1
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:08,559
Speaker 1: What's going on? Everybody. Welcome into Fantasy pros. This is

2
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: leading off live the Fantasy Baseball Podcast. I'm your host,

3
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: Joe Rico, joined again today by Casey Bubba, and yes,

4
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: it is our final time together for the twenty twenty

5
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: five Fantasy Baseball season. Bubba, it's been great getting to

6
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 1: talk with you here a couple times a weekend to

7
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: talk some baseball and just catch up. It's been really

8
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: good man. Thank you so much for joining me again today.

9
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 1: How you doing.

10
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 2: I'm doing well, and honestly, I hope we get to

11
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: do it again next year. Hopefully we get to do

12
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 2: more often. You know, just tell those guys to stick

13
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 2: with football. We got this covered. Not that big a deal,

14
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 2: but always good chat with you. We need to do

15
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 2: it more often. Even either hear our show somewhere. We

16
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:43,840
Speaker 2: need to make it happen.

17
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: This is the problem. I used to do a show

18
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 1: every single day. I used to bring on a lot

19
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: more guests, I used to have a lot more conversations

20
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 1: throughout the industry. I don't do that show anymore, but

21
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: I'm very happy to be able to talk with you here. Nonetheless, Bubba,

22
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: and we're gonna be in person in a couple of months,

23
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: so that should be fun as well down in the desert.

24
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: But today, guys, fill up the chat with your questions.

25
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 1: This will be our final show of the year, and

26
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 1: I want to talk about some potential streamers the rest

27
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 1: of the way, some hot bats that are being picked up.

28
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: We're going to go through a couple of the headlines

29
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: from yesterday and a couple of injuries as well. But

30
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,400
Speaker 1: let me know if you have any questions, we will

31
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 1: be happy to answer them. What I wanted to start

32
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: off with here, but but just talk about a couple

33
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 1: of hot guys over the last few days, see if

34
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: you think they're viable pickups here for the final week

35
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: of the season. Estak Parades is the first one that

36
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: comes to mind. We talked about him, I think a

37
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,479
Speaker 1: little bit last week. He's hit one home run. Since

38
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: he's returned, he's been hitting third in the lineup for

39
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: the Astros. If you need a little bit of a

40
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,039
Speaker 1: boost right now, is he somebody that you think is

41
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: worth picking up, especially because Houston right now is in Sacramento.

42
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want the Sacramento boost, for sure, I

43
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 2: would jump on that With Estoc I think he's still

44
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 2: just trying to get like, you know, kind of knocked

45
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 2: the rest off from the long layoff. He does get

46
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 2: to go to Anaheim this weekend and has a phenomenal

47
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 2: schedule against Hendrix, Caden, Dana and Aldegary potentially, and the

48
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 2: Astros are fighting for that postseason life like right now.

49
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 2: They're out the playoffs as we speak, which is crazy

50
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 2: to think about because the Tigers have the sixth that

51
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 2: they have the wild card, while the Guardians now have

52
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 2: the Al Central. So the Astros are going to be

53
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 2: playing everybody they can, I think, till the end, which

54
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 2: gives Esoch and a really good schedule, a nice streaming viability.

55
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,399
Speaker 1: Man, when we were talking a couple of weeks ago,

56
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,119
Speaker 1: it was the last show on twitch, and somebody said,

57
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: who do you think is going to come out of

58
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 1: the American League And I said, no, the Astros, and

59
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,119
Speaker 1: I completely jinxed them. They've gone completely cold since then,

60
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: and it's been a really interesting couple weeks actually, Baba,

61
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,839
Speaker 1: Like I thought every playoff spot was pretty secured as

62
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: of maybe September twelfth or thirteenth or something like that,

63
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: and then you had Cincinnati come back, you had Seattle

64
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: do their thing, Cleveland doing their thing. It's been a

65
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: lot more interesting than I really expect that to be

66
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: down the stretch here.

67
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, to your point, like a month ago, like you said, basically,

68
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,080
Speaker 2: it seemed like everything was done, We're bored. The stinks.

69
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 2: Like we saw people posting on X that like everyone

70
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 2: should get in, like all these different scenarios for the postseason.

71
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 2: And now do you point like heading into the final

72
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 2: week of the year that almost every al division least

73
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,679
Speaker 2: had something cooking, and like last night we broke down

74
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,239
Speaker 2: the postseason, I'm blowing the bloom. And there's legit about

75
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 2: three or four teams in the National and American leagues

76
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 2: that could you know, be in or out by the

77
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 2: end of the week. So it's really good to see

78
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 2: at least we have something fun to look forward to

79
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 2: this week.

80
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I've seen it in the American League

81
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: with my Blue Jays, who looked like they had the

82
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: East kind of wrapped up, and now they've started struggling.

83
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: The Yankees are picking back up, the Red Sox are

84
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 1: still in it. There's a lot of excitement and I

85
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: really didn't think a few weeks ago there was going

86
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: to be anything. Everybody was like ninety percent plus in

87
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: terms of their playoff odds. But things have really really

88
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: shifted in the final couple weeks, which is kind of

89
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: what you want to see. You want there to be

90
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: excitement heading into the last week or so of the season.

91
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: Another guy who has been kind of hot. Now it'll

92
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: depend on the depth of your league whether or not

93
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: he is around, but Spencer Steer has been cooking with

94
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: gas recently. They are at home for the next couple

95
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: of days. Now they do have to face Paul Skins today,

96
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 1: Brax and Ashcraft tomorrow, and then he goes on the

97
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: road and gets Jay of Miserowski and Freddie Peralta this weekend.

98
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: So tough matchups a little bit. But any interest in

99
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: adding Spencer Steeer, Bob, But we're starting him potentially. Let's

100
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: say it's a league where he is rostered, but you're

101
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: debating putting him in the lineup. Is he worth it

102
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: for you here in these last few days.

103
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 2: I take my chances at home with tough like you said,

104
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: Schemes and Ashcraft. Now, the Milwaukee series is interesting because

105
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 2: they have the bye locked up, so how many innings

106
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 2: do they give Priester Miserowski Peralta to get ready for

107
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 2: the postseason. That's the big question. I think he runs

108
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 2: Steer out there for the next two days and then

109
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 2: maybe find a replacement for the weekend if possible.

110
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's fine. Yeah, I think that does

111
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 1: make sense. He has I've got him in a couple

112
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: of leagues, and I think it was this week or

113
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: last week where he was like a day to day

114
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: designation heading into the week and you threw him into

115
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: the lineup. If you benched him, you missed out on

116
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: a lot of good production. But it's been a bit

117
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,119
Speaker 1: of an up and down year for Spencer Steer for sure.

118
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: We mentioned him last week. I wanted to bring him

119
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: up again. Austin Martin, you still think he is a

120
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: viable pickup if anybody is looking for a little bit

121
00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: of helping batting average, maybe add a couple of steel

122
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 1: down the stretch.

123
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 2: Yep. We'll be talking to Austin Martin later in the

124
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 2: show as well. So I like him quite a bit.

125
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 2: The Texas matchups don't rate out right with the Gram

126
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 2: and Malli, but their bullpen's been kind of sketch. But

127
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 2: the Bueller Nola Sworez over the weekend especially at Philadelphia.

128
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: Doesn't want to go full boar with those pitchers. Votes

129
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 2: very well for Austin Martin, hitting second, still getting on

130
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 2: base a ton, and still another bag I believe Tuesday night.

131
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 2: So he's racking up the counting stats for you. He

132
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 2: might not have a ton of power, but he's helping

133
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 2: everywhere else, so I like him quite a bit.

134
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 1: Still, what do you think about har Roberto Hernandez Over

135
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks, he has three home runs,

136
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: He's heading three thirty three. He's out of a steel

137
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: in there any interest in adding him here with a

138
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: couple games against Philly and then heading to the Mets.

139
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 2: I'm cool with it because he gets three left he's

140
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 2: in the last five games, which should lock him into

141
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 2: the lineup. He still plays verus right. He's don't get

142
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 2: me wrong, but he tends to like maybe split those

143
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 2: right handed starts because for now, quote unquote, the Marlins

144
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 2: are healthy. Dan Myers did leave on Tuesday, so I'll

145
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,359
Speaker 2: have to see how that plays out. But Hernandez a

146
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 2: lot of pop okay badian average depends on what your

147
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 2: team needs, but it could be a nice little finish

148
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 2: to the season for him with the especially the Mets matchups,

149
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 2: because the Mets will be going for it, but they

150
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,679
Speaker 2: haven't struggling in a lot, especially that bullpen.

151
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,679
Speaker 1: The Mets pitching has completely gone away in the second

152
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:15,919
Speaker 1: half of the year. I was talking about it on

153
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: Monday with Chris Towers. It was a lot of fun.

154
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: Chris Towers joined me if you guys have missed that one,

155
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: but just talking about how the Mets at different times

156
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: of the year have had different things cooking. They're pitching

157
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: early on with Holmes, with Peterson, with Tyler McGill, who

158
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: we have a not great update on. Later they were cooking,

159
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: and then the bats, like over I think it was

160
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: July and August were like the hottest hitting team in baseball,

161
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: but at the same time nothing was ever working all together.

162
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: It'll be really really dark stuff if they missed the

163
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: playoffs after what happened last year. Adding Soto, but that

164
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: one is probably the most interesting race for me. Cincinnati

165
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: and New York and Arizona there in the NL wild

166
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,159
Speaker 1: Card has been a lot of fun to follow. One

167
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 1: last name here to bring up. It's Bo Naylor, somebody

168
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: who has fall short of expectations. It seems like forever

169
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 1: I've always loved the guy, being a Canadian homer myself.

170
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: But bow Naylor over the last two weeks, he's hitting

171
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: three seventy five, three home runs, fourteen ribis in the

172
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: last two weeks, and the Guardians are really cooking with gas.

173
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: He's playing more than he had been. I'm kind of

174
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 1: interested in bow Naylor. I guess the question is who

175
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 1: your current catcher is, But you think he's a viable

176
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: pick up here for the final few days.

177
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 2: Most definitely, the Guardians are going for it, so they're

178
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 2: starting their guys at as they should be, so he

179
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 2: should play three or four of their last five games.

180
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 2: Pretty darn good matchups against Detroit and Texas. I absolutely

181
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 2: love this Naylor call. I talked about him on a

182
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 2: couple of recent FAB shows. It's like, where's this guy

183
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 2: been when I was pumping him up every preseason for

184
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 2: the last two years. This is what we're seeing in September.

185
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 2: Is I think the skill set and then I sit

186
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 2: back and I go, wait a minute. He is only

187
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 2: twenty five years old, so like there still might be

188
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 2: a level where he becomes like a catcher two next

189
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 2: year or something. So your original point, yes, go ahead

190
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 2: and add him. There are a lot of catching options

191
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 2: this week you could add, but definitely a strong one

192
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 2: this week.

193
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: I really like him, and I know I'm biased. I've

194
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: always liked his brother, but like there are certain things

195
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: that are kind of encouraging in the data. Still fourteen

196
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: home runs, he gets on base at a decent clip,

197
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: considering he hits under two hundred with his eleven percent

198
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 1: walk rate. Just hasn't really been able to put it

199
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: all together offensively, pretty solid on the defensive side of

200
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 1: the ball. But I'm really hoping next year is the

201
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: year where Bo Naylor can start to resemble his brother

202
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: a little bit more. Guys, I want to remind you

203

00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,319
Speaker 1: no question, but just want to say thank you for

213
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 1: all your advice and responses all year. I've got a

214
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 1: sixteen point lead in my six by six home road

215
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 1: a leagues, I appreciate y'all. Sixteen points feels pretty good

216
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 1: right now. You know it's not over till the fat

217
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: Lady starts singing, but that feels pretty good for you. Fenway,

218
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: So congrats over there, David sitting in my championship. Thanks guys,

219
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: love the podcast, and Jpack as well in my championship.

220
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: Can't say thank you enough to Joe and Bubba and

221
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 1: also Joey p and Welsh whatever with those guys. I

222
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 1: appreciate it. I really do appreciate it. We're just messing around.

223
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: Joe and Welsher are our guys here, so we're just

224
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: having a little bit of fun. What about this grim guy?

225
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: Do we believe in him? I think you're probably talking

226
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 1: about Krim for the Rockies, Blaine Krim. I believe we

227
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 1: may mentioned him last weekend and we said that he

228
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 1: was maybe a decent pickup for the weekend slate. He

229
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 1: did hit a home run, drove in a couple runs.

230
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 1: The problem here is that there are a lot of

231
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: holes in his game, a ton of swing and miss.

232
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 1: They're in Seattle right now, and then they head to

233
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 1: San Francisco. It's not really the two ballparks you want

234
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 1: to be headed into, especially because you see Colorado. He's

235
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 1: a Rockies bat, but he's not going to benefit from

236
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 1: any core's goodness the rest of the way. So I

237
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,559
Speaker 1: think I don't want to speak for you, Bubba, but

238
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: Krim is probably somebody we can leave alone for the

239
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: rest of the year.

240
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, one might say it is grim the outlook for

241
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 2: the rest of his season, so yes, uh yeah, I

242
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,319
Speaker 2: would move on from that, like maybe he runs into

243
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 2: a homer, but there's a lot of potential downfall with

244
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 2: what he's got coming up.

245
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, j Pack, you're good. You're good. Sometimes we don't

246
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 1: even know our own names around these parts, so you

247
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: are totally good for not recognizing Blaine Krim not exactly

248
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: a household name, So you are you are definitely forgiven there,

249
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: my friend. I do want to talk about it and

250
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: keep keep throwing your questions in there. Guys, We'll keep

251
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: coming back to them throughout the show. Here, I want

252
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 1: to talk about a couple of potential pitching streamers. Now

253
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,559
Speaker 1: this time of year, everything is chaos, everything is nuts.

254
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: You know, you never really know who's starting on a

255
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 1: given day. But I just put a couple of guys

256
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: in the show sheet here that I think are pretty

257
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: viable ads slash streams for the next couple of days,

258
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 1: today Wednesday. You know this is more for the live crowd.

259
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,959
Speaker 1: If you're listening back, I apologize, but we'll start with Wednesday.

260
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 1: Stephen Colech against the Angels, Ryan Weathers against Philly, Jonah

261
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 1: Toong against the Cubs, and Taj Bradley against the Rangers.

262
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: For me, Coleck and Tong are probably my favorites here.

263
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: Coolak has been cooking and Jonah Tong had that one

264
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: really rough start but did bounce back pretty well. What

265
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: are your thoughts on this group of streamers are potential

266
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: streamers we have for today? Bubba?

267
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 2: I agree Kolak. It's really impressive what he has put

268
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 2: together since rejoining the Royals rotation. He's made four starts,

269
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 2: all quality starts to and runs are less than all

270
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 2: of them. Not a big strikeout guy, but did punch

271
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 2: out eight mariners over seven or a third in his

272
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,959
Speaker 2: last start, and he gets to take on a wonderful,

273
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 2: wonderful Halo's team that strikes out thirty two zero point

274
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 2: two percent of the time vers Riety's over the past

275
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 2: month thirty two point two percent of the time, a

276
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 2: third of they're at bats vers right handed pitchers. That

277
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 2: is horrific.

278
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 1: Uh.

279
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 2: So I love Kolik and this one, so'll prepare for

280
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,559
Speaker 2: the downfall. I apologize now and then the rest of them.

281
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 2: It's tough, Like I really want to go with Ryan Weathers.

282
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 2: The Phillies have been missing some players like leave it

283
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 2: like Harper's battle and injuries. Don't know how deep Weathers

284
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 2: is going to go when that game, So I'm gonna

285
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 2: go with Weathers. I don't disagree with your tom to take,

286
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 2: but Colek is the clear one in this group.

287
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, Colek has been phenomenal, and you're riding the hot

288
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 1: hand there for me with Tong. And you know, there's

289
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: been a couple of pitchers like this who have had

290
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: kind of one real stinker that blows up their line

291
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 1: Kaye Cavali, Bubba Chandler Tong as well. I think I'm

292
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: forgetting one other young guy. And you look at the

293
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: overall stats and you're like Okay Jonah Tong for the year,

294
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: it's a five ninety four and a one forty four whip,

295
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: but all of that damage really just came in that

296
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: one horrific start, so you know at that age you

297
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 1: are going to have some ups and downs. The fact

298
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: that he's facing the Cubs does give me a little

299
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 1: bit of encouragement. It definitely wouldn't have earlier in the year,

300
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 1: but the Cubs are kind of whatever at this point

301
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 1: that they're not really a team that scares me off.

302
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 1: So I think there are a couple of viable options

303
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: for today looking ahead to tomorrow, Michael Lorenzen again targeting

304
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 1: those Angels because they're not good, as Bubba alluded to,

305
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: Taiwan Walker against Miami, Braxton Ashcraft against Cincinnati, and Tyler

306
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: Maley coming off a pretty decent return, he gets Minnesota.

307
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 1: Anybody in this group interesting you for streaming purposes, Bubba.

308
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,079
Speaker 2: Love the Lorenzen call, like you said, for the same

309
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 2: things we just talked about. And Mallie's very interesting four

310
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 2: and two thirds nowhere in six k's against the Marlins

311
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 2: in his return from the IL now gets a pretty

312
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 2: friendly matchup versus Minnesota. So I'm looking at Lorenzen and

313
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 2: Malli right now. The thing with Miami, it's very interesting.

314
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 2: They're not striking out a lot, so Walker's gonna to

315
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: deal with a lot of balls and play in that

316
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 2: ball park. So I'm going with Lorenzen and Mally in

317
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 2: that crew.

318
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, Tylan Walker is you know this time of year.

319
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 1: If you stream him in you know, May or June,

320
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: and there's a decent matchup. Okay, if it hurts you,

321
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: it hurts you. If you stream him right now and

322
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: he kills you and you lose your title and lose

323
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: a bunch of money because of Taiwan Walker, You're gonna

324
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,199
Speaker 1: hate yourself. I'm telling you right now, You're gonna hate

325
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 1: yourself if that is the case. So yeah, play it,

326
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 1: play a little bit safe. But there's a couple options

327
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 1: for you. I think Lorenz's probably my favorite. Ashcraft came

328
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: in as a follower to Baba Chandler, but he's getting

329
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: the actual start here. So let's just hope for five

330
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: innings against the fairly poor Cincinnati team and Bali as well.

331
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 1: I think there are actually some pretty decent options. Tomorrow

332
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 1: Friday is where it could potentially get a little bit thin. Now,

333
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: we got Kastanza, Jason Alexander again targeting the Angels. He's

334
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 1: coming off of a true stinker on Sunday Brandon Sproute

335
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,679
Speaker 1: against Miami. He's also coming off of not a great one.

336
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: And then Kate Cavali, who I mentioned earlier, has been

337
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: really good outside of just one kind of poor start.

338
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on this group, Bubba.

339
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 2: It's a really good group. Like I know, I'm insane

340
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 2: for trying to go back to Alexander, but I'm gonna

341
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 2: keep picking on the matchups at this point of the year,

342
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 2: so that seems pretty nice to me. And then I

343
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 2: don't mind the sprot call or the Kavali call. I

344
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 2: think they're both. The Cavali great matchup versus Weisex sprote

345
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 2: versus Miami Sprots looks pretty good. If I had to

346
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 2: pick just one, I'm probably going Cavali in this group,

347
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 2: but I like all three.

348
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 1: If you need it, I do too. I think Kavali

349
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: is probably my favorite, But I'm with you with Costanza.

350
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: I wrote him up in an article on Sunday, even

351
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 1: after getting blown up. You wrote him up as a streamer,

352
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 1: even in that he had been really good. I don't

353
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: want to hold one bad start against a really hot

354
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 1: team against him. I think that he is still pretty viable.

355
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: Let's look ahead to the weekend and this is where

356
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: it gets dicey.

357
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 2: Guys.

358
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: Just remember before you put anybody in your lineup. We're

359
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 1: talking specifically for daily league players here. Weekly lineups are

360
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: said for the year. Just be one hundred percent sure.

361
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: Things are moving around constantly. I thought Jacob Bigrahm was

362
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 1: a two star pitcher this week, and then it was

363
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: reported starting Thursday, and then it's reported he's going Wednesday.

364
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 1: So you just never really know, so just be one

365
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: hundred percent sure. But with that being said, Saturday, Kyle

366
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: Harrison against the Tigers, Javier Assad against Saint Louis, Joey

367
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: Cantillo against Texas. Buy but what are your thoughts on

368
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: this group?

369
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 2: I love Canti you. I've always been a Cantello guy.

370
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 2: He looks real sharp of late. You'd imagine the Guardians

371
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 2: have to go for it. Texas is thrown in the

372
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 2: towel like Langford's out. They already said, see your and

373
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 2: Simon aren't coming back. That team's a shell of itself.

374
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 2: I love cantill you in this matchup, Harrison maybe, but

375
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 2: never assad It is a facade, as my co host

376
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 2: would say, So give me Joey Cantillo. I love that

377
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 2: one against Texas on Saturday.

378
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you know. I put him on the

379
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 1: sheet just because of the matchup for a side, and

380
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: I wanted to discuss it. But the numbers are pretty rough.

381
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: I mean, if you look back at the past couple

382
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: of seasons, he's been very serviceable, but the strikeouts are

383
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 1: just gone, yep. And they weren't in a place where

384
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: you could really afford to lose seven points. He was

385
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 1: a twenty percent, eighteen percent, nineteen percent down to twelve percent.

386
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: So as much as I think that there is a

387
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 1: chance things go well, this is probably more of a

388
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: desperation play. You just need the volume on the weekend

389
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: and you got no other options. I think that's that's

390
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: probably where he sits. Sunday. Here's a couple of final

391
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: options for the weekend. Jamison Tayonne against Saint Louis, Shane

392
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: Smith against the Nationals, and Justin Verlander coming off a

393
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: pretty rough one himself, but he gets Colorado. Bobba, what

394
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: do you think.

395
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 2: If Verlander makes the start? I want that one big time.

396
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 2: It was a bad start on Monday. He's been so

397
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 2: good of late, and the road Rockies are almost as

398
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 2: bad as the Angels right now, So I'm going Verlander

399
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 2: in that one. All three aren't bad, to be honest,

400
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 2: but give me Justin Verlander.

401
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I'll go Verlander as well. You know,

402
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: this has been an interesting few weeks to say the least,

403
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: and once again, my apologies to the guy I told

404
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 1: not to pick him up a while back, although I

405
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,959
Speaker 1: guess maybe it saved you this week. But overall, Justin

406
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 1: Verlander has been a lot better, a lot better. And

407
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: what do you think? I asked Towers about this and

408
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: he thought he's not too interested for next year. But

409
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:19,919
Speaker 1: with Verlander is saying that he's going to stick around

410
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: the fact that he's ended pretty well here, will you

411
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 1: have any interest in drafts for next season, like a

412
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: late round or potentially like your last pick kind of thing.

413
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 2: If he's free like he was this year, preferably in

414
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 2: a fifteen the twelve team. He's strictly a streamed for me,

415
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 2: because he's gonna have a lot if you don't want

416
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 2: him out there moments, but fifteen's he's gonna have a

417
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 2: lot of legs. And I actually had him. I drafted

418
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 2: him a few fifteens to start the year. I dropped

419
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:46,160
Speaker 2: him when things are horrific, but I could see where

420
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 2: this has a path to success for a fifteen team week.

421
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: Yes, even at his age, it's kind of crazy. I

422
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: think he's going to be forty three or he's already

423
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: forty three. It's wild to see what he's been able

424
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: to do here. Him and Kershaw just having these really

425
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: nice runs at this stage of their career has been

426
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 1: kind of nice to see. But guys, I want to

Speaker 1: All Right, what else we got going on in the

455
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 1: chat here? Joe g Friend of the show coming in

456
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:15,120
Speaker 1: Lorenzen over Powich tomorrow. Yes, yes, absolutely, I've just never

457
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: been impressed really by Kate Povich to this point, and

458
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 1: there's been a couple of decent starts, but overall he's

459
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 1: been very disappointing.

460
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 2: Bubba, I'm a Povich fan. Is just annoying because he

461
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,199
Speaker 2: gets you tons of strikeouts, but he will blow your

462
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 2: ratios up like half the time. So there's really no

463
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 2: consistency in that regard. I could I see the path

464
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 2: where he could be good someday. He just never finds it.

465
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 2: So that's where the frustration is. But you know, in

466
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 2: a head to head league, you proably don't want to

467
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 2: use them if you're in like a roto and you're like, hey,

468
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 2: I need strikeouts right now. I don't care about my ratios.

469
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 2: I like Povich, but in this question, give me a

470
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 2: Lorenzen all day.

471
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I'm with you there. Playoff predictions, well,

472
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 1: my last playoff prediction did not go terribly well. I

473
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: cursed the Houston Astros. At this point, everything is completely

474
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 1: up in the air for the wildcard spots those ones.

475
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 1: I have no real predictions about the wildcard. Anything could

476
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 1: happen over the next few days. I think Seattle and

477
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 1: Milwaukee at this point is who I would probably pick

478
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: to meet up in the World Series. They're both really

479
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 1: really deep, strong teams. Seattle's World Series chances on Fangrafts

480
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: are over twenty percent. They're by far the highest team.

481
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: I think I'm going that way and i think I'm

482
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 1: going to Brewers in the n ALBABA.

483
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Seattle and Milwaukee's been my pick for a couple

484
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 2: of weeks. Now I'm gonna stick with that. The only if.

485
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 2: If it's not Milwaukee, I think it's Philadelphia because they're

486
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 2: starting notations filthy like that they could do some damage.

487
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 2: Milwaukee's taking a hit in that rotation, looking losing Woodriff,

488
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 2: which concerns me, But I'm gonna stick with it. Jayson

489
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 2: Milwaukee for now. More importantly, I would just frustrate all

490
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 2: the TV people, So I'm pretty happy about that.

491
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, they do not want those small market teams. I

492
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 1: know they don't want Toronto anywhere near that they have.

493
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,120
Speaker 1: I mean, Toronto has good markets, but they never give

494
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: Toronto any Sunday Night Baseball or any primetime stuff. I

495
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,359
Speaker 1: think that the league might panic a little bit if

496
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: they had to go north of the border for World's coverage.

497
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 1: They haven't had to do that in quite a while.

498
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 2: It's been a while.

499
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 1: It's been a while. I've never actually seen it myself.

500
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: Tyler Wells today, that is, I believe, Tampa Bay. I

501
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 1: think I'm going for it.

502
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, keep playing Tyler Wells. He's been awesome. There's no

503
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 2: reason not too.

504
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm there with you. Thanks has always, fella, has

505
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: been a great season. Appreciate you, go Sport seeing you

506
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: in the chat a bunch. At what point in the

507
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: draft you take Chase Burns next year? So in a

508
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,439
Speaker 1: very early draft that took place six weeks ago at

509
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: this point, Bubba, something like that, Chase Burns went in

510
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 1: the eighth round. Now, it hasn't been the greatest few

511
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 1: weeks for Chase Burns overall, going to the bullpen and whatnot,

512
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 1: and his season line as a whole. He's got a

513
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 1: five ERA, he's got a one forty whip, but the

514
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 1: upside there with the strikeouts, with the I think pretty

515
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 1: solid command already. He could be an ACE as soon

516
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: as next season. Where you're having to draft him is

517
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: probably I would say a borderline top one hundred pick,

518
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 1: somewhere in the ninety to one ten range in most rooms, Bubba,

519
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:57,119
Speaker 1: that's not about right.

520
00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fair. That's fair, eighth round and of fifteen.

521
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 2: So people love the upside to your play. He's kind

522
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 2: of like to do Hunter Green for them, Like where

523
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 2: do you speculate, you know around the Hunter pick Mark

524
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 2: giver take seems seems accurate for now.

525
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think things will We'll move around, and he's

526
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 1: definitely we talked about helium guys in spring training. Chase

527
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: Burns is a prime example of a dude who he

528
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: throws a few hundred and one mile an hour pitches

529
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 1: in March and then he strikes out nine dudes in

530
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 1: a spring training game. That's the type of price that

531
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 1: will just skyrocket. So I think he's the type of

532
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 1: guy you get in early drafts if you really want

533
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 1: to get some shares of Chase Burns. What do you

534
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 1: think about Kim and Atlanta been doing well? Will he

535
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 1: keep it up? I think he'll keep it up probably

536
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: the rest of the way this season. I don't know

537
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: out next year yet. I think I'll probably be interested

538
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: depending on the price. But Kim, We've talked about him

539
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 1: a bunch on this show. Bubba's talked about him a ton.

540
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 1: He's definitely worth picking up if you're still seeing him

541
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:48,199
Speaker 1: out there.

542
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, we talked about him actually last night, but went

543
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 2: to bloom for something that because he's widely available in

544
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 2: fab recently and he's got a ten game hitting streak

545
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,439
Speaker 2: going right now, couple home runs. He's not running much

546
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,719
Speaker 2: this year, but maybe that's injury. Base Dude's always got

547
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 2: a good hit, tool, of decent power, tons of speed.

548
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 2: When he's running, he's going to be in the middle

549
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 2: of that Brazer order. I love him for the rest

550
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,160
Speaker 2: of this season. And the question we had lot yesterday

551
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 2: or maybe he was on bench with Bubble with Ben,

552
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 2: was where does he go in that like pocket of

553
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 2: short stops he feels because he projects like with him

554
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 2: Andez and stop, But to me, he's better than them.

555
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 2: So it's a very interesting that's a whole another twenty

556
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 2: twenty six discussion. But to their question, sorry, off the rails,

557
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 2: It's what I'm good at. Yes, keep playing him the

558
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 2: rest of the season.

559
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 1: I can promise you he's better than him. Andez Jimenez

560
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 1: is an atrocious hitter. He's a great defender, no question great,

561
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: one of the best defensive second basement, maybe the best

562
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: defensive second basement. He could not hit a whiffle ball

563
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 1: with a canoe paddle. The guy is awful at the plate.

564
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 1: I think we're okay for chat right now, so let's

565
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: keep it going here on the outline and talk about

566
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 1: a quick quick mention and some bagpipes in the chat

567
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 1: For Alec Manoa. I was very surprised by this move.

568
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,199
Speaker 1: The Blue Jays release essentially released Alec Manoa yesterday. They

569
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,640
Speaker 1: designated him for assignment. Somebody will probably take a shot

570
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,879
Speaker 1: on him. I would imagine at this point he already

571
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 1: has a cy Young finish in his career. He finished

572
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: third and cy Young voting in twenty twenty two, dealt

573
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: with a ton of injuries, went under the knife. He

574
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,639
Speaker 1: hasn't had the command since he's come back. This I

575
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 1: tweeted it yesterday, but it feels fairly shortsighted for them

576
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: to have done this, giving up on Alec Manoa at

577
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: age twenty seven. But any initial thoughts that you had

578
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 1: seen this, was it a surprising move to you? Or

579
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 1: am I perhaps being a little biased here? No?

580
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,199
Speaker 2: I was surprised because he's still so young, he's had

581
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 2: the injuries. I thought his rehab was going okay, Like

582
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 2: we're seeing some good outings and whatnot, like maybe he's

583
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 2: never that ace again, But Hey, from a Giants guy

584
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 2: over here that has a horrible rotation, I'd take a

585
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 2: shot out hunt to be like our fourth in a

586
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 2: rotation all day long in that ballpark. So I think

587
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,160
Speaker 2: it's too early to give up on the guy unless

588
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 2: there's more injury information under the hood that we're not

589
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:56,640
Speaker 2: being told about.

590
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 1: There was something about Hey refused an assignment a couple

591
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: of years ago triple A that ruffled some feathers and

592
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 1: people weren't too happy about it. But the thing that

593
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: shocks me in this situation that the Blue Jays are

594
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,479
Speaker 1: not set up very well from a pitching standpoint going forward.

595
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 1: Chris Bassett thirty seven years old or about to be

596
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 1: thirty seven years old on the il about in Francis

597
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: was not what we were hoping. He was gonna be Barrios,

598
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 1: Ditto Kevin Gosman. He's gonna be thirty five, Max Scherzer's

599
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: forty one. Bieber could leave in free agent, Like this

600
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 1: is not a team that has a deep rotation, especially

601
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 1: looking at it to next year. I'm very surprised by this,

602
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,159
Speaker 1: Fenway saying Alec Manoa twenty twenty six Marlins redemption arc.

603
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: He'll go somewhere. I wouldn't be surprised if Antoppolis takes

604
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 1: a chance on him, if the Dodgers take a chance

605
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 1: on him, if really any team took a chance on

606
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 1: him and he ended up having a halfway decent career.

607
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: Is he ever gonna win a cy Young I very

608
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,440
Speaker 1: much doubt that, but he's shown that upside in his

609
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 1: first year in the big So it feels like the

610
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: Blue Jays give up a little bit early here on

611
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: mister Alec Manoa Joe asking about Walker Buehler tomorrow over

612
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: Lorenz and I can't do it. I personally can't do it.

613
00:25:58,560 --> 00:25:59,880
Speaker 1: I don't trust him. But what do you think.

614
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 2: I never Bueler. I'll take the Lorenzen matchup all day

615
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 2: long and twice on Sunday. I know I actually respect them.

616
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 2: Harlan's right now, that's the crazy thing. So I'm not

617
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 2: going with the locky Buehler thing. Not right now.

618
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: Well, I mean post surgery, post sticky stuff. I don't

619
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: know that he's ever going to get back to what

620
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 1: we saw before. Certainly I don't think we'll ever see

621
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: him at those previous levels. Maybe he can have again,

622
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: same thing with maybe Minoa. He can have a halfway

623
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,439
Speaker 1: decent career, maybe, but he's never hitting those previous peaks.

624
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,160
Speaker 1: Let's do a little three up and three down Michael Harris.

625
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: The second two home runs yesterday, following up a game

626
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 1: where he had three steals on Monday. This is maybe

627
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,920
Speaker 1: the most up and down player I can think of.

628
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,679
Speaker 1: There are times when he looks like prime Barry Bonds.

629
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,119
Speaker 1: There are primes where he can't hit the Mendo's aligned.

630
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: But but I don't really know what to make of him.

631
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 1: I think in drafts I'll probably just be out because

632
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 1: people will sell themselves on the hype in the upside

633
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 1: when in reality the performance hasn't been there in a

634
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 1: couple of years. But it's hard not to be interested

635
00:26:58,040 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: with what you see him doing down the stretch here.

636
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, he keeps bringing fantasy managers back into the mix.

637
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 2: I just stay away, but I can at least admit

638
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 2: that the skills are really good, and he shows him

639
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 2: from time to time. The price has to be right.

640
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 2: He's been going too high in drafts in recent years.

641
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 1: Now.

642
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 2: If he falls to the round of one hundred, one

643
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty, range. Now we can talk, but I

644
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 2: don't know the skills are there. It's just very, very frustrating.

645
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 1: To your point, one homer and one steal off of

646
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: a twenty twenty season. If somebody looked back in seven

647
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 1: years and said, oh, Michael Harris twenty twenty five, yeah,

648
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 1: he had a twenty twenty season, you would never know

649
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 1: how frustrating this guy was to roster. I'm thankfully a

650
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 1: lot of my shares were Gladiator teams, so I didn't

651
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:36,720
Speaker 1: really have to worry about it, and I've seen those

652
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 1: teams kind of tick up in the standings in the

653
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 1: second half. But my goodness, my goodness, it has been

654
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: a rough year for him. I'm glad he's picked it

655
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 1: up now, but I just don't really want anything to

656
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: do with him next year, unless to your point, if

657
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 1: he's outside of the top of one hundred hundred and fifty. Sure,

658
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 1: I just don't see a lot of people letting him

659
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: fall that far. Just with the upside and whatever. A

660
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 1: couple of pitchers here on the ups as well. Gavin Williams,

661
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: continuing his crazy run to earn runs, truck out twelve

662
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: Tigers yesterday and in the second half he has been

663
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 1: a monster. Tower said he didn't trust it on Monday.

664
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:09,720
Speaker 1: I don't really trust it. What do you think, Bubba.

665
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 2: I've always been a Gavin Williams fan. It's been as

666
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 2: inconsistency with his command. He'll have those nasty walk games,

667
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 2: but that has improved in the second half to your point,

668
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 2: and it just keeps going back to like these young pitchers.

669
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 2: There's guys making changes this, that and the other, and

670
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,360
Speaker 2: I don't know if you can trust like people can't

671
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 2: trust it. But it's been about a couple months at

672
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 2: least where we're seeing this good pitching. He's got to

673
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,479
Speaker 2: roll with it, and I'll probably be in again next year.

674
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,399
Speaker 2: I was very interested coming into this year because I

675
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 2: think there is a very solid skill set there just

676
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 2: hasn't fully tapped into it. But we might be seeing

677
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 2: part of it right now.

678
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: We might be. I hope we are. I just hope

679
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: that price doesn't skyrocket. I'm intrigued. I don't want to

680
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: pay a price that would be, you know, looking like

681
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: it would be if he had put on the second

682
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 1: half numbers the whole season. I hope that people temper

683
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: their expectations a little bit, just for my own team's

684
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 1: sake next year and the last one Cole Reagan's five

685
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 1: innings tour and runs and struck out ten. Cole Reagans,

686
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 1: I know the numbers on the.

687
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 2: Sturdy Who face Joe? Who did he face? Ah?

688
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 1: Bobo whate whine. You gotta do this to me, Bubba,

689
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 1: what You're not wrong? In a full circle, You're not wrong.

690
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 1: You're definitely not wrong. But I would counter that with

691
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 1: his strikeout rate for the year is thirty seven percent,

692
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: and you know it's coming fifty seven innings. But I

693
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: feel like Reagan's if he enters the year with a

694
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 1: clean bill of health, I am gonna be really interested

695
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 1: in him, and I feel like I'll take those early drafts.

696
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 1: You know, if there is any discount on him, the

697
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 1: surface numbers may keep people away, but we're looking at

698
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: a thirty percent strike up minus walk rate, a two

699
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 1: sixty nine FIP. Like the stuff is still good, the

700
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 1: fastball velo is still good. He he looks like Cole

701
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: Reagan's who has just had a little bit of an

702
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: unfortunate year with injuries. Bubbo and in a very high

703
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 1: babbitt I'm buying all the way back in in twenty

704
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: twenty six.

705
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 2: Do you agree, Oh, yeah, no, I'm in that. Like

706
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 2: to me, it's I guess, risk rewards. Some people don't

707
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 2: have the risk reward when it comes to their pitching,

708
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 2: and I get it. But if you can stomach like

709
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,520
Speaker 2: a Tyler Glass now or a Blake Snell, you should

710
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 2: be able to stomach a Cole Reagan's because, yeah, there

711
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 2: might be some risk there, but even if he gives

712
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 2: you one hundred to one hundred and twenty innings, this

713
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 2: gonna be some elite production and we've seen him go

714
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 2: much deeper than that before. The fact he's making starts

715
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 2: to finish the season gives me confidence in his health.

716
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 2: And I'm with you on this one.

717
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, Justin and Paul and I were talking about it,

718
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: and I think it was Justin who said, like that

719
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty six inning season is starting to

720
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: look like the outlier a little bit. And we'll see

721
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 1: if he has another injury filled year next year, That's

722
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 1: when I would probably be a little bit worried. But

723
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: right now I'm still very much interested in Cole Reagan's

724
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: On the downs, David Peterson, he's completely fallen apart in

725
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 1: the second half, given it all back just an inning

726
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 1: and a third, allot five earned runs on five hits

727
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: and two walks. Hey Haineo Suarez with a golden sombrero

728
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 1: and Kevin Gosman four and runs on nine hits over

729
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: five and two thirds yesterday. Not a great day for him.

730
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:58,479
Speaker 1: They also got completely hosed by The's not Gosman in particular,

731
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 1: just the Blue Jays getting absolutely hosed. That maybe got

732
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: into his heat a little bit. Who knows. I don't

733
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,719
Speaker 1: want to derail the show. I could talk at nauseum.

734
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 2: About sounds like, sounds like you have interest in this one.

735
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: Joe, Oh my god, yesterday? Did you see what happened?

736
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: Do you see the Springer plays yesterday?

737
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, I was. I think I was recording one

738
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 2: of my shows and that a bat was on in spring.

739
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 2: First the foul ball that wasn't a foul ball thing,

740
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 2: and then the strike three where he I'm surprised he

741
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 2: didn't get tossed. He did enough and kept it together.

742
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 2: I was shocked. I thought he was gonna he had

743
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 2: all the right oh to turn her out and basically

744
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 2: tell him where stuff should fly, basically, Yeah, but he

745
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 2: did not.

746
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: John Schneider got out there quickly. It was early in

747
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 1: the game, you're still fighting for positioning. That was about

748
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 1: as heated as I've seen George in the yes four

749
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: or so years he's been in Toronto. He's usually pretty composed.

750
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: He's usually a pretty happy, go lucky guy. Not yesterday

751
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 1: he was. He was pretty pissed, and I don't blame him.

752
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 1: Almost like about a couple of injuries. Speaking of pissed,

753
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 1: Wyatt Langford or another side issue had to leave early yesterday.

754
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: I think this I've lost track of the oblique slash

755
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 1: side issues this year. I want to say it's five

756
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: times this has popped up, going back to the preseason.

757
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 1: I don't know how much I want to take him

758
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 1: next year. I love the skill set, I love the talent,

759
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 1: but these side issues are really starting to worry me.

760
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm still interested. It is very concerning, and it

761
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 2: feels like the last couple they rushed him back. That's

762
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 2: what I'm more like, what are we doing here? I

763
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 2: feel like he was He's never really been healthy, even

764
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 2: this one right here. He sat out the weekend and

765
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 2: he comes back for an inning. It's like, Okay, he

766
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 2: probably wasn't ready. Guys, Like, what are we doing here.

767
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 2: So there there's a few situations like that, but yeah,

768
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 2: he's had too many of them. You're not wrong in

769
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 2: that regard, so I can see the trepidation come draft day.

770
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 2: I'm still interested because the skill set's so dark good

771
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 2: like he still went twenty twenty on a banged up

772
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 2: season with a.

773
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: Fourteen percent barrel, forty eight hardhead, thirteen percent walk. Great

774
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 1: he is. He is going to be a great player

775
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 1: as long as he can avoid the injury bug. One

776
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty four games. I mean, it's not like

777
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 1: it's cost him a ton of the season, but when

778
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 1: he's been on the field, there have been time or

779
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 1: he's really looking like he's playing hampered, and I think

780
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 1: that is what has cost him a little bit. Here

781
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 1: Kate Horden left early after his back tightened up yesterday.

782
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 1: It looked like he was going to be in line

783
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 1: for the win. Had to leave after three. Not good

784
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 1: if you started him for his final start of the year.

785
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 1: And we've talked about already how he's probably seventy you're

786
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 1: going to want to avoid next year. That price is

787
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 1: probably going to be a little too high based on

788
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: the surface numbers. Here's an interesting one. I didn't expect

789
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 1: Roki Sazaki will be activated and pitched out of the

790
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 1: bullpen for the Dodgers. There's no fantasy move here obviously,

791
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 1: pitching out of the pen, but just an interesting reinforcement

792
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 1: for them to have into the playoffs. Anthony santon Dare

793
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 1: was activated by the Blue Jays. That was the reason

794
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: why Alec Manoah was sent away. Ty Franz also went

795
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 1: on the al yesterday, but Anthony santan Dare backed buy.

796
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: But if you're in a daily league, you know, let's

797
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 1: say you need an outfielder potentially need a little bit

798
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 1: of pop, would you be picking him up and starting

799
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 1: him right now?

800
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you're interested in pop, they should play him

801
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 2: every day to get at bats for the postseason. Yeah,

802
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 2: to get ready. So yeah, I'm on board with that.

803
00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 2: The Jays have a pretty friendly matchups this weekend with Howser,

804
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 2: Boil and Seymour, and Seymour is actually going to be

805
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 2: moving to the bullpen, so who knows who's pitching Sunday

806
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 2: for Tampa Bay.

807
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 1: I didn't see that, really, why are they doing that?

808
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:09,879
Speaker 1: He's been so good?

809
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:11,879
Speaker 2: I don't know. I was doing my news and notes

810
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 2: last night for the patreoon and like, let me find

811
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 2: the actual tweet real quick for you. But that's yeah.

812
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,920
Speaker 2: They announced yesterday Ian Seymour will pitch out of the

813
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 2: bullpenned and it's available tonight. That was yesterday. Kevin Cash

814
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 2: ed he likely, he's like, okay, so he might make

815
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 2: one more start. He said, he's likely to make one

816
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 2: more start, so he could pitch Sunday. But he's supposed

817
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 2: to two step this week and now they're pushing him back,

818
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 2: so who knows even he makes that start.

819
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Rays are so weird, such a weird team. Well,

820
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 1: they are going to be who they are going to be.

821
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: Brian Wu had his start skipped but apparently won't go

822
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 1: on the IL. I have no confidence that he's going

823
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,440
Speaker 1: to start another game this regular season. Maybe in the postseason,

824
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:50,800
Speaker 1: but in the regular season, I don't think so.

825
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, they said they're going to throw a bullpen

826
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 2: on Thursday instead of a start, which means, hey, let's

827
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,280
Speaker 2: get him healthy for the second round of the playoffs

828
00:34:58,280 --> 00:34:58,879
Speaker 2: since we have a buye.

829
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I think as well. And then Tyler

830
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 1: McGill unfortunately underwent Tommy John surgery. I've always liked Tyler McGill.

831
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,400
Speaker 1: The first podcast I ever did was with Ryan Bloomfield,

832
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 1: and I remember we talked about Tyler McGill, well, the

833
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 1: first name we talked about on the sheet. It's one

834
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:15,839
Speaker 1: of those weird things that stands out. Just a nice

835
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 1: memory for me with Ryan and Tyler McGill. But Tyler

836
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,719
Speaker 1: McGill unfortunately not gonna be around the rest of this year,

837
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:23,600
Speaker 1: and you won't see him on the mound next year

838
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 1: at this point either. And that will take us to

839
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 1: our final best bets of the day segment of the year.

840
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 1: I don't think there's gonna be any bets on Friday.

841
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 1: I could be wrong, but Bubba, for your last three

842
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 1: bets on leading off of the year, what do you got,

843
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:35,839
Speaker 1: my friend?

844
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:39,720
Speaker 2: I was baffled to see the number plus one ninety

845
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 2: for Pete Alonzo over three hits, runs and RBIs as

846
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 2: he's just been mashing everything. Now the wind can be

847
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,040
Speaker 2: blowing in and Wrigley. I see how there could be

848
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,800
Speaker 2: issues with this scenario, But you got Matthew Boyd on

849
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,440
Speaker 2: the bump, who's broken, he's exhausted, he's done. It's give

850
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,239
Speaker 2: me Pete Alonso. In this one, I mentioned we'll be

851
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 2: going back to the Austin Martinwell over two hits runs

852
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,320
Speaker 2: in RBIs at plus one twenty five them in because

853
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 2: he's getting on base a ton, he's scoring runs, stealing bags.

854
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 2: I know it's de Grom, but de Grom's not look

855
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 2: the same of late plus. You get a banged up

856
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 2: Rangers bullpen in that matchup, and then we're going with

857
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,160
Speaker 2: a pitching prop. We're going with Blake Snell over six

858
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 2: and a half strikeouts A plus one twenty takes on

859
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 2: the Diamondbacks team striking out about twenty two percent of

860
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,160
Speaker 2: the time Verus lefties over the past month. Snell's coming

861
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:26,560
Speaker 2: off back to back double digit strikeout performances. If Snell

862
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 2: doesn't walk guys, I don't see why he doesn't get

863
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,320
Speaker 2: seven plus k's in this matchup. So give me a

864
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,760
Speaker 2: plus money at plus one twenty. I didn't put Colec

865
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 2: on the list, but you might as well throw that

866
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,320
Speaker 2: just for fun, because you know the Angels stink.

867
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,359
Speaker 1: The Angels do very much stink on that Blake Snell number.

868
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 1: I like it the Dodgers rotation right now, especially with

869
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 1: show hey cooking Lois he is. This is maybe we

870
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,960
Speaker 1: should have picked them in the nationally they're looking very good.

871
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 1: I agree on that, Blake Snell one in particular, and

872
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 1: I also agree with with Austin Martin. There, I'll start

873
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 1: with mine. I'll start with de Gram here. It's at

874
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,320
Speaker 1: the bottom of the page. But you know, I have

875
00:36:58,360 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 1: been the biggest de Gram fan, and I'm taking the

876
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 1: over here because I just don't think that he has

877
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 1: looked fully right recently. Over one and a half earned

878
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,759
Speaker 1: runs minus one oh nine, he could still have a

879
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: very good game. You give up two earned runs, and

880
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,879
Speaker 1: that's probably what's going to happen here. But I feel

881
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 1: like that number is probably a little bit too good

882
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,320
Speaker 1: to be passing up Miami and Philadelphia over eight and

883
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 1: a half earned runs. Ryan Weathers and Hazus Wizardo. Weathers,

884
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 1: who had been on a long layoff, comes back and

885
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 1: looks good. I don't have a ton of worry there.

886
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 1: But Philadelphia, you know, they can scare you. They can

887
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 1: definitely scare you as a team. And then Hazes Lozzardo

888
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 1: on the other side of that, the biggest wild card,

889
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,919
Speaker 1: probably of all the pitchers this year, facing a team

890
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 1: in Miami. Bubba mentioned earlier, all second they're not a

891
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:40,440
Speaker 1: joke of an offense. So I think that this game

892
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 1: going over eight and a half feels pretty likely. And

893
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,720
Speaker 1: I've taken that one at minus one oh two. Essentially

894
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 1: you're getting it even there. And then Pittsburgh Cincinnati, I'm

895
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,799
Speaker 1: taking the pitching duel here Paul Skens and Hunter Green

896
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,880
Speaker 1: under seven runs at minus one fourteen. Those are our

897
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,359
Speaker 1: final best bets of the day, and that'll bring us

898
00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 1: to the home run board. Let's see what is going

899
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,879
Speaker 1: on with the Homers. Whips is pulling away here at

900
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: sixty four. It's gonna take a lot from Positive Grouch

901
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 1: or b Is at sixty two and second and third

902
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 1: to come back. George with sixty, Fisher King with fifty nine.

903
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 1: It's gonna take another Nick Kurtz for home run game

904
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 1: to put you back in the mix. Here. It looks

905
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 1: like it's gonna be Whips, but Positive Grouch and Bees

906
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: need a big one over the weekend to come back

907
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: into it. I've had two consecutive home run calls go

908
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: my way. You've been watching the show all year, you

909
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: know that it's like there must be a red moon

910
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:33,400
Speaker 1: outside or something like that. Augustine Ramirez and Ronald Acunya

911
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 1: Junior have been helping me out. So today I'm taking

912
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 1: Jaron Duran against Max schers Or who looks like he

913
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 1: should be retiring very very soon. He looks broken. I

914
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 1: am taking Jaron Duran in Toronto tonight against Max Scher's

915
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 1: or Bubba. Where are you going today for your home

916
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 1: run call? My friend?

917
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:49,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm trying to back up the mett Olsen call

918
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 2: last Friday with a chalkier than chalk flate. I haven't

919
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 2: done this all season, so we're going Aaron Judge. Yeah,

920
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,719
Speaker 2: they're facing the Chicago White Sox. They're facing Ellard and

921
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 2: a bullpen game. A White Socks bullpen. Let me echo that.

922
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 2: So it should be some very nice matchups for Aaron Judge.

923
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 2: I was gonna pick any Yankee, but I'm like, ah,

924
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 2: let's go Judge for the final day of the season

925
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 2: and see where it goes.

926
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 1: You might as well, and maybe we should put some

927
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:15,120
Speaker 1: kind of limitation on it next year. Not for you

928
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,440
Speaker 1: or not for me, but like anybody who wants to

929
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 1: pick a guy like show Hey or Judge, like we

930
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: should cap at a like five times for the year

931
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,600
Speaker 1: or something like that, you know, because like the way

932
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 1: the rules work. You go Judge Show, Hey Alonso, Judge Show,

933
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,719
Speaker 1: Hey Shure Bur and you just rotate there. I don't know, Well,

934
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:33,480
Speaker 1: I'll talk with Kelly. I think Kelly is the one

935
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 1: who is the keeper of the keys on the discord

936
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 1: side there, and we'll talk about it for next year.
