Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to Fantasy Pros MLB. This is leading
Speaker 1: off live. It is me, Joey p Joe Pisa, Pio
Speaker 1: with me of course is the Welsh, and it's all
Speaker 1: of you, the Peanuts and the cracker Jacks. Fresh off
Speaker 1: a holiday weekend, I feel good. I feel refreshed at
Speaker 1: a whole day off. I worked seven days last week.
Speaker 1: It was a long week. A whole day of grilling
Speaker 1: and playing outside, little volleyball, little badminton, a little bachi,
Speaker 1: did some wings on the grill. Welsh, we did some
Speaker 1: terriso's on the grill. Some Moho chicken. That's that nice
Speaker 1: citrus chicken marinated. Put that on the grill. It was
Speaker 1: a beautiful day of grilling and chilling. And as you
Speaker 1: can tell, I'm very refreshed. I've already off put most
Speaker 1: of the people who are back at work today watching
Speaker 1: the show here on our twitch twitch dot tv slash
Speaker 1: Fantasy Pros. You can go and join right now. We're
Speaker 1: here live Monday through Friday, every single weekday noon Eastern
Speaker 1: and you can watch us on demand of course on
Speaker 1: our YouTube channel, Fantasy Bros MLB. Well, the only downside
Speaker 1: to the weekend is I watched one of those videos,
Speaker 1: you know, where they turned the movies into little babies
Speaker 1: the characters, and now that's all my feed is. Literally
Speaker 1: any film or television thing in the last thirty years
Speaker 1: is on my feed. But they're all babies, and it's upsetting.
Speaker 2: The AI trends too, man, Like what did we have?
Speaker 2: We had the toys. Everyone's making everybody into toys, like
Speaker 2: they're just finding really great rhythms of stuff. I gotta
Speaker 2: tell you, though, the baby one's pretty great. Though, the
Speaker 2: baby ones, I don't know if I love the reenaction
Speaker 2: of you know, they're just putting in the audio of
Speaker 2: the movies. Then I do just the application. There's one
Speaker 2: where the baby is interviewing a dog and he's like,
Speaker 2: I have a serious question for you. He's like, what
Speaker 2: are you? I laugh with my teeth out like a
Speaker 2: big stupid idiot every time I see that one. But
Speaker 2: you know what, enjoy your baby.
Speaker 1: Like when they're serious movies, like a Few good Men
Speaker 1: was funny, like the good fellaveryone riot Yeah, yeah, but no,
Speaker 1: but seriously, like it's the ones that are already funny,
Speaker 1: like the water Boy, Like I don't want to see
Speaker 1: that one, Like that's not that funny, although if fat
Speaker 1: guy in a little coat from Tommy Boy did make
Speaker 1: it pretty that one was on there this morning. All right,
Speaker 1: let's get to baseball because there's so much of it.
Speaker 1: Because everything has happened in the last three days, I
Speaker 1: don't have many room home runs you got. I thought
Speaker 1: I was off to a rip roar and start with
Speaker 1: Judge on Friday night. Boy, I was like, all right,
Speaker 1: let's go. But I only got the one from him
Speaker 1: over the weekend, so that was misery. Let's talk about
Speaker 1: shoey Otani. He's pretty good. Two walks, a home run.
Speaker 1: That's back to back days with leadoff homers. So the Dodgers,
Speaker 1: despite losing two of three to the Mets, remounted yesterday
Speaker 1: they beat up Gavin Williams. More on that in a
Speaker 1: second Yamamoto two runs, three hit, six innings, seven strikeouts
Speaker 1: for Yamamoto, So the Dodgers back on track. Yamamoto. Should
Speaker 1: he be the front runner for Cy Young over Paul Skeens.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so. I mean Skeens is he's shown
Speaker 2: some signs of reality and not being a superhuman pitcher.
Speaker 2: I think has been relatively superhuman. That's also good for
Speaker 2: the market too in the betting side, if there's if
Speaker 2: there are bets to be had. But yeah, I think
Speaker 2: Yamamoto is your current front leader. I think it's it
Speaker 2: should be pretty close between those guys. It's not like
Speaker 2: the A. I mean, maybe people think the al's more competitive.
Speaker 2: I don't know how you do after that. I can't
Speaker 2: believe we're not talking about the I don't even know
Speaker 2: if it's on here. The Terry Scuble outing over this
Speaker 2: week and thirteen strikeouts full game just absolutely ballistic. I mean,
Speaker 2: Treke Scruble is like the hands down cy Young AL candidate,
Speaker 2: the candidate of candidates. And I thought I might be
Speaker 2: getting back by the way I did that preseason bet
Speaker 2: of Garrett Croche to lead the league in strikeouts. There's
Speaker 2: top five or six guys or within six strikeouts. Scooble
Speaker 2: just jumps up. Al's locked in and now there's a
Speaker 2: lot more competition. But Yamamoto should be at the top,
Speaker 2: doesn't mean he'll be there in two months.
Speaker 1: Scooble actually is now at a plus one hundred after
Speaker 1: that start over the weekend, he was more like two
Speaker 1: and a half to eighty. Max Freed also four to one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Freezy has been pretty good, and he pitches for the Yankees.
Speaker 1: Let's not forget he pitched for the Yankees. It's you know,
Speaker 1: everybody's got the media attention there, but Paul Skean's still
Speaker 1: at the top. Plus two forty on Moto plus two eighty,
Speaker 1: So it's a market worth watching, you know, elf, it
Speaker 1: is worth watching Welsh. Kevin Gosman through eight innings, limited
Speaker 1: the Rangers to just one run and a two to
Speaker 1: one win. Tommy Edmund, by the way, was resting you
Speaker 1: needs to get rested up. Hassan Kim was playing over
Speaker 1: Tommy Edmund. So last two starts for Kevin Gosmin pretty
Speaker 1: pretty good, I would say. If you look overall, the
Speaker 1: era is at three six eight over eleven starts, the
Speaker 1: whip is under one, sixty one strikeouts and sixty six innings. So, Welsh,
Speaker 1: what's been the key to the turnaround these last couple
Speaker 1: starts for Kevin Gosmin? Is it just simply spiight?
Speaker 2: It might be spid there, definitely if he's a if
Speaker 2: he's a piece of p a guy, that could be
Speaker 2: for sure. He's still inconsistent though, Like I think he's
Speaker 2: a good I think he looks really good. He's cut
Speaker 2: down the walk. So if you're like, what's the key,
Speaker 2: he's walking four point seven percent of batters. Last year
Speaker 2: it was over even seven and a half, to be
Speaker 2: a matter of fact, So I would say that's probably
Speaker 2: your biggest key. Also, looking the split finger has been ridiculous.
Speaker 2: He's underperforming against the fastball, or hitters are underperforming against him.
Speaker 2: They've got like a fifty point batting average boost that
Speaker 2: is expected. But I think also some of that is
Speaker 2: built in that Kevin Gosman is more than serviceable. But
Speaker 2: you know where he goes eight and gives up one
Speaker 2: two starts before he gives up six and goes five
Speaker 2: and two thirds. He's given up six in what is
Speaker 2: it two of his last six starts as well, But
Speaker 2: he's also had some gems in there. So Gosman is
Speaker 2: just like a I don't know if you need to
Speaker 2: ask yourself if you should start him. He's in that
Speaker 2: level of comfort, but at the same time he might
Speaker 2: blow you up a little bit with these But you know,
Speaker 2: three and a half a little over three and a
Speaker 2: half expected light Gosmin is a little bit better than advertised.
Speaker 1: Early on, Yes, I think maybe just you're right. It's
Speaker 1: not been perfect buying stretch of the means, but his
Speaker 1: last two starts especially very solid. If he could build
Speaker 1: on that, we could have a big second half or
Speaker 1: two thirds of the season were a third of the
Speaker 1: way done. We're through fifty games, so now we're really
Speaker 1: the Rubbers meet in the road. Let's get to Garza's
Speaker 1: question here. Joey, I know you're a big Sodo guy.
Speaker 1: I am, and Welsh's big Crochet guy. He is despite
Speaker 1: Mike Mayer's barbs twelve team dynasty. I made this move
Speaker 1: this weekend, trading Croschet and Taoscar for Sodo and Schwellenbach.
Speaker 1: What side would you prefer to be on, Garza, I'll
Speaker 1: tell you I want the Sodo side. I want the
Speaker 1: twenty six year old position player. Crochet is tremendous. Arm
Speaker 1: issues happen, injuries happen, multiple Tommy John's can happen. All
Speaker 1: kinds of things can happen. I'd rather take the young
Speaker 1: asset and Sodo. He's struggling in his first year as
Speaker 1: a met. Like I said, you know a million times,
Speaker 1: remember a couple of years ago, everybody was booing Lindor.
Speaker 1: Remember the thumbs down with him and Bajez, Remember that
Speaker 1: whole moment. Everybody hated Lindor. Now he's like the most
Speaker 1: beloved human being in that clubhouse. He's basically the default captain.
Speaker 1: They booed the hell out of Piazza, they hated bell Tran,
Speaker 1: and then you know, Piazza and Lindor learned to turn around.
Speaker 1: Beltre never did and they never you know, fell in
Speaker 1: love with him. Consequently, it'll be fine with Sodo, he
Speaker 1: gets it. What side do you want to be on?
Speaker 1: He got Schwellenbach too. I though it's a pretty good
Speaker 1: job getting him in that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's this is an easy Soto and Schwellenbach for me, definite.
Speaker 2: I mean, like Sodo for Crochet, straight up, I'm going
Speaker 2: to side on the hitters one hundred percent, going to
Speaker 2: side on the hitter there. But also you're getting Schwellenbach
Speaker 2: thrown into there. Schwellenbach is absolutely underperformed this year. Probably
Speaker 2: one of my more disappointing takes was like the step
Speaker 2: that he was going to take, and you know, it
Speaker 2: was good early on twenty one, but he's dropped in
Speaker 2: K percentage twenty one percent less strikeouts than innings pitched.
Speaker 2: E's okay, is giving up just more barreled contact. He
Speaker 2: just doesn't look as a lad as he did last year.
Speaker 2: And by the way, that's with increased fastball velo, so
Speaker 2: he just hasn't had that stuff. All of that, to
Speaker 2: be said, an incredible dynasty pickups. So I think that's
Speaker 2: a rousing win that you're getting for both of those pieces,
Speaker 2: because I think they're both wins. Schwellenbach over Taoscar for sure,
Speaker 2: and Soto over Crochet.
Speaker 1: Yeah at the age, especially good job Garza going back
Speaker 1: to the Blue Jays for a moment. Jeff Hoffman got
Speaker 1: the save in that game. He's up to eleven, so
Speaker 1: I'm shocked that they went back to Hoffed again this weekend.
Speaker 1: I just did not think that was gonna happen. Also,
Speaker 1: see this is why we can't have nice things. Jacob
Speaker 1: Degram exited Monday. He allowed two runs, five and a third.
Speaker 1: He's having a finger issue, so obviously, okay, that's the issue.
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem like a serious one, seems like a blister.
Speaker 1: But still he was not himself and certainly not to
Speaker 1: himself that the previous start against the Yankees we saw,
Speaker 1: so that was a little bit of a bummer, but
Speaker 1: not a bummer. Jackson Curio leading off of the home
Speaker 1: run off Crochet. Hopefully he can get things going. Crochet
Speaker 1: did strike out eleven though, two runs and six and
Speaker 1: two thirds. Hayden bird Song, Let's talk about him because
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot to discuss. He may or
Speaker 1: may not be on the trade video coming up soon.
Speaker 1: Let's get to him. So far, twelve total innings, six
Speaker 1: earned runs in three starts since moving to the rotation.
Speaker 1: He went four and a third in a lost to
Speaker 1: the Tigers yesterday. When Kyle Harrison went in the rotation,
Speaker 1: I picked him up because I'm playing the long game
Speaker 1: here that I think Harrison is the one that sticks in,
Speaker 1: not bird Song. When Verlander comes back eventually from injury.
Speaker 1: That's the game I'm playing based on what Harrison was doing.
Speaker 1: A triple A. How do you see Harrison and bird Song?
Speaker 1: Who do you think is the guy that sticks in
Speaker 1: that rotation in the next couple weeks ahead, when I
Speaker 1: assume we get Verlander back from that peg injury.
Speaker 2: H that's interesting because they've got so many options too.
Speaker 2: I tend to lean that it's bird Song because they
Speaker 2: had already given him that opportunity early on they moved
Speaker 2: him from the bullpen into the starting role, and it
Speaker 2: took an extra injury for them to move Kyle Harrison in.
Speaker 2: Though Kyle Harrison is more highly touted, I just I
Speaker 2: think some of the stuff that bird Song is Like,
Speaker 2: bird Song's got a two and a half y alright,
Speaker 2: Like you're not going to take him out of there.
Speaker 2: Expected numbers are a little bit higher. He's giving up
Speaker 2: a little bit too much contact when you look at
Speaker 2: it hard hit he's getting hit up. But you know
Speaker 2: he's lowered the walk rate since he's been in as
Speaker 2: a starter. The k's look really good. I'm going to
Speaker 2: lean on bird Song here, but I do think if
Speaker 2: Kyle Harrison is right, he will be even more fantasy relevant.
Speaker 1: See. I think you know the other part of the
Speaker 1: bird Song equation too, is do you want Harrison and
Speaker 1: there as the lefty right like I think you want
Speaker 1: the other You know, you want to mix up that
Speaker 1: rotation a little bit more potentially, but we'll see, We'll
Speaker 1: see what happens. Speaking of mixing it up, how about
Speaker 1: Adrian Hauser. What happened here in the last two starts.
Speaker 1: Was there an Adrian Hauser revenge game narrative yesterday that
Speaker 1: somehow I missed against the Mets twelve consecutive scoreless innings
Speaker 1: since making his White Sox debut. Is he becoming a
Speaker 1: streamer Welsh after these two starts in deeper.
Speaker 2: Leagues fool me once? No, I don't think we've been
Speaker 2: ever fooled really by Adrian Hauser. I mean, I'll say,
Speaker 2: I'm looking here. It was curveball and changeup. It's actually
Speaker 2: pretty crazy. I'm not sure I've seen this before. Top
Speaker 2: two pitches used sinker and forcing fastball, different variations, zero
Speaker 2: whiffs whatsoever. He got his called strikes on them, and
Speaker 2: he got massive whiff rates on his curveball and change
Speaker 2: up eighty six percent whiff rate on his change up.
Speaker 2: He did not throw those secondaries in uh in the
Speaker 2: zone at all. To me, that's gonna be a guy
Speaker 2: that you're gonna have guys not offering out at that
Speaker 2: breaking stuff and they're gonna just be sitting fastball. Maybe
Speaker 2: you know he fixed something, but he's coming. I don't
Speaker 2: buy it. I don't buy into Adrianhauser. If there's like
Speaker 2: a really poor matchup guys with really bad plate discipline
Speaker 2: that's coming up, maybe I would stream him. I don't
Speaker 2: buy it.
Speaker 1: He's going against the Orioles next on Sunday, so I
Speaker 1: kind of look at that in the streaming and I'm like.
Speaker 2: That's some bad plate discipline.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm intrigued in deeper leagues as a streamer because
Speaker 1: if he has another good start, I think, ab up now,
Speaker 1: and he has another good start against the Orioles, then
Speaker 1: I think he becomes like a legitimate waiver wire option for.
Speaker 2: It's just you don't have run support. You're not gonna
Speaker 2: have any run support.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but there's a lot of teams that have, you know,
Speaker 1: decent pictures that don't have run support. Like you can
Speaker 1: kind of take that with a grain of salt. To
Speaker 1: do it against the Mets lineup is impressive to me,
Speaker 1: Like that was the one where I was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: the first one you throw away, second one against the Mets,
Speaker 1: all right, it's a pretty good start. And then if
Speaker 1: he has another good start against the oriole something to
Speaker 1: keep in mind, transaction time pluses and minus is actually
Speaker 1: you know both probably you know, depressing in some ways. Here.
Speaker 1: The Angel sent down Kyra in Paris so remember that week.
Speaker 1: That was awesome, That was that was fun. That was
Speaker 1: a good time. Just I am sorry. I just was
Speaker 1: never buying that he could change his strives that much.
Speaker 1: It was just a magical week. And that happens. Toughy
Speaker 1: Roads hit three home runs on opening Day. And if
Speaker 1: you're saying, who's Toughy Roads, exactly exactly. The point switch
Speaker 1: also sent down to Triple A. Please welcome to the
Speaker 1: stage of Triple A Syracuse for the New York Mets genesis. Cabrero. Ye,
Speaker 1: so at least Son, all right, let's get this rookie. Lookie,
Speaker 1: Logan Henderson gets into Triple A Nashville, and I get it.
Speaker 1: It's because they have Woodroff eventually coming back and Cantan
Speaker 1: eventually coming back. And they just felt like, well, let
Speaker 1: Logan stay on his five day pace and stuff like that. Whatever,
Speaker 1: don't drop him, hold him be smart. Deal. Hall came
Speaker 1: back for him. They wanted some extra bullpen help Chase
Speaker 1: the latter remember him welsh him for a second. Yeah, first,
Speaker 1: of course he did. You guys, hung out and played
Speaker 1: majong after the game. First home run of the season
Speaker 1: for him. Now he was dealing with an injury the
Speaker 1: first two months of the season of sports hernia, which
Speaker 1: sounds kind of unpleasant and painful. But the latter, once
Speaker 1: upon a time, was one of these guys that we
Speaker 1: were really excited about. He's had a ton of injuries
Speaker 1: that have set back his development. What do you do
Speaker 1: here in these, you know, KG deeper leagues. You want
Speaker 1: to stash the latter now because that Guardian's lineup needs help.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's Kayfus, I don't know if
Speaker 1: it's the latter. I don't know if it's both. But they
Speaker 1: need help in the worst way, and they need it.
Speaker 2: Quick well, but I just don't know if he's going
Speaker 2: to be quick. So you know that he's been riddled
Speaker 2: with injuries. He is one of the worst injury prone
Speaker 2: minor leaguers out there. He just played like six or
Speaker 2: seven minor league games out here in Complex is where
Speaker 2: I saw him back up into Triple A. I love
Speaker 2: the power potential. I love the way he makes contact.
Speaker 2: He's got this short path of the bat that gets in.
Speaker 2: He can run. He just always gets hurt. To that end,
Speaker 2: though it might behoove the team to just get him
Speaker 2: up to the majors. And see what we can have,
Speaker 2: maybe get the major league training staff in there's something
Speaker 2: in a deep league. I do think he's worth looking
Speaker 2: at because of his injury prone noess, I'm not sure
Speaker 2: if I want to go and make some like big
Speaker 2: drastic move on him just because I could one hundred
Speaker 2: percent seeing him get re hurt in this. But I
Speaker 2: do think there's a possibility he could be up before
Speaker 2: Capus just because he was a cornfield, a ready guy.
Speaker 2: It's also going to be dependent on what is that
Speaker 2: they're looking for. But I do think you should start
Speaker 2: paying attention to de latter and if it's, you know,
Speaker 2: one of those big ones and you can stash, then
Speaker 2: he might be worth stashing.
Speaker 1: All right. The Marlins recalled Victor Masa Junior from Triple A.
Speaker 1: Any interest in.
Speaker 2: Him little bit probably minimal. I think of what the
Speaker 2: fantasy impact is going to be, I don't think it's
Speaker 2: going to be there what you guys want. There's some
Speaker 2: stolen based potential, there's some contact, a little bit of power.
Speaker 2: I would probably pass.
Speaker 1: The twenty seven year old John Rave. I want to
Speaker 1: like get his entrance should be all like glow sticks
Speaker 1: and fun things that would be aweso.
Speaker 2: Do you think are there still raves was more like
Speaker 2: a nineties thing for us.
Speaker 1: Oh, it was a late nineties, early two thousands thing.
Speaker 1: For sure. It was very strong in the early two thousands.
Speaker 2: But do you think they're still Like, I.
Speaker 1: Don't think so.
Speaker 2: I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I think everyone's too busy on their phones. You know.
Speaker 1: My daughters are that you know, teenage phase now, So
Speaker 1: they go to the school dances and instead of everyone
Speaker 1: just like being awkward or dancing with their friends or whatever,
Speaker 1: you know, now everyone's just videoing everyone else dancing, like
Speaker 1: all at the same time. So it's just so it's
Speaker 1: very weird. It's just a very weird vibe. Like you
Speaker 1: see all the all the you know, the phone's going
Speaker 1: at the same time with the lights, but it's just
Speaker 1: a weird interaction. It's like everyone's videoing themselves having a
Speaker 1: good time instead of actually having a good time, which
Speaker 1: I think it's hard.
Speaker 2: It would probably be like a nostalgic thing, you know,
Speaker 2: like how like, you know, twenty years ago they've been like,
Speaker 2: let's have a you know, a nineteen thirties you know,
Speaker 2: blah blah blah. They would just be like let's rave
Speaker 2: and let's have a throwback.
Speaker 1: It sounds like one of those reels, right. New York
Speaker 1: has got one of the best raves out there, but
Speaker 1: it's hard to find. If you go down three tunnels here,
Speaker 1: you're gonna find glow sticks and ecstasy. It's awesome. Blah blah.
Speaker 1: That's probably what it is. Now. We have a good
Speaker 1: time on camera here every day, but that's different. We're
Speaker 1: trained professionals. I worry about this generation.
Speaker 2: Yes, security trained.
Speaker 1: But anyway, let's talk about the worry for Bruce Bochie
Speaker 1: because he's pissed off, he's mad, and he's not gonna
Speaker 1: take it anymore. Because apparently Bob Nightingale put out. He
Speaker 1: must be a fan of the show. Because I've been
Speaker 1: saying this for months now that Kumar Rocker might be
Speaker 1: considered as a closer. No, doi, of course he should,
Speaker 1: because they have a need. He throws hard, he's a big,
Speaker 1: intimidating president, and he's only got about, I don't know,
Speaker 1: sixteen more innings left in his tank, probably all year,
Speaker 1: so why not convert him into a closer. But they
Speaker 1: got all up in arms and that happening right now.
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah, they didn't say never, just saying they
Speaker 1: didn't say never, which is very interesting. So you got
Speaker 1: to keep an eye on some of these younger players
Speaker 1: and how they can help your team, because the Rangers
Speaker 1: right now, you got to look at the standings and say,
Speaker 1: maybe if we had held on to a couple more
Speaker 1: games in the bullpen, we might be in first base
Speaker 1: on first base, first place in the American League West.
Speaker 1: Who's on a Frisbee Texas range. Yeah, I don't know,
Speaker 1: not us.
Speaker 2: I did think of you when I saw that, I
Speaker 2: immediately thought of you as the Kumar Rocker thing. But
Speaker 2: I don't know. I think they get up in arms
Speaker 2: about it because it's so not true. But I do
Speaker 2: think it's probably someone in the organization that's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: this has been talked about, but more of a long
Speaker 2: standing thing. I think Kumar Rocker could work in that.
Speaker 2: He get up his velo. He's got a devastating slider,
Speaker 2: He's got the makings of it. But the reason they
Speaker 2: probably get pissy about that is like, you don't want
Speaker 2: to throw a young pitcher that immediately because it can
Speaker 2: kind of change the whole scope very very I don't
Speaker 2: feel like that happens often. Edwin Diaz was someone that
Speaker 2: happened to with the Mariners where he was like a
Speaker 2: starter and then it was just instantly he was a
Speaker 2: closer at a.
Speaker 1: Young Mason Miller that hasn't worked out, but he was.
Speaker 2: But the transition happened like when he was in the minors,
Speaker 2: like from a starter to a reliever.
Speaker 1: It was always kind of rocker still in the miners
Speaker 1: because he's in rehabit because he's hurt. Yeah, what I'm
Speaker 1: just saying is like he's hurt already. Like that was
Speaker 1: the thing with Mason Miller too, is like health is
Speaker 1: an issue. Innings are an issue. We love the arm.
Speaker 1: Let's give him a clean night inning for a couple
Speaker 1: of days and see how that goes. And you know what.
Speaker 1: The rest is history.
Speaker 2: I don't think we'll see it. I don't think we'll
Speaker 2: see it though, even out of spite. I think they
Speaker 2: would like ad a spite, not give Bob Nightingale the
Speaker 2: satisfaction of being.
Speaker 1: Love the fight, Yeah, BD saying Stefan can tell us
Speaker 1: all about the race. Major League Baseball's hottest new club
Speaker 1: is called designated Hitter. This thing's got everything, Rob Manfred sweaters,
Speaker 1: It's got Triple A players, Genesis Cabrera, it's got walk
Speaker 1: off home runs, it's got.
Speaker 2: Everything you should do. The full sweater, the beige with
Speaker 2: the colored Stephan is one of my all time pay character.
Speaker 1: But that's Stephan character and the stories they tell about
Speaker 1: how so they would do rehearsal and then John Mulaney,
Speaker 1: who used to write that character. They would go in
Speaker 1: and John Mullaney would change all the cards and he
Speaker 1: would have all new things that he never saw before,
Speaker 1: with like little parentheses of how we should say stuff.
Speaker 1: If you know this story, that's why you get those
Speaker 1: reactions from him where the mouth covering started because he
Speaker 1: was laughing, and it just became a character thing because
Speaker 1: he knew he couldn't like keep it together because some
Speaker 1: of the things he saw coming up that he have
Speaker 1: to say, just amazing. You know what's coming up next?
Speaker 1: By the way, a little segment we like to call
Speaker 1: prospecting with the Welsh. That's right, everybody, it's time to
Speaker 1: look at the prospects we're down on the farm who
Speaker 1: we might be seeing sooner than later at the major
Speaker 1: league level. And of course it wouldn't be a prospecting
Speaker 1: show Welsh without Dun Dun Dune, Bubble Watch.
Speaker 2: Bubba Watch. We will continue watching forever. We will all
Speaker 2: be will be retiring before he comes there, Bubba Chandler.
Speaker 2: So we got to talk about it because well and
Speaker 2: like a twofold piece here, because there's also only so
Speaker 2: long that we can continue to do updates. But here's
Speaker 2: the here's the problem with the most recent update. His
Speaker 2: last start on the twenty fourth, Bubba was rattling off
Speaker 2: like six no hit innings and he finished. He did
Speaker 2: give up a couple in runs. He went six and
Speaker 2: one third two earned runs. Little walk heavy, and I
Speaker 2: think that's continuously been his problem. Five strikeouts, held batters
Speaker 2: to one seventy eight. He has held batters to under
Speaker 2: a two hundred batting average every single start the entire season.
Speaker 2: Why is he being held back? You can argue, you know,
Speaker 2: his ability to continuously throw strikes and not walk is
Speaker 2: really important. He did hit a batter in this one.
Speaker 2: I think we all know it is some type of
Speaker 2: manipulation of like a super two, because there was an
Speaker 2: opening and they brought up Brandon at Braxton Ashcraft and
Speaker 2: Ashcraft is an interesting prospect for sure. He kind of
Speaker 2: fell down the rings of like under Thomas Harrington, everything
Speaker 2: like that. But that was a that was a clear
Speaker 2: throw in our face that Bubba Chandler is not there
Speaker 2: and is not ready. Now, there could be timing issues
Speaker 2: or that they're manipulating. Is it because he is ready?
Speaker 2: You know, he has gone at least five and two
Speaker 2: of his last three.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's money, it is.
Speaker 2: It's a money situation. So the question everybody, is Bubba
Speaker 2: Chandler coming up? Yes, he is going to be up,
Speaker 2: but it is probably going to align perfectly to that
Speaker 2: Super two, which gets probably early ish June, early to
Speaker 2: mid June. I will say, there's a little bit of
Speaker 2: worry with me with the the walks. You know, he
Speaker 2: has had three or more walks in three of his
Speaker 2: last four starts, which I think is something they're going
Speaker 2: to watch, and I'm worried he's going to pull some
Speaker 2: Dylan ceases in the majors where he fights to get
Speaker 2: to five innings, but he could be striking out ten.
Speaker 2: He's the most prolific, you know, pitching prospect that we
Speaker 2: could get out there, and the top two guys of
Speaker 2: him in Roman Anthony they're there. We're just waiting for
Speaker 2: the team to push it and make it happen. Bubba
Speaker 2: Chandler watch is officially silly at this point. After those
Speaker 2: six no hit innings he was throwing. He's got to
Speaker 2: be up, and he will be up very very soon.
Speaker 1: Speaking of guys who could be up very soon, can
Speaker 1: we talk about Jack Kagleon for a second. Holy crap,
Speaker 1: this guy is absolutely on fire since getting called up
Speaker 1: to Triple A. He is hitting home runs everywhere. Well.
Speaker 1: She does not seem intimidated by the next level, and
Speaker 1: the only thing that's keeping him away also seems like
Speaker 1: a service time question, maybe just wanting to get some
Speaker 1: more at bats and exposure. Now. I understand one great
Speaker 1: week does not all of a sudden make for a
Speaker 1: call up, but if he continues to do this for
Speaker 1: the next two or three weeks, I don't see how
Speaker 1: the Royals keep him down, especially since they are so
Speaker 1: berept of offense. They're talking about a team in the
Speaker 1: bottom of the league and runs. How do they not
Speaker 1: take a look at cagle own sooner than later?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there's some things like maybe in his
Speaker 2: game that they're still worried about, like the longevity of
Speaker 2: how you know he's going to be able to maintain
Speaker 2: and hit for contact and stuff like that, but he's
Speaker 2: making it look silly right now. He's had homers in
Speaker 2: four straight games. I think one of them was a
Speaker 2: multi hit homer game. He's done nothing but absolutely crush
Speaker 2: Triple A. He's hitting three forty six with five homers,
Speaker 2: a fourteen percent k percentage, which is ridiculous, and a
Speaker 2: nine hundred slug Even better, since we're now getting some
Speaker 2: data currently averaging ninety five miles per hour on everything hit,
Speaker 2: he's already put up essentially a one fourteen max ev
Speaker 2: hit and over sixty percent hard hit rate. Here's the
Speaker 2: other plus, he's playing in the outfield. They threw him
Speaker 2: out into the outfield already, so I think that tells
Speaker 2: us a sign of how quick the timeline is going.
Speaker 2: You know the thing we talked about a couple of
Speaker 2: weeks ago where it's like, hey, he could just be up.
Speaker 2: They could move him from Double A. We might kind
Speaker 2: of look at this like that. I don't know if
Speaker 2: he plays five more games at Triple A, if the
Speaker 2: team doesn't say, screw it, let's get him up. We
Speaker 2: don't need the John Raves of the world. We want
Speaker 2: caglioon to play a little bit of outfield. He can
Speaker 2: DH he can play first, you can kind of learn
Speaker 2: on the job, and let's get his bat there now,
Speaker 2: let's get it here yesterday. I still believe he is
Speaker 2: coming up pre All Star Break. Frankly, I wouldn't be
Speaker 2: shocked if he's up before June.
Speaker 1: But he is.
Speaker 2: He's at a level right now. Where what else is
Speaker 2: it that you're looking for? It has to only be
Speaker 2: defensively because he's not striking out, he's making contact, he's
Speaker 2: hitting everything hard, and he's performing better than probably eighty
Speaker 2: percent of your major league roster right now. So Jack Caglion,
Speaker 2: we are, let's hyper hyper aggressive. The pickups before it
Speaker 2: was like, hey, let's speculate in June, and I should
Speaker 2: do it right now because no one else is going
Speaker 2: to let you hold on to him.
Speaker 1: Now you have to hoping this guy in my home
Speaker 1: league that I've been hold on to since the draft,
Speaker 1: and I'm just sticking with him right now. Just kind
Speaker 1: of looking at the roster percentage for Jack cagli on
Speaker 1: CBS currently, that's a pretty good spot because you have
Speaker 1: so many paid leagues. He's already fifty six percent rostered.
Speaker 1: So that's including all of the dynasty leagues and whatnot.
Speaker 1: So it's a guy that you better get on this
Speaker 1: trade now and stash room because at the very least
Speaker 1: he has trade value in a deal. If the Royals
Speaker 1: drag their feet like the Pirates like to do sometimes,
Speaker 1: now the White Sox they have very little incentive to
Speaker 1: drag their feet. Just bring up the kids and let
Speaker 1: them try. And Kyle Teal, who is the centerpiece of
Speaker 1: that Garrit Crochet deal, could be that next one. Let's
Speaker 1: talk about Kyle Teal, the young catcher for the White Sox.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I would say the first biggest issue is
Speaker 2: Edgar Carrow. You know, they brought up Edgar Carroll. They
Speaker 2: didn't go to Kyle Teal. But Kyle TiAl has. You know,
Speaker 2: he put up a decent amount last year in tripa A.
Speaker 2: I think it was twenty eight games. He's forty three
Speaker 2: games in here. He's hitting two ninety three average went down,
Speaker 2: He's popped back up seven homers, four stolen bases. Something
Speaker 2: that I think this team can do if you want
Speaker 2: to start reving this up, is if you optioned Andrew
Speaker 2: Baugh and you also option Tim Elko I think you
Speaker 2: can set Teal or Carol probably Teal to first base,
Speaker 2: let him be a first baseman and a secondary catcher,
Speaker 2: and not that you need to push players. Again. You know,
Speaker 2: this is a team that's not a winning team, but
Speaker 2: this is also a guy that's I think outdone Triple A. Like,
Speaker 2: why do we need He's already what is this sixty
Speaker 2: one games into triple A. I'm not sure how much
Speaker 2: further you want to keep him down. So I think
Speaker 2: he could be a first base option. Kser a little
Speaker 2: bit up, but he walks. He's hitting for average. He's
Speaker 2: pushing a three four five slash right now, seven homers,
Speaker 2: four stolen bases. Kyle Teal is really interesting, and he
Speaker 2: has upticked his Triple A from year over year when
Speaker 2: he was with Boston to White Sox. He's hitting the
Speaker 2: ball on average three miles an hour harder. He's got
Speaker 2: a one to twelve MAXIV showing pure raw power, and
Speaker 2: he's got a forty three percent hard hit rate, which
Speaker 2: is pretty good. So I think we could be seeing
Speaker 2: him at first base here in the very near future.
Speaker 1: All Right, speaking of first basement, how about Jonathan Long
Speaker 1: of the Cubs having a really good year so far,
Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy two at bats at twenty twenty five,
Speaker 1: I have a Triple A level for the Cubbies in Iowa.
Speaker 1: Six homers, thirty seven rebis, two steals for good manager,
Speaker 1: hitting three fifty five with a nine to sixty one ops.
Speaker 1: Those are some fantastic numbers. So what's the path for
Speaker 1: Long to maybe break in here with the Cubs?
Speaker 2: Well, I think the path is the biggest issue that
Speaker 2: we're staring at. But he has been one of the
Speaker 2: most prolific minor league hitters so far, hitting three fifty five.
Speaker 2: I mean that's up near the top. I think he's
Speaker 2: in the top five, maybe top three of hits across
Speaker 2: Triple A right now. Those are the type of guys
Speaker 2: that are going to just get some type of look.
Speaker 2: You would also argue, like, how long do you keep
Speaker 2: him down? He's about fifty games into his Triple A
Speaker 2: career hitting three fifty five with a four hundred slug.
Speaker 2: I think Jonathan Long's path is kind of dicey with
Speaker 2: Bush and Matt Shaw. But if Matt Shaw were to
Speaker 2: struggle and they were to push back, like Bush going
Speaker 2: to third base, Jonathan Long could come up I The
Speaker 2: problem would be positionally, I'm just not one hundred percent
Speaker 2: sure where they'd be comfortable outside of first base. So
Speaker 2: he also could be a trade candidate. The thing to
Speaker 2: pay attention to with Jonathan Longo makes a ton of contact,
Speaker 2: has some good raw power AFL last year, and whether
Speaker 2: it's a trade asset or there's some type of injury,
Speaker 2: he's going to get a look here in the neary,
Speaker 2: very near future and he might be one of those
Speaker 2: guys that hits early Cubso they just got so many
Speaker 2: guys that can play first base and Moist's Ballacenos and him,
Speaker 2: and then you got you know, Michael Bush's in the
Speaker 2: infield in Matt Shop makes it really tough. But Jonathan
Speaker 2: long is going to get that treatment where we just
Speaker 2: doesn't serve him being down much longer.
Speaker 1: Maybe he's a trade tip to get some more pitching
Speaker 1: because the Cubies are gonna need it. Is not enough
Speaker 1: for that rotation. They need a lot more help if
Speaker 1: they're going to stay competitive in that central at the
Speaker 1: top of that division. So that's this week's version of

Speaker 1: Let's get to the ups and the downs? Shall we?
Speaker 1: Welsh up Uno Suarez at a Homer yesterday in a
Speaker 1: five dozing win for the DBAX. Why at Langford drilled
Speaker 1: his tenth and Ryan Yarborough somehow continues to be really good.
Speaker 1: I'm kind of mad. I didn't pick him up just
Speaker 1: on principle that he was a Yankee pitcher. But I
Speaker 1: didn't see this coming at all. Six innings, seven strikeouts.
Speaker 1: I don't care if it's against the Angels, He's been
Speaker 1: good against everybody. How shocked are you that Yarborough has
Speaker 1: been so consistently good for the Yankees as a starter.
Speaker 2: I'm actually pretty surprised that definitely wasn't on my BINGO
Speaker 2: card that Ryan Yarborough, because Ryan Yarborough was like being,
Speaker 2: you know, a relegated like spots starter relief type of guy.
Speaker 2: But Era and expected i AI are the same twenty
Speaker 2: five percent k percentage. He's lowering his walks right now.
Speaker 2: He's giving up just absolutely no barreled contact, and he's
Speaker 2: doing it without throwing ninety miles an hour. His sinker
Speaker 2: averages eighty seven right now, which is just crazy. But yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm trying to look through sustainability. Seems weird, but I
Speaker 2: will tell you his changeup has taken a whole nother step.
Speaker 2: Last year he used it fifteen percent of the time
Speaker 2: two forty six average against with a twenty two percent
Speaker 2: whiff rate. This year, he's throwing at almost twenty two
Speaker 2: percent of the time eight batting average against and a
Speaker 2: forty six percent whiff rate forty six percent. So his
Speaker 2: changeup has completely no pun intended changed the game for
Speaker 2: him and maybe it's gonna make him be some type
Speaker 2: of viable starter. Another just oddity. He throws four pitches
Speaker 2: all the same amount of time, essentially twenty one point nine,
Speaker 2: twenty two point four, twenty two point four, twenty four
Speaker 2: point three. Those are all percentages used. That's weird. Usually
Speaker 2: see like you know, thirty five and like twenty four
Speaker 2: and bah, and it's just like four straight pitches. He
Speaker 2: throws all similarly, and it's getting a lot of whips
Speaker 2: right now, so maybe he has more sustainability. I still
Speaker 2: kind of don't buy it, but I did offer up
Speaker 2: on a couple different spots a show I did and
Speaker 2: some other things I've done that Ryan Arborough was someone
Speaker 2: I was looking at in poor matchups like against the Angels,
Speaker 2: and it worked.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely as a reliever this year, fifteen innings a
Speaker 1: four ERA, a one point three whip as a starter,
Speaker 1: twenty innings, four starts, a two point twenty five ERA,
Speaker 1: nineteen strikeouts, five walks, a point eighty five whip. I
Speaker 1: mean that's crazy. There's crazy. Stats are on Yarborough. The downs.
Speaker 1: Gavin Williams again, inefficient all over the place, four and
Speaker 1: two thirds. He's disappointing. Lars Newbar over four struck out
Speaker 1: three times. Not quite the Sinko Stinko, but he got
Speaker 1: there close. He has just won for nineteen in his
Speaker 1: last five games in the month of May. He's slashing
Speaker 1: two oh nine, two sixty seven, three thirty. Is Newbar
Speaker 1: a bye for you or just a guy coming back
Speaker 1: down to earth?
Speaker 2: And he's coming back down to earth? I got I
Speaker 2: used to love Lars Newbar but you did. I just
Speaker 2: don't know where I buy it. I think this is
Speaker 2: more of a comeback down because I also I think
Speaker 2: it's more let me better phrase it. I'm just not
Speaker 2: into buying him. So maybe he's not even going to
Speaker 2: like come back down to earth some dramatic amount, but
Speaker 2: even if he pops back up, it's not someone I'm
Speaker 2: looking to buy. Also, sustainability of anybody that's not like
Speaker 2: Brendan Donovan on that team, you know, the was it
Speaker 2: win has struggled, Walker has been stinky, like I just
Speaker 2: or Ivan Herrera, I should say Ivan Herrera and Brendanovan monsters.
Speaker 2: Everybody else's little And so I'm I'm a little indifferent
Speaker 2: about Lars.
Speaker 1: I'm a little concerned that the Cardinals, you know, run this.
Speaker 1: They're a grinding team. They don't you know, do anything
Speaker 1: particularly well. They hang in games. I give him credit.
Speaker 1: The pitching's been above expectations, but I just I don't
Speaker 1: think they can hang eventually over time. Josh Smith over
Speaker 1: four by the way, he's five for his last forty
Speaker 1: two over the last couple of weeks, so not good
Speaker 1: for him. Injuries. Stop me if you heard this one before.
Speaker 1: Brandon Woodruff. He's gonna make a rehab start tomorrow in
Speaker 1: an affiliate to be determined.
Speaker 2: I don't believe you seriously.
Speaker 1: Shane Bieber, who Welsh actually saw recently, will begin his
Speaker 1: rehab assignment on Saturday. Cal Reagan's through a competitive ballpen
Speaker 1: yesterday and it felt good. That's great. I love when
Speaker 1: you're competing, you feel good. Jordan Westberg working his way back.
Speaker 1: He's on a rehab starting today. Michael King, who was
Speaker 1: placed on the aisle with the shoulder injury. Everybody was panicking,
Speaker 1: including me about this. Shildt said that we believe it's
Speaker 1: not anything overly serious, so we'll see. Shoulder inflamation is
Speaker 1: never good. We'll figure it out. Emmit Shehan strike out
Speaker 1: five or two perfect ennings on Monday in a rehab
Speaker 1: start rookie level ball. You know, Shehn was a guy
Speaker 1: we thought, you know, it could be an interesting piece,
Speaker 1: high strikeout rate a couple of years ago in the
Speaker 1: minor leagues. Then we had Tommy John last year working
Speaker 1: his way back this year. Do you see Emma Sheehan
Speaker 1: in the major leagues this year? I don't.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I think he'll be in the majors in
Speaker 2: some capacity. It might be a bullpen, it could be
Speaker 2: a spot start. I don't think. I don't know if
Speaker 2: he gets thrown into a rotation, but at this point
Speaker 2: you might be in the rotation because if you still
Speaker 2: don't snow, you don't have Glass. Now, you don't have
Speaker 2: Rokie Suzaki. You know they're going to give him a shot.
Speaker 2: His only thing that's working against him is that I
Speaker 2: think it's going to be a long road. You know,
Speaker 2: he did two innings here in complex ball. He'll probably
Speaker 2: do another one that's close to that. Then he'll move
Speaker 2: up and it's going to be like the end of
Speaker 2: June by the time he's ready. What will the timeline
Speaker 2: be for someone like Roki Sazaki and what will it
Speaker 2: be on Glass now? Could they be back or close?
Speaker 2: So if even though I said like we could see
Speaker 2: him in the majors, I don't know if it'll be
Speaker 2: Fantasy relevant.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have a hard time believing that. Maybe next
Speaker 1: year we'll see Louis Heel bullpen on Friday, Hussey Young
Speaker 1: Kim two for two of the stolen base on Monday.
Speaker 1: I expect to see him soon. Jazz Chisholm is supposed
Speaker 1: to be starting a rehab this week. Gary Perez is
Speaker 1: gonna make another minor league rehab start on Wednesday. He
Speaker 1: could join the rotation next week, apparently that's been said.
Speaker 1: Sean Manaia will throw to hitters and live VP Thursday.
Speaker 1: Richard Fitz apparently instead of making another start, our boy
Speaker 1: Dick Fits could just start for Boston today. I don't
Speaker 1: know if that happened, but if I always say the
Speaker 1: same thing, if the Dick Fits is ready, you just
Speaker 1: stick it in there to the rotation right away, don't
Speaker 1: you think. Yep, Corey Seeger is taking an on field
Speaker 1: batting practice on Monday, and that is all the injury
Speaker 1: news we have for today. This is why you watch
Speaker 1: the show kids, because it's serious. Take this very seriously.
Speaker 1: Here is he officially starting today? Do we get that?
Speaker 2: You know? I don't know.
Speaker 1: If you don't know, you should get an update on that.
Speaker 1: I'd like to see that. Maybe all his starts should
Speaker 1: be sponsored by see That's next level marketing. That's what
Speaker 1: I would be doing if I was running these companies.
Speaker 1: You know, you never forget it. Also, you never forget
Speaker 1: Our best bets of the day with Joey b and
Speaker 1: the Welsh let's start out strong here. Nate Evaldi is
Speaker 1: on the mound for the Texas Rangers, and my god,
Speaker 1: has he been great this season. Rangers have a few
Speaker 1: bats starting to hit, like Wyatt Langford. But this is
Speaker 1: all about taking advantage of Nate Ivaldi going against the
Speaker 1: Toronto Blue Jays and up and down order in and
Speaker 1: of itself. Also on the other side, Bowden Francis in
Speaker 1: this game. So give me Texas first five minus one
Speaker 1: twenty eight today. It's my favorite bet of the day. Also,
Speaker 1: let's talk about the Atlanta Braves just minus one into
Speaker 1: two one o two. Excuse me? Was Spencer Schreider on
Speaker 1: the mound?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 1: I know it's against the Phillies and the Phillies are tough,
Speaker 1: and everyone's starting to like panic a little bit. I'm not.
Speaker 1: This is the Spencer Strider get right start. I believe
Speaker 1: he's facing Rangers. Is give me Strider over Suarez Acunia's back.
Speaker 1: He's hitting home runs all over the place. I love it.
Speaker 1: And then Tylr McGill, Tyler the Terrible who's been on
Speaker 1: a hot streak with strikeouts six and a half against
Speaker 1: the Triple A Chicago White Sox getting plus one thirty
Speaker 1: on that. I like that number, Welsh, where are you
Speaker 1: going for your best bets today? On a Tuesday.
Speaker 2: I'm going to play a bunch of K props today.
Speaker 2: I'm going to start it off with Hunter Brown six
Speaker 2: and a half strikeouts minus one ten. Really like that
Speaker 2: number for one of the potential little regression. But you know,
Speaker 2: still as a cy young type guy, Taj Bradley, I'm
Speaker 2: getting big plus money. We played some plus money K
Speaker 2: props last week and that worked well. Plus one twenty
Speaker 2: at five and a half strikeouts, and then I'm not
Speaker 2: against you on you know, Strider being able to be successful,
Speaker 2: but I'm not going to play the case with him
Speaker 2: right now. I'm going to play under six and a
Speaker 2: half at minus one thirty five. He hasn't he has
Speaker 2: not been efficient, he hasn't been getting the strikeouts in
Speaker 2: the start, and he got hurt and then the next start.
Speaker 2: We have not seen that yet. Phillies maybe could be that.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to bank on it. I'm gonna bank
Speaker 2: on the Phillies holding that down. I think they're gonna
Speaker 2: get to him. A tiny bit doesn't mean Atlanta's not
Speaker 2: gonna win the game. But under six and a half
Speaker 2: strikeouts for Spencer Strider, so over over Brown and Bradley
Speaker 2: under on Strider.
Speaker 1: All right, I like that those are the best bets
Speaker 1: of the day. Make sure you head over to Fantasypros

Speaker 1: shall we. I know it's a long show today. I'm
Speaker 1: sorry we didn't get to a lot of questions. Tomorrow,
Speaker 1: go hit us up on the YouTube. We're also gonna
Speaker 1: take mailbag questions tomorrow from our discord. But so much
Speaker 1: baseball because we haven't been here for three days. So
Speaker 1: homeer on board. I'm up to twelve over the weekend,
Speaker 1: not quite where I want to be. I was hoping
Speaker 1: to be making the board here, but Wankee Penguin drops
Speaker 1: to eighteen, the Welsh is at sixteen, Madi is at
Speaker 1: twenty tied with George far Out, and DJ at twenty one.
Speaker 1: So not as much moving as I thought there might
Speaker 1: be on the board. Again, the Sammy Sosa jersey up
Speaker 1: for grabs, and again if you want to go to
Speaker 1: our discord for the mailbag questions we're gonna start doing
Speaker 1: from there, or to make your home run calls, go
Speaker 1: to fantasypores dot com slash chat Welsh. I'll make this
Speaker 1: easy today. I'm going with Katel Marte, your boy who's
Speaker 1: been pretty hot lately for those Arizona Diamondbacks. At plus
Speaker 1: three fifty is that number? Lock it in. That's my
Speaker 1: home run call. Maybe I get two today from Kittel.
Speaker 1: What do you think?
Speaker 2: Where's your home Marte Parte, I don't mind that at all.
Speaker 2: It's definitely what he's been doing. He's been hitting.
Speaker 1: That sounds like a rave. That's a raven. Gotet when we.
Speaker 2: Had Starling mart Off everything, Yeah, that's what I had,
Speaker 2: had the Marte Parte shirts everywhere, Katel and Starling.
Speaker 1: It was a great time.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Kyle Tucker, give me a Kyle Tucker
