The Welsh is back with me to talk 9 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 1: to some baseball. The Peanuts and the Cracker Jacks are here, 10 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: and I'm very happy about that. So let's just get 11 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 1: right at it, the Welsh, because we've got a lot 12 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: to go to here today, and we'll start with Byron 13 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: bucks and returning to the lineup. Oh today on Thursday. 14 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: How's that going for you, buddy? 15 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 2: Oh hey, I was told he's done. I was told 16 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 2: he's gone. It's over. Byron Buxton season way past us. All. 17 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 2: Are you telling me that Byron Buckson is back today? 18 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 1: That's what they're saying today? Oh today? 19 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 2: Okay, then I'm back in the studio. As I told you, 20 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 2: I was held up in the secret bunker yesterday until 21 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 2: Buckson returned to the lineup. I'm back in the main studio. 22 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: Maybe have Byron Buckson on some picks today, Joey. 23 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: Coincidence, I think not. You all your tinfoil hats aside. 24 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: You can make of it what you will. Bucks, it's 25 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: back while she's out of the bunker. These two things 26 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 1: did happen. Let's talk about something that also happened, which 27 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: is Showy Otani. I'm glad I made an early wager 28 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: on him for MVP again back to back, because yesterday 29 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: he flirted with perfection. 30 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 2: I was. 31 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: I was not into him against the Astros in all 32 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 1: fairness yesterday it's a DFS pick. He was a little 33 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: high in terms of price, tough lineup still kind of 34 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: like I don't think I feel like that, But you 35 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: know what, I was totally wrong. I'll take the l 36 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: on that one because he struck out twelve guys there. 37 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: Oh when he drove in two runs too, because he's 38 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: showing up to big. 39 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 2: Did you also hear that they said they're like, we 40 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 2: weren't taking him out regardless of what was going on, 41 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: like perfect game intact, he was going to keep going 42 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: and then unfortunately he gave up. 43 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: Ye okay, Aaron is trolling you, he says, Buckston. Oh 44 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: for four day, Welsh, I think can stop your your 45 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: happiness today. I don't don't think anything can break it. 46 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 2: Bucks's back, Buxton's back. So we're in it. We're in it, 47 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 2: oh for four I don't think so. 48 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: All right. Seattle's Logan Gilbert, who was the pitcher we 49 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: were on yesterday Blanks the Rangers for six and two thirds. 50 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: He looked great again. You know, we talked so much 51 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: about Gilbert in this offseason of being one of these 52 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: guys that might be able to take that next leap forward. 53 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: You were very bullish on Logan Gilbert. It's very encouraging 54 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: to see him start off the year so strong. Welsh. 55 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think it was like last year. 56 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 2: I had said I thought he was the number one 57 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 2: pitching prospect in the miners, and he's just got a 58 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 2: flurry of good pitches that he commands across the zone. 59 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 2: You know, we're seeing a lot of guys that have 60 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 2: been able to take advantage of this like plus command 61 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 2: and being able to you know, hit both sides and tops, 62 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 2: you know, vertical and horizontal parts of the zone, and 63 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 2: like Joe Ryan some what we're gonna talk about Todays 64 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 2: had a lot of success doing that, and Gilbert finds 65 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 2: a lot of success doing that. He's a big, big, 66 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 2: tall guy, and when his pitches are on and his 67 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 2: command is on, it's big numbers, and you're starting to 68 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 2: see it. I'm very excited. I really think, legit, Logan 69 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 2: Gilbert could be the guy in this rotation. And I'm 70 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: saying that with Robby Ray there. Really I don't know 71 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 2: if it can happen this year, but I think he 72 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 2: can be the guy. 73 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, or at least two one A's here's a great 74 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: one from I think it's lomer boy. I'm reading that correctly. 75 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: Is there a chance that Otani wins MVP and cy Young? 76 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: I haven't seen this wager out there yet. I don't 77 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: think it's impossible because of the way the American League 78 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: pitching is structured right now. Garrett Cole certainly doesn't like that. Dude, 79 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: I've already got my investment in Verlander. But you think 80 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: about what's left. It's Bieber. Can he hold up? I mean, 81 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: a continues to make starts like this, you know, Robbie 82 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: Ray's gonna repeat. I don't know about that. It's it's 83 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: not a crazy thing. And if somebody's gonna put a 84 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: wager if bet MGM's gonna put that out there. I 85 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: want to see those odds because I'm kind of curious 86 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: what they are. If they're like seven and a half 87 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: or nine to want somewhere in that range. I would 88 00:03:59,200 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: bet on that. 89 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: If he were to get what did he get last year, 90 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: like one hundred and thirty innings, one hundred and forty thirty. 91 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: I want to say you can double check that if. 92 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 2: He were to push one fifty and fine and not 93 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 2: have those like blow up ones that he does, you know, 94 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 2: because they'll have that one game where he goes, you know, 95 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 2: two innings, gives up eight. If he kind of maintains 96 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 2: that's a good point, I can't imagine it would just 97 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 2: rip the soul out of all the writers to have 98 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 2: to like give both awards to one player. I feel 99 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 2: like there's always makeup stuff that happens with him. I 100 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 2: can't see them wanting to do that, But I mean, 101 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 2: I would probably take that bet at this point simply 102 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 2: because of what you're talking about with the Ale pitchers. 103 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 2: It's just overall top end pitching has sucked, and Otani 104 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: if he does pulls and strings up a few more 105 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 2: of those and keeps up hitting. Yeah, definite possibility. 106 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: Well, Gilito was another guy. He's already on anil. 107 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 2: That's my guy. But he does come back Sunday. He 108 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 2: comes back Sunday. 109 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying it's you know, already when we're 110 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: talking about innings numbers and things like that, Otani, for me, 111 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: the number would have to be one sick the issue 112 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: to get into that comment. 113 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 2: Really see, I think I think if you get one fifty, 114 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 2: you got to get like eighty percent of what he 115 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 2: was as a hitter, and then I think you've got 116 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 2: a I mean, you're not gonna do a six perfect 117 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 2: or anything like that. But you know, he's got to 118 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 2: touch crazy K numbers. He's got to touch two hundred strikeouts. 119 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: Or he always touches crazy K numbers. That's the one 120 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: thing he's got going for him. So it's just can 121 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: he keep the elra in a good place. That's I mean, that. 122 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 2: Would be a good The bottom line is is that's 123 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 2: an interesting one that you put probably like you know, 124 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 2: a quarter of a unit or something like that, or 125 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 2: if you play low units, you know, if you're gonna 126 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 2: like twenty five bucks or something you want to throw 127 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 2: twenty dollars on it for the hell of it. You 128 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 2: should get really good odds. I would suspect on a 129 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 2: dual MVP Cy Young Award winning. 130 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: I have Atani at plus three and a half right 131 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 1: now for MVP MVP. 132 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 2: What is say, what does Cy Young look like? 133 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: That's a good question. I'll take a look at that 134 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: when we run through these next things. Work in the meantime, 135 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: Sandy al Contra goes eight score less, takes a no 136 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: decision No One. Arnaudoso loves to go ahead Homer and 137 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: the ninth draw. There, Mackenzie Gore picked up his first 138 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: major league win. Congratulations for you. Mackenzie was a good 139 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: outing for him across five innings of work. And the 140 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: Padres won six nothing against the Reds. It was just 141 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: the Reds, but still, and Joey Votto continues to struggle. 142 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 1: Jose Ramirez blasted a grand slam. Boy. Nothing is stop 143 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: this guy. I told you this is you know. I 144 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: had Louis Roberts the long shot for MVP, but maybe 145 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: Jose Ramirez on this two looks like he's in another 146 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: universe right now. A lot of injuries to get to 147 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: Also today, Welsh. Unfortunately, Astro's placed Altuve on the ten 148 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 1: day IL we knew that was coming. Jadi Martinez not 149 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: likely to play Thursday. He's doing with a groin issue. 150 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: Keep an eye on that. And Josh Bell heading for 151 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: an MRI exam on his knee and George Springer good 152 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: news X rays negative on the forearm. Josh Bell, that's 153 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: a piece that you know, the Nats really can't afford 154 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: to lose in the middle of this lineup because it's Sodo, 155 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: it's Cruise, and then I don't know what the hell 156 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: else they can throw out there, So this is kind 157 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: of important for that. NAT's one you gotta gotta keep 158 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: an eye on that, don't you think. 159 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I completely agree with that. That team, like I 160 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 2: said in the off season, they're doing that weird thing 161 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,679 Speaker 2: where it's kind of like, you know, they're they should 162 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 2: be rebuilding, but they're not, and they're spending some money, 163 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 2: so they have got to be at the top peak performance. 164 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 2: They can't afford, you know, any of this nonsense to 165 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: happen to them. 166 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: Did you find the cy Young odds because I haven't 167 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: known here now I can no, no, please, I've been 168 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: looking for them, right here. Let's see that's National league. 169 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: Let's go to the American League. Say Young Shoeotani fifteen 170 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: to one right now, So. 171 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 2: I mean, if you got three to one on MVP, 172 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 2: fifteen to one on Cy Young, they got to give 173 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 2: you like thirty to one to lockdown both, right, at 174 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 2: least thirty to one, I guess. But they can't just 175 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 2: add them up. They can't give you eighteen to one 176 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 2: for both. That's ridiculous. That's gotta be. 177 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: It's heard that. I just think that he's such a 178 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: he's so far it advanced for MVP because what he does. 179 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: Look that number, by the way, on fandals going to 180 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: two sixty, it was three fifteen hours two sixty, So 181 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: that's moved into the beginning of the season already, and 182 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: I think it's going. The only reason, once again, one 183 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: it didn't start out as a minus number is because 184 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: he's a picture and because the minute he has an 185 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: armed problem, it crushes him and it takes him out 186 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: of the running, and his injury quotient goes up significantly higher. 187 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: So he's a far riskier play, which is why he's 188 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: a fun investment for MVP, because he is the undoubted 189 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 1: favorite and the odds should be mindus of us to 190 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: start the year. You know, another guy we didn't talk about, 191 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: Dylan Cees, that he deserves a little bit of love 192 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: in this conversation too, because he's been excellent to start 193 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: the season. 194 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 2: Also, I mean, has been a massive strikeout option. He's 195 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 2: one of those guys that was ready to take the 196 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 2: big jump that that kind of like I don't want 197 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 2: to call them the middle tier of pictures because they're not, 198 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 2: but I'm saying middle of like that first round where 199 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 2: it's like, you know, fifty sixties, seventies and that type 200 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 2: of range, you're outside of your aces. Those guys have 201 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 2: kind of shined. There's been more of a shine on 202 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:49,839 Speaker 2: them than there have been the top end, where like 203 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 2: Joe Musgrove is flying up board, Shane McClanahan leader in 204 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 2: MLB and CSW percentage right now. And then you've got guys, 205 00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 2: all these. 206 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: Guys, these exactly the pictures we just manoah, all the 207 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: guys that we talked about the entire offseason saying, fade 208 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: the top of pitching, Fade the top of pitching. It's 209 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: just not worth the risk or the investment. And if 210 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: he did that, so far, it's been good. Giliito another 211 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: one of those guys. 212 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 2: But it's like the dream. It's the dream of pitching 213 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 2: is to fade the top end. The only other thing 214 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 2: I wanted to add on the Otani front. I'm actually 215 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 2: really surprised that you're not seeing books jump in right 216 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 2: now because it's kind of a fun wager to throw 217 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 2: in and then take it off later. Like, this isn't 218 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 2: a bet that they're going to put up in July 219 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 2: when he's got you know, he's second in strikeouts in 220 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 2: the league, he's got the third best ra and do 221 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:37,839 Speaker 2: it now. 222 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: I think they might put it up there, because once 223 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 1: the juice goes minus on Otani for MVP, the action stops. 224 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 1: So how do you ignite the action again? You create 225 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: a new betting pool for Hey, what about the combo 226 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: boys and girls? What do you think about this one? 227 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: What if he wins both? That to me is well 228 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 1: exactly what they're going to do, and I would look 229 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 1: for it right before they all start. Interesting, that's actually 230 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: what's going to be so difference of opinion, but both 231 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: very interesting. Let's go to Joe's Tough Guys. Trevor story 232 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: got beamed last night in the melon, but he stayed 233 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 1: in the game. I saw this happen live as it happened, 234 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: and I was very afraid for Trevor Story. Was watching 235 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: this game actually when it did, because I got frustrated 236 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: watching Carlos for don destroy the Mets, so I flipped 237 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 1: over and I saw MLB had the red Sox. I 238 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: was watching that and Trevor Story got nailed, and he's 239 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: somehow convinced everybody to stay in the game, which I 240 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: was shocked that they let him. Usually it's like, guys, yeah, 241 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: you get hit in the head, you gotta go through 242 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,839 Speaker 1: the protocols. But I don't know, so good for you, 243 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 1: Trevor Story to also tough guy? How about this one? 244 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 1: Welsh the gel Cabrera, when asked about being one hit 245 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 1: away from three thousand, he said, who the f cares 246 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 1: we lost? When has this game ever been fun about 247 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: individual accomplishments? That's from Michel Cabrera. That's a tough guy 248 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: right there. 249 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 2: You like that is very tough. That's the hard. Oh 250 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 2: thing I'm gonna go back to. That's the Welsh hardo. 251 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,559 Speaker 2: That's the being like who cares that? The whole we 252 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: don't care about individual accomplishments. It's like, all right, buddy, 253 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 2: are you okay in August? 254 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: In August, when I'm at knee deep in football and 255 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,959 Speaker 1: you're hosting this show, that you could change it to 256 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: Welsh's heart Os, you could absolutely. 257 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 2: Change Oh okay, and then it'll be allowed. 258 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,559 Speaker 1: Then it'll be allowed then, because then if I have 259 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: no responsibilities at that point, can we talk about this 260 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: Carlos Rodon It's been really good, so I got frustrated 261 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: with him. But twenty nine strikeouts here, most by a 262 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: pitcher in their first three starts for the Giants in 263 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 1: quite some time. This is a I mean, he looked great, 264 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: He looked completely in control. Do you think there is 265 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: any world where Carlos Rodin can just shred that injury 266 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: prone label and make an advance and become one of 267 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: these guys that becomes a reliable picture in real life 268 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:43,079 Speaker 1: and fantasy. 269 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'm the worst person to ask about 270 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,719 Speaker 2: that because I'm so defunct about injuries. But I do 271 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 2: present you with a cheap plug alert. On the end 272 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 2: of this League Fantasy Baseball podcast today, we had mister 273 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 2: Nick Pollock of Pictureless and this becomes a really big 274 00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 2: piece of conversation actually is Carlos redon and to pull 275 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 2: out yesterday I agree, like the wellshart overs is joeyp uh. 276 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 2: We put out a poll yesterday of Carlos Dan versus 277 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 2: Shane McClanahan. These were two guys that were both are 278 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 2: both currently top five in swinging strike percentage and top 279 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 2: five in CSW percentage. And these guys are absolutely dominating. 280 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 2: And you literally have this like debate of canra Dawn 281 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 2: stay healthy versus a young pitcher in a raise, you know, 282 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 2: a rotation and how much do they really unleash the guy? 283 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 2: And at the end of the day you can go 284 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 2: here and extended conversation about it, I believe, and I can't. 285 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 2: I can't process and work out of a world where 286 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 2: I'm taking this guy and I'm like, he's just gonna 287 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 2: get hurt. He's just gonna get hurt. He can't be 288 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 2: this good because I mean, I think you can have 289 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 2: a factor of that in But if your default process 290 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 2: of him in conversation is well, yeah, he's not gonna 291 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 2: last and he's gonna get hurt, then I don't know 292 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: what to tell you. Is he is he at a 293 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 2: peak of trading right now? Maybe, but I still believe 294 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 2: so many people are working off of you will get hurt. 295 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,079 Speaker 2: He can't stay healthy. He's putting up ridiculously phenomenal numbers 296 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 2: in a system or a team that takes care of 297 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 2: pictures well, in a division that works really well for him. 298 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 2: I think this is a potential guy. Nick Pollock, I 299 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 2: would give one teaser on the show, said if he 300 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 2: were to play the rest of the season, would be 301 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 2: a top three overall pitcher. So that's where we are. 302 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: I think he's more valuable to the team that drafted 303 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: him right now because I don't think the trade market's 304 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: going to do way to say it, Yes, it's he's 305 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: more valuable to you who have him already, because I'm 306 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: telling you the open market is not going to bear 307 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: the value you think because everyone's too afraid. That is 308 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: such a ride the wave. 309 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 2: That is such an important thing that you say that. 310 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,959 Speaker 2: I sometimes I can articulate and sometimes I can't. But 311 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 2: that statement right there, I think holds true to so 312 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 2: much a fantasy that a player can just be more 313 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 2: valuable to the drafted person than it is in a 314 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 2: trade market or a bye of those guys, even if. 315 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: He's still more valuable to you who drafted him, probably 316 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: because the market doesn't always yield the returns you think 317 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: on players like this, because there's so much to me. 318 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: Let's get yeah, I mean, I agree, you're in with 319 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 1: the Welsh he doesn't have bucks, and then maybe. 320 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 2: You if you're in a league with me. It's one 321 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 2: of those two things. It's if I own him, you're right, 322 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 2: there's no value in trading him because I won't and 323 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 2: the market is hot if you're in the league with 324 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 2: me if I don't have him, because then you can 325 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 2: send them to me. 326 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: There you go. By the way, if you want to 327 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: be a peanut and a cracker jack, make sure you're 328 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: watching this show live. Jesse Ell says we need Welsh's 329 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 1: hardos merch. I'm sure you can get that. I'm sure 330 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: Welsh's only fans have that art. 331 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 2: I can only imagine. 332 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: Uh, the DFS slate is really like tonight, So we're 333 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: just gonna breeze through that later in the show. But 334 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 1: instead I wanted to to bring up some fun facts 335 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: because everybody likes some fun facts. And you know, yesterday 336 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: we kind of look at some individual players, so I 337 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: thought today it'd be fun to look at some team 338 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: numbers and some team stats. Right now, right now, these 339 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: are the top five six ish offenses in baseball. You 340 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: got the Los Angeles Angels, no surprise, they are, especially 341 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: Tommy being fantastic. They've got sixteen homers already. The Angels. 342 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: The Dodgers, duh, right there, right after them, They've got 343 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: eleven homers, sixty four runs the Angels have scored sixty five. 344 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: Cleveland the Guardians at sixty two runs scored. That's third 345 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: best in the league. Then the Rockies against the Rockies 346 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: Grant AsSalt but still sixty two. 347 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 2: That's wow. 348 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: That's surprising. The Mets at sixty one a little surprising, 349 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: and the Padres at sixty one. So the Cleveland one's 350 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: the one I want to talk about because I think, 351 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: you know, this was a team that we went into 352 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: it going wow, it's pretty much Joser Ramirez and everybody else. Now, 353 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: Owen Miller went on the il Franvill's had a slow 354 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: start to the season, but you think Cleveland can can 355 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: kind of keep this pace up at all? 356 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, I do, And I'm not sure I would 357 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 2: have said that preseason because of Miles Straw, a table 358 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 2: setter at the top because of that high end contact 359 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 2: that Stephen Kwan provides. It is contingent on Jose Ramirez. 360 00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 2: But Jose Ramirez has picked up the team. I mean, 361 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 2: those sixty two runs scored, I'm gonna guess like sixty 362 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 2: of them were Jose Ramirez at this point, He's unreal. 363 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 2: Two Grand Slams to start the year. What the positive 364 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 2: this team has going for them is as Jose Ramirez 365 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 2: comes down, you know, to earth a little bit freand 366 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 2: no Reys is going to pick it back up. He 367 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 2: looks cold as ice right now. I mean, my bold 368 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 2: predition couldn't be look worse right now because this is 369 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: not his Guy's not built for any type of cold weather. 370 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 2: This is a warm weather, big boppin' hitting guy, a 371 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 2: little bit streaky, and he can pick up some of 372 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 2: the slack. I also think this team is going to 373 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 2: be involved in the trade market, you know. I mean 374 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 2: they've hit a little bit of gold with Owen Miller. 375 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 2: I'm at Rosario has put up great underlining stats, which 376 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 2: I'm just telling you just wait till he starts to unleash. 377 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 2: I think I think there's a matter of time before 378 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 2: he starts really really popping and They've got a lot 379 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 2: of the pieces that might only be one or two 380 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 2: pieces away in the trade market. So I actually think 381 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 2: the Guardians are going to be able to maintain this 382 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 2: throughout the year with the type of players that they have. Well, 383 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 2: it's a very well constructed team that's just missing like 384 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 2: one or two other solid players to build around. 385 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: Now. Of course, the Penuts and the Crackerjacks. Mister Buster 386 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 1: has a trade alert for US. Welsh receives Byron Buxton. 387 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 1: Mike Mayer receives Ryan Mountcastle and a shocking Fantasy Pros 388 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: one for one deal, so. 389 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 2: I could see excellent. 390 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 1: I think that he probably would. On the other side. 391 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,160 Speaker 1: Let's talk about some pitching notes here. The Giants, of course, 392 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: with Rodn and Webb at the top, yere in Vra 393 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 1: at two three three overalls of staff, the Dodgers right 394 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: behind them at two three eight, and the New York 395 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 1: Yankees believe it or not, De Spike Gerrett Cole struggles 396 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 1: between nestro Cotz and Savbrino giving them some good starts 397 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: two five to two. The Mets, no surprise, two five six. 398 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 1: Their pitching has been fantastic. Last night was the first 399 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,719 Speaker 1: bad start for bast he's had all year. And then 400 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: the Baltimore Orioles at two five seven, that's the one 401 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: I want to talk about. 402 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 2: Holy crap. 403 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: So Jordan Lyles one earned run on April fifteenth against 404 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: the Yankees. Then Tyler Wells on the sixteenth, zero earned runs, 405 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:59,719 Speaker 1: four innings, Bruce Zimmerman, who I mean what five innings, 406 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 1: no earned runs, Spencer Watkins who spells his name with 407 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,719 Speaker 1: an S, not even a C. I know that's all 408 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: about against Oakland, one earned run, five innings, Chris Ellis, 409 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 1: no earned runs. Now, look, I know it's against Oakland, 410 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 1: and I know though the Yankees could be a little 411 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: feast or famine. And then go back to Jordan Lyles 412 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 1: again today. Oh yes, I said yesterday no earned runs. 413 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: What in the hell is going on in Baltimore, Welsh? 414 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,640 Speaker 1: Is this a matter of you know, I know three 415 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: of those games were in Baltimore with the new look 416 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: Camden Yards, but still, what is this just like a 417 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: strange anomaly or you think there's something to. 418 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 2: Do something, Well, it's an anomaly. Let's not let's not 419 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 2: even try to like bake around anything else. It's an anomaly. 420 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 2: But the Baltimore Orioles have really really changed the way 421 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 2: that they approach pitching, very high end analytical organization. On 422 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 2: the prospects side, the way that they're developing guys is 423 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 2: really really popping. I mean, they've got some incredible finds 424 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 2: and Grayson Rodriguez and DL Hall, who are you going 425 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 2: to be there sooner rather than later? Probably Grayson Rodriguez 426 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,919 Speaker 2: would be the next big prospect up I kind of assume, 427 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 2: but you know, it's not going to just be in 428 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 2: the minors. They're going to take a lot of the 429 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 2: high end analytical approaches of you know, actually paying attention 430 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 2: to the underlining stats. I'm assuming. I actually got to 431 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,439 Speaker 2: spend some time on the hitting side with Tim Gibbons, 432 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 2: who was a Triple A manager and was with the 433 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 2: AFL out here and talk about the team and how 434 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 2: their approach is very personal guy and the team as 435 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 2: a whole is just they are diving in to see 436 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 2: what can they unearth from these players, and you're seeing 437 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 2: that happen. So you know, this is pure speculation, but 438 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 2: with how they've been treating their minor leaguers, you've probably 439 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,360 Speaker 2: got coaches that are sitting out there they're looking at, 440 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 2: you know, vertical drop on pitches. They're looking at every little, 441 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 2: you know, pitch mix, they're looking at swing strike percentage, 442 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 2: they're looking at every single way that they can tap 443 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 2: into these players that I don't know who Spencer Watkins 444 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 2: is like Spencer Spencer. Spencer with an S is not 445 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 2: someone we're familiar with. But you know, you can game 446 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 2: plan in base It's not just a feel between a 447 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 2: catcher and a pitcher. A team can go in and 448 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 2: they can say, we don't want you to throw a 449 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 2: lot of this pitch. We want you to attack this 450 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 2: area of the zone. This is your strength. This team 451 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 2: struggles against sliders. And I think that's a lot of 452 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 2: big game planning where you know, there's not all big 453 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 2: game planning in baseball, as much as we want to 454 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 2: believe professional sports do that. And I think Baltimore is 455 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 2: doing that right there. That's pear speculation here, but I 456 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 2: don't think it's gonna last. It's Baltimore. Spencer has an 457 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:29,880 Speaker 2: Essen either, that's not gonna hold. 458 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: I don't either. I think it's the Yankees are just 459 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 1: up and down in Oakland's drugton No offensively so, but 460 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 1: it is fun. It's fun to think about and look 461 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 1: early trends when it comes to wagering and dfs very important, 462 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: or even sending your lineups and fantasy on daily basis too. 463 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: And you're looking for some streaming pitchers right now. Jordan 464 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 1: Lyles sure is out there and he's probably helping somebody's 465 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 1: era today in baseball history, nineteen ninety four Indians at 466 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: the time was the Indians now the Guardians first Basement. 467 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: Eddie Murray hits home runs from both sides of the 468 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: plate in a game for the eleventh time in his 469 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 1: career to bring Mickey Mantle's record to home also moved 470 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: Murray past Dave Kingman for twentieth all time Welsh Murray 471 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 1: was one of the great switch hitters we've ever seen. 472 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: Is switch hitting just not a thing anymore? I mean, 473 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,400 Speaker 1: there's so few guys that do it. In the eighties 474 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 1: and even into the nineties, it was such an attribute 475 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: to have. Now it just seems like, I don't know, 476 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: like nobody really kind of cares that the specialization really's 477 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: moved in. But I remember a time where switch hitters 478 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 1: were abundant. It doesn't seem like that that art form 479 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 1: is going to come. 480 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 2: Back any remember, Like to Shara, like to Shaa. He 481 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 2: was one of like the biggest so many process for 482 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 2: Joe World and money. Yeah, I think if I remember correctly, 483 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 2: I could be saying this wrong. Someone can correct me. 484 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 1: They will. 485 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,400 Speaker 2: I think Cedric Mullins was a switch hitter and didn't 486 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,400 Speaker 2: he stop this like past year or two. 487 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: Don't know, I know that for sure. Maybe the peanuts. No, 488 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: I feel it's a crack attack. Drop it. 489 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 2: I feel like that's what it was. But to your point, 490 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 2: I think you know, at the end of the day, 491 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 2: what people have seen is if a guy is going 492 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 2: to tap into his power, they want to come off. 493 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 2: They want to come off of switch hitting, and they 494 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 2: want the guys to focus Okay, yeah it was on Mullens. 495 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 2: They want to focus on the strength of that power side. 496 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 2: The switch hitters, I think the majority that you're gonna 497 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 2: see into the future, they're gonna be players that are 498 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 2: just built around contact, you know, that aren't trying to 499 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 2: tap into you know, bigger pieces of power, and you 500 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 2: know it's gonna have to have not big struggles. I think, 501 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 2: for an instance like Mullins, that one side he really 502 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 2: struggled with contact on it. So yeah, it's it's the 503 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 2: maturation of baseball, taking away things that don't make sense anymore. 504 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 2: There'll be no shifts, there'll be no switch you know, 505 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 2: there'll be none of it at the end of the day. 506 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: All right. 507 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 2: Uh. 508 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: There will also be no other catcher ever for the 509 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 1: Cardinals besides YadA Malina. YadA your Molina and Adam Wainwright 510 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: are now in sole possession of third place in Major 511 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: League Baseball history three hundred and seven games together. That's 512 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: that's an impressive eyelight there for both of those guys. 513 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: Now it'll trivia question. I'm sure everyone's gonna run to 514 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: the Google machine. Who's ahead of them? Now Welsh knows 515 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: the answer, Yeah, to the show sheet, which you know, 516 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: usually Welsh doesn't, but for this show he does. 517 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 2: But boy, these names are gonna be real easy for 518 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 2: everybody to pick them. 519 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, I will give you a hint there if you 520 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 1: could at least give the picture. I mean, that's the 521 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: whole thing. Yea. The pitchers. You gotta think guys who 522 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: were just pitchers for a team for a very long time. 523 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 1: And of course it's it's more in the fifties and 524 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 1: sixties era of baseball. 525 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 2: Thanks World War to check that out. 526 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you know what, the one that came to 527 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: mind for me at first, I was like, I wonder 528 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 1: if it's Whitey Ford and Yogi Berra it is not. 529 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: So if you got guesses, go ahead drop him in 530 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: the chat here over on our MLB channel here Fantasy Pros. 531 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 1: In the meantime, we'll come back to that. We'll run 532 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: through some of the heroes we already talked about. Otani Rodono, Alcntra, 533 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: Brandon Woodrow, nice bounce back nine case for him, that's 534 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: what we want. Eleven shutout innings since that seven earned 535 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 1: runs in that frigid Chicago air, Gilbert and Gore we 536 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 1: talked about. Tony Gonsolin, unsung hero, not a big strikeout guy, 537 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: has allowed one earned run though through thirteen innings, six 538 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: scoreless yesterday, Dalton Jefferies six scoreless as well five k's 539 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: and a loss of the Orioles, Daniel Lynch five k's, 540 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 1: excuse me, five innings, two k's and went over the twinkies, 541 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 1: So my twinkies stack did not work yesterday. Barrios six k's, 542 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: six innings for him, that was a much needed start 543 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: to he did at that one moment where you let 544 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 1: that ball get away from him, and I thought that 545 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 1: would be his undoing in that game because you could 546 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: see Brios obviously not want to hit story that ball 547 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: got away from him. But he did settle down there 548 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: now brought that era down to six three five. So 549 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: this was a big start last night against the Red 550 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 1: Sox for Barrios. You agree. 551 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 2: I agree. We talked about a little bit him on 552 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 2: that latest podcast as well with Nick Pollock. It's like 553 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 2: it's Nick had said, you know, Brios is kind of 554 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 2: like he always comes back to the same spot, whether 555 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 2: he's up or down or positive. But the really really 556 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 2: like early struggles with a picture like him have me 557 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 2: worried that it's going to be a big tumble so 558 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 2: for him to get back up. And also there's another reminder, 559 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 2: another reminder on a lot of these names that you've 560 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 2: put up here, small sample sizes, the amount of people 561 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 2: they're spinning their heads around, freaking out, like the Beatle 562 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 2: jew about one guy struggling in one start. Take a breath, man, 563 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 2: we're still in April. All of these things can adjust. 564 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 2: People are probably cutting Brios after his start to the season. 565 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 2: It'll be okay, just chill out, you know, maybe bench 566 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 2: he'll be. 567 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: All right, all right. Stat Hero hitters he had Carmago 568 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,479 Speaker 1: going one excuse me, four for five with a home run, 569 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 1: Cassianos went yard three for four, Anthony Rizzo home run. 570 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: Freddie Freeman's been excellent. He had a home run three 571 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,880 Speaker 1: for four. Jerkson Profar, who I picked up last week 572 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: on a lark man. I threw him in my lineup 573 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: as a second utility guy. He's been great. Stolen base 574 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: home run for him. Kyle Schwarber has been red hot, 575 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: Alec Boom another home run for him, Dalton Varshow with 576 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 1: a dinger, and Rommel Tapia one for five, had a homer, 577 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 1: a stolen base. Stat zero's Jacob Deerzi not a good 578 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 1: star for him. Six runs and two thirds of an inning, 579 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 1: so that was pretty short. There is HER's up to nine. 580 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: Start picking up Christian Javier everybody ever, come on, let's 581 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,360 Speaker 1: go go get him. It's only a matter of time. 582 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: Do it. Now, you should draft him in the first place. 583 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: Five earned runs. It is dude, that throw smoke. Dallas 584 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 1: Kichel said, Hey, Jacob DEREIZI you ain't see nothing yet. 585 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: How about eight earned runs in one inning? So pretty 586 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,479 Speaker 1: stunning there and that loss to the Guardians. Marcus Stroman 587 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: has struggled for the Cubs. Seven earned runs for him, 588 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: and Chris Basst just didn't have good stuff yesterday. You 589 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 1: got in trouble in the first inning, got away from him. 590 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,360 Speaker 1: It was a couple of bloops, a couple of weird things, 591 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 1: one hard hit ball. Don't panic. Chris bass has been 592 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 1: excellent on the hitting side. I want to run through 593 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: these Welsh Joe Adell forty five percent strikeout rate, Julio 594 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,399 Speaker 1: forty one point nine percent strike out Ray Dansby sponts 595 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 1: In forty one another bad night for Jared kellnick over 596 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: three to three k's. What do you make of these 597 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: young kids right now? I mean, are they just not 598 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: ready for prime time? Or do you think you just 599 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: continue to be patient? 600 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 2: I mean the Joe Adell one is the one you 601 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 2: worry about, like, how many parts of seasons do you 602 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 2: need to be in before you cannot strike out over 603 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 2: thirty percent of time? Julio's getting squeezed. It's pretty been 604 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 2: pretty popular on Fantasy Baseball Twitter, but you can go 605 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 2: and look at a lot of is called strikeout. You 606 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,919 Speaker 2: know his chart, and I mean he's getting squeezed outside 607 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 2: the zone like crazy. Kelnick and and Adele are both 608 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 2: a little bit of a worry. Kelnick is starting to 609 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 2: find a little bit of rhythm. But I think you're 610 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 2: seeing a little bit more of what those guys are. 611 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 2: Julio Rodriguez is not going to be a thirty plus 612 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 2: strikeout guy. I'm not worried about that. Uh, it's very 613 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,120 Speaker 2: early on. But like you said, a lot of these 614 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 2: young guys got pushed up, maybe more than they would before. 615 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 2: Three months ago, four months ago. I literally chastise you 616 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 2: if you were taking Julio Rodriguez because I'm like, why 617 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 2: Mariners are not going to do this? They did it, 618 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 2: It's not going so well. It's also why I do 619 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 2: not invest heavily in young guys in redraft. Just never 620 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 2: do a pitching or hitting. Obviously, I'm a prospect guy. 621 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 2: Love him in Dynasty, that's the play, but I'm not 622 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 2: a big young guy investor. 623 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: Only one word, only one for me, and his name 624 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: is Hunter Green. That was the guy invested in so far. 625 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 1: Fingers crossed, I mean Bobby came for the trivia question. 626 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: The picture the picture. One of the pictures was from 627 00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: the Detroit Tigers, number one overall and the second guy 628 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 1: at three hundred and sixteen games started together with this 629 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: catcher was with the Boston and Milwaukee Braves. So there's 630 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: your hint there. 631 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 2: There's no way anyone gets any of these in lists. 632 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 1: They're gonna get it with. 633 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 2: Someone's gonna post it in and they're gonna be like, hey, 634 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 2: it's this guy and this guy, and it's like a cheater. 635 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:17,959 Speaker 1: In the meantime, how about this.

That is the only 679 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 2: K prop. I really like it over four and a half, 680 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 2: and you have it on FANDAL.

So give me Suzuki, gimme Buxton, of course, 689 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 2: and give me the Joe Ryan k prop. 690 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: Look the slate here is all weird. Fanduels got a 691 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: three thirty start slate. DK's got a couple games you 692 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: can play, but they're not really sexy games. You got 693 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 1: the Texas Rangers in there. I want to talk about 694 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: Jordan Hicks because everybody wants to know she'd be streaming 695 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 1: Jordan Hicks today. He's five eight on DK. Would you 696 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: throw him against the Marlins today as a secondary arm 697 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: on DK? Because to me, that's what's whether you want 698 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: to make that jump or not. With Jordan Hicks, Can 699 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: he get a W because he kind of needs to, 700 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: I think basically, But I don't know if he's gonna 701 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 1: pitch that long. I don't think. 702 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 2: That's why I don't. My sole reason why I'm not 703 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 2: interested is I don't think he's in there to qualify 704 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 2: for a win. I could be wrong, as they've been 705 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 2: stretching him out. I just don't think he's gonna be 706 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 2: making it through. 707 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: We'd have to have everything break well for him. He'd 708 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: have to have like, you know, one or two really 709 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: efficient innings, like yeah, right right. The guy that I 710 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: do like is if you play FanDuel and that three 711 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: thirty slate play Paul Blackburn. He's been very good so far. 712 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: He's just seven to six. Nobody cares. Nobody likes the 713 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 1: A's clearly because nobody shows up to the games. They 714 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: had three thousand people the other night. We'll get to 715 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 1: that maybe tomorrow. But Paul Blackburn's seven point six. You 716 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: can go get whatever you want. Lineup builders on DK Hey, 717 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 1: if you want to take a shot on Julio, maybe 718 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 1: he gets hot today at two point eight. Nelson Cruz 719 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 1: on Fandel. I would lock in Nelson, Cruz and Soto 720 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: together with the Washington Stack and Paul Blackburn. That's how 721 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: I would approach FanDuel DFS tonight, let's call our home run. 722 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: I'm going with my boy Luis Robert. One of those 723 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: total bases, how about comes from a home run? So 724 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: give me Luis Robert, my dude, let's go.
