Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody in a fantasy pros MLB.
Speaker 2: This is Leading Off Live, brought you by Bet three
Speaker 2: six five Bet five bucks get one hundred and fifteen
Speaker 2: bonus bets when use the promo code leading off at
Speaker 2: Bet three six five. It is me Joey p That
Speaker 2: of course is the Welsh, and it's you, the Peanuts,
Speaker 2: the Cracker Jacks. Everyone's here hanging out in the chat.
Speaker 2: Let's start with a question right off the bat here
Speaker 2: because somebody is a subscriber to the channel, somebody's watching
Speaker 2: Welsh's videos.
Speaker 1: Here we go.
Speaker 3: Lyndon Howe says, probably not going to make the show
Speaker 3: live today. Gentlemen, Lyndon Howe is a busy things. It's
Speaker 3: a yachting season in June. But wanted to say that
Speaker 3: I traded Gunner and Pascorentino and I received in condition
Speaker 3: Josh Naela, Michael Garcia, Alex Bregman and Cole Reagan strictly
Speaker 3: because of Welsh's buy video.
Speaker 2: How did Lyndon Howe do in this deal? I know
Speaker 2: Gunner is probably the best guy in this deal, but
Speaker 2: it seems like backing up the trucker.
Speaker 4: I mean that listening to my video is The only
Speaker 4: thing I would have never said is ever trade Gunner Henderson.
Speaker 4: So I think to the other side of it, maybe
Speaker 4: there's a little bit of waivers in there too. Josh
Speaker 4: Naylor huge buy for me. Colet Reagan's been a huge vibe.
Speaker 4: Talked about MIKEL. Garcia. MIKEL. Garcia's underlying profile is so good.
Speaker 1: But I don't I don't know, man, you're getting Garcia?
Speaker 4: It was my number one.
Speaker 2: By I understand what if your what if your situation
Speaker 2: is like, I mean, you need bodies here and you
Speaker 2: know Josh Nandler, Garcia, Bregman, Cole Reagans. You got a picture,
Speaker 2: you got three guys to put directly in your lineup
Speaker 2: of starters Hunters is really good. But if the rest
Speaker 2: of your team is, you know, really hurting, I think
Speaker 2: you did pretty well. More like Lindon, how'd you pull
Speaker 2: this off?
Speaker 1: Because his last name is how.
Speaker 4: It's no funny. Bregman isn't my favorite here, but that
Speaker 4: is like, heyman, the last two weeks has been rock
Speaker 4: solid that you just put in, not pretend.
Speaker 2: Uh. Speaking of rock solid things, I'm gonna make this transition.
Speaker 2: Wan Soto has been a rock for the New York
Speaker 2: Yankees this year. And we've got to start here at
Speaker 2: the top of the show with the Wan Soto stuff
Speaker 2: because there was a rain delay, guess right, and Wan
Speaker 2: Soto did not come back out, so Wan Soto uh oh,
Speaker 2: apparently having some forearm tightness.
Speaker 1: And I watched the postgame interview this morning.
Speaker 2: I wanted to catch up because I was at the
Speaker 2: concert last night, and the the questions were, you know, basically,
Speaker 2: how was your forearm doing when is it?
Speaker 1: You know, are you in pain? And he was basically say, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just it's just.
Speaker 2: You know, basically in pain. So I mean that's not good.
Speaker 2: So it's not just when he throws, it's not when
Speaker 2: he hits. It's basically a discomfort all the time.
Speaker 4: It's like the Devers thing all over again. It was
Speaker 4: just like he's like, oh, yeah, it's been going on
Speaker 4: for a while because the forearm paint. He's been doing it,
Speaker 4: dealing with it weeks and we're just like, what someone
Speaker 4: tell us about this stuff? Why did we know about this?
Speaker 4: Happened with Devers, now it happens with Sodo. This is brutal, Joe.
Speaker 4: This is brutal because he's been dealing with this and
Speaker 4: then just getting in and then now it's come to
Speaker 4: a head. I don't feel optimistic for this season. But
Speaker 4: you also opened up this is off air, You're just like,
Speaker 4: how are we feeling? I'm like, dude, we can't lose
Speaker 4: a Kunya not have Soto, have a shell of corbing, Carol,
Speaker 4: have a half of a version of Julio Rodriguez. We
Speaker 4: can't be held up by Otani and two out of
Speaker 4: the four weeks in the month Elie de la Cruz.
Speaker 4: We can't do that.
Speaker 1: No, it would be a giant letdown, that's for sure.
Speaker 2: But look, the I know people are talking about Jason
Speaker 2: do Minge is already I don't know if that's really
Speaker 2: necessarily the viable option they.
Speaker 4: Pick up. Now. If if you if he exists on
Speaker 4: a wire and a league that you play in, you
Speaker 4: probably should have considered. In the Stash world, I guess
Speaker 4: I don't really talk about him because he's not like,
Speaker 4: you know, the prospect that hasn't made it up or
Speaker 4: anything like that. But if you want to talk about
Speaker 4: the Stash world, do you want to guess Roster percent
Speaker 4: poured some cold water on it? Well, hold on, yeah,
Speaker 4: I'm going to give them in a guess. But if
Speaker 4: if you want to pull cold water on the idea
Speaker 4: or they poured cold water on the idea of him
Speaker 4: coming up before this now speaks even more. If he
Speaker 4: were to go to the ale, it has to be
Speaker 4: Domingos because he's played so great in the miners. I'm
Speaker 4: gonna guess roster percentage it's still pretty high.
Speaker 1: What what do you mean CBS where people actually are paying attention.
Speaker 4: Oh, that's gonna be like seventy fifty nine. I mean
Speaker 4: that's almost like free in CBS terms. That means and
Speaker 4: you know how you translate that, that's probably forty four
Speaker 4: percent in Yahoo and Angelo.
Speaker 1: Here Jason owned in ESPN, So there you go.
Speaker 4: No, you should pick you should pick up Jason Domingus
Speaker 4: right now, pause the show because don't like skip it.
Speaker 4: Pick him up just in case if the iel happens.
Speaker 4: We've been speculating how Jason Domingos could fit in right now.
Speaker 4: I mean, Alex Radugo makes that amazing catch yesterday and
Speaker 4: you're reminded like, oh, yeah, he's not going to be
Speaker 4: at the expense. But if there is an eyel stint
Speaker 4: going on, he's also just told you Hey, I've been
Speaker 4: dealing with this for weeks. Cod pick up Jason Domingez
Speaker 4: even at of pure speculation, But if he goes on
Speaker 4: the IEL, Dimingus is coming up by.
Speaker 2: Noelv Marte also starting to work his way back. So
Speaker 2: that's another bat off the waiver wire that I think
Speaker 2: would be very useful.
Speaker 1: But look, this is enormous grounds for concern.
Speaker 2: This is losing the American League MVP right now the
Speaker 2: first few months of the season arguably, and I would
Speaker 2: he's going for imaging today, so when we come back
Speaker 2: here on Monday, we should have some sort of idea.
Speaker 2: I'd be shocked if he didn't go to the IL.
Speaker 2: I mean from the I mean be absolutely shocked.
Speaker 4: I don't think it needs to be Yeah, I don't
Speaker 4: think it needs to be devastating or a season long,
Speaker 4: or really even more than two weeks because he does this, but.
Speaker 2: It does if the imaging shows up that it's a
Speaker 2: torn new I's going to be gone.
Speaker 4: I agree. I'm just saying from like like freaking out
Speaker 4: standpoint here, he's been dealing with it for weeks. They
Speaker 4: go in, I don't care what that thing says. You
Speaker 4: probably put him on the IL. But it could just
Speaker 4: be two weeks, so you don't have this big, major
Speaker 4: freak out. But we should be conditioned here that this
Speaker 4: season's a disaster. We should expect the worst, and then
Speaker 4: I guess plan.
Speaker 2: Here's a question too, speaking of worse, what do you
Speaker 2: do about you know, right now, your free agent next year?
Speaker 1: You know what happens here? I mean, this seems like
Speaker 1: he just.
Speaker 4: Loads his I mean, he just gingerly loads his big
Speaker 4: truck back up.
Speaker 2: Oh but here's here's the thing. I mean, let's say
Speaker 2: it is the worst case. Let's say it's a UCL
Speaker 2: issue or something like that. It's a little different for
Speaker 2: a position player. Obviously, we saw Bryce Harper come back
Speaker 2: relatively soon from it, sooner than people anticipated.
Speaker 1: I imagine Soda would do the same.
Speaker 2: But we all remember it was a tough slog there
Speaker 2: for Harper who did come back early from it. So
Speaker 2: if you're gonna invest hundreds of millions of dollars in Sodo,
Speaker 2: you're not gonna have him for the first couple months
Speaker 2: last season next season.
Speaker 1: Like, I just think that's I think that would be realistic.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Let's say let's say he has the imaging done Let's
Speaker 2: say it's a bad thing. Let's say you know, by
Speaker 2: July he has the surgery, you want to give him
Speaker 2: nine months. I mean it's cutting it real close there,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 4: Well, I think, by the way, every time I hear
Speaker 4: you say imaging, for some reason, I think of those
Speaker 4: people that are named imaging. If you're sending those people
Speaker 4: like imaging, that's such a.
Speaker 2: Weird ruth esther imaging you guys image.
Speaker 4: I don't know one imaging in the planet is Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a Shakespeare character too, if you want
Speaker 1: to get real high falutin.
Speaker 4: But yeah, okay, But I think we've already figured out
Speaker 4: that Akunya is going to come back at like November,
Speaker 4: or he can start back into activities into November. I
Speaker 4: don't think this. I don't think this is any impact
Speaker 4: on where he goes, the money that he makes. And
Speaker 4: if there is that type of worry, his team is
Speaker 4: going to shut that down instantly. I think everyone's going
Speaker 4: to play it safe, from his own camp to the Yankees.
Speaker 4: If he's been dealing with this and it's just even
Speaker 4: more enough to take him out, I'm a little iel stint,
Speaker 4: say Jason Diminga's up don't know how long he stays,
Speaker 4: but diminga should be the option.
Speaker 2: I would prepare for the people that are whips. Wants
Speaker 2: to know how Chris Stapleton was. Christ Apleton was terrific.
Speaker 2: You know, he's not the big interacting guy with the crowd,
Speaker 2: you know, like he's not like a Dave Groll or
Speaker 2: a Pink or somebody that's like the ultimate entertainer. He's
Speaker 2: an amazing singer, amazing songs, was terrific, great guitar player.
Speaker 2: He had the guitar player from Tom Brady and the
Speaker 2: Heartbreakers show up there too, and he played skinnerd He
Speaker 2: played free Bird, which was super cool. If you want
Speaker 2: to hear anybody play Skinnard, it's definitely Chris Stapleton. Also
Speaker 2: Marcus King bad, amazing opener. The venue itself awful. Don't
Speaker 2: go to the Camden Riverfront Pavilion whatever the hell it's.
Speaker 1: Called the Freedom Pavilion.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the only thing that was free of an hour
Speaker 2: an hour. I lost an hour of my life trying
Speaker 2: to get from a mile and a half from where
Speaker 2: you enter the area into where the parking area is
Speaker 2: and hour it almost took us the same amount of
Speaker 2: time to get there from where I live. Then it
Speaker 2: did to actually get a mile and a half into
Speaker 2: the parking area. It was a disaster. And I'm not exaggerating.
Speaker 2: Did you know that exaggerated? I'm not egraduating here anything.
Speaker 2: Welcome everybody.
Speaker 1: The high heat. This is craziness.
Speaker 2: I went to the venue and I can't believe it.
Speaker 2: I sat there for an hour and fifteen minutes. It
Speaker 2: took me to fifty minutes to get there. Three hours
Speaker 2: though mouth welsh. I mean, come on, I mean I
Speaker 2: want to see Chris Stable will be That's ridiculous.
Speaker 4: It's an A plus impression. I went to David Busters
Speaker 4: last night for a party thing. Did you know there
Speaker 4: was a concert that happened?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry? Where was there a concert?
Speaker 4: Did you know that Busters last night? At the concert?
Speaker 4: Because yeah, because me and one of the friends got
Speaker 4: on the guitar hero and we busted out some b
Speaker 4: What is it on Reaching against the Machine? I'm trying
Speaker 4: to think of what the song was that? Birds on Parade?
Speaker 4: What's the song treat?
Speaker 1: What's the rage?
Speaker 4: I want to hear?
Speaker 1: What I want to hear? You create more of them?
Speaker 1: But Wells isn't tweety now? D it? A tweety Now
Speaker 1: dan it bulls on.
Speaker 2: Why'd you guys help him? I wanted to see what
Speaker 2: else was gonna come out there, bulls. For those of
Speaker 2: you know, the voice impression was, it was Christoph Russo
Speaker 2: from High Heat, Chris Russo from w f a N
Speaker 2: my childhood radio station of my youth.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to more baseball.
Speaker 2: Nick Zalas was on the Waiver Wire video last week
Speaker 2: two for five with a two run homer. He has
Speaker 2: been terrific since getting the call up. Howire Asad by
Speaker 2: the way five runs, five and two thirds. Now, I
Speaker 2: will look it into this because you know the EO
Speaker 2: race of two seven four, the x FIP is at
Speaker 2: three point nine to eight.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: He is not a six inning picture. This is the
Speaker 2: I think you've gotten all you can. You squeezed all
Speaker 2: the juice out. Javey Asad is to talk about like
Speaker 2: a sell high if he can, or put him in
Speaker 2: a package of a deal. I think that winter is
Speaker 2: coming for the twenty six year old to sod.
Speaker 1: What do you think?
Speaker 4: Yeah? I think the Cubs too. This is another one
Speaker 4: of those teams we've been talking about. You want to
Speaker 4: keep pace with everything. I think they're gonna have to
Speaker 4: probably take a long look at their rotation outside of
Speaker 4: Emonaga justin Steele's going today, Let's see how that works.
Speaker 4: A sod Yeah, I mean, I agree, he's got an
Speaker 4: almost run and a half differential between his actual era
Speaker 4: and two point seventy four to an X of three
Speaker 4: nine seven, which is like really really bad so or
Speaker 4: really bad for that, you know, two er type of guy. So,
Speaker 4: I don't know. I do think they would benefit from
Speaker 4: making a move. They have assets, we've talked about. These
Speaker 4: are guys that can make trades. I think the Cubs
Speaker 4: would benefit from looking into trading into the rotation and
Speaker 4: moving a guy like a sod As like the five
Speaker 4: or maybe Slash like maybe Relief like I.
Speaker 2: Love telling you right now that it's coming back around,
Speaker 2: and I forget.
Speaker 1: Russo's actually on es Yah too.
Speaker 2: He's in the mornings on that Stevid a fifth and
Speaker 2: Chrysthiper Ruth out here.
Speaker 3: We're not gonna We're gonna argue I about something for
Speaker 3: fifteen minutes before the commercial break.
Speaker 1: That's what we're gonna do.
Speaker 4: Do you have to get your long hair? You gotta
Speaker 4: get the long hair, doesn't it oh, I guess that
Speaker 4: hair just ends.
Speaker 1: The first to me.
Speaker 2: Uh, Brian Woo six innings, six strikeouts, He's three and
Speaker 2: wo on the year. Jose Ramirez homeward again. In case
Speaker 2: you uh don't listen to the Betting Pros podcast, you
Speaker 2: should because I just did a good fifteen minutes about
Speaker 2: the Future's market update yesterday that should be out there.
Speaker 2: And one of my pitches right now is Jose Ramirez especially,
Speaker 2: and this was before the Sodo News, so the the
Speaker 2: Sodo News still hasn't moved Jose Ramirez. But if the
Speaker 2: worst happens, you know, you gotta look at it and say,
Speaker 2: you know, Judges had Sodo. Judge still has the Yankees
Speaker 2: around him. I mean, Josier Rimra is still the one
Speaker 2: man band. I think it's a and it's like plus
Speaker 2: twenty three hundred. They gotta wit in the MVP market
Speaker 2: for him.
Speaker 4: I kind of like it that. You know, I'm so
Speaker 4: glad you did this because I forgot about this. I
Speaker 4: wanted to talk about this real quick, and then somebody
Speaker 4: tagged me in an Instagram thing saying and I'm so sorry,
Speaker 4: I'm forgetting your name and I don't want to go
Speaker 4: look through Instagram saying, hey, this would be an interesting topic.
Speaker 4: But I saw Trevor May who is over on the
Speaker 4: Athletic Now and Trevor May it actually just might have
Speaker 4: been one of his social media posts, and he said,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna break down what happened with Cleveland because you're
Speaker 4: seeing the Cleveland run numbers go way up. And he
Speaker 4: did this breakdown where he was talking about how apparently
Speaker 4: what they did was they got rid of in right field.
Speaker 4: They kind of essentially got rid of like this like
Speaker 4: wall that was back there, and what it's done is
Speaker 4: it's created a draft and the balls are flying out
Speaker 4: into a far right field because they were like a
Speaker 4: top five ballpark factor I believe last year, and they're
Speaker 4: one of the biggest as far as home runs given
Speaker 4: up now. So you're seeing a lot more especially left
Speaker 4: handed hitters. I think you're going to see even more success.
Speaker 4: Look at Josh Naylor, his batting average had been stinking
Speaker 4: in it. Yeah, maybe it was Brett there, there you go,
Speaker 4: Brett Anderson was the one that did it. Good good
Speaker 4: call Brett. And you're seeing his homers go even when
Speaker 4: he's hitting two thirty. You really might have a little
Speaker 4: bit of an offensive advantage now when looking at Cleveland
Speaker 4: moving forward because of what a lot of people are
Speaker 4: talking about. I first saw from Trevor Maser just wanted
Speaker 4: to give him credit for it that some simple movements
Speaker 4: they did in the outfield has just created this draft
Speaker 4: where it's just it's flying out and that's going to
Speaker 4: benefit a guy like Jose Ramirez. And then obviously offensively,
Speaker 4: maybe you guys can attack left handed hard two or playing.
Speaker 2: Because the chat is making fun, giving you rage against
Speaker 2: the machine lyrics based on birds one. Here's cage against
Speaker 2: the machine, Here's why the name of also very good,
Speaker 2: but this is the best one.
Speaker 4: Which was that's fuck you.
Speaker 2: I won't do what you tell me, flock you, I
Speaker 2: won't do what you tell me.
Speaker 1: For those who justify wearing feathers birds.
Speaker 4: On parade, I tweet it now. Oh, now you know
Speaker 4: what we need to get to AI ais the machine
Speaker 4: as birds.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the weekend project. All of the rushmand Homer
Speaker 2: twice drove in three runs. Another Guy, dark Horse, MVP
Speaker 2: guy keep an eye on him.
Speaker 1: Just for fun.
Speaker 2: Corbyn Carroll went three for five with the double about
Speaker 2: them apples amazing O'neo Cruz on the same day you
Speaker 2: three run Homer, what's going on? Welsh cruise and Carol
Speaker 2: do my eyes deceive me?
Speaker 4: It must be my birthday? That's amazing. That is a
Speaker 4: very Welsh centric day. You know. Corbyn was actually at
Speaker 4: Corman did an interview last night. I still never see
Speaker 4: him talk about a shoulder. But he is in a
Speaker 4: bad spot and he even acknowledged, like it's great that
Speaker 4: the team is doing stuff. Da da da. He's like,
Speaker 4: but I'm not gonna lie. The everything that's going on
Speaker 4: is atrocious and bad and I don't know. He's first
Speaker 4: time over two hundred and god knows how long. So
Speaker 4: good for him, but there is no power to speak of.
Speaker 4: Everybody non stop talks like hey, can Corbyn write the ship?
Speaker 4: Can corbun rate the ship? I think at this point
Speaker 4: it's only a version of Corbyn can be righted. Can
Speaker 4: you hit for more contact? Yeah? I think so. But
Speaker 4: he's still not stealing at a hyper aggressive rate. The
Speaker 4: power is not gonna happen. I'd be shocked if he
Speaker 4: got to fifteen Homers this year and he's just not
Speaker 4: running at the same pace. It's just a shell of
Speaker 4: what it was. It's a disaster, and I don't know
Speaker 4: how much it will ever bounce back because the swing
Speaker 4: is just it's bad. It's bad. And pictures, every single
Speaker 4: picture received. The book on Corbyn Carroll in the Office.
Speaker 4: It's a best seller, and Corbyn Carroll is he is
Speaker 4: the story and the whole meat of how to attack him,
Speaker 4: and everybody's doing it.
Speaker 1: I'm looking rookies of the Year in the past too.
Speaker 1: You know, you get some interesting names that kind of like, you.
Speaker 2: Know, blew Up had a great Rookie of the Year
Speaker 2: season and then just never lived up to it. Pat
Speaker 2: Listash was the one that came to mind, and then
Speaker 2: it was from Kansas City a couple of years.
Speaker 1: Later, Bob Hamlin Hammer and Bob Hamlin. He was a
Speaker 1: big boy.
Speaker 2: Ben not a recent one, yeahl Lewis Ben Ben Green,
Speaker 2: Oh my god, he did in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1: I've totally forgot.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but that was a year He's not even in
Speaker 4: baseball right now.
Speaker 1: He was on the county. That's a B. That's a
Speaker 1: that's a BS right there.
Speaker 2: But I mean for every hour and judge, there's a
Speaker 2: Michael Fulmer, you know what I mean, Like I I
Speaker 2: wanna say, like, you know, these guys. He just never
Speaker 2: really do it afterwards.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 2: Eddie Rosario, by the way, not in the Nationals lineup yesterday,
Speaker 2: welsh mm hmm.
Speaker 1: I should have. I didn't make the tinfoil highen. He
Speaker 1: was though, even to put the foil hat on, but
Speaker 1: I didn't.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, if everybody saw, like one eighty one,
Speaker 4: he's sitting one eighty one, James wood is getting back.
Speaker 4: But I did see he was like sitting with Davy.
Speaker 4: Don't know, Like my thought is, how can you keep
Speaker 4: having that Eddie Rosario in the lineup? But I don't know.
Speaker 4: He kind of seems like a guy that they're not
Speaker 4: gonna cut. He kind of seems like an old school
Speaker 4: coach favorite type of player. But he's hitting one to
Speaker 4: eighty one. And when you have the best prospect, or
Speaker 4: one of the best prospects in the world in your system,
Speaker 4: let's get James.
Speaker 2: Let's get to the chat here. There's a lot of
Speaker 2: fun stuff happening here. Matt Grade my trade traded Wu
Speaker 2: and Petis for Lindor McMahon.
Speaker 1: Pablo Lopez thoughts a plus plus. I would agree.
Speaker 4: I love getting Lindor. Great time to buy low off
Speaker 4: of Pablo Lopez off.
Speaker 2: This last a curriculum walk rate according to two that's
Speaker 2: kind of interesting.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well he walked a couple of yester day. You
Speaker 4: could have traded. You could have said, I traded Wu
Speaker 4: and Pardus to just got and get Lindor, and I would.
Speaker 2: Have said the big dance headed to uh trash panda
Speaker 2: game tonight. Who's the prospect to wash Welsh or or
Speaker 2: watch not wash them.
Speaker 1: I don't think you want to give a spongebath to
Speaker 1: prospect spongebats.
Speaker 4: I can't even think of. I can't even think of.
Speaker 4: You can trash pan.
Speaker 2: Puppet rage song for twenty five K subscriber. Everyone's ready
Speaker 2: pushing the twenty five k s.
Speaker 1: Up with the puppets. It's gonna be a good time here.
Speaker 4: Well, you guys have a long way to go. I mean,
Speaker 4: you guys got to get a little, you know.
Speaker 1: But uh yeah, I'm a Kyle Lewis. I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: no no.
Speaker 4: I loved the puppets again last night. By the way,
Speaker 4: you just I cannot find.
Speaker 1: A puppet disaster of advertisements.
Speaker 4: I felt, well, I just want an Amazon. There's one.
Speaker 4: There's one puppet. I've been kind of sitting on that
Speaker 4: might work for you. I don't, I know, don't together in.
Speaker 1: A sentence.
Speaker 4: Trying to find the right Puppetee, I was.
Speaker 1: Looking at puppets that I but.
Speaker 2: I was sitting on a few puppets. That's what you said.
Speaker 2: You said some weird stuff in a row. You said
Speaker 2: a lot of weird, a lot of work.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna do. I already gave you birds on Paragio
Speaker 4: no more.
Speaker 2: The worst part is, I'm gonna get in the car
Speaker 2: later and I'm gonna like put on lithium and serious,
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna hear like a rage against the Machine.
Speaker 1: Song and I'm just gonna laugh out loud.
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna the entire talk. Oh goodness, gracious, all right,
Speaker 2: let's get to the rookie. Lookie, this is actually something
Speaker 2: good for a change. Max Meyer apparently is going to
Speaker 2: be coming up again soon. I told you now, I
Speaker 2: don't know what his current situation is in terms of
Speaker 2: ross percent.
Speaker 1: I gotta look.
Speaker 2: I'll look on CBS right now. But this is the
Speaker 2: guy you need to add now. I would guess since
Speaker 2: he got dropped even with even with dynasty leagues and
Speaker 2: things like that going on, I gotta imagine he's maybe
Speaker 2: a best in the thirty five percent range.
Speaker 4: What do you think, Mike Harris?
Speaker 1: Max Meyer?
Speaker 4: Oh, Max Meyer, I'm sorry, I think I saw somebody,
Speaker 4: Max Meyer, what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 4: I bet you he's still oh is I was gonna
Speaker 4: say like.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no, thir again people lose interest, that lose patients.
Speaker 2: Pick this guy up before everybody else does. Be ahead
Speaker 2: of the Kurk cave Povic all right, what do you
Speaker 2: think of kave povid yesterday? Six runs, a five and
Speaker 2: a third Welsh your thoughts?
Speaker 4: The walks stunk. I watched the first three or four inning.
Speaker 4: He gave up four and runs, but a lot of
Speaker 4: weak contact. I'll tell you that that the fourth run
Speaker 4: was really stupid. It was like, here's a blooper they
Speaker 4: couldn't catch. There's another blooper couldn't catch, a lot of
Speaker 4: weak contact. But he walked too many guys. I don't know.
Speaker 4: I mean, I think you got to give him another opportunity.
Speaker 4: But it definitely wasn't what you want.
Speaker 2: But Wonkey says, but I thought they were encouraging things,
Speaker 2: trying to find a puppa Joe to sit on. That again,
Speaker 2: that was phrasing. Phrasing is everything. Also, Christian Scott down
Speaker 2: at Triple A struck out seven. Now this is an
Speaker 2: interesting one too, because Scott was a guy obviously has
Speaker 2: done nothing wrong. It's just a matter of, you know,
Speaker 2: where the BET's rotation got squeezed. You know, I got
Speaker 2: Peterson bag, you got mcgil, you got you know, all
Speaker 2: these guys that like, you know, somehow jose Ktan is
Speaker 2: still allowed to be a professional pitcher at this point.
Speaker 2: Uh So, what do you think Scott's roster ship is
Speaker 2: down to after all this?
Speaker 4: I bet you it's like twenty if if Meer is
Speaker 4: like in the thirties, I'll bet you it's like yeah,
Speaker 4: really well, it was publicly said that like this wasn't
Speaker 4: like a demotion, this is a this was like they
Speaker 4: want to manage him and they want to Yeah, but
Speaker 4: still if he's going out like striking out seven and
Speaker 4: these going innings in the miners, those are one case.
Speaker 1: Oh point drop Povich f Meyer one hundred percent. I
Speaker 1: would absolutely do that. That's that's a nod, all right.
Speaker 4: I don't think Kate Povich should be like universally like
Speaker 4: slammed like Okay, this was another failure. I like, hold
Speaker 4: a second. If they option him, you know what to do.
Speaker 4: But there was encouraging stuff in that start that I
Speaker 4: don't think we should be one hundred percent dismissive yet,
Speaker 4: but I would drop him.
Speaker 2: For yeah, Max, for sure, definitely for sure. All right,
Speaker 2: Three up Jared Durant four for five with a dinger. Also,
Speaker 2: this is all Boston Red Sox related. I just decided
Speaker 2: all Red Sox today. Four for six for Rafayela, four
Speaker 2: ribbies for him, a great day and tenor how nine strikeouts?
Speaker 1: Boy boy, what a day. I know it was the
Speaker 1: White Sox, but still what a day.
Speaker 2: Three down, but really it's kind of like it up
Speaker 2: Slay Chacconi surrender three runs in how many innings?
Speaker 1: Four and a third to ching. Let's go Pablo Lopez.
Speaker 4: He look good though, better than you made him out
Speaker 4: to be. But yeah, he still didn't make it five.
Speaker 4: I wouldn't point out you got a little lucky too,
Speaker 4: he only went eighty one. For whatever reason you like,
Speaker 4: we could have got there.
Speaker 2: Pablo Lopez seven runs and four innings against the Yankees yesterday,
Speaker 2: which pissed a lot of people off.
Speaker 1: I get it.
Speaker 2: I'm still buying I know it sounds crazy. Marcus Strowman
Speaker 2: allowed five runs and four and two third in the
Speaker 2: same game as an eight five games, so if he
Speaker 2: took the over, you got thirteen runs in that one.
Speaker 2: Pretty good. Let's do injuries here. X rays were negative
Speaker 2: for Nico Horner, that's good. And when Diaz struck out
Speaker 2: two in a scoreless inning in hy A Brooklyn, you
Speaker 2: go in, so that's good. Joe Musgrove apparently has a
Speaker 2: bone spur and the contusion is right elbow, so this
Speaker 2: is actually I feel like the best case scenario. Bone
Speaker 2: spurs are something you can deal with, get cleaned up,
Speaker 2: and come back in a few weeks. So keep an
Speaker 2: eye on that. That's an interesting situation. It's not the
Speaker 2: doom and gloom that I think we all were expecting
Speaker 2: it to be. Eloya Menez will begin a minor league
Speaker 2: rehab assignment next week. Cees Christian and Carnassio Stram clear
Speaker 2: to resume baseball activities. Rondalkulia did have his surgery Wednesday
Speaker 2: to repair the ACL and Wilson Contreras, after that gruesome injury,
Speaker 2: is working on throwing and catching again on Thursday, so
Speaker 2: that is a very good sign too. Because that was
Speaker 2: a gruesome, horrible, terrible, no good injury there. I watched
Speaker 2: that happen live and it was no pain. Now, So
Speaker 2: Welsh injuries aside. It's Friday. It's time for the best
Speaker 2: bets with Joey P and Welsh. Go to bet three
Speaker 2: six five, use the promo code leading off bet five bucks,
Speaker 2: get one hundred and fifty and bonus bets when you
Speaker 2: do again. That's a bet six five with the promo
Speaker 2: code leading off eighteen or oven Kentucky gambling problem called
Speaker 2: one hundred gambler or one hundred bets off in Iowa.
Speaker 1: Terms and conditions apply. Now.
Speaker 2: A terrific week here on the betting side of things.
Speaker 2: So I want to finish strong on Friday. So we're
Speaker 2: gonna go back to your Arizona Diamondbacks. I picked on
Speaker 2: him yesterday. Now we're gonna pick them straight up on
Speaker 2: the money line with my boy Brandon Fott against the
Speaker 2: Padres right now. But Chadah's a little banged up here.
Speaker 2: The Padres a little banged up just mentally. Plus one
Speaker 2: awight on the money line. You're getting plus money on
Speaker 2: this one. So give me Brandon Fott and the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Speaker 2: Give me the Land of Braves on the run line
Speaker 2: minus one and a half against the Washington Nationals Chris
Speaker 2: Sale on the mounta tonight, so hopefully we get a
Speaker 2: good outing out of him after a questionable outing not
Speaker 2: too long ago. And then I'm gonna kick the Yankees
Speaker 2: when they're down because losing Sodo, I mean, I don't
Speaker 2: think you're gonna have soda. You're gonna get Yamamoto, but
Speaker 2: no Soto. Dodgers Yankees tonight plus one thirty six on
Speaker 2: the run line, minus one and a half of the Dodgers.
Speaker 2: So I love the Dodger hitters like Otani and Freeman
Speaker 2: in that ballpark today going against who's on the mound
Speaker 2: for them today. It's not all these call up starters,
Speaker 2: I believe for the Yankees.
Speaker 4: For the Yankees, oh it's Cody Uh, thank you.
Speaker 1: Cody Petit is on the mound today.
Speaker 2: So yeah, give me the Dodgers against Cody Petit one
Speaker 2: and a half on the run line, min as one
Speaker 2: and a half. And for the parlay of the day,
Speaker 2: let's go to the Braves Nationals game. Give me over
Speaker 2: Chris Sale six and a half strikeouts and give me
Speaker 2: the Braves on the money line. You put them together,
Speaker 2: get plus one fifty nine. That is your parlay of
Speaker 2: the day. Welsh, what do you have for the people?
Speaker 4: Have you? By the way, is that the four day
Speaker 4: streak is good?
Speaker 1: Bet I was one in one or one and two yesterday, so.
Speaker 4: It looks really good. Make sure you go and follow
Speaker 4: no go and follow Joe bettingpros dot com slash. Joe's
Speaker 4: had a nice little run. I still have my streak
Speaker 4: four days with a little fire emoji on betting Pros.
Speaker 5: But but.
Speaker 4: I'm pre warning everybody. Fridays are my nemesis. I don't
Speaker 4: know why it's been all season long. I want to
Speaker 4: take Friday down and I'm gonna do it today. And
Speaker 4: we're gonna start with the Baltimore Orioles. We're gonna take
Speaker 4: the Orioles through the first five on the money line,
Speaker 4: and that's like even money, and that's picking on Aaron Savale.
Speaker 4: Aerin Savale has a five three seven era. You've got
Speaker 4: Cole Irvin on the mound with a two eight four,
Speaker 4: a nice bounce back start. I just need them to
Speaker 4: be up by a run, and if they are tied,
Speaker 4: I push. But it's even money for the Baltimore Orioles
Speaker 4: through the first five, so give me that as my
Speaker 4: top bet. Number two. Going to another first five, We're
Speaker 4: going Minnesota first five again moneyline minus one twenty five
Speaker 4: from Minnesota. We've got Joe Ryan going up up against
Speaker 4: Mitch Keller. Joe Ryan has been really solid this year,
Speaker 4: actually better x FIP than his actual era, the good
Speaker 4: strikeout numbers, Pittsburgh taking to strike out a bit, Mitch
Speaker 4: Keller up and down, and then you mentioned him. My
Speaker 4: third going Chris Sale on a bounce back, and I'm
Speaker 4: taking his strikeouts and that's a little bit risky, but
Speaker 4: it's a plus money play at six and a half
Speaker 4: over because Washington doesn't strike out a bunch at least
Speaker 4: on the full season total, but as of recent they
Speaker 4: have been twenty one percent swinging strike rate against no
Speaker 4: that's just the total over the last two weeks, but
Speaker 4: over against lefties during that period of time, they have
Speaker 4: one of the higher swinging strike rate in chase rates
Speaker 4: actually up against lefties. So I'm gonna say Chris Sale
Speaker 4: bounces back, big goes for the big strikeouts, gets to
Speaker 4: seven on plus money, So give me Chris Sale six
Speaker 4: and a half plus strikeouts at plus one fifteen. Those
Speaker 4: are my three bets as I yeah, down Friday, get out.
Speaker 1: Of here, not taking back Tuesday, right, Wasn't that a
Speaker 1: band or something? I don't know?
Speaker 2: But taking down Friday them? I just want more band
Speaker 2: puns today, but it's Friday. Those are the best bets
Speaker 2: of the day. Again, download the Betting Pros apps, start
Speaker 2: betting smarter, not harder, and follow us at betting pros
Speaker 2: dot com, slash Joe and slash Welsh if you want
Speaker 2: to track all of our bets along with us, So Welsh.
Speaker 2: It's time for home run calls and the Dodgers are
Speaker 2: coming into the teeny tiny Yankee Stadium this weekend, so
Speaker 2: I expect Suoeyotani to hit several home runs. So I
Speaker 2: don't care if it's boring a home run department. I
Speaker 2: need a home er in the worst way. I've been
Speaker 2: stuck at seventeen forever, forever, So if I get three
Speaker 2: from Otani this weekend, that'll put me into twenty.
Speaker 1: Back on the right side of the board or the
Speaker 1: left side of the board.
Speaker 2: And again, don't forget the winners getting a signed Vlad
Speaker 2: Guerrero junior bat Welsh, where are you going for your
Speaker 2: home run call this weekend?
Speaker 4: We're gonna go back to basics and we're gonna take
Speaker 4: my boy, Gunner Henderson going up against the Vale Swally.
Speaker 4: It's got like a one point six home run for
Speaker 4: nine right now. So give me Gunner Henderson to get
Speaker 4: me back on the home run trek. I think I
Speaker 4: got one this week. No one gave me an update
Speaker 4: on where I was. I think I'm at twelve or thirteen,
Speaker 4: so I'm still pretty far off. So maybe Gunner can
Speaker 4: do me big and get me close to getting on
Speaker 4: that stupid board. Because remember Welsh on the strikeout or
Speaker 4: the home run board, Joe piece of Pia gone comes first.
Speaker 4: Right now, it's looking very much like the Joe.
Speaker 2: Cars drop Manaia or Povich for Maximier. So yes, any
Speaker 2: of them, I would probably drop Povic first.
Speaker 1: That would be my way to go. So justa on
Speaker 1: the mount I like that. That's a fun one.
Speaker 2: So Welsh, anything fun going on for you this week?
Speaker 2: And any happenings for the Welsh's family. I know your
Speaker 2: kids are off from school already.
Speaker 4: Actually, yes, my kids they're quite the actors today. They've
Speaker 4: had a year long performance this before. It's like a
Speaker 4: horror type of thing called Trap, and my son is
Speaker 4: one of the leads in it. So we are going
Speaker 4: to be going tonight and tomorrow to watch both of
Speaker 4: my kids. My daughter this is her big line performance
Speaker 4: and my son in his. You know what's the lead
Speaker 4: performance for a horror It's called Trap, Trap Trapped. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I don't know. It should be fun, but yeah. So
Speaker 4: we're gonna be doing that over the next two days,
Speaker 4: supporting the kiddos and they're acting. Gonna go to a
Speaker 4: complex game as well early tomorrow, and then you know,
