Mr boy Dame Martinez 0:07:23.360 --> 0:07:26.360 speeds this bitting statistician. We got a good show for you. 0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:28.720 As I said, we're gonna talk a little bit about 0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:31.200 the Hall of Fame announcements. If you miss us at 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:32.800 the top of the show, and some of you guys 0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:34.960 on the YouTube stream and you may miss the first 0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:38.040 couple of minutes of the show, but that's all right. 0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:40.600 We still welcome you into the Stats over Beat cipher 0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:42.760 as soon as you can. But we did tip our 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:46.080 cap to the newly minted Hall of famers Vladimir Guerrero, 0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.440 Trevor Hoffman, and then two guys who made it on 0:07:48.480 --> 0:07:51.240 their first year in the ballot, Tip of Jones and 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:54.640 Jim Tomay made it to the Hall of Fame. So 0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:57.680 here at the Fantasy Freestyle, we certainly congratulate them. But 0:07:57.800 --> 0:07:59.800 let's get it started here with our news and notes 0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:03.840 for around the NFL, and we start with Levian bell. 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:09.840 I mentioned to you guys throughout the week that you know, 0:08:09.880 --> 0:08:12.800 Peter King said look out for the Raiders potentially as 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:16.560 an option. I was pontificating before about places like Detroit 0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:18.520 that you need a kind of a stable quarterback situation 0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:21.520 because does levi On Bell really want to be there 0:08:21.640 --> 0:08:24.440 long term in Pittsburgh when it's likely that Big Ben 0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:27.960 Roethlisberger has got maybe one more year left. But he 0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:30.160 did say today that he and the Steelers are quote 0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:34.240 unquote a lot closer on contract negotiations than they were 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:36.959 last year. Listen, I think this is gonna set up 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:39.760 for the Pittsburgh Steelers to make one last run at 0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:41.680 it next year. I think Ben is gonna have his 0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:44.480 last year. That's part of the reason why that quarterback 0:08:44.520 --> 0:08:48.960 coach was elevated to offensive coordinator to keep stability in play. 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:50.960 I think it comes down to injuries, you know. I 0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:54.120 mean they lost Ryan Shazier as you saw, and that 0:08:54.240 --> 0:08:58.120 had an impact moving forward. They lost Antonio Brown in 0:08:58.160 --> 0:09:02.000 that big game. Remember, imagine this. Imagine what would be 0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:04.880 right now. I'm not saying it would be different necessarily, 0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:08.880 but imagine if division weekend because that game, the Pittsburgh 0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:11.800 New England game that happened where Antonio Brown went out 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:14.800 and Big Ben, you know, through the interception at the 0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:16.440 very end, and there was all that that was an 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:20.920 essence for home field advantage. Imagine if in divisional weekend 0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:23.520 it was the Jags traveling to New England and division 0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:26.959 weekend and it was the Tennessee Titans going to Pittsburgh. 0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:30.120 I wonder what the a f C Championship Game would 0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:32.320 have looked like. I wonder if the Super Bowl would 0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:34.360 have looked a little bit different. I also want to 0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:37.520 tell you remember, don't forget about a R fifteen Allen Robinson, 0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:40.680 Remember the cl first game of the season, but he 0:09:40.720 --> 0:09:44.640 thinks he'll be healthy. Is that an improvement for the 0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:47.800 Jacksonville Jaguars? Or will a R fifteen who is a 0:09:47.840 --> 0:09:50.520 free agent, well, he tests the market. Well, there is 0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:53.600 word today that the Jacksonville Jaguars, because they got a 0:09:53.640 --> 0:09:58.599 ton of money in caps, they might franchise tag Allen Robinson. 0:09:58.840 --> 0:10:01.000 He's got They've got them, need to do it. Allen 0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:04.360 Robinson is definitely one of the top wide receivers in 0:10:04.480 --> 0:10:07.440 free agency. So if they bring him back, could that 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:10.400 be another weapon to help loosen up the box for 0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:13.640 guys like Leonard Fournette, a trusted guy for Blake Bortles 0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:17.200 to throw to. That is absolutely possible. Keep an eye 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:20.600 on that still in the wide receiver market their reports 0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:24.320 out of Baltimore that they may be a suitor for 0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:27.800 Jarvis Landry. We're hearing that Jarvis Landry will likely not 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:31.199 come back to the Miami Dolphins. And we're hearing that 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:35.120 the Ravens were interested in Jarvis Landry last year, but 0:10:35.280 --> 0:10:38.560 instead they went ahead and made the move for Jeremy Macklin. 0:10:38.800 --> 0:10:40.880 Could Macklin be on the move? Might they be looking 0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:43.520 for Jarvis Landry. Landry I do not think will wind 0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:46.280 up back in Miami doesn't look like the Dolphins have 0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:49.920 really appreciated him, so he is likely a wide receiver 0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:53.880 on the move as well. Going into a coordinator news, 0:10:54.640 --> 0:10:58.760 the Giants have hired James Beckter as their new defensive coordinator. 0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:02.600 So long to Steve Spagnolo. Bector was a former Cardinals 0:11:02.679 --> 0:11:05.480 defensive coordinator. Here's what I think is interesting about that one. 0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:09.320 He and the Cardinals they run a three four system. Okay, 0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:13.240 three down lineman, four linebackers. The Giants for years have 0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:16.160 run a four or three system. So what happens to 0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:18.800 their edge rushers on the D line? J P. P 0:11:19.160 --> 0:11:22.760 Olivier Vernon how do they move into what likely will 0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.319 be a three four scheme? I think That is something 0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:27.880 interesting to watch when if you're a Giants fan in 0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:30.240 h O T A S and in the off season, 0:11:30.480 --> 0:11:33.480 how if they migrate over to that scheme? And other 0:11:33.559 --> 0:11:37.040 offense and other coordinator news, Daryl Bevil is set to 0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:41.560 interview for the now vacant Minnesota offensive coordinator role. Remember 0:11:41.559 --> 0:11:44.760 that would be replacing I believe Pat Sherman. Pat Sherman 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:47.120 moving on to be the new head coach of the 0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:49.920 New York Football Giants, where he has just hired James 0:11:49.920 --> 0:11:54.160 Beckter as his defensive coordinator. Bevil was actually there in 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:57.040 Minnesota from two thousand and six to two thousand and ten, 0:11:57.120 --> 0:11:58.920 and if you remember there that was kind of like 0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:01.160 the height of Adrian Pete person. That was when they 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:03.880 had uh they went to the NFC Championship game one year. 0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:06.120 I believe it was two thousand and nine they did that. 0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:09.439 So a reunion of sorts if that does in fact 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:12.360 happen right now. Darynble is just set to interview back 0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:15.920 there in Minnesota and also news, Josh McCown says he 0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:18.000 wants to come back next season. This is the guy 0:12:18.000 --> 0:12:20.000 who's gonna be thirty nine years old. But let me 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:23.520 tell you something. You put Josh McCown in this quarterback 0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:26.480 merry go round, and he's not the worst option for 0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:31.600 a team. I'd rather have him over say Sam Bradford. Okay, 0:12:31.720 --> 0:12:35.160 Josh McCown was like QB at late, like in November 0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:38.000 and December before he got hurt. He's also saying he's 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:40.280 open to a return with the New York Jets. The 0:12:40.360 --> 0:12:42.880 Jets have said they are open to having him back. 0:12:43.160 --> 0:12:45.480 I could see him being back on a one year 0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:48.520 deal as also as they maybe nurture and develop a 0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:52.320 rookie quarterback potentially one day draft number six. Overall, I 0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:55.320 would love that to be maybe a guy like Lamar Jackson, 0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:58.120 maybe a guy like Baker Mayfield. We will see as 0:12:58.160 --> 0:13:00.320 we move on to the draft. In the last thing, 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:02.960 I'll say this is not a note from around the NFL, 0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:06.040 but this is an update to a story that I 0:13:06.080 --> 0:13:09.000 talked about. Remember I talked about the hashtag times of 0:13:09.120 --> 0:13:12.880 hashtag me to the Ali Raceman testimony. I announced, Uh, 0:13:12.920 --> 0:13:15.400 I think it was yesterday's show that three board members 0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:19.800 from USA Gymnastics stepped down. That was yesterday. Today, the 0:13:19.880 --> 0:13:24.080 doctor himself, Larry Nasser, was sentenced to between forty and 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:28.440 a hundred and seventy five years in prison for is 0:13:28.760 --> 0:13:31.800 what is now proven to be continued abuse of some 0:13:31.920 --> 0:13:35.640 of the team. USA. Jim jymnasts Um, the judge when 0:13:35.640 --> 0:13:38.640 they were, you know, issuing the sentence, said they just 0:13:38.720 --> 0:13:41.199 signed his death warrant. It does look like Larry Nasa 0:13:41.280 --> 0:13:44.400 will be in prison for a long long time. Okay, 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:46.800 I mentioned Cam Newton though. Check this out. The NFL 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:49.240 and the NFL p A they had a joint um 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:53.840 investigation about the Cam Newton injury that took place in 0:13:53.920 --> 0:13:56.280 that wild card game against the Saints, and they have 0:13:56.400 --> 0:13:59.440 come out and say that there is no violation to 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:02.520 the cushion protocol. And here's what they say. They say 0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:07.800 that Cam Newton did not display quote unquote gross motor instability. 0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:11.280 That is the term that is being used, and but 0:14:11.320 --> 0:14:15.440 they were a little passive aggressive. Today, the NFL says, 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:18.600 quote unquote, the medical facts are clear and straightforward. Mr 0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:20.880 Newton had an injury to his eye and it is 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:23.720 very clear in the video and he complained of that 0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:26.320 at impact. He testified to that and so did the 0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:30.320 medical staff. He said he started jogging display no gross 0:14:30.360 --> 0:14:33.680 motor issues, was instructed by the coaches on the sideline 0:14:33.680 --> 0:14:36.360 to take a knee, saying that he didn't like fall down, 0:14:36.440 --> 0:14:39.360 he was instructed to take a knee. And they also 0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:41.920 say that when he was elected to take a knee, 0:14:42.120 --> 0:14:45.080 he did so in an awkward fashion because he could 0:14:45.080 --> 0:14:49.720 not bend his right knee normally. Ironically enough, today the 0:14:49.720 --> 0:14:52.280 Panthers come out and say that Cam did in fact 0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:56.800 sustained ligament and cartilage damage to his knee in the playoffs, 0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:02.600 and he had this i injury. And then the NFL 0:15:02.640 --> 0:15:05.120 goes on to say that this points out something that 0:15:05.280 --> 0:15:10.480 armchair doctors cannot make. Concussion diagnosis is on video alone. 0:15:11.160 --> 0:15:14.200 They say there are two things that allow concussion diagnosis 0:15:14.200 --> 0:15:18.080 based on video, a seizure or the so called fencing posture. 0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:19.960 They go on to say, if you don't have that, 0:15:20.000 --> 0:15:22.600 you cannot say with any certainty that he had a concussion. 0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:26.800 And it shows how irresponsible people can be and offering 0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:30.920 an opinion without the facts. They're coming after your boys. 0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:34.480 Speeds the spitting statistician, along with many other people in 0:15:34.520 --> 0:15:37.840 the industry, that we're saying that this was a joke. 0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:42.480 Richard Sherman said it was a joke. Countless other players 0:15:42.720 --> 0:15:45.280 have said it is a joke, but they're kind of 0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:49.360 defending themselves and also saying it is irresponsible of other 0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:52.200 people to do it. I'm gonna tell you something right now. 0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:57.800 Also in this article, they then talk about that the 0:15:57.920 --> 0:16:00.440 NFL and the NFL p A and their joint review 0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:04.080 that they noticed, um a lot of changes to the 0:16:04.080 --> 0:16:07.440 protocol that have to happen. We're gonna get into what 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:12.320 some of those changes are on tomorrow's episode of Fantasy Freestyle. 0:16:12.360 --> 0:16:14.560 But I gotta tell you this, how are you gonna say, 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:17.760 at one side of your mouth that everything was followed, 0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:21.960 everything was clear and obvious on video, and it's irresponsible 0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:25.560 of us to actually care about player safety, Yet in 0:16:25.600 --> 0:16:29.320 the same breath say that things like the Tom Savage 0:16:29.360 --> 0:16:33.880 injury in week fourteen inspired a review of the policies 0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:37.200 and that there are a number of changes that need 0:16:37.280 --> 0:16:40.040 to be made in the policy. To me, it only 0:16:40.080 --> 0:16:43.200 adds to my argument that the protocol is a joke, 0:16:43.520 --> 0:16:46.440 that this is only for the guys of public safety 0:16:46.600 --> 0:16:50.080 to placate the public and make them think they care 0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:54.200 about players safety. It's not that they actually care about 0:16:54.280 --> 0:16:59.000 this hashtag all brains matter. I still think that in 0:16:59.040 --> 0:17:03.720 an artificial way. Rob Gronkowski will absolutely be cleared for 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:08.199 the Super Bowl. You've heard me about this a number 0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:11.080 of times, but I do think it's very interesting that 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:13.560 the NFL was a little passive aggressive, saying that it's 0:17:13.600 --> 0:17:16.960 irresponsible for anybody to comment to say that these were 0:17:17.240 --> 0:17:21.160 clearly evident on video that he had an eye injury. 0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:23.440 They're trying to show like the slow motion of when 0:17:23.440 --> 0:17:25.439 he got hit and that his helmet was twisted, so 0:17:25.440 --> 0:17:28.680 they're saying the visor actually did get into his eye. 0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:31.600 I think it's crazy, and I think that the fact 0:17:31.800 --> 0:17:33.720 that the NFL and the NFL p A is so 0:17:33.880 --> 0:17:38.320 defensive about it, so passive aggressive about it, only adds 0:17:38.400 --> 0:17:41.919 to my theory that they know that they're just you know, 0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:45.440 shining it up and calling it shineola. Shall we say 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:47.520 when we come back, though, you know in the Fantasy Freestyle, 0:17:47.640 --> 0:17:50.160 we're gonna talk about the latest inductees to the Major 0:17:50.200 --> 0:17:53.440 League Baseball Hall of Fame. I'm surprised by some, I'm 0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:55.800 excited about others. Come on back, we'll talk about it. 0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:01.440 Money is very suss some of my rights. It's an 0:18:01.440 --> 0:18:05.280 executive who turns last year's trash into this year's cash. 0:18:05.400 --> 0:18:08.119 To my left. The man that calls himself Wall Street 0:18:08.160 --> 0:18:10.960 with a more productive Fantasy see football season than he's 0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:14.440 ever had before the crazy.

If I'm North Turner, I'm 0:18:33.960 --> 0:18:35.840 going in there. I'm looking at McCaffrey and saying, look, 0:18:35.840 --> 0:18:37.760 he held up fine over whole season. Yeah, he was 0:18:37.880 --> 0:18:40.120 budgeted a little bit, but he's just because he's small 0:18:40.200 --> 0:18:42.360 doesn't mean he can't hold up over full season. Let's 0:18:42.400 --> 0:18:44.080 throw that out the window. He's a he's a very 0:18:44.080 --> 0:18:47.320 strongly kid. He'll be fine. Now utilize him, because I 0:18:47.320 --> 0:18:49.680 don't think they did. I think they underutilize him last year, 0:18:49.680 --> 0:18:51.720 and I think that's one of the downfalls of that offense. 0:18:52.400 --> 0:18:57.600 Days four two six pm Eastern time Zone dot Com 0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:02.840 Slash Radio bs SO Live with Robert Litow on the 0:19:02.920 --> 0:19:07.480 Fantasy Sports Radio Network with the Big Ballers come to 0:19:07.600 --> 0:19:12.760 listen Monday through Friday, eight eastern, five Pacific.

Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle right here 0:22:14.400 --> 0:22:17.879 on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Dave Martinez, smitten statistician, 0:22:17.920 --> 0:22:20.800 the stable Genius, holding you down from seven to eight 0:22:20.880 --> 0:22:24.719 pm as always Monday through Friday here on the Fantasy 0:22:24.760 --> 0:22:27.920 Sports Radio Network. We were just talking about Cam and 0:22:28.000 --> 0:22:30.439 the concussion protocol and they, you know, they have basically 0:22:30.520 --> 0:22:35.879 absolved the Carolina Panthers and the uh independent neurologists. I'm 0:22:35.920 --> 0:22:38.879 telling you, I find it very interesting that today they 0:22:38.920 --> 0:22:41.320 also come out with the fact that Cam has ligament 0:22:41.359 --> 0:22:43.879 and cartilage damage in his knee and that's why he 0:22:44.000 --> 0:22:47.200 went to the ground awkwardly when he took a knee. 0:22:47.280 --> 0:22:51.440 After that, you know, they're also saying, hey, it's irresponsible 0:22:51.600 --> 0:22:55.320 for people to make these diagnosis via video. It was 0:22:55.560 --> 0:22:58.840 clear that the helmet was twisted around and got him 0:22:58.880 --> 0:23:01.680 in the eye. All this stuff trying to absolve them 0:23:01.960 --> 0:23:04.960 of what I think is the absolutely obvious fact that 0:23:05.040 --> 0:23:09.720 the concussion protocol, especially in the NFL playoffs, is a joke. 0:23:10.080 --> 0:23:14.080 I agree with Richard Sherman who said it so much himself. 0:23:14.280 --> 0:23:18.720 Interestingly enough, though, I just literally over the commercial break 0:23:19.000 --> 0:23:22.879 saw the first Patriots injury report for super Bow fifty 0:23:22.920 --> 0:23:26.359 two and Tom Brady not on the injury report at all. 0:23:26.480 --> 0:23:29.040 His hand is gonna be fine. They're taking out the stitches. 0:23:29.040 --> 0:23:34.040 He's gonna be alright. Rob Gronkowski is listed on the 0:23:34.560 --> 0:23:39.720 on the report. The injury report with a concussion very 0:23:39.880 --> 0:23:43.440 interesting to me. We will keep an eye out on 0:23:43.800 --> 0:23:46.160 that for the next week or week and a half. 0:23:46.320 --> 0:23:48.320 And also, I'm gonna tell you something tomorrow on the 0:23:48.359 --> 0:23:51.879 Fantasy Freestyle. We're gonna talk about all the elements of 0:23:53.920 --> 0:23:59.560 the protocol that is changing or being improved. Because the NFL, 0:23:59.680 --> 0:24:01.639 NFL p A, they came out with his joint thing 0:24:01.720 --> 0:24:04.760 saying it was okay what Cam did, what the Carolina 0:24:04.800 --> 0:24:08.800 Panthers did is okay with Cam but we need to 0:24:08.880 --> 0:24:13.240 improve the policy talking out of both sides of their 0:24:13.880 --> 0:24:16.200 a news if you ask me. But let's keep it 0:24:16.280 --> 0:24:18.440 moving there and shed some light. Let's be positive here 0:24:18.600 --> 0:24:21.159 because something now so there's happened today. Only about an 0:24:21.200 --> 0:24:23.400 hour hour and a half ago was that Major League 0:24:23.400 --> 0:24:27.280 Baseball UM announced their Hall of Fame class for two 0:24:27.359 --> 0:24:30.080 thousand and nineteen. So once again I want to give 0:24:30.119 --> 0:24:33.080 a big shout out to first time ballot their first 0:24:33.160 --> 0:24:35.960 year on the ballot, Chipper Jones gets in with nine 0:24:36.280 --> 0:24:40.320 seven point two percent of the vote, very close to unanimous. 0:24:40.560 --> 0:24:45.040 Vladimir Guerrero gets in with ninety two point nine percent 0:24:45.200 --> 0:24:48.159 of the vote. Lad in his second year of eligibility. 0:24:48.520 --> 0:24:52.520 Jim Pomey and his first year of eligibility gets in 0:24:52.600 --> 0:24:55.159 with eighty nine point eight percent of the vote. And 0:24:55.200 --> 0:24:58.320 then Trevor Hoffman, the all time Saves leader, gets in 0:24:58.480 --> 0:25:01.520 with seventy nine point nine percent of the vote, this 0:25:01.720 --> 0:25:06.640 in his third year of eligibility. So obviously we congratulate 0:25:06.920 --> 0:25:09.240 everybody there. And here's the thing, here's what I want 0:25:09.240 --> 0:25:13.480 to talk about this segment US US experts and analysts 0:25:13.520 --> 0:25:16.119 here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, we did our 0:25:16.200 --> 0:25:19.159 own balloting, okay, And I wanted to dive into that 0:25:19.600 --> 0:25:21.520 a little bit because I think it's interesting. These are 0:25:21.640 --> 0:25:25.440 these are people who all have you know, experienced perspectives, 0:25:25.920 --> 0:25:29.200 some older than others, some you know, from the East coast, 0:25:29.280 --> 0:25:31.320 some from the West coast. So there's no you know, 0:25:31.640 --> 0:25:34.520 East coast bias, shall we say. I gotta tell you, 0:25:34.800 --> 0:25:36.240 and we did a little thing about who would you 0:25:36.359 --> 0:25:39.200 vote for out of all these candidates. I voted for Lad, 0:25:39.320 --> 0:25:42.000 I voted for Chipper, I voted for Jim Tomay. I 0:25:42.160 --> 0:25:45.480 did not vote for Trevor Hoffman. And I gotta tell 0:25:45.560 --> 0:25:50.280 you why. The reason for me is that, listen, his 0:25:50.520 --> 0:25:54.560 six hundred and one career saves cannot be understated, right, 0:25:54.920 --> 0:25:58.240 And the fact that I think it's important that closers do, 0:25:58.520 --> 0:26:01.359 in fact get into the all of Fame, especially if 0:26:01.440 --> 0:26:03.960 my guy, Marianna Rivera is gonna be and I'm gonna 0:26:04.000 --> 0:26:05.880 tell you something, Marianna Rivers are gonna be a first 0:26:05.880 --> 0:26:09.359 ballot Hall of Famer. Okay. So I I like that 0:26:09.520 --> 0:26:12.080 he has his six and one career saves. I like 0:26:12.440 --> 0:26:14.440 that he has a career e r A of only 0:26:14.560 --> 0:26:17.600 two point eight seven. I like that his career whip 0:26:18.080 --> 0:26:21.000 um is one point oh five. I think, listen, he's 0:26:21.000 --> 0:26:25.639 had a great career. Here's the thing though, for me, Hoffman, 0:26:26.720 --> 0:26:28.680 I feel like that he was more of a compiler 0:26:29.680 --> 0:26:31.919 at any point in time. There are very few periods 0:26:31.920 --> 0:26:33.840 of time where I would have said that Trevor Hoffman 0:26:33.960 --> 0:26:37.240 was one of the three best closers in Major League Baseball. 0:26:37.840 --> 0:26:39.639 You know, he was always one of those guys. And 0:26:39.760 --> 0:26:41.800 we say it now in fantasy all the time. You 0:26:41.880 --> 0:26:43.840 know there are gonna be some closers out there that 0:26:43.960 --> 0:26:48.159 get saves in the season, But aren't that amazing. Think 0:26:48.160 --> 0:26:51.800 about Fernando Rodney. He was almost perfect and save situations 0:26:51.880 --> 0:26:56.320 last year, but you know he wasn't a dominant, feared picture. 0:26:56.760 --> 0:27:00.960 Was Trevor Hoffman ever really feared, ever really dominant. He 0:27:01.119 --> 0:27:04.399 had a great changeup, right, And maybe that's part of it, 0:27:04.720 --> 0:27:07.240 because he was not this like power arm that would 0:27:07.280 --> 0:27:10.000 blow you away. He had an incredible change up, He 0:27:10.080 --> 0:27:13.359 had great location, things of that nature. But listen, I 0:27:13.440 --> 0:27:16.520 can't hate if you get over six hundred career saves, 0:27:16.840 --> 0:27:18.720 that means you were doing it and doing it and 0:27:18.920 --> 0:27:22.000 doing it well for a very long time. So I 0:27:22.080 --> 0:27:24.159 tipped my cap also because it clears the way from 0:27:24.200 --> 0:27:29.439 my guy, Mariano Rivera to get in. Here's the thing though, uh, 0:27:29.600 --> 0:27:33.680 Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, they continue to have to wait here. 0:27:33.720 --> 0:27:36.800 In the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, we decided to vote 0:27:36.840 --> 0:27:39.400 them in. Barry Bonds got a hundred percent of our vote. 0:27:39.800 --> 0:27:43.399 Clemens got of our vote. It looks like Jake Ceeley 0:27:43.480 --> 0:27:45.400 is the only guy who did not vote in Clements 0:27:45.600 --> 0:27:49.080 and he explained why previously on on Target Fantasy. Let 0:27:49.119 --> 0:27:52.680 me tell you something. Barry Bonds, if you take his 0:27:52.840 --> 0:27:56.439 career like Jess with Pittsburgh, I think he's a Hall 0:27:56.480 --> 0:27:58.119 of famer. He was like a three time m v 0:27:58.280 --> 0:28:03.359 P guy just with Pittsburgh. Like, yes, we know he 0:28:03.440 --> 0:28:06.119 has seven sixty two home runs. Yes we know his 0:28:06.400 --> 0:28:10.639 career ops is over a thousand. But here's the other 0:28:10.720 --> 0:28:15.600 thing about guy like Barry Bonds gold glove. Five hundred 0:28:15.640 --> 0:28:21.159 and fourteen stolen bases. That's not really a steroids thing. 0:28:21.560 --> 0:28:24.640 Five hundred and fourteen stolen bases is a hundred more 0:28:25.240 --> 0:28:28.360 than Johnny Damon who was on the ballot this year 0:28:28.400 --> 0:28:30.280 in his first year, and he was known as a 0:28:30.359 --> 0:28:33.159 run scored, stolen base guy. Barry Bonds has more than 0:28:33.200 --> 0:28:38.120 a hundred career stolen bases, more than Johnny Damon, Roger Clemens. 0:28:38.160 --> 0:28:41.560 Come on now, his four thousand, six hundred seventy two 0:28:41.600 --> 0:28:45.160 career strikeouts. Most of all time, he had a career 0:28:45.320 --> 0:28:48.080 three point one to e r A, mostly in the 0:28:48.240 --> 0:28:52.720 Al East, mostly in the steroids era in the Al East. 0:28:52.760 --> 0:28:54.720 Here's the other guys, I mean, all right, Vlag gets in, 0:28:54.800 --> 0:28:56.320 I love it, Chipper gets in, I love it. Let 0:28:56.360 --> 0:28:57.680 me tell you some of the other guys I voted 0:28:57.720 --> 0:29:01.600 for that I voted for in our Fantasy Sports network. 0:29:02.000 --> 0:29:05.080 I voted for Manny Ramirez. Now. I know that he 0:29:05.200 --> 0:29:07.760 has failed steroid tests. I know that he wasn't the 0:29:07.800 --> 0:29:10.800 best with the media, but honestly, he's the best right 0:29:10.880 --> 0:29:14.960 handed hitter I have ever seen in my life, in 0:29:15.120 --> 0:29:17.440 my lifetime, in this generation, I believe he is the 0:29:17.520 --> 0:29:21.040 best right handed hitter that we have seen. I mean, listen, 0:29:21.280 --> 0:29:27.440 Manny's career batting average is three twelve. That's on par 0:29:27.800 --> 0:29:30.040 with guys who were supposed to be good professional hitters, 0:29:30.080 --> 0:29:33.720 guys like Edgar Martinez, who I also voted for, same 0:29:33.920 --> 0:29:37.520 career average of three twelve. Manny Ramirez fifteenth all time 0:29:37.600 --> 0:29:41.560 in Homer's nineteenth all time in Ribby's. But he was like, 0:29:41.720 --> 0:29:43.720 to me, it's the ant. It's the opposite of the 0:29:43.760 --> 0:29:46.640 Trevor Hoffman. Right with Trevor Hoffman as a compiler, I say, like, 0:29:46.840 --> 0:29:50.040 was he ever the one you feared? Manny Ramirez was 0:29:50.160 --> 0:29:54.440 always feared every time he's stepped in the box. And 0:29:54.560 --> 0:29:57.520 I think he's helped his case in recent months or 0:29:57.600 --> 0:30:00.080 years being kind of an advocate of the game, go 0:30:00.240 --> 0:30:04.360 into Asia, coaching the Chicago Cubs young mostly young young 0:30:04.440 --> 0:30:09.560 Dominican players. And here's the other thing. Um he went 0:30:09.600 --> 0:30:12.520 to George Washington High School, which is in Washington Heights 0:30:12.520 --> 0:30:16.360 where I currently live. Um, I played against George Washington 0:30:16.480 --> 0:30:20.680 High School when I played when I played baseball as well. 0:30:20.840 --> 0:30:23.600 And so you know, I gotta love another Spanish guy 0:30:24.040 --> 0:30:27.040 from New York City, So I gotta have Manny Ramirez 0:30:27.160 --> 0:30:29.800 in there. I had Edgar Martinez in there. Let me 0:30:29.840 --> 0:30:32.840 tell you something, as a Yankees fan back then in 0:30:32.920 --> 0:30:35.680 the mid nineties, it was him. It was him and 0:30:35.800 --> 0:30:39.600 Ken Griffey Jr. That killed us every single time Chipper 0:30:39.680 --> 0:30:41.760 Jones and I mean, excuse me, and I understand the 0:30:41.880 --> 0:30:43.840 d H argument, right, he was only on one side 0:30:43.840 --> 0:30:46.600 of the ball, but it's three twelve lifetime average. I 0:30:46.720 --> 0:30:48.720 understand he didn't have the power stats of some of 0:30:48.760 --> 0:30:52.560 these other guys, but as an opponent, when Edgar Martinez 0:30:52.600 --> 0:30:55.920 stepped into the box, you were worried. And to me, 0:30:56.440 --> 0:30:58.760 that is one of the biggest measures, like who are 0:30:58.800 --> 0:31:01.320 you scared of? Who are the really the elite players 0:31:01.400 --> 0:31:03.640 for a period of time as opposed to some of 0:31:03.680 --> 0:31:07.880 the compilers. Okay, I voted for Sammy Sosa. I voted 0:31:07.920 --> 0:31:10.160 for Sammy Sosa because I'm gonna tell you something. He's 0:31:10.240 --> 0:31:12.440 ninth all time and home runs at six hundred and 0:31:12.560 --> 0:31:16.680 nine for his career. His sixteen hundred sixty seven RBIs 0:31:17.080 --> 0:31:19.840 more than Chipper Jones had in his career and he 0:31:19.920 --> 0:31:22.960 played one less year. I understand the steroids, but this 0:31:23.040 --> 0:31:26.120 guy also hit sixty home runs three times. I am 0:31:26.200 --> 0:31:28.760 a proponent. Listen, how are you gonna tell me that 0:31:28.920 --> 0:31:31.440 just because and and Tony Senkada said this also, How 0:31:31.480 --> 0:31:33.440 are you gonna tell me that just because Jim Tomay 0:31:33.760 --> 0:31:36.040 was never like found to be steroids. He was in 0:31:36.120 --> 0:31:39.640 the same era, he had the same spike in power numbers. 0:31:39.880 --> 0:31:42.720 How are you gonna tell me that Jim Tomay gets 0:31:42.760 --> 0:31:46.440 in on the first ballot, but Sammy Sosa can't get 0:31:46.480 --> 0:31:50.080 in because of the steroids cloud. You can't compare eras anyway. 0:31:50.160 --> 0:31:53.320 I've said this a number of times. You can't compare 0:31:53.360 --> 0:31:55.440 an era with a d H against an ARRA without 0:31:55.440 --> 0:31:57.600 a d H. You can't compare an era where a 0:31:57.680 --> 0:32:01.200 mound was literally raised and lowered. Babe Ruth never hit 0:32:01.280 --> 0:32:04.160 a home run against an African American pitcher. There are 0:32:04.200 --> 0:32:06.920 so many things that define these eras in baseball. I 0:32:07.000 --> 0:32:09.280 feel like you gotta just find the dominant players of 0:32:09.400 --> 0:32:12.480 every era. And while that was Jim Tomay, that was 0:32:12.600 --> 0:32:15.880 also Manny Ramirez, that was also Sammy Sosa, that was 0:32:16.000 --> 0:32:19.360 also Roger Clemens, that was also Barry Bonds. You have 0:32:19.520 --> 0:32:21.600 to let them in. Even if you say this is 0:32:21.640 --> 0:32:25.400 in an era where steriods was prevalent, as you say, 0:32:25.600 --> 0:32:27.600 say with a guy like Babe Ruth, Luke Gary, this 0:32:27.640 --> 0:32:32.360 is in an era before baseball was uh integrated. This 0:32:32.560 --> 0:32:36.880 isn't an era where the mound was literally higher or lower. 0:32:37.000 --> 0:32:38.840 This isn't an era where they didn't have to face 0:32:38.960 --> 0:32:42.640 a d H or interleague play stuff like this. I 0:32:42.680 --> 0:32:45.960 think you can't compare anyway. I also voted for Jim Tomay. 0:32:45.960 --> 0:32:48.680 I voted for Sammy Solsa. Another guy voted for, who 0:32:48.720 --> 0:32:52.360 I think it's very little respect and shouldn't is Larry Walker. 0:32:53.200 --> 0:32:58.960 Larry Walker three thirteen lifetime average lifetime ops. I understand 0:32:59.000 --> 0:33:00.920 he was in Coors Field for a lot of his career, 0:33:01.200 --> 0:33:04.040 but he also had an incredible arm. He did some 0:33:04.160 --> 0:33:07.600 of that in Montreal as well, so I think he 0:33:07.720 --> 0:33:12.280 deserves some consideration. But again, we congratulate Vladimir Guerrero, Trevor Hoffman, 0:33:12.640 --> 0:33:15.120 Chipper Jones, don't call me Larry. He named his first 0:33:15.200 --> 0:33:17.680 kid Shay because he did so well against the Mets. 0:33:18.000 --> 0:33:20.640 I love that about Chipper Jones, and of course Jim 0:33:20.960 --> 0:33:24.880 Tomay as well. I think they're all deserving eventually, But 0:33:24.960 --> 0:33:27.000 if you let Tomay in on the first ballot, you 0:33:27.120 --> 0:33:29.719 have to start to talk about other guys. What Tomay 0:33:29.920 --> 0:33:33.360 was pure in this spike of power and nobody else. 0:33:33.520 --> 0:33:36.440 He was the only power hitter that gets the six 0:33:36.680 --> 0:33:39.920 d home runs without Royd's. I don't know about that. 0:33:40.000 --> 0:33:42.240 I'm not accusing him. I'm saying let them all in 0:33:43.040 --> 0:33:46.160 this era, they were all great sluggers of the era. 0:33:46.280 --> 0:33:48.640 That's what your boy speeds and spitting statistician has to 0:33:48.760 --> 0:33:51.000 say about that.

Dane Martinez, the spitting statistician, the stable genius, 0:37:26.360 --> 0:37:28.720 coming to you like I do every Monday through Friday 0:37:28.800 --> 0:37:31.200 seven at a p m. Remember, we got some topics 0:37:31.239 --> 0:37:32.759 out there. If you want to join the chat room 0:37:32.800 --> 0:37:34.279 if you want to have your voice be heard, be 0:37:34.360 --> 0:37:36.200 part of the stats over beat cipher. There's so many 0:37:36.239 --> 0:37:37.920 ways to do it. You can get down on the 0:37:38.040 --> 0:37:40.839 chat room and the YouTube feed. You can holler at 0:37:40.880 --> 0:37:43.120 me on Twitter at spitting Speeds, and you could also 0:37:43.200 --> 0:37:46.160 call in at eight four four eight four three six 0:37:46.360 --> 0:37:48.920 eight seven nine. We were talking a little bit about 0:37:48.960 --> 0:37:52.400 the Hall of Fame vote, you know, Vladimir Guerrero, Trevor Hoffman, 0:37:52.480 --> 0:37:55.400 Chipper Jones, Jim Tomay. I think all of them deserve 0:37:55.520 --> 0:37:58.399 to be in the Hall of Fame eventually. I think 0:37:58.440 --> 0:38:00.640 I was a little surprised that they let Jim Tomay 0:38:00.760 --> 0:38:03.200 in on his first ballot. I wonder if they're kind 0:38:03.200 --> 0:38:06.560 of sending a message to the steroid users, you know, 0:38:06.680 --> 0:38:08.960 the people who have been accused or have tested positive, 0:38:09.000 --> 0:38:13.680 the guys like Sammy Sosa, Barry Bonds, Manny Ramirez, Roger Clemens, 0:38:13.800 --> 0:38:17.680 and others, by letting in Jim Tomay right away, saying 0:38:17.760 --> 0:38:20.480 that it's not really about the stats, you know, because 0:38:20.520 --> 0:38:24.920 Tomay's six hundred and twelve home runs and sixteen hundred 0:38:25.080 --> 0:38:29.040 ninety nine ribbies are no different really than Sammy Sosa's 0:38:29.200 --> 0:38:32.400 six hundred and nine home runs sixteen hundred and sixties 0:38:32.480 --> 0:38:35.640 seven ribbies. Tomy and Sammy are actually eighth and ninth 0:38:35.760 --> 0:38:43.280 all time in home runs. What's the difference? Sammy Sosa accused, convicted, tried, 0:38:43.520 --> 0:38:47.600 Everyone agrees he did steroids. Meanwhile, Jim Tomay seems to 0:38:47.680 --> 0:38:50.600 be kind of squeaky clean, and so it seems like 0:38:51.080 --> 0:38:53.520 they might be sending a message. I don't know if 0:38:53.560 --> 0:38:56.719 I agree with it. I instead would rather, you know, 0:38:56.920 --> 0:38:59.880 compare just people within an era and understand that this 0:39:00.120 --> 0:39:02.759 was an era where steroids were prevalent. I mean, it 0:39:02.880 --> 0:39:06.480 was prevalent for everybody. These guys, you know, Jim Tomay 0:39:06.560 --> 0:39:09.000 hit six hundred twelve home runs, Samy associated six hundred 0:39:09.000 --> 0:39:11.120 and nine. But he hits some of these home runs 0:39:11.239 --> 0:39:14.200 against pictures who were on steroids. So what are you 0:39:14.239 --> 0:39:16.720 gonna do? There's been so many things, from the mound 0:39:16.880 --> 0:39:19.279 being raised and lowered, to the addition of the d H, 0:39:19.400 --> 0:39:22.520 to the addition of free agency, to the integration of 0:39:22.680 --> 0:39:25.080 the game to now you know, now you've got to 0:39:25.120 --> 0:39:29.600 compete against you know, a ton of Spanish baseball players 0:39:29.680 --> 0:39:33.239 and Asian baseball players and African American baseball players, a 0:39:33.400 --> 0:39:38.320 much different game than guys like Duke Snyder and Babe 0:39:38.400 --> 0:39:41.759 Ruth played against. But I digress. In the chat room 0:39:41.840 --> 0:39:43.840 on Twitter, you can call in if you want to 0:39:43.960 --> 0:39:46.279 engage with the Stats over Beat cipher on. That will 0:39:46.320 --> 0:39:48.920 be going to my guy Danny Otto a little bit 0:39:49.080 --> 0:39:51.600 later on in the show. But here's what I want 0:39:51.640 --> 0:39:54.920 to do, okay, because we talked about it all the 0:39:55.000 --> 0:39:57.759 time here Stats over Beats, right, we talked about our 0:39:57.840 --> 0:40:01.040 guys Young cause the effect, my boy big shout out 0:40:01.080 --> 0:40:04.000 to Rhodawear and Kenneth Cashman. These are guys that are 0:40:04.040 --> 0:40:07.000 doing stats over beats here in the fantasy game. We 0:40:07.160 --> 0:40:11.160 talked recently about Cole Beasley in his eighties stings track. 0:40:11.440 --> 0:40:14.200 We talked about Levy on bell A k A Juice 0:40:14.719 --> 0:40:18.320 and Wednesday, right, we even yesterday played our guy Marvin 0:40:18.440 --> 0:40:22.160 Bagley the Third who was a freshman at Duke and 0:40:22.239 --> 0:40:24.640 he dropped some bars for us, and we talked about 0:40:24.680 --> 0:40:27.200 that a little bit as well. And our guy Chris 0:40:27.320 --> 0:40:30.680 the analyst Ventra. We're forming kind of rankings here where 0:40:30.760 --> 0:40:33.200 on the continuum. You know, we got Dame Lillard on 0:40:33.360 --> 0:40:36.880 one side, we got Chris Ventra on the other side, 0:40:37.400 --> 0:40:40.160 and we thought Marvin Bagley the third was pretty decent. 0:40:40.480 --> 0:40:43.200 We got another guy that we want to talk about 0:40:43.320 --> 0:40:47.560 today today. A J. Francis. He's the nose tackle for 0:40:47.640 --> 0:40:51.800 the Washington football team. He goes by Frank. A J. Francis, 0:40:51.960 --> 0:40:54.719 a k A. Frank. He had a track recently called 0:40:54.800 --> 0:40:58.879 Olympic Gold. Okay, featuring a guy known as Jay lou 0:40:59.400 --> 0:41:01.960 And and Bovona. Because I know you're gonna get into 0:41:02.000 --> 0:41:04.840 this within critique this a little bit. I know you 0:41:04.960 --> 0:41:07.680 are a fan more of kind of the Northeast brand 0:41:07.840 --> 0:41:11.319 of flow over beats as opposed to the trap game, 0:41:11.440 --> 0:41:14.359 the dirty South kind of music that's lower flow. I'm 0:41:14.360 --> 0:41:17.120 gonna tell you right now, Baba Bona A J. Francis 0:41:17.200 --> 0:41:20.759 is more of a Southern style, shall we say? But 0:41:21.160 --> 0:41:24.359 but let's hear a little bit of Olympic Gold by 0:41:24.480 --> 0:41:27.279 A J. Frankancis. He goes by Frank. He's a nose 0:41:27.320 --> 0:41:30.400 tackle for the Washington football team. Let's get into that 0:41:30.680 --> 0:41:32.879 a little bit, A Bavona, won't we play a little 0:41:32.880 --> 0:41:51.839 bit of that year. I'm I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm I'm 0:41:51.880 --> 0:41:55.640 going forgive me God, I've been switching cars with your women. 0:41:55.840 --> 0:41:59.200 Switch ducking cop stands Nick sise life, how I'm living 0:41:59.760 --> 0:42:05.239 so white lists I could barely tell the difference all 0:42:05.280 --> 0:42:07.600 of their money I spend. They want to know how 0:42:07.640 --> 0:42:12.840 I did. I'm touching them all from spending PlayStation with 0:42:12.960 --> 0:42:16.920 the game you're with the word play. All right, So 0:42:17.000 --> 0:42:18.759 there's what we got. We got a little bit right 0:42:18.840 --> 0:42:22.560 there of uh A J. Francis and and here's the 0:42:22.640 --> 0:42:24.360 thing I'm gonna give you my I'm gonna give you 0:42:24.520 --> 0:42:26.640 my report on at first Bivona and then I want 0:42:26.680 --> 0:42:32.600 to hear from you as wells. I was like, that's 0:42:32.600 --> 0:42:34.520 what I gotta say. It was like, because here's the 0:42:34.640 --> 0:42:38.480 thing with these Southern rappers. I think it's lowered expectations, 0:42:38.560 --> 0:42:41.080 like it's easier to fit a righting scheme and something 0:42:41.160 --> 0:42:44.719 that's a little slower in my opinion. Okay, I don't 0:42:44.840 --> 0:42:47.680 like all the foul language either. Here on the Fantasy 0:42:47.719 --> 0:42:50.600 Sports Radio Network. We gotta clean that up a little bit. 0:42:50.920 --> 0:42:52.840 But I don't know. I thought he was like, okay, 0:42:53.520 --> 0:42:56.200 but he sounds the same as Levon Bell over that 0:42:56.280 --> 0:42:59.120 slow track beat, the same as like I heard Lonzo 0:42:59.239 --> 0:43:02.479 ball wrapping. Also that southern kind of style that flow 0:43:02.560 --> 0:43:05.160 over the same beats. It's kind of all the same 0:43:05.320 --> 0:43:09.640 to me. Meanwhile, Marvin Bageley, I thought, actually brought some lyricism, 0:43:09.760 --> 0:43:13.440 so for me, A J. Francis, I got him right in. 0:43:13.880 --> 0:43:16.000 I got him in the Levy on Bell Range. Okay, 0:43:16.239 --> 0:43:18.279 I got Cole Beasley even a little better. I like 0:43:18.400 --> 0:43:20.880 Marvin Bagley the third a little better, you know. I 0:43:21.040 --> 0:43:23.720 like Young Cars and my boy Kenneth Cashman from Rhoda 0:43:23.760 --> 0:43:26.080 War a little bit better. I will say this, I 0:43:26.200 --> 0:43:28.359 will give it to A. J. Francis over our boy 0:43:28.440 --> 0:43:32.240 Chris Ventra, because he at least finished his verse. Hey, Bavona, 0:43:32.320 --> 0:43:33.839 what do you think about what we just heard from 0:43:33.920 --> 0:43:36.400 A J. Francis. I know you're not as into the 0:43:36.480 --> 0:43:40.600 southern drawl, that scissor kind of you know, trap game music, 0:43:40.640 --> 0:43:41.960 But what do you think about what we heard out 0:43:42.000 --> 0:43:45.240 of Frank? Yeah, this is my just general thought about 0:43:45.360 --> 0:43:50.480 the trap game itself, the lyrics, the lazy Yeah, lazy. 0:43:50.600 --> 0:43:53.200 I think that is a great way to describe it. 0:43:53.360 --> 0:43:56.160 Thank you, Chris Pavona. It's lazy, and it's not just 0:43:56.200 --> 0:43:58.560 because we on that lean on that scissor, you know 0:43:58.719 --> 0:44:01.360 in the club. It's because it is lazy. It's slow, 0:44:01.760 --> 0:44:03.360 and all you gotta do is say like two or 0:44:03.440 --> 0:44:05.600 three things in the whole verse, you know. And so 0:44:05.800 --> 0:44:08.720 I agree with you. And that's a great term of anology. 0:44:08.760 --> 0:44:12.440 We're gonna use that now. It is lazy lyricism. I 0:44:12.560 --> 0:44:15.160 agree with you. What where do you think it belongs? Though? 0:44:15.520 --> 0:44:18.239 I put it right around the same place as Levian Bell. 0:44:18.800 --> 0:44:20.759 I actually agree with that. I put it right there 0:44:20.800 --> 0:44:23.320 with that Levyan Bell, like I mean, like I told you, 0:44:23.520 --> 0:44:28.080 I think Levian Bell is blunt's blunt, guts trash. This 0:44:28.280 --> 0:44:31.399 is not for what it is. It's not that bad, 0:44:31.719 --> 0:44:35.319 it really isn't. It's okay, like a scale of one 0:44:35.360 --> 0:44:40.480 to ten. I give it like a you give it okay, 0:44:40.880 --> 0:44:44.160 you give it an on the scale of one. Top right. 0:44:44.360 --> 0:44:46.439 So so I'm fitting it right in there, right above 0:44:46.520 --> 0:44:49.640 Levian Bell, right behind Cole Beasley. So far. So we've 0:44:49.680 --> 0:44:52.760 got seven that we've ranked so far, including A J. Francis. 0:44:52.960 --> 0:44:55.400 I got Young Cos number one, tied for one. I 0:44:55.440 --> 0:44:57.920 got Young Cars and Kenneth Cashman. Those are my boys. 0:44:57.960 --> 0:45:01.080 Stats overbeat Cipher right then I got Arvin Bagley, then 0:45:01.120 --> 0:45:03.879 I got Cold Beasley, then A J. Francis could get 0:45:03.880 --> 0:45:06.279 in there. Then Levan Bell and unfortunately bringing up the 0:45:06.360 --> 0:45:09.840 rear is our guy, the analyst, Chris Venture. Thank you 0:45:09.960 --> 0:45:15.479 for your thumbnail sketch on that one. Bovona drop bomb 0:45:15.600 --> 0:45:17.920 on it. By the way, Now I want to uh, 0:45:18.239 --> 0:45:20.680 We're gonna hear from our guy, Danny Otto as well 0:45:21.040 --> 0:45:24.480 in a little while. Um. What I want to ask 0:45:24.640 --> 0:45:27.800 Danny is if anybody's talking in the chat room and 0:45:27.920 --> 0:45:30.040 if not, I also want to hear what you guys 0:45:30.120 --> 0:45:33.600 think about this um about this Hall of Fame vote? 0:45:33.640 --> 0:45:36.239 What do you think Bovona or Danny Otto? I don't 0:45:36.239 --> 0:45:38.000 see who has the mic down there in the fantasy 0:45:38.040 --> 0:45:40.960 pit of misery. What do you think about Jim Tomay 0:45:41.040 --> 0:45:44.799 getting in in his first year on the ballot? You think, um, 0:45:45.239 --> 0:45:47.120 the Association was trying to send a little bit of 0:45:47.160 --> 0:45:49.239 a message that if you're squeaky clean in terms of 0:45:49.280 --> 0:45:51.840 the steroid rep you get getting real quick. Because his 0:45:52.160 --> 0:45:54.480 his numbers are just the same as Sammy Sosa, as 0:45:54.520 --> 0:45:56.800 Manny Ramirez, it seems like they're trying to stick it 0:45:56.840 --> 0:45:59.200 to the steroid guys. I think it's more about his 0:45:59.400 --> 0:46:03.359 personality when it comes to Jim Tomy and not necessarily 0:46:03.680 --> 0:46:05.839 the fact that he was quote unquote squeaky clean. I mean, 0:46:05.880 --> 0:46:07.839 we know, we may never know. You know, the really 0:46:07.920 --> 0:46:10.000 matter is that you're looking at the personalities of a 0:46:10.000 --> 0:46:13.000 guy like Barry Bonds. You're looking at the strange weirdness 0:46:13.080 --> 0:46:15.160 of Sammy Sosa. You know you're also gonna remember the 0:46:15.200 --> 0:46:17.799 cork bat incident with Sam. So that's a very good 0:46:17.880 --> 0:46:20.920 point to cark bad. I forgot about that posolutely right. 0:46:21.120 --> 0:46:23.239 So my question is this, when have you ever heard 0:46:23.320 --> 0:46:27.359 of any anything bad said about Jim Tommy. You're right, 0:46:27.719 --> 0:46:31.239 You're right, I haven't. But here's the thing. I I 0:46:31.320 --> 0:46:33.040 don't want the Hall of Fame to turn into kind 0:46:33.080 --> 0:46:36.320 of a popularity contest about who was able to schmooze 0:46:36.360 --> 0:46:39.160 with the media best and have a good reputation among 0:46:39.239 --> 0:46:42.200 the media. This should be about your play on the field. 0:46:42.440 --> 0:46:45.000 You could be salty as all get out to the media, 0:46:45.280 --> 0:46:48.120 but if your play on the field and performance warrants it, 0:46:48.360 --> 0:46:50.200 I think you should make it to Cooper's town. I 0:46:50.320 --> 0:46:53.040 hear you that it um that it may not be 0:46:53.200 --> 0:46:55.759 only the squeaky clean part of it visa VI the 0:46:55.800 --> 0:46:59.880 steroids issue, and that it's also kind of the reputation 0:47:00.120 --> 0:47:02.840 they had among the writers in the press box. But 0:47:02.960 --> 0:47:06.040 I still don't think that's right, because Manny Ramirez will 0:47:06.160 --> 0:47:08.920 never have a good reputation among the writers. He had 0:47:08.960 --> 0:47:11.880 that Manny being Manny, go into the bathroom, you know, 0:47:11.960 --> 0:47:14.920 in between innings, going into the Green Monster, all all 0:47:15.040 --> 0:47:18.759 the things that happened with Manny Ramirez. But I still 0:47:18.880 --> 0:47:23.040 maintain he was the best right handed hitter of our generation. 0:47:23.320 --> 0:47:25.640 How can you leave out the all time home run leader, 0:47:25.680 --> 0:47:28.360 the all time strikeout leader, and in my opinion, the 0:47:28.440 --> 0:47:30.960 best right handed hitter we've ever seen. And I understand 0:47:31.320 --> 0:47:34.680 that there is kind of these reputations about it, but 0:47:35.000 --> 0:47:37.879 I don't know, what do you think. I think you're wrong. 0:47:37.960 --> 0:47:40.239 I think Mannie Ramirez will end up in the Hall 0:47:40.280 --> 0:47:43.319 of Fame, not And it's also because he was such 0:47:43.320 --> 0:47:46.319 a wacky guy. But at the same time, he never 0:47:46.440 --> 0:47:50.200 really heard anything quote unquote bad about Manni Ramirez. Yeah 0:47:50.200 --> 0:47:52.720 he was a Weirdoh yeah, he was Manny being being Manny, 0:47:53.160 --> 0:47:55.759 but he never really had an issue with the steroids. 0:47:55.840 --> 0:47:58.120 He never really had an issue. Yeah, he had some 0:47:58.239 --> 0:48:00.040 issues with the media, and like again, he was a 0:48:00.040 --> 0:48:02.840 little bit of a weirdo, But like you said, I 0:48:03.000 --> 0:48:05.400 think and not not only that, mt V p of 0:48:05.480 --> 0:48:07.400 the Ale of the A l C s one of 0:48:07.440 --> 0:48:10.480 the big main reasons why the Red Sox ended their curse. 0:48:11.040 --> 0:48:13.480 I think there's no reason why Many Ramirez shouldn't be 0:48:13.880 --> 0:48:15.279 in the Hall of Fame. All right, So we go 0:48:15.440 --> 0:48:17.160 to the polls real quick. Like I said, I got 0:48:17.239 --> 0:48:19.600 a pull question of will Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens 0:48:19.719 --> 0:48:22.560 ever make it to the Hall of Fame? Some interesting 0:48:22.680 --> 0:48:27.600 responses of you say both eventually? Will thirty percent of 0:48:27.680 --> 0:48:30.359 you say neither will. We're gonna dive into the poll 0:48:30.440 --> 0:48:32.520 and even some of the responses I get when we 0:48:32.680 --> 0:48:34.680 come back here on the Fantasy Freestyle.

He's uh, you know, he's only been you know, 0:55:11.120 --> 0:55:14.360 Manny being Manny. But I do think it's interesting.
