00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:20,599
Speaker 1: you the Peanuts, the Cracker Jacks hanging out with us.

7
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: It's Friday. The baron has the right idea. Friday Beer's Welsh.

8
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: Let's go. Let's get into the Friday Beers special announcement.

9
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 1: Though before we get into all that, we're also going

10
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 1: to be doing the show a little early on Monday,

11
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: so instead of twelve thirty start, it's going to be

12
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: a noon Eastern start. Just set your calendars appropriately. Want

13
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: to get that out of the way. We got some

14
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: important business stuff to do. Sometimes the business of the

15
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: business's got to take over, so we're doing that. But

16
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,240
Speaker 1: we will be here. Leading Off will be here, Welsh

17
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 1: will be here, I will be there and Welsh. When

18
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: we're here, we are dangerously close to twenty thousand subscribers.

19
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: I'm when we're here on Monday, one hundred percent going

20
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 2: to be at twenty.

21
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: We have to be there we are hope we.

22
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 2: Are twenty something people away as we record this, which

23
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 2: means we will then be announcing maybe that made maybe

24
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 2: Our Monday meeting is about the twenty K that will

25
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 2: be then announcing our special show, our special twenty K show,

26
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 2: which you guys, what we have planned will be phenomenal.

27
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: So it will be It's gonna be fun, It's gonna

28
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: be a good time as always there and now I

29
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: hate to bring us down here after all the good

30
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 1: times and the Friday beers. But yesterday there was only

31
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 1: one home run call from all the peanuts and Crackerjacks

32
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: that actually hit just one. It was a terrible slate.

33
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: It was tough limited games is a Thursday, so that

34
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: was kind of bad. What made it worse the only

35
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: person who got the home run call was Mike Mayer.

36
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 1: And even worse than that, worse, worse, sir, the home

37
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: run call was Ryan Mountcastle, his boyfriend. So like I happened,

38
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: this is yesterday is a bummer. Like that was a

39
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 1: big bummer, So I want to wipe the slate clean.

40
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: Congratulations to Mayor though forgetting the one long home run call.

41
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: So the leaderboard obviously is not going to look too

42
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: different today when we get to the home runs, but it's.

43
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 2: Hard to do. That's hard to do, by the way,

44
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 2: to have one home run call and then for it

45
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 2: to be a character involved with Mayer, that is pretty crazy.

46
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: Well, Tim saying, isn't Joey p Italian his family should

47
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: at least count for twenty thousand alone. You're right, and

48
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 1: look have you got family here on the show. Even

49
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: my daughter subscribed to the show because they're good kids.

50
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 1: But I don't think they're frequent watchers. They do not care,

51
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: but they're subscribers. They support the family supports that's what

52
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,679
Speaker 1: they do. But speaking of support, the Mets rotation is

53
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 1: going to get some support. Christian Scott, a guy we've

54
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,679
Speaker 1: been talking about for weeks now, is going to get

55
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: the opportunity. Twenty four year old pitching prospect for the

56
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 1: New York Metropolitans. He is going to get a shot

57
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: here fifth round selection. He's got a three to two ERA,

58
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: a point seven to one whip, thirty six strikeouts, six

59
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 1: walks in twenty five innings. So I don't know how

60
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: long this is going to be Welsh, but I'm going

61
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: to try to live in the moment and be excited

62
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: about tomorrow because tomorrow sorrow is Christian Scott Day.

63
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 2: It is very exciting. We've been speculating about it. Howser

64
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: ended up having another one of those starts, another one

65
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 2: of those things. It's not in his spot in the rotation,

66
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 2: but this is what we're talking about, Like they weren't

67
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: going to hold him back for this long. Some really

68
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,799
Speaker 2: good positives on Christian Scott. You know his stuff. He's

69
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 2: been maintaining three four pitch pitcher. He's given up only

70
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 2: one hit in two straight games each, so two hits

71
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 2: over two games, which is nuts. But check this out.

72
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 2: He has given up twelve total hits this season. Seven

73
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 2: of them have been for home runs. So there's a

74
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 2: little bit of a home run problem, which is kind

75
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 2: of aproposed to me to brandan solo home runs?

76
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: How many of them? Like I'm asking you, there's some

77
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: great pitchers back in the day. We're gangbusters for that

78
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: where they would give up a lot of solo home

79
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: runs because they were just pounding the zone. They didn't

80
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: care you're gonna get one, that's fine, You're just not

81
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: gonna do it when someone's on that firm.

82
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 2: Four of the seven are at least solo homers. I

83
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 2: don't know about the other three.

84
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: I was an chilling thing before he went crazy. He

85
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: was notorious for giving up solo home runs because he

86
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: would challenge guys what he didn't have to and sometimes

87
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: it would burn him. But he was like, hey, I'm

88
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: throwing strikes. I'm trying to work through the lineup. This

89
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 1: is what I'm trying to do.

90
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 2: It's very reminiscent, I'm telling you, it's very reminiscent of

91
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 2: Brandon Fought. Like Brandon Fought was a basketball sweeper, change

92
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 2: up guy. That's what Christian Scott is. Velo's are maybe

93
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 2: like a tiny bit lower than what Brandon Fought does,

94
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 2: but you know he like sits around ninety three ninety four.

95
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 2: But if you sit in the zone a little bit

96
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 2: too much, if that sweep doesn't sweep enough, and then

97
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 2: you're pounding the fastball in, you're gonna give up some homers.

98
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:42,720
Speaker 2: So it's a little bit more of a flyball guy.

99
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 2: So it's something to watch. Here's a positive. I think

100
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 2: they're going up against the Rays. The Rays are like

101
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: bottom six in the league in homers per game, so

102
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 2: they don't hit a bunch of Homer. So it's either

103
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 2: gonna bend and you know it's gonna be a great

104
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 2: day to have Richie Pelasios or Yandi Diez or something

105
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,559
Speaker 2: like that over the weekend. Or it's just a better

106
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 2: matchup for a guy that hasn't been giving up a

107
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 2: bunch of hits, can rack up some strike ups. To

108
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 2: thirty six strikeouts over those six starts so far this

109
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 2: year to only twelve hits doesn't walk a ton. This

110
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 2: is what we've been building for. I wrote in my

111
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,919
Speaker 2: Prospected Stash article. I pretty much start him in any

112
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 2: capacity unless it was a team like the Braves. Here's

113
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 2: a unique thing. I believe it's the Braves next week.

114
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 2: So he's gonna get this start against the Rays, and

115
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 2: then he would line up I think maybe maybe.

116
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 1: Not because Tyler McGill is still working his way back

117
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: and he could end up going back into the rotation.

118
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 1: Here's a weird question. I can't believe we've been asking

119
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: this several Reno's pitch well, Bhuteau's pitched well, Christian Scott

120
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: has shown a lot of talent the Mets, and Koda

121
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: Senga is working his way back from injury. Is the

122
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,280
Speaker 1: Mets rotation good? Did I wake up this morning? Is

123
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: the Mets rotation actually good?

124
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 2: Is it good? That's a tricky question. Mets and good

125
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 2: rotation forget?

126
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 1: I said it forgets. Yeah, let's say.

127
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 2: I think it it toes the line of being good.

128
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 2: It's very strong.

129
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: I mean it's funny. Severino is usually the perfect guy

130
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: that I would be like all over this year in

131
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: fantasy and drafts. I would have been all like, yeah,

132
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 1: like post type whatever guy coming out of the Yankees,

133
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 1: Nu chain. But it was the Mets. I was like, oh,

134
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: this can't he did, so I avoided it. But he's

135
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 1: been terrific. Kyle Bradish four and two thirds, one run,

136
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,799
Speaker 1: four hits in his return start against the Yankees. Welsh,

137
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 1: Any thoughts on what you saw it a Bradish yesterday

138
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 1: limited in terms of you know what the innings were

139
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: going to be yesterday. I think we all knew that

140
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: going in, but tough challenge against the Yankees. Look like

141
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 1: he passed with flying colors and his arm is still

142
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: attached to his body.

143
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 2: I would agree all good things. By the way, thirty

144
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 2: three percent CSW percentage had a bunch of whiffs. Thirty

145
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 2: eight percent on the slider couple on the forcing fastball,

146
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,239
Speaker 2: so he was setting up. He got the eighty four pitches,

147
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 2: which is pretty great. There was no big crazy VL decreases,

148
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,279
Speaker 2: which I think would have been the really big thing

149
00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:00,720
Speaker 2: to look for. Looked like vintage ish Bradish. Big win

150
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 2: for anybody that had gotten Bradish in drafts, people had

151
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 2: dropped him and picked him up. He just goes right

152
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 2: back into it and he kind of lines up you

153
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 2: just talking about Christian Scott, you know, he kind of

154
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 2: lines up with Bradish being good that We'll see how

155
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 2: far this goes as far as the other picture that

156
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 2: was on the prospect list, Kid Povich that I had

157
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 2: talked about, and see if he gets to start soon.

158
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 2: But like Bradish being good is one of those reasons

159
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 2: that pushes back them experimenting or anything like what John means.

160
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm all in. I'm great that Bradish is back.

161
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 2: He is a definite buy if anybody is just kind

162
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 2: of like waffling about it, because coming off of that injury,

163
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 2: going eighty four, I don't care about any big crazy limits.

164
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 2: That's positive. That's a bit that's better than I think

165
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 2: what we're probably going to see. How a walker Bueller

166
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 2: on Monday. I'd be shocked to see him go eighty

167
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 2: five pitches or something like that. So this is the

168
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 2: injury that I can kind of look past a little bit.

169
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: And Kad Povich has no relation to Maury Povich. Right,

170
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: you should know. And the reason I ask is it's

171
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: not a joke because a lot of people will know this.

172
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: His dad. Surely Povich was renowned baseball writer. His dad

173
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 1: is named Shirley's name is Shirley. Shirley Povich, I want

174
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: to is also on the Ken Burns documentary Baseball. If

175
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: memory serves to Kate, you are not your father? Is

176
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: Joe completely making this up? You just don't know.

177
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 2: I would imagine a guy like Kate Povich has been

178
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 2: asked that three to four hundred times per week. So

179
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 2: I'm gonna guess no, or we would have heard about it.

180
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: So surely Povich was an American. He was a sports commist.

181
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 1: I want to say, not Washington Post and that was dad.

182
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: That was Maury's dad. I will bet journalist before the

183
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 1: you're not the father stuff, just say.

184
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 2: I will bet you we will get a nice, quippy

185
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 2: little article from the Athletic or something very soon. If

186
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,599
Speaker 2: Kate Win Kate Povich gets called up if he is

187
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 2: related to Maury. I promise, there you go.

188
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 1: I am serious, and don't call me Shirley. That's the

189
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: perfect thing for the Baron's on fire today, Barrett's crushing

190
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:55,079
Speaker 1: in the check.

191
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 2: Lots of don't call me Shirley's.

192
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's good, it's it's a class.

193
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 2: That was Leslie Nielsen, right, oh, says he is.

194
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: Not the father. I didn't think it was the father.

195
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,239
Speaker 1: I just didn't know if he was a relative, just saying.

196
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 2: But he also might just be doing he is not

197
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 2: the father.

198
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: You might know that.

199
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 2: Don't call me surely is Leslie Nielsen? Right?

200
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 1: That is Lesli Nielson from Area.

201
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 2: Did you know that I worked with somebody who I

202
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 2: don't I don't have much detail I want to give.

203
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 2: But they were directly no no, no, I'll tell you offline.

204
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 1: But they were done with Chris Welsh.

205
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 2: How they were directly related with Leslie Nielsen. And I

206
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 2: got all like to the estate and everything like that,

207
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 2: like they were a direct relative of Leslie Nielsen. So

208
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 2: I always got the stories about Leslie Nielson before he passed.

209
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: There's stories about Leslie Nielsen. Yeah, yeah, yeah, fun or

210
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: after the show stories, after the show stories. All right,

211
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: let's tell a story about for instance, Golden Door drove

212
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: in four runs off the bench yesterday. I kept saying

213
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 1: he was one of my bilows. In fact, on TV,

214
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:54,599
Speaker 1: I did a whole segment on him last week on

215
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: the Last Sunday Show, just by it like he is

216
00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 1: a good player. He has got off to a slope,

217
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: a bad april, slow start, whatever you want to call it,

218
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. By Okay, this is a little annoying, but

219
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: not you know, something we didn't kind of think was

220
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: in the range of outcomes. John Singleton two for three

221
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: to two run Homer. He was starting at first base yesterday,

222
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 1: Low Brafiito on the bench. Any concerns here or worries

223
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: here that liw Brafiito's going to get behind Singleton and

224
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: a brat is going to come back up and little

225
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: Brafriito's gonna get kind of, you know, downsized out here.

226
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 2: No, because Luperfido has been playing in the outfield and

227
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 2: he hasn't been playing first base. So I think that's

228
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 2: the positive. He made a bunker's play the other day

229
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 2: that bounced off of the wall. He bare handed it

230
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 2: and threw the guy out at second So no, I've

231
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 2: actually said I think that that might be the good

232
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 2: thing to look for Luperfito, is that they're not throwing

233
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 2: him at first base and making his only spot. He'll

234
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 2: start to move over there. What is interesting is I

235
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 2: think they sat him just the other day. God was

236
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 2: it versus a lefty and then Singleton was it. I

237
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 2: don't understand the Singleton thing though, he just had a

238
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 2: couple RBI and he's doing that. I just don't think

239
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 2: at this point positive that Luperfido is going to be

240
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 2: affected by whatever would happen in the future with a braw.

241
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 2: To me, this is a Singleton of bray you situation

242
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,559
Speaker 2: now because they made a commitment that luper Fido is

243
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 2: gonna stick up there.

244
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: But it's worth a pickup then because, like Jerry's asking

245
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 1: here in the chat, I guess in the deeper leagues

246
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: bats yeah.

247
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, in a deeper league, I would consider it. I

248
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 2: don't know if i'd be cutting him for anything like

249
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 2: really positive. I think he's going to continuously struggle, but yeah,

250
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 2: deeper deeper league.

251
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: Uh. By the way, I was right, Shirley Povic was

252
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 1: in uh the Ken Burn's Baseball documentary. He's the very

253
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 1: old guy with the very big horn rim glasses that

254
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: tells a lot of these great stories, like about like

255
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: you know, like the nineteen nineteen White Sox kind of stuff.

256
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 1: Like great stuff, man, amazing guy. We need it.

257
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 2: We need a comeback of like those really good like

258
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 2: half inch thick glasses.

259
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: Like people agree, well, maybe twenty thousand, maybe twenty five

260
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 1: thousand should wear enormous glass. Enormous glasses on the show.

261
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:56,959
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that'd be great. Yeah, we have the ring

262
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 2: lights that are just.

263
00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: I think we should let the Panza cracker Jacks pick

264
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: the glasses at twenty five.

265
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 2: K oh okay.

266
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: Tunny, we've already decided upon I like twenty the twenty.

267
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 1: We're sticking with the twenty. All right. One more thing

268
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 1: to get to here. Walker Buller schedule to make a

269
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: season debut on Monday. Celebrate Everybody, May is Walker Buller Month.

270
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 1: There you go, everybody, your expectations for Walker Buller rest

271
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: of season? Do you think there's any way he gets

272
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 1: back to form because a few years ago, Walker Buller,

273
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 1: I think we forget, was a dominant fantasy pitcher, but

274
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: unfortunately injuries have kind of derailed that the last two years.

275
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 1: So what is your hope like is if he is

276
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: a mid to back and starting pitcher here, is that

277
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: enough on the Dodgers to make you excited and fantasy?

278
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, if he was that on the Dodgers, I'm not

279
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 2: super optimistic. You could tell that by the open earlier.

280
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 2: I don't know how Dv's gonna go. H The Velo

281
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 2: has been kind of a struggle. They just brought him

282
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,199
Speaker 2: back last year, you know, like he was gonna come

283
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 2: up and he was gonna get some time, and then

284
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 2: they just shut it down and they were completely done

285
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 2: with it. The babying has me worried to the point

286
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 2: that I don't know if we're going to get the

287
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 2: old school Walker Bualer. But it's all speculation, so like

288
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 2: at this moment without seeing him in the majors or

289
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,839
Speaker 2: anything like that. No, I don't have insanely crazy high

290
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 2: expectations because the rehab stuff has not been great. We'll

291
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 2: see it when he gets out there. But if he

292
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 2: is eighty five percent of what we've seen in Walker

293
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 2: Bualer before, that's going to do very well. On the Dodgers,

294
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 2: that's going to do very well. But I'm worried this

295
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 2: is a eighty pitch pitcher that's lower V lows getting

296
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 2: hit up a bit more and is chasing what we

297
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 2: had before. But that doesn't really matter. Like if you

298
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 2: own him, you put him out there, maybe on a

299
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 2: good start, you sell him or something like that. But

300
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 2: he's not like available in spots. But I would pick

301
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 2: him up. I would see what we have out of him,

302
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 2: but my expectations are low.

303
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 1: You know. Walkee Penguin said that she had a massage

304
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: appointment earlier this week, right, but she seems still pretty

305
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 1: angry and like, I don't know if that really worked

306
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 1: to ease the tension. She's throwing stones here in the chat.

307
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: Why at Langford is this year? Is Jordan Walker absolutely

308
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: towards springing then poof.

309
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 2: Ouch burn well well but kind of similar in that

310
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 2: you know Walker thing, but still after if I got

311
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 2: a massage, I don't know if I'd be that angry

312
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 2: at White Langford this. I'm not a big massage person,

313
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 2: by the way, to be honest with you, Okay, like

314
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 2: chiropract like, nah.

315
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: Out of me. I don't want anybody crack in my back.

316
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 2: I was like I remember I went one time at

317
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 2: this ankle thing, and I was like, yeah, please don't

318
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 2: do anything crazy, and they're like okay, you know, and

319
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 2: I was like like, so I don't like any of

320
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 2: those things, so it actually makes me more angry. But

321
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 2: the interesting thing is like Langford, you know, is hitting

322
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 2: for average ish and not putting up a bunch of

323
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 2: accounting stats like Jordan Walker was last year. I think

324
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 2: it's going to go in a different path, you know what.

325
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 2: Let everybody go and go drop your Walker White Langford,

326
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 2: your Walker, Langford Walk.

327
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 1: I'll drop your Walker Texas Ranger.

328
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 2: That's right, I will go pick them up. I think

329
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 2: it's silly to be losing your mind, but I understand

330
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 2: when you like paid really high early prices. There's actually

331
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 2: a lot of similarities with Langford and Walker right now,

332
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 2: but I think it'll go in a different direction with Wyatt.

333
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 1: All right, I want to talk about little rookie, lookie,

334
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: I want to talk about Kobe Mayo here for a second,

335
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: if I may, we need to two for six another

336
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: homer five RBI yesterday. Norfolk is amazing. I want to

337
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: go see a baseball game in Norfolk. I remember like

338
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: other teams have been through there, but over the years.

339
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: But uh, what do you what do you make close

340
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: to Norfolk, Virginia? No, not not, I don't know. I don't.

341
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: I mean.

342
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 2: I don't have this. Okay, but see that that's insane

343
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 2: to me. You're like, no, it's not close at all.

344
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 2: But I could drive that.

345
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 1: You could drive like you have like six hours, like

346
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 1: I don't want to drive like.

347
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 2: Seven states that are like within reach of each other.

348
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 2: Like here in Arizona, everything is five hours away from.

349
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey. Yes, like even Maryland is

350
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 1: not that far away. Virginia is a bit of a hike.

351
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 1: I will look, I'll tell you. You talk about Kobe Mayo,

352
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: and I'll tell you how far I am from Norfolk. Yeah.

353
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 2: Well, one thing not mentioned is Kobe Mayo, his homewer.

354
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 2: Now in four straight games he has a I believe

355
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 2: he's number two in baseball and homers louper Fido, who's

356
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 2: gone thirty one RBI in thirty games so far this year.

357
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 2: He's hitting three thirty three and almost four hundred. He's

358
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 2: essentially got a three four almost seven batting slash right now.

359
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 2: His strikeout rates a little bit high, which is maybe

360
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 2: one of the things they would have is like an

361
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 2: excusey type of thing, but he's absolutely destroy He's the

362
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 2: destroyer of Baseball's that.

363
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: Is there a place for him? Though?

364
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 2: Yes, If Okay Ramonaius bye, jorgem Mateo bye, you guys

365
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 2: can go, and then they can have Westburg be the

366
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 2: everyday second baseman and Kobe Mayo can be the every day.

367
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: So then Jackson Holliday gets buried at Norfolk? Is that

368
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: what happens?

369
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, welcome, that's what he's doing right now, one hundred

370
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 2: percent that that is how it's going to have to go.

371
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 2: The only other caveat to this, he's like, you could

372
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 2: have Kobe Mayo be the guy that goes in place

373
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 2: first base, but they don't want to give up on

374
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 2: rank Mountcastle, so there's only so much.

375
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: Maybe they huge Mike Mayer would not be happy about that.

376
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 2: We would have like a whole thirty minute like you know,

377
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 2: Memoriam to Ryan mount Pats.

378
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 1: Which is ironic because if Melcastle lost his job to

379
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 1: a guy named Mayo, which is our nickname for Mayor

380
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:12,360
Speaker 1: behind the scenes.

381
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 2: That's cross fingers fabulous. If the Orioles want to do it,

382
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 2: they can do it. But you do have this balance

383
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,439
Speaker 2: of like how many young how how much of this

384
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 2: Norfolk roster do we want to have on our majors.

385
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 2: You want to have like, you know, veteran leadership guys

386
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 2: that have been through the ringer, and you've also seen

387
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,360
Speaker 2: like what happened with Jackson Holiday. So I think they're

388
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 2: going to kind of slow roll some of these. But

389
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 2: we are getting to like we can all scream about

390
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 2: prospects and stuff like that. I could do ooh commins

391
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 2: Junior Kim, and I don't know what we're doing with

392
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,400
Speaker 2: Kobe Mayo. I don't know what we're doing right now.

393
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 2: He has nothing to prove there except maybe stop striking

394
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 2: out so much. It is twenty seven at the time

395
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,920
Speaker 2: that screams thirty percent at the majors. Outside of that, though,

396
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 2: he's just destroying everything. He really has nothing to prove

397
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 2: to be there. And I really do think they should

398
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,639
Speaker 2: give him a shot and see what it's about. But

399
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 2: you know, maybe Heston Kirshtek can go away and then

400
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,199
Speaker 2: Mayo can go between first and third and d H

401
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:08,680
Speaker 2: maybe play him in the outs.

402
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: And embarrassment of riches. It really is donning.

403
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,359
Speaker 2: I don't remember a team that has had this level

404
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 2: of riches at Triple A man and they still have

405
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,400
Speaker 2: Connor Norby k Povich who we talked about, Mours Mori's kid,

406
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 2: all of those things. Those guys are still there. They're

407
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 2: still there.

408
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think that's a that's a great question

409
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 1: if you if you've got an answer, who had this

410
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 1: sort of abundance of talent.

411
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 2: At one level that was closed one level.

412
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: At one time that also had guys who were young

413
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,679
Speaker 1: and fans. I mean, I can only imagine we have

414
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 1: to go back to one Braves organization in the nineties

415
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: perhaps like you know, like into the Dave Justice, Ron

416
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 1: Gamt Chipper Jones kind of stuff, and then other guys

417
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: came up, and then they had to move those guys

418
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 1: to make room for the next Like that might be it,

419
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: but that's apecial. By the way, six hours, eleven minutes

420
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 1: Norfolk is away from me.

421
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 2: I mean that was okay. That would be like me going.

422
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: And when the bathroom breaks and lunch, that's gonna be

423
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: seven and a half. Let's be okay.

424
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 2: But but it is true, like you guys, you'll be like,

425
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 2: well this is over in Philadelphia.

426
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 1: Philadelphia's an hour there you go, that's fine. What's going

427
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: over two hours for something I don't know? Two hours

428
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,199
Speaker 1: is like, I'm not a big car driving guy. I

429
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: gotta like long drives and on the highway stuff. And no, no,

430
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,439
Speaker 1: I'd rather get on a plane in two hours, be

431
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 1: somewhere totally different, like Nashville was two hours and like change.

432
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,120
Speaker 1: For me, that was so much fun when we went there,

433
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:32,120
Speaker 1: we had the best time.

434
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 2: It was a plane right. Ever, I just like, for you, well, yeah,

435
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to request, like I'm gonna have to

436
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 2: get my own private jet or something from fantasy pros.

437
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: But if they were paying for the flight, I don't

438
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 1: know why you booked. They put me on.

439
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 2: Southwest though, And I was sitting there and I was like.

440
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: You put you on, Say you booked your own flight.

441
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 1: I can tell you book your flight, book your flight, yea,

Speaker 1: You're like, Oh, now I chouldn't it because it's fy.

Speaker 1: What's the name Tom Petty? Let's his name? Eh? Eh?

486
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: What the hell?

487
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 2: You play the best old person like that.

488
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 1: I remember Shirley Pofach and I were on a train

489
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: from Washington, d c. All the way to Philadelphia and

490
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,440
Speaker 1: we were on that train with Ty Cobb. And let

491
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:15,160
Speaker 1: me tell you, those were some colorful stories from Ty Cobb.

492
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 1: I did not care for them whatsoever. He was a mean, old,

493
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 1: nasty man, and I didn't like him at all. He

494
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 1: also in a liquor store after he retired. A lot

495
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: of people don't know that.

496
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 2: I just want to let you. I don't want tow.

497
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: I could go for a half hour, No I know.

498
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: Let's go, three up, three down. Jose Al two May

499
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 1: three for five with an RBI and a stolen base

500
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: against the Guardians Kyle Harrison five innings, but most importantly,

501
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 1: Welsh over seven strikeouts. There you go feeling good about

502
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: that one one of Welsh's best. Yes, right. Juan Soto

503
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,480
Speaker 1: still hot, although the Yankees they kind of get it

504
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: down because they've struggled a little bit against the Orioles lately.

505
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: The Nats offense get shut out. That's a down. Adrian Hauser,

506
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,199
Speaker 1: this is a down. Four runs, five innings. I want

507
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:01,879
Speaker 1: him out of the rotation. I want to see Budo.

508
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 1: I want to see Christian Scott. That's it. That's all

509
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,360
Speaker 1: I want to see. And Carlos Rodan my number one

510
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 1: cell high from last week, seven runs, six earned. Told

511
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 1: you let's go. You missed the window. I hope you listened. Look,

512
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 1: we have been really good about the buy low, sell

513
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: high around these parts for the last four weeks, so

514
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: pretty good. Please the love of God, listen to us.

515
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 1: We know what we're talking about when it comes to that.

516
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 1: Injuries Welsh, Nick Bavetta five k's four runs and three

517
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 1: innings and his rehabs starting to blay. Kyle Hendrick seven strikeouts,

518
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 1: two runs, five innings. Everyone's on rehab assignment. Garrett Cole

519
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: is targeting a mid June return. Are you buying that,

520
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 1: let's say, June fifteenth, over under Garrett Cole?

521
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,879
Speaker 2: Well, I'm buying that. But you were the one that

522
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,479
Speaker 2: was like, get out, get out of the Garrett Cole business.

523
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 2: I think we're fine in the Garrett Cole business.

524
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: Oh, I think you're fine. So you're gonna get more

525
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 1: than twelve and a half starts. That's my over under.

526
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, give me up. Whatever the math is when he

527
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,439
Speaker 2: comes back. I think he comes back on time mid June,

528
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 2: and I don't think there are any real setbacks or

529
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 2: anything like that. But also, I'm a big old, stupid

530
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 2: injury dummy, So don't listen to me.

531
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 1: Guy.

532
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 2: If a guy is on the field, I am blinders

533
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 2: to the potential injury. I'm like Mike Trout blah, blah,

534
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 2: look like that's just how I am like. I'm like, listen,

535
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 2: there's a great value on it. If you don't have

536
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 2: to pay the what he could be priced, why would

537
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 2: you not want it? But there's injury risk. So to

538
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 2: Joe's point, he gets back at the time, I can

539
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 2: tell you this the one thing we should agree on.

540
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 2: You don't trade him or consider trading Garrett Cole up

541
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,919
Speaker 2: until he's back in the majors and doing Garrett Cole stuff.

542
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 2: There's no other point that's worth it, because when he

543
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 2: comes back and does Garrett Cole stuff.

544
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: We disagree.

545
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,120
Speaker 2: Because when he's back, then he is back forward.

546
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: What if he doesn't get there? What what the minute

547
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,679
Speaker 1: he gets announced for rehab assignment is when I'm doing it?

548
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 1: If nightmare is well, he went out there in the

549
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: rehab assignment, didn't feel too good, and then you've waited

550
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: all this time for nothing. Now, if you're going to

551
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 1: get out of the Garrett Cole business, and I recommend

552
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 1: trying to just to see, that's what I would do.

553
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: We can disagree on this, This is perfectly fine. We're

554
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 1: still friends. We could disagree on this, but I have

555
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: zero tolerance right now for this stuff like it has

556
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 1: been a rough year. If it perhaps if pitching hasn't

557
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 1: been such a complete hot mess all year with injuries,

558
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 1: maybe I feel differently, But I don't. It's been a

559
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: hot mess. Well, if you're gonna give me a picture

560
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 1: that's healthy, then I know is healthy that I know

561
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 1: is good for the rest of the season for Garrett Cole,

562
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: who might not be Garrett Cole level. I will take

563
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: that picture and I will run with or give two

564
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:30,359
Speaker 1: of them that.

565
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 2: What you should do, by the way, is somebody came

566
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 2: up with this. Was it yesterday that we did your

567
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 2: funny bit where you were the like the the lawyer.

568
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 2: It's called one eight hundred Joe wins and the number

569
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 2: works out. I wonder what that goes to. What eight

570
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,120
Speaker 2: hundred Joe wins should be your new hit?

571
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 1: Right now?

572
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 2: When you get curmudgeon about something and you should be like,

573
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get you what you want to get a

574
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 2: return for Garrett Cole before it all falls apart, I'm

575
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 2: gonna get you that should be.

576
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 1: You're just telling you. I mean, we've been to how

577
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 1: many time does a guy have elbow issues? Elbow issues

578
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:01,919
Speaker 1: get shut down and it all works out when we

579
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: all go oh, because you know it's Gangbusters. It's great.

580
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 1: I'm so glad we dodged that bullet. I'm just trying

581
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 1: to remember when that was here. At Tanaka was the

582
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: one guy that I remember it came back and pitched after.

583
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: But he was never quite the same guy. Let's not

584
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: pretend like he wasn't. And he did not have the surgery.

585
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 1: Everybody remembers that he did the other stuff, and he

586
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 1: was gonna, wait, you want.

587
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,239
Speaker 2: Out from Bratish? Do you want out from sat? Do

588
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 2: you want you want out?

589
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 1: We went out from It wasn't an elbow, it was

590
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 1: a shoulder, and it was a different issue the elbow specifically.

591
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 1: Tell me when the last time somebody had one of

592
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: these issues? Shut it down Gordon Ramsey style and then

593
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 1: came back and everything, which was perfectly fine.

594
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 2: The rest of the Yeah, I mean, I don't know.

595
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 2: Let's get a hat. The one hundred Joe wins that

596
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 2: should be we need to tell me, tell me, tell

597
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 2: me when that was.

598
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 1: He can't well, I got the question.

599
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 2: No, I'm not dodging the question.

600
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 1: I don't have all that dodge no question.

601
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 2: But I also I was in twelve.

602
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: I did tell me and ZERGI and he came back

603
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:02,360
Speaker 1: and terrible.

604
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 2: Man. I think you're also lumping every single picture with

605
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 2: every single type of arm issue in together. And you're like, oh,

606
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 2: you're doing that.

607
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,439
Speaker 1: You're doing that with Senga. You just had the shoulder.

608
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,159
Speaker 1: I was like, No, Sega's got a shoulder issue, not

609
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 1: an elbow. I'm talking about guys with elbow issues get

610
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 1: shut down with elbow inflammation. Everybody comes or elbow strains

611
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 1: or UCL issues and everything's fine. When they come back,

612
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 1: it doesn't happens.

613
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 2: You know what the positive is about that? Sure, it's

614
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 2: not a full season. It's a half a season for

615
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,360
Speaker 2: Garrett Cole. So can he be good for.

616
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 1: Half of a season?

617
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 2: I think so?

618
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 1: And this is exactly why you sell him, because there's

619
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 1: enough Welshes out there, and I don't think so. I

620
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 1: can't wait now. Now, this is gonna be my mission

621
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: in life is to watch the Garrett Cole stuff. It's

622
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 1: gonna be like Mike Trout all over again. So its

623
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,399
Speaker 1: like I don't want to be the Grim Reaper. It's

624
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: just the facts. It's just the world we live in.

625
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: Let's not sure there's coming back because he's an animal.

626
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,159
Speaker 1: He's four hundred and twelve years old, but he doesn't care.

627
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: He's making another rehab start next week and no, is

628
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,160
Speaker 1: it back in the thumb? Is it a UCL issue?

629
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 1: Why do you keep changing the narrative? Why if you're

630
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 1: changing the narrative, you're like, oh, how about can send?

631
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,239
Speaker 1: What about this guy like he's got a neck issue,

632
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:18,639
Speaker 1: he's got a thumb.

633
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,119
Speaker 2: All his pictures ugly as a dog.

634
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, you keep changing the narrative. I'm being

635
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 1: very specific about him.

636
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 2: Just being pokey because you want to know all the

637
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 2: all the time.

638
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 1: It's a Friday, and I'm I'm easy to poke right now.

639
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: Let that be known. On a Friday, I'm easy to poke.

640
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 1: Christian Hobber finally rehab assignment this weekend. Uh and then

641
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 1: Brax and Garrett fired five shoutout innings on Wednesday in

642
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: a rehab start. I mentioned earlier shoulder Issueylo McGill he's

643
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 1: going to be back on a rehab assignment in double A.

644
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: I don't like again. I've seen Tyler McGill. I know

645
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: what he is. It's fine. Massa Taki. She, by the way,

646
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 1: could end up needing surgery in the left thumb, so

647
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: that's gonna keep him out even longer. Not that he

648
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: was like crushing things, but fun fact, the most productive

649
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 1: offensive outfield and baseball this year has been the Red Sox.

650
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 1: What do you think of that?

651
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 2: Uh, I'm actually surprised about that, but it makes sense

652
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 2: because of how good Jared Durant has been.

653
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: If they're us unbelieved.

654
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 2: Tyler o'nil has been insane, you know, I'm gonna bring

655
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 2: this back to me and give me some positivity. One

656
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 2: of my bold predictions in the preseason was that Masatakiyoshida, who,

657
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 2: by the way, I want to mind everybody, was being

658
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 2: drafted as the first of the outfielders. I said he

659
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 2: was going to be the third most productive outfielder on

660
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,959
Speaker 2: that team, and Jared Duran and tyler' neil have been more.

661
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 2: But they're also probably looping in Rafaela will you're a

662
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 2: bray you and if you take all of that, yeah,

663
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 2: they have gotten like a ton of production out of

664
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 2: that team. But I think I think that status lifted

665
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 2: by Tyler O'Neill specifically, Like, Jared Duran has been awesome,

666
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 2: but Tyler O'Neil has just been like on another world.

667
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 2: But you know that's selling opportunity, closing.

668
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 1: Clothes and some of the comments in the chatter hilarious.

669
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 1: Give Joe some stewed prunes, he'll be fine.

670
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 2: There's so many things like God, if we could get

671
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 2: that old look of yours on a shirt.

672
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 1: Joe Win. Everyone says I look like Robert de Niro

673
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 1: when I do that, and I do, yeah, well, I

674
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: look at Robert Daniro. Anyway, I do the face. It's

675
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 1: a good face, it's pretty good. But when I do this,

676
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: I look exactly like when de Niro is at the

677
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: end of Goodfellas and he's telling little rain Brocco, Yeah, yeah,

678
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 1: I got the fur coats. You're right down there. Yeah,

679
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: just go. He's gonna have her whacked, and like the

680
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 1: two guys are waiting for and the thing, and she's like, no, no,

681
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: I'm good. He's like, no, I'm not go in there. Dog.

682
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: What are you doing? Why are you getting the car?

683
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: Why you driving away? Let's try to whack you.

684
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 2: What are you doing a lot of pokes today?

685
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, everyone's getting whacked and everyone's getting poked. That's why

686
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 1: you come for leading off its day, That's why you

694
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 1: five Welsh, I'm gonna keep it simple today. I understand

695
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 1: George Kerby's going against the Astros. I don't care. I'm

696
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 1: going opo because the four and a half number on

697
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 1: the strikeouts too low for me and the juice is

698
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 1: too much. I'm going to the alt line six and

699
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: a half. I'm pushing the envelope. I'm pushing my luck.

700
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,719
Speaker 1: It's probably not gonna work, but I'm gonna try anyway.

701
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a page out of Welsh's book. Two

702
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: San Diego Padres first five with Dylan Season on the

703
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 1: mount against Arizona Padres minus one eighteen. That's where I'm

704
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 1: going on this one Red Sox plus one and a

705
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 1: half on the run line. You get plus one fifty

706
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 1: money on this against the Twins and then keeping it simple,

707
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: some money line wins today. The Yankees at minus one

708
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 1: sixty eight, the Cardinals at minus two ninety and the

709
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: Padres with Dylan Csus been terrific this year on the

710
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 1: mound at minus one ten. You put them together, you

711
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 1: get plus three hundred. That's right, three to one Yankees, Cardinals, Padres.

712
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 1: That's my parlay of the day, Welsh, What do you

713
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,760
Speaker 1: have for the people on fun Friday? Oh?

714
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 2: I want to back that George Kirby so bad.

715
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 1: Hey, you want to back that Kirby up?

716
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 2: I can't because Houston is the least k percentage team

717
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 2: in all of baseball. They strike out the least.

718
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 1: So I just I'm going but you know what, I'm

719
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 1: putting my faith in George Kirby. That's what I'm doing.

720
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 1: It's gonna be wild, It's gonna be crazy, but there

721
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 1: we go. Go ahead. What do you have?

722
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 2: All right? You mentioned Boston. Boston is in my play

723
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 2: of the day because I'm gonna take their first five

724
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 2: money line, which I think that three six five actually

725
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 2: has one of the best lines out there. At minus

726
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 2: one fifteen, Boston is eighth in scoring through the first five.

727
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 2: Minnesota is only eighteenth. But this is about Tanner Hawk,

728
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 2: who is on the mound, who's given up only seven

729
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 2: earned runs in six starts this year. I also am very,

730
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 2: very intrigued with his k numbers. So anything I can

731
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 2: do to be involved, I get the full game line

732
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 2: on what you have with the run line. I could

733
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 2: play that as well, but this is a pure Boston

734
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 2: is either t you know, if they're tied, then we push.

735
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 2: If they're up by one run through the first five,

736
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 2: I win. So we're going ten or haup. We're backing

737
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 2: him on the Boston first five Seattle in Houston. That's

738
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 2: how I'm backing George Kirby today because I'm going first

739
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 2: five under four and a half runs in that game.

740
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 2: Because you know, Reno Blanco has been very good this season.

741
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 2: I don't believe he's given up more than tour in

742
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 2: runs all year. You've got Kirby who has back to

743
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,959
Speaker 2: back starts without giving up a run. Also in it,

744
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 2: Seattle sixth worst in first five scoring. So like, if

745
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,080
Speaker 2: you are going to say, okay, George Curby is gonna

746
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 2: kind of shut them down to some degree, what can

747
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 2: Seattle do against Blanco? They're one of the worst, you know,

748
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 2: scoring teams through the first five, So I'm going under

749
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 2: four and a half runs through that first five. I

750
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 2: really like that one. And then it's kind of a

751
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 2: two piece er. I get two alt strikeout lines. You

752
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 2: know you're playing an alt strikeout line. I believe on

753
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 2: George Kirby correct, Yeah, you aline I have today. I

754
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 2: have two ALT lines. Don't want to call them ladders

755
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 2: or anything like that that I'm gonna go too crazy

756
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,839
Speaker 2: with it. But here are the two tan or how

757
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 2: can we mention up against Minnesota at plus seven strikeouts,

758
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 2: that is at plus one forty five, I think he

759
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 2: just had a nine strikeout game and Minnesota strikes out

760
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 2: a ton, and then Sonny Gray up against the Chicago

761
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 2: White Sox. White Socks are weird sometimes and that they're

762
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 2: like they can be the worst and then all of

763
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,839
Speaker 2: a sudden they don't strike out. But Sonny Gray has

764
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,439
Speaker 2: been one of the best in all of baseball. He's

765
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 2: racked up huge strikeout performances. You can get seven strikeouts

766
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,640
Speaker 2: at plus one forty right now. If I were to

767
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,800
Speaker 2: maybe go to eight plus, I'd be looking at Sonny

768
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,400

Speaker 1: great weekend, everybody, all right. Mike Mayer entered the chat

781
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 1: and immediately asked if they talked about Mountcastle yet. Yes,

782
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 1: we have, Okay, we talked about it already. The board

783
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 1: obviously looks the same pretty much here. I don't see

784
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 1: Mayor on the board, so as long as I don't

785
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: see him on the board, we're all safe. So Welsh

786
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: for the weekend, I'm keeping it simple. I'm going with

787
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 1: the one one. He's swinging a hot bat here. He's

788
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 1: at home this weekend, so just fish in a barrel

789
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:41,760
Speaker 1: for me. I'm looking to get at least one homer

790
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: over this weekend with one Soto, if not two, because

791
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,040
Speaker 1: that tiny little ballpark known as Yankee Stadium. Welsh, where

792
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:49,760
Speaker 1: are you going with your home run call for this weekend?

793
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,839
Speaker 2: A little baby ballpark. I'm gonna go with Bobby Witt

794
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,799
Speaker 2: Junior at least for today. I'll probably jump in and

795
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 2: make some alterations over the weekend, but going up against

796
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 2: Michael Lorenzen, I'm gonna get Bobby to get me on

797
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:07,160

Speaker 1: That's right, big meetings. All right, Let's get to a

806
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 1: couple quick things here too. I see I'm a gd wizard.

807
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,760
Speaker 1: I traded away Cole yesterday with Tyler n Neo Volpi,

808
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:38,320
Speaker 1: Michael King and Kowser got back CJ. Abrams and Otani.

809
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 1: This is a lot to take in here, a lot.

810
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 1: The best piece of this deal is O Tommy, and

811
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 1: the second best piece of this deal might be CJ. Abrams.

812
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,840
Speaker 1: I think you won this, Wiz. What do you think? Welch?

813
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm always about the best players. Is this dynasty,

814
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 2: is this redraft? Is this team? Is this twelve?

815
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 1: And I think wiz Whiz just laid it out there.

816
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 1: He trade a bunch of things that are you know,

817
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,439
Speaker 1: like we'll Neil's been terrific, Volpi's looked really good. Cole

818
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 1: is a question mark? And would you get back to

819
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: luck in starters who are high end, top fifty players,

820
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 1: top twen.

821
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 2: It almost doesn't matter, like what you're doing. I was

822
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 2: only pointing out the point, like.

823
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what you're doing, what depth.

824
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 2: You killed on your team or something like that. But

825
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 2: who cares? You got a Tani and Abrams.

826
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of guys getting called up, like Ourelvis Martinez.

827
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 1: We've been talking about Aurelvis. I think he gets called

828
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 1: up soon. Welsh your thoughts here?

829
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, they just got to find a spot. I mean, yeah,

830
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 2: no one everyone is talking about Eerrelvis Martinez. Actually, Scott

831
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,400
Speaker 2: we have been talking about him as we're talking about him.

832
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 2: He had an insane April. I think only two days

833
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:44,560
Speaker 2: in the entire month did he not have a hit.

834
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:47,400
Speaker 2: He hit three ten. I just wrote him up and

835
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,240
Speaker 2: moved him up on the prospects to stash. The problem

836
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 2: is is finding the space the offense could use it.

837
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 2: But when they do, he's a shortstop and they're not

838
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 2: going to put him in place of Boba Schett. So

839
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 2: are they gonna play him at third? Are think playm

840
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 2: at second? If they do at second? Okay, over David Schneider,

841
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 2: what happened?

842
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've just.

843
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 2: Got weird stuff they've got to figure out. Yeah, but

844
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 2: some of these guys just have like some of these

845
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:13,280
Speaker 2: teams have weird placement they got to find on prospects.

846
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 2: I assume summing.

847
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 1: Up soon, the Jays have not been great, so they

848
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 1: gotta do something.

849
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 2: I mean, bobash it has not been great either.

850
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 1: That is also a fact. But we've been great here

851
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:23,239
Speaker 1: and we appreciate all of you hanging out with us

852
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 1: on a fun Friday again. We'll be back noon on Monday,

853
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 1: Eastern time. So wherever you live, do that math in

854
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,839
Speaker 1: your brain. That'll do it. For us, but the story

855
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 1: of the game goes on for the Welsh. I'm Joey P.
