WEBVTT - MLB: Leading Off July 26th, 2022 (Ep. 560) 0:00:16.440 --> 0:00:20.239 What's up, friends, and welcome in to leading off with 0:00:20.480 --> 0:00:24.560 Bogman and the Welsh. The in this League invasion rolls on, 0:00:24.840 --> 0:00:27.760 My friends, how is everybody doing? Peanuts and cracker jacks? 0:00:27.800 --> 0:00:30.080 We got Wonky in the chat and we have got 0:00:30.320 --> 0:00:33.559 the one, the only, mister Scoot Boogman. Scott Bogman at 0:00:33.560 --> 0:00:36.400 Bogman Sports on Twitter. Oh hi, Scott, how are you? 0:00:36.920 --> 0:00:39.479 I'm good, Wels. It's been a little bit since we talked. 0:00:39.520 --> 0:00:41.440 Of course, you know, we definitely don't spend way too 0:00:41.520 --> 0:00:45.120 much time together, so that's good. But I'm excited to 0:00:45.159 --> 0:00:48.080 be back and on this show and talk to you 0:00:48.120 --> 0:00:50.760 about some baseball today. We had a good one last night. 0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:51.720 Dbacks were awesome. 0:00:52.400 --> 0:00:54.120 Dvacs were awesome, as we gonna tell them the v 0:00:54.240 --> 0:00:56.520 Backs here. What better way to start off the show 0:00:56.560 --> 0:00:59.680 than your favorite thing than talking negatively about the Los 0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:03.760 Angeles Dodgers. How about that? Because Tony Gonsolyn finally took 0:01:03.880 --> 0:01:06.319 his soul. I know, he finally took his first loss 0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:09.120 of the year Monday, after allowing four runs in the 0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:12.280 six against the Nationals. He had not allowed a run 0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:15.959 more than two earned runs in a start this season. 0:01:16.040 --> 0:01:19.320 Bogman i had actually wrote up a couple of weeks 0:01:19.360 --> 0:01:23.480 prior in the Cell Them by Cell article, Tony Gonsoon 0:01:23.560 --> 0:01:26.479 was my guy. It's kind of like old hat news 0:01:26.520 --> 0:01:30.920 here at this point. It's like, you know, super super. 0:01:30.640 --> 0:01:34.480 Low expectations were looking for finally back through here. Yeah, 0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:38.440 I mean you have been spearheading this. Tony Gonsoon is 0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:40.679 going to be no good in the second half because 0:01:40.720 --> 0:01:43.600 I believe his lob was like ninety nine percent or 0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:47.400 something absurd that backup was under two hundred. He was. 0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:50.080 It was like him and one other picture in the BIGS. 0:01:50.160 --> 0:01:52.880 I know these numbers because you've repeated them so many times. 0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:55.000 You know. What was was brutal. I saw. I was 0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:57.000 like tuning into the game. I had a prop going 0:01:57.080 --> 0:02:00.400 last night. Freddy Freeman did not pay off. Brandon Jury did. 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:03.240 For anybody that took that with me, Freddy Freeman did 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:05.680 not pay off, unfortunately. So I was watching that game 0:02:05.720 --> 0:02:07.920 a bit to see if that prop was going to hit. 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:09.880 And it was like early on and I'd come in 0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:12.400 for like Freddy Freeman at baths and Gonsolin was kind 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:15.480 of dealing a little bit earlier, and I was like, sure, 0:02:15.560 --> 0:02:17.919 you use Gonsolin, like I'm like how I was actually 0:02:17.919 --> 0:02:20.440 having that question in your head where it's like, all right, 0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:22.040 we know regressions coming. 0:02:22.480 --> 0:02:25.880 But how much is it to go before whatever? 0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:28.360 The underlying things don't really matter. It's kind of like 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:30.600 Christian Walker with the Diamondbacks. You and I have talked 0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:34.080 about second Lois, babbitb and all of baseball. I'm not 0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:35.679 sure how much is it going to matter if he 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:37.840 just carries it the whole time, like you know, a 0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:40.160 historical thing would till you, it would change Shane Bieber 0:02:40.160 --> 0:02:43.120 Tony Gonsolin. So I was, I was questioning myself last 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:44.919 time and think. 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:48.080 Don't every question yourself? Come on, well, what are you 0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:50.760 think in here? You were on the right path in 0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:54.040 this This result that we were waiting for finally did happen. 0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:57.040 So there it is. Yes, I mean, and handing an 0:02:57.200 --> 0:02:59.720 L to any Dodger feeds my soul. 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.360 It does, It does feed your soul one hundred percent. 0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:02.800 Uh. 0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:06.280 We also in uh Dodger news Walker Buehler played a 0:03:06.560 --> 0:03:08.880 played a little catch, played a little bit of throsies 0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:12.440 last time yesterday. I believe it was getting closer. Bogman, 0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:16.320 do you call it uh having a catch or having 0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:18.280 a throw? Do you know the term. 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:21.119 Yeah, I just say playing catch. 0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:23.440 Okay, because I see a lot of people saying like, 0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:26.480 we're gonna have a catch. Not well, that is like 0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:28.760 a Midwest thing because that I've never experienced. 0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:29.640 Its feel the dreams. 0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:30.040 Uh. 0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:32.359 When he has a catch with his dad, that's what 0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:32.919 he calls it. 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:35.200 So everybody likes to have We're gonna we're gonna have 0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:36.680 a catch. We're gonna play some catch. 0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:39.440 Yeah, okay, we're gonna we're gonna have a catch. 0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:39.800 Yeah. 0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:41.640 It's either play catch or have a catch. 0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:45.360 Yeah. Gokart says it's playing catch. I say it's playing catch. 0:03:45.560 --> 0:03:48.120 But there's a catch in there. Oh, have a toss, 0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:49.200 you have. 0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:53.360 A toss, you know, throw some There's all kinds of 0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:54.280 different ways to say it. 0:03:54.480 --> 0:03:57.400 So you okay, you're like whatever, Just let's not keep 0:03:57.440 --> 0:03:59.080 talking about it making me feel uncomfortable. 0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:02.360 It doesn't make me feel uncomfortable. It's just, you know, 0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:08.280 Walker Peeler, there are regional differences still, you know me, man, 0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:12.400 I like, guys already hurt. He's gonna be slowly baby back. 0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:13.920 They want him for the playoff. They don't want him 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:16.280 for the end of the regular season. So you know, 0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:20.479 I don't know for fantasy. I'm not really excited. Yeah, yeah, 0:04:21.040 --> 0:04:22.000 we're gonna baby him. 0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:23.920 Look at go cards. By the way, do you guys 0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:26.080 even watch baseball? It's playing catch. 0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:27.400 So that's what he was saying. 0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:31.159 He was saying, there another big injury starting picture news. 0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:36.240 Jacob de Grom set for triple A rehabitt assignment tomorrow 0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:40.080 on Wednesday, bogs and perceivably the last one. This will 0:04:40.120 --> 0:04:43.920 be the last dog was the last one? No, no, no, no, 0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:46.480 it wasn't gonna be the last one. It was just 0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:50.480 uh yeah, it's just getting ramped up, Bogman. Oh is 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:53.600 that right? Yeah, don't talk negatively about Jacob de Grom. 0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:56.080 This is the last one, the last of the last ones, 0:04:56.560 --> 0:05:00.360 which would line him up probably for like a gosh. 0:05:00.400 --> 0:05:02.680 I think it was they were saying, like Monday, the 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.360 first something like that would be the I don't think 0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:05.920 that lies. 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:09.480 What they're saying, Monday, the first of September or August. 0:05:09.640 --> 0:05:11.560 I'm not sure which one it is for Jacob de 0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:15.280 Gram anymore so. Uh, the setbacks scared me. I was 0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:17.560 already off of Jacob de Gram. You guys know that, 0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:19.760 I you know, you talk about someone who's gonna be 0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:24.000 unbelievably babied. He already has been through the rehab process 0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:26.960 because he's still he's gonna be playing hurt. You know, 0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:30.960 torn UCLs don't go away because you you rested on 0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:35.160 them for a couple of months. So, uh, it was 0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:36.279 your dad, Homer Simpson. 0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:39.960 But that's very funny today. That's funny today. But I'm 0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:43.120 optimistic we're gonna be all eyes on it. You know, 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:46.280 I don't know if they're doing this MLB. This was 0:05:46.360 --> 0:05:48.640 like whatever right before the All Star Game. They ended 0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:52.800 up broadcasting on MLB dot TV the rehab start that 0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:55.200 he had, and I don't know if they are expecting 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:56.800 to get that going bolus. 0:05:56.920 --> 0:05:59.560 I mean that's what I said, Like, it's it's fun. 0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:01.560 We want to watch Jacob Grum and see what he's doing. 0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:04.760 But I mean there's plenty of you know, uh, there's 0:06:04.800 --> 0:06:08.279 plenty of fourteen year olds throwing against eight year olds 0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:10.720 and stuff. We could go watch on YouTube too. It 0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:14.840 looks like the same stuff because de Grom just outclasses 0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:16.600 every single level. It's not even close. 0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:19.080 Yeah, I mean, it's it's a brutal experience for any 0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:19.600 of these guys. 0:06:19.640 --> 0:06:23.120 The outlasses, the big leagues. Yeah, you should be playing 0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:25.279 in the big big leagues, right, yeah, yeah. 0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:25.719 One hundred percent. 0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:26.000 Yeah. 0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:27.080 Is there a bigger big league? 0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:28.560 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:30.560 I mean that's called like the Subway Series or you know, 0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:33.560 playing the Dodgers or something, that's the big big league. Unfortunately, 0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:37.640 not playing in Toronto, Bogman is going to be Paul 0:06:37.680 --> 0:06:41.279 gold Schmith and Nolan Aernauto, who are both officially placed 0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:44.360 on the restricted list, So we don't have to go 0:06:44.480 --> 0:06:45.720 down that or abbit hall. 0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:47.440 We have to go on that hall. But yeah, I'm 0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:49.040 gonna say a good thing. We have it on the 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:51.480 sheet here, let's talk about let's let's really get into it. 0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:54.880 I'm oh, yeah, it sucks. You know, you miss those 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:56.840 guys for three games, but they'll be back after that, 0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:57.920 so at least they're not hurt. 0:06:58.160 --> 0:07:00.200 So two games, but yeah, I think it's just two 0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:03.200 games series going to be Yeah, yeah, exactly. But both 0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:05.480 placed on the restricted list. You mentioned it. Merle Kelly. 0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:10.280 Merle Meryl Kelly fired eight scoreless innings as the Diamondbacks 0:07:10.360 --> 0:07:12.320 beat up on the Giants seven to nothing. And I 0:07:12.440 --> 0:07:15.360 believe they had a late switch by the way where 0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:18.440 it was supposed to be Tyler Gilbert pitching yesterday, and 0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:21.440 they put it in Kelly was going and then Gilbert 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:23.480 is going today. I think that was maybe there's an 0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:25.520 expectation thing in there, but Meryl. 0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:28.840 That sound was awesome. He was, and in fact, he 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:33.080 was so good that it actually led to what we're 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:34.800 going to be doing on our down the rabbit hole 0:07:34.880 --> 0:07:38.880 over at il today because I text you in the 0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:41.000 middle of this in the fifth inning when he was 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:44.120 perfect through five. Yeah, I text you and I said, 0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:46.960 might want to flip on, Meryl Kelly to what's what 0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:50.520 tonight on that game and first batter in the sixth 0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:53.120 inning base hit, of course, because that's just the way 0:07:53.160 --> 0:07:57.320 it works. So maybe started thinking about baseball superstitions and 0:07:57.360 --> 0:07:58.040 stuff that. 0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:01.320 So exactly is h We have a like a little 0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:03.320 comedy show of Bogman and I do, and it's going 0:08:03.360 --> 0:08:07.440 to be all about superstitions and the sports superstitions. Because 0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:09.560 I went into the game Diamondbacks, I think scored a 0:08:09.600 --> 0:08:12.920 couple runs in there, and then I think, yeah, immediately 0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:15.640 gave up the hit, and it got me thinking, as 0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:20.000 we're going to talk about it, I think the acknowledging 0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:25.040 a no hitter perfect game might be the greatest sports 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:28.280 superstition that lives. I don't think there's a bet. I mean, 0:08:28.320 --> 0:08:30.440 I'd be curious about it. This is for our other show, 0:08:30.880 --> 0:08:32.679 but you know you can be here. I don't know 0:08:32.760 --> 0:08:35.679 if there's a bigger superstition, if you can be more 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:40.560 stitious on anything outside of the don't call a perfect 0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:42.160 game or no hitter. I think it might be the 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:44.760 biggest one of all. But you know what, we will 0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:47.800 discuss that later. But Merril was awesome last night. I 0:08:47.880 --> 0:08:51.079 thought this one was interesting. Jonathan India getting back to it. 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:54.079 Bogman launched his first career Grand Slam Monday as the 0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:56.839 Red beat up on the Marlins. He was hitting two 0:08:56.920 --> 0:09:00.640 oh five July fifth, which was my daughter and life's birthday. 0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:04.679 He is now up to two forty. We had let go. 0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:07.720 We've completely let go of Jonathan India. People are ready 0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:10.000 to cut him. I actually turned down a trade earlier 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:12.599 in the years of Points League though, so India for 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:16.959 Max Meyer and I'm just curious, are you back on 0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:19.959 the Jonathan India train. He's hit around two sixty in 0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:22.600 the month of July. He had a horrific previous month. 0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:27.040 Injuries have been there, but looks like he's he's getting 0:09:27.080 --> 0:09:29.720 back and has raised his batting average almost forty points 0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:30.920 since July fifth. 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:34.120 Yeah, I mean, I'm in on Jonathan India and I 0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:36.400 think it's one of those cases and you've seen it 0:09:36.480 --> 0:09:38.760 many many times. I feel like ti Oscar Hernandez had 0:09:38.800 --> 0:09:41.920 it earlier in this season as well, where the guy 0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:45.160 just came back too early, you know, and it was 0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:48.000 maybe it wasn't bothering him, maybe it just threw him 0:09:48.040 --> 0:09:49.839 into a funk, you could. It's hard to tell with 0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:52.400 that stuff because you know, we're not talking to these 0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:54.640 guys every single day. But it's like, is this still 0:09:54.800 --> 0:09:57.120 hampering you and bothering you or are you just out 0:09:57.120 --> 0:10:00.440 of your rhythm because you didn't play for X amount days. 0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:02.520 It's hard to tell which one is which, But I 0:10:02.600 --> 0:10:04.360 kind of think that's what was going on with India. 0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:07.199 Had happened to ti Oscar earlier in the season as well, 0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:09.439 and now he's been crushing it. It was like it's 0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:11.120 like three weeks after he came back and then he 0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:13.079 started crushing, and I believe the same thing is going 0:10:13.120 --> 0:10:15.840 on here with India. So happy to see him hitting again, 0:10:15.920 --> 0:10:18.160 and it's all like if you're a Reds fan, it's 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:21.280 always so much fun to see a player hit their 0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:23.800 first career Grand Slam. You know, per Domo for the 0:10:23.880 --> 0:10:26.559 d Backs first homer was a Grand Slam. I remember 0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:30.040 Justin Upton's first Grand Slam as a Diamondback. Welsh was 0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:32.920 against the Dodgers and we choked the lead away and lost, 0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:36.040 and I remember being very angry about it. So there 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:36.199 you go. 0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:39.040 Looking over at India too, it's been fastballs that have 0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:41.360 destroyed him this year. Last year he hit three to 0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:44.120 oh one against fastballs, but he had an XBA of 0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:47.120 two seventy eight. So again you can see an obvious decline, 0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:50.200 like playing over his head down to two fifteen two 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:54.080 fifteen versus fastballs. This year he's hitting breaking pitches better. 0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:56.840 Off speed is still kind of you know, the crap 0:10:56.880 --> 0:10:58.839 hole that he's going to be dealing with. But two 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:03.240 fifteen to three zero one, huge, huge differential, and Berreling 0:11:03.280 --> 0:11:05.800 has been an issue. It's cut in half from last year. 0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:09.160 Ex velocity, way down. His average you know you want 0:11:09.160 --> 0:11:11.640 to be careful about like average TVs and stuff, eighty 0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:14.720 four point five. It was eighty seven point six last year. 0:11:15.120 --> 0:11:18.559 So there's obviously you can't go and look at like 0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:21.040 the entirety of the season, because it's starting to piece 0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:24.599 itself into different seasons. But I think this is like 0:11:24.640 --> 0:11:26.800 a really good by time on Jonathan India. You know, 0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:29.319 a couple of the guys, the Fantasy pros, guys I 0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:32.079 Seewonkee and looks like Mayor both mentioned the head and 0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:34.800 let go of India. I would not be letting go 0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:37.160 of India. But you've seen him be let go. You 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:40.440 see people want to rid themselves of India, and if 0:11:40.480 --> 0:11:43.040 the cost is nice and cheap, I think it's not 0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:45.520 a bad time. So it's nice to see that happen. 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.199 And bagman, he will never go away. He is the 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:50.920 roach of Major League Baseball. Just had to put this 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:53.840 in here. Dallas Kikol is back and he's signed a deal, 0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:56.439 minor league deal with the Rangers and this would be 0:11:56.559 --> 0:11:57.920 his third team this year. 0:11:58.200 --> 0:12:00.240 Yeah, as long as he's not in Arizona, that's all 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:04.000 I care about. So you know, look, I understand keeping 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:06.800 the dream alive and everything, but at home for Dallas, 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:10.439 kaykle Is, Kelly Nash, go home, Bud. I mean, come on, 0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:11.360 what are you doing? 0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:13.640 You know, send him off, Just send him off like 0:12:13.880 --> 0:12:15.359 it'll be okay, Dallas. 0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:17.880 It's gonna be fine. You did a great job. You 0:12:18.000 --> 0:12:20.440 worked real hard. I mean he was. He was awesome 0:12:20.520 --> 0:12:21.439 for a big stretch. 0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:23.360 You know what they should do I haven't. I got 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:25.640 a great idea for the All Star Game. They should 0:12:25.720 --> 0:12:28.800 do like an elimination match in wrestling. Our buddy Joe 0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:30.559 is gone today. I forgot to mention that at the 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:34.319 top Joe was out seeing WWE and I think he 0:12:34.440 --> 0:12:35.959 was in New York, so he just didn't make it 0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.120 back in time. He'll tell us all about it tomorrow. 0:12:38.240 --> 0:12:40.520 But they should do at the All Star Game an 0:12:40.600 --> 0:12:45.120 elimination pitch match, and it's Patrick Corbyn versus Dallas Kiko 0:12:45.200 --> 0:12:48.480 and a hitch off and the one loser retires match 0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:51.559 los loser loser leaves losers out. So it's a like 0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:53.760 I said, it's a literal like a it's a career 0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:56.240 retirement match, and they just do that. Wouldn't that be great? 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:59.040 Wouldn't it be awesome? Like two worst pitchers in baseball, 0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:01.000 it's a pitch off to see who's going to get 0:13:01.040 --> 0:13:02.000 kicked out of there forever. 0:13:02.559 --> 0:13:04.920 I mean, we say that, but one of them has 0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:07.120 been in the Major leagues in the same team all 0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:09.400 year and the other guy has been on three teams. 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:12.840 I you know, well that Patrick Corbyn is definitely going 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:15.120 to win. But Patrick Corbin is definitely gonna win. 0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:16.880 That's I think that would be a great but you 0:13:16.920 --> 0:13:19.160 know what, then let's build the legend. You also build 0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:21.800 the legend of what would then be the worst pitcher 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:24.679 in baseball. You build the legend because they beat the 0:13:24.760 --> 0:13:26.400 other guy. I think it's a great move. I think 0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:28.120 it's that's one of my cures. 0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:31.959 To uh that both worst pitchers in baseball had to 0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:34.840 be involved with the Diamondbacks at some point. Just that's 0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:35.480 the way it is. 0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:36.840 So yeah, yeah, exactly. 0:13:37.480 --> 0:13:39.040 And Dallas wister. 0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:41.440 Buster said, or have Kyle and Corbyn just pitch regularly 0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:45.520 for the home run derby, you know, you know, yeah, 0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:48.360 very very good idea. A couple of injuries. Chris Bryant 0:13:48.440 --> 0:13:51.839 is going to visit a specialist today in Denver. He 0:13:52.000 --> 0:13:54.280 was not in the lineup because of some sore foot 0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:55.040 seats he had. 0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:58.679 Finally starting to come back. I think he fouled them 0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:01.600 off his foot or something like. He was finally starting 0:14:01.679 --> 0:14:04.319 to hit again and drop some bombs and stuff and 0:14:04.440 --> 0:14:08.000 it's gone avantage, of course, and it's gone moved back line. 0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:09.720 No more Chris Brian here, goodbye. 0:14:10.280 --> 0:14:13.640 Nope, I'm really really getting over it the whole like 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:16.600 injury first half, not being able to hit in cores, 0:14:16.679 --> 0:14:18.680 not hitting homers. Then you start to pick it up, 0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:22.000 and then more injuries rampants at thirty. I'll tell you man, 0:14:22.200 --> 0:14:24.720 as someone that has experienced a couple of those different 0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:27.200 markers of like you go from your twenties to your thirties, 0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:29.080 and you hit your mid thirties and then you're going 0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:32.320 to close to pushing your forties. Brian's not doing well 0:14:32.360 --> 0:14:35.160 with that transition from thirty twenties to thirties because it 0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:37.560 has been a rough rough go this year and I'm 0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:41.560 relatively out and speaking about Mackenzie Gore was removed from 0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:44.720 his start on Monday or his relief appearance on Monday 0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:48.360 versus the Tigers with left elbow soreness. 0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:53.280 I probably should have went ahead and let him not 0:14:53.560 --> 0:15:00.640 start while you're trying to acquire Juan Soto, but okay, sucks, 0:15:01.280 --> 0:15:01.600 you know what. 0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:04.880 That actually leads us to a very very interesting question 0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:09.840 with Mackenzie Gore where he's tied Jim Bowden, So can 0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:12.720 we talk about this tweet? Bogs. We all know the 0:15:13.160 --> 0:15:15.000 Wan Soto stuff is out there. We all know the 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:18.360 Wan soda trade rumors. Everyone's talking about it. I saw 0:15:18.440 --> 0:15:21.960 this tweet and I was fascinated. Jim Boden tweets, the 0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:26.320 Wan Soto trade market is like the present housing market. 0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:28.040 I mean, what a way to get I bet this. 0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:30.800 Everything is way too expensive. I bet this. 0:15:31.240 --> 0:15:35.720 Everybody else are incredible. So he says it's like the 0:15:35.800 --> 0:15:38.680 present housing market. The nationals are not only going to 0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:43.360 get their asking price, but might even get more. Interest 0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:47.440 is from all market sizes and is robust. Here's the 0:15:47.480 --> 0:15:51.560 one that really stood out. Expect the biggest hall in 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:55.240 MLB history. And he said there is no front runner 0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:58.720 as of this morning. And this tweet was I think today. 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:01.320 I think it was this morning here. So there's a 0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:03.840 couple of things I would love to know. First off, 0:16:04.680 --> 0:16:08.440 can you recall what was the biggest trade in MLB history? So, like, 0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:10.160 if we're saying this will be the biggest hall, what 0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:12.280 would you say the biggest trade is? Does anything come 0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:13.480 to mind? Uh? 0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:16.280 There have been so many trades, dude, I just can't 0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:19.840 think of one that was unbelievable. I remember I remember 0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:23.280 the Braves getting a lot for uh to share or 0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:24.960 the Rangers getting a lot for to share it from 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:30.920 the Braves. I remember the d Backs gave everything in 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:33.240 the world up for Richie Sexton. 0:16:33.320 --> 0:16:37.720 Who okay, let me, I mean that wasn't incredible. They 0:16:37.720 --> 0:16:39.400 didn't really give up a whole bunch, but they gave 0:16:39.480 --> 0:16:42.480 up like counting a lot of players, seven players I 0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:42.920 think it was. 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:45.200 It wasn't like top end prospects. I don't think so. 0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:47.880 No, So okay, So let me ask this, then, is 0:16:48.000 --> 0:16:51.000 the biggest haul dictated by the name of the player 0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:54.760 or the sheer amount of players that probably qualify as 0:16:54.800 --> 0:16:55.440 being like decent. 0:16:55.680 --> 0:16:59.040 It's the name. It's always the names, Like it's the 0:16:59.080 --> 0:17:01.880 bigger the names, and you know, when you trade big 0:17:02.000 --> 0:17:05.640 leaguers in a deal plus top end minor leaguers, that's 0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:08.600 the type of hall that we know that the Nationals 0:17:08.640 --> 0:17:11.359 are looking for here, and that that's something to me. 0:17:11.560 --> 0:17:15.600 It's always the names and not the you know, value 0:17:15.720 --> 0:17:17.000 over volume for sure. 0:17:17.400 --> 0:17:20.399 I'm really curious of what people think the number one is. 0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:22.320 If anyone in the chat has it drop it, I'd 0:17:22.320 --> 0:17:25.000 be curious because I kind of struggled with like, Okay, 0:17:25.480 --> 0:17:27.879 if we are going to dictate this as the biggest 0:17:27.960 --> 0:17:30.280 haul in history, because that's the word. 0:17:30.160 --> 0:17:34.160 Here, it's g a ton for Randy, I remember that deal. 0:17:34.400 --> 0:17:38.000 The biggest hall, so again that that is not referring 0:17:38.040 --> 0:17:39.440 to like, hey, this would be the biggest trade ever 0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:42.040 because hey, Wan Soda is involved this. No, the biggest 0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:45.480 haul in the history of baseball is the idea for 0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:49.239 what I think probably deserves it to be. So if 0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:51.480 anybody has one, drop it. But I'll ask you, bogs, 0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:54.920 there is no front runner. Of course, that's the term 0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:56.760 right now that they're saying there's no front all the 0:17:56.840 --> 0:18:00.800 different markets we've seen everybody jump in. Let me ask 0:18:00.840 --> 0:18:04.159 you to give me. Let's start with the Cardinals. Let 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:06.800 me just do two teams. What does the biggest haul 0:18:06.960 --> 0:18:09.840 in the history of the MLB trade market look like? 0:18:10.359 --> 0:18:13.240 For the Cardinals team if they were to acquire one Soda. 0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:15.320 I mean, I think it has to be two big leaguers, 0:18:15.480 --> 0:18:19.320 you know, like Tyler O'Neill, Dylan Carlson, and then their 0:18:19.400 --> 0:18:23.600 top prospect Jordan Walker and Matt Libator and probably other 0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:24.800 pieces as well. 0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:27.159 It have to that's the biggest trade though if that, 0:18:27.280 --> 0:18:28.840 if it goes down, do you think like we're gonna 0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:31.000 go back and we're gonna like for one player? 0:18:31.640 --> 0:18:34.280 Will really too because if you trade for Soda, you 0:18:34.400 --> 0:18:37.159 have to trade Patrick Corbin, you have to take Patrick 0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:41.120 Corbin's contract as well. I think for one to get 0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:44.240 one guy that would be I mean, it has to 0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:47.000 be close. You know, you talk about two major leagues 0:18:47.040 --> 0:18:51.240
