Get it going today, ladies and gentlemen, we 21 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:13,639 Speaker 1: have breaking news. The nation's long wait has officially ended. 22 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: Bubba Chandler is coming to the majors in a relief role. 23 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: Joe Rico, how excited are you for relief pitching Bubba Chandler. 24 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,559 Speaker 2: I tweeted this myself about twenty minutes ago. I feel 25 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 2: like Chris Farley in the Folgers snl skit because at 26 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 2: first you're like, Oh, he's coming up, and then he's 27 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 2: going to pitch in the bullpen. It's really a buzzkill. Man. 28 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,039 Speaker 2: I don't know what they're doing. I fed it on. 29 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 2: I forget if it was Monday show or one of 30 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 2: the shows last week that I picked him up in 31 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: my home league to stash him hoping for something like this. 32 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 2: But if he's pitching in relief, he's pretty useless to everybody. 33 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 2: The thing that I'm kind of wondering about is they 34 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 2: said he's going to make his debut on Friday, but 35 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 2: it doesn't look like he's going to start on Friday 36 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 2: necessarily because of all this bullpen stuff. So I don't 37 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 2: even know what to make of it right now. 38 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 1: Man, there's a lot I think, Yeah, there we go. 39 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: We got the beautiful graphic Bubba Chandler from sources to official. 40 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: I believe the Pirates put it out there the Pirates 41 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: are selecting the contract of Bubba Chandler, and you're right. 42 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: They said Friday, and we're like, holy crap, you know 43 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: you gave us a date. It lines up. We're going 44 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: to get the pitching going and a womp. I think 45 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: they're just planning that he's going to be in relief 46 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: now at the end of graphic, yeah, graphic via email 47 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: in my MLB dot com. Sorry, having a stroke there, 48 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: Like why why I will? There's a lot of things 49 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: to unpack here because I tweeted this right before the 50 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: show and then things popped up, and then like I 51 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 1: went away, and then right before the show started, it 52 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: was like five minutes for the show, and then I 53 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: looked I had a million notifications and I'm like, what happened? 54 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: I forgot I had just tweeted it. Every single response 55 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: is boo, Pirates, unbelievable? Can you even do this? What 56 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 1: are we talking about? And then the big question is 57 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: is even worth picking up? And maybe that person didn't 58 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: see the note here, So let's just go through a 59 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 1: little bit of this. A This is obviously load management. 60 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: You know, he's pitched an entire season in TRIPAA, so 61 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: no shocker that they're not comfortable with him getting a 62 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: bunch of innings. There is no way that he can 63 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: lose prospect eligibility. So I also kind of don't understand this. 64 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: But maybe the early relief thing is only like a 65 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: one or two off. And the reason I'm saying that 66 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: is they have done their best job of kind of 67 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: messing him up all year and getting him uncomfortable and inconsistent. 68 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: Maybe this is like the early onset of this with 69 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: relief is just about having him have one or two 70 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: relief roles and then they're gonna let him jump into 71 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: like a start or two. Because over his last three 72 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: starts in August so far he's pitched on the fifth, 73 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: the tenth, and the sixteenth. He has failed to go 74 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: five innings. In any of those starts. He has given 75 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: up ten earned runs. In the month of August, He's 76 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: walked eight. He struck out. Man, my eyes are going 77 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: I struck out? Was that fifteen fifteen in there? That's 78 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: not good. He's given up six or more hits and 79 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: all three of those starts where he's failed to even 80 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: go five innings that reeks of a relief pitcher Arika 81 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,799 Speaker 1: like that reeks of someone you don't want to throw 82 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,679 Speaker 1: into the fire right now. And the epidemic all season 83 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: long has been him going deep into games. And I 84 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: said that I'm comfortable doing this because I said this, 85 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: or at least I'm comfortable being like I told you so, 86 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: I said this like three weeks ago or a month. 87 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: I don't even care at this point if Bubba Chandler 88 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: got called up. I care in the sense that it's fun, 89 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 1: but I don't care from a fantasy perspective. I wouldn't 90 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 1: even want to really start him in fantasy. So the 91 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: question is is would you pick him up? No what, 92 00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: I picked him up even if he was a starter. 93 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you, not if my season was 94 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: on the line, because he's not been able to go deep. 95 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 1: He still has a walk problem. It's the pirates. They 96 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: can't get wins for Paul Skeins. So this is all great, 97 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: fine and dandy in fun, but he is not fantasy relevant. 98 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: Do you feel any different, even if it's in a 99 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: long relief role that could lead to like a starter 100 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: or two. Is it something you said you had him 101 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 1: in a bunch of leagues, I have no interest. 102 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 2: I drafted him in TGFBI and he's been on my 103 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 2: bench for the entire season because I just was never 104 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 2: able to actually drop him. So here's the thing that's 105 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 2: really annoying. He would if he were to start on 106 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 2: Friday the way that it looked like he should have, 107 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 2: it would have been versus the Rockies away from Cores, 108 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 2: followed by Saint Louis, who is also a pretty bad 109 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 2: offense right now. So I don't really know, like if 110 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 2: it's confirmed or not, what's happening on Friday, because the 111 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 2: Pirates don't have a listed starter for Friday. I know 112 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: there's all the talk about relief stuff. Maybe he does 113 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 2: start on Friday, or maybe it's a piggyback roll so 114 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 2: somebody comes in as an opener. Chandler pitches four or 115 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 2: five innings after Yess, which would make it a lot 116 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 2: of you year for him to vulture wins, you know. 117 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 2: So I don't think that it's fully a write off 118 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 2: that he can't have value, But for right now, I 119 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,359 Speaker 2: think most players don't need to really be concerned, like 120 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 2: you mentioned, as the Pirates, they're not going to win 121 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 2: a ton of games. He has struggled recently. I think 122 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 2: the struggles are due to him just being bored and 123 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 2: fed up with how they've treated him, to be perfectly honest, 124 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 2: but that doesn't mean that things are going to automatically 125 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 2: be fixed against major league hitters right away. So I 126 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: think in shallower leagues you probably don't need to worry 127 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 2: about this. But if you're in like a deeper league 128 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 2: and you're desperate for pitching, I don't I don't hate it. 129 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 2: I don't hate waiting for a week or two just 130 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 2: to see if he gets a spot in the rotation. 131 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I do want to point out this news 132 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: literally came out five minutes before the show, so like 133 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 1: things could change. We saw a report because all the 134 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: big tweets are he's coming up to make He's coming 135 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 1: up and making his debut on Friday, which feels starry. 136 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 1: Then there's a couple of reports that say he is 137 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: going to be in relief, in a long relief role. 138 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: That's also being thrown out there. So there's a multitude 139 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: of things that could happen. Like you said, Bubba could 140 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: start the game and only go four innings, you could 141 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: they could have someone go than other two innings and 142 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 1: then he could jump in. There's a lot of possibilities 143 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 1: that we just don't really have the information here the 144 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: one counter to what all I just built up to say, 145 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: like it is against the Rockies and it's what not 146 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: in quarters? Like those are two really good pieces of 147 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: why it could be awesome. Would I be shocked if 148 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: he pulled a Max Scherzer in his debut? Remember Max 149 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: Serser with the Diamondbacks went like four innings, struck out eight, 150 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: Like that's a possibility, But you know what the warts are? 151 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: You know what with some of the risks are in general. 152 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: I also wanted to pull this up and I put 153 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: this on our show sheet just to let you guys 154 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: kind of know what the stuff has looked like on 155 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: average in Triple A because we get the data and 156 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: year over year he has a full increase on his fastball. 157 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: He's still pumping that thing around ninety eight. This was 158 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: graded out as the best fastball in all the minor 159 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: leagues by many people. Baseball America I think was the 160 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: number one. 161 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 2: That had it. 162 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: Fastball is up. He's throwing his slider a lot less, 163 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: but he's throwing it harder. He threw at eighty six 164 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: point eight last year in triple it's up to eighty 165 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: eight point two. But he's cut eight percent usage down. 166 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: He's thrown his change up a little bit more, and 167 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: he's throwing a tiny bit more of a curveball. Maybe 168 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: all of this is a learning curve, as he is 169 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: throwing harder and altering his stuff right now, but it 170 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: is still big, powerful stuff. And even if he just 171 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: came out here and was throwing, you know, ninety mile 172 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: an hour sliders in ninety nine mile an hour fastballs 173 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: to the Rockies, we know exactly what they're gonna do. 174 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: They're gonna you know, they're gonna swing with. That's what's 175 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: gonna happen. So the good and the bad Bubba Chandler 176 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:34,079 Speaker 1: is officially here. Our nation's long awaited call up has happened. 177 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: But will it amount to anything, I don't know. And 178 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,839 Speaker 1: I think people still feel like brick, like would you 179 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: drop jack lighter for Bubba Chandler. I think there's still 180 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: like a want for him to be out there. I 181 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: have extremely low expectations for Bubba if you want. 182 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 2: To do it. 183 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: But you know, maybe they do give us a little 184 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: bit more of a peek and treat this like a start. 185 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: I think strikeouts are high potential, but like I think 186 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: Bubba is a dude where he gets into the third 187 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: inning and things are just gonna fall apart, like he's 188 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: gonna Like if I'd give you a line, I would say, 189 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 1: he goes three innings, he strikes out five and he 190 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: walks three, and he probably gives up three hund runs. 191 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: Like that's what I feel like, we're gonna get out 192 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: above it. But you know what, we thought Misrowski might 193 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: be more relief when he got fled first called up 194 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: and he looked absolutely elite. 195 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:19,559 Speaker 2: Are we go? 196 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: So there you go? It is official. 197 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 2: The only thing for me was like, they're gonna take 198 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 2: it easy with the innings. He's had one hundred innings 199 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 2: for the year. He was at one nineteen last year. 200 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 2: There's no reason he couldn't make five or six starts 201 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 2: and go five innings. You know, like, there's no need 202 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 2: to do this. They're doing this because of whatever reason. 203 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 2: But it's not like, oh, well, he's at the tippy 204 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 2: top of innings, he can't go another single inning or else. 205 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 2: He's like he has a little bit of room here. 206 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 2: He could go twenty five thirty innings without risking injury 207 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 2: at least. I think I'm far from a doctor. But 208 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 2: he's had one hundred innings for the year. You know, 209 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 2: it doesn't seem like a I don't. 210 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: Think it's an injury necessarily issue. I think it's a 211 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: he has not been good and not been the guy. 212 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,239 Speaker 2: But like, who are they rolling out there, Braxton Ashcraft, 213 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 2: Mike Burrows. You know, like they only have four starters 214 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 2: listed in their current rotation right now, which is the 215 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 2: funniest thing for me. It's like you have space for 216 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 2: a fifth starter. Nope, bubb about you're pitching in the 217 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 2: seventh inning. It's pretty funny stuff. 218 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, there you go, Bubba Chandler. We can take 219 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: that off here. Bubba Chandler coming to the majors and 220 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: maybe to a team near you if you've if you're 221 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: willing to make the risk, some big boy updates. Aaron 222 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: Judge two for five, hit his fortieth home run of 223 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: the season. Yankees also just put it on, by the way. 224 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: Jean Carlos Stanton Homer twice, hose A Caballero Hobart twice. 225 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: Hose Caballero has been a sneaky fantasy guy all season. 226 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: I remember a long time ago on this show we 227 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: talked about, you know, picking him up. I think it 228 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: might have been over some pretty relevant players. I think 229 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: one of them was like someone was so sick of 230 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: Ozzie Albi's and it was like, listen, cabal Erro is 231 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,559 Speaker 1: still on all these bases, but Cavero is still going Joe. 232 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 2: Thirty nine steals, only four homers, But this is exactly 233 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 2: what you thought you were getting when you drafted him, 234 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 2: if you did draft him right, because last year forty 235 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 2: four stolen bases, nine homers. He's gonna fall short in 236 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 2: the homers, but he's got the batting average up ever 237 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 2: so slightly. He's totally serviceable for what he does. He's 238 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 2: just free stolen bases that you could have got the 239 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 2: whole year off the waiver wire pretty much. I'm not 240 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 2: looking at his roster rates for Yahoo and all that, 241 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 2: but it's got to be like fifteen percent if you 242 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 2: need steels. He's still a decent pickup. I think. 243 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: One hundred percent. All right, Other Big Boys stuff show, Hey, 244 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: Otani won for five with another homer. I believe that 245 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,079 Speaker 1: was forty four, so we have judge at forty Otania 246 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: forty four. What is it? Cal is at forty seven 247 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: and Shorby is is at forty four? Does that sound right? 248 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: Is that where the current race is? 249 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 2: I mean pull it up real Quok forty seven for 250 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 2: Rawley forty four and forty four Shore bren Otani forty 251 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 2: for Judge and Auhanio at thirty eight. 252 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: Anio, Oh, the power kind of depressed when he went 253 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: to seeah, is that crazy? Isn't that crazy that it 254 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: wasn't like a big, awesome offensive boon? If only, if 255 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: only we big pitching performance is Trike Scooble bounce back 256 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: off of what was like a little eh and had 257 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: a ten strikeout performance. I kind of want as because 258 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: if you know, I have my season long Garrett Crochet 259 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 1: leading the league in strikeout bet and I believe after 260 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: Schooble's last game into Crochet's next, he had like a 261 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: five or six strikeout lead, and now that would be 262 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: no lead because Trake Schouble just had ten. So these 263 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: two were just like boom boom. They're battling it back 264 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 1: and forth, and I need Scooble to take a rest 265 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 1: because Zach Wheeler is now out of that market. But 266 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: Trike Scouble continues to do it and owns the al 267 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: cy Young in the al Yes. In the NL, Chris 268 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: Sanchez struck out twelve six and one thirds two run 269 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: ball on Tuesday. You know, the only thing I wanted 270 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: to say. I got asked this question on a CBS 271 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 1: hit that I did, and they said, is Paul Skin's 272 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: deserving of the cy Young? And I was like, you know, 273 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna definitely say I might I say no, 274 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: because like, I have a hard time, as I've said 275 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: a long time ago, that a guy that has nine 276 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: wins or whatever he has seven right now winning the 277 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: sign is weird. But also pointing out Chris Sanchez at 278 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: that time, this was like three days ago, was within 279 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: half of a point of war of Paul Skeens. And 280 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: if you looked at Sierra or x FIP, Sanchez was 281 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: better than because everyone's like, oh, well, you know, Skeens 282 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 1: is the da da da da da. It's like, you know, 283 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,679 Speaker 1: he's got the two point whatever era. Dude, Chris Sanchez 284 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 1: had a better Sierra than him, strikeouts, walks, it's all 285 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: the same. He has way more wins. There is a 286 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: case that Chris Sanchez should be given this, he just won't. 287 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: Like I feel like absolutely confident in that he will 288 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: not get this. I really do think this award should 289 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: be way closer, because now that Wheelers out, it was 290 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 1: like Skeens minus four hundred, Sanchez was around three to one, 291 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: and then the next closest was Matthew Boyd at like 292 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: twenty need a one. 293 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 2: Let me go, Matthew Boyd, great season, but Matthew Boyd 294 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 2: Like that's it's a two man race essentially, is what 295 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 2: they're telling you with that, But it's pretty much a 296 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 2: one man race. I think it should be a lot closer. Like, 297 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 2: like you mentioned, every metric between them is almost exactly 298 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 2: the same. The sierra three to zero six versus three sixteen, 299 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 2: the strikeout rate twenty six point six twenty eight point eight. 300 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 2: Skeins has him slightly beat there, and he has him 301 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 2: slightly beat with the whip excuse me at point ninety six. 302 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 2: Like that sub one whip might be what gets it done. 303 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 2: But then the voters might look and say, well, Skeins 304 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 2: has seven wins. I don't think the wins should even 305 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 2: factor into it a little bit. I don't. I think 306 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,359 Speaker 2: they're completely irrelevant in today's game in terms of evaluating 307 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 2: a pitcher. But a lot of the voters are still 308 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 2: the old school crowd, and they are gonna look and 309 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 2: see you all. He has eight wins, so maybe he 310 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 2: doesn't get it. I don't have a really strong feel 311 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 2: on who is more deserving. I think that if it 312 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 2: goes to either of them, I'd be totally fine with it. 313 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 2: But it's gonna go to Skins. 314 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I know what you're saying, because like 315 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: the I mean, that's why Sierra is as interesting, you know, skills, independent, 316 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: er er. Like if you're looking at wins specifically, it's 317 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: like that guy doesn't necessarily have them in control. But 318 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: at the same token, like I feel like we give 319 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: a plus to a player that has a bunch of 320 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Freddy Peult's fifteen wins, he should probably get 321 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: some consideration into this as well. I think it should 322 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 1: all be considered. I don't think that's why, Like, I'm 323 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: not being dismissive that Paul Skins doesn't deserve it, But 324 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: when someone's like, is he the no doubt and you're 325 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: comfortable with it, It's like, I don't know, man, Like, 326 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: if you give me, there's got to be some differentiating 327 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: factor and if you look and you go, well, this 328 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: guy played on a absolute garbage team. He got nine wins. 329 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: And then you come over here to this guy that 330 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: has like a better Sierra baseline stats that are right 331 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: there on a team that is going to make a 332 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: playoff run. They were critical to it, and the guy 333 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 1: is like eighteen wins. Like, I think you can piece 334 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 1: those things together. And I don't think it'd be a 335 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: travesty if a guy like Chris Sanchez won it over 336 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: Paul's skin. I mean, you think people are gonna be 337 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: writing in the streets like, oh, get rid of wins 338 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: because Skeens didn't win it. Like, no, I don't think so. 339 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 2: Pirates suck, Pirates suck. I have it in my bio 340 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 2: on Twitter, how much I love Christopher Sanchez. I put 341 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 2: it in there a few months ago, like, I absolutely 342 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 2: love the guy. When I look at wins though, like 343 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 2: as a piece of the evaluation, as like the six 344 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 2: or seventh thing you look at. I'm totally cool with that. 345 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 2: But Paul Skeens has as many wins this year as 346 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 2: Mitchell Parker, who has been statistically probably the worst pitcher 347 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 2: in baseball, like Brandon fought has almost double the amount 348 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 2: of wins as Paul Skins. And when I look at 349 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 2: something like that, it's like, should we really even look 350 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,359 Speaker 2: at this at all? That's kind of where I'm coming from. 351 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean also, I mean the Mitchell Parker things. 352 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: But Brandon fat Well, I was about to say that 353 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: Brandon Fott played on a team that was kind of winners, 354 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: but they're not. There's a bunch of cry babies and 355 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: stuff like that. Outside of Corbyn Carroll. By the way, 356 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: we are going to hit your guys. I know you 357 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: guys are dropping some questions after we get through these 358 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: headline news. We are going to get to them. And 359 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: we'll even start a boy who dat dropped some bits 360 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: in the channel and that is going to get you 361 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: kind of front of the line access. So we are 362 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: going to answer a few questions here in a minute. 363 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: So we'll plow through a couple of these other things. 364 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,199 Speaker 1: Hunter Green three runs, twelve strikeouts and six and one 365 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: third no decision against the Angels. Very nice performance. Picking 366 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: right back up. Nate Low, who signed with the Red Sox, 367 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: made an impression game tying homer in the ninth inning 368 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 1: that to me, by the way should kill any of 369 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: the like the password playing first base, Like, I think 370 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 1: they found a nice little home for Nate Low. Also 371 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: in the Department of trade deadline making changes. We've talked 372 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: about this a little bit, but I wanted to know, 373 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: Brian and Bray you worked a scoreless inning against the 374 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 1: Tigers on Tuesday and got the save, So we were 375 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: kind of battling between, like, who's the guy, Brian and 376 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: Bray you any thoughts on a Bray you or Nate Low? 377 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: You want to drop? 378 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 2: Nate Low for me is more of a you know, 379 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 2: fifteen teamer or I mean if you're in an al 380 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 2: only league, for sure, But I don't know that he 381 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 2: is like a ten or twelve team standard league guy. 382 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,199 Speaker 2: If you have corner infield spots, deeper rosters, then I 383 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 2: think that he really works. And Brian Abray you, if 384 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 2: you needs where would you put him? I know it's 385 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 2: kind of late in the year to do rankings, but 386 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:06,120 Speaker 2: he's like a top fifteen closer something like that, Top twelve, 387 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 2: top fifteen considering the team context. So he should be 388 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 2: rostered pretty much by anybody who needs saves. 389 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, Ish, I'm not sure. Top twelve seems a little aggressive, 390 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: like I'm not I'm still not at the level where 391 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 1: like I'm like, oh, he's going to get every single 392 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: save and he'll be amazing and stuff like that, like 393 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 1: fifteen area because there's a lot of questions at the bottom, 394 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: a lot of team, you know, Diamondbacks are embarrassing, like 395 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,199 Speaker 1: Andrew Salfrank. You know, Andrew Salfrank has two saves. He 396 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 1: is the current active leader in saves that is on 397 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: the roster, so an active pitcher, he is the most saves, 398 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: which is crazy. So you know, I don't know this. 399 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: This has stood out to me when I saw this line, 400 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: and I just wanted to get your take on it. 401 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: So Bobby Witt one for four to run homer last night, 402 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 1: good ev stuff, blah blah blah. Wit now two ninety one, 403 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 1: three point fifty eighteen homers, thirty two stolen bases. Have 404 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: we talked about Bobby Witt once this entire season? I 405 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: feel like this has been the Bobby wit take take 406 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: a seat season. Quietly still solid. I mean, he's projecting 407 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: out that could be a twenty. If he steals a 408 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: little bit more towards the end, he could pull a 409 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: twenty forty season out of his hat respectable average out there. 410 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: I just wanted to mention I don't feel like I've 411 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: mentioned Bobby Witt like literally once, outside of maybe picking 412 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: him for a homer or two. This season. It is 413 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: just the most quiet Bobby Wit season, which is crazy. 414 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it's because the team has been so 415 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 2: miserable that there hasn't really been a lot of reason 416 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,400 Speaker 2: to talk about Kansas City and the fact that as 417 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 2: great as he's been, he definitely hasn't been as good 418 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 2: as last season. He had more than ten wins on 419 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 2: fangrapts last year at ten point five win season. Now 420 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 2: this year he's going to have a seven plus win season, 421 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 2: which is still great. But I feel like the reason 422 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 2: he's not talked about as much is because and as 423 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,679 Speaker 2: stupid as is going to say, he's been maybe a 424 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 2: touch disappointing. Now he's still the first round value. He 425 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 2: is the thirteenth ranked player overall. But I feel like 426 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 2: it just because we've had a lot of PCA talk, 427 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 2: a lot of cal Rawly talk recently. It's been like 428 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 2: Andrew and the Callings of the world. There's always just 429 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 2: been somebody who's been more popular on a given day, 430 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 2: but you're right, he doesn't get enough to He's still 431 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 2: a first round player this season. Pretty handle it, you did. 432 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: It's hilarious too. It's like, oh, it's like quietly if 433 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: I know, you're just like arbitrarily saying it. But it's 434 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,679 Speaker 1: like if we're like, oh, it's kind of a disappointing season, 435 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,640 Speaker 1: dudes hitting two ninety one. Like the only thing that's 436 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: actually disappointing, like truly disappointing is the home run output. 437 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: Thirty two homers last year, thirty homers the previous year. 438 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: He's at eighteen. He could have a big power output 439 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: and get close, but yeah, I mean like he is 440 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: going to have more stolen bases this year than last year. 441 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: His average is down forty points, but that's from three 442 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: thirty two to two ninety one. His OBP is down. 443 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: Look at the profile. Everything still looks pretty slick. Like 444 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: he is down slightly barrel, slightly hard hit. He's striking 445 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 1: out a tiny bit more, but you know, you take 446 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: out just some of those nitpicky stuff, like you know, 447 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: he's still there. He's still ninety eight percent of who 448 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: he is, And I just want I just laugh, because 449 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: there are these players that float out there for us 450 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: guys that are like super awesome, and then we're like, oh, 451 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 1: this is kind of disappointing. But then you look at 452 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: the line and you're like, for any other player, this 453 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: would be amazing. And someone made me laugh in here. 454 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: We've literally talked about more about Bubba Chandler than we 455 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: have Bobby with this year. That's how quiet it's been. 456 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: He's he's completely been, yeah, nonexistent through this entire thing. 457 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: The only other on the big big notes I wanted 458 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: to throw at you, Corbyn Carroll. This just got me 459 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,120 Speaker 1: going on. I know I am a Diamondback fan, blah 460 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 1: blah blah. Two triples last night RBI had a steal 461 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: great Diamondbacks when not what I necessarily cared about. But 462 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if people pay attention to the triples. 463 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 1: I believe he's the active leader this season. He is 464 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: the most triples of any And it just got me 465 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: thinking that what was the most triples that are out 466 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: there in a season? Like how important is that stat? 467 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: And I looked all time. There's like some dude from 468 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:57,679 Speaker 1: like the eighteen hundreds that got twenty eight triples in 469 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: a season. That was the most in a single season 470 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: since nineteen fifty there is or so if you do 471 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 1: nineteen fifty and beyond, one player, Curtis Granderson had the 472 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,160 Speaker 1: most and it was twenty three. So twenty three triples 473 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 1: in a season by Curtis Granderson in two thousand and 474 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 1: seven was the most. And Corbyn Carroll is finding other ways. 475 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 1: He's having career high in Homer's. And then I wanted 476 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 1: to look at just career Can you guess how many 477 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 1: how many triples? The the what is it the best 478 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 1: in baseball? Who has the most? I'm not asking the 479 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: name because it's some crazy person, but what is the 480 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 1: number of the most triples a person has had in baseball? 481 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 2: I actually didn't see this question sheet. 482 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 1: So oh you already looked at the sheet? 483 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 2: No, no, I didn't. I haven't, I haven't. Okay, I 484 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 2: saw the Corbyn Carroll part of it, but I didn't 485 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 2: read to the bottom. All time record for triples maybe 486 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 2: like four hundred three fifty four hundred. 487 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 1: Okay, it's pretty close, and by the way, absolutely not 488 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: even a Welsh's And I just like could not praise 489 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:04,159 Speaker 1: that properly whatsoever. So apologies, three hundred and nine is 490 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: the most triples any player has had in baseball. And 491 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 1: I did find number two very interesting. Ty Cobb was 492 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: number two with most career triples two ninety five. And 493 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 1: what's so funny about it is Corman Karrol looks like 494 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: this incredible, like, oh my god, look at him. You're 495 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 1: sitting all the but like if you if he plays 496 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,439 Speaker 1: have a twelve year career, the dude is like lining 497 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: out to have one hundred and twenty or something like that. 498 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: Like he has a forty career over four seasons triples. 499 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 1: So that is a pretty, I think, just wild stat 500 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 1: in general as far as that goes. And I was 501 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 1: just thinking about it because you know, it've've been lined 502 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: out everywhere. All right, let's answer some questions and let's 503 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: start with our boy who dat fellas I need help, 504 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 1: And shout out to Hudat by the way for using 505 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: some bits that are out there you can do that. 506 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: We've also had re Schmidty just followed up on the stream, 507 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 1: which we appreciate, and I think we had some others 508 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: that I've lost the gig followed. So shout to you 509 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: guys that are rocking with us. Which two pitchers should 510 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 1: I start today? JP Sears Schlitzler, Parker Messick, I'm gonna 511 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 1: lose the ra So looking for strikeouts, quality starts, wins 512 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: is a secondary and then you can see cheerwall, cheerwall. Well, 513 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: Schlitler has to be number one. If we're like, we 514 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: want quality starts and wins, but we care about strikeouts, 515 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,679 Speaker 1: I think we got to put Schlitzler in there. Executive 516 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: decision now for you, is it Seers or is it 517 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:31,919 Speaker 1: going to be Messic up against the Diamondbacks. 518 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 2: So every day, one of the things I do on 519 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 2: Patreon is I rank every starting pitcher for the day, 520 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 2: and Cam Schlitler I have at eight, JP Sears at thirteen, 521 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 2: and I have Messic at seventeen. And the reason that 522 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 2: I have Seis above Messick is just because how terrible 523 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 2: San Francisco is against left handed pitchers. Even NESSA Cortez 524 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 2: was able to have a decent start against him. It 525 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 2: wasn't amazing, but he got by, and I think I'd 526 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 2: have to go that route, even though series is unremarkable. 527 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 2: It's Messick's first career start and you just never really know. 528 00:24:58,720 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 2: So I think Seiars is a safer op. 529 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I'm gonna roll I'm gonna roll that. 530 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 1: Let's go to another one. Should I drop Andrew Vaughn 531 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: for Jean Carlos Stanton. 532 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 2: I couldn't drop vaugh right now, man, he's like prime 533 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 2: pooholes right now. I couldn't do it. Stanton should probably 534 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 2: be picked up, but there's got to be another dropped 535 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 2: in Vaughn. I feel like, unless it's a super shallow league, 536 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 2: but in that case, I don't think I could do it, 537 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 2: Like I don't really trust it. And he had to 538 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 2: sit what was it two or three consecutive games because 539 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,879 Speaker 2: of playing the field, and then they were like, I 540 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,199 Speaker 2: just don't really buy it with Stanton. With Vaughn, it 541 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 2: does seem pretty legit on a great offense, so I 542 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 2: have to stick with him. 543 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 1: How many games in the month of August do you 544 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,679 Speaker 1: think Andrew Vaughn has had a hit? And there's like, 545 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 1: let's call it like it looks like I mean, was 546 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: the twentieth or probably like eighteen games? 547 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 2: I'd say like fifteen. 548 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: I wanted to phrase it that way, because only two 549 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 1: games the entire month he has not had to hit. 550 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 1: That's how ridiculous Andrew Vaughn has been. He has just 551 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 1: been I mean, you know, maybe you can argue, like 552 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: where is the big impact in the month of August, 553 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: He's only had four multi hit games. But I don't 554 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: know how you drop Andrvon right now. So Stanton's fine 555 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: everything like that, But yeah, you said it, well, do 556 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 1: we trust Miserowski against the Cubs today? I do not. 557 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: If you were in the situation, who is it that? 558 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 1: Who that was? Where it was like I want strikeouts 559 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 1: and then everything else is secondary. Yes overall, No, I 560 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: just I don't. He didn't look good on that last one. 561 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: Like this is the time of year. Cubs are tough. 562 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess they're not as tough when you 563 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 1: know Kyle Tucker and PCA stink. But I don't. I 564 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 1: don't have high end trust for it. So you know, 565 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: if you're worried about your ratios and stuff like that, 566 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 1: Miserowski is the type of player that could ruin your ratios. 567 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: But also he could clearly carry your strikeouts. 568 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 2: He could. I'm a little more open to starting him. 569 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 2: And the main reason is that looking back over the 570 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,400 Speaker 2: last three weeks, I really like to look at three 571 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 2: week sample sizes, that comes up the second worst offense 572 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 2: in the league in that time and I think a 573 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 2: lot of it does TI to tucker into PCA not performing, 574 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 2: so I'd be a little more open to it. I'd 575 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 2: be a little more open to it. 576 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 1: All right, This is uh, this is a big one, 577 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: but essentially comes down to from what is this AFUSA? 578 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 1: Would you drop Coulson Montgomery in a playoff matchup? Considering 579 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 1: Win Smith, Volpi, Otto, Lopez, Rojas, Crawford. Those are all 580 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: the guys that are out there, and they have five 581 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 1: transactions a week to stream for starting pitchers. So it's 582 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 1: really like a do you trust Coulson Montgomery to hold 583 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: through or are you willing to cut him? If you 584 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: know Volpi, Mason Winner out there. And I kind of 585 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 1: think yeah, because unfortunately, as much as I kind of, 586 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: you know, defended Montgomery in the power department, he's a 587 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: little bit of a one trick pony, like he doesn't 588 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: help you greatly in batting average that I have no 589 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: issue cutting him and moving on from those other guys, 590 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 1: like when is it going to be as loud as 591 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 1: counting staffs but probably better batting average? Volpie I would 592 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 1: be fine with. I think given those options, even Crawford, 593 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: I rolled out Crawford some points this year. You can 594 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,959 Speaker 1: definitely cut Colson Montgomery if you need to get a 595 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,199 Speaker 1: more stable shortstop. 596 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think i'd probably go with Win sold a 597 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 2: couple of bases yesterday. I hope to see that continue. 598 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 2: Montgomery's battling an injury right now. In the last week. 599 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 2: He has kind of come back down to earth, so 600 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 2: I don't have any problem moving on. 601 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: Would you trade Judge Bregman for Jay Ram. They got 602 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,640 Speaker 1: Cheerrio Wood and Jay Rod in a ten team roe 603 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 1: O ten keepers, So. 604 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 2: In that situation you have to bench one of these 605 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,879 Speaker 2: guys every day, then maybe, but you're giving up too 606 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 2: much value wise, Judges like the number one. Judges like 607 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 2: the number one at worst the number two player. 608 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 1: I mean, Judge should Judge alone should get you Dre Ram. 609 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: You shouldn't have to also give up Bregman. And it's 610 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 1: a keeper. So now I think that's it's a little 611 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 1: bit too much. Janner Diaz, Ben Rice or Masaio. 612 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 2: I'm going Ben Rice Man. His data is eye popping. 613 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 2: You think you were looking at like Ota and I'm 614 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 2: not even exaggerating if you look at us, well, hell, 615 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 2: the whole year it's been, it's been fantastic like, and 616 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 2: the fact that he's disappointed this year means there's gonna 617 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 2: be a really nice price on him next season. Seventeen 618 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 2: percent barrel, fifty five hard hit like with catch your eligibility? 619 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: Yes, please, uh do a couple more here. Riley not 620 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: rightly not coming back anytime soon? Is it okay to 621 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: drop him for nowelbe Marte? We're in drop season, guys. 622 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: We are in the range where like if you don't 623 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: if you have to make a tough decision, you can 624 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: if you have il spots, it's great to try to 625 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: work it that way, but like you don't have time, 626 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: you can't afford it, especially guys that have this ambiguous 627 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 1: like the Wheeler stuff, you know, like Wheeler would be 628 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: like they're like, oh, we hopefully he could da da da, 629 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 1: and it's just like, nah, you can cut. You can 630 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 1: cut bait on it. So yeah, I think you can. 631 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 2: I'm not. 632 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 1: I don't love doing it, but I think you can. 633 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 2: I don't love it either. I got a couple of 634 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 2: leagues where I need Riley. But Marte is what a 635 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 2: one thirty three WRC plus he's stealing, he's hitting homers, 636 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 2: He's not striking out. Last year, you had a thirty 637 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 2: one percent strikeout rate. This year it's down at nineteen percent. 638 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 2: He's cut down on the swinging strikes. He's cut down 639 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 2: on the chases. I'm in I'm in on Marte. 640 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: I'm in on Marte like wonkeeper, just like let it go, 641 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: Let him go. They're not gonna help you anymore. Let 642 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: him go. 643 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 2: All. 644 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: I don't want any more. Sorry, let's do one more. 645 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: Then let's uh, let's move on. Should I keep Sanchez 646 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: in the fourteenth, Ryan and the thirteenth, Neto in the twelfth, 647 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 1: and let a Kuna go back in the player pool 648 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 1: for round three? So drop a round three Acunya for 649 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: any of those guys. 650 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 2: No, No, Round three Acunya is beautiful. 651 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: Without question. If I was keeping one of those others, 652 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: it would probably be Sanchez. That's amazing too. Netto might 653 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 1: deserve it at twelve, but I mean cy Young like 654 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: top five pitcher Sanchez. 655 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think Joe, Ryan and Sanchez like 656 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 2: they're very close in terms of overall value. But the 657 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 2: answers akunya, the answers akunya exactly all. 658 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: Right, we might try to hit a few more questions, 659 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: so feel free to rolling in. Todd said, because I know, 660 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: let it go. I clearly hot. Yes, I have a daughter. 661 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 1: So we went through the whole frozen face, so we 662 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: know the whole thing, whole kit and kaboodle A little 663 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: rookie lookie, just wanted to throw this one out here. 664 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: Jacob Wilson homewred on Tuesday in his third game with 665 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: Triple A Las Vegas. Very very good environment for hitting, 666 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 1: very good for Jacob Wilson, and he should be back 667 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: very soon. So I know people are kind of looming 668 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 1: on that one. Fun fact, remember that time where I 669 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: was like, hey, everybody, I'm so smart. You could drop 670 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: Jerks and Profar for Jacob Marcy. It's super easy, it's 671 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: no issue. Just do it. Jerks of Profar homeward in 672 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: his third consecutive day, fourth time in three days, and 673 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: I believe the question was, hey, Profar is available, can 674 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: I drop Marcy for him? Listen, Marcy is still incredible, 675 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 1: but Profar, this is the Jordan meme where he's like 676 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: and then I took it personal and he just went 677 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 1: absolutely ballistic. 678 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm taking my own, I'm taking my l Now 679 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 2: I think I'm still taking Marsie between them. Funnily enough, 680 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 2: I'm too. 681 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: I'm still going Marcie, I'm not gonna do this thing, 682 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: but like I see you, Profar. 683 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 2: But I've put pood Profar constantly throughout the whole suspension, 684 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 2: saying this guy stinks. Thirty two years old, he was 685 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 2: only good because of PDS, And maybe he was, but 686 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 2: maybe there's still some magic in there because this year 687 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 2: and last year the only two really truly great seasons 688 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 2: he's ever had, like one thirty five WRC plus this 689 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 2: year ten and six in forty six games. He's been great. 690 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 2: All that being said, Like I went over Jacob Marci's 691 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 2: underlying dada the other day. It's it's beautiful. It makes 692 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 2: you want to cry, it's so beautiful. I have to 693 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 2: go with him. I have to go with PARSI. 694 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and pro for stinks. It absolutely stinks. But yeah, 695 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: he's been good. August, he's hitting two ninety four. Here's oh, 696 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 1: here's a fun fact. Seven of his ten homers have 697 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 1: come this month. So this is either, you know, the 698 00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: continuation of something awesome or this is just a nice 699 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: little hot streak. I just I still love Marci here, 700 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: but I just thought it was funny. As soon as 701 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: I said that, I'm like, hey, profile, you don't need him. 702 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 1: And then just like bang bang boom, it's crazy. Three 703 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: up and three down up. David Peterson tossed eight innings, 704 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 1: one run ball, striking out ten against the Nationals. Joe 705 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 1: somewhere is screaming happily. George Springer with a two for 706 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 1: four and a combo meal love that. And Kyle Teal 707 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: two for five with a double homer four RBS. Kyle 708 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 1: Teal has been pretty dang good in the back half 709 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: of the year. He's gonna be a sneaky catcher next season, 710 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: maybe even floats around like I don't know if it's 711 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 1: like gonna be top twelve, but I think he's gonna 712 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: like be right on the edge of a fifteen team. 713 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 2: Rodos starter, Oh, I think so too. 714 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. 715 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 2: I mean he's homeward and back to back games now, 716 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,120 Speaker 2: he's at a two seventy four average with just shive 717 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 2: an eight hundred ops. He's gonna chip in a couple 718 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 2: of stolen bases. The White Sox are not a great lineup, 719 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 2: No one's ever gonna tell you that, but they're not 720 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 2: quite as awful as they were before so there is 721 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 2: some hope here. There's definitely some hope that he can 722 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 2: contribute in the counting stats. And I think next year 723 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,760 Speaker 2: too early to do positional rankings, but yeah, top fifteen 724 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 2: catch er sounds about right. 725 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 1: On the downs. Shane Boaz allowed six and runs seven 726 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 1: hits over three and against the Yankees. I feel bad too. 727 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,360 Speaker 1: I saw there's a video of if you saw it, 728 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 1: Ino had a video of showing his knuckle curve and 729 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: just breaking it all down, and I'm like watching that 730 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:28,399 Speaker 1: and then you see that line and you're like, maybe 731 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: try a different grip, maybe decided something else because it's 732 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: not working right now. Also, Mitch Keller allowed five and 733 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:35,719 Speaker 1: runs seven hits, three walks over three and one third 734 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 1: against your Jay's no bueno and Jorge Polanco golden sombrero, 735 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: so close, sinko, stinko. That's what we're looking for. A 736 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 1: bunch of injuries. Jacob de Grom not going to make 737 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 1: his schedule start on Wednesday. The Rangers are opting to 738 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: rest him as he's battling some shoulder fatigue, but not 739 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: going on the il best case scenario. Also going to 740 00:34:56,160 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: point out we have far surpassed any of the like 741 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,799 Speaker 1: I told you So's Usually I get smacked with this 742 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,839 Speaker 1: because I'm the guy that's like, listen, if you are 743 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: an incredible talent but you get injured, like I can't 744 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 1: help but be around you. If you have shown a 745 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:16,280 Speaker 1: decline and skill set and injured, I'm out. Jacob de Grom. 746 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,320 Speaker 1: I've always been a defender of just simply and obviously 747 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 1: you Joe this year, But like, we're beyond the point 748 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:23,959 Speaker 1: where anybody gets to tell I told you so because 749 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 1: he has played a significant portion of this season and 750 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 1: you love this. I love this management. This is exactly 751 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 1: what you want. So just pointing out he's gonna miss 752 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 1: a start, it doesn't look like it's anything a critical though. 753 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:36,839 Speaker 2: I selfishly kind of wish they did this a little 754 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 2: bit earlier in the year because I don't want to 755 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:40,360 Speaker 2: have to deal with this for head to head playoffs. 756 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 2: I don't think anybody does. But this is why you 757 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 2: play Rodo. I don't know how to feel about my 758 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 2: take on Jacob deGrom because I was very public about it. 759 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,879 Speaker 2: He was my number one starting pitcher. I was called 760 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 2: every slur in the book because of that, and I 761 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,800 Speaker 2: was wrong, Like he's not the number one starting pitcher. 762 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,919 Speaker 2: I thought the strikeouts would be higher than that for sure, 763 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 2: But nobody who drafted Jacob Degram on my advice is 764 00:35:58,160 --> 00:35:59,959 Speaker 2: going to say, couldn't believe I listened to a rico 765 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,240 Speaker 2: this year. How could he one hundred and forty innings 766 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,920 Speaker 2: of a two seven three ERA and a sub one WEB. 767 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 2: He's been phenomenal. I just hope we get three or 768 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 2: four more starts in the fantasy playoffs. 769 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is one of those like because you decided 770 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: to be like he's the number one, I think you 771 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 1: get an l but like, in the same token, you 772 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 1: deserve your dubs because you were defending and like he 773 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: was healthy the whole season, and guess what, he was incredible. 774 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 1: So had you just been a little bit lighter about 775 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 1: it and been like, hey, listen, de Gram is a 776 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: NOE out top five, he's a great pick, you would 777 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 1: be we'd be throwing a parade for you right now. 778 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 1: But you know you're number one and you're doubling down 779 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 1: on the cy young stuff is what kind of hurts you. 780 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 1: But he's been awesome. 781 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I just I thought if the strikeout 782 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 2: rate was like five points higher, I think it would 783 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 2: have been a lot closer. I think he would have 784 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 2: been in that Crochet and Scoobale conversation, but at this 785 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 2: point that ship has long sailed. 786 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 1: Laddie out again of the line up on Wednesday due 787 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,720 Speaker 1: to the hamstring inflammation where he was doing the splits. 788 00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 1: He's missed a couple of games, but not placed on 789 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 1: the IL yet, which is good. Ali Richmond scratch on 790 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:04,720 Speaker 1: Tuesday with some abdominal discomfort. Second to lead to Bisio 791 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: getting a playing catch, playing a little catch like he's 792 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: just been DH. I don't know if they're gonna they 793 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: they do not want him to I was actually talking 794 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 1: with our boy worm shout out to Wormley's birthday yesterday 795 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,280 Speaker 1: as an Orioles fan after we did our big fantasy 796 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,359 Speaker 1: fest on the football side, and me and him were 797 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:21,759 Speaker 1: talking about Bisio and I was like, buddy, they hate 798 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 1: Basio as a catcher. He just needs to move to 799 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 1: first be a DH. They don't want to play him there. 800 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:27,799 Speaker 1: But like when Adley miss his time like this, I 801 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: wonder if there's an opportunity. So I don't know, I 802 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: haven't seen it. 803 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:33,759 Speaker 2: I mean, what else are they going to do? You know? 804 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:34,720 Speaker 2: I mean to find. 805 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 1: Everybody else the same thing they did for three months 806 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 1: by calling up twelve different catchers that weren't Pasao. They 807 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:41,759 Speaker 1: do not want him to catch, so fairpoint. We mentioned. 808 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: Austin Riley felt soreness during a workout on Tuesday and 809 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 1: is not expected to be activated from thee IL anytime soon. 810 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 1: Jordan Westburg had to be removed from Monday's game with 811 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: a sore ankle and was held out, so that's not great. 812 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 1: You know, we don't know if there's gonna be an 813 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: ale Stemp at watch it. Kyle Bradish is going to 814 00:37:58,280 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 1: make his return to the Orioles next week, and there's 815 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 1: against the Red Sox. Probably going to try to avoid, 816 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: but Bradish is the type of guy that he might 817 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:06,919 Speaker 1: be good enough just first start back as a little. 818 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 1: Nico Lo Dolo could return as soon as Monday for 819 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:12,919 Speaker 1: the Reds if his bullpen session goes well today. LANCEA 820 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 1: McCullers is going to return to the will return for 821 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: the Astros on Friday night against the Orioles, so there's 822 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: some strikeouts for you. Jackson Merrill missed two consecutive or 823 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 1: a second consecutive game on Tuesday after tweaking his left ankle. 824 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 1: I mean Top five disappointments in Fantasy this year? Is 825 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 1: Meryl on that list? You think? 826 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I know there have been some injuries. 827 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 1: We'd have to like actively go through who and if 828 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 1: you guys did in the chat you could drop it. 829 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: We'd have to like look, but I have to say, 830 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 1: like Meryl is some version of top five just not 831 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,319 Speaker 1: even thinking about who all the dudes are. 832 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:48,319 Speaker 2: He has one steal on three attempts, like ninety one game. Sure, 833 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 2: like part of it is the volume, but nine homers, 834 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,840 Speaker 2: forty two runs, hitting two sixty, which isn't going to 835 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 2: kill you, but this has been pretty ugly. This is 836 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,359 Speaker 2: He's right up there for biggest bus. I mean, you'red 837 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 2: on if you want to factor an injury bus or 838 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 2: just like performance related bus. 839 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 1: I usually don't like to. I kind of want to 840 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 1: take out injuries when I think about it, like I 841 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: want to you just do from a performance standpoint, like 842 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,839 Speaker 1: who are the guys that just kind of disappeared? And 843 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 1: like like Lauren's butler, I think is a is a bust, 844 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:17,240 Speaker 1: But Meryl's a bigger bust. 845 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 2: Mookie is a bust for sure. Mookie's been a Mookie. 846 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what MOOKI is a bust. There's probably 847 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 1: some pitchers we're not thinking of on the high end 848 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 1: right now. But like I said, if we went through it, 849 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: you guys feel free, either it's live or on the 850 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: YouTube drop. Who are some of the biggest bus that 851 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 1: we're not thinking of. I don't know if Maryl's number one, 852 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,439 Speaker 1: but no doubt he's on the top five. Dylan Cees 853 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 1: that's a pretty good name as well. So Zach Gallen. Yeah, whoops, 854 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 1: we're doing at the same time. They're kind of Gallon's 855 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:41,800 Speaker 1: another one. 856 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 2: All right. 857 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 1: A couple other things. Jackson Churio is expected to begin 858 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 1: his rehab assignment on Friday, so good news. Shane Bieber's 859 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 1: going to be activated by the Blue Jays ahead of 860 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 1: his debut with the team on Friday in Miami. Will 861 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 1: you be starting Shane Bieber in that first start? I, 862 00:39:56,680 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: unfortunately don't have even a single share of Shane Bieber 863 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 1: and the way that theoreticals start. 864 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I would. I think I would. At 865 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 2: the end of the day, Miami has been better as 866 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 2: of late, like a league average offense over the last 867 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 2: few weeks, but they also lost Kyle Stowers, so that 868 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 2: makes him a lot more palatable of a matchup. Biaber 869 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 2: has looked really good in his rehab. The really, really 870 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 2: unfortunate news is that I don't know if you saw this, Welsh, 871 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:23,320 Speaker 2: but Eric Lauer going to the bullpen, which stinks. 872 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,320 Speaker 1: But no I miss that. 873 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 2: That's the corresponding move for the Blue Jays. Unfortunately. 874 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,399 Speaker 1: Hate that, absolutely hate that. Actually that's Flower's just been 875 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:33,919 Speaker 1: so good, but you know there's a management thing in there. 876 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: Last on the Andres, also Francisco Alvarez placed back on 877 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: the tinda io with a springed right thumb, will be 878 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 1: reevaluated in ten to fourteen days. Drop him for Kyle 879 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,799 Speaker 1: TiAl Go do that if he's floating out there for you. No, 880 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 1: Francisco Alvarez. But we do have some best bets. Let's 881 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:55,360 Speaker 1: do some best bets for August twentieth year. Joe Rico, 882 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: why don't you kick us off here. You've got some 883 00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:01,239 Speaker 1: beautiful looking plus money plays. Hear what you're betting here 884 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: for Wednesday on the card. 885 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're going with the trio of strikeout overs and 886 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 2: they're all the same number, they're all plus money. Show. 887 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 2: Hey o Tani, we hit this one last time. The 888 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,799 Speaker 2: books are still giving you a relatively low number at 889 00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 2: plus money against the Colorado Rockies, of all teams. He 890 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 2: has been consistently hitting this over in the last few starts, 891 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 2: even in four innings. I don't worry about this at all, show, Hey, 892 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 2: going over five and a half, that one is my 893 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,239 Speaker 2: favorite without a doubt. Code I senga this one is 894 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 2: also pretty appealing, a plus one twelve over five and 895 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:30,479 Speaker 2: a half strikeouts. He had seven in his last start. 896 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 2: And he gets to face the Washington Nationals, who are 897 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 2: you know, they're not the worst offense in baseball, but 898 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 2: they're certainly up there. And in terms of strikeouts, they 899 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,719 Speaker 2: are a bottom five team over the last three weeks 900 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 2: as well, so something I'm targeting there. And then Drew Rasmussen. 901 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 2: This one comes against the Yankees, who are also a 902 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 2: bottom ten strikeout team over the last few weeks. And 903 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,320 Speaker 2: I don't know if we've given Drew Rasmussen enough flowers 904 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 2: on this show, welse because he has been one of 905 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 2: the best starting pitchers all season long. 906 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 1: He's been pretty great, all right, my bets here. I 907 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,320 Speaker 1: went and took a look over on the betting Pros 908 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 1: MLB prop cheat sheet, where I've told you guys, we've 909 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: got some new markets available, and this one jumped out 910 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,640 Speaker 1: to me. This was the number one plus money play 911 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 1: for hits run RBI, and it was Nick Kurtz. There 912 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 1: was the number one overall play is a wild like 913 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: Sho Heo Tani in Colorado, which is like minus two 914 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 1: hundred for two point five hits runs a RBI over 915 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,280 Speaker 1: It's crazy number, but you can get one point five, 916 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,280 Speaker 1: so you need two combo of hits runs or RBI 917 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,799 Speaker 1: from Nick Kurtz going up against Bailey Over. I love 918 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 1: that play and it's plus one oh six. But my 919 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 1: favorite play is what we see a couple of people 920 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:35,279 Speaker 1: talking in the chat is Hurston Waldrip. I love this 921 00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 1: play today. The number is actually at five, but it's minus. 922 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 1: It's like minus DK is like minus one forty one 923 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 1: forty five for five strikeouts. I'm playing it at six 924 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 1: for plus one point fifty. He has hit these in 925 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 1: two both of his last two starts. He's going up 926 00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 1: against the White Sox. His splitter has been devastating. He's 927 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 1: found consistency and rhythm. So I am I am going 928 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:02,359 Speaker 1: for the big strikeout numbers against the White Sox today, 929 00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,440 Speaker 1: and I really like that one and then on the 930 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 1: Corbyn Carol run here, I'm going to go over one 931 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 1: point five total bases today, going up against a rookie 932 00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: and Parker Messick. He's been hitting this bad boy, so 933 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:15,840 Speaker 1: I really like this place.

Fisher King 955 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,320 Speaker 1: at forty seven. Then it kind of drops off.

He's facing Tanner Gordon, who has a sparkling 971 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 2: seven ninety eight era That one does feel pretty easy 972 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 2: against the Rockies at Core Field.
