The trade deadline has ended, the dust 6 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: is settled, and it was active. I don't know, Welsh, 7 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 1: this felt to me like the most active trade deadline 8 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: I've ever seen, not necessarily the biggest blockbusters of all time. 9 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 1: Some pretty big moves, that's for sure. We broke down 10 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 1: a bunch of them yesterday. We have even more today 11 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: to discuss, and of course we're doing it on our 12 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: twitch twitch dot tv slash Fantasy Pros.

We 16 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 1: got to be given away that Wan Gonzales jersey now, 17 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: so that's it time do we get a new one? 18 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 1: Did the new one pop up? I don't know yet. 19 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe on Monday we'll have the new jersey to 20 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: give away. But Welsh, our MLB insider is here, today 21 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: there were winners that were losers. So for you, who 22 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: was the biggest winner yesterday of the MLB trade deadline? 23 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 2: Ooh, I think. I mean, if I had to pick one, 24 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,479 Speaker 2: I kind of want to lean on the It wasn't 25 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 2: just about yesterday. It was about the Mariners. But I 26 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: think there's three clear winners to me, Mariners, Padres, Mets. 27 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 2: I think those are your clear winners across the board. 28 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 2: The Mariners had one thing that they needed to figure out, 29 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 2: one thing, their bats, and that's what they did. They 30 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 2: went out and talked to the Diamondbacks and said, would 31 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 2: you like a bunch of nothing? And they're like, as 32 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,119 Speaker 2: a matter of fact, we would like a bunch of nothing. 33 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 2: We'll give you everything. And that's what happened, and they 34 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: got their bats to cover what is already a great 35 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 2: bullpen and an incredible pitching staff. The Padres think had 36 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 2: so many holes in different spots. They had the blockbuster 37 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 2: where they have the best bullpen in baseball, that's not 38 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 2: even arguable. I think at this point they've got an 39 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 2: incredible bullpen. They didn't get rid of cease. They found 40 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 2: a mechanical issue with Darvish. You got your starters back, 41 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 2: and then they went and acquired a couple new hitters, 42 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 2: which we'll talk about. And then the Mets kind of 43 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 2: did I think a similar Padres ish thing. They just 44 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 2: covered a lot of different bases. They didn't really get 45 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 2: into the rotation stuff, but they got a lot of 46 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 2: bullpen help. As mentioned, they got a little bit on 47 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 2: the bats. I think Mullins is a nice git for them. 48 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 2: So I think those three are kind of in the 49 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 2: driver's chair. But I would rank it probably like Seattle. 50 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 2: Padres is Tier one and then Mets are right there. 51 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 2: Those are my winners. 52 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: What do you think, Well, look, it's a new day 53 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,679 Speaker 1: in Major League Baseball, so I think everybody saw the 54 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: blueprints the Dodgers were laying out, you know, last couple 55 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 1: of years here we were just going, you know, starters 56 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: for five innings and then it's gonna be bullpen you 57 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: to death and specialization. And the Mets and Yankees, I 58 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: think they're are good the best two jobs of fortifying 59 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: the bullpen. Like I like what the Phillies did to 60 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,519 Speaker 1: getting drawn. That was the biggest missing link for them, huge, 61 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: huge for them. Do I trust the rest of the 62 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: bullpen in between? Not necessarily, especially the playoffs. But I 63 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: think what the Mets did, what the Yankees did, I 64 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: think were was very good. I like, you know, the 65 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,519 Speaker 1: Blue Jays getting Shane Bieber and then having him for 66 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: next year too. I thought that was very cagy. The 67 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: losers to me, Welsh, I mean, to me, I think 68 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: the losers are the Tigers. I don't think did enough 69 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: that that was a big one that set out to me, 70 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: Like the Tigers, you guys, you know, good win ninety 71 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: something games and you're gonna be ousted in the first 72 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: round of the playoffs. I think the Twins, I don't think, 73 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: you know, got what they needed to in return. The 74 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: Brewers I don't think did enough. The Brave Is not 75 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,239 Speaker 1: doing anything was weird to me, like what are you doing? 76 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: I try to get something, some help for next year. 77 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: And the Pirates the other one too, where I mean 78 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: they held Keller like, I don't know, I don't know 79 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: what those teams are doing. But let's talk about some 80 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: of these moves here. I start with Carls Carey, who's 81 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: going back to the Twins. So we had Suarez going 82 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: back to the Mariners, and then Carls Carea going back 83 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: to the Twins. Yesterday, So clearly a big need here. 84 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: They needed some help in the infield. With Paras out 85 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: for an extended period of time. Good move, good fit 86 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: goes right back home to a place where he's very 87 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: you know, comfortable playing. So I thought this was a 88 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: huge win for the Astros. What did you think? 89 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, they needed live bodies. They had absolutely nobody. Paratus 90 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 2: is going to be out till might be out till 91 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 2: twenty and twenty six at this point, go back in 92 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 2: time twenty sixteen. They don't know what the hell's going 93 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 2: on with Alvarez. Jeremy Peney I believe is actually gonna 94 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 2: be back today. But yeah, they need if they're going 95 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 2: to take this division. Because what just happened. You had 96 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 2: the Rangers who improved slightly, you know a little bit 97 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 2: of bullpen help and rotation help. The Mariners, who all 98 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 2: were already positioned I think in a good spot, made 99 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 2: two huge moves, so you couldn't just sit on your laurels. 100 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 2: I think getting Korea back is phenomenal. He understands this ballpark. 101 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 2: He's had some of his best years clearly there. He's 102 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 2: only had one good year with the Twins, and it 103 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 2: was a year after the Astros. So yeah, him playing 104 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 2: third base with Paine, I think they've got an incredibly 105 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 2: strong infield and I think offensively, like from a fantasy perspective, 106 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 2: this is going to help him. So yeah, I really 107 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 2: like this move. And that's a super super headative division. 108 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 2: I think just to throw in here, not that go backwards. 109 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 2: But like you you're saying about the losers, Like, I 110 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 2: think that division is a big winner. There were a 111 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 2: bunch of and the reason I'm saying this, there's a 112 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 2: bunch of like loser teams that didn't do stuff they 113 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 2: should have done. White Sox, Robert, Diamondbacks, Gallon. You mentioned 114 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 2: the Pirates, but I think there were actually more losers 115 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 2: in the Al East as well. And I disagree with 116 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 2: you on the Yankees. Yeah, Red Sox, they traded away 117 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,359 Speaker 2: Devers and then they said, hey, you know we're going 118 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 2: to still compete. We're going to do stuff they didn't. 119 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 2: They got dustin May. I don't think the Yankees covered 120 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 2: the areas they should have done. The Rays were just 121 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 2: weird in what they were doing. I guess they did 122 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 2: have some improvement the Blue Jays, But what I'm getting 123 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: at is like there were I think more negatives in 124 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 2: that losers in that division, that that division is all 125 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 2: kind of crazy, and that just opens up the al 126 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 2: it as a whole. And then the Mariners and the 127 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 2: Astra and all those two teams improved. So I think 128 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 2: that it makes it all but more competitive and a 129 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 2: bonus that they were able to go out and get 130 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 2: Carlo's career kind of shocked at it was like one 131 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 2: prospect and I think covering both most of the money. 132 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 2: But this is what they should have done, and like 133 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 2: I said, I think it's a plus for him in fantasy. 134 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: Look the Carls Curry move for me, you know the 135 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: Astros again, it's it's like you don't have Alvarez. I 136 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: just don't know what they're gonna be without him in 137 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: a big spot like that. That's the big thing to 138 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: be coming back around to it and just we'll find out. 139 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 2: Well, look Padres, but the plus is he's not back. 140 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 2: They're still holding court in. 141 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: The division and in a division, but like without Alvarez, 142 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: I just don't think they can. I don't think they've 143 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: got a world series running them without a guy like Alvarez, 144 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: and that not just Alvarez, healthy Alvarez, which I don't 145 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: know if you're gonna get it. Anyway, the Padres did 146 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: get Ryan O'Hearn and Ramon Loreano, so that was a 147 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,679 Speaker 1: really good job by them. They also acquired Nest Cortez, 148 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: left headed pitcher for the Brewers. So I love this. 149 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: I mean, there is any prospects in here from any 150 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 1: of these deals really pop to you? And this Padres 151 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 1: sequence of events. 152 00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, the whole system. They traded their entire system, of joking. 153 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 2: They traded like the draft Boston Bateman, cop High Tower 154 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 2: Victor figure out yesterday. Yeah, clearly it is comical, Like 155 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 2: it is laughably comical what they do with their system. 156 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 2: They've got like three prospects I could name, like off 157 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 2: the top of my head, you know, Humberto Cruz, Ethan Solace. 158 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 2: And I did this yesterday in Cash Mayfield who they 159 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 2: took in the first. They traded everybody, and that's why 160 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 2: this is like the biggest all in spot. I like 161 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 2: the offensive pieces that they got Ryan O'Hearn, I think 162 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 2: is huge for this offense. Put him hitting five or six, though, 163 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 2: I will say, and me being negative about Suarez going 164 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 2: to Seattle, which is just clearly a fantasy downgrade from 165 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 2: a ballpark factor. Ryan O'Hearn is facing the same thing. 166 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 2: Looking at ballpark factors, the Orioles from overall overall ballpark 167 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 2: factor ools were number three for left handed hitters in 168 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 2: all of baseball, Padres fourth worst in all of baseball. 169 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 2: And then home run factor Oriole's number one in baseball, 170 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 2: number one home run factor for left handed hitters out there, 171 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 2: and the Padres I think are the hell of the 172 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 2: padres here the Padres, oh they're fourth worst. Yeah, So 173 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 2: I mean, like this is not even arguably a worse environment, 174 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 2: but there's really great pieces around him which could create 175 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 2: RBI opportunities. So I actually don't even know if I 176 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 2: down grade O'Hearn fully when you compare the Yes, it's 177 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 2: a down grade ballpark factor, but you got Tatisa Machado 178 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 2: and all those guys hitting in front of you that 179 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: could create a bunch of really cool spots for him. 180 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: Let's go to ms liv's question here, start one, Mitch Keller, 181 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: Coors or Kershaw Casey. I'll take Kershaw Casey for the Dodgers. 182 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not even. 183 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: Claus D's wants to know she han't take may spot 184 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: in the rotation. No, because Snow's coming back, So that's it. 185 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 2: Unless Yeah, I think. 186 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,599 Speaker 1: She and my take show all Tony spot in the 187 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: rotation depending on how he feels like that's that's more 188 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: likely to happen, I think than taking anybody else's spot. 189 00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: That's just my take. 190 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 2: One interesting too, I saw people throwing out that they're like, hey, 191 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 2: could May like close in Boston. I guess one of 192 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 2: the reasons they also traded dustin May was he wanted 193 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 2: to be a starter. The Dodgers viewed him as a 194 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 2: leveragy reliever, but he fully fully committed and wanted to 195 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 2: be a starting pitcher. So I would imagine this trade 196 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 2: kind of helps that, you know, you go back with 197 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 2: his buddy Walker Buehler, and he can be a starter. 198 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 2: In Boston, the. 199 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: Astros acquired Hayesy Sanchez. That was a Caju move by 200 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: the Astros too, so the Astros corea Sanchez. Those two 201 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: moves there, it definitely helps. Like I just again, you 202 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: need that big straw that stirs the drink at Alvarsus, 203 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 1: that guy you mentioned the Dust and May trade. That 204 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: was kind of the only thing the Red Sox did. 205 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, it doesn't they try easy for me 206 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: the Yank. 207 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 2: But oh gohe I'm just gonna say, I think one 208 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 2: of the things that happened was the Red Sox were 209 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 2: only in the market for the big dogs. I think 210 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 2: they were only trying to get Joe Ryan and san 211 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 2: Die al Contra and all intentsive purposes. It looks like 212 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 2: those guys were they were asking for the absolute world, 213 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 2: like the Yankees apparently were in on Sandy, but the 214 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 2: Marlins were demanding one of George Lombard and Spencer Jones, 215 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 2: and the Yankees were just essentially putting them as untied. 216 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: But they got Flora's to that deal. Raphael Flora, who 217 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: I just saw play in person a couple of weeks. 218 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 2: But he's not an untouchable prospect. 219 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 1: He's a good prospect. No, but I will tell you, 220 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: do you remember when I came back for that game. 221 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: The one thing I said, I like the catcher Flores. 222 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 1: I was like, that's the one go back, everybody watch 223 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: that show. I don't know what day it was, but 224 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 1: I said to you, I said, Lombard completely unimpressed. The 225 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 1: one guy that set out to me with the catching prospect, 226 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: Flores was a major leaguer, and I was like that 227 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: kid's gonna be a good, solid major league catcher. So 228 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: good job by the Pirates identifying that piece. I do 229 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: like that, But again, Mitch Keller is sitting there collecting dust. 230 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: You're not going to compete next year. Either that or 231 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: they're just expectations are way. 232 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 2: But again it was like both. If the I think 233 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 2: those two teams that were so focused on the biggest 234 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 2: acquisitions and those acquisitions were costing your untouchable prospects, or 235 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,079 Speaker 2: for the Red Sox it might have been mayor it 236 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 2: might have been I would imagine Christian Campbell was at 237 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,599 Speaker 2: the tippy top and they just weren't willing to, you know, 238 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 2: willing to make those moves. 239 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 1: All right, Ay Garza, I was offered Kurtz and Munios 240 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 1: from Ladd Junior and Chaconi at twelve teen Dynasty. Should 241 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: I accept? I still think Lad's probably the best piece, 242 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: but Kurtz is younger, Unos is pretty good. I don't 243 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: know this one. I'm tempted to say Kurtz, but I 244 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: might be just you know, living in a fever Droovener. 245 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 1: I love for the Kurtz. I don't know. 246 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna say no because I think you should 247 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 2: try to sell it off as like unproven long term Kurts, 248 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 2: you should get more than I mean, you're getting one 249 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 2: of the best closers, but like in Dynasty, not really 250 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 2: trying to pay prices for closers. I would be trying 251 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 2: to get it. I'd be open to doing that, by 252 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 2: the way, but I want a different piece, a better 253 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 2: piece with Kurtz, probably a hitter. Maybe it's a better pitcher, but. 254 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna stay with Kurts right now, I'm just looking 255 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: at well, I'm looking at right now. They're numbers, right, 256 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 1: Lad has fifteen homers, Kurts has twenty three. Right, they 257 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 1: have the saving amount of RBI. Vladd has more run 258 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: scored by a good margin. He's got seventy one to 259 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 1: forty seven. But Kurtz did also miss some time there too, 260 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: so only seventy games where laddie'slayed one hundred and eight games. 261 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: So in one hundred and eight games, Vladdie still has 262 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: far less home runs. They're both hitting around three hundred. 263 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: Nick Kurtz is a three seventy six OBP, Vlad has 264 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: four hundred. The slugging for Kurts is just greater, you know, what, No, 265 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: I'm thinking Kurts he's younger. I think Vladd is already 266 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: showing you that, like I think Kurtz is showing you 267 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: that he is basically what Vlad has been doing. This 268 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: version of Lad that like a triple crown winner that 269 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: people were projecting him to be. I don't think he's 270 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: that guy, and I think the Blue Jays might have 271 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: overpaid a little bit for Lad. I'll be honest with you. 272 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: I find Vlad to be a guy who is to me, 273 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,719 Speaker 1: has not reached the potential. Maybe he will in a 274 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: couple of years. Maybe you know, I'm not being patient enough. 275 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: But he's been in the league a while now, and 276 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: Kurtz is already basically with him. So he's already with 277 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: him in his rookie season. What could he be two 278 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: or three years from now? That's how I look at 279 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: that in Dynasty. 280 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 2: I'm a firm disagree on all of that. Vladd is 281 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 2: twenty six years old, that he's hit thirty homers last year, 282 00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 2: like I think Vlad has some internal twenty two. No, 283 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 2: I know he's younger. That's great, you could, but that's 284 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 2: why I said, like, I'm open to this, but I 285 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 2: need another solid piece with Kurtz selling off of a 286 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,199 Speaker 2: Vladimir Guerrero that from an age perspective isn't even into 287 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 2: his prime yet, has shown that he's able to like, okay, 288 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 2: he had a four and a half launch angle at 289 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 2: one point, he's getting the ball in the air, but 290 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 2: then he gets back down into these like bad tendencies, 291 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 2: which is maybe part of the problem, but strikes out 292 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 2: thirty percent of the time, elite batting profile, Like, I 293 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 2: don't even think he's gotten into his prime yet, So 294 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 2: I want to count that and not just count this year. 295 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 2: Especially in a dynasty perspective, it was a lower keeper. 296 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 2: Maybe it's different. You got to get something else with 297 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 2: Kurtz that isn't a closer in Dynasty. So that's where 298 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 2: I'm I agree closing two years from now Kurts could 299 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 2: be massively more valuable because if his batting average sticks 300 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 2: with the homers, I'm open to all of it. It's 301 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 2: just you are dealing with a track record and it's 302 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 2: not like vlat Is thirty one. How you were talking, 303 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 2: it almost sounded like, you know, it's like, what thirty 304 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:58,719 Speaker 2: one years old? What is he going to do? He's 305 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 2: like he's twenty six, twenty six. 306 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: It's crazy. Yeah, it is crazy. He's still just twenty six. 307 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: But again, it's like I've been watching him for a 308 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,719 Speaker 1: while now, and he had the one great year of 309 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 1: forty eight home runs, right that, that one great year 310 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one. Uh, since then, twenty twenty two, 311 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 1: thirty two, twenty six, thirty this year is at fifteen. 312 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: He's on pace for probably about twenty. 313 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 2: Four three twenty three last year with thirty homers. Like, 314 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 2: I think that's pretty good too. 315 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: It is, but I just feel like Kurts is already 316 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: almost there. Like I just think we're all chasing that 317 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: forty eight home run season and I just don't know 318 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: if we're gonna ever get back there. 319 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 2: So but you want to be careful about chasing three 320 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 2: months of a rookie as well when you give away now. 321 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: But he's also just level of an in that draft, 322 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: Like it wasn't like he was like some guy came out, 323 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: I as some seventh round guy that came out of nowhere. Yeaheah, No, 324 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 1: I mean Chris first round talent. Yeah. 325 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 2: I think it's just all like in you're in the vicinity. 326 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 2: It's a really interesting question. And I think a lot 327 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 2: of people are saying Kurtz versus Ladin dynasty, but I 328 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 2: think you should use to your advantage if you are 329 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 2: if you're acquiring Kurts and you're trade only Vlat, you 330 00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 2: should use to your advantage that there is only like 331 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 2: a small Sam small Sam leverage. And yeah, that's what 332 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 2: I want you to do if you're trading off flat 333 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 2: is leverage as much as you can while getting Kurts, 334 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 2: because you know, like Zena's team, they're in the baby 335 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 2: ballpark like thing. Things can change over right. 336 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: We don't know what that Las Vegas ballpark looks like 337 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: in a couple of years. High there potentially, so there's 338 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: a good points there on principle as you get more 339 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: than Munios, I agree. I mean Munas is great, but 340 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 1: he's a closer still. So the Yankees did fortify the bullpen. 341 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 1: We talked about that Bednar and Doval. We have the 342 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: Red Sox getting dust in May. We talked about that. 343 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 1: Then Merril Kelly goes from the Diamondbacks to the Rangers. 344 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: Kind of weird that the Rangers are buyers, but I 345 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: don't know whatever. Okay, h the twits you. 346 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 2: See too, But before you go past that real quick. 347 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 2: First off, there was a I think it was Mike Gonzalez, 348 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 2: who is a reporter, got hacked and someone had put 349 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 2: out that the Mets were acquiring a Dolus Garcia. It 350 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 2: created this like it was like, hey, is are the 351 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 2: the Rangers sellers? And they weren't. They ended up getting 352 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 2: Meryl Kelly, which Bob you tweet actually, yeah, well because 353 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 2: I think I had sent it to him too, Meryl 354 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 2: three two era. I think he's gonna do very well there. 355 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 2: It's a better I think it's a better fantasy destination 356 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 2: essentially at this point, like I'm in on that and 357 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 2: a slight note, I'm gonna talk about this on my 358 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 2: Prospect show. But that was the only good trade the 359 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 2: Diamondbacks did because the three pitchers they got all dudes, 360 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 2: And I tweeted about this. The lowest guy that got 361 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 2: David Hageman I saw pitch earlier this year. He's a beast. 362 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 2: He is, like they just drafted him the past year. 363 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 2: He is an absolute beast. 364 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: Four draft man. The gift that just keeps on giving 365 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 1: it really is. 366 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, man, Hageman is an absolute guy. So they got 367 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 2: three really really good pieces for Meryl Kelly. That was 368 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 2: their only win of the trade deadline. So from a 369 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 2: dynasty perspective, Cole Drake and Mitch bratt At might be 370 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 2: guys to look out in the Diamondbacks rotation next year. 371 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 2: Hageman is a great dynasty option, but Meryl love him 372 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 2: going to the Rangers. 373 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a good deal for the Rangers. Now we 374 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: talked about pride of my high school. You were, you 375 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: were the guy at the forefront of this. Toash Bradley, 376 00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: he needs to get delt somewhere and maybe something will happen. Well, 377 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: the Twins, they're gonna take that chance. They dealt him 378 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: to the Twins from the Rays. Griffin Jacks was in 379 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 1: that deal. Also, Alan Roden and Kendrey Rojas from the 380 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: Blue Jays go to the Twins as well. For Louis 381 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: Varlin and ty Franz, Adrian Hauser went to the Rays. 382 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: So that was interesting. I thought, howser get up a 383 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 1: lot of teams. I thought it was kind of interesting. 384 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: Pepio at a bad start yesterday, so little tricky there, 385 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 1: so maybe he's hitting a little fatigue window. That's possible, 386 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: But that one was kind of like, oh wow, interesting. 387 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: I love this move for the Rays. I think Howser's 388 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: a great addition for them. 389 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 2: And the White Sox got Curtis Meade back. Yeah, that's 390 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 2: like that's the blueprint for rentals. If you're a garbage team, 391 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 2: you get these guys, you hope they do what Hawser 392 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 2: did and then you get worthwhile prospect. It's not like 393 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 2: the Pirates signing Tommy fam and not selling him, or 394 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 2: Andrew Haney and not selling them. I thought it was 395 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 2: a really good get. The Rays are really very razy 396 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 2: in how they treated the trade deadly, you know what 397 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 2: I mean, Like nothing was sexy or flash. But they're like, 398 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 2: we'll take Howser, We'll go take Griffin Jacks, like they 399 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,439 Speaker 2: just did these little razy type of things, which you know, 400 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 2: ultimately we sit here and talk about the Yankees and 401 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 2: the Red Sox and stuff in the Blue Jays, and 402 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 2: it's like the Rays will be super annoying and like 403 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 2: they'll win this division with just a bunch of a 404 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 2: bunch of these guys. But they may have just lost 405 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 2: to Ronda and Yondi Diaz also got hurt. 406 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 1: Yeah about Ronda injury did not look great. Packers fan 407 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,439 Speaker 1: Sean Splash and Brody t K appreciate you guys following 408 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: us and McGrady just resub with Prime B like McGrady 409 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 1: resub with Prime and I think we've got it now 410 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,199 Speaker 1: the graphic for the new giveaway, so we'll announce on 411 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 1: Monday probably who the winner of the Onongans Allos jersey is.

Billy Wagner Jersey 432 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: Brewers acquired Jordan Montgomery and Shelby Miller for the Diamondbacks 433 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: for a player to be named later.

No, nothing, just 444 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: just I think, and I said that I would let 445 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 1: everybody know if he was right about anything, and of 446 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: course he was wrong about everything. 447 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 2: Again record so quick, funny story. So I had this 448 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 2: appointment yesterday Donna Scottsdale ended even a little bit earlier 449 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 2: and the Bridge League was it for your Yeah, clearly 450 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 2: I had to go down to get shaved. It was 451 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 2: actually a mental health check to shave off the beard, 452 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 2: to deal with life. So early in the morning, Scottsdale's 453 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 2: far get done with it. And what's in Scottsdale is 454 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 2: Salt River Fields, the Bridge League, which is like rookie 455 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 2: balls out here. So I'm like, I'm going to go 456 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 2: check out the game that's over there because maybe we 457 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 2: would see Ethan Holiday Rockies. Well, guess what. I go 458 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 2: out there. I see Ethan Holiday playing as a Rocky. 459 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 2: I got video for it. Caseon Cunningham I talked to 460 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 2: he's the Diamondbacks first round pick. Jordan Lawler is rehabbing 461 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 2: in the game. I saw Corbin Burns, I saw all 462 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 2: the rehab guys, saw all the like crazy stuff going on. 463 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 2: Gabby Moreno very fun to be over there. Got some 464 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 2: cool video. Go on my Twitter to check it out. 465 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 2: But here's the story. Shelby Miller's out there and he's 466 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 2: training and he's throwing. He goes over to a side field. 467 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 2: This is on the backfields of the Diamondbacks complex. He 468 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 2: comes back out and with a couple of people I 469 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 2: know in that world, and he goes in, he comes 470 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 2: out and he's got a big old Duffel bag and 471 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 2: he starts hugging guys, and someone I know we look, 472 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 2: We're like, dude, Shelby musta just got traded. He's hugging players. 473 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 2: Peven Smith was out there working at first base, by 474 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 2: the way, and he walks by. They give a little pound. 475 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 2: Shelby Miller walks out. Usually guys don't have a big 476 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 2: duffle bag when they leave. So I'm like, oh, man, 477 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 2: this would be funny. Don't know if he got traded. 478 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 2: We'll see trade deadline passes. Shelby Miller doesn't get traded. 479 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 2: So Bogman and I are doing a live stream and 480 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,400 Speaker 2: I tell this story and I'm like, man, I really 481 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 2: thought I was gonna be able to break some news. 482 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 2: And he didn't get traded. Five minutes later, they announced, 483 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 2: twenty minutes after the deadline that Shelby Miller had in 484 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 2: fact been traded with Jordan Monk for nothing. Just literally 485 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 2: just save us a couple bucks. But it was a 486 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 2: very funny experience being at a field on trade deadline day. 487 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 2: All the young prospects were talking about the trade deadline, 488 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 2: and they were rumor milling about it, talking about the Mets. 489 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,439 Speaker 2: Cedric Mullins got traded but being there while players are 490 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 2: a little edgy. Peven Smith was a little bit edgy, 491 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 2: and Shelby got traded, but he knew three or four 492 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 2: hours before anything was announced after the deadline. I know 493 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 2: it doesn't have a big whatever. I just thought it 494 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 2: was an interesting story of like duffel Bag hugging dudes 495 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 2: and then four hours later he's traded for actually literally nothing. 496 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: Well a player to be named later, So you don't 497 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: know who that. 498 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 2: Players were like, they didn't get anything. It's not it's 499 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 2: gonna be cash. It's just cash. 500 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: The Tigers made their big move. Charlie Morton, Ough, God 501 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: Miguel and Harr went to the Reds. Matt Manning went 502 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: to the Phillies, which I thought was interesting, you know, 503 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 1: once upon a time one of the top prospects in 504 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 1: that system. And then some of the new guys, the 505 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 1: newly acquired were making some impacts. Yesterday, a small slate 506 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: of game, very very small. Ueno Suarez double scored a 507 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 1: run and went for the Mariners, and can Brian Hayes 508 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: won for four to hit three run home run. Look 509 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 1: at him go against the Braves. Oh the Braves. Transactions 510 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: yesterday not trade related, the Cubs designated Ryan Presley for assignment. Wow, 511 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 1: what a what a failed experiment that was. We got 512 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: a couple of months of Ryan Presley. He was supposed 513 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: to be the closer. He went from supposedly the closer 514 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: to gone by August first. That's quite a whirlwin for 515 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: Ryan Presley. 516 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,239 Speaker 2: Cub I think there's a big plus I noted this. 517 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 2: I think Daniel Plincia it's a big plus for him 518 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 2: because Porter Hodge got reactivated and sent down. They kicked 519 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 2: Ryan Presley to the to the curb. I think all 520 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 2: that did was they just solidified like Plentcy as their guy. 521 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 2: They got a couple guys to you know, just end 522 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 2: up being that protection, but nobody that's going to take 523 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,679 Speaker 2: the job from him. So the Presley move to me 524 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 2: was like, wow, they are just fully committed to him 525 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 2: as the closer. So in a fantasy perspective, I thought, he, 526 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 2: you know, got like a really big boost from the 527 00:23:58,640 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 2: deadline as well. 528 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,719 Speaker 1: All this is done for me, This entire trade deadline 529 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: is reinforced my closer theory going into any draft now, 530 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: which is I literally don't care. I'm just gonna take 531 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:11,120 Speaker 1: the closers wherever I can that are cheap at the end, 532 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: the turnover, the injuries, the bad performance, the trade deadline 533 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: opening up, the last two months for saves to catch up. 534 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: If you are speculating in bullpens properly, it's just no 535 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: need for it. It just isn't anymore. And I don't know, 536 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: that's been my approach. And then the more shadow of 537 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: the league, the more I'm apt to do that. If 538 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: you're in a deeper league, what has mandatory RP spots, 539 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 1: it's a little different. Then I'm a little bit more 540 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: apt to, you know, be aware of least grabbing one 541 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 1: guy that I think, Okay, this is a real closer, 542 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 1: who's going to hang in there all year long. But 543 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: if it's wide open and it's a I mean, I 544 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: just think about all the guys and all the leagues. 545 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: I mean this year that I've cycled through, the Vests, 546 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 1: the Bednars, the Fairbanks, the Ronnie and Riquez is like 547 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,439 Speaker 1: the Palencia's a role as chatman. Nobody wanted. I drafted 548 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,159 Speaker 1: him late in a bunch of leagues. It's just funny 549 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: to me, like it's just the value is just not 550 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: worth taking over position players or starting pitchers in my 551 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: opinion anymore. 552 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,680 Speaker 2: I definitely I think I'm always going to kind of 553 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 2: stick because I play in a lot of ARP man 554 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,159 Speaker 2: even if it's not an ARP mandatory. If it's like 555 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 2: Rodo and I want to get on staves, I get 556 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 2: one guy and it really sometimes it does not work 557 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 2: out for me. Two years ago it didn't, but this 558 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 2: year it did because who was my guy Andres Munios 559 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 2: and he's been incredible, so that worked out. But it's like, 560 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,439 Speaker 2: give me one of those guys who's not an elite player, 561 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 2: and then bottom Barrel just you know, live in the mud, 562 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 2: you know, dance around during the waiver wire and stuff 563 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 2: like this. I mean, in the last three days, Cade 564 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 2: Smith probably jumps into being a top ten closer, but 565 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 2: that's a gambling issue. And then like Randy Rodriguez, as 566 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 2: Lucis put in here, like Deval getting traded doesn't look 567 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 2: like Ryan Walker would be Randy Rodriguez legitimately if he 568 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 2: becomes the full set closer for them, dude might be 569 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 2: a top ten, top twelve closer as well. So like 570 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 2: we had so many jobs changed to your point yesterday, 571 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 2: and a couple very significant. I think Kyle Finnigan, by 572 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,439 Speaker 2: the way, yeah, way up as the Tigers close did 573 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 2: get it? 574 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: Is huge, yes, sir. No al Contra, no Robert, no 575 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: Edward Cabrera. Right. The Marlins held true pretty much. It's 576 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 1: kind of surprising, like some of the guys that we 577 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 1: thought going into the year were absolutely gonna get traded 578 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 1: did not. 579 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 2: So. 580 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: And those were like the big two, especially al Contra 581 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 1: and Robert, those were the big two. Why that didn't happen, 582 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: I can't tell you. And maybe the Marlins see themselves 583 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: with stours all of a sudden, when this pitching staff 584 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: get being you know, hey, we're a third place team. 585 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: Maybe we can like, you know, find our way to 586 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 1: the playoffs next year. I think it's false advertising. I 587 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 1: think they're out of their mind. But I get it. 588 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: They've been bad for so long. Maybe they're trying to 589 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,679 Speaker 1: show something to the fan base. Maybe you know that 590 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: I just couldn't get what they wanted to. So I 591 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: don't know. By the way, Funk, Uncle Funkel just followed us. 592 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 2: So dude, I thought I was going to throw that. 593 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 1: Up, you knit. 594 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,400 Speaker 2: I actually smirked about thirty seconds ago, looking at that name, 595 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 2: being like, my god, please don't try to say that. 596 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: I said it. 597 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,120 Speaker 2: This is your this is your swan song show you're 598 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 2: gonna go out with. 599 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: Well, we just got flagged, I'm sure because of it. 600 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 1: All right, let's go a little three up and three down. 601 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: Ozzie Albi's four for six with a double, two run scored. 602 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 1: George Kirby struck out six and six innings, and Cal 603 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: Rawley I got him. I got him for a home 604 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: run call yesterday. Yeay got one on the way out. Thanks, 605 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: everybody hit a solo home run six nothing when there 606 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: for the ms the downs. Kumar Rocker got the loss yesterday, 607 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: three runs, four and two thirds. Andrew Abbott, no decision 608 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 1: for him, one of the rare struggle bus ones for him. 609 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: Wasn't terrible. This wasn't a lot of games yesterday, so 610 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: don't take it personally. Andrew. Normally you wouldn't have made 611 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:35,959 Speaker 1: this list, but he didn't have a lot to go on. 612 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 1: And then Ryan Peppio season high seven runs, four innings. 613 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 1: This is the dreadful game for him. Peppio has been 614 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: a little off lately. Do you I think it's fatigue. 615 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: What do you think it might be? 616 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean maybe that kind of seems right, I'm not. 617 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,239 Speaker 1: I mean right around one hundred and twenty innings, like 618 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: it's just like, yeah, this is kind of what we're 619 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: gonna do, right, like, this is it? 620 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 2: Okay? Yeah, I see how you were saying that. I 621 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 2: guess I was gonna like counter and to be like, yeah, 622 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 2: I guess you could say fatigue, but I was going 623 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:01,639 Speaker 2: to be like, but it might be innings, which you 624 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 2: meant the exact same thing. Yeah, he had one hundred 625 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 2: and thirty last year. He had one hundred dogs first 626 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 2: today and he's got yeah, exactly, has gotten point one 627 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 2: more innings than he had last season. So yeah, you're 628 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 2: pressing up against like, you know, probably his limits also 629 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 2: might have been why you know, you get more bullpen help. 630 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,159 Speaker 2: I think it's it is interesting all the teams that 631 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 2: went out and acquired multiple relief pitchers in this you 632 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 2: kind of could maybe see scenarios or build a scenario 633 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 2: that the starters that they have, they might really want 634 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 2: them to start only going five something to watch. I 635 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 2: could kill quality start leagues. I'm not saying it's going 636 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 2: to happen. But you don't want your starters to be 637 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 2: pushing innings. Maybe you know, maybe some of these, like 638 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 2: a guy like Pepio, maybe you need to push them 639 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 2: like under ninety on each start just to kind of 640 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 2: keep them healthy. So I'm not one hundred percent sure, 641 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 2: but they traded away one depth guy in Bradley, and 642 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 2: Pepio's kind of tapering back and they've been babing Rasmus 643 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 2: and be very interesting to see. But is that something 644 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 2: that makes you want to get off of Ryan Pepio 645 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 2: in fantasy right now? 646 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: No, but it does have me a little concerned, and 647 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: I think, you know, it's just something to be aware of. 648 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 3: Now. 649 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: It's also the sav they play the Yankees, so you 650 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: can also talk up to that small ballpark all that 651 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: fun stuff, but you know, just something to be aware 652 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: of more. I'll tell you what, I didn't start him 653 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: this week in my home league because it was against 654 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 1: the Yankees and that fall process looked to be correct. 655 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 1: Red Sox had two injuries Hunter Dobbins of the sixty 656 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 1: day IL and ten or how to the sixty day 657 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: IL two, which brings us to the best bets of 658 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: the day with Joey p and the Welsh, I'm gonna 659 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: start here with the Baltimore Orioles today. That's right, Trevor 660 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: Rodgers on the mound, and I don't care if the 661 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 1: Cubs made some moves. I'm going against the Cubs today. 662 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: Take that Wonky Penguin Baltimore money line plus one twenty. 663 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: Trevor Rodgers has been spectacular, So I'm gonna continue to 664 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: roll with Trevor Rodgers. Be confident in him on the 665 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: money line plus money guests, please, San Diego Padres on 666 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: the run line with all those new fun pieces, minus 667 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: one and a half. You get this at plus one 668 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: thirty four. Nick Pavetta on the mound against the Cardinals 669 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: they stink. And then the New York Yankees. I'm gonna 670 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: push that run line, Welsh. I'm gonna push my to 671 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: minus two and a half because Carlos Rodan is going 672 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: against the junk man himself, and I think that the 673 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 1: Yankees can beat up on the Marlins a little bit, 674 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 1: especially now Sanchez has been traded too. It's on the 675 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: big piece out of that lineup. So those are my 676 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: best bets of the day, Welsh. How about you? 677 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 2: All right, well, let's jump into it. I am going 678 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 2: to back the Brewers. I'm going to back the Brewers 679 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 2: through where did I have it? I have the Brewers 680 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 2: through the first five. We're gonna take the run lines. 681 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 2: So this is simply through the first five innings, the 682 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 2: Brewers are going to be leading. They're gonna have at 683 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 2: least one run. This is about minus one twenty. Mitchell 684 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 2: Parker's got almost five ERA. Washington has been tapering in 685 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 2: the wrong direction. King Tana has a three and a 686 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 2: half ERA. He's been very solid. You know, we're gonna 687 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 2: have to see how this team plays without Churio here. 688 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 2: But I really like this situation, specifically because this is 689 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 2: going up against the Nationals. I'm also going to back 690 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 2: the Cleveland Guardians. Probably the little uncomfortable seeing their name 691 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 2: and a line next to it on a betting segment, 692 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 2: but I am going to take them with Gavin Williams. 693 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 2: Guardians are going up against the Twins. It is Joe Ryan, 694 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 2: but Twins are messy right now. They lost Correa. There's 695 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 2: just a whole bunch of the bullpen is obviously decimated. 696 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 2: I don't trust outside of what Joe Ryan's going to 697 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 2: do much of anything. But that's also why we're jumping 698 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 2: into the full game, so full game money line for Cleveland. 699 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 2: You still got Jose Ramirez got kwon, he didn't get traded, 700 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 2: and you know what perfect tag to give you. 701 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 1: Guys. 702 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 2: Make sure you download the Betting Pros app because look, 703 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 2: I'm also taking San Diego run line minus one and 704 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 2: a half. Why do you do it? 705 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: Well? 706 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 2: First off, you have right there.

So everyone 796 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 1: who used to watch record highs on YouTube for us 797 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,360 Speaker 1: and subscribers and for views this year were crushing. It 798 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,800 Speaker 1: is because of everybody who's part of this little cult community, 799 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: which I love and I love that it's growing. And 800 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 1: for us to keep growing it, we had to move 801 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: the live somewhere else because the live every day on 802 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: YouTube was hurting the numbers. So that's something we've got to, 803 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 1: you know, We've got to do for business. And I'm 804 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,399 Speaker 1: so happy that we didn't lose our audience. In fact, 805 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,880 Speaker 1: we grew our audience, and I think that is really terrific. 806 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 1: I won't miss Jack lighter at all.

But you know it's that time of year, 810 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 1: so I begrudgingly. You know, I'm gonna have to get 811 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 1: pulled off the Baseball Show. But I will say this, 812 00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 1: I appreciate all the Peanuts and the Cracker Jacks. I 813 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 1: love what we've done in baseball this year. The short 814 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:05,720 Speaker 1: form show has been amazing. Working with Welsh is always amazing, 815 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,360 Speaker 1: Joe Rico is amazing, our producer team, Seth and Callie amazing, 816 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 1: Ethan doing graphics. It takes a lot of people to 817 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: do this show. And of course all of the Peanuts 818 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 1: and Cracker Jacks hanging out was every single day. So 819 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 1: we want to just brighten your day with little baseball 820 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 1: talk every single day, and that was our goal and 821 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 1: I think that we've done that, whether it's fantasy wagering, 822 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: just having fun. I'm very very I'm so proud of 823 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 1: what we've done because they told us it couldn't be done. Welsh. 824 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, and we do it differently. We did differently than 825 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:34,719 Speaker 2: what we do here at fantasy pros.
