Speaker 1: thousand dollars in bonus bets. Sounds good to me. Yesterday
Speaker 1: some betting controversy. We're gonna get to that in the
Speaker 1: Dodger game in my favorite bet of the day. I
Speaker 1: know some people don't understand what's going on. Uncle Joe
Speaker 1: will explain it to you. Don't worry. We had some
Speaker 1: history made. We've got more injuries to talk about, possibly
Speaker 1: some rebirths of some superstar players going on, and of
Speaker 1: course more overreactions, but also injury updates. Welsh. It's a
Speaker 1: jam packed show today for a Tuesday. Let me tell you,
Speaker 1: I'm excited about it. And yesterday we saw a little
Speaker 1: bit of history. A guy who is thirty years old,
Speaker 1: who's bounced around for a very long time, Ronel Blanco
Speaker 1: throws the first no hitter of twenty twenty four. I'm
Speaker 1: sure there'll be another one. At some point, what a
Speaker 1: story this kid is came over I think at twenty
Speaker 1: two years old. They said, tried out for the Mets,
Speaker 1: the Yankees, like half a dozen teams. At one point
Speaker 1: he was washing cars. He had a baby born earlier
Speaker 1: in the day. He goes out there and a beautiful
Speaker 1: game against a really good Toronto No, this wasn't the
Speaker 1: this was the Toronto Blue Jays. Welsh, what did you
Speaker 1: think of the Ronel Blanco performance, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: was rostered. I looked this up this morning. In seventeen
Speaker 1: percent of leagues. That's higher than I thought it would.
Speaker 2: Probably started in one percent of leagues.
Speaker 1: No, No, that was started started in seventeen He was
Speaker 1: started in seventeen percent of leagues. Maybe because he was
Speaker 1: a two star pitcher this week, maybe exactly what I think?
Speaker 1: That's all. Could it's all could possibly be people like saying, oh,
Speaker 1: two star pitcher astros, they haven't won, Well, let's let's
Speaker 1: give it a shot. Yeah, and I'll tell you what
Speaker 1: it paid off yesterday.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it did. And you know an interesting story
Speaker 2: two things about the renewl bl Blanco no hitter. It's
Speaker 2: the earliest no hitter in the history of baseball. I
Speaker 2: think April fourth was the previous, so April first, no
Speaker 2: fools was the earliest. And what an international signing class.
Speaker 2: Renel Blanco was signed for five thousand dollars five thousand
Speaker 2: dollars signing Bonus along with Christian Javier and Framber Valdez,
Speaker 2: who were both ten thousand, so twenty five thousand dollars
Speaker 2: in signing Bonus got those three pitchers. Now we're making
Speaker 2: a big deal. No one cared. I say gently about
Speaker 2: Renel Blanco before this, but he was awesome in this
Speaker 2: outing thirty four percent with rate. He had a forty
Speaker 2: two percent with rate on his changeup. He induced twenty
Speaker 2: overall whiffs, thirty two percent CSW slider change up got
Speaker 2: it all done. I kept throwing. I kept seeing him
Speaker 2: throw that slider all night long, getting you know, negative contact,
Speaker 2: getting some strikeouts. It was a pretty great performance. I
Speaker 2: think it was eight ks. He had only two walks
Speaker 2: to George Springer. It was efficient. He was saved by
Speaker 2: the defense a little bit. I love obscure no hitters.
Speaker 2: It might be my favorite thing that just exists about
Speaker 2: baseball is a guy. He might become amazing by the way.
Speaker 2: I believe he's like a thirty year old like Rookie River.
Speaker 2: He might be, he might become amazing, but possible, but
Speaker 2: it's not Baseball can create a hero on one night.
Speaker 2: For the rest of their lives. This guy will be.
Speaker 1: Able to outside and remember the Mother's day no hitter
Speaker 1: and his mom died and he was like his mom
Speaker 1: raised him and everyone's crying at the end of it.
Speaker 2: And luckily yeah, no percent. I mean, he has like
Speaker 2: a piece of history in baseball for the rest of
Speaker 2: his life, which I think is awesome. That's why baseball
Speaker 2: can be romantic. It was a great outing. But what
Speaker 2: are we gonna do. We're gonna be how much do
Speaker 2: we chase right now? Blanco rest of season? I don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think he's gonna still be stream league.
Speaker 1: I think you can look at it. Look people who
Speaker 1: streamed him yesterday got paid off. Let's see how the
Speaker 1: second start is later in the week and see what
Speaker 1: happens on Sunday, and then we can make a judgment
Speaker 1: about it, and maybe a more informed judgment.
Speaker 2: About So are you gonna having are you That's kind
Speaker 2: of thing, like are you gonna view him as like
Speaker 2: you have to start him moving forward?
Speaker 1: Are you don't even think he would make the Waiver
Speaker 1: Wire video this week? For me welsh to be honestly,
Speaker 1: like I got, I'm like kind of looking at it,
Speaker 1: and some of the names are still out there, Like
Speaker 1: I'm not I wouldn't add him over Hicks. I wouldn't
Speaker 1: add him over trying to think of some.
Speaker 2: Other Crochet and Jared Jones.
Speaker 1: Crochet, I would add over him. Jack's ginkle, Uh you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Like I'm just saying, like some
Speaker 1: of those guys are still out there. A lot of
Speaker 1: closers out there right now. He's in that periphery. But
Speaker 1: if you asked me the name my top five, I
Speaker 1: think he would be. And plus we'll get to the
Speaker 1: Josh Young injury too, because Josh Young, Royce Lewis, there's
Speaker 1: a lot of third basement people are gonna need too.
Speaker 1: So somebody's got to be on there. I don't care
Speaker 1: if it's a JD. Davis or a Camerera. Somebody's got
Speaker 1: to be on there. So it's a great moment. By
Speaker 1: the way, Also the earliest no hitter in MLB history,
Speaker 1: So but who was the previous record holder?
Speaker 2: Man? I read it, don't say it.
Speaker 1: Don't say it. If you know it, Peanuts, cracker jacks,
Speaker 1: drop it in the chat. I want to hear from
Speaker 1: all of you. I want to hear if you know
Speaker 1: who the earliest MLB previous no hitter ever was, if
Speaker 1: you know the answer dropping in and I'll give you no,
Speaker 1: it wasn't Bob Feller. There you go, Trent Fleming bringing
Speaker 1: out there. So there you go. And as Wonkey says,
Speaker 1: God hates third base, it's been decided. So there you
Speaker 1: have it, everybody, Let's continue on with the headlines. Show it.
Speaker 1: The Imanaga fired six scoreless innings. I love this guy,
Speaker 1: nine strikeouts. He was my other big bet of the
Speaker 1: day yesterday. We could have pushed this one up maybe
Speaker 1: to you know, the nine range or eight. I said
Speaker 1: it on the show yesterday.
Speaker 2: I said, I said you could go seven at plus
Speaker 2: one seventy eight. Dude, I haven't decided if Imanaga is
Speaker 2: the best pitcher in baseball or the Rockies are the
Speaker 2: worst team that have ever played baseball. It's somewhere in
Speaker 2: the middlega is going to rocket uprings. He looks so
Speaker 2: freaking good, but the Rockies are also so bad. There
Speaker 2: he had a no hitter through five. I thought we
Speaker 2: were gonna get at Imanaga no hitter.
Speaker 1: He's got this thing, you know, he's got that confidence
Speaker 1: on the mall, which I just love, even the preference.
Speaker 1: You know, they were showing clips on MB network this
Speaker 1: morning of that press conference when he was speaking in
Speaker 1: English and he was trying to connect with the cubsfan.
Speaker 1: He's got a swagger. I love this guy like I
Speaker 1: think this is going to be a huge signing for Chicago.
Speaker 1: Here's the reason why I like the Cubs so much
Speaker 1: to win this division at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: because I think it's gonna be very close. I think
Speaker 1: when you have a guy like that, who's gonna say,
Speaker 1: give me the ball, I wanted the big spot. That
Speaker 1: is huge. By the way, Blake, you got it right.
Speaker 1: Hideo Nomo was the correct answer Deyoomo back in one,
Speaker 1: I believe for the Red Sox on back in the day.
Speaker 2: On Shoto him A Naga, he had a thirty three
Speaker 2: percent CSW with fourteen whiffs on the fastball and twelve
Speaker 2: whiffs on the splitter. That splitter had a fifty percent
Speaker 2: whiff rate, which is absolutely absurd. And here's an important thing.
Speaker 2: He was able to stay inside the zone when it
Speaker 2: counted an almost seventy percent zone rate on the fastball.
Speaker 2: Curveball had a fifty percent zone rate. That's gonna make
Speaker 2: the other stuff devastating. Where guys are actually scared that
Speaker 2: these pitchers are gonna been from strikes. So if you
Speaker 2: get a sixty almost seventy percent fastball hitting the zone
Speaker 2: and then you throw a slider that breaks out of
Speaker 2: this I'm sorry, a splitter that breaks out of the zone,
Speaker 2: guys don't know what the hell to do with it.
Speaker 2: He is devastating, you know what. Hat tip to our
Speaker 2: boy Justin Steele. He called it. He is him anaga.
Speaker 2: He is gonna move up massive amounts of rest of
Speaker 2: season ranks. I love him, and I don't think we
Speaker 2: are gonna see friendly k props moving forward with show now, this.
Speaker 1: Is why I jumped on from the get go. It
Speaker 1: was the perfect store. But it was the Rockies, a
Speaker 1: team that strikes had a ton. It was the debut.
Speaker 1: He's a swagger kind of pitcher who wants to go
Speaker 1: out there. And the spotlights he showed you in the WBC,
Speaker 1: even the Japanese League. Spotlight's not too big for him.
Speaker 1: Managa like it's just not so great outing by him.
Speaker 1: Also talk about hot starts. Mike Trout two solo homers yesterday,
Speaker 1: again solo homers because he plays for the Angels and
Speaker 1: nobody likes to get on base for Mike Trout. But
Speaker 1: still it's a really good start to the season for
Speaker 1: Mike Trout if he keeps this up. Welsh, I do
Speaker 1: believe that the Angels are gonna shop because I don't
Speaker 1: think if you're the Angels, you can realistically look at
Speaker 1: this situation you're in. You blue it once with Otana,
Speaker 1: you can't blow it again with Trout. I'm not saying
Speaker 1: they're free agent anytime soon, but you're not winning this year.
Speaker 1: You're not winning next year. If you're the Angels, If
Speaker 1: you can get a boat load for Mike Trout in
Speaker 1: prospects and remake your organization, do it because you already
Speaker 1: screwed up last year. You can't continue to do this
Speaker 1: and lose another ten years of this organization to again.
Speaker 1: It's like giant contracts for two guys and at the
Speaker 1: end of the day, like things don't work out. They
Speaker 1: had so much bad money. I mean, they have bad
Speaker 1: money going back to Albert Pooles, to Vernon Wells, to
Speaker 1: Josh Hamilton. Like they've had so many bad contracts over
Speaker 1: the years that they've given out to me. I understand
Speaker 1: why they get Trout the money. Of course, the best
Speaker 1: player in baseball, But now we's in his thirties. If
Speaker 1: he stays hot through April and May into June and
Speaker 1: stays healthy, I think Trout could be on the move
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, which I know sounds a little crazy,
Speaker 1: but I don't think it is.
Speaker 2: I just don't know who's gonna take on the money
Speaker 2: and what are they going to give it that's gonna
Speaker 2: make sense. I mean, what the what the Angels will
Speaker 2: lose in just team revenue for jerseys and people coming
Speaker 2: to see Mike Trout one of the best players when
Speaker 2: he's on the field, and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: I just I've got a name for you. Okay, They've
Speaker 1: been trying to spend money, but nobody lets them because
Speaker 1: nobody wants to sign with them San Francisco Giants.
Speaker 2: But what are they gonna trade? What are they gonna
Speaker 2: Marco Luciana to be.
Speaker 1: A Luis Matos, Marciano, Kyle Harrison. They're gonna open it up.
Speaker 2: No way, no way they trade cayleson see. I think
Speaker 2: that that is the ultimate problem. This is gonna be
Speaker 2: a we have Mike Trout, this is what we want,
Speaker 2: and everyone every other team's gonna be like lol, lool
Speaker 2: because it's so much money. I just I think a
Speaker 2: logic is there. I think the Angels have kind of
Speaker 2: I think they missed their opportunity. I think they're gonna
Speaker 2: see it best serve to keep him on the field,
Speaker 2: doing what he does and trying to fool themselves and
Speaker 2: the fans into this being a contendious team. Then it's
Speaker 2: gonna be selling him for you know, a middle in
Speaker 2: Major league, you know prospect the type of guy, and
Speaker 2: then a low end prospect. I mean they don't know
Speaker 2: how to develop either. That's the other problem. Why would
Speaker 2: they want prospects when they can't develop any. They're moving
Speaker 2: an eighteen year old Nelson Roda not saying he's not
Speaker 2: worthwhile to double a because there's no development at the
Speaker 2: lower levels.
Speaker 1: I got another one for you new ownership group, a
Speaker 1: win now situation. Prospects to burn. What about the Orioles.
Speaker 2: I think he would be a great team leader for
Speaker 2: that team. I actually think that's actually kind of an
Speaker 2: interesting one. It's just like, but I gotta see the team.
Speaker 2: I don't think what matches is the money he's owed
Speaker 2: to the prospects the Angels would want, and I think
Speaker 2: that's the the cog that's broken.
Speaker 1: But I think they have, like I said, probably they do.
Speaker 1: They do the days to burn, and they've already got
Speaker 1: like you've already got Rutchman established, you'vedly got Gunner Henderson stablished,
Speaker 1: Jackson Holliday. Okay, so then you look to the rest
Speaker 1: of the pile, and it is an impressive pile. Let's
Speaker 1: be honest and look, you take what you can, but
Speaker 1: you're also then freeing up money if you're the Angels,
Speaker 1: even if you get just good prospects back that end
Speaker 1: up being major league ready talent, you're also freeing up
Speaker 1: money where you can start reinvesting in other players to
Speaker 1: start to reshape this organization because there's just not enough
Speaker 1: there to be competitive. It's a bigger conversation. I know
Speaker 1: we've taken up a lot. It might be the.
Speaker 2: Worst team in baseball if they trade Mike Trout, Like
Speaker 2: Mike Trout's gonna have thirty five Homers.
Speaker 1: And sixty them about the sixty eight.
Speaker 2: RBI when it's all pretty bad.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna be hockeyes might say, hold my beer.
Speaker 1: Bryce Harper oh for five against the Reds, He's oh
Speaker 1: for eleven. Don't worry, boys and girls, Bryce Harper will
Speaker 1: be fine. The Rangers unfortunately lost their third baseman, Josh Young,
Speaker 1: a fractured wrist. So that's gonna be a couple weeks. Now.
Speaker 1: This is really tough, especially in those people who love
Speaker 1: to abuse themselves in only leagues, not only fans, only
Speaker 1: leagues AL and NL. Right now, in Ale only, you
Speaker 1: lost Bryce Lewis and Josh Young within a few days
Speaker 1: of each other. A third base is Barren. I mean,
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Durant's gonna get more playing time in the short term.
Speaker 1: He's guess the guy you go to? JD. Davis again,
Speaker 1: another name, Like I'm just trying to think of some
Speaker 1: of the third base names that are out there. It's
Speaker 1: kind of slim pickens a little bit. But go ahead,
Speaker 1: Well you've got solutions.
Speaker 2: Well they're they're calling up Justin Foscue. So Justin Foscue
Speaker 2: got officially called up this morning, and that's going to
Speaker 2: be somebody that I think they'll probably called off to. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean they're calling him up, not just for depth.
Speaker 2: I think Ezekiel Duran is better for the kind of
Speaker 2: super util role. But I think they're probably gonna mix
Speaker 2: it between. I mean, Foscue was potentially up for this
Speaker 2: when Josh Young was hurt. He was up with the
Speaker 2: major league camp. I think Foscu is here to play,
Speaker 2: and foscue' is someone you probably want to pay attention to.
Speaker 2: Eighteen homers, fourteen stolen bases last year, two sixty average.
Speaker 2: He's had a couple games at Triple A so far,
Speaker 2: nothing special, but there is some power in that bat
Speaker 2: and he'll probably move down. Which here's the interesting thing
Speaker 2: is what this will do to Evan Carter. Evan Carter's
Speaker 2: been hitting eight against lefties and three against righty's. I
Speaker 2: wonder if even lefties this will move Carter up the
Speaker 2: lineup a little bit. But Foscu is probably the balance
Speaker 2: of picking up if you're in one of those only leagues.
Speaker 2: But to your point, if you lost him in a
Speaker 2: mixed league, third base is not the spot that you
Speaker 2: wanted to have to repair. And it's like, literally you
Speaker 2: said a good name. JD. Davis might be someone that
Speaker 2: you have to end up going to and that kind
Speaker 2: of stinks.
Speaker 1: And he's not special. If you're a fan of the show,
Speaker 1: you know this. Over the years, I've said it many times.
Speaker 1: He's not special, but he might be what you need
Speaker 1: is a stop gap guy. It's rough out there, you know,
Speaker 1: the Welsh. The more I think about Mike Trout and Baltimore,
Speaker 1: the more I like this because you also, you don't
Speaker 1: have to spend a lot of money on these young
Speaker 1: players right now, like you can wait on long term
Speaker 1: contracts for some of these young players like you have
Speaker 1: this window. It's kind of the same thing that happens
Speaker 1: in the NFL. When you have the good young quarterback,
Speaker 1: you can afford to spend on other pieces, right But
Speaker 1: when't you pay the big quarterback the big money all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, all the Niners, even the Chiefs before
Speaker 1: Mahomes got paid, the Baltimore Ravens before they paid lamor
Speaker 1: all those teams. You're able to do a lot more,
Speaker 1: a lot more flexibility, really would be interesting. Would not
Speaker 1: shock me pretty close to old home too. I mean,
Speaker 1: he's a guy that from that South Jersey area, it's
Speaker 1: pretty closer to the Baltimore kind of situation to the
Speaker 1: lower West coast into the East coast. YEP, it could
Speaker 1: be interesting, all right. So one more thing here, and
Speaker 1: I want to talk about this because I know a
Speaker 1: lot of people are messaging me. This is what the
Speaker 1: hell's going on. So Austin Riley, three run Homer yesterday, Atlanta,
Speaker 1: I don't everybody move to the alternate run line. I
Speaker 1: could have put this bad boy wherever I wanted it,
Speaker 1: because they won nine to nothing. But the problem is
Speaker 1: they won in eight innings because the game got called
Speaker 1: and everyone who wagered in that game got things voided
Speaker 1: or refunded. However you want to think about it, and
Speaker 1: that's fine. Now. It did cost me a fair amount
Speaker 1: of money yesterday because I did have it in a parlay,
Speaker 1: as we talked about, and like plus six hundred yesterday
Speaker 1: or seven hundred, and it would have been a really
Speaker 1: nice return. Here's what happens, because people do bet both
Speaker 1: sides of things, believe it or not, even though clearly
Speaker 1: the Atlantic side was the right side to be on,
Speaker 1: and clearly it was an official game. The theory is,
Speaker 1: had they had one more chance, you know, they could
Speaker 1: have come back and maybe scored ten runs. The next
Speaker 1: thing you know, the game flips. Because it is baseball
Speaker 1: and anything can happen in sports. So that's why everything
Speaker 1: got voided yesterday. So if you had investments in that game,
Speaker 1: it does suck. It's just part of the bad beats
Speaker 1: of baseball. It happens once in a blue moon, not
Speaker 1: that often. But that's the reason why it got voided.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter how many innings they play, doesn't matter
Speaker 1: how big of a blow it is. When it's not
Speaker 1: it's an official game, but not a full game, that's
Speaker 1: what happens.
Speaker 2: I don't think every book does that, though, just to
Speaker 2: point out I don't think it's not.
Speaker 1: A lot of them did. I don't want to mention
Speaker 1: the books that did, but most of them did yesterday
Speaker 1: because I've got a fair amount of conversation about that.
Speaker 1: And yes, we got screwed. Look there's another Joe who
Speaker 1: got screwed yesterday. Look, don't worry, I got my best
Speaker 1: bet video up there on betting Pros already for the day. Today.
Speaker 1: We'll get back at it. We had the Dodgers, right,
Speaker 1: we had a Monaga right, we had a lot right, yesterday.
Speaker 1: Let's just be honest, and we're gonna get more right
Speaker 1: today and every day here most of it. And when
Speaker 1: we were wrong, we will hold ourselves accountable as always,
Speaker 1: so we are good about that. But it was a
Speaker 1: frustrating day because we were so right about Atlanta, Like
Speaker 1: it was just so easy. Pick on the White Sox,
Speaker 1: pick on the A's, pick on the Colorado Rockies. Just
Speaker 1: do this and you're gonna make money in baseball and
Speaker 1: you're gonna love life. You're also gonna love life if
Speaker 1: you subscribe to Fantasy pros MLB, because when you do,
Speaker 1: we're getting away free stuff like this Welsh Trophies Mac
Speaker 1: Championship trophy. Subscribe to the channel, drop a comment below
Speaker 1: that's it. Don't forget to ring the bell for notifications
Speaker 1: to Welsh's got his trade videos. I have my Waiver
Speaker 1: Wire videos leading off live every single day. But look
Speaker 1: at that magnificent trophy. It can be yours, Welsh. Also
Speaker 1: some fun, let's have some fun here. Blake Snell will
Speaker 1: make his debut with the Giants next Monday, so we'll
Speaker 1: see how that goes. Jordan Montgomery we'll start on Sunday
Speaker 1: for Triple A, so that's a good thing here, Arizona
Speaker 1: working him back the A's yesterday, which was a very
Speaker 1: big surprise option a story wherewives to Triple A Vegas welsh,
Speaker 1: what the hell happened here?
Speaker 2: Well, they said, you can't hit. He literally had no offense.
Speaker 2: They actually Mark Cootsee said the only reason he made
Speaker 2: the opening day roster was because Miguel Anduar suffered an injury,
Speaker 2: and that he's gonna go down to Triple A. He's
Speaker 2: gonna lead off and he's gonna learn to get on base.
Speaker 2: And that's it. There's nothing else to it. Like all
Speaker 2: of the worries that were thrown out to us were legitimate,
Speaker 2: and now you're gonna have to eat it, I will say.
Speaker 2: They said they're hopeful that this isn't going to be
Speaker 2: too crazy long, so just pay atension of how he
Speaker 2: is in tripa A. I'm still holding for a tiny bit,
Speaker 2: not that he's good, but because you probably drafted him in.
Speaker 2: I am trying to reach for steals a little bit
Speaker 2: more so. I wouldn't do anything too drastic yet, but
Speaker 2: this is an absolute panic situation with Estuary Ruiz zero sheriff,
Speaker 2: we wash won. I have won where I got him
Speaker 2: like post two hundred.
Speaker 1: In fact, I want to say he is on my
Speaker 1: Biggest Busts of twenty twenty four video that I did
Speaker 1: here on the channel. I want to want to say it.
Speaker 1: I will say it. He was. I know he was
Speaker 1: because when you steal seventy bases and you score, you know,
Speaker 1: fifty runs, that's a problem. I'm exaggerating only slightly, but
Speaker 1: like that's basically what was going on here. That is
Speaker 1: a big problem. So you know, here we go, here
Speaker 1: we go. Fun question here from the Peanuts Joey, what's
Speaker 1: your best baseball snack? Peanuts? Hot dog, corn dog, cotton candy. Oh,
Speaker 1: I do like a lot of these things. I am
Speaker 1: always a hot dog. I don't. Actually, cotton candy is
Speaker 1: one thing I don't.
Speaker 2: It's gross.
Speaker 1: My kids like the cotton candy, but it's more novelty.
Speaker 1: But you had me up in there. I'm always a
Speaker 1: hot dog at the ball game guy. I am always
Speaker 1: a helmet Sunday guy because it is a fact that
Speaker 1: ice cream tastes better in a helmet. I will always
Speaker 1: do the nachos. It depends on the place, you.
Speaker 2: Know, helmet nacho guy. I'm a pretty big helmet not guy.
Speaker 1: You know each It's funny City Field has the best
Speaker 1: food because they have the worst baseball. So you gotta
Speaker 1: have something there for the Mets fans to really enjoy themselves. Like, look,
Speaker 1: if you're not gonna be fulfilled, you know with the
Speaker 1: Mets team, at least you can be fulfilled with the snacks.
Speaker 1: But every ballpark, you know, like they do that garlic
Speaker 1: fries out in sand France, Like every ballpark, the regionalism's things,
Speaker 1: there's you should always try those things. But I'm always
Speaker 1: a hot dog guy, and I'm always a helmet Sunday guy,
Speaker 1: and I'm always the pretzel guy. I'm always a big
Speaker 1: pretzel guy. What about you wash what's your go to snaw?
Speaker 2: I think it's nachos, nachos even like the cheat, Like
Speaker 2: I'll talk myself, I'm like, I don't want the nachos,
Speaker 2: and then it's like, you know what, I'll just go
Speaker 2: with a platter of cheese and plain chips that probably
Speaker 2: cost him thirty five cents to total put together, or
Speaker 2: you get the gourmet notch. I did it with the
Speaker 2: Diamondbacks last year. It's like twenty seven dollars completely not
Speaker 2: worth it. But you know what, I had a great
Speaker 2: time eating these gourmet nachos out of a helmet, and
Speaker 2: I dealt with it.
Speaker 1: Here you go. Here's the answer from one of the
Speaker 1: Peanuts beers. It is Carlson likes eat. Carlson likes beers.
Speaker 1: What's your favorite snack? Beers? Beers can only get two
Speaker 1: at a time.
Speaker 2: I think five beers.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you put it in a helmet, I get some
Speaker 1: more beers. I don't think Carlson talks. I love it, Carlson.
Speaker 1: I'm just having fun. I actually am not a big
Speaker 1: beer at the ballgame, person. I like the souvenir cups.
Speaker 1: I'm more of like a soda souvenor not because I
Speaker 1: don't like to drink. That's clearly you've spent enough time
Speaker 1: with me. That's not the case. But at the ball game,
Speaker 1: which is never a big beer at the ballgame, guy,
Speaker 1: I'm just not.
Speaker 2: But I'll I'm a tall boy at the tall.
Speaker 1: Boy your a yard. I have the funniest collection of
Speaker 1: souvenir cups over the last like twenty years. We might
Speaker 1: have to do a segment once a week about the
Speaker 1: souvenir cups. And I mean, like some really funny, like
Speaker 1: that guy played there twelve?
Speaker 2: What are you doing? You're twelve souvenir.
Speaker 1: I like the Souvenir cups. Well Mark for the Souvenir cups.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about also Marks Moore. How about this one?
Speaker 1: The Dodgers are calling up Danelson, Lamett Welsh your thoughts.
Speaker 2: I actually saw Lamett throw just see like two weeks
Speaker 2: ago in the backfields. Literally no one was there. Lamette
Speaker 2: was just like walking across the grass throwing against the
Speaker 2: White Sox. I don't think much of it. I don't
Speaker 2: think Lamett is long for a major league roster, and
Speaker 2: I would probably bet against Lamette.
Speaker 1: There you go, betting against him. Sean Manya eight strikeouts,
Speaker 1: six shoutout innings. Connor Joe continues to be red hot
Speaker 1: to start the season. Are you buying any of these
Speaker 1: two early good aprils from either of these two players
Speaker 1: who were floating around most waiver wires. That's another guy,
Speaker 1: by the way, Connor Joe my qualified their base in
Speaker 1: your league two.
Speaker 2: I mean like buying, Like sure, I'm picking up. I'm
Speaker 2: comfortable streaming Mania in good spots. You know, if it
Speaker 2: was like a Braves matchup, I'm sitting him and Connor.
Speaker 2: Joe's interesting because he's leading off and it doesn't look
Speaker 2: like this team wants to make it any big adjustments
Speaker 2: anytime soon. O'Neil Cruz keeps hitting like six, so yeah,
Speaker 2: you want more at bats. Connor Joe's probably gonna score
Speaker 2: some runs. He's been decent deeper leagues. I'm interested in Connor.
Speaker 1: Joe's so funny. I see you Peanuts and Cracker Jacks
Speaker 1: tone in the jet. I'm with you, Joey Low collecting
Speaker 1: a superhero cups. I have a hologram Jim Tomy cup
Speaker 1: hitting a home run.
Speaker 2: I mean I shouldn't like, I shouldn't call you a child,
Speaker 2: by the way, as a person with like autographs everywhere
Speaker 2: and everything like that, but.
Speaker 1: Say, yeah, child, it's a guy where you know, you
Speaker 1: get twelve year old's room. Come on, by the way,
Speaker 1: here we go and this is whips. Joe runs the
Speaker 1: bases after they with the little leaguers one hundred percent,
Speaker 1: and you know what, I knock him down and I
Speaker 1: outrun him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because it's a competitions, like throw me a ball thrown.
Speaker 2: Joe's the guy with a glove at the ball game,
Speaker 2: running around, try to get the ball thrown all right.
Speaker 1: Another thing for fun. Jared Durant three hits, three steals,
Speaker 1: two runs against the A's So much fun. He has
Speaker 1: five steals in five games. Oh, I love Jaron Durant
Speaker 1: so much, so good, one of our favorite players. Rookie
Speaker 1: lookie time. Max Meyer charged with two five innings. Mike
Speaker 1: Trout was really his only problem yesterday. Slid slider look good.
Speaker 1: Would you think of the Max Meyer outing four strikeouts
Speaker 1: in this one? Five? He's gonna be a five inning pitcher.
Speaker 1: You just have to deal with that, everybody.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I said that yesterday. That was My
Speaker 2: concern with him is like, I just don't know how
Speaker 2: deep he can go into games. He's gonna have to
Speaker 2: be efficient to be a to be a guy that's
Speaker 2: going to qualify for wins. I don't think this team
Speaker 2: is any good. Marlin's clearly are just a garbage team
Speaker 2: right now, and they should be selling off. So I'm
Speaker 2: a little bit indifferent. Like, as good as Meyer looked,
Speaker 2: he can't go deep into games. He's not gonna get
Speaker 2: a ton of offensive support right now. So you know,
Speaker 2: probably a streamer, probably keep him to a streamer spot
Speaker 2: when he's playing teams like the Angels. But Slider looked good.
Speaker 2: He looked pretty good. Great buy in Dynasty right now
Speaker 2: for next year.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well this was the time to buy him right now.
Speaker 1: Actually into this year's draft. Jason Lloyd does Waldo Cabrera,
Speaker 1: hot start, plays, four positions were the pickup. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean flexibility right now. I think he is a good
Speaker 1: player potentially. I don't think he is a game changing player.
Speaker 1: But when good players are good streaks, Let's say he
Speaker 1: has a really good month of April, that's helpful. If
Speaker 1: you have Josh Jung, if you have Royce Lewis, like,
Speaker 1: that's enough to get by, and you got to patch
Speaker 1: it together and figure things out till you get to
Speaker 1: Memorial Day or whenever these guys come up. Also, Louis
Speaker 1: Heel one run, one hit, over four and two thirds.
Speaker 1: Again a limited start against the d Backs. So what
Speaker 1: do you think of Heel's start for the Yankees.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he looked good. There's some command issues that he's
Speaker 2: gonna have to deal with, but fastball was absolutely pumping.
Speaker 2: He looked he kind of looked exactly how you expect
Speaker 2: the like big flame throwing Yankee pitchers to look, but
Speaker 2: I think he's gonna be able to manage some of
Speaker 2: the command issues. Diamond. It's interesting because the Diambacks are
Speaker 2: one of the lowest strikeout teams out there as well,
Speaker 2: so this is gonna be one of the more patient teams,
Speaker 2: one of the better offenses early on. So you actually
Speaker 2: might see a lot more upside coming from him. So
Speaker 2: if that command starts to tick up just a tiny bit,
Speaker 2: Louis Gail is going to be somebody that I don't know,
Speaker 2: he could maybe move beyond like streaming, Like I would
Speaker 2: probably rather Louise Giel than Max Meyer right now.
Speaker 1: I don't know about and would you I'd rather have Meyer?
Speaker 1: But what about Blanco? Right he is? What this is
Speaker 1: the conversation like, yeah, heil Meyer, Brady Singer. I know
Speaker 1: someone was talking about the chat about him like Blanco's
Speaker 1: thing was fun. But I again, am I chasing it?
Speaker 1: I'm not and maybe I'm wrong. We'll see Jackson Merrill
Speaker 1: first big league homer, that's one of Welsh's boys, and
Speaker 1: Tyler Freeman first homer as well. On Monday, in a
Speaker 1: loss to the MS a little three up and three down,
Speaker 1: Anthony Volpi four for four talked a lot in this
Speaker 1: offseason on this channel about Anthony Volpey. We talked about
Speaker 1: a twenty twenty guy, YEP sleepers video, all these things.
Speaker 1: He has gotten off to a red hot start. This
Speaker 1: is huge for the Yankees offense if he can. I
Speaker 1: told you he is a better player than you saw
Speaker 1: last year. It was a rough first year, but a
Speaker 1: rough first year when you're twenty twenty and you're like
Speaker 1: twenty two years old, that's pretty okay. Volpi was gonna
Speaker 1: figure it out. And it looks like he's figuring it out.
Speaker 1: So that is fantastic. Ten or how ten K's again
Speaker 1: against the A's but still pretty much Now any pitcher
Speaker 1: I see, I'm looking for the strikeout prop. I was
Speaker 1: curious about Helck yesterday and I was like, no, Joe,
Speaker 1: don't get crazy, don't be stupid, just control yourself, don't
Speaker 1: get out of control. And now after that, I think
Speaker 1: I might get out of control when it comes to
Speaker 1: the A's Welsh, I think I.
Speaker 2: Just I'm trying to control myself. I actually have a
Speaker 2: prop with Brian Beao today when we get to the
Speaker 2: bet segment. But it is tough because there's a part
Speaker 2: of you that wants to say I'm taking the over
Speaker 2: every single time. It's not always going to pay off.
Speaker 2: But here's one clear thing that's going on with the A's.
Speaker 2: They cannot hit breaking pitches. There were nine swinging whiffs
Speaker 2: on how slider. So if anybody has got like a
Speaker 2: good slider, good splitter, good breaking type of pitch, you're
Speaker 2: probably gonna induce a decent amount of k's on that thing.
Speaker 2: If you got a fastball that works. And that's what
Speaker 2: Bao does. So Bo I think is gonna be able
Speaker 2: to change up everything. It's gonna be able to rock
Speaker 2: some strikeouts. Even though I feel like a like when
Speaker 2: I look at the A's and Rockies right now, I
Speaker 2: feel like every day they're a mark. But I'm a
Speaker 2: little like, oh, I'm gonna get got Like I don't
Speaker 2: want to bet them every single day because it's not
Speaker 2: gonna work it well point, but it is working every
Speaker 2: single night.
Speaker 1: It's gonna work one hundred out of one hundred and
Speaker 1: sixty two games. It's gonna be good like it probably
Speaker 1: more than that, probably one hundred and ten ish one
Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen times. Like that's a good ratio.
Speaker 2: Remember when I said to take it the under on
Speaker 2: wins on betting pros for the A's and the Rockies,
Speaker 2: and it was like, I don't know, you don't want
Speaker 2: to pick on the worst teams? Oh my god.
Speaker 1: I mean, well, but the question was they won fifty
Speaker 1: games last year, right, or fifty one games?
Speaker 2: They won fifty games last year and the line was
Speaker 2: fifty seven, Like, so.
Speaker 1: How do they get seven games better on that roster? Like,
Speaker 1: I don't see it. I don't see how that happened
Speaker 1: at all. That's the problem. So get ready to Las Vegas.
Speaker 1: Viva Las A's Kyle Tucker two for three, a pair
Speaker 1: of two run dingers too, So the last one big
Speaker 1: win there again, that was kind of lost to the shuffle,
Speaker 1: to the Blanco stuff. Three down, Ryan Peppio was Pepino
Speaker 1: six runs, five and two thirds yesterday lost to the Rangers.
Speaker 1: Joe Boyle not good two and two thirds, eight hits,
Speaker 1: seven earned, four walks, four k's and Tristan mckenzon mackenzie
Speaker 1: excuse me, three and a third gave up five runs
Speaker 1: four earned in that one. So McKenzie the guy was
Speaker 1: away from you know, he was intriguing to me a
Speaker 1: few years ago when nobody was on him, and then
Speaker 1: to me, it was like you got the best out
Speaker 1: of him. The frame was very terrifying. I sold him
Speaker 1: in my keeper league right after around that season, Like
Speaker 1: in that season when he was being so good because
Speaker 1: he was cost me nothing, I was, I can'tm gonna
Speaker 1: flip this guy because I'm concerned. Is Mackenzie a guy
Speaker 1: you think you're ever gonna be able to depend on?
Speaker 1: Because it just doesn't feel like that to me.
Speaker 2: No. I mean it's specifically because you said depend on
Speaker 2: will you have good start?
Speaker 1: Sure?
Speaker 2: Will he have good strikeout numbers?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Sure, But no, I don't I think he's always gonna
Speaker 2: live in that like streamery type of spot. And that's
Speaker 2: and I'm I'm blanket calling a lot of guys like this.
Speaker 2: But if I look at a guy that I don't
Speaker 2: feel comfortable starting ninety percent of the time, regardless of
Speaker 2: the matchup, they do fall into streamer spots. If you're
Speaker 2: in ten and twelve man leagues like Mackenzie, I don't
Speaker 2: think is much more than a matchup based pitcher. And
Speaker 2: there's really been nothing that's told us much differently.
Speaker 1: Injuries always around for major League baseball, justin Verlander h
Speaker 1: throwing fifty two pitch bullpen session yesterday, so going in
Speaker 1: the right direction. Jordan Romano scheduled to throw a bullpen today.
Speaker 1: The Mets put Tylor McGill on the fifteen day IL
Speaker 1: and apparently they're talking to Julio Teheran. So again, City Field,
Speaker 1: you better get those nachos really tight. I've heard this
Speaker 1: year they've got the Italian tri color cookies deep fried
Speaker 1: in egg roll rappers, like almost like yeah, I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: but I want to try it. But it's still not
Speaker 1: enough to get me to the stadium. That's that's the problem.
Speaker 2: You don't want to pay fourteen dollars for an egg
Speaker 2: rolled cookie. That's actually why I have to pay fast.
Speaker 1: I would pay fourteen dollars to try that. I don't
Speaker 1: want to pay fifteen dollars to park there before I
Speaker 1: have to do it. That's where the that's the disconnect
Speaker 1: between the two things, the fourteen dollars for the novelty
Speaker 1: food item that I'll probably like that.
Speaker 2: I'm okay, you're gonna like an egg rolled cookie. Well,
Speaker 2: I don't understand what that is. I don't know, man, awful,
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm intrigued. I just want to try it. Then. Also,
Speaker 1: we've got the Diamondbacks putting Alec Thomas on the ten
Speaker 1: day injured list with a drain left hamstring. Any thoughts
Speaker 1: on that one, Welsh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, they brought up Jorge Barrosa, who immediately crushed a
Speaker 2: double last night. I actually think he will get some opportunities.
Speaker 2: It's probably gonna lead to a little bit more. Jake
Speaker 2: McCarthy super interesting. I still look at that they went
Speaker 2: and paid twelve and a half million dollars for Jock
Speaker 2: Peterson and they won't put him in the outfield. He's
Speaker 2: just going to be a dh I just don't understand it.
Speaker 2: I wish it would have gone after so lair, But
Speaker 2: you know, look for more opportunities to pop up. Maybe
Speaker 2: they do put Peterson in an outfield, maybe Blaze gets
Speaker 2: more of a shot. But I don't think there's anything
Speaker 2: I would really care about picking up Barrosa or McCarthy
Speaker 2: from anybody. Just a bummer for Alec.
Speaker 1: All right, now, yesterday we failed miserably, So should we
Speaker 1: say it together today or should.
Speaker 2: We How about the cadence here?
Speaker 1: I think that's the question.
Speaker 2: How about you do the front and the back and
Speaker 2: I do the middle. You go, It's time for the
Speaker 2: bets and I'll go of the and then you go.
Speaker 1: Day. Are we saying best bets or bets of the day?
Speaker 1: Best bets?
Speaker 2: Okay, so you say the best bets and then I'll
Speaker 2: do of the How about y'all do the back, You
Speaker 2: do the front? Perfect, we do it?
Speaker 1: Go all right, all right, it's that time. Everybody's time
Speaker 1: for the best bets of the day. With Joey p
Speaker 1: in the Welsh. That felt good. Let's go. I think
Speaker 1: we found it all right. You can follow us by

Speaker 1: on Fantasy Pros MLB, on the Instagram, on Betting Pros,
Speaker 1: on the Twitter and in the Instagram or the x
Speaker 1: whatever the hell we're calling you today for me bet
Speaker 1: of the day raise minus one and a half at
Speaker 1: plus one forty five against the Texas Rangers. Now Josh
Speaker 1: Young's out of that lineup. Efflyn has a nine era
Speaker 1: right now. But as we talked about last week, it
Speaker 1: was a good start for e Flin until the fifth
Speaker 1: inning and things unraveled, which is the bad first start.
Speaker 1: He is always good at home. This is a perfect
Speaker 1: opportunity here where you look at the lines and I
Speaker 1: just think the lines are wrong today on this one,
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna take advantage of it now. I'm be
Speaker 1: wrong at the end of the day, but with Eflin
Speaker 1: on the mound against Andrew Heeney, to me, this is
Speaker 1: a good opportunity plus money plus one forty five at
Speaker 1: minus one and a half, I love this one. You're
Speaker 1: also getting Shane Bieber over on the strikeouts today against
Speaker 1: the Mariners, who have struck out a tons so far
Speaker 1: this year. Six and a half k's that's the number
Speaker 1: going over that at minus one twenty, So the juices
Speaker 1: it's okay, But Bieber has been so good I will
Speaker 1: give him a shot to get the seven. Same thing
Speaker 1: with you. Darvish over six and a half today minus
Speaker 1: one twelve in his start as well. So I like
Speaker 1: the Rays, I like Shane Bieber, I like Darvish. If
Speaker 1: you could put the Rays and the red Sox together.
Speaker 1: By the way, Red Sox going against two Welsh, they
Speaker 1: so raise minus one and a half Red Sox minus
Speaker 1: one and a half. Put those bad boys together, you
Speaker 1: get plus three seventy seven. Go bet that at bet
Speaker 1: three six five, and again use that promo code leading off.
Speaker 1: When you do bet five bucks, get one hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty in the bonus bets. That's what you want here,
Speaker 1: but don't forget use that promo code leading off when
Speaker 1: you sign up at bet three six five Welsh. What
Speaker 1: do you like today in the betting world?
Speaker 2: All right? I would like to remind everybody to follow
Speaker 2: us on the Betting Pros app if you guys want
Speaker 2: to see, because I had a situation yesterday where I
Speaker 2: was two for one on the show and I added
Speaker 2: a bet later, and if you had followed me on
Speaker 2: Betting Pros, you could I did a ladder. I did
Speaker 2: a mini ladder, by the way, Matt Waldron, I laddered
Speaker 2: bet his k's and I hit both sides of my ladder.
Speaker 2: So for better for worse, by the way, because you
Speaker 2: could follow me and I have a bad day, I'm
Speaker 2: bracing for it because if you go on Betting Pros,
Speaker 2: I got the little fire next to my name because
Speaker 2: I got a three day hot streak going, so hopefully
Speaker 2: I can continue, but we all know how that goes.
Speaker 2: So leading to the bets, here's what I have got
Speaker 2: for you today, Rainaldo Lopez four and a half strikeouts
Speaker 2: minus one, twenty five over. Lopez is a high strikeout
Speaker 2: guy twenty nine point nine percent K percentage. Last year
Speaker 2: he was showing off those strikeouts in spring training stretch
Speaker 2: out as a starter for the Atlanta Braves. They're going
Speaker 2: up against a White Sox who our twenty second in
Speaker 2: k's per It's so interesting. I wrote a note. I
Speaker 2: was like, Chicago old team. I don't know what I
Speaker 2: wrote there. That's what confused me. But there, twenty second
Speaker 2: is strikeouts per game, which is about ten strikeouts per
Speaker 2: That's all that actually really matters about the Chicago White Sox.
Speaker 2: So I think this is a really low number. He
Speaker 2: can get a little bit walky, but Lopez has been
Speaker 2: an absolute fireball. His walk percentage up near twelve. So
Speaker 2: if that gets ahead of him, eh, but it doesn't.
Speaker 2: With the White Sox, they strike out a bunch. Four
Speaker 2: and a half is a super low number. Don't want
Speaker 2: to get too cheeky with going too high on this,
Speaker 2: but four and a half take that good juice. I
Speaker 2: mentioned Brian Beyo with the Red Sox strikeouts. I want
Speaker 2: to play, and I think you can because the Aas.
Speaker 1: Strikeout is this one. It was my fourth one. It
Speaker 1: didn't make the top three.
Speaker 2: It was right there and I'd be comfortable with it,
Speaker 2: but I went in different direction. I went walks one
Speaker 2: and a half under, and it's a plus money play
Speaker 2: at plus one twenty five over on bet three six five.
Speaker 2: Beyo last year a six percent walk rate, which is solid.
Speaker 2: No walks in his first start, and the A's have
Speaker 2: the seventh least walks in baseball right now per game,
Speaker 2: so I get the cushion of one walk. I just
Speaker 2: need not to I get plus money. It's a little
Speaker 2: bit riskier, but I'm playing it out for a full unit,
Speaker 2: and then finally I'm gonna play, actually a nerfee play
Speaker 2: with which is no run first inning. I'm going with
Speaker 2: the Mariners and Cleveland, who've got Luis Castillo and Shane Bieber.
Speaker 2: That is minus one thirty five. It's a little bit juice,
Speaker 2: but if I had to pick one, I really like it.
Speaker 2: I just need no runs to be scored between those
Speaker 2: two ace pitchers. Those are my three bets of the day.
Speaker 1: There you have it, everybody, don't forget Subscribe to Betting
Speaker 1: Pros and Fantasy Pros MLB to get all of your
Speaker 1: daily MLB information, news, notes, fantasy, and fun because that's
Speaker 1: what we do here on leading off. All right, Welsh,
Speaker 1: it's time again to go to the home run board.
Speaker 1: Let's see how the folks are doing after Monday. Look
Speaker 1: at that sclarkup or is it s Clark P? I
Speaker 1: like Sark Clark. It sounds like one of the aliens
Speaker 1: from like the Simpson I want to say, But up
Speaker 1: at the top of the leaderboard at four, a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of people at three. I still have yet to
Speaker 1: get on the board. But Welsh, I think it's time
Speaker 1: for Joey p to get somebody out of a slump's
Speaker 1: claiming a slump, and I think it's time to get
Speaker 1: Bryce Harper out of a slump. So me and Bryce
Speaker 1: hold the hands today, Babe. I check the weather too.
Speaker 1: It should be clearing up in Philadelphia by the time
Speaker 1: we get the game time. So give me Bryce Harper
Speaker 1: to go yard today and finally get me on the board.
Speaker 1: Welsh is on the board, Welsh, where are you going
Speaker 1: for your home run call for Tuesday?
Speaker 2: I want to get a few more. I feel you
Speaker 2: I got the very first day, I got my homer,
Speaker 2: and it's just been zero zero zero.
Speaker 1: Sia, you got one.
Speaker 2: Well, I got a guy that's also got a zero,
Speaker 2: and maybe it can change today. I'm going with seas Zuki,
Speaker 2: who put up big, big power numbers in spring. Everybody
Speaker 2: big breakout. He's had over sixty percent hard hit rate.
Speaker 2: We got wins that are pushing out now, they are
Speaker 2: pushing out right field a little bit eighteen million or so,
Speaker 2: big wins pushing out of the stadium. I am gonna
Speaker 2: go with seyas Zzuki for the home run called today.
Speaker 1: Question here from the Peanuts and Cracker Jacks, has Joey
Speaker 1: pigpe given up on the Mets yet? You're saying that
Speaker 1: I had hopes and expectations. That's what that question implies,
Speaker 1: of which I had none. We're in a rebuild. Just
Speaker 1: commit to the rebuild trade, Alonzo, give me something to
Speaker 1: look forward to. Ronnie. When Ronnie Mauricio got hurt, that
Speaker 1: was when I said, yep, see it in twenty twenty.
Speaker 2: Five, Ronnie Mauricio took you off the train.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because that was like one of those things like, Okay,
Speaker 1: we have at leap Alvarez, we have Mauricio, We've got Lindor,
Speaker 1: we got out Alonzo. We've got a lot of pieces
Speaker 1: here that we can kind of put together and say
Speaker 1: this is a team that's kind of going in the
Speaker 1: right direction. But then we didn't tend to the pitching staff,
Speaker 1: and we're not gettended to the pitching staff, and Marisio
Speaker 1: got hurt. I went my hands on fantasy and baseball. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he'll be gone by July, so that's fine too. If
Speaker 1: you want to get involved in our home run contest,

Speaker 1: it's JD. Davis. Look at this. How nice this is. Ah,
Speaker 1: I've got so many pitches to pull from from thin air.
Speaker 1: We should do that. We should teach you to do
