dobbins over four point five strikeouts versus the Tigers

755
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 2: at plus one ten. Those are my best bets, me

756
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 2: and Puppet Joe. I don't know if you saw Joe.

757
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 2: We almost had a real true Puppet Joe moment pre

758
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 2: bets of the day, but you came back unfortunately.

759
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 1: Well I always come back's that's possibly today too, which

760
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: could be fun, all right, don't forget everybody. Make your

00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 1: of his mind. He's having a Bonds esque sort of season.

Speaker 1: I need a home run. I'm I have no shame.

Speaker 1: So Aaron Judge, that's it. Uh, I got no uh

Speaker 1: no analysis behind that Welsh what do you got?

789
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 2: Well, I'm gonna go shameless with you because I haven't

790
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 2: done this all year. I don't think I picked. I've

791
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 2: never picked Aaron Judge this year. I think check the records,

792
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 2: and I don't think I've picked sho heo Tani. I

793
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 2: usually do most of mine without but we're gonna go

794
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 2: Otani tonight. There's some wind blowing out Otani. Obviously the

795
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 2: monster gonna get back on the board. So I saw

796
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:47,439
Speaker 2: Joe playing at cheap. I'm gonna play at cheap today.

797
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 1: We're going double down because I have Hotani yesterday.

798
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 2: So well, Also, you're gonna do a little imperpetuity because

799
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:54,320
Speaker 2: you're not gonna be here tomorrow.

800
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,720
Speaker 1: So yeah, so I'll just take judge in perpetuity.

801
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:58,840
Speaker 2: For the next two days because.

802
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 1: Tomorrow I'm getting my perpetuity checked. That's he's going to

803
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,240
Speaker 1: got to do. When you get in your mid forties,

804
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,239
Speaker 1: he's supposed to go do this, So I'm going to

805
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 1: do it. Well, No, not that one. Now, that's not that.

806
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 1: It's not that one. It's the other one. It's the

807
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:11,799
Speaker 1: one where they, you know, with the camera and they

808
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,160
Speaker 1: go whoo, they look around in me, they see what's it? Well,

809
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 1: they find speaking of pieces of crap, Pete Rose was

810
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 1: reinstated to Major League Baseball, I guess yesterday along with

811
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: Shoe was Joe Jackson. People asked us for any comments

812
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: we had at the beginning of the show, so we

813
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 1: did all the fantasy and all the betting stuff. First.

814
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 1: I think that America has a complicated history, and I

815
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 1: think it's important to tell it. I think Baseball has

816
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,799
Speaker 1: a complicated history, and I think it's important to tell it.

817
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 1: I think at the same time, you have to let

818
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 1: the people who are in charge of the decisions make

819
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: these decisions. It's funny in some ways Baseball was ahead

820
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,320
Speaker 1: of America, you know, around the like in the fifties

821
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 1: when you're breaking the color barrier with Jackie Robinson. There's

822
00:37:57,680 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 1: a lot of amazing things that went on with major

823
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 1: league free agency. Yeah, we take that for granted what

824
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:04,840
Speaker 1: that looks like in other sports now that people aren't

825
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 1: just indentured servants. In a lot of ways, the story

826
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 1: of baseball and the story of America go hand in hand.

827
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 1: And they're not always pretty stories. Sometimes they're a little ced,

828
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 1: sometimes they're gross, sometimes they're sad, sometimes they're scary. And

829
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 1: Pete Rose was an incredible baseball player and also probably

830
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:25,439
Speaker 1: a sociopath. He convinced himself that he wasn't doing something

831
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 1: he was doing. He did a lot of other things

832
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 1: that were very unsavory. From all the accounts that we have.

833
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 1: He's the all time hit leader. I think it's kind

834
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 1: of crazy to put him in the Hall of Fame

835
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: after he's dead. I know that's what the family wants,

836
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: but at the same time, well for me, I look

837
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,799
Speaker 1: at it and saying, if his peers vote him in,

838
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 1: or whoever now gets the vote, if it is the

839
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 1: baseball writers first, which I assume it is, that there's

840
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:49,520
Speaker 1: a good chunk of them that are going to vote

841
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 1: for him. I just want the plaque to tell the truth,

842
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 1: and I think at the end of the day, a

843
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,320
Speaker 1: museum is supposed to be the truth of a scenario

844
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 1: and the truth of a history. Same with Joe Jackson,

845
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: Which is funny because Joe Jackson was never convicted of

846
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 1: doing the things. He always said, I never did this.

847
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 1: He was part of that group, and you know he

848
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,800
Speaker 1: said I never threw the games. You know, the money

849
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,400
Speaker 1: never showed up, all that stuff. So I have an

850
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 1: easier point with Joe Jackson than I do in some

851
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 1: ways with Pete Rose. But I'm fine with both of

852
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 1: them being in the Hall of Fame as long as

853
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 1: the plaque tells the truth and the whole story and

854
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:24,959
Speaker 1: not just the warm and sunny version of it. Welsh,

855
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:25,720
Speaker 1: what are your thoughts?

856
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I guess I've for the most part,

857
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 2: just agree with that. Like it's there's a lot of

858
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 2: stuff that people are bringing out about some things I

859
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 2: didn't even realize about Pete Rose and what kind of

860
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 2: like a garbage person he could be in some spaces,

861
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,400
Speaker 2: But the Hall of Fame is about the player on

862
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 2: the field, and like maybe some of those things can

863
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 2: be differentiating factors for a fringy player, but like you know,

864
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 2: I'm this is very different scenario, but like very Bond

865
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:53,359
Speaker 2: should be in the Hall of Fame.

866
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 1: Like there's not.

867
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:55,719
Speaker 2: A question about it for me.

868
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,840
Speaker 1: Again, tell the truth and tell the truth on the plaque.

869
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 2: Pete Rose definitely, you know, differentiating the type of person

870
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 2: he was and the stuff he did to what he

871
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,960
Speaker 2: did in baseball, I think are crazy. But I'll tell

872
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,439
Speaker 2: you this, of all these things, I'm still a little

873
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,320
Speaker 2: I'm always indifferent. I think the Hall of Fame is

874
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,839
Speaker 2: kind of silly and all others, like, especially with how

875
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 2: it's been treated. But I was thrown off by what

876
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 2: they decided to do in the take of this, being like,

877
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 2: well it's a lifetime ban, but they're dead, so now

878
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:28,320
Speaker 2: we'll talk about it. I think that's hilariously stupid. Really,

879
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 2: I just think like, yeah, that's going to if you're

880
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 2: gonna consider them in any capacity, then let's have a

881
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,240
Speaker 2: bigger conversation. Don't just be like, well, now they're dead

882
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,400
Speaker 2: and they went to their grave with all the badness

883
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,359
Speaker 2: and that they'll never get there. But now that they're dead,

884
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,840
Speaker 2: now we can do that. And by the way, US Baseball,

885
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,719
Speaker 2: we're gonna take all the credit and all the accolades,

886
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:50,759
Speaker 2: and oh, we're gonna now put them here and people

887
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:52,959
Speaker 2: are gonna come see this, and we're gonna make money

888
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 2: off of their name, and we're gonna I think it's

889
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:56,040
Speaker 2: silly and stupid.

890
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:59,000
Speaker 1: Well, the family's care, the legacy cares. They can make

891
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,240
Speaker 1: money off of it too, sure to a certain degree.

892
00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 1: But you know, once the once the person's gone, which

893
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: is why I always hate when people go in possums.

894
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 1: I hated when Buck O'Neil went in after he had

895
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:12,799
Speaker 1: passed away, a man who gave his life to the

896
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,879
Speaker 1: game of baseball, and so many people from the Negro

897
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: leagues had gotten in the Hall of Fame, but not

898
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: Buck O'Neill, who was an ambassador of the game everywhere,

899
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 1: just an incredible human being and a great baseball player too.

900
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 1: I was so grateful that Dave Parker was not in

901
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 1: that circumstance. He's not been well for some time. I

902
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 1: want Dave Parker in the Hall of Fame, to be

903
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 1: there at the Hall of Fame, but you know, it's

904
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 1: it's baseball. Hall of Fame is a weird.

905
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,880
Speaker 2: And there's not definitive answers for anybody. I think everybody

906
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 2: knows that. At the end of the day, it's like

907
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 2: everybody has their opinion on it. It's fine. I think there

908
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 2: are some things that are kind of like you can

909
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 2: just full on, you know, say, like we can't really disagree.

910
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 2: Like Pete Rose was the all time hits leader, you know,

911
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 2: so like that speaks for himself.

912
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 1: That is what it was his letter, But he lied

913
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 1: about betting on baseball, which he did, which was illegal

914
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 1: at the time and was subsequently banned. Tell the story.

915
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:02,600
Speaker 1: It's okay, it's a museum. It's music museums. Think about

916
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 1: the museums, you know that have horrible things in them.

917
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 1: They tell the truth, right, but they're accurate and it's important.

918
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 2: And there's some scumbags that are in there right now

919
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 2: for sure. They just hit.

920
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's guys who took steroids. There's some horrible human

921
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 1: being of Ty Cobb, not the best human being. Yeah right,

922
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,439
Speaker 1: you know, but again the circumstances are what they are.

923
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 1: The answer, by the way of the trivia question, the

924
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 1: other guy was Xavier Edwards, who's in this next and

925
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 1: last question. He's the guy that doesn't have a home run?

926
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,920
Speaker 1: Who should I take rest of season? Head to head, Edwards,

927
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:36,240
Speaker 1: Netto Wilson or William Thomas, all available on waivers. Wow,

928
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: shallow league, very shallow.

929
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 2: They gotta go Nedo. But these are all great options,

930
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 2: and you should go with the hot hand if all

931
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:44,040
Speaker 2: those type of guys are sitting out there, because then

932
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:45,479
Speaker 2: you could just burn and churn.

933
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:47,400
Speaker 1: Here you go. That'll do it for us, But the

934
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,239
Speaker 1: story of the game goes on for the Welsh. I'm
