I 0:00:51.400 --> 0:00:52.760 just want you to make sure you know I don't 0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:53.920 want you to go too young. 0:00:53.720 --> 0:00:56.400 With some of these players today. I got it. We'll 0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:57.560 be all right. 0:00:57.600 --> 0:01:00.279 You're gonna be tempted to take Connor Griffin, but we're 0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:01.440 not gonna want to take Connor. 0:01:01.720 --> 0:01:04.479 Yeah. I just saw Connor Griffin four times last week. 0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:05.400 He looks awesome, by the way. 0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:07.640 I just talked to Jeff Ponce about it. But you know, Joe, 0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:09.280 I do want to tell you when we do these 0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:10.880 final mock draft, you're supposed to go. 0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:13.479 It's fun mocks draft. 0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:16.720 I did miss that up again, and they're all so 0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:19.679 lucky that you picked it up. Just so so lucky, 0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:22.440 Joe Rico. This is the last one for you as well. 0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:23.120 You're welcome. 0:01:23.160 --> 0:01:25.039 We get the real season going on, so that is 0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:28.120 very exciting. Uh. Do you think Welsh is excited that 0:01:28.480 --> 0:01:30.360 he doesn't have to watch Jordan Montgomery pitch for his 0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:31.800 Arizona Diamondbacks now this year? 0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:35.080 That's a brutal one. Like I don't even know what 0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:36.280 to make of it. I mean, I haven't been a 0:01:36.280 --> 0:01:38.039 big Ryan Nelson fan. Maybe it makes it a little 0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:39.760 bit easier for Ryan Nelson to slip in there at 0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:41.800 some point, But I feel bad for him on a 0:01:41.959 --> 0:01:44.360 kind of a human level, you know, like Lates start 0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:47.160 last year and then he gets dragged by the team 0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:49.600 and the media and then Tommy John It's it's been 0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:52.280 a tough year. So for Jordan Montgomery, I. 0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:54.600 Hear twenty two million dollars when you rub it on 0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:57.240 your arm over the year. It really does help. When 0:01:57.240 --> 0:02:00.440 you can sit there bathing diamonds and rub one hundred 0:02:00.480 --> 0:02:02.560 dollars bills on your arm. Tommy John goes a little 0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:03.680 bit quicker, He'll be he'll. 0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:06.120 Be all right. So we're gonna do one catcher, all 0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:09.600 the infielders. We've got a bunch of outfield spots to today. 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:12.359 How many we got here, we got one, two, three, 0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:17.399 four outfield spots one U till we've got two RP 0:02:17.560 --> 0:02:20.240 spots and seven pitcher spots today we're gonna do. So 0:02:20.320 --> 0:02:23.400 we're gonna kick things off here officially from this draft. 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:26.120 But before we do, if you comment below and subscribe 0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:28.120 to Fantasy Ros MLB because we're trying to get to 0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:30.360 twenty five thousand by opening day and we are so 0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:33.720 close right now, you could win a John Smoltz autograph jersey. 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:35.800 That's right, the John Smoltz thanks to our good friends 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:38.360 at Pristine Auction dot com.

It's 0:03:06.680 --> 0:03:08.760 all about you because we're the show of the people, 0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:11.280 all right. Today we were tempted to kind of all 0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:13.520 draft right next to each other, but that was gonna 0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:14.840 make for a long day at the office for me. 0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:17.320 So Joe Rico, he's such a menshew, and all the 0:03:17.320 --> 0:03:18.920 way to the one one wait to take one for 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:21.240 the team. Joe, Chris Clegg is gonna be over at 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:23.360 one oh six. I'm gonna be at the turn at twelve. 0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:25.520 Welsh in between me and Cleig at one oh nine, 0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:28.359 so we'll see that goes. So it is Shoe Otani 0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:31.760 off the board, number one, Bobby Witt Junior, Aaron Judge, 0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:34.839 Jose Ramirez and then Elie de Lacruz Clegg is on 0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:39.280 the clock, Joe Rico, when do you suspect Shoe Otani 0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:41.160 will be pitching? Give me the date in your mind 0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:42.520 we see show hey on the mound. 0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:49.440 I'd say probably late eight, late May. Late May sound 0:03:49.480 --> 0:03:52.000 about right. Maybe early Sune. But I'm not drafting him 0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:54.480 for pitching stats. I'm taking him for his hitting stats. 0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:57.000 But I think the pitchers like I've seen, just as 0:03:57.040 --> 0:03:58.760 a side note, like there are some leagues where he's 0:03:58.800 --> 0:04:01.400 just O Tani pitcher, only he's going way too high 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:03.680 just because of that name brand value. I don't expect 0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:05.200 a lot from him on the mound this year, but 0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:08.240 I still expect him to do great things at the 0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:09.240 dish like he always does. 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:13.000 All Right, I am up here on the clock at twelve, 0:04:13.080 --> 0:04:15.240 and you know what, I think I'm gonna do something 0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:18.320 fun here. Why not? It's the last one. Let's see 0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:21.279 how it goes. All right, Let's go with the next 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:23.840 pick here, because Juan Soto to Chris Clegg at one 0:04:23.880 --> 0:04:27.040 oh six, Cleig, this is an OBP format we're playing 0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:29.520 in today, So Sodo certainly a guy that you absolutely 0:04:29.520 --> 0:04:33.520 want to be drafting. Here. The OBP off the charts 0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:35.839 for him what kind of pressure you think he's gonna 0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:37.720 put on himself though, because we've seen the guys behind 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:40.080 the monster contracts, sometimes they get off the slow starts 0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:42.360 because of all that pressure. You think that affects Sodo? 0:04:43.480 --> 0:04:43.880 I don't know. 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:46.599 He handled the New York media pretty well last year 0:04:46.640 --> 0:04:49.159 with the Yankees, and yeah, the first year of big contracts, 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:51.000 you know, it is something that I think we have 0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:53.279 to be weary. We've seen guys kind of struggle in 0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:56.000 that first year, but I don't think we see much 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:59.479 struggle from Sodo. He's been as consistent as they come. 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:02.680 His entire career basically feels like a lock to give 0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:05.120 a four hundred plus OBP or better, you know, and 0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:08.600 thirty plus homers sneaking a few steals and yeah, the 0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:12.440 high floor in a head to head roto MAK with OBP. Yeah, 0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:15.840 sign me up, because thing's gonna be highly consistent week 0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:18.200 over week and it can be extremely valuable. 0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:19.760 All right, you're back on the clock. I'll let you 0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:21.880 make your pick. Kyle Tucker at one oh seven, Mookie 0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:23.520 Bets at one o eight. While we're getting a little 0:05:23.600 --> 0:05:26.599 antsy about Mookie Bets, I hope he's okay. He doesn't 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:28.680 look good. I don't like the interview yesterday where he 0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:31.479 can't keep any food down. This is troubling. I hope 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:34.120 just forget fantasy. I hope Mookie Bets is okay. Corbyn 0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:34.840 Carroll went on nine. 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:37.119 It looked like Christian Bale from the Oh my god, 0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:37.799 the problem. 0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:41.080 It's not good. I'm really concerned about him. So shout 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:43.560 out to Mookie. One of the best guys in sports periods. 0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:45.680 So you took Corbyn Carroll at one oh nine. On 0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:47.520 the way back, you took Alvarez at two oh four, 0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:49.760 and that's how you're starting your team. So pretty good 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:51.440 start here for you. How do you feel about these 0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:54.240 two outfielders as you're building from the outside in. 0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:58.760 I feel pretty good, especially because I one hundred percent, totally, 0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:01.480 without question, knew we were doing OBP before we started this. 0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:03.320 And I did not just find out we were. 0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:05.960 Doing and quality starts too three seconds ago. 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.280 Yep, No, I knew all these things, and that's why 0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:11.640 I'm very prepared. Corby Carroll. No matter what great pick 0:06:11.720 --> 0:06:13.520 jan So does, the steal of the draft going at 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:15.479 six and an OBP league just going to point that out. 0:06:15.839 --> 0:06:18.880 But yeah, Corbyn Carroll is a smash here. Very exciting me. 0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:21.320 Mookie Betts went right before him in this, very excited 0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:24.760 to get him. I passed on Julio Rodriguez because this 0:06:24.839 --> 0:06:27.000 is an OBP format for Jordan Alvarez, a little bit 0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:29.760 of risk, huge power. I'm not trying to chase stolen 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:32.039 bases quite as much. And I got Corbyn Carroll, so 0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:35.120 I think this is like an ideal start of Alvarez 0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:38.360 in him. But you know, also pointing out two outfielders 0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:41.760 in a four outfield didn't necessarily need to happen. But 0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:43.240 Carolyn Alvarez, I'm happy and. 0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:45.440 Obi I already immediately want to undo all my picks. 0:06:45.480 --> 0:06:47.320 I just want to say this a draft wizard, you 0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:50.560 could do that. Look, it would be fun, right, I said, 0:06:50.680 --> 0:06:52.920 it's the last time I don't. Mayor wanted to do this. 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:55.400 It didn't work out for him. Gunnar Henderson won at 0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:57.960 one ten Francisco Lindoor at one eleven. I took Paul 0:06:57.960 --> 0:07:00.400 Skins and Terce Google with my two pick. Hit the 0:07:00.400 --> 0:07:02.920 turn just for S's and g's. Let's have some fun. 0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:05.080 Let's see if I can make it work. I already 0:07:05.480 --> 0:07:07.839 skeptical about it. We'll see how it goes. Fernando Tatista 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:10.320 two two, vlad to two three, alvas to Welsh at 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:12.840 two o four, then Julia Rodriguez at two o five, 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.520 Jackson Churio, then Cleig. You took Bryce Harper at two 0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:18.000 oh seven. Let's talk about Harper and your expectations for 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:18.720 him this season. 0:07:19.720 --> 0:07:22.880 That's another kind of high floor player that it's going 0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.760 to give you a major boost and OBP, it was 0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:28.960 an interesting year last year for Harper. The home runs 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.800 were obviously like he's been in consistent year of the 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:32.480 year we've seen him. 0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:33.520 He had thirty last year. 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:35.920 He had twenty one and eighteen the previous years. I'll 0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:38.480 be a smaller sample size, but yeah, I feel like 0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:41.680 he's pretty much another lock for for thirty bombs a year, 0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:44.840 four hundred OVP, you know last year, three seventy three, 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:47.400 but consistently going to take his walks. He's going to 0:07:47.440 --> 0:07:49.560 get on base at a high clip, and he's going 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:51.400 to it for power, not going to be a zero 0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:55.200 and stolen bases. Kind of regretted it because I had 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:58.200 Matt Olson come back around to my next pick, so 0:07:58.240 --> 0:07:59.920 I was like, eeah, like I could have gotten Olson 0:07:59.920 --> 0:08:02.360 in probably been happy could have taken an arm, but 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:05.239 I do like Harper is just another kind of safe 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:08.120 floor with a lot of consistency that that plays pretty well. 0:08:08.160 --> 0:08:10.400 And head ahead and OBP format all. 0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:12.760 Right, Trey Turner two await, Zach Wheeler two nine, Jaron 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:16.120 Durana to ten than at two eleven, Jass Chisholm, then 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:18.440 Joe Rico at the two three turn here in rounds 0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:21.840 two into three, Garrett Crochet and Freddy Freeman Freeman before Crochet. 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:24.680 Just if you're keeping score at home on the YouTube channel, 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:27.360 I love this. I just got Crochet in our Fantasy 0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:30.960 Pro's team league there for our our employee league. Very 0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:32.000 excited about him. 0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:34.200 As did you want to point out also in the 0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:34.920 Fantasy prize. 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:37.440 I got that league just for you, Welsh. I got 0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:39.200 him for two bucks to get into the draft because 0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:41.920 it was only ten team league supply and demand. You 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:44.760 gotta love it, so Crochet, Joe A. Rico, you gotta 0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:46.560 feel pretty good about this. Look at you with your 0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:48.400 Dodger stack. How's that feel right now? 0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:51.439 Yeah, I'm doing a little best ball here mixing though not. 0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:56.040 I think that those two are just so fantastic and 0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:58.079 I don't set out to have players that are on 0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:00.199 the same teams in rodeo or head to have or 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:02.840 any of those things. Not necessarily, but it'll still help out. 0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:04.400 Those guys are going to be banking a lot of 0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:06.280 each other's stats in terms of the runs and RBI. 0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:07.880 One guy hits a home er on the other guy's score, 0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:10.160 So I'll take it. Freddie Freeman for his career. The 0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:13.120 OBP is pushing four hundred. I love those two. I 0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:15.320 don't love the reports that he might have to miss 0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:18.199 some time, but he's looked fantastic in spring. He was 0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:19.520 a little bit hurt at the end of last year, 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:20.880 and we saw it didn't really bother him in the 0:09:20.920 --> 0:09:23.720 postseason at all. And then Garrett Crochet. I've been a 0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:25.400 big fan of his, but also because it's the last 0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:27.439 mock draft, I have to make sure that Chris Welsh 0:09:27.440 --> 0:09:29.160 does not end up with Garrett Crochet and ended up 0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:29.400 with the. 0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:30.000 Other hand in there. 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:31.920 Well you did that, yeah, I know. I looked. I 0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:33.679 was like, where is the oat? We went the first 0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:35.280 pick in the third round, Austin can. 0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:37.240 Tell Marte at three to OHO two, Jackson Meryl at 0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:39.360 three TOZHO three, Austin Riley at three to Ozho four. 0:09:39.520 --> 0:09:42.000 I got both of those guys in that draft as well. 0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:44.480 I was just mentioning it was salary caps. A little 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:48.800 different scenario there, Raphaeld Devers, Kyle Schwarber to Chris Clegg. Now, 0:09:48.800 --> 0:09:51.040 Schwarber a guy, look at you, We're Philly Stack, Harper 0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:54.720 and Schwarber. So Schwarber obviously going to continue to kill 0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:57.960 your batting average. How do you feel about that? Because 0:09:58.120 --> 0:10:00.760 you always want to try to offset those things. But 0:10:00.920 --> 0:10:03.120 I get, Actually, what am I saying? Batting average doesn't matter? 0:10:03.160 --> 0:10:03.880 It's OEP league. 0:10:03.880 --> 0:10:05.439 I was about to say, you're good? 0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:06.520 So how does that make you feel? 0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:06.679 Here? 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:09.559 Kyle Schwarber's let's talk about his value because we're so 0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:11.680 used to those batting average leagues. I got trapped there 0:10:11.720 --> 0:10:16.160 between Schwarber in batting average leagues, Schwarber and OBP leagues. Cleig, 0:10:16.240 --> 0:10:18.040 how much does that change the ADP for you? 0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:22.520 I think it's pretty significant. I mean the OBPS are substantial. 0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:26.160 Year over year points league plays well, OBEP league, he 0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:29.520 plays very very well. You know last year, three sixty 0:10:29.559 --> 0:10:33.079 six OVP despite a forty eight batting average. You absolutely 0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:35.680 take that and the OBP floor. Now on the team 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:39.160 is extremely high with Sodo, Harper and Swarber, so I 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:41.240 can kind of build. However, I want to move them 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:44.199 forward and have a pretty good base there to potentially 0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:47.360 win that category week over week. But yeah, I mean 0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:50.400 Schwarber one hundred and one hundred runs in RBI each 0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:53.520 of the last two years. He's gonna be potentially leading 0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:56.600 off for them again. That would be huge for his value. 0:10:57.080 --> 0:11:00.760 Forty home runs. He's really really good value and obp 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:01.560 in my opinion. 0:11:01.760 --> 0:11:03.679 Matt Olsen at three oh seven, At three zero eight, 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:06.640 Manny Machado, Logan Gilbert to the Welsh, we'll get to 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:08.560 your picks of the second here. Roald Acunia goes at 0:11:08.559 --> 0:11:10.640 three ten, so mad. I was hoping he would make 0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:12.400 it to me because I would absolutely pull the trigger there, 0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:15.240 but instead he goes before me. Corbyn burns. Then I 0:11:15.280 --> 0:11:18.520 took Pete, Alonzo and Corey Seger, just the BPA guys 0:11:18.520 --> 0:11:21.600 on the board. I like Alonzo here playing for basically 0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:25.440 a contract again, and then Corey Seger, you know, always 0:11:25.440 --> 0:11:26.920 holding your breath when it comes to the health of 0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:29.240 Corey Seeger. But the best player on the board, Premium 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:32.320 short stop. Let's go Contreras next, then Jose Al Twovey. 0:11:32.440 --> 0:11:36.080 Let's talk about Chris Sale, Logan, Gilbert Welsh. You've gone 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:38.280 back to back pictures here, so back to back outfield 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:41.800 with Corbyn, Carrol Alvarez and then Gilbert and Sale up next. 0:11:42.080 --> 0:11:44.600 That's a pretty good looking team he got going here, Bubba. 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:47.760 Well, quality starts too, I mean, Logan, Gilbert, give me 0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:51.199 a break. We talked about Derek Carty saying liked him 0:11:51.240 --> 0:11:54.240 to be number one lead the league in wins. I 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:56.839 love the quality star potential. I thought about Chris Sale. 0:11:56.880 --> 0:11:58.600 Chrissel made it back to me. I can get big 0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:00.600 strikeouts when he's out there. He's going to go deep 0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:02.520 into games, So why the hell not. These are two 0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:07.400 really great pitching staff that I've got going here. The 0:12:07.440 --> 0:12:09.880 only problem I'm facing here, Joe, is there are just 0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:13.079 outfielders I like left and right, and I am really 0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:15.160 bad on I'm gonna take another outfielder. I'm gonna go 0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:17.040 with James Wood because I'm on the clock. I had 0:12:17.080 --> 0:12:19.520 a three point fifty so far career minor league OBP 0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:23.520 stolen bases. It's hard to pass on him. There's too 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:26.040 many good outfields and regretting just like a tad bit 0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:28.599 of taking Alvarez because I had thought about Harper. I 0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:30.599 feel like Harper instead of Alvarez would look kind of 0:12:30.600 --> 0:12:32.600 good on this team based on where some of these 0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:34.360 outfielders are out there that I kind of want to 0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:34.959 take right now. 0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:37.600 Yeah, I really wanted him to get to me. He 0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:41.520 did not, So you're officially your big your big, huge jerk. Well, 0:12:41.679 --> 0:12:42.520 I just want you to know. 0:12:42.559 --> 0:12:45.559 I got two words for you, Joe, Yeah, sorry. 0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:47.319 Yeah, okay, all right, let's move on here to the 0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:50.520 next couple of picks here. I've made mine. Continuing on, 0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:54.240 after you took Chris sale O'Neal Cruz at four five, 0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:59.080 Brent Rooker at four o six, then Cole Reagan's to 0:12:59.440 --> 0:13:02.040 Chris Klay, so Reagan's your ace. Gotta feel pretty good 0:13:02.040 --> 0:13:04.280 about that. I am somebody who typically does wait till 0:13:04.280 --> 0:13:07.920 the fourth round to pull triggers on pitchers, but I 0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:10.480 just couldn't pass up having some fun here on this 0:13:10.559 --> 0:13:13.240 last draft. So for you, you w and Cole Reagan's 0:13:13.240 --> 0:13:14.800 a four oh seven, and then in the next round 0:13:14.840 --> 0:13:17.680 you took Ran for Valdez Chris, So that feels like 0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:19.760 a pretty good front of this rotation. You feel like 0:13:19.800 --> 0:13:22.680 Reagans and Valdez is enough there to compete with my 0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:25.199 Tarik Schooble and Paul Skins. Are you ready for it? 0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:25.800 Yeah? 0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:27.800 I don't know about that, but you know, I do 0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:30.520 think that this is a solid top two. Valdez gives 0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:33.160 you a pretty high floor and Reagan's has the upside. 0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:35.240 You know, I think that Reagan's has now shown that 0:13:35.280 --> 0:13:37.719 he can handle the workload to give you a good 0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:40.680 amount of innings year every year and strike out totals 0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:44.000 ratios are there. And with Franbur it's just the high floor. 0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:47.000 You know what you're getting from him, good ratios. So yeah, 0:13:47.040 --> 0:13:49.439 it may not be Skins and scooball, but pretty good 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:52.760 top two. I'm happy with considering the the bats that started. 0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:55.360 With nothing is my friend, Nothing is Manuel. Class A 0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:57.720 goes next to four to eight, then Whitet, Langford, Dylan Cees, 0:13:57.760 --> 0:14:00.840 Blake Snail back to Joel Rico, Ozzie Albi's and Devin Williams. 0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:04.199 So instead of taking another uh, I'm just curious here 0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:06.600 in staid to take another starting pitcher. You've gone closer. 0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:09.840 I know Class A went off the board there. Uh, 0:14:09.960 --> 0:14:12.800 you missed one. Your chance to take Jacob de Gram Joe. 0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:15.280 So, I'm a big de Grom guy, of course, but 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:16.560 I am not a liar. 0:14:17.840 --> 0:14:19.960 A liar, that's that's what you are. 0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:23.800 I'll post my player shares the day before opening. You're 0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:25.200 gonna see how much of a liar I am on 0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:29.560 Jacob a Gram. But quality starts make the difference. I 0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:31.040 think that de Gram is going to be limited to 0:14:31.160 --> 0:14:33.680 five innings a lot of the time, which in regular 0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:35.440 roto I think at five innings with de Grom could 0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:38.760 still be nine strikeouts, shut out ball. But we're looking 0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:40.440 at quality starts, and I think that's where he might 0:14:40.440 --> 0:14:43.080 fall behind a little bit. So I opted to go 0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:45.680 with a lockdown closer I usually take at least one 0:14:45.720 --> 0:14:48.320 of those top five or seven names, and then also 0:14:48.400 --> 0:14:50.200 took care of a kind of a scarce position with 0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:53.440 second base in Assie Albi's. His on base percentage isn't fantastic, 0:14:53.760 --> 0:14:55.440 but I'm kind of buying into a bounce back year 0:14:55.480 --> 0:14:56.760 for him, and I'm hoping he can kind of get 0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:59.120 back to what he's done in each of the last 0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:02.120 two ODDS season since twenty twenty three and twenty twenty one, 0:15:02.120 --> 0:15:04.280 when he played the whole year. He was fantastic, and 0:15:04.320 --> 0:15:07.040 I think the OBP can kind of work itself out. 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:09.960 Yeah, great analysis there too. The head to head de 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:12.320 Grom should take a hit. You're absolutely right, Michael Harris 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:14.440 at five oh two, c J. Abrams at five oh three. 0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:16.200 De Grom did go at five oh four, then ti 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:19.120 Oscar Hernandez Frambert of Clegg as we mentioned before, Alex 0:15:19.120 --> 0:15:21.760 Bregman at five oh seven, Marcelo Zun at five oh eight. 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:24.880 I was hoping for him or James Wood instead Welsh 0:15:24.880 --> 0:15:26.720 snipe me on both of them, then, ya, I'm a motive. 0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:29.960 At five ten, Junior Kemenaro is also hoping for my cue, 0:15:30.000 --> 0:15:30.920 got obliterated. 0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:33.240 So I pivoted to Lawrence Butler. We're just you got 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:35.280 me back. I wanted Butler coming back around. 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:35.880 That was the guy. 0:15:35.920 --> 0:15:36.560 So you got me back? 0:15:36.600 --> 0:15:38.600 Serves you right, serves you right, Like I need. I 0:15:38.640 --> 0:15:40.240 need all the offense I can get. This is the 0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:42.320 interesting thing. It's like, all right, you take those two 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:45.240 pictures of the turn, what does it look like offensively? 0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:48.320 So Alonso Seger Butler and then Marcus Simeon. So I've 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:50.880 gone full Texas Rangers here. All the American League West 0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:53.240 I can handle Edwin Diaz at six oh two, then 0:15:53.280 --> 0:15:55.640 Hater at six oh three. Welsh, you got your closer 0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:58.000 at six oh four again to our peace spots. Pretty 0:15:58.000 --> 0:15:59.480 great value here on Mason Miller. 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:01.360 I think it was a pretty good vite. I didn't 0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:04.000 love what was around. That's kind of what happened because 0:16:04.000 --> 0:16:05.240 I was going to take Butler, and that's kind of 0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:06.720 what I was alluding to, and I was like, I'm 0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:08.840 gonna fill out my outfield. That's just what I'm going 0:16:08.880 --> 0:16:11.200 to do. But I think it ended up being a 0:16:11.400 --> 0:16:13.800 pretty pretty good value. And I think there's a lot 0:16:13.840 --> 0:16:15.680 of value on the board right now as well that 0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:16.400 I am battling. 0:16:16.800 --> 0:16:19.680 Yeah, I would agree, definitely a fair amount of value 0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:24.200 continuing on here after Mason Miller, Tyler Glass. Now Williadamas Clegg, 0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:26.840 you went in the closer mark with Ryan Helsley. So 0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:29.480 did you have any pressure after Welsh took Miller to 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:31.080 keep grabbing closers. 0:16:31.760 --> 0:16:34.040 A little bit and just didn't love the other values 0:16:34.200 --> 0:16:36.880 on the board. It was outfield in first base, which 0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:38.520 I already have, and so like kind of the Welsh 0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:42.080 conundrum of the outfield situation of taking the two outfielders 0:16:42.080 --> 0:16:44.120 in the first three rounds kind of was in a 0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:47.800 weird spot. Yeah, I didn't love what was there. I was, okay, well, 0:16:47.800 --> 0:16:50.800 I'll just I'll take my closer and be happy with it. 0:16:51.120 --> 0:16:53.240 That's right, You'll take it and you'll be happy with it. 0:16:53.480 --> 0:16:53.880 You don't be. 0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:54.920 Happy with it, sir. 0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:58.400 I am furious at Team five right now. Taking Louise 0:16:58.480 --> 0:17:00.640 Robert I was another one I thought sure I would 0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:03.720 get back there. Michael King, Brenton Doyle, Pablo Lopez, then 0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:06.080 Joe Rico. Two more starters for you, Logan Web and 0:17:06.119 --> 0:17:08.480 showed to Emanaga. That's a pretty good look for you, 0:17:08.520 --> 0:17:09.000 my friend. 0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:12.320 Yeah, I did pass up to gram earlier, but like 0:17:12.600 --> 0:17:16.240 looking at Web with the innings projections, he's gonna go 0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:18.760 six or seven innings pretty much every single time out there, 0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:21.080 one hundred and ninety plus innings very much at play, 0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:23.680 and I think the projections are very high on Logan 0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:26.680 Web specifically ATC loves him. That's what I put into 0:17:26.720 --> 0:17:30.400 my obp auction calculator for this draft. And he's coming 0:17:30.400 --> 0:17:32.960 in as like the SP thirteen overall. So I'm gonna 0:17:33.000 --> 0:17:35.160 rely on aerials projections there and hope that I got 0:17:35.160 --> 0:17:36.600 a bargain in Logan Web. 0:17:37.200 --> 0:17:41.000 Okay bargain potentially in logan Web. After Emanaga goes at 0:17:41.040 --> 0:17:44.560 seven oh two, jan Here Diaz and Adlie Rutchman, Aaronola, 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:48.040 Josh Naylor, Kyle Rawley to Clegg's on the clock, so 0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:50.480 I'll let him pick his next pick. In eighth round, 0:17:50.720 --> 0:17:53.720 George Kirby at seven oh seven, still worried about his health. 0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:56.879 Matt McClain. Then Christian Walker to the Welsh. Look at that, 0:17:57.000 --> 0:17:58.960 your old friend, Christian Walker. 0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:02.320 My buddy, Well. I had a plan and the next 0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:05.080 pick is much more exciting. And also the OBP format 0:18:05.119 --> 0:18:07.320 this guy thrives in. He just you know, doesn't play 0:18:07.400 --> 0:18:09.800 enough games for everyone to get super excited. But give 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:13.520 me OBP. I decided Anthony Santander was on the board 0:18:13.520 --> 0:18:15.840 and was top boost would have been my fourth outfielder. 0:18:16.080 --> 0:18:18.040 I want to get some infield. Josh Naylor had gone. 0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:20.680 Christian Walker is gonna make opening Day. I like him 0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:22.720 more than Josh Naylor this year, so I think he's 0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:24.919 a value. But he had dropped, and then Joey I 0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:27.320 came back around on the next round. We're having fun 0:18:27.320 --> 0:18:28.919 with our last draft. I want to make sure I 0:18:28.920 --> 0:18:31.119 get him. I took Mike Trout. Mike Trott was my 0:18:31.160 --> 0:18:34.399 fourth outfielder. It's an OBP format where he's gonna come 0:18:34.440 --> 0:18:36.840 up even a little bit more. I've mitigated the risk. 0:18:36.840 --> 0:18:38.440 I don't have a ton of infield, but I had 0:18:38.480 --> 0:18:40.600 to have him and no chance he was coming back 0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:42.640 to me because he had been pushing into the nineties. 0:18:42.680 --> 0:18:44.800 So I locked up my Mike Trout. 0:18:45.240 --> 0:18:47.679 You sure did what could go wrong? Ryce so Iglesias 0:18:47.720 --> 0:18:49.600 at seven to ten, Bellinger at seven to eleven. I 0:18:49.600 --> 0:18:53.000 took Munos and then Santander. As aforementioned, I almost went 0:18:53.040 --> 0:18:56.400 Batista and Munio's. I was just gonna completely just non 0:18:56.520 --> 0:18:59.560 Joe this draft, just because I could. It's the last one. 0:18:59.680 --> 0:19:00.920 Just as se what it would look like. 0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:02.880 Just to get yourself to hate your own draft. 0:19:03.080 --> 0:19:05.439 Well, I mean, look, as long as I beat you, 0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:10.680 that's all that matters. Felix Bautista, Westburg, Mike Trout, sal Perez, Wilson, Gutraz. 0:19:10.760 --> 0:19:13.960 Thank Cleig. You took my boy, Mark Viento's. Look, I 0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:17.159 think Vento's is a thirty ninety ninety guy as a 0:19:17.200 --> 0:19:21.400 floor this year. You think I'm overestimating that in that lineup? Oh? 0:19:21.440 --> 0:19:22.520 I mean, that's certainly fair. 0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:24.720 He gave you twenty seven homers last year and four 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:27.920 nund and fifty four plate appearances, so hard to imagine 0:19:27.960 --> 0:19:30.439 I'm not getting thirty this year. As long as he 0:19:30.440 --> 0:19:32.919 stays healthy all year, it's you know, he's not a 0:19:33.000 --> 0:19:35.680 huge boost in VP or anything of that nature, doesn't 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.200 walk a ton, but you know, like I said, I've 0:19:38.200 --> 0:19:40.640 got a pretty good OVP floor, so it helps out 0:19:40.720 --> 0:19:42.800 and I really do believe in that power. 0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:44.560 For sure. Lineup's going to be good. 0:19:44.880 --> 0:19:47.800 Yeah. I like vent Too's value a lot there, Especially 0:19:47.880 --> 0:19:51.280 third base feels shallow, so you know, getting Vento's before 0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:53.240 kind of a do a fall off later. 0:19:53.320 --> 0:19:54.240 I'm happy with. 0:19:54.560 --> 0:19:57.560 Okay, so happy with Vento's. Luis Gestio ao A. Brian 0:19:57.560 --> 0:19:59.600 Reynolds at eight on nine, Say as Uzuki at eight ten, 0:20:00.080 --> 0:20:02.920 Rice Miller at eight eleven, Joe Rico, you took ian 0:20:03.000 --> 0:20:05.040 happen Spencer Strider. I was gonna pull the trigger on 0:20:05.040 --> 0:20:07.760 Strider and be a real jerk here me too, all right, 0:20:07.800 --> 0:20:09.960 so we know wouldn't have happened there. So let's talk 0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:14.600 about Strider. What are your concerns with his restrictions potentially 0:20:14.680 --> 0:20:15.960 this year? If Eddie, Well, I. 0:20:15.920 --> 0:20:17.720 Guess I took him in the right spot, considering you 0:20:17.720 --> 0:20:20.199 guys are going to take him there, I think that 0:20:20.240 --> 0:20:22.399 he's we could probably just count him out for April, 0:20:22.520 --> 0:20:25.760 if you want to just take like six starts or 0:20:25.800 --> 0:20:28.200 so off of his total and say he's probably gonna 0:20:28.240 --> 0:20:31.679 pitch twenty two to twenty five times this year. I 0:20:31.680 --> 0:20:33.920 think that's about what we should expect. Now, with pitch 0:20:33.920 --> 0:20:35.399 your injuries, you always got to be a little bit 0:20:35.400 --> 0:20:37.120 more wary, so maybe you can take even a couple 0:20:37.240 --> 0:20:38.679 more starts off of that. But I think at this 0:20:38.920 --> 0:20:41.399 range the per ding production I'm going to get out 0:20:41.400 --> 0:20:43.399 of him as my SP four, and even if he 0:20:43.440 --> 0:20:44.919 does have to miss a little bit more time than 0:20:44.960 --> 0:20:47.080 expect it, I think that the replacement level value is 0:20:47.119 --> 0:20:49.159 so high, even in a twelve team league, that I 0:20:49.160 --> 0:20:50.080 can kind of make up for that. 0:20:50.280 --> 0:20:51.879 Let's take a quick break in the action to tell 0:20:51.880 --> 0:20:54.479 you about fan Tracks, the home of fantasy sports.

The Braves are on Strider at nine 0:21:55.080 --> 0:21:57.280 oh one, Max Freed x Brave at nine oh two. 0:21:57.359 --> 0:22:00.920 Then Spencer Schwelenbach, Oh, Welsh's just just miserable. 0:22:01.640 --> 0:22:05.159 It hurt. I knew when I took trout I was 0:22:05.200 --> 0:22:08.640 costing myself at least one of Striider Schwellenbach. I didn't 0:22:08.640 --> 0:22:10.639 know I was costing myself both, but I knew I 0:22:10.720 --> 0:22:11.320 was in for it. 0:22:11.560 --> 0:22:14.440 I wanted one of these pictures this round. Strider didn't 0:22:14.440 --> 0:22:16.560 get him, Hunter Green didn't get him, Chris Cleig took 0:22:16.600 --> 0:22:18.600 ten or Byby didn't get him. Then Bailey over, Freddy 0:22:18.640 --> 0:22:21.960 Peralter and Hunter Brown all went. So Cleg, let's talk 0:22:21.960 --> 0:22:24.639 about your tenor Byby selection another player I literally just 0:22:24.720 --> 0:22:28.640 drafted before I came here in our work league. So 0:22:28.800 --> 0:22:30.679 I mean, you gotta love that extension. That means that 0:22:30.720 --> 0:22:33.080 the Cleveland Guardians feel pretty good about him. 0:22:34.400 --> 0:22:37.080 Yeah, definitely. I mean I think they're confident in him. 0:22:37.119 --> 0:22:40.120 He's been pretty good year over year in his two 0:22:40.200 --> 0:22:43.160 years since debuting. You know what you're getting out of him? 0:22:43.400 --> 0:22:47.040 Good ratios, solid strikeout numbers, low walk numbers, so good 0:22:47.119 --> 0:22:51.600 k mis BB, good ratios consistently. I think people kind 0:22:51.600 --> 0:22:54.760 of under rate Byby. He just not the flashiest arm, 0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:57.000 but I think he's very solid. You gave you one 0:22:57.080 --> 0:22:59.320 seventy three innings last year. I don't see why he 0:22:59.320 --> 0:23:02.120 shouldn't give you more this year. So head ahead, league, 0:23:02.119 --> 0:23:04.199 I think you can expect him to get six innings 0:23:04.240 --> 0:23:07.280 pretty regularly, which is good for quality starts. And yeah, 0:23:07.359 --> 0:23:10.280 kind of a boring pitching staff so far outside of Reagan's, 0:23:10.320 --> 0:23:12.760 but I think there's some good value in. 0:23:12.720 --> 0:23:16.040 Between all those pitchers. Welsh, you select interesting concess will 0:23:16.080 --> 0:23:18.440 come back to you in just a moment. Hunter Brown goes, 0:23:18.480 --> 0:23:21.119 Bobashek goes. Then I took Riley Green and Matt Chapman. 0:23:21.119 --> 0:23:23.240 I'll continue to trying to build out that offense. I 0:23:23.280 --> 0:23:25.159 gotta take some pitching soon though, because it's flying off 0:23:25.200 --> 0:23:27.439 the board. Christian Yellwich at TENNHO two, Bryce Terraang at 0:23:27.440 --> 0:23:30.480 TENO three. Welsh, you took my dude, Sandy Alcontra. Good 0:23:30.520 --> 0:23:32.720 on you, my friend. You feel the compression in that 0:23:32.760 --> 0:23:35.080 pitching market, right. You had a couple more injuries, you know, 0:23:35.200 --> 0:23:37.199 Shane McClanahan off the board, next thing, you know, all 0:23:37.200 --> 0:23:40.320 of a sudden an a'l contra adp really kind of soaring. 0:23:40.520 --> 0:23:43.920 Also a couple of days quality starts, Like I'm well, 0:23:43.920 --> 0:23:45.640 it's one of the things we're holding back on him 0:23:45.680 --> 0:23:48.440 with the Marlins wins. Well, guess what quality starts he's 0:23:48.440 --> 0:23:51.359 built to go seven I obviously they could pare that 0:23:51.400 --> 0:23:53.600 down a little bit, but I love getting him in 0:23:53.600 --> 0:23:55.679 the quality start market. And yeah, I did feel the 0:23:55.960 --> 0:23:57.720 that's a good way you put it, like the compression 0:23:57.720 --> 0:24:00.320 of the pitching market, because there was this big bevy 0:24:00.359 --> 0:24:02.240 of dudes that I kind of lost out on. Usually 0:24:02.280 --> 0:24:05.240 Schwellenbach is like a number three for me, but I 0:24:05.560 --> 0:24:07.600 like getting Sandy there, especially in this format. 0:24:07.760 --> 0:24:10.000 Well, a bevy of dudes. Isn't that the club used 0:24:10.040 --> 0:24:11.240 to work out when you were in college? 0:24:11.800 --> 0:24:14.960 M hm, yes, one hundred percent. I think you can dance. 0:24:15.760 --> 0:24:16.640 Yeah it was a bounce. 0:24:16.680 --> 0:24:18.399 Oh you were a dancer. You were a dancer. But 0:24:18.520 --> 0:24:21.840 I've seen your moves. It's very good. Sandy Alcondra goes 0:24:21.840 --> 0:24:24.040 at ten oh four, then ten o five, Roki Sazaki, 0:24:24.160 --> 0:24:27.760 Vinie Pascuentino, Clegg Zach Gallon. This pitching staff is starting 0:24:27.760 --> 0:24:30.800 to look pretty good here, Reagan's Valdez and then you've 0:24:30.800 --> 0:24:33.760 got Byby Gallon and Justin Steele on the way back 0:24:33.800 --> 0:24:36.159 in the eleventh. This is not a boring pitching staff, 0:24:36.200 --> 0:24:38.119 my friend, I think this looks pretty damn deep to me. 0:24:38.760 --> 0:24:41.400 Yeah, it worked out pretty good, just how it shook out, 0:24:41.600 --> 0:24:44.160 you know, I think that there is it just shows 0:24:44.160 --> 0:24:46.400 that you can wait. Especially in a twelve team league, 0:24:46.440 --> 0:24:48.080 you get bats early, and you can get some pretty 0:24:48.080 --> 0:24:50.880 good arms with some good value, and even a head 0:24:50.880 --> 0:24:53.520 to head league where pitching is very valuable. Like, I 0:24:53.560 --> 0:24:55.439 feel pretty good with the top five that I have 0:24:55.720 --> 0:24:58.919 so far. So yeah, I'm certainly happy with how the 0:24:58.920 --> 0:25:01.920 staff's shaken out. You know, Gallon last year he had 0:25:02.080 --> 0:25:03.879 a bit of a down year, but also he had 0:25:03.880 --> 0:25:05.680 a bid of the World Series hangover, Like he threw 0:25:05.720 --> 0:25:07.760 two hundred and fifty innings in twenty twenty three, Like 0:25:08.160 --> 0:25:10.520 what did we expect? So I think that Gallon's back 0:25:10.560 --> 0:25:13.960 this year to his old self and provides plenty of value. 0:25:14.160 --> 0:25:16.560 I agree, my friend, I'm all in a great value 0:25:16.560 --> 0:25:17.840 this year. In fact, I think he can be a 0:25:17.880 --> 0:25:20.359 league winner this year because of that value. If he 0:25:20.480 --> 0:25:22.359 performs like a one or two and you're drafting him 0:25:22.359 --> 0:25:25.200 as a four, I mean, come on, Doran goes next, 0:25:25.240 --> 0:25:28.240 then ten oh nine, Jake Berger, Joe Ryan, Dylan Cruz, 0:25:28.520 --> 0:25:31.560 Randy Rose Rain, it's Joe Rico who then takes Esach 0:25:31.600 --> 0:25:35.040 Paradis in eleven oh one. Will Smith will get to you, Joe. 0:25:35.080 --> 0:25:37.520 I know you're making your picks there. Jack Flaherty, Sunny Gray, 0:25:37.680 --> 0:25:42.479 questions about him, Grayson Rodriguez, Justin Steele, Ryan Walker, than 0:25:42.520 --> 0:25:46.000 Spencer Steeer, the Welsh ten or Scott, So look at you. 0:25:46.080 --> 0:25:49.760 Continuing on that closer run Ezekiel Tovar, Seae McClanahan, and 0:25:49.800 --> 0:25:53.440 then I took Brian Wu and Carlos Rodan, building out 0:25:53.440 --> 0:25:56.120 my rotation. Stephen Kwan goes next at twelve oh two, 0:25:56.160 --> 0:25:59.080 code I Senga Xavier Edwards. So Welsh, let's talk about 0:25:59.080 --> 0:26:01.159 Scott and Edwards and then we'll get to Joe Rico's 0:26:01.200 --> 0:26:02.000 picks here in a moment. 0:26:02.560 --> 0:26:02.720 Yeah. 0:26:02.760 --> 0:26:04.640 Well, one thing I want to throw out is I'm 0:26:04.680 --> 0:26:06.840 really feeling the pressure. I've never I can't believe this 0:26:06.960 --> 0:26:08.720 last draft of the season, I haven't had this. Maybe 0:26:08.760 --> 0:26:12.240 it's OBP. I can't believe how much I'm regretting going 0:26:12.320 --> 0:26:14.879 high outfield in this. I've never had that happen before, 0:26:15.240 --> 0:26:17.680 because there are guys, dude, there are guys left and right. 0:26:18.240 --> 0:26:22.880 Stephen Kwan, Stephen Kwan absolutely fell in this in this format. 0:26:23.000 --> 0:26:24.359 I would have loved to have taken him, but I 0:26:24.400 --> 0:26:26.560 have all four. So I'm really kind of feeling the 0:26:26.600 --> 0:26:29.240 pressure of that. Back to my picks. Though I wanted 0:26:29.240 --> 0:26:31.600 onto this, Munios didn't get him. Tanner Scott is my 0:26:31.680 --> 0:26:34.040 number two with the Dodgers. I'm absolutely in love with that. 0:26:34.680 --> 0:26:36.919 And who the hell is my other pick? 0:26:37.000 --> 0:26:38.359 Who the hell is my other pick? 0:26:38.800 --> 0:26:38.960 Oh? 0:26:39.000 --> 0:26:42.399 Exavier Edwards? So you took wu. That was what I wanted. 0:26:42.520 --> 0:26:45.600 I'd been looking at Edwards because he's a huge obp boost. 0:26:45.880 --> 0:26:47.919 He's a great stolen base chase. He's kind of a 0:26:47.960 --> 0:26:51.159 nothing burger as far as power goes. But I've already 0:26:51.160 --> 0:26:54.120 taken Walker and Cossas and Alvarez and Wood and Trout. 0:26:54.320 --> 0:26:56.239 I can, I can afford to do this, and I'm 0:26:56.320 --> 0:26:58.560 just gonna throw this out there. There's an outfielder too. 0:26:58.600 --> 0:27:01.000 I really like to chase stolen bases. They're kind of 0:27:01.000 --> 0:27:02.600 off the table for me because I did this with 0:27:02.640 --> 0:27:05.399 outfield so Edwards became more important to the bill to 0:27:05.400 --> 0:27:08.640 get some stolen bases. So I'm happy with where we're at. 0:27:08.640 --> 0:27:10.760 But I'm feeling the pressure. I just it's so weird. 0:27:10.800 --> 0:27:13.159 I haven't had this in quite some time where a 0:27:13.320 --> 0:27:15.480 position has locked me out of my strategy. 0:27:15.640 --> 0:27:19.119 Yeah, okay, you're feeling triggered. Do you want your blankie? 0:27:19.600 --> 0:27:19.719 Well? 0:27:19.880 --> 0:27:21.399 You want want, I want, I want, I want a 0:27:21.440 --> 0:27:25.320 severance I need from my my fantasy drafting life versus 0:27:25.359 --> 0:27:25.920 this life. 0:27:25.920 --> 0:27:28.320 I need to go make your pick. You got eight seconds, 0:27:28.400 --> 0:27:30.840 all right, Joe Urico. Last couple of picks A Rosa, 0:27:30.880 --> 0:27:33.560 Raina Paritis, two great values there, especially if Rosa Raina 0:27:33.560 --> 0:27:36.000 bounce is back, then Christopher Sanchez a Welsh favorite, and 0:27:36.119 --> 0:27:38.560 Dansby Swanson. So how do you feel about these last 0:27:38.600 --> 0:27:39.840 few picks? Break them down for me. 0:27:39.920 --> 0:27:41.920 I feel really good, like they're all guys that get 0:27:41.960 --> 0:27:45.000 boosts in on base percentage formats a Rose Raina. I 0:27:45.000 --> 0:27:47.560 think even if this was just a standard batting average league, 0:27:47.560 --> 0:27:49.639 I got him around. We'll pick one twenty. I think 0:27:49.680 --> 0:27:51.199 that's about where he should be going. But the on 0:27:51.280 --> 0:27:53.680 base percentage really negates that kind of negative that he 0:27:53.720 --> 0:27:55.879 would give you. The negates the negative, a little bit 0:27:55.880 --> 0:27:57.760 of a double negative there. And then he's talked for 0:27:57.800 --> 0:27:59.440 a little a little bit, quite a lot of it. 0:28:00.160 --> 0:28:02.960 And then Esauk Prades is another guy who's walking a 0:28:03.000 --> 0:28:05.040 ton in spring training. He's been walking a lot, twenty 0:28:05.080 --> 0:28:07.280 percent walk right through fifteen spring games. He hit a 0:28:07.280 --> 0:28:09.439 home run yesterday that he's gonna be doing a lot 0:28:09.480 --> 0:28:11.399 of this year, pulling it into the Crawford boxes. So 0:28:11.840 --> 0:28:14.080 I like those two picks a lot. And then Christopher Sanchez, 0:28:14.320 --> 0:28:16.159 I think that this is a really good place for 0:28:16.240 --> 0:28:17.560 him to go. He probably should be going even a 0:28:17.560 --> 0:28:19.520 little bit earlier. At the end of the twelve round 0:28:19.560 --> 0:28:21.840 and Dansby, I needed to shortstop another guy who's going 0:28:21.880 --> 0:28:23.560 to give me a good on base percentage. So I 0:28:23.600 --> 0:28:25.360 think I've leaned maybe a little bit too heavily into 0:28:25.359 --> 0:28:26.920 the OBP and I need to start filling out some 0:28:26.960 --> 0:28:28.679 of the other categories. But I have a really strong 0:28:28.720 --> 0:28:29.240 base there. 0:28:29.880 --> 0:28:32.360 So danz Bey Swanson at thirteen oh one, Jared Jones 0:28:33.000 --> 0:28:36.160 who knows if and when? Jeff Hoffman at thirteen oh three, 0:28:36.200 --> 0:28:38.719 Brandon Nimo at thirteen oh four, Logan o Hoppy at 0:28:38.720 --> 0:28:41.320 thirteen oh five, Chris Cleig, you took Xander Bogarts. You 0:28:41.320 --> 0:28:43.520 are on the clock for your next pick. Nick Pavetta 0:28:43.520 --> 0:28:46.280 at thirteen oh seven. Then we had Pete crowl Armstrong. 0:28:46.320 --> 0:28:48.440 Go Gavin Williams. You took him from me wlsh I 0:28:48.440 --> 0:28:51.680 had him in the queue. You snipe me, you dirty bastard. 0:28:52.160 --> 0:28:54.560 Great pick there. I love this. How many things does 0:28:54.640 --> 0:28:56.440 Gavin Williams give you this year you think. 0:28:57.600 --> 0:28:59.840 I think, I mean, I guess I was about to 0:28:59.840 --> 0:29:01.440 say barring injury, that's what you were asking. 0:29:01.480 --> 0:29:01.720 I don't know. 0:29:01.720 --> 0:29:03.600 I think like one hundred and sixty, Like one hundred 0:29:03.640 --> 0:29:05.960 and sixty would be like the fair marker. Does that 0:29:06.040 --> 0:29:07.400 sound clik? What does that sound about? 0:29:07.440 --> 0:29:07.560 Right? 0:29:07.560 --> 0:29:08.240 With Gavi Williams? 0:29:08.280 --> 0:29:10.000 You think, yeah, one hundred percent I agree with that. 0:29:10.080 --> 0:29:12.320 Yeah, all right. I'd always Garcia at thirteen ten, Real 0:29:12.400 --> 0:29:15.000 Muto at thirteen eleven. I took Profar and Ryan Pepio 0:29:15.400 --> 0:29:19.200 at the turn fourteen oh two. Chris, excuse me, Nick Cassianos, 0:29:19.200 --> 0:29:21.960 than Josh low Uhenio Suarez to the Welsh and other 0:29:22.000 --> 0:29:25.000 diamondback So what swarre is are you getting this year? Welsh? 0:29:25.040 --> 0:29:26.880 You getting the one from the first half or the 0:29:26.920 --> 0:29:27.480 second half? 0:29:27.960 --> 0:29:29.680 I mean, I'm banking on the second. If I get 0:29:29.680 --> 0:29:31.600 the second half one, that's a huge value that I 0:29:31.720 --> 0:29:33.640 just got. If I get the first half one, then 0:29:33.640 --> 0:29:35.880 I'm going to be looking for replacements. But you know, 0:29:35.920 --> 0:29:38.000 this is a weird This is a weird constructed draft 0:29:38.040 --> 0:29:40.920 that I did because I went heavy outfield with heavy pitching, 0:29:41.240 --> 0:29:43.200 so I'm kind of playing from behind a little bit 0:29:43.240 --> 0:29:46.640 on the infield, so I'm looking for value. Swarez better 0:29:46.760 --> 0:29:50.880 probably OBP play big power potential. I was really behind 0:29:51.200 --> 0:29:54.480 looking on on the draft Wizard. I've been behind on 0:29:54.600 --> 0:29:56.920 RBI runs and homers. I'm doing pretty well in some 0:29:56.960 --> 0:29:59.000 other spots, but I've got to play catch up. So 0:29:59.040 --> 0:30:02.000 Swarez was just a big bat that's gonna hopefully push 0:30:02.040 --> 0:30:03.240 me a little bit more in line with that. 0:30:03.440 --> 0:30:05.880 All right, Well, see if it's true or not. So 0:30:06.080 --> 0:30:10.960 after Suarez, Trevor McGill, then you've got Seth Lugo, Chris Klegg. 0:30:11.000 --> 0:30:12.360 Every time I come to you, you're on the clock, 0:30:12.440 --> 0:30:15.040 so do the best you can here. Bogarts Taylor Ward 0:30:15.040 --> 0:30:17.040 the last two picks for you, So you're filling out 0:30:17.040 --> 0:30:20.320 that offense. Colton Kowser before that, what are your thoughts 0:30:20.360 --> 0:30:22.720 on Kowser, Bogarts and Taylor Ward. 0:30:23.600 --> 0:30:26.080 Yeah, I thought Cowser fell pretty far. 0:30:26.520 --> 0:30:30.040 I like the value there provides go ovp some power speed. 0:30:30.240 --> 0:30:33.560 Bogarts is boring, but second base gets boring too, so 0:30:33.600 --> 0:30:38.040 it's like I needed somebody there. And yeah, the next 0:30:38.040 --> 0:30:41.040 pick Taylor Ward another one where like he just continually 0:30:41.120 --> 0:30:45.000 undervalued year every year and provides good value and you 0:30:45.040 --> 0:30:47.040 can wind up getting a pretty good return for him, 0:30:47.040 --> 0:30:49.360 as long as he stays healthy, that is. But I 0:30:49.360 --> 0:30:51.280 do think Ward fits this format pretty well. 0:30:51.680 --> 0:30:53.680 Alec Bohm at fourteen oh eight, Lewis a Rise at 0:30:53.680 --> 0:30:56.800 fourteen oh nine, Ronaldo Lopez, Kevin Gosman, that Joe Rico, 0:30:56.880 --> 0:31:01.280 you took Jonathan India and Tyler O'Neil on India. Now 0:31:01.280 --> 0:31:03.640 that he is in KC, yeah, he gets a big boost. 0:31:03.640 --> 0:31:06.320 And on base percentage formats, he's usually outside of the 0:31:06.320 --> 0:31:08.520 top two hundred and most of these mocks we've been doing, 0:31:08.560 --> 0:31:10.200 but I love him this year. He's one of my 0:31:10.240 --> 0:31:13.600 most rostered players. I think my favorite second basement considering 0:31:13.600 --> 0:31:16.400 the costs to draft. He's not my number one second basement, 0:31:16.440 --> 0:31:19.120 but just considering where he's going the situation leading off 0:31:19.160 --> 0:31:22.720 ahead of Bobby Witt, sal Perez, Vinip. I think we'll 0:31:22.720 --> 0:31:24.520 see about VNP with this whole injury thing, but he 0:31:24.560 --> 0:31:26.040 looks pretty good, so I don't think he's gonna miss 0:31:26.080 --> 0:31:29.480 too much time. I think that Johnathan India is one 0:31:29.520 --> 0:31:31.760 of my favorite picks, one of the best values on 0:31:31.800 --> 0:31:34.560 the board this season, and then the other pick was 0:31:35.600 --> 0:31:38.800 who was the other one? That I took. It was 0:31:38.800 --> 0:31:42.120 India and it was Tyler Team I'm just kidding and 0:31:42.160 --> 0:31:44.480 Tyler O'Neal, and that was simply just needing a little 0:31:44.480 --> 0:31:46.600 bit of power. The projections have me eighth in the 0:31:46.640 --> 0:31:50.240 power department, not my favorite, but we're gonna try and 0:31:50.240 --> 0:31:51.960 make up for some of that cause I got a 0:31:52.000 --> 0:31:54.880 pretty pretty solid on base percentage base on ranked third 0:31:54.920 --> 0:31:57.000 there behind the two Chrisses, and then I think I 0:31:57.040 --> 0:31:58.520 need to just make up some power the rest of 0:31:58.560 --> 0:31:59.040 the way. 0:32:00.080 --> 0:32:02.000 All right, So see if you can make up that power, 0:32:02.520 --> 0:32:06.000 I'm gonna go ahead and take my selections here. Let's 0:32:06.000 --> 0:32:10.320 go through. I got a value pick, so before draft 0:32:10.360 --> 0:32:12.920 Wizard wasn't happy with me. Now a little bit better, 0:32:12.960 --> 0:32:15.160 so that's nice to see it's moving in the other 0:32:15.240 --> 0:32:18.800 direction there. All right, let's continue on here. After the 0:32:18.840 --> 0:32:21.480 selections from Joe, Rico, Tyler on you got use Kokuchi 0:32:21.560 --> 0:32:23.840 at fifteen oh two, Jeremy Penny at fifteen oh three, 0:32:23.920 --> 0:32:28.360 Rangifo at fifteen oh four, Kerry Carpenter, then Bryce and Stott. 0:32:28.360 --> 0:32:30.200 Stop lasted a long time, but if you're looking for 0:32:30.280 --> 0:32:32.440 stolen bases later in that middle infield spot, you could 0:32:32.440 --> 0:32:34.120 do worse than stop right Craig. 0:32:34.840 --> 0:32:37.400 Yeah, I think so, and you know, waiting on both 0:32:37.440 --> 0:32:40.320 my middle and field, it kind of left limited options. 0:32:40.360 --> 0:32:42.600 But uh yeah, I think that Stott. You know, we've 0:32:42.600 --> 0:32:45.280 seen him go fifteen thirty and I don't see a 0:32:45.320 --> 0:32:47.080 reason why he can't get back to who he was 0:32:47.360 --> 0:32:49.760 in twenty twenty three. A lot of the metrics last 0:32:49.800 --> 0:32:51.840 year in the hood were very similar twenty did in 0:32:51.880 --> 0:32:53.880 twenty twenty three. So kind of think we see a 0:32:53.880 --> 0:32:56.920 bounce back for him this year. And yeah, like you said, 0:32:56.960 --> 0:32:59.400 he feel kind of far and stone bases are there. 0:33:00.040 --> 0:33:03.400 Stuff Spencer Arraghetti than Ryan Presley, Welsh you took Nadyavaldi 0:33:03.440 --> 0:33:06.600 again sniping me. You're killing me Welsh quality starts, Man, 0:33:06.680 --> 0:33:09.000 I have coming back to you in a second, Paul 0:33:09.080 --> 0:33:11.920 gold Schmidt, then Jose Burrios, Pete Fairbanks to me, I'm 0:33:11.920 --> 0:33:15.720 getting the other closer. And then I have got Jackson Holiday, 0:33:15.800 --> 0:33:19.520 so profar Pepio Fairbanks Holiday my last couple of picks. Cleig, 0:33:19.840 --> 0:33:23.840 you're a prospect guy. Let's talk about Jackson Holiday second 0:33:23.920 --> 0:33:26.560 time around. What are we going to get from Jackson Holiday? 0:33:27.560 --> 0:33:29.560 I think he's definitely going to be better this year. 0:33:29.600 --> 0:33:32.960 It's hard to imagine that he's not. I mean, it's 0:33:33.040 --> 0:33:37.040 kind of funny that he's almost the opposite profile that 0:33:37.400 --> 0:33:39.680 he was billed to be as a prospect, and you know, 0:33:39.680 --> 0:33:41.720 all the big aulets through seventy grades on the hit tool, 0:33:42.000 --> 0:33:44.640 I was never there because the contact rates were never 0:33:44.680 --> 0:33:47.080 there from his pro debut, like in the miners at 0:33:47.120 --> 0:33:50.240 any point. But he's kind of become a power over 0:33:50.320 --> 0:33:52.800 hit guy, which is weird to say. His exit velocities 0:33:52.840 --> 0:33:55.520 are really good on pulled fly balls. He ran an 0:33:55.560 --> 0:33:57.800 exit velocity average TV north of one hundred miles an 0:33:57.840 --> 0:33:58.600 hour last year. 0:33:58.960 --> 0:33:59.600 He gets the ball in the. 0:33:59.600 --> 0:34:01.320 Air often and he hits it hard in the air, 0:34:01.680 --> 0:34:04.840 So holiday may not run the batting averages people think, 0:34:05.200 --> 0:34:07.320 but I do think there's going to be more juice 0:34:07.720 --> 0:34:09.799 and the LBP is going to be solid. Like he's 0:34:09.800 --> 0:34:12.120 got a really good approach. I think that's been cleaned up. 0:34:12.160 --> 0:34:15.239 It didn't look great last year in his debut, but 0:34:15.280 --> 0:34:18.640 again important to remember he just turned twenty one years old. 0:34:19.280 --> 0:34:22.120 Guys aren't going to be great. Most prospects come up 0:34:22.120 --> 0:34:23.799 and are going to struggle. It's just the nature of 0:34:23.800 --> 0:34:24.080 the game. 0:34:24.120 --> 0:34:27.000 I think everybody expects these guys to come up and 0:34:27.080 --> 0:34:28.800 light the world on fire like a Sodo or a 0:34:28.880 --> 0:34:31.279 Coonie or a Tatis did. But yeah, I think that 0:34:31.719 --> 0:34:34.240 he was rushed. I think the talent's there for sure, 0:34:35.120 --> 0:34:37.319 But I think that it all comes down to expectations, 0:34:37.320 --> 0:34:40.040 like what do you expect from Jackson holiday? I think 0:34:40.080 --> 0:34:42.839 he can give you an eighteen home run season this year. 0:34:43.360 --> 0:34:46.080 He can steal a few bags and be productive across 0:34:46.120 --> 0:34:48.759 the board. So yeah, I certainly think a bigger year 0:34:48.800 --> 0:34:49.680 is in order for him. 0:34:49.760 --> 0:34:52.760 I'll take that in the sixteenth round. Give me eighteen eighteen, 0:34:53.280 --> 0:34:56.959 maybe more. Who knows, Michael Tolia goes next to sixty 0:34:56.960 --> 0:34:59.880 to two than Alec Burlson, than Welsh to glabor to 0:35:00.480 --> 0:35:03.719 so Welsh. You know. I keep saying that although the 0:35:03.719 --> 0:35:07.120 ballpark factor is going to be worse than Yankee Stadium, 0:35:07.400 --> 0:35:09.440 I think him getting out of New York. Continue to 0:35:09.480 --> 0:35:11.040 say I think is the best medicine for him, and 0:35:11.040 --> 0:35:13.920 that Tiger's lineup is much better than people realize. What 0:35:13.960 --> 0:35:15.840 do you think you're in store for with Torres in 0:35:15.880 --> 0:35:16.640 twenty twenty five? 0:35:17.239 --> 0:35:19.880 Yeah, no, I agree with you that I think a 0:35:19.960 --> 0:35:22.160 change of scenery is going to be really important. There's 0:35:22.200 --> 0:35:23.960 an aggressiveness. He's going to get to hit in the 0:35:23.960 --> 0:35:26.799 middle of the lineup. Never been a huge OBP guy, 0:35:26.920 --> 0:35:29.319 but three point thirty last year, three forty seven the 0:35:29.360 --> 0:35:32.200 year before that, I've got a high OBP team. So 0:35:32.280 --> 0:35:34.439 I'm kind of banking on that bounce back to him 0:35:34.480 --> 0:35:37.160 to get to those mid twenty homers late in the draft. 0:35:37.160 --> 0:35:39.800 He seems really revived on that team. So it's a 0:35:39.800 --> 0:35:41.839 little speculative. But again, I have to play a little 0:35:41.840 --> 0:35:44.680 bit more speculative with this draft strategy that I've implemented, 0:35:44.920 --> 0:35:45.440 which is. 0:35:45.520 --> 0:35:49.000 Just riskier, just a little bit riskier, a little bit 0:35:49.160 --> 0:35:51.239 a little bit riskier there. All right, let's continue on 0:35:51.320 --> 0:35:54.120 with the picks here. So after you took Labor Torres 0:35:54.200 --> 0:35:58.080 and Cornassillos, Strand goes, then Tyler Stevenson Clegg took Max Munsey. 0:35:58.160 --> 0:36:00.760 He's back up on the clock Byron In at sixteen 0:36:00.800 --> 0:36:04.840 oh eight, Nico Horner Andres Amenez, Lane Thomas, then Lars Newpara, 0:36:04.920 --> 0:36:07.880 Joe Rico at sixteen twelve, and seventeen oh one Brandon 0:36:07.960 --> 0:36:11.040 Lau Lars newtbar Now that's a name that Welsh talked 0:36:11.040 --> 0:36:14.520 about a lot the last couple of years. Hasn't really 0:36:14.560 --> 0:36:17.520 come to fruition, so he still loves him. How do 0:36:17.600 --> 0:36:19.920 you feel about Lars Newpar You made this selection here, 0:36:19.960 --> 0:36:21.560 so you must have some faith in him as well. 0:36:21.960 --> 0:36:24.480 I do, And this is somebody that I've also liked 0:36:24.520 --> 0:36:26.880 for a long time. But the big thing is that 0:36:26.920 --> 0:36:28.520 we've seen it over the last couple of days that 0:36:28.600 --> 0:36:31.000 he looks like he might be leading off in Saint 0:36:31.080 --> 0:36:34.319 Louis Mason Winn the most recent spring training lineups that 0:36:34.360 --> 0:36:36.520 Mason Wins had a terrible spring, as much as I 0:36:36.560 --> 0:36:38.319 love him, and it looks like he might be batting 0:36:38.360 --> 0:36:40.400 towards the bottom of the order, if not even ninth, 0:36:40.480 --> 0:36:43.120 with Lars Newbar occupying one of those top two spots. 0:36:43.160 --> 0:36:46.040 Given his on base skills, that makes sense. He's a solid, 0:36:46.080 --> 0:36:49.840 well rounded five category contributor and I needed one more outfielder. 0:36:49.920 --> 0:36:52.960 So I love getting new Bar there and Brandon Low 0:36:53.080 --> 0:36:54.680 like I mentioned earlier, I need a little bit of 0:36:54.680 --> 0:36:57.279 power here. I can put him in as a corner infielder, 0:36:57.360 --> 0:37:00.720 first and second base eligibility on some format. So that's 0:37:00.800 --> 0:37:02.839 really about just making up some of the power loop 0:37:02.840 --> 0:37:04.200 Bar is the real prize there though. 0:37:05.520 --> 0:37:07.920 That's right, The real prize is the newt Bar. That's 0:37:07.960 --> 0:37:10.880 what it is, all right, Let's continue on here. After 0:37:11.440 --> 0:37:14.960 you have Brandon Loud, Mason win goes right after Brandon fought, 0:37:14.960 --> 0:37:17.920 then Victor Roblis, Zach Eflyn, Chris Kleig. You took ken 0:37:18.000 --> 0:37:21.360 Lee Jansen though he is now your next second closer. 0:37:21.400 --> 0:37:25.000 Excuse me. So when you have Jansen here, obviously an 0:37:25.000 --> 0:37:27.920 older closer, you got Joyce in that bullpen. Do you 0:37:27.960 --> 0:37:30.160 think Jansen ends up playing the whole year with the 0:37:30.200 --> 0:37:32.279 Angel You think same team might come knocking for a 0:37:32.360 --> 0:37:33.960 veteran closer at some point. 0:37:34.320 --> 0:37:37.719 Yeah, it's definitely possible they move him. I don't I've 0:37:37.760 --> 0:37:40.919 never been a Ben Joyce fan. He just doesn't miss 0:37:40.920 --> 0:37:43.319 bats like you'd expect from the Velocity. So I do 0:37:43.400 --> 0:37:45.279 think that Jansen keeps the role as long as he's 0:37:45.320 --> 0:37:47.759 in LA. I didn't want to say Kenley Jansen. I 0:37:47.800 --> 0:37:49.640 really wanted Pete Fairbanks a couple of rounds ago, and 0:37:49.680 --> 0:37:52.360 you took him, so I needed a closer, and I 0:37:52.400 --> 0:37:54.360 was like, well, I think he gets saved, so it's 0:37:54.800 --> 0:37:57.719 it was boring, but yeah, that's kind of where I went, 0:37:57.760 --> 0:37:59.920 even though I didn't love the pick there a bit. 0:38:00.440 --> 0:38:02.960 Another one out of my que Clay Holmes at seventeen 0:38:03.000 --> 0:38:06.200 oh seven that Sean Manaya. I'm getting brushed here. I mean, 0:38:06.280 --> 0:38:09.360 this is why I like the turn every now and 0:38:09.360 --> 0:38:10.759 then you get one of these rafts where it just 0:38:10.800 --> 0:38:13.520 does not work for you, where you're just getting obliterated, 0:38:13.760 --> 0:38:15.600 and that's what's happened to me. So Lair out of 0:38:15.600 --> 0:38:18.560 my Q two, that was my go to dh Thanks Welsh, 0:38:18.640 --> 0:38:22.480 way to go, Shane Bose, then rafaela Io take Brandon Woodrooff, 0:38:22.960 --> 0:38:24.839 So I'm gonna take a shot there on Woodroff, who 0:38:24.920 --> 0:38:27.640 velocity wise was up in the mid nineties. That's where 0:38:27.640 --> 0:38:29.680 you want him to be if he starts by the 0:38:29.760 --> 0:38:31.279 end of April, we were looking at a guy who 0:38:31.360 --> 0:38:33.359 was a front rotation guy, and then I took Matt 0:38:33.360 --> 0:38:35.760 Shaw because I still believe in Matt Shaw. Got some pop, 0:38:35.800 --> 0:38:39.439 got some speed, great hit tool position, flexibility as well. 0:38:39.520 --> 0:38:43.640 Ronel Blanco goes next than Austin Wells right before Welsh. 0:38:43.680 --> 0:38:45.719 That's got a sting. But so Laire and Tanner, how 0:38:46.040 --> 0:38:47.720 that's what you ended up with the last two rounds. 0:38:47.719 --> 0:38:51.279 Welsh, Yeah, I did. I pivoted to so Lair because 0:38:51.280 --> 0:38:54.279 I wanted Victor Robliss. It's the three DBP last two 0:38:54.320 --> 0:38:57.560 years high OBP, massive stolen bases. I would have, you know, 0:38:57.640 --> 0:38:59.440 utilized him as a U two or Movealva as it 0:38:59.440 --> 0:39:01.719 doesn't matter. I got sniped, so I went with the 0:39:01.760 --> 0:39:04.560 heavier power and so layer not as good of an OBP, 0:39:04.680 --> 0:39:07.040 but I'm still near the top tenor hawk again, just 0:39:07.080 --> 0:39:09.319 like guys that are gonna push innings. I felt really 0:39:09.320 --> 0:39:12.399 comfortable about that. There's still some pretty good solid SP 0:39:12.719 --> 0:39:14.840 values out there, but how ends up being like my 0:39:15.400 --> 0:39:17.640 he's like my SP five or six, and it's my 0:39:17.760 --> 0:39:20.480 SP six right now, so really good value. Looking for 0:39:20.520 --> 0:39:22.440 guys to push innings. You know, I passed on like 0:39:22.440 --> 0:39:25.279 Brandon fought for Evaldi because I want guys to go 0:39:25.320 --> 0:39:27.719 a little bit deeper in. So, yeah, not everything is 0:39:27.760 --> 0:39:30.760 working out one hundred percent here, but I'm relatively happy 0:39:30.760 --> 0:39:33.040 with this construction and dying to know, just to let 0:39:33.080 --> 0:39:35.960 everybody know, I am top five in every pitching category, 0:39:36.280 --> 0:39:39.160 but I am like nine or lower in four of 0:39:39.200 --> 0:39:41.680 the five hitting categories. So we're gonna have to see 0:39:41.719 --> 0:39:43.719 how the system is going to put me out here. 0:39:43.719 --> 0:39:46.520 Because I'm number one OBP, I'm the top, but we're 0:39:46.520 --> 0:39:47.080 gonna have to see. 0:39:47.120 --> 0:39:48.960 I'm predicting I'm going to be lasting this because I 0:39:49.000 --> 0:39:51.080 went pitcher pitcher. But we'll find out in a second. 0:39:51.200 --> 0:39:53.000 I just went off the board. Try something new. Hey, 0:39:53.080 --> 0:39:56.239 the last one, you know, at least, all I did was. 0:39:56.280 --> 0:39:57.400 I meant it's like college. 0:39:57.440 --> 0:39:59.880 You know what I did. I drove home the concept. 0:40:00.440 --> 0:40:03.960 I'm right wait on pitching, and that's good. It's sometimes 0:40:04.000 --> 0:40:05.640 you need to just get it out of your system 0:40:05.680 --> 0:40:06.640 one time, and I did. 0:40:06.960 --> 0:40:07.000 So. 0:40:07.120 --> 0:40:09.080 Hope all of you can learn from this. Tannerhow Goes 0:40:09.120 --> 0:40:11.960 and Carlos, Garrea, Zachneto, Cleig. You took Tommy Edmond th 0:40:11.960 --> 0:40:16.440 and todj Bradley, Alec, Alexis Diaz, Yondi, Diaz Actebec Diaz Boys, 0:40:16.560 --> 0:40:19.360 Jordan Romanald then Reese Olsen and jo Rico and Gabriel Moreno. 0:40:19.719 --> 0:40:22.440 So catch her off the board for you. Gabriel Moreno 0:40:22.960 --> 0:40:25.319 another one that I think offensive. We've been waiting to 0:40:25.320 --> 0:40:27.000 see this other gear in him, but we just haven't 0:40:27.000 --> 0:40:29.440 seen it yet. Is this the season we do for Moreno? 0:40:29.719 --> 0:40:32.319 I'm hoping so. I think if he plays a whole 0:40:32.360 --> 0:40:34.719 season or a whole catcher season. One hundred and twenty 0:40:34.760 --> 0:40:36.719 five hundred and thirty games. We could maybe see him 0:40:36.760 --> 0:40:39.400 get to double digit homers, chipping a couple of steals. 0:40:39.760 --> 0:40:41.360 The on base percentage is going to be good, and 0:40:41.360 --> 0:40:44.080 the lineup is very good. Arizona scored the most runs 0:40:44.080 --> 0:40:46.000 in the major leagues last season. So for a punt 0:40:46.000 --> 0:40:47.319 at the position, I'll take it. 0:40:47.680 --> 0:40:50.680 Punting at the position. There you have it, everybody, all right, 0:40:50.960 --> 0:40:54.000 let's see I need I am done with util there. 0:40:54.000 --> 0:40:56.279 I don't know why it's telling me to take this guy. 0:40:56.280 --> 0:40:57.480 I don't want to take that guy. I'm going to 0:40:57.560 --> 0:40:59.960 take this guy instead because I'm worried about the rest 0:41:00.040 --> 0:41:02.680 of these Jabbroni's in this draft. So Gabriel Moreno goes, 0:41:02.760 --> 0:41:07.720 David Bedner goes, Nicko Lodolo goes, then he'll gore Craig Claige. 0:41:07.719 --> 0:41:12.200 Excuse me, you took Bowden Francis. Francis had a terrific season, 0:41:12.239 --> 0:41:15.080 about one hundred innings or so. So now we're talking 0:41:15.080 --> 0:41:18.600 about league adjustments, him adjusting back. How do you see 0:41:18.600 --> 0:41:20.360 that shaking out? And here's a fun one for you. 0:41:20.400 --> 0:41:23.000 Who throws more innings this year? Bowden Francis or Max 0:41:23.040 --> 0:41:25.280 Schurzer for the Blue Jays Joe Rico earmuffs. 0:41:26.600 --> 0:41:28.839 I debated both of those picks there. 0:41:28.880 --> 0:41:31.880 So I was looking at Scherger and Francis, and I 0:41:31.880 --> 0:41:34.720 would bet that Francis throws more innings. I just don't 0:41:34.719 --> 0:41:38.239 trust Schurzer to stay healthy. Unfortunately, get that age and 0:41:38.520 --> 0:41:40.200 you got all kind of injuries popping up. I've seen 0:41:40.239 --> 0:41:42.920 it with Scherger and Erlander the last few years. Still 0:41:43.040 --> 0:41:46.240 very talented, but also the question like what does Francis 0:41:46.239 --> 0:41:48.600 get to threw one hundred and three last year? What's 0:41:48.640 --> 0:41:50.760 the jump? I think you can get to one fifty. 0:41:50.800 --> 0:41:53.279 I think that's pretty reasonable, But is it a slow 0:41:53.320 --> 0:41:55.960 build up? Like is he getting six innings early in 0:41:56.000 --> 0:41:58.120 the year? And the answer is probably not, So it 0:41:58.120 --> 0:41:59.880 could be a case where he is building up through 0:42:00.080 --> 0:42:02.440 the year to get to those six innings regularly. But 0:42:02.600 --> 0:42:04.600 I do buy some of the changes he made last 0:42:04.640 --> 0:42:06.719 year with the pitch mix change, and we got the 0:42:06.760 --> 0:42:08.759 results with it. Now, is he going to be that 0:42:08.800 --> 0:42:11.000 good for a whole season? No, Like, I don't expect 0:42:11.040 --> 0:42:13.360 him to have a three thirty arras sub one whip, 0:42:13.800 --> 0:42:16.319 but if I get a high three ZRA and a 0:42:16.360 --> 0:42:19.120 whip below one twenty, I think it's pretty good value 0:42:19.320 --> 0:42:21.360 in that spot is one of my finals P to 0:42:21.400 --> 0:42:22.080 fill out the roster. 0:42:22.360 --> 0:42:23.960 I agree in a lot of leagues. He qualifies at 0:42:24.000 --> 0:42:27.800 RP too. Guriel goes next, Clark Schmidt, Hazus Lozardo to 0:42:27.880 --> 0:42:31.840 the Welsh again. Thanks Welsh, rask me, said Nester Cortez. 0:42:31.880 --> 0:42:34.680 I took JJ Blede and Ivan Herrera, so I got 0:42:34.680 --> 0:42:36.920 my catcher there, Walker Bueller in twenty oh two, then 0:42:37.000 --> 0:42:40.920 Mitch Keller, Trevor Story, Welsh Trevor Story, and Hazus Lozardo. 0:42:42.040 --> 0:42:44.640 Once upon a time, you know, Trevor Story was a 0:42:44.640 --> 0:42:47.040 good fantasy player. That has not been the case for 0:42:47.080 --> 0:42:50.520 some time. I'm curious, why take Trevor's story and not 0:42:50.719 --> 0:42:53.960 Christian Campbell just for the upside, for the youth. I'm curious, 0:42:54.000 --> 0:42:54.719 why'd you do that. 0:42:55.600 --> 0:42:58.960 It's so funny that you say that, because I do 0:42:59.040 --> 0:43:00.160 think I think. 0:43:00.280 --> 0:43:02.120 I know how you think I know the brain of 0:43:02.160 --> 0:43:02.560 the Welsh. 0:43:02.560 --> 0:43:05.680 I spent I was staring at them. I probably, like 0:43:05.800 --> 0:43:08.839 Christian Campbell, probably should have been the play. I didn't 0:43:08.880 --> 0:43:10.799 think it would help me in the projection here a ton, 0:43:10.880 --> 0:43:12.680 because the projections are kind of wonky, and I think 0:43:12.680 --> 0:43:17.440 you could slow start probably the better choice with Christian Campbell. 0:43:17.480 --> 0:43:19.319 I just, I just I do believe if Trevor Story 0:43:19.320 --> 0:43:21.640 plays a season, he's a twenty twenty guy. He's just 0:43:21.680 --> 0:43:23.719 not a big push on OBP. But yeah, I know 0:43:23.760 --> 0:43:26.000 it's a fair point, and it's a thousand percent. I 0:43:26.040 --> 0:43:27.480 was staring at both of them and be like, do 0:43:27.560 --> 0:43:31.880 I just take Campbell or do I risk maybe potentially 0:43:31.920 --> 0:43:35.680 trying to win this draft. Campbell was probably the better choice. 0:43:35.760 --> 0:43:39.200 All right, all right, let's move on here. After Trevor's story, 0:43:39.320 --> 0:43:42.600 you have Max Scherzer, than Ajpuck, Nathaniel Low to Chris Klegg, 0:43:42.600 --> 0:43:46.960 who's back on the clock, Jackson job erseg Aronado Alvarez, 0:43:47.000 --> 0:43:49.640 who I like, you're getting value single catcher leagues man, 0:43:49.880 --> 0:43:52.879 you can wait get wells Herrera Alvarez is gonna start 0:43:52.920 --> 0:43:55.200 the year hurt. The handmapone can be tricky, but you'll 0:43:55.200 --> 0:43:57.439 probably plug and play a ten or twelve team league 0:43:57.480 --> 0:43:59.600 for a couple of weeks, or even a month or 0:43:59.719 --> 0:44:02.560 and a half if you needed that long. Justin Martinez 0:44:02.640 --> 0:44:04.920 to Joe Rico and Jeffrey Springs. Springs the guy that 0:44:04.960 --> 0:44:07.640 I've been talking about a lot recently. He was just 0:44:07.640 --> 0:44:09.040 in our League Winner show. If you miss that, you 0:44:09.040 --> 0:44:11.359 can go back and watch on our YouTube channel that 0:44:11.960 --> 0:44:15.200 if he regains any sort of form before the injury. 0:44:15.320 --> 0:44:18.120 And look last year he did come back some mixed results, 0:44:18.160 --> 0:44:20.560 but the strikeout to walk ratio was there, the k's 0:44:20.600 --> 0:44:23.800 were there in spring. I think Springs is really tempting, 0:44:23.880 --> 0:44:25.440 especially because he's basically free. 0:44:25.760 --> 0:44:27.839 Yeah, it was one of my last pitchers. I'm kind 0:44:27.840 --> 0:44:30.160 of hoping exactly what you're saying, that he can bounce 0:44:30.200 --> 0:44:32.080 back to where he was before. He's throwing three hundred 0:44:32.120 --> 0:44:34.680 and thirteen innings in his career, three point thirty nine 0:44:34.760 --> 0:44:37.720 ERA one twenty five whip with almost a twenty percent 0:44:37.760 --> 0:44:40.200 strikeout minus walk rate. If I can get that in 0:44:40.239 --> 0:44:42.719 the later rounds essentially as like a bench piece, I'll 0:44:43.040 --> 0:44:45.120 I'll take that every day from Springs, it's all upside 0:44:45.120 --> 0:44:47.839 And Justin Martinez, they just paid the man, so I'm 0:44:47.880 --> 0:44:50.000 kind of banking on him being the closer. Well, shear 0:44:50.040 --> 0:44:52.200 the Diamondbacks guy. What do you think? Does that sound 0:44:52.200 --> 0:44:52.640 about right? 0:44:54.040 --> 0:44:55.799 I think they're going to just implement both of the 0:44:55.840 --> 0:44:58.799 guys like they just signed Justin Martinez. I think he's 0:44:58.800 --> 0:45:00.799 the future. I think Puck is the best of them, 0:45:00.880 --> 0:45:03.160 and I think they will fire man it between them. 0:45:03.719 --> 0:45:06.040 I've been pretty adamant that Puck is my guy, but 0:45:06.680 --> 0:45:08.080 at the end of the day, it could be Justin 0:45:08.080 --> 0:45:11.000 Martinez saves fifteen games, Puck saves twenty, or it could 0:45:11.000 --> 0:45:13.960 be around the other side. So I think either one plays. 0:45:14.120 --> 0:45:15.920 I like the fall of the money strategy, though that 0:45:15.960 --> 0:45:19.200 typically does work out, although the Diamondbacks have had trouble 0:45:19.280 --> 0:45:22.399 sometimes pending the money in weird choices they make. Josh Young, 0:45:23.160 --> 0:45:29.160 John Yeah, Andrew Vaughn, Kumar Rocker, Garcia, Michael Waka to Clegg. Now, Clegg, 0:45:29.200 --> 0:45:30.719 I know you took Michael Waka. I know you're on 0:45:30.760 --> 0:45:32.359 the clock again here every time I come to Clegg 0:45:32.360 --> 0:45:34.560 because he's in the middle of the draft. Somehow he's 0:45:34.560 --> 0:45:37.120 out there. But he made his pick. It was Jake McCarthy. 0:45:37.200 --> 0:45:39.439 So Rocker another prospect I want to talk to you about. 0:45:39.440 --> 0:45:42.399 I know it wasn't your pick, but Kumar Rocker another guy, 0:45:42.440 --> 0:45:45.240 big strikeout potential, But the question is about the innings 0:45:45.239 --> 0:45:47.799 and what he can sustain this year. I could coming 0:45:47.840 --> 0:45:49.200 back to the fact that I think he would be 0:45:49.239 --> 0:45:52.960 an electric least Smith type closer do you think that 0:45:53.400 --> 0:45:55.040 at some point you might see him in the bullpen 0:45:55.080 --> 0:45:56.360 this year or you think he stays a starter and 0:45:56.400 --> 0:45:58.000 they just manage those innings. 0:45:58.600 --> 0:46:01.600 I'm guessing he probably has innings managed as a starter. 0:46:02.000 --> 0:46:05.040 They need starters, is the problem in Texas, and they've 0:46:05.040 --> 0:46:09.160 had some injuries. Cody Bradford went down John Gray, they 0:46:09.200 --> 0:46:11.839 had talked about him and the bullpen. Also, he's out, 0:46:11.960 --> 0:46:15.839 So I think that Rocker's the guy in that rotation now. 0:46:16.040 --> 0:46:18.320 I mean, I don't think Jack Lyder is that good. 0:46:18.520 --> 0:46:21.040 Like everybody's talked about Jack Lder spring, he still has 0:46:21.200 --> 0:46:21.920 zero fiel for. 0:46:21.880 --> 0:46:22.680 Command at all. 0:46:22.760 --> 0:46:26.080 I agree, and I think that Rocker is the better 0:46:26.120 --> 0:46:28.520 suited starter there. Lighter could go to the bullpen and 0:46:28.560 --> 0:46:31.560 potentially play up, but no, I'm certainly on Rocker. 0:46:31.680 --> 0:46:32.919 The fastball is really good. 0:46:32.960 --> 0:46:36.160 He has that bullet slider that missus bats, and he's 0:46:36.200 --> 0:46:37.919 kind of tinkered with a change up at times where 0:46:37.920 --> 0:46:40.400 I think that that could be the pitch that kind 0:46:40.400 --> 0:46:41.920 of pushes him over the edge as a starter. 0:46:42.560 --> 0:46:44.359 And the innings are the question. 0:46:44.400 --> 0:46:47.000 You know, you mentioned that last year he threw thirty 0:46:47.040 --> 0:46:49.800 six innings in the minors and I'm twelve in the majors, 0:46:49.840 --> 0:46:51.920 so not a lot of intings at all. So how 0:46:51.920 --> 0:46:54.080 do they push him? Like how many does he get 0:46:54.080 --> 0:46:55.880 this year? Does he even get one hundred? You know 0:46:55.920 --> 0:46:58.480 that's that is a question mark. But I think if 0:46:58.560 --> 0:47:01.080 healthy like they are going to push and see where 0:47:01.080 --> 0:47:01.279 it goes. 0:47:01.480 --> 0:47:02.880 That's why I like the closer role because the same 0:47:02.920 --> 0:47:04.480 with Mason Miller is like, well, okay, how do you 0:47:04.480 --> 0:47:06.239 get the best out of this guy? The way you 0:47:06.320 --> 0:47:08.359 do it is by giving him cleaning things, making sure 0:47:08.400 --> 0:47:11.399 he's only pitching so many days a week, and letting 0:47:11.520 --> 0:47:13.399 go out there and just let all hang out. And 0:47:13.440 --> 0:47:16.520 the work with Mason Miller, I think I think Rocker, 0:47:16.640 --> 0:47:18.400 they would serve this team very well if they were 0:47:18.440 --> 0:47:20.920 to do that. But we'll see. Michael Walker goes that 0:47:21.000 --> 0:47:23.440 Willie cashro you, Darvis, well, she look at that. You 0:47:23.480 --> 0:47:24.759 had your cake and you ate it too. I knew 0:47:24.760 --> 0:47:26.320 you're gonna tay Christian Campbell the way back if it 0:47:26.360 --> 0:47:28.560 made it too. I was hoping Cleig would snipe you 0:47:28.600 --> 0:47:30.160 there the worst. 0:47:29.960 --> 0:47:31.960 You guys let me have him. I got my balance. 0:47:32.000 --> 0:47:34.279 I got Christian Campbell, who's the better pick. But I 0:47:34.360 --> 0:47:37.600 also got story to bat. I just should have flipped it. So, Hey, 0:47:37.719 --> 0:47:40.120 you know what, good things happen to good people, Joe, 0:47:40.400 --> 0:47:41.279 So what I'm saying. 0:47:41.640 --> 0:47:44.800 If you say so? All right, Granger Swarez, then Merril Kelly. 0:47:44.840 --> 0:47:47.400 I took Luis s Everino, and then Reese Hoskins, Carlos 0:47:47.480 --> 0:47:50.279 Estefez goes next, Cedric Mullins. Well, she took a role 0:47:50.360 --> 0:47:53.640 as Chapman who gets more saves this year? Chapman or 0:47:53.640 --> 0:47:54.840 Hendrix for the Red Sox. 0:47:54.880 --> 0:47:57.960 As you continued to stack it, I think it's going 0:47:58.040 --> 0:48:00.000 to be Chapman. I know that they've kind of gone 0:48:00.120 --> 0:48:03.600 back and forth. Liam Hendrick said Chapman is a better 0:48:03.600 --> 0:48:06.600 reliever right now, but they have said that Hendricks has 0:48:06.680 --> 0:48:08.239 not done with it. I don't think Chapman's going to 0:48:08.320 --> 0:48:09.840 let it go. I think Boston's going to be a 0:48:09.840 --> 0:48:12.279 powerhouse this year. I think we might look back and 0:48:12.320 --> 0:48:14.719 we might just laugh at ourselves for how late e 0:48:14.719 --> 0:48:16.640 world as Chapman went could be wrong, but guess what, 0:48:17.120 --> 0:48:19.600 he is a bench reliever for me. He's my third reliever, 0:48:19.719 --> 0:48:20.920 So I'm feeling pretty good about that. 0:48:21.000 --> 0:48:24.759 Yeah, look, man, forget about it. I think that you know, 0:48:24.880 --> 0:48:26.400 you can get those guys late. That's why I like 0:48:26.440 --> 0:48:29.240 to wait on closers. Typically it's what I do. Chapman 0:48:29.280 --> 0:48:32.160 goes and Kirby Yates, Zach Gelof, Clegg takes, Jake McCarthy, 0:48:32.200 --> 0:48:35.799 Helio Ramos. Nice value there, Kyle Finnegan, Connor Norby who's 0:48:35.800 --> 0:48:38.279 actually starting now on the IL. We just found that 0:48:38.320 --> 0:48:42.080 out today. Ben Joyce favorite of Chris Clegg. Jock Peterson 0:48:42.160 --> 0:48:45.239 to Joe Rico Grant Holmes. So nice picks here, Joe Rico. 0:48:45.280 --> 0:48:47.720 He got some more power in Texas with Jock Peterson 0:48:47.760 --> 0:48:50.440 coming off a really solid power season and Grant Holmes 0:48:50.760 --> 0:48:53.480 a really solid year in that rotation for the Atlanta Braves. 0:48:53.640 --> 0:48:55.840 Yeah, I love Peterson. I've talked a couple of times 0:48:55.840 --> 0:48:57.759 now that I needed a little bit more power. I'm 0:48:57.840 --> 0:48:59.759 just gonna take one bench bat and he'll be the 0:48:59.760 --> 0:49:02.160 one in the head to head league. I think that 0:49:02.200 --> 0:49:04.759 you can slot him in there and he's probably only 0:49:04.760 --> 0:49:06.560 going to play against right handed pitching, but I'll definitely 0:49:06.600 --> 0:49:10.040 take that production. And then Grant Holmes. I really like 0:49:10.239 --> 0:49:13.680 his potential this season. I don't know what to expect 0:49:13.680 --> 0:49:15.759 from a volume standpoint, but I think while he's out there, 0:49:15.800 --> 0:49:18.399 he's going to be very, very good. And I think 0:49:18.440 --> 0:49:20.960 that you're probably looking at a mid to high three 0:49:21.040 --> 0:49:23.480 Zra with a one twenty whip or something like that. 0:49:23.560 --> 0:49:27.600 Does that sound about right? Chris Clegg, Yeah, yeah, I 0:49:27.600 --> 0:49:27.960 think so. 0:49:28.040 --> 0:49:29.719 I like Holmes a lot. He's sneaky. 0:49:30.719 --> 0:49:33.880 Ryan Malcassel at twenty three to zero two, Jason Foley, 0:49:33.920 --> 0:49:36.200 that Michael conford O Tario Estrada, who's also going to 0:49:36.239 --> 0:49:39.360 miss a significant start to the season. Matthew Boyd to 0:49:39.440 --> 0:49:41.759 Chris Cleig, who guess what he's on the clock. We'll 0:49:41.760 --> 0:49:44.279 come back to you in a second, Chris Bassett, Brendan Donovan, No, 0:49:44.400 --> 0:49:46.879 you made your pick, great, Matthew Boyd. Your last pick 0:49:46.920 --> 0:49:49.040 Garrett Mitchell. That's a favorite sleeper that's been on the 0:49:49.040 --> 0:49:51.520 show for quite some time. So let's talk about Garrett Mitchell. 0:49:53.000 --> 0:49:55.080 I think Garrett Mitchell says to say healthy and he's 0:49:55.520 --> 0:49:57.360 not proved to do that at any point in his career, 0:49:57.600 --> 0:50:00.800 and that's an issue. But your last picking, your draft 0:50:00.840 --> 0:50:03.480 is made to kind of churn. If it works out great, 0:50:03.680 --> 0:50:06.600 like there's power, there's speed. Yes, he has to lift 0:50:06.600 --> 0:50:08.560 the ball more to get to that power. We know 0:50:08.600 --> 0:50:10.560 that he has too many ground balls, but he does 0:50:10.600 --> 0:50:13.040 hit the ball incredibly hard, he's got a lead sprint speed, 0:50:13.080 --> 0:50:16.080 he's gonna steal bases, and there's obep skills as well. 0:50:16.120 --> 0:50:18.520 Like you look at the THELP last year three forty 0:50:18.520 --> 0:50:22.319 two in two and twenty four played appearances. It's just 0:50:22.400 --> 0:50:25.320 the factor of can Garrett Mitchell actually play a full season. 0:50:25.960 --> 0:50:27.680 He's got to prove it to us. But I'll take 0:50:27.719 --> 0:50:29.279 my chances with the last pick there that he can 0:50:29.320 --> 0:50:31.120 give you a twenty twenty season. I don't think that's 0:50:31.160 --> 0:50:34.279 crazy to say if he plays and gets five hundred 0:50:34.320 --> 0:50:35.239 plus played appearances. 0:50:35.440 --> 0:50:39.480 Okay, last picks here, just recapping as we go. So 0:50:39.719 --> 0:50:44.400 after Boyd and Bassett, Donovan, Dustin May, Holton McMahon, I 0:50:44.400 --> 0:50:46.680 took Cole Keith and David Peterson. I was tempted to 0:50:46.680 --> 0:50:49.640 take Max Meyer two, but I ty to go. Peterson's 0:50:49.680 --> 0:50:51.920 having a great spring and he's got a spot in 0:50:51.920 --> 0:50:53.760 that Mets rotation. They're gonna score a ton of runs, 0:50:53.760 --> 0:50:59.280 morel than Verlander, Kybert Ruiz, Ryan Weathers, Brady Singer, Garrett Mitchell, Festa, sorry, 0:50:59.360 --> 0:51:03.680 Joel Rico, Tyler, Fitzgerald, James as Ion, excuse me, Jake 0:51:03.719 --> 0:51:06.960 Croninworth and Eric Fetti. So it was much better if 0:51:07.040 --> 0:51:09.239 Draft Wizard liked me more than I thought. I got 0:51:09.280 --> 0:51:12.400 a B plus it was not the best of us. 0:51:12.880 --> 0:51:15.359 Chris Clegg was better than me. He finished at number 0:51:15.360 --> 0:51:18.560 two overall. I finished at number four. Joe Elrico at 0:51:18.560 --> 0:51:20.920 the number one spot with Shoe Aotan. He took one 0:51:20.960 --> 0:51:24.040 for the team and took home the gold. So gold 0:51:24.080 --> 0:51:26.960 to you, bron excuse me, silver to Chris Clegg. Team 0:51:27.000 --> 0:51:29.719 three gets the bronze. I'm on the outside looking in, 0:51:29.760 --> 0:51:31.759 but at least I beat the Welsh, who is in 0:51:31.840 --> 0:51:33.920 fifth place. That's all that matters Welsh. 0:51:33.680 --> 0:51:35.759 That's all the good guys always finished last. That's what 0:51:35.800 --> 0:51:38.839 I've always said, bad thing, bad things happening to great people. 0:51:38.920 --> 0:51:40.719 Is really sad to see that I finished. I gotta 0:51:40.760 --> 0:51:43.000 be but I was behind Joe. So it's a pretty 0:51:43.160 --> 0:51:45.640 pretty demoralizing way to end the season, to be behind 0:51:45.640 --> 0:51:46.080 a piece of. 0:51:46.080 --> 0:51:48.560 Pay first time for everything, the first time all draft 0:51:48.600 --> 0:51:50.640 season that Ariel Cohen is actually like my draft. I 0:51:50.640 --> 0:51:53.520 love this. This makes me very happy. There. Chris Towers 0:51:53.520 --> 0:51:56.920 hated it, Andy Barons hated it. Chris Cleig. When you 0:51:56.960 --> 0:51:59.759 look at the expert opinions, did you get any any 0:51:59.800 --> 0:52:03.080 positive or negative for any experts that we might know 0:52:03.160 --> 0:52:03.520 and love. 0:52:04.239 --> 0:52:04.600 I did not. 0:52:04.760 --> 0:52:08.439 Actually I didn't any from anybody. But what if said, 0:52:08.760 --> 0:52:10.680 if you drafted Matt Olsen at three point six in 0:52:10.680 --> 0:52:12.960 the outfield later, you would have scored higher. That's exactly 0:52:12.960 --> 0:52:14.400 what I say. When it happened, and when he came 0:52:14.400 --> 0:52:16.359 back in the round, I was like, yeah, I wish 0:52:16.400 --> 0:52:19.360 I had taken Olsen over Harper. So yeah, it agreed 0:52:19.360 --> 0:52:19.799 with me, but. 0:52:20.360 --> 0:52:22.040 You actually did. And I'll read it off for you 0:52:22.160 --> 0:52:26.320 if you gotta click on after summary expert. 0:52:26.520 --> 0:52:27.680 I did not do that well. 0:52:27.719 --> 0:52:31.600 Lake Meyer loved you the most. Scott Pianowski, Kelly Kirby, 0:52:31.640 --> 0:52:34.719 Andy Barons, and Chase Davis all big things up. Frank 0:52:34.760 --> 0:52:38.000 Amerant hated you, thanks for garbage. keV hated you. Greg 0:52:38.000 --> 0:52:40.840 Smith it was number one in projections for the season 0:52:40.880 --> 0:52:44.840 last year. Hated you and Riol Cohen not a bit, Sorry, Ariol. 0:52:45.120 --> 0:52:47.399 What's okay? Here's my draft every single time. Let's talk 0:52:47.400 --> 0:52:50.919 about Clegg's team, cal Rawley, Bryce Harper, Ander Bolgar's, Bryson Stock, 0:52:51.040 --> 0:52:56.920 Viento's Nathaniel Lowe, Edmund Juan Soto, Schwarber, Cowser, Ward McCarthy. 0:52:57.360 --> 0:53:01.960 The pitching staff phenomenal, Reagan's Valdez, Biby, Zach Gallon, Steele, 0:53:02.080 --> 0:53:03.840 you'll go to war with that in the headhead than Bowden, 0:53:03.880 --> 0:53:08.600 Francis Waka, Hellsley Jensen. The bench is Munsey, Mitchell and Boyd. 0:53:08.719 --> 0:53:11.280 So what would you grade this, Chris Clegg? 0:53:12.160 --> 0:53:14.280 I think it's a solid Bee. I think I waited 0:53:14.320 --> 0:53:15.480 too long in the middle endfield. 0:53:15.520 --> 0:53:16.359 That hurt. 0:53:16.520 --> 0:53:20.120 I mean, having to roll with Stotton Bogart's like I 0:53:20.160 --> 0:53:23.520 don't love. And then certainly the middle endfield spot ye 0:53:23.760 --> 0:53:26.399 not great, but I think I think as well Sho 0:53:26.560 --> 0:53:28.560 kind of refer to in the draft waiting an outfield 0:53:29.120 --> 0:53:31.080 certainly would have been the play, just because there were 0:53:31.080 --> 0:53:32.520 so many good outfield values. 0:53:32.760 --> 0:53:33.839 I like the pitching staff, though. 0:53:33.840 --> 0:53:36.720 I think the pitching turned out really good considering and 0:53:36.760 --> 0:53:39.080 I waited a bit and so I'm happy on that end. 0:53:40.000 --> 0:53:42.439 Don't love Kenley Jansen, probably could have had a better 0:53:42.520 --> 0:53:45.720 value there. Kind of panicked after I lost Peter Fairbanks, 0:53:45.760 --> 0:53:48.040 so I really wanted and just grab Jansen. 0:53:48.120 --> 0:53:50.359 But it's it's a solid Bee. 0:53:50.440 --> 0:53:53.040 I think it could have been better from several different aspects, 0:53:53.120 --> 0:53:54.480 but I don't hate it. 0:53:55.160 --> 0:53:56.480 Just got the tweet of the year two. I just 0:53:56.520 --> 0:54:00.680 saw on Twitter someone listener to the show said, subtweeted 0:54:00.719 --> 0:54:04.759 our fp MLB news tweet about Evan Carter getting sent 0:54:04.800 --> 0:54:07.479 down and said, if only everyone listened to Joe Pizzapia More. 0:54:08.000 --> 0:54:11.000 I agree, I agree, that was just breaking news. 0:54:10.760 --> 0:54:12.600 There found. 0:54:14.440 --> 0:54:16.480 All right, Joe Rico, you're the best of us. So 0:54:16.560 --> 0:54:20.040 let's talk about your drafter, Gabriel Moreno uh At Catcher, 0:54:20.080 --> 0:54:23.279 Freddie Freeman, Ozzie Albi's, Dansby Swanson. He saw paradis really 0:54:23.320 --> 0:54:25.600 solid here uh Low in India in the middle and 0:54:25.680 --> 0:54:28.960 corner spots than Ian Hap, Randy Rose, Arena, O'Neil, Lars 0:54:29.000 --> 0:54:31.840 new Bar, joey Otani the difference maker right there in 0:54:31.840 --> 0:54:35.240 the util spot. Then the pitching staff Crochet, Emonaga, web 0:54:35.440 --> 0:54:40.879 Strider Man that is solid, Sanchez, Reese, Olsen, Springs, Devin Williams, Martinez, 0:54:40.920 --> 0:54:44.400 and then Peterson Holmesnfetti on the bench. I agree. I 0:54:44.719 --> 0:54:47.319 think this is an A minus. Did you get an 0:54:47.320 --> 0:54:49.320 A or a minus? What was it? Or is a plus? 0:54:49.640 --> 0:54:51.600 I got a legit A. There's no Canadian a's on 0:54:51.640 --> 0:54:54.080 this episode. This is a Did you know this? 0:54:54.960 --> 0:54:57.279 Chris Clegg, did you know, go ahead, Rico, tell them 0:54:57.320 --> 0:54:58.720 about how they great stuff up in Canada. 0:54:58.760 --> 0:55:00.719 All right, So here we go, gonna get myself in 0:55:00.719 --> 0:55:02.839 more trouble in the comments, but let's let's have it. 0:55:03.000 --> 0:55:06.440 So in the way that the grading system works is 0:55:06.440 --> 0:55:09.880 that ninety two one hundred counts as a plus, eighty 0:55:09.960 --> 0:55:13.600 six through eighty nine is an A, eighty one to 0:55:13.600 --> 0:55:17.360 eighty five is a minus, and then seventy through seventy 0:55:17.440 --> 0:55:20.600 nine is B, sixty through sixty nine is C, Fifty 0:55:20.600 --> 0:55:22.200 through fifty nine is D. 0:55:23.480 --> 0:55:25.279 It's like impossible to fail pretty much. 0:55:25.520 --> 0:55:28.160 I mean, it's the crazy it is. 0:55:28.160 --> 0:55:30.760 Then you get extra credit and just say you're sorry 0:55:30.800 --> 0:55:33.840 for getting a bad grade. That that you get right about. 0:55:34.400 --> 0:55:36.400 That conversion is the wildest of all. 0:55:36.520 --> 0:55:39.359 It's so good, right, and this blew our mind last time, 0:55:39.440 --> 0:55:42.760 so I wanted to share it with somebody New Welsh. 0:55:42.840 --> 0:55:44.839 Let's take a look at your squad here and see 0:55:44.880 --> 0:55:47.080 what you think. Fifth place, that's what a good enough 0:55:47.120 --> 0:55:51.840 for Kybert Ruiz, Christian Walker, Glaber Torres, Xavier Edwards, Heno 0:55:52.080 --> 0:55:56.960 Sarez Cosas, Story Corbyn, Carrol Alvarez, James Wood, Mike trout Hore, Hilaire, 0:55:57.000 --> 0:56:00.440 than the pitching staff, Gilbert Sale, I'll contra of Aldi, 0:56:00.520 --> 0:56:05.200 how Gavin Williams, Lazaro fantastic, Mason Miller, Scott, and then 0:56:05.280 --> 0:56:07.879 Christian Campbell, world as Chapman and Dustin May on the bench. Boy, 0:56:07.920 --> 0:56:10.360 I bet the Red Sox are ready to win that division. 0:56:10.880 --> 0:56:13.279 Uh if they do, you're gonna be a happy boy 0:56:13.320 --> 0:56:13.480 with this. 0:56:13.600 --> 0:56:13.719 Ross. 0:56:14.680 --> 0:56:17.640 Go over to betting pros and listen to uh Seth Wilcock, 0:56:17.920 --> 0:56:21.000 Rico and myself did a preseason betting show and I'm 0:56:21.000 --> 0:56:22.920 definitely in on a lot of different Red Sox things. 0:56:23.239 --> 0:56:27.279 I don't know. Yeah, you're usually the host on that 0:56:27.360 --> 0:56:29.360 you you were excluded, Sorry, buddy. 0:56:29.120 --> 0:56:32.279 And I got a short coming out with my favorite bet. 0:56:32.320 --> 0:56:34.120 Maybe that's why, Maybe that's why. 0:56:34.120 --> 0:56:36.080 Maybe maybe you know, don't want to didn't want to 0:56:36.120 --> 0:56:38.719 do Otani plus another person for MV. 0:56:38.880 --> 0:56:41.200 It's just good. That's just good practice, Bro, that's just 0:56:41.239 --> 0:56:44.360 good practice. Actually MVP, whether we like it or so. 0:56:44.400 --> 0:56:47.160 On this team, I think this is like this is 0:56:47.320 --> 0:56:50.080 I do think I'm getting undercut on a couple things. 0:56:50.160 --> 0:56:51.880 I'm I think it's undercutting me a little bit on 0:56:51.960 --> 0:56:55.440 quality starts. Maybe a tiny bit of offense. But at 0:56:55.440 --> 0:56:57.000 the end of the day, it's probably right, you know. 0:56:57.080 --> 0:56:59.360 I mean, technically I got an A in Canada, but 0:56:59.520 --> 0:57:01.560 I think this is like a bee. I think this 0:57:01.719 --> 0:57:03.359 is like a B type of team. There's a couple 0:57:03.480 --> 0:57:07.200 things like Glaberg Kybert. I don't know. Edwards will have 0:57:07.280 --> 0:57:10.120 to see. I just I think it's a tad bit better, 0:57:10.160 --> 0:57:13.680 but I understand it on my insights. By the way, categorically, 0:57:14.360 --> 0:57:18.480 I was top four in five categories, which is wild. 0:57:18.600 --> 0:57:21.800 I was top four and four pitching categories strikeouts, eer 0:57:21.840 --> 0:57:25.120 a whip and quality starts, and top four in obp 0:57:25.600 --> 0:57:28.560 yet I still was fifth in here it thought I 0:57:28.640 --> 0:57:31.360 reached on Gavin Williams and Christian Campbell, which is incorrect 0:57:31.520 --> 0:57:33.480 one hundred percent, and it did give me a what 0:57:33.520 --> 0:57:37.880 if I drafted Gunner over Corbyn Carroll expert opinions. Luke 0:57:38.320 --> 0:57:41.280 Glockner from Mister cheat Sheet loved my team the most. 0:57:41.520 --> 0:57:45.680 Mike McGregor, Daltondale, Don Scott White, and little Old Chris 0:57:45.680 --> 0:57:49.000 Welsh loved this team. keV from Rasball did not like it. 0:57:49.040 --> 0:57:52.240 Also from here, Brandon Myers always hates me, Pere Kmu 0:57:52.640 --> 0:57:55.760 just permartally hates me. Brad Kamara and Kelly Kirby did 0:57:55.760 --> 0:57:56.840 not like myraft. 0:57:57.200 --> 0:58:01.040 Joepy's a pea. I actually liked my draft. I just realized, Ah, that's. 0:58:00.920 --> 0:58:03.920 Why you got an a. People have been cracking the 0:58:03.960 --> 0:58:05.760 code lately. I've been getting a lot of tweets about 0:58:05.800 --> 0:58:07.880 that too, where it's like, hey, look I actually got 0:58:07.880 --> 0:58:10.600 a good grade from you, So now I'm ready. I'm tough. 0:58:10.640 --> 0:58:12.240 I'm not just gonna cand it out to you. This 0:58:12.320 --> 0:58:14.720 is in Canada. I'm from Brooklyn. Okay, you know how 0:58:14.720 --> 0:58:16.320 hard it is to get a good grade in Brooklyn. 0:58:16.800 --> 0:58:18.800 You ever hear us talk? All right, let's get to 0:58:19.600 --> 0:58:22.720 my team. Tell me if pocket aces worked or did 0:58:22.720 --> 0:58:26.120 not work for this roster. Ivan Herrera, Catcher, Pete Alonso, 0:58:26.200 --> 0:58:29.560 Marcus Simeon, Corey Seger, Matt Chapman, Matt Shaw, Jackson, Holiday, 0:58:29.600 --> 0:58:34.120 Lawrence Butler, Santandeo, Riley Green, Jeorgson, Profarrhyese Hoskins. Okay, it's 0:58:34.160 --> 0:58:38.000 pretty decent offense. I think Pitchers, Skiing, Scooble, Woo, ro 0:58:38.160 --> 0:58:42.760 Don Pepio Woodruff, Severino, then Munno's Fairbanks and Benches, Bladet, Cole, 0:58:42.880 --> 0:58:46.480 Keith and David Peterson. Welsh did the pocket Aces work 0:58:46.520 --> 0:58:47.640 for you on this roster. 0:58:49.800 --> 0:58:52.160 There's some stuff I don't love, Like on the Office, 0:58:52.240 --> 0:58:53.720 you took a lot of upside though you know, I'm 0:58:53.760 --> 0:58:58.120 gonna like pair that back like Ivan Herrera's my starter. 0:58:58.800 --> 0:59:01.000 You have two rookies on the corner and the middle, 0:59:01.040 --> 0:59:03.240 which is a little bit risk, and then you've got 0:59:03.320 --> 0:59:05.320 Reese Hoskins at you till but the rest is like 0:59:05.400 --> 0:59:08.320 a really core offense. You were able to I think 0:59:08.600 --> 0:59:10.960 put across the board. I'm not sure if like you've 0:59:11.000 --> 0:59:15.120 got elite power, but then you got Santander and Alonzo Alonzo, Yeah, no, 0:59:15.160 --> 0:59:18.760 I understand that, and and you kind of played at 0:59:18.760 --> 0:59:21.360 how you need to play it with pocket Ace's you 0:59:21.480 --> 0:59:24.160 waited a bit, but waiting got you Brian Wu and 0:59:24.320 --> 0:59:27.680 Radon and Peppio. I might have wanted like one more 0:59:27.920 --> 0:59:29.360 solid I did that there, but. 0:59:29.440 --> 0:59:31.680 I think there were two runs that killed me there 0:59:32.120 --> 0:59:34.240 in the bag where I just ever buy a que 0:59:34.240 --> 0:59:37.920 got obliterated by you by Clegg. It was just the worst, like. 0:59:37.960 --> 0:59:40.000 If you had gotten al Contra And yeah. 0:59:39.920 --> 0:59:44.520 You know, I think faith Clegg pocket Ace is at twelve. 0:59:45.040 --> 0:59:46.280 What do you think of this build? And you can 0:59:46.320 --> 0:59:47.840 be honest here you won't hurt my feelings. 0:59:48.760 --> 0:59:50.480 I mean, think it works, and if there's a format 0:59:50.560 --> 0:59:52.120 to do it, it's probably a head to head format 0:59:52.200 --> 0:59:55.280 for sure, just to kind of secure pitching. But yeah, 0:59:55.280 --> 0:59:57.080 I think that just with the pitching pool and how 0:59:57.120 --> 0:59:59.800 ADP is kind of shaped up this year, yeah, I 1:00:00.040 --> 1:00:02.720 probably wouldn't go that route. I think the early bats 1:00:02.760 --> 1:00:05.040 are kind of where I want to attack, and then 1:00:05.440 --> 1:00:07.600 I think getting one as early and then you can 1:00:07.720 --> 1:00:10.440 kind of build out from there with some solid arms. 1:00:10.480 --> 1:00:12.960 It's just it's interesting the way the board's fallen this year, 1:00:13.040 --> 1:00:15.360 in my opinion, the way ADP's shaken out, and there's 1:00:15.480 --> 1:00:18.320 just so many good pitching values up and down the board, 1:00:18.360 --> 1:00:19.760 at least at least in my opinion. 1:00:19.920 --> 1:00:22.880 Oh it's my opinion too. I just saw it and 1:00:22.960 --> 1:00:25.200 I said, you know what, it's the last show. Let's 1:00:25.240 --> 1:00:29.280 give everybody you know some different strategies here to go 1:00:29.320 --> 1:00:31.320 into their final drafts. But what do you think?
