WEBVTT - Trade frenzy recap! Winners/Losers 0:00:05.480 --> 0:00:10.200 Trade alert. While we were chatting, here comes an interesting one. 0:00:10.360 --> 0:00:13.840 Dalton bar Show is going to the Houston Astros for 0:00:14.040 --> 0:00:17.720 Spencer Aarraghetty. Aragedtty left his last start with a little 0:00:17.720 --> 0:00:20.280 foot issue. I remember it was right foot nerve irritation. 0:00:20.360 --> 0:00:23.400 And he started off blazing through the season and then 0:00:23.800 --> 0:00:26.480 hit a roadbump. But let's hit the other side first. 0:00:26.640 --> 0:00:29.960 Dalton bar Show is one of the best defensive center 0:00:29.960 --> 0:00:34.240 fielders in the sport. He has shown flashes of significant 0:00:34.520 --> 0:00:37.760 power surges that included last year in his time with 0:00:37.840 --> 0:00:40.200 the Blue Jays, powers a little bit down this season, 0:00:40.880 --> 0:00:43.560 and then this becomes instantly one of my favorite trades 0:00:43.560 --> 0:00:46.280 of the day. Why because Dalton bar Show is going 0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:53.440 to do a little stroll over to the other Oh yeah, 0:00:53.479 --> 0:00:58.160 I love that barshow tonight against the Blue Jays? Sign 0:00:58.240 --> 0:00:58.560 me up? 0:00:59.320 --> 0:01:02.520 Wow, well, let me change my lot homer om tonight. 0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:03.800 That's fun. 0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:08.160 Oh man, I like these big league for big league guys. 0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:08.399 Right. 0:01:08.480 --> 0:01:10.600 Raghetty started off so good this year, and I don't 0:01:10.640 --> 0:01:11.880 think they were expecting them to be that ga and 0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:14.280 he kind of carried them and kept them alive early 0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:15.880 in the season before Hunter Brown and some of the 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:19.040 other guys have come back. Varshow has been a disappointment 0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:21.039 this year honestly for the Blue Jays for what they 0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:23.040 thought after the way he had the last couple of 0:01:23.120 --> 0:01:27.560 years offensively, defensively is so great. But yeah, I mean, 0:01:27.560 --> 0:01:30.080 this is a guy that can nasts other than neyord 0:01:30.120 --> 0:01:32.440 On Alvarez, and I mean Jeremy Peney has been hoped 0:01:32.760 --> 0:01:33.399 in the outfield. 0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:34.800 Their outfield is awful. 0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:35.959 This is a huge upgrade. 0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:38.400 So anybody they get would be better than what they've had. 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:38.959 Running out there. 0:01:39.000 --> 0:01:42.280 So yeah, I like this, But yeah, I mean they 0:01:42.280 --> 0:01:43.960 had to give up. This shows you, though that the 0:01:44.000 --> 0:01:45.920 Houston Astros don't have a lot in their farm system. 0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:47.640 They had to trade one of their big league starters 0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:48.040 for a big. 0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:51.160 League player under control for a long time too through 0:01:51.160 --> 0:01:54.440 twenty twenty nine, I believe for Spencer Arraghedtty Kratz, what 0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:56.680 do you think of the bar show side of this deal? 0:01:56.800 --> 0:01:59.600 For an Astros team that definitely is in the driver's 0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:01.960 seat right now in the American League West, they're looking around. 0:02:02.000 --> 0:02:03.600 They had a really slow start to the season and 0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:06.200 then each month, just like a few games over five hundred, 0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:09.079 all of a sudden, they look up. They're like, wait, Mariners, 0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:12.680 you're still not here. Oh, Rangers, you want to sell Oh, 0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:14.440 we have the best hitter in the sport this year 0:02:14.440 --> 0:02:16.799 and you're at On Alvarez. Sure, we'll take Dalton bar 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:19.640 Show to run every baseball down and instantly also become 0:02:19.639 --> 0:02:21.320 one of our better hitting outfielders. 0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:25.440 They've already had, They've already had really really good defense. 0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:27.600 So I'm glad that they didn't say, Okay, we're going 0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:30.480 to take a slug in the outfield and you know, 0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:32.680 we're just gonna try to figure it out. So I 0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:36.320 love that they kept their strength, but also kind of 0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:40.079 a hope he hits better because he may just hit 0:02:40.160 --> 0:02:43.880 like the rest of their outfield, but he's not going 0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:46.840 to hurt their defense, which I think Houston center field 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:49.640 is sneaky, one of the more tough center fields. I 0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:51.920 get it, there's no more Towns Hill out there, but 0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:55.240 I think it's tougher than people think with all those 0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:58.639 Jets and Jetties, and you don't have to put Jordan 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:01.320 in left to try to figure out some offense out there. 0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:04.840 Bring it back, bring it back. 0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:09.440 Oh I love hell hell yeah, that's what I love. 0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:11.600 Watching Lance Bergman run up the hill trying to catch 0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:16.079 balls and fall down. That was awesome for baseball. But yeah, 0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:18.080 I agree Crafts. I mean this is this is a 0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:19.680 good trade. This is a win win, I think for 0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:21.880 both teams. And again it's interesting the Blue Jays aren't 0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:24.800 just building for this year. They're building for next year. 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:27.160 Their rotation is starting to come into focus for the 0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:29.440 next year and maybe the next couple of years. 0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:34.639 So I like this. Chandler Rome du Yeah, go ahead. 0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:36.040 No, I was just gonna say that I think the 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:38.640 Blue Jays. I was just commenting on the Astros. Blue 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:42.160 Jay side of this is massive. I really like Spence Araghetty. 0:03:42.200 --> 0:03:45.960 I know it hasn't gone as well for the entire year, 0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:48.840 but to have a picture that you have three more 0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:52.640 years of control with, I love this. This is a 0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:55.880 great haul for the for the Blue Jays from the Astros. 0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:59.480 Yeah, and also also Raghetty has turned into a breaking 0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:01.160 ball pitcher. You know they have that's a break them 0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:07.400 all pitcher already on this staff. You can maybe show Righetty, hey, 0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:10.160 think about this or think about that, and that can 0:04:10.200 --> 0:04:11.920 also be a win for them. 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:14.120 The Astros also do not have a great farm system, 0:04:14.200 --> 0:04:16.440 so they have to do deals like this, they have 0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:20.240 to take guys from their big league roster in order 0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:23.640 to talk teams into trades, or much more so than 0:04:24.160 --> 0:04:25.920 it's the team we've been talking about. On the other 0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:28.880 side of that, Milwaukee can talk prospects all day. The 0:04:28.920 --> 0:04:31.400 Astros can't do that. They don't have a ton of 0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:34.800 high end prospects that are available or even mid range prospects. Honestly, 0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:36.760 in a trade like this, Jandler Romes told us that 0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:38.400 all year that it was going to be difficult for 0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:40.840 them to pull off deals. To me, this is a 0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:43.520 great acquisition for them. Of course, it's a win. Now, 0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:45.400 this is what we're talking about. Hey, this a Renald 0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:47.239 You're gonna give up years of a pitcher. Some people 0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:50.080 would think that's stupid. Let's see how the Astros do 0:04:50.200 --> 0:04:53.880 in an American league that is looking much weaker than 0:04:53.920 --> 0:04:55.279 it hasn't passed again. 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:57.800 This has turned around in the last two weeks because 0:04:57.839 --> 0:04:59.080 the Astros were out of it, and then all of 0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:01.599 a sudden, the Rangers and not to win any games. 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:04.840 And now here we go the asker's acquiring. 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:08.800 Did you see last thing? What crats here muted? What 0:05:08.880 --> 0:05:09.400 were you saying? 0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:14.440 My new lock is the Askers are going to acquire 0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:16.720 a pitcher because they got rid of one. You can't. 0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:18.840 They didn't have a lot of pitching depth. They need 0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:21.360 another one. I get it, he had the foot thing, 0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:24.320 but they're getting somebody. 0:05:27.400 --> 0:05:30.360 Well, the selloff continues. The Mets do deal away Clay 0:05:30.360 --> 0:05:34.800 Holmes and Tyrone Taylor, who's been smoking hot lately at 0:05:34.839 --> 0:05:38.640 the dish, and they get the number two overall prospect 0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:41.840 according to at least some publications for the Chicago Cubs 0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:43.760 on the other end of this one. But let's first 0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:47.440 cover the major league side of this. Are things starting 0:05:47.440 --> 0:05:50.719 to round into form for Chicago. They get Tyrone Taylor 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:54.120 for some outfield depth, and Clay Holmes enters the rotation 0:05:54.360 --> 0:05:55.560 for this team. 0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:58.320 Worst Taylor going to play? That's my first question. 0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:01.560 Well, bench, I mean, but but depth. 0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:04.599 I mean, they have halps Azuki. 0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:08.280 And p Tyron Taylor is a good defender. 0:06:08.279 --> 0:06:09.600 He could come and I guess they would use him 0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:11.560 as a defensive replacement for sale Suzuki. 0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:14.039 Yeah, oh for sure. 0:06:14.279 --> 0:06:17.680 But Clay Holmes fits perfectly for this. And you know, 0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:20.080 Clay Holmes is a perfect fit. And then we can pitch 0:06:20.720 --> 0:06:22.600 start if they need him to pitch in the bullpen, 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:26.279 and listen, I just saw Craig Council, uh this weekend, 0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:30.680 and uh, he said, we don't have a bullpen roles. 0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:33.280 It's all about pockets and where we can best use pockets. 0:06:33.279 --> 0:06:35.520 So they don't have a closer play. Hoolmes closed for 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:36.640 a while. Let's not forget. 0:06:39.040 --> 0:06:41.840 You're saying in the postseason if he shifts that. 0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:44.440 I'm just saying, yeah, he has closed in the past. 0:06:45.080 --> 0:06:48.440 Well. The other thing was Clay Holmes. His he signed 0:06:48.440 --> 0:06:51.960 with the Mets before last season, right, and last year 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:53.880 sounds right. 0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:57.479 Right, yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:06:56.560 --> 0:06:59.360 Okay, and then he's gonna add two years ago. 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:02.600 But okay, yeah, twenty five twenty six is this two 0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:05.080 year deal, and he is a player option for next year. 0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:07.960 Which he's going to decline as long as he gets 0:07:07.960 --> 0:07:10.440 back on the mound and he's healthy. Okay, he was 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:12.520 really good at the start of last year, had a 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:14.880 little bit of fade going on, which is understandable. You're 0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:16.760 a reliever for years and then all of a sudden 0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:21.000 you're getting a starter's workload this time around. He hasn't 0:07:21.000 --> 0:07:24.080 pitched for a good chunk of the year. You perhaps 0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:27.360 don't have to worry about the arm wearing down. Clay 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:31.280 Holmes could start one of your first few playoff. 0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:35.680 Games, right, Yes, I love this trade. 0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:38.920 Because Justin Steele's not starting a playoff game for you. Nope, 0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:40.920 Kevin Gossman should start a playoff game for you. 0:07:41.440 --> 0:07:41.680 Yep. 0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:48.240 Edward Cabre maybe but not backed yet. Well, there's a 0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:50.120 lot of that going on right now. They're waiting for 0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:53.160 some guys to come back, right. 0:07:54.680 --> 0:08:00.000 So who's this could bump out? Then? Who's bumping because 0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:04.880 you have Boyd, you have Shota, you have Gosman, you 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:08.240 have homes and Edward Cabrera is coming back. I mean, 0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:10.720 you can't say Holmes isn't coming back or is coming 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:13.440 back and Cabrera is not coming back. Holmes hasn't even 0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:14.840 pitched in the big leagues yet. 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:17.880 Since he returned. Right, He had a minor league start 0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:21.360 the other day. Also, David Peterson has pitched pretty well 0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:27.720 for this team. Here's the point, there's options. Yep, the 0:08:27.760 --> 0:08:31.960 Cubs should not have to go bullpenning through October. If 0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:35.839 they make a run. We feel like we've got names now, right, 0:08:35.920 --> 0:08:40.480 This was what they needed. Today's episode is sponsored by 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:43.240 the ASPCA pet Health Insurance Program. Kratz. 0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:46.480 We love our pups, we do, and I can't put 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:47.480 Bella in a bubble. 0:08:47.880 --> 0:08:48.800 So you know what I'll do. 0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:51.240 I'll do the next best thing for her. 0:08:51.400 --> 0:08:55.720 That's right.

At the start of 0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:45.199 the year, You're like, well, those two should pitch in 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:49.040 October for them, Well, Horton went down, Steel hasn't come 0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:53.000 back yet, so now you rework it. Yeah, Boyd and Monaga, 0:09:54.800 --> 0:10:03.360 Gossman and Clay Holmes. Yeah, maybe that's that's a good 0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:06.959 list now that you're putting together. Are you guys feeling 0:10:08.240 --> 0:10:10.440 somewhat satisfied with what the Cubs stayed on. 0:10:10.720 --> 0:10:11.600 I think they be nice. 0:10:11.720 --> 0:10:14.719 I like the moves they've made. I think this is good. 0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:19.959 They they greatly, they greatly improve their starting rotation often 0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:23.120 I mean Homes and Goldsman right away. Boom boom. I 0:10:23.160 --> 0:10:26.240 mean pretty good, really good. The reason I say Clay 0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:28.360 Holmes to the bullpen is you name the names, right. 0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:33.880 Boyd showed a Gosman and then they could they could 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:37.520 bump Clay Homes possibly to the bullpen, Ray and Colin 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:40.080 Ray and Asa too. They could use a swingman depending 0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:40.920 on how the games go. 0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:41.240 Right. 0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:44.600 So that's why I like this trade from a Cub standpoint. 0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:45.640 They can pick and choose the true and. 0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:48.319 They want to do and this one, I mean, we're 0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:51.080 not go ahead, no. 0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:52.559 No, just the best nine innings that you can put 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:55.520 out there. And I think I think that was the 0:10:55.760 --> 0:10:59.800 intrigue and value from Clay Holmes because he's gonna put 0:10:59.800 --> 0:11:02.880 He's going to have that flexibility, Asad has that flexibility. 0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:06.920 Colin Ray has had that flexibility in his career. Just 0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:09.560 get the best nine innings and go out and try 0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:12.440 to out defense the other team because they have a 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:17.920 really really good defense too. I think. Uh. 0:11:19.000 --> 0:11:20.839 I think one interesting thing is does this mean to 0:11:20.840 --> 0:11:21.400 read Denvers? 0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:26.600 Is he going to the Cubs? 0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:31.040 He apologized to you, well, yes, to me and to 0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:32.640 a lot of people. It's easier to do it on 0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:35.959 social media. It accomplishes that instead of him personally calling everyone, 0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:38.240 but yes, Kratz, I don't know if you caught it, 0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:41.400 and you're the mediator here when a J and I battle, 0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:44.400 but the Cubs are not getting me. 0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:47.120 Sure's still an hour left? 0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:51.760 One nothing still one nothing, so one nothing. 0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:53.439 I did not fall for that crap. 0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:55.360 You did fall for it, You and. 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:55.839 I did it. 0:11:56.760 --> 0:11:59.959 I did not. I actually kind of trashed that per 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:02.360 and then you guys gave me apologize him, and I 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:04.640 was like, I think he's fucking wrong. 0:12:05.040 --> 0:12:05.640 He's wrong. 0:12:06.559 --> 0:12:07.800 Sorry, no offense to the guy. 0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:09.880 Again, I don't even know what. 0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:16.400 Okay, sorry, dude, we're wrong. It happens. I'm not blaming him. 0:12:16.720 --> 0:12:19.280 All that happened two hours ago was me saying I'm 0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:22.360 not saying Tach matches on the Cubs, but. 0:12:22.240 --> 0:12:28.199 By the way they did, and they gave up Moses Byteros, 0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:30.920 who they say is a catcher, but the Cubs clearly 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:32.040 didn't think he was a catcher. 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:34.360 I think they just gave up on him as a catcher. 0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:36.200 I think that's what they just told us. No, the 0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:39.440 Cubs did, I'm saying, oh yeah, Moises Spellosteros was a 0:12:39.559 --> 0:12:43.200 pretty big deal hitting prospect. It's not like he's gotten 0:12:43.200 --> 0:12:44.520 a ton of time in the big leagues yet, and 0:12:44.559 --> 0:12:45.880 then they're moving him on to the Angels. 0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:46.000 Now. 0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:49.960 Zephyr John has I'm sure years of control, right, He's 0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:52.000 probably got three four years left. Mark been able to 0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:54.880 keep up with everything. Yeah, Mark McGuire's kid. But Zephyr 0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:57.640 John and the bullpen, the Cubs have added arms. You'll 0:12:57.679 --> 0:13:04.600 see in October major league side of this, Yankees trade 0:13:05.120 --> 0:13:09.920 Elliot Ramos. So they pick up Ramos and Luis Garcia 0:13:10.800 --> 0:13:15.120 for an offense that frankly needed help. We don't know 0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:19.440 what the timetable is officially for Aaron Judge. You would 0:13:19.480 --> 0:13:21.200 hope that he's going to come back at some point. 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:24.440 You have to get there too. They really struggled to 0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:28.760 score runs since he went down to the surprise of No. One. 0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:30.959 These are two bats that can really help you in 0:13:31.000 --> 0:13:34.360 a hurry. Thoughts on what's going down here for the 0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:40.000 Yankees right now with a focus on offense krats, I mean, I. 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.960 Think you're getting the best available. I think they went 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:45.240 out and got two dudes that hit the ball hard. 0:13:45.600 --> 0:13:48.480 They don't really look at anything extra in the profile 0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:51.480 of a hitter. They want the dudes that hit the 0:13:51.559 --> 0:13:55.320 ball the hardest, and I think they they think and 0:13:55.400 --> 0:14:00.600 I would agree Elio Ramos probably is going to really 0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:04.880 succeed from leaving San Francisco. You're talking about somebody that 0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:08.080 was an All Star, somebody that it's a tough place 0:14:08.120 --> 0:14:11.440 to hit. Nobody's gonna deny it, and if you pick 0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:14.280 it up, you get a little bit of control. It's 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:18.319 not a major marquee name. But the reality is, I 0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:20.360 don't think anybody thinks the Yankees are gonna do anything 0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:23.360 if Aaron Judge doesn't come back. So when he does 0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:28.040 come back with Elliet Ramos in there, is he a 0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:31.360 platoon advantage. Yeah, but you don't have to put Jason 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:34.840 Dominguez in there hitting right handed, which he has struggled. 0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:36.920 He's been up a little bit, but you have a 0:14:36.960 --> 0:14:41.720 lot of It gives your lineup a lot more length, 0:14:42.040 --> 0:14:44.560 especially with the different platoon advantages that they try to 0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:45.800 that they try to have. 0:14:46.600 --> 0:14:48.960 It is a good point. AJ whenever you see a 0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:52.800 Yankees acquisition, I go right to Statcast to the Baseball 0:14:52.840 --> 0:14:55.240 Savant page, and I know that the top half of 0:14:55.280 --> 0:14:58.040 the page, which is the one that has exiblow barrel percentage, 0:14:58.040 --> 0:15:01.160 hard hit percentage, they haven't type. They very specific type. 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:03.760 You better hit the crap out of the ball or 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.640 they're not as interested. And these two guys that they 0:15:06.680 --> 0:15:10.160 picked up certainly hit the snot out of the baseball. 0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:15.080 Ramos and Luis Garcia this year for sure, and both 0:15:15.080 --> 0:15:17.480 of them obviously, I mean Garcia is on another level 0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:20.360 right now and what he's doing, but Ramos still, you know, 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:22.640 four to twenty four slug He's coming out of San 0:15:22.640 --> 0:15:25.440 Francisco and going to the Yankees. Now, he's usually enough 0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:28.320 tick there and then for Garcia. I mean, he's just 0:15:28.320 --> 0:15:31.160 been one of the best hitters in baseball. So if 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:35.800 this is it for the Yankees, should their fans be satisfied. 0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:45.880 They want to catch her? Yes, yes, yes, that's. 0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:48.040 A big offensive improvement. These two guys, I agreed, Yes, 0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:50.840 are serious impact players. 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:53.480 They're never going to get a catcher. They were never 0:15:53.560 --> 0:15:56.200 unless it was an Adelie Rushman. I'm telling you what 0:15:56.240 --> 0:16:01.640 it looks for value, and I think I think it 0:16:02.480 --> 0:16:04.680 you picked up two guys that do hit the snot 0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:06.920 out of the ball. You're just not going to get 0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:09.040 a lot of zone discipline. You're not going to get 0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:11.200 a lot of great at bats, which you know what, 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:14.120 if you hit the ball hard, nobody cares about if 0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:16.840 it was the first pitch or the fifth pitch. And 0:16:17.200 --> 0:16:20.760 so they added that I don't think it was realistic, 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:22.600 and maybe we'll find out later, but I don't think 0:16:22.640 --> 0:16:25.320 it was realistic that they were really truly going to 0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:29.560 go after a catcher outside of an Adelie Rutchman, outside 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:35.720 of a super offensive type of catcher that, like you know, 0:16:35.760 --> 0:16:38.120 it doesn't bring any defense. I just I have a 0:16:38.120 --> 0:16:39.800 hard time believing they would have go away from. 0:16:39.680 --> 0:16:49.080 Allso okay, well, their division has been crazy active the 0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:52.080 American League East, So I have another one for you, 0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:55.720 as the Red Sox have caught up significantly over the 0:16:55.800 --> 0:17:00.480 last month and change. This is a trade. It stands 0:17:00.480 --> 0:17:04.080 out to meet names known reliever Eric Miller. He's done 0:17:04.080 --> 0:17:05.840 a nice job with the Giants. 0:17:05.359 --> 0:17:07.880 Moving over to Boston. Barcelo Meyer though, Marcel. 0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:13.960 Up on the side, yeah. 0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:13.760 Quick because remember him? Him? 0:17:13.800 --> 0:17:16.360 And uh Roman Anthony? Remember him? 0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:18.200 Who Roman Anthony? 0:17:18.240 --> 0:17:20.560 And uh? I was thinking more Campbell, the guy in 0:17:20.800 --> 0:17:23.520 Christian Campbell. Yeah, we're supposed to be like the next 0:17:23.560 --> 0:17:27.480 three prize prospects. And now Anthony's heard Campbell's and triple 0:17:27.520 --> 0:17:32.000 A and Meyer's a giant surprising. See this How fast 0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:34.960 prospects we always talk about the crowds is how fast 0:17:35.000 --> 0:17:36.960 prospects can become suspects and be gone. 0:17:37.359 --> 0:17:38.720 Eric Miller's good that wait wait. 0:17:38.640 --> 0:17:42.000 Wait wait wait. Marcel Meyer was supposed to be one one, 0:17:42.960 --> 0:17:45.080 but because the other teams ahead of him said no, 0:17:45.200 --> 0:17:47.840 we want to save some money, we're not going. Marcelo 0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:49.960 won one and the Red Sox, because I worked for 0:17:50.040 --> 0:17:53.239 him that time, they were like, oh my gosh, we 0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:56.880 can't believe he fell to us at four now he's 0:17:56.920 --> 0:17:59.400 on to his second team right now. I think it's unfair, 0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:02.359 but it is what it is. 0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:06.880 Yeah. But also, they just landed a guy who's going 0:18:06.920 --> 0:18:09.040 to pitch in big moments if this team makes the 0:18:09.040 --> 0:18:12.840 postseason in October, a left handed reliever who's been great 0:18:13.920 --> 0:18:16.040 and he's under control for like five years. 0:18:16.240 --> 0:18:20.560 Yes, what does all in look like?
