1 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to Fantasy pros. This is the Fantasy 2 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:10,880 Speaker 1: Baseball Podcast. It is me Joey p joe. 3 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 2: Pisapia, and today we've got another all star team for 4 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:17,320 Speaker 2: you today it's the All Sleeper Team for twenty twenty four. 5 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 2: Get excited, everybody, It's me, it's the Welsh, it's you, 6 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 2: and everybody has a different definition of sleeper. And to me, Welsh, 7 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 2: when I think about sleepers, I just think about guys who. 8 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: Are being undervalued. 9 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 2: And sometimes it's young players, but sometimes it's also veterans 10 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 2: who continue to produce and yet still nobody wants them 11 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,520 Speaker 2: because they're another year older. But sometimes these veterans can 12 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 2: continue to be steady productive players in your fantasy lineup. 13 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 2: Do you have a definition of sleeper before we kick 14 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 2: things off with our All Sleeper Team of twenty twenty four. 15 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's kind of like, uh, because there's breakouts 16 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 3: and there's sleepers and rebounds and blah blah blah. They're 17 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 3: they're all in the same family. So sleepers, in my 18 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 3: mind are players that are being taught about less than 19 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 3: Because we just did the Breakouts episode and that episode 20 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 3: is designed these players are ready to take this next step, 21 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 3: and they're usially not like in the higher level, I 22 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 3: do think sleepers can still be Like there could be 23 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 3: a guy that's ranked like fifty if I think he 24 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 3: can be the first overall player. Michael Harris. Michael Harris 25 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 3: isn't a sleeper technically. 26 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: No, but in the depth be a sleeper of the 27 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: first No. 28 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 3: No, but in my definition of like, if that's a 29 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 3: guy that's like a third rounder, that I can be 30 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 3: a first rounder, Like, that's kind of that undervat. So 31 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 3: it comes back to your undervalued conversation. My definition in 32 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 3: this episode is players that get talked about less because 33 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 3: the community is so much bigger, there's so many more 34 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 3: people in voices, it's hard to find sleepers and deeper. 35 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 3: So I'm playing these deeper names because I do believe 36 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 3: there's handfuls of players that are still in the top 37 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 3: one hundred that are sleepers by being undervalued. But these 38 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 3: are much further down. These are further down guys we're 39 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 3: sleeping on that in some cases aren't really being drafted, 40 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 3: could then end up jumping in and being valuable starters 41 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 3: across the board. So I will kind of join you 42 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 3: in all all that stupid crap. I just said in 43 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 3: that it's like it's undervalued. These are undervalued players discussed. 44 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: Sleep is the key for you. 45 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 2: I like it when you said under discussed because I 46 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: think you know, there's certain guys we've talked about so much. 47 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 2: You know, we've talked about the Reagans and the Michael 48 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 2: Kings and the Kaminaro, like, we've. 49 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: Talked about those guys, and we love those guys. 50 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 2: But I think it's important to start to give some 51 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 2: love to some players that nobody's talking about, or maybe 52 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 2: people are tired of talking about, or even worse. Take 53 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,079 Speaker 2: for granted, and I'm looking at just so happens. All 54 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 2: of mine are ADP's outside of the top two hundred 55 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 2: save one who's at one ninety nine currently, So I'm 56 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 2: talking about guys that are buried. I'm talking about this 57 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 2: is towards the end of your drafts. So again for sleepers, 58 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 2: it's a mixture. For me, and I'm gonna start here 59 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 2: with our catcher, and for me, it's Mitch Garver, who 60 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 2: I don't think people are paying enough attention to now 61 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 2: when you look at fangrafts, he is slated to hit 62 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 2: four in this lineup. He qualifies at catcher, but he's 63 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 2: also going to DA so you're gonna get more at 64 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 2: bats out of Mitch Garver. Mitch Garver last year had 65 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 2: a pretty solid season. He's still going to give you power, 66 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 2: which I think that's something that is forgotten too much. 67 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 2: If you're in deeper leagues and you're looking for somebody 68 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 2: with RBI potential, somebody with power potential, or in the 69 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 2: two catcher league, Mitch. 70 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: Garver becomes really intriguing. 71 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 2: He is right now currently the fifteenth catcher going off 72 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: the board and Welsh I don't think we're taking enough 73 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 2: into account his position in the batting order, which means 74 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,679 Speaker 2: so much. He's got Horidy Polanco and Julio Rodriguez hitting 75 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 2: in front of him. Those guys are going to be 76 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 2: on base. He's gonna have RBI opportunities. I think Mitch 77 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 2: Garver is one of these guys that you could take 78 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 2: as a deeper league utility guy. I think he's a 79 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 2: great bench bat. I think he's a great deeper league 80 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: catcher or in a two catcher league. Mitch Garver is 81 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: somebody you should pay attention to because, like I said, 82 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 2: he is going to qualify there and He's going to 83 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 2: get at bats in the middle of that Seattle order, 84 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 2: and I think Seattle is going to be challenging for 85 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 2: that West this year. 86 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: They're my pick to win it. 87 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 2: I know that's not always the popular pick, but I 88 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 2: think from the board right now on the betting side, 89 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 2: it's a really intriguing one. Who is your catcher that 90 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 2: you think is in your all sleeper team this year? 91 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I want to point out I probably would have 92 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 3: picked Garver here of all the position I was also say, 93 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 3: all the positions that we're gonna talk about. I do 94 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 3: think the line between breakout and sleeper and like favorite 95 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 3: player to draft, they're really close in this because, as 96 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 3: I've said to a lot of people, I like late catchers. 97 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 3: I don't want any of the guys on the top end. 98 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 3: So could I have picked Gabby Moreno here, Yeah, I 99 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 3: put him in the all breakout team because I think 100 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 3: he's going to take a next step one of your 101 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 3: guys Logan, Ohoppy, I could have put him here as well. Garb. 102 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 2: I think I'd breakout because I think he showed you 103 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 2: enough last year where you're like, Okay, you give this 104 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 2: guy one hundred and you know twenty five games, he's 105 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 2: gonna hit thirty home runs, like that's a breakout. 106 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 3: But he's also a sleeper at catcher. 107 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 2: Fourteen he can be You're right at sleeper at catcher. 108 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 2: He's still technically a sleeper as well. But you got 109 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 2: another name. 110 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 3: On this, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I was just kind 111 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 3: of lining all those up because I think the line 112 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 3: is very thin. The guy that I picked is the 113 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 3: ninth adyp catcher, so it's not too too far down there. 114 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 3: It's Wilson Catreras. And one of the reasons behind putting 115 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 3: Wilson Contreras there is constant twenty three straight seasons now, 116 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 3: he has put up at least twenty homers, gets a 117 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 3: handful of stolen bases. Batting average is actually ticked up 118 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 3: over the last three years. I think that Cardinal team 119 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 3: is gonna kind of rock back out this year this 120 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,239 Speaker 3: coming year. His XBA was the highest of his career 121 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 3: this past year, two seventy nine versus his two sixty 122 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 3: four batting average. Hard hit numbers are pretty solid, almost 123 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 3: forty seven percent hard hit Baseball Savant. You go and 124 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 3: look outside of his chase rate, you're kind of top 125 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 3: twenty percentile and ex wOBA X slugging in a really 126 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 3: good offensive lineup that I think, like I said, Aeronaudo 127 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 3: Goldie are going to have a bounce back and at 128 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 3: catcher nine. Really the sleeper aspect of this is I 129 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 3: don't think anybody talks about him. People talk more about 130 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 3: his brother. People focus on the top end. I think 131 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 3: Catres can easily be a top five closer or catcher, 132 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 3: So I think he definitely defines the high end offensive 133 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 3: upside that I want from catcher. So Gabby Marino breaks out, 134 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 3: Ohapi breaks out, Garver is killer, but Contreris can be 135 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 3: a top five catcher easy with those offensive stats, and 136 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 3: that is why we are sleeping on him and he's 137 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 3: my all catcher sleeper. 138 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: Let's take a quick break in the action and tell 139 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: you about underdog fantasy.

I think with all the new rookies, 162 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 2: were kind of leaving him out of a lot of discussions. 163 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: So let's talk about your selection. 164 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, so you were saying like all your sleepers are 165 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 3: outside the top two hundred. Contrast is technically because of 166 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 3: the NFPC, I have two other players that are inside 167 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 3: the top two hundred that I'm designing as sleepers. This 168 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 3: is one of them Christian incarnacion strand huge hard hit 169 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 3: numbers this past year average one to eleven almost essentially 170 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 3: one to twelve ev, which is killer. Over ten percent 171 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 3: barrel rate, which is great, almost a fifty percent hard 172 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 3: hit rate which is phenomenal, forty eight point four percent. 173 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 3: And let's go back to the batting average stuff. His 174 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 3: expected batting average XBA it was the same as his 175 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 3: batting average which was two seventy. So their strikeout issues. 176 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 3: But what does he do in my book, hits the 177 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,559 Speaker 3: ball really hard. He also barrels the ball, he gets 178 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 3: it in the air. And now he's got more opportunity 179 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 3: with the Nuelvie Marte situation in the best hitting ballpark 180 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 3: in baseball, best ballpark factors, So now we're less worried 181 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 3: about any weird playing time stuff. He's going to be 182 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,079 Speaker 3: handed this first base job. So why is he a sleeper? 183 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 3: Because he is being massively undervalued, which could have been 184 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 3: a big piece because of this weird situation with too 185 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 3: many players, and this might start to change. But at 186 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 3: one fifty seven and ADP the nineteenth first baseman on 187 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 3: the Fantasy pros, ADP, he's a sleeper he's the top 188 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 3: one hundred bat Christian and Carnelcion Strand. I love Tristan Kassis. 189 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 3: He's my all breakout team. I all whatever, I want, 190 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,719 Speaker 3: every share of him. Strand could put up top ten 191 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 3: catcher numbers this year and he's almost going into the 192 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 3: first base numbers. 193 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 1: You mean first base? 194 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, first base. I'm catcher closer. 195 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: You tried to have a catcher close and now you're 196 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: like catcher. 197 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 3: Closer is as an enunciation thing between it. I screwed 198 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 3: up all the time. I don't know how I turned 199 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 3: him into a catcher. The good thing is he's got 200 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 3: a position. It's first base. Those power numbers are real 201 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 3: and there's a thirty home run potential, uh with Cincinnati 202 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 3: with all of that playing time. So I think Strand 203 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 3: we have been sleeping on him, and we might not 204 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 3: be so sleepy anymore because of the Nouelvie Marte situation. 205 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 3: But he's my pick for the all sleeper first baseman. 206 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: I've got one from Cincinnati. 207 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 2: And also, you know, if you watch the show last week, 208 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 2: we did the breakout Team and I was talking about 209 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 2: Michael Garcia Thurbe. I was also talking about Nuevee Marte. 210 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: That was my main guy. 211 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 2: And of course the pd suspension came like hours later 212 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 2: after we finished that show, of course, but because of 213 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 2: that same suspension, I've got another guy in Cincinnati who 214 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 2: he's gonna get more playing time for sure. Now it's 215 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 2: johnmer Candelario of the Cincinnati Rights. Last year, coming off 216 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 2: a season where he had twenty two homers the RBI 217 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 2: seventy runs, he say, okay, well, that's not really exciting, 218 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 2: but you know what, it's exciting enough when you're hitting 219 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 2: in the middle of his order in a good offensive ballpark, 220 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 2: on a good offensive team, and in those mixed leagues, 221 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 2: those deeper leagues where you're looking for help in your 222 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 2: corner spots. He qualifies at first, he qualifies a third. 223 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 2: The dual eligibility is great. I'm putting him here at 224 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 2: first base on this team because, again, middle of the order. 225 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 2: I keep coming back to how important lineup placement is 226 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 2: in fantasy and right now, Strand is looking like he 227 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 2: could be hitting eighth according to Fangrafts. That's where he's projected. 228 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 2: Candelario hitting cleanup right now. Now, that could flip flop 229 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 2: by May. But at the same time. I think you 230 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 2: have to pay attention to Candelaria. He is a player 231 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 2: that I don't think gets enough credit. Another guy too, 232 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 2: He qualifies at second base. He qualifies a couple of 233 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 2: places as a Brandon Drury of the Los Angeles Angels. 234 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 2: He is the twenty second second baseman going off the 235 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 2: board two twenty and ADP currently and this is another 236 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 2: one Welsh. I just don't get it. I keep looking 237 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 2: around and I keep saying to myself, why does no 238 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 2: one want Brandon Drury qualifies at first qualifies a second 239 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 2: two straight of twenty six or more homers, twenty eight 240 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 2: homers in twenty twenty two, twenty six last year. Again, 241 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 2: I understand the runs and RBI fell short a little bit, 242 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 2: maybe have expectations, especially the runs last year, down from 243 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 2: eighty seven to sixty seven, but he's still at two 244 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 2: sixty in both of those. I'm looking at just the 245 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 2: profile of this player, and I think, because people are 246 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 2: so sour on the Angels, and rightfully so, that his 247 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 2: ADP has been suppressed further than it should be, because 248 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 2: if you're just talking about a projectability of a twenty 249 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 2: eighty eighty player, and that's what he is with a 250 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 2: two to sixty batting average. I think that's better than 251 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 2: two twenty at eightp I just think that's far more valuable. 252 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 2: You know who the player is. I understand that first year, 253 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 2: maybe you weren't buying all the power, you weren't buying everything. 254 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 2: But when he basically repeated it year over year, what 255 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 2: do you have to lose with this player? 256 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: Nothing. 257 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 2: I don't think we've done one show where we talked 258 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 2: about him. I've started drafting him. I drafted him in 259 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 2: the raz Slam. I drafted him in a couple other 260 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 2: best ball situations. We just did the Underdog Draft. I 261 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 2: drafted him there too. He's going late, he's got pop, 262 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 2: he's got at bats. To me, this is another player 263 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 2: that I'm going to lock in terms of batting order. Also, 264 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 2: that's another thing where okay, where's he gonna hit in 265 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 2: the order. We know Trout's gonna be, you know, towards 266 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 2: the top of the order, but right now he is 267 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 2: slated to hit sixth in this batting order. 268 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: That's a good situation there. 269 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 2: Anthony Rendome is never healthy, so he could easily flip 270 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 2: into that four or five spot without a doubt. 271 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: So that's my guy's second. Okay, so Drury is the 272 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: guy for me. 273 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,839 Speaker 2: Welsh, You've got another guy at second base on your list, 274 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 2: also on the same Angel squad. 275 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 3: I'm gonna stay with it. It was funny. I actually had 276 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 3: a Bill smile when you when you put dry on 277 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 3: here and you said Drury because I'm going on that 278 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 3: other side with Luis Ringifo as a super super deep 279 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 3: sleeper here two sixty six ADP right now, as far 280 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 3: as second base goes, he's ranked twenty eighth on the 281 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 3: Fantasy pros ADP when you look at it now, numbers 282 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 3: last year pretty solid. He's he increased his barrel percentage 283 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 3: career high barrel percentage into the sevens. His hard hit 284 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 3: rate continues to tick up. It was actually a career 285 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 3: high thirty six point nine percent. But the guy at 286 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 3: LEAs sits around that two fifty batting average marker does 287 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 3: not strike out a whole bunch. We've seen some power 288 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 3: seventeen and sixteen homers respectively. He's also hit the same 289 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 3: batting average two straight years. But the talking about him 290 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 3: leading off, and that's something that I really know pun 291 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 3: intended to our show. That's something that I really like 292 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 3: if he's going to be able to lead off, even 293 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 3: if it's in a split situation, if it's like him 294 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 3: and then Shan, well, if they're going to go back 295 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 3: between that, it's going to create run opportunities. Everything that 296 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 3: you just said about Brandon Drury lives with Rin Gifo 297 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 3: as well. He's probably going to score more runs than 298 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 3: he is RBI batting average anywhere from the two fifty 299 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 3: to two seventy range. He's going to steal some bases, 300 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 3: we might get into double digits with more opportunities, and 301 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 3: he qualifies at a lot of different spots. So he's 302 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 3: kind of one of those super utility markers. So Luis 303 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 3: ring Guifo is going to be my sleeper second baseman. 304 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 2: Now I mentioned this name on the Breakout Show, and 305 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 2: you've carried him over to the sleeper list because I 306 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 2: think it's a great spot. So with third base, as 307 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 2: a guy in Kansas City who who might be flying 308 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 2: to the top of the batting order because he's having 309 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 2: such a good spring. We talked about him last week, 310 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 2: Michael Garcia, So Walsha, I want you to talk about 311 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 2: him some more because this is a player that I 312 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 2: kind of, you know, was alluding to maybe there's a 313 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 2: breakout there. 314 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: Not the biggest slugger. 315 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 2: You look at the minor league numbers, you know, not 316 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 2: a lot of power there, but maybe there's a little 317 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 2: bit more pop. Maybe again the run score, the stolen bases, 318 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 2: maybe all that is enough here if he makes enough 319 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 2: contact to go from the nine hole to the one hole, 320 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 2: and that would be huge for his fantasy value coming 321 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 2: out of the gate and opening day. 322 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I want to point out too that one 323 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 3: hundred percent was putting Candelari on this list. You got Candelario, 324 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 3: this was my third base guy. You already talked about him, 325 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 3: but he is a one thousand percent all sleeper team guy. 326 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 3: But the other guy that was floating around, like you said, 327 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 3: was Michael Garcia. It's not a big power play and 328 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 3: sometimes playing like out of traditional stats. Bagman and I 329 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 3: did this episode on ITL about a month or month 330 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 3: and a half ago where it was like what do 331 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 3: you need out of your positions, Like what are the 332 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 3: average stats of the starters you need? And third base, 333 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 3: Harry's a lot of big power. So if you're gonna 334 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 3: take perceivably if he was gonna be like your starter, 335 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 3: you're missing a lot of power and you're gonna have 336 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 3: to make up in other spots. That marker goes down 337 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 3: when you start to look at a player that you 338 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 3: can put for your middle or corneringfield. And that's a 339 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 3: cool thing about Michael Garcia is he could qualify at 340 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 3: third and short in some places. ADP's around two point 341 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 3: fifty big hard hit number last year fifty point six percent, 342 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 3: and he had over four hundred and sixty at bats, 343 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 3: So that's nothing to just scoff at. Problem is he 344 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 3: hasn't gotten the ball in the air. It was around 345 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 3: a four percent barrel percentage. But he doesn't strike out. 346 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 3: He walks some and he steals tons of bases. He's 347 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 3: stole twenty three this past year. I've seen him a 348 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 3: bunch in camp. Looks like he's gotten bigger over at 349 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 3: Royals camp. If he is leading off, there's run arby 350 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 3: run opportunities. There are tons of stolen base opportunities that 351 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 3: you're getting out of position. If that power can come up, 352 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 3: kel Garcia could be a low key CJ. Abrams this year. 353 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 3: If he can get to twelve to fifteen homers, Yeah, 354 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 3: and he could push thirty stolen bases and you could 355 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 3: have that at third. Michael Garcia is one of my 356 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 3: big sleepers, and we're putting him here at third base. 357 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 2: He's projected already on fangrafts to lead off. Now that 358 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 2: was not the case last week when we talked about him. 359 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 2: So there's you look at some of the spring training lineups, 360 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 2: keep looking at where Garcia is hitting when you get 361 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 2: into the next week or so spring training, as Welsh 362 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 2: alluded to, as a player who's making a step up. 363 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 2: And he is so cheap right now, I mean two 364 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 2: forty seven, Welsh, that's just absurd. 365 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 3: And it's it's late stolen bases, and it's late stolen 366 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 3: bases just to throw out. So it's like you, you know, 367 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 3: he qualifies in a couple of different spots. 368 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: He's cheap. 369 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 4: You're trying to chase your stolen bases. This is the 370 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 4: guy to chase. My guy is somebody that's been around forever. Literally, 371 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 4: he's one hundred and forty two years old. He's being 372 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 4: drafted outside the top two hundred. He's at two to two. 373 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 4: He's a twenty first third baseman being selected. And I 374 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 4: get it, you're not excited about drafting Justin Turner. 375 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: I get it. Okay, last year, what did he do? 376 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 2: He at two seventy six, eighty six runs, ninety six 377 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 2: twenty three homers. He played one hundred and forty six games, 378 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 2: which is great. I know in twenty two he only 379 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 2: played one hundred and twenty eight, but he did play 380 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty one and twenty twenty one. So 381 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 2: when you're drafting Justin Turner, you have to realize you're 382 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 2: probably at best getting some around one hundred and thirty games, 383 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 2: like that's kind of what your peak is. But he 384 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 2: continues to show you that he's still gonna probably drop 385 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 2: twenty bombs and there he's gonna drive in runs. 386 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 1: And guess what. 387 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 2: Guess where he's hitting Welsh in the order for the 388 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 2: Blue Jays this year. He's slated to hit cleanup. Now, 389 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 2: I've just given you four straight guys being drafted outside 390 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 2: the top two hundred who are hitting clean up for 391 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 2: their respective teams. Mitch Garver, Candelario, Drury and Turner. Are 392 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 2: they the most exciting guys on the planet? No? Are 393 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 2: they going to be productive if they stay in that 394 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 2: cleanup spot? Yeah, they are outside the top two hundred. 395 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 2: To me, Welsh, it's a win. People are just bored. 396 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 2: They're concerned with the age, and I get it, but 397 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 2: he is still a live bat. You look at the 398 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 2: second half of the year, the stats are still there. 399 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 2: All he does is hit the baseball. That's basically all 400 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 2: he's done his entire career. After being a utility player 401 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 2: for the Mets, and of course only the Mets. Could 402 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 2: I get a guy so wrong, like Justin Turner, and 403 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 2: then he goes on to have a great career and 404 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 2: hits twenty home runs and hits two eighty five every year, 405 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 2: only the Mets. Let's switch gears to shortstop. Here Welsh 406 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 2: and my guy shortstop. I'm excited about. He's turning just 407 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 2: twenty two. His exit velo this spring has been unbelievable. 408 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 2: He's had a couple balls over one hundred. Ezekiel Tovar, 409 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 2: who had some great numbers in the minor leagues, very 410 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 2: young players. Still, he got exposed last year at the 411 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 2: major league level too much swing and miss. He has 412 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 2: worked his butt off. You could see also physically a 413 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 2: little different this year, a little bigger in the lower 414 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 2: half in terms of the leg size, so you see 415 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,400 Speaker 2: like he's getting more drive on the baseball. 416 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: So far, he looks really good. He is crushed minor 417 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 1: league pitching. 418 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 2: He got exposed a little bit, and that happens sometimes 419 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 2: with young players. But as excited as I was about 420 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 2: Tovar last year, I'm still excited about him this year. 421 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 2: And I feel like the bloom is off the rows. 422 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 2: Everybody's moved on to the next thing and the next thing, 423 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 2: and I have not. I'm gonna give this guy a 424 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 2: little bit more time. Why because he also plays in Colorado. Folks, 425 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 2: At any point, you know, Colorado is a great place 426 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 2: to play. So if he can get right trim down 427 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 2: the strikeouts a little bit. So far the spring things 428 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 2: have gone really well for him. I had an eighth 429 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 2: keeper in my home league. He was the last guy 430 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 2: I kept because it was a good price, and I 431 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 2: was like, you know what, let me see what age 432 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 2: twenty two season brings for a guy who's playing shortstop 433 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 2: for the Rockies. And again, you look back at the 434 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 2: minor league track record, this was a player that showed 435 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 2: you some elite offensive potential. So to me, this is 436 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 2: a player that we've forgotten about and we shouldn't have. 437 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 2: And til Var should be a guy on your radar 438 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 2: going at two oh five, the twenty first shortstop Welsh, 439 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 2: where are you going for shortstop for your all sleeper team? 440 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I love yours. I think like if you were 441 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 3: literally drafting, if we were like drafting the all sleepers, 442 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 3: like he would be the quintessential sleeper shortstop. This year, 443 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 3: I'm going deeper and I don't remember. Let me take 444 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 3: a look at it. This might be one of the 445 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 3: deepest guys here. 446 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is outside of three hundred baby. 447 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 3: Three seventeen shortstop thirty really one of my favorite guys, 448 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 3: especially in deeper leagues. To take zach Netto, we're going 449 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 3: back to the Angels. You're just looking for opportunities. Now. 450 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 3: Where he's hitting in the lineup might be a problem. 451 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 3: There was a time where they even talked about maybe 452 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 3: hitting him higher in and leading off. Currently he's setting 453 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 3: at nine, So those are going to kind of backtrack 454 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 3: a little bit. But let me read off this ATC 455 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 3: projections on zach Netto. So remember this is the number 456 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 3: nine hitter outside of the three hundreds ATC two forty 457 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:26,679 Speaker 3: eight eighteen homers, nine stolen bases in five hundred and 458 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 3: thirty four played appearances. It's one hundred and thirty games. 459 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 3: So if you want to push that up to one 460 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty games in a full season, that's a 461 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 3: twenty ten guy probably into the seventies and runs bat 462 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 3: x has. I'm hitting two point fifty one, eighteen homers, 463 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 3: seven stolen bases. Playing time is still down. Neto's one 464 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 3: of those guys forty percent hard hit rate, barrel percentage 465 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 3: almost into the double digits at eight point eight. That's 466 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 3: a great thing to see for like a young shortstop, 467 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 3: and we've seen this power grow. I think Nedo is 468 00:20:55,920 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 3: one of the most undervalued shortstops, especially for the counting stats. 469 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 3: Twenty ten isn't just something we throw away. We're talking 470 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 3: about that earlier twenty ten out of that middle infield. 471 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 3: He's more of a traditional middle infielder. You're not gonna 472 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 3: draft him as a shortstop, but at the end of 473 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 3: the day, he might be able to put up top 474 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 3: fifteen shortstop numbers, maybe even a little bit higher, especially 475 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 3: if he moves higher in that lineup. But the power 476 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,919 Speaker 3: is becoming real. It's all about contact. He's kind of 477 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 3: like an Anthony Volpi. He just doesn't steal as much. 478 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,919 Speaker 3: Netto's trending up. He's one of my sleepers, trying to 479 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 3: draft him wherever I can. 480 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, these are two guys in Neto and Tovar 481 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 2: that we were all excited about last year, young players 482 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 2: coming up, and just because it didn't hit the ground 483 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 2: running right away does not mean that you throw them away, 484 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 2: not at this age, not the opportunity, and not the 485 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 2: fact that they're both gonna be starters and really no 486 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 2: ways good well. 487 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,639 Speaker 3: Especially you know, it's a weird thing too, and I 488 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 3: know this, like we always do this thing, but like 489 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 3: there's guys at Carlos Korea that are sitting out there. 490 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 3: We know exactly what we're getting from Carlos Kre and 491 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 3: I'm not trying to down talk it. 492 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: Seventy five games, Yeah, well you're. 493 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 3: Gonna get twenty homers, you know, seventy five, seventy five 494 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 3: blah blah blah. But it's like there's no stolen base upside. 495 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 3: Neto can outperform Carlos Korea just by playing throughout the year. 496 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 1: Like there's many games. 497 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there's a toll. 498 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 1: Faver opportunity that Tovar can do the same thing. 499 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, Jeremy Payannia, other ones these are guy Jeremy Paynea 500 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 3: Carlos career. Going ahead of both of these guys, I 501 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 3: think Nedo can easily overpass them statistically. Tovar is already 502 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 3: kind of like designed to be there. 503 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 1: There. 504 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 3: These shortstops I think were the big easy ones for 505 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 3: us to pick. 506 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 2: All right, My outfielders might have been a little easy here. 507 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 2: In fact, my guy was at one ninety nine. The 508 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 2: first one gonna talk about is Jared Durant, who I 509 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 2: know Welsh has talked about him a lot. 510 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,360 Speaker 3: I would have talked about him today. 511 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 2: Outside of but he was already a your breakouts. Yeah, 512 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 2: so like you can't be the breakout in the sleeper 513 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 2: like I mean that maybe it can be. 514 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,479 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I'm with you. I'm I'm holding 515 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 1: hands with you. 516 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 2: On the Jared Duran thing because over one hundred and 517 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 2: two games last year, Duran showed you that if he 518 00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 2: plays a full season, he is a potential fifteen thirty guy. 519 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 2: And he hit for two to ninety five batting average, 520 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,120 Speaker 2: So the batting average is going to be there. So 521 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 2: this is potentially a five category player that you're getting 522 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 2: around pick two hundred in the outfield and outfield is tough. 523 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 2: It is not great. It's funny Welsh. As I'm looking 524 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 2: at this, we just did our underdog draft right If 525 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 2: you want to see that, go check it out. 526 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:20,679 Speaker 1: We're doing a best Ball draft on Underdog on one 527 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: of the shows. 528 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 2: We just record him, Tovar Drury, and Jared Durant all 529 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 2: on that roster, all being undervalued and best Ball undervalued 530 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 2: in regular drafts too. 531 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:32,199 Speaker 1: If you tell me, this is. 532 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 2: A player that's gonna score one hundred runs and is 533 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 2: going to hit at the top of the order for 534 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 2: the Red Sox and is going to be a potential 535 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 2: player that's gonna give you a fifteen thirty and a 536 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 2: high batting average. Why the hell is he being drafted 537 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 2: so late? I just don't understand it. So for me, 538 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 2: this is another player that I'm all in on, and 539 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,159 Speaker 2: another guy too, especially in points leagues, Jung Hulee of 540 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 2: the San Francisco Giants at two twelve. To me, this 541 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 2: is a guy who could challenge for the batting title again, 542 00:23:58,080 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 2: just like Duran hitting at the top of the order. 543 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 2: So this is a player that you want pieces of, 544 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 2: you want to be in on Lee. 545 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: He's going to be hitting at the very top of 546 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: the San Francisco order. 547 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 2: He's gonna have run potential, batting average potential, he's got 548 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 2: some pop. 549 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: Is that the greatest home ballpark? 550 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 4: No? 551 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 2: But I think it offsets a little bit. At the 552 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 2: same time, I think the unknown factor with Lee is 553 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 2: scaring some people off, and I don't think it should. 554 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 2: When you watch this guy play and you watch him 555 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 2: in spring, he's flashing some power in the spring so far. 556 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 2: This is one of these guys where spring training matters 557 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 2: as well as we always say this, like spring training 558 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 2: doesn't matter except for the guys that it matters for, 559 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: and Lee's one of these guys. For me, I wanted 560 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 2: to see how he's hitting some major league pitching. What 561 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 2: does he look like here? 562 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 1: Is he overmatched? And the answer is no, He's not 563 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 1: overmatched at all. 564 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 2: So Lee and Duran are two guys that are going 565 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 2: late in the outfield that I love. Now you've picked 566 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 2: two guys that are going even later, which I love, 567 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 2: one of which I need you to sell me on 568 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 2: because I'm almost there with the first one. And the 569 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 2: second one I think is one that's gonna blow a 570 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 2: lot of people's minds. So let's talk about your two 571 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 2: sleeper outfielders for twenty four. 572 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, so there have been two late outfielders. I'm targeting 573 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 3: every drought. There's lots of outfielders I like this year. 574 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 3: We've talked to of done videos like Riley Green and stuff. 575 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 3: When we go later. There's two guys, Jared Durant, who 576 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 3: you mentioned, and Jared Kelnick. So double Jay's Double j 577 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 3: not Jeff Jared, but Jared Durant. 578 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: And joy Le bad country music. 579 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 3: But Jared Kelnick. Jared Kelnick is the guy. So last season, 580 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 3: Kelnick was kind of off to a you know, we 581 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,959 Speaker 3: had this whole big thing. Eleven homers, threw three hundred 582 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,719 Speaker 3: at bats, hit around two point fifty. He was stealing 583 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 3: a bunch eleven stolen bases in that first run. Then 584 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 3: he gets hurt, comes back power Zapp stops stealing. He 585 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 3: was hitting for contact. He had two eighty eight posts 586 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 3: all Star break in around sixty at bats, which I 587 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 3: think then he got hurt after that. Actually maybe because 588 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 3: maybe I mix that up, but either way, that power 589 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 3: kind of zapped. Batting average went away. We saw who 590 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 3: Jared Kelnick was, and you're now going into a ballpark 591 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 3: where left handed hitters thrive way more. I mean he 592 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 3: was in Seattle, one of the worst ballpark factors out there. 593 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 3: I think he's a top ten ballpark factor for left 594 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 3: handed hitters. For Jared Klnick, who has been bareling the 595 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,920 Speaker 3: ball better, he's been stealing bases. The strikeouts are a problem. 596 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 3: That's always something that we've got to consider. But a 597 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 3: two sixty four expected batting average overall is great, one 598 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 3: twelve MAXIV solid, double digit barrel percentage. Good, he's getting 599 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 3: the ball in the air. It was in the tens. 600 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 3: These are things that you can build off of into 601 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 3: a huge, big offensive lineup in Atlanta that is going 602 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 3: to support him overall. Hitting six or seven in Atlanta 603 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 3: is like that Dodger situation. 604 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 1: Is that point? 605 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like you drop him into the Braves offense, like 606 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 2: you gotta be real, JABRONI not to be good in 607 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 2: the Braves offense, like you're gonna produce something, Just just 608 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 2: make some contact for goodness sake. But this is a 609 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 2: really interesting move. Keep talking about Kelnick. 610 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, and also, I mean he destroyed fastballs last year 611 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 3: ninety two. EV hit two ninety two with a two 612 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 3: eighty two expected batting average. Though the batting average wasn't 613 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 3: great against breaking an off speed. The expected batting average 614 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 3: thirty nine and two sixty seven was good. He's becoming 615 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 3: a better hitter. I think he's going twenty twenty this year. 616 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 3: That's where I think Kelnick is gonna go. You're gonna 617 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 3: get more offensive opportunities, even hitting six, seven or eight 618 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 3: in Atlanta because that offense turns over even more and 619 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,400 Speaker 3: you're out of the platoon stuff. So I love Jared Kelnick. 620 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 3: He's one of my main targets sole and bases power. 621 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 3: The other guy is a guy that might get some 622 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 3: leadoff opportunity or hitting high in the in the lineup 623 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 3: as well. One of the deepest guys in here, well 624 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 3: out outside the top three hundred. And it's not Riley 625 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 3: Green with the Tigers, it's Parker Meadows. This is another 626 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 3: twenty twenty guy. I say a lot of some of 627 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 3: the same stats. Sometimes that could be annoying to people, 628 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 3: but it's things you're looking for, big breakouts, nine percent 629 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 3: barrel percentage, you're closing into the double digit percentage gets 630 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 3: the ball in the air. Last year he had an 631 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 3: eighteen degree launch angle. It's one of the highest, probably 632 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 3: for any outfielder but one of the highers in the 633 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 3: league expected batting average two point fifty part hit percentage 634 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 3: moving up a little bit. This is a solid bat 635 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 3: and he is a power speed threat. I actually think 636 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:04,119 Speaker 3: he could steal more bases than hit homers. But if 637 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 3: you get fifteen to twenty five out of a full season, 638 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:08,719 Speaker 3: I think that is in the cards. I think if 639 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,719 Speaker 3: he plays a full season, he's gonna put up twenty 640 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 3: stolen bases. And I'm going to take a look here 641 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,399 Speaker 3: over on We'll do ATC or do our buddy Ario 642 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,199 Speaker 3: Cohen where we've got a great episode here if you 643 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 3: guys want to check out. And for Parker Meadows in 644 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty three games, they have fifteen stolen 645 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 3: bases and thirteen homers with a low batting average of 646 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 3: two thirty. So you can start to project out if 647 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 3: he plays one hundred and fifty, you're gonna close in 648 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 3: on a twenty twenty. So both of the guys I 649 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 3: picked here are twenty twenty potential players, and that's what 650 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 3: I'm looking out of a lot of my depth in 651 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 3: the outfield. I'm trying to get big power bats early 652 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 3: on as much as i can, and then Jared and Durant, 653 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 3: Jared Kelnick, Parker, Meadows. These are some of my favorite 654 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 3: outfielders in those five outfielder formats to target. 655 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 2: Things starting to turn around for the Tigers a little 656 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 2: bit Welsh after all these years, we'll see, all right, 657 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 2: the starting pitcher as Welsh. Who are the two names 658 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 2: that you're targeting as sleepers in twenty four. 659 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 3: So number one, I've got Nick Pavetta, who I think 660 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 3: I've talked a little bit about. Thirty one. Yeah, thirty 661 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 3: one point two percent K percentage from July first on 662 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 3: Paveta had I think it was the number one K 663 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 3: percentage and he had the highest on the season, highest 664 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 3: on the season with increase of a starting pitcher overall. 665 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 3: With increase and Paveta has had a good spring, we're 666 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 3: seeing vlo upticks bodies there making that team even better. 667 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 3: He went a full mile per hour up on the fastball. 668 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 3: I think what they're going to be doing with pitchers 669 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 3: overall has been phenomenal. Paveta could hurt us, I suppose 670 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 3: in the long term, but the K percentage was like 671 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 3: elite without any crazy walk issues, and it might have 672 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 3: actually even been the K minus walk percentage. Which was 673 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 3: really high from July first on. He was an elite 674 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 3: strikeout option and now he's going to get the full 675 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 3: throes of it. Hopefully he stays healthy. I think he's 676 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 3: a big sleeper pick, and his ADP at one seventy 677 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 3: five has actually been moving up. But he's pitcher fifty one. 678 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 3: It's top thirty SP upside with the strikeouts. My other 679 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 3: one we've talked, we've talked to actually a decent amount. 680 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 3: I think in the underdog draft was TOADJ. Bradley and 681 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 3: Taj Bradley. With that confidence back, some uptick in spring 682 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 3: with the cutter working again, I think Taj Bradley is 683 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 3: in line for all the innings that he can have 684 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 3: this year, and I think he's he might be the 685 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 3: best pitcher, like overall pitcher, especially from a stuff perspective, 686 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 3: in that rotation and given the full confidence and without 687 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 3: many restrictions, I think Taj Bradley is going to have 688 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,239 Speaker 3: a big breakout this year. So Taj and Paveta are 689 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 3: my two sp sleepers, two. 690 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 2: Really good ones definitely there. And Bradley that's another one too. 691 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 2: I'm buying back in. You know, he was an elite 692 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 2: prospect last year we're all excited about. We were telling 693 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 2: everybody run to the waiver wire. Spengers need to get him. 694 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 2: It didn't work out. Okay, that doesn't mean he's a 695 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 2: bad pitcher. It means he's a young pitcher that still 696 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 2: has to learn. And it seems like he's been humbled 697 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 2: a little bit. Seems like he's put the work in 698 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 2: the off season so far the spring showing you some 699 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 2: much better versions of himself. The velocity, but I don't 700 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 2: know if you saw this Welsh he was sitting at 701 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 2: ninety six ninety six point four. 702 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 3: And he was ninety six point one last year, so 703 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 3: he's upticking a little bit. I mean, he got hit 704 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 3: hard last year, but I think that's something that decreased. 705 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 3: Like every single pitch he threw had a ninety or 706 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 3: higher exit velocity against. But that's rookie. That's rookie pitching. 707 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 3: I think with the tutelage, I'll be very curious to 708 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 3: see what changes happened. The cutter was the big, like 709 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 3: weird thing. I'll be curious to see if the split 710 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 3: finger comes up, because last year had the highest fifth 711 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 3: percentage over forty percent. If we see the split finger trend, 712 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 3: that's going on. If we see maybe that overtake the 713 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 3: cutter a little bit more. I think the Rays are 714 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 3: going to turn him into a bigger strikeout pitcher this season, 715 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 3: and that's going to be the focus, and I think 716 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 3: that's what's going to make him exceptionally better. 717 00:31:58,440 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: I do too. I'm excited about TODs. 718 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 2: I'm also excited about my two pictures on the list 719 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 2: at two three and two twenty two. The first one 720 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 2: is Brian Wu of the Seattle Mariners, a picture with 721 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 2: a live arm who had a spotty record I think 722 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 2: at times in some of the college baseball, but you've 723 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 2: seen what Seattle's been able to do out of him, 724 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 2: and in eighteen games last year, eighty seven innings, ninety 725 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 2: three strikeouts for him, he's got to trim the walk 726 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 2: rate just a little bit. 727 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: If he can do that, that's great. 728 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 2: A four to two to one era, Okay, you know 729 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 2: it's again rookie stuff, as we were alluding to before, 730 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 2: but a one two one whip. 731 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: And I think that Wu is. 732 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 2: One of these pictures you start to see what kind 733 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 2: of competitor he is. He's in the back end of 734 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 2: this rotation. It's a deep rotation. There's no pressure on 735 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 2: the kid. All he's got to do is just go 736 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 2: out the every fifth day. Give the Seattle Mariners a 737 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 2: chance to win. And I told you already in the 738 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 2: beginning of the show. I like the Mariners, So I 739 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 2: like the Mariners. I'm in on the Mariners. I want 740 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 2: the Mariners to, you know, continue to use this rotation 741 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 2: to get not even into the playoffs, but I think 742 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 2: they can go all the world, all the way to 743 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,239 Speaker 2: the World Series and maybe even win it this year. 744 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: I really do. 745 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 2: And Aaron Savaldi's the other guy in Tampa going at 746 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 2: two twenty two. If you look at Aaron Savally, it's 747 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 2: eerily similar of some of the earmarks of what we've 748 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 2: seen time and time again in Tampa, where they take 749 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 2: a guy who's kind of feels like a middling pitcher 750 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 2: who at time shows you better versions of himself. He 751 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 2: comes to Tampa and all of a sudden you get 752 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 2: the best version of him. If you look at Savally's 753 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 2: recent seasons, you see a guy who is, you know, 754 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 2: kind of under nine k per nine, somewhe around that 755 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 2: eight and a half range eight range nothing blown away 756 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 2: era floating round four. Go back and look at Zach 757 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 2: Eflin before last year. It's pretty much the same guy. 758 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: Statistically speaking, Can the. 759 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 2: Rays be the team that gets the most out of 760 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 2: Aaron Savali? I think the answer is one hundred percent yes. 761 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 2: Every year we've started to get smarter and smarter to 762 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 2: this Welsh where we say, oh, who are the Rays 763 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 2: signing this offseason? 764 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: That guy? 765 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, let me put him on the sleeper list, because 766 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 2: Zach Efflin was on this list last year, I believe, 767 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 2: or one of these lists we talked about, Hey sleeper pitchers. 768 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 2: Take a shot on Effln? Why because Tampa signed him? 769 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 2: And I'm gonna go back down to this well again 770 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 2: with Savally. 771 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 3: What's kind of funny about it is like these three 772 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 3: pit elementthropep there too, Pepio, Savally and Bradley. They're all 773 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 3: just cheap. I don't hate the idea of like taking 774 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 3: them all and figuring out because it is kind of 775 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 3: weird that you can't just throw all the raised pitchers 776 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 3: in and be like, hey, they're going to do this 777 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,760 Speaker 3: in this But the Rays have a system of picking, 778 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 3: like Pepio had some big stuff plus numbers, fastball you have. 779 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 3: You've seen Savally and what he can do with some 780 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 3: of his off speed stuff. And then it's like you 781 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 3: get one of the best organizations that manipulate some of 782 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 3: these players and has their hand into pitching development, and 783 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 3: they've taken these pieces in. All of these guys could 784 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 3: be great in different ways. Savally from a command perspective, 785 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 3: Pepio looks like a big strikeout guy. Bradley might be 786 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,799 Speaker 3: the best combination between them. It's just not bad to 787 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 3: bet on the same thing you did with the Mariners 788 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,240 Speaker 3: as well. You can't get a Mariner's pitcher really for cheap, 789 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 3: except for Wu and Bryce Miller, and I wouldn't hate 790 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 3: you for taking both of them Rays Mariners. The cheap 791 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 3: options that are going to be out there, I think 792 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 3: those are great just bets. Now, it's tough if you're 793 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 3: going to do a big capital on drafting a bunch 794 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 3: of them. But let's just arguably say, somehow you were 795 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,879 Speaker 3: able to get two of these Race pitchers and two 796 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 3: of those Mariner pitchers, you're probably giving yourself at least 797 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 3: a fifty percent chance for a player that is going 798 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,560 Speaker 3: to blow past the cost of what you put into them. 799 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 2: It's it's you know again, it's like buying more tickets 800 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 2: to the fifty to fifty raffle. You know he's just 801 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 2: like it's going to be there. 802 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 3: Well, I'm not sure that's the Have you ever known a. 803 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,279 Speaker 1: More than ones now happened? I've got proof. 804 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 3: I got that at a minor No, you'd at a 805 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 3: minor league game you did not win at like a. 806 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,280 Speaker 1: Well, you know who's winning in life, Welsh. 807 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 2: Anybody who watches our Fantasy Fest, which is coming up, 808 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 2: our third annual Fantasy pros MLB Fantasy Fest is happening 809 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 2: right here on the channel on Wednesday the thirteenth, from 810 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 2: four to eight pm Eastern four hour live stream me 811 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:50,280 Speaker 2: the Welsh.

Welsh. 842 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,600 Speaker 2: Let's get to our relief pitchers. That's all that's left 843 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 2: here on our list. So for me, this one's easy sometimes, 844 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:12,320 Speaker 2: you know me, I don't like to pay for saves. 845 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 2: So if SAMs just get away from me, Jose Leclerk 846 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 2: is the guy in Texas that got the boat on 847 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 2: them last year, Texas is still gonna be a very 848 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 2: competitive team. 849 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 1: And if Leaclerk isn't the guy. 850 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 2: And as the manager said, well, we haven't put names 851 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 2: and we don't want to put labels on guys right now, 852 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 2: we're not gonna. 853 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:28,720 Speaker 1: Label anybody anything. 854 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 2: Okay, fine, Well Robertson's there too, so it's gonna be 855 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 2: one of these guys. So you think Robertson, well your 856 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 2: very last pick, and you take Laclerk late, and you've 857 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 2: got all the saves in Texas, Welsh, I think it's 858 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 2: a very easy equation. 859 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,760 Speaker 1: Where are you going here for your saves? 860 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 2: Because the name on your list is the one I 861 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 2: was gonna put on mine. 862 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 1: But this one you nab before me. 863 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, So, like I agree with it you said about 864 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 3: closers in general, I like the cheap save guys. Laclerk 865 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 3: would be a player. But you know, if we're talking 866 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,840 Speaker 3: like sleepers, and we're talking upside. Matt Brash would have 867 00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 3: been a player I would have picked if he didn't 868 00:37:59,239 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 3: have this arm. 869 00:37:59,680 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 4: INNG. 870 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 3: The other obvious one is a guy that's qualifying as 871 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 3: a starting pitcher right now, and it's Mason Miller. So 872 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 3: that's who you were alluding to because of this insanely 873 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,520 Speaker 3: big fastball and the team said they want to commit 874 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 3: to him being like a reliever this year. They don't 875 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 3: want to hand him the job to be the closer 876 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 3: from day one. I think they want him to kind 877 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 3: of prove and work it. But this is a guy 878 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,280 Speaker 3: they kind of keep telling us these things with Mason Miller, 879 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,960 Speaker 3: and then it just bam, it explodes. I mean, we're 880 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 3: talking about a triple digits fastball pitcher who really I mean, 881 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 3: he throws a cutter, cutter and sliders can kind of 882 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,959 Speaker 3: be the same. It's kind of a slider fastball guy, 883 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 3: quintessential classic closer that they've already said they want to 884 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,280 Speaker 3: put him in. Here's the only problem. How many opportunities 885 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 3: are the a's actually going to have to say that's 886 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 3: a bigger question. But when given those opportunities, Mason Miller 887 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:49,800 Speaker 3: is going to thrive with it. He's going to strike 888 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:51,919 Speaker 3: out guys. He might have a couple of blow ups. 889 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 3: He is the closer of closers, and if the opportunity 890 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 3: happens early, Mason Miller might save twenty five to thirty 891 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 3: games and he would be a top ten closer. So 892 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,919 Speaker 3: you want to talk about a closer sleeper. I think 893 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 3: he is the number one quintessential player. But there is 894 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 3: risk in this pick because he could just be a 895 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 3: middle relief. 896 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 2: You know what, I don't think he's going to be 897 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 2: a middle relief. I think to keep him healthy, the 898 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:16,359 Speaker 2: best thing to do is give him that clean ninth inning. 899 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 2: And if the A's were a competitive team, might be 900 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 2: more concerned because I don't want Mason Miller working three 901 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,360 Speaker 2: or four days in a row closing out games. And 902 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 2: the A's are three or four games in a row, 903 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 2: that's not gonna be a problem. So in a lot 904 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 2: of ways, it's kind of the best case scenario. Make 905 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 2: him the closer. He's not a bad team. One or 906 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 2: two appearances a week, Okay, great, it's a great opportunity 907 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 2: for Mason Miller to be healthy, be productive. I think 908 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 2: it's the best case scenario for him. So just to 909 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 2: recap here. Here's our all sleeper teams. Welsh has Wilson 910 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:47,800 Speaker 2: contraresat catcher, Christian and Carnascio Strand at first, Luis Rangifo 911 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:52,440 Speaker 2: at second, Michael Garcia at third base, Zach Netto at third, 912 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,840 Speaker 2: excuse me at shortstop.
