Speaker 1: I'll tell you this one one thing, Parlay. PAP's going
Speaker 1: to be taking the over in the doubles. I don't
Speaker 1: care what the number is, because he's going to hit
Speaker 1: eighty freaking doubles this year probably.
Speaker 2: All Right, here we go. We got big man Jonathan
Speaker 2: Paplebon with us, and it's been a busy time over
Speaker 2: the last twelve hours, and Pap, we got a shorter
Speaker 2: segment now, but we love you and we need the
Speaker 2: scoop on this signing. So your reaction when you saw
Speaker 2: Bragman going there, do you think this is a one
Speaker 2: and done and he'll opt out? Should he play second
Speaker 2: or third?
Speaker 1: Go?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 1: First off, I don't apologize. I had to talk to
Speaker 1: the principal because my son was on the phone checking
Speaker 1: out the Alex Bregman deal in class, so I had
Speaker 1: to be talking to the principal. So I'm late. I'll
Speaker 1: pay my fines number two. To me, this is this
Speaker 1: is a This is a sign that I don't care
Speaker 1: what he's done in the past. I don't care how
Speaker 1: many stats he puts up. This is a sign where
Speaker 1: you signed a true leader and a true leader in
Speaker 1: that club palace and you have instant leadership. You know,
Speaker 1: I love Devers and and I love Trevor Story and Cossas,
Speaker 1: but you know, it takes a certain special somebody to
Speaker 1: be a leader on the team and the man up
Speaker 1: to the media every day in Boston, and they just
Speaker 1: really don't have that guy right now. So to me,
Speaker 1: it's an absolute awesome sign. And number and number three
Speaker 1: on this deal. This was a foe headed monster deal.
Speaker 1: I mean this took Alex Redman, this took Alex Cora,
Speaker 1: and also this took Breslo and the main man, John
Speaker 1: Henry to uh put his balls on the line and
Speaker 1: make this deal done. So to me, I give credit
Speaker 1: to all of them coming together and figuring this out.
Speaker 1: Yeah there's opt outs, but I honestly if they if
Speaker 1: they go and win, he's not gonna opt out. So
Speaker 1: I think it's a clever, clever deal that put together
Speaker 1: by all four of them.
Speaker 3: Looking at this lineup, excuse me, they have a really
Speaker 3: stacked lineup. In my opinion, I'd have some from starting
Speaker 3: from Jaron Durant all the way down one. I think
Speaker 3: this is Tristan Costa this year. He's got to figure
Speaker 3: it out. I said that earlier. This is this could
Speaker 3: be a make or break. I mean, maybe I'm I'm
Speaker 3: looking too much into it. But does this this line
Speaker 3: up right here and their staff, pitching staff, are they
Speaker 3: gonna make waves when the Yankees coming to town? Is
Speaker 3: this a new error for these Red Sox team to
Speaker 3: start making some noise in the east.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, cut to John Henry. He's tired of
Speaker 1: losing to the Yankees. And I think that you know,
Speaker 1: he goes through waves where he spends money, and I
Speaker 1: think Craig Breslow came in at a perfect time where
Speaker 1: John Henry's wanting to spend money but flavor phrase. Look, man,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you this thing now, don't look. He
Speaker 1: may not stay at second base all year long. I mean,
Speaker 1: Alex core is known to manipulate lineups and and put
Speaker 1: his guys in and give guys day's rest when they
Speaker 1: need him, and and so I don't I don't necessarily
Speaker 1: look at him possibly playing second base all year long,
Speaker 1: especially especially if the Christian Campbell kid comes up and
Speaker 1: sesys the world on fire. So, like I said earlier,
Speaker 1: I think I view him as a straight leadership role
Speaker 1: and cos Is definitely has to start stepping it up.
Speaker 1: You know, he'll probably be all over that Netflix series.
Speaker 1: You know, he's the guy in the clubhouse that you
Speaker 1: know answers to media. But he definitely has to stay healthy.
Speaker 1: Is Trevor Story has to stay healthy. And another thing
Speaker 1: on this starting lineup, like you said, phrase, Look, Brian
Speaker 1: Beyo's got to step up this year. He's got to
Speaker 1: start stepping up to throw strike one because just like
Speaker 1: AJ was talking about earlier with Nick Pavetta, Beo's got
Speaker 1: to do the same thing. He's got to go out
Speaker 1: there and get strike one to pitch ahead in the
Speaker 1: counts too, because he's ten times more effective than when
Speaker 1: he is behind the count.
Speaker 4: So in everybody, Pap, you were even you were probably
Speaker 4: worse when you were heading the count because then you
Speaker 4: had to throw that split Did Germaine die head over
Speaker 4: the fence?
Speaker 5: But that's cool? Uh?
Speaker 6: Do we do?
Speaker 5: We do? We ask you this question?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 5: I know it's Scott clarified.
Speaker 4: It's only three years ninety technically with the deferred money,
Speaker 4: but I still look at as three point twenty. I
Speaker 4: don't care what Scott says because he's getting one hundred
Speaker 4: and twenty million so for a forty million dollars a
Speaker 4: year player. Basically, I know it's not real money, so
Speaker 4: Scott shut up. But is Alex Pregman that guy? And
Speaker 4: I mean Alex Pregman's stats, I mean, you know, are
Speaker 4: his stats. He's a great third baseman. He might be
Speaker 4: moving positions. But is this a contract they paid because
Speaker 4: of his clubhouse presidence, his leadership value and also with
Speaker 4: all the moving parts that they have to make, will
Speaker 4: the Red Sox look back and if he opts out
Speaker 4: after the first year with the Red Sox look back
Speaker 4: and say it was worth it.
Speaker 1: That's a great question, a Jay. You know, I think
Speaker 1: that number one, this deal doesn't happen unless Alex Korra
Speaker 1: already had the relationship that he had with him previously,
Speaker 1: so he could go to John Henry and he could
Speaker 1: go to Craig Breslo and say, hey, look, this guy
Speaker 1: will fit perfectly in our clubhouse. This guy will be
Speaker 1: our one of our leaders, which we do desperately need
Speaker 1: right now. And number two, I think, you know, if
Speaker 1: he goes there in the stature there and they win,
Speaker 1: that changes everything. Now, if he comes here and Trevor
Speaker 1: Story gets hurt again, we've got to switch positions. Every
Speaker 1: day and mix a match like they had to do
Speaker 1: last year. Then he thinks twice about it, I think.
Speaker 1: But to me, there's certain ballparks that you love to
Speaker 1: hit in and you love to pitch in. And uh,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this one one thing that Parlay Pap,
Speaker 1: Parlay PAP's going to be taking the over in the doubles.
Speaker 1: I don't care what the number is come in the
Speaker 1: spring training, because he's gonna hit eighty freaking doubles this year.
Speaker 6: Probably he knows how to hit in that park, that's
Speaker 6: for sure, even though he had the same ops last
Speaker 6: year as Yoshida, who you were trying to get rid of.
Speaker 6: But you also you also said not too long ago,
Speaker 6: Christian Campbell, and you mentioned it.
Speaker 5: A little bit.
Speaker 6: Does this move deter the Red Sox from making a
Speaker 6: a you know, crazy move by putting him in the
Speaker 6: opening day roster like you said, or do they still
Speaker 6: try to push it and then it creates all that habit?
Speaker 1: Well, Kratz, I think what it does is it gives
Speaker 1: the Red Sox the ability to not press these guys
Speaker 1: up and not push these guys up when maybe they
Speaker 1: might not be ready. They may be ready, but you
Speaker 1: really don't know yet. It gives Marcelo may Or, Roman
Speaker 1: Anthony and Christian Campbell, the Big three so called, that
Speaker 1: it gives them a chance to mature a little bit
Speaker 1: and get better in the minor leagues and they don't
Speaker 1: have to necessarily. Now somebody gets hurt, that changes everything.
Speaker 1: Trevor Story goes down in the first week again this year,
Speaker 1: then that changes everything. So you gotta press guys up.
Speaker 1: But I think it gives them a set lineup to
Speaker 1: start off the season with and going into the season,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of expectations with this ball club, and
Speaker 1: to me, it's gonna be fun because it's gonna be
Speaker 1: and on my side of things, it's it's a whole
Speaker 1: lot more fun to announce games and do games when
Speaker 1: you're watching big league players every night, not minor league
Speaker 1: players that are coming up in film positions. And that's
Speaker 1: what the Red Sox, that's what we've been watching with
Speaker 1: the Red Sox the last few years. So all that's
Speaker 1: gonna change. So we're gonna be We're gonna be watching
Speaker 1: some exciting baseball with the Red Sox this year, that's
Speaker 1: for sure.
Speaker 6: Okay, tell us Parlay, Pat, where are they gonna finish
Speaker 6: where the Socks finishing.
Speaker 1: I gotta finish it behind the Yankees, I do. I
Speaker 1: think in the AL East. You know, this division is
Speaker 1: is the division where the Yankees have seemed to own it.
Speaker 1: But to me, that doesn't matter. You know, I think
Speaker 1: they're gonna get in as a wild card. I just
Speaker 1: think the pitching is just not there. I think the
Speaker 1: Yankees have better pitching as of right now. Now, could
Speaker 1: that change if if you know, as lu Marloney calls him,
Speaker 1: the pig, if Garrett Crochetes comes out and wins fifteen
Speaker 1: to twenty games, that may change. But that's a lot.
Speaker 1: That's a big ass for a young kid like that
Speaker 1: to come in the American League East and right away
Speaker 1: punch out fifteen to twenty wins and give us one
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty two hundred innings. That's that's a big
Speaker 1: ass to me. So if that doesn't happen, I have
Speaker 1: the Yankees above us. But you know, with the wildcard,
Speaker 1: that doesn't matter.
Speaker 4: It does matter, It doesn't matter because wildcard teams seem
Speaker 4: to do better than the division winners. PAP, So keep up,
Speaker 4: keep up here. I know that was the first year
Speaker 4: though where we haven't had anybody cry about having too
Speaker 4: much time off, just saying just saying, so if you
Speaker 4: want to try to win the wildcard not the division.
Speaker 5: Okay, does this agree? Does this move mean? Though?
Speaker 4: And we talked about this before you came on, and
Speaker 4: I saw your tweet where you said, you know, yo,
Speaker 4: sheet out Campbell at second base? Do you think Christian
Speaker 4: Campbell will really start the season on the big league roster?
Speaker 4: Because I don't think he will. I think they're gonna
Speaker 4: stick Devers, stick with Devers to start, move Bregman a
Speaker 4: second to start and then see how it plays out,
Speaker 4: because I don't think one they want to start the
Speaker 4: clock on Campbell, and two I don't think they want
Speaker 4: to put that pressure on moving Devers. And then every
Speaker 4: day Christian Campbell comes in and they are like, man,
Speaker 4: you made Raffie Devers move out of the starting lineup.
Speaker 4: You have to do something. I just think the Red
Speaker 4: Sox are gonna play it slow with him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think they are now. AJ and AG.
Speaker 1: I had said that before the Alex Bregman signing. I
Speaker 1: mean like thinking that you know, the Campbell kid was
Speaker 1: gonna start at second When I came on, previously on
Speaker 1: the ft. But now that you got Bregman, I think
Speaker 1: that does change a little bit. It gives you a
Speaker 1: more set lineup and you don't have to necessarily press
Speaker 1: these young kids and start their clocks. When you call
Speaker 1: these kids up, you get a bona fide big leaguer
Speaker 1: and you know it. You're not feeling a void because
Speaker 1: you have to. But to me, I think, out of
Speaker 1: the three kids, this Christian Campbell kid is something else, man.
Speaker 1: And I've had just a little bit of time to
Speaker 1: be able to watch him. But man, I'm I'm I'm
Speaker 1: super impressed with this kid. He's super mature and so
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. You know, like I said earlier,
Speaker 1: Alex Corr is known for this. This is what he's
Speaker 1: He plays chess out there, so he's known to mix
Speaker 1: a match and Breggs knows that. So whether or not
Speaker 1: Breggs is gonna play a little bit of second base,
Speaker 1: and when Devers needs a day off, he'll play third
Speaker 1: base and vice versa. Who knows.
Speaker 4: Man, I thought Krats was a Homer, but you have
Speaker 4: taken the cake for homer. Drinking the Red Sox kool aid, boy,
Speaker 4: let me tell you but before I let you go,
Speaker 4: I know why you were late. And I know you
Speaker 4: said you use the excuse of the dog. Ain't my
Speaker 4: kids homework?
Speaker 5: I get it.
Speaker 4: But I know why you were really late because I
Speaker 4: was in Stark, Vegas on Tuesday night, you know, showed
Speaker 4: and I watched Florida wook Mississippi State's ass of basketball. Okay,
Speaker 4: but do you want to make some money if you
Speaker 4: could build a really nice hotel starkfull with like, you know,
Speaker 4: some sort of restaurant e Bari type pat. I know
Speaker 4: your boy, ohs Waltz got is Prime forty four. But
Speaker 4: if we could build like a nice hotel, we can
Speaker 4: make a lot of money. Because I'm not lying, there
Speaker 4: ain't nowhere to stay in that place.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you know, a j I usually stay at
Speaker 1: the Motel six. You know, I'm not as high class
Speaker 1: a hof of like you you know, yeah hotels whistles.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Motel six is high class and you know it.
Speaker 4: You know, listen, I'm not going to tell you where
Speaker 4: I stayed, but it wasn't a Motel six.
Speaker 5: But I had something happened to me.
Speaker 4: They called me and before I got to Stargull on
Speaker 4: Monday night and said sorry, sir, we know you have
Speaker 4: a reservation, but we're taking it away. We're giving it
Speaker 4: to someone else. And I said, listen, that ain't happening.
Speaker 4: I'm showing up at that hotel. I'm either sleeping in
Speaker 4: the lobby, I'm sleeping behind the desk. But I've had
Speaker 4: a reservation for months. I'm staying at the hotel. And
Speaker 4: then they oh, they called me back two minutes later
Speaker 4: and they're like, oh, you're right. We bumped someone else
Speaker 4: that didn't have status like you, you know your your
Speaker 4: members status, so boomby.
Speaker 5: But I was like, man, I'm sleeping on the floor
Speaker 5: if I have to.
Speaker 1: Hey, look it start Vegas. There's not enough. There's not
Speaker 1: enough hotels. I will admit it. But you gotta have
Speaker 1: star power. AJ. At least you got star power kid.
Speaker 1: At least you got somewhere.
Speaker 5: I dropped paple Bond. Nobody knew who you were. I
Speaker 5: was like, but I know Jonathan.
Speaker 4: Pable Bond, and you don't never have On Wednesday and
Speaker 4: it got canceled or I would have stayed. They were
Speaker 4: having a home run derby at the dude, and I
Speaker 4: was like, I'm in My daughter who plays volleyball, there
Speaker 4: was like, Dad, you got to do this and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 4: I'm in And then they canceled it because they said
Speaker 4: it was raining although it wasn't raining.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we got the big Wiener dog race there too.
Speaker 1: I don't know you've heard about that.
Speaker 2: That's perfect for Aj. He's already done a sausage race
Speaker 2: Wieners right up his alley.
Speaker 5: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa too far?
Speaker 1: Got that before we get crossed off the channel list.
Speaker 2: Good to see you, dude, Thanks for stopping by. Kangaroo
Speaker 2: Court is to hook AJ up with a hotel room
Speaker 2: and no cancelations?
Speaker 1: All right, all right, sounds great. I gotta go talk
Speaker 1: to the principal. I'll see you guys later.
Speaker 2: Bet MGM futures. We've got Anthony Bolpi stolen bases at
Speaker 2: twenty five and a half.
Speaker 1: Who we got over over under? Who we got it
Speaker 1: over over under?
Speaker 2: Todd Fraser over under for Anthony Volpi? Who you watch
Speaker 2: a lot of?
Speaker 3: Over by a lot. I'm gonna say a lot by
Speaker 3: thirty five forty range.
Speaker 5: I like this.
Speaker 3: I would take this bet right now.
Speaker 2: Okay, twenty eight last year in a full season, he
Speaker 2: played the whole year Kratz is putting his thumb up,
Speaker 2: so that means over over, And he's played full season
Speaker 2: both of his first two season two.
Speaker 5: You guys all, he's out there all the time. Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yes, Whether he hits two, twelve or to eighty, he's
Speaker 6: out there all the time. He's gonna run, He's always
Speaker 6: looking to run.
Speaker 2: Why is bet MGM doing this to us?
Speaker 5: Then?
Speaker 1: AJ, I don't know they know a lot.
Speaker 4: So that's that's what scares you a little bit about
Speaker 4: this whole thing, is like because it seems like an
Speaker 4: easy money, free money.
Speaker 2: You think it's that much of a lock?
Speaker 1: Is this a five star lock? Crats?
Speaker 6: No, I can't take any I can't take any just
Speaker 6: because of the eye word. Anytime somebody can somebody can
Speaker 6: miss time. But this dude's he's a pup. He's a baby.
Speaker 6: But now he's learning to hit. He's gonna get on
Speaker 6: base a little bit more. I feel like, I feel
Speaker 6: like there's improvement there. And he's gonna learn who to
Speaker 6: steal off of and when to steal.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna.
Speaker 5: Go under Wow.
Speaker 4: Okay, I think he hits thirty. I think he hits thirty.
Speaker 4: Say with your chest, say.
Speaker 5: With your chest.
Speaker 2: I think he gets under. I'm gonna obviously factor been
Speaker 2: healthy there. On base percentage is sub three hundred last
Speaker 2: year runs into a little trouble. Yes, the whole reason
Speaker 2: why the stolen base numbers are lower because stolen base
Speaker 2: guys get hurt more because they're running a second And
Speaker 2: I know it's not as injury prone as it used
Speaker 2: to be, but it's a thing, and that's got to
Speaker 2: be what they're factoring in. So I'm doing it if
Speaker 2: I'm not touching this one, but I'm going under. Download
