WEBVTT - BFFs 7/30 Hour 2: MLB Trade Deadline, Machado Revisited, Best Bets 0:00:01.120 --> 0:00:04.560 News up in baseball. John Mercy of MLB Network reports 0:00:04.559 --> 0:00:07.080 that the Astros are showing continued interest in Tiger's left 0:00:07.120 --> 0:00:11.120 hander Matthew Boyd. Apparently, the Astros are also heavily linked 0:00:11.400 --> 0:00:14.240 to right hander Zach Reeler. Wheeler is a free agent 0:00:14.280 --> 0:00:16.560 after the end of the season. Matt Boyd is under 0:00:16.560 --> 0:00:20.520 team control through two. Mark finds In of MLB dot 0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:23.119 Com reports that the Red Sox are unlikely suitors for 0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:26.759 Edwin Diaz, Shane Green, and raciol At Galasias Expire of 0:00:26.760 --> 0:00:29.360 the Boston Globe and Camero's involved the Athletic are hearing 0:00:29.400 --> 0:00:32.360 the same. John Hayman of MLB Network reports that the 0:00:32.360 --> 0:00:36.320 Indians are increasingly unlikely to trade Trevor Bauer. This could 0:00:36.400 --> 0:00:38.839 be a sense of posturing by the Indians, but it 0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:41.400 does seem as though his trade value may be diminishing 0:00:41.520 --> 0:00:44.080 and down. A Chiefs camp, Tyree Kill was seen being 0:00:44.159 --> 0:00:46.879 carted off the field. Noword yet on what the injury is. 0:00:47.240 --> 0:00:49.880 I'm Van Strafford.

Last night didn't get enough sleep, obviously, 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:12.359 got home a little late. What is an average you 0:02:12.680 --> 0:02:16.840 sleep for you? What does it look like? Probably seven 0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:21.480 ish hours? But last night I only got like six, 0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:24.959 less than ideal, but all but it's probably worth it 0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:28.360 for lugers. Yeah, definitely was. And yeah, came back to 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:29.679 the came back to the house, had a couple of 0:02:29.720 --> 0:02:31.880 beers with these guys, watch some watch some baseball from 0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:36.600 late night Chris Paddock action. Outside of that, happy to 0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:38.840 talk some some football in the first hour. Frank, how 0:02:38.840 --> 0:02:41.200 did our how do our best bets do? Last night? Oh? 0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:43.919 You did? You did very well. You gave us one 0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:47.040 best bet. You want to know? Right? I went went 0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:49.200 to Frank, I think you're forgetting the part where I 0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:53.200 sat here and begged you. Yeah, begged you. That's we 0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:55.040 were missing something in the Dodgers game. And do not 0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:57.920 take the Dodgers, please you and learn, you know, I 0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:00.040 sat here and begged you tell me why I was on. 0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:03.440 Greg goes out there and throws eight innings. It's a 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:07.160 sucker batman. Yeah, And admittedly I thought yours was a sucker. 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:11.600 Bet came close close the total nine and a half. Yeah. 0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:14.640 So I was watching that game at Anchor Bar and 0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:17.120 the under seven and a half of the Marlins. That 0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:20.520 game was like eleven and six. What are we doing, 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:25.480 Earl Kelly Man, Just don't take anything to do with that, gay. 0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:28.280 So I was watching. I was watching that dimeback ski 0:03:28.440 --> 0:03:30.720 not time actually in the Nationals game and Anchor Bar, 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:32.799 and it was like to one and for a while, 0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:34.960 and this is going graze at six a thing boom 0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:38.720 any renown. It's a grand slam six to against me 0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:40.920 in my home league where I have like the most 0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:44.640 points against, second most points scored, not in the playoffs 0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:46.920 right now, an't even know it. Hits a grand slam 0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:49.720 against me. Eric Hosmer hits two home runs against me, Greg, 0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:53.680 I cannot catch a break Monday. Who did I piss off? 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:57.000 What did I do to anger the fantasy gods? Greg? 0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:00.840 I don't deserve this. I'm sorry, Frank. I'm a good person. 0:04:01.000 --> 0:04:05.200 Are you? Probably not? Sometimes I don't know. I'm sorry. 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:07.600 I've taken advantage of a lot of people in fantasy sports. 0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:10.320 You have, and now and now coming back to bite. 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:12.680 It's all coming back to bite you from behind the 0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:14.560 last night. I want to know one pit one to know, 0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:17.239 and I try to tell him, bounce back tonight. Don't draft, 0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:19.400 don't don't take the Dodgers. It is a mistake. It 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:22.840 is a grave, grave error. You're starting tonight for the Dodgers. Yeah, 0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:25.880 I mean opener situation. I'm sure an opener. Great. Do 0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:27.640 you have any trades going down in baseball right now? 0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:31.440 David Phelps was traded. David Phelps, former Yankee, former Yankee 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:35.640 great has traded away to the Cups. Huh from the 0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:38.480 Blue Jays? Correct? Correct? Yes, Okay, so I think that 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:41.479 they were trying to shop Ken Giles. But everything that 0:04:41.480 --> 0:04:43.839 I'm reading now is that whatever is going on with 0:04:43.880 --> 0:04:45.360 his elbow is pretty serious. So I don't think they're 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:47.520 gonna be able to trade him. It seems that way. Yes, 0:04:47.640 --> 0:04:50.960 So if Ken Giles has not moved now David Phelps 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:54.719 has gone, then for those who playing fantasy baseball, Daniel 0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:59.080 Hudson probably the closer here for the Blue Jaystal potentially, 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:00.480 so he could get traded as well as you don't 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:02.800 want to make that pick up yet. Ken Giles is 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:05.880 the last Ken Rosenthal visited. Dr Keith Meister and Dallas 0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:08.760 no structural damage in the elbow, but the picture received 0:05:08.760 --> 0:05:11.480 a quarterson shot. He will not pitch again before tomorrow. 0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:14.320 Are you surprised that this trade deadline has been so 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:18.720 slow moving, Greg? Yeah, No, I think we got a 0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:21.479 little spoiled last year because so much happened. It was 0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:24.000 a wild trade. Just it was just reading an article 0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:25.360 and let me want to pull up the exact stat 0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:29.039 for you. Here we go. Last year, there were nineteen 0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:33.039 major league trades between July one and July. Among the 0:05:33.040 --> 0:05:36.680 players moved were Zach Britton, Cole Hamil's, Brad hand Manny Machado, 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:40.640 and Mike Mustakas. Those were significant deals. This year, between 0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:44.919 July one and July there have been eight trades, so 0:05:45.080 --> 0:05:50.400 nineteen versus eight. The headliners for those eight trades, Marcus Stroman, 0:05:50.480 --> 0:05:55.040 Andrew Kashner, and Sergio Romo not a great group. So 0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:57.240 with being that there's just one trade deadline, I think 0:05:57.240 --> 0:05:59.960 everyone's literally waiting into the last possible moment. As Andrew 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.480 ran't like to say a lot on Twitter, deadline spur 0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:05.320 action and there has been very little action during this 0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:09.720 action hour for Fantasy Baseball, for Major League Baseball. Now 0:06:09.760 --> 0:06:13.080 tomorrow our Action Hour, it's gonna be live, man, because 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:15.080 it's the last hour up until the deadlines. So we're 0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:17.160 gonna have you covered a moment to moment which is 0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:19.840 gonna be really, really awesome. We expect more trades to 0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:22.440 get done. Everyone's trying to really determine are you a buyer? 0:06:22.480 --> 0:06:24.520 Are you a seller? You're trying to eke out as 0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:27.000 much value as possible. The latest that we've read is 0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:29.960 that Matthew Boy will not get traded. You've heard Madison 0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:32.560 Bumgarner won't get traded, and then the uh, the Astres 0:06:32.560 --> 0:06:34.520 desperately want him. The latest on the Astres is that 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:36.440 they are determined to come away with a picture, whether 0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:40.000 it be mad As a bum Garner, Trevor Um, Trevor Bauer, 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:44.600 or Zach Wheeler will see people certainly think that Wheeler 0:06:44.760 --> 0:06:48.520 to Um would Houston and makes owe too much sense, 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:51.280 and I would I would agree with that same as 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:54.520 a fantasy owner of Zach Wheeler. Please please, we're begging 0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:58.000 that is someone that the Astros would get their hands 0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:00.280 on and it's turn them into an absolute stud gold. 0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:02.600 It would be the best thing for Zach Wheeler as well, 0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:04.839 because I think you would have a monster second half 0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:07.240 now and then probably get himself a pretty good contract 0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:09.440 and free agency. So if I'm Zach Wheeler, I would 0:07:09.480 --> 0:07:11.880 want to go to Houston as well. Remains to see 0:07:12.360 --> 0:07:14.600 to be seen what the Mets are asking for in return. 0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:17.480 But Greg, you would have to imagine that if the 0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:20.160 Giants are willing to move Madison Bumgner or at least 0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:23.200 listen to the Astros, Kyle Tucker has to be one 0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:24.800 of the pieces that are that is going back to 0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:26.960 the San Francisco Giants. I would think that I would 0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:29.600 think trade they would trade away Kyle Tucker. I very 0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:32.760 much agree Um. I will say this from Joel Sherman. 0:07:32.800 --> 0:07:36.720 One executive described today as quote moving day, as prices 0:07:36.760 --> 0:07:39.680 are changing on certain items, mainly recognition that with no 0:07:39.760 --> 0:07:43.600 August trade. All deals for third catchers, for bench guys, 0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:46.600 for deep relief prospects have to be done as well 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:49.360 in the next twenty four hours. You better not wait 0:07:49.440 --> 0:07:51.200 until tomorrow and try to do too much. You know. 0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:54.840 The Yankees, for instance, want to acquire um international signing 0:07:54.840 --> 0:07:56.640 motus money. You have to do that now. You can't 0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:59.520 do that next month. All this guy always trade for 0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:03.320 these schmuky end of the bench guys, these bullpaging arms. 0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:05.000 You have to do that now. You know what they 0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:09.320 traded away for international money, right Caleb Smith and Garrett Cooper, 0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:12.840 two players who were performing very well for the Miami Marlins. 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:15.720 Now you know, hindsight, I'm not gonna sit here and 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:19.160 slam Cashman because it makes a ton of very uh 0:08:19.280 --> 0:08:22.360 shrewd moves and very smart moves, but that certainly was 0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:25.280 not one of them. The Yankees can really use Caleb 0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:27.240 Smith right now to just based on the way that 0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:29.920 their pitching staff has looked Greg when we come back, 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:32.400 I kind of want to revisit the Manni Machado trade 0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:34.240 a year later because I was talking about this with 0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:36.040 some of the guys last night, and I want to 0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:38.760 bring it up to you because I think that the 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:41.319 Baltimore Orial has got absolutely hosed in that deal. I 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:43.520 understand it was a rental, but they should have got 0:08:43.559 --> 0:08:45.719 more than what they did for Mannie Machado. We'll talk 0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:47.760 about that, We'll talk about anything else that's breaking with 0:08:47.800 --> 0:08:50.400 the MLB trade. We'll get some NFL stuff with Ezekiel 0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:53.000 Elliott continuing. He's hold out all over the next hour. 0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:58.319 Best bets coming as well as the ground.

Dog, We're back 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:39.640 with you here on the BFFs Quick Trivia question. It 0:09:39.760 --> 0:09:41.680 was one that was part of my trivia last week 0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:44.280 and I forgot. This just reminded me you name the 0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:48.679 artist who Let the Dogs Out? It's correct. Even I 0:09:48.760 --> 0:09:51.880 knew that one was an easy one. It was any 0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:54.480 more coming up for you? Nah, well, it might be 0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:57.319 one of the bar games coming up soon. It's not 0:09:57.440 --> 0:09:59.760 this week, but if we do play trivia, I'll let 0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:02.440 you know. You're on the schedule this week. This week, 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:06.320 I have to look it up. I don't know at 0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:08.520 the top of my head. We will have a bargain 0:10:08.559 --> 0:10:11.000 after dodgeball this week. Very cool, buddy, very very cool. 0:10:11.120 --> 0:10:12.679 All right, before we went the break, you want you 0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:14.439 wanted to go into many Machado and the trade the 0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:19.760 Dodgers made last year. Yeah, so the prospects that the 0:10:19.800 --> 0:10:24.280 Orioles received. Now, at the time, it was used Neil Diaz, 0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:31.360 Dean Kramer, Rylan Bannon, Zach Pop and uh, I'm not 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:33.240 even gonna try this this last name here, but used 0:10:33.280 --> 0:10:37.560 Neil Diaz was the he was the main he was 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:42.160 the centerpiece of this trade, Greg And there's still time 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:44.960 for him to turn it around. But so far in 0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:48.679 the minors this season, between high A ball and Double A, 0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:52.680 he's sitting two with ten home runs in fifty two 0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:58.440 rbs ps. How did the Orioles mess this one up? 0:10:59.760 --> 0:11:01.959 I'm remember the team they should have been able to 0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:04.720 get Alex Verdugo. No, I remember At the time, everyone 0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:07.440 thought it was kind of like a fair deal. You know, 0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:11.560 like this guy Kramer, who's a starting pitcher, he's pitching well, 0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:12.880 he's like a three or nine e r A and 0:11:12.960 --> 0:11:14.680 double A. Like that's fine, he might turn out to 0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:18.200 be something. But if I'm trading Manny Machado away and 0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:21.280 I realized he's a rental, but he's you know, he 0:11:21.320 --> 0:11:25.760 also just earned a massive super contract in the off season. 0:11:26.200 --> 0:11:29.680 He's one of the best hitters in the game today. 0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:33.160 I would have imagined he nets you back at least 0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:36.720 a centerpiece player who you feel stronger about this. Isn't 0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:40.920 it possible that they chose Diaz over Verdugo. I feel 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:43.040 like everything we heard last year was that Verdugo was 0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:45.480 like off limits in any type of trade like that. 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:48.160 Obviously Walker Bueler was off limits because he's pitching super well. 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:50.760 I think Julio Urias was off limits. Is what? Like? 0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:53.080 Those are the names. Look, if you want Manny Machado, 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:55.480 you're coming to meet you want Manny Machado, I'm not 0:11:55.480 --> 0:11:57.600 giving him up unless I'm getting Verdugo or if I'm 0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:01.600 getting Julio Urias or something like that. Right, and there's 0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:03.760 still time for using the l DS to turn this around. 0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:06.800 But everything that I've seen from his minor league profile, 0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:11.560 he has not wowed me in any sense, Like in 0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:14.800 terms of his bat tool, his hit tool, his power tool. 0:12:15.840 --> 0:12:17.679 There's nothing that's really over the top. It's just I 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:21.200 feel like maybe it's because the Yankees got Labor Torres 0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:24.640 in return for Arola's Chapman. That was a rental and 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:27.280 it was a closer compared to a position player, one 0:12:27.280 --> 0:12:29.720 of the best position players in the game. I just 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:32.559 feel like the Orioles should have gotten a better center 0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:34.959 piece to that trade. Even at Gavin lux who look 0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:37.440 at what he's doing right now, you couldn't have predicted 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:39.960 that at the time. I get it, but I just 0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:42.640 feel like the Orioles are just you know, they're doing 0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:45.120 Orioles things. I even at the time last year I said, 0:12:45.160 --> 0:12:47.199 I thought, I don't know how the Orioles walked away 0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:50.160 from that trade not getting a better center piece than 0:12:50.480 --> 0:12:53.160 using the l DS. That's just me. The trade deadline 0:12:53.200 --> 0:12:56.520 itself is unpredictable, as of the prospects that we require 0:12:56.559 --> 0:12:58.840 and the Mets. The more I have read everyone really 0:12:58.840 --> 0:13:00.880 likes the trade for the Mets with pieces that they 0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:03.760 gave away no to top one hundred prospects and they 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:05.400 look at what the Blue Jays acquired them, like what 0:13:05.520 --> 0:13:07.480 this This is what you get from Marcus Stroman, who 0:13:07.480 --> 0:13:11.080 could be the best picture traded on the market. So again, 0:13:11.120 --> 0:13:13.480 and the Blue Jays in two years from now could 0:13:13.520 --> 0:13:17.400 the last lap, you know. So it remains to be 0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:22.080 seen ultimately how these trades wind up working out. Now 0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:24.559 any other trade deadline news, Frank, before we move on, 0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:28.400 there's nothing concrete, just you know, rumors swirling as well. 0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:31.000 Kenna Zenthal just had this two minutes ago. Pirates listening 0:13:31.000 --> 0:13:33.760 more actively on Phelippe A. Baskets, sources tell the Athletic 0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:36.800 deal still appears to be a long shot assessment from 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:40.360 executive of one contender priced out of reach. I mean, 0:13:40.360 --> 0:13:42.520 that's what it should be, because Phelipe vasket is the 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:45.320 past two seasons has been one of the ten best 0:13:45.320 --> 0:13:47.520 closers in bass could be one of the five best 0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:50.080 closers in baseball. And you'd have to imagine, you know, 0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:52.920 we've heard the Dodgers most closely linked to this one. 0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:55.200 If he removed there, I would imagine he's not the 0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:59.080 closer anymore. So, just something to consider for fantasy baseball. 0:13:59.280 --> 0:14:00.720 I don't I don't even who the next man up 0:14:00.760 --> 0:14:02.280 would be in the Pirates. It like it might be 0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:06.520 Kyle Crick or I believe it Richard Rodriguez is someone 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:08.280 who was on that team, someone that I've looked into. 0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:11.200 But yeah, pay attention to the Pirates here. They're listening 0:14:11.200 --> 0:14:14.520 on Felipe Baskets. We'll see if Phelipe Vaska is ultimately 0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:16.640 moves depending on what the Pirates get. Hey, I the 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:21.360 Gavin looks in the deal, they'll do it probably, Yeah, 0:14:21.480 --> 0:14:22.960 I mean, it doesn't hurt to ask or even a 0:14:23.040 --> 0:14:25.760 Dustin May right there, top pitching prosper you got that 0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:28.000 big red hair too, And you gotta imagine this. The 0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:31.040 Pirates riddle gun Shy after the Christi Archardes bacle last year. 0:14:31.400 --> 0:14:33.040 My goodness, like that guy should be that guy should 0:14:33.040 --> 0:14:35.920 be fired now. Yeah, I mean, that's gonna go down 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:39.080 as one of the worst moves in a long long time. 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:44.920 And trading away both their top hitting and pitching prospects. Well, 0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:47.480 at the time, you know Tyler class now we had 0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:49.840 he was still the top pitching. We had done this 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:51.840 for a few years though he was going back and 0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:54.600 forth between the bullpen and the rotation, and it seems 0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:56.840 like it wasn't working out. I think it was one 0:14:56.880 --> 0:14:58.840 of those change of scenery things where he ends up 0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:01.280 with Tampa Bay. And of course Tampa Bay much like Houston, 0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:03.640 you know, they trade for pitching or signed pitching and 0:15:03.920 --> 0:15:06.360 they get the best out of that player. So Tyler Glass, 0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:08.520 now he's injured right now, but when he was healthy, 0:15:08.720 --> 0:15:10.720 looked like a really really good piece for the future 0:15:10.760 --> 0:15:13.040 when it comes to Tampa Bay. And obviously Austin Meadows 0:15:13.160 --> 0:15:15.840 has slowed down, but for the most part, looks like 0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:17.440 he's going to be a really good player as well. 0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:20.680 Chris Archery belief has the second highest e r A 0:15:20.680 --> 0:15:24.240 among qualified starting pitchers this year. Greg, it's not gonna 0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:26.680 get it done. That is not going to get it done. No, 0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:33.200 it's obviously not. How has he fallen this far? Greg? Honestly, man, well, 0:15:33.240 --> 0:15:35.360 he's not he's not a qualified starting pitcher because he 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:38.200 doesn't have enough any's pitched. It's terrible, man, He's all 0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:44.880 very bad. Among among starting pitchers with a without picture 0:15:44.960 --> 0:15:48.760 more is the second highest e ARRA behind Aaron Sanchez. 0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:51.560 He's a Chris Archer is a five point five eight 0:15:51.600 --> 0:15:55.640 e r A. He's three and eight. Strack out per 0:15:55.720 --> 0:15:59.040 nine are still there. Walks per nine are still very high. Man. 0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:01.480 I mean the fall from race for Chris Archer, it 0:16:01.560 --> 0:16:05.440 seems like just yesterday, and it wasn't just yesterday, because 0:16:05.440 --> 0:16:06.920 it was two thousand and fifteen was the last time 0:16:06.920 --> 0:16:09.080 he had an ear A below four. But he you know, 0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:10.920 he had three seasons in a in a row of 0:16:10.920 --> 0:16:13.000 a three point three three e r A of lets 0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:17.080 or less. And now from he said, four straight years 0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:19.600 of a four point oh to e r A or higher. 0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:22.720 Just a really really big fall from grace when it 0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:24.840 comes to Chris Archer, probably another guy who needs a 0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:28.440 change of scenery. He got that didn't work. He needs 0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:31.120 another one. I fee goes to Houston like that guy 0:16:31.120 --> 0:16:33.760 in Houston, right, Send him back to Tampa. Maybe they'll 0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:35.920 figure him out. I feel like going to Houston would 0:16:36.000 --> 0:16:38.080 really fix things. I think for the longest time, he 0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:39.720 just he doesn't have a third pitch, right, He's just 0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:43.560 very predictable. He's fastball slider, really good fastball, really get slider. 0:16:43.640 --> 0:16:44.920 I also feel like he has no idea what the 0:16:44.920 --> 0:16:48.240 balls going. Yeah, that's probably true. He struggles with you know, 0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:50.560 he doesn't have pinpoint command. He's not one of these 0:16:50.560 --> 0:16:53.040 guys were like, he doesn't have any idea where it's going. 0:16:53.320 --> 0:16:55.760 But I think if a catcher puts his glove down 0:16:55.800 --> 0:16:58.160 and he's like here, paint the outside corner with his fastball, 0:16:58.440 --> 0:17:02.080 more often than not, Chris Archer can do that. Speaking 0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:04.639 of the Pirates, Jameson Tyans probably gonna be out for 0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:06.680 the year probably. I mean, they're not really playing for 0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:09.720 anything at this point, so that's unfortunate as well. Things 0:17:09.760 --> 0:17:13.000 are really going importantly for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Yeah, I 0:17:13.000 --> 0:17:14.760 mean some of it by their own doings, so I 0:17:14.800 --> 0:17:17.800 can't really blame anyone but themselves. Tyther Glass also got hurt. 0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:21.480 Yeah he did, and he you know, he reinjured himself. 0:17:21.520 --> 0:17:23.200 We might not see Tyler Glass now again this year. 0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:25.480 But when he pitched, he was awesome, quite well. He 0:17:25.560 --> 0:17:27.680 was one of the top fifteen pitchers in baseball while 0:17:27.680 --> 0:17:33.880 he was healthy. It's pitching very well. Yeah, man, the Pirates, 0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:35.560 there are mess A lot of these a lot of 0:17:35.560 --> 0:17:38.679 these teams are messes in MLB. Ah. The latest from 0:17:38.720 --> 0:17:42.240 John Hayman just across the wire here Atlanta and Oakland 0:17:42.240 --> 0:17:44.080 A's have joined the New York Yankees with interest in 0:17:44.720 --> 0:17:52.520 Tanner Rour? What what the Yankees are interested in? Tanna Rour? 0:17:53.760 --> 0:17:58.880 And who else? Oakland? And who Atlanta? Oh my goodness, 0:18:00.119 --> 0:18:02.960 I wouldn't wish that up all my worst enemy paying 0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:04.760 a roll work on the season. I don't like he's 0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:07.560 pitched well at times, but he's also been like blown up. 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:12.879 He's very inconsistent pitching in Yankee Stadium to oh, gosh, no, 0:18:13.000 --> 0:18:15.040 thank you. Here's a three point nine five e r 0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:20.440 a a four point four six x fit. Oh my goodness, 0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:22.800 is underlying number? I mean eight and a half percent 0:18:22.840 --> 0:18:25.720 swinging shrike create Tanner row Wark. I mean the groundball 0:18:25.960 --> 0:18:28.120 percentage has gone down over the past couple of seasons, 0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:29.959 at least trying to row work. But you could have 0:18:30.160 --> 0:18:33.239 hang your onng your hat on. When he was like 0:18:33.480 --> 0:18:35.800 in his prime with the Nationals was that he would 0:18:35.840 --> 0:18:38.840 get a ton of groundballs. He doesn't even do that anymore. 0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:41.280 Groundball ready is thirty six and a half percent? You 0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:44.080 put that in Yankee Stadium. What's gonna happen there? Thirty 0:18:44.119 --> 0:18:46.960 five percent hard hit rate this year? Too? Gosh, no 0:18:47.119 --> 0:18:49.080 thank you? You know what let him go to Oakland. 0:18:49.280 --> 0:18:51.359 You know what a guy Mike Y was a different 0:18:51.359 --> 0:18:55.000 REDS pitcher on the Yankees. What's up our guy, Mike 0:18:55.840 --> 0:18:57.360 from the River have blues? He was a different REDS 0:18:57.359 --> 0:19:00.680 pitcher on the Yankee Sonny Gray, bring him back legs. One, 0:19:01.280 --> 0:19:04.000 oh god, what are we doing here? Let's get Louise 0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:08.920 catch and test at all. Right, we'll say break.

Is heu? Elliott did not 0:20:38.680 --> 0:20:40.959 board the plane l A, where the Cowboys host their 0:20:41.000 --> 0:20:44.399 training camp. Instead, he headed out to Cabo, where he 0:20:44.440 --> 0:20:48.159 spent time during his suspension. Now, admittedly, if I was 0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:50.760 uh didn't have to work during the summer, I might 0:20:50.760 --> 0:20:52.480 go to Cabo as well.

Way 0:21:00.200 --> 0:21:03.879
