I 0:00:49.680 --> 0:00:52.280 remember two. That's Frank stand Well. I am Greg sous 0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:54.360 been joined today as we are on most days. And 0:00:54.400 --> 0:00:56.920 how number two for the Closer Chris met chall Chris, 0:00:56.920 --> 0:00:59.040 what's up? Guys? How are you doing? What's up? What's up? 0:00:59.120 --> 0:01:07.120 It's your boy the Closer and uh, Labor Beast. Do 0:01:07.120 --> 0:01:12.039 you have any shares? I don't, which is upsetting. It 0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:14.000 was a big I don't have any shares either. It 0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:15.679 was a big price to pay. I mean you were 0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:17.400 looking at a fifth, sixth round pick. I mean a 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:20.360 lot of people were excited about Labor tourism, rightfully. So 0:01:20.560 --> 0:01:23.039 the prospect pedigree, what he did last year before he 0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:26.880 got hurt. Yankees good ballpark line up, there's lots of 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:29.480 like there zero just count whatsoever when it came to 0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:33.640 labor touris also Frank, You've talked a lot about your 0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:36.240 decision in the main event where you took Chris Sale 0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:38.720 over Garrett Cole and he just thought it was like, hey, 0:01:38.720 --> 0:01:41.480 Sales there, how do I not take him? And you 0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:45.160 regretted that decision. You were not regretting that decision last 0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:48.080 night as Garrett Cole faced the White Sox and he 0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:51.960 got bombed five innings, seven hits, six runs, he walked one, 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:55.559 he struck out seven. He allowed two solo home runs, 0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:58.600 one to Eloi him and Az and one to jose 0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:01.080 A Brave. They're both so little shots. And then the 0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:03.840 six innings where it is where it all went down 0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:10.440 into hell as Joshua James he allowed a grand slam. 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:13.160 Some of those runs or all those runs, I should say, 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:15.880 we're a charge to Chris Sale. That was a big 0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:20.040 blast against him. Yeah, this wasn't the best performance obviously 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:22.680 for Garrett Cole here giving up a couple of dingers. 0:02:22.960 --> 0:02:25.359 Nice to see Eloy Amenez kind of get off the 0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:28.239 schneid here. He's been struggling. A lot of people asking questions, 0:02:28.240 --> 0:02:31.600 do I drop Eloi Amenez? Oh, you don't drop Eloy Amenez, 0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:34.799 even for some of these other prospects. He was one 0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:38.840 of the top prospects coming into the season. And the 0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:41.079 weather is just going to continue to heat up in Chicago. 0:02:41.120 --> 0:02:42.960 The ball is gonna start to fly out, So I'm 0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:45.400 not worried about Eloy Amenez again. He had a home 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:47.480 run off Garret Cole last night, and then he hit 0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:52.560 his second one off of this gentleman, Rady Rogers. So 0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:56.760 he gets he hits, he gets the two home runs 0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:59.400 last night. But overall for Garrett Cole, look, if anyone's 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:03.280 freaking out about him, like do anything you can to 0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:05.600 try and buy low and if it's if it's at 0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:08.000 all possible, He's got a four point one one ear A. 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:10.919 He's got a two point three three x fit right now. 0:03:11.280 --> 0:03:13.480 His home run the fly ball ratio is twenty point 0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:16.720 eight percent. Last year it was ten percent, which lent 0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:19.240 itself to a two point eight eight e r A 0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:22.800 over two endings pitched last season. His k per nine 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:26.239 is up this year. His walksbur nine are down this year. 0:03:26.280 --> 0:03:29.400 His swinging strike read's fifteen point seven percent. All the 0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:33.160 underlying numbers for Garrett Cole are absolutely phenomenal. Still has 0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:35.920 a one point zero eight whip. If anybody in your 0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:39.080 league is freaking out about Garret Cole, you need to 0:03:39.160 --> 0:03:41.560 I think, even even if they're not freaking out, you 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:43.720 have to do your due diligence right now and try 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:45.240 and figure out if there's a way that you can 0:03:45.240 --> 0:03:47.720 get Garrett Cole on on your team for cheaper than 0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:50.160 what he was heading into draft season. Venture. I don't 0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:52.760 see how anyone's freaking out. I mean, even though the 0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:54.280 r a s foll of one, but like you know, 0:03:54.320 --> 0:04:01.080 week like deceiving, it's so deceiving. A hundred k, six innings, 0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:05.000 seventeen walks is incredible, so there's nothing to worry about. 0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:07.400 Those are the real numbers you need to look at, 0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:09.600 not not the four one one. Right. His whips one 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:12.280 point oh eight, so you know, obviously you're doing well 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:15.520 when it comes to walks and hits against um. It's 0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:17.160 just that once in a while he does get blown up, 0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:20.160 but that happens to everybody, so that he already will 0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:24.560 go down. What was his expect you said two point 0:04:24.839 --> 0:04:29.480 three three? So ridiculous. Pretty damn good. Hud strikeouts at 0:04:29.480 --> 0:04:33.200 sixty five and a third any space that scary Cole 0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:40.760 Justin Verlander also very very good. Yeah, Ivan Nova interesting 0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:44.520 stopped by last night. Seven thing is a three room ball. 0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:47.120 I told you that you're pretty pumping. He's the astros. Wow, 0:04:47.880 --> 0:04:53.239 this guy huh strike ats one walk like, okay, start. 0:04:53.600 --> 0:04:58.120 What I didn't tell you was he l tenants the whip. 0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:01.360 Not so good for ev Nova, but I want anyone 0:05:01.440 --> 0:05:03.440 Knowva to be this week's like veteran pitcher. You talking 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:05.280 your something to Frank. That's what I was hoping for. 0:05:06.480 --> 0:05:08.240 I almost did a couple of weeks ago, but there 0:05:08.320 --> 0:05:10.400 was like no, no back to back starts in one run. 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:13.000 Then he faced Toronto and getting a bomb for nine runs. 0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:16.880 And that's what That's what you get yourself into when 0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:19.520 you start talking about in von Nova. I'm gonna see here, Greggy. 0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:21.279 I don't have any shares with Alex Bregman, who had 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:24.120 his fifteenth home run on the season last night, back 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:27.440 to siventy two a b P. I know all these 0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:29.080 home run numbers are just out of whack now because 0:05:29.080 --> 0:05:31.080 they're always going to be in the juice ball era. 0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:34.320 But it's so really impressive and Alex Bregman just doing 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:36.640 having a fantastic, fantastic season, and we just haven't talked 0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:39.040 about him, Yeah, picking up where he left off last 0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:41.640 year in the second half. Greg, if you remember when 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:46.440 we started very early back in mid January talking about 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:49.800 certain players. We were talking about the Astros one day 0:05:49.920 --> 0:05:51.839 and everything that they did in the off season. You 0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:53.720 asked me one word to describe how I felt about 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:57.880 Alex Bregman this year, and I said boeing, And that's 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:01.080 exactly how I still feel. A out Alex Bregman. fIF 0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:04.119 home runs in forty eight games, thirty two runs, thirty 0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:07.760 five rb i s to seventy two batting average. Ideally, 0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:09.960 you'd want to see a better batting average, and I 0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:12.840 would think that that's coming. He's got just a two 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:15.280 forty six babbit. The fly ball rate is up a 0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:17.560 little bit, but also hitting the ball much harder this 0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:21.120 year than last year as well, uh striking out three 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:24.120 percent more but still nothing crazy fiftcent that's much better 0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:28.520 than league average. Walking more this year. The obps at 0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:32.240 the batting averages don't even get better. Um, there's not 0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:34.720 really anything more that I could tell you regarding Alex Bregman. 0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:36.560 You're not gonna be able to trade for him unless 0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:39.600 you give up your entire team or you know. I mean, 0:06:39.640 --> 0:06:41.960 at least that's what I would demand. And it's not 0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:44.159 a sell high situation either. It's just he's a really, 0:06:44.200 --> 0:06:46.840 really damn good ball player, and I was excited about 0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:48.800 him coming into the year. Venture. Yeah, I don't have 0:06:48.839 --> 0:06:51.560 any shares of him, but I mean one of the 0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:53.599 best players in the league. That's all I gotta say. 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:56.800 Young too, I mean, you said it all. What can 0:06:56.839 --> 0:07:00.160 you really five years old? Just he's getting better every 0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:03.080 single season. It's just a start runs in a hundred 0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:05.200 and fifty seven games last year, He's got fifteen this 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:07.640 year in forty eight games. The guy might hit forty 0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:10.840 home runs. Greg, He's well on his way there with 0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:14.280 shortstop and third base eligibility. He's very, very, very good 0:07:14.280 --> 0:07:17.040 at baseball. Yes, I'm just looking at all these home runs. 0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:19.080 I'm looking at everybody in the league and at home 0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:21.680 and so, I mean it's ridiculous. Yeah, like that, I 0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:24.160 don't even know what the barometer should be because it's 0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:27.400 it's like ridiculous. It's skewing everything because I'm thinking certain 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:29.440 guys are doing good, but there's so many guys doing 0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:33.840 better that it's like it's skewing you know what you 0:07:33.880 --> 0:07:36.560 think is good. I do want to have a quick 0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:39.480 note from yesterday. Sean Kelly picked up his fourth saving 0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:41.840 back to back in with a save for Kelly off 0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:45.440 the I L right, so I know that I know 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:47.880 that la Clark pitched two days ago in the eighth, 0:07:48.040 --> 0:07:50.280 did not pitch yesterday. Kelly did in the ninth, a 0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:53.280 lot of walk, allowed to hit, struck out two of 0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:55.040 the batters that he faced, back to back in with 0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:57.720 a uh save. I said, I told you I trust 0:07:57.720 --> 0:07:59.960 one right now, Kelly or la Clark was going to 0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:03.000 be Kelly uh and for two games anyway. The Rangers 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:06.320 agree with me, yeah, I would go back to saying 0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:08.240 I think the pecking order for saves right now with 0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:11.000 the Rangers is Shaun Kelly, Jose La Clerk, and Chris 0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:14.160 Martin in that order. Chris Martin, while Shawn Kelly was out, 0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:17.520 had an opportunity. He had allowed run scored in three 0:08:17.520 --> 0:08:20.640 straight appearances, while Jose Laclerk has now gone four straight 0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:24.440 appearances without allowing a run. So um, they're moving in 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:29.520 opposite directions, and I still think sooner rather than later, 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:32.040 we're gonna get the clerk in the roll. Greg. Obviously, 0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:34.760 if Sean Kelly was dropped, he needs to be added again. 0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:37.679 I'm not, you know, blowing all of my fab I'm 0:08:37.720 --> 0:08:40.400 gonna spend you know, five six percent. You know, if 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:42.920 you're playing in a thousand dollar fab league, fifty six bucks, 0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:45.000 try and get Shaun Kelly back on your team. You 0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:47.360 could pick up a few saves. But it wouldn't surprise 0:08:47.400 --> 0:08:49.480 me if even before the All Star break, Greg, if 0:08:49.480 --> 0:08:52.000 we see jose Le clerk black back in the closer's role, 0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:56.000 shaking your head down. I am not not shaking my 0:08:56.040 --> 0:08:59.320 head about that. That I'm I believe and I could 0:08:59.320 --> 0:09:01.679 just come that here. That's not good. That happened a 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:03.480 couple of weeks ago and he ended up hurting his 0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:06.160 He was also his calf. Greg, Oh, no, it was 0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:09.000 a yeah this. I don't think it was a shiny 0:09:09.120 --> 0:09:12.880 He's see here. I'm watching the play live. Maybe we 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:15.000 can get a live breakdown from Dr A too. Maybe 0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:22.360 probably not though, Oh he's fine, Fine, you're run on 0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:26.000 the chest in the shoulder area, and then of course 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:29.920 threw it in the foul territory. It's not that was bad. 0:09:29.960 --> 0:09:31.840 That was second and third with no outs. So yeah, 0:09:31.840 --> 0:09:33.439 so things aren't looking great. If we were talking and 0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:35.600 we started the show talking smack about the Orioles, Greg 0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:38.640 and now there stand by the wouldn't tush Matt, it 0:09:38.679 --> 0:09:41.720 would be fine. I mean, they gotta win once in 0:09:41.720 --> 0:09:45.760 a while, do they. I mean, you know they're gonna 0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:50.120 end up. We'll probably one fourteen fifteen games ready this year. 0:09:50.400 --> 0:09:53.560 Fifteen not bad. Last night a team that also doesn't 0:09:53.559 --> 0:09:55.560 lose very often, as the Los Angeles Dodgers. They did 0:09:55.600 --> 0:09:59.000 lose to Tampa eight to one. Rich Hill pitched very 0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:01.760 very well for lost Ange six hits, six innings, five hits, 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:04.800 one run, walked two, struck out seven. We even got 0:10:05.080 --> 0:10:07.560 Mike Florio tweet about your We've been telling me about 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:11.520 rich Hill. He's good. Do you want to expect right? 0:10:11.960 --> 0:10:15.000 Do you not get that? Sweet? Did we Did you 0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:19.719 not see it? I didn't? Yeah, alright, so Rich the 0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:21.559 exactly I don't want I don't want to misquote my 0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:24.240 friend Mike Priese me. At this point, No Florio is 0:10:24.240 --> 0:10:28.080 a big quantity, greater sign quality, and rich Hill is 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:32.719 the face of that movement. So, I mean, if you're 0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:36.280 going to preach here's the here's the tweet, then rich 0:10:36.320 --> 0:10:38.439 Hill's your guy. Of course, rich Hill just doing Rich 0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:41.680 Hill things. Sub three r a good whip and well 0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:44.080 over a strikeout for inning and then rich Hill gift 0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:50.960 he loves him. I mean, how can I follow that up? Greg? So, 0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:52.840 I feel like you're honest. I mean, look, the guy 0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:55.400 is killing it this year. He's caper nine over ten. 0:10:55.559 --> 0:10:57.480 His walks for nine are you know, the best they've 0:10:57.480 --> 0:11:00.240 been since when he only made four starts with Red 0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:02.720 Sox one point six seven walks for nineties not walking 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:06.200 anyone is getting a ton of strikeouts, a fifty one 0:11:06.320 --> 0:11:09.719 percent groundball rate. I don't think anyone ever doubts that 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:11.760 rich Hill is really good when he's on the mountain. 0:11:12.080 --> 0:11:15.720 Was never on the mount Endings pitched. He hasn't pitched 0:11:15.720 --> 0:11:19.720 more than thirty five and he's pitched in each of 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:22.719 the past, you know, three seasons entering this year. It's 0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:25.000 and we never doubt that rich Hill is a good picture. 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:27.040 It's just how long is he gonna be out there 0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:30.120 for you? Gotta worry about that. I understand you don't 0:11:30.120 --> 0:11:32.960 get a zero whenever he's not pitching. It's all right. 0:11:33.120 --> 0:11:34.600 You put him on your I L you pick up 0:11:34.600 --> 0:11:38.360 another picture and hopefully that whoever you pick up gives 0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:41.240 you decent endings. Obviously not to the level of rich Hill, 0:11:41.320 --> 0:11:43.840 but he's a really good picture when he's on the mountain. 0:11:44.320 --> 0:11:46.120 You can say the same thing about Hinge and Ryoue, 0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:49.920 the Dodgers pretty much all the Dodgers guys right, really 0:11:49.920 --> 0:11:52.320 good when they're on the mound. But how long did 0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:57.080 they say? You know, he said that's enough. We said 0:11:57.080 --> 0:11:58.920 this about Rye the other day, Greg. I mean, if 0:11:58.960 --> 0:12:01.040 you can sell rich Hill right now, would you? I mean, 0:12:01.040 --> 0:12:04.719 I think the easy answer is yes. But again, everyone 0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:08.280 else who's listening or knows anything about anything, everybody rich 0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:10.120 Hill is gonna get hurt at him. They do, but 0:12:10.120 --> 0:12:13.560 they also know keep him. I don't. I don't agree 0:12:13.600 --> 0:12:15.679 with that because this one's a little bit different, right 0:12:15.720 --> 0:12:20.360 because he's healthy now everybody knows there. You can sell 0:12:20.520 --> 0:12:24.280 rich Hill on the fact that the very truth that 0:12:24.320 --> 0:12:27.040 when he's healthy, he's great, he's awesome. He plays on 0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:29.440 the best team in baseball that you can sell that 0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:34.560 even to to anybody that could then wrap their minds 0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:36.000 around that. All right, maybe this is the year he 0:12:36.000 --> 0:12:37.520 doesn't get hurt. Maybe this is the year they don't 0:12:37.520 --> 0:12:42.119 stay healthy. There's always the believer that somebody, Well, ultimately, 0:12:42.559 --> 0:12:45.160 I think that we do it all the time, where 0:12:45.200 --> 0:12:47.959 the yangas with Troy Tillewitzky, maybe this is the year 0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:49.760 that you won't get hurt, and get hurt every year. 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:52.760 Same goes for rich Hill. Save those kids, Ina, save 0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:55.800 goes frona U. There's always a time for those Dodgers. 0:12:55.880 --> 0:12:57.560 Pictures are really a lot of pictures in baseball that 0:12:57.559 --> 0:12:59.719 are injury prone. There's always a time that at some 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:01.880 wily they will get hurt. And that's the truth of 0:13:02.040 --> 0:13:04.360 Rich Hill. But all you need is one person to 0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:06.680 sell it to that, Hey, maybe this is in the year. 0:13:06.920 --> 0:13:10.640 All you're doing. This isn't even uh a false narrative 0:13:10.640 --> 0:13:14.920 that you're selling. You're telling the truth. He's awesome when 0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:18.720 he's healthy. If you don't think he's going to stay healthy, 0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:22.320 don't trade for him. But if you do, let's make 0:13:22.360 --> 0:13:26.200 a deal. But he's not gonna stay healthy. I agree, 0:13:26.320 --> 0:13:28.360 you agree. All you need to do is find somebody 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:30.360 in fact, it's not even like a subjective statement. It's 0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:32.960 a fact. We both agree on this. But all you 0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:35.160 need to do is find somebody that says, hey, he's 0:13:35.200 --> 0:13:37.800 healthy right now, which is true. He's pitching well right now, 0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:41.920 which is true. That thinks that, hey, yeah, maybe you'll 0:13:41.920 --> 0:13:44.240 get health, maybe you'll get earth this year. Or a 0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:46.600 team that you know is just so stacked with pitching 0:13:46.600 --> 0:13:49.240 and maybe they could use a spot starter type guy 0:13:49.280 --> 0:13:51.880 that's this good and they could, you know, afford to 0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:54.360 trade someone away to get him. You know, it's like 0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:57.960 a niche guy, you know, the right He fits perfectly 0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:00.600 in the right team, in the right system where you 0:14:00.600 --> 0:14:02.280 could plug and play him when you need to. But 0:14:02.320 --> 0:14:04.760 he's not like, you know, your number two or three starters, 0:14:04.800 --> 0:14:07.040 So he's so important. You know, that's exactly right, And 0:14:07.520 --> 0:14:10.440 you said that, Uh, it's about fit. When it comes 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:13.120 to rich Hill for fantasy, you can't have this guy 0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:16.760 on your team and him be someone that you depend on. Greg. 0:14:17.040 --> 0:14:19.760 It almost has to be a luxury more than someone 0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:22.080 that you actually depend on. He's got to be your 0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:23.880 SP five, your SP six, and I think for most 0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:26.720 people who drafted him, he's probably in that range because 0:14:26.720 --> 0:14:29.840 he was going later on in draft. So you know, 0:14:29.840 --> 0:14:31.520 if he's your SP five SP six, like you can 0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:34.600 almost live with it, like you live with Okay, when 0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:37.360 he's here, he's gonna be really good for me. And 0:14:37.400 --> 0:14:38.920 when he's hurt, that's fine. I mean, he's like my 0:14:39.040 --> 0:14:40.880 SP five SP six. I'm not depending on him to 0:14:40.880 --> 0:14:43.000 be there all season long. And think that's probably the 0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:45.120 argument that Floria would make from two. And that's the 0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:47.760 other thing is that if you have him in that role, 0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:50.400 it's fine. But where you drafted, is that where you 0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:53.560 were getting him as an SP five six. No, not 0:14:53.600 --> 0:14:55.560 in like fifteen team leagues, you'll probably get him it's 0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:57.160 like your SP three SP four, But I think in 0:14:57.240 --> 0:14:59.160 twelve teamers you might have got him as like your 0:14:59.240 --> 0:15:04.280 SP five. You might got him in the four. Yeah, 0:15:04.400 --> 0:15:06.120 I think like it's he started to lose some of 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:08.280 his luster this year in draft because everyone's just tired 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:11.040 of Rich Hill and the Dodgers starting pitchers constantly getting 0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:13.360 placed on the I L. But here's what you have 0:15:13.480 --> 0:15:16.520 to ask yourself, Greg, if you're trying to shop and 0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:21.720 sell away Rich Hill, is it worth trading away a 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:24.080 sub three e r A. Let's let's just say he 0:15:24.120 --> 0:15:25.520 pitches to a sub three e r A for a 0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:28.720 hundred and thirty endings this year? Is it worth trading 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:31.480 that away to getting a starting pitcher who might give 0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:35.200 you a hundred and eighty endings Greg, But let's say 0:15:35.280 --> 0:15:39.240 those endings come at a anywhere from a three five 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:41.160 to three seven e r A, Like if you could 0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:44.440 turn Rich Hill, it's like Shane Bieber or something like that. 0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:46.200 It does that make sense to do? Though? And think, 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:49.200 is it almost better to keep a guy for a 0:15:49.240 --> 0:15:51.080 hundred and thirty endings where he's going to give you 0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:53.520 a sub three e r A as opposed to getting 0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:55.160 like a mid to high three s e r A 0:15:55.240 --> 0:15:57.200 over a hundred and eighty innings pitched? And that's what 0:15:57.280 --> 0:16:01.720 you have to ask yourself. I think ultimately depends on 0:16:01.760 --> 0:16:04.160 that player. I don't think it's just like Rho. I'd 0:16:04.160 --> 0:16:07.800 probably league right in Roto. I'd probably just keep Rich Hill. 0:16:07.840 --> 0:16:10.560 I mean, he is the perfect Rhoto picture. And Florio 0:16:10.640 --> 0:16:12.560 has said that for years. I mean, we've all agreed 0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:15.600 on that. It's it's it's a factual statement. You know, 0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:18.880 in points leagues, he doesn't go all that deep into games, 0:16:18.920 --> 0:16:20.560 and you know he's done a fine job. He went 0:16:20.640 --> 0:16:23.000 six endings pitched last night, and it seems like that's been, 0:16:23.040 --> 0:16:25.040 you know, quite the norm for him this year. But 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:29.360 you can't depend on him to give you endings every 0:16:29.400 --> 0:16:32.040 single time out and for the longevity of the season. 0:16:32.080 --> 0:16:36.240 So that's why he's better for Rhodos. So I think 0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:38.720 that's probably your answer. Like, if you can get a 0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:41.600 picture that you expect like a mid threes e r 0:16:41.640 --> 0:16:44.040 A for the rest of the season, if you're playing 0:16:44.040 --> 0:16:46.320 a points league, then I would probably look into shopping 0:16:46.400 --> 0:16:50.880 riches especially, probably just keep him, especially younger pure who 0:16:50.960 --> 0:16:53.240 could be even better than right. Maybe he hands up 0:16:53.240 --> 0:16:54.680 with it three too. Yeah, I mean I just threw 0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:57.560 him out there. Bistically, can you turn Hill? Probably not, probably, 0:16:57.560 --> 0:16:59.200 I don't know. I was just thinking of like a 0:16:59.200 --> 0:17:02.280 picture in that range.
