WEBVTT - MLB: Leading Off August 30th, 2022 (Ep. 585) 0:00:16.160 --> 0:00:18.840 Leading off starts right now, right here on Fantasy Pros. 0:00:18.840 --> 0:00:19.479 I'm Chris Welch. 0:00:19.600 --> 0:00:23.000 That is Casey Bubba in the house. We got a 0:00:23.040 --> 0:00:26.000 bald head back on the show. That's what we've needed, right, 0:00:26.040 --> 0:00:28.200 That's gonna make the show all but better. 0:00:28.400 --> 0:00:31.120 It's having a good bald ahead and it's not Papa, 0:00:31.400 --> 0:00:32.560 it's Bubble. What's up brother? 0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:34.839 Now much more friend, Thanks for having me. Yeah, I 0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:38.160 got to represent for the Baldi's out there. But yeah, 0:00:38.240 --> 0:00:40.599 good times as always. Good shower with you. Another two 0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:42.160 day in the books for us. 0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:43.319 That is right. 0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:47.480 And Aaron Judge hit his fiftieth homer of the year. 0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:50.760 Babba Judge became only the seventh player in MLB history 0:00:50.800 --> 0:00:53.800 to hit fifty homers before the start of September. The 0:00:53.880 --> 0:00:56.800 last player to do so was his current teammate Jean 0:00:56.960 --> 0:01:01.480 Carlos Stanton. Aaron Judge, I saw a note this was 0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:06.160 really interesting. Saw a note on Rotal World this morning 0:01:06.800 --> 0:01:09.520 that was talking actually about shoe Heyo Tani just looking 0:01:09.560 --> 0:01:12.520 through some blurbs and whatnot. He had hit homer yesterday. 0:01:12.880 --> 0:01:15.680 Good and at the bottom of it it said show 0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:19.160 Heo Tani looking to be the favorite and now maybe 0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:21.800 this is out of touch rotal World writer, but looking 0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:26.360 the favorite to win another MVP award. And I looked 0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:28.119 at that and I was like really, And I had 0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:29.839 to go back and look and see where we were. 0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:33.959 And Judge is still minus nine hundred for the award, 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:38.880 Bubba on DraftKings Otani is plus five hundred. They're both 0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:41.840 doing great things. I've always been Timotani. I think at 0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:44.080 this point, with the slowdown and how the team is performed, 0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:46.120 we don't really need to continue to have that conversation. 0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:48.120 But I just thought that was interesting that this. 0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:51.240 Is still floating out here, that after you know him 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:54.440 being I actually have an interesting little mini trivia question 0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:56.600 for you here in a second. But as I said, 0:01:56.640 --> 0:01:59.960 only seven players, wasn't it? He was one of seven 0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:03.400 that had hit fifty homers before the month of September. 0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:06.480 That's that's wild that I just don't know that there's 0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:08.200 any way you're going to be able to take Judge 0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:09.160 off of this at this point. 0:02:09.880 --> 0:02:11.919 Yeah, I've been Tiamotani with you as well, and it's 0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:14.360 pretty crazy. But I didn't hear the interview you're speaking up, 0:02:14.360 --> 0:02:16.079 but I heard a different one and they were still 0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:18.200 saying the same thing that Altani is still to favorite, which 0:02:18.240 --> 0:02:21.600 is crazy. They can't read a betting line apparently, But 0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:25.640 we said all along, even if we've been Tinomoltanni, that 0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:28.080 you can't go wrong with either guy, and that's going 0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:30.200 to be hard with Judge getting the fifty. As you said, 0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:32.280 I'd still like to see how Tani get it because 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.919 what he does is ridiculous. But again, we could probably 0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:36.959 say this every year Atoni stays healthy, so you can't 0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:37.920 give it to him all the time. 0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:41.200 Okay, So, and this almost confused me. 0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:46.480 But of the seven players there were actually what will 0:02:46.560 --> 0:02:48.000 this number be here? 0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:49.720 I should have done this before. 0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:55.680 Ten seasons or yeah, ten seasons essentially a fifty year homers, 0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:58.560 fifty or more homers before the month of September. There's 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:02.560 a couple of duplicates in here. Can you name the players? 0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:04.280 There's gonna be a couple of layups in here, so 0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:05.240 Judges one of them. 0:03:05.120 --> 0:03:05.880 You already have one. 0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:10.919 There's nine more and there are two players that come 0:03:11.000 --> 0:03:12.880 up twice on this list. So let's see if you 0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:15.960 can crack this list of ten players really nine with 0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:18.480 the most homers before September, which are. 0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:22.000 All fifty so so for sure, so. 0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:25.240 Sums up three times by he did it a couple 0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:28.640 of times. Yeah, ninety eight, ninety nine he had fifty five, 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:32.480 and he also had fifty two two thousand and one. 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:36.240 I'm gonna go with obviously, big Mac. Big Mac's got 0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:37.680 to be on the list. Barry Bonds has to be 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:41.520 on the list. You assume Roger Merris and Mickey Mantle 0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:42.360 have been on the list. 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:50.000 So you said maguire Bonds, Mantle is not on the list. 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:56.440 You are missing You're missing two players here. One one 0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:58.040 is kind of a layup because it was in the 0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:01.240 comments before this of his teammate. 0:04:01.600 --> 0:04:05.080 Well, his teammate. I wasn't reading the comments that goes 0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:08.640 to me, but was it. I don't know. I'm just 0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:09.720 gonna I'm always start. 0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:12.280 Talking young Carlos gian. 0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:13.920 Carl Well, you said that earlier. I thought, okay, yeah, 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:15.080 James Stanton did it. 0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:17.320 One more. There's one more. 0:04:17.360 --> 0:04:18.880 I'm going to disappear from the screen for a second 0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:19.880 while you take a guess. 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:23.920 One more. Let me think one more player with fifty 0:04:24.000 --> 0:04:28.720 plus and we already said gian Carlow, I'm gonna go 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:31.360 with Frank Thomas. Let's get weird. Let's go weird. 0:04:31.400 --> 0:04:34.800 With Frank Thomas, Ooh, that's a good guess. What would 0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:36.960 you say if I told you it was a diamondback? 0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:42.760 Luiskan's always that one year he went nuts. 0:04:41.160 --> 0:04:43.159 Fifty one homers in two thousand. 0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:45.359 No real talk, real talk. Why doesn't he get busted 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:47.960 for steroids? There's no way him and Brady Anderson have 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:50.719 Brady Anderson not make the list that year he went nuts? 0:04:51.040 --> 0:04:54.039 Yeah, allegedly. I'll tell you something off there was. 0:04:54.560 --> 0:04:56.640 I'm a baseball player from a base Actually you know 0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:58.360 what here, I'm going to do this in the chat 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:04.520 real quick. Just let's get your reaction. Uh, all right, 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:09.560 that player confirmed of all players, of all players. But 0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:12.359 to tell you that's why you can't say those things 0:05:12.360 --> 0:05:15.440 out and it's definitely something that's out there. It's something 0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:18.680 that is out there. But regardless of the point, very good. 0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:20.000 I think he did a really good job. The Roger 0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:23.159 I thought Roger Roger Marris would have got me. Luis 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:25.400 Gonzalz I actually might have got as a diamonback fan. 0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:28.559 But again Sosa comes up three times on that list. 0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:32.000 Barry Bond's judge. It's really it's like hollow ground that 0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:34.359 he you know that he ends up getting in that 0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:37.680 spot and there you go, Aaron Judge fifty homers, one 0:05:37.760 --> 0:05:39.680 of only seven players to do it. 0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:41.560 Before the month of September. 0:05:41.600 --> 0:05:43.280 Did you hear what Judge real quick before? Did you 0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:44.920 hear what Judge said when someone asked him about the 0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:48.200 home run record. No, he believes Bond's record is real 0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:50.280 because he said everybody was doing them. He said, I'll 0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:52.120 try to beat the American League one and hopefully beat 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:53.680 the Major League one at some point in time. 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:54.840 I love that. I love that. 0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:57.400 Yeah, he had no problem, Like he didn't skip a beat. 0:05:57.560 --> 0:05:58.080 Is beautiful. 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.120 They're kind of in that same place too, where it's 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:02.359 like we're at the point of like, can we just 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:05.480 accept that this was an era of baseball, not like 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.120 a tarnish of base Like Baseball's had lots of different 0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:11.640 tarnished levels and football's had similar to I mean, it's 0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:16.039 all whatever. To disavow the greatest players in the history 0:06:16.040 --> 0:06:18.360 of our game is still asinine at this point, and 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:20.919 it's still obnoxious, and I'm going to hear Judge. 0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:22.359 It was good to hear Judge say it. It was 0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:24.520 good on the big stage, Like it was nice to 0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:25.320 hear Yeah. 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:27.480 As He's just crank at Homer's and gets his fiftieth 0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:28.400 and he still believes it. 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:28.960 Uh. 0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:32.039 The top prospect in baseball. Yes, Corby and Carroll made 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:33.760 his major league debut last night. 0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:36.440 I almost went. We almost got there. 0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:39.680 Actually, on the in This League Baseball podcast, Bubba Bagman 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:42.800 was getting so annoyed with me. He just sent me money. 0:06:43.040 --> 0:06:44.919 He sent me money to go, and I was like, 0:06:44.960 --> 0:06:46.159 that wasn't the problem, dude. 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:46.520 Uh. 0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:48.719 And I just couldn't make it, and I really wish 0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:52.200 I would have, because the Diamondbacks came back. Actually Diamonbacks 0:06:52.279 --> 0:06:55.640 came back from a seven to zero deficit, which they've 0:06:55.960 --> 0:06:58.240 never done in the history of the franchise, which is 0:06:58.279 --> 0:07:00.440 something I had no idea about. But they talked four 0:07:00.520 --> 0:07:03.080 hundred million times about. They were down seven to zero early. 0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:07.120 They scored six runs in the six runs in the fifth, 0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:10.400 and Corbyn Carroll played a role. He had a bad 0:07:10.600 --> 0:07:13.080 error at the beginning of the game where he misjudged 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:15.200 a slide on a Bryce Harper ball which went for 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:16.840 a double ended up scoring a run. 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:17.880 But he went one for five. 0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:21.000 He had a double, his first career hit, two runs, 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:23.360 two RBI, and he was kind of one of the 0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:27.600 lynch pins of getting the thing going. So I ask 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:31.400 you how excited and how into the performance of Corban 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:33.400 Carroll you were. The other thing I would note that 0:07:33.520 --> 0:07:37.040 was said in the broadcast is that Hazen came out 0:07:37.080 --> 0:07:39.920 before the game and said, listen, he is playing. We 0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:42.160 did not bring him here to just hang out. He 0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:44.720 is playing while he's here the rest of the way. 0:07:44.960 --> 0:07:47.400 So that is going to give everybody a nice little 0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:49.920 peace of mind moving forward with Corbyn Carroll. 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:52.560 No, this is outstanding. We've talked about him. You've talked 0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:54.360 about him that this is one of the best prospects, 0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:56.840 especially fantasy wise, in all of baseball right now. His speed, 0:07:56.920 --> 0:07:59.600 is power, his hit tool. I was like picturing you 0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:02.280 doing the South Park meme where you know the dad 0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:05.080 gets done with the computer when he because I saw 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:07.440 you posting about his opposite field double and everything, and 0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:10.200 I'm like, nice, he's the real deal. He's the real deal. 0:08:10.280 --> 0:08:12.960 So it was it was great to see. And I 0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:14.840 think he's gonna be a huge pick up this week 0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:17.520 in your weekly fab leagues and the fact they did 0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:19.320 say he's gonna play every day, it's tremendous. So yeah, 0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:22.440 it's definitely worth it. And the DBX there they're building 0:08:22.440 --> 0:08:24.040 something if they can figure out the pitching, like they 0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:26.760 got a young nucleus on offense. It's actually pretty intriguing, 0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:27.640 pretty intriguing. 0:08:27.880 --> 0:08:29.000 They're a sneaky little team. 0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:31.440 And you know, we talked about the tough questions with 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:34.400 Corbyn Carroll of like would you drop wit Maryfield and 0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:36.400 we went through it. It's like listen, yeah, it's just 0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:39.559 at this point you have that short, you know process 0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:41.360 with all of your guys, if you've got guys that 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:44.120 are performing great right now and also just know your risk. 0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:45.720 I mean, I think what you can feel good about 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.600 is seeing him out there. The double I tweeted about 0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:51.760 it was quintessential Corbyn Carroll. It was exactly the type 0:08:51.760 --> 0:08:53.520 of player that he is that he can turn on 0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:56.240 a ball because he's got incredibly great batspeed. Obviously he's 0:08:56.240 --> 0:08:58.720 still kind of slight of build, which I know even 0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:01.000 Bogman texts me, He's like, I don't think I remember 0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:02.439 him being the skinny he. 0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:06.160 Is, but the dude just rocked to the size that 0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:06.480 he is. 0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:09.160 But he could turn on a ball with great bat speed. 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:11.679 He barrels the balls up and he gets homers twy. 0:09:11.679 --> 0:09:14.440 He's got twenty four between double and triple A. But 0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:17.040 what you also see is the advanced hitter that he is, 0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:19.640 that he went down into the zone and. 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:21.200 Was able to pop that up. 0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:24.119 I mean, talk about Luis Gonzalez, very almost Luis Gonzalez 0:09:24.200 --> 0:09:25.960 ish like, you know, that was a little bit more 0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:28.200 of a blooper in the World Series, but you know, 0:09:28.240 --> 0:09:31.760 going and spreading the gap between left and left and center. 0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:35.040 Greymakass is a smart hitter and he's blazing fast. If 0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:37.600 you had actually watched the game as well, he had 0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:40.480 his very first hit was a pop as a grounder 0:09:40.720 --> 0:09:43.120 that was just popped up and the dude, I mean 0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:44.000 he almost beat it. 0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:47.719 It was its wild speed. So you know you got him. 0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:49.440 Good for you. I think it's going to pay off 0:09:49.440 --> 0:09:49.840 a little bit. 0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:51.840 He should be playing every single day and this according 0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:53.760 to team management. And it was a pretty good start 0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:56.440 with two runs and two RBI in that performance. We 0:09:56.480 --> 0:10:00.720 talked about this as well, the complete implosion. Josh Hater 0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:03.720 I had said over the weekend on a show on 0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:07.760 the Wire, which is a pictureless podcast, and I think 0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:09.760 I had said it here as well. I am a 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:11.800 Nick Martinez guy. And even though he didn't have the 0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:14.600 safe opportunity. I believe it was last week or he 0:10:14.600 --> 0:10:16.400 did like four or five days without going he'd had 0:10:16.400 --> 0:10:20.320 a few Josh Hater blew up again. Nick Martinez on 0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:23.560 Monday went one and one third of an inning against 0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:24.120 the Giants. 0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:25.439 He got his seventh save. 0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:28.120 Of the year, and he looks to be getting a 0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:29.840 little bit more confidence as Josh. 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:31.680 Hater continues to implode. 0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:34.200 So how big or how important do you think it 0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:35.840 is to pick up Nick Martinez right now? Or do 0:10:35.840 --> 0:10:39.319 you think it's still this like gonna be this turnstile situation. 0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:42.120 They keep wanting Hater to do anything he can't, But 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:44.040 could he go to Luis Garcia could have got to 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:44.920 Nick Martinez. 0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:47.680 What do you think I would definitely pick up Nick Martinez. 0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:49.800 Don't go crazy, because you wouldn't be shocked if Luis 0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:52.199 Garcia gets one. And eventually they want Hater to have 0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:54.760 the job. So if he like fires off a couple 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:57.040 of nice seventh innings and an eighth inning, you know 0:10:57.160 --> 0:10:59.160 Hater's going to get back his closer's gig. It's just 0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:01.240 the way it's going to work. I like Martinez quite 0:11:01.280 --> 0:11:03.360 a bit, though, like He's shown some really good stuff. 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:04.880 He was starting earlier in the year, but he didn't 0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:07.640 have a longevity. Multiple times through the rotation Bullpen, he's 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:09.480 been great. So this is a perfect fit for him, 0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:10.840 and the fact that you can go any in the 0:11:10.880 --> 0:11:13.200 third last nights because of that starting experience. He's not 0:11:13.240 --> 0:11:15.240 just a lock in, you know, three out guy. So 0:11:15.280 --> 0:11:17.240 that's gonna be really big for a team that overall 0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:19.520 Bullpen is struggling tremendously. So I like it a lot. 0:11:20.080 --> 0:11:21.600 Yeah, and I had picked him up in a couple 0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:23.640 spots and oh, yeah, you know, I guess he did. 0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:25.680 Yeah, he went like a six day marker. 0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:28.920 He went between the twenty first and the twenty seventh 0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:30.760 without a save is really what I was getting at, 0:11:30.840 --> 0:11:33.720 or an appearance. So he had went from Sunday to 0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:37.800 Saturday between saves, and that was kind of what I 0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:39.880 was talking about as Jack was going and saying he 0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:41.920 got to last week. He had one on Sunday the 0:11:41.960 --> 0:11:45.120 twenty first, one on Saturday, the twenty seventh, and then 0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:47.960 he got another one on Monday. So getting kind of, 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:50.400 you know, almost back to back Saturday and Monday ones 0:11:50.440 --> 0:11:53.040 is a really big positive. These are the type of guys, 0:11:53.040 --> 0:11:55.680 if you're able to hit on them correctly, are gonna 0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:57.520 be imperative for your playoff push. 0:11:57.600 --> 0:11:59.000 You know, getting these cheap saves. 0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:03.680 I've got to keeper leagues where I just couldn't break 0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:05.040 the seal on closers. 0:12:05.640 --> 0:12:06.400 It was a deeper league. 0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:09.439 It's a sixteen team league I've got because it's keeper league. Also, 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:12.760 I've got incredible hitters. I got incredible staffs, pitching staffs. 0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:15.360 I mean we're talking like I've got one where it's 0:12:15.640 --> 0:12:19.400 Dubrom and Verlander and Garrett Cole and Burns. It's stupid, 0:12:20.120 --> 0:12:23.160 but I didn't get closers. And you know, sixteen team 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:25.960 league is even tougher. So I have had to continuously 0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:29.559 scour the wire all season long, picking up the small 0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:30.240 little rides of. 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:31.240 The hunter stricklands. 0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:33.160 And you know, if Pegan was getting a save and 0:12:33.200 --> 0:12:34.920 Nick Martinez was one, I made a couple of weeks 0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:39.120 ago in anticipation or really right when this hater thing happened. 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:41.760 It looked a little slow, but these are the type 0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:42.160 of moves. 0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:45.160 Just jump on it if you can. Obviously, you know, 0:12:45.320 --> 0:12:47.520 decide for your own league. If you know you need those, 0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:50.520 maybe you need more spots for streaming pitchers or whatnot. 0:12:50.520 --> 0:12:55.160 But I have been putting out the garbage, the garbage. 0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:58.160 Closing crew, and hopefully he's one that can help on 0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:00.600 the injury front. Tony Gonslin was played on the fifteen 0:13:00.679 --> 0:13:02.959 day I L with a right forearm strain. 0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:03.720 No bueno. 0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:06.480 Roddy Telez left Monday's game with left need a right 0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:09.320 need discomfort, and it's Castianos sat out Monday's. 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:10.160 Game due to turf toe. 0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:13.160 Joey Bart was removed from yesterday's game due to concussion protocols, 0:13:13.200 --> 0:13:16.280 and TiO Oscar sat out the series opener versus the 0:13:16.320 --> 0:13:19.559 Cubs with left foot soreness. How quick this is kind 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:21.640 of a bigger question. How quick are you going to 0:13:21.720 --> 0:13:27.000 be to the trigger on injuries like this? With the playoffs? 0:13:27.760 --> 0:13:30.640 Here's an example also, I think it was Wonky said 0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:33.840 she saw a league that hater was already dropped in 0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:37.200 between hater and guys sitting. 0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:37.880 I mean, ta. 0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:39.760 Oscar maybe not so much, but you know, I don't know. 0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:41.600 Nick Castianos kind of jumps out to me he's had 0:13:41.600 --> 0:13:44.120 a hot run, but the overall numbers are kind of whatever. 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:46.480 If guys are missing extended periods of time. I'm not 0:13:46.480 --> 0:13:48.640 saying to go drop him. How quick to the trigger 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:50.520 are you going to be on? Getting rid of some 0:13:50.559 --> 0:13:53.440 of these guys for any type of streaming option for playoff. 0:13:53.160 --> 0:13:56.640 Runs pretty quick as long as it's like a like 0:13:57.200 --> 0:13:59.880 multiple week injury, like you know in Nestra, Cortez might 0:13:59.880 --> 0:14:01.560 be back next week, So it's like not the end 0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:03.800 of the world to regular il stint if you know 0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:05.240 it's gonna be like a long term deal, like you 0:14:05.280 --> 0:14:08.120 know Tyler Mally, I dropped him right away. Guys like 0:14:08.160 --> 0:14:09.800 that where you just like pull the pin and go 0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:12.120 and move on because you need those numbers. You can't 0:14:12.160 --> 0:14:13.880 just be holding guys right now. You need all options 0:14:13.880 --> 0:14:17.360 on deck. And like just to segue, justin Berlanders got 0:14:17.360 --> 0:14:19.160 put on the fifteen day aisle with an injury I've 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:20.480 never heard of in my life because I did not 0:14:20.520 --> 0:14:22.600 stay at a holiday and express last night. But it's 0:14:22.600 --> 0:14:27.880 a face fascial disruption but no muscle fiber disruption. Couldn't 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:30.720 tell you what that means. But uh yeah, so like 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:33.520 do you drop dress Bland? Probably not, at least wait 0:14:33.560 --> 0:14:36.440 a little bit longer to see what the full diagnosis is. 0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:38.920 But if it's a three to four week deal. That's 0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:40.680 gone for me, Like you just don't you just drop 0:14:40.760 --> 0:14:41.280 them and move on. 0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:46.760 Yeah, I'm looking at it right now. No muscle fiber 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:49.360 disrupt I have no idea what this like. Wel address report. 0:14:49.520 --> 0:14:51.440 This just came down like yeah, I mean it's ago 0:14:51.480 --> 0:14:52.760 like four That's why I didn't see it four or 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:54.840 five minutes ago. He was placed on the fire. Yeah, 0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:56.960 I mean you gotta be you gotta be picking and 0:14:57.040 --> 0:15:00.600 choosing and dropping some of these guys. I don't know, 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:02.320 like I said, like a cassianos might be one I 0:15:02.440 --> 0:15:05.120 consider when these guys are sitting ta Oscar, I probably wouldn't, 0:15:05.160 --> 0:15:07.240 but you know, quick on the cheer, he yes, he 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:08.000 is a good question. 0:15:08.760 --> 0:15:10.520 Nick Martinez or aj. 0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:12.400 Puck Martinez because he has the job. 0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:15.600 Yeah, exactly, Oakland disaster, right. 0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:18.240 I love Puck. I've said for like almost two years 0:15:18.280 --> 0:15:19.760 now he should be the closer, but they just won't 0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:20.680 give it to him full time. 0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:21.360 Yeah. 0:15:21.480 --> 0:15:24.120 Yeah, Well someday we might actually see it. I'd love 0:15:24.120 --> 0:15:26.120 to see him do that too, because he's not perfected 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:27.800 to be a starter. He's just never going to be 0:15:27.800 --> 0:15:32.320 a starter with this team. This day in Baseball nineteen eighteen. Ah, yes, 0:15:32.440 --> 0:15:35.560 just like it was yesterday. The New York Giants beat 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:39.440 the Brooklyn Dodgers one to oh in a game that 0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:43.480 every parent would dream of when you go to a 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:46.560 game with your kids or you know, I would say, 0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:49.240 like a wife that texts you constantly, and maybe even 0:15:49.240 --> 0:15:54.440 like real fifty seven minutes. The game took fifty seven minutes? 0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:57.120 What were they doing? How do you play? 0:15:57.520 --> 0:15:59.360 We can barely play a game of MLB the show 0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:00.480 in fifty seven minutes? 0:16:01.160 --> 0:16:01.920 What were they doing? 0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:03.600 I don't know how they did it, but it was 0:16:03.680 --> 0:16:05.760 nineteen eighteen, so stuff was crazy back then. 0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:08.640 Also, on the trivia question, I got one more for you. 0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:11.400 This is actually on the judge front. 0:16:11.400 --> 0:16:12.680 I think you guy should be able to get this. 0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:17.320 The trivia question is who are the three New York 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:21.560 Yankee players with multiple fifty home run seasons? So the 0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:25.520 question I asked you before was homers before September? So 0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:29.920 who are the three Yankee players with multiple fifty home 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:33.400 run seasons? Because if I remember this correctly, I believe 0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:37.040 Aaron Judges was this was his second of his career 0:16:37.440 --> 0:16:40.040 that he just got. Yeah, the twenty seventeen and twenty 0:16:40.160 --> 0:16:43.760 twenty two. So two other players that had fifty year 0:16:43.760 --> 0:16:45.720 hom homer more seasons. 0:16:46.080 --> 0:16:50.600 Who are that? Said players? Do you have a guess? Man? 0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:56.240 Hows this Mantle not on there? But is he on there? Okay? 0:16:56.960 --> 0:17:01.080 Multiple homer seasons now, but a big babe Ruth is 0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:01.600 the other one. 0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:03.640 Yeah. I was like, that's gotta be like the Van 0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:04.639 Veno's gotta be on that. 0:17:04.800 --> 0:17:08.560 Yeah, Gokart said, garrek it judge, So check this out. 0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:11.080 It was Mantle in fifty six and sixty one, Dodge 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:12.280 in seventeen and twenty two. 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:14.880 And this is gonna. I saw Bogmans in the chat. 0:17:14.920 --> 0:17:16.880 Make him go away so he doesn't hear this, Babe 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:20.240 Ruth in twenty twenty one, twenty seven, and twenty eight 0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:22.800 of the nineteens, by the way, for the kids at home, 0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:26.200 four seasons of fifty or more homers there, so lots 0:17:26.200 --> 0:17:27.040 of fifty homer talk. 0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:28.800 All right, let's go over to the stat heroes. 0:17:29.160 --> 0:17:31.960
