Finally, I mean, we don't have 38 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: to wait that long, but still Jeff passon reporting the 39 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: Orioles are calling up Jackson Holiday Holiday Celebrate, Let's go. 40 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: He was pretty amazing. I mean, you basically got sent 41 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: down Welsh and was I don't know the hottest hitter 42 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: in Tria for the most part. Him and Hester Gearsdad 43 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: maybe going back and forth, but he was tremendous. It 44 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,399 Speaker 1: was kind of a waste of time. It's the tenth 45 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 1: of April. I guess all is forgiven. Will forget about it. 46 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: But Jackson Holiday from the jump. If you have them, 47 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: get him in your lineup. So what are your expectations 48 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: now for him? Why lang for getting off to a 49 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: bit of a slow start compared to how red hot 50 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: he was in the spring. I bet Jackson Holiday today 51 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: just to hedge a little bit for the rookie of 52 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: the year now that he's up taking the big number. 53 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: What do you think about this holiday premiere on What's Today? Wednesday? 54 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: Yeah that's right. 55 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well we used to call these Welsh Wednesdays in 56 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 2: the CBS days. When I would come on Wednesday's, prospects 57 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 2: would pop up and wouldn't you know it, it happens again. 58 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 2: There's a lot that you threw in there because a 59 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 2: I also did the same thing. To look at the odds. 60 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,119 Speaker 2: I just don't love the odd I wish I could 61 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 2: get better odds on Holiday. I think he is wide open, 62 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 2: wide open for that race because none of those guys 63 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 2: just ran away with it early on. So Jackson Holiday 64 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 2: is absolutely on the board. I have a six to 65 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 2: one bet from very early on in the preseason on 66 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 2: why at Langford. So that's there. But you said something 67 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: pretty critical the expectations, because here's the problem. Of course 68 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 2: you're going to see this. I had a response on 69 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 2: one of my Jackson Holiday tweets last night. First response 70 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 2: was overhyped, and to be fair, it's kind of there 71 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 2: though I'm not the person who something awesome happens and 72 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 2: then immediately you go negative on a guy coming up, 73 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 2: which we should be excited about. But there is an 74 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 2: expectation thing that everybody has to also hold in because 75 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 2: Jackson Holiday is not this like big, crazy mashing hitter, 76 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: but he's one of the better contact hitters in baseball. 77 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 2: He just left Triple A with a higher walk rate 78 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 2: than strikeout rate under fifteen percent. Strikeout rate, walked over 79 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: twenty percent of the time. He hit three thirty three. 80 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 2: We saw a couple bombs, stolen bases, boom, he was 81 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: hitting off lefties, he was doing all this stuff. So 82 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 2: the expectation here is that we're going to probably be 83 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 2: seeing him hit six or seven. We're going to hope 84 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 2: that you start to see some of those hard hits. 85 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 2: His average EV was really good and a and he's 86 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 2: gonna be a doubles type of hitter. But what you're 87 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 2: gonna be looking for is just kind of not the 88 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 2: email chain, but constant contact. You know, you're not gonna 89 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: be looking for crazy, crazy high end counting stats right 90 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 2: out the gates. But we also haven't seen that from 91 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 2: a lot of the other guys. I think Holladay goes 92 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 2: right into this mix. You want to call him over 93 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 2: hyped or overrated or whatever you want. This was my guy, 94 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 2: This is my number one. They haven't announced to get 95 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 2: because the game is a little bit later tonight, I'm 96 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 2: just gonna throw it out. I'm gonna guess it's gonna 97 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 2: be like six or seven. I was watching that game yesterday. 98 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 2: I had some bets on it. If people are watching 99 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 2: both hit by the Way, Addy Rutchmond total Bases and 100 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: the so embarrassing Tony Kemp and ramon Arius in that lineup, 101 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,359 Speaker 2: they made the switch, but they seem kind of locked 102 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 2: in the first five or six. So I'm gonna guess, 103 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 2: just off the top of my head, it's gonna be six, 104 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 2: but I would not be shocked if you take a 105 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 2: guy who doesn't strike out, who gets on base, and 106 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 2: you throw them right to the Wolves early on, like 107 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 2: tons of other prospects do. So if they were to 108 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 2: do that, hitting him him like two after Gunner Henderson 109 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 2: would be phenomenal. But that's where Adley goes. So that's 110 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 2: what's kind of hard. So i'd expect six, i'd expect runs. 111 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 2: I'd expect a decent batting average. I think he's going 112 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: to steal a bunch of bases in the majors, and 113 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: I think you should be excited. And this is why 114 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 2: I wrote in my prospect article that I thought he 115 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 2: would come up this week. I wrote that I thought 116 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 2: he would come up this week, and I would not 117 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: drop for any circumstance because I think he's going to 118 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: be a solid fantasy asset, but a lot to be seen. 119 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 2: You do need to temper the excitement and expectations. But 120 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 2: I might stream this game later, Joe, I might like 121 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 2: stream while the game is on. I'm not excited about it. 122 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad you're excited about I think we're all 123 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 1: excited about I know Orioles fans were excited about it. 124 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 1: Everyone who drafted it was excited. I think the expectation 125 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: is the temper of the power. Expectations doubles. Yes, batting average, sure, stone, bases, 126 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: run productivity, all that stuff is gonna be there. It's 127 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: the power that I think is gonna take a little 128 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: bit longer. And that's fine. In points leagues are gonna 129 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: be very valuable, and head to head category leagues, you know, 130 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: the steels will be you know, the batting average out, 131 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: all that will be helpful. It's just the power. He's 132 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: not a thirty home run guy. He's not that guy. 133 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: So you have to dial back those expectations. 134 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 2: Also, Baltimore got a little bit worse as Farr as 135 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 2: our hitting environment go. 136 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: So that's like having our environment is not what it 137 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: used to be in Camden Yards for sure. Uh. First 138 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: time here for our friend Kyle, first time here live. 139 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: Love this show, Kyle.

It's amazing. 155 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 2: There's there was Tito baseball player. Tito was a popular name. 156 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 2: It's just doesn't you know, I don't see anymore. Yeah, 157 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 2: where have all the Tito's gone? 158 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: I love that song.

Yeah, 173 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: like like right now, Like would you do you think 174 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: like Lindor is struggling. You can't get Lindor for him, 175 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: could you? 176 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 2: I don't think so. But a lot of people will 177 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 2: say the best time to trade any prospect is the 178 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 2: moment that they're called up that little window that you 179 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: have because the hype is so big. I just don't 180 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 2: know if the hype is to that type of level. 181 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 2: I just don't think it's worth it, honestly don't. I don't. 182 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 2: If you can get inside the top seventy five range, 183 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 2: maybe we could start talking and stuff like that, but 184 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 2: I'd rather don't know. I'd rather kind of just wait 185 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 2: it out and see if, like the contact gets really good. 186 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 2: Like what would you trade for Teio right now? After 187 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 2: you've seen Trio for quite some time, He's lived up 188 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 2: to expectations for the most part, he has. 189 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: But you know, with Holiday, I think his expectations were 190 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: even higher, if that's possible, like and also also that 191 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: thing of all we want him so bad, and then 192 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: he didn't come up right away, and now he's up 193 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: ten days later. You have to work wait a little 194 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:29,679 Speaker 1: bit while we look. 195 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 2: It down in the comments at Roberts, this is an 196 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 2: interesting one, Robert Deep Robert, my. 197 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: People, I got offered O'Neal cruise for Jackson holiday. Who 198 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: would you rather have rest of season? 199 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 2: I would take O'Neil cruz. I would trade my Jackson. 200 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: It depends on your roster construction, like if you're batting 201 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: average stinks or whatever, and holiday could really be a help. There, 202 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 1: I get it. But outside of that being the issue, 203 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: I'm with Welsh there. But I think you get these 204 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: moments here where the hype train is at its peak, 205 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: we have to consider, Okay, well, you know Redraft I 206 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: had these kind of expectations. These this is what the 207 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: bat ax, this is what you know atc Projection say 208 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: for the kid, this is what the minor league track 209 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: record is. And can I get somebody to overpay? If 210 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: you can get somebody to overpay for holiday, I would 211 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: be listening.

I can't get past that. 240 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 1: Kirby was your guy going into this year. So now 241 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: you have to sit here and you have to advise 242 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 1: the people what to do. Are we just gonna stay 243 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: pad here? Are you worried about the rest of season? 244 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 1: Is this a by low opportunity with Kirby? I know, 245 00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: one start we don't get too much. Now two starts. 246 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: It's the hits that really just keep on coming. To 247 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 1: have me worried. 248 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 2: I think you have to Kirby. Your enthusiasm with George 249 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 2: moving forward a little bit. Anybody, hello, wow this on. 250 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 2: I'm I'm annoyed. I'm incredibly annoyed with everything. 251 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: You got kazued on that one good one. 252 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 2: That's a good one. 253 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: I haven't consued yet in leading off. I have it here. 254 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 1: I've been waiting to use it. 255 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 2: Well, you just did. 256 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: You pursued me. I consumed you I would. I'm sure 257 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: that's gonna be lovely for people in the audio pod today. 258 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna love that moment. 259 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 2: I am worried about George Kirby, sure, but but I 260 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 2: will tell you he's still like doing the Kirby thing, 261 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 2: like the stuff is still there. First pitch out of 262 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 2: the game ninety seven on the paint, bam bam, first sitting, 263 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 2: he looked fantastic. Then he's lacking confidence. He's not fooling anybody. 264 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 2: I put a tweet out there that it was like 265 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 2: the slider was getting no swings outside the zone. And 266 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 2: here's the main thing. Here's my main takeaway from George Kirby, 267 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 2: and I think this is fixable, is that everything is 268 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 2: in the zone. He's such a wacko about like I 269 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 2: can't walk anybody like. It's frustrating because seventy eight percent 270 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 2: sinkers were in the zone. You can't put fastballs in 271 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 2: the zone. So my big thesis on this is if 272 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 2: everything is just in the zone. Then hitters they can 273 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 2: be super picky and selective. They don't have to chase 274 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 2: outside the zone. There's nothing that's fooling them. So what 275 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 2: they do is they wait for the pitch that they 276 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 2: want in the zone because it's all coming in the zone. 277 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 2: And you can see that from performing yesterday. His slider 278 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 2: had one whiff, one whiff, and he threw twenty one 279 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 2: of them. There were a couple of swings, but only 280 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 2: one whiff through. It was not effective. The sinker, it's 281 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 2: not a strikeout pitch. It had one whiff on fourteen swings, 282 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 2: but again seventy eight percent in the zone. And the 283 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 2: fastball it kind of ticked down after the first inning 284 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 2: or two. So I'm not sure what the fix is. 285 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 2: I think it can happen. I am still a psychopath 286 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 2: that would probably buy super super low, but I am 287 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 2: more worried. I am more worried. 288 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 1: I have the answer. You want to hear it. Knock 289 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: somebody on their rear end, knock a few guys down 290 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, guys aren't looking in the zone anymore. 291 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: Like you know, this is we talked about a little 292 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: bit yesterday. You go, old man, Joe, You don't have 293 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: the clouds. But like, it's true, the art of pitching 294 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: sometimes is just as much mental as is physical. You know, 295 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about like Don dress, I'll trying to 296 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: like take people's heads off, But I'm talking about throwing inside. 297 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 1: I'm talking about get some guys off the plate a 298 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,839 Speaker 1: little bit. You start getting if your control is so 299 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: good that you can pound the zone that way, your 300 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 1: control is so good you can pound the inside corner 301 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: a little bit wherever the guy is, knock him off 302 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 1: the plate, make him think twice, then pound the zone 303 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: a little bit. Again, it's that intimidation factor that lacks 304 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: in a lot of these pictures. You know, people wonder 305 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: why why was little Pedro Martinez so damn intimidating? Why? 306 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: Because you would knock you on your rear end, And 307 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: you know what that gets in people's heads. And when 308 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 1: you have the kind of stuff and velocity that Pedro Martinez, well, 309 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: he's a special talent. But there was a lot of 310 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 1: guys out there there or effective just from the mentality standpoint. 311 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 1: And the thing that I watched because I caught Kirby 312 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: in the the third inning last night, a little bit 313 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: of that game. Yeah, well, start getting bat And that's 314 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: what I saw. I saw a guy that did not 315 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: have the command of the presence of the mound, not 316 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: command of the fastball, command of the presence on the mound. 317 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: And that, my friends, is key the mental part of 318 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: this game. It's it's just as important from the pitching 319 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: standpoin and. 320 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 2: I think anything else. He has struggles with some of 321 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 2: the mental part of the game while also being very 322 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 2: strong in some aspects of it of a really smart 323 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 2: guy like I was. 324 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: But it's not about smart. It's about intimidating. It's about 325 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: making the guy thing twice. And I'm not trying to 326 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: hurt anybody. I'm saying pitching inside. Pitching inside is a 327 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: lost art form. When things are not going well, Knock 328 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: somebody over a little bit, move somebody off the plate 329 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: a little bit. Then all of a sudden, everybody next 330 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: time they go out to bat, they're a little litle 331 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: bit more cautious. And that's all you need to get 332 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: back on track, and just the command back. 333 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: And deception and deception. Casey mins I always I didn't. 334 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 2: My problem, Casey miy is Everyone's like, oh, the splitter, 335 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 2: but the splitter never hit the zone, it would come 336 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 2: out of the zone. So then hitters were just like, well, 337 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 2: I'm just never going to swing at this and I'm 338 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 2: gonna wait for your fastball when you're behind because you 339 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 2: threw the splitter. Same thing kind of works with Kirby 340 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 2: is throw behind, you know, don't be worried about walking 341 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 2: a guy. Throw some pitches that people don't have an 342 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 2: expectations hitting in the zone. I think it is fixable, 343 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 2: but like, sure, I'm struggling as much as anybody with Kirby. 344 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 2: I have the highest pitcher share I have this season 345 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 2: is George Kirby. So it's not good. It's not good, 346 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 2: and I'm tired of the Kirby pit for him. 347 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: But like this is this is easy, this is old 348 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: school baseball. Here a little bit and guess what it'll work. 349 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: It'll I mean, you think Max Schuur's not guys to 350 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: the ground, of course he did. You know, you know 351 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: you got to take that inside play. 352 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 2: Should change his color eye, that's actually what he should do. 353 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 2: He should have two different color get a contact. 354 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: Here's one from Matthew C. K Nico Horner for Jackson 355 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: Holiday Welsh. I'd rather have got to be a pretty 356 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: shallow league pick up holiday trade, Nico. That's that's the path, 357 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: that's what you want to do. Here's one from Kyle 358 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: every we if Penance and Cracker Ducks are live today, 359 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 1: is his MVP trout back He is until he gets hurt. 360 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: So let's see it for one hundred and fifty games 361 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: and then I will gladly say he's the MVP. Here 362 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: we go, pretty good, he's in pretty good. He finally 363 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: drove in somebody by the. 364 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 2: Way, which was driving in many over the wall. 365 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, just basically himself. All right. All the stars 366 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: were out yesterday. Uh, Jordan Alvarez four for five with 367 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 1: a double. He was great. Pete Alonzo two for four, 368 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: a double and a homer. Ronald Acuna two for three, 369 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: three stolen bases, three runs there, so that was good 370 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: to see. Tyler Glass now seven scoreless, I got fourteen guys. 371 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: Wish we laughter at that one. That would have been great. 372 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: Evan Carter got his first homer of the day, Sunny 373 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: Gray five scoreless, enning striking out five. Good return for 374 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: him against the Phillies and Cole Reagan's along with every 375 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: other bet just light on fire. I was so bad 376 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: yesterday take a responsibility taking the l things that looked 377 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 1: so good. I was zero for four yesterday. Booh, gotta 378 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 1: get back on track. Look, you said it, you were right. 379 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: Astros were a tough lineup. I thought it could squeeze 380 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: out six strikeouts. He got hit around too much. It 381 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: was not meant to be. But still we go back 382 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 1: to business as usual. If this was in Houston, I 383 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: would have been with you. But the fact that he 384 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:26,679 Speaker 1: was in his own ballpark, I thought we can get 385 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 1: the six, maybe even seven, but just too many hits. 386 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: And unfortunately, you know, for Cole Reagan's that's how good 387 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 1: the Astros lineup is. 388 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's the caveat. I mean, because like the 389 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 2: I was pretty good. His shoes three to one. But 390 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 2: the one I missed was also a strikeout prop and 391 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 2: it was Zach Wheeler in a pretty good matchup as 392 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 2: far as strikeouts go. And he had one hundred and 393 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 2: seven pitches. If I would have told you he won 394 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 2: one hundred and seven pitches against a team that strikes 395 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 2: out in the top half of the league, he'd have 396 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,639 Speaker 2: been like he'd hit seven k's. He had five. He 397 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 2: couldn't get there. A lot of bad calls that were happening. 398 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 2: Reagan's is one of the premier strikeout guys. But the 399 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 2: only thing that took me off, like I said, was 400 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 2: that was a lower K lower chase team in Houston, 401 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,880 Speaker 2: and he still almost got there. So the logic made sense. 402 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:13,120 Speaker 1: It was just like dj C says, Joe chooses violence, 403 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: I do. I don't choose violence. But like, like I've 404 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: been coaching flag football now for three plus years. You'd 405 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 1: flag football, and those games, you know, get very intense. 406 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 1: Sometimes I always tell my kids, like if you have 407 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 1: to play with a certain level of intensity, like this 408 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 1: field belongs to you and every play is going to 409 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: be successful. You drop a ball, you come back for 410 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: the next thing. It's the mental side of the game too. 411 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 1: And it's and sometimes with some of your best players 412 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: where you've got to always get them refocused and and 413 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: and you've got to think, hey, you know I threw 414 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: a pick last time, doesn't matter. I'm gonna go out 415 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 1: there and I got to throw this ball here and 416 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: just execute next time. With Like when I'm watching Kirby 417 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: last night, in that inning, I was picked it up, 418 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: like I said, in the second inning, into the third inning, 419 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 1: I saw a guy who was, like you said, pound 420 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 1: the strike zone, but didn't have any of that stretching 421 00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 1: of the strike zone, didn't have any of that stuff. 422 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,120 Speaker 1: Like Greg Maddox didn't all that hard. But Greg Madis 423 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 1: would throw inside when he had to. Let's not pretend 424 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 1: like you didn't. And I think that's just a lost form. 425 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: I wish we would give it back to that. And again, 426 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: you don't have to throw ninety five to do it 427 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 1: to be successful. You just don't have to. It's the 428 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: art of pitching. Speaking of pitching, the Athletic is reporting 429 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: that Spencer Arraghetty also my people getting called up the Astros, 430 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: I mean top pitching prospect. Basically, that's what it is. 431 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 1: He's twenty four years old, he's got a two one 432 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: six ERA, the whip is high though, one point six 433 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: to eight. So far this year, he's got ten strikeouts 434 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: and eight innings. But he's also got seven walks, walks 435 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: or a problem. I had people asking me questions last night. 436 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: Should I pick him up? Kept saying yeah, if you 437 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: can pick him up, pick him up. If he has 438 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: a good start, he becomes trade bait or whatever, doesn't 439 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,959 Speaker 1: cost anything. But if he's bad, you just cut him. 440 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: What's your prospect take on Arraghetty two for people who 441 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 1: think that this is a potential long term option here, 442 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: or at least patchwork option with ranber valdez health being 443 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:53,479 Speaker 1: still uncertain. 444 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the team context I think is pretty 445 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 2: great for the Astros in general. He's kind of like 446 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 2: a predominantly three big pitch pitcher, you know, nice fastball, 447 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 2: mid nineties fastball, solid curveball, sweepy slider. But command is 448 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 2: the issue. So it's a little icy for me, Like 449 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 2: guys that have big, sweepy sweepers. When you lack command, 450 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 2: I worry a little bit that teams are just they're 451 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 2: not going to offer at that sweeper. And then if 452 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 2: if if nobody, if nobody is giving you that offering, 453 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 2: it's not going to set up the curveball better, it's 454 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 2: not going to set up the fastball. He's gonna have 455 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 2: to hit the zone. So it's gonna be one of 456 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 2: two things. In my mind, it's going to be guys 457 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 2: haven't seen his stuff, and if these pitches are even 458 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 2: hunting the zone, they're gonna be swinging through trying to 459 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 2: hit a rookie. Otherwise, if the command is really off, 460 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 2: then he's going to get you know, lit up a 461 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 2: little bit. But this is a guy, this is I mean, 462 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 2: Astros do a great job in pitching development. I kind 463 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: of trust it they're bringing. Even though the walks up 464 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 2: a little bit this year, it wasn't that big of 465 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 2: an issue last year. I think in the right circumstance 466 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 2: this you can do this. 467 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: I think you can do this. 468 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 2: And who are they facing today is that the Royals? 469 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 2: Is that the lamp? Yeah, the roy You know what, 470 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 2: Royals can get a little swing happy, especially on sliders. 471 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 2: If he doesn't leave stuff in the zone, you actually 472 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 2: might get some good swinging whiffs. I don't think it's 473 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 2: like the worst matchup. It's something that I'd be willing 474 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 2: to potentially stream. And if Valdez's injury is going to 475 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 2: be long term, yeah, I mean, you know, I see 476 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 2: the spaghetti people are putting spaghetti in there. Spencer Arietti 477 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 2: is gonna have a good opportunity for the rest. 478 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 1: Of the year. 479 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 2: So I think he's in like streamable option. He's not 480 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 2: like the must pick up of that pick. 481 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: He's not in that Christian Javier Hunter Brown grouping of 482 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: arms just because some year just because your team's number 483 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: one pitching prospect of getting got to consider which guys 484 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 1: have already moved up. You know what the rest of 485 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,199 Speaker 1: that grouping looks like. Number one doesn't mean number one 486 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 1: on everybody's team. You know, I'll just keep that in mind. Okay, 487 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 1: Streamable probably go blue, says lol Joey p Aka sun Suit. 488 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: I have read The Art of War. 489 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 2: I have two. 490 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: Actually, it's an excellent book. You should read it. Game Outside. 491 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 2: I've read like five or six books, and that happens. 492 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: To be one of them. It's a great book. Also 493 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 1: from the rookie lookie Oscar Colass twenty five year old 494 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: had some issues last year, a little bit abouting three 495 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: two twenty one. He's going to get a call for 496 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: Washington and Nolan Chanelle got over four two strikeouts. Doesn't 497 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: look great. What are your thoughts on him maybe losing 498 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: playing time to Drury or Son? 499 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. I mean he's also coming 500 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 2: off of a thirty game on bass streak. He's a 501 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 2: big contact hitter, finally got the ball in the air. 502 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,879 Speaker 2: A little bit like he doesn't have the traditions. I 503 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 2: always think like James Loney whenever I think of a 504 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 2: first baseman who hits like fifteen homers and is a 505 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:31,400 Speaker 2: higher contact guy. 506 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: Oh there's a name I haven't out about. How I know? 507 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: Obi Wan Kenobi felt in Star Wars in episode four. 508 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: There's a name I've not thought about and quite some time. 509 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 2: I think he's fine. I think he'll just move down 510 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 2: to the lineup. He's not going anywhere, but I think 511 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 2: he can regain that through and he's still a rookie, 512 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 2: you know. I mean, remember this time last year, this 513 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 2: guy was hitting in college of baseball. You know, that's 514 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 2: how quick he moved. He literally played like a month 515 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 2: in the minor leagues that came up to the majors. 516 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 2: So I think he's going to have a pretty good runway, 517 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:00,479 Speaker 2: all right. 518 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 1: Phill Up has asked us like three times, what do 519 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:03,120 Speaker 1: I do with RINGUIFO? 520 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 2: I don't know. 521 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: What can you do? 522 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 2: What are I mean? You could probably move on. I 523 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 2: don't think ring gifo is a must have or anything 524 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 2: like that. Pinning your league, pinning what's out there, you 525 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 2: could probably easily move on. He he is proven to 526 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 2: at best be a streamable option right now. He hasn't 527 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,919 Speaker 2: hung anything long term. It's disappointing, but yeah, you can 528 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 2: move on if there's decent options on the wire. 529 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: Is Coloss a pick up for you? Not really? 530 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 2: I'm not a big Oscar Coloskay, It's nice to see 531 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 2: in the miners he was hitting pretty well. I will 532 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 2: say maybe the most encouraging thing is the strikeout numbers 533 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 2: dramatically down in that short stint twelve percent in TRIPA. 534 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 1: That's a huge time is going to be available for him. 535 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, there, they. 536 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 2: Got a lot of guys. I mean, you know what though, 537 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 2: I say, like they got a lot of minor league guys, 538 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 2: but they got no major league players anymore. It's Aloys 539 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 2: hurt and Roberts hurt, and they're all down, you know, 540 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 2: some combo of like Dominic Fletcher and all them. Yeah, 541 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 2: maybe maybe not like a deep league, but I'm probably 542 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 2: just paying attention to Colas that I am picking him up. 543 00:23:58,160 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: All right, Fair enough there, let's get to three up 544 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: in three down from yesterday. Of course, Chris Morrell two 545 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 1: for four Grand Slam, Good day for him. Merle, how 546 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: about Merle? Is Merle Kelly? Like man? I call him 547 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: Merle because I could do Merle, because that's what we do. 548 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: So people turning in the first time going, what is 549 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 1: he saying? It's Meryl Kelly, but we call him Murle 550 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: around these parks. 551 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 2: Did you know I found out Meryl went to my 552 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 2: high school? Did I tell you that? No? Did he 553 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 2: read any books there or probably read a lot more 554 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 2: than me? 555 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 1: Maybe? I mean, the bar's pretty low, Merril Kelly's six innings, 556 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: two runs. I mean again, I know it's the Rockies, 557 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:34,120 Speaker 1: but still he's like one of these great underrated players 558 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 1: every season these last three years. I feel like Kelly's 559 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: just been this guy just goes out there, has good 560 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 1: starts and nobody cares. I care, but like nobody seems 561 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 1: to really give him the credit deserves. This is the 562 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 1: guy that I almost picked yesterday, and I'm mad now 563 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: because he got eight strikeouts. Nadi Valdi eight k's, one earned, 564 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 1: five and two thirds against the A's. Unfortunately got no decision, 565 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: but still a very good start. Hus Young Kim not 566 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: a good day at the plate, the hat trick three strikeouts, 567 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,159 Speaker 1: oh for against the the Cubs. On Tuesday, Louis Varlin 568 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 1: gave up seven hits, six earned over five and a 569 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: loss to the Dodgers. So we'll give them a pass 570 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: because it's the Dodgers, but again not the best start 571 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 1: and Logan Allen five runs, seven hits, four innings, no 572 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: decision against the White Sox. So not always the best 573 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: of times there necessarily, but it is the best of 574 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: times around here because we're giving away free stuff.

What do you think when 594 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,439 Speaker 1: is Memorial Day the last weekend in May. He's supposed 595 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 1: to be back June first, I say we get him 596 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: before Memorial Day. That guy's nuts. 597 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:22,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I told I told you in spring one 598 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 2: of those things he was throwing full field tosses where 599 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 2: de Gram was like, like, he looked great, he looks spry, 600 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 2: he looked healthy. Arm was flinging. I think he's gonna 601 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 2: be back in mid May, and I think they've said 602 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,479 Speaker 2: as much. I think they said mid May is going 603 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 2: to be the target date. 604 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 1: I believe it. 605 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 2: They're gonna want it. When you got guys like John 606 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 2: Gray in that rotation, getting Max Scherzier back, you know, 607 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 2: with haste is important. 608 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: He's interesting when you know we go here, we go Kyle, 609 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 1: you know, talking about Trout to the Orioles. That was 610 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: a conversation we were having last week. 611 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 2: That was your thing, it's my thing. 612 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: I mean, if he keeps playing like this, if you're 613 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 1: the Orioles, don't I mean You've got so much depth 614 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: to make this move. I mean, I'd love it. I 615 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: think I think that's your all in move of you 616 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 1: of the Orioles, right, Yeah, I don't know what burns 617 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: why not. 618 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,479 Speaker 2: I don't know what the move looks like though. Colton Kowser, 619 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 2: by the way, I tweeted about this, Colton Kowser is 620 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 2: on the uptick. If you're in, you know, I liking it. 621 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 2: Like ten team leagues are kind of tough, maybe even 622 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,680 Speaker 2: some twelves. But I'll tell you, man, if you have 623 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 2: the ability to pick up Colton Kowser. He is playing 624 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 2: against rities right now, crush two doubles yesterday. He's getting 625 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 2: more playing time as Austin Hayes struggles. I am all 626 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 2: about Colton Kowser. All of this to say, like, if 627 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 2: you were theoretically to put like a Mic Trout in 628 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 2: a lineup that's got you know, Mullins and Kowser and 629 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 2: then you got Santander, that's maybe d hing. I mean, 630 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 2: it would be a crazy, crazy path. We'll look back 631 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 2: and be like, can you believe Austin Hayes, Ramon Urrius 632 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,640 Speaker 2: and Jorge Mateo were in the lineup and now we've 633 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 2: got Trout and Jackson Holiday like they could do some stuff. 634 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 2: I just don't know if they'll feel if they'll feel 635 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 2: the need to push out. 636 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: I thinks more of the need probably, But man, what 637 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: a luxury to have, like also to have a veteran 638 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: guy out there too. I just want to see Mike Trout. 639 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 1: First of all, I want to see him on the 640 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,120 Speaker 1: East Coast. Second all, I want to seehim in the playoffs. 641 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: Like that's all I want. I want my Trout to 642 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 1: be in the playoffs. He just it's very frustrating, by 643 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 1: the way, you know what else I want? Again, this 644 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: is old Joe for a moment. The new jerseys. Am 645 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: I the only person who thinks it's hard to see 646 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: the names on the back of the jerseys? 647 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 2: Like on TV all that people are tweeting about trash 648 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 2: garbage these jerseys. There's a great video You're. 649 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: Hard to see and I don't have problems seeing like 650 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: I don't, so I just I don't.
