WEBVTT - MLB: Leading Off May 10th, 2022 (Ep. 507) 0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:18.000 Nasty nester. Let's play ball. Welcome in everybody to leading off, 0:00:18.040 --> 0:00:21.439 brought to you by MGM right here on Fantasy Prose. 0:00:21.840 --> 0:00:23.680 It is me, Joey p Joe piece OFPA with me 0:00:23.760 --> 0:00:26.680 today is my good pal Scott Bogman, and of course 0:00:26.720 --> 0:00:28.800 it's you, and we're recapping all things going on in 0:00:28.840 --> 0:00:31.160 Major League Baseball. We got betting stuff to talk about, 0:00:31.480 --> 0:00:33.720 We've got DFS stuff to talk about, we got fantasy, 0:00:33.800 --> 0:00:36.400 we got real baseball. Who knows what other stupid things 0:00:36.400 --> 0:00:38.839 we'll talk about today, Scott Bogman, it is great to 0:00:38.840 --> 0:00:41.159 see your face again, as always, my good friend. I 0:00:41.200 --> 0:00:43.800 had a question for you, Scott. I saw this today 0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:47.640 on the Twitter verse. Somebody said someone cut me off 0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:50.440 today and instead of giving me the finger, they gave 0:00:50.479 --> 0:00:53.320 me the thumbs down. And I'm not sure if that 0:00:53.479 --> 0:00:57.040 was more insulting or less. And on my way home 0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:59.480 from the gym today, I actually had somebody cut me 0:00:59.520 --> 0:01:02.080 off and I wanted to give them the thumbs down, 0:01:02.080 --> 0:01:04.120 and I thought, is that the thing to do? Is 0:01:04.120 --> 0:01:06.160 that more insulting? Is that? Like, I'm not mad, I'm 0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:07.120 just disappointed in you. 0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:08.400 I don't know. 0:01:08.520 --> 0:01:11.120 It feels like they're marking you for death, like you know, 0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:16.520 you're in the gladiator or something. You know, Yeah, that's 0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:19.400 it for you. That was your last that's the last 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:22.640 time you've been cut off. Ever, that's that's very strange. 0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:25.280 I can't get through that, so I can't process it 0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:25.800 in my brain. 0:01:26.959 --> 0:01:29.200 Well, you know, just be safe out there, everybody. Don't 0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:32.240 cut people off. I mean, you're not going anywhere in 0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:35.760 the suburbs faster. Okay, there's a light every two seconds. 0:01:35.800 --> 0:01:37.680 I don't know who you think you are, but anyway, 0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:39.560 I'm not going to bring all my baggage into the show. 0:01:39.560 --> 0:01:41.840 We're gonna talk to baseball stuff, and let's start with 0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:46.240 the Carlos Rodin, shall we, Oh, Baby, Carlos Rodon twelve 0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:50.040 strikeouts over six in a victory over the Rockies yesterday. 0:01:50.120 --> 0:01:52.360 Nessor Cortes was pretty good too. He was flirting with 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:54.520 a no note yesterday afternoon, A called part of this game. 0:01:54.760 --> 0:01:58.360 The mustache was glorious. He was glorious. Eleven strikeouts over 0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:01.840 seven and a third. I wish I had been more 0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:04.320 in on Nestor Cortes. I don't know if you've got 0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:07.800 any shares, but he has been fantastic and I want 0:02:07.800 --> 0:02:09.519 to say, almost like the most important piece for the 0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:10.680 Yankees so far this year. 0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:14.560 Yeah, he's been absolutely outstanding and he's one of those 0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:18.040 guys he finished off the year great. His kate pernine 0:02:18.120 --> 0:02:20.400 was awesome, as walk per nine is very low. So 0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:23.760 that's kind of my simple logic for throwing a dart 0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:26.520 on that guy, you know, at the end of drafts, 0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:29.639 and fortunately that worked out for me. So my dart 0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:33.000 throws of work for me so far this year. My starters, 0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:36.160 my top end guys, they've been okay, but my dart 0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:39.600 throws him and Merril Kelly are my two most rostered, 0:02:39.720 --> 0:02:40.959 so it has been working out. 0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:46.919 Is Carlos Rodon starting to get into the territory where 0:02:46.919 --> 0:02:51.160 he becomes almost a sensible wager now for National League? 0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:51.560 So young? 0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:54.080 Because I feel like first month this season we all 0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:55.880 kind of say, all right, now we're good. Six weeks 0:02:55.960 --> 0:02:59.079 or so, we're in. We're getting towards that period. When 0:02:59.080 --> 0:03:01.760 does he become invest because I feel like, and I'll 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:05.120 double check what the number is right now over on Fandal, 0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:07.080 but I'm just curious, like, when does it become an 0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:10.440 investible number for you? What's that number? When do you 0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:13.239 feel like there's enough starts where you feel like it's safe, 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:15.600 like he's actually going to pitch a whole season, or 0:03:15.639 --> 0:03:17.720 is there such a thing. Maybe maybe I'm wrong, Maybe 0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:18.760 there isn't such a window. 0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:22.799 Look, he's definitely you can definitely buy him for Cy 0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:24.840 Young right now. I don't know why you wouldn't. He 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:28.440 is crushing everyone in all of the stats right now. 0:03:28.480 --> 0:03:31.000 It's just unbelievable how good College for Donna has been. 0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:33.880 Going to San Francisco, and a lot of times you 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:35.680 see guys go to a different team and step up. 0:03:35.840 --> 0:03:38.000 He was already good and now he's at like Cy 0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:42.200 Young level. So it's just been insane. I have you know, 0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:44.360 as much as I bragged about Nesta and Meryl Kelly 0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:46.240 have as zero shares of college for don I think 0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:48.920 I was the lowest Fantasy Pro ranker on him as well, 0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:51.560 because I'm just not convinced he's going to make it 0:03:51.600 --> 0:03:54.920 through the season, because he just doesn't. So maybe something 0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:57.520 has changed. I hope I'm wrong. Like I said with Buxton, 0:03:57.720 --> 0:03:59.880 I hope I'm wrong on those. Doesn't mean I won't 0:03:59.880 --> 0:04:02.680 bring when I'm right, but I hope I am incorrect. 0:04:02.720 --> 0:04:04.800 We want first round talents to make it through the year, 0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:07.320 so the BET's not bad. But that is why I 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:09.880 wouldn't invest in cars for don because I still don't 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:10.960 think he makes it through the year. 0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:14.640 On betting pros right now, the consensus is plus six fifty, 0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:19.000 but you could still get plus seven hundred over on FanDuel. 0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:22.520 And you know, I'm looking around Kershaw's Believe it or 0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:26.280 notou Kershaw's plus seventeen hundred on Fandel Walker Buller's plus 0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:29.760 twelve hundred. Carls are donn is plus seven. I just 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:31.920 I can't wrap my mind around it yet. I feel 0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:35.440 like I'd be wasting money. But I'm also equally parts 0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:37.479 afraid that is going to get away from me and 0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:39.120 it's going to be two to one or minus money. 0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:40.479 At some point I'm gonna say, man, I wish I 0:04:40.520 --> 0:04:43.359 had made an investment at seven. Well, maybe there's a 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:45.240 ten spot on there might be good just to cover 0:04:45.320 --> 0:04:45.840 my basis. 0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:49.240 It's May, so you know, he gets rocked a couple 0:04:49.400 --> 0:04:53.200 times or has, you know, some type of injury and 0:04:53.240 --> 0:04:56.599 then misses a chunk of starts and comes back. He's 0:04:56.640 --> 0:04:59.920 still an awesome pitcher. But that's why I wouldn't invest. 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:03.039 But you absolutely can't. I mean, you know, because he's 0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:05.920 leading by a wide margin right now, all. 0:05:05.880 --> 0:05:08.800 Right, Rangers, Ranger Suarez put a lot of people's minds 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:11.120 at He's with six scoreless innings against Seattle yesterday. Nick 0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:14.200 Cassiano's doubled twice in that game and drove in three runs. 0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:16.760 Mike Trout homer for Mike Mayor gross and I'm mad 0:05:16.760 --> 0:05:18.359 about it because I had Trout and of course I 0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:21.000 changed it. Uh So there you go, hard for Homer 0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:23.040 for me. Yeah, I know, it's the worst. It was 0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:25.200 always compounded. When I and I go back and forth 0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:27.400 on somebody, I picked the wrong one, and then Mike 0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:30.920 Mayer picks that he's the dentist today. So because that's 0:05:30.920 --> 0:05:33.599 what he'll do, they go to the dentist and they say, 0:05:33.680 --> 0:05:35.960 just give me more dental work. Because I just I 0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:40.080 can't get any more angry about that. First Yeah, right, 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:43.839 first career grand slam for Shoheyo Tani yesterday two of 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:46.080 his home runs. One of them was a grand slam. 0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:49.080 Kyle Hendricks good game against the Padres, eight and two 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:52.200 thirds for him. Josh Naylor hit a grand slam, knocks 0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:54.919 in eight runs in the victory. More on that in 0:05:54.920 --> 0:05:57.880 a second. And we also had Kittel Marte to go 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:00.800 ahead home run too, So a kit Tell Marte signing 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:03.280 years a fun fact. You're ready for this? Bogs Josh 0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:06.320 Naylor of the Cleveland Guardians the first player in Major 0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:09.920 League history with two three plus homers in the ninth 0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:11.840 inning or later in the same game. What do you 0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:12.240 think of that? 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:15.600 I think it was awesome. It was great to see. 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:18.560 I bet he celebrates with a couple of cheeseburgers. He's 0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:21.360 definitely on the Scott Bogman diet. Josh Naylor is right there. 0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:26.760 So I appreciate a big guy hitting some bombs, and yeah, 0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:27.760 can tell Marte. 0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:29.279 Also, how about those d Backs. 0:06:29.400 --> 0:06:31.719 I've never been more proud of a last place team 0:06:31.960 --> 0:06:35.000 right now in the NL West show because they're only 0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:36.800 four and a half back and they're two games over 0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:40.960 five hundred. I can't remember when they were this far 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:44.400 above five hundred this late in the season in recent memory, 0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:46.880 so I know it's May tenth, but they've been rough 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:48.080 so and they're. 0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:50.000 Doing it with a tough roster. I mean that roster. 0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:52.120 You look at that every night. I look at it 0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:53.960 and I say to myself, is there anybody here for 0:06:54.000 --> 0:06:55.800 the Diamondbacks. Who's cheap that I want? And most of 0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:58.280 the days I go, I just I can't invest to them. 0:06:58.320 --> 0:07:01.720 It's really hard. But to their credit, they fight and 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:04.000 they battle and and they're you know, win some games. 0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:06.719 But I don't think it's not all sunshines and roadses. 0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:09.200 Seth Beer Oh for thirty five. He has the longest 0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:11.600 hitless streak of any non picture in Dback's history. 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:14.080 My god, oh for thirty five. 0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:16.600 Wow, thirty five it's rough. 0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:17.960 Wow, that guy needs. 0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:20.480 His only homer was the walk off on opening day. 0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:21.720 That's it still, that's. 0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:24.640 But you know what, that's gonna last a long time 0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:25.280 in your memory. 0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:26.520 Oh yeah, Yeah. 0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:30.600 It was like when Eric Cartman goes to Casa Bonita 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:32.560 and he end doesn't one minute and at the end 0:07:32.760 --> 0:07:35.200 like was it worth it? Seth Beers Nayler's in there 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:40.160 for sure, Uh, eating everything up. Yeah, Josh Naylor is 0:07:40.200 --> 0:07:43.320 totally hitting the taco bar Cossa banita all right. Injuries say, 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:45.520 it's Suzuki removed with ankle sword AND's keeping on that. 0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:48.800 Mandy Margo, Uh to party with the sore hamstring yesterday. 0:07:49.440 --> 0:07:52.120 This was fun added him in many always it you. 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:53.120 That's on me. 0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:56.320 Yeah, sorry sorry, uh Mandy Margo And there's that's that's 0:07:56.320 --> 0:07:56.920 my fault. 0:07:57.080 --> 0:07:58.800 That's why we can't have nice things. Why do you 0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:02.520 add people? Why do you do this? I don't understand. Also, 0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:06.400 this was kind of fun. Somebody, somebody on Twitter. Once again, 0:08:06.440 --> 0:08:09.480 Twitter is undefeated. Somebody decided to go and do a 0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:12.400 deep dive on a number of home runs Chris Woodward 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:15.280 had at either the old or new Yankee Stadium, and 0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:20.440 apparently the answer was none, no, zero, So. 0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:21.400 Isn't it the best? 0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:25.400 That The day after he said that, then Nestor goes 0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:28.240 in and has a no hit bid through seven and 0:08:28.280 --> 0:08:32.360 two thirds. I mean, just the best. Baseball just continues 0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:33.040 to be amazing. 0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:33.559 I love it. 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:36.520 He's a good time baby, It's a good time. That 0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:38.640 was That was my favorite though. I just thought that 0:08:38.760 --> 0:08:42.400 was just so entertaining. I really enjoyed that that somebody 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:44.320 spent the time and energy to go. You know what, 0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:47.560 I'm gonna do a deep dive on Chris Woodwards. You know, 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:49.560 home runs at Yankee Stadium. If it's such a little 0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:51.080 league field, why didn't he hit any? 0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:53.000 Because he looks like a little league or al Farness 0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:57.000 so yeah that go to Baseball Reference to click on 0:08:57.120 --> 0:08:59.040 Yankee Stadium and see that that guy had none. 0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:00.319 I mean, come on, you know. 0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:02.640 Yeah, but that's like eight seconds of your life you'll 0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:05.959 never get back spent on Chris Woodward's historical baseball knowledge. 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:08.559 You're not wrong, You're not wrong, So. 0:09:09.120 --> 0:09:12.400 Just saying, all right, Yesterday we did a deep dive 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:17.040 on the XVIIP versus e RRA. On the negative side, 0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:19.880 the guys who right now have really good eras, but 0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:23.719 the x VIIP is larger and suggesting regression. We talked 0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:26.959 about consolantly, talked about Bumgarner, even touched on Copek and 0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:29.800 a even a Welsh had a long die tribe about Minoa, 0:09:29.840 --> 0:09:32.559 who is still great. But that era is going to 0:09:32.600 --> 0:09:34.400 come back down to earth, probably somewhere in that you know, 0:09:34.480 --> 0:09:37.280 high to low threes pretty soon. Today we're going to 0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:39.800 do the inverse where we're gonna look at some of 0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:43.360 those guys who right now have bad eras, but it 0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:45.640 it's not necessarily telling the tale, and I always think 0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:49.960 that's super important too. One is the fifth Beaters. Here's 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:52.080 here's a fifth beater that you probably wouldn't guess because 0:09:52.240 --> 0:09:55.560 Brandon Woodruff did not make a lot of people happy yesterday. 0:09:55.840 --> 0:09:58.400 He has an eleven point six two k per nine. 0:09:58.840 --> 0:10:01.200 He's ERA right now is at five nine seven, but 0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:04.200 the XVIIP is three point twenty seven. I would be 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:06.560 buying Brandon Woodriff. This is the time to do it. 0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:10.040 Let's go. Another guy who kind of you know, sticks 0:10:10.040 --> 0:10:12.160 out like a sore thumb when you start doing this 0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:17.280 is his teammate, Freddy Peralto eleven point seven k per nine, 0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:21.160 five ERA, the x FIP three h five. I know 0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:22.800 when you look at this list, Bogs, there are some 0:10:22.840 --> 0:10:25.040 guys too that you know. We're you know, the high 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:27.319 ERA and the x VIP are close. But when you're 0:10:27.360 --> 0:10:29.600 looking for guys right off the top, to me, this 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:32.680 is the perfect way to start buying guys. Another guy 0:10:32.760 --> 0:10:36.800 is Ordwardo Rodriguez, who everybody knows. I love. Eduardo Rodriguez 0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:39.079 is the weather gets warmer, He's gonna get hotter. He 0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:41.199 had a good start last week. And I'm telling you 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:43.240 right now this is another guy. K per nine is 0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:45.880 around nine right now, the ERA is a four and 0:10:45.920 --> 0:10:48.120 a half. The x FIP at three eight two. So 0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:50.400 any of these guys are somebody else in terms of 0:10:50.400 --> 0:10:52.400 that differential stick out to you as a good buy 0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:53.680 low from a pitching standpoint. 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:57.240 Yeah, I mean, the the biggest discrepancy that I really 0:10:57.240 --> 0:10:59.480 see here is outside of the guys that you mentioned, 0:10:59.480 --> 0:11:01.680 because the time I'm looking through here, I'm like, Oh, 0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:04.360 Joe got that guy. Joe got that guy, Stephen Mattz. 0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:08.040 His x FIP is two nine two is era is seven. Uh, 0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:10.600 so it looks like he's gonna come back. I love 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:11.520 the Eduardo call. 0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:14.959 I keep. I'm in one ten man league, and. 0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:17.920 I keep hovering over drop on Eduardo, I keep, and 0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:20.080 then I go, I can't do it. 0:11:20.120 --> 0:11:20.880 I can't do it. 0:11:21.240 --> 0:11:22.840 You know, as soon as you don't do it, that'd 0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:23.320 be silly. 0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:25.319 As soon as Rio comes back, though, I mean, he's 0:11:25.320 --> 0:11:27.880 definitely he's by far my worst picture, you know. I mean, 0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:29.679 I haven't like it's a ten man, so I'm not 0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:32.320 dropping him for cool chat or anything like that. But uh, 0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:34.760 you know, uh, there are some guys I would definitely 0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:36.800 drop him for. And looking at twelve man, I added 0:11:36.840 --> 0:11:38.959 cool Chat the other day too, because that guy's been great. 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:41.200 But yeah, I think Woodrif por Alta, those are the 0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:45.600 biggest ones by far of the fip beaters here, And. 0:11:45.840 --> 0:11:47.640 The one that's important to me is that Caper nine. 0:11:47.760 --> 0:11:50.240 Like if a guy's got a good Caper nine, I 0:11:50.280 --> 0:11:52.720 think these things start to turn back around. Good Caper nine, 0:11:52.720 --> 0:11:54.960 good xhip. That's what I'm looking for. Hundred Green's another 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:58.760 one too. Twelve point six k per nine eight seven 0:11:58.800 --> 0:12:02.160 to one x is it four? Okay? Like you could 0:12:02.160 --> 0:12:05.000 be a four yard a bunch of guys. It's just 0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:07.880 I think that for a young pitcher because yeah, they 0:12:07.880 --> 0:12:10.640 have limited innings, and I think that's limiting. 0:12:11.840 --> 0:12:14.560 Yeah, it's so flat, and so I think there's gonna 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:16.880 be days where he just goes out and dazzles, and 0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:18.760 there's gonna be days where he goes out and just 0:12:18.840 --> 0:12:21.960 gets ripped. So because he also the ballpark is not 0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:25.080 great for him, so you know, uh, those home games 0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:27.920 could get start getting real ugly, real quick. 0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:29.200 So he's one of those guys. 0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:32.680 I'm just less inclined, you know, I Matt's Matt's you know, 0:12:32.800 --> 0:12:35.800 e r A under three e r A U X 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:39.160 fix fit pit excuse me? Under three? Uh e r 0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:41.720 A over seven. That's not that that's too big of 0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:43.880 a discrepancy. That's gonna come back real quick. 0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:46.560 All right, let's have a little trivia for the peanuts 0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:49.160 and Crackerjacks. And remember, if you want to get in 0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:51.000 on this and hang out and be a Peanut and Crackerjack, 0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:53.679 you have to subscribe to our YouTube channel YouTube dot 0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:57.720 com Slash Fantasy Pros m LP. Today's trivia question is 0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:00.880 after show Tony hit his first and slam, who's the 0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:03.760 Angel's career leader in Grand Slams? And the hints I'm 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:06.960 gonna give everybody it's not Mike Trout, So there you go. 0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:09.240 So I'm taking the big guy off the board. It's 0:13:09.240 --> 0:13:12.760 not Trout. Clearly it's not Otani. Who's the career leader 0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:15.920 in Angels Grand slams? And yes, it is somebody in 0:13:16.000 --> 0:13:18.240 recent memory. You know this person. It's not somebody from 0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:19.960 the six h Just can I just. 0:13:19.880 --> 0:13:22.520 Tell you how proud I am that you have not 0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:26.960 made the dad pun of Trout passing Salmon on the 0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:30.000 all time Angel Stadium home run list. 0:13:30.120 --> 0:13:32.720 I just like it would have been a step too far. 0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:35.160 I can't believe you didn't say it, and I'm just 0:13:35.240 --> 0:13:37.640 incredibly proud. I feel like we're working through these dad 0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:38.880 jokes and I appreciate it. 0:13:39.720 --> 0:13:42.960 Well, look, I appreciate that you appreciate it. And I 0:13:42.960 --> 0:13:45.480 imagine that you thought that it was pretty fishy of 0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:46.319 me that I did. 0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:50.360 Oh man, the two steps forward, one step back. I mean, 0:13:50.400 --> 0:13:53.959 it's just the way we go. So all right, all right, Joe, 0:13:54.120 --> 0:13:56.200 you got me, You got the strats. 0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:58.520 It was like shooting fish in a barrel there, and 0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:02.000 I did it to come to me and I said, 0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:03.960 you know what, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna say no, 0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:06.480 it's not Tim Salmon. Everybody in the chat. I see 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:08.480 the chat going crazy with the Tim Salmon. It's not 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:12.400 the Tim Salmon. But you're close, you're getting warmer. So 0:14:12.520 --> 0:14:14.000 there you go. All right, let's get to some of 0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:16.079 the zeros while you guys start to figure out the trivia. 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:19.000 Nessa Cortes, I'm sorry, the heroes, and then we'll get 0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:22.400 to the zeros. The heroes. Nessa Cortez eleven k's four 0:14:22.440 --> 0:14:25.480 walk seven in Unbelievable Ranger Swarz, we talked about him 0:14:25.480 --> 0:14:28.560 being good to urious four k's I'll give up eleven 0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:31.000 hits though in the two hundred runs against the Pirates, 0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:32.560 Like I don't want to give up eleven hits against 0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:36.040 the pirates. Hey, that's just embarrassing. Are we seeing a 0:14:36.120 --> 0:14:40.000 Jose Kintana renaissance bogs because he was a two seven 0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:42.440 o e er Right now, I don't know what to 0:14:42.480 --> 0:14:44.880 make of this guy. 0:14:44.120 --> 0:14:47.840 You know, I just I can't buy Jose Cantana is 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:51.600 here to absolutely eat up innings. So the thing is 0:14:52.120 --> 0:14:56.200 you can't roster him because sure he'll go six and 0:14:56.360 --> 0:14:58.600 give up none and have a good start every once 0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:01.520 in a while, but he's also going six even if 0:15:01.520 --> 0:15:03.720 he gives has to give up eight or nine. So 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:06.320 he is just he's going to be in there to 0:15:06.360 --> 0:15:09.200 eat up innings so that they don't absolutely tax this bullpen, 0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:11.360 and that is his job, so he is. 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:12.040 Going to wear it. 0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:14.800 So we hope that he keeps pitching well, but I 0:15:14.880 --> 0:15:16.560 don't expect him to keep pitching well. 0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:20.880 All right. Also, it is not Troy Gloss a very 0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:24.520 good answer, but you're very warm, and it's not Albert Poole. 0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:28.080 So we continue to go through here. Paul Blackburn, who 0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:32.040 mayor hates, just keeps on pitching pretty well. Is he 0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:34.280 al rays at one seven four? He's four to Oh. 0:15:34.400 --> 0:15:36.080 I know it's against the Tigers, and yes, I do 0:15:36.160 --> 0:15:40.360 think you should sell high, but Paul Paul Blackburn. 0:15:40.600 --> 0:15:42.480 Paul Blackburn is the guy that you add you just 0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:44.440 leave him on your roster until he has like three 0:15:44.520 --> 0:15:46.720 bad starts in a row. Because he's been so good. 0:15:46.960 --> 0:15:48.800 I've got him roster in the ALE Only. I just 0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:50.440 picked him up after his second start and. 0:15:50.640 --> 0:15:52.520 That's a great spot to have him at ALE Only. 0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:54.960 Yeah, this guy is going to be great. 0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:56.880 Yeah, and he holds a little more value in those 0:15:56.920 --> 0:15:59.280 leagues two and it's a sixteen man Ale only two. 0:15:59.320 --> 0:16:01.600 So it's oh God, why do you hate yourself? 0:16:01.600 --> 0:16:04.720 And well that we do for in this league. 0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:06.560 We have an AL in an NL, I'm like middle 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:08.640 of the pack in AL, but I'm fourth in ANL. 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:10.720 So I just want to win one of those. I 0:16:10.720 --> 0:16:11.560 haven't won one yet. 0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:15.600 But uh yeah, man, Blackburn, if you can get anything rosterable, 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:17.440 if you can get some saves you need or stolen 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:19.560 base or something like, go get it. 0:16:19.600 --> 0:16:21.720 But I just don't expect it to happen. 0:16:22.800 --> 0:16:24.760 By the way, Mike Mayor from the Dentist Chair sell 0:16:24.840 --> 0:16:28.400 hi on Paul Blackburn, guys stinks. So somebody, somebody put 0:16:28.440 --> 0:16:30.360 Mike Mayor under please. 0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:34.000 What did Paul Blackburn take Mike Mayor's spot in the right. 0:16:35.640 --> 0:16:37.760 He hates him because I've been right about him and 0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:42.920 every week he's good. And I told everybody yesterday that, yeah, 0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:45.120 on DraftKings, he was like seven and a half, and 0:16:45.160 --> 0:16:46.880 I'm like, look, seven and a half, you can go 0:16:46.920 --> 0:16:49.600 get rodn and and put Blackburn in and just go 0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:51.440 to town. And if Blackburn gets you to the w 0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:56.040 good shades Kopek. I know seven case for Kopek and six. 0:16:56.200 --> 0:16:58.520 His r R is under one at point ninety three. 0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:00.840 Cinderguard all of a sudden. The strikeouts coming back a 0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:02.960 little bit yesterday against the Rays, that's a good sign 0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:05.639 for him. Kyle Hendrix, we've mentioned him and Rodin being 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:08.760 very good. The hitters yesterday besides the Angels guys Bryce 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:10.520 Harper three for four, no home run for me, just 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:12.280 three for four, so I was right. He hit the 0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:15.800 ball over the ballpark, but unfortunately not out of the ballpark. 0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:18.359 Also got another steal his fourth of the year. Rehys 0:17:18.400 --> 0:17:21.159 Hoskins at a home run to Brian Hayes, had a 0:17:21.240 --> 0:17:23.679 steel when was three for five. Brendon Drury two for 0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:26.040 five with a homer. Josh Naylor had a day for 0:17:26.080 --> 0:17:29.159 the Ages and your daily Kwan one for five, but 0:17:29.200 --> 0:17:30.480 a stolen base for the. 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:33.080 Quant take the stolem base for sure. 0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:37.840 Let's please have this, Let's please have this be the 0:17:37.840 --> 0:17:39.399 renaissance of Hoskins power. 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:39.720 Please. 0:17:39.880 --> 0:17:42.320 That's that's all I want. So I've got him roster 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:46.560 in too many spots. So Gavin Hirsch has got it. 0:17:46.560 --> 0:17:50.800 It is Garrett Anderson. The most grand slams in Angel's history. 0:17:50.840 --> 0:17:53.360 Garrett Anderson was a really good player for a very 0:17:53.400 --> 0:17:57.560 long time, underrated. If Garrett Anderson played for the Yankees, 0:17:57.560 --> 0:17:59.600 people would talk about him like he was Bernie Williams. 0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:00.560 I'm telling you right. 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:02.679 Now, they would have. 0:18:03.240 --> 0:18:06.040 I just remember always having Garrett Anderson rule of banias 0:18:06.040 --> 0:18:10.800
