What's that? Oh? Well, they're both a camp. 22 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: One is doing a soccer camp and the other one's 23 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: doing like a multi sport camp and it's only like 24 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,400 Speaker 1: for three hours a day. Like it's kind of breaks 25 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 1: up the day a little bit. You know. I don't 26 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,479 Speaker 1: like my kids. Some people have to, you know, they work, 27 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: They put their kids in camp, you know, full time 28 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: all summer. I like to give them a little bit 29 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: of a break, hang out, read books, go in the pool, 30 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: play with their friends, take them to do stuff, all 31 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,559 Speaker 1: those kind of things. Kind of spend some extra time. 32 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 1: And because I feel like, you know, we take breaks, 33 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: like they should get in a little break too. But 34 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 1: at a certain point in the middle of the summer, 35 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: it's good that they have a little structure for a 36 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:33,680 Speaker 1: week or two and they do some stuff and get 37 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 1: out of there, you. 38 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 2: Know, I get out of here, get out of here. 39 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 2: You It could have been like sword fighting camp or 40 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:41,399 Speaker 2: I don't know, it just could have been something. 41 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: You're right with me, It could have been anything. There 42 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: is actually at the school where they're doing one of 43 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: them is doing the sports camp. There was actually a 44 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: Harry Potter thing. I don't know if it's quidditch. I 45 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: don't know what they're doing, but I wanted to sign 46 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: up for that. I was not allowed. I was told 47 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: it was not allowed. 48 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,080 Speaker 2: As they don't have an adult camp. An adult I 49 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: mean they have like the baseball one where you can 50 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 2: do it for a couple days during spring train. We 51 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 2: need i'bout like an adult Harry Potter camp. Or that's 52 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 2: that just LARPing. I think it's just I. 53 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: Think that's just I think, yeah, I think that's just 54 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: mother's basement. And yeah. But one kid who certainly made 55 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: some history last night, Julia Rodriguez. Oh boy was he good? 56 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: Now he did not win the home run derby. Hopefully 57 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: you watched it because it was it was super entertaining. 58 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: It was great to see old man Albert Pools make 59 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: it out of the first round. That to me, that 60 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: warned my heart. I was rooting for him to do it. 61 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: He did it. I like it, and I liked him 62 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: doing it in the Cardinal Jersey gave me kind of 63 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: all the fields of the you know, all time great 64 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: Albert Pooholes. I made one wager, as I said, I 65 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: was going to narrow down the field. I did put 66 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: money on Sodo last night, and I'm trying to let 67 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: everybody know, like you can wager and not be a 68 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: complete degenerate and lose your house. You can do this 69 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: have a little fun. I put twenty bucks on FanDuel 70 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: on Wan soda last night to win the Derby small 71 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: Field easy to understand. I knew the basically. I knew 72 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: I had almost a coin flip chance with Soto too. 73 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: I thought I had a fifty percent chance of getting 74 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: it right because of the bracket and situation he was in. 75 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: And guess what, one hundred and forty bucks later. Oh, 76 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: I mean, that's it. That's fun. That's a bill like 77 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: that pays a wireless bill in your house, or. 78 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 2: Something that pays for quidditch camp or quidditch camp ye 79 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 2: or quidditch camp exactly. 80 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: So someone shakes the stigma of all that Welsh. I 81 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: think we need to start shaking the stigma of like, 82 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: oh Betty, it's a weird and no it's not. You 83 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 1: can do it, have some fun, make small bets and 84 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: come out actually better than DFS most nights, to be honest. 85 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 2: Well, the people that everyone likes the unit shaming and 86 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 2: it's like, you know, if someone goes out and bets 87 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 2: ten or fifteen bucks, people are like, oh, I agree, 88 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 2: I completely agree. You don't have to get nuts, you 89 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 2: don't have to do crazy bets. You really, you don't. 90 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 2: You can find just one thing you like. You can 91 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 2: only come out of the woodwork when stuff like this happens. 92 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 2: You can have some fun, you absolutely can, and last 93 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 2: night would have been a prime example of it. Can 94 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 2: I ask you a question, though, sure you really think 95 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 2: that Kyle Schwerver struggled like he did? You really don't 96 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 2: think there was a little bit of like, whoops, ooops, 97 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 2: little thing here, little thing here for good old Albert 98 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 2: Poolholes that I don't know, I don't know. 99 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: Me well, you know, actually, speaking of the pitching and 100 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: stuff like that too, Juan Soto's pitcher did not do 101 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 1: him any favors last night. Holy crap. When you watch 102 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: the guy who was throwing to Julio last night, who 103 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: literally was just he was like throwing darts at the 104 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:29,239 Speaker 1: exact same location. 105 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 2: You mean you mean Keith from the Precious Gemstones As 106 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,559 Speaker 2: I read it out, that was if you watch that show, 107 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 2: that was Keith from the Precious Gemstones. One percent. That 108 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 2: guy was amazing, but he's got amazing stories. 109 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: But dude, he was throwing darts in the same location 110 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: every time, and Julio was just rocket baseballs out one 111 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: soda was so good of a hitter that anytime a 112 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: ball is six inches away or even three inches away, 113 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: I should say he's hitting the ball the opposite field 114 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: and just hitting the line drive doubles. He can't change 115 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 1: how good he is as a player, which I think 116 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: it is always a fascinating thing to watch him. But 117 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: he's so good of a hitter that eventually I always 118 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: feel like he's gonna win out in these kind of things. 119 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 1: And Peter Alonzo looked at a great job. You know, 120 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 1: Peter Alonzo takes it so seriously. Would you think of 121 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 1: him deadlifting in between. 122 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 2: That goes that goes on the the what is it? 123 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 2: The Welsh's hardos and the Joe's hardos and the Welsh's 124 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 2: tough guy whatever it is, Like, I love that stuff. 125 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,919 Speaker 2: I love that about Peter Alonzo taking it way too seriously. Also, 126 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 2: did you see the interview after the first round. He 127 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 2: just had like no part of only like they're just like, hey, 128 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 2: how what do you think about this? He's like, yep, 129 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 2: I hit the heart. He just wasn't into like getting 130 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:38,239 Speaker 2: into crazy stuff. 131 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: He was just so and he takes it so serious 132 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 1: and I always wanted but it's it's so awesome. Like 133 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: I feel like we all want our athletes to be 134 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: for our entertainment, to take it that seriously. They care 135 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: so much. I do. And I think that Peter Alonzo 136 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: just gets it, like he just understands. And that's why 137 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: I feel like everybody just loves the dude. He's just, 138 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: you know, likable guy. He gets it, he understands, he 139 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: understands winning is important. He understands these events are important 140 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: to the fans. It I love that dude. He's great. 141 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: I do too. 142 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 2: One interest an interesting dynamic was you're talking about like 143 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 2: the bad pitching. Acunya was dealing with the same thing. 144 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 2: He looked like frustrating, especially really early on. 145 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 1: But why don't they have a pitching machine, Welsh? I mean, 146 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: why shouldn't they? 147 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 2: I mean, we have pitching strategy. Maybe that's as part 148 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 2: of the strategy is picking the guy who throws you 149 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 2: from pitching machine, can't I mean, that's it can just 150 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 2: bump up up. But some of these guys have a 151 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 2: certain way they want to be pitched, and you know, 152 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 2: but you can set up. 153 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: The pitching machine to get that location they want and 154 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 1: then just feed and feed and feed, right. 155 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean in theory. I again, it's a great question. 156 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: And then it would be even where that you take 157 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: the human error element out of it. That's I don't know. 158 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 2: But an interesting dynamic was did you see when Acunyan 159 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 2: knew like he wasn't they went to over a shot 160 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 2: of him on the ground just on his phone scrolling 161 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 2: because he was so frustrated, Like that was a different 162 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 2: type of taking it too serious by the way, like, yeah, 163 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 2: he was openly frustrated with the bad pitches. Did all 164 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 2: Right had the highest TV I think of the day 165 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 2: of any of the home run hits, And then he 166 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 2: was on his phone and as Alonzo hit it, He's 167 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 2: just sitting there scrolling on his phone. I was like, man, 168 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 2: I love that, But I also can appreciate I. 169 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: Think now you understand how him and Freddy Freeman had 170 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: their issues. I think when you see the moments like that, yeah, 171 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: maybe you know, I got Kuny's a little bit of 172 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: a powder. 173 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 2: But I also I can appreciate that type of like 174 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 2: pettiness of being like you're just you're so blah blah blah, 175 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 2: and you're just like I'm not gonna even watch, like 176 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 2: I'm gonna show you how mad I am, and I'm just. 177 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: Appreciate the Spike store. You appreciate it. It's good. There's 178 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: a there wasn't a look. Like I said, it was 179 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: very entertaining. If you missed it, go back and watch it. 180 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: I also thought the the Derek Jeter special after that 181 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: started was very good. I watched that too. The Captain. 182 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if you watched The Captain last night 183 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: after the derby was over, but that was good. That's 184 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: gonna be a funny series for sure. 185 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 2: Randy Wilkins, who's done some stuff with recently, did a 186 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 2: great panel at Picture Con last year with Picture List 187 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 2: was the one who that together if I remember maybe 188 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 2: that was a Jordan one. But real quick on because 189 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 2: I feel like we're going to move out of this. 190 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,119 Speaker 2: A couple of stats from the home run derby. 191 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, sure. 192 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 2: There were some amazing bets like coming back to what 193 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 2: you were saying and destigmatizing like being able to bet. 194 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: You also could go nuts. DraftKings last night had the 195 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 2: ability to draft like exit velocities on players and the 196 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 2: ability to draft total home runs and matchups and stuff 197 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 2: like that. And the highest EV was one seventeen of 198 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 2: any home run last night when we went to Ronald Acuna, 199 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 2: who had an over of one I believe thirteen and 200 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 2: a half. He was the number one I saw of 201 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 2: EV's one seventeen. The total home run total was two 202 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 2: fifty one and a half. 203 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:44,199 Speaker 1: To bet. 204 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 2: There were two hundred and ninety one homers hit, so 205 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 2: that went over. The average exit velocity was one of 206 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 2: four point six and the average distance of the homers 207 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 2: was four hundred and sixteen feet. 208 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: Well, you know what's interesting too. You know, we had 209 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: spoken at length, and I know I was talking about 210 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: it everywhere. This is a young man's game now, the 211 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: way they've set it up, and the guys who were 212 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: in the final were under twenty five years old. You 213 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: have to be athletically really fit to withstand the rounds 214 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: and the time of this and the way you can 215 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: have the timeouts and the bonus time and all this stuff, 216 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: you know, and that was something that was clear. Next year, 217 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: you get Julio in Seattle, hopefully doing this in front 218 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: of the hometown crowd. By the way, I don't know 219 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: if you thought about that, but that is going to 220 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: be fun and I will put my money on Julio 221 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: in that one. I think the energy from the crowd 222 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: will be a special moment there. 223 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 2: Well, the one thing that was wild, I don't know 224 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 2: if we talked about it on here. I had found 225 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 2: this out right after we did the show yesterday. But 226 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 2: he did a practice round. Julio did thirty seven homers. 227 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 2: He had put on early on, his number went from 228 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 2: like eighteen up to twenty six yesterday, and all day 229 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 2: long his numbers were just right. Julio's rising, rising, rising, 230 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 2: and you can look at it and be like, oh, 231 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,199 Speaker 2: I don't know if he can really put that together, 232 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 2: And then he showed he did with two thirty plus rounds, 233 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 2: thirty seven homer's in a practice round. He was able 234 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 2: to put that in game. And by the way, just 235 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 2: the last thing on it, if you remember, he started 236 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 2: the game off with a swing and miss, with an 237 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 2: absolute swing and miss on the very first pitch, and 238 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 2: then the crowd kind of got on him and he 239 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 2: proceeded to drop thirty plus homers on there. It is 240 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 2: a young man's game. It's going to be super fun. 241 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 2: And God knows the list of guys we're going to 242 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 2: get next year, maybe even some of the you know, 243 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 2: top prospects. We're sitting around now maybe a little Bobby 244 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 2: Wit definitely. 245 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 1: You know what. The other thing too, I don't like 246 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: is when they change the ball on them and the 247 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: bonus time you don't change the color of the baseball 248 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: on guys when they're in a groove hitting. It's it, 249 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 1: really And every single time nobody hit a first pitch 250 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 1: home run or a second pitch home run. Yeah, like 251 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: every time they switched to that ball, it took them 252 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: like two or three to get an adjustment to it. 253 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: And even even the announcer was saying it last night too, And. 254 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 2: I'd like three point contest when they do, you know, 255 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 2: like the weird ball. 256 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 1: For the works up here, but in practice it doesn't work. 257 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: It's theoretically I get it, it's cool, but it's super 258 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: annoying to the play because they were locked in and 259 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: the way they look for the baseball and it's a 260 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: different rotation. It's totally I agree with that. 261 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 2: I agree with that fun fact a ton of the 262 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,719 Speaker 2: baseballs were autographed, so as they were being hit and 263 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 2: people were getting their souvenir, people were collecting autographed baseballs 264 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: from the home run derby, which I thought was a 265 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 2: really cool added thing. I don't know how many they did, 266 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 2: but many of them were so you know, you know 267 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 2: what else twenty three miles of Homer's. 268 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: Starling Marte hanging out with Jan Soto, that all that 269 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: did was just fuel my Mets. 270 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 2: Fire, fueled the little bit of the fire. 271 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: Did you think about that? I mean you had to 272 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: be thinking about that in your back of your head. 273 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: You be like, Joe must be watching this, going yes, yes, 274 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 1: starting Marte recruit. 275 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 2: I was a little shocked with the amount of like 276 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 2: just trade talk that was going on. I mean, you 277 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 2: had Muster only go on and be like, hey, he's 278 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 2: getting traded in the next fifteen days. 279 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: Oji. 280 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 2: You got reporters asking Soda. Sodo had the best responses ever. 281 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 2: They asked him, hey, what do you think about, you know, 282 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 2: hitting in New York And he goes, oh, I love 283 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 2: playing against the Mets, and he said laying against the 284 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 2: Mets like six times and uh and even players were 285 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 2: being asked. Manny Machado commented on it. It was a wild 286 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 2: situation that I don't know, man, I will tell you 287 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 2: I was fifty percent that he gets traded by the deadline, 288 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 2: like sixty. Now I moved a little bit top after 289 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 2: all that it was really really a good situation. 290 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: But meet me at the ninety nine. That's where I 291 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: want to be. 292 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,599 Speaker 2: National's going to go trade generational talent. Guy who just 293 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 2: runs a home in Derby. What are they going to 294 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 2: trade him for? The team is goingna to unload, whether 295 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 2: it's Padres or the Mets. They are going to have 296 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 2: to unload their system to make this work. The Nationals 297 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 2: cannot lose face on this, even though they already theoretically 298 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 2: are all right. 299 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: Some other news and notes optimism that Joe Musgrove is 300 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: going to be assigning a contract extension with the Padres. 301 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: That would be a very good move for the Padres. 302 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,559 Speaker 1: A show ay Otani unlikely to pitch in the AFSCAR game. 303 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: No surprise there. You are going to get Clayton Kershaw starting, 304 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 1: which makes a lot of sense. I think it's fun. 305 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: Dodger Stadium, blah blah. Yeah, that Haam is going to 306 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: start for the American League. Yes, Well, did you see. 307 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 2: Your former co host Craig Mish kind of got out 308 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 2: and like a very very intense like he's still together 309 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:09,559 Speaker 2: in the fall. No, I don't know, I mean, I 310 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 2: don't know what you guys do. But I'm just saying, 311 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 2: what you guys do in the in the shadows, I'm 312 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 2: not fine cheet on man, that's your only go okay. 313 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 2: But he had a tweet where he was like, I've 314 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 2: never it was like, I've never been so disappointed. What 315 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 2: a missed opportunity, Like he was pissed that al Kintara 316 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 2: did not get. 317 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: The Oh he well, look he's following. He's the Marlins 318 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: beat hit. He's not wrong. I mean, he's not wrong. 319 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: This is baseball building the theater. I mean there is 320 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: only one pitcher who deserves to start for the National League. 321 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: It's very clear who that guy is. And they went 322 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: with Kershaw, who is good theater. And to me, I 323 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: get that it's it's the starting of the All Star Game. 324 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: But to me, from the rating standpoint, you're gonna get 325 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: early inning ratings anyway. Keep Kershaw a little bit, have 326 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: him be the second guy to keep people watching so 327 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: he gets that ovation when he takes the man when 328 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,599 Speaker 1: he walks out like that could be cool too. It 329 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: also be the old guy, asked King, saying, look, you know, 330 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: I'm old. The back isn't what it used to be. 331 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 1: I need to do my routine be able to start 332 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: if you want me to pitch in this game. Otherwise 333 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: I can't come in the third inning like that work 334 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: doesn't suit for me. 335 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 2: Bob Bagman was pretty a suit about this. That just 336 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 2: snickers an old old school manager. Let the veteran go, 337 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 2: hometown guy. I hadn't put that together. Missu's actual tweet was, 338 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 2: I'm so disappointed beyond words for Sandy. I love history 339 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 2: and ceremony more than anyone, but this is complete horse 340 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 2: little poop emoji once in a lifetime chance missed. I 341 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 2: was like, oh, that's a pretty intense thing. I get it, 342 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 2: probably the most deserved, but you do have to think 343 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 2: of the context of LA and a guy that's right there. 344 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: It just makes look it's good for the business of baseball, 345 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: but it's not the right decision. But I understand. I said, 346 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: I think the real thing here, more than anything, is 347 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: probably Clayton Kershall saying, my routine is very set. If 348 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: you want me in this game, I've got to do 349 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: the pre in routine in order to get ready for 350 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: it nowadays because my body doesn't respond like it did 351 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: when I was twenty seven years old. And I think 352 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: that is a fair assumption too. When you factor that in, 353 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: it is unfortunate though for all contra I mean, it's 354 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: it's just is. The Rangers selected the top prep arm 355 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: porter in the fourth round, so we get Welsh's take 356 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: on that. Also, we had some injury news to talk about. 357 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: Steven Strasburg out for the year. Pretty much official at 358 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: this point, not that anybody was waiting breaking news, breaking news. 359 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: Is Steven Strasbourg done? Period, Well we're gonna see him 360 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: you again. 361 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 2: He was done. I made a stupid bet with Bogman 362 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 2: this year that I thought, back half you might get 363 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 2: you know, Strasburg out there doing the thing and just 364 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 2: you can't do it. He's just just breaks apart. 365 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: Just snaps syndrome and another career telling him he was done. 366 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 2: He is done. I'm the Nationals would probably. I'm surprised 367 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: the Nationals haven't come to him with like a Bobby 368 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 2: Bonia type of thing, like can we just stretch this 369 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 2: out over the next thirty five years and just new 370 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 2: ownership money because it's a contractual nightmare. One of the 371 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 2: reasons you could theorize that might be conflicting with Wan Soto, 372 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 2: you know, the some of the rumors at least is 373 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 2: the supposed offer to Juan Soto is so backloaded because 374 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 2: the Nationals have got some serious money still tied and 375 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 2: Strasburg is one of those issues that maybe that is 376 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 2: part of it. 377 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: Is it worth a nets? Like if you're the Mets 378 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: or the Dodgers or anybody, is it worth not moving 379 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: the prospects and taking Strasburg's contract back in the deal 380 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 1: with Sodo. 381 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 2: I mean I will never sit here and be a 382 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 2: money guy like that. I'll never be like, oh hey, 383 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 2: let's just financially get a little bit better. No, you 384 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 2: should take all the pieces you possibly can because here's 385 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 2: the other thing, Like the Nationals, where's the appeal if 386 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 2: you get to Juan Soto, what's the appeal? Is just 387 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 2: a bunch of money. Like they're you know what they're 388 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 2: gonna do, agree, Texas Rangers. They're going to have to 389 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 2: go and sign and spend half a billion dollars on 390 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 2: guys like Corey Seeger and Marcus Simeon. And that's not 391 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 2: what you want to do to create a whole new era. 392 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 2: You want to build with within. You want to have 393 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 2: a star or two to get people that want to 394 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 2: come play with you, and you just completely start over. 395 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 2: I don't particularly love how the I mean, the Rangers 396 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 2: are doing this in an interesting way. It's not ideal, 397 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 2: and I think that's where the Nationals are headed. 398 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: So I Rangers could have John Gray, Jack Lighter, Kamar 399 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: Rocker and a pretty decent little team. 400 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 2: But again that's decent. I mean, the Nationals are a 401 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 2: huge market team. They want to be highly competitive. Look 402 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 2: at the money and look at the people that they've 403 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 2: let go because of the next guy. You know, the 404 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 2: next guy goes to pay this other guy, and ultimately 405 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 2: once they pay him or can't pay him, they just 406 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 2: move along. They got to figure something out. You can't continuously. 407 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: But you're not gonna I'm telling you right now, if 408 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: you if you package soda with Strasbourg or Corbyn or 409 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: whoever you're taking along with it, they are not going 410 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,719 Speaker 1: to get the same hall of prospects. No, there's no 411 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: way that, there's no way that all comes together. You 412 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 1: might get one premium one and that, but you're not 413 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 1: going to get the backup truck of prospects and unloading 414 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 1: one of those two major contracts. I just don't think 415 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:02,719 Speaker 1: you're gonna get. 416 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 2: I would back up the truck. I would ask them 417 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 2: to back up the truck. 418 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: That's what I would do too, But it's kind of 419 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 1: an interesting conversation to have Chris Sale undergo surgery manufractured finger. 420 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: Frankie Montos is cleared for Thursday, so fingers crossed. The 421 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: entire Oakland A's organization is going to be going to 422 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 1: churches all over the local area and lighting candles, hoping 423 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 1: that Frankie Montos makes it through five innings so they 424 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: could trade him. The Angels place Mike Trout on the 425 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: ten day IL, and Mike Trout says he's going to 426 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: be captain of the Team USA team in the World 427 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: Baseball Classic. So there you go. There's your there's your 428 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 1: Mike Trout news of the day. Here's a leading off 429 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: mailbag question from our own Larry C. Who do you 430 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,919 Speaker 1: think will be the first player from yesterday's draft to 431 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,479 Speaker 1: make it to the big League's Welsh. 432 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 2: That has been a very common question right now. Well, 433 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 2: this exact question were I did a CBS hit that's 434 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 2: up today and we were going through this. The first 435 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 2: part is I don't think there's any guy that does 436 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 2: the jump, you know, that does the whole like, hey, 437 00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 2: we're not like Carrott Crochet, we're not going to play 438 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 2: in the miners, but that's not necessarily what you were asking. 439 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 2: My gut tells me the first is one of two 440 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 2: guys and the outside shot. If the Angels were a 441 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 2: really good team, I would have said Ben Joyce. Ben 442 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,199 Speaker 2: Joyce his famously throws one hundred and five miles an 443 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 2: hour at Tennessee. He's a back half reliever, could be 444 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 2: an instant closer. And as I said, like, I think 445 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,159 Speaker 2: a guy that throws one hundred and five you could 446 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:27,399 Speaker 2: probably throw in right now. But the Angels suck the worst, 447 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 2: so why would you go and do that? That would 448 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:33,120 Speaker 2: be one And also, oh, I guess no. I think 449 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 2: Garrett Crochet was a volunteer as well, so that could 450 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 2: be part of that. The other guy is Jacob Berry 451 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 2: with the Marlins, and Miss actually covered this as well. 452 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 2: They're gonna start pushing and moving and Jacob Barry was 453 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 2: with U of A moved to LSU, big big time team, 454 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 2: and I think that's a possibility that he could be 455 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 2: out there with huge, huge power. Doesn't strike out like 456 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 2: one of those big boppers, does he actually walked, I 457 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 2: believe more than he struck out in the miners. So 458 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 2: that's like my gut feeling. But I really think it's 459 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 2: a big clump of players that seem a lot. I 460 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 2: want to say Kumar Rocker, but I haven't heard the plan. 461 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 2: But that's a guy's old enough for you. 462 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: You got to figure. Look, you know, you don't want 463 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: to waste too much time. You're to waste a year 464 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: last year, he's older than was he twenty three twenty four? 465 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 1: Like he's old. 466 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, and that's the thing. If they do what 467 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 2: they did with Lighter last year, then I'll say no. 468 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 2: And what they did with Lighter last year is they 469 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 2: just said go have fun and workout. They did nothing. 470 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 2: He didn't pitch it all professionally, and then boom, you're 471 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 2: at double A this year. But if they push him 472 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 2: up to double A this year, I think there's a 473 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 2: legit shot they might look at him breaking camp next year. 474 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 2: It depends on the medicals, and it depends on how 475 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 2: aggressive they go, because they've also shown they can be 476 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 2: the opposite of aggressive with Lighter last year. So I 477 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 2: would say Ben Joyce, Jacob Barry, Kumar Rocker are my top. 478 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 2: And then obviously you know some great college guys like 479 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 2: Kevin Parrada, brooks Ley Brooksley probably not with the twins. 480 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 2: Those are a few options. 481 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: I love that you loved Parada because as a Mets fan, 482 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,679 Speaker 1: I was a little, you know, kind of surprised at 483 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 1: the pick in some ways. But I was like, well, 484 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 1: you know, I guess if they think Alvarez is a 485 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: piece to move, then I got every players that catching 486 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: systems sooner than later. 487 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 2: So he's just great. Yeah, And as I've speculated, like 488 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 2: I told you before, was very attached to the Nationals, 489 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 2: so just something to watch. The Nationals were coming to him, 490 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 2: were like this, they were in all the mocks. It 491 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 2: was proud oft to the Nationals. 492 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: All right, let's do a little Kamara Rocker trivia sort 493 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 1: of kind of prior to who was the last player 494 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: taking the top ten of two different MLB drafts. If 495 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,719 Speaker 1: you know the answer, drop it here in the chat. 496 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: Who's the last player to be taken top ten in 497 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: two MLB drafts? So again, you have to be somebody 498 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 1: who subscribes to Fantasy Pros MLB. Let's see if anybody's 499 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 1: got some answers in there before Welsh, before Welsh ruins 500 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 1: it for every prospect knowledge. I think you are because 501 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: you're too smart about these things. Sometimes don't ruin it. 502 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 2: But I don't think I'm going to My guess I 503 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 2: think is wrong and it's because of this. Do you 504 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 2: want me to wait or wait? 505 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: Let's do the home run board and then we'll come 506 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 1: back to it. All right, here's the home run leaders 507 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 1: at the all star break, High Cobbies at thirty five, 508 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: Diplommeat thirty two, Larry c A thirty one. Now this 509 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,919 Speaker 1: was going into yesterday's home run derby. We will factor 510 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 1: in all the derby stuff. I'm sure there's a lot 511 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: of complicated math that has to happen. So again, this 512 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: is heading. This is not from the derby last night. 513 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: This was heading into the derby on Monday, so I 514 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: just wanted to be clear about that. But still high 515 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: cobbies up at the top. Very exciting times when it's 516 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 1: time to be alive. All right, Welsh, I will let 517 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,199 Speaker 1: you throw out an answer here, and somebody is in 518 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: the chat also that has an answer. 519 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 2: So that was my answer was Mark Pelle. But the 520 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 2: reason I think I'm wrong, because if I'm remembering correctly, 521 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,679 Speaker 2: I actually think of Pelle was twelve to the Pirates. 522 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 2: The year before and then he went top or is 523 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 2: this correct? And it is Markpell? That was my guest. 524 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: It is Markapelle. Oh, it is Mark one, and ten's 525 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: ten okay. 526 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,399 Speaker 2: For some reason, I was thinking it was twelve. 527 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 1: And I remember getting into a legit Twitter beef about 528 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: Mark Pell versus John Gray, and I think it was 529 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: with oh Mike Ginella, who was one of the great 530 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: baseball fun people who I actually love. Mike, and we 531 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: were arguing back and forth about Markpelle and John gra 532 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: I was like, how can you watch these two guys 533 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: pitch to think that Marcopelle is better than John Gray? 534 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 1: I don't understand how any I was like, you're right, 535 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: Like he's gonna have a tougher road because he's in Colorado. 536 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: But you know what, John Gray's in the big leagues 537 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: right now. In John Gray in Texas in the last 538 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: thirty days looks awesome by the way, I mean, not good, 539 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: well awesome. Can we look at the last thirty days 540 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 1: of John Gray and just sit back and be like, 541 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: what it's really good? You?

That's one word of 549 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: bet MGM, the King of sportsbooks. And today we've had 550 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: some fun things. Here we're gonna talk about the line. 551 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: We have the American League as favored one and a half, 552 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: the Juices plus one sixty eight over on that line. 553 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 1: Here we have the money line just to win outright, 554 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 1: the American League at minus one oh six, the National 555 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 1: League minus one ten. The total is seven and a half. 556 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: Welsh is a very good number, as all all Star 557 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: games are. Do you think it goes the over or 558 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: the under man? 559 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 2: I mean, it's just such a crew of pitch I 560 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 2: would go with the over. I think on this, I 561 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 2: think there's just some massive offense at the top that 562 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,920 Speaker 2: it could stutter a little bit. The NL is littered 563 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 2: with relievers, and I think the back half is going 564 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 2: to be a heavy, heavy amount of relievers, which I 565 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 2: think could get hit just a tiny bit. More So, 566 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: I guess I would lean the over. I would not 567 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 2: bet the line anywhere. I guess if you did, you 568 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 2: would want to take the two runs on the American League, 569 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 2: but I don't really like those. I would stick to 570 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 2: the over total for me, and that would be seven 571 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 2: and a half. 572 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: All right. You also have All Star MVP the odds 573 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 1: for Otani at the top plus four eight, the Iron 574 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: Judge at plus six hundred, Vlad at plus eight fifty, 575 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: which you think is awful, Like that is an awful setting. 576 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,120 Speaker 1: I don't know why he's up there. Goldshman at plus 577 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 1: nine to fifty. Excuse me, go Mookie Betts at plus 578 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: nine to fifty, Paul Goldshman at plus thirteen hundred, Gen 579 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 1: Carl Stanton plus thirteen hundred. Do you like any of 580 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 1: these top six favorites or do you like anybody in 581 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: the long shots? To me, it's always a long shot 582 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,640 Speaker 1: guy who comes in later and like hits a bomb 583 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: off a reliever, Like that's That's what I'm looking for. 584 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: And I'm going tonight with my home run call for 585 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 1: Julio Rodriguez, by the way, to do that, because the 586 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: dude's locked it, So give me Julio off some slap 587 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 1: nut reliever later in this game, and who knows he 588 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: could win the MLB All Star Game MVP award. 589 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 2: Just say that's a good point actually, because he will 590 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 2: be coming in, knows where to hit him. It probably 591 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 2: will be relief. I just told you a bunch of 592 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 2: relievers in the NL. That's an interesting one. I think 593 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 2: my bet here is one of my favorite things to do. 594 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 2: I'm probably going three long shots, betting them all the same, 595 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 2: slicing a little bit of the odds off, but going 596 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 2: in that range, like maybe I take a ton one 597 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 2: and then I take two long shots. I like Mooki 598 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 2: just simply being hometown, and maybe something like Julio. Maybe 599 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 2: I go a Judge Mooki and then one other long shot. 600 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,440 Speaker 2: I still throw a Kunya in there. I mean, I 601 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 2: CuNi had a one seventeen ev I believe he's leading off, 602 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 2: so I wouldn't throw him out of that. But I 603 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 2: kind of like your Julio idea. That's a fun one 604 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 2: as well. But I would go three. I would go three, 605 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 2: even if you're a ten buck guy, just go ten 606 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 2: to ten, get three of them and get some go. 607 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: Well, that's what I was just gonna say. Find three people, 608 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: you know, find one of the big favorite guys maybe, 609 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 1: I mean, Otani's always a good one, very public player, 610 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: you know, So I get the Altoni one, you're still 611 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,159 Speaker 1: getting more than four to one on Altani. Take a 612 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 1: Julio and then take somebody in the middle like that's 613 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: that's that's the approach, that's what you do and have 614 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: some fun. You'll take thirty bucks, maybe hit one. If 615 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: you don't, you don't, it's a good time. But if 616 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: you take I would I would suggest this be in 617 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: for a penny, in for a pound, Like, if you're 618 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 1: gonna take three American League guys, you might as well 619 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: bet the American League to win two and see if 620 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: you can put that all together. 621 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 2: That's a great point. And if and if you go, 622 00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 2: you know, the one and a half runs, you're getting 623 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 2: almost one and a half on your money. 624 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: If you're right now on fandom. So I would I 625 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 1: would strongly look at that. Look at what bet MGM 626 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:10,159 Speaker 1: has to offer you as well, where we have our 627 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: leading off promo there.

Let's see I'm gonna go I'm 631 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 2: gonna go Judge. I think Judge is gonna put off 632 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:26,880 Speaker 2: a big, big homer. Would have loved to see him 633 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 2: in the home run contest and. 634 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 1: Definitely would have been fun. 635 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, that would have been fun. You know what else 636 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 2: would be fun? What if we got like a MIGI 637 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 2: or pool Holes bomb tonight. That would be the legacy 638 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 2: guys would more likely. I feel like, but I want Julio. 639 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 2: I want Julio to do it. I would love for 640 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 2: the young kid to get it. But if we want 641 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 2: to play the speculation game and the conspiracy side, let's 642 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 2: get one Soto again. Let's get one Soto in the 643 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 2: MVP of this. Let's get him hitting a homer, and 644 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 2: then let's just laugh ourselves to sleep for the next 645 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 2: two weeks of rumors. Becauseladies and gentlemen, it's gonna be 646 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,439 Speaker 2: a wild couple weeks. So make sure you guys are 647 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 2: hanging out with us because the trade deadline, oh my god, 648 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 2: be nutting. 649 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 1: The trade deadline is gonna be super fun. I might 650 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: have to like, I think we're gonna get action well 651 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,360 Speaker 1: before the trade deadline, though, I really do. I wish 652 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: the break, you know, because I think that with the 653 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: the extra wildcard, like the expanded playoffs, I think put 654 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,679 Speaker 1: more pressure on teams to make moves earlier, like you 655 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: don't want to wait to the deadline. I think also 656 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: going to be dead to. 657 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 2: Move off, like there's a diamondbacks for one of those 658 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,919 Speaker 2: that could have been selling off way earlier and have not. 659 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 2: And when it comes, you know, push comes to shove here, 660 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 2: there are teams that are gonna have to make those decisions. 661 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 2: So I think the lack of moves is to what 662 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 2: you're saying. But that's why you are potentially gonna have 663 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 2: a flurry of teams that have to you know, you. 664 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: Will get two waves. I think you're gonna get an 665 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: early wave here out of the break of bigger trades, 666 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: and then you're gonna get that Okay, we really are 667 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: out of it, let's start dumping. You'll get some surprise deadline. 668 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: But I think any of the montass Castillo, even Sodo deals, 669 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: I don't think they're going to be deadline day yields. 670 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: They really don't. I'd be surprised. I think they're gonna 671 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: get worked out ahead of time, maybe closer to it. 672 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: But I think it's I'm telling you, buckle up, Buttercup, 673 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: It's gonna be fun. I know. August first is the 674 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: day where I'm not supposed to, you know, be doing 675 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: baseball anymore. But August second, I might have to pop 676 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 1: in here and do the show. I mean, like, I mean, 677 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: let's be honest, we might have to come in here. 678 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 1: If it's a huge trade deadline and if there's a 679 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: Sodo trade. I mean, I feel like we have to 680 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: do some sort of you know, special event. I mean 681 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: I kind of agree. 682 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 2: I might have to put that on the schedule.
