You a little surprised there, Rico. 83 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 2: I saw you talking before we were going on. You 84 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 2: were talking on mute, and I was thinking, okay, you 85 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 2: know his kids asked him a question. Your wife's asking 86 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 2: you a question. I didn't think it was Joey P. 87 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 2: But there was something in the back of my head 88 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 2: that thought something might be up. But that was fun. 89 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 2: I didn't expect that. 90 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: I did, but I also was not fully expecting that. 91 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: But Joey P in the house. Wait wait is it 92 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: a Kaisa Trucks day? I didn't even look. I've done 93 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: two kinds of trucks reads. All right, that's enough. Yeah, 94 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: I've done. I think we're I think we're good. That's 95 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: Kaisa trucks home for the canoli. That's why these canolis 96 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: are so strong. Kaisa trucks. No Lo low c's for 97 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: the Canoli's all right, little chaos to start the show. 98 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: Thank you guys for all hanging out. Special appearance Joe 99 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: Piezapia and the great cousin Donnie. We thought we guys 100 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: would start you guys off a little bit of fun. 101 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 1: Obviously the audio people probably not loving quite as much 102 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: because of the chaos. There not a great idea, by 103 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: the way, to eat a canoli at the top of 104 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: a show when you have no water or anything like that. 105 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 1: Mister Joe Rico correct. 106 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 2: I'm Italian. It comes up naturally to me eating connoly, 107 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 2: but you definitely need to wash it down with something. 108 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 2: Go get an espresso. 109 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: Yeah no, I don't drink coffee, but I do need 110 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: some caffeine percent all right. Yeah, now, I'm not a 111 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: coffee guy. I don't do any of that stuff. I 112 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: can't do it. But we can do all the baseball 113 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: here for you guys. We got a ton of stuff 114 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: here that will not include mister Joe Pizzapia. We got bets, 115 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: we got breakdowns, We've got some chaos in the baseball world. 116 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: We found out about and I was out there hanging 117 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: with a certain somebody, so be on the lookout for that. 118 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: We're gonna do here very shortly. But let's dig into 119 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: that co It was really good, by the way, very 120 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: very phenomenal. Canoli back at it onto the baseball world. 121 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: Tyler soda Strom one for five, league leading ninth home 122 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: run yesterday against the White Sox. He does not stop 123 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: hit it interesting. Rotal World put this out there. He 124 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: is a three to two slider that he crushed like 125 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: one oh four. I think really interesting about that too, 126 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: and then mentioning that it was a slider. Is like 127 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: his success on off speed stuff so far this year, 128 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 1: Like he's hitting everything across the board. I did a 129 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: show with Bogman where we were really like going hard 130 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: into the Tyler Soderstrom stuff. What do you think the 131 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: line is on Soderstrom? Well, I did the question of 132 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: Christian Walker or Tyler Soderstrom rest of season. Where would 133 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 1: you go with that? 134 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 2: I think it would probably be Man. I hate to 135 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 2: be like a prisoner of the moment, but it's probably Soderstrom, 136 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 2: just every so slightly. I still really like Walker, We 137 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 2: talked about that this week, but Soderstrom has just been brilliant. 138 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 2: And something that I noticed yesterday was doing sleep in 139 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 2: the Bob than Justin and Paul. I forget which one 140 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 2: of us pointed this out, but I think a lot 141 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 2: of people will say, well, he's in a minor league ballpark. 142 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 2: You know, he's going to be taking advantage of these 143 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 2: minor league fences, and that's why he's having success. I'll 144 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 2: Vlotty Junior a couple of years ago. But if you 145 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 2: look at the split so far, nine home games, Soderstrom 146 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 2: has two home runs and he's hitting a buck fifty six. 147 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 2: On the road, he has seven home runs and he's 148 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 2: hitting four thirty nine. So he's not even like a 149 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 2: minor league ballpark merchant. He's just legitimately a power stud. 150 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 2: And I think, you know, if he hit forty home 151 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 2: runs this year at this point, I don't think we 152 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 2: should be surprised. It's mid April, he's got nine already. 153 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 2: He could surpass forty. 154 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 1: Even I'm going to want to be a prisoner at 155 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: the moment either, and this is coming from a very 156 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: hardcore Christian Walker guy. Right now, it's kind of l 157 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: city for me on that. You know, the capital L 158 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 1: on the Welsh for a Christian Walker, and I do 159 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: believe though he's going to turn things around a lot. 160 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: In the hitting profile. I think outside of the strikeouts 161 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: those are up, everything else looks pretty good. He's going 162 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: to start pulling fly balls. He traditionally kind of art slow, 163 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 1: he's kind of streaky. I'm taking Sodastrum. I think Sodastrm 164 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: like my big point too, It is he has such 165 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: a good head start and I think that profile, which 166 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: is elite at this level, even when he comes down, 167 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: I just don't think he's going to come back where 168 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: another player like Christian Walker is going to just catch 169 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: face and we're gonna be like, oh, yeah this, You know, 170 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: we should have had Walker the whole time. 171 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 2: Now. 172 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: I think Sodastrm is going to be consistent all year long, 173 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: and I'm not going to be surprised if he hits 174 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: thirty homers. He's a third of the way there. Practically, 175 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: that ballpark has beneficial. He's hitting the ball better. I 176 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: think we got to be in hardcore and Tyler Soderstrom 177 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: and I made a good move on the the rest 178 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: of season ranks on Fantasy pros and I'll I'll do 179 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: it again. I think there's going to be another move 180 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: because I don't think I have Walker over him. But 181 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: the more we looked into it and talked about it, 182 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: I think I'm in. So that would be a question 183 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: for the chat. Maybe we can even put up a 184 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: pull if we want Christian Walker, Tyler Soderstrom. Where you 185 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: guys at I'm very curious at the level of first 186 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: baseman for everybody for Soda Strong. 187 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: Where do you have him in the rioting as well? 188 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 2: So you have him top ten. 189 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: To pull it out. I want to say I have 190 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: him top I want to say eleven or something like that, 191 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: but I think he might deserve to be inside of 192 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: it like Tristan Cassis or him. Cossus is struggling when 193 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: you get it. It's not going to be Naylor Naylor. 194 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: I'm going to have above him, but I think he's 195 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: right below Naylor, And actually that might be where I 196 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: ended up putting him in the rank, So I'm open 197 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: to it. Yeah, big Soda, So let's see where you 198 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: guys are at on him. Corbin Freakin' Carol has been 199 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: one of the best guys. Barnutt war Number everything is 200 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: telling us He's one of the best in the league. 201 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: But we have been missing the stolen bases. We got 202 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: that back yesterday. Three stolen bases bags are coming back. 203 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 1: The hitting profile is ridiculous. I was actually taking a 204 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: look on Baseball Savant. You can look at the batting 205 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: stance data they have and you can see some of 206 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: the changes. He's actually moved quite a bit forward in 207 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: the plate, brought his feet in a little bit more, 208 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: and that is allowing him to attack the ball with 209 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: that big bat speed and things are going crazy. So 210 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 1: I think I had this trade thing that someone had 211 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: brought to me of like, hey, would you trade Soto 212 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: for Carol? And I'm like, I actually think Carol's the 213 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: play Dynasty and on redraft right now because I believe 214 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: in him. The stolen bases just held him back and 215 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: then they pop back up. So I don't know if 216 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: there's a ton to like go go in on with 217 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: Carol outside of like maybe if you just weren't a believer, 218 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: I don't know where you're at on him, Like do 219 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: you think Corman Carrol, if you could get a one 220 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 1: soda or you could sell down, do you think that's 221 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: the play on Carroll? Like do you believe this new 222 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,839 Speaker 1: hitting version of him is going to stay? 223 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 5: Yeah? 224 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 2: No, I think I came into the season with Carol 225 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 2: ranked ahead of Soto, and I'd still have to have 226 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 2: to stick with that. I think with the shoulder, it 227 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 2: just seems to have fieled itself, which I don't know 228 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 2: how legit that is. Necessarily, I thought that this was 229 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 2: going to be something that eventually needed some kind of procedure. 230 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 2: But he has a twenty percent barrel rate, almost a 231 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 2: sixty percent hard hit rate. His average exit velocity is 232 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 2: ninety five for his career. It had been eighty nine. 233 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 2: The hardest hit balis we're hitting his career came this season. 234 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 2: That one fifteen point eight. I don't like that he's 235 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 2: chasing more. If you look at his O swing percentage, 236 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 2: he's thirty seven percent this season twenty seven for his career. 237 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 2: Swinging strike rate was seven and a half percent last year. 238 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 2: It's thirteen point eight this season. But everything else is fantastic, 239 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 2: Like Corbyn, Carroll could easily be a thirty to fifty 240 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 2: guy this season and win Nashville, get VP and wouldn't surprise. 241 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 1: But we're also kind of moving into a territory where 242 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: maybe he hits more homers than he steals bases. Though 243 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,839 Speaker 1: we don't know what direction that's going to go, it's 244 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: really good to start seeing him steal some bases. I 245 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,679 Speaker 1: have some other cool news for you. I went out 246 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: to the airs on a Diamondbacks facility yesterday and the 247 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: other day Katel Marte was here, and there was kind 248 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: of a word maybe from Katel the other day that 249 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: obviously Tory Lavello was saying that he might not even 250 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 1: back until like mid May. They didn't think he'd be 251 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: back early April. Maybe potentially. Katel had said himself that 252 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: he would like to be back next week. Well, I 253 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: go out there and I got some video and if 254 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: we can put that up Calle of him working. He 255 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 1: looks good. This is Katel. This is my video from yesterday. 256 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 1: He wasn't short, which was getting people kind of worked up. 257 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: He went between second and short, but he was out working. 258 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: This is a little corner field they have at the 259 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: Diamondbacks facility. He's running it out. You can see he's 260 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: got the leg kind of wrapped up, but he's moving, 261 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: doesn't seem to be limping. The arm looks good. This 262 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: was after he did a running session, and then it 263 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 1: followed up with him going doing a private hitting session. 264 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 1: So one more here they had the Pioneer League tryouts 265 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: in the back. But Katel looks solid and we could 266 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: take him at short. But then we had the collab 267 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: of collabs of all time, Joe Rico, I present to 268 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: you Kutel x Welsh because me and Katell we rocked 269 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,119 Speaker 1: it out. Baby, that's right, straight from the show yesterday, 270 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: Me and Katel. It's very bright. He was not constipated. 271 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: I also the eyes were getting me a little bit, 272 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: but Diamondback had up shout out to Rota Waar. Me 273 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: and Katel rocking out as two best friends do. And 274 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: everyone's quest in the world is this right there?

We 277 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 1: could look into it if people wanted it. We had 278 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 1: where in the world We're Welsh and Corman Carroll Well, 279 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: kud Tell and Welsh.

It's the coolest guy in Arizona 282 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 2: and Katel Marte is there as well, so it's a 283 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 2: really good job. 284 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: It's my boy. I love Katel so much. He's like 285 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: one of my favorites. We was before Carol was out there, 286 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: but we took the picture at the facility, got some 287 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: of that scoop video. I got you guys covered, all right, 288 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: we can my horrible smile and face can come off 289 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,719 Speaker 1: of there real quick. But just wanted to share with 290 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: everybody a little bit of could tell action and people 291 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 1: like that, people like that friend of the show, Yeah, 292 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: oh this is a good point. 293 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 2: Stay away, friend of me. 294 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: If he's a friend of the show, that's not good. 295 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: I got to tell you that. Justin Steele just had 296 00:12:58,200 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: surgery today and he did. 297 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 2: Think every So it's Cruval Mayor's hate. 298 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 1: What are you talking here, Mayor? You must be behind. 299 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: I think he's behind and he's just seeing the segment 300 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: win show. Oh look at that. Oh someone's negative. Oh 301 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 1: something isn't to his liking. Shut up, Mayor, get out here. 302 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: All right, let's get back into it. Christopher Sanchez picked 303 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: up his second victory of the season twelve strikeouts over 304 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,079 Speaker 1: seven innings against the Giants. We told somebody on a show, 305 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 1: I think it was on Wednesday. Do not get rid 306 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,959 Speaker 1: of Christopher Sanchez, no matter what you do. Where do 307 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,199 Speaker 1: you think Sanchez has vaulted as far as value. 308 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 2: Goes top fifteen or top twenty starting pitcher? For me, 309 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 2: there was an interesting article that Mayor and Worm went 310 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 2: through yesterday on the cycle. It was ESPN did like 311 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 2: an ace rankings, just going through all the aces in baseball, 312 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 2: and they had Christopher Sanchez at like eleven or something 313 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 2: like that, and it was Kylie McDaniel. ESPN can get 314 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 2: kind of a bad reputation. M Kylie knows what he's 315 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 2: talking about. You know. When you start seeing that kind 316 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 2: of thing, maybe he's closer to ten than fifteen. But 317 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 2: without a doubt, for me, he's a top twenty starting pitcher, 318 00:13:58,240 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 2: no question. 319 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 1: You know, he was one of those guys that popped. 320 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 1: We talked a bunch about this in the draft season 321 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 1: that some of the projections just had it right, even 322 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 1: though it was an outlier. I think it was. 323 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 2: I don't. 324 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: I think it might have been ATC that had him 325 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: as like a top twenty pitcher as far as war 326 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 1: goes the bat or no, No, you know what, I 327 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: think it was the bat because I think I highlighted 328 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: it with Cardi, but both of those systems had him 329 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: way higher than he was being ranked, and he just 330 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: seemed like it was an obvious pickup for him. I 331 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: like the sustainability. Would you rather have Ooh, that's too much? 332 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: Would you rather have rest of season? Let Freddy Peralta 333 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: or Chris Sanchez? 334 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 2: Chris Sanchez? For me, I like per Alta, but Sanchez 335 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 2: seems to be on another level at this point. That 336 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 2: change up is one of the best pitches in baseball. 337 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: It is, and he added the cutter for more strikeouts. 338 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: Chotto Imanaga or Chris Sanchez Sanchez. 339 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 2: I've been a little bit out on Imanaga this year. 340 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 6: Out Here, there's no one way of doing things, no 341 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 6: one written rules, and no shortage.

He's round with soft 367 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 7: pillowy bread hey filled with delicious PEBNJ. 368 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 2: Are you talking about yourself? 369 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 7: And you can take him anywhere? 370 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 2: Why do you invite? 371 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 1: And we are out of time?

By 377 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: the way, the poll that we did before eighty three 378 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: percent Soda Man eighty three percent over Walker. I mean, 379 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: you know, recency and stuff like that, but I think 380 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: we're all in. We're definitely all in on the Soda Man, 381 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: and his valuation has just gone through the roof. Kumar 382 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:49,239 Speaker 1: Rocker recorded his first MLB victory. More importantly, eight strikeouts. 383 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: He picked up three run ball. You know, he's still 384 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: kind of in the streamy type of range. Is there 385 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: any takeaways for Kumar Rocker? Is he in a circle 386 00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: of trust at all? 387 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 2: For you, I'd kind of given up after that Seattle start. 388 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 2: This was definitely a positive, but there's still a lot 389 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 2: in his profile that worries me. Stuff comes in a 390 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 2: little bit below average. He's giving up a ton of 391 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 2: hard contact eleven percent barrel fifty one on the hard hit. 392 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 2: The strikeout rate for the season is only seventeen percent. 393 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 2: The ERA is at six thirty eight, and a lot 394 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 2: of the estimators are better, but they're not like drastically better. 395 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 2: They're pretty not bad, like a three eighty six. Sierra 396 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 2: is all right, but I just don't know if he's 397 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 2: quite ready to trust yet, especially for the majority of 398 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 2: players in ten and twelve team leagues. I play in 399 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 2: a lot of deeper leagues. I'll speculate on him a 400 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,239 Speaker 2: little bit this weekend, and like fifteen teamers if you're 401 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 2: playing an AL only, for sure, but if you're in 402 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 2: a twelve team standard size Yahoo or ESPN league, I 403 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 2: just don't think I'm there yet. 404 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 1: It's pretty interesting because like he has to live off 405 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 1: the slider. That was always his issue. The sinker and fastball. 406 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: They is not doing anything. They're getting hit really hard, 407 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: They're not whiffing anybody evs or like ninety two ninety 408 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: three batting average is high. But his slider is absolutely 409 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 1: elite pitch and he throws it more than anybody. So 410 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: he's kind of doing like the Hunter Green. But he 411 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: just doesn't have a power fastball. So I'm really not 412 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 1: sure how he's gonna make it out of there. By 413 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: the way, we found out the craziest story. Arico texts 414 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 1: me and goes, dude, we were betting against Spider Man. 415 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: We found out the Patrick Corbin against bet we had. 416 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 1: We're all we're trying to do for two days is 417 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 1: bet against Patrick Corbin. He's gonna get blow out. Blah 418 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: blah blah. Then he ends up looking like Cy Young well, 419 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 1: it might have been performance enhancing, because if we can show, 420 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: Ai has told us he turned into Spider Man. He 421 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,640 Speaker 1: could hardly walk. We found out because he was bit 422 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: by a venomous spider before the game and apparently had 423 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 1: new powers, new powers where you could throw sliders at 424 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: any point and fastballs that Mike Trout wouldn't even swing at. 425 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: He threw Mike Trout in his first at bat a 426 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 1: fastball down the freaking gut and Trout just stared at it. 427 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,400 Speaker 1: But there was performance enhancing. He was bit by a spider. 428 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: That's AI's version of what happened. I think that was 429 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: probably pretty accurate. And it was his left hand too. 430 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: It's exactly impressive. 431 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 2: I don't even know anymore, Like the gods are just 432 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 2: making fun of us at this point. I think it's 433 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 2: it's hilarious. It's a venomous spider bite the day of 434 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 2: a star. Maybe that's why they were doing like the 435 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 2: moving around with Molly and everything like that. But I 436 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 2: don't even know how to analyze this. It's just just ridiculous. 437 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,640 Speaker 1: Well, that actually does make sense. That makes sense because 438 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 1: he was supposed to pitch that other day. Yeah, and 439 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 1: then you know apparently the one nine nine nine nine 440 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: Spider traveled through the Spider Verse and it gave him powers. 441 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 1: And I don't know, like, if Patrick Corbyn has another 442 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: the Corbyn Verse, that's one hundred percent right. If Patrick 443 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: Corbyn has another one, I think we're gonna have the 444 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: new trend in baseball where guys are gonna just be like, 445 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 1: you know how, like parents will have like chicken pox. 446 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: Parties are just gonna have like Spider By parties, and 447 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: we're just gonna have a bunch of superhumans. And we 448 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: had Corbyn Parker apparently, so we were going up against 449 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 1: Spider Man. The odds were always against us. A couple 450 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: of other things. Braves recalled Alex Redugo from Triple A, 451 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: Brian de Lacruz down anything for you whatsoever on Verdugo and. 452 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 2: Only fifteen teamers maybe, like I know, only for sure, 453 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 2: fifteen teamers maybe, but the majority of listeners can just 454 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 2: ignore this. 455 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,479 Speaker 1: I think I'm pretty on that as well. And then 456 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: Griffin Canning was awesome yesterday on the Cardinals struck out 457 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: eight two and one now three four three E Ray. 458 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: Do you think Canning has moved up? I guess he 459 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: was a little bit already out of like the streamer range. 460 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: But is your level of confidence moved up in canning 461 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: as he's stacking up some of these strikeouts. 462 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 2: A little bit. I think he's fine as like a 463 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 2: streamer if you see a good matchup. But a lot 464 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 2: of the things we usually look for, they're not amazing necessarily, 465 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 2: you know, double digit walk rate, fifty three percent hard 466 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 2: hit against. This stuff is very pedestrian, ninety one overall stuff. 467 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 2: Plus I don't know. I think if you see a 468 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 2: good matchup, if he's facing a bottom ten or fifteen offense, 469 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 2: you can think about streaming him. But I'm not running 470 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,879 Speaker 2: to the waiver wire to grab him. 471 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: Shout out to our people. By the way, we had 472 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: a couple of new subs. We hit a sub goal 473 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 1: before we started up MSILV with some numbers subscribed with Prime. 474 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 1: We appreciate you doing it for free, getting the home 475 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: run contest a bunch of new follows. So shout out 476 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: to you guys forgetting us everywhere we need to be. 477 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: Let's talk to some of the people. Hopefully Mike Mayer 478 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: is okay with it. I know we should do a 479 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: couple five minute check in to see that he's good 480 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: with the segment, so I think he'll be good with this, 481 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: but I don't know. We'll see. Let's see, Lucius, it's 482 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: good afternoon. I just managed to trade Torque, Pepio and 483 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: Alvarado for Christian Walker and Hunter Brown? Did I do good? 484 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: For context? I have Hoffman and thanks to Welsh, I 485 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: made sure I got munios. My boy. It's a five 486 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: x five headhead ops league. So you managed to trade. 487 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 1: So you traded Torquepio and Alvarado to get Walker and 488 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 1: Hunter Brown. That's why I'm reading that. Are you doing 489 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: the same Are you reading it that way? 490 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 2: I'm reading it that way. I would personally prefer the trio. 491 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 2: Torkosen has been fantastic. I think that he can probably 492 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 2: be something similar to what we saw a couple of 493 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 2: years ago, thirty Homers, maybe ninety Ribis. I've always been 494 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 2: a Pepio guy. Admittedly it hasn't been a great start 495 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,199 Speaker 2: for him with the command, and Alvarado seems like he 496 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 2: is locked in as the closer for now. The other 497 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 2: side of that, Walker we've talked about his concern I 498 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 2: like Hunter Brown a lot, but I think the trio 499 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 2: is more appealing to me. 500 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: I mean honest with you, I think in like a 501 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 1: month this could swing back to that side, Like you 502 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: might have the two best players in the trade. So 503 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: I'm cool with it from that perspective. But at the 504 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 1: same time, like I think Torque has kind of leveled solid. 505 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,920 Speaker 1: Pepio is not like super far off from Hunter Brown 506 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 1: and you got the big closer, you know, I think 507 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: it doesn't. I don't think it looks like a win 508 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 1: right now, but it definitely couldn't. It's a great question, 509 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: good guy Dolan, I was offered, would in Sanchez for 510 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 1: his Schwarber? I feel like I've been given a little 511 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: too giving up a little too much. Thoughts he has 512 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: Carol two, I'd be asking for too much if I 513 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: ask for him instead, so would Yeah. Wood In Sanchez 514 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 1: for Schwarber is an insanely stupid trade. We just talked 515 00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: about Sanchez being a top fifteen to twenty pitcher. James 516 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: wood In Schwarber's values are pretty even right there. Yeah, 517 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: I actually probably. I mean, he's not gonna accept Carol, 518 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: but I would ask for Carol instead. I'm not doing 519 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 1: that trade. I don't, I can be honest with you. 520 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: I'm not sure. I'm doing Wood for Schwarber just straight 521 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: up yeah, that's on the basis unless it's an OBP league. 522 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 2: That duo was pretty appealing, would I mean, it's funny. 523 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 2: I was worried about the launch angle stuff with Wood. 524 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 2: The launch angle's gotten worse, but he's hitting the home run. 525 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 2: So what do I know? 526 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 1: I don't know. By the way, did I tell you this? 527 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,360 Speaker 1: Someone just brought up torpedo bats. I think I said 528 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: this in ITL. I went to another game after hanging 529 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,120 Speaker 1: with my very good friend Katel Marte and I went 530 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: to the Royals and was it Royals and Mariners playing 531 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: an extended spring training game. And a dude broke a bat, 532 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 1: and every player went like you got in trouble, And 533 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: I'm like, what are they doing? He broke a torpedo 534 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: bat and they all like they grabbed it and like 535 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: carried it over. They treated it like this, like baby, 536 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: and they were all looking at it because he broke 537 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: it and they had to give him a normal bat. 538 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:00,640 Speaker 1: He did not get a hit at that, by the way, 539 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: but I thought you guys would like that. They were. 540 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: It's going to probably be a thing long term. Jake 541 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,719 Speaker 1: bal I got Nick Kurtz in a minor league' s pop, 542 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 1: but most likely not for long. I have Alonzo at first, 543 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: Naylor at corner, and Torklesen eate utility. Who rides the 544 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,439 Speaker 1: pine for Kurts. It would be only torque if someone's 545 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 1: riding the pine. But like you might have to go 546 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: through some bumps with Kurts, like I don't. We shouldn't 547 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: anoin Kurtz when someone was like, hey, I want to 548 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 1: drop Naylor for Kurts. No, don't do that, Like, don't 549 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:27,679 Speaker 1: we don't know what this is going to look like, 550 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,719 Speaker 1: and there's some bumps in the roads with rookies. You 551 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 1: want Kurts if it clicks early. So I would probably 552 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: let Kurtz ride some pine over Torque. I don't know, 553 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 1: unless like maybe it's a really good matchup for the 554 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 1: A's and they're at home early on it's torque. 555 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would base on the way everybody's been talking 556 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 2: about Kurtz. I would see, you know, off put them 557 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 2: on the trade block in your league and see what 558 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 2: the offers are. You might get a crazy offer. You 559 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 2: might get offered Naylor for him straight up, or another 560 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,199 Speaker 2: top hundred type of player. You never know, You never know. 561 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 2: He might come up to the bigs and hit twenty 562 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 2: five homers this year. He might be back in Triple 563 00:24:57,920 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 2: A in three weeks. You just you just never know 564 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 2: this is a good time to sell a prospect. 565 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 1: The best time is usually before and the valuations are crazy. 566 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:07,679 Speaker 1: I would love to know. I don't know if we 567 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 1: asked this the other day. We just did so many shows. 568 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 1: But especially to the YouTube audience. If you guys have 569 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 1: seen some Nick Kurtz trades, put them in the comments. 570 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: I would love to see what some Nick trade Nick 571 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: Kurts trades are looking like, like some actual ones, because 572 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: I know there's gonna be some weird ones, but I 573 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 1: have a feeling there are some insane ones, like you know, 574 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 1: when we're talking about Naylor here, all right, a couple more, 575 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: then we're gonna get to some more news and we'll 576 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: pop back to a few Is it time to drop Tovar? 577 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: And then someone ELSEO said, drop Tovar with Netto being activated? 578 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 2: Eh, yeah, I'd be fine with that, dropping Tovar to 579 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 2: activate Neto. I'm not a big Tovar guy, though, so 580 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 2: that might be a little bit of a blind spot 581 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 2: for me, but I prefer Neto. 582 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: Uh Kirene Paris or Dylan Moore. 583 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 2: Neither really, but I'd go Paris if I had to 584 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 2: choose one. 585 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would go Kyrien Paris right here, But Dylan 586 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: Moore's look good, yea very much early on. Let's do 587 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: one more. I got Tolia Johannio cleared through waivers. I 588 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 1: need to scoop him up, right, I have totally Johannio 589 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: cleared waivers. Peripherals look good, crazy low Babbitt. Last year, 590 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,199 Speaker 1: Suarez is close to Tolia's ceiling this year, that's a 591 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: good way to put it. Would you drop Tolia for 592 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 1: Johannio Eohannio's also, you know, obviously struggled. 593 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,399 Speaker 2: I would. I think there's gonna be some ups and 594 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,640 Speaker 2: downs with Suarez, But I think if you just look 595 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 2: at like the preseason projections, they were still factoring in 596 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 2: his Seattle numbers a little bit too much. So I 597 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 2: don't know if he's going to get second half twenty 598 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 2: twenty four Suarez all the time. He might be a 599 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 2: little bit streaky, but I think he's still probably a 600 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 2: thirty home run guy or somewhere close to it. I 601 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 2: don't really trust Togglia much. 602 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, totallya totally. Yeah, the G is confusing, Yeah, yeah, yeah, 603 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 1: no I want you ever we all want to say toglia, 604 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 1: but it is totally. I just remember Buddy Dennis, who 605 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 1: does signings, he had that he had a signing with 606 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: Tolia and they talked about that in the very first signing. 607 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: He was just like, yeah, the g's silence. So it's 608 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: very interesting. But you know what, I'm gonna put the 609 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: G back on until you start hitting. You don't deserve 610 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: the silent G right now when you're not making me 611 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:04,400 Speaker 1: look rookie, lookie. Twins are promoting one of their top prospects, 612 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 1: Luke Keishel, twenty two year old second baseman triple a's 613 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 1: this year. The start is fine, he's in in two 614 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 1: sixty one, about a three eighty obp's got a homer, 615 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 1: bunch of stolen bases, great walk to strikeout ratio more 616 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: eleven to nine, so close to not more walks and strikeouts, 617 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 1: but really really great hit tool. I would say this, 618 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: I don't think he has a long long term sustainability. 619 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: Anything could happen, of course, but in the short term, 620 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 1: if you've got like the you know, there's no one 621 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: out there and you want to pick him up. I 622 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: think from a fantasy value standpoint, he's one of the 623 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: higher valued guys we've had vnup. I'd rather have Keishel 624 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 1: long term, but it's just because like Willie Cashro's banged up, 625 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 1: Carlos Grasco's banged up, Miranda went down and then he 626 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 1: got banged up, like everybody's just hurt. Brooks Lee just 627 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: got back. I just don't think there's long term sustainability. 628 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 1: So I'm not sure how hard I would be speculating. 629 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: I don't know if you have anything to add on Keshel. 630 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,640 Speaker 2: Not really, I'll leave the prospect stuff to you. 631 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 1: Well maybe this one. Though the Brewers are calling up 632 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: Caleb Durban Friday, and Caleb Durban is a stolen based monster. 633 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 1: There's some power in there. I don't know what the 634 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: long term outlook again, I just don't know what that's 635 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: going to look like. But he is a guy that 636 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 1: I would speculate on. Ironically, I think I would actually 637 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 1: speculate on Durbin over Keshel right now, even though I've 638 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: got Luke as a higher valued prospect. But you want 639 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: stolen bases, you should look at Caleb Durban. So that 640 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 1: is what I'm letting you guys know. Three up and 641 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: three down. Riley Green went three for five, drove in 642 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,640 Speaker 1: a pair of runs on Thursday. Why is this important? 643 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: Because every human being was like, why is no one 644 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 1: talking about Riley Green? He stinks we got to be 645 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 1: done with him. He had like a forty something percent 646 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: K percentage, finally had his big three hit game. I'm 647 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: a little down on this in general. Do you have 648 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 1: any positive takes off of him finally picking up some hits, 649 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: even though it's been a really slow start, anything on 650 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 1: Riley Green? 651 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 2: For you? It was a nice game. I'm still a 652 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 2: bit worried the strikeouts being where they are thirty nine 653 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 2: percent and still like that is that's tough. That's tough 654 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 2: to come to build around, especially when you're looking at 655 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 2: some of the play discipline metrics. He's swinging a lot 656 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 2: more of this season than he has previously. He's up 657 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 2: to about seven percent in that department. He's swinging more 658 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 2: outside of the zone. He's making less contact in the zone. 659 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 2: I just I feel a little bit worried about him still. 660 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 2: I've got a lot of questions about him, and there's 661 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 2: been a lot of talk about his struggles, at least 662 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 2: in my DMS, I think that in a really shallow league, 663 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 2: I'm not as married to him as I would have 664 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 2: been even a month ago. I think if it's like 665 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 2: a ten team league and there's a hot bat on 666 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 2: the wire, I wouldn't mind moving on. That might be 667 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,479 Speaker 2: a hot take. But I'm kind of down on him 668 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 2: right now. 669 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: Well, I'm kind of with you on that, and then 670 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 1: we're going to pair this together. Mark Viento's hit his 671 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 1: first homer of the year on Thursday in that win 672 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: behind Griffin Canning. Both of those guys in major struggles 673 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: that have had some big questions finally have a good performance. 674 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: But that is going to take us to this week's 675 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 1: chase seeing challenges brought to you by Microsoft. Just like 676 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 1: athletes who push boundaries and redefine what's possible, business decision 677 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: makers today are turning challenges into opportunities. Microsoft meets you 678 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: where you are with tools and guidance to help you 679 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: make an impact with safe, secure AI solutions. Whatever challenge 680 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 1: you're facing, Microsoft empowers you with the expert expertise to 681 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 1: say bring it on. And in this segment, we are 682 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: highlighting those underperformers Riley Green and Mark Viento's are two 683 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 1: prime examples of where the rubber meets the road in fantasy. 684 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: Sometimes there are so many players in this very early 685 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 1: onset where all we've told you guys is like, be patient, 686 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: don't overreact. We are starting to at least see the 687 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 1: path where early overreaction is meeting needing to make changes 688 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 1: in the season. We're like three weeks into the season. 689 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: Things are becoming a little bit more reality. And with 690 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: that come these players. Riley Green specifically has had a 691 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 1: horrific bad start, as I said, over forty percent strikeout rate. 692 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: He gets some hits. Mark Viento's hitting like under one sixty, 693 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: gets his first homer, But is it enough for these 694 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: guys to meet the challenge to bounce back? In Fantasy Personally, 695 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: both of these guys are on a shorter list where 696 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 1: if I was an a TEND team, I probably am 697 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: more comfortable moving on from them. Can they bounce back? Yes, 698 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: both of them have extreme hard hit tools. Riley Green 699 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 1: has also shown a really great ability for barreling. But 700 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: the strikeout rates are really really bad right now, and 701 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 1: the question is going to come to you, are they 702 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 1: going to meet the challenge, are they going to be 703 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: a fantasy guy that you are willing to keep backing? 704 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: That's it for this week's chasing challenges.

All right, the rest the 710 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: auctionally only one more on the three up. Edward of 711 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 1: Rodriguez struck out nine. He has been a strikeout monster 712 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: this year. Against the Marlins, he gave up three runs. 713 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: He's pretty inconsistent, though. Do you are you comfortable with 714 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: him as just at least a streamer because of the 715 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 1: strikeout potential. 716 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that you could probably roster him in 717 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 2: twelve teamers, and you know, the matchup was really nice 718 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 2: for him. So I was recommending him like all over 719 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 2: the place the other day. But I don't know that 720 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 2: he's somebody that I trust for all thirty two starts. 721 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 2: I think you kind of got to pick and choose 722 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 2: your spots then a little bit. 723 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: I kind of agree with that on the down ToJ Bradley. 724 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: He was hit up six runs, five and a third 725 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 1: against the Yankees with a loss. Tanner Biby gave up 726 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: six runs and five and two thirds and a loss 727 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: of the Orioles. Jordan Hicks, also not super great, gave 728 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 1: up five runs over seven innings of work. Let me 729 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 1: ask you this, who are you more worried about? Tos 730 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: Bradley or Tanner Biby? Not asking you who is necessarily better, 731 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,479 Speaker 1: but your level of worry is higher with which one 732 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: of those pitchers. 733 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 2: Might be a little bit higher with Biby like that, 734 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 2: There's been really nothing encouraging. Strikeouts are down, walks her up, 735 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 2: he's giving up a fifteen percent barrel rate, stuff his 736 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 2: way down. There's there's not a lot to really be 737 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 2: encouraged by so far. He's kind of alternating between good 738 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 2: and bad starts to this point. With Taj, I still 739 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 2: think there's a lot more there. The strikeouts have been 740 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 2: pretty solid. He's always been a little bit shaky with 741 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 2: the command eight percent walk right previously. He's at ten 742 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 2: percent this year. I think if I had to invest 743 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 2: in one or the other, it would be probably Bradley. 744 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 2: I think that's it. 745 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: I feel like it would have gone the other direction 746 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: if people were answering that. I think the strikeout potential, 747 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm really torn. I think it would 748 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: be I think it would be Byby, but Bradley's really 749 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: still interesting with the strikeout potential. But this has just 750 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 1: been inconsistencies that I'm just not sure one hundred percent by. 751 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: On the injury front, Grayson Rodriguez was scratched from his 752 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: schedule bullpen session on Thursday. Oh double ooh, I don't 753 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 1: I'm not feeling good about that. The investment was already 754 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: really risky if you were going to have him mid season. 755 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: To me, that is at minimum probably two to three 756 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,719 Speaker 1: weeks more that's going to hold back and obviously can 757 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: equate to even worse things. You kind of agree, Yeah. 758 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 2: He's dost like, so you're not getting value at him 759 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,800 Speaker 2: this year. I'm sorry. It's it's one of those situations 760 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 2: where we're going to push this down the road and 761 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 2: then eventually he's gonna have surgery. They're going to keep 762 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 2: doing this for like a year, and then he's gonna 763 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 2: have surgery. 764 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: That's why he's not a friend of the show. But 765 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 1: you know, friends of the shows have been in the 766 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 1: hospital beds this week. Our boy DJ dj Hers was 767 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 1: in there a couple of days ago. Justin said, I 768 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: think he's having it today or tomorrow. So but Grayson 769 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: not looking good. Mason Winn said to begin a minor 770 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 1: league rehab assignment a triple A today. White Langford was yesterday, 771 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 1: and Pablo Lopez is scheduled to make a rehab start 772 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: on Saturday. So act to Zebbie Matthews, they just don't 773 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 1: want to give us any Zebbie Matthews, let's do. Let's 774 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 1: do a few more questions and then we'll get to 775 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 1: our bets and the home run board to see what 776 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 1: they got. You guys are plowing in the questions today, 777 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 1: Van Rod, Jacob Wilson or Sworez. I guess Johannio Sworrez 778 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:00,359 Speaker 1: so power or con tact. 779 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 2: Probably Wilson. For me, I really like Jacob Wilson. If 780 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 2: you really need a power, I don't mind going with Suarez, 781 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:10,480 Speaker 2: though I think it's kind of team dependent. 782 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,560 Speaker 1: This one kills me. When you ask who are you 783 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 1: most worried about? Then we mentioned half of someone's fantasy staff. Sorry, 784 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 1: I know how that feels. Speaking of staff with the 785 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 1: k upside thoughts on Dolander rest of season. I think 786 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: I've been pretty transparent. I told you guys before he 787 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: was called up. I know he's a Colorado Rockies pitcher, 788 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: but I think his stuff and his talent is there. 789 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:32,879 Speaker 1: I think tonight is going to be a little bit 790 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: of a nice challenge for him, but I think the 791 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 1: k upside is going to be six to seven strikeouts 792 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 1: per night. I think he can maintain lower eras. I 793 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: think he is actually a Colorado Rockies pitcher to hold 794 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 1: on to. But you know, you gotta be careful. 795 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I kind of want to see a little bit 796 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 2: more first, but I don't have any problem with that either. 797 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 1: Well, Junior finish as a top three third baseman this year, 798 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: so Ramirez would be one. Then he would have to 799 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 1: and you got Dever's, Riley Machado at least, and then 800 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 1: and then Jazz also. I think it'd be pretty tough. 801 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 2: It would be pretty hard. Yeah, right now, where does 802 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:11,440 Speaker 2: he come in right now? 803 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 1: Like, you can't have him above Machado and Riley right now, 804 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: so he's already not I don't know if he's going 805 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 1: to those guys and you still have Jazz endeavors who 806 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 1: could pop back up. So I don't think so. 807 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 2: To date, he is the third third basement if you're 808 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 2: looking at the player raiders. But he's ahead of Riley, 809 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,359 Speaker 2: he's ahead of Jazz, he's ahead of Jose Ramirez. Right now, 810 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 2: it doesn't seem likely to sustain. Do you think he'll 811 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:32,240 Speaker 2: be better than Bregmant the rest of season? 812 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,399 Speaker 1: Well, that's a good question. I'm going to still say 813 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: no because I'm pretty I'm pretty big on Bregman right 814 00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 1: now in that ballpark, and it's still early, but maybe 815 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 1: the possibilities are out there. Third base is pretty robust. 816 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: Everybody but Viento's so unfortunately, everybody but Ventto's has been 817 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,320 Speaker 1: like really good, feel bad for that Ian happ or 818 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:51,359 Speaker 1: Tyler O'Neal. 819 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 2: Probably Ian Half. He's just so consistent every year he 820 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 2: never gets the do he's earned. And Tyler O'Neal, we 821 00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 2: know he's going to miss some time at some point, 822 00:36:58,640 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 2: that's true. 823 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 1: How long un till Bubba is up? I would say 824 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 1: the clock ticks next week as a possibility, it might 825 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: be a week after. I think they might. I think 826 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: the pitch count is about where we need to get it. 827 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 1: After this start, and then I think it could be 828 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: any time after that. So I think the clock starts 829 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 1: to tick if you want to stash maybe into this weekend. 830 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,760 Speaker 1: But I mean, I don't fully know WrestleMania or baseball. 831 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 1: This weekend baseball always, yeah, I don't. I don't know 832 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,919 Speaker 1: enough about Joe would have said WrestleMania. We should asked 833 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,799 Speaker 1: him about that, but Mayor would hated that segment. But 834 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 1: I don't know enough about wrestle I don't know anyone 835 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: that's wrestling. I don't know. Is I think John Cena, 836 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 1: is he in it? 837 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,279 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm not Is Joe still around. 838 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: He might still be in my house, he might be 839 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,840 Speaker 1: causing chaos, but he's not in here anymore. So I 840 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 1: don't know. 841 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 2: So I don't. 842 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 1: I don't know anything about it is baseball for us. 843 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 1: It is all baseball. You do your WrestleMania with Joe 844 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,879 Speaker 1: piece of p I think there's a cool betting video 845 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,360 Speaker 1: on Betting Pros as well.

Joe, I think you were one and two, 850 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 1: but you were really good the day before. We were 851 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,719 Speaker 1: two and zero on the bets.

Tani at plus money for bases is 873 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 2: pretty much an auto for me. I don't really get it. 874 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 2: It's up against Jacob de Gram, and I was the 875 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 2: biggest Jacob de Gram fan probably in the world coming 876 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 2: into the season. But I'll be the first to tell 877 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 2: you that he has really not looked great so far. 878 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 2: I think he will turn it around. But getting plus 879 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 2: money on two bags for Otani feels like a safe 880 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 2: bet to make. Josh Naylor He's been absolutely on fire 881 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 2: Welsh and getting him at the same number plus one 882 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 2: and a half or excuse me, plus one oh five 883 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,319 Speaker 2: for one and a half total bases also feels pretty good. 884 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 2: It's not a hard pitching matchup today with Colin Ray 885 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 2: against him on the other side, so I'm gonna lean 886 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,399 Speaker 2: into the hot streak. He's Howard and I believe three 887 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 2: consecutive games and love me a Canadian and Josh Naylor, 888 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:47,959 Speaker 2: so we're gonna take him there and then the last 889 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 2: one Jackson job. I don't really dig the strikeouts. He 890 00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 2: just doesn't really rack up the numbers. It's usually two, three, four, 891 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 2: somewhere in that range. He's going up against Kansas City today. 892 00:39:58,040 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 2: They're a team that doesn't strike out a ton. I 893 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:01,919 Speaker 2: think last season they struck out less than any other team. 894 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 2: This year they're about twenty one percent. And I think, 895 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,439 Speaker 2: you know, Joe may get to three, but I don't 896 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:09,759 Speaker 2: really see him going four or five strikeouts here. I'm 897 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 2: just not really impressed with the strikeout ability so far 898 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:12,640 Speaker 2: this year. 899 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 1: Wow, Okay, that's a that's a bold undertake there, the 900 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 1: undertaker for Wrestlemandia. 901 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 2: I like that me ericson. 902 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm with I'm definitely with that. The Roads 903 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:24,800 Speaker 1: would be a tough team, and Job's strikeouts have been weird, 904 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 1: but I don't know. There's also could be a Max 905 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: Meyer one. But I like those bets in there. You 906 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: know I was going to ask you just real quick, 907 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 1: Jacob de Gram, Jacob de Grom's strikeouts are like five 908 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 1: and a half. They're pretty low this week for a 909 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,839 Speaker 1: normal Jacob de Grom. There's no temptation if you think 910 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: he's going to bounce back. 911 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 2: Against the Dodgers. I didn't look at that line that 912 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 2: what's the number you're getting plus. 913 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 1: Five and a half. I think it's no, it's not 914 00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:47,919 Speaker 1: plus money, but it's like five and a half. Last 915 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 1: time I looked, it was like five and a half 916 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,840 Speaker 1: minus one ten. You know, pretty standard stuff. It's just 917 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 1: the number is low. Like Cole Reagan's is like eight 918 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: strikeouts today, So to go to six on to go 919 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 1: to six on him as as a whole. 920 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 2: Thing, Yeah, I think the Groom's going to bounce back, don't. 921 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 2: I don't mind that number, but against the Dodgers, I 922 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 2: kind of want to see him get right first, Like 923 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 2: I am a little nervous. I heard something that Pollock 924 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,320 Speaker 2: was saying yesterday that he's locating his pitches really well 925 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 2: and he's just kind of getting unlucky. So I'm hoping 926 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,719 Speaker 2: that that turns around today. But it's been rough. It's 927 00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 2: been very rough for mister de Gram. 928 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 1: Now, I hear you. I am going with the strikeout 929 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 1: prop today a big money play. The juice might be 930 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:27,359 Speaker 1: a little bit different right now, but JT. Gin four 931 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 1: and a half strikeouts. He is going up against the 932 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 1: Brewers today, who are a much higher strikeout team. Jtginn 933 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 1: had like a fifteen k per nine in his minor 934 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 1: league starts. He hit this number in his first start, 935 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 1: and that was against a much tougher strikeout team. So 936 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,720 Speaker 1: I really like the potentials of this. Again, is pretty 937 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: sneaky good stuff and you're getting massive plus money. So 938 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 1: plus one thirty Washington first five money line back in 939 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: McKenzie gore against the Rockies, Rockies against left handers, a 940 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 1: little bit of run support as well. In favor of Washington, 941 00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 1: We're going just straight up first five money line. It's 942 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 1: juiced up minus one forty. I don't want to play 943 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 1: the run line on it. And then let's go Friday 944 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,200 Speaker 1: with a little bit of a hits parlay everybody. Let's 945 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:10,480 Speaker 1: have a little bit of fun.

I don't think you 963 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 1: did either. We're all still kind of holding the board. 964 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,200 Speaker 1: Looks pretty similar to this week.

He's got a 981 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 2: essentially a career high barrel rate. It was higher in 982 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,279 Speaker 2: the COVID season, but eleven point four percent this year, 983 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 2: forty seven on the hard hit. Really, it's going up 984 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 2: into Colorado against the young pitcher, and I like his 985 00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,279 Speaker 2: chances to go yard today. A plus eight fifty if 986 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 2: you're interested in the better market. 987 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:03,240 Speaker 1: Oh okay, that's a really I really like those odds. 988 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 1: I'm going with Fernando. It's a little over two and 989 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 1: a half. Bernando Tatis Junior going up against the Astros, 990 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 1: but going up against I want to call this guy 991 00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 1: Rusty because Rusty Gusto would be the greatest name of 992 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:17,840 Speaker 1: all time. But it's not Rusty, it's Ryan Gusto U 993 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,040 Speaker 1: for the UH for the Astros. This is going to 994 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 1: be in Houston. I really like that matchup. So I 995 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 1: am going to go with Fernando Tatis for my home 996 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:28,440 Speaker 1: run call. Let's see we can do one or two more, 997 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:31,400 Speaker 1: then we're going to get out of there. Should I 998 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 1: start res Musin today against Yankees? 999 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 2: I would? I love them.
