1
00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:05,040
Speaker 1: Lady young one avoiding her old long and van Wait Martin,

2
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: Welcome to boss A Territory, ladies and gentlemen. Man oh man,

3
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: it's been a good couple of days. And that doesn't

4
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: even involve the Red Sox. How about the Patriots going

5
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl. I'll tell you, man. You know,

6
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 1: I remember when I first started watching the Patriots. I

7
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: think I was eleven. I think I just turned eleven

8
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,919
Speaker 1: years old. I can't remember fully, my brain is a potato.

9
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: But you know, we've been spoiled for so many years.

10
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 1: You know, Tom Brady best of all time. Him and

11
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick, my goodness, just dynasties all over the place

12
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: of the Patriots. And then you get back here with

13
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: Drake may Vrabel. I mean, what a group this this

14
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: team has been this year. I just go back week

15
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 1: I believe it was Week two against the Dolphins, Mike

16
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: Vrabel running down the sideline for the touchdown. I just

17
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: had a good feeling at that point. Now, I'm not

18
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 1: gonna sit here and say, you know, super Bowl feeling,

19
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: but you felt good about the team. You felt like

20
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: the team was in a good place energy wise, everything's

21
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: been in sync. Man o, man, what a team this year.

22
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: Let's see if they can get it done against the Seahawks.

23
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you, man, you know, listen, I know

24
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: it's a Red Sox show, but you know, obviously the

25
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: Pats big news here, and I go back to that.

26
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 1: You know, the Patriot Seahawks was at twenty fifteen, and

27
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: what what a game that was, What an ending that was,

28
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: that was just the nail bier all the way until

29
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: the end. That was me goodness, gracious man o man,

30
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: I'm excited for it, excited for the Super Bowl. Well,

31
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: I guess there's been some talk about Drake May with

32
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: his shoulder. People have been saying that's a bunch of bs.

33
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: No one fully denying it. I think Vrabel even today

34
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: he never actually, you know, said he didn't have a

35
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 1: shoulder injury or whatever it was. Or I think he

36
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: said something along the lines of, you know, everyone's dinged up,

37
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: everyone's dealing with something, but we'll have him ready to

38
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: play or something like that. So anyway, let's see if

39
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 1: the pass can get it done. Man, Let's see if

40
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 1: they can get it done. But we got some Red

41
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: Sox to talk about. We got some Red Sox to

42
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: talk about, and in this episode here at tonight, I'm

43
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 1: gonna be reacting to a whole bunch of trade proposals,

44
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: and some of them are I like some of them,

45
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: but man oh man, some of them I'm scratching my

46
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: head over. To be completely honest with you, I'm not

47
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: gonna completely trash on some of these reactions or on

48
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: some of these trades with these reactions. But you know,

49
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to dissect him a little bit. I

50
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: got about ten, eleven, maybe twelve different proposals. We're gonna

51
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 1: have some fun with it. Everyone in the chad how

52
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 1: you doing? If he can, hit the like button for me, subscribe,

53
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: if you are new, if you are just finding us

54
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: for the first time, hit that subscribe button. We're trying

55
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: to get the seven k by opening day. I think

56
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: we got a shot at it. I think we do.

57
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: Let's not waste any more time. Let's get to it here.

58
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: Let's get to the first trade proposal. And this is

59
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: coming from a member of the White Sox community. What

60
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: do we got here, Let's do a little bit. Let's

61
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: do this. Here we go. We'll share this part from

62
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: Mike Chi Socks fan. Mike, I'd be interested to see

63
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: what a Red Sox fan thinks of this idea. White

64
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: Sox receive Will You're a bray you and Hayden Mullins,

65
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: the Red Sox receive Edgar Quero and Lenine Soso. I

66
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: hate to break it to you. I hate to break

67
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: it to you, but this is no bueno. This is

68
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: this is not a this is not very good. We're

69
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: very far apart here. We're gonna need to add a

70
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: little bit more here. Now here's the thing with Edgar Quero. Now,

71
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: it's funny the Red Sox. You know, they've been talking

72
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: a little bit of White Sox this offseason about Kyle

73
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: Teal Red Sox election. What can you say? I mean, hey,

74
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: he brought back Garrett Crochet. So I think if the

75
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: Red Sox were to go after one of the catchers

76
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: with the red with the White Sox, it would be

77
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: Kyle Teal. I'm not so sure about edwar Quero. But

78
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: with Quero, he is going to have some decent value.

79
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 1: Right he is a caxture, so that's really gonna boost

80
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 1: the positional value for him. But here on baseball trade values,

81
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: he's only had a median surplus of right around fifteen

82
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: million and the reason for that, he hasn't shown too

83
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: much overall with the bat up to this point. He's

84
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: put up some good numbers in the minor leagues, there's

85
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,359
Speaker 1: just not a whole lot of track record offensively to

86
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: go off of, at least as of right now. There

87
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: definitely is some upside there, you know, but with you know,

88
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 1: you're also gonna put Lenine Sosa in this trade, a

89
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: guy that he can move around a little bit. He

90
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: can play second base, but also you know, some first

91
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,039
Speaker 1: even a little bit of third as well. But the

92
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: problem with Lenine Sosa is there's not I mean, yes,

93
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,039
Speaker 1: he did put up some decent power last year from

94
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 1: the right side. He hit twenty two home runs, had

95
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: seventy five RBI. But you know, you take a look

96
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: at the walk percentage. Only a three percent walk rate

97
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: last year and a twenty three percent strikeout rate. Listen,

98
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, that is that is just not gonna

99
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 1: get it done. You know, Yes, I like the bit

100
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: of pop with him right four p thirty four on

101
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 1: the slugging a one hundred WRC plus it's around league average,

102
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 1: but you know, not the worst guy out there. You know,

103
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: I wouldn't hate having someone like him on the team.

104
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 1: He's still only twenty six years old. But you know,

105
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 1: for this trade for Willy or Bray you and I'm

106
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you, And this is not if

107
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: anyone from the outside of Red Sox Land is watching this, listen,

108
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: I'm not heavily gonna I'm not gonna put heavy bias

109
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 1: on Red Sox players. I'm gonna go right down the middle.

110
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: Here's the thing with Willier, He's got former years of control,

111
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 1: He's got power upside himself. So it's like kind of

112
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: like you know, Edgroquero Sosa. You're getting some decent offense,

113
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: but you already have good offense here with will your

114
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: brave so I don't you know? Sure, yes, you know, logistically,

115
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: could this make some sense where you're clearing from that

116
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: outfield surplus a little bit to add someone in the infield, Yes,

117
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: I could see it from that point of view. But offensively,

118
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: I'd actually say the Red Sox could be making themselves worse,

119
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 1: even though you know you are getting some some offensive

120
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: production there from Queroso so but I'd rather hang on

121
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: to willyer at that point. Now, you know, if you're

122
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 1: the White Sox. You know, could this be something where

123
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 1: you involve Kyle Teel, You know, you get a little

124
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,359
Speaker 1: bit more there. But then again, you know Catcher, you know,

125
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: if you did Kyle Teal, I don't know. So said

126
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: to me, it's he's not really moving the needle all

127
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: that much. I mean, listen, I'll say this, if we

128
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: had an opportunity to bring Chase Mydraff back, I'd actually

129
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: I'd at least turn my head a little bit. Big

130
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,479
Speaker 1: fan of Chase my Draft. I love that guy. I was.

131
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 1: I was very excited for him. But I think he's

132
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: gonna end up having a really solid career with the

133
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: White Sox. But I don't see them giving him up anyway.

134
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: I don't really see this happening. I could see the

135
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: White Sox looking for someone for right field. They traded

136
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: Luis Robert, they got Louis Salt and Halicunya back to

137
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: play center field. Now, so you know, you could use

138
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: another outfielder out there, and with the White Sox, you

139
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: know young team will Youer I think would fit. It's

140
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: funny because we talked about will your and you know,

141
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: possible White Sox proposals last year when it came to

142
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 1: Garrett Crochet and yeah, I don't see this one happening.

143
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: You know, maybe if you did something like Kyle Teal,

144
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 1: but I think you'd need to definitely add more than Sosa. Unfortunately,

145
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: I just don't think the plate discipline is very good

146
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: with Lenine Sosa. So moving on to the next one.

147
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: What do we got here? What do we got I'm

148
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: gonna make sure I'm gonna be clicking out of the

149
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: tabs here so that way I can keep my self organized.

150
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: We got a couple of Cubs trades here, A couple

151
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: of Cubs trades. I think you know who I'm talking about.

152
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: We got Nico Horner coming up, and we got this

153
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: from Blake Coell x over on X Nico Horner for

154
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: Connolly Early, straight up one for one classic deal. But listen,

155
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: unfortunately this is uh yeah, I'm not doing this. Listen.

156
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: I love Nico Horner. I would love to have Nico

157
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: Horner as a member of the Boston Red Sox. I

158
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: really would. I'd love for the for the Red Sox

159
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: to be able to find a way to get that done.

160
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: But I'm not giving up a whole lot of control

161
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: with Connolly Early. With Early, you gotta remember, you know,

162
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 1: he didn't even hit that the amount of playing time

163
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 1: to tap into one year of service time, so he

164
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 1: still has six years of control. I'm not giving up

165
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: six years guaranteed of Connolly Early for one year of

166
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: Nico Horner. I'm just not doing it. We can't be

167
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,679
Speaker 1: doing this. That wouldn't be responsible. You know, sure, if

168
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: you're looking at it from talent wise, if you're factoring

169
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 1: out all of the years of control, the salaries and everything.

170
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: If you're just looking at it from a talent point

171
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: of view, I mean, yeah, maybe, but you got Horner

172
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: for one year, you know, so I don't really see that.

173
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: I'd love for the Red Sox to do something for Horner. Now,

174
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: what I think is a bit more realistic instead of

175
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: Connolly Early. I think this is where you could do.

176
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 1: It comes down to, Okay, you're getting Horner for one year, right,

177
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: so what are you willing to give up? That is

178
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: both good and you're going to be okay in the

179
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: long run giving that up. Right. You take a look

180
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: at the Yankees when they made the move for Juan Sota, right,

181
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, you give up someone like a Michael King,

182
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 1: very good, But the Yankees. You know, look at where

183
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: they're at now, where they're starting pitching, They're just fine,

184
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,839
Speaker 1: all right. They ended up being all right. You take

185
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 1: a look at you know, the U for Kyle Tucker

186
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: with the Cubs, right, they give up Esoch Paratus and

187
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: Cam Smith. You know, for the Cubs. You look at

188
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 1: kind of the way things shook out there, they're okay,

189
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: you know. So those are the players you give up,

190
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: ones that you feel like they're not going to be

191
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: a part of your long term future to where you

192
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: can stomach it. Now, who on the Red Sox could

193
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: be in that scenario, Well, this is where I'm maybe

194
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 1: looking at someone like maybe Brian Bao. You know, I

195
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: think Bao is going to have more trade value than

196
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 1: Horner four years of control, middle of the rotation guy. Yeah,

197
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: that would be that would be a little tough giving

198
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: up Bao, But you kind of look at your long

199
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 1: term situation. If you feel like you're okay without Bao

200
00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 1: moving forward, then maybe even then that's still a bit

201
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: of a stretch. I think something a bit more fair

202
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: would be. Like it sounds crazy because you know, to

203
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: say Cutter Crawford for Nico Horner, I mean that that

204
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 1: doesn't sound right. But if you're looking at it from

205
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 1: a from the years of control, the salaries, you know,

206
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: Crawford value wise matches up a little bit more talent wise.

207
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 1: I mean, that wouldn't look great. Nico Horner for Cutter Crawford.

208
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 1: It just doesn't sound right. You know, maybe you could

209
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 1: do Cutter Crawford, you know, a couple of prospects or so.

210
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,560
Speaker 1: That's why I feel like Bao because he still has

211
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: that that name value. He does have that upside. If

212
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,840
Speaker 1: you were to do a bit of an overpay, I

213
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: could see something like that, you know, but I don't

214
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 1: know to me, if you were able to get someone

215
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: like Horner for say, you know, let's say you did

216
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: Cutter Crawford, maybe include you know, prospect or too. But

217
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 1: I don't think the Cubs would do that. I think

218
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: they would rather hang on to Nico because of how

219
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 1: good of a player he is. So that's kind of

220
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: where I'm at now. If if we're going to go

221
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 1: to a bit more of a crazier trade here, well,

222
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 1: I mean you got to take a look at this

223
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: one from Tom. What do we got here from Tom?

224
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 1: He's got a big old trade here. Brian Bao, Mikey Romero,

225
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: Justin Gonzalez, Connor Wong, Shane Drohan for Nico Horner, Carson Kelly. Well,

226
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 1: I don't see the Cubs giving up Carson Kelly. You know, sure,

227
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 1: value wise, maybe that you know that's lining up a

228
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 1: little differently, but I don't know about that one. I

229
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: don't think the Cubs are gonna give up Carson Kelly.

230
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: Now let's move on here to Nico Horner's teammate, Matt Shaw.

231
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: I've talked about Matt Shaw. I think there's a bit

232
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: of intrigue with Shaw there. Yes, you would like to

233
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 1: see more floor up to this point. He did have

234
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 1: a good second half. Granted, his numbers dipped in September,

235
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: but after he came back from the miners, they had

236
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: him work on a couple of things. He made some

237
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 1: adjustments and he looked a lot better. You know, rookie

238
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 1: season though we've seen time and time again. You know, listen,

239
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: real life, this is an MLB the show. You know,

240
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, Yes, you could have

241
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 1: a good you know what the good number grade on

242
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: MLB the show next to the player, and then they're

243
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: gonna give you the nice good results there on a

244
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: video game, but in real life, you know you're handling

245
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 1: the riggers of the Major League. So the first time Shaw,

246
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: you know, high upside guy coming up, coming out of

247
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: the miners, basically with with the Cubs on Opening Day,

248
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: you know, he took his bumps, he took his licks,

249
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 1: and he showed some good things. I do look at

250
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: the upside of someone like Shaw, and I am intrigued

251
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 1: by it. Gives me pejroy of vibes, not fully a

252
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 1: little bit, just the dirt dog kind of a player.

253
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 1: You'd have him for five years. I think, you know,

254
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: right handed bat, he showed some good pull last year.

255
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: I think he's a good overall hitter. He's athletic, he's

256
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 1: got some decent speed. He can play, played very well

257
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: defensively at second base or third base, wherever you wanted

258
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 1: to put him. Matt Shaw is intriguing to me. Now.

259
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 1: This trade, though, I do think, comes up short. In

260
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: return for Matt Shaw, the Cubs get Kyle Harrison, Mikey Romero,

261
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: and Juan Valeria. I mean, I don't see why the

262
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 1: Cubs would want to do this. I just can't see it,

263
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 1: because you need more than that. You need more upside

264
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: than that. You know, Kyle Harrison, sure higher prospect a

265
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: couple of years ago, maybe a couple of years ago

266
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 1: that maybe something like that could be on the right track.

267
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: But with Harrison, he hasn't fully figured it out at

268
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 1: the major league level yet. Mikey Romero, you know, he

269
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 1: still has to show a couple of things. Showed some

270
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: pretty good pop last year, but he needs to work

271
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: on the plate discipline a little bit more. There is

272
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 1: some upside, but needs to show a bit more. Juan Valera,

273
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 1: you know, you shot up the system last year. There

274
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: is some upside with him still a bit further away, though,

275
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 1: So I think this package it's very weak. Going back

276
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: to the Cubs. I hate to say it, and this

277
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: is a part of me feels like Shaw is not

278
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 1: even gonna be possible because I feel like you're gonna

279
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: have to give up someone like totally or early. I

280
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 1: hate to say that. I think that's what the Cubs

281
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: are gonna want. I think they're gonna want high upside pitching.

282
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: They're already set in the field, right You're set in

283
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: the outfield, you know, could you possibly include like some

284
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: outfield prospects? They do have some guys coming up on

285
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: free agency. I don't know. Infield wise, they're set, and

286
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: you know, if they end up trading Shaw, I would

287
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 1: imagine they would do whatever they could to extend Horner.

288
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: That's another caveat to this. It's like, well, if you

289
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: trade Shaw, well, then if Horder ends up leaving, well

290
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 1: then you got nothing. Right. I know they got a

291
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: couple other guys there, like you know, Triantos for example.

292
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 1: But I don't know. I just I don't really. I

293
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 1: don't really see the Cubs doing something for Shaw unless

294
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: they get a Horner extincsion done or they feel very

295
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: good about it. Still, you kind of want to get

296
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: something like that done before giving up a player like Shaw,

297
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 1: and just you'd have to give up a high upside

298
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: arm in my opinion, like Early. All right. I don't know, man,

299
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: I think the Red Sox they want to hang on

300
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: to both totally and Early. I just don't see. I

301
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 1: don't see them giving them up easily at all. I

302
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: think it would take a lot. Could Shaw be a

303
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 1: possibility maybe, I don't know, though, we will see. We

304
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 1: will see about that. And I believe we had another

305
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: one here. Nope, that was it. That was it for

306
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 1: the Cubs trade proposals, we do have a super chat here.

307
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: What do we got going on here in the chat?

308
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: Thank you for joining me here today, ladies and gentlemen.

309
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: Scottie Boy four five? Do you like Aber for my Yanks? Well,

310
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 1: the problem is where is he gonna ply? You know,

311
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: you've already got everything pretty much set. I don't like

312
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 1: him at shortstop. I mean, Anthony Volpi, I know he

313
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: had his issues last year, but Abrams is not gonna

314
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 1: be better for you defensively at shortstop. I think he's

315
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 1: gonna be more second base. But you already got Jazz,

316
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 1: you got Ryan McMahon a third I don't know. I

317
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: just don't see logistically where it would work. And Abram's

318
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: a shortstop, I don't know about that. For the Yankees.

319
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: Could I see the Yankees maybe looking to make some

320
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 1: kind of a move before the end of the offseason.

321
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 1: Maybe I could see something like maybe they go after school.

322
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 1: We'll see. All right, let's get to the next trade here. Everyone,

323
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 1: while I'm pulling up the next trade, hit that subscribe

324

325
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 1: and if you can hit the like button for me.

326
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: Alrighty so I believe we had a couple of Atlanta

327
00:17:54,359 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 1: Braves trade proposals and we got another big team account.

328
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 1: Over on x bean eater Buzz, speaking of Cutter Crawford,

329
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: he says, here, how about knock Show Alvarez for Cutter Crawford.

330
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, I'm a big fan of knock Show Alvarez.

331
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 1: I think there is some upside there. And also, I mean,

332
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 1: what a fantastic name. People in Boston would love someone

333
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: like that if their name was a knock Show I mean,

334
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 1: my goodness, So it might be one of the best

335
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: nicknames all in all sports, the best names in all

336
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 1: of sports. The problem is, I just don't see this

337
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: one really happening. The problem is is, uh, you know,

338
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: when it comes to knock Show, he still needs to

339
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 1: show I think a little bit more here. He's not

340
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: gonna have a whole lot of value at this point.

341
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 1: He still needs to show. You know, last year he

342
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 1: played in fifty eight games, he hit two thirty four

343
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 1: ops wasn't really anything WRC plus at a seventy six.

344
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: He has shown good numbers in them. But even if

345
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: you take a look at last year, if triple A,

346
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 1: you know, he didn't really do all that much. You know,

347
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 1: he doesn't really hit for a whole lot of power.

348
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: He's shown good on base ability in the minor leagues, absolutely,

349
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 1: I mean, if you take a look, I mean, go

350
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 1: back in twenty twenty four, he had a three to

351
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: ninety one on base. He's got a little bit of

352
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: a pop, like ten home runs, but not really all

353
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: that much he's got. He's got athleticism as well. He'll

354
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,679
Speaker 1: give you good defense, you know, right handed bat. I

355
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: don't know, I feel like this is not the guy

356
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: the Red Sox would want to go after personally. And

357
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 1: you know, if you're giving up Cutter Crawford, I mean

358
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 1: I don't think that's really I don't know. I think

359
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: you'd rather hang on to Crawford at that point. You know,

360
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 1: with Crawford, he's got a few years of control left,

361
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,919
Speaker 1: a guy that you know can give you solid major

362
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: league innings. More back into the rotation innings, but still

363
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 1: it's major league innings at the end of the day.

364
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 1: I think you would need to put a lot more

365
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 1: with not show Alvarez. Now, if we're taking a look

366
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 1: here at another trade proposal when it comes to the Braves,

367
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 1: how about Ozzy Alby's, Ozzi Alby's. You might be thinking,

368
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: Ozzie Alby's, why would the Braves want to trade Ozzy Alby's. Well,

369
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: I agree, I don't think the Braves are gonna be

370
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:25,400
Speaker 1: trading Ozzi Alby's. However, you know, if we're looking here

371
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: at a possible trade going back to the Braves in

372
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: this scenario would be Christian Campbell and Miguel Blaze. Actually,

373
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,919
Speaker 1: value wise, it does line up pretty close. And you

374
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: might be thinking, Ozzie Alby's here on Baseball Trade Values

375
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 1: only has a seven million dollar median surplus. You might

376
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 1: be thinking, all right, BTV, that website is garbage. What

377
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 1: are you talking about. Well, here's the problem with Ozzy.

378
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 1: The numbers have dipped over the last couple of years. Now.

379
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 1: Yes he has that name value, but when you look

380
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 1: at the numbers, wasn't amazing last year? Still it was

381
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 1: it was all right, I mean, well, I don't even

382
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: want to say, all right, he hit two forty on

383
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: base at a three zero six, slugging at a three

384
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: sixty five eighty seven on the WRC, plus sixteen home

385
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: runs is okay, but you know, overall just not really

386
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 1: a whole lot. Now, yes, if you go back to

387
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three, I mean, yeah, he had a great

388
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:27,919
Speaker 1: season that year. Hit two eighty on base at a

389
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 1: three thirty six, slugging at a five thirteen WRC plus

390
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 1: at a one to twenty five, thirty three homers, thirteen

391
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: stolen bases. Yeah, I mean, if you get that kind

392
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,120
Speaker 1: of production, that's pretty good. But over the last couple

393
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,120
Speaker 1: of years, you know, he had some injuries in twenty

394
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,439
Speaker 1: twenty four, I believe I can't remember it. Did he

395
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 1: did he fracture his forearm or is something in the leg?

396
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 1: I can't remember, but he did miss significant time. He

397
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 1: only played ninety nine games. The slugging went down one

398
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:02,119
Speaker 1: hundred points WRC plus to a ninety six. He had

399
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 1: ten home runs. So again, the last couple of years

400
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: haven't really shown you all that much. So that's where

401
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: you know it's gonna hinder his projections moving forward. Right

402
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,400
Speaker 1: you know, he's projected for a little over a four

403
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 1: hundred slugging next year, right around a league average WRC plus.

404
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 1: You'll get the job done defensively, you know, he's switched hitter.

405
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,159
Speaker 1: You know, maybe you can get something going there femway

406
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,199
Speaker 1: when he bats on the right side. I don't know.

407
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 1: To me, I think the Red Sox, just because of

408
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: the numbers over the last couple of years with him,

409
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 1: I think they would rather hang on to Christian Campbell

410
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: at that point, because obviously you have him signed up

411
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: to a very long term deal. Miguel Blace. You know,

412
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,160
Speaker 1: I do wonder if they end up, you know, putting

413
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: him in some kind of a trade at some point

414
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: he just hasn't really been able to get himself going.

415
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: I don't know, I see the idea, because but I

416
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: think Ozzie at this point he needs to get back

417
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 1: to what he was doing. And I think for the Braves,

418
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 1: you know, he means a lot of that franchise, He

419
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 1: means a lot of that city. They love him there.

420
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 1: I don't really see this trade happening. I see the

421
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,199
Speaker 1: thinking behind it, though, I see the thinking behind it.

422
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 1: What else we got here? What else we got? All? Right?

423
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,360
Speaker 1: Moving on? Here we go? We got the play Tessie,

424
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: guys joining the show from Sammy Jones. I mean, look

425
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 1: at this nice graphic. I mean, how could you not

426
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 1: like this trade? I mean, look how nice that looks?

427
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 1: My goodness? I mean, of course you gotta say oh man, oh,

428
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 1: I like this already. We can look at this picture.

429
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: I know if you're listening on podcast that you can't

430
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 1: see it. But here's the trade, Ezekiel Tavar going to

431
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 1: the Red Sox from the Colorado Rockies and back to Colorado.

432
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:53,119
Speaker 1: You got Juan Valeria, you got Justin Gonzalez and Tyler Uberstein.

433
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: Now I've been seeing people talking about Ezekiel Tavar. Let's

434
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,119
Speaker 1: pull up Ezekiel Tavar for before we actually look at

435
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: the trade. So here's my problem with Tavar. I'm just

436
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 1: I don't like the highest strikeout rate twenty five percent,

437
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: only a five percent walk rate last year. Sure, you

438
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,119
Speaker 1: know he has shown some pop before twenty six home runs,

439
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,440
Speaker 1: but he had some injuries last year that went back

440
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 1: down to nine. So I think went healthy. I think,

441
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, well, also one big caveat here.

442
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: Half of the season is at corps Field, so we

443
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: got to take that into consideration. So I don't know

444
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: on the road, could he be like a fifteen twenty

445
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 1: home run, you know, kind of a guy of you

446
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 1: half a season at Fmway Park. I don't know. He's

447
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: got the right handed swing, Maybe he can do something

448
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:50,360
Speaker 1: with the monster there. I believe he is more of

449
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:54,120
Speaker 1: a hold on. Let me before I say that he's

450
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,639
Speaker 1: a poll hitter, let me actually pull up stat cast

451
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: because I have not looked at that well. Actually, if

452
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: you look here, let's go back to twenty twenty four

453
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: when he hit all those home runs. Okay, so back

454
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, he did have a lot of

455
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: home runs to the polls side, so you know, maybe

456
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: there could be something there. When it came to the metrics, though,

457
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 1: they were pretty middle of the road. So that's where

458
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:20,919
Speaker 1: you kind of wonder did Corsfield really help him out?

459
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 1: You know, he had a sixty percent barrel rate, but

460
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 1: exit v low, hard hit percentags were pretty middle of

461
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: the road. And then the last year the expected batting

462
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,720
Speaker 1: average looked okay, the expected slugging looked okay, but again,

463
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: you know, hard hit percentage down to thirty one percent,

464
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: you know, pretty middle of the road batted ball. But

465
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,719
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the plate discipline with him. It's just

466
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 1: not great. He strikes out a ton, he swings and

467
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: misses a ton. However, the big thing you might be saying,

468
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 1: Robbie your do fist, can you point out the good

469
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,919
Speaker 1: thing with Tavar, Well, the best thing about Tavar is

470
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 1: the defense. He's an excellent defender out there. So you

471
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: know last year he hit a zero point eight f

472
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 1: four and most of that came from his defense. He's

473
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:11,120
Speaker 1: been one of the best defenders in the game. This

474
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:17,199
Speaker 1: is where, again, on paper, I can understand it, but

475
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 1: I think realistically, I don't see it happening. And what

476
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 1: I'm about to say might sound crazy. Buckle your buns,

477
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:31,400
Speaker 1: but I don't see the Rockies wanting to trade Tavar.

478
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 1: You might be thinking, well, Robbie, it's the Rockies. They're garbage,

479
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 1: They're terrible, they stink. They gotta get out of here,

480
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 1: sell the franchise, my goodness, but it is their shortstop.

481
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 1: It's their everyday shortstop. You build your team around your

482
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,639
Speaker 1: shortstop for the most part, right that's the position you

483
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,400
Speaker 1: want to start with. Tavar is a good defender there.

484
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 1: It's not very often you get a great defender like Tavar.

485
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 1: And yes, it is the Rockies, but their goal is

486
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: to get back to winning baseball. And I think personally,

487
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 1: you know the fact that they signed him to this

488
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 1: long term deal, I don't see the Rockies really wanting

489
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: to give him up, and you know, sure they'd be

490
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: getting a couple of, you know, decent prospects. Justin Gonzalez.

491
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,120
Speaker 1: He's got some good upside there. Jan Valaier just mentioned earlier. Yeah,

492
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 1: I mean he definitely showed some things last year. Tyler

493
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 1: Ruberstein decent pitching prospect. I just I don't know. I

494
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 1: just don't see this one really happening. I think for

495
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: me personally, I don't. I like Tavar's defense. I think

496
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: that could be interesting if you put him in that

497
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,360
Speaker 1: middle in field. That's another thing that comes up. Though,

498
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 1: Story's your shortstop. We can all sit here and look

499
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:42,880
Speaker 1: at the numbers, but at the end of the day,

500
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: Trevor Story, he's the veteran. He's got that seniority, right,

501
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:51,120
Speaker 1: It's kind of just like a it's like an unwritten rule, right,

502
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 1: you know, Story, he did so much last year for

503
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 1: the Red Sox. I think the only way he's gonna

504
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,679
Speaker 1: move off that position if he is just really stinking

505
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 1: up to and he did. You know, sure the metrics

506
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: didn't look amazing, but you got to remember a lot

507
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: of that came from September. I don't know, I don't

508
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 1: see story moving off shortstop. Again. Again, you can look

509
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 1: at the numbers, but it's kind of one of those

510
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 1: things like he obviously knows how to play the position.

511
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 1: He's got the instincts for the position performance wise. Yeah,

512
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 1: you can make an argument, but I don't see story

513
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: moving off short So if you brought into var I mean,

514
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: he'd be your second baseman in my opinion. But then

515
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: you look at that, you're like, well, he should be

516
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,119
Speaker 1: your shortstop. So it's like, eh, I get there's so

517
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,159
Speaker 1: many like little things that don't fully line up to me.

518
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: I understand the premise of it. I just don't think

519
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 1: it becomes a reality personally. That's just me. I'm sorry,

520
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 1: play Tessie. Please do not hate me, because I love

521
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 1: you guys. All right, So, what else we got moving

522
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 1: on here? I know we had a super chat here.

523
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: Let me actually get to that super chat before I

524
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,719
Speaker 1: forget about it? Jack, what is going on? How are

525
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 1: we doing? In four nine? Red Sox should trade for

526
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: Donovan and Herrera and give back Harrison plus prospects. Cardinals

527
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: have insane depth at catcher. Well, Jack, it's funny you

528
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 1: mentioned that because we do have a Cardinals trade coming

529
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 1: up here. You know what, We're gonna make a pivot

530
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 1: because the next one I was gonna do was one

531
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: with the Cincinnati Reds. But you know what, since you

532
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 1: just dropped that super chat, I mean, we got a

533
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: pivot now to the Cardinals. Let's stay on the conversation now.

534
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 1: You said Donovan and Herrera, the Red Sox have been

535
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 1: looking for They have been looking for an upgrade at catcher,

536
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 1: for backup catcher Herrera. I don't know if the Cardinals

537
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: are gonna give him up at this point. He's just

538
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: very good with that batman. I don't know if the

539
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 1: car especially with all the control he has and you know,

540
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 1: the ability to play catcher if they need him to.

541
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 1: I don't see them giving him up at this point.

542
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: He was brought up last year. I don't really see

543
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: it this time though. But I'll tell you right now,

544
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 1: Donovan and Herrera Harrison for Harrison in prospects, you'd have

545
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 1: to give a lot of good prospects in that deal.

546
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: Harrison does not move the needle all that much. Like

547
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier, he just hasn't fully taken that step

548
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 1: forward at the major league level, so it's gonna hinder

549
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 1: his value. But we got this trade proposal. Thank you

550
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: for the superchat, my friend, do appreciate that. What do

551
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 1: we got from j David Reid, Brendan Donovan, JJ Romero

552
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 1: and Jimmy Crooks for Christian Campbell and Kyle Harrison? Spoiler

553
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: alert if you haven't noticed already, Kyle Harrison's gonna be

554
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: popping up in a lot of these proposals. I hate

555
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: to be the bearer of bad news, but this one

556
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 1: I actually like the package that the Red Sox would

557
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: be getting. The package back to the Cardinals is not

558
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 1: enough at the end of the day, and I don't

559
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 1: think the Red Sox is gonna go up Christian Campbell. Also,

560
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 1: Christian Campbell is mentioned in a lot of these trades.

561
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 1: I don't think Christian Campbell's going anywhere. I don't see

562
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: that happening. However, could the Red Sox pull off something

563
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: for Donovan, Romero and someone like Jimmy Crooks? You know

564
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: it's interesting, right pulling up the trade here just so

565
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 1: you can see. Yeah, as you can see here, we're

566
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 1: very far apart, ladies and gentlemen. You know, Brandon Donovan,

567
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: he's got two years of control, but very good projections

568
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 1: not making a ton of money. So when you combine

569
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 1: all that, you gotta get a nice, juicy surplus value.

570
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 1: Jojo Romero, Yeah, left handed believer. The Red Sox have

571
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 1: been looking for a left handed believer. He checks off

572
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: the box. Jimmy Crooks getting pretty close to major league ready,

573
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 1: let me actually pull up here. Jimmy Crooks one of

574
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 1: the many, many catchers in the Cardinals system. Now, he

575
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: did have a cup of coffee last year fifteen games overall,

576
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: I mean, he didn't really show much in the miners

577
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: down at Triple A last year. Hit two seventy four,

578
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 1: three thirty seven on bays, four forty one on the

579
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: slugging a one oh five WRC. Plus. He's a left

580
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: handed bat, so you kind of wonder, Okay, you know,

581
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 1: maybe you could have a lefty catcher to go with

582
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 1: the righty caxture in Carlos Nirvas, right, So you have

583
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:24,479
Speaker 1: a bit of a bit of a platoon there with Crooks.

584
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 1: He's gonna be excellent defensively, That's what I That's what

585
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 1: I like about him. He is going to give you

586
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 1: some good defense back there, definitely. So I feel like

587
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: he could be someone possibly realistic because again the Cardinals

588
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,719
Speaker 1: have a lot of catchers over there. I think they

589
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 1: got five major league ready catchers? Is it four or five?

590
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 1: Can't fully remember. They got a lot, maybe not major

591
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,560
Speaker 1: league ready, but I know they got at least three

592
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: that are major league ready. So you know, Crooks, you got,

593
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: you got Pahez over there, obviously Herrera. You know, could

594
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 1: Crooks end up being you know, a backup option for them,

595
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 1: you know, but but you got, you got Uel Poso.

596
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, there is a lot you got

597
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 1: Leonardo Bernall as well. I think Bernal He's not gonna

598
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 1: be as good defensively as Crooks, but he's still gonna

599
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 1: be pretty solid. So, you know, again, getting back to

600
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: the trade itself, I you know, think this package could

601
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 1: be pretty realistic overall. I don't think the package going

602
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 1: back to the Cardinals, though, is realistic. So let's work

603
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 1: on this one. I don't think Christian Campbell's gonna go anywhere.

604
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: And also, yes, this would be yet another trade with

605
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 1: the Saint Louis Cardinals. I'll talk about Burdonovan here in

606
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 1: a second, but with Kyle Harrison, I honestly think you

607
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: would probably have to give up. I think the Cardinals

608
00:33:56,160 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 1: would ask possibly for Franklin Arius. Now, I know they

609
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 1: got JJ Weatherhole coming up. You know they got guys, right,

610
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:09,839
Speaker 1: you got you got Gorman over there, you got Sahesi,

611
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 1: you got Mason Winn obviously, so they got a lot

612
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,359
Speaker 1: of infielders. So I don't I don't know if they

613
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: would want Franklinarius. I mean, he's definitely a he's ranking

614
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,800
Speaker 1: very well. When it comes to you know, the prospect

615
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,880
Speaker 1: rankings out there, a lot of them are getting updated.

616
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,800
Speaker 1: I feel like you would really be looking to I

617
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 1: think the Cardinals are just looking to add pitching. I

618
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: think him is really trying to stock up on pitching.

619
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: So you know, I've talked about Arius before. But then again,

620
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 1: I forget, they also got a lot of infielders there,

621
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 1: so you know, could you maybe you know, I hate

622
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: to say it, but you know, someone like Kyson Witherspoon,

623
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 1: you know, highly touted prospect, first round pick last year,

624
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,319
Speaker 1: you know, could you do something around him? I've seen

625
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 1: someone there was another trade proposal I saw Jaron Duran

626
00:34:56,480 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: going back to the Cardinals. It's an interesting thought, you know,

627
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 1: it is because the Cardinals, here's the thing, sure, they're

628
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 1: kind of resetting things a little bit. But you know,

629
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: you wonder how far away are they actually, you know,

630
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 1: could it be a year? And then you got you know,

631
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 1: you have three years of Duran and obviously him knows

632
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: Duran very well. Could you do something there maybe? And listen,

633
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 1: I think the Cardinals have a lot of talent. I

634
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't think Duran would be someone you

635
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 1: would send back in that kind of a deal. That's

636
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 1: just me. But uh, I don't know. You know, I've

637
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,920
Speaker 1: seen someone else mention Brian Bao, you know, a guy

638
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 1: that's got four years of control there, you know, So

639
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 1: could you do something around I don't know, I don't

640
00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:49,840
Speaker 1: think the Red Sox would give up this much major

641
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 1: league ready depth. I could see them since they brought

642
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 1: in Suarez, maybe giving up one more, you know, So

643
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: could someone like Bao be expendable possibly? Could you work

644
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:05,400
Speaker 1: a package around him? You know, Bao gives them a

645
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,240
Speaker 1: you know, pretty solid arm for the rotation there. Maybe

646
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: you send back someone like Henry Godbout who I'm actually

647
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 1: pretty excited about him. He looked very good last year

648
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:20,279
Speaker 1: in a very small sample. You know, maybe someone like him,

649
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: you know, could you send back Justin Gonzalez in this

650
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 1: kind of a deal. Let me put him in here.

651
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:33,360
Speaker 1: Where's there he is? You know, so a couple of bats.

652
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: Brian Bao gives them a major league ready arm for

653
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 1: Brendan Donovan, Jojo Romero and Jimmy Crooks. You know, it's interesting.

654
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 1: I wonder if realistically that would get it done, but

655
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 1: I maybe you could be on the right track with this.

656
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 1: But getting back to the point though, I like the

657
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:58,719
Speaker 1: package coming back to the Red Sox because I do

658
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 1: think it checks off a lot of I like Donovan

659
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 1: for the Red Sox in some ways. Yes, left handed bat,

660
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,240
Speaker 1: you I feel like you'd rather have a right handed

661
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 1: bat because then you're starting to get loaded up on

662
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: all the lefties again. But here's the thing. You kind

663
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 1: of wonder if they get a second baseman, you know,

664
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 1: and then you got Meyer at third. If they get

665
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 1: a right handed second basement, well what's happening with romy

666
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:28,400
Speaker 1: at that point? Because Romey is your righty, you know,

667
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 1: and you got Wilson Contreras at first base. So where's

668
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 1: Romy playing if you have a right handed second baseman,

669
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,720
Speaker 1: So you know, if you get Esak Paratus for third,

670
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 1: and then Meyer's playing second, and then that works out right.

671
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 1: You got Romey and the righty and Meyer the lefty.

672
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,400
Speaker 1: And I could see Meyer maybe getting you know, the

673
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 1: platoon treatment this year, so I could see that. But Donovan,

674
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: if you bring him in for second base, well, he's

675
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 1: the lefty bat. He doesn't hit righties very well, and

676
00:37:58,160 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 1: he's got a whole lot of versatility. I could see

677
00:37:59,920 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 1: the Red Sox liking that, and romy can get in

678
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 1: against the lefties. So there are advantages to Brendan Donovan.

679
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of Brendan Donovan. I am high

680
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 1: contact bat, gritty player. I really like him. You'd definitely

681
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 1: be looking for power, of course, you know Wilson Contreras.

682
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,040
Speaker 1: You know what's he gonna give you in the fourth spot.

683
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 1: Can Roman Anthony really bump it up with the power?

684
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,279
Speaker 1: You know? Can Story? Is he going to replicate what

685
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 1: he did this past year? Willier? Can he take a

686
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,879
Speaker 1: step forward with the power? You know? Meyer? Of course,

687
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 1: I think he's got good pop there. I think he

688
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:39,720
Speaker 1: has a chance at twenty home runs. So you know, Donovan,

689
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 1: he's not gonna give you that, you know, ten home

690
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: runs last year, But he's an everyday player. He's very durable.

691
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,919
Speaker 1: I like Donovan a lot. I would not be mad

692
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 1: if the Red Sox got Donovan. It would be funny though,

693
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:56,359
Speaker 1: to have another trade with the Cardinals. All right, here

694
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,799
Speaker 1: we go. Let's move back to the Cincinnati Reds. Here's

695
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:05,439
Speaker 1: an interesting one. Here is an interesting one from oh

696
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 1: Patam Nouel v Marte for Tristan Cassas and Juan Valera.

697
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: This is an interesting one. So, you know, looking at

698
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:20,280
Speaker 1: the trade itself, you're I mean, you're actually getting pretty

699
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 1: close in terms of the values. I think the Reds

700
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,800
Speaker 1: would want more in this, the reason being, you know, listen,

701
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 1: Cassas does have the power upside, of course, but the

702
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 1: big injury that he had last year, will the injuries

703
00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 1: that he's had over the last couple of years that

704
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: is hindering his overall value. But they're still upside there,

705
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 1: so he's gonna give you a decent amount. Juan Valera

706
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 1: once again involved in a trade package. I would not

707
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:46,239
Speaker 1: be surprised if Juan Valera got dealt because you're kind

708
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:48,200
Speaker 1: of riding on a high with him. He's coming off

709
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 1: a great year. There's upside, there's stuff. But for nouelvi Marte,

710
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,839
Speaker 1: who did show some pretty good things. You know, yes,

711
00:39:54,880 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 1: he had the suspension, but you know, with Marte, I

712
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,840
Speaker 1: believe he had some injuries last year. I forget what exactly.

713
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:07,240
Speaker 1: He did have a pretty solid year, you know, honestly

714
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 1: decent year over ninety games at two sixty three, a

715
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,880
Speaker 1: four to forty eight on the slugging three hundred on

716
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 1: base could be a lot better on a one WRC

717
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 1: plus right around league average. Now with Marte, he definitely

718
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: has that, uh, that reputation of being a higher rank

719
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 1: prospect at one point. The one thing that kind of

720
00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:34,360
Speaker 1: irked me a little bit with Marte last year, the

721
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 1: metrics just weren't amazing. Had a ball profile in the Blues,

722
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 1: plate discipline in the Blues, a three percent walk rate.

723
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 1: It's ah, it's just it's not it's not it's not

724
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 1: inspiring me. There's upside, I think with him. You got

725
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:55,720
Speaker 1: to remember, though, Great American Ballpark hit her friendly park

726
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:57,880
Speaker 1: for half a season. That probably helped some of his

727
00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:02,239
Speaker 1: numbers a little bit. So I don't know, but right

728
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,319
Speaker 1: handed back, you know, maybe that could be a possibility.

729
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 1: But you know, for this trade, I don't know. I

730
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 1: think the Reds would want more here and I'm not

731
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: sure if the Red Sox would view Marte based off

732
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 1: the metrics as the answer that they're looking for, but

733
00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 1: I think it's a good outside the box trade proposal.

734
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,279
Speaker 1: Good outside the box proposal. Everybody, while I'm pulling up

735
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:26,240
Speaker 1: the next trade, if you can, hit the like button

736
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:28,319
Speaker 1: for me, and again, if you are new, hit that

737
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 1: subscribe button. All right, what's next. We're starting to wind

738
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 1: down a little bit here, starting to wind down, alrighty,

739
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 1: So we're gonna move on here. We did have Actually

740
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:47,280
Speaker 1: I believe this came over on the YouTube side because

741
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:50,879
Speaker 1: I did post over on the YouTube side, So I

742
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 1: think we had. We're gonna start getting into the astros

743
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:57,439
Speaker 1: a little bit. We have talked about the astros quite

744
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:03,880
Speaker 1: a bit. Uh man, you know what, Maybe it was

745
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 1: on Twitter. Might have been on Twitter. Also. While I'm

746
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: pulling this up. While I'm trying to find this, did

Speaker 1: Ard Bray, you, Jordan Hicks and cash back to the

757
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:58,160
Speaker 1: Red Sox. We got Essak Paratus, Miguel Ulola and Steve Okert.

758
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, we've talked about it, right, We have

759
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 1: talked about Esac Paratus here. Absolutely, I think he's a

760
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 1: great fit. I think that I think the Red Sox

761
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:11,760
Speaker 1: and the Astros are having a bit of a staring

762
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 1: contest here. We've gotten reports not too long ago the

763
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:19,359
Speaker 1: Astros they might not really be fancying Jaron Durant all

764
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 1: that much. We've got another report that, you know, more speculation.

765
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 1: Maybe Willier could be the guy for the Astros. Has

766
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 1: that familiarity from the Astros system. You know there's something

767
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:34,440
Speaker 1: there and obviously, yeah, power up. Here's the thing I

768
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:37,040
Speaker 1: said this last year about Willier too. I think people

769
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 1: other teams out there might prefer Willyer because he gives

770
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,399
Speaker 1: you that great defense and he's got that pop right Duran, Yes,

771
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 1: he's an electric player, but you know, metrics wise, it

772
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:53,240
Speaker 1: holds his projections get held back a little bit. Still

773
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:56,960
Speaker 1: solid projections for Duran moving forward. But with Willyer, I

774
00:43:56,960 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: think teams are a bit more intrigued with the side

775
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,840
Speaker 1: that he has and the years of control that he

776
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:07,480
Speaker 1: has at basically like a league minimum salary, you know.

777
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 1: So that's where I'm not surprised to see, you know,

778
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:13,399
Speaker 1: reports that the Astros you know, might be a bit

779
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,719
Speaker 1: more intrigued with Willier, but you know, to get I

780
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 1: think for Esac you might have to I don't know

781
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 1: it again, I think there's a bit of a staring contest.

782
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if they end up getting something done.

783
00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:31,760
Speaker 1: I think it makes too much sense. I think paratus

784
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,960
Speaker 1: because gives you that pull swing. The Astros obviously have

785
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:38,640
Speaker 1: a lot of infielders in the mix. I don't know, man,

786
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 1: you know, I'm kinda it just feels it just makes

787
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,359
Speaker 1: too much sense, just makes way too much sense. Even

788
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:50,480
Speaker 1: if he did something like this, you know, will you'er

789
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:55,680
Speaker 1: with Jordan Hicks for say, ESOC paratus and Bennett's susa real?

790
00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 1: Is it sosa susa? I'm going blank on the pronunciation,

791
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,959
Speaker 1: you know, But that's another, you know, a left handed

792
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:07,160
Speaker 1: reliever that you could bring back right. So, I don't

793
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 1: know here, you know, I just don't know what's going

794
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 1: on between these two teams. I think teams are just

795
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:16,239
Speaker 1: holding out as long as long as they can. I

796
00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 1: think the Red Sox and Astros they make too much

797
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:22,320
Speaker 1: sense as trade partners. But it's kind of one of

798
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,880
Speaker 1: the who's gonna blink first? Could other teams get involved?

799
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 1: You know? I could maybe see some other teams out

800
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,319
Speaker 1: there calling about paratus, you know, look out for a

801
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,720
Speaker 1: team like the San Diego Pog's Rays. You know, they're

802
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,359
Speaker 1: I think they could use another bat there. Now you've

803
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,759
Speaker 1: got Mandy mcshatto with a third base, but could you

804
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 1: have estoc play first, you know, and that could work

805
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,879
Speaker 1: possibly with the Pog's Rays, you know. So there's other

806
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 1: avenues out there where I think the Astros could go.

807
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: But the question is, I think the Red Sox they're

808
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 1: just holding a very high price on Duran and I

809
00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,360
Speaker 1: think they would rather hang on to Williar. So I

810
00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,319
Speaker 1: don't know, man, I'm I'm not sure what's going on

811
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,839
Speaker 1: here at the Red Sox and the Astros. But yeah,

812
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 1: I think if the Red Sox did deal either Duran

813
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:09,239
Speaker 1: or will you'er. You're gonna have to get more than

814
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 1: ESOC back. You're gonna have to get a package, you guys.

815
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:18,360
Speaker 1: I think Paratus a reliever. Maybe you could do you know,

816
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 1: a prospect like Kevin Alvarez or Walker Yannick. I don't know.

817
00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:24,239
Speaker 1: It would have to be more than ESOK. We've talked

818
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,840
Speaker 1: about this before, and I could see a scenario where

819
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 1: Jordan Hicks could go back in a deal, you know,

820
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,960
Speaker 1: because I would imagine the Red Sox. A part of

821
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:36,480
Speaker 1: me wonders if they would like to see what he

822
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:39,719
Speaker 1: could do with a fresh slate. But a part of

823
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,760
Speaker 1: me wonders if they would also look to just move

824
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,799
Speaker 1: the salary elsewhere. I mean, they basically took it back

825
00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 1: in the Raffi trade to help get it done, you know.

826
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 1: But he does have an electric arm, so I feel

827
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:54,240
Speaker 1: like maybe they could go either way. There. We'll see,

828
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:58,160
Speaker 1: but definitely look out for the Astros. Here's another interesting one.

829
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 1: We got two more here more. How about we go

830
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:05,360
Speaker 1: back to the Diamondbacks, shall we? And no, not for

831
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:12,319
Speaker 1: katel Marte. Not for kaatel Marte. How about hold on

832
00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 1: a second, I don't remember who I just I lost it.

833
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:18,799
Speaker 1: Someone posted this and now I can't I have the

834
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:25,640
Speaker 1: trade set up. Oh man, uh, this is embarrassing. I

835
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,759
Speaker 1: have lost it. I don't remember who posted this, and

836
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 1: I can't see it. Let me see. Can I find it?

837
00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:38,759
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm gonna be able to find it. Oh,

838
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:42,680
Speaker 1: here it is. I found it. Oh perfect, here it is.

839
00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:47,840
Speaker 1: The Red Sox receive Jordan Lawler from Red Sox slave

840
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:53,560
Speaker 1: the Diamondbacks. They get back Kyle Harrison and Patrick Sandoval.

841
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 1: What do you know, Kyle Harrison in another trade? Jordan

842
00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:04,560
Speaker 1: Lawler is interesting. The problem with Lawler, though, is he

843
00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,919
Speaker 1: just hasn't really shown all that much at the major

844
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:10,520
Speaker 1: league level. There was a time, one point, ladies and gentlemen.

845
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,040
Speaker 1: Once upon a time, I was wondering if the Red

846
00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:16,520
Speaker 1: Sox could take Jordan Lawler, and they ended up getting

847
00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 1: Marcelo Meyer, which no one expected him to go that

848
00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 1: low to the Red Sox, so I was thinking, Okay,

849
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:24,840
Speaker 1: maybe Jordan Lawler. I think there's a pot There was

850
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:27,440
Speaker 1: a world where the Red Sox didn't get Meyer, they

851
00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:30,120
Speaker 1: ended up taking Jordan Lawler. Could you imagine Lawler and

852
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:32,880
Speaker 1: Meyer on the same team in Boston that'd be funny.

853
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,560
Speaker 1: The problem with Lawler though, is he just hasn't really

854
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:41,040
Speaker 1: shown too much. You know, he he's had a lot

855
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:46,719
Speaker 1: of injuries. I believe he missed most of twenty He

856
00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:49,920
Speaker 1: only played twelve games in you know, he played twenty

857
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:53,120
Speaker 1: three games in twenty twenty four. I can't remember what

858
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 1: the injury was, something with the shoulder, if I remember correctly.

859
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 1: But last year tripa A. He did hit really well

860
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,840
Speaker 1: triple A last year had a five sixty four on

861
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,640
Speaker 1: the slugging, eleven homers, twenty stolen base. Is a guy

862
00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:08,360
Speaker 1: that's gonna give you pretty solid defense for the most part.

863
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:12,320
Speaker 1: But he's had some chances at the major league level.

864
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:14,920
Speaker 1: He just hasn't really been able to do much. You know,

865
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:18,600
Speaker 1: it's not a big sample. It's a little over forty games,

866
00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:21,239
Speaker 1: but it's just not really a whole lot going on.

867
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:24,879
Speaker 1: He's got upside, but the problem is he only has

868
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:30,600
Speaker 1: one option left. That's another problem. He's got one option left,

869
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:36,640
Speaker 1: so there is some roster risk with him. Right now.

870
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:39,160
Speaker 1: It's looking like he's gonna get some chances out in

871
00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 1: the outfield. You know, they're already set in the infield there,

872
00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:47,359
Speaker 1: right you got Marte obviously Perdomo Aeronato at third base now,

873
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 1: So that's kind of the thing I see the thinking

874
00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:52,879
Speaker 1: behind lawlerber again, I think the Red Sox would want

875
00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 1: more floor. I don't think this is the time to

876
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:59,279
Speaker 1: shoot for upside. I don't think that's this is the

877
00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:02,440
Speaker 1: time to do it. I like the idea, you know,

878
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:05,359
Speaker 1: of the Red Sox, like you know, let's say, you know,

879
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,600
Speaker 1: maybe a year ago, a couple of years ago, you know,

880
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:14,840
Speaker 1: maybe you know, I don't know. I don't think the

881
00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,040
Speaker 1: Diamondbacks would only want to get this back. You know,

882
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:21,800
Speaker 1: sure maybe on BTV his value is not very high.

883
00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:24,799
Speaker 1: But I think the Diamondbacks, I mean, I don't know.

884
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,399
Speaker 1: I don't know where they're at with him. I don't

885
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 1: know what they think about with him, because you are

886
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:33,800
Speaker 1: starting to run out of time, I think with Lawler,

887
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,440
Speaker 1: so I think part of them still hopes that, you know,

888
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:40,200
Speaker 1: he could still turn into something, but you're the clock

889
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:43,200
Speaker 1: is ticking a little bit. So I don't know. I

890
00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:45,719
Speaker 1: wonder where I feel like the Diamonbacks would want to

891
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 1: get a lot more back for him than just Kyle

892
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:51,279
Speaker 1: Harrison and Patrick Sandoval. That's another thing. What is going

893
00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:53,520
Speaker 1: on with Patrick Sandoval. I haven't heard one thing on him.

894
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:55,839
Speaker 1: Where where is he? Is he on a vacation with

895
00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:59,480
Speaker 1: Masa somewhere? I don't know what's going on. Speaking of,

896
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:03,520
Speaker 1: we had some guys showing up at at spring training already, Rangers.

897
00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 1: Suarez is already in Fort Myers. You got Brian Bay

898
00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:10,560
Speaker 1: already in Fort Myers. I believe Kyson Witherspoon is already there.

899
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:14,120
Speaker 1: I believe Anthony Ironson is already there. Guys are starting

900
00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 1: to show up, man. I love that. I love that mentality.

901
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:18,799
Speaker 1: I love these guys already getting to camp. I love

902
00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:23,280
Speaker 1: that Rangers already there. Here we go. We got one more,

903
00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:31,239
Speaker 1: one more proposal, and uh, we gotta go to the Nationals.

904
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 1: We gotta go to the Nationals from Mad King? Is

905
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:40,600
Speaker 1: it Tyler or Tylor? I can't remember, I don't remember.

906
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 1: I apologize, but we got this one. How about c

907
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:48,400
Speaker 1: J Abrams? CJ Abrams. I'm seeing a couple of people

908
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:53,040
Speaker 1: out there over on Twitter, over on ex Land saying,

909
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:56,080
Speaker 1: well why not CJ Abrams? Well, the Nationals they just

910
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: traded away Mackenzie Gore to the Rangers. Could you maybe

911
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:02,719
Speaker 1: do something for Abrams? Well, he's definitely available. Right. We

912
00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:05,719
Speaker 1: had a report not too long ago that the Giants

913
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:10,000
Speaker 1: were looking to make something happen for him. I guess

914
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:12,960
Speaker 1: they're weren't able to get something done. I don't know.

915
00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:16,880
Speaker 1: Abrams is gonna be pretty expensive because there is a

916
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:19,960
Speaker 1: lot of upside with him. He had a three point

917
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 1: one f wour last year. That's really good, and that's

918
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:28,640
Speaker 1: funny because that was with very bad defense over at shortstop.

919
00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:35,360
Speaker 1: Pretty terrible defensively over at shortstop. Yeah, he was not

920
00:52:35,520 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 1: very good over there. Out's above average. They were down

921
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:41,600
Speaker 1: the tubes, so people are thinking with Abrams more of

922
00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:44,400
Speaker 1: a second baseman moving forward. That's why I thought the

923
00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:46,680
Speaker 1: Giants could maybe be a good landing spot. So you've

924
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:51,880
Speaker 1: heard them connected for Donovan that obviously hasn't happened. So

925
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 1: maybe they can go after Abrams. Then we've got that report,

926
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:56,840
Speaker 1: But maybe Abrams can be a possibility for the Red Sox.

927
00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:59,800
Speaker 1: Now he's a lefty bat, But getting back to Donovan,

928
00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:04,800
Speaker 1: also a lefty bat. With Abrams, you are gonna get

929
00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,600
Speaker 1: some decent pop four thirty three on the slugging and

930
00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:12,359
Speaker 1: a ton of speed. I don't know if you're gonna

931
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:14,680
Speaker 1: get that, you know, the pop that he had in

932
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:18,239
Speaker 1: Washington That is also a pretty good ballpark for left

933
00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 1: handed hitters, I believe, So I don't think he's gonna

934
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 1: be able to do that at Family Park. You know,

935
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 1: maybe like I don't know, maybe ten to fifteen home runs.

936
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:31,360
Speaker 1: But a guy that you know, he's not gonna walk

937
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 1: a lot. I'm not a big fan of the plate

938
00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:36,720
Speaker 1: discipline with him. He's under right around a twenty percent

939
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:39,680
Speaker 1: strikeout rate over the last few years, with like a

940
00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:41,759
Speaker 1: little bit less. But a guy that you know, he's

941
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:45,400
Speaker 1: an electric player, he is gonna give you some good speed.

942
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:47,879
Speaker 1: It kind of reminds me of Duran in a way.

943
00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:49,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's really the best way to

944
00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:52,040
Speaker 1: put it, but uh, you know, if you look at here,

945
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:56,319
Speaker 1: he had thirty five doubles, five triples, kind of like

946
00:53:56,440 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 1: Duran light. Is that fair? Is that a fair comparison

947
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,759
Speaker 1: for CJ. Abrams? But he's also only twenty five years old,

948
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:08,000
Speaker 1: so you know, you do have something there now for

949
00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:13,480
Speaker 1: the trade itself. Unfortunately, I just don't see it because

950
00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:19,000
Speaker 1: this trade in particular because Bao. While he does have

951
00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:23,560
Speaker 1: good surplus value Christian Campbell, his stock has taken a

952
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:26,600
Speaker 1: hit over the last year. You know, it was this

953
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,840
Speaker 1: value here on Baseball Trade Values was a lot higher

954
00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:35,120
Speaker 1: back before the year began. And then obviously he had

955
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:38,719
Speaker 1: his struggles. So yeah, that value's really taking a hit.

956
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:41,520
Speaker 1: So I don't know, but you know, you kind of

957
00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:45,719
Speaker 1: think about it to Bony obviously he knows Christian Campbell well,

958
00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:49,880
Speaker 1: obviously knows Bao very well. I don't know. I feel

959
00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:52,799
Speaker 1: like for Abrams, though, I could see the Nationals being

960
00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:58,200
Speaker 1: intrigued with something like this to start it off. I

961
00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:00,800
Speaker 1: don't see the Red Sox giving up BA and Campbell

962
00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:05,720
Speaker 1: for Abrams, Who's gonna be pretty in my opinion, remind

963
00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,800
Speaker 1: you of Duran a lot. I think they're looking for,

964
00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:13,560
Speaker 1: you know, like Donovan. He's Donovan's different because he's gonna

965
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:15,920
Speaker 1: give you better defense. He's gonna give you a way

966
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 1: higher contact rate, He's not gonna strike out. Donovan's plate

967
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:23,960
Speaker 1: discipline is so much better. Abrams. You know, there could

968
00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,799
Speaker 1: be some work there, you know, if I actually pull

969
00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:32,040
Speaker 1: up Abrams over on stat cast, Yeah, and again, if

970
00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:34,600
Speaker 1: you're looking at the bad at ball mextrics, still nothing amazing.

971
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:37,239
Speaker 1: Bind each many means middle of the road, but the

972
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:41,279
Speaker 1: strikeout rate twentieth percentile with the walk rate, twentieth percentile

973
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,800
Speaker 1: with the chase rate. Again fast he's an electric player

974
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,239
Speaker 1: for the third time. Fourth time. Kind of reminds me

975
00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:51,200
Speaker 1: of Durant. So yeah, I don't know, I don't know

976
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,960
Speaker 1: if I don't know if Abrams is the answer personally,

977
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:56,279
Speaker 1: I think he fits other teams out there. I think

978
00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:59,600
Speaker 1: for the Red Sox you'd want better plate discipline. I

979
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:02,960
Speaker 1: think they're looking for more of, a more of. I

980
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:06,279
Speaker 1: don't know. It's funny because Abrams he did have the

981
00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:11,120
Speaker 1: better f war last year at three point one compared

982
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,400
Speaker 1: to Brendan Donovan at a two point nine. I'm just

983
00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:16,239
Speaker 1: a bigger fan of Donovan in his game a little

984
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:19,160
Speaker 1: bit more. He doesn't strike out really as much, you know,

985
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:25,160
Speaker 1: he walks more. So I would rather have Donovan, to

986
00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:27,640
Speaker 1: be honest with you. But again, you know, I'll keep

987
00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:30,839
Speaker 1: going back to the couple of guys that I got

988
00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:34,399
Speaker 1: my eyes on. I'm looking at East Soak Paratus. I'm

989
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:38,120
Speaker 1: still waiting for whatever blinking match is going on here

990
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 1: between these two teams to resolve itself. I think Paratis

991
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:44,880
Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense, And you know, listen, I

992
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:52,040
Speaker 1: would love someone like Nico Horner. Of course I would

993
00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:56,680
Speaker 1: love Nico Horner absolutely, especially you know with the pitching

994
00:56:56,680 --> 00:56:58,560
Speaker 1: of the Red Sox. Have you got guys that are

995
00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:00,560
Speaker 1: gonna be able to get some ground balls there? You know,

996
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:04,319
Speaker 1: you got Crochet leading the way, but you know, just

997
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:06,239
Speaker 1: brought him Ranger Suarez. He's gonna get a lot of

998
00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:09,120
Speaker 1: weak contact in the infield. Sonny Gray, he'll get that too,

999
00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:12,480
Speaker 1: Brian Bao if he ends up staying with the Red Sox,

1000
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:15,640
Speaker 1: you know that's more of He pitched more to contact

1001
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:18,320
Speaker 1: last year. So yeah, you would like a good defender

1002
00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:21,480
Speaker 1: out there like Horner. And you know, listen, I know

1003
00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:23,600
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't like the idea of Shaw

1004
00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:26,960
Speaker 1: because you would like a bit more floor. But he

1005
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 1: does intrigue me. I think there's still a lot of

1006
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:31,280
Speaker 1: upside with him. I was really hoping the Red Sox

1007
00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:35,360
Speaker 1: would be able to draft him back. What was it,

1008
00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:38,160
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. I mean he went number thirteen to

1009
00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:40,160
Speaker 1: the Cubs and the Red Sox at number fourteen got

1010
00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:42,760
Speaker 1: Kyle Teel. I'd say that worked out because he got Crochet.

1011
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:47,520
Speaker 1: But Shaw is intriguing to me. I think the amount

1012
00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:49,880
Speaker 1: of control, I think the good things that he did

1013
00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:54,280
Speaker 1: show with the bat last year. I think the ceiling

1014
00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:58,480
Speaker 1: is very high with him. Those are my three guys. Personally,

1015
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:03,880
Speaker 1: I would get Paradus, maybe Horner if he I'd love Horner,

1016
00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 1: but I don't know if he's if the Cubs are

1017
00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:11,160
Speaker 1: gonna move him. It's it's so interesting thinking about if

1018
00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:15,400
Speaker 1: the Cubs would move Horner, because it's that one year

1019
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:17,880
Speaker 1: left that really puts a thorn in it. I think

1020
00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:20,240
Speaker 1: the Cubs would rather just hang on to all three

1021
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:22,240
Speaker 1: and then just make it work, because you never know

1022
00:58:22,280 --> 00:58:24,800
Speaker 1: if someone gets injured, you never know what ends up

1023
00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:29,200
Speaker 1: happening at that point. You know, when Shaw, I believe

1024
00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:33,600
Speaker 1: you know, he still has options obviously, so I think

1025
00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:35,000
Speaker 1: the Cubs would like to just keep all, you know,

1026
00:58:35,280 --> 00:58:40,040
Speaker 1: keep both of them, Bregman, Shaw, and Horner, then make

1027
00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:43,840
Speaker 1: it work. Shaw could play some outfield too, d H whatever,

1028
00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:46,840
Speaker 1: you know, And that's another thing, you know, Bregman, you know,

1029
00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:50,160
Speaker 1: I actually wouldn't be surprised if maybe you saw Bregman

1030
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:53,120
Speaker 1: d hsh a little bit more this coming year for

1031
00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 1: the Cubs. Not full time obviously, not even half of

1032
00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:58,480
Speaker 1: the time, but maybe get a few more to kind

1033
00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:00,680
Speaker 1: of get him off of his legs a little bit.

1034
00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:03,440
Speaker 1: I know you got Ballastaros over there, but you know,

1035
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:05,520
Speaker 1: I for Bregman had the quat injury last year. You

1036
00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:07,880
Speaker 1: wonder if maybe the Cubs would actually like to dache

1037
00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:11,080
Speaker 1: him a little bit more to get Shaw into the lineup.

1038
00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:14,880
Speaker 1: You know, it's kind of where I'm at. I don't

1039
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:17,840
Speaker 1: know if Shaw or Horner are gonna be realistic. That's

1040
00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:20,160
Speaker 1: why I just keep looking at Paradus. I feel like

1041
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:24,280
Speaker 1: he just checks off the boxes defensively. You know, it's

1042
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:26,720
Speaker 1: not gonna be amazing, but you know he'll get enough,

1043
00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:30,160
Speaker 1: he'll do enough out there. But then again, you know,

1044
00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:33,040
Speaker 1: could I see the Red Sox making some kind of

1045
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 1: a move that we're not even expecting. Donovan I could also,

1046
00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:38,919
Speaker 1: You know, I wouldn't be upset with Donovan either. Those

1047
00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:41,200
Speaker 1: are the four guys I would That's the group I'm

1048
00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:46,720
Speaker 1: looking at. Paradis, Donovan, Shaw, Horner, Paradus and Donovan are

1049
00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:51,840
Speaker 1: gonna be more realistic. We'll see, we will see. But everybody,

1050
00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:55,760
Speaker 1: that is it for this episode? Here today, Ryan Cooking

1051
00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:57,320
Speaker 1: the chat. How about our trade with the Tigers? The

1052
00:59:57,400 --> 00:59:59,920
Speaker 1: rand for Colt Keith. You know you kind of one

1053
01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:04,280
Speaker 1: with the Tigers, right, they haven't really done a whole lot,

1054
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:07,240
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, obviously they got all this scooble stuff,

1055
01:00:07,280 --> 01:00:10,320
Speaker 1: but I kind of wonder if they look to make

1056
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:11,720
Speaker 1: some kind of a move. But here's the thing with

1057
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:14,640
Speaker 1: Cold Keith, I don't know if he's the needle mover

1058
01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:18,080
Speaker 1: for the Red Sox. You know, I've seen someone say

1059
01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 1: Hovey or Bias. I don't see that. You want someone

1060
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:25,400
Speaker 1: that's going to move the needle. Cole Keith is not

1061
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:30,120
Speaker 1: really Duran's gonna be better offensively, you know. So if

1062
01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:32,160
Speaker 1: you're giving up Duran, it has to be worth it

1063
01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:34,360
Speaker 1: because he's a very productive player. You don't just give

1064
01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:38,160
Speaker 1: up Duran, you know, for you know, a bag of skittles.

1065
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:40,760
Speaker 1: You know. I like Cold Keith, but I don't think

1066
01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:45,560
Speaker 1: he does. He doesn't really move things forward very much

1067
01:00:45,600 --> 01:00:47,960
Speaker 1: for the Red Sox in my opinion. So I've seen

1068
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:51,080
Speaker 1: other people mention you could do something for like Nolan Gorman,

1069
01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:54,840
Speaker 1: someone like Josh Young. You know, I don't know. Again,

1070
01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:58,880
Speaker 1: it's like those are good ideas, out of the box ideas,

1071
01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:01,480
Speaker 1: but you're in a competitive window now. You need to

1072
01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:03,479
Speaker 1: go get a guy that's gonna help you win. Now.

1073
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:06,960
Speaker 1: You know, I've seen people Jose and the chat. What

1074
01:01:06,960 --> 01:01:09,040
Speaker 1: do you think if we sign a Rise to play second.

1075
01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:14,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I don't know. I don't think

1076
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:16,960
Speaker 1: the Rise is I don't know. I just don't see

1077
01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:19,600
Speaker 1: the fit. And defensively, he's not amazing out there. You know,

1078
01:01:19,640 --> 01:01:22,200
Speaker 1: that's why you got him over at first base. You know,

1079
01:01:23,040 --> 01:01:27,680
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe he can play first, so you know,

1080
01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:30,960
Speaker 1: Wilson the righty if he needs a day. I don't know.

1081
01:01:30,960 --> 01:01:34,920
Speaker 1: If you want to play matchups or whatever, you know,

1082
01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:36,920
Speaker 1: maybe you can make that work. But I don't know.

1083
01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:40,640
Speaker 1: A Rise doesn't really do much for me. I've seen

1084
01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,640
Speaker 1: the cat coach. I do like Josh Young. Defense is

1085
01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:47,120
Speaker 1: there that is capable. That's the key word. Capable. Yes,

1086
01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:49,800
Speaker 1: these guys all have upside. They do. They could be

1087
01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:53,160
Speaker 1: good players, But I think you need something that you know,

1088
01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:56,840
Speaker 1: very good chance. They're gonna come over to Boston. They're

1089
01:01:56,840 --> 01:01:59,520
Speaker 1: gonna help you out, They're gonna help you win. I

1090
01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:02,960
Speaker 1: see in the d Bobby twenty five Perdomo. The Diamondbacks

1091
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:06,880
Speaker 1: would be crazy if they traded Perdomo, absolutely crazy. They're

1092
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:11,520
Speaker 1: not moving him again. That's your shortstop, that's your shortstop.

1093
01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:14,600
Speaker 1: You don't move the guy you build the team around.

1094
01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:17,680
Speaker 1: Right that they gave him the extension. People keep bringing

1095
01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:20,000
Speaker 1: up to tell Marte. I'll say, I'll talk about this

1096
01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:25,640
Speaker 1: for one second. I don't see the DVACS moving him.

1097
01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:29,320
Speaker 1: I would love to be wrong. Maybe they changed their mind,

1098
01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:32,400
Speaker 1: but Hazan seemed pretty definitive on that. You know, you

1099
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:37,240
Speaker 1: put the reports out. He's already spoken with him. People

1100
01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:40,160
Speaker 1: can change their mind. I don't know. You know, maybe Hazen,

1101
01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:44,200
Speaker 1: you know, if he's already talked with Marte saying hey, listen,

1102
01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:46,280
Speaker 1: this is what was going on. We love you as

1103
01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:48,640
Speaker 1: a player here. We know you had some stuff last year.

1104
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:50,480
Speaker 1: We think you're a great player, one of the best

1105
01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:53,400
Speaker 1: players in the game. This is why you were coming up.

1106
01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:56,280
Speaker 1: You know, we needed to get some pitching, you know,

1107
01:02:57,280 --> 01:03:02,200
Speaker 1: more logistics, no hard feelings, right. Could Hayes and eventually,

1108
01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:04,720
Speaker 1: if someone else comes to the table with an offer

1109
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:09,320
Speaker 1: they can't refuse. Could he go back to Marte and say, listen,

1110
01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:12,520
Speaker 1: I know we talked, but this is what's going on.

1111
01:03:13,440 --> 01:03:16,600
Speaker 1: This is what's happened. We got a deal here. This

1112
01:03:16,680 --> 01:03:19,160
Speaker 1: is a you know, we're getting a pretty good package

1113
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:21,920
Speaker 1: of players here. You know, very good package of players.

1114
01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:25,960
Speaker 1: You know, we know you got the no trade Listen,

1115
01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:29,280
Speaker 1: this is what's on the table. Do you want to go?

1116
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:32,560
Speaker 1: We'd love to keep you, But if you would be

1117
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:35,960
Speaker 1: okay to move, then what do you think? I don't know,

1118
01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:38,720
Speaker 1: could he go back to him at some point? Maybe?

1119
01:03:39,280 --> 01:03:42,320
Speaker 1: I don't know. Man, Marte is just he's just so good.

1120
01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:44,920
Speaker 1: He's so good over there. If the d Backs you

1121
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:48,120
Speaker 1: got to get a lot back for him, you know, yeah,

1122
01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:50,000
Speaker 1: I mean the Red Sox could set. But again, I

1123
01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:51,840
Speaker 1: think the d Backs are gonna want Peyton totally or

1124
01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:56,280
Speaker 1: Connolly early. That's another sticking point in that. And I

1125
01:03:56,320 --> 01:04:00,880
Speaker 1: think that the Diamondbacks are fair to want that in return.

1126
01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:03,560
Speaker 1: They should want that, But for the Red Sox, they're

1127
01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:06,800
Speaker 1: not gonna do it. And I don't know. I guess

1128
01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:09,160
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're gonna line up. That's you know,

1129
01:04:09,200 --> 01:04:13,920
Speaker 1: the Red Sox they're they're you know, they're not blinking,

1130
01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:15,960
Speaker 1: you know. So I don't know if you're gonna get

1131
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:17,440
Speaker 1: Marte unless you give up one of those guys. And

1132
01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:19,360
Speaker 1: I don't think they want to give up one of

1133
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:23,400
Speaker 1: those guys. So that's just me. But everybody, I'm gonna

1134
01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 1: wrap it up right there. That is all for this
