But I 13 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 1: don't remember how long. 14 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 3: It's a while. 15 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 2: It's been a while, dude, it's been too long. Too long, 16 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 2: as the kids would say, No, the kids don't say 17 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 2: that it's been too long.

Playoff runs are happening, 24 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: so it's an important time.

Plus some 28 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: I have a speculative prospect that I think has to 29 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 1: come up, has to come up, which we'll talk about here. 30 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 1: Plus we're gonna be making some bets. Actually laid down, 31 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: I did the stupid thing, tracked my bets last night, 32 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: went to bed forgot to put them in, and then 33 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: I did it this morning and got hit with a 34 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: little bit of the odds, which was no fun. But 35 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: still playing some bets. We're gonna be doing all of 36 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: that here. It is nice to see you all, and 37 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 1: thank you for some of the tweets of people being 38 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: like where's leading off? It's like we just we took 39 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: that Monday off and it completely threw me off. My 40 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: Monday felt like a Sunday. Today does not feel like 41 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: a Wednesday, especially with this being the first leading off 42 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 1: of the week. So we're gonna have some adjustment period, 43 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: so hopefully you guys will hang with us. We're gonna 44 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: kick off the show with how about freakin' jose al 45 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: tuove Altuve homeward in each of his first three the 46 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: first three innings actually say, three at bats, but the 47 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: first three innings yesterday. He has got homers in four 48 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: straight played appearances which went back to Monday, and five 49 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: homers over six played appearances. It's the most in a 50 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: two game span in Astro's history, and tied for the 51 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,959 Speaker 1: most over two games in MLB history. But but yeah, 52 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: Bagman and I had done a decent amount about Jose 53 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: Al Tuve recently, within the last month or so, just 54 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: talking about you know, the injuries have kind of derailed 55 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: his season. He was one of those guys that we 56 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: put out as like a trade target before the trade deadline, 57 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: just because you know, he was kind of quietly sitting 58 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: around really not doing any I mean, he was doing 59 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: some stuff, but it the miss time and the production 60 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: didn't add up to where the value is. You look now, 61 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 1: career high barrel percentage, his batting his XBA, by the way, 62 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 1: two point fifty two is one of the lower he's 63 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: had over the last couple of years. But he's got 64 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: the highest wOBA of his career right now at four 65 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 1: to twelve. He's hitting the ball crazy hard right now. 66 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: He is a monster, and if he doesn't get too 67 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: too hot, he's going to become a value next year 68 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: in fantasy. But he's a guy that is you know, 69 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 1: he's a guy that's gonna ride you to your championship 70 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 1: right now. 71 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's helping teams cruise to the victory line right now. 72 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to see how he finishes up. But yeah, 73 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 2: three twenty one average, fifteen homers, thirteen steals given. Five 74 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 2: of those fifteen home runs came in two games lately. 75 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 2: But he's still walking a ton. You mentioned the you know, 76 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 2: you mentioned the whoe, but two forty three ISO shows 77 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 2: that the power is pretty darn legit as well, and 78 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 2: the overall numbers just great for Rozel Twove. Injuries did 79 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 2: derail his season, and I guess that'd be my biggest 80 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 2: concern going forward with him as he's thirty three now, 81 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: be thirty four next season. Yeah, this could be a 82 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 2: thing going forward, So it's tough to like fully invest 83 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 2: in the future, but for now, enjoy it because he's 84 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 2: helping teams in a big, big way. 85 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: Next not to do the whole next but we were 86 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: literally just talking about this off air. We'd like to 87 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: try not to go too much into talking about next year, 88 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: but we're gonna kind of do it because there's some 89 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: things we're gonna talk about here that it's just like, 90 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: where's the relevancy to right now? Well, who would you 91 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: rather have or who do you think you're gonna have 92 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: next year at second base? Jose al Tuve or Jazz Chisholm. 93 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 3: That's a good one, pooh question. 94 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 2: I like Chisholm's ceiling more than al Tuove, so I 95 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 2: probably gamble on Chishom. 96 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 3: But two, it's pretty darn safe. 97 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: How about who plays more games next year? 98 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 3: Jazz probably A. 99 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean so I think I think that will 100 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: be the thing we're starting to talk about next year 101 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: when we're looking at that second base spot. Ozzi has 102 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 1: kind of solidified. He's taken off Yeah yeah, yeah, like 103 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 1: he he's created the tier. Well, really, I should actually 104 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,799 Speaker 1: say Mooki because Mookie playing so much second base that's crazy. 105 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: Has Mooki gotten to twenty this year? 106 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 3: I believe, So I'll double check. I think it's shortstop. 107 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 2: He's like one or two short, but it's a he's 108 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 2: gonna be second base outfit eligible next year, so. 109 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: He'll be number one second base and then it'll be 110 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: like his tier, and then it'll be the Ozzie Tier 111 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: and then we'll move down. And I think that's where 112 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna live in Li the Jazz Altuove range, and 113 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be like do you want 114 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: the production that you trust or are you going to 115 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: go in with the ceiling of Josel Tuve. 116 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 2: He's played fifty three I can't be right. So it 117 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 2: has played fifty three games at second base this year, 118 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 2: sixteen at shortstop, and ninety seven in the outfield. 119 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,799 Speaker 1: Does that math work out? That doesn't that math doesn't 120 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: work out. 121 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 3: I guess, well, well, it might have been shifting in 122 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 3: and out of game. 123 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: But how many started? Because he probably. 124 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,799 Speaker 2: They're saying forty seven starts at second base. 125 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 3: That doesn't seem right. 126 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: But is that someone who's been paying attention? 127 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 3: Has that been That doesn't seem right? But maybe, like 128 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 3: I'm looking at it, it's on fangrass and I'm like it. 129 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: I'll tell you this though, like so like Fred just 130 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: put this in the chat. He's like, Keel Marte has 131 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: been solid. This has nothing to do with Ketel Marte. 132 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: This is like a I'm so excited to start talking 133 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 1: about the next year, values into the off season and 134 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: building the right because it's like these questions. Richard said, 135 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: how about this one at McClain or Altuve. You know, 136 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: McLain absolute monster. Obviously the injury towards the end isn't 137 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,559 Speaker 1: gonna help, but that's you're gonna probably appreciate his value 138 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: a little bit, which is gonna be phenomenal. I'll present 139 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: this to you if Altuve is a what'd you say, 140 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: fourth rounder? 141 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 3: Third rounder by a fourth rounder. If he's a. 142 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: Fourth rounder and McLain is a seventh rounder, I'm gonna 143 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: take McLain. Yeah, I'm gonna take McLain on the value, 144 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: and I think that's what we're gonna be looking at. 145 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 1: But al Tuove, I guess the point is though he 146 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: could even drop further because of the age and the 147 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: not big counting stats, because of the mistime, and he 148 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: might be a major target next year instead of doing 149 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 1: some chasing, instead of me doing some crazy chasing at 150 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: the position trying to get the upside of jazz, or 151 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,919 Speaker 1: what if that flipped, what if it's like McLain in 152 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 1: the fifth and Altuve in the sixth. 153 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 2: Let's have fun with this like the sime and simeon. 154 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 2: But al Tuove, your house on Kim. 155 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: So if it's a huge, if this is Altuve in 156 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 1: the fourth or Kim in the ninth, let take Kim. 157 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 2: See this second base is actually interesting. I just pulled 158 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 2: up some guys here, you know, Thyrostrado missed some time, 159 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 2: still going to finish with ten homers, nineteen steals and 160 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 2: then add on to whatever he does the rest of 161 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 2: the month. Labor Torres is awesome, and he kind of 162 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 2: gets overlooked a lot, and Andres Jimenez average is in 163 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 2: great but power speed still there. So it's a better position, 164 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 2: I think. And then does like Horry Palanko or Edward 165 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 2: Julian make a step forward to your liking type situation. 166 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: Let me present this to you. Is this going to 167 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: be the first time we usually actually do it with 168 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: third base, but this is the first time in forever, 169 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: first time in for it that we're not going to 170 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: cry about second base. It actually might be actually deep. 171 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 2: Literally pulling that page up, I'm like, I could live 172 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 2: with ten to maybe fifth at this point in time. 173 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 2: Obviously we'll break it down more, but I could sleep 174 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 2: at nights going, okay, one of these top fifteen guys, okay, cool, 175 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 2: I can live with that. 176 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: I think that's what's going to be nice. It's really 177 00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: going to be about what that you know, the position 178 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: is going to end up looking like a reminder again. 179 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: Any questions pop them in, we're gonna be answering them 180 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: for your playoff runs here in just a tiny bit. 181 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: Also in the news, Angels manager Phil Nevin was speaking 182 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: to reporters on Tuesday said that Otani's right bleak injury 183 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: is quote just a tiny bit of inflammation. Who was 184 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: a late scratch on Monday. It kind of followed with 185 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: saying he's going to avoid the injured list at least 186 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: for now and they'll be monitored day to day. I 187 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: am still shocked that Otani is going and that he 188 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: hasn't shut it down. There are people clamoring shut it down, 189 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: get the injury eno and I if people want to 190 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: listen on rates and barrels, we actually talked about this situation, 191 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,959 Speaker 1: and you know, I'm forgetting what the surgery was. Had 192 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: described a type of surgery that you can do that 193 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: could knock you down for six months, which was story Hud. 194 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 1: I think so, and it's it's like a brace almost 195 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: not a thing. That's what it is. It was, Yeah, 196 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: it was like the brace in the arm and what 197 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: that would do with that could bring him back hitting 198 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: by spring training. He actually if you were to go now, 199 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: because what they said was the recovery time is like 200 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 1: a six month period, but you can start hitting after four. 201 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: If he did it now, he could start hitting in January, 202 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: which would get you good for March April, and then 203 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: maybe wherever he is doesn't look like it's gonna be 204 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: the Angels now all that like oo, they're going to 205 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 1: swind back with the Angels, all that nasty stuff. If 206 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: if you want to play a little slow, maybe he 207 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: doesn't pitch until May, and that gives him more time 208 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: to recover. I'm saying all this to say that the 209 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: injury that he's got has looked like it's not as 210 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:40,239 Speaker 1: serious to if you hit, you're not going to reaggravate 211 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: it too much, so you can continue to hit. But 212 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 1: the potential options here versus what he can do the 213 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: rest of the season, they do not make sense for 214 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 1: what he's doing right now. If you're going to go 215 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: land your big contract, you're trying to recover, if you're 216 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 1: dealing with any little tiny bits of inflammation. If I 217 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 1: say the word inflammation. When you have a Tommy John 218 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: surgery looming right now and you're a two way player, 219 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: shut it down. Some shocked that he's still not shut down, 220 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: but that's the latest news about it. I've got him 221 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: in a head to head playoff run right now and 222 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,839 Speaker 1: it is absolutely brutal. And he's a hitter pitcher now, 223 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: he's a hitter, and I don't I don't know if 224 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 1: I trust to start him, and I think it's I 225 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: think it's going to sink me, Bubba. 226 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, well I hope it doesn't sink you. I can 227 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 2: see where your head's at on that though, because I 228 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 2: think there's a lot of people with those same sentiments 229 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 2: out there right now. He should have had surgery a 230 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 2: while ago, like this oblique thing. It came out later 231 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 2: on Monday, earlier in the day, his agent, Otani's agent 232 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 2: even came out and said Otani will have a procedure. 233 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 2: His goal is to DH all of next season is 234 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,959 Speaker 2: pitching twenty twenty five. Thus, what you and you know 235 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:43,599 Speaker 2: were talking about, and the first thing it came to 236 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 2: mind was the Trevor story deal. Because six months gets 237 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 2: you back out there playing catch. You said, four months 238 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 2: hitting and that's going to help him out a ton, 239 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 2: obviously in the contract. 240 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 3: Side of things, but that means you need to have 241 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 3: it now. 242 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: That's how it now, Yeah, exactly, because if you wait 243 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: to finish out the year, then you're going to start 244 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: a hitting program in February when camps are going up. 245 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: You do it now, and you're leading yourself into spring training. 246 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 3: And it's like, he's it's so weird. 247 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 2: Because we talked about, Okay, maybe if he plays out 248 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 2: the season, that means he'll sign with the Angels again 249 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 2: on a short deal because they can you know, Okay, 250 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: if you missed the first month whatever, we've had you 251 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 2: this time. 252 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 3: Great. It's just such a weird situation. I don't get 253 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 3: it at all. 254 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: Did you see in one of the greatest things of 255 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: all time the photo shoot from yesterday with just the guy? 256 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: There's like some random gage. 257 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 3: Did you see what I tweeted out about it? Apparently not. 258 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 2: No, there's a picture and it shows the guy standing there, 259 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 2: and then in front of him is like Trout and 260 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 2: Rendona and stuff. I said, the only thing crazier than 261 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 2: a stand in for Otani because they're gonna basically photoshop 262 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: his face on him. The only thing crazier than that 263 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 2: is Anthony Rendon remembered how to put a baseball jersey. 264 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: Ar I did, right, I mean, I think Grendon's the worst. 265 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: Like the day before, Oh yeah, no, I know he's able, yeah, no, 266 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: hobbleringlass when someone tried to interview I think he's one 267 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: of the worst. And there are people come, you know, 268 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: and there's probably because like there are guys that kind 269 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: of suck but are beloved. Like listen, Granky kind of 270 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 1: sucks in some ways, like he's not a pleasant person 271 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: to other baseball players, to fans. He does quirky things 272 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: that sometimes suck, but sometimes they're also like really funny. 273 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: So he's he's a kind of like he's kind of jerky, 274 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: but in a in a in a way that we 275 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: can relate with at some points, like like, for instance, 276 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: in spring training last year, I've actually seen this guy. 277 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,319 Speaker 1: There was this guy that has this entire jump suit 278 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: that's like a it's like a weed jumpsuit. It's most 279 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: ridiculous that he looks like an insane person. And he 280 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 1: had asked Granky for his autograph, and Granky looked at 281 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 1: him and he said, if I can take a picture 282 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 1: of you, and sure enough he did, and he posted 283 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: it like that's funny. That's that's actually really funny. Rendon 284 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 1: sucks like he's not like he he I don't know 285 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 1: what the redeeming quality about him is in general, he 286 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:56,239 Speaker 1: just stinks. 287 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's bad, bad deal all around. So hopefully that 288 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 2: gets resolved quickly. Also, maybe that's what Atani's waiting for. 289 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 2: You either get rid of him or I'm gonna play 290 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 2: it out and go somewhere. 291 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: Oh my god, that would be the coole the best. 292 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's a disaster and I'm so excited, we're 293 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: all excited for Actually, as a card person, I think 294 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 1: tops should take that picture of the stand in Otani 295 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: and make that a card of. 296 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 3: That should be like an air or an alternate card 297 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 3: or something on percent. 298 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: That would be amazing. 299 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 2: Like you have the team picture card, the Angels card, 300 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 2: but half of them, like a quarter of them have 301 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 2: the fake Otani. 302 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: Perfect so funny, have be so funny. Julio Rodriguez two 303 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: for five with four RBI yesterday, two homers. I believe 304 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: as well. Since August first. Check this out. Julio has 305 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: played twenty nine games since August first, Bob, are you 306 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: looking at the sheet? 307 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 3: I just pulled it up. I haven't read it. 308 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: Don't get it, don't look at it. How many games 309 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: of those twenty nine games has he not registered a hit? 310 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 2: Since I play him in DFS almost every single day 311 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 2: and on props, out of the twenty nine games, he said, yeah, 312 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say he didn't register a hit in four. 313 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: You nailed it. You absolutely nailed it. Four games, four 314 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: games of his last twenty nine since August first, he 315 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: has not had a hit in that period of time. 316 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: He has the second highest war in baseball. He has 317 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: ten homers and the second most stolen bases during that time, 318 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: which is bonkers have believed evert twenty five but twelve 319 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 1: twelve stolen bases in that time. And it's you know, 320 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter. It's again, this is one of 321 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: those things. What does it help you right now? It's 322 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: just a reaffirmation of Juliardriguez's value going into next season, 323 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: there'll be no actual value because had he ended cold, 324 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: he'd have probably been like five or six or something 325 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: maybe at the back end. But when we go back 326 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: and look at this season, even if people have checked 327 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: out because football this week, you're gonna see Julliard Regez 328 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: is lead and he's yeah, he's going to be easy 329 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: top five. 330 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 3: If not the number two, you might be the second 331 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 3: hitter after Accoon. 332 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: You know, he might have solidified himself as top three. 333 00:14:58,400 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 3: I mean, legit, like good argument. 334 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 2: The argument between Bets and Julio is the one that's 335 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 2: gonna be a fun one because we had the Bets 336 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 2: talk last week. Now with Julio entering the chat, that 337 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 2: gets really interesting real quick. 338 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: Well there's a bunch of I mean, you know, and 339 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: then you throw in like, you know, Carol has kind 340 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: of tapered back a little bit, but when you look 341 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: at his season totals, you're going to be like, whoa. 342 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: And then Bobby Witt as well. But Julio, with what 343 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: Julio's done right here, this might have solidified two or three. 344 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: So it was like a top three overall. He has 345 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 1: been going nuts. A guy that has been going nuts 346 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: that I think we talked about recently Jordan Walker, and 347 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: someone said, please don't bring him up here, but we've 348 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: got to. He is going off. He has three straight 349 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: multi hit games, three straight games with a homer after 350 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: going three for four with three runs and two RBI. 351 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 1: He also had a homer yesterday. And I've talked about 352 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: him in a couple different spots. I think Jordan Walker 353 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 1: he's borderlining the values gone now of what you're going 354 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: to be able to get him in the off season 355 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: for like a good value. But here's my question. I 356 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: think we've asked this two or three times this season. 357 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: You know, as the season has gone on right now, 358 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: rest of season, would you rather have Jordan Walker or 359 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: would you rather have Ellie Daily Cruz Jordan Walker? 360 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 2: Okay, I think he's more of a peer hitter like 361 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 2: Daily Cruise is way too much for you can miss 362 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 2: still and like you mentioned Walker's success seven game hitting 363 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 2: streak right now, hitting six hundred, Like, dude's a beast. 364 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: He's going crazy. He's finding his rhythm and that's the 365 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: important thing. 366 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 3: And a young player. Shocker. 367 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I had what was the one Eno and I 368 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: were talking about Jordan Walker? I had, I had done 369 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: a Oh, I asked him this one, Jordan Walker or 370 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: Royce Lewis next year. 371 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm still a Royce Lewis guy. I'm still a 372 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 2: Royce Lewis guy. But I respect I won't that's one 373 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 2: of those. I won't to argue you if you pick 374 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 2: Jordan Walker. 375 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: That's very fair, you know, and I both picked Jordan 376 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: Walker for next year, but. 377 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 2: Questions the rest of this season teammates Jordan Walker or 378 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 2: Tyler O'Neil. 379 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, Tyler neil had three hits yesterday as well. 380 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: I think I go Walker, Yeah, Marmel still I think 381 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 1: he deals still deep down hates Tyler O'Neill. So feels like, yeah, 382 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: like I think there's always a chance, but like Jordan 383 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 1: Walker is just on a complete tear right now. Lower 384 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: strikeout guy makes really good, really really big haryard contact. 385 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: I think Jordan Walker is a guy we could see 386 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: hit thirty homers next year. And I don't know if 387 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: that's like people like duh or not, but like, he 388 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: hasn't hit quite at the level and I don't think 389 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: his pace numbers go there, but I think he's going 390 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: to hit thirty homers next year, especially as he's found 391 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 1: his comfortability. And I think a really good key to 392 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 1: like young players like this. Maybe you can throw it 393 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: out for veterans, but a guy that can come up, 394 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: can struggle, can be sent down, can come back, struggle 395 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 1: and then just pop. You've overcome that adversity, and I 396 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 1: think you can take a lot of that going into 397 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 1: next season, and we'll have a lot of breakdowns of 398 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: Jordan Walker because he has been pretty awesome. And then finally, 399 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: just throwing this out, John Carlos Stanton reached a He 400 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 1: reached his four hundredth home run with the Yankees at 401 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: they beat the Tigers. He's the fourth fast this in 402 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 1: Major League history to get to four hundred homers, only 403 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: behind Mark McGuire, Babe Ruth, Alex Rodriguez, and Albert Poolholz 404 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 1: is that these numbers look a little different at the 405 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 1: stat Maybe this was like doubles or something, because the 406 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 1: numbers that are there are weird. But that was what 407 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 1: I saw, that he was one of the fastest to 408 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 1: get to four hundred. So gean Carlos Stanton doing some stuff. 409 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: Here's some rookie lookies. Jason Dimingez has hits in every 410 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: single game he's played. Plus he's hit two homers over 411 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: the weekend. And let's throw on top of it hitting 412 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: third for the Yankees. Hitting third, I was very vocal 413 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: about Jason Dimingez. A lot of prospects are out there, 414 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,719 Speaker 1: but I said, twelve team five outfield er, not to 415 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,119 Speaker 1: be not to be like Joe, like I told you, 416 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: but did say like, this is a guy that I 417 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: was immediately picking up. I was putting priority over a 418 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 1: lot of other You guys can hear me sometimes, like 419 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: we'll talk about a prospect and I want to like 420 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 1: be like, oh no, because I'm not a black and 421 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: white guy. Like I think there's gray area with stuff, 422 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: and there's so many people that will talk you in 423 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 1: affirmatives like this is how it goes. I don't think 424 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: that's true, and I don't think anybody knows those. But 425 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: you'll hear when I kind of perk up about certain 426 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 1: guys and I'll be a little bit more aggressive about them. 427 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: I was like that with Ellie, was like that with 428 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: Strand for better or for worse, And I was like 429 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,360 Speaker 1: that with Jason Dimingez coming up and he has been 430 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 1: awesome and hitting three for the Yankees, Bubba, do you 431 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: trust Jason Dimingue's rest of season as a fifth outfielder 432 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: in a twelve team. 433 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 2: One hundred percent? I added him in one of my twelves. 434 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 2: He wasn't added in the other two. I talked about 435 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,199 Speaker 2: that on my show. So he'll be a heavy target 436 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 2: this week. And I've been playing them every day on DFS. 437 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 2: He's been too cheap bat and third in that lineup. 438 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 2: The way he's in Big Fan, he's been nuts. 439 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 1: Now here's a prospect that I think needs to come up. 440 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: It needs to come up this week. And this is 441 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 1: gonna be my predictor thing, because if it doesn't happen 442 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: this week, I don't know what we're doing. Arizona Diamondbacks 443 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: Jordan Lawler needs to come up. He now has four 444 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: straight multi hit games. Last night he had two home 445 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: and in the month of September. He's up in the 446 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: PCL right now, so the numbers are a little inflated, 447 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 1: but in September he is hitting over six hundred. He 448 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: has been an absolute monster. Let me throw these numbers 449 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: to you, Bubba Nick Ahmed. Over his last ten games 450 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: is hitting not I was about to say a buck 451 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 1: zero point four to five with an under two hundred 452 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: OVP and an under one hundred slug. He has one run, 453 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: no homers, no RBIs, no stolen bases. Those are his 454 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 1: last ten games. Perldo Perdomo hit two point fifty in 455 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:40,200 Speaker 1: August with one homer and fourteen combined RBI in runs, 456 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 1: he is hitting one eleven in September. The Arizona Diamondbacks 457 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 1: are one game out of the wild Card right now. 458 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 1: Their shortstop is a complete void. It's completely devoid of production. 459 00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 1: Right now, Nick Ahmed's gotta go. Jordan Lawler is absolutely 460 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: on fire. I think he's got twenty homers, thirty plus 461 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 1: stolen bases. He needs to get the call. He won't 462 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 1: be able to help them for the playoff run because 463 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: they were stupid and they didn't bring him up before September. 464 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 1: Horribly horribly idiotic move. But they got to get some 465 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 1: offense from that position. Jordan Lawler is there. He's a 466 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 1: great defender. So Jordan Lawler has to come up. I 467 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: would be preemptively adding him right now if he's sitting 468 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 1: around just to see if it happens over the next week. Doesn't. 469 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: I don't know why the hell they would do it 470 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: with like a week to go, but right now you 471 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 1: could get like three good weeks out of this guy. 472 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: So I believe Jordan Lawler's got to get the call 473 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 1: up and it has to happen in the next like 474 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 1: four or five days. 475 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, it should happen in the next twenty four hours. 476 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 2: Like the fact Nicko Meta still has a pulse and 477 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 2: a major league roster is enough. Said like, you could 478 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 2: have literally stopped with Nika Med before you ran all 479 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 2: the rest of the stats there, and I would have 480 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 2: been like, Yep, sounds good. 481 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 3: So I'm with you. 482 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: I think they only keep him met up up for 483 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 2: his defense and not only the guy's that great anymore. 484 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, but you got Predomo, that's my Predomo was 485 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: an All Star. And like Dan was like, hey, Perdomo 486 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 1: is great and a Perdomo is a good player. 487 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 3: He's a great player to have. 488 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 1: On your team. Nick Omed is a gold Glove defender. 489 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: We don't need that. Perdomo is a great defender. Jordan 490 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: Lawler is a great defender. There's no bat with Ahmed. 491 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:19,360 Speaker 1: Let Amed go or do whatever you gotta do. Caught 492 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 1: him and put him on the bench. Get Jordan Lawler 493 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: up and let him get some starts there. And if 494 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: you're worried about a rookie later in the game, defensively 495 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: replace him with Perdomo. Mess around with your lineup, get production. 496 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,719 Speaker 1: There's literally no production coming out of that spot, and 497 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: you have one of the best prospects in baseball sitting 498 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 1: at Triple A. He can do like, so it's got 499 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: to happen. I think the diamback's got to do it, 500 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 1: especially with a wild card race. I could understand like 501 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 1: not wanting to start, you know, clocks and blah blah blah, 502 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: but I think he's going to. I think Lawler has 503 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: got a decent shot to break camp next year as 504 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 1: a starting shortstop. So just click it up now. So 505 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: that's that's my take on it. I believe it's gonna happen. 506 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: And if I had the ability to like go premptively 507 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: make a move, so I'd stash him over the next 508 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 1: week if you're in the playoffs, and if you even 509 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: have the freaking ability to do that, because limited moves. 510 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 1: Limited moves are frustrating in fantasy at this point, Bubba. 511 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 1: But also at the same time, there's those monsters that 512 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 1: would just you. 513 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 3: Know, rather necessary un necessary evil. 514 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good way to say it. The other 515 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: this little rookie lookie here, the Baltimore Orioles promoted Jackson 516 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: Holiday to Triple A. He went one for four with 517 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: a walk in a double in his Triple A debut 518 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: and I believe within the next week we're going to 519 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: hear that he's going to the arison A fall league. 520 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: So without him being at the majors. Yeah, oh, we 521 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: gotta hope. So we only got a couple of questions here, 522 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 1: So let's answer a couple real quick. 523 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 3: For whatever you guys. 524 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 1: Got, Michael said, Josh Naylor or Jordan Walker rest of season. 525 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 3: I go Walker. 526 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 2: I'm a huge Naylor fan, but I'll take the hot 527 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 2: back for the final few weeks. 528 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do the same thing. Hot bats right now? 529 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: Are the plays? 530 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 3: Now? 531 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 1: This was Anthony, by the way, he said, please don't 532 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,959 Speaker 1: talk about Walker, held him all season, then dropped him 533 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 1: week and a half ago. 534 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 3: I've been there, done that, my friend, been there, done that. 535 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 1: All too familiar, okay, Richard says Nolan Jones Adam Davar 536 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: large new bar, homer, RBI, stolen base average rest of season. 537 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 2: I'm a Nolan Jones homer, but I got large new 538 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 2: bar on that one. He's been playing pretty darn good. 539 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 2: I'm a huge Nolan Jones fan. 540 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: He just went over five too. 541 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 2: Jones had a double and a stolen base. I think 542 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 2: Monday or to Tuesday. Tuesday yesterday. I like Jones a lot. 543 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: Jones. 544 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 2: It's gonna change my answer because Curland and I talked 545 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 2: about this on mentioned the bubble last night. 546 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 3: Fourteen in the last twenty Rockies games are in Coors. 547 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: Give me Nolan Jones, I'm gonna go. I think I'm 548 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,199 Speaker 1: gonna go with the Nolan Jones. Hell, look at you 549 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,479 Speaker 1: getting Curland. Curlin's kind of a big I can't get 550 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 1: Curling on my show. I asked him earlier this year. 551 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: He's like, Nope, go kick sand and suck rocks. 552 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 2: And I was like, oh, I will give him a 553 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:49,199 Speaker 2: lot of heart. I'll give him a big hard time 554 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 2: about that one. 555 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. 556 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: Oh he's he's big time. So that that that shows 557 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: how good Big Bubba is. If you can get Curlin, 558 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 1: you're you've made it. U Our boy tone says, okay, guys, 559 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 1: I got one for the playoffs today, head to head cats, 560 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 1: shallow rosters, two sps, two rps, one pitcher slot bench 561 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: one today Gavin Williams, Joe, Ryan, Lancelyn Alzole or Romano. Obviously, 562 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,959 Speaker 1: he said he's starting straighter, so you gotta just bench one. 563 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 3: He's been really bad his last like four starts. 564 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: Oh it's Minnesota. Is the matchup today? 565 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 2: Too? 566 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: But you could well, I guess so with the relief 567 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: pitchery he has, so it's not even I don't know 568 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: why he gave us the option of a romano. You 569 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: have to start them, yeah, unless Gavin Williams may be 570 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 1: qualified as an RP in your league. Sometimes that happens 571 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 1: with prospects, but the others wouldn't. So yeah, if you 572 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 1: got to who are the Dodgers playing? Yeah, I guess 573 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 1: I would go. I'll go Gavin Williams too. I don't 574 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: know if I feel great about that. That's why that 575 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: was a good question. Good good job, tone, miss tone. 576 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: All right, Fred said, can we trust Mitch Keller next week? 577 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: Two home starts against Washington and the Yankees? 578 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 3: I would. 579 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 2: He's actually pitched much better where his last like four 580 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 2: or five bit some pitch, mixed changes, looking a little 581 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 2: bit more like the guy always how to start the season. 582 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I my initial i'd have to look here, I'm 583 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: gonna take a little peaky peeker because my initial response 584 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: wants to be Yeah, I like that first start. The 585 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: Yankee start isn't as scary as it used to be. 586 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 1: I know Keller's been a little bit inconsistent. But god, man, 587 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,439 Speaker 1: all these sites, don't you want this? I just want 588 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,159 Speaker 1: my bam bam, bam bam. I can't get them to 589 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 1: go because I want to look at his splits. Okay, 590 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: So in the month of August, he's got a four 591 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 1: to two ERA over five starts, thirty four strikeouts, thirty innings, 592 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: walks have actually been kept out. He's only given up 593 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: two homers. That's the second least. Actually, that's the least 594 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 1: homers he's given up in any given month where he's 595 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: had five or more starts, So that's really impressive. Just 596 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 1: his post all Star numbers have looked bad, but it's 597 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 1: picking back up. And in September, in his one start 598 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,640 Speaker 1: he's been good. Yeah, so that makes me feel better. 599 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 1: So I would go with Mitch Keller as well. And 600 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 1: then finally, Richard said, next year, carry Carpenter, Suzuki or Jake. 601 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 2: Berger place Azuki finishing the year strong. He's got the 602 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 2: best pedigree of the crew. But those are three really 603 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 2: good options. I'd like to have chairs of all of them, 604 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 2: to be honest. 605 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I go with Suzuki. 606 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,679 Speaker 1: Oh, by the way, I was right, tone said Williams. 607 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,439 Speaker 2: Still so I'd rather have Alzle and Romano for save chances. 608 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,640 Speaker 1: Now, if it was a points league, I would go, 609 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,400 Speaker 1: I would I would feel fine with Gavin Williams. But yeah, 610 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 1: the some of those guys a little bit later. 611 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 3: Let me share something with you, Welsh, Okay, I just 612 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 3: want to give this to the masses because it has 613 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 3: not been as good as people think he's been. 614 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 2: And I'm having the loading fun that you had earlier. 615 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,199 Speaker 2: Just click on over his like he only fished one 616 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 2: inning in. 617 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 3: His last start. 618 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 2: I'm not sure what happened there, four and a third 619 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 2: with five runs against the Dodgers, five innings, three runs 620 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 2: against Detroit. The biggest thing for me, like less than 621 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 2: a caper, Like basically caper Ani if you're lucky right now. Yeah, 622 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 2: so I'm just worried about the wearing Terry in Minnesota 623 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 2: swinging it really. 624 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 1: Well, Lucas Gilido just oozing off of Gavin Williams, just 625 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: like just making Morris get him off that team. All right. Injuries, 626 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: we're giving you the extra show today as we usually do. 627 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: Walker Bueller is pitching on Friday to Oklahoma City, likely 628 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: one more rehab start after and then he'll be coming 629 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 1: up and looked pretty good so far. Anthony n don't 630 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 1: shut down for the rest of the season. 631 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 2: Anthony Rizzo, What I say, Yeah, garbage, He's shut down. 632 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, Rizzo. Boxton pulled off, was pulled off of his 633 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: rehab assignment, reaggravated his knee injury. So that has halted everything. 634 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: That's a you know, we shouldn't be shocked, I guess, rinse, repeat, Yeah. 635 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: Carlos Carrasco out for the season after dropping a fifty 636 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: pound dumbbell on his finger. What was he doing? 637 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 2: I was trying, he was working. I had a fifty 638 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 2: pound dumb bell in each hand doing some curls. 639 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 3: I guess. I don't know what Carrasco's doing, But how did. 640 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: He drop it on his fancy's like my kids would do. 641 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 2: They'd be like the thought of his hand, I guess 642 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 2: or something. So he already had surgery. They said the 643 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 2: timelines four to six weeks. Obviously not that much time 644 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 2: in the season. So he's done. But I'm sitting there going, Okay, Carrasco, 645 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 2: older guy, a pitcher, Why doesn't he fifty pound dumbells? 646 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: Like? 647 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 3: Why that made no sense to me at all? 648 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: If he said as toe, I would make I don't 649 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 1: get I don't get this. Tristan McKenzie, Shane Bieber. They're 650 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: pitching in rehab starts Thursday and Friday. So if you've 651 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 1: been holding on and you can make it through this 652 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: week or you know Rodos, you'll get him back and. 653 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 3: Let me get a quick one on that real quick. Yeah, 654 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 3: Deeber will be back soon. 655 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 2: The thing with the Ckinzie, because he was this was 656 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 2: that he was a surprise coming back this early. Francona 657 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 2: came out and said he has to be up to 658 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 2: eighty five pitches before they even think about bringing them 659 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 2: back to Cleveland. So this might just be kind of 660 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 2: get some reps in for next year. So don't go 661 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 2: crazy on McKenzie just yet. 662 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: Well, and also, these guys getting like those one off 663 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 1: starts you know, to end the season doesn't get me 664 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: too excited. Andrew mccutching out for the year with achilles injury, 665 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: Joey Bart to the io with a concussion. 666 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 2: Sorry, I think I typed it in wrong. That's my 667 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 2: about Patrick Bailey, Joey Bart, oh. 668 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 1: Pat Yeah, yeah, there was a note by the way, 669 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: Charley Bart, Yeah he was called up. But yeah, Patrick 670 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: Bailey with the concussion, three up and three down on 671 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: the up. Nolan Gorman, Hey quite almost thirty home run season. 672 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: He hit like twenty five and twenty six. He had 673 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: a two homer day two, going two for five yesterday 674 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: because he had that big struggle in between the season. 675 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 1: Brandon Nimo with a two homer game two for five, 676 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,719 Speaker 1: two homers, scored three runs. And Chris Bassett with a 677 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: great matchup and completely delivered. He went eight and he 678 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: struck out seven on the down. Dane Dunning Bahlah, he 679 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 1: got them things lit four and one third, nine earned 680 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: runs and three homers. He learned from the best though, 681 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: Patrick KORbin, even though I don't think they played together 682 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: four innings, eight earned runs and three homers, it's just 683 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 1: apropos and under Jackson four and one third, gave up 684 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: six earned runs, walked five, So it was the five 685 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: that I wanted to mention. They're actually pedro Vila yesterday 686 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: also walked six. Yet he had a decent start in it, 687 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 1: which I which I thought was a lot. 688 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 3: That was like, what the heck is going on here? 689 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a weird one.

Lindor over eight and a half fantasy points. 703 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 2: You'll get more Mets talk for me later, but I 704 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 2: love the Mets today against the Dawn of the Nets, 705 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 2: and Mookie bets over eight and a half fantasy points 706 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 2: going against Edward Cabrera. So Mookie probably walks at least twice, 707 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 2: steals a bag, just things like that. 708 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's well, and that's why I like those fantasy 709 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: points because if he does walk and it doesn't screw 710 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 1: you on the hit, run RBI totals or anything like that. 711 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: For the prize picks today, I've got Logan Gilbert Fantasy 712 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 1: Score thirty two and a half over Corbyn Carroll in 713 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: Colorado eight and a half over YEP, and Bobby Witt 714 00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: eight and a half. They're going up against Tuki des Saint. 715 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: Thank you and yes please. On the bet side, I 716 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 1: was telling you I had locked in my bets. Well, 717 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: I locked in what I was going to bet last 718 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: night forgot to lock it in and I got screwed 719 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: a little bit on my top bet, which was Texas 720 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: money line. We got a great duel going on today, 721 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: a pitching matchup Justin Verlander versus Max Scherzer. Awesome matchup 722 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: to watch. It's in Texas. Verlander has just been kind 723 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 1: of struggly on the back half of the year. The 724 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:26,719 Speaker 1: strikeouts haven't quite been there. Sureziers obviously had his moments 725 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: as well. I'm betting on them getting to Verlander a 726 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 1: little bit earlier, so I taking Texas first five money line, 727 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: which is now around like one forty. So if you 728 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: can find a book that has it lower, or you know, 729 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 1: maybe you want to pair it with something or just 730 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: play it straight. I just really liked that Texas money 731 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,479 Speaker 1: line to the first five. I also really like Kansas 732 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: City's team total run through the first five that actually 733 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: moved down, which usually is a bad sign. They went 734 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: from one ten to minus one oh five. I don't care. 735 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 1: Over the last three Kansas City has been scoring over 736 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: four runs per game and they're going up against two 737 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: key to who gets them lit all the time. So 738 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: I mean three runs through the first five through Kansas 739 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: City and that is almost even money. I love that bet. 740 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: And then finally, Arizona and Colorado threw the first five 741 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 1: over total runs four and a half. 742 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 3: It's pretty juiced. 743 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: I might play it up to five and a half, 744 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: which some do, and that I think is close to 745 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: even money. So Arizona Colorado first five total over Kansas 746 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: City team total runs first five, and Texas first five 747 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: money line. Those are my bets. 748 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 3: What do you got, bubbs? 749 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 2: Jason Deminge is over one and a half total bases 750 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 2: at plus one thirty and a great matchup against Detroit. 751 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 2: Brandon Nemo again love the Mets or one and a 752 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 2: half total basis plus one fifteen two homers last night. 753 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 2: I don't think he'll have much of a problem getting 754 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 2: over one and a half we'll see that's gambling. And 755 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 2: then Andrew vaugh over one and a half want to 756 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 2: roll the dice therep just for the plus money at 757 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 2: plus one twenty swinging it really well, really good matchup 758 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 2: there against Jordan Lyles in Kansas City. 759 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the other one I did think about was 760 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 1: the over the total the total runs in the Kansas 761 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: City Chicago game as well. That's another one you can play. 762 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: I actually started to play that, and I was going 763 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,799 Speaker 1: to do the first five total runs, which was I 764 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: was going to play at five and a half at 765 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 1: like plus one ten. But I just love the team 766 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,759 Speaker 1: total runs for Kansas City. But I'm totally down with that. 767 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: And this will of course be like Jordan Lyles no 768 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: hitter through seven now and Tooky tossand strikes out twelve dfs. 769 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 1: We're not playing neither one of those guys. But who 770 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 1: are you playing today? 771 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a rough one that night, six games on 772 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 2: the evening. Pitching's not great. Spencer Strider is expensive, but 773 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 2: obviously it's Spencer Strider. You can go Clark Schmidt versus 774 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 2: Detroit striking out nearly twenty nine percent of the time 775 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 2: vers righty over the past month, if you need to 776 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 2: get real frisky Kyle Gibson, but I prefer not to stacks, 777 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 2: though the hinted at this the entire last five minutes 778 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 2: Mets Versa. Don love it, and then Games stacked the 779 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 2: White Sox and the Royals. Those are my three stacks. 780 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 2: So we've hit on all those and all of our 781 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 2: bets like that A ton I really goingd of values. 782 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 2: Mike Massey's three point three k you got Velaskiz, you 783 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 2: got Olivaris all cheap for the Royals. Ronnie Maurisio is 784 00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 2: still cheap at three point one k against a Dawn, 785 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 2: and then if you want to cheat National going up 786 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 2: against Budo, it'll be the four stuck. I like Jacobu's 787 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 2: second makes Alph He's only two point four K. I 788 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 2: don't love Jacolu, but the value gives you to get 789 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 2: the Strider could be important. 790 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,919 Speaker 1: Listen to Bubba when he speaks. You know the guy 791 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 1: that like wins taut stuff. So if he's talking to 792 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 1: you about DFS, you lizzen, that's my official term for it. 793 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 1: He just wins taut stuff. No destination for Corbyn and 794 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 1: I we took a little time off from our vacationing 795 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 1: during Labor Day weekend, but we'll be back at it 796 00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 1: hopefully for Friday, and hopefully we'll be cashing in off 797 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: of the price picks here for the home run call. 798 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,520 Speaker 1: Speaking of Corbyn, Carrol, we do have the board. Look 799 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:45,759 Speaker 1: at this brute. Blue Harvester hasn't finished this off or 800 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,280 Speaker 1: getting close. We're getting very close. Blue Harvester has fifty 801 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 1: four homers. Number two is jj Tator at forty eight, 802 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: Razor ramone forty seven, so there's a six homer differential. 803 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: Obviously that can change in a week, but they are 804 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,719 Speaker 1: only so many weeks that are left. I am still 805 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 1: on the board. I'm down there at nine, but I've 806 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,879 Speaker 1: only got forty one. It did cross the forty marker, 807 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 1: which was my goal for the season, so I'm very 808 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 1: happy about that. I don't think I'm going to be 809 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 1: able to get up there with Blue Harvesters. So those 810 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 1: are your home run board home run leaders, which you 811 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 1: guys can do if you're over on the premium discord. 812 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: If you're on the discord for Fantasy Pro, so go 813 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: and get a premium account.
