We put a pounding on them. 0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:37.639 The playoffs start next week and that's where things get 0:00:37.680 --> 0:00:39.440 real serious at the end of the day. How was 0:00:39.479 --> 0:00:41.800 your weekend, buddy, anything fun going on with you? 0:00:42.360 --> 0:00:45.839 Yeah. We had Mama Welsh my mom birthday yesterday, so 0:00:45.880 --> 0:00:48.960 we celebrated the Mama Welsh birthday, which was a great time. 0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:52.199 And we did a classic. We did a movie classic 0:00:52.200 --> 0:00:54.600 when we rewatched Missus Doubtfire which. 0:00:54.600 --> 0:00:58.360 Help Is on the Way, Help Us on the Way 0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:03.160 exactly movie. It completely holds up. It's hilarious, it's fantastic, 0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:10.040 it's cool. I mean, it's just Robin Williams, National Treasure 0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:14.520 Actor human, just a pas saying. Guy Robin Williams, by 0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:16.319 the way, that when they did those HBO or Showtime 0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:18.080 a couple of years, really really good stuff there. 0:01:18.080 --> 0:01:20.080 Oh, I don't think I've seen it. Robin Williams was 0:01:20.200 --> 0:01:23.200 like my I had two idols growing up. I had 0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:26.840 a sports idol, Jerry Rice was my was my sports titol, 0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:28.959 and Robin Williams. I grew up in the Bay Area, 0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:31.640 both Bay Area people, and I was telling my kids 0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:35.840 when I was nine or ten. This came. Missondelfair came 0:01:35.880 --> 0:01:37.200 out in ninety five, and I think it was right 0:01:37.240 --> 0:01:40.680 after this I wrote Robin Williams. I wrote him a letter. 0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:43.759 I don't know how I got stuff. And then within 0:01:44.120 --> 0:01:48.640 six months he wrote back and I had a picture 0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:52.760 and it wasn't like you know, he wrote a personalized 0:01:52.800 --> 0:01:55.559 thing to me and autographed it. We don't know where 0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:58.480 it is and it is the devastating thing on the planet. 0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:00.400 I wish I had it. It would be my most 0:02:00.480 --> 0:02:03.960 cherished thing ever because I adored and loved Robin Williams, 0:02:04.000 --> 0:02:05.480 but it was it was just a cool thing to 0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:07.280 be able to say he wrote back, he was so 0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:08.480 nice to. 0:02:08.520 --> 0:02:09.119 Find that same. 0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:12.000 I mean, that's incredible rob you know, tell me watch 0:02:12.040 --> 0:02:14.440 that documentary. He was a fascinating human, such a great actor. 0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:17.200 The Fisher King, to me is his ultimate acting performance. 0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:19.000 That is just a fantastic movie. 0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:23.440 But there were some fantastic performances or fantastic performances. I 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:24.840 don't there. 0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:28.400 Was some fantastic performances out there from the baseball fields 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:28.920 this weekend. 0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:31.840 Juan Soto and the Yankees again part of it to 0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:34.600 run Homer for him off Duvall on the ninth. Uh. 0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:38.800 And of course Aaron Judge two singles, walked twice, stole 0:02:38.840 --> 0:02:41.959 a pair of bases. I mean that one two punch man. 0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:46.080 It's it's uh pretty stunning. The Yankees just continue to 0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:49.120 just pound it on teams. The Dodgers also spoiler alert, 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:53.320 good at baseball yesterday. Gavin Stone win over the Rockies. Yes, 0:02:53.400 --> 0:02:56.320 the Rockies, but whatever. Gavin Stone's been really solid this year. 0:02:56.520 --> 0:02:59.080 You know, we were going into this Dodgers' rotation. 0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:00.480 You know you had to weight on. 0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:03.920 Walker, Bueller, Bobby Miller got hurt, Kershaw was gonna be 0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:07.480 months away, Yamamoto was very expensive. Glass Night was gonna 0:03:07.520 --> 0:03:10.520 like right the perfect spot there this year. But then 0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:12.919 there was Gavin Stone, who was free emichehn right. We 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:14.800 all thought maybe Emmachihn going into the year might get 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:18.360 that fifth starter job. But Gavin Stone has really he 0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:20.000 stepped up his game. And I know last year you 0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:22.160 were and a guy that was kind of not into 0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:24.760 Gavin Stone. Has he turned the worm for you? 0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:25.079 Well? 0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:28.239 Yeah, I mean one of the reasons was like its 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:32.600 massive and had massive control problems. And the pitch that 0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:35.000 he got everything done is the changeup. He's a high 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:37.800 end change up guy. Last year forty one percent rate 0:03:37.840 --> 0:03:40.600 on the change up. This year thirty five percent. The 0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:44.560 batting average against is exponentially better. My problem always with 0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:48.720 him is he's a multifaceted those four different pitches double 0:03:48.720 --> 0:03:51.760 digit percentage of the time, but it's still the change 0:03:51.840 --> 0:03:54.840 up that's getting stuff done. The difference this year in 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:59.200 what's happening is he was heavy four scene last year 0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:02.400 with some sing. This year he's gone a lot more 0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:04.480 heavy sinker, and this is what's been the positive. A 0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:08.000 change of in a sinker some similar characteristics. He's giving 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:11.560 up weak contact thirty one percent hard hit rate. That's 0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:15.200 incredibly low. That's a really good low barrel rate. That's solid, 0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:17.960 but his cas are still not good, and he still 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:20.120 walks a decent amount. By the way, he also has 0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:23.600 a full run higher differential between his actual e raate 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:26.160 and his expected So things have gotten so much better. 0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:27.640 And it's weird because I felt like you and I 0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:31.039 got all these Gavin Stone questions, should I pick this 0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:34.080 guy that guy? This guy Stone has been awesome, and 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.560 you have the support of the Dodgers, and you know, 0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:40.200 expected stats be damned all that. But I do feel 0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:43.120 his floor is a little bit different because he doesn't 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:45.960 have the strikeouts that are going to cover him. He 0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:48.320 doesn't have a low walk rate that's going to cover him. 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:50.839 It's just he has to be this efficient all the 0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:53.320 time to keep up these numbers. So roll it out, 0:04:53.440 --> 0:04:56.159 keep going with it. He might continue to do this, 0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:59.000 but it's a sub twenty percent k percentage pitcher with 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:02.760 an almost double digit walk percentage, and it's all change up. 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:04.680 It is all change up, so the league's gonna adjust 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:06.680 at some point. So I'm a little bit weary about 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:09.320 him continuing. All year. He's been awesome. 0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:13.520 He really has also awesome in that game too. Freddy 0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:18.200 Freeman going yard, hitting a home run. Bookie Betts leadoff 0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:20.719 home run in that game too. So look, the Dodgers 0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:22.800 are just, you know again, pound of the teams. I 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:25.360 still like the Phillies in the series against the Dodgers, though, 0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:27.839 I still do. I just think Philly's gonna be a 0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:29.160 tough place for the Dodgers to play. 0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:33.840 And I think that Philly's rotation is frankly just more 0:05:33.880 --> 0:05:36.000 dependable and ranger. 0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:38.680 That's a pretty devastating. 0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:41.400 I'm just saying right now, and I'm looking. There's time 0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:43.320 to acquire somebody else if they want to, or get 0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:45.920 more bullpen, help to more specialization, whatever you want to do. 0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:48.240 There's plenty of time for the fighting Phills. More on 0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:52.039 them later in the show. Brandon Fott pitched six innings, 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:54.200 struck out eight guys, walk two batters. 0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:56.240 I made a trade for Fot. Actually this week you 0:05:56.279 --> 0:05:57.400 and I were talking about my home. 0:05:57.760 --> 0:05:58.679 Was it that one you tweeted? 0:05:58.720 --> 0:05:59.160 It was? 0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:01.640 It was where on Aconya and everybody else on my 0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:04.000 team got hurt in the last two weeks. And it's 0:06:04.000 --> 0:06:06.000 a keeper league, And I'm like, you know what, I 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:07.919 was on a two year plan anyway, just start selling 0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:11.880 off pieces. So forty dollars Monaga became seven dollars fat 0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:14.279 and one dollar Kobe Mayo, and I think I loved. 0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:16.880 That trade for you, by the way, I loved that trade. 0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:19.080 I know you were a little bit about doing it, 0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:21.520 but I really liked how that went out. By the way, 0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:25.320 when we get into the rookie lookie, literally just like happened. 0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:26.680 I think as we were going, I just got a 0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:31.240 text about it. There is a Oriole prospect call up 0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:33.920 that just happened. It's not Kobe Mayo who you just got, 0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:36.680 by the way, because he's still injured recovering from the 0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:38.880 fractured ribs. But we will talk about that. 0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:40.840 Or is it this guy? 0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:41.920 It is not that guy? 0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:44.719 Oh, gee whiz oh man. Remember when everybody thought I 0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:46.720 was really good at baseball? Gee whiz man. 0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:49.599 Now that was the coverage of my of my video 0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:52.640 last week too, was being like, hey, Jackson Holidays not 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:54.520 getting called up. I didn't mean to derail it, but 0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:57.520 I like that trade because Emanaga wasn't capable. Really for 0:06:57.560 --> 0:07:00.039 you at over forty dollars, you get fought at a 0:07:00.120 --> 0:07:03.920 incredibly low price and fought. He has just been good 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:06.599 on one of the biggest differentials again Eri to x 0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:08.640 c ra but in the opposite direction. Here's a four 0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:13.080 three to two era, a two seventy nine expected with 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:16.880 an almost twenty four percent k percentage under five walk percentage. 0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:19.920 Yeah, I mean I made the trade. I did a year. 0:07:20.040 --> 0:07:22.119 I did a deeper dive on Fodd and all the numbers. 0:07:22.200 --> 0:07:24.280 It's funny because like all the as you were saying, 0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:27.400 all the xcras were better, uh, you know, strikeout rates 0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:29.960 down a little bit year over year. But I kind 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:31.840 of look at that Welsh is more like he is 0:07:31.920 --> 0:07:33.320 evolving as a picture a little bit, and I think 0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:35.400 over time that's going to raise back up. And look, 0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:36.920 you know, whenever we bring up fought. By the way, 0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:40.440 I've not seen Carlos live in the chat since this moment, 0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:41.840 so I. 0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:44.440 Got mean, honestly, you completely even forgot about this. 0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:46.240 I have Carlos. 0:07:45.760 --> 0:07:50.240 He ran off, he came in and he in like Connor. 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:53.560 He walked in like Connor on me, and then if 0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:54.640 like a knockout punch. 0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:57.559 Yeah. By the way, here's a question. 0:07:57.840 --> 0:07:59.760 I'm not questioned so much like I saw over the 0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:02.040 week again, Mike Tyson, Fight's not happening now. 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:04.760 I'm so upset. I was really looking forward to. 0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:07.880 The Jake Paul, Mike Tyson, Yeah, I got owned or 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:10.600 whatever because Mike Tyson's old and he's got a hernia 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:11.920 or I don't know, something like that. 0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:14.280 I know he like Tyson got hurt or something. 0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:16.360 No, I don't. I think it's an ulcer he's dealing 0:08:16.360 --> 0:08:17.320 with or something like that. 0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:19.120 Getting old man, I. 0:08:19.080 --> 0:08:21.720 Heard a stupid I don't. I can't aid. I can't 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:23.880 like Jake Paul right now because I get the ulpha 0:08:23.960 --> 0:08:24.360 right now. 0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:27.400 Is really completely dispectful low of peece in my body. 0:08:27.920 --> 0:08:29.720 Everybody's got a plan until you get an also in 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:30.200 your faith. 0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:33.120 I know it's I corrected myself. Everybody I said ulcer 0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:34.040 after I said hernia. 0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:36.319 Somebody wanted to fill in for him. I'm trying to 0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:37.800 remember who that was, so I don't know. 0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:42.040 In the chat, someone dig up Carlos from the Shallow 0:08:42.040 --> 0:08:45.960 Grave that Welsh would make Carlos, WE love you, Carlos. 0:08:45.520 --> 0:08:45.880 Come back. 0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:49.280 That's that small grave is also all Corbyn Carroll, all 0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:50.280 my Corbyn Carroll takes her. 0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:52.480 And that's how here's an interesting one, Steven. In the 0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:54.920 chat is the question fought for Kyle Harrison. I dig 0:08:55.000 --> 0:08:57.560 fought and I have zero. I got zero chill on 0:08:57.600 --> 0:08:59.360 this one, like one hundred percent. 0:08:59.360 --> 0:09:00.840 I mean you even said you were like, hey, the 0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:04.160 K's they're actually up year over here, but they just 0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:06.720 didn't take like a big bounce up. He's just become 0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:09.959 so much more efficient. This is why, I mean, six 0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:12.679 weeks ago we were talking about this, and this is 0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:15.600 why whatever it was three weeks ago, Carlos was, for 0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:17.840 whatever his reason, he was killing me about it because 0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:19.920 people just didn't buy into the stuff. But if you 0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:22.280 actually watch Brandon Fott, you can see how much more 0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:25.480 effective he is. His sweeper is a dominant pitch thirty 0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:28.080 seven percent with rate, and he has just become more 0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:30.440 consistent in being able to throw the four seam and 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:32.840 the sinker and they're hitting different parts of the zone. 0:09:33.200 --> 0:09:35.480 He's a great pitcher and the walk rate makes him 0:09:35.520 --> 0:09:37.880 even better. So fots around my friends. 0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:40.720 Fought's a free agent and King's king pick him up 0:09:40.720 --> 0:09:41.880 if he's a league? 0:09:41.920 --> 0:09:42.560 What are you doing? 0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:45.400 H and cousin Donni's saying it's a publicity fight. I 0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:48.480 know it's a publicity fight. I still want to watch it. Still, 0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:50.719 I do. I want to see Mike because I don't 0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:52.680 think you could tell Mike Tyson turn it off. 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:54.400 I think there's people you can't. 0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:56.800 I think you put Mike Tyson in that thing and 0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:59.000 you're like, Mike, this is just like you know, you 0:09:59.120 --> 0:10:01.920 just gotta dance around for a couple of round, think yeah, sure, sure, okay, 0:10:01.920 --> 0:10:03.679 I'm good, dance round. And then he gets in the ring. 0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:06.439 He's like my fouth ferocious and he just and that's 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:08.800 it and he just gonna whip on somebody Like I 0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:11.080 don't think Mike, I. 0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:13.439 Don't think Mike Tyson's capable of turning the switch off. 0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:15.960 Like I just know. I agree, But it's my only 0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:16.800 thing about Dyson. 0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:18.560 I don't know, Like I did want to see him 0:10:18.600 --> 0:10:21.319 go Berzerko, But do you think, like maybe there's something 0:10:21.360 --> 0:10:23.000 to this. Do you think this is part of the 0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:25.839 bit or he like he really no, No, I'm sure 0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:28.360 it's sold already. It's been hyped all over the place. 0:10:28.400 --> 0:10:29.920 So fought was good to tell. 0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.199 Marte two three for three with two homers in that game. 0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:34.480 Also good good day for the Diamondbacks, good day for 0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:37.240 Gunner Henderson three for three with a homer, two walks 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:38.120 for him. 0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:40.640 Not a good weekend for Chris Sale against the A's 0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:45.600 eight earned runs. Uh Welsh, What happened to Chris Sale 0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:46.960 against the A's? 0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:50.120 What so one funny thing? 0:10:50.200 --> 0:10:52.040 You know, you know Vegas made some money on you know, 0:10:52.080 --> 0:10:54.440 people were like, oh, give me the over on this, 0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:56.880 and you know, like he got he must have gotten. 0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:59.200 He smashed wagers. 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:03.280 He was talking about my buddy's Dennis Hidler with SIDS grabs. 0:11:03.400 --> 0:11:06.319 He's actually he's known if anyone knows Dennis. There was 0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:08.400 an article written up about him in The Athletic a 0:11:08.400 --> 0:11:10.720 couple of years ago at his relationship with Chris Sale, 0:11:10.840 --> 0:11:14.080 like Chris and him have worked together for like Sales 0:11:14.240 --> 0:11:16.680 entire career, and we were talking about Sale this whole 0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:19.439 time and how crazy and how dominant. And then of 0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:23.520 all the starts, the A's, who have one of the 0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:27.120 worst K percentages in baseball, are just one of those 0:11:27.160 --> 0:11:30.599 funky teams that ended up getting to him. Sometimes right handers, 0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:32.640 as Dennis was talking with me about, sometimes right handers 0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:35.280 can get to him. But here's the deal. You look 0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:38.480 at Sale and you look at the overall numbers, they're 0:11:38.520 --> 0:11:42.720 elite of elite. This was an absolute anomaly. It's it's 0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:45.880 the only the second start this entire year where he's 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.600 given up more than three earned runs. He's been an 0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:52.000 absolute strikeout king, and his numbers still look phenomenal. It's 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:54.880 a total blip on the radar. I buy nothing of it. 0:11:55.400 --> 0:11:57.360 You do want to watch because sale can get into 0:11:57.360 --> 0:12:00.720 these like sometimes these little downticks. But it's the highest 0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:03.120 K percentage he's had in five years, the lowest walk 0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:06.920 percentage of his career, the best second or third best 0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:09.400 expected era of his entire career. He's been awesome. 0:12:09.800 --> 0:12:11.600 Anyone. I'm not gonna take too proud of it. 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:13.920 I'm like, yeah, like, don't take too much out of it. 0:12:14.000 --> 0:12:16.000 I think that's what we're saying. It's a bad start 0:12:16.040 --> 0:12:19.239 to happen, but what it was the a's so that hurts. 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:19.480 A little bit. 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:23.240 Speaking of good things, though, I was looking here for 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:28.400 the month of May positive eighty units for me on 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:32.760 the ROI and last week thirty up, so finishing strong. 0:12:32.800 --> 0:12:34.560 A month of May started out rough for me, but 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:38.000 really strong ROI for me. Follow us over at bettingpros 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:41.440 dot com. Slash wels slash shoe Baseball is tough, man, 0:12:41.480 --> 0:12:43.640 but I am. I got the little fire symbol on 0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:44.439 my app. 0:12:44.559 --> 0:12:45.880 So that's good. 0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:47.880 I which is good. Otherwise I got to go to 0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:49.600 the doctor. If things are on fire, you know. 0:12:49.760 --> 0:12:52.240 Yeah, I'm trying to get that fire back. We're going 0:12:52.280 --> 0:12:53.679 to start back in June. I took a little bit 0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:54.960 for the weekend. 0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:57.280 South African g telling us fought is only rostered in 0:12:57.320 --> 0:13:02.679 twenty eight point six percent of ESPN leagues. Ah, casuals. 0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:07.200 All the casuals, folks, That's what it is. Let's continue 0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:11.760 on here. So those were the headlines. Some other headlines 0:13:11.800 --> 0:13:16.280 too about some guys going back to the farm. It's 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:19.800 you know, when you're when your dog is not doing 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:22.280 well and your parents are telling the young kid that 0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:25.200 you know, we're gonna have to send, you know, Scrappy 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:27.439 to the farm where he's gonna live out his days 0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:31.720 and all that barrel Yeller, Camiro Yell Torkasen Spencer Torcas 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:33.400 is gonna have to go live on a farm for 0:13:33.600 --> 0:13:34.200 in Toledo. 0:13:34.679 --> 0:13:36.880 Going to a farm in Toledo for a few weeks. 0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:39.800 He's gonna meet some other baseball players, have a good 0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:42.560 old time, maybe you know, hit some fung gos. But 0:13:42.679 --> 0:13:44.840 he is going back to the miners. And it looks 0:13:44.880 --> 0:13:48.600 like Edward Julian is too, which hard l for me 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:49.200 on this one. 0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:50.800 This one really upsets me. Julian. 0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:52.600 I feel like, you know, he had that power spike 0:13:52.760 --> 0:13:56.120 in April, and that I gotta say concerned me because 0:13:56.120 --> 0:13:57.439 I was like, I really don't want him to be 0:13:57.480 --> 0:13:58.960 these guys to start trying to hit home runs, and 0:13:58.960 --> 0:14:00.520 I feel like he became what he is trying to 0:14:00.559 --> 0:14:03.360 hit him runs. So Torkosen going down to the farm, 0:14:03.440 --> 0:14:06.760 Julian going down to the farm. Thoughts on this Welsh 0:14:06.920 --> 0:14:08.640 talk to me about when we might see both of 0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:09.320 them back here? 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:11.520 Do we see them in July fourth? After the fourth? 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:14.800 I mean, I want to say, I feel like Torklsen 0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:17.520 could be back. You felt like there's a little bit 0:14:17.559 --> 0:14:21.040 of a turn starting to happen, but he just needs 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:23.880 he just needs to start hitting for contact. I believe 0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:28.080 they brought up justin Henry Molloy, who you know, multifaceted 0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:30.960 guy that they can kind of move around. How don 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:32.760 be honest with you. I kind of think it's more 0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:35.640 likely that we see Torkalsen before Edward. I'm not sure 0:14:35.680 --> 0:14:40.080 we see Edward Julian anytime soon. Thirty four percent k percentage. 0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:42.920 He had good barreling numbers, but he made no contact 0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:46.000 and I still hold it part of hearts man. Why 0:14:46.040 --> 0:14:48.960 that guy doesn't get aggressive in early counts. He is 0:14:49.000 --> 0:14:52.040 the most passive hitter in early counts and then becomes 0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:54.640 hyper aggressive when he gets two strikes. And it's a 0:14:54.680 --> 0:14:57.880 horrible recipe. I don't care about your twelve percent walk rate. 0:14:58.400 --> 0:15:00.520 They got too many options there as well. Guys like 0:15:00.600 --> 0:15:02.880 Cashow has been good. You've got brooks Lee who is 0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:05.720 coming back into the miners. He's gonna be an option 0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:08.560 to come up soon. They have too many options for 0:15:08.640 --> 0:15:11.280 a guy like this to be bad. So I would 0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:14.760 say July first, Torklsen is back. I don't think Edward 0:15:14.840 --> 0:15:19.080 Julian is unless there's a major, major triple A change. 0:15:19.120 --> 0:15:20.680 We're gonna say this for later in the show. But 0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:22.640 Jerry brought up in the chat. Yes, Garrett Cole is 0:15:22.640 --> 0:15:24.720 pitching in Summerset tomorrow. You'd love to go see him. 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:26.160 I don't know if you do, Jerry, and I'm gonna 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:28.280 tell you why. Welsh was saying, Hey, you gonna go 0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:30.160 see Garret Coley's texting me, and I said, yeah, I 0:15:30.160 --> 0:15:32.520 think I might go do that, Like I got some 0:15:32.560 --> 0:15:34.040 stuff going on, but you know what, I could probably 0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:36.040 pop over to ballpark. He's probably only gonna pitch what 0:15:36.120 --> 0:15:38.000 like two three innings of the most anyway around, I 0:15:38.040 --> 0:15:38.600 would say three. 0:15:38.680 --> 0:15:40.080 Yeah, all right. So I was like, all right, you know, 0:15:40.120 --> 0:15:42.440 it's early night. Whatever, I'll go do that now. 0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:44.880 Normally I could sit in the you know, very front 0:15:44.960 --> 0:15:47.400 right behind home plate for about eighteen fifty I know 0:15:47.480 --> 0:15:49.440 this because I just did it a couple. 0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:49.720 Of weeks ago. 0:15:50.400 --> 0:15:52.520 Went to the ball game, saw the fireworks. It was 0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:54.840 great time, had a great time. Amazing seats right on 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:55.440 the home plate. 0:15:55.720 --> 0:15:59.040 Set Welsh some video of Spencer Jones. You how much 0:15:59.040 --> 0:16:03.440 tickets are tonight for this game? Eighty dollars? Eighty dollars? 0:16:03.680 --> 0:16:08.400 We don't watch Garrett Cole for three innings right here, buddy, right? 0:16:09.640 --> 0:16:09.720 No? 0:16:10.120 --> 0:16:12.600 What eighty dollars for three innings of minor league game? 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:14.000 Garrett Cole? It's absurd. 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:15.720 And you know what, they're gonna get hate price gouch. 0:16:15.760 --> 0:16:18.120 They're gonna get hate the price gouging that happens with 0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:18.840 this type of stuff. 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:21.560 Job. Somerset Patriots is a family friendly place. 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:25.280 They have funnel cake and dipping dots and helmet Sundays 0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:27.960 and they have a great environment. They do spinn and 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:29.680 puke where people are on the bats and they're running 0:16:29.720 --> 0:16:31.800 around and they falling all over to place. They do 0:16:31.840 --> 0:16:35.280 fun things, they do giveaways. It's a great place. They 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:37.680 do fireworks at night. And now you can start to 0:16:37.720 --> 0:16:39.920 be eighty dollars to watch Garrett Cole play three innings. 0:16:39.960 --> 0:16:43.360 It's absurd. Come on, sumrcept Patriot, be better, as my 0:16:43.440 --> 0:16:44.080 daughter would. 0:16:43.880 --> 0:16:46.600 Say, to get Spencer Jones and maybe Jason Domingez, which 0:16:46.640 --> 0:16:47.200 is pretty cool. 0:16:47.480 --> 0:16:48.880 What we need is that's the problem. 0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:50.000 I was like, you know what, there's a lot of 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:51.960 guys worth seeing, right, I could go there, get a 0:16:52.000 --> 0:16:53.920 lot of footage for the Welsh. 0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:55.400 Come on, we. 0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:57.720 Gotta get you like the media pass, and then we 0:16:57.760 --> 0:17:00.240 need to get you ingratiated with that team.
