1
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,719
Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to Fantasy Pros MLB. This is Leading

2
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 1: Off Live. It is me, Joey p joe Pisapia with me,

3
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:13,079
Speaker 1: of course is the Welsh, and it's all of you,

4
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: the Peanuts and the Cracker Jackson on Monday morning. You know,

5
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,240
Speaker 1: I was noticing in that video and the intro video

6
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 1: for the first time, when we have beards and when

7
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 1: we don't. Sometimes we have them at the same time,

8
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: sometimes we have them at separate times. But I don't

9
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 1: ever see us both clean shaven at the same time, Welsh.

10
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 1: I thought that was a little interesting on the timeline

11
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 1: of Leading Off.

12
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 2: Oh that's interesting. I mean, that's more you because like

13
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,520
Speaker 2: I can only go so long until I'm forced to shave,

14
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 2: so it's it's not often that you are completely clean shaven.

15
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 2: I think that would be actually very disturbing, if I'm

16
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:47,880
Speaker 2: being honest, I think it would be a little jarring

17
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 2: for everybody.

18
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,239
Speaker 1: Thank you. That's why I'm here for both of.

19
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 2: Us at the same time, not you, not just you, both.

20
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: Of the audience and the audience. We're all here on

30
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: And let's start here with the suspension today. That's right,

31
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: Jose Alvarado boo eighty game suspension here. And Alvarado had

32
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: been really good man was he lights out in the

33
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 1: spring too. It looked like a huge year was coming

34
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: for him in that Philadelphia Phillies bullpen. And now it

35
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: becomes I believe Jordan Romano's job again. I just dropped

36
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: a short video here talking about how Romano over his

37
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 1: last six innings ten strikeouts nowhere and runs one walk.

38
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 1: He's been excellent just in time, luckily. But the Phillies

39
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: have a bigger problem now, which is they don't even

40
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: have him for the postseason. As well as the eighty

41
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: game suspension, this is a huge blow to that Phillies

42
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: bullpen because arguably he is the best arm they've got there.

43
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 2: It's pretty nuts, especially whenever you get any of these

44
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 2: relievers jumping into this. And I don't know if he's

45
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 2: starting to get this little cult following, because Josel Verado

46
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 2: he's like, oh, I love coffee, and everybody was jumping

47
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 2: to this. They're like, oh, what fun it is? And

48
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: he throws one on one and he's gone. I think

49
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 2: this might be to the level where the Phillies need

50
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 2: to potentially look at some more bullpen depth. Probably gonna

51
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 2: have to wait until near the trade deadline when a

52
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 2: few more teams are out of it and they can buy.

53
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 2: Because are they comfortable enough, you know, Strom can get

54
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 2: by with it. They move Tywan Walker to the bullpen.

55
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 2: They do have a lot of young guys. That's the

56
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 2: other interesting thing. I mean, Mick Abel just absolutely was

57
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 2: filthy this weekend. And that's a guy. You know, if

58
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 2: they ended up wanting to do anything nuts, you could

59
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 2: throw him in the rotation. And if you were taking

60
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 2: a ranger or hell, at this point, Aaron Nola doesn't

61
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: look like he should be in the rotation. You know,

62
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 2: they could move some pieces around but at the end

63
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: of the day, losing this this seems to thrust Jordan

64
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 2: Romano back into the role. Might have an offhanded save

65
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 2: of Walker or Strom, but they might have to go

66
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 2: get somebody, and it's probably gonna The determination is probably

67
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 2: going to be if Romano can be consistent over the

68
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: next little bit, if they're not going to go out

69
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 2: and try to acquire because like you said, it's not

70
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 2: just the eighty games, it's the playoffs. You know, your

71
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 2: most dominant reliever is out for the playoffs, and he

72
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 2: said it was due to some weight loss drug. And

73
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 2: I will to this day just be amazed that these

74
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,239
Speaker 2: athletes and everybody. Maybe we're giving them too much of

75
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 2: benefited out, but it's amazing that nobody ever consults the

76
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: place that they work with. If there could be anything

77
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 2: that could get them poppable, if there's money and the job.

78
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: I age it takes very long. Email, you call somebody, OUF,

79
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: there's gotta be a hot line. Maybe it's along the.

80
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 2: Lines of like if you go out to the bar

81
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: and you're just like, all right, I've had thirteen drinks,

82
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 2: maybe I'll call an uber, Like why do these guys

83
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 2: with all the money in the world not call an

84
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 2: uber uber black whatever you want call one of those.

85
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 2: But why also, can't you just call the league be like, hey,

86
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 2: can I take whatever I'm about, you know, whatever excuse

87
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 2: I'm about to say. But also that's why because.

88
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 1: He was on the weight loss drug go way way way,

89
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: go way, go sit and not collect a paycheck for

90
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: eighty games. I think that's the name of it. Anyway,

91
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, by the way, not losing his

92
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: rotation spot, that ain't happening. Let's get to Van Rod's question.

93
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 1: She's got a questionnaire. Who to pick up to replace Lugo,

94
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: Will Warren, Taiwan Walker or Poulante. I'm gonna go with

95
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: Will Warren. He's been pretty solid lately, and the Yankees

96
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 1: are the Yankees, and they're still at the top of

97
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: this division, so I'm gonna go there. The American League

98
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: is week two. I want to go with Will Warren.

99
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: Where do you want to go?

100
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think and we'll we'll get extra points with

101
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 2: Van RD for picking a Yankee too, so I'll go

102
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 2: with all.

103
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 1: Well, then, right, automatically, I'm still sour about yesterday, So no, no,

104
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 1: I'm not ready yet. I'm not ready. Although I did

105
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 1: enjoy Wan Soto tipping his cap on Night one to

106
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: the Yankee crowd for booing the hell out of him.

107
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: I thought that was terrific. Speaking of the Yankees, Cody

108
00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: Ballinger three for three with a double and a grand selm.

109
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: That just put the knife in the heart last night, brutal.

110
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: Whatever go Yankee you want. Merril Kelly was terrific. I

111
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 1: want to talk about Meryl Kelly because he's been really

112
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: solid lately. Also, he had eleven strikeouts and seven innings.

113
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 1: His era has done a three to two six his

114
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 1: whip as it won. He's got fifty two strikeouts to

115
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 1: just fifteen walks and fifty eight innings. What do you

116
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: think of the Meryl Kelly renaissance going on lately.

117
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: Meryl's always been a good spot starter. This was the

118
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 2: Colorado Rockies, you know, like he gave excuses to our

119
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 2: boy Jack Lder and having a good start because it's like,

120
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 2: well it was Colorado. Like Meryl did have an absolutely

121
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 2: dominant performance against Colorado, sixteen swinging whiffs in this one.

122
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 2: He changed up his pitch mix too, and that might

123
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 2: be some of the change something for us to watch.

124
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 2: He's been forcing change up cutter, and this one he

125
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 2: went cutter and change up for change up and cutter

126
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 2: is his top two used pitches, and they had pretty

127
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 2: high wiff rates, so that might be the ultimate change here.

128
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 2: I still don't know if I trust him as like

129
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 2: a long standing starter. Just think great matchups like this

130
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 2: against Colorado. I'm gonna throw him out there at the

131
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 2: end of the day. His k's are up a tiny bit,

132
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 2: He's era looks good, but the expected is over four.

133
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 2: He's giving up a ton of barreled contact. It's still

134
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 2: pretty hard. I would tread lightly with Merrill. If you start,

135
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 2: if you start to feel too confident, that's when I

136
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 2: think you need to jump ship. That's what I would

137
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 2: say about Meryl.

138
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,039
Speaker 1: Fair enough. Here's one from Doddler. Louis Robert was dropped

139
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: in my league. TJ friedel or bray you worth dropping?

140
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: I say, freedol.

141
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 2: Let's say you and not dropping, not dropping a bray you.

142
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: So yeah, exactly, and I would do it ago too.

143
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 1: We got a lot of news today too. We got

144
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,359
Speaker 1: prospecting of the Welsh coming up. We've got a lot

145
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: of rookie news. We got a recall as well, so

146
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 1: very exciting things. Is ti Oscar officially back today? I

147
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: have not heard anything about ti Oscar today and I

148
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,840
Speaker 1: just looked and swept everything before the show. So if

149
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: something breaks during the show, we'll let you know. But

150
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: I don't believe as of yet we've gotten that. However,

151
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 1: more news, Jack Lighter's up to two two good starts

152
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 1: in a row, seven innings. No decision, but I'm going

153
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: to give him the good start. There was a good day,

154
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 1: three hits, seven innings, three runs, so that's quality. Let's

155
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 1: go seven innings. Very impressive. That's two four more to

156
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: go before he becomes a real boy.

157
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 2: Yes Welsh, Okay, well, I think just having four good

158
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 2: starts not in a row for the year is fine,

159
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 2: but we can keep doing this Tasker is activated today today.

160
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 2: I do see that coming out of reporters that he'll

161
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 2: be activated according to Dave Roberts, who will be activated today.

162
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 2: So very good signs for and you agreed to it.

163
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 1: Six straight good start so he's at two so this

164
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: is cake. He's only got four more.

165
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 2: This is gonna be well no, but again the deal

166
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 2: is like for for you, for me, I said before,

167
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 2: like I don't think he's a great starter. I think

168
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 2: he's a serviceable MLB starter and he is like Stacking.

169
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm not gonna say he's elite. I'm

170
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: not just saying he's going to be a real boy.

171
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 2: You know what we need?

172
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: Then it's a lighters versions of this and if he

173
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 1: and if he has a blow up start, it goes

174
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: back to zero. So I have two.

175
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 2: Different versions of this one and Cali, we might need

176
00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 2: to do AI for this one. Is he is Pinocchio

177
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 2: with the super long nose, and as his starts get better,

178
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 2: the nose comes down and we just could have art

179
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 2: for that.

180
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: Or I thought I thought that would get bigger.

181
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 2: Well, no, like it gets bigger when he's bad, so

182
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 2: it's coming down, yeah, I say, Or we do this

183
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 2: like Major League, and I don't really want to take

184
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 2: clothing off like they did, but like, you know, maybe

185
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 2: we could just add clothing on or add his glove on,

186
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 2: which we add things on. Maybe the Pinocchio one is

187
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 2: a better I.

188
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 1: Like the Pinocchio one that was good, so he should

189
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: like a stands at it and left on the high note.

190
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 1: Royce lewis first homer of the season, so there you go.

191
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: But he almost had another one too, Jackson Cherio ended

192
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: up robbing him. I want to talk about Alexander Canario,

193
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: who won for three against the Phillies yesterday. He's now

194
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 1: fourteen for forty three, hitting three twenty six with two

195
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 1: homers six rubies. In May, this was a guy that

196
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 1: was in the Cubs organization. Then he had a pretty

197
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: good spring with the Mets. They had no room for

198
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: him the forty man roster, so he got cut. Now

199
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: he's in Pittsburgh. It's becoming an everyday player in deeper leagues.

200
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 1: Is he a guy that you should start to monitor

201
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 1: or pick up or be paying attention to, because I

202
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 1: think now in May, that we're sitting here again with

203
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: some of the outfield injuries we've had, Canario becomes at

204
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:10,359
Speaker 1: least intriguing.

205
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, I think you should take a look

206
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 2: at him in like fifteen plus leagues. He's super high barrel,

207
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 2: hard hit guy, which is phenomenal. He's getting the ball

208
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,839
Speaker 2: in the air great, his strikeouts have come down, he's

209
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 2: walking like all that stuff looks solid. But kind of

210
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 2: a primary fastball hitter, which he's absolutely dominating right now.

211
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 2: I imagine he's gonna the pitch mixed changes are going

212
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 2: to start to happen a bit, and really low contact

213
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 2: percentage seventy two percent zone contact percentage. But can he

214
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 2: be a two to forty hitter? His underlying profile is

215
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,719
Speaker 2: a guy where if he were hitting two forty, he's

216
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 2: gonna hit twenty plus homers. So he's going to be valuable.

217
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 2: And here's the other positive. That team is just messy.

218
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 2: They're a disaster and playing time as the season goes on,

219
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 2: it's just going to be more and more. Let's see

220
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 2: what we've got. And Canario looks like a player that

221
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 2: they're going to want to see a full season out of.

222
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 2: So I do think there's some value in picking him up.

223
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: Would you trade Ozzie Albi's for Luis Castillo from frov?

224
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 2: Uh?

225
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm good with that. I think that's fair.

226
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 2: I think I would. I'm not I'm a super not

227
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 2: Louis Castillo guy right.

228
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 1: Now, the big Ozzie guy either.

229
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,439
Speaker 2: If I'm not either one of them, I guess it

230
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 2: would be maybe dependent on like my need, if I

231
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 2: like super need rotational depth or something like that, I

232
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,959
Speaker 2: guess I would consider it, but I'd rather have Ozzie instead.

233
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 1: Zebbi, Jack Lighter, Ryan Weathers rest of season from laser sharp.

234
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 1: I think I say Jack lighter, I'm gonna surprise people here.

235
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 2: Are you gonna go lighter?

236
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go lighter because I think Texas is going

237
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: to be in this thing eventually. Corey Seger at some

238
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 1: point will come back, probably get hurt again, but he'll

239
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 1: be back eventually. I don't know. I feel I mean,

240
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 1: the Zebe start wasn't great already in Ryan Weathers pitches

241
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 1: on the Marlins, and I think there's limitations there. I

242
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: think it's between Weathers and Lighter for me rest of season,

243
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: But what do you think we wash?

244
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Weathers on this. I'm gonna go Weathers

245
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 2: lighter and than Matthew's because I don't know. I don't

246
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 2: know if Zebby is to have that rotation spot that

247
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,319
Speaker 2: that's the question him infested. Maybe going back and forth,

248
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 2: weather's been good. So if our one eight era and

249
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 2: I guess it was only one start, but twenty eight

250
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 2: percent K percentage low walks. I think all of these

251
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 2: guys are probably more streamers than anything else. So when

252
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 2: you're asking that question, I would just kind of line

253
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 2: it up. And then here's the order. I like, if

254
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 2: there's a cool matchup, I put one of those guys in.

255
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:25,680
Speaker 2: I don't know if any of those guys are gonna

256
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 2: be worth holding on to through struggles though.

257
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 1: Paul Skin's another tough luck outing for him. One run,

258
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: three hits, eight innings, but again got a loss against

259
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: the Phillies. He had nine strikeouts, one walk, forty percent

260
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 1: with rate. I mean everything you can ask more, but

261
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: it's just been a little Maybe it's not been the

262
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: best stretch here for him, but the performance has been good.

263
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: Results not always been perfect for him. But speaking of

264
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 1: the Pirates, we do have a Jostra Damas update. Over

265
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: the weekend, we hear Jared Jones suffer the setback in

266
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,559
Speaker 1: his throwing program. He's gonna meet with the doctors tomorrow

267
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: and he's gonna have the elbow reading examined. A lot

268
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,199
Speaker 1: of rumor circulating that he's gonna have Tommy John Joe

269
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: stra Damas strikes again. I hate seeing it into the

270
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: future sometimes Welsh, but we keep fooling ourselves, always thinking

271
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,319
Speaker 1: it's gonna be okay, everything's gonna be fine. It's like

272
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: that meme with the dog and the room is on fire.

273
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 1: Whenever we have a picture who's got an elbow issue

274
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 1: and we all just think it's gonna be fine. It's

275
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: never fine.

276
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 2: Who could have thought in any world that a guy

277
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 2: who has i'll tell your issues and is on the

278
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 2: injured list? Who could only Joe stra Damas could have

279
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 2: possibly seen this.

280
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: Kept telling everybody was stop wasting draft picks on this guy,

281
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: and people didn't refuse to. They kept taking him. Well,

282
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a shot on her, or well i'm

283
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,199
Speaker 1: gonna you know, I'm gonna I'm gonna hold a wait

284
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 1: and see. No, no, it never works out. Well, it's

285
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: always a disaster.

286
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 2: Every single show's like I saw fifty five thousand scenarios

287
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 2: and the only one was he would be hurt. Like,

288
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 2: oh my god, Joe, how did you see it?

289
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: Ow? Yeah, thats exactly I Van Rod's right, that's exactly.

290
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,680
Speaker 1: Everything's fine. Everyone sits there. But it's it's it's this

291
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 1: cock eyed optimism that everybody has and fanis baseball. We're

292
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 1: just think everything's gonna be okay. He's oh, oh, he's

293
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 1: got he's got a problem. He'll figure it out, He'll

294
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: be okay.

295
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 2: Who's that there's Jared Jones right here.

296
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: There is, there is, there is, Everything's fine, there is.

297
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 1: He's on fire. See the You should keep that handy

298
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 1: because that's gonna come in handy throughout the show. Because

299
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: also on fire the Baltimore Orioles who fired their manager

300
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: Brandon Hyde fifteen and twenty eight to start the season.

301
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: Before the firing, So Welsh, this is the third manager

302
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: fired before Memorial Day? Pop quiz, hotshot, And for everybody

303
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,959
Speaker 1: out there in the chat too, when was the last

304
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: time four managers were fired before Memorial Day? It's happened

305
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: in this century. I will tell you that.

306
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 2: I would have actually said it hasn't happened.

307
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's this man, it's happened in this

308
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,719
Speaker 1: century recently, Oh I don't know. Well maybe not too

309
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,719
Speaker 1: recently for some people, depending on how old they are.

310
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: But uh, oh okay, drop a year in the chat

311
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: if you want to guess what.

312
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 2: Year nineteen ninety four?

313
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: No this century?

314
00:13:55,360 --> 00:14:00,839
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, two thousand. Well, just as you're

315
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 2: saying when you said it's.

316
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: The year two thousand, since the year two.

317
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 2: Thousand, two thousand and six, No, it was not.

318
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 1: Two thousand and six. See, people saying to twenty twelve

319
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 1: not so much. But look, here's the thing. It's not

320
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 1: brand Hyde's fault. I mean, you go into the year

321
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: vault with Zach Eflin, Charlie Morton, Sigano, Dean Kreamer, who,

322
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: by the way, was also the dean in House Party two.

323
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people forget that that was

324
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: the name of the dean. But I mean, it's not

325
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: Bran Hyde's fault, and firing the manager is not going

326
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: to change anything, so it's gonna be a hot mess

327
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: for the Orioles rest of season. They also let go

328
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: of Kyle Gibson, so I guess that experiment also failed.

329
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 1: What a shock. Tobias Meyer's more transactions, he was sent

330
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: down a triple A. My boy, Logan Henderson's going nowhere.

331
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: He's going nowhere. Baby. I'm gonna cut a promo every

332
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 1: time he goes out there and starts, because that's my dude.

333
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: He was great again last week and he ain't going

334
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: no place. He's sticking in that rotation this time. Also

335
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: in the rotation now Hayden Birds is going to replace

336
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: Jordan Hicks. Now bird Song has had two to one

337
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 1: strikeout to walk ratio era round two three. Sometimes the

338
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 1: control could be a little erratic. Had a great spring,

339
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: people thought he might make that rotation. So Welsh, what

340
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 1: do you think of people running to the waiver wire

341
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 1: to add bird song?

342
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's he tows the must pick up

343
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 2: line here just because of some of the strikeout potential.

344
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 2: It is interesting though, because it's like, you know, as

345
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 2: a starter last year compared to this year as a reliever,

346
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 2: his k's are down, but his walks are also down.

347
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 2: But he has got some you know, he's got some

348
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 2: big whiff stuff. I mean, his slider's got a thirty

349
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 2: one percent withff rate on it, change up's got a

350
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 2: forty eight percent whiff rate. He throws both of those

351
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 2: a significant amount of the time, and his changeup has

352
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 2: a forty three percent K percentage. So remember with is

353
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 2: just swinging through that could be on one strike counts,

354
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 2: but actual K percentage just locking these guys down, You

355
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 2: know that that is a massive strikeout pitch with a

356
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 2: fastball that has towed up a little bit. But again,

357
00:15:58,120 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 2: now that he is going to be more in the

358
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 2: starter range, is he going to maintain ninety six? Either way,

359
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 2: it's a great ballpark. Factor. There's a ton of young

360
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 2: strikeout potential in Hayden Birdsong era has been great two

361
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 2: three one in relief expected is up a bit over

362
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 2: four and the barrels are up. So I would lightly say,

363
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 2: as you know, we had Sunday where everyone's like, oh

364
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 2: it's Waivers and blah blah blah. Bird Song you want

365
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 2: to pick up, but he's not invincible like he might have.

366
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 2: He might be nothing more than a streamer. Like so really,

367
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 2: you know, Dodgers, you're not going to want to play him.

368
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 2: But I think with the strikeout potential alone, i'd pick

369
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 2: him up. And someone asks whether's over Birdsong, I'd actually

370
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 2: go bird Song over him. Right now we have a

371
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 2: bunch of like Wooojia rathers Horton or bird song. That

372
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 2: one's really really tough. If I want to chase the

373
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 2: strikeout potential, I'd probably go bird song. But I think

374
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 2: is going to stay in the rotation.

375
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 1: But we'll see if he sticks in that rotation or not.

376
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 1: One more transaction. Colton Wong calls it a career too.

377
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 1: So Colton Wong never quite I think my potential. People thought,

378
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: of course he's a friend of Welsh Is everybody's a

379
00:16:58,240 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 1: friend of weal. No.

380
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 2: Mary I told that story where all him in complex

381
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 2: and I was like, hey, Colton's good to see you,

382
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 2: and he's like, it's not good to see you because wow,

383
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,120
Speaker 2: he didn't want to be no, because he didn't want

384
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 2: to be there. He laughed about it. He was like,

385
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 2: I'm in complex league ball. He's like, it's not that

386
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 2: he just didn't like you. I mean, that's definite possibility.

387
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 2: He also did say, by the way, he was kind

388
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 2: of like, I'm retiring because it doesn't seem like there's

389
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 2: any options, like we could see him in a little bit.

390
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 2: But yes, Colton Wang, we bid you ado eleven years by.

391
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: The way, Yeah, hey, a good major league career just

392
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: never reached. I think the potential that people I remember

393
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 1: him in that World Series and he was a rookie, remember,

394
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 1: and people are like, Oh, this kid's going to be

395
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 1: the speed stories to steal eighty bases, He's going to

396
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 1: change the game. And you know what, maybe had the

397
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: rules changes been in there when he was younger, he

398
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: might have had a bigger fantasy impact. I think the

399
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: rules changes hurt players like Colton Wong back in that era.

400
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 1: I think you can move back to that, you know,

401
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 1: contact guy. I'm sort the shift killed him on top

402
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 1: of all the other stuff, you know, the stolen base situation.

403
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 1: Also more on the San Francisco Giants rotation a little

404
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 1: bit later in the program. Wanted to give you the

405
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: answer to the question two thousand, two thousand and two

406
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,400
Speaker 1: is the last time that we had so many managers

407
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: get fired before Memorial Day? Phil Garner was fired six

408
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: games into the season for the Detroit Tigers if you

409
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: call that, Davy Lopes of the Brewers, Buddy Bell of

410
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 1: the Rockies, and then it was the manager in Kansas

411
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 1: City as well. So it's four guys before Memorial Day.

412
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:21,919
Speaker 1: So we're close to tying a record.

413
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 2: So get fired. Who's the guy that gets fired?

414
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: You know what? It's funny. We were playing this game

415
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: on Sunday on the TV show, and I don't know

416
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 1: if there's another one in season, maybe after the season,

417
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:34,400
Speaker 1: but I don't think in season right now. I think

418
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,439
Speaker 1: you look at the bottom teams because Ron Washington's not

419
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: going anywhere. The White Sox manager's not getting fired like

420
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,239
Speaker 1: I just yeah, like all the bad teams. I mean,

421
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: the Marlin's gonna make a managerial change. I don't think so.

422
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 1: The Brewers, even if they missed the playoffs, I an't

423
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: making a managerial change.

424
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 2: Pat Murphy, Yeah, like I just know so.

425
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 1: I think this is it, but you never know. Crazy

426
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: things happened. Let's get to the rookie. Lookie Abel was

427
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,120
Speaker 1: able for the Phillies. Yesterday. He had a two five

428
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: three ERA F fifty one strikeouts over forty six things.

429
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: In triple A you struck out nine. Again it was

430
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: the Pirates, but still a great debut from him. Ninety

431
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 1: seven point three average fastball Welsh. Any comments about Abel.

432
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a guy. I just don't remember if I

433
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 2: brought him up yet. I've written about him so far.

434
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,880
Speaker 2: He's had a couple of years. There's a prospect fatiguey

435
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 2: thing because he was a big time prospect, really leveled

436
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 2: out and then all of a sudden just started finding

437
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:28,479
Speaker 2: it this year. Fastball up ninety seven in this last start.

438
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 2: His curveball had a seventy two percent with rate. Again,

439
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 2: like you said, it is the Pirates, so like I

440
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 2: guess tread lightly a little bit, but his curveball was dominant,

441
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 2: His slider was great, his fastball looked great. He was commanding,

442
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 2: which was an issue in the miners a bit. This

443
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,919
Speaker 2: is a very very encouraging sign. I fully expect we're

444
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 2: going to get another start in here soon. But Nickabel

445
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,640
Speaker 2: jumps to the top of the list of those streamy

446
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 2: type of guys. And really, frankly, if he were to

447
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,679
Speaker 2: be given a rotation spot, you need a couple more

448
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,679
Speaker 2: outings to like really buy in. But he might be

449
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 2: one of those guys you want to buy because he's

450
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 2: always had strikeout potential.

451
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: Always Zebbie Matthews has potential, but he's not showing it

452
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: at the major league level. Four runs, three innings for

453
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 1: him on Sunday, Nick Kurtz another oh for ugh God,

454
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,119
Speaker 1: Now that batting average is at two nineteen, so we

455
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,159
Speaker 1: can't hang our hat on that anymore. Dylan Cruz signs

456
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: of life. Maybe we heard him when we last we

457
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: left you Friday, Dylan Cruz, we were thinking might not

458
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 1: make it through the weekend. But good performance yesterday, three

459
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 1: rubies and a dinger over the Orioles. And then John

460
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: Hayman just reported before the show that matt Shaw's on

461
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: his way back. He had two to eighty six and

462
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,159
Speaker 1: triple A with six homers, five steels, so hopefully the

463
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,880
Speaker 1: second time will be the charm for that young prospect.

464
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 1: And speaking of prospects, it's that time, everybody. It's time

465
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 1: for prospecting with the Welsh. That's right. It's when we

466
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,439
Speaker 1: take a look at some of the young players in

467
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 1: minor league baseball, scratching the surface of the big leagues,

468
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: or you need to know for your dynasty league. So Welsh,

469
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 1: let's kick things off here with Bubba. Watch as we

470
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: always like to do here on the show. Another day

471
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: goes by another Bubba Chandler starting in the minor league.

472
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,360
Speaker 1: Seven strikeouts, two runs, four and a third on Sunday

473
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,440
Speaker 1: and Triple A. Do the Pirates just hate their fans?

474
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: Is that all it is at this point?

475
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 2: I do think there's an element though, where they're starting

476
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,919
Speaker 2: to look logistically across the board. I mean, you just

477
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 2: fired your manager, your seasons kind of out. You start

478
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 2: to you're towing the line. I don't know the dates,

479
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 2: and it'd probably be helpful if I did, But they

480
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 2: change of like Super two and having an extra year

481
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 2: of eligibility. I think that's what we're dealing with right now,

482
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 2: is we might be dealing with that extra year of control,

483
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 2: and usually that's around like you know, late ish May,

484
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 2: and again that.

485
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 1: Is what I'm seeing right now in twenty twenty five.

486
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, okay, so and if that's the case, listen,

487
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 2: they don't have a ton to play for. And it

488
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 2: has to be the case. Frankly, if you look at

489
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 2: most of the results, I do think there's like a

490
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,479
Speaker 2: few things that still stand out. There are some you know,

491
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 2: deep counts he gets into, and there's a little bit

492
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 2: of walk issues. But he's done a really good job

493
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,199
Speaker 2: at the pitch mixes. This past start, he had fifteen

494
00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 2: whiffs on forty one swings, his fastball touch to one hundred,

495
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 2: he had seven strikeouts. I mean, let's learn this at

496
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 2: the major league level. But what are the Pirates playing for?

497
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 2: So that's why when the question comes up, Hey, is

498
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 2: Bubba Chandler going to be up soon?

499
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 1: Yeah?

500
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 2: When I don't know the next start, the next one

501
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 2: is when he should be up. He should be up tomorrow.

502
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 2: But I think they're playing the control game right now unfortunately.

503
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 2: So you know, you've got to come to terms with

504
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 2: how you are as a fantasy owner. Can you hold him?

505
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 2: Is he just taking up a bench spot? He will

506
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,919
Speaker 2: be like the most valuable starting pitching prospect once he

507
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 2: comes up. But also this team does suck, you know,

508
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 2: and it's like, how different off could he be than

509
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 2: like maybe a Mick Able with the Phillies, Like the

510
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 2: line actually might be kind of small, so maybe you could.

511
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 2: But at this point, if you've invested this long, you

512
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 2: got to hold on Bubba.

513
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: Marcelo Mayor is starting at second base, so great glove

514
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: at shortstop, but playing some second base. Why because Christian

515
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 1: Campbell said I'll play first base because I don't want

516
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: to get sent down because I haven't hit a lick

517
00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: in the last week and a half. So good for you,

518
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 1: Christian Campbell. Take them one for the team. It looks

519
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 1: like Campbell's going to get some work and has been

520
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 1: working out at first base, and so far, you know,

521
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 1: Marcella Mayor has been terrific, extriplas, done everything you could

522
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: possibly ask for. He's hit, he's fielded, and it looks

523
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 1: like he's going to get the opportunity very quickly. And

524
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 1: that could be great too, because now all of a

525
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: sudden you're talking about a guy who qualifies not only

526
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 1: a short stop, but eventually it's second base. As well

527
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 1: in some leagues. So how does that potentially increase his

528
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: value not just this year, but maybe next year as well.

529
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think multiposition eligibility is going to

530
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 2: be great. Also that they are clearly it. Actually, it's

531
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 2: pretty trippy to me that they're like, I mean, I

532
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 2: don't blame them them asking the young guys, but that

533
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,119
Speaker 2: they looked at Marcella or they looked at Roman Anthony

534
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,880
Speaker 2: and they're just like, we won't even consider having him move,

535
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 2: but we'll have the guy that's in the majors right now,

536
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,399
Speaker 2: and Christian Campbell be the guy that moves, and then

537
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,640
Speaker 2: we'll also move Mayor, but we'll never move Roman Anthony.

538
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,919
Speaker 2: But this is clearly he's the next guy that's going

539
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 2: to be up. Defensively, Christian Campbell has just been bad

540
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 2: at second, but also throughout spring, he's played a bunch

541
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 2: of different spots, and as you kind of mentioned, they said,

542
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 2: you know, someone asked him, hey, what's your favorite position,

543
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 2: and he's like, whatever makes the team win, you know,

544
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 2: the most anti Raphael Devers spot. But Marcella Mayer has

545
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 2: been pretty good. His average is lacked a little bit.

546
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,120
Speaker 2: He's definitely hit some homers forty seven percent hard hit

547
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 2: rate in triple A, which is definitely pretty solid. He's

548
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,639
Speaker 2: getting the ball in the air. He's hit a one

549
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,439
Speaker 2: to eleven, so he's showing some good natural raw power

550
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 2: and he is clearly going to be up. I gotta

551
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 2: be honest with you, I think he's up this week.

552
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,199
Speaker 2: I think at this point, how much longer are you

553
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,439
Speaker 2: going to do this experiment with Christian Campbell? I think

554
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 2: you just throw him to the Wolves. This is the

555
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,400
Speaker 2: guy that's played multiple spots on the infield, in the outfield.

556
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 2: I think by mid this week we're going to see

557
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 2: Mayor come up, and he's gonte be playing second base

558
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,120
Speaker 2: in the majors, so he's a pickup now.

559
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 1: Another guy to keep an eye on it. We've touched

560
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 1: on some of the kids down the farm for the

561
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 1: San Francisco Giants. He's pitching a triple A. Carson wizen Hunt,

562
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: I know welsch Thattz, the guy that you've been looking

563
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 1: at as well. He's got a three era a one

564
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,679
Speaker 1: whip again, this is PCL number two, which makes it

565
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:04,360
Speaker 1: even more spectacular. Fifty two strikeouts, just seven walks over

566
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: fifty one innings. He's the top pitching prospect in the organization.

567
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,399
Speaker 1: Hayden Birdsong is getting that crack right now in that

568
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 1: rotation because they're moving on from Hicks into the bullpen.

569
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,440
Speaker 1: Hicks start in the bullpen, so it's not too surprising there.

570
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 1: But if bird Song doesn't pitch well, or there is

571
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 1: an injury or another underperformer, could we see wizen Hunt

572
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: this season.

573
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 2: Yes, one hundred percent. And one thing he has going

574
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 2: for him is he's a lefty and they only have

575
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 2: one lefty in their rotation, it's Robbie Ray, and they've

576
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 2: got four writings in there. We've seen some big changes

577
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,160
Speaker 2: out of wizen Hunt too, and the number one has

578
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 2: been in the form of walks. He has registered stop

579
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 2: a B amongst stop. It's been just like you know,

580
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 2: four walk per nine, five walk per nine. It's one

581
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 2: point two four this year. And he's taken away on

582
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 2: the strikeouts. But he's become way way more efficient as well.

583
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,880
Speaker 2: Pitch usage or mix has changed just a tiny bit

584
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 2: this year. He's not throwing a cutter as much. He's

585
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 2: kind of going heavy sinker slide up and he has

586
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 2: a world class change up, which is a big strikeout pitch.

587
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 2: But he has had some big command issues, so it

588
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 2: looks like he can be a not a frontline starter,

589
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 2: but he can be in the rotation. That changeup is

590
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,679
Speaker 2: an absolute strikeout with pitch. I've seen him quite a

591
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 2: bit in the AFL and out here in Arizona that

592
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 2: I think if Birdsong struggles or honestly, there's some old guys,

593
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 2: you know, like I don't know, like there could whether

594
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 2: there's an injury or some other type of change. I mean,

595
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,880
Speaker 2: maybe landing route even doesn't work. Wizen hunts the next

596
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 2: guy up. That's the main, most important thing. He's the

597
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,919
Speaker 2: next guy up. He's a lefty that helps that rotation

598
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 2: with strikeout potential. So you should watch him and watch

599
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 2: the other guys for sure.

600
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 1: All Right, we've watched Jack cagleone all year at Double A,

601
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: just smack baseballs around three twenty two, three ninety four,

602
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,959
Speaker 1: five point fifty three slash with nine homers, forty three ribbies,

603
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 1: two steals and a partridge in a pear tree. And

604
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 1: now on Sunday he got promoted to Triple A. So

605
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: here we go the uh or should I say, one

606
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 1: of the worst offenses, one of the lowest at the

607
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 1: out of the barrel in ops right now. Of all

608
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: teams is the Kansasity Royals. They got a little bit

609
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 1: better recently in May, but Steell Welsh they lack some

610
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 1: power and protection for Bobby Witt. Will Jack Kaglione be

611
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,200
Speaker 1: that guy? And how soon could that happen?

612
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the timeline We've been talking about for

613
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:18,679
Speaker 2: quite some time because I don't think anyone and no

614
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 2: one's really known what you do or what they are

615
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 2: going to do with cagleioon. But we said as he

616
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 2: has progressed, it started to look more and more like

617
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,439
Speaker 2: there could even be this potential that they bring him

618
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,879
Speaker 2: up from Double A. But what you want to see

619
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 2: is the move from Triple A. Bam, We've got it.

620
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 2: He's leaving Double A hitting three twenty two nine homers.

621
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 2: Here's the most impressive piece of it. Only a twenty

622
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 2: one percent k percentage. That's huge because he had some

623
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 2: huge swing and miss issues. He's played right field, he

624
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 2: can obviously play first, he's a DH. I think this

625
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:56,479
Speaker 2: move is setting us up to post All Star break

626
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 2: Jack cagleon coming up to the Major. So especially if

627
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,880
Speaker 2: the are still just kind of locked into this big

628
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 2: you know, this division is just open right now, and

629
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 2: if they are locked into it, I really do think

630
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 2: that they're going to bring him up. They're going to

631
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 2: try him in the outfield. You know, they might spell

632
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 2: him penning, what's going on with any Pascuentino at first base.

633
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 2: Either way, I think his bat is getting into the lineup.

634
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 2: They're just going to have to figure out the days

635
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 2: they want Salve to be dh to make sure they're

636
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 2: comfortable with him defensively. So here's what I watch for.

637
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 2: Watch for the strikeout rate, watch for him hitting consistently,

638
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 2: and watch for him playing in the outfield. I think

639
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 2: the month timeline is around that spot. So what I

640
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 2: would do is I would pick him up pre all

641
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 2: start break. I'd pick him up if he's floating out

642
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 2: there in about three weeks or so, maybe a month

643
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 2: into mid June, before we start to get the big moves.

644
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 2: But hey, listen, if he goes and hits four hundred

645
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 2: in triple A, it might we might be way overshooting it.

646
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 2: He might be up sooner rather than later. But I

647
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 2: do believe he'll be up this year.

648
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 1: Lastly, I want to talk about a guy who's only

649
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 1: recently come across my sphere in terms of the prospect world.

650
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: Cjkaphus two for four with a two run diner on Sunday.

651
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 1: He is twenty three years old. He's hitting three seventy

652
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: nine in fifteen games of Triple A with three homers,

653
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: eleven RBIs in a steel Now. The Guardians have not

654
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 1: gotten a lot out of Carlo Santana, Let's be honest.

655
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 1: He was kind of that stopgap veteran guy they brought

656
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:17,600
Speaker 1: back for the thousand of the time to see what

657
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: they could do there. Man Zardo's a bit more of

658
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: a DH. He has struggled to hit for batting average again.

659
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 1: Could s e each I Cafus be a guy that

660
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: we see sooner than later, because, as you mentioned, that

661
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 1: division with the Royals and the Tigers and the Guardians

662
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 1: is really tight. Minnesota Twins just getting a little healthier too.

663
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 1: They just got Lopez back a few weeks ago, and

664
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: now of course Royce lewis back as well. So could

665
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 1: we see the Guardians reach down at Triple A and

666
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 1: bring up some more offense in Cafus.

667
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 2: I don'itely think it's a possibility. It might be kind

668
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 2: of crazy for this team if they were to cut

669
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 2: date on Santana and have two very young players in

670
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 2: Cafus and Manzardo both be that DH first base spot.

671
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 2: I think that would make things a little difficult, but

672
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 2: they are giving him the pushy. They moved him from

673
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 2: Double A to Triple A within the first month of

674
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 2: the season. I do think that is very very telling.

675
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 2: So far in Triple A he's meeting the call again.

676
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 2: He's hitting three seventy nine in Triple A over fifteen games.

677
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 2: He's hitting homers. His strikeout rates a little bit up.

678
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 2: They're going to want to see that come down. But

679
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 2: he's a left handed hitter who's going to take take

680
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 2: full advantage of that right sided poll, that little wind

681
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 2: tunnel that's happened, so you can smash some homers. I

682
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 2: do think there's an absolute possibility if an injury happens,

683
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 2: I think we could end up seeing him. But they're

684
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 2: going to have to feel really comfortable whether it's like

685
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 2: a defensive side or the bat is ready. Because they've

686
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 2: got these other guys that can interchange, like Gabriel Arius.

687
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 2: Could they go and play first base. They keep interchanging

688
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,600
Speaker 2: these type of players, but cafis for them to move

689
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 2: them to Triple A. They're not moving them to Triple

690
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 2: A to finish the year there. He definitely is going

691
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 2: to get a look and offensively he's a sneaky guy.

692
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 2: Ale only league player or deeper league if he were

693
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 2: to be called up. I just don't think the timeline

694
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 2: is like CAGs. You got to wait for him to

695
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 2: get called up. So put him on a watch list.

696
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 1: All right, that's prospecting with the Welsh. Make sure you

697
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: go to fancy ros dot com too you see more

698
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: of Welsh's takes on the prospects that could impact your

699
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 1: fantasy baseball future. Let's get to the three up and

700
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,719
Speaker 1: three down up Max Freed. Very good night for him.

701
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 1: Eight more strikeouts. Man, that era is just dazzling. I

702
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: know they expected the era is gonna be higher. He's

703
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 1: gonna come back to earth a little bit. But man,

704
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: what an incredible run Max Freed has been. He has

705
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 1: saved this rotation. Jeffrey springs back on track, still so

706
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 1: good to see or run and two hits, six and

707
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 1: two thirds. Everyone's kicking themselves for dropping him to the

708
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 1: waiver wire. And cj Abrams three for five with two homers,

709
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 1: two rubies and three runs scored yesterday and win over

710
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 1: the oh's the downs. Oh well, so Shane Boss continues

711
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 1: to just unravel before our eyes. Brian Bao got lit

712
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 1: up for seven runs, Zach Eflin eight runs on ten hits,

713
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 1: you know, because the Orioles pitching staff. But I want

714
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: to go to bos for a second too, because that's

715
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 1: the one I'm getting tons of questions on. Do I

716
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 1: drop him? Do I keep him? I'm not sure what's

717
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 1: unraveled here for him. I'm not sure if you look

718
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 1: in that Baseball Savant page you're going to have the

719
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 1: crystal ball to see it either. Maybe it's a combination

720
00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: of pitch micks, confidence, whatever it might be. But at

721
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 1: some point here, I don't know how long you can

722
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: keep Ean Symour down in this rotation with Boz keeps

723
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: going out there and getting lit up. Pepio's pitch better.

724
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 1: We're still waiting on mcclanahead. We don't have a timeframe,

725
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 1: but I'm worried about Boz's spot in that rotation.

726
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I'm not sure if I'm like, I guess

727
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 2: that's a decent point. He threw me off there because

728
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 2: it's like my worried about his rotation spot. I'm not

729
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 2: sure that they're gonna just cut bait after you know,

730
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 2: four or five bad starts. This is a guy that

731
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 2: they see as like a big future piece that is

732
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 2: going to be here for years to come. I think

733
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 2: they can work out through this for the most part

734
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 2: at the major league level. But what's interesting now the

735
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 2: other part of that is like, outside of losing the

736
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 2: rotation spot, is he going to be serviceable for fantasy?

737
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 2: I don't know. He cut his slider. I mean he

738
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 2: threw it twenty one percent of the time last year,

739
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 2: that was the second most used pitch. It's fourth. He

740
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 2: only throws it about eight percent of the time, and

741
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 2: last year it had like a one sixty average against.

742
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 2: So he's fastball, curveball, change up. That's primarily where he's going.

743
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 2: The unfortunate part is, you know, two ninety four average

744
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 2: against fastball, two fifty nine against changeup. But those are

745
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 2: both overperforming or underperforming. I guess it would be the

746
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,719
Speaker 2: way to say it, because the expected batting average against

747
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 2: is quite a bit lower, and that's what leads to

748
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 2: him having an only four expected dra versus the over

749
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 2: five that he is currently actually running. But the strikeouts

750
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 2: haven't been there. He's throwing to just a bunch more

751
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 2: contact right now. Zone contact is up to eighty five percent.

752
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 2: It was eighty three last year, So the stuff isn't stuffing.

753
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 2: And I think bos in twelve and ten teen leagues

754
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 2: can kind of easily be pushed through and you can

755
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 2: go with there. We've talked about so many guys that

756
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 2: are like streamers that we don't feel comfortable holding on to.

757
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 2: I think Boss is in that territory, like there's no

758
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 2: reason to hold on to it right now. It's really

759
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 2: really messy. And when there's guys like Able or Chandler

760
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 2: coming or Merril Kelly with good starts, don't hold on

761
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 2: to You're gripping for life that he's going to be

762
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 2: this big ace that doesn't seem like it's going to

763
00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 2: adjust through the rest of this year.

764
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,400

827
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 1: are about. Brandon Woodriff. There are bullpen sessions. So he's

828
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 1: gonna go make two more rehab starts. But love of God,

829
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 1: can we get Brandon Woodrift to start please? I Uh,

830
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 1: it's gonna be the year twenty thirty two and Brandon

831
00:36:58,200 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 1: Woodroff is still gonna be making rehab.

832
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:02,360
Speaker 2: Never gonna happen. It's it's gonna you actually should do

833
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 2: it like a live stream when he actually pitches like

834
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 2: it'll be incredible.

835
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 1: I hope I live to see it. That's all I say.

836
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 1: That's it.

837
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:12,000
Speaker 2: You can have your next prostate.

838
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:20,360
Speaker 1: Example, Ksey Miz through a bullpen sessions rehabbing you darvish,

839
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 1: it's not going to join the rotation during the upcoming

840
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 1: series against the Blue Jays. So nixt to that. Hunter

841
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: Green through a bullpen session yesterday, All was well there.

842
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 1: Tyler O'Neal goes to the tendaill with a shoulder impingement.

843
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 1: Evan Carter wan wanh goes to the tendail retroacting to

844
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 1: the seventeenth with the right quad strain and spencer strider.

845
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 1: The good news, I saved the good news for last.

846
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:43,239
Speaker 1: He was activated. Let's go. Are you excited here? And

847
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 1: are you surprised he didn't have a rehab start or

848
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 1: one of Brandon Woodroff's many rehab starts.

849
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 2: Well, I suppose it, Like you don't hate to see it,

850
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 2: but some of these guys that are out, if you're

851
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,360
Speaker 2: a for like two weeks, you're just not going to

852
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,760
Speaker 2: see reheb assignments. You're talking about that with Tommy Edmond

853
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 2: a taoscar is not too in that. If it's like

854
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 2: a two possibly three weeks. Most of these players just

855
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,359
Speaker 2: hang out at the stadiums. They're good to go. When

856
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 2: it gets to a month or more, or there's been

857
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 2: significant time like you know, leading up, like missing part

858
00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 2: of the season, that's when they care about this stuff.

859
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 2: So no, I'm not really surprised.

860
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 1: At lisaid Kaiser tricksher. Send us some swag.

861
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 2: What kind of swag?

862
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 1: What kind of swagging? They said, I don't know. I

863
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 1: think it gives you the swag. That's that's all you need.

864
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,799
Speaker 1: A speaking of swag, Connor, we got some swag after

865
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,759
Speaker 1: the weekend. Three and one over the weekend, It's time

866
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 1: for the best Bets of the Day with Joey p

867
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,720
Speaker 1: and the Welsh. Let's start here with the best Bets

868
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 1: of today with Nick Castellanos. Oh baby, let's go because

869
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,799
Speaker 1: Castianos has a really good track record against Kyle Freeland.

870
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 2: Free what happened in the world, Well.

871
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, actually over the weekend something did. But anyway, Kyle

872
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 1: Freeland three homers and seventeen at bats, a thousand ops

873
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,440
Speaker 1: in his career, So let's just take it easy and

874
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,399
Speaker 1: let's just bet minus one ten for him to drive

875
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,400
Speaker 1: in a run today and the Phillies expected run total

876
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 1: is six and a half already, so the Phillies are

877
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 1: expected to score some runs and Nick Casianos should be

878
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,560
Speaker 1: in a good position to drive some in today. So

879
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,839
Speaker 1: give me Casianos to get an RBI minus one ten.

880
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 1: Also on the mound today for the Miami Marlins is

881
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 1: Edward Cabrera, the human gas can, and he, I think,

882
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,800
Speaker 1: is going to give up some total bases to Kyle Tucker.

883
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 1: Give me two plus total bases at minus one fifteen

884
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,440
Speaker 1: on the FanDuel machine. And then the Tampa Bay Rays

885
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:28,439
Speaker 1: on the run line. Pepio's on the mound. He's pitched

886
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 1: really well lately, he has not He's got a quality

887
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: start in four of his last five appearances, but he's winless.

888
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,719
Speaker 1: It's time. It's time to get a win here. Let's go.

889
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,920
Speaker 1: The Astros lineup is defunct right now. They're missing a

890
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 1: ton of pieces. Still give me the Rays on the

891
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,160
Speaker 1: run line at minus one and a half for plus

892
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 1: one forty six Welsh, What do you have here for

893
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 1: the people on a Monday?

894
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 2: I am all plus moneyed here on Monday, so it

895
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 2: is nothing but plus money plays. We are going to

896
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 2: start it off with probably my favorite the day Christopher Sanchez.

897
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 2: We are alt lining his strikeouts to seven. You can

898
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 2: maybe even later it. To be honest with you, six

899
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,319
Speaker 2: is like pretty decent minus money. Seven is plus one

900
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 2: twenty right now, going up against the Colorado Rockies, who

901
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 2: stink and give up all the strikeouts, one of the

902
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 2: worst teams in baseball. Give me Chris Sanchez alt line.

903
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:25,240
Speaker 2: I might even flirt with the eight, to be honest

904
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 2: with you, but seven for plus money, Yes and thank you.

905
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,319
Speaker 2: He had over seven in his last start. Half of

906
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 2: his starts this year. Four of his eight starts he

907
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 2: has had seven or more strikeouts, and he's got the

908
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 2: Colorado Rockies, so again, yes and thank you. Kansas City

909
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:42,360
Speaker 2: first five money line. We're gonna be backing Chris Bubach

910
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:45,880
Speaker 2: going up against the Giants here. Robbie Ray has been

911
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 2: pretty solid. Bubich has got a one six six era.

912
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 2: I'm getting plus money for them to have a lead

913
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 2: early on offense, maybe picking up a little bit, so yes, sir.

914
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 2: And then Arizona Diamondbacks first five money line. This is

915
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,440
Speaker 2: against the Dodgers, which is very scary. Brendan Fought can

916
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 2: be very scary with his homers, but Landon Knack is

917
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,879
Speaker 2: on the mound, and the Arizona Diamondbacks offense is also

918
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 2: pretty scary. So I think we can get one of

919
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,839
Speaker 2: those early good versions of Brandon fot that holds down

920
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 2: the homers and the runs, and we are going to

921
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 2: get the Diamondbacks getting to Landonnac quick. It's plus money

922
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:23,480
Speaker 2: through the first five innings plus one oh five and

923
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 2: like both of those first fives, if they happen to

924
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,919
Speaker 2: be tied, we push and we move on. So case

925
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 2: Arizona first five plus money altline, Chris Sanchez strikeouts, bing

926
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 2: and boom.

927
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:35,520

935
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 1: I got no home runs. Pete A. Lonzo was useless

936
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 1: to me. I got a lot of rage this morning.

937

Speaker 2: Now he gets highlighted.

943
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 1: A bad guy. The Welsh at fifteen, still on the board.

944
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 1: I am not at double digits, Sammy. So it's a

949
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 1: doing it by the numbers. That's it. Just buy the

950
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 1: numbers Nick Cassianos and you get a pretty good number

951
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:35,680

952
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:37,279
Speaker 1: to eighty for him to go yard today, so I

953
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 1: like that one. Welsh, where are you going for your

954
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:39,480

956
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 2: is some there's some big wind here today in these

957
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 2: games we had I think it's like almost twenty mile

958
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,959
Speaker 2: an hour wins coming in in the Cleveland game, there's

959
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:55,239
Speaker 2: a couple that are just kind of pushing on the outskirts.

960
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,720
Speaker 2: But this is one of those where it's like fifteen

961
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 2: to seventeen mil an hour wins going out, especially on

962
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 2: the right handed side. So we're going to tag a

963
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:07,480
Speaker 2: really good contact hitter in Bobby quit Junior as our

964
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:10,400
Speaker 2: boy hitting in San Francisco against Robby Ray and that

965
