Speaker 1: right now watching us live. I see forty plus comments
Speaker 1: in the chat before I even really got the show going. Today,
Speaker 1: the Peanuts and the Crackerjacks are ready to go Welsh.
Speaker 1: Life is funny. You want to know why? You wanna
Speaker 1: know why life is funny?
Speaker 2: Why is life funny?
Speaker 1: Joe, I'm gonna tell you why life is funny. Life
Speaker 1: is funny because yesterday I told you I had a
Speaker 1: chance to see Garrick Cole and I said tickets were
Speaker 1: outrageous blah blah blah. And I also I had to
Speaker 1: go to home depot or doing home renovations in the
Speaker 1: bathroom here, I had to go look at some other
Speaker 1: tile stuff, get a couple things there, and I forgot
Speaker 1: it's the parking lot directly across from the sumrset Patriots.
Speaker 1: I saw everybody in their Sodo jerseys in there, Judge
Speaker 1: jerseys walk into the ballpark. There was an energy around
Speaker 1: the ballpark. Welsh. It was infectious. It was unbelievable. So
Speaker 1: I did stand outside of the greatness, but I wasn't
Speaker 1: in the room for it. You know, I just wanted
Speaker 1: you to know. It's almost like the baseball gods were
Speaker 1: trying so hard to.
Speaker 2: Want to do there. You know, it was so funny.
Speaker 3: I was watching it and at the what for whatever reason,
Speaker 3: on that broadcast, they were like, oh man, everybody, can
Speaker 3: you also believe today is Dollar Beard or I'm sorry,
Speaker 3: Dollar hot Dog Day? So they're like, can you believe
Speaker 3: that people got in get to see a major league
Speaker 3: or Dollar hot Dog Day? Everyone's and I'm thinking, I
Speaker 3: know what your guys's tricks are? Eighty five dollars seats
Speaker 3: with your dollar hot dog. You just moved the prices
Speaker 3: to the ticket.
Speaker 1: It wasn't originally. I'm almost one hundred percent sure it
Speaker 1: was not Dollar Dog Night originally. Because I love Dollar
Speaker 1: Dog Nights. I will go to Dollar Dog Nights. It
Speaker 1: better be ten, it better be Nickel Doog Knights. Eighty
Speaker 1: five dollars to watch you know, five innings or whatever,
Speaker 1: three innings with Garrett Cole whatever it was. But that's
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about Gerrit Cole and his performance the
Speaker 1: second But I want to talk about something else here.
Speaker 2: What was plan talking about Garrett Cole?
Speaker 1: I was just like always, we're gonna talk about Gerret
Speaker 1: Cole more because gas this is the big headline. You'renna
Speaker 1: talk about Erreck Cole. But Angelo is the real guy
Speaker 1: we're gonna bring up here because Glad I started Jared Jones. Now,
Speaker 1: yesterday Angela wasn't the guy that almost got Roadhouse. Somebody
Speaker 1: else in the chat, Grizz you know who you are,
Speaker 1: that was walking the line of getting mcgregord almost almost
Speaker 1: almost got Carlos, but instead withdrew it. We and that's
Speaker 1: why we clarify things, because you know, you can never
Speaker 1: know what someone's intentions are. But Jared Jones one bad
Speaker 1: start after a rain out the day before on a
Speaker 1: day game. We can't hold that against him, Welsh, Jared
Speaker 1: Jones went out there and kicked the crap out of
Speaker 1: the Dodgers. How you do win, Let's go.
Speaker 3: He shut him down one nothing twelve's twelve swinging whiffs
Speaker 3: in that one.
Speaker 2: I'm pulling up his whole thing here. His fastball was
Speaker 2: actually up a mile per hour.
Speaker 3: He I didn't see this. He touched one oh one
Speaker 3: and a half on the fastball. It was up a
Speaker 3: full mile per hour. Slider was up almost two miles
Speaker 3: per hour on average average ninety usually seeking eighty eight.
Speaker 3: Change up was up, curveball was up. Everything was up
Speaker 3: four seamens slider combined for those twelve swing and whiffs.
Speaker 3: Nothing on the change up, nothing on the curveball. Kind
Speaker 3: of lives in that two pitchy pitch type of world
Speaker 3: called strike CSW percentage.
Speaker 2: Was really low. By watch it's a bitch bitch.
Speaker 3: World, only twenty one percent on the called called strikes
Speaker 3: and whiffs. On the CSW percentage, he was effective. This
Speaker 3: was the Jerry Jones we saw and he played it up.
Speaker 3: I mean, unless I don't know if this is like
Speaker 3: a long standing change for the rest of the year
Speaker 3: that he's dialing it up, or he dialed it up
Speaker 3: against a Dodger team. Very interesting to see these high
Speaker 3: v low guys with this stuff dial up and down
Speaker 3: based on the starts and maybe this was a dial
Speaker 3: up Dodger thing. Watch it for Paul schemes today. Maybe
Speaker 3: we're even gonna see some of those crazy v low fastballs.
Speaker 3: Those guys just not holding it back.
Speaker 1: Maybe here's Grizz though. Grizz also started Jared Jones, So
Speaker 1: good on you, Grizz. This is why we come here,
Speaker 1: This is why we have the conversations. We're a group.
Speaker 1: We're like, I can't imagine Emily here, the Peanuts and the
Speaker 1: Cracker Jacks. As we're a family. Sometimes the family fights.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you know, we're gonna have fun together. This is
Speaker 1: just what we do. But I'm glad that Grizz got
Speaker 1: those points yesterday from Jared Jones and those stats. Go ahead, Welsh.
Speaker 2: I'm just not as big of a like obvious.
Speaker 3: There's obvious guys that are deserved of benching and like
Speaker 3: kind of stream if you want to call it streaming,
Speaker 3: it kind of is.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 3: I guess I'm just not the type of person that's
Speaker 3: gonna look at a guy like Jared Jones, who's been
Speaker 3: a top twenty sp and be like, oh.
Speaker 2: Man, it's the Dodgers. We're gonna have to I'm just
Speaker 2: starting my stuff.
Speaker 1: Would have been I think it was the combination of
Speaker 1: oh no, it's the Dodgers plus oh my god, last
Speaker 1: start was not good. And I think whenever you have
Speaker 1: somebody that just blows away expectations, like Jerry Jones, expectations
Speaker 1: I think were they were there, they were present, but
Speaker 1: he has just destroyed them. And I think when you
Speaker 1: have a player do that, that's what happens. They go
Speaker 1: so far past it that they end up, you know,
Speaker 1: just blowing the minds. We go, Okay, this is too
Speaker 1: good to be true, and then they have a bad
Speaker 1: start and then they're facing the Dodgers the next one.
Speaker 1: You go, but he's been so good, he has earned
Speaker 1: the right to be in your lineup every week until
Speaker 1: he has a couple bad starts in the row or
Speaker 1: you start to see them back off.
Speaker 3: Him in some way. And I guess that's kind of
Speaker 3: like the thing. It's like Jared Jones. Maybe also he
Speaker 3: just hadn't earned, in people's eyes, to be like a
Speaker 3: Max Freed or an Aaron Nola or Logan Gilbert. Do
Speaker 3: you guys have questions about starting Aaron Nola versus the Dodgers?
Speaker 3: Is that something you guys think about, Like, I'm I'm
Speaker 3: starting my studs in most of these instances, and I
Speaker 3: think the realization is a guy like Jared Jones, I
Speaker 3: think it's at the point where he.
Speaker 2: Just deserves that, Like he deserves to.
Speaker 3: Be put into that conversation where it's like, if you
Speaker 3: want a baby ratios, okay, but he's a good strikeout option.
Speaker 3: He's probably gonna give a team like the Dodgers fits.
Speaker 2: It just made sense.
Speaker 3: It's just hilarious that your guy Jared Jones and my
Speaker 3: guy Brandon fought. We're both against the Dodgers when people
Speaker 3: were crying and complaining in the chat.
Speaker 1: Oh they're human. Garrett Cole struck out five and three
Speaker 1: and the third scoreless innings. He was sitting there in
Speaker 1: the mid nineties range. I saw him dialed up to
Speaker 1: ninety seven on a big strikeout. I was watching some
Speaker 1: of the highlights of that game too from the comfort
Speaker 1: of my couch yesterday. So they're targeting late June, early July.
Speaker 1: So what do you think. It's the fifth of June today.
Speaker 1: Let's look at the calendar, shall we. So if yesterday
Speaker 1: was three, maybe he starts again. What on the tenth,
Speaker 1: maybe he goes up to four or five innings. Maybe
Speaker 1: they probably get on the sixteenth. Maybe we get him
Speaker 1: up to speed. I don't know, Welsh, I mean, I'd
Speaker 1: be shocked if we if it was July, it's I
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be the week of the seventeenth. My
Speaker 1: guess would be the weekend of the seventeenth there or
Speaker 1: I'll excuse me, more like the weekend of the twenty first,
Speaker 1: twenty second, twenty third. I think that's when you should
Speaker 1: expect coleback and we'll see if his elbow comes with him.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go a week after that. I think that's two.
Speaker 2: They're not gonna have him two starts and then come up.
Speaker 1: No, that would be three more according.
Speaker 2: To the seventeenth though, wouldn't the week of.
Speaker 1: The seventeenth, though, week So I start on the fifth,
Speaker 1: start on the tenth, start again, perhaps on the sixteenth,
Speaker 1: and then maybe on the twenty first, twenty second, twenty
Speaker 1: third that weekend.
Speaker 3: I think that's possible he went like I think they
Speaker 3: wanted him to go forty or fifty pitches in this one.
Speaker 3: Next one they're probably gonna push like the fifty to
Speaker 3: sixty five range, and then you're gonna probably want to
Speaker 3: push seventy five. They're not gonna make him go like
Speaker 3: one hundred or anything in a start like this, but
Speaker 3: he looked good. I watched the majority of this start.
Speaker 3: The fastball back up hit ninety seven. I mean, these
Speaker 3: are double guys. This is a pretty tough lineup. There
Speaker 3: was a rocky lineup. I'd el Amador Young kill Fernandez
Speaker 3: like there were some really good hitters in there. He
Speaker 3: was killing those guys with high fastballs. Looked like he
Speaker 3: was still working on some breaking stuff. I thought it
Speaker 3: was great. It's something that I go out and I
Speaker 3: look and I go, you know what, I'm not gonna
Speaker 3: do trade Garrett Cole. Not gonna trade me Garrett Cole.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna buy me Garrett Cole because I think Garrett Cole.
Speaker 3: You see that, and unless you are going to fall
Speaker 3: in and say, well he's injury prone now, no, he
Speaker 3: looked like Garrett Cole.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, I remember when I had my first
Speaker 1: beer too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I'm going to have my first Garrett Cole
Speaker 3: start in the major leagues this year and all of
Speaker 3: the rest of them, and he's going to be a
Speaker 3: top five sp rest of season.
Speaker 1: I realized it is you know what it really is,
Speaker 1: it's the years of watching Jacob de Grom go through
Speaker 1: this process over and over again that has scarred me about.
Speaker 2: Mark Pryor before that.
Speaker 1: And yeah, but I'm just saying no, but specifically to Grom,
Speaker 1: because de Gram was that tease of hey, he's the
Speaker 1: best pitcher in baseball, and he would get he would
Speaker 1: have these elbow issues and then he would go on
Speaker 1: the il. You'd not see him for a couple of months.
Speaker 1: He comes back in these rehab starts, looked good, you
Speaker 1: ramp up, get him on the mound for two stars.
Speaker 1: Thanks thing, you know he's gone again. I'm just saying
Speaker 1: I'm not wishing that on Garrett Cole. To me, it
Speaker 1: is very scary. It would going into the year you knew,
Speaker 1: at best you were getting maybe three months out of him. Okay,
Speaker 1: getting half a season, that's fine. If you got half
Speaker 1: the cost, good for you. Depends on when you drafted him.
Speaker 1: At the end of the day. Let's help Luke out
Speaker 1: because Luke is desperate. Joe Welsh chat, I really need help.
Speaker 1: Who to cut Doval Sea walt Are Kimberl Welsh easy, Kimberl. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Luke don't be so desperate next time. All right, let's
Speaker 1: talk about something else here. George Kirby fanning nine guys, which,
Speaker 1: by the way, is funny because I'm wearing my first
Speaker 1: Bueller shirt today. Say, fairest nine guys he fanned. Uh,
Speaker 1: he's got a four e RA, a seventy four strikeouts
Speaker 1: just seven walks. To me, Welsh, that should be way
Speaker 1: better than a if you're pitching like that. So Kirby
Speaker 1: this year, I think you look at the four ERA
Speaker 1: you're disappointed. You look at the five and five record,
Speaker 1: you're disappointed. Man oh man, Like he's delivering that nearly
Speaker 1: ten to one strikeout walker ratio. That's pretty impressive.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's not like the you know, it's
Speaker 3: not like an awesome win for me because I was
Speaker 3: the biggest pro George Kirby guy in the world. His
Speaker 3: expected stats, they definitely are wanting to tell a different story.
Speaker 3: He's got like a three four expected era, highest career
Speaker 3: k percentage. He's currently rocking with the lowest career walk percentage.
Speaker 3: But you know he has been pitching to a little
Speaker 3: bit more contact. Guys are barreling him up a little
Speaker 3: bit more. They're not hitting it super hard. Just been
Speaker 3: some unlucky stuff, but the strikeouts seem to be going.
Speaker 3: And you know, if you guys remember that was one
Speaker 3: of my bests. Yesterday we had a nice three and
Speaker 3: o day I had and after day, and I had
Speaker 3: this thing coming back to me where baseball's just been weird,
Speaker 3: where you know, Chris Sale gets blown up by the
Speaker 3: A's like if you if you know, we're gonna analyze,
Speaker 3: and it's like, this is what should happen. That should
Speaker 3: have been a ladder betting day with George Kirby, with
Speaker 3: some of the performances and how he's done, that would
Speaker 3: have been the best ladder betting day. But we've just
Speaker 3: seen weird, weird stuff go on.
Speaker 1: I even had one good ladder bet day all year
Speaker 1: that I really felt like I was gonna go in. See,
Speaker 1: we're very careful about that because that's one of those things,
Speaker 1: like you it's like going on into the poker table,
Speaker 1: like you don't do it all the time. You go
Speaker 1: in there when on all the stars aligned, and just
Speaker 1: so far this year, I mean we're, you know, two
Speaker 1: once into the season already it hasn't aligned.
Speaker 2: By the way I've done, I'm one and one is.
Speaker 1: That Joy or Jake's I believe it's Joy.
Speaker 2: Joy apology classes on there, Joey.
Speaker 1: They're way over here. I see it now. It's Joy Joy.
Speaker 1: Sorry about that. Joy Joy says Dodgers aren't the same
Speaker 1: without Joe's boy, Muncy, you're right. My favorite player, Max Bunzi.
Speaker 1: I love to have Max Bonsey on the show. I
Speaker 1: love Me says he's like a hell of a nice guy.
Speaker 1: Sounds like a guy that you can go out there to, like,
Speaker 1: you know, you can go out and eat with, Yeah,
Speaker 1: like Max Munsey, Yeah, like you're gonna have a good dinner.
Speaker 1: Max Monty says, Hey, we're going out to dinner. We're
Speaker 1: going to have a good time. Like it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a good time.
Speaker 3: Sounds like a guy that you could like say is
Speaker 3: not good for an entire season and then go hang
Speaker 3: out with him after and you could be like Max Monthy, it.
Speaker 2: Was not good.
Speaker 1: I'm saying. The guys who had under two hundred just
Speaker 1: aren't guys that I want to play on my fantasy team.
Speaker 2: I want to hang out with Sharburfest.
Speaker 1: Well, who doesn't want to hang out with Shoburfest. I
Speaker 1: don't draft you just said, I don't care. I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't draft them either.
Speaker 2: Unfortunate. That's Corbyn Carroll too, by the way, I don't
Speaker 2: really want to hang out, Larry's saying.
Speaker 1: Joe's casual. Lean talked to the Welsh with like Michael
Speaker 1: Jackson the cover of thriller, Will you have a funny
Speaker 1: story about that? My as a kid, I was terrified
Speaker 1: of that video, Like if I heard that, like you
Speaker 1: know the intro that don't don't like.
Speaker 2: If I heard that the zombie thing terrified.
Speaker 1: All I did do is hear it and then I
Speaker 1: would like run into the other room. And it turned
Speaker 1: out that was probably a good instinct.
Speaker 2: At the end of are you like a you don't
Speaker 2: like horror movies?
Speaker 1: No, I still don't know. I'm the big wuss, really.
Speaker 2: Got It's so interesting you and bog me to the
Speaker 2: same thing. I'm a horror movie buff. I've seen him.
Speaker 3: Oh you name it, I've seen it. No prioritize them,
Speaker 3: you and Bob, I don't know. You guys just were
Speaker 3: Is it like a hype thing like under Yeah, short.
Speaker 1: Guys, you yeah, short guys don't like scary movies. Mason
Speaker 1: win three for three with a homer, two ribies. He's
Speaker 1: been great. He was my big guy yesterday or should
Speaker 1: I say last week on the waiver wire to pick up,
Speaker 1: so hopefully you did. He's sitting three thirty three, three
Speaker 1: eighty nine to five thirty three in already so far
Speaker 1: the last couple of games. So just a terrific run
Speaker 1: for Mason Winn who had that big sixteen game hit
Speaker 1: straight before that got snapped Nick Cassiano's game winning homer.
Speaker 1: There you go, carried my Phillies. I'm gonna start calling
Speaker 1: them my Phillies now, That's what I'm gonna do. Royce Lewis
Speaker 1: homer walked twice yesterday's return to the Twins. I tried
Speaker 1: so hard for the last month to get Royce Lewis
Speaker 1: on my team. I could not do it. I only
Speaker 1: got him in the home league, not the homegue, the
Speaker 1: Fantasy pros league that Welsh isn't allowed in. And Louis
Speaker 1: Heel again another great start for him, six strikeout, six
Speaker 1: shot out anything. I know everybody I know he's been great.
Speaker 2: Let me so. I was rightfully so.
Speaker 3: My friend Dennis Shidler, he signed Louise Heel to like
Speaker 3: an autograph deal earlier this year. Genius, we were talking
Speaker 3: about Louise yesterday.
Speaker 2: I just text him.
Speaker 3: I was like, I love Luise and I just wanted
Speaker 3: Dentis to know that. And I started to look. Did
Speaker 3: you know in the A I was looking on.
Speaker 2: The duel the FanDuel he Is. I know.
Speaker 1: Sorry, sorry, well you were looking around real quick, you're
Speaker 1: looking around. Look.
Speaker 3: Louis Heal is number one in al Rookie of the
Speaker 3: Year voting by a wide margin. He's minus one oh five.
Speaker 3: The next closest is closer Mason Miller at plus three
Speaker 3: hundred and Louis Heal right now is eighth in the
Speaker 3: al Cy Young Awards, and he has a legitimate shot
Speaker 3: when you look at that group. If he doesn't get
Speaker 3: held down and maintains ninety percent of who he is,
Speaker 3: he could win the Cy Young.
Speaker 2: And right now he is running away with the Rookie
Speaker 2: of the Year. It kills me. He was never on pictures.
Speaker 2: It's so hard. But you look at the.
Speaker 3: AL Rookie this and he gets lighting money on fires. No, well, no,
Speaker 3: what for cy Younger Rookie of the Year. Okay, the
Speaker 3: year there's no one closed. You know who's number three
Speaker 3: will you're a brave you who just hit the I L.
Speaker 3: Carter is on the I L. Langford stinks Holiday is
Speaker 3: its only generated hostess Cookie June.
Speaker 1: It's only just understand that last year Gunnar Henderson wasn't
Speaker 1: nowhere near that award either. What happened he was, but
Speaker 1: tell me he was, tell me he was. He was
Speaker 1: nowhere near that award last year. This time he was, like,
Speaker 1: he played the whole season thousand here's the difference.
Speaker 3: So he was there the whole season and then he
Speaker 3: had the Okay, but who's the guy Wyatt length Okay,
Speaker 3: Wyat Langford.
Speaker 1: Is titimately how could Wyatt Langford not write the same
Speaker 1: story that Gunner Henderson wrote last year.
Speaker 3: No, No, that's the only one at the point that can
Speaker 3: do that.
Speaker 1: Bet it just on principle, I'm gonna spipe Langford. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna spipe it White Langford.
Speaker 2: Now after this, I'm not betting heels money at this.
Speaker 1: Knowing and I'm telling you don't and I'm telling you
Speaker 1: fad it. I'm telling you it's time for spite money.
Speaker 3: So it's Langford because, by the way, your only option
Speaker 3: is Langford right now, unless you're.
Speaker 2: A super genius and you can see.
Speaker 3: The future, and there's a guy that's gonna come up
Speaker 3: in two days and run away with it. A closer
Speaker 3: is not gonna win Rookie of the Year award. No, no, no,
Speaker 3: get away, get out of here. You host this cookie.
Speaker 1: I could do it. I'm a real boy. I could
Speaker 1: certainly carry key ways. I really do. Try hard.
Speaker 2: You like my fun, go back, clip it, click clip this.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't think there is a guy that can take
Speaker 3: this over at this point in the AL, the n
Speaker 3: L is open season.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a motor.
Speaker 1: Is. I think you're not giving him enough credit of
Speaker 1: how no realistic he is. I don't care.
Speaker 2: Have you watched Luise Heel.
Speaker 1: He's been fantastic. Are we going to see him in
Speaker 1: August in September?
Speaker 2: That's a good question. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I know, I don't know. I don't know if if
Speaker 1: three good months is enough to win Rookie of the Year,
Speaker 1: because we all know it's a recency bias, and at
Speaker 1: the end of the year, that's what matters.
Speaker 2: It's a second and I don't think it's why.
Speaker 1: It's the hardest award to get right. And the fact
Speaker 1: that we got the double dip last year of Corman
Speaker 1: Carrol and Gunnar Henderson on that special right last year
Speaker 1: is astounding because that is really hard work, because you're
Speaker 1: such a great prospect person and you pushed hard for it,
Speaker 1: and I was along for the ride and I put
Speaker 1: my money where your mouth was basically, which just sounds gross.
Speaker 2: Don't do that again. Don't do that again. Don't put
Speaker 2: all right.
Speaker 1: Let's do that, Eric Barty, Okay, I'm a Spotify listener,
Speaker 1: but I call it Today's show Live. What does puppet
Speaker 1: Joe look like? So I think the only to do that?
Speaker 1: Do you want to do that? Do it through the
Speaker 1: full effect where I leave the box.
Speaker 3: Oh, I mean if you want to see the box effect,
Speaker 3: sure you could. Okay, so here you go. So hey yo, everybody,
Speaker 3: let me tell you about whyatt Langford Pitchers can't win
Speaker 3: al Rookie of the Year.
Speaker 2: I know it all Welsh, your dummy, heyo.
Speaker 1: It's pretty good. That's excellent. All right, let's do some fun.
Speaker 1: So I've got so much more to get you. It's
Speaker 1: gonna be a long showy folks. Hope you love this.
Speaker 1: Frankie Montas, who I just dropped last week. Finally Struck
Speaker 1: got nine guys yesterday nine guys. Ellie dela Cruz is
Speaker 1: tenth to Homer. I was a day late on Ellie
Speaker 1: de la Cruz. All this is not fun at all.
Speaker 1: This is all in just for fun, but it's really
Speaker 1: not fun at all. It's annoying. David Peterson's back. Uh
Speaker 1: he pitched well six and two thirds innings. Kybert Ruiz,
Speaker 1: oh for four. Ruiz is now down to one ninety
Speaker 1: nine batting average, a two thirty nine OBP and a
Speaker 1: two eighty eight slugging Welsh. Any thoughts on Kybert Ruiz.
Speaker 2: Yes, I have one.
Speaker 1: It's good. Also Ken Rosenthal saying that the Padres are
Speaker 1: showing interesting Garrett croosch ay thoughts.
Speaker 3: Of course they are any white Sox. They won all
Speaker 3: the White Sox, all the white sock Dylan Garret.
Speaker 1: They had a Triple A affiliate.
Speaker 2: They officially it's Chicago West.
Speaker 3: The The bigger kind of report actually was going around
Speaker 3: is that not only like are the Podgers interested in Crochet,
Speaker 3: but that the White Sox are just throwing it out there,
Speaker 3: that like Luis Robert probably gonna get traded.
Speaker 2: He returned yesterday.
Speaker 3: I don't know if we had that anywhere hit a
Speaker 3: homer and then I think he got hurt, like right
Speaker 3: at the end of the ninth inning. But Robert came
Speaker 3: back hit that homer, and then all the reports out
Speaker 3: there is the White Sox are willing to look at
Speaker 3: moving him and Garrett Crochet. They're in that full full rebuild. Actually,
Speaker 3: don't blame them, because they've got a litany of great
Speaker 3: young pitching prospects that are ready to come up. I
Speaker 3: think any move that they make, it's gonna be centered
Speaker 3: more around big hitting. So a team like the Mariners
Speaker 3: would make a lot of sense for Robert. And we'll
Speaker 3: see about.
Speaker 1: Robert to the Mariners makes me run to the board
Speaker 1: to invest in them for the World Series. And I
Speaker 1: already have a small investment in them already, Mariners and Phillies.
Speaker 1: Eric thought that it was a real puppet. Now, Eric,
Speaker 1: and when we get to twenty five thousand, we're gonna
Speaker 1: have real puppets of ourselves do the entire show.
Speaker 2: So I did too.
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie here, of course is going you people.
Speaker 3: I people may have online this weekend looked around on
Speaker 3: Amazon type of puppets they have to see if there
Speaker 3: was a Joe looking puppet, which is.
Speaker 1: They're great because now on all of Welsh's social media
Speaker 1: all it says now it's all advertisements for puppets anywhere.
Speaker 3: You ever wanted your own custom puppet on Etsy like that,
Speaker 3: I don't know. I need an affordable one that looks
Speaker 3: like Joe and I don't know. Also like do I
Speaker 3: want my hand up puppet Joe or do.
Speaker 1: I want who oh, let's continue on, Let's not do
Speaker 1: that rookie looky Connor Norby won for four with a Homer.
Speaker 1: I want to know about this one though, because Logan
Speaker 1: Evans the Mariners apparently they're talking about moving into a
Speaker 1: relief world.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: He was terrific in the month of May. I was
Speaker 1: look at the game log he was picturing for Double
Speaker 1: A Arkansas. He's been terrific, especially over the last four
Speaker 1: or five starts. There some good strikeout numbers for him
Speaker 1: as well. Twenty three year old right hand or now
Speaker 1: he might get moved to that bullpen, which might make
Speaker 1: him move faster along to the Mariners themselves. Your thoughts
Speaker 1: on this movie or is this gonna be a prospecting
Speaker 1: guy tomorrow to talk about?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: No, why would we talk about relief pitching prospects.
Speaker 1: And I meant from a Dynasty perspective, like that, the
Speaker 1: fact that they seem so high on him they want
Speaker 1: to get him up to the major leagues. He's not
Speaker 1: a reliever, he's a starter. Just moving him into a
Speaker 1: relief role to get him up to the big leagues quicker.
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, yeah, but there's a lot of starters
Speaker 3: in the mind. I'm not saying he will be a
Speaker 3: relief pitcher moving forward, but there's a lot of guys
Speaker 3: that are kind of designed to be relievers. There's a
Speaker 3: guy I've talked about a lot who was an AFL
Speaker 3: last year, Ameliano Toyoto with the Rangers, got those like
Speaker 3: one hundred and two hundred and three. He's still a
Speaker 3: starter in the minor leagues. He's gonna be a reliever
Speaker 3: at the major league level. This doesn't mean much.
Speaker 2: It actually could.
Speaker 3: Hurt Dynasty because if they love him in that role,
Speaker 3: look at the rotation, Look at the who are they
Speaker 3: gonna get. How are you gonna get Logan Evans in
Speaker 3: unless you have an injury that rotation is I don't think.
Speaker 1: It's this year. I think it's maybe a next year thing, okay.
Speaker 3: But then the prospect guy Connor Norby's the more exciting
Speaker 3: one that we talked about him yesterday.
Speaker 2: The norms I kind of pooed on, like.
Speaker 3: Ten and small bench, twelve team leagues. But he goes
Speaker 3: out hits. His first major league hit is a home run.
Speaker 3: This was exactly why he was gonna hold down Holiday.
Speaker 2: Exactly why Holiday can't win that Rookie of the Year award.
Speaker 2: He's not coming up anytime soon.
Speaker 1: He's not.
Speaker 2: It's bad.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's bad. It's bad, all right. Three up and
Speaker 1: three down. Bobby Wit three for five with two homers,
Speaker 1: Louise Robert two for four with a homer. Mad and
Speaker 1: Ryan Mountcastle also Mike Mayer's favorite human two home runs,
Speaker 1: five rubies for him. Three down, Hazus Lozardo nine runs
Speaker 1: on nine hits, nine runs, seth Lugo five runs. He
Speaker 1: was no Bueno, six hits. There no bueno for him.
Speaker 1: Tristan McKenzie five runs for him as well. This is
Speaker 1: funny because Nick in the chat here was like clairvoyant.
Speaker 1: This was like five minutes ago. Nick says, Joey p
Speaker 1: and Welsh, since lazarro is gonna be on the three down, Like,
Speaker 1: does Nick have access to the show sheet today? How
Speaker 1: is that? Okay? You got us Nick a good job.
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on moving him for maybe a
Speaker 1: Devers package with Altuove? I don't know if you can
Speaker 1: get Devors in a package for him, but Altuve maybe
Speaker 1: that you might be able to pull that one off.
Speaker 1: What do you think Welsh so.
Speaker 2: Altuve and and Lozardo to get Devers? Is that what
Speaker 2: he's trying to do?
Speaker 1: He's oh, oh, that's what he's trying to Oh, I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't understand it because I.
Speaker 1: Have Devers pack, so Lozardo and Altuve for Devors. I
Speaker 1: don't know if that gets Devers done. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: If you can move Lozardo and it gets you Devs, yes,
Speaker 3: If you had to move Altuve in Lozardo to get Devers, yes,
Speaker 3: moving Lizardo yes. I've been kind of a like, oh,
Speaker 3: maybe Lozardo and a new team things might be positive,
Speaker 3: Maybe a team like the Braves. Whoever is gonna acquire him.
Speaker 3: I don't know, man, he the inconsistencies have been out there,
Speaker 3: so I don't know how super super excited I feel
Speaker 3: about Lozardo, but if you can move him to get something, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 3: By the way, a guy who could have been on
Speaker 3: this list, just want to point out, but he had
Speaker 3: a lot of unearned runs. Just want to say, shot
Speaker 3: Toomanaga another they were what I say, I said.
Speaker 1: Show I think he said show. I think you did.
Speaker 2: I did not say show too. I said Shota, Chotamanaga, Shota.
Speaker 1: He gave up a show girl.
Speaker 3: He gave up another five runs, but I think like
Speaker 3: four of them were unearned. But just want to point
Speaker 3: out that's two starts where he's getting banged around a
Speaker 3: little bit. He had a good swinging with percentage, but
Speaker 3: exit velocities you had on the fastball a one oh
Speaker 3: eight and a one oh eight.
Speaker 2: Also on the splitter, splitter.
Speaker 3: Getting hit up a tiny bit more and a little
Speaker 3: bit less effective.
Speaker 1: So not's going off the rails today.
Speaker 2: I did I did not say showto No.
Speaker 1: I not't even know what they're talking about. I can't
Speaker 1: even bring up with they're talking. I don't want to
Speaker 1: cancel the chat. So many injuries, let's fly through them
Speaker 1: and get to the bets and the home run calls
Speaker 1: A deep breath. Christian Xavier is going to undergo Tommy
Speaker 1: don surgery. No brainer there, Andre's moon. I was dealing
Speaker 1: with a back issue after colliding at home. Played Alex
Speaker 1: Bregmann expras on his hand negative, but probably will miss today.
Speaker 1: Jack Flawery was removed from Tuesday's start due to back.
Speaker 1: Titan Robby Ray. If he's float around the waiver wid
Speaker 1: maybe it's time to add Robbie Ray. Scoreless inning Tuesday
Speaker 1: and a minor league rehab start. I like that Jung
Speaker 1: Hu Lee surgery on the shoulder finally happened today. Bobby
Speaker 1: Miller minor league rehab start. This week. You also had
Speaker 1: Robert Gasser left elbow. The MRI came back clean, so
Speaker 1: that's good news for you. Max Scherzer to winning simulated
Speaker 1: game on Tuesday. Maybe a real life game later this week.
Speaker 1: Edwin Diaz minor league rehab assignment Thursday he scheduled for
Speaker 1: and Anthony Rendon could reserve zoom excuse me light baseball
Speaker 1: activities this week, but when asked about it, Rendon went, eh,
Speaker 1: I don't feel like it.
Speaker 3: It's like, nah, I'm good, Thanks Pal. I almost went
Speaker 3: to the Robbie Ray one. I just had stuff going on,
Speaker 3: but he pitched out here against Felman Selston, by the way,
Speaker 3: who Robbie Ray struck out all three batters and the
Speaker 3: only person to do anything was film In Selston. Yesterday
Speaker 3: Mariner's one of the Mariner's top prospects who hit a
Speaker 3: double off of Robbie Ray as he was working back. Also,
Speaker 3: Keaton Win worked that same game and he followed up
Speaker 3: Robby Ray. So just pointing out for anybody that's looking.
Speaker 2: For those guys. I know I saw that.
Speaker 1: Go cards Car. It's so good I'm not even gonna
Speaker 1: say it on the podcast. You gotta watch on the
Speaker 1: YouTube channel, by the way. Also Uncle Ted shout out here.
Speaker 1: Alec Burlson, another guy from the waiver Wire video. If
Speaker 1: you're not watching these videos, the trade video on the
Speaker 1: Waywire video we do every week, you're doing it wrong. Now. Look,
Speaker 1: at some point here this month, they're probably gonna phase
Speaker 1: out into pieces of this show, most likely too, because
Speaker 1: we're ramping up the football cover tier fantasy pros, but
Speaker 1: we're still gonna do waver Wire Talk. We'll probably end
Speaker 1: up doing it a segment here in the show, but
Speaker 1: still subscribe to the channel. Go out there, watch these
Speaker 1: They're very good stuff. Real quick. Javier obviously a huge
Speaker 1: loss here for the Houston Astros rotation. Just from a
Speaker 1: depth standpoint. Aarraghetti also was dealing with an injury too. Like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, it just feels like Houston's windows shut.
Speaker 1: Do you feel that way? That's what it feels like
Speaker 1: to me.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 3: I think Houston will be one of the aggressors. I
Speaker 3: do not think they will sell off. If you think
Speaker 3: that windows shows what.
Speaker 1: Do they have to use to move to get guys?
Speaker 2: Oh, you mean like assets to trade you want.
Speaker 1: If you don't have the goods to get it done.
Speaker 2: No, I mean, well you got Looper Fido, They've got.
Speaker 1: Jacob mill It's a terrible idea.
Speaker 3: They've got Kennedy Krona. They've got some hitters. They've got
Speaker 3: some lower, lower level guys as well. They've got pieces.
Speaker 3: The problem is they don't have a lot of great
Speaker 3: pitching prospects to trade from, but they do have some
Speaker 3: hitting prospects. They did it with Drew Gilbert. They were
Speaker 3: able to move Drew Gilbert and Ryan Clifford out. They
Speaker 3: could do and I think they would consider doing another
Speaker 3: one of these type of moves. I don't know if
Speaker 3: it would be for like you know, a lizardo. But
Speaker 3: you're gonna have to pinpoint teams that are willing to
Speaker 3: sell off. I think they're gonna ultimately buyers. They spent
Speaker 3: on Hater, They've got still a couple pieces of that
Speaker 3: rotation to work with. They've got a great lineup. Jake
Speaker 3: Myers has been great.
Speaker 2: They're like rotation depth away.
Speaker 3: That is why I think they're gonna go and make
Speaker 3: an acquisition and not give up.
Speaker 1: It's time to stay red hot, every buddy. We are
Speaker 1: in a streak this week, and it's time for Wednesday's
Speaker 1: Best Bets of the Day with Joey p and the Welsh,
Speaker 1: brought to you by Bet three six five Bet five
Speaker 1: bucks get one hundred and fifty and bonus bets when
Speaker 1: used the promo code leading off. But you have to
Speaker 1: use the promo code leading off. That's part of the deal.
Speaker 1: Eighteen year over in Kentucky gambling problem called one hundred
Speaker 1: gambler or one hundred bets off in Iowa. Terms and
Speaker 1: conditions apply. Welsh red Hot me red hot right now,
Speaker 1: Let's keep it going. Saint Louis Cardinals on the money
Speaker 1: line against Houston today getting plus one fifty on this
Speaker 1: Michaels on the mound, Bregman probably, I haven't seen the
Speaker 1: lineup yet, but sketching, all right, he's not gonna be there, Tucker.
Speaker 1: Is he gonna be in this lineup? Have we seen
Speaker 1: him yet appear in this lineup? So you're gonna be
Speaker 1: missing some pieces here for this lineup plus one fifty.
Speaker 1: This is a huge potential road win, big money bet
Speaker 1: here today. I love this one straight up on the
Speaker 1: money line, No no qualms about this one.
Speaker 3: Noll.
Speaker 1: Houston's a little weak right now. The airs out of
Speaker 1: the balloon a little bit too, with some of these injuries.
Speaker 1: Severina over four and a half strikeouts plus one o
Speaker 1: six against the Nationals today. More on that game in
Speaker 1: the second and then the Phillies on the run line
Speaker 1: plus one twenty five at minus one and a half
Speaker 1: versus Milwaukee with Aaron Nola on the mound. The parlay
Speaker 1: of the day, folks, the metsa Nationals same game parlay.
Speaker 1: Severino I mentioned earlier that over four and a half strikeouts,
Speaker 1: you're getting a plus one oh six. Add in Pete
Speaker 1: Alonso to record a hit, just got to record a hit.
Speaker 1: He's going against Patrick Corbin today. Have you seen the
Speaker 1: numbers for pet Alonzo against Patrick Corbyn? Five career homers
Speaker 1: and forty four at bats, nine rebies hitting three eighteen
Speaker 1: with a thirteen hundred ops. So yeah, I think we're
Speaker 1: good to go here on that same game, Parlay, Alonso Severino,
Speaker 1: lock it up, Welsh. What do you have for the people?
Speaker 3: Well, we got some similarities. Also, you said you've been
Speaker 3: on a hot streak three and oh yesterday. I needed
Speaker 3: a good one of those. And give you guys that
Speaker 3: other free play glass now smacked.
Speaker 2: I just didn't put that on the bet card. That
Speaker 2: smacked as well. So let's see if we can pick
Speaker 2: a back up.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with that Pittsburgh and that Dodger game.
Speaker 3: Paul Skeens is on the mound, and there's some actually
Speaker 3: pretty good support people want to play on the pirate side.
Speaker 3: Trying to find a way that I wanted to support
Speaker 3: and get into this game. Can't play the first five,
Speaker 3: it didn't make sense. James Paxson has some bad expected numbers,
Speaker 3: but some good surface level. So I'm going to hope
Speaker 3: and expect that the runs are going to be suppressed
Speaker 3: for the most part. I don't want to bet on
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh's offense, so I'm gonna take the full game under.
Speaker 3: It's at eight and a half, going under right around
Speaker 3: like one fifteen, one eighteen. You're gonna find that. So
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be playing that. Paul Skeens is going to
Speaker 3: do some of his work, Paxson gonna hold down Pittsburgh,
Speaker 3: and we're not gonna score a ton of runs. On
Speaker 3: the opposite end, you mentioned that Met Washington game. How
Speaker 3: bad has Patrick Corban been? In fact, they've been and
Speaker 3: Sevarino hasn't been so great himself. He's been giving out
Speaker 3: three or four runs over his last three or four
Speaker 3: games as well. I'm gonna take and I'm going one
Speaker 3: step above because the standard line is four and a
Speaker 3: half runs.
Speaker 2: Over, but it's a little too juiced through the first
Speaker 2: five innings.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go over five and a half runs through
Speaker 3: the first five and I'm getting plus money at one
Speaker 3: oh five. A lot of algorithm stuff has got this
Speaker 3: going around five and a half runs in general, So
Speaker 3: I'm gonna just bet that Corbyn, Patrick corbyan gets hit
Speaker 3: up a little bit. Peter Lonzo, as you mentioned, and
Speaker 3: we did this yesterday.
Speaker 2: With the Yankees. We're back on it again.
Speaker 3: I'm going to be tailing Philly run line minus one
Speaker 3: and a half. It's plus money. I think you've seen
Speaker 3: plus one twenty five. I've seen plus one ten. Either way,
Speaker 3: it's plus money to back Aaron Nola on the run line.
Speaker 2: With the Phillies. It's a tight day. There's a lot
Speaker 2: of tight stuff, if you know, if you're trying to
Speaker 2: get some edges. I didn't find a whole bunch of edges.
Speaker 2: I also didn't want to get into like.
Speaker 1: Plus one fifty. I'm telling you, I think that that's
Speaker 1: a fun one. That's a really good one right there.
Speaker 3: I'd love to play some money lines too, but I
Speaker 3: just didn't even find something I wanted to pair with
Speaker 3: the Phillies money line.
Speaker 2: So that's why I'm playing the run line. So these
Speaker 2: it's a tight that's trying to go another three and zero.
Speaker 2: Those are mine.
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what, even my part of the
Speaker 1: day is only plus one sixty, right Like I put
Speaker 1: those two things together, I'd rather just if I'm gonna
Speaker 1: put one bet on there, I think it's Saint Louis
Speaker 1: Catch in Houston and this is one of the things
Speaker 1: you take advantage of in the betting world when you
Speaker 1: see a team that's missing some of the regular starters
Speaker 1: out of their lineup. I then you have to plug
Speaker 1: in some other guys, you know, to kind of fill
Speaker 1: the spots. It's a great opportunity to take advantage of that,
Speaker 1: especially when you see plus money on your way team
Speaker 1: like that. And the Cardinals at Gorman's been red hot,
Speaker 1: you know, like there's been some guys Mason Winn we've
Speaker 1: talked about been outstanding lately. The Cardinals are swinging some
Speaker 1: bats right now. So those are your best bets of
Speaker 1: the day for Wednesday. Make sure you download the Betting
Speaker 1: pros app, start betting smarter, not harder, and make all
Speaker 1: your bets over on bet three six five. All right, Welsh,
Speaker 1: I am. It's stagnant on the home run board there.
Speaker 1: It is the same as yesterday. I'm still at seventeen.
Speaker 1: The leader is still the leader. I'm keeping it simple today.
Speaker 1: I told you eleven hundred career ops against Patrick Corbin.
Speaker 1: A bunch of dingers. Pee Alnzo goes yard yesterday. Peter
Speaker 1: Alonzo tends to get on a little hot streak sometimes
Speaker 1: and when he's locked in and he's facing Patrick Corbin.
Speaker 1: Give me the polar Bear today. Will you pick him
Speaker 1: for your home run call?
Speaker 2: I was gonna pick him too, but pick money to go.
Speaker 1: Come on, let's do it.
Speaker 3: Come on, I'm gonna stay in that game. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: stay in that game. Oh, I know, Francisco Lindor.
Speaker 1: Oh, that's what I was gonna get. I was gonna
Speaker 1: get Lindor.
Speaker 2: With Lindor, I'm gonna go with Lindor in this one.
Speaker 3: He's also got a decent at least from a contact history,
Speaker 3: not this big of a home run history versus Corbyn
Speaker 3: like Pete Alonzo does. But I'm gonna stick with you.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with Lindor. It also makes sense because
Speaker 3: I'm betting the over in that game for runs to
Speaker 3: be scored. But yeah, you know, it's a little dangerous
Speaker 3: sometimes Patrick Corban can have those weird games. Baseball's been
Speaker 3: weird lately. But in a normal world, this is the
Speaker 3: type of game that.
Speaker 2: You bet on. The Mets just beating up Patrick Corbin
Speaker 2: early and often so.
Speaker 1: Patrick Corb goes seven score listenings tonight.
Speaker 2: Probably that's all the Corbyn's not good. This year.
