00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 1: couple of days together some hands on fantasy baseball stuff,

6
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 1: and we're going to talk about some guys to trade

7
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,960

Speaker 1: to the channel. Drop your comments below. We love hearing

10
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: from all of you. We know it's early, but sometimes

11
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,160
Speaker 1: people panic and make some bad moves, and let's start

12
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,559
Speaker 1: with maybe taking advantage of that wellsh if we can.

13
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 1: So let's start with a guy that you are looking

14
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: to buy based off that first weekend in baseball where

15
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 1: people are hitting that panic button just a little bit

16
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: too hard.

17
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, we talked about the sun leading off, and the

18
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 2: first one that jumped to my mind because you put

19
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 2: it in the negative section of one of our shows,

20
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 2: my guy Shane Boss. Shane Bosse had a not so

21
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 2: stellar debut, but this was also coming off of the

22
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 2: new contract text engine, so he got The was a

23
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 2: sixty eight million I think it was, or whatever it was.

24
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 2: Maybe it's a lot more.

25
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: Giver take a million. Yeah, it's a million between friends.

26
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 2: But Chane Bo's got the deal. And then he goes out.

27
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 2: He gives up four earned runs, just a little bit

28
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 2: less than I think what anybody would have necessarily expected.

29
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 2: But I'm giving him some grace on that, especially if

30
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: people are freaking out and he's going to be walking

31
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,039
Speaker 2: around with you know, he struck out four and five

32
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 2: and third, he's got a six point seventy five RA

33
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 2: that doesn't look good. Everyone's like, oh, he got his money.

34
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 2: He doesn't care anymore. But he's in a much better

35
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 2: environment as a pitcher. Also, something I think that's a

36
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 2: part of this is the pitch mix change. So last

37
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 2: year he was fastball, curveball, cutter, change up, slider, but

38
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 2: the changeup was significantly used this outing in the first

39
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 2: one at least if this thing carries over, kind of

40
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 2: scraped the change up through it like eleven percent of

41
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 2: the time, almost twelve percent of the time last year,

42
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: three percent in the first start, So I'm getting at it.

43
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 2: It was a heavy three pitch mix and knuckleball curveball.

44
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 2: He used the knuckleball more. The fast fall usage went down.

45
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 2: I think in his own percentage was out, so I

46
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 2: think he just had a little bit of an issue

47
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 2: of getting some of those strikes staying in the zone

48
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,959
Speaker 2: a little bit. But his fastball still looks really good.

49
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 2: His knuckle curve had a forty percent with rate. I'm

50
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 2: not saying anybody's looking at that start and being like, oh, shamee,

51
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 2: Bog sucks and it's not good. Shame Boss is a

52
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: little fringy.

53
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: And the like sometimes some shaky outings here and there,

54
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: but also like ownership percentage, like he was like a

55
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: guy that was like outside the top forty.

56
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 2: I could justifiably see people in ten team leagues being like, oh,

57
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 2: I need to probably move off of Shane Boz. I

58
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 2: don't think that's the case here. This is a guy

59
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 2: that I'm going to look to buy if people do

60
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 2: feel weird about it, because the fastball was still good.

61
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 2: I think the strikeout rate is still going to be there.

62
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 2: He ended up having only a nineteen percent k percentage

63
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 2: in that first one, but once things get going and

64
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 2: he's hitting the zone more, I think that's gonna pump

65
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 2: way up. So I think there's a really good opportunity

66
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 2: to buy Shane Boz as a backend rotation guy that

67
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 2: still has a ton of upside after a less than

68
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 2: in stellar first start.

69
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 1: Easy one for me is Bobashett. He's my by of

70
00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: the New York Mets. Look, I know he struck at

71
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: a time already over the weekend, but on opening day, well,

72
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 1: you had a thirteen pitch at bat. It was incredible.

73
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: We're hyper ventilating and we're panicking. And this is the

74
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: same thing that happens all the time. We get big

75
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,959
Speaker 1: stars who signed new contracts, especially in big markets like

76
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: New York, and there's a little bit of pressing. Crowd

77
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: gets on you a little bit. It's gonna be fine.

78
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: This is a career two ninety three hitter, a career

79
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: guy with an eight hundred ops. Bobaschett knows how to hit.

80
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: He didn't forget he's playing a new position. Sure, that's

81
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 1: gonna enter into it a little bit too. I think

82
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: there's an adjustment period mentally for that too. He'll be fine.

83
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about Bobachett at all, but it is

84
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,839
Speaker 1: hilarious because the hyperventilating of the social media stuff, which

85
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: again it starts to enter people's spherees. They are on

86
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: their phones all the time. They're looking through stuff like,

87
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: oh wow, Bobachet's must be the worst baseball player ever

88
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: because he struck out a bunch over the week.

89
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 2: But also the met the Mets are the most self hating,

90
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 2: probably like virals is a.

91
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 1: Self loathing metfan, I would agree.

92
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 2: But I'm saying anything happens, and there's an army of

93
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 2: Mets twitters that are gonna go.

94
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: Out and take advantage of it, is what I'm saying.

95
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: Boba Sheet is a great hitter. I'm sure by the

96
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: time we turn around into you know, deep into the

97
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,119
Speaker 1: month of April and then start going deeper into May,

98
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: bobashe will be just fine. So those are two players

99
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: we're looking to buy. We're gonna get to the cells

110

Speaker 2: But just not always together. That's that's a sad thing.

111
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 2: It's not always going to be us together. But you

112
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 2: know that's gonna be a couple of shows.

113
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: Who knows where the world will take us, Welsh take

114
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 1: us instead to a guy that you're already going hmm,

115
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 1: it's a heck of a starter. Maybe I'm gonna take

116
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: advantage of what I've seen so far in Major League

117
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 1: Baseball and maybe dangle a player out there for anybody

118
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: who might want to overpay possible.

119
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 2: All Right, So this one is tough. I think honestly

120
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 2: buying or selling anybody after three or four games is

121
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 2: really tough. I do want to I'm going to preface

122
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 2: this now in saying that I think overreaction really hurts

123
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 2: you more than anything else in the early stages of

124
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 2: fantasy baseball. I think every ANALYSTI is going to agree

125
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 2: with that. So take it all with a grain of salt.

126
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 2: That being said, I did have two players, one of

127
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 2: them I wanted to say, but I am saving that

128
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 2: player for next week because I want to get one

129
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 2: more start in before I can like really like dive

130
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 2: into my though that start could lead to.

131
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 1: Me being like, dang it, I missed the window.

132
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 2: I might miss the window to be like really smart

133
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 2: and snarky about it. But the play I'm gonna go

134
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 2: with was a player that I was kind of out

135
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 2: on in draft season. I think that's really the approach

136
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 2: you should do, Like, I just want to double down

137
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 2: after what I would say is like a pretty decent start.

138
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 2: It's definitely not like a tremendously crazy big start. But

139
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 2: Pete crow Armstrong is someone I was kind of avoiding

140
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 2: in drafts and I'm still avoiding. And I think it's

141
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 2: a weird situation, like I don't own shares, but if

142
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 2: I own shares, I would put him out there. But

143
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 2: I think the early onset is something that continues to

144
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 2: help if you did want to get out three zero

145
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 2: eight batting average. He's got a couple stolen bases. But

146
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 2: the big thing I'm throwing back out you is the

147
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,719
Speaker 2: issues are still there, it's still prevalent. He has, you know,

148
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 2: bottom third of the league K percentage currently, his wift

149
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 2: rate bottom quarter of the league. His chase rate is

150
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 2: one of the worst in the league. Again, very very

151
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 2: small sample size I'm throwing out to you, but it's

152
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,479
Speaker 2: all still the same. He actually doesn't have a registered

153
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 2: barrel currently. His barrel percentage, according to Baseball Savant.

154
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 1: Is zero.

155
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 2: He is hitting the ball harder, his K numbers look

156
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 2: like a tiny bit lower, but he's not able to

157
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 2: pull the ball currently, even though he's getting the ball

158
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 2: in the air. That's something to watch for. And he

159
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,359
Speaker 2: struggles against lefties. So what I'm getting at is like

160
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 2: the stuff is still all there. The things I'm looking

161
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 2: for these players to turn it round are did you

162
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 2: change the big warts? Can you hit lefties? Are you

163
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 2: striking out less? He's not, He's barreling less right now. Again,

164
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 2: it is so early to even take the stuff that's

165
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 2: happened early on as an excuse why it can be

166
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 2: kind of nutty. I understand that. But what I'm saying

167
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 2: is like, there's some good statistical results and then the

168
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 2: underlying things are still showing to me as worrisome signs

169
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 2: from last year, so I'm still out selling. So this

170
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 2: is just more of a confirmation of a player that

171
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 2: I didn't really want in draft season, and I think

172
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 2: I'd like to get out, especially knowing he was like

173
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 2: a top thirty player taken, you know, top thirty, thirty

174
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 2: five player taken. I think there's a legitimate chance he's

175
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 2: not a top one hundred player this year. His big

176
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 2: stolen bases and power numbers could tell us otherwise, but

177
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 2: I still think like there's an opportunity to get out.

178
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 2: So pe K Armstrong is a player that I am selling.

179
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: For me early on. It's one of the fun stories

180
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: of Major League baseball. It's Munataka Murakami who has three

181
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: hits and three home runs, and that's great, that's super fun.

182
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: You probably got him cheap, and you think, my goodness,

183
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: it doesn't get better than this. Some people had very

184
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: high expectations for him. I always thought he would be

185
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 1: a twenty five to thirty home run guy. He's got

186
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: enough a terrific start. Obviously it's an unsustainable one. But

187
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: to me, this is what happens in the major leagues.

188
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: Every single year. We get rookies, we get players coming

189
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: from abroad different spots, and they get challenged with fastballs

190
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: right away, because that makes a pitcher's life much easier.

191
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: Right you have the game plan against the guy here,

192
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: you go, can you hear it?

193
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 2: Is?

194
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: Can you hit it? Okay? Good? Once you start proving that,

195
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 1: then they start really trying to game plan. They find

196
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,079
Speaker 1: your weaknesses, and it becomes a little bit of a

197
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,199
Speaker 1: different game because they start to make adjustments. And I'm

198
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: not saying Murakami's not good enough to make adjustments. We'll

199
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 1: see if he can. I don't know if he's good

200
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: enough yet, and if he gets off to a red

201
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 1: hot April, which it seems like he's going to keep

202
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 1: this in mind too. Last year we talked about some players.

203
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 1: I remember last year, I was here in Arizona during

204
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: the epic Tyler Soderstrom home run streak where he just

205
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 1: get hitting home runs every day, and I said, look,

206
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 1: he's not gonna hit home runs every single day. He's

207
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: not gonna hit nine home runs in a month again.

208
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:58,839
Speaker 1: And he didn't. He had no more than five his

209
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,839
Speaker 1: Sworderstrom a nice player, yes, but Marikami. The point I

210
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,079
Speaker 1: think I'm making Welsh is this is a player's gotten

211
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 1: off to such a hot start. If people are struggling

212
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 1: at third base or first base, all of a sudden,

213
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,079
Speaker 1: there's a guy here with massive power they're showing before

214
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: you get more exposure to the league, this could be

215
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: a period where his value might be at its zenith,

216
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: and you should consider who am I overpay for a

217
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: guy like Murakami?

218
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, I actually think both sides. First off,

219
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 2: the second part, you know, I agree with We talked

220
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 2: about this on leading off, and I put Murakami as

221
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 2: a player that I think you can sell for the

222
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 2: reasons you just said that. I'm looking for the person

223
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 2: that's willing to, like, really overpay. But I actually here's

224
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 2: a little caveat. I love the Sodastrim comp you just gave,

225
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 2: because Sodastrim ended up being a decently valuable player throughout

226
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 2: the season. Was he as valuable in the second half

227
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 2: as he was the first half?

228
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,319
Speaker 1: Absolutely? Not that change.

229
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 2: But that's actually how I feel about Maurakami. I don't

230
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 2: feel like Maurakami is going to be a two hundred

231
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 2: hitter like the projections put out there. If he is

232
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 2: a two thirty to two forty hitter, he is a success.

233
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 2: Based on the home run total and where you took him.

234
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,439
Speaker 2: If he's a two sixty or two seventy hitter, he's

235
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 2: a league winner. But whatever happens, it's not going to

236
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 2: be at this current rate. So I love your comp

237
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 2: because yes, I agree right now, if you can sell

238
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 2: him at the tippy top, really high price, I do

239
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 2: think it's worth it because he's overreact because he's going

240
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 2: to come back down. But then at the same token,

241
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,439
Speaker 2: if someone's not willing to pay the high price, I'm

242
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 2: not looking to just get rid of him because I

243
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 2: think he is going to still be a valuable player.

244
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 2: And Soda Stream is a really interesting name you use

245
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 2: that it could be different players but maybe similar markers.

246
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 2: So I agree with you on the mark comedy side.

247
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: Right. So those are four names for you, but we
