Speaker 1: Peanuts, cracker Jacks and Frindos. Welcome in. It is leading
Speaker 1: off on Fantasy pros. I'm Chris Welsh, your host because
Speaker 1: Joe piece Apia is not here doing his job. Who
Speaker 1: does he think he is?
Speaker 2: How do you take vacation? Don't you know where you live?
Speaker 2: We don't do vacation in this country.
Speaker 1: Come on, that's not Bubba, that's Bogman. Bogman is back
Speaker 1: with us again. He uh, you know, just can't get
Speaker 1: enough of me, cannot get enough of me, and he
Speaker 1: is back to join in again. Bubba had a I
Speaker 1: had a thing. I think you had a car thing.
Speaker 1: So emergency pinch hitting. So hi Bogman, welcome back.
Speaker 3: In, Thanks for having me again. Glad to be here.
Speaker 3: So let's talk some baseball. Let's talk this hilarious Archie
Speaker 3: Bradley thing I call.
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, you're you're jumping way ahead into
Speaker 1: the show. I know, I know, but it's I'm gonna
Speaker 1: pre tell you right now. I'm gonna have to work
Speaker 1: very hard to not laugh. I'm gonna have to work
Speaker 1: very hard to not laugh because we don't want.
Speaker 2: To be an impossibility for me.
Speaker 1: We'll see, we've got some surprises. We have got new
Speaker 1: entries into the Photoshop Joe Hair contest. I thought it
Speaker 1: was dead. It's up to you guys to make sure
Speaker 1: it lives on. And we've got a couple of new entries.
Speaker 1: So we are back on for a contest. And also
Speaker 1: we have a wrinkle in the home run contest. Today
Speaker 1: we have a double points day, so it should be very,
Speaker 1: very fun. Bogman, let's go back in time. We're going
Speaker 1: back in time to a time that Patrick Corbin was good.
Speaker 1: He throws two pitches. Those two pitches were efficient back
Speaker 1: in the day. And Patrick Corbin struck out twelve and
Speaker 1: a win against the Pirates yesterday, and we were talking
Speaker 1: about the Pirates.
Speaker 2: How does because he was right?
Speaker 3: Uh, well, my quick math would be it's the Pirates.
Speaker 3: So because my thought process yesterday was I bet Patrick
Speaker 3: Corbin wishes he could pitch against the Pirates every single
Speaker 3: time out when he looks like this, because I looked
Speaker 3: he's had nothing close to this all year long, not
Speaker 3: even a whiff.
Speaker 1: I don't think you could have strung two starts together
Speaker 1: for him to be this effective, or have them in
Speaker 1: a way.
Speaker 2: It's awful.
Speaker 3: No, he's been awful so uh, this came out of nowhere. Look,
Speaker 3: but I expect this to return from whence? It came
Speaker 3: very very fast. I do not believe we will see
Speaker 3: another start like this from Patrick Corban this year.
Speaker 1: No, no, yeah, Patrick Corbyn dropped his crystal shoes and
Speaker 1: the ball is about the end real.
Speaker 2: Look at Wonky, do you see this?
Speaker 3: I was inspired by Chad Coole, so I started Corbin
Speaker 3: and DFS.
Speaker 2: That went very well for me. Yes, Wonky wow, amazing call.
Speaker 1: Wow wow wow. And just as a precursor to a
Speaker 1: little bit later as well, speaking of those pirates, just
Speaker 1: want to point out someone was mean to me yesterday
Speaker 1: Mike decided to come back. He prestarted the show with
Speaker 1: a little comment about maybe something we're going to talk
Speaker 1: about here in a little bit. Other headlines around baseball.
Speaker 1: Glabor Torres back in the lineup today. He's had a
Speaker 1: very good comeback year. Actually, Joe and I, when we
Speaker 1: were going through the MVP voting or the All Star voting,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I actually put Labor Torres in because the
Speaker 1: position just wasn't one hundred percent and didn't make sense.
Speaker 1: Missing a little bit of time doesn't necessarily help, but
Speaker 1: I put Glabor Torres kind of back in their box.
Speaker 1: Matt Olsen blasts two Homers as he attempts to get
Speaker 1: back in. There was a time period where matt Olsen
Speaker 1: was in the same tier of like Pete Alonzo, completely
Speaker 1: different tiers now.
Speaker 3: Yeah, completely different tiers. I'm with you for sure, boy.
Speaker 1: Mike Corbyn only had ten strikeouts in his previous three
Speaker 1: starts combined. That is from Mike Mayer only cow.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know what happened. He must have.
Speaker 3: Do you think he met maybe Joe is a Devil's advocate.
Speaker 3: Was he out there meeting Patrick corbyni and stuff? Do
Speaker 3: you think that's what it is?
Speaker 1: I think it's possible. Yeah, shout out to his photoshop picture.
Speaker 1: Freddie Freeman fired his agent over the Atlanta contract situation,
Speaker 1: and if everybody saw this, there was actually God now
Speaker 1: I'm forgetting who it was there was. It was a
Speaker 1: player that came out and said he's not even surprised
Speaker 1: at this. Oh it was Chipper Jones. Chipper Jones apparently
Speaker 1: had been warning Freddie Freeman to fire his agents and
Speaker 1: he wanted to return to Atlanta. The report is and
Speaker 1: the agents overplayed the hand it got probably messy where
Speaker 1: Atlanta just didn't call back, and if you remember, like
Speaker 1: they kind of said that goodbye to Freddy and he
Speaker 1: was like, oh, I don't know what happened. So apparently
Speaker 1: he was pissed and he fired his agents and currently
Speaker 1: is representing himself.
Speaker 2: So yeah, that's not good.
Speaker 3: I mean, you got to get somebody else in there
Speaker 3: pretty quick for you. But I mean, he's signed a
Speaker 3: long deal with the Dodgers anyway, so I know he
Speaker 3: pro probably wants to go back to Atlanta, but tough
Speaker 3: that door shut.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jacob de Graham threw a live batting practice on Wednesday,
Speaker 1: which is very very good news. We can get him
Speaker 1: back here in the near future. Again, I think you know,
Speaker 1: with these like live VP sessions, you're still looking at
Speaker 1: a timeline post All Star break. We have sures are
Speaker 1: potentially coming back on Sunday to Grom's got to actually
Speaker 1: throw in some simulated like a full on game and
Speaker 1: then probably a start or two after, so you know
Speaker 1: there's a possibility. I keep saying All Star Game, it
Speaker 1: might be beyond, So just throwing that out there, it
Speaker 1: might be something that isn't until.
Speaker 3: Late July early August. Is like the new that's the window.
Speaker 3: That's where they want him back.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's where you might have to look for.
Speaker 1: Aaron Ashby completed another bullpen session. He could return as
Speaker 1: early as this weekend.
Speaker 2: Get back out there, Come on, let's go.
Speaker 1: Yeah, to continue the Ashby versus Strider series that I
Speaker 1: will be following all season long. Luis Castile struck out
Speaker 1: eleven in a win against the Cubs, and Robbie Ray
Speaker 1: toss seven scoreless, one hit innings and a no decision
Speaker 1: versus the Orioles. In Luis Castillo Molly both kind of
Speaker 1: pushing up their trade value, and we think we talked
Speaker 1: about it yesterday that Hayman has also he was talking
Speaker 1: about the with Mirifield trade rumors. There's also kind of
Speaker 1: an uptick in in stral Castillo. And I'm glad Larry
Speaker 1: you put this up here because I meant to copy this.
Speaker 1: And I think maybe one of the bigger pieces of
Speaker 1: news was Fernando Tatis said he's feeling good and he's
Speaker 1: going to begin swinging in about two weeks. So again
Speaker 1: timeline stuff that's right around probably all Star break. He's
Speaker 1: going to have to get into IM guessing a rehab
Speaker 1: game maybe a week or so. He's miss significant time.
Speaker 1: I could expect a little bit bigger, but he's one
Speaker 1: of those guys that I could actually see them not
Speaker 1: doing it whatsoever, but not extended. So I think you're
Speaker 1: looking at the beginning of August, which is probably far
Speaker 1: beyond the timeline anybody actually really expected.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is just another reason why you don't want
Speaker 3: to go into the season with the player who's already hurt,
Speaker 3: because they have setbacks, they have weird stuff happened, and
Speaker 3: you know, now when you thought they're coming back in
Speaker 3: early July, that coming back in early August, and that's
Speaker 3: most of the season.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I was burned. We've talked about this
Speaker 1: long time. I was burned in basketball a couple of
Speaker 1: years back. With baseball, people like who's this Kawhi Leonard
Speaker 1: Kwi Leonard was injured going into the year, drafted him
Speaker 1: out for the season. Bogman did it with lev Bell.
Speaker 1: It was a little bit different, but it was more
Speaker 1: of the when there's a tenuous situation of like major
Speaker 1: contract holdouts or injuries, it really is the juice isn't
Speaker 1: worth the squeeze, especially you know, I've been seeing a
Speaker 1: lot of trade stuff. They're a little bit more dynasty.
Speaker 1: But also if you think of production, somebody presented one
Speaker 1: as our guy friend James McGrath in this league listener
Speaker 1: and it was his Fernando Tatis for Bobby Witt and
Speaker 1: then a pitcher, let's just call it a mid line pitcher,
Speaker 1: And there were contracts and stuff that were involved in it,
Speaker 1: but he was still looking at it from a this
Speaker 1: year perspective. He's like, listen, Bobby Witt is, you know,
Speaker 1: in line to be a twenty twenty guy. How much
Speaker 1: production are you really losing with Bobby Witt to Fernando
Speaker 1: Tatis Junior when he comes. It's maybe not enough. The
Speaker 1: shortstop position is just so wide the gaps of widen
Speaker 1: that what is the risk really worth, especially with him
Speaker 1: kind of carrying a little bit of an injury tag
Speaker 1: with him. That's something we're going to have to consider.
Speaker 1: He's not free of it, like you know, Akunia.
Speaker 2: Like he still has a shoulder thing.
Speaker 3: After gets after he gets past this risk thing, you know,
Speaker 3: and that's all good. He still has the shoulder thing
Speaker 3: because he hasn't had surgery on it yet, and that's
Speaker 3: going to keep happening to him. So he's just he's
Speaker 3: he's a tough player to own this second. I mean
Speaker 3: next year, he's a great player to own, you know,
Speaker 3: and especially hopefully resting that shoulder has helped him.
Speaker 2: Okay, but but with.
Speaker 1: Him, though, will you go into next year? Well, you're
Speaker 1: the worst person to ask this, because you will. But
Speaker 1: it's like the question I want to ask you is,
Speaker 1: will you go in with a injury tag on tatis
Speaker 1: moving forward of a fear?
Speaker 3: And I know I'll take an injury prone player over
Speaker 3: an injured player all day long. I'll take Judge and
Speaker 3: Stanton and even those guys annoying me. The only guy
Speaker 3: I won't take his Steven Strasburg. Because why you do this.
Speaker 1: To find injury prone versus injury plagued.
Speaker 3: A guy that has missed at least a month of
Speaker 3: the season for three years straight, someone who hasn't played
Speaker 3: one hundred and forty games, but.
Speaker 1: Also, like injury prone tends to be like they are
Speaker 1: just consistently getting injured in kind of the same fashion. Injury. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because there's the guys that are just like they have
Speaker 1: goofy stuff. Jean Carlos Stanton really kind of suffered from
Speaker 1: goofy injuries happening to someone that has got nagging injuries
Speaker 1: that kind of continuously go. And I'm curious at how
Speaker 1: many people are going to kind of start baking that,
Speaker 1: like Olibert, timnd Tocy. You cannot move forward to Aliberto
Speaker 1: Mond to see think Eversbourg, No, no, right, but that
Speaker 1: he'll ever play one hundred games. You can never assume
Speaker 1: he'll do that, so you have to draft him accordingly.
Speaker 1: So if everybody gets caught in their feelings again next
Speaker 1: year where it's like, oh, I can get fifty stolen bases,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna draft him in the third round, you'll never
Speaker 1: get him more than that. Are we in a space
Speaker 1: and will we get in a space with Fernando Tatis
Speaker 1: where we know we will never get a certain amount
Speaker 1: of games from or I mean, I think it's too
Speaker 1: soon to do that, but you're more of an injury.
Speaker 3: I think so. No, I think it's too soon to
Speaker 3: do that. I think if he has surgery on his
Speaker 3: shoulder eventually, then he'll be fine. But that surgery, which
Speaker 3: he probably should have had at the beginning of this season,
Speaker 3: will keep you out for a long time.
Speaker 2: It's a long term injury. It's like a year.
Speaker 3: So it's gonna suck if he ever does have to
Speaker 3: have that, But it's probably gonna happen. Hmmm.
Speaker 1: Don't like it. Gonna have injuries. Branda mar stay to
Speaker 1: day with a Nebrews. Kelly Jansen expected back when he's
Speaker 1: first eligible in July. I know you were really worried
Speaker 1: about the irregular heartbeat.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, come on, you know, at what point
Speaker 3: do you just say, all right, I've made enough money.
Speaker 3: I'm getting a regular heartbeat on a consistent basis, This
Speaker 3: is not worth it. So it seems to be like
Speaker 3: this was a one day blip. It kind of panicked.
Speaker 3: They put him on the IL. Probably the right thing
Speaker 3: to do. Give him a rest for a little bit,
Speaker 3: make sure he's okay, and then he comes back. But
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, I can't imagine that Kelly Jansen
Speaker 3: has a you know, much much longer MLB career.
Speaker 2: I think it's gonna come do to fairly quick.
Speaker 1: Yeah, something that's been caring for a long time. Mookie
Speaker 1: Bets is going to resume baseball activities on Wednesday, Thank you,
Speaker 1: Thank you. Liam Hendricks is going to throw a simulated
Speaker 1: game on Friday and Jazz Chisholm. He left the game
Speaker 1: early yesterday with lower back discomfort. That's what happens when
Speaker 1: you try to pull the ball more aggressive than any
Speaker 1: baseball player that exists. You're gonna probably pull your back, Bogman.
Speaker 1: Can we talk about can my attitude is about to change?
Speaker 1: Can we talk about this? Can you kick mine that joke?
Speaker 1: Can you kick on yell Cruise?
Speaker 2: Hmmm?
Speaker 1: This week Onell Cruz hit his homer. We talked about it.
Speaker 1: I got called a hater and let's just let's just
Speaker 1: go back this again. Let's go back. I love I
Speaker 1: love seeing this. This is my favorite. Three words. If
Speaker 1: we ever have a contest named give me three words
Speaker 1: combined that Welsh loves more than anything. Well, Welsh was right.
Speaker 1: Welsh was right. Onell Cruz goes oh for four with
Speaker 1: three strikeouts. I was just I was actually stacking up.
Speaker 1: I will tell you I had about five different tweets
Speaker 1: locked together. I was typing. I was like I did
Speaker 1: that one. I had one that was like.
Speaker 2: Too mean, too soft, too mean? No, it was too richy.
Speaker 2: Could you couldn't find a Goldilocks one? There?
Speaker 1: Here was my main one. It was gonna be oh
Speaker 1: for four, Neil like oh Neil, and then Cruise into
Speaker 1: three strikeouts and that was gonna be it. I didn't
Speaker 1: put it out there. Probably a good thing, but it's
Speaker 1: actually not just to let everybody know that Onio Cruz
Speaker 1: went oh for four with three strikeouts, because you already
Speaker 1: know that oneo Cruz went over four with three strikeouts.
Speaker 1: It's this Oneal Cruz on DraftKings is currently the number
Speaker 1: one player as odds go for Rookie of the Year,
Speaker 1: the number one of all of the NL Rookie of
Speaker 1: the Year candidatesman hold on. Have these guys, all of them,
Speaker 1: all of them, all the guys that have been playing
Speaker 1: months prior McKenzie gore losing prospect eligibility, Spencer Strider, Nolan
Speaker 1: Gorman has been up. There is no player that has
Speaker 1: worse worse odds than O'Neil Cruz. He is pluck. I
Speaker 1: mean it is plus but plus three eighty the number
Speaker 1: one Rookie of the year odds on favorite for DraftKings.
Speaker 3: Have these guys not watched Buddy Kennedy, That's my question,
Speaker 3: Like Buddy Kennedy, h No, I'm kidding, but uh, look
Speaker 3: the hype.
Speaker 2: It's all the hype. It's everything you said.
Speaker 3: And by the way, not only did he go oh
Speaker 3: for last night, he also threw one across the diamond
Speaker 3: and it was like, but how fast it to be
Speaker 3: close to one hundred miles an hour, but it was
Speaker 3: right in the dirt and right past Michael Schoffs.
Speaker 1: Well, but it's only it's only important to know how
Speaker 1: fast he threw it. Here are some other odds in
Speaker 1: the NL. Just again, you want to play rookie of
Speaker 1: the year, the guy who just got called up a
Speaker 1: week ago, but he can throw ninety seven and you
Speaker 1: know there's an hour in there.
Speaker 2: You didn't mention it.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm going to give them to you. I'm going
Speaker 1: to give them all to you. Number two, Michael Harris
Speaker 1: is at four point fifty. O'Neill Cruiz is at three eighty.
Speaker 1: Michael Harris is at four to fifties, wild Mackenzie Gore
Speaker 1: plus five point fifty lower than O'Neal Cruz. Spencer Strider
Speaker 1: is at six hundred plus six hundred on there and
Speaker 1: then it just for his pants and then the other
Speaker 1: within like trajectory is Nolan Gorman, who has been up
Speaker 1: just a majority of the year hitting, you know, I
Speaker 1: mean he's striking on stuff, but tons of homers and
Speaker 1: stuff six fifty. Check these two out though this as
Speaker 1: will Alec Thomas is plus twenty five hundred and Jack
Speaker 1: Swinsky is plus two thousand. Swinsky, I mean average isn't
Speaker 1: quite there, but I think it's up to twelve homers.
Speaker 1: Swinsky at two thousand, Alec Thomas is twenty five hundred.
Speaker 1: Dans that are right there. Alex Thomas has a better
Speaker 1: chance at Rookie of the Year. I can not fathom
Speaker 1: how Oneal Cruz and you say hype. I mean I
Speaker 1: talk hype and I joke about it, but like the books,
Speaker 1: don't necessarily play hype. That's not the game that they play.
Speaker 1: They jump on a guy that just came up as
Speaker 1: the number. I mean maybe they are. Maybe I'm actually
Speaker 1: saying this incorrectly because they say, hey, we'll just put
Speaker 1: some goods odds up. We'll put him as a number one.
Speaker 1: People are gonna want to bet it, and we're gonna
Speaker 1: just rake in money. I'm shocked at the amount of
Speaker 1: guys that are up there, and just looking again, You've
Speaker 1: got guys a Christopher Morale. Hunter Green is plus nine thousand.
Speaker 1: Jan Ya pezs on that list at plus fifteen hundred
Speaker 1: and oneo Cruz the number one NL Rookie of the
Speaker 1: Year vote getter. Again, I don't like want him to fail.
Speaker 1: I told you, I mean I saw hyped.
Speaker 2: I saw one reel that showed why it was.
Speaker 3: It was he came up, he had the hardest throw,
Speaker 3: he had the hardest hit ball by a pirate in
Speaker 3: his first game, and he had a sprint speed faster
Speaker 3: than Tyreek Hill.
Speaker 2: Like, when you have.
Speaker 3: That and it's going across all social media, everyone thinks
Speaker 3: that this guy is going to break out and be
Speaker 3: a huge superstar. So if he puts even a whiff
Speaker 3: of stuff together, he's probably going to get the votes
Speaker 3: to win. So I understand him being at these odds,
Speaker 3: but it's just these other guys have been up for
Speaker 3: a couple months. Alek Thomas been hitting well the whole season,
Speaker 3: so it's it's just so surprising He's got the hype,
Speaker 3: but he definitely does not have the numbers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well this is I mean, Wonkey says if they
Speaker 1: awarded it based solely on stats, that would be sweet.
Speaker 1: But I think hype carries weight. I think carries but
Speaker 1: see I disagree. I think carries weight now, which is
Speaker 1: to this point, when the award comes in, it's not
Speaker 1: the rookie of hype a year. Whatever I can, it's
Speaker 1: not that. Hype obviously plays a role in this stuff
Speaker 1: as odds go through. So that's why I'm saying, I
Speaker 1: work through it live, like, Okay, it actually makes sense.
Speaker 1: Everyone's so excited about O'Neil Cruz. The hype is crazy.
Speaker 1: Put it up. Now, give us some odds that make
Speaker 1: people excited. But when you put him as number one,
Speaker 1: people are like, oh my god, this is the odds
Speaker 1: on favorite. Now it makes a lot of sense. It
Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense in my mind for the hype.
Speaker 1: But when comes to shove at the end of the year,
Speaker 1: I mean, it is about production. It's not about how
Speaker 1: hype the player is. It's gonna be about the production.
Speaker 1: It'll be beyond stats of like what did they do
Speaker 1: for their team or their team's winners where they have
Speaker 1: catalysts and stuff like that. Sure, but the hype make sense.
Speaker 3: Now if only Cruiz goes fifteen to fifteen, it hits
Speaker 3: two eighty, do you think.
Speaker 2: He just gets it?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry I say it again.
Speaker 2: Fifteen fifteen, it hits two eighty.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's a guarantee. I mean, Alec Thomas,
Speaker 1: Alc Thomas could go twenty for twenty, but I mean
Speaker 1: the hype might see that. That would be a situation
Speaker 1: where the hype could carry it. Just that's what I think.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because they'll also starts well goal glove defense he plays, you.
Speaker 1: Know that, like Thomas has been goal glove defense.
Speaker 3: They'll they'll just say that, you know, I'm yeah, I'm
Speaker 3: with you. But I do think that if if he
Speaker 3: puts up like a decent floor level stat line and
Speaker 3: plays decent defense, doesn't have a thousand errs like he
Speaker 3: did last night, then they'll probably give it to him.
Speaker 1: So I was speaking of Diamondbacks real quick. This is
Speaker 1: one other thing that I thought would be interesting to
Speaker 1: talk about. There was a six days scoring change. I
Speaker 1: don't know if you saw, our friend Ryan tweeted out, yeah,
Speaker 1: can we talk about this? Six days later he had
Speaker 1: won by three in his matchup. Then six days later
Speaker 1: there was a scoring change that made him lose by one.
Speaker 1: The scoring change was the double for has Sung Kim
Speaker 1: against the Diamondbacks at Padres on six twenty one was
Speaker 1: changed to an error on Jordan Luplow which allowed Kim
Speaker 1: or made Kim lose the RBI and the run UH
Speaker 1: scoring on the play, and it was changed to an
Speaker 1: unearned run against Zach Gallon, so that would affect Gallen
Speaker 1: and obviously Hassung Kim made him move.
Speaker 2: That's wild.
Speaker 3: That's why I had three days to make stat changes.
Speaker 3: Maybe that's the NFL. Maybe I'm getting them mixed up,
Speaker 3: but I thought three days. I thought like, okay, because
Speaker 3: this is why I wait to you know, if I'm
Speaker 3: a commission I wait to give out money until the
Speaker 3: following Thursday, because I thought that was when stat corrections happened.
Speaker 3: After you know, your last Monday night football game. You
Speaker 3: go Tuesday, Wednesday through third. If there's no stat corrections,
Speaker 3: it's not changing. So yeah, I was surprised to see
Speaker 3: such a big thing happen like this six days later.
Speaker 2: Very surprising quick.
Speaker 1: Burn through on these This day in baseball, I thought
Speaker 1: this was one interesting. Nineteen ninety five, Hideo Nomo struck
Speaker 1: out and this day thirteen Colorado Rockies in a three
Speaker 1: to zero victory, which gave him fifty strikeouts over four games.
Speaker 1: The stat goes on. This was the most it broke
Speaker 1: a Los Angeles record, Sandy Coofax, it had forty nine
Speaker 1: I think in that period. What I found interesting about
Speaker 1: that wrapped in because the Dodgers are playing the Rockies.
Speaker 1: The Dodgers have not struck out thirteen batters over the
Speaker 1: last two games against the Rockies. They've only struck out
Speaker 1: twelve against them, and also one for Bogman this day.
Speaker 1: In two thousand and three, Eric Burns.
Speaker 2: Hit for the cycle.
Speaker 1: So I thought you would enjoy that. I will attempt
Speaker 1: to because I want to spend a lot of time
Speaker 1: on this because as everybody's getting mad at me now
Speaker 1: that I spent you know, five minutes on O'Neil Cruz.
Speaker 1: So I really.
Speaker 2: Apologize that we've talked sports here.
Speaker 1: Sorry, John, I'll do better for you, John later. I'll
Speaker 1: make this show better and more catered for you. I'm
Speaker 1: probably not gonna laugh at this now, but this would
Speaker 1: go under Joe's tough guys, but we'll call this Welsh's
Speaker 1: Hardos Angels reliever Archie Bradley broke a bone because we
Speaker 1: don't laugh at injuries, you know, so hypothetically there's time
Speaker 1: for it, but we don't laugh at injuries. Broke a
Speaker 1: bone in his right elbow while climbing over the dugout
Speaker 1: railing during the Los Angeles Angels brawl with the Seattle
Speaker 1: Mariners on Tuesday. Bradley will now be out for at
Speaker 1: least a month. John Boy did a breakdown of it.
Speaker 1: Archie was just trying to come out the dugout to
Speaker 1: fight people and he broke his arm.
Speaker 3: I mean, just so funny and like what he has
Speaker 3: this story and the story of crapping his pants in
Speaker 3: his major league career.
Speaker 2: How has he lasted this long?
Speaker 1: Mike, He's amazing. I love you know, I love him.
Speaker 1: He's a He's a great guy.
Speaker 2: I got a great dude. But I mean, he is
Speaker 2: becoming a joke. And you don't want to get to
Speaker 2: that point when.
Speaker 1: You're two, When now you're two most famous, three most
Speaker 1: famous things about him are not about pitching. It's hitting
Speaker 1: what was it a triple in the playoffs? About pooping
Speaker 1: his pants and then about breaking your arm trying to
Speaker 1: fight people. But he did sign a ball saying go
Speaker 1: Sooners to Bogman that I gave to Bogman, which made
Speaker 1: me very very happy. Go Spooner's Bogman. Some stat heroes,
Speaker 1: Robbie Ray on the pitching side seven struck out eight,
Speaker 1: Patrick Corban we talked about, Franber Valdez went eight, struck
Speaker 1: out five, Dean Kreamer seven with five strikeouts, and Luis
Speaker 1: Castile struck out eleven over six innings. On the hitting side,
Speaker 1: bunch of bombs. Marcus Simon continues to roll. We did
Speaker 1: a look. Marcus Simeon was like hitting two seventy with
Speaker 1: seven homer, seven stolen bases coming into yesterday over the
Speaker 1: last thirty days. Puts on another three for four with
Speaker 1: a homer and four RBI. Joranalvarez three for three with
Speaker 1: the homer. Put it on the board. Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: I think I even said, as soon as I don't
Speaker 1: pick sho heyo Tani, I said, guarantee you'll hit a homer.
Speaker 1: He did. He was three for three, homer, two rbi,
Speaker 1: which the three for three got awesome. I don't even
Speaker 1: all too It was like Otani and Trout both hit
Speaker 1: homers and then they were still down by like seven
Speaker 1: by the white Socks are incredible. Speaking of Luis Robert
Speaker 1: three for five, yeah, three for five with a homer,
Speaker 1: Kyle Tucker had a homer, one for three, three RBI.
Speaker 1: He also had stolen base Combo meal. Charlie Blackman four
Speaker 1: for five RBI and two runs, and Jonathan India getting
Speaker 1: back into it just a tiny bit two for five
Speaker 1: with the homer and three RBIs.
Speaker 3: Charlie Blackman rocks Clayton Kershaw. He rocks him like him time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly. Stat zero's Clayton Kershaw six earned runs,
Speaker 1: walked four giving up nine hits against the Colorado Rocky.
Speaker 3: He even said I sucked today. That was his analysis
Speaker 3: of it.
Speaker 1: I don't understand I gotta tell you, I don't understand
Speaker 1: the the Dodger stuff. They get swept by the Pirates.
Speaker 1: They're getting just absolutely murdered by the Rockies. There something
Speaker 1: else this year, and then they'll go play Arizona and
Speaker 1: they'll sweep them. John Heasley three and two thirds, giving
Speaker 1: up seven earned runs, Carlos Carrasco gave up six and four,
Speaker 1: and Zach Gallon five inning, six earned run, two walks,
Speaker 1: too strikeouts and as I think Mayor put on here
Speaker 1: a five to six ERA for Gallon in June. He
Speaker 1: had that big strikeout performance. But he has been up,
Speaker 1: he has been down. It has been a whole thing
Speaker 1: for him. Zach Galla, Are you still heavily in on
Speaker 1: Zach Gallan? I mean no, you have to deal with
Speaker 1: your homerism here.
Speaker 2: No, I'm not. I've watched him enough to not be
Speaker 2: heavily into him.
Speaker 3: I think he's he is overrated, for sure, but I
Speaker 3: mean he's fine, but he's like a three.
Speaker 2: I don't think that he's an ace at all.
Speaker 1: Oh. I think he just said you've got negative ten
Speaker 1: points from Pershaw yesterday. Oh, he did suck the zero's
Speaker 1: on the hitting side, Michael Chaves four strikeouts, you're three guys,
Speaker 1: Ramon Larriano geo judge o'nial, Sorry said it.
Speaker 3: J D.
Speaker 1: Martinez Kwan was oh for six one strikeout, though one
Speaker 1: strikeout for Stephen Kuan is equivalent to like three strikeouts
Speaker 1: for a normal person. Andrew vaugh goes four for four
Speaker 1: A couple of days ago, OH for five with three strikeout,
Speaker 1: Ian Happo for five and Dansby Swanson OH four five.
Speaker 1: No bueno, friends, I got a homer in the home
Speaker 1: run contest yesterday. I needed it bad. Jordan Alvarez and
Speaker 1: on the contest we have hit some milestones. Let's take
Speaker 1: a look at the board on the home run side.
Speaker 1: Our first to thirty is high Cuby twenty sixteen with
Speaker 1: thirty home runs. We officially also crossed the sixteen home
Speaker 1: run marker. That is wild sixteen sixteen hundred homers. Larry's
Speaker 1: in second, title Chaser is in third. Those are pretty
Speaker 1: locked in. Joey is still on this board because he
Speaker 1: had Jordan Alvarez yesterday as well, so he is not
Speaker 1: dumbing off of it. I know it's brutal, Mayor, can
Speaker 1: you tell me how many I have? If I have
Speaker 1: fourteen fifteen, something like that, I need to know like
Speaker 1: how far I'm off and how much I need to reach.
Speaker 1: So good job to everybody. If you guys are not
Speaker 1: premium members over on the Discord, can oh do the
Speaker 1: naked thing again? Can take advantage of the home run contest.
Speaker 1: It's really easy on the Discord. Go into the home
Speaker 1: run room, you make your call and you're good to go,
Speaker 1: and you can make it every single week. As so,
Speaker 1: I have fifteen, so I've got I need to get
Speaker 1: a little lot more to do. One good week, Thank you, Wonky,
Speaker 1: I got fifteen. One good week. I could get going,
Speaker 1: but I've been on a bad curse. Now Wonky has
Speaker 1: declared we have a bonus day today. Wonkey's declaration is
Speaker 1: the rookie bonus. That's right. We talked about the rookies
Speaker 1: before and the Rookie of the Year. Any call of
Speaker 1: a player who is currently qualified as a rookie will
Speaker 1: count as double the home runs. We will come back
Speaker 1: to that here in just a little bit, Bogs and
Speaker 1: see where you're at and where I'm at over on
Speaker 1: the bets because our friends over I'm not taking the
Speaker 1: hat off today because I put too much, too much
Speaker 1: care on there yesterday. Right, I'm putting on my crown
Speaker 1: for our friends over at bet mgm. They are the Kings,
Speaker 1: and we have the offer for new users bet ten bucks.
Speaker 1: You're gonna win two hundred dollars on any game you bet,
Speaker 1: regardless of the outcome. All you have to do is
Speaker 1: download the app bet MGM, go, type it in wherever
Speaker 1: you go, and use the promo code leading off Kings
Speaker 1: Queens make money. It's free money. We're probably not going
Speaker 1: to be.
Speaker 2: Too sad when so here the bag Kings.
Speaker 1: When Joe's crown comes back and not mine, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Maybe you guys will like mine. Maybe Joe and I
Speaker 1: need to do like I'll wear my princess crown and
Speaker 1: he can wear his actual crown. I've got three bets
Speaker 1: for you today, and it's actually kind of juicy. There's
Speaker 1: a lot out there. I'm going with Sho Heyo Tani strikeouts.
Speaker 1: It's set at six and a half. It's plus money
Speaker 1: over on FanDuel, which I like. It can get a
Speaker 1: little bit here and there, but it's been big, big
Speaker 1: strikeouts for him lately. CJ Kron. CJ Cron has a
Speaker 1: six for fourteen track record BVP versus Julio Urias, and
Speaker 1: his total bases over on draft Kings are also plus money.
Speaker 1: Colorado has been putting them to the woodshed. This will
Speaker 1: be the game, of course, but he's got two doubles
Speaker 1: and two homer's career. Why six or fourteen? I like
Speaker 1: the total basis for c J. Cron And I'm also
Speaker 1: going with George Springer. He's going up against Nick Povetta,
Speaker 1: who's been good. His total base marker is at one
Speaker 1: and a half and it is plus money at one
Speaker 1: twenty and I just found this fascinating. He is six
Speaker 1: for twelve against Pavett, I think six or twelve or
Speaker 1: six or fourteen, but has zero career strikeouts against Nick Pavetta.
Speaker 1: So I'm kind of in on that marker and George
Speaker 1: Springer leading off a lot of opportunities. I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: with the total bases here at one and a half,
Speaker 1: and I will tell you there's a lot of good
Speaker 1: strikeout ones out there. I went too for one yesterday
Speaker 1: or yeah, yesterday, the Brandon woodriff one silly, ridiculous, but
Speaker 1: I nailed Shane bos and I nailed the Jordan Alvarez one.
Speaker 1: So hopefully jump back in on it here. Bogman over
Speaker 1: on the DFS, what do you got for us?
Speaker 3: Well, look, there's some good pitching history even better than
Speaker 3: PVB today. Kyle Wright against current Phillies on the roster,
Speaker 3: six for twenty eight. That's a one in eighty seven
Speaker 3: average against two homers. Two of those six have been bombed,
Speaker 3: but no other extra base hits hit against him. Alc
Speaker 3: Manoa six for forty five is the batting average for
Speaker 3: Red Sox against him.
Speaker 2: Red Sox on the roster.
Speaker 3: That's an eighty seven average, two doubles and no other
Speaker 3: extra base hits against him Cal Quantrill. For the Guardians
Speaker 3: going up against the Twins, their current batting average against
Speaker 3: him is one is one forty four nine for fifty
Speaker 3: nine with two homers and two triples. I think both
Speaker 3: those triples were hit by Luisa Rise and then in
Speaker 3: some PVB couple good ones you mentioned CJ. Crohn four
Speaker 3: to twenty nine batting average, two homers, two bombs versus
Speaker 3: Julio Urrias Boba Shett eight for nineteen of four to
Speaker 3: twenty one average, two homers, two doubles for Snick Pavetta.
Speaker 3: George Springers six for twelve, two doubles versus Pavetta and
Speaker 3: Charlie Blackman, another guy he's historically good against seven for
Speaker 3: twenty a three to fifty average at triple and two
Speaker 3: doubles versus Julio Urias good stuff.
Speaker 1: A stack wise looking at Texas, the second most implied
Speaker 1: runs outside of the the Dodger Rocky one is just
Speaker 1: going to continue going, but nine runs Dan Donny versus
Speaker 1: Granky on the Rangers royal side. I kind of like Texas.
Speaker 1: Atlanta would be another one of those that I think
Speaker 1: I would jump on if you can get any of
Speaker 1: those guys, and especially coming off with like a bad
Speaker 1: performance with Dansby. They've got Ranger Suarez, Ranger Swarez has
Speaker 1: been trash and Seattle if you're looking for some stacks. Finally,
Speaker 1: Bogs the home run call of the night. So we
Speaker 1: said it, rookies are going to be there. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: take Alec Thomas. I think actually somebody in the chat
Speaker 1: just a second ago was putting Alec Thomas out there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: right here, Dan, Alec Thomas two for two, and he
Speaker 1: already has a dinger against Mike Clevenger. I battled because
Speaker 1: I kind of like Bobby Witt today. And also, you know,
Speaker 1: let's secure the bat right there, the Bobby Wit bat.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of good places to go. Rookies get two.
Speaker 1: So friends, I am going to be going with Alec Thomas, Bogman, I'll.
Speaker 3: Take O'Neill Cruz since you talked all the smack against him,
Speaker 3: I'll take O'Neil Cruz and watch him hit two bombs
Speaker 3: tonight and get me four and get me back in
Speaker 3: this contest.
Speaker 1: Let's I almost thought, how great would it be if
Speaker 1: I went with him? And then I could just play
Speaker 1: both Sid really I should get him. If anything. Also,
Speaker 1: if you guys want over in the discord on the
Speaker 1: Premium chat and you can get in on the welsh Ama,
Speaker 1: we will continue the contest. I do have two new
Speaker 1: submissions as we're going to end the show for Joe
Speaker 1: piece of Pia photoshop hair. As we have the Devil's
