Today, 0:00:27.960 --> 0:00:30.680 the Peanuts and the Crackerjacks are ready to go Welsh. 0:00:31.040 --> 0:00:32.960 Life is funny. You want to know why? You wanna 0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:33.920 know why life is funny? 0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:35.240 Why is life funny? 0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:37.480 Joe, I'm gonna tell you why life is funny. Life 0:00:37.520 --> 0:00:40.640 is funny because yesterday I told you I had a 0:00:40.720 --> 0:00:43.879 chance to see Garrick Cole and I said tickets were 0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:48.040 outrageous blah blah blah. And I also I had to 0:00:48.080 --> 0:00:50.080 go to home depot or doing home renovations in the 0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:52.319 bathroom here, I had to go look at some other 0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:55.520 tile stuff, get a couple things there, and I forgot 0:00:55.600 --> 0:00:59.480 it's the parking lot directly across from the sumrset Patriots. 0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:03.960 I saw everybody in their Sodo jerseys in there, Judge 0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:07.479 jerseys walk into the ballpark. There was an energy around 0:01:07.480 --> 0:01:10.479 the ballpark. Welsh. It was infectious. It was unbelievable. So 0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:14.560 I did stand outside of the greatness, but I wasn't 0:01:14.959 --> 0:01:16.679 in the room for it. You know, I just wanted 0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:19.080 you to know. It's almost like the baseball gods were 0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:21.000 trying so hard to. 0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:23.119 Want to do there. You know, it was so funny. 0:01:23.160 --> 0:01:26.399 I was watching it and at the what for whatever reason, 0:01:26.480 --> 0:01:30.360 on that broadcast, they were like, oh man, everybody, can 0:01:30.360 --> 0:01:33.760 you also believe today is Dollar Beard or I'm sorry, 0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:36.399 Dollar hot Dog Day? So they're like, can you believe 0:01:36.440 --> 0:01:38.440 that people got in get to see a major league 0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:41.840 or Dollar hot Dog Day? Everyone's and I'm thinking, I 0:01:41.880 --> 0:01:44.919 know what your guys's tricks are? Eighty five dollars seats 0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:47.600 with your dollar hot dog. You just moved the prices 0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:48.280 to the ticket. 0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:51.280 It wasn't originally. I'm almost one hundred percent sure it 0:01:51.280 --> 0:01:53.800 was not Dollar Dog Night originally. Because I love Dollar 0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:55.960 Dog Nights. I will go to Dollar Dog Nights. It 0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:59.080 better be ten, it better be Nickel Doog Knights. Eighty 0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:01.600 five dollars to watch you know, five innings or whatever, 0:02:01.720 --> 0:02:04.200 three innings with Garrett Cole whatever it was. But that's 0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:06.320 We're gonna talk about Gerrit Cole and his performance the 0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:09.320 second But I want to talk about something else here. 0:02:09.880 --> 0:02:11.840 What was plan talking about Garrett Cole? 0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:14.359 I was just like always, we're gonna talk about Gerret 0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:16.680 Cole more because gas this is the big headline. You'renna 0:02:16.680 --> 0:02:19.960 talk about Erreck Cole. But Angelo is the real guy 0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:22.640 we're gonna bring up here because Glad I started Jared Jones. Now, 0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:26.440 yesterday Angela wasn't the guy that almost got Roadhouse. Somebody 0:02:26.440 --> 0:02:28.040 else in the chat, Grizz you know who you are, 0:02:28.440 --> 0:02:33.600 that was walking the line of getting mcgregord almost almost 0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:39.799 almost got Carlos, but instead withdrew it. We and that's 0:02:39.800 --> 0:02:42.239 why we clarify things, because you know, you can never 0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:46.280 know what someone's intentions are. But Jared Jones one bad 0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:49.360 start after a rain out the day before on a 0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:52.720 day game. We can't hold that against him, Welsh, Jared 0:02:52.800 --> 0:02:54.360 Jones went out there and kicked the crap out of 0:02:54.360 --> 0:02:56.280 the Dodgers. How you do win, Let's go. 0:02:56.440 --> 0:03:02.639 He shut him down one nothing twelve's twelve swinging whiffs 0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:03.200 in that one. 0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:06.640 I'm pulling up his whole thing here. His fastball was 0:03:06.680 --> 0:03:09.000 actually up a mile per hour. 0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:11.639 He I didn't see this. He touched one oh one 0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:14.400 and a half on the fastball. It was up a 0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:17.800 full mile per hour. Slider was up almost two miles 0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:21.919 per hour on average average ninety usually seeking eighty eight. 0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:25.160 Change up was up, curveball was up. Everything was up 0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:28.120 four seamens slider combined for those twelve swing and whiffs. 0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:31.000 Nothing on the change up, nothing on the curveball. Kind 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:33.959 of lives in that two pitchy pitch type of world 0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:37.000 called strike CSW percentage. 0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:39.360 Was really low. By watch it's a bitch bitch. 0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:43.200 World, only twenty one percent on the called called strikes 0:03:43.200 --> 0:03:47.320 and whiffs. On the CSW percentage, he was effective. This 0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:50.440 was the Jerry Jones we saw and he played it up. 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:52.440 I mean, unless I don't know if this is like 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:54.640 a long standing change for the rest of the year 0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:56.520 that he's dialing it up, or he dialed it up 0:03:56.920 --> 0:04:00.320 against a Dodger team. Very interesting to see these high 0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:03.280 v low guys with this stuff dial up and down 0:04:03.360 --> 0:04:05.560 based on the starts and maybe this was a dial 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:08.680 up Dodger thing. Watch it for Paul schemes today. Maybe 0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:11.640 we're even gonna see some of those crazy v low fastballs. 0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:13.520 Those guys just not holding it back. 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:18.400 Maybe here's Grizz though. Grizz also started Jared Jones, So 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:20.720 good on you, Grizz. This is why we come here, 0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:22.640 This is why we have the conversations. We're a group. 0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:25.560 We're like, I can't imagine Emily here, the Peanuts and the 0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:28.400 Cracker Jacks. As we're a family. Sometimes the family fights. 0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:31.560 Sometimes you know, we're gonna have fun together. This is 0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:33.880 just what we do. But I'm glad that Grizz got 0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:36.800 those points yesterday from Jared Jones and those stats. Go ahead, Welsh. 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:40.160 I'm just not as big of a like obvious. 0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:43.920 There's obvious guys that are deserved of benching and like 0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:45.960 kind of stream if you want to call it streaming, 0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:46.800 it kind of is. 0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:48.159 I don't. 0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:50.480 I guess I'm just not the type of person that's 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:52.280 gonna look at a guy like Jared Jones, who's been 0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:54.440 a top twenty sp and be like, oh. 0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:56.720 Man, it's the Dodgers. We're gonna have to I'm just 0:04:56.760 --> 0:04:57.679 starting my stuff. 0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:59.480 Would have been I think it was the combination of 0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:02.680 oh no, it's the Dodgers plus oh my god, last 0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:04.800 start was not good. And I think whenever you have 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:07.920 somebody that just blows away expectations, like Jerry Jones, expectations 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:10.760 I think were they were there, they were present, but 0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:12.800 he has just destroyed them. And I think when you 0:05:12.800 --> 0:05:15.280 have a player do that, that's what happens. They go 0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:17.480 so far past it that they end up, you know, 0:05:17.560 --> 0:05:19.120 just blowing the minds. We go, Okay, this is too 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:20.200 good to be true, and then they have a bad 0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:21.880 start and then they're facing the Dodgers the next one. 0:05:21.920 --> 0:05:25.040 You go, but he's been so good, he has earned 0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:26.880 the right to be in your lineup every week until 0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:28.400 he has a couple bad starts in the row or 0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:29.960 you start to see them back off. 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:32.080 Him in some way. And I guess that's kind of 0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:35.520 like the thing. It's like Jared Jones. Maybe also he 0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:40.240 just hadn't earned, in people's eyes, to be like a 0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:43.760 Max Freed or an Aaron Nola or Logan Gilbert. Do 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:49.520 you guys have questions about starting Aaron Nola versus the Dodgers? 0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:53.040 Is that something you guys think about, Like, I'm I'm 0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:57.120 starting my studs in most of these instances, and I 0:05:57.160 --> 0:06:00.159 think the realization is a guy like Jared Jones, I 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:01.840 think it's at the point where he. 0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:04.400 Just deserves that, Like he deserves to. 0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:06.599 Be put into that conversation where it's like, if you 0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:10.360 want a baby ratios, okay, but he's a good strikeout option. 0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:13.119 He's probably gonna give a team like the Dodgers fits. 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:14.000 It just made sense. 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:18.520 It's just hilarious that your guy Jared Jones and my 0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:21.800 guy Brandon fought. We're both against the Dodgers when people 0:06:21.800 --> 0:06:24.600 were crying and complaining in the chat. 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:33.200 Oh they're human. Garrett Cole struck out five and three 0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:35.479 and the third scoreless innings. He was sitting there in 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:37.800 the mid nineties range. I saw him dialed up to 0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:39.960 ninety seven on a big strikeout. I was watching some 0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:42.480 of the highlights of that game too from the comfort 0:06:42.480 --> 0:06:46.880 of my couch yesterday. So they're targeting late June, early July. 0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:50.200 So what do you think. It's the fifth of June today. 0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:53.200 Let's look at the calendar, shall we. So if yesterday 0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:57.240 was three, maybe he starts again. What on the tenth, 0:06:57.480 --> 0:06:59.719 maybe he goes up to four or five innings. Maybe 0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:02.640 they probably get on the sixteenth. Maybe we get him 0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:04.920 up to speed. I don't know, Welsh, I mean, I'd 0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:07.080 be shocked if we if it was July, it's I 0:07:07.080 --> 0:07:09.200 think it's gonna be the week of the seventeenth. My 0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:11.720 guess would be the weekend of the seventeenth there or 0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:14.080 I'll excuse me, more like the weekend of the twenty first, 0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:15.840 twenty second, twenty third. I think that's when you should 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:18.720 expect coleback and we'll see if his elbow comes with him. 0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:21.200 I'm gonna go a week after that. I think that's two. 0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:23.480 They're not gonna have him two starts and then come up. 0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:26.600 No, that would be three more according. 0:07:26.200 --> 0:07:28.600 To the seventeenth though, wouldn't the week of. 0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:31.640 The seventeenth, though, week So I start on the fifth, 0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:35.040 start on the tenth, start again, perhaps on the sixteenth, 0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:37.240 and then maybe on the twenty first, twenty second, twenty 0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:38.080 third that weekend. 0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:40.600 I think that's possible he went like I think they 0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:42.840 wanted him to go forty or fifty pitches in this one. 0:07:43.280 --> 0:07:45.800 Next one they're probably gonna push like the fifty to 0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:48.640 sixty five range, and then you're gonna probably want to 0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:50.520 push seventy five. They're not gonna make him go like 0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:52.520 one hundred or anything in a start like this, but 0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:56.480 he looked good. I watched the majority of this start. 0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:59.640 The fastball back up hit ninety seven. I mean, these 0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:02.320 are double guys. This is a pretty tough lineup. There 0:08:02.360 --> 0:08:05.560 was a rocky lineup. I'd el Amador Young kill Fernandez 0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:07.680 like there were some really good hitters in there. He 0:08:07.800 --> 0:08:10.760 was killing those guys with high fastballs. Looked like he 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:13.160 was still working on some breaking stuff. I thought it 0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:15.360 was great. It's something that I go out and I 0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:16.880 look and I go, you know what, I'm not gonna 0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:20.560 do trade Garrett Cole. Not gonna trade me Garrett Cole. 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:23.080 I'm gonna buy me Garrett Cole because I think Garrett Cole. 0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:26.400 You see that, and unless you are going to fall 0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:30.520 in and say, well he's injury prone now, no, he 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:32.320 looked like Garrett Cole. 0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:34.040 I'm just saying, I remember when I had my first 0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:34.560 beer too. 0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:37.560 Yeah, well, I'm going to have my first Garrett Cole 0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:40.520 start in the major leagues this year and all of 0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:41.880 the rest of them, and he's going to be a 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:43.640 top five sp rest of season. 0:08:43.920 --> 0:08:46.360 I realized it is you know what it really is, 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:49.280 it's the years of watching Jacob de Grom go through 0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:52.839 this process over and over again that has scarred me about. 0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:53.880 Mark Pryor before that. 0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:56.600 And yeah, but I'm just saying no, but specifically to Grom, 0:08:56.640 --> 0:08:58.960 because de Gram was that tease of hey, he's the 0:08:58.960 --> 0:09:01.280 best pitcher in baseball, and he would get he would 0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:04.600 have these elbow issues and then he would go on 0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:06.960 the il. You'd not see him for a couple of months. 0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:10.520 He comes back in these rehab starts, looked good, you 0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:12.520 ramp up, get him on the mound for two stars. 0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:14.679 Thanks thing, you know he's gone again. I'm just saying 0:09:14.880 --> 0:09:18.000 I'm not wishing that on Garrett Cole. To me, it 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:20.840 is very scary. It would going into the year you knew, 0:09:20.920 --> 0:09:23.480 at best you were getting maybe three months out of him. Okay, 0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:25.760 getting half a season, that's fine. If you got half 0:09:25.800 --> 0:09:28.200 the cost, good for you. Depends on when you drafted him. 0:09:28.200 --> 0:09:30.200 At the end of the day. Let's help Luke out 0:09:30.240 --> 0:09:33.520 because Luke is desperate. Joe Welsh chat, I really need help. 0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:39.200 Who to cut Doval Sea walt Are Kimberl Welsh easy, Kimberl. Yeah, 0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:42.880 Luke don't be so desperate next time. All right, let's 0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:47.240 talk about something else here. George Kirby fanning nine guys, which, 0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:48.840 by the way, is funny because I'm wearing my first 0:09:48.880 --> 0:09:52.920 Bueller shirt today. Say, fairest nine guys he fanned. Uh, 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:57.480 he's got a four e RA, a seventy four strikeouts 0:09:57.520 --> 0:09:59.640 just seven walks. To me, Welsh, that should be way 0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:04.120 better than a if you're pitching like that. So Kirby 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:05.720 this year, I think you look at the four ERA 0:10:05.760 --> 0:10:07.360 you're disappointed. You look at the five and five record, 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:11.280 you're disappointed. Man oh man, Like he's delivering that nearly 0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:13.680 ten to one strikeout walker ratio. That's pretty impressive. 0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:16.360 Yeah, I mean it's not like the you know, it's 0:10:16.360 --> 0:10:18.280 not like an awesome win for me because I was 0:10:18.600 --> 0:10:21.880 the biggest pro George Kirby guy in the world. His 0:10:22.080 --> 0:10:25.400 expected stats, they definitely are wanting to tell a different story. 0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:29.160 He's got like a three four expected era, highest career 0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:33.040 k percentage. He's currently rocking with the lowest career walk percentage. 0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:35.160 But you know he has been pitching to a little 0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:37.240 bit more contact. Guys are barreling him up a little 0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:39.920 bit more. They're not hitting it super hard. Just been 0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:42.320 some unlucky stuff, but the strikeouts seem to be going. 0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:44.080 And you know, if you guys remember that was one 0:10:44.080 --> 0:10:45.800 of my bests. Yesterday we had a nice three and 0:10:45.840 --> 0:10:51.120 o day I had and after day, and I had 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:53.920 this thing coming back to me where baseball's just been weird, 0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:56.400 where you know, Chris Sale gets blown up by the 0:10:56.440 --> 0:11:00.000 A's like if you if you know, we're gonna analyze, 0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:02.560 and it's like, this is what should happen. That should 0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:04.920 have been a ladder betting day with George Kirby, with 0:11:04.960 --> 0:11:07.160 some of the performances and how he's done, that would 0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:08.800 have been the best ladder betting day. But we've just 0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:11.240 seen weird, weird stuff go on. 0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:14.120 I even had one good ladder bet day all year 0:11:14.240 --> 0:11:16.520 that I really felt like I was gonna go in. See, 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:18.600 we're very careful about that because that's one of those things, 0:11:18.640 --> 0:11:20.640 like you it's like going on into the poker table, 0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:22.679 like you don't do it all the time. You go 0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:25.520 in there when on all the stars aligned, and just 0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:27.440 so far this year, I mean we're, you know, two 0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.360 once into the season already it hasn't aligned. 0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:32.719 By the way I've done, I'm one and one is. 0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:35.000 That Joy or Jake's I believe it's Joy. 0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:37.880 Joy apology classes on there, Joey. 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:45.960 They're way over here. I see it now. It's Joy Joy. 0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:48.600 Sorry about that. Joy Joy says Dodgers aren't the same 0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:51.840 without Joe's boy, Muncy, you're right. My favorite player, Max Bunzi. 0:11:51.960 --> 0:11:53.880 I love to have Max Bonsey on the show. I 0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:55.680 love Me says he's like a hell of a nice guy. 0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:57.880 Sounds like a guy that you can go out there to, like, 0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:00.280 you know, you can go out and eat with, Yeah, 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:02.760 like Max Munsey, Yeah, like you're gonna have a good dinner. 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:04.840 Max Monty says, Hey, we're going out to dinner. We're 0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:06.439 going to have a good time. Like it's gonna be 0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:06.960 a good time. 0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:09.360 Sounds like a guy that you could like say is 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:11.600 not good for an entire season and then go hang 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:13.960 out with him after and you could be like Max Monthy, it. 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:14.760 Was not good. 0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:17.200 I'm saying. The guys who had under two hundred just 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:18.960 aren't guys that I want to play on my fantasy team. 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:20.280 I want to hang out with Sharburfest. 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:24.400 Well, who doesn't want to hang out with Shoburfest. I 0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:27.600 don't draft you just said, I don't care. I don't. 0:12:27.960 --> 0:12:28.840 I don't draft them either. 0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:31.160 Unfortunate. That's Corbyn Carroll too, by the way, I don't 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:34.240 really want to hang out, Larry's saying. 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:37.040 Joe's casual. Lean talked to the Welsh with like Michael 0:12:37.080 --> 0:12:39.880 Jackson the cover of thriller, Will you have a funny 0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:43.720 story about that? My as a kid, I was terrified 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:46.080 of that video, Like if I heard that, like you 0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:47.960 know the intro that don't don't like. 0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:50.520 If I heard that the zombie thing terrified. 0:12:50.600 --> 0:12:52.520 All I did do is hear it and then I 0:12:52.520 --> 0:12:54.240 would like run into the other room. And it turned 0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:55.319 out that was probably a good instinct. 0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:56.680 At the end of are you like a you don't 0:12:56.720 --> 0:12:57.440 like horror movies? 0:12:57.679 --> 0:12:59.920 No, I still don't know. I'm the big wuss, really. 0:12:59.760 --> 0:13:01.240 Got It's so interesting you and bog me to the 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:03.760 same thing. I'm a horror movie buff. I've seen him. 0:13:03.960 --> 0:13:06.920 Oh you name it, I've seen it. No prioritize them, 0:13:07.080 --> 0:13:09.319 you and Bob, I don't know. You guys just were 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:12.199 Is it like a hype thing like under Yeah, short. 0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:15.920 Guys, you yeah, short guys don't like scary movies. Mason 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:17.960 win three for three with a homer, two ribies. He's 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:19.880 been great. He was my big guy yesterday or should 0:13:19.880 --> 0:13:21.679 I say last week on the waiver wire to pick up, 0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:24.320 so hopefully you did. He's sitting three thirty three, three 0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:27.400 eighty nine to five thirty three in already so far 0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:30.200 the last couple of games. So just a terrific run 0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:32.040 for Mason Winn who had that big sixteen game hit 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.000 straight before that got snapped Nick Cassiano's game winning homer. 0:13:35.280 --> 0:13:37.559 There you go, carried my Phillies. I'm gonna start calling 0:13:37.559 --> 0:13:41.199 them my Phillies now, That's what I'm gonna do. Royce Lewis 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:44.520 homer walked twice yesterday's return to the Twins. I tried 0:13:44.559 --> 0:13:46.720 so hard for the last month to get Royce Lewis 0:13:46.720 --> 0:13:48.080 on my team. I could not do it. I only 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:50.240 got him in the home league, not the homegue, the 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:53.120 Fantasy pros league that Welsh isn't allowed in. And Louis 0:13:53.160 --> 0:13:56.640 Heel again another great start for him, six strikeout, six 0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:59.440 shot out anything. I know everybody I know he's been great. 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:02.760 Let me so. I was rightfully so. 0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:06.640 My friend Dennis Shidler, he signed Louise Heel to like 0:14:06.679 --> 0:14:10.559 an autograph deal earlier this year. Genius, we were talking 0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:11.640 about Louise yesterday. 0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:12.440 I just text him. 0:14:12.480 --> 0:14:14.800 I was like, I love Luise and I just wanted 0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:17.520 Dentis to know that. And I started to look. Did 0:14:17.559 --> 0:14:20.600 you know in the A I was looking on. 0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:25.880 The duel the FanDuel he Is. I know. 0:14:25.880 --> 0:14:28.640 Sorry, sorry, well you were looking around real quick, you're 0:14:28.680 --> 0:14:29.440 looking around. Look. 0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:34.160 Louis Heal is number one in al Rookie of the 0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:39.720 Year voting by a wide margin. He's minus one oh five. 0:14:40.080 --> 0:14:44.600 The next closest is closer Mason Miller at plus three 0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:49.200 hundred and Louis Heal right now is eighth in the 0:14:49.320 --> 0:14:53.800 al Cy Young Awards, and he has a legitimate shot 0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:56.320 when you look at that group. If he doesn't get 0:14:56.320 --> 0:14:59.200 held down and maintains ninety percent of who he is, 0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:01.920 he could win the Cy Young. 0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:05.520 And right now he is running away with the Rookie 0:15:05.560 --> 0:15:08.320 of the Year. It kills me. He was never on pictures. 0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:09.880 It's so hard. But you look at the. 0:15:09.800 --> 0:15:15.040 AL Rookie this and he gets lighting money on fires. No, well, no, 0:15:15.160 --> 0:15:17.120 what for cy Younger Rookie of the Year. Okay, the 0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:20.200 year there's no one closed. You know who's number three 0:15:20.840 --> 0:15:22.680 will you're a brave you who just hit the I L. 0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:26.760 Carter is on the I L. Langford stinks Holiday is 0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:30.160 its only generated hostess Cookie June. 0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:34.240 It's only just understand that last year Gunnar Henderson wasn't 0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:37.240 nowhere near that award either. What happened he was, but 0:15:37.520 --> 0:15:39.240 tell me he was, tell me he was. He was 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:42.040 nowhere near that award last year. This time he was, like, 0:15:42.160 --> 0:15:45.520 he played the whole season thousand here's the difference. 0:15:45.560 --> 0:15:48.000 So he was there the whole season and then he 0:15:48.120 --> 0:15:53.200 had the Okay, but who's the guy Wyatt length Okay, 0:15:53.240 --> 0:15:54.240 Wyat Langford. 0:15:53.960 --> 0:15:56.680 Is titimately how could Wyatt Langford not write the same 0:15:56.680 --> 0:15:58.120 story that Gunner Henderson wrote last year. 0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:00.720 No, No, that's the only one at the point that can 0:16:00.720 --> 0:16:01.760 do that. 0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:05.480 Bet it just on principle, I'm gonna spipe Langford. Yeah, 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:07.600 I'm gonna spipe it White Langford. 0:16:07.600 --> 0:16:11.200 Now after this, I'm not betting heels money at this. 0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:13.320 Knowing and I'm telling you don't and I'm telling you 0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:15.520 fad it. I'm telling you it's time for spite money. 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:17.920 So it's Langford because, by the way, your only option 0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:20.040 is Langford right now, unless you're. 0:16:19.920 --> 0:16:22.080 A super genius and you can see. 0:16:21.880 --> 0:16:23.720 The future, and there's a guy that's gonna come up 0:16:23.960 --> 0:16:26.360 in two days and run away with it. A closer 0:16:26.440 --> 0:16:28.760 is not gonna win Rookie of the Year award. No, no, no, 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:31.960 get away, get out of here. You host this cookie. 0:16:33.680 --> 0:16:35.760 I could do it. I'm a real boy. I could 0:16:35.800 --> 0:16:38.440 certainly carry key ways. I really do. Try hard. 0:16:39.320 --> 0:16:42.000 You like my fun, go back, clip it, click clip this. 0:16:42.240 --> 0:16:42.600 I don't. 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:46.280 I don't think there is a guy that can take 0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:48.320 this over at this point in the AL, the n 0:16:48.440 --> 0:16:50.120 L is open season. 0:16:51.160 --> 0:16:52.080 Yeah, I'm a motor. 0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:55.080 Is. I think you're not giving him enough credit of 0:16:55.120 --> 0:16:57.560 how no realistic he is. I don't care. 0:16:57.960 --> 0:16:59.280 Have you watched Luise Heel. 0:17:00.200 --> 0:17:02.080 He's been fantastic. Are we going to see him in 0:17:02.120 --> 0:17:03.160 August in September? 0:17:03.560 --> 0:17:05.560 That's a good question. I don't know. 0:17:05.200 --> 0:17:07.840 I know, I don't know. I don't know if if 0:17:07.840 --> 0:17:09.640 three good months is enough to win Rookie of the Year, 0:17:09.680 --> 0:17:12.159 because we all know it's a recency bias, and at 0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:13.720 the end of the year, that's what matters. 0:17:13.800 --> 0:17:16.560 It's a second and I don't think it's why. 0:17:16.560 --> 0:17:18.120 It's the hardest award to get right. And the fact 0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:19.720 that we got the double dip last year of Corman 0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:22.040 Carrol and Gunnar Henderson on that special right last year 0:17:22.359 --> 0:17:24.919 is astounding because that is really hard work, because you're 0:17:24.960 --> 0:17:27.639 such a great prospect person and you pushed hard for it, 0:17:27.680 --> 0:17:29.880 and I was along for the ride and I put 0:17:30.040 --> 0:17:33.160 my money where your mouth was basically, which just sounds gross. 0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:35.440 Don't do that again. Don't do that again. Don't put 0:17:35.520 --> 0:17:35.920 all right. 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:40.439 Let's do that, Eric Barty, Okay, I'm a Spotify listener, 0:17:40.440 --> 0:17:42.679 but I call it Today's show Live. What does puppet 0:17:42.760 --> 0:17:45.359 Joe look like? So I think the only to do that? 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:46.480 Do you want to do that? Do it through the 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:48.199 full effect where I leave the box. 0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:52.240 Oh, I mean if you want to see the box effect, 0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:55.800 sure you could. Okay, so here you go. So hey yo, everybody, 0:17:55.880 --> 0:17:59.399 let me tell you about whyatt Langford Pitchers can't win 0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:00.880 al Rookie of the Year. 0:18:01.480 --> 0:18:05.760 I know it all Welsh, your dummy, heyo. 0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:10.680
