1
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to Fantasy Pros MLB. This is leading

2
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,559
Speaker 1: off live. It is me, Joey p joe P's and Pia.

3
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 1: This of course is the Welsh. And yes, two days

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 1: in a row, we are here in person doing this show.

5
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:22,240
Speaker 1: Last night we had a lovely experience Chase Field, Arizona,

6
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 1: Corbin Carol home runs, immaculate innings, implosions, amazing things to

7
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: talk about here in the top of the show, and

8
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,520
Speaker 1: of course we're gonna have prospecting with the Welsh today.

9
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about all the other stuff that went

10
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 1: on in Major League Baseball. We got a big pitching

11
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: injury to discuss as well, which is unfortunate because I

12
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: feel like a jinx because I just said yesterday on

13
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 1: the show, isn't it nice? We've had everybody kind of

14
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 1: be healthy for these first few games. Not so much everybody.

15
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: So anyway, Welsh, great to see you again live and

16
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 1: in person. We are here in Arizona at cousin Donnie's

17
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 1: house again. As you saw in the intro there, it

18
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: was a fun evening. Lots of photos taken, friendships were made,

19
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,960
Speaker 1: incidents did happen, and a lot of food was consumed

20
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 1: in massive quantities.

21
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 2: Okay, the food for a second. If you guys didn't

22
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,119
Speaker 2: see on the countdown stream before the show, we showed

23
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 2: some of the videos. You guys might have seen, the

24
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 2: viral milkshake that take me out to the ballgame milkshake.

25
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 2: I don't we don't have to do the video. I

26
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 2: think it's a long show. But I attempted that it

27
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 2: was not worth it. No, it was a vanilla milkshake

28
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 2: with a bunch of candy put on top of it.

29
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: We then that was that'd be gentle to describe it

30
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: that way.

31
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 2: It was the biggest waste of money of all time.

32
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 2: But thank you fantasy.

33
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: It was made by a six year old, for a

34
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,960
Speaker 1: six year old inventive the milkshake. Daddy, look at my milkshake.

35
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 2: I'm may It was literally a vanilla shake with just

36
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 2: kitkats in it. Like, that's not super, that's not take

37
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 2: me out to the ball game. Then we got the stretch,

38
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 2: or we got the stretch, which was an eighteen inch

39
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 2: pastrami and chicken palm and cousin. Donnie and Donnie finished

40
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 2: that entire thing in thirty minutes. This and it was

41
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 2: filled with kettle chips, but not to be outdone. Incredible,

42
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 2: Joe created a new nickname for himself. He's now Joey

43
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: Buckets because Joe about every hour, no joke, literally consume

44
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 2: food out of bucket. And all he did was eat

45
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 2: food out of he ate bucket of nachos.

46
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 1: If it didn't come in a bucket, I you know,

47
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: don't want it. So here's my nacho bucket. Yeah, which

48
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: is really cool, Arizona diamond back cap. Very nice.

49
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 2: He kind of had a bucket of like a barbecue

50
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:32,519
Speaker 2: baked potato as well.

51
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: Well, it wasn't a bucket, I would have been a bucket.

52
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: The barbecue baked potato was delicious, excellent potato. Problem is

53
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: it needed way more pulled pork on it, way more chance.

54
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 2: Not to be outdone. The final bucket of the night

55
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 2: bucket of cookies. A bucket of cookies, delicious cookies, by

56
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 2: the way. And this is how you win in America, right.

57
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 2: You gave out a free sample on the way like

58
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: we're walking on the ballpark. Always had ooh, look at

59
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 2: the cookie place. The lady gave us a cookie. You

60
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 2: gave me a cookie.

61
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna come back to your place. I'm gonna buy

62
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 1: more cookies. So I ate cookies, and we also have

63
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: a whole couple of cookies here for.

64
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 2: I'm sure there's tons still in there.

65
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 1: Oh it's it's full. Oh it's full, it's full. Well,

66
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 1: let's get to the baseball for me yesterday, because Welsh

67
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: got to experience Corbyn Carroll hitting a home run in person,

68
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 1: live on a home run. Call Welsh the adrenaline that

69
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: went through your veins last night in that moment. Talk

70
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: to that. Tell us about what that felt like, not

71
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: only to see yourself get that first home run on

72
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 1: the board of all season, but also to see it

73
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: your boy Corbyn Carroll in person, do it for you?

74
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 2: Kind of magical if we're being honest, like I didn't.

75
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 2: This is my.

76
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 1: First a natural.

77
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,239
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, there's a couple of things I had mentioned.

78
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 2: Been to a bunch of diamondback games. Obviously, I've been

79
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 2: covering Corby Carroll since he got drafted. I've never seen

80
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 2: him hit a homer in person, and it was due He.

81
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: Had triple too.

82
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 2: He had a triple at the start, which I jumped

83
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 2: up and I was excited by the way. One of

84
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 2: my best bets of the year was for him to

85
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 2: lead the league in triple so that was nice. He

86
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 2: hits on Homer. I get on the board. Then I

87
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 2: get the tweets where people think I'm super smart. Not really.

88
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: That felt pretty great. It was It was awesome so

89
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 2: many elements of that game, but for Corbyn Carroll to

90
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 2: get me on the board h pretty dang great because

91
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 2: I got to look at Joe and I was like,

92
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 2: who's your home in Culbert today? And I you know,

93
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 2: I'm on.

94
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: I'm It was fun. We got to see Jordan lau that.

95
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: We got to see McGonagall last night. He looked really sharp.

96
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: To Alec Thomas, one of Welsh's favorite guys. Had some

97
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: great moments in the game yesterday. Mike Soroka had an

98
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: immaculate inning in ten strikeouts. Mediocre Mike Soroka somehow was

99
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 1: dominant yesterday. But things got real interesting once we got

100
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: bucket number two of food. Right, I went and I

101
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 1: got my little uh my little Sunday with the cookies, right,

102
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 1: and I got the bucket to take home to the chick.

103
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 2: You got ice cream, Yeah, I got ice cream and cookies.

104
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 1: And then I took the bucket home. I said, we'll

105
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 1: bring a bucket of cookies home for the children, because

106
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: I'm a lovely human being and I do nice things

107
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: for kids. So, uh, then we start to let's let's

108
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: watch this last inning before we go, and all of

109
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: a sudden it starts to unravel. Joe Ross comes in

110
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: and he gives up six Was it six earned runs?

111
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 1: I think it was right. It was six six runs

112
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: in two thirds of an inning. And here's the funniest part.

113
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 1: I went to Google at the morning. I wanted to

114
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: google Joe Ross. And did you see I put in

115
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: the show sheet we were released. No, it said Joe

116
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 1: Ross obituary and online memorial. If you see, that's exactly

117
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: what it said in there. And I screenshot it and

118
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 1: sent it here in the show sheet because I thought

119
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: it was funny. Actually, but it was a crazy game. Eventually,

120
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: the Diamondbacks did prevail. Great ballpark. Loved the ballpark. Uh

121
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: more escalators, less stairs? What are we doing here? We

122
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: gotta move some people around. And also some of the

123
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: lines with the food were a little ridiculous to you.

124
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 1: Second level needed more food stuff? Can you have to

125
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: keep having everybody go down to that first level? Other

126
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,599
Speaker 1: than that beautiful yeah, beautiful won't park.

127
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, fireworks great. I want to talk about Mike Soroka

128
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 2: for a second because the immaculate inning was incredible. He

129
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 2: was able to finish off Detroit. Definitely has got some

130
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 2: swing and miss issues, but they're not the A's right now.

131
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 2: They're not like a big ten, you know, strikeout team.

132
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 2: But Soroca he's kind of in this battle for like,

133
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 2: is he gonna stay in the rotation because when MARYL.

134
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 2: Kelly comes up, someone's got to go. Brandon Fott's pitching tonight,

135
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,119
Speaker 2: he's a candidate. Soroka is a candidate because he's pitched

136
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 2: in the bullpen before, but he's signed here to be

137
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 2: a starter. Yeah yeah, but thought's really not been a

138
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 2: bullpen guy, right. Nelson was a bullpen guy.

139
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: Can't take Nelson in anut of the rotation.

140
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 2: I think Soroka not only made like a case to

141
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 2: stay in the rotation, but I think he's making a

142
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 2: case from the fantasy side. His slurve was awesome last night.

143
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 2: He was setting up the fastball was going, but he

144
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 2: was setting up that slur for strikeouts. His command looked good.

145
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 2: I think he walked one. I was thoroughly impressed. He

146
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 2: got twenty swings. Twenty swings with a forty five percent

147
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 2: WFT rate off of that slurve. It looks like a

148
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 2: major league starter, and I think he's going to be

149
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 2: a streamable play for the near term. You know, maybe

150
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 2: not against the Dodgers or anything like that, but a

151
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 2: team like the Tigers is supposed to be a bigger,

152
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,239
Speaker 2: powerhouse offense. He shut them down. He had one messy inning,

153
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 2: he got right out of it, did it himself with

154
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 2: the great defense. I think Mike Troca someone we're gonna

155
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 2: have to pay attention to. And it was so cool

156
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 2: because the end was like, oh, if he gets three strikeouts,

157
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 2: he's going to get to ten strikes. He did it

158
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 2: in an immaculate inning, which was incredible. So it was awesome.

159
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 1: Not so awesome justin Verlander last night either he looks washed.

160
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, not great for somebody message and was like how

161
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 2: does it feel to like what was the word they used,

162
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 2: It was like, how does it feel that you're watching

163
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 2: former greatness completely disappear? If I if I could.

164
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: Even I'm sure he's fine about it. He's got a

165
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: couple dollars stashed away.

166
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you get to go home.

167
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, you would think he would, he would think he

168
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: would go home more. I don't know. Forty one years old,

169
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: still pitching, look like hest to love baseball. Also loving baseball.

170
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: Rokie Sazaki yesterday, who had a miserable spring. We'll see

171
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: how far this gets us to feeling good about Rokye

172
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: Sazaki allowed one run through four innings Monday against the Guardians,

173
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: four hits, two walks, struck out four. So Roki very

174
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 1: shaky certainly to begin the year. How far does this

175
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: start go for you and making you more confident in

176
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: Rokie going forward, let's say next week as a starter?

177
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think this is a really good start.

178
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 2: He had a thirty three percent with on the cutter,

179
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 2: sixty percent off of the splitter, and the fastball has

180
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 2: just kind of been a problem. But here he was

181
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 2: an impressive thing. He was. I mean, I guess he

182
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 2: really wasn't throwing his splitter versus right handed hitter, so

183
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 2: that might end up being a problem. He's gonna have

184
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 2: to be on with the cutter fastball because if he's

185
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 2: not right handed, hitters are gonna bang him around. I

186
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 2: still don't love the arsenal. He's gonna have some good outings.

187
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 2: He as kind of reminds me of Hilariously, this kind

188
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 2: of reminds me of like the Jacklider stuff in the

189
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 2: first year. You know, where it's just inconsistencies and you

190
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 2: know you need like three pitches that you can really

191
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 2: go to, and does Rokie have three? I just think

192
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 2: Roki's more spot stardy than anything else. But you know,

193
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 2: coming off of that, you gotta hold on to him,

194
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 2: see if he can go into innings. They're gonna keep

195
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 2: playing out six pitchers. I'm still gonna say that this

196
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 2: is a guy that's gonna just be a four plus

197
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 2: era throughout the year. Probably more of a reliever than

198
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 2: anything else, but relatively encouraging, especially that he got these

199
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 2: whiffs off of his secondaries and he wasn't trying to like,

200
00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 2: you know, lay on the fastball or anything.

201
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,839
Speaker 1: Also last night too, some good moments from cal Rawley

202
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,599
Speaker 1: RBI single the bottom of the ninth to get a

203
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: Mariner's win over those damn Yankees. Then you also got

204
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: your Alvarez two for five with a two run homer.

205
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: Another guy too that we wanted to be healthy going

206
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: into this year. Last year was so miserable for Alvarez.

207
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: He looks great. He's hitting the ball all over the place,

208
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,199
Speaker 1: off of roofs, over fences. That's what you want to

209
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: see out of Jorda on Alvarez. So if you draft

210
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: him and he got a discount on him, you gotta

211
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 1: feel pretty good about him. Also, you gotta feel pretty

212
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 1: good about the start for Jackson Meryl yesterday because to

213
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: run Homer for him, another guy that you want to

214
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: have get off to a good start for the confidence level.

215
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: Last year again marred by injury. Not what you really

216
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: want from Jackson Merrill. Also one other fantasy note too,

217
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: Ronald Acunya yesterday two for two double and to steal

218
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: Welsh stolen base for Ronald Ofcunya. Let's talk about that

219
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 1: because everybody you know, well, he'll never steal bases again.

220
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: It's never gonna happen. Oh my god, what's gonna go on?

221
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,680
Speaker 1: Not so much. I think Ronald Counya is still I

222
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: think forty bases, forty solng bases for him is still

223
00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: well within his reach.

224
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,319
Speaker 2: What are your thoughts it's manageable to do.

225
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

226
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 2: I was one of probably the biggest critics of like

227
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 2: is he going to run? But the Dominican Winter League.

228
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 2: He was running spring training, he was running, he was

229
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 2: trying to do in the WBC, Like it looks like

230
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 2: that was a commitment to him. So if he's thirty

231
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 2: plus stolen bases, there was a time where early in

232
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 2: the offseason I felt that, like Julio Rodriguez was the

233
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 2: better bet because thirty stolen basers thirty homers average, right anyway, Yeah, yeah, well,

234
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 2: also take out the injury stuff with Ronald Acunya that

235
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: has to follow him. But now that you can feel

236
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 2: a lot better about Acunya, not only from a power department,

237
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 2: but the speed, Like, yeah, he's easily a top five player.

238
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 2: You know, you can take him over Julio Rodriguez. I

239
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 2: think he feels good. On the other guys, just to mention,

240
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,319
Speaker 2: still a long ways to go. With Jackson Merrill, I

241
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 2: think it's encouraging that this happened. But the k's are down.

242
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 2: But also in this very very early ongo, hard hit

243
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 2: numbers and barrel numbers are down, So let's see where

244
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 2: that goes. He's getting yeah, he's getting the ball in

245
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 2: the air and he is pulling the ball very early,

246
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 2: so ample sizes. I mean, there's gonna be some people

247
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 2: that are gonna tell you don't pay attention to the

248
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 2: sample sizes for like a month. I think two weeks

249
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 2: is gonna start to give us like a decent outlook.

250
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 2: Things can still vary. I mean, you see this, like

251
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 2: we're so early in the season that bog and I

252
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 2: did an episode and he wrote from the night before like,

253
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 2: look at Jordan Walker has this super low batting average

254
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 2: and is expected as high one game. It completely flipped

255
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 2: the whole thing. So we're still in that territory where.

256
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 1: Jordan Walker's got off to a fantastic start, a fantastic start.

257
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: It would be great for the club. It's great for

258
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 1: the Cardinals if they can really start to cash in

259
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 1: on Walker. Weatherholt is the guy we think he is,

260
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 1: because yeah, I think baseball's for whatever. It's where I

261
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: think baseball is always better when the Cardinals are good, too,

262
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 1: when the Yankees are good, like you want those those

263
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:44,679
Speaker 1: premier teams.

264
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 2: I think as long as he they don't win sixty

265
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 2: nine games, right, as long as they come under seventy

266
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 2: games at support? Can I also mention, by the way,

267
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,679
Speaker 2: what the hell was last night about? We were so

268
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 2: I was surrounded by new Yorkers, not just this shmo

269
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 2: or we had to die. I have a BACKX fan

270
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 2: in front of us that were New Yorkers. We had

271
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 2: a listener who came to find.

272
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: Out out to Tommy d found us in our section,

273
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 1: came said, hello, were just.

274
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 2: I was in Indeed I was. We're in Arizona, and

275
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 2: I felt like I was in your home.

276
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,439
Speaker 1: It was crazy. Wherever I go is home. That's that's

277
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 1: the beautiful part about that. That's that's what it means.

278
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 1: We're New Yorkers. We're everywhere. I was looking trying to

279
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 1: see who the Padres played on the weekend too. I

280
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: forgot where they were on Saturday Sunday. Trying to talk

281
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: more about that Jackson Merril too, because I think sometimes

282
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: some of these numbers early on also get effected depending

283
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: on who guys are facing. Right, if they're facing elite pitching,

284
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 1: obviously they're gonna struggle a little bit more.

285
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 2: Or if you've only pitched it at home or away, right,

286
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:35,960
Speaker 2: So that's why they.

287
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 1: Were facing the Tigers. So they had a mix of

288
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 1: schoobl in their Flawherty in there.

289
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 2: Like you know something they didn't get for Lander.

290
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: So no, they didn't get for a lander. Also on

291
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: the Docke yesterday, One of my favorite things going into

292
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,719
Speaker 1: this year in terms of sleeper is Kyle Harrison, my

293
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,479
Speaker 1: boy right, who I loved when he was in San Francisco.

294
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 1: When he moved in the Devor's trade to Boston, I thought, Okay,

295
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: this is a really interesting get here, and then they

296
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,560
Speaker 1: flipped them right around again. But where he landed in

297
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: Milwaukee I think was very key because we've seen what

298
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: that Milwaukee pitching factory's done the last couple of years

299
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,319
Speaker 1: for guys, and it's been spectacular. And this first outing

300
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 1: for Kyle excuse me for Kyle Harrison, who by the way,

301
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: also qualifies at RP in a lot of leagues. Eight strikeouts,

302
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: one run, five innings Monday against the Rays, a team

303
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: that does not strike out historically all that much too.

304
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: I might add a career high sixteen swinging strikes eighty

305
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 1: seven pitches to get through the five frames. Welsh, this

306
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 1: was quite a debut. And he gets the Royals next

307
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: time out.

308
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 2: That'll be interesting to see. Especially. I was thinking CAGs, like,

309
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 2: what are they going to do? Is Cag's going to

310
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,199
Speaker 2: really start being platoony type of things?

311
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:38,439
Speaker 1: Hope?

312
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 2: Not, you know, one of the things I'm looking at.

313
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 2: It's interesting, like his fastball did a lot of damage.

314
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,079
Speaker 2: He had a thirty nine percent WITHFF rate on his fastball,

315
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 2: which is great, But he really doesn't throw anything to

316
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 2: lefties but fastball in slurves, and he had a zero

317
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,319
Speaker 2: percent whift rate on his slurve in that first game.

318
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 2: So I kind of want to see how that goes.

319
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 2: Because he's got a full arsenal against right handed pitchers

320
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 2: shows and his sinker was good, change up, got a whip,

321
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 2: fastball was going. How is he going to work against lefties?

322
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 2: If you have strong lefties on him, are they going

323
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 2: to bang them around? But guess guess what it was

324
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 2: just it was a solid outing. There's some really good

325
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 2: high strikeout potential, and I'm very excited for guys like

326
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 2: Mike Soroka, also a slurve guy, Kyle Harrison. I'm excited

327
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 2: to see how games two and three go for them,

328
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 2: to see if there's some sustainability to really trusting them

329
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 2: as guys that you want to put out, you know,

330
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 2: like at worst as streamers, and Kyle Harrison I think

331
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 2: might even be a notch above Soroka. The only thing

332
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 2: about Soroka in the streaming department is like it is

333
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 2: an immensely great defense across the board and a solid offense.

334
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 2: Just the worst bullpen in baseball. Just pointing out again,

335
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 2: all right, Boba shit.

336
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: Yesterday we talked about buying on him right all the

337
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: stride guns. Oh my god, this guy is falling well.

338
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: Not only did it make a nice play in the field,

339
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: but also drove in a pair of runs yesterday and

340
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 1: four to two win. By the way, Devin Williams also

341
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 1: looking very sharp at the end of that game. Wow,

342
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: for all the stat nerds and all the it's the

343
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: vertical angle of the ball or the hills through and

344
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: then the pills back around into the thirty seven degree angle.

345
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: You love Devin Williams last night. Also, I love Jack

346
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: Lder last night. That's right, I said it. I said

347
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: to Welsh, Look how good Jack Lder did. See one

348
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 1: of my favorite sleepers who was on my all sleeper

349
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 1: team this year, Jack Lder, I told you we made

350
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 1: up this year. Everything is good Jack Lder. Two runs,

351
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: six innings, struck out eight eight and Arranger's victory against

352
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: the Orioles, who, by the way, that Orioles lamp. He's

353
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 1: started getting together a little bit.

354
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 2: I kind of hate I got to be honest with

355
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 2: you like that. Obviously we were working towards last year

356
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 2: with Joe's ridiculousness to get him on the right page

357
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 2: with Jack Lder. But now it's actually annoying me. Well,

358
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 2: it's because you're claiming him. You're like, I'm the Jack

359
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 2: Lder guy, and it's and it's like, all I want

360
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 2: is my listeners to go find clips of you last

361
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 2: year slamming that's crazy.

362
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: That's like saying it's like saying oh, this was bad

363
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: when it was bad and telling everybody this is not

364
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: as good as you think it is. But then at

365
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: a certain point you say, hey, this is also not

366
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: as bad as I said it was. Now you got

367
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 1: to buy back into this player. This is business. I hate,

368
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: not personal, but he does hate.

369
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 2: You know what.

370
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 1: On my all sleeper take, you made it personal.

371
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 2: That was the thing. It wasn't about the game. It

372
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 2: was about You're like, uh, you can get the baby

373
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 2: ally or the only reason he's got his opportunity that

374
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 2: you know, so.

375
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: Many guys with a four and a half era who

376
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 1: walked the ballpark and get called up all the time,

377
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 1: all the time, let's get some of the young guys here.

378
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about Parker Messick, who I know a

379
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: couple of people in the chat have been dying to

380
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: discuss shut out the Dodgers for six innings, struck out five.

381
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: We talked about hi yesterday, like, don't drop Parker Messick,

382
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: right Jo, because he's going against the Dodgers. That's crazy town.

383
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: And this is why we said hang on to this

384
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: player because he has a lot of talent. Great start

385
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: for him. Chase Burns also a good start. I was

386
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 1: not as big a Chase Burns, that's all. Well. She

387
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 1: yesterday five innings, struck out seven against the Pirates, Rerex

388
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: and Ashcroft in that same game, two run, six innings,

389
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: good outing for him, and then Cole Young three for

390
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 1: four with a double. So the young kids were getting

391
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 1: after it, which brings us to respecting with the Welsh.

392
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 2: I think we got a new video here too. Look

393
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 2: at that.

394
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,160
Speaker 1: Whoa prospecting with the Welsh? All right, So Welsh, let's

395
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 1: talk about some of the guys early on too, as

396
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: minor league baseball is gonna begin soon that we should

397
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 1: really be paying attention to on our radars. I know

398
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 1: we spoke a little bit on Yesterdays show about Spencer Jones,

399
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,000
Speaker 1: but I think some other guys too needed some focus,

400
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 1: especially in those deeper leagues. And of course the Dynasty Streets.

401
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 2: Is very interesting use of the word pay as well.

402
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 2: Because the thing we're gonna come out the top with

403
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:34,679
Speaker 2: is we had two big deals get struck yesterday for

404
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 2: two pretty important prospects. Cooper Pratt with the Milwaukee Brewers

405
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 2: signed an eight year deal I think around fifty million

406
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 2: dollars and a lot of people were kind of shocked

407
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 2: about this one. You're gonna be shocked more shocked by

408
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 2: the next one. But Cooper Pratt one of the glog,

409
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,919
Speaker 2: the blob of prospects that this team has, and I

410
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 2: think a lot of people are looking and they're like, well,

411
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 2: you know, where are they going to fit all of

412
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 2: these players? But Cooper Pratt is a plus defender, He's

413
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 2: got some really solid power potential. His batting average kind

414
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 2: of tank last year unfortunately, but so far this year

415
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 2: he's already got a stolen base up to sixty seven average.

416
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 2: He's in Triple A. And I think this contract something

417
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,359
Speaker 2: I learned too. By the way, I did not know this.

418
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm always learning. Something about the PPI

419
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:23,360
Speaker 2: program is that if you sign your contract extension before

420
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 2: you make your debut, that player is not eligible for PPI,

421
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 2: which means that player is not eligible for a Rookie

422
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 2: of the If they win Rookie of the Year, the

423
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 2: team would not get a draft pick. I didn't even

424
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 2: know that. It kind of changes the scope because typically

425
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 2: when we see a guy like this sign a deal,

426
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 2: we're like, Oh, that guy's coming up to the majors immediately.

427
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,119
Speaker 2: Not necessarily because the team screwed themselves out of it

428
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 2: by doing this, but Cooper Pratt, in my eyes, when

429
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 2: they go and put David Hamilton out, who by the way,

430
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 2: was a sneaky fantasy option three stolen bases early on.

431
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 2: Cooper Pratt, this deal to me, is going to get

432
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,199
Speaker 2: him up in the majors this month and he's going

433
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,119
Speaker 2: to be the third baseman for the Brewers. He's a

434
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 2: plus defender.

435
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 1: Makes sense considering they move Caleb durberin in the offseason

436
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: two that kind.

437
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 2: Of opens absolutely and David Hamilton could play, but play

438
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,920
Speaker 2: a super util role, so he's not as exciting from

439
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 2: the fantasy perspective. He's someone to pay attention to, but

440
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 2: deeper leagues you can. What that does is that takes

441
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 2: us to the next guy. And this guy just signed

442
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:26,199
Speaker 2: the biggest contract extension by a non debuted player in

443
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball history. That's more than Jackson Surio did.

444
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:34,439
Speaker 2: And it's Colt Emerson. Cold Emerson at what is insane

445
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 2: to me, only twenty years old still because I was

446
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 2: at his debut out here in Arizona. The young short

447
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 2: step is up at tripa A hitting three point fifty seven,

448
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 2: already banged his first homer. He is a doubles machine.

449
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 2: I don't know what the power is going to end

450
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 2: up looking like, but what I do know about cold

451
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 2: Emerson is this is another A plus defender. He makes

452
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 2: tons of contact. He might go the route of a

453
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 2: Jackson Merrill where it's just going to take a little

454
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,439
Speaker 2: time for him to step into power. But he is

455
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 2: in the worst hitting environment you could be out there.

456
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 2: So I think how you have to approach cold Emerson

457
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 2: is this is a guy that is going to be

458
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 2: a plus batting average plus runs if he can get

459
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 2: to the top of the order, that's going to help

460
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 2: in the run in RBI department. Stolen bases and power

461
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 2: are going to be kind of dicey, so you know,

462
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 2: it's a better real I think he might be a

463
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 2: better real life player than fantasy. But he's got so

464
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 2: much contact, so much good offensive skillability that's floating out there.

465
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 2: I was at a AFL game. He had like five

466
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 2: doubles in a game, Like he was five for five.

467
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 2: They were all doubles. It was Bizerco. It's just I

468
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 2: don't know where the power is going to translate. But

469
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 2: he is twenty years old and he's gon get bigger,

470
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 2: and he just got one of the biggest contracts out there.

471
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 2: Colt Emerson in TRIPAA PPI is done, but guess what

472
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 2: they might want him tomorrow. So both Pratt and Emerson

473
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 2: are players you should be paying attention to over the

474
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 2: next couple of weeks. Could they could be up And

475
00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 2: I think cold Emerson is a much better offensive bet.

476
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 1: All right, Next up here to discuss some of the

477
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 1: guys that did not get giant extensions yet, Yes, emphysens

478
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: of the yet emphasizing that Connor Griffin, let's talk about

479
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 1: him for a moment too. Another player then, obviously number

480
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 1: one prospect in baseball. Everybody's very anxious to see. How's

481
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: that start for Connor Griffin? So far?

482
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, so so far. You know, all systems go five

483
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 2: for ten. He's rattled up a couple stolen bases, hard

484
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 2: to hit numbers look good.

485
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 1: You know.

486
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,679
Speaker 2: He had a little rough ending to the spring, and

487
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 2: maybe he started off.

488
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,160
Speaker 1: Hot and then kind of fizzled a little bit towards

489
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 1: the end.

490
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I don't know if that I don't know

491
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 2: if it mattered what he did in the spring. That

492
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,400
Speaker 2: was kind of my take on it. Everyone was like, well,

493
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 2: if he's amazing, they'll they'll bring him up, and blah

494
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 2: blah blah. I just don't think the Pirates cared, like

495
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 2: whatever he did good or bad, great, this is cool.

496
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 2: We saw we're gonna sit down a triple A and

497
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 2: then they're going to regroup. They're going to regroup what

498
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:52,879
Speaker 2: the team is. They've still got about two weeks to

499
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:54,919
Speaker 2: figure out if they want to bring him up and

500
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 2: they can be eligible for PPI. Now the Pirates their team,

501
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 2: they completely batch the Paul skiin situation, which would have

502
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,920
Speaker 2: garnered them a first round pick. I think they could

503
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 2: be looking at this situation trying to get a contract

504
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 2: done behind the scenes, then they call him up, then

505
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 2: they sign it, so he is eligible for a first

506
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 2: round pick. But the more important thing is he's balling

507
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 2: out right now. Five for ten. Like I said, two

508
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 2: stolen bases, hard hit numbers, look good. My friend's over

509
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,119
Speaker 2: at prospect Savant has a lot of the triple A

510
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,199
Speaker 2: data that's put out there and they do and he

511
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 2: does his own scoring. Connor Griffin's at the very top

512
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 2: of the scoring. Guess what, shocker, number one prospect. He's

513
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 2: still awesome. He is, in my opinion, the only prospect

514
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 2: that is a must stash, must own it. There's lots

515
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 2: of guys you're gonna want to pick us.

516
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:43,920
Speaker 1: I can say most of the good ones already broke camp.

517
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 2: So yeah, one hundred percent. If if weather Holder McGonagall,

518
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 2: our boy Magoo from last night was out there, he's

519
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 2: the one that you just want to go own now.

520
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 2: But I'm not breaking any news to any of you.

521
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 2: But that doesn't mean there aren't some other great debuts.

522
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: And one of the guys that Welsh was on this

523
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: preseason also, Charlie Condon gotten off to a good start.

524
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: He with the past.

525
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, also five ten, five for ten. These guys hitting

526
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 2: over five hundred or very very early on in their

527
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 2: Triple A debuts, but five for ten with two homers,

528
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 2: Rockies strikeouts TJ.

529
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 1: Rumfield.

530
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 2: It's my big argument has been did I think that

531
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 2: Condon was going to break camp with the team. No,

532
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 2: not necessarily because they did have some options. But it

533
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 2: is TJ. Rumfield going to hold him down or any

534
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 2: of these Detroit Johnston going to hold him down? I

535
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 2: don't think so. Charlie Condon is absolutely needing to call

536
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 2: it Triple A again, good hard hit numbers. He could

537
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:36,159
Speaker 2: play corner, outfield and first base. From a prospecting with

538
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 2: the Welsh perspective, I do think you need to pay

539
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 2: attention to him because our excitement was always if Condon

540
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 2: is in Colorado, look at the power potential. Well, guess what,

541
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 2: he's at the highest level. He's fixed some of his

542
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 2: strikeout issues and he is one step away from being

543
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 2: up there. I don't know if it'll be in April.

544
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,400
Speaker 2: Maybe I think the rock It would behook the Rockies

545
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,400
Speaker 2: try for it. What do you got to lose? Try

546
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 2: for your first round pick with the PPI program. But

547
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 2: I I think by May first, if we don't see

548
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,119
Speaker 2: Charlie con and I'd be very surprised, So keep a

549
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 2: very very close eye, especially if you're going to be

550
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 2: chasing power.

551
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 1: All right, Laska on the list is a Dodger prospect.

552
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 1: Let's talk about him.

553
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 2: Wellh hottest hitter in the minor leagues right now. We

554
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 2: have not had a double triple. We don't have the

555
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,919
Speaker 2: lower systems have started. It's only been triple A. But

556
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 2: there are two players that have already registered eight hits

557
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 2: in the miners. One of them is William Bergola, who

558
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 2: we're not talking about with the White Sox. I think

559
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 2: he's interesting, but the White Sox we haven't said this

560
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 2: a long time. They have way too many good players

561
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 2: right now. Sam Antonacci is good, but William Bargola has

562
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 2: a bunch of hits. But the big impact is coming

563
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 2: from James Tibbs, who was a Giant's prospect traded to

564
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,679
Speaker 2: the Red Sox, and then of course the Dodgers do

565
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 2: it and they ruin everybody's time. He is currently eight

566
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 2: for thirteen with two homers very early on, absolutely crushing

567
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 2: the ball and smoking the ball. If you get him

568
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 2: into the majors, watch out. That is a hitter, friendly,

569
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 2: right handed, pull side environment for the Dodgers. Now, clearly

570
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 2: we know that his team is stacked, beyond stacked, but

571
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,199
Speaker 2: they are one injury away from James Tibbs giving up,

572
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 2: and he is lighting the world on fire. So I

573
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 2: think he's someone you gotta to really pay attention to

574
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,359
Speaker 2: and redraft because they're not afraid to bring up those guys.

575
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,880
Speaker 2: They gave Freeland the opportunity. James Tibbs with an injury

576
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 2: could be up soon, but it is going to take

577
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 2: that and he is hot as hot compete.

578
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: And that of course is prospecting with the wels should

579

590
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 1: Welsh fun facts floating around the internet.

591
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 2: So fun.

592
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 1: Joey Weinberg got to ten straight times now on base

593
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: to start a season two to four with a walk

594
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: and two run scored mon against the Phillies. So Joey

595
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,359
Speaker 1: Wimer just just won't quit, at least for now, and

596
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:08,199
Speaker 1: then Carry Carpenter can't get hired. Carry Carpenter now has

597
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 1: the most strikeouts in history by a Tiger in his

598
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 1: first four games. Ten strikeouts for real Carpenter.

599
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 2: I think Soroka sat him down three or four times

600
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 2: a couple.

601
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,360
Speaker 1: Of times last night, but tend to open the year.

602
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 1: That's not a good feeling for Kerry Carpenter. Not to start.

603
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 1: You want but an opportunity, perhaps for a trade. Would

604
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: you be somebody kicking the tires on a Kerry.

605
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,639
Speaker 2: Carpenter thousand percent? Well okay, yes, Like I'm a believer

606
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,360
Speaker 2: in Carry Carpenter. I don't know if he's quite trade

607
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 2: material if anything. I think Carry Carpenter's really bad run

608
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 2: is going to lead to people wanting to dump him.

609
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 2: But he's a lead off hitter for the Tigers. If not,

610
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,679
Speaker 2: if it was like some super cheap throw in Like

611
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 2: I do believe in Cary Carpenter. He's gonna get going.

612
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 2: He's not going to go the way of the athletics

613
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 2: right now and be the worst strikeout guys. And yeah,

614
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 2: carry Carpenter was really never even the strikeout issue that

615
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,200
Speaker 2: the Tigers are freaking out about why they wanted Magou

616
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,639
Speaker 2: to be up top. It was more like Riley Green

617
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 2: and Spencer torkal Sin. So I think carry O get

618
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 2: right here, but it doesn't help, especially when they live

619
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 2: in this like little Pseudo, you know, Platoon world and

620
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 2: Kerry Carpenter, that they might be like, all right, let's

621
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 2: sit them for a couple more days. So it's definitely

622
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 2: a bad start, but I'd be paying attention to him.

623
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: Also a fun fact, I saw this yesterday. The Mets

624
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: team shop has a new item and it might be

625
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: the most Italian thing ever, even more than my new

626
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:27,440
Speaker 1: nickname Joey Buckets. It is the new Valore track suit

627
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: that you can purchase. I think we have a picture

628
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: of it here. Let's take a look the Valore track

629
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 1: suit New York Mets Style. No, I'm not making this up.

630
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 1: The picture is made up, obviously. Rip mister Gandelfini, one

631
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 1: of the great actors of all time. But I saw

632
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 1: it on the internet yesterday. It exists in the METS.

633
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 1: I am I gonna order it? No, But if someone

634
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 1: bought it for me, would I wear it? Probably yes,

635
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie.

636
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 2: I've never worn a tracksuit. I don't think I would

637
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 2: look good as a tracksuit guy.

638
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 1: I think I could pull it off, but again I

639
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 1: might get pulled over. More on that later in the show.

640
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 1: Let's do some three up in three down here as well.

641

Speaker 1: Three up and three down. Great night for Josel two

647
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: A four four with two dingers. Lance mccullors, Here we

648
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 1: go again, Lance mccullors. We love the big Lance mccolors. Start.

649
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,639
Speaker 1: You can sense people picking them up off the waiver wires.

650
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:26,439
Speaker 1: I can't wait, It's.

651
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:27,360
Speaker 2: Gonna be all Get ready to come.

652
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: Seven innings, one run, ball stroke out, nine but this

653
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 1: is it against the Red Sox. I mean, look Red

654
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,680
Speaker 1: Sox lineup, maybe not as stout as one might hope

655
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 1: it would be. Also, Edward Cabrera making his Cub's debut.

656
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,960
Speaker 1: Six strikeouts, six shutout innings, so that is strong to

657
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 1: see as well.

658
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 2: I love Edward Cabrera. I love the environment with the Cubs.

659
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 2: When that win pushes in, it's only gonna help him more.

660
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 2: I think Edward Cabrera is gonna just be sneaky all year,

661
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 2: just sneaky, sneaky, sneaky.

662
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 1: One of our fades going into the season, Welsh was

663
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:58,040
Speaker 1: Ranger Suarez. Suarez was tagged for four runs and seven

664
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: hits and four and a third, so not great for him.

665
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: I would also say Joe Ross would make the downs.

666
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 1: Yesterday Joe Ross gets it down, but he's not. He's

667
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 1: not dead, He's still alive. I don't know if you'll

668
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: get designated for assignment after I said, but I was

669
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 1: the sarcasm of the crowd too, because after Joe Ross

670
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 1: came out, then they brought another picture in he couldn't

671
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: find the strike, So I think I had three pictures

672
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 1: in the one inning, right, the third guy finally threw

673
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 1: a strike and the crowd standing ovation for the wit.

674
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 2: We went from because we were it was like the

675
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 2: six or whatever, eat nothing blowout.

676
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 1: We're like, all right, we'll leave early. We got a

677
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 1: show in the morning.

678
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 2: Joey Buckets needed his bucket quick.

679
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 1: It was running out of bucket, so we.

680
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 2: Walked down to get it, and then we go and

681
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 2: we're like, hey, let's watch this half inning. Here. I

682
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 2: went from like this high, I'm like, who better the day?

683
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 2: Check Cormyn Carroll, check immaculately, this is the best time.

684
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 2: And then like my mood started going down and down,

685
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 2: and there's this drunk guy sitting next to me or

686
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 2: standing next to me, and we just start talking and

687
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 2: we're just screaming about the bullpen. So I go from

688
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 2: my voice a little hot, now.

689
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 1: It's tweeting and texting me about bullpen. Yeah.

690
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 2: I went from the high of highs to like, I'm screaming,

691
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 2: I am mad at all the Tiger fans.

692
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 1: So many Tiger fans. Oh yeah, just a mass which

693
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 1: I did not expect, you know, like Cubs, Dodgers, Yankee,

694
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 1: Like there's national fan bases of teams. Tigers was a

695
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 1: little surprising to me. There was that many Tiger fans there.

696
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 1: I know it was Opening day. It was a great vibe.

697
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 1: Ballpark was great, it was packed, it was goodbye.

698
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,959
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, though I've been saying this, and Joe agreed.

699
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 2: He was like, you're right, this is one of the

700
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 2: worst bullpens out there. Just pay attention because, like as

701
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 2: much as I have been a proponent of Zach Gallon,

702
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 2: I think if Merril Kelly's floating out there, I'm talking

703
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 2: about Mike Soroka, you actually might not be able to

704
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,959
Speaker 2: like really win with any of these guys. With this bullpen.

705
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 2: They had an eight nothing lead and it.

706
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 1: Was below Betting them is difficult too. You bet the

707
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 1: first five yesterday, you can, thank God, but once you

708
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: turn things over after five innings, they had.

709
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 2: No they have no left hander, and they got a

710
00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 2: bunch of Jabbroni's in there that that couldn't throw strikes.

711
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 2: They literally couldn't throw strikes. So just something to keep

712
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 2: in mind. Even though I know I've been mister pro

713
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 2: about some of these guys, it's gonna be really tough

714
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,560
Speaker 2: to roster, and especially wins in a wins league, you

715
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 2: might actually get a little bit more out of quality

716
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 2: start league because the Diamondbacks might be prone to say

717
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 2: we have to have Gallon go six, we have to

718
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 2: have Soroka go six. But in a wins based league,

719
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 2: it really might be hard.

720
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,959
Speaker 1: To come by. Razor in the chat reminding everybody too,

721
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 1: hey remember last year's twelve strikeout performance cert Lands mccolors

722
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: and the next couple of starts we have any rams same.

723
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 2: But he's just gonna get hurt like he is.

724
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: I'm lucky he gets hurt because you get a roster

725
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: spot back. The worst part is when he goes out

726
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 1: there and he's got a good matchup and then he

727
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 1: gives up six Herd.

728
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 2: I guarantee he's going to get I don't want him to,

729
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 2: but I guarantee he's gonna get hurt.

730
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 1: Like I'm more down to O'Neil Cruz. Oh for four

731
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 1: two strikeouts. O'Neil Cruz is in his feelings right now.

732
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: It's not a good start to the year for him,

733
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: all right. Also not a good start last night for

734
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: Cody Ponds, who ruined my bed, but really ruined my

735
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 1: evening because Cody Ponce is a great story, a guy

736
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: who worked his way back to the major leagues. We

737
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 1: all know that leaves the major leagues, goes to the KBO,

738
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: learns new pitches, learn some things, ends up becoming MVP dominates.

739
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 1: There comes back, gets signed by the Toronto Blue Jays.

740
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,080
Speaker 1: We were in the World Series last year and then

741
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 1: his first start started to look great. Guys, first strikeout.

742
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,479
Speaker 1: Things are rolling along for a couple of innings. Then

743
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 1: there's a play in the field. He's running out in

744
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 1: case you missed it, towards the second base first base area,

745
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 1: and something gives there in the leg. He keeps saying,

746
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 1: need discomfort. Some people are speculating everything from ACL to

747
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: hamstring to hyper extension. We don't know yet. We'll find

748
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 1: out more today. But this is brutal because I know

749
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 1: you and I both have a lot of shares of

750
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 1: Cody Ponce, and this is just it's heartbreaking because you

751
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 1: want the guy to be good. But this is a

752
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: heartbreaking and frustrating because we were also depending on him

753
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 1: to be good and a useful part in was one

754
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: of these late pitchers we kind of stashed. So let's

755
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,280
Speaker 1: hope for the best here, but certainly getting carted off

756
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: does not feel good at least.

757
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 2: No, it's brutal. I mean he was my number one,

758
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 2: like take at the end of your draft, and you know,

759
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 2: Velo jumped two miles per hour from when he was

760
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 2: there to now now he got the kick change. I

761
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 2: thought everything was primed up here. What can you do?

762
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 2: What can you do about this? You just got to

763
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 2: cross your fingers that this is not some devastating knee injury.

764
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 2: But like to your point, you don't go down like

765
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 2: that and then have to be carted out for it

766
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:16,960
Speaker 2: to be something where like he'll make his next start.

767
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 2: So I would say, your best case scenario is it

768
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 2: like it's a you know, twisted knee and he's going

769
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 2: to be out for like a month, and.

770
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: Worst best cases a month, the worst cases of the year.

771
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would.

772
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 1: I would agree it's either if it's a c L,

773
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 1: it's a year. If it's MCL a couple months, that's

774
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 1: kind of the mid range things. If it's like a

775
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,000
Speaker 1: little MCL tear or something like that, that's less significant,

776
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: especially for a picture, depending on what need is. I

777
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 1: can't remember which one it was.

778
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 2: Its right knee. Would would you preemptively if there is

779
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,480
Speaker 2: like you know, Soroka or I'm not thinking of any

780
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 2: other names, but you know, like a half decent starter

781
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 2: that's out there. Would you premptively drop Cody Ponce and

782
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 2: not wait for the I L assuming this is bad, or.

783
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: Would you have rolling waivers and you can do that

784
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 1: it's provocative, it's not. I mean, Parker Messick was out

785
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,479
Speaker 1: there like, that's a guy that's interesting to Yeah, that

786
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 1: that type of guy, Like I'm origin in Parker Messicka

787
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: is I feel like he's got a rotation spot. As

788
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 1: you said, there's still a chance I Roka could end

789
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 1: up with the bullpen.

790
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 2: I mean after last night, there's not but I know

791
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 2: what you're saying.

792
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,799
Speaker 1: It's all right. Also, injury notes, to get to tan

793
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 1: or Bibey's going to start tonight against the Dodgers with

794
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 1: that shoulder. More on that in a second. Carlos Rodin

795
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 1: faced live hitters fifty pitch live batting session on Sunday,

796
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 1: so that's good news and no problems. They are Also

797
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 1: Garrett Cole is scheduled this week to throw some more

798
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,320
Speaker 1: two to live hitters. That's also positive, and Spencer Streider

799
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,320
Speaker 1: coming back from that obleak is expected to face hitters

800
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 1: in live VP within the next week or so. So

801
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: hopefully we'll get him back in the next couple of

802
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:47,239
Speaker 1: weeks ahead, and we do have some final after deliberation,

803
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 1: after some voting going on, and we put it up

804
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,919
Speaker 1: on the live stream yesterday and people worded for Leda

805
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:53,359
Speaker 1: La Cruz. But we also put it on some other

806
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: channel social media and our YouTube, and it was apparently

807
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 1: the Jan Soto jersey that was the big on. I

808
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 1: did not vote, not one time, just so you know,

809
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 1: but the one Sodo jersey is going to be the

810
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: home run jersey. So let's take a look at the

811
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 1: home run board because guess who's on it. This guy

812
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:14,160

Speaker 1: zero right now, so hopefully we'll get on the board. Yeah.

817
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 2: I just want to point out super fun Ellie's super

818
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 2: fun everything like that. It was always one soda, Like.

819
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,160

Speaker 1: one stars on the side.

821
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 2: It's a beautiful jersey.

822
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 1: One jersey that awesome. That would be that I would

823
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 1: have voted for and I would create a dummy account.

824
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 2: It's very very cool. Remember on the fins.

825
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:52,480

Speaker 1: Let's get to our home run calls, by the way

851
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: as well, and for me today, I am going to

852
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,720
Speaker 1: go with Brent Rooker. Brent Rooker is my choice for today.

853
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 1: I want to get that Athletics offense going. Welsh was

854
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 1: talking smack about him all yesterday.

855
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,440
Speaker 2: They set a record for the most strike like they're horrible.

856
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 1: Well, now we got to turn things around. We got

857
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 1: Jose Suarez on the mountain, three home runs in his career,

858
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 1: Rooker against him, so let's get that going here for

859
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 1: Brent Rooker. That's my home run call today. Welsh, where

860
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:24,360
Speaker 1: are you going for your dinger?

861
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 2: In honor of the Jersey choice for the home run call,

862
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:31,200
Speaker 2: which actually, by the way, had no connection because I

863
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,720
Speaker 2: made this well before I even knew that Wan Soto

864
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:35,439
Speaker 2: was going to be it. I'm ticking one Soto going

865
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 2: against Andre Palante. I'm going to try to make it

866
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,919
Speaker 2: two for two. I should maybe kind of thought about

867
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 2: kateel Marte keep going with the Diamondbacks, but give me

868
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 2: some one Soto action today for number two on the board.

869
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,840
Speaker 1: And that brings us to our best bets of the

870
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:50,799
Speaker 1: day with Joey p and the Welsh brought to you

871
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 1: by hard Rock Bet. Make sure you go to hard

Speaker 1: Rock Bet for all of your bets, and right now

Speaker 1: it is Florida's sportsbook, and of course you get a

874
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,359
Speaker 1: twenty five dollars bonus bet in there too. You have

875
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,760
Speaker 1: a team for March Madness that can get the buzzer

876
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 1: beater and win and cover. So now is the best

877
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 1: time here for March Madness if you are involved in that.

878
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,120
Speaker 1: To get over to hard Rock Bet place your bets today.

879
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,800
Speaker 1: They've got boosts going on all the time as well.

880
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 1: For me, for my bet yesterday was unfortunate. I thought

881
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 1: that was a lock with Cody Ponds on the mound

882
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 1: there against Colorado. It did not turn out as such.

883
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 1: So we're gonna go for the Los Angeles Dodgers today.

884
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:28,879
Speaker 1: We're gonna go with them on the run line show,

885
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 1: Hey Otani on the mound, So minus one and a

886
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: half on the run line minus one twenty, so a

887
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,840
Speaker 1: little bit of juice here. But the Dodgers are thirteen

888
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 1: and five straight up in their last eighteen home games.

889
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,279
Speaker 1: Otani's on the mound against Biby as well, coming off

890
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 1: that shoulder injury, so I'm not sure how long he's

891
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 1: going to pitch today either. I think he's going to

892
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: be very monitored heavily, So I think this is a

893
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 1: great opportunity to take a little bit of that juice,

894
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 1: maybe go two units on that Welsh How about you

895
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 1: where you're going for your best bet at the day?

896
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, so far with three and one, so we're having

897
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 2: a pretty good start. Last night, the first five Diamondbacks

898
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 2: did cash, so we are going to be going to

899
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 2: a little bit dicey. But her Man Marquez is on

900
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 2: the mound for the Padres here and he's going up

901
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 2: against the Giants who have had some swing and mississues

902
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,960
Speaker 2: so far. And what I'm really fascinated by is her

903
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 2: Man Marquez in that last spring start, was dropping that

904
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 2: knuckle curve, had eighteen swinging whiffs on that bad boy.

905
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 2: Everybody was popping through it. You're going into a much

906
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,799
Speaker 2: better pitching environment Herman Marquez is finally out of Colorado.

907
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 2: There's been some swing and miss stuff. He can go

908
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,320
Speaker 2: deeper into the game and the Giants have been whiffing.

909
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:34,320
Speaker 2: You are getting a nice low number of three and

910
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,880
Speaker 2: a half, so you're going four strikeouts on her Man

911
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:40,320
Speaker 2: Marquez here. I actually really really liked this one. Strikeout

912
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 2: props have been pretty tough early on. I feel like.

913
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 1: Everybody away from strikeouts early on because of the limitations

914
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 1: of the beginning.

915
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they've been like really really dicey as far

916
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 2: as like just how the numbers have been propped up.

917
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 2: But I really like this one. So Herman Marquez, that

918
00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 2: is my best bet.

919
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 1: And if you haven't joined hard Rock Bet, what are

920
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: you waiting for? New sign ups today can double their

921
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:01,240
Speaker 1: winnings on their first ten bets max of fifty dollars.

922
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: That means if you would want a hundred, that means

923
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 1: two hundred. See that's how doubling works. But you can't

Speaker 1: come on out here by the way stock to cousin Donnie,

945
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,239
Speaker 1: how is the food baby that lives inside of you?

946
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 1: Right now? After that sounds doing all right? Right now,

947
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:09,320
Speaker 1: she's doing all right. It was a little rough yesterday,

948
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 1: but she's much better.

949
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:16,000
Speaker 2: Eighteen inch half pastrami, half chicken palm with kettle chips.

950
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 2: We determined it was about four to five thousand calories.

951
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:20,280
Speaker 1: Like our child.

952
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 2: I know.

953
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,400
Speaker 1: I felt like, this is the guy that made this,

954
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,359
Speaker 1: is the guy that made that awful line that shake.

955
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:27,399
Speaker 1: This is a six year old.

956
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:29,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you guys want, by the way, you're welcome

957
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:31,880
Speaker 2: at the end of the shows, the stream ends. If

958
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 2: our boys want to put the video. I did a

959
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 2: little breakdown. Donnie filmed of the shake. We tried to

960
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 2: do all this stuff, but that you didn't just finish

961
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 2: this sandwich. Donnie finished this five thousand calorie monstrasse. Had

962
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:48,600
Speaker 2: to be thirty minutes, put it down thirty five. He

963
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 2: told me about thirty five. I would have looked like

964
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 2: the person that could do it. It was not but.

965
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 1: Joe, definitely, I've seen Donnie eat my whole life. It is.

966
00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 1: It is a spectacular thing, and it wasn't worthy venture ended.

967
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 2: I don't know that's what I was gonna say last

968
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:03,799
Speaker 2: that wasn't Donnie's highlight of.

969
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 1: The now well, I think the highlight was escaping the

970
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 1: law because my cousin does drive very fast, but he

971
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:13,880
Speaker 1: didn't get over. But getting pulled over for that apparently

972
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,720
Speaker 1: almost we were like fifteen minutes away from the house.

973
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 1: We end up, you know, a little I'm sitting in

974
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 1: the back. All of a sudden, the little light's going

975
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 1: off and I'm like, oh my god, we're getting pulled over.

976
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,560
Speaker 1: He's actually going the speed limit. How can this possibly be?

977
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 1: And apparently your your year might tail light tail lights

978
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: and my license plate light were out unbeknownst to me.

979
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 1: Nobody knows.

980
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:38,719
Speaker 2: So, uh, this is a sheriff in full like tactical gear,

981
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 2: comes up, lights out, won't go through the whole thing.

982
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:42,520
Speaker 2: He's gone for a while.

983
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 1: Of course, he's suspicious of me in the back too. Yeah, yeah,

984
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 1: to open the back window. He's got the flashlight looking

985
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 1: at me because clearly I look like someone who but

986
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 1: the highlight probably you know, in some sort of organized

987
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 1: crime of something.

988
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 2: He was a little moody.

989
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 1: Uh.

990
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,839
Speaker 2: He finishes his stuff. He was very that he didn't

991
00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 2: want to say. He comes in and he gives Donnie warning,

992
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,280
Speaker 2: and Donnie's very appreciative of it. And then right before

993
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:05,560
Speaker 2: he leaves, he goes, uh, I want you to do

994
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 2: something for me. Turn off your lights to turn him

995
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 2: back on. Donnie does that, he goes, looks at the

996
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 2: back of the car, comes back and he goes, your

997
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:16,400
Speaker 2: lights are on, and then Donnie's confused, and then I

998
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 2: start bursting out laughing, realizing that this guy just didn't

999
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 2: have his lights on. And then Joe kind of on

1000
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:27,919
Speaker 2: the front, wasn't on the cop then looks, he looks

1001
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 2: at me, seeing me laugh, looks at Donnie, and he goes,

1002
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 2: have a good night and good luck for the next

1003
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,439
Speaker 2: five minutes driving with these guys, and he walks off,

1004
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 2: and it was a mic drop moment. It was a

1005
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:38,600
