I am the Welsh. 0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:23.439 That is Casey Bubba Bubba. I do have a new nickname. 0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:27.720 It is Welsh aka best friends with Cormyn Carroll. No 0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:29.200 big deal, We're just best friends. 0:00:29.400 --> 0:00:30.880 It seemed that way from the pictures I saw. 0:00:30.960 --> 0:00:33.040 We didn't see you know your feet, so you must 0:00:33.080 --> 0:00:35.639 have passed the test there and that was good. Look 0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:38.480 you look so happy, yet you can tell you're holding 0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:39.479 back so much emotion in that. 0:00:39.880 --> 0:00:43.000 I hated it. I hate I'm the I'm the single 0:00:43.080 --> 0:00:45.920 worst picture taker because it's like, I mean, I get 0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:47.760 my face in general is just a problem. But I'll 0:00:47.760 --> 0:00:50.080 have like this face not good for podcasting. But then 0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:53.559 I take a picture and I'm like ah yeah, And 0:00:53.600 --> 0:00:55.080 then I look at the picture and I'm like why 0:00:55.200 --> 0:00:57.520 was I doing that? It's like the worst face. 0:00:57.600 --> 0:01:00.040 What do you do? Are you? 0:00:59.800 --> 0:00:59.840 Like? 0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:01.800 People ask me what my good side is, Like I 0:01:01.840 --> 0:01:03.560 don't have a good side. It's just round there's no. 0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:07.000 Side, so the good side is me not in it. 0:01:07.080 --> 0:01:09.640 That's the one, but me holding the camera. There we go. 0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:14.520 Yeah, it was very fun regaled with stories. Corby Carroll 0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:16.880 is even better than I mean. I've been around him 0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:19.560 a couple of times, but this was a very particularly 0:01:19.680 --> 0:01:23.720 great one. The first instance of being around him, Dennis 0:01:23.720 --> 0:01:26.880 Sidler from Sidsgraf soho you should check out? Dennis asked 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:30.240 him like, can you even walk around anymore? And he's like, oh, yeah, 0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:32.399 I could walk around. And he's like, you can go 0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:34.520 round a target and you you know it's not you're 0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:37.120 getting Babardi. He's like, no, not really, and he's like, 0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:39.959 oh that's funny because there I drove by and there 0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:41.600 was a billboard with you on it and he was like, 0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:44.360 oh really. And I was like, oh, you silly, Gorbyn Carroll. 0:01:44.640 --> 0:01:46.840 You don't know what you're in for, because it's not 0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:49.640 going to be like this much longer. But we watched 0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:52.760 the Little League World Series. Cormick Carroll was sitting there 0:01:52.800 --> 0:01:56.120 watching these Little League guys play. We talked about the 0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:59.680 White Sox situation. We also talked about cards. We talked 0:01:59.680 --> 0:02:02.880 about cards and his collecting and him pulling an auto 0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:05.480 of himself in a thing. Lots and lots of fun 0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:07.840 stuff with Corbet Carroll, which we could talk about over time, 0:02:08.280 --> 0:02:11.160 but on the Corbyn Carroll front as well. At the 0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:13.119 end of the show, if you're watching on the live 0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:16.800 stream Fantasy Pros MLB YouTube, I'm going to be unveiling 0:02:17.560 --> 0:02:21.119 the helmet. Yes, I have it right here. I'm looking 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:26.080 at it in my possession, the Corbyn Carroll inscribed full 0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:29.520 size helmet for the Home Run champ. We will be 0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:32.160 getting to here in a little bit, so make sure 0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:34.680 you're tuned in and locked in as well.

Mister Buster said, I am beautiful. 0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:51.400 It was not beautiful. It was a pretty your smile, 0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:53.359 it was pretty big. It's pretty. It was just this stupid. 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:56.240 You know what the problem is too. You have like 0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:59.000 a fat face. You just have to You're like like 0:02:59.040 --> 0:03:01.520 trying to put your face out and then like back 0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:03.360 up and you're just like trying to find the right position, 0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:04.960 and then what ends up happening is you look like 0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:07.720 a mongoloid and you're just like ridiculous. 0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:09.320 Preaching to the choir Welsh preaching to the choir. 0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:13.280 Yeah, not too great. It's not too great. So, like 0:03:13.320 --> 0:03:16.000 I said, fill up the chat with some questions and 0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:19.040 we'll we'll start going. But let's get into the stuff 0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:21.720 and the things. My friend X rays have come back 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:26.600 negative on Ronald Acunya's left elbow, thank god. He left 0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:29.320 the game after being hit by a ninety seven mile 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:35.400 per hour fastball, and the Collective Universe went MVP and 0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:38.000 he's okay. It looks like he's okay. I didn't see 0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:40.120 I don't think. I can't imagine he's gona be in 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:41.920 a lineup today. I was actually gonna bet Atlanta, and 0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:43.920 then I was like, m a Kunya out of it. 0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:45.880 I might not play with them today. 0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:48.960 Yeah, it's interesting because I saw the replay and he's 0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:51.560 got the big arm guard on and somehow it went 0:03:51.680 --> 0:03:54.560 underneath the flap that bens on the elbows like the 0:03:55.200 --> 0:03:57.800 joy the luckiest shot in the world. Basically, it was 0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:01.160 like Star wars, but I think he'll be fine. He 0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:04.119 looks fine, apply miss today's game and they'll go from there. 0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:06.000 I think so. I think that's gonna be the case. 0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:07.320 A funny story. I don't know if you heard this 0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:12.160 that the Akunyas Louis son Hell and Ronald have a 0:04:12.200 --> 0:04:16.120 five thousand dollars bet for who steals more bases this year, 0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:20.440 and like not, I kind of like it's it's funny 0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:22.240 when I hear those numbers, because I'm kind of like, 0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:25.760 does Ronald care about that? Like is he invested in 0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:28.360 if it's only like five grand or something like that, 0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:29.960 But he's. 0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:32.480 There's a it's a brotherly bet, so yes, he's an 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:33.080 easy I think. 0:04:33.000 --> 0:04:34.640 It's I feel like it's bigger. Yeah, I don't have 0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:37.080 I don't have a brother, but I feel like the money. 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:38.359 Is needs the money. 0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:40.719 He wants the pride factor when they go meet for 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:43.320 Christmas or something and just to remind him, yeah, big 0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:44.440 brother still owns you. 0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:47.080 That's how Yeah, but I thought it might be a 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:49.080 little bit more. But I get I think Louis son 0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:51.880 Hell is around like forty three, and I think Ronald 0:04:51.960 --> 0:04:53.839 is forty two. I want to say it is I 0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:55.880 think that might be the number. By the way, I 0:04:55.920 --> 0:05:00.800 was laughing here where was it? Wonky? I just lost it. Well, 0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:04.320 Wonky was making yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah here 0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:06.839 it is. Yeah where Welsh looked like ten year old me. 0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:10.320 When I chased Mike Musina into a Hooters for his autograph. 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:12.039 What a how many questions I have in that one sentence. 0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:16.440 There's a lot going on there, walk going on? Yeah, exactly, yeah, 0:05:16.440 --> 0:05:17.560 I mean it was kind of like that. I just 0:05:17.560 --> 0:05:20.760 didn't have to chase him. Luckily, this is a weird 0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:23.039 one that came up to Cody said, Carol looked like 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:25.960 your son. I had multiple people that were like, you 0:05:26.000 --> 0:05:27.640 guys kind of look alike. And I was like, yeah, 0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:31.200 if I'm his, like older, fatter, nothing look alike, brother, 0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:34.280 I suppose. But yeah, there were some people that thought 0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:36.200 that you can find the picture I most liked picture 0:05:36.279 --> 0:05:38.599 of all time by the way, Bubba like almost six 0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:41.200 hundred people. I was like, for a picture, that's crazy. 0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:44.719 But as was talked about in many instances, I talked 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:48.680 to Dennis about this too. My brand has been Corbin 0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:53.320 Carroll this year, like un kind of unintentional, I made 0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:56.760 my brand Corbyn Carroll and it could have gone either way. 0:05:57.839 --> 0:05:59.400 It's been okay, though, I. 0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:01.120 Think it's been like pretty pretty good. 0:06:01.520 --> 0:06:04.080 It's pretty pretty good. We'll get to more here. See 0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:07.200 a couple of questions. Anthony is Jordan Walker a hold, 0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:11.040 he's been so rough? What do you think? Welsh? And Bubba? 0:06:11.120 --> 0:06:13.599 I think Bubba, what do you think? 0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:14.040 Real quick? 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:16.880 Obviously it depends on what your options are. But I've 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:19.240 been telling certain people that he's droppable based on other 0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:22.839 outfield options out there, because between playing time and just 0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:24.960 his overall consistent production is not really there. 0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:26.760 He's gotten better, but he still it's the bother around 0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:27.279 way too much. 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:30.440 Yeah, I think in Redraft Walkey actually said it earlier 0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:33.000 in the chat where it's like, hey, welcome to August ninth, 0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:34.920 when you can pretty much just cut everybody. I think 0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:37.600 there's been little facetious in there, but we are at 0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:40.000 no no, But we are at the point exactly where 0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:43.240 it's like you have to have a quicker trigger finger 0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:46.120 on moves right now. And like I in years and 0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:48.440 years past, I'm still a little bit like this. I 0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:50.760 would always think, like do I want to get rid 0:06:50.839 --> 0:06:52.760 of a guy who like a like a really good player? 0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:54.800 Would you want to get rid of this guy and 0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:58.240 then him turn it around and burn you, or you know, 0:06:58.240 --> 0:06:59.800 would you want to get rid of this guy and 0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:02.080 take the chance on somewhere else in the burning me 0:07:02.320 --> 0:07:05.599 later used to really bother me, and you had to 0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:08.640 drop that years ago where it's like, Okay, this guy stinks. 0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:11.480 Maybe he's gonna improve and get better, but I'm just 0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:13.720 not gonna be here for it anymore. And hopefully you're 0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:15.560 making a calculated move. So that's why you can get 0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:16.640 rid of Jordan Walker. 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:18.280 One hundred percent. The what if games need to go 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:18.960 right about now? 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:21.800 Yeah, yeah, exactly one hundred percent. Leave that for Marvel 0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:27.680 and not for fantasy. Also, Concase asked, is it crazy 0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:29.480 to drop say off for Drew Waters? 0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:31.960 Drew Waters is coming up on the show later, by 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:35.560 the way, I was about to say, I love, but 0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:39.080 I think it's it's a great question to the what 0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:41.800 if we just talked about. Becausea had his moments got heard, 0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:44.000 it's been a real bad grind for him of late. 0:07:44.520 --> 0:07:46.160 The Royals in general are red hot right now, and 0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:48.880 Drew Waters in the month of August hitting like almost 0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:51.400 two eighty with three homers, a couple of steals, it's 0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:51.960 not too bad. 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:55.520 Yeah, I mean I think you can you could drop sayah, 0:07:55.680 --> 0:07:58.880 I'm not sure if I'm in the answer. 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:01.800 Yeah, but like in like deep leagues, I love Waters. 0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:03.640 If you're in shallow leagues, I hope you have better options. 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:06.280 Yeah, exactly right. Would you rather go James Outman or 0:08:06.320 --> 0:08:07.680 Waters Outman is a question there. 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:12.320 He's starting to pick it back up. But yeah, like 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:15.040 Outman has already shown us the skill set on how 0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:16.480 a lead it can be. I mean there was a 0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:20.080 point in that first like six weeks where you know, 0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:22.080 I mean Craig Mish was getting the victory lap because 0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:24.840 Outman looked like he could actually take that Rookie of 0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:26.640 the Year award. He was like number two or three 0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:29.520 in the Yeah. Yeah, So he's already shown us his 0:08:29.520 --> 0:08:31.720 skill set, and if he's coming back up, I want 0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:33.400 to be a part of that, especially with the Dodgers, 0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:35.040 come more news and notes, and then like I said, 0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:36.760 we're gonna be spattering in listener questions. 0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:38.560 There's great questions and keep them coming. 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:40.480 Ye yah, yeah, yeah exactly, I'm gonna I'm gonna try 0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:43.559 to keep marking them worst news. We said it on 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:45.800 the show on Monday. I said, this is exactly where 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:49.679 we were heading in some capacity. UH managers Kevin Cash 0:08:49.720 --> 0:08:54.040 confirmed on Tuesday that Shaye McClanahan is highly unlikely to 0:08:54.160 --> 0:09:00.160 pitch this season. So they said that surgery was an 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:04.480 option but was unlikely. But it's floating out there. So 0:09:05.080 --> 0:09:09.040 bottom line, we lost McClanahan for the year. There's no chance. 0:09:09.120 --> 0:09:12.160 I'm betting that he's gonna come back, And I don't 0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:14.920 know it serves me any to keep doing this whole like, 0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:17.160 what the hell is going on with the rays? But 0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:18.720 what the hell's going on with the rays? With all 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:19.439 the pitchers. 0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:20.199 Still it's nuts. 0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:22.200 And the McClanahan thing, like we talked about when you 0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:24.960 went a second opinion, it's barely good. This news comes 0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:27.240 out and Cash goes, yeah, unlikely to pitch this year. 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:30.040 Surgery is on the table. We're gonna be in another opinion. 0:09:30.520 --> 0:09:32.480 So it's basically the first two opinions probably said we're 0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:34.480 gonna have surgery, and like, no, no, no, let's wait, 0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:36.679 can you do it without it? So the biggest thing 0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:39.400 we can do now besides drop him everywhere, is if 0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:41.959 he doesn't have surgery, we can hopefully expect him back 0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:43.240 to start the season. Next year if you want to 0:09:43.320 --> 0:09:46.920 roll the dice. Yeah, surgery now we're talking long time away. 0:09:47.240 --> 0:09:49.920 So but yeah, to your Tampa Bay question, it's a disaster. 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:52.840 I can't remember who tweeted it. What analyst tweeted it 0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:55.480 out earlier this week that said maybe race starters are 0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:58.840 best not used on draft day, but rather waiver wires 0:09:58.880 --> 0:09:59.720 throughout the season. 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:00.920 Okay, say that again. 0:10:01.800 --> 0:10:05.720 Raise pictures may be better left not drafted on draft 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.040 day and off the waiver wire throughout the season, like 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:10.560 when one when Todge Bradley comes up, go ed todje 0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:12.840 don't waste a draft capital on someone that's gonna go 0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:13.640 get hurt type thing. 0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:15.840 Yeah, I mean that's a fair question. 0:10:15.960 --> 0:10:16.200 Though. 0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:19.600 Well, I mean, I guess Jeffrey Springs it was great 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:21.840 on the pick up last year and then it was 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:25.400 going well only my here's my only defense of that, 0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:29.760 and that logic is that the pictures are great, it's 0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:33.000 just the injuries. Yeah, and then the injury takes them away, 0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:34.800 so it's not like you can pick them up. 0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:36.319 You're to be picking up them. 0:10:36.600 --> 0:10:39.319 Yeah, you're well all you're if you're making the statement, hey, 0:10:39.360 --> 0:10:41.960 you got to pick up waiver wire Raise pictures it's 0:10:42.000 --> 0:10:43.840 not the good guys. It means you're picking up the 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:46.120 next guy on line, which you just need to be 0:10:46.120 --> 0:10:49.920 attuned to then. But like dude, Rasmus was badass, Springs 0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:51.840 was a monster. That was my other guy this year. 0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:53.680 McClanahan I thought was the number one. 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:56.680 I guess the more important question is Okay, so mclan 0:10:56.760 --> 0:10:59.520 again cost a premium where Springs and Rascals and their 0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:01.400 their value went up, but it was like round one 0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:03.360 hundred hundred and fifty depending on where you're drafting. 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:05.000 Springs started to cost a little bit more. 0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:07.760 Yeah, so there at least you got more bang for 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:10.760 your buck, where McClanahan, you're probably like a third round pick, 0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:12.840 give or take. And then it started getting like you 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:14.400 look at it. Did I get my dollars worth? 0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:16.000 Now? I just told scheme of things. 0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:17.640 Yeah, I think what you're getting at is paying a 0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:20.880 premium for raise pictures. At this point, like, I refuse 0:11:21.160 --> 0:11:24.360 unless I'm told some other science to this, I refuse 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:29.920 to believe that there isn't something in the organization that 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:32.679 is causers. And I'm going to thanks Emo right when 0:11:32.720 --> 0:11:34.000 we're after this. I think I might have poked a 0:11:34.040 --> 0:11:37.000 him yesterday about it, like find out you're smart, You're the. 0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:39.280 Smart We'll find out question for you prospect. I know 0:11:39.280 --> 0:11:42.079 we're deviating from things, but we're talking Raise here. Shane 0:11:42.080 --> 0:11:44.000 Baws will be back to start next season because he 0:11:44.040 --> 0:11:47.240 had TJ last September, so now he's surgery behind us. 0:11:47.400 --> 0:11:49.640 Kind of glass now situation, how do we feel there? 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:53.600 I'm still in especially, so there's going to be as 0:11:53.600 --> 0:11:55.000 a Glass now all of a sudden, I'll be a 0:11:55.080 --> 0:11:57.720 higher pick because it's just this back injury. So the Raisers, 0:11:57.720 --> 0:11:58.920 we still know they're going to be good when they're 0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:00.880 on the mountains. The bottom line, it's just the premium. 0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:01.520 We talked about that. 0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:04.400 Yeah, to your point, like I might be more Fadie 0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:07.600 of McClanahan and Glass now next season where guys like 0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:09.960 Bradley and Boss are going to be a lot cheaper, 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:12.040 I might go into the Savali as well. We didn't 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:14.600 see Sevally make the change yet, but it was in 0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:17.560 like one start where the theory was maybe that Savally 0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:20.120 was going they were gonna have him throw the fastball 0:12:20.120 --> 0:12:21.960 a little bit less. That's kind of what the Rays do. 0:12:22.480 --> 0:12:24.280 So if we see some big changes, he would be 0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:26.000 a guy next year, I think I would probably buy 0:12:26.000 --> 0:12:29.520 into a cheaper Savale Bradley and Da dah Da Da dah. 0:12:29.520 --> 0:12:31.400 So those are some of those some of the other news, 0:12:31.400 --> 0:12:32.679 and then after we get out of the news, we're 0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:34.880 going to answer a bunch of these questions. Logan, Gilbert 0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:39.520 went seven innings, one hit, twelve k's, no walks, Babba, 0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:44.439 only four hard hit balls, but fifteen swinging strikes. So again, 0:12:44.960 --> 0:12:49.679 twelve strikeouts with fifteen swinging strikes. So the efficiency of 0:12:49.720 --> 0:12:52.720 when he was getting those swinging strikes were for his 0:12:52.760 --> 0:12:54.760 strike It's probably some called strikes in there as well. 0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:57.800 So just curious that your thoughts on Logan Gilbert this performance. 0:12:58.040 --> 0:13:00.600 You know, we've seen Luis Castillo, George Kurk come up, 0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:03.559 Gilbert has had these flashes this year. This was an 0:13:03.600 --> 0:13:07.960 absolutely dominant performance. Thoughts on Gilbert, Yeah, absolutely amazing. 0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:10.000 I was kind of like, where did the strikeouts come from? 0:13:10.040 --> 0:13:12.320 Like we've been he's been, He's been good this year, 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:14.480 you know, not as consistent as Kirby, like you mentioned, 0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:17.080 but this was just pure domination here and it just 0:13:17.200 --> 0:13:19.400 kind of gives you hope for going forward with him 0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:21.720 as an upper end draft pip Like We're gonna have 0:13:21.760 --> 0:13:25.440 to discuss next season, but it was great to see. 0:13:25.600 --> 0:13:26.760 I don't have a ton to say on it. 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:29.319 Really, it's like you're hoping for these kind of starts 0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:31.160 and he finally gave you one. It's just it's been 0:13:31.160 --> 0:13:32.679 a rocky road of late for him. So those that 0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:34.640 stuck with him, you got your word. 0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:37.120 He really has been one of my favorite underlying ones 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:38.880 because he's the hardest word. I've said it's a gazillion 0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:42.000 times just seven cent in a while. But like you know, 0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:44.559 I go to Mariner's camp a lot because I live 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:46.440 near it, so like the camps I go to the most, 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:51.680 like Royals, Rangers, Padres, Padres, and Mariners, and then occasionally 0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:53.920 White Sox and Dodgers are because they're close to me. 0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:58.800 Logan Gilbert is without a doubt, always the last person 0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:01.599 off of that field's working. He was sitting in bullpins. 0:14:01.800 --> 0:14:04.040 He is one of the first out and the last out. 0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:07.959 Super hard worker, smart guy, adds pitches. You worry sometimes 0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:10.600 if he become too much of a tinkerer. And I 0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:13.520 know the chat said that my pick up a bull 0:14:13.840 --> 0:14:16.720 is a is a welshism which I don't know. I 0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:19.960 think pick up a bull. Is that a Welshism? That's 0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:20.320 a word. 0:14:20.600 --> 0:14:22.200 I think it's amazing. If it's not a word, it 0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:22.640 should be. 0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:27.280 Yeah, that should be in the merrym Welsh Dictionary right there. 0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:30.760 Yeah, like the Welsh. We like Websters, the Welsters, the 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:34.160 wels Welsh. Yeah yeah, exactly, the pick up able. I 0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:35.880 really think we should actually make the I T. 0:14:36.040 --> 0:14:38.040 L Dictionary. It's just be real about it, like yeah, like. 0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:40.360 There's enough, there's enough phrases between you two that you 0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:41.760 guys could have a dictionary right now. 0:14:41.800 --> 0:14:44.080 But a book which is maybe like the chat we 0:14:44.080 --> 0:14:46.160 could always like it like a like a player debate 0:14:46.200 --> 0:14:48.080 book with you, like you know, like remember those like 0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:51.400 little tiny, like little baby bibles they would have like 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:54.400 baby wet like a little baby Welshism. 0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:55.560 Book, stand at the corner and hand them out. 0:14:55.960 --> 0:14:59.040 Yeah yeah, they're like this big and just each page 0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:01.040 is a little Welshism. Like let's work on that. We 0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:04.520 can have that next year on. 0:15:02.560 --> 0:15:04.320 A calendar book. 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:08.160 Yeah, yeah, fantastic. I get each one is me of 0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:09.840 a different photo with Corbyn Peril. 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:11.840 And exactly photo shopped and something like you're on the 0:15:11.880 --> 0:15:13.680 Pyramids one day and you're over here another day. 0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:16.120 Be awesome, but it's always me and Corbon, like me 0:15:16.200 --> 0:15:17.920 and co photoshopped, like it's. 0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:20.120 The one picture you guys took together. But it's like 0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:21.600 we're at the call of sum in Rome. 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:29.560 That would hilarious. We're like on the Golden gate Bridge. Yeah, exactly. 0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:32.280 When you're like, it's a small world. Did like it 0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:32.880 could be awesome. 0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:35.320 We have great wall China. It's me and Corbon. We're 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:38.600 still oh my god, we got work, guys. That's that's phenomenal. 0:15:38.640 --> 0:15:41.880 That's phenomenal work. A couple other pitching things. Lucas Gilido 0:15:41.960 --> 0:15:44.760 didn't suck, which is cool. He gave up three against 0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:46.920 the Giants, but he struck out seven. Here was what 0:15:47.000 --> 0:15:51.800 was bigger, seventeen swinging strikes. No ball was hit over 0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:55.120 ninety six mile an hour, and Villo was up a 0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:58.160 full mile per hour on the fastball. And I think 0:15:58.200 --> 0:16:01.920 it was the slider so velo up no big hard hits. 0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:05.080 Maybe it was against the Giants. Giants have been kind 0:16:05.120 --> 0:16:07.040 of a little bit stinky and stuff like that. But 0:16:07.760 --> 0:16:09.680 how encouraged, Like how much are you buying off of 0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:11.760 this performance? You know, moving over to the Angels, I 0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:13.280 don't know what the hell they do at the major 0:16:13.320 --> 0:16:15.320 league level to work. But being around Otawi, I guess 0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:16.640 can just kind of like rub off on you. 0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:19.960 And he's an LA guy. He's home. So that big 0:16:20.000 --> 0:16:20.920 for Geo as well. 0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:23.840 I've always I've been rolling Geo still this season, he's 0:16:23.840 --> 0:16:25.720 had his hiccups. He's not the ace he once was, 0:16:26.160 --> 0:16:29.560 but he's definitely a very serviceable pitcher. Like before the 0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:31.720 nine runs against Atlanta, it was three runs, zero runs, 0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:33.920 and there was an eight in there, then two two, four, 0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:36.440 one two, He's been very very serviceable, getting you five 0:16:36.520 --> 0:16:36.760 or more. 0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:37.120 K's. 0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:39.280 This is who he is to me, especially against bad teams. 0:16:39.280 --> 0:16:41.400 He's gonna take advantage of bad teams. It's just the 0:16:41.880 --> 0:16:43.560 tougher teams you have to look at. You know, the 0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:45.840 Mets got to him somehow, but that's when the Mets 0:16:45.840 --> 0:16:48.160 are kind of playing well. Atlantic and nine ers against 0:16:48.160 --> 0:16:49.640 the Braves in Atlanta. I think we can let that 0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:51.760 one slide. So I'm good with G. 0:16:52.240 --> 0:16:56.120 Yeah, And you know, I don't know if like I 0:16:56.160 --> 0:16:57.920 can't decide if I'm interested in like maybe like a 0:16:57.920 --> 0:16:59.760 little by like if I were in a dynasty keeper 0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:03.840 talking for pitching. Yeah, I'm like, AMG pseudo interested though 0:17:03.840 --> 0:17:05.440 he's going to go to a new spot next year. 0:17:05.480 --> 0:17:08.119 I want to see this in positively. 0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:10.800 He's going to the Dodgers. Assume if Otani somehow does not, 0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:14.280 because Geo wants to be home. He's if you've listened 0:17:14.280 --> 0:17:15.680 to him talk about like just when he went to 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:17.840 visit Dodger Stadium with the White Sox team and pitch 0:17:18.200 --> 0:17:19.360 it was like the best thing for him. 0:17:19.359 --> 0:17:20.520
