00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:45,600
Speaker 1: That was everything good?

15
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,160
Speaker 2: Sure, let's do that, but let me let me ask

16
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 2: you what you would do in this situation.

17
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 1: I don't have That is a no. I'm just gonna

18
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: take that will just.

19
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 2: All the days, let's just put it in there. So

20
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 2: I went to my kid they had a birthday party

21
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 2: and I was there. Make this quick, and I'm sitting

22
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 2: in one of those like low beach chair type of things,

23
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 2: just sitting back and the host of the house is

24
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 2: talking to my wife and goes, oh, wow, that's a

25
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 2: massive spider, and and she looks down at me. Something

26
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 2: you need to know about me. I'm massively arachnophobic. The

27
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 2: one thing I am terrified of is spiders. And I

28
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 2: had a moment where I had to think to myself,

29
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 2: do I go into my you know, but that's what

30
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 2: I do. I go into the how I feel where

31
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 2: I want to jump up scream going like that like

32
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 2: that would be the scream. Or do I slowly get up,

33
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 2: you know, very manly like, oh either spider there. And

34
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: I decided to do the more manly thing. And it

35
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 2: was the biggest, nastiest It's like a wolf spider and uh,

36
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 2: it ruined my weekend. I still I'm dreaming about it.

37
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 2: I'm dreaming about it right now.

38
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: Wow. That's a good story there. Yeah, Arizona, you got

39
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: some weird got the scorpions out there, You got a

40
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: lot of things.

41
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 2: You know what. Scorpions don't affect me. I've stepped on

42
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 2: a scorpion. We've I've seen hundreds. We had a house.

43
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 2: I remember we bought a house. First night we stayed there.

44
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 2: We found twenty scorpions around. Scorpions don't affect me, but man,

45
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 2: despite it was a go look up a wolf spider.

46
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 2: It was at my feet and she's casually like, hey,

47
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 2: look there's a little spider, and I'm like, well look

48
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 2: at me. Gonna go drown myself in the pool. Sorry, guys,

49
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 2: bye bye.

50
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: There you go. All right, Well, let's talk some baseball.

51
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: On that note, Justin Verlander, you know, he went eight innings,

52
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: not eight legs, so he was very good. Finally for

53
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: the New York Mets, they got good outings on the

54
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: same day from Surezer and from Justin Verlander, who knows

55
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 1: what to say. So it looks like, you know that

56
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: that that one big night, that comeback win really kind

57
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 1: of spurned the steam on. We'll see if it continues

58
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 1: to go. Obviously the Guardians having some issues of their own.

59
00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: Good sels air mirrors back. He at a home run

60
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 1: yesterd so that's positive. He's had a quiet beginning to

61
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: the season. Still good, which is not quite Jose Ramirez,

62
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: Oh my god, he's so great. He's MVP kind of season.

63
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: It's it'll be interesting to see if he's available on

64
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: some trade potential talks here. Ashoy Otani was delivered another

65
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 1: great performance. No decision though for him against the Twins

66
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 1: on Sunday. One run, two hits, six innings for him.

67
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: We got a return for a Yankee, so Damingo hermon

68
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: out with the suspension. Louis Severino scattered four hits, struck

69
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 1: out five guys, one earned run his season debut on Sunday.

70
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: So Severino rest of season, Welsh, This is a picture

71
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: who's pitching for a contract. This is a picture of

72
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: the Yankees desperately need to perform. Well, what's your rest

73
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: of season outlook for Severino? Now that he's back. He

74
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: looks sharp in this first outing. Are you somebody that's

75
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: back in let's go Louis Severino or do you have

76
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: any concerns because we have seen some inconsistencies from him

77
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: over the last few years, although last season a strong finish,

78
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: no doubt. Yeah.

79
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 2: I think a lot of the inconsistency is just about also,

80
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 2: like health and being out there. And now that he's back,

81
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 2: I do think they're going to baby him. I think

82
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 2: he's going to be babied over the next couple starts.

83
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 2: I don't expect to see any seven inning outings or

84
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 2: anything like that. But you know, as far as in

85
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 2: line with who he is, K percentage was there in

86
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: that first start, he looked good. They really babied the

87
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 2: entire rehab process. So actually, I think this is a

88
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 2: really solid time. I don't think the price has caught

89
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 2: up to Louis Severino, you know what I mean, Like,

90
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 2: I don't think Louis Severino can be over this season

91
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 2: is collectively there on who he is coming off of

92
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 2: this injury. So to your point, this might be one

93
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 2: of those guys you said before we were talking about trades.

94
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 2: This might be a guy that you can go acquire

95
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 2: and it's like ninety cents on the dollar type of

96
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 2: thing where you know you're paying for Louis Severino. But

97
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 2: that's not really the guy he's going to be. Because

98
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: he can be one of the front line aces for

99
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 2: this team, well.

100
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 1: He absolutely can be, and I think with a contract

101
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: on the line for him this year, I would expect that.

102
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,479
Speaker 1: I'm expecting Louis Severino to be.

103
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 2: A guy that are you a big contract your guy?

104
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: Well? Yeah, because because I used to have his argument

105
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 1: with Sealy where you know, we both approach this argument

106
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: in a different way, whereas I took the data and

107
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: over I think it was like over a ten year

108
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: period of basically you know, all star level, like well

109
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: above replacement level players, and when you look at most

110
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: of the time they perform at their level or above

111
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: almost thirty percent of the time, more a higher rather

112
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 1: than their normal level of productivity. The problem is a

113
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: lot of these the data when you get to the

114
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: contract year guys. So many players are on one year

115
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: deals who aren't very good, who are under replacement players.

116
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: They taint the data. So you look, I said, oh,

117
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 1: players don't play better in contract years. No, bad players

118
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: don't play good in contract years, and that's why they're

119
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 1: on a contract year every year. There's a difference. You

120
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: can't take it from that data. You have to take

121
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 1: it from the top third of the league and look

122
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: at when they are free agents, and typically more often

123
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 1: than not, they play. I think it's about I think

124
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: when I did the research for Black Book.

125
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 2: I remember you going through this. I remember you had

126
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 2: like a study you had done with this.

127
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: I did. I did because I was I knew I

128
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: was right. I needed to find the data that backed

129
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: me up. And the then the X plug in the data,

130
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 1: so to speak, was the fact that if you look

131
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: too much about every free agent, well, yeah, every free

132
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 1: agent is not good because most of the league is

133
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 1: a free agent over a year and it's baseball, and

134
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: that you can look at the NFL the same kind

135
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: of concept. But baseball, especially the players that are above

136
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: replacement value typically play at their level or above again

137
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: above it was more almost twenty eight or I think

138
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 1: twenty nine percent of the time above of twenty eight

139
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,239
Speaker 1: percent above their normal.

140
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 2: So you're saying millions of dollars is going to incent

141
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 2: players to play better.

142
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 1: That's crazy, I know, even great crazy time. It's crazy.

143
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 2: And you know what's even grazier. There might be a

144
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 2: correlation to the more dollars that they get that they

145
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 2: play even better. Like the higher dollar guys even play better.

146
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 2: Isn't that great? And then the Wan Soto didn't get

147
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 2: the memo, but everybody else.

148
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: Well, I mean he's still got time to get it.

149
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: I just think that might be a batters I think

150
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 1: with him in that ballpark, something about I don't know,

151
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: maybe I don't know what it is, maybe just not

152
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: a West Coast guy, I don't know. I mean, it's Heaven.

153
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: It's a big place. I'd love to go to San

154
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: Diego and just stay there forever. Christopher Morrell, can he

155
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: stay forever? Another home run for him? He has eight

156
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: runs in eleven games. It's getting called up. He's a

157
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: fersatile player. But the slash right now three seventy three,

158
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 1: ninety six, nine to fifty seven with fifteen runs, fourteen

159
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: ribis and a steal for good measure, what do you

160
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: make of this guy? I mean, this has just been

161
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: an incredible talk about getting called up and being a

162
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: waiver wire return. Christopher Morell has been unbelievable.

163
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, they love Morel was one of the

164
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 2: best minor league players after they had sent him down,

165
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 2: so that wasn't even a question. Morell has got big

166
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 2: bat speed that puts up big, big home run numbers,

167
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 2: and he put up I think he was, like God,

168
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 2: I'm trying to remember it, but he had like eight

169
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 2: homers in his first eleven games, and he's one of

170
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 2: the very few players who have ever done that. A

171
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 2: sixty percent hard hit percentage. Right now, he's already put

172
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 2: up almost a fourteen EV max EV. His average is

173
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 2: around ninety three and a half. His problem is, and

174
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 2: we've got I think we've talked about this. It's a

175
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 2: big swing and miss is thirty seven percent strikeout rate

176
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 2: right thirty seven and a half percent strikeout rate right now,

177
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 2: So how is he going to live off of it?

178
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 2: He doesn't have any hits off of off speed pitches.

179
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 2: He's dominating fastballs right now, so he's gonna start to

180
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 2: get pitched differently. But that huge bat speed is keeping

181
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 2: him in the game. It's kind of a hot old

182
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 2: school hobbier bias esque, if you will, you know what

183
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 2: I'm saying, Like there's a lot I did not like

184
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 2: that equivalent, No, no, but like the it's the good

185
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 2: hobbyer buys because thirty seven percent striker, Like we're lotting

186
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 2: a player. We're like, oh my god, he's got thirty

187
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 2: seven percent strikeout rate. That's really bad. But you know,

188
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 2: he's been such an offensive force. You're just gonna have

189
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 2: to watch and see how he adjusts to win the league.

190
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 2: Adjust But like, it doesn't matter. He's he's awesome. He's

191
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,079
Speaker 2: a huge pickup. You hold on and you hope that

192
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 2: it holds the entire season.

193
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: Here's a question from Dan g one of the Peanuts

194
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: and Cracker Jacks of the chat. A league mate offered

195
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: Jordan Walker for morell in a keeper league. Who would

196
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,079
Speaker 1: rather have a keeper situation?

197
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 2: Jordan Walker, I would very much rather have it. So

198
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 2: he gets Jordan Wahite. That's a great ascept. That's like,

199
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 2: that's like the I want I want to play in

200
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 2: that league, and it's a sexy I of Dynasty as

201
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 2: so fun. Someone's like, ooh, look at this young guy

202
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 2: who's hitting a well. I'll give you the top prospect

203
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 2: in baseball for him because he's started for eleven games

204
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 2: in the miners and you're like, yes, give me, give me.

205
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: Those are the best. Those are absolutely the best. Chris Sale,

206
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: he's starting to pitch pretty well. Uh this is another

207
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 1: good performance for Chris Sale. He's starting to look like himself.

208
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,839
Speaker 1: Eight strikeout, six oh. Third. James Paxson was good again

209
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: over the weekend. Uh. I said this on Sunday on

210
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 1: the television show. I said, if Sale can be Sale

211
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: and Paxton continues to pitch the way he is looked

212
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: so far in these first two outings, the Red Sox

213
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: can start to get back into this race because it's

214
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: the balance schedule again, so they don't have to beat

215
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: up on each other as much in that division where

216
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:57,959
Speaker 1: I think most of the good teams in the America

217
00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: League are in the East. I think we can all

218
00:09:59,480 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: agree on it.

219
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 2: About to say, you don't want to that's it.

220
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to be playing. Advantage could get back

221
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: in this thing.

222
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 2: For that team, It might be the biggest advantage in

223
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 2: baseball that they don't have to every other day go

224
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 2: up against Toronto and then go over to Tampa Bay

225
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,319
Speaker 2: and then have to battle it out with the Yankees

226
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 2: every year. I completely agree.

227
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: Man, Yeah, as long as they will make Chrisale wear

228
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: a jersey he doesn't like v NEX for christ.

229
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 2: Don't bring any kids into the I guess that was

230
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 2: Chris Sale, right.

231
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: Adam has had a lot of funny, weird.

232
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 2: Story He's like cut up the jersey and told the

233
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 2: kids again I don't remember. He does a lot of

234
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 2: weird stuff.

235
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: Got Mitch Keller. He's been doing a lot of weird stuff.

236
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 1: We just I can't stop talking about mich Keller. Another

237
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 1: eight strikeouts, two runs on Saturday and then no decision

238
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: against the d Backs. But oh my god, man, Mitch

239
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: Keller is just unstoppable.

240
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,959
Speaker 2: Well, you know. And he's a sneaky bet right now. So,

241
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 2: like I was a little detached yesterday from a lot

242
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 2: of stuff. I didn't go. I didn't like wake up

243
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 2: and do my uh you know, my kind of gambling preps.

244
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 2: For whatever reason, Sundays is such a great day to bet.

245
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 2: I've kind of taken my Sundays off. I did like

246
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 2: a quick glance in the morning and I was like,

247
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 2: and the only thing that stood out to me quickly,

248
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,719
Speaker 2: I look and it was Mitch Keller strikeouts at five

249
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 2: and a half and it was it was essentially even money.

250
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 2: It was minus one oh five. And I was like,

251
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 2: you know what, I don't even need to back up anything.

252
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 2: And I slapped two units on it. It's the only

253
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 2: bet I made. And he crushed it. And he would

254
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 2: have been the latter bet of the week because he

255
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,079
Speaker 2: hit up to eight. You see anything five and a

256
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 2: half in under and it's a bottom fifteen or even

257
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 2: bottom you know, I guess, like the top twenty teams

258
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 2: that strike out in the league, it's just something you're

259
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 2: gonna smash with Mitch Keller because he's becoming chalk, as

260
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 2: we'd say in fantasy football. He's becoming like a chalk

261
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 2: play right now, and it.

262
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: Is well because the market hasn't caught up to him. Well,

263
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: here's a good one from Matthew Hickey. Paxton er Biby

264
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,599
Speaker 1: rest of season Ooh, you're gonna hate my answer. I

265
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: think it's packed.

266
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 2: No, I know, I'm gonna say byby because I still

267
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 2: am like a little bit of a hater on backpacks.

268
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 2: And even though it's a couple of good starts, I

269
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 2: still like don't want to fully believe old school passions back.

270
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,079
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna go with Biby. But it's a lot

271
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 2: closer because Paxton's looking good.

272
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: Paxson's like the new hill, which is the old Rich Hill,

273
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 1: which is also the old Paxton. Redebtmer struck out twelve guys,

274
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 1: gave up three runs and five and two thirds against

275
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: the Twins. So unbelievable performance from Redebtmers. Also, since I

276
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,199
Speaker 1: dropped lance Lynn, he has had two good starts in

277
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,959
Speaker 1: a row. So who do you believe is back more

278
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: Redebt Meurs or lance Lynn.

279
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm a little bit more of a Redebtmers

280
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 2: guy overall. But you know I've been saying like the

281
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 2: thing for me with Lance Lynn. He just had crazy

282
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 2: good strikeout numbers that are going to follow in some

283
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 2: of the inconsistencies if he can get it back together.

284
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 2: But I'll go with Redebt Meers.

285
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,679
Speaker 1: Okay, let's get to the rookie lookie Jared Schuster recording

286
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 1: seven strikeouts over six eight things in one run ball

287
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: against the Mariners. So good on shooter. The Braves continue

288
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,079
Speaker 1: to just pull rabbits out of their hat with these guys,

289
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. It seems like forever the Braves do this.

290
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 1: Dodgers calling up Bobby Miller for a start on Tuesday,

291
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,439
Speaker 1: is that somebody you consider streaming? You like the Bobby Miller?

292
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 2: I do like the Bobby Miller. I don't know if

293
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 2: I love the matchup I don't know if I love

294
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 2: the matchup today for Gavin Stone going up against the Braves.

295
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 2: I don't know if I super love it for Bobby

296
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 2: Miller either. But Bobby Miller, he's got an arsenal I

297
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 2: talked about, you know, his stuff plus numbers. We're pretty

298
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 2: high for the five pitches in his first start. I

299
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 2: don't I haven't looked recently what they are, but I'm

300
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,319
Speaker 2: gonna imagine at least three of the five have stayed

301
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 2: one hundred plus on the stuff. Plus he's a big

302
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 2: strikeout option. I worry about like command around the zone,

303
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 2: but you know what, braves can get kind of free

304
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 2: swing in. So if you were desperate, I would attempt

305
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,079
Speaker 2: to not be putting these guys in against the braves.

306
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 2: But like Bobby Miller is someone that you could if

307
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 2: you know, you know, you can take a shot.

308
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean looking, AT's got to break right for him

309
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 1: to get.

310
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 2: You know what the best thing is you want to know,

311
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 2: you want to positive.

312
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 1: Let's be.

313
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 2: 's think about positive. So we're gonna be a positive show,

314
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 2: not negative. Me is, if you get a picture that

315
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 2: blows you up in the beginning of the week, guess

316
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 2: what you get to do. You get to have fun

317
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 2: the rest of the week. You get to stream, You

318
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 2: get to not worry about you get to not worry

319
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 2: about anything. You just got to throw guys out there

320
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 2: to do something for you, so you're not worry about

321
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 2: screwing up your ratios. You have less anxiety when someone

322
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 2: screws it up in the beginning. That's the positive.

323
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,559
Speaker 1: Yeah. Positive also for me at least because I like

324
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: Edward Julian. He got called up because Horiy Polanco went

325
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: on the IL, so he's gonna get another crack at this.

326
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 1: Also keep an eye on this one. Barn Buckston left

327
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: the game because of a knee issue yesterday. They say,

328
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: you could have stayed in the game. He's gonna have evaluation.

329
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: But someone's asking me about Royce Lewis, and you know,

330
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: I said, well, I don't think there's a path for

331
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: him right now right away, and an injury to Byron

332
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: Buckston would change my opinion of that substantially. Yes.

333
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 2: The only caveat is Royce Lewis has to complete the

334
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 2: sixty days because he was placed on the sixty day IL,

335
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 2: and I believe that takes him to the end of

336
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 2: the month, So you have at least a week before

337
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 2: Royce Lewis is even available to be called up. But

338
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 2: he has been crushing in the minors. Yeah, and he's

339
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 2: one of those guys that that's why I've liked him

340
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 2: because he can play so many different positions. I haven't

341
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 2: paid attention to where positionally he's been playing in the minors.

342
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 2: But again, you know when he was starting in the

343
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 2: outfield the other day, Yeah, when he was out here

344
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 2: in the AFL because he was one of those guys

345
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 2: I talked to. You know, they said, you're not playing

346
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 2: shortstop here.

347
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: He literally played like a well and they sent down Miranda.

348
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: So maybe third bases and opening things. Oh, he's a

349
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 1: great athlete. So the opportunity is there for him if

350
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 1: you know you have I know Gallo was the question

351
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 1: mark two, but you know they went to Julian here

352
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: with the second base situation with Polanco, but I mean

353
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: just one of those situations. Keep an eye on. Do

354
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: you want to be ahead of the game. Pick up

355
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: Lewis for a buck now, and don't wait in case

356
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 1: bucks and go ons on the il. You never know. Box,

357
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: Oh it's nothing. The next thing you know, he's out

358
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: for two months injuries. Speaking of Byron Box positive by

359
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: the way, let's go positive. Tyler Glass now look good

360
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: on Sunday. That's a good thing. He is going to

361
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: like six k's and six innings. That's what we want

362
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 1: to see from Tyler Glass. Now. So I imagine the

363
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: pitching on the weekend. You're probably going to see him

364
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 1: on Friday, maybe this week, maybe.

365
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 2: Thursday Friday, Yeah, yeah, Thursday Friday. One of them Friday

366
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 2: one starts all that matters.

367
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: Julio uri has went on the fifteen d il with

368
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 1: a hamstring train, so the Dodgers again continue to be

369
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: pressed in this rotation. So now Cinderguard, ginger Guard, and

370
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: Julio Urias, all of which are useless at this point.

371
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 1: The Angels activated Jared Walsh from the ten day IL.

372
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 1: Lance mccolors is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Sunday,

373
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: but don't get your hopes up anytime soon. They say

374
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: he's going to be out until at least the All

375
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 1: Star break probably, so there you go. So JP France

376
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: smooth sailing for the next month and a half at least.

377
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 2: So I tried to pick him up in NFPC last

378
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 2: night on Waivers. I ended up getting Gavin Stone, and

379
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 2: I think I overbid a tiny bit to get him,

380
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 2: and I was also trying to get France, but it

381
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 2: ended up being only Stone. I do think France is

382
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 2: still kind of sneaky.

383
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: Eloya Meenez a head of schedule in his recovery from

384
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: the appendectomy, so that's good, so we'll keep an eye

385
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 1: on that. Jacob de Gram is going to miss another

386
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Oh, what a surprise. It's a good

387
00:16:58,640 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: thing Dane Dunning was in my video.

388
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 2: I thought we were being positive, Joe, I am, I'm.

389
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,640
Speaker 1: Being positive about Dane Dunning. I liked it. Who pitches today?

390
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 1: More on Dane Dunning. In a moment, Padres putting many

391
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,640
Speaker 1: Machado on the IL with the fracture in the left hand.

392
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: We told you that was gonna happen a Nico Horner's back.

393
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: But Cody Bellinger goes to the IL after that little

394
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: knee issue there with that contusion, so it's retroactive to

395
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 1: the sixteenth, so he should be back sooner than later.

396
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 1: Three up and three down from the weekend. Framber Valdez

397
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 1: a shutout on Sunday to nothing as they beat the A's.

398
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: I know it's only the A's, but still, Framber's been awesome.

399
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,479
Speaker 1: Two four five ERA, seventy two k's and sixty six innings.

400
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 1: What a horse man. Framber is just so good. Josh

401
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 1: low three for four with a three run home or

402
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: four rebies and a steel on Sunday against the Brewers.

403
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 1: Josh Lowe's another guy that I get tons of questions

404
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: about because people are unsure if what they're seeing is

405
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 1: real in your opinion when it comes to Josh Lowe,

406
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 1: is he the real deal or do you think this

407
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: is a bit of a mirage and a hot streak

408
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:56,119
Speaker 1: we should be leery of.

409
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 2: Now I don't know if I think we might have

410
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 2: moved out of like mirage ish range. You know, there

411
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 2: was a time where he was going to just be

412
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 2: a platoony type of guy because he destroys right He's

413
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 2: one of the best in the league hitting three twenty two,

414
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 2: but he's also hitting two eighty six against lefties. But

415
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 2: look at this right here, one hundred and eighteen at

416
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 2: bats against righty's only fourteen against lefties. So I mean

417
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 2: he has been straight up platoon. But guess what in

418
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 2: the platoon he's got an over forty percent hard hit percentage.

419
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 2: He is in what is this the top Let's just

420
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 2: round it up to say, like the top ten percentile

421
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 2: in XBA X like wOBA expected wOBA, and in fact

422
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 2: he has a top one percent wOBA in the entire league.

423
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 2: All that tells you is like, the guy hits hard

424
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 2: and everything is working in his favor because guess what,

425
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 2: the Rays are utilizing him to succeed they're putting him

426
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 2: in the best position rightly succeed by platooning him. So

427
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 2: you know he's putting up video game stats in this platoon.

428
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 2: This is a great sign. Yeah, here we go.

429
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 1: I believe, if you look correctly, that the Josh low

430
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 1: Is will only succeed in day games between the hours

431
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 1: of one and four. So it's a two o'clock start,

432
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 1: he's going to be unavailable to us. But I believe,

433
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 1: you know, against the right handed pictures in that period

434
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 1: of time. Then on Tuesdays specifically, that is the time

435
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 1: to use Josh low and that's when we will use him. There.

436
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 2: You know he's going to come back down to earth

437
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,919
Speaker 2: a little bit. But guess what, the dude's also going

438
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 2: to have a twenty twenty season, So it's like.

439
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:30,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, you know what. Example, he's a big kid.

440
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 1: Sometimes with those big kids, the problem is sometimes like

441
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: those swings get out of whack right mechanically when you

442
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 1: got these guys who are like when you know, the

443
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 1: taller guys, sometimes you see it. Sometimes when they're in

444
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: a groove, they're great, but sometimes mechanically it's kind of

445
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,120
Speaker 1: like the the bigger pictures we've seen over the years.

446
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 1: Those guys were six eight six nine. Like those bigger guys,

447
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: sometimes they get a little out of it.

448
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I'm going to do the thing that

449
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 2: some people love, some people hate. But I interviewed Josh Lo.

450
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 2: He's another one of those guys that I spend some time.

451
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 1: They pick up these names are dropping everyone.

452
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 2: Yeah I'm Dropping'm sorry, I'm gonna drop the name. And

453
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 2: we chatted for bit and he's like, he's not even

454
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 2: as tall as me. I don't think. I think he's

455
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,360
Speaker 2: like a little bit shorter than me, but like he's

456
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 2: a really smart hitter, super competitive, and you know, he

457
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:09,479
Speaker 2: was known for his speed at the time. And when

458
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 2: I was talking with him, his brother was I think,

459
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 2: like Taxi squaded with the Rais as they were going

460
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 2: into the World Series and are somewhere in the playoffs,

461
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 2: and you know, he was like, hey, listen, you know

462
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 2: me and him are competitive about power numbers, Like it's

463
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 2: not just about speed. He's like, I'm faster, but I

464
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 2: also think I hit the ball harder. And you know,

465
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 2: this is a really really smart player that you know

466
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 2: he's going to get He's created himself more opportunity right now.

467
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 2: But what I was going to say before quickly is

468
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:36,920
Speaker 2: he is one of those guys. I think he's a

469
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 2: prime example of a guy that doesn't make sense in trades.

470
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 2: Do you know what I'm saying? Like, how does he

471
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 2: make sense in trades? If you wanted to trade for

472
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 2: anybody eleven Homer's nine stolen bases? What is anybody going

473
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 2: to give you for a guy who platoons, who puts

474
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 2: up those numbers? Nothing? So he's better on your team

475
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 2: than trying to go out and get what you're not

476
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 2: going to get for him. You know what I'm saying.

477
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 1: There's one hilarious comment in the chat that I can't

478
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 1: bring up here, but it is hilarious.

479
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 2: I actually appreciate it right here. We should have no relationship,

480
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 2: but you know.

481
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 1: You see the you see you see oh yeah, yeah,

00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 1: listening to the show. Uh, Braves stuck got nine times

487
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: against the logan Gilbert is so another good outing from him.

488
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 1: Three down Nick Son zel over four with three k's

489
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: Anthony Rizzo over four three k's and Hazel's wizardo five inning,

490
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: six earned runs, struck out eight but still yeah, not

491
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,640
Speaker 1: the best outing for him. But it's Monday, so it's

Speaker 1: time to get back to the Brian. But not the brind.

00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 2: it's that watermelon, but.

497
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 1: That's the that's waters with the Brian. But it's the

Speaker 1: do you have of the prize Picks today?

505
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,400
Speaker 2: All right, well, I did say we're gonna be positive,

506
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 2: but I do. I have a hater sandwich. But I

507
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 2: have a hater sandwich today, so it's not completely negative.

508
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 2: I didn't go hater's ball, I went hater sandwich. What

509
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 2: that means is that is two pieces of hate sandwich

510
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 2: between something we're positive about and guess what last time

511
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 2: the hater sandwich did cash. So we have to see

512
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 2: if this is the second hater sandwich that can cash.

513
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 2: So first up, the top bun is going to be

514
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 2: Harold Ramirez hits run RBI one and a half under.

515
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 2: We're going under today against Chris Bassett. I'm gonna just

516
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 2: give you both the hating pieces. The bottom hating piece

517
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 2: is Michael Garcia hits run RBI one and a half under,

518
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 2: and that is sandwich between a nice old juicy slab

519
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 2: of Bailey Ober strikeouts over at five and a half.

520
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 2: So that is my hater sandwich again. It is Harold

521
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 2: Ramirez hits runs RBI under Oberk's over and mckl Garcia

522
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 2: hit run RBI under.

523
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm the over as well on Bailey Ober the

524
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: five and a half, K's Radfield Dever's hitter fantasy score

525
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 1: seven and a half over and wonder Franco seven hitter

526
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 1: fantasy score over two. On the betting front today, continuing

527
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,440
Speaker 1: all with Bailely Ober again, that number five and a

528
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: half over on betting pros. It's a good number. The

529
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 1: juice is nice minus one O eight going over on

530
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 1: that Edward Cabrera, I know, is a little volatile, but

531
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 1: four and a half is a small number, so I

532
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 1: would put that in. You can put that into parlay

533
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:32,919
Speaker 1: because the juice is a little heavier at one fifty

534
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 1: four minus side Christian hoavier at six and a half

535
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,879
Speaker 1: K's you're getting one oh five on that one on

536
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: the minus side too, So that's pretty decent here against

537
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 1: the Milwaukee offense that really just has struggled this year.

538
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 1: And then the other one's Dane Donning. I want to

539
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: talk about Dane Dounny because the strike at number for

540
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 1: him is small too. The over you're getting plus money

541
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: four and a half at plus one twenty four. He

542
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,879
Speaker 1: could do this today. This is very well within his range. Welsh,

543
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,119
Speaker 1: what do you have on the betting world is on

544
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 1: this Monday afternoon evening.

545
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,879
Speaker 2: And that's funny afternoon evening.

546
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 1: Well, by the way, we've got games in the daytime. Yeah, sure,

547
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,160
Speaker 1: so if you career one fine.

548
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,880
Speaker 2: I saw at five and a half it was plus

549
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 2: one twenty five and I was tempted to take that

550
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 2: one because of the plus money, and I took Dane

551
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,880
Speaker 2: Dunning last week when it was three and a half.

552
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 2: So it's already bumped up a little bit. He's actually

553
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 2: a pretty good bet. He's really been hitting his zones.

554
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 2: I'm gonna speaking of Dane Dunning in Texas. I'm gonna

555
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 2: take Texas up by one run through the first five.

556
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,880
Speaker 2: That's almost even money. I also like the full game

557
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 2: money line. I just liked them. Their Luis Artis has

558
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 2: been so inconsistent, so that's why I like attack in

559
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 2: the first five where Dane Dunning has been pretty good.

560
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 2: Billy over strikeouts we talked about anywhere from like minus

561
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 2: one away to minus one twenty five and a little

562
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 2: hits parlay for you. Freddy Freeman and Otani both received

563
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 2: just one hit. It is minus one sixteen, so not

564
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 2: quite even money. But you just need one hit from

565
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,639
Speaker 2: Freeman and one from Otani. Pair those two together, boom.

566
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 2: Those are my plays.

567
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, Freddie Freeman back in Atlanta today, so that should

580
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: looks kind of like the betting today. It's not my

581
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: favorite slate, Like I don't like the way things have

582
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: kind of flushed themselves out. A lot of four outcome

583
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 1: games where the good pictures are kind of going against

584
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:43,919
Speaker 1: each other, and I tend to stay away from those

585
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: unless I really feel strongly about one side. Bailly Ober again,

586
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 1: it's just Bailly Ober day today, So if he busts out,

587
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a terrible day. We're all gonna be

588
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: miserable tomorrow. It's gonna be worse than the wolf spider

589
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: underneath our chair. If that happens, there you go ten

590
