0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:17.839
<v Speaker 1>you doing pretty well? I just sleep last night. I said, Wow,

0:01:17.840 --> 0:01:21.319
<v Speaker 1>it's so good, so great. I slept the right too.

0:01:21.480 --> 0:01:23.440
<v Speaker 1>I slept the right too. They's got the third pick.

0:01:23.480 --> 0:01:26.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you've heard the Nicks didn't win

0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:29.399
<v Speaker 1>the lottery, but didn't know when we were pressing the button.

0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Frank Yeah, we'll take off three. That's fine, that's perfectly fine.

0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:35.600
<v Speaker 1>Three player draft. Everyone's saying, oh, it's a one player draft.

0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:38.520
<v Speaker 1>Now I don't agree three, three player draft. Three. They's

0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:40.880
<v Speaker 1>got the third pick. Not terrible. Now we'll take it.

0:01:42.920 --> 0:01:46.199
<v Speaker 1>And he looked about it. Why why don't you tell me, Frank,

0:01:46.600 --> 0:01:50.880
<v Speaker 1>anything else going on? Not really in a singing mood today,

0:01:50.920 --> 0:01:53.200
<v Speaker 1>He didn't. He didn't start singing, not really in a

0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:55.800
<v Speaker 1>singing mood today. I have a feeling, Alex, we're gonna

0:01:55.800 --> 0:01:57.640
<v Speaker 1>need to move the camera. I have a feeling we're

0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:00.400
<v Speaker 1>gonna have to go to his shot right now. Yeah,

0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:03.920
<v Speaker 1>that's it, everybody. I'm just gonna preface this right now.

0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:05.520
<v Speaker 1>If you're listening on to Man and you don't want

0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:07.640
<v Speaker 1>to hear about the New York Jets or football, you

0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:10.560
<v Speaker 1>can fast forward about fifteen twenty minutes from now and

0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:12.560
<v Speaker 1>then we'll get into the baseball talking. For everyone else

0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:16.040
<v Speaker 1>listening live, I'm also sorry if you're here to hear

0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:18.280
<v Speaker 1>about baseball. We're gonna get into baseball at some point.

0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:20.840
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot going on, actually, some prospects, more prospects

0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.120
<v Speaker 1>getting called up, Lots to go over from last night.

0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:26.919
<v Speaker 1>But first we have to talk about the Jets in

0:02:27.080 --> 0:02:30.120
<v Speaker 1>the NFL, and this is a lesson for not just

0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:34.359
<v Speaker 1>any NFL franchise organization. Uh, it could be any sport.

0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:40.720
<v Speaker 1>The ineptitude, the incompetence of this franchise is laughable. It

0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:44.639
<v Speaker 1>is baffling. The Jets, if you haven't heard, have fired

0:02:44.680 --> 0:02:50.239
<v Speaker 1>their general manager Mike mcagnet after allowing him to higher

0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:53.720
<v Speaker 1>the head coach Adam Gaze, now the Instram general manager.

0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:57.840
<v Speaker 1>By the way, they allowed him to spend a boatload

0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:01.720
<v Speaker 1>of money. We're talking about me out the biggest contract,

0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:04.720
<v Speaker 1>biggest defensive contract in NFL history to C J. Mosley.

0:03:05.080 --> 0:03:08.079
<v Speaker 1>You signed Levian Bell two pretty big money as well.

0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:12.840
<v Speaker 1>He does all that, he makes their draft picks, all

0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:14.440
<v Speaker 1>is going well. I mean, you got a few reports

0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:16.680
<v Speaker 1>here and there during the draft. You don't believe him.

0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Mike mccagnet and Adam Gates are butting heads. I mean,

0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:22.840
<v Speaker 1>I think it happens at times, you know, in in

0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:27.440
<v Speaker 1>organizations and franchises where GM, the manager, the head coach,

0:03:27.680 --> 0:03:29.520
<v Speaker 1>one person might want to do one thing the other person.

0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:31.400
<v Speaker 1>I think that's all right. I think you have to

0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:35.000
<v Speaker 1>have some kind of dysfunction. You gotta you have to

0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 1>press the other person get the best out of them.

0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:40.720
<v Speaker 1>That's fine, we get a few reports, but you let

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:44.400
<v Speaker 1>Mike mccagnet do all of that and then you fired

0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:49.880
<v Speaker 1>him on May fift. This this is like Phil Jackson

0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:52.560
<v Speaker 1>and the Knicks all over again. You let this guy

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:55.240
<v Speaker 1>make a draft pick one of a pretty big draft.

0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:58.840
<v Speaker 1>Pick two was seventh eighth overall pick. He drafts Franknie

0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:03.280
<v Speaker 1>Lakina from France. You fire him a week later, Like

0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:06.000
<v Speaker 1>what is going on in New York sports? The Bills

0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:12.839
<v Speaker 1>are the most competent organization in New York football right now?

0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:16.120
<v Speaker 1>The Giants, Dave Gettleman, Daniel Jones. I mean, we already

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:18.000
<v Speaker 1>had that fiasco a month ago. Go back and watch

0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Greg's monologue about that. You hear Jim Day's thoughts, to

0:04:21.320 --> 0:04:23.719
<v Speaker 1>hear Chris Venturous thoughts on that too, And then we

0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:27.159
<v Speaker 1>get this today Mike mccagnet and the Jets and Adam Gaze.

0:04:27.600 --> 0:04:31.680
<v Speaker 1>Adam Gates said during his introductory presser that he had

0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:34.760
<v Speaker 1>control over the personnel when he was in Miami and

0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:37.479
<v Speaker 1>it was something he never wanted. It's something he doesn't

0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:40.919
<v Speaker 1>want now with the Jets, And he was lying the

0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:44.560
<v Speaker 1>entire time like, who is telling the truth here? What

0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:47.680
<v Speaker 1>is going on the ownership of the Jets. I mean

0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:50.760
<v Speaker 1>it all starts at the top, Woody Johnson, Chris Johnson,

0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:54.080
<v Speaker 1>whoever you want to look at here, because you allow

0:04:57.240 --> 0:05:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Adam Gates to take over now for the New York

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Jets the interim general manager. I'm sure they'll get some

0:05:02.080 --> 0:05:05.719
<v Speaker 1>other schmuck in here, but you allow him to take

0:05:05.720 --> 0:05:08.919
<v Speaker 1>over as the general manager. What has he done to

0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:12.160
<v Speaker 1>earn that, to earn that trust, to earn that role?

0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:16.560
<v Speaker 1>What has he done? He went in three seasons in Miami,

0:05:16.560 --> 0:05:19.720
<v Speaker 1>he was under five hundred in the a f C East,

0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:22.200
<v Speaker 1>and he got high. He got fired from a team

0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:24.640
<v Speaker 1>in the a f C East and got hired by

0:05:24.680 --> 0:05:27.200
<v Speaker 1>another team in the a f C East after doing

0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:30.719
<v Speaker 1>nothing to earn another head coaching job right away. A

0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:33.240
<v Speaker 1>lot of people had this guy pegged for an offensive

0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:37.799
<v Speaker 1>coordinator job after he got fired from Miami. The Jets

0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:41.920
<v Speaker 1>being the Jets, hire this guy to be their head

0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:46.040
<v Speaker 1>coach right after he got fired within the same division.

0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 1>And now on May they fired their general manager and

0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:56.279
<v Speaker 1>give this guy all the control. Like, I just I

0:05:56.320 --> 0:05:59.800
<v Speaker 1>don't understand what he's done to earn this he's done nothing.

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:04.120
<v Speaker 1>He's not a people person. You ran talented players out

0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:09.560
<v Speaker 1>of town, while in Miami j Hi, Jarvis Landry, you

0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:13.039
<v Speaker 1>get Levan Bell on this team, like and and now,

0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:17.080
<v Speaker 1>just the dysfunction continues to rot. It's gonna rot from

0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:19.919
<v Speaker 1>the inside out. Now, like the look at look at

0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:23.320
<v Speaker 1>the first couple of seasons that Sam Donald is going

0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:28.479
<v Speaker 1>to be in the NFL. He gets his first coach

0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:30.440
<v Speaker 1>checking away from him in Todd Bowls. He gets his

0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:33.039
<v Speaker 1>GM now gone, he has to deal with Adam Gaze,

0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:37.320
<v Speaker 1>crazy eyes, supposed to be a quarterback guru. The only

0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:40.760
<v Speaker 1>quarterback he's ever done well with is Peyton Manning. All right,

0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:46.600
<v Speaker 1>he's Peyton Manning. I don't know, I don't know what

0:06:46.680 --> 0:06:48.960
<v Speaker 1>he's done to earn this. And I don't even have

0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:51.400
<v Speaker 1>a problem with Mike mcagnet getting fired fired him the

0:06:51.480 --> 0:06:55.720
<v Speaker 1>day after the season ends. This is an ongoing dilemma

0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:59.240
<v Speaker 1>for the Jets. They are the laughing stock of football,

0:06:59.279 --> 0:07:02.599
<v Speaker 1>and rightfully so. They just set their organization back again

0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:05.920
<v Speaker 1>a whole another's cycle. Because this is what always happens

0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:08.760
<v Speaker 1>with the Jets. They fire a coach, they let the

0:07:08.800 --> 0:07:12.280
<v Speaker 1>GM choose the next coach, and then they fire the GM,

0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:14.360
<v Speaker 1>and then a new GM has to come in and

0:07:14.440 --> 0:07:17.480
<v Speaker 1>has a coach from the previous regime who he doesn't

0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:20.880
<v Speaker 1>even want or want anything to do with. So now

0:07:21.000 --> 0:07:24.040
<v Speaker 1>the Jets were getting reports that they're looking into Eagles

0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:27.040
<v Speaker 1>vice president of player personnel something like that. Do you

0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:28.800
<v Speaker 1>think this guy is gonna come in and want Adam

0:07:28.920 --> 0:07:32.600
<v Speaker 1>Gaze as his head coach? If this guy has an

0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:36.280
<v Speaker 1>ounce of competence, he doesn't want Adam Gates as his

0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:39.600
<v Speaker 1>head coach. No other team in the NFL wanted Adam

0:07:39.640 --> 0:07:44.000
<v Speaker 1>Gaze as their head coach, and the one team that did,

0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:46.400
<v Speaker 1>the one general manager or I guess it was maybe

0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:48.000
<v Speaker 1>it was over his head, maybe it was the owners.

0:07:48.200 --> 0:07:50.400
<v Speaker 1>The owners, they got a call from Peyton Manning. Peyton

0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:54.920
<v Speaker 1>Manning is vouching for this guy. I mean, dude, what like,

0:07:55.680 --> 0:07:57.800
<v Speaker 1>what did Adam Gays do for Peyton Manning that this

0:07:57.800 --> 0:08:00.320
<v Speaker 1>guy is getting him jobs left and right. I mean

0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:03.000
<v Speaker 1>there has to be something behind the scene, like what

0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:06.840
<v Speaker 1>did he do? I just don't get it. Like Peyton

0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:09.200
<v Speaker 1>Manning calls you, you're an owner of a franchise, and

0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:12.520
<v Speaker 1>he says, look, I vouched for Adam Gaze. He's a

0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:16.720
<v Speaker 1>good guy. He deserves a job. That's it. And then,

0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:20.000
<v Speaker 1>like you hire the head coach of your franchise, the

0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:23.120
<v Speaker 1>guy that's gonna coach up, Sam Donald, We're supposed to

0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:25.720
<v Speaker 1>be your franchise quarterback. And you know, over the last

0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:28.040
<v Speaker 1>month of the season last year, look like he might

0:08:28.080 --> 0:08:31.520
<v Speaker 1>be a pretty good franchise quarterback. You bring this guy in,

0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Adam Gates because Peyton Manning voups for him. That's it.

0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:36.040
<v Speaker 1>That's all it takes. Heyton man how about we look

0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:39.600
<v Speaker 1>at the resume what he's done. He hasn't developed any quarterbacks.

0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:43.360
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna tell me, oh, well, Ryan Tannehill was always hurt,

0:08:44.440 --> 0:08:46.240
<v Speaker 1>so then why they draft Ryan Tanni will go out

0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:49.920
<v Speaker 1>and get the guy that you want. You were essentially

0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:52.800
<v Speaker 1>the GM of the Miami Dolphins. Go out and get

0:08:52.800 --> 0:08:58.160
<v Speaker 1>your guy. And now and now Sam Donald has to

0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:00.120
<v Speaker 1>go through all this, and in a couple of years,

0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Adam Gates is gonna be fired, and then the GM

0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:05.280
<v Speaker 1>is gonna bring in a new head coach, and then

0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:08.320
<v Speaker 1>the GM is gonna get fired, and then they're gonna

0:09:08.320 --> 0:09:10.440
<v Speaker 1>bring in another GM who who didn't even want that

0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:14.000
<v Speaker 1>head coach's You see how this works. It's a revolving

0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:18.120
<v Speaker 1>door for the New York Jets. Just incompetence after incompetent.

0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:23.240
<v Speaker 1>It happens NonStop. This this franchise is a joke. There's

0:09:23.280 --> 0:09:29.120
<v Speaker 1>a reason why they haven't won since they're the laughing

0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:34.240
<v Speaker 1>stock of the NFL. Cleveland Browns no more. He's laughing

0:09:34.240 --> 0:09:36.480
<v Speaker 1>in his seat right now seeing what's going on with

0:09:36.480 --> 0:09:39.160
<v Speaker 1>the New York Jets. Are you serious? He's the GM

0:09:39.160 --> 0:09:42.120
<v Speaker 1>that should have been fired. And again, I don't even

0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:44.640
<v Speaker 1>have a problem with Mike mcagnet going, but do it

0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:48.320
<v Speaker 1>the day after the season ends, bringing a whole new regime.

0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:55.040
<v Speaker 1>It's just ridiculous, man, It's absolutely ridiculous. How can you

0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:57.360
<v Speaker 1>sell anything to this to this fan base right now?

0:09:57.760 --> 0:10:02.440
<v Speaker 1>How it just doesn't make any sense. You can't like

0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:05.160
<v Speaker 1>if every Jets fan wanted to jump ship right now,

0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:07.839
<v Speaker 1>I have, I have no problem with it. Everyone, Well,

0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:10.240
<v Speaker 1>you have to stick by your franchise. Well why do

0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:12.120
<v Speaker 1>you have to stick by your franchise when they continue

0:10:12.160 --> 0:10:15.640
<v Speaker 1>to show you this level of incompetence. That's what I ask,

0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:19.680
<v Speaker 1>because I do agree to a certain level, you should

0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:24.040
<v Speaker 1>stick by your franchise well, time and time and time again,

0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:28.120
<v Speaker 1>the ownership lets you down. The management lets you down,

0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:32.040
<v Speaker 1>the coaching lets you down. And I've only been on

0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:35.320
<v Speaker 1>this earth for twenty seven years. Imagine the Jets fans

0:10:35.320 --> 0:10:38.560
<v Speaker 1>that are fifty years old. They've seen this for way

0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:44.120
<v Speaker 1>longer than I've been alive. At some level, at some point,

0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:51.160
<v Speaker 1>you have to break the wheel. It doesn't look like

0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:52.800
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna happen now, and it doesn't look like it's

0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:55.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna happen anytime soon either. When it comes to the

0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:57.760
<v Speaker 1>New York Jets, I just bought a Levy on Bell Jersey.

0:10:57.800 --> 0:10:59.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm probably gonna go on and burn it. What am

0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:02.920
<v Speaker 1>I gonna do that Levion bel Jersey. He's just signed here,

0:11:02.960 --> 0:11:04.719
<v Speaker 1>He's in the prime of his career. This team is

0:11:04.760 --> 0:11:07.600
<v Speaker 1>not gonna win games. I'm telling you that right now.

0:11:08.520 --> 0:11:11.480
<v Speaker 1>This level of dysfunction, it's going to rot the team

0:11:11.520 --> 0:11:16.480
<v Speaker 1>from the inside out. This team is not gonna win games.

0:11:18.640 --> 0:11:23.960
<v Speaker 1>I just sleep last night. Greg so woll Man good too.

0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:27.000
<v Speaker 1>I feel pretty good about Dave Gettiman and Daniel Jones.

0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:31.320
<v Speaker 1>Now they don't I think you should, you know, I

0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:33.120
<v Speaker 1>think the core of the problem. I would say there's

0:11:33.120 --> 0:11:35.480
<v Speaker 1>a lot because the Knicks, or comes to the Giants

0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:41.600
<v Speaker 1>is ownership getting involved. Ultimately, it's clear that ownership hired

0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Adam Gaves. As many people have pointed out to me

0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:46.800
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter. It's clear that ownership hired Todd Bowles as well,

0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:51.160
<v Speaker 1>and Mike mccagnan had his role and he didn't fit

0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:54.319
<v Speaker 1>in with the head coach that ultimately the owner chose.

0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:58.760
<v Speaker 1>So the owner said goodbye. Next show manager of the

0:11:58.800 --> 0:12:00.880
<v Speaker 1>New York just looks that. Even look at me, Joe Douglas,

0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:03.280
<v Speaker 1>who comes from the Eagles, he's close with Adam Gays.

0:12:03.360 --> 0:12:04.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how Adam Gay has got all this

0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:07.720
<v Speaker 1>power in the Jets organization so quickly after being in

0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:11.680
<v Speaker 1>charge of everything in the Miami Dolphins. This next GM

0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:17.680
<v Speaker 1>likes Adam Gays. That's the Adam Gates is basically like

0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:20.320
<v Speaker 1>a pseudo owner of the Jets right now. He runs

0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:23.400
<v Speaker 1>a team right now. What did he do to earn

0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:26.080
<v Speaker 1>this power? I just don't get it. You went twenty

0:12:26.120 --> 0:12:28.599
<v Speaker 1>three and twenty five and three seasons with the Dolphins,

0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:31.559
<v Speaker 1>and you hand this guy the keys to the organization.

0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:35.800
<v Speaker 1>He's the interim GM, and you now are going to

0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:40.320
<v Speaker 1>allow him to choose a GM of his liking. It's

0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:44.480
<v Speaker 1>gonna help keep him around longer. I just don't understand

0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:49.960
<v Speaker 1>what he's done to earn this level of power. People

0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:52.280
<v Speaker 1>were laughing at me downstairs when I said the Bills

0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:54.559
<v Speaker 1>are the most functional team, a New York team in

0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:58.839
<v Speaker 1>football right now. It's true. They have their quarterback of

0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:02.080
<v Speaker 1>the future. They just had a great draft. They had

0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:06.280
<v Speaker 1>an offseason where they surrounded said quarterback with great pieces,

0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:12.520
<v Speaker 1>with wide receivers, with Smokey Brown, with Cole Beasley, and

0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:15.640
<v Speaker 1>they and they signed offensive lineman, something the Jets should

0:13:15.640 --> 0:13:18.080
<v Speaker 1>have been doing. By the way they signed the center.

0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:21.040
<v Speaker 1>The Jets have like a second third string center right

0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:25.520
<v Speaker 1>now starting for their team. The Bills are making great moves.

0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Like if you're looking for the next team that's going

0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:32.040
<v Speaker 1>to test the Patriots, it's not the Jets. No, it's

0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:35.720
<v Speaker 1>not the Dolphins. It's the Bills. The Bills are doing

0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:39.120
<v Speaker 1>things the right way. I never thought i'd say those things,

0:13:39.160 --> 0:13:41.720
<v Speaker 1>but I mean, Gabe was absolutely right. If you're a

0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:43.920
<v Speaker 1>Bills fan, if you're a Dolphins fan, I mean, if

0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:45.720
<v Speaker 1>you're a Patriots fan, you've ben laughed at the Jets

0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:50.880
<v Speaker 1>for decades anyway, But you have to love the idea

0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:56.360
<v Speaker 1>of Adam Case running a franchise. He just edited in

0:13:56.400 --> 0:14:01.520
<v Speaker 1>Miami and he did nothing with it. This is the

0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:04.680
<v Speaker 1>Dolphins were actually on the precipice of a wild card

0:14:05.240 --> 0:14:08.520
<v Speaker 1>last year. They were seven and six and they lost

0:14:08.520 --> 0:14:12.800
<v Speaker 1>their final three games. Who was their coach? Adam Gaze?

0:14:14.480 --> 0:14:17.880
<v Speaker 1>I just, god, man, it's funny. It's sad. All I

0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:23.720
<v Speaker 1>could do is is laugh. Gosh. I just I don't

0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:25.240
<v Speaker 1>know what he's done, Greg, I don't know what he's

0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:28.760
<v Speaker 1>done to earn this. Like the only person that you

0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:31.440
<v Speaker 1>can give this type of power to and it makes

0:14:31.440 --> 0:14:35.400
<v Speaker 1>sense is Bill Belichick. It's Bill Belichick. I'll give Bill

0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:38.200
<v Speaker 1>Belichick this power. Let him run a franchise. Look at

0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:43.400
<v Speaker 1>his resume? What what is Adam Gates's resume? He helped

0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Jay Cutler for twenty three touchdowns one season. Here's the

0:14:48.640 --> 0:14:51.160
<v Speaker 1>keys of the organization. You helped Jay Cutler throw more

0:14:51.200 --> 0:14:55.160
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns and interceptions. You help Peyton Manning. Peyton Manning doesn't

0:14:55.160 --> 0:14:58.840
<v Speaker 1>need help. He's Peyton Manning. Oh maybe if you want

0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:00.960
<v Speaker 1>to bring in Peyton Manning as head coach, try something

0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:05.320
<v Speaker 1>different or GM, I mean maybe, then you have my attention.

0:15:05.440 --> 0:15:12.680
<v Speaker 1>Let's try something different here. Oh here's great for now?

0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Sure you can keep going. Man, I think I think

0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:18.880
<v Speaker 1>I've said it all. I don't. I don't know what

0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:23.200
<v Speaker 1>else is left to say, Like, this can't happen in sports, Man,

0:15:23.280 --> 0:15:26.360
<v Speaker 1>it can't. And it's it's not just a lesson for

0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Jets fans and and football fans and NFL fans. This

0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:37.840
<v Speaker 1>is a perfect lesson of what not to do in sports.

0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:42.800
<v Speaker 1>It's it's just perfect. Every team in sports should learn

0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:45.160
<v Speaker 1>from what the Jets are doing right now. You don't

0:15:45.160 --> 0:15:48.640
<v Speaker 1>allow a GM to spend money higher a head coach,

0:15:48.880 --> 0:15:53.360
<v Speaker 1>make draft picks, and then fire him, like, let's see

0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:55.120
<v Speaker 1>it out for a year at least at this point.

0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:58.480
<v Speaker 1>You don't let him do all those things. If it sucks,

0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:00.560
<v Speaker 1>if it if it goes to crap this year, fire

0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:03.760
<v Speaker 1>both next year. I don't one and done with Adam Gates.

0:16:03.800 --> 0:16:05.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't care. I mean, we just had it with

0:16:05.760 --> 0:16:10.600
<v Speaker 1>Steve Wilks in Arizona. I don't mind if the Jets

0:16:10.640 --> 0:16:13.520
<v Speaker 1>go six and ten this year, fire mccagnet, Fire Adam

0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:14.800
<v Speaker 1>Gates at the end of the season. I don't have

0:16:14.840 --> 0:16:16.640
<v Speaker 1>a problem with that, and I'm sure a lot of

0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:18.600
<v Speaker 1>people will, Well, you gotta give them more than a year. No,

0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:22.480
<v Speaker 1>when you clean house, you clean house, you get rid

0:16:22.520 --> 0:16:25.680
<v Speaker 1>of a GM. You're bringing a GM and a coach together.

0:16:25.920 --> 0:16:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Look at what the forty Niners did a couple of

0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:31.360
<v Speaker 1>years ago. They're bringing Lynch, they bring Shanahan together. That's

0:16:31.360 --> 0:16:33.400
<v Speaker 1>what That's the way you're supposed to do things. Not

0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:35.640
<v Speaker 1>that the forty Niners have lived up to expectations yet,

0:16:36.160 --> 0:16:38.000
<v Speaker 1>but it looks like they're building a pretty good team there.

0:16:39.280 --> 0:16:43.320
<v Speaker 1>It looks like they have a level of functionality. That's

0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:46.800
<v Speaker 1>how you're supposed to do it. You don't fire GM,

0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:51.680
<v Speaker 1>promote head coach, fire coach bringing you GM. You don't

0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:55.160
<v Speaker 1>do that. That's how you continue to suck for as

0:16:55.200 --> 0:17:01.240
<v Speaker 1>long as you have. That's get off my lawd go

0:19:02.880 --> 0:19:05.359
<v Speaker 1>never have taken. Who's gonna who was being looked at

0:19:05.359 --> 0:19:08.000
<v Speaker 1>as a tight end from some franchises? Are you expected

0:19:08.040 --> 0:19:09.480
<v Speaker 1>to like that for the next ten years as a

0:19:09.520 --> 0:19:11.440
<v Speaker 1>giant PAIRD you can do what you want, but then

<v Speaker 1>back here live on the Fantasy Best Friends Forever, Frankie Stanford,

0:19:34.320 --> 0:19:41.240
<v Speaker 1>very Susan. We're hanging out here, frank Are you feeling man,

0:19:42.440 --> 0:19:45.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm all right, Greig, Okay, Yeah, I'm I'm all right

0:19:45.560 --> 0:19:47.720
<v Speaker 1>with it. I knew that the next couple of years

0:19:47.760 --> 0:19:49.399
<v Speaker 1>we're going to be a disaster anyway. I mean, if

0:19:49.400 --> 0:19:52.720
<v Speaker 1>you saw my initial reaction when they signed Adam Gaze,

0:19:54.800 --> 0:19:56.320
<v Speaker 1>you should know how I feel about it already. So

0:19:56.359 --> 0:19:57.959
<v Speaker 1>I knew the next couple of years were already going

0:19:57.960 --> 0:20:02.040
<v Speaker 1>to be a disaster. So I'm not really surprised. Basically,

0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:04.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm just I'm a fantasy football fantatist. That's what it

0:20:04.640 --> 0:20:07.359
<v Speaker 1>comes down to. You. From my fantasy players. I'm runing

0:20:07.359 --> 0:20:09.919
<v Speaker 1>for Sam Donald. I really want Sam Donald to do well.

0:20:09.920 --> 0:20:14.359
<v Speaker 1>But anything that happens from here on out will not

0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:16.720
<v Speaker 1>surprise me when it comes to this franchise. And I'm

0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:19.639
<v Speaker 1>honestly expecting the worst. And that's not just because I

0:20:19.720 --> 0:20:22.160
<v Speaker 1>normally expect the worst, Greig and hope for the best.

0:20:22.880 --> 0:20:26.639
<v Speaker 1>But I think it's coming. I think the writing is

0:20:26.680 --> 0:20:31.040
<v Speaker 1>on the wall here for the Jets. All right, it's over. Now.

0:20:31.760 --> 0:20:34.720
<v Speaker 1>We have Fantasy Baseball, we have the Knicks. We're gonna

0:20:34.800 --> 0:20:37.040
<v Speaker 1>draft r J. Barrett. That's cool. Or maybe they won't,

0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:38.840
<v Speaker 1>or maybe they'll trade in Franthony Davis. I guess we'll

0:20:38.840 --> 0:20:45.239
<v Speaker 1>find out soon enough. The lottery last night from New

0:20:45.320 --> 0:20:50.040
<v Speaker 1>York Knicks, I don't want badly it went. It's not

0:20:50.160 --> 0:20:52.880
<v Speaker 1>as great as it could have. My range of emotions

0:20:52.960 --> 0:20:56.919
<v Speaker 1>last night, We're wild man we're watching, had a lottery

0:20:56.960 --> 0:20:59.320
<v Speaker 1>on and all we wanted is Nick Fans were things

0:20:59.400 --> 0:21:02.000
<v Speaker 1>just to go in order, right, We wanted no changes,

0:21:02.280 --> 0:21:05.720
<v Speaker 1>things just go nice in order as they should, and

0:21:05.760 --> 0:21:11.200
<v Speaker 1>they didn't. And they didn't. And when you saw at

0:21:11.280 --> 0:21:16.840
<v Speaker 1>five at six and seven Cleveland and Phoenix, he was

0:21:16.880 --> 0:21:21.000
<v Speaker 1>just like, oh my god, Oh my God for Phoenix

0:21:21.000 --> 0:21:23.840
<v Speaker 1>in Atlanta. Rather at six and seven, you're like, oh

0:21:23.880 --> 0:21:26.600
<v Speaker 1>my god. And then five and you just sat there

0:21:26.600 --> 0:21:32.359
<v Speaker 1>and you just crossed your fingers and five comes and

0:21:32.400 --> 0:21:37.280
<v Speaker 1>they announced that five was Cleveland. Right, I'm just like

0:21:40.920 --> 0:21:45.800
<v Speaker 1>massive sigh of releaf. I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, running

0:21:45.800 --> 0:21:48.439
<v Speaker 1>around my apartment. I wish I could have my fiance

0:21:48.560 --> 0:21:52.000
<v Speaker 1>cold and so she could give you my reaction. You've

0:21:52.040 --> 0:21:55.000
<v Speaker 1>never seen me so excited. My fiance says, what do

0:21:55.040 --> 0:21:57.920
<v Speaker 1>you stop screaming? What are you jumping up and down

0:21:57.960 --> 0:22:00.719
<v Speaker 1>like a little kid, like, knees to my check, jumping up,

0:22:00.800 --> 0:22:05.280
<v Speaker 1>knees to my chest, this pumping screaming. Once they got

0:22:05.320 --> 0:22:11.240
<v Speaker 1>past the fifth pick, Good times, Greg, good times. Also,

0:22:11.280 --> 0:22:13.280
<v Speaker 1>poor sons, you're right about that. For people saying poor

0:22:13.320 --> 0:22:19.360
<v Speaker 1>poor sons here, you're absolutely right, man, Chris Welsh, sorry, buddy,

0:22:19.720 --> 0:22:22.440
<v Speaker 1>meeting sons. You have to short end of the stick here.

0:22:22.480 --> 0:22:24.680
<v Speaker 1>But this is what the NBA wants. The NBA doesn't

0:22:24.680 --> 0:22:26.480
<v Speaker 1>want teams to be able to tank and just get

0:22:26.520 --> 0:22:28.600
<v Speaker 1>the best picks. So, and we saw a few people

0:22:28.600 --> 0:22:31.000
<v Speaker 1>tweeting about it last night. Whody Gobert said, this is

0:22:31.000 --> 0:22:33.400
<v Speaker 1>the end of tanking, and that's a good thing for basketball,

0:22:33.960 --> 0:22:37.320
<v Speaker 1>and I can't really disagree with that. This is what's

0:22:37.320 --> 0:22:41.119
<v Speaker 1>better for basketball. It sucks for the teams that went

0:22:41.200 --> 0:22:44.440
<v Speaker 1>through a whole season of winning like twenty games or less.

0:22:45.359 --> 0:22:47.840
<v Speaker 1>What this is what the NBA wants. It's gonna make

0:22:47.840 --> 0:22:50.040
<v Speaker 1>it a little bit more random now, so we'll see

0:22:50.080 --> 0:22:52.159
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna have to try You're gonna this is what

0:22:52.200 --> 0:22:53.800
<v Speaker 1>I thought of last night, Greig. You're either gonna have

0:22:53.840 --> 0:22:56.760
<v Speaker 1>to put more effort in as a team that's on

0:22:56.840 --> 0:23:00.880
<v Speaker 1>the precipice and like developing your players, or you continue

0:23:00.920 --> 0:23:04.119
<v Speaker 1>to trade your players for more lottery draft picks so

0:23:04.200 --> 0:23:07.720
<v Speaker 1>you have more of a chance of randomly moving up.

0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:10.920
<v Speaker 1>Because as we saw last night, it's all it's pretty

0:23:10.960 --> 0:23:13.280
<v Speaker 1>much random at this point. For the Pelicans to move

0:23:13.359 --> 0:23:14.680
<v Speaker 1>up as much as they did, for the cast to

0:23:14.720 --> 0:23:18.119
<v Speaker 1>move up as much as they did, it's it's pretty

0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:20.520
<v Speaker 1>much random. So that's what's gonna happen now in the NBA.

0:23:21.080 --> 0:23:24.440
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna have to put a fast track on developing

0:23:24.440 --> 0:23:28.520
<v Speaker 1>your players and try and turn your franchise around a

0:23:28.520 --> 0:23:31.320
<v Speaker 1>little bit more quicker, or you're gonna see teams start

0:23:31.320 --> 0:23:35.680
<v Speaker 1>to trade more of their mid level players for draft

0:23:35.720 --> 0:23:37.800
<v Speaker 1>picks in order to get more shots in the lottery.

0:23:38.400 --> 0:23:41.120
<v Speaker 1>That's what it's gonna come. I totally agree that that's

0:23:41.119 --> 0:23:43.360
<v Speaker 1>where the lottery is headed. If last night is any indication,

0:23:43.400 --> 0:23:45.399
<v Speaker 1>I realized it was the first one under the new rules,

0:23:45.800 --> 0:23:48.120
<v Speaker 1>but there should be a lot more protections on those

0:23:48.160 --> 0:23:50.600
<v Speaker 1>lottery picks, and people are gonna want more chances in there.

0:23:51.000 --> 0:23:52.879
<v Speaker 1>When the Nicks with finished with the worst record of

0:23:52.880 --> 0:23:56.040
<v Speaker 1>the NBA have a four team percent chance and then

0:23:56.080 --> 0:23:57.600
<v Speaker 1>the Pelicans who were in the second round just a

0:23:57.640 --> 0:23:59.800
<v Speaker 1>year or two ago had a six percent chance, and

0:23:59.840 --> 0:24:03.639
<v Speaker 1>that's not that bigly difference. I think the Lakers have

0:24:03.680 --> 0:24:05.760
<v Speaker 1>like a four percent chance of getting the fourth overall pick,

0:24:05.800 --> 0:24:10.840
<v Speaker 1>and that's what they got, and it's good for them,

0:24:10.880 --> 0:24:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Like they get to move up and they have more

0:24:12.240 --> 0:24:16.800
<v Speaker 1>ammunition now to trade for Anthony Davis whatever. That's fine.

0:24:17.560 --> 0:24:19.320
<v Speaker 1>Like if they would have jumped into the top three,

0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:21.399
<v Speaker 1>that would have just been you know, I think on

0:24:21.440 --> 0:24:23.159
<v Speaker 1>everyone today would have been saying, all right, well, this

0:24:23.240 --> 0:24:25.159
<v Speaker 1>is still raged because how do the Lakers getting the

0:24:25.160 --> 0:24:27.560
<v Speaker 1>top three? Oh, Lebron doesn't make the playoffs one year,

0:24:27.600 --> 0:24:29.960
<v Speaker 1>the Lakers getting the top three. But I really do

0:24:30.040 --> 0:24:31.920
<v Speaker 1>think that this is a three player draft. And that's

0:24:31.960 --> 0:24:33.639
<v Speaker 1>not to say anything bad about the players that are

0:24:33.640 --> 0:24:36.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna go four or five. They could all be really good.

0:24:36.880 --> 0:24:38.480
<v Speaker 1>They might turn out to be better than the players

0:24:38.560 --> 0:24:40.360
<v Speaker 1>drafting in the top three. But I think if you're

0:24:40.359 --> 0:24:42.320
<v Speaker 1>looking at the way that this draft is being shaped

0:24:42.400 --> 0:24:44.439
<v Speaker 1>up so far, Greg, it looks like it is a

0:24:44.480 --> 0:24:46.920
<v Speaker 1>three player draft. You know which three players are gonna

0:24:46.920 --> 0:24:48.960
<v Speaker 1>go in the top three, maybe not what order. You

0:24:48.960 --> 0:24:50.879
<v Speaker 1>know Zion is going one. You don't know if Morant

0:24:50.960 --> 0:24:53.119
<v Speaker 1>or Barrett is going to I would lean towards Morant.

0:24:53.359 --> 0:24:55.320
<v Speaker 1>We'll have more on that later with our with our

0:24:55.320 --> 0:24:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Fandel hurry up videos. But it's a three player draft

0:25:00.119 --> 0:25:01.560
<v Speaker 1>and that we know which players are going in the

0:25:01.600 --> 0:25:04.159
<v Speaker 1>top three. I don't think that's so bad. Like I

0:25:04.200 --> 0:25:06.560
<v Speaker 1>had people freaking out to me yesterday, texting me, we

0:25:06.680 --> 0:25:09.280
<v Speaker 1>needed Zion. We suffered through the whole season, we didn't

0:25:09.280 --> 0:25:12.320
<v Speaker 1>get the first overall pick. Well, then the Knicks should

0:25:12.320 --> 0:25:14.480
<v Speaker 1>have known coming into the season that this is the

0:25:14.560 --> 0:25:17.040
<v Speaker 1>way that the lottery is now, and they shouldn't have

0:25:17.200 --> 0:25:20.000
<v Speaker 1>purposely tried to tank, Like you should have known that

0:25:20.119 --> 0:25:21.800
<v Speaker 1>this was the way that things were gonna be, So

0:25:22.400 --> 0:25:25.000
<v Speaker 1>you have no one to blame but yourself. Hey Frank, Greg,

0:25:26.800 --> 0:25:29.400
<v Speaker 1>I know, I know what you guys are saying. Um,

0:25:29.600 --> 0:25:31.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that the Knicks tanked on purpose. I

0:25:31.520 --> 0:25:36.240
<v Speaker 1>just think they really suck. No, I don't know what

0:25:36.280 --> 0:25:39.480
<v Speaker 1>they just there were games where they just weren't playing

0:25:39.520 --> 0:25:43.439
<v Speaker 1>their best players down the stretcher. They do you can

0:25:43.480 --> 0:25:45.959
<v Speaker 1>ask you can you can say that they were developing players.

0:25:46.000 --> 0:25:48.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't have a problem playing all your young players,

0:25:48.040 --> 0:25:50.240
<v Speaker 1>but there were times where you could see where I mean,

0:25:50.359 --> 0:25:53.000
<v Speaker 1>rotations would change for no reason. Greg, we spoke about

0:25:53.000 --> 0:25:54.919
<v Speaker 1>this every day, Like there would be players that like

0:25:54.960 --> 0:25:57.119
<v Speaker 1>Mario Hazona would start to get going next day he's

0:25:57.119 --> 0:25:59.359
<v Speaker 1>out of the rotation. Lucarnett would start to get going

0:25:59.400 --> 0:26:01.960
<v Speaker 1>next day he's at the rotation. So it just seems

0:26:02.040 --> 0:26:04.040
<v Speaker 1>very odd the way that everything went down. And I

0:26:04.119 --> 0:26:05.760
<v Speaker 1>still I still think the jury is kind of out

0:26:05.800 --> 0:26:07.359
<v Speaker 1>on David Fitz. I don't even think if any I

0:26:07.359 --> 0:26:09.120
<v Speaker 1>don't think anyone knows that he's actually a good coach

0:26:09.200 --> 0:26:10.760
<v Speaker 1>or not. No, I have no idea. I mean, last

0:26:10.800 --> 0:26:15.439
<v Speaker 1>night is no indication at all. I don't have a

0:26:15.440 --> 0:26:17.320
<v Speaker 1>problem with the Knicks ending up with R. J. Barrett,

0:26:19.400 --> 0:26:21.760
<v Speaker 1>so that's the other thing. So anyway, so once they

0:26:21.840 --> 0:26:25.440
<v Speaker 1>get inside of the top three, you see the Lakers

0:26:25.480 --> 0:26:30.560
<v Speaker 1>get four, you like, breathing heavily, breathing heavily, can they survive?

0:26:30.680 --> 0:26:33.960
<v Speaker 1>Can they get one? Immediately they get three? And we're

0:26:33.960 --> 0:26:38.520
<v Speaker 1>just like great, but immediately telling myself and R. J. Barrett,

0:26:38.520 --> 0:26:40.960
<v Speaker 1>how like amazing he's gonna be And it could have

0:26:40.960 --> 0:26:45.600
<v Speaker 1>been worse. Girls so much so my thoughts, um my

0:26:45.720 --> 0:26:52.480
<v Speaker 1>thoughts then go like, will they actually wind up taking

0:26:52.560 --> 0:26:56.359
<v Speaker 1>the number three? Will they be making it? And the

0:26:56.440 --> 0:26:59.560
<v Speaker 1>same hold shoe for Lakers. I can assure you one

0:26:59.600 --> 0:27:03.480
<v Speaker 1>of those two teams will not make their pick, and

0:27:03.520 --> 0:27:07.800
<v Speaker 1>potentially both potentially exactly potentially both of them. Anthony Davis

0:27:07.800 --> 0:27:09.600
<v Speaker 1>is not the only star that's available for trade. Gregor

0:27:09.680 --> 0:27:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Bradley Beale is gonna be out there too. So if

0:27:12.080 --> 0:27:14.000
<v Speaker 1>the Knicks want to put together a package of R. G. D.

0:27:14.119 --> 0:27:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Barrett and and some draft picks to get Bradley Beale

0:27:16.760 --> 0:27:18.840
<v Speaker 1>and that brings them closer to getting a guy like

0:27:18.880 --> 0:27:22.120
<v Speaker 1>Kevin Durant to New York or even Kyrie Irving, I'm

0:27:22.160 --> 0:27:24.560
<v Speaker 1>fine with that. I'm fine with Bradley Beale to obviously,

0:27:24.600 --> 0:27:27.440
<v Speaker 1>Anthony Davis is the prize possession, but Bradley Beale's the

0:27:27.480 --> 0:27:30.440
<v Speaker 1>top player in the BNBA, top twenty five player in

0:27:30.480 --> 0:27:33.200
<v Speaker 1>the NBA. I wouldn't mind the Knicks trading for him either,

0:27:33.760 --> 0:27:35.320
<v Speaker 1>But I do think those are the two guys, or

0:27:35.320 --> 0:27:37.840
<v Speaker 1>maybe the Lakers trade for Bradley Beal. We'll see what happens,

0:27:37.880 --> 0:27:40.440
<v Speaker 1>but I do think one of those teams are trading

0:27:40.840 --> 0:27:45.000
<v Speaker 1>or potentially. I think it's a lock. The Lakers trade,

0:27:46.040 --> 0:27:49.160
<v Speaker 1>an absolute lock. It's not like Jared Culver like DeAndre

0:27:49.240 --> 0:27:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Hunters put the Lakers over the edge. I do think

0:27:52.160 --> 0:27:55.600
<v Speaker 1>that those guys could be helpful in their rookie seasons.

0:27:55.600 --> 0:27:58.520
<v Speaker 1>But we've seen this before. I mean, when Lebron came

0:27:58.520 --> 0:28:00.200
<v Speaker 1>back to the Calves, they had the first role pick.

0:28:00.240 --> 0:28:03.159
<v Speaker 1>They you know, they trade um Andrew Wiggins away to

0:28:03.160 --> 0:28:06.560
<v Speaker 1>get Kevin Love. So it's very clear. I mean, Lebron

0:28:06.760 --> 0:28:08.680
<v Speaker 1>is kind of on the back nine of his career.

0:28:08.760 --> 0:28:10.920
<v Speaker 1>He wants he needs to win now. He's like, he's

0:28:10.960 --> 0:28:14.960
<v Speaker 1>not in a spot where they can develop rookies. Though, yeah,

0:28:14.960 --> 0:28:16.760
<v Speaker 1>I would say it's more than likely they trade their pick.

0:28:18.520 --> 0:28:21.040
<v Speaker 1>The as you just said, Lebron and the Lakers are

0:28:21.040 --> 0:28:22.760
<v Speaker 1>in wind now though they have all these young players,

0:28:22.760 --> 0:28:26.359
<v Speaker 1>which is great with Lebron, DeAndre Hunter, DeAndre Hunter and

0:28:26.440 --> 0:28:32.760
<v Speaker 1>Jareck Cover Uh, Kobe White not helping right now. It's

0:28:32.800 --> 0:28:36.320
<v Speaker 1>just not so they not helping. I think they can

0:28:36.400 --> 0:28:38.080
<v Speaker 1>help Greg, but does not help to the level that

0:28:38.160 --> 0:28:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Lebron needs help right now, That's what it comes down to.

0:28:41.520 --> 0:28:43.080
<v Speaker 1>I think they can help. I think I think those

0:28:43.080 --> 0:28:46.080
<v Speaker 1>players can help an NBA franchise. This is not to

0:28:46.120 --> 0:28:49.000
<v Speaker 1>the level that Lebron needs. The guy didn't make the

0:28:49.000 --> 0:28:53.560
<v Speaker 1>playoffs like the first time in forever, So you need

0:28:53.600 --> 0:28:56.840
<v Speaker 1>some help Lebron need. Anthony Davis is of course he

0:28:57.160 --> 0:29:01.360
<v Speaker 1>is that help. Will the Lakers complete the trade with

0:29:01.400 --> 0:29:05.280
<v Speaker 1>the Pelicans. Will see if the Knicks. The Lakers trade

0:29:05.320 --> 0:29:10.040
<v Speaker 1>Franthony Davis the Nicks at three, I imagine they draft

0:29:10.120 --> 0:29:12.760
<v Speaker 1>with that pick, right, imagine they just take Barrett. Right,

0:29:14.560 --> 0:29:17.040
<v Speaker 1>If the Lakers trade Franthony Davis, I don't think the

0:29:17.080 --> 0:29:19.640
<v Speaker 1>Nicks are training three over for Radley Beal, Like, I

0:29:19.640 --> 0:29:26.680
<v Speaker 1>don't see them doing that. It is a tough situation, like, yeah,

0:29:26.760 --> 0:29:29.800
<v Speaker 1>they probably trade. They probably take Barrett no matter what

0:29:30.200 --> 0:29:33.400
<v Speaker 1>does he is he on the team before the season starts.

0:29:34.440 --> 0:29:37.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm not so sure, and maybe that's something that happens

0:29:37.520 --> 0:29:40.200
<v Speaker 1>closer to free agency, because the worst thing the Knicks

0:29:40.240 --> 0:29:44.320
<v Speaker 1>could do is trade away their third pick and all

0:29:44.320 --> 0:29:46.520
<v Speaker 1>their young players and stuff to get Anthony Davis, and

0:29:46.560 --> 0:29:50.160
<v Speaker 1>then they swing and missing free agency, and Anthony Davis

0:29:50.200 --> 0:29:52.840
<v Speaker 1>is like, is he really He's going to resign in

0:29:52.880 --> 0:29:55.400
<v Speaker 1>New York. It's basically the same situation as what you

0:29:55.440 --> 0:29:58.200
<v Speaker 1>had in the Pelicans, except you're in a bigger market

0:29:58.360 --> 0:30:00.360
<v Speaker 1>in New York and it's gonna be higher expect stations

0:30:00.400 --> 0:30:03.880
<v Speaker 1>and you're gonna get more criticism. So that would be

0:30:03.920 --> 0:30:05.960
<v Speaker 1>the worst situation is if they trade for Anthony Davis

0:30:05.960 --> 0:30:08.000
<v Speaker 1>and then no free agents want to come here. That

0:30:08.200 --> 0:30:11.720
<v Speaker 1>that would just be disastrous. And another disastrous situation, Greg

0:30:11.720 --> 0:30:14.560
<v Speaker 1>would be if they draft r J. Barrett. They have

0:30:14.640 --> 0:30:16.560
<v Speaker 1>this young team, they miss out on all the top

0:30:16.560 --> 0:30:18.400
<v Speaker 1>tier free agents, and then they feel the need to

0:30:18.400 --> 0:30:21.840
<v Speaker 1>just spend money for the sake of spending it, like,

0:30:21.920 --> 0:30:25.520
<v Speaker 1>let's sign Chris Middleton and Tobias Harrison max contracts just

0:30:25.640 --> 0:30:29.120
<v Speaker 1>because we need to make a splash. And free agency,

0:30:29.240 --> 0:30:31.320
<v Speaker 1>and if you're looking at a team like Tobias Harris,

0:30:31.440 --> 0:30:34.800
<v Speaker 1>Chris Middleton and Kevin Knox. RJ. Barrett like, maybe that's

0:30:34.800 --> 0:30:37.640
<v Speaker 1>an eighth seed team in the Eastern Conference, but that

0:30:37.720 --> 0:30:40.160
<v Speaker 1>you're not building a championship contender that way. So it's

0:30:40.480 --> 0:30:42.959
<v Speaker 1>it's all or nothing. It's either they trade their young

0:30:43.000 --> 0:30:45.080
<v Speaker 1>guys and get Anthony Davis and they get free agents

0:30:45.120 --> 0:30:46.360
<v Speaker 1>here and they go for it in the in the

0:30:46.360 --> 0:30:51.080
<v Speaker 1>near future. Or you continue this slow rebuild and maybe

0:30:51.120 --> 0:30:53.920
<v Speaker 1>you sign some some veteran players for short contracts and

0:30:54.120 --> 0:30:56.200
<v Speaker 1>then you can flip those for more assets and you

0:30:56.240 --> 0:30:58.760
<v Speaker 1>continue this slow rebuild and you built through the draft.

0:30:59.480 --> 0:31:01.320
<v Speaker 1>I know that fans are kind of like Auntie and

0:31:01.560 --> 0:31:03.040
<v Speaker 1>they want to win now and it's been so long.

0:31:03.080 --> 0:31:05.320
<v Speaker 1>I understand that, like I live here in New York understand.

0:31:05.840 --> 0:31:08.479
<v Speaker 1>But if they go the slow rebuild route and just

0:31:08.480 --> 0:31:11.520
<v Speaker 1>continue to wrap up assets and draft picks, remember they

0:31:11.520 --> 0:31:13.320
<v Speaker 1>have two first round picks from the Mavericks and they

0:31:13.320 --> 0:31:15.680
<v Speaker 1>still have all their own first round picks, so they

0:31:15.680 --> 0:31:17.440
<v Speaker 1>can build through the draft. I don't think that that's

0:31:17.480 --> 0:31:21.240
<v Speaker 1>the worst thing either. So different options for the Knicks.

0:31:21.360 --> 0:31:24.680
<v Speaker 1>Pelicans get really really lucky, uh menhis Grizzlies get really lucky,

0:31:24.680 --> 0:31:28.160
<v Speaker 1>really lucky. Hopefully they're their rebuild can begin um in

0:31:28.280 --> 0:31:31.120
<v Speaker 1>Earnest Ernest soon. Pairing up an R. J Barrett or

0:31:31.120 --> 0:31:33.560
<v Speaker 1>a John Morant with Triple J. Good spot there for

0:31:33.600 --> 0:31:36.600
<v Speaker 1>the Memphis Grizzlies. Great spot. And I thought about this

0:31:36.680 --> 0:31:38.840
<v Speaker 1>last night. To put together a young core of John

0:31:38.880 --> 0:31:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. If you're a Grizzlies fan,

0:31:42.640 --> 0:31:45.840
<v Speaker 1>I feel great, Man, that is an awesome young duo

0:31:45.920 --> 0:31:48.360
<v Speaker 1>to build around for the future. Darren Jackson Jr. Is

0:31:48.400 --> 0:31:51.280
<v Speaker 1>going to be an absolute stud and I I do

0:31:51.400 --> 0:31:53.720
<v Speaker 1>have some high expectations for John Morant as well. I

0:31:53.720 --> 0:31:55.280
<v Speaker 1>do think he's the best point guard in the draft.

0:31:55.600 --> 0:31:57.760
<v Speaker 1>I think he should go second overall as well. I

0:31:57.800 --> 0:31:59.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of wish it Nicks could get him, but I

0:31:59.040 --> 0:32:01.000
<v Speaker 1>don't think that he's gonna be there. Uh. They have

0:32:01.040 --> 0:32:04.040
<v Speaker 1>a young core of John Moran and Triple J. Pretty

0:32:04.120 --> 0:32:09.760
<v Speaker 1>damn good. As a Grizzlies fan. The Memphis Grizzlies, I

0:32:09.760 --> 0:32:12.840
<v Speaker 1>think they trade. Where where is Mike Conley yok? Who

0:32:12.880 --> 0:32:16.600
<v Speaker 1>wants that contract? I've seen Indiana as a possibility, and

0:32:16.600 --> 0:32:20.800
<v Speaker 1>I think that makes sense. You put together Ladipoladipo Miners.

0:32:21.160 --> 0:32:24.120
<v Speaker 1>That's a pretty good I can buy that that's cool.

0:32:24.160 --> 0:32:27.720
<v Speaker 1>I like that. I like that all right. So NBA

0:32:27.800 --> 0:32:31.600
<v Speaker 1>Draft is June twenty. The combine in Chicago will be

0:32:31.720 --> 0:32:34.520
<v Speaker 1>much sooner than that, and hopefully run no Fernando goes

0:32:34.560 --> 0:32:37.800
<v Speaker 1>high justin Britian chances. I'll take commonly on the Bulls.

0:32:39.640 --> 0:32:41.920
<v Speaker 1>They don't really have faith in Chris Dunn as their

0:32:41.960 --> 0:32:44.080
<v Speaker 1>starting point. Car. I know that. I know that to

0:32:44.360 --> 0:32:47.240
<v Speaker 1>a team that's a little bit closer correct. Bulls have

0:32:47.280 --> 0:32:48.760
<v Speaker 1>a good young core too. I really like what the

0:32:48.760 --> 0:32:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Bulls are doing. I don't really try marketing. Zach Levine,

0:32:51.800 --> 0:32:54.440
<v Speaker 1>Wendell Carter is gonna be a stud. They have young pieces. Man,

0:32:54.480 --> 0:32:57.680
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna be good. I just don't trust Jim Boiling anyway.

0:32:57.480 --> 0:33:01.520
<v Speaker 1>They just got a contract extension too. He's like very

0:33:01.560 --> 0:33:05.440
<v Speaker 1>old school. You gotta run sprints, sprands, Grey's friends, and

0:33:05.480 --> 0:33:08.760
<v Speaker 1>then you'll be a good NBA team. See what happens there.

0:33:08.840 --> 0:33:10.400
<v Speaker 1>I do like the young players on the Bulls though.

0:33:12.680 --> 0:33:15.440
<v Speaker 1>The Bulls, we'll see if they have a future. I

0:33:15.440 --> 0:33:17.880
<v Speaker 1>can make it work, obviously. Fred Hoiberg now back in

0:33:18.080 --> 0:33:22.160
<v Speaker 1>college becauch Nebraska. That's why it's not the worst thing.

0:33:22.200 --> 0:33:25.120
<v Speaker 1>If the Knicks just keep their young players and completely

0:33:25.160 --> 0:33:27.440
<v Speaker 1>continue to build through the draft. I know it's not

0:33:27.480 --> 0:33:29.440
<v Speaker 1>what people want to hear, but look at the teams

0:33:29.440 --> 0:33:31.440
<v Speaker 1>that are doing that. Look at the Sacramento Kings, man,

0:33:31.480 --> 0:33:33.360
<v Speaker 1>I think the Sacramento Kings are gonna be really good

0:33:33.400 --> 0:33:36.600
<v Speaker 1>next year. I'm talking top six seed in the West. Greg,

0:33:36.760 --> 0:33:38.400
<v Speaker 1>I think that the Kings are gonna take a huge

0:33:38.400 --> 0:33:40.560
<v Speaker 1>step forward next year. And you see these teams that

0:33:40.600 --> 0:33:43.280
<v Speaker 1>are building through the draft and acquiring young talent. I

0:33:43.320 --> 0:33:47.280
<v Speaker 1>like what the Bulls are doing. And and then with

0:33:47.360 --> 0:33:50.880
<v Speaker 1>the Grizzlies to Triple J and John Moran, you just

0:33:51.280 --> 0:33:53.920
<v Speaker 1>built through the draft. I understand you got these max slots.

0:33:54.880 --> 0:33:57.280
<v Speaker 1>What happens, Yep, we do a lot of time, have

0:33:57.360 --> 0:34:00.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot of time. Uh. Although I did see something

0:34:00.360 --> 0:34:02.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't even notices today, Frank, that you know free

0:34:02.800 --> 0:34:06.600
<v Speaker 1>agency normally starts July one at midnight in the NBA. Yes,

0:34:07.400 --> 0:34:10.040
<v Speaker 1>they're moving that up at the rumor is to June

0:34:10.080 --> 0:34:14.879
<v Speaker 1>thirty at six pm because midnight like ridiculous. So they're

0:34:14.880 --> 0:34:16.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna move it up to six pm the night before,

0:34:17.520 --> 0:34:19.960
<v Speaker 1>so that's when you can officially sign. That's when they like,

0:34:20.000 --> 0:34:21.920
<v Speaker 1>do you get the people of the days before they're like,

0:34:22.000 --> 0:34:25.560
<v Speaker 1>they intend to sign here. Okay, So that's like that's

0:34:25.560 --> 0:34:27.359
<v Speaker 1>not really gonna change things all that much. Right, Well,

0:34:27.360 --> 0:34:30.440
<v Speaker 1>it's not midnight that anymore, it's six hours earlier. We

0:34:30.600 --> 0:34:32.400
<v Speaker 1>still find out days in advance that this player no

0:34:32.840 --> 0:34:34.799
<v Speaker 1>sign no, no, no no, no, we find out. That's when

0:34:34.800 --> 0:34:36.920
<v Speaker 1>we find out, all right, So that's when teams can

0:34:37.000 --> 0:34:41.080
<v Speaker 1>officially like starting negotiating. Right, So the official signs like

0:34:41.080 --> 0:34:43.440
<v Speaker 1>a week later, we're like, oh, they signed, but that

0:34:43.560 --> 0:34:46.200
<v Speaker 1>that it's all like woe signing. The Nick's intend to

0:34:46.239 --> 0:34:49.000
<v Speaker 1>sign bla blah blah, the Warriors intend to sign bla

0:34:49.000 --> 0:34:54.239
<v Speaker 1>blah blah. That's all happens at six o'clock. What do

0:34:54.280 --> 0:34:58.920
<v Speaker 1>you think is more likely outcome, Greg, That they trade

0:34:58.960 --> 0:35:02.080
<v Speaker 1>the entire farm away to get Anthony Davis and take

0:35:02.120 --> 0:35:06.239
<v Speaker 1>their shot at EMBA or Kyrie. And even if they

0:35:06.280 --> 0:35:08.480
<v Speaker 1>swing in, if they end up with Kemba, Jimmy Butler

0:35:08.520 --> 0:35:11.319
<v Speaker 1>and Anthony Davis, that's still a pretty damn good three. Yeah.

0:35:11.360 --> 0:35:13.800
<v Speaker 1>I would be all right with that. Yeah, I just

0:35:13.840 --> 0:35:15.399
<v Speaker 1>don't want to go lower than that. I don't want

0:35:15.400 --> 0:35:18.080
<v Speaker 1>our two max free agents to be Tobias Harrison Christian Midleton.

0:35:18.280 --> 0:35:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Not that I like those players, but they need to

0:35:20.360 --> 0:35:22.319
<v Speaker 1>go to teams that already have stars. They can't be

0:35:22.360 --> 0:35:25.399
<v Speaker 1>the guys on their teams. So that's really where I'm

0:35:25.440 --> 0:35:28.120
<v Speaker 1>drawing the line. If they can get two of A

0:35:28.360 --> 0:35:32.920
<v Speaker 1>D Kyrie, Jimmy Butler, Kemba Walker and trade for Anthony Davis,

0:35:32.920 --> 0:35:34.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm fine with it. What do you think it's more

0:35:34.200 --> 0:35:37.839
<v Speaker 1>likely to happen? I think more likely to having is

0:35:39.800 --> 0:35:42.319
<v Speaker 1>not training for Anthony Davis. You don't think they will.

0:35:42.360 --> 0:35:43.919
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that they have that they can put

0:35:43.960 --> 0:35:46.799
<v Speaker 1>together a really competitive I don't know. I don't know.

0:35:47.200 --> 0:35:49.640
<v Speaker 1>I think that they want them. I think ideally you

0:35:49.680 --> 0:35:52.000
<v Speaker 1>get any with Kevin Duran have more picks that they

0:35:52.000 --> 0:35:53.920
<v Speaker 1>can offer than the Lakers. Do they do? They do?

0:35:53.960 --> 0:35:56.280
<v Speaker 1>They don't have any young players that are talented as Lakers.

0:35:57.120 --> 0:35:58.600
<v Speaker 1>But I think the jury is still kind of out

0:35:58.600 --> 0:36:01.000
<v Speaker 1>on these guys. Like Kyle Kus was a good player,

0:36:01.600 --> 0:36:06.919
<v Speaker 1>but is he that much better than Kevin Knox Brandon Ingram,

0:36:07.040 --> 0:36:08.640
<v Speaker 1>I think the jury is still out on him. We

0:36:08.680 --> 0:36:11.040
<v Speaker 1>haven't really seen enough from him. R J. Barrett could

0:36:11.040 --> 0:36:13.480
<v Speaker 1>potentially be better than brandon Ingram, but he also might

0:36:13.480 --> 0:36:16.719
<v Speaker 1>be much worse. But I mean, what does that even

0:36:16.760 --> 0:36:19.480
<v Speaker 1>say like brandon Ingram like doesn't set a high bar

0:36:19.640 --> 0:36:22.560
<v Speaker 1>right now. I think he's a good player, but I

0:36:22.600 --> 0:36:23.960
<v Speaker 1>think the jury is still kind of out on him.

0:36:24.000 --> 0:36:25.920
<v Speaker 1>And then then it's Smith like you can get another

0:36:26.080 --> 0:36:29.160
<v Speaker 1>like a young point guard in return to then it's

0:36:29.160 --> 0:36:31.440
<v Speaker 1>Smith versu Launson Ball. I guess the the offers are

0:36:31.480 --> 0:36:33.359
<v Speaker 1>kind of similar, actually, if you look at it, like

0:36:35.200 --> 0:36:37.959
<v Speaker 1>the difference. The difference is Mitchell Robinson. If the Knicks

0:36:37.960 --> 0:36:40.480
<v Speaker 1>include Mitchell Robinson, that's the deal break because the Lakers

0:36:40.520 --> 0:36:43.080
<v Speaker 1>don't have a big man that they can offer like Robinson. No,

0:36:43.520 --> 0:36:45.799
<v Speaker 1>but if the Nicks give up Mitchell Robinson, Kevin Knox, RJ,

0:36:45.880 --> 0:36:49.279
<v Speaker 1>Barrett s J and like two Mads first round picks,

0:36:49.320 --> 0:36:51.200
<v Speaker 1>that's that's an offer that gets it done. I agree,

0:36:51.320 --> 0:36:53.439
<v Speaker 1>that's an offer that gets I agree. I just don't

0:36:53.440 --> 0:36:55.080
<v Speaker 1>know if I want a tooth. That's gonna be a

0:36:55.080 --> 0:36:57.920
<v Speaker 1>fun month or two in New York. We hope, what

0:36:58.040 --> 0:37:00.560

0:39:39.800 --> 0:39:41.399
<v Speaker 1>I went to bed and I saw you tweet something

0:39:41.440 --> 0:39:46.000
<v Speaker 1>out and listen to me. I didn't, and it wasn't

0:39:46.000 --> 0:39:48.000
<v Speaker 1>fast enough. Really, I saw it this morning, and I

0:39:48.040 --> 0:39:51.000
<v Speaker 1>wasn't fast enough. And you've been talking for a while

0:39:51.040 --> 0:39:53.400
<v Speaker 1>about what you how good you think Austin Riley can

0:39:53.440 --> 0:39:56.680
<v Speaker 1>be of the Atlanta Braves or all about to find

0:39:56.680 --> 0:39:58.680
<v Speaker 1>out how good Austin Riley of the Atlanta Braves can

0:39:58.680 --> 0:40:01.120
<v Speaker 1>be as entry in CRT. He got hurt last night

0:40:01.480 --> 0:40:03.680
<v Speaker 1>and the Raiders wasted no time in calling up their

0:40:03.680 --> 0:40:06.959
<v Speaker 1>top prospect, Austin Riley. And he's another in the long

0:40:07.000 --> 0:40:09.080
<v Speaker 1>line of prospects Frank that get called up over the

0:40:09.160 --> 0:40:13.040
<v Speaker 1>last couple of days, including in Kansas City, in Cleveland,

0:40:13.120 --> 0:40:16.239
<v Speaker 1>in Milwaukee, and now in Atlanta. There's a lot to

0:40:16.280 --> 0:40:18.400
<v Speaker 1>like about Austin Riley. I also wrote this on my

0:40:18.400 --> 0:40:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Pagetreon last night, and that's exactly why you need to

0:40:20.360 --> 0:40:23.960
<v Speaker 1>subscribe to my Patreon. I told people right when the

0:40:24.040 --> 0:40:26.400
<v Speaker 1>ender n c rt A injury happened last night that

0:40:27.400 --> 0:40:30.520
<v Speaker 1>it's time to stash Austin Riley now, because this guy's

0:40:30.560 --> 0:40:32.880
<v Speaker 1>absolutely mashing. He hit a grand Slam last night. It

0:40:32.920 --> 0:40:35.600
<v Speaker 1>was his fifteenth home run of the season over the

0:40:35.640 --> 0:40:38.040
<v Speaker 1>past week. He had been playing more games in the outfield,

0:40:38.040 --> 0:40:40.360
<v Speaker 1>specifically in left field, so we can play a corner

0:40:40.560 --> 0:40:44.320
<v Speaker 1>in corner outfield position. He has pop. He's got the

0:40:44.320 --> 0:40:46.239
<v Speaker 1>fifteen horm runs in the year. He's got thirty nine

0:40:46.320 --> 0:40:50.600
<v Speaker 1>ribbys at triple A batting average to eighty four career

0:40:50.680 --> 0:40:57.319
<v Speaker 1>hitter in the minors is a. He is a third

0:40:57.320 --> 0:40:59.920
<v Speaker 1>basement by trade, but he's going to play the outfield,

0:41:00.080 --> 0:41:02.680
<v Speaker 1>and it was gonna take an injury to an alfire

0:41:02.840 --> 0:41:06.719
<v Speaker 1>or or Josh Donaldson. And there's lots of like here.

0:41:06.760 --> 0:41:09.040
<v Speaker 1>There's lots of like He He cut down his strikeout

0:41:09.120 --> 0:41:11.600
<v Speaker 1>rate from last year to this year by about ten percent.

0:41:12.280 --> 0:41:15.160
<v Speaker 1>He as up to his walk rate by about two percent.

0:41:15.200 --> 0:41:18.200
<v Speaker 1>He's taking all the necessary steps to get better. And

0:41:18.280 --> 0:41:20.120
<v Speaker 1>people really need to go out there and be aggressive

0:41:20.160 --> 0:41:22.000
<v Speaker 1>on Austin Riley right now. A lot of people have

0:41:22.080 --> 0:41:24.799
<v Speaker 1>been asking me questions. I've seen some crazy questions too,

0:41:24.920 --> 0:41:28.680
<v Speaker 1>like let's not get too crazy with this. I like

0:41:28.760 --> 0:41:32.200
<v Speaker 1>Austin Riley. I have big expectations for him. He's entering

0:41:32.200 --> 0:41:34.040
<v Speaker 1>a really good line up with the Atlanta Braves. But

0:41:34.239 --> 0:41:36.080
<v Speaker 1>I had someone asked me showing to drop Josh Donaldson

0:41:36.120 --> 0:41:39.000
<v Speaker 1>for Austin Riley. Well, it's like, at that point, what

0:41:39.040 --> 0:41:41.600
<v Speaker 1>are we expecting Austin Riley to do? Because as much

0:41:41.680 --> 0:41:44.200
<v Speaker 1>as I did not like Josh donalson coming into the season,

0:41:44.600 --> 0:41:46.880
<v Speaker 1>he's still been pretty good and he's the one who'satting

0:41:46.880 --> 0:41:50.040
<v Speaker 1>clean up for the Atlanta Braves. So let's let's temper

0:41:50.520 --> 0:41:53.640
<v Speaker 1>our expectation a bit. Let's not drop anyone who's too good.

0:41:53.880 --> 0:41:55.840
<v Speaker 1>But I would try my best to get Austin Riley

0:41:55.840 --> 0:41:58.280
<v Speaker 1>on my roster right now. If I'm ranking the prospects

0:41:58.320 --> 0:42:00.760
<v Speaker 1>that have been called up over the past couple of days,

0:42:01.160 --> 0:42:03.120
<v Speaker 1>I would rank it. I would still put esting here

0:42:03.160 --> 0:42:05.120
<v Speaker 1>ahead of him, actually, because I like the break the

0:42:05.120 --> 0:42:07.440
<v Speaker 1>Brewer's line up a little bit more. He was a

0:42:07.520 --> 0:42:10.239
<v Speaker 1>higher rated prospect coming into the year, and he's then

0:42:10.360 --> 0:42:15.080
<v Speaker 1>he's done nothing to be surpassed by Austin Riley. Austin

0:42:15.160 --> 0:42:18.759
<v Speaker 1>Riley's number two on that list. I'll take Pablo Lopez,

0:42:20.080 --> 0:42:22.040
<v Speaker 1>always got Pabo Lopez on the mind. I'll take Nicky

0:42:22.080 --> 0:42:24.360
<v Speaker 1>Lopez there. I'll take Oscar Mercado fourth, and then we

0:42:24.400 --> 0:42:26.640
<v Speaker 1>have another prospect who just got called up, and Jared

0:42:26.680 --> 0:42:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Wallace for the Los Angeles Angels. Of Anaheim, Greg who

0:42:29.280 --> 0:42:34.960
<v Speaker 1>Jar Jared Wallis is someone who has legitimate pop and

0:42:35.080 --> 0:42:37.279
<v Speaker 1>he's already in the lineup today. He's playing first base

0:42:37.360 --> 0:42:42.120
<v Speaker 1>for the Los Angeles Angels. He's just twenty five years old.

0:42:42.320 --> 0:42:44.240
<v Speaker 1>And last year there's a guy who with two seventy

0:42:44.280 --> 0:42:47.719
<v Speaker 1>seven with nine home runs across three different levels. In

0:42:47.719 --> 0:42:49.640
<v Speaker 1>the minors, he had ninety nine ribbies. So you need

0:42:49.680 --> 0:42:51.600
<v Speaker 1>a corner infield. You're looking for a little bit of pop.

0:42:52.080 --> 0:42:54.120
<v Speaker 1>He does struggle a little bit with strike apps. He's

0:42:54.520 --> 0:42:56.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's hovered in that mid to high twenty

0:42:56.719 --> 0:42:59.600
<v Speaker 1>percent strike out out range, so it's gonna strike out

0:42:59.600 --> 0:43:01.720
<v Speaker 1>a decent it. But he's also hit for some batting average.

0:43:01.719 --> 0:43:03.399
<v Speaker 1>This year he was batting three oh two with ten

0:43:03.480 --> 0:43:06.359
<v Speaker 1>home runs. Uh. And I think that the Angels can

0:43:06.440 --> 0:43:09.040
<v Speaker 1>use another left handed power bat in their lineup. So

0:43:09.200 --> 0:43:11.560
<v Speaker 1>you need a quarter infielder, you need a utility in

0:43:11.600 --> 0:43:14.920
<v Speaker 1>a deeper league and ale only fifteen team mix. All

0:43:14.960 --> 0:43:17.400
<v Speaker 1>these players should be owned, but specifically maybe in the

0:43:17.440 --> 0:43:20.600
<v Speaker 1>deeper leagues. I'm looking at Jared Walsh as a pickup

0:43:20.600 --> 0:43:22.000
<v Speaker 1>as well. He could play first base, he could play

0:43:22.000 --> 0:43:24.000
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of outfield, and he was matching in

0:43:24.000 --> 0:43:25.360
<v Speaker 1>the minors, So I think that the Angels are going

0:43:25.400 --> 0:43:27.160
<v Speaker 1>to give him every day playing time here as well.

0:43:27.440 --> 0:43:30.040
<v Speaker 1>All right, so Jared Walsh a sneaky under the radar

0:43:30.080 --> 0:43:33.319
<v Speaker 1>potential pick up as a prospect, Austin Riley is he?

0:43:33.560 --> 0:43:37.399
<v Speaker 1>Is he up for good? And same Keston here as well?

0:43:37.440 --> 0:43:39.600
<v Speaker 1>Are these guys up for good that you're gonna spend

0:43:39.640 --> 0:43:41.560
<v Speaker 1>that significant portion of your fab and getting a guy

0:43:41.560 --> 0:43:43.640
<v Speaker 1>that you can have the rest of the season. I

0:43:43.680 --> 0:43:46.600
<v Speaker 1>know it's go ahead. I was gonna say, like obviously,

0:43:46.640 --> 0:43:48.600
<v Speaker 1>like you don't have a finality to that answer. A

0:43:48.600 --> 0:43:50.640
<v Speaker 1>couple weeks ago, we didn't think Michael Chambers for good,

0:43:50.640 --> 0:43:51.960
<v Speaker 1>and he certainly doesn't seem to be going back to

0:43:51.960 --> 0:43:53.960
<v Speaker 1>the miners anytime. Saying we thought Carter Keyban was up

0:43:54.000 --> 0:43:56.440
<v Speaker 1>for We obviously thought Carter Keeba, if he performed, will

0:43:56.480 --> 0:43:58.520
<v Speaker 1>be up for good. He was back down two weeks later.

0:43:58.760 --> 0:44:00.759
<v Speaker 1>So I know you don't have a definitive, but in

0:44:00.800 --> 0:44:02.239
<v Speaker 1>your best estimation, it was kind of what I was

0:44:02.239 --> 0:44:06.000
<v Speaker 1>hoping you give. Yeah, so you you basically stole how

0:44:06.000 --> 0:44:09.200
<v Speaker 1>I was going to previce my questions. I was saying, Um,

0:44:09.280 --> 0:44:10.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't have the answer to that question. I know

0:44:10.719 --> 0:44:12.920
<v Speaker 1>it's my job to have an answer to that question,

0:44:13.520 --> 0:44:15.080
<v Speaker 1>but a lot of it just comes down to what

0:44:15.080 --> 0:44:18.000
<v Speaker 1>we always say about these prospects. If they perform, they'll

0:44:18.000 --> 0:44:20.239
<v Speaker 1>stick around. And I do stand by that. When it

0:44:20.239 --> 0:44:21.839
<v Speaker 1>came to Carver, keep him too. If he had been

0:44:21.880 --> 0:44:24.239
<v Speaker 1>performing well, he'd still be on the team right now.

0:44:24.680 --> 0:44:27.040
<v Speaker 1>He got demoted, and rightfully so, he was striking out

0:44:27.120 --> 0:44:29.520
<v Speaker 1>what seemed like every other at bat. He wasn't feeling well.

0:44:29.760 --> 0:44:31.799
<v Speaker 1>He needed to be sent back to the miners. And

0:44:31.840 --> 0:44:34.680
<v Speaker 1>that's exactly how I feel or the rest of these guys.

0:44:34.880 --> 0:44:36.279
<v Speaker 1>Look at the Angels, I mean, a couple of weeks

0:44:36.280 --> 0:44:37.880
<v Speaker 1>ago they called up Louis R and gif and we

0:44:37.880 --> 0:44:40.280
<v Speaker 1>were excited about that, a guy that can provide stolen basis,

0:44:40.480 --> 0:44:43.200
<v Speaker 1>and he's already been sent down. I think for maybe

0:44:43.239 --> 0:44:49.040
<v Speaker 1>these lower level prospects, they have a shorter leash where

0:44:49.120 --> 0:44:51.000
<v Speaker 1>if they're not performing right away, even if it's a

0:44:51.040 --> 0:44:53.919
<v Speaker 1>week or two, they're probably more likely to get sent down.

0:44:54.000 --> 0:44:57.280
<v Speaker 1>So maybe we're looking at Oscar Mercado in that sense,

0:44:57.320 --> 0:44:59.839
<v Speaker 1>and we're looking at Jared Walsh. You know, if these

0:45:00.000 --> 0:45:02.759
<v Speaker 1>eyes are striking out left and right, and they're making

0:45:02.840 --> 0:45:06.640
<v Speaker 1>blunders defensively and on the base paths, then they're gonna

0:45:06.680 --> 0:45:10.640
<v Speaker 1>get sent back down. But Austin Riley probably the most

0:45:10.680 --> 0:45:13.839
<v Speaker 1>impressive hitter in the minors this year outside of your

0:45:13.880 --> 0:45:15.879
<v Speaker 1>Don Alvarez. And if he shows any of what he's

0:45:15.880 --> 0:45:18.360
<v Speaker 1>shown so far this year, his ability to make contact,

0:45:18.400 --> 0:45:21.279
<v Speaker 1>cutdown on the strikeouts, walk more, hit more home runs,

0:45:21.320 --> 0:45:25.080
<v Speaker 1>hit for power, and play a decent a competent outfield

0:45:25.080 --> 0:45:29.080
<v Speaker 1>corner outfield position, then Austin Riley is going to stick around.

0:45:29.239 --> 0:45:30.719
<v Speaker 1>And that's probably the one that I have the most

0:45:30.800 --> 0:45:34.360
<v Speaker 1>faith in. But Keston here last night to two hits,

0:45:34.400 --> 0:45:37.800
<v Speaker 1>a walk, very composed at the plate. This kid is ready.

0:45:38.000 --> 0:45:40.400
<v Speaker 1>He's been like I think he was already last year too,

0:45:40.719 --> 0:45:42.880
<v Speaker 1>but they hold him down, They hold him down for

0:45:42.920 --> 0:45:44.760
<v Speaker 1>another month and a half year to start the season.

0:45:45.200 --> 0:45:47.279
<v Speaker 1>He is ready. So I do have a lot of

0:45:47.280 --> 0:45:50.600
<v Speaker 1>faith in Keston here as well. But if Travis Shaw

0:45:50.680 --> 0:45:52.760
<v Speaker 1>comes back, do they just sweep him under the rug?

0:45:53.000 --> 0:45:55.000
<v Speaker 1>They were talking about putting him the minor leagues. So

0:45:55.040 --> 0:45:57.680
<v Speaker 1>I think the answer to that question is yeah, if

0:45:57.760 --> 0:46:00.719
<v Speaker 1>Keston here is playing well, I think Travis Shaw might

0:46:00.719 --> 0:46:03.440
<v Speaker 1>have just got wally pipped. So I do have a

0:46:03.480 --> 0:46:05.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of faith in these top prospects. Greg A lot

0:46:05.160 --> 0:46:07.839
<v Speaker 1>of it comes down to if they perform, and that's

0:46:07.880 --> 0:46:10.400
<v Speaker 1>easy to say, but I do think that Austin Riley

0:46:10.520 --> 0:46:14.080
<v Speaker 1>and Kesson here are going to perform. I think that

0:46:14.160 --> 0:46:16.080
<v Speaker 1>there's a shorter lease for some of these lower level

0:46:16.080 --> 0:46:21.640
<v Speaker 1>prospects like Mercado and Jared Walls. I think that for Hera,

0:46:21.800 --> 0:46:24.719
<v Speaker 1>it's all gonna be on him if he performs, He's

0:46:24.760 --> 0:46:27.120
<v Speaker 1>not leaving that lineup, and he's a natural second baseman.

0:46:28.800 --> 0:46:31.560
<v Speaker 1>It all fits really really well for him that he

0:46:31.719 --> 0:46:34.279
<v Speaker 1>just played second base, Travis Show becomes a bench bat,

0:46:34.320 --> 0:46:36.759
<v Speaker 1>he lost his job. He could be part of this

0:46:36.840 --> 0:46:39.919
<v Speaker 1>first base mix with Aguilar and Eric that this point

0:46:39.960 --> 0:46:42.120
<v Speaker 1>that could happen, you know, so you Mustaki's plays the

0:46:42.200 --> 0:46:45.799
<v Speaker 1>first absolutely, so most is safe too, Like that's the

0:46:45.840 --> 0:46:47.480
<v Speaker 1>other one you don't have to worry anything about. If

0:46:47.560 --> 0:46:51.920
<v Speaker 1>hero one runs away with his job, he'll stay. And

0:46:52.600 --> 0:46:54.720
<v Speaker 1>I think the same could probably be said for Austin

0:46:54.800 --> 0:46:57.239
<v Speaker 1>Riley as well if he runs away to this job.

0:46:58.120 --> 0:47:00.440
<v Speaker 1>I want to pay attention to him defensively too, because

0:47:00.480 --> 0:47:04.360
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't have a lot of experiences, only played four games,

0:47:04.360 --> 0:47:05.600
<v Speaker 1>like they might have used him a little bit in

0:47:05.600 --> 0:47:07.560
<v Speaker 1>spring training here and there, and obviously all the work

0:47:07.560 --> 0:47:11.239
<v Speaker 1>that he's doing when it's not game time, obviously, like

0:47:11.320 --> 0:47:13.720
<v Speaker 1>the work before games and after games. And he's trying

0:47:13.760 --> 0:47:16.040
<v Speaker 1>to become an outfielder because they want his bat in

0:47:16.040 --> 0:47:18.600
<v Speaker 1>the lineup. That's how badly the Braves wanted to get

0:47:18.680 --> 0:47:21.320
<v Speaker 1>him in this lineup. They're teaching him a new position.

0:47:21.360 --> 0:47:23.800
<v Speaker 1>He played a little bit of first basis year as well. Obviously,

0:47:23.840 --> 0:47:26.240
<v Speaker 1>Freddie Freeman is not going anywhere. He's a third basement

0:47:26.239 --> 0:47:28.759
<v Speaker 1>by trade. I do want to pay attention to what

0:47:28.880 --> 0:47:32.080
<v Speaker 1>he does defensively, because, like Carter key Boom, if he

0:47:32.120 --> 0:47:34.400
<v Speaker 1>comes up starts struggling a little bit. Look, Carter Key

0:47:34.400 --> 0:47:37.120
<v Speaker 1>bon was a really top notch prospect as well, but

0:47:37.280 --> 0:47:39.799
<v Speaker 1>he was striking out. He was not doing getting it

0:47:39.840 --> 0:47:42.720
<v Speaker 1>done defensively. The same thing could be said for Austin Riley.

0:47:42.719 --> 0:47:45.239
<v Speaker 1>So I do want to pay attention to what he

0:47:45.280 --> 0:47:49.480
<v Speaker 1>does defensively. Offensively, he's ready by all means, but we've

0:47:49.480 --> 0:47:51.399
<v Speaker 1>seen guys get off to slow starts. Hell, we're gonna

0:47:51.400 --> 0:47:53.439
<v Speaker 1>talk about vladimc. Gerreio Jr. Who just did his first

0:47:53.440 --> 0:47:55.319
<v Speaker 1>two home runs, But look at what he did the

0:47:55.360 --> 0:47:57.080
<v Speaker 1>first two or three weeks he's been in the league,

0:47:57.600 --> 0:47:59.799
<v Speaker 1>he was terrible. If he was any other prospect not

0:47:59.840 --> 0:48:02.360
<v Speaker 1>in Vladimir Guerrero Jr. He might be back down to

0:48:02.400 --> 0:48:06.239
<v Speaker 1>the miners. So even when you're the top prospect in

0:48:06.280 --> 0:48:11.360
<v Speaker 1>baseball in Vladimir Guerrero Jr. There's a chance that you

0:48:11.360 --> 0:48:13.640
<v Speaker 1>can struggle right out of the gate. So there's always

0:48:13.640 --> 0:48:16.000
<v Speaker 1>that chance to remind people of that. Let's you have

0:48:16.040 --> 0:48:18.120
<v Speaker 1>to temper expectations a little bit with these guys. Great

0:48:18.680 --> 0:48:21.480
<v Speaker 1>temper the expectations with both of these prospects. You heard

0:48:21.480 --> 0:48:25.320
<v Speaker 1>Alt Frank ranked um Uh. Number one was Cassahira. Number

0:48:25.360 --> 0:48:29.000
<v Speaker 1>two was Austin Riley. Number three Nikki Lopez, who started

0:48:29.000 --> 0:48:31.560
<v Speaker 1>off his game batting in that too over again which

0:48:31.600 --> 0:48:36.080
<v Speaker 1>Well said yesterday suit Hat did and goes down to three,

0:48:36.160 --> 0:48:37.600
<v Speaker 1>And I said, I think it makes a lot of

0:48:37.600 --> 0:48:39.640
<v Speaker 1>sense to based on his ob P and what he's

0:48:39.640 --> 0:48:42.799
<v Speaker 1>showing on the miners makes a lot of sense, makes

0:48:42.840 --> 0:48:45.120
<v Speaker 1>a lot of sense. So I put Niki Lopez third

0:48:45.120 --> 0:48:48.319
<v Speaker 1>on that list. That's a good spot to be in

0:48:48.360 --> 0:48:52.320
<v Speaker 1>man adding right behind whit Maryfield and ahead of Albert'smondescy

0:48:52.400 --> 0:48:55.759
<v Speaker 1>and Alex Gordon and Hunter Doger. That's a really really

0:48:55.800 --> 0:49:00.560
<v Speaker 1>good spot to be in the lineup. Sorry, I just

0:49:02.760 --> 0:49:11.319
<v Speaker 1>jet stuff. Actually yes, um nevertheless, nevertheless, um yeah. So

0:49:11.520 --> 0:49:13.239
<v Speaker 1>it's a really good sponsible in the lineup. That's why

0:49:13.239 --> 0:49:16.320
<v Speaker 1>he's to meet clearly the third guy. And he has

0:49:16.840 --> 0:49:19.239
<v Speaker 1>multi eligibility obviously in Yahoo I believe he's right now

0:49:19.320 --> 0:49:21.480
<v Speaker 1>just shortstop eligible. He'll get the second base eligibility. You

0:49:21.520 --> 0:49:25.239
<v Speaker 1>have that middle infield eligibility. It's huge, It's absolutely huge.

0:49:25.400 --> 0:49:27.359
<v Speaker 1>So really interested in these guys. We'll talk more about

0:49:27.360 --> 0:49:30.400
<v Speaker 1>the waiver wire specifically on Friday with Florio exactly how

0:49:30.480 --> 0:49:33.200
<v Speaker 1>much you're going to beat on these guys. And those

0:49:33.200 --> 0:49:35.479
<v Speaker 1>are for people who play in leagues where your fab

0:49:35.600 --> 0:49:39.480
<v Speaker 1>runs once a week. What are your fifteen team leagues?

0:49:39.640 --> 0:49:42.399
<v Speaker 1>They work that way. NFBC leagues work one way. Isn't

0:49:42.400 --> 0:49:45.280
<v Speaker 1>your your waivers run tonight or last night? My waivers

0:49:45.320 --> 0:49:47.080
<v Speaker 1>run tonight? So what do you think I'm gonna find

0:49:47.120 --> 0:49:48.880
<v Speaker 1>out a lot about these guys. I mean I have

0:49:48.920 --> 0:49:51.400
<v Speaker 1>to evaluate my teams and really figure out like what

0:49:51.520 --> 0:49:55.640
<v Speaker 1>kind of needs that I have. For example, I had

0:49:55.719 --> 0:49:57.680
<v Speaker 1>Daniel Murphy as my second basement. He's on my bench

0:49:57.719 --> 0:49:59.799
<v Speaker 1>this week. He was on the Rockies bench last night

0:49:59.840 --> 0:50:02.600
<v Speaker 1>as well. Surprise, surprise. I still think something something's going

0:50:02.600 --> 0:50:04.560
<v Speaker 1>on with Daniel Murphy. I think that this injury, this

0:50:04.840 --> 0:50:08.600
<v Speaker 1>finger injury, is not healed and they're using playing lefties

0:50:08.640 --> 0:50:10.160
<v Speaker 1>as an excuse to keep him on the bench. But

0:50:10.239 --> 0:50:11.680
<v Speaker 1>if that's the case, why didn't you just leave this

0:50:11.719 --> 0:50:14.960
<v Speaker 1>guy in the I l instead of freaking everybody to

0:50:15.400 --> 0:50:17.600
<v Speaker 1>activating Daniel Murphy. It just doesn't make a lot of sense.

0:50:17.640 --> 0:50:20.200
<v Speaker 1>So I picked up Ronnie Rodriguez in this league. He's

0:50:20.239 --> 0:50:23.479
<v Speaker 1>been awesome. Another home run last night. Um my middle

0:50:23.520 --> 0:50:26.200
<v Speaker 1>infielder is a lead miss Diaz. So maybe that's something

0:50:26.200 --> 0:50:27.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking at here. Maybe I'm looking at at a

0:50:28.040 --> 0:50:33.439
<v Speaker 1>Nikki Lopez or something. I believe Austin Riley might be owned. Yeah,

0:50:33.440 --> 0:50:35.640
<v Speaker 1>he's so he's already owned because we have minded League

0:50:35.680 --> 0:50:38.399
<v Speaker 1>spots in my two homely, let's see if he's owning

0:50:38.400 --> 0:50:42.720
<v Speaker 1>this other one as well. Austin Riley is not owned

0:50:42.719 --> 0:50:44.759
<v Speaker 1>in one of these. So I'm gonna when I come in,

0:50:44.800 --> 0:50:46.399
<v Speaker 1>when we come in tomorrow and we're doing the show,

0:50:46.400 --> 0:50:49.799
<v Speaker 1>I'll let you know how much fab these guys go for.

0:50:50.000 --> 0:50:51.840
<v Speaker 1>Keep in mind it is at twelve team head to

0:50:51.920 --> 0:50:53.960
<v Speaker 1>head points league is the keeper league. We have two

0:50:53.960 --> 0:50:57.279
<v Speaker 1>minor league spots. Austin Riley probably a bad job by

0:50:57.280 --> 0:50:59.279
<v Speaker 1>me should have been owned, although I do have I

0:50:59.360 --> 0:51:01.480
<v Speaker 1>have Hayzer's Zaro, I have Kyle Tucker, so I do

0:51:01.600 --> 0:51:04.200
<v Speaker 1>have really good prospects in my minor league spots. So

0:51:04.640 --> 0:51:06.560
<v Speaker 1>you can only all own as many guys as you can.

0:51:06.880 --> 0:51:08.719
<v Speaker 1>So tomorrow when we come in, I'll let you know

0:51:08.760 --> 0:51:10.920
<v Speaker 1>exactly how much fabbiouse guys go from my home leagues.

0:51:11.000 --> 0:51:12.520
<v Speaker 1>Those are those are the numbers that we have to

0:51:12.680 --> 0:51:14.759
<v Speaker 1>look forward to. By the way, of course, when when

0:51:15.080 --> 0:51:18.600
<v Speaker 1>Laddo goes boom twice yesterday, that's what I'm playing in

0:51:18.680 --> 0:51:23.000
<v Speaker 1>my home leake so frustrating. Oh the bass bro, and

0:51:23.040 --> 0:51:24.919
<v Speaker 1>he's putting you into the ground right now. It's curb

0:51:24.960 --> 0:51:27.919
<v Speaker 1>stopping me. At the moment he's curb stopping you. Shout

0:51:27.920 --> 0:51:30.479
<v Speaker 1>out to seth Rollins, by the way, dating Becky Lynch, Yeah,

0:51:30.719 --> 0:51:33.040
<v Speaker 1>shout out to wrestling in general. Man, big day here

0:51:33.160 --> 0:51:36.160
<v Speaker 1>a w W gets a TV deal with Burner Broadcast.

0:51:36.239 --> 0:51:38.759
<v Speaker 1>Read that press release. I didn't read the press for

0:51:38.800 --> 0:51:41.680
<v Speaker 1>the press release, and it was just so old school written.

0:51:41.920 --> 0:51:45.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't know who wrote that my card on maybe,

0:51:46.040 --> 0:51:48.440
<v Speaker 1>but it was like T and T will have live

0:51:48.480 --> 0:51:51.680
<v Speaker 1>wrestling matches every week. That's how people speak. I like

0:51:51.840 --> 0:51:55.600
<v Speaker 1>that they kept emphasizing wrestling though it was like, not entertainment,

0:51:55.600 --> 0:51:58.200
<v Speaker 1>This isn't sports entertainment, Greg, this is wrestling. But it

0:51:58.280 --> 0:52:03.800
<v Speaker 1>was live wrestling matches? Are we here on? Tante Greg?

0:52:04.280 --> 0:52:10.240
<v Speaker 1>Vladimir Guerrero Junior? Last night, by the way, his three hits, actually,

0:52:10.239 --> 0:52:11.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if he had more than three hits.

0:52:11.440 --> 0:52:12.719
<v Speaker 1>Did he have more than three hits? I don't think

0:52:12.719 --> 0:52:14.759
<v Speaker 1>he did, doubt, but he had two home runs and

0:52:14.800 --> 0:52:17.279
<v Speaker 1>he had a single, all three of them off the

0:52:17.280 --> 0:52:21.799
<v Speaker 1>bat hundred and eleven miles per hour or higher hit

0:52:22.160 --> 0:52:24.839
<v Speaker 1>Hard Frank his second home run off a Raius Moronta, who,

0:52:24.880 --> 0:52:26.719
<v Speaker 1>by the way, is a pretty good reliever this year.

0:52:27.800 --> 0:52:32.480
<v Speaker 1>One and thirteen points seven miles per Frank lad Man

0:52:33.360 --> 0:52:35.799
<v Speaker 1>two dingers is exactly what you needed to see. Let's

0:52:35.800 --> 0:52:39.200
<v Speaker 1>calm down a little bit. Oh, all the all the

0:52:39.239 --> 0:52:43.319
<v Speaker 1>anti Vladimir Guerrero Junior fantasy owners, by the way out

0:52:43.320 --> 0:52:47.600
<v Speaker 1>there fantasy analysts said, you know, doing their victory laps,

0:52:47.920 --> 0:52:49.800
<v Speaker 1>told you lad mcgaro do when you're a prospect of

0:52:49.840 --> 0:52:53.000
<v Speaker 1>the prospect of a PROSPECTA what are you saying now?

0:52:53.200 --> 0:52:55.719
<v Speaker 1>Three hits last night, all a hundred eleven miles per

0:52:55.719 --> 0:53:00.600
<v Speaker 1>hour off the bat to home runs. He is who

0:53:00.600 --> 0:53:03.279
<v Speaker 1>we thought he is. Give this guy some time, man,

0:53:03.400 --> 0:53:06.000
<v Speaker 1>He is a generational talent. He is the son of

0:53:06.000 --> 0:53:10.960
<v Speaker 1>one of the best hitters in maybe baseball history. Greg's

0:53:10.960 --> 0:53:12.560
<v Speaker 1>give this kids some time. And now he's starting to

0:53:12.560 --> 0:53:14.440
<v Speaker 1>come around, and he does it in San Francisco of

0:53:14.440 --> 0:53:16.640
<v Speaker 1>all places. So what does that tell you, Greg? What

0:53:16.680 --> 0:53:21.080
<v Speaker 1>does that tell me? The guy has power that goes

0:53:21.120 --> 0:53:24.680
<v Speaker 1>beyond ballparks, Like it's it's like Jean Carlo Stanton level power.

0:53:24.640 --> 0:53:26.920
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't matter where he is. He had two bombs

0:53:26.960 --> 0:53:31.920
<v Speaker 1>yesterday in San Francisco his straightaway center field. I mean,

0:53:31.960 --> 0:53:34.520
<v Speaker 1>that's the kind of power this guy has. Like, let's

0:53:34.520 --> 0:53:36.759
<v Speaker 1>not worry about him. He's gonna be fine. You own him.

0:53:37.280 --> 0:53:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Pretty damn good. Blue Jay's defeat of the Giants last

0:53:39.520 --> 0:53:43.680
<v Speaker 1>night seven to three, we mentioned Nikki Lopez. Let's go

0:53:43.719 --> 0:53:46.120
<v Speaker 1>to Triki Lopez in Kansas City and Niki Lopez for you.

0:53:46.200 --> 0:53:49.719
<v Speaker 1>Elvis Andrew's owners, maybe a replacement because Alesandres left this

0:53:49.760 --> 0:53:54.840
<v Speaker 1>one with a hamstring injury um and Nikki Lopez does

0:53:54.880 --> 0:53:57.840
<v Speaker 1>that that short stuff eligibility right now in Yahoo Lopez

0:53:57.840 --> 0:54:01.120
<v Speaker 1>in his debut bad at second when one for four,

0:54:01.160 --> 0:54:03.759
<v Speaker 1>the run scored in rb I and a walk. You

0:54:03.800 --> 0:54:06.680
<v Speaker 1>know there's some speed with Lopez as well. He seems

0:54:06.719 --> 0:54:08.600
<v Speaker 1>to be an obvious if you could afford it, obviously

0:54:08.640 --> 0:54:11.160
<v Speaker 1>placements andres potentially, Yeah, I think that makes a lot

0:54:11.160 --> 0:54:13.120
<v Speaker 1>of sense here Again, this is a coveted spot to

0:54:13.200 --> 0:54:15.080
<v Speaker 1>be in in the Royals lineup, hitting right behind with

0:54:15.280 --> 0:54:19.440
<v Speaker 1>Mary Field right ahead of Modesty. He gets an RBI single,

0:54:20.000 --> 0:54:22.960
<v Speaker 1>he gets a walk, showing some of that plate discipline

0:54:22.960 --> 0:54:25.160
<v Speaker 1>as well, when I like even more than that. In

0:54:25.280 --> 0:54:28.440
<v Speaker 1>four at bets, zero strikeouts. This is part of the

0:54:28.480 --> 0:54:30.680
<v Speaker 1>player that he is. He makes a lot of contact.

0:54:30.880 --> 0:54:33.359
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't strike out all that often. For those who

0:54:33.360 --> 0:54:36.360
<v Speaker 1>play in deeper leagues a l only if Nikki Lopez

0:54:36.440 --> 0:54:38.360
<v Speaker 1>might be owned already, you want to look in house.

0:54:38.400 --> 0:54:41.439
<v Speaker 1>It looks like Logan Forsights is probably the short term

0:54:41.560 --> 0:54:45.239
<v Speaker 1>ad here. If you're an Elvis Andress owner and say

0:54:45.239 --> 0:54:46.920
<v Speaker 1>what you want about Logan Foresight. This is the guy

0:54:46.960 --> 0:54:50.560
<v Speaker 1>who used to be a quality baseball player and three

0:54:50.640 --> 0:54:53.440
<v Speaker 1>hits last night. He's now batting three oh five. I

0:54:53.440 --> 0:54:55.680
<v Speaker 1>don't think people realize this. So you know, if you

0:54:55.760 --> 0:54:58.239
<v Speaker 1>play in a deeper league and you lost Alvis Andrews again,

0:54:58.280 --> 0:55:00.880
<v Speaker 1>he's dealing with a hamstring in jury. We don't know

0:55:00.920 --> 0:55:03.400
<v Speaker 1>the severity of this yet, but a guy who depends

0:55:03.400 --> 0:55:07.080
<v Speaker 1>on his legs his speed, it wouldn't surprise me personally

0:55:07.080 --> 0:55:08.960
<v Speaker 1>if Elvis Andrews lands on the I l and if

0:55:08.960 --> 0:55:11.160
<v Speaker 1>you're looking in the house, it looks like Logan Forsythe

0:55:11.239 --> 0:55:13.640
<v Speaker 1>is the guy, and Greg kind of like Hunter Pence

0:55:13.760 --> 0:55:16.759
<v Speaker 1>a little blasts from the past. Logan Forsythe is playing well. Yeah,

0:55:16.840 --> 0:55:20.319
<v Speaker 1>Logan Forsythe absolutely playing well right now. He came in

0:55:20.680 --> 0:55:22.960
<v Speaker 1>um Or he moved over for first base to shortstop

0:55:23.520 --> 0:55:26.920
<v Speaker 1>once Andrews went down. I think to be over three

0:55:26.960 --> 0:55:30.480
<v Speaker 1>hundred here at this point. He could be the perfect

0:55:30.520 --> 0:55:33.560
<v Speaker 1>potential replacement for Elvis Andrews as well. What do you know, Greg,

0:55:33.840 --> 0:55:35.400
<v Speaker 1>the week that we pick up Hunter Pence is the

0:55:35.400 --> 0:55:37.799
<v Speaker 1>week that he starts to go ice cold. He went

0:55:37.840 --> 0:55:40.560
<v Speaker 1>over five with two strikeouts yesterday. Greg over five on

0:55:40.560 --> 0:55:44.040
<v Speaker 1>our team. I think where the jins there you go?

0:55:44.360 --> 0:55:47.480
<v Speaker 1>Danny Duffy not great, it's the wind. The last four

0:55:47.560 --> 0:55:50.080
<v Speaker 1>runs in five minutes, struck out six could have been

0:55:50.120 --> 0:55:53.879
<v Speaker 1>worse though totally, totally Texas could have been much worse.

0:55:54.360 --> 0:55:56.640
<v Speaker 1>So I mean, he comes away with a win, seven hits,

0:55:56.640 --> 0:56:01.680
<v Speaker 1>four and runs, only one walk, six strikeouts. Yet Danny

0:56:01.719 --> 0:56:04.520
<v Speaker 1>Duffy is a deeper league ad right now, fifteen teamers

0:56:04.520 --> 0:56:08.040
<v Speaker 1>are deeper Ale only fine twelve teamer Evehim on the

0:56:08.080 --> 0:56:10.640
<v Speaker 1>waiver wire. I don't really have high hopes for Danny

0:56:10.719 --> 0:56:13.040
<v Speaker 1>Duffy not getting a ton of swinging shrikes, and while

0:56:13.080 --> 0:56:16.000
<v Speaker 1>he only walked one on the season one yesterday in

0:56:16.000 --> 0:56:18.640
<v Speaker 1>that game, he has struggled with walks overall this season.

0:56:18.680 --> 0:56:20.960
<v Speaker 1>So I don't really have high hopes for Danny Duffy,

0:56:20.960 --> 0:56:22.560
<v Speaker 1>But in deeper leagues I do think that he should be.

0:56:23.200 --> 0:56:24.640
<v Speaker 1>It could have been Worth Greig, like it could have

0:56:24.640 --> 0:56:27.120
<v Speaker 1>been Shelby Miller bad on the other side of this

0:56:28.480 --> 0:56:32.680
<v Speaker 1>one and two thirds innings, pitched seven hits, eight earned runs,

0:56:33.000 --> 0:56:36.239
<v Speaker 1>two walks in one strikeout. Remember when Shelby Miller was good,

0:56:37.800 --> 0:56:41.120
<v Speaker 1>it was so long ago, not really like the Atlanta

0:56:41.160 --> 0:56:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Braves that he was like he was with the underlying

0:56:45.680 --> 0:56:48.640
<v Speaker 1>numbers were never as good. That was the problem, Arizona

0:56:48.719 --> 0:56:50.960
<v Speaker 1>with a little marco at Strata Arizona didn't like. Look

0:56:50.960 --> 0:56:53.960
<v Speaker 1>at that, which is also the ship miller Man with

0:56:54.200 --> 0:56:56.440
<v Speaker 1>What an interesting career Watch this kind of pitch. He

0:56:56.719 --> 0:56:58.759
<v Speaker 1>has such a crazy delivery. Used to hit his hand

0:56:58.760 --> 0:57:02.440
<v Speaker 1>on the dirt. You like scabs, all right, Let's take

0:57:02.440 --> 0:57:06.560
<v Speaker 1>a break. Paddock Kershaw next h
