Speaker 1: Is leading off Live brought you by Prize Pig. Sign
Speaker 1: up for Prize Pig today and use that promo code
Speaker 1: leading off.
Speaker 2: When you do, it's me, of course, and the Welsh
Speaker 2: and it's you, and it's back to business.
Speaker 1: It's Monday.
Speaker 2: Happy Father's Day out there, related to all the dads
Speaker 2: out there, hope you had a nice Father's Day. I
Speaker 2: spent my Father's day coaching my daughter's flag football teams,
Speaker 2: which was great fun.
Speaker 1: We had a great Sunday. It was a beautiful time.
Speaker 2: Welsh said he did nothing, which is exactly what he
Speaker 2: wanted to do.
Speaker 1: But Welsh, the opposite of.
Speaker 2: Nothing is going on in the chat we have once
Speaker 2: again before you even start the show, We've got about
Speaker 2: eighty messages in here. I see people making trades, people
Speaker 2: talking about stuff, and we're getting really close. We're at
Speaker 2: thirteen point nine now, we are less than one hundred
Speaker 2: subs away from mustache Day here on the show.
Speaker 3: But Joe's Great Mustache, right is what it's called.
Speaker 1: That is not what we're calling it.
Speaker 2: But yes, there will be mustaches if we get to
Speaker 2: fourteen thousand subs by the end of the month.
Speaker 1: Now we got some time here, Welsh I think this
Speaker 1: crew can do it. What do you think I think?
Speaker 3: So? I mean I am shaved, everyone can see. It
Speaker 3: takes me quite a bit longer then yeah, completely just
Speaker 3: topped bottom, rip it off. Father's Days yeah mm hmm. Yeah,
Speaker 3: because I'm going to be doing a swimming competition, that's right.
Speaker 3: Can you imagine just a speed? It's just what an
Speaker 3: absolute nightmare fuel But yes, I have time to grow
Speaker 3: it back. If you guys want to get the subscribing
Speaker 3: and liking and all that up so we can get
Speaker 3: to fourteen, we will have the Great Mustache Extravaganza. Mustache bros.
Speaker 2: You know what the funny part is, you know, speaking
Speaker 2: of Dad's and Father's Day and all that stuff. I've
Speaker 2: never seen my father without a mustache in my entire life.
Speaker 2: That's always my entire life. I've never seen him clean shaven.
Speaker 1: Ever.
Speaker 3: That's always so weird too, when someone has established like
Speaker 3: a look that is always that look forever, and then
Speaker 3: it's completely dry. My uncle kind of did the similar
Speaker 3: thing and then like when you would shave it, I
Speaker 3: could shave like thirty years later, You're like, what is
Speaker 3: going on? He should change it up? Can you think
Speaker 3: it could grow back quick.
Speaker 2: I'm sure it can, but I mean, I guess the
Speaker 2: bigger point is, it's just it's like even Tom Selick
Speaker 2: shaved his mustache for.
Speaker 3: A little while, you know, I mean, did that have
Speaker 3: any big movie roles.
Speaker 2: Not that I know of, not that I know of,
Speaker 2: But they would not call it anything about mustache rides.
Speaker 1: I can tell you that. Let's get to.
Speaker 2: The headlines, and we have to start with Lance Linn
Speaker 2: because there's a bunch of wacky headlines from this weekend,
Speaker 2: a bunch of the upside down. I think we were
Speaker 2: living and Lance Linn had sixteen strikeouts. I can't even
Speaker 2: say it because it's so absurd. He had sixteen strikeouts
Speaker 2: over seven innings. He didn't get the win in this game.
Speaker 1: No, no, no.
Speaker 2: The White Sox continue to be just the most bizarre
Speaker 2: team that I've experienced in quite some time.
Speaker 1: I feel bad for White Sox fans.
Speaker 2: You have Tim Anderson dealing with another injury now, so
Speaker 2: he wasn't in the lineup this weekend. But you know
Speaker 2: the Lance lid you look at, he goes towards the
Speaker 2: top in terms of strikeouts on the year. The strikeouts
Speaker 2: were never an issue that Eri is still kind of
Speaker 2: absurdly high.
Speaker 1: So I think we have to ask ourselves right now.
Speaker 2: It is the nineteenth of June and again the happy
Speaker 2: June tenth to all they're celebrating. My question to you
Speaker 2: is this rest of season, Lancelim? Is this a player
Speaker 2: that you want or do you want to trade him
Speaker 2: off of this sixteen strikeout performance? And if you still
Speaker 2: somehow have him on your roster or someone dropped him
Speaker 2: and you picked him up, is this the time to
Speaker 2: get out?
Speaker 3: I don't know, that's like probably the question. Let me
Speaker 3: give you, real quick some more absurdities with him before
Speaker 3: we moved through, because I did a audible like like
Speaker 3: like just like audibly freaked out when I looked behind
Speaker 3: the scenes. He had thirty three swinging whiffs in this game,
Speaker 3: a fifty four percent with freight fifty four. That's crazy.
Speaker 3: He had he technically registers six different pitches. He had
Speaker 3: four more whiffs on five of the six, already eight
Speaker 3: percent CSW. Every single pitch that was used double digit
Speaker 3: had over thirty five percent CSW percent. It was like
Speaker 3: a crazy performance where this is definitely the big sell
Speaker 3: high opportunity. And I don't know if you saw over
Speaker 3: the week, and the White Sox also did a They're
Speaker 3: not this is what kind of annoys me. They're not
Speaker 3: willing to sell off at least at this moment. They'll
Speaker 3: only sell like ancillary rental pieces right now, so they're
Speaker 3: not going to go into a tank and maybe move
Speaker 3: these players. But I think lance Lynn showed us exactly
Speaker 3: why you can sit around and roster him. If someone's
Speaker 3: willing to buy high because of sixteen strikeouts, I think
Speaker 3: that's great and you probably should. But at the same time,
Speaker 3: I think he lives above waiver wire or streamable fodder,
Speaker 3: and these strikeouts are the type of things you can get,
Speaker 3: So he's like one of these, like big strikeout guys
Speaker 3: or a guy that hits two fifteen like Kyle Schwarber,
Speaker 3: but can have five homers in a week. I think
Speaker 3: he can. He can push you up on a really
Speaker 3: great matchup for strikeouts more than anybody else, So I
Speaker 3: think you can hold on to him. If the trade
Speaker 3: market doesn't look really solid for him and people are
Speaker 3: just trying to trade your garbage, I might be willing
Speaker 3: to hold Do.
Speaker 2: You think a contender wants lands Linn like either that
Speaker 2: the Dodgers or the break even the Phillies would be
Speaker 2: interested in Linn.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the Diamondbacks would kill. The back end
Speaker 3: of the rotations would be a good spot too. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I think the teams like that would one hundred percent.
Speaker 3: Because he's a guy that eats up innings can theoretically,
Speaker 3: if he's going good, can get you out of the bullpen.
Speaker 3: This guy threw hilariously though still like fifteen pitches less
Speaker 3: than what Paul Skeens has been throwing in the College
Speaker 3: World Series, but he threw one hundred and fourteen pitches
Speaker 3: in this game. So to have a guy that can
Speaker 3: go that deep, whether it's good or bad, it's a
Speaker 3: huge positive, you know, even if he's giving up three
Speaker 3: or four earned runs, to be able to avoid your
Speaker 3: bullpen like that, Yeah, one hundred percent.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting to see what he does the
Speaker 1: rest of the time.
Speaker 2: Blake Snell has been very interesting to another twelve strikeout
Speaker 2: performance for Blake Snell Welsh, I don't know what to say.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, in April, this guy is uh
Speaker 2: is just terrible. I mean, I mean, like, let's not
Speaker 2: mince worries about it. There's there's nothing good there that
Speaker 2: you can possibly say, and then he starts to find it,
Speaker 2: and then it gets to this point where it's absurdly good,
Speaker 2: Like not a little good, it's absurdly good.
Speaker 1: And I just this is the kind of picture drives
Speaker 1: me crazy.
Speaker 2: And I understand you know how so many people you
Speaker 2: know always love Blake Snell and they like, this is
Speaker 2: the upside, This is what I want, man, in your opinion,
Speaker 2: as I'm trying to actually look here, in the last
Speaker 2: twenty eight days, Blake Snell has a point six zero
Speaker 2: era where his last five starts forty five strikeouts and
Speaker 2: thirty innings and a point nine zero whip. That is incredible.
Speaker 2: I think we can all agree on that. Then if
Speaker 2: you look at the breakdown in terms of month by month, right,
Speaker 2: he had an era in April of five point four eight,
Speaker 2: in era of May of three point a two, and
Speaker 2: so far the June era is point four to seven
Speaker 2: Welsh your thoughts.
Speaker 3: I mean, I was like I kind of got him wrong,
Speaker 3: like throughout the year, because I was if you watch
Speaker 3: the trade videos, I was buying him early in the
Speaker 3: year because we know he go I didn't think like
Speaker 3: he was gonna be this dramatic of a crap fest
Speaker 3: early on and then it was going to turn as
Speaker 3: hard as it did. So I was buying him earlier
Speaker 3: and that was a mistake. And now you're looking at
Speaker 3: what he's doing and it's crazy. You know what it's
Speaker 3: hilarious too, is everybody for last two years has been like,
Speaker 3: just don't throw the change. Yeah, everyone's like complaining about
Speaker 3: all that, especially the big pitching guys, So just don't
Speaker 3: throw that change up. It was the second most used
Speaker 3: pitch over twenty two percent in his last start, and
Speaker 3: it had a sixty four percent with rate and the
Speaker 3: highest CSW percentage of any of them. So he's kind
Speaker 3: of going back to what he's wanted to do and
Speaker 3: he's found consistency with it. But like, does this scream
Speaker 3: sell now? Yeah, because he is so wildly swinging up
Speaker 3: and down. Like I think Blake snell Man is a
Speaker 3: good pitcher and he has big strike that's kind of
Speaker 3: like exactly what we talked about with Lancelinn, but with
Speaker 3: a better offense. The only difference he's crazy, inconsistent and
Speaker 3: he loses his feel like dramatically. But is it possible
Speaker 3: that he holds on through the rest of the season.
Speaker 3: It is So come back to the Lance Lenn conversation.
Speaker 3: What is someone willing to spend on a Blake Snell
Speaker 3: who was so bad, cuddable bad through the first you
Speaker 3: know what, six weeks and then has strung together quite
Speaker 3: a few really good starts. Is it gonna be worth
Speaker 3: what you could get out of him? That? I don't know,
Speaker 3: But I'm a little bit of a risk taker, so
Speaker 3: I might be willing to, you know, roll with my
Speaker 3: Blake Snell if the offers aren't really solid lanceln or
Speaker 3: Blake Snell rest of season.
Speaker 1: A Blake Snell, I mean, because I believe in the padres.
Speaker 2: And I think that's the next point of this, which
Speaker 2: is now that Blake Snell's figured it out, Waka has
Speaker 2: been great, Musgrove starting to you know, hopefully we'll keep
Speaker 2: it on that el elbow.
Speaker 1: Oh you almost did it. You almost did it.
Speaker 3: And right when you got to Musgrove too, that's so weird,
Speaker 3: right when you got to Musgrove. Yeah, no, but you
Speaker 3: can here's time.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: So the other thing was, you know, you Darvish, you
Speaker 2: got Sodo, you know, looking like Sodo again. Tatista has
Speaker 2: been red hot, but shadohealthy again. The Padres are gonna
Speaker 2: make a run. There's too much talent on that team
Speaker 2: not to make a run. They have the bullpen guy,
Speaker 2: they have everything. All they need to do is just
Speaker 2: play better baseball, and they have not. And they're gonna
Speaker 2: be incredibly dangerous if they play really good baseball in
Speaker 2: the second half into the playoffs. Because that team with
Speaker 2: Snell must Grove and Darvish at the top of that,
Speaker 2: you know, playoff.
Speaker 1: Rotation, They're gonna be a lot to handle. Now's a
Speaker 1: great time to be making investments in the Padres.
Speaker 3: You know what I wonder, and this is speculative. I
Speaker 3: haven't heard anything. I would love someone to ask him.
Speaker 3: I wonder if you know, because like Waka has lived
Speaker 3: off of this change up. It's it's a ridiculously good
Speaker 3: change up that I wonder if Snell had a conversation
Speaker 3: with him, because that has been one of the big
Speaker 3: difference makers. Snell always wants to throw a change up.
Speaker 3: It's never great or consistent, and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 3: Waka comes in, who's been great, and that change up
Speaker 3: is kind of taking back over and becoming a dominant pitch.
Speaker 3: I just wonder if there's something, some type of tweak
Speaker 3: that's happened, and maybe it came internally from that pitching staff,
Speaker 3: because there's a lot of stuff. I mean, I thought
Speaker 3: I told you about how Musgrove was trying to readjust unchangeups.
Speaker 3: I just wonder if that's kind of changed the game
Speaker 3: a little bit. And that's something we can consider because
Speaker 3: I think a lot of people are gonna look and
Speaker 3: be like this cool. Snell's going right now, He's going
Speaker 3: to completely fall apart. But what if there has been
Speaker 3: some long standing mechanical change, either in the delivery or
Speaker 3: specific pitch like the change up.
Speaker 1: But you know this is I mean, Blake snells want
Speaker 1: to cy young.
Speaker 2: I mean, he's That's the frustration with Snell is that
Speaker 2: he is capable of being great, not good, but great,
Speaker 2: and the frustrating thing is to watch him be way
Speaker 2: less than great for long stretches at a time, and
Speaker 2: it just seems like an annual occurrence. So head to
Speaker 2: head formats, he's a tough roster. I think he's one
Speaker 2: of these guys that if I'm in the season long road,
Speaker 2: oh I'm okay with Blake Snell because.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna know.
Speaker 2: So there's some terrible lumps around, you know, along the road,
Speaker 2: and there was I think I just made a welshism.
Speaker 2: I think it's terrible lumps, lumps or bumps along the road.
Speaker 2: It's lumps along the road. So I just made my
Speaker 2: first welshism. This is what happens when we do.
Speaker 3: A show is long. He's lamp. He's in my head.
Speaker 1: Also tremendous.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Six innings of Hitler's baseball. Not too shabby here.
Speaker 2: Welsh Brian Bello was also good this weekend against the
Speaker 2: Yankees last night, one run, four hits, pretty good, got
Speaker 2: the w Justin Steele came back, so everybody was holding
Speaker 2: their breath, including me.
Speaker 1: Uh, he was very solid to run.
Speaker 3: Do you the Justin Steel face? Do your steel my.
Speaker 1: Blue steel face.
Speaker 3: It's just blue steel. But I know, but do blue steel. Yeah,
Speaker 3: there you go, that's just.
Speaker 1: Blue steel existed. I'm just saying that.
Speaker 3: Actually, if you if people go back and look, well,
Speaker 3: I don't know the timeline. One of the greatest things
Speaker 3: and let me give a plug. The greatest things you
Speaker 3: can do in purchasing the Fantasy Black Book, whether it's
Speaker 3: the baseball, the football that's out right now over on
Speaker 3: Amazon is getting the blue steel photo of Joe Pie's
Speaker 3: a Pia is worth it every single time, every sixty
Speaker 3: of the time, every time where he's.
Speaker 1: All the time. Juliote Ron also it's like one hundred
Speaker 1: percent of the time works all the time. Another w
Speaker 1: for him.
Speaker 2: Who would you rather have rest of the season, Ryan
Speaker 2: Bellow or Julio Tehran?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 3: Probably bao I. Julio te Ron is fun. I don't
Speaker 3: think I'm gonna I'm gonna stick with that all see.
Speaker 3: I think he's really good right now. It's this is
Speaker 3: a good, fun, streamable thing. I just don't think it's
Speaker 3: gonna last.
Speaker 1: I'm so hot right now, That's what Bet says. All right,
Speaker 1: let's get to the rookie. Lookie.
Speaker 2: Mark Vientos was sent down because somehow we got Pete
Speaker 2: Alonzo activate from the IL Like.
Speaker 1: I looked up and I said, why when? Why? Who?
Speaker 2: I was completely confused, as everybody they said, like a month.
Speaker 2: Now all of a sudden he's back. This scares the
Speaker 2: crap out of me, and I love a Lonzo is
Speaker 2: a tough guy.
Speaker 3: But oh, you think it's gonna fall apart?
Speaker 2: I don't know, man, I think it's desperation. That's what
Speaker 2: it feels like to me. Uh, the pirates. Everybody's a
Speaker 2: buzz because we got a lot of catcher promotions. We
Speaker 2: got Bo Naylor and then Henry Davis twenty one excuse me,
Speaker 2: MLB draft first overall selection.
Speaker 1: He's twenty three years old.
Speaker 2: He hit two eighty four with a four to thirty three,
Speaker 2: five fifty one slash, eleven homer, nine steals.
Speaker 1: You never get steals as a catcher.
Speaker 2: So how aggressive you know, are you on Davis after
Speaker 2: these really solid numbers at double and triple A this year.
Speaker 3: I don't know if I'd be super great. This is
Speaker 3: another one of those guys. You know you hear me
Speaker 3: talk about it, and you probably hear me talk about
Speaker 3: it so much because of the correlation. Another AFL guy.
Speaker 3: This is a guy that was in the AFL this
Speaker 3: past year. Was kind of like the main force for
Speaker 3: the local team right across the street. The surprise Suarros
Speaker 3: played catcher the whole time. I think he's actually a
Speaker 3: really good catcher, but the team has messed around. They've
Speaker 3: had him in the outfield. Made a really nice diving
Speaker 3: catch the other day. Strikeouts for his problem, but he's
Speaker 3: lowered that he had an under twenty percent at double A,
Speaker 3: which I love. The power's always been there. The guy
Speaker 3: can run. He did that back in his Louis Louisville days.
Speaker 3: I just don't think this is this isn't gonna be
Speaker 3: like real Muto, which it feels like when you look
Speaker 3: at it, you like all those stolen bases and look
Speaker 3: at those homers. I don't think so. I think he's
Speaker 3: at best like average as far as like what he's
Speaker 3: going to be in the outfield. There's definitely pop though,
Speaker 3: but I do worry about some of the strikeout issues,
Speaker 3: kind of being like a long term fantasy type of thing.
Speaker 3: So am I in sure? But am I being aggressive
Speaker 3: like some of these other guys. Nah, we're getting inundated
Speaker 3: with a lot of the players. I like him a
Speaker 3: little bit more than bow Naylor, but Bo Naylor's got
Speaker 3: a little bit more power in the tank there can
Speaker 3: also run pretty athletic. Actually, you know what, they're probably
Speaker 3: about the same. I feel like I could talk myself
Speaker 3: into Naylor, maybe even him hitting a little bit higher
Speaker 3: in that lineup, looking for you know, some more offense
Speaker 3: for the Guardians. But maybe if I had a catching
Speaker 3: need to catch your league. I put both the same
Speaker 3: bids little hyper like little tiny thingy bit more aggressive
Speaker 3: and put the same bit on both and just happy
Speaker 3: with which for one I get our good friend.
Speaker 2: Friend of the show, Craig Nish reported that Eurie Perez
Speaker 2: is going to remain in the Marlins rotation.
Speaker 1: Edward Cabrera in case you're missing over the weekend, it's crazy.
Speaker 2: I had an injury, so he is going to be
Speaker 2: on the fifteen day iol with the right shoulder impingement,
Speaker 2: which is never a good thing.
Speaker 1: So Perez for the time being.
Speaker 2: Again, these innings are going to accumulate at some points,
Speaker 2: going to end.
Speaker 1: The Marlins run has been fun. Welsh.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I continue to tell everybody this is a paper tiger.
Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now. If you don't think it is,
Speaker 2: and you are crazy. The Braves are by far the
Speaker 2: class of this division. The Braves are going to run
Speaker 2: away with this division. I think the Mets are done.
Speaker 2: I think the Phillies are last gasping and the Marlins
Speaker 2: are going to fall apart at some point.
Speaker 3: I'm really worried about that. This one stinks for head
Speaker 3: to head guys, because what this all but assures we're
Speaker 3: not getting Urie Perez into the fantasy playoffs or when
Speaker 3: it's important, because the whole point of this was like
Speaker 3: they were going to send him down manage the ending.
Speaker 3: I mean, maybe they would have screwed us in the end,
Speaker 3: and you know, he would have been in some type
Speaker 3: of like relief or piggyback role. But this assures it now,
Speaker 3: like the idea of what they were going to do
Speaker 3: maybe would have saved it. We're guaranteed this now. If
Speaker 3: he's going to stay into the rotation, these really valuable
Speaker 3: innings are gonna get ate up unless the team wants
Speaker 3: to buck the trend and be like he can go
Speaker 3: well over his innings and they're not going to cap
Speaker 3: them whatsoever, which I don't think they're gonna do. So
Speaker 3: I think this is kind of a this is a
Speaker 3: death blow to end of season, head to head Uri
Speaker 3: Prez stuff, and I'd probably be in redraft looking to
Speaker 3: you know, if you can still move him, maybe you
Speaker 3: can still get some great innings. I still think he's
Speaker 3: one of the best rookie pitchers, but I just don't
Speaker 3: see him being around now. Towards the back end, though,
Speaker 3: I would point out like Cuato is coming soon, so
Speaker 3: you gotta wonder they say they're going to keep him
Speaker 3: in the rotation. Maybe that's only a start or two.
Speaker 3: I don't know if mission touched on that when quota.
Speaker 2: Is not not in this update anyway, I could text
Speaker 2: Craig because I'm cool, because I just you know, throw
Speaker 2: out stuff like that. I thix him and find out.
Speaker 2: But if you really want to know, I know a guy.
Speaker 2: Guardians put Tristan. Tristan McKenzie right back on the il
Speaker 2: with a right elbow sprain. This is always the concern
Speaker 2: with Tristan McKenzie heading into this year or two was
Speaker 2: always the frame the body. You know, last year was
Speaker 2: really good. He had struggled with injuries in the minor leagues.
Speaker 2: He had a really good, full clean season last year.
Speaker 2: This year it's been anything but. So it's unfortunate.
Speaker 3: Look for Gavin. Look for Gavin, that's a great question.
Speaker 3: I think everybody kind of knows that's possibility. I had
Speaker 3: someone that is like in Connecty kind of tell me
Speaker 3: that you should be on the lookout for Gavin within
Speaker 3: the next two weeks because of this move. And they
Speaker 3: didn't make the move for him early on and they've got,
Speaker 3: you know, kind of like a side plan. But I
Speaker 3: do think there's a possibility that in the next ten
Speaker 3: days we do see Gavin. So all I'm saying is
Speaker 3: I personally would probably try to preemptively add Gavin Williams
Speaker 3: where I can in case this does happen.
Speaker 2: Fair enough, let's continue on here to the next one,
Speaker 2: to Sean Murphy. Sorry getting texts from the important thing.
Speaker 3: Not Craigmish, Oh Craig, miss.
Speaker 1: Craignish, now Alex Cobb.
Speaker 2: On the fifteen day, I al Sean Murphy also with
Speaker 2: the hamstring injury, so keep an eye on that. And
Speaker 2: then Julio Urius. We're waiting on him and Daniel Hudson.
Speaker 2: They could be activated later this month. We'll see if that,
Speaker 2: you know, works.
Speaker 3: Out or I have seeing I don't know what the
Speaker 3: deal is. But Daniel Hudson is doing all his rehab here.
Speaker 3: He's thrown four James in the Arizona Complex. Yeah, yeah, yes,
Speaker 3: at my house. I'm letting him him in into the backyard,
Speaker 3: throw the ball into the pool. It's totally fine. He's
Speaker 3: thrown like four games in the complex. And why I
Speaker 3: think he's getting close is they just had him pitch
Speaker 3: like in like two out of three days in the complex,
Speaker 3: and I've watched two of them. He's ridiculous right now,
Speaker 3: of course, because he's going to getst like seventeen eighteen
Speaker 3: year old kids. But they're starting to have him go
Speaker 3: back to back day or back to back or close
Speaker 3: to back to back days. So I'm gonna guess this
Speaker 3: is going to like move him up, maybe a tiny bit,
Speaker 3: or maybe they just throw him right into action. But
Speaker 3: this is going to be very soon for Daniel Hudson.
Speaker 2: I know Cason was asking us to talk about the
Speaker 2: Cardinals casein for your own benefit. I don't think we
Speaker 2: should talk about the Cardinals like. I just don't think
Speaker 2: we should. I just I feel like it's enough already.
Speaker 1: Don't want to pile on.
Speaker 2: I want to talk about Joe's tough guys. Zach Remillard
Speaker 2: twenty nine years old. Zach Remillard made his major league
Speaker 2: debut at twenty nine years old, and he had a
Speaker 2: big hit three for three in fact, with a pair
Speaker 2: of RBI for the Chicago White Sox. So good Zach
Speaker 2: Remlar And by the way, he's a free square hitting
Speaker 2: at the top of the order tonight. So he's gonna
Speaker 2: be in the DFS discussion. Three up and three down
Speaker 2: from the weekend, we had a bunch of multiple home
Speaker 2: run games. Eddie Rosario had one, Ryan McMahon had a
Speaker 2: pair of homers of the game, and so did Nolan Aaronato's.
Speaker 2: If you have them in the home run contest, good
Speaker 2: for you. Also, Ethan is back from his illustrious vacation,
Speaker 2: which means that we have a home run board today,
Speaker 2: so we could see where everybody's stacking up. The three
Speaker 2: down Giancarlo stanton Oh for seven five strikeouts, Anthony volpi
Speaker 2: Oh for seven five strikeouts, and Tony Gonsolin, who Kelly
Speaker 2: Kirby The Wonky Penguin wrote about in the Cell High
Speaker 2: trade piece from last week's Fantasypros dot Com. It was
Speaker 2: basically saying, hey, Gonsolin's xcra is x FIP, all these
Speaker 2: numbers are telling you there's gonna be a regression. While
Speaker 2: there was seven earned runs later there was Tony Gonsolin. Ironically,
Speaker 2: he had a big strikeout total in that game, which
Speaker 2: you never see, so who knows. It was a very
Speaker 2: weird weekend of pitching. But with the Anthony volpie Oh
Speaker 2: for seven to five K performance. Welsh, I think it's
Speaker 2: time to clear the kid's head. I think you send
Speaker 2: them down for the rest of the month and July
Speaker 2: fourth you give him freedom again and bring him back.
Speaker 3: What do you think, Yeah, I mean I think it's time.
Speaker 3: I don't disagree. I feel like this was around the
Speaker 3: same time. I should go back and look and see
Speaker 3: what last year looked like, because I know it was
Speaker 3: like April and May were really bad and then sometime
Speaker 3: in Junet picked it back up. Maybe the play is
Speaker 3: you give him, let's say this week, and then next
Speaker 3: week you send him down and push that through the
Speaker 3: All Star break and just give him like that type
Speaker 3: of run, and then post All Star break you bring
Speaker 3: him back up. I'd say that's probably the possibility. It's
Speaker 3: a pretty pretty blue savant page, like, there's not a
Speaker 3: whole outside of him being fast. There's not a lot
Speaker 3: of redeeming factors on there. The strike up presented still
Speaker 3: being over thirty I think is probably one of the
Speaker 3: most worrisome, and there's really no favors being done as
Speaker 3: far as any of the expected stats in his favor.
Speaker 3: So outside of him being a big speed force, probably
Speaker 3: you know, knock his confidence a little bit, get Paraza
Speaker 3: up here and then bring them back in like three weeks.
Speaker 3: It's not a bad plan.
Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough, continuing on here, Welsh, It's that time again,
Speaker 2: boys and girls.
Speaker 1: Everybody loves this.
Speaker 2: Oh, let's pick some prizes Prize Picks. Download the app
Speaker 2: or go to prize picks dot com. You get one

Speaker 2: just like the Welsh. Welsh is super fun and a
Speaker 2: good time. I can't believe I had my first Welshism.
Speaker 2: I'm so proud of myself.
Speaker 3: I'm proud of you too.
Speaker 1: Take your lumps on the road. There you go. I
Speaker 1: want that log to for all the welshisms. If we're
Speaker 1: locking welshisms. By the way, Welsh where you're picking your
Speaker 1: prizes today?
Speaker 3: Should make a book. We should make a Welshism.
Speaker 1: Books and other absurdities.
Speaker 3: But like one of those like little little time books.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, like a little mini book and it's just
Speaker 3: like there's money. Yeah yeah, like one Welshism per pa.
Speaker 1: You can have a lot better.
Speaker 2: Yet, perhaps the real thing is a Welshism calendar, like
Speaker 2: a daily Welshism.
Speaker 1: I mean that would be pretty good.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And then I could just do like all my
Speaker 3: different looks, you know, like I have like a Jimmy neutron,
Speaker 3: and then I have like a couple of different hair,
Speaker 3: all the different halfs come out. Who wants eight? You know,
Speaker 3: we were talking about the shirt. We by the way,
Speaker 3: we need some more ideas. I don't know what's going
Speaker 3: on the shirt. Who wants a welshis and calendar? I
Speaker 3: don't know if we can make that happen, but I
Speaker 3: feel like it might possible.
Speaker 1: Maybe by the end of next year we can get there.
Speaker 3: No, but it was colet just month, It's just month.
Speaker 3: We'll have a like initially twelve good welshs.
Speaker 1: I was thinking one of those all those ones.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I don't have I don't even talk
Speaker 3: that we have to go on that.
Speaker 2: Maybe just the twelve twelve months of Welsh Yeah, anyway,
Speaker 2: we'll do something like that, all right.
Speaker 3: When you prize picks upon a star, I have got
Speaker 3: three for you today, my friends, And uh, these are
Speaker 3: all the funzi ones. These are all hitting ones.
Speaker 1: These are scores.
Speaker 3: I'm going with Ellie de la Cruz eight and a
Speaker 3: half fantasy score over. I love I love guys like
Speaker 3: him in these type of formats where you know, a
Speaker 3: walk into a strikeout into run, they could not get
Speaker 3: a hit, and they could hit their fantasy score just
Speaker 3: by getting on base that one time. That's also why
Speaker 3: I'm picking Corbyn Carroll even that's a little bit of
Speaker 3: a tougher matchup versus Corbyn Burns. There will only be
Speaker 3: one Corbyn. This is like Highlander, and the last name
Speaker 3: will be Carol. That'll end tonight, and then I'm gonna
Speaker 3: put Corey Seger in eight and a half fantasy score.
Speaker 3: So Ellie Corbyn, Carroll and Corey Seeger.
Speaker 1: By the way, Corbyn Carroll's on pace for a thirty
Speaker 1: forty season.
Speaker 2: They just want to point that out. Also, the roll
Speaker 2: of Cooney is on pace for a thirty sixty season.
Speaker 2: I also want to point that out, which is amazing.
Speaker 2: Wan Soto hitter Fantasy score eight over Marcus Simian seven
Speaker 2: and a half over for Nano Tattis Junior. It's high
Speaker 2: numbers nine, but it's an over. I think the potters
Speaker 2: are gonna hammer the Giants today betting wise a little
Speaker 2: lighter day.
Speaker 1: Here's what you do. You take the close money lines.
Speaker 2: There's a couple of them here San Diego minus win
Speaker 2: oh eight, that's good enough. You put Houston on the
Speaker 2: money line against the Mets because they stink, and then
Speaker 2: the Milwaukee Brewers at minus one twenty. You put them
Speaker 2: all together, you get.
Speaker 1: About five to one.
Speaker 2: So in Milwaukee, Houston, San Diego. You can bet them
Speaker 2: all individually at higher numbers. That way, if you get
Speaker 2: two out of three, like meet Lof said, that ain't bad,
Speaker 2: you still at least break even. And if you put
Speaker 2: a smaller number on the parlay, you.
Speaker 1: Have a little bonus.
Speaker 2: So you get That's the way you do it. You
Speaker 2: get your money for nothing and your chicks for free.
Speaker 1: There you go.
Speaker 2: That's two eighty songs references for you in one betting segment. Also,
Speaker 2: Hunter Brown five and a half strikeouts. I like the
Speaker 2: over against the Mets.
Speaker 1: Welsh, what do you like in the betting world today?
Speaker 3: You made me think of that the office space bone.
Speaker 3: Would you do with a million dollars? Two jigs ones?
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what I do, man. That's all you do. Yeah, man,
Speaker 3: all right, my couple of my bets here. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: go with Detroit up by a run through the first five,
Speaker 3: kind of like Reese Oulsen minus one fifteen. That is,
Speaker 3: I'm taking two strikeout options that are kind of juiced up.
Speaker 3: Neither do I really particularly love individually that i'd want
Speaker 3: to lay, like minus one fifty one to forty five.
Speaker 3: I'll put them together to a little k prop today
Speaker 3: Michael Waka and Reese Olsen. That gets you almost two
Speaker 3: to one, and my favorite Texas money line minus one today.
Speaker 2: Okay, moving on to the DFS world before we do,
Speaker 2: don't forget there's lots of other ways to play fantasy baseball,
Speaker 2: including so rare dot com. So go to Fantasypros dot

Speaker 2: different people and then continue your season on and it's
Speaker 2: a good time. There's also going to be some giveaways
Speaker 2: to MLBtv down the stretch. Everybody likes that, so go
Speaker 2: try to do that. DFS World Corbyn Burns ten point six,
Speaker 2: Hunter Brown at nine point eight against the Mets. That's
Speaker 2: my sweet spot. I like that, even though the Astros
Speaker 2: lineup is a little man right now. Sure as there's
Speaker 2: been terrible the last three starts, I'm going after him.
Speaker 1: I don't care. And once you get to that met bullpen,
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: And then if you don't like Burns, who's been really
Speaker 2: good lately, or you don't like Brown, there's Michael Waca,
Speaker 2: which is kind of fishing a barrel tonight against San
Speaker 2: fran I think so ten ten k for him.
Speaker 1: Texas and San Diego where I'm looking for offense.
Speaker 2: Jake Cronworth is two point eight, kil Off is two
Speaker 2: point eight.
Speaker 1: And Zach Remillard free square alert ding ding ding two
Speaker 1: point oh.
Speaker 2: So that's why you're laying down, you know, like a
Speaker 2: little remolad. You know, you get the shrimp, uh, you know,
Speaker 2: with the shrimp. You get the remolade with it.
Speaker 3: I think I was thinking rimalard was more like it
Speaker 3: was like a jelly type of thing. I was thinking,
Speaker 3: but yeah, you're a fish marmalade. Yeah, I was thinking,
Speaker 3: it's not a marmaladeish to me.
Speaker 1: There's another Welsh I love cocona with marmalade.
Speaker 3: With marmadade again, and our our ever looking food element
Speaker 3: of players. We're looking for food based players. We need
Speaker 3: a marmalade player.
Speaker 2: Who doesn't yeh, creole lady marmalade. Maybe even there you go,
Speaker 2: there's three that might be a seventies reference.
Speaker 3: So runs the home runs.
Speaker 2: Bring Razor Ramone twenty seven. Look at Razer. You know
Speaker 2: the only person who's having a better time than Razor
Speaker 2: Ramone right now. I'm trying to think who that might
Speaker 2: be maybe Corbyn Carroll. But outside of that, like Razor
Speaker 2: is watching his Reds be exciting. There are a couple
Speaker 2: games out of first place. He's at the top of
Speaker 2: the home run board. Everything's coming up. Razor car Leak
Speaker 2: at twenty three, JJ Tator at twenty three Prime Time
Speaker 2: Blue Harvester MT Fisher. We got a whole bunch of
Speaker 2: twenty two. Welsh, I don't see you on there, buddy
Speaker 2: now miss week all week, but we don't know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this weekend didn't help. I think I'm sitting at
Speaker 3: twenty so I got a little bit of work to
Speaker 3: do and that is why I am well, I guess.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not going with really a chalk play today.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with more of a funsie play. I've
Speaker 3: got him in the Price Picks with Ellie de la Cruz.
Speaker 3: Ellie de la Cruz, I'm looking for some one seventeen
Speaker 3: mphs today and hopefully one is going to go over
Speaker 3: the wall, So Ellie daily Cruz from my home run
Speaker 3: call today.
Speaker 2: Cody wants to know is Razor juicing? If you are Razor,
Speaker 2: just keep going, Yeah, just do it, baby, Like I'm
Speaker 2: kind of rooting for him.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: The Reds have been bad so long, and this incredibly
Speaker 2: quick turnaround that they've done, it's got to be really
Speaker 2: exciting if you're a fan like you go from going,
Speaker 2: oh my god, this is the worst team in baseball too,
Speaker 2: look at us, we're competing and we've got the most
Speaker 2: expensing team in baseball.
Speaker 3: You know. Also, the chat, I mean this chat the
Speaker 3: entire time. One thing we haven't even talked about because
Speaker 3: it's like, can we talk about every single day? Everyone's
Speaker 3: like Cees ces see Christian.
Speaker 1: And Karnacian strength today not today.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 3: Well, it's also a little bit tougher because Joey Vada
Speaker 3: is coming back and a lot of people are talking
Speaker 3: about the trades in here. My whole point to this
Speaker 3: is this chat has been inundated with when Cees come up,
Speaker 3: Joey Vado, does that push him? Red's making trades and
Speaker 3: acquiring players. Ces could be on the trade block. The
Speaker 3: Reds are being talked about left and right because it's
Speaker 3: an exciting young team that's putting out some good players.
Speaker 3: So God knows ce rotation.
Speaker 1: A little help in the rotations all they need.
Speaker 2: Bullpen has been okay, Green has been really good late.
Speaker 2: That was my guy to trade for because his deeper
Speaker 2: stats are pretty good. My home run call. He took
Speaker 2: Ellie Dela Cruz. I took Fernando Tattis junior. He's old
Speaker 2: hat now, nobody's excited by him anymore except me.
