Speaker 2: bets when he use the promo code leading Off only
Speaker 2: at Bet three sixty five. It is me Joey p
Speaker 2: That of course is the Welsh to the Peanuts and
Speaker 2: the Cracker Jacks here talking ball. The Mets had quintessential
Speaker 2: met moments starting on Friday, the Yankees made a deal.
Speaker 2: Some other trades have happened, and some rumors abound. We're
Speaker 2: gonna get to all of them today, and Welsh, I
Speaker 2: guess we have to start with probably the Jazz chishm trade.
Speaker 2: I think that's where I want to start the Yankees
Speaker 2: have been in a bit of a tail spin, although
Speaker 2: the weekend here they did kind of, you know, pull
Speaker 2: things out just to Tad last night. So Jazz Chishm,
Speaker 2: a guy with a career three ten obp not gonna
Speaker 2: help them get on base in terms of like getting
Speaker 2: guys up there to drive in runs, versatility. Sure, you
Speaker 2: could play second, you could play the outfield, and apparently
Speaker 2: he might play some third base. But also a guy
Speaker 2: you say, okay, well you take him out of Miami.
Speaker 2: Maybe all of a sudden he gets a bump there.
Speaker 2: But if you look at the career numbers, a seven
Speaker 2: forty ops home on the road, three three home runs
Speaker 2: exactly on the road and at home. So, Jazz Chishlm,
Speaker 2: in your opinion, what impact does this make for the
Speaker 2: New York Yankees, This deal that they made.
Speaker 4: I think it's a solid trade. We were talking off
Speaker 4: air because I was I was poking a little bit
Speaker 4: about you. You had some hits this weekend where you're
Speaker 4: very like the jet You're here, a very Seinfeld.
Speaker 3: You're like, what's the deal?
Speaker 2: What jezzose you do? Hey, I know we need somebody
Speaker 2: to get on base. Let's get a guy who never
Speaker 2: does like you can't steal first. I mean, that's all
Speaker 2: I keep saying. Justism is is still an interesting piece.
Speaker 2: I guess the argument Welsh is like, do you look
Speaker 2: at a guy like gestures and say, hey, let's drop
Speaker 2: him in Yankee Stadium, that little tiny ballpark. Let's put
Speaker 2: him in front of Aaron Judge and Juan Soto. Let's
Speaker 2: do that and see what kind of player we could
Speaker 2: get because he's never played with superstars like that before
Speaker 2: in terms of lineup protection.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's why I think this is exciting. They've
Speaker 4: also said that they're going to hit him more in
Speaker 4: the middle of the lineup, So this is a kind
Speaker 4: that's going to be hitting behind Judge And why why.
Speaker 2: Would you do that to him? Why is why is
Speaker 2: that the way to go and not hitting him too?
Speaker 4: Let's say, well, you're not to take Soto goes too,
Speaker 4: and they like to have Judge three, Like, I think
Speaker 4: that's why, simply.
Speaker 3: Why you do that? They they said that they feel that.
Speaker 4: There's been some success, very little with Glaber this year,
Speaker 4: but with Glaber in the lead off spot, I think
Speaker 4: that's bull crap. I think what the trade I had
Speaker 4: proposed a long time ago. They need to go get
Speaker 4: Nico Horner. Go get a guy that actually does get
Speaker 4: on base and that can actually be a table setter
Speaker 4: and can go and steal some basses would be the play.
Speaker 4: But you know, this is a good move for Jazz
Speaker 4: when you look at I always thought, I like looking
Speaker 4: at this because it's fun. Though it's not like a
Speaker 4: one a one all. But on Baseball Savant, they've got
Speaker 4: the expected home runs by ballpark metric, which you can
Speaker 4: go and look and you can just.
Speaker 3: You know, just spysid da da da.
Speaker 4: Number one obviously a Cincinnati for Jazz, but number two
Speaker 4: is the New York Yankees. It is the number dup Ballpark.
Speaker 4: Based on his hitting profile that he would have a
Speaker 4: projected nineteen homers there. He currently has thirteen homers twenty
Speaker 4: three stolen bases.
Speaker 2: So I don't know.
Speaker 4: I think it's a guy who in the back half
Speaker 4: of the order is gonna still be aggressive steel bases.
Speaker 4: We've seen a strikeout rate cut down, there's tons of
Speaker 4: great lineup support in there. But we kind of also.
Speaker 3: Know who he is.
Speaker 4: He's a two fifty hitter who in theory could be
Speaker 4: this thirty to thirty guy who's got some injury prone
Speaker 4: noess and you just got to hope that guys like
Speaker 4: Judge and Soto are gonna are gonna just kind of
Speaker 4: wipe off a little bit. Like he can pick up
Speaker 4: some of that on base, he can pick up some
Speaker 4: of that patientness for his overall game. But he's a
Speaker 4: great fantasy player in a better fantasy ballpark. So for me,
Speaker 4: I have nothing else to say, but this is a
Speaker 4: fantastic move for Judge, and there really shouldn't be anything
Speaker 4: else because we could talk about like, oh, Yankees and
Speaker 4: this and then another thing, great fantasy counting stat player
Speaker 4: put in a better counting stat ballpark.
Speaker 3: Huh, love it, love it.
Speaker 2: He's also got a couple of years left of control,
Speaker 2: which that I like to So the Yankees have just
Speaker 2: a little bit I think guarded themselves, and the wan
Speaker 2: so to walk away because I do think he's gonna
Speaker 2: go to the highest bidder, and I'm just still not
Speaker 2: so that the highest bider is gonna be the Yankees
Speaker 2: at the I do by.
Speaker 3: The way, that position eligibility for Jazz would throw in
Speaker 3: as well, like well, that.
Speaker 2: Was my that was a to me. That was the
Speaker 2: most I would say the best selling point is it
Speaker 2: gives you a little bit of depth there. There's rumors
Speaker 2: that DJ le Mayhew's gonna get dfa'd I saw that
Speaker 2: this morning. I don't know if that happened, but yeah,
Speaker 2: if a.
Speaker 4: Tree falls in the woods and be like, if he
Speaker 4: gets DFA, does anybody care?
Speaker 2: I don't, well, he cares. The Yankees, I don't think
Speaker 2: are done. I think they will do something else too.
Speaker 2: Uh So, I don't think that is the end. The
Speaker 2: Cubs were in the business of getting Eastot parades from
Speaker 2: the Rays for Christopher Morel, so you know those kg
Speaker 2: kg Rays. Yet again, they moved Efflyn this weekend to
Speaker 2: to Baltimore, making room for Jeffrey Springs in the rotation.
Speaker 2: He comes back this week. We'll talk more about that later.
Speaker 2: I love how the Rays have basically said, yeah, you're
Speaker 2: just gonna retool toss Bradley's pitching like an ace. Next
Speaker 2: year we get Bradley, we get Springs hopefully. McClanahan, you
Speaker 2: got Junior Camanaro. You make a couple little and the
Speaker 2: Rays are right back at the top of this thing again.
Speaker 2: In this conversation, Welf, what do you think of the
Speaker 2: move here with the Cubs and the Rays.
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is a This one caught me off guard
Speaker 4: in that it was Morel, but I get it, like Morell,
Speaker 4: like you want Morell, You're rooting for Morel. You want
Speaker 4: him to be successful. He's got some of that kind
Speaker 4: of old school hobby by there's a lot of hobby
Speaker 4: by his actually in the excitement of the big power
Speaker 4: and stuff like that, but then also put it. The
Speaker 4: swing and miss is kind of prevalent in his game.
Speaker 4: But this is one of those moves where you know
Speaker 4: they're just gonna have more control. They got off of Prade's,
Speaker 4: they got more pieces. He's like a year younger than Praties,
Speaker 4: I think, but big, big power, eighteen homers actually a
Speaker 4: solid OBP guy is one hundred point differential between his
Speaker 4: OBP and his batting average, And I think that that's
Speaker 4: something the race can work with, and I think they are.
Speaker 4: They're gonna do the five million dollar man.
Speaker 3: We can fix him. They think they can fix him.
Speaker 4: And if you can get Christopher Morell to be what
Speaker 4: some of the expected stats are, which, by the way,
Speaker 4: he's hitting one ninety nine but an expected batting average
Speaker 4: of two forty two, there's good barreling, great launch angle
Speaker 4: fourteen degrees, so he gets the ball in the air.
Speaker 4: Look at what Parides did. They're probably going to be like, hey,
Speaker 4: we have this perfect recipe for you. We got this
Speaker 4: little baby left ballpark here, this little left field that
Speaker 4: you just need to pull the ball like Parides did,
Speaker 4: and you're going to find success. I actually think again,
Speaker 4: this is a spot where he is going to be
Speaker 4: able to be more successful. He's not like one hundred
Speaker 4: percent pole guy like Praidies was, but I think you're
Speaker 4: going to see him pulling more. He's got some upside
Speaker 4: on the batting average. You've seen a bunch of homers.
Speaker 4: Probably going to be a middle of the order guy
Speaker 4: for the Rays until they trade him in a couple
Speaker 4: of years of the deadline because they can't afford anything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 3: Praidy's in Chicago though, real quick.
Speaker 2: Yes, this is the thing from Kirby here. Kelly's in
Speaker 2: here with at Waukee. Peguin thirteen fewer home runs at
Speaker 2: Wrigley than he does right now. In terms of the
Speaker 2: move to Tampa, so Tampa's always been a tricky place
Speaker 2: for offense. But what does this mean for Caminaro too?
Speaker 2: In terms of getting his rear end up to the
Speaker 2: major league sooner than later.
Speaker 4: Yeah, both of those so real quick. On the pardee set,
Speaker 4: I didn't even realize this. I was texting with Dennis Zidler,
Speaker 4: friend of the show, because also Chris Morel is one
Speaker 4: of his clients.
Speaker 3: So this is a big change. And we're talking about parades.
Speaker 4: And one of the things you do have is it's
Speaker 4: like three fifteen in left in Tampa Bay.
Speaker 3: It's like three point fifty in Chicago.
Speaker 4: So for a prime not when I say primary, that
Speaker 4: almost seems like it's not always and only poll hitter
Speaker 4: is going to have a further distance, which Wonky mentioned
Speaker 4: the thirteen fewer homers at Wrigley would be something to
Speaker 4: look at. This definitely has the potential to kind of
Speaker 4: bring back Parade's offensive upside if he isn't getting the
Speaker 4: ball further further out. Now, the big elephant in the
Speaker 4: room Junior Cameron Aro. I assume the smart take is
Speaker 4: that Junior Cameron Aro would be up almost immediately.
Speaker 2: But this is the race.
Speaker 4: And I said this last week and everyone was like, hey,
Speaker 4: you know, everything that ever happened Randy traded, Hey, what
Speaker 4: could happen?
Speaker 2: With the one he said, look, it's Paradeius, that's the
Speaker 2: one that's going to open the door. So I do
Speaker 2: think it walk through it. It does.
Speaker 4: But also what is their official move with Morel. Probably
Speaker 4: Morell would be better being a first basement or a DH,
Speaker 4: but he was a third baseman. So is he going
Speaker 4: to just jump into that role? What is their plan?
Speaker 4: I think they're going to screw with us. I still
Speaker 4: think there's a possibility we don't see him till mid August,
Speaker 4: with even the worst turn being we don't see him
Speaker 4: until mid September, so they control him for next year.
Speaker 4: But the logic is he would come up. He is
Speaker 4: his play, he's deserved of it, he's off of his injury.
Speaker 4: He should be up, and you should all speculate on it,
Speaker 4: but just don't have a big freak out when he
Speaker 4: doesn't get called up because Morell does play that position.
Speaker 4: And again this is the raise that we are in
Speaker 4: August almost and they still have not called up Camen Arrow.
Speaker 2: Well, I think it what the Rays did with a
Speaker 2: Roseraina two who is a cast off from the Cardinals organization,
Speaker 2: and how they got the most out of him, Like
Speaker 2: I'm hopeful they take these guys with electric athleticism and
Speaker 2: turn them into baseball players. And if you could do
Speaker 2: that with morel that's very exciting to me. The Mets
Speaker 2: acquired Jesse Winker. They were kicking the tires on Conforto
Speaker 2: and then landed on Winter Winker. Excuse me instead. Good
Speaker 2: move for the Mets. Whether you get Sorry Marte back
Speaker 2: anytime soon, we'll see and how healthy he is, but regardless,
Speaker 2: you need more depth than that outfield, and Winkers had
Speaker 2: a very strong season. Ellie de la Cruz three for
Speaker 2: four to four more steals. He is fifty five for
Speaker 2: sixty four on the year. Stealing bass is another show
Speaker 2: put on for Ellie de la Cruz. Man. That guy's
Speaker 2: certainly fun to watch. Some returns this weekend too. Devin
Speaker 2: Williams scoreless ninth, very nice, so good news for the
Speaker 2: Brewers who certainly needed some good news, and also good
Speaker 2: news for the race. Jeffrey Springs activated. He's going to
Speaker 2: start tomorrow, so that'll be fun.
Speaker 3: I am so excited about Jeffrey Springs.
Speaker 4: Someone put it in the chat, but like you remember
Speaker 4: last year, I think last year was my real turn
Speaker 4: here on leading off in Fantasy pros where I was
Speaker 4: here like full time like last year, like full full time,
Speaker 4: like all the time, and I came in so hot
Speaker 4: with all my Jeffrey Springs stuff and it was like
Speaker 4: build up, build up, build up, and he's gone and
Speaker 4: I didn't get any of the Jeffrey Springs. So this
Speaker 4: is my first real run. This is like getting injured
Speaker 4: in your rookie year. This is my first real run
Speaker 4: to have a Jeffrey Springs part of the season. And
Speaker 4: I am very, very excited about it because as much
Speaker 4: as his stuff never left off as this like is
Speaker 4: like Paul Skeens by any means, but just super deceptive
Speaker 4: swing and miss type of stuff. And I'm excited to
Speaker 4: see that slider back in that fastball command combo. I'm
Speaker 4: just very excited about Jeffrey Springs. Could be a little
Speaker 4: bit of bumps and bruises. One of my favorite trade
Speaker 4: targets in Dynasty if you're in the business of drafting
Speaker 4: ear trading, like you know, for like a thirty one
Speaker 4: year old starting pitcher.
Speaker 3: But love love Jeffrey Springs.
Speaker 2: Fun team name by any Skeins necessary. Huh you like that? Oh?
Speaker 3: I do like that.
Speaker 4: We're gonna put it and do the CBS is like
Speaker 4: a team name Friday type of thing.
Speaker 2: Team Yeah. Yeah. By the way, there was also a
Speaker 2: on Friday, and I warned everybody, don't get too excited
Speaker 2: because I know the Mets and the Mets are gonna
Speaker 2: met So could I senga right gets activated? There was
Speaker 2: a great game strikeouts code, I sing, and then he
Speaker 2: has a cap strain, leaves the game, probably out for
Speaker 2: the year. So so much for the big I mean
Speaker 2: they so you got got one one start, one one
Speaker 2: one start all this time. Oh my god, we go
Speaker 2: back to to March and April and all the noise.
Speaker 2: You go here, Look, could I sing, you know it's
Speaker 2: gonna be about a month, it'll be behind And then
Speaker 2: we said yeah, okay, sure, and then it was two months,
Speaker 2: and then it was the All Star break and then
Speaker 2: we got him after the All Star break and he
Speaker 2: has one start. One is seen to everybody out there.
Speaker 2: Just again, when you're taking on guys with injuries, just
Speaker 2: massive risk. You have to understand everything is not warm
Speaker 2: and fuzzy and it's gonna be great. Uh. Some things
Speaker 2: that were fun predictable. Jordan Hicks moves to the bullpen.
Speaker 2: Everybody thought that was gonna happen. We knew he was
Speaker 2: limited this year. So there you go, Giants making that move.
Speaker 2: The Padres, apparently you're in discussions with the Tigers for
Speaker 2: Jack Flaherty. That would be interesting to see. I love
Speaker 2: where the Padres like just never surrender. I love that
Speaker 2: about the Padres. Good for them, They're just like, do
Speaker 2: you have any prospects left? Let's go. Let's just keep
Speaker 2: trying to win. That's what every team should be doing.
Speaker 2: I love that.
Speaker 4: I'm actually really intrigued by it. Because Clarity is going today,
Speaker 4: so I'm not sure so far.
Speaker 2: He's he's he's on the docket to start today, but
Speaker 2: we'll see.
Speaker 3: I just don't know.
Speaker 4: If, like I feel like there's like the White Sox
Speaker 4: and the Tigers. They it's very gun shy right now
Speaker 4: because like I did not think the Trek scoobl thing
Speaker 4: would would happen. The discussions have opened back up. The
Speaker 4: Orioles are in it, and there are now there's a
Speaker 4: lot of talk that Schooble is more likely to be
Speaker 4: moved than Garrett Crochet and dude, the Garrett Crochet side
Speaker 4: that a month and a half ago, No, but a
Speaker 4: month and a half ago, if you would have asked anybody,
Speaker 4: any inside or any industry person, Garrett Crochet was the
Speaker 4: number one player getting traded.
Speaker 3: So now that TERRK.
Speaker 4: Scrubl has moved in there, but I feel like the
Speaker 4: Tigers are holding their pieces and they just don't know
Speaker 4: exactly which side they want to go, and so if
Speaker 4: they're going to trade one, might as well just trade
Speaker 4: both and get the.
Speaker 2: It's either Baltimore backing up the truck or he stays.
Speaker 2: And I just don't know if Baltimore is going to
Speaker 2: back up.
Speaker 3: I don't think they are.
Speaker 2: I don't think they are either, and that's why I
Speaker 2: think he's gonna stay there. Jerry pointing out too about
Speaker 2: Sega the silver lining and everything, is that you know
Speaker 2: now he has this is this thing in the deal
Speaker 2: where you know he can't opt out. So now the
Speaker 2: Mets get to just pay him fifteen million dollars a
Speaker 2: year so he does opt out isn't possible anymore. That's
Speaker 2: great theoretically, but again, unless he's healthy, what's the difference.
Speaker 2: So whatever, it's a lost season. I'm just annoyed, But
Speaker 2: then again I'm not because this is the Mets like
Speaker 2: and this is just what happens. Also, Carson Kelly gets dealt.
Speaker 2: We'll talk about the fallout from that and what that
Speaker 2: means too. MLB Networks John Hayman also reporting that Eric
Speaker 2: Fetti apparently the Cardinals are looking at him, so that
Speaker 2: would be smart. I think the Cardinals the I think
Speaker 2: everybody kind of smells blood in the water with Milwaukee.
Speaker 2: There's two months left Welsh. I don't think they're wrong.
Speaker 2: I don't. I think when you take Yelich out of
Speaker 2: that lineup, you take Burns out of that rotation. I
Speaker 2: think they're just very vulnerable and they have a credit
Speaker 2: to the manager. You know, he came into a tough spot.
Speaker 2: Two council was very popular. He has been there forever.
Speaker 2: The Brewers have done a great job all year, but
Speaker 2: can they finish? And I think that's a big question.
Speaker 2: I think the other organizations look and say, hey, we're
Speaker 2: in this thing. Do you agree or disagree?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: And I think I remember the trade I had talked
Speaker 4: about last week. I thought the Brewers would be the
Speaker 4: ones that would go after a guy like Jazz Chisholm,
Speaker 4: because if you're losing Yelich and you want to keep pace,
Speaker 4: you're gonna have to probably make some tough moves in here.
Speaker 4: And amazingly the Cardinals are moving away from every single.
Speaker 3: Season They're gonna trade.
Speaker 4: They're gonna trade, They're gonna trade, and their buyers, like
Speaker 4: right before the end, they just never quite give up.
Speaker 4: And if they're gonna jump back into this. One rumor though,
Speaker 4: I have heard, which is pretty interesting, is the White
Speaker 4: Sox are trying to get Jordan Walker involved in that
Speaker 4: Fetti trade. And I just don't think there's any chance
Speaker 4: the Cardinals are going to allow that to happen.
Speaker 3: But you just never know what other pieces too well.
Speaker 2: See that that's a big why to me? Like Jordan
Speaker 2: Walker at this point, I don't I mean, you've you've
Speaker 2: given him multiple opportunities, he hasn't done anything. If f
Speaker 2: Eddie can help you get in the playoffs and be relevant,
Speaker 2: considering you were a crap team last year and you
Speaker 2: just destroyed everyone's expectations, why not make that kind of move.
Speaker 2: I think that's okay. I mean, is it overpay a
Speaker 2: little bit, But sometimes you gotta do that stuff, man. Yeah.
Speaker 4: But I think for a guy like Eric, I think
Speaker 4: you could put they have a lot of pieces they
Speaker 4: could push some other pieces out there.
Speaker 3: But to the point, though it is a glut of riches.
Speaker 4: The Cardinals are doing everything plus without Jordan Walker, and
Speaker 4: their biggest depth position has been outfield. I mean they
Speaker 4: literally just keep moving guys. You know, Burlson is dominating
Speaker 4: out that. You've got Noop bar, They've got Carlson sitting
Speaker 4: in the wing. I mean, they've just got guys after guy.
Speaker 4: Victor Scott is, you know, trying to be.
Speaker 2: Aside for another couple of years. You don't, you don't
Speaker 2: need it. You don't need Jordan Walker. He doesn't have
Speaker 2: a place.
Speaker 3: I don't think they should trade Walker for Fetti. That
Speaker 3: doesn't matter. And I think that's where the.
Speaker 2: Whole Walker's had a lot of opportunities. I like Walker.
Speaker 2: I don't think he's done. I think maybe he's a
Speaker 2: guy that needs another place, you know, and I always
Speaker 2: called him Germaine Die. So maybe the White Sox is
Speaker 2: the right place for him after all. Rookie, lookie, some
Speaker 2: fun names on this list. Dylan Dingler, the dingle Berry himself.
Speaker 2: So Carson Kelly gets traded. Dingle Berry gets the call,
Speaker 2: very excited about this, very hot at triple A. Five
Speaker 2: straight games with a home run, hitting three zero eight
Speaker 2: three seventy nine, fifty nine seventeen homers, fifty two rubbies,
Speaker 2: five steals. A catcher, it's very exciting. The Dingler is up.
Speaker 2: What do you make? What's the deal with the Dingler.
Speaker 3: I'm not as excited about the Dingler as you, but
Speaker 3: I mean.
Speaker 2: I think everybody loves the Dangler.
Speaker 4: Take your same Carson Kelly Rostering energy and put that
Speaker 4: to Dylan Dingler. If you're in like a two catcher league,
Speaker 4: go and pick him up. That he's not he's not starting.
Speaker 4: He's starting as much as Carson Kelly was.
Speaker 3: That's fine.
Speaker 4: Definitely hitting well in Triple A, but I'm not I'm
Speaker 4: not gonna to anything too much further out than what
Speaker 4: Carson Kellyardy was.
Speaker 2: So nothing right. What about River Ryan, another great name,
Speaker 2: two hits, one earn, five and two thirds six two
Speaker 2: win over the Astros on Sunday, eight strikeouts, three walks.
Speaker 2: What did you think of him getting this first win
Speaker 2: as a big league career.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm I'm kind of a River Ryan guy. Good,
Speaker 4: you know, good strikeout option, walks, a little bit of
Speaker 4: an issue fastball slider, big combo a little bit of
Speaker 4: curveball in there, three pitch mix like you'd like mid
Speaker 4: nineties fastball. I don't know how he's gonna stable out
Speaker 4: as far as like WSK go and if you'd be
Speaker 4: able to stay in the rotation.
Speaker 3: But there's always the possibility.
Speaker 4: So River Ryan is definitely a guy that is worth
Speaker 4: being on the streamer market right now.
Speaker 2: A River Ryan runs through it with that.
Speaker 3: Okay, so you're you are hard into names today.
Speaker 2: I like it. I don't know why. Yeah, who is
Speaker 2: it in the chat that always does is Angelo in
Speaker 2: the chat? Always does it? He's already like doing Dirk
Speaker 2: Dingler jokes and things like that. Like every time we're
Speaker 2: in this, he's just throwing out team name. James Wood
Speaker 2: four for five, good day for him. Has also made
Speaker 2: the rookie lookie three up and three down. Carlos Redon
Speaker 2: great start on Sunday Night Baseball six and a third,
Speaker 2: seven strikeouts, Bailey ober where's this version of Bailey Oberbin?
Speaker 2: Eight shutout innings, eleven strikeouts, hot dog love it.
Speaker 3: It's a round for a little bit.
Speaker 4: I just want to point out, like I say, where
Speaker 4: has it been eleven? Well, but I'm saying the second
Speaker 4: half has been definitely where more of this has been
Speaker 4: one two ERA in the second half. So far it's
Speaker 4: registered a couple starts, but also in July had a
Speaker 4: two ERA and a three to one nine in June,
Speaker 4: So those last couple of months he has taken another
Speaker 4: step as this team probably going to be making some moves.
Speaker 4: Bailey over a nice It's hard to buy on him
Speaker 4: after all those strikeouts, but would have been a really
Speaker 4: nice buy earlier on Kyle Shwarber.
Speaker 2: Two four were two dingers. Also, I don't know if
Speaker 2: he's so over the weekend. I think it was over the
Speaker 2: weekend where Bryce Harper, at least I saw it over
Speaker 2: the weekend. I don't know if it happened over the weekend.
Speaker 2: But the Bryce Harper Wuawak cleats.
Speaker 3: Is that, yeah, he had like a.
Speaker 2: Wah wah headband, but he also had the Wahwah cleats.
Speaker 2: We had a bar code on him, they said Harper,
Speaker 2: And I don't know if Wah Wah tied it into
Speaker 2: a promotion, but all I can hope is that you
Speaker 2: can get a free coffee if he scan it or something.
Speaker 2: I mean, because that would be amazing, maybe like the
Speaker 2: best Bryce Harper thing ever, and I like, what.
Speaker 4: Do you what do you think Joe? Do you think
Speaker 4: he maybe has a deal with wah wah? There's a Harper?
Speaker 4: What he's wahwat?
Speaker 1: He know for the.
Speaker 2: People that if he scanned my cleats? Like if this
Speaker 2: picture on social media, you go get a free coffee,
Speaker 2: I would scan it. I guarantee you. There's some sort
Speaker 2: of weird easter egg.
Speaker 4: Like if you go by Claire, you have to take it.
Speaker 4: I don't not understand if you.
Speaker 2: Got it on your phone, right, Like, oh, the picture
Speaker 2: of the Harper cleats if they tweeted on social media, right,
Speaker 2: let's have a bar code on it. Do I go
Speaker 2: boop on there? And do I get like something for free?
Speaker 2: I bet I do. I'm gonna find out. I would
Speaker 2: test it, except they got rid of my wah wah.
Speaker 4: I have never been to a wall. I think they're
Speaker 4: making a wah wah nearby, but I've never been to
Speaker 4: a wah wah.
Speaker 3: Am I missing out?
Speaker 2: So great? It's so great.
Speaker 3: It's a gas station though, corract.
Speaker 2: No, no, it was they've gone in to gas stations now.
Speaker 2: It was a convenience store first that eventually got gas station.
Speaker 3: They got into the gas station business.
Speaker 2: They got into the gas business. Okay, wah wah is amazing.
Speaker 2: Wah wah breakfast is amazing. Wah wah coffees are terrific,
Speaker 2: the different varieties the cold coffees too, that they do
Speaker 2: much more cost effective than say, the Starbucks. And then
Speaker 2: they do the sandwiches, which are amazing too. I love
Speaker 2: the wah Wahay Queen, it's it's got lots of choices,
Speaker 2: the touch pads, you order your stuff and cut.
Speaker 4: Jimmy, we're gonna take this and we're gonna send this
Speaker 4: to wahwah for our five our twenty twenty five A
Speaker 4: show sponsorship.
Speaker 2: Ruhwah is better than quick check. Please, Jimmy, give us
Speaker 2: the wah wah. I please, could you on the show
Speaker 2: every day?
Speaker 4: If they were great, i'd you do all that hot take.
Speaker 4: I don't care about gas stations.
Speaker 2: So it's not a gas station. They happen to have
Speaker 2: gas stations. Oh, they happened to ignore the gas station
Speaker 2: side of it. Just go get yourself a hogie form.
Speaker 2: Wah wah. You need a hagi from the wah wah.
Speaker 2: All right, Three down Cole Reagan's eight hits for Earned
Speaker 2: runs for him David Peterson four hits, four earned runs,
Speaker 2: and Garrett Crochet we mentioned earlier six hits five runs.
Speaker 2: Are people getting cold feet? Because the July Crochet has
Speaker 2: an era close to four.
Speaker 4: Now, I think people are getting guy. I don't know
Speaker 4: if people love a guy like him dictating like oh,
Speaker 4: if you don't give me this, I'm not gonna signor
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna play or anything like that. I think
Speaker 4: that might be the cold feet action in all that
Speaker 4: it is going to take and having to sign him
Speaker 4: to a big contract versus the compensation that the White
Speaker 4: Sox are having. I think Garrett Crochet's team slyly but
Speaker 4: really screwed up the leverage that the White Sox had
Speaker 4: because the White Sox could have asked for the moon
Speaker 4: and back and now you can't knowing that there's money involved.
Speaker 4: It's similar to like the Brett and Ayuk in the
Speaker 4: forty nine ers on football side of like when a
Speaker 4: guy has to get the money, also teams are like, well,
Speaker 4: we can't give you like all this stuff because we
Speaker 4: also have to pay this guy. I think that's what's
Speaker 4: gonna probably hold Crochet back from being traded. To be
Speaker 4: honest with you, I will say massive fumble if the
Speaker 4: White Sox walk out of this deadline not moving a
Speaker 4: crochet or a Robert and all they did was trade,
Speaker 4: like Betty, you know, like I think that's a that's
Speaker 4: a massive l for them.
Speaker 2: So apparently my mic is is poppy. Now I don't know,
Speaker 2: because you sound the table for a wah wah, but
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Oh you sound fine to me.
Speaker 2: I didn't hear it, so I think it was just
Speaker 2: when I pounded my table here a little bit because
Speaker 2: I got so passionate about the wahwas.
Speaker 3: Everyone gas stations? Get you worked up?
Speaker 2: I sure do. Tristan Cassas expected to return from min Legurehannpas,
Speaker 2: i'ment on Tuesday. This is the injury news right now,
Speaker 2: the Lopez. How many more injuries can the Braves take?
Speaker 2: I'm going an MRI on the forearm. That ain't good,
Speaker 2: so that Braves are gonna have to be in this.
Speaker 3: Now, let me ask you something. Is it embarrassing?
Speaker 4: I know what a Braves fan's gona feel, but is
Speaker 4: it embarrassing if they go and they try to get
Speaker 4: like Luis Robert at this point with everything that's happened,
Speaker 4: and I would think Brady Stanton might feel like passionate.
Speaker 4: There might be an excitement like, oh, they're not giving up,
Speaker 4: but it's like, dude, everybody is getting hurt at this point.
Speaker 4: Is it worth trading assets for He's not really a
Speaker 4: rental and maybe Robert's the wrong one. But if they
Speaker 4: were to go make little moves like do you think
Speaker 4: it's silly for the Braves to do anything at this
Speaker 4: point or is it? Has it never been more critical
Speaker 4: for them to do it? To hold something Ladder?
Speaker 2: I think never been more critical. And here's why you're
Speaker 2: gonna get Strider back next year. A month into the season,
Speaker 2: maybe right, you would think somewhere around there, you can't
Speaker 2: waste the season that Sales given you, which is a
Speaker 2: cy Young caliber season you got way more like this
Speaker 2: is Ronaldo Lopez. Can we just sit there and just realize, like,
Speaker 2: come on, guys, let's not pretend like we have a
Speaker 2: gutten everything out of Ronaldo Lopez and more they gonna
Speaker 2: possibly fathomed in your wildest dreams. So yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: like you've as much as their luck has been bad,
Speaker 2: can we not look at how their luck has been good?
Speaker 2: That Chris sails a cy young again. Ronaldo Lopez has
Speaker 2: been Amber two starter in the major leagues for almost
Speaker 2: an entire season so far. So yeah, I think they've
Speaker 2: They've had an interesting balance between those two things. The
Speaker 2: Aucune injury sucks. Next year, you'll get him back. I
Speaker 2: think it is critical if you do make that move, though,
Speaker 2: that's not just a this year move, that it's somebody
Speaker 2: that you have for next year too, because you're gonna
Speaker 2: need somebody for next year. Also, it's not just gonna
Speaker 2: be sale and hopefully Strider back. Eventually you're gonna need
Speaker 2: more of the freed. Health is always question mark, so
Speaker 2: I do think it's the ladder. But it's a great question. Yeah,
Speaker 2: a really good one. Nick Gonzale, I'm sorry, go ahead. Nick
Speaker 2: Gonzala's ten day injury list with groin discomfort. He maybe
Speaker 2: need a blow. That's probably ten days of blows. Yo
Speaker 2: Hinobu Yamamoto will throw a bullpen session on Friday, so
Speaker 2: we'll see how that thing goes and hopefully there'll be
Speaker 2: more trade stuff to talk about tomorrow, which is gonna
Speaker 2: be very exciting. But in the meantime, blosh, I'm feeling
Speaker 2: pretty good because Saturday I was on in game live
Speaker 2: on Sports Grid, and I told everybody that I was
Speaker 2: a ladder betting Blake Snell, which we only do like
Speaker 2: two or three times a year, maybe four if we're
Speaker 2: really feeling frisky. I was all in on this. I
Speaker 2: only had it up to ten and he got fifteen.
Speaker 2: So Joey P is a happy boy and he wants
Speaker 2: to bring that momentum to Monday's Best Bets of the
Speaker 2: Day with Joey P and the Welsh bet five bucks,
Speaker 2: get one hundred and fifty in bonus bets when you
Speaker 2: use that promo code leading off only at bet three
Speaker 2: six five, and don't forget if you have a gambling
Speaker 2: problem called one eight hundred gambler or one eight hundred
Speaker 2: bets off. In Iowa, terms and conditions apply. What's gonna
Speaker 2: apply to me today is the Baltimore Orioles. Give me
Speaker 2: Baltimore on the run line again minus one and a half.
Speaker 2: They have covered that more than any other team in
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball this year, despite some of the recent struggles.
Speaker 2: They are going against Toronto, a team that is already
Speaker 2: looking towards the future. And how that future looks, I
Speaker 2: don't know. Plus one oh seven. You're getting on this
Speaker 2: minus one point five on the run line for Baltimore.
Speaker 2: And while we're at it, let's get Gunner Henderson going
Speaker 2: here today, total bases over one and a half minus
Speaker 2: one ten. By the way, Welsh, besides having the latter
Speaker 2: bet on snell I also had this weekend a bunch
Speaker 2: of bets on Ellie de la Cruze Dolen bases. So
Speaker 2: Joey P's a happy boy today.
Speaker 3: Be nice to be such a winner.
Speaker 2: Let's be nice. And also let's go Bobby Wit, a
Speaker 2: guy that's been the best hitter in baseball in July
Speaker 2: RBI today even money you have to get his total
Speaker 2: bases are two and a half today. It's too rich
Speaker 2: for my blood. So let's instead pivot makes some money
Speaker 2: with Bobby Witt on the even money on RBI. So
Speaker 2: those are my best bets of the day. But Welsh,
Speaker 2: what do you have for the people on this beautiful
Speaker 2: Monday afternoon?
Speaker 4: All right, well, we are going to go to Seattle
Speaker 4: in Boston. Eight and a half runs is the total
Speaker 4: for the game, and we're going to go under.
Speaker 3: We've got Nick.
Speaker 4: Pavetta, who did get blasted bounce back against the Seattle offense,
Speaker 4: and we've got Logan Gilbert, so that's why we're going
Speaker 4: to be taking the under eight and a half runs.
Speaker 4: So you've been seeing this at like seven and a half,
Speaker 4: especially in Logan Gilbert starts early on in this year,
Speaker 4: so a bounce back for Pavetta is going to be critical.
Speaker 4: But a lot of algorithm stuff has got this right
Speaker 4: around the eight, right under the eight marker. So I'm
Speaker 4: gonna go under eight.
Speaker 3: And a half.
Speaker 4: Im gonna go to Kansas City up against those White
Speaker 4: Sox run line minus one and a half. Maybe I'll
Speaker 4: even get Lucky and Robert to get pulled mid game
Speaker 4: or something like that. Even more special Alec Marsh hasn't
Speaker 4: been too bad. Kansas City has been on a roll.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be I'm gonna be putting some balance for
Speaker 4: your Bobby Wit Junior RBI for this game because i
Speaker 4: want the one and a half that's almost even money
Speaker 4: for Kansas City. And then I'm gonna take a first
Speaker 4: five under and I'm gonna go under the normal number
Speaker 4: that we usually use it four and a half. I'm
Speaker 4: gonna go three and a half under through the first
Speaker 4: five for Detroit and Cleveland. Boy Flarity, don't get traded
Speaker 4: before this, because this is Flarity and Bibby controlling the
Speaker 4: first five, So under three and a half runs for
Speaker 4: the first five for Cleveland, Detroit, Kansas City run line, Seattle,
Speaker 4: Boston under on the total.
Speaker 3: Those are my best bets.
Speaker 2: Of the day. I was gonna say, I'm waiting for
Speaker 2: the Flowerty thing to even look at that game because
Speaker 2: I want to see if you get because as soon
Speaker 2: as he doesn't or maybe maybe you just go bet now.
Speaker 2: Just go heavy on the Schoogles, not the schools on
Speaker 2: the other side of that game. What are you Cleveland
Speaker 2: side of that game with Bibby, and you should go
Speaker 2: hard to it now just in case. Maybe the schooll
Speaker 2: thing we'll see.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe we'll see.
Speaker 2: I don't know. Lots of interesting stuff going on. The
Speaker 2: deadline is looming and more bets will be looming. But
Speaker 2: make sure you're prepared for everything with the Betting pros app.
Speaker 2: Download that bad boy today, start getting smarter, not harder.
Speaker 2: Those are the best bets of the day, and don't
Speaker 2: forget to sink your sportsbooks for free only on the
Speaker 2: Betting pros app. All right, Welsh, let's take a look
Speaker 2: at the home run board. And see where we're at
Speaker 2: today after the weekend, joeyp I am there like you
Speaker 2: couldn't script this better number twenty twenty seven home runs
Speaker 2: just hanging on. Wankey Penglin at twenty eight went ahead
Speaker 2: of me. Wonky has made quite a run the top three,
Speaker 2: Larry See at thirty four along with Silent Dragon, and
Speaker 2: then be Trot and l Scale still at the top
Speaker 2: thirty six and thirty five, respectively, So it is very close.
Speaker 2: I am gonna stick with the hottest hitter in baseball
Speaker 2: in the month of July with Bobby whit for my
Speaker 2: home run today. But Welsh, where are you going for
Speaker 2: your home run? Call?
Speaker 4: Well, I'm gonna go with the hottest hitter when he
Speaker 4: is active, Royce Lewis. Give me Royce Lewis, because if
Speaker 4: he is in a ballgame, a home run is is
Speaker 4: just a swing away. So give me Royce Lewis to
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna get on the board before you go.
Speaker 3: Joey's time. The clock is ticking to the end.
Speaker 2: Of this beach. Maybe a three today.
Speaker 4: Well, if you know what, if I get three from
Speaker 4: Royce Lewis today and then I can pick up a
Speaker 4: couple more during the week. Maybe I can get on
Speaker 4: the board and pull the greatest comeback of all time.
Speaker 4: But minus money on Joe leaving before I get on
Speaker 4: the home run board is going to pay.
Speaker 3: I like nothing else about it.
Speaker 2: The trade deadline is trickling this year. I like that.
Speaker 2: I like that every day or two we've got some
Speaker 2: things to talk about, as opposed to where it's all
Speaker 2: at once. I like that so much better. I like
Speaker 2: the teams are being aggressive. I don't think the Mariner
Speaker 2: should be done by the way either. A Rose Arena
Speaker 2: a great trade for them. Go get Robert two, Just
Speaker 2: go get an offense. The Seattle Mariners are the twenty
Speaker 2: eighth ranked team in run score this year. The Oakland
Speaker 2: as forty more run score than they do. The only
Speaker 2: teams that have less run score than the Mariners the
Speaker 2: White Sox and the Marlins. Okay, and then you've got
Speaker 2: on the other side, they are the first and TMBRA.
Speaker 2: You can't keep doing this to the pictures. You need
Speaker 2: more offens. It's not just Julio and it's not just
Speaker 2: a Rose rain and you need more. Go get more,
Speaker 2: go all in. This is your window, Mariners. The Mariner
Speaker 2: fans deserve that there you go. There's my pitch to
Speaker 2: the Mariners. So that'll do it for us. But the
Speaker 2: story of the game goes on. I'm off to wah wah.
Speaker 2: We'll see you next time, kids. Peace.
