Speaker 3: So thanks looking forward to it, And if you're in

29
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 3: the Southeast, stay safe. Things are looking nasty.

30
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 2: Down your way.

31
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: I haven't seen what's going on.

32
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 3: Hurricanes coming through. Like there's a chance like tomorrow's gonna

33
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 3: be complete wash out of Atlanta and the Mets.

34
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 2: There's like zero percent chance that plays.

35
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 3: And right now there's about a forty percent chance of

36
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 3: rain starting about an hour there. They have a night game,

37
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 3: so's things can get interesting in the Southeast and for

38
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 3: the next couple of days.

39
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: That's what it was because I heard some people online

40
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 1: saying there's a chance for the games to get delaid

41
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: and then the Braves might get to throw sale in

42
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 1: a not Game one sixty three, but Game one sixty

43
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: two to kind of decide all the marbles. We're gonna

44
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: talk a little bit about some of the wild card

45
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: stuff in the second, but that would be quite the

46
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: advantage of getting to use Chris Sale a second time there.

47
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: Considering the season he's put together, It'll all be fine.

48
00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: It always is pretty fun following these races in the

49
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: live week of the season, and that's where our story

50
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: begins today. Talking about the Padres, this was this is

51
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: pretty cool. You don't usually see this, but they punched

52
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,239
Speaker 1: their ticket to October with a game ending triple play

53
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: to leave Shoheo Tani in the on deck circle. But

54
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: were you watching this one? Where were your thoughts on

55
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: all of this crazy situation that happened.

56
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 3: I was recording last night' Bubba and the Bloom had

57
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 3: the game on in the background, and I was kind

58
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 3: of looking at it, like what just happened there, kind

59
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 3: of confused, And then we finished our recording like right

60
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 3: about that same time, and I got like a million

61
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 3: alerts on my phone about Padres clinched the postseason, the

62
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 3: ending with a triple play, all this stuff, and it

63
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 3: was absolutely amazing, and it was poetic justice that one

64
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 3: of the worst managers in baseball doesn't bunt in that scenario,

65
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 3: and he had to bunt on for the first pitch apparently,

66
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 3: and then wiped it off after the first pitch and

67
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 3: then that took place.

68
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: I'm just I say it, not just.

69
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 3: I know it's a Giants Dodgers thing, but Dave Roberts

70
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 3: has cost that team so many big games down the line.

71
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 3: Like he is, he's been blessed with the great with

72
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 3: the great team, and to see it end like that

73
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 3: night just made me laugh so much. For the years

74
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 3: of everyone telling me how great the Dodgers are and

75
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 3: the Giants suck. But we have three World Series, like

76
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 3: legit World Series in the last you know, fifteen years,

77
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 3: unlike the Dodgers.

78
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: The rivalry is a live and well folks. But yeah,

79
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: I have heard a lot of criticism of Dave Roberts.

80
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: It seems like every year we get down of this time.

81
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 1: And I don't know how true it is because I

82
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 1: don't focus on it so so much, not being a

83
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: California guy, but they're not usually as prepared as they

84
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: maybe should be, and it definitely definitely feeds into some

85
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: of the rivalry. There for sure is Bubba rooting for

86
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: the Padres. Joseph in the chat is wondering.

87
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 3: I am a big Padres fan. I wouldn't mind seeing

88
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 3: the Dbacks, but the Giants have been beating them down

89
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 3: the last two nights, which made me laugh because I

90
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 3: did not see that coming. But if I had to

91
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 3: pick an NL team, it's Phillies and Padres for me.

92
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 3: Those are the two that I'm really really pulling for.

93
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 3: It's hard not to love the Phillies team. Man, there's

94
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 3: so much fun like the last few years in the

95
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 3: postseason watching them celebrate there a blast. But this Padres

96
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 3: team's cool too, Like there's a lot to like there

97
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 3: with them. So yeah, I'm rooting for pretty much eleven

98
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 3: teams not named the Dodgers should win, and I'm a fan.

99
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: As long as the World Series doesn't go back to

100
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: Chavez Ravine, Bubba will be a happy fella at the

101
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: end of the season. I do want to talk a

102
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: little bit about some of these final wild card spots

103
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: because we are down to just a few games left.

104
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the American League to start off here, Buba,

105
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: just briefly, because we'll get into the fantasy stuff. But

106
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: what do you expect to happen with those final two

107
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 1: wild card spots? Do you expect it to be as

108
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: it currently says? The Tigers and the Royals, the Twins

109
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 1: and the Mariners also have a chance, and I guess

110
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: the Red Sox, if they run very pewer here, could

111
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: have a mathematical chance. How do you see those final

112
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: two spots breaking down?

113
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 2: Though?

114
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 3: I think the Tigers, man, this is like a momentum thing.

115
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 3: We've seen it year after you Like, I'm not saying

116
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 3: they going to the World Series like the Dbacks were,

117
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,559
Speaker 3: but we all it feels like every year we get

118
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 3: like one team that just runs so pure at the end.

119
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 3: They find their way in the postseason. Now, how you

120
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 3: know far does it get from there?

121
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 2: Who knows?

122
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 3: But I think the Tigers are getting in for sure,

123
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 3: and Oils had the advantage on them technically. But if

124
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 3: you go to fangrafts, Tigers eighty seven and a half percent,

125
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 3: Royals eighty two percent, So it looks like they're pretty

126
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 3: much locked in.

127
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 2: You mentioned though, that.

128
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 3: That's actually for the Yeah, no, they're pretty much locked

129
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 3: into the playoffs right there. The Twins have a shot,

130
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 3: like you mentioned, and you're looking at the Red Sox,

131
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,479
Speaker 3: it's like a slimmer of a whole, like zero point

132
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 3: seven percent right now for the Red Sox. So the

133
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 3: Twins are gonna need a miracle. I feel like it's

134
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 3: a Tiger's Royal situation there, which is fun for baseball.

135
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 3: Two new teams we haven't seen in a while. The

136
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 3: Royals have fallen off of late, because if you would

137
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 3: have had this question early September, you would think they'd

138
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 3: have a chance to like make a little noise in

139
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 3: the postseason. But they got the pitching yacht Reagans, you

140
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 3: got Lugo and walk is no slouch. That'll keep you

141
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 3: in a lot of playoff games. But yeah, Tigers, come

142
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,279
Speaker 3: on Treek Scouble game one of a playoff game, Like,

143
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 3: let's go.

144
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 2: That's pretty fun stuff.

145
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: I think the question at this point is who's getting

146
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: the ball in Game two? I think that's the only rule.

147
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 3: Oh that's the Yeah, it is Kyder Montero, the guy

148
00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 3: you want to go to battle with, Like that is

149
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 3: like brand Herder's actually probably been the best number two

150
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 3: option of late. And that's the conundrum, and that's why

151
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 3: certain teams just can't go the distance.

152
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 2: Like if the Tigers went the.

153
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 3: Whole dang thing, that's like beyond proving any analytic person correct,

154
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 3: So that'll be nuts. But yeah, I just I'd love

155
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,279
Speaker 3: to see schools like the old theory, like would be

156
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 3: great to see Trout in the playoffs. Like there's certain

157
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 3: players I just they deserve the big stick once in

158
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 3: a while. And the year Schoobl's having right now. I

159
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 3: know we've talked about it all the time on this show, Like, dude,

160
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 3: just put them on the stage for one game. Let

161
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 3: them have it, and I'll give the Tigers fans credit.

162
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 3: They're coming out in droves. I saw a tweet from

163
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 3: a Beat writer today the weekend series in Detroit. It's

164
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 3: almost all sold out already, all three games in Detroit.

165
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 3: Like that's insane for the Tigers. So it's cool to see.

166
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 1: And our friend Marty Tallman, I don't know if you

167
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: saw yesterday you wont himself some free tickets courtesy of

168
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 1: the Tigers. So good for him to get out there

169
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: and support We got a lot of Detroit.

170
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 2: The Tigers get it.

171
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 3: The Tigers get it man, Like they're a franchise that

172
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 3: doesn't fill out the place. They're not that they don't

173
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 3: spend a lot of money, but hey, we need to

174
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 3: push these young kids to go. Here's some tickets. Like

175
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 3: they gave out a bunch. That's that's smart baseball. Unlike Pittsburgh.

176
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 3: That is smart baseball.

177
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: Oh we'll talk a little bit about in the pocketbooks

178
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: a little bit later on. I think that Minnesota might

179
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: have a chance just based on the schedule. They have

180
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: a couple of games left against the Marlins and then

181
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: they'll be facing the Orioles to end the season, who

182
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: won't really be playing for so much. Where with Kansas City,

183
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: you know, they got to end up facing the Braves,

184
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: who will be playing for a lot. So I don't

185
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: think it's set in stone that final spot there. I

186
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 1: thought the Twins, like a couple of weeks ago, I

187
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 1: would have thought that they had a chance to maybe

188
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: be a World Series team. Really good offense, solid three

189
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 1: headed monster in the rotation, good bullpen. But they have

190
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: really really fallen apart here in terms of the National League. Here,

191
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: it's the Mets, the Diamondbacks, and the Braves are the

192
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: only teams that are really competing for those final two spots. Bubba,

193
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit worried for the Mets. What do

194
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: you think is gonna happen?

195
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 2: Though?

196
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 1: I feel like they're probably gonna be the odd man

197
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: out based on the way things are trending. But what

198
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: do you think.

199
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's rough, but I still think I just it

200
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 3: depends on how this whole rain thing plays out. I

201
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 3: know that's kind of a cop out answer. Atlanta, like

202
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 3: there is all these jokes on Sunday, They're going to

203
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 3: their house of horror. They stink in Atlanta, and dude,

204
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 3: they got smoked like they were red hot coming in

205
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 3: got smoked on Tuesday night. Schwelly's a beast. There's no

206
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 3: doubt about that. But yeah, you got sale and you

207
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 3: got freed coming up like they have their three best

208
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 3: lined up to face the Mets. I still have a

209
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 3: weird feeling the Mets get through, I really do. I

210
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 3: agree it's almost a coin toss. Like if you look

211
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 3: at fangrass projections, Mets are seventy seven percent, Braves are

212
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 3: seventy percent. I think it's closer than that. I think

213
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 3: it's like that number probably flips if the Braves win

214
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 3: the night. Like it's that simple. It's that close of

215
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 3: a coin toss situation. And you're mentioning the schedule coming

216
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,839
Speaker 3: up here, you got like you said, Atlanta gets Kansas

217
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 3: City this weekend. Singer Luga Reagan's you know, not a

218
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 3: cakewalk scenario there and that's if that stays in line,

219
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 3: of course, and then you got this Mets team that

220
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 3: hopefully isn't reeling after this, but they get Milwaukee who

221
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 3: might be off. You got ray montoss Myers, their pitchers

222
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 3: aren't going deep. I think Mets are set up for

223
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 3: a better weekend, let's put.

224
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 2: It that way.

225
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, we've also talked about how the Brewers are probably

226
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: going to be facing They're probably through with the drinking

227
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: for now, with the celebrating, but they're not playing for

228
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: much at this point. So if you don't see the

229
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 1: A team lineups, if you see a starter get scratched

230
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 1: or something there, don't be shocked. It could really go

231
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 1: either way. In the National League, with the Braves and

232
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: the Mets, they always tend to play each other in

233
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: the final week of the season, which does make things

234
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: pretty fun. Sticking in Atlanta, Spencer Schwellenbach had a great

235
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: final start of the season, the kind of cap off

236
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 1: a breakout year for him. Really, seven innings of one

237
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 1: run ball with four strikeouts. He finishes up with a

238
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: three forty seven ERA and one zero seven WHIP over

239
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 1: twenty games starts. I kind of want to pair him

240
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 1: with the next guy tanner Byby but a great year himself.

241
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: Seven innings of one run ball himself yesterday, and he'll

242
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: finish with the exact same era of three forty seven

243
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 1: with a one to twelve whip. So just thinking about

244
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,599
Speaker 1: both of these guys separately or together, I kind of

245
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: wanted to frame them together because I think there's a

246
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 1: chance they go pretty close in drafts next season. What

247
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: are your thoughts on the pair, Bubba, and who would

248
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,079
Speaker 1: you be more interested in trusting in twenty twenty five

249
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: drafts as probably your SP two. I would imagine I'm.

250
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 3: Still a Tanner Biby guy, but it's probably more just

251
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 3: biased because I was all in on Biby this year.

252
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 3: I wrote articles on him, and I got a lot

253
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 3: of pushback early in the preseason, like I was over

254
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 3: excited on him, and he made the adjustments and it

255
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 3: was great to see.

256
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 2: As no downplay on Schwellenbach.

257
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 3: Like he's absolutely amazing as well, but it's kind of

258
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 3: like the whole are you paying for the career year?

259
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 2: Is this his career year?

260
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 3: A lot of questions to be said about Schwellenbach there.

261
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 3: It's quite the jump. He took massive increase in the

262
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 3: innings as well. I'm gonna lean with the Biby camp

263
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 3: on this one. He's the ace of their staff, so

264
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 3: to be your SP two is pretty sweet. Now, Schwelly

265
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 3: is a great to option b if that's how it

266
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 3: plans out. But I'm going to buy you on this one.

267
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: Do you think do you think they will go close together?

268
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 1: I know it's way too early, but it feels like

269
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,959
Speaker 1: they'll probably be in a similar type of range in

270
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: terms of sps and overall of my am I crazy there.

271
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 2: Now, they'll be pretty close.

272
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 3: Like Bibby'll probably be around five or six give or

273
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 3: take on, maybe maybe four if he creeps up, but

274
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 3: he'll be an SP and like Schwellenbuck in the early

275
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 3: draft I did was tenth round and we all said

276
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 3: a that was that was late August. Like, he's gonna

277
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 3: move up and he keeps pitching better and better. He

278
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 3: should be a fifth or sixth round pick when all

279
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 3: things are said and done. So yeah, they should be

280
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 3: going quite quite close together for sure.

281
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: That'll be an interesting one to monitor. I think it's

282
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: just because the eras are ending on the same number.

283
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 1: I figured it was a decent discussion point. But I

284
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: think Bouten Francis is also somebody that deserves a bit

285
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: of our time. I don't know if we've talked too

286
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 1: too much about him on the show. I'm sure he's

287
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: come up, but I think he deserves a little segment

288
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: here another shout out outing from him. Yesterday, I'll be

289
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 1: at just five innings. They could have probably let him

290
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: go a little bit longer. I think it was like

291
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: seventy one seventy two pitches, but we'll take it over

292
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: the second half. One point eight zero ERA and a

293
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: point six zero whip. It's unbelievable type of numbers that

294
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:48,839
Speaker 1: you'd say, if you just saw those numbers, you'd think,

295
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,439
Speaker 1: all right, I was de Gram, maybe that was Strider,

296
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 1: but the point six whip is just absurd. He's gonna

297
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: finish with a three to three ERA and a point

298
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: ninety three whip over one hundred and three and two

299
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 1: thirds innings. Insane to think he'll get one or two

300
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: down ballot Czy Young votes after this performance. I know

301
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 1: the innings are a bit lacking, but he's been the

302
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: best pitcher in baseball in the second half of the season.

303
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 1: I think he might get one or two. But is

304
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 1: that just the Toronto Homer popping out in me.

305
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:19,079
Speaker 3: No, like baby, No, I do think he should get

306
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 3: some if it's either third fourth place votes, he should

307
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 3: get some acknowledgment on the cy Young you know there's

308
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 3: gonna be there should be one hundred percent going to

309
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 3: one guy in Detroit and then you fill in the

310
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 3: blanks afterwards on that. So I don't see an issue

311
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 3: with Francis getting some you know, third fourth rate round

312
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 3: type stuff.

313
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 1: I don't know how interested I'm gonna be heading into

314
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: the next season. I feel like he's gotten a lot

315
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: of babbit block and there will be some concerns for

316
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 1: me taking him too early next year. But man like this.

317
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: It's a shame that the Blue Jays wasted this in

318
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: a season where it didn't matter. But one of the

319
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: best stretches I've ever seen from a starting pitcher, and

320
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 1: maybe that will ever see from a starting pitcher. Point

321
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: point six whip and like said, unbelievable stuff he did

322
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 1: for your ratios. We got a question here regarding a

323
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 1: couple of pitchers. How would we order Schwellenbach, Yuri and

324
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:12,079
Speaker 1: Sandy al Contra for next season? So Sandy start the

325
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: year Schwelley's healthy, but I think i Contra's healthy heading

326
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: in helps. Sorry sorry, but I think al Contra is

327
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: kind of close to healthy now, so I think he'll

328
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 1: be ready to start the year. But he sounds like

329
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: you're Schwellenbach over al Contra.

330
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 3: Schwellenbach because he finished the year and Contra did not

331
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,319
Speaker 3: throw this year, So I'd have all Contra second yeary third.

332
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 3: That's my only difference. Like al Contra is, you know,

333
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 3: maybe the best. I've always been a little down on

334
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 3: him because he's a he has to accumulate, So how

335
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 3: much is he gonna accumulate next year is the question.

336
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna go Schwellenbach just because he finished this

337
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 3: year on the mount.

338
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: I think that's totally fair. Yeah, when you see guys

339
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: get hurt in the year or they don't throw at all,

340
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 1: it definitely makes you worry wonder what they're gonna look

341
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 1: like coming into next season. I think I'm probably on

342
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 1: the same page. I wouldn't really have much of a

343
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,439
Speaker 1: problem going Yuri over Sandy just because of some of

344
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 1: the things you meant, like the strikeouts, the volume concerns.

345
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: But like Angelo said here, Yuri was kind of born

346
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: on the injured reserve. It's hard to know when he's

347
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 1: going to be healthy or not. He's dealt with a

348
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: lot of stuff considering what is he twenty one, Like,

349
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 1: he's gone through quite a bit at this point.

350
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, very very young and talent's there's got to somehow

351
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 3: stay healthy.

352
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: Man.

353
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 3: It's an issue with the Elizardo Yuri al Contra Garrett like,

354
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 3: that's almost every picture in Miami. He's had issues and

355
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 3: must be a Florida thing. Tampa Bay and Miami have

356
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 3: some fun stuff with the with the elbows and.

357
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: The Dodgers who had at some points, to say, two

358
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: whole rotations with the pitchers on the IL. They had

359
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: like nine pitchers. Good pictures on the IL at certain

360
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 1: points this season. Let's change gears and talk about some hitters,

361
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: and we'll start in your neck of the woods, Bubba

362
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: with Elliott. Is it Elliott? I think it's Elliott, right,

363
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: Elliott right, it's Elliott.

364
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was jelln Ryan a ways back when I

365
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 3: went to the Giants game for the first time early

366
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 3: this season and they announced him in warm ups as

367
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 3: Elliott Ramos, I was like, what, yeah, so now it's

368
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 3: always it's Elliott from here on out.

369
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: I still hear Elliott, he I hear all these kind

370
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 1: of names, but it's Elliott. It just imagine that the

371
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: h is not there, essentially, But he went four for

372
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: five yesterday. It is twenty third homer of the season.

373
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: Looking at a two seventy batting average, one hundred and

374
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: twenty one WRC plus almost an eight hundred ops and

375
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: a fairly fairly small sample size of one hundred eighteen games.

376
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 1: It's fairly small, but it's also fairly large, depending on

377
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: how you want to look at it. What's your interest

378
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: level heading in the next season, Bubby, You've got to

379
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: watch him up close and personal this year. Is he

380
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: actually a breakout star or is this something that we

381
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: should probably be wary of in drafts next year.

382
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 3: I'm a fan. I'm a big fan of what we

383
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 3: saw this year. He was a big time prospect, one

384
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 3: of our top prospects. For a while, people thought he failed,

385
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 3: kind of like Luis Montos, and maybe Mantos figures it out.

386
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 3: It's like, I know, I've said it on this show

387
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 3: in mini shows. Young players need reps. It's just that simple.

388
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 3: And you know they finally just ran with him. He

389
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 3: had a couple of hot streaks, he had a couple

390
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 3: of slumps. They stuck with him, and he's put together

391
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 3: a really good season. He's a staple in the lineup.

392
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 3: He's going to be the starting left fielder for hopefully

393
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 3: years to come in San Francisco. And is he going

394
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 3: to be an MVP? I don't know if he has

395
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 3: that level, But could the dude be a two to

396
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 3: seventy hitter that gets you close to thirty home runs

397
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 3: each year? Like that's legit who Elliott Ramas can be.

398
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 2: And I'm a big fan of him going forward.

399
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 3: ADP wise gets interesting because there's a lot of outfielders

400
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 3: in play there, but he could be a very very

401
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 3: strong asset. Just the speed He'll have some but not

402
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 3: ton so that's what's will probably push him down a

403
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 3: little bit. But I think everything else pretty solid. I

404
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 3: think he's got one hundred and fifty combined runs in

405
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 3: RBI is too. Like he's putting together a pretty strong

406
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 3: season for the Giants. And that's why I tweeted last

407
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 3: night when he hit his home run, I said, I

408
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 3: know schemes, I know Jackson Merrill. I just hope Elliott

409
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 3: gets a few rookie of the Year votes to acknowledge

410
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 3: how good he actually has been this season.

411
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: He's been fantastic, And I think part of that Once

412
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: you said that, I went and looked at the at

413
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: the betting odds. In the National League, it's just such

414
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: a stacked field, and in the American League, it's like

415
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: it almost feels like it's gonna go to somebody by

416
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: defaults like, Okay, I guess it's gonna be Heal, I

417
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: guess it'll be Cows, or I guess it'll be Wells

418
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 1: or whoever. In the NL, there's like five or even

419
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: more legitimate Rookie of the year's in most season Skeiins

420
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 1: Merrill absolutely a lot of seasons getting it done, Cheerio

421
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: in a lot of seasons is getting it done. And

422
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 1: then showed at Imanaga, who probably will end up on

423
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,120
Speaker 1: some cy young ballots, but the fact that he's thirty

424
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 1: one years old probably takes some of that away. But

425
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: it is a stacked field in the National League, and

426
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 1: somebody else who could potentially be there in a less

427
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 1: stacked season, Tyler Fitzgerald, who I believe still has rookie

428
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 1: eligibility even though he's a little bit older. I think

429
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 1: he's twenty six, but hell of a season he's put

430
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: together in just ninety two games, and he had a

431
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 1: home run yesterday, which is partly whyse on the sheet,

432
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 1: but also we're starting to wrap up the year a

433
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: little bit. I wanted to evaluate things as a whole

434
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 1: now to some extent, a two eighty seven batting average,

435
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:42,360
Speaker 1: fifteen homers and seventeen steals over ninety two games that

436
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,719
Speaker 1: pro rated out over a whole season is probably not

437
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 1: Probably it is a first round type of player. But

438
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 1: you're looking at a high strikeout rate. You're not looking

439
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 1: at a great track record. Not a bad one, but

440
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: not somebody that you would have thought would be a star.

441
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 1: What's your interest level in Fitzgerald and would you prioritize

442
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 1: him over Ramos? I no different positions in all but

443
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: the two Giants assets there. Where do you put them?

444
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 3: Obviously the lazy answer depends on your format. Five outfielders,

445
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 3: probably Ramos if you need speed, Fitzgerald, Like I took

446
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,199
Speaker 3: Fitzgerald around eleven of that too early draft because I

447
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 3: want twenty twenty upside at my middle infield, and I

448
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 3: understand the strict right, it's gotten better and this is again,

449
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 3: a young player getting tight like regular reps. He's the

450
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 3: starting shortstop. He's going to be the starting short stop

451
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 3: next year. He plays pretty good defense. He's been in

452
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,479
Speaker 3: a pretty good slump of late. They kept running him

453
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 3: out there. They's moved him down the order, kept running

454
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 3: them out there. Matt's starting to wake up again, like

455
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 3: young players will do this, and I think there is

456
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,679
Speaker 3: a lot of talent trying not to be a home run.

457
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:38,959
Speaker 3: If anybody's listened to me long enough, I'm very narcissistic

458
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 3: when it comes I'm very very angry when it comes

459
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,360
Speaker 3: to my giants, Like there's no sugarcoating that. But when

460
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 3: I see like development, that's something I like to see.

461
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 3: Ramos has developed. Fitzgerald has developed wisely even this time around.

462
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 3: Starting look like he took a lefty deep yesterday. Like

463
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 3: he's starting to look like a little bit better ballplayer.

464
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 3: I'm not all in on him yet, but the future

465
00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 3: is not as bleak as I once thought. We'll see

466
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 3: this stuff signed free agents, and that's a whole nother podcast.

467
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 3: But yeah, I'm very optimistic when we're seeing with Fitzgerald.

468
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 3: I think if you want like a power speed guy,

469
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 3: say we talk about how shortstop drives up. If you

470
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 3: miss out on shortstop, not a bad plan, be.

471
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: Not about at all. And they've already locked up Matt Chapman.

472
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 1: Let's see if they open up the pocketbooks a little

473
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 1: more this offseason. I'm sure Bubba is hoping for it,

474
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:21,120
Speaker 1: but I want to shout out Ryan in the chat

475
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 1: here real quick, thanks showing Bubba won the ship a

476
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,439
Speaker 1: few weeks ago and joined the sweet taste of victory.

477
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: You enjoy that, Ryan, enjoy the last couple weeks of

478
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 1: the season, or couple weeks, a couple of days of

479
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: the season at this point, hanging that banner, it will

480
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 1: fly forever for you, my friend. Let's talk about Michael

481
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,919
Speaker 1: Harris before we jump into some injuries. He's been on

482
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: an absolute ridiculous heater, multiple hits in five consecutive games,

483
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: and in four of them he has three hits. Over

484
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 1: the last two weeks, he's hitting four oh seven, unbelievable stuff.

485
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: I feel like he's probably gonna be somebody that I

486
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 1: you know, I've kind of gone back and forth, interested,

487
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 1: not that interested, but it's hard to look at what

488
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,639
Speaker 1: he's done as of late and think that the Braves

489
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 1: will be fully healthy next year and not be interested.

490
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: Do you think Michael Harris is going to go bob

491
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,679
Speaker 1: a third round or so? And would you have interest

492
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 1: where he is going to go?

493
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 2: You think, yeah, he's a third rounder for sure. It's

494
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:08,479
Speaker 2: a lot of that.

495
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 3: I think you know, everyone's gonna see the shiny new toy.

496
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 3: They're gonna go Jackson Marrow, They're gonna go Jackson Curio

497
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 3: and those things where last year that's where Michael Harris

498
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 3: was going. So it's just going to push him down

499
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 3: by default. And it's like again, it's I keep saying

500
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 3: I want the back end round one right now. A

501
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 3: lot can change. Obviously it's September twenty fifth, for crying

502
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 3: out loud, but it's so loaded you get like two

503
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 3: great picks right there. In reality, you can get Michael

504
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 3: Harris as well, like you could set up for like

505
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 3: a just thunderdome in the back end there. So I

506
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,159
Speaker 3: think he will fall just by default because there's so

507
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 3: many good players and it could be a nice little

508
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 3: bounced back spot because you're not expecting the you know,

509
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 3: massive batting numbers, but the power speed's legit and the

510
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 3: only question is a coon He'll be back where does

511
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 3: Harris hit? That's the million dollar.

512
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 1: Question, Hitt. And second, I would love it if he's

513
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,479
Speaker 1: down at ninth. I wouldn't hate it, but definitely wouldn't

514
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 1: like it as much. The argument is he would like

515
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: turn over for a Kunya and I'll be and whoever else.

516
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: So it's not terrible. We've seen him produce from that

517
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,880
Speaker 1: spot before. I'd like to see him at the top

518
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 1: of the order, though, but just an incredible season. And

519
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 1: to your point, the outfield in the third and fourth

520
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 1: round next year is gonna be pretty good. You know

521
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna be able to double tap a couple of

522
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:14,680
Speaker 1: those guys. Hell, even at the back end of the

523
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: first you might be able to take four outfielders in

524
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: your first four picks. Ye Julio, Carrol Surio, Mike Harris

525
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: hypothetically if you're drafting it like the back end of

526
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: the first round. I don't know that if that's something

527
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 1: I'd want to do necessarily, but it doesn't sound too

528
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 1: shabby as of right now. If you're able to get

529
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 1: all four of those guys.

530
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 3: No, man, it's the old philosophy I've been trying to

531
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 3: instill the last couple of years and I bring it

532
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 3: up on a mile out of my shows is we

533
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 3: got to stop focusing so much on positions. Yes, you

534
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 3: need to fill a roster, but in the end, it's

535
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 3: the final stat line the matter. So these are the

536
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 3: four best players, all right, let's rock and roll. Like

537
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:46,640
Speaker 3: two years ago, I think it was a labor draft.

538
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 3: Ryan took five outfitters in his first seven picks, and

539
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 3: he was not happy on the live stream. He won

540
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,160
Speaker 3: the league. He won the league. So you just build

541
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 3: the best team. That's that's why Fitzgerald comes into play

542
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 3: now at stuff like that.

543
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, it's something you know. Even just last year,

544
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,360
Speaker 1: like Al two Vea and Bryson Stott were both targets

545
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 1: of mine, and there came some drafts where I was like,

546
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: especially early on, I was like, I have Al two

547
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 1: v I don't need to take Stott. Throw him in

548
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:11,639
Speaker 1: the middle endfield for all. I mean that wasn't like

549
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 1: he was an amazing player this year. But throw him

550
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 1: in the middle enfield, throw him in the utility spot,

551
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 1: wherever it is you can find room. It's why the

552
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: Otawani dh clogging that whole thing up. I think it's

553
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,640
Speaker 1: kind of gone with the Dodo Bird over the last

554
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: couple of years between him and what Ozun has done

555
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 1: as well. I don't think people mind clogging up to

556
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: DH with those type of numbers. But let's go onto

557
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,920
Speaker 1: the injury segment. We'll talk Nester to Cortes. He's gonna

558
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 1: undergo an MRI on his elbow on Friday. Does not

559
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: look like we're gonna see him again in the regular season, Babba,

560
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 1: I think you can, probably if you're in a daily

561
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:39,880
Speaker 1: league at this point, just cut bait and pick somebody

562
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 1: else up.

563
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 3: Yes, the only weird caveat i'd take just wait for

564
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 3: the results because he's still technically scheduled to pitch tonight,

565
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 3: so for some reason, it's just like a minor thing

566
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 3: where they move him back to day. You're gonna want that.

567
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 3: Someone in the chat way early on, I think was mentioning.

568
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 3: They asked him, was potit starting right now? It's rumored

569
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 3: to be Marcus Stroman jumping in there for that star

570
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 3: he's been on the bullpen. But yeah, I just yes,

571
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,919
Speaker 3: if the result obviously comes back negative, you drop in

572
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,360
Speaker 3: Nester Cortez one hundred percent on board there, But as

573
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 3: wonky as things are right now, just sit back because

574
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 3: the Orioles are not good versus lefties of late, so

575
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 3: somehow you getting nester.

576
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 2: I'd run with it.

577
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,439
Speaker 1: Second half Orioles have been really, really not good. I

578
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,160
Speaker 1: want to pair a I want to pair a couple

579
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,360
Speaker 1: of guys together here, Francisco Lindor and Jordan Alvarez. They're

580
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: both I mean, for Lindor it's in play that he

581
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 1: could come back today, not sure if it's one hundred

582
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 1: percent going to happen. Jordan Alvarez hoping to get back

583
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: in the lineup this weekend. I guess my question is

584
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 1: for those people playing in weekly or semi weekly lineups.

585
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 1: If you're on the NFBC, you got to set a

586
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,880
Speaker 1: Friday through the weekend lineup. Are you putting these guys

587
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 1: in if we don't have any clarity, like let's say

588
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,959
Speaker 1: they have to miss Friday, are you putting them in?

589
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: Specific it looks like Lindora'll be back. I guess this

590
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,919
Speaker 1: is specifically a Jordan Alvarez question. How confident do you

591
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,160
Speaker 1: feel that he is going to play over the over

592
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 1: the weekend.

593
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,680
Speaker 3: Well, I'll give you this much, because about maybe five

594
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:03,920
Speaker 3: minutes before we started recording chan roam of the Houston

595
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 3: Astros beat reporter said, jord On Alvarez and Chas McCormick

596
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 3: will not accompany the Astros to Cleveland. They'll stay back

597
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 3: and train with the team. So that answers your question.

598
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 1: So that puts a bow on his season. I guess yes. Okay,

599
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,359
Speaker 1: So Jordan Alvarez, get him out of your lineups. I

600
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 1: guess that's that's a tough one to do it this

601
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 1: time of the year. But if he's not gonna play,

602
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,439
Speaker 1: he's not gonna play. Lindor looks a little rosy, or

603
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: somebody in the chat saying that he grabbed a bat

604
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 1: last night, I think that. I don't think he actually

605
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 1: had an at bat. I think you mean, like in

606
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,360
Speaker 1: the dugout he grabbed a bat or something.

607
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 3: He think he was getting loose. I'm just worried with

608
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:36,680
Speaker 3: the way the weather's so bad.

609
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 2: What are you doing?

610
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 1: That's another point. Yeah, Like if he, you know, takes

611
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: a bad swing and strains something or something, plus you

612
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: gotta worry about the weather. Although it is, you know,

613
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,919
Speaker 1: the guy who's gonna come second in MVP voting, So

614
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: it's not somebody that you really want to put on

615
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,400
Speaker 1: your bench, but it's a. It's a tricky situation if

616
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,639
Speaker 1: we don't have an update or we probably will. But

617
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 1: let's say Friday he's scratched. I think he's probably somebody

618
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,360
Speaker 1: I'm sitting for the weekend.

619
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, No, it's definitely an up in the I

620
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,199
Speaker 3: set him for the first half of the week, so

621
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,960
Speaker 3: second half I need to see a lot more positive

622
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 3: news in that direction.

623
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 1: Let's lock Clayton Kershaw not face hitters this week, and

624
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: there isn't currently a plan for one that will happen,

625
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 1: no idea when he is going to face hitters, So

626
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,199
Speaker 1: he's not going to pitch in the regular season. That

627
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 1: seems clear enough. Any chance you think that Kershaw pitches

628
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, and hell doll, the Dodgers won him

629
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 1: pitching in the playoffs.

630
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,920
Speaker 3: Right now, it's literally I don't think he pitches in

631
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 3: the playoffs. I think we've seen the last of Kershaw

632
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 3: this season, unless a miraculous change takes place in his health.

633
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 3: Because he looked like he was going to face pitchers

634
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 3: on our hitters on Tuesday and he's basically shut down again,

635
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 3: So I'm not feeling too optimistic about that.

636
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 1: The last piece of injury news is another bad one.

637
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 1: No good stuff comes out this time of year. Really,

638
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: Austin Riley season is done. He will not be available

639
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,159
Speaker 1: for the postseason as he continues to recover from a

640
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: fractured hand. You think that him missing the last couple

641
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,360
Speaker 1: weeks of the season potentially takes a round or two

642
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 1: off the price next year, Like you said, finishing healthy.

643
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 3: No, No, he was hitting the ball so well as

644
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 3: kind of a freak injury. I think you ready to

645
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,439
Speaker 3: rock and roll for the regular season. You might get

646
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 3: a discount and take advantage of him.

647
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: If I do see a discount, I probably will. Although

648
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: as a whole it was pretty disappointing season, but I

649
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 1: think the Braves just had some bad juju this year.

650
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 1: I'll be willing to invest back into the next season.

651
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: Let's run through some potential streamers for those of you

652
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: still in the hunt. This week, we're going to talk

653
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: about a few guys for the daily lineups. Obviously, weeklies

654
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 1: are long done for the year, but let's talk about

655
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 1: tonight Cody Bradford and Brady Basso on either side of

656
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: the equation, Bubba Oakland and Texas. If you're in a

657
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 1: daily league, are you streaming either of these guys, I

658
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 1: think I would with Bradford. What do you think?

659
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 3: I love them both, and I just want to throw

660
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,439
Speaker 3: out I think Basso's very, very good because in September,

661
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 3: Texas is striking out thirty four percent of the time

662
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 3: verus left. He's hitting one forty nine with a thirty

663
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 3: five WRC plus as a team. That is atrocious, atrocious stuff.

664
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 3: So I like both those pitchers and I'll throw one

665
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 3: more out there real quick for you. Joey Cantillo going

666
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 3: up against the Reds, a team hitting one seventy one

667
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,160
Speaker 3: with a thirty eight WRC plus with a twenty nine

668
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,639
Speaker 3: percent carry versus lefties in the month of September. So

669
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 3: Antillo is another one who's actually been pretty good of late.

670
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 3: So there's some nice, nice Wednesday streams for you.

671
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 1: There are some decent options I'm looking into Thursday. Again,

672
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: these are not all set in stone. I just kinda

673
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 1: want to get Bubba's thoughts on a couple of them.

674
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: The first one is a little bit dicey. I will

675
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: admit Kyle Gibson at Colorado. Colorado is really not a

676
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: team that scares me. Gibson is kind of whatever. But

677
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 1: let's say it's a fifteen team league here, Bubbo, and

678
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: I'll only type of deal. You're streaming him in deeper

679
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: leagues or you're just trying to steer clear of Kyle Gibson.

680
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 3: Deeper leagues. You can stream shallow leagues. No, because you

681
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 3: said the Rockies don't scare you, Kyle Gibson scares me.

682
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 3: So that's that's the difference there. But in deeper formats, yes,

683
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:36,720
Speaker 3: you still roll Kyle out there because it is a

684
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 3: chance at a w You got.

685
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: Kumar Rocker at Oakland tomorrow. I know that it hasn't

686
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: been maybe as good as we would have hoped, but

687
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:47,479
Speaker 1: still pretty decent stuff against a team like Oakland. I

688
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,679
Speaker 1: think that in most cases I'm streaming him, especially if

689
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: I'm looking for strikeouts. But but you have any worries

690
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 1: about throwing Kumar Rocker out tomorrow.

691
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,479
Speaker 2: If you need strikeouts, go for it.

692
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 3: I don't know if he has enough to get a win,

693
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 3: so definitely, depending on what you're looking for.

694
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,439
Speaker 1: That's true. David Festa against Miami coming off of not

695
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,399
Speaker 1: a great one, but a fantastic matchup here, Bubba Festa

696
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,160
Speaker 1: has disappointed me a little bit, but I do love

697
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,120
Speaker 1: the skills and I do love the matchup.

698
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, skills are great matchups great over gave

699
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,360
Speaker 3: it four early but settled down on Monday. If you're

700
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,640
Speaker 3: looking for a little at late late push the season,

701
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 3: I could see rolling the dice with festa.

702
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 1: Angelo mentioned Reese Olsen in the chat here. He's also

703
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,159
Speaker 1: on the list for his start against Tampa. What's your

704
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: interest level for that one?

705
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 3: It just depends on how far Olsen goes in the game.

706
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 3: But phenomenal matchup Rays have been pretty garbageably, especially a

707
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 3: lot of strikeouts.

708
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: Let's move into Friday, there's just one and again these

709
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: are a little bit dicey. As we go further and

710
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: further along, you never really know one hundred percent. But

711
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: as of right now, jpcars line up to start against Seattle.

712
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 1: He's been not too bad in the second half. Seattle's

713
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 1: been a great matchup. What's your interest level here, Bubba?

714
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 3: I like series. Just make sure you need it because

715
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 3: the one thing I'll say is they have turned it

716
00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 3: on in September two sixty seven, average one twenty five.

717
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 3: I have WRC plus versus lefties, and a lot of

718
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 3: that is Jay Rod warming up in a big way.

719
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 3: So if you really need, you know, strikeouts and a

720
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 3: chance to win. Sure, if you're pretty safe, be cautious

721
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 3: with this one.

722
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 1: Fred Dinger in the chat we just mentioned Kintio Bubba

723
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 1: is a fan of using Joey Cantillo for Saturday. A

724
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 1: couple of guys I've highlighted, Nick Martinez at the Cubs,

725
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: Andre Polante at your Giants, Bubba, what's your thoughts on

726
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: these two.

727
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 3: Cubs are one of the hottest teams in baseball right now,

728
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna steer clear of that one. So no

729
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 3: attacking the Cubs in my mind. Polante if you're desperate,

730
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 3: a lot of pitch to contact there, but he has

731
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 3: pitched really well. I'll give him that much over the

732
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 3: last month or so. So if you're looking for some upside,

733
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 3: I get it. Probably he's going opposite Blake snell Win

734
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 3: might be tricky.

735
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 1: I put Baba through the ringer there just quick fire,

736
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 1: quick fire streaming questions. But that is kind of the

737
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: group of options. Things will miss, things will mix around

738
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: a little bit. But Bradford, Basso, Kumar Rocker for strikeouts,

739
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 1: David Festa re Andre Polante, those are kind of the

740
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 1: main ones here. Over the last few days For Sunday.

741
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna try and recommend anything because I

742
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 1: have no idea what's going to happen for anybody, But

743
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 1: through Saturday, those are our favorite picks, just for fun.

744
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: I don't know how fun this is in Baltimore, but

745
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,720
Speaker 1: eloy him and has dropped down optioned to Triple A.

746
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 1: What does his future look like at this point? Is

747
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: he somebody that's gonna slowly fade out of baseball, you think,

748
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 1: or does somebody give him another chance to actually live

749
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: up to that potential. It feels like we're kind of

750
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: running out of time at this point.

751
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he'll get a shot just because baseball

752
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 3: is so bleak, and he'll be affordable, i'd imagine, But

753
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 3: it's been bad. An injury is lack of power when

754
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 3: he does play, and then you know, getting basically traded

755
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,719
Speaker 3: for and sent to Triple A not looking good for you, Lay,

756
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 3: that's for sure.

757
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 2: They might need to hang.

758
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 3: His jersey open the little dugout once again to bring

759
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:49,959
Speaker 3: him back to life.

760
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:51,959
Speaker 1: They're not hanging it in the rafters anywhere. I'll tell

761
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: you that at this point. Roddy Tillas, I saw you

762
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: mentioned it on your sub stack. I don't understand why

763
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 1: teams do this. I saw some people trying to defend

764
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: the pirates and say and say, no, no, you know what,

765
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: he didn't get the advats he did. They they cut

766
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 1: him with a few games left so he wouldn't get there.

767
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: It's just the scummy move over a couple hundred grand

768
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: I think it was two hundred to two hundred and

769
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: fifty k. People don't forget this type of thing. Bubba

770
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 1: teams players guys looking to sign. It's not like Pittsburgh

771
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 1: is a big free agent destination anyway. Do you think

772
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 1: this has much of an impact on their ability to

773
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: bring in players at all?

774
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 2: It will.

775
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 3: It will probably give like Paul Skeens a re signing

776
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 3: with the team, stuff like that. There's gonna be a

777
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 3: lot of trepidation in those thoughts.

778
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 2: That's put it that way.

779
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 3: You could have let him play Tuesday, get four played

780
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 3: appearances in DFAM on Wednesday. That's a very simple fix

781
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 3: to the problem. It wasn't like you're bringing up a

782
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 3: top prospect. You brought up Richie or Joshua. Pelasio's kind

783
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 3: of know who he is and the over Pigero in

784
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 3: his eighty eight WRC plus, so you didn't really neither

785
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 3: one's the first basement to top it off, just throwing

786
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 3: that out there. You could have waited a day. You

787
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 3: could have done the right thing. There was no need

788
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 3: to make this move. Pirate bad teams stay bad teams.

789
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 1: I don't even know why they would have needed to

790
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: make it like the season's done on Sunday, let him

791
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 1: finish out the year. Is just embarrassing a player who,

792
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: albeit he wasn't amazing for them this year, but there

793
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 1: was a stretch where Rowdy Teles was really really good.

794
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 3: And they were in the playoff hunt at that time.

795
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 3: They were continuing for like a while, like they were

796
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 3: actually good.

797
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, I just think it's a bad, bad thing

798
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: to do to a good guy, to a somebody around

799
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: baseball who is known as a good guy. I love

800
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 1: him for my time in Toronto. Obviously he's not a superstar,

801
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,959
Speaker 1: but you shouldn't do this kind of thing to players.

802
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 1: The Angels did it last year, a similar thing when

803
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: there was somebody who could have gotten some kind of

804
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: bonus or some health relief thing and they cut him.

805
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 1: I think it was a catcher. I can't remember exactly

806
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 1: what it is somebody listening is gonna know what I'm

807
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 1: talking about and think I'm insane for not remembering it.

808
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: But there are these little weird people moves that people

809
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: don't forget, especially those players around the league who are

810
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: going to be looking for deals as free agents. But

811
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 1: let's move on, and let's talk about the three up

812
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: and three down quickly to Reik Scooble, to nobody's surprise,

813
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,080
Speaker 1: have an nitting seven strikeouts and no earn runs. Ory Polanco,

814
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: who has been on the down or just ignored a

815
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 1: lot this season. I have dragged his name through the

816
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 1: mud because he was one of my most drafted players.

817
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 1: He very much disappointed me. He went four for four

818
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: yesterday with a home run, and then Von Grissom also

819
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,960
Speaker 1: had probably his best game of the season. Hasn't been

820
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 1: much this year, but he did have a three hit

821
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 1: game himself. So I wanted to highlight a couple of

822
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 1: names there along with three school who haven't really done much,

823
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: Ory Polanco and Von Grissom. Bubba, you gonna be buying

824
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 1: the quote unquote dip next season on either.

825
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm not gonna say no, but Polanco injury concerns

826
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 3: throughout the entire season and Griffon. We know the talents there,

827
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 3: but what's playing time look like there's a lot of

828
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 3: question marks.

829
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 2: For both of them.

830
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 1: I think I'd rather take a chance on Grissom considering

831
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:44,959
Speaker 1: what we saw when he first came up. He's got

832
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,239
Speaker 1: a good ballpark, a decent team. Where with Polanco I

833
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 1: don't know at this point. Three down John Carlos Stanton

834
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 1: the golden sombrero of the night. JP Crawford also had

835
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 1: one as well. Brandon fought two and two thirds, four

836
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 1: earn runs, six hits and two walks. Not good stuff

837
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 1: from brand and it fought to end the season. And

838
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: then a surprise name on the down Logan Gilbert. Four

839
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 1: earned runs in three homers over six innings yesterday against Houston.

840
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 1: Not his best. It wasn't terrible. Usually the down is

841
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 1: a little bit worse than that, but no starting pitcher,

842
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 1: I don't think you've up more than four earned runs yesterday.

843
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,319
Speaker 1: So it was hard to be good pitching, hard to

844
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: find a true true blow up. But Baba, that will

845
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 1: take us for the last time this season. In two

846
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 1: our best bets of the day for Wednesday, and Joey

847
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 1: p and the Welsh are still up on the graphic.

848
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 1: You'll get them back on Friday for the finale, but

849
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 1: you're stuck with us for one more time. Here on

850
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,520
Speaker 1: the Best Bets of the Day, presented by a Bet

851
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 1: three six five Bubba, how are you wrapping up your season? Here?

852
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 3: On leading off, we're staying on the plus money train

853
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 3: here going Taylor Ward over one and a half total

854
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 3: basis at plus one twenty five, talked about how good

855
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,360
Speaker 3: he's been lately. Gets a great matchup there against Davis

856
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 3: and the Chicago White Sox had another good game on Tuesday,

857
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 3: Corbyn Carrol. I think the the Dbacks bats wake up

858
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 3: Versu or Tyler Black. Mason Black pitching for the Giants

859
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:05,960
Speaker 3: on Wednesday night, Corbyan Carol over two and a half hits,

860
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 3: runs in RBIs at plus one twenty five might do

861
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,399
Speaker 3: that in one at bat. And then Joey Cantillo talked

862
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 3: about him earlier over five and a half strikeouts at

863
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 3: plus one thirty. I was shocked to see plus one

864
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:17,799
Speaker 3: thirty on this one as the red strikeout a ton

865
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 3: of Cantio has been getting six plus k's in his outings,

866
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 3: so I like that one quite a bit.

867
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: And TiO you are interested in him. He had that

868
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 1: amazing start. What was it against the White Sox? It

869
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 1: was like ten strikeouts, seven shutout innings. He has I

870
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 1: mean it is the White Sox, but he still has

871
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 1: a lot in him. I think that he could be

872
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 1: somebody that's pretty interesting. And tonight, I mean, plus money

873
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: plus one thirty for five and a half strikeouts does

874
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: feel pretty attainable for him. My bats, I'm starting off

875
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 1: with one that I hit the last time. I'm doing

876
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 1: the exact same thing over here. David Peterson over two

877
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 1: and a half earned runs. I don't trust him. I

878
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 1: haven't trusted him throughout this streak. The underlying data is

879
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 1: not good. He's still got command issues, the strikeouts aren't

880
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:57,360
Speaker 1: really there. And I think Atlanta, just based on the

881
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 1: way we're trending here, I think that they're going to

882
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:00,800
Speaker 1: get to him tonight. They don't even need to really

883
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:02,239
Speaker 1: get to him for this one to hit. They just

884
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 1: need to get three earned runs. I think that is

885
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 1: definitely gonna happen tonight. Shouldn't say definitely, but I think

886
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 1: there's a good chance. Austin Gomber is the second one.

887
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: How can we wrap up a season without betting against

888
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 1: Austin Gomber. It's Saint Louis coming into town. They're not

889
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:20,240
Speaker 1: world beaters necessarily, but Austin Gomber is not very good, folks.

890
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,719
Speaker 1: I mean, he has the odds start here and there

891
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,800
Speaker 1: where he's okay, but by and largely somebody that you

892
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 1: can target. So I'm taking plus three and a half

893
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 1: earned runs. That one is at plus one zero five,

894
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,359
Speaker 1: a little bit trickier at over three and a half,

895
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 1: but I'm pretty confident that he's not gonna have a

896
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 1: great start tonight. And then we're wrapping it up. I'm

897
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 1: gonna be on the right side of history here. We're

898
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 1: taking the Angels money line to beat the White Sox

899
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: tonight and get them into the history books. I think

900
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 1: that there's only so long the White Sox can hold

901
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 1: this one off. They won yesterday. I don't see it

902
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 1: happening again. So those are our best bets of the day.

903
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:57,280
Speaker 1: And Bubba, the final thing to do on the season

904
00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 1: here for Leading Office pick our final home run call

905
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: for today and I guess through the final week end

906
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:01,720
Speaker 1: of the season.

907
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna go back to the well thought Monday

908
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 3: would be the day for it. We're going back to

909
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,239
Speaker 3: it on Wednesday. I already picked Corbyn Carroll over two

910
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 3: and a half runs.

911
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:09,439
Speaker 2: Hits an rby.

912
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 3: I said it might happen and one at bat, and

913
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,919
Speaker 3: that a bat will be a home run for Corbyn Carroll.

914
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 3: I really do believe Mason Black is not that great.

915
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:18,400
Speaker 3: A heat shuts down the d Backs, I would be

916
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 3: just amazing happy at the same time. But yeah, give

917
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,800
Speaker 3: me some Corbyn Carroll going deep on Wednesday in the desert.

918
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:29,320
Speaker 1: I am targeting Austin Gomber once again here and it'll

919
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 1: be I believe they were teammates at one point, his

920
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 1: old teammates on Nolan Aeronado.

921
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 2: No, they were traded for each other.

922
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 1: That's right, that's right for each other. I forgotten, my god, it.

923
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 3: Was Austin Gomber and a bucket of balls and a

924
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 3: couple other things for Aeronado and cash.

925
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,440

00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,400
Speaker 1: totally forgotten that. That is pretty funny. But Nolan Aeronado,

927
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna take Gomber yard tonight in Colorado.

928
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:56,359
Speaker 1: It's been a bit of a down season for him,

929
00:37:56,360 --> 00:38:00,400
Speaker 1: but I think the situation is right for as Angelo says,

930

Speaker 1: But guys, this is bringing us to the end of

932
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,400
Speaker 1: the show. I can't promise we're gonna cut the black

933
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,319
Speaker 1: and do a Sopranos type of ending or anything like that.

934
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 1: But I want to just take a moment to say

948
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 1: different voice and you're probably thinking, what the hell. Some

949
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 1: people might just tun it, turn it off, and I

950
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 1: wouldn't blame them, but you guys stuck around, whether it's

951
