1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: Has the fish gone bad? Let's play ball. Welcome and 2 00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: everybody to Fantasy Bros. This is leading Off, brought to 3 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,479 Speaker 1: you by bet MGM, the King of sports books. It's me, 4 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: Joey Pa Joe Piezopia with me. Today is the Welsh, 5 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 1: and of course it's you and we're talking baseball a 6 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: lot to get to the big Mike Trout news that 7 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: dropped yesterday. Is it a big deal? Is it the 8 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: biggest deal? Is it not a deal at all? The 9 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: Mets sweep the Yankees. Max Schurzer gets a huge outing 10 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,319 Speaker 1: on his birthday, but he doesn't get a w We've 11 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 1: also got a lot of injury news and another trade 12 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,279 Speaker 1: to talk about too. The trade wins are starting to blow, Welsh. 13 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: So are you ready for the wind? 14 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 2: I am ready for them. I'm ready to speculate and prognosticate. 15 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 2: I'm ready for all of the craziness to go on. 16 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 2: I do love the daily Soto change, though, I'm gonna 17 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 2: tell you I'm gonna miss that in mid next week. 18 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 2: Where yesterday it was the Yankees, today it's the Padres. 19 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 2: The day before that it was the Cardinal, Like I 20 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 2: kind of am going to miss who he could go 21 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: to the game of musical chairs. But it will all 22 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 2: be taken care of by Tuesday. 23 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: I've seen some of the dumbest scenarios out there. It's 24 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 1: like it's it's almost as though people covering baseball were 25 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: pretending to cover baseball, have no idea how the structure 26 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: of baseball works. I know, I don't understand. It drives 27 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: me crazy. It's hilarious, but that's fine. I mean, no, 28 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I've just seen some scenarios that people have 29 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,400 Speaker 1: been thrown out there who work four places, even places 30 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: like MLB dot com where I just got I just 31 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: die just you know, really, really that's the scenario. You 32 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: would think that is what's gonna get SODO done. You 33 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: think you think the generational talent is gonna get moved 34 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,919 Speaker 1: for that, that's the deal. Yeah, sure, whatever. But anyway, Welsh, 35 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: let's start with the headlines from yesterday, and we have 36 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: to start with Mike Trout because that's the biggest man. 37 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: He is diagnosed with a Okay, I'm gonna try to 38 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: say this right, controvertible dysfunction. Did I say it right? 39 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: We've always been a dysfunctional podcast. Now we're constravertible. 40 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 2: We went to completely two different songs there by the way, 41 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 2: I just wanted to point out. 42 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: But it was like we were singing it in a 43 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: round almost. It was really nice, like controvertible function convert. 44 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: So look, I mean, he's a one doctor says, here 45 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: you go, Doctor Robert Watkins says, who is a very 46 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: well known spinal surgeon in the country. This is what 47 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: he does. Uh, this is a very rare thing. He 48 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: has to manage it, not just through the season, but 49 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: also the rest of his career. Probably. Mike Trout says, dysfunctions, 50 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: fish function, no big deal. I'm all good. Uh, it 51 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: feels great. I'll be fine. Every day is improving. Look, 52 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: it's it's always a I'm gonna harken back to the 53 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: David Wright spinal stenosis diagnosis that happened towards the end 54 00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: of his career. I'm sure you would call that he 55 00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: was never the same player after that, never the same 56 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 1: player after that. I think this is time here where 57 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: Mike Trout's had an amazing run, but I think we 58 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,959 Speaker 1: have to come to that moment where we realize he 59 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,079 Speaker 1: might not be that guy anymore. 60 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: I think it's a yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, how 61 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,119 Speaker 2: you said that? He is not. I have a hard 62 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 2: time believing he's going to be able to function as 63 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 2: the same player. The problem is is, I do think 64 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 2: over the last couple of years we've kind of gotten 65 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 2: a preview of what that Mike Trout would look like 66 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 2: because he's had constant issues and stuff like that. So 67 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 2: that might be where we're heading. I mean, he's been 68 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 2: missing games. 69 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: Well, it could be part of what's going on here, 70 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: is this condition is just yeah, it's causing him to 71 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: compensate or his body to move in different ways, you know. 72 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: I mean that's the thing. It's like you can have 73 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: a back issue and then it ends up becoming another 74 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: issue somewhere else, or or you know, vice versa. It's 75 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: it's the body's a funny thing. It's doctor Glen knows 76 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: you hit over. 77 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 2: Thirty and we all have had some type of back 78 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 2: issue which is pushed into something else. So I was 79 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: talking about the yesterday and it well, like I think 80 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 2: the dynasty value is hurt here, regardless of even if 81 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 2: it was quickly reactionary, we actually had talked about it 82 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 2: the minute the news came down. We didn't get was 83 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 2: how Mike Trout was like, hey, listen, It's really not 84 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: as big as everybody's making it out to be. Everyone's 85 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 2: saying my career is over. It's not. You know, I'm 86 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 2: gonna keep going. But I think from a dynasty perspective reaction, 87 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 2: you got to bring him down, bring him down from 88 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 2: maybe he was sitting into the teens down to the 89 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 2: thirties at this point, and maybe further if you really 90 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 2: are worried about this. From a redraft perspective, he says, 91 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 2: we'll be back this year. I have a hard time 92 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 2: believing why the Angels would do it at this point 93 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 2: and why they wouldn't just pack it in with him, 94 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 2: let him take the rest of the year to recover 95 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 2: from this, to come into next year. This team refuses 96 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 2: to blow this team up, so they're going to be 97 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 2: at this same spot next year. And the third piece 98 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 2: Joe that I speculate on, So I wonder long term, 99 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 2: I don't see how you can keep trotting Mike Trout 100 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 2: out into the outfield every day. Here's the problem they 101 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 2: have quite the dh in sho Aotani. I wonder if 102 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 2: they speculate, maybe not this year, but if they start 103 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 2: to speculate with Otani playing more positional stuff into the 104 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 2: near future and he gets that qualification because he's gonna 105 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: have to give that up a little bit for Trout. 106 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 2: You're either gonna take it bats away from one of 107 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 2: the two, which I think Trout a little bit is 108 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,799 Speaker 2: probably gonna have to sit more often than we expect. 109 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 2: So I think future projections, I can't go over one 110 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 2: twenty on Trout anymore, and I won't for the rest 111 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 2: of his career. That's gonna be my projection. But maybe 112 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: we start seeing Otawni move into other spots. Maybe he 113 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 2: plays some left field, maybe he plays some first base. 114 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 2: Next year, you're gonna lose, you know, some of the 115 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 2: guys that they've got in there. Just speculating on that. 116 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 2: Maybe Otani is going to get some other value in 117 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: the near future. But they're really trying to play it 118 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 2: down for us right now. And we'll see. We'll see 119 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 2: how real Trout's words are. If he does come back 120 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 2: this year, if he gets back on the outfield, then 121 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 2: he doesn't miss games. 122 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: I think the Trout contract's going to be, at the 123 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: end of the day, one that the Angles end up regretting. 124 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 2: I do, really, I do. 125 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: It sucks to think that, Like I just you know, 126 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: because I'm just bringing up a spot track right now 127 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 1: because I wanted to see just how many years he's 128 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: got left here. 129 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 2: I mean, I think he has signed into twenty thirty one. 130 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's actly, it's twenty thirty, right, and basically he's 131 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: making thirty five million dollars a year from now till 132 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: twenty thirty. And I don't think you're gonna get that 133 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: value out of that player. I just don't. 134 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 2: I will never There's nothing you guys can tell me. 135 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 2: I'll never understand. Because I see a couple people in 136 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 2: here talking about the contract. Red Baron had said, I 137 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 2: don't understand the ten and fifteen. I've been saying it forever. 138 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 2: I don't get this every contract. I think it's a 139 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 2: disadvantage to baseball in general to be like, all right, 140 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: here's our contract offer. It's fifteen years. Here you go, Soto, 141 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 2: here's your entire cars. 142 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 1: Well, they're trying to lock in the superstars before the 143 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: market goes into a crazy stratosphere, because every five to 144 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: ten years it does. But the problem is the commitment 145 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,119 Speaker 1: to the players. I mean, it's it's a sport. Guys 146 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: get hurt, things happen, and it ends up most of 147 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: the time becoming a bad thing. Like the deals that 148 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 1: have long term deals with opt outs. I think the 149 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: opt outs are very good for both parties. 150 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,479 Speaker 2: I think it should be five years. You should have nothing. 151 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 2: You should have nothing more than five years straight you 152 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 2: have no options. But if you have an eight year 153 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 2: contract all three years, well. 154 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: The only time a ten year contract. I mean, if 155 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: you're going to do a ten year contract, you do 156 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: with a Wander Franco. You do it with a Fernando Tattis, 157 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: you do with a guy in his early twenties. 158 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 2: We also do it with Trout. You do it with Trout, 159 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 2: a player like Trout. That's the type of player you do. 160 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 2: But the problem is nobody can escape how stupid and 161 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 2: bad fifteen year contracts are. The only time it's an 162 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 2: advantage to teams is when these guys are like Azzi 163 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 2: Albi's and Acuna like twenty one twenty two. The players, 164 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 2: it's not an advantage because by the back half of 165 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 2: their contract they're being paid way lower than they probably 166 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 2: would five to six years max. That should be these contracts. 167 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: It's good for. 168 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 2: Everybody because baseball doesn't have a system to protect some 169 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 2: teams and the lower teams are the ones that just 170 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 2: decimate their rosters of these huge contracts. Then they're hampered 171 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 2: by the financial restrictions of thirty five to forty million 172 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 2: dollars baseball. 173 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: The economics of baseball are broken, and they have been 174 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: broken for many years. They refusal to have a salary cap. 175 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: It means that you're I mean, look, who are the 176 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: teams that are trading off. It's the Royals, it's the Tigers. 177 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: It's the same old teams that are trading off. And yes, 178 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: the Tigers have runs here and there, and yes the 179 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: Royals made it to a World Series and one they 180 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: had a window of time, but nothing sustainable. So unless 181 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: you have a real hard salary cap, which you're never 182 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: going to have a Major League Baseball this is what 183 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna have. You're never going to have a competitive 184 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: balance that lasts ever. It's just not going to happen. 185 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: So either you have to have owners who are willing 186 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: to spend and go into these markets and do that, 187 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: or this is what you have, which is pretty much 188 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: fifteen teams are feeding the other fifteen teams. And I 189 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: know that sounds like a crappy thing, but it's true. 190 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: It's pretty much where. 191 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 2: The dogs Dodgers don't care about what they do. They 192 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,319 Speaker 2: lost a picks, they lost a pick so they can 193 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 2: go over the cap. They don't care about. 194 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: They don't care. 195 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 2: And the chats again. I'll tell you this, like I 196 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 2: don't care about either side. Like I see, I think 197 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 2: it was Wanky's talking about, well, what the player gets injured, 198 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:03,719 Speaker 2: then they can cash. I don't want the player. I 199 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 2: don't want an injured player to take advantage of it. 200 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 2: I don't want Steven Strasburg to be on this contract 201 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 2: for as long as he is when he's well. 202 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: This is what happens when all the money in baseball 203 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: is guaranteed. And this is why in ANFL it's not 204 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 1: you know, and this is why baseball players, you know, 205 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: in in a lot of senses. You know, baseball in 206 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: terms of path is a better one. All right, let's 207 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: talk about some other things here going on. Jacob Degram 208 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: did allow for earned runs to give up a bunch 209 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: of homers yesterday, but certainly on his way back, it 210 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: seems like things are going in that right direction. So 211 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 1: fingers crossed, I mean, spring training guys usually have that 212 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,199 Speaker 1: one start where they're not quite there with their location. 213 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 1: I imagine this is kind of that start for him. 214 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: So I'm not freaking out like some other people are. 215 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: As long as he doesn't feel ill or wrong after 216 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: the start, it's fine. Matt Olsen slugs his twenty home 217 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: run for the Bravest. I think Marte had that walk 218 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 1: off RBI after Max suerz Or went seven innings first time. 219 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: Sures has gone seven innings, by the way, since his 220 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: injury when he's come back, So this is a night, 221 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: this little demarcation for him. Bobby dallback homer twice, drove 222 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: in five runs, but it was a loss. We told 223 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 1: you get into that Cleveland Boston game last night, so 224 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: hopefully you did. Hopefully you had Louis Castil yesterday too. 225 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 1: That was our favorite DFS pitcher that worked out. Also 226 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: of the Yankees acquired Andrew Benintendi from the Royals for 227 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 1: beck Way, Chandler Champagne and TJ. Sikima. Now Benintendi was 228 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 1: rumored to be moving for quite some time. He has moved. 229 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: He's also said that he is going to now get 230 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 1: vaccinated because he's a Yankee and they want him to. 231 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: So there you have it. Isn't that sort of an 232 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: interesting piece of news. I thought that was kind of odd. 233 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was kind of weird, just like if you 234 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 2: want to play. 235 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: For US, well, I mean, I mean, I guess a 236 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: lot of jobs do that, but I just thought it 237 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: was kind of like, so it's more than to win 238 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 1: games for the Yankees, but not the win games for 239 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 1: the Royals. Got it? Got it, Andrew, I see how 240 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: it is. 241 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 2: I don't know. All of this is weird. That was weird. 242 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 2: The trade was weird. I thought it was pretty low return. 243 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 2: Three pitchers. Beck Way is interesting. Probably the best long 244 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 2: term starter TJ. Tkhma just been kind of banged up 245 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 2: for a couple of years. Was a high pick, might 246 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 2: be a back end starter, probably more of a reliever. 247 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 2: I just thought they would get a bigger piece for 248 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,839 Speaker 2: a guy hitting three twenty, but they didn't, and they 249 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 2: just got kind of this weird haul. And there's also 250 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 2: off of speculation. It's not one hundred percent, but you 251 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 2: can theorize that this eliminates the Yankees and takes the 252 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 2: Yankees out of the contention of trying to go and 253 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 2: get one soda. They got their outfield. I think they 254 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 2: were priced out. 255 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: I told you before the Soda and the Yankees wasn't happened. 256 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: They need a pitcher in the worst way. They be 257 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: Bo been helping out in the worst way. That's where 258 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: the Yankees are going. Maybe they'll get another bat and maybe, 259 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: but it's not gonna be Soda. I just that that's farce. 260 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 2: Camillo was the big one that they were talking about. 261 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: That's gonna be the guy. And it's funnycause the Royals 262 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: are coming to play the Yankees this week, which is funny. 263 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: It's like, Oh, you guys are coming over. Oh what 264 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: do you want to You want to bring a bottle 265 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: of wine? Not just bird springing out. 266 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 2: Just bring Benny. Just bring Benny a little bit that. Yeah, 267 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 2: the funny thing with the Castille thing too. Just one 268 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 2: random slide note as well. But the Yankees look like 269 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 2: they're gonna spend on pitching and they're gonna spin. Yesterday 270 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 2: on the show, I speculated to be Pablo Lopez. The 271 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 2: report came out that it is Luis Castillo or bust. 272 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 2: So watch that funny note about Louis Castillo. We talked 273 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 2: about the prop yesterday. I think I had that we 274 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 2: both had that. I don't remember but it was. It 275 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 2: was five and a half. It then moved to six 276 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 2: and a half, went to big plus money, and it's 277 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 2: still cash. Castillo was just an absolute money maker yesterday. Regardless. 278 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: If you go and look, the Yankees get cassed, they 279 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: need Castillo number one, number two. I think he'll I 280 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: think he will do well there. I think that's energetic guy, 281 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: and I think he's going to do well there. Pouhos 282 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 1: ruined myke Kevin Gossman share though, yesterday because Poulos launched 283 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: the home run. I thought for sure, hey, let's troll 284 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: the Cardinals. Right. Nope, it turned out to be a 285 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: classic baseball moment where you know they line up with 286 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 1: nobody else in it all of a sudden, beat the 287 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: good pitcher, and it happens Gable a Day hit his 288 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: first major league homer. So congratulations for JJ and Castillo 289 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: picks up his winning which is probably his last start 290 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: for the Reds. Some good news, bad news and the 291 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: injury mix. Good news, Josh Young shoulder injury is gonna 292 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: be cleared for his rehab assignment. So this this is 293 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: a guy that can help you. If he's floating out 294 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: there on the waiver wire, grab him. He's gonna play. 295 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 2: Well, guess what. Let me give you one further. He 296 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 2: is scheduled to d H tonight in the Arizona Complex League, 297 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 2: and I will be over there because this guy's going. 298 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 2: I will be right there as long as it doesn't rain. 299 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 2: It's actually kind of rainy out here, but Josh, it's 300 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 2: been raining all lead. But I will be there getting 301 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 2: some video and stuff if he does and it doesn't rain. 302 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: So good news on him. Good news on last. Mcclors 303 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: are through fifty two pitches in the rehab assignment. Why 304 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 1: he's throwing that many, I'm not sure, because he's just 305 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 1: gonna end up in the bullpen anyway, or traded for 306 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: all I know. I mean, that'd be fascinating. What colors 307 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 1: I think is a fascinating piece for some other team 308 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,719 Speaker 1: to take on. That is one piece that I think 309 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: could bring something else. I've been thinking. 310 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 2: Sorry, I mean to interrupt you. I'm just gonna always 311 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 2: do with him well, and I'm I like it to 312 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 2: something else, you know, the Soda trades. The rumor again 313 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 2: today is hey, Sodo to the Padres. They had the 314 00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 2: best offer, and you and I have kind of agreed, 315 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 2: like if that and I Potters were my number one 316 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 2: for a while. Here it's got to be Gore, and 317 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 2: then it's also got to be Abrams. But the Gore 318 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 2: injury makes it weird. How often are especially pitchers who 319 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 2: are on any type of injured list or injured in 320 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 2: some capacity, how often are they actually traded? And that's 321 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 2: why I'm liking it back to McCulloch, because he's perpetually traded. 322 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 2: I just don't recall like a guy that was on 323 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 2: an I L or something being in a move around 324 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 2: the trade deadline. So I don't know, I mean, obviously, 325 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 2: but nobody. 326 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: Takes a guy who's gonna have Tommy John surgery or 327 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: just coming off. That doesn't happen. 328 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: But would you even be comfortable taking the McCullers even 329 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 2: though he's kind of rehabbing, I mean, he's I. 330 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: Would feel more comfortable taking McCullers on the way back 331 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: because he's also shown you at the big league level 332 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: he's had some pretty good success, Like there's there's something 333 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: to work with there, he's got a pedigree. But no, 334 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 1: I mean that's not happening. Also, Well's headed to the 335 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: IL for Baltimore. He had an issue last night so 336 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: we'll see how long he's going to be out for 337 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: us a back injury and the Marlins Max Meyer is 338 00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: gonna beat Tommy John surgery, which we could have seen 339 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: this coming. I mean, just so obvious. It was just 340 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: it hurt how obvious this was, and very disappointing because 341 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: we had high expectations and now they have gone up 342 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: in Smoke Welsh. 343 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 2: I'm super super bummed about. I just saw this like 344 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 2: ten minutes before we started the show, and that one's 345 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 2: a bummer because he was a big redraft guy for me. 346 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 2: He was one of my top pitchers in all the 347 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 2: prospect Land thought the strikeouts we are going to be there. 348 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 2: I thought the opportunity was going. 349 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: To be there. 350 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 2: And now he is not back until twenty twenty four, 351 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 2: and that decimates his value in Dynasty on the prospect list. 352 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 2: He can return, he can be fun and stuff like that, 353 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 2: but it is a far far plummet on Tommy John, 354 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 2: especially nearing the back end of the year. It sucks. 355 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's move on to can We talked about this. 356 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 1: Six swinging strikes by Aaron Judge ties his career game 357 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 1: high last night. All six were max schers or sliders. 358 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: Which I thought was fascinating. He got him to expand 359 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: the zone and Aaron Joje had Iron Judge had problems 360 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: with that. Now I'm wondering, not like the book is out, 361 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: because that's kind of silly, Judge. 362 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 2: Oh are you gonna are you gonna say sell on Judge? 363 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 2: Is he done? 364 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 1: No? No, no, no, no, I'm not. I'm just saying, 365 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: is you know Max Schurezer basically gave you the blueprint 366 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: in the playoffs of what to do with Aaron Judge 367 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: last night. I mean, he just pounded that if you 368 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: if you have a good slider, you could pound the 369 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: slider on the outside corner like that. He is gonna 370 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: expand the zone. He's gonna go fishing for it. And 371 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: I think it's funny because Max Sure's are such a 372 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: relentless personality that he was just like, no, screw you, 373 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep doing this because it's gonna work. And 374 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: I think people sometimes as pitchers, I think they they 375 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: lose that site. And I think it's the commitment to 376 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: staying with the game plan against a hitter like Aaron Judge. 377 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: And look, if you're gonna be MVP moments like last night, 378 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: can't happen like those are problems because those are the 379 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: things that stick in everybody's memory. Well, you had this 380 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: big spot in the big game, and what'd you do? 381 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: You struck out a bunch of times. That's not good. So, 382 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: like Aaron Judge had a great season. I'm not saying 383 00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: he hasn't, but I thought this was a very interesting 384 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: She's at bats. Last night when I got home from 385 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 1: football practice with my daughter, I was watching the Judge 386 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: at Bats specifically, and I was just like, Wow, Sheers 387 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: is just telling you this is how you do it. Kids. 388 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: You just be relentless and you're just a bulldog in there, 389 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 1: and you just keep pounding the same thing over and 390 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: over again because until he proves to you he can 391 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: do it, he can't. 392 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, i'd also throw out like the one of the things, 393 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 2: it's not one hundred percent of One of the things 394 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 2: that also makes a slider so great is the offerings 395 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 2: that the guy is thinking about and wanting to you know, 396 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 2: potentially Sureser's just got such a dominant basketball and just 397 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 2: dominant stuff in general that you're wanting to cheat in 398 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 2: every way that you possibly can. And you know, fastballs 399 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 2: are comfortable with and they feel pressed on other pitches, 400 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 2: and that's what also makes it so good. But I agree, 401 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, Judge is the type of guy 402 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 2: an entire division should consider developing pictures around being able 403 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,439 Speaker 2: to get a guy just like that out you go, 404 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 2: heavy heavy slider type of pictures. 405 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 1: The Rays get fancy like he's like, okay, well we 406 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: get Aaron Judge on fastball on sliders. Okay, but let's 407 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 1: let's let's fat ball in there. No, don't, don't, like, 408 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: just just make him do it until he Joji can 409 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,159 Speaker 1: also fun facts here. We got two of them today. 410 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: The Astros were swept yesterday for the first time all season. 411 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: Wow by who. The Athletics the lowly last place joke 412 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: terrible awful again. Another team is just a complete another joke. 413 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: The oplan A's I mean, you know, these teams have 414 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: no chance by the time this season even begins. It's 415 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: it's crappy, you know. I mean, I know the NFL 416 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: has that too. I know there's like a handful of teams, 417 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: but the NFL, it's like a handful of teams. There's 418 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: plenty of teams out there. They're in that middle where 419 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 1: you're like, you know, like the Bengals last year. You know, 420 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,400 Speaker 1: if the things break right, this team could. 421 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 2: Go on a run and then you know what the 422 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 2: problem is too. This is another baseball issue when we 423 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,719 Speaker 2: talked about contracts and stuff. It is so much harder 424 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 2: in baseball to turn that around, even though you have 425 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 2: these big, robust minor league systems. If you do it right. 426 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,239 Speaker 2: These teams that are bad are perpetually bad. Like look 427 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 2: at the Bengals. It just took it took Burrow and 428 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 2: Chase to change the entire organization around one or two players. 429 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 2: These teams in baseball, it is such a drag when 430 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 2: you're a bad team. I mean, the Diamondbacks and Orioles 431 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 2: have practically been drafting in the top five or six 432 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 2: of the MLB draft for the last three or four 433 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 2: years and they're just still doing all the same game. 434 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: So difficult because like you know, you've seen these guys 435 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: come through, whether it be Dylan Bundy, whether it be 436 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: you know, they've had all those pitchers for all those 437 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,640 Speaker 1: years that they didn't develop, and then that set them back, 438 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 1: and then some of the position players did not become 439 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 1: the players that they thought they were going to be. 440 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: I mean, Ryan montcas Is a not nice player. We'll 441 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: see what Adlee Rutchman becomes. But yeah, we shall see. 442 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: Another fun fact here. I love this one. This is 443 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,480 Speaker 1: about money players, right, guys who show up on accounts. 444 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: This is from Sarah Langs, who again one of the 445 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 1: best follows on Twitter. Starling Marte now has eleven walk 446 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,400 Speaker 1: off hits since the start of twenty fourteen. That's two 447 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: more than anyone else in Major League Baseball. So the 448 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 1: game on the line, that's the dude. 449 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 2: You want clutch, got that clutch gene. I like it clutch. 450 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: And look, Maher brings up a good point here, and 451 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to say nice things about him, but yes, 452 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: they did have Manny Machado, and what happened? They not 453 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: keep Manny Machada? Have they kept Manny Machado when he 454 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: was their player for the next ten years or whatever? 455 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,679 Speaker 1: It is like the retention of these players is impossible 456 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,119 Speaker 1: for these teams because of the way it's structured, or 457 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: because you know, it's funny to me because I feel 458 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 1: like these teams make money. They all have their own networks. 459 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: It feels like nowadays, right, they all have their own 460 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,640 Speaker 1: you know, giant TV deals. So what is it. Why 461 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: are these small market teams still small market in that 462 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,199 Speaker 1: sense because they all have TV deals, they all have 463 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: revenue sharing, So what is it? They just have that 464 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: small market mentality like, well, we can't spend because what if? 465 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it's. 466 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 2: Ridiculous, buddy. It is like, think of these as just 467 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 2: thirty different of the biggest businesses out there, and you know, 468 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 2: the Yankees and the Dodgers are the amazons and Google's 469 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:47,400 Speaker 2: endless spending, endless money coming in. The lowest ones are 470 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 2: you know, anywhere from like the small chains to the 471 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,119 Speaker 2: mom and pops and any money they can get in. 472 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 2: They're just doing whatever they can to boost the revenue. 473 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 2: It's like, what it's a thing that happens with the 474 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 2: phoenix suns out here people get pissed off. Is ownership 475 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 2: treats it truly like a business and is looking at 476 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 2: the bottom line, like when they're sitting and having meetings 477 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 2: about the bottom line and the profit in studying how 478 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 2: to make the team good. 479 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: But part of being successful product is putting a good product. 480 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, but the Royal we don't have a good game. 481 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: Well, maybe you should sign some players. 482 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 2: I agree that the Royals will never get the contracts 483 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 2: that the Yankees get with like their own one network, 484 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,400 Speaker 2: and the advertising dollars and the jersey sales and the tickets. 485 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 2: It's just it's never going to be there. So these 486 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 2: smaller teams just hold on as tight as they can 487 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 2: to every little dollar that comes in and penny pinch 488 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 2: and it's just it's absurd, the salary caps and all 489 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 2: that stuff. There's so many ways to make baseball better, 490 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 2: but you know they don't care. They don't care the 491 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:43,719 Speaker 2: league players. 492 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 1: And this day in Major League Baseball history, in nineteen 493 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 1: eighty nine, Vince Coleman was caught stealing by Nelson Santlvania. 494 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: Oh man, I remember Nelson Santelvania of the Montreal Expos, 495 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: and he breaks a streak of fifty straight consecutive stolen 496 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: bases for Vince Coleman. Imagine if these streat stolen bases 497 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: for Vince Coleman, It's pretty incredible. 498 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 2: That's an awesome They're. 499 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 1: Also another fun deep dive here on our boy Julio Rodriguez. 500 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: Like this step eighteen home runs, twenty one stolen bases, 501 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 1: twenty one years of age. Let's ask this question. Is 502 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 1: Julio Rodriguez right now the most valuable asset in baseball. 503 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 2: Oh, that's an interesting question because. 504 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: Of his age, because of his skill set. Is he 505 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: the most valuable potential asset in baseball right now? 506 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 2: I think that's a I don't know how to answer that, 507 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:34,199 Speaker 2: because if you just ask about players, you know, I 508 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 2: think the young guys you want to build your team 509 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 2: around are Tatifs and Akunya, especially from a fantasy perspective 510 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 2: building your team around. Also, you want the best pitchers. 511 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 2: You could argue Shane McClanahan, but from an age and 512 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 2: production and even war at this point, also marketing. Maybe 513 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe maybe he is. That's a wild 514 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 2: thing I hadn't even really processed. But maybe. 515 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: I mean, if you had a dynasty league starting, would 516 00:22:58,800 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: Julio be your one one? 517 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,400 Speaker 2: No, I haven't five right now overall, but he's top 518 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 2: five overall. But no, I don't have him quite there. 519 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 2: I mean, I think the more I think about it, 520 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 2: like Otani is the most valuable now from. 521 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: If you get right, if you're if you're using Otani 522 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,120 Speaker 1: as both the hitter and the picture, then. 523 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 2: Yes he is. In real life he is. He's international appeal, 524 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 2: a bigger market. 525 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: So that's the thing about an Otani trade, Like you 526 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 1: want to talk about backing up a truck. You're getting 527 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: two players like Otani you're getting. I was like, oh, 528 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: we really need another good starting pitcher, front end starting pitcher, 529 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 1: and the middle of the order bat. And then they're 530 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,959 Speaker 1: Shohe Otani, who can do both of those things. Completely 531 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: to me, if I'm the Angels, this is something I 532 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: consider doing because things are not going in the right direction. 533 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, this team is a page one rewrite. 534 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 1: Nothing has gone right for them. This trout contract's gotta 535 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: kill them for the next decade. They're not gonna be 536 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 1: able to win. I'm telling you, if I'm the Angels, 537 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: it is top to bottom. The president, the GM, the 538 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: all the scouting department gone. I'm getting rid of everybody, 539 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 1: and I'm starting fresh, and I'm bringing in the biggest 540 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,360 Speaker 1: haul I could possibly get because show Heyotani, like you said, 541 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: is probably the most valuable asset in real baseball, just say. 542 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 2: And fantasy if you can play him in both spots. 543 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 2: I don't think there's a question and any type of 544 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 2: dynasty that is I don't mean it's so specific, but 545 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 2: if it's a daily and it's a two way. It's 546 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,159 Speaker 2: hands down show hey Atani, and it's not even it's 547 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 2: not even close. 548 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:29,479 Speaker 1: Unfortunately, yesterday was Max Schurz's birthday. He had forty one 549 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: strikeouts now on his birthday, not in that one game. 550 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 1: That's over his career, the most all time for any 551 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 1: picture on his birthday. Fun fact and the trivia question, 552 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: which Hall of Famer did he pass? So? Who was 553 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 1: the best birthday boy pitcher before Max Scherz or I'll 554 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 1: be it somebody who's been around a long time. It 555 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: is a Hall of Famer. So if you know the answer, 556 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: I feel like a strikeout picture, well you know it, 557 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 1: drop it in the chat over here fantasy for his 558 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: MLB if you're watching the show live and I know 559 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: you are. Here's some stat hero from yesterday. Adam Wainwright 560 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: eight k's, one earned seven you darvish eleven strikecast boys, 561 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 1: he'd been good to earned run seven k's. He's been 562 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: great in the last couple of games since the break. 563 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 1: Jansen Junk, which is definitely my new favorite baseball name. 564 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:15,120 Speaker 1: Five innings, no earned, eight k's. That's right, that's the junk. 565 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: Ready in your face, Welsh take that what would you 566 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: give me for your for your Janson junk? 567 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, what would you get? Well, my junk's not for sale. 568 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 2: I like to keep my junk in house. 569 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: It is not Nolan Ryan and is not Justin Verlander. 570 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 2: Just so, oh, Ryan was my guest. That was my guest. 571 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: Then Marco Gonzalez two earned runs, five k's over seven 572 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,360 Speaker 1: hitters last night. Rowdy Till has two home runs. He's 573 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 1: up to twenty so all the rowdy friends came out 574 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: last night. Kyle Garlick two for three with one home run. 575 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 1: So the funniest tweet about this somebody needs to do 576 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 1: a better job of the trivia questions, the trivia or 577 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 1: the fun facts on the scoreboard about Kyle Garlick is 578 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: his name is very close to garlic, which is and 579 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: not like, really needs to do a little bit better 580 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 1: on these little things like. 581 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,880 Speaker 2: Wow, it will be actually more fun if if Rian 582 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 2: Garlic did not like garlic in anything, that would be 583 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 2: fun fun. 584 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: He's allergic to garlic or he doesn't care for Italian food. 585 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 1: There you go. Nolan Jones three for four with a ribby. 586 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 1: We had Jose Miranda three for four with a homer. 587 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 1: Year he's at a home run. Nolan Gorman two for 588 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 1: four with a home run and a stone base lost 589 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 1: speculation he is the lynchpin of the Wan Soto trade. 590 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: I mean, Nolan Gorman shouldn't be the lynchpin of the 591 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: Wan Soto trade. Uh, that's a failure from the Nationals. Sorry, 592 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: like Nolan Gorman's fine. 593 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 2: I actually speculated on our live stream yesterday, Bagman and 594 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 2: I I speculated a Castillo trade to the Cardinals with 595 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 2: Nolan Gorman involved. That was one that I was playing 596 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,880 Speaker 2: around with and divisionally. But Gorman being part of. 597 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:54,360 Speaker 1: A big SP trade, Yeah, that that that seems very 598 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: possible that there he's gonna be part of an s 599 00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:00,639 Speaker 1: P trade. But I don't know, and like it just 600 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, he's up there and he's playing 601 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 1: right now. It's so he's tough to get rid of 602 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: those guys because you've got to replace him in the 603 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: lineup you want. 604 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 2: To now, you know what, You'd be surprised though with 605 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 2: that team. I mean, they do have Paul Deung kind 606 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 2: of still sitting around and hitting, but they got Mundo 607 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 2: Sosa who they really like, and if they put Sosa 608 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 2: in at second, it would change nothing as far as 609 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 2: them having to move their lineup around if they got 610 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 2: rid of Gorman, and that leaves the possibility off de 611 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 2: youong ever figures things back out, they could bring him in, 612 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 2: or they could go get a cheap mental Infielder're just 613 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 2: pointing out, so I actually really think that's what I 614 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,640 Speaker 2: really think. Nolan Gorman could go and will go. If 615 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 2: the Cardinals are aggresive about getting a starting pitcher, which 616 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 2: they should be, they have nobody. It is Michaelis and 617 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:41,439 Speaker 2: Wainwright and nothing. 618 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 1: Well, I will tell you this. If the Mets don't 619 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 1: get Sodo, which I still think is unlikely, I do 620 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: think Contreras and Happ will be there with the Mets. 621 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 1: Like I think they will have a big deal with 622 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: the Cubs. They'll bring in a reliever or two. They'll 623 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,679 Speaker 1: bring another arm for sure, and Contreras will fit in 624 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 1: very well with that team. Let me tell you he's 625 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 1: he's a very intense like guy, and you know he 626 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 1: vocal back on the top step now, he's loving life. 627 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: He's you know, given high five some exchers are now 628 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: like you need personalities that fit, you know, on certain 629 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: teams too, And that's why I think the steal will 630 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: fit with the Yankees. I think they could use some intensity. 631 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: I think he's a that nice intensity about him. Stat 632 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: zero's last night, Chris Archer, he was bad. Six earned runs, 633 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 1: six walks. Well, Patrick Corbyn perhaps his swan song for 634 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: the Nationals. He did not disappoint Welsh two thirds of 635 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: an inning, six earned runs, no strikeouts, Ladies. Jel Of Harber, 636 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 1: let's give it up. 637 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 2: I think he gave up the double and the very 638 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 2: first at bat to Mookie Bets. We had the Mookie 639 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 2: Bets total base prop yesterday on Corbyn. I think it 640 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 2: it was either the first or second at bat. Corbyn 641 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 2: is magnificent, he really is. He is a piece of 642 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 2: art in baseball. Fourteen losses on the year, fourteen. I 643 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 2: don't think a pitcher has fourteen wins. Well, he loved 644 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 2: the league and losses last year, I believe, yeah. I 645 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 2: don't think one pitcher's fourteen wins. He gets fourteen losses 646 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 2: this year. 647 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: Vertlander has twelve. I think ye. It's it's stunning.

Mike Mayor is getting very close. He 657 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: is actually in third place right now. Fun enough, here 658 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 1: in the home run contest, Ethan is on vacation this week, 659 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: so we have no home run boards, so it says 660 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: Mike Mayor is in third place, but without an official board. 661 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I really want to see that. I mean, 662 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: my hope is he goes to first place on Friday 663 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 1: and then he loses it, and then Ethan comes back 664 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 1: and he makes the new boards and he's not there anymore. 665 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 2: You'd have to have quite a couple of days, because 666 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 2: first place still is two homers away from second and 667 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 2: three above Mayor right now. 668 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 1: So well, it's time for betting pros.

He's been very good lately. Zach Wheeler six 678 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: and a half.

I've got tie on 686 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 2: strikeouts four and a half over and bug me, I 687 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 2: are going to be doing a stream over on our 688 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 2: Twitch dot tv slash in this league doing some bets. 689 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 2: I've got some unique crazier ones that are beyond total 690 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 2: base and strikeouts today. That's where I would go and 691 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 2: if you guys want to check that out. But I 692 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 2: like your McKenzie one. Maybe the safest of the day, 693 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 2: Mookie and ty on. 694 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 1: Strikeouts in terms of DFS two DK, you got Zach 695 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: Wheeler at ten point two over on DraftKings, Chris McKenzie 696 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 1: at nine. Nine's a good investment. Otani's always cheap there. 697 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 1: I don't know why eight point nine. So I would 698 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 1: go with mackenzie and Otani. They've been very good lately, 699 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 1: and just save save a little bit of money if 700 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: you can. If you want, you can go appa with 701 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: Tyler Anderson in Colorado, which is never great, but I 702 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 1: think the Dodgers are gonna beat up on Youurina today 703 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: on FanDuel Zach Wheeler at ten to seven. That's the 704 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 1: way I would go. Tyler Anderson eight point eight as 705 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,239 Speaker 1: fascinating as a tournament arm tonight because he's so much 706 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: cheaper than the other guy. So that's why I would look. 707 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: I'd look to stack the Yankees and the Dodgers, and 708 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 1: I would look for a home run from Freddy Freeman 709 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 1: and Colorado Againjose, you're in at tonight. Where are you 710 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 1: going for your home run? Called? 711 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 2: I love yours and I was gonna just go with you, 712 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 2: but I'm gonna I'm gonna go back to Mookie. I 713 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 2: felt like I was close yesterday, and whenever you feel 714 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 2: like you're super close, the next day, bombs are gonna go. 715 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna go with MOOKI today. But I do 716 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 2: love yours, and I almost took Freddy Freeman. 717 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 1: And it also looks like Darren Ruff is Mike Mayer's 718 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 1: selection here, So I guess it's Darren Roff's birthday or 719 00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 1: is it Mike Maher's birthday? I don't know whose birthday 720 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 1: it is. The answer to the trivia question was Randy Johnson. 721 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: By the way, Randy Johnson was the guy. 722 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 2: I think somebody the first person who dropped a comment 723 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 2: did say, Randy, Uh, look at that is all over? 724 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: Look at that. Good job, buddy, well done. We'll be 725 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 1: back again tomorrow with more amazing baseball talk. Who knows, 726 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 1: maybe we'll get some more trades. That'd be nice. Now 727 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: that some of these guys have pitched like Castillo, I 728 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: imagine it's time to get on the horn. Yankees, look busy. 729 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,239 Speaker 1: We'll see who else is getting busy, and we'll get 730 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: busy tomorrow same time, right here, new and on Fantasy Bros. MLB. 731 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: That'll do it for us. But the story of the 732 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: game goes on for the Welsh. I'm Joey P. We'll 733 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: see you next Dome kids,
