You're busy, man. 0:01:19.280 --> 0:01:22.600 I don't really like it though. I don't either, That's 0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:25.119 why I'm bringing it up. Alright, I much I much 0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:27.200 preferred not to be busy and just doing this and 0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:29.680 hang out all day. All right, Well, we got it today, 0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:31.720 so let's enjoy all we have and great, how are you, man? 0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:35.080 How did you sleep? How did I sleep? Uh? Not great? Man? 0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:39.679 This uh this Yankees West Coast trip. I mentioned this 0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:42.200 around this week. It's gonna kill me. Yeah, I've I've 0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:45.399 stayed up late. I wasn't up to watch the end 0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:48.480 of the game, and I was watching the Damian Lillard 0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:50.480 last second shot. I turned on that game with like 0:01:50.520 --> 0:01:52.400 five minutes left. I watched him in the first half 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:54.640 of it. And there's a crazy night in sports. I 0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:57.440 didn't watch hockey, but I kind of saw like Twitter 0:01:57.560 --> 0:02:00.720 was reacting everything that was going on. And my condolences 0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:04.480 to anyone who was hurt last night regarding what happened 0:02:04.520 --> 0:02:07.480 in hockey. But I personally did not watch. But I 0:02:07.520 --> 0:02:10.720 was watching some NBA, Dame Lillard, lots of baseball last night. 0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:13.079 It was just a crazy night overall. How do you sleep, Greg, 0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:15.320 how's your night? I felt right. I went to bed 0:02:16.480 --> 0:02:19.720 a little bit later because I was watching the basketball game. Um, 0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:21.200 I thought we were blowing up your phone and you 0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:23.440 were gonna wake up in the morning and say, guys, 0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:26.880 stop texting me. Because Floria and I were just going 0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:28.720 back and forth. We were talking about a bunch of stuff. 0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:31.000 We actually took over first place in GSC, which is fine. 0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:35.160 That re fund this morning to that or responded last 0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:37.200 night to that. I don't know, Oh my god, I did. 0:02:37.280 --> 0:02:39.320 I don't know. I saw all these text messages. Yeah, 0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:41.280 there was a lot. We were just we were going 0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:46.400 at I did see these. I did see these. I 0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:48.040 don't remember it was this morning or last night I 0:02:48.040 --> 0:02:51.680 saw them. But um, I have you this shadow. Do 0:02:51.720 --> 0:02:55.600 not disturb because we talk a lot, and that's true. 0:02:55.919 --> 0:02:57.880 I have this chat on and do not disturb, so 0:02:57.919 --> 0:03:00.240 I wouldn't so I wouldn't wake up. I did wake up. 0:03:00.960 --> 0:03:02.200 I didn't know if you were one of those people 0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:03.679 that has like your phone right next to year bed 0:03:04.320 --> 0:03:08.239 thinking on and it vibrates constantly. That's why has chats 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:12.320 dude on this. Yeah, so I don't have any vibration 0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:14.520 feature on my phone. It's just silent all the time. 0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:16.440 So if you call me, I'm most likely not answering. 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:19.079 Do you know what? You know? What text woke me up? 0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:25.520 It was the twelve fortween you and Sandro about Mike Ford. 0:03:26.400 --> 0:03:28.800 That's what woke me up last Mike Ford, Like, what 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:30.600 are these guys texting you out at a quarter to 0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:34.840 one in the morning like the Yankees. Oh gosh, Mike Ford, 0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:37.440 Sterling call you like that, Greg for the Yankee, Just 0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:40.160 a Ford in your future. Mike is Ford tough. It's 0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:43.800 better than Attachman, Talkman and Stockman. The funniest part about 0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:46.560 that was so Michael Kaye is getting the report from 0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:50.880 Meredith regarding what the call is for Mike Ford, and 0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:53.160 they start joking on Sterling and like, well, it's better 0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:55.920 than Talkman the Sockman, that's for sure. I want. I 0:03:55.920 --> 0:04:02.600 watched that. I watched yep um anyway, did they could 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:05.000 be the return of Daniel Murphy. Potentially we're winning on 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.200 news with that with Colorado, so we'll get you that. 0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:10.920 And I said this last night or this morning again, 0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:13.760 when it gimes to the v F chat, I think 0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:15.920 Garret Hamson gets it down when where he was back 0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:19.960 Now they couldn't certainly just option Jeff Hoffman. But that's 0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:23.640 gonna depend on Kyle Freeland's availability going forward. We'll see. 0:04:24.480 --> 0:04:26.960 But Garrett Hamson last night against Left, he didn't even start. 0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:31.120 Ryan McMahon and Mark Reynolds both started in that spot. 0:04:31.920 --> 0:04:34.680 Ryan McMann went to for four. Hampson didn't see the 0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:38.440 field and that's even with David Donald not playing. I'm very, 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:41.080 very worried when Garret Hampson on right now. Yeah, I 0:04:41.080 --> 0:04:44.760 think you have to be. I would imagine they would 0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:48.680 keep Garrett Hampson around just because he's a super utility player. 0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:52.240 And we're seeing now in baseball that versatility is key 0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:53.960 when it comes to your bench. A lot of teams 0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:57.640 are only keeping you know, three maybe four bats. Most 0:04:57.680 --> 0:04:59.400 of the time it's been three bats on their bench, 0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:02.440 and they do that because they have players who can 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:04.760 play all over the field, and Garrett Hampson gives them 0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:07.320 that versatility. But regardless, you're right that we should be 0:05:07.320 --> 0:05:09.479 worried about him from a fantasy and perspective, because even 0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:12.360 last night against the lefty and Patrick Corbin, he wasn't 0:05:12.400 --> 0:05:14.719 in the lineup and Ryan McMahon was and he performed well. 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.640 So that would lead me to believe Ryan nick Mann 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:20.120 is going to continue to see the bulk of the 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:22.680 playing time now, especially against lefties two. So I do 0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:26.080 worry about Garrett Hampson from a fantasy perspective, greg and 0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:28.440 there's a chance he gets sent down, but ultimately I 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:30.960 think that he'll stick around just because of his versatility. 0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:34.920 But he's likely just a super utility bench player. That's 0:05:34.960 --> 0:05:38.720 the question, is he is he a super utility bench 0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:41.920 player or is he a utility bench player. I think 0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:45.880 that's the question because well, they're they're not making a 0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:47.720 concerted effort to get him in the lineup right now. 0:05:48.680 --> 0:05:51.080 So I would imagine Ryan nick Man has to be 0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:54.280 slightly older, and that's probably why they like him. Rockies 0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:59.680 just hate young players. Yeah, oh, the actually the same 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:06.800 as I mean, uh, look at that. Ryan McMahon is 0:06:06.839 --> 0:06:10.960 actually two months younger. See they love young players. Oh man, 0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:13.040 what's going on here? This is so weird. The Rockies 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:15.880 love young players, Frank. But to be fair, Greg, you know, 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:18.400 they gave Garrett Hampson a shot this year and it's 0:06:20.279 --> 0:06:23.479 you know, he hasn't been great. Twenty six point seven 0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:27.440 percent ray, two point seven percent walk rady, he was hitting. 0:06:28.279 --> 0:06:30.440 He's been terrible. He's been bad. Yeah, I mean, I 0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:33.840 forgot hasn't been great. He's been terrible. Like we had 0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:36.320 that one breakout game where I think he hit a homer, 0:06:36.360 --> 0:06:38.080 you might have stole a base like all in the 0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:40.599 same game and he only has one homer and he 0:06:40.600 --> 0:06:43.400 always has one stolen pace. So it was really just 0:06:43.640 --> 0:06:47.160 that one game last night in Colorado, the Nationals were 0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:49.480 able to defeat the Rockies six to three. As Patrick 0:06:49.520 --> 0:06:52.680 Corbyn went into course Field, it's pretty well six innings, 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:55.080 oh to earn run ball, a lot of three runs, total, 0:06:55.160 --> 0:06:57.480 shrugout six, only walked one. I know you're taking you 0:06:57.480 --> 0:07:00.760 already feel like you're taking the Ellen Patrick Corbyn. Yeah, 0:07:00.800 --> 0:07:03.800 pretty much. Yeah, I can't. I can't really dispute that 0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:06.440 I did take Zach Wheeler over Patrick Corban in the 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:10.480 main event, which we'll get into Latron obviously. But Patrick 0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:12.600 Corbyn has been great. He's been great to to start 0:07:12.600 --> 0:07:14.440 the year. To go into coors Field, you know, I 0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:16.840 did have my concerns. I haven't been one league. It's 0:07:16.840 --> 0:07:18.400 a home league, it's a head to head points league. 0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:23.240 Definitely had my concerns regarding Patrick Corbin. But goes in 0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:28.119 there eleven swinging shrikes on a hundred pitches, two earned 0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:31.360 runs against a Rockies lineup that had been coming around 0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:35.280 in coors Field. Obviously a strikeout for ending. I think 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:37.960 if you drafted Patrick Corbyn the two point four eight 0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:40.400 e ar a, you feel great about it right now. 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.720 I I he was not an active target of mind, 0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:45.440 we went over that. You know, I would have I 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:49.480 would have personally went with guys like Wheeler. I would 0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:53.640 have went with James Paxton over him. Jack Flaherty, I 0:07:53.640 --> 0:07:55.200 would have went over him as well, And I think 0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:57.640 better days are coming for Flaherty. But uh, for the 0:07:57.680 --> 0:08:00.480 most part, you know that Tier has has been pretty 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:02.400 good or at least had some signs of coming around. 0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:04.960 Corban has probably been the most consistent to start the season, 0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:07.480 but obviously were with our huge game. Paxton back to 0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:10.320 back huge games. Jack Flaherty has been a little bit 0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:12.800 up and down, but you know the Brewers lineups he's 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:18.120 been facing. And then Jamison Tyne has been okay, Okay, 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:21.000 he's been okay. Sean Doolittle probably know what was consistent 0:08:21.400 --> 0:08:23.000 he has, and he's been He's been really really good. 0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:26.760 Sean Doolittle picks up his third save, stuck strikes at three, 0:08:26.800 --> 0:08:28.400 got four outs for the saves. A nice job there 0:08:28.400 --> 0:08:31.080 by Doolittle. Uh, you had a second stolen base of 0:08:31.200 --> 0:08:34.800 this season, I'm sorry, the fifth, fourth and fifth stolen 0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:37.160 basis of the season for Victor Roeblason this one. So 0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:38.760 it's nice to see him running. It's also nice to 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:40.840 see him continue to back at the top of the order. 0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:44.559 He was in the second hole here um eight on 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:47.040 the year for our guy, Victor Robles. Adam Eating By 0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:48.480 the way, we haven't talking about Adam Eating at all. 0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:50.840 He's been over three hundred no b P at three 0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:53.280 eight six. What do we need to know about Adam Eating? 0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:55.679 I realized that this is obviously in Colorado yesterday, but 0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:57.200 it's just a name that we haven't talked about because 0:08:57.240 --> 0:08:58.800 that we weren't on him. Do you start off the 0:08:58.840 --> 0:09:01.280 season which fan as the players know about Adam Eaton? 0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:04.680 Is what he's doing real or is this somebody that 0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:06.839 you don't believe in? Long term, it's real for Adam 0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:09.040 eat and it's just how long can he stay healthy 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:13.240 to continue doing this, Greg, Because we've never doubted that 0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:16.280 Adam Eating is a good player, but last year games played, 0:09:16.280 --> 0:09:19.400 the year before that, twenty three games played. This guy's 0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:21.040 barely been able to stay on the field as a 0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:24.319 member of the Washington Nationals. Now he has done so 0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:26.679 so far this season. Gregg. He's hitting three nineteen, He's 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:29.400 got around an eight percent walk great, the three six 0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:30.959 O b P, all of those things are great. He's 0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:33.679 got sixteen runs scored four sole on basis, this is 0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:37.440 exactly what you want Adam eating for batting average, solid 0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:41.240 run scored, already has sixteen, already has four bases. This 0:09:41.320 --> 0:09:42.920 is exactly what you want, eating four and I think 0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:46.240 he can continue to provide that as long as he's healthy. 0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:48.880 The problem is how long will he stay healthy? That's 0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:51.080 the question regarding Adamy. But I think as long as 0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:54.400 he's on the field, especially leading off for this National's lineup, 0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:57.680 it's a great lineup. And you know that's even without 0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:00.960 Anthony wren Don in there yesterday, and Tray Turner has 0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:03.000 been banged up as well. We know that he's out. 0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:05.160 Adam Eaton has been doing his job and I think 0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:07.200 as long as he plays well, he's going to continue 0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:10.439 to lead off. I worry about once Trade Turner is back. 0:10:10.640 --> 0:10:12.160 Is Victor Roeblis is all the way back down to 0:10:12.160 --> 0:10:16.200 batting ninth's and I don't see how he doesn't. To 0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:17.840 be honest with you, how do you how do you 0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:21.920 think people feel about Victor Roeblas overall to start the season, Greg, 0:10:22.080 --> 0:10:24.000 do you think that they How do you feel like 0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:28.400 you got? How do you feel I want to see 0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:30.319 I think over roll. He's been fine. You know, he's 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.959 been two. He's betting two seventy eight. He's got three homers, 0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:36.360 fifteen runs scored, ten or ten RB, i's five stolen basis. 0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:38.520 He's giving you production across the board. You know, I 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:40.600 want to see him cut down on the strikeouts. Obviously 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:45.320 near thirty two strikeout rate last year in twenty one games, 0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:47.560 with the National's only eighteen percent strikeout right in the 0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:51.000 in the minor leagues, you know, triple A last year, 0:10:51.160 --> 0:10:55.280 fourteen percent strikeout rate. In seventeen at double A thirteen 0:10:55.320 --> 0:10:58.160 point nine percent strikeout rate. So I want to see 0:10:58.160 --> 0:11:00.520 the strikeouts come down. Regarding Victor Roe was you know, 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:02.959 right around thirty two. But if he cuts down on 0:11:03.000 --> 0:11:05.480 the strike out, he's already batting two seventy eight. This 0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:07.079 is a guy who if he brings it down to 0:11:08.520 --> 0:11:10.400 or even below Greg this might be a guy that 0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:13.000 flirts with a three D batting average. He's giving you 0:11:13.040 --> 0:11:16.000 across the board production. The hard hit rate is not 0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:18.040 great to start the year, but I mean, with that 0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:21.240 being said hard hit rate, he still has three home runs. 0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:25.600 You know, he still has ten RBIs, So overall, I 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:27.120 think he's I think he's been great. I think the 0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:31.040 stole the two Stoon bases last night help his overall line. 0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:34.280 I saw his one and fifty game pace last night 0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:36.920 just from bat Flip Crazy on Twitter. Follow him on Twitter. 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:40.559 He puts out great stuff. Six hundred played appearent pace 0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:45.160 late appearance pace for Victor Roeblis on five runs, scored, 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:49.640 one one homers, seventy one RBIs thirty five stone bases 0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:52.839 and he's hitting two seventy eight. Remember the comp that 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:56.160 we made for Victor Roeboys Starley Marte. That sounds a 0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:58.520 lot like Stoley Marte, and you were getting him around 0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:01.520 three four rounds later Starley Marte. And at least Victor 0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:04.240 Roeblays is healthy right now, so I think over all 0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:06.160 he's been He's been pretty damn good. We haven't talked 0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:08.040 a lot about him, so I did want to hit 0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:10.240 on Victor roeblast a little bit today. I'm I'm happy 0:12:10.240 --> 0:12:14.319 that we're able to do. Sure. The Brewers lost last 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:16.080 night in St. Louis four to three. And the reason 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:18.480 why I'm going here next rather than Zach Wheeler whatnot, 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:22.120 He's because the latest news from Milwaukee, and that is 0:12:22.160 --> 0:12:24.760 the fact that this team has signed Geo Gonzalez uh 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:27.280 to a two million dollar major league contracts, so he's 0:12:27.280 --> 0:12:29.200 gonna be right in that rotation. I think, is there 0:12:29.240 --> 0:12:33.200 any interest in picking up Digital Gonzalez? Not really. I 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:35.680 wasn't a fan of Geo Gonzalez the past couple of years, 0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:37.880 and I know it was either I believe it was 0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:40.400 two years ago. He definitely made me look bad, but 0:12:40.440 --> 0:12:43.080 the underlying numbers were not good. Yeah, it was seen 0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:45.440 where he had a two point nine six ear a. 0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:49.240 That was sandwich between two years where in he had 0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:50.920 a four or five seven ear a, and then last 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:54.040 year he had a four to one ear a. The 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:56.640 strikeouts came down last year, the walks went up. Listen 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:58.920 to this, Greg, I mean seven point seven nine case 0:12:58.960 --> 0:13:02.679 per nine, four point to one walks per nine. It's 0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:04.199 just not going to get the job done. And he's 0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:07.199 going to a hitter's ballpark. Obviously in Miller Park, he's 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:11.240 gonna face tough lineups with the Cardinals and the Cubs nationally, 0:13:11.400 --> 0:13:13.840 only sure because he has a spot in the rotation, 0:13:13.840 --> 0:13:16.760 but even in fifteen team mixed, Greg me, personally, I 0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:19.720 don't have any interest in Geo gonzalz all right, fair enough, 0:13:19.880 --> 0:13:23.600 are you anything not? Probably not? Probably not the bullpencoo 0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:26.520 early for for me to be interested in Geo Gonzalez 0:13:26.559 --> 0:13:28.560 here we get to booted from the rotation. Is it 0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:33.800 is it Zach Davies who's even in his rotation right now? 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:39.400 The other day was you know, Doobie Howser was They're 0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:41.400 trying to find anyone they can get right now, there's 0:13:41.400 --> 0:13:46.600 any bodies to pitch um Chess Anderson is terrible. This 0:13:46.679 --> 0:13:48.400 is always the bug a boo with the Brewers. That's 0:13:48.400 --> 0:13:51.600 why they signed Gonzalas. Yeah, they're pitching always sucks. But 0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:56.480 I'm a I'm a believer greg that you should build 0:13:56.480 --> 0:13:59.400 the strength of your team around your home ballpark. Right so, 0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:01.559 they know that their home ballpark as a hitter's park. 0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:03.240 And what do they do. They put together one of 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:05.360 the best lineups in baseball. I mean it's you know, 0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:07.920 it's top three in baseball right now. And you know 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:10.280 they have one of the best players overall right now, 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:13.280 Christian Yellows too, so they continue to add to the lineup. 0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:16.040 They knew what they were doing when they signed Mike Mustakis, 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:18.400 who is now out for the third straight game. We'll 0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:21.280 get some updates tomorrow from Dr A regarding Mike Mustakis. 0:14:21.320 --> 0:14:24.080 But they know what they were doing. They sign Mustakis 0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:26.640 and he's gonna play second base, so they're sacrificing defense. 0:14:26.720 --> 0:14:28.760 They know they don't have good pitching. They just want 0:14:28.760 --> 0:14:30.920 to score more runs in the opposing team. And that's 0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:34.720 you know, that's basically been the mantra for the Milwaukee Brewers. 0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:38.160 And also for today, he's us out of the lineup again, Greg, 0:14:38.560 --> 0:14:40.880 that's the third straight day. It's it was Eric Thames 0:14:40.920 --> 0:14:43.280 on Monday who started Jazz Monty Grandall last night, and 0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:46.320 then it was Eric Thames again today starting that game 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:50.440 kicks off at one o'clock. But he's looks like they're 0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:53.440 giving him a mental break, Greg, pretty long mental break here. 0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:55.880 Three games in a row for for Aggie that he's 0:14:55.880 --> 0:15:02.160 on the bench. The Brewers last night wound up in St. Louis, 0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:05.680 falling to Upon State Leone four to three as Danny 0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:08.360 Poston won five things too. It's one run, he walked three, 0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:11.120 he struck out seven in the spot start. Jordan Hicks 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:13.840 a lot of run picked up his sixth save of 0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:17.040 the season. A lot of homers in this one, including 0:15:17.160 --> 0:15:20.160 once again Travis Shaw going deep in the ninth inning. 0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:23.560 Paul the Young has been been unbelievable man this year. 0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:25.400 That was one of two Shaw home runs on his 0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:28.520 I one mentioned six and the ninth inning for him, 0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:30.880 Paul the has been incredible this year. Everyone that wanted 0:15:30.880 --> 0:15:32.280 to be things for him, you've gotten it over the 0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:34.760 past couple of weeks to start off the season, He's 0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:38.280 fifth home run. Now batting up, fatting average is up 0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:41.240 to three thirty seven o BP is close to four hundred. 0:15:41.440 --> 0:15:45.280 Absolutely fantastic start for Paul de Young. Colton Loong over 0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:47.440 three again, frank fatting average out of two seventy eight 0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:49.800 by the o B p U still being over four 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:52.720 hundred or then north Cia also hit his fourth home 0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:56.880 run of the season in this one. Or Sea spending 0:15:56.880 --> 0:16:00.920 too eighteen. Yeah, it's been a couple of years here 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:05.120 for Orlando Arcia. Want to be the next Franciscodor Yes, 0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:08.880 I did. I not me. I was, I was too. 0:16:08.920 --> 0:16:10.400 I looked at the minor league numbers. I thought they 0:16:10.400 --> 0:16:12.400 were similar. You know, they were regarded more so as 0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:16.200 defensive first players coming up, and you know they had 0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:18.440 similar numbers, and I thought Orlando or Cia can can 0:16:18.480 --> 0:16:20.040 make that jump last year. Maybe he could be a 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:23.600 fifteen fifteen or even a player, but I just completely 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:26.560 bottomed out last year. And at least this season, you know, 0:16:26.600 --> 0:16:28.440 the power has come back a little bit. He's got 0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:30.720 four home runs. He he had only three home runs 0:16:30.720 --> 0:16:32.760 all of last year, so that's a good sign. But 0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:37.880 the batting average has been brutal here for or Orlando Orcia. 0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:41.080 There's a lot actually going on in this game. Travis 0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:43.520 Shaw with the two home runs, obviously you need to 0:16:43.560 --> 0:16:45.320 see that as an owner, and I think better days 0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:47.360 are coming. I said that yesterday. Don't give up on 0:16:47.440 --> 0:16:49.560 Travis Shaw. We come back, Greg. I do want to 0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:52.920 hit on Daniel Ponst a little bit because he's great 0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:56.160 minor league numbers. It's just are the Cardinals ever going 0:16:56.200 --> 0:16:57.720 to be able to give him a shot. They have 0:16:57.720 --> 0:17:00.120 a run of players like this that a shuffle in 0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:02.040 and out of the rotation between the majors and the miners, 0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:04.640 and they're all really good players. But I think pompsde 0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:06.639 Leone is a little bit better than some of you. 0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:09.119 We'll find out what I gets to say that and 0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:14.800 give it.

Tack with 0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:24.439 you on the Fantasy Best French Driver Fantasy Sports Radio Network, 0:19:25.240 --> 0:19:27.920 Frank Staffeld Gregg Sussman hanging out and Frank you wanted 0:19:27.920 --> 0:19:30.640 to dive into Danny Pones daey On a little more. 0:19:30.960 --> 0:19:33.600 It was a pretty interesting start last night against obviously 0:19:33.640 --> 0:19:36.400 a really good Brewer's lineup and five innings, just one 0:19:36.440 --> 0:19:39.399 earned run, two hits. Sometimes can struggle with the walks. 0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:41.840 You see that in the minors a little bit. Seven 0:19:41.880 --> 0:19:47.600 strikeouts and he had fourteen swinging strikes on just ninety pitches. Uh, 0:19:47.640 --> 0:19:51.159 twelve swinging strikes on his fastball alone. Just really impressive. 0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:53.600 Maxed out at ninety five miles per hour a few 0:19:53.680 --> 0:19:55.800 times on the fast ball, uses a curveball and a 0:19:55.960 --> 0:19:58.280 change up as well well. Just looking at the minor 0:19:58.359 --> 0:20:00.880 league numbers of the past couple of years, last year 0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:03.600 in the PCL, this is is the past three seasons in 0:20:03.640 --> 0:20:06.080 the pc L for him, which is regarded as a 0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:14.920 hitter friendly. Um was that conference league league. But last 0:20:15.000 --> 0:20:17.399 year in the p c L a two point to 0:20:17.680 --> 0:20:20.679 four e r A strikeouts in ninety six and the 0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:23.160 third d he's pitched one point to four whip again, 0:20:23.160 --> 0:20:26.080 struggles with wall box at times. UH the year before 0:20:26.160 --> 0:20:28.879 two point one seven e r A only six starts, 0:20:28.880 --> 0:20:31.399 small sample size, but at the PCL. You know, this 0:20:31.440 --> 0:20:33.320 season at three point to four e r A in 0:20:33.359 --> 0:20:36.200 the PCL, I think there's something here with with Ponce 0:20:36.280 --> 0:20:38.520 Daily on over the past couple of seasons, he's you know, 0:20:38.560 --> 0:20:42.159 average over a strikeout per ending. You know, among the 0:20:42.240 --> 0:20:45.840 group of him and and Gomber and Dakota Hudson, I 0:20:45.880 --> 0:20:48.399
