Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to Fantasy Pros MLB. This is Leading
Speaker 1: Off Live. It is b Joey, p Joe, Pi Zapio
Speaker 1: with me every day is the Welsh and it's all
Speaker 1: of you, the Peanuts and the cracker Jacks here on
Speaker 1: our twitch, twitch dot tv slash Fantasy Pros or if
Speaker 1: you're watching on demand, our YouTube channel Fantasy Pros MLB Welsh.
Speaker 1: It's another fun day of baseball ahead of us yesterday.
Speaker 1: It was an amazing show. If you missed yesterday, go back
Speaker 1: and watch it. A lot of great conversations, a lot
Speaker 1: of big discussions, a lot of prospect stuff. Today we
Speaker 1: got lots of throw at you, some injuries, of course
Speaker 1: because it's Major League Baseball, and welsh Otani hit his
Speaker 1: seventeenth homer, Mookie Bets hit two, but it wasn't enough
Speaker 1: to beat your Diamondbacks. You gotta be feeling pretty good
Speaker 1: about yesterday's game.
Speaker 2: The Dodgers getting swept by the Angels, love it, and
Speaker 2: then the Diamondbacks pulling down wins. Though that bullpen he
Speaker 2: is a disaster, but we did get goods that Justin Martinez,
Speaker 2: who threw out here on Saturday, might just be coming
Speaker 2: back up here very shortly and not even hitting any
Speaker 2: more rehab stints or maybe there's one more at TRIPAA,
Speaker 2: But looks like he's going to be back sometime very
Speaker 2: early this week and be back to closing games, hopefully
Speaker 2: against the Dodgers. Right, And that Otani bet, by the way,
Speaker 2: is looking pretty good. I'm betting pros that I gave
Speaker 2: you a couple of weeks ago Otani to lead the
Speaker 2: league in homers eight to one at the time. That
Speaker 2: is obviously that's mixed, but that is playing out very
Speaker 2: very well.
Speaker 1: Yeah. It's almost as if like maybe the starting pitching
Speaker 1: problems are catching up to the Los Angeles Dodgers a
Speaker 1: little bit, a little bit. Maybe maybe you can't win
Speaker 1: one hundred and ten games with Landon Knack and Tony
Speaker 1: Gonsolin and all those guys as you're starting pitchers with
Speaker 1: the Tyler glassnow and Blake Snell and all those guys healthy,
Speaker 1: Maybe just maybe so. Look, if you're the Dodgers, you're
Speaker 1: just trying to get to September and October like that's it.
Speaker 1: Just get healthy. You're gonna be in the playoffs most likely,
Speaker 1: although that is a tough division. Man. We were just
Speaker 1: talking about that before the show.
Speaker 2: What do you think is going to like go down?
Speaker 2: What do you think the narrative is going to be.
Speaker 2: So I think it's post All Star break when they
Speaker 2: said they're gonna let if Twani start pitching again. Do
Speaker 2: you think there's gonna be this narrative of like Otani is,
Speaker 2: you know, potentially more injury prone. Do you think the
Speaker 2: pitching is going to take away from the hitting or
Speaker 2: do you think it's going to be where you said
Speaker 2: they just got to get to September. Maybe they just
Speaker 2: got to get to the All Star break where maybe
Speaker 2: glass Down's back with Tani's in the rotation and they're
Speaker 2: just full throttle.
Speaker 1: I don't I think if they're concerned or they're thinking
Speaker 1: that Otani is the guy who's going to get them
Speaker 1: over the hump in the playoffs as the pitcher, then
Speaker 1: they failed. That's that's what I think. I think he's
Speaker 1: a pitcher. He's a great pitcher, but I think to
Speaker 1: put that on him this year in season in such
Speaker 1: a weird way is too much. I think you're probably
Speaker 1: better off with him. You know. Look, I think that's
Speaker 1: also something where how much can you pitch? How deep
Speaker 1: can you pitch into games. And it's also the stress
Speaker 1: of those innings. Those are playoff innings you're talking about.
Speaker 1: Right by the time you get there, what are those
Speaker 1: gonna look like? Those are laborious, A little bit different
Speaker 1: than pitching. You know, it's a mid August day and
Speaker 1: you're pitching against the Cincinnati Red It's a little different
Speaker 1: when you're pitching against the Philadelphia Phillies and the playoffs
Speaker 1: and the Padres or the Mets. So it'll be interesting
Speaker 1: to see how they handle all this. It's uncharted waters.
Speaker 1: We talked about that quite a bit, and I think
Speaker 1: they just desperately need Glassnell and Snell to join Yamamodo
Speaker 1: in that rotation. And if they don't get at least
Speaker 1: one of those two, I think I think that's a problem.
Speaker 1: I think it's problematic. And then you're putting a lot
Speaker 1: on a toy shoulders. But hey, he seems to have
Speaker 1: broad shoulders for all these moments anyway, also broad shouldered
Speaker 1: with a very tiny era. Chris Bubich banked the Giants
Speaker 1: seven innings, five strikeouts. That era is at one four
Speaker 1: to seven. Now, Welsh, I don't think he's gonna pitch
Speaker 1: you a one four to seven Era. But you gotta
Speaker 1: just be astounded with how good the Bubbola has been
Speaker 1: this year. I mean, on a team that has no
Speaker 1: margin for error in terms of their offense has been
Speaker 1: really underperforming this season, Boobach has been a revelation, especially
Speaker 1: with Reagan's being out, lu Go's out again, and now
Speaker 1: you know it's it's basically Boobach is carrying this rotation.
Speaker 2: Been the unsung here, I mean, and it's funny. They're
Speaker 2: like he can't do dot dot dot and it's like
Speaker 2: almost June and we're like, he can't keep get getting
Speaker 2: away with this. But dude, really interesting when you look
Speaker 2: at this last start, when when you're looking at the
Speaker 2: I guess it's five pitch mix, it's like the prototypical
Speaker 2: of what you would want from a pitcher. So you know,
Speaker 2: he threw fastball thirty six percent of the time. It
Speaker 2: was a fine pitch. It got a lot of swings,
Speaker 2: didn't get a lot of whiffs, but it was in
Speaker 2: the zone. It's but it's set up. He had a
Speaker 2: fifty five percent with rate on his change up, fifty
Speaker 2: seven percent on his sweeper, and fifty percent on his slider,
Speaker 2: and that equated to over fifty percent of his usage.
Speaker 2: He was able to throw for strikes, he was able
Speaker 2: to get whiffs on he was running really good CSW percentages.
Speaker 2: His sweeper has been elite, and he and even though
Speaker 2: that fastball is not a big monster, he's been commanding
Speaker 2: it in a way that sets up these other pitches
Speaker 2: that is getting whiffs like crazy. He's hitting ninety four,
Speaker 2: he's you know, sitting around ninety two ninety three. We
Speaker 2: said it pretty much after the very first start. I
Speaker 2: think it was like one of the first starts we
Speaker 2: saw the season. I remember watching him and I was like, boo,
Speaker 2: which looks great. He looks locked in.
Speaker 1: But we were kind of good right before the season.
Speaker 1: I think we liked him as like a sleeper kind
Speaker 1: of guy. I don't think any of us thought he
Speaker 1: could do this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think I was. I wasn't into Boobich preseason,
Speaker 2: but it was the very first start of the season
Speaker 2: where it was like, Wow, this looks like a different
Speaker 2: version because those secondaries were just moving all through the
Speaker 2: zone getting whiffs and the fastball was setting it up.
Speaker 2: And that has not stopped. And that is why we've
Speaker 2: both been pretty staunch about Boobich this entire you know,
Speaker 2: in season.
Speaker 1: Look at this question from a Garza here, Boobich or
Speaker 1: Sandy rest of season. I made that trade earlier and
Speaker 1: deeply regret it. Now I understand why you made that trade.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm hoping Sandy turns it around. But it's
Speaker 1: tough out to say Sandy is the better part of
Speaker 1: that deal, don't you think?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I feel like I'm gonna be lame here
Speaker 2: if you if I get all the months into the season,
Speaker 2: I just like I'm super stubborn and refuse to believe
Speaker 2: like that Sandy is this bad. I really think it's
Speaker 2: gonna bounce back. And there's this interesting dynamic of that
Speaker 2: of like, you have seven weeks of the incredible Chris Boubage,
Speaker 2: and if you believe he's gonna have some regression, you know,
Speaker 2: all of that goodness is behind us. You think Sandy's
Speaker 2: going to bounce back, Like, I think it's fair to
Speaker 2: say Sandy's best months and starts are in front of
Speaker 2: him for this season.
Speaker 1: I just think he's too.
Speaker 2: Talented of a picture. I would say Sandy al contra,
Speaker 2: but I don't know how you like cut him for
Speaker 2: boobage for Sandy. I don't think you can make that
Speaker 2: move right now. And you can't do one for one trade.
Speaker 2: You've got to get value. But I really do think
Speaker 2: like I'm gonna be stubborn stupid and say that like
Speaker 2: Sandy is going to bounce back on the question the
Speaker 2: latter half.
Speaker 1: Of the season. It's expected he alrighty for bubitch is
Speaker 1: three h six, So it's not awful. I don't know
Speaker 1: what Sandy's is. I can take a look at that
Speaker 1: real quick to.
Speaker 2: Saydy, it's seven nine with an expected five three three
Speaker 2: right now, it's it's it's.
Speaker 1: Not it's not good. Do you do you give any
Speaker 1: credence to I know, Augustin Ramirez has come up and
Speaker 1: been the catcher. Do you think any of that has
Speaker 1: anything to do with some of these issues that Sandy's
Speaker 1: been going through. I mean, I haven't followed it that closely.
Speaker 1: Who's catching him every single day that he's out there?
Speaker 1: But you know, rookie catcher sometimes trying to learn pitch mix.
Speaker 1: I can't imagine maybe he's the one calling the games
Speaker 1: or somebody else is calling the games, right, do you
Speaker 1: really let rookie catchers come up and do that nowadays,
Speaker 1: major League baseball feels like a no.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think so. I think a lot of
Speaker 2: pitchers will do this as well. But also, I mean, like, okay,
Speaker 2: what is he Maybe the last three starts, last three
Speaker 2: starts have been bad, But unfortunately for Sandy, the first
Speaker 2: three starts or first two starts of the season were
Speaker 2: where it was really good. And in between that, five
Speaker 2: of his last six have just been kind of eh.
Speaker 2: And I'm not sure that it's it's a goostin. That's
Speaker 2: part of the problem.
Speaker 1: It's Sandy.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's Sandy. I mean Sandy's also he's been
Speaker 2: hidden close to one hundred, but the changeup has been
Speaker 2: less effective and that's been one of the biggest problems.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a two sixteen average. It was actually
Speaker 2: a better average again so far this year, but it
Speaker 2: hasn't been quite getting the whiffs, and really the the
Speaker 2: other pitches around it haven't been setting it up as well.
Speaker 2: So I don't know. I've seen him good early in games, Sandy,
Speaker 2: and then he just falls apart. So hopefully he gets
Speaker 2: back bouncing with it. And I think Sandy's gonna bounce
Speaker 2: back into the season.
Speaker 1: I'm frozen can you hear me or see.
Speaker 2: Joe is just back?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was just bad.
Speaker 2: There was a frozen Joe and that beautiful Patriots jacket
Speaker 2: there again, and he did say frozen. All right, well,
Speaker 2: I think Sandy is going to bounce back. I almost
Speaker 2: would like to do the poll of that. By the way,
Speaker 2: we have the Joe's and the chat of a Sandy
Speaker 2: versus Boobach rest of season? Where would people go with it?
Speaker 2: Even if not just a poll on the YouTube side
Speaker 2: or here comment below, let us know Sandy or Boobache
Speaker 2: rest of season from this moment on. You don't get
Speaker 2: any of the prior stats of Boo Bitch or Sandy
Speaker 2: from this moment on. What side are you picking? Heyo,
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, Joe, Joe's not gone, so
Speaker 2: it's not really puppet show. There is a little bit
Speaker 2: of a puppet show. It says, Joe's back or I
Speaker 2: will move us on three to keep trying to bring
Speaker 2: him on and it's not working. All right, Well, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna move on until Joe gets Oh there you go
Speaker 2: there right, moving on Joe.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was again, I don't you know what the
Speaker 1: most annoying thing is we did all this stuff so
Speaker 1: I could moved to Firefox. A stream yard would work
Speaker 1: better for us. And you know what, the messages popped up,
Speaker 1: you should try using Google Chrome, and that was the
Speaker 1: one that was giving us all the other problems before.
Speaker 1: So you know what, they all suck. Everything sucks. Robbie
Speaker 1: Ray doesn't suck though. Seven innings, no runs for him,
Speaker 1: seven strikeouts. Robbie Ray had a little rough patch there,
Speaker 1: and I know a lot of us were starting to
Speaker 1: get a little worried about him, but he's really picked
Speaker 1: things up in the last few starts. Two six seventy
Speaker 1: Ray on the year now sixty two strikes, twenty seven walks.
Speaker 1: Look that walks are always gonna be a little bit
Speaker 1: higher with him. Over fifty seven innings, you want the strikeout.
Speaker 1: So that was great. Chandler Simpson hasn't played every single
Speaker 1: day religiously, and I know he's had a hand issue,
Speaker 1: but he came off the bench yesterday and sold two
Speaker 1: more bases, showing you that if you are in those
Speaker 1: head to head category leagues, Chandler Simpson is a very
Speaker 1: very useful piece. I want to talk about Jordan Walker though,
Speaker 1: because he has not been useful this year, he is
Speaker 1: down to one forty seven, one ninety three, two twenty five,
Speaker 1: two homers, thirteen rubies, one steal over thirty games. He
Speaker 1: was benched yesterday. So Welsh, here we find ourselves. The
Speaker 1: Cardinals are playing well. Alec Burlson's getting hot, so playing
Speaker 1: time's going to him. What do we do with Jordan Walker?
Speaker 1: I assume everyone's just cutting him in re draft leagues
Speaker 1: and you're just kind of moving on for other pieces.
Speaker 1: But I want to take this a step further for
Speaker 1: those people who are in dynasty leagues right now, because
Speaker 1: Jordan Walker is a piece that you are you've been
Speaker 1: sitting on and being patient with. Are you at a
Speaker 1: point where you just sell him for pennies on the
Speaker 1: dollar and move on completely if somebody sees him as
Speaker 1: a potential buy low because I feel like we've done
Speaker 1: three years of buy low on Jordan Walker and I
Speaker 1: don't know if we have a fourth in me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean from a yeah that My immede it
Speaker 2: reaction when you said this was like, why are we
Speaker 2: doing this again? We did this with redraft, but dynasty isn't.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But now I want to know about the dynasty
Speaker 1: because I feel like, yeah, that's now where people start
Speaker 1: to look at it and go redraft is easy, you
Speaker 1: move on. But in Dynasty this is tough because he's
Speaker 1: still not very old, and you know, they did kind
Speaker 1: of jerk him around a little bit between the majors,
Speaker 1: between the minors, they made a move positions. But at
Speaker 1: a certain point, I think you have to just call
Speaker 1: it like you see it, which is he has not performed.
Speaker 1: He doesn't. He looks worse than ever almost.
Speaker 2: But the only thing with Diynasty when you say, like
Speaker 2: why why would you sell him for pennies on the dollar?
Speaker 2: Would you cut him? Like in a if you have
Speaker 2: like an eight keeper league, he's easily cuttable. There are
Speaker 2: other guys that would rather take shots on and risks with,
Speaker 2: for sure, if you're in a full on dynasty where
Speaker 2: you keep everybody. I just don't know what the advantage
Speaker 2: is to like, who is trying to buy.
Speaker 1: Sell him for rookie draft picks next year? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Probably, I mean if you could get a second round pick, yeah,
Speaker 2: but I don't even think you could at this point.
Speaker 2: So the answer is like, yes, the general sense, I'm done.
Speaker 2: I'm done with Jordan Walker. I don't think there it
Speaker 2: makes a ton of sense to do it for nothing.
Speaker 2: Jordan Walker feels like he's three years away from playing
Speaker 2: with the White Sox, you know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 2: he's gonna be one of those guys worth you know,
Speaker 2: the White Sox. Every year they just wring out these
Speaker 2: random dudes. It's like, here's Miguel Vargus, and here's Bobby
Speaker 2: doll Back, and here's Travis John Kalski, and it'll just
Speaker 2: be to three, two or three years from now, here's
Speaker 2: Jordan Walker. He's a White Sox. I don't know if
Speaker 2: it's ever going to bounce back completely wrong about him.
Speaker 2: The strikeouts got worse, the batting changes didn't matter. So
Speaker 2: the answer is a general sense is yes, I don't
Speaker 2: know if I can be like I would sell him
Speaker 2: for pennies on the dollars, sell him for nothing. He
Speaker 2: is still young, like I would like if I'm competing,
Speaker 2: I could see dumping him for some older asset that's
Speaker 2: sitting out there.
Speaker 1: But that's the other question I was gonna ask you, like,
Speaker 1: if you can get somebody that's just and like Javier
Speaker 1: Bay's done nothing for two years, right, somebody's gonna give
Speaker 1: you bayas for him, and you're a competing team, I
Speaker 1: think you take it. I think you take it, and
Speaker 1: you don't worry about what Jordan Walker is a year
Speaker 1: or two from now, because.
Speaker 2: I definitely want a keeper in a keeper format unless
Speaker 2: keeping fifteen players like Jordan Walker is not in the discussion,
Speaker 2: regardless of his age, for like even ten keepers in
Speaker 2: a twelve team league. He's not a top one twenty
Speaker 2: keeper in Dynas and.
Speaker 1: Mat on the mound, Good morning, Welsh and Joey P.
Speaker 1: Who would you want rest of season freedom or Jordan Beck.
Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna lean Beck. I want to just
Speaker 2: take a look here real quick. I'd love sixty four
Speaker 2: eight homers, five stilen bases. Yeah, he's been kind of
Speaker 2: popping off. He's barely great. Yeah, the hitting profiles looks
Speaker 2: so good. He's also got Colorado as a you know,
Speaker 2: is like a lock in and there's no worry about
Speaker 2: like Zach Bean and stuff. I'm gonna go with Beck,
Speaker 2: all right.
Speaker 1: This is from the what the hell are we doing here?
Speaker 1: Pirates category, which I feel like is becoming a daily segment.
Speaker 1: Oil Cruse not in the lineup Monday.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: He took a seat after going oh for eight with
Speaker 1: seven strikeouts over the weekend. Now he had a five
Speaker 1: game absence due to the lower back. You think this
Speaker 1: is just the lower back continuing to bother him, or
Speaker 1: do you think he's just from missing a couple of
Speaker 1: days out of timing? What's going on here with the
Speaker 1: Ohio Cruz and is that a situation we should be
Speaker 1: buying into. Is there a by window here for Cruise
Speaker 1: because of the back end the performance in the last
Speaker 1: week and a half.
Speaker 2: That, yeah, that's interesting. I hadn't noticed his average it
Speaker 2: dipped so far that it did down to two twenty three.
Speaker 2: Because the counting stats are allowed eight homers, sixteen stolen bases.
Speaker 2: You know, he's still near the tippy top of the
Speaker 2: stolen base market. Uh three forty nine OBP. Like, that's fantastic.
Speaker 2: He's got some career highs and he's got some like
Speaker 2: top end of the league. I mean he is six
Speaker 2: still even though he's e in two twenty three, sixty
Speaker 2: point five percent hard hit percentage with a twenty two
Speaker 2: percent barrel rate. That's music to my ears. That's love
Speaker 2: barreling like crazy. His strikeouts are really bad, but he's walking.
Speaker 2: But this is that thing right here to forty six
Speaker 2: expected batting average, So you've got a twenty to twenty
Speaker 2: five point jump in his expected batting average. That gets
Speaker 2: me relatively excited. I do think there's some worriome signs
Speaker 2: he's not pulling the ball as much. His own contact
Speaker 2: is down, But I mean, you look here hitting two
Speaker 2: thirty three against forcing fastballs, but an expected three thirty five.
Speaker 2: He's still a monster of forcing fastball hitting. So I
Speaker 2: think he's going to bounce back a bit. I'm a
Speaker 2: buy on onell cruise if people are selling out thinking
Speaker 2: they're worried with the back, but that would be the
Speaker 2: only issue Joey, Like that lingering back is out there.
Speaker 2: They're having him sit games.
Speaker 1: Right the end up going to il and you make it.
Speaker 2: Just put him on the DMIL right now and let
Speaker 2: me go trade for him so we know he can
Speaker 2: get right after. But yeah, I actually I really like
Speaker 2: oneal cruise as a bye right now.
Speaker 1: Fifty to fifty on the pole for the Boobach Sandy
Speaker 1: al contra. So that is a tough one. Man. Uh
Speaker 1: smoked your hog as a question. I did answer this,
Speaker 1: so so I already I already.
Speaker 2: H thank you for reading out his full name.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I just this is what we do
Speaker 1: here on the show. They want to see what you think.
Speaker 1: Though I already gave my answer. I think it was
Speaker 1: on Twitter. I answer this book Ian Reynolds got dropped.
Speaker 1: Do I drop Nimo, a bray You, Robert Dominguez or
Speaker 1: Riley Greenwold Riley Green that's ridiculous, But anyway, that was
Speaker 1: not I don't think the original question I was asked,
Speaker 1: but who would you drop, if any for Brian Reynolds
Speaker 1: from this group. I know my answer obviously if it's
Speaker 1: the same.
Speaker 2: As yours, think well, I mean the answer is probably Domingaz,
Speaker 2: But I don't I got an I'm not sure I
Speaker 2: would drop anybody at this moment. Like if you said,
Speaker 2: I bet you said a bray you, I'm not.
Speaker 1: No, I said Nimmo.
Speaker 2: Actually, let me look at where Nimo is.
Speaker 1: I thought Nimo was the guy where It's like, look,
Speaker 1: Brian Reynolds' best normal plateau season is above what Brandon
Speaker 1: Nimmo gives you. Dominga curs see what he could be?
Speaker 1: A bra who has been pretty decent. Robert again, I'm
Speaker 1: looking for you know, upside there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what, now that I'm looking at it,
Speaker 2: I actually do agree with you. The two twenty averages down.
Speaker 1: Like weakened you. I dragged you down to my level
Speaker 1: to give you this.
Speaker 2: Well, he's also not stealing any bases too, and like that,
Speaker 2: I think Reynolds will. I think he can outperform him
Speaker 2: rest of season. And so yeah, no NEMO for Reynolds
Speaker 2: would be the.
Speaker 1: Move yourd nol Vara says his hand is getting better,
Speaker 1: but it's still sore when he swings. That's not good.
Speaker 1: But Hunter Green's groin is getting right and he's going
Speaker 1: to be activated on Friday. That's good news. The Phillies
Speaker 1: made a transaction make Abele get sent down a triple
Speaker 1: A again. Wall, we knew that was going to happen.
Speaker 1: Let's get to rookie Lookie, because yesterday Matt Shaw came
Speaker 1: back for the Cubbies two for four with a Ribia
Speaker 1: double and that's good news for the Cubs lineup. Welsh,
Speaker 1: I love this. Any takeaways from Matt Shaw's performance yesterday.
Speaker 2: It's huge and I mean we all kind of knew
Speaker 2: this was going to happen, but he said it's bad
Speaker 2: for Moyst's Ballistero's Ian happ is being activated from the
Speaker 2: IL and Moyst's Ballisterio's was optioned unfortunately, So this was
Speaker 2: their commitment maybe also, I mean there's a lot of
Speaker 2: different factors here. You know, you played Michael Bush at third,
Speaker 2: you saw Matt Shaw was up, and it's just not
Speaker 2: time for Moyst's Ballistero's and this is the lineup construction
Speaker 2: that they really like. And I think this is great,
Speaker 2: you know. I mean, Matt Shaw had a phenomenal counting
Speaker 2: stat Minor league season line last year. He can run,
Speaker 2: he can hit for power. Love to see him move
Speaker 2: up in the lineup, love for him to get kind
Speaker 2: of consistent, and love for him to not do the
Speaker 2: Jackson Holiday last year, which is like the tease. You're up,
Speaker 2: then you're down, and then you come back up and
Speaker 2: then you stink again and you're down. So let's hope
Speaker 2: there's consistency, but you should definitely pick up match off.
Speaker 2: You're still floating out there.
Speaker 1: Speaking of stinking, the Orioles have one more win than
Speaker 1: the White Sox this year, just from perspective. Someone said
Speaker 1: that to me this morning and I went, what.
Speaker 2: Is firm that is that?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Looking at the forget the standings right now, that's
Speaker 1: they have fifteen wins, the White Sox have fourteen. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's your perspective of just how bad. I don't think
Speaker 1: any of us, you know, non Vaulta Oriel fans necessarily
Speaker 1: or are obsessing with the win totally the Orioles. But
Speaker 1: that's just perspective for you. That goes a long way.
Speaker 1: Chief Doktahoma shallow league strider coming back. Who am I
Speaker 1: dropping Robert, Matt McLain, Parolta, Well, not dropping Parolta. You're
Speaker 1: not dropping Robert Noopar or McLain or the other two options.
Speaker 1: You know. Ever since they dropped macleaan in the order,
Speaker 1: he starting to hit again. So I don't know if
Speaker 1: I want to do that. I think new Bar is
Speaker 1: the easiest to replace Welsh. What do you think?
Speaker 2: I mean? McClain is just still stinks like he's hitting
Speaker 2: one seventy nine. I guess he has.
Speaker 1: The last week when they dropped him down to order,
Speaker 1: I think the eight or or whatever, all of a
Speaker 1: sudden he just started hitting well.
Speaker 2: He has two hits in his last four games right now,
Speaker 2: and he's still sub everything. He's there's loud counting. I
Speaker 2: think newpar is just more consistent it. Maybe positional stuff
Speaker 2: can make that steals too.
Speaker 1: McClain does have stolen bases in there too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he doesn't get on base like he's got.
Speaker 2: You can't get base to steal. Yeah, exactly, So I'm
Speaker 2: fine if you key. I think McClain, like Nupar, is
Speaker 2: performing better, but McClain is the better upside. Fantasy play
Speaker 2: cut one of them based on your positional needs. I
Speaker 2: think McClain is like the weakest link of that.
Speaker 1: Group though, Cody and Anaheim. If you have to trade
Speaker 1: one third basement away, would it be Kemin Arrow or Viento's.
Speaker 1: I have both these guys in my home league, and
Speaker 1: I'd be crazy this year. We're gonna talk about Vento's
Speaker 1: later in the program too, because we can just talk
Speaker 1: about now. He was in one of the downs where
Speaker 1: he's basically sacrificing power trying to hit for more average,
Speaker 1: and I hate that he's doing it because I just
Speaker 1: think it's it's not the best version of him. My
Speaker 1: answer would be Vento's because I'm still I still think
Speaker 1: Cammanaro is the superior prospect or piece talent wise, upside wise,
Speaker 1: But if Camonaro brings you back more, I still think
Speaker 1: Vento's can get you by. But what do you think Welsh.
Speaker 2: That's the problem right there. I would clearly say Ventos
Speaker 2: is the one I want out, but I think this
Speaker 2: might be a huge differential in what you can get back.
Speaker 2: I think Camonaro's name value gives you two tiers higher
Speaker 2: of the player that you can get back. The problem
Speaker 2: is is I just I think they're going to go
Speaker 2: in opposite directions. You know, shout out to that one guy.
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry I forced you to draft Junior Camanaro,
Speaker 2: and I hope your team is okay. Like, I think
Speaker 2: camon Aro's gonna like, I think he's gonna bounce back.
Speaker 2: He's got a two sixty one expected batting average. I
Speaker 2: think we're gonna start reclicking. Strikeouts are still low, you know.
Speaker 2: I think there's a little bit of bad luck in there.
Speaker 2: But I just think they're gonna separate eight in value.
Speaker 2: So here's my problem. You get more for Cameron Arrow,
Speaker 2: but I think he could still be a top six
Speaker 2: or seven third basement rest of season. I'm not sure
Speaker 2: Vento's is going to be so I would try to
Speaker 2: move Vento's but you know, I don't know what you
Speaker 2: can get for.
Speaker 1: Him or back to the rookie. Lookie, you know Elsa's
Speaker 1: picking things up. Cam Smith over his last seven games
Speaker 1: hitting three ninety one, nine for twenty three three RBIs
Speaker 1: two for four yesterday somebody dropped them. Maybe this is
Speaker 1: the time to pick them up. Jordan Lawler not in
Speaker 1: the lineup again. He started only twice in seven games. Welsh,
Speaker 1: I feel like I've been lied to. I think management
Speaker 1: has lied to me. And this was my this was
Speaker 1: my nightmare. And I said it when they called him up.
Speaker 1: We talked about on the Waiver Wires show. I think
Speaker 1: it was just last week and I said, I don't
Speaker 1: want to spend all my fab on a guy who's
Speaker 1: going to play four days a week because I don't
Speaker 1: believe that they're going to play him four days a week.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's annoying. It's Tory Lavello just is a
Speaker 2: super liarrating person. Yeah, well, he's an absolute liar. He
Speaker 2: doesn't know what to do with the bullpen. He literally
Speaker 2: makes only the wrong decision and the Jordan Lawler stuff,
Speaker 2: it's like, you know, you didn't want to stunt his growth.
Speaker 2: But it's amazing. This is a rookie with less than
Speaker 2: fifty at bats that debuted three years ago. He debuted
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty three, and he still has like one
Speaker 2: hundred at bats to go or whatever the hell it
Speaker 2: is until he has he has his rookie eligibility gone.
Speaker 2: You are gonna stunt the growth. He wasn't. I guess
Speaker 2: I wanted you to bring him up and so he
Speaker 2: could play, and I guess I would have complained if
Speaker 2: you didn't. But you're just bringing him up and doing
Speaker 2: nothing with him. But this was the warning I think
Speaker 2: both of us had said. I definitely said was like
Speaker 2: as excited as I am, and it's great that he's here.
Speaker 2: I'm cautiously like about him right now because he's gonna
Speaker 2: hit lower in the lineup four to five. We have
Speaker 2: to see them play him four to five days, which
Speaker 2: he ain't and he's hitting low in the lineup. So
Speaker 2: it's just no big asset should have been dropped for
Speaker 2: Jordan Lawler. And at this point I wouldn't blame you
Speaker 2: if you drop him down, and you know you don't
Speaker 2: need to hold on to him until Lavelo starts to
Speaker 2: change something which he.
Speaker 1: No, no, just for fantasy purposes. We were lied to.
Speaker 1: That's the end of the Hayden bird song is going
Speaker 1: to start today, so we'll get a sense of him,
Speaker 1: hopefully good things tomorrow. Will report back and shout out
Speaker 1: to concerned doctor who subbed with Prime. Remember you can
Speaker 1: use your Prime account to sub here, and you can
Speaker 1: avoid all those stinky ads on Twitch and hang out
Speaker 1: with us every single day. Talk in baseball, three up
Speaker 1: and three down, Sonny Gray Well seth our producers, Cardinals
Speaker 1: look at good, They're ten strikeouts, unbelievable. What about those Cardinals.
Speaker 1: William Contreras went four to four with two doubles, two
Speaker 1: rubies and a walk and a steal for good measure,
Speaker 1: and Julia Rodriguez his second career Grand Slam. It was
Speaker 1: an eighth inning, five to one victory over the White Sox.
Speaker 1: The downs Kyer Montero five runs and five and two thirds,
Speaker 1: Deed Creamer, Well, he just keeps on dean creaming all
Speaker 1: over the place, four runs, nine hits and five and
Speaker 1: a third and then Mark Vientos again zero for four
Speaker 1: against the Red Sox also in that game too. We're
Speaker 1: starting to get the Jan Soto not hustling enough stuff
Speaker 1: that that's happening. Who cares he's not hustling out ground balls.
Speaker 1: I mean, all the all the stars do this. Let's
Speaker 1: not overrate this, all right. And then yesterday he hit
Speaker 1: a ball off the wall. He thought it was a
Speaker 1: home run. Everybody thought it was a home run. He
Speaker 1: only got a single, and then he stole second because
Speaker 1: he realized he was wrong for not hustling. Please, I was.
Speaker 1: I was about it. Everybody Nobody cares.
Speaker 2: No, I mean, I'm good with that. Like I can't
Speaker 2: stand when players aren't going to like play into hustle.
Speaker 2: But I will say this, I don't think I've ever
Speaker 2: had this before. At this moment where they were interviewing
Speaker 2: was a Mendoza. They were interviewing that yeah, yeah, the
Speaker 2: messager yeah, and and and he was talking and they're like,
Speaker 2: you know, oh, hey, Soto didn't hustle out, you know,
Speaker 2: and you blah blah blah blah blah. You think it's
Speaker 2: something we got to talk about. And he's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: we'll talk about it. And I've never had this before,
Speaker 2: but I had this moment where it's like, once I
Speaker 2: was not going to listen to you. The guy has
Speaker 2: all the money. You paid him so much money. He
Speaker 2: is more important than every every in that entire organization.
Speaker 2: If he wanted to, you could have a full on,
Speaker 2: just chaotic moment where that guy doesn't need to listen
Speaker 2: to anything. He's not playing for anything new anymore except
Speaker 2: for his legacy. And you got to hope that these
Speaker 2: players care about their legacy in the game. But I
Speaker 2: don't know, it was just this weird like I'm like.
Speaker 1: No, I don't Mendoza is very popular in that clubhouse
Speaker 1: though you know, like some managers are not really well liked,
Speaker 1: he is beloved by those guys. And I know Soto's new,
Speaker 1: so it's still work in progress. I think the conversation
Speaker 1: is like, hey, it's a bad look, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, and he goes, yeah, yeah, I got a coach,
Speaker 1: Like I think that's that's the conversation. And the fact
Speaker 1: that I think he recognized it and went out and
Speaker 1: stole the base. It was like, this should have been
Speaker 1: a double my bad everybody. And you know, look, you
Speaker 1: know one Soto is still young, but he's getting a
Speaker 1: little older now. Welsh, do you have an activity plan
Speaker 1: for today, Well, I talk to the people about Kaisa.
Speaker 2: Trex or yeah, sure, I haven't even pantomime.
Speaker 1: If you want.
Speaker 2: Fantasy pros lamp that I'm you know what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna should.
Speaker 1: You should make s'mores. You should, That's what you should do.
Speaker 1: You should pantomime making s'mores with your family and maybe
Speaker 1: playing the guitar by the campfire, because, as we all know,

Speaker 1: Porter Hodge is heading to the I l he's got
Speaker 1: no obleique issue. We all know what that means. I'll
Speaker 1: see you for a couple of months, buddy. Uh, Presley
Speaker 1: or Pomerans Welsh that's the question.
Speaker 2: Now they went to plenty or whatever.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I think that was just a I don't
Speaker 1: think that's you think that's it? Actually?
Speaker 2: I think might get the next run, yeah, because they
Speaker 2: really lost faith. I think Presley makes more sense, but
Speaker 2: I think it might be Pomerans.
Speaker 1: It's amazing. It feels like like I'm trying to remember
Speaker 1: what year Drew Pomerans came up, Like he was in
Speaker 1: that grouping of prospects and there was like a bunch
Speaker 1: of those guys and they just none of them panned out.
Speaker 1: I feel like what was his original team? Was it
Speaker 1: the po Padres Oh, definitely Padres, Drew Pomeranz and the
Speaker 1: padres Ian happ expected to return some point this week,
Speaker 1: as we already know from Welsh we talked about that.
Speaker 1: Imnaga is also schedule for the Cubs to resume throwing,
Speaker 1: So lots of injury news there from the Cubbies. AJ
Speaker 1: Puck and Eduardo Riguez both resumed throwing for the Diamondbacks,
Speaker 1: so we'll keep you an updated eye on that. Hassi
Speaker 1: on Kim is gonna be gonna rehab assignment? Where does
Speaker 1: he fit in here.
Speaker 2: For the Rays in their lineup on the field.
Speaker 1: Where who's he knocking out?
Speaker 2: Well, I mean who they? I'm not thinking of their
Speaker 2: roster right now. I mean he's gonna most likely play
Speaker 2: short or second, so I mean he's gonna go somewhere
Speaker 2: into the middle endfield. You have to give me the
Speaker 2: was ah.
Speaker 1: So we got right allow a second, we got Caballero
Speaker 1: at shortstop and we got Junior Caminero. I assume Caballero
Speaker 1: is not an everyday player when Kim comes back or maybe,
Speaker 1: but also a little more outfield too, because you got Simpson,
Speaker 1: Meisner and uh Josh Lowe. So I mean it's I
Speaker 1: just don't know where he plays.
Speaker 2: I think he did. I think he coul DH a
Speaker 2: little bit and he plays short. I think that's what.
Speaker 2: And then I think Caballero becomes like their super util
Speaker 2: type of play.
Speaker 1: So then Aronda loses that bad.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, yeah, that's what.
Speaker 1: That's what I mean. Like I'm looking at him and
Speaker 1: I know people are saying, do I pick him up?
Speaker 1: And I'm thinking, I think i'd either have Okay, the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Nerds says, well, he's a better hitter than Kyalairo,
Speaker 1: but is that the way the Razor thinking that's the problem.
Speaker 2: But also they like to platoon Ronda, so I think
Speaker 2: you could have. I think Ironic can stay in his
Speaker 2: strong side platoon and then Kim could maybe a little
Speaker 2: bit play on the short side, and then he would
Speaker 2: go at short. I'm just not sure Kim or Cavera
Speaker 2: is gonna hold off Hassan.
Speaker 1: Kim Okay, I don't think so. Tiger has put Reese
Speaker 1: Olsen on the io with a right finger inflammation, so
Speaker 1: that's things justin Verlander is dealing with a pectorial discomfort.
Speaker 1: So I don't know. Too many bench presses getting swolved.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what's going on there.
Speaker 2: Remember Kaisa Trek's tender.
Speaker 1: Gey, I go, He's he's in his forties, Verlander, I mean,
Speaker 1: sures are God. He should have had the Kaisa tracks
Speaker 1: to start the year.
Speaker 2: By the way, though, you want to know, yesterday I
Speaker 2: went over to the Surprise stadium over by me and
Speaker 2: you know who I saw and got to meet Rich Hill?
Speaker 1: Oh Rich Hill.
Speaker 2: Rich Hill was down there. He was actually watching the game.
Speaker 2: Everyone knows he signed with the Royals and everyone's making
Speaker 2: a big deal. It'd be the fifteenth team he's played for.
Speaker 2: But he was sitting out there watching the game. And
Speaker 2: funny enough, Jaden Fielder was playing. That's Prince Fielder's kid.
Speaker 2: So you have three generations, you know, the third.
Speaker 1: Generation Fielder father grandson.
Speaker 2: Rich Hill is the one of only two major league
Speaker 2: players that is still older than me. So I was
Speaker 2: very very excited. Yeah, and I'm like the kid. I'm
Speaker 2: like a little baby kid in front of a finally
Speaker 2: older major leaguer. But he was just chilling. He wasn't
Speaker 2: doing anything yet. So I don't know what his plan
Speaker 2: is to play, but him and Erlinder the only older guys.
Speaker 1: I'm always whimsical about Rich Hill because Rich Hill's rookie
Speaker 1: season when he came out for the Cubs, him and
Speaker 1: a young rookie Cole Hamils led me to a fantasy
Speaker 1: championship that year. I can't I want to say it
Speaker 1: was two thousand and five. I could go luck was
Speaker 1: Rich Hill's rookie year two thousand and five. I want
Speaker 1: to say it was two thousand and five. It was
Speaker 1: rich Hill, Cole Hammil's coming up. And it'll be crazy
Speaker 1: to me to fantasy glory what he.
Speaker 2: Would have been twenty Uh, he'd have been twenty five
Speaker 2: at that time. He's forty five years old, so he
Speaker 2: would have been twenty five. So it might be before.
Speaker 2: Did rich Hill debut before two thousand?
Speaker 1: I don't know. We need we need a Rich Hill
Speaker 1: statistical updates. We'll run to the Google machine. Did do
Speaker 1: have fast this weekend? At see? When did he?
Speaker 2: I want to see fast typer?
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 2: I got two.
Speaker 1: Thousand and five, nailed it, nailed it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, with the Cubs two thousand and five, so he
Speaker 2: had twenty years of major league.
Speaker 1: But you know what, I don't think it was them.
Speaker 1: I think I'm misremembering. I think it was the two
Speaker 1: thousand end. Maybe it was the two thousand I think
Speaker 1: he was win though. No, it was the two thousand
Speaker 1: and six season that he came up and was good though,
Speaker 1: because obviously two thousand and five he was not good.
Speaker 1: He only made a couple of story.
Speaker 2: He wasn't very good in two thousand and six, two
Speaker 2: thousand and six four US.
Speaker 1: I know we had a really good run at the
Speaker 1: end the end of the season, Imber.
Speaker 2: Because he had a four to one seven ERA only
Speaker 2: six wins in two thousand and six.
Speaker 1: Well, I could tell you because when was Cole Hamil.
Speaker 2: Two thousand and seven, he had a three nine two
Speaker 2: ERA with eleven wins and he pitched one hundred and
Speaker 2: ninety five.
Speaker 1: It was two thousand and six because I remember it
Speaker 1: was him and Hammil's and I had the both of them,
Speaker 1: and I had picked him up off the waiver wire,
Speaker 1: and I was so proud of myself. Still very early
Speaker 1: in the Fantasy you know universe, for me, I think
Speaker 1: I started playing in ninety eight. It was in my
Speaker 1: first Fantasy league. But in two thousand and six that
Speaker 1: was a big championship I won. There's a lot of
Speaker 1: money on the line in that one, so I'm happy
Speaker 1: to see him out there making money for himself. Casey
Speaker 1: Mice hamstring through five inning simulated game on Monday at
Speaker 1: my trout is now running on the field, everybody. No
Speaker 1: more hyperbaric chamber running. That's good news. Also good news
Speaker 1: we have a returning Spencer Strider, which brings us to
Speaker 1: today's Best Bets of the Day with Joey p and
Speaker 1: the Well Spencer Strider, little tiny baby number. I know
Speaker 1: he hasn't pitched it in a while, but five and
Speaker 1: a half I'll take it. I got all strikeouts today.
Speaker 1: That's where I'm going. Five and a half strikeouts. Let's
Speaker 1: go for minus one ten. Dylan sees another small strikeout
Speaker 1: number for him, minus one oh six, five and a half.
Speaker 1: Let's go over against Toronto. Strider gets the Nats, Cease
Speaker 1: gets the Blue Jays, and Logan Henderson also at five
Speaker 1: and a half minus, won sixteen against the Baltimore Orioles,
Speaker 1: the team that's won fifteen games all year. And Logan
Speaker 1: Henderson's going out there and showed you he ain't intimidated.
Speaker 1: And I think the Orioles are sputtering right now. So
Speaker 1: I got three k props, all overs, five and a
Speaker 1: half strikeouts. You know what, Welsh, I'm gonna have to
Speaker 1: parlay them together while you give your best bets of
Speaker 1: the day. I'm gonna do that right now and see
Speaker 1: what kind of money I can lose tonight.
Speaker 2: That'll probably be a good like five or six to one.
Speaker 2: I almost joined you in just going all the Sames.
Speaker 2: I've got two Nerfe's for you. We haven't nerfeed a
Speaker 2: whole bunch lately. The last one we did hit, but
Speaker 2: we've got two today. They could be dynasy, but it's
Speaker 2: all about the pitching matchup, avoiding the offense. Atlanta Washington Strider.
Speaker 2: As you mentioned, you got the K's Strider and Mitchell
Speaker 2: Parker going down Atlanta Braves offense, especially at the top.
Speaker 2: Parker a little bit better early on in game. So
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with no run first inning Braves and
Speaker 2: Nationals minus one twenty five. I'm also going to San
Speaker 2: Diego Toronto. San Diego is scary, but Chris Bassett has
Speaker 2: also been scary. You've got Bassett versus Cease. I think
Speaker 2: the pitching matchups are gonna lock down, especially early on,
Speaker 2: so minus one twenty five and then avoiding a third
Speaker 2: nurfe Cincinnati first five money line, we are taking Nick
Speaker 2: Martinez has been pretty solid. Pittsburgh has not. Pittsburgh has
Speaker 2: just kind of been a disaster. So Nick Martinez, we're
Speaker 2: backing him through the first five innings on the money line.
Speaker 2: Push or win, that's the play. I think I was
Speaker 2: two zero to one yesterday or something like that. So
Speaker 2: let's extend it on to a little bit of risk
Speaker 2: with those nerfees and a money line. What's your pilot?
Speaker 2: Let me guess. Is it five and a half to one.
Speaker 1: Six to one, almost seven to one, six eighty one
Speaker 1: because two of them are plus money right now? I
Speaker 1: love it. I love it. Let's go. I want to
Speaker 1: do it. I'm gonna do it. That's what I'm gonna do.
Speaker 2: You can you can do it with fandle I can't.
Speaker 1: And you know what I mean. I'm not a new customer,
Speaker 1: but new customer's gonna have five bucks and win two

Speaker 1: the home run board and see what that bad boy
Speaker 1: looks like? Oh, well, she got his highlight back, but
Speaker 1: now he's moved to column number two. Wonky Penguin eighteen
Speaker 1: keeping it real for the Fantasy Pros Life first year,
Speaker 1: Marty at the top with twenty. Then we've got George
Speaker 1: and far out at nineteen. Wonkey coming for that Sammy
Speaker 1: Sosa Jersey, though she's motivated now I can't remember. She
Speaker 1: is Cubs fan, right, not a Twins fan. God, she's
Speaker 1: a Cubs but she's a Vikings fan. That's there's like
Speaker 1: a weirdness there.
Speaker 2: By the way. Look at I like Alternator who has
Speaker 2: fifteen full valvelene gas. Yes their name so not just
Speaker 2: not just fifteen, but have.
Speaker 1: Been a j yes it. Wonkey is a Cubs fan,
Speaker 1: so she Wonkey, Sammy Sosa, love him, hate him? That's
Speaker 1: what I want to know, Wonky. Drop it in the
Speaker 1: chat here? Where do you stand there? What a weird
Speaker 1: fan of Cubs, Vikings, t Wolves and Oilers. The Oilers
Speaker 1: in there too. The Oilers. I understand if you grew
Speaker 1: up with Gretzky and Messy a back in the day,
Speaker 1: that I understand. But it's weird that she went Vikings, Tea, Wolves,
Speaker 1: but then Cubs and not Twins. That's that's the weird
Speaker 1: one there.
Speaker 2: So that seems like a very defiant you're being defiant
Speaker 2: against somebody.
Speaker 1: Well, not defiant again, Sammy Sosa Jersey from personal oxbe
Speaker 1: Oh she's being defined.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, I'm saying I'm going to vote go
Speaker 2: for the others.
Speaker 1: All right. So Nick Cassianos did not hit a home
Speaker 1: run yesterday, so I'm sticking with the Phillies anyway. Bryce
Speaker 1: Harper plus three ninety. He's got two homers of one
Speaker 1: thousand ops against Senzetela. How annoying was it yesterday that
Speaker 1: all those numbers yesterday against Freeland are so good and
Speaker 1: Freeland up pitching very well against the Phillies. Then he
Speaker 1: leaves the game and then it implodes on him. Schwarberg
Speaker 1: goes yard. Just classic baseball betting, like you just can't
Speaker 1: get around it. So give me Bryce Harper today. Where
Speaker 1: else where are you going for your home run call?
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go pd Alonzo, Pa Alonzo, get me back
Speaker 2: on the board. It's been a little minute. I think
Speaker 2: it's been about a week since I've gotten on the board.
Speaker 2: So pe Alonzo is my home run call of the day.
Speaker 1: So she got WGN as a kid growing up in Iowa.
Speaker 1: That's why. So I remember Pennsylvania. You can get WGN too.
Speaker 1: We used to watch the Cubs games in central Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2: It's a good point. I remember what was it WGN
Speaker 2: for the Cubs and then Turner whatever it was for
Speaker 2: the Braves that were always on.
Speaker 1: So, oh, eleven day, stil Swarberfest. We're just gonna make
Speaker 1: a Shwarmterfest June first, because I haven't heard anything from
Speaker 1: the Wahwa yet, and until it's wah wah official, you know,
Speaker 1: it's not really official. But I don't care. Junish Rubberfest.
Speaker 1: Although he's been terrific, Peter Alonzo needs to start throwing
Speaker 1: the ball to the right direction though, because this is
Speaker 1: now a couple of games is two in a row
Speaker 1: now where p Alonzo has got the yips throwing the baseball.
Speaker 1: It's not worth the ball.
Speaker 2: I don't need him to throw it.
Speaker 1: I need him to I know, but I need him
Speaker 1: to throw the baseball. That's what of him too. And
