1
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: Good evening, Ladies and gentlemen, welcome the most territory brought

2
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 1: to about the foul Territory Network. Tough night here for

3
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 1: the Red Sox in Game one. The offense remains cold,

4
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:23,960
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, and anytime they give up the first

5
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: run is usually not a good sign for the Red Sox.

6
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: They're now eighteen and thirty five when they give up

7
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 1: the first run. This offense has been completely cold since

8
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: the All Star Break. You know, we saw the offense

9
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 1: come alive a couple of times against the Cubs and

10
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: the Phillies, but overall minus tonight coming into tonight since

11
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: the All Star break, twenty ninth in offense overall, which

12
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,520
Speaker 1: is both the bats and the base running, twenty ninth

13
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: in WRC plus and twenty ninth in ops. The Red Sox, remember,

14
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: they were clicking here going into the All Star break,

15
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: and they gotta find that same mojo again. We'll see,

16
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: we'll see. But a tough one here against the Dodgers.

17
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: I mean, we all know how good this team is.

18
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: The defending World Series champions, still a great looking team here.

19
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty five. They were my pick to win

20
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: the World Series this year. To be the first team

21
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 1: to go back to back since the Yankees in the

22
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,919
Speaker 1: three peat with the Yankees, so it hasn't been done since.

23
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: But I think this Dodgers team absolutely has the talent

24
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,320
Speaker 1: to be able to do so. It's a very good team.

25
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: They've had a lot of injuries this year, but and

26
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: I know they've had their struggles a little over the

27
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: past month or whatever it is. But this Dodgers team, man,

28
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: they're no joke. They're no joking. They showed you here tonight.

29
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,119
Speaker 1: The offense, like I said, remaining cold. They had multiple

30
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: chances here tonight. Eight strikeouts, only five hits, only one

31
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: for nine with runners in scoring position. Tip of the

32
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: cap to em she In here tonight. He really held

33
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: it down. He got into a little bit of trouble there.

34
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: The Red Sox were threat at one point, but the

35
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: guy just completely turned around his game. He did very

36
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: well for the Dodgers here tonight. And the bullpen for

37
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: the Dodgers, they got a lot of good arms back there.

38
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it was a tight game really for the

39
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 1: most part. The Red Sox were hanging tough, but you know,

40
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: the bullpen they couldn't really hold it down. You know,

41
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: shout out to Murphy here tonight. He looked very solid,

42
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,839
Speaker 1: very good outing for him tonight. I feel like he's

43
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: been one of these underrated guys for the Red Sox

44
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 1: this year. He looked great tonight, striking out show. Heyo Tani.

45
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: But Brian Bail, you know Bao. We've had a few

46
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: of these starts with Bao where he bends, but he

47
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: doesn't break. He gets the job done, and you know what,

48
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give him a good tip of the cap

49
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 1: as well. We all know, like I said, how this

50
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 1: Dodgers team is. We know the talent they have, we

51
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: know the bats they have in this lineup, and Bao,

52
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: despite struggling with a bit of command tonight, was able

53
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 1: I think, to turn in a pretty decent performance overall.

54
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: You could tell he didn't fully have his command on

55
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: the night here, but he figured it out enough and

56
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: he gave the Red Sox a chance to be in

57
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: this one here tonight. But unfortunately the bullpen We'll get

58
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: to that a little bit, but they weren't able to

59
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: hold it down there and the Red Sox just weren't

60
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: able to come through. Like I said, but I do

61
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 1: have a couple of shoutouts here. Bregman had a pretty

62
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,839
Speaker 1: solid night. You know, he had that you know, good

63
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: moment in Chicago at Wrigley, you know, big home run

64
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: there for the Red Sox late in the game. Had

65
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: a double here tonight. You know, outside of you know those,

66
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: maybe a couple of hits here and there. Bregman's still

67
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: fully trying to find his way, so I think that

68
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: could be a good sign here moving forward. Had a

69
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: couple of nice plays in the field as well. Shout

70
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: out Connor Wong first EXCU base hit on the year.

71
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: Was it miror was Connor Wong hitting the ball kind

72
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: of hard here tonight. I don't know. Something looked a

73
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: little different with Connor Wong, even the outs. You know,

74
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: I'm thinking it kind of turned my head a little bit.

75
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: Jared Duran, pretty decent night for him overall. He had

76
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: a run scored there on the break, been double. No

77
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: good read off the monster, very high fly ball there,

78
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: and you know, you weren't quite sure, you know, if

79
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: that was gonna be a catchable ball. But Duran, hey,

80
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: pretty good job for him on the bass pass. Had

81
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: to walk tonight as well. Unfortunately, we do have some

82
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: tough news Marcelo Meyer going on the IL. There was

83
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 1: a picture of him today. I'm not sure where he

84
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 1: was was. I don't know if it was like some

85
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: kind of like a rehab clinic or some kind of

86
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: one of those like what do you call it, not

87
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: not a rehab like. I don't know if it was

88
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 1: like a physical therapy place or some kind of a

89
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 1: I believe it's one of those spas where you can

90
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: get like vitamins and stuff. I forget the name of

91
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 1: them exactly. They have a couple nearer around me. I

92
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: always see pictures of like WWE wrestlers going to these

93
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 1: places where they hook you up on like an IV

94
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 1: and they're like pumping you with vitamins. I forget the name.

95
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: I think that's what it was. I could be wrong anyway,

96
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 1: But he had a little, uh what do you call it,

97
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: like a brace on his wrist. He's going on the

98
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,919
Speaker 1: al with a wrist sprain. They are calling back up

99
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 1: David Hamilton. People were questioning that because Hamilton has had

100
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: his struggles this year. People are wondering, you know, where's

101
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: von Grissom, where's so guard? You know? I think it's

102
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: a I think it's a conversation right to me, I

103
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 1: think they just wanted to have the lefty bat Hamilton.

104
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 1: It's a guy that Cora he just I don't know,

105
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: he likes Hamilton a lot. With Hamilton, I don't know.

106
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: Let's see if can get the bat turned around. It

107
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,840
Speaker 1: has not been very good with him this year, but

108
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: you know, with him, he's gonna give you, you know,

109
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 1: some decent speed out there. Right, He's just a guy

110
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: that Cora likes. The intangibles I think with him, I

111
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: don't know, it is what it is. I was maybe

112
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,239
Speaker 1: thinking we could have seen von Grissom get a chance.

113
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: But I mean now that Grissom, even with this injury,

114
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 1: that you're not seeing him getting called up. I mean,

115
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: are we ever going to see von Grissom. I'm kind

116
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: of starting to think maybe not. And that kind of

117
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: makes me wonder if maybe the Red Sox just don't

118
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: want to expose him because he is putting up some

119
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: decent numbers in the minor leagues. Maybe they're trying to

120
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: save him for possibly like maybe a possible trade. I'm

121
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: not sure. Just interesting. I thought maybe this could have

122
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: been a chance for him to come back up. Anyway.

123
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: But speaking of trades. We got some trade rumors to

124
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: talk about tonight, ladies and gentlemen. We are getting closer

125
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: here to the deadline this coming Thursday, less than a

126
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: week away. We already had some moves happening here yesterday

127
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 1: and here today with the Yankees. The Yankees getting the

128
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: third baseman, Ryan McMahon, I'm thinking they were gonna get

129
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 1: Euhinio Suarez. Well that's not gonna be happening now. So

130
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: where's Euhenio Suarez gonna be going? I don't know. But

131
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 1: we also saw Josh Naylor going to the Seattle Mariners.

132
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 1: That was a guy that was on the lists of

133
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: a lot of Red Sox fans out there. So could

134
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: there be a next man up, another possible option to

135
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: grab a left handed hitting first baseman. We'll see, we'll see,

136
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that. A bit of a surprise name

137
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 1: coming up here today, Dalton Rushing from the Dodgers. I'm

138
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: gonna give you my thoughts on that. And there was

139
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 1: reportedly a trade that the Red Sox rejected from the

140
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: prodres aj Pereler still trying everything he can to go

141
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: get himself jaroned ran and looks like there was an

142
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: offer on the table and Craig Breslo turned it down.

143
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 1: So we'll dive into that tonight as well. Everybody, if

146
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: maybe we can get to fifty. I'm not so sure.

147
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: It's a Friday night. It's a loss here tonight. I'm

148
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: not sure what the live crowd is gonna be looking

149
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: like here tonight. But if you can help us out

151
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,360

152
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: Brian Bayo. Let's start off with Brian Bayo. Now again,

153
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: like I said, you know, another night where he definitely bent,

154
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: but he didn't break. He kept the team in the

155
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: game tonight. I mean, hey, first bat of the game,

156
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: striking out show, Hey Otani, he got off to a

157
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: great start, struck him out of a change up, but

158
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 1: he had trouble finding the zone here tonight. You could

159
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: tell the command was a bit off forty six percent

160
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: zone percentage tonight, so he was kind of in and

161
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 1: out of the zone. I mean, I don't know if

162
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 1: that was a lack of command or just trying to

163
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: keep away from these Dodgers hitters. Maybe a little bit

164
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: of both, I don't know. But he was leading with

165
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: the sinker and the sweeper for the most part. He

166
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: mixed in some cutters, some four steamers. The change ups,

167
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: now the spin rates were down, but his change up

168
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 1: was moving well. We continue to see the change up

169
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,199
Speaker 1: looking pretty decent with Brian Bao. He was getting a

170
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: decent amount of wifs tonight. His season average on with

171
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: percentage is right around nineteen percent, but he was at

172
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 1: twenty five percent tonight, so he was getting a couple

173
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 1: more swing and misses here tonight. The second and the

174
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: third inning, that's where all the trouble was. In the

175
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: second inning, Pa Haz had the double left exchange up

176
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,079
Speaker 1: just a bit too high. Pahz, He's been having in

177
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 1: a very good year this year. Conforto, he moved him

178
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: over to third base. Tommy Edmund had the blue bass

179
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: hit that scored him, made it one nothing. And the

180
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: third inning he really ran into some trouble here. Back

181
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: to back to back hits from Otani Smith Freeman. He

182
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 1: walked Hey Oscar where the bases loaded that made it

183
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: to nothing. Poez with the sackfly. But what I can

184
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: appreciate again not breaking. He was able to limit the

185
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: damage here. He didn't let them get the big hit.

186
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: Had the three base hits in a row, but he

187
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: didn't give up the big one, so I can give

188
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 1: him credit for that. Ended up sitting down the last

189
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 1: seven of his ended up sitting down seven of his

190
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 1: last nine hitters here tonight. It overalled, you know, not

191
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: a bad knife five and a third, six hits, three

192
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: earned five k's, two walks. Not bad. It's not a

193
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: bad knight. Unfortunately, the offense just couldn't really pick him

194
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: up here the bullpen. They ended up breaking, giving up

195
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: the big hit. Later on, also shout out Trevor's story.

196
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: Whatever story, nice play during bos outing here tonight made

197
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: another Derek Jeter like play. Trevor story. I was big

198
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: on him coming into the year, and he's exactly kind

199
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: of what I was hoping he would be and kind

200
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: of what I thought he would be if he just

201
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: stayed healthy. Just a guy that's doing a lot of

202
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: good things, you know, not a superstar by any means,

203
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: but just doing a solid job here. But then the bullpen,

204
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 1: bullpen came in. Like I said, Chris Murphy, shout out

205
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: to him. He was pretty solid here. He came in

206
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: for the sixth. They brought him in against the LEFTI

207
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: confour too. I ended up closing out the sixth inning,

208
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 1: had a one two three seventh. His breaking stuff was

209
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,199
Speaker 1: looking great here tonight. The spin rates were up. He

210
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: ended getting three strikeouts overall. He struck out Otani and

211
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: Smith to end the seventh. Again Chris Murphy solid out

212
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: of this bullpen. But then the eighth inning, this is

213
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 1: where I started to unravel. Murphy giving up the base

214
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: at the freeman. They kept him out there to go

215
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: up against the lefty. Didn't work out. And this is

216
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 1: where I was a little I wasn't sure about this

217
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 1: pitching change. Right They brought in Joory Alkala to face

218
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: tay Oscar, bringing the righty righty matchup. But this is

219
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: where and I know I've had my issues with Greg

220
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: Weiser this year. He's been a roller coaster, but this

221
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: is where I would have liked him in this spot

222
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: where a guy that's sure he's had his moments where

223
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: hasn't looked amazing right, and he's he's really labored espout,

224
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: you know, going how many times are they just throwing

225
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 1: Greg Weiser out there? But I feel like in this situation,

226
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,560
Speaker 1: come at him with a bit of a different look,

227
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 1: try to keep the game close. And uh, I don't know.

228
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,679
Speaker 1: I just I wasn't really a fan of Alcala coming

229
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:48,079
Speaker 1: in this one. I think Weisser would have been better

230
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: in this situation. I mean, I think you could have

231
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,960
Speaker 1: even made the argument for Whitlock. It's a close game. Alkala,

232
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, He's just Alkala's definitely had some decent

233
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 1: moments here over the last couple of weeks, but he's

234
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: had a couple of moments too where you know, he's

235
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: given up some hits, giving up some runs. So I

236
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 1: don't know. I like Alkalo. I don't know. In a

237
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: three two game, I know you're down at that point,

238
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 1: but I'm okay with Alkoho coming in when you have

239
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: a bit of a bigger lead, or you're you're a

240
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: bit further behind as well. Three to two game, I'd

241
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 1: still like to be putting a guy like Weisser or

242
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 1: Whitlock in that situation. That's just me, though. What a

243
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 1: Lino what Ano in the anti Oscar hitting the two

244
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: run homer that might have five to two dead center.

245
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: I thought Duran was maybe gonna have a chance at it. Duran,

246
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: you know, I got nothing with Duran out in center field.

247
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 1: I just wonder would Seti have, you know, tried to

248
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: make some kind of an attempt. I don't think anyone

249
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: was gonna get it. But anyway, but also that too,

250
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 1: Seti playing second base here tonight. Alex core has said

251
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 1: that you're gonna be seeing a lot of Seti over

252
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,439
Speaker 1: at second base. That sparks some conversation here today where

253
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 1: it's kind of one of those things, Man, I get it,

254
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 1: trust me. I want Seti out in center field. Obviously,

255
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: that's where he plays best, and he's had a ton

256
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,680
Speaker 1: of success. He's one of the best defensive not just

257
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 1: best defensive center fielders in the game, but just one

258
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: of the best defensive players in all of Major League Baseball. Yeah,

259
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: I want him out in center field, So him at

260
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 1: second base. I'm fine with it. But it's like, you know,

261
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: I get it, guys are gonna get hurt. Versatility is important,

262
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: but you know, this is kind of where you know

263
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 1: I want. I want Seti out in center field. I

264
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: think that's just your best team out there. Yeah, I

265
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 1: get it though, I understand it. Now moving on from

266
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: the pitching here again, getting back to this offense, they

267
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 1: just continue to remain cold. They just couldn't lay down

268
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: the hammer against Shean first inning, Duran Roman with the

269
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: walk starting to just put some pressure on him early,

270
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 1: then Story Massa striking out Massa. He's been a little

271
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 1: cold as of Remember he came back, you know against

272
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 1: the Rockies looking pretty solid. I feel like he just

273
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: hasn't really been able to do all that much as

274
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: of late. You know, I don't know. I do wonder, man.

275
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:11,439
Speaker 1: I've said on the record many times it's gonna be

276
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: very difficult to be able to trade him. I don't know. Man,

277
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 1: Like the Red Sox, they keep talking about how it's

278
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: good to have a surplus, and they keep talking about

279
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: the importance of it and how it's a good thing

280
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: to have. I don't know. It's I just wonder, you know,

281
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: do they just end up deafang Masa? You know what

282
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 1: I mean? I don't know. I mean, let me actually

283
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: pull up his numbers here. I mean, he's been just

284
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: a little cold. Let me go to the numbers. I mean, yeah,

285
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: over his last seven games, he's only hitting one sixty seven. Yeah,

286
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: he look good against the Rockies, but he just hasn't

287
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: really been able to do anything. So that's where I wonder.

288
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: You know, if the Red Sox want to keep all

289
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 1: their outfielders and use DH to rotate them all in

290
00:14:54,600 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: and out, could you see something happen with Masa? I

291
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, could a team possibly step up?

292
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: And I mean, no matter what, you're gonna have to

293
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 1: eat the contract, you're gonna have to do something with it.

294
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 1: But I don't know. Could a team out there maybe

295
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 1: be looking, you know, look for a bat possibly. I

296
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: don't know, but Masa I do wonder here as we're

297
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 1: getting closer to the deadline. I mean, I don't know.

298
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 1: If he stays cold like this, He's got four hits

299
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: in his last twenty four abs, struck out five times,

300
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 1: hasn't even walked. Makes me wonder if the Red Sox

301
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: maybe do something there. Thirdening, Connor Wong with the double,

302
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 1: Connor freaking Wong? How about it? Uh? Duram the base hit?

303
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: They made a three to one, bregnant with a double.

304
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: Like I mentioned earlier, they made a three to two.

305
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 1: You had no outs at this point, so you're thinking,

306
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: all right, the Red Sox are cooking, all right, the

307
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: Red Sox are back, but they couldn't come through here

308
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: in this inning. Roman with a lot the line out story,

309
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 1: with the pop out, Masa again popping out in that spot, man,

310
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 1: you got to move these runners over, and that's where

311
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: you know, Masa, like even I just feel like he's

312
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: he's a guy, even if he's not gonna be picking

313
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 1: up the hits, a guy that can have productive abs,

314
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 1: you know, just not able to move these runners over,

315
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: just not really able to do anything here. It's been

316
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: a couple of times now over the last several games

317
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: where you know, you had a guy over at second

318
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 1: and you know, instead of instead of pulling it to

319
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: the right side, you know, on a ground out, I

320
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 1: mean you're you're you're going over to third base with this,

321
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: so the runner has to say a second base where

322
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: you know, that's where I'm like, all right, Masa, Like,

323
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, at least at least move the

324
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 1: runner over right in that spot, right, I mean, that

325
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 1: was that was the third out. I'm just saying, I

326
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 1: don't know, man, Masa. I wonder she and tip of

327
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: the cap once again sitting down the last nine batters.

328
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 1: After the Brugman double, he struck out the side in

329
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: the fourth inning. Five innings, two earned overall. Sixth inning,

330
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: Anthony Bandit came in. Masa did have the base hit,

331
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 1: but that was it. Seventh inning. You did have a

332
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: couple of pink appearances Roamy for Willier and then a

333
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 1: ref snyder for Toro. Weren't able to do anything. You know,

334
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 1: you had a you know, a little something there cooking

335
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: in the ninth, but you just weren't able to get

336
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,479
Speaker 1: anything done. Man, there's a very good Dodgers team, and

337
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 1: it's gonna be This is a good team, right, It's

338
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: gonna be hard to break through against this team. I mean,

339
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: a good job for the Red Sox keeping it close tonight,

340
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 1: but you know, he close, but no cigar, right, So

341
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: we'll see how it goes here in Game two. We

342
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 1: will be doing the game to preview here in a second,

343
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: but we do have our Draft Kings Player spotlight tonight.

344
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about Game two here and I'm gonna

345
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: give you the guy that I got my eye on

346
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:54,439
Speaker 1: for tomorrow. Welcome to the Draft Kings Players Spotlight. We're

347
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: gonna focus on Game two four tomorrow, we got Garrett

348
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:00,719
Speaker 1: Crochet going up against Clayton Kershaw. What a You got

349
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 1: a future Hall of Fame lefty in Clayton Kershaw going

350
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,160
Speaker 1: up against one of the top arms in the game

351
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,880
Speaker 1: today in Garrett Crochet. My goodness, that is absolute cinema.

352
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: Now Here on DraftKings, they're given the Red Sox a

353
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,120
Speaker 1: minus one thirty seven odds on the money line, while

354
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: they giving the dogs ers a plus one twelve. Now,

355
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: the player that I'm gonna be focusing on here is

356
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,879
Speaker 1: mister Alex Bregman. Now, remember before he went down with

357
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,399
Speaker 1: the quad injury, he was putting up some of the

358
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 1: best numbers in all of Major League Baseball overall, coming

359
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,159
Speaker 1: into tonight hitting two ninety with a three to sixty

360
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 1: eight on base a five point thirty one on the

361
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,880
Speaker 1: slugging a one to forty five WRC, plus twelve homers,

362
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 1: a two point two fangraft wins above replacement overall. The

363
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: Red Sox need to sign this guy to a long

364
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 1: term extinction. They need to make him the face of

365
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 1: the franchise. Mister Craig Breslo, please get this done now.

366
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 1: With Bregman. Since coming back from his quad injury. It

367
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: has taken him a little time to get readjusted. Here

368
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 1: did have a big home run against the Cubs not

369
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 1: too long ago at Wrigley Field, but overall in the

370
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,199
Speaker 1: nine games since coming back, hitting two twenty two with

371
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 1: a three seventy on the slow. Now against Clayton Kershaw,

372
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: funny enough, only three AB's, but the one hit he

373
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 1: has is a home run. And Bregman remember he hit

374
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 1: a double tonight against the Dodgers here in Game one,

375
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,440
Speaker 1: so I'm thinking Bregman could be starting to get himself

376
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: into a groove. And the one hit he has against

377
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,679
Speaker 1: Kershaw is a home run. So I'm gonna bet that

378
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 1: Bregman is gonna go yard in this one tomorrow. Now.

379
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: No disrespect to Clayton Kershaw, he's been solid this year.

380
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 1: Eleven starts eight at three point twenty seven. Fit it

381
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,880
Speaker 1: a four point one five. But when taking a look

382
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 1: at the metrics here, he's giving up a lot of

383
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: eggs of v low, not really getting a whole lot

384
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: of guys to chase, not really getting a whole lot

385
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,959
Speaker 1: of swing and misses. So I think this is a

386
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: great opportunity for Bregman to do some damage again. I'm

387
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 1: gonna go with Bregman going yard off of Kershaw tomorrow.

388
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,440
Speaker 1: Let's see how I do. But go test it out

Speaker 1: Alrighty, let's get to the updated standings here. How about

406
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 1: Nick Kurtz I think Nick Kertz just hit his fourth

407
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,640
Speaker 1: home run as we speak. I was telling everybody coming

408
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,640
Speaker 1: out of that draft last year, look out for Kurtz.

409
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 1: He reminded me of Jason fricking Giambi, right, I mean,

410
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 1: might get a guys guy just such great plate discipline,

411
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,159
Speaker 1: huge frame, big power. Holy cow, what a night for

412
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:19,360
Speaker 1: Nick Kurtz's For the Red Sox, I mean, listen, they're

413
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,360
Speaker 1: getting bailed out here right. They've been having a few

414
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 1: losses against the Cubbies, the Phillies right dropping Game one

415
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,159
Speaker 1: to the Dodgers here. But here they are still in

416
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 1: the third wild card spot. The Yankees losing again today.

417
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: But look out for the Texas Rangers. They are playing

418
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 1: the Braves as we speak, and they are winning right now.

419
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,159
Speaker 1: So it looks like the Rangers by the end of

420
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: the night they are gonna be a half game behind.

421
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: This is a Rangers team I was very high on

422
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,439
Speaker 1: coming into the year, a lot of talent. That's a

423
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 1: team that I think could definitely go on a second

424
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 1: half run. So the Red Sox, they're really gonna have

425
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: to pick up the pace here. They're gonna have to

426
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: start putting some wins together here to hold off a

427
00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,239
Speaker 1: tough team like that. You know, seeing goes to the

428
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 1: Mariners as well. Right this Rangers, they're dangerous, right the Rays.

429
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 1: They dropped another one here tonight. They're a game and

430
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 1: a half out. So bought the Red Sox despite all

431
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: the losses here lately, they are hanging tough, but they

432
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,879
Speaker 1: gotta start stringing some wins together. Now getting back here

433
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 1: to the Maxshup. I already talked about mister Clayton Kershaw.

434
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 1: I am very big on Alex Bregman for this one

435
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:28,679
Speaker 1: here tomorrow. But great Garrett Crochet. He's been looking solid

436
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 1: over the last few starts here well, very hittable against

437
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: the Cubs, eight hits allowed, only give up one run

438
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,159
Speaker 1: though through the six innings. Very good against Tampa a

439
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 1: couple of starts ago, first complete game and then our

440
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: complete game shutout. So Garrett Crochet, you know this is

441
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,360
Speaker 1: a guy that we can always count on. I'm very

442
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 1: intrigued to see what he can do against this Dodger's lineup.

443
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: I'm excited to see Garrett Crochet show. Hey, o Tani,

444
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a blockbuster Maxshup. Now getting back here

445
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: to the Macshup. We already talked about Ragman how he

446
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: has a home run against Kershaw. But also keep in

447
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: mind Trevor Story, he has seen a lot of Clayton

448
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,159
Speaker 1: Kershaw on his career, all of those years with the

449
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 1: Colorado Rockies, twenty three abs and has had a lot

450
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: of success against Kershaw three forty eight batting average lifetime

451
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: against him with an eight fifty three ops. I mean, listen,

452
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,919
Speaker 1: if on DraftKings, if you maybe you wanted to, you know,

453
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 1: go slap down a bet. Maybe Trevor Story, you could

454
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 1: have him maybe, or you could you could maybe place

455
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,440
Speaker 1: place a little bet on him having a very good night.

456
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 1: So we'll see azer, Garrett Crochet. You've had a few

457
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: guys see him, right, Freddy Freeman, he's got five AB's

458
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 1: got a got a hit or two against him. Paz

459
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: has had some success, so some of these guys have

460
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: seen him. Gonna be an interesting Max Shop. Now let's

461
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 1: move on here, let's move on. We got some rumors

462
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 1: to talk about, we got some trade deadline news to

463
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: talk about. But if you are with us on nesson,

464
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 1: we are just about to be out of time here

465
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: in just a couple of minutes. So if you want

466
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: to see the rest of the show. Coming over to YouTube,

467
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: go to Masa Territory and come see what I gotta

468
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 1: say about all the rumors that are floating around right now.

469
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: Like I said, we're less than a week away into

470
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,359
Speaker 1: the deadline, and the Red Sox they were in the

471
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: rumor mill quite a bit here today now again catching

472
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,600
Speaker 1: up on some of these trades that have happened in

473
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,679
Speaker 1: the last couple of days. Right the Yankees acquiring Ryan McMahon,

474
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,959
Speaker 1: that now takes them out of the Heino Suarez sweepstakes.

475
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 1: I was really thinking they're gonna be able to land him.

476
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 1: There was one rumor the other day, I believe it

477
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,439
Speaker 1: was from Hector Gomez saying the Yankees were looking to

478
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: grab Suarez and Merril Kelly. I'm gonna say this as well.

479
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: Speaking of Merril Kelly, little Birdie came through for me

480
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 1: again today, ladies and gentlemen. The Tigers, they are hot

481
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: for Merril Kelly right now. That is a guy that

482
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: I've penciled as a possible candidate for the Red Sox.

483
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 1: Maybe the Tigers they got some good prospects over there,

484
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,399
Speaker 1: and I could see that rotation. I mean, maybe they

485
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 1: could even do a package deal for Uhenio Suarez. They

486
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 1: could add one more bats somewhere there. He can move

487
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 1: some guys around. Who knows, but I was told that

488
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 1: today about Meryl Kelly. Lookout for the Tigers. You never

489
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 1: know how things are gonna go with the deadline, but

490
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: you know the Tigers are going to be out there

491
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,120
Speaker 1: picking up the phones trying to make some moves. Now

492
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: for the Yankees, Ryan McMahon, you know, he's a decent bat.

493
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 1: I do wonder how he does at Yankee Stadium. At

494
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: the very least, he's gonna give you some good defense

495
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 1: over there. He's a guy that you know a lot

496
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 1: of Yankee fans they have looked at him for a

497
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: while now. And you know, really the Yankees, they didn't

498
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 1: have to give up a whole lot because McMahon has

499
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 1: an underwater contract, which means that the money he's getting

500
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: paid is more than what his projections are worth over

501
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:04,119
Speaker 1: the next couple of years. So again they didn't have

502
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: to give up much, but they are taking on the contract,

503
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 1: so he's got a couple more years of control here. Overall,

504
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: I think it's an okay move for the Yankees. You know,

505
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: they sure up third base, that's been a hole for them.

506
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 1: So now for the Mariners, they acquired Josh Naylor, got

507
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:23,159
Speaker 1: a d Backs, got a couple of pitching prospects in

508
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 1: return for him. This is a guy that a lot

509
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,399
Speaker 1: of Red Sox fans had been looking at. Right, the

510
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: Red Sox could possibly be, you know, a team looking

511
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,439
Speaker 1: for an upgrade at first base and you know, getting

512
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,639
Speaker 1: back to Enio Suarez. I had a few people today

513
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 1: on Twitter saying, well, hey, why not the Red Sox

514
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: for Euhenio Suarez. Well, the reason is that you already

515
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,160
Speaker 1: have a right handed hitting first baseman in Rome Gonzalez.

516
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 1: I mean, he is absolutely proven he can handle left

517
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:53,640
Speaker 1: handed pitching, so you're really looking for a lefty guy.

518
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: So I don't see Suarez being a fit. I'm just

519
00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, I wouldn't hate it. I mean that

520
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 1: power at Family Park for crying out loud, that'd be amazing.

521
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,439
Speaker 1: But I don't think he's the guy the Red Sox

522
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 1: would go after. I saw some people saying, well why

523
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 1: not you know d H Well, I mean they got

524
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 1: to figure out what to do with all these outfielders Masa.

525
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know. I just don't see Suarez

526
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,160
Speaker 1: really being a fit. But I could see the Red

527
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 1: Sox going after a left handed first baseman. But now

528
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: that Naylor is off the board, I just wonder here,

529
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: you know, could the Red Sox maybe turn to someone

530
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 1: like Ryan O'Hearn I think it's possible. Right they have

531
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 1: been connected with him. There has been some reports out there,

532
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,880
Speaker 1: so we'll see. You know, A Hearne is in division,

533
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 1: he has the experience in the American League. He's has

534
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:42,120
Speaker 1: been pretty cold as of late. That is something where

535
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:43,959
Speaker 1: if you do look at the overall numbers, he just

536
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 1: was so hot in the first couple of months, but

537
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: he has cooled off a little bit. I do wonder

538
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 1: if that comes into play. But there was another possibility

539
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:59,959
Speaker 1: that popped up here today. Another possibility got Dalton Russia

540
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 1: popping up here for the Red Sox. I found this

541
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:08,640
Speaker 1: very interesting. Now I am gonna be accountable for myself.

542
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm always gonna admit when I was wrong

543
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 1: about something or if I wasn't thinking about something correctly.

544
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 1: But uh, what was it like? About a month ago,

545
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 1: I think Bleakser report. They came out with an article

546
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 1: the best fits for Jaron Duran or something like that,

547
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: and the Dodgers were mentioned there and uh, Dalton Rushing

548
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 1: was mentioned in their mock trade or whatever. And I

549
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 1: was saying at the time, like, I don't know, I

550
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:37,239
Speaker 1: don't really see a fit with Rushing because I don't know,

551
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 1: because I'm thinking you already had Carlos Nirvias. Dalton Rushing

552
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,880
Speaker 1: is a catcher, so I'm thinking like, eh, I don't

553
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 1: know about that. But now when you've been seeing narvas

554
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 1: over the last few weeks, you know, the guy, he's

555
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 1: in his first full season, probably feeling in the legs

556
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 1: a little bit. And uh, we know, sure Connor Wong

557
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 1: had a first execra base hit tonight. But you know,

558
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: I just wonder if the Red Sox, you know, they

559
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 1: appreciate the versatility, so I wonder with Rushing, if that's

560
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: a guy they could go after. He could be, you know,

561
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 1: mostly in the lineup pretty much every day at first base,

562
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 1: go up against right handed pitching, you know, and then

563
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: Romie can take care of the lefties, and a couple

564
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: of times a week Rushing can be the catcher, all right.

565
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: To give narvaias you know, a day off here and there.

566
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: Now you might be asking Robbie Well, Dalton Rushing. I mean, well,

567
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: first off, who's Dalton Rushing? Well, Dalton Rushing, the number

568
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: one prospect in the Dodgers system right now, still hasn't

569
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 1: fully graduated yet because he just hasn't been able to

570
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 1: get a full time role with the Dodgers at this point.

571
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: Obviously they have a capturing Will Smith. He's under a

572
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 1: long term deal, Freddie Freeman. He's under contract for a

573
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 1: couple of more years. So he's blocked with the Dodgers

574
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 1: right now. He's pretty much in a way, sort of

575
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: like a utility player sort of. He could also play

576
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 1: the outfield a little bit, but you know, probably more

577
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: so for him. You know, he's a guy that should

578
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 1: be an everyday catcher, play some first base, you know,

579
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: something like that. He could probably you could play some

580
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: left field here and there, but not really a guy

581
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: that you put out there every day. So he's blocked

582
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 1: a bit here and it's not like anything is gonna

583
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 1: lessen up anytime soon. You know. Again, you could put

584
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 1: him out and left but I don't think the Dodgers,

585
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like they feel fully comfortable with that,

586
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: at least on an everyday basis now also with Rushing,

587
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 1: he is the number twenty prospect as of right now

588
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,720
Speaker 1: in all of Major League Baseball. You know, so I

589
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 1: saw people here today like, oh, well, the Red Sox,

590
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: why you know they're they're gonna trade you know, big

591
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 1: pieces to go after a backup catcher. He's not a

592
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 1: backup catcher. He's the number twenty prospect in all of

593
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. I mean, that's nothing to sniff at.

594
00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: You know, that's nothing to scoff at. Very talented player,

595
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 1: big fan of Dalton Rushing. Guy that has a good

596
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: upside with the bat. He can be solid defensively. His

597
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: guy's built like a like a fricking tank. He's two

598
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 1: twenty six foot one. Absolutely would love me some Dalton Rushing. So,

599
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: getting back to the report here, the Red Sox had

600
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: scouts from the Dodgers taking a peek at Franklin Arius

601
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 1: and Brandon Clark. Now, when you when you think about

602
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 1: those guys, Arius, you know, Arius could maybe be a

603
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 1: guy that the Red Sox could turn to, maybe in

604
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 1: a couple of years in the infield somewhere. But you

605
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 1: just wonder, Marcella Meyer, that's your long term shortstop. Christian Campbell,

606
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: second base, first base. I don't know, whatever it may be. Bregman,

607
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 1: you're probably gonna be keeping him, I would hope, So

608
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: hopefully they can get an extension done with him. So

609
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 1: I'm thinking with Arius, is that a guy that could

610
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: be blocked, you know, for the Red and he has

611
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 1: good value, He's been playing very well down to the

612
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: minor leagues. And then Brandon Clark. Now Brandon Clark very

613
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: good pitching prospect, very good. He has exploded onto the

614
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 1: scene of the Red Sox this year. But the thing

615
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 1: with Brandon Clark, he's still very far away. He's in

616
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 1: High A right now and he's really trying to work

617
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,720
Speaker 1: on the command. He has over five walks per nine

618
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 1: down to the minor leagues this year at high A,

619
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: so that's something he's going to have to clean up.

620
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: He does rack up a good amount of strikeouts. The

621
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 1: VLO looks good, just looks like a well built picture

622
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 1: that has a lot of upside. But again that's kind

623
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: of say you look at how you know he's far

624
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 1: away and he's got to clean up the command. And

625
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 1: you also think about too. The Red Sox just drafted

626
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 1: sixteen more pictures in the draft this year, including three

627
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 1: for your first three picks, all right, Kyson Witherspoon, Marcus Phillips,

628
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 1: and Anthony Ironson. So you kind of wonder, since Brandon

629
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 1: Clark is far away and teams seem to be interested,

630
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 1: we actually had here, We had a report I retweeted

631
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: it a little earlier. Let me actually pull this up here.

632
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: We had here from Chris Klegg. Brandon Clark on the

633
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: bump tonight in Greenville. Scouts from eight different organizations are

634
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 1: in the stands. I mean, yeah, there's a lot of

635
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: upside with him, but and I'm not saying, you know,

636
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's bad and the Red Sox should

637
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,840
Speaker 1: just get rid of him. But I just wonder, you

638
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 1: got Peyton Toley, who is ranked ahead of Brandon Clark

639
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 1: in pretty much every prospect ranking out there, and Peyton

640
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 1: Totley's looking fantastic. You just took all these other pictures,

641
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: you know, your first three picks, especially in the draft,

642
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: guy like Connolly early, he's really flying through. He's been

643
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:57,239
Speaker 1: doing very well in the minor leagues. So you know,

644
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: the Red Sox here, you know kind of wonder you

645
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 1: got a high side guy that's far away that could

646
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: be a guy that maybe you could use to you know,

647
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,319
Speaker 1: land someone especially someone that's cost controlled, that can help

648
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 1: you over the next few years. And getting back to

649
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 1: Dalton Rushing, I mean, listen, I think this is a

650
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,759
Speaker 1: guy where he's looking for an opportunity. He's looking for

651
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:22,360
Speaker 1: a full time spot, and that I think could be

652
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 1: in Boston. You know a guy that plays first at

653
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 1: least for this year, you know, he plays first base

654
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 1: every day, catches a couple of times a week. There's

655
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 1: a guy that could be in the lineup every day

656
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 1: and he could get an opportunity. Now it gets a

657
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 1: little hairy, you know, with Tristan Cassus. Tristan Cassas came

658
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: out of the shadows here today. He was at Famway Park,

659
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 1: he was making the rounds. Well, what happens with him?

660
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 1: You know you kind of just wonder about that. I

661
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: don't know. But then if you have Rushing moving forward,

662
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 1: I mean, do you want Rushing to be an everyday

663
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 1: catcher or do you just kind of stick with like

664
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 1: a Rushing a n Oar bias sort of platoon and

665
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,720
Speaker 1: then maybe Rushing plays the majority at first base moving forward,

666
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 1: and then you end up making some kind of a

667
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:12,840
Speaker 1: move with Cassas later on. I don't know. What I

668
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 1: do know though, is that the Red Sox seemed to

669
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,799
Speaker 1: be open to the idea of it because they are

670
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 1: getting connected with him. But then I started thinking about

671
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:24,400
Speaker 1: it a little bit more. Go back to the Dodger's lineup.

672
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,240
Speaker 1: What we just saw the Dodgers line up here tonight.

673
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,800
Speaker 1: Michael Conforto has not been looking good with the Dodgers

674
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 1: this year. We take a look at his numbers. Remember

675
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 1: they signed him this past offseason. Coming into tonight, he

676
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,880
Speaker 1: was only batting one eighty five on base under three hundred,

677
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 1: slugging out of three twenty seventy nine WRC plus a

678
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: negative zero point four f four eighty five games played

679
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 1: out in left field. So I kind of started thinking

680
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:53,760
Speaker 1: to myself, you know, when I first saw the report,

681
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, okay, that's that's interesting. That's uh, that's

682
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 1: something right. We take a look at ah at maybe

683
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 1: a possible trade. Let me let me line up the

684
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 1: values here when it comes to these two along with

685
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 1: Dalton Rushing, let's do the Red Sox. Let's put the Dodgers,

686
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 1: and let's line up these values here. Brandon Clark and Franklinarius.

687
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: Now with BTV, remember they go off of ranges. I

688
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,440
Speaker 1: think people they focus so much on just this median number,

689
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,480
Speaker 1: but remember, you gotta go with ranges. It's impossible. They

690
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: just put the median number just to kind of give

691
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 1: you a nice simple number there. But when it realistically

692
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: you have to work in those ranges. You're gonna have

693
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,359
Speaker 1: a high end value for these guys and a low

694
00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: end value. There's gonna be different philosophies. There's gonna be

695
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: just teams are going to operate differently, all right, Teams

696
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: are gonna view the value of play differently. So don't

697
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,240
Speaker 1: just focus on that median number on baseball trade values,

698
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: really focus on the range. Now, for Dalton Rushing, he

699
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 1: has good value. Again, he's the number twenty prospect in

700
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 1: all of major League Baseball. He's been hitting great in

701
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,400
Speaker 1: the minor leagues up to this point. So when you

702
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:22,399
Speaker 1: look at the values here, now they're not that far off.

703
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 1: Combined Brandon Clark and Franklin Arius, they're at thirty eight

704
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 1: and a half median value, while Dalton Rushing is right

705
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,680
Speaker 1: at around forty five. So you're sort of in the

706
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:37,080
Speaker 1: realm here. But then I started thinking to myself, well,

707
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, that's kind of weird. Like the Dodgers,

708
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 1: you know, they're trying to repeat this year. This is

709
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 1: a team that is in a World Series window, and yeah,

710
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 1: they'd be getting a couple of guys back for the

711
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:52,719
Speaker 1: future with Ris and Brandon Clark. But I just kind

712
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 1: of think to myself, what did the Dodgers want to

713
00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: use Dalton rushing? You know, because he is locked. Don't

714
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 1: you think maybe they would try to get back a

715
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:08,360
Speaker 1: major league player in return? I think you might know

716
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,359
Speaker 1: where I'm getting at with this one. So I kind

717
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 1: of started thinking to myself, I'm like, well, Conforto, he's

718
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 1: not very good. He hasn't been hitting well. The Dodgers

719
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 1: have a surplus when it comes to rushing. Will Smith, right, Well,

720
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 1: the Red Sox have their own surplus. So I kind

721
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 1: of started thinking to myself, I'm like, well, you know

722
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 1: what if you did something with maybe mister Jared Durant.

723
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 1: And I've been taking the pulse of Dodgers fans. I've

724
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:45,399
Speaker 1: been looking all around twitter Land at Dodgers fans talking

725
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 1: about Jared Durant, and they seem pretty hyped on the idea.

726
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 1: I think Dodger For the most part, Dodger fans would

727
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: love to have someone like Jared duran I mean, could

728
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 1: you imagine him in that lineup with all these guys.

729
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: I mean, that'd be crazy. So again, I'm not saying

730
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 1: this is gonna happen, but it just kind of made

731
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,720
Speaker 1: me starting to you know, it made me think, wouldn't

732
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: the Dodgers want to get someone that can help them now,

733
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 1: right along with maybe getting some guys. So then I

734
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:16,480
Speaker 1: started thinking even more, maybe could we maybe see some

735
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,759
Speaker 1: kind of like a huge blockbuster trade, remember, because they

736
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 1: are scouting Brandon Clark and Franklin Arrius. So I mean,

737
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,400
Speaker 1: I don't know, do you maybe could you maybe do

738
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 1: something like that? Or they got a monster package here

739
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:36,240
Speaker 1: with duran Arius and Clark and then the Red Sox.

740
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,719
Speaker 1: I mean they got a I mean they could get

741
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 1: a lot more back here, they can get a lot

742
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 1: more now, and the Dodgers, I mean they got guys. So,

743
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know who these guys would be.

744
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. I was kind of thinking to myself,

745
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:55,759
Speaker 1: Emmett Shean just saw him tonight. That could be someone, right,

746
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: young cost controlled starter for the Red Sox. Rotation over

747
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:02,279
Speaker 1: the next four years. Could that be a possibility, Like,

748
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 1: let's say you threw him in, I don't know, get

749
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:10,160
Speaker 1: back like Jackson Ferris. I mean, I don't know. It

750
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,720
Speaker 1: kind of just makes me wonder would the Red Sox

751
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:18,320
Speaker 1: do something like this? Probably not. The wheels were turning

752
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 1: in my head though, kind of just wonder. But again

753
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 1: I'm speculating. I'm not. I'm not hearing anything specifically. I

754
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,680
Speaker 1: just found the whole thing interesting, you know, because the Dodgers,

755
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 1: I feel like they would want something now to help

756
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 1: them keep her eyes on this. We'll keep her eyes

757
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,400
Speaker 1: on this now. We did have another report here today,

758
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,239
Speaker 1: I mean, we actually got a lot here from Sean

759
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,360
Speaker 1: McAdam today. You actually talked about a few different guys,

760
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,720
Speaker 1: he says here. In recent days, the Red Sox, according

761
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: to a source, contacted the Marlins that discuss Sandy Alkintara,

762
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 1: though to date no names have been exchanged. Well, Sandy,

763
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: he did look pretty decent in his last start against

764
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 1: the Ponds Rays, but he's been very up and down

765
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 1: this year. The Red Sox want to take a chance

766
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 1: on him. My guess is that the Marlins would ask

767
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:08,320
Speaker 1: for a lot for Sandy his value is pretty low

768
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,799
Speaker 1: at this point because of the bad year. But still

769
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 1: I think the Marlins they would hold to the stick

770
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 1: to their guns and still try to get a good

771
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 1: package back for him, because they could just move him

772
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: this offseason. You don't have to move him now. If

773
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 1: he ends up finishing off the season very well, gets

774
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 1: his numbers in a good place, then well then his

775
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:30,920
Speaker 1: value would be right back to where it was in

776
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 1: the off season. So I don't know, Sandy doesn't seem

777
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 1: very uh, very realistic if you ask me. And then

778
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,759
Speaker 1: we had this one. John McAdam goes on to say,

779
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:47,760
Speaker 1: here the Red Sox have signaled interest in Dylan cease,

780
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 1: who would be a rental. The Pods, raising their never

781
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:53,720
Speaker 1: ending quest to acquire Duran, propose a package involving Cease

782
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:58,840
Speaker 1: catching prospect Ethan Sallas and another prospect not Leo d

783
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:05,000
Speaker 1: Vrize for Duran, which was quickly rejected. Now, when it

784
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 1: comes to this trade, this is interesting because value wise,

785
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,880
Speaker 1: it depends on who the prospect is. I would imagine,

786
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe Cash Mayfield. Let's just put him in.

787
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,200
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're doing these three for Jaron Duran,

788
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:29,360
Speaker 1: you are looking pretty even here in terms of value.

789
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 1: But this is where values on Baseball trade values or

790
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 1: however you value these players. It's only half the battle.

791
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 1: Then you got to put the real world situations in,

792
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 1: like the Red Sox not wanting Ethan Sallas. Now I've

793
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,320
Speaker 1: talked about this before where I'm like, could you do

794
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:55,400
Speaker 1: Salas maybe, but is that really someone that you want

795
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:59,240
Speaker 1: leading the package in terms of value. His bat's completely

796
00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 1: fallen off, very good defense, he's been dealing with a

797
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:04,839
Speaker 1: back injury this year. That's a guy I don't really

798
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 1: see the Red Sox wanting. And that's why I've come

799
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 1: up with these other three team proposals where maybe another

800
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 1: team could take Sallas. I was looking at the Twins,

801
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 1: maybe they could use more catching within their organization. They

802
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 1: just let Diego Kartaya go. So that's where I was

803
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:22,640
Speaker 1: speculating with the Twins, where maybe you could do something

804
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 1: with Joe Ryan and think Jaron Durant can go to

805
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:29,239
Speaker 1: the Poddres, you know. So for the Red Sox, though

806
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: Ethan Sallas doesn't seem very realistic to me, value wise, yeah,

807
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:38,400
Speaker 1: it lines up realistically though probably not. And I'm not

808
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:42,720
Speaker 1: surprised to see the report of the Red Sox quickly

809
00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 1: rejecting it. I don't think Preller's gonna stop here. I

810
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:48,880
Speaker 1: think He's gonna keep trying to find a way. And

811
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,440
Speaker 1: this is where I wonder over the next few days,

812
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 1: here do we start to see maybe some other teams

813
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 1: getting into the fold. Preller really wants to upgrade this

814
00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 1: team for the stretch run. He really wants Duran. We'll

815
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:06,840
Speaker 1: see here. I mean, but getting back to Dylan Ceese,

816
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:09,919
Speaker 1: I think this is a guy that the Red Sox would

817
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,839
Speaker 1: be open to. This is my own personal opinion. If

818
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,160
Speaker 1: they were able to get some kind of a package

819
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 1: where they're getting some solid pieces for the future, and

820
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 1: if Dylan Ceque just happens to come along, he could

821
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:23,399
Speaker 1: help them over the next couple of months, I think

822
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:27,799
Speaker 1: they would be okay with that, could they if it

823
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 1: involved Jaron Duran, could they do a separate deal for

824
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 1: Dylan Ceese where they just give them, you know, some prospects.

825
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 1: But I think Preller he wants to bring back guys

826
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,279
Speaker 1: that can help him now right the Durant seems to

827
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 1: be the perfect guy for him because he could help

828
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:44,880
Speaker 1: them this year and he would have him for the

829
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:48,160
Speaker 1: next few years. Padres fans think that Duran's not a

830
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,279
Speaker 1: great fit because they need more power. In a way,

831
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,560
Speaker 1: I kind of agree, because the Padres they rank near

832
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 1: the bottom when it comes to home runs. So but

833
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 1: if Preller is in love with Duran, then hey, I'm

834
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 1: not going to stop the man. So we'll see. I'm

835
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 1: not so sure. Cease, though, keep your eyes out for

836
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:09,480
Speaker 1: him as well. We also had this. You know, I'm

837
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 1: gonna there's nothing substantial of this. I'm really speculating here,

838
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:16,439
Speaker 1: but I saw that. I don't know why I missed

839
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:18,759
Speaker 1: this the other day. It was a couple of days ago.

840
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:23,439
Speaker 1: Guardians open to offers on Shane Bieber. Remember the Red

841
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:27,360
Speaker 1: Sox were involved for Bieber in the off season. I

842
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:31,640
Speaker 1: am completely speculating here. I wonder if maybe the Red

843
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:36,200
Speaker 1: Sox maybe pick up the phone. He's on a rehab

844
00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:40,880
Speaker 1: assignment right now. I don't know. I'm just gonna point

845
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 1: that out. I missed it the other day, and I

846
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 1: don't know why. It just it got by me. Whatever

847
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 1: it is, ladies and gentlemen, it's only gonna get more

848
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,319
Speaker 1: spicy over the next few days. And I see a

849
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,479
Speaker 1: lot of you are very interested in the chat about

850
00:45:55,480 --> 00:46:00,319
Speaker 1: whatever is going on. Nick Kurtz six for six with

851
00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:06,040
Speaker 1: four home runs. What in the world, Man, what in

852
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:09,040
Speaker 1: the world? I was saying, Man, I'll say one more time.

853
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:10,759
Speaker 1: Coming out of that draft, I was saying, I think

854
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 1: that guy could end up being the best player coming

855
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:17,160
Speaker 1: out of that draft. Austin, Why don't the Padres just

856
00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:21,680
Speaker 1: try to get Kwan? I don't think they could afford him.

857
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, would the Guardians want Sallas.

858
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:28,120
Speaker 1: I think the Guardians would want Leo Devrize. I think

859
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 1: absolutely it would take Leo Devrize. But I don't think

860
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:32,719
Speaker 1: the Padres are going to give him up. I don't

861
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 1: think I think Leo Devrize is off the table. He's

862
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,320
Speaker 1: one of the top prospects in baseball. Number five overall

863
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,359
Speaker 1: or three overall, can't remember the exact number. But that's

864
00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 1: why it always takes two to tango. You need two teams.

865
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:46,440
Speaker 1: It's very easy to say, hey, why don't you just

866
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:51,279
Speaker 1: go get this player. The other team has to, you know,

867
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:55,319
Speaker 1: line up as well. All right, so we'll see, but

868
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,319
Speaker 1: everybody will keep our eyes on this. If we do

869
00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:00,200
Speaker 1: have any more news to report over the next few days,

870
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:01,839
Speaker 1: you know where to find me. I'm sure we're gonna

871
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: have something else tomorrow. We'll have tomorrow's post game for

872
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 1: Game two. I'm excited for it. Everybody, go enjoy the

873
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:12,879
Speaker 1: rest of your night, Go get some sleep, and I'll

874
00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:13,440
Speaker 1: see tomorrow
