Speaker 1: of baseball to talk about, a lot of stuff going

20
00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,959
Speaker 1: on the weekend. I just saw the cycle this morn

21
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: with Kelly and Mayor. It was great. Go check it out.

22
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: I watched it this morning when I was on my walk.

23
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 1: They had some great conversations about Spencer Schreider. That continues

24
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: to be the hot topic everywhere. But I want to

25
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: turn my attention to the Braves for a moment, because

26
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,639
Speaker 1: the Diamondbacks what a comeback yesterday down ten to five,

27
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 1: biggest night didn't comeback in franchise history. You know, you

28
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: meet these moments in a season, Welsh, and it feels

29
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: like this was a really tough one for the Atlanta Braves.

30
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is going to be the

31
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 1: one that they can come back from, but certainly a

32
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: horrible moment from them, and as surprisingly, I think tough

33
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: moments coming out of the Diamondbacks in this series because

34
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 1: with the Corbyn, Burtons news and all that stuff going on,

35
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: they could just shrivel up and die and they have not.

36
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 2: Also with the Braves, how apropos that not only did

37
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 2: they have a bummer in their bullpen, they also have

38
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 2: it to blew it in their bullpen. Bummer and blew

39
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 2: it both in there, not to be topped by rysl Iglesias,

40
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 2: who I think legitimately might be out of this role.

41
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 2: They brought up Craig Kimberl and I know everybody kind

42
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 2: of rolls their eyes, what was that with the Braves

43
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 2: and stuff? But Rysolglazias has been horrible. He gave up

44
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 2: three He blew this save. Diamondbacks. Both of these teams

45
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 2: have actually kind of gone back and forth of just

46
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 2: who needs it more throughout the season. Diamondbacks have been

47
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 2: on an absolute push down. But I think from a

48
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 2: Braves perspective, the thing that I'm holding most is I

49
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 2: think Rysol Iglasias might lose some saves and we might

50
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 2: want to look at maybe it's going to be Lee

51
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 2: or Kimberl. And on the Diamondback side, Brandon Fott has cooked.

52
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 2: You know, he got saved in this game. He has

53
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 2: I think the worst qualified era of any starter. Now

54
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 2: his expected era had been three runs over, so he

55
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 2: was done. You can let that pack. But it was awesome.

56
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 2: I mean, it was awesome to see katl Marte continues

57
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 2: to drop bombs. Cortman, Carroll getting you know, getting hot

58
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 2: or just trying to find some consistent syasons we were

59
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: talking about him. But absolutely ridiculous game if you had

60
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 2: a chance to watch it and Diamondbacks.

61
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 1: Win, Yeah, I sure do. Let's get to some more baseball.

62
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: Framber Valdez incredible performance against the Pirates, eleven strikeouts, seven innings,

63
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: three for three on the bets yesterday good stuff. Not

64
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: so good again. Maybe I'm just tired, maybe whatever it is,

65
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: but I rage drop some players this morning in our

66
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: fantasy pro league. I'm it's a ten team league, and

67
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 1: one of the rage drops was Jesus Lozardo. I just

68
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,799
Speaker 1: I'm I'm sorry. I don't know what's going on there,

69
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: but I don't want to stick around to find out

70
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: the way her Wire's two good second straight outing where

71
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: he's been terrible eight runs in two and a third innings.

72
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: These aren't like, oh, four runs, five runs, twelve and

73
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: then eight. So his first eleven starts of the season,

74
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: I went and did the math here, right, uh two

75
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: one five ERA, one point one eight whip. The last

76
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: two starts he has an ERI of thirty one point

77
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: seventy six with a four to five eight whip and welsh.

78
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: I don't know what the answer is to. I mean,

79
00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: everyone's like, oh, don't get worried, but he's got the

80
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: Cubs neck week. I'm not playing against the Cubs offense

81
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: next week. There's no way. Yeah.

82
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 2: I think they said the twenty runs he's given up

83
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 2: over the last five is like the most to qualified

84
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 2: really pitcher has ever given over two starts and for

85
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 2: five innings. It's just ridiculous. I was looking at his

86
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 2: stuff in the game log to find differences in comparisons

87
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 2: versus what he's been doing on the year versus like

88
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 2: what he did in his last start. Number one thing

89
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 2: that stands out is he went primary sweeper in this

90
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 2: he had to dip down. It looks like his fastball

91
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 2: usage he'd been throwing it around thirty four percent of

92
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 2: the time, which is probably setting up the sweeper a

93
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 2: bit more. This one he went from thirty four percent

94
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 2: to twenty three percent and then his sweeper became his

95
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 2: primary pitch. Thought that was pretty odd. Pretty low zone

96
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 2: percentage on the fastball, under fifty on the sweeper, So

97
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 2: your top two pitches are barely over fifty percent. This

98
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 2: is like what Zach Allen was going through. You can

99
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 2: throw some strikes, but you're not throwing the right strikes.

100
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 2: The thing that I'm like, semi optimistic about is his

101
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 2: sweeper still looks great as far as you know with

102
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 2: rate and CSW percentage, but also like he didn't really

103
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 2: get hit. He didn't have a bunch of like hard

104
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 2: hit balls. I think it's a pitch mix thing. I

105
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,840
Speaker 2: actually m okay, if somebody rage drops like Joe that

106
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 2: he's just Lozardo, I think I might look to pick

107
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 2: him up, or might look to speculate soon. I think

108
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 2: you'll get right, because you also have to ask yourself,

109
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 2: what is more of the anomaly. Is it the what

110
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 2: eleven starts prior to this, or is it these two starts?

111
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 2: What's the anomaly? But a ten man league does allow

112
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 2: you and gives you just too many of the ability.

113
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: I just look, it's out of nowhere. And he had

114
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 1: been so good, which we all knew wasn't gonna last.

115
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: But this isn't bad.

116
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 2: This is like, oh, it was historically bad, technically historically

117
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,279
Speaker 2: bad these last two games, and it's just you wonder

118
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 2: mentally what that might take its toll.

119
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 1: And look, and a twelve team league, you're sitting them

120
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: next week. Don't throw him back out there. In fact,

121
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 1: here's a question, how many good starts do you need

122
00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,280
Speaker 1: to see from him before you throw him back out.

123
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 1: Is it just one again the Cubs, or you need to.

124
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 2: I think one. I would love to compare it to

125
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 2: the Like I said, it's not a big thing. But

126
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 2: what you do see is he threw a lot less

127
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 2: forcing fastballs, which again like this is another Gallon thing too,

128
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 2: just it's just in my brain from watching him this year.

129
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 2: Is like, if you are not able to set up

130
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 2: your other pitches and then that becomes your primary force,

131
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 2: that's what killed Gallon. He couldn't throw fastball for a strike,

132
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 2: so then you start going heavy, change up and knuckle curve,

133
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 2: and then guys aren't offering at that. And I think

134
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 2: if you have the same thing, Lozardo gets all his

135
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 2: whiffs not off a fastball but sweeper and change up,

136
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 2: and if he's trying to go to those and guys

137
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 2: aren't offering on it, things are messed up. So he

138
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 2: might just need to get a little bit more heavy fastball,

139
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 2: throw more strikes for it, and then it's gonna set

140
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 2: up all the other stuff. I just think it's fixable,

141
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 2: It's all I'm saying.

142
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: I think so I think, well, it's fixable, but I

143
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: don't know, man, we'll see if he has a third

144
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,279
Speaker 1: bad start against the Cubs, lookout.

145
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 2: I mean maybe you want to own him and then

146
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 2: bench him against the Cubs. That's like what I would

147
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 2: probably do. But again, a ten team, like you said,

148
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 2: there's probably too much good stuff out there. But Lozardo

149
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 2: had been like.

150
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 1: The benches are so shallow in that league too, I

151
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: just won't want to have options. I feel better about

152
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: it rather stream guys. You know, Marcus Simeon homer twice

153
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: as he continues to be red hot this week. Of

154
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: the last seven games as batting average or five hundred,

155
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 1: he's been terrific. Tyler sodas from it at two run

156
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 1: homer and a grand slam. As the A's beat the

157
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: crap out of the Twinkies yesterday fourteen to three. Max

158
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: Freed got back on track. He was terrific against the Guardians,

159
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: one hit, just two walks and six scoreless sittings. Ryan

160
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: Pepio again has been quietly really good over the last month.

161
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 1: He struck out eight guys, six innings, two run baseball.

162
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: He never seems to get wins. Ryan Pepio, no matter

163
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 1: what goes on, like he's just no decision man. But

164
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: Pepio certainly seems like he has figured it out again,

165
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: and these last few starts definitely going the right direction.

166
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: I think he's a sneaky bilow in a lot of

167
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: leagues right now.

168
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, he had a forty two ERA in April, and

169
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 2: then since then he just rattled off at two to

170
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 2: one five in May, and then this June start was

171
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 2: pretty good. He hasn't given up over three hundred runs

172
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 2: since April fifteenth, so there's some pretty decent consistency. He

173
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 2: doesn't walk a ton of guys. He's not a huge

174
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 2: massive strikeout there. I think he's just like a good

175
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 2: starting picture to round out kind of the lower parts

176
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 2: of your rotation. I don't know if there's tons of upside.

177
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 2: I think I'd still rather have Taj on the upside

178
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 2: long term, but Pepio is definitely like running into a

179
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 2: level of consistency. I will point out though he has

180
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 2: a full run higher expected ERA than he's got, so

181
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 2: he's got an elite three point two four point two

182
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 2: to one expected, So there's just kind of a little

183
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 2: regression any thing in there. You know. Again, with like

184
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 2: low strikeouts twenty one percent walk seven, that's average like

185
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 2: he's just like an average pitcher. I don't think I'd

186
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 2: have a massive leash on him if things get bad,

187
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 2: but they haven't been.

188
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 1: Nice to see some first time chatters here with us today. Luke,

189
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: it's Luke Eric Ruby. First timers again for joining us.

190
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: Subscribe to the channel, and of course you get rid

191
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: of those nasty commercials when you're a subscriber. Use your

192
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 1: Amazon on Prime there and get rid of those and

193
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,199
Speaker 1: watch us add free here on Twitch. That's what you

194
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: want you to be. All right, Let's get to some

195
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: more headlines from yesterday in Major League Baseball. A couple

196
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: of Rangers things to go over here. Robert Garcia blew

197
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 1: a save, so the opportunities are coming, but unfortunately for

198
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: him it did not work out. So we'll continue to

199
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 1: monitor that. If only they had another place they could

200
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 1: go for saves somehow. Anyway, Jack Lighter, no decision, Five

201
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: innings of one run baseball. He's one start away from

202
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: breaking out of NEPO babyism. Just one start. We'll see

203
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: if he blows it at the end.

204
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 2: Five amazing starts.

205
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: And amazing amazing oh stop stop, amazing innings. Oh my god,

206
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Oh my god. I'm gonna throw my

207
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: underwear on the stage for five innings. I'm so excited.

208
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 2: Comparative to how you talk about him, this is cy

209
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 2: young type of stuff because you think this guy should

210
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 2: be pitching in low A five starts. What's gonna happen

211
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 2: is he's gonna get hit in this next one and

212
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:00,319
Speaker 2: you're gonna come on here and I told you so,

213
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 2: and it's gonna be the dumbest, most annoying thing on

214
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 2: the planet. Because he said his next.

215
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: Really good starts, next start again.

216
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 2: I hope he does it so you can eat that crow.

217
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 2: But we know, like he'll give up four and runs

218
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 2: and you'll find some caveat to it. Jack Lder has

219
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 2: been pretty damn good through fifty innings. He's got a

220
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 2: three and a half right better, Yeah, he's got I

221
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 2: mean again, like is he elite? Absolutely not? Barrels too much.

222
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 2: He doesn't have a good K minus walk percentage and

223
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 2: has expected era is is four point five six. So

224
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 2: like he's gonna come back down to earth.

225
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 1: Next starts against the Twins.

226
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 2: What it's not just nepo baby stuff.

227
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 1: One two, three, four five. It looks like his next

228
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: start is going to be against the twins.

229
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 2: He didn't give up nine. He doesn't give up nine,

230
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 2: and then it's gonna be like I'll be right, yeah, yeah,

231
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 2: you know, but I'll be right, which is right.

232
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 1: But how dare you call it? How dare you call

233
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 1: him awesome? And five inning starters? Chris Sale is awesome

234
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: Toik Scooble is awesome. Jack Lighter is becoming serviceable. Let's

235
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: not get it over our heels. I gave him cit

236
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: maybe said is one start away and I won't call

237
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,719
Speaker 1: him a NEPO baby anymore. That's it.

238
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 2: But come on and or not fro here They were

239
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 2: fighting on Twitter guys yes yesterday.

240
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: Speaking of eating crow. Somebody got another home run yesterday,

241
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: Pete crol Armstrong to run dinger. Now, Pete Alonzo did

242
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,439
Speaker 1: not go yard yesterday? Did he did he go yard yesterday?

243
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: I don't think so, because that's what you picked, which

244
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:23,679
Speaker 1: means we're tied.

245
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 2: That's not who I picked. I I picked I Peter

246
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 2: Alens was my guy today. Yesterday I picked someone who

247
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 2: didn't get a homer. So that's what I do know.

248
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, there you go, So we are officially tied

249
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 1: on the home run boards.

250
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 2: I told you you're gonna go past. I'm on the

251
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 2: cold I wanted.

252
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:39,960
Speaker 1: To be there at the same time as you.

253
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 2: I want to hardcore cold streak. I'm not getting another

254
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:43,199
Speaker 2: home or the rest.

255
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: Of the year, all right, I don't forget to see

256
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 1: Kumar Rocker the rest of the year. He got sent down.

257
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: If only they could make him a closer, that would

258
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: be nice, Which again brings us to our Chasing Challenger segment.

259
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 1: That's right, Chasing Challenge is brought to you by Microsoft,

265
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: the expertise to say, bring it on. In this segment,

266
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: we're gonna bring on the Rangers' bullpen for a second.

267
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 1: Can we do that? Please? Look, Luke Jackson didn't work,

268
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: Garcia's not working. You've got a guy with a live

269
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 1: arm and a big presence and a big fastball who

270
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 1: isn't long for this season, who is struggling as a

271
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 1: starting pitcher. Why not give it a shot. Put him

272
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: in the bullpen. See what he could do at this point.

273
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: What's the worst that could happen? You save some innings.

274
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 1: He gets his confidence back just by blowing guys out

275
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: of the water for a few appearances. And then you

276
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: go okay, now go back and stretch out again, and

277
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: maybe we can use you as a starter, or maybe,

278
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: just maybe Kumar Racker can take all of his skill set,

279
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: move it into the ninth inning where being a little

280
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 1: effectively wild is actually a good thing, and become the

281
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 1: closer for the Rangers as the bats, like Marcus Simeon's

282
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: starting to get back on track. So Rangers, it's right there.

283
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: I'm hanging to you on a platter. Take it. And

291
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 2: As much as I think you're wrong, on the lighter stuff.

292
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 2: I think you are right on the rocker stuff.

293
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: Thank you.

294
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 2: This is the point that they should do it. They should.

295
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 2: You know, he's a ninety five mile an hour those

296
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 2: two different versions of a fastball. He can pump it

297
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:44,719
Speaker 2: up in a short inning. Maybe he can get to

298
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 2: ninety six to ninety seven. He's got an awesome slider.

299
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,319
Speaker 2: It's got a forty two percent with rate, and then

300
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 2: he can even go into a change up in a

301
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 2: cutter and maybe he can simplify his approach. He doesn't

302
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 2: walk a ton of guys either, which is something that

303
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 2: works in his favor. The six percent walk rate. You

304
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 2: would want that in the bullpen. Just let him throw

305
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 2: gas and then let him drop that slider in. He

306
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 2: does not look good as a starting pitcher. He's got

307
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 2: an eight era. Put him in the bullpen because your

308
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 2: bullpen sucks and it stinks, And I don't think that

309
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 2: would be the worst thing in the world to do.

310
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 2: And Bochi got so pissy when it got brought up.

311
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 2: What you should You should absolutely do it, because you're

312
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 2: putting out Luke Jackson and Chris Martin and Robert Garcia.

313
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 1: No good, He's no bueno. Shout out to JD. Rese

314
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: them with prime. Thanks JD. All Right, let's get to

315
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: the rookie lookie Jack keg Leona's first big league hit.

316
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: So that was a good thing there against the Cardinals.

317
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: He also played right field, mad a nice play there.

318
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: Matt Shaw three for five, three singles, a stolen base,

319
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: two run score. Fill in that stat sheet. We said

320
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: it would happen, and it did. Look at us Kyle

321
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: Teal getting promoted so finally slashing two ninety five, three

322
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: ninety four four two eight homers, thirty Ribi's the fact

323
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: that he's playing some first base means going to be

324
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: in the lineup every day. I know Elko got called

325
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 1: up to Kyle Teal is going to be in the

326
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: lineup every day. Catcher, first base, DH, she's gotta get

327
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: at bats. Well, I think it's time. I think you

328
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: go out there, and I think you're aggressive on Kyle Teal.

329
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: I don't see him getting sent back down anytime soon,

330
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 1: even if he struggles. The future is now for the

331
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: White Sox.

332
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I talked a ton about Kyle Teal

333
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 2: and I was wrong because they ended up going towards

334
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 2: Edgar Carrow. But then we got Teal back, and I

335
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 2: think it actually surprised a lot of White Sox people.

336
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 2: I love the idea that he's going to play some

337
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 2: first base. He's got you laid it out right there.

338
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 2: He can do some dh I think he can be

339
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 2: the second catcher, he can play some first get him

340
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 2: playing time. You hit two ninety five in triple A

341
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 2: and almost four hundred OVP. He's got power, he can

342
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 2: steal some bases. There's some decent offensive threat in his game.

343
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 2: And I love the White Sox doing this. Stop putting

344
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 2: out the Andrew Vaughns and the Michael Tatel, like, stop

345
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 2: putting out these guys that don't do anything for your

346
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 2: organization long term, unless you're trying to build up their

347
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 2: trade value, I suppose. But yeah, give us Elco, give

348
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 2: us Kyle Teal, give us Caro, and then at some

349
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 2: point give us Colson Montgomery. Just give us the young guys.

350
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 2: Kyle TiAl definitely has some nice fantasy value. And that's

351
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 2: a great question right there, of Teal versus Agustin. It's

352
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 2: tough without seeing Teal at this moment, but I do

353
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 2: I think a Gustin Augustin is going to have like

354
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 2: a bigger power potential, but I think Teal might be

355
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 2: more well rounded long term.

356
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 1: He's a better OBP guy. He's gonna yeah. I think Look,

357
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: I think power is I think power is not that

358
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 1: far off. Maybe Ramirez a little bit more in the

359
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 1: power side. It's all so hard, but consistency in leagus

360
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 1: where strikeouts cut against you OBP situations points leagues. I

361
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: want Teal, even if he struggles a little bit early on,

362
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: I think patience will be rewarded. And I think it's

363
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: interesting because it seems like the White Sox have a

364
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 1: plan with these guys Teal my draw. These are guys

365
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: that are you know, they they walk, they have good

366
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 1: at bats, you know, they kind of fill the statue.

367
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: They're trying to get a better baseline. I feel like offensively,

368
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: which is good, it's a good thing your point to

369
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: steal some more bases. But at least there these guys

370
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 1: get on base, and that's that's good. Let's swing and

371
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: miss in this White Sox future.

372
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 2: Well to your point, like a guy that Colson Montgomery

373
00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 2: was someone who thought might break camp with the team,

374
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 2: but he has massive swing and misissues and they sent

375
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 2: him down. They send him down to the developments here.

376
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:06,120
Speaker 1: Did you see recently.

377
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, That's what I'm saying is he was so

378
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 2: bad and they hated his swing so much they send

379
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 2: him back down here to Arizona to rework his swing,

380
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 2: and then he has come back up. His stats still stink,

381
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 2: but it's because of the longevity of the season. As

382
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 2: of recent he has picked it back up. But to

383
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 2: your point, it's like they're not gonna they're not throwing

384
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 2: these guys in the deep end, like they're gonna get

385
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 2: them right. And they've got that plan, and Colson has

386
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,719
Speaker 2: a chance to be like an impact power bat if

387
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 2: he figured out some of the swing stuff which may

388
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 2: be happening.

389
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 1: Last sixteen games for Colson Montgomery two seventy six, three

390
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: eighty two, five eighty six slash, that's pretty good.

391
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,400
Speaker 2: Love it, and we'll probably see him post I would imagine,

392
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 2: like post All Star Game would be a good time

393
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 2: for him to start getting.

394
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,679
Speaker 1: After the Futures Game. I think he might be in

395
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: the Futures Game even you never know which we got.

396
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: You know what, maybe next week I saw you can

397
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: start voting for U you know, All Star Game. We

398
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,640
Speaker 1: should do that on the show next week.

399
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 2: I saw the Rockies, the Rockies, but they're like, vote Rockies,

400
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 2: and I was like, which Rocky Who I actually think

401
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 2: the well I got.

402
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: The answer for that. I think I think the answer is.

403
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to think about it. Tom Todd, Hilton.

404
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 1: Todd Helton, Yeah, I want to vote no the offre walk.

405
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 1: My god, why can't I keep want to say Brenton Doyle,

406
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 1: He's no, not no, not Brent Doyle. The other outfield Beck, Jordan.

407
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 2: Beck, I don't know.

408
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: I think that's the only guy.

409
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 2: Having to have a player is massively stupid. The bad

410
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 2: players that get put into these All Star Games. I

411
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 2: think Joe Mantiply with the Diamondbacks had to one year,

412
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 2: like let's just put the best players, not a player

413
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 2: per team. But they're like, vote Rockies.

414
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: Are you going to be? We don't die. We Mantiply

415
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: gotta be. Christian Moore three for five with a homer

416
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 1: on Thursday at Triple A, but but Chandler three runs

417
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: in two innings than a rain delay unfortunately, want wah.

418
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: So that was it for Bubba Justin Crawford Walsh's dude

419
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,439
Speaker 1: three for three, three ribies. I don't know what more

420
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 1: he's got to do.

421
00:18:58,119 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 2: You got to go over the game, by the way

422
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 2: last night with a quad issue though, yeah, I know,

423
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,159
Speaker 2: one started speculating who do you think makes to the

424
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 2: majors first, Bubba Chandler, Brandon woodrow.

425
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: Bubba Buba Chandler.

426
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:10,199
Speaker 2: I don't know.

427
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:15,400
Speaker 1: More on Woodriff later. God, I mean, I couldn't leave

428
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 1: the show with it because I would just walk off

429
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 1: the show. Three up and three down Junior Cameronaro home

430
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: run man? Has he been hot? Oh my god? Cal

431
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 1: Raley two for four with a homer. He's at the

432
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 1: twenty four to three RBI. Cal Rowley should get a

433
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,959
Speaker 1: little bit more MVP love, Like I know Aaron judges

434
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 1: where he is and where he should be and all

435
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,640
Speaker 1: that stuff. I just think it should be a smaller

436
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 1: gap between the two of them because cal Rawley is

437
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,919
Speaker 1: catching on top of hitting twenty four home runs. I

438
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: just think as of right now, that would be fair.

439
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 2: Tanner Scott also defensively is one of the best defensive

440
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 2: catchers in the league too.

441
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, he's really good, but catch.

442
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:51,919
Speaker 2: They asked him about the home run derby two and

443
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 2: he said he wants to do it, so be on

444
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 2: the lookout for that great.

445
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 1: I'm sure everything will go swimmingly after that. Tanner Scott

446
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 1: scoils ninth inning is the Mets dropped one to the Dodgers,

447
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 1: but the Mets still have a better record than the

448
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: Dodgers do and they're in first place over the Phillies. God,

449
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: it's such a that made that perked me up some

450
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 1: today because I'm tired. Mitch Killer not great, six runs,

451
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: eight hits. These are the downs for today. David Festa

452
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 1: eight runs, three and two thirds. Oh so, welcome back

453
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: to the Shokes and not good. Cole Reagan's five runs,

454
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 1: three innings of work. So Cole Reagan's. You know, we

455
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 1: spent a lot of time crapping all over the season

456
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: of Spencer Strider. Can we can we take a couple

457
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: of moments and maybe shift the bowl over to Cole

458
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: Reagan's for a moment? Can we please?

459
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 2: Sure? I mean, what do you want to you want

460
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 2: to get into it?

461
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean, where are we at with

462
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 1: col Reagan's. I know, but this is the second time

463
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 1: we had the first start coming back and it's been

464
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: bad and we've had injuries and frustrations. I mean, is

465
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,640
Speaker 1: another guy too, that I think has just been wildly

466
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:52,359
Speaker 1: inconsistent this year and a massive frustration based on his ADP.

467
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean one, it stands out right here. He

468
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 2: had a thirty five percent zone fastball percentage, so he

469
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 2: could not the fastball in the zone. You show me

470
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 2: that alone, I would probably tell you he's gonna get

471
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 2: banged around. And that's what happened. He left his change

472
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 2: up in the zone. This is really weird slider in fastball,

473
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 2: just not in the zone at all. It was really

474
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 2: only the change up and then a little bit of

475
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 2: the knuckle curve. He was throwing those for strikes. That's

476
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 2: not a recipe for success. But he has a five

477
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,959
Speaker 2: point one ERA, one of the best expected eras in

478
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 2: the league at two point five to nine, So that's

479
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 2: a positive regression play. Not that it's going to get

480
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 2: there or anything like that, but you know, he's still

481
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 2: got the stuff. I'm a buye on Cole Reagan's right now, Like, Okay,

482
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 2: there's definitely some negatives, but he is over it's not

483
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,920
Speaker 2: the right word usage of the word, but his pitch

484
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 2: types against batting average is over performing or it's getting

485
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 2: hit more than it should expect. Batting averages lower against

486
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,120
Speaker 2: the fastball, lower against a change up, lower against the slider,

487
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 2: lower against every single pitch type. So there is some

488
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 2: positive regression coming. So I'm a buy on call Reagans.

489
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 2: But you know you were worried about starting Bryce Harper

490
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 2: coming off of an injury. You're not worried, but sitting

491
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:07,399
Speaker 2: here worried.

492
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,159
Speaker 1: I had the question was all these other options? I

493
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 1: was like, and you know, one of the options was

494
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 1: Camon Arrow. I was like, well, I'm not sitting Camon

495
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 1: Arrow and Camaro at a home run that same day.

496
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 2: So but my more point is like, I'm more worried

497
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 2: about pictures coming off of the iya than I ever

498
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 2: am a hitter, So I'm going to give him the

499
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,199
Speaker 2: benefit of the doubt. Also, there's there's a lot of

500
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 2: stuff in his game that I think carries over a

501
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 2: year over year, but it's not been good for sure.

502
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 2: But this is screaming. This is going to be my

503
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 2: probably next week pick of a of a trade candidate

504
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 2: is going to be called Reagans.

505
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: Michael Harris didn't hit a home run yesterday to me

506
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,680
Speaker 1: because I wore a wig or two or three. Now,

507
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: Riley Baldwin and akoon Ya. I'm just checking up just

508
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 1: to see how he did. He did it with the

509
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: Diamondbacks too, Yeah, that's why I was checking. I was like,

510
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: he did have two hits. I was looking at the

511
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 1: box score just now, so that's good raises average at

512
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:57,680
Speaker 1: two thirty two. That's encouraging discouraging. Let's get to the injuries.

513
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: Brandon Woodriff. He's gonna go back out on a rehab

514
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 1: assignment eventually because it's a right elbow contusion and he's

515
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 1: gonna need more time, which means more rehab, so he

516
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 1: could be out till the end of June. I've heard

517
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: other reports say the All Star break is when he

518
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 1: might come back. I don't know, Welsh, I just just

519
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,640
Speaker 1: I'm out of the business of Branda Woodriff. I don't

520
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 1: know what this is.

521
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 2: How you said it something like he was gonna go

522
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 2: on the Oregon Trail by the way, You're like, he's

523
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 2: gonna hit the He's gonna hit the old rehab trails soon.

524
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 2: And it's like, oh no, Brandon Woodriff has dysentery.

525
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:45,919
Speaker 3: I've got the Brandon Woodriff blues. He's never gonna pitch

526
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 3: for the bruise I got them Brandon woodrid Blues. He's

527
00:23:51,880 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 3: never gonna pitch again. That's the news.

528
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 1: Brand wound of Blues, everybody right here on the show.

529
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's it would be comical if it

530
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 1: wasn't so tragic. I feel I also hate rage dropped

531
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,159
Speaker 1: him from that league today too, because.

532
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 2: I just comedy is tragedy. My friend.

533
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't do it anymore. I just can't.

534
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,160
Speaker 1: I just can't do it. Just done. I'm done, I'm out.

535
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: Matthew Liberator removed due to an injury, so his velocity

536
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 1: was down some issues there, So what's the panic button

537
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,719
Speaker 1: here on Matthew Liberatory? He says it's just a fatigue,

538
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 1: which is fair. You know he's throwing a fair amount

539
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 1: of innings this year. You know he's taking the ball

540
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 1: o your fifth day for the big club, you know,

541
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,479
Speaker 1: finding consistency. So what do you make out of this

542
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 1: recent injury for Libertor?

543
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm obviously a little bit worried about it,

544
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,679
Speaker 2: especially if he carries over but you know, if he

545
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 2: pooh pooed it, and you know, he's never really like

546
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 2: done this in a major league sense of going this

547
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 2: far and being this successful. I mean him a little

548
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,120
Speaker 2: bit of benefit of it out because he's been pretty good.

549
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 2: But I might be a little bit more cautious in

550
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,880
Speaker 2: his next start if I'm really hugging Ratios or something.

551
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,919
Speaker 2: Maybe I don't don't start him to see if this

552
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 2: is gonna carry over. But I'm, like I said, cautiously

553
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 2: optimistic that he'll be okay.

554
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, uh all right, let's move on to another depressing

555
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 1: one here. I'm just I'm just the Brandon woodrid thing.

556
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 1: I saw it yesterday and it's just I just you

557
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 1: know that Schmidt meme from New Girl where he just

558
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: goes like like that was me. I just I could

559
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:28,199
Speaker 1: not fathom it anymore. Shane Bieber scratched from his minor

560
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 1: league rehab start. Everything I've been going just fine for him.

561
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,959
Speaker 1: He seemed to be going okay, renewed soreness in his elbow.

562
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 1: So what's going on is this nobody can do the

563
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 1: surgery anymore? Did doctor James Andrews retire and like nobody

564
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 1: learned how to do it. Everyone's just watching it on

565
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: YouTube and doing Tommy John surgeries and no one knows.

566
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 1: I'm not like, oh, we gonna do anymore we'll just

567
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 1: have this rubber band and we're just gonna put this

568
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 1: in your elbow and it's gonna be fine.

569
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,879
Speaker 2: And it's just like a girl she's doing the makeup video.

570
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 2: She's just gonna put on lipstick.

571
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:55,360
Speaker 1: She's like, hey, guys, welcome, I'm gonna do this. Amazing

572
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,199
Speaker 1: Tommy John surgery today. If you're looking to remake your

573
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:03,160
Speaker 1: pitching career, highly recommend Tommy John surgery tomorrow.

574
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 2: Fabulous blush bieber. His arm is coming open.

575
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 1: But seriously, I mean, here we go again. I mean fair.

576
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: Maybe this is just soreness and we're just being careful,

577
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: but it's hard not to get immediately ominous about all

578
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 1: of us this year one.

579
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 2: Hundred percent thinks so like there's a He left Arizona,

580
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 2: he goes in for this. He had his first start.

581
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:27,640
Speaker 2: He was pretty phenomenal in that first start. He gets

582
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,159
Speaker 2: out of Arizona and bam, things are a problem. I

583
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 2: don't know, maybe there's a weather thing, no hot here

584
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,120
Speaker 2: go to Akron. I don't know, but yeah, I'm I'm

Speaker 1: Here we are, Jane, We're an Akron.

587
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,240

588
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:44,080

589
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,119
Speaker 2: like rains or something like that, like come out of

590
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 2: the dry Arizona weather. Maybe there's some weathery things I

591
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 2: don't know.

592
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what wesh. Next year we have to

593
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 1: really be care Like next year we're gonna fall into

594
00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 1: the same Garrett Cole is gonna be up there and

595
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,719
Speaker 1: he's gonna be and like, I don't know SP thirty

596
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 1: and then by you know, the time we get to

597
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,400
Speaker 1: draft season, he's gonna be SP twenty five or twenty two,

598
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: and we're gonna have to learn the same lesson again.

599
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,439
Speaker 1: I feel like last year we're just like, what are

600
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 1: we doing?

601
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,879

602
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 2: was like, this is trying to get the sunburned, to

616
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:57,679
Speaker 1: Let's start with Detroit Tigers. Scooble on the mound for

617
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,880
Speaker 1: Detroit today. Love that, So let's go oh with scooball

618
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 1: against the Cubs. I know the Cubs are good lineup.

619
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 1: Schooble's better minus one and a half on the run

620
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 1: line plus one twelve and then Jack cag Leon, how

621
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 1: about over one and a half total bases at plus

622
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 1: money plus one twenty five and give me Juan Soto

623
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,120
Speaker 1: is heating up to drive it around at minus one

624
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 1: ten against the who Colorado Rockies. Not to mention the

625
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 1: fact that Juan Soto has four at bats against SENSATELA.

626
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 1: Two of those hits. He's got those four at bats

627
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: or home runs. So let's go. It's time, Welsh. Where

628
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 1: are you going for your best best for Friday?

629
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Cincinnati. We are taking a

630
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 2: first five money line on Cincy today. I'm trying to

631
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 2: pull back up the matchups. Why, oh yeah, because the Diamondbacks.

632
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 2: Edwardo Rodriguez is not good. Watch him in his rehab

633
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 2: stint where he gave up three homers to eighteen year

634
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 2: old Complex League players. His fastball is dead, his changeup

635
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 2: looks incredible. But if he goes to it early, I

636
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 2: think the Reds are going to get to him right

637
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 2: out the shoot. I think they're gonna take an early lead.

638
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 2: Nickoladolo has been pretty great two three one era. He

639
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 2: minimizes the Diamondbacks offense early. Edwardo gives it up early,

640
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 2: first five money line. If they're tied, we push. If

641
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 2: they're up, we win minus one fifteen. Going against the

642
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 2: Diamondbacks with the Reds Oneo Cruz stolen base, we are

643
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 2: going to bet that Oneal Cruz is gonna be able

644
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 2: to get on base versus Joe Ross. And if he

645
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 2: gets on base, you know there's one thing happening. He

646
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 2: is stealing. It's almost three to one Onell Cruz. They

647
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,720
Speaker 2: need to be aggressive against the Phillies. They will be

648
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 2: Oneil Cruz stolen base plus two seventy and Manny Machado

649
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 2: we're gonna go over total bases plus one hundred just

650
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 2: get me in the business against the Brewers and Chad

651
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 2: Patrick Manny Machado two total bases today. Those are my plays.

652

Speaker 1: It's good alliteration and whips made a I believe a

673
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 1: prediction and it's true. Soda weekend home run call for Joe.

674
00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 1: That's right, that's where we're going, Sodo plus and I

675
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 1: feel like Emperor Palpatine and Star Wars. Oh, I'm afraid

676
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 1: when we come back on.

677
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 3: Monday, I will be right there on the home run board.

678
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 1: Yes, of course, Welsh, I saw you took a Met

679
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 1: this weekend as well.

680
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with the polar Bear. You tried to

681
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 2: get me to have him yesterday, which I wish I did,

682
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 2: so we'll just take him through the weekend. Big PD

683
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 2: PDA Alonzo for the home run calls. Yes, and thank you,

684
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 2: Mets going up. I believe this is the Rockies matchup.

685
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 1: Oh, it's the Rockies in Colorado.

686
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 2: Since it's go today, So perpetuity for me, mister Pete Alonzo.

687
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 2: If I'll ever see the board again, Hey, it should

688
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 2: be the bet. Do we think either one of us

689
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 2: will get on this board before specifically you are gone,

690
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 2: but then there'll be a point where I leave as well. Well.

691
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: I hope to see us both there. That's my goal.

692
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 1: My goal is Monday, we get back to the show

693
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 1: and we're both back on the board. Wonky's there with us,

694
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 1: and we have one day in the sun where all

695
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: of us are up there.

696
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 2: We never had that at the beginning of the year,

697
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 2: right because you were cold to start.

698
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 1: I was ice cold to star. Where's on this board too?

699
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 1: Is he even calling home runs anymore? Does he even lift.

700
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 2: Bro cycle videos? You can't partake with us.

701
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 1: And that's what happens. You know, you start doing on air,

702
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 1: you know, camera stuff, you start getting a little bit

703
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 1: full of yourself.

704
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 2: Holding green M and m's, you know, your whole thing stuff. Yeah,

705
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 2: it's the whole thing.

706
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: You only answer slack messages between two and two fifteen

707
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: in the afternoon. It's a whole Thing's the whole thing

708
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 1: is Star. Now, that's what happens. So now what are

709
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 1: you gonna do?

710
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 2: Uh?

711
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 1: You know, so what are you gonna do? I like Wonky.

712
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: Wonky can manage to do all of those things and

713
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: make home run calls still, So that's why Wonky's the best. Well,

714
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 1: let's take a couple of questions here on the way

715
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: out today. Here's one, Uh, this is just funny. Would

716
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 1: you if it comes back first or my dad comes

717
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 1: back from getting milk at the store? I think your

718
00:32:53,520 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 1: dad comes back first. Yeah, seriously, Chase my draft or

719
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: Parker Meadows.

720
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 2: Who would you rather have h if it was a

721
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 2: points league? Probably my draft, but I'm gonna go with

722
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:06,760
Speaker 2: Parker Meadows.

723
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 1: All right. Here's one. Uh, do tilor Augustin we did?

724
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: Is Adley turning things around finally? Of course he goes

725
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: off this week on my bench. Well that's that's the

726
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,959
Speaker 1: way it goes sometimes. But Rutchman has seemingly turned things

727
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 1: around away. He's such a good player, He's such a talent.

728
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 1: Do you imagine at some point things get right for him?

729
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 1: That whole Orioles team him, everything has just collectively gone

730
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:30,440
Speaker 1: awful to syear for them.

731
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm looking too. I mean, right off the shoot,

732
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 2: you can see he's about forty points lower babbit than

733
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 2: his career. But like, he's had two horrifically bad months

734
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 2: two oh five and April. He hit one eighty two

735
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 2: in May without any type of breakdown, like, that's just

736
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 2: not adle Ady just makes a bunch of contact and

737
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 2: if you look at his underlying stuff, here's the other

738
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 2: crazy part. Everything looks better year over here. He's barreling

739
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 2: the ball. Then he's more than he's done. He's hitting

740
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 2: the ball harder, more than he's ever done. He's his

741
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 2: walks are up. That launch angle sweet spot, if you

742
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 2: care about that, it's something Mookie does at a high level.

743
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 2: That's up is I mean, everything looks like it's up,

744
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:10,319
Speaker 2: but it ain't. Everything is underperforming right now. So it

745
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 2: looks like there's probably a nice bounce back in store

746
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,440
Speaker 2: for Adley, But I would also caution it with like

747
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 2: who's Adley been? Adley might be one of the most

748
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 2: like expectations versus results don't equal a lot because he's

749
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 2: not a twenty five plus home run hitter.

750
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,959
Speaker 1: Averages Matt Widers two point zero.

751
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, kind kind of. I mean he's better.

752
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: People will forget people for Yeah, the Matt Wieders prospect

753
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:43,719
Speaker 1: lower was like the next Mike Piazza. That's what we're

754
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:44,720
Speaker 1: hearing about. Matt Wieders.

755
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 2: You're not wrong, I.

756
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: Mean, I think you know if you didn't live through it,

757
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 1: you don't understand it, and you're like, I remember that guy.

758
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 1: He was like, you know, on the Nationals for a

759
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: cup of coffee at the end of his career. No, No,

760
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 1: Matt Wieters. Once upon a time was supposed to be

761
00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: like the big catching impact prospect and people bid every

762
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 1: year and it just never really worked out. And I'm

763
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:04,839
Speaker 1: not saying it's the same, but I'm just saying it's

764
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: the same organization. So take that with a Greate assault,

765
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 1: you know, Dylan Bundy another you know, it's fun. You

766
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,919
Speaker 1: start to go through the Orioles prospect lore. It's had

767
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 1: some hiccups. It's definitely had some hiccups over the years.

768
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: Catch a replacement for Shay Langeliers from Lake or Baldwin

769
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 1: or Dylan Dingler. I'm going Baldwin. You want your Dingler,

770
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 1: you want Baldwen.

771
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 2: I do not want the Dingler. Keep it away from me.

772
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with the Drake. Baldwin over three hundred powers,

773
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,000
Speaker 2: still up, Team Moore playing time.

774
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:34,360
Speaker 1: Sounds like a Diddy party. Hey, Reagan's and adamis for

780
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:46,760
Speaker 1: All right, Louis heel is he worth stashing?

781
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, He's come back at some point, man, I will

782
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 2: see this too.

783
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,799
Speaker 1: That's what people told me about Brandon Woodruff. Just want

784
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: you to know.

785
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 2: I mean, that's a good that's not it. That's not

786
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 2: a bad point we talked about. I'll talk about the

787
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 2: people obviously deserved to be talked about. Man, it was

788
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:06,359
Speaker 2: great video. Lance Brasdowski, who joined us on Fantasy Fest,

789
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 2: did and it was all big. He just dropped it

790
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 2: yesterday and it was based around the Yankees and what

791
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 2: they're doing pitching development. It's a pretty nerdy, like heady

792
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,360
Speaker 2: video if you're not into that stuff, but it talks

793
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,920
Speaker 2: about how far ahead this organization is and they're pitching developed,

794
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 2: and how Max Fried has shined, how Ryan Yarborough has

795
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 2: gotten better, how Carlos Redon has dominated, and what they're

796
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 2: doing in the minors and what they're specifically doing with

797
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:34,239
Speaker 2: change ups with guys. And to think that Luis Heel

798
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 2: on the verge of all this is going to be

799
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 2: coming back soon.

800
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:37,439
Speaker 1: I had.

801
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,239
Speaker 2: It was a really really great video to kind of

802
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 2: get excited long term about just Yankees guys. So with that,

803
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,320
Speaker 2: once heel is back, there's such big strike up potential

804
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,399
Speaker 2: and what they're doing over the last year or two

805
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 2: gives me, yeah, exactly. Yay Sports is talking about it.

806
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 2: The one seemed changeups that a lot of these guys

807
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:56,799
Speaker 2: are throwing in the success they're finding from it. That's

808
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 2: one thing that helped Ryan Yarborough that I would just

809
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 2: put that over to say that, like, when Luis heel

810
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:04,960
Speaker 2: is back, the Yankees might be at the tippy top

811
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 2: of pitching development right now and our unlocking stuff that

812
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 2: I would feel pretty pretty positive about it. If you

813
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 2: want to find it. Lance Brasdowski just look for his

814
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,640
Speaker 2: YouTube channel and it's up. It's like why the Yankees

815
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 2: or you know whatever, great pitching development. It's just the

816
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 2: most recent one.

817
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, drop your comments below to in the video your

818
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:26,439
Speaker 1: favorite prospect that you kept on drafting that never worked out.

819
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,240
Speaker 1: I saw somebody put Brandon Wood.

820
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I almost Brandon Wood too.

821
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:31,279
Speaker 1: That was a good one too.

822
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 2: Dallas McPherson too. That was one of those.

823
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 1: Sure, you know, but that's always fun because you go

824
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 1: through the whole. I believe this guy, this guy, this guy,

825
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,080
Speaker 1: and you keep just every years getting roped into it

826
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 1: somehow and it just never works out.

827
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 2: You know who I was obsessed with and obviously a

828
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,799
Speaker 2: little bit diamondback, but I love Connor Jackson. But I

829
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 2: was obsessed with Carlos Quinton. And I was working in

830
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 2: local radio sports radio.

831
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 1: He had one glorious season too.

832
00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 2: And I was working in a sports radio station and

833
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 2: he was up, and I was heavy baseball, and I

834
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 2: told one of the guys, I'm like, watch this debut

835
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 2: Carlos Quinton home run tonight in his debut, and he did.

836
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 2: And then they had to give me like because I

837
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 2: was just like a you know, tech operator, and they

838
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 2: had to give me like on Eric. I was obsessed

839
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 2: with Carlos Quinn. I just Carlos Quinton was going to

840
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 2: be a thirty plus home run. That was one of

841
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 2: those dudes, Carlos.

842
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,360
Speaker 1: I remember I had a team that had Carlos Quinton

843
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 1: and Josh Hamilton on it. It was a keeper kind of situation.

844
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, this team's gonna be so good

845
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:35,280
Speaker 1: for so long, not so much, not so much, YOA

846
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,319
Speaker 1: Mancata from just a hunch in there. That's a good

847
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: one too. I like that.

848
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,320
Speaker 2: I like that though. Your favorite prospect that just never worked.

849
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 1: I want to read these over the weekend. You watch

850
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,319
Speaker 1: on the YouTube your favorite prospect that you just kept

851
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,239
Speaker 1: chasing that just never happened. I'm curious who that is.

852
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 2: Who do you think it'll be this year too? Who

853
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,239
Speaker 2: do you think this year's prospect that's never gonna work?

854
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 2: Is gonna be? Like Joey Dell would have been one

855
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 2: from a couple of years ago. Who's going to be

856
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,360
Speaker 2: the big failure from this class?

857
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, it could be a lot of them, all right,

858
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 1: everybody that'll do it for us, But the story of

859
