WEBVTT - There's Been SO  MANY MLB Trades Already

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:03.840
<v Speaker 1>Hello and welcome Awaken Jake, myself, Jake's story, Ellie, David

0:00:03.880 --> 0:00:08.680
<v Speaker 1>Mendelssohn aka BBD producing his buns away. And it is

0:00:08.800 --> 0:00:12.240
<v Speaker 1>trade season. It's the season of the trades, and I

0:00:12.240 --> 0:00:16.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna walk through what we have currently where we're at.

0:00:16.880 --> 0:00:18.840
<v Speaker 1>Maybe we'll get a live one. We had a couple

0:00:18.920 --> 0:00:23.599
<v Speaker 1>during Talk and Baseball today, quick recap, get some thoughts

0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:26.400
<v Speaker 1>on each one, and then a little bit of what

0:00:26.400 --> 0:00:30.600
<v Speaker 1>we're hoping to see get done in the next twenty

0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:34.880
<v Speaker 1>four hours. Speaking of twenty four hours, also a little

0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:39.720
<v Speaker 1>Warehouse promotion. We're going live Thursday, August first and noon.

0:00:40.640 --> 0:00:44.880
<v Speaker 1>We're playing a blitzball game to one hundred, so that

0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:48.839
<v Speaker 1>as long as it takes to get done is what

0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:54.320
<v Speaker 1>we've signed up for. Myself, Jimmy and Joe's McFly versus

0:00:54.320 --> 0:00:58.080
<v Speaker 1>the we got ice boys, Jackson and Shelfy being called

0:00:58.080 --> 0:01:02.640
<v Speaker 1>the longest footsball game ever. So every time I talked

0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:05.840
<v Speaker 1>about this for so long, and now the realization is

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:10.200
<v Speaker 1>really sinking in our five of blitz bal might be

0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:14.479
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be a scene a couple old bodies out there,

0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 1>So come check that out on our Warehouse Games YouTube channel.

0:01:18.959 --> 0:01:21.840
<v Speaker 1>Let's talk trades, and let's even go cron pot on it,

0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:27.480
<v Speaker 1>because I think that's important a man. So this is

0:01:27.520 --> 0:01:32.240
<v Speaker 1>where we move the needle here on Waking Jake. The

0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:41.440
<v Speaker 1>AJ Puck trade two my Arizona Diamondbacks. Okay, let's see

0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:43.399
<v Speaker 1>a little bias from the start, because you know I'm

0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:49.040
<v Speaker 1>a snake sky. Let me see where we're at by

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:52.880
<v Speaker 1>the end of this episode, and especially by the end

0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:56.240
<v Speaker 1>of the trade deadline, which we'll be recapping I think Wednesday,

0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:58.880
<v Speaker 1>maybe late Tuesday. See if we want to get folkish

0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:06.120
<v Speaker 1>in the mix, get jolly involved. No way, Maybe I

0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:08.440
<v Speaker 1>think there's a chance we look back at the AJ

0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:12.359
<v Speaker 1>Puck trade. Oh God, this is such baseball loser stuff,

0:02:12.400 --> 0:02:16.480
<v Speaker 1>and say it's a good trade. AJ Puck started this

0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:21.000
<v Speaker 1>year as a starting pitcher. This guy was an uber,

0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:26.280
<v Speaker 1>like a highly rated prospect, a's six seven lefty gross

0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:28.200
<v Speaker 1>arm angle. Like if there was a guy you thought

0:02:28.240 --> 0:02:30.799
<v Speaker 1>would be the next kind of Chris Sale, it's kind

0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:35.919
<v Speaker 1>of AJ Puck. And he has had set success success

0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:41.360
<v Speaker 1>as a reliever before. So that first month April, they

0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:44.920
<v Speaker 1>kind of roll him out there as a starter, bail

0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:49.360
<v Speaker 1>on it, and since then and now he's with the

0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:52.680
<v Speaker 1>Diamondbacks too, and he's got two clean innings there, which

0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:57.400
<v Speaker 1>we like. Thirty games, thirty two point one innings pitched,

0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:07.640
<v Speaker 1>thirty seven strikeouts, one one fifty opponent's batting average. I

0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:10.720
<v Speaker 1>think as people are fighting over Tanner Scott and we'll

0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:16.960
<v Speaker 1>see what other relievers become available. Aj Puck kind of

0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:20.079
<v Speaker 1>could have went under the radar as a wipeout, nasty

0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:24.239
<v Speaker 1>lefty more than a strikeout peranning one nine to five YRA.

0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:27.000
<v Speaker 1>Since he's gotten kicked to the bullpen that I think

0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:28.760
<v Speaker 1>we could look back at that and say that's one

0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:32.440
<v Speaker 1>of the better value picks of the deadline. Let's see

0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 1>if I believe in that. In a couple minutes, so

0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:39.160
<v Speaker 1>that happens, Ghost Snakes go. Remember how strong their bullpen

0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:42.480
<v Speaker 1>was last playoffs. Things are starting to happen in Arizona.

0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:49.360
<v Speaker 1>I think fifty five and fifty one, it's coming the

0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:53.200
<v Speaker 1>next one. And while we're talking trade deadline, I would

0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:56.960
<v Speaker 1>just like to say currently positioned pretty well. Bring you

0:03:57.000 --> 0:04:01.080
<v Speaker 1>back to expectations are everything in life you go to expect.

0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:04.280
<v Speaker 1>I said this before I went to see Tropic Thunder.

0:04:04.320 --> 0:04:05.800
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was gonna be the funniest movie I've

0:04:05.800 --> 0:04:10.440
<v Speaker 1>ever seen our DJ Doctor Doom. I'm hip on social

0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:13.640
<v Speaker 1>media that reveals actually cool. Even if you're not a

0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Marvel nerd God. You want to see a bunch of

0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:20.000
<v Speaker 1>people excited about something, go check out the Robert Downey

0:04:20.040 --> 0:04:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Junior reveal of him being Doctor Doom. Anyways, we expected

0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 1>this deadline to stink. All these teams were like in

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:30.719
<v Speaker 1>the mix, We're like, is anyone gonna deal? We're trying

0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:32.840
<v Speaker 1>to think of these eyeball deals. We're having a deadline.

0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:35.880
<v Speaker 1>We still need a couple more big fish to drop.

0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:38.200
<v Speaker 1>And this was never crazy. This was never gonna be

0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:40.840
<v Speaker 1>an A plus deadline. This was never gonna be Sodo

0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:46.080
<v Speaker 1>or Surezer Turner Machado. But yeah, I think we wondered

0:04:46.120 --> 0:04:47.920
<v Speaker 1>if we would even get to this point. So thank

0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:51.719
<v Speaker 1>you Tampa Bay Rays as they traded Randy Rose Arena

0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:57.080
<v Speaker 1>to your Seattle Mariners. Seattle Mariners needed some hitting. Randy

0:04:57.160 --> 0:05:00.479
<v Speaker 1>apparently likes wearing those color uniforms, so that's huge for

0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:05.599
<v Speaker 1>him and the Randy Rose Arena story. Similar to aj Puck,

0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:10.479
<v Speaker 1>for the past couple months, he has been bawling out,

0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:13.800
<v Speaker 1>let's get some numbies for you, because that's what the

0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:20.039
<v Speaker 1>people like to start this year. Uh. He had a

0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:25.200
<v Speaker 1>four to sixty one OPS in April, March awful, a

0:05:25.279 --> 0:05:29.120
<v Speaker 1>six to ninety nine OPS in May. Unfortunately close to

0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:33.160
<v Speaker 1>league average this year, although the stats are ugly, uh

0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:36.880
<v Speaker 1>the last two months June two ninety one, four eight

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:40.200
<v Speaker 1>ninety three ops, July two eighty six, three seventy eight

0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:45.440
<v Speaker 1>nine ten ops. I don't expect those numbers to stay.

0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:46.320
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

0:05:46.480 --> 0:05:48.719
<v Speaker 1>I expect Randy Roseoranna to be good. I think he

0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:52.240
<v Speaker 1>got off to a bad start this season. I don't know, luck, injury,

0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:55.240
<v Speaker 1>whatever it may be. Uh, but he turned it around

0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:58.080
<v Speaker 1>on the year. He's having technically a plus season. And

0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:01.120
<v Speaker 1>for the past two months he has been all star

0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:04.920
<v Speaker 1>level and Seattle has needed hitting. And I've been really

0:06:04.960 --> 0:06:06.960
<v Speaker 1>tough on the Mariners and Randy's come in and he's

0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:12.159
<v Speaker 1>had a couple of good games for them already. So excited,

0:06:12.839 --> 0:06:17.080
<v Speaker 1>excited for Mariners, excited for Randy. I hope Seattle does more.

0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:19.200
<v Speaker 1>They've got a couple more trades with a little bit

0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:22.039
<v Speaker 1>of funk to them. But Randy Rose Arena for the

0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 1>price they paid. And I'm if you're looking to talk

0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:30.000
<v Speaker 1>prospect capital, I'm sorry, I'm in it with some of

0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:33.360
<v Speaker 1>the big names. We were laughing on Talking Baseball today

0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:36.880
<v Speaker 1>that maybe we need some more prospect ranking updates because

0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:40.880
<v Speaker 1>all these prospects are like, you know, Jeff Passon's calling

0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:43.279
<v Speaker 1>people out on the internet. Oh, you think he's a

0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:45.960
<v Speaker 1>nobody because he's the eighth rank pitcher. Well, you don't

0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:48.880
<v Speaker 1>know ball, And it's like, well, maybe I know ball,

0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:52.880
<v Speaker 1>but maybe I haven't been tracking Phillies double A baseball

0:06:52.920 --> 0:06:53.320
<v Speaker 1>this year.

0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:57.320
<v Speaker 2>The go to websites do a preseason and postseason list.

0:06:57.800 --> 0:06:59.919
<v Speaker 2>It feels like we could do like a monthly update

0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:02.360
<v Speaker 2>just to how about.

0:07:02.160 --> 0:07:06.919
<v Speaker 1>An All Star breakup date? That seems fair. Sorry to

0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:09.960
<v Speaker 1>prospect nerds, sorry for putting a little more work on

0:07:10.000 --> 0:07:12.600
<v Speaker 1>your table, but I think you're It's one of those

0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:15.040
<v Speaker 1>it's like when your parents are teachers tell you that

0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:18.280
<v Speaker 1>you're leaving more work for yourself. Yeah, like by I

0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:19.840
<v Speaker 1>don't want to say half asking it. I think you

0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:21.480
<v Speaker 1>guys are doing a great job. I just think we

0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:22.520
<v Speaker 1>need to do the job again.

0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:26.400
<v Speaker 2>Just just it's just the ordering them on the website.

0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:30.200
<v Speaker 1>No what it is. It's like, it's it's like, oh,

0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:32.920
<v Speaker 1>if you mow the lawn and you let the grass

0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:35.400
<v Speaker 1>grow out really long, and there's a bunch of stuff

0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:37.800
<v Speaker 1>on the outside that you gotta trim and take care of,

0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:39.920
<v Speaker 1>and it's like, well, if you actually just did it

0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:43.840
<v Speaker 1>one more time, it's the same amount of work, just

0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:44.840
<v Speaker 1>spread out.

0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:49.880
<v Speaker 2>Like and the Yankees instance, the trade Augustin Ramirez a

0:07:49.880 --> 0:07:52.400
<v Speaker 2>big part of their trade. He was ranked twentieth. Right,

0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:55.600
<v Speaker 2>he's had a big breakout year, like people like people

0:07:55.640 --> 0:07:58.400
<v Speaker 2>in baseball obviously knew like he was a prospect. He's

0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:02.400
<v Speaker 2>probably the most valuable realistic he traded prospect. Yeah, people

0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:05.200
<v Speaker 2>immediately places like number four in the Marlin system now,

0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:09.240
<v Speaker 2>and I think they fixed it reading about him. They

0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:11.160
<v Speaker 2>were saying that he was going to become like a

0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:13.520
<v Speaker 2>top one hundred prospect because he was a twenty two

0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:16.239
<v Speaker 2>year old catcher at Triple A with twenty homers.

0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:18.720
<v Speaker 1>So the scouting thing's funny. And the other thing that

0:08:18.760 --> 0:08:22.200
<v Speaker 1>I always point to an example of how not perfect

0:08:22.240 --> 0:08:26.160
<v Speaker 1>this whole process is, you know who became a top

0:08:26.200 --> 0:08:30.960
<v Speaker 1>ten prospect after not being one? Randy Rose Arena, because

0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:35.119
<v Speaker 1>he played really well in the playoffs and he instantly

0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:38.320
<v Speaker 1>went from like not prospect to top ten in the game.

0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:42.199
<v Speaker 1>So we're still figuring all this out. It's part of

0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:44.720
<v Speaker 1>the beauty and part of the weirdness of this sport

0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:50.040
<v Speaker 1>we enjoy. So yeah, Aiden Smith, Brody Hopkins, and player

0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:52.640
<v Speaker 1>to be named later. I don't know, but I do

0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:55.319
<v Speaker 1>know Randy Rose Arena, and I know Seattle needed it,

0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:58.880
<v Speaker 1>and there is upside there. And I'll tell you what

0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:01.200
<v Speaker 1>if Seattle can get to the postseason, know who the

0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:03.600
<v Speaker 1>other team does not want to see at the plate,

0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:07.719
<v Speaker 1>Randy Rose Arena. So let's see if they get a

0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:10.840
<v Speaker 1>little more done. James passed into the Socks for a

0:09:10.880 --> 0:09:18.960
<v Speaker 1>seventeen year old nice sick. This one turned some heads

0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:23.040
<v Speaker 1>in the baseball world. Austin Hayes, former Gold Glover. I

0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:28.240
<v Speaker 1>believe double checking and a solid righty contact bat almost

0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:37.160
<v Speaker 1>ten career war take that, Trevor Ploof unnecessary, unnecessary, one

0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:40.120
<v Speaker 1>time All start twenty twenty three. So another All Star traded.

0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:45.480
<v Speaker 1>He gets traded from Baltimore to Philadelphia. Been rumored for

0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:49.640
<v Speaker 1>outfielders for Sir Anthony Domingez. So this is what I've

0:09:49.640 --> 0:09:52.880
<v Speaker 1>been daydreaming. I've told you guys on here. As this

0:09:53.000 --> 0:09:55.600
<v Speaker 1>deadline was coming up and looking funky, I was trying

0:09:55.600 --> 0:09:59.079
<v Speaker 1>to find team strengths with team strengths that lines up.

0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:01.280
<v Speaker 1>But it's it's one of those things that it's I

0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:04.199
<v Speaker 1>think it's impossible to predict. Unless it's truly like an

0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:08.440
<v Speaker 1>extra starting pitcher, then a team would trade them, and hey,

0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:15.679
<v Speaker 1>Seattle can still be won over. Austin Hayes goes over

0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:19.320
<v Speaker 1>to Philadelphia a year and a half of Austin Hayes

0:10:19.320 --> 0:10:21.760
<v Speaker 1>if they want it. He kind of gets paid for.

0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:25.680
<v Speaker 1>Sir Anthony Dominguez, who you've probably seen in some pitching

0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:28.160
<v Speaker 1>some big innings for the Phillies in the past years,

0:10:28.240 --> 0:10:31.920
<v Speaker 1>along with Christin Pasche the outfielder that I think him

0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:38.199
<v Speaker 1>and Johann Rojas became slightly redundant for the Phillies. I

0:10:38.240 --> 0:10:40.040
<v Speaker 1>don't know. The other part that's fun here is like

0:10:41.480 --> 0:10:43.520
<v Speaker 1>kind of got some butts on the line, right, Sir

0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Anthony Dimingez kicks in a gear with Baltimore and becomes

0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:51.760
<v Speaker 1>their seven to eighth, ninth dominant guy. I think Philly

0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:54.640
<v Speaker 1>fans are gonna be like, wait, we really traded Sir Anthony,

0:10:54.880 --> 0:10:58.920
<v Speaker 1>Like that guy's been wipeout for us Baltimore. I guess

0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:02.559
<v Speaker 1>a little less off their back, Which that's a weird phrase.

0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:06.719
<v Speaker 1>What is that is that, like, does that go back

0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:07.679
<v Speaker 1>to bad times?

0:11:08.880 --> 0:11:11.040
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't evoke kind imagery.

0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:18.000
<v Speaker 1>Skin off my back, skin off my teeth, the idiom

0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:19.960
<v Speaker 1>no skin off my back means something is not a

0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:26.880
<v Speaker 1>big deal and the speaker doesn't care too much. Uh oh,

0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:29.280
<v Speaker 1>it looks like there's a reddit that says the origin

0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:32.920
<v Speaker 1>is pretty gruesome. So I'm not gonna click that, and

0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:34.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna say no skin off my teeth.

0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:37.800
<v Speaker 2>The word whip is part of the first sentence there,

0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:39.880
<v Speaker 2>which I was starting to come out.

0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:42.280
<v Speaker 1>Maybe we need to get better. Maybe that's that's one

0:11:42.320 --> 0:11:44.440
<v Speaker 1>of those phrases that you say as a grandpa and

0:11:44.480 --> 0:11:46.480
<v Speaker 1>your grandkids are like, oh my god, how did he

0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:48.199
<v Speaker 1>say that? And You're like, I don't know, we all

0:11:48.280 --> 0:11:53.760
<v Speaker 1>just said that. Okay, so I'm canceled. Austin Hayes goes

0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:58.200
<v Speaker 1>over to the Phillies. Uh. The Orioles have outfield depth

0:11:58.240 --> 0:12:02.679
<v Speaker 1>in droves. It's been a tough year for Hayes league

0:12:02.720 --> 0:12:06.719
<v Speaker 1>average ops that you know, he's normally a tick up

0:12:06.720 --> 0:12:10.040
<v Speaker 1>from there. But I just think it's in the world

0:12:10.120 --> 0:12:12.840
<v Speaker 1>of the future of the Baltimore Orioles. I don't know

0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:15.040
<v Speaker 1>how much of a future. Rousin Hayes has been there,

0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:19.920
<v Speaker 1>and they potentially get a high leverage reliever for themselves.

0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:24.439
<v Speaker 1>So I think people tend to like this more for Baltimore, however,

0:12:25.640 --> 0:12:27.960
<v Speaker 1>and we don't know the outfield trade market, and I

0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:31.600
<v Speaker 1>will break our cron pod, which you know I hate

0:12:31.640 --> 0:12:36.640
<v Speaker 1>to do. This company is built on cron pods. The

0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:41.160
<v Speaker 1>Phillies got and they trade for Carlos Estevez, who Trev

0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:45.120
<v Speaker 1>said maybe the most impactful trade of this deadline so far,

0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:50.160
<v Speaker 1>like a contender getting a player that will affect it,

0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:54.280
<v Speaker 1>which okay, kind of rude jazz Chisholm. We'll get to that.

0:12:56.320 --> 0:13:01.240
<v Speaker 1>They trade for Carlos Estevez, who I think there's a

0:13:01.360 --> 0:13:05.520
<v Speaker 1>chance he is looked at as the the number one

0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:10.439
<v Speaker 1>reliever that comes out of this. His whip is zero

0:13:10.520 --> 0:13:14.480
<v Speaker 1>point seventy three five right now. He's got a two

0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:17.400
<v Speaker 1>three eight ERA this year, twenty saves. He's been closing

0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:21.320
<v Speaker 1>the last two years. Came up as a Rockies guy

0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:25.760
<v Speaker 1>from sixteen to twenty two. How many o the Rockies

0:13:25.800 --> 0:13:31.960
<v Speaker 1>pitchers do you know that like survive. He's gone over

0:13:32.000 --> 0:13:34.480
<v Speaker 1>to the Halos and he's been a productive player for them,

0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:37.080
<v Speaker 1>And man, I think it's funny the Phillies have crazy

0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:40.640
<v Speaker 1>bullpen depth, but in a way, the ninth inning is

0:13:40.679 --> 0:13:44.240
<v Speaker 1>open for whoever wants it. Jeff Hoffmin's been incredible, but

0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:47.240
<v Speaker 1>he kind of came from nowhere. Alvarado's had his ups

0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:52.520
<v Speaker 1>and downs, so Philly and these were the prospects that

0:13:52.600 --> 0:13:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Passon was yelling about. So maybe they gave something

0:13:55.640 --> 0:13:59.480
<v Speaker 1>up here, but it seems like they upgraded their bullpen piece.

0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:03.160
<v Speaker 1>They brought in the outfielder they're hoping for, and we'll see.

0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:06.200
<v Speaker 1>I know trev was daydreaming of a marsh Hayes platoon,

0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:09.280
<v Speaker 1>and they could still bring in another outfielder. We'll see.

0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:13.480
<v Speaker 1>It's the Phillies, it's the land of Riches. So I

0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:15.800
<v Speaker 1>think they could be done and be okay. I think

0:14:15.840 --> 0:14:20.320
<v Speaker 1>they could also get in the mix. The team of

0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:25.040
<v Speaker 1>the trade deadline so far your Tampa Bay Rays, and

0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:31.920
<v Speaker 1>they unloaded Zach Efflin zephln here to the Baltimore Ool

0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:37.640
<v Speaker 1>so in Division trading and some good notes here on

0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:41.920
<v Speaker 1>the ESPN which has a nice little updated trade deadline

0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:47.080
<v Speaker 1>season going. Baltimore had three starting pitchers undergo elbow surgery

0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:51.760
<v Speaker 1>in June. Bradish means in Wells, so they are looking

0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:56.160
<v Speaker 1>for some innings and potentially more. They have Burns and

0:14:56.240 --> 0:15:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Gray Rod Dean Kramer. The thing that was surprising, and

0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:03.040
<v Speaker 1>I guess put this as a little notch in your

0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:10.600
<v Speaker 1>future Baltimore belts. Who's got future Baltimore belts. Zach Eflin

0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:14.040
<v Speaker 1>is making eighteen mill next year, So Baltimore signed up

0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:18.720
<v Speaker 1>for that, which, whether you're talking about future signings or

0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:23.600
<v Speaker 1>re signings or whatever, it may be, Baltimore willing to

0:15:23.600 --> 0:15:26.040
<v Speaker 1>pay that for zach Eflin, who has been the model

0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:29.720
<v Speaker 1>of consistency. The Baseball Reference was pretty shocking how consistent

0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:32.480
<v Speaker 1>it's been. That for the Oriols, it's a little bit

0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:35.960
<v Speaker 1>of you know, in baseball, we say you never know

0:15:36.000 --> 0:15:38.960
<v Speaker 1>what you're gonna get, like a box of chocolates. Some

0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:41.840
<v Speaker 1>might say you kind of know what you're getting with

0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:44.160
<v Speaker 1>zach Eflin at this point, and hey, maybe he does

0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:48.000
<v Speaker 1>tick up in Baltimore. That massive left field always speaks

0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:54.280
<v Speaker 1>to me. But you're getting productive and slightly plus innings

0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:57.440
<v Speaker 1>from him. So they didn't have to give up any

0:15:57.440 --> 0:16:01.240
<v Speaker 1>of their top prospects, and for the raise, it's kind

0:16:01.240 --> 0:16:02.720
<v Speaker 1>of a win win. They get to bring in a

0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:05.000
<v Speaker 1>handful of prospects. They got a ton of pitchers on

0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:08.440
<v Speaker 1>their way back, and they're not on the book for

0:16:08.560 --> 0:16:11.800
<v Speaker 1>Zach Eflin for next year, which they backloaded that contract.

0:16:12.760 --> 0:16:18.760
<v Speaker 1>Those tricky, tricky Rays very clever. We'll get back to

0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:21.080
<v Speaker 1>them in a second because we have to talk Seattle Mariners.

0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Where I'm going to Uh, I'm gonna double down on

0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:29.160
<v Speaker 1>the trade because I think they made Mariners fans go

0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:34.840
<v Speaker 1>eh because they trade away Ryan Stannik two the New

0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:41.880
<v Speaker 1>York Metropolitans. Okay Stannik. The the numbers aren't too flashy

0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:46.200
<v Speaker 1>this year four nine to five Era got hit in

0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:48.520
<v Speaker 1>his first appearance with the Mets. Tough was four to

0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:52.360
<v Speaker 1>three eight the other day. More strikeouts than innings pitched.

0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:54.760
<v Speaker 1>He's made a career as a major league reliever of

0:16:54.800 --> 0:16:59.000
<v Speaker 1>three to six Era. He had one dominant season in Houston. Also,

0:16:59.080 --> 0:17:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Yankee fans probably remember he was he was an opener

0:17:03.000 --> 0:17:11.760
<v Speaker 1>guy in eighteen and nineteen. He started fifty six games

0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:13.360
<v Speaker 1>as the opener.

0:17:14.600 --> 0:17:15.439
<v Speaker 2>So that's weird.

0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:20.600
<v Speaker 1>That's just weird. That's gonna be a bad jolly olive video. Unsubscribed.

0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:23.440
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of hostility in the office right now.

0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:27.080
<v Speaker 1>Mets are good. It's the trade eche ligne. Trev's here today.

0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:31.720
<v Speaker 1>You get a proven MLB bullpen arm, which I get

0:17:31.760 --> 0:17:36.040
<v Speaker 1>that there's volatility to that position. Ryan Stanek got rocked

0:17:36.040 --> 0:17:38.120
<v Speaker 1>in his first appearance. He could get rocked in his

0:17:38.200 --> 0:17:41.720
<v Speaker 1>next five and the Mets might have to dfaan. He

0:17:41.760 --> 0:17:45.080
<v Speaker 1>could also go on from this point to have a

0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:48.080
<v Speaker 1>ten appearance scoreless streak. Life of a reliever, but he's

0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:50.919
<v Speaker 1>an MLB guy. Mets needed arms. They just had a

0:17:50.920 --> 0:17:54.640
<v Speaker 1>couple guys go down, they get it done, and I mean,

0:17:54.680 --> 0:18:01.120
<v Speaker 1>that's you're not paying a premium price. Tagners and I

0:18:01.160 --> 0:18:03.600
<v Speaker 1>had had to head tilt myself because if you're gonna

0:18:03.640 --> 0:18:07.600
<v Speaker 1>add Jimmy Garcia, you might as well keep Ryan Staniic. No,

0:18:07.920 --> 0:18:09.920
<v Speaker 1>although Seattle'll be the first to tell you we're a

0:18:09.960 --> 0:18:16.520
<v Speaker 1>bullpen factory. Nice they give up Jonathan class a eighty

0:18:16.520 --> 0:18:22.080
<v Speaker 1>grade speed for Reemy Garcia. He's good. There's times where

0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:26.000
<v Speaker 1>he set up for Toronto. I feel like there's times

0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:27.719
<v Speaker 1>I was excited to see him in a game as

0:18:27.720 --> 0:18:29.639
<v Speaker 1>a reliever. I feel like there's times I was like,

0:18:29.800 --> 0:18:31.199
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to see him in the game as

0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:34.400
<v Speaker 1>a reliever. I was gonna be tough on Seattle because

0:18:34.400 --> 0:18:36.399
<v Speaker 1>it's like, are we really doing the trade away reliever

0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:42.840
<v Speaker 1>things again? But I just mentioned it. With Philly, they

0:18:42.880 --> 0:18:47.960
<v Speaker 1>went from Sir Anthony to Carlos Estevez, which, like I said,

0:18:48.000 --> 0:18:51.919
<v Speaker 1>with relievers, Sir Anthony could outpitch Estevez, Like it's just

0:18:51.960 --> 0:18:55.240
<v Speaker 1>how it works sometimes. But I like the move for

0:18:55.240 --> 0:18:57.879
<v Speaker 1>Philly that I'm gonna I'm gonna lean. I like the

0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:00.879
<v Speaker 1>move for Seattle. I think Garcia is a better relief

0:19:00.920 --> 0:19:04.120
<v Speaker 1>pitcher and he's already had two clean sheets for them,

0:19:04.480 --> 0:19:09.520
<v Speaker 1>so welcome home people. Are people do have that one

0:19:09.560 --> 0:19:12.360
<v Speaker 1>noted as the prospect could come back to hurt them.

0:19:13.440 --> 0:19:15.800
<v Speaker 1>They say, like I said, eighty speed. If you know

0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:18.240
<v Speaker 1>the MLB scouting world, that's as high as it gets,

0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:20.760
<v Speaker 1>and they don't give those grades to people that if

0:19:20.760 --> 0:19:23.080
<v Speaker 1>he can figure out any other aspect of the game,

0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:30.919
<v Speaker 1>could be a useful guy and catcher. Jacob sharp I

0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:37.199
<v Speaker 1>mentioned Stannic for Ryland Thomas. Here's a big one. The

0:19:37.240 --> 0:19:41.200
<v Speaker 1>New York Yankees have traded for Jazz Chisholm. H you

0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:45.119
<v Speaker 1>heard us mention this before. Augustine Ramirez headlines it with

0:19:45.200 --> 0:19:48.960
<v Speaker 1>short King Jared Serna and my guy honest A Ramirez.

0:19:53.040 --> 0:19:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Jazz Chisholm to the Yankees, a guy that has probably

0:19:57.880 --> 0:20:06.520
<v Speaker 1>sometimes drawn f ire from fans. Fair ire. I don't

0:20:06.520 --> 0:20:09.960
<v Speaker 1>even know if iron works like that. What's the definition

0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:10.600
<v Speaker 1>of ire.

0:20:11.520 --> 0:20:14.240
<v Speaker 2>And I or would be just like anger anger?

0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:18.760
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So yeah, that kind of makes sense to draw

0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:22.040
<v Speaker 1>ire from people. Some people probably dislike jazz for the

0:20:22.080 --> 0:20:25.200
<v Speaker 1>wrong reason. Some people probably dislike jazz for okay reasons.

0:20:25.560 --> 0:20:31.840
<v Speaker 1>Some people love jazz that I think where jazz Chisholm landed.

0:20:32.359 --> 0:20:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Uh he had to quote this year calling out Mickey Rowe,

0:20:34.640 --> 0:20:38.440
<v Speaker 1>who's one of the most beloved guys in the game. Uh,

0:20:38.520 --> 0:20:42.000
<v Speaker 1>what it is on paper is a guy not making

0:20:42.040 --> 0:20:44.920
<v Speaker 1>a ton of money that's under team controls the er

0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:46.080
<v Speaker 1>two and a half years.

0:20:46.600 --> 0:20:48.439
<v Speaker 2>Uh yeah, two years after this.

0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Year, twenty six years old, has power and speed. He's

0:20:53.680 --> 0:20:56.520
<v Speaker 1>had some injuries in his past two that should be noted.

0:20:57.359 --> 0:21:00.280
<v Speaker 2>If we're if we're getting into the ARB situations because

0:21:00.320 --> 0:21:02.440
<v Speaker 2>of what he's done so far, Like, he's not making

0:21:02.440 --> 0:21:04.680
<v Speaker 2>a crazy number, right, he doesn't project to be a

0:21:04.680 --> 0:21:06.919
<v Speaker 2>guy who like is breaking any ARB records.

0:21:07.119 --> 0:21:10.120
<v Speaker 1>You know, twenty two All Star that was a limited year.

0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:13.760
<v Speaker 1>He only played sixty games. He's been around a league

0:21:13.800 --> 0:21:16.560
<v Speaker 1>average hitter for his career. When you factor that in

0:21:16.960 --> 0:21:21.160
<v Speaker 1>with his speed, in versatility can be a very plus

0:21:21.240 --> 0:21:27.280
<v Speaker 1>ballplayer to a ball club interested to see how the

0:21:27.359 --> 0:21:30.800
<v Speaker 1>Yankees handle that they needed athleticism, they could use the

0:21:30.920 --> 0:21:34.960
<v Speaker 1>versatility slash major league bat that Jazz might be walking

0:21:35.000 --> 0:21:37.440
<v Speaker 1>into a real nice situation where he also doesn't feel

0:21:37.480 --> 0:21:40.040
<v Speaker 1>like he has to carry the Marlins offense because the

0:21:40.119 --> 0:21:42.760
<v Speaker 1>Yankees have two guys carrying it at a historic level.

0:21:42.840 --> 0:21:47.639
<v Speaker 1>Never mind if other guys start to contribute thirteen steals

0:21:48.480 --> 0:21:51.240
<v Speaker 1>or excuse me, thirteen homers twenty three steals now on

0:21:51.280 --> 0:21:54.480
<v Speaker 1>the year for the Yankees, it's going to be interesting

0:21:54.480 --> 0:21:58.919
<v Speaker 1>to see the next pieces. This bodes well, Like people

0:21:58.960 --> 0:22:02.360
<v Speaker 1>were throwing out trade ideas or you know, we were

0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:05.280
<v Speaker 1>talking about him on the train and Jimmy was running

0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:08.919
<v Speaker 1>through things that the Yankees have money coming off the

0:22:08.960 --> 0:22:12.800
<v Speaker 1>books this year. But if you're signing Juan Soto's currently

0:22:12.840 --> 0:22:15.280
<v Speaker 1>making thirty one million dollars and let's say you signed

0:22:15.280 --> 0:22:19.000
<v Speaker 1>one soda to forty million a year, you know, with

0:22:19.040 --> 0:22:21.280
<v Speaker 1>the number that could be coming off between a glabor

0:22:22.440 --> 0:22:26.439
<v Speaker 1>potentially Rizzo and there's one or two other guys in

0:22:26.520 --> 0:22:30.679
<v Speaker 1>there like you have other positions that need to be

0:22:30.760 --> 0:22:35.880
<v Speaker 1>filled that every dollar goes away from filling another position.

0:22:36.760 --> 0:22:39.080
<v Speaker 1>And go look at how much free agents go per year.

0:22:39.160 --> 0:22:42.000
<v Speaker 1>That Jazz Chisholm, who's making two and a half mil

0:22:42.080 --> 0:22:45.920
<v Speaker 1>this year, I think he's projected for four next year.

0:22:46.359 --> 0:22:50.040
<v Speaker 1>So weather jazz Chisms. Weather jazz Chism's next year, second basement.

0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Maybe something clicks at third, Maybe it's the outfield, maybe

0:22:53.119 --> 0:22:55.920
<v Speaker 1>it's a super utility. Tell me how many guys as

0:22:55.960 --> 0:22:59.840
<v Speaker 1>talented as jazz Chism go for that four million dollar mark.

0:23:00.280 --> 0:23:05.440
<v Speaker 1>It's not so this was I think Yankees fans got

0:23:05.440 --> 0:23:07.760
<v Speaker 1>a little excited that if you're in the weeds on this,

0:23:07.760 --> 0:23:10.760
<v Speaker 1>this is a plus move for re signing Juan Soto.

0:23:11.119 --> 0:23:12.960
<v Speaker 1>I think this is a plus move for this season.

0:23:13.440 --> 0:23:16.040
<v Speaker 1>I think this is the right environment for this guy.

0:23:16.480 --> 0:23:19.200
<v Speaker 1>We will see could be singing a very different tone

0:23:19.200 --> 0:23:22.159
<v Speaker 1>in a little bit. And it's crazy that it'll be

0:23:22.240 --> 0:23:26.720
<v Speaker 1>dictated mostly from the results of sixty games, which we've

0:23:26.760 --> 0:23:30.200
<v Speaker 1>seen players be amazing for sixty games. We've seen players

0:23:30.240 --> 0:23:32.680
<v Speaker 1>be bad for sixty games. Go check out Randy rose

0:23:32.680 --> 0:23:39.439
<v Speaker 1>Arenas for sixty games this year, really bad. But it

0:23:39.520 --> 0:23:41.800
<v Speaker 1>sets up the Yankees for flexibility on their next move.

0:23:41.840 --> 0:23:45.920
<v Speaker 1>It sets up the Yankees for flexibility and their upcoming

0:23:45.960 --> 0:23:50.399
<v Speaker 1>off seasons. And hey, he's a guy that does have

0:23:50.520 --> 0:23:53.199
<v Speaker 1>potential to tap into a little more. I don't know

0:23:53.200 --> 0:23:55.600
<v Speaker 1>if that sounds like Yankees BS to you, but whether

0:23:55.760 --> 0:23:59.320
<v Speaker 1>just ballpark factor, whether it's having other guys in your lineup,

0:24:00.119 --> 0:24:04.040
<v Speaker 1>whether you believe in like off the field leadership and

0:24:04.240 --> 0:24:06.840
<v Speaker 1>that the Yankees have a captain and they've got you know,

0:24:06.840 --> 0:24:10.680
<v Speaker 1>if you don't respect Judge and Sodo, you're in the

0:24:10.720 --> 0:24:11.399
<v Speaker 1>wrong sport.

0:24:12.240 --> 0:24:14.960
<v Speaker 2>And Jazz is comes to entering mid mid to late

0:24:15.000 --> 0:24:17.440
<v Speaker 2>twenties and being healthier, right.

0:24:17.359 --> 0:24:21.200
<v Speaker 1>He, like Jazz has said all the right things so far.

0:24:21.280 --> 0:24:24.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean, maybe this is the opportunity both sides are

0:24:24.119 --> 0:24:26.800
<v Speaker 1>looking for. Maybe Jazz is a superstar in his own

0:24:26.880 --> 0:24:33.280
<v Speaker 1>right full on baseball wise, maybe not. But you know,

0:24:33.560 --> 0:24:37.800
<v Speaker 1>like Nestor won over the crowd in New York big time.

0:24:38.680 --> 0:24:40.480
<v Speaker 1>And although he's a name kind of on the block

0:24:40.560 --> 0:24:44.200
<v Speaker 1>right now, let's see where Jazz lands with its team.

0:24:44.400 --> 0:24:49.040
<v Speaker 1>Yankee fans are excited. They do want more always, that's

0:24:49.080 --> 0:24:52.760
<v Speaker 1>what being a Yankee fan is about. August and Ramirez

0:24:52.800 --> 0:24:55.119
<v Speaker 1>go be great for the Marlin same with you, Jared Serna,

0:24:55.480 --> 0:24:58.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm okay, would have oka.

0:24:58.920 --> 0:25:00.680
<v Speaker 2>Needed to be added to the four party man after

0:25:00.720 --> 0:25:04.160
<v Speaker 2>this season anyway, So that's also some math. We didn't

0:25:04.200 --> 0:25:06.960
<v Speaker 2>get to mention in the immediate.

0:25:06.600 --> 0:25:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Reaction and waken Jake. People already knew Jared Serna because

0:25:11.160 --> 0:25:13.600
<v Speaker 1>foolish Bailey threw him in a fake Tanner Scott trade.

0:25:14.000 --> 0:25:16.639
<v Speaker 2>Marlin's you just got him last week from us.

0:25:16.760 --> 0:25:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so funny how the world spins sometimes, Danny said,

0:25:22.119 --> 0:25:23.320
<v Speaker 1>passing Yes.

0:25:23.520 --> 0:25:26.720
<v Speaker 2>The Boston Red Sox and Pittsburgh Pirates are finalizing a

0:25:26.800 --> 0:25:30.840
<v Speaker 2>deal that will send Quinn Priester to Boston, okay for

0:25:31.119 --> 0:25:35.800
<v Speaker 2>infield prospect Nick York. Interesting that a twenty first round pick.

0:25:35.640 --> 0:25:39.520
<v Speaker 1>That's prospect for prospect. Quinn Priester's debuted, but I think

0:25:39.560 --> 0:25:43.400
<v Speaker 1>he's a former first round pitcher, so that's uh, that's

0:25:43.440 --> 0:25:46.359
<v Speaker 1>an interesting one. Aren't the people running Pitts.

0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:49.120
<v Speaker 2>He was twenty Pirates twenty nineteen first round pick.

0:25:49.359 --> 0:25:52.840
<v Speaker 1>The people running Pittsburgh used to be Boston, right, isn't

0:25:52.840 --> 0:25:55.000
<v Speaker 1>it like Cherrington, Like didn't he go to time?

0:25:55.359 --> 0:25:58.520
<v Speaker 2>I forget when exactly everybody took over whatever, But I

0:25:58.560 --> 0:26:00.720
<v Speaker 2>mean they have good relationships.

0:26:00.080 --> 0:26:03.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't. I'm not fully trying to depict overlap,

0:26:03.960 --> 0:26:06.320
<v Speaker 1>especially on this trade with recent ballplayers, but that's an

0:26:06.359 --> 0:26:09.600
<v Speaker 1>interesting one young hitter for a young pitcher. Last time

0:26:09.600 --> 0:26:11.400
<v Speaker 1>we saw a trade like that, what is it? Zach

0:26:11.480 --> 0:26:15.720
<v Speaker 1>Gallon for Jazz Chisholm. We've seen a couple more, but

0:26:16.440 --> 0:26:19.000
<v Speaker 1>you don't see a lot of teams put themselves out

0:26:19.040 --> 0:26:25.200
<v Speaker 1>there like that. A Rosearina for Massy Liberatory comment below.

0:26:25.440 --> 0:26:27.880
<v Speaker 1>What other trades you like? Danny Jansen's a red sock

0:26:27.960 --> 0:26:33.080
<v Speaker 1>great crushes the Yankees, So I don't like that. We

0:26:33.160 --> 0:26:36.760
<v Speaker 1>did ask the as Jesse Winker to the Mets. I

0:26:36.920 --> 0:26:39.920
<v Speaker 1>love it. I gave Jesse Winker my award today half

0:26:39.960 --> 0:26:42.600
<v Speaker 1>because we forgot to talk about the trade. Jesse Winker

0:26:42.600 --> 0:26:45.879
<v Speaker 1>has been bashing this year. Jesse Winker has sneaky bashed

0:26:45.880 --> 0:26:48.719
<v Speaker 1>his whole career except the past year and a half,

0:26:49.440 --> 0:26:53.359
<v Speaker 1>which that's how baseball works. But not this year, not

0:26:53.480 --> 0:26:58.840
<v Speaker 1>this season. One ops plus Mets. It's gonna be interesting

0:26:58.880 --> 0:27:01.800
<v Speaker 1>to see how they handle the rest of the deadline.

0:27:03.280 --> 0:27:05.800
<v Speaker 1>If they stay with this, it means Bader probably goes

0:27:05.840 --> 0:27:09.680
<v Speaker 1>to the bench slash platoon vers lefties in defensive sub

0:27:10.240 --> 0:27:13.679
<v Speaker 1>while Jesse Winker. Man, these Mets are already banging that.

0:27:13.760 --> 0:27:16.280
<v Speaker 1>If they add another twig to the lineup, they're a

0:27:16.320 --> 0:27:20.280
<v Speaker 1>scary team to play, especially right now. And they gave

0:27:20.359 --> 0:27:24.600
<v Speaker 1>up Tyler Stewart, so I don't know what you do

0:27:24.680 --> 0:27:28.159
<v Speaker 1>with that. He's six foot nine, he was a reliever

0:27:28.280 --> 0:27:34.040
<v Speaker 1>in college that's now starting, So there's that. I think

0:27:34.080 --> 0:27:36.240
<v Speaker 1>there's gonna be teams that are very jealous they didn't

0:27:36.240 --> 0:27:38.160
<v Speaker 1>trade for Jesse Winker. I'm not even saying he's gonna

0:27:38.160 --> 0:27:39.680
<v Speaker 1>have a big second half because right now he might

0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:41.800
<v Speaker 1>be fighting for playing time on the Mets. There was

0:27:41.840 --> 0:27:44.399
<v Speaker 1>a rumor the Mets might still flip Chady Martinez and

0:27:44.440 --> 0:27:48.800
<v Speaker 1>Winker comes their DH interesting twenty four hours coming from

0:27:48.800 --> 0:27:56.960
<v Speaker 1>Metropolitans fans okay, our race get back in the timeline

0:27:57.040 --> 0:28:02.399
<v Speaker 1>as they trade reliever Jason Adam for three prospects from

0:28:02.480 --> 0:28:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Tampa or excuse me, from San Diego. And I think

0:28:05.480 --> 0:28:10.840
<v Speaker 1>two of them are kind of prospected prospects, including a

0:28:10.880 --> 0:28:13.680
<v Speaker 1>first round pick arm which I read Preller has traded

0:28:13.760 --> 0:28:17.240
<v Speaker 1>eight of his last ten first round picks. So I

0:28:17.240 --> 0:28:20.640
<v Speaker 1>don't know a little bit of Seattle Seahawks old approach.

0:28:21.520 --> 0:28:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Let's let's bring in guys we know who are gonna

0:28:23.560 --> 0:28:29.840
<v Speaker 1>be good. And one of those guys also Meryl Merril

0:28:29.960 --> 0:28:34.520
<v Speaker 1>Jackson Jackson, Merril Jackson, Merrill, I was getting weird in

0:28:34.560 --> 0:28:41.640
<v Speaker 1>my head. Jason Adams Gross may not like the cat,

0:28:41.720 --> 0:28:46.680
<v Speaker 1>but he he is a three pitch reliever. It's tough

0:28:46.680 --> 0:28:48.840
<v Speaker 1>to guess along with him when he's pitching because he

0:28:48.920 --> 0:28:52.360
<v Speaker 1>has the three wipeout pitches. He could give you multi

0:28:52.400 --> 0:28:56.920
<v Speaker 1>inning if you needed it. Pairing him with Suarez on

0:28:56.960 --> 0:29:01.000
<v Speaker 1>the back end can be a nice little, nice little

0:29:01.080 --> 0:29:04.120
<v Speaker 1>duo for San Diego. And I want to be surprised

0:29:04.160 --> 0:29:07.040
<v Speaker 1>if they tried to add some more bullpen for ideally

0:29:07.120 --> 0:29:13.000
<v Speaker 1>cheaper than Adam. But yeah, this this was a big

0:29:13.280 --> 0:29:16.720
<v Speaker 1>haul for reliever. And now they get Adam I believe

0:29:16.760 --> 0:29:17.240
<v Speaker 1>for a year and.

0:29:17.240 --> 0:29:20.520
<v Speaker 2>A half, might might even be longer.

0:29:20.560 --> 0:29:22.680
<v Speaker 1>And he's, uh, yeah, it might be two and a half.

0:29:22.720 --> 0:29:25.600
<v Speaker 1>So that's that's where the price tag kicks in. Uh

0:29:25.600 --> 0:29:28.800
<v Speaker 1>and man, what uh I mean? Raise funny business?

0:29:29.080 --> 0:29:29.280
<v Speaker 2>Uh?

0:29:29.320 --> 0:29:33.800
<v Speaker 1>And Adam credits them. He was granted his release by Chicago.

0:29:34.000 --> 0:29:38.560
<v Speaker 1>He hadn't done much before that. Oh, I guess he

0:29:38.600 --> 0:29:42.800
<v Speaker 1>had a nice twenty nineteen with Toronto twenty three games. Sure,

0:29:44.200 --> 0:29:46.240
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, he's been wiped out the past couple of years.

0:29:47.200 --> 0:29:50.720
<v Speaker 1>Eat him again. He's he adapted raised bullpen lifestyle of

0:29:50.840 --> 0:29:54.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of wherever whenever we're meant to be together, I'll

0:29:54.920 --> 0:29:57.760
<v Speaker 1>be there and you'll be near. Shakira.

0:29:59.600 --> 0:30:04.080
<v Speaker 2>Kenenthal has tweeted a three team trade in which the

0:30:04.120 --> 0:30:08.240
<v Speaker 2>Cardinals would acquire Eric Fetti, the Dodgers would acquire Tommy Edmund,

0:30:08.240 --> 0:30:10.680
<v Speaker 2>and White Sox would acquire prospects. Is close.

0:30:12.800 --> 0:30:15.240
<v Speaker 1>I have to think if Kenny's putting that out there

0:30:15.480 --> 0:30:18.840
<v Speaker 1>that it's close. That's my announce sounds like he's reporting

0:30:18.920 --> 0:30:22.080
<v Speaker 1>guys going to multiple teams. So Fetti to the Cardinals

0:30:22.080 --> 0:30:23.000
<v Speaker 1>and that's obvious.

0:30:23.080 --> 0:30:26.840
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Fetti to Cardinals, Edmund, Tommy Edmund.

0:30:27.760 --> 0:30:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Interesting, Dodgers will make use of that. Yeah, I can

0:30:31.040 --> 0:30:33.880
<v Speaker 1>play a little shortstop too, if I remember correctly. That's

0:30:33.920 --> 0:30:38.080
<v Speaker 1>what they need, shortstop, centerfield, middle endfield. Okay, Fetty to

0:30:38.120 --> 0:30:41.920
<v Speaker 1>Saint Louis, Yeah, everywhere, that's obvious. Okay, let's see some

0:30:41.960 --> 0:30:45.520
<v Speaker 1>of the prospects involved. Good for the Padres. I think

0:30:45.520 --> 0:30:47.720
<v Speaker 1>this is the number one trade people have circled as

0:30:47.840 --> 0:30:50.560
<v Speaker 1>this one could hurt in a couple of years as

0:30:50.640 --> 0:30:54.160
<v Speaker 1>relievers tend to run out and like Dylan Lescoe, I

0:30:54.200 --> 0:30:57.040
<v Speaker 1>think was a first round pitcher last year. Homer Bush junior.

0:30:57.440 --> 0:31:02.200
<v Speaker 1>You might know that game name from Homer Bush, which

0:31:02.240 --> 0:31:07.760
<v Speaker 1>then led us to probably the most significant trade IMO

0:31:08.000 --> 0:31:11.760
<v Speaker 1>so far, Estoc Parades, twenty five year old all star

0:31:11.960 --> 0:31:15.360
<v Speaker 1>third baseman for your Tampa Bay Rays gets traded to

0:31:15.400 --> 0:31:22.080
<v Speaker 1>the Chicago Cubs for chrispher Morell on two pitching prospects.

0:31:22.080 --> 0:31:24.440
<v Speaker 1>Interested to see the Rays devil magic here, love me

0:31:24.520 --> 0:31:28.440
<v Speaker 1>some Chris Morrell. I think before the season, if you

0:31:28.520 --> 0:31:31.720
<v Speaker 1>said Chris Morrell or Esock Parades, I think people would

0:31:31.720 --> 0:31:35.840
<v Speaker 1>have leaned Parretes. And that's why people like this trade.

0:31:35.880 --> 0:31:38.760
<v Speaker 1>For the Cubs, Pretas is locked in as plays a

0:31:38.840 --> 0:31:42.680
<v Speaker 1>good enough MLB third baseman, mashes the guy you don't

0:31:42.680 --> 0:31:45.640
<v Speaker 1>want to see at the dish Man. Speaking from experience

0:31:45.640 --> 0:31:49.080
<v Speaker 1>as a Yankee fan, chrispher Morel feels kind of streaky

0:31:49.080 --> 0:31:51.400
<v Speaker 1>as a hitter. He's been having a tough year this year.

0:31:51.840 --> 0:31:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't have a position locked in yet. He's one of

0:31:54.760 --> 0:31:58.240
<v Speaker 1>those versatile but almost in a bad way. Currently.

0:31:58.440 --> 0:32:02.040
<v Speaker 2>He's like athletic, you feel good trying him anywhere, but

0:32:02.280 --> 0:32:06.480
<v Speaker 2>he hasn't looked great at any specific position.

0:32:06.760 --> 0:32:09.440
<v Speaker 1>You like to think something's gonna click. I don't know.

0:32:09.960 --> 0:32:12.400
<v Speaker 1>They're also is money and years factor here. There's another

0:32:12.480 --> 0:32:16.360
<v Speaker 1>year in Morell while parades is starting to get kind

0:32:16.360 --> 0:32:18.520
<v Speaker 1>of paid for them. While the Rays get their hand

0:32:18.520 --> 0:32:22.160
<v Speaker 1>on two more prospects, two more pitching prospects that we

0:32:22.360 --> 0:32:29.480
<v Speaker 1>kind of know how that organization handles them. Cubbies, Let's

0:32:29.480 --> 0:32:31.480
<v Speaker 1>see if they can find some juice this year. You

0:32:31.600 --> 0:32:34.280
<v Speaker 1>change something up and you bring in more of a

0:32:34.320 --> 0:32:38.520
<v Speaker 1>bona fide player. I don't know. I've kind of been

0:32:38.600 --> 0:32:41.720
<v Speaker 1>out on the Cubbies this year in their front office.

0:32:41.800 --> 0:32:43.600
<v Speaker 1>This isn't a move just for this year. And we'll

0:32:43.640 --> 0:32:46.600
<v Speaker 1>see if the Cubs sell off any parts because they

0:32:46.640 --> 0:32:49.800
<v Speaker 1>get parades for a little bit. But I don't know.

0:32:50.000 --> 0:32:53.800
<v Speaker 1>I've got a little front office just gut here. I

0:32:54.000 --> 0:32:58.360
<v Speaker 1>really like Chris morel. It's people are saying he has

0:32:58.840 --> 0:33:02.120
<v Speaker 1>more natural pop than parties. That if the Rays can

0:33:02.120 --> 0:33:05.240
<v Speaker 1>tap into whatever that is, which we've seen them do

0:33:05.320 --> 0:33:07.440
<v Speaker 1>with a couple of ballplayers. Hell, we saw them do

0:33:07.640 --> 0:33:12.760
<v Speaker 1>with Esach parties to get him trade value, a lot

0:33:12.800 --> 0:33:15.520
<v Speaker 1>of trade value, and that parade's good.

0:33:15.720 --> 0:33:18.640
<v Speaker 2>Good for him and the Rays. They figured out a

0:33:18.640 --> 0:33:23.040
<v Speaker 2>way to maximize his skill set time. Everything about his

0:33:23.080 --> 0:33:25.080
<v Speaker 2>scouting report has like you need to do kind of

0:33:25.080 --> 0:33:27.720
<v Speaker 2>these specific things to be really good, and he's done

0:33:27.760 --> 0:33:31.040
<v Speaker 2>that very well basically his whole time in Tampa.

0:33:32.040 --> 0:33:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Tigers gave up on him and they turn him

0:33:34.440 --> 0:33:40.160
<v Speaker 1>into this so Hey Swanson, Horner and parties. There's a

0:33:40.160 --> 0:33:41.960
<v Speaker 1>lot of talent in that infield. There's a lot of

0:33:41.960 --> 0:33:44.960
<v Speaker 1>talent around that Cubs team. Maybe the light bulb goes

0:33:45.000 --> 0:33:47.560
<v Speaker 1>off soon and it all looks very pretty.

0:33:48.240 --> 0:33:53.080
<v Speaker 2>And you know, he's like Parade's original organization. Let's see

0:33:53.280 --> 0:33:58.600
<v Speaker 2>Marlins Cubs. They might have they liked, not wanted to

0:33:58.640 --> 0:34:01.080
<v Speaker 2>give him up in the first place. Jack Flaherty was

0:34:01.120 --> 0:34:05.280
<v Speaker 2>scratched from his start. Okay like that, and they have

0:34:05.360 --> 0:34:10.080
<v Speaker 2>said in protection for a trade. Yeah, got they're not,

0:34:10.280 --> 0:34:11.439
<v Speaker 2>they're not. He's not hurt.

0:34:11.520 --> 0:34:18.200
<v Speaker 1>We're here. Uh And speaking of we're here, Michael Lorenzen

0:34:18.360 --> 0:34:23.840
<v Speaker 1>got traded live to the Royals today. Instant reviews on that.

0:34:23.960 --> 0:34:26.440
<v Speaker 1>Our Royals are just getting insurance for what's been a

0:34:26.480 --> 0:34:29.799
<v Speaker 1>strong starting pitching. Their bullpen had a couple injuries over

0:34:29.800 --> 0:34:33.400
<v Speaker 1>the weekend and I don't know it was an interesting note.

0:34:33.560 --> 0:34:38.200
<v Speaker 1>I think for my guy Bradford Doolittle, that Kansas City

0:34:38.200 --> 0:34:41.360
<v Speaker 1>has gotten the least amount of contributions from its rookies

0:34:41.400 --> 0:34:46.480
<v Speaker 1>this year. Are my negative war from all their rookies

0:34:46.480 --> 0:34:49.200
<v Speaker 1>this year, Which that's where your depth comes from in baseball.

0:34:49.719 --> 0:34:53.120
<v Speaker 1>So Michael Lorenzen gives them depth, bullpen when they need it,

0:34:53.160 --> 0:34:55.600
<v Speaker 1>starter if they need it. Texas gets to save a

0:34:55.640 --> 0:34:57.600
<v Speaker 1>little money. We'll see what else they do, because it

0:34:57.640 --> 0:35:02.720
<v Speaker 1>seems like they have more pitch on the way. Nobody's

0:35:02.760 --> 0:35:04.520
<v Speaker 1>really sure. They were kind of one of the wild

0:35:04.520 --> 0:35:08.200
<v Speaker 1>cards of the deadline, and we just broke the the

0:35:08.280 --> 0:35:11.960
<v Speaker 1>other live trades to you, so uh, I think I

0:35:11.960 --> 0:35:15.640
<v Speaker 1>I want to circle up on the next twenty four

0:35:15.640 --> 0:35:17.360
<v Speaker 1>hours or so and what we're gonna see. We'll be

0:35:17.480 --> 0:35:23.279
<v Speaker 1>live on our Talking Baseball Channel h recapping where we've

0:35:23.320 --> 0:35:28.560
<v Speaker 1>gotten to and what's coming next. Uh down the line.

0:35:28.600 --> 0:35:33.080
<v Speaker 1>Baltimore as big of a threat as anyone. Boston, I

0:35:33.120 --> 0:35:36.440
<v Speaker 1>don't know, just swap prospects. Let's see what else they

0:35:36.440 --> 0:35:39.040
<v Speaker 1>got up there. Sleep They brought in Danny Jansen in Paxton,

0:35:39.120 --> 0:35:43.600
<v Speaker 1>which Hey, that was my ask, was Boston, show you're involved,

0:35:44.040 --> 0:35:45.319
<v Speaker 1>they're involved there.

0:35:45.520 --> 0:35:47.640
<v Speaker 2>They seem to be trying to make smart moves.

0:35:47.640 --> 0:35:51.160
<v Speaker 1>Wouldn't be surprised if something else happens. White Sox keep

0:35:51.160 --> 0:35:54.560
<v Speaker 1>emptying the chamber, although after Fetti, like we talked about,

0:35:54.600 --> 0:35:58.560
<v Speaker 1>there's you know, there's some smaller parts or Luis Robert

0:36:00.280 --> 0:36:02.600
<v Speaker 1>that I would love to see that trade happen, or

0:36:02.680 --> 0:36:05.520
<v Speaker 1>one of the other White Sox. That's I don't want

0:36:05.520 --> 0:36:07.239
<v Speaker 1>to say fallen from glory, but like i'd love to

0:36:07.239 --> 0:36:10.120
<v Speaker 1>see Eloy in a New Jersey. How do I make

0:36:10.160 --> 0:36:10.720
<v Speaker 1>that happen?

0:36:11.120 --> 0:36:12.399
<v Speaker 2>Just get him somewhere else.

0:36:12.440 --> 0:36:14.880
<v Speaker 1>I know the money feels different. Tommy Fams currently on

0:36:14.920 --> 0:36:15.800
<v Speaker 1>those white socks.

0:36:16.800 --> 0:36:18.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's gonna go.

0:36:18.280 --> 0:36:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Does someone think Andrew Vaughn can tap into something Michael

0:36:23.320 --> 0:36:25.239
<v Speaker 1>Kopek in the back end of their up bullpens, so

0:36:25.320 --> 0:36:30.120
<v Speaker 1>they should be doing more Cleveland, nobody knows. Cleveland fans

0:36:30.160 --> 0:36:32.560
<v Speaker 1>got mad at me for saying that front office I

0:36:32.680 --> 0:36:35.600
<v Speaker 1>can't believe in them making them doing a deal. They

0:36:35.640 --> 0:36:41.040
<v Speaker 1>reference trades from like twenty eighteen. Sorry, I think they

0:36:41.200 --> 0:36:43.200
<v Speaker 1>like what they got and they don't like to spend money,

0:36:43.200 --> 0:36:47.600
<v Speaker 1>which is a tough trade convo. Tigers. You just heard

0:36:47.640 --> 0:36:50.320
<v Speaker 1>Jack Flaherty. That's the big one. They also have bullpen pieces.

0:36:50.360 --> 0:36:53.279
<v Speaker 1>Don't be surprised if one of those either gets attached

0:36:54.560 --> 0:36:57.440
<v Speaker 1>or just traded, because bullpen pieces are getting returns.

0:36:57.880 --> 0:37:00.799
<v Speaker 2>Any any team might have reliever come and go.

0:37:01.280 --> 0:37:05.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we're seeing some of the contenders do it. Houston.

0:37:06.160 --> 0:37:11.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm super interested to see. Man they are they are

0:37:11.800 --> 0:37:15.400
<v Speaker 1>always just snake in the grassing. Man are they gonna

0:37:15.400 --> 0:37:20.760
<v Speaker 1>add pitching? They could, They can add, and they cannot,

0:37:20.880 --> 0:37:24.239
<v Speaker 1>and they're fine either way. They're sick org And if

0:37:24.239 --> 0:37:28.520
<v Speaker 1>you're looking for something to watch tonight, Paul Skins versus

0:37:28.520 --> 0:37:32.239
<v Speaker 1>your Houston Astros, Uh, they've got it. They should add

0:37:32.239 --> 0:37:34.680
<v Speaker 1>some pitching. I wouldn't be surprised if that's what happens

0:37:34.680 --> 0:37:37.880
<v Speaker 1>for Houston. Kansas City's you've been in the mix. They

0:37:37.920 --> 0:37:41.880
<v Speaker 1>were supposedly in the Jazz Chisholm mix, so it is Pittsburgh.

0:37:42.440 --> 0:37:45.680
<v Speaker 1>Those teams are both looking to add cost effective hitting.

0:37:45.760 --> 0:37:48.040
<v Speaker 1>That's what I said about jazz chism. I think some

0:37:48.120 --> 0:37:50.320
<v Speaker 1>one of those teams is gonna give in for Brent Rooker.

0:37:50.600 --> 0:37:53.399
<v Speaker 1>I really think they should. Brent Riker's got a lot

0:37:53.440 --> 0:37:58.359
<v Speaker 1>of positive numbers there that I think I think they

0:37:58.400 --> 0:38:03.960
<v Speaker 1>could angels hard. They got pieces Polar will run, heathho

0:38:04.040 --> 0:38:08.440
<v Speaker 1>and Ward go Tyler Anderson. Yeah, there's a lot more

0:38:08.480 --> 0:38:11.160
<v Speaker 1>deadline coming. I'm pretty hype. I didn't think this deadline

0:38:11.200 --> 0:38:14.960
<v Speaker 1>was gonna give us anything. Twins nervous should be adding

0:38:15.520 --> 0:38:19.520
<v Speaker 1>they've got a lot of complications. Yankees still looking for

0:38:19.600 --> 0:38:22.680
<v Speaker 1>impact ads. Minimum we're looking for still at this point

0:38:22.719 --> 0:38:26.359
<v Speaker 1>is pitching. There's some hitting options that can figure themselves out.

0:38:26.640 --> 0:38:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Scary would ideally like another infielder and some pitching. Oakland

0:38:34.440 --> 0:38:37.960
<v Speaker 1>not as crazy hard cell as you think, like Andrew Horror,

0:38:38.880 --> 0:38:42.040
<v Speaker 1>maybe Brent Rooker. I'd love if they would, but they're

0:38:42.080 --> 0:38:45.640
<v Speaker 1>asking for a big price. There's a couple bullpen arms,

0:38:46.200 --> 0:38:46.640
<v Speaker 1>but I.

0:38:46.640 --> 0:38:48.160
<v Speaker 2>Don't know the time of year, you never know what's

0:38:48.200 --> 0:38:51.040
<v Speaker 2>being said. It's just like a leverage play.

0:38:51.400 --> 0:38:55.240
<v Speaker 1>Right, So, I mean they don't have to move Rooker.

0:38:55.280 --> 0:38:57.600
<v Speaker 1>They don't and Rooker. I could see where teams are

0:38:57.600 --> 0:39:00.480
<v Speaker 1>probably trying to lowball on Rooker. I threw some shade

0:39:00.480 --> 0:39:04.239
<v Speaker 1>that way. Doesn't have a great defensive position. You could

0:39:04.280 --> 0:39:07.560
<v Speaker 1>say it feels flukey, even though it's like not like

0:39:07.600 --> 0:39:09.359
<v Speaker 1>it's been there for a year and a half now,

0:39:09.360 --> 0:39:12.799
<v Speaker 1>and this was a former big time prospect. Let's see

0:39:12.800 --> 0:39:17.360
<v Speaker 1>what goes on there. Seattle, get me more hitting, Tampa,

0:39:17.520 --> 0:39:22.000
<v Speaker 1>keep mixing it up, Texas complete wildcard, probably gonna stand

0:39:22.040 --> 0:39:26.640
<v Speaker 1>mostly pat Yeah, sold Lorenzen. They don't have a lot

0:39:26.640 --> 0:39:28.040
<v Speaker 1>of open just spots.

0:39:29.400 --> 0:39:32.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they'll like it. Obviously, they've already done some traits.

0:39:32.840 --> 0:39:36.600
<v Speaker 2>It's but it's just a kind of shuffling of the deck.

0:39:36.760 --> 0:39:41.799
<v Speaker 1>A little bit. Arizona could be good. Let's see. They

0:39:41.840 --> 0:39:44.080
<v Speaker 1>added they've been playing better baseball. They could be in

0:39:44.120 --> 0:39:46.400
<v Speaker 1>the mix. Braves. Everyone kind of thinks they're gonna do

0:39:46.440 --> 0:39:50.120
<v Speaker 1>a nuclear move, or they thought they were gonna do

0:39:50.200 --> 0:39:53.000
<v Speaker 1>a nuclear move as it gets closer to the deadline,

0:39:53.480 --> 0:39:57.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. The Braves keep things close to the chest. Uh.

0:39:58.680 --> 0:40:03.160
<v Speaker 1>I would I would expect them. Okay, Atlanta's got to

0:40:03.200 --> 0:40:06.879
<v Speaker 1>do something right like the Mets caught them at one point.

0:40:08.040 --> 0:40:10.879
<v Speaker 1>I would expect the Braves to either do and I

0:40:10.920 --> 0:40:14.360
<v Speaker 1>referenced this before anyone in any line of business business

0:40:14.400 --> 0:40:19.600
<v Speaker 1>references what they did before Braves traded for a hodgepodge

0:40:19.600 --> 0:40:23.480
<v Speaker 1>of players. They ended up being the best offense in baseball.

0:40:23.520 --> 0:40:26.880
<v Speaker 1>They ended up winning the World Series. Could they do

0:40:27.000 --> 0:40:30.239
<v Speaker 1>a polar couple? Other guy grab bag and try to

0:40:30.239 --> 0:40:35.279
<v Speaker 1>figure some things out. Sure, could they do the big move?

0:40:35.320 --> 0:40:38.239
<v Speaker 1>Could they do a crochet or something like that? Absolutely,

0:40:38.280 --> 0:40:41.759
<v Speaker 1>they're the Braves. Uh So I didn't realize this to now,

0:40:41.760 --> 0:40:45.040
<v Speaker 1>and that's why I'm doing this exercise. But I would

0:40:45.080 --> 0:40:49.800
<v Speaker 1>expect the Braves to do significant something or some things

0:40:50.040 --> 0:40:54.439
<v Speaker 1>in the next twenty five hours. If they don't, I mean,

0:40:54.480 --> 0:40:58.799
<v Speaker 1>I think if you want losers and winners, people would

0:40:58.800 --> 0:41:04.759
<v Speaker 1>really be head till at Atlanta. Coubbies, I don't know

0:41:06.040 --> 0:41:10.880
<v Speaker 1>that me and that franchise are struggling right now that

0:41:11.000 --> 0:41:15.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. There's jameson Tyonne selling rumors. Can you

0:41:15.560 --> 0:41:20.799
<v Speaker 1>still do that? I don't know. Cubbies fans, if you're

0:41:20.800 --> 0:41:23.399
<v Speaker 1>tuning in, I guess what do you do? You want

0:41:23.400 --> 0:41:26.239
<v Speaker 1>to see them hard by at this point? I mean

0:41:26.280 --> 0:41:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Prede is for morel That's that's buying. They got Nate Pearson.

0:41:31.640 --> 0:41:34.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. It's just tough for me. Fangrafts has

0:41:34.040 --> 0:41:37.799
<v Speaker 1>them as a seven point seven percent shot to make

0:41:37.800 --> 0:41:43.040
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs, and I don't know. Something about that organ

0:41:43.040 --> 0:41:45.799
<v Speaker 1>has just felt a little off to me. Let's see

0:41:45.840 --> 0:41:48.480
<v Speaker 1>what else they do, Reds. I think our stan pat

0:41:48.480 --> 0:41:51.840
<v Speaker 1>slash soft sell don't have a ton of pieces. India

0:41:51.880 --> 0:41:53.840
<v Speaker 1>would be fun. I guess that's been rumored now for

0:41:53.880 --> 0:41:58.160
<v Speaker 1>a year, though, you know, make it happen.

0:41:58.640 --> 0:42:00.760
<v Speaker 2>The gel v Argus is going to the White Sox

0:42:00.880 --> 0:42:01.840
<v Speaker 2>is part of that trade.

0:42:01.880 --> 0:42:05.879
<v Speaker 1>Good for them man, good for him, good for him,

0:42:05.920 --> 0:42:10.160
<v Speaker 1>good for them. Get some run, be good quick hands

0:42:10.719 --> 0:42:15.440
<v Speaker 1>like that. Uh So the Dodgers got Edmund. Huh they

0:42:15.480 --> 0:42:19.799
<v Speaker 1>get Edmund? Yeah, I guess you could slot him. I

0:42:19.880 --> 0:42:23.360
<v Speaker 1>wonder you can slot him anywhere. That's the beauty of

0:42:23.400 --> 0:42:27.800
<v Speaker 1>the Dodgers. Right Edvan can play in field, outfield.

0:42:27.520 --> 0:42:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Or they want to do whenever Mookie's back, whenever ever

0:42:30.080 --> 0:42:33.680
<v Speaker 2>WOOKI wants to play when he is back. I hate

0:42:33.719 --> 0:42:34.200
<v Speaker 2>to be rude.

0:42:34.280 --> 0:42:36.240
<v Speaker 1>I liked watching Mookie play right field.

0:42:37.400 --> 0:42:38.920
<v Speaker 2>Is that ever special field?

0:42:38.920 --> 0:42:40.960
<v Speaker 1>If that ever happened again, I'd be open to it.

0:42:41.040 --> 0:42:45.279
<v Speaker 1>But he was also fine up the middle, So whatever. Uh,

0:42:45.640 --> 0:42:49.440
<v Speaker 1>Marlin's still a couple relievers, maybe a big picture to sell.

0:42:49.480 --> 0:42:51.560
<v Speaker 1>I feel like we've talked about that for years now.

0:42:52.280 --> 0:42:55.359
<v Speaker 1>If there's ever a time like they're selling selling.

0:42:59.280 --> 0:43:02.000
<v Speaker 2>Seems like the White Socks are gonna walk away from

0:43:02.000 --> 0:43:04.920
<v Speaker 2>that with a couple more prospects in that trade. As well,

0:43:05.040 --> 0:43:08.160
<v Speaker 2>But I think Vargas is the only name we know. Okay,

0:43:08.239 --> 0:43:10.560
<v Speaker 2>it is the only name we're liking right familiar with.

0:43:11.280 --> 0:43:12.880
<v Speaker 2>I haven't seen any other names period.

0:43:13.080 --> 0:43:16.640
<v Speaker 1>But Milwaukee'll do something kind of weird and we'll shrug.

0:43:16.680 --> 0:43:19.400
<v Speaker 1>They traded for Nick Meher's reliever from the Rockies, so

0:43:19.480 --> 0:43:22.640
<v Speaker 1>expect him to go nuts the next couple of weeks,

0:43:23.719 --> 0:43:28.000
<v Speaker 1>next couple years. Probably Milwaukee's got the good sauce, Mets,

0:43:28.040 --> 0:43:32.960
<v Speaker 1>interesting soft ads. So far, is there gonna be any Flippies?

0:43:33.320 --> 0:43:43.480
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers get Michael Kopek a update.

0:43:44.520 --> 0:43:49.480
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna be good for them. Back to you, guys

0:43:49.480 --> 0:43:50.000
<v Speaker 1>in the booth.

0:43:51.239 --> 0:43:53.120
<v Speaker 2>White Sox joined the party.

0:43:52.800 --> 0:43:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Today, Arm Talent Times, Dodgers Times, leaving organization not known

0:43:59.120 --> 0:44:00.520
<v Speaker 1>for success.

0:44:02.120 --> 0:44:06.239
<v Speaker 2>Unclear, unclear to me if that's a separate move or

0:44:06.440 --> 0:44:08.840
<v Speaker 2>part of all, part of the reay.

0:44:09.960 --> 0:44:14.200
<v Speaker 1>Edmund and Kopek. Okay, Okay, Dodgers, I smell you. I

0:44:14.200 --> 0:44:16.560
<v Speaker 1>would have been interested if those two players went to

0:44:16.600 --> 0:44:21.319
<v Speaker 1>the Yanks. So good on you. Then good for the

0:44:21.320 --> 0:44:26.160
<v Speaker 1>White Sox forgetting a name people know. Matts jazz us up.

0:44:26.880 --> 0:44:30.640
<v Speaker 1>Do something fun, Phillies, You're always in the mix. Go

0:44:30.680 --> 0:44:33.359
<v Speaker 1>get Luis Robert. Otherwise, I think they could be done

0:44:33.360 --> 0:44:34.040
<v Speaker 1>and be fine.

0:44:36.280 --> 0:44:36.400
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:44:36.400 --> 0:44:40.560
<v Speaker 1>I could see them getting another starter, Tyler Phillips feeling

0:44:40.560 --> 0:44:43.360
<v Speaker 1>in great for them. Kobe Allard currently in the rotation,

0:44:44.560 --> 0:44:48.120
<v Speaker 1>can't have enough arms. Come October, Pittsburgh gets some hitting man,

0:44:49.120 --> 0:44:52.480
<v Speaker 1>get a bat. What is we doing? Jesse Winker was

0:44:52.480 --> 0:44:53.640
<v Speaker 1>there for cheap, cheap, cheap.

0:44:55.280 --> 0:44:58.200
<v Speaker 2>You can get Josh bellf for back for just want

0:44:58.239 --> 0:44:59.040
<v Speaker 2>to pay his money.

0:44:59.239 --> 0:45:03.440
<v Speaker 1>San Diego, Pop Andres are supposedly inn on Snell, so

0:45:03.480 --> 0:45:07.800
<v Speaker 1>they're in on anything. I guess they're looking for pitching.

0:45:07.840 --> 0:45:13.040
<v Speaker 1>Their lineup is sneaky, like they've been doing it, sneaky,

0:45:13.160 --> 0:45:15.920
<v Speaker 1>just locked in. Like right now, Tatus is on the

0:45:15.920 --> 0:45:19.719
<v Speaker 1>I L So if you wanted a new catcher for

0:45:19.800 --> 0:45:24.480
<v Speaker 1>Campusano and Higgee, sure, although Higgey has been killing it

0:45:24.520 --> 0:45:28.560
<v Speaker 1>this year and Campusano's you know, was a real prospect

0:45:28.920 --> 0:45:35.600
<v Speaker 1>and there's no catchers available. So arrives Profar Croninworth, Machado,

0:45:35.719 --> 0:45:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Bogart's Merrill uh Tatis when he's back, Hassan Kim like

0:45:40.560 --> 0:45:44.200
<v Speaker 1>they're they're good. Maybe if there was ever a kronin

0:45:44.280 --> 0:45:48.640
<v Speaker 1>Worth flip for a more first baseman first baseman, but

0:45:48.719 --> 0:45:50.480
<v Speaker 1>that's my guy, and we're not doing that.

0:45:50.840 --> 0:45:54.759
<v Speaker 2>David Hensley to the Marlins off waivers.

0:45:55.360 --> 0:45:59.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, uh, I'm gonna skip one team because I want

0:45:59.120 --> 0:46:01.280
<v Speaker 1>to come back to them. Saint Louis. So, what did

0:46:01.360 --> 0:46:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Saint Louis sell or? No, they got fetti, They got Fedi.

0:46:04.440 --> 0:46:08.520
<v Speaker 1>They're in a year and a half of fetti. Cardinals

0:46:08.560 --> 0:46:13.480
<v Speaker 1>are in. They love themselves. A veteran pitcher, A veteran.

0:46:13.440 --> 0:46:15.320
<v Speaker 2>What does he fit into that rotation?

0:46:15.760 --> 0:46:19.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he will like it there, good ad by them.

0:46:19.640 --> 0:46:23.320
<v Speaker 1>I like that Nationals. Let's keep selling h you moved

0:46:23.320 --> 0:46:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Winker a couple bullpen pieces. People have their eyes on

0:46:27.760 --> 0:46:30.680
<v Speaker 1>their lane. Thomas feels like the time would be now.

0:46:31.400 --> 0:46:33.600
<v Speaker 1>Let's let's see what that looks like. The team I

0:46:33.680 --> 0:46:39.560
<v Speaker 1>skipped the San Francisco Giants. Let's see snell is back,

0:46:39.719 --> 0:46:43.560
<v Speaker 1>Robbie Ray is back. They both had nasty outings. Kyle

0:46:43.680 --> 0:46:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Harrison just had a nasty outing. Logan Webb one of

0:46:47.840 --> 0:46:50.560
<v Speaker 1>the best most consistent pitchers in baseball. It feels like

0:46:50.640 --> 0:46:54.440
<v Speaker 1>it's coming together. They're fifty three and fifty five. It

0:46:54.480 --> 0:46:57.120
<v Speaker 1>says they have a twenty percent chance to make the postseason.

0:46:58.600 --> 0:47:03.440
<v Speaker 1>I like the Snakes, like the Padres, the Giants, Tyler

0:47:03.480 --> 0:47:06.720
<v Speaker 1>Fitzgerald going nuts for them. So Lair's been playing better.

0:47:07.280 --> 0:47:12.319
<v Speaker 1>Chapye been good man. I think they're gonna hold on

0:47:12.440 --> 0:47:14.680
<v Speaker 1>and hope. I don't know if it's the right move.

0:47:17.680 --> 0:47:22.280
<v Speaker 1>Maybe they do some retooling. They've kind of have pitching depth.

0:47:22.400 --> 0:47:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Now that we talked about this before the season, that

0:47:25.440 --> 0:47:27.520
<v Speaker 1>there was gonna be a day when Robbie Ray came back,

0:47:27.520 --> 0:47:31.160
<v Speaker 1>that things were gonna feel different. I wonder if they

0:47:31.200 --> 0:47:34.040
<v Speaker 1>put themselves in the mix, they'd be a sneaky, great

0:47:34.120 --> 0:47:40.000
<v Speaker 1>Vlattie team. If I was doing clickbait, you know, could

0:47:40.000 --> 0:47:42.719
<v Speaker 1>they give up a real prospect package to go get

0:47:42.800 --> 0:47:45.479
<v Speaker 1>Vladdie and kind of get the star they've been looking for.

0:47:47.480 --> 0:47:49.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. That's some deep end. I've got my

0:47:49.960 --> 0:47:52.600
<v Speaker 1>eyes big time on the San Francisco Giants to see

0:47:52.600 --> 0:47:54.640
<v Speaker 1>what they do in the next twenty four hours, although

0:47:54.800 --> 0:47:59.920
<v Speaker 1>my guess is not much. Atlanta's got to do some shopping.

0:48:00.120 --> 0:48:03.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm excited for that. I've fallen into that. The Dodgers

0:48:03.960 --> 0:48:08.520
<v Speaker 1>just made their move fantastic. I'm obviously watching my Yankees.

0:48:08.880 --> 0:48:12.000
<v Speaker 1>We'll see if Houston gives us something and will one

0:48:12.080 --> 0:48:14.360
<v Speaker 1>of the teams really cash in on chips like a

0:48:14.400 --> 0:48:20.640
<v Speaker 1>Seattle starting pitcher. Baltimore's real prospects. Until then, I might

0:48:20.640 --> 0:48:24.239
<v Speaker 1>see on talking baseball. We'll see it here on Wednesday,

0:48:24.280 --> 0:48:27.000
<v Speaker 1>maybe with a jolly or a fool. Otherwise, tell them
