I am Ryan Warmley, 3 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:12,520 Speaker 2: joined by Chris Wels. 4 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: It is still in November. 5 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 2: We are very much in football mode right now, but 6 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 2: we are also thinking about baseball. We've had some awards 7 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:22,959 Speaker 2: announcements coming out lately. We are just a couple of 8 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,479 Speaker 2: weeks away, Welsh from the Winter Meetings, which I have 9 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 2: very fond memories growing up as just one of the 10 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 2: most fun weeks of the year and just kind of 11 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 2: following all the twists and turns. 12 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:33,199 Speaker 1: I remember there was one year of the Orioles. 13 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 2: We're talking to Prince Fielder when I was in college, 14 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 2: and it was really exciting imagining, you know, all the 15 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 2: fun transactions we could see. So we are, you know, 16 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 2: not as far away as you might think from some 17 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 2: real fantasy baseball discussion. We are bringing you, folks, some 18 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 2: fantasy baseball podcasts in the offseason. Here kind of tied 19 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 2: us over before we really dive deep in January. You've 20 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 2: been doing a couple of these shows already well with 21 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 2: Joe Alrico some other short form videos, and we decided 22 00:00:58,480 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 2: to get you and me together here to talk about 23 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 2: some dynasty risers and Follers. 24 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm also baseball. We're in football mode, but I'm 25 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 3: always in baseball. Most people know, like the Arizona Fall 26 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 3: League just ended, so I'm dealing with this. This is 27 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 3: my seasonal depression because then baseball actually just ended for me. 28 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 3: But you know, from a dynasty perspective, watching a bunch 29 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,759 Speaker 3: of top prospects that are going to have some dynasty 30 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 3: impact here, and I'm excited to do this, and we're 31 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 3: doing more baseball than we've ever done. And you know, 32 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 3: funny you mentioned the Winter meetings. In my previous life, 33 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 3: I had a job, a corporate job that the hotel 34 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 3: next to it was the hotel that players basketball and 35 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 3: baseball players would go to, and they had the winter 36 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 3: meetings here in Arizona, and they would go at that 37 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 3: hotel for one or two of the years. I want 38 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 3: to say when I was at that company, and I remember, 39 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 3: you would if you went down, you would just see guys. 40 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 3: You would see just owners and you would see players. 41 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 3: I remember Brian Wilson famously, the big bearded closer for 42 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 3: the Giants. It was like a hundred I mean, I 43 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 3: guess this wasn't Winter meetings, but it was one hundred 44 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:57,919 Speaker 3: and ten him walking around with you know, with the 45 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 3: shirt out into jeans and doing all that. But the 46 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 3: winter meetings, these guys all walking around felt very intimate 47 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 3: in that that you got to, I got to almost 48 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 3: be a part of it. But we're gonna have a 49 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 3: bunch of moves. All of this and the transactional changes 50 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 3: from teams to player values is pretty exciting. And you 51 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 3: know what we say, it's only November and baseball is 52 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 3: still a little bit of ways. It's already going. Drafts 53 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 3: are going, NFBC is going. I'm excited to do it, 54 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 3: and I'm very excited to talk dynasty with you. 55 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I love dynasty. 56 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 2: This is the fantasy sport that I most enjoy, the 57 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 2: dynasty keeper league type of format. You know, I do 58 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,839 Speaker 2: play in some of those for like college basketball even 59 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 2: but football obviously, but baseball is really where, I mean, 60 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 2: the prospects are just so much of a bigger part 61 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 2: of the experience of playing fantasy baseball than you know, 62 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,239 Speaker 2: there's not minor leagues for football, right it's just college 63 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 2: guys coming in, So it's a different experience doing dynasty 64 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 2: in baseball. 65 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,119 Speaker 1: That's one of the reasons why this is the show. 66 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: I wanted to hop on with you. 67 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 2: I love talking through the long term value and risers 68 00:02:58,480 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 2: and followers in. 69 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: Sort of format. 70 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 2: Let's dive right in. We're gonna do risers. We'll go 71 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 2: five to one that we'll give you some followers five 72 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 2: to one. These are gonna be Welsh's picks, so we'll 73 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 2: just kind of kind of talk them out and why 74 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 2: we feel the way we feel about them. Then at 75 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 2: the end of the show, we're gonna give an all 76 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: Dynasty riser team. I thought that would be a fun, 77 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 2: quick little thing at the end where we give you 78 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 2: one guy at each position who kind of builds out 79 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 2: the team of guys that are rising down before we 80 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: dive in, just to give kind of the a framework 81 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:25,239 Speaker 2: of the episode for people. 82 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: Are you viewing these and these are the names you 83 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: put together. 84 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 2: Are you viewing them as guys who rose the most 85 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 2: last year or guys who you think are poised to 86 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 2: rise the most this year, or some kind of in 87 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 2: the in between, just like in the middle of rising 88 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 2: right now and then following when we get to that segment. 89 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 3: That's a great question. So I view these as the 90 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 3: big change year over year for people to understand we 91 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 3: kind of did something similar in the redraft of Hey, 92 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 3: you know, familiarize yourself. These are players last year that 93 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 3: have really changed their rank into upcoming years drafts. These 94 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 3: are players that they're dynasty value year over year has 95 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 3: had a major change. And you know that can come 96 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 3: from players that you know, it's really difficult with prospects 97 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 3: and young guys that it's like younger players are going 98 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 3: to rank a lot higher in Dynasty just in general. 99 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 3: But even some of these young guys have just taken 100 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 3: another step in their value. So again there's a bigger, 101 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 3: longer question about these players breaking out, but no, this 102 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 3: is going to be the biggest changers of their dynasty 103 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 3: value to start last year if you were starting a 104 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 3: fresh one to this year. And the same thing with 105 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 3: the guys that are falling. Those are players that ranked 106 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,919 Speaker 3: probably from anywhere from a decent amount to quite a 107 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 3: bit higher last season and then due to this most 108 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 3: recent season age things we're going to talk about have 109 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 3: fallen in the ranks. Whether that is you guys restarting 110 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 3: and starting up a new Dynasty draft, which I highly 111 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 3: suggest if you have not played Dynasty like Worm is 112 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 3: saying you should, I think it brings life even more 113 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 3: to fantasy baseball, if ever you've been fringy about it. 114 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 3: But whether you're starting up or you want to understand 115 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 3: value because in the off season you're gonna get the Hawks, 116 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 3: the Sharks are gonna be circling around trying to get 117 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 3: your players. Hey, you know what you should trade me? 118 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 3: Jackson Cheerio. He was pretty good, right, but he only 119 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 3: had a DODA. They're gonna be circling, So you want 120 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 3: to understand the values, and that'll be That's my approach 121 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 3: to this conversation. 122 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 2: My best, just quickly, I don't know my best dynasty league. 123 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 2: It's more of like a deep keeper league. You keep fourteen, 124 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 2: you know, at cost my best one of those that 125 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,559 Speaker 2: I'm in, I have a one dollar Bobby Witt Junior, 126 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 2: a one dollar Gunner Henderson, and a one dollar Jackson Cheerio. 127 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 2: So I am feeling darn good about that league. Yeah, 128 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 2: I think I only play one redraft league a year. Honestly, 129 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 2: it's the work league. Like the rest I too. I 130 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 2: mean sometimes I'll do like some of the contest stuff, 131 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 2: but like in terms of just like an annual league 132 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,559 Speaker 2: with the same kind of friends, a group of people 133 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 2: it's I so largely do dynasty now. 134 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: I just I just really prefer it. 135 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's funny you say that because there's a 136 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 3: couple there's like the you know, you maybe played a 137 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 3: long time and you might have this monster. I've had 138 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 3: a couple of those where it's like, you know your 139 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 3: major guide one is like Vlad and I had a 140 00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 3: Kunya and all those build ups, and then you have 141 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 3: those teams that you've been working on. Mutual friend friend 142 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 3: of the show Scott White from CBS, He's got this 143 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 3: the long term Scott White Dynasty leagues that I took 144 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 3: over three or four years ago to twenty fourteen league. 145 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,239 Speaker 3: I'm going into this year finally I drafted Paul Skeins, 146 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 3: I got Corbyn Carroll, I got Bobby Witt, I got Otani. 147 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 3: I'm finally ready to compete and Skeens is kind of 148 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 3: the big piece to it in a points league. So 149 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 3: building up and finally being ready to go off of 150 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 3: that dynasty is very rewarding. But also seeing the fruits 151 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 3: of your labor four or five years in being like, 152 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 3: look at those values. That's what it's all about. 153 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 2: We are going to get to some Paul Skeens discussion 154 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 2: later on, perhaps unsurprisingly, let's start off with a prospect though, 155 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 2: Roman Anthony in the Miners last season two ninety one, 156 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 2: three ninety six, four ninety eight slash line, so almost 157 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 2: nine hundred on the ops there just a little bit 158 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 2: under eighteen home runs, twenty one stolen bases, so kind 159 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 2: of one of those dual threat guys. We'll start next 160 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 2: season at twenty years old. What led him to being 161 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 2: on this list as a prospect? 162 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 3: For you, Welsh, So, I think that's like the big 163 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 3: question in general about and in the evaluation of dynasty, 164 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 3: specifically baseball, It's like, how do we fit in the 165 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 3: prospects because, like you said, there really isn't necessarily that 166 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 3: in other sport dynasty leagues for the most part, it's 167 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 3: like you can just throw the rookies in, you can 168 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 3: throw them up high, and there's usually maybe a year 169 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 3: transitional period. That's not the case here. You know, you 170 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 3: can have guys some people have like Sebastian Walcott who's 171 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 3: with the Texas Rangers, super young guy, or Leo de Vreese, 172 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 3: Leo DeVries with the Padres just turned eighteen years old. 173 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 3: Those guys could be top fifty in some dynasty leagues, 174 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 3: those guys might not play for a couple of years. 175 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 3: So it's a different world. So with that, I also 176 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 3: think the prospect rank world is not in agreement, and 177 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 3: maybe more than it's ever been in a singular year. 178 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 3: And what I mean is, I think you check ten 179 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 3: different people that rank prospects, different number one probably in 180 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 3: seven of those ten, probably a different number two. So 181 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 3: there's this big well. 182 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 2: You know why, it's because there's finally not an obvious 183 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 2: oriole sitting there at number one. 184 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 3: You're not wrong, You're not right. 185 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: I'm lovisio. 186 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 2: But yeah, the last few years, Okay, well it's clearly gutter, 187 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 2: it's clearly Jackson Holiday. 188 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: We finally don't have that. 189 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 3: This year, we don't and you're looking for those big 190 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 3: threats guys. So I'm building this all to get to 191 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 3: the prospect to say that when you look at prospect rankings, 192 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 3: I think near the top, Jason Domingez, Dylan Cruz, those 193 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 3: guys have been there, whether they're one and two on 194 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 3: a list or four and five, they were on dynasty 195 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 3: rank lists already pretty high. A majority of the guys 196 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 3: of coming off the Walker Jenkins was another one. So 197 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 3: we come to a player that rose dramatically in prospect 198 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 3: rankings this year and by some outlets is the number 199 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 3: one prospect in baseball. It's Roman Anthony. So Roman Anthony 200 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 3: we've got to talk about from a dynasty perspective, because again, 201 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 3: whether he is number one or he's inside my top five, 202 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 3: he's not my number one overall prospect. The guy hit 203 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 3: triple A. The guy put up a monster, monster season. 204 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 3: Low k rate in triple A was under twenty percent, 205 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 3: was around eighteen percent. He ran around twenty five percent 206 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 3: in double A. Projected Steamer numbers. Steamer numbers are already 207 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 3: out there. So after he just went out and hit 208 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 3: eighteen homers, still twenty one bases. Both increases. He's increased, 209 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 3: you know, pretty much every year he's been playing. Steamer 210 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 3: has him for a light fifty ish games. But if 211 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 3: we were to take Steamer's projections, which are usually relatively 212 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 3: low on prospects, the one hundred and sixty two game 213 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 3: pace is roughly twenty fifteen eighteen fifteen, right in that 214 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 3: general range. So I just want to give you kind 215 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 3: of a perspective of where that's at. Now. They've got 216 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 3: a quadrant of players that are in TRIPAA. They've got 217 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 3: Marcelo Mayer, They've got Christian Campbell, Kyle Teal, and Roman Anthony. 218 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 3: All of those guys are on the precipice of coming 219 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 3: to the majors. Maybe a couple of them get moved, 220 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 3: it won't be Roman Anthony. I think Roman Anthony is 221 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 3: the key piece to this team. Really good patients, huge 222 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 3: big hard hit numbers. Will have to continue to monitor, 223 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 3: like where the contact stuff goes as we get in, 224 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 3: but it's big hard hit numbers. This team loves him, 225 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 3: and there's a legit chance some of the trade options 226 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,079 Speaker 3: that this team has talked about in the off season, 227 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 3: our guy's like Willie or Brady to open up spots. 228 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,839 Speaker 3: So we circle it all back to say, prospects are 229 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 3: going to shine and jump out to people on Dynasty lists, 230 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 3: and the top two at least in my world, Dylan 231 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 3: Cruise and Jason Dominguez are already in the majors. So 232 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 3: Roman Anthony is one that is going to fly out 233 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 3: to you. I've got him inside my top seventy five. 234 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 3: He has a legit shot to be up this season 235 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 3: and beat Steamer expectations of games played. Could easily hit 236 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 3: one hundred and more or maybe we get shocked because 237 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 3: he hit triple A and this team is open to 238 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 3: putting him in the majors when we talk about the 239 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 3: compensatory pick. So I say all of this to say 240 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 3: from a rank dynasty perspective, because he moved up so 241 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 3: much on everybody's prospect list and has vaulted into the 242 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 3: number one spot. He's going to rank somewhere between probably 243 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 3: thirty five and eighty five on any dynasty list out there. 244 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 3: And he's a super young triple A outfielder who does 245 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 3: not have everything locked in, but is a big future 246 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 3: of the game. And that's a massive dynasty change just 247 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 3: kind of across the landscape compared to the rest of 248 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 3: the prospects that are out there. 249 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 2: Something like round five, round six in a startup, is 250 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 2: that where you'd be eyeing to take him. 251 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. So there's also a big conversation about, like how 252 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,679 Speaker 3: do you treat dynasty. Are you a win now? Are 253 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 3: you a middle like I'm going to kind of take 254 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 3: pieces of everything or are you going to be I'm 255 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 3: playing for the future. If you were playing for the future, 256 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 3: Roman Anthony might be a third or fourth round pick 257 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 3: in dynasty. If you're just kind of median across the board, 258 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 3: I would say, like you kind of nailed that. Like 259 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 3: I said, if I have him in the seventies and 260 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 3: it's a fifteen team league, fourth, fifth, sixth round somewhere 261 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 3: in there, it's a good future play. 262 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 2: Let's go to some of our major league players here 263 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 2: who have risen up. Mark Ventas the Mets twenty seven 264 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 2: home runs in one hundred and eleven games, won't turn 265 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 2: twenty five until next month. Eight thirty seven ops, one 266 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 2: thirty five ops plus in twenty twenty four, just like 267 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 2: an awesome breakout season. I did not see coming going 268 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 2: into the twenty twenty four and now is somebody I'll 269 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 2: be a lot more excited to drive twenty twenty five. 270 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 2: As far as the dynasty ranking goes, where do you 271 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 2: have him? 272 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 3: So yeah, I completely agree with you too. By the way, 273 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 3: everyone thought this was going to be Brett Batty. Brett 274 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 3: Batty was going to be the one, like, hey, he's 275 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 3: going to play a whole bunch, and Venta's had some 276 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 3: big swing and misissues and he still does. So I 277 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 3: have Vienta's inside my top one hundred. I've actually got 278 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,839 Speaker 3: Roman anthe a little bit higher. Totally could understand if 279 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 3: someone's like, hey, that's under selling. Look at that power. 280 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 3: He's thirty plus home run projected every single season. Not 281 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 3: going to argue there. I think he's somewhere in that 282 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 3: same general like seventy five to one hundred. I've got 283 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 3: him specifically right at ninety one. Right now. What I 284 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 3: really love he hits lefties and righty's well, at least 285 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 3: he did this past season. A phenomenal fourteen point one 286 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 3: percent barrel percentage and a forty six percent hard hit rate, 287 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 3: something I'm hyper focused on, especially impactful hitters. I'm always 288 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 3: going to look at barrel percentage and I'm going to 289 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 3: look at hard hit numbers because if you're barreling up 290 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,079 Speaker 3: the ball, hitting that on that really good spot and 291 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 3: you've got good hard hit whether you are a poll 292 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,439 Speaker 3: Happy or you're Paul Goldsmith type of contact hitter, good 293 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 3: things are gonna happen. So those are two really great recipes, 294 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 3: and it played itself out in Mark Vianto's last year. 295 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 3: My worries though almost a thirty percent k rate that 296 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 3: is paired with a forty percent with rate against any 297 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 3: forty plus percent against any non fastball, So fastballs he 298 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 3: did his work with. Everything else he struggled with, and 299 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 3: that goes with a thirty two percent chase rate. So 300 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 3: when teams are readjusting to him this year, you're going 301 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 3: to probably see more breaking pitches. They're gonna want him 302 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 3: to chase because he's got a high chase rate, and 303 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 3: if it's not a fastball, he struggles. So that to 304 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 3: me mitigates maybe some of the batting average. It doesn't 305 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 3: mitigate the power because I think it's pure, great raw power, 306 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 3: and those are the things that hold me back from saying, hey, 307 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 3: this is a top fifty prospect, because guess what if 308 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 3: he dramatically improves on you know, his strikeout rate and 309 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 3: hits for a higher average, it's kind of like Pete 310 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,839 Speaker 3: Alonso Like, maybe it's not as dramatic as of power, 311 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 3: but it's kind of Pete Alonzo ish. So I think 312 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 3: there is more up there, but I think there's some volatility. 313 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 3: Projections early Steamer projections two forty two with thirty two homers, 314 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 3: that's phenomenal. That's an easy top one hundred. Some might 315 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 3: even take him top fifty. But that's a huge dramatic 316 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 3: year over year change because I think a lot of 317 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 3: people were writing Vano's off last year because of the 318 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 3: Wiff issues, but he just turned really quality it bats 319 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 3: into big power and the projected number ce it carrying. 320 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 2: Over so just quickly because he's not on our list 321 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 2: for the followers. What does Vanto's establishing himself as like 322 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 2: the third basement of the future for the Mets? What 323 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 2: does that do to Brett Batty in your opinion in 324 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 2: terms of dynasty. 325 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 3: Well, I think it really hurt. I think it makes 326 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 3: Brett Bady a trade target. 327 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: Do you think he'll get traded? 328 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 3: I think there's a high possibility. But here's a caveat. 329 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 3: I'm going to throw it at you. Peter Alans a 330 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 3: free agent. If ped Alonso doesn't resign, Mark Vanto's is 331 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 3: the first basement of its future. Yeah, I personally kind 332 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 3: of think that's where they want v Into's long term. 333 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 3: And it's not to say that ped Alans is not 334 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 3: going to resign. I think, no matter what Alonso resigns 335 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 3: or doesn't resign, I think Brett Batty is up as 336 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 3: a trade, you know, potential target. And let's say they 337 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 3: go and sign one Soto, They're not gonna do much 338 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 3: else in free agency, So what's the best course of action. 339 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 3: Take those prospect assets, go and take the Luisan Helicunyaz, 340 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 3: take the Brett Baties, Maybe take some of those young 341 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 3: pitchers Brennan Sprott or Blake Tidwell, and you know, make 342 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 3: some impactful trades to pair with a guy like Sodo 343 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 3: if they do that. So I think either way, Batty 344 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 3: is kind of on the way out. 345 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 2: Welsh, there was one name when you sent me this 346 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 2: list that I was kind of confused by. I raised 347 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 2: my eyebrows at Junior Cameronaro, Who's the next guy on 348 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 2: this list? And that was he was the biggest reason 349 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 2: why I wanted to ask kind of what the framework 350 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 2: of these players were where you're kind of looking at 351 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 2: what we saw last year versus the future. Because Caminara 352 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 2: was obviously a very highly touted prospect going into last season, 353 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 2: I drafted to stash him in a couple of re 354 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 2: draft leagues, and you know, it may or might not 355 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 2: have panned out in those leagues. Obviously, six on runs 356 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 2: two forty eight, two ninety nine, four twenty four slash 357 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 2: line in just forty three games at the big league level, 358 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 2: last year, only twenty one years old. I'm not saying 359 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 2: we're giving up on him as a prospect anywhere anywhere. 360 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: Close to that. 361 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 2: But I was surprised to see him list it as 362 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 2: a riser because I thought he was pretty highly tatted 363 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 2: already comes in, didn't exactly set the world on fire, 364 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 2: and now you have him as one of your biggest risers. 365 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 2: So can you kind of explain that decision for us? 366 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think this was like the toughest one. There 367 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 3: are multiple players we could have put in this, like 368 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 3: and not that I was trying to like theme out 369 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 3: any of the picks, you know, like let's have this 370 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 3: type of guy and this type of guy, but you know, 371 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 3: you do look and you go, Okay, Jackson Churio phenomenal 372 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 3: rookie year, let's go. But he was already ranked really high. 373 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 3: Jackson Merrill was Actually that would be a decent one 374 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 3: talked about on the Rejob Show. Would have been a 375 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 3: decent one to do as well. Jackson Holiday probably could 376 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 3: have almost been in one of those fallers, but I 377 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 3: think he kind of maintained So here's the reason I 378 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 3: decided to do it. So I do think that Camonaro 379 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 3: for the most part held you know, relative to last year, 380 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 3: like maybe he was he actually might have been as 381 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 3: high as he is ranked right now. I think in 382 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 3: season he really really fell off, you know, he just 383 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 3: kept not getting called up. I think there's the injury. 384 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:16,440 Speaker 3: He came up. He was decent in his time. Why 385 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 3: I think I decided to do this was two things. 386 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 3: I think he's firmly established in his rank range right 387 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 3: now without question. So I think the I have him 388 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 3: twenty fourth in Dynasty. So that is a two round player, 389 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,199 Speaker 3: whether you're playing in twelve team or fifteen team. But 390 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 3: it is affirmed. It's not like, hey, we're putting like 391 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 3: last year, we're putting Jackson Holliday up in the top 392 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,680 Speaker 3: twenty five and then they fall. I think those guys 393 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 3: have a lot of wiggle room. The second was this, 394 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 3: of all the players that we're talking about here, specifically 395 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 3: the risers and the major league guys, I believe that 396 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 3: Camon Arrow's difference between his redraft and Dynasty value is 397 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 3: the most dramatic. Give me Jackson Churio redraft in Dynasty close, 398 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 3: Jackson Merrill close. You keep kind of going through the list. 399 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 3: Maybe Jackson Holiday would have been a little bit different 400 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 3: as well. But I think there's a pretty big dramatic 401 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 3: change between the redraft of Kemenaro this year and what 402 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,719 Speaker 3: his dynasty value is, which could throw people off. And 403 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 3: the key points that I really wanted to focus because 404 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 3: I just wanted to talk about him. I said, I 405 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 3: love barrel percentage and hard hit percentage. Bam eleven point 406 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 3: eight percent barrel percentage with a forty five percent hard 407 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 3: hit rate. He did in his rookie year, which you 408 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 3: said it wasn't really great, came up late, it was okay, 409 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 3: hit two forty two, didn't you know, knock anybody socks off. 410 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 3: Everybody didn't get crazily excited. I love that elite bat 411 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 3: speed seventy seven point two mile per hour bat speed 412 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,360 Speaker 3: league averages around seventy two. That's at the tippy top 413 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 3: of the league. An incredibly great bat speed while he 414 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 3: barrels and hits the ball hard projections. This is the 415 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 3: Steamer projections on him this season. Twenty nine homers with 416 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,439 Speaker 3: the two sixty two batting average, five stolen bases and 417 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 3: ninety RBIs almost thirty homers off of that initial season, 418 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 3: that yet rookie season that you saw you take some 419 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 3: of the underlying stuff. With a massively boosted batting average 420 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 3: and huge hard hit and bat speed, I really think 421 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 3: he's established himself here. I will say this, I am 422 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 3: worried about the batting average in general, chase rate thirty 423 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 3: five percent chase rate with a forty two percent breaking 424 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 3: ball with rate, so he is going to get hit 425 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 3: with probably more sliders early on people pitching probably from 426 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 3: behind on him, not trying to challenge him with fastballs, 427 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 3: and I am a little bit worried he could get 428 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 3: ahead of himself. But I think in general, my main 429 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 3: point to this is there's a pretty big difference between 430 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 3: Redraft and his dynasty value, even though year over year 431 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 3: dynasty values closer. I think it was really important to 432 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 3: talk about him because I feel like we got more 433 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 3: answers of the important rookies last year. Even in holidays 434 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 3: struggles and Sureio and Paul schemes, We're going to talk 435 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 3: about all those guys. I feel like we got all 436 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 3: the answers of the important prospects we didn't, we got more. 437 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 3: I think we have more clarity and Dylan Cruz with 438 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,120 Speaker 3: what we saw last year than what we actually got 439 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 3: out with Junior Camenaro, and I just I thought felt 440 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 3: it's important to reaffirm like his status as an elite 441 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 3: future power bat and we just got to pay attention 442 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 3: to what that chase rate and with the batting average goes. 443 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 3: But twenty four in Dynasty for me. 444 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 2: So in a startup in a vacuum, you are taking 445 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 2: him in what rounds? 446 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 3: Second round? Yeah, I'm taking him in the second round. Yeah. 447 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 3: I will say, like, I tend to be more of 448 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 3: a win now type of guy, so I'm okay with 449 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 3: pushing like Hosi Ramirez, Mookie Bets. Those guys are the 450 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 3: real dicey guys early on in uh in dynasties right now, 451 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 3: because it's like the thirty one thirty two where Mooki 452 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,360 Speaker 3: and Ramirez and Judge would be like what top six 453 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 3: seven picks in a redraft, those guys can get pushed 454 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 3: to the second. So for me personally, like if Jose 455 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 3: Ramirez fell to like the middle of the second I 456 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 3: want to win now, I probably would wouldn't not probably, 457 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 3: I definitively would not be able to pass him up 458 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 3: to win now. So that's why he could fall off 459 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 3: of my radar a tiny bit. But if I was 460 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 3: more focused on young or I had these wheel picks 461 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 3: JUNI Camerenero is a massive target because he's super young. 462 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 3: I think the power is going to get there. I'm 463 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 3: just a little bit worried about his transition of like 464 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 3: what the batting average is going to be in him 465 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 3: improving his chase rate. But he was an elite hitter 466 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 3: in the minor league. You just wish he stole more. 467 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 3: It's kind of it's kind of many Machado wish there's 468 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 3: a little bit of Manny Machado in him. 469 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 2: Let's get to a number two on the risers list. 470 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 2: A guy I love was not confused to see included here. 471 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 2: James Would nine home runs, fourteen stolen bases in seventy 472 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 2: nine games last year, two sixty four average, seven to 473 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 2: eighty one ops. Just recently turned twenty two. I think 474 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 2: he is going to be a fantasy monster for a 475 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 2: long long time. 476 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 3: Completely agree. And he was one of those dudes last 477 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,160 Speaker 3: year where it was just like, you know, maybe he's 478 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 3: eight nine in prospects, you know, floated up to the top, 479 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 3: and then he just had this monstrous start to the 480 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 3: season and then he gets called up and there's really 481 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 3: everything that you wanted from him nine homer's, fourteen stolen 482 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 3: bases and just under three hundred at bats. Love that 483 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 3: he hit for average and his expected batting average was 484 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 3: higher than his actual batting average two sixty four to 485 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,399 Speaker 3: two sixty nine batting to XBA, which you love already. 486 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 3: He's putting up upper tier barrel numbers again. Like the 487 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 3: theme for me is if I get that pairing of 488 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 3: like double digit barrel percentage with really good hard hit numbers, 489 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 3: I love it well. Ten percent barrel rate in his 490 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 3: rookie year, fifty two percent hard hit rate, absolute monster 491 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 3: launch angle was low like some rookies. It's actually very 492 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 3: reminiscent of Vladimir Guerrero Junior. He did kind of the 493 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,400 Speaker 3: same thing barrel hard hit in his first couple of years, 494 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 3: and he'd have like a five degree launch angle. 495 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 2: That's exactly as an ass James would a two point 496 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 2: four degree launch angle. He just hit the ball on 497 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 2: the ground so much. 498 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 3: It's it's a total it's like very uncoard common. It's 499 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 3: not uncommon, it's a very common, like rookie trait of 500 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 3: you know guys that are selling out to really like 501 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 3: hit well. And that's like the thing that I loved 502 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 3: about him in the miners, he did the same thing 503 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 3: hits lefties. You know, he's a big lefty, lefty righty. 504 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 3: He doesn't have like a lefty righty split, which is incredible. 505 00:22:58,200 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 3: So this is one of those guys that I don't 506 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 3: think is trying to sell out for power. Like I 507 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 3: will tell you, I think Junior Camerinaro does like just ginormous, 508 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 3: crazy fast bat speed that is just generating these big homers. 509 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 3: James Wood was letting things come to him, and you 510 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 3: know that's what I think. Sometimes you hit kind of 511 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 3: across your body and it's like double's power. But that 512 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 3: barrel and hard hit percentage when that fixes is going 513 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 3: to look elite. Now, his K percentage has to come down, 514 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 3: but a very encouraging number. Twenty one percent chase rate, 515 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 3: one of the lowest in the league. I mean, it 516 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 3: didn't qualify because he didn't play enough, but you know, 517 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 3: twenty one percent chase rate when I just told you 518 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 3: the chase rate in the smallest sample size for Junia 519 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 3: Cammeraro was thirty five percent. So you know, like there 520 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 3: are some warning signs that people will be like, well, 521 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 3: you know you didn't hit as much power as I thought, 522 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 3: and he had some high strikeout rate, launch angle fix, 523 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 3: great hard hit numbers, low chase rate. That makes me 524 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 3: feel phenomenal and where he was probably floating between I 525 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 3: don't know, seventy eighty ninety, maybe the Roman Anthony range 526 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 3: last year. He's twenty three and maybe pushes into the 527 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 3: top twenty right now in Dynasty. He's another one of 528 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 3: those guys that it's like, you can build this great 529 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,479 Speaker 3: young core. I think he's created some great baseline traits 530 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 3: for himself that is going to continue to get great, 531 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 3: and don't be surprised when you get a thirty thirty 532 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 3: season out of James Wood in the next year or two. 533 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 3: That's what's in play and that's why he's a top 534 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 3: two round player. 535 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 2: He was basically on pace for a twenty thirty season 536 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 2: as a rookie with a two sixty four average. Just 537 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 2: turned twenty two. I mean, I yeah, like this guy 538 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 2: is the limit for for him? 539 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 1: Truthfully, I don't think you can put a ceiling on him. 540 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 2: Speaking of guys who don't have a ceiling, Number One, 541 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 2: Paul Skean's surprising nobody, or at least it shouldn't just 542 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 2: a beast of a rookie season, I mean an incredible 543 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 2: rookie race in the National League. This year Paul Skeens 544 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 2: does end up winning Rookie of the Year in that league. 545 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 2: You always it was one of the seasons where you 546 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 2: wish you could just give this both rookie awards to 547 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 2: National League guys and have the al skip out a 548 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 2: year because of how strong it was in the senior circuit. 549 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 2: But yes, Skians hundred thirty three innings, one C nine 550 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 2: to five, whip, one hundred and seventy strikeouts, I mean, 551 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 2: twenty two years old, is as a rookie, you know, 552 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 2: less than a year removed from being the number one 553 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 2: overall pick in the draft, one of the best pictures 554 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 2: prospects to come into baseball in a long time, and 555 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 2: lived up to the height immediately. There was absolutely no 556 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 2: adjustment period necessary, just a monster. So really, we don't 557 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 2: need to sit here and give this effusive praise for Skins, 558 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 2: because anybody listening to this show is well aware of 559 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 2: how good Paul Skins is. So I want to ask 560 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 2: you this and frame it as if in a dynasty startup, 561 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 2: how many names. Obviously you're not taking any pictures ahead 562 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 2: of him, unless you want to correct me, I can't 563 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 2: imagine you would. But how many hitters are you taking 564 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 2: before Paul Skeens is getting drafted? 565 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a it's a good question, and I think 566 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 3: the main point, just to reiterate of bringing him up 567 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,400 Speaker 3: is to say he's the US. He's almost the unquestioned 568 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 3: redraft starting pitcher. I think some people are a little 569 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 3: dicey because to pay a higher price for schemes over 570 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 3: like Schooble doesn't make sense to some people. It's not 571 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 3: close in dynasty. To answer your question, I have schemes 572 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 3: at twelve, so that would be eleven hitters that are 573 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 3: over him. Or if you want to be sneaky about it, 574 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 3: you know sho hail Tani to a player, so you know, 575 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 3: maybe there is a picture above. Yeah, here's the only 576 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,640 Speaker 3: thing that holds him back. Because based on what you 577 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:23,640 Speaker 3: saw with Paul Skeins, you could argue he's like top 578 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 3: three or four, and like you. 579 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: Could argue, I wouldn't do this. 580 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 3: It can't argue don't do the one number one overall 581 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 3: because I don't. 582 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: Think you can do it. 583 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 2: You I was going to say, you could make an 584 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 2: argument I would disagree with that argument. I think you 585 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 2: could make the argument if you think that the gap 586 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 2: between him and other pictures for the next decade is 587 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 2: as wide as it could be, I think you can 588 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 2: make the case. I would not unequivocally I would not 589 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 2: take him number one in a Dynasty startup. 590 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 3: For a level of dominance. 591 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: I would listen to an argument, and then I would 592 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: reject the argument. 593 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 3: So here is the problem with all of those is 594 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 3: fun accolades. He's a picture, and that's ultimately the problem. 595 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 3: Why he can't he isn't higher. You could be like, 596 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 3: how can you have him at ten? Soon? Show has 597 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 3: him at seven? Great? He's a pitcher in Dynasty. Like, 598 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 3: the one thing you don't really want to do, especially 599 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 3: if you are a young team, is build into pitching 600 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 3: in Dynasty. I would also say, in a general sense, 601 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 3: until you are closer or heavily competing, you just don't 602 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 3: want to be weighted so heavy on pitching. Now, if 603 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 3: you were to take Paul Skeen's, great, you're locked down 604 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 3: for a really long time. He's a phenomenal pitcher. I 605 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 3: mean tenth best War of all pitchers this past year 606 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:36,360 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty pitchers. Oh this is the number. 607 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,919 Speaker 3: I didn't coherently write this, but of one hundred and 608 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 3: twenty pitchers with one hundred or more innings pitch this 609 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 3: past year, Skeen said the lowest RA of one hundred 610 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 3: or more innings pitch, one hundred and twenty pitchers lowest era, 611 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 3: and he also made great strides. That sinker turned into 612 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 3: what they call the splinker. It's just like a hard 613 00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 3: sinker that he throws throws in between like a split finger. 614 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 3: It had the second best whiff rate amongst starting pitchers. 615 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 3: Only Crochet was higher, and it was almost thirty percent 616 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 3: and had a twenty percent k rate on it, which 617 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 3: was top ten among starters. Because the point is is 618 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 3: like sinkers don't induce strikeouts, which is insane and Steamer 619 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 3: projections for this year check this out. He is number 620 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 3: one projected in strikeouts this year off of his rookie year. 621 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 3: There's no other picture. He is the highest strikeout projected. 622 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 3: He also had the best ERA of every single one 623 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 3: of those two hundred plus strikeout pitchers, fifth best k 624 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 3: per nine and second highest war projected to Jacob deGrom, 625 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 3: which is hilarious. But the thing you need to know 626 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 3: is Paul Skeins is the unquestioned first round type of 627 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 3: talent starting pitcher, but ultimately he is a starting pitcher. 628 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 3: So when you ask me that question coming back, how 629 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 3: many hitters would I take above him, it is ten 630 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 3: because I don't personally from a startup, want to build 631 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 3: around a starting pitcher. I could see a scenario where 632 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 3: I think buying pitching in dynasty is a lot tougher 633 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 3: than people make it out to be. I think some 634 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 3: dynasty people are like, oh, you just don't worry about it, 635 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 3: and you just build all your hitting and then right 636 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 3: at the end you can get your pitching now. It 637 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 3: doesn't work like that. Every dynasty I've ever played, people 638 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 3: are hoarding their pitching. You could draft schemes and then 639 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 3: knowing values drop a little bit if you go and 640 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 3: get you know, a Jose Ramirez or you get a 641 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 3: first round talent and then you build around some more 642 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 3: win now type of players. I think that's a better approach. 643 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 3: That's how I would do it. I wouldn't want to 644 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 3: be drafting Paul Skins and then James Wood and Da 645 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 3: da da. I think the risk is too great. This 646 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 3: is also one of the highest velocity fastball pitchers out there. 647 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 3: You gotta he was pitched like a gajillion innings in college. 648 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 3: We worry about that and the usage that's on him. 649 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 3: So ultimately this is back to that, like pitching prospect 650 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 3: wanting to be heavily invested in pitchers, which I don't, 651 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 3: but it's just not remotely close. He's the unquestioned top 652 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 3: starting pitcher. He was already high last year. But he's 653 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 3: the only guy that has deserved in redraft or dynasty 654 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 3: to be even considered in the first round with age 655 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 3: due to absolute dominant students fricking second in the cy 656 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 3: young It's not even remotely close. He is a unicorn 657 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 3: of unicorns of starting pitchers, So you could do that 658 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 3: points league. This is a little bit different conversation, but 659 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 3: ultimately a pitching prospect is really tough for me to 660 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 3: put inside the top ten with the volatility. 661 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 2: The case for Skins going as high as youever you 662 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 2: want to make it is that he's an outlier, which 663 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 2: he may very well be. I mean, just as dominant 664 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 2: as he was as a rookie. 665 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 3: A unicorn argument. 666 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: You just don't see this. 667 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 2: Having said that, I mean, I think back to where 668 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 2: was Strider going in startups a year ago, and he's 669 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 2: like three years older than Skeins is now. But like, 670 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 2: you couldn't have been more excited about a pitcher basically 671 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 2: than Strider, And now. 672 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: That value falls away because of the injury. 673 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 2: So not that it's entirely gone, but obviously it looks 674 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 2: a lot different now. So I mean, we'll put a 675 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 2: bow on it just as a fun exercise. If I 676 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 2: the baseball gods came down and said to you, Chris Welsh, 677 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 2: Paul Skeins is guaranteed health for his career. Everybody's guaranteed. 678 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 2: How injuries are a thing of the past now in baseball? 679 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 2: Is he number one for you then or still not? 680 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 3: I don't think he's number one, but he's like three 681 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 3: if you guaranteed. 682 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: Me with like a kunya because injuries are gone. 683 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 3: I think Oani, even though Tana is thirty, Like I'm 684 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 3: comfortable with Tani is the number one over on Dynasty 685 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 3: because he starts pitching again and it's I know, it's 686 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 3: like a dicey conversation, Wit, I have a heart. I 687 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 3: don't think I could take Skemes over. 688 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 2: Wit. 689 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 3: Things start to open up a little bit between Akunya 690 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 3: Soto Gunner Ellie, like if I got two hundred and 691 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 3: fifty strikeouts for ten if you said ten years of health, 692 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 3: and then it's gonna open up after ten years, maybe 693 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 3: it is number one ten years. 694 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 1: It's gonna be though. 695 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's gonna hold down your whole rotation. 696 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, Paul Skins is amazing. We're not breaking any news there. 697 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 2: I do want to break some news. We've got a 698 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 2: special offer for everyone.

We 708 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 2: went a little long on the risers, so go a 709 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 2: little quicker on the followers. People also have less interest 710 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 2: in the negative side of things. We had fun with 711 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 2: the positive. We'll bring it down a bit on the 712 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 2: negative number five Mike Trout super negative one emotionally, just 713 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 2: because it's sadder and sadder every year to see him 714 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 2: not be able to stay healthy. Fantastic start to twenty 715 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 2: twenty four, low batting average, but ten home runs in 716 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 2: twenty nine games. Injured again, of course, missing the rest 717 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 2: of the year. Thirty three years old now and hasn't 718 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 2: been truly healthy in what a half decade. So I 719 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 2: assume age and injury is really the only thing going 720 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 2: into this, you know, having him listed here as a foller. 721 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's pretty simplistic to that. I mean, he's thirty 722 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 3: three years old. He clearly cannot be healthy, and that's 723 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 3: the big thing. And I want to preface this, this 724 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,479 Speaker 3: is kind of a me one too. I think there 725 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 3: are other people good for them smartly have kind of 726 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 3: moved off of the Mike Trout you know, realm sooner. 727 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 3: I am a little injury agnostic where I just want 728 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 3: to give benefits of the doubt, and I want to 729 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 3: give benefits of the doubt. And here's my biggest struggle 730 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 3: with a player is when a player is an incredibly awesome, 731 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 3: unique talent, every moment they're on the field and then 732 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 3: they get hurt. Jacob de Gram is another one of those. 733 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 3: Jagram's a little different now because he's thirty six years old, 734 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 3: but Trout is in that range now. I have continuously 735 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 3: given him that pass, but I think it is more 736 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 3: than been proven these degenerative issues, he cannot stay healthy 737 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 3: and the team gets worse around him. You also saw, 738 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 3: as good as he was, you saw some decline's massive 739 00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 3: hard hit decline this past year forty one percent. It 740 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 3: was a I guess of his entire career as a 741 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 3: third lowesst that he's ever seen. He was striking out 742 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 3: quite a bit less, which is definitely a positive, but 743 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 3: he was worse against fastballs, which is not something you 744 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,359 Speaker 3: want to see. And you just wonder if there's more 745 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 3: of the I don't know, like a patient hitter that's 746 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,359 Speaker 3: in there, that's not going to put up these big 747 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 3: impactful numbers. And his age goes on, these guys are 748 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 3: going to lose, just deteriorate a little bit. And it's 749 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 3: like if you take away the big power from Mike 750 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 3: Trout and he doesn't have forty home run potential and 751 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 3: now he's a thirty home run high batting average like 752 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 3: he's got bad players around him, so it's like, can 753 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 3: you project eighty five? Eighty five with thirty something Homers 754 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 3: doesn't steal a whole lot. I know he did steal 755 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 3: a little bit more this year. He's still six, but 756 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 3: there's not much stolen base potential, and he hits for 757 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 3: higher batting average. Listen, that's third round, but that's a 758 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 3: pipe dream because he can't stay healthy. He's never on 759 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 3: the field. So all of those things combined. I held 760 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 3: out hope last year, held out a little bit of 761 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 3: hope and redraft I was right for a month, held 762 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 3: out some hope and dynasty that. Oh he's still top 763 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,959 Speaker 3: seventy five. Look at it's outside the top one hundred. 764 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 3: I think that's the big key. I think some people 765 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 3: are going to smash him into the two hundreds. I 766 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 3: think if you are a win now team. 767 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:07,439 Speaker 1: Would you trade for him? If you're a win now team, 768 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 1: not even thinking the startup, but would you trade for 769 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: for cheap? 770 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 3: For cheap? I would be comfortable doing it if it 771 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 3: was for cheap. But I think his name value this 772 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 3: might be the first year the name value really tanked. 773 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 3: Like the name value was always there and people can 774 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,959 Speaker 3: make arguments that might be gone. So maybe I would 775 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,080 Speaker 3: be a little bit more likely, but it's outside the 776 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 3: top one hundred. But if your win, now, I think 777 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,280 Speaker 3: it's hard like outside of that, if he's just floating 778 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 3: around there, like go get that outfield. He's in a 779 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 3: DH maybe he does stay a little bit healthier. That 780 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 3: was the Byron Buxton argument. But we know he's going 781 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 3: to hit the el. But the big change is that 782 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 3: I think everybody uniformed, everybody collectively got together and came 783 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 3: off of Mike Trout. In his dynasty value, it is 784 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 3: post one hundred in a dynasty draft, probably post one fifty. 785 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, next up. 786 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 2: Luis Castillo turns thirty two next month. He made thirty 787 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 2: starts in twenty twenty four when eleven and twelve one 788 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 2: to seventy five and a third inning one hundred and 789 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,760 Speaker 2: seventy five strikeouts, so almost exactly identical there three sixty 790 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 2: four ERA just a one oh one ERA plus so 791 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 2: just barely above average in that metric, and a one 792 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 2: to seventeen whip. That's his worst since twenty twenty one. 793 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 2: Is Castillo an age related foller? 794 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, Well it's twofold, it's age thirty two year old 795 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:21,920 Speaker 3: picture that doesn't feel real great, and that's paired with 796 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 3: VLO decrease and those two things don't don't work super well. 797 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 3: Now it's changed before. I think Verlander went through this 798 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 3: and kind of readjusted his career and refound himself. So 799 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 3: I don't think that that. I really don't think like 800 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 3: a lot of these guys are these damning like they 801 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 3: can never come back and never improve and you have 802 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 3: to fade these guys Like No, I think it's just 803 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 3: the value changes. I will be frank. I think there's 804 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:46,400 Speaker 3: multiple pictures I could have chosen from. I was picking 805 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 3: between them, so a younger guy and Zach Gallon that 806 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 3: I think his value has changed. Logan Webb has come down, 807 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 3: Aaron Nola has come down, but specifically Castillo hitting that 808 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 3: thirty two year old marker having you know, arguably is 809 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 3: still a good season, but like one of the worst seasons. 810 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 3: It's the second worst expected ERA that he has had 811 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:09,280 Speaker 3: in his entire career, three straight years of an ERA 812 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 3: increase as well, and on top of it, the whiff numbers, 813 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 3: So the VILO went down, but the whiff numbers decreased 814 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 3: across the board, almost across the entire board of all 815 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 3: of his pitch types. So you had his fastball going 816 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:23,760 Speaker 3: down about a mile per hour. I think a slider 817 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 3: did as well, and with decreases with the age, I 818 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 3: don't love it. And he went from a guy that, 819 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,359 Speaker 3: regardless of the age, was probably top thirty five, top 820 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 3: forty last year and he is pushing outside the top 821 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,720 Speaker 3: eighty and frankly, pinning the type of rotation you're putting together, 822 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 3: you might be better set with a Brandon Fott. I 823 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 3: think Uri Perez, even coming off of his surgery at 824 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 3: his age, is a better long term investment to me, 825 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 3: and Luis Castillo's value is in the team that I 826 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 3: am pushing back some of these young players and I'm 827 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 3: trying to win. 828 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 2: Now. 829 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 3: You can push him up, but I think there's some 830 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 3: bad trends in the wrong direction for Castillo. 831 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 2: Luis Robert next on the list, still only twenty seven 832 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 2: years old. It's not an age related one here. Fourteen 833 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,839 Speaker 2: home runs, twenty three stone bases in one hundred games. 834 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,880 Speaker 2: In twenty twenty four, he hit a two twenty four, 835 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 2: two seventy eight, three seventy nine slash line ops plus 836 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 2: eighty seven, which was the first time in his career 837 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:20,359 Speaker 2: he was below one hundred, so below average. We went 838 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 2: into including Robert on this list. 839 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 3: I'm not black and white in everything that I do, 840 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 3: So when I tell you that a guy's fallen or 841 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 3: rose up, I don't think it's the be all end all. 842 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 3: I think there's a gray area in all of it 843 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 3: that guys can fix themselves and if there's a player 844 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,320 Speaker 3: on the decrease that can improve themselves. So least Robert 845 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 3: age is in his favor, pretty big, productive years are 846 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,720 Speaker 3: in his favor. But last year it was such a stark, 847 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 3: scary reminder of how bad it can be. And maybe 848 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 3: you chalk it up to like you're playing on one 849 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 3: of the worst teams of all time, you're not invested. 850 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 3: He was injured, he was playing out here in the 851 00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 3: I saw him multiple times playing in Complex League. You know, 852 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 3: his friends were gone, Eloy was traded. Mancata was a disaster. 853 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 3: Like I think there's a personal element of it. Maybe 854 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 3: he just wasn't interested because it didn't seem like it, 855 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,960 Speaker 3: But the stats tell that story full on thirty three 856 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 3: percent k rate, that's the worst. Barrel percentage dropped to 857 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,840 Speaker 3: nine percent, which was the lowest of his career, but 858 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 3: he had a career worst five point nine barrels per 859 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 3: plate appearance. That's like, I think the lowest before that 860 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 3: was like seven point one bottom six percent dole of 861 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 3: the league in expected batting average of two ten. Even worse, 862 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 3: his hard hit rate crash to forty point seven percent, 863 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 3: which was the second worst of his career, and that 864 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 3: was a two percent decrease year over year. Those trends 865 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 3: all combined are scary and bad. Could he fix it? Sure? 866 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,320 Speaker 3: If he is more motivated. Projections actually tell the story 867 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 3: that he will. They see a bounce back two forty 868 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 3: with a twenty eight twenty eight season. Why is that, though, 869 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:57,879 Speaker 3: because projections usually will work off of modeled three year performances, 870 00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 3: and if you take the three years, there's some big 871 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 3: performance in there. But I think what we saw out 872 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,880 Speaker 3: of Robert last year scares the hell out of me. 873 00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 3: So I had him massively high talent is unquestioned, top 874 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,399 Speaker 3: twenty five, top twenty. I think I had him last year. 875 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:15,919 Speaker 3: I'd knocked him out of the top seventy five because 876 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:19,400 Speaker 3: these things worry the ever living crap out of me. 877 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 3: For Dynasty to have that investment, if he fixes it 878 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 3: going to try to quickly make a turn. But I 879 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 3: think these trends are going in a really bad direction. 880 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 2: And you could hardly blame him if it was any 881 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 2: kind of just mental burden of playing for that White 882 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 2: Sox team, like anybody. 883 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 3: And I acknowledge that, like that might be part of it, 884 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:36,719 Speaker 3: and that might be why he's maybe a bye. He 885 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,360 Speaker 3: maybe he's a sneaky bye if everyone is off of him. 886 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:44,080 Speaker 2: Another older pitcher, Garrett Cole, only made seventeen starts, obviously, 887 00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,120 Speaker 2: after he missed the start of the season in twenty 888 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 2: twenty four. It's the first time he said fewer than 889 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,720 Speaker 2: thirty starts in a season since twenty sixteen, not including 890 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:55,280 Speaker 2: the COVID shortened twenty twenty season. Thirty four years old, obviously, 891 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,279 Speaker 2: he went eight and five for the Yankees, three forty 892 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 2: one ERA ninety nine strikeouts in ninety five innings pitched. Again, 893 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,880 Speaker 2: is this an injury slash age related one for a 894 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 2: guy who's been a regular first rounder in READJAFT leagues 895 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 2: for a long time. 896 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, like some of these guys, I think again, there 897 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 3: are people that are maybe different or treat some of 898 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 3: these things different. I will give benefit of the doubt 899 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 3: for super talented players. Age means sometimes a little bit 900 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 3: less to me in dynasty than other people. You know, 901 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:23,840 Speaker 3: if you're like thirty two, people are putting them outside 902 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 3: the top one hundred. I want to win now, and 903 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:29,760 Speaker 3: I want those talented players. But Garrett Cole is showing 904 00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:34,760 Speaker 3: some pretty concerning signs. Five straight years of declining K percentage, 905 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 3: which is down to twenty five percent, while his walk 906 00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:40,840 Speaker 3: percentage dupped up to seventy seven point four percent. Those 907 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 3: combine if you ever pay attention to K minus walk percentage, 908 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 3: that's not good. That's not good. That walk percentage, by 909 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 3: the way, was the second highest of his career. He's 910 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 3: expected era has risen four straight years, and like we 911 00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:55,719 Speaker 3: talked about with Castillo, Velo declines he had about a 912 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:58,360 Speaker 3: full mile per hour on his fastball and slider go 913 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 3: back down at thirty four years old. I don't like 914 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 3: those trends. He's still a talented play He's still got 915 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 3: things done, but it's not coming at the same velocity 916 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 3: or impact of what it was before. And as you 917 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 3: get older, you know, either there's kind of that like 918 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:13,719 Speaker 3: do you adjust to be from a power pitcher to 919 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 3: a kind of maybe I'll call it like a finesse 920 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:17,319 Speaker 3: type of picture, and I just don't think that's there, 921 00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 3: and it's adjusted and again year over year. Garrett Cole, 922 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 3: regardless of age, I think, was still seen as a 923 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,360 Speaker 3: top two to three sp in Dynasty. He is not 924 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,360 Speaker 3: there right now in Dynasty. I've got him right around fifty. 925 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 3: And that might even be being a little bit generous, 926 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 3: because if those declines continue to grow, it's gonna get 927 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:38,880 Speaker 3: it's gonna have like a dramatic punch to what his 928 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:40,879 Speaker 3: value really is. And I wouldn't be shocked if he's 929 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:44,000 Speaker 3: like outside the top seventy five here come next season. Frankly, 930 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 3: if if it was Luis Castillo at like eighty or 931 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 3: Garrett Cole at fifty, think I might even want Luis Castillo. 932 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,200 Speaker 3: I think those guys are closer now where I just 933 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 3: don't think they were before. 934 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,000 Speaker 1: Last foller here. I was a little surprised by this one. 935 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 2: Corey Seeger thirty years old at home runs in one 936 00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty three games, So obviously he didn't play 937 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 2: the entire season. He had some injury stuff he was 938 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:08,360 Speaker 2: dealing with two seventy eight, three, fifty three, five, twelve, 939 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 2: triple slash in twenty twenty four ops plus of one 940 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 2: forty five. So he was good when he was on 941 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 2: the field, you know, particularly the power numbers. But obviously 942 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 2: you know, a slightly shortened season. He's on the wrong 943 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:20,960 Speaker 2: side of thirty. But it's not like he's in his 944 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 2: late thirties, So can he explain this one a little more? 945 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 3: Well? His body, I think feels like it's just much 946 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,920 Speaker 3: older from the early thirty eighth injuries. So he and 947 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 3: I love Corey Seeger, like Corey Seeker's changed, and this 948 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 3: is part of the rank change. I had him in 949 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,680 Speaker 3: the teams regardless of his age last year because you 950 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 3: see this guy just big, hard hit numbers, high batting 951 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 3: average over three hundred, one hundred thirty plus homers, hitting 952 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 3: three twenty or whatever, like that's what I love. But 953 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 3: he can't stay on the field, and we also saw 954 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 3: declines in some of the performance. So here's my biggest worry. 955 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 3: You're saying the wrong side of thirty, you're just gonna 956 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 3: be thirty one on April twenty seventh. He might not 957 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,720 Speaker 3: be back until he's thirty one because he had sports 958 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 3: hernia surgery and they said he will likely be back 959 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 3: likely is a key term for the beginning of the year. 960 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 3: If there's no setback, and Corey Seeger is the Mike 961 00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 3: Trout of future run injuries. He has had tons of 962 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 3: injuries out there, So I am if I'm going to 963 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 3: be concerned about Mike Trout, I got to be concerned 964 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,240 Speaker 3: about a guy that has had a history of injuries 965 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 3: as well, that team offensively on the decline. You know, 966 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 3: also batting average had a little bit of a sink 967 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,399 Speaker 3: right now. I think, you know, putting him at number 968 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:33,239 Speaker 3: one makes it feel super dramatic, like Cory Schieger is 969 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:35,239 Speaker 3: the biggest on No, it's just this is a guy 970 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 3: that I think you could have legitimately taken in the 971 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 3: second round of dynasty drafts that I don't think you 972 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,720 Speaker 3: should consider until the fourth round, and you are taking 973 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:44,880 Speaker 3: some inherent risk with injuries. So there's a theme to 974 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 3: a lot of these. Outside of Robert, who I think 975 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 3: is dramatically performance based, it's looking for age to injury 976 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:55,879 Speaker 3: concerns that might have other little like velocity things and 977 00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 3: having a major sports hernia surgery really concerns me about 978 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,400 Speaker 3: Corey Seeger. I need those games out there. I think 979 00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 3: you're just taking on some more inherent risk if you're 980 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 3: taking him inside the top definitely the top three rounds. 981 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:09,879 Speaker 2: All right, well, let's go very quickly through our all 982 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:12,360 Speaker 2: Dynasty Risers team. This is a team you put together. 983 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 2: There's a couple of them that I'll highlight where I 984 00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:15,400 Speaker 2: might have gone in a different direction. 985 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 1: So just very quick on each of these catcher. 986 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 3: Who you got cal Raley cal I thought the catcher 987 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,400 Speaker 3: was actually really difficult because most of the catchers kind. 988 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:25,799 Speaker 2: Of like totally did not. I was like looking at 989 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 2: was like, is there a better one than cal Rally? 990 00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 2: And there really wasn't. 991 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 3: You want to know, Samuel Bissio was like one of 992 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:31,880 Speaker 3: the higher ones I had, but I'm not going to 993 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 3: put him on there. But cal Rally changed his value 994 00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 3: by becoming a better hitter, big impactful power. Cal Rally 995 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 3: is definitely the guy at catcher. First base, Mark Vianto's 996 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 3: I think he belongs as one of the highest first 997 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,879 Speaker 3: base risers in the in the land. Second base, this 998 00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 3: one I wanted to talk about him in this. I'm 999 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 3: glad we got to put him here. Kudel Marte, this 1000 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 3: is an over thirty guy that I put on here, 1001 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:56,799 Speaker 3: So don't be like, hey, well you so you like 1002 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 3: to win now, but there's no older guys thirty one 1003 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 3: years old. But guess what, kuld tell Mary became a 1004 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:04,040 Speaker 3: fixture at second base, arguably one of the top second 1005 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 3: basemen to be drafted for next season. MVP candidate. He's 1006 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:10,439 Speaker 3: a core hitter, did everything, hits the ball, still hard 1007 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:14,320 Speaker 3: and more consistent now. Kutel Marte definitely rose up in 1008 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 3: dynasty ranks this year. 1009 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 2: You've got Junior Camonaro a third We already talked about him. 1010 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 2: How about shortstop. 1011 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:21,840 Speaker 3: Zach Netto would have been a player I would have 1012 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:23,919 Speaker 3: loved to have talked about. The only caveat that's holding 1013 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 3: me back. He had an injury and he might miss 1014 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 3: a little bit of this the beginning of the season. 1015 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 3: But Neto was one of those dudes. Power stolen based 1016 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 3: combo twenty thirty could be a twenty forty guy in 1017 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,080 Speaker 3: the near future. Became a huge impact bat at the 1018 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 3: top of the Angels lineup. And I had this dynasty 1019 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 3: debate at the end of the year. A guy was 1020 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:42,880 Speaker 3: trying to trade me Robert and he wanted Netto, and 1021 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,320 Speaker 3: I was like, dude, I got Netto over Robert in 1022 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:48,320 Speaker 3: Dynasty now, so zach Netto is around a top fifty 1023 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,760 Speaker 3: to sixty fantasy player even regardless of the injury. 1024 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 2: This is the position that I wanted to bring up 1025 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:55,359 Speaker 2: somebody else, And maybe the guy I'm about to bring 1026 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:57,600 Speaker 2: up is a year away from being on this list 1027 00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 2: because he's a very young minor leaguer and you actually 1028 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:01,799 Speaker 2: already mentioned him earlier, and I was glad you did. 1029 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,719 Speaker 2: I'm not even sure if I pronounce it right, Leotlise Devri. 1030 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:07,359 Speaker 2: Is that the correct way to pronounce the Leo divrees. 1031 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:09,920 Speaker 3: Leo Delis, Leo Dallas, Leodahas. 1032 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 2: Okay, it's one of those names are you only ever 1033 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 2: really read instead of here said out loud? 1034 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 1: But Leo devrees. 1035 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:16,719 Speaker 2: So I think he's going to be a top five 1036 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,720 Speaker 2: prospect in baseball at some point in his minor league career. 1037 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:23,080 Speaker 1: I'm over the moon about him as a prospect in Dynasty. 1038 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,840 Speaker 2: Obviously a couple of years away, but I felt like 1039 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 2: he really broke out in a way where he went 1040 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:32,480 Speaker 2: from Oh, that's an interesting flyer to have in some 1041 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 2: deep Dynasty teams too. This is a priority prospect for me, 1042 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:38,240 Speaker 2: in any sort of prospect slot that I can afford 1043 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 2: to sit on it for a couple of years, so 1044 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:40,719 Speaker 2: I really wanted to bring him up. 1045 00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, I completely agree. It just saw he just played 1046 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:44,920 Speaker 3: in the Arizona Fall League. One of the youngest. He 1047 00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:47,160 Speaker 3: was the third youngest to ever hit a homer in 1048 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,720 Speaker 3: the Fall League, behind only Ethan Sallace and Bryce Harper. 1049 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 3: He's a phenomenal bat. I really like switch hitter like 1050 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 3: he's got a smooth, smooth bat, better than Ethan Solace's. 1051 00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,160 Speaker 3: I agree with everything he's saying. He's already a he' 1052 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:02,759 Speaker 3: said the sixth prospect on my prospect list, So he's 1053 00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:05,960 Speaker 3: already like their dynasty. He is just two years away. 1054 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:08,239 Speaker 3: I work in three year windows, but he is a 1055 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:11,400 Speaker 3: guy that's valued right around that like one hundred to 1056 00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,680 Speaker 3: one twenty five range. So I do agree he will 1057 00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 3: be a guy we're probably talking about next year. 1058 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:16,759 Speaker 2: By the way, I forgot to mention I was gonna mention, 1059 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,520 Speaker 2: and you have Cameron Aar obviously at third. I think 1060 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:21,280 Speaker 2: you can make a case of third in my opinion. 1061 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 2: For Jordan Westburg, we haven't talked about enough Orioles on 1062 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 2: this show. Sure I did not have him that highly 1063 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 2: ranked diacet. I thought he was gonna be He's a 1064 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:29,759 Speaker 2: really solid player. I love having him on my team 1065 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:32,759 Speaker 2: as an Orioles fan. I was more impressed than I 1066 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:36,560 Speaker 2: expected to be with his consistency month a month in 1067 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 2: terms of better power than I expected from him. Obviously, 1068 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,400 Speaker 2: he only had eighteen home runs because he missed some 1069 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:43,560 Speaker 2: time with a broken wrist. I think it was when 1070 00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:45,479 Speaker 2: he got hit on the hand or something on a pitch, 1071 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 2: so that those numbers look a little diminished. But I 1072 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:50,359 Speaker 2: was really impressed with Westburg, and my estimation of him 1073 00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:52,920 Speaker 2: in Fantasy grew a lot last year, so I did 1074 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:54,040 Speaker 2: mean to mention him. 1075 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:56,959 Speaker 3: I would have if we if the All Rise team 1076 00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 3: was to not include any of the players we talked about, 1077 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,200 Speaker 3: which maybe we should, Westburg would have been the third base. 1078 00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:02,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1079 00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,279 Speaker 1: I was really impressed in this year. 1080 00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:06,800 Speaker 2: Matt outfield, James Wood and Roman Anthony are two of 1081 00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 2: the names. Again, we've already talked about them. Who's the 1082 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:09,440 Speaker 2: third outfielder you have? 1083 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,680 Speaker 3: Well, I kind of prefaced it when we were talking earlier. 1084 00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:16,760 Speaker 3: Jackson Merril, Like Jackson Merril does deserve the huge bump 1085 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:19,520 Speaker 3: year over year, And you know, I literally probably didn't 1086 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:21,359 Speaker 3: mention him because we did it in another show. But 1087 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,840 Speaker 3: from a Dynasty perspective, Jackson Merrill one of the biggest 1088 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:27,759 Speaker 3: risers in value year over year. He's a twenty twenty guy. 1089 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 3: His power projection and steamer is actually higher than what 1090 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 3: he did. So people are banking on that great outfielder 1091 00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 3: that's going to continue to stay out. They're really good average, 1092 00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:39,719 Speaker 3: and he is, you know, arguably probably top thirty five. 1093 00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:42,319 Speaker 3: He's a second to third round Dynasty if maybe not 1094 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:44,960 Speaker 3: second round player. Maybe his offensive impact is less than 1095 00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 3: like James Wood in Cheerio, but it's right there. So 1096 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:50,520 Speaker 3: he's going to join Wood in Anthony for our all 1097 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:52,279 Speaker 3: outfield riser Dynasty team. 1098 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a great call too. Paul skeens obviously at 1099 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:57,200 Speaker 2: starting pitcher and then wrap us up with relief. 1100 00:49:56,920 --> 00:50:00,920 Speaker 3: Pitcher Mason Miller. Maybe it's a little bit, but you know, 1101 00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:04,239 Speaker 3: closers are really difficult for people in Dynasty to figure 1102 00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:06,480 Speaker 3: out how to value them and what to do a lot. 1103 00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:09,239 Speaker 3: I mean, Hater was a huge failure last year. The 1104 00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:11,320 Speaker 3: only one that really paid off for the high cost 1105 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:13,359 Speaker 3: anyone would have done in Dynasty is a manual class 1106 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:15,520 Speaker 3: guy almost you know, he was in the Cy Young contention, 1107 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:18,760 Speaker 3: so that I think is the tippy top. But Mason 1108 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 3: Miller is if you were going to invest, my little 1109 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:25,200 Speaker 3: strategy probably don't draft a closer in any capacity inside 1110 00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 3: the top one hundred, whether you're competing or you know, 1111 00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:29,879 Speaker 3: you're kind of just trying to build out your dynasty team. 1112 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 3: Don't do it in the top one hundred. If you 1113 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:34,920 Speaker 3: were to invest, the two to invest are Emmanuel Classe 1114 00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 3: and Mason Miller. Mason Miller didn't come into last year 1115 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,719 Speaker 3: as a closer. He's still on the a's with puts 1116 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,759 Speaker 3: in question, but it's massive strikeout numbers. Guy's going to 1117 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:45,560 Speaker 3: strike out like one hundred every year. He's going to 1118 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,279 Speaker 3: save whatever viable games are out there, And in a 1119 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:52,200 Speaker 3: dynasty perspective, he might be the best bet of any closer. Frankly, 1120 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:53,800 Speaker 3: even over class A who's got a little bit of 1121 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:56,240 Speaker 3: age on him, he might be the best bet of investment. 1122 00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:59,360 Speaker 3: So the all rank risers, and probably the only closer 1123 00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:01,799 Speaker 3: that would be worth making a real investment on is 1124 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:02,480 Speaker 3: Mason Miller. 1125 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:05,279 Speaker 2: We'll wrap up there.
