1
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:09,720
Speaker 1: Hello everybody, Welcome back into another episode of the cycle.

2
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 1: I am your host, Mike Maher. I am joined once

3
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 1: again by Kelly Kirby and Kelly. Football has begun, but

4
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:21,319
Speaker 1: we are still here talking about baseball. We are still here.

5
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 1: And so it's a pretty crazy time of the year

6
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: when the two sports overlap for those of us who

7
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 1: work in the industry. But that's okay. No one will

8
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,479
Speaker 1: feel about feel bad for us about that, so we

9
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 1: will not feel bad for ourselves. And we are here

10
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 1: to bring it home, to bring fantasy championships to the people,

11
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,560
Speaker 1: help you out, to close strong in your rental leagues,

12
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:42,559
Speaker 1: and to not get eliminated in the playoffs, and your

13
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 1: head to add leagues. And so with that intro, I

14
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 1: ask you how you doing.

15
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 2: I'm doing pretty well. No one has spit on me.

16
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 2: I haven't spit on anyone, so I feel like, you know,

17
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 2: I'm doing better than some people. But I'm also didn't

18
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 2: even talk about that. This was like, I'm so tired

19
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: of hearing about it.

20
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: Okay, has anyone spit at you?

21
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 2: No one has not at me. In the last you know,

22
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 2: a little bit that's important ten to fifteen years somewhere

23
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 2: important detail. Yeah, but no, I'm super excited to be

24
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 2: here talking about baseball just because you know, it's a

25
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 2: nice change of pace.

26
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: So I have been spit on somewhat recently, but I

27
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: have very young children. Yeah, oh, that's why you have

28
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: kids young. For those who have no idea what we're

29
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: talking about, that's a jail and Carter Dak Prescott reference,

30
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: which is again football. Well, we're here to talk about baseball,

31
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,399
Speaker 1: and so let's dive right in. I wanted to talk

32
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: about a few different things, but as we've talked about

33
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: in recent weeks, I want to kind of narrow the

34
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: focus a little bit, and so we're not really talking

35
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: about macro fantas at baseball anymore. We are talking about

36
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: micro lineup decisions, taking it week to week because a

37
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: lot of you are in weekly leagues, daily leagues, and

38
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,919
Speaker 1: whether it's roto or head to head, you have lineup

39
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: decisions to make. And now that we're getting down close

40
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: to the end, a lot of these decisions will make

41
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: or break what happens. And so even though we're not

42
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: going to talk about spitting anymore, we will talk about

43
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: someone who might be a jerk, which is something that

44
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 1: jerks too and so I ask you, is franburvald as

45
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: a jerk and to bring it in and kind of

46
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 1: explain why I'm asking that. By this point many of

47
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: you have seen the maybe you haven't, because it was

48
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 1: like a, I feel like it was a decent size story,

49
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: but it was not as big as I expected it

50
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: to be. I feel like those of us who work

51
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: in the space and or like really like dialed into

52
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: fantasy baseball were like, whoa that was? You know, that

53
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 1: was wild, but I don't think it really made a

54
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: huge splash like nationally. So maybe you don't know what happened.

55
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 1: But the spark Notes version, a cliff Notes version of

56
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: what happened is there was a weird sequence when in

57
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: favor of Valdes his recent start where he was almost

58
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: about to start his wind up and it seemed like,

59
00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: you know, he and the ketcher were not on the

60
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: same page, and the catcher kind of waved him off,

61
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: like get you know, step off the mound, you know,

62
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: let's reset here. Franbravaldez ignored him and proceeded to go

63
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: into his wind up and throw a pitch that was

64
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 1: immediately hit for a home run. And so in that case,

65
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 1: it seemed like the catcher was correct. Maybe we should

66
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 1: have not thrown that pitch, But for some reason, Valdez

67
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 1: was mad at his catcher and so in the following

68
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: it bat he it looked like it, you know, the

69
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: catcher had called for a breaking pitch and he just

70
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 1: like threw a fastball that crossed up the ketcher and

71
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: like basically hit him directly, which you know, in the

72
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: PitchCom era, it's kind of hard for that to happen.

73
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: Like you know, in the past, it's like, you know,

74
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: you put down one for a fastball, two for you know,

75
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: a breaking pitch, and you know, maybe you know, you

76
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: get confused, but like now, when like the pitch is

77
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: being told to you in your ear, it's kind of

78
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 1: hard to get that wrong. And so it seemed pretty

79
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: obviously he did that intentionally because he was mad, which

80
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: I'm not really sure why he would be. But what's

81
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 1: your take on that, is Franber Valdez jerk? Is this

82
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: a big deal or were you just making too much

83
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,119
Speaker 1: of it? Like, what's what's your take there?

84
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 2: I mean, last week we talked about whether or not

85
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 2: we wanted him on our team, Like are we trusting

86
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 2: him anymore, and and I'm like to follow that up

87
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 2: immediately with something like this. I was like, no, no,

88
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 2: I'm we're we officially cannot trust him anymore at this point.

89
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 1: It both as a person and a player.

90
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 2: Well yeah, I mean in the body language of the

91
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 2: catcher and him was awful. Like anyone who watched the video,

92
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 2: he absolutely intentionally threw the wrong pitch and then he,

93
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 2: like the catcher just kind of looked at him like

94
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 2: what are you doing? And Frans just like angry and

95
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 2: like stomping around a little bit, and I was just

96
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 2: kind of going, what is happening? And that's that start

97
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 2: was terrible. He struck out eight guys, but he gave

98
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 2: up six n runs and two home runs, including the

99
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,479
Speaker 2: Grand Slam because he was pouting or whatever he did.

100
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 2: So no, I don't want anything to do with him

101
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,679
Speaker 2: if I'm in the championship at this point.

102
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, And that's the other that's the other reason I

103
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: wanted to kind of bring it up, because not only

104
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: is this a big story, but also he we talked

105
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 1: about like you said, we talked about him last week.

106
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: He's a big name, you know. It's it's it's kind

107
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: of hard to drop him in fantasy, but you know,

108
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: now that we're this late in the season, like you

109
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 1: probably have to or you should consider it. In he

110
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 1: has a in the second half. He has a five

111
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 1: inn e RA over five in v Granted it's only

112
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: one start, but you know, in one start in September

113
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: ten point eight ERA, you know, based on just the

114
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,600
Speaker 1: one bad start, but also through August five point six

115
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: four ERA. So he's just like not been good for

116
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 1: a pretty lengthy stretch now after having a really good

117
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,359
Speaker 1: first half two point seventy five RA in the first half,

118
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: but it just seems like the wheels have come off

119
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: a bit, and you know, it's it's one of those

120
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 1: things wherever we're having this conversation in May, No, you

121
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 1: don't drop Vamber about this, but like we're into September now,

122
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: and like you said, if you're in a head to head,

123
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: you know, if you're in a head to head playoff matchup,

124
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: you you can't trust him in your lineup. It's one

125
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: thing if it's in rodo and maybe you can bench

126
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: him for a week and see if you think gets

127
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 1: turned around, or if you know, if you have a

128
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: deep enough rosters, maybe you just you know, the volume

129
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: is okay, and you take the chance he's pissing pitching,

130
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: not that pitching this week against the Braves, only one start.

131
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 1: That's why I made the literative literative mistake there. I

132
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: was gonna say he's not a two star pitcher, he's

133
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: only one star pitcher. Against the Braves. It was like,

134
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: not the best offense, but not the worst offense at

135
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 1: this point. But also it might not matter with Ramberveldez.

136
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 1: So yeah, I agree, I don't think it head to head.

137
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: I'm definitely not starting him because he could just cost

138
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: you your matchup in Rodo. I'm probably benching him if

139
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 1: I can. But also, you know, if I you know,

140
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 1: we've talked in recent weeks, but all these really good

141
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: young pitchers, most of them are probably not on waivers anymore.

142
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: But in an upcoming segment, we're going to talk about

143
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: a bunch of two star pitchers, and I think there

144
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: are a lot of them that are interesting enough candidates

145
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: that if you know, it really came down to a

146
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 1: roster corunch and it's like, do I want to drop

147
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: Framberbaldez for somebody's names. I think the answer is probably yes. Yeah.

148
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: So before we get to that segment, I want to

149
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 1: hit on a bunch of injuries because there were a

150
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: lot of them. There's a bunch of people going down,

151
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 1: a bunch of people coming back. And this is also

152
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: kind of that weird part of the season where it

153
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: can be frustrating a fantasy because we're getting towards the

154
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: end of the season. Teams that are not contending are

155
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: more inclined to kind of shut their players down. If

156
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: it's a pitcher, maybe they start dialing back the innings,

157
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 1: if it's a position player who's banged up or you know,

158
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: just had a long season, that they can consider shutting

159
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: them down or you know, resting them more often. And

160
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: so it starts to get really frustrating. But they're also

161
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: legitimate injuries. And the biggest one in the last you know,

162
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 1: week or so is Roman Anthony who has an oblique injury,

163
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: which is, you know, one of the worst injuries you

164
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: can have as a hitter because it's like it takes

165
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: a while to recover. It's also kind of hard to

166
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: know when you're recovered. It's kind of like a hamstring

167
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: injury for you know, for base stealers, it's kind of

168
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: like you feel like maybe you're back and then you

169
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: swing aback and you're like, Nope, still very hurt. Can't

170
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 1: can't do it. And it's probably like a month at least.

171
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 1: And that one's a real dagger because he was really

172
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: doing well, looking like the top prospect of baseball. And

173
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: I don't know how much it's going to affect the

174
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: other hitters in that lineup, but I feel like the

175
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: it like a little bit. It's like at least a

176
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: little bit because he kind of like not to spend

177
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: the whole time talking about like Roman Anthony, but he

178
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: kind of like completely revamped that lineup because once he

179
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: came up started hitting well, they moved him into light

180
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: up up to lead off. They moved Jaron Durant to third,

181
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,319
Speaker 1: and it kind of like everything clicked and it seemed

182
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: like he was like the perfect fit is the lead off.

183
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,719
Speaker 1: And so now like I don't know, if Duran goes

184
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,559
Speaker 1: back to leading off, I should probably look because they

185
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 1: have played since he got hurt.

186
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Rester resource has him leading off again.

187
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, which is like it's ideal for him and that

188
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: he can fly. But also it didn't seem like leading

189
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: off was like the best fit for him and he

190
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 1: he really heated up batting third, and so it's one

191
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: of those things where it's a bummer if you have

192
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 1: romananthe but it's also like someone concerning if you have

193
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: Darren Durant, if you have Alex pregnant, if you have

194
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: Trevor Story because he and he affected that whole lineup,

195
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: So that one's a bummer, especially because you know such

196
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 1: a young hitter who looked really good. That's that one stings.

197
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,199
Speaker 1: Kyle Tucker is day to day with calf tightness. It

198
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: seems like he's going to avoid the il. He's not

199
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: We're recording Friday this week. He is not in the

200
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: lineup on Friday, but it sounds like it might not

201
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: be a long term issue. He could be back soon.

202
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 1: Mike Trout, just to add to his lengthy list of elopments,

203
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: had a skin infection and missed some time, but he

204
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 1: is back in the lineup, so he is okay for now.

205
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: Michael King could be activated this week, but he is.

206
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 1: He has another SIM game coming up, and it seems

207
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: like he's gonna throw another SIM game and not going

208
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 1: to rehab assignment. But in his most recent SIM game,

209
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: he only threw forty four pitches. And so we don't

210
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 1: know what the what the workload is going to look

211
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 1: like when he's back. Kyle Stowers, kind of a surprising

212
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: superstar this year, is starting a rehabit time and he

213
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: could be back in your line up soon. This is

214
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: kind of an interesting one as of last night. Jazz

215
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 1: Chisholm injured both of his knees in the field and

216
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: but they're optimistic about it, which you know, they injured

217
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: both knees. He went for testing and they say they're optimistic,

218
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: but I don't know. I feel like if you injured

219
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 1: both knees, I'm a little concerned. Max Munsey the Dodgers.

220
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,679
Speaker 1: Max months he's beginning a rehabit time and he could

221
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: be back soon. New Eyes and all Spencer Arraghetti likely

222
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: done for the regular season. Seth Lugo to the IL

223
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: Cole Reagan's is tossing batting practice, but also it feels

224
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,439
Speaker 1: like the calendar is starting to work against Cole Reagan's,

225
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 1: Like is he going to make it all the way back?

226
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: That remains to be seen. He could be in one

227
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: of those categories where it's like he works his way

228
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: all the way back, but you know, it depends on

229
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: where the Royals are in the standings whether or not

230
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 1: they unleash him. Anthony Santander, who's been missing all season,

231
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: has a rehabit sign on tap, So he's potential intriguing

232
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: name if he's available in your league or if you've

233
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: been stashing him in the entire season. And then Esta Parades,

234
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: who has been out with a hamstring injury, did some

235
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 1: field work recently. It doesn't sound like a return is imminent,

236
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: but he is at least showing signs of doing things

237
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: on a baseball field. And so I talked for a

238
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,199
Speaker 1: very long time there. I did not let you chime in,

239
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:25,439
Speaker 1: but we can just start the top. Is there anyone

240
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: who obviously Roman Anthony already spent a bunch of time

241
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: on like he's that one's a bummer. It seems pretty clear.

242
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: Not a whole lot of takeaways there, Like you're not

243
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: going to replace Roman Anthony in your lineup, but any

244
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 1: of these other ones, like Michael King, for example. What's

245
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: your level of confidence with Michael King coming back given

246
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: the strange season he's had.

247
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I really I drafted him everywhere. I

248
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 2: kept him in a couple of leagues. I was really

249
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 2: high on him. Before the season started, and I still

250
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 2: kind of am. But my concern there is and this

251
00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 2: is where it kind of becomes a you have to

252
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 2: find the sweet spot of teams that are either like

253
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 2: just kind of good enough to keep playing, but not

254
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 2: like absolutely locked into a playoff spot, which kind of

255
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 2: takes out everyone in that nationally because I mean, the

256
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 2: Giants are making a little bit of noise, but otherwise

257
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,079
Speaker 2: those six teams are set. So I don't think the

258
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 2: Padres are gonna let him do a ton. I think

259
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 2: they'll bring him back up, but in terms of fantasy,

260
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't think they're gonna risk him because

261
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,719
Speaker 2: they're they're in. Although you know, as long as they

262
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 2: stay with the Dodgers, that two of those two teams

263
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 2: fight over who wants it less are you know, I

264
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 2: think he could be useful, So I'm okay with him.

265
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 2: I smile at Mike Trout just because I mean, I

266
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 2: just I don't even know what to do with him.

267
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 2: Just it's like the weirdest collection of injuries that just

268
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 2: pop up, and and I feel bad for the guy

269
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 2: because I'm just like, really seriously a skin infection now,

270
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 2: But as long as he's in the lineup. I'm fine

271
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 2: playing him. I don't want anything to do with two

272
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 2: bad knees, but Stours is good. I'll keep him, Muncie,

273
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,439
Speaker 2: I'm good with him. I agree with you entirely in

274
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 2: Reagan's I don't think that. I don't. I don't think

275
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 2: they're going to rush him back at all. And I

276
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 2: feel like we're kind of past that point where he

277
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 2: needs to come back, unless the Royals make a run

278
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 2: here and then Santander, you know, I wrote all all preseason,

279
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: over and over and over again that like, a guy

280
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 2: signs a contract like that and you should not like

281
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 2: just leave him off your team. And then I kept

282
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 2: him an hour Roatal League because I had no one

283
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:32,720
Speaker 2: but and then he'sa ot on my eye all year.

284
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 2: So I don't want anything to do with him either.

285
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 2: Coming back. I think he might be a good boost

286
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 2: for the Blue Jays as a real life player, but

287
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 2: fantasy I'm not willing to kind of ride that out.

288
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 2: So so it's kind of it's a kind of a

289
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 2: sad list. The run a lot of people that I'm like,

290
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 2: make sure you have them.

291
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:56,719
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, I don't have any shares of Santander

292
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 1: this year. Kind of for the reason the reasons that

293
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: you man for me, he keeps coming off a great year,

294
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: a sign a big contract, but the price tag was

295
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 1: a little too high. You know. I always talk in

296
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 1: the off season or coming in season about like drafting

297
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,319
Speaker 1: someone out their ceiling, which I try to avoid. It

298
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 1: seems like he was being drafted at a ceiling and

299
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: then lo and behold, we got his floor because he

300
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: missed the whole season. And so not that you ever

301
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: want to victory lap an injury or anything, but I

302
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: do feel very fortunate that I don't have any Santanta

303
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: or shares, but I do agree missing the whole season,

304
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 1: not having spring you know, like a full spring training

305
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 1: traditional ramp up, like starting in April. We've seen that

306
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 1: do weird things the hitters who are coming back. So

307
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 1: who knows what he looks like when he does come back,

308
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: but I do think he's gonna he'll help the Blue Jays,

309
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 1: but he'll be a question mark for a fantasy And

310
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: then Predes is the interesting one. Ideally he comes back

311
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 1: sooner rather than later. But just the fact that he

312
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: plays third base. We've talked all season about what their

313
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: base looks like. So yes, Pardes is out there and

314
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: has a pulse, like he said last week, like maybe

315
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: I don't have to start Ryan McMahon anymore, although he's

316
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: heating up. Yeah, now I wanted to move over. And

317
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 1: since we're, like I said, narrowing the focus and we're

318
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: talking about weekly lineup decisions, I wanted to talk about

319
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 1: lineup streamers and some start sick questions. And these are

320
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 1: players who are like should be available in a bunch

321
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: of leagues or have been picked up in the recent

322
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: future and are doing some things, but it's just, you know,

323
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: can you trust him? And I had to head I

324
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 1: had to head matchup or you know, in a Rodo

325
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: lineup this week, probably the most interesting one that I

326
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 1: put at the top here is CALLSA Montgomery because he's

327
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: got a really weird profile, but he also has seven

328
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 1: home runs in the last two weeks. But he also

329
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: feels it feels like the kind of guy who like

330
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: who could just next week hit one fifty for your

331
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: team and just bomb some of your some of your categories.

332
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 1: He has six games this upcoming week, which is important

333
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 1: to pay attention to, and had to head six games

334
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: against Tampa and Cleveland, And if I look at the

335
00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: pitchers he's projected to face. If I filibuster here for

336
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: a second, it's not like the biggest names. It's Howser,

337
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: Pepio Seymour who we love TBD against the Guardians and

338
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: then Messic and CHICONI. So it's not a terrible a

339
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: terrible uh rotation he's going up against. In terms of

340
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Cypros Hitcher hitter matchup braidings, that's not a

341
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: word hitcher. I guess maybe it is.

342
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 2: That right, he's a hitcher.

343
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's true. But I was looking at the

344
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: Fantasypros hitter matchup bratings and they kind of rank it

345
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: by team for the upcoming week of who they're facing.

346
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: Like in terms of pitching, the White Sox are fifteen,

347
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: so right in the middle. So what do you think

348
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: about couldt On Montgomery as someone like starter? Like are

349
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: you starting them six games not terrible pitching staff or

350
00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 1: are you too afraid of the bottom falling out in

351
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: something like let's assume it's head to head.

352
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I I'm starting him. I think less

353
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 2: like unless he was like scheduled to just face nothing

354
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,679
Speaker 2: but left handers, I'm willing to give that a shot

355
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 2: for him because his power is just very it's very real.

356
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 2: And mostly the other thing is it's like, who am

357
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 2: I starting in place of him? And what kind of

358
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 2: power potential is there? So yeah, he could bat one fifty,

359
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,159
Speaker 2: but he could also hit three home runs well batting

360
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 2: one fifty, and so it's like you're just kind of rolling,

361
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 2: you're rolling that dice. He's not gonna stay. He's not

362
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 2: gonna stay as hot as he is right now. But

363
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 2: I really don't have a much problem rolling him out

364
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 2: again just because of if you look at all the

365
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 2: other injuries and what does my team look like. Yeah,

366
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 2: give me the guy who has seven home runs in

367
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 2: the last two weeks, I'll take it.

368
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is a good point because he is, like

369
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 1: I said, six games, he's facing two lefties, So two

370
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 1: of his six games are against lefties. And not a

371
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,119
Speaker 1: large sample size this, but in forty nine of bats,

372
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: batting one to eighty four against lefties with three home

373
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: runs but against right easy, you only need in two

374
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: forty two, which is much better but not great. It's

375
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 1: not you know, it's much better than one eighty four,

376
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: but you have to hope that maybe those lefties don't

377
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:19,360
Speaker 1: stay in the game long enough. Yeah for me. Obviously,

378
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 1: it depends on the league and how deep it is,

379
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: but chances are if you were starting him recently, you

380
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: probably need to continue starting him because you probably don't

381
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 1: have anyone much better. What about Ramone Loreano, who in

382
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 1: terms of our projections coming up VBR you know, we

383
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 1: we you know, we track the statistical value of players

384
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: in Fantasy, but then we also project the future, you know,

385
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 1: value based on projections, and so for the upcoming week,

386
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: he's fourth among hitters, is Ramone Loreano, and he has

387
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 1: a full seven games slate, which is good against the

388
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 1: Reds and the Rockies. So Ramone Loreano, are you starting

389
00:18:58,720 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 1: him or sitting him?

390
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 2: Do you know without looking what you might be looking

391
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 2: right at his page? How many home runs he has

392
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:04,440
Speaker 2: this year?

393
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 1: I don't, I'm not. I don't have his page up.

394
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,679
Speaker 1: I have the Fantasy Bros. Hitter matchup ratings page up,

395
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:11,719
Speaker 1: but I can pull it up.

396
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, I've got to tell you I've got it.

397
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:14,439
Speaker 1: You got it.

398
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, He's hit twenty two home runs this year

399
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 2: and his slash line is absurd, like he's at two

400
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 2: ninety ninety three sixty one five forty three. So yeah,

401
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 2: I'm starting him. I don't there's nothing about that that

402
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 2: concerns me. And I'm not even really all that surprise

403
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 2: that his VBR is that high. When he gets to

404
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 2: go to Colorado, right, does he go there or he hosts?

405
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 2: Either way he gets Colorado pitching for three games. So yeah, no,

406
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 2: Loreano is on my team. I'm starting him, that's not

407
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 2: that's not a question.

408
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. And the other good thing talking about the all

409
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: seven games are at home, not that you know they

410
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 1: have a great home ballpark for hitters, but all seven

411
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 1: games are at home, and in terms of the matchup ratings,

412
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 1: number one, the best matchups for hitters next week are

413
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:06,360
Speaker 1: players on the padres. So yeah, I think I'm more

414
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,919
Speaker 1: confident in starting him than Calsa Montgomery. Yeah, I think

415
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,680
Speaker 1: I think I'm starting him. What about Austin Hayes, who's

416
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 1: had kind of a I guess roller coaster season is

417
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 1: what you would call it. He was had He's always

418
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 1: had trouble staying on the field, but this season he

419
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: was really hot. When he was on the field, he

420
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: kept missing time. He's been cold recently, but very recently.

421
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 1: He has two home runs in his last four games,

422
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 1: and this week he has six games at at San

423
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: Diego and at the Athletics who play in Sacramento. But

424
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 1: they don't like to say that. They just like to

425
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: say Athletics. They don't want to give Sacramento any any

426
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 1: credit despite graciously hosting them. They I don't know, I

427
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 1: don't know why you do that. Maybe they're jerks too,

428
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: like Ramber Beeldez. But what about Austin Hayes. His his

429
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 1: VBR projected VBR forty six. Yeah, so top fifty, but

430
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 1: not fourth like Ramon Mareano.

431
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,640
Speaker 2: If it's a if it's weekly league, I'm not starting him.

432
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 2: If it is a daily league, I'm going I'll start

433
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,959
Speaker 2: him in Sacramento. So that's that's why I'm looking at it.

434
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 2: I feel like it's just even coming right off of

435
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 2: what we just said about Loreno. I'm like, San Diego

436
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,439
Speaker 2: is not exactly the best ballpark for hitting, and the

437
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 2: Padres pitching is decent or better than decent. But I'll

438
00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,919
Speaker 2: throw pretty much anyone if they're going to spend time

439
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 2: at the Athletics field. So yeah, I if you can

440
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 2: split it, i'd start in the second half. If you can't,

441
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 2: i'd bench him.

442
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, he kind of feels like that. Like I've had

443
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 1: like the Taylor Ward problem this year where I don't

444
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:41,919
Speaker 1: know how many home runs he has, it's like thirty,

445
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 1: but I think twenty four of them have been on

446
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: my bench just because he's been like so cold, and

447
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, I gotta sit this guy for a week.

448
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 1: And then he hits six on rounds in my card,

449
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,679
Speaker 1: I'll put him back on my lineup. Then he hits zero,

450
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: and so I've been doing that all year and just

451
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: like if I just left him in my lineup, that

452
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 1: would be okay, but you know, it was so bad

453
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,040
Speaker 1: for a while that I had to bench him and

454
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,400
Speaker 1: then he goes hot and then he goes cold.

455
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 2: We should kind of, Oh sorry, I was just gonna say,

456
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 2: we should really have like the Tailor Ward All Stars,

457
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 2: like in the in preseason next year, just be like, Okay,

458
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 2: here are the guys that, yeah, you can ruster them,

459
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 2: but good luck, Like, because yeah, I agree with you,

460
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 2: I think that I think Hayes isn't that same bunch.

461
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 1: I've been thinking about that a lot recently, with like

462
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,120
Speaker 1: kind of like a consistency rating, because there are also

463
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 1: players like Julio Rodriguez who was like borderline unstartable in

464
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 1: the first half, but then is an all star in

465
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: the second half, and it's like, yeah, at the end

466
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 1: of the season, the numbers look great, but you buried

467
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: me for three months, and so now your second half

468
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 1: like it's too late, you know in Rodo or you

469
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 1: know in head to Dead if you know, I lost

470
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 1: all my previous matchups, and so it's kind of one

471
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:46,879
Speaker 1: of those things where it's like, yeah, at the end

472
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 1: of the season, you got all those stats and it

473
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 1: looks great, but if it's if it's not consistent like

474
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: it can kind of it's like not the same production

475
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: like it is, but it isn't right. But the fact

476
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: that he's heated up with two home runs recently makes

477
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 1: me more excited the pitch he's facing. He's there. The

478
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: Reds matchup rating is eighteenth, so not terrible, but bottom half.

479
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,479
Speaker 1: And it's you Darvish, Nest Cortez, Nick Pavetta, and then

480
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,199
Speaker 1: J T. Gin, Luis Saverino and Morales the you know,

481
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: one of those young pictures we like, so decent crop

482
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 1: of pictures, you know, some some you know, Cortez is

483
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 1: a good matchup for him. Gin and Saverinore not terrible matchups,

484
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: but like Darvas is you know darbish. You know he

485
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,159
Speaker 1: can do things, but he's he can also be you darbish.

486
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 1: That has been really good. Morales has been really good.

487
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:35,920
Speaker 1: So that one's tough. And now I wanted to ask

488
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 1: you about a bunch of two star pictures because one

489
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,440
Speaker 1: thing I love doing is streaming pictures. But that gets

490
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: a little dangerous towards the end of the season, especially

491
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 1: you know if you're like really in rodo, like really

492
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: tight up against it with you know, ratios and counting

493
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 1: stats against other other managers. And then it had to

494
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 1: have like we like we just talked about, like one

495
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: blow up can just end your season. But also two

496
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: starts very attractive, especially in points formats. So I think

497
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 1: a lot of these are fringe starters who could be

498
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,360
Speaker 1: available or could be on your bench in a lot

499
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 1: of leagues. And so I included a bunch of them.

500
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 1: And so the first one I'll toss out to you

501
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: is a weird one, Sean Maniah, who has a two

502
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:21,439
Speaker 1: start week versus the Phillies and the Rangers. Are you

503
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 1: starting Sean Maniah?

504
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 2: Am I starting Sean Manyah? Maybe I'm just looking for zero. Yeah,

505
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 2: I'm just looking at how he's done against the Phillies

506
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 2: in his career. I mean, they tend to run him

507
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 2: out of games pretty pretty early, so that one makes me.

508
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,679
Speaker 2: That one makes me really nervous. So no, I'm not.

509
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 2: If again, if it's a I have to start for both,

510
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 2: I'm not because I really don't want Texas either for him.

511
00:24:52,600 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 1: So yeah, it just it hasn't been very good this season,

512
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 1: especially recently because that ERA about five and a half.

513
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 1: A lot of that is more recently than when he

514
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,160
Speaker 1: first came back. His first month in July, he had

515
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 1: an ERA around two, and then August seven, and then

516
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: the very beginning obviously it's only one start, but twelve

517
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 1: in September and for the second half of the season,

518
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,120
Speaker 1: which again is like most of his season five point

519
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: eight three ERA over forty one two thirds innings. But

520
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: that's even worse, you know, more recently. So kind of

521
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 1: hard to trust someone trending in the wrong way, especially

522
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,439
Speaker 1: with it's not like some of these other pitchers who

523
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 1: are going to have good matchups. But yeah, as enticing

524
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 1: as it is to get a two star pitcher, I

525
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: don't think I'm going with seum and I this week,

526
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 1: what about Slade CHACONI was not a huge name, but

527
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: he has two decent matchups, two start pitcher against the

528
00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 1: Royals and the White Sox. The white Hot White Sox, Yeah.

529
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 2: White Hot because they got to play the Twins a

530
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 2: whole lot in the last couple of weeks. I think, Yeah, yeah,

531
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 2: he's interesting. I like his matchups. Is he a lefty?

532
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 2: I can't remember. I'm sorry, I know he's already. I

533
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 2: would have liked him better if he's a lefty anyway, Sorry,

534
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 2: I yeah, I mean I would still. I guess I

535
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 2: would still start him if I needed like counting and stats.

536
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 2: So because I think the Royals and the White Sox

537
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 2: are still going to give you, like a little bit

538
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 2: more help in that area. The Worlds don't strike out

539
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 2: a ton, but they're also not They're not gonna beat

540
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:42,159
Speaker 2: you like to a pulp most of the time. But yeah,

541
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,239
Speaker 2: so I think i'd be more willing to start him

542
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 2: than Manya. He doesn't excite me in any way, but

543
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 2: I would be willing to.

544

00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,920
Speaker 1: You made me doubt myself for a second there because

573
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 1: I was like, no, he's not a lefty. And I

574
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 1: was like, wait, is he Slade? Sounds like a lefty name?

575
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 1: But I knew he was a righty. Yeah, But I

576
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,120
Speaker 1: was like, am I thinking of Like? Am I thinking

577
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: of someone else here? I thinking? Because I was like, well,

578
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 1: Parker Messig is a lefty, and I'm like, am I

579
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 1: mixing him up with Slade CHACONI right? Because like God forbid,

580
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,959
Speaker 1: I miss you know, Shane Baz and TODs Brawley all

581
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 1: over again. So I just let you figure it out

582
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 1: on your own. Thanks, But uh, Slade, that would be

583
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 1: a great lefty reliever name like Slade something Chaconi isn't

584
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 1: a great believer name, but Slade would be a great

585
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: like lefty specialist name. I think I would start him

586
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: against the White Sox and Royals, but again it would

587
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 1: depend on the match, like the league. Like I have

588
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 1: a couple of leagues where pitching is deep in the

589
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 1: sense that it's not deep like there are a ton

590
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 1: of pictures available, but like you can start a lot

591
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 1: of pitchers and a lot of players. Managers in that

592
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: league start for volume and kind of just let the

593
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 1: law of large numbers, you know, work work everything out.

594
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: Where as long as you don't have like multiple blow ups,

595
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: if you throw out a ton of volume, we will

596
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 1: get the quality starts. We've got the strikeouts. You just

597
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 1: have to hope you're pitching is good enough that the

598
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 1: average of like your ear A and whip is good

599
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: enough while like locking in like the counting stats categories

600
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 1: like strikeouts in quarts. So I think it was like

601
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 1: in a league like that where I need the volume,

602
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: I'm starting him, But like if in tighter leagues where

603
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 1: you're only starting like six, he's probably not making the

604
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 1: cut for me. If I'm you know, if I have

605
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 1: a playoff pitching roster that got me to the playoffs,

606
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: I'm probably not fighting to put Chacni in there. What

607
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 1: about Noah Cameron at the Guardians and at the Phillies.

608
00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 2: Got those are tough matchups because I've I liked Cameron,

609
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 2: I had him on my team.

610
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: I pretty much lefty.

611
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know I tend to hunt down the lefties. Yeah,

612
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:12,960
Speaker 2: I mean, I think, why did you pick such hard ones?

613
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 2: I think I would. I think I would. I think

614
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 2: I would still do it for him, just because I

615
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 2: don't like I mean, his strikeout percentage is not is

616
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 2: not high, but his walk percentage is also pretty low.

617
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 2: His whip is good. Yeah, he has the chance to

618
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,640
Speaker 2: just get blown up by the Phillies. But I don't

619
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 2: have any problems starting against Cleveland, So it's a that's yeah,

620
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 2: it's fifty to fifty. But I would I would be

621
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 2: willing to start him more than the first two. So

622
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 2: I guess if that's the direction we're going to go here,

623
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 2: then each one is just better. But I just looked

624
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 2: at the rest of the names and that's not true.

625
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 2: So I would start no Cameron.

626
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I hate I hate the matchups. But I've really

627
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 1: been intrigued by him all season long. And it's the

628
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 1: one thing that you mentioned that's interesting is the strikeout right,

629
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 1: because it's around seven bran, but in the miners it

630
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 1: was above ten consistently, and so it's interesting that he's

631
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 1: kind of just been different at the major league level.

632
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: And maybe, you know, this is his first season in

633
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 1: the majors, so maybe that's coming and he's just kind of,

634
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 1: you know, like he's pitching very well without a ton

635
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 1: of strikeouts. If he can kind of take another step

636
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: up in the strikeout area, he could be really good.

637
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 1: It is tough to start against the Phillies given the

638
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 1: what they can do to pitchers, especially it's at Philly

639
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: at Citizens Bank Park, which is a very hitter friendly venue. Yeah,

640
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 1: I agree, I'm more likely to start him than the

641
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 1: other two, but given the lack of strikeouts and given

642
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: the tough matchup against the Phillies, I don't really want

643
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: to start him confidently. But he has been pretty good

644
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: at limiting the damages here despite some of his expected numbers.

645
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: Because Zra is three h three, his FIP, ex fIF

646
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 1: and Sierra are all around the mid fours, So I

647
00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 1: also don't want to be holding the potato when that

648
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 1: regression comes, and so I am a little bit worried

649
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 1: about that. What about Will Warren versus the Tigers and

650
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: at the Red Sox, the Roman Anthony less Red Sox.

651
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know I would start him. I mean,

652
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 2: I don't really even have to look too hard at that.

653
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:20,959
Speaker 2: I think he has done well this year. Again, his

654
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 2: home rud splits used to be really dramatic, but I

655
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 2: don't think they're as dramatic as they were when I

656
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 2: was looking to start him the one time. He's he

657
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 2: is who he is right like, I mean, he is

658
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 2: Urra and expected Ra, his FIP and expect. They're kind

659
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 2: of like right next to each other. So like, you

660
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 2: know exactly what you're getting with him, and you're getting

661
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 2: almost a strikeout per inning. His walk rates a little

662
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 2: higher than I would like it to be, but I'm

663
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 2: I'm okay with that, especially the Roman Anthony Ellis Jared

664
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 2: Duran leading off Red Sox.

665
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, and unlike Cameron, you will probably get strikeouts Will Warren,

666
00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 1: Will Warren. What about Aaron Nola.

667
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 2: I don't want anything to do with Aeronola ever, Yeah,

668
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 2: I don't think.

669
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 1: So, I just I had to including with Star Pitcher

670
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: and he's such a big name. But I didn't even

671
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: mention the matchups. It might not matter, but versus the Mets,

672
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: versus the Royals, both at home. But yeah, six point

673
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: seven to eight ERA just another dud. And you know,

674
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 1: I I'm a Red Sox fan, but I follow the

675
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:28,479
Speaker 1: Phillies very closely, you know, as someone who loves all

676
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 1: things Philly and lived in Philly for a while. You know,

677
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 1: I follow a lot of Philly people. And the thing

678
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 1: that they've been talking about for a while now is

679
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 1: like what do we do when we get to the playoffs,

680
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 1: especially without Zach Wheeler. Now they're like, we can't run

681
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: aaronola out there in a playoff game. And if the

682
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 1: Phillies don't want to run Aaron Nolau in the playoff game,

683
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: I don't want to run him out of my playoff matchup.

684
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: So I think I'm going to stay away too.

685
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I was just looking at it, like,

686
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 2: and his is kind of the opposite where he's got

687
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 2: the six seven eight ERA right, and I'm like, oh,

688
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 2: his XCRA is way lower, but it's at four point

689
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 2: nine two. So like this isn't a like you're not

690
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 2: gaining a lot of even if even if fagression comes in,

691
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,239
Speaker 2: you're not gaining a ton. He's still sitting in an

692
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 2: area that I don't want anything to do with him.

693
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 1: So this last one might be the most interesting one,

694
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 1: but maybe you disagree. Caide Cavali first round pick at

695
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: the Marlins and versus the Pirates, So two pretty good matchups,

696
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 1: although the Marlins are sneaky like not terrible, and the

697
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 1: Pirates are a good matchup. But his era for the

698
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 1: season is not great, but he is coming off a

699
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: pretty good start five innings tour in rounds six strikeouts,

700
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,800
Speaker 1: but that was on the heels of a dud against

701
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: the Yankees where he allowed seven are in runs. But

702
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 1: before that he had thrown two consecutive quality starts, one

703
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 1: of the box really, both of them against the Phillies,

704
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 1: and so he's shown some things. He has good matchups.

705
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 1: He's a you know, a top prospect, a first round

706
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: pick in twenty twenty, so not like you know, not

707
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:58,640
Speaker 1: like shiny brand new top prospect, but a former top prospect,

708
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 1: former first round pick. Any interest in cape Cavali is

709
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 1: a two star pitcher at the Marlins or versus the

710
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,799
Speaker 1: Pirates and versus the Pirates.

711
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he faced him faced the Marlins like

712
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 2: three days ago, right, and he had a really good outing,

713
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 2: didn't give up any home runs, which was a giant

714
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:18,920
Speaker 2: problem the two starts before that, but that was the

715
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 2: Yankees and the Phillies. So yeah, I don't have any

716
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 2: problem with my with with him starting against Miami, and

717
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 2: at this point, I don't have any issue with starting

718
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 2: anyone against the Pirates. You're only concerned there is if

719
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 2: you're facing Schmes and his microscopic or a like. You know,

720
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 2: that's tough for start. That's tough for an opposing starter

721
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 2: to get the win sometimes because usually it's what one

722
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 2: to one and then the Pirates give it up later.

723
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:48,640
Speaker 2: So yeah, so yeah, so I bet I do like

724
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 2: him for the purposes of what we're talking about. Those

725
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 2: are two matchups that I wouldn't mind seeing what he

726
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 2: can do.

727
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really only the Yankees that he had home

728
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,239
Speaker 1: run issues with. And it's worth noting that start came

729
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 1: in Yankee Stadium, which is not a real ballpark, so

730
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,800
Speaker 1: I don't even know if those count. In his previous

731
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 1: four starts, he only allowed two home runs combined over

732
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: four starts, and that includes one home run allowed across

733
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 1: thirteen innings against the Phillies, So not bad. Yeah, I

734
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: think it was really the Yankees. It just kind of

735
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,440
Speaker 1: like lit him up and took him deep. Better than

736
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,439
Speaker 1: that only and if you include this most recent start,

737
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: two runs in five of his last six starts. It

738
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 1: is tough to trust him because granted, he's not like

739
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 1: a young prospect anymore, but like, there's not a ton

740
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: of track record here and it could blow up in

741
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 1: your face, but I feel like the upside is there

742
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,359
Speaker 1: enough to make me intrigued. I don't want to rank

743
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 1: these guys, but I feel like I will. Actually, it's

744
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,360
Speaker 1: really hard to rank him because I don't even know

745
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 1: what I don't even know which one like Noah, Cameron

746
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 1: or TRACONI like Cameron more, but Cooni has the better matchups.

747
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:05,600
Speaker 1: Why don't you rank him?

748
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 2: Oh? Sure, yeah, throw it to me. Yeah, I mean

749
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 2: I think I was just.

750
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:13,360
Speaker 1: I would at the bottom.

751
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 2: You can do that, Yeah, just again, toss him out entirely,

752
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:21,080
Speaker 2: and Manaia's right above him just because of who he's facing. Uh, Okay,

753
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 2: so we.

754
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 1: Got four left? Yeah, I think left four.

755
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 2: Left, Like, honestly, I think I would go Warren Cameron

756
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 2: to Coney Cavalley. And I know that that's kind of

757
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 2: backwards in terms of matchup, but that's in terms of

758
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,400
Speaker 2: how I like them as pictures. So and you know,

759
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,800
Speaker 2: I love what you said about like it's super risky

760
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 2: and I'm like, well, yeah, that's why people listen to us,

761
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 2: so we can tell them the super risky things that

762
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 2: they should be doing. And yeah, I think that I

763
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 2: think all of them have risk. But that's the order

764
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 2: i'd put.

765
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:55,440
Speaker 1: Him in, Okay, I won't argue with him. Warren is

766
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 1: like I feel like he probably has the most upside,

767
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,840
Speaker 1: but also like really tough man, Like I get like

768
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 1: you said, Roman Anthey is out there with the Red Sox,

769
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 1: but it's at Boston against Detroit. That's a tough one.

770
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: Like there's there's some blow up potential there. I almost

771
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:13,920
Speaker 1: feel like Noah camera is probably the safest one. But

772
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 1: I do worry about that regression, you know, coming Like

773
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 1: I said, I don't want to be the one holding

774
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: the potato and the regression comes.

775
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, and also his his lack of strike odes I

776
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 2: would rather roll the dice, not on a blow up obviously,

777
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:28,840
Speaker 2: but I'll give up a couple more runs if I

778
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 2: can get more shrike ouds.

779
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: Okay. So we've talked a lot about those let's jump

780
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:39,520
Speaker 1: over to waivers. Some of those players might be on waivers,

781
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 1: but let's talk about our you know, this is the

782
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:45,080
Speaker 1: segment we call Waiver Central. Let's talk about our favorite

783
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 1: hitters and pictures of the week, and we'll start with

784
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,520
Speaker 1: you your with your favorite waiver wire hitter.

785
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 2: So I was just looking and again, like right now,

786
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 2: it's hard when we're going to recommend these names to

787
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 2: just check and see if they're rostered kids, like for like,

788
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 2: my choice, my first choice for waivers is Joe Adell,

789
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,800
Speaker 2: just based on where our VBR has him thirty eighth

790
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 2: overall for the rest of the for the rest of season,

791
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 2: and I think I feel like he's available because people

792
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 2: have dropped him, picked him up, and dropped him so

793
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,560
Speaker 2: many times. So it's like, just take a look if

794
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,279
Speaker 2: he's out there. If it's a deeper league, I'm sure

795
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:23,479
Speaker 2: he's not. I also threw Tyler Freeman on there rest

796
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 2: of the season. Our VBR weirdly likes a lot of

797
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 2: Rockies and most of them are totally available, So I

798
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 2: would kind of go down that path if you look ahead,

799
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,080
Speaker 2: and again that's just rest of season. If we're looking

800
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:39,399
Speaker 2: at just next week, Adele would be more of my pick,

801
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 2: I think. Yeah.

802
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 1: And the one thing I want to mention that we

803
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:43,760
Speaker 1: were talking about this a little bit before the show,

804
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 1: but it can it's a little difficult to recommend names

805
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 1: right now because roster percentages it just means nothing at

806
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 1: this point, Like they're all if you look at the

807
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 1: different sites, they're wildly different. ESPN is a shallower format,

808
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:57,880
Speaker 1: so it's always going to be lower. But even like

809
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: Yahoo versus CBS, there are so many leagues where you know,

810
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,319
Speaker 1: like I said, we're into September, football has started, and

811
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 1: as much as we don't want to admit it, a

812
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 1: lot of managers have checked out. Sometimes entire leagues have

813
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 1: checked out. You know, if like if one manager, one

814
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:17,360
Speaker 1: or two managers have really you know, taken off and

815
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 1: are you know, the two juggernauts in their league, it's

816
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: a good chance like half of that league isn't paying

817
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,879
Speaker 1: attention anymore, and so roster percentage might be all over

818
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 1: the place, and so we might be recommending players who

819
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 1: already rostered in your league. But just know there are

820
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:32,440
Speaker 1: a ton of leagues where these guys are not rostered,

821
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: and so if you're in one of them, you can

822
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,160
Speaker 1: pick them up. We don't have to spend a ton

823
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 1: of time on it because we already talked about them.

824
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,800
Speaker 1: But my favorite hitter for this week is Ramon Loreano, who,

825
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 1: like I said, roster percentage are all over the place. But

826
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 1: he's very available according to the numbers that I have,

827
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,799
Speaker 1: and then Dalton Vorschrow even more available he does. He

828
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 1: has six games this week. He does have two lefties,

829
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 1: but he's been very good since coming back. What about

830
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:57,720
Speaker 1: your favorite pitcher, Yeah.

831
00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 2: My favorite pittuer just came back. He's only got one star,

832
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:04,880
Speaker 2: Luis Garcia for Houston. He actually has two starts next week.

833
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 2: According to our probable pictures tool. He gets the Angels

834
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:12,839
Speaker 2: at home. We've talked about facing them anytime we can. Uh,

835
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,840
Speaker 2: he has to go to Texas later in the in

836
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:18,719
Speaker 2: the week, but I would still feel pretty I'm okay

837
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 2: rolling him out there. I think that he looked good

838
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:21,880
Speaker 2: in his first startback.

839
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 1: He might end up as only one start. I was

840
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 1: looking at three different projections and maybe three or three

841
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 1: or four, but there was some disagreement on whether or

842
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 1: not he would have two starts attend to and he's

843
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: only going to get one based on what they're doing.

844
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 2: But we'll as long as it's against the Angels, as

845
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 2: long as it's the first one, then.

846
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 1: It might be against the Braves.

847
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:48,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, well either way, I'll still take him.

848
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:51,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's looking like it's going to be against the Braves.

849
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 1: My favorite picture is someone we've alread talked about the

850
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 1: last few weeks. Luis Morales. Still very available, extremely available

851
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 1: on Yahoo and ESPN and even on CBS, which is

852
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:06,759
Speaker 1: you know, kind of this time of year, like those

853
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 1: are more realistic, and you know, a lot of those

854
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: leagues are more active because a lot of you have

855
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,880
Speaker 1: to pay for and so those leagues are more active.

856
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 1: But even then sixty percent roster dow on CBS, which

857
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:18,160
Speaker 1: means he's still available on a lot of you know,

858
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 1: CBS leagues. And then he has a two step who

859
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:27,959
Speaker 1: is he facing filibuster Red Sox and reds both at

860
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 1: home in that Sacramento ballpark. So two starts. But I

861
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,799
Speaker 1: like him. I think he's good and I think he'll

862
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 1: be okay. And then Slaye Koney we already talked about.

863
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 1: And then as for some deep LEA targets, has Young

864
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 1: Kim is now the shorts off for the Braves. Seems

865
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: like he's going to get some run as the every

866
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,040
Speaker 1: day shorts up there if you need some speed. Tyler

867
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 1: Wells is back with the Orioles. Jason Alexander is a

868
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 1: name who pitches for the Astros, and it looks like

869
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,360
Speaker 1: he and not Luis Cartia could be the two star pictures.

870
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, can we can? I just add that I refreshed

871
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:05,359
Speaker 2: that page and it went back to this week, so

872
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:07,560
Speaker 2: I was looking at the I was looking at the

873
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 2: wrong week, so nobody has to comment on it. I

874
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 2: know that I screwed that up.

875
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:14,160
Speaker 1: Cheers, Okay, Okay, So it looks like Luis Garcia one

876
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:17,759
Speaker 1: start and Jason Alexander two starts, but at Toronto and

877
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 1: at Atlanta. So that is why we're talking deep league

878
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 1: name because if you need, you know, in super deep

879
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:29,040
Speaker 1: leagues two starts can be good almost no matter what,

880
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 1: unless they really kill you. I wrote Jose Cantana evergreen

881
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,400
Speaker 1: pickup because he's just been someone who's just been like

882
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 1: turned to burn and the rosters all season long. And

883
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 1: for the most part it's gone pretty well. Not a

884
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 1: ton of strikeouts, but he also hasn't really destroyed you.

885
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:45,799
Speaker 1: So I have basically and he's a two star pitcher too.

886
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:47,800
Speaker 1: I feel like in a couple of leagues, I have

887
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 1: basically picked him up every time he was a two

888
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: star pitcher and then dropped him and then just like

889
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,520
Speaker 1: done that all season long, and no one else has

890
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:58,959
Speaker 1: grabbed him this. Jacob Latz is a very deep name,

891
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 1: and he also like isn't kind of like fully stretched out,

892
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 1: and it's not like one hundred percent he's projected to

893
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 1: be a two star pitcher. It's not like one hundred

894
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 1: percent he's gonna start all of those games, and so

895
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:12,879
Speaker 1: kind of waits ye over the weekend, just make sure

896
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 1: he's locked in for two starts as of right now,

897
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:17,720
Speaker 1: it projects to start against the Brewers and at the Mets,

898
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:21,360
Speaker 1: but he's kind of like just still being stretched out,

899
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:24,520
Speaker 1: but in a deep league two starts again, not the

900
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,759
Speaker 1: best matchup still because Brewers are Mets not great. And

901
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:30,880
Speaker 1: then Austin Hayes, we already talked about Ben slumping, but

902
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 1: he is warming up and a VBR of forty six

903
00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 1: projected for the upcoming week and now struggling with lineup decisions.

904
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 1: Our lineup assistant recommends optimal lineup suggestions to maximize your

910
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 1: some pitching streamers, which you've kind of already talked about

911
00:44:57,560 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 1: a lot on this show. But we'll go day by

912
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:03,760
Speaker 1: day and our two star picture competition. Take it away, Kelly,

00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:12,319
Speaker 1: can take it, I'll talk toss it to you again.

917
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:17,560
Speaker 2: Okay. So I was looking and I I don't know

918
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 2: how to pronounce his last name. I'm gonna call him.

919
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 2: Is it Brian Bergert Bert? Okay? You have to understand

920
00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,720
Speaker 2: that I always, for whatever reason, want to make names French.

921
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:31,239
Speaker 2: So I was like, is it Ryan Burge? Even though

922
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:32,640
Speaker 2: you know that doesn't work at all.

923
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 1: I actually know someone whose first name is Burge. How

924
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:35,960
Speaker 1: about that?

925
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:37,160
Speaker 2: Well that's interesting.

926
00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, do she haven't have my uncle's mistress's son.

927
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:44,680
Speaker 2: Okay, have him call me and see how he pronounces

928
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:48,240
Speaker 2: all these names anyway. Yeah, So he gets Cleveland at home.

929
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 2: He's been pretty good from what I've seen, and he's

930
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,240
Speaker 2: got a two six one the RA one O nine whip,

931
00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 2: So I would run him out there, no problem and

932
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:01,200
Speaker 2: see what happened. And it's not like I'm trying to

933
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:04,319
Speaker 2: pick on the Guardians, but they're just you know, they're

934
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 2: they're weighted on base average according to our streamer tools,

935
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,400
Speaker 2: just I might be like the lowest aside from the Rockies.

936
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:14,640
Speaker 2: So I'll take it. On Tuesday, Kyle Bradish, who we

937
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 2: talked about a ton last week, gets and.

938
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 1: He's another one. Sorry not to cut you off, but

939
00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:22,080
Speaker 1: he's another one who's like roster percentage all over the place.

940
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 1: So like, yeah, flip a coin if he's available in

941
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:25,879
Speaker 1: your league, for sure.

942
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:28,040
Speaker 2: But if he is available, pick him up. Because he

943
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:32,840
Speaker 2: gets Pittsburgh at home on Tuesday. On Wednesday, I believe

944
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:38,280
Speaker 2: Ryan Weathers is back and he is going to face Washington,

945
00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 2: and I believe at home, So I'll take the I'll

946
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:48,640
Speaker 2: take his return in a Miami ballpark and against Washington,

947
00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:53,120
Speaker 2: who doesn't. They don't really scare me at all. On Thursday,

948
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:56,239
Speaker 2: I don't know on Thursday. I mean, I don't know.

949
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:59,920
Speaker 2: Uh Ian Seymour apparently is my new best friend. I

950
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 2: think I should just order a jersey. I have no

951
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:09,520
Speaker 2: idea why, And like tonight he is. He's coming in

952
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:11,560
Speaker 2: in like bulk relief. So they're gonna let Griffin Jackson

953
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:13,440
Speaker 2: pitch the first inning and then he's gonna come in.

954
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 2: But like if he pitches, if he pitched, but why

955
00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 2: not if he pitches five innings, even if it starts

956
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:21,919
Speaker 2: in the second and they win, that's an easy win.

957
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,040
Speaker 2: Like he he could go for and get the win.

958
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:28,080
Speaker 2: But I like his stats. And again he gets the

959
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 2: white socks. It's in. It's in Chicago. But you know

960
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:36,480
Speaker 2: he's he's one of my lefties. So I'm good with that. Friday,

961
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:40,359
Speaker 2: Jonah Toong, who you talked about. You talked about him

962
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:46,160
Speaker 2: last week, he gets uh Texas at home. Same deal

963
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:48,160
Speaker 2: with the roster percentage. He may be out there and

964
00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:49,880
Speaker 2: he may not be out there. We don't have a

965
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 2: ton of we don't have a ton of sample size.

966
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:54,759
Speaker 2: He's going to be going up against a gram, but

967
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,359
Speaker 2: that's not as scary now as it was once upon

968
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:03,080
Speaker 2: a time. Saturday, Parker Messic is scheduled to face the

969
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 2: White Sox. His whip is a little ugly, but I again,

970
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 2: well I'm not buying that the White Sox have turned

971
00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:14,600
Speaker 2: everything around at this point. And again, Lefty, I'll take it.

972
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:20,239
Speaker 2: And Sunday was a mess. So I didn't see a

973
00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,920
Speaker 2: ton of people that I really liked there and I

974
00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:28,799
Speaker 2: simply wrote down Braxton Ashcraft because he's going against the UH,

975
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 2: he's going against Washington, and they had him fairly high up.

976
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:36,520
Speaker 2: So those are my streamers. If you see somebody else

977
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:39,759
Speaker 2: on Sunday, you should totally jump in, because I it was.

978
00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:41,319
Speaker 2: That was not a good day.

979
00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:46,400
Speaker 1: I almost included him in a previous in one of

980
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:50,959
Speaker 1: our earlier segments as like a potential pickup for those reasons.

981
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:53,800
Speaker 1: But I will say another name I wanted to mention

982
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:57,040
Speaker 1: someone we talked about last week is Peyton Toley, who

983
00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:00,200
Speaker 1: looked very good. He did eno. We talked about him

984
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:04,320
Speaker 1: and Jonah Toongu, I think last week and their impending

985
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 1: debuts and both looked very good, and so he is

986
00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 1: protected to start on Wednesday against the Athletics, and so

987
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 1: I would recommend him as well if he's available in

988
00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:18,880
Speaker 1: your league. I was able to pick him up in

989
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:21,680
Speaker 1: one of my daily leagues, the one of the leagues

990
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:23,600
Speaker 1: where I'm still alive, I was able to pick him up,

991
00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:25,879
Speaker 1: which I'm trying to change that league away from daily

992
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:28,360
Speaker 1: pickups because I hate, like, because it's just like a

993
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 1: free agent free for all, Like if you just like

994
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 1: see some news, you can just grab him and like

995
00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:35,640
Speaker 1: and you know, pick someone up. So I kind of

996
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,560
Speaker 1: wish we were doing waivers, but in that at least

997
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:39,959
Speaker 1: in that case, I was able to pick up Peyton

998
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:41,879
Speaker 1: totally and so far it looks very good.

999
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 2: Cool.

1000
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:45,560
Speaker 1: So that's the one extra one I would mention. I

1001
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:50,399
Speaker 1: don't see anyone that I, you know, definitely would include over.

1002
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,799
Speaker 1: I like Michael McGreevy, he gets the Seattle Mariners. That's

1003
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,160
Speaker 1: also on Wednesday, but you know, he would be probably

1004
00:49:57,239 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 1: my third or fourth choice on Wednesday, So you don't

1005
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 1: need to go out of your way. Tyler Wells, we

1006
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:06,239
Speaker 1: already previously mentioned he is, uh. He has recently you know,

1007
00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:08,359
Speaker 1: he recently returned, but he is going to start against

1008
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 1: the Pirates. Good matchup also on Wednesday, unfortunately, So if

1009
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:12,640
Speaker 1: you just want to stack all your starts on Wednesday,

1010
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:16,480
Speaker 1: you can do that. But yeah, other than that, I

1011
00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:19,760
Speaker 1: think you did good job. Thank you for your Grammer

1012
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:25,880
Speaker 1: against the Blue Jays. I don't want to do that, Okay,

1013
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:30,759
Speaker 1: Kavali Saturday against the Pirates. Like we already mentioned, two

1014
00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 1: star picture, So if you want to get into bed

1015
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:38,359
Speaker 1: with that, you can. Now what did you say?

1016
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 2: It's the best of luck with that. You like Choconi

1017
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:42,840
Speaker 2: way more than I do. I think so.

1018
00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:48,560
Speaker 1: No, that wasn't CHACONI that was Kavale. Sorry, Kavali against

1019
00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 1: the against the Pirates.

1020
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:50,520
Speaker 2: I'm sorry.

1021
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:54,160
Speaker 1: So now to start picture competition, let's check in on

1022
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:59,920
Speaker 1: how the previous what's not where it was Kevin Gossman

1023
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:05,759
Speaker 1: for you, Cam Schlittler with no nickname for me, and

1024
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:10,120
Speaker 1: it was a bloodbath Cam Slitler forty three points, Kevin

1025
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:13,359
Speaker 1: Gosman twenty eight point five points. Pretty clear victory for

1026
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:16,040
Speaker 1: you boy, I mean Shutler.

1027
00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:18,400
Speaker 2: It's not that much of a blood bath. The points,

1028
00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:22,320
Speaker 2: I certainly say so, but aside from the earned runs,

1029
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:24,840
Speaker 2: it's not awful in comparison.

1030
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:29,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, we forgot to include quality starts in there. Yeah.

1031
00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:33,680
Speaker 1: So Cam Slitler twelve innings, eight hits, one earned run,

1032
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:38,959
Speaker 1: four walks, sixteen strikeouts. Kevin Gossman thirteen namings pitch eleven hits,

1033
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:44,560
Speaker 1: five big earned runs, one walk, fifteen strikeouts. Cam Shulter

1034
00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:47,160
Speaker 1: forty three points, Kevin Gosman twenty eight point five points.

1035
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 1: Maybe not a bloodbath, but pretty clear victory, and which

1036
00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:55,279
Speaker 1: brings us the current standings nine to seven to two.

1037
00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 1: Me up on you and Worm pretty sing that we

1038
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:01,839
Speaker 1: have two time this year though, nine to seven and two,

1039
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,560
Speaker 1: and then includes the Horme Run derby result which Worm won.

1040
00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:09,160
Speaker 1: And so let's go to this week who, well, actually

1041
00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:11,719
Speaker 1: the active week right now? I have Dylan Cs, you

1042
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:14,880
Speaker 1: have Drew Rasmussen, and it feels like, for like the

1043
00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:16,880
Speaker 1: third week in a row, this has been a weird

1044
00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:21,319
Speaker 1: week for pitching. For picking two start picture names. I

1045
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:24,680
Speaker 1: actually didn't look at who you picked and then picked.

1046
00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:26,359
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, let me see if I've used

1047
00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 1: this guy already, And I just control ft to find

1048
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:32,520
Speaker 1: anim on the sheet, only to realize that you already

1049
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:34,759
Speaker 1: had him in as yours. So why don't you go

1050
00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:38,800
Speaker 1: first and tell everyone who our mutual two star pitcher

1051
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:39,719
Speaker 1: pick would have been.

1052
00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:41,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you've already used him.

1053
00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:43,200
Speaker 1: That was gonna be my That's why I was looking

1054
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:43,640
Speaker 1: to see.

1055
00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:45,720
Speaker 2: If I had Yeah, so you had used him, Worm hadn't.

1056
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:47,719
Speaker 2: So I was like, all right, I'll throw it in

1057
00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:50,400
Speaker 2: because I'm not taking credit again just for reverence, like

1058
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:50,840
Speaker 2: I'm not.

1059
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was searching.

1060
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:54,560
Speaker 2: I'm not taking the loss for this at all. Yeah,

1061
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:58,399
Speaker 2: so whatever, No, I'm taking on Brian Wu. He's got

1062
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:02,000
Speaker 2: two starts, supposedly, both at home against the Cardinals and

1063
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:03,000
Speaker 2: the Angels.

1064
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:05,880
Speaker 1: Now if I say, woo woo woo, Kenny woo, do

1065

00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:19,479
Speaker 1: You've never seen Mighty That one is the best one.

1070
00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:21,879
Speaker 2: Oh dear, Okay, it's not, but we can talk about

1071
00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:22,239
Speaker 2: that later.

1072
00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:26,719
Speaker 1: It's the best one. Worm. I had never seen Mighty Ducks.

1073
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 1: We had no idea what it's talking about.

1074
00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:31,480
Speaker 2: We can't do anything off of Worms movies. So I mean, like,

1075
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:34,000
Speaker 2: I will forgive you for Cobb as long as we

1076
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:38,360
Speaker 2: can talk about the other ones. Worms movie choices are interesting.

1077
00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:42,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, brutal, and plus he doesn't watch the Simpsons and

1078
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:46,960
Speaker 1: so he doesn't appreciate any of my Simpsons references, although

1079
00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:48,560
Speaker 1: he made one of his own recently. He had one

1080
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,439
Speaker 1: of like the three clips in his life he's seen.

1081
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:53,680
Speaker 1: He made a he made a reference. So you're going

1082
00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:57,880
Speaker 1: with Brian wo I am going with Logan Webb against

1083
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 1: the He has got two starts at home against Diamondbacks

1084
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:04,440
Speaker 1: against the Dodgers, so hopefully that works out well for me.

1085
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:07,719
Speaker 1: But there weren't a lot of other great names. Most

1086
00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:09,560
Speaker 1: of the names we talked about earlier in this episode,

1087
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:11,640
Speaker 1: who are kind of like fringe two star pitchers, and

1088
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:14,480
Speaker 1: so it was basically one of these two names or

1089
00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:17,839
Speaker 1: one of those names, and so I decided to go

1090
00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:22,319
Speaker 1: with the safer, you know, ace level name, despite you know,

1091
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:25,239
Speaker 1: not the best matchups but not the worst. It all

1092
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 1: depends on what the Dodgers decided to do that day,

1093
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 1: But there weren't a lot of other options that we

1094
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,600
Speaker 1: haven't picked. Garret Crochet was the clear number one option,

1095
00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:35,160
Speaker 1: but we both are to use them. And then after that,

1096
00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:45,040
Speaker 1: Slay Chacone, Ryan Bergertonjasetana and Aaron Nola You Darvish, it's

1097
00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:49,040
Speaker 1: got two starts. But other than that, that's we've already

1098
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:50,640
Speaker 1: talked about everyone and getting two stars, and these were

1099
00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:53,040
Speaker 1: kind of like the clear top two other than Garrett

1100
00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:58,160
Speaker 1: Garrett Crochet, who we've already used. Anything else before we wrap.

1101
00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:01,359
Speaker 2: Up, No, I think I think we're good and good

1102
00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:03,319
Speaker 2: luck to everyone if you're still in it.

1103
00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:07,399
Speaker 1: So yeah, And I will say this is the time

1104
00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:10,360
Speaker 1: of year where I tried to be as like specific

1105
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:12,319
Speaker 1: as I could with like lineup decisions and stuff. But

1106
00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:14,120
Speaker 1: if you have questions, toss them on YouTube. I'll hop

1107
00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:16,400
Speaker 1: in there and answer what I can, because I know

1108
00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:18,800
Speaker 1: it's kind of a you know, you're setting your lineups

1109
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 1: and it's kind of a weird time, and we're getting

1110
00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:22,840
Speaker 1: towards the end of the season, especially, you know, if

1111
00:55:22,880 --> 00:55:24,399
Speaker 1: you're in head to head, you're in the playoffs, maybe

1112
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:26,799
Speaker 1: in the championship already, depending on how early your league lies.

1113
00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:28,480
Speaker 1: To do that, I try and avoid some of the

1114
00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:31,040
Speaker 1: silliness at the end of the season. Then in roto

1115
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,120
Speaker 1: trying to finish strong. We'll see how many more episodes

1116
00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:36,120
Speaker 1: we have. We definitely have at least one more to

1117
00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:39,480
Speaker 1: kind of close things out, possibly two more. We'll see

1118
00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:41,160
Speaker 1: how the schedule goes. But also let us know in

1119
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:42,840
Speaker 1: the comments what you want to do with that. You know,

1120
00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:46,080
Speaker 1: how many more episodes you want? Ten? One? Two?

1121
00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:48,120
Speaker 2: What do you want to talk about in the last one?

1122
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. We might do one. We might do

1123
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,520
Speaker 1: like one more, skip a week while Kelli's on vacation,

1124
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:58,400
Speaker 1: and then come back and close things out. But we'll

1125
00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:00,440
Speaker 1: see how it goes. But definitely we'll be back next

1126
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:04,239
Speaker 1: week with some more information. But in the meantime, let
