At the top of the show. We got 8 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 1: another Yankee starter performance to talk about Welsh, just saying 9 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: and of course we're moving up prospecting at the Welsh 10 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: because tomorrow, well, tomorrow's Independence Day and we're gonna be 11 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: independent of everything. We're taking a day off. We're gonna 12 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 1: sit by our respective pools or whatever the hell. Welsh 13 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: you got like a swimming hole out there by you? 14 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 1: What do you got nothing? 15 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:43,519 Speaker 2: No, we have. 16 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,160 Speaker 3: We have a hose and we can pour some water 17 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,560 Speaker 3: that stays around for about twenty seconds before it evaporates 18 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 3: into the sun. 19 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 2: That's what we've got. 20 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: That's what Arizona is. Go to Donnie's house. He's got 21 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: a pool. He's five minutes. 22 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 3: I was gonna say tomorrow's gonna be resting with the Welsh, 23 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 3: but it won't be because as it is a birthday 24 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,320 Speaker 3: with the family, so I will be trucking everybody around 25 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 3: at all. 26 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: The birthdays to celebrate, including the birthday of our great 27 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: nation America. There you go, but Wels, let's dive into 28 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: it here. Let's go at the top of things. Brewers 29 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: acquired Aaron Savali, which is a great move. I feel 30 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 1: like we just talked about this yesterday, did we not 31 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: that the Brewers needed to make a move in this rotation. 32 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: I still think Dill Hall is a possibility at some 33 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: point sooner than later. However, it would kind of make 34 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,119 Speaker 1: sense to me to let him build up arm strength, 35 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: more get him after the All Star break, let him 36 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 1: keep pitching through these next two weeks. But Savally, somebody 37 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: much needed. The Brewers are at the top of this 38 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: central division. It makes a ton of sense. How does 39 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: this impact his fantasy value? In your opinion, I. 40 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 3: Think this is well, that's an interesting question. If he 41 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 3: starts living up to some of the underlying things. It's 42 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 3: a little bit, but everything kind of fell apart. I 43 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 3: mean one thing, it's like an overarching statement. If you 44 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 3: can't work with the rays, then maybe you've got a 45 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 3: bigger problem. And maybe we're giving too much clout to 46 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 3: like their overall development. But the idea was like, oh, 47 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 3: they're gonna get Savalli in and you know he's they're 48 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 3: gonna start making these changes and it's you know, hey, 49 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,920 Speaker 3: they're gonna add this here and this is gonna work there. 50 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 3: And he ended up going a little bit more sinker 51 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: this year over curveball. They didn't really make any of 52 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 3: those big adjustments like you know, up ticked splitter or 53 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 3: cutter or. 54 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 2: Anything like that. 55 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 3: All of it, to say, is kind of mediocre. He's 56 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 3: got a five RA, didn't get a lot of wins. 57 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 3: He does have almost a full run lower expected ERA 58 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 3: than actual ERA. But strikeouts were down, walks were up, 59 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 3: expected batting average against was up. So what this is is, 60 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 3: this is like a guy that has underperformed a tiny 61 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 3: bit and maybe an environment that I don't think is 62 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 3: like offensively or defensively that much better for him. But 63 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 3: this is going to be a team that is going 64 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 3: to be putting up, hopefully a lot of runs. He's 65 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 3: going to get into some win opportunities. 66 00:02:58,600 --> 00:02:59,799 Speaker 2: I think this is immediate. 67 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 3: This this is good for real baseball. This is good 68 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 3: for real brewers. A guy that can eat innings. That's 69 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 3: what Savally can do. But is this gonna be great 70 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 3: for his fantasy value? Probably not. He's going to be 71 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 3: a borderline streaming streaming type of picture. But this needed 72 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 3: to happen. They didn't trade any there was like really 73 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 3: nothing involved Gregory Burrios, but it was a money situation. 74 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 3: The Races unloaded all that money and the Brewers took 75 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 3: it on. We'll talk about it a little bit later, 76 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,679 Speaker 3: like how this impacts the Rays rotation. 77 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 2: But Savale is. 78 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 3: Going to be in the hunt at least the rest 79 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 3: of the year. Maybe a few more wins, maybe some 80 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 3: run support, and maybe a downtick tiny bit on his era. 81 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 3: But I don't expect this is going to be Brewers 82 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 3: aren't like this big changing organization for pitchers and whatnot. 83 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 3: So it's a lateral move and you're probably streaming him. 84 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that works for me. Let's talk about 85 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: the unfortunate injury news. Royce Lewis. Here we go again. 86 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: Royce Lewis came out yesterday. We removed from Tuesday's game 87 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: with left groin tightness. He's gonna have an MRI today. 88 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: Postgame press conference was pretty clear he feels like this 89 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: is gonna be another eye el stint for him. This 90 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: is this is brutal. I mean, what is in the 91 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: water in Minnesota? Him, Buxton, all these guys, I mean 92 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: A Kilov was another guy who seemed like he was 93 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: always hurt. 94 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 2: Isn't it fracking? Isn't that a big I don't know, 95 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 2: but it's fracking. 96 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: Annoying is what it is. 97 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 2: If it didn't I know, you. 98 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 3: Know what the Battlestar Galactica, what I know we are. 99 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 3: We're in a fracking situation here for sure. I will 100 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 3: say this. 101 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 2: He was. 102 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 3: He was toying around a little bit, and in his 103 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 3: statement at the end where he was like, you know, 104 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 3: I don't feel good about this was kind of more 105 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 3: because it always ends bad for him. I don't think 106 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 3: it was necessarily relative to how he felt. More that 107 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 3: like last time out of massive caution, they put him 108 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 3: on the eye L. So that's where he didn't feel optimistic. 109 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 3: But yeah, one hundred percent Royce, because he's made of glass. 110 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 2: He's Samuel L. Jackson in Uh, I guess split? 111 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: It was? 112 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 2: The second movie was. 113 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 3: I'm Forgetting The Name is m Night Shamalan with Bruce. 114 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 2: Willis it's a great movie. 115 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: Well it was. 116 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 2: Then he returned. 117 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 3: Now the return wasn't as good when they did the 118 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 3: three guys in the Villain movie. But now I'm forgetting. 119 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 3: It's like shattered or whatever it was. I can't remember that. 120 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 3: That is Roy slew is modern day Derek Rose. He's 121 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 3: become incredible talent. I do expect the twins should absolutely 122 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 3: baby this situation. Unbreakable, Unbreakable, thank you everybody. 123 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 2: That's a great movie. 124 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 3: Unbreakable was like phenomenal, and then they did not I 125 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 3: love it phenomenal. 126 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 2: I love unbreaking No. 127 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 1: I was for something that happened, and nothing happened. 128 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 2: Well, no water scary, that's what happened. 129 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 3: And then later they threw the surprise on us of 130 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 3: the other movie, and then they had the like trio 131 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 3: villain movie. 132 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 2: I thought it was fun. 133 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: Was the biggest surprise? You Shyamalan hasn't done a great 134 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: movie since sixth sense. I think that's the big that's 135 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: the plot twist. 136 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 2: Here's no one coming out though that looks they all. 137 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: Look interesting, and then you then you all do the 138 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: same thing. 139 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 3: It's like, oh, you know, I want to watch that 140 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 3: Watchers one that's out okay, but all that aside will 141 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 3: lead into where I think the replacement is. I do 142 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 3: expect the Twins this guy what they did before is it. 143 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 3: We're gonna talk about that, and we're gonna talk about 144 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 3: brooks Ley here in just a tiny bit. 145 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 2: And I said it last night. 146 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: Yeah at brooks Lee and the Savali trade, opening a 147 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: spot for Shane Boss prospecting of the Welsh boys and girls. 148 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: It's gonna be very hot today. It's gonna be a 149 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: lot to talk about me, the Royce Lewis thing, understanding 150 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: my two cents in here. Depressing, That's that's the only 151 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: word to have because when you see these guys that 152 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: can be one of he is one of the best 153 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: players in the American League. Like he is. He's not 154 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: just the best player in the Twins. He's one of 155 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: the best players in the American League. He's MVP quality 156 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: contender kind of talent. But is this the ultimate by 157 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: low time in dynasty leagues on him? After this, like, 158 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: is this another one we're roll their rise and go 159 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: and throw their hands up and just complete frustration. 160 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 3: I don't think it's the ultimate time, No, because I 161 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 3: think like that run that he had completely changed the 162 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 3: perception of his value. So like a team that's out 163 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 3: of it, you should be buying him as a top 164 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 3: twenty five, and a team that's selling can still do that. 165 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 3: But to your point, it's only a matter of time 166 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 3: before Royce is I mean, we're all like, oh, yeah, 167 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 3: it gets hurt, this kind of stinks, blah blah blah. 168 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 3: But he's two years away from everybody just pissoy talking 169 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 3: about him like he's Mike Trout, you know, like where 170 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 3: it's like he'll never live up to it and blah 171 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 3: blah blah blah, Like he's got to have a healthy season. 172 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 3: He has not had that. So we know the talent's there, 173 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 3: but he's too young that we're not going to like 174 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 3: cross cancel all that stuff, but be on the lookout 175 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 3: for the news. We still haven't gotten it. He might 176 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 3: who knows, maybe they'll just throw him back out there. 177 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 3: I would think out of caution they would do it. 178 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 3: And then, like I said, with Brooksley, we'll also talk 179 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 3: about some of the blocks that could be out there. 180 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 3: But one of the most frustrating players this year because 181 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 3: of the massive This is like the Nick Cage movie, 182 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 3: the massive talent God. I can't remember anything now. I 183 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 3: just watched that stupid movie I bother. Nick Cage is 184 00:07:58,480 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 3: in everything. 185 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: There's a that's the one with uh? Is that the 186 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: one with Pedro Pascal? 187 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's got like some long name and I 188 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 3: just watched it and it was phenomenal in Nick Cage. 189 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 3: But Nick Cage is that he's in every movie. He's 190 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 3: got a new movie coming out like next weekend, long Legs, 191 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 3: some horror movie. 192 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: So he's able weight of massive talent. 193 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 3: That's Roy s Lewis the unbearable weight of massive talent 194 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 3: that then ends up getting his legs hurt. 195 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: You need a day off, my friend, that's what you need. 196 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 2: I just can't again. This is a constant issue. I 197 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 2: have off. 198 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 1: I have a great movie Connor Face Off. They're both 199 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: on TNT and TBS at the same time, which will 200 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: be easy. 201 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 3: This is the easiest answer, by the way, Connor, it 202 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 3: is Conne every single time. 203 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,719 Speaker 1: I like both of them a lot, but I think 204 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: it's Conna for me too. But it was a summer 205 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: where they came out at the same time. People forget 206 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: about that. 207 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 3: There's too much info going in and it's it's convoluting. 208 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 3: Some of the little tiny things on it. 209 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 1: Well, let's let's let's extract some info about Louis Heel. 210 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: Four runs, two hits for inning now plus one seventy 211 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,559 Speaker 1: two on the money line for the Reds. Let's go. 212 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: I talked about it yesterday on the show. It was 213 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: a good I have THIRTYI just because of that bad 214 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,079 Speaker 1: hitting yesterday. Like that's it, Like it was just awesome. 215 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: But here we go. This is now three in a row, 216 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: sixteen earned runs at his last nine to two thirds innings. Welsh. 217 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: What more is there to say about Heel at this 218 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: point except something's gonna change here, and it's going to 219 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: change soon. 220 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I'm I'm ready to relent the Heel stuff. 221 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 3: I can't do it much more. I've made my case 222 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 3: to where I think he will be for the future. 223 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 3: But it is he's stacking starts. I watched the start, 224 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 3: of course I did. 225 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 2: Didn't bet on it, but I felt tempted to. 226 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 3: But I watched this start and he was very efficient 227 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 3: early on, you know, first time through the order. He 228 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 3: was throwing strikes, he got some strikeouts, he got. 229 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 2: Out of some mess. I mean, he made. 230 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 3: Ellie look silly. He did his stuff and then he 231 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 3: just faltered again. He had a bad walk and then 232 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 3: he puts something right down the middle. I mean, good 233 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 3: Lord didn't give up like two homers in this one. 234 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 3: One of the home it was just dead red middle fastball. 235 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 3: He's losing his command later and starts and that's a big, 236 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 3: big worry. This start fastball, change up slider in it. 237 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 3: There was no Vlo dips if you were concerned. But 238 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 3: the whiffs were low, no whiffs on the fastball, and 239 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 3: he had a sixty two percent zone rate. That's a 240 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 3: little too much. He did have his slider going with 241 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 3: a fifty percent whiff rate, but he only threw a 242 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 3: twenty two percent of the time, So you know, like 243 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 3: I think there's still elite stuff in there. He pumped 244 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 3: the fastball. He can make these guys look silly, but 245 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 3: he can't stay consistent into the next innings. 246 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 2: And that might truly truly be the ware that he's. 247 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 3: Feeling right now. So I don't know what you do. 248 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 3: Do you give him the blow, do you give him 249 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 3: two and a half three weeks off with the All 250 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 3: Star Game? 251 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 2: Do you put him to the bullpen? 252 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 3: When I watch him through the first three innings, I 253 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 3: still look at a picture that I'm like, you just 254 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:03,079 Speaker 3: can't shut this completely down. But he fell apart on 255 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 3: the back event. I will say, though, and shout out 256 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 3: to Scott White for saying this too, that like you 257 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:12,199 Speaker 3: would think he gave up fourteen runs and walked thirty six. 258 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 3: By how the discourse online was about him. He gave 259 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 3: up three earned runs and he went four innings. He 260 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 3: just he didn't have a lot of strikeouts. He ended 261 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 3: up only having three and he got hit far as. 262 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: I mean, the league adjustice to you after a while too, 263 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: I mean, let's be honest. 264 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I think there's league adjustment. I actually think 265 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 3: this is still more about him the. 266 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: Hitch location that I do agree with, but the league 267 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 1: adjustment is also in there too, where it's like, hey, 268 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: if you you know, if he likes to approach this way, 269 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: let him do that and then work the counts this 270 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: like look. 271 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 2: No, that's totally true. 272 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 3: Like you're not going to eat that slider anymore, and 273 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 3: they're gonna sit on it now. 274 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: I know what you are and look great pictures adjust 275 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: back and some never do. And same thing with hitters too. 276 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 1: I mean, I remember Jason Hayward, I remember he came 277 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: up like Gangbusters. Eric Cosmer. Guy came up with Gangbusters. 278 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 1: The league adjustice to them. They ever adjusted back. 279 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 2: You know what he's gonna do. 280 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 3: Just gonna call it right now. The next year, just watch, 281 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 3: it's gonna throw a splinker. This is a guy they're 282 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 3: gonna add a splinker. He's gonna be a splinker, dude. 283 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 3: He's changed up slider fastball. Even if he throws at 284 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 3: ten percent of the time, that type of with a 285 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,959 Speaker 3: big you know, splinker is just like a big power sinker. 286 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:21,199 Speaker 2: You know it's split. 287 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I'll have an arm surgery for year. It's 288 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: gonna be great. I can't wait for that. Your not Alvarez, 289 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 1: another home run two days in a row. I apologize again. Well, 290 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: you know I dragged you into my home run call. 291 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: If you just stuck with Alvaz the last two days, 292 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: you might be on the board. I'm the worst friend, am. 293 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 2: I Just if some butts, candies and nuts, we'd all 294 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 2: have them. Marry Chris. 295 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,599 Speaker 1: Julio Rodriguez hit seventh. Look, I've made a lot of 296 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: excuses for Julio two forty seven, ninety seven, three twenty seven. 297 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,599 Speaker 1: The excuses are done. Hitting zero sixty nine over his 298 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: last seven games. I still love the player, and this 299 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 1: brought me back. We're gonna story time with Uncle Joe here. 300 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: Do you remember when JD. Martinez came up with the Astros, 301 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,199 Speaker 1: and that was when the Astros were completely defunct and 302 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: had nobody around him. Remember that it was like JD. Martinez, 303 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: Jadie Martinez was a big prospect that people were very 304 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,599 Speaker 1: excited about it. People forget a little bit about like 305 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: Jadie Martinez. Hype was real, and Jadie Martinez floundered for 306 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: two years with the Astros because he had zero lineup 307 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,719 Speaker 1: protection around him. He gets dropped into Detroit. If you 308 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 1: recall with Miguel Cabrera and Victor Martinez and Jadie Martinez 309 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: blossoms into this thirty five home run guy. And it's 310 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: not rocket science. I don't care how good a young 311 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 1: player is, if you put. 312 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: Him in a situation, it's science if you put. 313 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: Him in a situation with no line of protection unless 314 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: you are Mike Trout. Even Trout, you know at times, 315 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: you know he Mike Trout had pooholes, like he didn't 316 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: have anybody. You know, it was tail end pools. But 317 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: it's still somebody there's nobody for Julio here, and I 318 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: don't know who has to be shaken upside down in 319 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,839 Speaker 1: the Mariners organization to realize that they got to get 320 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: this guy some help. Well, I mean it is frustrating. 321 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 3: Man, I do and do enjoy your story time. To 322 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 3: add to what you're talking about, there's a heavy room. 323 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 3: I don't remember if we talked about it on this show. 324 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 3: I know he did it TL, but there's a heavy 325 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 3: rumor that the Mariners and the Cubs have been intox 326 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 3: with Nico Horner because the Cubs are they're floundering, they're 327 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 3: bottom of the division there, almost bottom of the attire. 328 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 2: You need no I agree, but. 329 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no. But here's one thing though with Nico. 330 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 3: Nico is a that's the start. If it was only Nico, 331 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 3: it's not what it's gonna do. But Nico's the guy 332 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 3: that top of the order. He gets on base, which 333 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 3: none of these other guys are doing, doesn't strike out, 334 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 3: which all those other guys are doing. He can steal 335 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 3: bases at a high clip, and he can score runs. 336 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 2: He is the perfect guy to put at the top 337 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 2: of the lineup. 338 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 3: But back to what you said, if you only go 339 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 3: get Nico Horner and then you were getting like Adam Davoll, 340 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 3: which I know they're not. That's not gonna work. They 341 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 3: they've got to make those two trade. You got to 342 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 3: go and get Nico, which is going to cost a 343 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 3: little bit, and then you would need to go get 344 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 3: a Luise Robert, which, by the way, did you see 345 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 3: the Luis Robert no throw?

When he was just talking about curse words, 361 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 1: that was that was pretty entertaining. There is the whole 362 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 1: thing where it's like the origin of the word frack 363 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: or other words. 364 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 2: It was this like the Aristocrats. 365 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: No, it was literally like a half hour sit down 366 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 1: with Nick Cage in a big wing back chair in 367 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 1: front of a fireplace, talking about the origin of curse words, 368 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: and it was kind of entertain highly. 369 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 3: I'm in the One thing I want to say that 370 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 3: this great viral campaign the new movie called Long Legs. 371 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 3: It's this horror movie that Nick Cage is a part of, 372 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 3: and there's been all this viral like, oh, it's the 373 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 3: scariest movie ever, and the trailer dropped yesterday and if 374 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 3: you listen to it, it's all scary, scary. And then 375 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 3: halfway through it's like a voiceover of Nick Cage is 376 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 3: a scary guy, and he's. 377 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 2: Like you bra miss. 378 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 3: I laughed out loud, not being able to take it 379 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 3: serious because it's not Nick Cage in a performance. 380 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 2: It's Nick Cage is a scary guy. 381 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 3: Go listen to the trailer. You're gonna laugh the jail. 382 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: Nick Cage is just playing Nick Cage. And that's fine. 383 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: Like some guys just do that. Not everybody is a 384 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: transformational actor. Not everybody's Tom Hardy, you know, like not 385 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: everybody is you know, uh, just Nick and everything that 386 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: people were just not transformational actors. Let's have some fun. 387 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: Bobby Miller was okay, okay, two runs for It's my 388 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: It's better fun against the Diamondbacks. Breton Doyle three straight 389 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: days with home runs, Austin Riley another ding or two. 390 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: He's been hot, and the Marlins look like they're gonna 391 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: be designated Tim Anderson for assignment. 392 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 2: But now it already happened. 393 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: I don't think actually happened yet. They were talking about 394 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 1: it happening. Did officially happened already? Ye, the world will 395 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 1: never know. I was mad that Craig Misch didn't break 396 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: that news. I mean, I think he did well. 397 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 3: He actually he made on you know, I think it 398 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 3: was like foul territory in other places. He made all 399 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 3: the screenshots because he did reference that Tim Anderson was 400 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 3: no issue in the locker room, which I think a 401 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 3: lot of people speculated. They said he was actually just fantastic, 402 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 3: couldn't have been a better teammate. 403 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: The issues were just on the field. He just moved 404 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: on good at baseball. So what does that mean when 405 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: players get designated for assignment or get traded. It means 406 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 1: when someone gets hurt, all these opportunities open things up 407 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: for prospects, and it's time for prospect and with the Welsh, 408 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 1: that's right, the wels Shana are going to take a 409 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 1: look at some young man down on the farm be 410 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: able to help your fantasy team here for rest a season. Welsh, 411 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:01,159 Speaker 1: what do you have for the people? 412 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 3: Well, I'm not gonna actually talk about, but Xavier Edwards 413 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 3: is probably gonna be the guy that's going to get 414 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:06,120 Speaker 3: more run but. 415 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,959 Speaker 1: Not you said you talk about I'm not gonna talk 416 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: about I'm not gonna talk about it, but let me 417 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,159 Speaker 1: tell you guys about five minutes about why Xavier Edwards 418 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: is not a guy. 419 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 3: All right, So there are two guys that are like 420 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,680 Speaker 3: directly in our face, and brooks Lee is number one. 421 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: Here. 422 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 3: I put this tweet out yesterday and a couple of 423 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 3: people brought up some good points. Here's one roadblock to 424 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 3: a brooks Lee going up with the Minnesota Twins as 425 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 3: some type of replacement. If Royce Lewis were to go 426 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 3: down roadblock number one forty man roster. He's not on 427 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,439 Speaker 3: the forty man roster. That definitely throws a wrench into it. 428 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 2: In that same vein. 429 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 3: Number two would be like a guy like Edward Julian 430 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 3: is available and middle infielders, there's really not They're not 431 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,640 Speaker 3: short on any type of middle or you know, even 432 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 3: third base type of infielder. But the positive I believe 433 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 3: it's Dan Hayes who covers the Twins. 434 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 2: He had a tweet out saying. 435 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 3: Brooks Lee would be the guy, like they were watching 436 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 3: if Brooksley was going to be pulled for the game, 437 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 3: and he's saying like they're not going to go to 438 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 3: Edward Julian, most likely Brooksley would be the player. So 439 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 3: I said, go and check how and what type of 440 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 3: availability brooks Lee is in your league right now, because 441 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 3: as we await this news, he this could be the 442 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,199 Speaker 3: guy hitting three fifty On the year, Brooksley is with 443 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 3: seven homers and eight doubles in under one hundred and 444 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 3: fifty eight bats. He's hitting three point thirty three in June, 445 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 3: had just twelve strikeouts and a perspective here, five doubles, 446 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,120 Speaker 3: six homers in the month of June, so he had 447 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 3: one extra base less in the month than his total strikeouts. Now, 448 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 3: the last little thing that could potentially hold a player back. 449 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 3: I don't think it would is he made the Futures 450 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 3: Game roster. 451 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 2: So you could. 452 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 3: Argue a team if they really we know, oh, we 453 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 3: don't want to take this away from a guy. I 454 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 3: just don't think that, especially for Brooksley's case, it's going 455 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 3: to matter. So if Royce Lewis goes on the IL, 456 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 3: they could go to Edward Julian. I belie they will 457 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 3: go to brooks Lee and they'll they'll nix that Future's 458 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 3: Game appearance because he's been kind of imminent for quite 459 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 3: a while. So I am tentatively picking him up. Number two, 460 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 3: I'm actually gonna jump since we already talked about him 461 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,199 Speaker 3: to the pitcher. It's Shane Boz and this one. I 462 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 3: think we're toying around with this almost being official, but 463 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 3: with Aaron Savale back the move. 464 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 2: As it was reported. 465 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 3: I think Mark Tokin mentioned that this was also due 466 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 3: to Jeffrey Springs coming back soon and Shane Boz, who's 467 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 3: been really good and there's rumors that Boz could even 468 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 3: be starting here coming up on Thursday against the World oversheader. 469 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 1: I think I saw something to that effect, right. 470 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, And that would make sense that he would be back, 471 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 3: but he's got a really good opportunity to stay around. 472 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 3: Over his last ten ten starts so far this year, 473 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,959 Speaker 3: he's got a four ERA, which is not like the best. 474 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 3: But in June we saw four more starts with six 475 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 3: or more strikeouts, but four of his five starts multiple walks. 476 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 3: The consistency has been his problem, but his fastballs looking great. 477 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 3: In his uh it's been touching ninety eight, sitting ninety six. 478 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 3: That's what it did in his last start, where in 479 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,360 Speaker 3: his last start he also struck out seven. He went 480 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 3: heavy fastball slider, but he's also throwing that curve double 481 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 3: digit percentage of the time and kind of not doing 482 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 3: anything with the change up. He had forty two swings 483 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 3: on pitches only induced twelve whiffs. Ten came from the 484 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 3: fastball slider. Combo I mentioned that because if he's not 485 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 3: fooling hitters and not sticking around the zone, guys are 486 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 3: swinging out a lot of his stuff, and they're also 487 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 3: just not whiffing. He's found they're falling off a lot 488 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 3: of stuff. So his effectiveness is going to be interesting. 489 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 3: But he's a total streamer pitcher, and. 490 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:35,959 Speaker 2: I feel like you and I have talked about him, 491 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 2: Joe and if he. 492 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,679 Speaker 3: Were available, are you do you view him as a 493 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 3: streamer or is a hold if he's called up? 494 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: Uh wait, a streamer or a hold? 495 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 3: That's what you're saying, like, like, are you looking at 496 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 3: like you're gonna burn and churn a guy like Shane Bosm. 497 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 2: He comes up in the hold. 498 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: A hole because of the Savali trade, and I want 499 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 1: to I'm looking at the rest of the month and saying, Okay, 500 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: you know, when does springs really come back? And are 501 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: there setbacks along the way? You know that stuff is 502 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: still there. There's no variables on the positive side from 503 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: me with Baso, I'd be a hold more than a 504 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: stream with him, also because he doesn't have a pedigree. 505 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 1: And if anything else, if you're still you know, able 506 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: to make trades in your league depending on when you 507 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 1: know those get shut down. He if he has a 508 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: couple of good starts, I might look to churn him 509 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 1: to another team and then bring back something that I 510 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: feel better about, maybe like solidified rotation spot, maybe a 511 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 1: team a little bit more offense down the stretch that 512 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: I could see myself doing. 513 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm kind of like leaning in I don't 514 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 3: feel as optimistic as I think as a lot of 515 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 3: people do about There's been like some walk issues. This 516 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 3: stuff is there. I just don't know if it's gonna 517 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 3: hold and be consistent. But he is coming. So two 518 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 3: players that are on the verge, and I know we've 519 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:43,919 Speaker 3: talked to we talked about what we talked about all 520 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 3: these guys at this point in the season, but Kobe Mayo, 521 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 3: And for the last time, I'm going to present this 522 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 3: for the year because I don't think I'll do it again. 523 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 3: Hashtag free Kobe Mayo. Yes, we are gonna put Mayo 524 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 3: on all our baseball sandwiches. This year, over two hundred 525 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 3: and thirty ish bats, Mayo has had hitting three. 526 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 2: Twenty one with twenty one homers. 527 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 3: He just hit three ninety five in June and had 528 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 3: only two games where he did not. 529 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 2: Register a hit. Ridiculous. 530 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 3: He currently has hits in ten of his last twelve games, 531 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 3: including five during that span. So the question is how 532 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 3: is it going to work? There was actually some and 533 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 3: I think you said on the show yesterday, some implication 534 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 3: out there from the Orioles that he is really close. 535 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 3: So how it works is they are going to have 536 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,439 Speaker 3: to get rid of one of vermon Aias or Jorge Matteo, 537 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 3: I think easily done by the way Arias is hitting 538 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 3: two seventeen, Mateo's hitting like two thirty. 539 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 2: At this point, it's more. 540 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 3: Defensively, and they do have an issue with having too 541 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 3: many rookies on the roster, but you get rid of 542 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 3: one of those guys, then what you can do is 543 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,160 Speaker 3: you can move Westburg over to be the full time 544 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 3: second baseman, which he has done and I think that 545 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 3: was even more of a college primary position, and then 546 00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 3: you have one of those guys serve as the primary. 547 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 3: Kobe Mayo's bat it's elite, It's a lead of elite, 548 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,679 Speaker 3: and as we had mentioned, you know of who is 549 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 3: worth stashing. 550 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 2: I love talking about brooks Lee. 551 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 3: He's fun. I like talking about Shane Boz. Kobe Mayo 552 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 3: is the one that no matter what you're doing this here, 553 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 3: he's not getting traded. He's going to be in that lineup. 554 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 3: You hold one that comes up a lot, and I 555 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 3: think we are on the verge. Here is Davis and 556 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 3: Dala Santos with the Diamondbacks. 557 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 2: I know I mentioned him. 558 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 3: Before, an absurd three forty four average on the year 559 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 3: with a minor league like, yeah, kids, minor league leading 560 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 3: twenty six home runs more, nobody has more homers. He's 561 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 3: already gotten over the one hundred hit mark and he 562 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 3: just hit three twenty seven with ten homers in June. 563 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 3: So I put it as we're at the point there's 564 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 3: not much more to say about him and what his 565 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 3: profile has been. But you got to look at the Diamondbacks. 566 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 3: Alec Thomas just got back. They sent down Blaze Alexander 567 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 3: and that was a big key for a. 568 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 2: Lot of people. 569 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 3: Would Blazer Yohanio, you know, would they deal with that 570 00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 3: and get rid of Yohino? 571 00:24:58,760 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 2: They didn't. 572 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:06,400 Speaker 3: Blazer struggled defensively, Johannio struggled offensively. They're disasters. They're gonna make. 573 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 2: A move quickly. So important. 574 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 3: Davison de la Santos has been a primary first baseman 575 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 3: on the year, but seventy innings in Triple A he's 576 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 3: played third base one error. So to me, it would 577 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 3: not be a surprise if his futures game is cut 578 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 3: short like I'm talking about with brooks Lee, or if 579 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 3: when he leaves the All Star Game he does not 580 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 3: head back to Reno and he goes straight to the Diamondbacks, 581 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 3: so yes, I'd be picking him up. And then the 582 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 3: last is a big speculation marker here for you. Shay 583 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 3: Whitcomb with the Houston Astros hitting three ten, eighteen homers, 584 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 3: twenty stolen bases so far this year, coming off of 585 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 3: a massive June where he hit three forty seven, had 586 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 3: nine homers and thirteen stolen bases. His profile keeps improving. 587 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 3: He cut his k percentage down from thirty one to 588 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 3: twenty one percent this year like Mark Viento's and he's 589 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 3: walking a career high eleven point six percent. And most 590 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 3: interesting is that he's been a middle infielder, sec, second baseman, shortstop, 591 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 3: but recently he's been playing in the outfield and that's 592 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 3: where they've got some more spots. So I think he's 593 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,400 Speaker 3: a guy that could come up play outfield and serve 594 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 3: as a super util on the infield and maybe just 595 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 3: play regular time. So Shae Whitcomb, just be on the 596 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 3: lookout for him. If he does get a call, he 597 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 3: might be someone worth picking up. But the rest are 598 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 3: the big prospects that we are paying attention to. 599 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: There you go, everybody that's prospecting with the Welsh go 600 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: to fansbords dot com to get more out of your 601 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 1: prospects and check out all Welsh's amazing work over there. 602 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: Welsh a little three up and three down to ask 603 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 1: Hernandez three for five the double and three RBI Showyotani 604 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 1: another homer up to twenty seven on the year. 605 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 2: Did you see that thing? 606 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 1: He is red hot? Man. The guy just can't be stopped. 607 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: He's unbelievable. It's so fun that we get to live 608 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: in this time to watch Shohal Tani play baseball like 609 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 1: it is awesome. It's the same thing that happened too. 610 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: It is the thing, like my biggest anger or disappointment, 611 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,400 Speaker 1: whatever it might be, is that I'm an old fart 612 00:26:58,400 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 1: on the East Coast and I wish I could say 613 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: more to watch this guy play more. And I don't 614 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 1: get to do that because I'm going to bed at 615 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 1: eleven o'clock and these games are like in the third 616 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: inning by then, I'm not gonna do that. Stay up, 617 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: Stay up. 618 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 3: He is Wow that the way he turned inside on 619 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 3: it and exploded on the ball and hit it a 620 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 3: good I think it was like one thirteen. 621 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 2: Off the bat. 622 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: It's just crazy. 623 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, we don't need to say anything 624 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 3: about Ittani. It's just it's an awe moment, which he 625 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 3: does a lot. 626 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: Of race and Rodriguez had an aw moment, racking up 627 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 1: eight k's and six at a third. Yesterday, three down 628 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: Mitch Keller six runs, five earned, nine hits, not good. 629 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 1: Spencer Raghetti had a big strikeout performance and then gave 630 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 1: up six earned runs. Dylan ceased, not good eight hits, 631 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: six earn runs three and two thirds. It's funny I 632 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: almost bet against Cease yesterday too, because if you look 633 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: at his home road splitz not very good or I 634 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: should say drastic, and yesterday there was an opportunity I 635 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: wish I talked about on the show, but I'll live another. 636 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 3: He kept me from sweeping the betting day too. Is 637 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,439 Speaker 3: that Padre's game in that game kept me out? 638 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. He It's funny because I was staying away from 639 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 1: him yesterday because of the splitz and I was like, eh, 640 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: good because your eye goes immediately, Oh yeah, Dylan ceased, 641 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,159 Speaker 1: and then you look a little deeper doing Seatson if 642 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 1: I want to do that. Injuries, Clayton Kershaw with the 643 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: shoulder issue, He's gonna throw a bullpen session today. We'll 644 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 1: see how that goes. Brian Wu with the hamstring twenty 645 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 1: pitch session over the weekend, so we'll see if he 646 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 1: has any issues after that or ramps up to another one. 647 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 1: Jiosh Young apparently was working his way back we remember 648 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: from the surgically repaired right wrist, still dealing with soreness. 649 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if we're gonna see him this year. Well, 650 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe August. I don't know. Dean Kremer 651 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: is gonna start on Wednesday today against the Mariners. Josiah Gray, 652 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 1: who were talking about we were excited he was coming back. 653 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: Right elbow apparently not doing well, having some discomfort there. 654 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: Hopefully it's not a big deal, but again we'll hold 655 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 1: our breath. The Diamondbacks placed Jordan Montgomery on the fifteen 656 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: day il Jade Martinez did not play yesterday because it's 657 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: some ankle soreness. Robbie Ray another rehab start on Thursday, 658 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: so keep an eye on that track for him. Javeyre Bias, 659 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 1: everybody minor league rehabs start started yesterday. I know, get 660 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: excited more, Javi or Bias. A lot of notes on 661 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: the Tigers. Casey Mize going to the io with the 662 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: hamsterring and Jack Flaherty Again that back issue continues to 663 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: go on. He is not going to start today, so 664 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 1: lots of negativity there.

I'm gonna 701 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 3: dig in a little bit more. I had a lot 702 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 3: of prospecting stuff to do this morning, so I'm gonna 703 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 3: dig in more. So that would be a plug of 704 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 3: course to Bettingpros dot com slash Welsh. If you want 705 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 3: to check my bets as they sink that I am 706 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 3: actually full on making. But I got some line stuff here. 707 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 3: And first up Atlanta, I'm backing Chris Sale kind of 708 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 3: as I always want to do Chris Sale with the Braves. 709 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,479 Speaker 3: Minus one and a half is plus money plus one 710 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,959 Speaker 3: oh five. So give me the Braves to be up 711 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 3: by a full run. And I have got some nerfes 712 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 3: for you today. I am nurfying it. First Saint Louis 713 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 3: and Pittsburgh, no run first inning. That is going to 714 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 3: give me our boy Miles Michaelis and Jared Jones. Offensively, 715 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 3: both of these teams in the first inning are in 716 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 3: the bottom fifteen of the league and first inning scoring 717 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 3: Jered Jones solid, you know, three and a half ERA, 718 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 3: and I just think offensively, these teams match up versus 719 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:26,959 Speaker 3: the pitchers where we can hold down a run. This 720 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 3: is around minus one thirty five, so it's a little 721 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 3: bit you stuff the other one. It's going to feel uncomfortable. 722 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 3: This is gonna feel really uncomfortable. It's around minus one twenty, 723 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 3: could be to minus one ten, no run first inning, 724 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 3: A's and Angels, And I think you can understand why 725 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 3: I'm doing this. I'm pitting on the offenses here, but 726 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 3: also on the pitching side half decent. Daniel Davis, who's 727 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 3: pitching for the for the Angels, had a pretty good start, 728 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 3: bunch of strikeouts recently, and joe Yestis have been good, 729 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 3: so expected numbers, FIP numbers kind of more in their favor. 730 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 3: I'm again these two teams are like bottom ten in 731 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 3: the league in first run scoring, so I'm taking Oakland 732 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 3: Angels no run first inning and Saint Louis Pittsburgh no 733 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 3: un first inning. And I'm gonna run this back because 734 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 3: I missed it yesterday because of San Diego. But this 735 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 3: is my plus one and a half runs through the 736 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 3: first five parlay. So I take three teams that are 737 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 3: plus one and a half, so they're major ly juiced up, 738 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 3: and that gets me to plus money. I'm one and 739 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 3: one so far on these this year, and today I'm 740 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 3: backing Philly, Boston and Pittsburgh. So I'm backing Zach Wheeler 741 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 3: against the Cubs Brian Beao, and we've got Jered Jones 742 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 3: going up against the Cardinals. Both all three teams plus 743 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 3: one point five runs to the first five innings. That 744 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 3: pays out around plus one twenty playing that sucker again 745 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 3: today for my little parlay of the day.
