0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:52.760

0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:56.000

0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:08.600
<v Speaker 1>and I went down man, Um obviously without me here,

0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:11.920
<v Speaker 1>and I felt I feel like I probably should at

0:02:12.000 --> 0:02:16.760
<v Speaker 1>least mention it, right. That's cool? Yeah, yeah, I mean look,

0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:19.519
<v Speaker 1>UH would like to be transparent with everyone who's listening

0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:21.919
<v Speaker 1>and watching. I addressed everything that was going on to

0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:24.800
<v Speaker 1>the best of my abilities. Give a shout out to

0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:27.320

<v Speaker 1>want to give you a shout outs. You wanna your

0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:35.480
<v Speaker 1>thoughts whatever? Feel free? Man? You know or is yours?

0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:37.800
<v Speaker 1>You know? I I've I've talked to Corey and Scott

0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:42.240
<v Speaker 1>a bunch um since last week, and you know, I

0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:44.200
<v Speaker 1>want nothing the best of them. I I missed them,

0:02:44.240 --> 0:02:47.760
<v Speaker 1>I support them, and I worked the il Corey since

0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:50.800
<v Speaker 1>I was in college. Scott obviously got all of us

0:02:50.800 --> 0:02:53.600
<v Speaker 1>story in this place and it's not gonna be the

0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:57.640
<v Speaker 1>say without him, So we certainly support them wherever they

0:02:57.639 --> 0:03:00.920
<v Speaker 1>will go. And nothing for the best for them, you know. Yeah,

0:03:00.960 --> 0:03:03.960
<v Speaker 1>it resulted in us having an extra hour here, but

0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:12.440
<v Speaker 1>not this way, you know, not that way. Yeah, I

0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:15.880
<v Speaker 1>can't disagree. That's that's all I got. That's that's that's

0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:18.239
<v Speaker 1>that's the brunt of it. That. That's I have nothing

0:03:18.280 --> 0:03:20.280
<v Speaker 1>really to add or say. It just it is, you know,

0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:23.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, you know if I mean, I talked to

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:25.760
<v Speaker 1>you a lot last week, more than we should have

0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:28.200
<v Speaker 1>been talking. Um, I talk to you a lot last week.

0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:31.360
<v Speaker 1>I talked to you, um everybody. So it is what

0:03:31.560 --> 0:03:36.560
<v Speaker 1>is um And yeah, that's that's that. A vacation was

0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:39.800
<v Speaker 1>not as relaxing as it should have been, unfortunately given

0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:43.520
<v Speaker 1>the circumstances. But what I've had has happened. Um, well,

0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:45.000
<v Speaker 1>nothing but the best for them, nothing for the best

0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:49.120
<v Speaker 1>for us. We appreciate your support each and every day. Yeah, definitely, man,

0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:52.240
<v Speaker 1>look uh and for anyone out there who you know

0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:56.280
<v Speaker 1>it's angry about it, like rightfully, so we understand where

0:03:56.280 --> 0:03:58.720
<v Speaker 1>you're coming from. You know, we're friends with Scott and

0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Corey first and foremost as well, UM Dress a little

0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:06.120
<v Speaker 1>bit last week. I've spoken to them UM during Good Spirits.

0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:10.720
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, yeah, absolutely show goes on the show. Indeed

0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:13.400
<v Speaker 1>goes on. UM. I also has given a pretty appreciational

0:04:13.400 --> 0:04:16.240
<v Speaker 1>honestly by listening to the podcast, UM to be better,

0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:19.720
<v Speaker 1>to work harder, and to be better for you, uh,

0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:21.760
<v Speaker 1>the listener. And we do a lot of high jinks

0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:24.200
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of games, and I probably can't stop

0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:27.440
<v Speaker 1>doing that realistically. I enjoyed when Frank asked me how

0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:30.440
<v Speaker 1>I slept? Um, how did you sleep on vacation? Greg?

0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:33.839
<v Speaker 1>Not as well as I thought. I was sorry neither.

0:04:33.920 --> 0:04:36.440
<v Speaker 1>I didn't sleep all last night either, it was it

0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:38.720
<v Speaker 1>was a bad night. I slept fine last night. Well

0:04:38.720 --> 0:04:40.760
<v Speaker 1>you don't have a quick story. Why why I'm pack

0:04:41.440 --> 0:04:45.200
<v Speaker 1>your quick story from last night? So I got a

0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:47.839
<v Speaker 1>weird charge of my credit card, my am X card

0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:52.600
<v Speaker 1>for eleven dollars and ninety three cents. I think this

0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:54.760
<v Speaker 1>is like it was one of my eleven boxes. I

0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:57.360
<v Speaker 1>didn't buy anything on Amazon. Nobody has like access to

0:04:57.400 --> 0:05:01.640
<v Speaker 1>my Amazon account but me. So I called m X

0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:04.760
<v Speaker 1>and again a month ago, if you remember, my AMEX

0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:07.320
<v Speaker 1>card was charged to Chewy dot com, which is like

0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:10.840
<v Speaker 1>dog food and that's not really So I got a

0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:14.080
<v Speaker 1>new card. No dogs for Sasmania. I love dogs. I

0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.800
<v Speaker 1>don't have a dog near future. Please don't ever get

0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 1>a dog. Well, I mean, I don't ever go to

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:20.400
<v Speaker 1>your house anyway, because well, first of all, you don't

0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:23.160
<v Speaker 1>invite me over. But second of all, I I can't

0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:27.040
<v Speaker 1>do any animals with hair, and it sucks because outlook,

0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:29.880
<v Speaker 1>I want to be able to enjoy dogs. I love cats,

0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:36.560
<v Speaker 1>but allergies, man, they're brutal. I can't. It's tough. I

0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:40.520
<v Speaker 1>can't be around dogs. Please don't get one and then

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:43.640
<v Speaker 1>invite me over. Sure we haven't had pasta night get

0:05:43.720 --> 0:05:48.240
<v Speaker 1>this year. I owe you a lot, Frank. That's all right, man.

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:52.559
<v Speaker 1>Another time I realized that you lunch, we'll do pasta

0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:54.520
<v Speaker 1>night when we prep for the draft. That makes sense,

0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:56.680
<v Speaker 1>I got well. I got a bunch of ideas swirling too.

0:05:56.760 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 1>For auction we're gonna it's gonna be fun. Anyway, what

0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:01.920
<v Speaker 1>was the rest of your story. I don't even know

0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:05.680
<v Speaker 1>where you're going. Basically, charge for dog food last month.

0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:08.200
<v Speaker 1>So I got a new card, the whole deal. So

0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:10.039
<v Speaker 1>then last night I saw an Amazon charge. I called

0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:12.160
<v Speaker 1>a max and this is called Amazon First, It's like,

0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:14.080
<v Speaker 1>it's good charge of my am X for an Amazon

0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:16.720
<v Speaker 1>or just didn't buy anything. I went through my account like, yeah,

0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:19.839
<v Speaker 1>we don't see that, Like, you probably change your bad sword.

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, hey, it's weird. Call you call your credit

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:28.560
<v Speaker 1>card company and do that. I called Amex. They poured

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:31.200
<v Speaker 1>the fraud of getting another new card. So that overnight

0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:33.200
<v Speaker 1>I wake up and I knew it was gonna be

0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:35.720
<v Speaker 1>a very busy and stressful day for me. Today. I

0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:39.320
<v Speaker 1>woke up to a charge of my AMEX from Chewy

0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:42.640
<v Speaker 1>dot com and I'm just like what, I don't know?

0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:46.440
<v Speaker 1>So then I got angry the dog food bandit. So

0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:50.240
<v Speaker 1>then so then I got angry frank because I had

0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:52.920
<v Speaker 1>canceled my card. I did not understand how somebody could

0:06:52.920 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 1>be using my old card that was canceled last night

0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:58.440
<v Speaker 1>to buy stuff overnight. It didn't make any sense to me.

0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:02.440
<v Speaker 1>So I called, I'm actually I got a woman I

0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:04.960
<v Speaker 1>was not I got a moment in seven fifteen this morning,

0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 1>and she was not ready for me. She was just like, well,

0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:11.320
<v Speaker 1>I've told people before too, if you ever have a

0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:13.600
<v Speaker 1>problem with anything corporate, you need to send an email,

0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:15.720
<v Speaker 1>you need to make a phone call. Greg is the

0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:19.960
<v Speaker 1>one to consult with. So so she was just like, well,

0:07:20.040 --> 0:07:22.280
<v Speaker 1>if you have it saved an Amazon or something like Chewy,

0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:24.080
<v Speaker 1>that you could just use the same information. I go,

0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:25.800
<v Speaker 1>how could you usually saved the information if the card

0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:29.280
<v Speaker 1>is not active anymore? The card was reported for fraud?

0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:32.880
<v Speaker 1>How is that card still able to be used? She

0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:34.640
<v Speaker 1>as well, if it's saved, you know, they they they

0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:36.440
<v Speaker 1>can still like that. It doesn't make sense to me.

0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:41.520
<v Speaker 1>Hung up on her called called Chewi. I'm like, listen,

0:07:41.600 --> 0:07:43.000
<v Speaker 1>this is the second time in two months there's someone

0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:46.120
<v Speaker 1>who ordered Chewy, Like, can you tell me what credit

0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.320
<v Speaker 1>card they use? And of course they can. It was

0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:51.480
<v Speaker 1>my one from January which ended in you know four numbers.

0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 1>Like that card was reported for fraud. How is that used?

0:07:55.520 --> 0:07:57.560
<v Speaker 1>Because yeah, you know it didn't actually go through, but

0:07:57.640 --> 0:07:59.400
<v Speaker 1>it was pending and we marked, like you get the

0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:02.200
<v Speaker 1>money back right at wag. Obviously I just don't understand.

0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:05.280
<v Speaker 1>So I found out it went to some person in Pennsylvania.

0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:07.960
<v Speaker 1>I have provided them my email like my who I am,

0:08:08.040 --> 0:08:10.400
<v Speaker 1>my name on my email address. Yeah, I know this

0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:15.000
<v Speaker 1>went to Suzanne in Pennsylvania. Like what So they went

0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:16.760
<v Speaker 1>to two dot com. Somehow I got my am X

0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:18.840
<v Speaker 1>and then logged it in there. So then I called

0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:22.360
<v Speaker 1>am X back talk to some supervisors like this was

0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:24.560
<v Speaker 1>your morning today. This is my walk to work this morning.

0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:26.200
<v Speaker 1>This is when I got out of the second I

0:08:26.240 --> 0:08:28.600
<v Speaker 1>got out of the shower at seven o'clock this morning,

0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:31.760
<v Speaker 1>and then my walk to work this morning. Was on

0:08:31.840 --> 0:08:36.280
<v Speaker 1>the phone with a Max their account services supervisor, saying

0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:39.160
<v Speaker 1>how is it? How is somebody using my card that

0:08:39.360 --> 0:08:44.080
<v Speaker 1>I called in as fraud two months ago and still

0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:47.200
<v Speaker 1>working that? You know what? Thank you to Apple Pay

0:08:47.559 --> 0:08:49.679
<v Speaker 1>for having a pop up on my phone every time

0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:52.160
<v Speaker 1>every time I charge goes through. I thought about using

0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:55.199
<v Speaker 1>Apple Pay, but it was like stuff like this that

0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:56.520
<v Speaker 1>kind of makes me not want to And I don't

0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:59.200
<v Speaker 1>think it's Apple pays fault. This is good, this is helpful.

0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:02.520
<v Speaker 1>Learn what charge you put all your cards on? Apple Pack. Yeah,

0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:04.960
<v Speaker 1>so I knew it was the second addex was charge

0:09:04.960 --> 0:09:08.120
<v Speaker 1>I get a notification? Do you recommend it? I look

0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:10.000
<v Speaker 1>into it. Do you like check your credit you don't

0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:11.120
<v Speaker 1>have you have a credit card? I feel like you

0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:12.599
<v Speaker 1>don't do it. Took you a while to get a

0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:14.480
<v Speaker 1>credit card, right, No, I mean I've had it for

0:09:14.600 --> 0:09:16.760
<v Speaker 1>like at least three years. It wasn't you know? It

0:09:16.840 --> 0:09:20.599
<v Speaker 1>was Ian Haliberd the Democratic card. But did you like

0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:25.280
<v Speaker 1>check your statement? They line my line every month? Uh no,

0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:27.960
<v Speaker 1>I text, I check it like every couple of days

0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:30.520
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that the things that I bought with

0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:33.360
<v Speaker 1>that credit card are correcting. Else is on it. I

0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:34.880
<v Speaker 1>don't go through like statements, but I chok it like

0:09:34.920 --> 0:09:38.800
<v Speaker 1>every couple of days. So I was someone that similar

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:40.280
<v Speaker 1>checks every cool of days. And then at the end

0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:42.080
<v Speaker 1>of month, I'll just like browse through it to make

0:09:42.120 --> 0:09:43.839
<v Speaker 1>sure if I would have just browsed through it and

0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:46.439
<v Speaker 1>so on Amazon, right, make sense? I probably bought some

0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:48.280
<v Speaker 1>of the Amazon for twelve bucks. Yeah, that makes sense.

0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:51.920
<v Speaker 1>But thanks to this notification on my phone, I was like,

0:09:51.920 --> 0:09:54.960
<v Speaker 1>I didn't buy anything Amazon. My last purchase was batteries

0:09:55.000 --> 0:10:01.200
<v Speaker 1>for downstairs. So that Suzanne depends Vania, Susanna, We're coming

0:10:01.240 --> 0:10:06.280
<v Speaker 1>for you, Susannah, if you're watching man, stop and maybe

0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:09.160
<v Speaker 1>she's stalking you, just stop. Me said, no, everything she

0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:12.000
<v Speaker 1>does about the person she's gonna So anyway, like I

0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:13.280
<v Speaker 1>was saying, I learned a lot when I was on

0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:16.880
<v Speaker 1>vacation about about our show in general. You know what

0:10:17.120 --> 0:10:18.800
<v Speaker 1>what I think a listener would like and a listener

0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:21.319
<v Speaker 1>would not like. So I'd say you that it was

0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:24.240
<v Speaker 1>the weather in Florida and one had one dad day.

0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:29.600
<v Speaker 1>So the rest was with the rest, Like eight plus eighty.

0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:33.000
<v Speaker 1>You saw pictures like thirty degrees in New York. You

0:10:33.040 --> 0:10:36.400
<v Speaker 1>presented pictures of me. I noticed. I also used an

0:10:36.440 --> 0:10:39.599
<v Speaker 1>older picture of you with like your blowout, you like

0:10:39.640 --> 0:10:43.240
<v Speaker 1>a fruity drink. It's fair enough, all enough. Some of

0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:45.000
<v Speaker 1>about my friend acting, he's like a picture Greg just

0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:47.600
<v Speaker 1>laying on a lounge chair with a with a Sam

0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:51.840
<v Speaker 1>summer was actually was eliminated vodka. And then we found

0:10:51.880 --> 0:10:55.240
<v Speaker 1>out dig wire Big was Yeah, that was me and

0:10:55.320 --> 0:11:00.319
<v Speaker 1>my VA saw the gimlets. Yeah, the I p A.

0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:05.640
<v Speaker 1>like a boogie thing. I get it, dude, the I

0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:07.959
<v Speaker 1>p A. I was pumped sod So after listening to

0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:10.240
<v Speaker 1>the podcast on Thursday. I had a Cigar City I

0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:15.679
<v Speaker 1>p a on Saturday night for Junia Admire. Which one's this?

0:11:15.960 --> 0:11:19.200
<v Speaker 1>That's me like it's to be sleeping, having a great

0:11:19.240 --> 0:11:22.959
<v Speaker 1>time sleeping. Yeah, where's the blowout one? We get the

0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:26.400

0:11:31.600 --> 0:11:33.559
<v Speaker 1>But I learned a lot about our show, to be

0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:36.760
<v Speaker 1>honest with you, as someone that was really pumped about

0:11:36.800 --> 0:11:39.160
<v Speaker 1>some of your guests. And here, let me see this one.

0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:41.719
<v Speaker 1>What is this? Let me look at this one that

0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:43.439
<v Speaker 1>doesn't really blow out? Frank, I can still do that.

0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:45.040
<v Speaker 1>Just have jell in my air like that's like my

0:11:45.320 --> 0:11:48.640
<v Speaker 1>same hair like length. Right, that is a long time ago.

0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Fatter face is not fair to say, no, okay back

0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:57.120
<v Speaker 1>then or now then? No, No, I mean the same

0:11:57.200 --> 0:12:01.040
<v Speaker 1>face that great teeth, Greg, Yeah, I look young. I

0:12:01.120 --> 0:12:03.640
<v Speaker 1>look young. I got a filling yesterday. Greg. My mouth

0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:06.400
<v Speaker 1>was numb. It was terrible. You know, Martino, do I

0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:07.959
<v Speaker 1>look young there? Would you say I looked young there?

0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:10.840
<v Speaker 1>I think it's the hair that makes you look useful.

0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:13.839
<v Speaker 1>It's my hair that different. I think you look, U,

0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:17.480
<v Speaker 1>I think that's a young forty. That's a young forty

0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:20.640
<v Speaker 1>right there. You think my hair looks that different? Greg

0:12:20.720 --> 0:12:22.719
<v Speaker 1>just turned fifty, So because I think that was a

0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:24.400
<v Speaker 1>little bit dude, I think that was like a good

0:12:24.559 --> 0:12:29.719
<v Speaker 1>nine years ago. Yeah, we think yeah, yeah, young. Yeah,

0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:34.880
<v Speaker 1>maybe tomorrow we'll see. I want jails sometimes, but not here.

0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:39.440
<v Speaker 1>You're not you don't even you don't even flowering party,

0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:46.959
<v Speaker 1>My hair sounds good. Party. Will that be St. Patrick's Day? Yeah, exactly, exactly,

0:12:47.080 --> 0:12:52.079
<v Speaker 1>and they'll be opening day baseball. Greg, you want to

0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:55.280
<v Speaker 1>get into any baseball, it's not probably save it at

0:12:55.280 --> 0:12:57.240
<v Speaker 1>this point. So the point was I was listening. I

0:12:57.320 --> 0:12:59.280
<v Speaker 1>was really interested about your guest with Drew dig Meyer

0:12:59.520 --> 0:13:02.360
<v Speaker 1>and um Mat Modica and we're all over the place.

0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Last week we had Ian Connor Paul after the show

0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:08.199
<v Speaker 1>for a call in any Singleton posted our show any

0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:12.719
<v Speaker 1>single base and one of your cousins commented on it. Yeah, hey,

0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:17.880
<v Speaker 1>that's my cousin who wants a job very badly. All right,

0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:25.120
<v Speaker 1>and by else I mean Greg. But anyway, the point was,

0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:27.160
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I really want to get the baseball stuff,

0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:29.200
<v Speaker 1>like this is great, Like the gimlet stuff is great.

0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:31.199
<v Speaker 1>I was like, kind of want to hear about baseball.

0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:32.959
<v Speaker 1>And I feel like a lot of our listeners like

0:13:33.040 --> 0:13:34.920
<v Speaker 1>bitch at us for like doing exactly what we just

0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:38.000
<v Speaker 1>did it least sixteen minutes. They're like, oh, you're the

0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:39.559
<v Speaker 1>host of the show, Greg, I kind of get it.

0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:43.400
<v Speaker 1>I gotta get it, you know what I mean everything

0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:45.160
<v Speaker 1>Like you're watching us live like you're kind of enjoying

0:13:45.200 --> 0:13:47.000
<v Speaker 1>the batter or you're listening live with the radio, like

0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:48.960
<v Speaker 1>I get it. You're you're enjoying what we're doing right now.

0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:51.839
<v Speaker 1>We're listening to the podcast, and Frank listens to more

0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:54.240
<v Speaker 1>podcasts than I do. Like I enjoy the banter in

0:13:54.280 --> 0:13:56.880
<v Speaker 1>the podcast that I listened to, but the more battery show.

0:13:56.880 --> 0:13:59.160
<v Speaker 1>If I'm listening, if I'm listening to learn information like

0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:01.880
<v Speaker 1>fantasy baseball, fantasy football, you want to get the information.

0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:04.400
<v Speaker 1>I get it. And that's why you always come off,

0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:06.400
<v Speaker 1>come in so piste off. Well, I do want to

0:14:06.440 --> 0:14:08.520
<v Speaker 1>just do it last seventeen minutes. I get it now.

0:14:10.280 --> 0:14:12.280
<v Speaker 1>I look, I try man. We spoke about this on

0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:16.000
<v Speaker 1>the phone as well. We are we have an interesting

0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:18.599
<v Speaker 1>opportunity here, Greg. It's an interesting medium because we do

0:14:18.720 --> 0:14:22.800
<v Speaker 1>live radio. We do live TV, live digital video, but

0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:26.280
<v Speaker 1>then it also goes on demand in podcast forms, So

0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:30.640
<v Speaker 1>you kind of gotta mix everything together and kind of

0:14:30.680 --> 0:14:33.240
<v Speaker 1>find the best formula that works. And you know, we're

0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:35.200
<v Speaker 1>mixing things here and there. You know, if we're talking

0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:37.560
<v Speaker 1>about baseball players that you like and that maybe I

0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:39.880
<v Speaker 1>don't like, and we'll maybe we'll go back and forth

0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:41.680
<v Speaker 1>on a certain player and we'll we'll get at each

0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:44.000
<v Speaker 1>other and make fun of each other for liking said

0:14:44.040 --> 0:14:46.560
<v Speaker 1>player or you know, getting a call wrong. Yeah, we're

0:14:46.560 --> 0:14:49.240
<v Speaker 1>always gonna do that. That's that's fun. But um, it's

0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:50.720
<v Speaker 1>not even like I'm X cards not gonna bring in

0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:53.120
<v Speaker 1>the listenership, and I don't think so you mean puppy

0:14:53.200 --> 0:14:57.280
<v Speaker 1>Chow or whatever you're talking about about dot Com? Get

0:14:57.320 --> 0:14:59.760
<v Speaker 1>it done, Mike mustak Is one year deal with the

0:14:59.760 --> 0:15:03.320
<v Speaker 1>b yours playing second base. Maybe that gets it done.

0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that gets it done. Greg, I'm really interested. She

0:15:06.800 --> 0:15:10.800
<v Speaker 1>might lose stock is with second base eligibility really interesting

0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:15.960
<v Speaker 1>because you were helping that second basis disgusting. It's it's

0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:20.040
<v Speaker 1>not great, um, mob, It's it's not that deep of

0:15:20.120 --> 0:15:22.960
<v Speaker 1>a position you're looking at it. I mean the tier

0:15:23.080 --> 0:15:26.920
<v Speaker 1>that you really want to be in on is Uh.

0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:31.760
<v Speaker 1>It's probably this mid round of you know, Glaver, Torres,

0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:34.920
<v Speaker 1>Daniel Murphy, Scooter's neet rugenetto Doors. When we've talked about

0:15:35.000 --> 0:15:37.560
<v Speaker 1>Jonathan VR, We'll talk about the tout Wars draft and

0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:40.120
<v Speaker 1>hold in the next hour when out at the end

0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:42.280
<v Speaker 1>of the fifth round. Everyone's trying to find stolen basis

0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:44.960
<v Speaker 1>right now, But after that, I mean after really the

0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:48.000
<v Speaker 1>top ten or eleven twelve up until like Robinson Cano

0:15:48.120 --> 0:15:50.640
<v Speaker 1>he's my twelve rank second base and Greg. After that

0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:53.760
<v Speaker 1>you get into the Jed Lowries of the world, Cabrera,

0:15:54.120 --> 0:15:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Jan Moncata who has upside, but like Dozer, maybe a

0:15:57.920 --> 0:16:02.080
<v Speaker 1>bounce back candidates scope, it's really like top twelve. But

0:16:02.280 --> 0:16:05.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, if you're playing a fifteen team rot a league,

0:16:06.000 --> 0:16:08.240
<v Speaker 1>everyone's gonna need a starting second basement and people are

0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:10.240
<v Speaker 1>also going to dip into the second basement pool for

0:16:10.320 --> 0:16:12.800
<v Speaker 1>their middle infielder. So it's really not that deep of

0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:15.240
<v Speaker 1>a position, and I would argue that I don't really

0:16:15.320 --> 0:16:18.360
<v Speaker 1>love the elite talent up top either. Mosiel Tua has

0:16:18.400 --> 0:16:20.800
<v Speaker 1>the injury concerns. We talked to dr a of Inside

0:16:20.800 --> 0:16:23.840
<v Speaker 1>Injuries about, you know, his knee injury, how that might

0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:28.440
<v Speaker 1>limit his stolen bases this year. Javier Bayas. I've seen

0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:30.600
<v Speaker 1>more people who were kind of worried about Javier Bias

0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:32.280
<v Speaker 1>based on the price you have to pay because he's

0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:35.400
<v Speaker 1>going in like the late first round right now. Last year,

0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:36.880
<v Speaker 1>you know you were getting him in the middle rounds

0:16:37.280 --> 0:16:40.080
<v Speaker 1>and he paid. He was super profitable, maybe the most

0:16:40.240 --> 0:16:42.760
<v Speaker 1>profitable player last year in Fantasy baseball because he gave

0:16:42.800 --> 0:16:44.840
<v Speaker 1>you a first round value. Now you have to pay

0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:47.760
<v Speaker 1>that first round price tag for Javier Bias, something I

0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:50.480
<v Speaker 1>am not going to be doing. Whatsock is fall on

<v Speaker 1>was texting me like, dude, am I coming on the show?

0:19:39.240 --> 0:19:42.520
<v Speaker 1>I woke up at like eleven thirty, slept in and

0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:44.719
<v Speaker 1>um yeah. The first thing I had to do when

0:19:44.720 --> 0:19:46.040
<v Speaker 1>I woke up was like, dude, I'm so sorry. I

0:19:46.040 --> 0:19:48.760
<v Speaker 1>forgot to tell you no programming today. We'll get you back.

0:19:52.240 --> 0:19:54.680
<v Speaker 1>I love, like the Modica. I was fascinated by the

0:19:54.920 --> 0:19:58.760
<v Speaker 1>consta fascinated by it. What I've learned last week and

0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:01.359
<v Speaker 1>what I I want to try and do more of.

0:20:01.520 --> 0:20:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Greg is we can't base our analysis solely on statistical evidence,

0:20:07.560 --> 0:20:09.520
<v Speaker 1>you Know's what I'm saying, Like we have to work

0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:11.439
<v Speaker 1>in like some of like the mental side of things too.

0:20:11.600 --> 0:20:14.040
<v Speaker 1>Any Singleton spoke a lot about that on Thursday and Friday,

0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:18.440
<v Speaker 1>the mental side of you know, analysis for especially some

0:20:18.520 --> 0:20:22.000
<v Speaker 1>of these younger players, like guys who um maybe fail

0:20:22.000 --> 0:20:24.640
<v Speaker 1>a little bit or didn't live up to expectations. UM

0:20:24.920 --> 0:20:27.080
<v Speaker 1>just kind of like working that into our analysis a

0:20:27.080 --> 0:20:29.040
<v Speaker 1>little bit more. Because I know Ian Cohn, you know,

0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:32.160
<v Speaker 1>when you when you heard him talking about his analysis

0:20:32.800 --> 0:20:35.879
<v Speaker 1>of Michael Kopec last year, it was like he had

0:20:35.920 --> 0:20:38.920
<v Speaker 1>a crazy girlfriend, crazy fiance. I traded him away to dining.

0:20:40.160 --> 0:20:43.720
<v Speaker 1>So you know, these they're humans too. Baseball players are

0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:45.040
<v Speaker 1>humans too, So I do want to try and like

0:20:45.119 --> 0:20:47.840
<v Speaker 1>work some of some of the off the field stuff

0:20:47.880 --> 0:20:52.600
<v Speaker 1>into our analysis as well. Definitely, you know what you know,

0:20:52.640 --> 0:20:54.200
<v Speaker 1>what are we talking about? Of it's coordinators lot in

0:20:54.200 --> 0:20:56.399
<v Speaker 1>football said every year we want to the mental stuff.

0:20:56.480 --> 0:20:58.359
<v Speaker 1>Like I remember last year going into year, we had

0:20:58.359 --> 0:21:01.359
<v Speaker 1>a huge Gane Cigura conversation. Well we underwent was it

0:21:01.440 --> 0:21:02.960
<v Speaker 1>rotus that was telling us about I think it was

0:21:03.040 --> 0:21:05.399
<v Speaker 1>Rotus that was telling us about all of his family

0:21:05.480 --> 0:21:08.560
<v Speaker 1>problems and how that contributed to his bad down here

0:21:08.640 --> 0:21:11.040
<v Speaker 1>that like, he really is really awesome. Travis Shaw was

0:21:11.119 --> 0:21:13.600
<v Speaker 1>someone that we spoke about last year who the year

0:21:13.680 --> 0:21:17.359
<v Speaker 1>before he had struggled so much at home in Milwaukee

0:21:17.520 --> 0:21:21.640
<v Speaker 1>because his his newborn daughter was like dealing with serious health.

0:21:22.560 --> 0:21:26.800
<v Speaker 1>But whenever he was home in milwaukee's my watch. Oh

0:21:26.880 --> 0:21:29.280
<v Speaker 1>you broke your watch? We found something on the floor here.

0:21:29.400 --> 0:21:31.800
<v Speaker 1>It looked like a monitor. Just assumed it was Greg's,

0:21:32.280 --> 0:21:34.879
<v Speaker 1>but it was It was the front of his watch. Right,

0:21:34.960 --> 0:21:36.960
<v Speaker 1>You're off to a riveting start here on a Tuesday,

0:21:37.320 --> 0:21:44.520
<v Speaker 1>and I just put gum on it. Oh man, you're right, man,

0:21:45.880 --> 0:21:48.520
<v Speaker 1>you got gum on your watch. Go to Fresh Shop

0:21:48.600 --> 0:21:51.560
<v Speaker 1>for a second, bring bring it over here. So we're

0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:53.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna try to work more of that into our analysis.

0:21:54.080 --> 0:21:56.800
<v Speaker 1>I mentioned Mike Wastalkins a little bit before the break

0:21:57.160 --> 0:21:59.960
<v Speaker 1>signs a one year deal over with the Milwaukee Brewers

0:22:00.040 --> 0:22:03.119
<v Speaker 1>ten million dollar deal. This is super interesting because he

0:22:03.160 --> 0:22:05.200
<v Speaker 1>actually turned down a I think it was like sixteen

0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:08.240
<v Speaker 1>or seventeen million dollar qualifying offered two years ago, and

0:22:08.440 --> 0:22:11.639
<v Speaker 1>in the two seasons combined, think me like six or

0:22:11.680 --> 0:22:13.359
<v Speaker 1>six and a half million. Last year on one year

0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:16.359
<v Speaker 1>deal and then uh, this year he's making ten million dollars,

0:22:16.440 --> 0:22:19.480
<v Speaker 1>so combined, he's like just about what he would have

0:22:19.560 --> 0:22:22.600
<v Speaker 1>gone to you would have gotten two years ago if

0:22:22.640 --> 0:22:26.960
<v Speaker 1>he had accepted the qualifying offer. Obviously both michaelm Stockins

0:22:27.000 --> 0:22:30.920
<v Speaker 1>and his agent were underwhelmed or you know, didn't I

0:22:31.040 --> 0:22:34.640
<v Speaker 1>didn't read the market correctly. All right, I'm getting something

0:22:34.680 --> 0:22:37.440
<v Speaker 1>in my ear that we have breaking many Machado news here,

0:22:37.560 --> 0:22:39.760
<v Speaker 1>so I'm gonna try and pull that up On Twitter,

0:22:42.520 --> 0:22:45.080
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Mason says that Manny Machado has agreed to a

0:22:45.160 --> 0:22:50.960
<v Speaker 1>deal with the San Diego Padres. Diego, he wanted to

0:22:51.000 --> 0:22:53.199
<v Speaker 1>play on the East Coast. He will not be playing.

0:22:53.920 --> 0:22:57.520
<v Speaker 1>He wants stop. He wanted to be on the East Coast.

0:22:57.600 --> 0:23:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Want to play short stop, Manny Machado, Here we go,

0:23:01.560 --> 0:23:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Jefson star. Mani Chado has agreed to a deal. We're

0:23:04.800 --> 0:23:06.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna get into Michael stocks as well. I also want

0:23:06.600 --> 0:23:08.760
<v Speaker 1>to get into catchers. Are we gonna get Are we

0:23:08.760 --> 0:23:13.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna do anything today? Gregg? It's all right, we still

0:23:13.040 --> 0:23:16.280
<v Speaker 1>have a lot to talk about. Um. Manni Michado has

0:23:16.280 --> 0:23:18.840
<v Speaker 1>agreed to a deal with the San Diego Padres now,

0:23:18.960 --> 0:23:22.200
<v Speaker 1>I will tell you this. I was watching MLB Network

0:23:22.320 --> 0:23:25.399
<v Speaker 1>yesterday and they were talking about why it would be

0:23:25.400 --> 0:23:27.720
<v Speaker 1>a little bit risky for from a baseball perspective, for

0:23:27.720 --> 0:23:30.399
<v Speaker 1>Manni Michado to go to the San Diego Padres, because

0:23:31.800 --> 0:23:35.040
<v Speaker 1>their reasoning was, you don't make big signings like this

0:23:35.280 --> 0:23:37.720
<v Speaker 1>until all your pieces are in place, and this is

0:23:37.840 --> 0:23:40.840
<v Speaker 1>kind of like the last piece to the puzzle. They

0:23:40.920 --> 0:23:45.320
<v Speaker 1>have young prospects coming in Luis Arias and Fernando Tatis Jr.

0:23:45.640 --> 0:23:49.240
<v Speaker 1>And have all these young outfielders, but again they're just

0:23:49.320 --> 0:23:51.720
<v Speaker 1>going based on potential. A lot of these guys who

0:23:51.760 --> 0:23:54.479
<v Speaker 1>get called up, they flop. So no doubt as much

0:23:54.520 --> 0:23:56.240
<v Speaker 1>as we think Fernando Tatis is going to be a

0:23:56.320 --> 0:23:59.040
<v Speaker 1>can't miss prospect, no one really knows. I mean, he's

0:23:59.119 --> 0:24:00.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, maybe we see him up in the second

0:24:00.800 --> 0:24:03.119
<v Speaker 1>half of the season this year. I think Luis Ariasa

0:24:03.240 --> 0:24:04.880
<v Speaker 1>will be up for most of the season this year.

0:24:05.080 --> 0:24:06.960
<v Speaker 1>I know this signed. Ian Kins are to play second base,

0:24:07.000 --> 0:24:10.080
<v Speaker 1>but Rias can play short. They can move things around. Um.

0:24:10.240 --> 0:24:12.920
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, they were basically saying, you know, this is

0:24:13.000 --> 0:24:14.919
<v Speaker 1>a move that you make if you're the San Diego Potties.

0:24:14.960 --> 0:24:16.600
<v Speaker 1>In a few years when you feel like you're just

0:24:16.800 --> 0:24:19.680
<v Speaker 1>that one marquee free agent signing away, I will say,

0:24:20.040 --> 0:24:22.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, Mani Machado is only twenty six years old,

0:24:22.640 --> 0:24:24.080
<v Speaker 1>so he's gonna be in the prime of his career

0:24:24.119 --> 0:24:27.080
<v Speaker 1>for the next five seasons. Um. So you know those

0:24:27.119 --> 0:24:30.480
<v Speaker 1>players do come on up and they perform well, the

0:24:30.520 --> 0:24:32.080
<v Speaker 1>Patres are going to be in position, you know, a

0:24:32.160 --> 0:24:34.480
<v Speaker 1>couple of years from now where they are gonna, you know,

0:24:34.560 --> 0:24:36.520
<v Speaker 1>be able to make some noise in the National League

0:24:36.520 --> 0:24:39.359
<v Speaker 1>and specifically in the in the NL West. Because now

0:24:39.440 --> 0:24:42.719
<v Speaker 1>you have Machado and you have Rick Cosmer. Eric Cosmer, Um,

0:24:43.119 --> 0:24:47.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, not the offensive juggernaut that we thought he

0:24:47.640 --> 0:24:49.120
<v Speaker 1>was gonna be when he came over to the San

0:24:49.160 --> 0:24:52.679
<v Speaker 1>Diego Potteries. At least he wasn't last year. But they

0:24:52.760 --> 0:24:54.720
<v Speaker 1>have some pieces in place now. They still need to

0:24:54.760 --> 0:24:57.080
<v Speaker 1>get pitching. The pitching is not good. But you have

0:24:57.400 --> 0:25:00.639
<v Speaker 1>Rick Cosmer, you have Manni Michado, you have Eric Cosmer

0:25:00.640 --> 0:25:03.359
<v Speaker 1>has already won a World Series with the Kansas City Royals.

0:25:03.600 --> 0:25:05.840
<v Speaker 1>He knows what it takes to kind of turn a

0:25:05.920 --> 0:25:07.680
<v Speaker 1>young team around. He was there when it happened with

0:25:07.720 --> 0:25:10.840
<v Speaker 1>the Kansas City Royals. They have a ton of young outfielers.

0:25:10.920 --> 0:25:13.280
<v Speaker 1>They have depth there. They have Will Myers, who was

0:25:13.320 --> 0:25:17.239
<v Speaker 1>another great offensive piece. He needs to stay healthy. They

0:25:17.280 --> 0:25:19.680
<v Speaker 1>have Hunter Renfro and they have frand Murrayus. They have

0:25:19.800 --> 0:25:21.960
<v Speaker 1>two guys that they think can be legitimate you know,

0:25:22.119 --> 0:25:25.679
<v Speaker 1>power hitters, sluggers, uh in the corner outfitlers there. They

0:25:25.720 --> 0:25:29.159
<v Speaker 1>have Manuel Marco. They have Francie Cordero Luis marias a

0:25:29.240 --> 0:25:31.480
<v Speaker 1>young middle infield. They have Ian Kinsler to kind of

0:25:31.560 --> 0:25:34.240
<v Speaker 1>hold down the fort until, you know, whenever Fernando Tatis

0:25:34.400 --> 0:25:37.040
<v Speaker 1>is ready. They also traded for Francisco Mahea last year.

0:25:37.280 --> 0:25:39.000
<v Speaker 1>This is a team that has a great farm system

0:25:39.119 --> 0:25:41.560
<v Speaker 1>and already has really great young pieces. And now you're

0:25:41.600 --> 0:25:44.440
<v Speaker 1>adding Manny Mattado to this lineup where I assume I

0:25:44.520 --> 0:25:46.639
<v Speaker 1>know all reports on he wanted to play shortstop. I

0:25:46.680 --> 0:25:48.440
<v Speaker 1>think he's gonna play third base because they had a

0:25:48.560 --> 0:25:52.240
<v Speaker 1>huge glaring need and a hole there. I'll be interested

0:25:52.280 --> 0:25:55.040
<v Speaker 1>to see what the numbers look like here if they

0:25:55.080 --> 0:25:56.639
<v Speaker 1>had to overpay to get a guy like Manny and

0:25:56.720 --> 0:26:00.359
<v Speaker 1>Childo to go to the West coast, because all in cations,

0:26:00.400 --> 0:26:01.879
<v Speaker 1>like you mentioned Greg that he wanted to play on

0:26:01.920 --> 0:26:06.280
<v Speaker 1>the East coast here, but not a not a great ballpark.

0:26:06.359 --> 0:26:09.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure it really matters. I think Many Machado's

0:26:09.040 --> 0:26:10.840
<v Speaker 1>power kind of plays anywhere. We saw that last year

0:26:10.880 --> 0:26:12.760
<v Speaker 1>when he was with the Dodgers. But I think this

0:26:12.840 --> 0:26:15.119
<v Speaker 1>lineup is gonna be pretty good. Maybe not right away,

0:26:15.240 --> 0:26:17.800
<v Speaker 1>but um second half of the season or for years

0:26:17.840 --> 0:26:21.760
<v Speaker 1>to come. Many Machado where he's going in the fifteen

0:26:21.800 --> 0:26:25.000
<v Speaker 1>team league, late first, early second round. I'm not sure

0:26:25.040 --> 0:26:27.720
<v Speaker 1>he really moves all that much, but from a shortstop,

0:26:27.840 --> 0:26:30.080
<v Speaker 1>and and he's gonna have third base eligibility now for

0:26:30.160 --> 0:26:33.040
<v Speaker 1>fantasy as well, that dual eligibility to use the middle infield,

0:26:33.040 --> 0:26:36.159
<v Speaker 1>corner infield. It's not bad. I kind of like it.

0:26:36.520 --> 0:26:38.680
<v Speaker 1>It's it's not a great hitting park like you would

0:26:38.680 --> 0:26:40.959
<v Speaker 1>have put him in Citizens Bank. It's gotten better over

0:26:41.000 --> 0:26:42.880
<v Speaker 1>the past couple of years, though they moved the walls

0:26:42.920 --> 0:26:45.639
<v Speaker 1>in a couple of years ago. Definitely, definitely it's not

0:26:45.800 --> 0:26:51.320
<v Speaker 1>Citizens Bank well, and it's also not like America obviously either.

0:26:51.359 --> 0:26:55.679
<v Speaker 1>At this point, I think that Manny Machado in San Diego,

0:26:55.800 --> 0:27:00.159
<v Speaker 1>you were, is it weird that with him there us

0:27:00.200 --> 0:27:06.840
<v Speaker 1>worry about what does he have to play for motivations

0:27:06.880 --> 0:27:09.040
<v Speaker 1>where I was like, yeah, motivation when it comes to

0:27:09.080 --> 0:27:11.080
<v Speaker 1>Manny Machado, like he got a big contract, what was

0:27:11.119 --> 0:27:14.640
<v Speaker 1>his motivation in Baltimore? Though, you know, get paid, You're

0:27:14.640 --> 0:27:18.200
<v Speaker 1>still you're doing to get paid, and I worry about

0:27:18.200 --> 0:27:19.560
<v Speaker 1>that san Diego Like, yeah, you can get all the

0:27:19.560 --> 0:27:21.760
<v Speaker 1>promises in the world, Like, but San Diego still a

0:27:21.880 --> 0:27:24.480
<v Speaker 1>last place team. The much out of signing with I

0:27:24.560 --> 0:27:28.240
<v Speaker 1>know that the future is very, very bright, but it

0:27:28.400 --> 0:27:32.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of reeks to me of of a Rod twenty

0:27:32.119 --> 0:27:34.800
<v Speaker 1>years ago. We're signed the last place team. You give

0:27:35.000 --> 0:27:39.320
<v Speaker 1>gobs of money to this dude. What pitching? They have?

0:27:39.800 --> 0:27:43.159
<v Speaker 1>No pitching? We lu case the opening day starter. I

0:27:43.240 --> 0:27:44.879
<v Speaker 1>have a few guys in the farm system that are

0:27:44.920 --> 0:27:48.800
<v Speaker 1>coming up, but probably won't see him this year, those

0:27:48.920 --> 0:27:53.040
<v Speaker 1>those top prospects that they have. So yeah, I'm according

0:27:53.040 --> 0:27:56.920
<v Speaker 1>to the league source, ten years, three hundred million dollars.

0:27:58.160 --> 0:28:01.400
<v Speaker 1>He got the number he wanted. That's from Mark fine

0:28:01.440 --> 0:28:05.800
<v Speaker 1>sand right. Is that what you're saying of three hundred

0:28:06.040 --> 0:28:09.600
<v Speaker 1>million dollars? And this is also what they said yesterday

0:28:09.640 --> 0:28:11.359
<v Speaker 1>on MLB Network when referring to him going to the

0:28:11.400 --> 0:28:15.880
<v Speaker 1>Padres is it's risky because say, over the next couple

0:28:15.920 --> 0:28:18.520
<v Speaker 1>of years, things are not going well for the Miami.

0:28:19.000 --> 0:28:21.320
<v Speaker 1>For the San Diego Potters, they likened it to the

0:28:21.400 --> 0:28:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Miami Marlins, who they signed John Carlos Stanton, and they

0:28:24.880 --> 0:28:27.040
<v Speaker 1>thought they were gonna have that young nucleus outfield that

0:28:27.160 --> 0:28:29.040
<v Speaker 1>was gonna grow together. And then the next thing thing,

0:28:29.119 --> 0:28:31.119
<v Speaker 1>you know, you figure out you have to blow up

0:28:31.160 --> 0:28:34.200
<v Speaker 1>this scene, and you know you have to trade away

0:28:34.240 --> 0:28:36.000
<v Speaker 1>a player with that many years in that much contract,

0:28:36.000 --> 0:28:39.240
<v Speaker 1>and you're not gonna get anything in return. So remember,

0:28:39.320 --> 0:28:42.720
<v Speaker 1>look they traded away Um, the Marlins trade away Joan

0:28:42.720 --> 0:28:45.240
<v Speaker 1>Carlo stand for nothing, you know, the Castro, a few

0:28:45.280 --> 0:28:48.280
<v Speaker 1>lower level prospects. It's Philip Smith. It's kind of amazing

0:28:48.480 --> 0:28:51.880
<v Speaker 1>how things quickly changed. Like San Diego, it was a

0:28:51.880 --> 0:28:54.280
<v Speaker 1>couple of years ago. They trade everybody. I mean they

0:28:54.320 --> 0:28:56.920
<v Speaker 1>tried to trade everybody. They had a way, they tried

0:28:56.960 --> 0:28:58.680
<v Speaker 1>to They tried to go for it for one one

0:28:59.720 --> 0:29:02.960
<v Speaker 1>store thing. They took everybody, everybody from the Braves, the

0:29:03.040 --> 0:29:06.160
<v Speaker 1>Upton Brothers, Craig Kimbroll had that Kemp right like. They

0:29:06.200 --> 0:29:09.480
<v Speaker 1>took everybody and they trained everybody away, and that included

0:29:09.920 --> 0:29:12.280
<v Speaker 1>brad Hand. Last year, the brad Hand wasn't costing all

0:29:12.320 --> 0:29:14.600
<v Speaker 1>that much and traded him away last year because weren't

0:29:14.640 --> 0:29:17.320
<v Speaker 1>doing anything. And now they go out and they got

0:29:17.560 --> 0:29:20.440
<v Speaker 1>a move from Manny Machado, which surprised. You know, you

0:29:20.560 --> 0:29:24.280
<v Speaker 1>really worry about the motivation here for him and say

0:29:25.240 --> 0:29:28.120
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. I mean, I couldn't see it because

0:29:28.440 --> 0:29:31.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, people had their concerns about not hustling down

0:29:31.920 --> 0:29:34.120
<v Speaker 1>the stretch last year, all the antics he had during

0:29:34.160 --> 0:29:37.200
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs, so you can question it. You know, maybe

0:29:37.360 --> 0:29:39.320
<v Speaker 1>maybe his motivation will be he wants to put those

0:29:39.360 --> 0:29:42.760
<v Speaker 1>things to rest. Maybe that's his motivation. He went to

0:29:42.840 --> 0:29:46.040
<v Speaker 1>the Dodgers last year, he had to sevente runs. It's

0:29:46.040 --> 0:29:53.720
<v Speaker 1>in sixty six games, so hard hit right by the

0:29:53.920 --> 0:29:57.080
<v Speaker 1>by the way back in um November. The odds, there

0:29:57.120 --> 0:29:59.680
<v Speaker 1>are odds, of course set for where Machado would end up.

0:30:00.000 --> 0:30:02.680
<v Speaker 1>San Diego isn't even on the list. Wasn't he could

0:30:02.720 --> 0:30:04.880
<v Speaker 1>have gotten You bet the field, You could have bet

0:30:04.960 --> 0:30:06.959
<v Speaker 1>the field and done very very well. Would you rather

0:30:07.000 --> 0:30:10.480
<v Speaker 1>have hotel to many Machado in fantasy? They're going back

0:30:10.480 --> 0:30:15.240
<v Speaker 1>to back right now. We have we have the L

0:30:15.280 --> 0:30:19.480
<v Speaker 1>two discussion before I left, and dr was very non complimentary,

0:30:21.600 --> 0:30:25.200
<v Speaker 1>really not all that close for me, Machado power, I

0:30:25.280 --> 0:30:27.920
<v Speaker 1>understand power. I mean, look, question, you don't know what

0:30:28.000 --> 0:30:29.800
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna get. You don't know what you're gonna get

0:30:29.800 --> 0:30:31.560
<v Speaker 1>out of him speed wise, because the past three years

0:30:31.600 --> 0:30:35.000
<v Speaker 1>he's been fourteen, nine and zero and was twenty so

0:30:35.040 --> 0:30:37.280
<v Speaker 1>he's kind of all over the map. But you know,

0:30:37.360 --> 0:30:38.920
<v Speaker 1>when I was doing I was kind of looking into

0:30:38.960 --> 0:30:42.280
<v Speaker 1>my third base preview and also looking at many Machado,

0:30:42.360 --> 0:30:45.800
<v Speaker 1>just lumping him into that mix. Manie Machado is about

0:30:45.840 --> 0:30:48.320
<v Speaker 1>as close to no Eronado as you could possibly get.

0:30:48.560 --> 0:30:50.880
<v Speaker 1>He now has dual eligibility, and he's also going to

0:30:50.960 --> 0:30:53.000
<v Speaker 1>give you at least ten to twelve sole basis. Yeah,

0:30:53.880 --> 0:30:56.720
<v Speaker 1>and he's close to nol Eronado. Like Eronado. You set

0:30:56.760 --> 0:30:59.840
<v Speaker 1>your watch too, eight five thirty five home runs on

0:31:00.040 --> 0:31:04.000
<v Speaker 1>during a hundred. All right, maybe maybe he set the

0:31:04.120 --> 0:31:07.760
<v Speaker 1>runs in RBS at Machado, but he's gonna hit, you know,

0:31:07.800 --> 0:31:09.640
<v Speaker 1>close to thirty five home runs. He's gonna kill ten

0:31:09.680 --> 0:31:14.200
<v Speaker 1>to twelve bases. He basically gives you of what of

0:31:14.240 --> 0:31:16.520
<v Speaker 1>what Arnado gives you, and also gives you ten to

0:31:16.520 --> 0:31:18.960
<v Speaker 1>twelve sole basis on top of that. And you get

0:31:19.080 --> 0:31:23.640
<v Speaker 1>him by two seven picks later do you doesn't make

0:31:23.640 --> 0:31:25.200
<v Speaker 1>a lot of sense to me. Just do anything for

0:31:25.240 --> 0:31:29.120
<v Speaker 1>anybody else in San Diego, like it helps their lineup

0:31:29.360 --> 0:31:31.640
<v Speaker 1>every time I just say san Diego like no, I

0:31:31.680 --> 0:31:35.680
<v Speaker 1>mean Los Angeles, um, but San Diego, like for Eric

0:31:35.720 --> 0:31:37.600
<v Speaker 1>hosmer Is you gotta bumped down. And this is there.

0:31:37.680 --> 0:31:40.960
<v Speaker 1>This is the opportunity for for the Padres to kind

0:31:40.960 --> 0:31:43.040
<v Speaker 1>of win over the city of San Diego, right because

0:31:43.080 --> 0:31:47.600
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing else there. The charges they can basically, you know,

0:31:47.880 --> 0:31:49.920
<v Speaker 1>they can make some noise here. Look, it's not an

0:31:49.920 --> 0:31:52.520
<v Speaker 1>easy division. I do think that Diamondbacks take a step back.

0:31:52.560 --> 0:31:54.760
<v Speaker 1>They traded away some of their guys, trade away Paul

0:31:54.800 --> 0:31:58.040
<v Speaker 1>gold Schmidt. They didn't they didn't bring back a J. Pollock.

0:31:58.160 --> 0:32:00.680
<v Speaker 1>They're they're kind of weird. They're like heating while we're

0:32:00.920 --> 0:32:03.760
<v Speaker 1>rebuilding kind of things. But the Rockies are still very good.

0:32:03.800 --> 0:32:06.360
<v Speaker 1>The Dodgers are still very good. Um, the Potteries are

0:32:06.360 --> 0:32:09.360
<v Speaker 1>going to get better. Here. Let's let's see how quick

0:32:10.720 --> 0:32:16.200
<v Speaker 1>quick roster resources and the giant stage roster resource as

0:32:16.240 --> 0:32:19.760
<v Speaker 1>Mannie Machado in the lineup batting nine. So they clearly

0:32:19.800 --> 0:32:21.920
<v Speaker 1>haven't they haven't had everything yet, but they do have

0:32:22.080 --> 0:32:26.880
<v Speaker 1>him playing third base for the team here. Look as

0:32:26.920 --> 0:32:30.560
<v Speaker 1>of right now, they have Ian Kinsler, Luise Arias, Eric Cosmer,

0:32:30.720 --> 0:32:37.080
<v Speaker 1>Will Myers, Hunter, Renfro, Francie Cordero. That's a power. I

0:32:37.160 --> 0:32:40.880
<v Speaker 1>still kind of wish that they made some plays training

0:32:40.920 --> 0:32:42.960
<v Speaker 1>with some outfielers here to get pitching, whether it was

0:32:43.080 --> 0:32:46.120
<v Speaker 1>Corey Kluber or Trevor Bauer. I know it's gonna be

0:32:46.120 --> 0:32:49.000
<v Speaker 1>a big price tag, but you get kind of an

0:32:49.040 --> 0:32:51.520
<v Speaker 1>ace to anchor your staff. It's something that they need you.

0:32:51.880 --> 0:32:57.840
<v Speaker 1>They have legitimately five outfields Greig. They have Will Myers, Hunter, Renfrow,

0:32:58.120 --> 0:33:02.600
<v Speaker 1>Francie Cordero, Manuel Argo, if six Travis Sankowski, I mean,

0:33:02.640 --> 0:33:04.520
<v Speaker 1>he's probably more of a fourth outfielder anyway. And they

0:33:04.560 --> 0:33:06.840
<v Speaker 1>have fran Malays, who has of right now is not

0:33:06.920 --> 0:33:08.840
<v Speaker 1>even on the roster. The haven't projected to start in

0:33:08.840 --> 0:33:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Triple A. I don't know if that's going to be

0:33:10.440 --> 0:33:13.640
<v Speaker 1>the case. But letters have a glot of outfielders here.

0:33:13.920 --> 0:33:15.680
<v Speaker 1>I say, you know you're packing some of those guys,

0:33:15.760 --> 0:33:17.560
<v Speaker 1>maybe a prospect you try and get back like a

0:33:17.640 --> 0:33:22.640
<v Speaker 1>Trevor Bauer or Glory Cooper. Because the Indians desperately, desperately

0:33:22.680 --> 0:33:25.120
<v Speaker 1>need outfield. Have you looked at the Indians outfield the

0:33:25.160 --> 0:33:30.200
<v Speaker 1>season started today, Martin. It's Greg Allends, so they need

0:33:30.280 --> 0:33:32.000
<v Speaker 1>help there. They need helping the outfield. I still think

0:33:32.040 --> 0:33:34.040
<v Speaker 1>that that could be a match there. This this helps

0:33:34.080 --> 0:33:36.080
<v Speaker 1>the line up a lot. Someone that they were trying

0:33:36.120 --> 0:33:37.920
<v Speaker 1>to sign who they didn't. Is there anything else who

0:33:37.920 --> 0:33:41.120
<v Speaker 1>want to do on Machado right now? Greg Machado or

0:33:41.160 --> 0:33:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Judge. Rather Tharon Judge. It's close Judge. I think

0:33:47.520 --> 0:33:50.040
<v Speaker 1>I'd rather have Aaron Judge as well, especially in Rhodo

0:33:50.040 --> 0:33:52.800
<v Speaker 1>because he needs a five outfielders. I'll take Aaron Judge.

0:33:52.840 --> 0:33:56.160
<v Speaker 1>But I'm saying, look, having that dual eligibility for Machado help,

0:33:56.240 --> 0:34:00.520
<v Speaker 1>it's huge third base and shortstop huge. I I'd rather

0:34:00.560 --> 0:34:05.320
<v Speaker 1>have Machado than Javier Bayaz definitely. Javier Baya's NFBC ADP

0:34:05.480 --> 0:34:08.600
<v Speaker 1>right now is fourteen point four. It is fifteen point nine.

0:34:09.280 --> 0:34:11.279
<v Speaker 1>He's going a few picks later. I think we were

0:34:11.360 --> 0:34:13.000
<v Speaker 1>waiting for these guys to sign and then you're gonna

0:34:13.000 --> 0:34:15.680
<v Speaker 1>see their ADP jack up a little bit. Obviously, if

0:34:15.719 --> 0:34:18.440
<v Speaker 1>you want to went to a park like in Chicago

0:34:18.520 --> 0:34:19.799
<v Speaker 1>with the White Sox, I think that would have helped

0:34:19.880 --> 0:34:22.200
<v Speaker 1>him even a little bit more. I only people like

0:34:22.360 --> 0:34:25.200
<v Speaker 1>the park for the pod with the Padres as much,

0:34:25.360 --> 0:34:28.800
<v Speaker 1>and rightfully so. Manny Machado or Alex Bregman both have

0:34:28.920 --> 0:34:31.439
<v Speaker 1>third base and short stuff eligibility. I think this one's

0:34:31.520 --> 0:34:34.440
<v Speaker 1>very close as possible. That because I think Alex Bregman's

0:34:34.520 --> 0:34:39.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of becoming Manni Michado inns of the fantasy is

0:34:39.400 --> 0:34:42.040
<v Speaker 1>the batting average could be even better. Though Alex Bregman

0:34:42.080 --> 0:34:44.239
<v Speaker 1>could be a three hundred plus hitter with thirty and

0:34:44.320 --> 0:34:46.680
<v Speaker 1>thirty five home runs. The thing it's Mani Michado we've

0:34:46.680 --> 0:34:49.480
<v Speaker 1>seen doing a little bit more. You know, he has

0:34:49.560 --> 0:34:52.719
<v Speaker 1>more of a tracker. Probably take Alex Bregman's close, Probably

0:34:52.719 --> 0:34:57.440
<v Speaker 1>take Machado very close. Astro's lineup is better. Do you

0:34:57.480 --> 0:35:00.680
<v Speaker 1>think it's possible in their hitting environment in Houston? It's close.

0:35:00.920 --> 0:35:04.279
<v Speaker 1>I think I leaned Bregman, but that's where that's where

0:35:04.480 --> 0:35:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Machado I think he's going to move to and should be.

0:35:06.520 --> 0:35:09.520
<v Speaker 1>He should be in that end to thirteen range, that's

0:35:09.560 --> 0:35:13.080
<v Speaker 1>where you should go. Do you think there's a chance

0:35:13.120 --> 0:35:14.719
<v Speaker 1>Padres go out and spend more money inside like a

0:35:14.800 --> 0:35:19.440
<v Speaker 1>Dallas Kiko? I mean, at this point go all side

0:35:19.480 --> 0:35:23.760
<v Speaker 1>are right, Corey and Tim Brown of Yahoo. There's an

0:35:23.800 --> 0:35:27.640
<v Speaker 1>opt out. There's an opt out from a shadow after

0:35:27.719 --> 0:35:30.480
<v Speaker 1>the fifth year of the deal halfway through, okay, so

0:35:30.520 --> 0:35:34.560
<v Speaker 1>would be thirty one. So if he's forming very well

0:35:34.719 --> 0:35:36.680
<v Speaker 1>up to that point, maybe he could cash in another,

0:35:36.880 --> 0:35:38.479
<v Speaker 1>you know, seven or eight year deal at that point,

0:35:39.520 --> 0:35:42.239
<v Speaker 1>give himself a little bit more financial security. But he's

0:35:42.280 --> 0:35:46.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna be with the Potteries at least five years, according

0:35:46.880 --> 0:35:48.799
<v Speaker 1>to Jack Harry. By the way, well, the Yankees met

0:35:48.840 --> 0:35:51.680
<v Speaker 1>with Machado in December, they hardly engage with him after that.

0:35:51.760 --> 0:35:54.279
<v Speaker 1>For them, their first internal conversations Yankees had with the

0:35:54.280 --> 0:35:56.400
<v Speaker 1>possibility of any Machado there are strong voices in the

0:35:56.480 --> 0:35:59.239
<v Speaker 1>room advocating against it. This is the Yankees team, this

0:35:59.360 --> 0:36:01.279
<v Speaker 1>is their lineup. It's not changing. They're not getting it

0:36:01.320 --> 0:36:04.160
<v Speaker 1>on Bright's Harper, that's not happening. He's either going to

0:36:04.200 --> 0:36:08.080
<v Speaker 1>the Phillies unless the White Sox throw like a part

0:36:08.120 --> 0:36:10.120
<v Speaker 1>of money, he's on the way. It's like it's I

0:36:10.160 --> 0:36:15.640
<v Speaker 1>would say it's chance Philly Washington. Why he offered him

0:36:15.640 --> 0:36:19.000
<v Speaker 1>apparently ten for three million after the season ended, and

0:36:19.280 --> 0:36:20.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people speculate he's gonna get more than

0:36:21.040 --> 0:36:24.120
<v Speaker 1>that with the Phillies, so maybe it goes up to

0:36:25.239 --> 0:36:27.680
<v Speaker 1>three twenty five. Everyone was saying that it's almost a

0:36:27.719 --> 0:36:29.879
<v Speaker 1>done deal with Philly, and I saw that she was close.

0:36:30.120 --> 0:36:33.520
<v Speaker 1>John Hayman was reporting that on Sunday Sunday, all right,

0:36:33.560 --> 0:36:35.480
<v Speaker 1>there you got a name a shadow. Now a number

0:36:35.560 --> 0:36:37.640

<v Speaker 1>have a vague idea, like they have a stick. They

0:38:50.840 --> 0:38:53.640

<v Speaker 1>show me the money, opt out after five. So there

0:39:37.600 --> 0:39:40.759
<v Speaker 1>you go. How about that man Mac Sciado now member

0:39:40.880 --> 0:39:43.480
<v Speaker 1>of San Diego Padres. Value doesn't change all that much.

0:39:44.120 --> 0:39:46.080
<v Speaker 1>But you know he'll be in camp he signed. Do

0:39:46.160 --> 0:39:48.600
<v Speaker 1>you think the fact that it's him and Bryce Harper

0:39:48.640 --> 0:39:51.439
<v Speaker 1>are signing now they're gonna move up draft boards. Bryce

0:39:51.520 --> 0:39:54.480
<v Speaker 1>Harper was going into the late second round, and that's

0:39:54.520 --> 0:39:56.680
<v Speaker 1>only because he doesn't have a home, especially if he

0:39:56.719 --> 0:39:59.279
<v Speaker 1>goes to Philadelphia, he should be a first round pick.

0:40:00.080 --> 0:40:02.799
<v Speaker 1>Jake Seeley in the Labor Draft last week started his draft.

0:40:02.840 --> 0:40:04.760
<v Speaker 1>He at the fourth pick. He started yell at Harper,

0:40:05.680 --> 0:40:09.479
<v Speaker 1>that should not happen. Jus, that should not happen. We're

0:40:09.520 --> 0:40:12.000
<v Speaker 1>talking about the uh it's out wars draft. In whole

0:40:12.080 --> 0:40:15.200
<v Speaker 1>draft as well. In the second hour with Lad Settler

0:40:16.040 --> 0:40:24.640
<v Speaker 1>and Bryce, Harper went at pick eighteen and May Machado actually, smart,

0:40:25.080 --> 0:40:31.160
<v Speaker 1>you went at pick ten, pick ten. That's fair. There

0:40:31.200 --> 0:40:35.040
<v Speaker 1>you go, I think that's fair. Um. Yeah, the values

0:40:35.040 --> 0:40:36.520
<v Speaker 1>will absolutely go up. And I think the good news

0:40:36.600 --> 0:40:39.480
<v Speaker 1>is they've signed early enough. Here oddly enough saying that

0:40:39.560 --> 0:40:42.120
<v Speaker 1>in February nineteen, they signed early enough. They did right.

0:40:42.239 --> 0:40:44.719
<v Speaker 1>This isn't like one of those Cans Morales things or

0:40:44.719 --> 0:40:47.040
<v Speaker 1>Stephen Drew things that you're signing so late they don't

0:40:47.040 --> 0:40:48.799
<v Speaker 1>have enough time to work out. Like I think they'll

0:40:48.840 --> 0:40:50.800
<v Speaker 1>be in camp for a month with their team, so

0:40:51.000 --> 0:40:53.440
<v Speaker 1>that should be plenty of time. I went to get

0:40:53.440 --> 0:40:56.480
<v Speaker 1>ready and I'm moving. They worked that also. I know

0:40:56.760 --> 0:41:00.239
<v Speaker 1>Eric Cosmers signed like around this time last year. I

0:41:00.320 --> 0:41:03.919
<v Speaker 1>saw it was like three of the biggest contracts last

0:41:04.040 --> 0:41:07.520
<v Speaker 1>MLB off season weren't signed until after February, which is

0:41:07.680 --> 0:41:09.520
<v Speaker 1>kind of where we're at right now. Yeah, pretty much,

0:41:09.560 --> 0:41:13.719
<v Speaker 1>but February. Mike mustaka Is signed yesterday for one year

0:41:13.760 --> 0:41:17.239
<v Speaker 1>ten mill with an option for Padres actually wanted him

0:41:17.239 --> 0:41:21.520
<v Speaker 1>to backup plan too. You think that that's what it was.

0:41:21.560 --> 0:41:23.120
<v Speaker 1>You think he chose to go back to Milwaukee or

0:41:23.160 --> 0:41:24.759
<v Speaker 1>do you think that is like, you know what, We're

0:41:24.800 --> 0:41:26.399
<v Speaker 1>not gonna sign you until we find out the deal

0:41:26.400 --> 0:41:30.520
<v Speaker 1>on the name with Jada, Okay, be that all right? So?

0:41:31.280 --> 0:41:34.799
<v Speaker 1>Um anyway, signs with the Brewers and all educations out

0:41:34.840 --> 0:41:36.880
<v Speaker 1>of brew Crew Camp. He's going to be He's going

0:41:36.920 --> 0:41:39.360
<v Speaker 1>to be given every opportunity to be the starting second

0:41:39.400 --> 0:41:43.440
<v Speaker 1>baseman for Milwaukee with Travis Shaw starting at third. If

0:41:43.520 --> 0:41:45.960
<v Speaker 1>that's the case, Frank, where would Musta fall in your

0:41:46.000 --> 0:41:49.839
<v Speaker 1>second base rankings? Yeah? I think it's a good question. Uh,

0:41:50.200 --> 0:41:53.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, there's some there's some lofty expectations for Mike

0:41:53.320 --> 0:41:55.680
<v Speaker 1>mustock Is now that he's in Milwaukee for a full season, right.

0:41:56.040 --> 0:41:57.880
<v Speaker 1>I know, some of the numbers kind of dipped off

0:41:57.960 --> 0:41:59.799
<v Speaker 1>last year when he went there, which was odd because

0:41:59.800 --> 0:42:02.480
<v Speaker 1>he and he was in Kaufman Stadium in Kansas City,

0:42:02.520 --> 0:42:06.080
<v Speaker 1>which is known for being, um not great hitters ballpark.

0:42:06.440 --> 0:42:09.120
<v Speaker 1>Uh and in thirty eight home runs there. And then

0:42:09.280 --> 0:42:11.279
<v Speaker 1>last year he was performing pretty well and then we

0:42:11.400 --> 0:42:14.680
<v Speaker 1>went over to Milwaukee, actually regressed a little bit. I

0:42:14.760 --> 0:42:16.279
<v Speaker 1>think it was, you know, him moving over to a

0:42:16.320 --> 0:42:18.440
<v Speaker 1>new league, new city. I think he you know, got

0:42:18.520 --> 0:42:20.920
<v Speaker 1>adjusted to it a little bit here. Um So I

0:42:20.960 --> 0:42:23.520
<v Speaker 1>think a full season in Milwaukee in that lineup in

0:42:23.640 --> 0:42:28.000
<v Speaker 1>that ballpark. Here are some projections that I've seen Derek Carty,

0:42:28.040 --> 0:42:30.040
<v Speaker 1>who who does who does the bat projections which you

0:42:30.080 --> 0:42:33.239
<v Speaker 1>can find over on fan graphs he has. Mike Musaki said,

0:42:33.280 --> 0:42:37.200
<v Speaker 1>two sixty thirty five home runs, ninety two r B

0:42:37.360 --> 0:42:41.360
<v Speaker 1>i s seventy nine runs scored as a second base

0:42:41.520 --> 0:42:47.160
<v Speaker 1>eligible player. Where would that rank? I mean, I think

0:42:47.160 --> 0:42:48.560
<v Speaker 1>it's got to be right there in the mix with

0:42:49.280 --> 0:42:52.120
<v Speaker 1>with the Daniel Murphy, labor Torret, Scooter Jenette. That's high.

0:42:53.120 --> 0:42:56.640
<v Speaker 1>That's high. But you just said Derrick Carty, I mean,

0:42:56.680 --> 0:42:59.839
<v Speaker 1>he does projections for a living. Two sixty home runs,

0:43:00.560 --> 0:43:02.000
<v Speaker 1>even if you scale that back a little bit. I

0:43:02.040 --> 0:43:05.360
<v Speaker 1>think I had my projection for him at to thirty

0:43:05.400 --> 0:43:07.479
<v Speaker 1>home runs. I didn't he's safe for thirty home runs.

0:43:08.239 --> 0:43:10.920
<v Speaker 1>You're not getting the same batting average with with Michael

0:43:11.000 --> 0:43:13.080
<v Speaker 1>Stocka says, you are with a guy like Daniel Murphy. Obviously,

0:43:13.160 --> 0:43:16.200
<v Speaker 1>Danie Murphy's gonna hit over three hundred in Colorado. Scooter Jeannette,

0:43:16.719 --> 0:43:20.080
<v Speaker 1>I think pretty safe for two seventy eight plus. You've

0:43:20.120 --> 0:43:22.520
<v Speaker 1>been over that the past two seasons. Labor Torre is

0:43:22.600 --> 0:43:25.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of the wild card here. Does it matter how

0:43:25.320 --> 0:43:27.359
<v Speaker 1>you normally build your team right, because it's second base,

0:43:27.440 --> 0:43:30.480
<v Speaker 1>you're not exactly expecting probably thirty home run power for

0:43:30.600 --> 0:43:33.640
<v Speaker 1>most second basement, and he won't have the eligibility against

0:43:33.640 --> 0:43:35.360
<v Speaker 1>to start the season. He's gonna have to play the

0:43:35.440 --> 0:43:38.000
<v Speaker 1>ten games or five games or whatever it is. It's

0:43:38.040 --> 0:43:41.399
<v Speaker 1>usually five or ten. Travis Shaw, this was interesting because

0:43:41.480 --> 0:43:43.359
<v Speaker 1>last year he actually played a little bit at second peace,

0:43:43.600 --> 0:43:45.560
<v Speaker 1>and they when they asked him about it, he said,

0:43:46.160 --> 0:43:48.200
<v Speaker 1>now I'm playing third base. They've told me I'm gonna

0:43:48.200 --> 0:43:50.320
<v Speaker 1>be the third baseman this year. So it's weird that

0:43:51.040 --> 0:43:52.680
<v Speaker 1>the guy that they tried out at second base. I

0:43:52.719 --> 0:43:54.520
<v Speaker 1>guess they really didn't like it, plase they didn't really

0:43:54.560 --> 0:43:57.160
<v Speaker 1>like Travis Shaw at second base. But now it's just

0:43:57.239 --> 0:43:59.880
<v Speaker 1>so unnatural it seems like a weird fit. Greig because

0:44:00.480 --> 0:44:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Michael Mustock is he's a great third baseman. Michae Lusakis

0:44:04.239 --> 0:44:06.759
<v Speaker 1>is already like a pretty good defensive third baseman, and

0:44:06.800 --> 0:44:09.520
<v Speaker 1>now you move them over to second. He's by all

0:44:09.520 --> 0:44:11.279
<v Speaker 1>in occasions. I don't think he's ever played second base.

0:44:12.120 --> 0:44:14.080
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't really have like the body, like the body

0:44:14.120 --> 0:44:16.279
<v Speaker 1>type to be a second baseman too. And on top

0:44:16.320 --> 0:44:19.160
<v Speaker 1>of all of this, Greg the Brewers top prospect who

0:44:19.239 --> 0:44:22.759
<v Speaker 1>just won the Arizona Fall League All Star. The m

0:44:22.840 --> 0:44:25.560
<v Speaker 1>v P of of the Arizona Fall League is Kessing

0:44:25.640 --> 0:44:29.320
<v Speaker 1>Hero and he's a second baseman. So now he's blocked

0:44:29.360 --> 0:44:33.480
<v Speaker 1>to It's just where wherever you know Shaw or Mosakas

0:44:33.520 --> 0:44:35.080
<v Speaker 1>was gonna play. It seemed like a weird fit. It

0:44:35.080 --> 0:44:37.279
<v Speaker 1>seemed like a weird fit last year. It seems weird

0:44:37.320 --> 0:44:39.640
<v Speaker 1>to me now that they signed him. Um, what I've

0:44:39.680 --> 0:44:41.040
<v Speaker 1>heard is that they don't want any holes in the

0:44:41.120 --> 0:44:43.640
<v Speaker 1>lineup at all, But you kind of limit yourself defensively.

0:44:43.680 --> 0:44:48.000
<v Speaker 1>I feel like, so, look from a fantasy perspective, it's

0:44:48.040 --> 0:44:50.080
<v Speaker 1>great to get another bat in that lineup. It just

0:44:50.200 --> 0:44:52.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, it makes that that lineup even deeper. But

0:44:53.320 --> 0:44:56.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, where would you would you rather have? So

0:44:57.040 --> 0:44:59.640
<v Speaker 1>I have Daniel Murphy, Labor Torres, Scooter Ganett as my five,

0:44:59.680 --> 0:45:02.480
<v Speaker 1>six and seven at second base, and then right behind them,

0:45:02.480 --> 0:45:05.080
<v Speaker 1>I have rugnetto Door and Jonathan VR and and de

0:45:05.200 --> 0:45:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Gordon and those are the guys you drift for stolen basis.

0:45:07.440 --> 0:45:10.680
<v Speaker 1>That's eight nine with with Robinson Canoe at eleven and

0:45:10.719 --> 0:45:15.279
<v Speaker 1>Travis Shaw I have right now at twelve. Should Mike

0:45:15.360 --> 0:45:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Mussakas be in that tier ahead of those, you know,

0:45:18.080 --> 0:45:20.200
<v Speaker 1>those those Odor and VR types who are gonna help

0:45:20.200 --> 0:45:22.960
<v Speaker 1>you out with stolen bases a little bit? Should he be?

0:45:23.080 --> 0:45:27.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Maybe he's behind no door because the

0:45:27.239 --> 0:45:30.799
<v Speaker 1>door I think you know too, sixty batting average, close

0:45:30.840 --> 0:45:32.800
<v Speaker 1>to thirty home runs, but also gonna give you stolen bass.

0:45:33.840 --> 0:45:40.120
<v Speaker 1>My initial impression he's he's in the Murphy tire. To me, man,

0:45:40.680 --> 0:45:44.439
<v Speaker 1>he's ahead of though he's ahead of all those guys's

0:45:44.440 --> 0:45:46.359
<v Speaker 1>projections are very long. I told you during the break,

0:45:46.400 --> 0:45:49.520
<v Speaker 1>I have I rather have him than Scooter Jeannette, I said,

0:45:49.520 --> 0:45:51.719
<v Speaker 1>that's you. I think you could. I think I'd rather

0:45:51.719 --> 0:45:55.640
<v Speaker 1>have them them. Labor Torres, he's with, he's with Daniel Murphy.

0:45:55.680 --> 0:45:57.520
<v Speaker 1>To me, if you look at the Labor is the

0:45:57.520 --> 0:45:59.719
<v Speaker 1>wild card because he was so great last year before

0:45:59.719 --> 0:46:02.320
<v Speaker 1>we got her, and then post injury kind of fell ter.

0:46:02.840 --> 0:46:04.880
<v Speaker 1>But he showed you what his his upside could be

0:46:04.920 --> 0:46:07.360
<v Speaker 1>before you get hurt last year. But yes, absolutely, But

0:46:07.440 --> 0:46:11.200
<v Speaker 1>to me, you know, to hit with thirty home runs,

0:46:11.239 --> 0:46:13.840
<v Speaker 1>that could bear if a full season with Mike mustakas

0:46:13.880 --> 0:46:15.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, you know exactly what you're getting. I think

0:46:15.560 --> 0:46:17.040
<v Speaker 1>there's something to be said for that. Like I know,

0:46:17.160 --> 0:46:19.160
<v Speaker 1>he seems old. He's only thirty years old though, will

0:46:19.160 --> 0:46:21.359
<v Speaker 1>be thirty one in September. You're getting a hundred fifty games,

0:46:21.400 --> 0:46:23.960
<v Speaker 1>You're getting thirty home runs. You're getting between this line

0:46:24.000 --> 0:46:25.440
<v Speaker 1>up a bunch of runs scored and a bunch of

0:46:25.480 --> 0:46:27.759
<v Speaker 1>rev Here's the difference though with Scooters doesn't strike out

0:46:27.760 --> 0:46:31.040
<v Speaker 1>all that much, hasn't been below two batting average each

0:46:31.040 --> 0:46:34.920
<v Speaker 1>of the past ten. So it's different lineup construction, it's

0:46:34.920 --> 0:46:38.320
<v Speaker 1>different roster construction. Gonna Janette versus Mustak is right. I

0:46:38.400 --> 0:46:41.080
<v Speaker 1>think I lean Jeannette because also a great lineup, also

0:46:41.160 --> 0:46:44.000
<v Speaker 1>a great hitters ballpark in Cincinnati. He's gonna beat second,

0:46:44.520 --> 0:46:46.720
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna beat right ahead of you know, Joey Vado

0:46:46.840 --> 0:46:48.919
<v Speaker 1>and Ya C. L. Pleague and all these other guys.

0:46:49.480 --> 0:46:51.960
<v Speaker 1>It's a great lineup. It's a great line up in Cincinnati.

0:46:52.160 --> 0:46:54.440
<v Speaker 1>And you know, the power came back a little bit

0:46:54.520 --> 0:46:56.120
<v Speaker 1>last year. But I think he's fast. Two years, it's

0:46:56.120 --> 0:47:00.880
<v Speaker 1>two years for Scott three. That's good. Yeah, I mean

0:47:01.040 --> 0:47:02.320
<v Speaker 1>I think he's still I mean, he's gonna be in

0:47:03.200 --> 0:47:05.080
<v Speaker 1>n range. The runs have been at least eighty, the

0:47:05.200 --> 0:47:08.120
<v Speaker 1>RBIs have been at least. You're gonna be a lot better.

0:47:08.160 --> 0:47:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Batting average average matters here, Greg, I'm still taking scooters.

0:47:11.640 --> 0:47:13.920
<v Speaker 1>You ahead of microm Stockers. Okay, all right, I'm not

0:47:13.920 --> 0:47:15.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna I'm not gonna argue with it. I'm

0:47:15.520 --> 0:47:17.480
<v Speaker 1>not gonna argue with it. But he's next one up

0:47:17.520 --> 0:47:20.160
<v Speaker 1>to me is who I'm excited about. And I'm excited

0:47:20.160 --> 0:47:23.080
<v Speaker 1>about o'door also. But o'dor actually gives you a few

0:47:23.120 --> 0:47:25.560
<v Speaker 1>stolen basis to which Michael Stockers will give you zero

0:47:25.880 --> 0:47:27.680
<v Speaker 1>give me nothing there. But I think he's gonna give

0:47:27.680 --> 0:47:29.400
<v Speaker 1>you more. He's gonna any more of your eis mustas

0:47:30.560 --> 0:47:35.680
<v Speaker 1>definitely probably strikes out last. Door's gonna back second in

0:47:35.719 --> 0:47:37.920
<v Speaker 1>the Rangers line up. Greg. It's terrible line up, though,

0:47:38.680 --> 0:47:41.200
<v Speaker 1>is it? Though? I think so since so two was

0:47:41.239 --> 0:47:44.440
<v Speaker 1>pretty good last year resurgence, He's gonna lead off, have

0:47:44.719 --> 0:47:47.439
<v Speaker 1>Joey Gallo, who's gonna bat in the middle of there

0:47:48.880 --> 0:47:55.000
<v Speaker 1>can just I don't love this lineup person, but if

0:47:55.080 --> 0:48:00.120
<v Speaker 1>it's still hitters, Wallpark's hidden, especially to right field with

0:48:00.280 --> 0:48:03.200
<v Speaker 1>Rugnando Door, what do they like to do her so much? Again?

0:48:04.560 --> 0:48:09.279
<v Speaker 1>He made He made drastic improvements to his approach at

0:48:09.320 --> 0:48:11.480
<v Speaker 1>the plate in terms of plate discipline. Walked more than

0:48:11.520 --> 0:48:13.440
<v Speaker 1>ever last year. He was basically a Z you're a

0:48:13.480 --> 0:48:15.880
<v Speaker 1>walking Last year I worked a lot with Shintu Chu

0:48:15.960 --> 0:48:18.920
<v Speaker 1>to actually improve his plate discipline. Didn't strike out as

0:48:19.040 --> 0:48:23.440
<v Speaker 1>much in his numbers. I believe it was by May.

0:48:23.600 --> 0:48:25.080
<v Speaker 1>By like the middle of May, he was betting one.

0:48:25.880 --> 0:48:27.560
<v Speaker 1>For the rest of the year. It was like a

0:48:27.640 --> 0:48:31.400
<v Speaker 1>two seventy hitter with you know, an eight percent walk rate.

0:48:31.680 --> 0:48:34.200
<v Speaker 1>Hard a percentage was at forty five point two percent,

0:48:34.320 --> 0:48:40.239
<v Speaker 1>his career high. His career high before that was I

0:48:40.280 --> 0:48:42.959
<v Speaker 1>have it through through May. Last year with Rugnando Door

0:48:43.160 --> 0:48:46.120
<v Speaker 1>hit one sixty nine with a four sixty seven ops

0:48:46.680 --> 0:48:51.359
<v Speaker 1>terrible and oh sixty two isolated power to thirty nine bad.

0:48:51.800 --> 0:48:54.480
<v Speaker 1>He was got off. Still had at hard hit rate

0:48:55.440 --> 0:49:00.160
<v Speaker 1>fly ball rate percent swinging strike rate from five one

0:49:00.320 --> 0:49:02.919
<v Speaker 1>on to the end of the season to sixty seven

0:49:03.000 --> 0:49:05.600
<v Speaker 1>hit or seven p s from the second base position,

0:49:06.040 --> 0:49:09.000
<v Speaker 1>eight percent walk great k rate. So he cut down

0:49:09.040 --> 0:49:12.560
<v Speaker 1>his strikeouts immensely. He lowered his swinging strike rate by

0:49:12.640 --> 0:49:16.319
<v Speaker 1>three percent, didn't chase pitches as much. Forty five point

0:49:16.400 --> 0:49:20.000
<v Speaker 1>six percent hard hit rate from one to the end

0:49:20.040 --> 0:49:21.800
<v Speaker 1>of the season from ruge netto door. That is a

0:49:21.880 --> 0:49:24.560
<v Speaker 1>second baseman with a forty five hard hit rate and

0:49:24.680 --> 0:49:26.960
<v Speaker 1>hits the ball in the air thirty nine percent of

0:49:27.000 --> 0:49:30.480
<v Speaker 1>the time in that ballpark in Texas, and he's gonna

0:49:30.480 --> 0:49:33.439
<v Speaker 1>steal bases on top of that. I think he's gonna

0:49:33.480 --> 0:49:35.400
<v Speaker 1>I think it could be a two sixty hitter this

0:49:35.520 --> 0:49:39.040
<v Speaker 1>year with twenty five runs and fifteen stone bases with

0:49:40.560 --> 0:49:45.799
<v Speaker 1>let's go with eight plus runs, maybe eighty five plus

0:49:45.920 --> 0:49:54.239
<v Speaker 1>runs and seventies seventy five RBI run fifteen bases to

0:49:54.360 --> 0:49:59.479
<v Speaker 1>sixty average grade. Do you like that more than stock

0:49:59.600 --> 0:50:01.160
<v Speaker 1>is gonna be when we're batting average gonna give you

0:50:01.200 --> 0:50:03.640
<v Speaker 1>more power, gonna give you more RBIs and give you

0:50:03.640 --> 0:50:05.720
<v Speaker 1>a few more runs, or give you no stone basis.

0:50:05.800 --> 0:50:09.120
<v Speaker 1>That's a difference. You're paying for fifteen stone basis, but

0:50:09.160 --> 0:50:11.920
<v Speaker 1>I think they should go in a similar range probably still,

0:50:13.600 --> 0:50:16.440
<v Speaker 1>it depends on what you need, how things changing sto

0:50:16.760 --> 0:50:18.839
<v Speaker 1>around such a long time. Odors adp is at one

0:50:18.960 --> 0:50:21.720
<v Speaker 1>Thirtystakis is one of those guys for a while, Stocks

0:50:21.800 --> 0:50:25.000
<v Speaker 1>was at one that's undoubtedly going to rise. Stack is

0:50:25.080 --> 0:50:28.560
<v Speaker 1>one of those guys for a while that they hated

0:50:29.480 --> 0:50:32.719
<v Speaker 1>with such passion because he always let me down, and

0:50:32.800 --> 0:50:35.520
<v Speaker 1>now my back in on him. What I like about

0:50:35.520 --> 0:50:37.720
<v Speaker 1>who stock is is he makes a lot of contact.

0:50:37.800 --> 0:50:40.000
<v Speaker 1>It's an underrated part of his game. Greg. If you

0:50:40.040 --> 0:50:43.719
<v Speaker 1>look at Mustakis absolutely doesn't strike out all that much,

0:50:44.000 --> 0:50:46.680
<v Speaker 1>and he hits the ball in the air. So the

0:50:46.719 --> 0:50:48.560
<v Speaker 1>hard hit rate came back last year. But he hits

0:50:48.640 --> 0:50:50.040
<v Speaker 1>the ball in the air alot. He makes a lot

0:50:50.080 --> 0:50:53.000
<v Speaker 1>of contact. That's gonna lead to home runs. Hitting in

0:50:53.080 --> 0:50:56.759
<v Speaker 1>Miller Park in Milwaukee, and if you hit home runs there,

0:50:57.200 --> 0:50:59.239
<v Speaker 1>the RBIs are gonna be there because you're in a

0:50:59.320 --> 0:51:02.960
<v Speaker 1>great lineup. Now, look is Mike mustak is gonna hit

0:51:03.040 --> 0:51:05.360
<v Speaker 1>clean up in this line Um? I don't know. I

0:51:05.400 --> 0:51:06.680
<v Speaker 1>think he might be a little bit lower. I think

0:51:06.680 --> 0:51:07.920
<v Speaker 1>he might. I think he might bet six in this

0:51:08.040 --> 0:51:11.600
<v Speaker 1>lineup with the Brewers. I have a lot of talent, definitely,

0:51:12.600 --> 0:51:15.200
<v Speaker 1>so he might be a little bit lower in the lineup. Dude,

0:51:15.520 --> 0:51:18.279
<v Speaker 1>more research, I do more Tommy Fam. Just keep showing

0:51:19.560 --> 0:51:22.400
<v Speaker 1>Tommy Fam, even for the outfield preview, Gad, I will man,

0:51:22.400 --> 0:51:25.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Um. Other than other Mike Mustock

0:51:25.960 --> 0:51:29.120
<v Speaker 1>is and of course other than Mannie Machado. Another big

0:51:29.200 --> 0:51:31.960
<v Speaker 1>piece of information just came out for our show, and

0:51:33.040 --> 0:51:36.000
<v Speaker 1>that's Carlos Smartine is not throwing the next couple of weeks.

0:51:36.920 --> 0:51:39.799
<v Speaker 1>And we had discussed a little bit about Carlo Spartinez

0:51:39.840 --> 0:51:41.799
<v Speaker 1>and you did a little bit last week as well.

0:51:42.960 --> 0:51:46.239
<v Speaker 1>But I'm very scared all of this, dude, right now,

0:51:46.760 --> 0:51:49.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he's Roles secure. I think they may

0:51:49.680 --> 0:51:54.520
<v Speaker 1>determine that he's just not healthy enough too be a starter.

0:51:55.160 --> 0:51:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Maybe he'll be the favorite to be the closer there,

0:51:57.440 --> 0:51:59.040
<v Speaker 1>but I don't know what you do when you're drafting

0:51:59.280 --> 0:52:03.719
<v Speaker 1>Carlos Partine us. Yeah, I'm pretty out here as well. Greg.

0:52:04.040 --> 0:52:05.600
<v Speaker 1>I thought you were getting him at a good price.

0:52:05.719 --> 0:52:08.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, he's going around the SP thirty s P

0:52:09.000 --> 0:52:11.600
<v Speaker 1>thirty five range, you know, thirty thirty five, you're getting

0:52:11.640 --> 0:52:14.080
<v Speaker 1>him there So this was a guy the past couple

0:52:14.080 --> 0:52:16.040
<v Speaker 1>of years who was, you know, a top fifteen, top

0:52:16.080 --> 0:52:19.040
<v Speaker 1>twenty starting pitcher quite consistently, so you were getting him

0:52:19.040 --> 0:52:21.399
<v Speaker 1>at the discount. But now with the news coming out

0:52:21.480 --> 0:52:23.440
<v Speaker 1>that you know he's been shut down, he will be

0:52:23.520 --> 0:52:25.399
<v Speaker 1>on a no throw program for the next two weeks

0:52:25.400 --> 0:52:28.640
<v Speaker 1>in order to strength in his shoulder. Strained in his

0:52:28.719 --> 0:52:32.960
<v Speaker 1>shoulder on on February nine. This is a long season.

0:52:33.080 --> 0:52:35.120
<v Speaker 1>You mentioned his role is not going to be secure

0:52:35.200 --> 0:52:38.040
<v Speaker 1>here if anything else happens with the shoulder. Last year

0:52:38.080 --> 0:52:41.200
<v Speaker 1>he was dealing with with a lot issue. Who's to

0:52:41.239 --> 0:52:43.319
<v Speaker 1>say he won't end up in the bullpen again? Greg, Sure,

0:52:43.640 --> 0:52:47.759
<v Speaker 1>So I just said so, yeah, I'm I'm worried as well,

0:52:47.920 --> 0:52:50.240
<v Speaker 1>especially around some of the names that he's going around

0:52:51.000 --> 0:52:55.320
<v Speaker 1>right now. Carlos Martinez, He's he's going around pick and NFBC,

0:52:55.520 --> 0:52:57.920
<v Speaker 1>a DP, a couple of starting pitchers that are going

0:52:58.040 --> 0:53:01.319
<v Speaker 1>right after him. Kyle Hendre too. Okay, I don't really

0:53:01.320 --> 0:53:04.360
<v Speaker 1>want to do the Kyle Hendricks experiment anymore. Helendricks is

0:53:04.400 --> 0:53:07.840
<v Speaker 1>a good guy to all right, He'll stabilize your ratios,

0:53:07.920 --> 0:53:10.200
<v Speaker 1>but he's not gonna give you any strikeouts. He throws

0:53:10.239 --> 0:53:12.520
<v Speaker 1>like eighty six miles per hour. I don't think I

0:53:12.520 --> 0:53:14.120
<v Speaker 1>really want to do the Kyle Hendrickson any I think

0:53:14.160 --> 0:53:18.600
<v Speaker 1>he's better for I think he's better for head to

0:53:18.640 --> 0:53:21.640
<v Speaker 1>head points leagues, and he is for for Rhodo. Robbie

0:53:21.680 --> 0:53:24.120
<v Speaker 1>Ray gonna give you a ton of strikeouts, but again,

0:53:24.160 --> 0:53:25.840
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna need to pair him with someone else in

0:53:26.000 --> 0:53:28.520
<v Speaker 1>order to help stabilize. I spoke with you a little

0:53:28.520 --> 0:53:30.320
<v Speaker 1>bit about this. You know, pairing Robbie Ray with a

0:53:30.360 --> 0:53:33.080
<v Speaker 1>guy like Miles michaelis makes a lot of sense because

0:53:33.080 --> 0:53:34.560
<v Speaker 1>Michael is gonna give you the ear a, He's gonna

0:53:34.560 --> 0:53:35.960
<v Speaker 1>give you the whip, but he's not gonna give you

0:53:36.040 --> 0:53:38.840
<v Speaker 1>the strikeouts. Robbie Ray will, We'll give you the strikeouts,

0:53:38.880 --> 0:53:40.759
<v Speaker 1>and and kind of where are you in terms of

0:53:40.800 --> 0:53:43.000
<v Speaker 1>all those other categories with the era and the whip

0:53:43.280 --> 0:53:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Chris Archer, I'm still gonna do some more research because, like,

0:53:47.920 --> 0:53:50.000
<v Speaker 1>I want to buy in him going to Pittsburgh, but

0:53:50.080 --> 0:53:52.040
<v Speaker 1>he wasn't good there last year. I think it's been

0:53:52.120 --> 0:53:54.759
<v Speaker 1>three straight seasons with an ear a over four. He

0:53:54.760 --> 0:53:56.759
<v Speaker 1>could still strike people out, but the whip hasn't been

0:53:56.800 --> 0:53:58.640
<v Speaker 1>great either. He's gonna be in that you know one

0:53:58.680 --> 0:54:03.719
<v Speaker 1>point to one point two five whip range with archer Um,

0:54:04.239 --> 0:54:05.440
<v Speaker 1>so I got I gotta do a little bit more

0:54:05.480 --> 0:54:06.920
<v Speaker 1>research on him. But as of now, if I were

0:54:06.960 --> 0:54:09.680
<v Speaker 1>drafting day, I would take him over Carlos Martinez as well,

0:54:10.200 --> 0:54:12.960
<v Speaker 1>and then getting a little bit lower like Tanaka. I'd

0:54:13.040 --> 0:54:15.279
<v Speaker 1>rather have Tanaka. The skills are still there. People really

0:54:15.280 --> 0:54:19.200
<v Speaker 1>don't like Tanaka. Huh. Our guy, Maddie Mode still he

0:54:19.320 --> 0:54:22.600
<v Speaker 1>still loves Sanaka. Laid it out beautifully in his his

0:54:22.640 --> 0:54:26.560
<v Speaker 1>starting picture breakdown for the Athletics. So Massiro Tanaka, I'll

0:54:26.560 --> 0:54:30.480
<v Speaker 1>wait a little bit. I'll take him over Carlos Martinez. You, Darvish,

0:54:30.880 --> 0:54:35.640
<v Speaker 1>good luck trying to figure out you. Darvish, Greg What

0:54:35.760 --> 0:54:38.560
<v Speaker 1>do you do with you? Darvish is here, He's going

0:54:38.640 --> 0:54:40.719
<v Speaker 1>to pick one fifty and we know he has the

0:54:40.800 --> 0:54:47.800
<v Speaker 1>upside to return fifteen value. We could be talking about you,

0:54:47.880 --> 0:54:50.279
<v Speaker 1>Darvis as the third fourth round pick this time next year,

0:54:50.320 --> 0:54:52.320
<v Speaker 1>you're getting in the tenth round range. Not only is

0:54:52.360 --> 0:54:55.120
<v Speaker 1>he not healthy, he wasn't good last year even when

0:54:55.120 --> 0:54:56.960
<v Speaker 1>he was healthy. I don't even know what his injuries were.

0:54:57.560 --> 0:54:59.800
<v Speaker 1>What were his injuries? Body? I think I think he

0:54:59.920 --> 0:55:02.000
<v Speaker 1>was every time you tried to look up you, darbish.

0:55:02.120 --> 0:55:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Last year he was like, I don't feel right. What

0:55:04.760 --> 0:55:09.040
<v Speaker 1>does that mean? He was dealing with elbow injuries. You

0:55:09.080 --> 0:55:11.080
<v Speaker 1>gotta ask doctorate a little bit more about you, Darvish.

0:55:11.719 --> 0:55:14.200
<v Speaker 1>But there there's a lot of pictures that are going

0:55:14.320 --> 0:55:16.360
<v Speaker 1>basically right after this range, that are going, you know,

0:55:16.440 --> 0:55:18.719
<v Speaker 1>around SP forty or a little bit after that that

0:55:18.920 --> 0:55:21.160
<v Speaker 1>I'll wait. I'm not gonna take a Carls Martinez and

0:55:21.280 --> 0:55:23.000
<v Speaker 1>just load up on a bunch of those guys. Greg

0:55:23.320 --> 0:55:26.560
<v Speaker 1>you heard Matt Modiga kind of uh, pour out of

0:55:26.680 --> 0:55:30.520
<v Speaker 1>heart for some of these guys, Shane Bieber, Andrew Heeney,

0:55:31.200 --> 0:55:36.520
<v Speaker 1>and Wardo Rodriguez, Tyler Glass, now Nathan Vivaldi and even

0:55:36.600 --> 0:55:38.959
<v Speaker 1>later on the mat Joe Musgrove. So I'm not gonna

0:55:39.000 --> 0:55:40.960
<v Speaker 1>take Carls Martinez where he's going. I'm gonna wait a

0:55:41.000 --> 0:55:43.279
<v Speaker 1>couple of rounds and then just kinda load up on

0:55:43.320 --> 0:55:45.560
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of those starting pitchers. Those are the starting

0:55:45.600 --> 0:55:49.680
<v Speaker 1>pitchers that we need to identify this season. Last year

0:55:49.840 --> 0:55:53.800
<v Speaker 1>it was Jameson tie On, it was Drew Corbin, it

0:55:53.880 --> 0:55:56.560
<v Speaker 1>was Blake Now they were going outside the top thirty

0:55:56.600 --> 0:55:58.759
<v Speaker 1>five starting pitcher. They were going in that you know,

0:55:59.160 --> 0:56:01.120
<v Speaker 1>and maybe not as thirty five. They were going that

0:56:01.320 --> 0:56:04.600
<v Speaker 1>Spirt spp four range last year, and those were the

0:56:04.680 --> 0:56:07.920
<v Speaker 1>guys that returned the most value for starting pitchers. Those

0:56:07.920 --> 0:56:10.239
<v Speaker 1>are the guys being drafted inside the top twenty. Even

0:56:10.360 --> 0:56:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Jack Flaherty, who was going much later on, who we

0:56:13.400 --> 0:56:15.960
<v Speaker 1>found out closer to the start of the season was

0:56:16.000 --> 0:56:17.839
<v Speaker 1>going to be in the rotation for the St. Louis

0:56:17.880 --> 0:56:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Cardinals and then he was kind of in and out,

0:56:19.960 --> 0:56:23.120
<v Speaker 1>but he's going, you know, top twenty starting pitchers. Now,

0:56:23.320 --> 0:56:25.360
<v Speaker 1>those are the guys that we have to identify. Definitely.

0:56:25.360 --> 0:56:26.920
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna try our best to do so. You know,

0:56:27.160 --> 0:56:29.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot of these guys that Modica likes, you might

0:56:30.000 --> 0:56:32.640
<v Speaker 1>not want to hear it. Craig Nathan of Baldi, He's

0:56:32.640 --> 0:56:34.120
<v Speaker 1>going to be a guy that I'm all over this season.

0:56:34.360 --> 0:56:36.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be all over. I didn't ate it when

0:56:36.680 --> 0:56:38.120
<v Speaker 1>you were you kind of sold me last week. I

0:56:38.239 --> 0:56:41.960
<v Speaker 1>was listening, man, I was listening Catcher's Next Hour. Kind

0:56:41.960 --> 0:56:45.600
<v Speaker 1>of start the preview. Catcher Preview, Next Hour, Next
