So, Joe, today, we're 0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:55.160 gonna run a little five by five. We're gonna go back. 0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:57.480 We did Points League last week. We've done six by six, 0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:00.000 We've we've run all these different simulations. But now it's 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.880 time to get back to basics for everybody one last time. 0:03:03.280 --> 0:03:05.880 And just as you are approaching these real drafts coming 0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:07.200 up this weekend, I'm sure you've had a bunch of 0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:10.080 drafts already. What's the big thing that you've noticed in 0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:13.080 terms of either guys climbing up drafts or guys falling 0:03:13.120 --> 0:03:15.320 in terms of value. What's the biggest trend that you've 0:03:15.320 --> 0:03:16.600 noticed over the last week or two. 0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:22.440 I think the biggest trend I've noticed is, you know, 0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:25.040 some of these guys I got signed late really started 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:28.440 getting boosted up. So we've seen Chris Bryant really climbing drafts. 0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:30.760 You know, we've seen some of these guys also that 0:03:30.800 --> 0:03:33.240 have gotten injured lately, like Louis Castillo, that are probably 0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:36.040 gonna fall. Chris Sale plummeted like a rock, obviously for 0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:39.080 good reason. And then you're gonna notice some of these 0:03:39.080 --> 0:03:41.280 guys who are getting a little bit of helium late. 0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:46.280 Mitch Keller the shortstop from Houston, Blake and on a 0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:50.000 thing right now. But excuse me. You know these guys 0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:54.720 would get some helium and getting drafted earlier and earlier, 0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:58.160 because you know, as the talk gets there, people get 0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:01.000 more excited. Right, You're like, have to get him, right, 0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:03.200 and so it's like I gotta go beat everybody else 0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:04.880 in my draft, and they're just gonna get snatched up. 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:10.520 Earlier and earlier. I've been lucky enough to to get 0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:12.760 you know, at least some of these guys like Alejandro 0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:16.919 Kirk and things like that near the end rounds of 0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:22.400 some best balls lately, but I had not had the 0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:24.719 chance to take them in any of the kind of 0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:27.080 standard five by fives. Yet I've been I've been outreached. 0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:32.200 While we've noticed that Joe Adele stock going up, we've 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:34.800 noticed we were talking about just the other day, well 0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:36.400 should I were talking about that one. We talked about 0:04:36.440 --> 0:04:39.280 the Bobby Wood junior stock soaring. It was already at 0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:41.440 a good price to start. Now it's like, yo, you 0:04:41.440 --> 0:04:43.440 got to pay the premium now to get him. And 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:46.040 we've seen guys have great springs and then kind of 0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.320 follow their face in April. So we'll see if some 0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:52.240 of those hot springs carry over, and hopefully they do 0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:54.800 for some of this young talent in the major leagues today. 0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:57.520 Once again, five by five that's what we're gonna be doing. 0:04:57.560 --> 0:04:59.960 I'm gonna go from the one spot and you're gonna 0:04:59.960 --> 0:05:02.680 go from the twelve spot here and just to you know, 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:04.800 kind of map it out for everybody, it's the standard 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:06.599 five by five. So we've got batting average in there, 0:05:07.279 --> 0:05:10.080 saves wins, you know, your typical five y five which 0:05:10.080 --> 0:05:13.080 you got here. And also we're gonna have the corner 0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:15.400 spots back, so we're gonna bring that back today. With 0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:17.960 the middle infield spots, we're gonna have five active outfielders. 0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.080 We're gonna do some nine open pitcher spots, so we're 0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:22.840 gonna leave things open in philosophy here. If people want 0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:25.040 to go heavy closers, they can. If people want to 0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:27.200 go heavy starting pitching, they can. So we're gonna leave 0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:30.960 that open. No mandatory RP spots today for this draft. 0:05:31.000 --> 0:05:33.480 And we're not gonna do bench either. You guys know 0:05:33.480 --> 0:05:35.040 what to do with the bench. You take your shots. 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:37.760 And the guys that we've been recommending now, I've been 0:05:37.800 --> 0:05:40.960 going Juan Soto at the top whenever I can, but 0:05:41.000 --> 0:05:44.400 for today, just for today, I'm gonna go ahead. I'm 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:46.600 gonna listen to the Draft Wizard, and I'm gonna take 0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:48.960 Trey Turner and We're gonna see how things go here. 0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:51.919 So I'm officially on the clock starting things off. So 0:05:52.000 --> 0:05:54.159 I will take Turner at the one. I took the 0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:56.600 top player. I got the big check out the guns 0:05:57.320 --> 0:05:59.479 from the draft Wizard, which is always a good sign, 0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:02.440 I think, And we continue on Black Guaro Junior go 0:06:02.520 --> 0:06:05.839 second than Juan Soto, Jose Ramirez, Garrett Cole, Boba Schett, 0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:10.360 Bryce Harper, Mookie Bets, Freddie Freeman, Corbyn Burns, Shoheo Atani 0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:12.599 and then Joe Bond is up with a twelfth pick 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:15.400 and the turn at two. So Joe, what are you 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:16.040 looking at here? 0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:21.600 So I really like some Kyle Talker here. Get a 0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:23.880 little bit of speed. The batting average is going to 0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:26.400 be pretty nice. Home runs. You know you're gonna be 0:06:26.400 --> 0:06:31.480 there too, good good, uh good, good all around player here. 0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:33.920 And I really like Trout too. But I still am 0:06:34.040 --> 0:06:35.640 super worried that you can stay healthy of. 0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:37.400 Andkudi is still there too, Joe. 0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:41.039 Yeah, you know, with him, with him not probably playing 0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:43.200 the whole first month, I'm gonna hold off on that one. 0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:45.480 And I know I'm not going to get him back, 0:06:45.520 --> 0:06:48.880 but I'm going to take him. And then on the 0:06:48.920 --> 0:06:51.720 backside here, I really want one of these elite pictures 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:53.640 here because I know they're just not coming back to me. 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:57.440 So I'm looking at the pictures here and to where 0:06:57.560 --> 0:06:59.680 you know, it's both guys that are that are pretty 0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:02.200 you know, they can be injury risks here, but I'm 0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:03.840 going to go with Jake de Gram. You know, he's 0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:08.240 really showed this spring, and you know he's just one 0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:10.600 of the elite, So I like starting off that way. 0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:13.400 So you're willing to take the shot on de Gram 0:07:13.400 --> 0:07:17.440 here despite last year's struggles over Scherzer, who a little 0:07:17.440 --> 0:07:20.160 bit of durability issue last year, but overall much better 0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:21.680 durability the last few years. 0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:24.960 Yeah, I mean Schuzers has some you know, some neck 0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:27.720 issues here off and on too, so he's not totally 0:07:27.760 --> 0:07:29.600 out of the woods. You know, he's he's an older 0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:33.920 pitcher also, so not I for one know as as 0:07:33.960 --> 0:07:37.440 somebody's got neck issues, right, they they can come and 0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:38.559 ruin you pretty quick. 0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:41.520 So us old guys know, they know what happened all right. 0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:44.480 Going through the rest of the draft here after de Gram, 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:47.280 we got Mike trout En Devor's at two four Acuna 0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:50.440 goes than two five Max Scherzer, Walker, Buehler, Woodroff. The 0:07:50.480 --> 0:07:52.640 pitching run happened, Louis Robert didn't make it to me, 0:07:53.000 --> 0:07:56.840 but Chiato Albi's tatis I wanted Albe's that did not happen. 0:07:56.840 --> 0:07:58.800 So I'm gonna go ahead with the five active outfielders. 0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:00.600 Make sure I grab at least one one I like 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:03.040 right here. So Jordan Alvarez is gonna make it to 0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:04.880 my team. So starting off with the power guy and 0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:09.000 then the speed guy with Trey Turner. Now I'm gonna 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:12.920 shift gears to the pitching market here. This is tricky. 0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:16.240 Shane Bieber is kind of that top lift here. I 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:19.080 prefer Bieber over Wheeler over Urius. I don't love the 0:08:19.120 --> 0:08:22.040 win totals here, so I could go there, or I 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:25.360 could continue to build the offense, which is also something 0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:29.000 that I'm strongly considering. I don't love first base. I 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:32.000 love the power of Matt Olsen there. He is very 0:08:32.000 --> 0:08:34.080 appealing to me in this spot. So what I'm gonna 0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:36.040 do is, I'm gonna go ahead. I'm gonna draft Matt Olsen. 0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:37.920 I'm gonna wait on pitching and see if I can 0:08:37.960 --> 0:08:40.160 make this pitching work for me. Because it was a 0:08:40.200 --> 0:08:42.200 huge run there in the second round. Rather than buy 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:44.320 into it, I'm gonna wait and see if I can 0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:45.760 double up in the next two We'll see if that 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.640 strategy pays off. We'll find out. Stay tuned for what 0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:51.199 right here on the Mock Draft Show, Just kidding, no commercial. 0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:54.479 So after Matt Olson goes to me, you have Tioscarrnandez, 0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:58.120 Shane Bieber, Zach Wheeler, Aaron Judge, Aaron Nola, everyone named Aaron, 0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:01.080 then Starling Marte Julio. You're Robbie Ray at the three 0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:04.319 h nine, three tens, Ander Bogart's three eleven South Perez 0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:05.880 Joe Bond with the three twelve. 0:09:06.960 --> 0:09:10.080 Yeah, so a guy that I'm looking at here, and 0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:14.959 it's more positional depth here. I kinda I kind of 0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:18.400 want to grab a short and a third basement here. 0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:20.680 I know it's a little early, but I tend to 0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:26.880 not like the drop off at those two positions. You know, 0:09:27.040 --> 0:09:31.560 I I my my rankings have Tim Anderson higher. I 0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:34.640 think because of batting average, but I think overall, with 0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:37.839 the stats and stuff, I'm gonna go Trevor Story and 0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:43.840 then over on third base side here. You know, I 0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:47.920 really like Chris Bryan's landing spot. But I can't. I 0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:49.480 can't do it over Austin Riley. 0:09:49.520 --> 0:09:51.400 Well, he does have that position flexibility, you know. I 0:09:51.440 --> 0:09:53.360 just took him in the last draft we had, and 0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:55.240 I got to tell you, when when you have that 0:09:55.280 --> 0:09:58.679 flexibility with Bryant, you really are allowing the draft to 0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:00.440 come to you after that. So I don't hate this 0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:00.880 pick here. 0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:05.480 That that is, that is a good point. I was not. 0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:07.079 Trying to talk in. I don't want to coerce you, Joe, 0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:09.440 but I do believe that there's merit to that, and 0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:11.440 I was able to see it play out firsthand last time. 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:14.360 Yeah, and you know what, I have done it in 0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:18.120 drafts already. I have taken him over over Riley. But 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:21.079 uh here, I think I'm just gonna take Riley and 0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:24.920 we'll see what happens. Right, We'll see what the tools suggest. 0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:25.960 So let's let's see. 0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:28.520 I like Austin Riley pick. I would take Austin Riley 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:29.200 over him. 0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:31.480 Currently he's got first eligibility. 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:33.959 Well, you know it depends on the league format. 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:36.040 Yeah, so I'm gonna move him to third just for 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:37.360 I think that. 0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:40.360 Would be a very smart move. Austin Riley selected a 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:42.880 four ones. The rest of the fourth round Cedric Mullens, 0:10:42.920 --> 0:10:47.560 Lindor Marcus Ime and Tim Anderson, Liam Hendrix Castillanos. Nice 0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:51.040 pick up there for seven for eight Wander Franco Whitt, Murrayfield, 0:10:51.080 --> 0:10:54.640 Josh Hater. So the closers go Byron Buxton goes four eleven. 0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:57.440 So my evil plan worked somehow. I ended up with 0:10:57.520 --> 0:11:01.720 Lucas Giolito. I like you, Joe Happy right here, just 0:11:01.760 --> 0:11:04.320 exactly who I wanted to come back to me. It did. 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:08.439 Now I could take his batter, his rotation made here, 0:11:08.520 --> 0:11:11.240 lance Lynn, I could take Max Freed, Sandy al Contra, 0:11:11.280 --> 0:11:13.480 Freddy Parolta. I got lots of choices here on the 0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:18.360 pitching side, I've already got the first base situation handled there. 0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:21.280 So I think I'm gonna pass on gold Schmidt. I'm 0:11:21.280 --> 0:11:22.800 just gonna take the guy that I believe in the most, 0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:24.400 and he's gonna get a ton of wins this year. 0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:28.640 It's my dude. It's Freddy p Freddy Peralta, So Gilido 0:11:28.679 --> 0:11:32.079 and Peralta. I'm good with this man. I will go 0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:35.840 to war with these two. I got lucky, perhaps, but 0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:38.319 I'm very happy with how this worked out. I took 0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:40.439 the chance, and sometimes you're good getting in on the run, 0:11:40.480 --> 0:11:42.760 and sometimes when you see everybody take a picture in 0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:45.000 that second round, it's good to wait because chances are 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:47.640 there not gonna double up again as you go through. 0:11:47.720 --> 0:11:51.600 After Sandy al Contra, Pete A, Lonzo Goldschmidt, Nolan Aronato 0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:54.439 at five to five, five to six, Eloja Men is 0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:57.600 great pick up there, Corey Seeger, Kevin Gossman could tell Marte, 0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:01.280 George Springer, Alex Bregman eight value at five eleven. That 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:03.080 was a guy was going in the early second round 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:06.040 last year, Joe Bond for five twelve and six to one. 0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:09.480 Yeah, So you know what, I really want one of 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:12.440 these top closers this year, and I'm gonna go with 0:12:13.880 --> 0:12:16.040 Oh where do you go? I'm gonna run out of time, 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:23.720 go with Iglesias. And I know I want one safe 0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:26.920 guy in a saves only format for sure. So I'm 0:12:26.960 --> 0:12:31.400 gonna take my stab there. And then I know it's 0:12:31.400 --> 0:12:34.000 suggesting a bunch of pictures for me here, but I 0:12:34.040 --> 0:12:39.600 also like, I also like taking Tyler O'Neill also got 0:12:39.600 --> 0:12:42.439 some speed, got some pop, So I'm gonna go Tyler O'Neill. 0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:45.320 All right, Tyler O'Neal is somebody I was considering there, 0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:46.760 but I was like, you know, I gotta get my 0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:47.400 two pictures. 0:12:47.440 --> 0:12:48.000 Well it gets me. 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:48.320 I know. 0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:50.920 Now I've got three guys. They're not like elite steel guys, 0:12:50.920 --> 0:12:53.320 but story Tucker and O'Neill like I'm gonna sprinkle in 0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:55.320 the saves because I missed on obviously, the Jay Ram 0:12:55.360 --> 0:12:57.680 and the Turner like you got this makes it so 0:12:57.720 --> 0:12:59.719 I don't have to go maybe possibly draft like a 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:01.960 like a Miles straw Later who kind of is a 0:13:02.000 --> 0:13:04.160 negative and a ton of other categories. But we'll see 0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:06.160 I've also done that too. Even getting a bunch of 0:13:06.240 --> 0:13:07.600 these guys just to pay over. 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:09.839 The top, there's lots of different approaches. That's why we're 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:13.480 doing this to show everybody. A Rosa Reina Altuve, Jore Polanco, 0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:16.440 Chris Bryant doesn't make it to me than Jose Abrau, 0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:19.880 j Trol Muto, Charlie Morton, Lance Lynn will Smith, not 0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:21.800 the one who's doing the slap and the one who's 0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:24.840 doing the pitching the catching. Rather excuse me for the 0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:28.000 Dodgers six to eleven Jose Barrios, which brings me up 0:13:28.080 --> 0:13:32.400 to six twelve looking around here at the board. Max 0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:34.600 Fried another really good pitcher still out there. He is 0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:37.160 very intriguing to me right now. I do think I 0:13:37.160 --> 0:13:39.360 want a little bit more power. That's what I'm looking 0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:41.119 for right now. So I'm gonna tak J. D. Martinez 0:13:41.120 --> 0:13:43.480 with one of these picks. Again, this is five active outfielders, 0:13:43.800 --> 0:13:48.920 so outfielders go pretty crazy here. Brian Reynolds another one 0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:51.240 that I really want to take here. But do I 0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:52.559 want to wait on more pitching? 0:13:52.720 --> 0:13:53.040 Oh? 0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:56.000 Max Fried has been so good. This is tough here. 0:13:56.080 --> 0:13:59.760 I think I'm going to continue just to just dominating 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:02.040 the hold. So give me another one here. I'm gonna 0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:03.920 go ahead and take Brian Reynolds. I just can't say 0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:07.240 no to Brian Reynolds. I'll make up. I got a plan. 0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:10.559 We'll see what happened, very very good. No, I'm with you, mane. 0:14:10.760 --> 0:14:13.280 I'm I'm all for kind of hanging back on pitching. 0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:14.720 That's a lot of guys in the middle who are 0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:19.200 gonna who are gonna hit, and especially with in middle infield, 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:21.120 you know, for me, like, that's where I want to 0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:23.760 go and get some of these guys shot. And what 0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:25.680 pick are we on? We're on pick eighty four. 0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:30.160 We're in the seventh. Yeah, so uh, Max Freed, Logan Webb, Hove, Bayez, 0:14:30.280 --> 0:14:34.160 Brandon lou at seven five, then Frandamil Reyes, uh the 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:37.360 for Animal, Luis Castillo at seven, then eight Chris Sale. 0:14:37.400 --> 0:14:40.760 Then we have Manda sy Muskgrove, Musgrove and Mantass back 0:14:40.760 --> 0:14:43.400 to back. That's gotta hurt. Musgrove was another guy was 0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:45.640 strongly considering there. So Joe Bond, you're on the clock 0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:47.760 for seven to twelve and then the first pick in 0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:48.320 eight oh one. 0:14:48.680 --> 0:14:50.640 Yeah, so again, I kinda wanna I kind of want 0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:53.520 to shure up that infield here. I'm not so worried 0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:55.360 about first base once you get past those first couple 0:14:55.400 --> 0:14:57.040 of guys are all kind of the same in my opinion, 0:14:57.120 --> 0:15:00.360 for like super deep in So I'm already to pass 0:15:00.400 --> 0:15:02.880 all those guys. So I'm gonna take Jonathan India and 0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:06.280 sure up my infield here. You know, I've got everything 0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:09.160 but first base, So I'm happy there. And then let's 0:15:09.160 --> 0:15:12.800 see here, it recommends dal and sees justin Verlander. Where 0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:13.800 do I got Lander? 0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:16.600 I'm a fan of Lander, I. 0:15:16.520 --> 0:15:19.000 Do I am, But you know I've already taken the grum. 0:15:19.120 --> 0:15:20.440 I don't know if I could do both of those 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:22.560 guys well, in for a penny, in for a pound, baby, 0:15:22.640 --> 0:15:23.960 let's go. 0:15:24.200 --> 0:15:28.040 I'm all in. I'm all in with the with the 0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:32.040 old injured guys now, yeah, because I'm out loving the 0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:34.880 outfielders right now. I mean it's recommending Cody Bell took 0:15:34.920 --> 0:15:40.760 the ball. Let's yeah, you know what, Let's do it, man, 0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:43.480 let's go, let's go Lander. I like it all right. 0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:44.360 I love that. 0:15:45.240 --> 0:15:45.960 Let's get crazy. 0:15:46.120 --> 0:15:47.840 Did you get a little emoji on that one from 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:50.200 the Draft Wizard? I feel like that's an emoji worthy pick. 0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:51.400 I don't know, I. 0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:53.360 Didn't see anything, but I do have it on like 0:15:53.440 --> 0:15:55.880 a kind of split screen. So I don't know if I'll. 0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:57.880 Talk to the development team because that serves some kind 0:15:57.880 --> 0:16:00.320 of emoji. Stanton on your crew, he was at eight 0:16:00.360 --> 0:16:03.320 oh three Max Moncto four classe A Presley. So my 0:16:03.320 --> 0:16:05.840 two closers I was looking at are gone. Dylan C's gone, 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:08.920 Edwin Diaz gone, like you is empty, eight nine, Carlos 0:16:08.960 --> 0:16:13.040 Correa gone. Then Rendon Chapman back up to me. Let's 0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:15.400 see what I got my bag of tricks? Uh, definitely 0:16:15.440 --> 0:16:17.320 a couple of pictures here I still like, so I 0:16:17.320 --> 0:16:20.840 feel pretty good about this one looking at some of 0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:24.800 the available hitters though. That's the thing right now. It's 0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:28.360 a little trickier in that infield as I've got twenty 0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:30.560 something seconds here, So I think what I'm gonna do 0:16:30.600 --> 0:16:33.560 first is take the picture. This is really tough. Trevor Rodgers, 0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:36.560 you Darvish, and Alec Manola. I like all these guys. 0:16:38.120 --> 0:16:40.640 I just I'm a little worried about the age of you. Darvish. 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:42.160 I know he had the injury last year. So I'm 0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:44.080 gonna take Trevor Rodgers because I'm just a huge fan 0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:47.600 of him, and I'm gonna go ahead and consider doubling 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:49.720 up here. I just want to look at who else 0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:52.760 is available in that middle infield, because, as Joe alluded earlier, 0:16:53.120 --> 0:16:55.000 that can kind of get oo oh. I know what 0:16:55.040 --> 0:16:58.200 I'm gonna do. I'm gonna be super trendy. Here we go. 0:16:58.280 --> 0:16:59.880 You're ready for this. At the nine to oh one, 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:02.520 you ready, Bobby Witch Junior, Let's go. 0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:03.240 He did it. 0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:06.480 Let's do it nine to one. Let's go all right, 0:17:06.560 --> 0:17:09.240 Let's see how this goes. Christian Yelich goes right after me. 0:17:09.720 --> 0:17:12.000 I can tell your disdain for me, and it's it's 0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:16.199 making my heart smile. Yelich, then you Darvish at nine 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:19.199 oh three, Jazz Chisholm nine oh four, Kenley Jansen nine 0:17:19.200 --> 0:17:22.439 oh five, Blake Trining his hardest nine oh six, Carlos 0:17:22.520 --> 0:17:25.840 rodon at nine oh seven, McClanahan Manoa, who's the other 0:17:25.880 --> 0:17:30.080 guy was strongly considering there? Uh then Mitch Hanneger, Kyle Schwarber. 0:17:30.440 --> 0:17:33.080 Those are two outfielders you could have lived with. Joe Bond, 0:17:33.080 --> 0:17:34.600 it's back to you for nine twelve. 0:17:34.840 --> 0:17:36.240 Yeah, and now I feel it's kind of where I'm 0:17:36.280 --> 0:17:41.040 looking right now, Bellinger sitting on top. I still can't 0:17:41.040 --> 0:17:42.840 do it, man. I've seen clips and just heard a 0:17:42.840 --> 0:17:46.000 lot of analysis from people that he just looks lost 0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:50.240 up there. Still he can't hit. So I'm gonna go 0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:53.960 with Jesse Winker, who's now in Seattle, and you know, 0:17:54.240 --> 0:17:57.240 hopefully he can can still produce out there away from 0:17:57.280 --> 0:18:01.399 from Cincinnati to give me my third out, and then 0:18:01.480 --> 0:18:05.199 let's just see what's kind of out there. Let's just 0:18:05.200 --> 0:18:07.359 take a game value pick I got I got something. 0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:08.919 There we go, There we go. 0:18:09.920 --> 0:18:11.720 That's a good value. I think people were down on 0:18:11.760 --> 0:18:14.280 him with the move to Seattle, maybe the power goes 0:18:14.320 --> 0:18:16.239 down a little bit, but I think Winkers a very 0:18:16.240 --> 0:18:17.240 good hitter regardless. 0:18:17.359 --> 0:18:19.960 Yeah, so I'm kind of looking at first base here. 0:18:20.400 --> 0:18:22.200 I don't want to get too far done to listen, 0:18:22.320 --> 0:18:24.520 I am a huge fan of Jared Walsh this year, 0:18:24.600 --> 0:18:26.840 so you hold a trigger on that one. 0:18:27.480 --> 0:18:29.640 I love that pick, dude. I'm a huge Yared Walsh 0:18:29.720 --> 0:18:34.240 guy was last year also, so very nice work. I've 0:18:34.280 --> 0:18:36.440 definitely got some addressing to do with the third base 0:18:36.440 --> 0:18:38.639 side myself. It's on point here trying to get some 0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:41.520 corner help. Bellinger does go in this round, though, So 0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:43.359 right after you took Walsh, there's a little run for 0:18:43.480 --> 0:18:48.280 you Crone Mountcastle, Bellinger, Lemayhew. So there goes first base. 0:18:48.960 --> 0:18:51.280 Tommy Edmund goes at ten oh six, Blake Snell ten 0:18:51.320 --> 0:18:54.960 O seven, Reese Hoskins ten o eight, Grondal Romano, Framber 0:18:55.119 --> 0:18:57.879 Valdez and then meet at the ten twelve, eleven to 0:18:57.880 --> 0:19:01.439 one turn. So right now, looking at my team, got Olsen, 0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:05.600 Turner with Alvarez, Martinez Reynolds. That pitching is Rogers, Peralta 0:19:05.640 --> 0:19:10.000 and Giolito. So what do I want to draft next? 0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:14.119 This is tricky here. The draft wizard right now is 0:19:14.160 --> 0:19:16.920 telling me Clayton Kershaw is the top lift. I don't 0:19:16.960 --> 0:19:19.200 know how comfortable I am with Clayton Kershaw. I gotta 0:19:19.240 --> 0:19:21.120 be honest with you, this is kind of a tricky one. 0:19:21.119 --> 0:19:23.840 But that Dodger team is so damn good, Joe. I mean, 0:19:23.880 --> 0:19:26.560 I think I gotta take the shot here, so I'm 0:19:26.600 --> 0:19:28.800 gonna go ahead and do it. I don't love it. 0:19:29.080 --> 0:19:36.720 I really don't the day what's happening? Yeah, I mean, 0:19:36.800 --> 0:19:39.480 but I get it. I totally get I gotta take 0:19:39.520 --> 0:19:41.440 one closer here too, so I'll go ahead and take 0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:45.560 gayegos and just get some saves. Also right now I'm 0:19:45.560 --> 0:19:48.440 not happy. Well, well you know what, dude, I'm looking 0:19:48.480 --> 0:19:50.000 at the board right now, and none of these hitters 0:19:50.040 --> 0:19:51.840 for me move the needle. So it's like what is 0:19:52.160 --> 0:19:54.800 And whenever you get I always say, build roster strength, 0:19:55.320 --> 0:19:57.280 then worry about what you need. If I can't build 0:19:57.359 --> 0:19:59.720 roster strength with anybody, I want to pivot to something 0:19:59.720 --> 0:20:02.240 that's gonna help me, that's gonna, you know, help me 0:20:02.280 --> 0:20:06.240 across and contribute. So after eleven O two cruise, the 0:20:06.280 --> 0:20:10.240 Nelson Cruise, of course, uh Torres var Show Joey Vado, Tyler, 0:20:10.280 --> 0:20:14.160 Molly Nadiavaldi, Jack Flaherty at eleven o eight other Will 0:20:14.160 --> 0:20:18.000 Smith from Atlanta, the pitcher also not the slapper eleven 0:20:18.000 --> 0:20:21.240 oh nine, than Chris Bassett eleven ten, Josh Belled eleven eleven, 0:20:21.320 --> 0:20:23.080 Joe Bonn make a wish it's eleven twelve. 0:20:23.920 --> 0:20:26.600 Uh so I actually do want to get another closer. 0:20:26.640 --> 0:20:30.480 I want to build a strength there could go between 0:20:30.480 --> 0:20:32.360 a couple of different guys here, I, like Malayan said, 0:20:32.680 --> 0:20:35.200 is getting a bunch of bunch of chances there, like 0:20:35.280 --> 0:20:40.040 Rogers from Minnesota. But I'm gonna go uh Corey Nivel. 0:20:40.240 --> 0:20:43.359 I don't ever know how to pronounce it. I like him. Yeah, 0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:45.000 that's what I always say. I don't even know if 0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:46.520 that's actually how you say it, but I do it. It 0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:50.199 is how I that was a renal apparently, but right, 0:20:51.000 --> 0:20:52.920 it's not a reach, guys, it's not a reach. You 0:20:52.960 --> 0:20:56.199 gotta build a relief pitching. Is this a reach for 0:20:56.200 --> 0:21:00.720 for the draft software, which which I understand, go in 0:21:00.720 --> 0:21:04.399 here I could build another uh starter, But I'm gonna 0:21:04.440 --> 0:21:08.600 pass here, So I'm gonna go click on Oh can 0:21:08.640 --> 0:21:11.280 I just click on hitters? Here is the awesome meadows. 0:21:11.359 --> 0:21:15.719 So no, that's not the right list. Let's see, Joey Gallop, 0:21:15.920 --> 0:21:18.240 I can't do it in an average leaves. Guryel is 0:21:18.280 --> 0:21:23.879 not not powerful enough all over the board here. Oh, 0:21:23.920 --> 0:21:26.160 it's given me a really crummy list of just. 0:21:27.560 --> 0:21:30.520 You got fifteen seconds, buddy, Yeah. 0:21:30.000 --> 0:21:32.800 All right, let's see here, you know what, let's let's 0:21:32.880 --> 0:21:34.800 let's go catch her. I'm gonna do Wilson Contrerez. 0:21:34.840 --> 0:21:37.000 I kind of like it, ah, I kind of like 0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:38.440 that again outside the box. 0:21:38.480 --> 0:21:40.640 I like I wasn't I wasn't expecting him to sit 0:21:40.720 --> 0:21:46.320 there in round what it's twelve twelve, yest, Yeah it is. 0:21:46.359 --> 0:21:49.440 The first pick of the twelfth round was controllers. Then 0:21:49.480 --> 0:21:52.520 after that you've got Dansby Swanson, you and Mancatta, Mark 0:21:52.600 --> 0:21:56.879 Mullans and Willia doms Uh. Then Pablo Lopez who was 0:21:56.880 --> 0:22:01.600 on MI you there, Corona Worth Meadows, Gresham, Chris Taylor, 0:22:01.680 --> 0:22:05.240 Joey Gallo and then to me, all right, could certainly 0:22:05.359 --> 0:22:07.560 use some more outfield, can use more pitching. I think 0:22:07.560 --> 0:22:08.719 that's what we could all use. 0:22:08.800 --> 0:22:08.960 Right. 0:22:09.119 --> 0:22:12.679 We can't get enough of either of those things, all right. 0:22:12.840 --> 0:22:16.280 I think here, looking at the starting pitchers going there, 0:22:17.040 --> 0:22:19.520 I think this guy's gonna get traded, and I think 0:22:19.520 --> 0:22:21.120 he's gonna get traded to a better team. So I'm 0:22:21.119 --> 0:22:23.520 gonna go ahead and take Sean and I here continue 0:22:23.520 --> 0:22:25.239 to build that rotation a little bit because I do 0:22:25.320 --> 0:22:28.040 think I got a thumbs up value pick. Thanks draft Wizard. 0:22:28.400 --> 0:22:31.720 I appreciate your approval of my life. Then we have 0:22:31.840 --> 0:22:34.399 looking at catchers. I'm not a fan of the catchers here. 0:22:35.520 --> 0:22:37.359 There is a power guy in the outfield I do like. 0:22:37.440 --> 0:22:40.040 I wonder if it's too soon. I'm gonna go ahead 0:22:40.040 --> 0:22:42.359 and take Justin Turner coming off a really good season. 0:22:42.560 --> 0:22:44.520 I know he's a huge risk too, but I need 0:22:44.560 --> 0:22:47.120 a third baseman. So let's go ahead and just take 0:22:47.160 --> 0:22:49.760 this and try to up the power. Oh, I got 0:22:49.800 --> 0:22:53.640 another thumbs up, Draft Wizard. Stop it. Draft Wizards totally 0:22:53.680 --> 0:22:56.120 slide into my DMS after this draft, trying to ask 0:22:56.160 --> 0:22:58.480 me the drinks. All right, let's go to the next one. 0:22:58.600 --> 0:23:02.280 After Justin Turner goes Miles Straw we were talking about 0:23:02.280 --> 0:23:05.959 before thirteen oh two. Then we have I have a 0:23:05.960 --> 0:23:10.800 sale Garcia, Ian Anderson, Matt Chapman, Marcelozho, Michael Confordo who 0:23:10.840 --> 0:23:12.480 doesn't have a team, but he's on a team here. 0:23:12.600 --> 0:23:15.720 Poor Michael Confordo, Sonny Great thirteen oh eight, Shane Boz, 0:23:16.000 --> 0:23:20.239 Anthony Rizzo, Jerry Kellenick. Michael Confordo's becoming the Baker Mayfield here. 0:23:20.280 --> 0:23:22.159 He's just the guy without a place. I feel like, 0:23:22.760 --> 0:23:24.639 let's go to you, Joe Bond for the pick in 0:23:24.720 --> 0:23:26.800 the thirteenth to close it out and to start out 0:23:26.840 --> 0:23:27.360 the fourteenth. 0:23:27.720 --> 0:23:29.960 Yeah, so I'm looking at the top of the board 0:23:29.960 --> 0:23:34.160 here and I totally agree with it. Edwardro Rodriguez. I mean, 0:23:36.680 --> 0:23:38.360 you know, he came off that that he came off 0:23:38.400 --> 0:23:40.119 that bad year where you know, he took the year 0:23:40.160 --> 0:23:42.040 off with COVID and just couldn't really get things rolling 0:23:42.119 --> 0:23:44.080 that next last year. But I think he's going to 0:23:44.160 --> 0:23:46.720 really bounce back this year. Wins maybe not there, but 0:23:46.920 --> 0:23:49.680 I like the cave potential. So I'm doing that one, 0:23:49.720 --> 0:23:52.760 and then I probably want to attack either corner, middle, 0:23:52.800 --> 0:23:58.960 infielder or outfielder. I'm looking at like a Verdrugo, I got. 0:23:58.760 --> 0:24:03.400 A steal, right, nice, Johnny Wards. 0:24:03.280 --> 0:24:07.520 Is Yeah, Lotus Gariella, I mean just kind of safe 0:24:07.520 --> 0:24:10.560 a batting average, you know, I know I have taken 0:24:10.560 --> 0:24:12.479 some hit on batting average here. So he could be 0:24:12.640 --> 0:24:15.440 a pretty a pretty safe pick for me. Uh, I 0:24:15.600 --> 0:24:17.320 just kind of want to take a quick glance at 0:24:17.320 --> 0:24:19.240 the rest of the outfielders. I got Renfro, which is 0:24:19.240 --> 0:24:22.800 a big power bat, but drain on batting average. Verdrigo 0:24:22.880 --> 0:24:25.000 is kind of meant to me. So Laire is a 0:24:25.000 --> 0:24:27.119 big power bat, but I'm not sure I'm ready for 0:24:27.160 --> 0:24:30.720 that yet. Yeah, I think I'm gonna go Gurriel and 0:24:31.320 --> 0:24:32.240 let's see what happens. 0:24:32.680 --> 0:24:35.400 See what happened. I love THEEZ pick, yet I got another. 0:24:36.240 --> 0:24:38.520 All right, Oh my goodness, look at us. The Draft 0:24:38.520 --> 0:24:41.360 Wizard finally has come to come to love and respect 0:24:41.400 --> 0:24:44.280 us after all of these years of mocking me. After 0:24:44.400 --> 0:24:46.360 you go ahead and take your guys. Zach Gallon goes 0:24:46.400 --> 0:24:48.600 at fourteen oh two. It's a nice value there. Ranger 0:24:48.640 --> 0:24:52.480 Swore is at fourteen oh three. Oh, Michael Kopek, screw you. 0:24:52.760 --> 0:24:55.919 Draft Wizard fourteen oh four takes my dude, takes my 0:24:56.000 --> 0:24:59.320 other dude. Two after Garcia, Clevenger goes and Stevenson the 0:24:59.359 --> 0:25:03.919 other Garcia from Houston goes. Bory Solaire Saya Suzuki, Ryan McMahon, 0:25:04.080 --> 0:25:06.159 I'm pissed off right now, Trap Wizard and I are 0:25:06.200 --> 0:25:08.719 totally breaking up. I'm just not gonna hang out anymore. 0:25:09.080 --> 0:25:10.919 I'm gonna go ahead and take another closer here with 0:25:11.480 --> 0:25:15.720 Taylor Rogers because i just need one here looking around 0:25:16.320 --> 0:25:19.160 like fou I know, I'm like, he's still there. I'm 0:25:19.200 --> 0:25:20.960 just gonna go ahead and do it because I'm just 0:25:20.960 --> 0:25:24.199 gonna lock in one more now it's looking do I 0:25:24.200 --> 0:25:26.239 want to keep going corner stuff? I could do that. 0:25:26.400 --> 0:25:29.920 There's Donaldson, There's Cabrian Hayes. Those kind of guys are available. 0:25:29.960 --> 0:25:32.200 I'm just pissed off. I wanted one of those other 0:25:32.280 --> 0:25:35.000 guys to make it back to me with the starting 0:25:35.040 --> 0:25:40.560 pitcher RP guys. I'm just pissed off right now. I 0:25:40.600 --> 0:25:43.520 like Logan Gilbert quite a bit. Patrick Sandoval is another 0:25:43.560 --> 0:25:46.680 one that's really interesting. Everybody I've had on the show 0:25:46.720 --> 0:25:49.879 seems to absolutely love Patrick Sandoval. So I think that 0:25:49.960 --> 0:25:53.160 Angels team is gonna do pretty well. So I want 0:25:53.200 --> 0:25:55.800 to take that whip, you know what, I'm gonna look 0:25:55.840 --> 0:25:57.800 at the all. I'm gonna go one more time and 0:25:57.840 --> 0:26:01.040 just see what the suggested are. Because suggesting a doulas 0:26:01.040 --> 0:26:02.960 Garcia to me, which scares the heck out of me, 0:26:02.960 --> 0:26:04.399 because of the batting average. I don't know if I 0:26:04.400 --> 0:26:06.679 could do that, Joe, I really don't. I think I'm 0:26:06.680 --> 0:26:08.120 gonna have to pass on that. I think I'm gonna 0:26:08.119 --> 0:26:10.320 go ahead and I'm gonna take Sandoval, and it's probably 0:26:10.320 --> 0:26:12.720 gonna give me a reach alert, would be my guess. 0:26:12.800 --> 0:26:14.720 But oh no, no, reach alert. No. 0:26:14.880 --> 0:26:16.760 I think that's I think that's pretty spot on. I 0:26:16.760 --> 0:26:19.080 think I think he's in range for this, for this 0:26:19.200 --> 0:26:20.439 territory here that we're in. 0:26:21.080 --> 0:26:23.720 There's a couple other hitters that I'm entertaining, but again, 0:26:23.760 --> 0:26:27.000 none of them really to me think game changing kind 0:26:27.040 --> 0:26:28.720 of guys. I think that's where I'm at. So, after 0:26:28.760 --> 0:26:31.000 I took Sandoval at fifteen oh one, the rest of 0:26:31.000 --> 0:26:34.360 the fifteenth round is Waynwright, Donaldson, who I was considering, Carlson, 0:26:34.400 --> 0:26:38.680 Logan Gilbert, who I was strongly considering, Jake McGee, Cabrian Hayes, 0:26:38.720 --> 0:26:41.560 ty Franz Stroman Verdugo, who you were just talking about 0:26:41.560 --> 0:26:45.560 two rounds ago, Herman Marquez A fifteen eleven. Now, Joe, 0:26:45.560 --> 0:26:47.320 you're up for fifteen twelve and six oh one. 0:26:48.359 --> 0:26:53.040 I am super mad that France got taken. That was 0:26:53.240 --> 0:26:59.159 not part of the plan. Okay, time to pivot. So 0:26:59.400 --> 0:27:02.960 let's do let's do the next best thing. I guess 0:27:02.960 --> 0:27:06.679 I suppose in there, and I'm gonna go Trey Mancini 0:27:06.840 --> 0:27:09.880 to get me my corner infielder. And I also think 0:27:09.880 --> 0:27:13.000 he's gonna get some outfield I mean, yeah, you know 0:27:13.119 --> 0:27:16.160 all the ool stuff back here. That's cool. I also 0:27:16.200 --> 0:27:18.320 got another steal. Let's be in a row, guys. Just 0:27:18.400 --> 0:27:24.760 let you know I'm not bragging at all. No, And 0:27:24.800 --> 0:27:29.199 then and then at starting pitching, starting to get a 0:27:29.200 --> 0:27:31.840 little you know, getting that territory where they're all just 0:27:31.920 --> 0:27:34.600 kind of like they're just guys in They're gonna have 0:27:34.680 --> 0:27:37.240 good days, bad days. It's just sort of what you 0:27:37.520 --> 0:27:42.760 like and what you need. I actually think I'm gonna 0:27:42.800 --> 0:27:46.160 pass and let's see what outfielder has here. We still 0:27:46.160 --> 0:27:48.439 got a dorles guy. Is I cannot do it. I 0:27:48.560 --> 0:27:50.359 just cannot tried. 0:27:50.480 --> 0:27:52.280 I tried to consider it, man, it really does you 0:27:52.320 --> 0:27:52.560 know what? 0:27:52.640 --> 0:27:55.800 I actually want to get a little bit more speed 0:27:55.840 --> 0:27:59.520 here because I have passed on a bunch, and I'm 0:27:59.560 --> 0:28:01.720 gonna go Bobby Grossman to kind of give me a 0:28:01.720 --> 0:28:05.000 power speak guy to fill it out here. Value pick 0:28:05.040 --> 0:28:05.640 all right. 0:28:06.240 --> 0:28:06.719 I like that. 0:28:06.840 --> 0:28:09.280 I think Robert Grossman's a great pick. Scott Bogman would 0:28:09.280 --> 0:28:10.760 love that pick. I can tell you right now. He's 0:28:10.800 --> 0:28:13.520 been a big Grossman supporter. All right, I'm glad I 0:28:13.560 --> 0:28:15.280 are locking that closer. When I did too, I feel 0:28:15.320 --> 0:28:17.760 much better about it because now Deval went off the 0:28:17.760 --> 0:28:20.240 board too. So Barlow went off the board at sixteen 0:28:20.240 --> 0:28:24.760 oh two Guriel, then Eddie Rosario Renfro again, super pissed 0:28:24.760 --> 0:28:27.800 about that, Super pissed about Luis Evreno. Also, Mike, you 0:28:27.920 --> 0:28:32.760 gone Ben Attendi at sixteen oh seven Rogers Reu Adolas Garcia, 0:28:32.800 --> 0:28:34.800 thank you. I don't have to make that choice, and 0:28:34.880 --> 0:28:37.560 Camillo Deval. So this is what I love using the 0:28:37.600 --> 0:28:40.080 draft whizzard because it's a challenge, and this is what 0:28:40.120 --> 0:28:42.680 you need to have when you're trying to prepare yourself 0:28:42.880 --> 0:28:45.640 for your drafts. You want to be challenged. I'm gonna 0:28:45.640 --> 0:28:47.080 go ahead and take some cheap steals here with a 0:28:47.160 --> 0:28:47.680 keel bado. 0:28:48.440 --> 0:28:49.440 I'm getna, but do it up. 0:28:49.760 --> 0:28:49.880 Uh. 0:28:50.000 --> 0:28:52.160 And then I'm gonna go ahead and uh, I'm gonna 0:28:52.200 --> 0:28:54.080 take Oh, I got a value pick. Oh look I'm 0:28:54.760 --> 0:28:57.040 sliding up the board here, catching up to the value 0:28:57.040 --> 0:29:00.320 pick master. Here see what I could do I want 0:29:00.320 --> 0:29:02.320 to take one of Welsh's dudes. I think I do. 0:29:02.680 --> 0:29:04.400 I think I could use a little bit more stolen 0:29:04.400 --> 0:29:06.960 bases perhaps, So I'm gonna take the mid Rosario also, 0:29:07.480 --> 0:29:10.440 So give me Rosario. Maybe I get that twenty upside. 0:29:10.480 --> 0:29:12.840 Maybe I just end up with twelve to fifteen. I'll 0:29:12.840 --> 0:29:15.520 take that shot there. So in terms of the roster 0:29:15.680 --> 0:29:18.280 right now, now, I just need to fill that corner spot, 0:29:18.320 --> 0:29:21.320 the outfield and utility. I'm so mad that Hunter Renfro 0:29:21.480 --> 0:29:23.600 was gone, so mad because I couldn't believe he was 0:29:23.640 --> 0:29:26.400 still on that board. Tybert Ruiz goes at seventeen to 0:29:26.400 --> 0:29:29.920 two to Reschooble seventeen oh three Cinderguard. Kirolova was the 0:29:29.920 --> 0:29:31.480 other guy I really wanted to take there, but I 0:29:31.520 --> 0:29:33.800 went Steals. I sold out to the man, and I'm 0:29:33.800 --> 0:29:37.480 so upset. Michael Brantley, Dominic Smith, Luke Boyite, Craig Kimbrol, 0:29:37.560 --> 0:29:41.440 Lance McCullers, Jose Yourcuidi and then seventeen twelve and eighteen 0:29:41.480 --> 0:29:42.719 oh one is up to you. Joe. 0:29:44.000 --> 0:29:48.400 Oh, I'll tell you what, man, middle infield and middle 0:29:48.440 --> 0:29:53.920 infield has has really thinned out here. I just realized 0:29:53.920 --> 0:29:57.920 you might have to reach just slightly on some guys here, 0:29:57.960 --> 0:30:00.000 but there is one at the very top who I 0:30:00.040 --> 0:30:02.080 who I still really like. The power is not really there, 0:30:02.080 --> 0:30:04.040 but the run potential is there, and the batting average 0:30:04.080 --> 0:30:06.680 is gonna be there too, and is Jeans Sigura gonna 0:30:06.680 --> 0:30:10.640 give me my middle infield and then go ahead do 0:30:10.680 --> 0:30:12.240 it again. You're gonna call me a homer, but I'm 0:30:12.240 --> 0:30:14.280 gonna pick John means, look. 0:30:14.120 --> 0:30:16.400 Strikeouts, really, eighteen you gotta take. 0:30:16.440 --> 0:30:18.760 The strikeouts aren't there, but man, the ratio is gonna 0:30:18.800 --> 0:30:20.640 be there. You know, they push out those fences. I 0:30:20.640 --> 0:30:22.560 think it's gonna limit its home runs, just make him 0:30:22.560 --> 0:30:23.040 even better. 0:30:24.200 --> 0:30:26.320 I agree. I think that's an excellent pick there. So 0:30:26.840 --> 0:30:29.120 nice work there, buddy, Nice work. All right, Let's see 0:30:29.120 --> 0:30:31.760 what the draft board looks like as we continue on here. 0:30:31.800 --> 0:30:34.680 After Joe takes John means, you got David Bedner going next, 0:30:34.880 --> 0:30:39.080 Mitch Garver. Nice pick there at eighteen oh three, Loroman Leriano, 0:30:39.760 --> 0:30:45.680 Charlie Blackman, Louis Urias Descalfani, Escobar, Trevor Bauer. Gotta love 0:30:45.720 --> 0:30:49.080 the Trevor Bower pick, ge Gerrinendez, Colton Wong, and then 0:30:49.120 --> 0:30:52.360 it's back up to me. So I want to pile 0:30:52.400 --> 0:30:55.600 on here with Saves. I think I might. I'm one 0:30:55.640 --> 0:30:58.760 of these guys who somehow, for some reason buying into Soto, 0:30:59.040 --> 0:31:01.440 Like I just feel like, yeah, like, I think that's 0:31:01.480 --> 0:31:04.000 just the dude. It's gonna give me some strikeouts there, 0:31:04.000 --> 0:31:06.920 probably gonna be the greatest selection for some of my 0:31:06.960 --> 0:31:10.080 whippin era. I got the reach alert. That's fine. I 0:31:10.160 --> 0:31:13.560 just want to save. So just selling out there, all right, 0:31:13.680 --> 0:31:16.240 Let's take a look aj Pollock. Am I ready to 0:31:16.280 --> 0:31:20.680 do that to myself? I don't know about that. Looking 0:31:20.720 --> 0:31:22.440 at what I need on my roster right now, I 0:31:22.480 --> 0:31:25.800 do have a corner spot open. All the guys I 0:31:25.840 --> 0:31:27.880 had were pitchers. So now I'm really up against it. 0:31:27.960 --> 0:31:33.240 I'm really up against it here, Joe. I think once again, 0:31:33.280 --> 0:31:34.959 you know, maybe I could get a little bit of 0:31:35.000 --> 0:31:37.840 everything here with Ian Happ. Maybe he gets me eight steals, 0:31:37.880 --> 0:31:40.200 maybe he gets me twenty five bombs. I'll go ahead 0:31:40.200 --> 0:31:42.520 and take him with the other pick that works for me. 0:31:42.760 --> 0:31:44.560 I'll go ahead and do that. Oh I got the steal, 0:31:44.640 --> 0:31:47.920 not one, not two, but three claps. Thank you, Thank 0:31:47.960 --> 0:31:50.480 you very much, Draft Wizard. Now we're friends again. Let's 0:31:50.520 --> 0:31:52.920 continue on and see what's going on. Here with the Wizard. 0:31:53.040 --> 0:31:56.040 After I took Ian happ At nineteen oh one, nineteen 0:31:56.040 --> 0:31:58.760 oh two, Carlos Carrasco, then Brandon Belt. I just can't 0:31:58.760 --> 0:32:01.920 take Brandon Belt. I can't do it. Tanner, how Jordan Montgomery, 0:32:02.000 --> 0:32:05.280 nice pick up there, Uhanneo Suarez nineteen oh six, Berndon Crawford. 0:32:05.280 --> 0:32:07.200 I just didn't really have the space. I didn't like 0:32:07.280 --> 0:32:12.040 him as utility Randall Gritchick, Adley Rutchman, Adam Duval, Joe Barlow, 0:32:12.160 --> 0:32:16.040 Joe bond up At nineteen twelve and twenty oh one. 0:32:16.400 --> 0:32:18.920 Yeah, so I think I'm at a double top some 0:32:18.960 --> 0:32:21.560 picture here, save my utility player. There's not a ton 0:32:21.600 --> 0:32:24.440 of guys here that I like in the hitting department 0:32:24.520 --> 0:32:30.560 right now. I like Alex Wood. He's a good, good, safe, 0:32:30.640 --> 0:32:33.840 safe guy there, good ballpark. You know, not a high 0:32:33.920 --> 0:32:36.800 strikeout guy, but you know he's right there averaging nine 0:32:37.280 --> 0:32:40.960 nine per nine. So I'll take Alex Wood and then 0:32:41.760 --> 0:32:44.280 just to kind of see what's out there. I'm just 0:32:44.360 --> 0:32:48.000 curious with the relievers. No, there's no closers I want. 0:32:48.200 --> 0:32:50.000 I'll pass on that. I've got too decent on. So 0:32:50.120 --> 0:32:52.800 I'm gonna just go just hey, just just. 0:32:52.760 --> 0:32:54.520 Gotta look, gotta look. 0:32:56.120 --> 0:32:57.960 So I'm looking at my board here and it might 0:32:58.000 --> 0:33:00.520 be it's not a reach according to the draft the 0:33:00.640 --> 0:33:04.280 draft program here, but I thought it would have been. 0:33:04.440 --> 0:33:07.080 But Joe Ryan is a guy who I'm really excited 0:33:07.120 --> 0:33:09.760 about this year, and I'm going to take him as 0:33:09.800 --> 0:33:11.840 my eighth overall pitcher. 0:33:12.760 --> 0:33:15.160 That was the one guy left that I was really considering. 0:33:15.240 --> 0:33:16.400 But I was like, you know what, I'm gonna take 0:33:16.400 --> 0:33:18.720 the third closer. It's something I rarely do here. I 0:33:18.760 --> 0:33:20.480 don't have the elite guy. So I went ahead and 0:33:20.480 --> 0:33:21.960 I took the guy who I just think the job 0:33:22.040 --> 0:33:22.440 is safe. 0:33:22.760 --> 0:33:23.480 Yeah at the end of the. 0:33:23.520 --> 0:33:26.120 Day, And that's that's what I'm looking at all right. 0:33:26.160 --> 0:33:27.520 So it made it all the way back to me 0:33:27.640 --> 0:33:32.240 before it did Tristan McKenzie at twenty oh two, John Gray, 0:33:32.640 --> 0:33:35.960 you Knowah Schwindell right out from under me. Joe Adele, Oh, 0:33:36.000 --> 0:33:38.719 how did I miss that one? Bad? Joe bad? Joe 0:33:39.080 --> 0:33:43.240 Scopes Ofvally Kendricks, Barnes dawback. Now I'm just miserable because 0:33:43.320 --> 0:33:45.680 Joe Adele was still on the board and I didn't 0:33:45.720 --> 0:33:48.760 take him. How did I miss that before? So hard? 0:33:49.080 --> 0:33:53.920 So hard? Sometimes another power speed guy is still available there. 0:33:53.960 --> 0:33:56.720 He's gonna play, I assume every day in Cincinnati. Tommy Fam. 0:33:56.720 --> 0:33:59.160 That's kind of an interesting one there. That might not 0:33:59.200 --> 0:34:01.840 be the worst pick actually, tell you the truth, strangling 0:34:01.920 --> 0:34:05.240 considering that one. Let's look at the the draft wizard. Yeah, 0:34:05.280 --> 0:34:07.880 little cheap steals, little cheap power. I'm gonna go ahead 0:34:07.880 --> 0:34:12.640 and take Tommy Fam. And then again, just like Joe said, 0:34:12.640 --> 0:34:14.759 you know, you could build steals with a little bit 0:34:14.800 --> 0:34:17.040 of everything. And as much as I can't stand this 0:34:17.080 --> 0:34:21.200 guy from a baseball point of view, look he's a catcher. 0:34:21.320 --> 0:34:23.719 He's gonna hit home runs. I could use some more 0:34:23.719 --> 0:34:26.879 home runs. Go ahead, I'm gonna draft Gary Sanchez. Yeah 0:34:26.880 --> 0:34:29.720 for some just low ass power at catcher. So whatever, 0:34:29.840 --> 0:34:32.080 Gary Sanchez, hit some home runs. Try to catch the 0:34:32.120 --> 0:34:34.400 ball once in a while, all right. So after Gary 0:34:34.440 --> 0:34:38.879 Sanchez goes, uh, you then have Garrett Woodlock at twenty 0:34:38.920 --> 0:34:43.200 one oh two, Tyler Glass now, which again that's a 0:34:43.200 --> 0:34:45.279 waste of a pick this year. He's not gonna pitch. 0:34:45.320 --> 0:34:50.360 Anthony Santander, Alex com Heimerchandelario. Nice pick up there, Austin Hayes, 0:34:50.400 --> 0:34:54.680 Harrison Bader, Andrew Vaughan, cal Quantrill, Nicky Lopez Joe Bond 0:34:54.800 --> 0:34:57.160 up for his last two picks at twenty one twelve 0:34:57.200 --> 0:34:59.440 and twenty two oh one. 0:34:59.680 --> 0:35:02.120 Yeah. Uh, I mean, look, nobody's gonna give me a 0:35:02.120 --> 0:35:04.279 good batting average right now. So I'm just gonna go 0:35:04.360 --> 0:35:07.319 with the most, the most pop potential here, and that 0:35:07.440 --> 0:35:12.160 is gonna be MIGUELSONO as my utility guy. It's gonna 0:35:12.160 --> 0:35:15.200 boost me in in runs, in RB, I in home runs, 0:35:15.239 --> 0:35:20.160 which I which I needed pretty bad. And then it's 0:35:20.200 --> 0:35:22.399 hanging on me here. I can't filter what's going on? 0:35:22.480 --> 0:35:24.200 Oh filter filter? 0:35:24.400 --> 0:35:27.920 No, yeah, there it goes. I see what it did. 0:35:28.680 --> 0:35:30.200 Oh man pitching. 0:35:31.719 --> 0:35:35.640 Uh it's hard in the middle there, I really did. 0:35:35.960 --> 0:35:38.319 I mean obviously I only have one left. I mean, 0:35:39.360 --> 0:35:41.479 you got Steven Mattz, who's this kind of a guy. 0:35:41.600 --> 0:35:47.520 Casey is looking pretty good in spring so far. I 0:35:47.560 --> 0:35:51.640 mean I might go him. See I need I need, 0:35:51.800 --> 0:35:54.600 I know, I need K's let's see a Vetta Gibson 0:35:54.680 --> 0:36:01.279 Corbyn Koochie. Uh yeah, to try my eyes and just 0:36:01.600 --> 0:36:02.640 hope it works out for me. 0:36:04.800 --> 0:36:06.360 You might as well just take a shot on the. 0:36:06.600 --> 0:36:08.640 You know what. He disappeared, So I'm gonna have to 0:36:08.640 --> 0:36:12.320 take Cacucci. I refiltered and he was gone, Cacucci. 0:36:12.560 --> 0:36:15.239 Oh no, Cacucci. It is well, we could say it's 0:36:15.280 --> 0:36:18.000 my I mean, honestly, at the end of the day, statistical. 0:36:17.880 --> 0:36:18.879 Probably not gonna matter. 0:36:21.239 --> 0:36:23.640 You hope, you hope Myce takes a step forward, but 0:36:23.920 --> 0:36:27.320 you never know. Rojas Bailey over another young Twins pitcher 0:36:27.360 --> 0:36:31.560 twenty two O four Zanino, Eliza Diaz A five Darnault. 0:36:31.560 --> 0:36:35.920 Here's the catcher run then Luke Trevino, Vasquez matts, Devin Williams. 0:36:35.960 --> 0:36:39.200 Hazer's Aguilar goes right before me. Oh, I just dug, 0:36:39.280 --> 0:36:44.880 come on, come on, all right, that's to me. Uh so, 0:36:45.000 --> 0:36:46.879 what do you think here? I could take Connor Joe 0:36:47.000 --> 0:36:49.960 or Alec Baum or aj Pollock. What would you do? 0:36:50.160 --> 0:36:53.960 You know those guys is cheap out and take the 0:36:54.000 --> 0:36:56.160 Colorado guy. You hope that Alec Bohm starts. 0:36:56.200 --> 0:37:00.319 I mean, I might take the risk and taken Joe 0:37:00.360 --> 0:37:03.080 and hope that Colorado actually plays the guys they should, 0:37:03.640 --> 0:37:04.239 But I don't know. 0:37:04.320 --> 0:37:06.720 Well, they did deal Tapio, so I think that's helpful. 0:37:06.960 --> 0:37:08.520 That's the way I was leaning. Well, I got a 0:37:08.560 --> 0:37:13.640 B plus I didn't win this draft. Once again this morning, 0:37:15.600 --> 0:37:17.960 eighty seven out of one hundred. I'm a disappointment to 0:37:18.000 --> 0:37:21.120 myself and others, but well done there. Let's look at 0:37:21.120 --> 0:37:26.399 the projected standings here again I'm always the second shoe. 0:37:26.840 --> 0:37:29.360 Let's look and take a look at Joe Bond's draft. 0:37:29.560 --> 0:37:32.399 So Joe Bond is number one overall with that ninety five, 0:37:32.480 --> 0:37:35.280 well done, slow clap for you. I am at number 0:37:35.320 --> 0:37:38.759 five and eighty seven and then not bad. So let's 0:37:38.760 --> 0:37:40.799 take a look at this main page here. When you 0:37:40.800 --> 0:37:43.799 see on the right, you have the draft insights, you 0:37:43.840 --> 0:37:46.759 have your steals, the things you did well. It says 0:37:46.800 --> 0:37:50.600 that Scott Youngson, a fantasy mutant, likes my draft. I 0:37:50.640 --> 0:37:52.840 am a big X Man fan, so that's good. The 0:37:52.880 --> 0:37:55.840 steals for me were Ian happened the nineteenth round and 0:37:55.880 --> 0:37:58.040 Tommy fam in the twentieth, so that was pretty good. 0:37:58.239 --> 0:38:01.040 I reached on Sodo I did. Joe Ryan would probably 0:38:01.040 --> 0:38:02.919 be the other guy that I would have taken there. 0:38:03.480 --> 0:38:06.200 My top players are Trey Turner metals and JD. Martinez. 0:38:06.200 --> 0:38:09.400 It says if you had drafted Starling Marte in a 0:38:09.440 --> 0:38:13.560 first basement later, I'd be significantly higher. Perhaps, but again 0:38:13.600 --> 0:38:17.800 I don't know what Marte is health wise slash ability 0:38:17.840 --> 0:38:19.680 to steal forty bags. Again, I don't know if that's 0:38:19.680 --> 0:38:21.799 gonna happen with the Mets. We shall find out. So 0:38:21.960 --> 0:38:23.680 when you look at the front page here, what does 0:38:23.719 --> 0:38:25.960 it say for you? Who liked your draft the most? 0:38:26.640 --> 0:38:30.480 It says the site projections for a Rodo Champ. Apparently 0:38:30.520 --> 0:38:33.440 my own rankings don't like my own drafts, So that's interesting. 0:38:35.400 --> 0:38:38.520 You think it would, but no. I then said my 0:38:38.600 --> 0:38:43.760 top player Jacob de Gram. Shocker. If I had drafted 0:38:43.840 --> 0:38:47.040 Mike Trout at two dot one and drafted a pitcher later, 0:38:47.280 --> 0:38:49.600 your score would have been significantly higher. 0:38:49.840 --> 0:38:51.080 Oh how much higher could it get? It? 0:38:51.080 --> 0:38:53.919 And although I liked Jacob de Gram, so that's kind 0:38:53.920 --> 0:38:58.319 of strange. Steals were Erod, Guriel and Mancini, which were 0:38:58.320 --> 0:39:00.319 those three in a row that I had? It makes 0:39:00.320 --> 0:39:03.360 perfect sense that I'm seeing that the reach was Cannebel, 0:39:04.239 --> 0:39:06.880 which is what I saw. So that's that's there. And 0:39:06.920 --> 0:39:10.680 it said category categorically good. Your team projected to be 0:39:10.719 --> 0:39:16.160 top four and runs home runs, rbiks and whip So yeah. 0:39:15.800 --> 0:39:17.879 All right. If you click on the expert opinions, it'll 0:39:17.880 --> 0:39:20.560 tell you who else in terms of experts liked your draft, 0:39:20.560 --> 0:39:22.879 give you a thumbs up or thumbs down. Guess who 0:39:22.880 --> 0:39:25.359 gave me a thumbs up? Some guy from Fantasy six 0:39:25.440 --> 0:39:29.560 Pack name Joe Bond. All right, pready for Alta Shu Manila, 0:39:29.640 --> 0:39:32.000 Quio Bidou. He likes all those guys. So this, Joe 0:39:32.000 --> 0:39:34.799 Bond says, And I don't know what happened here. This 0:39:34.840 --> 0:39:36.840 is the first draft I've ever done where Scott Bogman 0:39:37.000 --> 0:39:40.880 doesn't like it. So Scott Bogman is like every single 0:39:40.880 --> 0:39:43.160 one of my drafts. Not only has he turned on me, 0:39:43.239 --> 0:39:46.239 but my colleague Pat fitz Morris has also turned on me. 0:39:46.400 --> 0:39:48.759 So we're gonna have to have a meeting after this 0:39:48.840 --> 0:39:51.040 show with everybody. When it comes to expert opinions, who 0:39:51.120 --> 0:39:53.000 liked your draft and who gave it a thumbs down? 0:39:53.360 --> 0:39:58.440 So obviously the roto Champ guys, Fred Zinky, Nick Mariano, 0:39:58.640 --> 0:40:06.319 Ariel Cohen. That's a good one thumbs down, Joe, Come on, man, 0:40:06.880 --> 0:40:08.080 I gave you a thumbs down. 0:40:08.120 --> 0:40:12.560 Man, I'm just jealous. It's just my jealousy because. 0:40:12.360 --> 0:40:16.799 You beat Chris Clegg Corn Young Chris Ris for US, Yeah, 0:40:17.160 --> 0:40:21.200 Lucas Spence in sports Line. So I mean, some good 0:40:21.280 --> 0:40:23.200 names on both sides like and don't like me. 0:40:23.160 --> 0:40:25.160 So you can't pay attention to mine, Joe, it's just 0:40:25.160 --> 0:40:27.600 because I was I'm just jealous the fact you beat me. 0:40:28.000 --> 0:40:32.960 You just you just did, so you're in the back end. 0:40:33.280 --> 0:40:35.000 I gotta be honest. I mean, let's let's go through 0:40:35.040 --> 0:40:38.040 the teams now. Because you had Wilson Contreras a catcher, 0:40:38.320 --> 0:40:41.840 Miguelson know at first, Jonathan India second, Trevor Story at shortstop, 0:40:41.880 --> 0:40:44.480 Austin Riley at the corner. Then you have Jared Walsh, 0:40:44.640 --> 0:40:48.640 Jean Sigura. In the outfield, you have uh, Kyle Tucker, 0:40:49.120 --> 0:40:52.920 Tyler O'Neill, Jesse Winker, Loris Curiel, Robbie Grossman, Trey Mancini. 0:40:53.000 --> 0:40:54.440 What do you think of the offense you've built here 0:40:54.480 --> 0:40:55.680 in this draft, Joe. 0:40:56.239 --> 0:40:58.440 Yeah, I think I think it's pretty balanced. I'm not 0:40:58.560 --> 0:41:01.720 like top of the top of the board of anything. 0:41:01.760 --> 0:41:04.840 I actually, uh, when I was looking at it during 0:41:04.880 --> 0:41:07.680 the draft, at one point I was like second in average, 0:41:07.719 --> 0:41:11.719 and then I guess I took Miguelson oh and and dropped. Shock. 0:41:12.520 --> 0:41:13.160 What a shock. 0:41:13.760 --> 0:41:15.440 But you know, I'm right in the middle of stolen basis, 0:41:15.440 --> 0:41:17.279 which is something I kind of strive for you know, 0:41:17.400 --> 0:41:20.160 I don't I really don't ever see myself winning that 0:41:20.280 --> 0:41:23.399 category because what you're gonna see is right. So Team 0:41:23.480 --> 0:41:25.520 four is supposed to be the ones winning that category. Well, 0:41:25.600 --> 0:41:27.960 let's look at the where he is normally in all 0:41:27.960 --> 0:41:30.760 the other categories. RBI is in the middle, home runs 0:41:30.800 --> 0:41:34.000 in the middle, and then runs, which you kind of 0:41:34.000 --> 0:41:36.960 expect with stolen bases guy, he's up top, but he's 0:41:37.000 --> 0:41:40.359 like bottom for batting average, So like I would bet 0:41:40.440 --> 0:41:43.799 that his overall hitting categories isn't great. But I you know, 0:41:43.880 --> 0:41:46.560 I'm top three for runs, top four for home runs, 0:41:46.560 --> 0:41:49.040 top four for RBI, and then I'm middle for average 0:41:49.040 --> 0:41:50.759 and stone basis, so it balance is a little bit 0:41:50.800 --> 0:41:56.120 better for me. Uh So I like I like the 0:41:56.320 --> 0:41:58.480 I like the offense, the way that I built it, 0:41:59.320 --> 0:42:01.239 the control. This one was kind of a panic pick 0:42:01.320 --> 0:42:03.239 because of the time it was running down and but 0:42:03.440 --> 0:42:04.680 uh I think it works out. 0:42:04.840 --> 0:42:06.640 But it's a strong power team, and I think at 0:42:06.640 --> 0:42:09.760 the end of the day, if you're gonna sacrifice stolen bases, 0:42:09.840 --> 0:42:12.200 sacrifice it for power. That's what I mean. That's because 0:42:12.239 --> 0:42:14.040 you know, if you get those power guys, it's gonna 0:42:14.120 --> 0:42:16.120 track for runs. And track for RBI. If you're gonna 0:42:16.200 --> 0:42:19.160 if you're gonna pass on the big steal guys, just 0:42:19.200 --> 0:42:22.040 make sure you are crushing the power categories. That's that's 0:42:22.080 --> 0:42:24.520 my take on all this From the pitching staff, Jacob 0:42:24.520 --> 0:42:28.960 de Gram, Rysoglecias, Justin Verlander, Dwardo Rodriguez, John Meads, Corey Kniebel, 0:42:29.719 --> 0:42:33.240 Alex would Joe Ryan and use Kakuchi slash Casey Maes 0:42:33.239 --> 0:42:35.279 will give him a slash theory. So what are your 0:42:35.280 --> 0:42:38.120 feelings about this pitching staff? I mean, clearly d Gram 0:42:38.160 --> 0:42:40.239 and Verlander if they look like they did you know, 0:42:40.280 --> 0:42:44.359 when they're healthy, certain a pretty good staff. But how 0:42:44.360 --> 0:42:46.799 do you feel about the pitching when you're looking back 0:42:46.840 --> 0:42:47.319 at it now? 0:42:48.120 --> 0:42:51.160 Yeah, I mean I think, you know, if we were 0:42:51.280 --> 0:42:53.439 drafting some bench guys, I probably would have gone after 0:42:53.480 --> 0:42:56.400 one more late, closer to kind of give me a 0:42:56.440 --> 0:42:59.759 little bump in saves. So so that's something where I 0:42:59.800 --> 0:43:01.480 think I would have actually improved a little bit on 0:43:01.760 --> 0:43:06.640 because I only took two. But you know, I tried 0:43:06.640 --> 0:43:09.520 to go after guys where, especially early on, I go 0:43:09.560 --> 0:43:13.920 after guys where ratios won't kill me. And that's another 0:43:13.960 --> 0:43:17.120 reason why I've gone after two early early ish save 0:43:17.200 --> 0:43:20.080 guys because later on, like, no matter who you get 0:43:20.160 --> 0:43:22.480 later on in the draft, you know, yes, we're going 0:43:22.560 --> 0:43:25.720 to find the Kevin Gosman's in round eighteen nineteen again 0:43:25.880 --> 0:43:29.320 this year somewhere. But to rely on that is hard. 0:43:29.440 --> 0:43:31.600 So those guys, just like you do in hitting, where 0:43:31.640 --> 0:43:33.560 you take those later guys, they're going to kill you 0:43:33.560 --> 0:43:36.560 in batting average. The later guys for pitching are going 0:43:36.640 --> 0:43:39.200 to kill you in ratios. So I try to build 0:43:39.239 --> 0:43:42.279 that up and get a safe floor for that, which 0:43:42.320 --> 0:43:44.440 is what I did. So I'm fifth in era and 0:43:44.480 --> 0:43:48.520 second in whip, and you know, I always try to 0:43:48.560 --> 0:43:51.640 go after high strikeout guys as much as possible without 0:43:51.760 --> 0:43:57.520 killing the ratios early on. Wins are so unpredictable, you know. Yeah, 0:43:57.680 --> 0:43:58.400 I never pay. 0:43:58.280 --> 0:44:00.439 Attention if I'm behind on wins. That's the one where 0:44:00.440 --> 0:44:02.000 I roll my eyes. I just want to be middle 0:44:02.040 --> 0:44:03.480 of the pack and win. Yeah, that's all I can 0:44:03.520 --> 0:44:05.360 I mean, because it's so arbitrary. 0:44:05.400 --> 0:44:07.640 Maybe if I'm looking at two guys and it's like 0:44:07.640 --> 0:44:10.239 a flip of the coin and one plays for the 0:44:10.320 --> 0:44:13.799 Yankees and one plays for the Orioles, fine, maybe I'll 0:44:13.800 --> 0:44:15.959 take the guy for the Yankees because he's probably gonna 0:44:15.960 --> 0:44:18.120 win a couple of YE games. You know, It's that 0:44:18.239 --> 0:44:20.480 kind of thing. But in the long run, I mean 0:44:20.480 --> 0:44:22.560 that's why I took John Means where I did, because 0:44:23.560 --> 0:44:26.279 his ratios I think are gonna be very good. 0:44:26.800 --> 0:44:30.560 So I agree that certainly can only help him the 0:44:30.640 --> 0:44:33.479 ballpark adjustment. All right, let's run through my team again, 0:44:33.800 --> 0:44:36.800 Joe's thoughts. Since Joe clearly is my daddy in this draft, 0:44:36.800 --> 0:44:39.200 it's more important what he thinks. When I think Gary 0:44:39.239 --> 0:44:41.920 Sanchez a catcher, Matt Olson at first base, Trade Turner 0:44:42.360 --> 0:44:45.799 at second shortstop, Bobby Wit third base, justin Turner, I'm 0:44:45.840 --> 0:44:51.200 investing in good offensive ecosystems, the Braves, the Dodgers. That's 0:44:51.239 --> 0:44:54.080 what I'm trying to do. Then, Connor, Joe Amid Rosario, 0:44:54.600 --> 0:44:58.520 Jordan Alvarez, JD Martinez, Brian Reynolds, Ian Hapakielbado and Tommy 0:44:58.560 --> 0:45:00.480 fam What do you think of the offense here? 0:45:00.560 --> 0:45:00.880 Joe? 0:45:01.640 --> 0:45:04.560 Uh So, I like, I like your speed with Witt 0:45:04.560 --> 0:45:07.400 and Turner. If if Wit really uh you know, shows 0:45:07.480 --> 0:45:09.799 up like I think a lot of people expect, uh, 0:45:09.960 --> 0:45:13.319 You've got some power. I mean, Turner's a power bat. 0:45:13.360 --> 0:45:15.239 Matt Olsen obviously is a power bat. You know you 0:45:15.520 --> 0:45:18.000 took that late late catcher. Sanchez is gonna be a 0:45:18.000 --> 0:45:20.960 batting average game most likely, but yeah, I mean he 0:45:20.960 --> 0:45:25.480 could hit thirty bombs pretty easily. You know, Alvarez, I 0:45:25.520 --> 0:45:28.359 love him. Jad Martinez, my opinion, is a guy who 0:45:28.440 --> 0:45:31.719 I not really sure why he keeps falling to where 0:45:31.719 --> 0:45:33.920 he doesn't I seem to I seem to be, and 0:45:33.960 --> 0:45:34.200 I was like. 0:45:34.200 --> 0:45:35.839 I gotta take him just to price and force. 0:45:35.880 --> 0:45:38.920 Basically I seem to be taking him a lot earlier 0:45:38.960 --> 0:45:41.400 than most. I've got him on a lot of teams, 0:45:41.400 --> 0:45:44.239 so hopefully he works out the back end of your 0:45:44.360 --> 0:45:47.600 your outfield is Yeah. 0:45:46.840 --> 0:45:50.960 It's a little sauce, you could say and hammer my outfield. 0:45:51.000 --> 0:45:55.520 But you know, again, you took them for positional or 0:45:55.520 --> 0:45:58.480 not positional, for categorical need. You know, you got them 0:45:58.520 --> 0:45:59.799 for a little bit of speed, a little bit of 0:45:59.800 --> 0:46:02.480 power or so. I think that's they're they're good picks. 0:46:02.520 --> 0:46:04.719 They're not sexy picks by any means, but you know, 0:46:04.760 --> 0:46:08.480 it's it's it's it's why you took them for a reason, 0:46:08.640 --> 0:46:10.719 and their team fits and sometimes you gotta do. 0:46:10.840 --> 0:46:13.080 They can all be Lord of is Guriel's like every 0:46:13.080 --> 0:46:15.719 pick can be sexy like that, or Robbie Grossman. All right, 0:46:15.760 --> 0:46:17.920 let's let's get your take on the pitching staff here, 0:46:18.000 --> 0:46:23.440 Lucas Gilito, Freddie Peralta, Trevor Rodgers, Kershaw, Manaya, then Patrick Sandoval, 0:46:23.600 --> 0:46:27.920 and I've got three closers theoretically, Diego's, Rogers and Sodo. 0:46:28.080 --> 0:46:29.160 Your thoughts on this staff. 0:46:30.760 --> 0:46:33.560 I I like your let me where did it go? 0:46:33.680 --> 0:46:34.080 There? We go? 0:46:35.520 --> 0:46:37.600 I like your staff. Actually I was really mad you 0:46:37.640 --> 0:46:41.759 took Peralta. That's kinda come back to me. Rogers. I 0:46:41.800 --> 0:46:44.200 think it's gonna it's gonna be really good there as well. 0:46:44.880 --> 0:46:47.879 I like him. Kershaw is the one sort of I'm 0:46:47.880 --> 0:46:50.160 not sure. Oh yeah, I don't know what we think, 0:46:51.760 --> 0:46:53.799 but you know, Manaiya, I agree with you. I think 0:46:53.840 --> 0:46:56.360 Oakland will end up trading him. And then yeah, Diego's 0:46:56.440 --> 0:46:59.160 I was eyeing him, is my second, my second closer. 0:46:59.200 --> 0:47:01.480 You got him as your first, but you know, I 0:47:01.560 --> 0:47:03.680 like him a lot. And then getting you know, Trevor 0:47:03.719 --> 0:47:06.600 Taylor Rogers there as your second closer as well, and 0:47:06.600 --> 0:47:09.880 then Sodo could be if he actually gets all the 0:47:09.920 --> 0:47:12.480 work in Detroit as I kind of think you should 0:47:13.239 --> 0:47:15.520 you know your safe potential there is great with three 0:47:16.080 --> 0:47:18.480 fairly fairly cheap guys. 0:47:19.160 --> 0:47:23.080 Fairly cheap, and again, I don't see the competition coming 0:47:23.120 --> 0:47:25.440 for them, really. I just I feel like that's always 0:47:25.440 --> 0:47:27.879 been my thing. I'm like you the Welsh. All those 0:47:27.880 --> 0:47:29.400 people will say, you know, if you get one of 0:47:29.400 --> 0:47:31.840 those elite closers or two of them, early awesome, and 0:47:31.920 --> 0:47:33.839 if you don't, just let the market come to you. 0:47:33.880 --> 0:47:35.400 Because the worst thing you could do, I feel like, 0:47:35.480 --> 0:47:38.360 is reaching that middle tier of closer where there's some 0:47:38.480 --> 0:47:41.920 uncertainty and then you end up missing on really solid 0:47:41.960 --> 0:47:44.640 outfield bats or really solid corner bats or things like 0:47:44.680 --> 0:47:46.960 that because those guys are harder to find. You can 0:47:47.000 --> 0:47:49.160 always find guys off the waiver wire for saves because 0:47:49.200 --> 0:47:53.400 it's a constant carousel of new characters coming in. Joe Bond, 0:47:54.040 --> 0:47:58.160 this was a fantastic experience. Congratulations on besting me. You 0:47:58.280 --> 0:48:01.320 deserved your a. You got that again.
