WEBVTT - Leading Off May 29th, 2025 (Ep. 1028) 0:00:05.280 --> 0:00:08.559 Welcome in everybody to Fantasy Pros MLB. This is leading 0:00:08.600 --> 0:00:10.680 off live. We are here on our Twitch, Twitch dot 0:00:10.720 --> 0:00:13.440 tv slash Fantasy Pros. It's me and of course the 0:00:13.480 --> 0:00:15.560 Welsh and all of you, the Peanuts and the Cracker 0:00:15.640 --> 0:00:18.920 Jacks Welsh. Before we get into baseball today, we got 0:00:18.920 --> 0:00:21.200 a light slate of games, but a lot of stuff 0:00:21.200 --> 0:00:23.400 to get to. A ton of injury news is breaking 0:00:23.440 --> 0:00:26.280 to a lot of stuff we're gonna go through. I 0:00:26.320 --> 0:00:28.280 want to tell a story this morning, and I want 0:00:28.280 --> 0:00:31.040 you to see. I want to get your temperature on 0:00:31.080 --> 0:00:33.600 this and tell me was I right? Was I wrong? 0:00:35.040 --> 0:00:38.879 As is my want my normal routine, I get up 0:00:38.960 --> 0:00:41.160 very early, usually around six am. I put the show 0:00:41.200 --> 0:00:43.760 together for the day. I do a couple things, get 0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:46.720 the kiddo's off to school right, go to the gym 0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:48.880 for a couple hours, come back, do the show right. 0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:51.600 While's at the gym today and I was on a 0:00:51.600 --> 0:00:53.040 machine and it was a guy across from me on 0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:55.120 a machine. And to give you a visual image of 0:00:55.120 --> 0:00:57.880 what this guy looked like, he looked like, I would 0:00:57.960 --> 0:01:01.440 say his face was similar to the character Hoggle from 0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:03.800 the movie Labyrinth. Now, if you don't know who that is. 0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:07.360 You google it, you get this guy's face. I'm not 0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:12.080 a big germaphobe person. I'm not like germophobe like, I'm 0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:14.320 pretty good about that stuff like things are gross, Okay, 0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:18.160 it's gross. Not a big germaphobe I did. However, watch 0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:20.920 this guy right across from me. He's on like a 0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:23.040 it's a machine where it's doing like the squats and stuff, 0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:26.240 and you're holding the handles right and he sneezes, doesn't 0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:28.479 cover anything, just sneezes out in the air, and I'm 0:01:28.480 --> 0:01:31.880 like Jesus, all right. He then goes back to his 0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:35.160 next set, sneezes again, this time in his hands, and 0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:37.600 takes his hands and puts them right back on the handles. Now, 0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:41.440 mind you, there are these these spray bottles everywhere, and 0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:44.360 he's got the towel that you can get at the 0:01:44.360 --> 0:01:45.959 gym and then you put the towels in the thing 0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:47.960 and they wash his towels and I'm waiting for him 0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:50.920 to wipe it down. Doesn't wipe it down. He moves 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:53.320 on to the next thing. Now he's right across from 0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:56.080 the old station. I go all the way, get the 0:01:56.120 --> 0:01:59.240 spray bottle, wipe the handles down. And look at him 0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:03.480 as I'm doing it. I basically germ shamed him. Was 0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:05.920 I wrong or was I in the right to germ 0:02:05.960 --> 0:02:06.760 shame this person? 0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:11.080 Yeah? Fire him into the sun. That's those are those savages. 0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:13.360 Don't need to be here. Fire him into the sun. 0:02:13.440 --> 0:02:17.600 Joe, you were right, So knucking is with me if 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:19.639 you're in the comment. And I mean, and I looked 0:02:19.639 --> 0:02:21.520 at him, and I gave him like the Larry David 0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:24.040 like I'm cleaning them, and I'm looking at the handles 0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:27.359 and I'm cleaning. I'm looking at the guy like really, really. 0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:29.200 Are you croud of this? There? I would give deaths. 0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:33.440 So I completely I mean, look, it's one thing. You sneeze, Okay, 0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:35.640 he sneeze. This happened when you do the second knees 0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:37.280 go to your hands and then go to the handles 0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:41.480 and then you don't do the wipe, incorrigible like And 0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:46.680 so I completely shamed. I shamed germophobe cleaned something today 0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:48.079 and I just didn't know how to feel about it. 0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:50.119 And I wanted to get your point of view. 0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:52.240 You were, you were in the right. We're gonna shame 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:54.440 some pictures, We're gonna shame some players here and. 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:55.520 Just shame some people. 0:02:55.520 --> 0:02:57.200 You know what, All of them are in the right, 0:02:57.639 --> 0:02:58.200 all of them. 0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:03.440 Forward to four minutes when the show really starts. He 0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:06.000 should take you two comments. Let's get to the headlines. 0:03:06.560 --> 0:03:10.200 Sometimes I need validation. Also needing validation, Sandi al Contra, 0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:12.160 Oh god, Welsh. We were on the Q and a 0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:12.760 live stream. 0:03:12.880 --> 0:03:14.520 If you missed it on our YouTube channel, you can 0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:17.560 go back and watch six runs we were on live 0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:20.919 during this four innings for him. No decision for the Pirates. 0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:24.760 I mean it's not good. Seven hits, allowed four earned 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:27.520 runs in a six consecutive start. He threw just forty 0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:30.400 four of seventy one pitches for strikes. The velocity is 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:32.760 still fine, like that's still kind of where it was 0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:36.160 pre Tommy John. But somehow he got one swinging strike 0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:38.680 in the Kaire contest. I don't even know if that's possible. 0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:41.800 Had to do. He does get the Rockies next Tuesday. 0:03:42.160 --> 0:03:45.839 If he's not good against the Rockies, I say, even 0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:47.880 in twelve team leagues, I think you could drop him 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:50.320 at this point. They have no keeper value. But I 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:52.800 want to start with the redraft scenarios. We said in 0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:55.240 ten team already, but now we're in the twelve. If 0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:57.119 he's not good against the Rockies, Welsh, I think that's 0:03:57.160 --> 0:03:59.320 it for me. What do you think it might already 0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:00.440 be yet it is? 0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:03.960 It's tough to do what he did. Like, it's funny 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:06.160 when you go to Savant and you look like the 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:09.040 game score, you'll see like the leaders, and then you 0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:11.480 see here are the leaders from that game as far 0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:14.640 by the way, yeah that's a live stream joke. But 0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:16.360 you go and look at the swing and whiff leaders 0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:18.920 in that game. Number one was David Morgan with six. 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:24.240 Number two was Ronnie Henriquez with three, and he wanted 0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:26.400 to say his name right, And there's a couple other 0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:29.719 guys and you notice the fifth highest had two swing 0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:32.120 and whiffs. So you're like, did I pick the wrong game? 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:36.080 That know, because as you mentioned, Sandy had one whiff 0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:39.880 in that entire game and it was on his change up, which, 0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:43.040 by the way, here's a big problem. Twenty seven percent 0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:47.080 zone percentage. The number one pitch you throw doesn't even 0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:50.120 have a thirty percent getting into the zone rate. Well, 0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:53.080 guess what, it's gonna make everything else stinky. And it did. 0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:55.919 No whiff's on the fastball, none on the sinker, his 0:04:56.040 --> 0:05:00.160 four seam fastball had a thirteen percent called strike, and 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:03.200 with percentage, that's an important one to look at. Thirteen 0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:06.560 percent is crazy. He has nothing out like it doesn't 0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:08.600 matter with the velocity. It reminds me of the old 0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:10.719 Hunter Green thing where it was like, great, you could 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:12.320 throw a hundred, but you throw it right down the plate. 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:16.839 There is nothing that these guys are worried about. The 0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:20.360 change up, is it? Yeah, the change up doesn't hit 0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:22.560 the zone. You don't need to offer at it. Then 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:26.680 he throws two other fastball like four steamer sinkers, and 0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:28.640 there's just like a little bit of slider and curveball. 0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:32.520 Hatters have adjusted. He doesn't have the stuff. I don't 0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:35.039 know what the fix is. He doesn't look right. It 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:38.159 seems like if there was a fix to be had, 0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:40.520 like they should be open to it. But I don't 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:42.120 think they have time, and I don't think they're going 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:43.640 to figure it out. And you said it on the 0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:47.080 live stream. We need a Phantomiel stint. We need him 0:05:47.080 --> 0:05:49.080 to figure something out, change the mix. 0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:51.440 Do something because we're gonna talk about him later. He's 0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:55.200 coming back in one more rehab start. So I made 0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:57.960 it yesterday. He was good. So we're talking about again, 0:05:58.000 --> 0:06:00.600 he'll have that start against the Rockies. See if he's 0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.440 bad against the Rockies, the il stn't happening, and Urperess 0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:05.480 is taking that spot in the rotation, just temporarily to 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.560 see how things go mentally, get a break physically, get 0:06:08.560 --> 0:06:11.000 a break, Let him work on some stuff technically, let 0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:13.920 him work on you know, some mechanical stuff too. I mean, 0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:14.640 maybe that's it. 0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:16.880 This cased him the best change up in baseball. This 0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:19.200 is like the best change up in all of baseball. 0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:22.960 And that change up just had a thirteen percent with 0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:23.839 free he threw. 0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:26.520 His economic Yeah, it troll everything. He was such a 0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:28.560 great he was. It was a throwback to the art 0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:32.080 of pitching. And now he looks like somebody just throw away. 0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:34.400 I think you can dump him in twelve too. Like, 0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:36.799 I get what you're saying makes a lot of sense. 0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:39.440 It is literally the best matchup you could possibly have 0:06:39.480 --> 0:06:41.719 coming up next against Colorado, and that would be the 0:06:41.760 --> 0:06:44.040 litmus test. But if you need to move on now, 0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:46.600 I think we're we're far beyond like needing to hold 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:49.760 on to him anymore. We don't know insight when things 0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:52.080 are gonna get fixed. I will say, though, he really 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:54.080 does fall apart later in games, and that's been a 0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:55.559 big thing. And I don't know if it's the pitch 0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:58.760 mix that he uses there, but it's like fourth inning, 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:01.280 it's kind of like with the Allan. Yeah, Gallon falls 0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:02.840 apart later in the game as well. 0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:06.520 A contrac Gosmin or Nola ten team rotal keeper. See 0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:08.520 this is the problem too, like in my home league 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:10.840 where I have him, he's a keeper, or he was 0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:12.880 a keeper. He was like a two dollars salary guy 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:14.720 because I picked him up, and you know, you hate 0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:16.520 to say, I'm not just going to abandon that value, 0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:18.800 but I mean, I don't know, man, I mean, Gosbin's 0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:21.440 a little older. Nola is probably the one of the 0:07:21.480 --> 0:07:22.280 three that I would keep. 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:26.960 He's a suck. He is santander ay alcohol contra. 0:07:28.000 --> 0:07:29.920 No, I don't think he is. I think he'll come 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:32.520 back from there again. II else, didn't you know you 0:07:32.560 --> 0:07:34.720 come back? And Okay, I would take Nola of those three, 0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:37.520 but Gosmin is the most immediately helpful right now, that's 0:07:37.560 --> 0:07:39.760 for sure. What do you think about your prescence? He 0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:43.680 was trying to mimic a contra. I'm not worried about that. 0:07:43.760 --> 0:07:47.320 He looks terrific so far. Is it time to drop 0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:50.880 Alcontra McClain again, we've said in ten teams yes, and 0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:53.720 twelve team we're getting to that point. It's getting to 0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:57.040 a cutting season because you can't go eighty games with 0:07:57.080 --> 0:08:00.200 players who have been terrible. George Kirby also terrible. I 0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:03.040 hate what we really started out. Don't worry. It gets better. 0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:05.600 We're starting off some negativity on the show, but it. 0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:09.120 Will get just shaming people. 0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:14.080 I'm not clean handlebars and give you the stink guy. 0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:16.880 At the same time, Dude, this is gross. It was 0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:18.600 a gross looking huge you know what. I don't care 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:20.280 who it was. I don't care if it was like 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:23.560 some jacked dude or some pretty girl. You sneeze on 0:08:23.600 --> 0:08:26.000 your hands and you touch the things. It's gross. Okay, 0:08:26.080 --> 0:08:27.200 that's just directly gross. 0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:27.800 Don't do that. 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:33.040 Ill. George Kirby Ill, six runs, five innings, a loss 0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:35.480 to the Nats. First start wasn't good. This one wasn't 0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:38.839 good either. Uh, your panic level on, George Kirby. You're 0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:40.199 a Kirby guy, Welsh. 0:08:40.280 --> 0:08:42.120 Yeah, I'm less of a Kirby guy than I would 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:44.040 Last year. I was like the Kirby guy, and that 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:48.600 did not work out. I'm I've gotten annoyed with Kirby, 0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:52.800 especially his insistence on like I don't want guys, and 0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:54.600 you know, I feel like that's taken away from the 0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:58.439 swinging missness of his game. But I'm a little bit 0:08:58.679 --> 0:09:01.640 worried about it. Vila was down kind of across the board. 0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:04.520 His sinker was down a mile per hour. He's not 0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:07.600 throwing his split finger like he did last year. It 0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:09.960 looks like and that all the velo just across the 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:14.599 board was down. As far as the effectiveness goes, he 0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:16.880 had kind of like the mix that you want, and 0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:20.040 he runs you know, heavy zone on his fastball and slider. 0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:24.559 His curve and his splitter both were like really low zoned, 0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:27.160 and guys weren't offering at it. So it's got to 0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:30.240 be something about like how he's pitching right now that 0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:33.160 you know, those offerings that are supposed to get the whiffs, 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:36.240 they're so far out it's not inducing anything. And he 0:09:36.360 --> 0:09:38.800 has to hit the zone all the time that guys 0:09:38.840 --> 0:09:42.000 are making contact on him. You just you need some 0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:45.280 more swinging with stuff. And I thought the splitter usage 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:47.240 would be that for him. It doesn't seem to be 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:49.960 up there. He doesn't seem to feel right. I don't 0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:53.440 know's it's two games in. I'm way more worried about 0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:56.280 Sandy than I am Kirby. But based on that question, 0:09:56.360 --> 0:09:58.560 it's one hundred percent Kirby rest of season. It is 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:02.560 two starts coming off of this injury. It's without no question, Kirby. 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:05.480 You are way more I see. I'm not without question 0:10:05.559 --> 0:10:08.720 on this one. Cody and Anaheim as asking Kirby or 0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:12.520 Warren rest of season. Warren's been really good, especially if 0:10:12.520 --> 0:10:14.199 this last stretch with the strikeouts washed. I don't know 0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:16.480 if you've noticed the last couple starts for Will Warren 0:10:16.640 --> 0:10:18.839 strikeout ry wise has been terrific. I think he's at 0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:21.480 twenty six strikeouts and fourteen eight something to that effect. 0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:24.200 It was kind of like, WHOA. I didn't quite even 0:10:24.240 --> 0:10:27.200 realize that because I was looking at him in a league, 0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:29.240 just you know, doing some research off. I'll pull up 0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:31.240 the Will Warren stats here over his last seven games 0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:34.640 to just be super specific. But I am not slammed 0:10:34.679 --> 0:10:37.040 on Kirby on this at all. Warren pitches for the Yankees. 0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:37.800 It's a good situation. 0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:39.720 Why are you doing this to all then, just say, 0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:40.880 George Kirby, But. 0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:44.400 I say, I just want to pull up the stats. 0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:46.320 Here we go, last seven games here for Will Warren 0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:49.160 A three six ERA, thirty five innings, fifty one strikeouts. 0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:52.960 I sold them short a little bit, eleven walks, a 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:55.440 one point two zero whip. I'm fine keeping Will Warren. 0:10:55.480 --> 0:10:58.000 I'm not waiting for Kirby to figure things out. I'm 0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:00.599 just we're on opposite ends on that one. This is 0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:03.160 this is seven. You know, we're looking at staring down 0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:05.640 the barrel at seventy games into the season now, and 0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:08.320 my patience level is just way thinner lands of colors. 0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:11.640 Let's get to something positive, shall we? Twelve strikeouts? So 0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:14.360 what is this going to do to him and his 0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:18.120 free agent budget spenditure this weekend after the twelve strikeout 0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:20.040 performance because he's STI floating around in a ton of leagues. 0:11:20.080 --> 0:11:22.360 Well, I think it's going to make it go quite high. 0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:25.840 And you know what, I'm kind of here for it 0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:28.080 on the season. The numbers, I mean, this was like 0:11:28.120 --> 0:11:31.160 the penultimate game for him, but he's only had one 0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:33.440 that one bat outing and it was the second one 0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:36.560 up against the Reds. But the last couple you know, 0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:39.400 he's stacked up his innings. He has twenty strikeouts over 0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:42.800 his last two starts. Walks are kind of a constant 0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:45.760 issue with him, you know, back in the day when 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:48.840 he's running those like three eras good strikeout numbers. He's 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:52.080 up to twenty eight point six percent k percentage. The 0:11:52.160 --> 0:11:55.240 walks are still way too high, and it's like it's 0:11:55.280 --> 0:11:57.560 really tough to see which direction this is going to go. 0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:01.600 But because he got those innings up and he was 0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:04.319 able to get to six, you can see the strikeout stuff. 0:12:04.480 --> 0:12:08.440 You know, his stuff yesterday was absolutely dominant, really really 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:12.160 heavy slider. His curveball had as a fifty eight percent 0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:14.800 whiff rate on the season so far. So those breaking 0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:17.440 pitches get it. I think he's worth spending on, and 0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:20.720 I would, but I don't know if I'm willing to 0:12:20.720 --> 0:12:22.559 break the bank because a guy still has a five 0:12:22.600 --> 0:12:27.480 VRA expected over four. He is the most unhealthy of unhealthy. 0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:29.680 I mean he he lives on the il. 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:32.520 So I don't know how to start the bidding where this. 0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:35.960 Let's see, you've got fifty dollars left in your fab 0:12:36.000 --> 0:12:38.080 budget out of one hundred of this junker in the 0:12:38.120 --> 0:12:40.000 air twelve dollars. 0:12:40.559 --> 0:12:43.160 It's funny. See, I think it's already kind of pushing it. 0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:45.400 I would say fifteen would be the max. But I 0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:47.439 gonna be honest with you. Before you said anything, I 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.360 was thinking ten, Like you know, so that's like twenty 0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:52.920 thinking twelve twenty percent of fat the game you. 0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:56.400 Play, Yeah, this is the game you play. Danielle Palencia 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:59.079 truck out two clean inning for him against the Rockies. 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:02.400 Also closer news, Camillo daval is going to be back 0:13:02.480 --> 0:13:05.000 to the closing job. We kind of were ahead of 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:06.520 the game on this one. We told you to stash 0:13:06.600 --> 0:13:09.120 him a couple of weeks ago. Good for him. He 0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:11.000 used to have this job and then he was very 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:12.600 good in it, and then he had one bad year, 0:13:13.000 --> 0:13:15.160 lost the job. Now he's got it back. I don't 0:13:15.160 --> 0:13:16.600 think he's gonna give it back. I know some people 0:13:16.640 --> 0:13:19.200 think it's temporary. I don't think it's temporary. I think 0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:22.040 Deval's gonna keep this all year. He's been terrific. Tanner 0:13:22.040 --> 0:13:25.200 Scott has not been terrific. Four runs, two outs, fifth 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:28.080 blown save. We talked about this yesterday too. I think 0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:30.040 there's an opportunity to buy here on Tanner Scott because 0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:32.320 I just don't know where the pivot point is. So 0:13:32.360 --> 0:13:34.000 I just think they Grin and Barrett here, what do 0:13:34.040 --> 0:13:34.320 you think? 0:13:34.520 --> 0:13:37.560 Yeah, actually, an interesting like, who'd you rather between those three? 0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:39.880 You could just start rank them. I agree, we said 0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:42.320 it on the live stream. I'm probably a little bit 0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:45.319 more likely to buy on Tanner Scott. Like he has 0:13:45.559 --> 0:13:48.160 like a two percent walk rate. It's super frustrating, but 0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:50.880 he has like a super low walk rate. Strikeouts are there, 0:13:51.000 --> 0:13:54.120 they keep going back to him. It's a very short, 0:13:54.160 --> 0:13:57.880 isolated stint where his last it's like three of the 0:13:57.920 --> 0:13:59.760 last five or three of the last six outings have 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:02.320 been really and he's given up runs. But I also 0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:05.559 think that's in line where like i'd mentioned on the stream, 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:07.800 Tory Levello had done, where a lot of managers will 0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:09.559 kind of give them the benefit of doubt. It's a 0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:11.800 short stint. We got to get them right, and he'll 0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:14.400 still have that opportunity. And because you're a Dodger, he 0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:17.400 would still be my top guy. I would go Tanner 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:20.200 Scott and this might be silly Devaul, and then I 0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:21.760 would go Polancy. And by the way, I think you 0:14:21.800 --> 0:14:28.920 call them Dan Danielle Daniel, Polancie even though has looked, 0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:31.840 you know, pretty lights out in outside of the first 0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:34.200 save opportunity. But that would be my rank of them, 0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:36.480 and I know a lot of people wouldn't feel comfortable 0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:37.120 with that Tanner. 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:40.280 Giving a fun Hispanic emphascist. I'm doing the dual lingo 0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:43.280 now on a daily basis. I think that's just seeping 0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:45.720 into my brain because I would be saying looking at 0:14:45.720 --> 0:14:47.960 that name and saying that Danielle la Palencia. 0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:50.680 But is that the one where you have like the 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:51.640 daily tasks? 0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:56.040 Yeah, yeah, yeah, back and forth, trying to get better 0:14:56.120 --> 0:14:59.040 in my Spanish, you know, so I can communicate more 0:14:59.080 --> 0:15:01.640 with relatives, my girlfriend. That's what I'm trying to do. 0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:06.040 Gavin Sheets two for three to run Homer three Ribby's. 0:15:06.080 --> 0:15:09.160 We were going to talk about him on the trade show. 0:15:09.160 --> 0:15:11.800 We ran out of time. But Gavin Sheets just eleven 0:15:11.840 --> 0:15:14.720 home runs, just never stops. Here's one that's interesting. 0:15:14.760 --> 0:15:16.440 Well, hell are you? I don't want you to go 0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:18.720 past Sheets because there's something funny. Are you still on Sheets? 0:15:19.640 --> 0:15:21.480 We can be okay. I just want to put the 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:23.120 sheets together, you and me if you want to for 0:15:23.240 --> 0:15:23.960 a little bit longer. 0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:28.200 Joe Musgrove, it is, it's my favorite nickname. It's my 0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:30.880 favorite nickname. Gavin Sheets. The other day was doing an 0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:34.640 interview and Joe Musgrove, who's just like hanging with the team, 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:37.320 not doing anything. I guess right now, he ran out 0:15:37.400 --> 0:15:41.200 and he and he yelled, this is what was it? 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:46.240 This is dairy Bonds. They're calling Gavin Sheets dairy Bonds, 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:50.000 and it's my favorite nickname and I want the shirts 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:54.040 of it. So Gavin Sheets aka dairy Bonds is the best. 0:15:55.120 --> 0:15:57.880 I like that. That's a good one. Also messed up 0:15:57.880 --> 0:15:59.680 potentially here. Keep this in mind too. This is a 0:15:59.720 --> 0:16:03.920 little whacky here. Jackson Job three runs four and two thirds, 0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:06.400 not great. Velo is down by a mile and a half, okay, 0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:09.960 But also after the game, nobody talked to reporters. He 0:16:10.000 --> 0:16:11.920 wasn't in the clubhouse, so I don't know if this 0:16:12.000 --> 0:16:16.600 is an injury thing or whatever it is. It doesn't 0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:18.520 feel good to me. I just want to put this 0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:20.040 out there to you when it comes to job. But 0:16:20.080 --> 0:16:22.120 should people be concerned here? Yeah? 0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:25.280 Absolutely usual. I mean you can have starts where it's 0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:27.720 you know, things are off About a mile and a 0:16:27.760 --> 0:16:31.000 half per hour on your fastball is a very concerning thing. 0:16:31.600 --> 0:16:35.200 Usually and likely it'll have, like you know, connections to 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:37.400 arm issues. But here's what I would also point out, 0:16:38.200 --> 0:16:40.920 Job hasn't been good like so as far as from 0:16:40.920 --> 0:16:45.000 a fantasy perspective, he has an under eighteen percent K percentage. 0:16:45.080 --> 0:16:47.760 He has a twelve percent walk rate if you play 0:16:47.800 --> 0:16:51.800 the K minus walk percentage game, which is important, that's 0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:54.760 five percent five point actually, I think it's five point 0:16:54.920 --> 0:16:58.560 five percent or five point six percent. That's like horrific. 0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:02.600 That is a horrific number for era. Expected is four 0:17:02.600 --> 0:17:06.120 and a half. Now you're losing Velo on the fastball now, 0:17:06.119 --> 0:17:07.760 I don't think so. I don't think he's very fantasy 0:17:07.760 --> 0:17:10.320 relevant at all, and I think this arm issue is 0:17:10.359 --> 0:17:13.440 something we're gonna have to really really monitor. But also 0:17:13.680 --> 0:17:15.639 he probably shouldn't be on like a ton of teams 0:17:15.720 --> 0:17:18.040 right now. Anyways. I know the upside is fun keeper 0:17:18.080 --> 0:17:21.360 leagues are different, but it's been bad, and things got 0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:22.520 a little bit worse yesterday. 0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:27.199 Yep, certainly have All right, let's continue on here, and 0:17:27.240 --> 0:17:29.520 I want to shout out some of our folks here 0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:33.680 who resubbed Cookie Jubs, Young Mage, all resubbed with prime. 0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:35.840 Don't forget you can do that yourself right now. That way, 0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:37.600 you don't get the ads here when you're watching us 0:17:37.920 --> 0:17:42.040 on our stream on Twitch, which is where we are 0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:44.800 every day Monday through Friday noon Eastern. Let's get to 0:17:44.880 --> 0:17:48.240 some transactions. Logan Evans sent to Triple A. Boo. Kyle 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:50.439 Gibson signs with the Rays. That was kind of interesting. 0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:52.600 And then this is like a deeper league thing. I'm 0:17:52.600 --> 0:17:54.600 just gonna throw it out there. So Scott Kingery was 0:17:54.640 --> 0:17:56.560 recalled from Triple A. He hasn't been in the big 0:17:56.640 --> 0:18:00.400 league since twenty twenty two, but he's been pretty good. 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:02.840 I mean, the Angels got rid of Tim Anderson there, 0:18:02.880 --> 0:18:06.400 they're cleaning house. Karen Paris to Triple A, Tim Anderson gone. 0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:09.920 King Grey's been hitting in a deeper If you're like 0:18:09.960 --> 0:18:11.639 a fifteen team league, is this a guy that you 0:18:11.640 --> 0:18:12.959 would pick up? Do you think he's gonna get any 0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:13.400 playing time? 0:18:13.640 --> 0:18:15.199 He'll get some playing time, but I don't know if 0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:17.720 I buy it. So King Gree was out here in 0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:20.080 Complex a couple of weeks ago. I put out a 0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:23.520 video and I was just remember Scott Kingrey because he 0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:24.080 had a hit. 0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:27.119
