Spring training, I always 72 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: say doesn't mean much except for the people that it 73 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: means everything for and for some guys it just means 74 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 1: a little bit more in terms of proving you're healthy, 75 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: proving you are back on track, or also whether or 76 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: not you're coming away in the spring into the regular 77 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: season with a job that's very important. So Welsh, give 78 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 1: me three guys that are actually on the rise after 79 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: spring training that you feel really good about where their 80 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: directions going as we head into the regular season. 81 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I just want to like add on to 82 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 3: what you're saying. Spring training is tough because like the 83 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 3: teaching moment for all of us is like, don't fall 84 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 3: into what happens in spring positively or negatively. But spring 85 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 3: does become narrative based, and I would totally acknowledge that, 86 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 3: like everybody, like the joke meme going on right now 87 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,119 Speaker 3: in the fantasy baseball space is like, you know, hey, 88 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 3: spring stats don't mean anything except when it improves my 89 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 3: narrative except for this guy that it does, so like 90 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 3: I acknowledge that, but listen, it does go both ways. 91 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 3: There are guys that are gonna show with signs in 92 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 3: spring that carry over and amazing things happen. There are 93 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 3: guys that are going to struggle in spring that's gonna 94 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 3: be like completely out of our brains once the season starts. 95 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 3: So this is tough. This is narrative base I completely 96 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: acknowledge it. So here were three players I kind of 97 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 3: painstakingly was trying to pick between because, like I said, 98 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 3: there are plenty of guys that put up just insane numbers. 99 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 3: So who do you pick from? So my number one, 100 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 3: I'm going over to Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher who just 101 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 3: made the team, Jared Jones. These are the type of 102 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 3: guys that I'm really hyper focused on. I got Lucky 103 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 3: bog Me and I are doing the Shares episode coming 104 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 3: up here soon on itl and he said one of 105 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 3: my highest shares was Jared Jones. And he's like, you're 106 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 3: gonna look pretty smart because I got him in very 107 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 3: early drafts, and Jared Jones is coming off of what 108 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 3: is a pretty great spring. The greatness is he did 109 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 3: not give up a single run in spring over sixteen innings. 110 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:52,359 Speaker 2: That's pretty crazy. 111 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 3: What's not great the strikeout numbers, based on where he 112 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 3: usually is, seemed to be a little bit lower under 113 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 3: nine K pro nine. He was kind of wid and 114 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 3: that's gonna be something I'm a little worried could come 115 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 3: back to haunt him. But he made the opening day roster. 116 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 3: And this is a guy that has popped really in 117 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 3: their minor league system for quite a long time. 118 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 2: He's gonna be in the rotation. This is huge. 119 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 3: There are big strikeout numbers, He's got a good arsenal 120 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 3: of pitches. I think this is a guy that's got 121 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 3: to be picked up pretty much everywhere. Maybe not in 122 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 3: ten team leagues, but I'm putting him on the back 123 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 3: end of my bench. Your drafts are over, okay, maybe 124 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 3: you can try to slide him through on some some 125 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 3: free you know, waiver claim or maybe really low fab 126 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 3: or something like that. I'd like to get him. 127 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 2: Spring did Jared. 128 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 3: Jones really really well, and he's gonna be on the 129 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 3: rotation number two, Colton Kowser with the Baltimore Orioles. How 130 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 3: disappointed was I when Jackson Holiday did not make the 131 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 3: team a lot? 132 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 2: So much so I'm gonna put the I'm gonna put 133 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 2: the excuse. 134 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go print the excuse out all the nonsense 135 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 3: they said, I'm gonna put it behind me for leading off, 136 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 3: and we're gonna just keep that there until. 137 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 2: He gets up there. They're like, oh, you know, he's 138 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 2: got to learn. 139 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 3: He left, he's a little bit more and little lack 140 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 3: of pro experience and okay, learning a new position. He's fine, 141 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 3: he's great in spring. But the guy that was able 142 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 3: to kind of push all of that, it wasn't Kobe Mayo, 143 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 3: wasn't Jackson Holiday, it wasn't Heston Kershed. It was Colton Kowser, 144 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 3: who lost prospect eligibility I. 145 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 2: Think last year, but had six homers. 146 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 3: This spring. He hit three h four and he made 147 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 3: the team. Do we want to read too much into 148 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 3: those home run numbers? No, not necessarily, But here was 149 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 3: the deal. He was a really good contact hitter in 150 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 3: the miners leading up to last season, and then the 151 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 3: power just kind of dissipated. 152 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 2: We're like, oh, Oh, who is this guy? He is 153 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 2: a home run a hitter. 154 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 3: He's a twenty five plus home run guy, and he 155 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 3: now made the roster and he's gonna get time. Colton 156 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 3: Kowser with the Baltimore Ools is another one of those 157 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 3: players I would try to be picking up and Spring 158 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 3: did him well the spring numbers and pushed him into 159 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 3: the starting roster. It's something you should be paying attention to. 160 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 2: I know I was. 161 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 3: And then the final one, I got a picture for you. 162 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 3: How about aj puck aj pukright, phenomenal thirteen innings with 163 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 3: a one three to two Spring Era, fifteen strikeouts, which 164 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 3: equated to a forty one percent K percentage. Why else 165 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 3: do we like this? Well, they're kind of a mess. 166 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 3: That Marlin's rotation is just kind of disastrous. He gets 167 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 3: a longer lease, he added in. Everyone talked about it. 168 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 3: He's got that sweeper slider, he add in, kind of 169 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 3: a more bullet slider, which is just more of a 170 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 3: like it's kind of cutterish. It's just like the sweeper 171 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 3: is coming across his zone. This one has got easy bite, 172 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 3: having two versions of that slider to go along with 173 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 3: that fastball. He's being a little bit more consistent, not 174 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 3: walking at bad rates that he did before, and a 175 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 3: forty one percent k percentage in Spring. Let's not not 176 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 3: pay attention to that. Let's pay attention to the added 177 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 3: repertoire to his arsenal. Let's pay attention to the strikeout numbers. 178 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 3: And now let's throw him in to a team where 179 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 3: he is going to have a longer leash, really because 180 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 3: they have to. Ajpuck is a huge riser from Spring, 181 00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 3: So Colton kwser Aj Puck and throw Jerry Jones. Those 182 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 3: are three guys that were on my Spring rises. 183 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: And another guy too who you know. I mean, we're 184 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: looking at him now. Puck is going to be twenty 185 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: nine years old this year, which is kind of stunning 186 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: to think of that. I feel like there's so many 187 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: years there. We were waiting on him to pop with 188 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: the Oakland A's all these years, it just never really 189 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: came to fruition. Injuries derailed him. The A's organization itself, 190 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: I think you could probably argue derailed him too. But 191 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: he's also a bigger guy. He's a six to seven 192 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: pitcher Welsh and sometimes those guys take a little bit longer. 193 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: I mean, Randy Johnson was a bigger picture. Took him 194 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: a long time to really kind of harness mechanics and 195 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: all that. There's been a lot of guys in that 196 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: ILK that you could say that about, and maybe it's 197 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 1: a late bloomer situation, but you're right, man, Miami needs 198 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: him in the worst way, especially with that Perez injury. 199 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: Max Meyers another guy is who's eventually we're gonna, you know, 200 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: see him. I think too, and we'll see you know. 201 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 1: The Marlins certainly were more competitive last year than people realized, 202 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: but Puck could be a huge addition to this rotation. 203 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 1: They desperately need somebody to step up. Let's take a 204 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: quick break in the action and tell you about Underdog Fantasy. 205 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: MLB draft season is here and the easiest play to 206 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: play fantasy baseball is it Underdog Fantasy.

And now back 222 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 1: to the action. My three guys on the way up. 223 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: As spring training came to a close, Johnny Brido of 224 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: the San Diego Padre is gonna be the fifth starter 225 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: in that Padres rotation, which is deep, folks. I mean 226 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,599 Speaker 1: that is a good rotation. I keep saying it's the 227 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: best rotation in that division, and that's saying something I think. 228 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: But top to bottom, I think it's the deepest one. 229 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be very good so far. 230 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 1: Johnny Brito in spring got enough's a really good start 231 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: thirteen innings, pitched a one point two to three whip, 232 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: a two point zero eight Era sixteen strikeouts, just three walks. 233 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,559 Speaker 1: That's the thing. It really stock out to me when 234 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: it comes to Brito too, and he's got this spot here, 235 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: I don't think it's going anywhere. I think he's gonna 236 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: have a decent leash here in this rotation. So you know, 237 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: Michael King's gonna be the fourth starter. Then he got Darvish, 238 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: Dylan Cec and Joe Musgrove at the top of it. 239 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 1: That is a formidable group. I think the Padres are 240 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: gonna be very competitive. I think we saw a little 241 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: snippet of that last week in the Korean series, and 242 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: the Padres are going to be something you have to 243 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: deal with. Machado is gonna be fine and everything else 244 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: either without Sodo, that lineup still has enough in it 245 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: between Tatise and Machado in the middle of it and 246 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: Away Kim played last year and of course Versusandre Bogart's 247 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: second half very encouraging. So Brio's a guy that I'd 248 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: be picking up everywhere, stashing on my bench two start weeks. 249 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: Brio would absolutely early on if he can continue this pace, 250 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 1: be a guy that I'd throw out there. Frankie Montas 251 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: closed Spring very well, I know you look at the 252 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 1: era when it comes to Mantas, but even though it 253 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: was a little high in the fives in spring, I 254 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: think the thing you take away is over the sixteen innings, 255 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: sixteen strikeouts, five walks, it's a good ratio for him. 256 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: The last start he had was very good. He feels healthy. 257 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: It's not that long ago. It's a few years ago. 258 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: This guy had two hundred strikeouts in the season. Right. 259 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,199 Speaker 1: It's health when it comes to Montas, not talent. I 260 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: think we can all agree on that. We were all 261 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: very excited about him back in twenty twenty one in 262 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: the fantasy community, but unfortunately injuries kind of took its toll. 263 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: We know last year was a lost season for Montas. 264 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 1: We all knew it was a bad idea with the 265 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: Yankees trade for him. We said it on the show, 266 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: and of course is exactly what happened on leading off 267 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: is exactly what we predicted, which is things we're going 268 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: to go south. But now a guy who qualifies Welsh 269 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: in some spots at RP and SP that gives you 270 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: a lot of flexibility. I think Montas is a guy 271 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: worth taking. I took him for a buck in my 272 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 1: last draft, and you know what, it's looking pretty good 273 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: right now because that Reds team also has a chance 274 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: to be very good and could even challenge for that 275 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: Division two. And the last one is another Cincinnati read 276 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: Christian Incarnassion Strand, who why everyone's talking about White Langford 277 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 1: and they should. But Strand is also a guy who 278 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: had a phenomenal Spring five homers, fourteen RBI hit three 279 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 1: point thirty three with a three eighty two OVP and 280 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: a seven eighty four slugging and eleven sixty six ops. 281 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: The guy was tremendous. Now, look, we all know that, 282 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: you know, every young player is always going to have 283 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: ups and downs. He's still a young player. But Welsh 284 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: coming out of Spring the way the Wyatt Langford ADP 285 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: and price just has skyrocketed. I mean, he went for 286 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 1: thirty five dollars in a last salary cap, but we 287 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: got it was crazy thirty five dollars, right. Strand is 288 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: not going for that. Strand is not going to be 289 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 1: that same kind of thing. He is kind of floating 290 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: under the radar, underneath guys on his own team, guys 291 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: like Elie de la Cruz, guys like Matt McLain. You know, 292 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: he is still kind of floating in relative and they 293 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: by comparison, and I don't think you should be I 294 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: think you should take advantage of that while you can. 295 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: So those are three guys going in the right direction, Welsh. 296 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: Give me some guys that maybe are going in the 297 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: wrong direction, or maybe you have concerns about as we 298 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: enter the season because spring trading was not necessarily kind 299 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 1: to them for one reason or another. 300 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 3: Now you know, And I think here's a great question 301 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 3: to throw out too, because I am I'm gonna pick 302 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 3: on myself for this one, my first one. But you 303 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 3: know what are you more prone to focus on with spring? 304 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,839 Speaker 3: Are you more prone to focus on the ups? Or 305 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 3: are you more prone to focus. 306 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 2: On the downs? 307 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 3: I feel like me I tend to put a little 308 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 3: bit more focus on the positives. I feel like publicly 309 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:39,680 Speaker 3: we put more focus on the negatives. I could be 310 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 3: wrong about that, of course, and you know people disagree, 311 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 3: but I feel. 312 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: Like negatives in spring are tough because you have those 313 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 1: moments where a picture is just working on a pity. 314 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: I'm just throwing fastballs today. Kids sure like they don't 315 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: care about results. That's the danger of it. It's the 316 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: little ballparks. It's the uh, you know guys that I've 317 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: never faced before, and you know I can't throw you know, 318 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: high fastballs to you know these guys because they're gonna 319 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: hit out of ballparks or the wind is blowing out 320 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: that day. I mean, there's so many weird variables in 321 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: spring it makes the negatives difficult to gauge. I think, well, 322 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 1: that's the hardest part for me anyway. 323 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I kind of agree, especially when it's like two talent. 324 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 3: So again, this is the here's the balance. You guys 325 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 3: figure out your own balance, so here's mine. So here's 326 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 3: the way I'm picking on myself while also giving a 327 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 3: slight caveat. 328 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 2: I talked a lot about. 329 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 3: Jared Kelnick early on when we were doing early draft 330 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 3: videos that I think he's a guy. 331 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 2: That can break out. 332 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 3: But Jared Kelnick had a poor Spring, and that's saying 333 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 3: it lightly. So number one on this list is going 334 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 3: to be Jared Kelnick, because let's not deny that he 335 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 3: is a faller as far as Spring goes from a 336 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 3: performance standpoint, he hit one thirty five gross, He had 337 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 3: one extra base hit the whole time he was hitting 338 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 3: everything into the ground. 339 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: He had a. 340 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 3: I think it was sixty percent pull rate within over 341 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 3: fifty percent ground ball, So he was just seeing everything 342 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 3: get bad and putting everything on the ground. 343 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 2: Can that balance back? 344 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 3: Yes, I think again the ballpark factor for left handed 345 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 3: hitters is beneficial for Atlanta. Kelnick started to come on 346 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 3: right towards the end of spring. He's gonna steal He's 347 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 3: just got a hit for average. That's a big thing. 348 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 3: But so why if I'm caveating being like, hey, he 349 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 3: could still be kind of good, why am I putting 350 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 3: him on this list? The biggest negative is they brought 351 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 3: in Adam de vall and I think that one stands 352 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 3: out to me of some form of platoon. There's no 353 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 3: longer the DH spot for a guy like Devaal to 354 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 3: go to. That's Marcelo Zuna's, so they're legit could be 355 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 3: platoon situations. This also might not be the worst situation 356 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 3: for Kelnick. If you can get Keelnick away from his 357 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 3: from whatever bad split platoon situations are going on, and 358 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 3: you can just put him in the right one. Maybe 359 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 3: he gets less at bats, but categorically he can put 360 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 3: up big numbers. But I'm not gonna deny that he 361 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 3: didn't have a bad, bad spot down. 362 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: I think all the guys we're going to talk about. 363 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: Down doesn't mean done, It just means down. So understand that. 364 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean you're avoiding these players all together. It 365 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: just means, hey, you got to be aware of the 366 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 1: downside of spring training, as you mentioned, filtering into organization's 367 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: minds too, as they and to make roster moves based 368 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: on how guys were before me in the spring, because 369 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: they need insurance too, just like your fantasy team needs insurance. 370 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 3: And ADP's are going down too. That's the other thing. 371 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 3: Like this spring, here's another one we're not going to deny. 372 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 3: This spring has moved Jared Kelnick's value down dramatically. Yes, 373 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 3: but I'm still taking him now because he's even he's 374 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 3: becoming like free. Before he was like, oh okay, he's in 375 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 3: like the two hundreds twenty twenty. 376 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 2: Now he's becoming free. 377 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 3: I just did a dinger draft and I took him 378 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 3: as like my seventh outfielder because I'm still gonna take 379 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 3: the shots, because I don't want to say spring is everything. 380 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 3: But on the down here's another one. This is like 381 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 3: one of the most popular last pick sleepers. For so 382 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 3: many people. But it's been a spring for him. Matt Walner. 383 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 3: Matt Wallner because he had you know, huge hard hit numbers. 384 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 3: It can barrel the ball. If given the opportunity, he 385 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 3: could be a thirty home run hitter and you're getting 386 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 3: him for free. 387 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 2: All of these things can still be into play. 388 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 3: But he has had a piss poor spring, hitting one 389 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 3: oh seven with a forty percent strikeout rate, which is 390 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 3: so here's the big thing I want to throw out 391 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,199 Speaker 3: to this because it's not that Matt Waldner can't not 392 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 3: be good. But they've got other guys. They've got Willie Castro, 393 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 3: who's a player that stole a ton of bases in 394 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 3: short sample sizes, that can play the infield. 395 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 2: In the outfield, You've got keer Lof still dealing with 396 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 2: the DH spot. 397 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 3: You've got brooks Lee who got sent down and probably 398 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 3: deserved to stay on this team. I'm not saying all 399 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 3: these guys are outfielder's. What I'm saying is is there 400 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 3: are other players ready to snatch up potential opportunities here, 401 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 3: and Matt Waldner may have put himself into a situation 402 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 3: where he did not take the job and run away 403 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 3: with it. 404 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 2: You could see him get into platoons. 405 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 3: Maybe it was always going to be there where Willie 406 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 3: Castro takes that so really really bad spring. 407 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 2: He's on the down. And my final one, I'm going to. 408 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 3: Take it to a pitcher in Eric Fetti, who was 409 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 3: again a very popular sleeper. Scott White, me and him 410 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 3: talk about it a bunch. He was like a Muss 411 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 3: draft guy. Started moving down the list first off the spring, 412 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 3: pretty bad five over five era x FIP was right 413 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 3: into the mid fours. Strikeouts looked really low. Fourteen innings, 414 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 3: he only struck out eight, which is not really what 415 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 3: everybody wanted. Everyone thought he was going to come over 416 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 3: with advanced splitter and everything is going to be amazing. 417 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 3: Here's the other deal. The team did pull the trigger 418 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 3: on getting Dylan Ceeze off of this team. So they're 419 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 3: now going to war with guys like Garrett Crochet, who's 420 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 3: the opening day starter, and you've got Eric Fetti and 421 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 3: you've got Mike Soroka. The rotation doesn't look great. The 422 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 3: offense is still kind of stuttered. Defensively, they're not that great, 423 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 3: and Fetti banged himself up the other day. I think 424 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 3: I don't know if he's going to start the season 425 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 3: on the il, but he's already showing some injury stuff. 426 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 2: This is a plus thirty year old. 427 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 3: Guy whose stuff hasn't looked fantastic in spring, who's getting 428 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 3: a little bit banged up on a horrifically bad team. 429 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 2: I'm picking on low guys, so it's. 430 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 3: Like, who cares about these players that are going up 431 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 3: and down and rising and falling. But Fetti was a 432 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 3: guy who's drafting everywhere. I'm a little tenuous about it now, 433 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 3: and I think we have to consider that the spring 434 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 3: has moved him to maybe not a must draft, to 435 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 3: maybe a player that you're looking to stream if he 436 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 3: gets off to a hot start. 437 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's definitely U Again, you gotta understand the context. 438 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 1: We're not saying these guys are completely avoidable, but we're 439 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 1: saying that spring does matter sometimes for certain guys. I 440 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: think it means a little bit for DJ Lemayhew. That's 441 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: the way I'm going to start here with my guys 442 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: moving down. Not just the injury unfortunately to him, but 443 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: also if you look at what he's done this spring, 444 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 1: or should I say hasn't done this spring? A five 445 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: point thirty five ops and a two twenty two batting 446 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,120 Speaker 1: average spring before the injury. That's not making me feel 447 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:34,719 Speaker 1: warm and fuzzy. I know he's going to hit at 448 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: the top of the Yankee lineup. Theoretically when he's there, 449 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 1: it's healthy. Yeah, but again it's theoretical at this point. 450 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: And then conversely, we've talked a lot about the possibility 451 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: of Vulpi taking that spot from him sooner than later, 452 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,479 Speaker 1: and I continue to beat that drumwells because I think 453 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: it's going to happen to Vulpy. Conversely, had a very 454 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: nice spring showing you all the things you got excited 455 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 1: about Anthony Volpey. I mean, I remember having Eric Cross 456 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: on last year and the year before, and he kept 457 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: and this is a Red Sox guy, just continuing to 458 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,120 Speaker 1: talk about how great Anthony Volpi was, and he would 459 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 1: just go on and on out of and he was right. 460 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 1: And I think that d J. L. Mayhew is a 461 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: player that a lot of people thought, Hey, I'm gonna 462 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 1: take him a He's gonna be the top of the 463 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: orders again to score one hundred runs. I don't know. 464 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 1: I'm starting to think that we might be at the 465 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,360 Speaker 1: end of the road here, but possibly with DJ Lemayhew 466 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: like this, the guy's gonna get dropped in the order. 467 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 1: There's a guy that could even get replaced at some 468 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: point at his position as the Yankees continue to struggle 469 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,159 Speaker 1: with health right now, between Cole and Rizzo now le Mayhew. 470 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: I mean, it is a lot going on here for 471 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: the Yankees, and I think le may is a player 472 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:35,400 Speaker 1: going the wrong direction. Age is not his friend. Previous 473 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 1: performance the last couple of years is not his friend. 474 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: I think this is kind of a fork in the road, 475 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: and if the Yankees were smart, they wouldn't dwell in 476 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 1: the past year. If it's not working out. I understand 477 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: wanted to give the guy as benefit of doubt. You 478 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: give him a month in that spot when he's healthy, 479 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 1: see what happens. But if it's not working out and 480 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: Volpi's hitting, you have to make that change. Next on 481 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:53,959 Speaker 1: this list again kind of like one of Welsh's here 482 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: with kell Nick and Duval Mark Vientos. So the New 483 00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: York Mets qualifies at first third d h kind of guy, right, 484 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: I think with Viento's basically it comes down to this. 485 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: He did flash power. He had five home runs in 486 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: the spring, but the problem is he had nineteen strikeouts, 487 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: too way too much swing and miss, two thirty two 488 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 1: batting average, a two fifty nine OVP. Those things aren't good. 489 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 1: So what did the Mets do? They signed Jad Martinez, 490 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: which is very very smart here because the Mets are 491 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: probably not going to be competing. In my opinion, I 492 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: don't think that pitching staff is good enough to compete 493 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 1: for a playoff spot. We'll see, maybe I'll be wrong. 494 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: Typically I'm right when it comes to the Mets, which 495 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: is unfortunate because usually it's a negative. But at the 496 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: same time, Jady Martinez probably not going to spend the 497 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: whole year with the Mets if things do go south, 498 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 1: so Biento's will get a shot eventually. It makes him 499 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 1: a really fascinating by low in dynasty leagues right now, Welsh, 500 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 1: because the market's kind of gone the other way on him. 501 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: I think he's a player that has twenty five home 502 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,239 Speaker 1: run power at the big league level. He does need 503 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,640 Speaker 1: to fix the strikeouts, he does need to make more contact. 504 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: I think those are things that he could work on. 505 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 1: But my goodness, that interview that he gave after when 506 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: they realized that they signed Jad Martinez. Vento's clearly was 507 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: not happy about this and clearly new I'm going back 508 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: to the league's things are not going to work out 509 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 1: for me here, at least not yet. And sometimes players 510 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: respond very well to that, They respond with a chip 511 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 1: on their shoulder, and I think that's a good thing, 512 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: possibly for Vento's, so keep that in mind. Interesting by 513 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: Lowen dynasty not a guy right now in redraft circles 514 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,880 Speaker 1: need to pay attention to. But the JD. Martinez thing, 515 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: He's an older player. It's not gonna last all year. 516 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: Vento's at some point will get another shot, so this 517 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 1: is more of a long term thing. But certainly a 518 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,239 Speaker 1: guy going the opposite direction this spring is not going 519 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,360 Speaker 1: to start twenty twenty four in a good spot here, 520 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,719 Speaker 1: but hopefully in the minor leagues he produces, and if 521 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: he does, put him on that watch list because you 522 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: might want to add him sooner than later, because there's 523 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: always going to be injuries and opportunities at some point 524 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: in the season. Third one is a big name Welsh 525 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,439 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying I'm not drafting this guy. And 526 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: I remember some spring trainings in fact one in particular 527 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: years ago it was Zach Greenk's first cy young actual 528 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 1: season where I think as ERA was like nineteen. In 529 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: the spring, it was terrible. I'm exaggerating only slightly. That's 530 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: how bad Granky was that spring. He ended up winning 531 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 1: the cy Young that year, and people were fading him 532 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,679 Speaker 1: and freaking out because it was such a terror. Oh 533 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: my god, what's wrong with Cranky. I don't want to say, 534 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: oh my god, what's wrong with logan Web, but Welsh, 535 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: Oh my god, what's wrong with logan Web. He's a 536 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: ten nine to six ERA over twenty one innings this spring. 537 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: He whip is at one eight seven. Now, the strikeout 538 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 1: rate's still pure goal twenty two strikeouts, just three walks. 539 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: So that's kind of my safe haven when it comes 540 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: to logan Web. But he has given up thirty seven 541 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 1: hits in those twenty one innings. Now I assume this 542 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: is a guy just working the kinks out. Logan Web 543 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: has been so consistent. He's kind of like my safe 544 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: word in fantasy logan Web. Like when I don't like 545 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,719 Speaker 1: how the pitching looks on the board or things are 546 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: getting uncomfortable, I'll just scream out logan Web and draft 547 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: logan Web. But all of a sudden, it feels a 548 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 1: little less safe this spring after this last couple rounds here. 549 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna put this to you. Is this the 550 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,239 Speaker 1: classic case of you overreacting to spring with a guy 551 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 1: who's got nothing but good track record. Is he hiding 552 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: an injury? Is there something more brewing here when it 553 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:56,120 Speaker 1: comes to Logan Web or what? Because these numbers are 554 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 1: not great when it comes to Logan Web, and this 555 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 1: is another picture we're counting on to anchor fantasy rotations. 556 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 3: This is an ear muff situation. I'm just put my 557 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,639 Speaker 3: ear mus on. I'm not listening to any of it. 558 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 3: These are all bad words, not doing this. This is 559 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,479 Speaker 3: the example, and by the way, this will be what 560 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 3: we look back on if Logan Web like starts off 561 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 3: really rough and then maybe he picks. 562 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 2: It back up blah blah blah. 563 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 3: But this is the prime like spring example of I 564 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 3: don't care to your point, though he's given up the 565 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 3: most earned runs of any single picture in all of 566 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 3: spring training, he is getting demolished. There's not a lot 567 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 3: of that stack cast data is just not like available 568 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 3: unless he's gone to Salt River, which is the bummer. 569 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 3: You'd like to see more of it, you'd like to 570 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 3: assume there's a lot of work. But this is like 571 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 3: the safety there's a safety net to this. Here's a positive. 572 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 3: By the way, some of these pictures you go and 573 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 3: look at, and this is what worries me. 574 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 2: I pick and choose some of the things. 575 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 3: One thing that worries me with pictures is when I 576 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,679 Speaker 3: see walk numbers get out of control, like era is 577 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 3: whatever and whatever. But like when I see walk numbers 578 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,360 Speaker 3: that look at normal or walk numbers that are carrying somebody, listen, 579 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 3: Jerry Jones ten percent walk rate. I don't love that. 580 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 3: And I picked him as a as an up. Logan 581 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 3: web is three walks, all spring pitching to a ton 582 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 3: of contact. Unfortunately a lot of contact. 583 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,439 Speaker 1: Maybe, so I mentioned earlier. I was like, I'm, uh, 584 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 1: walk rates low, strikeout rates high. I don't care about 585 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: the five VRA. Yeah, And that's how about Logan Webs 586 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: the RA because he's getting hit all over the ballpark, 587 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: and that to me is a little troubling here. 588 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 2: I'm just you know, yeah, I'm I'm I'm ignoring all 589 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 2: of it. 590 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 3: If if he had really bad like walk numbers and 591 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 3: we had reports of like really bad v LO decreases 592 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 3: and stuff like that I'd be more worried push comes 593 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 3: to shove into season. It's a great, uh pitcher friendly ballpark. 594 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 3: You heard JD Martinez. I don't know if everybody saw this. 595 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 3: JD Martinez talked about why he didn't sign with San Francisco. 596 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 3: He literally cited how not hit or friendly that ballpark is, 597 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:50,919 Speaker 3: and how if he were to go there and his 598 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 3: power numbers were to struggle, people would think he's done 599 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 3: and he might not be able to earn some more money. 600 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 3: He literally went to Mets because it's more friendly and avoided. 601 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 3: That's a good pitcher thing. So he you know, the 602 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 3: stuff is about the same. He's not abnormally walking guys. 603 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 3: It's just bad spring numbers. Right now, I am not 604 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 3: paying attention to any of it, and I am drafting him, 605 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 3: but we will go back and cite this if he 606 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 3: does start to struggle early in April. 607 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: Or if there's an injury or something else is wrong. 608 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on. Look, and sometimes there's 609 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: personal things going on. These are not just you know, 610 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: numbers on a page or people. There could be a 611 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: lot going on this guy's personal life for all we know. 612 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: All I know is that's not the Logan Web we 613 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,920 Speaker 1: signed up for. It's not the guy we're seeing in 614 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 1: the Spring so far, and it probably means nothing, like 615 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:37,439 Speaker 1: Welsh's saying, I'm ninety percent sure it means nothing, but 616 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: there's that ten percent where I'm just a little concerned. 617 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 1: And when I have to pay that kind of price 618 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: for a picture, it gives me pause because he is 619 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 1: now even higher up on that trope. 620 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 3: If you were in a draft right now, I feel 621 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 3: like that would be in your head and I'm trying 622 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 3: to think of who the guy you like are between. 623 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 2: But I feel like the. 624 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: Other tyler Glass now or you know, Logan Web right now, 625 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,199 Speaker 1: I think I would doe tyler Glass now, like. 626 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 2: Are you a Curby guy? I don't know if you're 627 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 2: a Kurby guy. 628 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 1: I would take Kirby Overweb right now. I wasn't before 629 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: the Spring. 630 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 2: I could tell you about this, How about this Yamamoto 631 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 2: or Web struggle. 632 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: I'll take Web, but it's for different reasons. But again, 633 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: like I think the Web track record, he's earned that 634 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 1: respect a little bit, and it's not a disrespect Yamamoto, 635 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:19,679 Speaker 1: and it's not because of what he did in the 636 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: first start. You throw these things out the window. I 637 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 1: think sometimes with the travel and all the pressure on 638 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 1: the weirdness going on there. But there's a question for 639 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: you too. In a time when we're trying to evaluate 640 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 1: players the most, it seems like, don't you think it's 641 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,160 Speaker 1: weird that stack cast isn't available for every ballpark? 642 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I think there's, uh, there's financial components. 643 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 1: There might be You're right, MEMLB doesn't make a lot 644 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: of money. 645 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,439 Speaker 3: Right, No, But I'm saying, like teams committee, okay, well, 646 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 3: I mean there's a lot of things we could cite to, 647 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 3: but it just took like you know, lawyers and public 648 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 3: outrage for years for them to like, you know, pay 649 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 3: four hundred extra dollars a month to minor leaguers so 650 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 3: you know, to put in the bat. There's also advantages 651 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 3: if you remember when there was like bubbly type of 652 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 3: things going on, teams were allowed to tell other teams, oh, 653 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 3: you can't come scout our prospects. 654 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 2: They weren't allowed to go do it.
