1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,640
Speaker 1: Hello everybody, and welcome back into another episode of the cycle.

2
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 2: I am not Brian Warmley, but I am Mike Mayor.

3
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 1: Ryan is on vacation for the next two weeks before

4
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: I go on vacation for a couple of weeks, and

5
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 1: so this week we have a massive upgrade with Kelly

6
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,960
Speaker 1: Kirby the Wonky Penguin joining the show. Kelly, are you

7
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 1: as excited to join the show as I am? That

8
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 1: Worm is not here?

9
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I figure it's always good to get rid of

10
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 3: some dead weight and bring in somebody that can really help,

11
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 3: like move that boat forward as opposed to sink it.

12
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 3: So I'm glad it's us.

13
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

14
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: And the best part is there's no chance while he's

15
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 1: on vacation that Worm listens to this. So that we

16
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 1: can just say whatever we want, We can change all

17
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: the rules, we can just talk and say anything we

18
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: want about him, and he'll probably never know. Maybe in

19
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: a few weeks when he gets back, he'll listen to this,

20
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,160
Speaker 1: but my guess is he probably won't. He's off doing

21
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: fun things on the East coast in like Virginia and

22
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 1: Delaware and Washington, DC.

23
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:51,879
Speaker 2: Or Baltimore or something like that.

24
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: I think he said something about flying a kite with

25
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,639
Speaker 1: his nephew, so there's just no chance he goes back,

26
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: goes back and listens to this. Just a reminder, your

27
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: best way to show your support for the show in

28
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: a is to go and leave a positive review at

29
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 1: fantasypros dot com slash MLB review and if you have

30
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: a question, we will answer it on the show. And

31
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: we haven't gotten questions in a couple of weeks, but

32
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: we have gotten some nice reviews, so thank you very

33
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: much for that. I especially like when you call out

34
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: the cycle and me personally, which I really enjoy. Which

35
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: someone recently on on a review referred to me as Mayo,

36
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 1: which I found very interesting because not a lot of

37
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: people know that nickname for me, like we use that

38
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: internally at work, and my close friends referred to me

39
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: as Mayo. We're usually on the shows it's Mike Mayor.

40
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 1: In writing, it's Mike Mayor. So someone somewhere knew that

41
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: that was my nickname and referred to me in a review,

42
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: which I appreciate. So let's jump right in for our

43
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: first sement, rounding the bases and for an interesting again,

44
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: Worm's not here.

45
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 2: We can do whatever we.

46
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: Want and so I came up with the segments this week,

47
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: and so one thing I wanted to kind of.

48
00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 2: Try was this start stash and scrap segment.

49
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: And you can use your imagination of what the original

50
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: three words were, but we can't say at least one

51
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: of them on the show.

52
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 2: Probably shouldn't say the other one either.

53
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: One of them is Mary and the other two we'll

54
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: just you know, you can use your imagination, but start

55
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: stash and scrap. And so we're going to pick three

56
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: players who are related and somewhat interesting for a number

57
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: of different reasons and just decide, you know, who do

58
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: we definitely want to start on our teams right now?

59
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: Who do we want to stash, you know, maybe not

60
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: start right now, but keep around, and who are we

61
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 1: willing to scrap? And so the first three names are

62
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 1: Alec Burleson, Josh Low, and say Down Raphaela. So just

63
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: kind of going through those three names, how do you

64
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: view them and how would you kind of.

65
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 2: You know, put them together on this list?

66
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 3: Well, first I would be interested to know like which

67
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 3: one is marry them, does it start or is it stash?

68
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 3: Keep them around for a long time or play them

69
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 3: right away. I'm not really sure. Yeah, So I don't

70
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 3: know what to do with josh Low at all, and

71
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 3: I don't I don't believe I have rostered him pretty

72
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 3: much anywhere at this point. I feel like I would

73
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 3: let someone else take him. The problem is of the three.

74
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 3: I also feel like he's like the most known quantity

75
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 3: right now. I would probably start Burleson Burlson or Burlson,

76
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 3: mostly because he's just been really hot, and I feel

77
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 3: like he's the type of player that we like, pick

78
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 3: him up, ride that out, start him while he's good.

79
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 3: I don't know if I would stash him when he's

80
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 3: done being his his normal hot self. And Rafaela the divorced, Yes,

81
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 3: we would divorce. And Raphael is really interesting because I

82
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 3: think I've I roster him in a variety of leagues

83
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 3: mostly for his positional like flexibility, but he's not exactly

84
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 3: bringing a lot to the table other than some stolen bases.

85
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 3: So he's he's more of my stash I think right now.

86
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 3: But I don't know. Yeah, I guess i'd scrap him.

87
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 3: It's dash Low, and I'll start Burlston while he's hot.

88
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: I think that's where I landed too, So I picked

89
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: these names and we'll get to a few more names

90
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: in a minute. But I picked these names because I

91
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: thought they were really you know, I had them close

92
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: to my rankings for like wildly different reasons. I think

93
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 1: they have different ceilings, and I thought, you know, I

94
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: was just wondering to myself. I couldn't really decide if

95
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 1: I had to pick. And I think it matters if

96
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 1: you're talking Redraft, Dynasty or Keeper, because I would probably

97
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: also scrap Rafaela for the reasons that he said. Although

98
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: he has been a lot better recently and he's gonna

99
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: somewhat quietly probably like hit fifteen plus home runs and

100
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: steal thirty bases, he's just gonna do it while he

101
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: bats two twenty or two ten, and so you're just

102
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,679
Speaker 1: gonna have to live with that. But the Red Sox

103
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: are married to him, you know, to tie it right

104
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: into the segment, see what I did there for the

105
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 1: long term, and like he's just gonna play every day

106
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,160
Speaker 1: no matter what. Like he's not gonna even if he

107
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: bats ninth, He's going to be in line up perpy

108
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 1: day because they want him at center field. They want

109
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 1: you know, they've already signed to an extension, so he's

110
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,359
Speaker 1: an interesting one, but I do you agree short term

111
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: this season only, he's probably the one I would have

112
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: to scrap. I would probably also start or marry. You know,

113
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,119
Speaker 1: I do agree. It's it's not exactly clear whether start

114
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: or stash is is mary in this, but you know

115
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: it's not a it's not a clean one to one comparison,

116
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: but uh no, we'll go with it. I think start

117
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: stash and scrap sounds better runner. But by the way,

118
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: I initially had it as start stash and slash, but

119
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 1: slash sounded a little too violent to me. Yeah, And

120
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: I also found like a scrap is probably more accurate

121
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: because I was like cut slash, it's like a you know, synonym,

122
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 1: but h slash downed a little violent, violent, and it

123
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: wasn't like a great fit.

124
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,359
Speaker 2: So I found scrap, which I think is perfect. No

125
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 2: bias in that opinion there.

126
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: But part of the reason I want to start our

127
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 1: listen is because I am starting him in a lot

128
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 1: of places, just kind of at a desperation, and we

129
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: can get into a longer conversation later about just offense

130
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: being down, especially power around baseball, and how like there's

131
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: just an abundance of pitching because hitting it is down,

132
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: and I'm sure after the All Star Break will have

133
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: new shiny, bouncy balls and offense will be back and

134
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: they'll just chalk, you know, chalk it up to be like, oh,

135
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: the weather's mormer and the ball is flying, or we

136
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 1: definitely didn't adjust the baseballs or anything. You know, don't

137
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: don't look too closely at those seams.

138
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I would.

139
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: I would start Burrowson because he's hot. I think you

140
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: have to stash low just because of what he did

141
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: last year where he batted two ninety two with twenty

142
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: home runs and thirty two stolen bases in only one

143
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty five games, and so he's had some

144
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: injury issues, but I think when you see a ceiling

145
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: like that, even though it's with the Rays and they're

146
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: going to do raise things, he's been batting at the

147
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: pop of that lineup since he came back, and so

148
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: I think you have to stash him. It's just too

149
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 1: early to let go of him. The other name, so

150
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 1: you and I talked earlier this week about you know,

151
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: names to include on this list, and the other name

152
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 1: that I considered instead of RAPHAELI was Nick Castianos.

153
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: So let's replace Rafaelo with Nick cass Does that.

154
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: Change you're thinking of how you you know, how you

155
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: would order these start stash, not slash but scrap.

156
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 3: Yeah. Nick Casios and I this year have had a

157
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 3: we we are really on again off again for the

158
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 3: most part. I think I drafted him everywhere and he

159
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 3: was atrocious in April. And the thing that concerned me

160
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 3: there was that he's not usually a slow starter, so

161
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 3: he typically is actually very good in April and May.

162
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 3: So when he was just not happening, I was like,

163
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 3: oh God, have the wheels fallen off? What do I

164
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 3: do with him? So in our insiders league, which you

165
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 3: know has the playoffs way too early, I dropped him

166
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 3: right away because I was like, it's too short of

167
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 3: a season for us to for me to.

168
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 2: Keep shallow league too. I think that's worth pointing out.

169
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yes, it's perfect for that. That league is great.

170
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 3: If you have any commitment issues whatsoever, Okay, you can

171
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 3: just toss anybody you want to and go get someone else.

172
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 3: So that part, that part is fun. But I did

173
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 3: hold on to him in at least two other leagues

174
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 3: where it's it's like I had baked in something of

175
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 3: a low batting average, but man, I did not see

176
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 3: two fourteen coming. So it's I don't know. I I

177
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 3: think I think I would have to go kind of

178
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 3: the same way. But to me, Cassianos and Burlison sort

179
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 3: of have the same feel to them where I feel

180
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 3: like they could flip at some point where Casianos will

181
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 3: get hot and his batting average would go up, and

182
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 3: he's getting hot, and I go, so, yeah.

183
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 1: Aasanis is getting hot recently. I don't know if you're

184
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: looking at the numbers, but he's eating up. It's hard

185
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: to kind of trust it. But the last couple of weeks.

186
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 2: Yep, beating up.

187
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, No, I have no plans to drop him.

188
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 3: So if I was going to scrap one at that point,

189
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 3: then I guess i'd have to probably scrap bur listen

190
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 3: or try to sell him very high because he does

191
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 3: nothing for me overall. I don't find him to be exciting,

192
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 3: so I think I could let him go.

193
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 2: So that's yeah.

194
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 1: So that's kind of the And that's exactly kind of

195
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: how I was leaning to when we talked about the

196
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: different names. And so it's interesting that Burlson goes from

197
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 1: the start to off the roster, just when you change

198
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: one of the other back end guys, and it's because

199
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: he probably doesn't have the ceiling that the other guys have.

200
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 2: But yeah, but.

201
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: In that shallow league, I probably would have dropped Castianus

202
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: at the same time. And you know, the the waiver wire.

203
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 1: In that league, you can just find hitters every day,

204
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: especially because it's daily lineups, and just like I'm always

205
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: replacing people, yes, in that league, especially pictures, even though

206
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 1: I have some good pictures, I'm always like streaming ones.

207
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: And you can find good hitters like Nick Castianas because

208
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: they're you know.

209
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: They're going to be dropped regularly. Anthony Anthony Santander.

210
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've looked at, you know, the

211
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: free agency recently, but he's been like the top like

212
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 1: quote unquote top available bat for like a month and

213
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: just know what, Tox picked him up.

214
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 2: No one has any interest in Santandier.

215
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, what I would what I do in that league,

216
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 3: in particular, in terms of using our tools, what I

217
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 3: will look at is like waiver assistant, but only for

218
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 3: that week because it's so shallow, So occasionally I can

219
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 3: find someone whose VBR for the week is like single

220
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 3: and he's just sitting out there, and so I'll just

221
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 3: pick him up and with the full intention of scrapping him.

222
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 3: So I feel like bur Listen would fall into that

223
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 3: category where he would have been very high and I

224
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 3: would have just grabbed him and then streamed him and

225
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 3: dropped him immediately.

226
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, it's funny you say that with the

227
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: waiver assistant too, because I was actually talking to someone

228
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: recently and I was like, I wish you could do

229
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: this like by the week instead of just like rest

230
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 1: of season projections, and they were like, you can, and

231
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 1: then I was just like Homer, you know, fading back

232
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: into the bushes, gift. Oh, never mind, I didn't say anything.

233
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: It's okay, yeah, exactly. I also like looking at like

234
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 1: the weekly projections to see because you can highlight. I'll

235
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 1: just go to the weekly projections page and remove anyone

236
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,079
Speaker 1: who's rostered by me or anyone else and just only

237
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: looking available and just like see the green highlights of

238
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: like who can help my struggling teams? Yes, okay, So

239
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 1: the next one we're going to do one more start

240
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 1: stash scrap, which is a lot harder to say now

241
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: that I'm saying it than when I initially wrote it down,

242
00:10:58,120 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 1: and it's it's fun that I just keep repeating it

243
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 1: over again. So we're gonna do three pitchers this time,

244
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 1: who are also very interesting for different reasons. Everyone's favorite

245
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 1: darling right now, Luis Heel, Garrett Crochet, and then Tanner Hawck.

246
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: So how would you break those three down for me?

247
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 2: How would you? How would you rank those?

248
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 3: I feel like we should definitely put the disclaimer out

249
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 3: there that like, I'm way higher on heel than you are,

250
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,439
Speaker 3: and you have done everybody well you I don't know.

251
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 3: You seem to think you're the only one, and I

252
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 3: feel like you haven't met Joe. But I believe at

253
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 3: this point for me with pitching, it's like, yeah, if

254
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 3: I can sell him high, cool, But I also there's

255
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,839
Speaker 3: just not a ton out there that I'm like gonna

256
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 3: go pick up for him. So that's always where it

257
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 3: gets tricky for me, especially when it comes to pitching.

258
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 3: But these three are fascinating. I roster them all over

259
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 3: the place. I saw Garrett Crochet pitch in Toronto a

260
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 3: couple of weeks ago, and he's about He's as lively

261
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 3: as you think he might be with regard to his stuff,

262
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 3: and yeah, the Blue Jays are anemic, but he really

263
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 3: had some life to what he was doing in his

264
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 3: and his expected stats look good. And I've had I've

265
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 3: rostered how in keeper in DYNASTYO leagues for way too

266
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 3: long at this point, so it's nice that he's finally arrived.

267
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 3: So yeah, I don't know, it's hard for me to

268
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 3: scrap one, honestly. I mean, of the three, I would

269
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 3: probably scrap Crochet, but I would probably also regret it.

270
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 3: But I feel like I feel like right now, unless

271
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 3: I really needed strikeouts, I would I'll stick with Heel.

272
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 3: I feel like his win equity gives him something. I mean,

273
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 3: he's eight and one, and I know wins are stupid,

274
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 3: but they also are off in a category. And with Crochet,

275
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 3: I feel like they're gonna shut him down about as

276
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 3: fast as Heel. And even if he gets traded, I

277
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 3: just don't know if I trust him. And then Hawk

278
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 3: is definitely he's my He's my start at this point.

279
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 2: Great.

280
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: I'm glad you say that, because I didn't want to

281
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: be the Homer who started, started and married, but was

282
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: I was leaning that direction, and it's mostly because of

283
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 1: what you said, it's the innings thing, like he threw

284
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: over one hundred innings last year, and I you know,

285
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 1: as much as the Red Sox aren't that great, I

286
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 1: do believe in what they've been doing with their pitching

287
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: and the results they've been getting with their starting pitching,

288
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: and so you have seen a tangible difference with him.

289
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 1: So that part is exciting, and I'm just the most

290
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: confident he's just not going to get shut down. And

291
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 1: the trade rumors that you mentioned, that's really interesting with

292
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: garat Crochet because there are rumors that the Padres are interested,

293
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 1: which is kind of fascinating because this guy threw twelve

294
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 1: innings last year and none in twenty twenty two, and

295
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 1: he's already at sixty nine and two thirds innings. How

296
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: much longer is he going to go? And how exactly

297
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: do you plan to use him? So that was kind

298
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: of wild, especially especially this is not someone who just

299
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 1: missed time for like the first time ever, like he's

300
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 1: just always had injury issues. You can't just like unleash

301
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: him at a million innings this year. Same thing for

302
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 1: Louise Heal. Both of them have thrown more than three

303
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,319
Speaker 1: three times as many innings this year and as they

304
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 1: have the last two seasons combined, which is kind of

305
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 1: the nuts part about it. And so for me, I

306
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: would start slash Mary Tanner Hawck. I think I would

307
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: stash Louise Heel. But for me, I think it's interchangeable

308
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,079
Speaker 1: whether you start or scrap or stash, or scrap Heel

309
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: or crochet. The caveat is that I don't want to

310
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: cut any of them. And so in scrap in this

311
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: case is I want to sell high like I would,

312
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: especially on Louis Heel. I want to sell high, and

313
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 1: like I don't want to. I wrote him up as

314
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: a sell high last week or two weeks ago or

315
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 1: whatever it was. I think it was two weeks ago.

316
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: And I don't want to just be like the downer

317
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 1: on him, because he also looked fantastic, and I don't

318
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 1: want to just like you know, you know, like I said,

319
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: I don't want to just like downplay everything he's doing

320
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: because he's been amazing. But I also, like I want

321
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: I don't think he's this good. Like I think he's

322
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: been very good, I don't think he's this good. He's

323
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: really relying on his fastball, which I don't think is

324
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: sustainable and the innings.

325
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 2: I just don't see it. And so, but like, you know,

326
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 2: one thing.

327
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 1: I wanted to bring up here is I was looking

328
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: at like MLB dot com put out like some new

329
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 1: storry picture of power rankings, and Louise Heel it t Threek

330
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 1: Schoolble was one, Ranger Suarez was too. You know, as

331
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 1: much as I have been calling Ranger Swarez the best

332
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: picture in baseball, I don't know that that's accurate. Zach

333
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: Wheeler three, and then they had Louis Heel four, and

334
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but that's ridiculous. Louis Hill is not the

335
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,600
Speaker 1: fourth best picture in baseball, even if you're talking about

336
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: like right now today, it's just not true. They have

337
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: him ahead of Corbyn Burns. They have him. They have

338
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: Tanner Hawk at six, which I also don't agree with.

339
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: I think that's too high. I think he's like very

340
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: good and it's fun, but he's not the sixth best

341
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: picture in baseball. I'm sorry, it's not true. They have

342
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 1: him better than Tireglass now not true. I wouldn't even

343
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: put him ahead of Paul Skins or shout to Emanaga,

344
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 1: who you and I were talking about before the show.

345
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 1: They had Inaga Emananaga as the number one ranked pitcher overall,

346
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: and then he had one bad starty and.

347
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 2: They dropped mun to the nine. Ridiculous.

348
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: So I did want to just bring in that kind

349
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 1: of context because of, like, I think you can sell

350
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: Louise Heel high right now because the Yankees have come

351
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 1: out and said we're not like they like they came

352
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: out and said that we have no plans to shut

353
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: them down.

354
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 2: It's like, okay, great, good luck with that. And they

355
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 2: not even shut them down.

356
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: They said they had like no restrictions, and everyone's like, interesting,

357
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: that's an interesting strategy for someone with that many innings.

358
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: Is like, good luck in the playoffs if you want

359
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 1: to use him. Anything else there Before I move on,

360
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 1: I know I kind of went on a rant there.

361
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 3: Oh, I mean I'm familiar with your Louise Heel rant,

362
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 3: but yeah, oh I had a question for you with

363
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 3: regard to like the difference between Heel and Crochet, but

364
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 3: just yeah, in general for me with the Yankee saying

365
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 3: that versus I just don't. It's not that I necessarily

366
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 3: trust the Yankees to know what they're doing, but I mean,

367
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 3: the White Sox have no idea what they're doing, and

368
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 3: so I feel like they're just more likely to shut

369
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 3: him down or trade him for nothing, or like, I

370
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 3: just think that he Crouchet could just be the one

371
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 3: that ends up in a very bad situation first, whereas

372
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 3: with Heel, I feel like, yeah, they're not going to

373
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 3: like put any restrictions, but I wouldn't be surprised if

374
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 3: they skip a start or two, you know, as it

375
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 3: goes like not necessarily shut him down for a month

376
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 3: or something, but just okay, we're going to go with

377
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 3: the six man rotation for two weeks or something. So

378
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 3: that's it's a less of a risk in my opinion

379
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 3: right this very second.

380
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, the other thing there is the White Sox

381
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 1: are not good. They have no reason to keep pitching

382
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: Crochet if the Yankees, they have to figure out a plan.

383
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 1: And I think you're right. And we were talking to

384
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,640
Speaker 1: Welsh about this little bit yesterday on Slack and he said,

385
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: probably six man rotation.

386
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:18,120
Speaker 2: I think that's probably right.

387
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 1: I think I think they're going to maybe skip a start,

388
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: maybe there's a Phantomiel stint coming, then they go to

389
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:28,479
Speaker 1: a six man rotation. Maybe they even do a period

390
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 1: where he gets an opener and then he does three

391
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,919
Speaker 1: or four innings and they just kind of keep him

392
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: stretched out that way, but limit the innings, Like he's

393
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:35,880
Speaker 1: probably gonna do that, Like he's probably going to still

394
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 1: good good, give good value as long as he keeps

395
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 1: pitching as well. Whereas Crochet, maybe he gets shut down,

396
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,719
Speaker 1: maybe he getstraight into the Padres and he gets put

397
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: in the bill in exactly.

398
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 2: His value could be like nothing tomorrow right exactly.

399
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 3: And we had somebody, we had some man discord ask like,

400
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 3: you know, is the window for him for trading him

401
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 3: closing or closed? And I just said, I'm like, i'd

402
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 3: want to unload him in the next two weeks specific

403
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 3: for that, Like, yeah, maybe he would stay with who

404
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 3: he is, but I just don't trust I certainly don't

405
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 3: trust the Padres to know what to do with him

406
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,160
Speaker 3: if they get him. So I'm like, I would want

407
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,479
Speaker 3: out from his business if I wanted to trade him

408
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:12,719
Speaker 3: at all.

409
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: All Right, So the last segment of a round in

410
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: basis I wanted to talk about the latest sports betting scandal,

411
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: so it's not necessarily as fantasy relevant as the other topics,

412
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 1: so we'll be a little bit quicker about it. But

413
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 1: I did think it's relevant to talk about, and I

414
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 1: thought it was interesting to talk about. So for those

415
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: of you who don't know, most of you probably do

416
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: know by the time we're listening to this. But Tukipeda

417
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: Marcano just got banned for life for betting on baseball.

418
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 2: And he didn't get banned for how.

419
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: Poorly he was betting on baseball, but he just got

420
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: banned because he was betting on baseball in general. And

421
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: of course, whenever this happens, especially you know, in the

422
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: latest age of legalized sports betting in all these different states,

423
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 1: people are going to come out and say they're worried

424
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: about the integrity of sports. Legalized sports scambling is ruining sports.

425
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: It's ruining baseball. And I wanted to get your thoughts on,

426
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,879
Speaker 1: you know, this scandal in particular, and then also just

427
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 1: know your general thoughts on whether you know, online sports

428
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 1: betting is you know, not necessarily like good or bad

429
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 1: for sports, But you know, do you think those concerns

430
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,920
Speaker 1: have any merit about you know, the integrity of the sport.

431
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 3: I feel like there's a lot of hand ringing about

432
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 3: the integrity of baseball no matter what is happening. They

433
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 3: probably did it once upon a time because they were

434
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 3: chewing too much gum. I think they'll just come up

435
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 3: with anything at some point. But my only thing, which

436
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 3: it sounds almost conspiracy esque, but it's amazing to me

437
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 3: all the ones who get caught are such terrible gamblers,

438
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 3: and I am fully convinced.

439
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 2: Like, please stop me from gambling.

440
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 3: Well, I'm just fully convinced. It's like they yeah, they

441
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 3: might have been betting. I'm sure they were betting on baseball,

442
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 3: because that would be a thing. But I also think

443
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,439
Speaker 3: that what they're all gonna suck because then you know,

444
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 3: it can be like, well, look we caught them, we

445
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 3: banned them, but also they weren't even good, so they

446
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 3: couldn't have possibly swung any games. And I'm like, yeah,

447
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean, his record was so atrocious

448
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 3: it could have been true. But I also that's that's

449
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 3: kind of the dance that I think we're doing. I

450
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 3: don't think that there's any more like risk to it

451
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,200
Speaker 3: really now than there was then. My biggest, my actual

452
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,639
Speaker 3: biggest problem with the combination of the two, it's just

453
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,639
Speaker 3: people going after athletes for not getting the two total

454
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 3: bases that they bet and it's obviously worse in like

455
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 3: college when you go after college players, But even then,

456
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 3: I'm like, there's just no there's no time or space

457
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 3: that you should be telling athletes to kill themselves on

458
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:33,679
Speaker 3: Twitter just because you made a bad bet. So that that,

459
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,159
Speaker 3: to me is more of the concern than than it

460
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,159
Speaker 3: actually swinging any of the games. Yeah, I assume you

461
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 3: have some other opinion there.

462
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 2: I do.

463
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 1: I have what I think is a hot take, but

464
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 1: I also think what you said, there's the athletes already

465
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: get that for fantasy football every Sunday, so and you'll

466
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 1: see a lot of the athletes reply this year because

467
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: and I don't know what makes you think you should

468
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 1: be tagging athletes on Twitter or X or whatever we're

469
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 1: going to call it going forward about performance, But uh,

470
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,159
Speaker 1: stop doing that. It's you know, they don't deserve it,

471
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: and it's also a bad look for you, so don't

472
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: do it. So my take on this, which I think

473
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,959
Speaker 1: is a hot take, I think legalized sports betting is

474
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: good for the integrity of the game.

475
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 2: I think it's good that we're legalizing sports betting.

476
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,160
Speaker 1: And my main reason is is that, yes, online sports

477
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 1: betting is going to lead to more you know, quote

478
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 1: unquote like casual sports better like sports betters. You know,

479
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: you're increasing the access more and more people can do it.

480
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: There's not as much of a barrier to get into

481
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,719
Speaker 1: sports betting. But the degenerates who really want to bet,

482
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: they're going to bet regardless, and they were betting before

483
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 1: we legalize on online sports betting.

484
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:33,159
Speaker 2: They were just doing it, you know.

485
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: Orverseas, even though Tani's interpreter was not betting legally, you

486
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 1: know he was, you know, the only reason he got

487
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 1: caught is because they caught his bookie. And then we're like, WHOA,

488
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: what a show? How Otani's name doing all over this

489
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 1: stuff like this is this is not great? And so

490
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,360
Speaker 1: like that was the only reason he got caught. These

491
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 1: other guys are getting caught because they're betting legally and

492
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,919
Speaker 1: because these sportsbooks have a responsibility to the sports to

493
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: report them. And so I think the the more we

494
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,199
Speaker 1: legalize online sports betting and the closer we have these

495
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: relationships between the books and the sports, I think it's

496
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: going to be good because you're just gonna get caught.

497
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: I mean, we just saw people in football getting caught

498
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:11,919
Speaker 1: because they were like betting, not even on football but

499
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: they were like, you know, opening up sports books like

500
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 1: at the team facility, like placing bets, and they're like no, no, no, no, no,

501
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: no no, you cannot do that. You cannot open up

502
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 1: anything sports betting while on a team you know the

503
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 1: team locate or you know, at the team facility, and

504
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: they were able to just geolocate them and be like, hey,

505
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 1: you're suspended. So I think it's good for the entigrity game.

506
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 2: What do you think about that?

507
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 3: I agree with you insofar as yeah, I mean when

508
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 3: when it was under the table or quiet or whatever,

509
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 3: I feel like, yeah, that was way easier to swing

510
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 3: things like I'm in with this, this bookie who knows

511
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,719
Speaker 3: this guy who knows you don't like it without it

512
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 3: being oh, everyone on DraftKings is hitting this, and you

513
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 3: know this one guy is doing it differently in Draft Kings,

514
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 3: are like not so much. So yeah, I would. I

515
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 3: don't know if i'd go so far as say it's good,

516
00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 3: but I feel like it does have a natural check

517
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 3: in beat that is keeping it in stride. So I

518
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,159
Speaker 3: will agree with you that far. Is that Is that

519
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 3: a good amount or I'll take it.

520
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 1: I'll take it fully fully in agreement with me. Legalized

521
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 1: sports betting is good for everyone everywhere, always.

522
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 2: Everyone should do it, just don't shoot.

523
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 3: I had one question on it though, do you think

524
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 3: it matters what sport they're betting.

525
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: On in what sense? Like BASSEBA player shouldn't betting on baseball.

526
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 1: I think they definitely shouldn't better on baseball.

527
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 3: Okay, So this is this is where I run into

528
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 3: it, and I think we've had this conversation at work with

529
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 3: with kind of everyone. So what do you do then?

530
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,439
Speaker 3: Should it be a blanket just if you are a

531
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 3: professional athlete on a professional team that you can't bet on,

532
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,400
Speaker 3: you can't bet period just I don't care what's wort

533
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 3: because how do you monitor that? Or do you think

534
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 3: it's like, oh no, as long as you're not betting

535
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 3: on your own sport, because in terms of integrity of

536
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 3: the game, who's trusting that? Oh? Sure, No, they're only

537
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 3: betting on every other sport. They're not betting on the

538
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 3: one that they have the most control over. So that's

539
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 3: that's kind of work. That's the other side of it

540
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 3: for me is I'm like, should they banned from betting

541
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 3: period on any sport just for the integrity of saying no,

542
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 3: none of them can bet. I'm not saying kick them

543
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,640
Speaker 3: out of the sport in general. I just mean, like, here,

544
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 3: this is just a blanket ban for you.

545
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 1: I'm opening arguments on that if you want to just

546
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 1: say no betting for them. You know, I don't know

547
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: that that's necessarily fair. But I'm also you know, the

548
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: majority of these professional athletes are making very good salaries,

549
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,120
Speaker 1: like they can wait. You know, they also don't play

550
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: these sports forever. So like, if you have to wait

551
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 1: eight years to bet on sports, maybe just wait, you know,

552
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 1: maybe just wait a few years. But also, I think

553
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,359
Speaker 1: I think as long as we continue to strengthen the

554
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 1: relationship between and like the transparency that these sports books.

555
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 2: Have because we just they have all the data.

556
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: And I think I think if you maybe the solution

557
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 1: and I'm just kind of making this up on the

558
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: on the fly, but maybe the solution is you're like, Hey,

559
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 1: I played professional baseball.

560
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 2: I would like to bet on football.

561
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,919
Speaker 1: So here is my user name, and here is access

562
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: to my account, and I'm going to bet. So like,

563
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 1: as long as I don't touch baseball, we're good. And

564
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: I feel like there's maybe some invasion of privacy there.

565
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 1: They probably wouldn't want to do that. You know, they

566
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 1: could always just you know, sink their sportsbook at betting

567
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 1: pros dot com, you know, show show that feed with

568
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: major League Baseball. But uh, I feel that maybe something

569
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 1: like that where're like, hey, I understand I'm not allowed

570
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,919
Speaker 1: to bet, I'm going to and so as long as

571
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: I don't bet on baseball, maybeack' buy on these other sports?

572
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 2: What about that?

573
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just say you would have to basically hire

574
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 3: someone who thinks specific like there'd have to be a

575
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 3: whole department to monitor it. All I'm thinking about is

576
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 3: in terms of like fan the fans on their fainting

577
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,880
Speaker 3: couches about this being the worst thing ever. It is hard.

578
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,360
Speaker 3: I think if you're like, no, no, just trust them.

579
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 3: They're not betting on in the sports they play, I'm like,

580
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,239
Speaker 3: well that gets trickier. So I don't see it. That's

581
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 3: a problem. I don't have a problem with like personal

582
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 3: responsibility or whatever. But if you're looking at a PR perspective,

583
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 3: that might be one of those middle kind of ugly groans.

584
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 1: So yeah, well problem for another day, not our problem.

585
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:57,919
Speaker 1: I just wanted to give that, give that take and

586
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,639
Speaker 1: get your thoughts on it, because you know, I do

587
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,879
Speaker 1: agree he needed to be banned. Like, you can't just

588
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 1: bet on the sport that you're involved in, you know,

589
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 1: that's that's how you just bring sports betting and sports

590
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 1: in general just you know, crumbling to their knees. You

591
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 1: just can't do that because like the first I mean,

592
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: obviously we've already seen some some instances of it, but

593
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,680
Speaker 1: like as soon as you start like really questioning the

594
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,439
Speaker 1: integrity of the game, like, oh, like these these stats

595
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 1: are really questionable and a bit in a really big

596
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 1: game because you know, it turns out you were throwing

597
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 1: it in for a bet, then then we have a

598
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 1: real problem. Yeah, okay, let's jump over to by Low

599
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:34,679
Speaker 1: Sell High, and you and I both contributed to this

600
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 1: week's featured pros on Fantasypros dot com. It's published on

601
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:42,159
Speaker 1: the MLB page under the title eight Fantasy Baseball Players

602
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 1: to Trade Now. And there's two sections. There's a Bilow

603
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 1: section and a sell High section. As you might expect

604
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 1: for a buy Low Sell High segment. And so we're

605
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: going to touch on our favorite by Low and our

606
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 1: favorite sell High.

607
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 2: I picked the names that I wrote up in the article.

608
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: You switched one of yours, But why don't you go

609
00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 1: ahead and tell me your favorite by low this week?

610
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, as a in the article, I picked read demers

611
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 3: because I just think I don't really know what the

612
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 3: angels are doing. But does anyone ever know what the

613
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 3: angels are doing? So I'm actually stealing one from Rex

614
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 3: Retchik I think is his name, But I had looked

615
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 3: at Brandon Nemo for I swear I look at him

616
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 3: every week when I'm looking for Bilo candidate. It doesn't

617
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 3: make a sense to me why his numbers have stayed

618
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 3: where they are. He has improved his walk rate, he

619
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 3: has improved his hard hit percentage. His expected slugging is

620
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 3: at four ninety, so it's kind of like the and

621
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,440
Speaker 3: is expected bating average is at two eighty. He's currently

622
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 3: batting two twenty two. If you look at his stackcast page,

623
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 3: it's just as red as the day is long. I mean,

624
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,439
Speaker 3: I don't really know if he's a hard one to trust,

625
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 3: I think because basically it's looks like this all year.

626
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,679
Speaker 3: So are we going to see like the improvement or

627
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 3: is this just gonna be one of those snake bit situations?

628
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 3: But for me, that would be a guy. I kind

629
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,440
Speaker 3: of feel like I would target him with a lot

630
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 3: of sort of those sell high players that we're talking about,

631
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,919
Speaker 3: just to kind of bring in the hope that it

632
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,679
Speaker 3: will eventually shift. And he's also going to get like

633
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,400
Speaker 3: six hundred plate appearances, which I always think is really

634
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 3: nice for players in fantasy baseball.

635
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

636
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 1: The thing about that, so I have Brandon Nemo in

637
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 1: a bunch of dynasty leagues, and the good thing about

638
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 1: him is he doesn't necessarily have the highest ceiling of

639
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 1: all time. Although he did hit twenty four home runs

640
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: last year with the two seventy four batting average, that's

641
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 1: not terrible.

642
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 2: I'll take that.

643
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 1: You know, with a lot of the players I have

644
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 1: that are struggling this year. At two and twenty four

645
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 1: home runs, I'll take that. I'd sign up for that

646
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 1: right now. The good thing about him, like you said,

647
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 1: is he's going to hit the top of that Mets lineup.

648
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 1: He is a get on bas machine. You know, his

649
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: career walk percentage is thirteen percent right now, it's thirteen

650
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 1: point one percent and he's only batting you know, two

651
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 1: twenty two, which is why he's on base is only

652
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,480
Speaker 1: two eighty. But as expected, numbers are a lot better.

653
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 1: His babbitt is two seventy nine, is a little lower

654
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 1: than the league average. But if you need runs a

655
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 1: little bit power, he's not going to run a ton,

656
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 1: but he already has.

657
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 2: I thought this was interesting.

658
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 1: He already has five stolen bases this year after only

659
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 1: stealing three in each of the last two years. So

660
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: that's a nice little bonus that he's running a little

661
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 1: bit more. Maybe that, you know, maybe he gives you

662
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: six more and you get, you know, some bonus stolen bases.

663
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:22,800
Speaker 1: He already has seven home runs. He's gonna score over

664
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: eighty runs, you know, if you need runs and batting average,

665
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 1: I think will be decent. He's not going to hit

666
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: two twenty two all year. I think he think he's

667
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: gonna be good. So yeah, I think that's a good pick.

668
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: Did you say how available he is in the league?

669
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 1: Am I putting you on the spot with that?

670
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 3: I think I wrote it in here? Did I not

671
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 3: write it in here?

672
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 2: I did not?

673
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 3: Yep? No, not as sure? How available? I'll look it up?

674
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 3: Will you talk about yours? I?

675
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, okay, you can look it up. Although I

676
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 1: don't have a percentage for mine either, So I don't.

677
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 1: I'll put myself on the spot. But he's gonna be

678
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: rostered everywhere.

679
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 2: So my bilow is going to be You're gonna have

680
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 2: to trade for him, right yep. And so my bilow

681
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 2: is CJ. CJ. Abrams.

682
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 1: And what I basically wrote in the art is that

683
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: his first two months of the season could not have

684
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 1: been any different because he came out of the gate

685
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,080
Speaker 1: hot and looked like an MVP candidate, and it looked

686
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 1: like the breakout that we saw last year was just

687
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: a mini breakout. It was just a teaser for what

688
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 1: we're about to get from him. But now he's gotten

689
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: really cold. And so you know, I've already seen, you know,

690
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 1: in our discord and you know, in some other Fantasy

691
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: Baseball forums that I'm in, I'm seeing the rumblings about c. J.

692
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: Abrams And that's kind of where I pick some of

693
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 1: these names from sometimes, whether I'm seeing it in comments

694
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: on Leading Off or in our discord, or you know,

695
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 1: on like this Fantasy Baseball Facebook group that I look

696
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 1: at when you start seeing and some of these are

697
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 1: more casual managers in more casual leagues, which I get like,

698
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: you're you know, you're not gonna be able to go

699
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 1: acquire CJ Abrams in every league.

700
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 2: But I think this is interesting by.

701
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 1: A low opportunity with how bad he's been recently, despite that,

702
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: his underlying numbers looked really good. And we've already seen

703
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 1: what his ceiling was last year when he hit eighteen

704
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 1: home runs and stole forty seven bases. And I think

705
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 1: his ceiling is even higher than that because he's already

706
00:30:59,280 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: got nine.

707
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 2: Home runs year.

708
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna hit twenty plus home runs this year.

709
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 1: Something i'd hat stolen basis so is solen base passe

710
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 1: isn't as good.

711
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:06,040
Speaker 2: But we know that.

712
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 1: You know, as the batting average gets up, he's going

713
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 1: to run more because he didn't you know, he's solen

714
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: bases are down a little bit right now because he

715
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 1: hasn't just sign Himen getting on base. And so what

716
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 1: I basically wrote is all that just basically see how

717
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: the CJ Abrams manager is feeling about c J Abams

718
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: right now, because my guess is it's not as good

719
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 1: as he was feeling a month ago. He ors he

720
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 1: was feeling a month ago, and see what the price is.

721
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 1: Maybe you can even turn around and flip Louis Heal

722
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 1: for CJ.

723
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 2: Abrams. If that person needs needs pitching, would you do

724
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 2: that trade?

725
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I'm sure in a vacuum I would

726
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 3: do it, depending on the league. But I have a

727
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 3: couple of leagues where the pitching numbers matter so much

728
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 3: that I would have a very very difficult time.

729
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 2: Really.

730
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 3: That's that's the thing where everyone's always talking about, ohpell

731
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 3: high sall high sall high and I'm like, I'm like, well,

732
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 3: in some leagues that's just not a viable option, because

733
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 3: then who do I replace Heal with? Whereas with Abrams's

734
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 3: I agree entirely that, yeah, he's just definitely a bi lo.

735
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 3: If you have someone you want to you want to

736
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 3: get for him, so and and some traditional leagues I

737
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 3: could flip Heel for him. But but I just thinking

738
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 3: a couple of my leagues where pitching is too valuable, so.

739
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 1: Interesting, I thought it would be a slam talk, and

740
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 1: you might, you know, you might brow me for for

741
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 1: even suggesting that, but that's good to know. I My

742
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 1: thing with that is that at least this year, we're

743
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: hitting is so down that if I can flip an

744
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 1: overperforming pitcher for a hitter like I just need to

745
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 1: in like every league because I'm just like finding pictures

746
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire who are good and so like,

747
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, you know, if you can give

748
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: me a hitter, I'll do it. Like how I tried

749
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: to get Collge Warber.

750
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 2: From you and you you didn't You didn't answer me.

751
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 3: Well, you asked me when I was on vacation, so

752
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 3: you know, I thought you're trying to take advantage.

753
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, who is your so high?

754
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 3: So my so high? Actually it really he it pained

755
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 3: me U to put him in here, but I because

756
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 3: I really really like David fry And like I said,

757
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 3: the first thing I start with is I'm not in

758
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 3: a hurry to shade him, but if you want to

759
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 3: offer me CJ Abrams, I will flip him in a heartbeat.

760
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 3: So yeah, he's he just has a ton of value

761
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 3: and he's doing you know, his numbers are absolutely insanely

762
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 3: off the charts in a way that he's not going

763
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 3: to be able to continue, and there's going to be

764
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 3: a fairly long, probably period of regression that is going

765
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 3: to hit at some point to knock these numbers down

766
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 3: into what they're probably going to get. Stay near. But

767
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 3: those eight home runs, I'm like, yeah, you know, I

768
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 3: mean he averages or he projects to have like another

769
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 3: ten of them, So if you want to hold onto that,

770
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 3: you can. But he's currently batting three forty two and

771
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 3: he's projected to bat like two fifty for the rest

772
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 3: of the year, and that run is going to hurt painfully.

773
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 3: So if I could get someone like very struggling CJ. Rooms,

774
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 3: and yeah, I'd flip him. He has catcher eligibility, which

775
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:09,399
Speaker 3: is how it's how I would sell someone on him.

776
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 3: But don't get me wrong, if I'm stuck with him,

777
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 3: I don't feel overly stuck. I like his power and

778
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:15,319
Speaker 3: I like the lineup that he's in.

779
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 1: So yeah, in one league that we're in together, I

780
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 1: am currently starting him. I can't remember if it's in

781
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,279
Speaker 1: my outfield, but it's or corner infield, but it's not

782
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,320
Speaker 1: at ketcher right now. And that's how bad high offense

783
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 1: is because I need to start David Frye. Yes, So

784
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:30,680
Speaker 1: that gives you a glimpse of why I'd be looking

785
00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 1: to trade pitching for hitting in the league like that.

786
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: But I have another league where he's my one catcher,

787
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 1: and I'm completely happy to just leave him there. I

788
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: lost to Wilson Carterreras in that league, and so I've

789
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: just been piecing catcher together and I've just been thrilled

790
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 1: to toss David Frye into my lineup. Even if he

791
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,759
Speaker 1: bats two fifty with ten home runs in the rest

792
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 1: of the way. Fine, like if I can get that

793
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: and not worry about catcher. Also fine, like I don't care.

794
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:54,759
Speaker 1: I mean no, granted, if I can sell high, well,

795
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 1: gladly sell high and find another catcher on the waiver wire, right, yeah,

796
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,439
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to sell David Frye because

797
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 1: he's been very fun and I wish he would play

798
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 1: more for the Guardians. I wish I wust have given

799
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 1: him days off, but he's one injury away from playing

800
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 1: every day. Not necessarily a catcher because he played cat eligible,

801
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 1: but he doesn't always catch for them. He's all over

802
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 1: the place, so that eligibility helps too, especially when you

803
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:21,280
Speaker 1: have offense as bad as I do. So I already

804
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 1: apologize to you for my cell high and Javier Asad

805
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:27,799
Speaker 1: and it's just let me look up what I wrote

806
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 1: about him, but it's it's basically like his and I think,

807
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 1: you know this, his his expected numbers are not as

808
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 1: good as who he is in real life. And we

809
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 1: talked about the window for selling high another player closing sooner.

810
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 2: Who were we just talking about that? We're talking about

811
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 2: that selling high.

812
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 1: I think, oh, yeah, yeah, so crochet. But I think

813
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 1: Javier Asad I wrote this. The first sentence I wrote

814
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:56,800
Speaker 1: in the in the article was that the window to

815
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 1: sell high on Javier side might be closing soon, so

816
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 1: it's time to jump through. And so I just think

817
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 1: I then, like, his numbers looked really good. Sixty three

818
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 1: in the third innings, sixty one strikeouts, so just right

819
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,760
Speaker 1: under a strikeout printing. His era is two point twenty seven.

820
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,279
Speaker 1: Expected era numbers are all higher than that, but not

821
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 1: like ridiculously higher than that. They're all between like three

822
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:19,840
Speaker 1: point seven two and like four point one one. So

823
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: they all kind of agree he should be like a

824
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:27,239
Speaker 1: run and a half plus higher than that, And so

825
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: that is one indicator of why it's a sell high.

826
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 1: But it's also like, you know, he just feels like

827
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,239
Speaker 1: very blat to me, and like the I feel like

828
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 1: regression is kind of coming for him. Bab is two

829
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 1: fifty four, Like that's fine, And it's just like he

830
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 1: doesn't have great velocity, and like his chase and his

831
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:45,759
Speaker 1: whiff rates are like near like near the bottom of

832
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: the league.

833
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,319
Speaker 2: Theyre like below abas, they're like near the bottom league.

834
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 1: And it's also just like really leaning into his sinker

835
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 1: and not only just his sinker, but like his sinker

836
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 1: cutter four seamer kind of combo, like they're not that

837
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:58,839
Speaker 1: different of pitches for you to just rely on those

838
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: over three quarters of time, he throws those over seventy

839
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 1: six percent of the time, one combination of like those

840
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:06,280
Speaker 1: three pitches. And I get that, like having three pitches

841
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:08,239
Speaker 1: that are like kind of similar but also different like

842
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,319
Speaker 1: can help you because you know it's like deceptive for

843
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 1: the better, but also like we need some you know,

844
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 1: a better out pitch than what he's doing right now.

845
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 1: And I just don't think it's sustainable based on you know,

846
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 1: all the all those numbers I just mentioned, I don't

847
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:22,319
Speaker 1: think it's sustainable that he's going to continue pitching this

848
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: well this way.

849
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:24,080
Speaker 2: And so like if you're in.

850
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: A league like you where you you know, pitching is

851
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,319
Speaker 1: more viable and you need pitching, I would gladly be

852
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 1: you know, looking to move jave Ra Asade and the

853
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 1: in the article of the names I mentioned to try

854
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:37,799
Speaker 1: and land for him. And maybe I'm aiming too low,

855
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 1: but I thought these were like fair offers. Was maybe

856
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 1: you can get Ryan McMahon or Tyler O'Neil. Would you

857
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 1: make either of those traits?

858
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, And don't heard you like this. I'm a Cubs

859
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 3: fan enough, Like I'm a Cubs fan. Let's just say

860
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,800
Speaker 3: I don't arrange my nights, but to make sure I

861
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 3: can see how you're a sad pitch. So yeah, it's

862
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,239
Speaker 3: the same. It's kind of the same story. But I

863
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 3: am also much lower on him overall, though, And I

864
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,080
Speaker 3: am on heel or crochet or like, I'm going to

865
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 3: hold onto those guys not and a side can go

866
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 3: for kind of whatever. I don't think you're necessarily off

867
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 3: on your comparison, though, I feel like somebody with like

868
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 3: an abundance of outfielders or third basement or whatever. McMahon

869
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 3: is a good option. And O'Neill, you know, he's going

870
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 3: to bring the power if he can stay healthy, things

871
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 3: are fine. So so yeah, I would. I would look

872
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,279
Speaker 3: for the most pitching starved person in the league and

873
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:27,760
Speaker 3: see if I can get them to bite.

874
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:31,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, And one thing you could you could mention when

875
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 1: selling high was I was surprised by this and now

876
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 1: I adjusted to the filters a little bit, but I

877
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:35,320
Speaker 1: don't think it.

878
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 2: I don't think I messed with too much.

879
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 1: But just among qualifying pictures, based on the filters I

880
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 1: were using, his two point two seven ERA was the

881
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:46,240
Speaker 1: ninth best in baseball, so top ten era, he's available.

882
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 2: I'm looking to sell if you want to, Yeper.

883
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:54,280
Speaker 1: All right, let's move into waivers. And so for Waivers Central,

884
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,399
Speaker 1: we're going to mention our favorite hitter that we're picking

885
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 1: up this week and our favorite pitcher that we're picking

886
00:38:58,719 --> 00:38:59,239
Speaker 1: up this week.

887
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 2: So don't we start with you and go with who

888
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 2: is the hitter that you're picking up this week?

889
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,560
Speaker 3: So I was looking to see where I could really

890
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 3: kind of dig in for somebody that is super low rostered,

891
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 3: and I nailed it. I stumbled on. I stumbled on

892
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:18,279
Speaker 3: to Hazel Sanchez his page, and I don't know.

893
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:20,799
Speaker 2: Get out, You just find out a page to get there.

894
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 3: I just couldn't. I I'm a little I think I

895
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 3: checked like multiple times to make sure I was on

896
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,720
Speaker 3: the right page because I just thought this can't possibly

897
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 3: be be true. So yeah, so so far this year,

898
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 3: like he's cut his UH strikeout percentage down. It was

899
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,360
Speaker 3: twenty six point six last year. It's down to twenty

900
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 3: point nine. His walk rate has also gone down, but

901
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:45,400
Speaker 3: that's just for fun. But like his his like expected

902
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 3: slugging is five oh six. Is expected waited on base

903
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:52,880
Speaker 3: percentage is three sixty. His expected batting average for we

904
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 3: were talking about Haze Sanchez is two eighty seven. And

905
00:39:57,160 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 3: so I'm not really sure what's happening with him or

906
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,600
Speaker 3: you know, and his babb actually isn't all that off,

907
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 3: so it's I feel like he has some value and

908
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 3: he is two percent rostered, so he's out there if

909
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 3: you need an outfielder, and he would be one. I

910
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,439
Speaker 3: think I would stash and see if I could hang

911
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,440
Speaker 3: on to him and then like deploy him as soon

912
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 3: as the hot street kids. I'm not saying hold him

913
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:26,200
Speaker 3: for the rest of the year, but I don't mind

914
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 3: the idea of him being on my bench as opposed

915
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 3: to some other you know, middle and outfielders.

916
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 2: What about David Fry?

917
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 1: Would you drop David Fry if he gets if he

918
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,359
Speaker 1: continues to go cold, or do you drop David Fry

919
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 1: for Hazy Sanchez.

920
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 3: No, they catch eligibility. So if David was if David

921
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 3: Fry was only an outfielder, maybe, but no, I can't

922
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:47,360
Speaker 3: deal with that.

923
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,319
Speaker 1: That's the correct answer. That was a test, all right,

924
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 1: So the hitter I wrote two names in the in

925
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 1: the sheet. Because Worm's not here, I can do whatever

926
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:56,879
Speaker 1: I want. And so I originally earlier in the week

927
00:40:56,920 --> 00:41:00,279
Speaker 1: wrote Mark Bento's, which, if I'm being honest, would have

928
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 1: been a great pick because I still think, I mean,

929
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,320
Speaker 1: he's still below the roster percent threshold.

930
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 2: Let's see where he's rostered at.

931
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 1: I think it's still very low because he so he's

932
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,719
Speaker 1: still thirty eight percent roster. So he's still available in

933
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 1: more than sixty percent of leagues. And so if Mark

934
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: Dandos is still out there, it looks like he's going

935
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:18,520
Speaker 1: to get the everyday third base job for the Mets.

936
00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,799
Speaker 1: And he's got some power. Go pick him up right now.

937
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 1: I already have him in a couple of leagues, and

938
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 1: I'm very happy I have him. Although I have him

939
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,760
Speaker 1: on the bench in our league, I wish I didn't,

940
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:30,400
Speaker 1: but he was the one name I went I was

941
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 1: going to go with, but the other name I went with,

942
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 1: and partly because I was surprised that he's available in

943
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,800
Speaker 1: more than fifty percent of leagues, and it is TJ. Friedel,

944
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 1: And he's someone I've had stashed in a couple of

945
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: leagues all year. And it's been a rough run because

946
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 1: he's been on and off the injured list. But he's

947
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 1: back now and he's sitting in the top of that

948
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:52,200
Speaker 1: lineup in and already he's only batting two seventeen but

949
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 1: you know, extremely smallest sample size.

950
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 2: He's only got thirteen games, but.

951
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:56,560
Speaker 1: In those thirteen games has already hit two home runs

952
00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:00,399
Speaker 1: and stole stole four bases, and last year one hundred

953
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:04,399
Speaker 1: and thirty eight games eighteen home runs, twenty seven bases stolen. Now,

954
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 1: I don't know that that power is going to necessarily,

955
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 1: you know, be sticky like that. I don't think you're

956
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:10,439
Speaker 1: just gonna like project like, oh, like he hit eighteen

957
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 1: home runs one hundred thirty eight games. I don't think

958
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 1: we can just like extrapolate that to like, oh, he's

959
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 1: gonna hit twenty something home runs and one hundred sixty

960
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 1: two games. I don't think that's who he is. But

961
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 1: I think you can get power in the teams, and

962
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:21,600
Speaker 1: I think you're going to get stolen bases in the

963
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:25,080
Speaker 1: twenties and thirties, and it should be with an you know,

964
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:28,240
Speaker 1: an average average quote unquote, or like an above average

965
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 1: patting average, while probably as long as he doesn't just

966
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 1: fall in his face hitting atop that lineup and scoring

967
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 1: a bunch of runs. And like I said, I need

968
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 1: offense kind of everywhere, and I think a lot of people,

969
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 1: given the nature of the you know, the league right now,

970
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 1: need offense. And he's available in a lot of leagues,

971
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,720
Speaker 1: and he shouldn't be. He should be rostered pretty much everywhere.

972
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 1: And I think the injury injury reason, you know, the

973
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 1: injuries and I don't know off the injury list is

974
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 1: probably why he's not rostered in more leagues. And I

975
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 1: expect that number to go up significantly in the coming weeks.

976
00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 1: So pick him up now while you can. So let's

977
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 1: go to your favorite picture of the week. And I

978
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:04,239
Speaker 1: gotta say you dug deep again.

979
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 3: I did H And I was also going to mention

980
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 3: just for full disclosure, I had done all my research

981
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:10,799
Speaker 3: because I was going to put t J. Friedel as well.

982
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 3: But since you insisted on writing seventy three names, I

983
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 3: had to really really dig. So I get before I say, uh,

984
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,720
Speaker 3: explain why I would have landed on this guy.

985
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 2: Is it because you were going to pick one of

986
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 2: the three names I mentioned. It's three for.

987
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:32,400
Speaker 3: Pictures, It might be very, very possible. So but I

988
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:37,440
Speaker 3: picked up Mitch Spence earlier this week, and he offers

989
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 3: you nothing that is like jumping off the page necessarily,

990
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 3: he offers availability. His ERA is three point eighty six,

991
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:50,359
Speaker 3: his expected ERA is three point two five, and his

992
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 3: FIP is three point three. So in terms of protecting ratios,

993
00:43:56,719 --> 00:44:00,680
Speaker 3: which around this time, I kind of don't mind filling

994
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 3: my roster with guys who might just kind of help

995
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 3: keep those low, especially in head to head. And he

996
00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:12,719
Speaker 3: pitches for Oakland, the powerhouse team that they are, but

997
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:19,320
Speaker 3: he also significantly limits like home runs, hard contact. It's

998
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,400
Speaker 3: he just has kind of that stack of numbers that

999
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 3: it's like he's not gonna you're not gonna love rostering him,

1000
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,319
Speaker 3: You're not gonna like keep him next year. But in

1001
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 3: a pitching starved fantasy league or just you just need

1002
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:35,719
Speaker 3: like another fifth starter to kind of hang on to

1003
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 3: and deploy, especially against teams like the Mariners or whoever.

1004
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 3: Spence for me is greatly available at six percent.

1005
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 1: So he's got fifteen games this year, but only four started,

1006
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:50,400
Speaker 1: and he's just moved to the starting rotation. Yes, interesting,

1007
00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 1: three point eight sixty RA expect the numbers are all

1008
00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:55,720
Speaker 1: lower than that, not a ton of strikeouts. Like you said,

1009
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:58,000
Speaker 1: I don't know that i'd be rushing to go pick

1010
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:00,320
Speaker 1: him up, but I think, you know, he's name to

1011
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,239
Speaker 1: keep an eye on, especially especially for a name like this.

1012
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,880
Speaker 1: I especially like lower rostered when i'm you know, I

1013
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 1: usually like to have one or two spots in my

1014
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 1: pitching pitching staff that I'm like turning over, whether it's

1015
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 1: like a matchup based or like try and like look

1016
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:15,359
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ahead to two star pitchers. He's

1017
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,719
Speaker 1: someone because of the those strikeout numbers. I don't know

1018
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 1: that I would be in a hurry to pick him up,

1019
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 1: just like in a regular week if it's like a

1020
00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 1: regular matchup. But if you can start lining up when

1021
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:26,719
Speaker 1: he's gonna have like two starts, especially now, like let's

1022
00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 1: say he's gonna get a little bit more stretched out,

1023
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 1: because it's certainly look at his starts. He Yeah, so

1024
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:33,279
Speaker 1: his first Star was like four and two thirds and

1025
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 1: it was three innings. Now it's five and a third

1026
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:36,640
Speaker 1: and then six innings, so he's getting a little bit

1027
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 1: stretched out so we can go deeper into games. Yeah,

1028
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:42,360
Speaker 1: I'd be interested in like a in a two start

1029
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:46,640
Speaker 1: week from him, depending on what the matchups are, especially

1030
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 1: if those matchups are at home in Oakland while they're

1031
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 1: still there with that cavernous and.

1032
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 3: Ballpark yep, with the football field size fall territory, you

1033
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:53,920
Speaker 3: go with it.

1034
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a little sad we're gonna we're not going

1035
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,240
Speaker 1: to see as many of those coming forward. Maybe maybe

1036
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 1: really any of those going forward. Those are always fun

1037
00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:03,960
Speaker 1: when like you see like the old like Raiders, highlights

1038
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:06,040
Speaker 1: of someone like in football, like running over the pitcher's

1039
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:07,720
Speaker 1: mound for a touchdown.

1040
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 3: I thought you were gonna say that your favorite thing

1041
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,799
Speaker 3: was foul balls, which would actually be completely in line

1042
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,200
Speaker 3: with you. So I'm not really well, yeh.

1043
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,440
Speaker 2: As long as children don't get them, they are my favorite.

1044
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:18,239
Speaker 3: Everything is good.

1045
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a leading off reference for anyone out there.

1046
00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:24,920
Speaker 2: Follows both shows. You have to go back. I don't

1047
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:26,279
Speaker 2: even know when that happened. It was like a year

1048
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:26,719
Speaker 2: or two ago.

1049
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 3: A year and a half whenever Aaron Judge hit that

1050
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,399
Speaker 3: homer in Toronto and the kid broke down, So I'm

1051
00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:33,319
Speaker 3: not sure that's when it really took off.

1052
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:37,279
Speaker 1: Ridiculous, ridiculous story, which, by the way, did you see

1053
00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:38,840
Speaker 1: I figured if they tagged you on Twitter or not.

1054
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,839
Speaker 1: But the one of I think it was Larry, one

1055
00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:45,000
Speaker 1: of the og leading off listeners. I think it's an

1056
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:48,720
Speaker 1: older video too, but it's like a yes, a parent

1057
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 1: gets a ball and like gives it to there's another

1058
00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 1: There's a dad there with two.

1059
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 2: Young young sons and this.

1060
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,800
Speaker 1: This stranger gives the ball to the younger son who's

1061
00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 1: like in a just terrible mood and just takes the

1062
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:04,400
Speaker 1: ball and like immediately throws it back onto the field,

1063
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 1: and like the other son is just beside himself with

1064
00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:09,360
Speaker 1: rage that this happened, and they just like tagged that.

1065
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 1: They were like there was a young mayor like throwing

1066
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 1: his first ball.

1067
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,320
Speaker 2: Back on the then he left.

1068
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got tigged.

1069
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:17,920
Speaker 2: I left. Yeah, I wish that. I wish that was me,

1070
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 2: but it wasn't. I'm too old, all right, where were we?

1071
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:23,720
Speaker 1: Okay, my favorite pitcher, so I put three on the sheet.

1072
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,480
Speaker 1: One of them, but only because I had one written

1073
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:28,600
Speaker 1: down and I had to pivot because the Phillies broke

1074
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:31,640
Speaker 1: my heart. So Spencer Turnbull was someone who I was

1075
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:34,520
Speaker 1: higher on earlier this year, and he was going to

1076
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:36,080
Speaker 1: be my favorite pitter to pitch up, to pick up

1077
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:37,440
Speaker 1: because I looked like he might be going back into

1078
00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:40,040
Speaker 1: the rotation because Rachel Suarez was hurt. Taiwan Walker is

1079
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:43,160
Speaker 1: a disaster and it you know, just despite the contract

1080
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:45,120
Speaker 1: issue there, with what they have committed to Tywe Walker,

1081
00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:47,279
Speaker 1: there were some rumblings Turnbull could be coming back in

1082
00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:47,720
Speaker 1: the rotation.

1083
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:48,840
Speaker 2: Turns off he's not.

1084
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 1: So since he's not coming back into the rotation, I'm

1085
00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 1: not in a rush to pick him up. Although I

1086
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,040
Speaker 1: still and he's another guy with like any of his concerns,

1087
00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:57,760
Speaker 1: which is a big reason why he left the rotation

1088
00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:01,319
Speaker 1: in the first place. He's still someone who's been pitching

1089
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,320
Speaker 1: very well this year. And so instead I was going

1090
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 1: to pivot to Jose Siriano, who I'll just touch on briefly.

1091
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 1: Not like the most exciting pitcher, but like similar to

1092
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:14,080
Speaker 1: like a Mitch Spence, just like has been you know,

1093
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 1: bigger sample size than Mitch Spence. He's he's rostered in

1094
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 1: more leagues, but like he's still widely available, but he's

1095
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:23,360
Speaker 1: just been solid, like sixty four and a third innings,

1096
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 1: fifty five strikeouts, which is only like seven point sixty

1097
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:28,719
Speaker 1: nine per nine, but his era three point sixty four,

1098
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,480
Speaker 1: all of his era estimators are right there, three point

1099
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:33,359
Speaker 1: eight four, three point nine five, three point eight five,

1100
00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:36,040
Speaker 1: They're all right there. So he's kind of like his

1101
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 1: actual stats are married up a lot with.

1102
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:38,920
Speaker 2: His expected stats.

1103
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:41,920
Speaker 1: And I just I just looked, you know, kind of

1104
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 1: under the hood at his underlying numbers, and I thought

1105
00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 1: they looked fine, and like just when you can find

1106
00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:50,759
Speaker 1: a picture like that who is like widely available but

1107
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 1: also like looks really solid, you know, I'm interested, So

1108
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 1: do you have any thoughts? And the other reason I

1109
00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 1: wanted to bring it up is because he's a two

1110
00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 1: start pitcher this week, just like we're talking about, so

1111
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:04,239
Speaker 1: coming up, he has a start against the Diamondbacks and

1112
00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:07,400
Speaker 1: then to start against the Giants, so like not terrible matchups,

1113
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,840
Speaker 1: not great matchups, pretty middle of the road matchups, but

1114
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,440
Speaker 1: like he's a solid looking pitcher who gets two starts

1115
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 1: this week. So if you need kind of volume, a

1116
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:16,560
Speaker 1: catch up in your leagues. I kind of like him

1117
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:18,279
Speaker 1: as a streamer this week.

1118
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:18,840
Speaker 2: What do you think?

1119
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would list him as a streamer that I've

1120
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:25,359
Speaker 3: probably picked up and dropped twice at this point.

1121
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:26,400
Speaker 2: What he's there for?

1122
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know, and they're out there, you

1123
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 3: got to find them. I think you'd be great to

1124
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 3: build a perfect pitching staff, but it's just not going

1125
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:36,640
Speaker 3: to happen, so finding guys to fill in who have

1126
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:40,760
Speaker 3: good matchups. Sorry, on it definitely fits that Phil Awesome.

1127
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:42,760
Speaker 2: I'm glad you agree with my take him once again.

1128
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:44,359
Speaker 3: Well you're my boss, so I have to.

1129
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:47,480
Speaker 2: All right. They don't know that. Nobody in the audience

1130
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:50,840
Speaker 2: knows that until now. Yeah, okay, sorry, now you've just

1131
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:55,959
Speaker 2: peeled back the curtain on exactly. All right. So let's

1132
00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:57,480
Speaker 2: jump into a weekend excitement.

1133
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 1: Despite I was thinking skipping this segment because Worm's not here,

1134
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 1: just just because I could, because it's it's a segment

1135
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:07,040
Speaker 1: he came up with. But we'll do it anyway because

1136
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:08,719
Speaker 1: we can go into some things we're looking forward to

1137
00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:10,960
Speaker 1: this weekend, and also because we're not recording on Wednesday,

1138
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:14,560
Speaker 1: which he normally has us too, which also drives me nuts. That,

1139
00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:16,120
Speaker 1: you know, I have to look forward to the weekend

1140
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 1: on Wednesday, and I'm like, worms Wednesday, I can't even

1141
00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:18,960
Speaker 1: think about the weekend yet.

1142
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 2: I have a whole week of work still to do.

1143
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 2: But it's Thursday.

1144
00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:26,280
Speaker 1: We're recording it today, and oh, you know, I completely

1145
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:28,359
Speaker 1: even forgot the other picture I was gonna mention Kate

1146
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 1: Katee Povich. I jumped ahead my own name. I've been

1147
00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:35,520
Speaker 1: talking about Hosey Siriana got two carried away. But one

1148
00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:37,239
Speaker 1: of the reasons I can't talk about him is because

1149
00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:38,920
Speaker 1: it is Thursday, and because he was called up by

1150
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:41,520
Speaker 1: the Orioles today. He's someone I know that Welsh has

1151
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,880
Speaker 1: been high on for a little while. He's someone I'm

1152
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:47,680
Speaker 1: picking up. He did kind of have a rough start

1153
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:49,759
Speaker 1: against the Blue Jays today. When I first saw it,

1154
00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:52,640
Speaker 1: he had left the game five and the third innings

1155
00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 1: and had a lot of four runs, but it was

1156
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 1: really he just kind of got like a into like

1157
00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:01,319
Speaker 1: a rough third inning. It looks like he's final line

1158
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,760
Speaker 1: with six arm runs, which I think the bullpen helped.

1159
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:04,399
Speaker 2: Him out a little bit there.

1160
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:06,319
Speaker 1: But I'm not going to write him off just because

1161
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 1: on one rough start, because his numbers in the miners

1162
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:09,560
Speaker 1: were very good.

1163
00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:10,719
Speaker 2: St I got numbers were good.

1164
00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:12,880
Speaker 1: And I think when you get a call up like that,

1165
00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:14,759
Speaker 1: especially when it's for like, he's not getting called up

1166
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:16,200
Speaker 1: to the White Sox, he's getting called up to one

1167
00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,000
Speaker 1: of the best teams in baseball with one of the

1168
00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:22,120
Speaker 1: best offenses in baseball. And so anytime you get kind

1169
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:24,400
Speaker 1: of like a highly talented prospect who comes up to

1170
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 1: a team like that, I'm interested. And so he's available everywhere,

1171
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:30,839
Speaker 1: and he's someone I would definitely be looking to add,

1172
00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:34,400
Speaker 1: especially because I think, you know, if you're in like

1173
00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:37,320
Speaker 1: a fab league, this kind of rough start might lower

1174
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:41,440
Speaker 1: the you know, the fab cost for him, and no problem,

1175
00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:43,840
Speaker 1: I'll gladly take him. Maybe I'll sit him for a

1176
00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:46,000
Speaker 1: week and see how he does, but definitely look.

1177
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:48,279
Speaker 2: Him to add. Caid Povich. Do you have any interest

1178
00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 2: in Kid Povich?

1179
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,160
Speaker 3: I do for pretty much the same reason with regard

1180
00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:55,560
Speaker 3: to like being in Baltimore, and I think he's got

1181
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:57,960
Speaker 3: a good team around him, though I also just sort

1182
00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:01,239
Speaker 3: of trust them to use him correctly and figure out

1183
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:04,319
Speaker 3: like how to get the most out of him. He's

1184
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:06,319
Speaker 3: not going to walk for people and strike out to

1185
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 3: every game like I feel like that's gonna flip. But

1186
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:12,680
Speaker 3: so yes, I would get in now, especially if you're

1187
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:16,600
Speaker 3: playing a league with a lot of people who love prospects.

1188
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely.

1189
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:21,040
Speaker 1: And he's a lefty and the left field wall in

1190
00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:22,920
Speaker 1: Camidy Yards is eight hundred feet awa from home plate

1191
00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:26,040
Speaker 1: and the back so that's even better. Now that they

1192
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:28,319
Speaker 1: you know, John Means is out for a little while,

1193
00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:29,840
Speaker 1: they have to find another left to who can benefit

1194
00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:33,480
Speaker 1: from that exactly. Okay, now we can come to the

1195
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:35,799
Speaker 1: weekend excitement. Now we can talk about looking forward to

1196
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:39,759
Speaker 1: the weekend. So and a lot of this segment is

1197
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:43,080
Speaker 1: often like whether it's like team matchup, team matchups you

1198
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 1: know we're kind of looking forward to, or pitching matchups

1199
00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:47,239
Speaker 1: we're kind of looking forward to. Sometimes we'll talk about

1200
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,600
Speaker 1: personal you know, you know, I know you were on

1201
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:51,880
Speaker 1: the show one time before you're going on a vacation,

1202
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:56,120
Speaker 1: so we mentioned that. So for me, I want to

1203
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,160
Speaker 1: see Justin Steele versus the Reds, and I also want

1204
00:52:58,160 --> 00:52:59,880
Speaker 1: to see Nicolodolo against the Cubs.

1205
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:01,280
Speaker 2: I kind of like that pitching matchup.

1206
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:03,439
Speaker 1: But for me especially and you and I have talked

1207
00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:05,400
Speaker 1: about this, I really need Justin Steele to turn back

1208
00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:09,520
Speaker 1: into Justin Steele, and despite the abundance of pitching in leagues,

1209
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:13,240
Speaker 1: I do have some equity in Justin Steele.

1210
00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:14,839
Speaker 2: I'm invested and.

1211
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:16,960
Speaker 1: I need him to be good, whether I needed to

1212
00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:18,799
Speaker 1: drade him or whether I just need him to be

1213
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:21,120
Speaker 1: good on my team. Because I also just lost Zack

1214
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 1: Gallen in a couple leagues, and so I know you

1215
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:24,719
Speaker 1: have your own thoughts on Zach Gallen. You can keep

1216
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 1: him to yourself. We will talk about for another show.

1217
00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:30,880
Speaker 1: But Justin Steele is someone I'm looking forward to. Just

1218
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:34,720
Speaker 1: the Dodgers Versus Yankee series, the Yankee Stadium in general.

1219
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:38,560
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily love watching the Yankees. Kind of makes

1220
00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:40,319
Speaker 1: me sick, but I do.

1221
00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:40,800
Speaker 4: Uh.

1222
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:42,680
Speaker 1: Maybe that's just because I grew up watching the Yankees

1223
00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:44,800
Speaker 1: and just rooting against them. It's kind of how I

1224
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:46,839
Speaker 1: became a Red Sox fan in the first place. And

1225
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,239
Speaker 1: then I'm all in on Matt Waldron and the Matt

1226
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:52,600
Speaker 1: Waldron experience. And so he's got another start sweaknd against

1227
00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:56,719
Speaker 1: the Diamondbacks and I'm just gonna watch him and enjoy

1228
00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:58,839
Speaker 1: him and appreciate the knuckleball real quick?

1229
00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 2: Are you in and out? In or out on the

1230
00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:02,320
Speaker 2: resurgence of the knuckleball.

1231
00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:06,239
Speaker 3: I am a thousand percent in like, I'm with you

1232
00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:10,319
Speaker 3: on Weldron. Somebody in I think on Discord was was

1233
00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:13,680
Speaker 3: disparaging the knuckleball, and I was just like, how about

1234
00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:19,120
Speaker 3: we knock that off? Just shitch on that. Soye know,

1235
00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:21,840
Speaker 3: I'm I'm a fan of Weldron too awesome.

1236
00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:24,120
Speaker 2: So what are you looking forward to this weekend?

1237
00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:28,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I just picked a couple of solo batters

1238
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:31,879
Speaker 3: with I remember, I think it was early last year.

1239
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:35,360
Speaker 3: I was so excited to catch Otani in Yankee Stadium

1240
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:37,399
Speaker 3: where he was going to pitch and hit, and then

1241
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:39,879
Speaker 3: I believe they chased him in the first inning as

1242
00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:44,560
Speaker 3: a pitcher, like he was awful, and I just in

1243
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:45,840
Speaker 3: the back of my head, I was like, is he

1244
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:49,440
Speaker 3: always that awful? And he is. He's a career one

1245
00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:52,560
Speaker 3: thirty average in Yankee Stadium. He's got four homers, but

1246
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:55,880
Speaker 3: he's also got like sixteen strikeouts. It's I feel like

1247
00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 3: it's kind of his Uh, it might be his Kryptonite

1248
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:01,759
Speaker 3: area where I don't know it is enough Superman to

1249
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,040
Speaker 3: even know what the correct planet would be for that.

1250
00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:06,320
Speaker 3: Is it Krypton? I don't know? Okay, anyway.

1251
00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:08,560
Speaker 2: From He's from Krypton.

1252
00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:11,760
Speaker 3: But the right is that where is from?

1253
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:13,080
Speaker 2: We can get into another show.

1254
00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:15,080
Speaker 3: I don't know. I want to go into it right now.

1255
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:16,759
Speaker 3: I never want to go into it. As a side note,

1256
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:20,000
Speaker 3: and then my other option would be Cody Bellinger versus Cincinnati.

1257
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:22,279
Speaker 3: He tends to and again as a Cubs fan, but

1258
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:25,520
Speaker 3: he tends to just crush them. He's got a batty

1259
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:27,840
Speaker 3: and average two ninety seven. He's at thirteen home runs

1260
00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:31,120
Speaker 3: and thirty two RBIs and only thirty nine games. And

1261
00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:34,160
Speaker 3: they are in Cincinnati, where you know, we joke about

1262
00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:37,359
Speaker 3: Yankee Stadium being a little league park, but Cincinnati is

1263
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:39,480
Speaker 3: right there with it. So those are kind of my

1264
00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:40,720
Speaker 3: two things. Otani and Bellinger.

1265
00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Great American Small Park. Is that still the

1266
00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:45,480
Speaker 2: name or is it something different? Now?

1267
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:48,560
Speaker 3: I change your name, I believe so.

1268
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:50,440
Speaker 1: I thought there was like a name change there. You know,

1269
00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:53,640
Speaker 1: everyone is like selling the name stuff for the highest bidder.

1270
00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,560
Speaker 2: All right, So the last.

1271
00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:58,520
Speaker 1: Thing we have to get to is the season long

1272
00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:02,680
Speaker 1: two start Pittrick competition, and we have some good nuggets here.

1273
00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 1: The first is that despite Worm not being here for

1274
00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:07,120
Speaker 1: two weeks, we're still going to pick his teams for

1275
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:09,560
Speaker 1: him or pick his two start pitchers for him, and

1276
00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:11,719
Speaker 1: these are going to go on his official record. And

1277
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:13,600
Speaker 1: I'm just declaring that now because he's not here and it's

1278
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:14,480
Speaker 1: something you can do about it.

1279
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:15,040
Speaker 2: Now.

1280
00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:16,560
Speaker 1: He is going to be able to get me back

1281
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,759
Speaker 1: because I think I mentioned at the top of the

1282
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:21,080
Speaker 1: show he's on vacation the first two weeks of June,

1283
00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 1: and I'm on vacation the last like ten days of June,

1284
00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:25,279
Speaker 1: so I'm also going to miss two shows. And so

1285
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:28,600
Speaker 1: right now our record is four and four, although I

1286
00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:31,439
Speaker 1: you know, I'm still protesting one of those decisions, which

1287
00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:33,439
Speaker 1: I think you voted on for me to lose.

1288
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:36,040
Speaker 2: So we'll put that in your mid year review when

1289
00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:37,000
Speaker 2: we get to that.

1290
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:41,080
Speaker 1: And but yeah, so you are going to pick for Worm,

1291
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:43,240
Speaker 1: it'll go on your record, and we'll go on Worm's record.

1292
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:47,000
Speaker 1: And the best thing and so when we do kind

1293
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:50,680
Speaker 1: of the kind of the the auditing or the record

1294
00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:53,879
Speaker 1: keeping or kind of like tallying the score, because we're

1295
00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:55,879
Speaker 1: in the middle of a week, we can't see who

1296
00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:58,799
Speaker 1: won the week before unless it's like an instance where

1297
00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:01,359
Speaker 1: he had emmeron and Hancock who had already been sent down.

1298
00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:02,840
Speaker 1: So we knew I was gonna win that week unless

1299
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:07,200
Speaker 1: I had like negative points. But two weeks ago is

1300
00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 1: when we can we can start, you know, taling those scores.

1301
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:12,759
Speaker 1: And we I thought at first we had a real

1302
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,760
Speaker 1: doozy on our hands because we had Gavin Stone versus

1303
00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 1: Max Freed, and both of them had fantastic weeks to

1304
00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:20,920
Speaker 1: the point where you know, he always, like Worm, always

1305
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:25,040
Speaker 1: kind of tallies it against like his league's points scoring system,

1306
00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:26,760
Speaker 1: and I always tease him that, like he's never actually

1307
00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:28,720
Speaker 1: told me what that scoring system is, so he could

1308
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 1: be completely making up these points numbers.

1309
00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:32,760
Speaker 2: I have no idea, and.

1310
00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:33,919
Speaker 1: So I was like, all right, this will be interesting,

1311
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:36,120
Speaker 1: especially without Worm's points, to see what that looks like.

1312
00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:38,520
Speaker 1: Because Gavin Stone went two and oh twelve innings, seven hits,

1313
00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:41,959
Speaker 1: zero earned runs, two walks, thirteen strikeouts in one league

1314
00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,560
Speaker 1: I was in, it was forty two points. And I

1315
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:46,600
Speaker 1: looked at Max Freed and I was like, whoa, these

1316
00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:49,280
Speaker 1: are just as good, maybe better. But it's gonna be

1317
00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:51,800
Speaker 1: it's going to be tricky because you know, he got

1318
00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:54,919
Speaker 1: two and oh fifteen innings, pitch eleven hits, two earn runs,

1319
00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:57,880
Speaker 1: two walks, eighteen strikecats. So he had two more earned runs,

1320
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:00,840
Speaker 1: but also pitched three more innings and struck out five

1321
00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:02,160
Speaker 1: more batters, and I was like, Wow, this is gonna

1322
00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:08,680
Speaker 1: be very close. However, however, Max Free didn't make two starts.

1323
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:12,360
Speaker 1: His second start came on Tuesday, and this is probably

1324
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,760
Speaker 1: because worm Man is record on Wednesday and the schedule

1325
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 1: got adjusted and Max Freed wasn't a two star pitcher.

1326
00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:23,400
Speaker 1: So by default worm loses because Maxfreed only got one

1327
00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:26,840
Speaker 1: start in the two week I win. And that is

1328
00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:28,720
Speaker 1: actually how our record is tied four to four, because

1329
00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:31,720
Speaker 1: he was up by a start or a week, a week,

1330
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 1: a game, whoever you want to call it. He was

1331
00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:35,200
Speaker 1: up four to three before that. Now it's four to four.

1332
00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:39,520
Speaker 1: I have the aforementioned Matt Waldron going this week. He

1333
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:41,720
Speaker 1: has George Kirby, and I mentioned before the show your

1334
00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:43,960
Speaker 1: name being Kelly Kirby. I actually thought you had picked

1335
00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:46,400
Speaker 1: George Kirby, which I thought was very fun. Turns out

1336
00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:48,600
Speaker 1: your pick is less fun. It was not George Kirby.

1337
00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:51,680
Speaker 1: That was just Worm's pick from last week. So now

1338
00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:54,080
Speaker 1: now that all the record keeping is behind us, who

1339
00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:57,479
Speaker 1: is your slash Worm's pick for you two star pitcher?

1340
00:58:57,520 --> 00:59:00,080
Speaker 3: This week, and I went back and forth on how

1341
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:03,360
Speaker 3: much I liked Worm. You know, I looked at some

1342
00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:07,240
Speaker 3: Arizona pictures. However, I'm going to go with Logan Gilbert.

1343
00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:11,280
Speaker 3: He's got two home starts against the White Sox and

1344
00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:13,680
Speaker 3: against Texas, and if Coury Seegars out for any amount

1345
00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:16,480
Speaker 3: of time, Texas scares me a lot less. So I

1346
00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:19,200
Speaker 3: feel like he has a good shot of upending you.

1347
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:22,120
Speaker 2: All right, Well, just for the.

1348
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:25,880
Speaker 1: Record, if you do want to change your pick in

1349
00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:28,040
Speaker 1: the next two minutes before we're on the show. He

1350
00:59:28,080 --> 00:59:30,920
Speaker 1: has not yet yet used Tobias Myers this year. If

1351
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:34,400
Speaker 1: you want to use Tobias Myers, I would also allow

1352
00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:38,520
Speaker 1: you to use JP Sears. Who else is a two star?

1353
00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:41,040
Speaker 2: Oh? Patrick Corbyn? He has not used Patrick Corbyn yet.

1354
00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:43,439
Speaker 1: If you would like to use Patrick Corbin, he's matching

1355
00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:45,480
Speaker 1: up against and he's got two good matchups.

1356
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:48,800
Speaker 2: Tigers and Marlins. So actually you could justify it because

1357
00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:49,520
Speaker 2: of the matchups.

1358
00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:53,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you wanted to go with Patrick Corbbon, But okay,

1359
00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:54,760
Speaker 1: Logan Gilbert is a good pick.

1360
00:59:54,800 --> 00:59:57,920
Speaker 2: I actually thought he had already used Logan Gilbert. But

1361
00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:00,200
Speaker 2: I don't think either one of us have used Let

1362
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:01,680
Speaker 2: me see. Nope, neither one of us.

1363
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:04,760
Speaker 1: Have used Logan Gilbert this week or this year, so

1364
01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:08,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Dylan Ceese, who I was actually surprised.

1365
01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:10,600
Speaker 1: I haven't used Dylan cease this year, but he's someone

1366
01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:11,920
Speaker 1: We've talked about it a little bit in the show.

1367
01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:14,120
Speaker 1: I haven't been a bunch of leagues. I thought his

1368
01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:16,520
Speaker 1: price was too low come draft season. He hasn't pitched

1369
01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:20,320
Speaker 1: as great recently, but I'm still very interested in his

1370
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:23,400
Speaker 1: two start week next week home against the Oakland A's

1371
01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:24,680
Speaker 1: and then on.

1372
01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:26,200
Speaker 2: The road against the New York Mets.

1373
01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:30,720
Speaker 1: And yeah, I'm hoping to have already won next week.

1374
01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:31,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if you're gonna be on the show

1375
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 1: next week. We'll find out, but I'm hoping I'll already

1376
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:37,440
Speaker 1: be up five four by next week and then six'

1377
01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:39,760
Speaker 1: four the week after that by the TIME i go on.

1378
01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:42,960
Speaker 1: Vacation so Whenever worm tries, to you, know give Me

1379
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:46,920
Speaker 1: Spencer araghedtty for a two start, Week i'll have at

1380
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:48,800
