And thank you 29 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 2: for having me. Man. It's always fun to get on here, 30 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 2: and I'll hang out with you a little bit. 31 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: It's good to have you. I mean, this is actually 32 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: a perfect situation for you as well. You know, Mike 33 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 1: has been known for all of his crazy, big breakdowns. 34 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: We're gonna do a lot of breakdowns into this with 35 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 1: all of the coverage over at the Athletic also the 36 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 1: basis loaded podcasts. Do you have anything going rest of season? 37 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: I know the turn is happening. What are you still 38 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: doing over at the Athletic right now? 39 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 3: So I think I might have one more lineup article. 40 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 3: What I do over the Athletic is it's kind of 41 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 3: a niche of mind as I drop everything I had 42 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 3: prepared in terms of notes and pen onto the it's 43 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 3: a I do the whole uh. I do lineup breakdowns. 44 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 3: I look at playing time situations. Who's playing platoons? 45 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 2: I'm really big. 46 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 3: I'm focusing on those, so it seems like the Giants 47 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 3: and the Rays really frustrate me. But what I do 48 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 3: is I do that for the for the athletic, I 49 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 3: talk about, you know, potential call ups, who's going, who's 50 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 3: affected in which way and why whenever there's a new 51 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 3: player added to a team or a new player called 52 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 3: up and all that. Just always quick to be on 53 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 3: it and try to break it down as to like 54 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 3: who you might want to look at and deeper formats. 55 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,679 Speaker 3: A lot of the times this affects deeper formats and 56 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,799 Speaker 3: then I carry that over and for the Patreon I 57 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 3: do that for them like once a month in season, 58 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 3: and then for my patreon at patreon dot com slash Skplaybook, 59 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 3: I do like three or four of these write ups 60 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 3: a week, just again team by team, what's happening, who's 61 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 3: hitting well, who's doing poorly? Is there any new platoon forming? 62 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 3: Is there playing time issues popping up? And it's just 63 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 3: a constant. It's almost like just daily. It's like a 64 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 3: daily concept of it's a daily grind. 65 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: It really is. 66 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 3: Because I've stopped doing it every day because some of 67 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 3: it gets redundant. 68 00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 2: So I do. 69 00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 3: That's why I try to get two three day chunks, 70 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 3: because you'd be surprised how much changes in a two 71 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 3: to three day period between injuries. Between this guy's oh 72 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 3: suddenly he went from starting every day vers lefties to 73 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 3: now he's only started one of three. And these are 74 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 3: types of things that we keep an eye on and 75 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 3: really focus on and discuss how this input, how these 76 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 3: can have this fallout in your fantasy lapse and maybe 77 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 3: you should make us add to your team or drop 78 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 3: this player, or maybe throw them on your bench stashing 79 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 3: for a little bit, because this trade inline has been 80 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 3: a big focus of mine in these write ups because 81 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 3: so much has set the change, and. 82 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: We're going to talk a lot about a lot about 83 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: this doctor. Glenn shout out and says, who is even 84 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 1: Joey P I need one of those. I can't be 85 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: like Chrissy Dubbs. That doesn't quite work have the same 86 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: ring to it. And I appreciate Wonky as she says, 87 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: I prefer my host to have hair and shout out 88 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: to Wonky too. The pleasant surprise as the football crew 89 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: just completely ditched us and I was ready to go 90 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: full board with some of the show sheet and Wonky 91 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: had a bunch of stuff ready. So I want to 92 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: give a big shout out to Kelly for doing all 93 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: of that, and you will see Wonky on Wednesday for everybody. 94 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: Let's get into all the stuff here for the day, 95 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: all of the craziness, because we actually have a weekend 96 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: to cover and the trade deadline is thirty hours away 97 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: something like that, twenty eight hours away. But we had 98 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: the one big massive trade and a little bit of 99 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: pokey pokey me here, Curly, and you weren't here for 100 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: this obviously, But everybody in the chat should know one 101 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 1: thing I do get. I do not get to have 102 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: a hat tip of fran miil Reyis, as I have 103 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: been reminded about this year, but I do get a 104 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 1: hat tip about my takes on the trade deadline and 105 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: the Seattle Mariners, because the Mariners made a big trade 106 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: over the weekend, and I had been saying Joe kept asking, 107 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: oh trade trades, and I kept saying, I think the 108 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: Mariners need to strike first, they need to go. Luis 109 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: Castillo was one of those names. I think that was 110 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: literally what he asked before we left on Friday, Hey, 111 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: who should? Maybe it was Thursday? Who should? Or where 112 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 1: should Luis Castillo go? I said, I think the Mariners 113 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: make sense. I think they should strike first before the market, 114 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: and that is exactly what they did. And they shocked 115 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: a lot of people by moving to wel Vi Marte, 116 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: which is a huge Di Dynasty piece. They also moved 117 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: Edwin a Royo was actually a really big trade. I 118 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: broke it down over on the Prospect one podcast if 119 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: you guys want to hear it for the Reds and 120 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: what the Reds are looking like now. But Carlin, I 121 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: want to ask you Luis Castillo, not a lot of 122 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: wins are actually going to talk about that here in 123 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: just a little bit A struggling offense with Cincinnati, the 124 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 1: stuff is there. Do you see a big fantasy uptick 125 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: now that he is over and he is with the 126 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: Seattle Mariners that are fighting and they're in contention, maybe 127 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: a better ballpark, some better offense. What type of fantasy 128 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: uptick do you see Luis Castillo as a Mariner? 129 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 3: Now? 130 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 2: I think you hit right on. It is first off 131 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 2: this year. 132 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 3: Specifically, oddly enough, over his career from what I saw Castillo, 133 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 3: who's era was actually worse on the road. 134 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 2: I don't know how you manage that one. 135 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, better ballpark, better 136 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 3: team context, more chances for wins, which is a category 137 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 3: in some fantasy in most fantasy formats, even points leagues 138 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 3: where wins get you like what seven points depend on 139 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 3: your format, five points whatever. 140 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 2: I think it'll really helps all around. 141 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 3: This year alone, he has like a one and a 142 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 3: half ur difference between his home and road splits too, 143 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 3: So it's there's nothing not to like here, you know everything, 144 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 3: it's all arrows pointing up. 145 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's it's something that I'm pretty happy about. 146 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: I'm happy with the move, especially if you're a Luis 147 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: Castillo owner. I would, I would feel really good about it. 148 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: There's also something you could throw out to say that, like, 149 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: if you were to own Luis Castillo, that trade move 150 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: when he hasn't had a start yet really could get 151 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: a solid return in a dynasty if you're not quite 152 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: in it. This is a big boost to his dynasty value. 153 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: Why you hold and you don't move off of talented 154 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: players that might have some weird struggles and I don't know, 155 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 1: even into redraft, if you're wanting to mix stuff up, 156 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: if you're doing really good on the sp side. It's 157 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 1: something that you can take a look at, and huge 158 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: move for the Mariners. I wonder if they're done. I 159 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 1: kind of don't think they're done. I think there's got 160 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 1: to be something else in the works. It does not 161 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 1: look like it's going to be one Soto. Been reports 162 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: out that the Soda Sweepstakes is down to three teams, 163 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: though I am waiting for the crucial fourth team, mystery team. 164 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: There's always mystery team that has joined in. The current 165 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: sweepstakes participants are the Padres, Cardinals, and Dodgers Corilin I 166 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: have been very vocal about the Padres being the team 167 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: for over a month, even when it wasn't. The Cardinals 168 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: seem to kind of maybe have the best mixture that 169 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: fits with them, and I think you never count out 170 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: the Dodgers. It's something. I actually created a Dodger Soto 171 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: trade on itl Fantasy Baseball the other day. So does 172 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: one Soto get traded in the next twenty four hours 173 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: and to whom. 174 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 3: I can't believe for having this discussion, but I do 175 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 3: think he gets dealt because I think they're desperate to 176 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 3: move some of these They're trying to offload Corbin with them. 177 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 3: That contract is horrendous, and I think they're going to 178 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 3: have to offload that contract in order to justify trading 179 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 3: Soda in the first place, because realistically, Soto is gonna, 180 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 3: you know, the money it's gonna take to resign them, 181 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 3: the hall that it's gonna take to obtain them. There 182 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 3: is no such thing as a big enough return I 183 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 3: think for a jan Soda, because Won Soto is what 184 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 3: you hope all these prospects even become a third of 185 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So I think the Padres 186 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 3: ultimately do have the best chances. And I'll say that 187 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 3: because they have Abrams and Ruiz, two guys right now 188 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 3: for some reason are called up and aren't even playing. 189 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 3: But there's still two of the top prospects in this 190 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 3: in this organization they get thrown up. 191 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 2: They have the depth to make this move. Not to mention, I'm. 192 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 3: Starting to get the idea that they don't care for 193 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 3: their prospects. I mean, you don't call up Abrams. No 194 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 3: other team in the major leagues would probably call up 195 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 3: Abrams in Ruiz and just to sit them on the 196 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 3: bench or platoon them. But the Padres have and they've 197 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 3: done it in favor of guys like Mazara, guys like Voight, 198 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 3: gets Dh Hosmer, all these guys. That's like, why are 199 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 3: these guys getting in the way of these young, potentially 200 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 3: potential studs or young guys that have all this upside 201 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 3: that produce at the highest levels of the miners aren't 202 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 3: even getting a chance to play even somewhat regularly in 203 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 3: the majors. 204 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 2: So it almost makes sense that the way it. 205 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 3: Appears the Padres view their top prospects would be why 206 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 3: they would be so willing to ship them off and 207 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 3: include others in this deal to go get a Wan Sodo, 208 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 3: a guy that is better than a other prospects plus 209 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 3: will slot right into a need for them and produce 210 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 3: right And though that lineup. 211 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, funny. A couple funny things. I'm actually undergoing this 212 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: thing I do on my In This League Patreon In 213 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: This League dot com. It's called the p one ADP 214 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 1: mocks and it's designed to create a prospect ADP which 215 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,319 Speaker 1: does not exist. And it's a value chart as well, 216 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: so I think it's really valuable. People want to check 217 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: it out that they're literally being drafted right now. It'll 218 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: be on the Patreon this month. But a funny thing 219 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 1: just to this point was we found CJ. Abrams was 220 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: actually still in the system. He's the only one that's 221 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: in the system because he had met requirements of being 222 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: on the roster but not overpass the at baths marker 223 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: where he lose prospect eligibility. He's the only one of 224 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: all those guys he's been around so long that he 225 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: has been on the roster so much he still has 226 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: not got the at bats that takes him off of 227 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: roster qualifications. The value system that they have on him 228 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 1: and where they have put him and the chances to 229 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: succeed have been really minimal. There was a tweet out 230 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: about ten fifteen minutes ago from MLB Network with a 231 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: hypothetical on Soto, and it's pretty much what we've talked 232 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 1: about on this show for the last couple of weeks. 233 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: Soto for Abrams, Mackenzie Gore, Robert Hassel, James Wood, who 234 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: is their number three prospect, and Jackson Merrill, who a 235 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: side note, James Wood and Jackson Merril are best friends 236 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: and like when Wood was rehabbing, Meryll was also rehabing, 237 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: they would like watch each other play out here in 238 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: complex blah blah, blah, it doesn't matter. That's a huge 239 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: prospect Hall. I don't think another team can really necessarily 240 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: compete with that prospect Hall. But the key is going 241 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: to be do they want those major league guys? And 242 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: that's where the Dodgers provide the pitching side, and the 243 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: Cardinals I think provide the hitting side, and guys like 244 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: Gorman and Dylan Carlson if they were to be provided, 245 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: if they were to come out there. So it'll be 246 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 1: really really interesting to see. There's some other trade rumors 247 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: going on. Montes is a target for the Padres, Twins, Yankees, 248 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: and Blue Jays. I saw John Hayman report last night 249 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: that the Yankees their sole focus is on Frank Montas. 250 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: The Astros are looking at Christian Vasquez in addition to 251 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: Wilson Contreras. I have been putting Wilson Contreras on with 252 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,959 Speaker 1: the Astros for the last couple of weeks. I think 253 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 1: maybe pedro Leone would make sense, even though I know 254 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: it's a rental. The Guardians have inquired about Sean Murphy. 255 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: The A's are making him available. They're making all the 256 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 1: guys available, and the Phillies are interested in Ramon Lariano. 257 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: So the A's are going to have a complete, just 258 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 1: decimation of their roster. Do you expect any surprises? Just 259 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 1: real quick at the trade ladline, do you think we're 260 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: going to see anything nuts and crazy? As someone we 261 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: haven't been talking about. My biggest crazy suggestion has been, 262 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: if Juan Soto gets traded today on Monday, I expect 263 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: Shohiel Tani to be traded on Tuesday. If it comes 264 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: down to the wire, I'm gonna kind of put it 265 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 1: as a fifty to fifty. But it's just my little 266 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: prediction is if Soto has moved on Monday, Otani has 267 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: moved on Tuesday. I don't know if that's that much 268 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: of a shock. But Mike, do you expect any shocks 269 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: in the next thirty hours? 270 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 3: I think if there's to be one, it's gonna it's 271 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 3: kind of a cop out because I have a hard 272 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 3: time giving a true name, but I would I would 273 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 3: think it could be a guy that was signed to 274 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 3: a deal that people maybe we're surprised the deal happened. 275 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 3: Like a hobby Baye is habby Baya is for for 276 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 3: the Tigers, a team that doesn't similar they're going to 277 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 3: be competing in the near future, although maybe they think 278 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 3: their window might be next year the year after. Maybe 279 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,199 Speaker 3: they realized because they've already talked about pretty much everyone 280 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 3: being on the table. Maybe Hobby Bias is like one 281 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 3: of those guys that's like, well, you know what, maybe 282 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 3: this was a mistake. Let's see if we can salvage 283 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 3: this and see if the team team will take them on. 284 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 2: Maybe I doubt Chris Bryant. 285 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 3: But maybe that's the type of thing, like maybe one 286 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 3: of these guys, if Trevor Story was healthy with the 287 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 3: Red Sox kind of leaning towards being buyers and sellers. 288 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,559 Speaker 3: The reports say both, and that they never mentioned Story 289 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 3: being safe. They've mentioned, you know, Bogarts by name, at 290 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 3: least I haven't seen their reports, but they've mentioned Bogart's 291 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 3: by name and others by name, Dev's they are safe. 292 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 3: So it's like maybe one of these offseason signings that 293 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 3: were surprising in the first place, Marcus Stroman, guys that 294 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 3: were on teams that like, okay, this is weird that 295 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 3: they made these signings become trade bait for these teams 296 00:12:58,640 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 3: all of a sudden. 297 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: Maybe by goes back to the Mets something to throw. 298 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: Maybe you know, they rEFInd him there, Dan, this is 299 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: actually a good question. Well, the trades trade away a catcher, 300 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: they should. I think Danny Jansen should be someone they're 301 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: putting out on the market who would make a ton 302 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: of sense. Bring Gabriel moreno back up to go with 303 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: Ali hndro Kirk. Trade from your strengths as much as 304 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: possible to fix some of those weaknesses. Because the Blue 305 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: Jas are not really tied with anybody, So that's actually 306 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: a really good question. I think they should. Finishing up 307 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 1: the headlines, Aaron Judge continues to be the biggest beast 308 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: on the planet. His I was saying this yesterday. His 309 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: stats through July thirty first, our stats for an entire 310 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 1: season that every single player would kill for and we'd 311 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 1: get them all the money in the world. Judge homer 312 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: three times over the weekend, now up to forty two, 313 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: which is ten below his career high set in twenty seventeen. 314 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: And here is a marker I want to give you 315 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: as well. Aaron Judge has more homers than any single 316 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 1: person in our home run contest. And we've had the season. 317 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: Every single day of baseball, we have been able to 318 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,199 Speaker 1: make picks on these guys and Aaron Judge has more 319 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: homers in real life than we could just picking players 320 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 1: every single day. That's pretty fun. And then then lastly 321 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 1: Clay Holmes blew a save, giving up a three run 322 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: homer to South President the ninth as they lost eight 323 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: to six, and my dreams and hopes of Clay Holmes 324 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: being the closer down the drain some injuries. Chris Bryant 325 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: left Saturday's game with foot pain. Curly, I'm out on 326 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: Chris Bryan. I've been saying, I'm pretty far out on 327 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: Chris Bryant. Do you have hopes of salvaging the rest 328 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: of this season for him? Which has just been really 329 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: about a month he's had about a month that worked. 330 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: All of his homers I think came in the month 331 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: of July, if I remember correctly. Do you have any 332 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: hopes on the back half of this year? 333 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 3: I did until I think reports came out that he's 334 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 3: been dealing with like planter fasciitis over the like of 335 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 3: late I think since the All Star break or so. 336 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 2: I remember reading about it yesterday and dealing with that. 337 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 3: You know how that can be for athletes in general, 338 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 3: doesn't matter the sport, and that could hinder his progress 339 00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 3: the rest of the year, and I was really hopef 340 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 3: But you know what this reminds me of. It's the 341 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 3: whole Daniel Murphy deal, like twenty nineteen and wherever it 342 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 3: was when Murphy went over to the Rockies, the. 343 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 2: Hype build the hype built up. 344 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 3: It was a similar skill set in terms of being 345 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 3: like a really solid bat just going to Coors again, 346 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 3: a chance to really exploit course for what it was, 347 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 3: and injuries derailed them. Age Duriel Murphy obviously not a 348 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 3: direct comp but it was one of those things where 349 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 3: it's like I bought in preseason. I was like, all right, cool, 350 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 3: I'm gonna jump his adp up. I got him in 351 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 3: a few spots. I was really happy, and then early 352 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 3: drafts I was even happier. I was like, sweet, I 353 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 3: got him at the discount. I was happy to take 354 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 3: them near a pick like eighty ish. I think it 355 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 3: was early on and because just because the skill set, 356 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 3: But ultimately it's me trying to justify why I took 357 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 3: him early. Well, at the end of the day, it 358 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 3: seems like it feels like a busted pick, and I 359 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 3: don't seem much. 360 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: Do you think he's a sell like at all costs 361 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: type of thing, because I think obviously it's a sell, 362 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: but you get trade deadlines happening. I just had a 363 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: trade deadline end in the Scott White League that I 364 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: play in. But some are going to go through. I 365 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: think some standards on a lot of side of like 366 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: August thirteenth, I want to say, right in that range 367 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 1: is like a general fantasy trade deadline. If you had 368 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: a team poking around want to take a shot, is 369 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 1: there a low that you wouldn't take on Chris Bryant 370 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: at this point. 371 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 3: I would I'd be willing to. I definitely redraft. I'd 372 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 3: be looking to sell for sure. Dynasty, I'd actually if 373 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 3: you're a contender or if your windows next year, I 374 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 3: think he's a great buy if you can right now, 375 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 3: because I do think the value is dropping even though 376 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 3: we know a healthy Chris Bryant can be pretty solid, 377 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 3: and I do think he'll get right in the offseason, 378 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 3: and you know, Chris Bryant has these moments of like 379 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 3: being injured, playing well, but maybe he'll miss some time 380 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 3: next year or whatever. Dynasty lees, I think he's more 381 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 3: of a bye redraft. 382 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 2: That's tough. 383 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 3: I think I would obviously at this point, if someone's 384 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 3: willing to give me anything that can help my team, 385 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 3: I would probably sell. I'd be willing to sell seventy 386 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 3: five per cents on the dollar type of deal probably 387 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 3: right now. 388 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: I think so Zark is a trade for Chris Bryant 389 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: threw weeks ago. It wasn't too much better. I really 390 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: really do Bobby Witt. The day after Julio Rodriguez was 391 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: hit on the wrist, which I want to point out 392 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: around the hand. Scott Bogman was at that game and 393 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: I told him for for handcock rules, he's no longer 394 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: around him because he hurt him. The day after, Bobby 395 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: Wit Junior was sidelined after getting hit on the hand 396 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 1: by a pitch. No xt rays have been done as 397 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: of yet, which is probably a good sign. Not so 398 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 1: great for Hulia Rodriguez though the X rays were negative. 399 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,159 Speaker 1: He had some swelling and they put him on the 400 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: EL so he's on the IL for a tiny bit. 401 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 1: Bobby Wit no necessarily no necessary sign of it yet. 402 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: Miguel Sino back to his home, which is the IL 403 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: on Friday with knee issues. He just lives there and 404 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 1: Key Brian Hayes, Eric cosmer Typrance, Tyler O'Neill, all considered 405 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 1: day to day with various injuries across the board. Here's 406 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: a fun fact getting back to the top of the show. 407 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 1: This is an amazing one too, and this is kudos 408 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 1: Towonke for putting this on Red's pitcher. Luis Castillo is 409 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: one of just seven pitchers to enter the All Star 410 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: Break with an ERA under two eight and no more 411 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 1: than three wins with at least thirteen starts on here 412 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: the others? Are you ready for the others? Here? Clayton 413 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: Kershaw twenty eighteen, Jeff Samarga fourteen, by Lecky in nineteen 414 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: ninety two, Steve Carlton in nineteen eighty five, Swan in 415 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy eight, and Phoebus in nineteen seventy. I don't know. 416 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 1: I'm assuming that's Phoebus, like a little phoenix in there. 417 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,160 Speaker 1: Those are the names. There hasn't been anybody since twenty 418 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,239 Speaker 1: eighteen and since two and since two thousand there's only 419 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: been two Jeff Samarga and Clayton Kershaw. The undervalue of 420 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: potential wins is mind blowing on Luis Castillo. That is 421 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: why you hit home like this is a huge plus 422 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 1: for him being in Seattle. This is a huge potential 423 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 1: plus on wins. Let's get Julio Rodriguez back. Though it 424 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 1: might be the most important thing of all of those 425 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 1: this day in baseball, I thought this was just interesting, 426 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 1: though not like fascinating. Nineteen forty three Rip Suol of 427 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: the Pirates throws his do drop ball in a game. 428 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: Souel loops the ball eighteen to twenty feet high on 429 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 1: its way to the strike zone. Later it's called a 430 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 1: blooper or an ethis ball. The pitch is more than 431 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: a gag and Soul is on his way to a 432 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: twenty win season. But an eighteen to twenty foot dip 433 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: that's like curveball stuff, Curlin like I love, I love 434 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: the idea of that. That is actually one of my 435 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 1: only things I think I really really love about old 436 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: old time baseball. I don't have the tradition like a 437 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: lot of other people with most of this stuff, but 438 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: like weird just wind ups and just video game like 439 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 1: backyard type of throws. It is one of my favorite things. 440 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: Like I get really locked into you know those Instagram 441 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 1: videos of like, hey, this is the best game to 442 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 1: play and it's like that whiffle ball game, but the 443 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 1: ball like curves and they got I'm such a sucker 444 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 1: for that. Like those type of video game things are 445 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: my favorite thing on the planet. Just goofy looking pitches, and. 446 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 3: Every so often we actually get pictures at the major 447 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 3: league level it looks like those whiffleball pitches, Like that's 448 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 3: the maze sink two seamer sinker. Everyone call it his 449 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 3: that frisbee. It's more difficult than it is whiffable. I 450 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 3: think I saw shout out to and someone put that 451 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:02,159 Speaker 3: was like word for word. Ryan Nancy on Twitter tweeted that. 452 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 3: I was like, that's very true. We're about to see 453 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 3: all these gifts of them. But he doesn't usually miss 454 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 3: a lot of bats with it. But yeah, it's fun though, 455 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 3: because MLB pitchers, man, they've really and coaches obviously really 456 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 3: figured out how to make a baseball moving ways that 457 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 3: I never thought i'd see the day that they do that, 458 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 3: you know you're going as fast as they are. 459 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: Who has the most giveable pitch in baseball? Because you 460 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 1: just bring up a really interesting thing to me, I 461 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: would say, Dustin May is that two seamer. Emmanuel Clasi's 462 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: cutter has got to be in there. That one pitch 463 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,959 Speaker 1: by Aaron Ashby, which I think was a two seamer 464 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: that won this year, that went like whoop, like right 465 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 1: out was on there. I don't know if I think 466 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: of any breaking pitches though, a really good knuckling curveball. 467 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 3: Is there a good change up like with with good 468 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 3: fade away from like last year already? 469 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: Like okay, but can you think like I'm gonna say, 470 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 1: you think someone Yeah, like I'm talking like a specific 471 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 1: pitch from Devin Williams. Oh, Devin Williams his uh whatever 472 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:01,199 Speaker 1: you call it, the terminator or whatever. Yeah, okay, so 473 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 1: this would be such a great pull Devin Williams whatever 474 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,880 Speaker 1: the pitch is, dominator, Emmanuel Classe's cutter or Dustin May's 475 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,679 Speaker 1: two seamer which people probably forget about. And that's what 476 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,959 Speaker 1: Brad and Brad's right here immediately went Devin Williams, change up. 477 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 1: I'm curious that the chat. If you guys have any others, 478 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 1: tell me who's the most gifable pitch and pitcher the 479 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 1: pitcher with their pitch I would love I would love 480 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: to know, because the Devin Williams is a really really 481 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,479 Speaker 1: good one. Manuel Classe is the first person that came 482 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: to my mind when I thought about that. Let's go 483 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,159 Speaker 1: through some stat heroes on the weekend. Jaco to Rizzy. 484 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: How often do you say Jaycotrizzy is a stat hero 485 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 1: seven innings, eight strikeouts, giving up only two hits for Houston. 486 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: Plante eight with eight strikeouts. Merril Kelly seven innings, eight strikeouts, 487 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: three hits, a couple walks. I think he should be 488 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: a potential trade bait guy. Read debtmer seven innings, twelve strikeouts, 489 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: giving up one and run and Carlos Forradon ten strikeouts 490 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: on seven is read Debt Meer's fixed curling. 491 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, everything I'm seeing on Twitter A lot of guys 492 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 3: that follow pitching way more closely than I do. I'll 493 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 3: be the first to admit hitting my strength in terms 494 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 3: of analysis. 495 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 2: But it looks like it. 496 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: Man. 497 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 3: You just look at some of the stuff, the changing 498 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 3: pitch mix, the changing movement profile and some of the pitches. 499 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,479 Speaker 3: It's it's everyone's talking about it, and I think this 500 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 3: is the detmos we're all hoping for come, you know, 501 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 3: when we're all kind of hyping him up preseason type 502 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 3: of thing, and he's hitting on that potential. Now, what 503 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 3: will always hold him back in fantasy is obviously the 504 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 3: lack of two start weeks given the Angels always going 505 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 3: six man in the rotation, but that could change if 506 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 3: they do. You mentioned if Otani's on the move, they 507 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 3: maybe they go five man and Detmvers gains even more value. 508 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 3: But I do think the Detmors we're seeing now is 509 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 3: there's something to it. Maybe he won't sustain this level, 510 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 3: as you know MLB teams adapt, but he is. 511 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 2: What he's doing seems very real. 512 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he's a movement command guy. He's not 513 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 1: a huge, big, crazy blowaway stuff guy, and he's found 514 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: his command. I mean he you know what, Dept. Meer's 515 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: has got some big, old loopy curveball sliders that he throws. 516 00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 1: Some others by the way, that got thrown in here. 517 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 1: Riley said, brash is slider. That's a great one. That 518 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,880 Speaker 1: is a super gift of a one. Brad said, Seth 519 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 1: Lugo's curveball. Okay, I'll give you that one, that's for sure. 520 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 1: Let's see I thought I saw, oh, and Walker's right. 521 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: This was the other one that I thought of immediately 522 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 1: was that was the older school Kershaw twelve to six curveball. Like, 523 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: nothing gets me going. I love crazy wiffleball looking pitches, 524 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: but nothing gets me out of my seat and makes 525 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 1: me act like a crazy person than a knee buckling 526 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: change up. I'll just oh, you know, it's just like 527 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 1: a gift. Like the guys are like, oh, like, that's 528 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: what gets me. It happens when I see just a 529 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: knee buckling twelve to six curveball. So I completely agree 530 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: with that one. On the hitter side, Alec Bohm four 531 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 1: for five this weekend with a homer and RBI. Corey 532 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: Dickerson went three for four with a homer. James Outman 533 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: had a home run in his major league debut. I 534 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: saw him in the Arizona Fall League. I don't know 535 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 1: if there's a ton Ton there. Him and Large Newbar 536 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 1: both played together. I thought new Bar was much more 537 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 1: impressive player. But three for four with a homer, there's 538 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 1: a little something there. I just don't believe the Dodgers 539 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: would give him enough time. I believe someone asked in 540 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 1: the chat. Hunter renfro Good four for four with a bomb. 541 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 1: Anthony Rizzo had a homer with three RBIs. Anthony Santander 542 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,159 Speaker 1: had a homer three for four. Ramon Lariano before he 543 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 1: gets traded, had a bomb, jerks and pro far Charles 544 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: l Block and Matt Chapman with a homer over the weekend. 545 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 1: Some stat zeros, I never like to see my boy 546 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,120 Speaker 1: Shae McClanahan in here. But he went four and one third, 547 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: give me up seven hits, five earned runs. He had 548 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: three walks, only five four strikeouts, Pablo Lopez. A lot 549 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 1: of rumors. Craig mischs had actually you're wearing your Marlins hat. 550 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 1: Curlin Mish had talked about the last start maybe being 551 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:43,120 Speaker 1: his last one and had speculated again about him getting traded. Well, 552 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: he got lit two and two thirds, twelve hits, six 553 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 1: earned runs. What type just quickly Pabolo Lopez getting traded 554 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: and what would a return have to look like? Do 555 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: you think for your Marlins? 556 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 3: Well, I think the Marlins have what like two or 557 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 3: three years left of control too, so that that's like 558 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 3: a big there's gonna be. It's not gonna be obviously 559 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 3: the level of a Montas or Castillo, but you gotta 560 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 3: think it's gonna at least bring back a solid like 561 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 3: at least one solid prospect, one upper top tier prospect, 562 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 3: from a system and maybe a couple. You know, I 563 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,359 Speaker 3: don't think he's going to bring back like you know what, 564 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 3: what did Castillo bringing like two. 565 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 2: Or three other top five prospects back in return? 566 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 3: I think, I think I think Pablo uh Sandoval, WHOA. 567 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 2: I don't think. 568 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 1: I don't think Bubo Sanaval would be good in the trade. 569 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 1: But know what mean, Yeah, Pablo Lopez. 570 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 3: Sandoval is way better than Pablo Lopez obviously, but Pablo 571 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 3: Lopez I think would bring back at least one high 572 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 3: end prospect, maybe a second, depending on what teams get 573 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 3: involved in, how desperate team gets if they miss out 574 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 3: in both Castillo and Montas, so that right there, the 575 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 3: market could right there push itself up. But Lopez is 576 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,360 Speaker 3: a solid real life pitcher as well as fantasy. 577 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:51,880 Speaker 2: He will give you innings. 578 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 3: The shoulders always concerned, but it's ull up this year 579 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 3: and again that those years of control really matter and 580 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 3: it should bring back quality versus quantity. 581 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 2: But it's also the Marlins. I don't know what to 582 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 2: expect anymore. 583 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 3: They don't exactly develop hitting well either, So I'm optimistically 584 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 3: they get some hitting prospects, but they haven't been able 585 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 3: to develop the hitting. 586 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 2: The best over the years. So I don't know how 587 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 2: much yeasty to. 588 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 1: Me to cut you off. I feel like the Yankees 589 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,479 Speaker 1: are the key for them. Yankees are trying to move 590 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 1: all to Oswell Praza and a lot of trades. No 591 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 1: one will take that Oswal Praza for Pablo Lopez would 592 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: just make all the sense in the world. But you 593 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: know him getting lit up could always theoretically hurt the 594 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: trade value. 595 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 3: J D. 596 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: Brewbaker, I'll give up seven earned runs as well. On 597 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 1: the hitting side, of course, I took a Goldie weekend. 598 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 1: He went over five for three strikeouts. Hear me, Cole Calhoun, 599 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: oh for three three strikeouts, Hilliard and Andrews both with 600 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: three k's as well. Friendos Oh, you know what, I 601 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: didn't even look if they're everyone's going to be so 602 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 1: mad if there's a brand new board, and I don't 603 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: think there is so Unfortunately, I can't give you guys 604 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 1: good news that there's a brand new home run board. 605 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:01,400 Speaker 1: But we have the same We have the exact same winner. 606 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: Things have not changed. But the night King of the 607 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,120 Speaker 1: North is mounting a comeback, as he had a Kyle 608 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:10,120 Speaker 1: schwarber Baum over the weekend got him up to thirty five, 609 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 1: so high Cubby twenty sixteen still has thirty seven. Night 610 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 1: King North has thirty five, and we got it. Let's 611 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: see Eskyl and de Blum at thirty four, and then 612 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: the crew just kind of moves down. Mike Mayer is 613 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,199 Speaker 1: still on the list, so apologies. I'll see if we 614 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: can get the home run board back here into the 615 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: near future so you guys can see that. But we 616 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 1: still got our main guy, and they do not have 617 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 1: as many homers as Aaron Judge.

I'm gonna give you the 630 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,879 Speaker 1: number one total base prop and the number one strikeout 631 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: prop according to Bettingpros dot com. They have their MLB 632 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: prop cheat sheet, which I think is invaluable. Go and 633 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: check it out, and I'm gonna give you the top props, 634 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna give you two. I like the top 635 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: prop over at the as Joe would say, the sugar 636 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: house is Jordan Alvarez. Jordan Alvarez total bases versus Boston 637 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: Fantasy Pros hasn't projected at almost four and you get 638 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: plus money at one and a half. That's a pretty 639 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: good bet plus money one oh five. The top strikeout 640 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: prop is Andrew Heeney under last week man four and 641 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: a half. I took it. He was on a pitch count, 642 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: he got to four. He would have destroyed it if 643 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: he wasn't gonna only throw sixty pitches. They're projecting five. 644 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: The number is six and a half on fan duel 645 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 1: and that is the un or. It's pretty juice stuff though. 646 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: The two players I like Drake's Scooble strikeouts those are 647 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,479 Speaker 1: at five and a half minus one fifteen. And this 648 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: is probably my favorite bed of the day is Starling 649 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: Marte total bases minus one oh five. It's almost even money. 650 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: It's against Patrick Corbin. I believe in the month of July, 651 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: Starling Marte had eleven multi hit games multi hit games, 652 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: So the odds are in his favor, and they really 653 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 1: always are whenever Patrick Corbin is on the slate. Couple 654 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: DFS stuff. You know, Joe's huge on the DFS side. 655 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: On DK A couple pitchers, I might want to take 656 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: a look at Susier is gonna be your big play. 657 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: He's ten point six. Drake Scouble I like the strikeouts. 658 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: I believe it's Minnesota and he's eight thousand. I think 659 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 1: that would be a really great pairing that you could 660 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,479 Speaker 1: put together over on FanDuel A couple pitching prices eleven 661 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: point six for Sersier, John Gray is at ten and 662 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: Scooble is nine point eight. If you're looking to get 663 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: some stacks together, Mets, Mets meet, the Mets meet, the 664 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: Mets gonna hit up Patrick Corbin, and then I can't 665 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 1: say other, you know, inappropriate things about Patrick corbyan that 666 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 1: would happen there Mets. I would stack them Guardians and 667 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 1: White Sox would be my three stacks. Those are also 668 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 1: very heavy on implied run totals today if you want 669 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 1: to tag those teams. Mister Kurlin, we have a home 670 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: run contest. You have not been here all season, so 671 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: I can't necessarily annoint that this would be worth forty points. 672 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: So you're immediately in the discussion. But please give us 673 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: your home run call for the day. Put our people 674 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: in a good position. Who do you got You're muted? 675 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 3: You're muted, of course, I am. I had to do 676 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 3: one rookie mistake before this show ended. 677 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: Ninety five percent of the show in you were nailing it. 678 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 1: You were perfect. Nothing, you were This is the last thing. 679 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: This is the last thing. 680 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 3: I love it, all right, what's you that's sleepy ca 681 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 3: coming out right there? 682 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 2: It's the obvious, it's it has to be done. 683 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 3: But I mean, you're talking about a guy who's coming 684 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 3: off a weekend they just had, having his career year, 685 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 3: gonna get signed to a massive contract, and it has 686 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 3: to be Aaron Judge, right. I mean, he has a 687 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 3: nine to fifty one ohps against lefties. He's gets to 688 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 3: face Mark Gonzalez, which you know, soft tossing lefty. 689 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 2: As as we all know, like it's it just makes sense. 690 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 2: I don't see how. 691 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 3: No one's slowing him down right now, and one thing 692 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,479 Speaker 3: that's gonna slow him down is not playing tonight. 693 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 2: So I got you gotta go with the obvious at this. 694 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:20,959 Speaker 1: Point, Yeah, Brad's ass. Does Judge have a shot at 695 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 1: the record? Bonds had forty five homers at the end 696 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: of July in two thousand and one. We're not that 697 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: far off, my friend, we are not that far off. 698 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Pete Anzo. I'm gonna go against 699 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: Patrick Corbin. Give me big bombs on Pete Alonzo. I'd 700 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: be comfortable with a total base marker in him as well, 701 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna go with the leadoff guy. I'm gonna 702 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 1: go with the guy at the top of the lineup 703 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: with the New York Mets against Patrick Corbyn. But I 704 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: am super super comfortable with Pete Alonzo in both of 705 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: those and he will be my home run call. I 706 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 1: know Joe has Aaron Judge in perpetuity. I see.
