Speaker 1: you gotta do. Welsh, good to see you, my friend.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to give this Jose Ramirez jersey. Wait
Speaker 1: at one of our wonderful listeners. It was a good
Speaker 1: night for home runs. Two guys went yard twice yesterday
Speaker 1: and both made me smile very very much, but for
Speaker 1: different reasons. Okay, I guess, okay, I guess it's Kurtz.
Speaker 1: It's well Nick Kurtz, first of all, because okay, not
Speaker 1: only did it go yard twice, there was some moonshot
Speaker 1: one Like, he is hitting the ball hard. He looks
Speaker 1: like the guy that I kept watching at Triple A.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw the home runs last
Speaker 1: night or just saw the box score, but I saw
Speaker 1: the homers and they were spectacular. They were mammoth Nick Kurtz,
Speaker 1: big time power. Now is he gonna play today against
Speaker 1: the lefty? That's the question, Like we're gonna give him
Speaker 1: a rest. I hate when guys do that. You know,
Speaker 1: a guy gets hot and all of a sudden you
Speaker 1: sit him. But Nick Kurtz hitting those home runs, starting
Speaker 1: to rack up a few more. He's starting to look
Speaker 1: like he's settling in and patience is being rewarded.
Speaker 2: So the game works with a lot of these rookies.
Speaker 2: He doesn't have a hit versus lefties yet. By the way,
Speaker 2: he has had some at bats, but he does not
Speaker 2: registered to hit. It'd be probably behoove them, especially if
Speaker 2: they're committed to not having him in a platoon, like
Speaker 2: they said that they would let him get some at
Speaker 2: bats versus lefties. But no, this is the game with prospects.
Speaker 2: I think there's a bigger question about the ROI where
Speaker 2: you get this, you know, great young guy and then
Speaker 2: they're awesome and then they kind of pair back down
Speaker 2: and they come back like, what's the level of roy
Speaker 2: you need really for investment? But Kurtz wasn't a pre
Speaker 2: drafted guy. He was a player that you did spend
Speaker 2: some fab on and things are starting to click. That's
Speaker 2: all that you've been looking for, and the underlying stuff
Speaker 2: is pretty phenomenal. The strikeouts are still the problem, but
Speaker 2: that thing is cut from you know, into the forties
Speaker 2: down to it's still thirty five percent. It still sucks,
Speaker 2: but you know he's getting there. He's getting acclimated. It's
Speaker 2: an incredible ballpark for him to be in. Nick Kurtz.
Speaker 2: My pushback for weeks against all of you, all of you,
Speaker 2: Joe and all of you has been that we hold
Speaker 2: on and Nick Kurtz is starting to click a little bit.
Speaker 2: So it's nice.
Speaker 1: Also, two home runs, but this isn't the other one
Speaker 1: I'm referencing is logo o hoppy four seventy. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: was a far shot too. Sears was throwing BP yesterday
Speaker 1: in that ballpark. It was a crazy town. Shout out
Speaker 1: to Iron Mike, who just subscribed here on our twitch.
Speaker 1: But yeah, logan o'happy two homers. The Angels won ten five.
Speaker 1: Also in that game, Lawrence Butler hitting a home run,
Speaker 1: So maybe, just maybe, you know, getting a little hot here.
Speaker 1: Hopefully that'll work out too. Also, when I was watching
Speaker 1: a Mets game yesterday, Mets red Sox, which was entertaining
Speaker 1: the time, stressful at others. The Juan Soto at bats,
Speaker 1: Everyone's gonna make a big deal out of it, because,
Speaker 1: oh mon Soto never strikes out three times. And again
Speaker 1: it's Garrett Crochet. He's one of the best left handed
Speaker 1: pitchers in baseball. Give him a break. And then when
Speaker 1: they went to the bullpend, he hit a ball that
Speaker 1: all night the wind was blowing in, and he hit
Speaker 1: a ball that probably would have been out in a
Speaker 1: lot of places, but it went all the way to
Speaker 1: dead center in Boston. And Duran hit a ball too
Speaker 1: that just died. It should have been a Grand Slam.
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe it didn't get out of that ballpark.
Speaker 1: It died the way the wind was blowing in yesterday.
Speaker 1: So take things with a grain of salt. Jason Dominguez,
Speaker 1: he took your salt and he threw it over the fence.
Speaker 1: Solo Homer for him wins the game. Ryan Yarborough also
Speaker 1: really good. I did watch some of that game last
Speaker 1: night too, flipping around one run, eight strikeouts. I don't
Speaker 1: know what version of Ryan Yarborough all of a sudden
Speaker 1: has just dropped into the Yankees lap, but it's been
Speaker 1: pretty decent. And I've been, you know, trying to get
Speaker 1: him bounce from this rotation. I still think he's going
Speaker 1: to get bounced from this rotation eventually. But Yarborough, is
Speaker 1: this a guy potentially you want to stream just simply
Speaker 1: based on the fact that he's a Yankee.
Speaker 2: I think if you're in a spot where you know
Speaker 2: it's a really good matchup, I would consider it. But
Speaker 2: my interest in Yarborough's kind of minimal. My interest in
Speaker 2: Dimingez continues to roll. I think back in a very
Speaker 2: I Told you So a moment preseason where I was
Speaker 2: doing this big industry prospect draft and I had taken
Speaker 2: Dimenez at the top. I still doesn't look like phenomenal,
Speaker 2: but it was this Rokie versus Jason Dimingaz situation and
Speaker 2: just haven't had people in the camp with me about
Speaker 2: Jason Dimingez. And you know what, again, things are clicking.
Speaker 2: You Sometimes you bank on that talent skill set and
Speaker 2: you just hope that the player has enough to be
Speaker 2: able to know bounce back and show progression. And that's
Speaker 2: what he's done. Jason Diminga still has an elite fifty
Speaker 2: four percent hard hit rate so far this year. Barrel's
Speaker 2: dipped a little bit, but he's getting the ball in
Speaker 2: the air. He's tripled his lawnch angle, he's hitting the
Speaker 2: ball on that sweet spot better. He's walking more. You
Speaker 2: love to see it, and he's diversifying his ability of
Speaker 2: different pitches to hit and he smacks the crap out
Speaker 2: of the ball. He can run some Jason Dimingez. You know,
Speaker 2: we've been a little wishy washy about that. I feel
Speaker 2: like the questions we've got on Dimingez where it's always
Speaker 2: like Domingez or you know, like even Chandler Simpson, Diminga
Speaker 2: has been a little bit dicey. But it's really starting
Speaker 2: to click and you're seeing some of those loud stats
Speaker 2: and Mike quietly walk into like a twenty twenty season
Speaker 2: when it's all done.
Speaker 1: Also yesterday, walking into not one but two home runs.
Speaker 1: My pick from yesterday, Jake Berger.
Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't realize that.
Speaker 1: Smash Burger yesterday. That's right, smash Burger is everywhere. I
Speaker 1: got two of them, so I don't know my I
Speaker 1: up at dipple digits yet. Can we get a get
Speaker 1: a verification now?
Speaker 2: I think was I had eight or seven?
Speaker 1: I don't know if I was at seven or eight.
Speaker 1: If I was at eight, I'm at ten now and
Speaker 1: I'm coming for you ambout eleven.
Speaker 2: Oh oh, well, surely a couple away from me. I
Speaker 2: cold Stone, cold cold Stone.
Speaker 1: Oh I'm Smashburger right now. All those two home runs
Speaker 1: were so good. Yesterday also so good. Jacob de Gram
Speaker 1: three hits, two runs, one walk, nine strikeouts, and seven innings.
Speaker 1: He got no decision. Unfortunately, the Rangers could not handle
Speaker 1: their business against the Yankees. We talked about the Dominguez
Speaker 1: walk off, but this was exactly what I expected yesterday.
Speaker 1: This is the only one of my couple bets. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: besides the home run and the d Gram strikeout total
Speaker 1: they'd hit. But this is what you want to see
Speaker 1: out of Jaob Gram. The last couple of starts he's
Speaker 1: really settled in and I'm gonna take the l on
Speaker 1: this one. I was very afraid. I'm still very afraid.
Speaker 1: Every time he goes out and has a start like
Speaker 1: this and looks really good pitching deep into games. That's
Speaker 1: the thing that I think you look for with Jacob deGrom.
Speaker 1: I hope it holds. That's all I hope, because he
Speaker 1: is one of, if not the best bitcher and baseball
Speaker 1: and it's been so unfortunate that we haven't had him
Speaker 1: for about four years now, maybe even five, when you
Speaker 1: really can think twenty nineteen was the last really good
Speaker 1: Jacob de Gram moments, but it's been so difficult to
Speaker 1: think that a guy can miss that much time with
Speaker 1: all the injuries and all the surgeries and all the issues.
Speaker 1: To come back and even find some remnants of himself
Speaker 1: is very encouraging. I'm not holding my breath that it's
Speaker 1: going to last all year, but you have to be
Speaker 1: really impressed with Jacob de Gram has done so far
Speaker 1: in the last couple starts especially.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think maybe you can hold your breath a
Speaker 2: little bit, like you do know the injury lingers out there,
Speaker 2: but you know, I've been speculating on this for a
Speaker 2: couple of weeks, and you just you continue to see
Speaker 2: it kind of playing out that. You know, he he
Speaker 2: down ticked everything for about the first month of the season,
Speaker 2: and maybe that was strictly a health situation, you know,
Speaker 2: and his velo is down a little bit. Results were
Speaker 2: a little bit different. We've also seen a very concerted
Speaker 2: change in how he uses a change up. Last year
Speaker 2: he threw it only five percent of the time, you know, sample's,
Speaker 2: of course, but this year he's throwing at nine percent
Speaker 2: of the time, almost ten percent. Let me look if
Speaker 2: there any other years of high usage, Yeah, eight percent,
Speaker 2: eight percent. In twenty twenty we saw sixteen percent. So
Speaker 2: it's kind of getting back to those roots. Vilo is
Speaker 2: up as of recent starts. Change up. It's starting to
Speaker 2: get going, and you know, he's he's lowering barrel rates
Speaker 2: pitched against and he's just not trying to be the
Speaker 2: fifteen strikeout guy every single game.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I really do think that this version of him is
Speaker 2: a sustainable version. Now, I don't know if I'm going
Speaker 2: to pay top five sp or anything like that. There's
Speaker 2: an argument that maybe you can sell high on him,
Speaker 2: but I also think there's you know if someone were worried,
Speaker 2: like I would be comfortable maybe buying in on him
Speaker 2: for the rest of this season that he can he
Speaker 2: actually legitimately might put up like one hundred and fifty
Speaker 2: innings at this point. With how how this is working?
Speaker 1: Well, remember they talked about an Ils did for him
Speaker 1: some point in a year, just to give him a breather. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I recall Pedro Martinez towards the end too, when he
Speaker 1: wasn't the guy finding a different version of himself as
Speaker 1: a pitcher. I don't think with the velocity this all
Speaker 1: last night that that's quite where we're at. But Pedro
Speaker 1: had some really successful years towards the end there with
Speaker 1: the Mets, when he wasn't quite the dominant guy of
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety nine anymore. Lucissero's I want to shout out
Speaker 1: because they graduated today with a master So congratulations. That
Speaker 1: is how you could get a master's degree and still
Speaker 1: be here every single day watching this show and it
Speaker 1: not make you dumber. I don't know, I don't know
Speaker 1: how that works, but congratulations. That is really something FORGID.
Speaker 2: It's like graduation any time, So congratulations, Yes, everybody.
Speaker 1: I'm going to a graduation right after this show. I'm
Speaker 1: going to one. But so everybody congratulate Lucissero's in the
Speaker 1: chat though, that's a great thing. Picked too, Augustin, Jason,
Speaker 1: josh Lo, Nick Kurtz. I guess, just in a vacuum,
Speaker 1: who do you want rest of season? I don't want
Speaker 1: to let go of Kurtz. I think it's Kurtz and
Speaker 1: Domingez or the guys that I want. How about you?
Speaker 2: I think it's low and Dimingez, but like I don't
Speaker 2: know how I have catchers might make it important? About Agostin,
Speaker 2: I think those are all really close. Unfortunately at that list,
Speaker 2: Kurtz might actually be at the bottom for me, or
Speaker 2: he is not might but he.
Speaker 1: Is game OVA. Who do I drop when Akooney is activated?
Speaker 1: Viento's Doyle or Augustin? I think Doyle boy, He's he
Speaker 1: dropped off. What an incredible drop off year over year.
Speaker 1: Doyle was so solid last year, and I know people
Speaker 1: were saying was gonna regress, but man, Welsh, that guy's
Speaker 1: just falling off a map compared to what he did
Speaker 1: last year. And last year people were saying, oh, it's
Speaker 1: not gonna last, not gonna last, and he kept going
Speaker 1: in the second half. This year has been nothing close.
Speaker 1: I think it's Doyle.
Speaker 2: I want to look to Uh. By the way, I'll
Speaker 2: be very self deprecating. I'm doing a little too much
Speaker 2: of like I was right. So well, we'll knock myself
Speaker 2: never enough pages. I definitely will knock myself down a
Speaker 2: couple pages. But I have to have been one of
Speaker 2: the lowest on Brenton Doyle. Yeah, he was absolutely straight
Speaker 2: fade for me into the season. He had huge uh
Speaker 2: he was hit like two hundred on the road, I
Speaker 2: think three hundred at home. He had HUGEZ didn't buy
Speaker 2: the crazy big counting stats. I say all of this
Speaker 2: in that like putting him at high high points of
Speaker 2: the lineup. He's got four homers, five stolen bases. He
Speaker 2: could still be a twenty twenty guy this year and
Speaker 2: be relatively ish successful. But it's pretty bad.
Speaker 1: It is.
Speaker 2: The results are bad. The stuff though, I will throw
Speaker 2: out he might borderline by right now because he's got
Speaker 2: a two fifty four expected batting average, thirteen percent barrel rate.
Speaker 2: He's not striking out anymore. The profile looks this just
Speaker 2: looks very similar and guess what, shocker, he's underperforming against
Speaker 2: four seam fastballs. That is something that tends to bounce
Speaker 2: back for hitters that have any real juice to them.
Speaker 2: So maybe he's a little bit of a buy. But
Speaker 2: on that list, I think he would be the guy
Speaker 2: I would cut.
Speaker 1: Angel theory has a question, who could I get for Eavaldi?
Speaker 1: Sell high head to head? Well, I don't think you're
Speaker 1: so on high. I've ald he's been really good the
Speaker 1: last couple of years. I would think the return for
Speaker 1: him you're not gonna get like super elite. Could you
Speaker 1: get a James Wood for him? Who is like kind
Speaker 1: of that tiered in that next grouping? Like I'm just
Speaker 1: looking at names like Saya, Suzuki, James Wood.
Speaker 2: I think I think player is too low. I think
Speaker 2: James Wood might be too high.
Speaker 1: So it's Goldilocks.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we need to find that just perfectly.
Speaker 1: I want to play it just right back in my trade.
Speaker 2: Like I actually am. I'm kind of with the Selish
Speaker 2: thing on selling Evaldi high, but I don't know like
Speaker 2: it should get you.
Speaker 1: What about Bregman? How about Bregman? Is that the one
Speaker 1: I can give you?
Speaker 2: I would smash take?
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I have always really good.
Speaker 2: He's been amazing, But like, I don't know if I
Speaker 2: buy the k percentage increase, sticking three percent walk rate,
Speaker 2: that's I mean, I guess he has had some four percent.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't I had last year in a lot of leagues. Man,
Speaker 1: he is just he's quietly really good and just nobody
Speaker 1: seems to care because all the hype is always around
Speaker 1: the other bigger names in that rotation. It was Sureser
Speaker 1: for a while, and now as the GRAM everyone's talking
Speaker 1: about nobody talks about Evaldi. Kevin Gossman, let's talk about him.
Speaker 1: I've been waiting for this. I've been laying in the weeds.
Speaker 1: No runs, nine strikeouts, no walk seven innings. Let's go
Speaker 1: against the Padres too. Take that, Michael Kelly. Uh, how
Speaker 1: about that performance from Kevin Gossman. Tommy Edmund I even
Speaker 1: seen him in a long time. I know he's been hurt,
Speaker 1: so hopefully he comes back, because right now, Kevin Gosman,
Speaker 1: I think with this performance, it's kind of leapt back
Speaker 1: into the lead in that big one.
Speaker 2: Yeah maybe, I mean, I don't remember, like how we
Speaker 2: judge it.
Speaker 1: By the way, I know it's hard because Edmond's not
Speaker 1: playing so I.
Speaker 2: Gotta go backwards for just one second. Todd and the
Speaker 2: chat mentioned Eovaldi as far as first halves go, and
Speaker 2: this is interesting. He has been a first half guy
Speaker 2: for years two nine to seven pre All Star era
Speaker 2: last year four eight one in the second half first
Speaker 2: half two eight three. In twenty twenty three second half
Speaker 2: seven point one eight oh twenty twenty two three point
Speaker 2: three four in the first half second half four point
Speaker 2: nine to one. So that is years upon years of
Speaker 2: over a run differentials first and second half. Sometimes you
Speaker 2: have first and second half players. But yes, oh Joe,
Speaker 2: it was all right, Gosman, Tommy had.
Speaker 1: That was pretty good last night. Padres would say, Kevin
Speaker 1: Gosman was pretty good. I just I just want the
Speaker 1: starting pitcher, not the utility infielder that had a good
Speaker 1: month against the team that he always crushes, which was
Speaker 1: the Cubs. Fabby Davis Junior says more Goldilocks or Joe
Speaker 1: Jodlock's voice, Do we approve that message? Or now one voice,
Speaker 1: the one that I just did like this? Oh goodness, gracious.
Speaker 2: It's a grave voice.
Speaker 1: So you like that, all right? Videos, Yeah you think so?
Speaker 1: Six innings struck out six for Gavin Williams yesterday. Good
Speaker 1: to see him starting to get right. Hunter Brown got
Speaker 1: wrong though. Five runs, seven hits, five innings. It's funny.
Speaker 1: The last time he struggled was also in a day game.
Speaker 1: I know because I was on TV hosting In Game
Speaker 1: Live at the time for Sports Grid and we were
Speaker 1: watching a Hunter Brown game and he kind of rallied
Speaker 1: that first inning. He was really rough against the White Sox.
Speaker 1: Maybe Hunter Brown's just not a day game pitcher. I
Speaker 1: don't know, but we can look those are the only
Speaker 1: I'd love to see the splits on that because this
Speaker 1: was very Hunter Brown. Like, I am not concerned in
Speaker 1: the least about this performance. It was against the Rays,
Speaker 1: not a great offense. So I understand why people are
Speaker 1: puzzled right now. We're all puzzled, but I will say,
Speaker 1: like that's, you know, it's it's not something I'm gonna
Speaker 1: get concerned about necessarily.
Speaker 2: There is a big differential. But the day games he's
Speaker 2: still a great pitcher. So he has a point eight
Speaker 2: three ERA in night games right now, so there's five
Speaker 2: starts at night ridiculous, point seven to seven whip point
Speaker 2: eight three ERA day games, he's got a point or
Speaker 2: he's got a one point zero seven whip three and
Speaker 2: one record but a three four one ERA, so it's
Speaker 2: over two runs differential. But that's still a pretty great
Speaker 2: pitcher that he is in the day. So I'm not
Speaker 2: sure if there's a I mean, there's kind of a
Speaker 2: correlation there for sure, But you know that that was
Speaker 2: a I don't know if that was like the tough,
Speaker 2: tough matchup that you're staring at. But he's gonna regress
Speaker 2: a little bit, like he's expected. He already told us
Speaker 2: that story. He's still pretty a lead across the board. Well,
Speaker 2: you're more worried about is if they start to stack
Speaker 2: and he starts to look average, and you know he's
Speaker 2: not getting away with maybe some of the stuff he
Speaker 2: was getting away with earlier in the year. That would
Speaker 2: be what we're watching. He's also he I don't think
Speaker 2: I realized this. He's a pretty high percentage with fastball guy,
Speaker 2: and you don't see I mean, I guess you got
Speaker 2: to look at k percentage, but yeah, she's for k
Speaker 2: percentage from his forcing fastball. That's not something we see
Speaker 2: a ton of. You usually see forcing set up a
Speaker 2: lot of other stuff. So that's all.
Speaker 1: A guy who knows how to locate a fastball.
Speaker 2: Do it feels sticky, but he's done.
Speaker 1: Sticky if you know how to locate it. I think
Speaker 1: that's the problem. Everybody throws a hundred. They just throw
Speaker 1: it straight. They can't locate it. They can't change the
Speaker 1: eye angle of the of the hitter. Todd also says
Speaker 1: that my Jodylock's voice is across between Jackson Holiday with
Speaker 1: a bad British accent. I would agree. I think that's
Speaker 1: exactly what I was going for. Nailed it. Also a
Speaker 1: Christian Yelich. We talked about him yesterday in the Q
Speaker 1: and A. We have big discussions, so I don't want
Speaker 1: to go too much into it. Go back and watch
Speaker 1: a Q and A. It's on the YouTube channel Fantasy
Speaker 1: Rose MLB. So Yelich was somebody we talked about off
Speaker 1: air yesterday after we recorded the Waiver Wire show, also
Speaker 1: available on demand on the YouTube channel. Coincidentally, I think not,
Speaker 1: and then we got into a bigger discussion about Yelich.
Speaker 1: The counting stats are still there, the home runs, the
Speaker 1: stolen bases, the batting average hasn't been He grounded out
Speaker 1: four times and struck out yesterday against the Orioles. He
Speaker 1: has a sixty four percent ground ball rate. Well just
Speaker 1: thought that was a little high of a number there,
Speaker 1: twenty eight percent strikeout rate, and it's just not been
Speaker 1: good for Yelich. My concern with Yelich and people say,
Speaker 1: well do you buy what do you do a player
Speaker 1: who was chronic back issues is just not when I
Speaker 1: want to make investments in. That's it. It's as simple
Speaker 1: as that for me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw somebody put I'd mentioned this on the
Speaker 2: live stream, and then I think it was this morning
Speaker 2: someone mentioned a it's one of the worst ground ball rates.
Speaker 2: But he also the new stat on a baseball savant
Speaker 2: with attack angle, because like you'll see, some of these
Speaker 2: players like Jacob Wilson and stuff have these really really
Speaker 2: low attack angles, which is just letting the ball travel
Speaker 2: more and more and more and not not being afraid
Speaker 2: to put it in the ground. But Yelich isn't doing that.
Speaker 2: Yeliwi has like league prototypical attack angle of like a
Speaker 2: ten degree, So that means he's getting on the ball
Speaker 2: at the proper time, which in theory would not increase
Speaker 2: ground balls like crazy. That would be as if he
Speaker 2: lost his attack angle. So it's really odd, and to me,
Speaker 2: I'm not sure if that's something that continue. I mean,
Speaker 2: maybe you just become bad and it doesn't matter. But
Speaker 2: there's still and that would be like his barrel rate
Speaker 2: really sucks and stuff like that. But there's some stuff
Speaker 2: that I look at that don't seem like they can stick, Like,
Speaker 2: you know, a negative launch angle. He has a negative
Speaker 2: launch angle right now. That's crazy. So I'm not really
Speaker 2: sure where it's coming from, you know, seems to be
Speaker 2: in his head or something like that. I'd love to
Speaker 2: just see some data that's like, oh, hey, look, his
Speaker 2: attack angle is usually like ten degrees. It's down at four,
Speaker 2: so he's super behind and that's why he's just beating
Speaker 2: everything into the ground. Kind of don't know, he's just
Speaker 2: hitting a bunch of ground balls, making bad decisions. Maybe
Speaker 2: it's his back, who knows. I tend to slightly be
Speaker 2: a bye on him still, but I understand why people
Speaker 2: are just getting out of the business because you can't
Speaker 2: be successful with that many ground balls.
Speaker 1: Now, I buy Cheerio, but I'm not going to buy Yellish.
Speaker 1: That's where I'm at with those guys. By the way,
Speaker 1: attack angle, you can find this fall on CBS nine
Speaker 1: pm Eastern, followed by max Velocity at ten. Definitely part
Speaker 1: of our extreme Tuesday nights.
Speaker 2: That's my new name. By the way, Joe people weren't
Speaker 2: here yesterday. I'm all max Velocity.
Speaker 1: There you go. Shout out to Jeff two. We'll see
Speaker 1: if we can get on the show tomorrow. He had
Speaker 1: a graphic MAUP for max Velocity. He tried to get
Speaker 1: it to look like an adult film star, but AI
Speaker 1: has restrictions on it, which is a shame. But at
Speaker 1: least we know you're adult film star. Name now Joster
Speaker 1: Damas everybody's favorite now Sunday on Sports Career, were during
Speaker 1: a two hour look back at the first fifty games
Speaker 1: of the season Sunday morning. So go find sports Grid
Speaker 1: watch me on there eight to ten because there's a
Speaker 1: really fun thing. And as I was going through all
Speaker 1: the stats, trying to pull up the you know, first fifty,
Speaker 1: you know, trying to look back at what's going on,
Speaker 1: look ahead a little bit, I found one of our friends,
Speaker 1: Michael Harris first fifty game stats, and I just figured
Speaker 1: I would throw him out here to twenty four batting average.
Speaker 1: He has three whole runs, all three of them really exciting.
Speaker 1: I scored twelve whole runs twenty four RBI Michael Harris overrated.
Speaker 2: You said that I thought there was more that you're
Speaker 2: gonna get going.
Speaker 1: I say it like a statement. I'm saying like a
Speaker 1: question to you because I want to know if you're
Speaker 1: ready to make the statement.
Speaker 2: With me on the overrated. Yeah, I mean, I guess
Speaker 2: I'm willing to kind of do that. Like he's stacked
Speaker 2: a couple of years of like he's not quite a
Speaker 2: twenty twenty guy kind of is. His average continues to dip,
Speaker 2: but I'll say this, I still like he's going to
Speaker 2: bounce back. I mean, there might be kind of some
Speaker 2: split things. I'm gonna look here as far as first
Speaker 2: and second half's go over the last couple of years,
Speaker 2: he was a second half guy last year twenty twenty
Speaker 2: three massive second half guy as well, really needs to
Speaker 2: get going. His expected batting average currently is forty points higher.
Speaker 2: He's striking out less. He's just not making as same
Speaker 2: quality of contact. I want to look into some other things.
Speaker 2: But maybe you also have Michael Harris starting to accept
Speaker 2: to be like a different player. He dramatically dropped his
Speaker 2: hard hit rate. And what I mean by that is just,
Speaker 2: you know, be more of a contact hitter. We see
Speaker 2: a couple of guys like this that they're going to
Speaker 2: stop trying to, you know, get the ball in the
Speaker 2: air like crazy. You would love to see him do
Speaker 2: what C. J. Abrams does and just say, oh, like,
Speaker 2: I'm not a great barrel guy, but I get the
Speaker 2: ball in the.
Speaker 1: Air like sixteen handles.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I guess, yeah.
Speaker 1: Contact, give up some power to hit the baseball and
Speaker 1: maybe some home runs will come eventually.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's underperforming against every single pitch type right now,
Speaker 2: while having the highest poll rate of his career and
Speaker 2: expected batting average is better. I think Michael Harris is
Speaker 2: going to bounce back. Actually might be a pretty sweet
Speaker 2: really by low. When you get the jokes of the
Speaker 2: world out there that hate hate hate.
Speaker 1: I just call it like I see it. To me,
Speaker 1: he's a very overrated player, and he is a nice player.
Speaker 1: His ADP was incredibly overblown going into this season.
Speaker 2: Again that I agree with his looks pretty stupid right now.
Speaker 1: Oh, it's ridiculous. Right now, here's a ridiculous question from
Speaker 1: life or Death. Who's an ideal picture that could trade
Speaker 1: Strider for No, you don't don't trade Strider. This is
Speaker 1: the worst time. You know, he has bad record against
Speaker 1: the NATS. I don't want to trade Spencer Strider. I
Speaker 1: just don't want to do it. Well, sh I don't
Speaker 1: bet that.
Speaker 2: I actually I just saw the name that I would
Speaker 2: maybe look at. I think trading like picture for picture
Speaker 2: is really tough because you know that person like you
Speaker 2: both have to pretend you're not convincing yourselves that you're
Speaker 2: selling off of this picture and that this guy is
Speaker 2: trying to find it.
Speaker 1: Seems like a really toxic relationship.
Speaker 2: I think trade, I think specifically pitcher for pitcher is
Speaker 2: a very toxic way to trade. What I would say,
Speaker 2: like Christopher Sanchez is someone that jumped to my mind.
Speaker 2: I would want Sanchez plus for Strider. Yeah, mos Sanchez
Speaker 2: a lot, but I wouldn't I wouldn't really look to
Speaker 2: trade Strider.
Speaker 1: Okay, here's a question. Would you trade? We got fun
Speaker 1: fun stats here, Hazus Lozardo, who's pitched incredible baseball this year?
Speaker 1: Would you who do you want rest of season? Strider
Speaker 1: or Lozardo?
Speaker 2: I'll take Strider.
Speaker 1: Okay, here's fun facts. Since Era become an official stat
Speaker 1: in both leagues. In nineteen thirteen, two major League baseball
Speaker 1: left handed pitchers have gone undefeated with a sub to
Speaker 1: Era ten plus k per nine over the first ten
Speaker 1: starts of a season. One is Jesu's Lozardo this year.
Speaker 1: The other one Randy Johnson in nineteen ninety five. That's it.
Speaker 1: Lozardo's out of his mind right now. Another fun fact,
Speaker 1: because again researching I gains a fun facts here. Logan
Speaker 1: Henderson of the Brewers is the only major League baseball
Speaker 1: pitcher in the modern era to strike out seven plus
Speaker 1: batters and earn the win in each of his first
Speaker 1: three career appearances. That guy's not going anywhere, folks, He's
Speaker 1: going no place. Transactions. Jean Segura announced his retirement. Boy,
Speaker 1: people are just retiring left and right. Colton Wong, Jean Sigura,
Speaker 1: middle infielders of the past.
Speaker 2: Just could Tucker by the way. I don't know if
Speaker 2: anyone saw this. Cole Tucker, who is married to Vanessa Hutchins.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's been doing radio for a while.
Speaker 2: Yeah it with big beautiful hair. He's one of the
Speaker 2: local guy out here. I had a friend who's in
Speaker 2: a band with him, Like he's great Cold Tucker is
Speaker 2: one of the best human beings on the planet, and
Speaker 2: he's retiring from baseball, but he wants to try to
Speaker 2: continue in being coaching or you know, I mean, I
Speaker 2: guess he's already doing some media, but I think it's
Speaker 2: like some version of coaching or working at some hitting
Speaker 2: complex or something like that.
Speaker 1: So we'll we'll see, we should get him on the show.
Speaker 1: Let's get him on the show next year.
Speaker 2: Probably obtainable, to be honest with you. Jean Sagira, by
Speaker 2: the way, one the Dinebacks don't pull off a lot
Speaker 2: of great trades. Usually they are, you know, selling Paul
Speaker 2: Goldchmith for nothing, but boy, what a coop, just trading
Speaker 2: the epitome of selling high like a fantasy wood off
Speaker 2: of Jean Segura is in incredible season with the Diamondbacks.
Speaker 2: That's his career marker. They got could tell Marty for him,
Speaker 2: and they just shipped him right out. Got to tell Marte.
Speaker 2: But I kind of like Geene Cigarett at least for
Speaker 2: that one year with the Diamondbacks, which was otherworldly. But
Speaker 2: it was sad to see him go.
Speaker 1: Okay, looky, Tom Kate Horton one run five and a
Speaker 1: third innings only three strikeouts, though any input here on
Speaker 1: the Kate Horton start from yesterday. Walsh, Yeah, I.
Speaker 2: Think it's I think things are moving in a positive
Speaker 2: direction for him. I want the strikeouts to tick back up,
Speaker 2: but this is why we wanted them.
Speaker 1: It was almost a very like corporate answer. Things are
Speaker 1: moving right now in directions we're we're looking at the
Speaker 1: headwinds and the tailwinds. We're trying to.
Speaker 2: It definitely was like I was still like I was
Speaker 2: looking at something. I was still in a thing. And
Speaker 2: then he threw it, and I was like, wait, who
Speaker 2: are we talking about? Yes, moving great, projections are looking solid,
Speaker 2: and I think we're going to hit our monthly our
Speaker 2: monthly quota. We're good.
Speaker 1: Andrew Painter seven strikeouts, two runs, one four innings for
Speaker 1: Triple A Lehigh Valley, also running Mauricio two for two
Speaker 1: with another home run to run Homer for him and
Speaker 1: his steel. I gotta say this, Wesh. Brett Batty looked
Speaker 1: really sharp yesterday. He looked like he's starting to settle
Speaker 1: in a little bit and play like Brett Batty in
Speaker 1: the minor leagues. That's the first time last night I'd
Speaker 1: seen that version of Batty. It's only one game. I
Speaker 1: don't want to take too much out of it. But
Speaker 1: Vanto's better get his craft together because Mauricio is hitting
Speaker 1: Baty's starting to look comfortable. Louis Angelekunya is not going anywhere,
Speaker 1: like I said, because he's a fiery guy. He's a
Speaker 1: good guy to have on a team. He's out, he's
Speaker 1: in like Juan Soto's face, like firing him up and
Speaker 1: like he's just that kind of guy. You need those
Speaker 1: guys on teams, you do. Vando's better figured out and
Speaker 1: soon because he's in the weird spot right now. Better
Speaker 1: fix it, Better fix it. Well, we're making adjustments. We've
Speaker 1: we've looked at the data and we're going to do
Speaker 1: our best to move forward here.
Speaker 2: We have a quarterly plan where we are going to
Speaker 2: make organizational adjustments where things are going to hit that
Speaker 2: ROI per acted number. Yes, I've given presentations, by the way,
Speaker 2: like people don't. I used to be in a very
Speaker 2: corporate world, and I'm prepared when I am prepared on presentation.
Speaker 2: Welsh is quite impressive.
Speaker 1: It's true. I've seen it. It's very impressive. CJ. Kyphis.
Speaker 1: So we just talked about a couple of days ago.
Speaker 1: We got to talk about again two before with a
Speaker 1: walk of double, two run homer at Triple A. It's
Speaker 1: going to be Kyph's time sooner than later. I'm just saying, Welsh,
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, let's get to the three up and
Speaker 1: three down Dustin May, eight strikeouts and six innings, Corbyn
Speaker 1: Burns has been back on track. Remember he had that
Speaker 1: skipped start and give him a little bit of a respite.
Speaker 1: Things have been much better since. Three runs over seven innings,
Speaker 1: eight strikeouts and Tyler McGill four hits, one run, one walk,
Speaker 1: career high ten strikeouts. Tyler was terrific last night. He
Speaker 1: was throwing a heavy fast ball yesterday. Man, it was
Speaker 1: crazy to watch. Unfortunately, he got into some trouble there
Speaker 1: and the defense did not help him out. One of
Speaker 1: the defensive problems was his that he went to go
Speaker 1: try to field to go ground balls and to let
Speaker 1: the catcher get it, and he threw it to the outfield.
Speaker 1: But McGill looked really sharp. And that's been a guy
Speaker 1: whose strikeout rate has been higher this year than any
Speaker 1: other year. And we're starting to wonder, you know this
Speaker 1: mitched pitching factory we talk about and you know, we
Speaker 1: keep talking about it because they keep having outings like.
Speaker 2: This pitching factory. Yeah. Man, they've definitely turned out like
Speaker 2: some dudes who work scrap pile. I'll give them credit
Speaker 2: for that. For Griffin Canning and Tyler McGill at thirty
Speaker 2: one percent k percentage. For McGill, he still walks way
Speaker 2: too many, but he is more than serviceable to be
Speaker 2: at the middle of her rotation. And Gorman Burns I
Speaker 2: had him plus I just want to point out plus
Speaker 2: one for five and a half strikeouts yesterday. I played
Speaker 2: him att because those changes are real. That rest he
Speaker 2: was able to rebounce back. He's got his VLO back.
Speaker 2: And interesting thing you know, Ino Sarahs from the Athletic
Speaker 2: talk to him and he was very insightful about because
Speaker 2: we designated as a cutter the main fastball that he throws.
Speaker 2: But he says in this video with you know that
Speaker 2: he's just like, listen, I'm actually going more for seam.
Speaker 2: I have for sem action. I'm throwing it like a
Speaker 2: for seam. There's natural cut to it. And he says,
Speaker 2: when I get in trouble is when I start to
Speaker 2: force the cut and he's like, I'm trying to not
Speaker 2: do that. It's really interesting take really interesting video for
Speaker 2: a guy that I said two and a half weeks
Speaker 2: ago i've been actually at the beginning of the season,
Speaker 2: said bye because and I had nothing for you. I
Speaker 2: had no good reasoning for you, except that I believe
Speaker 2: he will bounce back. And then we started seeing some
Speaker 2: actionable items and we're seeing some data that proves it
Speaker 2: over the last three starts. Hopefully you did very interesting
Speaker 2: with the Corbyn burns and he much he very much
Speaker 2: looks like the part of that picture, that great version
Speaker 2: of that picture from last year.
Speaker 1: A DJ posey subbed with prime thanks for someone with
Speaker 1: us wiki scratched the downs yesterday. JP's here is oh
Speaker 1: my god, he didn't leave anything down. Everything was up
Speaker 1: and it all got hit out of the ball bar.
Speaker 1: And you have four homers yes day. Carson Palmquist, which
Speaker 1: is I find that name just very uncomfortable. Ten hits,
Speaker 1: seven runs, six earned. I don't know, Carson Palmquist. It
Speaker 1: sounds like a like a you know when you go
Speaker 1: to like a supermarket that's like off brand, like the
Speaker 1: Dollar Store or something, and they have food in their
Speaker 1: rocket yeah, like Pomquist is like one of those weird
Speaker 1: soda brands, and it.
Speaker 2: Sounds like the new student at the school, Like everybody,
Speaker 2: could you please welcome Carson Palmquist. He's coming from us
Speaker 2: from Tennessee.
Speaker 1: Yes, he enjoys Minecraft and he's runner. Yeah. Logan Web
Speaker 1: six runs. Of course. Of course, this is the one
Speaker 1: bad start Logan Web has had because I made it
Speaker 1: the bet of the day yesterday. Just awful. He had
Speaker 1: an e RA under one in all four of his
Speaker 1: home starts before this. Just brutal.
Speaker 2: I didn't even want to talk about it.
Speaker 1: So the betting has been rough this year. It's just
Speaker 1: it just has. But we're up to eleven homers. I
Speaker 1: don't know what's what's what do you have to have
Speaker 1: to get the board? Well, we'll see, we'll see in this.
Speaker 2: Sex fourteen fifteen.
Speaker 1: Let's get to the injuries. Ronald Akoia one for four
Speaker 1: with a walk, so getting closer on him. Santander was
Speaker 1: removed yesterday. He's been dealing with a hip injury, but
Speaker 1: he was removed yesterday later in the game. I think
Speaker 1: it was just precautionary because they were up by two
Speaker 1: touchdowns in that game. I think by the time he
Speaker 1: came out, so not so bad. Aaron Savali, Up, am
Speaker 1: I back?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're back. I had silent and then I looked
Speaker 2: at the screen and you were like this, You were like.
Speaker 1: Got fuzzy. Yeah, okay, Aaron Savali, I almost forgot. He
Speaker 1: was in the system for the Brewers Minor League REEP
Speaker 1: start for him in Triple A. Cutter Crawford, He's gonna
Speaker 1: face hitters today, Tanner Hawk on Friday. He's going to
Speaker 1: resume Throe and Rome Gonzalez with that quad is going
Speaker 1: to be out longer than anticipated. I guess he had
Speaker 1: a setback. Mike Trout is running at eighty percent. I
Speaker 1: don't know how you gauge that, but apparently not eighty one,
Speaker 1: not seventy nine eighty percent.
Speaker 2: We I would love this. I'm asking for too much here.
Speaker 2: I want what is the game on the prices right
Speaker 2: the yodeler where the guy's going up there. I want
Speaker 2: that with Mike Trout's face on it, and it's just
Speaker 2: I can't remember what that's called, but that's that should
Speaker 2: be our injury tracker for Mike Trout getting back in
Speaker 2: and he's just his hangers.
Speaker 1: Cliff Half hanger.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exact.
Speaker 1: Yoda, And it was as a kid, you'd love because
Speaker 1: it's it's the building of the drama. As it gets
Speaker 1: higher and higher up, the thing is it going to
Speaker 1: fall off? And the best he stops right at that peak,
Speaker 1: like one or two little notches away.
Speaker 2: Dude. Peak growing up in like the late nineties and
Speaker 2: early two thousands was being sick, not having to go
Speaker 2: to school or faking sick, sitting at home at like
Speaker 2: nine in the morning and watching Prices right and watching
Speaker 2: planko plank in the yodeler, and it just that was.
Speaker 1: Just yeah, that was the best, solid, very solid hat
Speaker 1: doubt about that. Next up, we have a Jonah Him
Speaker 1: who came out yesterday with a hand injury. They said
Speaker 1: it was a nerve issue, So more to come on that.
Speaker 1: Tyler Glass now is gonna throw a bullpensession Friday. Tario
Speaker 1: Strada has begun his rehab assignment, so look for him
Speaker 1: if you need some help at second base. He's probably
Speaker 1: floating around waiver wires. We were excited about him going
Speaker 1: into the season and then injury struck that wrist issue. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: Brandon Woodroft four shutout innings in his five hundred and
Speaker 1: seventy first rehab start of twenty twenty five, so we'll
Speaker 1: see if he's ready for another three hundred more. Dl Hall. Also,
Speaker 1: because the Brewsers have all these pictures and re Brewers
Speaker 1: have the greatest triple a rotation of all time, dal
Speaker 1: Hall three more shoutout innings for him and Verlander headed
Speaker 1: to the il with the pectoral discomfort that we discussed yesterday.
Speaker 1: So Welsh, any of these injuries stick out more than
Speaker 1: another one to you.
Speaker 2: The jonah Haeimwan I was watching live and the announcer
Speaker 2: immediately I want to say, maybe he didn't have his
Speaker 2: glove on or something, And as soon as it hit
Speaker 2: he was like, Ooh, that's gonna be really bad. The
Speaker 2: vibration you get on the hand, he's gonna be feeling that.
Speaker 2: And then for the next like five minutes they kept
Speaker 2: kind of going back. They're like, yeah, he's favoring he's
Speaker 2: favoring it, and then they took him out. So there
Speaker 2: might be something more beyond that. I'd be a little
Speaker 2: bit worried about, but thyro Estrado would be someone I
Speaker 2: would go and pick up right now if he's available.
Speaker 2: And then got just kicked to the wire. Just remember
Speaker 2: from that, you know, there's the ballpark perspective, but also
Speaker 2: there's some loud potential counting stats out of him batting
Speaker 2: averages there, and they've been talking about moving off of
Speaker 2: guys like Ryan McMahon trades and stuff. Either way, there's
Speaker 2: gonna be playing time for Thyrostrata. So I would go
Speaker 2: and pick him up, especially with that rehab assignment, assuming
Speaker 2: you might need a little bit longer, which I don't
Speaker 2: think they should do, but I would pick him up
Speaker 2: assuming that like midnext week is a possibility, if not
Speaker 2: the following week.
Speaker 1: The other thing, when I was homesick after a price
Speaker 1: is right, I used to have a VHS tape They
Speaker 1: did like a marathon of like the Baseball Bunch, And
Speaker 1: again I don't know if you know what this show is,
Speaker 1: Johnny Bench, the Baseball Bunch. It was these kids and
Speaker 1: Johnny Bench. It was like the early eighties, and every
Speaker 1: show it was like a half hour little baseball show.
Speaker 1: And they would it was the San Diego Chicken, Johnny
Speaker 1: Bench and these Rando kids and they every the top
Speaker 1: receiver and Pete Rose like all these like stars would
Speaker 1: be on there and they would come on and do
Speaker 1: baseball stuff with them. It was like a little baseball
Speaker 1: comedy instruction show. The Baseball bunch.
Speaker 2: Was do that with max velocity, Max Max max velocity
Speaker 2: and friends. I'll do a modern version of that, all right.
Speaker 1: So let's get this one from a DJ. I picked
Speaker 1: up Narvares and Baldwin when we found out the controls
Speaker 1: at a fracture. Finger don't have room to keep them both,
Speaker 1: so Navarrees or Baldwin. Rest of season.
Speaker 2: Picked up Baldwin. I'll go with Baldwin.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Baldwin's been hot. It's kind of hard not to
Speaker 1: go with Baldwin at this point in time. All right, Welsh,
Speaker 1: it's that time again. It's time for the Best Bets
Speaker 1: of Thursday with Joey P and Welsh.
Speaker 2: Frozen Joe, what a beautiful Your bets were a little
Speaker 2: frozen yesterday, Joe. I believe mine were pretty solid. I
Speaker 2: was two and zero with one push, so I will
Speaker 2: take that Joe's back. Let's hear what you got. Oh,
Speaker 2: you're living on the dangerous side.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know why Ranger Suarez over a five
Speaker 1: and a half strikeouts. He's not a big strikeout as
Speaker 1: they won as one eight team, but it's the Rockies
Speaker 1: and they make everybody look like Sandy Kofax Raphfield Devers.
Speaker 1: Let's go for the RBI plus one fifty five. He's
Speaker 1: springing a good bat right now. And Marcelo Zuna in
Speaker 1: a good matchup tonight for the Atlanta Braves. Let's go
Speaker 1: for RBI for him as well, plus one point twenty Welsh,
Speaker 1: what do you have for the people?
Speaker 2: I got a total base fest that we're going to
Speaker 2: rock in today. We got some early games, we got
Speaker 2: some really tight lines, some really tight first fives that
Speaker 2: we're going to jump into the total base market with
Speaker 2: some win pushing some of these games out there. We're
Speaker 2: going to start it off with Kerry Carpenter over one
Speaker 2: and a half total bases plus one fifteen against Ridings.
Speaker 2: He's always money, I believe you know. It's really low
Speaker 2: home run markers as well, so I love Kerry Carpenter.
Speaker 2: This is probably one of the best. This reminds me
Speaker 2: of yesterday's Corbyn Burns where I played it at plus
Speaker 2: one forty or one fifty for five and a half
Speaker 2: strikeouts and it hit James Wood over one point five
Speaker 2: total bases at plus one fifty. I very much like
Speaker 2: this matchup, really really good marker for him. And we're
Speaker 2: gonna go back to Gunner who Gunner didn't give me
Speaker 2: the homer the other day, but he did give me
Speaker 2: the actual bases, So we are gonna rock over one
Speaker 2: and a half total bases on Gunner Henderson, every single
Speaker 2: one of these app plus money. Let's play them ount
Speaker 2: and let's get on base with Carpenter, Wood and Gunner.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the home run board before
Speaker 1: we do. Quick shout out too. If you're looking to

Speaker 2: Yeah, you need to get to fifteen. By the time
Speaker 2: you're up there, it's gonna push. But honestly, the machine
Speaker 2: might be the number. I'm on thin ice right now,
Speaker 2: like I'm barely holding on so and I have not
Speaker 2: had a homer and I don't know what the account
Speaker 2: is currently. It has to be at least ten days.
Speaker 1: I have like one Soto cold right now. That's how
Speaker 1: cold you are. Oh, you're Christian Yelich cold. Mary's still
Speaker 1: at the top of twenty one, with George tied far
Speaker 1: out at twenty, DJ Osbourne at twenty. Wonkee's moved all
Speaker 1: the way down to seventh spot here with eighteen, so
Speaker 1: Welsh's still hanging in there, still on the board. You've
Speaker 1: been on board for a long time. You should be
Speaker 1: very proud of yourself. I am going to go with
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Philly today for my home run this afternoon. Kyle
Speaker 1: Schwarber was also on fire plus two thirty five. He's
Speaker 1: got good career numbers against the Colorado Pictchers going against today,
Speaker 1: and I'm just gonna keep pounding on that Philadelphia Philly
Speaker 1: line up as much as I possibly can. I almost
Speaker 1: a Castighanos today too, So going back and forth. But
Speaker 1: let's go with Schwarber. Where are you going Welsh for
Speaker 1: your home run call?
Speaker 2: I'm joining you on that one. I'm taking a Schwarberfest.
Speaker 2: So we're gonna okay, this is gonna be one of
Speaker 2: those block situations where if we're going up, we're going
Speaker 2: up together. Schwarberfest is upon us. It's in Colorado. Her
Speaker 2: Man Marquez got an eight e RA. I could have
Speaker 2: maybe picked Harper, but we might go two for with
Speaker 2: Kyle Schwarber's So Schwarberfest for the leading off combo home
Speaker 2: run play.
Speaker 1: The two more will put me at thirteen before the weekend.
Speaker 1: I like the sound sall base bet.
Speaker 2: By the way, you have to bet three they want.
Speaker 2: If you want plus money, you've got to go to
Speaker 2: three to, which is what saw that.
Speaker 1: It was like minus money for RBI two, which is
Speaker 1: never Yeah, you never get for RBI. It's Vegas telling
