Speaker 1: me Joey p That of course is the Welsh and
Speaker 1: it's you, the Peanuts and the Cracker Jackson. I am
Speaker 1: starting the process of getting up the speed on the
Speaker 1: new prospects that are going to be entering the MLB
Speaker 1: Draft very soon. I'm high on Travis Bozana highlights all
Speaker 1: the Bazana I can handle. Is it Bizana or Bozana
Speaker 1: call the we should call the whole thing off. I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's like the Banzana bananas do that. Joe, I
Speaker 2: thought you were going to say you started the process
Speaker 2: of hating baseball and wanting to want to hate.
Speaker 1: It's just it's this is that time where I'm doing
Speaker 1: football drafts and football shows and baseball shows and my
Speaker 1: brain starts to melt, and you know, we want to
Speaker 1: try to keep there's much of it in there, there's
Speaker 1: very little that's useful to begin with. I thine we'll
Speaker 1: watch the show.
Speaker 2: Know that already something that's very rejuvenating can be All
Speaker 2: Star weekend when you watch the Futures game and you
Speaker 2: get to see the next big guys, which is going
Speaker 2: to be this weekend the MLB Draft, which is this Sunday,
Speaker 2: seven pm Eastern. Follow my Twitter probably doing some stuff there.
Speaker 2: I've already started the process of putting together. I've got
Speaker 2: top twenty five. I've actually up to like in the thirties,
Speaker 2: but by this weekend, I'll have the top fifty amateur rank.
Speaker 2: So first year player guys from this draft already ranked out.
Speaker 2: But it is very top heavy, and it kind of
Speaker 2: starts and it doesn't end with Travis Bazana, but it
Speaker 2: starts with Travis pasign It's a few other big names.
Speaker 1: I watched the Charlie Condon guy, and color me unimpressed
Speaker 1: with Charlie Condon. I'm not he he looks like Chris
Speaker 1: Bryant two point zero and I was never a big
Speaker 1: Chris Bryant guy. I think he's a little tall, lanky.
Speaker 1: I get why they like him, but I don't see it. Bizana,
Speaker 1: on the other hand, that I see. I get that,
Speaker 1: but we're gonna having so recap all that stuff next
Speaker 1: week for you guys. So remember no live shows next
Speaker 1: week On Monday and Tuesday Wednesday, we're gonna have a
Speaker 1: little bit of specials running here. We're gonna take a
Speaker 1: little bit of a blow, right, rejuvenate the joeyp a
Speaker 1: little bit for the for the stretch run, and then
Speaker 1: we are going to be back live next Thursday. So
Speaker 1: that's that's gonna be a good time. But we're still
Speaker 1: live all week. Welsh is gonna be out get a
Speaker 1: little uh, you're gotta blow this week right Thursday.
Speaker 2: Friday, I hope. So I'm going up north to called
Speaker 2: Flagstaff up here, up north to get escaping one hundred
Speaker 2: and fifteen to get to like on the eighty five, Yeah,
Speaker 2: like eighty five in the woods. So yeah, no, I'll
Speaker 2: be going five in the woods.
Speaker 1: Are you doing that?
Speaker 2: You know what? It's going to be in the seventh
Speaker 2: I think it might rain a little bit, thank god,
Speaker 2: so just any weather change. But yes, I will be
Speaker 2: out there. And tomorrow we have the little Mini Fantasy
Speaker 2: Pros meetup happening out here. We're going I'm going to
Speaker 2: be at the Braves game tomorrow and we got some
Speaker 2: of our fantasy pros employees that are gonna be out.
Speaker 1: While tell the gang, I said, hello, I got a
Speaker 1: lot of euro and Copa to watch too, watching a
Speaker 1: lot of soccer, but you're here for baseball. So let's
Speaker 1: talk baseball here, and let's start with Wyatt Langford to
Speaker 1: run homer yesterday a double the Rangers beat up on
Speaker 1: the Angels nine to four. Just for some context here,
Speaker 1: Langford is hitting three sixty six before home run, seven doubles,
Speaker 1: eighteen RBIs in his last nineteen games. His ops Welsh
Speaker 1: has risen from six to twelve to seven point fifty
Speaker 1: over that period of time. At Dolas Garcia, by the way,
Speaker 1: also dropped to fifth in the lineup, with Langford taking
Speaker 1: over in the cleanup spot. How you doing, oh Welsh.
Speaker 1: You know, I had a lot of bad beats in
Speaker 1: the beginning of this future season because I had a
Speaker 1: lot of Spencer Strider shares for some cy Young stuff
Speaker 1: and a couple Parlay things. I thought we're gonna hit.
Speaker 1: Julio Rodriguez obviously not hitting this year. This could make
Speaker 1: it all back for me and I'm very excited about
Speaker 1: what why Langford's.
Speaker 2: Doing me too. I have my preseason bet on him,
Speaker 2: So like I'm invested, I wasn't as hardcore you get.
Speaker 2: You're getting a lot of thanks you have been in
Speaker 2: the chats and stuff. I have not been as hardcore
Speaker 2: about you have to go and bet Langford. But I
Speaker 2: was already invested in Langford preseason. So I'm excited about
Speaker 2: this bounce back. Just hit three hundred in the month
Speaker 2: of June. He's hitting over three hundred again in July,
Speaker 2: and I think, I mean that those are like absolute
Speaker 2: key points that he's had a complete bounce back for
Speaker 2: a nice big second half. He's also hitting both sides
Speaker 2: of the plate really well. Two ninety one against lefties, oh,
Speaker 2: just about two seventy against Righty's power distribution is relatively even.
Speaker 2: The overall metrics haven't caught into like this is an
Speaker 2: abundantly extreme, like you know, high end percentile player, but
Speaker 2: he has gotten to his gotten to at least league average.
Speaker 2: At every single point, Beryl is moving up hard hits
Speaker 2: moving up, but he's under twenty percent k rate. I
Speaker 2: think he's gonna walk away with it at this point.
Speaker 2: I really do. I think Langford He'll just had a
Speaker 2: fantastic start over the weeks that's great. But if Langford
Speaker 2: keeps at this pace, he's gonna get it. And that's
Speaker 2: the big that's the tough thing here with hitters versus pitchers.
Speaker 2: Paul Skeene's just moving it real quick to there. Paul
Speaker 2: Skeen's is gonna be the the difference maker where usually
Speaker 2: if you have like two similar guys, the hitter's gonna
Speaker 2: win over the picture. We saw that happen with the
Speaker 2: Braves a year a couple of years ago, Michael Harris
Speaker 2: beat Spencer Strider. But Skeenes is the one where he's
Speaker 2: such a polarizing figure. If he keeps up his pace,
Speaker 2: doesn't matter what Churio and Jackson Merrill do, like, no
Speaker 2: one's gonna be able to take that. But over here
Speaker 2: in the al Luis Heal, I think at this point,
Speaker 2: if these guys both finish out, if he'll just keeps
Speaker 2: going strong and Langford goes strong, Langford will take that award.
Speaker 2: And as we've been saying, he's been a great buy.
Speaker 1: Langford plus one thirty five, he's not the leader on
Speaker 1: the board for that award. How you doing twenty three
Speaker 1: weeks ago now plus one thirty five the leader three weeks.
Speaker 1: That's all it took. And we have a blueprint. It
Speaker 1: was the Gunner Henderson blueprint of last year. It was
Speaker 1: staring us in the face. By the way, I think
Speaker 1: Vegas in the chat here needs it. Maybe hungover. Langford
Speaker 1: isn't winning work in the year.
Speaker 3: L O L.
Speaker 1: Meller schemes will win Rookie of the Year. Hey, keet
Speaker 1: to Vegas. Those guys play in the National League, White
Speaker 1: Langer plays in the AL. There's two awards. Whoops l
Speaker 1: O L. Don't lo ol me. I will call you out.
Speaker 2: L O L is a very defensive thing. By the well,
Speaker 2: when someone l O L, it's like, oh, you're being snarky.
Speaker 2: But I read a lot into texts, so don't lo
Speaker 2: ol me. Yeah, and they're sticking to it. Rookie of
Speaker 2: the Year is both divisions. First of all, they're leagues.
Speaker 2: It's the divisions within the leagues. Vegas, You're not. You're
Speaker 2: digging yourself a bigger hole here.
Speaker 1: Buddy. Listen, Powell, you know, take take a maybe get
Speaker 1: like a Logan Paul Prime Energy drinks. You get kind
Speaker 1: of ramped up again. I don't know, but just just relax, buddy,
Speaker 1: take a deep breath. Just you know you are you
Speaker 1: a LOL guy or a haha or like an emoji
Speaker 1: face guy when you reply to something.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean nothing. You and I talk all the time.
Speaker 2: I actually go between them, but open up.
Speaker 1: I want to open behind the curtain for everybody else.
Speaker 1: Here's not you know, I am not an LOL guy.
Speaker 1: I'm more of an emoji laugh guy or a ha
Speaker 1: ha ha guy.
Speaker 2: Okay, so here, I actually have two distinctive versions of this.
Speaker 2: Ha ha is me acknowledging something funny, like you say
Speaker 2: something and I'm like, I'm I'm l olling actually, but
Speaker 2: I'm hahahi. Lol is actually more of like a punctuation
Speaker 2: on something where it's like, you know, look at this
Speaker 2: ridiculous thing. Can you believe this guy said this?
Speaker 1: Lol?
Speaker 2: Like like I use lol as a punctuation. So I
Speaker 2: have very distinctive versions of them.
Speaker 1: All right. We made money on Eli other Cruz yesterday.
Speaker 1: That was a good one. He did a run, but
Speaker 1: he did hit both props I wanted and two for
Speaker 1: three I'll walk a double two runs so we got
Speaker 1: the total basis check, drove in a run, also stole
Speaker 1: two bases. Check. We got the one stone base Oneo
Speaker 1: Cruz not done by another cruise to run Homer of
Speaker 1: his own against the Mets on Monday, Chris Paddock off
Speaker 1: the il two runs, five innings, no decision. Again, be
Speaker 1: very careful with him. Those splits are horrendous. And then
Speaker 1: the Braves really kind of screwed us last night because
Speaker 1: they moved Chrissale right after the show to Tuesday so
Speaker 1: they could squeeze in another start for him. I guess
Speaker 1: on Sunday that's what they're trying. I don't know what
Speaker 1: the hell they're doing, but I'm annoyed because you know,
Speaker 1: I want to Chrisale yesterday. Now I'm getting Rissale today. Whatever.
Speaker 1: A little annoying, but so be it. But nothing is
Speaker 1: wrong with Crissale's That's the big thing we want to
Speaker 1: get across here. So if you're panicking, don't. Everything is okay.
Speaker 2: But he probably now is or not. Probably I would
Speaker 2: assume he is out of starting the All Star Game,
Speaker 2: and that I think he deserved to be the starter,
Speaker 2: which actually opens up maybe Paul Skens, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean, I know Keen Vegas would probably say, wouldn't
Speaker 2: Corbyn Burns start the All Star Game for the NL. No,
Speaker 2: it's al But I'm just saying, like I think Paul
Speaker 2: Skens might be a guy that could now start that
Speaker 2: because we're not gonna see Chris Saale, which is disappointing. Joe,
Speaker 2: Can I ask you, I want to bring up something
Speaker 2: that's not on the show sheet here and a couple
Speaker 2: of people brought it up in the chat, if you
Speaker 2: would forgive me for one moment for being a little
Speaker 2: bit of a homer. But I do think it's important
Speaker 2: in the fantasy world because you could see Wonky talking
Speaker 2: about it, but I don't see on here, And forgive
Speaker 2: me unless I scouring through the sheet missed it. But
Speaker 2: can we talk about what happened with the Diamondbacks yesterday?
Speaker 1: Sure? W is yours? I mean, I think two pieces.
Speaker 1: I do have a Shelby Miller note, that's.
Speaker 2: That's not who we're talking. It's not gonna talk about
Speaker 2: Shelby Miller.
Speaker 1: Well, I was gonna say I wanted to harken back,
Speaker 1: and I was gonna say it was member Barry's. I
Speaker 1: was gonna say, remember Shelby Miller, remember that that was fun?
Speaker 1: Like that doesn't really count as a Diamondbacks note, So
Speaker 1: go ahead, what do you got. Well, first off, well,
Speaker 1: blowing a million saves.
Speaker 2: You want to talk about that, well, that's one of
Speaker 2: the pieces. But at first I wanted to mention Ylbert Diez.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I assume most of you guys,
Speaker 2: especially like you East Coasters, were not dialed into that start.
Speaker 2: But Yelbert Diez, who was in like I think hi
Speaker 2: Al last year double A this year, put on a
Speaker 2: pretty great show, hitting ninety eight on the fastball, sitting
Speaker 2: ninety six. I'm gonna give you the stats here on him,
Speaker 2: twenty nine percent CSW, twenty four percent with rate. He
Speaker 2: was fastball slider with some knuckle curve. That's that curve.
Speaker 2: I mentioned yesterday that he throws really great pitch and
Speaker 2: he's staying in the rotation, and I think this is key.
Speaker 2: I'm not saying that Ilber Diaz is a must pick
Speaker 2: up and a must start, but I'm gonna be paying
Speaker 2: attention to where those starts are because he looked phenomenal,
Speaker 2: really good command. The fastball popped and he didn't even
Speaker 2: unleash the curve ball. I think Gilbert Diaz is someone
Speaker 2: in deeper leagues you should pick up and you can
Speaker 2: look to stream. But the other thing is Paul Sewald
Speaker 2: is a disaster. Three straight blown saves. They said they're
Speaker 2: gonna give it right back to him. This guy looks cooked.
Speaker 2: He is destroying the Diamondbacks games. He's destroying fantasy teams
Speaker 2: right now with these three straight saves. Do you think
Speaker 2: there's a scenario where he is out of that gig?
Speaker 2: Because I know a lot of fantasy owners are getting
Speaker 2: pissed right now. Diamondbacks are still holding to it. I mean,
Speaker 2: one more and he's got to be done. But this
Speaker 2: is also a team that what's the most difficult thing
Speaker 2: to deal with it is bullpen help. But they've got
Speaker 2: Kevin Ginkel and they've got Justin Martinez. I don't know.
Speaker 2: I think we Diamondback fans are furious with Paul Seawald,
Speaker 2: but these blown saves, there's only so much longer we
Speaker 2: can do it.
Speaker 1: I think it's a good chance he is out of
Speaker 1: it because they're kind of fighting for their relevancy here
Speaker 1: in these next couple of weeks. You mentioned it, you know,
Speaker 1: this is kind of like you know where to get
Speaker 1: off the pop moment. And also troubling is that you
Speaker 1: don't look at the show sheet. I just want to
Speaker 1: throw that out there too.
Speaker 2: I scanned it. I scanned it. I didn't see Gilbertez
Speaker 2: though there was no.
Speaker 1: Tirelessly every morning I get up at six thirty, the
Speaker 1: roosters are growing next door, literally because my neighbors have chickens,
Speaker 1: and I'm making the show plans. It's curtful.
Speaker 2: Joe's about to say, I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.
Speaker 1: No, But to your point, look, Seawald pitched well above
Speaker 1: his head last year. I think we could all agree
Speaker 1: and probably for two years when you look at the
Speaker 1: body of work of Seawald. So yeah, I think there's
Speaker 1: a good chance what you're saying is true and they
Speaker 1: are going to move on, which means that if you
Speaker 1: were counting on Seawald for saves, you're gonna have to
Speaker 1: make a change here sooner than later. And yeah, one
Speaker 1: engine the downs today.
Speaker 2: By the way, and I just saw that. I was
Speaker 2: looking for the Yobra thing. One thing to note. The
Speaker 2: Diamondbacks obviously want to keep going for this. They took
Speaker 2: a really important series from the Padres. But Paul Seawald,
Speaker 2: if he's blowing saves, they had to win that game
Speaker 2: last night. They can't keep losing these games. This team
Speaker 2: is willing to be a seller, maybe to small degrees.
Speaker 2: Paul Seawald doesn't have a big contract. I actually think
Speaker 2: Paul Seawald, even if the Diamondbacks are tiptoeing, could be
Speaker 2: a guy that they could move off of just to
Speaker 2: get something and because they've got bullpen help. And if
Speaker 2: they were to do that, I don't think it's guaranteed.
Speaker 2: He could go to a team where he is closing again.
Speaker 2: So not only could Paul Seawald have this risk, he
Speaker 2: might be a guy that could end up losing it
Speaker 2: just by being traded. So you know, you guys can
Speaker 2: move off of Paul Seawald. I would, as I think
Speaker 2: the Diamondbacks should.
Speaker 1: Well, he could just be bullpen help for somebody else,
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but unless you're playing a wholes league, it doesn't help.
Speaker 1: No, No, it's not, it's not. I'm just saying, like,
Speaker 1: but I could see another team going, ah, you know why, yeah,
Speaker 1: give me Seawald back too. Let's get some bullpen depth
Speaker 1: of a ve guy, you know, just kind of yeah, first
Speaker 1: paint of Coatank used.
Speaker 2: To say Yankees should probably love that, But I just
Speaker 2: think he would be traded to. So I just think
Speaker 2: there's a lot of bad stuff that's going on with
Speaker 2: Seawald right now. Best cases, Diamondbacks keep winning and he
Speaker 2: stays a Diamondback, but I think there are two scenarios
Speaker 2: where he stays or traded where he loses some closing spot.
Speaker 1: So, all right, a couple of fun notes here, Shelby
Speaker 1: Miller night they ain't gotta save yesterday against the Guardians.
Speaker 1: I just thought that was fun, Like, as a part
Speaker 1: of me goes Shelby Miller, Like, that's just a fun
Speaker 1: thing to kind of see in the baseball sphere. What
Speaker 1: was that was? That was the Dansby Swanson Shelby Miller, right,
Speaker 1: that was the trade back of the day.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was u Yeah, because the Upton
Speaker 2: one brought like all the other dudes they brought.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's another Justin Upton. That's another player. I haven't
Speaker 1: thought of him a long time. The Braves selected the
Speaker 1: contract of Eddie Rosario, so there you go, second life
Speaker 1: for Eddie Rosario. And finally Lars Nowbar has come back
Speaker 1: from the ten day il so and goodness also on
Speaker 1: the il working his way back in field. Prospect Junior
Speaker 1: Cam and aro from that quad injury. You mentioned that
Speaker 1: just the other day. Rehab assignment starts today. Well, it's
Speaker 1: becoming a lost season. And I think this is important
Speaker 1: here to talk about Camp and Arrow for a moment
Speaker 1: because I had very high expectations I know you did
Speaker 1: to mine were probably even higher than yours. They have
Speaker 1: obviously been lit on fire and stopped out for twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four. How much of a problem is this though,
Speaker 1: to his development over a year, because you know, in
Speaker 1: those keeper leagues dynasty league formats, we've seen guys like
Speaker 1: Byron Buxton miss significant time in their developmental and it
Speaker 1: really set them back. You've seen this with a lot
Speaker 1: of players over years where it's like, hey, this guy's
Speaker 1: really talented, but you know it kept getting hurt or
Speaker 1: kept having injuries and that lost time and then they
Speaker 1: get forced up to the big leagues maybe before they're ready.
Speaker 1: So do you see any problems with that with Kevin
Speaker 1: Arrow or he's just major league ready and this is
Speaker 1: just kind of a blip on the radar.
Speaker 2: I think I think that I think it's the ladder there.
Speaker 2: I think it's just a little bit of a blip.
Speaker 2: I will say from like a macro perspective, It is
Speaker 2: interesting that the baseball is just different in April. Maybe
Speaker 2: May is the transition, but like March and April, like
Speaker 2: the colder weather, like there's just a different whether it
Speaker 2: is physical baseball or you know, how the ball flies,
Speaker 2: how pitchers are reacting to then the summer month, so
Speaker 2: then you're gonna get a guy that's gonna come in
Speaker 2: and you know, have maybe a chunk of major league
Speaker 2: debut kind of on the back end of the summer.
Speaker 2: What that might look like next year, that just might
Speaker 2: be like a small anecdotal thing, but at the end
Speaker 2: of the day, it is. I mean, we didn't see
Speaker 2: any like physical play regression. We saw physical injuries, but
Speaker 2: you know, his play wasn't like taking this big backslide.
Speaker 2: So no, I think we're okay. It's just it's kind
Speaker 2: of a lost year. I do think what's tough about
Speaker 2: him is he had major league time last year, because
Speaker 2: what I would have said is if he hadn't, they'll
Speaker 2: wait till September, they'll call him up and then they'll
Speaker 2: have his rookie eligibility next season. Since that's already started,
Speaker 2: I'm not sure that they care about that. They want
Speaker 2: to save money in every instance, and they want to
Speaker 2: have extra control over players. But I think as August
Speaker 2: comes in, that's when the clock starts ticking. The Rays
Speaker 2: are not quite out of it, but they're like pretty close.
Speaker 2: But I think we will see Camon Arrow sometime in
Speaker 2: the very early August run back with the major league team.
Speaker 1: Real quick. One more question on the rookie lookie, I've
Speaker 1: been watching some Jack cag leone eh my people. First baseman,
Speaker 1: left handed pitcher from Florida. He's gonna be in the
Speaker 1: draft coming up this weekend. A two way player, impressive
Speaker 1: two way player. Is he gonna be a two way
Speaker 1: player in the major leagues or is this just like nah,
Speaker 1: he's gonna end up being a hitter when all a
Speaker 1: said and done.
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I think it would depend on
Speaker 2: the team. But I'll say this, like the Giants, for instance,
Speaker 2: the Giants were a team that drafted multiple players. Actually,
Speaker 2: I think Caglione kind of compares to Bryce Eldridge, who
Speaker 2: was a two way player who they drafted, but they
Speaker 2: killed their two way play Reggie Crawford and Eldridge. They
Speaker 2: just said pick a spot and Reggie Crawford is now pitcher.
Speaker 2: Eldridge is now a position player.
Speaker 1: I don't they recently remember McKay when he was with
Speaker 1: the Tampa.
Speaker 2: Bay the Ras, the Rays kind of considered that. I
Speaker 2: think a lot of teams have given up. The Giants
Speaker 2: were one, the Rays were kind of one. There's not
Speaker 2: a lot of others that are doing this out there anymore.
Speaker 1: When the experiment has been so wildly successful and it
Speaker 1: saves you a roster spot basically.
Speaker 2: Well, I think, I mean that was like a major
Speaker 2: league ready guy who was at two spots you have.
Speaker 2: I think you have young kids in a developmental state
Speaker 2: that I don't think baseball is prepared or I don't know,
Speaker 2: they don't They don't think the juice is worth the
Speaker 2: squeeze at the end of the day. A Bubba Chandler
Speaker 2: who's a prospect with the Pirates was a two way
Speaker 2: player for a short period of time. They almost do
Speaker 2: it just to like make the guys feel good and
Speaker 2: then say, hey, we got to be a professional and
Speaker 2: go all this to say, Jack cagleone is going to
Speaker 2: be a top five pick this weekend. He has some
Speaker 2: of the biggest, most tremendous power out there. One twenty
Speaker 2: evs and stuff. Yeah, he go if he goes to
Speaker 2: Cincinnati or Colorado is going to be a huge fantasy asset.
Speaker 2: But again, a lot of college guys, I know a
Speaker 2: lot of people don't play Dynasty, be likeugh, this is
Speaker 2: very college heavy draft.
Speaker 1: That's why does everyone who plays Dynasty start off every
Speaker 1: sentence with ugh.
Speaker 2: Well these people that don't play in Dynasty, They're like,
Speaker 2: oh yeah, they don't. All these guys are college. There's like.
Speaker 1: Pick that is such a trope in all of like
Speaker 1: the fantasy sports world to football world, baseball, you know,
Speaker 1: and ever someone stupid automatically the first thing.
Speaker 2: That's how I view them. That's how I het as
Speaker 2: soon as I see the troll. They're like, but it's
Speaker 2: all college guys. And any of these college players we
Speaker 2: now know, you see like Paul Skins, the clock could
Speaker 2: start ticking. I'm not saying Bizana or especially Kaglion, no,
Speaker 2: but they could. They could be up sometime next year
Speaker 2: with that development. The guys that are going into the
Speaker 2: College World Series.
Speaker 1: Chase Like, I look at Kaglion, that's a grown ass
Speaker 1: man right now. Like that guy, I could see grown boy.
Speaker 1: I could see him going straight through like year and
Speaker 1: a half of doll like he a ball in the fall,
Speaker 1: you know, get him up to you know, maybe starting
Speaker 1: a ball next year double A and then if things
Speaker 1: go over well, like go through triple A or even
Speaker 1: just promote him from double A. And Colorado needs some
Speaker 1: help in the worst way. They have nothing going on.
Speaker 1: They are miserable as an organization, right.
Speaker 2: I mean you see you see Ezekiel Tovar is like,
Speaker 2: oh for his last.
Speaker 1: Twe talked about it yesterday, you were here, right, No,
Speaker 1: I just think in the show sheet he also had
Speaker 1: more not fly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh for everything, he's awful right now, he's just overrated.
Speaker 2: I've always said.
Speaker 1: That's all right. Three up and three down. Eloya menez
Speaker 1: a sighting two for four with a walk which he
Speaker 1: walked very slowly. We like to have fun here in
Speaker 1: the show. Andrew Abbott seven shoutout innings, got a w
Speaker 1: there three nothing over the Rockies and then Brandon Nemo
Speaker 1: two for four is fourteenth homer. Look at Brandon Nemo,
Speaker 1: look at you. I feel like I feel like Sam
Speaker 1: Jackson look at the brain on Brad Like, look at
Speaker 1: Brandon Neimo's fourteen homers. Three down Paul s Walld third
Speaker 1: stray blown, save no boy now, James wood oer for
Speaker 1: four struck out two times. Why can't we have nice things?
Speaker 1: Also three down? Speaking of the down, sent down, DJ
Speaker 1: Hurts week a Weekly Scratch sent down to Triple A
Speaker 1: Rochester All injury news. Mike Trout took soft toss and
Speaker 1: he jogged outside before Monday's game. So there you go,
Speaker 1: little soft toss.
Speaker 2: Touch crafts blow job, touch craft the kid. The kids
Speaker 2: would say yeah.
Speaker 1: Speaking of the Angels, they activated Anthony Rendolt from the
Speaker 1: sixty day il. When asked for our comment, Anthony Rendon said,
Speaker 1: they said, how do you feel about being activated? He said,
Speaker 1: what evs? He's like, whatever, It's fine, I'll cokayas cap,
Speaker 1: I want to do more. Whin reach for comments, We
Speaker 1: should do that more.
Speaker 2: We need the pictures of them.
Speaker 1: That yeah, yeah, as ethan to make a graphic for us.
Speaker 1: When reached for comment, Anthony Radon regarding his return to
Speaker 1: the Angels said what else?
Speaker 2: She said?
Speaker 1: He text he chose violence. Tell Marte was back yesterday
Speaker 1: after missing a couple of games with a back. See
Speaker 1: there it's like back stuff. Merrile Kelly Merle through a
Speaker 1: bullpen session today. We'll see how that goes.
Speaker 2: Also, Edwardo and uh Jordan Montgomery all throwing today. I
Speaker 2: just want to point out all the Salt River fields,
Speaker 2: all three pictures.
Speaker 1: Everybody's thrown right. Maybe they'll throw for the big well.
Speaker 1: That that is the thing. If you want Arizona, you
Speaker 1: could look at this and say, hey, if we get
Speaker 1: Montgomery healthy and right, and Eduardo back and Gallon's back,
Speaker 1: now do we have a run in US? I think
Speaker 1: Dells Angeles has to come up, like you have to
Speaker 1: make that. You just have to get that bat in
Speaker 1: the lineup and that and that's what pushed the chips in.
Speaker 2: Here, the ezy Central, the big paper out here. That's
Speaker 2: what they had talked with Mike Caysen, and they said,
Speaker 2: no matter what the Diamondbacks do, it'll be kind of
Speaker 2: like soft buying or soft selling. They're not because because
Speaker 2: they view this is actually very much like what the
Speaker 2: Sons did years and years ago with the draft. They
Speaker 2: didn't draft any guys. They're like, but we got a
Speaker 2: Mario Stademeier back. The same thing here is they're like,
Speaker 2: we don't need to make trades because we're gonna get
Speaker 2: Eduardo and merrill, like, we're gonna get an entire rotation back,
Speaker 2: so any trade would be kind of maybe a bat
Speaker 2: or relief pitcher or if they want to cover themselves,
Speaker 2: move off the sea wall because he's not helping you.
Speaker 2: And you know, just prioritize that and you get your
Speaker 2: whole rotation and you just you give it a go,
Speaker 2: you give it your best. Gos I punched my mic.
Speaker 1: Speaking of giving it as best go. Look goes in
Speaker 1: the doctor Glenn is back in the chat.
Speaker 2: Wow Dad, yay.
Speaker 1: Hi doctor Gleason a lotto me and to Wonky, but
Speaker 1: not to you.
Speaker 2: That's not okay to you know, see in another year.
Speaker 1: Some people do like Welsh best by the way, a
Speaker 1: lot more most people.
Speaker 2: That's probably where.
Speaker 1: Accurate they do. They like the Welsh. I know I
Speaker 1: did cleaning up all the time. They're like, oh Welsh,
Speaker 1: I love you. Uh, I got a question for you,
Speaker 1: and I'd be like, well what about me? You don't
Speaker 1: like me and all.
Speaker 2: It's like the couple prospect people. But you're very well loved.
Speaker 2: I mean, you're not giving yourself like those three draft people.
Speaker 2: Oh Joe, I did uh when you leave when you.
Speaker 1: Say you forgot because the first time you seen your
Speaker 1: family in two years because of COVID. You forgot. You
Speaker 1: don't care about the community. No, I don't get right.
Speaker 2: These are a fun inside jokes we're having, but people
Speaker 2: when you leave in a couple of weeks. Also coming
Speaker 2: off the All Stars, that's true, by.
Speaker 1: The way, folks, that is a true story. Somebody dragged
Speaker 1: me on the internet once. True story and an expert
Speaker 1: quote unquote league whatever that it's like one of these
Speaker 1: giant tournament things because I didn't set my line up
Speaker 1: a print of transactions on a Sunday and it was
Speaker 1: during COVID time. Was the first time I'd seen my
Speaker 1: family in like a year and a half, And yeah,
Speaker 1: I just forgot it happened. Oops. I should have had
Speaker 1: my lead sinct. See that was before I was working
Speaker 1: at Fantasy Pros. We saved everything. We saved everything. The
Speaker 1: whole thing would have been fine. Also, the Phillies are
Speaker 1: saying that Bryce Harper could return as early as today,
Speaker 1: So ice Peel look out for Bryce Harper.
Speaker 2: Possibly. My fantasy lineups will be so excited about this.
Speaker 2: This would be amazing.
Speaker 1: I love Bryce.
Speaker 2: I want to see him back, get back on the
Speaker 2: All Star game too. What do you like?
Speaker 1: Yeah, get him back for the All Star Game. You
Speaker 1: know I love Welsh, but I like to follow up
Speaker 1: a good day of betting with another good day of betting.
Speaker 1: So let's get after it, because today it's time for
Speaker 1: Tuesday's Best Bets of the Day with Joey p and
Speaker 1: the Welsh. Place your bets over at bet three six five,
Speaker 1: bet five bucks, get one hundred and fifty and bonus
Speaker 1: bets when use the promo code leading off only a
Speaker 1: bet three six five. Remember you gotta be eighteen or
Speaker 1: over in Kentucky for any fun at all gambling problem
Speaker 1: called one hundred gambler or one one hundred bets off
Speaker 1: in Iowa. Terms and conditions apply. Welsh. I'm going back
Speaker 1: to the well today to the Cincinnati Reds once again.
Speaker 1: I've logged some Ellie Lacruz bets over on the total
Speaker 1: bases I'm gonna go over again on the stone bases again.
Speaker 1: If it's hot, it's hot. Let's get in there. Colorado stinks.
Speaker 1: Also a big day for Colorado because Nick Lodolo returns.
Speaker 1: So I like Cincinnati on the run line minus one
Speaker 1: and a half at plus one twenty five, No structural issues.
Speaker 1: This was a blister thing. Lodolo should be ready to
Speaker 1: go and rock things out. Hopefully won't be rusty. But again,
Speaker 1: it's Colorado, so it shouldn't matter. So Red's at home
Speaker 1: plus one twenty five at minus one and a half
Speaker 1: on the run line. Also at home on the run line.
Speaker 1: Give me the Houston Astros at even money minus one
Speaker 1: and a half against the lowly Marlins or now Blanco
Speaker 1: on the mound at home. He's been great for them
Speaker 1: this year and last, but not least. You have Bobby
Speaker 1: Miller pitching for the Dodgers today, so I'm gonna look
Speaker 1: for Trey Turner to go over one and a half
Speaker 1: total bases at minus one fifteen. Now I like this
Speaker 1: even more if indeed we get Bryce Harper returning today.
Speaker 1: So fingers crossed, we'll see how that goes. But those
Speaker 1: Welsh are my best bets of the day for Tuesday.
Speaker 1: What do you have for the people?
Speaker 2: Well, I'm gonna joining you. It was a nice three
Speaker 2: and oh day yesterday, so we're gonna try to pick
Speaker 2: it back up. I feel a little bit nervous because
Speaker 2: some of the things I do like I have some
Speaker 2: pairings and parent you just put yourself in a much
Speaker 2: riskier situation. But yesterday the one that it's like a
Speaker 2: pseudo win because I had the first five money line
Speaker 2: two play, one pushed and one to one. I'm going
Speaker 2: back to that well again today and I'm pairing the
Speaker 2: Boston Red Sox. So there are the money line to
Speaker 2: the first five innings. I'm backing Brian Beao over joe
Speaker 2: Yestis and the A's and I'm pairing that with the
Speaker 2: Texas Rangers with Max Scherzer. So both of those are
Speaker 2: first five money lines. Pair those together plus one twenty two,
Speaker 2: so worse like we had yesterday too, maybe one pushes
Speaker 2: and I'm still winning a little bit. Next up, this
Speaker 2: is one I actually took last night. I also took
Speaker 2: a nurfy last night that you guys can't take anymore
Speaker 2: because the odds have moved too much. But I took
Speaker 2: Zach Gallon alternate strikeouts at five plus, Brandon BeO alternate
Speaker 2: strikeouts at five plus against the A's. So I'm pairing
Speaker 2: those two together, and that one was right around minus
Speaker 2: one ten. I know it's not like great plus money,
Speaker 2: but bringing those down a little bit. Zach Gallen didn't
Speaker 2: get a really like bunch of innings in that last start,
Speaker 2: so I'm a little bit dicey about that, but I
Speaker 2: think he's gonna slice and dice early on. So Bayo
Speaker 2: Gallon pair those together five strikeouts plus and then finally
Speaker 2: playing a little bit of risk here, I'm going with
Speaker 2: a Nurphy. It's good odds, but the destination is scary.
Speaker 2: Cincinnati and Colorado. But cal Quantrill been pretty good this year,
Speaker 2: nickoldolo back is tough to hit. Both of these teams.
Speaker 2: Cincinnati is actually are is actually Colorado. They're both have
Speaker 2: been kind of in the upper tier as far as
Speaker 2: no run our runs scored in the first inning. But
Speaker 2: the matchup as far as the pitchers go, makes me
Speaker 2: feel comfortable to take the risk here. So minus one
Speaker 2: fifteen on that those are the best bets. We'll see
Speaker 2: if I can keep up the streak I got going
Speaker 2: on betting pros dot com. Slash our names Welsh or
Speaker 2: Joe if you want to follow and see what else
Speaker 2: we got.
Speaker 1: Welsh was three and oh yesterday, I was three and
Speaker 1: one yesterday. Good times, and make sure you place your
Speaker 1: bets at bet three six five. Those, my friends, are
Speaker 1: the best bets of the day Welsh. Let's take a
Speaker 1: look at the home run board. I did not get
Speaker 1: a home run yesterday, so therefore I am oh, but
Speaker 1: I'm doubling down. I'm going right back to the Ellie
Speaker 1: Dela Cruz. Well, I don't care going right back to it.
Speaker 1: Let's go by the way. Elie Dela Cruz is learning
Speaker 1: Japanese Welsh so he can speak to showy Otani at
Speaker 1: the All Star Game. What a mench first he learns English,
Speaker 1: that he learns Japanese. Ellie Delacruz, he's a man of
Speaker 1: the people. He's a gentleman, he's a scholar. I love
Speaker 1: that guy.
Speaker 2: Face so much fun, maybe faceing baseball, like he legit
Speaker 2: has a shot and he is going to be in
Speaker 2: a couple of years. Like I'm incredibly impressed with him,
Speaker 2: all of the little picky stuff aside that we have
Speaker 2: where it's like, oh, he strikes out and goes to
Speaker 2: the risks and stuff. Like he's beloved. People outside of
Speaker 2: baseball love watching him. He's gonna steal like eighty plus
Speaker 2: bases this year. I'm into these players that can transcend baseball.
Speaker 2: They make baseball. Ellie makes baseball better. And like he's
Speaker 2: lovable too, He's got great energy, he's he's a man
Speaker 2: of the people. There's not a lot to not like
Speaker 2: about Ellie day La Cruz and he may. He's making
Speaker 2: me have like, literally the smartest preseason bet of all time.
Speaker 2: I'm betting pros with my stolen base leading the league
Speaker 2: in stolen base bet.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's gonna be pretty good. Just stay healthy, baby,
Speaker 1: Just love you. I see people picking the intos for
Speaker 1: home runs. I see another person going to Ellie too.
Speaker 1: I see Angelo in there. Where are you going for
Speaker 1: your home run call today? Oh?
Speaker 2: Did you announcers? Did you say?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I said, I'm going with Ellie. That's the whole conversation.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the whole Elle all right. Sorry, sorry, You're like,
Speaker 2: there's just a lot going on.
Speaker 1: I get to stress. You've got a lot going on.
Speaker 1: I got a I got two football shows after this.
Speaker 2: Well I didn't say, Joe, you don't have a lot
Speaker 2: going on.
Speaker 1: The sleeping bags in the car, everybody, come on, I
Speaker 1: gotta get you know, Welsh's got the firewood, he's getting
Speaker 1: his act. Do you like you like shirtless? Like chopping
Speaker 1: wood in the in the in the me flag staff
Speaker 1: when you go up there? Is that what you do?
Speaker 2: Shirtless?
Speaker 1: No shitless chopping Welsh.
Speaker 2: No, you have to blurs on me to be in
Speaker 2: public for that. I'm not gonna do that. Everything jiggling everywhere. No,
Speaker 2: we're good. We're good on anything shirtless, nothing shirtless ever,
Speaker 2: barely wear it in the shower. Today. I am gonna
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go back to my Gunner. Well, Gunner always
Speaker 2: does me good. So we're gonna we're gonna jump back
Speaker 2: into the Gunner Hnderson home run place. I will say,
Speaker 2: Lee brought up, where's the Welsh wheel? I got a
Speaker 2: Homer yesterday, I got Austin Riley. I have absolutely no
Speaker 2: idea where I'm at nineteen twenty. I don't know. Maybe Fred,
Speaker 2: you gotta be close.
Speaker 1: Here's my dream is that I fall off that board
Speaker 1: on August first, and you fall right in front of it, and.
Speaker 2: You oh, and I jump into it.
Speaker 1: So there's jump into it, you coast and you're the villain.
Speaker 1: You pick up being the villain for me, although in
Speaker 1: perpetuity I can do that. Who knows who I might take?
Speaker 1: And you never know how that's gonna go.
Speaker 2: Oh, I wonder who you'll take when you're gone for
Speaker 2: the rest of the season. Will it be Judge or Otani?
Speaker 2: There's no chance in not one of those too. You
Speaker 2: never know, Harper, I know we should do on your
Speaker 2: last show, which by the way, everybody, uh well, they'll
Speaker 2: tell it later. I have a fun thing, but no,
Speaker 2: on the last show for you, we should do a
Speaker 2: Joe wheel and we should put your see your rest
Speaker 2: of season pick, and then you spin the wheel and
Speaker 2: that's the guy that you go with for the rest
Speaker 2: of the year.
Speaker 1: It probably should be like the wheel of all the
Speaker 1: guys I've picked over and over again, like and just
Speaker 1: for fun a Tani, Judge, Ellie's been on there a bunch,
Speaker 1: Harper's been on there a bunch, trying to think who
Speaker 1: else was in that grouping too, and then you well
Speaker 1: a couple of times trying to break him out. Alvarez
Speaker 1: I had a couple of home run I also had
Speaker 1: Harper there the three home run night, which was pretty spectacic.
Speaker 2: And then just put like I'll put like one random
Speaker 2: guy put that was the.
Speaker 1: Run of all time. It was the Harper three home runs,
Speaker 1: and then the next night the Alvarez back to backs,
Speaker 1: which that was five home runs, in two days. That'll
Speaker 1: do it for you. I need one of those days, Ellie,
Speaker 1: if you're listening, let's go, let's let's figure it out here.
Speaker 1: That'll do it for us. But the story of the
Speaker 1: game goes on for the Welsh. I'm Joey P. We'll
Speaker 1: see you tomorrow. Kids. Enjoy your baseball.
