We'll break down 12 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 1: how many What do you think the most common name 13 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 1: is in fantasy baseball for an analyst? Do you think 14 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 1: it's Chris? Do you think I'm trying to think of? 15 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 1: Is it? We don't know a lot of palls. There's 16 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: not that many erics we'd have to let's let's break 17 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: that down. That's the next stat we need everybody the 18 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: most common name. Maybe it is Chris. I don't I 19 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: guess in the prospect world we have me you Chris Blessings, 20 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: So maybe Chris does dominate the prospect world. I don't 21 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: know about the fantasy world, so yes, things will be 22 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: fun to talk about, except probably the top main story 23 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:16,199 Speaker 1: that just came down, I believe within the last hour praise. 24 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: Marcelo Zuna was arrested on Friday morning, yes, in Georgia 25 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: for driving under the influence. Every time I read this, 26 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: it says nor Cross, but I want to say it's 27 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: like Narcos, so then I'm like, wow, this is a 28 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: much serious injury is an issue. Nor Cross police arrested 29 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:36,199 Speaker 1: Ozuna after failing to maintain his lane. He was booked 30 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 1: in around uh four thirty in the morning. That's good 31 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: for game time. And as you know, Ozuna is I believe, 32 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: not even a year out of his domestic violence issue 33 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: that he had. There's no actual other information outside of 34 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: he messed up, and I would not expecting to probably 35 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: see a whole bunch of Oza. I mean, maybe I'm 36 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: overblowing it because it's the DUI, but it's two main issues. 37 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: He was arrested. Marcello Zuna probably gonna at least miss 38 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 1: a little bit of time, if not maybe major you know. 39 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: Reactions from the Braves cleg Yeah, I mean, I'm hoping 40 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: they can find a way to avoid this contract after 41 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: you both incidentss. I don't know, you know, legally how 42 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: that works, and if you know his parole stuff, there 43 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 1: was some clauses in there about anything like this. But 44 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 1: you know, he had already kind of lost his starting 45 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 1: spot at this point where he was just playing really inconsistently. 46 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 1: He's been bumped out of the order, bumped down the order, 47 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: and then completely out and this certainly doesn't help his case. 48 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: You know, if he's wanting to, you know, bump up 49 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: that two fourteen bag average he has going on, I 50 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: don't think this is the way to do that. So 51 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised, if you know, even if the 52 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 1: Braves have to eat the money if he gets DFA. 53 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 3: So it could be interesting, but I don't think we'll 54 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 3: see it much anymore. 55 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: No, And one of the big things that Wonky pointed 56 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: out this is where this was leading to. We have 57 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: to consider with how good Vong Grissom has been, that 58 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: this could be the playing time that opens up. Obviously, 59 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: Marcel Azuna, you know you're gonna have outfield, You're gonna 60 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: have potential DH but if Ozuna is out in perpetuity, 61 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: I mean Grissom just was given a spot. There's just 62 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,839 Speaker 1: given an open field here with whatever happens. I mean, 63 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: Orlando Arcia comes back, okay, if Alvis comes back in 64 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 1: time and both of them okay, But now this is 65 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: another potential spot that they could maybe play Grissom if 66 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: they want to run some outfield, DH have him there, 67 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: and his success is probably one of those reasons. I mean, 68 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: sometimes these teams get caught. They get caught with like, 69 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: all right, this is a talented player, we need this 70 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: person versus the actions of what they had. Not all 71 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: teams react correctly, but when you have really other good 72 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: players that are sitting in the wings and this could 73 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: just create rest of season opportunity, it's even better for Grissom. 74 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: Not that there's any application Craig Clegg, because he's already 75 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,119 Speaker 1: picked up everywhere. If Grissom was not picked up, anywhere 76 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: you should run is immediately immediately to go pick him up. 77 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: But he's not anywhere most likely available. So I don't 78 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: know what the actual item is that just if anybody 79 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: owns Grisom, you can probably feel a whole lot better 80 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: about it. 81 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so. 82 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 2: And I would also say William Contreras sees more at bats. 83 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 2: I mean, you know he's dhing some, but you know, 84 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 2: when he's not catching, he may be the everyday DH 85 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 2: at least until Alb's is back and Grisom moves off second. 86 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 2: So I really think it's a bump for William Contreras. 87 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 2: So he's already been that well, you know will Contraras. 88 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: What's interesting about him is he's one of those guys 89 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: that I'm trying to think of how many are out there, 90 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: but like he doesn't have a full time gig yet 91 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: he has been a top ten at his position for 92 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: me for half of the season with the performance, regardless 93 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 1: of having the full time gig or not, his bat 94 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: has been so live that without the full full time 95 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: they've still been attempting to give it to him. And 96 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: you're right, this does open up a little bit more 97 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: of an opportunity for him. So you know, maybe that's 98 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: how to look at it. Maybe the big arrow actually 99 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: is Contraross with a side arrow of von Grissom, because 100 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: they're still scenarios you're building where it might not work 101 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: if wilmcntras is the main DH, and then you do 102 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: have Albi's coming back and Grissom is still kind of 103 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: without a spot or a landing spot. If they don't 104 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 1: want to move him around, then it may be moot. 105 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: But Grislam has been awesome. Ozuna not so awesome, not 106 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:34,799 Speaker 1: so awesome whatsoever. Zach Gallon is awesome though striking out twelve, 107 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: I think it was someone right at the top here. 108 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: One of the very first comments in Angelo Gallon thirty 109 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: five Fantasy points yesterday been phenomenal, twelve strikeouts, had seventeen 110 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: swing and missus led the way against the Giants last night. 111 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: And I'm looking at some of his stat cast stuff 112 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: as well. He had a sixty seven percent swing, a 113 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: whiff rate sixty seven percent with rate on his curb, 114 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: his knuckle cur which he threw twenty six percent of 115 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 1: the time. Fifteen of the twenty six elicited to swing. 116 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 1: Ten of those fifteen were whiffs, which is a bonkers number. 117 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: And he had whiffs. He had a double digit or 118 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: multiple whiffs on every single pitch he threw last night. 119 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 1: Four of the categorized pitches with at least double digit usage. 120 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 1: Zach Gallen has been a monster cleg and really is 121 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: one of those guys. If it continues on the bad team. 122 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 1: He is going to vault himself up as far as 123 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 1: how he's valued next season exponentially if this keeps going on. 124 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think he hasn't been talked about in 125 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:37,720 Speaker 2: the light that he should be with the type of 126 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 2: season that he's having. You know, he's right at a 127 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 2: strikeout in ninny right now. But you know, when you 128 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 2: look at it, he's been striking out more as of 129 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 2: recent and that's been encouraging to really see him, you know, 130 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 2: getting to those strikeouts, and obviously you know, this last 131 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 2: start was his most strikeouts that he's had this season. 132 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 2: So if this trend continues, then I certainly think he's 133 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 2: going to push his way up boards for redraft next year. 134 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 2: But I still think he's being a bit undervalued. This 135 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,559 Speaker 2: is kind of who we expected him to be, really 136 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 2: when he came up his rookie season and just dominated, 137 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: and then last year just didn't really go as planned. 138 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: But now he's back and just absolutely dominant. So I 139 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 2: think we can kind of expect Gallon to be this 140 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 2: low threes type era with a solid strikeout rate, not 141 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 2: the best, not elite. It's not gonna push himself into 142 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 2: ACE territory, but you know, you have to really like 143 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 2: what you're getting out of Gallon, especially where he drafted 144 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 2: him this season. 145 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: We're kind of getting into like twenty twenty three talk 146 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: territory Bubba who had on yesterday and was talking about 147 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: how him and Bloom we're sharing some twenty twenty two 148 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: I think it was like a best ball or whatever 149 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: they were doing for the next year. So you're gonna 150 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: start getting into that territory where ranks are going to 151 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: be floating out there. My next rank update, I'm not 152 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: going to do a September redraft rank update because I 153 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: just kind of think that's silly with the final month. 154 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: I'm actually going to focus on early twenty twenty three ranks, 155 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,679 Speaker 1: So that's going to be my September of what I release. 156 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: And do you think Gallen is a top fifteen sp 157 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 1: next year or would we go higher to top ten? 158 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 2: Well? I think he should be, but I think he's 159 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 2: going to push back close. I'm asking you though, like 160 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 2: your value on? Oh yeah, yeah, I think that I'd 161 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 2: have him as a top fifteen guy. He could potentially 162 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 2: push that top ten, but there's just a lot of 163 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 2: talent up there at the top at this point where 164 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 2: you know, maybe the strikeouts hind him a bit, but 165 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 2: right now I valume as top fifteen guy moving forward. 166 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: There was this really fun bet last night that I 167 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 1: don't know how everybody got it or whatever, but it 168 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: was on a promotion on DK and the promotion was 169 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: the Padres were minus three sixty five. You know who's 170 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: going to bet that? And it says, hey, everybody, you 171 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: can bet fifty bucks and we're gonna give you even 172 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: money on the Padres. You Darvish going against the dumb 173 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: Nationals with Soto playing his team. Doesn't this look fun? 174 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 2: It was. 175 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 1: It is one of those moments that makes you think 176 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: there is somebody that has a time machine travels on 177 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: how they're able to place these things, because yes, there's 178 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: a certain dummy that could not take that even money 179 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: on the Padres. And last night they had the game 180 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: tied up, so I was obviously watching it very intently. 181 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: Darvish gave up two singles to start off the ninth 182 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: inning or eighth inning, Yeah, it was the top of 183 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 1: the ninth I think it was, and they bring in 184 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: Josh Hater, and Josh Hater allows a pair of inherited 185 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: runs to score and recorded a pair of outs on 186 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: Thursday which in this appearance he does not look right, 187 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 1: could not throw strikes, he walked the bases loaded, which 188 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: brought in a run, and then subsequently another run came 189 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:42,559 Speaker 1: in off of a sackfly. Josh Hater has an eight 190 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: point one ERA with a over two whip, four walks, 191 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: four strikeouts in four appearances with the Padres so far. 192 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: Claig what is wrong with Josh Hater? 193 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 3: I don't know. 194 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 2: I wish I could pinpoint something, but something started going 195 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 2: wrong mid July and July thirteenth was really like the downfall, 196 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 2: and since then he has a fifteen point two sixty 197 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,079 Speaker 2: RA a ten to five six FIP, so doesn't look 198 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 2: good there. The walks have just gotten out of control. 199 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 2: The home runs are out of control. Still striking batters out, 200 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 2: but doesn't matter when you're walking the amount that you 201 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 2: are and then allowing those to come in by home run. 202 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 2: So I've struggled to really pinpoint with him what exactly 203 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 2: is wrong. But there's something totally off with him. 204 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm glad I made that. He owes me money. 205 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: He owes me money on that one, but luckily I 206 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: had a nice other bet put together that we made 207 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: money yesterday, but that was one of those it's supposed 208 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: to be a slam dunk. Those are those slam dunk 209 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: ones and those promotions they get to and so does 210 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: Josh Hater in these situations. Also, he just wasn't throwing 211 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 1: strikes properly, like he couldn't. He looked like he had 212 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: no feel And as the announcers were talking about, one 213 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: of the things that's happening, he's working behind himself so 214 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 1: much that the early count stuff is killing him because 215 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: then hitch our hitters are just looking for one pitch, 216 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: especially when he's not commanding. They're looking for one thing 217 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,679 Speaker 1: later in the count, and they're taking advantage of it. 218 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 3: You know. 219 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: Hitter's like only one thing against Josh Hater, and it's disgusting. 220 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 1: It's fastballs, and that's what they do when he can't 221 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 1: command any of his offspeed stuff early on and he 222 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: needs to get it right. A couple other little notes here. 223 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: Rangers inter manager Tony Beasley said on Thursday that Josh 224 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: Young major league debut is not eminent. He is not 225 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: coming up in the near future, which I actually don't think. 226 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: This is a horrible thing. I would just throw out 227 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: that good. At least we get some information. I love information, 228 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: so then I don't have to worry about it. I 229 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: don't have to freak out and be like, all right, 230 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: let's go pick up Josh Young. Let's be crazy. I mean, 231 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: I didn't think he was coming up tomorrow. I said, 232 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 1: let's actually watch, let's maintain, let's see can we get 233 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: him up. I still think September is an opportunity and 234 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: it's and the reason this question is coming up Claig 235 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,959 Speaker 1: is because he's hitting four hundred. He's aating four to 236 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: twenty four in Triple A right now, where he hit 237 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: two forty in the complex, but he's up to three 238 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: twenty five on the season. I believe it is, or 239 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: what is the total number here? I'm actually I think 240 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: I'm saying no. Three forty five on the year, where 241 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: he had another homer earlier in the week with a 242 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: thousand slug And there is a question we can ask, like, 243 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: what is this doing for him? Being in Triple A 244 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: guy's hitting four hundred, what else is he learning? Maybe 245 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: they've got things we don't know about that he's working on, 246 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,559 Speaker 1: but they say it's not imminent. I don't think that 247 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 1: means he doesn't come up at all. But I do 248 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: think that means you can clear your mind right now 249 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: because if the Rangers, I think the Rangers give him 250 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:32,959 Speaker 1: a couple I don't know if it's a big plan 251 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 1: for it. Bottom line, the guy needs at bats. He 252 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: will get them in the AFL this year. I have 253 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: zero point zero percent question that he will be in 254 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: the AFL. It's just will they, in your mind give 255 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: Josh Young at bats at the major league level this year, 256 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: knowing the time he's missed. 257 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 2: Well, I'm conflicted there because you know, part of me thinks, well, 258 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 2: he's more than any We've seen that, and I think 259 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 2: he needs to be challenged at the major league level. 260 00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 2: I mean, we saw him tear up triple A les 261 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 2: last year. Obviously the injury set him back. I think 262 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 2: he would have been a debut really early in the 263 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 2: season if not for the injury. But on the flip side, 264 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 2: the Rangers have nothing to play for, so they have 265 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 2: real no incentive to bring him up, and he would 266 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 2: obviously make that team better. But right now, you know, 267 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 2: I don't know. Yeah, obviously you want to wait until 268 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 2: he can at least keep his rookie service clock through 269 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 2: next year. So at that point, I think that date 270 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 2: is August twenty third for the service time where he 271 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 2: could come up and still be rookie eligible next year. 272 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,319 Speaker 2: So it's possible we see him in September, maybe mid September, 273 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 2: but I don't really see him have anything left to 274 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 2: prove at Triple A at this point. 275 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, and also you got to think about, like I said, 276 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 1: at bats at bats at bats, so I believe this 277 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:48,559 Speaker 1: is going to be something. This is going to be 278 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: a playoff pick up. So my big advice has been, 279 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: if you want to be ahead of the game, you 280 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: can pick him up. Try to get him up a 281 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: week before. And I think that's right at September, because 282 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: maybe they stick him through through the Triple A season, 283 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: which I think goes through like July eighteenth or fifteenth 284 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: or something like that, right in that range, and then 285 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 1: you've got a couple of weeks where I think they 286 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,679 Speaker 1: would want to throw him into the majors, and then 287 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: he'll come over to AFL which starts October third, which 288 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: I will be covering, and there'd be no reason to 289 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: give him any type of a break in between there, 290 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: so he will get me. I have zero percent concern 291 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: or question that he will get at bats. I just 292 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: don't know if they'll be big impactful as far as 293 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: like us trying to go and pick up the big 294 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: next player. Keep an eye on it, but at least 295 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: they gave you some information that it's not imminent, so 296 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: maybe you can just look elsewhere. Also, the shows off, 297 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: Elvis Andrews is signing with a White Sox after being 298 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: released by the A's, and there's some weirdness around that 299 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: there without Tim Anderson. Jeff Passen reported this, Elvis Andris 300 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 1: going to the White Sox for whatever value that's actually 301 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: going to be, which is pretty minimal. On the injury front, 302 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: Brandon marsh is going on the ten day IL with 303 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: a bone bruise in his left knee and left ankle. 304 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: Spring Anthony Sinzetela was lifted from Thursdays start as Saint 305 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: Louis due to an apparent left leg injury. And just 306 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 1: you know, the Cardinals James Paxton is being evaluated for 307 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: left lap tightness. We don't ever talk about him. I 308 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: kind of forgot he existed. And an MRI and Tyler 309 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: Moley's right shoulder turned up clean, no structural damage and 310 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: it looks like it's not gonna be anything bad clig, 311 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: which is beautiful, right, Oh yeah, for sure. Here's a 312 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: fun fact. Yesterday we had a good you know, when 313 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: we're talking bets, we had a good call on Alex 314 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: Bregman talking about the total base when I was digging 315 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: in he was not the odds on favorite. But what 316 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: I do every single day, we'll do shortly, is I 317 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: pick the number one on the prop cheat sheet and 318 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: then I take where that could be, whatever type of 319 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 1: juice up money. Then I go find the positive money. 320 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: And Bregman was a positive money and Bregman had a 321 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,359 Speaker 1: day well. Alex Bregman had two homers and two doubles. 322 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: Since nineteen oh one, this has only been done one 323 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: hundred and eighteen times. In comparison, there have been two 324 00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: hundred and ninety five cycles in baseball. A wild stat. 325 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: Two homers, two doubles only one hundred and eighteen times 326 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: in baseball since nineteen oh one. That's that's bonkers. 327 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 3: That's crazy. 328 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 2: It's when you think about it, you think about the 329 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 2: cycle not happening often, and you read those numbers and 330 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 2: it's like, wow, that's only happened, you know, less than 331 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 2: half the time. So pretty impressive feet for Bregman. Good 332 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 2: day for him, for sure, and good to see him 333 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 2: kind of picking it up a bit. 334 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: Bregman needs a little bit of a pickup if he's going. 335 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I think I said this like last week. 336 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: He's just we know who he is now. I actually 337 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: appreciate Pregman because we know he's like a twenty five 338 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: homer guy, and that's what you should consider him. And 339 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: if you like twenty five homer ninety ninety, you know, 340 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: questionable batting average between two seventy and two ninety third baseman. 341 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: That's solid, but it's not elite. That's just who he's 342 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: gonna be. And he has some outputs like this this 343 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: day in Baseball nineteen twenty one, Ty Cobb gets hit 344 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 1: number three thousand of Boston pitcher Elmer Myers. At thirty 345 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: four years old, he's the youngest to ever do it. 346 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: I liked that wonky piece here that she put together. 347 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: And then I have a trivia question and I took 348 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 1: the answer off Cleig, so you can play along on Thursday. 349 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: Albert poolhols it is sixteenth Grand Slam of his career, 350 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,439 Speaker 1: sixteenth of his career tying him for tenth on the 351 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: all time list. Who is MLB's all time leader in 352 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 1: Grand Slams? Do you know? 353 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 3: I don't know. 354 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,199 Speaker 2: I'm gonna guess it's somebody like pretty high up on 355 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 2: the all time home run list, though. 356 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: Good guess any guesses, I'll repeat the question. Well, Clig 357 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: thinks on Thursday, Hale say it is sixteenth Grand Slam, 358 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 1: tying him for tenth on the list. So you know 359 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: sixteen is tenth on the list. Who is the all 360 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 1: time leader? And this is not something that you're gonna 361 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,959 Speaker 1: be This is not somebody like in the nineteen hundreds 362 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 1: or whatever. 363 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just a more recent player. 364 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 2: I'm gonna just take a shot at a rod because 365 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,400 Speaker 2: I do remember him hitting a good many Grand Slams. 366 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 3: So I don't know if he's at the top or not. 367 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 3: But that's my guess. 368 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: Yep, just Bob dropped it. You dropped it, that's right, 369 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 1: twenty five career Grand slams. Alex Rodriguez, Bonds would have 370 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: bombs would have been my guess. That's what JP and 371 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: Wonkey did. I would have one hundred percent went to 372 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:23,640 Speaker 1: Bonds even first, But no, Alex Rodriguez twenty five Grand Slams. 373 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 1: That is a lot. I think that's yeah. Alex Rodriguez 374 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: had more Grand Slams and one pier had career homers. 375 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: I think that I think that's a correct stat. I 376 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 1: don't remember one peer's homers, but I do feel like 377 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,360 Speaker 1: we've talked about it this year. Stat heroes Alex Bregman 378 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: four for six, two homers, a stolen base as well 379 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: as a little combole action and six RBI, take four runs. 380 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 1: Every bet on him paid off. Brian Reynolds, we talked 381 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: about continues to heat up, keeps it going three for four, 382 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: two homers, four RBI. Andrew mccutchon had two bombs as 383 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: well three RBI, three runs, Chas McCormick a homer, five 384 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: RBI twenty one runs. We didn't really mention yesterday the 385 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 1: Astros put up on the white Sox. Wilson Contreras had 386 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 1: two homers. Hunter Renfro perfect three for three with a 387 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 1: home run. Lars Nootbar, but I think we mentioned on 388 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: the DFS stacks to take a look at he was 389 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 1: two for three with a homer, two RBI. Springer five 390 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 1: for five, Albert Poohols with that bomb in Yondi Diaz 391 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: two for four, homer three RBIs. On the pitching side, 392 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 1: we talked about Gallon. He had seven and one third, 393 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 1: only give up four hits with twelve strikeouts. JD. Brewbaker 394 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: seven and seven, Adam Wainwright seven and seven, you Darvish 395 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: eight and one third, six strikeouts, and Max Fried seven 396 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: with six caves. JD. Brewbakers another one of those guys 397 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,400 Speaker 1: that has just been like sneaky production in the right matchups. Clegg, 398 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: is he one of those like on your eye, get 399 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,120 Speaker 1: him in a rotation of streamable pitchers for the rest 400 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 1: of the season into the playoffs, because he's definitely been that. Really, 401 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: I'm asking like, is he streamable or is he a 402 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: guy you want to hold on to for matchups through 403 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: the rest of the year. 404 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 2: I think you can hold on to him and play 405 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 2: matchups with him, and you know, really you look at 406 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 2: his game again as a recent outside of the big 407 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 2: blow up against the Phillies where he allowed seven earned 408 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 2: he's been pretty good and over his last three especially 409 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 2: in solids. He faced the Orioles d Backs and then 410 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 2: the Red Sox last night. But still, I mean, the 411 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 2: production's there and I almost think he's a hole, and 412 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 2: you roster him and you plug him in really in 413 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 2: almost any matchup, because for the most part this year 414 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 2: he's been pretty serviceable, especially in a deeper league if 415 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 2: you're in like a fifteen team or I think that 416 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,400 Speaker 2: brew Baker's one you can really run with moving forward 417 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 2: and rest of the season. 418 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 1: It's one of those guys we're gonna start. We're gonna 419 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 1: start this up where we're gonna be like if you 420 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 1: get brew Baker on the Cardinals, you get brew Baker 421 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: on the Mariners, just wait and it's like what they 422 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: do the Pirates. The Pirates brew up pictures for other teams. 423 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: That's what they developed, Pictures that will succeed elsewhere and 424 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 1: not in Pittsburgh. Maybe one day. Stat zero's Cody Bellinger 425 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 1: Andrew Benintended, Trent Grisham and Brandon nemo all zero for 426 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: four with three strikeouts yesterday. I feel that Grisham one 427 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: real hard and Cody Bellinger, we know they're gonna start 428 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 1: giving some rest and you should have rested him on 429 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: the waiver wire weeks ago. Pitchers Lucas Gielito three innings, 430 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: seven earned runs, Woolf Zach Log seven earned runs, Antonio 431 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 1: Senzatela didn't even get into the second with that injury, 432 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: but he gave up five earned runs to boot Logan 433 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: Web four and two third nine hits with three earned runs, 434 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 1: zero strikeouts, and Frankie Montoss six earned run, eight hits, 435 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:34,360 Speaker 1: two k's. Had a parlay bet yesterday of team total 436 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,120 Speaker 1: through the first five one and a half on the Pirates, 437 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 1: one and a half on the Blue Jays for both 438 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: of those attacked. Frankie Montass that's smacked in the second inning. 439 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: Shout out to my boy John Legaza who had that 440 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: on his free Patreon sheet. I loved it. Team totals 441 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 1: are kind of the fun way to play right now. 442 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: First five is really rough. Lines are really rough total bases. 443 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: I'm about to tell you how crazy total bases are 444 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: getting right now. So if you can get some team 445 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: totals in attack, it worked out. And I hit that 446 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: one in the second inning yesterday and that one was 447 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 1: a nice little plus money two hundred and I had 448 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,120 Speaker 1: a little boost on it for three hundred. So get 449 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: them bets in here. Homer leaderboard, we don't have one. 450 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: We don't have an updated homer and leaderboard, but I 451 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 1: can update you that we got a tie. Deeblum Manny Machado. 452 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: Homer last night got him tied with high Cubby forty four. 453 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: Forty four Go Cards and Mike Mayor both had Machado 454 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: as well. They are on the heels at forty two, 455 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 1: tarry down at forty one. We had a little bit 456 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: of action lower getting up, but we have five people 457 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: in the forties and it is a tight race as 458 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:40,919 Speaker 1: we get to the back half of the year. And 459 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,439 Speaker 1: I think I would have hit my guy as a 460 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: total base prop, but not my actual player. And that 461 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: takes us over to the king of sports betting, even 462 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 1: the Queen.

The top 502 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: strikeout play and I think the top play of any 503 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: of them today is strikeouts three and a half Cutter 504 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: Crawford with Boston versus Baltimore. It's juiced at minus one 505 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: fifty nine, but they're projecting six and the numbers only 506 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: at three and a half, So that's your top play. 507 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: Your money play over on the betting pros mlbprop cheat 508 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 1: sheet is Tristan McKenzie for strikeouts five and a half 509 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 1: is the over under. They project him at almost six 510 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: and a half and it's plus one twenty now on 511 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 1: the hitters the total bases, the top play is Ruben 512 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: and o'dor so. On the other side, they love Cutter Crawford, 513 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 1: but they like Rugi. Rugi projected at almost two total bases. 514 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: You only need one, but it's one seventy three. This 515 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 1: was the wild one. I had to scroll pages to 516 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: find the first plus money today, and the first one 517 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: I found was one Soto on the third page of 518 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 1: the betting pros cheat sheet. One Soto versus Washington total 519 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 1: bases one and a half projected it to plus one ten. 520 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:58,360 Speaker 1: So Clig, big old mouthful, Cutter, Crawford, Tristan McKenzie, Odoor, 521 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 1: and Sodo considered the juice. What plays do you actually like? 522 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 2: Well, Copper Crawford one seems pretty safe, and I guess 523 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 2: that's the reason this, You know as is he you 524 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 2: know all, he doesn't strike out a ton. You look 525 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 2: at his outings and he's only had you had to 526 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 2: go back. He only struck out four on sorry two 527 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 2: on July twenty eighth, but other than that, you'd have 528 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 2: to go back to June eighteenth to find an outing 529 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 2: where he struck out less than three or less than four, 530 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,640 Speaker 2: I guess, per se, So that one seems pretty safe, 531 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 2: and against Baltimore seemed like you could go with that pick. 532 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 3: So I do like that one to go over like 533 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 3: three money one. 534 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 1: Do you like the McKenzie against Chicago five and a 535 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: half or Soto to total bases versus Washington. 536 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 2: Mackenzie could is he's just risky and inconsistent, like he's 537 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,199 Speaker 2: been good, but the strikeout totals have been kind of 538 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 2: all over the place with him. 539 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 3: So it's highly likely that he could go strike out ten. 540 00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 2: But it's also possible that he goes and you know 541 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 2: it's a five spot up. I mean, his last doubt 542 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 2: he only struck out three in six and two thirds. 543 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 2: You just don't know what you're getting from. Is kind 544 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 2: of a mixed bag there. The Sodo one, I feel 545 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 2: pretty good about it. I feel like Soda is going 546 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 2: to have a big game against his old team, so 547 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:14,679 Speaker 2: like at some point, so I. 548 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 1: Would love it to bed have done it last night, 549 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 1: but I would go with that. So, by the way, 550 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: this is the big mystery too. The mystery is going 551 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,360 Speaker 1: to be who sent them go kart? Says cousin Donnie. 552 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 2: Uh. 553 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: And then right here if Joe knows Welsh's address, so 554 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 1: everybody knows Joe's cousin Donnie. Donnie lives right down the 555 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: street from me. But here's the key who was in 556 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: an Amazon package. I think I know who it is. 557 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: I'm guessing, and it's it's more of an ITL person 558 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 1: who is always here. My guess it is Jesse or 559 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: Tummy Lesorta if he comes in here. But who knows 560 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: My address is out there in the IL Army when 561 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,439 Speaker 1: people send things. The mystery of the tiaras will live on. 562 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: We'll try to uncover it. We got plenty, plenty of 563 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 1: pretty ones. It does not sit very I got to 564 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 1: figure out how to really like wear it. Well, it's 565 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: a you know what, Clegg just for you. I'll bring 566 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: you one during first pitch. I'll bring you one if. 567 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 3: You would like game muse, I'll gladly take one. 568 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: Okay, awesome. Over on the DFS side, Draft Kings, FanDuel. 569 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: Here's some plays for today and DraftKings. See McClanahan is 570 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:16,199 Speaker 1: ten to two, Blake snell is nine to three. Obviously 571 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,439 Speaker 1: you're gonna probably want to play one, big dog. I 572 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: feel like there could be some fading on McClanahan just 573 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: because he struggled a little bit. I like some of 574 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,919 Speaker 1: the lower plays. Miles michelis seven to three and Patrick 575 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: Sandoval seven to two. Over on FanDuel, You're gonna get 576 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: McLanahan at eleven two. Snell is ten to five, Patrick 577 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: Sandoval is eight seven. There's some big implied run totals 578 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: across the board. Milwaukee, San Francisco, Dodgers in Saint Louis 579 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: all over five. I believe the Giants were projected at 580 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: six if I'm remembering correctly. So if you want to 581 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: attack any of the same players that we've kind of 582 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 1: been doing, you know, take top of the lineup Milwaukee, 583 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: San Francisco, Dodgers and Saint Louis, let's end it out. 584 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: Home run calls guests have been pretty on fire. I 585 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: don't think I've hit all week. I've been so close. 586 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: I talk myself out of one. I talk to myself 587 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: out of shee Leangaliers, Cleig, what do you think? What 588 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: do you got for home run call for today? 589 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 2: I'm going with Rafael Devers in Baltimore. Jordan Lyle's pitching. 590 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 2: I think it sets up pretty nicely for him. You know, 591 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 2: obviously we see the you know part factor totally change 592 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 2: in Baltimore. I don't think that's affected left handed hitters 593 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 2: as much. So I like Devers tonight, give me the 594 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 2: home run call with him. So Raphael Devers is the pick. 595 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 1: Here, all right? I like it. We've got Wonkey with 596 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: a Patrick Wisdom call. Like that Mayor is going Sodo. 597 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna just go back to Goldie. It is a 598 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 1: diamondback play. That's why I like Michael is Goldie and 599 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 1: his old against his old team. I like that this 600 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 1: is a weekend play, obviously, I mean, Wonkey, you can 601 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 1: change it if you're gonna have somebody else weekend. But 602 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 1: I'm guessing Mayor is going through the weekend for Sodo. 603 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 1: I'm going through the weekend for Goldie. You've got Devers 604 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 1: good calls, and the mystery is gonna live on. Jag 605 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: In Here says Nope, it was not him. Buster says 606 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 1: Amazon Package it was Jeff Bezos. It could have been. 607 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: I like Wonky's goodness. If I can get your address, 608 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 1: I'll order an adult male Tiara, which I guarantee, which 609 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 1: is very true. So the mystery lives on. I don't 610 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 1: one hundred percent know there are it's out there. We're 611 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: going to try to uncover it. But the tir is 612 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: officially back in our stat line for the day. Doctor 613 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: Glenn has given me an outing a perfect nine, well 614 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: not perfect, but going nine to earned runs nine strikeouts 615 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: is my performance for hosting today, which I've had a 616 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 1: very good run this week, but it's all thanks to 617 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: the Tiara. It was I got some run support, if 618 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: you will. I gave up to earned runs, but I 619 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: had some run support from that awesome guy right there, 620 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: Chris Cleig and the Tiara. We were able to go 621 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: nine almost like Darvis should have done last night. Get nine, 622 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 1: give up a couple, get some good strikeouts. That's my performance. 623 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: I wonder what my era was this week, Clig, what's 624 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: going on, my friend? What do you got going down? 625 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: Podcast wise, article wise, anything people need to know. 626 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, you can find the weekly Quick Grades article out 627 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 2: for hitters and that is should be out today later 628 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 2: today if not, and that covers hitters for next week, 629 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 2: so some Monday through Sunday, and I think Devers was 630 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 2: actually top on that list. I have to pull it 631 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 2: up and see to confirm that's coming out on Fantasy 632 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 2: Pros and then Prospects Stashes as well. That's out of 633 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 2: each Tuesday. We had Brett Baty at the top of 634 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 2: that list. So that was a clutch call there he 635 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 2: came up you know, or he got the call a 636 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 2: few hours after that published, so that was fun to see. 637 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 2: And then over at Fantracks as well, doing some dynasty 638 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 2: and prospect work there. 639 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 3: Oh no, I was wrong on Devers. 640 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 2: Actually, the top graded out player for next week is Eloy. 641 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 2: I like ELOI Jmenez a lot, and it's all stat 642 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 2: based stuff, so Eloy grades out well, He's kind of 643 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 2: come back strong, so it could be a big week 644 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 2: for Eloy and honestly, a lot of white Sox graded 645 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 2: well for next week. 646 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: Well, there you go.
